Do you refuse to watch an episode of Dateline called BEFORE THE STORM where Dennis Murphy says, “There’s a storm a-brewin’!” Then this is the Dateline for you! Because he doesn’t say that. But he DOES have a little extra cowboy gumshoe detective flair as he walks us through the tragic disappearance and murder of a beautiful mother and the two main suspects who knew her… um… "intimately".  But not even Dennis and his more than enoughness can distract Kimberly and Katie from the plethora, the parade, the art exhibition of… COWBOY HATS. Different shapes, sizes, and materials, what do they all mean? So, grab your 10 gallon Stetson, commandeer an airboat, borrow a gun from your local beautician, and head on down to Texas for BEFORE THE STORM! 
Official Description from NBCU: A mother of two who vanishes during a storm turns out to be a victim of something sinister. Dennis Murphy reports.

The Night Time Stopped S.32 Ep.34

Andrea Canning is again proving herself do be one of Dateline's bravest correspondents. We have seen her perilously hung off the side of a mountain, draping a giant python around her shoulders, but now in THE PERFECT LIFE, she has suffered through yet another dramatic interview with Remy Ramsaran. You might remember Remy from back in 2018’s episode Secret Lives, as the overly enthusiastic marathon runner who was proudly having a secret affair with his wife’s best friend. The new 2024 version of Remy is a screaming, rabid, sweaty Mr. Corporate America who thinks doing time is HILARIOUS. Or so he claims. This is one of the most memorable cases Kimberly and Katie have ever covered and not even they were prepared for this new bats in the belfry update episode.  We all owe you a debt of gratitude for your service, Ms. Canning. 
Original Description from NBCU: A mystery looms over a small New York town when a woman is murdered and a stunning secret is exposed; more than a decade later, new developments lead to an unexpected conclusion. Andrea Canning reports.

Dateline brings our favorite gumshoe Dennis Murphy back for a third week in a row! This time to a Target parking lot in Georgia where the heartbreaking murder of a young mom has occurred during a child custody swap. And just as shocking as the crime itself... this time it may actually NOT be the husband! Kimberly and Katie, of course, have many questions. Are things getting sudsy and sexy at the local car wash? Is there anywhere in America that you can wear a terrible fake mustache and wig and NOT be made fun of by a teenager? Is Wendy's ever a good alibi? Grab a frostie and settle in for some answers because it’s time for DEADLY SWAP!
