Episode 1–4English
A suburban wife discovers a scorch mark and unfamiliar scent on her husband Gavin's underwear, confirming suspicions about his late nights. She tails him to a parking structure and witnesses him embracing Victoria Lang, his married superior, beside an expensive vehicle. Instead of confronting them, she maintains an immaculate household routine for three months while secretly compiling documentation of the affair and related misconduct.
The scheme culminates at the company's tenth-anniversary celebration, where Victoria takes the stage to announce Gavin's promotion. Police intervene at that moment, arresting Victoria and leaving Gavin with a suspended sentence, a broken family, and long-term financial liability.
