Ever skipped off from work, school or a family obligation? This week's episode of The Confessional is for you! Host Krissy Holmes talks to Ben Bright of Kingston, who got to leave work after an accident and wound up getting drunk at a hospital, and Donny Love of St. John's, whose parents still don't know he skipped an entire semester of college in Toronto. Krissy also talks to her grandfather in England, who has some hair-raising tales about skipping school during the Second World War.

Jim St. Clair was a little boy when he overheard something he shouldn't have. He promised his grandmother that he'd keep this family secret. And he did. We'll tell you why he broke that promise 60 years later. It was a cold, rainy day in Vancouver. Wing-Siu Wong, his wife and their 4-year-old had nothing to do. So, what better way to curb their boredom, than to do something illegal?! Plus, Ruth Lawrence confesses about why she lived most of her life with guilt about her sister's death.

Frank Verpaelst saves the day by using certain "tools" to break himself and a young family out of an elevator. It wasn't claustrophobia that motivated his quick thinking, though. You'll be surprised to hear what was! Nurse Jackie Connolly looks no further than her make-up bag to fix broken medical equipment in Haiti. And, Evan Dyer and Stu Mills find themselves in a bit of a "hunting" pickle, in downtown Ottawa.
