Piper's suspicions about Leo are increasing after finding a secret file with his name on at Toadie's office. And since neither Toadie or Leo will reveal what's going on, Piper is determined to find out what shifty business Leo is involved in...

However, after accessing Leo's computer and discovering some e-mails between the businessman and the mystery woman pictured in the photograph she found, Piper has some big explaining to do when Leo catches her snooping!
