Curious Caterer: Foiled Plans (movie) (7 pm, June 7, Hallmark Mystery)
Goldy Berry's Medieval feast at Hyde Castle gets interrupted by a murder. She teams up with Detective Shultz to solve the mystery before the murderer strikes again. Stars Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker.
This premiered on April 24 on Hallmark Mystery. It wasn't included in my listings then because my two source websites haven't yet started listing Hallmark Mystery programming (although they did list Hallmark M&M), so I have discovered that I have to check the Hallmark Mystery website manually. This is the fourth "Curious Caterer" movie, following Curious Caterer: Dying for Chocolate (April 2022), Curious Caterer: Grilling Season (Feb. 2023) and Curious Caterer: Fatal Vows (Oct. 2023).

The couple loses their first child shortly after birth but are overjoyed when they have twins a year later. Tensions began to rise when Rodney loses his job and goes into debt. Rodney blames their fights on Morgan’s drinking--even if she’d only had one--and convinces Morgan that she pushed him down the stairs in a blackout rage. The couple finally separates, and Morgan’s life begins to turn around, until Rodney gets diagnosed with cancer. Not long after, a masked intruder breaks into Morgan’s home and assaults her. Rodney shows up only minutes after the intruder is gone; when authorities question him, Rodney’s story doesn’t seem to be adding up. Does Rodney really have cancer and is he the hero that he claims to be, or has he been gaslighting Morgan for decades? J. Barrett Cooper, Denise Dal Vera and Maximo Sherman also star.
