This week on Manhattan, old demons resurface for Frank (John Benjamin Hickey) when Annie Liao (Lucia Micarelli) shows up to The Hill to uncover the truth about what happened to her husband. Abby (Rachel Brosnahan) is torn between her marriage and her undeniably intensifying affair with the beguiling Elodie (Carole Weyers). Meanwhile, Frank and Charlie (Ashley Zukerman) encounter a critical flaw in Charlie’s previous work, and Liza (Olivia Williams) slips back under the spell of old behaviors.
