She is an excellent college professor with an impeccable record. She has had numerous works published. Her colleagues and the provost feel the university would not survive without her. She is well liked by her students. However, she has one major flaw. She has affairs with her male students and then poisons them.
Melly attends the University of Florida in Miami and currently she is dating Mark. It is now Monday and she has not heard from nor seen Mark since Thursday afternoon. Mark told her that day that he had to go to one of his classmate's dorm to study and do homework. Friday morning when they were suppose to meet for coffee before classes started, he didn't show up. Then Friday afternoon, they were suppose to meet in the lounge and he didn't show up. Melly also didn't recieve any phone calls from Mark which was highly unusual. Friday night, Melly phones Mark's roommate and he said that Mark didn't come to the room at all that night. She now suspects Mark is playing on her so she is furious with him. She decides on Saturday night to go out with her sorority sisters and get drunk.
Melly goes to the campus cafe again on Monday and does not see Mark. She is still angry with him. Melly then thinks she will show up where his accounting class is held and really give it to him. However when she is there, there is no sign of him. She knows she cannot miss her history class so she leaves and then comes back to speak to Mark's accounting professor and he tells her that Mark never showed up. She goes to his other classes and Mark never shows up. Melly phones Mark dorm and his roommate has not heard from Mark since Thursday. Melly is now worried so she phones Mark's parents who live in Clearwater, Florida and explains that no one has seen Mark since Thursday and he has not been to his classes. They tell her that they have not heard from him neither and that they will drive down there and see what is happening.
Melly now contacts the campus police who in turn mentions that most likely Mark did not disappear and probably just ditching his classes. This fact upsets Melly so she contacts her cousin, Rita about this just to have someone to speak to. Rita listens with a sympathetic ear and she is worried as well. Rita then states, I know someone who can help with this. Melly thanks her and then Rita phones Dexter.
