Never.

Heather fled with the children to her parents' home in Minnesota and filed for divorce.

Did you say to Heather, if you leave me, you're going to pay?

Not that I recall ever saying that.

Heather moved on and began dating John Grossman, the son of a business tycoon who was part owner of the Minnesota Vikings football team.

You weren't jealous of him?

No, I wasn't jealous of John Grossman.

Samuels hired a succession of lawyers to fight Heather over custody of the children and child support payments.

The court ordered you to pay $3,000 a month in child support.

Is that right?

You refused to pay.

Altogether, you spent $650,000.

$665,000.

In legal fees to fight this.

That's correct.

Samuels also moved on, marrying Debbie Love, a legal secretary in the firm that represented him in his divorce.

Debbie and Samuels, who always struggled with his weight, saw his children often during scheduled visitations.

It was during one of those visits, Samuels says his children told him that John Grossman was mistreating them.

Samuels confronted Grossman on the phone.

But was Samuels capable of carrying out those threats?
