"The Psychic Con" - Debra, Priti and Ruth each turned to psychics for clarity and answers during difficult times in their lives. Unfortunately, their psychics took advantage of their vulnerability and asked the women for money to remedy a spiritual ailment or problem they identified. Each woman said she became emotionally dependent on her psychic. Faced with escalating demands and after losing tens of thousands of dollars, the women decided to fight back. Each woman sought the help of private investigator Bob Nygaard, a former NYPD officer who now helps people free themselves from the influence of a psychic. With Nygaard's assistance, all three women set out to reveal their psychics as con artists and seek justice.
