"Deadly Lady" is the first episode of the first season of Murder, She Wrote. It first aired on October 7 1984 on CBS, a week after the pilot episode, The Murder of Sherlock Holmes, aired. The episode was written by Peter S. Fischer and directed by Corey Allen.
After a terrible storm, Stephen Earl's four daughters tell Sheriff Amos Tupper that their father died while they were out on the boat. Jessica Fletcher is only midly intrigued; she finds Ralph, the older gentleman who has offered to work for food, much more intriguing, especially since it is obvious he comes from money. The womens' stories about what happened on the boat change constantly, but once Ralph is found dead and later found to be Stephen Earl, Jessica has to help Amos wage through the inconsistencies in the four Earl daughters storylines to determine who killed their father and why.
