Show Notes Description: "Wendy Comes Home"

Wendy, dirty from traveling rough, unexpectedly returns to her affluent family home after a long absence, hoping to "start her life". Her parents, Connie and Pete, are immediately thrown into conflict by her arrival. As Pete pours himself another drink and Connie obsessively focuses on Wendy's well-being—and the potential of a grandchild—the emotional wounds from Wendy's sudden departure, fueled by a volatile relationship with her father, are reopened.

The domestic drama quickly escalates as Connie reveals she knows about Pete's affair and demands he leave the house. Pete counters, accusing Connie of her own infidelity and exposing the depth of their loveless marriage. However, the couple's explosive fight is overshadowed by a much darker revelation: Connie used her daughter's return as a catalyst to poison her husband. What happens when a family reunion becomes a premeditated act of murder, and will Wendy escape the house before it's too late?.
