Helen Adamson (Designated Survivor)

Helen Adamson (Beth Littleford) is the villainess from "Three-Letter Day," episode 2.09 of Designated Survivor (airdate December 6, 2017). She is the wife of beekeeper Eddie Adamson.
The episode had Seth Wright and Lyor Boone sent to the Adamson home due to Eddie's concern over his bees dying. During their meeting, Eddie stated that the FAA had been killing their bees, with Helen at her husband's side backing his claim. As the episode progressed, a visit to FAA led Lyor to the truth: Helen killed the bees. 
Helen had been jealous of the attention that the bees received from Eddie, and seeing the bees as an obstacle in her marriage, the evil Helen set out on killing them, doing so by stealing the queen bee's royal jelly from the hive. Without the jelly, the queen couldn't lay eggs, leading to the larvae dying. The FAA's radar had already weakened the bees, giving Helen a scapegoat for her villainous actions.
As Lyor revealed, Helen killed two of the three colonies, and he showed Seth a jar of royal jelly from the home's cabinet. Later on, Seth and Lyor falsely informed the Adamsons that Helen put a stop to FAA's actions, but afterwards, Helen brashly admitted to killing the bees, doing so in response to Eddie confessing to poisoning her roses because they were drawing the bees away. The confessions led to an argument between husband and wife, which continued even after Seth and Lyor left.
