Siblings Sara and Frank (now a police officer and a lawyer) as children watched their parents die in a car explosion. Sara is still pursuing leads to find out who killed their parents, and Frank reluctantly joins her investigations.

Frank gets a case at the law firm representing Thomas Waldman. He is given a week to win and for the first time is forced to play the game in order to get closer to the truth about his parents' death.

To win Waldman's confidence, Frank defends one of his henchmen. But things become complicated when the prosecutor turns out to be Patricia Staaf, with whom Frank had an affair and still has feelings.

Brian reveals to Frank that he has evidence that links the drugs business directly to Waldman, and Patricia agrees to give Brian witness protection. Sara is in danger of losing Liam's confidence by trying to help Frank.

Frank wants to avenge Patricia's shooting so decides against Sara's will to try to get Waldman's greatest enemy, Daniella Ayala, out of prison to create a drugs war. As a result, a gulf opens up between the two siblings.

Frank has been released from jail and is now the proud new father of baby Laura. Sara receives news concerning Therese Waldman's death, and Frank makes an unexpected move.

The notion of having framed Therese for drug possession prior to her early demise, haunts Frank. Sara questions Frank's choices and worries about what he is about to do next.
