* SelfMadeLie: "Minnow and the Shark" features two examples as the main culprits. One is Nadia Betts, the CEO of [=BestBetts=], a grocery store chain. Despite having inherited the company from her grandfather, Nadia insists she earned her position through merit, but one of her employees states that the company is making money ''in spite'' of her. The other is Douglas Hill, founder of Hill Breads who started out as just a humble baker before becoming the owner of the largest commercial bakery in Canada and is much closer to being an underdog who rose to the top than Nadia. However, the detectives' investigation reveals that Nadia and Douglas are engaged in a price-fixing scheme -- when one increases the prices of their goods, the other gains market share. Zoe Vaughn, the VictimOfTheWeek, discovered this and was trying to expose both of them, hence why they had her killed.
