Plot: Emma, Michael and Claire's little daughter, lead a peaceful and happy existence. A short while later, Claire gave birth to another child, bringing joy to this lovely family. But after the delivery examination, Claire finds out that Morton, the obstetrician and gynecologist, is planning to misbehave. She makes a complaint against him, which leads to Morton's breakdown and death, as well as Mrs. Morton's miscarriage and inability to conceive. The child born in Claire's womb six months later was called Joey. Claire chooses to employ a nanny called Peyton—who happens to be Mrs. Morton—to look after Joey. She reappears with Claire this time, surreptitiously but solely to carry out her plot of retaliation.
