Ainsley believes she has the perfect solution for the problems she and Peter are having. After learning about his secret “hobby”, she blackmails him with the evidence of his past activities. It works, for a while. Peter is thrilled to be free, rather than in prison! Eventually, though, that good feeling wears off and they are  right back where they started….Peter lying, sneaking around, keeping secrets. When Ainsley doesn’t know how to fix their issues, she tells him they can be partners, both engaging in his secret pastime. When issues arise with an old business partner and with their daughter’s dance coach, they work together to solve them. But Peter continues to lie. Finally, Ainsley decides she must do something drastic to resolves these issues once and for all to rid herself of the problems. She must free herself and her children from all the problems Peter brings to them.
