150: Acid Lady (Deadly Wives)

I Think Not!
About this episode
Tim and Larissa Schuster are a successful couple in Clovis, California. Larissa owns a thriving biochemistry lab, while Tim works at a hospital and manages their home and two kids. The Schuster marriage appears to be a perfect example of "opposites attract"--she's a bubbly go-getter, and he's shy and sensitive. But after 20 years, the many differences in their personalities strain to the breaking point--with clashes over money, the children, and lack of intimacy. Tim finally decides he's had enough, and moves out. As they edge towards divorce, their arguments grow from bad to worse fueled by Larissa's anger over dividing property, belongings, and her one true love--the million-dollar chemical lab. Then, Tim suddenly disappears--and what begins as a missing persons case, ends with a hidden gun, secret tape recordings and a discovery no one could have predicted.
