Judge Gagnon and his wife Maryanne, think Bobby murdered their son out of lust for Catherine.
The influential judge is determined to take away Nathan from Catherine, who they see unfit to mother their only grandchild. The combination of past memories of abduction, emotionally absent parents and birth of Nathan had left Catherine mentally paralyzed. These two are brought together by a moment of crime but they seem to be connected by a deeper and dangerous passion.
