Lewis Jay has been missing for some months and was under some mental pressure. His wife has been struggling to make ends meet.
Both men who have gone missing have left behind children who are distraught.
The episode varies the formula. One of the women has some ulterior motive by claiming that the dead man is their husband.

The focus though is on the women left behind and seemingly abandoned.
