Yes, that could be. But even if the criminal record was cleared, how could the in-laws so easily forget? The children reacted like he hadn't been gone for long at all. None of it felt "real".

Trivia - Adriane is likely named for the character that helped Theseus out of the Minotaur's maze. A couple of times I was reminded of 2001, like when the rich son entered his father's vault - it felt like Dave eating alone in the room after crossing beyond the infinite.
