With Viki either arrested or sent to an asylum, she would be free to have Steve all to herself. The meticulous plan went awry when Vinnie told Steve about the meeting on the docks. Steve went in Vinnie’s place, and when he came face to face with Marcy dressed as Niki, he knew she had been the mastermind behind the scheme to drive Viki mad.
