Chapter 3, Episode 14
In this gripping episode, Melissa breaks her silence about the summer she vanished from VBS without warning, leaving everyone scrambling to pick up the pieces. The ladies unpack the personal turmoil Melissa was facing at the time, shedding light on the real reason for her sudden disappearance. Meanwhile, Amanda reflects on how, at the time, she was too distracted by the unraveling of her friendship with the children's ministry leader to fully see what Melissa was going through.
But the story doesn't end there. Just weeks after the VBS incident, Froggy shows his true nature in a shocking public display. Desperate for help, Melissa turned to the church, only to have Tom step in, shutting down any attempt to offer her support and sweeping the abuse under the rug.
This episode pulls back the curtain on the toxic dynamics at play, exposing the cracks in both the leadership and the friendships that held everything together.
