[ scene_break ] simon : coming to my house is not going to get you anything . pilar : you hung up on me . simon : yeah , and another thing about that . do not call my house . what if katie answers ? pilar : that 's right . what if ? maybe you need to remember that there 's nothing to stop me from going in there and telling her that you hired me to come between -- simon : just shut up . cut to the chase . what do you want ? you said you figured out something to do . pilar : yes . mike is really angry with me right now . but if he did n't believe katie 's side of things , then we 'd be fine . so , he needs to find out that katie has had a revelation . she realizes now that she was wrong about me . simon : katie was n't wrong . you sent her to the looney bin . she 's never going to forget that . pilar : yeah , but if you talk to mike -- simon : what ? talk to mike ? and say what ? pilar : that katie 's too embarrassed to admit that she made a big mistake blaming him . simon : you want me to go to mike and tell him that katie 's had a change of heart . he 's not going to believe that . that 's going to have to come from katie , and she 's never going to say that . pilar : well , then what if you timed it so that you told him , and then you and katie moved away ? simon : you know what ? if you think that i 'm going to do that , you 're the one who should go to the nut house . pilar : come on . a conman like you ? it 's like taking candy from a baby . simon : read my lips , no . pilar : does this work ? simon : back off . pilar : mike is at the hospital right now . maybe you could arrange to bump into him there . simon : you are really pushing it , man . pilar : you 're the one that pushed things , simon . do n't you realize that ? when i got to town , katie and mike were n't together at all . she was being loyal to you , even though you walked out on her . all you had to do was come back , and she would have been right there waiting for you . but now , with all your lies and schemes , all the things you did to hold on to her , are exactly what 's going to make you lose her . funny how life works , is n't it ? simon : get out of here now . pilar : change mike 's mind by tonight , or your marriage is over . [ scene_break ] jordan : i 'm -- i 'm going to go get dressed and let you have your place to yourself . barbara : no , please , do n't leave . i want to talk to jen , but this concerns you , too . jordan : all right . barbara : well , it 's very clear that you two are still involved . jennifer : did you think that that would change ? jordan : i guess your mother thought that finding out who my father is might alter our relationship . jennifer : well , then she does n't know me as well as she thinks she does . mother , we are in love . nothing you say can -- barbara : listen to me . i know that i tend to want to get too involved in my daughter 's life . i understand that . but you have to understand that i know the pain that james can cause . but i will not interfere with you and jordan . i would like some reassurance , though . jordan : what can i do to put your mind at rest ? barbara : just reassure me that you 're not going to go anywhere near james . jordan : barbara , i have no illusions about what james is . you do n't have to worry . i will always protect jennifer .

[ scene_break ] simon : so , did you speak to margo ? katie : she was at the station . i did n't want to bother her there . simon : so what were you doing up there so long ? katie : thinking . simon : about ? katie : i 'll go . simon : what ? katie : i said i 'll go . do n't you know that i would go to the ends of the earth to make you happy ? simon : so what changed your mind ? katie : well , i guess i just started thinking about marriage . and when two people love each other as much as we do , they make sacrifices for each other . simon : you 've already given up so much for me . katie : and you 've given up a lot for me , too . simon : so , what about your family ? katie : i 'm gon na miss 'em . and henry , too . but they can come visit , right ? simon : yes , right . absolutely . katie : i just think it 's about time that i got to know the country that gave me the man i love . simon : we 're going to have the most phenomenal life . i promise . katie : as long as it 's forever this time . simon : it is going to be forever . you can bet on that . all right , then . i guess we better go start packing . katie : why ? simon : well , we got so much to do before we leave . katie : oh , i do n't think i made myself very clear . i 'm gon na go with you to australia , but not tonight . [ scene_break ] barbara : where 's jordan ? jennifer : he went back to his place to change . and then we 're going over to b.r.o . together . barbara : that 's nice . jennifer : is n't that what they teach southern girls at charm school ? when you want to scream and curse , you just smile instead and say , `` that 's nice . `` barbara : walker reminded me that jordan is still jordan . i liked him enough to hire him in the first place , and then i trusted him enough with my life . that 's not gon na change . and i know you want this . jennifer : i 've never been more sure about anyone in my life . barbara : and i have to tell you , there 's something very comforting to me about that , knowing that you 're happy . jennifer : jordan is one of the good guys , mom . and he could n't change that if he tried . barbara : that depends on whether he stays away from james . jennifer : you and walker were looking awfully comfortable . my radar tells me that something is different . barbara : he 's a wonderful friend . jennifer : how wonderful is wonderful ? barbara : okay . i guess last night i realized that he 's more than a friend . jennifer : i thought so . oh , mom , that 's great . really , you deserve it . barbara : well , thank you , but i -- i do n't know what this means , how long it 's going to last . but walker 's one of the good ones , too . maybe we 've both found what we 've been looking for .

[ riley sighs ] there was no work in town . my parents were dead . so i decided to do something big and try to restart my life . margo : did it work ? riley : well , until after adam died . [ riley sighs ] see , adam was trying to restart his life , too . and just when he was starting to figure things out , he got killed . margo : so then you made it your mission to do what adam could n't do . riley : i told you before , i did n't really know him that well . but he was trying to make amends , and he loved his family . i respected that , margo . and then when i met you guys , i felt really bad that adam never came home . margo : but still , riley , you 've got no place to go . riley : i ca n't go home with you . margo : why ?

i 'm not going to let you go , meg . i am never going to let you go . meg : i 'd like to go inside now . craig : meg , did i scare you ? meg : no . it 's just my vertigo . craig : i mean , you know i would never put you in a situation where you might get hurt . meg : yeah , i know that . craig : just as i trust that you would never do that to me . meg : all the same , i 'd rather stay inside , if that 's all right with you . craig : well , of course it is . whatever you want . besides , it gives me a -- it 'll give me a chance to give you my surprise . meg : you know , i 'm not sure i 'm up for any more surprises . craig : oh , meg . this one , i think you 're going to enjoy . lucinda : oh , here you are ! paul : lucinda , get out of my way . lucinda : wait , wait . if you are going to go searching for meg , would n't it be wise to have a lead ? now , i have been on the phone with my contacts at the airport -- bill : ms. walsh ? lucinda : oh , hello . are you bill martin ? bill : that 's right . lucinda : thank you . thank you for coming . this is paul ryan . bill here is an old friend of my former pilot . bill : i work in air traffic control at oakdale international . what can i do for you ? lucinda : well , we are very anxious to know about two people who left town earlier today in a plane . one of them was a young lady -- the bride -- who we fear was forced . paul : we need the flight plans for all the small jets that left oakdale airport in the last three hours . bill : sorry , i 'd like to help you , but i ca n't do that . paul : why not ? bill : you have any idea how many laws i 'd be breaking if i gave you that kind of information ? lucinda : oh , bill . you know i 'm good for it . just name it . how much will it take to make it legal ? maddie : i hated not being able to write to him . more than that , not being able to hear his voice . and you know , i was used to him -- and used to talking to him every day . noah : sounds like you really miss him . maddie : i do . and the worst part about it is , i do n't even know how he 's coping in there . it feels like he 's been in there forever . if he thinks about me half as much as i think about him -- oh , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i should n't be dumping my issues on you . noah : no . no , it 's okay . i just -- i ca n't believe you never brought it up before . i mean , seriously , the way you act , nobody would know . maddie : well , i really do n't have much choice . i mean , i know i feel bad , but i ca n't even imagine how casey 's feeling , so -- the last thing he needs is for me to fall apart . noah : casey 's really lucky . maddie : lucky ? noah : you know how many guys would love to have a girl like you on his side ? maddie : we should go before luke thinks we forgot about him . luke : after everything that happened with kevin , i promised myself that i would n't fall for a straight guy again . jade : i thought you did n't even like the new intern . what 's his name ? luke : noah . and at first , i didn't . i think , though , maybe i was just in denial . and i wish that i just stayed there . jade : well , the heart wants what it heart wants . luke : yeah , but jade , come on . getting a crush on noah is kind of like shopping for bread in a hardware store . jade : when did you realize that you felt this way ? luke : today . we were face to face , and then all of a sudden , my hand touched his hand and -- i do n't know , it just hit me like a ton of bricks . jade : are you sure he 's not -- luke : oh , no . yes , yes -- i 'm sure . if he likes anybody , it 's maddie . jade : oh . luke : i just -- i wish that there was this button , and i could just press it and all these feelings out go away . jade : you know , luke , i really , really hate when you say things like that . because the last time you tried to turn off your feelings , you ended up being drunk all the time . luke : yeah , well , jade , that 's not going to happen again . jade : well , what are you going to do ? luke : i do n't know . i just -- i need to find a productive way to handle -- to deal with -- jade , you are a genius . jade : what 'd i do ? luke : you helped me realize how i 'm going to sort this all out . katie : why , why , why ? why is the universe determined to keep me from being with you ? jack : the universe ? that covers a lot of ground . katie : too dramatic ? jack : no , no . it 's one of the things i find endearing about you , katie . katie : i love my work , i really do . i just really do n't want to go out of town right now ! jack : yeah , where do you got to go ? katie : i have to fly across the country and convince some celebrity to be a surprise guest on our show . jack : oh , why ca n't brad do it ? katie : are you serious ? this job is going to require delicacy and tact . jack : scratch brad , then . you going to tell me who the celeb is ? katie : no , then it would n't be a surprise . jack : all right , fine . katie : i really should do this , though . i think it 's going to take our show to the next level . jack : all right , then it 's a no - brainer . you have to do it . katie : it 's just bad timing . jack : will it help you if i tell you how much i 'll miss you ? katie : you 're not going to have time to miss me . you 're going to be shuttling the kids back forth to carly 's . jack : okay , stop right there . katie peretti , i do not want to be with any other woman other than you . got it ? katie : got it . jack : good . katie : you are so incredible to put up with my craziness . jack : oh , that 's funny . i was just about to say the same thing about you . katie : all right . i guess you 've got to go back and get parker 's stuff , so -- jack : yeah , i probably should go . well , come on . are n't you coming , too ? afterwards , we can go back to your place and i can help you pack . come on . carly : you do n't have to apologize , not to me . parker : but j.j. was right . carly : about what ? parker : he said that i did n't give you a chance -- and i didn't . i just stayed on your case all the time , not talking to you . carly : you were angry -- and you had a good reason to be . i did a terrible thing when i went away . and then i came back just when you 're getting used to me being gone . of course you were mad . parker : yeah , i just thought maybe if you knew what we felt like -- if someone you loved turned their back on you , maybe you 'd -- carly : maybe i 'd what ? parker : maybe you 'd never ever go away again . carly : parker , you have nothing -- and i mean this , you have nothing to be sorry for . i 'm the one who hurt you and hurt this family . i 'm the one who made an unforgivable mistake when i left . and there is n't anything that you 've done or said to me since i 've been back that has n't been completely justified . and i want you to know something -- i am not going to leave you again . ever . and i mean that with all my heart . i was pretty nervous , apprehensive . lucinda : well , are we in business ? bill : according to the tower , mr . montgomery 's pilot drew up a flight plan for seattle . paul : seattle ? great , thank you . bill : unfortunately , the plane changed course mid - flight . now , my buddy at the tower pulled some coordinates , and his best guess is that it was headed north to canada . somewhere around vancouver . lucinda : well , is there no way , not technically , that you can be sure ? bill : sorry i could n't be more help . lucinda : hey , thank you for your time . bill : do n't mention it . and ms . walsh -- i mean that . don't . lucinda : oh , you can count on me . you can count on my confidentiality . bye . well , not much , but it 's a start ! meg : if you 're going to insist on more surprises , then i have something to ask from you . craig : what ? meg : well , i was rushed out of my wedding , taken straight to an airplane , and then transported to an undisclosed location -- after all that , i would really appreciate a hot shower . at least wash my face and brush my hair . craig : you look fine to me . meg : i may look fine , but i feel like a mess . please ? craig : sure . of course , absolutely . oh , why do n't you take this to put on later ? hmm ? meg : it 's beautiful . craig : i bought that for you the day that you agreed to marry me . and i have been picturing you wearing that on our wedding night ever since -- not that you 're going to be in it very long , you know what i mean ? meg : craig , can i ask you something ? between the wedding and the trip , i 'm exhausted . would you be terribly disappointed if we just -- went to sleep ? craig : do i mind ? now , meg -- what do you think ? maddie : hey , we 're back -- sorry it took so long . luke : hey , wait , wait -- one second . just let me finish this thought . done ! maddie : with what ? luke : i think i have the perfect proposal for our summer intern project . noah : you wrote a story ? luke : yeah . maddie : well , are you going to share it ? luke : oh , yeah . [ maddie laughs ] it 's about this -- this person , a woman . maddie : ooh -- luke : a woman who has been burned real bad by love . and -- she promises that she 's not going to get involved with the wrong guy again . maddie : okay , i 'm going to interrupt you . luke : i know , i know . it 's probably just so stupid . you probably hate it . maddie : no , no , no , no . stop ! i love it . i just -- i think that noah and i should read it ourselves . noah : yeah . luke : oh , okay . carly : it 's been quite a night . jack : apparently . carly : rollercoaster , more or less . you can sleep . parker : no , i 'm going to go to bed . good night . carly : good night . i love you . jack : thanks , buddy . here . here 's your stuff . parker : thanks . jack : yeah . it 's been months since he 's hugged me . that was the last thing i expected . wow . yeah , 'cause when i left here , i was worried he was going to bolt . carly : yeah , i know you were . i did n't know what he was going to do . i played a little music . at first , it did n't seem to register at all -- but then these feelings just came pouring out of him . jack : i 'm glad you knew what to do . i owe you an apology . carly : no , you don't . jack : yes , i do . i 've been really angry with you . and i think that got in the way of me seeing what a great mom you are . you 're an amazing mother . carly : you know , i 've been thinking . i was hoping that i could have dinner with all the kids . you know , maybe have a barbecue or something . jack : yeah , all right . well , we 'll get our schedules together and we 'll work something out . carly : thank you . jack : they really missed you , carly . and even though holden and emma and everybody kind of pitched in the best they could , they -- they need you . they need you so much . carly : you do n't know how much it means to me to hear you say that . between my two phone bills , its probably about $ 60 a month . katie : i 'm sorry to interrupt . i -- you left parker 's glove in the car . i thought he needed it for tomorrow . jack : right . no , no . no , it 's perfect . he 's going to need this . carly : thank you . and thank you for watching the kids today . katie : you 're welcome . they 're such great kids . i 'll wait for you in the car . jack : you know what ? i was just leaving . good night , carly . carly : good night , jack . maddie : luke , this is incredible . i mean , it 's just an outline and i 'm practically in tears . noah : maddie 's right , it 's really awesome . luke : thanks . maddie : the main character , the girl , she 's so afraid to fall in love again . luke : well , it 's not that she does n't want to . she just does n't want to keep falling for the wrong people . she 's willing to have exactly what she wants or nothing at all . noah : you 're really into this idea , are n't you ?

[ scene_break ] craig : last winter when i was abroad , i was painfully reminded that what matters most is the people you love . your family , your friends . so i propose another toast , to you , who have supported me when maybe i have n't deserved it . let me have it when i have . i owe you more than -- than i can say . dusty : i was there when the kidnapping went down . luckily , i got to lucy before craig even had a chance to pull off his heroic rescue attempt . jennifer : yeah , i would say that 's lucky . dusty : yes and no . the kidnappers that craig hired wanted money , naturally . craig does n't have money . not real money . not the kind of money to pay off a ransom on lucinda walsh 's grandchild , you understand ? what does craig do ? he decides to blow them off . this infuriates don and wade . they try to go after lucy then on their own . jennifer : well , you said that someone was killed . dusty : i found don , on a rooftop , bleeding hole in his chest . and he told me that craig shot him before he died . and craig was obviously prepared to blame me , 'cause he used my gun . he also shot alan drake . you remember sierra 's husband ? there was a second ransom made . alan made the drop . craig shows up . next thing you know , alan 's dead . wade is dead , and nobody knows whether lucy is alive or not . thank god , thank god , i found her in time . she so easily could have died because of craig . [ scene_break ] craig : i 'm a very lucky guy . despite all my mistakes , i 'm still here . for the moment . and more importantly , so , for better or worse , are all of you . so , i propose another toast to you . may you be as happy and as blessed as i am .

[ scene_break ] henry : katie ! simon ! the man who came to breakfast , lunch and dinner is home . katie : we 're upstairs in the bedroom . come on up . henry : hey , hey , hey , sorry . hey , you know , i 've been thinking about you and your trip to australia , and i realize that there 's an up side to it . katie : really ? henry : absolutely . absolutely . i mean , let 's just think about it -- how many years have i just been a grain of sand underneath the eyelid of your relationship ? simon : oh , uh , how many years has it been ? one -- henry : right . absolutely . okay , she understands . the point i 'm trying to make is , you know what , i need my own life , my own relationships . with you and simon here , i 'm never going to get off the ground . so i plan on looking at this departure as an opportunity . you know , one that i wish had happened much sooner . katie : you 're miserable , are n't you ? henry : how 'd you guess ? i 'm all right . i 'm all right . katie : no , no , no . listen , we 're not going that far . well , it 's far . but listen , as soon as we get settled in , you can come visit us . simon : absolutely . with a round - trip ticket . i 'm going to go wait for the guests . katie : come here . i want you to do something for me . henry : name it . anything . katie : find a girl , fall in love and show her the heart you 've shown me . henry : okay . i 'll get on that first thing in the morning . as for you , doctor , why do n't take the rest of the afternoon off . katie : henry , i 'm serious . you are an incredible person , and you deserve to be loved . henry : thanks . thanks . i 'll do my best to make that happen , okay ? in the meantime , i do n't want you to worry about me . katie : oh , well , that 's not going to happen . i 'm going to worry about you and margo and my niece and my nephews and a hundred other people , all the way down to craig , even . henry : what about mike ? katie : i could n't forget about mike . he does n't need me to worry about him anymore . so -- anyway , i want you to promise me that you will take snickers over to nancy 's . henry : it 's on my agenda . katie : and if faux comes back , you 'll take her over there , too ? henry : where is the little heartbreaker ? i noticed that her part of the cage is still empty . katie : well , simon seems to think that she 's out in the woods . but who knows ? maybe she 'll come back . henry : i will , uh , i 'll leave some pellets on that stump by the garden . katie : okay . thanks . we should go downstairs . henry : how do i look ? katie : like the best friend i ever had . okay . you -- i 'm coming back to feed you one last time , my sweet .

[ scene_break ] jordan : i know that you are used to having cabot to yourself . but he has a father , now -- a real one . and you have to make space in his life for me . rosanna : that sounds an awful lot like an ultimatum . and you know how i feel about those . jordan : i do n't want to turn this into a battle of wills . but , i 'm just asking for some time with my son . there is nothing unusual about that . jennifer : hey . i brought those things you wanted , jordan . and i thought you might need this . is everyone okay ? rosanna : well , we 've certainly hit our quota of visitors for the day , have n't we ? and a diaper bag ? my , my , are n't we committed ? jordan : well , i 'm so glad that you noticed . rosanna : as you said , we have things that we need to discuss . but i 'm going to put cabot down upstairs so he wo n't be disturbed . jordan : i can do it . paul : i can do it . jennifer : or me . rosanna : no . i do n't think so . it 's my job . paul : need any help ? rosanna : no , thank you . but i could use some company . [ scene_break ] jennifer : i missed you terribly . jordan : same here . so , what 'd you get ? jennifer : a crib , toys , baby food , diapers -- i had no idea what to get , but there must be some of the right things in there . jordan : you 're wonderful . well , i guess i 'll set up the crib when i get back . jennifer : already done . jordan : you set up the crib , too ? jennifer : alfonso , the lakeview handyman . jordan : ah . jennifer : yeah . jordan : smart . jennifer : well , i did n't know if you 'd be bringing cabot back there today . and if you do , i want to make sure he feels at home . rosanna : make sure he feels at home where ? jordan , if you want to be a parent , i am willing to put up with that . but cabot does not leave this house without me . [ scene_break ] ben : it looked like you two were really getting into it . doc : yeah , i got into a little one - on - one last night with the doorman whose brother used to played for the bengal 's . one of those guys i knocked out of a game a few years back . my lawyer here was just reading me the riot act . ben : well , it sounded like you were reading it to her . doc : well , you know how it is being a former defender , man . you ca n't get that tuff out of your blood sometimes , but -- she was right , as usual . yeah , i 'm going to take your advice and do what you said . just make sure no one knows about my -- bad behavior . jessica : that would be wise . doc : hey , man . i did n't mean to shake things up , all right ? you two have a good day . ben : remember when doc first came to town ? and i was so excited about getting to know him ? jessica : yeah . ben : i 'm not excited anymore . in fact , i 'd like you to think about dropping him as a client . jessica : sweetheart , when do you tell me who i should or should n't have as a client ? and anyway , he 's good for my practice . ben : well , he 's bad for everything else . the guy is high - maintenance , is he really worth it ? it 's like he lives to stir things up . i mean , any other time , that might be fine , but we are trying to get pregnant here . jessica : are you sure that 's still what you want to do ? i mean , we 've been having so many disagreements about it -- ben : of course , that 's what i want . i 'm not sure how it 's gon na happen , but you and i are having a baby . jessica : oh , thank you , sweetheart . you know just what i need to hear . ben : so , does that mean that you 're gon na think about telling mr. reese to find himself a new attorney ? jessica : doc is n't important . i 'm not gon na let him get to me . [ scene_break ] bob : asking doc reese if he 's sleeping with your wife wo n't accomplish anything . tom : well , it might give me a chance to punch him in the mouth . bob : that 's exactly what i mean . do n't do anything that you 're going to regret . tom : you know , when i think about all the problems that margo and i have gotten through -- this is the time of our life , our marriage , when we should be just relaxing and enjoying each other . now the good times have finally here , and what does she do ? bob : one more time . you do n't know if she 's done anything . tom : i do know , dad . because i know margo . what i do n't know is how i 'm going to get through this party pretending like nothing has happened . bob : all right . look , why do n't i take kim and grandmother to the party and you and margo stay here and talk . kim : okay , you guys , let 's get in the car . the party 's gon na be over before we get there . tom : all right . see you there . kim : okay , honey . margo : tom ?

'cause we 're always going to be a part of each other , right ? i mean , i 've got your liver . but you 've got my heart . katie : fun party , huh ? margo : yahoo ! katie : i 'm gon na go pull myself together . jessica : is everything okay ? margo : no , it 's not . i mean , tom is just acting so strange . i think that he might know something . jessica : what do you mean , know something . like what ? margo : about me and doc . jessica : margo , no . margo : i do n't know , maybe it 's just because i 'm feeling so guilty about what i did , but i just -- well , you know what that feels like , hiding something from the man you love . jessica : i 'm not sure what you mean . margo : i mean what happened between you and marshall . i mean , granted , things did n't go that far with doc , thank god , but it was n't for lack of trying . ben : so , shannon works with katie at the hospital . tom : hi , it 's nice to meet you . ben : so , did you get somebody to cover your shift ? or did you just sneak out and hope that nobody would notice ? kim : you know something -- i was just telling your dad how much fun it would be if we could all go to australia . would n't that be fun ? you , and margo , and the kids , and your dad and me -- tom : well -- ben : hey , um , i should introduce -- kim hughes , this is shannon thomas . kim : oh , hi . nice to meet you . shannon : hi . same here . are you the mrs. hughes who owns woak ? nurse # 1 : i was going to ask you about doc reese . kim : oh , doc reese . i know exactly what you 're going to ask , and the answer is yes , he 's even more attractive in person . ben : oh , see -- the women at the hospital have this thing for doc reese . how about at your place ? tom : my place ? ben : yeah , you know , the da 's office . tom : oh , you know what , i just try not to notice . nancy : snickers will be my first rabbit . is there anything special i should know about it ? simon : no , no . he 's pretty low maintenance . but katie 's got a couple of books upstairs . when i get a chance , i 'll go get them for you . nancy : that would be helpful . i do n't mind , simon , telling you that i 'm very sad that you 're taking katie away from us . simon : look , i know she 's gon na miss you , too . i mean , you mean a lot to her . but if it makes you feel any better , i think this whole change is going to be great for her -- for us . nancy : you mean because of where you found her when you came back here ? simon : yeah . well , i 'm only sorry i did n't come back sooner . i mean , if someone had called me and told me that pilar had sent katie into a mental institution -- nancy : i did n't realize that you had known pilar before you came back here . simon : i did n't . no , no , no , i 'm just saying , i 've heard so much about her since i 've been back here , i feel like i know her . but , no , i 've never met her . [ scene_break ] bob : i saw you come out here . are you okay ? tom : yeah , margo and i should have probably stayed at your house and talk , like you said . my first attempt at joining the party was not a success . bob : what happened ? tom : oh , i do n't know , everybody going on and on about how all the women in oakdale are so attracted to doc reese . you know , it 's just not what i wanted to hear . bob : that 's just party chatter . it does n't mean anything . tom : it 's not chatter when my wife is the one sleeping with the guy . [ scene_break ] katie : i look any better ? margo : you look like you have n't got a care in the world . katie : oh , i would n't go that far . i keep asking myself if i 'm doing the right thing . but i made a choice , i know . it just -- was n't always easy . margo : mike ? look , baby , i know the last couple of months have been really hard for you . but you did do the right thing . you stayed loyal to your husband . simon : listen , i 'm going to grab that book for you , mrs. hughes . do n't you go anywhere , young lady . [ scene_break ] pilar : yep , this should work perfectly . well , at least for me . simon : is somebody up here ?

[ scene_break ] margo : would you please stop talking to me in riddles ? tom : you want answers ? go get 'em from doc reese ! margo : what ? [ scene_break ] jordan : i 'm getting a little tired of you laying down the law to me , rosanna . all jen said is that -- rosanna : is that she wants cabot to feel at home someplace else . jordan : it 's only fair that cabot spend some of his time with you , and some of his time with me . you know , i want him to be as comfortable at my place as he is here . rosanna : cabot has been moved around enough . i want him to feel settled . i do n't want to confuse him . jordan : all right . well , that i can understand . we both want what 's best for him , so , for now , we will keep the status quo . paul : for now ? jordan : but if you expect me to just stand in the shadows , waiting for permission to be his father , then you are in for a fight that will never end . rosanna : i 'd like to propose a deal . paul : rosanna -- do n't do this . jordan will twist everything around . rosanna : actually , paul , it was your idea . jordan , how would you feel about moving in with me ? paul : that was just a joke . i did n't think anybody would take me seriously . rosanna : well , why not ? jordan wants to have more time with cabot . i could certainly use the help . it might work out for everybody . jordan : but , for how long ? jennifer : good question . rosanna : well , i 'd rather not set a time limit . let 's just say until cabot feels comfortable , and you feel that you 've bonded with him . jordan : okay . and then what ? rosanna : well , we could have our marriage annulled , certainly . and perhaps set up joint custody ? we 'll see . we 'll move on . paul : rosanna , excuse me . you were willing to get on a plane and leave everything you knew behind to get away from stenbeck . now you 're going to invite this -- this into your home ? james controls jordan . rosanna , please do n't do this . jennifer : jordan , i know you care about cabot , but you do n't have go by her rules . rosanna : look , if the two of you do n't mind , this is between jordan and me . jordan , what do you say ? shall i set up a room for you ? jordan : okay . i 'll move in .

[ scene_break ] paul : it 's not too late , you know . you can still change your mind . jordan comes back , you tell him he ca n't move in . rosanna : i 'm not going to do that . paul : you 've already let stenbeck get closer to cabot than he should ever be . putting jordan here is like asking james to baby - sit . rosanna : i 'll increase security at the gates . paul : you do n't honestly think that that 's going to stop my father ? rosanna : i 'll put guards on the roof . i 'll put dogs in the yard . i 'll do whatever it takes . paul : why are you being so stubborn about this ? rosanna : do you think i want jordan here , living with me ? of course i do n't . i do n't want him under my feet all the time . but i think it might be what 's best for cabot . carly has been at me constantly , saying how a child needs two loving parents . and if jordan wants to be a loving parent to cabot , then i think it quite possibly could be cruel to deny cabot that . paul : you want to know about cruel ? let me explain to you how cruel my father can be . rosanna : i understand , okay ? but did n't you also tell me that i should compromise with jordan so james would n't get mad ? paul : compromise is one thing . exposing yourself to danger -- that 's another thing . rosanna : i 've made my decision , okay ? paul : i 'm sorry . i wo n't say anything else . but if james is going to be so close , you 're going to need protection . [ scene_break ] simon : what 's with you two ? now , i have no idea who pilar is , so what are we even talking about this for ? katie : well , mrs. hughes is pretty sharp . something gave here that idea , i 'm sure . simon : yeah , well , listen , ever since i 've got back into town , i 've heard all these horror stories about pilar . pilar did this , pilar did that . so , yeah , i might have sounded a little familiar with her . why is that so strange ? katie : oh , you 're right . i 'm sorry , honey , it 's just that every time i hear that woman 's name , it drives me up the wall . simon : okay , so let 's all make a little pact , here . we 're never going to mention pilar again , right ? katie : fine by me . simon : deal ? okay , so let 's get back to the business of saying good - bye . katie : let 's mingle . [ scene_break ] bob : you know , we had five architects bid on the er expansion . the one we chose , it 's just going to be state - of - the - art . margo : you know what , bob -- could you excuse me ? 'cause i really want to go talk to tom . bob : oh , you talk to him anytime . you have n't heard all my doctor jokes . margo : i know all the punch lines . i 'll take a rain check . you know , i always had a thing for the strong , silent type . i just did n't know that you were one of them . you want to tell me what 's on your mind ? tom : i did n't think you were interested .

[ scene_break ] pilar : poor katie . she 's not going to like this . [ scene_break ] rosanna : i know how stenbeck tormented you . and i do n't blame you for being cautious . but i promise you , i wo n't let him get the better of me . paul : thank you . i hope you have a plan to stop him , because increasing security is not going to be enough . and it is exactly what james is expecting you to do . jordan : cabot is still sleeping . that blanket trick is a miracle . just one question , though . are you sure it 's still okay for me to move in here ? rosanna : positive . jordan : good . well , then i will be back in a couple of hours with my things . rosanna : you 're more than welcome . jennifer : i hope that goes for me , too , rosanna . because you should probably know , i 'm gon na be spending a lot of time here . paul : and so will i . [ scene_break ] kim : doc , i 'd like to have a word with you . doc : something the matter , mrs. hughes ? kim : maybe you should tell me . margo : all right -- this has gone on long enough . something 's bothering you , tom . and i got ta know what it is . tom : you got ta get away from me , because i do n't want to talk to you . margo : but why ? what happened ? tom : you think i have to answer that ? margo : yes , i think you do . i 'm worried about you . i 've never seen you like this before . tom : well , that 's funny . you see , that 's exactly how i feel about you . margo : would you please stop talking to me in riddles ? tom : you want answers ? go get 'em from doc reese . margo : what ? tom : you get it now , margo ? i know what you did . [ scene_break ] katie : snickers , my sweet little angel -- pilar : a lot of people think these animals never make a sound . but they do , you know ? especially when they 're terrified . and today we 're going to find out what it 's like -- to hear a rabbit scream . [ next_on ] pilar : go out that window with me , or all you 'll have left is a nasty little bloodstain to remember him by . margo : yes , i did . i went to see doc . that 's who i was with last night . paul : i 'll help you . i wan na be there for you . i wan na keep you safe . carly : why is that , paul ? what 's in it for you ?	pilar is thwarted in her murder attempt by simon , but as the goodbye party progresses , she threatens snickers when katie comes up to feed him for the last time . henry overhears simon talking with nancy and realizes that simon has been in cahoots with pilar the whole time . tom makes an embarrassing accusation to margo at the party . ben catches doc being a jerk to jessica and they explain it away as a lawyer / client dispute , ben telling jessica she needs to dump him as a client . roseanna invites jordan to move in , much to paul and jennifer 's chagrin .

[ scene_break ] judge : the purpose of this hearing is to determine if ms. stewart 's case has merit , if memorial hospital , through the person of dr. christopher hughes , impeded ms. stewart 's studies and her career by engaging in sexual harassment . i find that ms. stewart has indeed been treated unfairly . dr. hughes improperly asserted his authority by interfering in ms. stewart 's studies , and ergo , her career . i would expect a doctor to have better judgment . at the same time , plaintiff was a willing participant in this relationship , and she seemed to have no trouble accepting -- favors from the defendant as long as he was giving them out . did dr. hughes intentionally sabotage ms. stewart 's studies ? there is some evidence to indicate that he did . but there is yet another fact to consider here . in spite of any help she may have received , ms. stewart never achieved the expected standard of performance . ultimately , it was ms. stewart 's own limitation that caused her to be terminated from nursing school . therefore , i must find in favor of the defendant . [ gavel bangs ] emily : it 's me . do n't put the paper to bed . i want to add something to the front page -- an editorial , 1,200 words on sexual harassment and the abuse of power . and i want a picture of chris hughes as big as you can get . casey : i 'm gon na go to `` the intruder `` with you . emily : yes . no , the judge ruled in favor of hughes , but we 're not gon na mention that , are we ? casey : ready to go ? tom : hey , hey . we 're heading over to the lakeview to grab something to celebrate . you want to come with us ? casey : sorry , but i already have plans . tom : oh , okay . uh , all right . then i 'll see you later . emily : what are you doing ? go with your family ? casey : no , i 'm gon na come with you . i know -- emily : no ! would you stop ? ! stop , okay ? ! casey : what ? emily : your family 's already ticked off at me as it is ! i do n't need -- just go with your family , please . alison : i 'm sorry , mom , if i 've disappointed you . susan : you did n't ! you did n't . alison : just -- i wanted to do something important with my life . susan : and you will . i know you will . oh , listen . let 's get out of here . let 's go eat something really decadent and delicious . come on .

[ scene_break ] margo : casey , will you stop stalling ? why did you call the v.a . about riley ? casey : i was just checking up on him . margo : that was n't necessary . casey : all we know about this guy is what he told us , and i do n't trust him . margo : do n't you think that should be the other way around ? should n't it be he that does n't trust you ? i mean , after all , you stole his watch . you lied about it . you tried to get him to leave the house . casey : yes , i admit i was wrong , but it does n't mean riley 's on the up and up . margo : but you ca n't prove it , and the v.a . is n't gon na help you . casey : then i 'll find some other way . margo : casey , i want you to drop this now . casey : why are you so bent out of shape about this ? like what are you afraid you 're gon na find out ? margo : there 's nothing to find out . end of story . casey : i do n't get you , mom . what if there 's a 1 % chance that there 's something weird going on with riley ? do n't you want to know ? margo : no . quite honestly , i do n't . casey : come on ! you 're a cop , for god 's sake ! since when are you afraid to find the truth out about someone ? margo : the truth ? ! i know the truth ! i know that riley is a fine , decent young man . that 's what i know . and i believe what he 's told us about himself , and i believe what he 's told us about adam . casey : okay , what -- what do you know about this guy , mom , huh ? you act like you know his life 's story . but guess what ? all you know is what he 's told you . which means there 's probably a lot he does n't want you to know . margo : i know that you do n't like him , and you want to find a way to justify that . so you decided that he 's hiding something . well , he 's not . and that 's the end of it , casey ! let it go . i 'm gon na get back to work . okay ? [ scene_break ] riley : look , his mind is made up . luke is determined on joining noah at the army base . winston : that is not acceptable . tell him again that he needs clearance and he wo n't get it . riley : i did , but he 's not backing down ! the two of them are coming together no matter what i say ! winston : that is not an option ! now , if you -- you listen to me , you little -- if you do n't want your identity exposed , you will find a way to get noah here by himself ! do i make myself clear ? riley : yes , sir . winston : now , i can call margo hughes right now and tell her all about you , or you can call my son noah and get this plan back on track . it 's your choice . [ scene_break ] luke : i 'm just gon na get my overnight bag , and bring it back . noah : cool . luke -- are you sure you want to go through with this ? luke : i want to do what 's right for you , and you need to make this movie . [ cell phone rings ] noah : hello . riley : noah , hey , it 's riley . listen , i think i may have found a way to get luke the clearance he needs . noah : are you serious ? ! that 's great ! riley : but you 're gon na have to talk to lieutenant hasbro alone first , just to do a background check , talk to him about the movie , tell him what you 'll need . noah : that 's cool . no problem . riley : good . i 'll set it up . noah : thank you so much , riley . luke : who was that ? noah : that was riley . he thinks he might be able to get you a pass onto the base . all i 've got to do is talk to lieutenant hasbro first alone . luke : why ? noah : uh , he wanted to go over details , you know , like where we 're gon na be shooting and for how long , stuff like that . luke : why ca n't i be there for that ? noah : does it really matter ? luke : i do n't know . i 'm starting to get a bad feeling about this , noah . i do n't want you to go . [ scene_break ] carly : i should have known better than to think you 'd be on my side . craig : what are you talking about ? carly : why should you be any different than jack ? ! craig : oh , hold on just a minute . i am nothing like your ex - husband , and you know that . carly : no , i do n't . you 're both suspicious . neither of you trusts me . craig : i have been nothing but supportive of you , and i do trust you . you told me you have n't been drinking , and i believed you . carly : then what 's the problem ? ! craig : i think it 's great that you quit drinking , and i know it has n't been easy . but i think you should just avoid the stress for a while . carly : you do n't think i 'm strong enough to stay on the wagon . is that it ? craig : i think it 's tough to quit any habit , especially the bad ones . and when too much tension starts to pile up , people that have given up a habit are tempted to relapse . i think it 's best if you just try to avoid the pressure for a while . carly : i thought getting married would relieve pressure , not add more . craig : i 'm just trying to think of what 's best for you , carly . carly : what 's best for me is not having people second - guess me all the time ! craig : then how about trying to avoid the pitfalls ? carly : the bottom line here is that you do n't trust me . and i have enough suspicion coming at me from jack and from parker . i do n't need any more . so you know what ? let 's just forget about moving up the wedding ! in fact , let 's forget about the wedding altogether ! i 'm much better off alone ! [ scene_break ] parker : should i have told aunt rosanna that my mom started drinking again ? janet : sweetie , whether you say anything or not , the people who are close to carly are gon na find out . if she 's fallen off the wagon , she 's not gon na be able to hide it . parker : yeah , but rosanna 's her sister . maybe -- maybe she could say something or do something . janet : the only person who can do anything about this is your mother . take a little pressure off yourself . parker , you ca n't fix everything . jack : hey . janet : hi . parker : hey , hey . d -- dad , what happened ? did you talk to mom ? is she okay ? jack : i told your mom you saw her drinking . she denied the whole thing . janet : oh , no . jack : she was very defensive . parker : i was afraid of that . jack : craig was no help . he pretty much backed her up . janet : he did ? jack : he swears carly stopped drinking . janet : you do n't believe him ? jack : no , i do n't . parker : so he said i was lying ? jack : he said you might be making the whole thing up because you do n't want the two of them to get married . parker : that 's bull ! dad , i was telling the truth ! i saw her ! jack : i believe you , parker . i believe you . obviously , craig is covering for her . janet : well , you do n't know that for sure . maybe craig does n't even know the truth . maybe no one is hiding anything except carly . [ scene_break ] craig : would you just listen to me for a second . 'cause you 've got this all wrong . carly : of course i 'm always wrong . just ask jack . craig : all right , stop it . there 's nothing i want more than to get married to you . and if you want to go to the courthouse and tie the knot right now , fine . let 's go . seriously , i -- i do n't want to argue with you . so can we talk about this , please ? carly : all right . what is it you want to say ? craig : first of all , you have to know that i am on your side , always . as long as i 'm with you , i have what i need to be happy . if it makes you happy to move up the wedding , then fine . i 'm in . carly : do you mean that ? craig : i do . [ craig laughs ] craig : whenever you want to say i do , i 'm there . carly : all right . craig : do you want to get out a calendar ? we 'll pick out a date . carly : no . we -- we do n't have to do that right now . we can do it some other time . craig : well , then , what about a wedding planner ? i mean , that can take off some of the pressure . carly : oh , no . [ carly laughs ] carly : i can -- i can handle it myself . trust me . craig : as long as i know that you 'll be mrs. craig montgomery , i have everything i need . carly : everything ? craig : just tell me the wedding 's still officially on . carly : it 's on . [ scene_break ] casey : veterans administration . [ scene_break ] winston : now , that was n't so hard , was it ? riley : when noah gets here and finds out you 're alive , what are you going to do ? winston : that 's classified information . you work on a need - to - know basis , remember that . riley : i will . winston : i need to see my son . i need to see him alone . now go get him and bring him here . and do n't mess this up , or you 'll regret it . [ scene_break ] luke : i just do n't know why you have to go talk to lieutenant hasbro by yourself . kind of creeps me out . noah : i 'm gon na be in a military base . there 's gon na be tons of people . i 'll be perfectly safe . luke : yeah , i guess so . noah : luke , if we ca n't get a pass like this onto the base through riley , we 'll go back to plan `` a. `` okay ? cool ? luke : okay , cool . casey : guys , i told you there 's something weird about riley . noah : whoa . casey , what happened ? casey : i got in contact with the veterans administration in d.c . i had to jump through all these hoops , sign forms and stuff . but i got what i was looking for . casey : `` dear mr. hughes , we regret to inform you that the service member you inquired about , sergeant riley morgan -- `` noah : `` -- was killed in an explosion in kabul , afghanistan `` ? well , there 's got to be a mistake . luke : yeah . i mean , riley 's alive . casey : no , but it 's not riley . look , i got this picture with the letter . luke : wait , wait , wait . if this is riley , then who the hell is the guy living at your house , pretending to be your dead brother 's friend ? casey : that 's what i 'm here to find out . i do n't know who this guy is pretending to be riley morgan , but obviously he 's trying to scam my mom . noah : why ? ! casey : i do n't know . maybe he actually knew adam in afghanistan , and when he died , he thought he could move in on his family . but , of course , he needed a fake identity , so he found the first dead guy he could find , and it was riley morgan . noah : whoever he is , we got to figure out what he 's up to . luke : i agree . noah : i mean , if he 's a con artist , why is he going after your parents ? it 's not like they 're multimillionaires . casey : maybe he has something against my mom . maybe she sent someone away to jail that he knew . noah : why is he helping us ? why is he bending over backwards to get you a pass onto the base ? what 's up with that ? luke : i do n't know . but i do n't want you going anywhere with that guy . casey : yes , luke 's right . you got to stay away from riley . noah : casey , it 's your family i 'm worried about . what are you gon na do ? casey : i 'm -- i 'm gon na go straight to my mom with this . but she 's -- she 's not gon na be happy . i was hoping you guys could come with me and just give me some backup . noah : of course . luke : yeah . casey : let 's go . [ scene_break ] craig : thank you for coming . can i , uh , get you a drink ? rosanna : you know , let 's not pretend this is social . what do you want ? craig : well , to get to the point , carly and i may be moving up the wedding . rosanna : are you pressuring her ? [ craig chuckles ] craig : no , no . actually , it 's her idea . she said she 'd rather do it sooner than later . rosanna : what do you think about that ? craig : i think i 'd marry carly anytime . rosanna : bully for you . craig : well , the point is , she 's been through an awful lot in the last few months , and she could really use your support . rosanna : i 've already given my approval , craig . what more do you want ? craig : more to the point , she could really use your help -- bringing the kids on board , planning a wedding , dealing with jack . rosanna : what do you want from me , craig ? craig : i want you to move in . rosanna : you want -- you want me to move in with carly and the kids ? craig : yes . she needs you , rosanna . your sister needs you . [ scene_break ] jack : well , i think you 're wrong , janet . i think craig does know about the drinking , and he 's just putting up a front so carly can save face . janet : you do n't know that for sure . jack : it does n't matter what i know . if carly 's drinking , there 's not a lot i can do about it . janet : that 's true . it 's not your place . i was just telling parker that the only one who can do anything about this is carly , hopefully with craig 's help . [ jack sighs ] parker : it scares me to see mom like this . jack : i know , buddy . parker : if she decides to get behind the wheel again , i 'm afraid she 's gon na do something terrible . jack : okay . what do you want to do ? parker : i wish i could make her tell the truth , but i ca n't . jack : no . janet 's right . it 's not your job to try and fix this . but if you do n't feel comfortable staying at that house , you can always move out to the farm . parker : i -- i ca n't leave sage with mom . jack : no , i know that . i would n't move you out there without moving her out there . there 's plenty of room . parker : i do n't know . i mean , moving out on mom 's a pretty big step . jack : right . parker : and i do n't want to do anything to make things worse for her . jack : okay , all right . why do n't you think about it ? take tonight , think about it . talk to your sister . see how she feels , okay ? parker : okay . um , janet , my shift 's over . i think i 'm gon na take off . janet : go ahead . jack : do you want a ride ? parker : i 've got my bike . see you later . janet : jack , you 're making a big mistake . [ scene_break ] rosanna : do n't try to guilt me , craig . you know how much i care about carly . craig : i know . so do this for her . move in with her ! i mean , you ca n't afford to live at the lakeview indefinitely . rosanna : you 're right . i 'm broke , thanks to you . craig : i know you 're never gon na forgive me for that , and for many other things . but it really is n't fair to make carly suffer for my mistakes . rosanna : oh , my goodness . do n't make me sit here and listen to you lecture me on the subject of fairness . craig : all i 'm saying is that the reason you would n't stay with her in the first place is because you did n't want to see me . rosanna : yeah , you 're right . and that has n't changed . craig : but it has to , sooner or later , once we get married . oh , come on ! you might as well get a jump on things . rosanna : oh , my g -- you know , i would -- i would do anything to help carly . but i do n't -- i do n't understand . i mean , i ca n't imagine that you would want me around morning , noon , and night . craig : but if it makes carly happy , and it will , then i 'm all for it . rosanna : i do n't know . i -- why do i get the feeling you 're not telling me something ? craig : the point is we both want what 's best for carly right now . and i have to say , this would certainly benefit the both of you . rosanna : i 'm willing , okay ? i 'm -- i 'm willing . but i 'll only do it if it 's what carly wants . craig : it is . i can promise you , it is .

[ both laughing ] rosanna : except for some people . um , but you 're right . i needed to move . carly : how can you afford the lakeview ? rosanna : i ca n't . um , i just interviewed for a job at the wagon wheel as a manager , but it does n't really pay that much . so i was wondering if your offer to stay here with you is still good . carly : yes . of course it is . rosanna : if it 's a problem -- carly : it 's not ! no , there 's no problem at all . it 's just craig and i , um -- we 're gon na move up the wedding . rosanna : yeah , i know . he told me . carly : when did you talk to craig ? rosanna : i saw him at the lakeview . carly : oh . so it 's okay with you ? you -- you still want to move in with me ? rosanna : honey , of course . you 're my sister . i love you . you 're -- you 're getting married . i would n't want to be anywhere else . [ scene_break ] janet : there you go . thank you . i understand that you 're worried about the kids being in the house with carly , especially if she is drinking . but i 'm worried about my kid , too ! liberty and parker at the farm together ? uhh - uh . not gon na work . and i really wish you would have discussed it with me first before you made that offer to parker . jack : you 're right . i 'm sorry . i should have . janet : okay . thank you . i just want to make sure we 're on the same page . jack : no , i understand that , and we should -- and we should be . it 's just that i 'm so damn worried about my kids , all i can think about is getting them out of there . janet : okay , but think about the bigger picture here . once craig and carly get married and he moves into the house with her , things could get better , you know ? i mean , he could be just what she needs there . [ jack laughs ] jack : i doubt it . janet : all right . i do n't want to fight with you , jack . but it 's a possibility that there is someone out there who could be good for carly besides yourself . so let 's give craig a chance to be that person . [ scene_break ] craig : hey . parker . parker : are those for my mom ? [ craig chuckles ] craig : how 'd you guess ? want to help me deliver them ? parker : no thanks . go ahead . craig : i know you 're worried about your mom , but you really should n't be . parker : really ? why not ? 'cause if she started drinking again , craig -- craig : you know what ? i 've got that all taken care of . i 've convinced your aunt rosanna to move in for a while . that way you and sage will have another adult in the house -- someone to keep an eye on things . parker : and how 'd you get her to go along with that ? i mean , she hates your guts . craig : but she loves your mother . she 's family . parker : so does this mean that you knew i was n't lying ? i saw my mom drinking , craig . craig : you know , whatever 's happened in the past does n't matter . i think it 's really good that your aunt 's gon na move in . it 'll give your mom the kind of support she needs . hey , you need a ride home ? parker : yeah . um , can i put my bike in your car ? craig : sure , sure . i 'm right around the corner . there you go . parker : thanks . [ scene_break ] winston : damn it ! where the hell are you ? you should have had noah here by now . i guess we 're just gon na have to do this the hard way , though , huh ? casey : riley 's obviously not who he says he is . so what are we gon na do ? margo : who else have you told about this ? casey : no one . just -- just luke and noah . i got the letter . i came straight here . but now that we have evidence , can you do something ? can -- can we arrest him ? margo : i will handle this . you three stay here . that 's an order . [ scene_break ] winston : where do you think you 're going ? riley : i ca n't help you , not anymore . noah and them -- they know the truth about me . i 'm sure casey went to the cops ! i got to get out of here before -- winston : no . you 're not going anywhere . jack : i think i have a right to be concerned , janet . janet : of course you do . and obviously , if the kids are in real danger , sage and parker could come stay with us . but i do n't think we 're there yet . jack : we could be soon . janet : we 'll cross that bridge when we get to it . and i guess , you know , i could have liberty go stay with brad and katie again . it 's just been so nice having her with me . jack : no , i know , i know . and i do n't want her to feel like she 's being chased away . janet : so what are we gon na do ? jack : i do n't know . i wish i knew . craig : sorry to interrupt . parker 's in the car . i 'll drive him back to carly 's . jack : i could have done that . janet : jack -- carly : i just wanted you to know that carly and i have decided to move up the wedding . rosanna 's moving in for the time being . give her a hand , help her stay centered . jack : was that your idea ? craig : yes , it was , as a matter of fact . i think it 'll be good for carly to have a houseful of people . she 's tempted to drink , she 'll have all the support she needs . jack : i think rosanna moving in is a great idea , craig . craig : i agree . and i told parker . he feels better about the whole situation . janet : thank you for letting us know . craig : you 're welcome . excuse me . i need to get these to carly . janet : see ? ! maybe things have a way of working themselves out after all . [ scene_break ] carly : you can move in as soon as you want . rosanna : i would n't mind getting out of the lakeview tonight . are you sure that 's okay ? carly : yeah , of course . and we 'll try to give you your privacy , which can be difficult with the kids . rosanna : oh , do n't worry about it . it 'll be great to be part of the family , you know ? carly : oh , hey , parker . craig . i was n't expecting you . craig : you probably were n't expecting these , either , but they 're yours anyway . carly : oh -- thank you . rosanna : they 're beautiful . parker : aunt rosanna , i -- i heard you 're moving in . that 's cool . rosanna : yeah . i -- i hope you do n't mind . parker : no , not at all . rosanna : you 're gon na be surrounded by women . craig : no , not for long . once we get hitched , i 'll be moving in , and parker here will have some reinforcements . rosanna : oh , great . um , i think i should get to the lakeview and pack up my stuff . carly : okay . parker : why do n't i drive you over and help you get your suitcases and things ? rosanna : that would be great . thank you . parker : mom , is that okay ? carly : yes , of course . absolutely . my keys are right there . rosanna : all right . we 'll see you soon . craig : okay . rosanna : great . bye . craig : well , looks like everything turned out all right . carly : you arranged for rosanna to move in here , did n't you ? craig : as a matter of fact , i did . carly : why would you do that , craig ? [ scene_break ] jack : you know why craig is having rosanna move in there , do n't you ? janet : because it will make her happy . jack : partially . but i also think it means i was right . carly 's drinking again , and craig knows it . that 's why he wants rosanna there . janet : well , even if that 's true , it means that craig has found a way to take care of her . which is his job from now on , not yours . jack : just hope he knows what he 's doing . [ scene_break ] craig : i -- i 'm confused . first you 're upset that rosanna wo n't move in here because she does n't want to see me , so i take care of that problem , and you 're still upset . carly : i 'm not upset . i 'm curious . craig : i was hoping you 'd be pleased . carly : i am . craig : good . because i love you . i want you to be happy . are we okay now ? carly : yeah , yeah . we 're okay . craig : still want to move up the wedding ? no cold feet ? carly : the sooner the better . craig : oh , well , that does n't give me much time to put together your dream wedding . but i 'm sure rosanna will be a big help . carly : yes , i 'm sure she will be . and she 'll be back here soon , and i 'm gon na want some time with her to design my dress , which you can not see till our wedding day . so goodbye . craig : yeah , okay . fine .

[ scene_break ] luke : so i 'm the last person that mom wants to see right now , is that what you 're saying ? damian : i 'm saying that after all the trauma she 's been through , there 's no way to predict how she 'll react . i 'm only trying to spare you , luke . i do n't want her to make you feel guilty for something that is n't your fault . luke : dad 's the one that 's making me feel guilty . damian : look , holden is very concerned about your mother right now . but i know this is bothering you . it 's troubling you . i saw your face when he yelled at you for being in your mother 's room . i do n't want you to go through something like that again . luke : you mean , you do n't want me to give him another reason to blame me for what happened . damian : i ca n't speak for holden . even if he really did blame you , i doubt he would be so cruel to tell it to you . luke : yeah . you 're probably right . it 's just , when my mom woke up for that split second , and called out my name , i felt -- i felt like i had done something good , like maybe me being there was part of what brought her back . and when she looked at me , i mean , i thought , like -- damian : what ? luke : well , maybe i 'm just imagining things , but i thought she was trying to say that she was sorry . damian : sorry for what ? luke : for calling ross kreeger in the first place . [ damian remembering ] lily : the brochures , the literature -- it 's all propaganda . ross kreeger is a de - programmer . he brainwashes kids into thinking they 're not gay . damian : nobody can do that , lily . lily : no , they ca n't . they 're not going to do it to our son because i 'm not going to let it happen . [ scene_break ] damian : look , there 's no way at this point to know what your mother was about to say to you . that 's why i think you need to protect yourself . luke : yeah , but if i do n't go back to the hospital , they 're going to think that i 've stopped caring about my mom . damian : no one is going to think that , luke . luke : well , maybe i should call my dad . or just go to the hospital to check on her , but not go in her room -- damian : this is your decision , ultimately . but i really think it 's a bad idea . [ cell phone ringing ] damian : yeah . ross : it 's ross . i need to see you right away . damian : i really do n't think it 's possible . i thought we had an understanding . ross : the situation 's changed . and if you do n't want your son finding out from someone else how involved you 've been in all of this , i suggest you get over here , now . [ scene_break ] meg : jennifer 's repeat chest x - ray shows a significant worsening in her condition . paul : then why did bob let her go ? meg : he did n't . he left lucy montgomery in charge of jen 's case . paul : what , so lucy 's responsible ? meg : well , not entirely . the nurse said that jennifer left the hospital before anyone saw the results . and it says right here , `` patient left against medical advice . `` i mean , lucy must 've tried to convince her to stay . paul : yeah , well she did a terrible job . meg : there 's just so much anyone can do , paul . patients ca n't be forced to stay against their will . dusty : dusty should 've insisted that she stay . meg : maybe he was n't fully informed . i mean , if jennifer was determined to leave , maybe she told dusty that she was officially discharged . paul : okay , look , the bottom line -- jennifer 's still really sick , right ? she could collapse again . meg : or worse . [ scene_break ] emily : i ca n't believe jennifer left without saying good - bye . susan : maybe they were anxious to get the baby home . emily : yeah , but still -- susan : no , you 're right . dusty hustled them out of here this morning . he wants to get her as far away from you as he can get her . emily : yeah , well , who can blame him ? i mean , i do n't blame him . i did horrible things to him . susan : honey , you were n't in your right mind when you kidnapped him . anyway , i blame most of that on paul . he 's a monster . he used you . and to think , he 's going to get your baby . it 's not fair ! he should n't be allowed to be a parent . emily : guess what ? there 's nothing i can do about it if i 'm in jail . susan : that 's right . that 's why you ca n't give up . just because jennifer 's not here does n't mean you ca n't pick up the phone . emily : you think i should call jennifer ? susan : of course . well , you want to know how johnny 's doing , do n't you ? and then when she hears your voice , it 'll be a great reminder to her that the only reason she 's home with her baby is because you risked your baby . so , you remind jennifer , she reminds dusty -- and who knows ? maybe things can change . emily : i do n't have access to a phone , mom . susan : you do now . jennifer : hello ? emily : hi , jennifer . it 's emily . i heard you and johnny were released from the hospital . jennifer : yeah , this morning . emily : well , i thought you 'd come by and see me before you left , but i guess there was n't any time . jennifer : we were in a rush . emily : well , i just wanted to see how johnny was doing . he must be so happy to be home now . jennifer : yeah , he 's -- he 's great . emily : oh , god , jennifer , that 's great . it 's so great to hear that your whole family 's together , safe and sound . jennifer : because of you . emily : well , i 'm just happy it all worked out . jennifer : emily , i have n't forgotten what we talked about . i just have n't had a chance to -- to talk to dusty about it . but i will , i promise . emily : thank you for that . jennifer : i got him to say that at least he will consider the possibility of dropping the charges -- so at least it 's on his mind . emily : are you okay ? jen , you sound -- i do n't know , you sound weak . jennifer : yeah , i 'm just a little tired . emily : well , i appreciate everything you 're doing with dusty , really . jennifer : you saved my baby 's life . there 's little that i would n't do to repay you . but i 'll talk to dusty . you just have to give him some time . dusty : give me time for what ? [ scene_break ] luke : something wrong ? damian : nothing you need to worry about . so , what have you decided about visiting the hospital ? do you agree that for the time being , it 's better to wait ? luke : i guess . damian : good , good . now , why do n't you go by your parents ' house and pick up some more of your things . luke : no , no , bad idea . i do n't -- i do n't want to deal with my sisters . damian : why not ? luke : because they 're going to have all these questions about mom . and they do n't get why i 'm not staying at the house right now . damian : i 'm sure holden already explained a lot to them . plus , they 're probably missing you . luke : yeah , well , i miss them , too . damian : well , then you should go see them . luke : you think ? damian : i 'm sure it would do a world of good . luke : maybe . i just -- okay . okay , i 'll go . damian : good . and then you 'll come straight back here ? luke : yeah . damian : damn it , ross , now your phone 's off the hook ! well , you better check this before you head over here . i do n't want you near my house under any circumstances . i ca n't risk luke seeing you . ross : it 's too late for that .

what are you laughing at me for ? katie : just 'cause you 're right . cocktail parties are the worst . i never thought about it , but i 'm always trying to hold my purse and my drink and the napkin -- jack : do n't forget the little thingy on the toothpick . this way we 're good . katie : we 're so good . jack : well , we should probably get going . katie : oh my god , look , fitas ! jack : oh , knock yourself out . i could not eat another bite . katie : they 're not food . they 're umm -- brazilian , right ?

jade : because i read her diary . dallas : what diary ? cleo : it 's my diary , but it 's never seen , never read . jade : her diary that proves i did n't do this . dallas : and where 's this diary ? cleo : it 's in my locker at work . i would n't just leave it lying around . and i certainly would n't write the horrible things that she said i did . jade : oh , yeah . like about how you 're in love with will ? and how you 're going to try to get rid of gwen so the two of you can be together ? cleo : of course i love will . look at him ? he 's a wonderful person . but i love gwen , too . i would never do anything to hurt them . they 're like my dream couple . jade : oh , please . would you just save that for somebody else ? for somebody who does n't know who you are and why you 're here and how you got here ? noah : okay , i 'm hooked . why is she here ? jade : do you want to tell them , cleo ? or should i ? cleo : there 's nothing to tell ! she 's making this all up ! jade : i could n't make this up if i tried . cleo is one of a kind , no matter how much you think you look like gwen , not that you looked anything like gwen when you answered my ad months ago -- gwen : you met cleo when ? jade : before you did . i 'm the reason cleo came to oakdale . cleo : she 's making this all up ! i came because of you , gwen , and your singing . jade : you came here because you did n't have a life and you wanted gwen 's , and i can prove that without your precious diary . it 's over , cleo . it 's finished . cleo : i 'm not lying about anything and i 'm not gon na let you stand there and threaten my very good friends . will needs to go home , he 's hurt . jade : yeah , by you . dallas : you said you had proof . i 'd like to see it . jade : a few months ago , i took some space on a website and i posted a picture -- i posted gwen 's picture . i was really angry about a lot of things and i thought i was going to do this -- something to make me feel better . i was just so sick of her getting away with everything and i thought , maybe if i could -- gwen : you could what ? jade : i thought if i could find somebody that looked like you , i could get her to do something -- something really , really bad and then you could get blamed for it . will : so you advertised for someone who looks like gwen and cleo showed up ? jade : yeah , and then i realized she was a complete nut job . cleo : i 'm not a nut job . jade : at first , i did n't think she looked like gwen at all , but she could sound like gwen . i got to admit , it was -- it was pretty amazing and she already had a wig and i got her some teeth and clothes . and then i made the mistake of telling her why i was doing this and she went completely bananas , until she realized that if she helped me sideline gwen , she could be with you . cleo : that is so untrue ! i was never working with her and i would never , ever hurt you , gwen . jade : at first , no , she did n't want to do anything to hurt gwen . but then she fell for will and she realized she would do whatever it took . and that 's when i woke up . i realized this was completely insane and i tried to stop her . i told her to leave oakdale . i even bought her a bus ticket . gwen : so did we . i mean , at least we gave her enough money for one . jade : yeah , and she did n't go , because by the time she got her foot in the door , she did n't want to give up . look , she even got herself in their house . cleo : that 's because they invited me to stay with them . they like me and that 's what you ca n't stand . they do n't like you . noah : so cleo , that 's why you think jade ran will off the road , because he 's friends with you now and not her ? cleo : exactly . i mean , i do n't know their entire history , but she 's jealous of them . i mean , at least that 's what gwen said . maddie : and you claim that it 's all spelled out in cleo 's diary ? jade : that 's right . you want proof , go get the diary . jack : well , i ca n't say that it goes with your outfit . katie : that 's okay . i love it . thank you . jack : as for the wish , darling ? katie : hmm , i do n't think you 're supposed to tell . jack : ah , i guess i 'm just gon na have to stick around till that thing falls off . have i told you how beautiful you look tonight ? katie : mmm , twice , i think , but who 's counting ? jack : come on , let 's go . let 's go . the sooner they take your picture , the sooner we can get out of there . come on . katie : oh , i 'm just dreading it . dreading sharing the spotlight with your oh- so - shy brother . jack : yes , imagine what it was like growing up with him . katie : i 'm having a feeling that it was a lot harder on him growing up with someone who 's so smart and handsome and decent . that 's probably why he developed all that charm . jack : wow , i do n't whether to feel bad about that or good . katie : i 'm just saying there 's a reason i think he 's always working all the angles , you know ? he knows you 've got him beat . jack : uh - huh , katie peretti , you are stalling . you do n't want to go to this cocktail party for some reason . katie : what ? no , it 's just been so nice . just you and me , no phone calls , no drama . jack : yeah , i know . i know we have n't spent a lot of time together since carly 's been back . but all that 's gon na come to an end . now , that parker 's turning himself around , maybe the kids will spend more time with her . which leaves more time for you and me . katie : i 'm actually glad she 's back . [ jack laughs ] katie : no , i am , really . especially if it means more nights like this . carly : did it ever occur to you that i got dolled up for myself ? brad : well , hey , i love the mirror as much as the next handsome guy . carly : this is n't about vanity , it 's about my career . i 'm a designer , i have to look like one , like a good one . brad : well , i 'm all for seducing the customer . carly : yeah , i know . i 've caught your act . i have to show the world that i have style and class , and after this afternoon , i could certainly use a little fun . brad : yeah , you know what kills me is that guy let you go through your whole sales pitch before lowering the bill . he was a jerk . he was a jerk . carly : well , he did have a point . i have a criminal record . not many people are going to want to hire me . which is why i have to advertise the fact that i 'm back and that i can be trusted and i 'm worth the risk . brad : that sounds really good . when did you think of that , after you found out that jack was going to be there tonight with katie ? carly : now , wait a minute , you invited me to this party . i did n't invite myself . the question is why would you want me there ? brad : hey , i am just lookin ' out for your career . carly : right . brad : okay , you know , i felt really bad for you today after your business meeting fell apart . i mean , i know you thought it was going to be the first big assignment for your new company . and you know , but you know , then the guy told you to take a hike . that hurts . carly : so you want to stroke my wounded ego . brad : i 'll stroke whatever you got . okay , come on , carly , there 's no mystery here . you 're a beautiful woman . why would n't i want to show up someplace with you on my arm ? carly : oh , i 'm not on your arm , brad . i 'm three steps ahead of you . dallas : this diary . where 'd you say it was ? cleo : i keep it in my locker , but it 's mine and it 's very private . jade : oh , i 'm sure he wo n't tell anybody that you dot your is with hearts . cleo : that is so mean and so untrue . dallas : did you find anything ? cop # 1 : nothing . jade : what do you mean ? cop # 1 : nothing at the web address you gave me , at least not anymore . jade : well , check the server . maybe they took it down . dallas : thanks . jade : i wrote it , it was there , she saw it . do n't you have people that can break through firewalls and track web history ? dallas : yeah , we do , and i also have a sworn statement from will munson stating that you broke into his house . jade : i admitted that . dallas : witnesses that say you threatened his life . jade : i was trying to get him to listen to me . dallas : and it was your necklace at the scene of the crime . jade : i did n't run will 's car off the road . will , come on , you got to know i did n't do this to you . will ? dallas : jade , i 'm sorry , but i 'm gon na have to hold you for further questioning . the rest of you can do go for now . jade : i need to make a phone call . dallas : good idea . you 're gon na need a lawyer . jade : i do n't need a lawyer , i need somebody to believe me . dallas : good luck . noah : so , you can do an imitation of gwen ? cleo : but not a very good one . i came here because of gwen 's music , that 's all . and the fact that somebody would take something so beautiful and turn it into something ugly -- will : its okay , cleo . maddie : jade is kind of notorious around here . nobody believes her . cleo : the police believe her . will : no , they 're just trying to do their job . maddie : hey , we should get going . we have a lot to do before we leave tomorrow . noah : oh , that 's right . branson 's tomorrow . maddie : are you going to be able to go ? cleo : you have to go , will . gwen needs you there , to support her , to listen to her . will : i 'll be fine . cleo : i ca n't believe that jade would try to spoil this for you guys and blame me . i would never ruin gwen 's concert . i mean , me , of all people . will : nobody thinks that , cleo . gwen : hey , it 's okay . cleo : she 's the meanest girl i 've ever met . gwen : she 's up there . cleo : but you do n't believe her , do you , gwen ? gwen : no , of course not . noah : so , a long time ago , jade went after will ? maddie : yup , and she got him for about a minute . actually , she pretended that she was pregnant with will 's baby . noah : that 's hard to pull off . maddie : which is why she staged an accident and faked a miscarriage and blamed everything on gwen . so , setting cleo up to make it look like she forced will off the road , straight out of her playbook . noah : and she bought cleo to oakdale . see , that makes sense to me , especially if cleo can imitate gwen , although that 's really hard to believe . maddie : so , you think that jade brought cleo to oakdale but cleo had her own agenda ? noah : it sounds like you do n't think cleo could set up jade . maddie : well , come on , cleo 's a little bit scattered . i have a really hard time believing that she could pull any of this off . noah : if she 's so hopeless , how 'd she get to oakdale ? i know you do n't want to take jade 's side on this -- maddie : no , hey , not true . okay , maybe it is , a little bit , but we have some really bad blood . noah : does anybody like that girl ? maddie : her cousin , luke , which is probably best that he 's not going to branson , because he would n't leave if jade 's in jail . noah : they 're close ? maddie : very . noah : that 's interesting . i mean , if she 's such a big nightmare -- maddie : oh , no , she is , she is . but , you know , she 's family to luke . noah : hmm , yeah , well , i know how that goes . maddie : and , i mean , do n't get me wrong . luke is not stupid , it 's just that he 's really fair . if he hears both sides , he will listen and then he will support both sides . so , he 's just a great person and i just hope that he can see through jade 's act . noah : if it is an act . maddie : well , either way , i just do n't want luke to get hurt . he 's been through enough . cop # 1 : you 've got ten minutes . jade : oh , my god , luke . thank you so much for coming . i thought you were n't coming when i called . luke : of course , of course , what 's going on ? when dallas came by earlier , you said that this would amount to nothing . jade : nothing , i thought , because i did n't do anything wrong . luke : well , obviously somebody thinks you did something . jade , are you under arrest ? jade : no , not yet , but do you remember when i came by w.o.a.k . and i told you about the necklace that i lost ? luke : yeah . jade : would you be willing to swear , tell dallas , swear that i told you about the `` j `` necklace before he even ever came over ? luke : okay , yeah , yeah , fine . whatever . you told me about the necklace . but what 's going on ? jade : well , nothing , if dallas believes you . luke : believes me ? jade : yeah , somebody 's setting me up . i 'm being framed , but i can prove it . luke : wait , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . who 's setting you up ? jade : cleo babbitt . cleo : i would never steal her stupid necklace . i 'm the one that they steal from . they took my purse from me , remember , will ? will : i remember . cleo : and i would never do anything to hurt you . you know that , right ? gwen : cleo , why do n't we just get you inside ? you can take a hot bath . cleo : ow , my head ! will : what 's wrong ? cleo : oh , it 's like knives . will : you want some aspirin ? cleo : no , no , no , i 'm highly allergic to aspirin . i 'll just -- i 'll go get something else in town . gwen : you 're going to walk all the way back to town ? will : its okay , i 'll go . you stay here with cleo . cleo : no , you could get in another accident . she could do something to you . will : jade 's in jail . gwen : and you actually have a concussion , so you ca n't drive . will : i 'm fine . cleo : please , gwen , go with him . i absolutely could never live with myself if something happened to him . i 'll stay here and i 'll tidy up and i 'll take a bath . and you can bring me back some -- here , i 'll write it down . i used to take it when i was back home . it 's absolutely the only thing that would work for me . gwen : all right . will : okay , fine . so , come with me and we 'll get food on the way back . gwen : okay . are you sure you 're gon na be okay ? cleo : oh , yes , i 'll be fine . thank you . [ cleo gets her diary out of her purse and writes in it ] thank god i had j 's necklace to leave behind and prove it was her , not me , and that the website is gone . she 's going to ruin everything . if she 'd shown w and g what i 'd written about them , they 'd hate me . but now j 's in jail and nobody can hurt me as long as i do one last thing . good - bye . thank you for being my friend .

katie and i have been friends for a very long time and just recently , things changed . we 're an item ? katie : we 're an item . jack : there you go , we 're an item . officially , i am the man in her life and i could n't be happier about that . gwen : hey , are you sure you do n't want any of cleo 's pills ? will : ah , i 'm okay . gwen : i ca n't believe that the hospital did n't give you anything for pain . will : no , i 'm really fine . i 'm just hungry . we should eat . are you okay ? gwen : yeah , i 'm like fine . i 'm just really -- i 'm really glad that you did n't get seriously hurt . will : well , i 'm still going to branson , so you do n't have to worry about that . gwen : i do n't -- i do n't care about branson . i mean , you could have been killed . i honestly do n't know what i would do if anything ever happened to you . will : oh , gwen , i just bumped my head . gwen : the entire car could have flipped over . i mean , you were run off the road . will : yeah , well , jade 's being charged with vehicular whatever right now as we speak , probably . so , whatever , i 'm hungry . let 's just go , okay ? will : we ca n't stop lily from bailin ' her out ? gwen : that 's not -- that 's not what i was thinking . i was thinking about what jade said , about teaching cleo how to impersonate me . will : it was pretty weird that she knew about cleo 's little impersonations , but it 's got to be what she said , that she was watching us , right ? gwen : i mean , maybe , but when she said that she was gon na kill you -- i mean , did you take that literally ? will : i was n't really thinkin ' about it . what 's going on ? gwen : i do n't know . look , you know how i feel about jade , but there 's a giant difference between being angry and being violent . i know her necklace was here , but that means that she had to have driven you off the road , stopped , gotten out of the car and then left you there for dead . i mean , do you really think that she 's capable of that ? will : it 's a stretch . if she did n't do it , though , who did ? luke : wait , you advertised for a look - alike ? jade : yes , and for whatever reason , they ca n't find the website . luke : okay , you know what ? forget about the website . what the hell were you thinking ? jade : i was n't thinking , that 's the point . i was mad . i knew it was a mistake the minute cleo showed up . luke : so what ? so what , jade ? if someone pretty and trendy had come , you 'd like -- you 'd install her in will 's life and try to get rid of gwen ? jade : listen , i 'm not perfect , okay ? i 'm sorry . i get mad , i get hurt and i do stupid things , but i would n't hurt anybody . you have to know that . and i would n't be violent . i 'm not asking you to lie . i 'm just asking you to tell dallas the truth that i told you about the necklace . and maybe , he 'll spend a little bit more time looking for the website . luke : okay . well , i still do n't understand how that proves anything . jade : it proves that i brought cleo to town . it gives her a motive . she tried to set me up because i want to tell gwen and will the truth . luke : yeah , but , jade , you already told them the truth . jade : yeah , but they do n't believe me because my necklace was at the accident site ! luke : okay , look , do n't yell at me ! jade : luke , i 'm just really , really worried . if you do n't believe me , i do n't know what i 'm gon na do ! luke : okay , i did n't say -- i did n't say -- i never said that i did n't believe you . i just -- you need proof . jade : the diary -- the diary is proof . you got to talk to will and you got to tell him to find out where the hell it is , because she lays it all out in there . when he reads it , he 'll know that i did n't do this to him , that he 's in danger from cleo . cleo : i 'm so sorry . but you understand , right ? i mean , because if will and gwen ever found you , they 'd hate me . it would be just like we were when we were back in turlock . but i 'll never forget you . you 're the only one that i could ever talk to . the only one who ever loved me . but now will loves me . and i have to trust that . i do n't have to write about it anymore . i can live it ! katie : you okay ? jack : yeah , i 'm fine . photographer : if i could have katie and brad ? katie : be right back . jack : no problem . brad : yes , katie , come over here . excuse me , carly . i have to take some pictures -- jack : what are you doing here ? carly : brad needed an escort . jack : and you thought you 'd step in and do him a favor ? carly : yeah , well , it ca n't be bad for my career to have my picture on the style page . jack : so this is for your career ? carly : among other things . jack : please tell me you 're not dating my brother . carly : would that be a problem ? jack : for you . look what happened the last time you two hooked up . carly : we have n't hooked up . jack : yet . you know that 's his m.o . carly : his m.o . ? he 's not a criminal . jack : he 's done a lot of damage . carly : okay , i 'll consider myself warned , again . this is the second time that you 've warned me . you really have a problem with me seeing him , do n't you ? reporter : so , detective snyder would be your brother , brad ? brad : sad but true . reporter : so obviously you 've got a thing for the snyder men . brad : obviously . katie : well , brad and jack are brothers , but they 're really nothing alike . i mean , they 're both good looking and smart and funny , but jack is a grown - up and brad is -- brad . brad : nothing against my brother -- he makes the world a safer place for , you know , you and me and everybody else . but if you had to tune in every day and watch him , it would be like -- [ snores ] katie : okay , everyone , i think i need to get my co - star a cup a coffee . brad : how about a drink ? a drink would be nice . katie : what are you trying to prove ? brad : what , i mean , what ? jack could no more carry a show than i could wear your pumps . katie : i 'm talking about you walking in here with carly as your date . brad : oh , well , you know , i felt sorry for her . she 's all alone and she does n't have a job , and with her record , who 's gon na hire her ? you know , so i thought , you know , raise her profile , let her show up , do some networking . maybe it 'll help . katie : oh , yeah . she 's networking , all right . carly : i did n't mean to chase you off . jack : you did n't . drink ? carly : i just wanted to tell you i think it 's sweet how you worry about me . jack : old habits die hard . carly : nothing has to die . katie : you brought carly here for one reason , to stick it to jack . brad : yeah , he looks real stuck . ( alarm sounds ) brad : look at how upset he is , talking to his ex - wife . so upset he 's getting her a drink . reporter : if i could follow up about your ratings . katie : oh , you 'll want to talk to brad about that . he 's a whiz with numbers . brad : well , the only thing i know about the numbers , is that they 've gone way up since i came onboard . carly : we have the kids and a lot of memories . katie : carly , this is a surprise . carly : well , you know brad , did n't want to show up empty - handed . katie : right . jack : would you like something to drink ? katie : i would love something to drink . a water , please . jack : wonderful . excuse me . carly : that 's a pretty dress . katie : thank you . carly : and the fita 's an interesting choice . katie : oh , you know about fitas ? carly : and making a wish ? and waiting for the string to rot ? katie : jack bought it for me . carly : oh , my goodness . that 's so sweet . katie : yes , it was . but it was more than that , actually . see , this is n't a huge diamond pendant or anything . but i 've never really been one to go for that sort of thing . and the look on jack 's face when he gave it to me , when he tied this around my wrist ? that was something i will treasure for the rest of my life . noah : so you think will and gwen will press charges ? maddie : absolutely . and then it 's good - bye jade and hopefully , if we 're lucky , luke will get his sense of humor back . noah : luke 's funny ? maddie : when he 's not worried about something ? hilarious . noah : i 'll make a note . maddie : you 'll really like him when you get to know him . noah : well , i really liked his idea for the cell phone project . maddie : i know , me too , which is why i really want him to come down to branson with us , so we could work on it together . but i guess we 'll just have to do it when we get back . noah : we better . because before you know it , summer 's going to be over . and we 're all going to go off to college . maddie : right . oh , hey , i totally forgot to ask you , where are you going ? noah : northwestern . maddie : very impressive . noah : i got lucky , very lucky . i 've wanted to go there ever since i was 14 , and my next door neighbor got accepted there . but he was , you know , captain of the football team , you know , straight a 's , president of the class . and it took me awhile , but finally , i got in . maddie : oh , did you get wait - listed ? noah : no . i had the grades . i had the scores . i even had the killer essay . it was just ' um , just a question of finances . maddie : tell me about it . if i did n't have a scholarship , i would not be going to wesleyan . noah : yeah , i did n't qualify for a scholarship . maddie : oh , so -- student loan ? sorry , that 's totally not my business . i 'm sorry . noah : no , no , please do n't worry about it . it was -- it was just family stuff . but it all got worked out and i ca n't wait . maddie : good . so , is your neighbor still there ? noah : he 's actually taking a semester abroad in london . they have all these amazing exchange programs . and it 's a great school , you should come visit . maddie : i ca n't . i mean , because i 'm going to be in -- all the way in connecticut . noah : i was n't trying to hit on you , if that 's what you think . maddie : no , no , it 's not it . it has nothing to do with you . i like you , noah , i do , and i would love to come visit you . just not in chicago . gwen : do you feel dizzy ? will : yeah . do you have your key ? gwen : no . will : where 's cleo ? gwen : cleo ? carly : jack is a very special man . katie : yes , he is . carly : i 'm glad you have that fita to remind you . katie : oh , i do n't need any reminding . carly : i know what you mean . every time i see my children , i think of him . jack : the photographer over there wants another -- wants another picture . katie : thank you . all right , one more . then we 're out of here . carly : so , tell me what 's it like , dating a superstar ? jack : well , i guess you 're going to find out . you want to date brad , that 's your business . carly : i 'm not dating brad . jack : whatever . we 're divorced . you can date whoever you want . good night , carly . brad : okay , this party did not rock . so , let me guess , you 're tired and want to call it a night ? carly : i am tired , now that you mention it . brad : what a surprise . carly : but you know what ? i think we should do it again . katie : thank you so much . carly : very soon . noah : so , what 's wrong with chicago ? maddie : nothing , nothing , i used to live there . just a lot of bad memories . noah : so , we 'll meet in london . maddie : that sounds great . noah : do you want to get another half - calf mochaccino ? maddie : yes , please . i can not believe that you are a mochaccino lover . noah : um , what 's not to love ? maddie : ask casey , he 'll give you a complete list . noah : hey , would we 'd be overdoing it if we split a blondie ? maddie : i have been craving a blondie all afternoon , how did you know ? noah : you were fighting me for the sugar bowl , maybe ? maddie : you know , i am so happy that you 're here and that we 're working together . i 've been so lonely the past few weeks and we just -- we get along so well and you never pry , which i really appreciate . so , i 'm just -- i 'm really happy that you 're here . noah : i feel the same way . jade : i 'm so glad you 're here . you got to call luke . he was just here and he had to go . dallas : luke snyder ? your cousin ? jade : yes . he can confirm that i lost the necklace before tonight . dallas : because that 's what you told him to say ? jade : no , because that 's the truth . i told him yesterday afternoon that i was concerned because i could n't find the necklace anywhere . and he can confirm that it 's true . dallas : listen , what you told luke and when -- jade : dallas , i did n't do this . you have to call luke , you have to look for the website -- dallas : jade , even if we find the website , if even we found the ad -- even if you told luke that you lost your necklace , it does n't change the fact that you broke into gwen and will munson 's house . jade : i was trying to prove that cleo is after them and she is ! dallas : you have no proof . jade : the diary is proof . dallas : the diary that you do n't have and cleo does n't want to surrender . jade : of course she does n't want to surrender it , because it 's incriminating . you have to get a search warrant before she destroys it . dallas : no , what i have to do is read you your rights . jade taylor , you 're under arrest . anything you say , can and will be used against you . will : cleo ? cleo : sorry , i 'm so sorry , um , i fell -- i fell asleep . i know i should n't have . i was just -- i was tidying up and then i got really sleepy and my head started hurting because of that awful jade , and i just kind of sat down on the bed , and i fell asleep . but do n't worry , i smoothed it up . will : that 's not a problem . cleo : what 's that ? will : it 's your medicine . cleo : oh , right . thank you . will : we got some burgers , too , if you 're hungry . cleo : you guys really are too good to me , i do n't deserve it . gwen : it 's just a burger , cleo . cleo : i do n't think you really understand . where i come from , the girls are -- they 're so mean . that 's why i came here , to start over . i mean , that 's why i was -- oh , thank you -- that was why i was on my way to chicago . but you guys have both have been so good to me . and i just made everything worse . now , will is hurt and the car is damaged and -- jade is in jail and that 's all because of me . will : it 's a good thing i like your cookies . gwen : cleo , he 's kidding . cleo : oh . well , if that is a joke , in that case , i want to make a big batch for you to take to branson . gwen : i thought you had a headache ? cleo : oh , yeah , i do . i mean , i did . it got better when i took a nap . you know what ? i 'm going to go outside . i 'm going to go for a walk and look at the stars and get some fresh air . and oh , gwen , i washed that little top of yours , with the paisleys on it ? and you have to bring that because it looks -- it looks so cool on you . will : yeah , i like that top , too . gwen : i 'll take it . will : so , do you still think jade is telling the truth ? gwen : oh , no , no , you were right . cleo could never do anything like that . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns . `` craig : what can i do for you ? meg : take me home . and then get out of my life , forever . emily : last night you kissed me , dusty . why ? alison : i do n't want to tell you what i did after we split . what i turned into . but i 'm going to . brad : so is this new campaign to get jack back or to pay katie back ? carly : sometimes you kill two birds with one stone .	brad arrives to pick up carly to take her to the woak party , and she is dressed to the nines . jack buys katie a wish ' bracelet . jade pleads with will and gwen to believe her that cleo is out to get them , but cleo plays on their sympathy . carly claims her appearance is not about jack but for her career . dallas has enough evidence to hold jade especially after her website does n't show up where jade claims it would be , to prove she posted an ad to hire cleo . noah learns of jade 's history with everyone , but thinks that jade may be telling somewhat of the truth . jade tells luke that cleo is framing her . cleo feigns a migraine so she can be left alone where she tears up her journal . jack and katie make their relationship official , just as brad and carly arrive arm and arm . gwen is concerned about jade 's comments about cleo and thinks that it is a big leap for jade from anger to premeditated violence . luke is stunned when jade explains how she hired cleo . she begs him to believe her , back her up and find the journal . cleo talks to her journal as if it were a person and even goes as far as kissing it before she rips it up and tossing it in trash bags . she tries to throw them away , but will and gwen come home . katie is irritated that brad brought carly , as jack warns carly about how she should n't date brad . kate and carly toss subtle barbs . in the end though , jack tells carly she can date whomever she wants because they are divorced after all . carly tells brad they should do this again . noah and maddie bond some more . noah invites maddie to visit him at school in chicago , which leads her to admit to having bad memories there . dallas arrests jade . gwen thinks she was crazy to doubt cleo . cleo throws out the trash with the ripped up pieces of her journal , while luke secretly watches her .
larry : let 's sit down and have a drink . emily : no , thank you . you did n't answer my question . larry : i insist . i was about to order a glass of wine . i 'd love some company . red or white ? emily : i do n't want any wine . just tell me . did you ever know a woman named aurora hunter ? larry : no , not really . emily : really ? that 's so interesting . did n't the both of you work at the university of chicago hospital ? larry : i certainly knew her by reputation . she was a distinguished researcher . i 'm hardly in her league , though . emily : but your paths never crossed ? larry : emily , it was a long time ago . emily : right . around the same time alison was born , as a matter of fact . larry : what does alison have to do with this ? emily : and around the same time my fertilized eggs were transferred to the university of chicago hospital under your name . larry : emily , what is your point ? emily : were you aurora hunter 's lover ? did the two of you have a child together using my eggs ? larry : we ca n't have this discussion here . let 's go upstairs . [ scene_break ] hunter : you are so beautiful . [ scene_break ] riley : hey , you want to go to the hospital with me to visit margo ? casey : you 're going to call her margo in front of me ? riley : it 's her name . casey : no , she 's your mom . riley : yeah , we 're not advertising that right now . casey : you know what ? you can go without me . because i do n't know the new rules to this new game you 're playing . riley : so you 're just going to sit here playing video games all day ? casey : why do you give a damn what i do ? riley : how long are you going to hold this grudge , casey ? 'cause it 's not doing either one of us any good . casey : you know , it is more than a grudge . you 've ruined my life , adam . [ scene_break ] larry : look , emily , i keep telling you , i knew nothing about your eggs being transferred to chicago . i barely knew dr. hunter . and i certainly do n't know what happened to her after her fellowship ended . emily : why does that not ring true ? larry : listen , painful as this may be , i think you have to face the fact that your eggs , whatever happened to them , are gone . and given the fact that so many years have passed , it 's going to be impossible to figure this out . emily : well , i 'm not giving up . larry : okay . but maybe i could change your mind about having a drink ? i think we have some scotch here . emily : sure , why not ? larry : so , aurora hunter -- how did you hear about aurora hunter ? did you speak to her ? emily : no . oh , no . and now i 'll never get that chance . aurora hunter 's dead . larry : is that so ? emily : you seem kind of upset over someone you barely knew . what 's up with that ? [ scene_break ] alison : we ca n't do this . hunter : why not ? alison : it 's not right . hunter : it feels completely right to me . alison : hunter , you just lost your mother . you 're too upset . and i 'm upset about casey . hunter : forget about him . you deserve someone who can make you happy . i think i can do that . alison : no , we 're friends . good friends , and maybe one day , we could be more , but right now , it 's just not -- hunter : no one has ever understood me the way you understand me . when i felt so messed up because my mother was flipping out -- you got that . you always knew exactly what to say to make me feel better . alison : i 'm glad . but it 's just -- we 're both in a weird place right now , and i do n't want you to get hurt . hunter : you would n't hurt me , alison . i trust you . i want you to feel the same way . alison : i do . hunter : then make love to me . [ scene_break ] riley : you know , i 'm not adam anymore . i 'm riley now . so get used to it . casey : no . riley : you promised mom you 'd keep this secret . casey : yes , do n't remind me . riley : and i did n't ruin your life . you did a damn good job of that yourself . casey : oh , and your life is so together , is n't it ? riley : at least i 'm trying . casey : really ? by lying to everyone about who you are ? yes , good luck , man . riley : you know , casey , we 've both things stuff we 're not proud of . but the thing is , we have to move on from them . casey : yes . so i should get a new face , steal a dead guy 's identity , and then boom -- new life right there . you know , if i 'd done that , i would 've stayed out of the slammer , right ? riley : you know , casey , you 're not doing yourself any good by obsessing over the past . casey : then let 's forget the past , okay ? let 's concentrate right on the present . my girlfriend broke up with me . and do you want to know why ? because of you ! [ scene_break ] margo : oh , hoo - di - do , craig . you have outdone yourself now . craig : nothing but the best for my sis , sis . margo : i have to take a bullet for you to turn into a gentleman ? craig : i 've changed . have n't you noticed ? margo : you 've got that look in your eye . what do you want ? craig : well , actually , there is one thing . i have wonderful news . margo : am i going to think it 's wonderful ? craig : i hope so . carly and i are getting married . margo : oh , i -- yeah , i have to take a painkiller . craig : now , now , now . this is the real thing . margo : do n't , ow ! craig : sorry , sorry . this is the real thing . and it 's actually happening this time . and i 'll tell you , i could n't be happier . margo : wow . craig : you know , you were the first one that made me realize i was falling in love with her . margo : oh , so i 'm responsible ? craig : only in so far as it opened my eyes . i should n't have taken any prodding , but it turns out this true love thing takes some getting used to . margo : do i have to be your best man again ? craig : no , no , no , no , i 've got that covered . all i want from you , margo , is your best wishes for me and carly to have a wonderful future together . oh , and i need your house .

[ scene_break ] riley : you ca n't blame all your problems on me , casey . whatever happened with alison , that 's between the two of you ? do n't bring me into this . casey : i wish i did n't have to . but she 's ticked because of the way i treated you . she thinks there 's no reason for me to be suspicious . how funny is that ? riley : not very . casey : no . because i hit it right on the mark . you 've been lying to everyone . but i 'm going to keep it a secret , because i promised my mom i would n't say a word . so where does that leave me ? riley : i 'm sorry . casey : yes , you should be . and now because of you , she dumped me and she 's with another guy . riley : well , why do n't you do something about it instead sitting here feeling sorry for yourself ? casey : what am i supposed to do about it ? riley : go get her back . all right ? tell her you 're wrong about me . because you are . i 'm not the bad guy here . look , if you really want to be with alison , go find her . casey : i tried . i went there . but no , because you -- thanks to you , it was a disaster . riley : okay , if you want to blame me for everything , casey , go ahead . but it 's just an excuse . if you end up losing alison over this , it 's your own fault , not mine .

'cause you seem -- you know , you seem a little concerned about doing this on the spur of the moment . would you rather do this in a bigger place ? would you rather do it in a church ? i mean , if you 'd like to postpone this -- vienna : no . listen to me , henry . listen to me good . i 've never been more sure about anything in my entire life . i want to marry you now -- right now . paul : they 'd better get a move on before my mother shows up . emily : she wo n't . woman 's intuition . bob : okay , henry . there you go . chris : dad , what 's the , uh , status report ? bob : everything 's moving forward as planned . katie : excuse me . thank you , ladies , for filling in . vienna : i told them you had an errand to run . look , kim gave me something with blue , and emily gave me something old . emily : ooh . you need something borrowed . katie : oh , hey . why do n't you borrow my bracelet ? it matches what you 're wearing perfectly . vienna : are you sure ? katie : it would make me so happy for you to wear it . here . you just get it off .

[ scene_break ] luke : do you really think it 's the right thing ? 'cause your father was always trying to pressure you to join , and you were always like , `` that 's the last thing i want to do . `` noah : yeah , well , i changed my mind . luke : noah , this does n't make any sense . if you 're trying to make your father proud of you after the fact -- noah : maybe i 'm trying to make myself feel proud . luke : no . no , you 're not . this is about your father . and , noah , i 'm sorry , but he 's dead . you do n't have to keep proving yourself to him . noah : okay , it 's not like that . i can see more clearly now that growing up the way i did , around the military my whole life , i understand why it was an appealing life for my father . and i understand why it could be a good thing for me , too . i mean , it answers a lot of questions . i 'm feeling pretty lost and confused right now . and i would like to be in a place where there was , i do n't know , a clear set of rules . where i knew what was expected of me , where i felt secure . luke : why ca n't you feel that way with me ? [ scene_break ] carly : there 's no reason to be jealous about mike . he 's just a friend . holden : i know that . but the truth is , when you showed up with him at the house , it got to me . carly : holden , i could n't have feelings for mike . not when i have -- not when i have feelings for you . holden : you know , it feels so strange being in this house . almost like i should n't be here when jack 's not here . it 's jack 's house . carly : it 's not jack 's house . it 's mine . but it does feel weird . like our boundaries are all mixed up and we have to get them back before we get into trouble . maybe that 's why i brought mike to the cookout tonight , to try to find those boundaries . holden : yeah , i got the message . carly : but it did n't work , did it ? you came here anyway . [ cell phone rings ] holden : hello . lily : holden , it 's me . listen , can you pick up some eggs and some blueberry muffin mix ? i want to make us breakfast in bed . holden : yeah , sure , i can do that . lily : come home soon . holden : i will . lily : i love you , sweetheart . holden : me , too . [ scene_break ] noah : luke , i 'm sorry . okay , i know all this is hurting you right now , but this is n't just about us . i need to feel like i 'm doing something good with my life , and right now , that means serving my country . luke : i respect that you feel that way . i do . but i think there 's other ways to serve without cutting yourself off from the person you love most in the world . noah , we could do something together . we could build houses for families that need homes . we could work in a soup kitchen . we could feed the hungry . there 's other ways to help people besides joining the army . noah : i know . but this is the way i need to do it . luke : you 're not your father . and , honestly , i do n't think you 're cut out for the army . noah : you know , sergeant davis , my recruiter , thinks i 'd make a fine soldier . luke : oh , yeah ? did you tell officer davis that you 're gay ? noah : i did n't have to . there 's no reason to get into that . luke : so , you 're willing to serve , and you 're willing to possibly sacrifice your life , without being allowed to be who you honestly are ? noah : i know who i am . that 's enough . luke : noah , please , this is a really , really , really big decision . ca n't you give this more time ? think about it a little -- noah : it 's too late . i already signed the preliminary papers . i 'm heading out to the processing station in chicago tomorrow . luke : i ca n't believe this . we can finally be together , after everything we 've been through , after all the crap we were dealt , and you 're leaving me . noah : i 'm sorry , luke . i have to . just try and understand . [ scene_break ] holden : well , that was awkward . carly : lily 's waiting for you . you should get to the store . holden : i should n't have come here . this is n't the way it 's supposed to be . carly : somehow , it never is how it 's supposed to be . not in my life , anyway . holden : i 'm sorry . carly : me , too .

jack : oh , oh , oh , it 's magic . katie : thanks . jack : you know , carly has a pocket pocketful of tricks . she is not going to use them on me . you do wonders for my ego . katie : she walked in with brad . first thought that came to my mind is there 's nothing more than this woman loves than making a big scene in public . she schemed with john dixon so hal would n't know he was parker 's real father . jack : did you know the climax of that little episode was brought to you by brad snyder ? he 's the one who took parker from john dixon and put him in hal 's arms . katie : and it was all about parker 's inheritance , right ? jack : exactly . for carly and brad , money always ruled . katie : she gets what she wants . nobody sees it coming . jack : that 's why i have you . your eagle eyes will detect her schemes from miles away and you 'll radio me . no surprises . katie : you make it sound like a game . jack : every good game needs a good team . we 're team , right ?

brad : what are you so bent about ? carly : that kiss ? bragging about how you got to jack ? you 're playing this all wrong . brad : you 're just scared that if lily 's onto us it means jack and katie are too . but they 're not . carly : they will be if you keep up the displays . brad : chill . chill out . we so got to jack last night . carly : you do n't know that ! maybe lily 's right , this will never work . there 's no way this work . brad : yes , it will . okay ? we have history on our side , remember ? i 'm your secret weapon . carly : just let me call the shots from now on . okay ? i do n't want you doing something that could blow this whole thing . brad : what is it about you and katie ? you two always think i 'm going to mess things up . okay -- i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . you , katie , same breath - big mistake . carly : just follow my lead from now on , okay ? brad : no problem . i sure like a woman who takes control . vienna : oh , henry , you do n't look happy . henry : do n't think twice about it , would you like a technique ? you more than made up for it in worth work ethic . vienna : but i 've been working on you for hours and i 've not relaxed you . how will we ever start a business ? henry : we 'll just name this particular technique something appropriate like -- the hannibal . vienna : i hurt you . i know longer know my own strength . henry : but have you so many other assets . vienna : we ca n't open up a business yet . i need more practice . henry : yes , you do . just not on me . vienna : now i have lost your trust . henry : no , no , no , no , no . no , no , no , no . plenty of trust here . it is just there 's so many types of bodies out there . for me , let 's face it . you know mine so well . i fear i have nothing left to teach you . darling , i think i 'm going to go down -- alison : go away , please . aaron : not until you 've let me say what i need to say . come on , open the door , alison . alison : there is no alison . aaron : what are you talking about ? alison : the girl you knew before does n't exist anymore . aaron : then who 'd i fall in love with ? alison : somebody else . somebody innocent who never did porn flicks or got hooked on crystal meth . aaron : i do n't care about any of that . alison : yes you do . i saw the way you looked at me when i told you my pathetic story . aaron : you do n't know what i was thinking . alison . please . you have to let me in so we can talk about it . susan : i ordered you some tea . emily : i 'm really sorry -- susan : are you kidding me ? you have you nothing to be sorry about . emily : yes , i do . i reacted so badly . susan : you have every right to be hurt and angry . emily : you did n't raise me to do the things i was doing . susan : i do n't remember a lot of stuff but i know what i did to you . emily : mom , your -- susan : it left a lot of scars . if i had never been drunk all those years , then maybe you and alison would have learned to make better choices . emily : we are grown women now . susan : i know . but you always will be my daughters , god help you . emily : that 's why it is important we talk like this . susan : talk ? except i get so angry at you . i get so angry at myself and the world . i just do n't know what to do with it . it is textbook . emily : no . no , it is not . susan : yes , you shut me out . look at me . . i just do n't want to be angry at you and alison . you are wonderful . you are wonderful daughters . wonderful women . emily : you do n't know how much it means to me to hear you say that . i would totally understand if could n't look at me the same way . susan : oh , honey . when i look at you , all i see is a woman who has put her life together against insurmountable odds . emily : thank you . susan : it is just that sometimes there are things we ca n't change and we have to move on . let go of them . emily : funny you should say that . that 's exactly what i 'm trying to do now . susan : it 's easier when you have somebody to lean on , is n't it ? emily : yeah , i think it is . you are dying to know . go ahead , ask your question . susan : i was just wondering -- if you feel like you 're able to move on is the reason is dusty . aaron : you 're right , alison . it was a shock to find out that you 'd been doing drugs . and you had been with other guys . if you saw a look on my face , it is not something i thought about . it is something i felt . it is like -- getting kicked in the gut . you know what i mean ? alison : i know . aaron : to think so much strangers out there watching you have sex , watching you do what for me was private and personal , something that was ours . alison : i did n't think i would ever see you again . aaron : i know . i know . your body is yours . alison : i do n't do porn anymore . aaron : i know . it is something i felt at that one moment . do you understand that ? alison : i do n't expect you to get over it . i do n't expect any guy to get over it . aaron : i 'm not any other guy . do you honestly think because of what you told me i would turn my back and let you walk ? do n't you know me better than that ? alison : i do n't even know how you could look at me . i hate what i did . aaron : i hate knowing that you did it . but i do n't hate you . i can never hate you . i worry about you . you put your body through so many risks . alison : i was careful . when i came back home i got tested and everything . i 'm totally clean . aaron : and the meth ? you were the one making vitamin shakes and making me take care of myself when i was sick . to think you would poison your body . alison : it was hard after we split up . every day i felt like i was suffocating . i do n't blame you . it is not -- it is not your fault . it is just how i felt . first time i tried meth , all the pain went away and i could breathe again . it made all the bad things go away . aaron : and now ? alison : i told you . i ca n't say i 'm cured . all i can say is i take it one day at a time . i go to meetings . i 'm trying to stay clean . but every day i wake up and it is like -- it is so hard . i wonder when it will end . but i 'm still -- i 'm still staying straight . aaron : if anybody can do it , you can do . you are one of the strongest people i know , alison . alison : and one of the stupidest . aaron : well , it was smart you went to get help for emily and dusty . it says a lot . alison : why are you being so forgiving ? aaron : because i know you did n't do this to yourself . i did . vienna : yoo hoo . bell boy : how can i help you , ms. hyatt ? vienna : you can come up to my room and take off your clothes . brad : freeze ! you 're under arrest ! jack : what was so great about kindergarten that made you want to stay 6 forever ? brad : oooh . we 're a sourpuss , today , are n't we ? jack : actually , brother of mine , i 'm having a great day . brad : really ? and what makes it so great ? jack : beautiful summer day . i 've got the afternoon off and i went to a fun party last night . of course , you know that since you were there too . brad : it was all right . jack : speaking of which , what 's going on with you and carly ? brad : nothing . as far as i know . jack : you two just enjoying each other 's company , huh ? brad : that 's about it . jack : why ? brad : what do you mean , why ? for old time 's sake , i guess . jack : except that the old times were n't so great . in fact , they were pretty rotten , when you get right down to it . right ? brad : are you jealous , jack ? jack : of you and carly ? not a chance . but as for katie and me ? i think the green - eyed monster has you bad . katie : gee , carly , seems like you and i are running into each other all over town . carly : twice in one day . my stars must be perfectly aligned . katie : you and brad looked like you were having fun earlier . carly : you know something about brad . he 's changed . since i knew him last . katie : knew him ? you were married to him , were n't you ? carly : so ? katie : just reflecting on what a busy year that must 've been . married three times , to different men if i 'm not mistaken . but anyway , back to brad . i 'm curious . what do you think has changed ? carly : he 's just more capacious . serious . he 's deeper somehow . katie : deeper than what ? carly : that 's odd , he talks about you with nothing but respect . katie : well , i 'm glad you 're getting something out of your time with him . carly : you sound surprised . katie : i am . i spent every day with months working with brad . i have only noticed how short an attention span he has . carly : i guess that depends on who he 's paying attention to . katie : come on . you have to admit , it takes a lot to keep him focused . carly : not around me . katie : then i guess you 're making my point for me . carly : what point ? katie : why you should n't come to the station anymore . carly : pardon me ? katie : since we agreed the slightest distraction pulls brad 's attention , and as you say , he 's very attentive to you , maybe you should limit your surprise visits . the more efficient we are , the more cost - effective the show is . carly : well , i would n't want to put a frontrunner like oakdale now at risk . but does n't jack drop by to see you ? katie : he does . but i 'm a lot more focused than brad . jack does n't keep me from doing my work . carly : i 'm glad you and jack are doing so well . katie : i just bet you are . what 's next , carly , a double date ? carly : no . that 's a nice offer but no . i do n't think so . i 'm just glad that you and jack and brad and i can co - exist at functioning together , given that 's happened . katie : okay , enough . come off it . carly : whatever do you mean ? katie : do n't you think i know what 's going on here ? last night with brad ? this syrupy conversation right now ? they 're just the opening moves in one of your twisted little games . but if you think i 'm going to be dragged into it ? you 're out of your mind . you 're sadly mistaken . carly : games ? i 'm sure i do n't know what you are talking about . katie : like hell you do n't . testing jack by parading yourself around with brad . showing up everywhere we are . carly : you found me , katie . i 'm meeting lily . we 're working on setting up a design firm . it 's just one thing i 'm doing to get my life back together . katie : oh yeah ? what else is on your list ? using brad to get to jack ? carly : i enjoy brad 's company . katie : like i believe that . carly : what 's the matter , katie ? i thought you 'd be happy to see me out exploring new relationships instead of dwelling on the past . katie : i 'm never happy to see anybody get used . carly : i 'm not using brad . if i 'm using anybody , it 's jack as my role model . he 's moved on very nicely , has n't he ? katie : yes , he has . and so have i . carly : then we 've both found what we want . katie : i do n't know about that . the different is what jack and i have is real . what you and brad have is a joke . and jack and i are totally on to you . brad : okay . i admit there was a time i wanted to start something with katie . she 's really cute . if you go for that perky type . jack : and ? brad : i 'm not blowing it by hooking up with my co - star . jack : why chase the horse when i found greener pastures , if you what i mean ? brad : you mean carly . jack : you should know . you have been through those pastures . wink , wink . brad : what ? jack : nothing . it is sad to watch you try so hard to be convincing . alison : if the man that loves you calls you a whore , it is easy to say the hell with it . that 's what the people think -- good you get it ? aaron : i get it . i 'm a high school dropout . a screw - up biker kid . i know all about living down to people 's expectations . alison : i did n't think would understand . aaron : no . i understand something else , too . there are people out there , guys , who stalk girls like you . girls that need to be loved . alison : that 's me . and i definitely trusted the wrong guy . aaron : the same guy that got you into meth ? alison : it does n't matter . aaron : it does matter . he 's not going to bother you again or anybody , for that matter . alison : he 's not an issue anymore . aaron : what 's the matter ? alison : you and i have been through so much together . we went through so much without each other . did n't think it would be this hard to say good - bye . aaron : good - bye ? alison : come on . you know you have to go back to seattle . me , i have to stay here and try to stay out of trouble . aaron : is that what you think i want ? alison : you would never be able to forget what i did . even if you wanted to . aaron : i 'll take care of me . what i want is i want to stay here and stay with you . i want to be the guy that reminds you no matter how many mistakes you made , you are a great person . alison : why ? why would you want to do that ? aaron : i still love you . with all my heart . do you think you can still love me , too ? maybe it 's the wrong time to ask if you still love me . alison : aaron , i 'm sorry . i do n't know what to say . aaron : just tell me if anything i said made sense to you . if it did n't , i 'll do what you want and leave . alison : aaron , wait ! i want you here . with me . aaron : you do ? alison : if i did n't , i do n't think i ever would have told you the truth . i would have just kept pushing you away . aaron : i 'm so glad . we needed a fresh start . alison : i really want to start over , too . i 've been trying to . deep down ? i was hoping if i came clean and told you the truth we 'd have another chance . aaron : thank you . alison : for what ? aaron : trusting me enough to tell me everything . alison : i -- have n't told you everything . aaron : i know . i know . you do n't have to tell me you love me . we have another shot . and for right now , that 's enough . alison : i 'm a really different person than i was in seattle . aaron : me , too . i 'm different . and i 'm not going to make the same mistakes as before . let 's make a promise . alison : what ? aaron : let 's promise each other that there are n't going to be any more secrets between us . emily : dusty 's been great . just great . look what he did for ali in vegas . susan : and i 'm grateful for that . but i 'm asking about dusty and you . emily : he 's been more support than i deserve . susan : do n't say that . you deserve to have a great guy on your side . emily : it seems like he is , does n't it ? susan : i admire the way he came to me and apologized for judging you . that took a lot of strength . emily : know what the best part is ? he really means it . he knows all about my past and he still cares about me . susan : that calls for a celebration . emily : no , mom . no . susan : dusty . late breakfast . i owe that guy a doughnut . i 'm going to call aaron and alison . emily : put your phone away . stop ! okay . you are halfway to wedding bells . stop . it is too much . mother , it is too much . okay , breakfast . fine . i will do breakfast . do n't plan my future . i want to take things with dusty one day at a time . susan : i can do that . i just want you to be happy . emily : mom , i 'm happy . look at me . i 'm happier than i have been in a very long time . vienna : you like ? bellboy : mmmm , i like very much . vienna : excellent . your body has so much character . thanks for letting me practice on you . bellboy : glad i could help . vienna : this is called the feathering . bellboy : that 's the best i 've ever had . you are incredible . henry : what 's going on here ? vienna : henry ! henry : do n't henry me ! what are you doing with mr. universe ? vienna : we were just -- i mean , she was just -- henry : i know what you were doing . get out . out . out . out . out . and never again hold your hand out for a tip from me ! vienna : henry ! you interrupted my session . henry : i , i do n't know what to say . i 'm sorry . vienna : admit you 're jealous . henry : jealous ? i saw your hands all over that muscle - bound luggage - lugger did take me by surprise . vienna : but it was totally innocent . you told me i should practice on other bodies , did n't you ? henry : yes . old bodies with warts and wrinkles and important body parts lifted up . vienna : i need to perfect my technique . henry : you want our business to be perfect , do n't you ? you want it to be a success ? vienna : yes . katie : even though it 's been fun playing this coy little game with you , carly ? i need to be blunt . get real . carly : what are you talking about ? katie : stop wasting your time . carly : you 're giving me advice ? katie : yes , i am . you need to see things for what they are . jack 's moved on . so all the plotting and the scheming ? not going to work this time . lily : sorry i kept you waiting , carly . hello , katie . katie : lily . hello . i 'll leave you two to your meeting . lily : what was that all about ? carly : you were right . i only just got started and that little witch already has me nailed . now what am i going to do ? vienna : i suppose i could limit my practice to women only . henry : that would cut out half our potential clientele . no . no , no , no . the businessman in me wo n't allow me to give into my jealous nature . i 'll just have to be an adult about this . vienna : i 'm proud of you , henry . and you wo n't regret it . because before you kicked out my last client , he said he loved the massage . is n't that wonderful ? my petrissage technique is going to take this town by storm ! henry : i 'm -- delightful . vienna : in the meantime , may i show you something else i 've been working on ? henry : you did n't use this on the bellhop , did you ? vienna : oh no . this is for you and you alone . henry : mmmmm . i think this is a beginning of a long and productive partnership . emily : i totally have magic powers . dusty : i knew that already . emily : i was thinking about you and here you are . dusty : on my way to the bank . can your magic powers increase my balance ? emily : if you 're asking for a raise , that 's not my department . dusty : how 's your mom ? emily : my mom . i do n't know what you said to her , but she 's become your biggest fan . you sure have a way with the stewart women . dusty : i do n't know about that . emily : what you said early about leaving the past in the past ? dusty : yeah ? emily : i 've decided to put all my drama there , too . i 've been my own worst enemy for too long . dusty : you and half the world , em . emily : yeah . for the first time in a very long time i feel like absolutely anything is possible . is that foolish ? dusty : nope . optimism looks real good on you . emily : thanks . back to my mom . she invited us to brunch , a kind of family reunion slash peace offering . you interested ? dusty : the last time you and i met your mom for a meal we were pretending to be an item . emily : that was interesting . dusty : now we do n't have to pretend . aaron : is there anything else that you need to tell me ? alison : no . i think i said everything that needs to be said . aaron : good . alison : except for one thing . aaron : yeah ? alison : i still love you . aaron , wait . aaron : what 's the matter ? alison : i -- i need to take this slow . i 've made a lot of mistakes jumping into things , not thinking . i ca n't afford to make any more . are you okay with that ? aaron : okay ? just being close to you again , it 's more than i ever hoped for . brad : katie , katie , katie . i told you i had work to do for emma . katie : so ? brad : do n't you think things at woak can survive without me ? katie : somehow we 've managed to cope , brad . jack : hey , there . katie : hey . jack : i thought i heard a car pull up . katie : look what i scored ! five tickets for tonight 's fireworks show . great seats . courtesy of woak . jack : great . i know three kids who are dying to see the show . katie : great . i 'll come by later and we can all ride together . jack : katie , wait . you busy now ?

jack : i was thinking something wet and wild . let 's swim . katie : let me go get my swimsuit . jack : swimsuit is optional . katie : oh . lily : you were married a long time . you always have a connection . those were the moments . there are not enough to build a relationship . carly : it could be a start . lily : except for one thing . carly : one belong , petite , obnoxious thing . lily : do n't underestimate her relationship with jack . katie : are you saying that you think that jack might love her ?

[ cleo fantasizing ] gwen : i 'm counting on you , cleo . i have to rehearse , so can you keep will busy ? can you do that for me ? keep him happy ? because i might be gone all day . cleo : sure . absolutely , gwen . whatever -- [ door closing ] will : what was that ? cleo : oh , that was just gwen slamming the door . she had a rehearsal to go to . will : so she 's gone ? good . i 've been waiting for a chance to be alone . do you know how long i 've been waiting for this ? seems like forever . [ door opening ] cleo : hello . will : is n't this our room ? cleo : yes . but i thought , in order to save money , i 'd bunk up with you guys . will : are n't you bunking with noah and maddie ? cleo : do n't worry , i wo n't be any trouble . in fact , you wo n't even know that i 'm here . will : i 'm not worried about you being trouble , but gwen and i could use some privacy . cleo : but i 've already unpacked my suitcase and everything . besides , i 'm gwen 's assistant . she needs me . gwen : well , when i need you , i 'll find you , i promise . will : you know , noah and maddie are downstairs . so why do n't we take their room and then they can just move in with you . cleo : no . gwen : that 's a great idea . so grab a bed and some closet space . and we 'll be right down the hall . cleo : fine . will : you okay , cleo ? cleo : yeah . you guys want to be alone . i understand . gwen : okay . we 'll see you later . cleo : wait . gwen , this is for you . has your name on it and everything . they gave it to you 'cause you 're such a big star . gwen : oh , that 's really nice . you keep it . cleo : oh , i could never eat your fruit . will : noah and maddie could . it 's good fiber . gwen : you guys share it . we 'll see you later . cleo : big star -- noah : whoa . batter up . maddie : are you mad at us , cleo ? i mean , 'cause gwen said everything was fine -- that you were okay with sharing a room . lily : i 'll call you later to reschedule . okay , bye . okay , tell me this again . jade hired someone to impersonate gwen munson ? and that person ran will off the road ? luke : yeah , and jade feels really , really bad about what she 's done -- lily : when is she going to get over this obsession she has with will and gwen ? luke : she 's over it . she 's been over it since the moment that cleo got here . but cleo has other ideas . she was kind of , i do n't know , like really star- struck with gwen or something -- like , wanted to be just like her . and then she fell for will . and then she weaseled her way into their life so much that she got invited to live with them in their home . lily : jade got the girl to live with -- luke : no , no , no , no , no , no , no . this was all cleo . jade tried to get rid of cleo several times , but this girl gives new meaning to the word `` stubborn . `` so jade got suspicious . and she was right , because she got her hands on cleo 's diary and it has all this really creepy stuff in it . like stalker - type stuff . lily : well , who would answer an ad like that ? i mean , really . luke : well , that 's why jade went to will to warn him and tell him what she 'd done . she wanted him to watch his back around cleo . and that 's when cleo lost it . the minute it looked like will was starting to doubt her , she staged this accident and she made it look like jade was responsible . okay , i know it sounds crazy . lily : is will okay ? luke : yeah . i mean , he 's really shaken up , but he 'll be okay . lily : and jade was arrested ? luke : they found her necklace at the scene . wait , mom , mom -- i know , i know . but jade came to me a couple days ago and she told me that she 'd lost her necklace . and now she thinks that cleo actually took it and planted it at the scene to make jade look guilty . anyway , i 'd bail her out myself , but i do n't have the money . lily : what are the charges ? luke : the most serious is attempted manslaughter . lily : oh , my god . luke : i know it sounds awful . lily : it is awful . it 's awful . luke : you want to know what the worst part is ? it 's that cleo is still out there , and jade 's powerless . nobody believes her . lily : i do n't blame them . noah : woak 's on a pretty tight budget . but if you do n't want me to stay here , i can call a friend . cleo : oh no , do n't be silly . it was the plan from the beginning for all of us to bunk together . i was just trying to open up this basket here . i 'm such a klutz , they went flying everywhere . i 'll clean it up . noah : that 's why they have room service . besides , we got ta get going . gwen 's got rehearsal . cleo : good luck . she and will were talking about private time . maddie : well , cleo , they are married . cleo : i 'm just saying -- she 's not going to be very happy if you interrupt them . noah : well , they can have some private time after the concert . i just got a text from the theatre . they 're ready for us now . cleo : really ? well then , i guess its back to work , then . luke : but why would jade go to will , warn him , and then try to run him off the road ? that does n't make any sense . lily : and we may never understand why . you know , the one thing i 've learned in the past few months is that sometimes people do n't know what drives them , or why . luke : what if she 's innocent ? you know what it 's like to have people not trust you because of the mistakes you 've made . dad forgave you . even grandmother forgave you . lily : i know , and i 'm very grateful . luke : look , and jade knows what she did was messed up . and that 's why she went to will . lily : how did he react ? luke : he called the cops . because she had to break into his house . but it was only because -- it was only because she wanted to get to cleo 's diary . lily : you ever think that maybe this car accident was retaliation on jade 's part because of will turning her in ? luke : no . jade lies -- you know that , i know that . but she 's not violent . she would never hurt anyone -- not will especially . lily : i do n't know , this all sounds very bizarre . luke : look , i did n't believe it either , myself . but if you think jade 's conniving , you 've never met cleo . lily : no . now they 've turned on each other . we should just leave it at that . maybe jade should suffer the consequences . luke : but mom , all she did was get a ticket for this girl to come to town and then just tell her to go straight home . the rest was up to cleo . lily : yes , according to jade . we have given her so many chances -- luke : what if it were me ? if i had screwed up ? you know aunt rose would give me another chance . lily : you 're not jade . luke : please . if you do n't want to do it for jade , do it for me . do it for aunt rose . noah : we 're here at the amazing andy williams moon river theatre , and gwen munson is in the house ! gwen : hey , everybody ! i 'm so thrilled to be here . and to be able to perform here and for such a great cause . noah : you want to remind the folks why we 're here ? gwen : yes . we 're here to raise money for the families of police officers who have given their lives in the line of duty . actually , my father - in - law , lieutenant harold munson , was killed defending a robbery victim . so , this is a very special moment for me , and i 'm very honored to be a part of it . noah : and that 's a wrap . great . maddie : oh , are you going to get some footage with andy williams ? gwen : i 'm sure andy williams has better things to do with his time than watch me rehearse . noah : which is in about ten minutes . so , you better head inside to the dressing rooms . gwen : okay . is my stuff even here yet ? will : yeah . i told cleo go back to the inn and get it . gwen : so we 're going to be alone for a little bit ? will : yeah , in the dressing room , for a little alone time . gwen : hmm ! will : hmm . gwen : hmm . maddie : oh , you should get some back stage footage . gabe : noah ?

and see what you want to wear tonight ? gwen : yeah , but i 'm going to warm up my voice first . it feels a little tight . cleo : oh , okay . we 'll get out of your way then . come on , will , let 's go see if we can find those little lozenges she likes . will : you go . i 'm going to stay here with gwen . cleo : oh . all right . will : let 's see what we can do about warming you up .

[ cell phone ringing ] will : it 's a wedding chapel . cleo : is n't it romantic ? will : why do n't we try getting on the roller coaster again before the line builds up ? cleo : but this place is so special . i bet you all kinds of famous people get married here . oh , no , no , no ! you ca n't answer it ! will : why not ? cleo : it 's a church . you ca n't answer a phone in a church . it 's a sin . will : well , it 's not gwen . i do n't know who it is , so i 'll them again later . cleo : it 's working ! this place is perfect . luke : they 're not answering . neither one of them . okay , okay , you 're right . looks like we 're going to have to go to branson . cleo : if he turns around , it means he loves me . will : hey , cleo , come here . take a look at this . cleo : it 's true . he loves me . will : you okay ? cleo : yeah , i 'm perfect . will : what 's up ? cleo : there 's something that i have to tell you . something so important . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns `` -- alison : you 've gotten all you 're going to get from me ! lance : you know what ? you do n't get to make that call ! i do ! and we are far from finished ! will : get out of whatever fantasy world you 're living in ! i love my wife ! she 's everything to me , and you 're nothing !	will , gwen , noah , and cleo arrive in branson and cleo thinks will loves her just because he takes her to silver dollar city for the day to give gwen time to work and do interviews . cleo gets ready to tell will something which is very important . noah 's dad comes to visit him to have a talk . maddie misses casey and tries to call him at the prison . lily gets jade out on bail and she and luke find the pieces of cleo 's diary pages and begin taping the pages back together . luke agrees to go to branson with jade to warn will and gwen about cleo . he admits to jade that it will be awkward because he is falling for noah , another straight guy .

[ chuckles ] not the bride . she 's pregnant . stop grinning at me , you -- you clown , you . it 's not very fun , you know . it 's not very funny being drugged and locked up in here in this -- in this godforsaken place while that tart has snagged henry with the oldest and tackiest and tawdriest trick in the book . oh , you were here . you were here when i arrived . when i got here , you saw who brought me here . now , who was it who would want me put away ? i know the list must be very , very long , but the people who would actually do it , i bet the list is shorter . clues , clues . oh . definitely a woman . [ scene_break ] emily : congratulations for not hyperventilating during your vows . henry : oh , oh , yeah . i came prepared just in case . [ emily chuckles ] henry : please stop looking at the door . i was sure that barbara would show up and stop the wedding . paul : yeah . i was surprised , too . i wonder what happened to her ? emily : oh , for god 's sake , why are we still discussing her ? we should just be happy she did n't show up . and let 's just hope she 's gone . paul : gone where ? emily : can we get some champagne , really , because this was the most nerve- racking wedding i think i 've ever been to , and that includes ours . henry : she was held at gunpoint at her sister 's wedding . how could today be any worse ? paul : i do n't know . i was n't really listening . welcome to married life . pretty much all you do is say `` yes , dear . `` chris : so , you gon na talk to vienna about not telling henry the truth ? katie : you bet i am .

[ sighs ] so , chuckles -- may i call you chuckles ? which one of those bitches do you think left me here with you to rot ? there was a time [ sighs ] i mean , there 's no shortage of women that would be happy if i had never been born . i mean , the question is , what is different about today ? and i know the answer . i have information that would blow henry 's shotgun wedding out of the water . which means that there 's only one person who could have done this to me -- vienna . [ scene_break ] vienna : thank you for being here . katie : i would n't miss it . vienna : is n't it wonderful ? henry and i -- we are so happy . here . you should hug him . yeah , i 'm sure you guys have a lot to talk about . katie : uh , henry and i can chat later . i 'd like a private moment with the bride . [ scene_break ] barbara : of course vienna did this . i called her right before i was dragged out of the lakeview against my will ! and i think that under the circumstances , i was very generous . i gave her a choice between hightailing it out of town or being humiliated at the altar , unmasked and un - stomached for the lying conniver that she is , and she fought back . [ dreaming ] this charade has gone far enough . it may break his heart , but henry has to know that his baby is nothing but a ball of foam rubber stuffed inside a wedding dress bought straight off the rack . [ muffled shout ] vienna : you will never come between me and my henry ever . barbara : too obvious ? [ scene_break ] katie : vienna , i really need to talk to you . henry : go ! i 'll be fine . vienna : katie , i really do n't feel comfortable leaving . katie : we 'll just be right over there . vienna : katie , please , i -- whatever you have to say can wait . katie : no , it ca n't . but if you want me to say it in front of everyone , i do n't mind ? vienna : okay , fine , fine . fine . katie : excuse us . henry : sure . katie : what are you doing ? vienna : i 'm trying to enjoy my wedding . katie : that is not what i 'm talking about , and you know it . vienna : katie , please . katie : i ca n't believe you . how could you not tell henry ? henry : tell henry what ? vienna : henry , darling , i did n't want you to know about earlier today . before the ceremony , i suddenly got a terrible case of cold feet . katie : vienna , do n't do this . vienna : no , katie , it 's okay . i know you 're a friend . you 're my best friend . but henry -- he 's my husband , and i -- i do n't want there to be any secrets between us . katie : that sounds like a very good plan . henry : well , it 's -- so , everybody gets cold feet . it does n't matter . we 're married now . vienna : i do n't know why i got so frightened . katie : maybe there was an underlying reason . vienna : well , you know that there was . it 's about the baby . katie : go on . vienna : i was worried that you married me just because i got pregnant and that tomorrow , when you wake up , you would feel trapped and resent me . henry : no , oh -- vienna , no . vienna : so , early this morning , i went to church to pray to santa lucia for her guidance . katie : vienna -- vienna : no , katie , it 's okay . i want you to hear this . [ sighs ] santa lucia -- she spoke to me , and she said that no matter how we got here and whatever mistakes we 've made on the way , once we get married , it 'll erase all that . she said that we owe it to each other and our child to get married and make it work for the rest of our life , no matter what happens . and that 's what god wants . amen . kim : emily , that 's a great dress , and it looks great on you . emily : thank you . thank you . do you like it more than the one barbara destroyed ? paul : emily -- emily : i liked the dress . kim : excuse me . i 'm really worried about barbara . i 'm gon na see if i can get a hold of her . emily : i 'm sorry . you 're -- you 're worried because she did n't crash this wedding ? kim : emily , she 's my niece . the last time i saw her , she was devastated . emily : yeah , i know . i was there , remember ? kim : oh , i remember that . you definitely were there . you were doing everything in your power to provoke her . now , to answer your question , yes , i am worried about her . i 'm gon na try to call her and see if she needs our help . emily : oh , well , you do that . i think we should all just be grateful she 's not here . [ scene_break ] barbara : phew ! i 'm beginning to understand what my children liked about these besides the neon fingerprints they would leave everywhere on everything that they touched . not my idea of paradise , but what kind of paradise is this ? come to think of it , how would vienna even know about a place like this ? some top- secret website where they tell you how to dispose of the competition and lead them to die of diabetic shock ? no , no . the swedish meatball would never get her hands so dirty . hmm - mm . her faithful sidekick , on the other hand -- [ dreaming ] oh , my poor henry . we may never be together , but i 'll be damned if i let that scandinavian slut and her foam fetus take advantage of you one more minute !

luke : no , but we have to move quickly . if cleo could run will 's car off the road , she 's capable of anything . will : cleo , you coming ? gwen : hey , does this look okay ? tim : wow , you look great . gwen : great . i was n't sure . this whole press thing is really new to me . tim : sorry you did n't know about the reception . thanks for stepping up . gwen : oh , of course . it 's fine . i mean , it 's why i 'm here . tim : i knew you really have n't had a lot time to yourself -- gwen : well , i was hoping that i got some more time when the rehearsal went so smoothly . tim : oh , man , you were amazing . you 've got your own sound and you connect with your audience . get ready , gwen , 'cause people are going to take notice . you 're going to have a big career , if you want it . gwen : well , i 'm gon na put that on hold for a while . you know , just while i finish school . tim : do n't be mad if i try and change your mind about that -- because the way i see it , you have everything it takes to be a star . dusty : i 'm glad you and alison are back together . aaron : yeah , i guess being stubborn worked in my favor for once . dusty : seems that way . aaron : ali told me how you and emily helped her in vegas . sounds like she was in a lot of trouble . i owe you . dusty : no . just be good to her . aaron : oh , i will . we 're getting a chance to start over -- with everything out in the open -- i 'm not messing that up . susan : look at those handsome guys at our table . looks like things are finally picking up for you two . alison : i think it 's a little too soon to say that . emily : yeah , no one 's walking down the aisle anytime soon . susan : do n't be so negative . alison : look who 's talking . susan : oh , i know i 've been a little rough on you two lately . alison : mom , you were humiliated by what we did . and i do n't blame you . susan : i do n't want to talk about that . that 's in the past , and that 's where it 's going to stay . i 'm very proud of the way we all came through it . together . emily : me , too . susan : and i like very much the way you two took care of each other . that tells me i did something right . well , you go on ahead . alison , i 'll meet you at the car with aaron . i 've got to go check on a patient . emily : okay , mom . see you later . bye . alison : she 's right . you did n't just look out for me . you pulled me back from the edge , and i never really thanked you for that . emily : honey , you do n't have to thank me . you 're here . that 's all i need . alison : i know , but my life would be very different right now if you had n't tracked me down , stood up to lance , put up with my attitude -- emily : ali , you 're my sister . there is n't anything i would n't do for you . alison : yeah , i think i put that to the test . i hope you know how much you mean to me . emily : just be happy , ali . leave the mistakes behind . alison : yeah , it 's not that easy when you 've made as many as i have . but i hope you know i would never deliberately hurt you . emily : of course i know that . what is this , lunch or group therapy ? alison : i think lunch is officially over . aaron : are you ready to run ? alison : all set . mom said she 'd catch with us outside . emily : i 'll see you guys later . good - bye . good - bye . aaron : bye . this was actually fun . alison : try not to sound so surprised . aaron : i 'm just being honest . we agreed , yeah ? okay . emily : okay , totally honest -- how was it for you ? on a scale of one to ten , ten being excruciating . dusty : it was good . i like your family . i feel like we have chaperones every time we 're on a date . emily : you do ? wait a minute . are we -- are we dating ? noah : dad , i 'm supposed to register in a few weeks . you ca n't back out now . it 's not fair . colonel mayer : do n't raise your voice to me . and i can do whatever hell i damn well please . noah : but we went over the numbers . i do n't understand . did n't you put money aside for this ? colonel mayer : it 's not the money . noah : then what is it ? everything i did in high school was about getting into northwestern . i 'm finally going to study filmmaking and directing . it 's all i want . colonel mayer : what you want is to play out your fantasies while i invest what amounts to the price of a house into a dead end . that 's not going to happen . it 's time for you to grow up and get serious . noah : my internship at woak is serious . colonel mayer : it 's a waste of time . they get free labor , you get a form letter and a pat on the back . noah : just because it 's not for you , does n't make it useless . colonel mayer : there 's work to be done in this country , noah . hard work . and you come from a long line of men who have been giving it for years . noah : i work hard . colonel mayer : you do n't know what that means . but you will . this fall , instead of enrolling in college , you 'll enlist . noah : so that 's it ? do n't i get any say in this ? colonel mayer : i am not going to stand back and let you drift into a world that has no substance . you are going to take your place in a long , proud tradition -- like i did , like my father did before me , and his father before that . noah : look dad , i do n't want a career in the military . colonel mayer : you can decide that after you 've served and the army 's made a man out of you -- something i 've obviously failed to do . noah : what about northwestern ? what about what i want ? colonel mayer : we 'll talk about that and your tuition fund after you 've served . not before . are we clear ? noah : yes , sir . perfectly clear . maddie : casey would n't block my calls . there has to be a mistake . operator : i 've doubled checked , you 're not on his list . maddie : well , could you please check again ? or let me talk to him in person . please , we need to clear this up . operator : i 'm sorry , there 's nothing more i can do . maddie : casey , why are you doing this ? gwen : honestly , i do n't really think the whole star thing is for me . tim : you ca n't know that . gwen : actually , i do . i had a little taste of it . but thanks for the compliment . maybe it 'll ward off stage fright right before i go on . will : if you do get shaky , all you have to do is look at me . gwen : hey , you 're here . just promise me you 'll sit in the front row . will : oh , i 'm going to be there . is this what you 're wearing to the concert ? gwen : no , there 's this thing at the titanic museum ahead of time . tim actually just told me that i have to make an appearance there . will : so you 're going to be busy right up until show time ? gwen : want to come with me ? will : no . you 're gon na be tied up , and you do n't want to have to worry about if i have somebody to talk to or not . gwen : you can look around the museum . tim : yeah . there 's this tank where you can stick your hand in the water and feel the exact temperature of the atlantic when the ship went down . cleo : wow ! that sounds so cool . i mean freezing , actually -- you know what i mean . silly . gwen : come on . go with me . we can go to tony z 's afterward . you can tell me about your day . will : why do n't we save that for after the concert ? i 'll stay busy somehow . i 'll figure something out . cleo : i make sure will never gets bored . gwen : good . i 'm glad you guys are keeping each other busy . what 's with the elf statue ? cleo : oh , it 's not a statue -- it 's a garden gnome . it brings good luck . gwen : oh . i thought they were supposed to scare deer away . cleo : well , that 's good luck for the plants . will got it for me . and it was n't even my birthday or anything . gwen : i guess he likes you . cleo : i know . tim : we should take off . will : knock them dead . and i 'll see you before you go onstage . gwen : i 'll be waiting . will : seeing as how we 're back here , i 'm going to go up to the room . cleo : oh , wait . no , not yet . i have to show you something . will : what ? cleo : it 's a surprise . please . it wo n't take very long , i promise . dusty : it 's been at least a decade since someone asked me if we were dating . emily : i thought it was a reasonable question . dusty : do you have to label it ? emily : well , we 've moved beyond friendship , right ? i 'm just curious how far past friendship . dusty : i think we have real potential . emily : even though you know everything about me ? dusty : i 'm sure i do n't , but yeah . emily : i like you too , dusty . but if i 'm not careful , i 'm going to do what i always do . dusty : what 's that ? emily : wreck this before it ever gets off the ground . susan : i 'm in a time warp . alison : seeing us together again ? susan : catching you in here smooching in my living room while i 'm off to work . it 's like you 're in high school again . aaron : ahh , you kick me out , i 'll just sneak back in once you 're gone . susan : do n't i know it ? just stay out of trouble . alison : we 'll be fine , mom . susan : sure you will . see you later , ali . bye , baby . alison : bye . aaron : your mother just gave me an idea . alison : i 'm not putting on that cheerleader outfit , if that 's what you 're thinking . aaron : no , let 's do what we used to do . rent a couple of movies , make some popcorn , curl up on the couch -- alison : you can watch me fall asleep . aaron : love to . maybe get a couple of movies worth watching . and some worth completely ignoring . [ alison laughs ] alison : your keys are by there . aaron : see you in a little . alison : call me if you get stumped . you 're always forgetting your phone . lance : he 's gone . did you miss me ? alison : get out , lance ! lance : and we 're off to bad start already . noah : what 's up with you ? maddie : nothing . noah : come on , maddie . something happened . maddie : i -- i really do n't feel like talking about it . noah : is it casey ? is he okay ? maddie : i do n't know . he would n't get on the phone when i called . noah : he would n't even talk to you ? maddie : nope . he told the operator or whoever not to accept my calls , i guess . i 'm -- i 'm cut off . i guess he decided to break up with me . noah : you obviously did n't see this coming . maddie : no , not for a minute . i mean , i know that in his letter he told me -- he told me not to wait for him anymore , but i thought that if he missed me as much as i miss him and i called , that he would at least get on the phone . noah : maybe he just felt too weird talking to you from prison . maddie : no , it 's not that . he wants to be noble and set me free whether it 's what i want or not . noah : that 's not fair . maddie : and it 's like , i do n't even get a say . why does he get to decide what 's best for me ? noah : he does n't . look , maddie , i 've never met the guy , but he sounds like someone who always puts himself first , okay ? what he wants . what he needs . and even if you play by his rules , you get shot down . you deserve somebody so much better than that ! maddie : are you okay ? noah : you know , i did n't have such a good day either . look , we should just both get out of here . maddie : do n't you want to get footage from the reception at the museum ? noah : no . no , it 's not even on the list and we both need to shake these moods . i mean , let 's go have some fun . you 're not going to make me do this by myself , are you ? jade : no matter how i try to say this to gwen , this news about cleo 's latest stunt is going to be a really hard sell . luke : well , maybe not . you brought me to back you up . jade : yeah , maybe we should have brought more of that confetti that was cleo 's diary . luke : no , will and gwen do not need to see anymore . just a few quotes and they 'll know that cleo is really crazy . jade : no , cleo 's got such a good way of making herself looking really innocent and making me take the fall . oh my god , luke look . luke : oh , this is great . this is great . now we know where gwen 's playing . the andy williams moon river theater . now all we have to do is hope that 's not too far away . here , take this . i 'm going to go get us directions . jade : cleo , you are so busted . will : so this is your surprise ? more trees ? cleo : i thought that you and gwen moved into the cottage so you could appreciate nature more . will : we did . cleo : so , take a minute to look at the beauty that 's right in front of you . you might see something that surprises you . will : it 's very peaceful out here . i did n't know i came out here for a field trip , though , so we should head back to the inn . cleo : just stay with me . just a little bit longer . i do n't think i should be out here alone . please ? i went on the roller coaster with you . will : you did . all right . just for a few minutes though . cleo : okay . will ? will : yeah ? cleo : i was thinking that i should probably name this guy . do you want to help ? will : no , that should be your department . cleo : how about bashful ? [ will laughing ] will : you really like him do n't you ? cleo : oh , yes . he 's the very best present i 've ever gotten . will : what about the cd that gwen gave you ? cleo : no , this is better because it 's from you . will : oh , we should head back , really . cleo : no , not until i do this . [ cleo kisses will ] will : cleo ! what are you doing ? cleo : its okay , i 'm just showing you how i feel . will : cleo , it 's not okay ! cleo : no , it really is okay because i love you . alison : lance , this is my mother 's house . if you do n't leave , i 'm calling the cops . are n't you supposed to be in jail ? lance : got ta love our justice system , huh ? just chill out , all right ? i just wanted to see what you thought was better than a huge career . a life of luxury , huh ? so , this is it ? this is what you want , ali ? you want to just hide in your mommy 's house and pretend you 're a little kid ? alison : i 'm doing what 's best for me . lance : whatever . you were hauled back here . you did n't choose this . alison : this is what i want , now . lance : you used to want so much more . excitement , glamour , real opportunities , you know ? alison : what opportunities ? to get hooked on drugs ? lance : you were my golden girl . i did everything for you . i gave you a name . i gave you an opportunity to make more money than you ever imagined . and you want to forget me . you know what , ali ? sometimes i want to forget you , too . you see , it 's just not that easy for me . come here . why do n't you take a good look at what you did to me ? alison : i wanted you to get away from me . you would n't leave me alone ! lance : so , the guy who put the stitches in said this is for keeps . so that i 'll always have this little reminder of you right here , is n't that nice ? alison : i 'm sorry . lance : why ? because you cut me ? because you left me ? you know , i ca n't get even get girls in vegas to work for me because they think i 'm a freak . alison : i did n't mean to hurt you , lance . you know that . lance : yeah , i do know that . all right , so , i 'll forgive you if you come back to vegas and work for me , all right ? alison : i 'm not doing that . lance : i need you to come back so the other girls will work for me and know i 'm not such a bad guy . you owe me that . alison : i do n't owe you anything . and you ca n't push me around anymore . lance : all right , is this about the boyfriend ? is he your boyfriend ? yeah , he must be because he 's invited to all of the family meals with mom and sis . do n't worry he 's -- he 's not going to be any trouble for us . jade : where the hell are they ? we 're in the right place are n't we ? luke : yeah , but she should be back soon . the benefit starts in about an hour . jade : maybe she went back to the hotel . luke : why ? jade : i do n't know ? maybe she left something . can you go check on that ? luke : okay . are you going to stay here ? jade : yeah , i might as well . they got to be back sooner or later with or without cleo . will : cleo , you do n't love me . cleo : yes , i do . i cross my heart . and we had the best time today , did n't we ? i mean you smiled and laughed the entire day . you never smile when you 're with gwen . will : cleo , i do n't know what you think you see but i love my wife . cleo : she does n't make you happy , will . not the way that i do . and she knows that . she even said that she wanted us to spend more time together . will : i think she was trying to be nice , cleo , she did n't realize you were going to jump me in the woods . cleo : well , when a relationship is n't working , it 's better if you just walk away , especially if somebody better comes along . will : do you mean you ? cleo : i 've stopped fighting it . will : well , do n't . cleo , i 'm never going to return any feelings you have for me . i do n't know what you were thinking . you 're going to try and bring me out here to make some kind of confession and i , what ? cleo : i thought you might be too surprised to speak at first and you know what ? that 's okay . because i know how you feel in the inside . i know that you love me too . will : cleo , you 're wrong -- i do n't ! cleo : well , maybe just not yet . will : no , not ever ! cleo : will , you have to understand that some things are just meant to be . and when gwen asked me to come to branson , i knew that it was going to happen . it was my destiny . and it was my chance to be with you , forever . will : really ? cleo : and you know what ? i was right . it 's so much better than pistachio ice cream and sprinkles all mixed together . will : oh my god , that 's what jade said you wrote in your diary . cleo : you have to understand will , gwen wants her career . all i want is you . will : cleo , i do n't care what you want . cleo : i 'll be good for you , will . gwen always lets jade get in the middle of things and i 've already proven to you that i 'd never , ever , let that happen . will : you have ? cleo : well , she 's gone is n't she ? i made sure she went to jail . and she 's never , ever , ever going to come back . she does n't bother you anymore , does she ? will : you did it . you drove me off the road ! you could have killed me ! cleo : oh no , i 'd never let that happen . i 'm a smashing driver . will : you 're a lunatic , cleo ! cleo : i stayed to make sure that you were okay . will : i was unconscious ! cleo : just for a little bit . everything worked out fine . will : no , it did n't . but it will now . we 're going to the cops and you are going to tell them everything you just told me -- and you 're going to be the one locked up , for good ! dusty : you 're not the only one who 's nervous about this , you know , i mean -- us . emily : you ? no way . dusty : yeah . anyone in on the whites of my eyes , i get nervous . emily : well , then i must be in the danger zone . dusty : you are . and i do n't like talking about feelings . emily : really ? i figured that about you . do n't worry . you 're secret 's safe with me . wait a minute -- i thought you were the guy who said he did n't have any secrets ? dusty : nobody 's perfect . emily : no , just you are the closest thing i know to perfect . dusty : i was trying to be perfect before my wife died . i thought if i did everything right , we 'd be set . emily : yeah , and you 've been punishing yourself ever since . it 's not what jen would 've wanted . dusty : i 've spent a lot of time figuring that out . emily : it takes time to heal . you ca n't blame yourself for that , you know ? dusty : i blame myself for letting my son disappear from my life . trusting anyone is major for me . but i 'll try . emily : even with a -- an ex - hooker ? dusty : someone who 's worth it . whatever it takes . aaron : hey , what are you doing here . holden : hey . i had to drop faith off for a dance class . you shopping for videos ? aaron : rentals . for ali and me . holden : you 're back together ? just like that ? aaron : well , we 're working on it . you got a problem with that ? holden : no , no ! after everything you told me -- i just think it 's a little soon to be jumping back into a relationship . aaron : this feels like i 'm in the right place with the right person . holden : with the same person who lied to you more than once . aaron : well , she 's not lying now . holden : how do you know ? how can you be sure ? aaron : i just know . okay ? i mean , the things ali told me , what she 's been through , i mean , that 's intense . she was ashamed and she was embarrassed . but she told me everything , dad . holden : okay . aaron : you 're saying okay , but -- holden : i just ca n't remember a time when she was n't lying to you about something . aaron : well , that time is over , okay ? she 's not doing it anymore . holden : what can i say ? you 're my son , she hurt you , i 'm just looking out for you . aaron : that 's cool that you 're worrying about me , dad . do n't worry about this . i got it covered . alison : forget all the threats you used before . okay ? everyone knows about everything ! all of it ! lance : somehow i doubt that . alison : it 's true . and you know i 'm never going to do meth again , so you really have nothing to hold over my head . lance : you were on the brink of a major career move , ali . how can i let you give that up ? alison : what am i giving up ? being ashamed of who i am ? what i 'm doing ? lance : well , that 's some attitude . what do you think you 're better than me now ? alison : i do n't think i 'm better than anyone . i 've just found something that works for me . lance : working in a diner ? alison : being with my family . lance : oh , that 's sweet . alison : they care about me ! lance : yeah , they 're going to keep telling you that , ali . but honey , because of me , your videos are flying off the shelves and you might nominated for newcomer of the year . alison : i 'm not interested . lance : well , maybe your boyfriend is . alison : there you -- he knows everything . so you ca n't blackmail me ! lance : i think you may have left a thing or two out . should i check ? alison : leave aaron alone ! lance : aaron , huh ? you mean , you actually went back with that jerk after he threw you away ? alison : he loves me . lance : oh , yeah ? what 's he doing about it , huh ? i used to do everything for you ! and you just slam the door in my face ! alison : i 'm not his meal ticket ! lance : give him time . alison : just get out ! go ! lance : that 's not very friendly after i 've come all this way , and i 've invested so much in you ! alison : you 've gotten all you 're going to get from me ! lance : you do n't get to make that call , i do ! and we are far from finished . maddie : noah ? noah : i 'm sorry . maddie : um , for what ? why are you apologizing ? noah : for being here . you probably want your privacy . maddie : no , it 's okay . so do you want to talk about what happened earlier ? noah : my dad came by and we had one of our famous father / son chats . maddie : oh , he must be really proud that you 're doing a segment for `` oakdale now . `` noah : he does n't give a damn about that , maddie . maddie : really ? does n't he realize that you get to make your own reel ? noah : maddie , he thinks anything having to do with theater , tv , film , whatever -- if it has anything to do with the entertainment industry , it must be a total waste of time . maddie : why ? what you 're doing takes real talent . and you 're going to develop that talent even more when you get to northwestern . noah : i 'm not going . maddie : what ? since when ? noah : since my father told me that i have to become a man and enlist in the army , just like every other male in my family . maddie : seriously ? noah : seriously . maddie : i mean , ca n't you tell him that you 're going to making movies about the army instead ? noah : he 's not giving me a choice . maddie , he 's not going to pay my tuition . maddie : wow , that 's major . noah : yeah , i 'm not sure i can get loans on my own . maddie : i 'm so sorry , noah . i wish there were something i could do . noah : it 's like the whole bottom just fell out of my whole future . that 's why when you were telling me that casey 's trying to shut you out , i could relate . maddie : casey 's trying to control me . just like your father is trying to control you . noah : it 's always been like between me and my dad . when i graduated high school , i thought i was going to finally to have something of my own . you know , college was supposed to be my great escape . and just as i 'm out the door , he sets another trap for me . maddie : you 're not going to enlist , are you ? noah : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . can we not talk about it though ? maddie : sure . sure . let me get this for you still . you 're kind of wet . um , i 'm really sorry , noah .
