But Walter isn't invulnerable: his sentimental fondness for Phyllis's stepdaughter combines with Phyllis's psychopathic greed to put him in a position where he is more the victim than the aggressor. Together they concoct a plan by which they can set up the husband's "accidental" death, collect $50,000 from his insurance company, and leave no evidence enabling the company to challenge the claim.
