The Charlatan plot

A woman goes to a fortune teller for fortune telling, and is amazed when the man looks into his crystal ball and goes into detail about events from her past that few people ever knew about. Shocked, she leaves and later tells her friend about the incident. The friend insists that she invite the fortune teller to a party they are having at her house. What the woman doesn't realize is that the "fortune teller" is actually the ex-husband she abandoned years ago when she took their daughter and ran off with her lover. When the 'charlatan' is invited to the party, he sees an opportunity to take revenge on his faithless ex-wife.
