Let's see. Dana (Darlie's sister) worked with Darin that day at the shop. Basia's, who also worked for Darin, mother was hired the day before to clean house for Darlie. June 5 was her second day on the job. At quitting time, Basia came to pick up her mother. She came in the house and drank a beer. They talked about the garage sale Darlie was planning. The garage door was up looking out to the alley (remember though that this is almost at the intersection of the alley and the street) They see a black car parked in the alley and a couple of guys staring at the stuff in the garage (Later they try to make a big deal of it, but the car was obviously sitting only to turn out of the alley onto the street. They fail to mention that in court though.) Darin and Dana, who had left the shop a half hour before Basia, arrive just as Basia and her mom are leaving. Darlie cooks homemade chicken soup. They all eat together. (The boys don't eat with the adults. They have a small table nearby where they eat.) After dinner the boys go out to play and the adults hang out. (It gets a little fuzzy now because they have two different stories about what Darin does in this time. One is he goes thru stuff in the garage to see how much of his stuff Darlie is getting rid of. Later he was supposedly fixing the gate. One story has them all watching TV together and the other either shortens that time or reduces it considerably.)
I don't know if the boys got into the hot tub before or after dinner, but I suspect it was before dinner. They were said to have emptied half the water out of it. It made Darlie very angry and she was said to have called them little MF's and threatened them with serious retalliation from their dad when he got home. But this neighbor did not testify so we only have what they told one of the book authors about that. In court, Darlie said Darin was upset by it and he said Darlie was the one bothered by it.
The little boy across the street wanted to spend the night but they boys were told no because they'd gotten into trouble (I assume because of the hot tub incident). They came in from play and Darlie vacuumed up behind them. (Think they came in thru the patio doors.)
Different reasons are given for why Dana went home. She had been staying overnight during the week because Darin had given her a summer job. I think Darlie wanted her to go home so she and Darin could talk about their finances. I think in one of the books Dana is attributed to saying that she is the one who wanted to go home, to be there when her fiance came in.
Whatever the reasons, Darin returned from taking her home around 10:00, maybe 10:20. When he returned the kids were downstairs with their sleeping gear and Darlie was laying on the couch with Drake. Darin gets a bottle for him and takes him upstairs to bed. He watches the news and when Drake goes to sleep, he goes back downstairs to talk to Darlie. They discuss or argue, then kiss and make up, and Darin goes back upstairs at 1:00 a.m. The next thing he knows the wine glass breaks and shortly thereafter he hears Darlie's screams. (Should be about 2:25) He rushed downstairs (either nude or after he jumps in a pair of jeans). As Darlie dials 911, he rushes to Devon (doesn't even see Damon) to perform CPR.
