Episode 1.
It's almost impossible to describe the whole story because there are so many spontaneous twists and turns, but it's about a couple that wants to defraud the insurance company by faking the death of the wife.
Except that the death itself won't be faked, that's going to be the wife's look-alike's job, Jennifer.
Jennifer and Paul get married.
Paul's wife and co-conspirator Toni pretends to be Jennifer (as herself) and fakes spontaneous blackouts, which will explain Jennifer's (as Toni) unfortunate "accident".
Later, the doctor calls Jennifer to rearrange the next appointment but she has no idea what he's talking about since she's never suffered from blackouts.
Jennifer thinks that Paul worries too much about his (vague) business, and informs him about her wealth, more than one million dollars, just in case he's going to need some.
Paul had no idea, and this last-minute revelation saves her life.
But Toni has no intention whatsoever to change their plans.
The situation spirals out of control, she tries to kill Jennifer herself, she and Paul struggle and he accidentally pushes Toni over the cliff - which is witnessed by a witness.
The witness was part of the original plan, but of course he wasn't supposed to see this.
Paul urges Jennifer to tell the police the truth: that it was an accident, and that he saved her life.
She says that she can't tell the police anything because she had a blackout.
Paul is toast, cue sinister dam-dam-dam music.
Well I thought it was a very intriguing and twisty episode, although Jennifer had to be a little gullible sometimes in order to let the deceit to continue.
There weren't any eerie moments and that's what I really want from this series.
7/10
