Million Dollar Lover: 10. Final Plot

A death leaves people in Cayucos trying to make sense of what happened between Carolyn and Dave. What safeguards exist for others in their situation?

In this last programme of the series, the community of Cayucos is watching on and wondering how things will develop. Is there a way to handle a situation like this, where homelessness and wealth collide. Where a damaged man and a frail older woman come together to share a life?

The unusual romance between Dave and Carolyn captured the attention of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Journalist Sue Mitchell as it was unfolding on her street. She spends a lot of time in California, she married an American and her award-winning journalism has been about the lives of people like Dave who inhabit the dangerous margins of society.
