After Charlie's attempted escape, Joel and Tess decide they need to keep a closer eye on him. Tess is tracking the story of Charlie's disappearance on the web as the police launch an appeal. The news of his cancer diagnosis has leaked, and the most popular theory is suicide. Good news for Joel and Tess, terrible news for his wife Kira and the kids. So as not to arouse suspicion, Joel decides he should go and see Kira. However, while comforting her, he finds himself enjoying taking on Charlie's role in this ready-made family. Meanwhile, back at the house, Nadia is drawn into increasingly frank and intimate chats with Charlie, whose 'enlightened spiritual guru' act convinces her to try to clean up. Has he completely won her over or is he just using her to plan another escape?
