Linda Pressly meets a Chilean woman who posed as a young boy online in her quest to get the police and the Catholic Church to investigate allegations of abuse in the priesthood. Gabriel Gatehouse has a mysterious but revealing encounter with a real-life troll in Stockholm, as he tries to explain the rise of nationalism in supposedly liberal Sweden.
