Storyline:
Morgan and Rodney Metzer were childhood sweethearts who married when Morgan was 21. They lost their first child shortly after birth but were overjoyed when they had twins a year later. Tensions began to rise when Rodney lost his job and went into debt. He blamed their fights on Morgan’s drinking–even if she’d only had one–and convinced her that she pushed him down the stairs in a blackout rage. The couple finally separates, and Morgan’s life begins to turn around, until Rodney gets diagnosed with cancer. Not long after, a masked intruder breaks into Morgan’s home and assaults her. Rodney shows up only minutes after the intruder is gone; when authorities question him, Rodney’s story doesn’t seem to add up. Does Rodney really have cancer and is he the hero that he claims to be, or has he been gaslighting Morgan for decades? Based on a true story.
