When Walter returned home one evening, he found his wife, Abby, in tears — their newborn son, Logan, had been crying nonstop. Despite feeding, changing, and soothing him, nothing worked. Determined to help, Walter checked the crib — but instead of their baby, he found a tape recorder playing Logan’s cries and a ransom note demanding $200,000 for their son’s return. Terrified, the couple realized Logan had been kidnapped.
Walter immediately suspected a janitor he had insulted at the hospital. Though Abby begged him not to go to the police, fearing for Logan’s life, Walter believed it was the only way. Before he could act, a threatening message warned them that Logan would be harmed if they involved the police. Desperate, Walter decided to pay the ransom, but when he followed the supposed kidnapper, he discovered the man was only a middleman — and the real culprit was still out there.
When Walter returned home, Abby was gone — along with all her belongings. His worst fears came true: Abby had staged the kidnapping herself. With help from a doctor he bribed, Walter tricked Abby into bringing Logan to the hospital under the pretense of a medical emergency. As soon as she arrived, police and FBI agents surrounded her, arresting both Abby and her accomplice, Walter’s brother, James.
In a shocking twist, Abby screamed that Logan wasn’t even Walter’s biological child, revealing she had cheated during their struggle to conceive. Despite the heartbreak, Walter was simply grateful to have his son back. As Abby was taken away in handcuffs, Walter held Logan close, vowing to raise him with love and integrity — no matter the truth behind his parentage.
