Have you ever looked for something for so long
That you finally declared it “gone away”?
Or somebody…and you declared them “dead and gone”?
Well, that is this intriguing show for you….
Called “Absentia”.
FBI Agent Emily Burns goes missing, one day, for 6 years
Without a trace
From work or friends or even her own family
And is declared dead….with even somebody jailed for the rest of their life
Under the accusation that they made her “disappear”!
All the pieces start coming together when a body is found floating on a lake in the country-side
By a team of rowers.
On taking a closer look, this is another person but not their “Emily”.
Agent Nick, who happens to be Emily’s former husband since he has now re-married, receives a phone call deep in the night from somebody unknown to us
Informing him of how Emily is still alive and kept away “under water” somewhere in the woods!
She has “risen from the dead”, so he thinks.
And rushes to the scene….
True to the word on the phone conversation,
Emily is actually there
But she is in totally bad shape.
Her absentia is felt so much more than ever before!
Little did anyone know that she is going to be framed for the murder of the other young woman, whose body was found floating on the lake!
Imagine….for you to disappear one day and come back another, only to be framed for a crime you don’t even know about!
And not only that….as time goes by, so many bodies keep on “re-surfacing” and you are the number 1 suspect in their demises.
Madness! Thrilling madness! Exciting madness!
If there is a person that believes her and in her,
It is her father, Warren.
There is no mountain he won’t climb for her
No distance he won’t cover for her
Where she goes, he goes.
Jack is seemingly what you call, a “loose end” in this whole debacle
There is a period of 6 years that he cant account for….about the same time when Emily was captured
But at last, we just might get some good news, eh!
Now, when you lose all that time of your life,
So many things are bound to change
Like your own family begins “moving on” aka carrying on with their lives!
Nick remarries this time around and marries Alice
She is my second-best character on the show, just so you know
She doesn’t take crap quietly
And won’t be crap around you, either.
Flynn is the son of Emily and Nick
Thing is, she didn’t get to know her mummy so well
She was captured when he was really small
But soon, they will hit it, like she wasn’t away, eh….
Hey, what do you think about Dr. Vega and Detective Gibbs?
Don’t they strike you as people who may be having something to hide?
Especially, Gibbs…..he looks quite flustered but steady at the same time?
How about you just watch it
And get to find out who really captured Emily
And who Emily really is or was?
