In "The Two Mr. Kissels," real estate mogul Andrew Kissel (Stamos) marries
sporty blond ski instructor, Hayley Wolff (Gretchen Egolf, "Journeyman"),
while his younger brother Rob Kissel (Anson Mount, "Conviction"), a New York
investment banker, marries social climber Nancy Keeshin (Robin Tunney). On
the surface, it seems that both the Kissel brothers are starting idyllic
families. After Rob moves his family to Hong Kong for a promotion, Nancy
grows to resent his long work hours. In retaliation, Nancy begins a torrid
affair and ultimately kills Rob by drugging him and bludgeoning him to death,
igniting worldwide media frenzy. Years later, Andrew is caught embezzling
millions of dollars to support his increasingly lavish lifestyle and drug
addiction. With the courts breathing down his neck, former business partners
turning on him, and a frustrated and embarrassed wife filing for divorce,
Andrew is found dead in the basement of his Greenwich mansion. The question
remains: was Andrew murdered by one of his many enemies, or did he arrange it
himself in order to escape his living nightmare?
