Ava and Nathan are struggling with all aspects of their lives. Nathan has had to resort to teaching the odd private tennis lesson since he was let go at the tennis club. It's been three months since Matt murdered Ruby, and that Simon has been in prison for the murder. It's been three months since they last saw Matt in paying him to leave their lives. But pervading everything is that they have been at odds with each other in the feeding of three month old Jack and in the process Ava has not gotten any sleep, she hallucinating about seeing murder victims, such as Ruby, alive but bloodied. The issue is that she isn't producing enough milk, and while Nathan wants her to feed him a high quality formula, she won't relent in seeing it as a sign of being a bad mother, her own mother which she places in that category. Two items further upend their lives. One, Simon is released from prison, he who may be able to put together the pieces to point Ruby's murder to them. And two, they eventually hear from Matt in Mexico, he who is at a retreat in vowing to have reformed his murderous ways. But Ava notices something in the video call which forces them to reconnect with him in Nathan going to Mexico to rectify the the situation of what she saw. In the process, they learn the true nature behind Ruby's death.
