Meanwhile, Sid (another member of the team) is still dealing with the fallout from his affair with another woman, who has now gone missing.

Meanwhile, back at the laboratory, the remaining team members are dealing with their own problems. Liza tries to make amends with Frank, but he is not ready to forgive her yet. Sid's desperation to find the missing woman leads him to make some questionable choices, which ultimately puts him in a dangerous situation.
