Recap of Suspicion Episode 3

‘Strangers,’ the third episode, begins with the aftermath of the kidnappers’ confusing ransom demand. The authorities hold a press conference to ask the public to contact them if they have any information that could aid with the investigation. An official further states that communication has been made with the kidnappers in order to clarify the ransom demand. Katherine and the FBI are skeptical that the truth is linked to the businesswoman’s recent nomination as ambassador to the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, Aadesh visits his wife’s relatives and convinces them that they have nothing to be concerned about. He joins his in-laws’ carpet business to appease them.

Sean keeps texting Natalie, asking her to wait for his instructions. Natalie returns home and looks for her money bag. Monique confronts her sister and demands the truth in exchange for the money bag. Natalie informs Monique that the money is meant to be transferred to a client from whom she stole money. She also tells her sister that she knows nothing about the guy she is in contact with or the kidnapping that occurred in New York. Tara arrives at her lesson only to be approached by her superior, who demands assurances that the institution would not be implicated in the case.

Tara’s arrest news reports are released online, including the name of her college, paving the road for her suspension. She also meets with her daughter and assures her that she has done nothing to make her daughter ashamed. Natalie returns to her previous workplace and accesses the computer data. She is arrested again while she is leaving the firm. Monique makes touch with Sean in order to return the money. However, she is arrested just as she is about to hand over the money and phone to Sean.

Suspicion Episode 3: Why Is Natalie Arrested Again? What Motivated Natalie to Steal the Money?

Natalie stole money to pay for her sister’s college education in New York. When Monique was given the opportunity to study in the United States, Natalie stepped up to pay for her education as Mon’s older sister. Natalie and her mother agreed to steal money from her clients’ accounts while filing the taxes because they couldn’t afford such an opportunity with their income. She took $400 from the client so she could look after her sister while she was studying in New York. Natalie, as a proud sister, couldn’t bear the thought of her sister passing up such an opportunity, so she stole the money to excuse her own conduct.

When Natalie’s client, Nemus, discovered the missing money, they requested that Natalie return double the amount Natalie had taken from their account. They also told her to do so by transferring it from another account she worked on. Natalie returns to her former employer to finalize the transactions. Through surveillance, Vanessa and Anderson discover that she is committing financial fraud as she completes the transactions. Natalie’s activities reflect their own investigation into her shell firm, therefore they infer she has embezzled money from Nemus Group, whose major owner is Leo’s mother Katherine’s company, Cooper Newman PR.

Natalie is being held again because of her dubious relationship with Leo’s company. Since Nemus sought double the money Natalie stole, it is clear that Natalie is unable to pay back in order to avoid legal difficulties, which could compromise her relationship with Joe. Vanessa and Anderson may believe Natalie kidnapped Leo in order to clear the bill and prevent any legal difficulties. Since the link between Leo’s company and Natalie has been discovered, the detectives re-arrest her to look into Natalie’s suspected involvement in the kidnapping as well. Natalie is also being held as a means of capturing Sean, who communicates with her on a daily basis.

Eddie Walker, who is he? Eddie Walker, is he a kidnapper?

Eddie Walker is a college student who was present at the Park Madison Hotel on the day Leo Newman was abducted. Walker took a cab from the airport and used his credit card hours before the incident in a bar near the hotel. Furthermore, he is a student at the University of Oxford, where Tara also teaches. Walker’s presence during the time and date of the kidnapping leads officials to suspect that he is somehow connected in the crime. His suspicions are heightened by the fact that Tara attends the same university.

Walker’s first question to the officers that arrest him is whether his detention is related to Leo’s kidnapping, implying that he may be engaged in the crime in some manner. His whereabouts on the day of the crime, however, do not qualify him as a kidnapper. The similarities between Tara and him could be coincidence. Because the authorities are in a hurry to find a lead in order to safeguard Leo, they may be acting rashly by detaining Walker. Walker’s arrest may be similar to those of Aadesh, Natalie, and Tara, who were all arrested without substantial proof.

Walker’s interest in Leo could be for reasons other than his suspected involvement. They may know each other as two Oxford students, and Walker may be expecting the officials to ask him about a probable acquaintance.

Will Aadesh and Sonia continue to be together?

Aadesh’s arrest and the charges he faces radically alter the dynamics of his personal life. As an irresponsible-yet-ambitious husband, he has given Sonia, his wife, plenty of reasons to be concerned. Sonia’s patience is severely tested by Aadesh’s arrest and the ensuing commotion. When Aadesh’s popularity disrupts her family’s serenity and business, Sonia decides she can no longer tolerate her husband.

When Aadesh suggests leaving for a bit to get away from the chaos surrounding him, Sonia makes it obvious that she will not accompany him. The loss of her family’s support and Aadesh’s aimless life severely strain her marriage, giving her second thoughts about supporting her husband during such a difficult time. If the uproar produced by Aadesh’s detention continues to disrupt her and her family’s livelihood, Aadesh’s relationship with Sonia may deteriorate, leading to their separation.
