After liquidating his assets, he also borrows heavily to meet his share of the cost but before the deal is consummated, Marko dies and Gus' money mysteriously vanishes. Beth falls in love with Leos Kodaly, one of Marko's assistants. Shortly after the birth of their twin sons, she is focced to live in Greece, in a home she fears.
