In Matlock episode 12, “This Is That Moment,” it’s the middle of the night, and as Edwin (Sam Anderson) sleeps, Matlock (Kathy Bates) bursts into the bedroom and says she found the email from Alfie’s (Aaron Harris) father. She accuses Edwin of lying to her. Edwin says he needed time to think just in case Alfie’s father wants custody. It’s just a nightmare, though. Edwin refuses to talk to Matlock about it.
