Question! Contains SPOILERS!, 3 June 2008

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I just have a couple of questions. Okay, Gina, the one twin sister fell into the river and the mother dived in to save here. So, what became of the other twin (Jennifer?) that was left on the bridge? Supposedly, they were going to meet their father so what became of him? Couldn't the father have explained everything to authorities?

Did Jennifer end up in child custody? They never really explained her life growing up.

Is there any explanation for a women just suddenly having a 5 year old child? Since when do you have to write 10 lines of content just to ask a couple of questions??

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
