That moment is the start of David's awakening to a monster in his midst. But in the film's turning point in the New York hotel, Rachel makes the fatal mistake of kissing him. She does so by duping the kind, immigrant nanny Ileana and by poisoning Judith Manion. Her biggest coup is to land a trip to New York with David and his little daughter Isabelle. After murdering David's wife Carol through lethal injection at the hospital, Rachel makes her move. With her leverage as David's "executive assistant," Rachel uses the inside information she gleans at the office to worm her way into David's life.
Nora's big mistake was to discover the DVD of the home movie of David that Rachel stole and to dare to insult Rachel by calling her out for her aberrant behavior. Sadly, Nora will be one of the two murder victims of the deranged Rachel in her maniacal obsession with David. But it was never good enough for little Rachel, as she was envious of Nora, the girl she grew up with in the kind family that provided for her. Rachel grew up is as loving a family as one could hope for, given her circumstances as an orphan. Now, as an adult, Rachel wants to reclaim her birthright with the man of her dreams, her boss named David Wescott and his little daughter Isabelle. This is the orphan's ideal of what she never had after she lost both of her parents. There is a revealing image in the film when the former orphan and waif, Rachel Partson, is playing with a cutaway doll house. If not, then you might want to watch something else. If you are a fan of puzzle movies, or cable drama thrills, than The Perfect Assistant is certainly going to be very satisfying. Potter make with these roles is part of the delicious fun of watching the films. So watching what choices fine actors like Ms.

But in a cable TV movie, each of these roles is a part of the plot machinery that must move the story forward. Is it the disingenuous friend? The unsuspecting sister? The co-worker with a nefarious plan? The roles are just "parts" to an actor. I've enjoyed a few movies she and some of the other cast have been in for Lifetime, and part of that enjoyment is seeing what type of character they'll be playing this time around.
If they were recasting Dallas, she'd fit right in. Not only is she hot, but she brings a spark to the screen. While the user above pointed out Sophie's performance I have to say I completely disagree. I think part of the reason why The Perfect Assistant was so enjoyable is that it features a collective of actors who work pretty consistently in these movies, and much like a basketball team that has played together for a long time, they have a fun time with what they are doing. There is a format that these movies follow and it must be challenging to consistently find ways to keep them fresh-and more importantly, with this channel, entertaining. Having watched more than my share of Lifetime movies, I am constantly surprised at the creative ways the filmmakers switch things up. All in all, thanks to Davis, Potter and Hunter it wasn't that bad. Both were not actresses but a freak of nature. Weak spots were Sophie Gendron, with her Novocaine lips and Deborah Pollitt as the plain Jane weird sister. Rachel Hunter brought a likable maturity to the fold. Unlike Perry King who always seems to succumb to his evil ladies. Natural in his acting and believable with a difficult role. I also liked Chris Potter from QUEER AS FOLK fame. I thought monitors were for keeping tabs on patients, yet no one came to the rescue when the lady's monitor went crazy. Although I do challenge in what hospital a stranger can walk in at night without a nurse questioning her and then do her evil. I loved it when she didn't get what she wanted. Cold steel blue eyes and manner, she traipsed through the film undaunted. Although the leading lady played by Josie Davis was a bit over the wall, she still brought that evil doings expected in these "perfect" films on LMN.
