**Putting on the Clothes** is the fifth episode of the first season of *The Society*, and the fifth episode of the series overall.

## Synopsis

A student's confession leads to an arrest and a trial. Elle experiences Campbell's dark side, and Harry's drug use escalates.

## Plot

**SPOILERS AHEAD**
The stray dog that Cassandra saw moments before she died, Elle now finds the dog and brings it inside. It’s unfortunate that this dog isn’t a sign of coming death because that would be a neat twist to the show. However, it’s just a regular dog and Elle decides to name him “Charlie.” It’s clear that Campbell does not like this dog, even though the animal starts living with him and Elle. After the dog goes missing one night, it’s implied that Campbell killed him.

Harry is hanging out with some of his bros, and just like many other background characters on the series they are literally named Boy 1 and Boy 2. One of the boys does have a name, though, and it’s Dewey. While Harry complains about Cassandra again, Dewey confesses that he killed Cassandra as favor to Harry and now he wants to be rewarded for it in Harry’s eyes it’s super strange and out of left field, but hey, he confesses to it. Dewey killed Cassandra in the name of Harry.

Now wrought with guilt, Harry confesses this to Kelly. Kelly is like “I am not taking on your emotional labor, Harry!”. So Harry turns to Gordie and tells him about Dewey, and then Gordie tells the group that they need to check Dewey’s house for a gun.

It’s decided that the Guard is going to go and arrest Dewey, even though these kids have never arrested someone in their life before. Becca and Allie head off to the school to pull up Dewey’s records, and even Becca is like Dewey “is a complete nobody.” But he’s a nobody who killed Cassandra. The Guards find a gun and bullets in his closet and take him into custody.

With literally nowhere else to store a prisoner, Allie puts him in Luke’s wine cellar. This is now their makeshift prison. Gordie is able to match the bullets in Cassandra to Dewey’s gun and basically tells him that things are about to get bad.

Allie calls a meeting at the church and explains to everyone that Dewey is being held for killing Cassandra. There’s going to be a trial against him now, to determine if he’s guilty or not.

Helena is asked to defend Dewey, while Gordie serves as the prosecutor. Allie proceeds over the trial, with a jury who’s going to decide if he’s guilty or not in the end. Dewey is now claiming that all the evidence found in his room was planted, and Helena questions if there’s any possibility there could be another gun like Dewey’s that is an exact match the bullets. Harry later takes the stand and relays Dewey’s confession to everyone, so even though Helena is providing reasonable doubt, he’s later found guilty and the sentence is death.

When he’s allowed to say a few words to the church (aka, the courthouse), he basically says that he did this because women rejected him and he’s upset about that. Dewey killed Cassandra because everyone hated her, and also Campbell helped plan it. The Guards then arrest Campbell, too.
