Following the Exxon Valdez oil spill, she had plotted with Susan Mailer and Jared Swanstrom to place a bomb on an oil tanker. Swanstrom built the bomb, and Mailer and Dern intended to plant the bomb when no one was aboard. However, the ship's Captain, Sam Pike, had somehow gotten aboard without them seeing. The bomb was already set, and Mailer wanted to go back and defuse it. Dern wanted the bomb to go off as planned. The two argued, and then Mailer ran back while Dern made her escape. Before Mailer could get to the bomb, it exploded, crippling the captain and killing Mailer. Cynthia told Swanstrom that he'd made a mistake with the bomb and it had gone off too early. Cynthia wanted to run, but, wracked with guilt over causing Susan Mailer's death, Jared had a breakdown. So Cynthia left, tipping off the FBI to his location to save herself. Dern went into hiding, assumed the identity and social insurance number of Allison Porter, a three-month old baby that died in 1963, married Michael Goldman, and eventually became a suburban housewife."@en .
