In this gripping episode of The Sunshine Place, the story takes a dark turn as it explores the re-emergence of Dr. Miller Newton in the 1990s. Known for his controversial practices at Straight Inc., Newton reappears with a new program called KIDS, targeting vulnerable teenagers and their desperate parents. Wendy, a former Straight Inc.
