Happy Friday Everyone! On this weeks episode Claire will be taking over Lauren's case of the McGill's, a 55 year old couple going on a cruise to celebrate retirement and birthdays. This couple seemed to be perfect, all the way down to the cul-de-sac house in the San Fernando Valley. However as we all know, noting is perfect! Listen along as Claire tells you how their life turned upside down and the husband blames it on a scorpion. Buckle up buttercups, paradise isn't what it seems.
