By March 2019, Emma and the man she knows as Andrew Thomson have been dating for almost six months, their relationship appears to be going from strength to strength. Andrew had put in months and months of graft, it was now time for him to double down on his lies and do what he does best, exploit, rinse ..... and repeat.

 

In the last Episode

  • Emma meets a man called Andrew Thomson on tinder
  • He is a charming, outgoing, entrepreneur from Tasmania, Australia
  • The relationship moves from strength to strength over the first few dates, he seems too good to be true
  • By date four Andrew lets Emma into what she thinks is his deepest, darkest secret, his false imprisonment in a Melbourne jail
  • Emma is faced with a decision..... but everyone deserves a second chance, right?
