Then one day Stan walks into his living room to find Erica and Michael in a tearful embrace; a horrific tragedy occured and Michael wants his son back. Frightened and looking for answers, Stan is reassured by his attorney father the signed documents are ironclad and there's no need to worry. But things change: sex with Erica is awkward. She no longer trusts Stan with her son. He finds text messages to Michael and discovers she's been talking to her old lover. Are they conspiring against him to take Stan's son from him?
