Answer: A man whose family was murdered during the Army operation

After the defense council turned down a deal, Claire came home and was hit on the back of the head by a man the audience couldn't see. He told her that his family was murdered at Las Colinas by her husband. He threathened her to drop the deal when, luckily, Embry stopped by the house and scared the intruder away.

Answer: Ron had been trained to pass a polygraph test in case he was ever interrogated by the enemy.

Claire was told that Ron passed the polygraph which confirmed her belief that her husband was innocent. However, at the grocery store, an odd man tells her that he was asked to tell her how he trains soldiers to "beat the box." After she confronted Ron about it, he admitted he was trained to pass in case he was ever interrogated by the enemy.

He swore up and down he told the truth on that test and that he didn't have to try to pass because he was innocent.

Answer: hit and run, accidental drowning, mountain climbing fall

When Charlie stated that the three men had died by a hit and run, an accidental drowning, and a mountain climbing fall, the Colonel on the stand agreed that that "sounds right."

Answer: True

Charlie saw Embry going drinking with men from the other council one night. Claire and Charlie assumed Embry was being used as an inside link to their defense. When he arrived at her house after being at the club, Claire confronted him and then fired him. It turned out that Embry wasn't selling them out, but that a bug had been placed in Claire's house.

Answer: 483 days

He said he gave up 483 days of sobriety to get the confession which could prove that Ron was being set up. Unfortunately, the judge said the tape was inadmissable in court.

Answer: Hernandez was responsible for the bombing at Monteazul.

This only proved that the cover-up was a lot bigger than originally thought. Hernandez threw a bomb into a cafe to kill a rebel leader, but also killed three American students on accident.

Answer: She loses her baby.

The nurse told Claire after she woke up not to worry because she would have another baby. This is how Claire found out she was pregnant and that she lost the baby.

Answer: True

Charlie tracked down the wife of one of the murdered men formerly of Ron's unit and she said that the man who killed her husband tossed him gun between both hands like he was showing off. This is where Ron being ambidextrous came into play. Charlie also asked Claire to look up where Ron was on the two days those men were killed.

She realized he was in the same place on the same day those men were killed. How's that for a great twist?

Answer: Grimes and Grimaldi

Charlie first suggested the sign read Grimes and Kubik, but Claire refused. She then demanded that the sign had to say Grimes and Grimaldi, her maiden name.
