[ scene_break ] carly : every designer has their version of the little black dress . morris : uh , i do n't claim to be an expert , but it 's hot . carly : well , that 's expert enough for me , mr. morris . craig : is n't she the best ? [ carly laughs ] carly : well , you 're biased , darling . i 'm just so , so happy you agreed to meet with us . i hated how things turned out the last time we all worked together . craig : sweetheart , he does n't need a recap . carly : craig and i have learned from our mistakes and do not intend to repeat them , do we , sweetheart ? craig : absolutely not . carly : and i do believe that the three of us could make monte carlo quite a profitable business this time . morris : uh , i 'll need to get an okay from my partners . craig : you can phone from the lobby if you want privacy . morris : good . see you in a bit . craig : i am so proud of you . mmm ! jack : carly . what the hell are you doing ?

[ door slams ] [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] paul : maybe you were james ' pawn . it 's not impossible for me to believe that something like that might be true . but i will never forgive you for what you have done . emily and i had all but given up on having a baby , and you come to town , and you see that she is vulnerable , and you just dig in . you give my wife false hope . you do n't care what happens as long as she does n't figure out that it 's a hoax . and when she does figure it out , you put her in a coma . my wife could have died , and you did n't care , just so long as your little plan did n't fall apart . wow . i got to give it to dear old dad , you know ? he never gave up . but he does n't control me . not anymore . so just know what i 'm doing , i 'm doing because it 's what i want .

[ scene_break ] carly : what are you doing here , jack ? jack : i 'm working , carly . there was a hit - and - run outside . i 'm looking for witnesses . why are you kissing craig ? or is that part of the job now ? carly : get off your high horse . i thought you were gon na stop judging people . is n't that what you said ? i guess that resolution wore off right quick . jack : [ sighs ] you 're right . i apologize . i am sorry . but i walked in and i saw the two of you together , i lost it a little bit . you ca n't go down that road again , carly . craig is dangerous . carly : are you talking about me or you ? jack : both . i know i do n't have a claim on you , and i have no right to be jealous . but guess what ? i am . carly : come on . you -- you do n't think -- jack : no , i do n't think . when i came in here and i saw the two of you , i was n't thinking . i just reacted . carly : well , at least you can see that . that 's progress . jack : so , what was that , carly ? why did you kiss him ? carly : it 's not real . just trying to woo an investor -- that guy on the phone over there . jack : i still do n't understand where the kissing comes in . carly : well , we have to pretend we like each other . it 's a long story , but it 's not real . jack : yeah , maybe not for you . but craig was into it , and you 're just feeding into this fantasy he 's got about the two of you . carly : that 's his problem . i need this , jack . i need something in my life . i ca n't just sit around , being miserable because things did n't work out between the two of us . i need a project . i need something that i can hold in my hands when i 'm done with it . jack : i understand that , but why does it have to be with craig , carly ? he lied to you . he dumped you for your sister . carly : thank you so much for reminding me . jack : you 've opened the door . he 's never gon na quit . you know that . carly : you know what ? i 've had enough of this ! i -- i need to live my life without you in it , which means you do n't get a say in what i do or who i do it with . how many times do i have to say it before you hear it ? i want you to leave me alone . jack : fine . i 'll leave you alone . carly : thank you . jack : but i know you . and the reason you 're so upset is because you know i 'm right . craig is no good for you . carly : some people could say the same thing about you . jack : maybe . but unlike montgomery , i do n't have an agenda . carly : of course you do . you ca n't be with me , but you do n't want me to be with anybody else . jack : you win . just be careful . craig : i thought jack was gon na drag you out by your hair . carly : i do n't want to hear it from you either . craig : oh , do n't worry . i would n't presume to tell you what to do . you 're a strong , independent woman . carly : can we just stick to business , please ? craig : fine . all i was going to say is that jack should be taking care of his wife , not following you around . carly : he 's not . he 's working . craig : then what was that all about ? carly : ask him if you want to know so badly . what 's taking morris so long ? craig : oh , he , um -- he works with his three sons . he likes to pretend that he cares what they think , so before he makes a business deal , he calls all three and asks about the grandkids , the whole deal . it always works out , though , because the boys just do whatever morris wants them to . carly : and you think he wants to back us ? craig : if he did n't , he would n't bother calling . he 'd just say no . frankly , i think he just wanted to make sure that you and i are gon na play nice with each other from now on . carly : you went a little overboard with that kiss . craig : and yet it worked . we 're back in business . is n't that great ? carly : yeah , great . and since you 're so positive we 've got a deal , you wo n't mind wrapping it up on your own . craig : car -- carly , you ca n't leave ! [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] paul : hey . dear old dad . how are you ? i was , uh , just about to kill you . any final words ? uh , are you telling me to turn it off ? you want me to pull the plug ? with pleasure .

[ scene_break ] carly : i need to talk to you , now . you got a lot of nerve , making a scene like that in the middle of an important business meeting . you could have blown that whole deal for me , the way you were acting . jack : i know . i said i was sorry . i walked in . i saw the two of you together . i -- i admitted i was jealous . carly : do you think you 're the only one who 's jealous , jack ? so am i . jack : of what ? carly : janet , that she gets to be your wife , that she 's the one that you go home to . and i 'm sure that probably makes me a horrible person , considering everything she 's going through , but then what 's new , right ? no one 's ever made the mistake of calling me a saint . jack : i guess it 's hard on both of us then , is n't it ? carly : the difference is i do n't go charging into your life , trying to interfere . jack : carly , i ca n't stop caring about you . and craig -- i really do n't care that he says this is just business . he said that when you two went into the vodka company together . so you know what that tells me ? it tells me he wants you back . carly : do you have so little faith in me ? do you think i 'm so weak that i would just let myself be taken in by him again ? jack : come on , carly . that 's not what i said , and that 's not the point . carly : you 're damn right it 's not . the real point is that you go home to your wife every night , and i 'm alone . well , you know what ? maybe it feels good to be around a man who actually wants me . maybe that 's what i need . jack : you think i do n't want you ? liberty : hey . um , is jack here ? cop : yeah . he 's in there . liberty : thanks . [ knock on door ] jack : what is it ? liberty : it 's liberty . carly : oh , my god . jack : yeah . hey . i , uh -- liberty : hi . jack : are n't you supposed to be at a chemo appointment ? liberty : oh , yeah . but they canceled it . something about my white blood cells being completely nonexistent . uh , but they 'll figure something out , try something eventually . jack : really ? liberty : yeah . jack : uh , okay . that 's -- that 's okay . there are -- there are a lot of alternatives they can try , right ? liberty : yeah , like a bone - marrow transplant . it 's not really for me . jack : why not ? liberty : i know you guys all got tested . jack : yes , as a precaution . that 's -- that 's all . liberty : yeah , but there are no matches . jack : i 'm -- i 'm not even sure they know that yet , liberty . liberty : no , yeah . well , i -- i called the lab , and they told me . and those are my blood relatives , so -- jack : okay . hey , but listen , we 'll find somebody . we 've only scratched the surface of the snyder clan , okay ? and then we have n't even started with the ciccones . liberty : good luck with that . jack : there may not be even a possibility that you 'll need one , okay ? it 's -- it 's good to stay positive . you have to . liberty : jack , i am . i 'm -- i 'm fine . i just -- i have n't told my mom that there are no matches yet . jack : oh . liberty : yeah , and i think kind of looking for donors has kept her going , and i 'm just really worried that she 's gon na be upset when i tell her . so would you maybe mind coming home with me and helping me break the news ? jack : yeah . no , not at all . liberty : okay . jack : did you -- did you -- did you walk all this way just to talk to me ? liberty : mm - hmm . jack : are you kidding me ? um -- i 'm just gon na need a minute , and i 'll drive you back to the farm . liberty : okay . jack : we 'll talk to your mom together , all right ? liberty : thanks .

[ scene_break ] lily : i 'm sorry , i ca n't help you . i can not help you run away . is this what you want for parker ? to be a fugitive for the rest of his life ? carly : no . of course not . i want him to grow up happy and healthy in his own home . but they are not gon na let that happen . the judge wants to try him as an adult . he could go to jail for 20 years because of me . i 'm the reason he pulled that trigger . lily : i understand . believe me , i do . but do n't you think by running , you 're only making matters worse ? carly : he was protecting me , lily . i have to protect him . i look at parker , i do n't see an adult . i see my little boy . and i can not bear the thought of him in jail . please . think about everything you did to help luke . can i do any less ? lily : hello , this is lily snyder . i need the jet to be prepared for a flight this evening .

[ scene_break ] jack : hey , where 'd you go ? i wanted you to talk to parker with me . carly : i 'm sorry . i just needed some air . i ca n't believe margo let this happen . jack : oh , it 's not her fault . we just got to fight harder , that 's all . we promised parker we would n't let anything bad happen to him . we ca n't break that promise . carly : we already have . jack : we can still win this , carly . but we 've got to stay strong . parker has to see us confident . carly : unfortunately , i do n't have as much faith in the justice system as you do . jack : i promise you , we will get through this . carly : believe me , jack , i do want what 's best for parker . and i will do whatever it takes to make sure he 's okay . jack : well , i 'm glad to hear that . now , i 've got to get back to the station . i 've got some work i 've got to do . i 'll be back to check on him . carly : okay . parker ! get your clothes . parker : why ? carly : we 're leaving . parker : where are we going ? carly : remember the night of the shooting , you asked me to take you away and i said no ? i changed my mind . parker : so have i . carly : i told you i would n't let them put you in prison . this is the only way i can be sure that wo n't happen . parker : yeah , well , dad 's not going to like it . he just gave me a whole speech about facing what i did and fighting for justice . carly : jack 's a cop . of course he believes in justice . so do i , in theory . but i would n't bet the farm on it . i 'm sure not going to bet you on it ! parker : where would we go ? carly : you decide . we 'll go wherever you want . parker : yeah , but even if we run away , or if i change my name , it 's still me , right ? so , what 's the point ? carly : the point is to get away before they put you away . and then you can figure out what 's next . you can take all the time you need . parker : i 'll go pack my clothes . [ scene_break ] lily : okay , okay -- you 're right , you 're right . no more secrets . no more secrets . carly asked me to get my mother 's jet to take parker out of the country . holden : i hope you said no . lily : i did . holden : good . lily : and then i changed my mind . holden : lily , you could be charged with aiding and abetting . lily : i know , holden , but if one of our children -- would n't you do anything to help them ? holden : carly should not be making this decision alone . lily : jack would n't approve it , you know that . holden : yeah , for good reason . lily : just be honest , what would you do ? what would you do if it were luke or ethan ? holden : there is only one choice , and you know what that would be . [ scene_break ] judge : i 'd like to hear what this young man has to say . mr. snyder , have a seat . now , what can you tell me about ms. duran 's state of mind at the time of the adoption ? aaron : i just want to say that , um , i feel real bad for sofie . i think she 's a great person , i really do . i think she 's going to make a great mother one day . but just not right now . graham : objection . this man 's opinion has no bearing on -- judge : just please confine your answers to ms. duran 's state of mind when she gave the child up for adoption . aaron : before gwen and will even knew who the birth mother was , sofie was n't sure about even having the baby . cole , her boyfriend at the time , wanted her to have an abortion , and sofie agreed . but she just could n't go through with it . graham : which shows she wanted to keep the baby -- judge : counselor , i 'm warning you -- aaron : she was hoping that he would change his mind , but he did n't . he told her that she had to decide between him and the baby . cole was the one who suggested that sofie give her up for adoption . judge : did it seem to you that she was being coerced ? aaron : yes , at the time . and then alison and i figured out what cole was up to , that he was trying to sell the baby . we then told gwen and will . they were absolutely against adopting the baby under those circumstances . as a matter of fact , they even offered to help sofie keep the baby . then cole broke up with sofie and she freaked out . she told me she did n't want the baby . it was completely her decision to give her up for adoption . i do n't think she was emotionally ready to have a kid . graham : yes , that may have been true then , but she 's ready now . judge : are you sure that this is how ms. duran felt at the time ? aaron : well , we worked together , we were friends . but i 'm hallie 's godfather , so obviously , i 'm very close to gwen and will . and i just want what 's best for hallie . judge : and what , in your opinion , is best for hallie ? aaron : that would be for you to decide . all i know is -- is that gwen and will were able and ready to be great parents from the beginning . [ scene_break ] luke : noah , wait . i did n't mean to upset you . noah : luke , you are the one person i thought i could count on to understand . how can you say i should forgive my father ? luke : well , i do n't say it because i think he deserves it . i 'm saying it because i think you deserve it . you deserve to let go of all this anger . look , noah , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to upset you . noah : yeah , me too . my dad is still making my crazy . luke : well , that 's -- that 's what i 'm saying . look , no matter what i say , whether you decide to make up with your dad or not , you need to know one thing . no matter what , i 'm going to be on your side . you got that ? noah : i got it . luke : good , now how about you help me with the barn chores ? put some of that anger to good use . noah : let me just put my bag down . [ scene_break ] aaron : sofie is a good person . but the fact is , it was n't her instinct to put the baby first . so , i think gwen and will deserve to be hallie 's parents . judge : thank you , mr. snyder . there is a lot to absorb here . i 'm going to have to go over all the testimony in detail . and i 'll let you know when i 've reached my decision . this hearing is adjourned . [ scene_break ] parker : we did n't get to say good - bye to j.j. or sage . carly : i 'll call them when we 're out of the country , okay ? parker : yeah , well , they 're going to hate you and hate me . carly : sit down . sweetie , right now , this is the way i can protect you . and once we get settled , i will figure out a way to reunite us all . i will never abandon this family again . do you hear me ? parker : yeah . carly : okay , now we have to tell the pilot where we 're going to go , so it 's up to you . anywhere you want . what do you think of that ? jack : i think it 's the worst idea you 've ever had . carly : how did you find us ? jack : that 's not important . i 'm just glad i got here in time to stop you . parker , come on , let 's get out of here . carly : you stay right there . if he does n't leave with me now , he could end up in prison . is that what you want ? jack : no , carly , of course not . but skipping town , that 's -- that 's not the answer . at least with a trial , he has a chance at a good outcome . carly : there 's also a chance for a bad one . and i 'm not going to risk that . jack : even if you get away with running , it 's not going to solve anything , carly . he -- he 'll be burdened for the rest of his life , guaranteed . not to mention the fact that he 'll be ripped away from everything and everyone he cares about . carly : he 'll have me . he 'll be free . he 'll be safe . jack : what , you call this free ? living in hiding . he 'll be ripped away from his family and friends forever . did you even think about that ? no . no . because you do n't think anything through . you just do the first thing that pops into your head , no matter how crazy . carly : and what if he goes to jail ? the son of a cop . what will happen to him then ? did you think about that ? how will you protect him then ? [ scene_break ] lily : what kind of friend am i ? agreeing to help carly and then ratting her out . holden : you 're a good friend , who 's looking out for her and for her family . lily : somehow , i do n't think she 's going to see it that way . is n't that one of the things we teach our children not to do ? not be a snitch ? holden : we had to tell jack . lily : i 'm beginning to think this honesty thing is a little overrated . holden : you know , aaron came by earlier . he 's facing a tough decision about whether or not to testify at gwen and will 's custody hearing . lily : so what did you tell him ? holden : i told him not to take the easy way out . lily : sometimes , you have to do things that are difficult . holden : and that 's what you just did . i 'm very proud of you . [ scene_break ] noah : you know , i do n't know how you do it , but even when i 've completely made up my mind about something , you always get me to reconsider . luke : read the letter again . see if it 's sincere . noah : that 's weird . i could have sworn i left this closed -- you did n't -- you did n't go into it for anything , did you ? luke : uh , i was the guy mucking out the stall next to you . when would i have done that ? i mean , maybe you just forgot that you left your bag open . noah : it 's gone . [ scene_break ] alison : i know that was hard . you did a really good thing . will : hey , thank you . we really appreciate you stepping up for us like that . gwen : yeah , thank you . because of you , we have a better chance of keeping hallie . aaron : yeah , i wish i felt better about it . alison : you should . you may have saved hallie from a really hard life . aaron : well , i hope so . because i may have just destroyed sofie 's . [ scene_break ] aaron : sofie ! sofie ! i 'm -- hey , i 'm sorry . look , i had to tell the truth the way i saw it . look , i know you feel like i betrayed you -- sofie : you 're damn right i do . aaron : all i 've ever wanted was what 's best for you and the baby . sofie : who asked you , aaron ? you know , i never wanted your help , you just kept showing up to save the day . and now you probably ruined any chance i had of fixing the mistakes i 've made . aaron : sofie , i 'm your friend , okay ? i 've always been your friend . i still want to be . sofie : you 're kidding , right ? because i never want to see you again for as long as i live . [ scene_break ] carly : just turn around , jack , and let us go . i 'll call you as soon as we land . jack : believe me , if i thought that this were the answer , i 'd have my bags with me right now . carly : this is the only way we can protect him -- jack : no , it 's not , carly ! you know what it 's like to be a fugitive . do you want that for parker ? carly : i do n't know what else to do ! jack : well , as hard as it is , he 's got to stay and face this ! parker : stop it ! okay , it 's my life , not yours . and if i 'm old enough to be tried as an adult , i 'm old enough to choose what i want . and i want to go home . [ scene_break ] lily : that was the pilot . jack got there in time . the plane is not going anywhere . holden : good . lily : you know , if you had n't pushed me , i would n't have told you about carly 's plan . maybe you 're rethinking about our little dinner together . holden : yeah . yeah , you 're right . i am . lily : i said that i wanted to talk to you and i wanted you to tell me whether or not you wanted me to go back to the house or not . but i do n't think i can handle any more truth today . holden : you know what ? you know what ? i 've been telling everybody not to take the easy way out . so i think maybe i should take my own advice . lily : okay . holden : you did the right thing with jack and carly . you 've been working hard , and it 's made me realize that maybe i need to work a little bit harder myself . lily : it still does n't make it clear what it means for us to start over . holden : a lot 's happened . i want to try again . i want to work at it . it 's not going to be easy . so , why do n't you stay out here at the farm ? stay with me and the kids . lily : nothing would make me happier .

katie continues her ruse , but when she gets her period , she finds it hard to cover the fact of how disappointed she is . katie makes an appointment with a fertility specialist when margo is with her , as margo is confused and katie is n't ready to explain the whole thing . margo is bothered by the fact that katie is leaving brad in the dark though . henry is worried that vienna is pregnant , as he admits to brad about how he found vienna punching holes in his condom . this strikes a nerve with brad , who starts to think that katie is trying to get pregnant even though bob told them to wait . brad looks for katie 's diaphragm and ca n't find it , as he later accompanies henry to the hospital so henry can get information on vasectomies . brad finds katie at the hospital and she covers her lie , which bothers margo more . later , when katie sees her stuff is moved , brad confronts her about his suspicions and admits her searched for her missing diaphragm . katie almost comes clean but then claims that she threw it away because she was getting a new one . brad feels badly for doubting her , as katie is wracked with guilt over perpetuating her lie . josie tries to get through to paul because she believes the best in him , as paul tries to dissuade her by planting a kiss on her , as josie pushes him off . meg turns down dusty 's offer for help wanting to do it on her own . dusty intercepts an envelope from paul wanting meg to have all his asset and fairwinds . he goes to see paul and interrupts him and josie without sharing this with meg . paul is furious because he thinks meg sent him over , as they have it out . josie ca n't stand by and watch paul self - destruct over meg , as she bids him goodbye . paul confronts meg , but she tells him that she knew nothing about the papers . meg explains that she does n't want his or dusty 's help . paul becomes insecure over dusty but when their arguing awakes eliza , they work as a team to quiet her , and meg seems moved by paul 's paternal way . josie tries to talk with dusty to explain herself but in the end , she realizes that she has to say goodbye to him . she hopes that he takes a good hard look at what his life has become and works to get himself back on track . even though meg is moved by paul with eliza , she explains that he wo n't be seeing her at the farm anymore – only a neutral location as the judge suggested . paul pleads with her to reconsider putting their daughter through that , but meg stands her ground . paul stops trying to pressure and leaves without a word , as an emotional meg starts to tear up after he leaves .

'cause we 're buying a condo ! but it wo n't be ready for a couple of months . aaron : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait a minute . what do you mean condo ? where 'd you find the money to buy a condo ? alison : well , most of its chris ' . but i chipped in some . aaron : wow , that 's good . so you guys are n't wasting any time , huh ? that 's good . alison : well , i know that we 're moving fast . but we really want to concentrate on our future . and that 's why you and i -- we really have to get moving on that annulment , you know ? aaron : right . well , you said i was gon na be getting some papers or something , right ? alison : yep , you know , i 've got them right here . and all you have to do is sign them and get them notarized . aaron : okay . all right . done . alison : i know that you do n't like chris , but -- aaron : no , come on , ali . that 's not what i 'm thinking . please do n't try to get into my head right now . alison : is n't that what a friend 's supposed to do ? aaron : alison , i 'm very glad everything worked out for you . and i hope that you and chris stay together for a very long time . okay , but right now , it 's a very tough time for me . all i want is another shot with lucy , and she does n't want me anywhere near her . alison : that 's terrible . aaron , i 'm sorry . aaron : well , that 's not the worst part . the other night at metro , that party ? yeah , lucy almost got raped , and i 'm the one that let it happen .

[ craig chuckles ] craig : but , listen , poor little rich boy blames his excruciating life on everybody but himself . he still blames me for his mother . not to mention the rose murder fiasco . no , he thought he saw a way to get to me , and he took it . carly : there 's just one problem with your little theory , craig . and that is that paul did not know that cabot 's adoption was illegal , unless you told him yourself , which i seriously doubt . molly : you must talk dusty out of testifying against me . then the charges get dropped . craig : and in return ? molly : in return , ii forget that i know anything about you helping the cops have a strong case against paul ryan . or anything about you having an involvement with annabelle fettle , `` black market baby broker . `` craig : oh , no , it 's him . carly : you 're looking for a scapegoat , craig . somebody to blame besides yourself . craig : listen , carly , i knew what i did was n't exactly squeaky clean , but i never knew it was illegal . all right ? paul ryan caused us to lose that baby . my new son . so you , you smell whatever perfume you want . i 'm gon na prove he did it .

[ scene_break ] meg : i knew you 'd think it was from paul . craig . holden : what 's he done now ? meg : this . holden : why ca n't he just stay the hell away from you ? meg : because craig plays by his own rules . holden : how long has this been going on ? meg : well , so far , i 've gotten two of these . although , i really do n't know what he hopes to accomplish . it 's so beyond a lost cause . holden : that 's it . i 'm putting a stop to this . meg : how , how ? whoa , wait -- nothing i 've done has worked . holden : i have to do something . i need to somehow get his attention . i do n't know . meg : holden , do n't .

'cause when you least expect it , there i 'll be . paul : go ahead . get me with your best shot . craig : do n't worry , i will . [ scene_break ] meg : okay , look -- the best way to handle craig is to ignore him . i have made my feelings quite clear that i want nothing to do with him . so sooner or later , it will sink in . holden : and what if someone gets hurt in the meantime ? i 'm not taking any chances . i 'm going to the police . [ scene_break ] carly : jack -- parker fired one shot . it was not the shot that killed sam . i know it . jack : okay , calm down . take a deep breath . carly : i 'm positive , jack . i 'm telling you the truth . jack : parker told the police he could n't remember how many shots he fired . it 's in the report . carly : i remember . i remember . there was one shot . it hit sam in the shoulder . now all we have to do it prove it . i need you to come to metro with me . jack : carly , what good would that do ? carly : please , i need you to help me prove that parker 's innocent . [ scene_break ] meg : hey , hey , hey . you ca n't go to the police , because craig sent me flowers and a couple of lame notes . holden : it 's more than that and you know it . meg : okay , look -- he 's just trying to get a rise out of me . and if i do n't react , he 'll get the message and give up . holden : do n't count on it , meg . we both know what he 's capable of . have n't you lost enough because of this guy ? meg : actually , losing my baby was paul 's fault . holden : because he was fighting with craig . meg : holden , please , just let this go . there was a time when i thought i was in love with craig . and in his own twisted way , he loved me . holden : sorry , meg . i ca n't stand by and let this guy hurt you again . when it comes to craig , i 'd rather be safe than sorry . [ scene_break ] craig : you can play all the childish games with this company that you want , but when it comes to my son , you have crossed the line . paul : you play enough dirty tricks with people , craig , it 's gon na come back and bite you . craig : you have no idea what it means to be a father . you have no idea how far a man will go to protect his child . paul : that 's rich . this coming from you . you and bryant , you were n't even on speaking terms when he died , if i remember right . and if you 're such a great dad , how come lucy had to kidnap johnny just to keep him away from you ? craig : johnny is not gone forever . paul : you need to face it craig -- you lost your business , you lost your wife , and you lost your son . you can come back after worldwide , i 'm ready for you . the other parts of your life , craig , they 're gone . they 're done . craig : well , we 'll just he to wait and see how the future unfolds , wo n't we ? [ scene_break ] carly : so , if parker only fired one shot and it hit sam in the shoulder , then it was n't murder . jack : we 've got to prove that . carly : i can do this . jack : are you sure ? carly : for parker . that dummy is so creepy . no wonder parker could n't stand it . jack : he was n't the only one . carly : we ca n't let him go to prison , jack . we have to prove that he did n't shoot twice . that he did n't kill sam . jack : i want that , too . question is , how do we go about doing that ? carly : i guess we start by reenacting everything that happened here . jack : what ? carly : we act out everything that happened that night , step - by - step . [ scene_break ] paul : guess who 's back ? lucinda : well , i heard . i heard . my friend in barbados , my contact , he told me the good news . mr. montgomery failed to take the bait . paul : yeah , i just caught him in my office , with his feet up on my desk , bragging about how it took him less than 24 hours to figure us out . lucinda : do n't let that get you down . we 're still going to trip him up . paul : do n't underestimate him . lucinda : my dear , i never do . i have been dealing with craig 's schemes for more years than i want to count . paul : yeah , but something seems different . he 's got some secret plan for revenge . lucinda : does n't he always ? paul : yes , but now he 's more volatile . he 's making serious threats . and you know the first targets on his list will be the two of us . [ scene_break ] margo : do i want to know why you 're here ? craig : i would like to report a crime . margo : oh , and you 're turning yourself in , saving me the trouble of arresting you . excellent . what have you done ? craig : as much as i know you enjoy interrogating me , i 'm sorry to disappoint , but this has nothing to do with yours truly . margo : well , i doubt that . craig : i would like you to put out an arrest warrant for lucinda walsh . [ scene_break ] lucinda : craig ca n't touch us . we 're united . we have the company . he 's odd man out . paul : yeah , but he 's a very dangerous man . he lives for revenge . lucinda : now , he 's already exacted his revenge on me when he duped lily into giving him worldwide . from that moment on , for me it was all just simple payback . paul : okay , so what 's the payback for the payback ? i know he 's very upset with meg . she 's got to be on his list . i should get to her . i should get to her first and warn her . [ scene_break ] margo : come again ? craig : you heard me . get an arrest warrant for lucinda walsh . [ margo sighs ] margo : and what 's the charge ? craig : conspiracy with evan walsh . margo : evan walsh ? the same evan walsh that held her and lily hostage ? that just does n't add up . where 's your proof ? craig : that 's your job . margo : oh -- is this just some wild guess on your part ? craig : oh , no , no , no . i am sure that there was a conspiracy at memorial involving the research lab , and i know that lucinda and evan walsh were involved . holden : craig -- good , i 'm glad you 're here . i want you to arrest him , right now ! [ laughter ] [ scene_break ] bob : hey . kim : hi . lucinda : my heavens , all hail the conquering hero . you 're up and around already ? congratulations . bob : well , thank you . kim : yes , i tried to keep him home , tried to get him to put his feet up , but no such luck . bob : cabin fever . i can take just so many home cooked meals . kim : do n't you believe a word of that . he is a chow hound and he loves being pampered . bob : too much of a good thing . lucinda : nobody deserves it more than you . and you just look marvelous . bob : thank you . kim : he keeps pushing himself . bob : i want to get back to work . i have to prove to my overprotective wife that i am able to assume my duties as chief of staff again . and that the board is waiting for me to get back in the saddle , is n't that true ? lucinda : oh , my friend -- i 'm just speechless .

[ scene_break ] margo : i ca n't pull a case out of thin air . craig : look , why do n't you subpoena her phone records , detective ? i 'm sure you will see an awful lot of contact between lucinda and evan walsh . margo : she 's on the board of the hospital where evan was doing his research . if there is phone contact between them , that is not suspicious . craig : okay , you know what ? i should never have tried to bring this to the oakdale pd , a bunch of keystone cops . margo : what ? what ? do n't treat me like that ! craig : look , i bring you a case on a silver platter and you 're not even going to investigate it ? fine ! if that 's the system in this town , i will seek my justice elsewhere . margo : wait a minute , craig . what are you going to do ? craig : the only thing left for me to say -- you will see soon enough . margo : no , that sounds very final , craig . craig : bye - bye , margo . i love you , sis . you do what you got ta do , i 'm gon na do what i need to do . let 's just call it that . have a good life , margo .

[ scene_break ] margo : i wanted to ask you again about your association with evan walsh . lucinda : oh . did n't we go over all that on the day that evan was killed ? margo : yes , but i wanted to know , really , you had no contact with him before he moved to oakdale and started his research at memorial ? lucinda : you must remember connor walsh , the evan walsh brother and the takeover of walsh enterprises . there was no way that i would ever have any contact with anyone in that family , let alone evan walsh before he came to oakdale . i certainly kept my distance from him when he was here . margo : mm - hmm . lucinda : until -- margo : mm - hmm . lucinda : he took me hostage and terrorized me and lily , and used us as human shields . margo : yes , yes , yes , yes , yes , and now you sure that 's the extent of the story though ? lucinda : yeah . yes . is somebody pressuring you into asking me these questions ? is craig by any chance , he 's got to be getting desperate . margo : well , you know , normally , i would n't take my brother 's word at face value . lucinda : well , you should stick to that rule , darling . margo : but i am in the middle of an investigation , and it 's my job , and if you do n't want to answer my questions , i can go to somebody else and i can dig a little deeper . lucinda : well , of course . you just dig as much as you want to . you wo n't find anything interesting . margo : hmm , i hope not . thank you .

[ scene_break ] carly : yes . i think she was jealous . right before she left for chicago , she made it sound like i better stay away from her man . jack : after the shooting , parker ran out of here and you ran after him . leaving sam alone in the club with the gun . carly : you think it was kit ? jack : she could have been here . and maybe after you left with parker , she picked up the gun and she fired the second shot that killed sam .

[ scene_break ] jack : the medical examiner 's report confirms what you thought . the first shot hit sam in the shoulder . it was the second one that got him in the heart . carly : so that means , if we can prove that parker only fired one shot , then we 'd prove that he did n't kill sam . jack : that 's what i 'm going for . carly : do you really think it 's really possible that kit came back and fired the second shot ? jack : maybe . maybe she was suspicious , and she wanted to check on sam . the hard part is proving it . cop : here 's the report you 're looking for , detective . jack : thanks , joe . carly : what is that ? jack : this is the information we need to pinpoint kit 's whereabouts on that night of the shooting . carly : bad news ? jack : kit checked into the chicago motor lodge at 6 : 30 on the night of the shooting . carly : does that give her an alibi ? jack : well , no , not necessarily . it takes an hour and a half to get from chicago from oakdale . that 's even when in heavy traffic . carly : mm - hmm . jack : the m.e . 's report puts sam 's time of death at 8 : 15 p.m . carly : so , kit had enough time to come to oakdale that night and fire the shot . jack : and finish off sam . now , we just have to find the evidence to prove it . it 's the only way we 're going to save our son .

'cause i was very careful and very discrete , and there is no way that anyone will see any involvement with me and that maniac . two can play your game . craig : and what game 's that ? lucinda : you got away with murder . craig : yeah . yeah , i have . i hope i do it again . [ scene_break ] carly : so how do we prove that kit came back and killed sam ? jack : maybe this will spark something you did n't think of before . carly : i did n't see any sign of kit , if that 's what you mean . jack : the department is running a check on kit 's cell phone to see if she made any calls that might give us a clue . and we 're running a check to see if she charged any gas or paid an automated toll , on her way into oakdale that would pin down the time . carly : what if we ca n't find any proof that she came back to oakdale , jack ? jack : i 'm not giving up on this , carly . even if i run into a dead end , i will find a way to smoke kit out . carly : how ? jack : maybe cowboy jack can help us .

[ scene_break ] jack : why would you do that ? why would you tell carly we were thinking about having a baby when we have n't even decided on that ourselves ? janet : there 's nothing to decide . liberty 's life is depending on it . jack : no , it 's not , janet ! dr. hearn is changing up her chemo . he has n't called it quits , and he has n't mentioned anything about a bone - marrow transplant for a while now . okay , if it gets to that point , then yes , we will have to make a decision . janet : but it takes nine months to have a baby , and who knows how long it 'll take me to get pregnant ? jack : janet -- janet : no ! i will not stand by while liberty 's leukemia gets worse ! jack : okay , i know you 're scared , i do , and i would do anything for liberty , but this is a life - altering decision we 're talking about ! janet : for liberty it is . jack : what about the baby ? what if he or she turns out not to be a match ? what happens then ? janet : that 's a chance i 'm willing to take ! jack : no , no ! if this happens -- i 'm not saying yes . if this happens , then we have to check with dr. hearn to make sure it 's even feasible . janet : no , we do n't need to check with dr. hearn for anything . jack : what about your beliefs ? where does the catholic church stand on having a baby for the sole purpose of saving the life of someone else ? janet : jack , it 's a baby , and we will love it no matter what . jack : we talked about this . janet : i will not let liberty go without a fight . jack : we talk -- there are plenty of ways to fight this , believe me . janet : why do n't you just admit what 's really going on here . i see the way you and carly look at each other when i walk in to the room . jack : oh , please . i have no idea what you 're talking about . janet : okay . then let me spell it out for you . having a baby is a huge commitment , not just for the baby but for the mother , too , and i know that you would do anything to save liberty 's life , except make a commitment to me . jack : do n't make this about carly . you 're talking about bringing another human being into the world -- not a donor , not a sibling -- a child , janet . janet : do n't you think i know that ? jack : no . i think you 're so worried about liberty that you 're not thinking very straight . janet : what am i supposed to think with my child lying in a hospital bed fighting for her life ? jack : you 're terrified . you 're terrified , and you have every right to be . janet : i do n't know what else to do . jack , the odds are against us . we 're not gon na find another donor unless we do something about it . please do n't say no . jack : just let me think about it . let me think about it , okay ? this is n't just about liberty . this is about the rest of our lives . janet : you 're right , and i know you 're not the type of guy that makes snap decisions , okay ? so , i also know that if we decide to do this , you will be with me all the way . jack : i promise you that . janet : so you 'll think about it ? jack : i will . janet : okay . thank you . i 'm gon na go get these books to liberty right now , but maybe when i come back , we can talk some more about this , okay ? jack : mm . [ scene_break ] carly : oh , please . spare me the `` everything happens for a reason `` speech , because even if it 's true , it does n't mean the reason is good . craig : well , i 'm not talking hypothetical 's , carly . this is reality . something always drives you and jack apart , and yet you keep going back for more . i mean , when 's it gon na be enough ? carly : you do n't understand us . craig : actually , i do . but you do n't have to listen to me . you can call parker , molly . call rosanna in germany . i 'm sure she 'd love to weigh in on the subject . carly : i do not need to take a poll to know what 's best for me . craig : apparently you do . you 're still bouncing back and forth with jack , and you 're acting as if you believe things are gon na work out between you . carly : well , they still could . craig : he 's married , carly , and from the looks of things , he 's gon na stay that way . carly : well , if liberty gets better -- craig : and she will . liberty is gon na make it . but then what ? jack and janet will have a new kid to take care of . well , there goes the next 18 years . how long are you gon na pine after him ? carly : i 'm not pining . craig : you 're making yourself crazy , and for what ? janet is never gon na stop needing jack , and jack is never gon na stop being there for her . he 's a stand- up guy . carly : he does n't love her . craig : we both know that 's not true . it may not be the crazy love that the two of you once had , but he 's devoted to her . carly : because she 's got a sick kid . [ sighs ] craig : the reason does n't matter . he 's not leaving her . carly : shut up , okay ? craig : i 'm sorry . i know this is n't easy for you to hear , but jack does n't belong to you anymore , and he 's never going to . what you had is gone . carly : no . but it will be if he and janet have a baby together , 'cause he 's a good father , and he would never leave her , and janet knows that . so , this is n't even just about saving liberty . she wants to save her marriage . i could n't have done it better myself . craig : well , if janet has jack 's kid , a piece of him will always belong to her . carly : yep . and how can i compete with that ? oh ! oh , stop ! you 're so typical ! completely inappropriate ! i 'll call you about the business plan .

[ scene_break ] carly : janet , i -- i did not come here to pick a fight with you . i care about liberty . i know that she needs all the encouragement she can get . that 's why i 'm here . besides , you asked me to be a part of her team . janet : that was before i knew you 'd use her as an excuse to get closer to jack . carly : pardon me ? janet : you heard me . carly : well , you hear this . i do n't need to use a sick kid to see jack . janet : stay away from him , carly . i am warning you . carly : you know what ? i do n't really want to do this here . janet : well , that 's too bad , because there are only two things that matter to me in this world . one is my daughter , and the other is my marriage . and i will not let you threaten either one of them . carly : i 'm the threat ? janet : he 's over you , carly . there are plenty of other men in this world . find yourself another one . stay away from mine . carly : janet , you do not need me to destroy your marriage . you 're doing a bang - up job of that on your own . janet : what is that supposed to mean ? carly : if you really want to save your relationship with jack , why do n't you go and speak the speech to the person who really needs to hear it ? janet : i have no idea what you 're talking about . carly : i 'm talking about your boyfriend , sweetheart . i 'm talking about dusty donovan . [ next_on ] dusty : you 're all i want . carly : are you seriously considering having a child with janet ? jack : it 's hard to find a reason not to . lily : your little plan blew up in his face , and now he 's in more trouble than he ever was . margo : they demand that you be extradited . lily : why ? margo : to stand trial for damian 's murder .
lily apologizes to holden about how hard she was on him about damian 's disappearance , as she tells him about the ring and goodbye note damian left for her , as molly happens upon this conversation as well . holden is happy to hear this news . luke and noah talk about their relationship and why noah feels he has to move out . luke does n't really understand , but their conversation is interrupted when margo arrives to tell luke about damian 's body being recovered off of the malta coast . luke is very upset and noah tries to comfort him , but luke does n't want him to stay out of guilt . noah tries to help , but luke is sure that he only will be around for a short time and then he will leave again because he feels he has to and he would rather deal with this alone if that is what noah plans on doing . craig talks to his business associate about putting all of his money into monte carlo after getting no bites on financial backing , as his associate , ellis , is sure it is because he wants carly back . molly and holden celebrate by getting a room at the lakeview , as holden is thrilled damian is alive even though he hates him ; he really was worried that he killed him . molly and holden wind up in bed and making plans to go see abigail , which could n't make molly happier . carly wants to tell jack what she knows about janet and dusty , but they are interrupted by janet , who tells carly that they do n't have time to talk because liberty is back in the hospital . carly is worried , but janet is n't too concerned with her reaction ; she is more concerned with telling her that she and jack are going to have a baby for a match for liberty . jack tries to stop her and even explains why , but carly is thrown and leaves quickly . carly goes to see craig talking a mile a minute when he wonders what is going on . she wants to drink , as craig is able to find out why she is so rattled . in a roundabout way , he reinforces subtly that because of this new baby - to - be , her life with jack is now over ; jack will always do the right thing . jack and janet discuss the baby , as jack is clearly not on board because of the lifetime commitment , which is not loss on janet who calls him on it claiming it is because of carly . jack promises to think about it . margo finds a young boy on the docks and learns of damian and another man fighting . luke tells lily about damian , but lily wo n't believe it . she is adamant there has been a mistake and calls margo to tell her about the ring . inadvertently , she tells margo that holden saw damian on the docks and margo puts together that the boy saw holden and damian fighting and goes to find holden . holden is shocked to learn damian is dead , as molly does n't want him to talk . holden finally admits to fighting and seeing damian on the docks . margo takes holden into the station , as lily and luke show up ; lily insists that holden tell margo that he was n't involved . craig and jack have another bit of a showdown , as craig gloats about knowing about news of the baby . jack wants craig to back off , but craig tells him that he has his priorities now with the new baby and carly ca n't be one of them . janet and carly run into one another , as janet tells carly that she appreciates what she did for liberty , but she wants her now to stay away from her jack . carly does n't understand , so janet spells it out ; she is spending too much time with jack . she wo n't let her threaten her family right now when that is all she cares about to survive . carly snaps and explains that janet is talking to the wrong person about her marriage . she is ruining her marriage all on her own ; she should be having this conversation with her boyfriend , dusty , as janet looks stunned .

[ scene_break ] holden : luke should 've come with you . why did he stay at the concert and let you come home by yourself ? jade : he offered to , but i told him absolutely not . it was n't his fault i was n't into the band . why should n't he stay and enjoy himself ? i 'm a big girl , i do n't need a chaperone . holden : yeah , but technically , he 's still grounded . and the only reason i let him out was so that you could get out of the house and have a good jade : and he 's been great to me since day one . the only reason why he stayed was because i begged him to . so , if you 're going to be mad at anybody , you should be mad at me . lily : you know , i do n't think we should be mad at anyone . do you , holden ? i mean , luke is doing fine . he turned down kevin , which means he 's listening to us . i think luke is just on track . holden : i still think kevin showed up at that concert . jade : well , i do n't even think it would matter if he did . luke would n't even speak to him . he 's doing fine . [ door closing ] holden : hey -- what 's wrong ? lily : are you okay ? luke : i can explain . jade : do n't worry , i already told them everything . luke : you did ? lily : yeah , and i have to say i 'm a little disappointed . you should 've taken jade home . i know you were having a good time at the concert , but you never should have let her come home by herself . luke : oh , right . right . i 'm sorry about that . jade : i told them that you offered to , but you were having such a good time , i did n't have the heart to ruin it . luke : yeah , i mean , i did n't know -- well , i 'm sorry you did n't like the band . jade : it 's not your fault . it just was n't my scene . luke : yeah . well , it did start to get boring without you -- holden : did you hook up with any of your friends ? luke : no . holden : you sure about that ? luke : yeah , of course i 'm sure . why ? holden : you seem a little tense . luke : well , that 's because i 'm being grilled , and i do n't even know what i did . holden : come on , luke . let 's just get the cards on the table . jade said that kevin showed up here before the concert . anything you want to say about that ? [ scene_break ] jennifer : meg , look , i 'm not trying to deliberately hurt you . but it 's the truth , and i think that you need to hear it . because you hurt a hell of a lot of people . not just me . and you have nothing to show for it . meg : except a lot of remorse . jennifer : yeah . and you 're going to have to live with that for the rest of your life . but hopefully you 've learned a thing or two about yourself . meg : believe me , i learned plenty . more than my share . and for whatever its worth , i never felt good about what i was doing to you . jennifer : yeah . but you just could n't let dusty go . you knew that eventually , when we would find out that johnny was alive , that that would change everything . you would lose dusty . man , but i guess you just could n't let him go . meg : no , i could n't . you must really hate me . jennifer : no , no . i do n't waste my time with hate . i would only end up hurting myself . meg : so you pity me instead ? jennifer : i am sorry that you were so blinded by this obsession . because it made you do really cruel things . and i do n't think , deep down , that you 're a bad person . meg : maybe i am . i do n't know anymore . jennifer : well , at least you can admit that you did a pretty horrible thing . meg : and now i get to live with the fact that you and dusty are together , and better than ever . jennifer : yeah . and in an odd way , i guess i have you to thank for that . meg : he 'll never forgive me , will he ? you know , i always thought that we 'd be friends one day , but that 'll never happen . jennifer : probably not . i mean , even if i could forgive you , i doubt he ever will . meg : yeah , well , dusty 's old - fashioned in some ways . he 's from the eye - for - an- eye school . i know that he wo n't be happy until i 've suffered the way i made you suffer . jennifer : yeah , maybe . meg : i do n't suppose you could nip that in the bud for me , could you ? jennifer : i doubt it would do any good . 'cause you 're right -- you cross someone that he loves , and he makes a point of returning the favor .

margo : i want an answer . where did the pills come from ? casey : matt planted them . alison : you have no way to prove that ! margo : you know what ? you will get your turn . alison : sorry . margo : why would he do that ? casey : because i 'm onto him . he supplied those pills to elwood . and if we 're looking for who killed reg , matt 's as guilty as elwood . margo : we do n't have any proof . casey : not yet . but he 's dealing . i know it . alison : that 's ridiculous . margo : have you ever had any indication that matt is involved in drugs ? alison : no . nothing . casey : oh ! he 's not going to let onto her . he wants to get her in the sack . the sooner the better , right ? alison : what the hell do you know about what matt wants ? or what i want , for that matter ? casey : he planted those pills on me to get me out of the way , i know that . alison : you are not in his way . not as far as i 'm concerned . margo : okay , so then -- why is he jealous of you ? casey : ask him . alison : you 're the one who 's acting jealous . casey : because i warned you he was dealing ? because i thought you might want to protect yourself ? but no . no , you had to go and tell him what i said , and look what happens . he freaks out , and he turns on me ! margo : is that true , ali ? did you warn him that casey was suspicious of him ? alison : i was n't sure what casey might do . he 's been throwing these accusations around since matt and i started hanging out . casey : no , no -- since reg died from the drugs that came from matt ! margo : right , all right . all right . is there anything else that you can tell me ? alison : not really . margo : fine . then thank you for your help . alison : i can go ? good . casey : she is covering for matt . margo : casey , she seems pretty convinced that he 's clean . casey : who are you going to believe ? alison stewart or me ? brad : henry ! henry : hey ! katie : hey ! henry : welcome to the coleman golden casino . brad : is this legal ? henry : there 's no law against a friendly game of cards . brad : since when do you think a game of cards is friendly ? henry : i thought a friendly weekly poker game would be fun for all of us . katie : and keep you out of trouble ? henry : yeah , well it 's better i play with you guys than the sharks i normally hang with . katie : or would n't it be better if you did n't play at all ? henry : are you casting aspersions on my capacity for self - discipline ? katie : no , your gambling addiction . henry : trust me , sweetheart , these stakes are nothing i could become addicted to . brad : where is vienna ? henry : well , i left my wallet in my jacket upstairs . so she went to get it while i set up . she should 've been back by now . brad : well , maybe she decided to stop and fix her make - up . katie : because what else could be on a woman 's mind other than looking good for her man ? henry : i think you just stepped in it , buddy . brad : well , what else is new ? henry : here she comes , my partner in business and in life and in love ! hello , baby . whoa , what ? ow ! vienna : how could you ? henry : what -- what did i do ? vienna : this ! this ! henry : oh , oh , that . alison : i just saw casey . i was hoping that we could straighten a few things out . but i just walked right into a mess . matt : yeah , i 'll bet . alison : no , not just -- not just him and me . his mother found some pills in his backpack . matt : really ? alison : he said they were n't his . matt : well , that 's what everybody says when they 're busted . alison : yeah , i know . but i really do n't think he 's doing drugs . matt : maybe he 's dealing . i mean , mopping floors at the hospital ca n't exactly be a gold mine . alison : no , i do n't believe that , either . matt : well , it explains why he accused me of being the one dealing . anything to get the eyes off him , right ? alison : matt , he 's accusing you of more than that . he told his mother that you planted the pills on him . matt : what is his problem ? alison : i do n't think that she believed him . matt : i 'm doing my best to stay out of trouble , and he 's going to get the cops to come after me ? alison : i mean , she 's not going to go after you without proof . matt : there is no proof ! i 'm clean ! but he 's her son . and me ? you know , if i got 20 years , she would n't bat an eye . alison : she 's not going to just take casey 's word without proof . matt : i hope you 're right . alison : i 'm sorry . matt : for what ? alison : you guys were good friends before i got between you . and as usual , i just screwed things up . vienna : how could you do this without even telling me ? henry : i did n't -- i did n't actually do it . vienna : well , obviously , you were thinking about it ! henry : no , i did n't think about it ! vienna : then why do you have this brochure ? henry : because i was gathering information . so i could decide , if i wanted to think about it , which , if i did , i would tell you immediately ! vienna : you ca n't talk your way out of this , henry ! brad : it was a nice try , though . katie : it 's not funny , brad . vienna : no , it 's not . this is sneaky and dishonest . katie : maybe you guys should have this conversation somewhere else . vienna : yeah , we have . henry : yeah , and we ca n't agree . vienna : you were going to go and get yourself neutered ? brad : can we call it something else ? katie : this is their discussion , honey . brad : well look , you called it a discussion . but when one of them needs stitches ? what do we call it then ? vienna : how could you go behind my back about something this important ? henry : how could you ? vienna : because i want a baby ! henry : yeah , i do n't ! and i did n't do anything about it . you sabotaged my condoms ! brad : she poked holes in his condoms . did you know that ? henry : now -- now who 's being sneaky and dishonest ? brad : you know , vienna , he does have a point . katie : you know , honey , this is their discussion . let 's go . henry : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no ! stay , stay . okay , maybe i was wrong by not telling you about this earlier . but please , you have to admit that you were wrong , too . vienna : i admit it . henry : okay . then can we agree to talk about it next time , like katie and brad ? brad : yeah , well that 's the key to our happiness . right , honey ? henry : happiness . now does n't that sound great , huh ? yeah ? are we okay ? vienna : mm - hmm . henry : okay . vienna : yes , we 're okay . brad : can we play cards now ? 'cause i 'm feeling lucky tonight . henry : cards before sex . good thing we did n't go through with it , huh ? katie : go through with what ? henry : the vasectomies . katie : wait a minute . you were in on this , too ? casey : do you really think i 'm dealing drugs ? margo : are you ? casey : no ! how could -- how could ask me that ? margo : because , casey , clearly you are not telling me everything . if you want me to help you , please tell me everything . casey : i do n't want anyone else to get in trouble . margo : well then , the only one who is going to get in trouble is you . casey : okay , look -- luke found a note in elwood 's room . it looked suspicious . and it was signed with the initial `` m. `` margo : matt . casey : yes , which gave us the idea that matt 's the supplier . margo : oh , honey , based on an initial ? casey : yeah , we were trying to prove that he did it . i made the mistake of telling alison not to get too close . i did n't want her to get caught up in this . margo : and she mistook that for jealousy . casey : yes , obviously . margo : and are you ? casey : no ! it 's -- it 's totally over . margo : all right , so then that whole thing with jade , that was n't for revenge ? casey : jade has nothing to do with this . margo : uh - huh , okay . casey : the minute i warned her , alison went straight to matt . and then he realized that i knew he was dealing . and that 's why he planted those pills on me , to make me look like i did it . margo : all right , that 's all very plausible . but without any evidence , all we have are two competing accusations , casey . and these . casey : i swear to you , mom , they are not mine . margo : i want that to be true , casey . because if you are lying again , there is absolutely nothing i can do to keep you from going back to jail . captioning sponsored by procter & gamble productions , inc . and cbs casey : mom , i 'm not lying . just give me some time , and i can prove it . margo : how ? casey : just let me check up on some things . margo : what things ? casey : just give me an hour , and i ' explain everything to you . margo : why do n't you just tell me ? maybe i can help you . casey : no , i ca n't do that . i -- it involves people who do n't deserve to get caught up in this . please . margo : all right , you 've got an hour . casey : thanks . that 's all i need . tom : what 's going on ? margo : well , welcome home , dear . i found these pills in casey 's backpack . tom : he 's doing drugs ? margo : oh , he swears he 's not . tom : is he dealing ? margo : no , he says someone planted them . tom : what else would he say ? margo : and he 's going to prove it . he 's going to -- he 's going to prove it . tom : and where 's he going to get this proof ? margo : well , he did n't tell me that . tom : why does this stuff keep happening ? margo : i do n't know . tom : all right , all right , baby . what are you -- what are you going to do ? margo : i 'm -- going to wait . tom : and what would you do if it was n't our kid ? margo : i would go and get a search warrant . tom : then that 's what you need to do . brad : you think i want to get a vasectomy ? i do n't want to sing falsetto . henry : that does n't happen ! katie : what were you doing there ? brad : i was just along for the ride . katie : this is not disneyland , brad ! brad : i know that . i know that . i was just -- i was just giving henry some moral support . vienna : what 's moral about it ? brad : it 's responsible . you know , to make sure you do n't contribute to an unwanted pregnancy . vienna : well , i want to get pregnant ! henry : do me a favor , brad -- do n't help me out . brad : i 'm sorry . i just want katie to understand why i was there . katie : well , i 'm not sure that i do . you hate hospitals . you ca n't even talk about medical stuff . you would n't go anywhere near a scalpel unless you were seriously considering this procedure . brad : i want a baby . katie : you 're not just humoring me ? brad : of course not ! but you know what the doctor said . it 'd be very dangerous for you to be pregnant right now . so i just want to make sure that there are no accidents . that 's all . katie : i wish i could believe that . brad : it 's true ! henry : why do n't we just play cards ? brad : good idea . katie : i 'm sorry . i do n't feel like it anymore . brad : can someone please tell me what the hell just happened here ? margo : all right , so go through his room . and then the rest of the house , i 'll show you were his stuff is . cop : how hard core do you want me to get ? margo : you go through this house like you would any other . cop : this is your house , lieutenant . margo : all right , then you just leave it a little tidier than usual . tom : it 's okay . margo : no , it 's not okay , honey . it 's making me physically ill . tom : well , we 're not doing casey any favors if we gave him a pass on this . margo : honey , your son 's going to go back to jail . how is that helping him ? tom : he should 've thought about that before he got involved . margo : involved ? all he 's doing is trying to find out who killed his friend . tom : and he should 've left that up to you . margo : well , we 're not getting anywhere . we ca n't even prove manslaughter , let alone murder . tom : well , you 'll figure it out . margo : so what if casey already has , huh ? what if he 's right , and matt did plant those drugs just to throw us all off ? tom : do you believe that ? margo : i do n't know . knowing matt , it 's entirely possible . tom : yeah , but it does n't make it true . maybe matt really is trying to get his act back together . margo : so we give matt the benefit of the doubt , and not our own son ? tom : no , we try to find out what really happened . margo : i 'm trying . but it looks like our son 's going to go back to jail . tom : if it 's the right thing to do . margo : it does n't feel right . tom : i know it does n't honey , you 're his mom . but you 're also the chief of detectives . and you know how to do your job . margo : sometimes i hate doing my job . tom : i know . where you going ? margo : i 'm going to bring him in . tom : okay . i 'll go with you . i mean , at least we can try to find him together , huh ? matt : margo 's not going to believe a word i say if casey tells her that i 'm lying . alison : i 've had my differences with margo , too . and she certainly does n't like my family . but when it comes to her job , she 's always been fair . matt : yeah , even when it 's her own son that 's at stake ? alison : i still think she would do what 's right . matt : i hope so . alison : what if you do n't wait ? what if you go to them before they come after you ? matt : you mean the police ? alison : yeah , tell them you want to make a statement , show them that you have nothing to hide . that way , maybe , you can get out ahead of the wave . matt : yeah . before it drowns me . [ cellphone ringing ] casey : hey ! i was -- i was just calling you . jade : really ? casey : yeah , what -- what happened with matt ? jade : oh , i struck out . casey : he 's not dealing ? jade : he would n't sell to me . casey : damn it ! jade : yeah , well i probably would have gotten somewhere if your ex had n't come in and busted me . casey : wait , alison ? jade : yeah , she told matt i was scoping him out for you . casey : i knew it ! i knew it ! jade : you told her he was dirty , did n't you ? casey : i told her it would be a bad idea to hang around him . jade : yeah , well , she did n't get the message . and she could n't wait to blow the whistle on you . casey : i 'm so screwed . my mom found pills in my backpack . jade : yours ? casey : of course not ! matt must 've planted them . jade : well , he practically told me he was going to do this . casey : wait , wait -- what did he say ? jade : matt said if you try and set him up , it cuts both ways . casey : are you sure that 's exactly what he said ? jade : yeah , he was admitting it , was n't he ? margo : i 'm sorry , excuse me . could i talk to casey alone , please ? jade : sure . good luck . margo : so , find anything ? casey : not yet . margo : well , time 's up . casey : wait , you 're going to arrest me ? margo : no , i 'm going to take you in for questioning . casey : but i told you everything i know ! just give me some time to prove it ! margo : i 'm sorry , i can't . casey : and wait a minute . what are you doing here ? did you put her up to this ? tom : i 'm here because we 're still a family . casey : well , why does n't it feel that way ? ( coughing ) henry : i ca n't believe katie got so upset . vienna : i can . henry : he did n't get the vasectomy . vienna : just the fact that he even considered it without even telling her ? besides , they both want a baby . he 's just afraid of getting her pregnant , but she knows it 's going to be okay . henry : i 'm not following that logic . vienna : the point is , she never hid the fact that she wanted a baby . but he hid the fact that he was going to make it impossible . henry : he did n't do anything . vienna : why are you being so thick - headed ? henry : why are you being so stubborn ? vienna : war ! henry : you got that right , sister ! hey , where 's katie ? brad : she would n't talk to me . she just drove off . vienna : she 'll calm down . brad : i just wish i knew what i did that was so wrong . vienna : you never do . brad : i usually know what katie 's thinking , but this time -- vienna : it 's probably the hormones . hormones can make you very emotional . brad : what hormones ? vienna : you know , she 's a woman . she has hormones . henry : it 's never their fault , brad , it 's always the hormones . vienna : no , that 's not true ! it 's very sexist of you to say so ! sometimes it 's true , but it 's sexist . brad : okay , well , i 'm gon na take a cab home . i 'm sorry about the card game . sorry . henry : we are at war . vienna : yeah , you got that right . and you lose ! henry : it 's not over yet , sweetheart . matt : i think somebody 's going to make some false accusations against me , and i want to make a statement first . cop : maybe you want to wait ' til something actually -- happens ? matt : no . i want it on the record that i had nothing to hide . cop : okay , so who 's going to accuse you of what ? matt : casey hughes . cop : you ought to take this up with the lieutenant . casey : you bastard ! you set me up ! margo : casey ! brad : katie ? katie , come on , can we talk about this ? katie . oh , my god ! katie ! katie ! come on , honey . katie : brad -- brad : do n't move ! do n't move . what happened ? what , what , what , what ? katie : it hurts -- brad : hurts where ? [ katie screaming ] you 're bleeding ! katie ! oh , my god ! alison : are you okay ? tom : are you out of your mind ? or are you just trying to make this as bad as possible ? casey : he put those drugs in my backpack ! tom : well , getting arrested for assault is n't going to help you prove that ! casey : i do n't care ! how about you question him , huh ? margo : i will . matt : i came here to tell you the truth . margo : that 's what everyone better do . matt : right . so you going to tell her that you sent jade taylor to trap me ? casey : you 're full of it ! margo : so jade is involved in this ? casey : no , no , she 's not . matt : he sent her to try to buy drugs from me . margo : is that true ? casey : why are you even listening to him ? matt : if you do n't believe me , go ask jade . margo : call jade taylor , tell her to come down here . so you 're going to make jade lie for you ? casey : fine , yes , i sent her . matt : i told you ! margo : why ? casey : to get proof that he was dealing ! that he sold the drugs that killed reg ! matt : he 's lying . he 's trying to get himself off the hook . casey : i 'm not dealing drugs ! matt : then why are you holding ? margo : who told you that ? casey : yeah , who told you ? margo : ali ? did you ? alison : yeah , i did . margo : so what else do you know that you did n't tell me ? brad : help me ! please , help me . nurse : in here . brad : she passed out ! she 's bleeding ! nurse : what happened ? brad : look , i do n't know . i came home , i found her on the floor . she was bleeding . she lost consciousness before she could tell me what happened . nurse : the doctor will be in in a moment . could you please wait outside for a minute ? brad : no , i 'm gon na stay here . nurse : please , sir , you need to do this for her . brad : please , god . katie , do n't you leave me . casey : i know we have n't been getting along lately , but you know me . you know i 'm not into drugs . alison : i do n't know what you want from me . casey : i want you to tell them that they 're not mine , that they have to be his . alison : i do n't know whose they are , casey ! i do n't have any idea . casey : he 's only doing this to save his own butt . matt : that is backwards , and everybody knows it . this is about you trying to duck what you did , just like always . casey : you think i would give reg something that would kill him ? matt : yeah , i do , and i think you want me nailed for it 'cause you want me gone . casey : i do n't care what you do ! matt : you care that i 've been spending more time with ali than you have . margo : all right , come on , enough ! both of you , enough ! listen , if you know anything more about this , i want to hear it now . alison : i already told you what i know . just what they both told me . margo : have you ever seen either one of them using drugs ? alison : no . margo : selling drugs ? alison : no . margo : you know anything more about these pills that were found ? alison : i don't . i 'm sorry . casey : come on , he 's not going to admit anything to her ! matt : because it never happened . margo : you finished the search ? find anything ? cop : this . margo : what 's this ? cop : found it in your son 's room . margo : are you going to tell me this was a setup , too ? casey : no . it 's mine . vienna : brad ! is she okay ? brad : i do n't know -- they 're still -- they 're still examining her . henry : what happened ? brad : i came home , i found her -- i found her on the floor . vienna : oh , my god ! henry : have the doctors told you anything ? brad : not yet . henry : this is crazy . she was fine when you two left the lakeview . brad : outside , too . i mean , 20 minutes later , i come home , and she 's unconscious and bleeding . vienna : oh , my god . she 'll be okay . brad : that 's what i 'm praying for . doctor : your wife had an ectopic pregnancy . it ruptured her fallopian tube , and she lost a great deal of blood . brad : so what are you gon na do ? i mean , how do you fix it ? doctor : we 're going to take her to surgery . brad : i do n't understand -- how did this happen ? doctor : it 's not uncommon in women taking fertility drugs . brad : fertility drugs ? that 's not right . this is messed up . i got ta -- vienna : no , brad . it 's not messed up . just let the doctor do his job . brad : no , you do n't understand . she knew how dangerous it was for her to get pregnant . that 's why we stopped trying . she was n't taking fertility drugs . vienna : yes , she was . brad : what are you talking about ? vienna : katie did n't give up having a baby . she was still trying . brad : did she tell you that she was using fertility drugs ? vienna : no , no , she did n't say , but it makes sense . brad : no , it does n't make any sense . i mean , not after what bob hughes said . i mean , he said that her body could not support a pregnancy right now . vienna : she really wants a baby . brad : so she lied to me ? first about the diaphragm and now this . vienna : but she knew that you did n't want to try . brad : yes , of course , vienna , of course i did n't want to try ! because i was afraid something was going to happen to her ! and i was right . vienna : it 'll be okay . brad : what if it is n't ? what if it is n't ? i 'm sorry , i just -- i really can not be around anyone right now . henry : you did n't know ? vienna : that she was taking drugs ? no . henry : this is crazy . this is -- vienna : i know it seems that way . but a desire to have a child -- that 's a very powerful thing , henry . henry : yeah , and look what it 's done to her . margo : where did you get the cash ? casey : not from selling drugs . margo : that 's not an answer . casey : do you really think i would sell poison to people just to make a few extra bucks ? margo : where did the money come from ? tom : you 're not helping yourself , casey . casey : like there 's a chance i could . margo : answer my questions ! casey : it 's only going to make things worse . margo : i ca n't imagine that 's possible . casey : okay . i won it . margo : where ? casey : at the track . i know a guy who told me about a horse that was a sure thing . and it was . tom : and that is even worse ? casey : yeah , and that 's why i did n't spend any of the money . you know , it was the first time i slipped since i stopped gambling . and it made me want to puke . tom : so , did you go to your sponsor ? go to a meeting ? casey : no , no , i -- i was too embarrassed . tom : well , you should be . casey : i will . look , but it does n't prove i have nothing to do with those pills . why would i be dealing drugs if i have all that cash ? margo : if that 's where it came from . casey : it did ! margo : do you have the ticket ? casey : no , no , but i could give you the name of the horse and the race . you can look it up . margo : yeah , so could you if you had to come up with a cover story . casey : you 're not going to believe anything i say , are you ? margo : you just expect me to , casey . you have a ton of cash , you have a stash of pills , you have a couple of excuses that do n't add up . but yet you just expect me to believe you ? casey : yes ! yes , i do . henry : why did n't you tell me katie was lying to brad ? vienna : it was n't my place . she confided in me . she did n't want him to know that she was trying , and if i told you , you would 've told him . henry : yes , you 're damn right i would 've told him . maybe he could 've prevented her from putting her life in danger . vienna : i did n't know that she was getting fertility treatments . henry : is that where you got the idea to poke holes in condoms ? from her ? vienna : she told me that she had stopped using her diaphragm without telling brad . yes . henry : thank god you did n't end up in the hospital . vienna : i would n't because i do n't have her medical problems . i 'm built for childbearing . among other things . henry : it 's not funny . vienna : i 'm sorry . all i 'm saying is that i would n't put my health at risk by getting pregnant . henry : what about the health of our relationship , vienna ? have you thought about what all this deception is doing to that ? vienna : i love you , henry , and you know that . henry : i love you , too . but i need to know that i can trust you . vienna : and you can . henry : no , i can't . casey : you have a choice . you can believe me or not . what 's it going to be ? margo : no , i do n't have a choice , casey . i have to order a full investigation . casey : fine , fine . do what you have to do . can i go now ? margo : no . casey : but i told you everything i know . margo : i still have to question jade . casey : so , you 're going to arrest me ? margo : i hope not . casey : but i 'm basically dead meat . you know , i hope you 're happy . alison : of course i 'm not ! cop : we got his statement . matt : so , can i go now ? are you going to charge me with something ? margo : no , not at the moment , but i want to know how i can get a hold of you . matt : i 'm not going anywhere . margo : good . matt : you ready ? alison : sure . i have to get to the hospital anyway . matt : i 'll drop you off . alison : okay . jade : what did you tell them ? matt : nothing that is n't true . jade : so , now you want to talk to me ? margo : well , i did n't know that you were involved . jade : in what ? margo : i want to ask you some questions about your relationship with casey . jade : what about him ? margo : how close is the relationship ? jade : we 're friends . margo : good friends ? jade : look , if this is about the other night at your house , it only happened that once . margo : did casey ask you to try and buy illegal drugs from matt ? jade : yeah . margo : why ? jade : 'cause we wanted to find out if he was dealing or not . margo : and did matt sell any to you ? jade : no , but the guy is definitely dealing . margo : well , how do you know that ? jade : i just know . margo : well , your opinion is n't going to make a conviction . jade : yeah , i know , that 's why we wanted to find something concrete . margo : all right , relax . i want to ask you something else . and if you lie , i 'll know . jade : i 'm not lying . margo : has casey ever sold illegal drugs to you or anyone else you know ? jade : casey ? are you serious ? margo : i am dead serious . jade : casey 's messed up in a lot of ways , but he 's no dealer . margo : and you know because you know ? jade : matt knew i was trying to set him up . he told me to tell casey it goes both ways . margo : matt said that ? jade : yeah , and then , like , two minutes later those pills ended up in casey 's bag . margo : oh , great . but still , that 's not proof . jade : what more do you need ? you know casey . he 's your son . margo : yeah , he is . but i do n't know if i really know him at all . what is this `` minced `` ? you feed me minced ? brad : the doctor says you lost a lot of blood , but you 're going to be fine . you gave me the scare of my life . katie : i do n't know what happened . brad : you had an ectopic pregnancy . you know what that is ? katie : yes . brad : i almost lost you . do n't you ever do that to me again . katie : i just wanted us to have our baby . brad : you should 've told me you were getting fertility treatments . katie : i wanted it to be a surprise . brad , i thought -- i really , really thought that i was okay . that i was strong and healthy . and that anything was possible . brad : well , next time you want to surprise me , how about that birthday party you kept hinting about ? katie : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry that i did n't tell you . i wish i would have . brad : i wish you would have , too . katie : i knew that you did n't want to try anymore . brad : because i do n't want to risk your health . i mean , as much as i want a baby , i want you more . katie : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , this is the last time i 'll ever keep a secret from you . brad : you promise ? katie : i promise . do you forgive me ? brad : yeah , i forgive you . of course . you 're okay . nothing else matters . casey : ah , my mom arrest you , too ? jade : not yet . casey : well , what did you tell her ? jade : the truth . that you think matt 's dealing , and i tried to help you prove it . casey : did she believe you ? jade : she wants to . casey : yeah , but she needs proof first . jade : but you ca n't blame her for that . casey : yes , i can . she knows matt . and she knows me . jade : she knows you both went to jail . she has to ask herself if you 're trying to clean up your act , maybe he is too . casey : but look at the timing . he gets right back in town , the first think that happens is a good kid o.d . 's . jade : good kids o.d . all the time . casey : it is not a coincidence . jade : what about the fact that he 's seeing your ex ? casey : that has nothing to do with it ! i do n't even care what alison does . jade : we both know that 's bull . casey : did you tell that to my mom , too ? jade : it did n't come up . casey : well , what did ? jade : whether or not you were dealing . casey : well , what did you tell her ? jade : i said matt made a direct threat to set you up . casey : did she believe you ? jade : i think so . but you have big problems , and it 's my bad for hooking up with you because the last thing i need is trouble with the cops . casey : yes , i 'm sorry . i was a jerk . jade : more than a jerk . casey : look , i really need your help to get out of this . jade : seriously ? we had what i thought was a great night , and i wanted to see where it went . but then you blew me off and dragged me into this . good luck , because i 'm done . matt : hey . alison : hey , i thought i said i 'd meet you later . matt : yeah , i had a feeling you were upset . alison : no , i 'm fine . matt : really ? alison : no . casey and i were good friends once . and i do n't know how it turned into this . matt : well , he 's not an easy guy to get along with . alison : yeah , but it 's not just him . i mean , i sent him all kinds of mixed signals . matt : he wants what he wants . he always has . it 's a big part of his problem . alison : that 's not what you said when you first showed up . i mean , you were the one who was trying to get us back together . matt : i thought it was what you both wanted . alison : yeah , i could n't figure out what i wanted from one day to the next . i guess he could n't , either . matt : so you 're lucky . i mean , look where he is now . alison : yeah , i guess . matt : hey , you should n't let it get to you . alison : i know i shouldn't . but i do . matt : it 's okay . alison : i 'm sorry . i keep unloading on you . matt : i do n't mind . alison : yeah , but it 's not fair . matt : do n't worry about it . i like being your friend . alison : well , i like it , too . do n't let me screw it up . i 'm good at that . matt : hey , it 's not going to happen , okay ? margo : i ca n't stand this , having to come down so hard on our own son . tom : what other choice do you have ? margo : i do n't know . selling real estate . tom : might be bad timing for that career move . hey , i love that boy in there as much as you do , but he has to start taking responsibility for his own choices . margo : but are n't we ultimately responsible for the bad choices he makes ? cop : the tox report on those pills . margo : thank you . tom : i take it they 're not aspirins . margo : it 's hydrocodone . same manufacturer 's lot as the ones that were found in reg . tom : okay . margo : okay , so , now i really do n't have a choice . casey : so , what ? margo : the drugs found in your backpack match the ones that killed reg . casey : that proves matt 's involved ! margo : no , no , casey , it does n't prove that at all . casey : well , the pills are n't mine . jade told you he threatened to set me up ! margo : jade came to town because she was running from an armed robbery warrant . jade : but i thought you understood how that happened . margo : i do . i do . my point being that you got to have some facts to back this up , because you 're not a very credible witness . casey : so , wait , wait , wait . so what do we do now ? margo : i 'm sorry , baby . i have no choice but to place you under arrest . casey : no , you never do . margo : read him his rights , print him , then throw him in the cell . casey : no , you already got my prints . tom : it 's procedure , casey . do n't make it worse . casey : is n't that what i do best ? jade : i 'm going to find a way to help you . i promise . casey : i thought you were out . jade : i 'm not . casey : thanks . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns . `` brad : it 's very unlikely that you 'll be able to carry the baby the whole nine months . katie : no babies ? not ever ? paul : meg may have been with dusty , but she was ignoring him . she was only paying attention to me . barbara : oh , so you made her curious ? paul : i made meg jealous . craig : we win together , or we fail together , and i never fail .

[ scene_break ] rosanna : look , i 've done everything that you 've asked . if paul does n't sign the papers , it 's not my fault . you should 've given him more time . you should 've let him at least get used to the idea . then maybe he would 've signed the papers . but -- this way , he 's gon na be hurt , and he 's gon na be angry . and with good reason . you know , i 've dropped all of this on him with no warning . he 's still in love with me . james : and who could blame him ? i mean , look at you . you 're a beautiful , delicious , intelligent woman . a man would have to work very , very hard to resist you . and why resist ? that would n't be any fun . so i have an idea . as soon as paul signs those papers , let 's get married .

where do i get $ 100,000 ? lily : that 's embezzlement . craig : come on . are you buying a mink coats with the money ? a fleet of cars ? no , you 're just simply shifting funds within an organization -- an organization where your personal stake , your stock , is worth a hell of a lot more than the money you 're borrowing . which you 're gon na return with interest when you turn a profit . lily : thank you . craig : for what ? lily : believing in me . craig : of course i believe in you -- you 're the only friend i 've got . you 're so pretty when you smile . lily : oh , why do n't we smile so much anymore ? natalie smiles all the time . craig : that 's because she has a wonderful mother . lily : yeah , i 'm not so sure about that . i have n't seen faith smile in a really long time . craig : yeah , she 's a teenager -- almost . lily : no , it 's more than that . she 's been very , very distant with me . for instance , yesterday i wanted to have just a day alone -- mother , daughter time alone with faith . i got a call , business call , i had to take it . instead of insisting that faith just stay there and wait for me to get off the call , faith said she wanted to go with her friend -- at least that 's what she said she was going to do . i let her go , she ended up in the woods almost getting killed by a dog . paul saved her . craig : and that is your fault because ? lily : because , i do n't know , i 'm just not myself these days . craig : lily , you just had child number four and you were in a coma . you know , it would take a women twice as long to recover from something like that . look at you ! come on , how are you feeling ? you look fantastic ! lily : that 's very nice of you to say that . but , i have lost a couple of pounds when i was taking those diet pills i had a lot of energy , but since i 've stopped taking them i just seem to be a little less focused . craig : and so why 'd you stop taking them ? lily : they 're unhealthy . craig : i 'm sorry -- no , you know , i do n't think you should take them if you do n't to , but it 's going to be hard for you to make the case that they 're unhealthy . and if you 're suggesting what i think you 're suggesting , faith did not run off because you took a diet pill . lily : all i know is if i stay here any longer , i 'm gon na finish up this burger and order another one . and then curl up under a blanket and sleep for a week . so , let 's go .

[ beeper goes off ] susan : excuse me . i 'm needed on 12 . um -- i 'd like to finish this talk later . bob : hey , that was wonderful . kim : oh , well -- you know , it 's the right thing to do for all our sakes . i really do want the kids to be happy . bob : even though you still have doubts about their relationship ? kim : yeah , especially because i have doubts about it . honey , they 're gon na need all the support we can give them . all of us . which reminds me , have you talked to chris tonight ? bob : no , he 's not scheduled to work today . kim : you know , i tried to reach him on his cell phone -- he did n't answer . and neither did alison pick up on her cell . bob : well , they probably turned have them turned off so that they wo n't be disturbed by well - meaning parents . but do n't worry , wherever they are , i 'm sure they 're having the time of their life .

[ scene_break ] emily : i had to do something . henry : something as in pay him back emily , you tried that and he did n't stay departed . why did n't you leave him alone ? emily : i should have . henry : did you go after him again . emily : no . henry : good . emily : i sent emma after him . henry : are you nuts , emily ? do you know what you 've done ? emily : i know . he 's furious , so furious -- henry : he what ? could of killed someone ? you better hope he did not do something worse . like calling the cops . for all we know he could be spilling his guts to a murder and for all we know the s.w.a.t . team could be over here to arrest you now . emma : meg ? i saw the car over here with the motor running , i did n't know whether you were inside or not . you almost scared me half to death . i thought you would leave town and i 'd never see you again . what are you sitting out here like this ? what is it ? meg ? you want to tell me what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] meg : i was driving around and i could n't focus . i was afraid i would get into an accident so i headed here , because i had nowhere else to go emma : why did n't you come inside ? meg : i just could n't . emma : why on earth not ? meg : oh , mama – [ scene_break ] nick : carly has no part in what i 'm doing at the galaxy . katie : what was she doing there ? nick : why are you giving so much grief ? katie : i do n't understand why you 're at some place where carly 's slinging drinks . nick : it 's small town . katie : and that postage stamp she calls an outfit , it could n't be any smaller . nick : my point is if you need to work egg nights , there 's only so many places you can work in this town . the reason why she 's there is personal . katie : personal to who ? nick : why do n't you let this go ? katie : because you put me in the middle of it . nick : i put you in the middle of it ? katie : who had me run interference with her husband ? i think i 've earned more than an explanation . nick : okay . but you ca n't tell anybody about it . katie : just tell me what 's going on , i 'll tell you whether i need to tell anybody . nick : ever since jack got demoted he and carly have been struggling for cash and she 's been struggling for enough cash to make ends meet . she does n't want jack knowing she 's working at the club . katie : you 're kidding , right ? how did such a hotshot detective like you become so stupid ?

[ scene_break ] nick : you want to let me in on the joke ? katie : sorry , but the thought of carly being forced into slavery at some creepy strip club -- it 's too ridiculous . nick : you 're missing the point , katie . carly is a good mom . if anybody found out she was working at the galaxy , it could embarrass her . katie : you think all carly 's ever done is be a mom ? she 's a fashion designer , nick . she even had her own line so if she needed a job , do n't you think she 'd get one in the industry ? nick : maybe there are n't any openings right now . katie : you 're not getting it . she was huge . she showed her stuff all over the world . i 'm sure she could work something out nick : so , why 's she acting like this is the best job she could get ? katie : you 're the detective , figure it out . nick : you think she 's there because of me ? katie : i think carly 's smart . i think that nothing in her life happens by accident . i think if she ended up in your gin joint , it 's because she intended to be there . nick : katie , i told you , there 's nothing going on between her and me . katie : maybe not . maybe she ended up there by accident and you 're just taking advantage of your luck . or maybe there is something going on and you 're not telling me . but either way , it looks to me like you two are sliding down a slippery slope . if you were smart , you 'd put on the brakes now before anybody gets hurt . nick : you know what ? i 'm out of here . katie : nick , wait , nick . i 'm just trying – [ scene_break ] [ carly daydreaming ] carly : here jack . anatoly 's contact -- phone number , address , everything -- did it help ? jack : did it help ? carly , this number was i needed to bring down one everything of the biggest gambling rings this town has ever seen . i know everything now . how he launders the money . where it all goes down . exactly who 's involved -- carly , you 're wonderful -- the best . how is it you always know exactly what i need and how to help me ? carly : i learned from the best g - man . hal : hey , you two . i did n't think you 'd mind me dropping by without calling first . not when i want to give you this . jack : does this mean ? hal : you 're back on the force , jack . jack : but i only broke the case a few minutes ago . hal : good news travels fast . jack : what about nick ? hal : nick who ? you mean that guy i saw thumbing a ride along i-80 ? guess he could n't stand the shame . carly : he only blew the biggest case in oakdale police history . he deserves to get fired . hal : and jack deserves his job back . i want you down at the station right away . got it ? jack : i love you , carly . carly : i love you , too , g - man . [ scene_break ] parker : mom ? carly : hi , sweetheart . parker : what are you smiling about ? carly : because i have found a way to make everything all right again and guess what ? parker : what ? carly : you 're going to help me .

[ scene_break ] jen : yeah . paul had months to think about this . he knew the consequences of trying to contact me . he would n't just bail out now . hal : why not ? it would n't be the first . jen : he wanted more than anything to have my forgiveness . he wrote it in that note that he left . hal : he does n't deserve your forgiveness . jen : dad , you did n't hear him . you did n't hear his voice . it was in his voice , it was like this ache . i could feel how much he wanted to see me . when he promised he was going to wait , i had no doubt in my mind he would be here . hal : you 're assuming an awful lot , jennifer and i 'm having a hard time with believing you . jen : what would it take to convince you ? hal : a witness . jen : i have a witness . hal : who . jen : meg . hal : meg snyder . jen : she 's been with him and knows how he 's been and might even be able to tell us what happy tonight .

holden and molly think that damian faked his death because he wanted holden to be blamed for his murder and the best way to do that was to provoke a fight with holden at the docks and then kill someone so he could use the body and claim that holden had killed him . holden wants lily to take the kids and go to montega because damian is going to come back to oakdale for her . lily refuses to leave because she is determined to help holden prove his innocence even if he has to work with molly to do it .

[ scene_break ] jade : look , i realize that not everyone 's going to agree with me , but as far as i 'm concerned , love is love . and if you love kevin , great . luke : you do n't understand . i would give anything to not feel this way . jade : why ? luke : look what 's happened . i mean , my dad 's practically banished him from my life and i ca n't talk to kevin about it 'cause he does n't have a clue . jade : i thought you said kevin was your best friend . luke : he is . jade : so does n't he know you ? how you think ? how you 're feeling ? luke : no , not about this . jade : well , what are you afraid of ? luke : is n't it obvious ? jade : no . luke : okay . i tell kevin how i feel . jade : mm - hmm . luke : that i 'm in love with him . and he hates me , a , because he does n't feel the same way , and b , because now i 'm gay . jade : he 's not going to hate you . luke : you do n't know that . jade : yeah , i do . you would n't be friends with kevin in the first place if he was n't a nice guy . he 's not going to turn on you for something like this . luke : okay , okay , well maybe he wo n't turn on me . maybe he 'll say everything right , you know , just to spare me the embarrassment . but it would still be just so weird . he 'd feel uncomfortable . i 'd feel really uncomfortable . jade : or he 'd throw his arms around you . luke : oh , come on , jade . the chances of that happening are like zero to none . jade : how do you know he 's not having the same feelings you are and he 's just as scared . luke : yeah , he is scared . he 's scared of my father . i do n't blame him . my dad -- he ca n't even comprehend the possibility that his son might be gay . i mean , he just -- he wo n't even look at me . jade : your father loves you . luke : he used to . until he started wondering how i felt about kevin . and that 's the way it 's going to be with everybody . jade : no , it 's not . listen , i know that this is scary , but you ca n't pretend to be something you 're not . it 'll really mess you up . luke : or it 'll make it a lot easier for everybody else . jade : forget everybody else . you should be proud of how you feel . love is a gift . okay , and i know we 've all had crushes on people that did n't even know we exist , but this is different . i know that kevin cares about you . luke : okay , well , even if he did -- no , no , no , i ca n't even let myself think about that . jade : why ? [ jade chuckles ] luke : well , it 's not like i 'm going to get a chance to talk to him . you know , my dad keeps me on lockdown , 24/7 . i feel like i 'm a prisoner in my own house . jade : i think we can fix that . if you trust me . [ scene_break ] carly : what have you heard about me , butch ? because i 'd be happy to clear up any misunderstandings . butch : no , there 's no misunderstanding . the party in question happened to mention how you have a habit of shooting your mouth off about what goes on here . carly : oh , no , no , no , that 's not true . butch : that 's not true ? so my friend 's a liar ? carly : he 's mistaken . butch : no , i do n't think so . and since i told you when i hired you that what happens here stays here -- carly : and i heard you loud and clear , butch , and i have n't said anything to anybody . chardonnay : i woulda heard something , butch . and nobody said nothing to me . tiff 's as quiet as a mouse , i swear . butch : ohh ! and you 're with her round the clock now ? chardonnay : well , no . butch : then shut up ! carly : butch , char 's right . i have n't said anything and i wo n't say anything . i need this job . butch : well , that 's news to me . you 've yet to make any kind of an effort . you 're late . you make excuses . carly : no , no , no , i do n't . butch : what about the time you were supposed to dance and you disappeared ? i had guys on my back for days over that . carly : butch , that wo n't happen again . butch : oh , you 're right , it wo n't happen again . carly : butch , there 's got ta be something i can do to make it up to you . i 'll do anything . i 'll work extra shifts . i 'll come in early . i 'll clean the men 's room . butch : you want to make it up to me ? [ carly nervously ] carly : uh - huh . butch : why do n't you get your little butt in the back room and slide out of that uniform ? hmm ? and then get changed and go home . and do n't come back , 'cause i 'm telling you , the next time i 'm not gon na be so nice . carly : you got me fired ? nick : yeah , i did . payback 's rough . carly : you had no right . nick : i told you i wanted you out of here and you refused . carly : the only reason that you wanted me out of here is because you 're afraid that jack is going to show you up . nick : this is my collar . carly : jack is your partner . nick : you want to make it up to jack ? why do n't you try having a little faith in him instead of running around here dressed like this in a place like this ? carly : did n't seem to bother you much . nick : oh , is that the reason you 're here , carly ? because of me ? carly : what is that supposed to mean ? nick : you could 've thought of 100 different ways of backing your husband . but for some reason , you decided to spend your nights with me . [ scene_break ] jade : give me a chance , luke . let me help you . luke : no , you 've done too much already . like the other night when you covered for me about the concert . jade : it was no problem . just like it was no problem when i told your dad you were riding when you wanted to see kevin . luke : yeah , but jade , i ca n't keep asking you to lie for me . jade : well , you 'd do it for me , would n't you ? luke : yeah . jade : so it 's a good cause . luke : okay , well , even if i could grab some time with kevin , it 's just -- no , it 's so much of a risk . jade : yeah , it is , but it 's worth it to tell him how you feel . luke : do n't hold your breath . jade : luke , what if , i mean , he felt the same way you did ? would n't you be so devastated if he did n't tell you ? luke : you do n't understand . if he walked away -- you know , at least this way , we 're still friends . jade : that can never see each other . luke : i just do n't want to lose him . jade : wait , do n't you understand ? you already have . down by the bridge , what did he say to you ? luke : that we could never see each other anymore . jade : so ? how much worse could it get ? luke : a lot worse . because at least -- at least this way , he was as upset as i was . jade : and what does that tell you ? luke : that no matter what i do , i 'm always going to make someone upset . jade : it 'll be okay . mr. snyder , hi . holden : what was that all about ? jade : he 's a little ticked off . holden : obviously . but why ? jade : this is hard . i know that i told you i 'd keep you in the loop , but , i just do n't want luke to feel like he ca n't trust me . holden : jade , if my son is angry at me , i think i have a right to know why . jade : the thing is -- all right , he found out that you yelled at kevin and he 's not happy about it . holden : hmm . [ scene_break ] hal : we know that dusty came to see you at your motel room . that you argued . that he left and you did n't . his car is still in the parking lot . and we found his blood on your cane . paul : you 're wasting your time . i 've got nothing to say to you . jennifer : emily . look , i know that you love my brother and that he hurt you pretty badly , but i mean , you obviously still care about him . you came all the way down here to talk to him , did n't you ? emily : i just wanted to make sure that he was all right . jennifer : emily , did he hurt dusty ? i know that he resented him and we have all this evidence that they were together and that there was a fight . and now dusty is gone and no one can find him . emily , please . if you know something about what paul did , you have to tell me . okay , i know how paul is and i know how much in the past you 've wanted to protect him . but if we can find dusty before it 's too late , it will be better for everyone . and even if -- even if paul did something unforgivable -- emily : you know what ? i think you and your mother should talk to a lawyer before anybody makes a statement . jennifer : emily , you owe me . after everything that 's happened . i dropped the charges against you and i tried to be compassionate . ca n't you just please tell me what you know ? [ scene_break ] emma : look , i know -- i know you 're in trouble , honey . so if you wo n't talk to me , maybe your cousin will help . i mean , why do n't you talk to him ? meg : i ca n't do that . emma : why not ? ! i mean , he 's used to dealing with problems . for heaven 's sakes , he 's a police officer . meg : that 's exactly why i ca n't do that and why he ca n't know what happened here . just say it . emma : you have done something illegal ? meg : yes , i broke the law , momma , okay ? are you happy ? [ emma sighs ] of course you 're not , but -- but you are n't surprised . after all , it 's meg . we all knew she was headed for disaster . emma : now , meg , just stop it . just stop it . do n't do that to me . you know that i do n't think that way . meg : i know that . but i let you down again and i did n't plan to . i just got caught up in something and there 's no excuses . it 's just the way it is . emma : look , sweetheart , no matter what it is , we can make it right . we can make it right . look , i 'll get you a lawyer . meg : i do n't -- i do n't need a lawyer . emma : well , you just said that you broke the law . meg : only if someone finds out . look -- look , no one has to know that you saw me throw something over the bridge . as far as you know , it was a star and i was making a wish , that 's all . there 's nothing wrong with that . emma : once you lie , it just never , never stops . you 're gon na have to tell another lie to cover up that lie and before you know it , sweetheart , your whole life becomes a lie . meg : look , i 'm not asking you to lie . just do n't volunteer anything . we do n't have much time . emma : and what if jack asks me how you 're doing ? meg : tell him i lost my job -- my boyfriend . i 'm a mess . i 'm confused . i 'm unhappy . and that 's not a lie . but if you tell him that you saw me throw something over the bridge , then you might as well just sign my death warrant , 'cause my life is over . emma : oh , meg .

[ scene_break ] hal : good news . they 've moved your arraignment to the front of the line . paul : oh , great . let 's go . hal : you know , i gave up trying to understand you years ago , paul . but this -- do you understand what you 're facing ? the old charges of keeping jennifer 's baby from her , obstruction of justice , accessory after the fact and now these charges for jumping bail ? you 're going to prison . there 's no way around it , no matter what you 've done to dusty . paul : is there a point to all this , hal ? hal : have a little mercy on your sister . if you know where dusty is , tell me . paul : i ca n't do that . hal : well , then , i hope they lock you up and throw away the key . [ scene_break ] emily : paul did n't get a chance to say much of anything . i mean , your father busted in and threw me out . jennifer : but you know something . i can tell . emily : you 're right , jen . i do owe you . i know how much you care about dusty and how much you want this to be over , but -- you saw paul . he 's in really bad shape and he 's been in custody since last night . whatever happened to him with dusty -- ? jennifer : we know . we know they were together . the forensics proves it . emily : okay , well , maybe they were . but how did he make it back to the cemetery ? paul and dusty ? what happened to dusty ? where did he go ? jennifer : well , you 're assuming that dusty was able to leave once he saw paul . emily : it 's all assumptions , jen . that 's all we 've got . that 's the problem . but , see , paul is n't the only one in oakdale who had a problem with dusty . jennifer : what do you mean by that ? emily : well , see , i do n't think that paul 's the reason dusty 's disappeared . other than that , your guess is as good as mine . [ scene_break ] holden : did kevin contact luke ? jade : no . but kevin told one of his friends that you 'd sort of lost it with him . and his friend thought that he should call the cops . holden : the cops ? jade : i was n't there but i guess you were pretty scary . but kevin 's not going to call the cops . so do n't worry about that . but the friend called and complained to luke . and i guess he was pretty embarrassed . because luke had thought he had handled it . and then you did what you did and it sort of made it seem like you still think he 's a little kid . holden : that 's not what i meant . jade : i know . it 's hard . you were just doing what you thought was right . luke has been sick . he 's needed a lot of support . it 's hard to know where to draw the line . holden : but i overstepped it . jade : that 's the way luke sees it . holden : are you sure he 's not upset because he cut things off with kevin ? jade : no . i mean , there was n't really anything to cut off . they 're friends . or they were . you know , i think you were wrong about -- about the gay thing . i mean , they 're -- kevin was really there for him when you and lily were having problems and , i do n't know , the drinking was never really a big deal to luke . i just think he 's just as happy to be on his own . i really think you can relax . luke : what 's going on ? jade : oh , nothing . holden : jade and i , we were just talking about you . i know you wanted her to keep what you told her private -- and i 'm sorry about this , jade -- but i think luke has the right to know that i know the whole story . luke : dad . holden : luke , its okay . i understand . and i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] chardonnay : i 've got a kid to support . a little boy ? and we ca n't make it on the tips i make here , so i 've got a couple of friends who help me out . carly : what ? what does that mean ? chardonnay : you know , boyfriends ? i 've got a couple regulars i see once or twice a week . and its cash money and they can be real sweet . carly : oh , oh , i see . chardonnay : and it 's not bad . i do n't go with anyone i do n't like . and sometimes we get to talking . they give me stock tips and stuff . and one guy sold me real estate . carly : well , that 's -- char , i 'm really glad that 's working out for you . chardonnay : well , the thing is , there 's been some inquiries , if you know what i mean . a couple of the fellows asked if you were interested . i have n't had a chance ' til now to talk to you about it , but if you are interested -- carly : wow , right . that 's -- it 's tempting . and i 'm so grateful that you are looking out for me . but the truth is , there 's this man that i love . and he loves me too . i 've hurt him so many times . that 's actually why i 'm here . i 'm trying to make it up to him . you know , i just could n't cheat on him . it would break his heart . it would break my heart . chardonnay : that is the sweetest thing i ever heard . look at me , i 'm tearing up . carly : no .

butch fires carly , thanks to nick . chardonnay and carly discuss nick ; chardonnay tells carly that it is obvious nick has feelings for her . carly decides to use this to her benefit . luke finally decides to come clean with jade about his feelings for kevin . he also wonders if his dad would feel the same about him if he found out the truth ? jade assures him his family would love him all the same . jade even suggests to luke he share his feelings with kevin , but luke is adamant that he see no point to that because nothing good could come out of that . jade talks to holden about luke , which prompts him to apologize to luke about not trusting him . after emily tells paul about finding dusty 's bloody wallet , paul defends meg 's reason for having it . he also subtly convinces emily it would be in her best interest not to say anything to hal about her find . jen tries to guilt emily into telling her what paul did to dusty , but instead she points the finger elsewhere . emily tells henry she told paul about meg having dusty 's wallet , in hopes he does whatever he has to to get out of this situation of being accused of hurting dusty . translation – throw meg to the wolves . emma sees meg throw something in the river ; meg pleads with her to never tell anyone she saw her doing that . emma does n't want to lie , but meg asks her to simply not say anything . the request is tested when jack shows up and asks them what they are doing there ? paul confesses to jen that he killed dusty , as meg watches from afar .
susan : you 're getting their release papers ready . and like i said , luke and noah will be sore for a few days , but i think any long - term effects will be mainly psychological . holden : i still ca n't believe this happened . susan : lucky you got there when you did . thank god for that . lily : do you think it was just a coincidence that they were on their way to see colonel mayer ? holden : look , i 'm no fan of winston mayer , but i do n't think he could have known about noah 's truck breaking down . lily : he sent a message for noah to come visit him . holden : noah did n't even want to go . ameera was the one who wanted to see him . lily : exactly . what do we really know about this girl who just shows up out of nowhere ? holden : you think she had something to do with what happened ? lily : i do n't know . what if -- what if the whole thing was a set - up ? and what if colonel mayer sent ameera here to find a way to hurt luke and noah ?

i told you to change . emily : you see that guy over there ? behind you ? cheri : tall , dark and handsome ? emily : he knows me . he was the one i was with when we first met . cheri : i thought he looked familiar . emily : yeah , well , he sees me , he 's going to make scene . he 's going to stop this party , and you do n't want that . you 've got to figure out a way to get me out of here . please . katie : hey . jack : katie , hi . katie : i got your message . jack : yeah , good . i did n't want to leave you hanging . katie : where are the kids ? in the car ? jack : no . katie : oh , i thought you said we could n't get together because you had to watch the kids . jack : yeah , i know , that 's what i said . only -- i 'm sorry , katie . i used the kids as an excuse . the truth is , i just was n't up to it . i did n't want to go out . sorry . katie : it 's okay . i understand . you just did n't want to be with me . meg : is the coast clear ? holden : do n't worry . i 'll let you know before mama comes home . meg : so , what 's the tractor doing up front ? holden : would n't start . meg : again ? i thought it was fixed . holden : maybe your friend , craig , is n't the genius mechanic that he led you to believe he was . luke and i fixed it , though . meg : luke likes to take things apart , does n't he ? you know , i remember one birthday , he got this train set , and after two hours , there were little pieces all over the living room floor . holden : yeah , he was six . i remember he was tears , he expected his dad to be able to put it all back together . meg : and daddy could n't ? holden : no . and some things never change . meg : what happened ? holden : nothing . it 's just -- i do n't know . luke 's life is n't exactly carefree right now . and i ca n't help him fix it . i do n't even know what to say . meg : did you guys have a fight ? holden : no , no . it was nothing like that . we were just outside , we were working on the tractor , talking . i asked him about spring break . and he said that he was n't going with the rest of his class . meg : why not ? holden : because it 's all about hooking up . having someone special . and he does n't . meg : so , it will happen . holden : that 's what i tried to tell him . meg : so , what 's the problem ? holden : well , the problem is , it was a disaster . i could n't find the right words . i was starting to have this conversation with my son , i did n't know what to say . but there he was , taking it all in stride . meg : he was taking it all in stride because he knows it 's unfamiliar territory for you . and he forgives you for it . he loves you , holden . holden : is that why he went running off the second he had a decent excuse ? meg : what excuse ? holden : he got a call from jade . jade : i do n't know . i just want to know why gwen and maddie would n't leave me alone . luke : well , you do n't even know if it was them . jade : you have n't seen the way they 've been acting , luke . they 're panicking . and it 's not even like they were asking the right questions , like has adam called me again ? or do i know where he is ? it was all about how it was impossible that adam sent me this bouquet because i 'm not worth his $ 12.95 . i mean , i get these pathetic flowers , and maddie 's like , you sent them to yourself , and we know it . luke : yeah , but jade , come on , why do you care ? jade : it 's just that her and gwen are acting so strange . and gwen is acting worse than maddie -- it 's just weird . luke : so , it 's weird . but you know what ? you 've got lots of other bigger things to worry about . jade : like what ? luke : like finding someone who has better taste in flowers . will : i need to talk to you . luke : well , she 's with me now . but if you 're nice -- will : where 's gwen ? jade : i do n't know . she left with maddie a little while after i got these . luke : these are from adam ? will : what ? where is he ? maddie : how can they stay in business without keeping records ? gwen : it 's a little florist shop . maddie : yeah , but they 're hiding something . jade paid them not to tell us . gwen : no , come on . maddie : okay , she went through the trouble of sending flowers to herself , at crash , when she knew we would be there . gwen : she did n't know that we were going to be there . maddie : so then she followed us around town , making sure that she knew where we were so she could ambush us . gwen : i do n't know , maddie . that sounds like a lot of effort , even for jade . maddie : oh , come on , we are talking about the girl who pretended she was pregnant when she really was n't . gwen : that 's because she wanted to be with will . this , i do n't understand . why send herself flowers ? maddie : because she wants to get back at me because i did n't send her an email from adam . gwen : she does n't know that you send that email . maddie : yeah , but she knows that i made such a big deal about it . and i embarrassed her , you even said so yourself . gwen : so , that 's why she made up the story about adam calling her . if she made it up -- maddie : he did n't call her , gwen . he did n't leave her flowers , okay ? she must 've done this all herself . he 's dead , okay ? he 's dead , and we buried him . he 's not calling 1 - 800-daisies from the grave . gwen : i know . you 're right . okay . it 's just so bizarre . maddie : what is that ? gwen : it 's a package for me . oh , my god . maddie : what ? gwen : maddie , look where the return address should be . maddie : am . adam munson ? gwen : it 's adam . purcell users see the world differently . vienna : to you , my darling . henry : we already toasted to me . twice . vienna : well , three 's a charm . you 're unhappy . henry : me ? what are you , kidding -- no , i 'm delirious . my banker 's going to have a coronary over this , i think . and thanks to you , we get to have this really wonderful champagne . vienna : but you barely touched it . henry : right , so , bottoms up . vienna : no , no , no . look at me . henry , you ca n't fool me . i know you . you know , you 're unhappy because your so - called best friend katie made you feel bad . henry : no , i 'm not -- vienna : no , yes , she said terrible things about me and she told you not to sign the papers , but you did anyway , and she got angry and stormed off like a little child . henry : yeah . that about covers it . vienna : well , you must n't let her ruin this moment for us . no , she 'll get over it . when she realizes that i really , truly love you . henry : maybe . vienna : okay , i 'll go talk to her . henry : no , no , no , sit down . no , you ca n't do that . just let her calm down . vienna : okay . henry : are you okay ? did you have too much champagne ? vienna : oh , i 'm drunk -- henry : oh . vienna : on your touch . oh henry , i need you . i want you , right now . henry : okay , if you want me right now . fine . jack : katie , sit down . katie : i do n't want to sit down . jack : no , i want you to sit down , please . because i want -- i want to apologize . i do n't want to be standing in the middle of al 's -- katie : you do n't have jack , it 's my fault . i drive people away . jack : no , that 's not true at all . katie : really ? where 's mike ? gone . and now henry . jack : well , what about him ? katie : he shacked up with vienna . jack : henry ? katie : sad but true . jack : huh . henry and vienna . interesting . i ca n't wait until brad gets a load of that . katie : please do n't mention his name . jack : sorry . katie : no , i just need to face the facts . whoever knows me ends up hating me . but it 's my fault . because whenever somebody good and kind and decent comes into my life , like mike and henry , i do n't treat them nearly as well as they treat me . and so , you did the right thing . you should just stay away from me . jack : now , katie . listen to me for a second . the reason i left you that message , it had nothing to do with you . really . it 's me . listen , i 'm still raw . and sometimes -- sometimes i 'd just rather stay at home , keep life really simple , you know . katie : you do n't have to explain -- jack : yes , i do . because you 're my friend . and i want you to understand why i bolted . and why i 'm here . you and i , we 've been dealt a lot in the last couple of months . and i know -- i know that if anyone understands what you 're going through , it 's me . so how about we share this take - out , okay ? and we can talk about henry or whatever . katie : oh jack , i do n't know . i really should get home and wash my hair . jack : oh . katie : gotcha . there better be fries in here . jack : i got first dibs on the fries . katie : no , what kind of friend are you ? jack : the only friend you 've got . cheri : you know something ? you 're more trouble than you 're worth . just want to let you know , we 've got lots of pretty blondes , if that 's what you like . dusty : emily ! hey . girl # 2 : hey , handsome . you looking for me ? dusty : no , sorry . holden : okay , i 'm going to head home . and spend a little time with oakdale 's youngest tv star . meg : who 's that ? holden : ethan . he 's going to be in tv commercial . this baby food project that lily is working on . meg : oh , that 's exciting . lily must be having so much fun . holden : yeah , i wish . every time we get a moment together , it 's like she 's about ready to jump out of her own skin . meg : oh , this project is , you know , her first chance to make a big splash at worldwide . she must be stressed . holden : yeah , a little stress , i can understand . but she 's just driving herself so hard . and god forbid , i try to talk to her about it . meg : why ? holden : because she thinks that i 'm criticizing her . every time we talk , you know , we just do n't connect . same thing with faith . it 's like i ca n't communicate with anybody these days . meg : well , you 're doing a pretty good job with me . look , you are an amazing father and a wonderful husband . and i 'm not going to let you beat yourself up like this . your family 's so lucky to have you . every single one of your kids looks up to you . i 've seen it . even jade . holden : it 's funny that you would say that , because i really have n't seen jade that much . it seems like she 's avoiding everyone except luke . i wonder why . will : so what did the delivery guy say ? jade : nothing . will : well , he had to have said something . jade : no , he asked me my name , and he handed me the flowers . will : so , you did n't ask him who they were from or if he had seen the guy ? jade : it was a delivery guy . i did n't even know who they were from until after he left . will : jade , why did n't you go after him ? luke : will ? will , just take it easy . will : look , he attacked my wife ! luke : what ? will : yeah , adam attacked gwen . luke : what are you talking about ? jade : what are you saying ? that he physically went after her . did he hurt her ? will : yeah , he tried to . luke : no , no , that 's possible , is it ? jade : well , he could be a little bit rough . luke : wait a minute . i do n't understand . so , he sets you up , he attacks gwen -- and now he 's sending you guys emails and sending you flowers ? i mean , what 's his game ? jade : but he 's not sorry . he 's never sorry . where is he ? i mean , if he 's in town , why tease us ? luke : and why risk getting arrested ? because the cops are after him , right ? what does he want ? maddie : lots of people have those initials . gwen : it 's adam . maddie : gwen , he is dead . okay ? i 'm telling you , it is jade . she 's doing this to freak us out . first the phone call and then the flowers and now this -- what is it ? gwen : it 's my wedding ring . the one that i lost in adam 's grave . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns . `` emily : let go of my arm ! dusty : or what ? are you going to call cheri ? jack : she shoots , she scores ! katie : yes ! jack : beautiful . nicely done . gwen : hey , there is another explanation . adam 's still alive . and he sent me the ring .
katie ca n't believe henry and vienna 's news . luke and holden talk , rather awkwardly , about how he does n't think he is going to attend spring break because he does n't have anyone special . dusty tries to force emily to tell jack what happened when he notices her face , but she angrily puts him in his place . cheri interrupts when she calls demanding to see emily because of elliott . gwen is about to tell will what went on between her and adam when she sees how hurt he is . maddie intercedes on gwen 's behalf and explains adam attacked gwen , but she convinced her not to tell anyone since he did n't actually rape her and that adam is gone forever . will is distraught and this propels him onto a mission to find adam one way or another to make sure he pays . katie and henry disagree on henry 's role in vienna 's life and not to mention the role of taking on her money to keep her from having to turn it over to leonia ; henry wo n't budge and even signs the papers in front of katie . emily arrives at cheri and ends up being required to attend a group party . dusty follows her and goes inside . gwen and maddie are concerned about will running off half - cocked , but their fear is interrupted when they see jade receiving flowers from adam . maddie does n't believe he sent them and jade wonders if maddie sent them ? emily spies dusty at the party and hides . she gets cheri to cover for her , much to her dismay . dusty sees her leave and heads out after her , only to bump into someone else . katie finds jack at al 's , where he is forced to admit that he used his kids as an excuse . katie tries to hide being hurt , but tells him it is for the best since she turns everyone against her sooner or later . jack wants to stay with her and talk . meg offers holden a shoulder . will tells jade and luke about adam attacking gwen . they all wonder what adam is up to ? vienna is able to get henry 's mind off of katie . gwen receives a package from ‘am ' and proceeds to freak out . when she opens it , inside is her wedding band that she lost while burying adam .

[ scene_break ] announcer : on the next `` as the world turns `` -- mike : jen , what 's going on ? jennifer : nothing . i just have a deadline . mike : i 'm sorry , i 'm not buying it . and i am not leaving here until you tell me what happened . craig : if you really love your wife , i want you to get a plan together to get mike kasnoff out of street jeans and back into katie 's arms where he belongs . katie : what ? what 's wrong ? henry : it 's nothing . it 's just -- i 've got to get this truck off my chest . katie : henry -- whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , what 's happening ? henry , are you okay ? barbara : i only thought i should show it to you so you could be spared the pain that you would endure if you went down to santa domingo and tried to reason with her , because you know what that letter proves . she 's beyond reason . and maybe you should n't read it after all , but -- paul : you think she 's over me ? barbara : now let 's just forget all about this , okay ? paul : wait , read it . jack : the day she died , keith here was opening julia 's safe deposit box and pulled out documents that were only supposed to be opened in the event of her death , and i 'm wondering why .
jack tells j.j. about julia 's death . he promises the he will help j.j. through this rough time , just as keith shows up and claims he has `` legal `` guardianship over j.j. , and the two of them are never coming back to oakdale again . jack is suspicious of keith , and vows he wo n't let him take j.j. holden questions lily about julia , he asks if she had anything to do with her death . she breaks down into tears , while holden asks her to explain everything , luke walks in .
katie : sorry . jack : no , help yourself , please . [ jack chuckles ] katie : what ? jack : i just -- i 'll never understand women . katie : what do you mean ? jack : well , you guys order a salad , then you spend the rest of the meal stealing fries off the guy 's plate . katie : that 's because we like the taste of fries , but we know how bad they are for you , so we order a salad and then we get a little tempted . men just go straight for what they want . jack : what ? katie : why does henry want that woman ? jack : we 're back on vienna . katie : i mean , i know she 's stunningly gorgeous . i get that . but she 's also manipulative and she ca n't make up her mind when it comes to men , and she 's just going to end up hurting him . she 's using him . jack : wl , from what i know of henry , she 's met her match . katie : no . no , behind the martini - swilling and the poker - playing , henry is all heart . and she 's going to break that heart into a million pieces . jack : again , i 'm no henry expert . but if he can survive losing you , he can survive anything . katie : well , that was sweet . thank you . jack : do n't worry about it . he 'll get sick of vienna , or she 'll get sick of him . either way , the whole thing will fizzle out in a week or two -- hey , guys . how was practice ? j.j. : great ! parker : what 's she doing here ? emily : cheri , it 's emily . listen , i 'm sorry i ran out of there so fast . and thanks , for covering for me with that guy . i promise i 'll make it up to you . oh , and your dress , i 've got your dress and shoes . i 'm sorry , i ran out of there so fast , i did n't have a chance to change . and i think i left -- well , actually , i dropped my shoe on the way out . so , if you do n't mind , i 'm at the bar at the lakeview . if you happen to find it , maybe you could drop by with it ? dusty : did you lose something ? jade : luke had to go home and help his father with something , but he said you could call him later if you want . i still do n't know why adam sent these . it 's just so unlike him . will : to apologize ? jade : yeah , he 'd rather eat ground glass . and i just ca n't imagine him picking these out . he knows i hate pink . but i guess it 's the gesture that counts . will : jade , do you know where adam is ? jade : no . of course not -- will : because i can understand it if you were lying to gwen -- jade : i 'm not lying to anybody , will . in the past , it was different . i mean , why would i lie out this ? what 's in it for me ? i do n't want adam back . he wants gwen , and -- i did n't mean to make it sound that way -- will : no , no , yeah , i hear you . jade : besides , i 'm not the only one who 's heard from him . will : what do you mean ? jade : the e - mail . will : right . jade : yeah . so , did anybody try to e - mail him back ? will : no . no , i have n't e - mailed him . whether or not anybody else has -- jade : well , what about gwen ? will : no , gwen would n't e - mail him . why ? jade : no , i was just wondering , you know , if anybody tried to contact him and if he had answered . but why would he , right ? with the cops after him , it 's just such a risk . and his poor mom , this is like her worst nightmare . will : yeah , for all of us . jade : maybe that explains it . will : what ? jade : why gwen and maddie got out of here so fast . i mean , their reaction , it was just so strange . i mean , i know they do n't like me , but maddie was so intense about how adam could n't have sent these flowers . will : but is n't that what you just said , too ? jade : i said it was n't his style , or much of an apology . but i never said he did n't send the flowers . it was maddie and gwen who kept saying it was impossible , like there was something that they know that i don't . will : like what ? jade : i do n't know . do you think they 've heard from him again , and maybe they have n't told anyone yet ? what if they know where he is ? gwen : how did this get sent to me , maddie ? i lost it . you know when i lost it . maddie : i know , when we were burying adam . it 's not the same ring . it ca n't be . gwen : no , it 's the same ring . maddie : maybe it 's a copy or something . will knew that you missed the old ring , so maybe he went and surprised you and got a new one made . gwen : okay , and what about the initials on the box ? maddie : maybe it 's a jewelry store or something ! i mean , did you -- is there a note ? did you even check the box ? maybe -- gwen : no . no , whoever sent this to me knows where i lost it , maddie . maddie : well , i am the only one that knows where you lost it , and i did n't sent it , so maybe there has to be an explanation here . gwen : hey , there is another explanation . adam is still alive , and he sent me the ring . for fast heartburn relief , will : gwen has n't heard from adam , that i know . jade : what about maddie ? will : no , it does n't make any sense . i mean , she 'd be the first person to help casey out . so , if she heard from adam , she 'd go straight to the cops to clear casey 's name from the obstruction charge . she 'd be the first person to speak up . jade : okay , then why did gwen and maddie freak out over the flowers ? will : i do n't know . gwen still gets rattled any time someone mentions adam 's name . she does n't want to think about singing , she ca n't even talk about finishing the demo . jade : wow , she must be really upset . will : yeah , of course she 's upset . he attacked her . which is why we 're going to find him , so that he pays for what he 's done . jade : to all of us . will : where are you going ? jade : i told mrs . hughes that i 'd let her know if i heard anything from adam . barbara : i do n't know why you children insist on carrying cell phones when you never answer them . will : i 'm sorry , mom , i did n't have it turned on . barbara : and you expect me to believe that , huh ? and what are you doing here ? jade : always lovely to see you , ms . ryan . will : jade , call me and let me know what happens . jade : yeah , sure . will : so what 's so urgent that you 've been trying to reach me ? barbara : it 's about your father . we need to leave town tonight . maddie : adam is dead . gwen : no , maybe we thought he was , maybe we were just terrified -- maddie : we could n't get a pulse . gwen : it was freezing , maddie . i could n't even feel my own hands . maddie : stop it ! we buried him , and when we went back to look for your ring , he was still in the ground , cold . there has got to be another explanation . somebody else found the ring ! gwen : and knew it was mine and put dirt in the box just for fun ? whoever found that knows what happened . maddie : no , not necessarily . it could -- if jade found it -- gwen : if jade found it , then she 's been to adam 's grave ! maddie : or she was on one of those walks that she 's always taking . and she found your ring and she knew it was yours . gwen : okay , okay , what about the dirt ? maddie : it 's like she 's saying , `` how could you be so careless just to lose your ring and just leave it lying around in the dirt ? `` gwen : no ! i do n't know , maddie . you 're really reaching here . maddie : no , no . think about it , okay ? first she gets the voicemail from adam that mysteriously disappears when we try to listen to it . and then , she gets the flowers at crash , knowing that you will see them -- gwen : which brings us -- wait , maddie , how would she find the ring in the first place ? and you can forget the whole bit about her going for a walk . because we buried adam 's body off the trail and we went back , and we looked for this ring and it was nowhere near the surface . so , the only way that jade found this ring -- is if she dug up the ground . maddie : how would she know where to look ? and why would she even be looking in the first place ? she thinks that adam is out of town , that 's what the e - mail said . gwen : unless she saw us . and she was in the woods that night , we heard her . [ maddie remembering ] will : adam , are you afraid ? maddie : do n't drag him into this . will : you should be . jade : adam , he means it ! maddie : if jade would have found the body , she would 've went straight to the cops . gwen : so , if she did n't find him , then she did n't find the ring . which means that adam sent it , and he 's still alive . maddie : then there 's only one thing left for us to do . if you are positive that he is alive , then we have to make sure . we have to go back to the woods and check the grave . dallas : `` while i , for one , applauded your promotion to police chief , i have to say you 're a -- `` margo : what ? i 'm a what ? dallas : `` you 're a disgrace to the force . given the crimes your son has committed , you should have the decency to resign . `` she misspelled `` applauded . `` margo : great . the one complement i got out of her . dallas : you ca n't possibly be thinking of resigning . margo : well , they say for every letter you get , there are at least ten others that feel the same way . so , by my calculations , i 've got about 100-plus angry citizens who want my resignation . and that 's just today . dallas : what would hal say ? margo : he 'd say it comes with the territory . i 'm not hal . dallas : no , you 're not . and you 're new to the job , and you just got sandbagged by your kids . but -- margo : i 'm a liability . dallas : you 're good at what you do . [ margo scoffs ] so , why has n't the mayor asked for your resignation ? i 'll tell you why . because she 's giving you a chance to deal with this . hell , i heard her kid got slapped with a dui a couple years ago , so she knows what you 're going through . of course , if you want to quit -- margo : no ! i do n't want to quit , i love this job . i need the money . you know , jessica offered to waive the fee , but i ca n't let her do that . but , you know , with tom laid up , on the mend , it 's -- this is it . it 's me . i 've got to do it , or else we 're out of luck . we already tapped into our savings . dallas : well , you 're not going to lose the job . margo : i do n't know . it 's not going to go away , this story . adam 's out there . i need him to be here . i need him to face what he 's done . dallas : can i help you , jade ? jade : yeah . i need to speak to lt . hughes . katie : actually , i should get going . i have to go . jack : no , absolutely not . you did n't finish your salad . or my fries . besides , the guys are hungry . right , boys ? excuse me . waitress : oh , hi . yes , detective ? jack : yes , we 've got two more mouths to feed . have a seat , guys . what 'll it be ? j.j. : a cheeseburger , fries and a vanilla shake . parker : same . jack : and two side salads for both of them . j.j. : what ? wait , a salad ? jack : you got to have something green . thank you very much . so -- how 's school today ? j.j. : the math quiz from yesterday -- a 97 . jack : outstanding . way to go . what about you , parker ? i know you were worried about that book report . did you get it back ? parker : yeah . jack : and ? parker : it was good . [ cell phone rings ] jack : sorry . yeah , i got to take this . snyder . okay , he 's willing to testify against the dealer ? okay . well , then get dallas on it . [ jack sighs ] yeah , okay . i 'll be in . right . sorry , guys , we got to head over to the station , so we got to pack up . katie : what about their dinner ? jack : well , they can take it with them . j.j. : again ? i hate eating at the station . jack : i know , buddy , but it 's not like i can leave you alone here at al 's . j.j. : well , there 's , like , 1 million people . jack : 1 million people ? well , none of them have time to watch you and your brother . katie : i can watch them . i mean , i know they 're not kids . they do n't need someone to take care of them , but we could just hang out . and when they 're finished eating , i 'll drop them by the station . unless you 're not cool with that for whatever reason , you guys , which i totally understand . jack : well , what do you say , guys ? are you willing to take up katie on her more than generous offer ? it 'd certainly bail me out . of course , i would n't blame her if she changed her mind , seeing you two are so enthusiastic about the idea . not to mention grateful that she 's willing to volunteer to make our lives easier . j.j. : whatever you need , dad . jack : thank you , j.j . thank you very much . parker ? parker : fine . jack : well , katie , last chance to change your mind . you sure you want to hang out with these troublemakers ? katie : absolutely . we 'll have a great time . it 'll be fun . dusty : it does n't go with your dress , but you were n't wearing that the last time i saw you . go home and change . dusty : that is some dress . emily : what 's with your sudden obsession with my clothes ? dusty : well , your clothes say a lot . like your shoes . they 're too small . emily : no , they 're -- you know , actually , i think i got these on sale . dusty : they do n't even look like something you 'd go for , no matter what the cost . emily : you have no idea what i 'd got for , do you ? dusty : why are you being so hostile ? emily : i 'm being hostile ? oh , sorry . sorry . you know what ? let 's -- let 's start all over , okay ? hey , dusty . that 's a nice -- nice shirt . that looks great on you . going someplace special tonight ? dusty : no . i was at the avalon earlier . emily : really ? with chaz ? dusty : no . emily : hmm . i hear they have a new pool table there , in the lounge . did you know that ? dusty : i was n't in the lounge . i was at a party . emily : really ? good for you . did you have fun ? dusty : no , not really . emily : why not ? dusty : not really my crowd . a bunch of women trying to show me a good time for a price . paying for it 's never been my idea of a good time . emily : so you just left ? dusty : and found your shoe in the elevator . emily : what are you asking me , dusty ? dusty : what are you doing , emily ? want more moisture ? without all the weight ? dusty : i 'm not trying to pry . emily : no ? dusty : no . you and i have been around the block more than once . emily : and while i appreciate your help last night , i do n't think that 's -- dusty : it 's not about last night . and it 's not about all the decent things that you 've done for me . emily : well , that 's an interesting choice of words -- decent . you do n't owe me anything . dusty : it 's not about what i owe . or what you owe . it 's about what the market 's willing to pay for whatever it is you do . emily : let go of my arm . dusty : or what ? you 're going to call cheri ? how much does it cost to hold your hand ? there it is . there it is ! emily : dusty , let go of me ! dusty : look at that . look at your eyes . look at your eyes right now . emily : what do you want from me ? dusty : i know you . i know you feel reckless right now , 'cause you think there 's nothing to lose . but i 'm your friend . you understand ? you and i have become friends . emily : thank you -- for your support and your kindness , but you 're wrong about me . i have never been more in control of my life than right now . dusty : as you were last night ? emily : well , that wo n't happen again . dusty : i saw you . look at me . i followed you to the avalon . emily : was i there ? no . am i there now ? no . i 'm here . i 'm here trying to have a little time to myself . dusty : you look very under control . emily : what about work ? huh ? am i performing at work ? am i increasing your circulation dusty : yeah , you are . you 're doing a great job . emily : well , then this conversation is over . dusty : i 'm worried about you . emily : will you stop -- stop . you 're not my father , you 're not my brother , you 're not my boyfriend , you are certainly not my husband . we work together . okay ? that is it . so stop following me . stop trying to sit me down and tell me what i need and what 's right , because i 'm starting to resent the fact that you think you know ! you do n't know , so just stay the hell out of my life . please . dusty : all right . all right . hey , hey , hey . it 's okay ! i 'll go . katie : try it . it 's delicious . and they have really good raspberry vinaigrette . j.j. : i think i 'll pass . katie : oh , come on , just try it . it 's really good . i mean , of course , unless you do n't like raspberries . [ parker makes a fart noise ] yeah , that 's one kind of raspberry everybody likes , right ? so , parker , you were about to tell your dad about your book report . parker : are you my dad ? katie : no , i just -- i thought -- [ j.j. makes a fart noise ] you know what ? you do n't have to eat the salads . i 'll just take them home to my rabbit , snickers . he loves raspberries . [ both make a fart noise ] okay . um -- so , you guys are pretty entertaining . maybe i could get a spot for you on my show or something . j.j. : what show ? parker : it 's uncle brad 's show . katie : well , your uncle brad is in it , but it 's my show . j.j. : can i ask you something ? katie : mm - hmm . whatever you want . j.j. : where 'd you get the black eye ? katie : oh , i stopped a hockey puck with my face . j.j. : are you serious ? katie : yep , right there . j.j. : cool . margo : well , for me ? how thoughtful . jade : actually , they were sent to me . you asked me to let you know if i 'd heard from adam . margo : these are from adam ? jade : yeah , i got them about an hour ago . maddie : we have to go back to the grave and make sure that adam is still there . gwen : i 'm sorry , maddie . i ca n't go back there . maddie : do you think that i want to ? but it 's the only way that we 're going to know . gwen : so you agree with me ? it 's the only possibility . adam 's still alive , and he sent me the ring . maddie : okay , listen . we are in this together . okay ? and if you are so sure , then the only thing left for us to do is to go back there and figure this out , okay ? because if it 's not adam , it 's jade . and if it 's jade , then we ed to start protecting ourselves , all right ? so , we 're not going to be digging . it 's not going to be like last time . we 're just going to go , and look and see if the body is there . and then we 'll get out of there . we 'll be back -- and it 'll take , like , a minute . gwen : and if he 's not there ? maddie : well , we 'll cross that bridge when we get to it . i just -- we 're going to need boots . gwen : okay , i have an extra pair you can borrow . maddie : okay , good . and a -- and a shovel and a -- shovels , and those flashlights . i need -- i have one in my car , but it 's too small . i think we need the bigger one . gloves , too . okay , good . good , good , good . okay , listen , we 're just going to get in and get out . and we 'll be back here in , like , an hour . gwen : i 'm sorry . okay , i really -- i do n't mean to be so scared . maddie : it 's okay . i 'm scared , too . but listen -- promise me , gwen , if we -- whatever we find out there -- gwen : i wo n't tell anyone . i promise . let 's go . will : sorry . barbara : whoa , girls . what 's going on ? are you going out hiking ? i lost my job and my health insurance . katie : so , your dad had an extra ticket to the oakdale u game -- j.j. : and he was supposed to take me , and i could n't go . and parker did n't want to go , either . idiot . katie : well , anyway , he was kind enough to take me , and so , i got to go to my first hockey game . j.j. : you 've never been to a hockey game before ? katie : well , no , not ice hockey . but i loved it . it was so exciting . i was screaming and cheering . and then , all of a sudden , out of nowhere , this puck comes careening out of the rink and hits me right in the eye . j.j. : did you pass out ? parker : was there blood ? j.j. : did you have to have stitches ? katie : well , no -- well , i was a mess . but no stitches , no . parker : that 's too bad . j.j. : stitches are cool . parker : who hit you ? katie : ardenowski . [ both together ] ardenowski ? katie : yeah . j.j. : man , you should 've got him to sign it . katie : my eye ? j.j. : yeah , why not ? i would . katie : well , i could think of why not for a couple reasons . but -- anyway , does this happen a lot ? people getting hit by pucks ? parker : only if you 're lucky . katie : because i used to cheer for field hockey in high school -- j.j. : you know , field hockey 's a lot different from ice hockey . parker : it 's slow . j.j. : and boring . katie : and we never got hit by anything . j.j. : told you , boring . katie : well , you guys play , right ? j.j. : yeah . are you kidding ? i 'm leading the league in assists . parker : in your dreams . assists mean nothing . goals are what you want . j.j. : you know , i have goals . parker : yeah , like 10 ? i have 30 . katie : wow , well , since you guys are such experts , you should teach me a little bit more . so next time i go to a game , i can avoid the shiner . margo : so , i guess adam did n't deliver these to you . you would have said something . jade : no . a delivery guy dropped them off . margo : where ? jade : at crash . which was strange , because nobody knew i was there . i was just stopping by to meet luke . margo : and this is it ? no note , no message ? jade : just the card , and it 's not handwritten . margo : did you talk to the florist ? jade : no , i just thought i would bring everything here . margo : okay , great . yeah , you did the right thing . dallas -- i want you to call the florist and see if you can get a description of whoever bought these flowers . jade : so what happens next ? margo : that depends on what the florist has to say . so , you said that these were delivered to you at crash , that there 's a chance that adam could still be in the area . jade : you think he 's still in town ? margo : i hope so . i mean , i know it 's a mom talking here , but i do n't want to see my son ruin his life . i want him to come home . i want him to clean up his mess . would you tell him that if you talk to him ? jade : i do n't know where he is . margo : well , if he calls you . jade : sure . margo : listen , jade , i do n't think that adam treated you very well , and for that , i do apologize . he really does have a lot to offer . jade : yeah , well , i 'll let him know that you said that . and the second he calls me , i 'll let you know . if he does . margo : great . thank you . yes , jade , what is it ? jade : i just -- i do n't know if it 's really my place to say . margo : i might have just sounded like a mother there , but i am a police officer , and this is a police investigation . if you know anything pertinent to the case , it 's your responsibility to tell me . jade : it 's just that will told me , so maybe you should ask him . margo : well , i 'm talking to you now . well , you said the flowers were delivered , what ? an hour ago ? adam could be on his way out of town right now . so , if you know anything -- jade : just that something happened with gwen right before he left . something that nobody knows about . barbara : honey , how are you ? you look so pale . are you coming down with something ? will : what 's up with the boots and the shovels , guys ? maddie : gwen volunteered to help me with a bio project . and we should get going . barbara : it 's already dark . maddie : these are nocturnal plants . so , we should go . barbara : well , i was counting on gwen . gwen : for what ? barbara : to go with us to washington . will : dad 's getting a medal of valor from the police department in washington , d.c . barbara : you know that will 's father lost his life saving a teenager 's life during a robbery attempt down in washington , so the police department down there has decided to honor him . maddie : oh , that 's nice . will : yeah . so anyway , the ceremony 's first thing in the morning . barbara : yeah , we 're flying out tonight . gwen : tonight ? but i promised maddie -- barbara : well , i 'm sure maddie can find someone else to help her dig a few little plants . i mean , this is will 's father , after all . gwen : and he deserves every medal ever made . he was the best . maddie : i 'll never forget how nice he was to me when i needed help . barbara : so i 'm sure you can understand why his daughter - in - law needs to be with her husband , his son , at a time like this . gwen : it 's just that , with no notice -- barbara : you know , margo has been so distracted with casey 's gambling and adam going awol , god knows where . evidentially , the oakdale p.d . found out about this a week ago and did n't notify family until this afternoon . so , i 'm sure we can find something to throw into a suitcase in there . so , let 's get going , all right ? you know , with the world being what it is , you have to be ready to go to a funeral or an awards ceremony at the drop of a hat . gwen : no , i 'm sorry . i ca n't do this . barbara : what are you talking about ? gwen : i ca n't go . barbara : honey , of course you 're going with us . you 're family , gwen . gwen : i know , and i 'd love to go . hal was like a father to me . will : mom , can you just give us a moment ? barbara : of course , you take all the time in the world . convince her . well , maddie , you certainly seem to be applying yourself at school . maddie : i have to think about college . barbara : of course you do . a girl like you , so ambitious . maddie : that 's one way of looking at it . barbara : i wish your boyfriend was that ambitious . maddie : i beg your pardon ? barbara : well , if casey had applied himself at o.u . instead of gambling his tuition away , his mother would have called me about the ceremony for hal and i would n't have to be scrambling like this -- maddie : you know what , ms . ryan ? could you tell gwen that i 'm going to wait for her outside ? thanks . gwen : it 's not that i do n't want to go , it 's just -- will : it 's just for one night . you know , we 're going to be back tomorrow afternoon . gwen : i know , but i have a make - up exam tomorrow and i 'm already behind in all my classes -- i do n't mean to make school sound like it 's more important than your dad , it 's not . it 's just -- will : no , you 're stressed . gwen : yeah . and i mean , i knew this semester was going to be really tough , which is why i said no to spring break . and i need to show my teachers that i 'm taking school seriously . and if i start asking them to reschedule tests -- you know how it would look . it 's just a bad time . will : yeah , especially with everything that 's going on with adam . gwen : what do you mean ? will : well , i talked to jade . gwen : when ? will : i saw her at crash after you and maddie left . she told me about the flowers that he sent her . gwen : yeah , that was a big surprise . will : yeah , jade said how upset you got after you saw them . a few days ago , i would 've been really worried about it , but since you told me what he did , i guess it makes perfect sense , you know ? he tries to hurt you and then he sends jade flowers . it 's just twisted , so -- so i understand why you freaked out . gwen : yeah . will : so , look , i 'm just going to go down there with mom , and i 'm going to support her . it 's not going to take long . gwen : they were married a long time . will : yeah . i 'm only going to be gone one night , okay ?

gwen : be with you . i should go help maddie . i 'll call you . emily : oh , i found the shoe , sorry . cheri : oh , the shoe 's the least of it . why are you so buttoned up ? is there a reason for that ?

and well , i have this whole other life . i 'd just as soon keep it separate , okay ? cheri : what you do for me ? emily : what i do for him . cheri : what do you do for him ? emily : i write . cheri : yeah . emily : i do . cheri : and you 've never slept with him ?

dusty : you got a minute ? jack : sure . dusty : what can you tell me about the avalon hotel ? jack : the avalon hotel ? it 's newer than the lakeview , closer to the airport . does a lot of conventions , business types . dusty : did you ever hear a woman named cheri ?

you want me to call them ? dusty : i 'd appreciate that . jack : of course they 're going to want to know why you 're interested . dusty : i was over there because worldwide 's thinking about buying the real estate . anyway , there was a party going on upstairs with a bunch of suits from out of town , and a bunch of hot - looking women . jack : so far so good . dusty : expensive hot - looking women . jack : is there any other kind ? dusty : well , the one i spoke to broke it down for me in no uncertain terms . and i do n't think lucinda would be interested in that kind of real estate . so , if you could find out what 's going on , i 'd appreciate it . jack : yeah , okay , no problem . anything for lucinda . dusty : thanks , jack . jack : ou got it . yeah , get me vice , please . emily : this friend of mine -- he wo n't make any trouble . cheri : sweetheart , i 've been in this business a long time . when a guy tries to save you from yourself , whether you 've slept with him or not -- i 'm not sure which is worse . a crusader , a man on a mission , when he pries into what you 're doing , it 's always a problem . and i 'm not about to ruin everything i 've worked so hard for because you ca n't keep control of your friends . emily : you 're not going to lose anything , i promise you . cheri : what about eliot gerard ? i 've lost him . he 's not coming back . emily : so what ? good . the man was a monster . he beat me up . i mean , what if he really hurt me ? i could have ended up in the hospital . and then what ? you 'd have the police all over you . you 're better off without him . cheri : what about what happened tonight ? emily : what happened ? i showed up , i left , no one the wiser . it 's not my fault your girl did n't show up . take it up with her . cheri : i needed you to fill in . emily : i wo n't do parties . cheri : who do you think you are ? emily : have i made you money ? have i ? cheri : yeah . emily : and i will continue to make you money on my terms . which means a low profile and no parties . i will see my clients privately . i 'll show up on time , and when i leave , he 'll have a smile on his face . agreed ? cheri : you could make a lot of money in this business with an attitude like that . emily : that 's the plan . parker : she missed . j.j. : not possible . katie , you 're supposed to hit the flat end of the stick at the rock . katie : i know , i 'm just so afraid that i 'm going to hit the ground . j.j. : so what ?

dallas : he ca n't recall . apparently , there were several people in the shop at the time . margo : and there 's no security camera , and there 's no written record , and he 's not going to recognize him if he sees him again . dallas : and you want to quit this job ? jade : any luck with the flowers ? margo : not yet . let 's get back to gwen . i questioned her right after adam disappeared . and she made it very clear to me she has no interest in him . jade : well , she doesn't . margo : well , then i 'm confused . what are you trying to imply ? jade : you know , like i said , this is third - hand , so -- margo : all right , fine . well , i 'll talk to will . but adam could be still be in town , right ? we need -- what happened ? jade : apparently , he assaulted gwen . or he tried to . i 'm sorry , mrs . hughes , i did n't mean to upset you . margo : he sexually assaulted her ? jade : yeah . margo : and will told you this ? you believe him ? jade : gwen told will . and i know this is going to be hard to hear , but adam could be a little rough , especially if he wanted something . i mean , he never crossed any lines with me , it 's just that i -- i could see it happening . margo : all right . thank you for telling me this . jade : yeah , sure . so , what are you going to do ? margo : i am going to talk to gwen and check what you 've just told me . jade : she 'll just lie . margo : no , she won't . not this time . barbara : honey , are you coming ? will : almost done , mom . barbara : the limo 's outside . you know , i do n't understand gwen 's attitude at all . will : mom , she 's got a lot of work to do . barbara : well , i understand that . then why is she tromping around with maddie ? i -- i do n't get it . she loved your father . gwen : yeah , she did . a lot . barbara : then why has n't she packed up her books , like you 're doing , and she can study on the plane ? will : because she has an exam tomorrow . she ca n't do that on the plane . barbara : there is such a think as working too hard . and that girl looks exhausted . will : she is exhausted . and especially after everything 's that happened with casey getting arrested , and adam and her not finishing the demo -- barbara : and i thought now that she 's back in school -- will : well , yeah , she 's way behind , though , mom . and you know her , she 's a perfectionist . barbara : and that 's what i love about her . well , at least i 'll have you with me . sometimes our family feels very small . will : well , i 'm here , mom . barbara : i know you are . i know . we 're going to hold our heads high and make your dad proud . and if anyone asks about adam , then we will smile and say nothing . i ca n't believe he 's humiliating you and your father like this . will : i 'm just glad he 's gone . barbara : poor hal . he must be rolling over in his grave . gwen : are you sure this is the right spot ? maddie : i 'm positive . i remember we buried him right here in this clearing , by that rock over there . gwen : then where is he , maddie ? we 've been digging for 20 minutes . maddie : just keep digging . gwen : the last time we were here , we barely even starting digging and you touched his hand . maddie : yes , i know . but we covered him , remember ? we put all that dirt on top of him . he 's here . he has to be . gwen : maddie -- maddie : he 's here ! gwen : maddie , hey -- maddie : no ! gwen : no , he is n't , okay ? his body is gone , all right ?

[ grunting ] gwen : it 's no use , maddie . there 's nothing here . maddie : no , listen to me . it was dark . maybe we -- maybe we 're just off a few feet . gwen : no , we are n't off a few feet , maddie . it was right here . you know that it was here . maddie : wait a minute . look where the ground is uneven here ? maybe we miscalculated and the grave was here . come on ! gwen : maddie , come on ! stop ! come on , just because you want something to be true , does n't make it true . i do n't know why it 's happening , i do n't know how , but adam 's body is gone . maddie : no , it 's not . no , it 's impossible . gwen : maddie , it 's gone . maddie : i know . but if it 's not here -- e gwen : then somebody knows exactly what we 've done . maddie : no ! nobody knows . nobody saw , okay ? it 's -- we 're in the woods -- there 's animals everywhere -- there 's wolves , and there 's deer -- gwen : what -- that could drag off a grown man ? maddie : well , then maybe it was jade . gwen : jade ? the two of us , we could n't lift him together . maddie : but she had help ? gwen : no , maybe she did n't need help , maddie . maybe adam was just unconscious and he came to somehow , i don't . maddie : no , adam is not alive . gwen : how do you know ? maddie : because he was n't breathing . okay , he did n't have a pulse . and when we came back here to help you look for your ring , he was cold in the ground , okay ? if he was going to regain consciousness -- no . no , i killed him . i wish to hell that i had n't , but gwen , god , we know that he is dead . gwen : then what is going on ? maddie : i told you . it was jade . gwen : how would she even know where to find grave ? maddie : i do n't know . i do n't know , it is the only thing that makes sense in my head right now , okay ? she -- she has been jealous of you since day one . and she just wants revenge . gwen : oh , come on , maddie . why would n't she just go to margo and tell her the truth ? why go through all the trouble ? why send me the ring ? why make the phone calls ? maddie : because she is mean and she is spiteful and she wants us to suffer . does n't you see that ? gwen : damn it , maddie ! come on . how many holes do we have to dig before we give up and turn ourselves in ? it 's wrong . it 's been wrong from the beginning , and we just keep getting deeper and deeper -- maddie : well , then , fine , fine . we are going to go to jade and we are going to ask her what she knows for sure . gwen : let 's just go to margo and we can tell her the truth . maddie : what are we going to tell her ? that i murdered her son ? gwen : it 's the only way out of this mess . you know that . you know that it 's the right thing to do . maddie : oh , come on , gwen . wait a minute ! margo : so , we 're going to find adam . casey : you still believe that ? margo : yeah , it 's my job to believe that . casey : well , the clock 's ticking , mom . margo : yeah , i know . casey : you know , dad said they could move my court date up -- margo : i know , i know , i know . he called here too . casey : so what are we going to do ? margo : we find your brother before you have to face these obstruction charges . but still , it 's just -- something 's missing . casey : yeah . adam . margo : no , no , no , he did n't take off just because of the obstruction thing . casey : then why is n't he here ? margo : because he 's scared because something happened before he left . i mean , it 's something that does n't have anything to do with you . casey : how do you know that ? margo : adam 's your brother , casey , he 's always stuck up for you . why ? why would take off now when he knows you 're in such trouble ? casey : we 're not little kids anymore ? margo : no , because he 's in bigger trouble . jade came to see me . casey : and what did she want ? margo : well , she says that something bad happened between adam and gwen before he left . casey : like what ? margo : i do n't know . i do n't know . it 's been no secret to anybody . everyone has said that adam 's interest in gwen was beyond professional . casey : where are you going with this ? margo : gwen was the last person to see adam . casey : so ? margo : so , jade says that she 's not telling me everything that happened -- casey : well , jade 's a liar . margo : yeah , she can be . casey : and she hates gwen . and she 's made at adam because he broke up with her . margo : all right , all right , all right . still , i 'm going to check it out . casey : all right , well , i 'll go with you . margo : no , you 're not . i wo n't be gone long . casey : what are you going to do ?

lily : please ! [ baby cries ] miranda : it 's okay . it 's okay . lily : how dare you barge in there like that . i had this crew . i hired them for half a day . i flew the director in from new york . lucinda : no , dear . apparently , i did it . lily : i 'm not going to let you go back in there and embarrass me in front of those people again . i 'm in charge of this product . lucinda : even though i told you right from the beginning . day one , i said this is a non - starter . lily : sometimes , you 're wrong . lucinda : that does n't mean you 'll make an end run around me , dear . you talked to me openly about your determination to go on . lily : i tried that . it did n't work . i had to go another way . lucinda : and you used corporate funds . corporate funds , darling , without authorization . that is not the way we do it at worldwide . lily : no . no , worldwide is run like a guillotine . you sit there and you decide which product lives and dies , roll in the meantime . lucinda : and my stockholders have not found much to complain about . lily : when valley 's best boosts profits , they 'll have me to thank for it . and i 'm going to be honest with you , mother . i did not use worldwide funds for this ad . i financed the commercial myself . lucinda : oh , no . no , you didn't . you did n't use personal money . lily : yes , i did . lucinda : and now your face is on the camera . you 're out there -- lily : well , obviously . yes . lucinda : do n't you realize ?

lucinda : i 'm going in there to try to stop your wife from falling flat on her face . holden : you know what ? it 's her face . and it 's her job . and i think it 's time you respect that . man : cheri told me to look for a hot blond . please tell me that 's you . emily : well , i think i 'm the only blond in the room . maybe that 's because the hotel bar is n't very crowded right now . man : i realize you girls usually work nights . but , i had some time to kill between meetings . emily : really ? so , it was either a conditioning class in the fitness center or me ? man : something like that . emily : oh , do n't worry . i promise i will give you an excellent workout . susan : emily ? emily : mom ? what are you doing here ? why are n't you at work ? susan : i am at work . there 's an oncology seminar in one of the conference rooms . thought i 'd have a little coffee first . emily : oh , well why do n't we have coffee together ? why do n't we have breakfast together ? here , sit down and order me something . i 'll have another cup of coffee . so sorry about that . did cheri tell you -- why do n't you give me your key , and i 'll meet you up there in , like , five minutes . thank you . you 're a doll . i do n't keep you waiting . so , what are you doing here again ? susan : oncology seminar . emily : oh . susan : i 'm much more interested in what you 're doing here , emily . emily : i 'm having a cup of coffee , just like you . caffeine . before i go to worldwide . i mean , worldwide has -- they have a coffee bar there , but it is the worst coffee you have ever had in you entire life . and you 'd think that lucinda walsh of all people would have -- susan : who was that man that you hustled me away from at warp speed ? the one you were promising to give a good workout ? and what the hell did that mean ? maddie : gwen , stop . think about it . gwen : no , it 's all that i think about . maddie : if you go and tell margo , it 's going to be the worst mistake of our lives . gwen : we have already made the worst mistake of our lives . ñ maddie : okay . all right , go ahead . go , you put it out there . and then you can kiss college good - bye . and then you 're going to be singing about the prison walls -- gwen : hey , are you trying to be funny ? maddie : no , i 'm not . okay ? but , do n't you understand that i am trying to make myself feel a little bit normal and crack a joke . gwen : it 's not working . maddie : i know . okay . all right , fine . you go to the police , what are you going to say to them ? gwen : we tell them it was an accident . that you were trying to keep adam from hurting me . that you hit him , you did n't mean to kill him , maddie . it 's all true . maddie : right . and maybe they 'll believe that , but they 're not going to understand why we buried him and then lied about it for days . okay ? and i ca n't wait to see the headlines when they say , `` the sister of the raven league slasher has followed in her footsteps . `` gwen : you did n't kill him intentionally . you were just trying to protect me . maddie : yeah , and i still can . we need to start by figuring out why jade is snooping . we need to stop her . gwen : okay , but what if she 's the one who 's not behind all of this ? maddie : oh , come on , do n't start with that again . god , adam is gone . and ruining our lives is n't going to bring his back . gwen : maddie , if there 's even the smallest chance that adam is still alive , his family should know . maddie : will is his family . are you ready to tell him ? gwen : yes . it 's better than living with this secret between us . maddie : no , it 's not . no , it 's not . i killed his brother , and you helped me put him in the ground . will 's going to say that he understands . but , will he really ? it 'll tear you guys apart . secrets can be forgotten , but the truth can ruin your life . gwen : maddie , nobody is going to forget about this . margo and tom are never going to stop looking for their son . and one day the police will have proof . maddie : not if they do n't find a body . gwen , you tell margo , after all of this time , she 's going to crucify us . gwen : i hope you 're wrong . margo : wrong about what ? what are ya doin ' ? meg : hey . forget it , it 's on the house . paul : no , i 'll just wait for the cashier . meg : okay , i get it . we 'll take turns walking out when we see each other . paul : no , you stay here . and i 'll walk out . meg : you were always a gentleman . paul : until i wasn't . casey : hey , meg , i need three bacon - egg biscuits to go , extra bacon and -- meg : just a sec , casey . casey : problem is , i do n't really have a sec . i 'm kind of in a hurry . what 's the deal ? holden : if wrong , how much does it cost the company ? lucinda : it 's not the money . holden : ego ? lucinda : oh , ego . darling , it 's people . okay ? it 's the people . it 's all the people . the small investors , the pension fund investors who believe and who have faith in worldwide stock . it 's the moms and the pops . they 're hoping that their college funds for their kids will grow . it 's all the people who are expecting worldwide to make a better life for them . ego . that 's why i ca n't have a fiasco , okay ? holden : but you 've had setbacks before , right ? lucinda : i know , stuff happens . however if there is bleeding , you try to staunch it . holden : what if lily 's right about this project ? lucinda : then , she can go ahead with it . with a clear head . but she 's not clear . she 's shaky , she 's weird . now , you know that as well as i do . she 's angry , she desperate -- i do n't know . holden : she 's under a lot of pressure . lucinda : i understand that . but she has to find a different battleground to prove whatever it is she wants to prove about herself . holden : you want to know what she 's out to prove ? that she 's not a failure . lucinda : of course , she 's not a failure . holden : look , things are kind of rough at home . lucinda : oh . with faith ? holden : yes . lucinda : what does her therapist say ? holden : she has an eating disorder . it 's going to take some time . lucinda : i 'm so sorry . holden : lily and i -- we feel like we 've let the kids down . and the mistakes -- they 're just adding up . lucinda : oh , but darling , think of all of the good things , the wonderful things , that you 've done for your children . you 've taught them that love can get you through almost anything . faith is going to pull through . holden : i hope you 're right . can i ask you a favor ? lucinda : of course . holden : just put a little extra trust in your daughter . she really believes in this project . do n't take it away from her . think about that . i have to get faith to school . emily : i 'm sorry -- what are you implying ? because i do n't like what i think i 'm hearing . susan : oh , come on , emily . you came home the other night black and blue , all because you tried to hook up with some guy emily : you 're incredible . you really are . i 'm sitting there having a perfectly normal conversation with a guy -- for your information , that man is somebody that i was interviewing for `` the intruder . `` he 's a karate instructor . susan : a karate instructor ?

they broke up ? when ? susan : before christmas . oh , she told me not to tell you -- emily : wait , forget it . what happened ? susan : you think i know ? every time i tried to talk to her about it , she just shut down . and then , right after new year 's , she moved from seattle right down to l.a . emily : to do what ? susan : the last time i spoke to her , she was waitressing . she kept saying it was , you know , temporary while she looked for something else . emily : oh . oh , poor ali . susan : i know . she 's way too young to be galloping off to some city like l.a. , where she does n't know a single soul . emily : oh . some sister i 've been . her whole life has changed and i did n't even know about it . i got ta call her . susan : yeah , well , good luck . she 's not there very much . ooh ! oh . look at that . i 'm late for that seminar . emily : okay . all right , good luck . good luck with your seminar , mom . susan : okay . i know how hard you 're working , trying to get your life back together and i 'm proud of you . i really am . emily : thanks , mom . margo : i 'm -- i hope you do n't mind , i let myself in . the door was wide open . gwen : oh , yeah , will 's always on me about that . margo : and your car was in the drive , so i thought you were here , too . maddie : we took mine . margo : oh , all right . you saved me the -- leaving you a note here . maddie : sorry , it 's all my fault . we were really busy all morning . margo : yeah , yeah . are n't you girls a little old to be playing mud pies ?

miranda : the new show on woak ? phyllis : yeah , with that gorgeous guy ? miranda : is n't he supposed to your cousin or something ? lily : he 's holden 's cousin , but i could talk to kim and maybe you could go on and talk about the product . so which one of you wants to be the star , or do you want to go on together ?

maybe going to some supermarkets , and having some sales reps handing out literature and sample jars . if that 's okay with you ? lucinda : i like what i 've heard , so far . lily : really ? it might go to my head . miranda : we 'll send over the preliminary artwork for the print ads , then talk tomorrow about the rest of the promotions . lily : great . p.a . : good job , mrs . snydern we 're almost out of your way . lily : oh , thank you so much . tech : we 're about done breaking down the equipment . lily : oh , you do n't have to rush . it 's okay . phyllis : and we 'll get you all the material as soon as we can . lily : thank you . phyllis : bye , ms . walsh . lucinda : good luck . miranda : we do n't need luck , we 've got lily . lily : thank you , miranda . lucinda : ethan really likes this stuff ?

why you ? maddie : because i was there when it happened . margo : you were ? gwen : honestly , i think it 's better if i tell her . it 's just -- it 's just i -- oh , well , i do n't really know where to start . margo : yeah , i guess it ca n't be easy , telling a guy 's mother about something like this . gwen : no , it 's not . i am so sorry , margo . i just -- please understand , i never wanted it to get this out of hand . margo : no , no , no , you have nothing to be sorry about . gwen , please -- all i need is i need to hear it from you . did adam assault you sexually ? gwen : did he -- margo : everything you say to me will be held in strictest confidence . please . gwen : no , we 're not talking about rape here . margo : well , jade said that it got pretty rough . maddie : well , they were arguing . adam was pushing her around . gwen : it did n't go any further than that , though . margo : are you sure ? you 're absolutely sure ? because , honey , things like this , sometimes they just spiral out of control . you start to blame yourself and you bribe your friends to keep it a secret because you 're scared and because you 're confused . and in the end -- and maddie , you can attest to this -- you 're never going to get the help you need if you ca n't face the truth . gwen : margo , the truth is is that adam never forced himself on me . i mean , it stopped before anything like that could ever happen . margo : that 's great . that 's so good . thank you . i just did n't want to believe it , i really didn't . but everything that jade was saying , but there was a voice inside my head that said that adam , that he would never do that . he would never leave casey like that to take the blame . he had to be running from something , something more than obstruction of justice . so please , too , would you make me a promise please ? maddie : sure , anything . margo : gwen , if adam does contact you here , would you please tell him to come home ? he has n't done anything so bad that it ca n't be fixed . maddie : we will . margo : okay . all right , i 'm going to get back to the station now . maddie : i 'll walk you out . margo : all right . gwen , i 'm so glad that my suspicions were affirmed with adam . but what he did to you , that was n't right . i 'll be in touch . maddie : my god , i was so scared out of my mind . but i think we 're okay . gwen : how do you figure ? maddie : because margo is not going in the right direction . gwen : but jade knows a lot more than margo . things that she has n't told her . maddie , i ca n't do this anymore . i ca n't stand it , seeing the hell that she 's going through . i ca n't lie to her anymore . maddie : okay , then we need to find out what jade knows . gwen : what does it matter ? ! it does n't change what 's happened ! maddie : we can not talk now . okay ? it 's going to ruin so many people 's lives . you will lose will . and i will lose casey . so please , please just wait until we find out what jade knows . gwen : how ? maddie : do n't ask unless you really want to know . ahh , breakfast . holden : ca n't you take a break ? meg : we 're short - staffed . holden : just a second . meg : there you go . you 're the special . you 're the tuna melt . and iced tea coming right up . okay , look , you told me about mama . karen , can you see how backed up they are in the kitchen ? holden : listen , i know you 're very worried about everything that happened since mama 's been gone . but maybe she 'll take it all in stride . meg : yeah , and maybe i 'll win the lottery . holden : you know what ? you need to stay positive . meg : i know mama , holden . she has n't called me , she has n't written . usually , she 's storing it all up inside so she can let me have it when she sees me . holden : no , no , no , no . she does n't know what happened at the hospital . meg : mama knows everything . she 's usually right behind god in the `` knowing everything `` department . holden : yeah , well , not this time . nobody told her . meg : okay , so you did n't slip to iva ? holden : no . meg : how about where i 'm living ? or where i 'm working ? holden : i 'll fill her in if you want . meg : well , maybe we both should . that way , you can catch her when she keels over . holden : you know what ? she 's gon na accept it , eventually . meg : she 'll never get over the disappointment . she 's been disappointed in me ever since i was 16 . holden : meg , she loves you . we all love you . meg : well , some of you more than others . look , customers do n't like their food cold , okay ? i have to go . phyllis : oh , look at you guys . i thought you would both be ready for a nap by now . lily : oh , i do n't know about ethan , but i just got my second wind . miranda : well , you 're a real trouper today . lily : oh , thank you . miranda : and we picked up a little something for our littlest star . lily : oh , you did n't have to do that . phyllis : but we wanted to . miranda : i hope he likes it . lily : i wonder what it is , sweetheart . what do you think 's in the bag ? what 's in the bag ? holden : so you 'd tell me , would n't you , if you had any more of those visions ? we 're talking about my son 's safety here . paul : so you 're a believer now ? holden : i 'm not saying that . i 'm just not taking any chances . paul : you do n't think i 'm completely insane ? holden : not completely . paul : thanks . i have n't had any more visions about your son , but it probably could n't hurt to keep an eye on him . holden : i will . do me a favor ? stay away from meg ? paul : not a problem . holden : and stay away from the rest of my family . lily , she 's under a lot of stress right now . paul : hey , it 's not a problem -- holden : the last thing she needs is to worry about the baby , too . paul : well , if you got rid of that teddy bear , i do n't think you have anything to worry about . lily : oh , that is so adorable . ethan had a bear just like that , but we ca n't find it . we have no idea where it went . phyllis : well , there you go , little guy . we are very happy to replace your favorite bear . margo : oh , so your appetite 's back . casey : yeah , dallas insisted on buying . we got you one . extra bacon . margo : mm . dallas : so where 'd you go ? margo : i went to see gwen . dallas : and -- margo : jade was right . adam got physical with her . dallas : how physical ? margo : well , according to gwen , he was angry , they fought and he pushed her around a bit . dallas : anything else ? margo : no , no . she swears nothing else . but i do n't know , it feels like she 's still holding back . dallas : you do n't think she -- margo : no , no . i asked . casey : no -- think what ? margo : just never mind . casey : like that he raped her ? margo : no , he didn't . gwen swears that he didn't . casey : so adam 's not here because he and gwen had a fight ? margo : well , assault is still a pretty big charge . dallas : not if gwen does n't press charges . margo : well , maddie was there . maddie was there with gwen and adam , and she backs up gwen 's story . dallas : you know , that girl pops up at the strangest places . i ran into her at the morgue the other day . casey : maddie ? what for ? dallas : we found a john doe in the woods . i guess she thought it could have been one of her sister 's victims . margo : after all this time ? casey : she did n't say anything to me about that . dallas : well , she was pretty upset . i guess she still feels guilty about what eve did to those kids . margo : hmm , so why do people go to a morgue ? dallas : to identify a body . margo : uh - huh . so maddie went to the morgue . gwen : where did you learn how to jimmy a lock ? maddie : have you met henry ? okay , there it is . gwen : what if somebody comes in ? maddie : we 'll be fast . okay , she has it on lock down . gwen : okay , fine , let 's go . come on . maddie : no , i can hack in . gwen : great . maddie : i just need a password . so look around while i 'm trying to figure it out . gwen : okay , hurry up . what am i looking for ? maddie : i do n't know , like a diary , or someplace where she can write her thoughts about adam . come on . gwen : jade does n't really seem like the diary type . maddie , there 's nothing here . maddie : do you know her birthday ? gwen : no , i do n't know her . maddie : forget it . i 'm in . gwen : you guessed her password ? maddie : yep , was n't hard . it 's `` will . `` jade : natalie , pick whatever book you want . i 'll be right there . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns `` -- [ gwen screams ] will : gwen , can you hear me ?

damian presses faith with subtle threats into making sure she gets lily to a house outside of town . faith concocts a story about going back to school and asks her mom to take her to her friend 's house . faith says goodbye to her dad before she supposedly heads back to school still worried about if she is doing the right thing by keeping damian 's secret . molly goes to faith 's school and learns a horrifying truth – that damian was the one that picked faith up . holden is trying to delay being transferred to a different lockup , but the police officer is n't interested in listening . molly is able to get a moment with holden before they take him away ; she tells holden about what she found out at faith 's school . holden is devastated , and now puts the pieces together about the trap lily and faith are walking into . jack and carly are relishing in their newfound freedom to be together ; they are open and able to say i love you to one another , as they fall into bed with one another . they promise they will never let go of one another again . at this time , janet is at the hospital trying to process the information that she is pregnant . she wants to believe that it is jack 's and immediately wants to share her news with him . dusty is not jumping on the bandwagon and wants her to consider the baby might be his , but she wo n't hear of it because it is a gift for liberty . jack and carly 's blissful moment is interrupted when janet calls with her news , as jack and carly are overwrought . jack has to go to talk with janet , as carly struggles to be ok with this . jack , once downstairs however , races back to carly to reassure her again with words and kisses promising that he loves her and this will not change anything – even though carly is sure it will . lily sees faith 's reaction to a text by damian and pushes her to admit to her about what is really going on . faith breaks down and admits to lily what is going on with damian . lily is upset that faith did n't tell them what damian was doing . she calls the police , but the reception is bad ; she decides that she is going to talk with damian herself . faith is worried about her going in alone , but lily is sure the police are not far behind . holden pleads with the officer to listen to him about his family being in trouble , but he wo n't . holden overtakes the officer and runs off with the help of molly . jack interrupts dusty pleading with janet to entertain the possibility the baby could be his , but she wo n't . dusty does n't say anything to jack about his belief and leaves them to talk . janet assures jack that she is just thankful for his gift and this changes nothing between them because she knows he loves carly ; they are still going to get an annulment . dusty tells teri about his feeling , but teri is also unsure given the length of time since he was with janet , but dusty reminds her that janet was n't feeling well for weeks . dusty decides he needs to know who the father of the baby is . sage figures out that carly and jack are back together , as carly tries to downplay the reconciliation since it is complicated , but when jack comes back , sage can hardly contain herself . after she leaves , jack is worried about carly telling her the truth . carly is frustrated that he sounded like he wanted her to lie , jack quickly changes his tune explaining that is not what he wants ; he wants her and to be a family again ; he is just trying to digest all of this . they again reconfirm that they wo n't let this affect their future , but when they hug they both look concerned independently . dusty tries to get janet to believe he could be the father , but janet ca n't let herself because the odds of helping liberty are so much more with jack 's baby . she is upset that he is pressuring her . dusty wo n't back down because she has n't been feeling well for weeks . janet shoots back that liberty has been sick and she was just stressed . dusty continues to remind her that he loves her ; he needs to know , as he pulls her in closely . lily walks into the house calling out for damian . damian comes from behind her happy to see in his mind that ‘she has come back to him .

[ scene_break ] holden : i do n't know where we 're headed yet . molly : we ca n't just sit here . you 're a fugitive . holden : okay , then just drive . we need to figure out where damian is , and then we go after him . molly : no way . the last time you confronted damian , you ended up taking the rap for his murder . holden : that wo n't be a problem once we prove that he 's alive . molly : i think we need to call the police and tell them what we know . holden : they wo n't believe us . molly : but it 's the truth . holden : molly , if i call them , they 're gon na want to lock me up again . in their eyes , i 'm the dangerous one . molly : well , then call jack . holden : no . no , jack has already done enough trying to help this family . besides , by the time he gets involved , damian will be long gone . you 're the only one that i trust , and i ca n't do this alone . damian has lily and faith , and i do n't even want to think about what might happen to them if we do n't get there soon . [ scene_break ] craig : hey . sorry i 'm late . i had to stop off at the tailor . i tell you , this guy is a find . i showed him some of carly 's sketches . he actually made samples right from the drawings . she 's gon na be so excited to see these . ellis : until she finds out you raided parker 's trust fund . craig : it 's not raiding . it 's borrowing , with interest . that 's only fair . when you take out a loan , you have to pay interest . ellis : this is grand larceny . craig : only if we do it badly . that 's not gon na happen . monte carlo is gon na be a raging success , and carly will never know what we had to do to get it there . [ scene_break ] jack : thank you for being so understanding about janet and the baby . carly : well , they 're part of your life now . if i want you , they 're part of the deal . jack : carly , you wo n't have to share me . carly : yes , i will . one of the reasons i love you so much is how much you love your kids with your whole heart . i know what i 'm getting into . jack : i just wish it did n't have to be so complicated . carly : well , it does n't . i think sage was right . it can be much more simple this time . just get back to being a family . we can handle the rest together . jack : but janet 's baby -- carly : janet 's baby is also your baby , and he or she will be a part of this family . jack : what about liberty ? carly : liberty is your niece . she 's the kids ' cousin . she 's been a part of our family for a long time . that 's never gon na change . jack : thank you . carly : you know , the only question that i have is what you 're gon na do about janet . jack : we 're getting an annulment . carly : no , i know . i 'm talking about your heart . if you feel too guilty to let her go -- jack : no , i do n't , i do n't . janet does n't expect that of me . i 'm coming home to you and the kids . anything else would be dishonest . carly : you know , if we 'd listened to them a year ago -- [ jack laughs ] jack : everything would have been different . carly : but it 's okay , 'cause we 're back together now -- stronger than ever . now , do n't take this personally , okay , but i 'm expecting an e - mail . it 's about some fabric for my collection . i have to make a decision today , so -- jack : no , go . go ahead , go ahead . in the meantime , is there anything you 'd like me to take care of for you ? carly : yes . handle things with janet , okay ? dragging this out does n't make it easier for anybody . [ scene_break ] dusty : i 'll be a good father . i 'll give you and the baby everything you deserve . janet : no , no . this is not your baby . dusty : there 's every chance it could be . janet : okay . all right . you do n't believe me ? i 'll call the doctor , and i 'll schedule a sonogram , and then we 'll know for sure that it is jack 's baby . and until then , i do n't want to talk about this anymore . dusty : if it is our baby , we 'll find another way to save liberty , i promise . janet : i 'm gon na go get my things together . i got to -- i got to get some things for liberty . just show yourself out . [ cell phone rings ] dusty : hello . jack : dusty , where 's janet ? dusty : she stepped out . but while i have you , you should know that there 's some questions about janet 's baby . jack : what kind of questions ? dusty : i think i 'm the father . jack : did janet tell you you 're the father ? dusty : she 's not sure . she 's getting a sonogram to find out how far along she is . depending on the timing , we 'll know the truth . jack : i would like to talk to my wife , please . dusty : now she 's your wife again , huh ? jack : put her on the phone , dusty . dusty : i said she 's stepped out . i just thought you should know , jack . we 'll have a lot to talk about soon enough . [ scene_break ] carly : ah ! you are not gon na believe this . the fabric wholesaler actually met my price . i mean , that absolutely never happens . everything with monte carlo , this seems so easy this time . i do n't think we could possibly fail . are you all right ? jack : i just got off the phone with dusty . carly : and ? jack : he thinks the baby may be his . carly : oh , my god . i thought -- did n't they just sleep together that one time ? jack : well , apparently , that 's all it may have taken . carly : could janet have been pregnant this whole time ? jack : you tell me . carly : i do n't -- yeah , i -- it 's possible . she 's been very worried about liberty . she could have been sort of confused . but you 'd think once she started talking about having a baby with you , she would have realized . how did dusty sound ? jack : like he loves her . carly : does that bother you ? jack : i do n't -- i do n't know ! it 's just , what happens with liberty now ? carly : well , jack , there was no guarantee that a baby would have been a match anyway . and she 's getting the very best treatment possible . jack : yeah , because of dusty . carly : well , so -- who cares , as long as she gets well ? jack : you 're right , you 're right . all that matters is that she gets well . carly : you know , there is another way to look at this . janet and dusty are in love . and if this baby is theirs -- jack : you know , we do n't know that yet . carly : okay . if it is theirs , it would be a good thing . you would n't have to feel so guilty that janet is alone . she 'd have a baby with a man she loves . this could be the answer to our problems . jack : and what if dusty 's wrong ? carly : well , jack , then we 'll deal with that , too . it has taken me a very long time , but i 've learned my lesson . i 'm never gon na let you go again . [ scene_break ] craig : as long as you keep your mouth shut , ellis , carly never has to know that her anonymous investor is parker . and he never has to know about it , either . ellis : this kind of money just does n't vanish , craig . craig : it 's not vanishing . we 're converting it into goods , which we then convert into cash , which we then quickly and quietly return to parker 's trust fund . see ? everybody 's happy . ellis : not if i go to jail . craig : ellis , relax . look , the amount of money we 're talking about , this is a drop in the bucket . and besides , what good is money when it sits in a bank collecting dust when it can be out in the world , gathering sunlight and doing good . oh , shut up . ellis : what ? i did n't say anything . craig : you did n't have to . but to answer your question , oh , yeah , she 's worth it . [ scene_break ] janet : dusty ? well , what did you expect ? you told him to leave . parker , hi . are you with liberty ? [ janet sighs ] i am so glad that she has you there . can i talk to her ? oh , okay , no . no , no , no , no , no , no , no . do n't wake her up . she told me how hard it is to sleep with the doctors and nurses coming in and out all day . how is she feeling ? oh , poor thing . well , you know , she 's gon na have good days and bad days . and that 's why she 's there , right ? to get better . and so tomorrow -- tomorrow is gon na be a good day . could you please tell her i 'll call her later and i miss her ? okay . thanks , parker . [ scene_break ] holden : all right , that 's great . thank you for your help . i got an address . molly : how ? holden : it 's a security service that tracks kids ' texts and phone calls . molly : what did you find out ? holden : her last text was from this guy named max in forest hills . molly : right . what makes you think that she and lily are there ? holden : because lily said that she was taking her to a friend 's house in that area . look , it 's all we 've got . molly : all right . i 'll make you a deal . i 'll take you there . but when we get close , you call the police and tip them off . that way , if we find damian , backup will be right behind us . holden : okay , fine . but if damian has done anything to hurt lily or faith -- molly : then he deserves whatever he gets . [ engine turns over ] [ scene_break ] lily : i know that you only acted out of love for me , damian . damian : that 's right , lily . all that matters to me in this life are you and luciano . lily : and i 'm sorry that you were apart from us for so many years . damian : in exile , lily . lily : i wish that i could change that . but you found your way back to us . we had a second chance . damian : that 's all i dreamed for so long , lily . but then holden walked through the door and ripped it all away from me . lily : damian , it was n't his fault any more than it was yours . damian : he never appreciated what he had in you . not the way i do , lily ! what happened was n't right . lily : it was confusing for all of us . damian : i just could n't let him take you away from me , not after i worked so hard to get you back . lily : you acted out of love , but things went wrong and people got hurt . damian : look , i 'm sorry about meg . i never meant for any of that to happen . lily : then prove it . damian : how ? lily : make things right . turn yourself in . do n't let holden pay for your mistakes . damian : what mistakes are you talking about ? lily : you have a chance , but not at the expense of my children 's father . damian : a chance for us ? i want to believe you , lily , but you will have to prove it to me . [ scene_break ] carly : i know it 's a bit of a shock . but are n't you relieved that the baby could be dusty 's ? jack : no , of course i think it 's best for everybody involved if the baby 's his . but you should have heard him charging ahead before anybody knows anything for certain . carly : it was n't his place to tell you , that 's true . jack : no , it was n't . and i have n't talked to janet yet , so i do n't know the whole story . carly : well , go find out . but do n't make this a competition between you and dusty . unless your feelings for me have suddenly changed . jack : no . of course not . carly : then this is where you belong -- with me . remember that . jack : always . be right back . carly : did i forget we had a meeting ? what -- craig : no , no , but this could n't wait . carly : i doubt that . craig : trust me , you give me five minutes , you 're gon na be glad i came . [ scene_break ] dusty : you better be good at this , or i 'm not gon na get any sleep tonight . johnny : watch and learn , dad . dusty : yes , sir . yeah , i love being here with you . you can hang out with me anytime you want . just tell your other dad to call first , okay ? we 're only an elevator ride away from each other . that 's pretty cool . what 's the matter ? you do n't like living in a hotel ? johnny : it 's okay , but i wish i had a yard and a swing set . dusty : well , who does n't ? big tree fort . no chicks allowed . johnny : maybe you could buy a house and build me one . dusty : you know , johnny , you just gave me a great idea . [ scene_break ] craig : i have a surprise for you . carly : oh ! oh , my gosh . are these -- ? craig : carly tenney originals right off the sewing machine . carly : i love them . oh , whoever made these , they 're perfect . [ craig laughs ] craig : i agree . so do morris and his sons . they want to put these in high - end boutiques before summer hits . and i mean new york , palm beach , chicago and l.a. , and then we go from there . carly : oh . do you know what ? maybe we 're thinking too small . maybe we should go nationwide , right ? all the department stores , they all have online divisions . i say we go for it ! craig : oh , well , that 's -- that 's just a lot more money than we 've budgeted for . carly : yeah , well , go to morris . we 'll get more capital , right ? craig : no , i mean a lot more money . carly : well , big risk , big reward . is n't that your mantra ? craig : yeah , but we 're just getting started . let 's not bite off more than we can chew . carly : no , i want to . i think we should . i say go for it . [ craig sighs ] craig : well , i sure have n't seen you this excited in a long time . carly : you know , i have some sketches that i want to show you , but i left my book upstairs . just wait here , okay ? oh ! do n't sneak up on me like that . i was up so late last night sketching , i was too tired to make the bed . let 's go downstairs and look at these , okay ? craig : jack was here , was n't he ? carly : he left right before you got here . what difference does that make ? craig : did you sleep with him ? and i thought you were excited about the dresses . [ carly laughing ] carly : i was . i am . it was a wonderful thing for you to do . craig : so does this mean that jack 's left janet , that you two are back together ? carly : to tell you the truth , i do n't know . [ scene_break ] [ janet sighs ] jack : you okay ? what happened ? janet : it 's liberty . she 's having a really bad day , and i hate not being with her . jack : i know that . i know -- hey , listen , you 'll be there soon enough . and in the meantime , the doctors are doing everything they can to take care of her . and parker 's there , making sure she gets everything she needs . janet : but it 's not the same . i 'm her mother , jack . jack : i know . janet : i should be there with her . it should be me . jack : but you 've got to take care of yourself now , too . liberty 's doctors were very clear on that , especially now that you 're pregnant . janet : i know . but this does n't make it any easier . jack : did dusty tell you i called earlier ? janet : no . why ? jack : i wanted to go to your next doctor 's appointment with you , but he answered , said you stepped out . janet : i was upstairs . jack : janet , he told me he thinks he 's the baby 's father . is that true ? is dusty the father of your baby ? janet : no , he 's not . [ scene_break ] lily : i married you twice . i believed in you . damian : but no longer ? lily : when luke told me they found your body overseas , i was devastated . when you left town , i was -- i was angry with you . i wad disillusioned . i thought i might never see you again . but even then , i could n't imagine the world without you .

[ scene_break ] holden : how would you know whether or not paul ryan was lying to the police ? meg : you say that as if lying to the police were something new for paul . he has a history of lying to everybody . holden : fair enough . meg : and besides , you 've been following this in the papers . they did n't find a body . and they searched the area where paul claims that he buried him . nothing . no footprints , no blood , no shreds of clothing or hair . nothing to connect them ! holden : the police do n't always broadcast everything they find . meg : i 'm telling you , holden , there is nothing to connect paul to dusty except his bogus confession . holden : tell me this . why would paul confess to a murder he did n't commit ? meg : he probably assumes since he 's already going to jail -- holden : he would ruin his chances of parole . i do n't buy it . meg : okay , look , paul is a complicated man . he can lie and mislead people for reasons that do n't make sense to you and me but make perfect sense to him . holden : why are you defending a guy who , for whatever reason , hurts anyone who comes near him ? meg : that 's not true . holden : no ? ask jennifer . ask will . ask dusty ! i 'm not going to tell you what to do , but i love you and i 'm a little worried about you here . meg : i 'm fine . holden : no , you 're not fine . when you told me that you were leaving town , i got worried . you 're angry , you 're nervous , you 're in tears half the time . meg : you know , this is why i wanted to go . you force me to talk to you , and then you do n't like what you hear . holden : that 's because i see you tied up in knots over this guy who 's not worth it . he 's going down . and i do n't want you going down with him . [ scene_break ] emily : i told paul that meg had dusty 's wallet . i told him about the bloodstains . henry : okay . emily : and knowing that , he still confessed ? why did he do that ? henry : because he killed dusty ? emily : yeah , but he did n't kill du -- look , if meg killed dusty -- i thought you used to be a detective ? henry : private eye . in the job of making women angrier at their husbands than they already were . nobody ever said anything about murders or bloody wallets -- emily : what paul should have done was swear that he was innocent and then beg me to go to hal with this information , then hal would have arrested meg . henry : mm - hmm . obviously , he knew that . emily : what ? henry : he knew that if the police found out that meg had the wallet , then the suspicion would fall on her . emily : what are you saying ? henry : i 'm saying he opted for another way , em . emily : but why would he do that ? why would he confess to a crime that he did n't commit ? that makes no sense . henry : i do n't -- i -- maybe -- i -- the man was nursed back to health by her . [ scene_break ] jack : according to the bail obvious he is protecting her for some reason . [ scene_break ] henry : hey , i got a great idea . let 's get my money . we 'll go to the airport . fly to bermuda . emily : i hate bermuda . henry : how could you hate bermuda ? it 's a vacation ! just the two of us in separate rooms . i 'm not implying anything here . and i will pay for the whole thing . i 'll get you a nice rum punch . park your fanny out there by the pool . a couple of weeks , you 'll be right as rain . emily : that woman is not getting away with murder . henry : and if she 's innocent ? emily : well , then why did she have dusty donovan 's wallet in her hotel room ? and why did she go bananas when -- when she caught you in her room ? henry : i broke into her room , em . how do you expect her to react ? emily : you know what ? if they arrest meg , they 're going to arrest paul . henry : oh , we still got a lot of pending problems there . emily : yeah , but nothing quite as big as murder , right ? and if i can just convince paul to tell the police that it was meg -- how does this sound ? i got an idea . henry : yeah . emily : he shot himself . he tried to kill himself , but he failed . and meg found him , only she did n't go to the police . she 'd locked him in the cabin . and that 'll take care of the whole bail jumping charges . and then -- and then there 's just the baby thing left . and jennifer dropped the charges against me , right ? and if she did that for me , then she would do that for him . i mean , he is her brother . henry : then what ? then what ? you get married and live happily ever after ? emily it could happen . henry : oh , honey , honey , honey ! emily : he does not love meg , okay ? he does not love meg and he 's certainly not going to marry her , henry . so maybe he was infatuated with her . the whole nurse thing . [ henry laughs ] but now that he 's better he -- i know that deep down he still loves me . i know that . henry : okay , whatever keeps you warm at night . this has been fun . there 's a bar stool calling my name . emily : no , no , no , no , no . you 're not going anywhere . you stay put . i need you . henry : em , who 're you calling ? emily : yes , hi . i 'd like to speak to lieutenant hal munson . henry : emily , no . no . no . emily : yes , please . tell him it 's his ex - wife and she and henry coleman have something very important to tell him . [ scene_break ] jack : according to the bail agreement being negotiated for you , you agreed to stay away from the station house . nick : because nobody likes a dirty cop ? but you know all about that . jack : be advised , we 'll be watching , should you attempt to jump bail . nick : i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm going to find out who did this to me . i 'm not going down for this . jack : we 'll see . if you do get a jury to see it your way , you 'll never be a cop again . that 's all . katie : hey , i paid your bail . are you okay ? jack : hey , katie . yeah , i was just going over nick 's bail agreement . once the paperwork 's all done , he can be released . katie : well , that 's good news . jack : remember what i said . katie : what was that all about ? nick : he just thinks i 'm dirty cop . that i 'm going to jump bail . katie : still ? after you told him the story ? you did explain it to him , did n't you ? nick : not exactly . katie : but it was his wife who is behind this . she set you up , nick . i know it ! you have to tell him . nick : i do n't think i can do that . [ scene_break ] luke : did you see my mom earlier today ? jade : yeah , i saw her when she was on her way out . why ? luke : she was really worried about something . jade : about what ? luke : she would n't say . just that she 'd tell me when she got back from her trip . jade : she 's going on a trip ? luke : yeah , but she should be back in time for dinner . jade : is she going to chicago ? luke : no , she took my grandmother 's jet . jade : sounds urgent . luke : yeah , she got some news last night , or maybe this morning . anyway , it left her really stressed . she was talking to someone on the phone about how she had to find out the truth . jade : the truth about what ? luke : i do n't know , she would n't tell me . jade : did she tell your dad ? luke : i do n't think so . she said that she had to check on something before she told anybody . anyway , she promised to tell me when she got back tonight . [ scene_break ] lily : hi , thank you for seeing me , sister elizabeth . sister elizabeth : oh , not at all , my child . i 'm just sorry i was n't here when you first called . but you know , i go on retreat every year . you look so much like your sister . lily : so you were here when rose was pregnant ? sister elizabeth : she was a character , that one . always up to something . music wherever she went . laughter . lily : she was full of life . sister elizabeth : please , sit down . lily : oh , okay , thank you . sister elizabeth : there 's something you want to ask me ? lily : yes , as a matter of fact . sister elizabeth : well , you 've come all this way , then i hope you will ask . lily : i can see why rose was happy here . you 're very easy to talk to . sister elizabeth : rose was happy soul by nature . but she did have sad times here . it was n't easy for her to part with her daughter . lily : i ca n't imagine . i actually do have a few questions about her daughter . sister elizabeth : really ? and your niece has n't been able to answer them for you ? lily : well , my niece has n't been very forthcoming . i only learned recently that she was adopted around the time she was 5 years old . i thought , for sure , she would have been placed as an infant . sister elizabeth : that 's always preferable but not always the case . but today it is easier . in any event , we loved having her here . she was such a sunny child . lily : and you named her ? sister elizabeth : yes , we name all the children that are born here . sometimes when we place an infant at a very early age , the parents elect to change the name . lily : but in this case ? sister elizabeth : it stuck . lily : it stuck , okay . i do n't mean to be rude -- i mean , its beautiful name , do n't get me wrong . but it just seems kind of an odd name for a child that was born in a religious community . that 's kind of why i 'm here . sister elizabeth : i do n't know what you mean . your niece was named after the founder of our order . lily : the founder of your order was named jade ? sister elizabeth : jade ? good heavens , no . [ sister elizabeth laughs ] that was n't her name . rose 's daughter was named theresa . [ scene_break ] jade : so last night or this morning , this something happened and your mom suddenly needs answers ? about what ? luke : i told you . i do n't know . jade : do you think that this has anything to do with that priest that was here ? luke : she did n't say . but he 's been here before . like i told you , my mom does charity work at his church . faith : luke ? i did n't touch it , but your computer sort of fell . luke : faith ! come on . i told you , you ca n't touch my computer when i 'm not in the room . [ luke sighs ] jade : `` the orphanage of the little flower . `` oh , my god . she 'll find out . [ scene_break ] lily : theresa . i see . perhaps her parents changed her name ? sister elizabeth : no , i assure you , they did not . lily : maybe she changed her name herself . a lot of teenagers do that . sister elizabeth : in this case , no . i can vouch for that . theresa is still theresa . you see , she was here six months ago . she spent a few weeks with us . she was trying to find out some information about her birthmother . lily : i do n't understand . sister elizabeth : i 'm not sure i do , either . theresa was very fortunate . the couple who adopted her were just lovely people . but still , she had some questions about her birthmother and when she came of age , she returned to us -- well , to learn more about where she came from . unfortunately , when she got here , rose had already passed away and she was deeply disappointed . she was n't sure if she wanted to go on with her search . lily : so what changed her mind ? sr . elizabeth : theresa 's parents , you must understand , are very , very modest people . and well , when she learned of your family 's wealth and prominence , she was absolutely intimidated . add to that she 's of mixed race , which is a problem for some people , i 'm afraid , quite frankly , that she was afraid she 'd be rejected . lily : that 's just awful . sister elizabeth : it 's always a risk . after all , her mother had gave her away and now she was dead . it 's understandable that she might have some trepidation about how her family would react . lily : i was thrilled . it was like having a piece of my sister back with me . but this business about her name , it 's still very confusing to me . are you sure she was calling herself theresa when she came here ? sister elizabeth : yes . in the weeks that she spent with us , she gathered documents and pictures and anecdotes . everyone who knew rose had a story about her . and then she left us . lily : and went where ? sister elizabeth : it was my understanding that she went home and had decided to abandon her search . she was very grateful for all the information she had been given , but she was ready to shut the door on her past now that she knew that her birthmother was dead . and i have no reason to assume that she changed her mind . lily : so the girl that is in my house now , jade , is not rose 's daughter ? sister elizabeth : jade is most certainly not rose 's daughter . lily : but what about the documents ? we called here to verify the documents . sister elizabeth : yes , as i was told . but at the time , i assumed that she had decided to contact you after all . but now , given the information that i have -- lily : how did jade find out about the documents ? how did she find out about us ? sister elizabeth : jade was born here several months before rose arrived . we were able to place her as a very young infant . but i 'm afraid the match was not good . lily : how did you find out ? sister elizabeth : she returned here as a teenager , begging for our help . we naturally took her in . and that 's why she was here when theresa arrived , looking for information . jade befriended theresa . theresa was very trusting . but i am afraid that jade betrayed that trust . lily : so what are you saying ? sister elizabeth : jade is a very clever girl . she would have recognized the value of those documents . while she was here , she made a great show of needing our love and affection , all the while stealing from us every chance she got . lily : oh , no . sister elizabeth : i 'm afraid she 's a bit of a con artist , our jade . at the very least , a brilliant liar . if she 's told you that she 's rose 's child , it can only mean that she wants something . do n't let her hurt your family the way she 's hurt us . [ scene_break ] holden : paul is a lost cause . there 's nothing that you can do to help him . meg : and if he 's innocent ? holden : if he 's innocent , then the police will figure it out . meg , ever since you were a little girl , you have wanted to help the wounded bird . it 's in your nature . it 's who you are . it 's why you became a nurse . meg : yeah , and look how well that 's worked out . holden : and why is that ? because you got involved with paul . walk away . let him take his lumps . you need to put yourself first . that 's what you need to do . you do n't have a job . you need to find a job . you 're living in a hotel . when was the last time you saw my kids ? meg : i know , i know . holden : i want you back . i miss you . meg : i miss you , too . that 's why i 'm here . holden : i 'm sorry about dusty . but sad as it is , it 's just not your problem . [ scene_break ] hal : what were you doing in meg snyder 's hotel room ? henry : well , that 's just it . i did n't know it was meg 's hotel room . i just thought it was a hotel room at the lakeview , and i was checking out some views for a client that wanted me to do some surveillance from the window and then , the phone rang ! and i needed a piece of paper to write a message . hal : you answered somebody else 's phone ? henry : i thought it was for me . because i 'd told the clerk i was there to check out a view . hal : the clerk who gave you a pass key , which would never happen . emily : no , but the point is , henry found dusty donovan 's wallet . henry : right , next to the phone . actually , in a box next to the phone . which i only opened because i needed a pencil to take down the message . hal : you found dusty donovan 's wallet in meg snyder 's hotel room ? emily : yes , and there was something on it . there were blood stains all over the wallet . no , really , i saw it with my own eyes ! and there were credit cards and a driver 's license and then meg blew a fuse when she found out we 'd seen it . and all of this was after dusty went missing . hal : and it did n't occur to you to mention this to me when you saw me at the station ? emily : i 'm mentioning it to you now . and it proves what i 've been saying all along . that paul is innocent . meg killed dusty .

holden questions jade about kevin 's quick turn around from hanging with luke to now being interested in her ; jade assures him kevin and luke were simply best friends and not gay . lily heads to the orphanage to question sister elizabeth about jade . emily is shocked to find out from susan that paul confessed to killing dusty , even though she was definite he would implicate meg after she told him about her having the bloody wallet . nancy fronts the bail money for nick , as katie apologizes and promises her the deed to her house , but assures her that nick is innocent and has been set up . carly visits nick in jail ; nick thinks she was in on his set up , but she convinces him she would never get involved in drugs and sending him to jail . jack is not happy to catch carly there with nick , and he orders her to leave . meg and holden discuss her newfound bond with paul . holden hopes she cuts her losses when it comes to him , but meg continues to defend him . emily calls henry to tell him about paul 's confession , and he insinuates that paul is protecting meg by confessing to a crime he did n't commit . this angers emily and she calls hal and asks him to come over because she and henry have something to tell him ; later , she tells hal they found dusty 's bloody wallet in meg 's room . katie bails nick out and is aggravated when she finds out nick did n't tell jack about carly 's role in his supposed set up . jade worries when luke tells her that lily went on a day trip by plane in search of some truth . at the orphanage , a shocked lily finds out jade is not who she says she is . she learns rose 's daughters name was theresa and jade was another child similar in age who lived at the orphanage . the nun describes jade as breaking their trust because she was a bit of a con artist . carly goes looking for chardonnay , but butch claims he has never employed or heard of her . katie , tired of nick protecting carly , decides to take matters into her own hands when they get home , and picks up the phone to clue jack into carly 's extra curricular activities .

emily and allison talk about how she wants to try again with casey , as emily hides her dismay . casey tries to apologize to matt , but he is hearing it . he even tells casey that allison told him that she does n't want to be around him anymore and wants to be with him , as casey believes him especially when allison shows up to see matt . casey stomps out without a word . matt tries to guilt allison into spending time with him ; she can see how things go with casey when she gets back from their short trip , as allison finally jumps onboard . emily enlists jade 's services again to sleep with casey and make it so allison finds out , but what she does n't know is allison is listening outside the door . allison confronts emily , who tries to explain she is worried that she is going to get hurt by casey . allison is sure that it is purely selfish on her part – she does n't want casey , but no one else can have him either . allison goes charging over to casey 's house afterwards where jade has gone to and is trying to seduce casey again after he is upset about what matt told him . allison rips jade off of him and slaps her across the face . jade tries to deny allison 's accusations at first , but then cops to it . casey kicks her out and allison and casey finally agree to start over after they set a few people straight . casey sees emily and after they have it out , he asks for her blessing . allison confronts matt and asks him to understand why she needs to see this through , as she says goodbye to him . emily tells jade to back off because she thinks that after everyone stops trying to pull allison and casey apart , they will fall apart all on their own and then she can have casey all to herself . parker enlists the help of a lawyer in respect to some clauses in his trust fund . parker wants his mom to be removed as trustee so they ca n't use that money to send him away . liberty is unsure of this route because it will really hurt his parents . parker is determined to do whatever he has to , to stay in town . the lawyer makes a request to a judge about an injunction to stop him from being sent away , as they await word . craig admits to carly that it was lucy that found parker and liberty , as carly does n't know if she can trust him again . when carly goes to thank lucy , she asks for her help getting her dad back on her good side . carly is n't sure at first , but then makes up with craig and offers to take him to lunch where lucy is waiting . she tries to mend their fences , but craig wo n't be swayed , as lucy leaves dismayed . carly threatens to no longer be partners with craig if he treats his family so badly . after hearing carly out , craig goes to see lucy and makes amends . lucy is thrilled , as craig puts on one condition – that she can no longer be friends with dusty because he ca n't trust that they wo n't leave town with johnny . lucy thinks about this and then agrees , but asks that he not rule that his mind could change . craig agrees to that . allison and casey meet up to begin their do - over , as they share a kiss . craig comes to carly to tell her what happened , as he ca n't believe lucy chose him over dusty . carly ca n't believe he put on conditions and only hopes that lucy is telling the truth . lucy makes a mysterious call to someone telling them that they are back in business because she is back in her father 's good graces .
