83. Confessions

After weeks of being without her, Laerchel appears back into Cris' life. She meets Niela, but Cris isn't the only one sensing the tension in the air. Niela leaves so the two can talk, to which Cris admits to Laerchel that Niela is his wife. This prompts Laerchel to admit something to him. That leads Cris to admit something to Tia. And we learn what happens when the soap falls into the water...
