“What wife?” Simspon asks.
“The one you shot,” Cohen’s Monaldo says.
“Well, first of all, she wasn’t my wife,” Simpson replies. “We had been divorced. And second of all, I didn’t do it.”
“We want you to be completely truthful with how you got away with it,” Monaldo presses Simpson.
“Hey hey hey,” Simpson says. “I didn’t get away with nothing.”
It’s a painfully awkward interview during which Monaldo and Simpson laugh along to a bunch of dead wife and stabbing jokes.
“She’s gorgeous, but sometimes I want to kill her,” Gio says at one point referencing a woman playing his wife. “I want to send her on a private helicopter and throw her over the Grand Canyon—oopsie daisie!” He gives Simpson a high five, as Simpson says “stop,” ultimately laughing along.Â
It’s a deeply uncomfortable ending to a deeply uncomfortable show.
