Sloane fights to survive and expose her husband's lethal betrayal.
On Christmas Eve, transplant director Reid Carter diverts the kidney matched for his terminally ill wife Sloane and implants it into his mistress's mother, framing the theft as a voluntary gift. The mistress then phones Sloane to thank her for the supposed donation. When Sloane threatens exposure, Reid strikes her and abandons her in a medical emergency, coldly telling her to keep waiting. Sloane subsequently discovers the organ originated from her own deceased mother. She issues an ultimatum: within nine days, Reid will face either divorce papers or news of her death.
