Marius and Julia's con takes them out to California. Audrey and Carly follow multiple leads in their search for answers about Lila's whereabouts. Back in Bridgeport, Lizzie entangles herself in the Bernhardt family business as a way to keep Marius under her control.

Audrey enlists Marius' help in the search for Lila. They soon discover that her life was far more complicated than they had ever expected. Simmering conflict over Lorraine comes out into the open as Otto and Taylor set out on a cross-country road trip to track down Lizzie.

In the wake of nearly connecting with Lila, the family struggles to come to terms with the idea that she may in fact be alive and in serious danger.   Audrey and Otto become unwitting participants in both of Marius' cons.
