Lisa Gardner (The Protector)

Lisa Gardner (Emmanuelle Vaugier) is the villainess of "Revisions", episode 1.05 of Lifetime's The Protector (airdate July 17, 2011). She was the wife of John Gardner, a wealthy plastic surgeon, and was the flagship patient of her husband's partner, Nolan Miller.
When John was found shot to death outside his and Lisa's home, Lisa appeared heartbroken by her husband's death, proclaiming that she depended so heavily on John that she didn't know how she would live without him. However, detective Gloria Sheppard began to suspect Lisa of killing John, especially after learning that Lisa would inherit a lot of money from his death. But upon interrogation, Lisa cleared herself of suspicion by revealing how John had developed stage four brain cancer that left him with only a few months to live.
Ultimately, Nolan was revealed as John's killer--as he had been having an affair with Lisa, and he additionally killed John's assistant, Ronnie Johnston, when she realized Nolan had a motive for killing John and confronted him. It was ultimately uncovered by Gloria that Lisa had orchestrated her husband's death for monetary benefit, as she would receive John's business's five million dollar payout in the event that he was killed and Nolan was charged with his murder. After exposing Lisa as a greedy deceiver to Nolan following his arrest, Nolan agreed to testify against her and Gloria arrested Lisa at her home as she was swimming. As she was apprehended, the evil Lisa proclaimed that it would be her word against Nolan's, with Gloria assuring her that the jury was more likely to believe Nolan as she handcuffed Lisa.
