Two years after the incident, Joey is finally released - but he will soon wish he could have stayed locked away forever.
While he was away, his mother fell completely under the spell of the Nanny who was hired before the accident. With Joey's return, it's time for Nanny to leave, but she's not ready to go.
Between these two ruthless souls, battle will be waged, and more blood will be spilled.
