First Season

Sutton and Emma are twins who were separated at   birth. They had never met before until they found each other online. Sutton and Emma live completely different lives though. Emma lives the life everyone has always wanted! Her dad is a doctor and she can get whatever she wants. Emma lives with a foster parent and a mean “brother”. They also have very different personalities. Sutton is a manipulator, liar and will do whatever it takes to get what she wants. Emma is sweet and caring and just wants to live a      normal life. 

Emma switches places with her twin sister so that Sutton can go find out whom their real mom is. Emma has to try and figure out who Sutton is while she is pretending to be her. Sutton thinks she found her mom but once she finally meets the women she finds out it is not her real mom. The woman was paid to put her name on the girl’s birth certificates. Which leads her to a family who wanted to adopt Emma. Emma, back at home finds out that Sutton didn’t get a long with her family and she had a secret boyfriend. Emma though has always wanted to have a family so she changes Sutton's relationship with her family. Ethan, Sutton's secret boyfriend falls for Emma and is tired of being kept a secret. Ethan is the only one who knows that she is Emma not Sutton. 

Sutton now found that her real mom is Annie Hobbs. Her mom was placed in a psych ward. When Sutton gets there Annie tells her that her daughter died and that he wouldn’t lie to her. Sutton begins to wonder who told her this and why. But no one is allowed to talk to Annie, so Sutton is forced to leave. Not letting her have time to tell her that Emma is alive. In the mean time Emma starts to get suspensions about Alec, Sutton's godfather, and Ted, Sutton's dad. While Sutton is now mad at Emma for “stealing” her secret boyfriend. But Emma hasn’t heard from Sutton in a long time and is starting to get worried. 

I think that Sutton's Dad or Alec her god father might be the girls real father. Other wise I don't understand what they are hiding. I also wonder what they are hiding or why they told Annie that Emma was dead? I hope that Sutton and/or Emma will be able to talk to Annie to be able to figure out why she  put them up for adoption, who their father is and who told her that Emma was dead? 

Eduardo

In the first Season Eduardo was Mads, Sutton's best friend , dance partner. They started dating which made her father, Alec mad and told Mads that she is not allowed to see him anymore. Eduardo was forced to leave town and was purposely hit by a car because he knows something about Sutton and Emma and Alec didn't want him to tell the girls. Right when he was going to tell Emma he stopped breathing and Emma was forced out of the room. I think that Eduardo knows the secret that Alec and Ted are hiding. Alec got really mad when Eduardo was hanging out with Mads and Eduardo kept wanting to tell Emma and Mads more but every time he was going to he was cut off.

Laurel and Justin

Then comes along Justin who starts dating Laurel, Sutton's sister. He right away makes Laurel fall in love with him. Ted and Justin act very strange around each other. Justin also is very mysterious. Laurel wants to know more about Justin, so she goes to his house to find that he is actually homeless. He is living in an abandoned home because he is in Foster Care. He tells Laurel that he really wants to play golf and his old school does not have a good team. Ted offers to have him live in a room at the club the are members to. Laurel goes to his new room and sees a box. She went to look at it but Justin quickly closes it. Later when she leaves you see Justin open the box and inside is a picture of the Mercer family.  

The Cast

I think that they want you to think that Justin knows the secret that Ted and Alec are hiding but I don't think he has anything to do with it. Justin and Ted act very weird around each other, they don't act very secretive like Ted and Alec do. In the show they are each learning about how lies affect each other. Justin lying to Laurel is affect their relationship. She can feel that he was/ is keeping secrets from her. The lie that Ted and Alec know is affecting their lives by making them always having to come up with a new lie. It also is affecting Ted and Kristen's marriage because as Sutton and Emma are finding things out Kristen is also being affected by it. Since Annie went and got Emma from her adopted family but then was lied to and lost her, made Emma have to be put into foster care. Char, Sutton's best friend, mom i think is being affected by the lies too because she is drinking a lot. Her drinking is also making it tough on Char because it is making her raise her mom and not allowing Char to be a daughter. This one big lie that Ted and Alec are hiding is affecting each character in the show in many different way.
