I told a lie to fix a lie, Willa tells her priest.
People can study pictures and learn names and fib.

Meyer proposing that Adam help the cops set a trap for his kidnapper.
They bait the hook with a sound bite from Adam to the press still gathered around his house.
Theres a burger joint hes been craving, and hell probably be heading there soon.
But we know that he heard.
The gears are quietly turning.
(Wanna play Spot the G-Man?)
Dressed in his captors favorite shirt, Adam is shiny with sweat as his eyes dart around the cafeteria.
He tells Danny to walk away; the man wont approach unless Adam is alone.
Claire watches helplessly from the surveillance van, already regretting being talked into this plan.
No one looks twice at them as they leave the building.But Jane isnt entirely nondescript to everyone.
Im no doctor, but Im guessing that Adams dread over facing his abuser contributed to his intestinal distress.
John puts his energy into an extramarital affair and a secondary career anything to escape that home.
Was Willa motivated by guilt alone?
But thats not all there is to it.
Who asked you to?
Her actions are so foreign to him.
Hed burn the whole thing down, if he could.
Theres no absolution at the bottom of that bottle for Willa.
(Truth or another lie?
It actually doesnt matter at the moment.)
Booze throws Willa off her game; pain medication does the same for Ben.
But Doug, our Pock-Marked Man, remains impressively unflappable.
Most of the time.
Doug is so generically pleasant; his two regular modes are cow-like passivity and laser-focused determination.
But not when hes looking at Ben at the mall.
Doug is furious that Ben escaped.
I think hes furious, too, that Ben is trying to take Adams place.
Hes disappointed in Ben for being where he doesnt belong.
Thats why he sends him those flowers: as a greeting and a warning.
He betrayed their little family, and Doug is planning to right that wrong.
Dougs rage is the best tool the cops have, though they dont even know it yet.
Hes already getting sloppy; the lab is able to pull animal hairs from his abandoned jacket.
Its not nothing, Clements wisely tells a dejected Meyer.
She shows up at his doorstep, boldly offering a frequent-buyer card and her phone number.
He nearly stands Fran up for their date but gives up when she spots him.
But he opted for it in prison, and he opts for it again here.
Being alone changes you, began our intro voiceover for this evening.
How much about Adams family must Ben have heard in those years they were together?
Its an awful thought.
But Ben also isnt alone in this deception.
Whatever penance her priest gave Willa Warren, it wasnt enough.
