forward to speak exclusively to us. looking at old family photographs of paul fronczak is a strange experience. because the baby in his baby pictures is not him. how do you feel when you see this picture? >> i feel like i want to find him and hug him and make sure he's okay. >> reporter: paul fronczak recently discovered his entire life, his name, his parents, his birthday, all of it, is a big mystery. a mystery that began with a kidnapping 49 years ago, in 1964. just a day after paul fronczak was born. the first child of chester and dora fronczak. but baby paul was snatched from his mother's arms, right in the maternity ward of a chicago hospital. the baby was kidnapped. >> the baby was gone. >> i don't think i could take another woman's baby. >> reporter: her public appeal to the kidnapper went unheeded.

>> we are questioning suspects. >> reporter: a massive dragnet came up empty. just over a year later, a child somewhat matching paul's description was found. you are discovered in a stroller in newark, new jersey. >> abandoned in a stroller in a blue suit. >> reporter: the fronczaks claim the little boy in a blue suit as her own. now an adult, paul works for a college in nevada. he's married and has a child of his own. a normal life. until a year ago, when a dna test showed he is not the fronczaks' child after all. now that you know the truth, that you are not the real paul fronczak, what are you trying to accomplish? >> my main goal for this whole project is to find the real paul. my parents raised me. and they did a great job. and i feel that if i don't do everything i can to help find their real child, then i'm not

doing my job as a son. >> and you just mentioned it. paul fronczak wants to find paul fronczak. >> the real paul fronczak. who is he? >> why did he, after all these years, get that dna test? >> his parents didn't want it. they wanted to just -- you know, you're our son. let sleeping dogs lie. he always knew that he was different. he has a brother. the true son, the biological son of the fronczaks. he knew he was different. and he had to find out why. >> it's not just a search for him. it's a search for himself, as well. the fbi has reopened this case. is paul the man we know, the man we saw you interview, is he hopeful this will be concluded, resolved in some way? >> what he said to me is i am cautiously optimistic. what he wants from everybody else, is that if you know anything about him, any of you watching or any of you know anything, please let us know because he hopes that he will

know more when this information is discovered. and also, all of the abc unit is working on it. so, we're going to investigate. we hope we will find it out. a full report will be out in the fall. this is a mystery within a mystery. >> this is a "20/20" i'm not going to miss. thank you so much, barbara. again, if you have any tips or clues that can help solve this case, go to goodmorningamerica.com on yahoo! send them to us now. we turn, now, to a story that's a true miracle. a woman trapped in the wreckage of a car crash, as rescue workers try in vain to free her. and like an answer to a prayer, help arrives just in time. but that's just the beginning of the mystery. john muller has the story. >> reporter: a small missouri town is looking for the man in this sketch. he's not suspected of a crime,

but a miracle. >> this time, i think i witnessed a guardian angel at work. >> reporter: a drunk driver hit katie lynn in her vehicle. she asked crews to pray with her. that's when first responders say a man that looked like a catholic priest, seemed to appear out of nowhere, despite a two-mile perimeter. >> there was a calmness to me seemed to come over the entire scene. >> reporter: another seemingly divine detail. firefighters said their equipment kept failing until that mystery man showed up. >> the words were to remain calm. our tools would work. >> reporter: she was saved. but when crews turned around to thank the man, he vanished. this morning, she's recovering in the hospital, with broken legs and limbs. but some say it could have been worse. >> whether it was a priest as an angel, or an actual angel that

came in, he was an angel to all those and to katie. >> reporter: for "good morning america," john muller, abc news, new york. >> what a stunning story that is. we're going to get back to sam now. sam, update on hurricane season under way. >> update on the hurricane season. what you should know is it's just slightly adjusted downward. but way above normal for the season. the normal number would be 12. we're going 13 to 19 named storms. we think it's going to be an active hurricane season. should kick off being active august toward september. here's the heat. we lose that cloud cover. we're concerned with what happens with that fire situation in the west.

confrontation with the controversial church of scientology, to a new level. even before this latest bombshell, remini let it be known she plans on writing a tell-all memoir. and was talking publicly about her decision to leave the choice. as seen here on "access hollywood." >> i'm good. i have my family. my real friends are behind me. and that says a lot. >> reporter: now this. abc news confirming that remini filed a missing persons report with the los angeles police department, on the wife of the man who runs the church of scientology, david miscavige. >> we have an utter monopoly on workable solutions. >> reporter: kelly miscavige, who we're told is friends with leah remini, seen together in this picture in 2005, posted by the journalist and sign kolg critic, tony ortega, who broke this story. shelly hasn't been seen in many

years. making her whereabouts, a source of feverish speculation, among the church's many critics. janet wrightman is the author of "inside scientology." >> she was his wife. she was hz close adviser. she would have been an integral part of every aspect of his life. her absence has been quite noticed by, particularly people, who have been in the upper echelons of the church, the executives. >> reporter: hours after leah remini filed that missing persons report, the lapd told abc news, quote, the case is closed. and that the report that shelly is missing is unfounded. overnight, the church released a statement, saying this ill-advised, ludicrous self-promotion, and the media inquiry it generated, caused an inexcusable distraction for the lapd. the entire episode was nothing more than a publicity stunt for miss remini. janet wrightman, says the church must see remini as a challenge. >> of course they're worried about her.

leah remini really believed in this. she feels quite betrayed. >> as for shelly miscavige, the lapd says she is alive. her detectives have met with her within the past two days. interestingly, the lapd said this is not the first time they've had a missing persons report filed on shelly miscavige. fascinating story. back to you. >> nothing short of stunning. thank you, dan. we're going to bring in dan abrams here with more. and, dan, you were just saying, after letting this go for a bit, we're now seeing the church fire back in a way, perhaps, we've become accustomed to. >> it's clear this is now an all-out war between leah remini and the church of scientology. dan harris and i were talking backstage about this. about the fact you haven't seen language like this from the church, against her up to this point. they've been trying to be careful. they've been using kid gloves. now, they're going after her. you heard that statement. this is now an all-out battle.

>> the lapd, rather quickly confirmed this was a closed case. what would they have done to have done that? >> they have to take the report. then, the question is establishing how viable it is. is there a missing person there? that's the first thing they did here. a lot of people were saying, what are they going to do to establish she's missing? they did what you expect them to do in any case. they went and found her. and they talked to her. and they've now determined, okay, she's not missing. this is unfounded. they could have said we're going to leave this open. we haven't made any determination. they came out and called this closed and said this is unfounded. >> and then, what about the people who are out there saying, this still doesn't sound kosher? this sounds suspicious. we haven't seen shelly in public for a number of years. >> it's a fair question to ask. on the one hand, people are allowed to disappear. you're allowed to go underground

for whatever reason. as long as you're not being kidnapped. you're allowed to do that. the question is, what led her to do that? and that's what's leading to all of the questions. why would she have suddenly done that? that's a separate question. >> certainly, many more questions here, dan. thank you for that. we're going to turn, now, for another look at the weather. and sammy, how -- it's looking rather autumnal. >> i know. some folks have had a very cool august. autumnal. >> he pulled that word out. >> autumnal. that's nice. >> i'm the bad guy. >> no. it's lovely. we love it. we love it. love to say it. here's what's going on, international falls. it's 48. two mornings now with record-low temperatures. yesterday in the 30s. it doesn't feel -- some would say fall-like. others would say autumnal. it doesn't feel like august. and that's what you need to remember. as we drop this -- as we drop that jet stream down, and we

they tried to say i was bad at it. but i was the next to last place and not last place. since yesterday's show, i got on the phone myself. nicole: ok. because i know you were last. michael: i was not last. your husband is trying to make himself feel better by breaking me down. but i got on the phone and i talked to my partner, mark, who is my business partner who is also in the league and i am joining mark's team. i'm back, people.

[laughter] that's why you're laughing because everybody doesn't have a baby at home -- i mean, at the hospital. but this baby, anna, she's waiting for the long island rail road train and she was overcome with labor pains. she had a six pound 12-ounce

little boy named oscar. so congratulations. nicole: wow. [applause] michael: can you imagine you're waiting for the train and all of a sudden -- nicole: no, i cannot. i can't even -- i mean, kudos to the moms who give birth at home. it's a beautiful thing. i'm too dramatic. i can't do it. i had one pain. i was like i've got to go. take me to the hospital. i have got to go. michael: if it were me and i'm in the subway and some lady -- oh, my water broke. i'm like somebody get some hot towels! i saw that in an old western movie. nicole: yes. michael: so that's all i would know. and after that, i was like whey what do i do with it? could i get another lady to -- push, push. i hold her hand. but that is great. congratulations to you and little oscar. nicole: congratulations. there's a story about another kid, a 4-year-old, bobby, he is the mayor of a small minnesota town. look how cute he is.

and he's 4. michael: is it a make-believe town or is it a real town? nicole: no, i think his town is to great everybody in the morning. which by the way, my son's almost 4, and he wouldn't even do that. that's great. michael: because that makes me feel like my kids are lazy. nicole: right if my son wouldn't do that. michael: my son wouldn't be early enough to great people in the morning. he would be like they can wake up themselves. welcome to the town, people. put it in a video. i love his outfit too. nicole: i know. he's got the little leg crossed. he's cute. [laughter] michael: look at the leg cross. he's got on some sandals. he's got the little hat with the tilt on it. got the brim tilted. well there, you go. bert tough, dorsett, minnesota. oh, has a population of less than 30. [laughter] nicole: well, he's still

greating them in the morning. michael: that's awesome. he's in the running again for mayor. if you don't vote for bobby, boy, you are mean. you don't like kids. gelman: you win by lottery in that town. [laughter] michael: you know, you do a lot of facials, right? your skin looks flawless. do you get facials? nicole: i've actually never had a facial. michael: what? nicole: no. michael: all that is natural? nicole: well, i use products. the squeezing? no. and by the way, i've had a massage like twice. i'm not one -- michael: you're pissing out on some of the greatest -- missing out on some of the greatest joyce of life. nicole: i laugh by myself -- this is embarrassing. i laugh all the time. and the only thing i think about -- the second i walk in -- michael: are you ticklish like that? really? [laughter]

really? oh, i didn't notice you were ticklish. i had no idea. [laughter] so you can't even get a massage? nicole: no and i also laugh all the time by myself and every time i walk in that room, i think please don't laugh. do not laugh. and then i'm stuck there for an hour. and of course, every funny thing that's ever come to me in any life, and i try not to laugh and then little spits -- it's just bad. it's not good. i'm not good at that stuff. michael: i get facials. nicole: no, i can tell. you've got very soft skin. well, you could shave a little bit right here. michael: some days, i get it in, some days, i don't. i like to preserve my pretty. you know what i'm saying? [laughter] there's these facials all the time. there's one where they put these snails on your skin and the snails walk across your face. nicole: what does that do? michael: the suction. i guess the goo?

game yeah. michael: there's a new one. it's $180. and it's a japanese treatment. it uses imported asian nightingale ex meant -- excrement mixed with rice brand. -- bran. what that really is is bird poop. they make up a nice little thing and -- nicole: like a mask? so it has to sit there? michael: oh, yeah. nicole: wow. now, is it a certain bird? michael: it's animation nightingale bird. an asian nightingale. but who figures that out? nicole: it was not me. michael: like you're walking down the street and the bird poops on your skin and you're like ooh, that one spot, it sure is clean. let's get some more nightingale. let's make it happen again. gelman: light bulb! michael: $180 to get pooped on

your face. nicole: would you do it? michael: no, i'm good. i get the steam and some other treatments and then the massage of the face and all that stuff because i like to preserve my pretty. [laughter] that's what i do. and your hairstyle, i like it. it looks good. nicole: thank you. thanks. thanks so much. [applause] thanks, guys. michael: but do you change it up a lot? nicole: i do. i change my hair all the time. i used to dye my hair different colors four times a year. when i was in my 20's, i would go blonde in the summer and then dark in the winter and red. michael: so quarterly? nicole: yeah. i used to dye it all the time. michael: that says a lot about -- says your hair sanchez lot about you. most of the audience has different hairstyles. for women, limp. see if you relate to this. 74% of males find long hair more attractive than short hair. nicole: i have heard that. michael: my man looking like my would have's hair is short.

i better not saying anything. [laughter] they find short hair, sexy, fun, young, and wife material. ooh. nicole: ok. michael: somebody like i'm going to grow mine out. medium length hair suggests you're intelligent and good natured and short length hair is the most debated. but it shows that you're an outgoing and confident woman to have short hair which i agree because not every woman can wear short hair. what about when you cut bangs? nicole: i cut bangs and then i grow them out all the time. anybody that's had issues, we cut them and we love them for like three days and then you wash them and realize you have to blow dry them and cut them again and it's the thing. and you bobby pin them. it's really bad. they have to fall nice. and i like to just take a shower and then make it messy and go. but with bangs, you have to blow dry them every single day and trim them so they don't get too long. michael: so you don't want to

look that commercial or that cartoon where that dog in his eyes. women with wavy eyes are seen as the most likable and approachable. nicole: oh, that's me. michael: you have curly hair. nicole: am i likable? and approachable? michael: yes. i'm going to approach you and tickle you. [laughter] and those are straight -- stick straight hair, you're more serious and efficient. that's how men view you, which for every woman out there doesn't mean anything. we're all crazy. we don't know what we like and what we want. nicole: i have a question. are you good at spelling? michael: oh, yes. [laughter] i was a spelling bee champ. i really was. nicole: but how are you now? you were? michael: yeah. nicole: how are you now michael: let me see the words first. nicole: we found the list of the most frequently missed spelled words. ready? michael: ok.

nicole: i'll business. michael: b-u-s-i-n-e-s- smeds. --s. nicole: o.j. lollipop pop. -- lollipop. michael: l-o-l-l-i-p-o-p. nicole: this is good.

[applause] well, two out of three. i'm not bad. nicole: yeah. you're good. michael: are you a good speller?

nicole: i used to be but everything has spell check. and they always correct it with a word i don't even want to use. michael: i still type the word out. i love spelling and i love numbers. nicole: ok. michael: i'm like a freak. [laughter] in that way. yes. art, why are you laughing, man? you know something i don't know? you want to talk to me? and it's funny because people do some crazy things. now, you ever gotten a ticket, like from a cop for like speeding? nicole: sure. michael: ok. violation. ving michael: a moving violation. last boy in boyton beach, florida. there was a motorist which he got pulled over for not wearing your seat belt. stay safe. that's phenomenal. nicole: absolutely. [applause] michael: and she gets pulled over and she gets so angry for the cop for writing her a ticket that she called 911 to complain

for getting a ticket and was charged with misusing 911 which is punishable by up to a year in jail in florida. nicole: wow. michael: yeah. how much easier would it be just to try to buckle up? he's just trying to save your life. yeah, that is absolutely crazy. do not call 911 if you get pulled over for a ticket. it's misuse of the system. save it for people who need it that's what we got to do, all right?

man. you have this great passion for technology which we all know. did that draw you more into the role that you wanted to be a part of it? >> yeah. you know, it's funny. this is -- this movie is like the perfect convergence of the things i'm passionate in and my craft. and being able to play someone that you admire and that so many people admire is like a really big pressure for me. i have a lot of friends and coworkers that knew steve and love steve, i didn't want to let them down. i threw myself at this one pretty hard. the daunting thing, i was afraid, these technologists and all this and i was afraid the movie was going to be supertechy but what he really was an artist. and i think that the story of his life is a story of a guy that started from really humble beginnings and came up and just wanted to build one -- want to make something great. and anybody who's had like a

dream or an aspiration and come against challenges and hard times and difficulty, i think they'll really be able to relate to the character in the movie. nicole: and how did you prepare for the role? >> three months -- i had three months to prepare. i started by just consuming everything about steve jobs i could find, books and videos and there's so much of his life that's online. which made it even scarier because a lot of the scenes in the movie, you can put side by side with the real events. but then i took from that, i tried to figure out what were the things that he read and what were the things that he did? so i read the books that he read and i checked out the entrepreneurs that he admired and the artists that he appreciated and listened to the music he listened to and ate the food that he ate and to try to see the world the way he saw it. so that when i was playing him, it was somewhat second nature to react to things the way he would. michael: i heard you took on his

fruitarian diet that did not have a good effect on you. he only ate fruit. >> yeah. there was a book that he wrote d it was the mucus-free diet system. i'm bastardizing the name. in the thing, it tells you that grape juice sugar is the greatest thing that you could possibly have. i started following the diet which was mostly like grapes and apples and carrots but i would go like a week where i would just eat grapes and a week that i would just eat carrots. food was one of the things that he had a lot of discipline around. got ah, my insulin level us way off and i -- off and i ended up with pancreas issues. three days before shooting. that was the worst pain. it's so painful i couldn't like -- i couldn't get off of the floor. and luckily like the day before we started shooting, it bounced

back out. michael: did they start feeding your cheeseburgers or something? [laughter] i don't know. >> no. they put me on like the maximum dosage of medicine that they could put me on. my rabbi was in the hospital at the exact same time for something and i went and woke up and i went and met him and read the toro with him and i felt better. and it was a very bizarre thing. and it passed. michael: yeah. we're going to take a look at the clip. and you -- steve jobs, you are steve jobs. in this clip, you're talking to the staff about the company's future. >> yeah. michael: so let's take a look at ashton kutcher and "jobs." >> do you know why people buy an apple? why do they buy an apple and not the competter? because it's got bravado. it's social status.

it's even more than that. it's social currency. we've raised the bar. and if we want to stay there, we got to risk everything. great artists, dylan, picasso, newton. they risked failure. and if we want to be great, we've got to risk it too. [applause] nicole: "jobs" opens next friday, august 16. and we'll open up the "inbox" when we come back. michael: ashton kutcher. announcer: tuesday on "live," "true blood" star joe manganiello.

[applause] nicole: now owe know more about me. michael: that's a but crack cross. interesting. nicole: to my defense, i was 16 and it wasn't the place -- the only reason i put it there is because i don't want my parents to see it i didn't know it was a bull's-eye. michael: yeah. i'm not going to comment any further than that. i know your husband. that's your web series "candidly nicole" on a.o.l. based on your twitter. it's cool. nicole: yeah. we've been studying what people are relating to the most and what people found the most funny and then we go and we kind of go

off of that. so every week, it's a new tweet from me and then we go into a little deeper. michael: why didn't i think of that? nicole: because i did. [laughter] michael: let's get to the "inbox." this is something that i have some control over. in yesterday's "inbox," we talked about how lionel richie, somebody wrote and calls nicole by her siblings's name and madison thinks you think that bad, try having your mom call you the name of your of your dogs. nicole: ooh. is it a cute dog, at least? i'll be ok with that. janet from maryland said michael might want to talk to his doctor -- this is from yesterday, about having to get up in the middle of the night at 66, my husband sleeps all night without overnight pull-ups. so you have some work to do. you're obviously doing something wrong. [laughter] [applause] gelman: got to watch that.

michael: i mean, maybe your husband's not hydrated enough. i don't know. [laughter] maybe that's the problem. maggie from lewisville, texas, says you always seem so put together. but do you do a lot of cooking? if so, what's your specialty? >> i love to cook for my kids. i would love to cook every day. it's not realistic for me just because i'm working. michael: what's one signature -- i where the kids go mommy, we've got to have this. nicole: we are gluten-free but i believe you don't have to eat little foods be gluten-free because i like real food. i make a great gluten-free pasta, pancakes. michael: when are we coming over to eat? nicole: well. michael: i got kicked out of the league. now you don't even feed me. i've got to work on your family. i really do. nicole: you're gone. you're in new york. and we miss you. michael: i'll fly back just for

your cooking. nicole: sherry from providence. my dad is a faithful viewer of the show. i believe his has bit of a man crush on michael but constantly gets his name wrong. he calls him michael stainrod. [laughter] [applause] michael: you know what, sherry? nicole: i say the same thing, weirdly. michael: as long as he calls me, i'm happy. all right, everybody, that's all "inbox." stay right there. when we come back, brett eldredge will perform for us. announcer: if you'd like more information, anything you see on "live," log on our website, livekellyandmichael.com.

>> rachael: okay, guys. so it being a tip-off show, i wanted to do a recipe i thought would be a crowd pleaser, people pleaser. it's a great make ahd. people think meatballs, they think of what? meatballs and red sauce or tomato sauce. meatballs can be more, people. i will make meatloaf meatballs that i serve w with horseradish mashed potatos and gravy. meatballs are terrific make-ahead meal. keep on hand in t freezer and throw them in the freezer and heat them up while having mashed potato or making simple rice to go along with it. to make 18 large meatballs, three per person, six adult portions, i start with two

pounds of ground sirloin, nice lean ground sirloin, tastes steaky. a lot of people have the idea that ground turkey is somehow leaner. ground turkey is mixture of light and dark meat,ame fat content of ground beef chuck. if you want something very lean, go with ground sirloin or the flavor of turkey, ground turkey breast. to the two pounds, i'm going to add quarter cup of worcestershire sauce, two round tablespoons of dijon mustard, a little chopped flat-leaf parsley to keep the meatloaf meatballs nice and moist, one egg, plus one egg yolk beaten together and a few slices of good quality light bread i've taken the crust off and soaked in milk. squeeze the excess milk out and these moist crumbs will keep the meatballs, especially because you make meatballs instead of

meatloaf, ensure they stay nice and moist. crumble that between your fingertips as you add to the bowl. now for the aromatic for this, for the flavor in the meatball, sweat out -- in other words, cook up and cool down whatever flavor you not-for-profit there. i have fresh thyme, celery, onion and garlic, chop that small, cook it up and deglaze the pan. i deglaze it with dry sherry or use a splash of wine. let that cool completely and the reason i don't just put raw in the meat, i don't feel it cooks evenly or all the way through, you will eat the meatloaf and bite down on hard piece of oni or celery, sweat that out first, let the vegetablo their thing and get nice and tender and cool it down. this was one onion chopped, two celery chopped, four cloves of garlic chopped or grated. couple tablespoons of fresh thyme and deglaze the pan with just a little dry sherry, i love

the flavor of sherry with meat. put your aromatics in. and the st and pepper. lots of coarse black pepper. i like kosher salt, makes nice crust on it. bake these so theyon't getoo oily. make large meatballs, i've got the oven preset to 400, mix this up and get my meatballs in the oven, spray them down with olive oil cooking spray and pop them when we come back, make mashed oil cooking spray and pop them when we come back, make mashed potatoes and gry. okay, a? b? b. a? that's a great choice. let me show you some faucets to go along with that. with the latest styles and guaranteed low prices, you can turn the bath you have into the bath you want. good choice. more saving. more doing. that's the power of the home depot.

and bring to boil. cook potatoes until tender, drain them and put them back in the hot pot so the moiste can evaporate. get them going with a masher. then i'm going to add about three quartersf a cup to a cup of sour cream or greek yogurt if you want it super tang. and then about three tablespoons ofof prepared horseradish. and then a little bit of cream or half and half. my husband likes sxhafl half in his coffee, i use quarter cup of that. then a in about a quarter cup of fresh chopped chives and black pepper and salt to taste. now when you want to make the mashed potatoes ahead of time, great tip for thanksgiving. mash them up so they are perfect consistence and heake a larger pot, put a smamall amount of water, inch of water in the

bottom and bring to a gentl simmer. set the smaller pot into that bath and they will stay perfect all day. the pan starts to get dry, add more water to it. make a little ben marie. if you don't like it spicy, another great mix-up, mash up the potatos with milk or half and half and mix in garlic and herb cheese, also delicious. there's that, those guys are done. over here, i melted half a stick of butter, four tablespoons of butter, whisk in four tablespoons of flour, to that, i added store bought stock in a box, about a couple cups, two, 2-1/2 cups, let that thicken up and flavor it up, not by adding fake gravy flavor, put in worcestershire sauce to deepen the flavor. whisk in worcestershire and my mother always tempers an egg, one egg yolk, by temper i mean raise the temperature so it

doesn't scramble when you add down in the gravy. by adding egg yolk to gravy, it glosses them, they look shine and he glossy, it keeps the flavor on your tongue longer. it adds nice depth of flavor. use your ladle, to add hot liquid down to the egg yolk, to temper it and pour it back into the pan and whisk it up. now we've got gravy complete, smooth, pretty, silky, shiny, we've got mashed potatoes set to go. check on the meatballs and meet you back here and plate it up.
