Answer: Tasha

Tasha Turischeva (aka Tasha Somova) was a Ukrainian bookkeeper from New York who was placed in Witness Protection (WITSEC) and relocated to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Tasha was played by Angela Sarafyan, who also appeared in episodes of "Judging Amy", "Buffy The Vampire Slayer", "The Division", and "24".

2. Who picked up Mary's sister, Brandi, from the station?

Answer: Raph

Mary asked her "boyfriend" Raph/Raphael to pick up her sister Brandi from the station and drive her home. However, Brandi, who was less than thrilled at having to ride home with Raph, proceeded to steal his vehicle when he left her alone in the truck.

3. Sienna Burke and Frankie Amato Jr. were found brutally murdered on a construction site in Albuquerque. They were both Mary's protected witnesses in WITSEC.

Answer: False

Frankie Amato Jr. (aka Frankie Santoro Jr.), along with his parents, Frankie Sr. and Felicia, had been Mary's witnesses in Albuquerque for 3 months before the murder. Sienna Burke, daughter of the owner of the land where the bodies were found, was not in Witness Protection.

4. Who made the following statement to Mary? "That's right. You're the branch of law enforcement that puts criminals back on the street, right?"

Answer: Bobby

Bobby Dershowitz, the lead detective on the murder case of the two teens, accused Mary of withholding information about her involvement in the investigation. She was unable to honestly answer many of his questions because WITSEC rules prevented her from disclosing information about her witness' former life.

5. While talking with Dershowitz at the murder scene, Mary noticed a group of young men on bikes watching from a distance. Where did she locate these young men?

Answer: Wild Horse Mesa

After cornering one of the young men in the men's restroom at the Wild Horse Mesa, Mary convinced him to answer her questions. He gave her background information on the disputed land, where Sienna and Frankie Jr.'s bodies were found.

6. What was the name of Sienna Burke's best friend?

Answer: Nicole

Nicole, played by Tammin Sursok, was at her job at the clothing store and had not been informed about Sienna's death when Mary arrived to ask her questions about Sienna. Mary had a hard time finding the words to tell her that her best friend had been murdered.
[Nicole]: "I can't believe she's dead."
[Mary]: "I'm so sorry."
[Nicole]: "And I can't believe you tried on clothes before telling me."
[Mary]: "Yeah. Again. I'm really sorry. I thought it would help ease into it. ... I can see now that was a mistake."

7. What was the reason for the party that Mary's less-than-stellar mother, Jinx, threw at Mary's house?

Answer: Mary's birthday

Jinx hosted the surprise party for Mary's birthday, although Mary had known about it from the beginning. Marshall had to convince Mary to even attend the party.
[Mary]: "I just want to wash the stench of this day off and go to bed."
[Marshall]: "I know. But there are about 60 people in there, hiding behind furniture, just waiting for you to open the door so they can jump up and yell 'Surprise'."
[Mary]: "Yuck."
[Marshall]: "Come on. It's your birthday. This isn't about you. Now get ready to act surprised."
[Mary]: "All right, all right."
[Marshall]: "That's my girl."

8. What gift did Stan finally decide to give to Mary?

Answer: $50 in a card

Stan bought Mary a couple of different gifts, but after being second-guessed by Marshall several times, he finally gave up and presented her with a $50 bill in a card.
[Stan]: "So did you get her [Mary] a birthday present?"
[Marshall]: "I'm working her case. You don't think that's enough?"
[Stan]: "Even you're not that dumb."
[Marshall]: "I'm smart enough to know you can't shop for Mary. What about you?"
[Stan]: "Oh. Well, I just got her a, uh, ... bottle of really expensive perfume."
[Marshall]: "Mary doesn't wear perfume."
[Stan]: "Yes, she does."
[Marshall]: "Uh-uh."
[Stan]: "You sure? I mean, she always smells so good."
[Marshall]: "That's just her."

9. Who came to Albuquerque to kill Frankie Santoro Sr. (aka Frankie Amato Sr.)?

Answer: Richie

Richie Mastro, son of Dominic Mastro, came to Albuquerque to kill Frankie Amato (aka Frankie Santoro Sr.) because Frankie had testified against Dominic, Frankie's mobster boss. Frankie Sr., Frankie Jr., and Felicia had entered WITSEC because Dominic, a big crime boss in New York, wanted him dead.

10. Brandi presented Mary with a necklace and pendant with a Native American symbol. Mary realized it was the same symbol that Sienna Burke had tattooed on her chest. Who did Mary and Marshall finally determine to be the murderer of Sienna and Frankie Jr.?

Answer: Kyle

Brandi explained to Mary that the symbol on the pendant means "may you sleep under the tall trees", which led Mary to initially believe that Edwin Talltrees had been having an affair with Sienna. However, after searching the house, Mary found a photo of Edwin's son Kyle, and realized that he had a tattoo identical to Sienna's on his chest. Kyle confessed that he had murdered Sienna and Frankie Jr. "So after spending almost their entire lives together, Sienna Burke broke up with Kyle because she couldn't tell her friends she was with an Indian.

She broke his heart, so he cut out hers." - Voice over by Mary
