The episode begins with Trent thinking about his husband’s speech to his father. Trent refused to discuss despite Heather’s attempt to keep him open. Meanwhile, Lacey felt overwhelmed in her situation and announced that she was ready to move out of Zeke’s house. Their relationship became tense when Zeke tried to assure her that she was there, but Lacey still stuck with her decision.
The investigation of missing children accelerates when Trent seeks help from Gaby. After hearing that the Jazz disappeared, Trent was determined to get the answer. Gabi agreed to assist but insisted that there was no connection to Mr. and the full transparency of the M&A.
The flashback introduces Margaret, who is investigating the list of suspects related to the disappearance. Her husband downplayed her concerns, claiming that no one was the enemy. Margaret’s protection for her son Jamie is obvious, and her paintings suggest deeper mystery that she doesn’t understand yet.
When Trent and Gabi tracked down Janet Tyson, who was the missing Janet Tyson who investigated the disappearance in 1984, Tyson revealed that Lawrence Johnson, the mother of the missing child, approached her when no one else would help. Tyson’s investigation brought her to James Trent, but he refused to record.
When Jazz called Gaby, nervousness would build up, but she refused to answer. However, Trent answered the phone and the gentleman expressed disappointment, and it took them a long time to visit the reporter. The receptionist’s role in the Clear Jazz adds a sense of skepticism, and it is clear that not all those involved in the case can trust.

The missing children were found to have one thing in common: they were taken from the same school and were not recorded in the same school. This finding introduces a political perspective to the investigation, raising questions about immigration, identity and systemic issues. The school’s principal admitted that he recognized the four children and pointed out that they were very talented.
Trent and Gabi also spoke to a mother of the missing child. After her daughter disappeared and returned to the United States a few years later to continue her search for her, she shared a heartbreaking story.
Meanwhile, Dhan found a shocking evidence: James Trent’s fingerprint was found on documents related to the missing child. James explained that the Jazz stole photos from his home, adding to the growing tension between the two. He also revealed that a previous investigation into toy store owner Dawkins led to a dead end when drugs were found at the store but no missing children were found.
Dhan and Zeke had a private conversation about Lacey moving out. Zeke admits he is reluctant to let go, and Dhan tries to convince him not to do so. Their conversation was interrupted by disturbing videos taken by their missing girl Haben, before she disappeared. The video reveals other missing children who realize the location of the filmed could be the key to solving the case.
Trent and Gabi met Dawkins, the owner of toy store, and he recalled another missing child, Adam Johnson, who often visited his store. Dawkins shared that Adam once told him a man that he promised to reunite with his brother. This makes them consider the possibility that the child is not kidnapped but manipulated to think that the parents don’t want them, making it easier for them to be targeted.
As the investigation progresses, Gaby begins to suspect that the child is being lied and that they may still be alive. This idea provides hope in the darkness of the case, suggesting that some children may be forced to place their families in false excuses rather than being murdered or worse.

The plot ends with a merger and a reunion of the missing child. Dawkins and Adam have a heartfelt hug, which means emotional solutions. Meanwhile, Margaret’s pursuit of Jamie leads to a confrontation, Jamie reveals that a woman is involved in his kidnapping.
At the last moment, Lacey is about to move out, and the nervous kiss between her and Zeke hints at the feeling of unresolved yet. Trent’s encounter with the Jazz and the mysterious tone he received from him set the stage for future development.
