Natalie Gale (Elementary)

Natalie Gale (Margaret Colin) is the main villainess from "Blood Is Thicker," episode 2.08 of Elementary (airdate November 14, 2013). 
== Events ==
Natalie Gale is the wife billionaire Ian Gale, but she had been planning to divorce him for 10 months. When Ian needed a heart transplant, however, Natalie devised an evil plan to kill him in order to receive 10 times more than she would in a divorce settlement. As part of the plan, Natalie convinced Ian to reach out to Haley Tyler, Ian's illegitimate daughter, who has the same rare blood type as Ian. Natalie, a retired doctor, gave Haley an injection and told her that it was for medical research. In actuality, Natalie was poisoning Haley's blood so it would also poison and eventually kill Ian when it was transfused to his body.
== Reveal & Arrest ==
In an earlier interrogation, Natalie stated that she gave up 20% of the inheritance to Haley, making the claim in an attempt to appear benevolent and prove her innocence. As revealed later on, Natalie did so mainly to maintain Haley's trust, while also keeping her villainous motives a secret from Haley. Ian eventually succumbed to the poisoning, and afterwards, Natalie fully turned heel on Haley when she stabbed her to death with a knife, committing the murder inside Haley's apartment. The villainess committed the murder to prevent Haley from finding out the truth about her sudden illness, and as part of her plan, the evil Natalie attempted to make the murder look like a botched robbery. However, once Haley fell off the balcony, Natalie fled the scene. After her role was revealed, Natalie was arrested (off-screen) for killing Haley and Ian.
== Trivia ==
