Dale Smith Jr. convinces Michelle Parker to go on the TV show, People's Court, to settle the former couple's dispute over who is responsible for a lost engagement ring.  The judge rules in Smith's favor and orders Michelle to pay Smith $2,500, half of the value of the engagement ring. On the day the show airs in the Orlando, Florida market, Michelle Parker vanishes into thin air.

Nicole Virzi travels from her home in San Diego to Pittsburgh to visit her best friend Savannah Roberts and her husband Ethan Katz after the couple welcomed twin boys, Leon and Ari.
