'Mrs. Wilson' Part 2 Recap: "Forgiveness Brings Peace"

Alison Wilson continues the search to figure out who her husband was in the conclusion of Mrs. Wilson.

Mrs. McKelvie: He's a crook and a liar. I don't believe a single word he says.

When we last left off in Mrs. Wilson, Alison (Ruth Wilson) discovered that her work to hide her husband's lies from the boys has failed, and both Gordon and Nigel move out, enraged that she's keeping secrets she doesn't truly understand herself. This week opens with a flashback to a time when Alec was imprisoned during the War, back in '44, as part of what he claimed was an undercover job. Alison left him during that period, desperate for something, anything, that would help her to feed her kids, to pay the rent, and to live a decent life. She went home to her mother's, but it didn't stick. Alec convinced her to come home, despite her mother's urging to not go back to him.
