Having escaped from the sanitarium, Emma seeks refuge with the wealthy but evil Trotwood family in Boston, and Lizzie is not far behind. When Lizzie does find Emma, she meets her match in the form of the cold and imperious Aideen Trotwood as Horn and Masterson arrive in town in search of the Bordens. Lizzie manipulates the Trotwoods to get Emma back and sets in motion a plan to eliminate them as well as the two Pinkerton men, but the final results of her actions are not what she expected or hoped for.
