[ scene_break ] jordan : short of having cameras and wiretaps , how would james know what goes on in this house or in your bedroom ? rosanna : we 'll have to lie to everyone . that includes jennifer and paul and the staff -- jordan : we could tell them the truth , rosanna . rosanna : nobody can know the truth . the more people who know the truth , the more likely it will that it will get back to james . so i think we should just sever those relationships . jordan : no , no , no , no . wait a second . i am not going to lose jennifer because of stenbeck . rosanna : well , then it 's over and cabot suffers the consequences . jordan : no , it 's not over . rosanna : okay , look , then we do it your way . we walk into the prison arm in arm . maybe james believes us , maybe he does n't . and what about all the people who work for him on this end ? they 're pretty smart . maybe they figure it out , they report back to him and then we lose cabot . jordan : we ca n't live the rest of our lives trying to please james . rosanna : well , i can if it means we raise our son . jordan : and how are we gon na raise him ? under james ' shadow , pretending that we love each other ? rosanna : at least he 'll be here and not lost so deep in the system we 're never able to find him . look , cabot comes before you , before me , before paul or jennifer or anybody else . that 's what it means to be a good parent . you put your child first . look at him . he 's little . he ca n't protect himself . we have to do it for him . but i ca n't make you feel that way if you do n't feel that way in your heart . jordan : i do feel that way . rosanna , i ca n't have him growing up the way i did , alone in some orphanage or worse . rosanna : okay . then help me . we 're just going to consummate the marriage . okay ? jordan : okay .

[ scene_break ] paul : you make it sound like meg needs to be committed . lynn : no , no , i 'm not talking about anything like that . i 'm talking about observation . paul : i 'll -- i 'll observe her . i can do it at home . i 'll watch her 24/7 . lynn : you do n't know what to look for . paul : well , then tell me what to look for . look , doctor , i 've -- i 've watched a lot of people that i love get locked up . i 'm not gon na let anything like that happen to meg . lynn : well , i ca n't force you to follow my suggestion , but if you change your mind , or if meg 's behavior becomes even more erratic , this is my private number . i 'm gon na give you this to be filled . these pills are just a mild sedative . paul : i 'm not drugging my wife . lynn : this is only in the event of an emergency . if you notice her condition worsening or you 're afraid she might harm herself then at least these pills will calm her down until you can get help . paul : she 's not gon na need them . lynn : i hope you 're right . meg : hey . so what did she say ? paul : she said you can come home . [ scene_break ] katie : brad just wanted to catch me up on how things were going at the lake . jack : and the police are involved how ? katie : well , he had taken liberty out for a driving lesson . janet : oh , my god . was there an accident ? katie : no , no . you think i would have neglected to mention that ? janet : i do n't know ! you 're neglecting so much ! why do n't you tell me what happened ? ! katie : okay , listen . then brad left to go get some supplies , and liberty decided to continue the driving lesson on her own . janet : oh , my god ! oh , my god ! so , my girl , who has one driving lesson in her life , is out there in the middle of nowhere somewhere with bradley 's car ! katie : that 's about the size of it , but listen -- listen , i was on that road myself . i barely saw one car the whole time i was there . i 'm sure it 's gon na be fine . janet : how ? how is it gon na be fine when she is behind the wheel of a car she does n't know how to drive ? jack : she could n't have gotten far , janet . janet : unh - unh . do n't do that . jack : do n't do what ? janet : do n't stick up for your brother like that . `` janet , let them have some alone time together . they 'll be fine . janet , you 're being selfish . `` so i do that and look what happens . now my daughter 's missing . jack : i 'm calling parker to see if he 's heard from her , okay ? and he 's not picking up . okay , he could be -- he could be in his room going deaf from his music . what i 'm gon na do , i 'm gon na go home . i 'm gon na check on him , and i 'll let you guys know what i find out , okay ? janet : oh , no you 're not . katie : we 're coming with you . jack : he 's not up there . katie : he 's not in the backyard , either . jack : yeah , and his bike 's out front which means he 's not in his usual hangout . katie : he could be anywhere . janet : oh , come on . what the hell are we wasting our time for ? we all know where parker is . liberty 's not joyriding in the woods all by herself . they are together on their way to god knows where . let 's go .

[ glass shatters ] [ scene_break ] parker : okay , um , i think that maybe you could use a couple more driving lessons . liberty : considering i just learned , i think i 'm pretty amazing . what , you want to jump in the driver 's seat and take over ? paranoid much ? parker : my dad 's a cop , remember ? and as soon as your dad realizes that his car 's missing , he 's gon na be on the phone with my dad . liberty : and all of his little cop buddies ? parker : yeah . there 's probably already a trace on the license plate . liberty : what does that mean ? parker : that means that the local cops are gon na be looking for his car and probably us . liberty : so what do we do now ? parker : we need to ditch the car and get as far away from it as possible . do n't worry . i 'll take care of you . [ scene_break ] brad : oh , took you long enough to get here . what part of `` alone `` did n't you understand ? katie : the part that became impossible once they figured out something was wrong . janet : you are done keeping me in the dark where my daughter is concerned . jack : how 'd you let a 16-year - old take off with your car ? brad : okay , now how did this become my fault ? janet : who 's the one that kidnapped her in the first place ? jack : listen , if you had n't dragged liberty off kicking and screaming , parker never would have followed her up here . brad : wait a minute . parker ? now he 's going after my daughter after everything that happened ? you let him ? katie : we 're not quite sure he 's up here . jack : we know he 's not home , so it stands to reason that yeah , he followed her here . brad : now look who 's not controlling their kid . janet : hold on here . okay ? if you two had n't blown something that is perfectly natural out of proportion , this never would have happened . so , now liberty and parker think they 're in the middle of this forbidden love story where their only choice is to run away . katie : oh , come on . janet : no . if you had just let them date and get bored with each other like normal american teenagers , they would not be thinking they are romeo and juliet , and if this turns into a tragedy , i know exactly who to blame .

katie tells jack and janet that brad and liberty are getting along from what she saw on her secret mission to the cabin ; she thinks this will be met with relief and happiness , but instead janet is angry with katie that she went without her ; she also feels they are judging how she is as a mother to liberty . brad and liberty bond some more after he gives her driving lessons . parker shows up at liberty and brad 's cabin wanting her to run away with him . liberty is unsure , but parker convinces her that her dad is only appeasing her for the time being , but nothing will change afterwards . meg continues to be plagued by visions of sophie 's ‘ghost ' telling her to kill paul . paul makes an appointment with dr. michaels for meg , who begrudgingly goes . jack and katie are able to calm janet down and they all try to get along . while parker hides , liberty tests brad to see how he will treat her . when she does n't like his responses , she agrees to leave with parker in brad 's car when brad walks to the store . meg sees sophie 's ‘ghost ' while she is talking with dr. michaels so dr. michaels tells paul that meg needs to be hospitalized . paul declines promising her that he can take care of meg better at home . brad realizes liberty is gone and calls katie , but since jack and janet are with her , they learn about liberty 's vanishing act too , so they anxiously join katie on her road trip to the lake – especially when they realize parker is gone too . liberty and parker 's life on the run ends as quickly as it starts when liberty comes to her senses and realizes they ca n't go on the run with less then $ 50 . parker still wants to go , but liberty tells him that she is heading back . sophie 's ‘ghost ' convinces meg that paul is trying to drive her crazy so she winds up in a sanitarium the rest of her life . meg becomes more unstable and paranoid , as she pretends to take the sedative pills paul gives her . paul calls dr. michaels and tells her that he now believes meg needs more help then he can give her , which meg overhears . even though janet is furious with brad , they and jack and katie work together to find liberty and parker , which they do soon afterwards . parker is angry at liberty . brad still wants to keep liberty and parker apart – even in the car ride home . after giving into what sophie 's ‘ghost ' suggests that she needs to do in order to save herself , meg takes paul 's gun out of the safe and hides it from him under her pillow .

[ cell phone rings ] paul : excuse me . hello . henry : it 's henry . will and i are at the party - supply warehouse on center street . we tracked your mom here , but we need your help . paul : are you with my mother now ? henry : no , but she was definitely here , paul . what we 're trying to do right now is find a clue that will tell us where she went or who has her . paul : okay . i 'll be right there . emily : what 's going on ? paul : well , henry and will are at some party warehouse , and they think that my mother was there , but now barbara 's gone . emily : party warehouse ? gwen : yeah , why would barbara go somewhere like that ? paul : i do n't know . my mom 's been a little unpredictable lately . she did fall in love with henry . emily : okay , but this does n't make any sense . paul : well , none of it makes any sense , but it 's all we 've got , so i 'm gon na go check it out . emily : okay . well , i 'm gon na go with you . paul : no , no , no . stay here . hang out with the kids . i 'll call you if anything turns up . emily : o -- kay . do you not find it the least bit ironic that the men are going out to take care of the dirty work , and here we are , taking care of the children ? gwen : not really , but i think when he said `` children , `` unfortunately , he meant my mom . emily : oh , yeah . you got a point . eliza and hallie -- they can pretty much take care of themselves , unlike your mother . gwen : i 'm -- i 'm sorry for bringing her into your home , but i -- i did n't have a choice . emily : yeah , well , you did . but it is what it is . gwen : where -- where is she anyway ? emily : your mother ? gwen : uh - huh . emily : upstairs , praying .

'cause if anybody 's looking for you , which they 're not , all they 're gon na find in that warehouse is a pair of chewed - up wax lips and that horrible - looking clown doll . and the last place that anybody 's gon na look for you is underneath paulie boy 's nose . barbara : okay , no one 's looking for me . but eventually someone 's going to get very thirsty . iris : no kidding . so let 's cut to the chase . i want all your money , and i want your passwords . barbara : then what ? iris : you see , that 's the beauty part , because then i go to bank , i get all your cash , and i jet , leaving you here , right underneath sonny boy 's roof , where he 's bound to find you sooner or later , or not . barbara : nope . wo n't do it . iris : aw ! well , that 's such a shame , babs , because , you see , that warehouse and this musty pit -- it 's gon na feel like a five - star hotel compared to the place that i 'm gon na take you to next . [ scene_break ] paul : what the hell 's going on here ? margo : henry , what 's the emergency ? paul : you called the cops ? henry : yes , i did . margo , thank you for coming . margo : well , you 're welcome , but you made it sound so urgent . henry : well , because it is . margo : oh ? paul : so out with it . henry : i was staking out barbara 's room at the lakeview . margo : of course you were . henry : that 's beside the point . that 's beside the point . anyway , while i was there , i found this . that is this place . margo : i -- i can see that . henry : okay . so i called will . we came over here . but all i could find was this clown , which was a little disappointing , kind of creepy . paul : i hate clowns . henry : yeah , i hate them , too . i used to hate clowns , but now i love clowns . know why ? you see this one 's covered in a sort of red stuff ? it 's lipstick , and it 's barbara 's shade . margo : how do you know that ? paul : wait . hold on . i 'm not sure i want to hear that . henry : 'cause it 's the same shade that 's on this tissue from her room . it 's a match . margo : all right , all right . let me get this straight . you say that barbara was here and she was making out with the clown ? henry : yeah . well , all the evidence points to that . i mean , that means she was acting a little out of her mind , all right ? paul : i think the bigger question is what would barbara be doing here in the first place ? henry : because she 's being held against her will ! would you try to keep up ? paul : you 're not making it easy . margo : what am i doing here , henry ? henry : you 're here because this is a crime scene . and i -- i 've collected all the evidence , and i just need you to take it to the lab and get it analyzed . margo : no . there 's been no crime here . henry : can we all agree that barbara is missing ? can we all agree that kissing this thing is bizarre behavior ? margo : absolutely . henry : okay , that 's very strange . and is n't it your job to investigate , uh , bizarre behavior ? margo : if it is , you would have been locked up a long time ago . henry : no . wait , wait , margo . please do n't leave , please , please . look , barbara has been locked up in here for -- for days and days , and she did n't make out with that clown . she did it to -- to leave some kind of evidence that we would find so we would n't give up on her . and if she did that , that means there 's more stuff to find . but i 'm not a cop , and i do n't -- i do n't know how to look for it . i 'd probably contaminate the evidence anyway . would you -- what do i have to do to make you handle this like the kidnapping that it really is ? margo : henry , henry -- henry : no , do n't `` henry `` me , please ? just help me ! barbara is being held hostage ! margo : henry , i -- i understand that you 're upset , but i have a lot of real crimes that i -- i need to solve today , and i ca n't stand around and talk to you about lipstick shades . henry : but margo -- margo : and if there was any evidence to indicate that a crime had been committed against barbara , then i would have my guys down here , going over this place with a fine - toothed comb . but there is simply nothing here to lead us to believe that . henry : okay , what about my gut ? margo : your gut ? oh , henry , vienna got you to marry her because she faked a pregnancy under your very nose . so i would say that your gut is far from trustworthy . paul : that 's a little harsh , do n't you think ? henry : uh , no . actually , she 's -- she 's right , paul . she 's right . but my gut told me not to marry vienna . i was listening to the wrong body part . margo : oh , well -- henry : no , that 's not why we 're here . that 's not why we 're here . margo : i ca n't help you with that . paul : you know what ? mother sent us a note saying that she 's doing just fine , so maybe we should just take her at her word . henry : if it was her word . will , what about you ? you believe me , right ? will : i think it 's a little weird that mom 's been seen around the lakeview and she 's not returning any of our calls , right ? margo : well , yes , that is strange . but t -- that 's no reason to open an investigation . paul : we 're not the world 's greatest family , you know ? we do n't hear from mother for a little while , that does n't mean that she 's in trouble . we 've been known to avoid one another for months at a time . margo : and , henry , there 's no sign of a struggle here , not was there sign of struggle a -- at the hotel . i mean , other than the -- the lipstick on the tissue , there 's no proof that barbara was here . henry : well , then , get more proof . just dust it for fingerprints or get dna or spray the room with luminal . just do something . [ margo stammers ] margo : if there 's any reason to believe that a crime has been committed , i will do that and more . i give you my word . henry : i do n't want your word , margo . i want your help . will : i wanted to find something here , too . none of this seems right . but margo 's right . there 's nothing -- henry : whoa . the lipstick belongs to barbara . i just know it . paul : henry , the lipstick could belong -- henry : belong to a lot of women . i know . but what if i 'm right and it does n't ? margo : well , if that is the case , i will do everything i can to bring barbara home ? henry : what if you 're too late ? [ scene_break ] barbara : this is the last stop for you , iris , and you know it . there is no way in hell you 're getting me out of here without anybody seeing me . iris : yeah , well , i got you in here , did n't i ? barbara : you 're bluffing . iris : has anything that i 've done to you so far indicated that i am not capable of making your life an endless hell ? barbara : how am i supposed to sign a check ? [ scene_break ] gwen : yeah , i 'm -- i 'm actually starting to believe that my mom 's higher - power thing is really working for her . emily : how 's that going for you ? gwen : well , she has n't given me any reason to doubt her yet . emily : um , i want -- i want you to know something . i -- i know what you 're going through . my mother 's an alcoholic , too , and -- and i know what it 's like . once a drunk , always a drunk . it 's never over . my mother can tell you that . gwen : yeah , well , i mean , i totally get the whole `` one day at a time `` thing . and look at your mom . she 's been sober for decades . emily : yeah , well , she -- yeah . but she fell off the wagon a couple of years ago and had to start back at day one . gwen : i 'm sorry . emily : it 's okay . it 's the nature of the disease , gwen . gwen : well , thank you very much for the warning , but my mom 's not drinking right now , and she really wants to reconnect with halley and me , so -- emily : you really want to give her another chance ? gwen : technically , it 's more like the 57th chance , but yes . and halley loves her . emily : of course she does . alcoholics are entertaining . [ emily laughs ] gwen : thank you . emily : i 'm sorry . i do n't -- i do n't mean to sound glib . i just want you to know that i understand . i understand that it is rough . it stinks , and it 's never over . even when they 're sober , it 's not over . your mother is an addict , and she 's gon na replace that alcohol with something else , gwen . gwen : well , now that i 'm a mom , i ca n't imagine not being in my child 's life . emily : being a mother changes everything , does n't it ? gwen : yeah , and it changes your perspective on everything . so if i even have half of a chance of having a semi - normal relationship with my mom , i want to do everything that i can to make it work . emily : it is a beautiful thought , but there is a fine line between support and enabling . do n't lose sight of that . gwen : okay . thank you . thank you for the advice . i 'm gon na go check on the girls quickly . [ scene_break ] katie : i 'll go find a doctor . chris : no . um -- katie : what are you doing ? chris : i 'm just looking for some anti - nausea medication . katie : you did n't say anything about being sick to your stomach ? chris : no , i 'm just -- i 'm feeling a little indigestion . did n't happen till the drive back , so -- katie : you do n't pass out from indigestion . chris : no , it happens . i mean , it 's rare , but it does -- it does happen . katie : well , then , i would like to hear someone else tell me that . chris : what , are you telling me you do n't trust me ? katie : yeah , maybe i do n't , 'cause i think right now , you should be on a gurney in the e.r . , getting checked out by a doctor . chris : please . the last thing i need is another doctor or a nurse seeing me off my game , okay ? katie : `` off your game `` ? is this about pride for you ? chris : self - preservation , okay ? as soon as i get admitted , someone 's gon na tell my father . he 's gon na tell my mother . she 's gon na run down here like her hair 's on fire for no reason . katie : what if there 's a legitimate reason ? chris : i am fine , okay ? i 'm fine . my blood sugar 's probably a little low and i got a flu coming on , all right ? but it 's nothing that needs emergency care . it does n't , i 'm telling you , all right ? i 'm not gon na clog up the e.r . just because i had a panic attack . katie : so , which one is it then -- indigestion , low blood sugar , flu , or panic attack ? chris : it 's all of the above . come here . you know , you could examine me , since we are here . you could see for -- katie : stop . do n't get all dirty and cute now . it wo n't work . chris : i did not want to be spending the afternoon here . i am so , so sorry . katie : yeah , me either . are you sure you 're okay ? chris : humble , embarrassed , a little humiliated , but , uh , health - wise , i 'm fine . katie : well , if you have low blood sugar , you should have some juice or something . chris : you know , that 's a great idea . would you , uh -- would you mind going down to the cafeteria , just get me a little , uh , something ? katie : sure . chris : thanks . katie : do n't pass out while i 'm gone . chris : fine . reid : hey , nurse . oh , relax . i do n't care that you hate me . the woman who just passed you -- why was she in this exam room ? is her kid sick ? nurse : whoever she is , she did n't check in with me .

[ scene_break ] henry : thank you for coming on such short notice . you have no idea how much we appreciate it . or maybe you do . myra : so , you 're brothers and yet not , yes ? henry : yes ! myra : but you have many conflicting emotions about the missing woman . your feelings for her are quite extreme , especially yours . why is that ? paul : you 're the psychic . you tell us . will : uh , i do n't know what henry told you , but we 're looking -- myra : no , no , please , please , do n't tell me . i like to come into these situations without preconception . that way , i do n't censor my impressions . henry : please , just give her a chance . myra : this place is very dark , deeply wounded . a heart has been broken . i 'm getting secrets . paul : how convenient . myra : deception , and a struggle . great pain . the darkest secret of all is inside that doll .

katie worries about chris when he passes out after his chest pains and after she revives him they go to memorial to have him checked out . chris downplays his condition to katie telling her it is jus low blood sugar or acid reflux . katie tells margo that she is ready to move on with chris calling him her future new boyfriend . reid is concerned about katie so he goes into the exam room and finds chris drawing his own blood and wonders why chris wo n't allow a doctor to examine him . reid suspects that chris is worried that if anyone finds out he is sick they wo n't consider him for the chief of staff position . chris does n't deny reid 's suspicions and chris orders a series of tests on his blood and puts a rush on the order . reid peaks at the tests chris ordered and asks chris why he ordered his blood be tested for a rare tropical disease .

[ dusty laughs ] they say when something comes back from the dead -- it comes back different . dusty : well , it 's definitely true in paul 's case . but , you know , maybe you ca n't blame the poor little guy after what i put him through , huh ? craig : well , maybe you ca n't blame him , but i can . after today . dusty : what happened today ? craig : ooh .

[ scene_break ] andre : ms. ryan , you leave me no choice , huh ? i accept your offer . jennifer : so much for going back to the airport for your luggage . barbara : jen -- andré : no , jennifer , i can explain everything . jennifer : oh , what is this ? andre 's traveling money , to get him out of my life ? you should 've waited for more . she 'd have offered twice as much . andre : it is not as it seems , jennifer . barbara : it 's exactly as it seems ! i offered him money as a test of character , and he could n't wait to get his hands on it . just like the playboy he is . jennifer : how dare you ? first , you take money from me . now you 're taking money from my mother ? how could you do this to me ? andre : jennifer , let 's go back to the hotel . jennifer : no , i ca n't believe i almost let you do this again . i almost let you back into my life . just get out of my sight ! barbara : you heard my daughter ! get out of here , and leave the building . and if you do not , i will call the police . while you 're at it , you might as well leave the country . andre : mon cheri , please -- jennifer : leave ! i never want to see your face again . how could he ? barbara : well , honey , maybe it was better that you saw this for yourself . he did n't deserve you -- jennifer : oh , do not touch me . barbara : honey , i know that you 're very angry with me right now , but -- -- i did this for you , so i could show you the kind of man that andré is . he was after one thing , jen -- money ! jennifer : oh , thanks for the lesson , mother . but this is my life . i am a grown woman ! barbara : i understand that , but i have lived a little bit longer than you have . i 've seen men like this before . you have n't . so it 's up to me to show you the kind of man that he really is . jennifer : the same way it was up to you to show paul the truth about rose ? barbara : no ! jennifer : unbelievable . paul was right about you the whole time . barbara : wait just a second -- jennifer : you ca n't stand it if our lives do n't revolve around you . you have to be the one in control , the only one that we love . barbara : that 's not true at all . and your brother is damaged . jennifer : no . barbara : his view of everything in life is skewed right now . no , no , no . no , no , you 're not leaving . no , 'cause we 're gon na talk , okay ? we 're gon na talk . jennifer : i 've already heard and seen everything i need to . so get out of my way , and get out of my life . barbara : where are you going ? jennifer : i do n't care -- as long as it 's far away from you . [ scene_break ] rosanna : i understand things got a little bit ugly earlier . paul : yeah . not an attractive man when he does n't get his way , your husband . rosanna : yes , well , he was speaking on my behalf , so i thought i would come here and clarify my position . paul : you already did that when you came here and tried to strong - arm me out of the lease . rosanna : oh , stop . now , i hate all of this unpleasantness , do n't you ? i mean , to prove to you that there are no hard feelings ; i 'm willing to do whatever it takes to assist in your relocation . i 'll even pay for the inconvenience . paul : you know , your husband already made pretty much the same offer . i was n't interested in it then , either . rosanna : well , come on . give me a chance . i 'm sure that , if you and i work together in the spirit of compromise , we 'll come to a solution about my apartment . paul : my apartment . rosanna : no , it 's not . but i 'm not here to quarrel with you . paul : well , then , you know , forgive me for being blunt , but why the hell are you here ? you know , you 've been married to montgomery long enough to have little business cards engraved with , `` gee , you know , you 're right . my husband really is an idiot `` on them . little black letters . it 'd be very convenient for you in a case like this . you could just have it messengered over . you know , a little wax seal on the back with your initials . maybe a little picture of craig in a dunce cap on the envelope . rosanna : that 's very funny . not a bad idea . but since craig is my husband and i happen to love him , i do n't think it 's really appropriate for me to have to stand here and tolerate your insults . especially since i came here in good faith . paul : it 's not good faith . you 're just cleaning up montgomery 's mess . and look -- i think you have to ask yourself just how much more of yourself you 're willing to sacrifice . 'cause it seems to me , you stay with this guy , you 're looking forward to a lifetime full of polite smiles and gracious apologies . rosanna : hmm , i think coming here was clearly an error in judgment . i 'll be on my way . paul : well , do n't get all mad . i thought this was gon na be more fun . wait , hold on . please , please . please stay . [ scene_break ] craig : why ca n't everyone just settle their differences , sit down , a few shared ideas , couple of drinks ? dusty : whatever happened to the neighborhood bar , you know ? that little place that you would sit back and relax and watch the game ? watch the talent -- whatever . express yourself . you know , be yourself . solve international problems . craig : exactly . see , that 's why people do n't see eye - to - eye anymore . you know ? we have the internet . we have tv . but there is no common ground . there is no meeting place . we live in a society of the technologically isolated . dusty : grudge - holders . craig : exactly . i mean , lord knows i 'm not perfect - perfect . there 's things i wish i could 've done differently . dusty : hey ! none of that . we all have . so what ? pretty soon , things are really gon na change around here . [ craig laughs ] do you have a plan ? dusty : yeah , i do . i 'm buying ' a bar . the kind of place we were just talking about . you know ? a place you come after work , loosen up the tie , forget about life for awhile . craig : here in town ? dusty : java underground . craig : that 's for sale ? dusty : not anymore . it 's mine . [ both laughing ] as soon as i get my money straight , you know ? craig : you need money ? dusty : of course i do . craig : you 've found it . [ scene_break ] susan : rick ? honey , you all right ? rick : yeah , no . i 'm fine . why ? susan : things got really tense this morning . maybe it triggered another one of those migraines , or whatever it was you had . oh , honey , your skin feels all cool and clammy . rick : words every husband longs to hear . susan : i know you 're gon na hate me for saying this to you again , but you have to let ben take a look at you . please . sooner , rather than later . rick : darling , i promised i would . susan : i know , but you said tomorrow . and i think it should be today . rick : all right , today . good . and while we 're there , i can close up a few loose ends . come on . susan : right now ? rick : mm - hmm . susan : oh , we 're here with our menus . let 's just have lunch . on second thought , i just lost my appetite . let 's get out of here . [ scene_break ] emily : did you see that ? not a word . hal : well , what , did you expect her to throw her arms around you and thank you for attacking her husband ? i told you to play it cool at the station , emily , for your sake and my sake . emily : i know what you told me . i know . i just -- i had to do something to wipe that smug expression off his face . hal : well , i hope it was worth it , because now rick decker has memorial , susan and the oakdale pd exactly where he wants us , with our hands tied . and there ai n't a hell of a lot that we can do about it . emily : we are not backing off , hal ! hal : until we get evidence , we are backing off . emily : rick decker is behind the murders at memorial and jeffery starr 's disappearance , and you know it ! so we will just have to find that evidence . no matter what it takes . hal : you know , you 've been using words like `` us `` and `` we `` a whole lot lately . how do i make it clear to you that you are not part of this investigating team ? emily : but it sounds like you 're gon na let threats from marshal travers stop this investigation , and , frankly , i do n't understand it . ca n't you have rick followed or something ? hal : now that travers is in the driver 's seat ? forget it , emily . i have to play this one strictly by the book . i have to make a tight case for tom . emily : great . that 's just great . we have no evidence . no way of getting evidence because you ca n't put a tail on rick . but we do have one ace up our sleeve . hal : is it legal , emily ? emily : yes , it 's legal . and it 's the best resource we have . and it 's sitting right under our noses . someone close to rick who could keep an eye on him , report back to us without ever knowing it . my mom . [ scene_break ] susan : first i could n't drag you in here to get a check - up . now we 're breaking speed limits . rick : well , darling , you have an amazing power of persuasion . susan : ah , i must have missed my calling . rick : you know , i figure that , while i 'm here , i might as well look in on bob and see how he 's holding up . i 'll page ben later . susan : ah -- oh ! speak of the devil ! there 's ben . ben ! ben : hey , susan . susan : hey . ben : you 're all here for that ct scan ? rick : well , i told her i was fine , but you know doctors . i guess she wo n't be satisfied until i get a note from my physician . ben : yeah . susan : we went out to lunch , and all of a sudden , he got very pale . his skin got very cool and clammy . rick : you see what i mean ? ben : it would n't hurt to get checked out . rick : all right . i know when i 'm being ganged up on . i 'll meet you down at radiology as soon as i look in on bob . ben : well , they could probably squeeze you in between appointments right now , if we hurry . susan : rick ! go with ben now and get it over with . rick : okay , right again . i 'm putty in your hands . i 'll see you . susan : alison ! alison , do n't leave . i was hoping i 'd run into you . alison : why ? susan : because i 'm your mother . because i love you . and i worry about you . and i need to know you 're all right and where you 're staying . alison : katie 's letting me stay at her place . susan : oh . well , that 's very nice of her . do you like it ? alison : it 's okay , i guess . susan : but there 's no place like home . alison : thank goodness for that . susan : sweetie , i 'm -- really sorry that things got so crazy between us the other day . i said so many things that i wish i could just take back , especially -- the way it all ended . alison : you mean , when you kicked me out ? susan : i wish those words had never come out of my mouth . alison : well , we both said a lot of things . susan : does that mean you forgive your mother ? alison : always . susan : good . 'cause i missed you ! so when are you moving back home ? alison : well , i do n't really think that it 's a really good time for that yet . susan : alison , what do you mean ? alison : i 'm really not trying to hurt your feelings , mom , i swear . and i even came by the other night to explain everything , but you were sleeping on the couch , so -- susan : well , why did n't you wake me up ? alison : i tried to . but you were , like , out cold , so i just decided to let you rest . susan : rick and i were exhausted . but you know you can always wake us up . alison : rick was n't there . susan : of course he was there . he was sleeping right next to me on the sofa . alison : yeah , if he 's the invisible man . mom , you were on that sofa alone . [ scene_break ] craig : so what would you say to this -- you do n't have to answer me now . but just -- just think about it for a minute . dusty : think about what ? craig : the two of us running java underground . [ dusty laughs ] craig : it 's a great idea ! it 's a great idea ! dusty : it 's a great idea for somebody who wants a partner . i do n't want a partner . i 'm a control freak . craig : even better . i like to stay in the background . come up with ideas . dusty : keep talking . craig : you run the place . you come to me when you want to make things happen . dusty : or make things go away . craig : we understand each other . dusty : you and me , huh ? craig : mm - hmm . dusty : we could . craig : crazy not to . dusty : i think we should get another round . [ scene_break ] rosanna : what do you think you 're doing ? get your hands off me . paul : look , i -- i do n't see why you 're so offended . you said you came here in good faith . rosanna : well , obviously i did n't know what i was thinking . i suppose i got carried away with my good faith . going to church does that to people . paul : since when do you go to church ? rosanna : since carly and jack had their baby christened . i 'm their godmother . paul : place must 've been crawling with snyder 's , huh ? was -- was rose there ? rosanna : yes , as a matter of fact , she was , with her persona non grata , making quite a spectacle of themselves . you know , i know what it 's like to be betrayed by people who are supposed to love you . paul : do you ? rosanna : yes . i thought i would hate my sister for the rest of her life after what she did to me . but there i am , a year later , at her baby 's christening . paul : how sweet . all that family forgiveness . i ca n't afford to forgive barbara . that goes the same for that guy that i used to call my best friend . rosanna : what about rose ? paul : she 's not entirely blameless in all this , but i do n't think the whole mess is her -- her fault . i feel sorry for her , if anything . she thinks she 's in love with some guy who does business with mobsters . rosanna : that 's all you feel for her , pity ? paul : okay . you know what ? do n't -- do n't -- do n't . all right ? really . i get enough of the , `` hey , you 're still in love with rose , `` from lily and from my sister . rosanna : that 's all right . your private life is none of my concern . paul : you 're right . it 's really not . rosanna : and the civil moment has passed . good - bye . paul : hey , does this mean you 're gon na stop hassling me about the lease to this place ? rosanna : no . [ knock at door ] paul : she 's crazy about me , i 'm telling you . this girl ca n't get enough of me . jen . yeah , what 's -- what 's wrong ? jennifer : it 's mom . she 's so twisted . she is completely out of control ! paul : what did she do ? jennifer : i am never gon na believe another word that she says again , ever . why did n't i listen to you ? [ scene_break ] alison : this thing that we 're doing -- let 's not do it anymore . [ scene_break ] barbara : if that 's what you want , just stay dead to me . but you leave jennifer out of this , okay ? she just came back to me . i 'm not gon na have you take her away from me ! [ scene_break ] jennifer : so i go over to monte carlo , or b.r.o . -- whatever it 's called ! and i see mom with andré . she 's handing him a check . paul : a check ? jennifer : for $ 25,000 ! that 's what she 's paying him to get him out of my life ! paul : jen , i 'm sorry . i am so sorry . aw . i thought -- you know , i thought the guy was on the up - and - up . he seemed to really want to be with you . jennifer : i thought so , too . i missed him so much . and when he said that he missed me , i -- how could i have let him do this to me ? why am i so stupid ? paul : so , where is this guy ? jennifer : i have no idea . paul : no , really . you do n't got to protect the guy . you can just tell me where he is . jennifer : i do n't know , paul . he 's probably on a plane , swilling a glass of champagne in first class . paul : i 'm not gon na hurt him . just tell me where he is . jennifer : paul , do n't . all right ? he 's gone . that 's it . just leave it alone . all right ? i 'm better off without him . i am . paul : and that 's it ? wow . all that betrayal and all that heartache , and just a few tears , and that 's it . i 'm so impressed by you . i wish i could 've done the same thing . jennifer : when mom did it to you , too . paul : but unlike me , you 're probably gon na find a way to forgive her . jennifer : never . i will never forgive her . [ knock at door ] paul : wonder who that could be ? jennifer : she tracked me down . listen -- get rid of her , will you ? [ knock at door ] paul : jen , really , nothing would make me happier than to do that right now , but i -- this is your battle , and you 're gon na have to fight it by yourself . so -- go get her . [ knock at door ] barbara : i was hoping you 'd be here . jennifer : what do you want , mother ? barbara : honey , ca n't we just talk ? please ? we 've always been able to talk . there 's nothing you ca n't say to me . jennifer : nothing ? oh , then come on in . [ scene_break ] kim : hi ! rick : hello , kim . i heard you were here . kim : yeah , i just was going to refuel on caffeine . i did n't know you were working tonight . rick : well , i 'm just looking in on some patients . i heard that bob is making some real improvements . kim : oh , yes . it 's remarkable . in on my favorite patient . kim : all right . i 'll be right back . nurse mel : can i help you ? rick : i 'm -- i 'm dr. rick decker . here to see my patient . who are you ? nurse mel : i 'm dr. hughes ' private nurse . rick : fine . if you 'd step outside for a minute while i complete my examination ? nurse mel : sorry , dr. decker . i do n't think so . [ scene_break ] hal : are you out of your mind ? there 's no way your mother 's gon na let us spy on her husband . hell , she 's probably not even gon na talk to you for the next couple of months . emily : you know what ? the facts were staring her right in the face , and she chose to close her eyes . hal : she 's in love with the guy , emily . she sees what she wants to see . the only thing that we can hope for is that if the chips are down , there is one line that she wo n't cross . emily : what do you mean ? hal : she would n't cover for rick to protect him , would she ? emily : i do n't know . i mean , look at the way she was with alison , when the cops were looking for her about the arson ? she was like a guard dog . hal : yeah , well , it 's the same with all you stewart women . you defend each other till you 're blue in the face . but would she defend a serial killer simply because he 's sharing her bed ? emily : that 's not what she sees when she looks at him , hal . she sees her husband , the man who loves her , the prominent physician . in her eyes , this man is innocent . hal : exactly . he 's forcing her to estrange herself from you and from alison . that way , she 's got nobody to turn to when she starts having doubts . emily : unless i can convince her that she can still turn to me . hal : well , that would be nice , emily , but the way you two went at it at the police station , i doubt you 're gon na be able to pull that off . emily : i 'm not so sure , either . wish me luck ? i 'm gon na need it . hal : good luck . [ scene_break ] susan : when i woke up , rick was sleeping right beside me . alison : i do n't see how . when i came into the house , you were , like , dead asleep on the couch . so i went upstairs to pack . and when i came back down , i put the cover over you , and then i just -- was next to you for a little while . susan : you were ? alison : yeah , i even talked to you , but you did n't really hear me . mom , i swear , rick was nowhere to be seen . susan : maybe he was in the bathroom . alison : yeah , if he was in there for like a half an hour , maybe . mom , i was almost everywhere in that house . i even called out his name , but no one answered . the place was completely rick - free . you were on that couch alone . his car was gone , too . is it possible that rick was -- i mean , could he have gone away for even a few minutes ? he was with you the whole time -- is that what you 're saying ? alison : mom , what 's wrong ? what happened ? susan : nothing . i 'm fine . alison : mom , you do n't look fine . susan : i -- i 'm just trying to figure out when i 'm gon na have time to get your things together and send 'em over . alison : oh , it 's okay . i 'll do that myself . it 's okay . susan : no , i do n't mind helping . i just need to ask you something . alison : what ? susan : if -- you talk to emily , would you mind staying off the subject about your moving out ? she really -- she really chewed me out for letting you do it in the first place . alison : yes , because you kicked me out and -- susan : i know , i know . and i do n't want there to be any more unpleasantness between you two . so if she asks you what we talked about , you tell her that we patched things up . okay ? just tell her that we worked things out . alison : yes . but , mom -- susan : i assume that katie 's asked you to pay some rent . you need help with that ? oh , listen , anything you need , you just come to mama ! okay ? alison : great , mom . thanks . susan : okay . so back to work . i love you . alison : love you , too ! emily : hey , mom . there you are . [ susan scoffs ] emily : no , no , do n't worry . i 'm not here to start another fight . i promise . susan : well , that 'd be a first . emily : well , you know me . i mean , we 're always going full - throttle for each other -- susan : so that 's why you decided rick was fair game ? emily : i apologize . okay ? i came here to say i 'm sorry , and -- i 'm just protective of you because i love you , and i do n't know what i would do without you . susan : you 're not losing me , emily . emily : i feel like i am sometimes . susan : do n't you want me to be happy ? emily : yes . i do , more than anything in the world . and if rick happens to be the guy that -- susan : he is . emily : okay , well then i 'm -- i 'm gon na do my best to give him another chance . and i figure there 's no time like the present , so where is he ? susan : no , there 's no need to do anything . apology accepted . emily : just like that ? and here i thought this was the part where i , you know , have to grovel and try real hard to -- susan : emily , emily -- please go away . okay ? just go away . emily : what 's going on ? mom , look at me . wait , mom ! listen to me . what is going on ? do n't -- do n't hide it from me . tell me what it is . [ scene_break ] kim : oh . is -- is there a problem ? rick : this -- nurse is refusing me unrestricted access to my patient . that 's the problem . kim : oh , well , you know , he 's just doing what he was hired to do . rick : and what would that be ? kim : well , he was asked not to leave bob under any circumstances . he 's been asked to stay with him all the time . and , mel , i 'm so glad to find that you were so attentive . that 's not a problem for you , is it , rick ? rick : i 'm not sure what private nurses go for , but you certainly got your money 's worth . excuse me . [ scene_break ] barbara : would you mind terribly if i had a word alone with jennifer ? jennifer : this is paul 's home , mother . you ca n't just swoop in here and tell him what to do . and i want him to stay . he already knows everything , anyway . barbara : i 'm sorry , honey . i am so sorry that andré broke your heart again . and i 'm so sorry that i 'm the one that had to make you see this . but i knew that he was bad news . he probably heard that you were gon na work for b.r.o . , and knew the kind of money that you 'd be making . jennifer : oh , yeah , that reminds me -- remind me to get another job . barbara : wait , wait . no , no , no , jen , no . we 're gon na be a team . you have to be at b.r.o . you ca n't give up a fabulous opportunity like this . paul : yeah , that 's right . guilt her into staying . worked so well with me . barbara : do you see what he 's doing ? he 's trying to poison your mind against me . paul : i do n't need to do that . you 're doing that all by yourself . barbara : what have i done to make you hate me so , when all i ever wanted from you was your love ? i give , and i forgive . and look what you do to me . you become a thing that 'd rather be dead than be my son . so fine . fine . if that 's what you want , you just stay dead to me . but you leave jennifer out of this , okay ? she just came back to me . i 'm not gon na have you take her away from me . jennifer : well , what do you think i am , a consolation prize ? barbara : no , i did n't say that , jen ! no . jennifer : you got b.r.o . for paul . then he was gone , so you roped me in . you only want me because you ca n't have him . that 's what this is all about .

luke : dad -- glad you found the place . holden : why 'd you want to meet me down here ? luke : neutral ground , i guess . holden : maybe we should have met over at yo 's and pow - wowed over a couple of shots . luke : dad , i know , i messed up , okay ? holden : yeah , you did . and thank god you got hauled down to the station instead of getting into a car with your so - called friends and ending up wrapped around a tree . luke : dad ! holden : come on , luke . you 've got more going on for you than that . you know better ! luke : i said , i know i messed up ! okay ? could you cut me some slack ? holden : i have been cutting you slack ! i know that these past few months have been very difficult for you . but that does not give you a blank check to go out and do -- luke : dad , believe me -- i get it . would this be the worst time to ask you for a favor ? holden : you 're kidding , right ? luke : no . i need you to talk to mom . about keith .

[ scene_break ] paul : one baby , same foot , different prints . rosanna , this is what you were trying to tell me . emily : hey -- what , you stay up all night ? what ? what 's going on ? what was that ? what 's going on ? i thought we were n't going to keep any secrets from each other . paul : i think maybe something shady happened with jennifer 's baby .

[ scene_break ] carly : she was just awful , jack . jack : she told you our home was n't good enough for her baby ? carly : in between threatening me and making demands , yes . who does that little kid think she is ? jack : she 's probably feeling threatened . carly : what in the world can she possibly have to feel threatened about ? she 's the one who marched in here demanding to take the baby back ! jack : she actually said that she wanted the baby back ? she already signed the papers . carly : gwen told me that she has 30 days to change her mind . which to me makes it sound like that beautiful baby is more like a pair of shoes . jack : okay . all right , why do n't we just step back , take a breath and think this through . carly : i have thought about it , jack . and the more i think about it , the more infuriating it is . like that child has any idea what it takes to take care of a baby . jack : how old is she ? carly : i do n't know . i did n't even ask her . when she was holding the baby , she was staring like it 's the first time she 'd even seen one . i 'm telling you , she can not look after him . which is why i have a call in to one of rosanna 's lawyers . jack : you got an attorney involved ? carly : absolutely . jack , we need a restraining order or something . i want this gwen norbeck as far away from us and that little baby as she can possibly get . [ scene_break ] barbara : these are just some things that i had for you that i never got a chance to give you . and this little outfit was one of them . i just thought we should put them down in storage . jennifer : why ? barbara : because i do n't think it 's healthy to have them around where you can dwell on them . jennifer : why put them in storage ? why do n't you just get rid of them ? barbara : because , honey , someday you 'll want these things . you 're going to have more children . you 're going to have a little boy , a little girl -- jennifer : no , do n't say that . i do n't want another child , i want my baby ! barbara : honey -- i know how painful this is for you . and i know that you 're hurting and i know that your hormones are still raging , but you know , you will get through this . it will feel better than it does today , jen . jennifer : do n't say that this is my hormones , mother . and please do n't tell me what i will or wo n't do . just get rid of these baby things . barbara : jen , jen -- margo : i guess she 's still pretty emotional , huh ? barbara : i guess you 're not here to see me . margo : no . i had to come pick up a check from lisa for the police benevolent association . but i could n't help overhearing you talking about some baby clothes . barbara : i keep telling myself that she 's going to get through this . but she 's in as much pain as she was the day he died . margo : well , in the meantime , could n't will 's child use the clothes ? barbara : you need to get out more . get out from behind that desk , because will is the father of no one 's child . margo : he 's not ? well , i thought casey said that -- barbara : it was a misguided attempt to help out a friend . he felt sorry for the girl and she took advantage of his good nature . margo : well , i guess you 're relieved . barbara : can you imagine ? can you imagine if will had been the father of this child ? he would have ruined his life . margo : excuse me , but if will is n't the father , did he say who was ? barbara : i did n't ask , margo . and as long as it 's not my son , i could n't care less . [ scene_break ] casey : tell me it 's not true . you 're not really thinking about getting the baby back ? gwen : i do n't know what you 're all bent about . it 's none of your business anyway . casey : if what you told me about the baby is true , it is my business . gwen : oh , i get it . it 's not that it 's a bad idea for me or the baby , you 're just freaking because you 're scared that your little secret is going to leak out . casey : it was one night , gwen . why are you trying to ruin everyone 's life over it ? gwen : whose life is the only one that 's even come remotely close to getting ruined ? mine . this is about a whole lot more than one night for me , casey . i felt that baby growing inside me for all those months . so what 's going on right now is between me and my baby . it has absolutely nothing to do with you . [ scene_break ] carly : what is she going to do , jack ? strap the baby onto her back in history class ? have him nap during physical education ? jack : i know you do n't want to hear this , but the fact is that if gwen wants the baby back , there might not be anything we can do about it . carly : what court would possibly decide that that child should raise a baby ? she ca n't , jack . she should n't be given that kind of responsibility . because she ca n't . jack : listen to me ! listen . she 's not a child , she may be young , but she 's not a little girl . she 's nearly an adult . she might not be as experienced as a mother as you are , but that does n't mean the baby 's in any real danger . carly : jack , the kid who walked into this house yesterday could not raise a goldfish . and she does n't have two nickels to rub together either ! jack : yes . i 'm guessing you said that to her , too , right ? carly : not in those exact words . what ? you should have heard the things she was saying to me . jack : so you lost your temper and things spun out of control . carly : i could n't help it . jack : i bet . that 's one of the things i love so much about you . carly : do n't try to make me feel better . jack : i 'll go talk to gwen . carly : oh , no ! do n't do that . let the lawyer handle it . you just got home , you have n't even slept . jack : like i can get any sleep now ? no , no . attorneys just complicate things more than they need to be . listen , i 'll talk to gwen , i 'll get her to see it would be better for the baby to stay here with us . and maybe with no yelling and screaming , we can come to a compromise . [ scene_break ] emily : those papers you just stashed -- they were hospital records , were n't they ? paul : how did you know that ? emily : you do n't have to hide it from me . okay ? i think i understand what you 're trying to do . paul : you do ? emily : yeah . you 're looking for someone to blame . i 'm just not sure suing memorial for negligence is going to get you what you want . i 'm not trying to tell you how to run your life , but just think about it for a minute , okay ? jennifer 's baby was born so early . maybe he just was n't strong enough to survive on his own . paul : what if jennifer 's baby could have survived ? emily : questions like that are n't going to bring him back . and dragging it through court -- it 's just going to make jennifer relive it . and she 's in pain , paul . she needs to heal . paul : i promise you that i wo n't say a word to jennifer until i have absolute proof of what happened . emily : good . that 's good . the best thing you can do for your sister right now is stop obsessing over things you ca n't change . focus on the future . get her to do the same thing . stay positive . paul : how do you do that ? emily : simple things . like , today , i 'm going to go buy a baby gift , and i 'm going to stop and see carly and the new baby . want to come with me ? paul : no . i was actually there yesterday . i saw him then . emily : oh . okay . paul : you give them my love , though . emily : okay . [ scene_break ] lily : how could you think i do n't trust you ? keith : well , you basically said , `` how dare you take my kid flying ? `` lily : no , no , no . i had no idea where you were . you do n't understand that ? keith : once i explained it to you , you still jumped on us . lily : all right , fine , i overreacted , and i appreciate what you did for luke . if you had n't stayed behind , he would 've sneaked out and gotten into worse trouble . thank you . keith : so what 's the problem ? lily : me , him , everybody . this family is just going through so much transition right now . keith : well , you know what ? maybe you should n't be such a scaredy cat . change could be good . lily : you have no idea how difficult this past year has been for luke . he needs a little stability in his life , please . keith : same - old same - old , you know ? but i 'm telling you he changed up there . the day before yesterday he was stomping around , he was angry at the world , and especially me . couple hours in the air , he 's excited , he 's asking a million questions about everything , you know ? so , you see , that experience up there -- he brought that back down here with him . lily : i know , i know . i felt the same way when you took me up there . keith : okay . so , i just thought i was getting through to him . life for luke was like one disaster after another , but now he 's got some kind of hope , something to believe in , something new . lily : well , since when did you know so much about luke ? keith : because i was just like him when i was his age . i was as mad at everybody , i would n't listen to anything . lily : what changed ? keith : well , i found something i love . flying changed my life , and i think it could change his life , too . lily : i think you 're a wonderful man , and you have so many qualities i would love luke to emulate , but this is different . keith : why ? lily : because flying -- i mean , flying , this is not a decision i can make alone . alone , you know . keith : i see . so you have to fly it past holden ? lily : yeah , holden and i may not be together anymore , but as parents , we are . and i can tell you , holden will not approve . [ scene_break ] holden : okay , so let me get this straight . after your mother grounded you , you decided to sneak out of the house anyway , and that 's when keith caught you . luke : yeah -- holden : but instead of bringing you back up to your room , and locking you in there until your mother got back , he took you up in an airplane ? luke : yes . it was awesome , dad . we flew everywhere . i could even see the lights on this roof . it was crazy . holden : yeah , i 'll bet . okay , luke , i think you 're right . i think it 's time that i talked to your mother , and keith . [ scene_break ] emily : she wants the baby back ? carly : yeah , can you believe the nerve ? well , that little kid is not getting anywhere near rosanna 's baby again , not even if i have to park myself on that doorstep and beat her away with a stick . emily : what does jack say about all of this ? carly : he says that the law might be on her side . emily : seriously ? carly : seriously . he just went to talk to her , to see if he could talk some sense into her . emily : well , what 's he going to say to her , carly ? carly : hopefully , that if she values her life , she 'll stay away because if his wife ever sees her again that little witch will wish she 's never been born . emily : what if he ca n't convince her to let it go , honey ? carly : i do n't know . i just know that i ca n't give up that baby , emily . when rosanna first told me she was going to adopt him , i saw this hope in her that i had n't seen in so long . then when she asked me and jack if we would take the baby and take care of it if anything ever happened to her , it just means the world to me that she trusts me like that . emily : i know , i understand , but can we talk numbers for a second here ? i mean , you 've got your two and jj . and now rosanna 's ? i know you 're not working and i know what jack makes as a cop , it 's gon na take some creative budgeting . carly : it 's okay because rosanna took care of all that . she set up a trust fund for the baby . it 's like she knew . it 's almost like she knew -- emily : no , no . what she knew was that you would take care of her child whether there was a trust fund or not because she knows what a big heart you got . carly : you 'd do the same thing for your sister , i know that . it 's all i can do for rosanna now , and i know she will never forgive me if i give her baby away . [ scene_break ] gwen : look , casey , if you think this is some pathetic attempt to hook up with you , you 're wrong . casey : then why are you doing it ? gwen : because i want my baby back . did n't you hear me the first time ? casey : yeah , what if you do get her back ? you know what everybody 's next question 's gon na be . gwen : i 'm not gon na tell anybody who the father is . nobody 's gon na know . casey : celia and will know . gwen : you think they 're gon na say anything ? do n't you trust any -- never mind , i already know the answer to that question . casey : listen , as soon as people see you trying to take care of a baby by yourself , they 're gon na want to know where the father is . gwen : it 's none of their business , so you can go back to pretending like nothing ever happened . jack : hey , case . casey : hi , jack . jack : i 'm sorry to interrupt you , but i need to talk to your friend here . casey : no problem . i 've got ta check some messages anyway . jack : gwen norbeck , right ? i 'm detective jack snyder . gwen : carly 's husband . jack : yeah , i understand you paid our house a little visit last night ? gwen : that 's right . it 's not against the law . you ca n't arrest me for that . jack : i do n't want to arrest you , gwen . i want to talk to you . can i buy you something to eat , a drink maybe ? gwen : um , i 'm kind of sick of the food here . jack : we can go someplace else if you want . gwen : does this uniform look like i can come and go whenever i want ? just say what you have to say . jack : my wife says that you and she got pretty upset last night . gwen : yeah , she would n't let me see my kid . jack : well , you did show up out of the blue , gwen , and she could n't be sure who you were . gwen : oh , she knew who i was . jack : and you already knew that her sister had a really bad accident that she 's still pretty shaken up over . gwen : yeah , and i 'm sorry about that . jack : and when something happens like that to someone you love , you tend to hold the people around you a little tighter . gwen : i get that . that 's why i want my kid back . jack : gwen , if you 're worried that we wo n't love him like one of our own , you should n't be . we already do . gwen : except that i did n't give him to you . jack : no , you did n't , gwen . you gave him to carly 's sister , who asked that we take care of him if anything should happen to her . she gave it a lot of thought , gwen . she wanted to make sure that the baby 's best interests were looked after . is n't that why you chose rosanna in the first place ? gwen : yeah , but things are different now . she 's gone and i 'm here . i 'm the baby 's mother , he ought to be with me . jack : no , he ought to be with people who have a good chance at showing him a good life . gwen : and you do n't think i can ? you do n't know me . jack : raising a child is n't as easy as it sounds , especially when you have n't even graduated high school yet . how do you plan to cope ? gwen : your wife asked me the same question , and i 'll tell you exactly what i told her . whatever it takes , i can handle it . whenever i need to be at school or at work , i 'll hire a babysitter . jack : do you have any idea how much that costs , gwen ? gwen : i do n't need to worry about money . my kid 's rich . [ scene_break ] paul : so after my sister , jennifer , brought her baby to the hospital , there was nothing out of the ordinary in terms of his treatment , was there ? nurse bently : i do n't know what you 're expecting to hear , mr. ryan , but i can assure you that memorial has one of the best neonatal units in the country . your sister 's baby got the best care available . everything that could have been done for him -- paul : so , after he was born , you were with him the entire time ? nurse bently : i was there until the end of my shift . paul : well , who took over then ? nurse bently : special duty nurse kristen thompson . paul : i need a number for her . i should probably talk to her . nurse bently : i 'm sorry , mr. ryan , she 's gone . paul : what do you mean `` she 's gone ? `` nurse bently : she left town with no forwarding address the night your nephew was born , in fact . paul : why 'd she leave town ? nurse bently : rumor has it she came into a large sum of money , the lottery or something . at first , i did n't know whether to believe it , but this is america . paul : there 's got to be another way to reach her . she 's got family , she 's got friends ? was she seeing anybody , do you know ? nurse bently : i 'm sorry , mr. ryan . like i told mrs. montgomery , i do n't know where she went . paul : rosanna asked you about this nurse ? nurse bently : yes sir , when i met with her about the donation she wanted to make to the hospital . paul : do you remember when that was ? nurse bently : how could i ever forget ? it was the same day as her accident . we met at the coffee shop , java . and to think , just a few hours later , she was gone . [ scene_break ] announcer : coming up -- on `` as the world turns . `` jack : come up to the house . maybe we can work out some kind of compromise if we just talk all this out . carly : will you and paul be the baby 's godparents ? jennifer : wait , i know you . [ scene_break ] paul : rosanna must have told you why she needed to find this nurse . nurse bently : she was making a donation to memorial 's nurses ' organization . she said she wanted to thank us all individually and asked if i could make a list of everyone 's names and addresses . paul : so the only thing she wanted to know about this nurse was her address ? nurse bently : well , she asked a few other questions , but i do n't think i could tell you what they were . mainly , i remember not being able to give her nurse thompson 's address . paul : do you think maybe this kind of a cover - up story ? nurse bently : no , i do n't think so . she handed me a very generous check . paul : there 's got ta be something rosanna said to you . nurse bently : i 'm sorry , mr. ryan . i 've told you everything i know . paul : well , i 'm sorry , too , but this is very important to me . nurse bently : i 'm sure it is . but we gave mrs. montgomery 's child the same care as every other baby . i 'm not gon na help you make a case against our staff . i think i 'd better go . paul : no , please , do n't go . not yet . please . listen , rosanna said something to me the night of the accident , but she lost consciousness before i could really understand what she was saying . so i 'm trying to retrace her steps . and maybe i can figure out what happened to her before she got into the car that night . and if you and i keep talking , maybe you 'll say something that could help . nurse bently : i 'm not sure i can help -- [ knock on door ] paul : i 'm going to ignore that . all right , i 'm going to get rid of whoever that is , and then you and i , maybe we can finish up . jennifer : paul , i really need to talk to you . oh , i 'm sorry , i did n't know that you had a meeting . wait . i know you . [ scene_break ] gwen : the baby comes with money to make sure that he gets everything that he needs . jack : comes with ? gwen : yep , mrs. montgomery set up some kind of account . some trust fund thing . jack : rosanna told you that ? gwen : nope , a lawyer did . jack : gwen , you contacted a lawyer ? gwen : i sure did . and i read the papers . look , i know how difficult it is for somebody like me to deal with people i want my kid back . your wife was really mean about it , so i called somebody who can help me get him back . he told me about the money . jack : okay . all right . even with all the money in the world , raising a child without easy . gwen : people do it all the time . jack : oh , have you talked to any of them ? because i guarantee you , all of them will say the same thing . that it 's no picnic doing it alone . gwen say you have to work here late or you 've got a big final exam you got ta study for , and you can barely keep your eyes open . and the baby starts crying , you have no idea what the problem is . it helps having a partner there to help . and i 'm sorry if i 'm getting too personal , but have you thought about how this is going to change your life ? graduating high school is one thing , gwen . then you 're supposed to go to college , date , manage a love life ? all with a baby demanding your attention night after night . do you have any close family you can rely on to help you out here ? gwen : not really . jack : okay , what about the father ? is he in the picture , can he help ? gwen : no . jack : before you make up your mind , please , come out to the house again , spend some more time with the baby . gwen : your wife 's not gon na let me do that . jack : okay , carly can be really understanding once you get to know her . we all get tense when we feel like we 're pressured , right ? come out to the house , maybe we can work some kind of compromise if we just talk all this out . gwen : what you 're saying about it being hard and everything may be so , but do n't you think that a baby should know who his mom is ? jack : i think there 's a way for you to stay in his life without having to shoulder all the responsibility day after day . gwen : a compromise . jack : yeah . i 'm sorry that you and carly got off on the wrong foot , i really am . i 'll talk to her . i 'm sure we can work something out .

katie finally agrees to team up and do some recognizance work to help henry find out what his mother is up to . barbara is demanding that emily tell her where paul is , but she wo n't budge . it is n't necessary when a noise causes barbara to figure out where paul is hiding . they find him three sheets to the wind babbling about wine and his ‘dear ole dad . ' barbara wants to take him to the hospital , but emily is adamant that he not go . paul decides to go with barbara , but winks at emily that he has a plan . at the hospital , paul and emily trick barbara and knock her unconscious with a wine bottle . paul decides he needs to straighten this out once and for all and go talk to the doctors . emily pleads with him to reconsider , but paul is adamant . meg and holden disagree about lily getting involved with her and damian 's relationship . meg is sure lily still has feelings for damian , but holden is still in the dark about that claiming lily only wants what is best for her . like everyone else . meg is somewhat insecure as well as to if holden thinks damian has a hold on lily and vice versa . meanwhile , lily and damian are kissing passionately ; their amorous act is secretly seen by faith . lily pulls back and claims that she did n't want the kiss and it was all damian . damian says she is n't telling the truth and she still loves him . lily ca n't hide her jealousy of meg and how they are sleeping together , as damian calls her on her obvious ongoing relationship with holden so how can she say anything . damian asks her to leave holden and be with him , but a guilt ridden and nervous lily tells him holden is her soul mate and she wo n't leave her family . an angry damian orders her out of his life then . luke and holden head back home to pack for their trip , where lily is trying to regain her composure . she is desperate to forget what happened so she offers to make holden and luke 's trip a family vacation . everyone is thrilled , but faith , who lashes out and heads outside , leaving everyone scratching their heads . katie tries to hit up audrey for information on jay stanhope , but she is not interested in talking about that . her mood visibly changes when she gets a note from the person saying he knows she is looking for him and says where she can find him ; she leaves quickly leaving katie wondering . upstairs , henry finds his brush and a coffee cup in a bag for a dna test . he later talks with katie thinking his mother must have had an affair with jay and killed him so he could n't find out she cheated on his dad . katie thinks it is too out there , but she agrees something is going on . henry tails his mother . meg has trouble reaching damian and shows up at his room nervous and worried that he has changed his mind about them and that his heart is with lily . damian lies about how he feels for lily and claims meg is the only one in his heart and life . meg is unsure at first still noticeably insecure , but damian charms her and soon they are falling into bed , as he tries to forget lily . paul is confused when he finds noone in the hospital and most of the doors locked ; he tells emily he needs to look farther . barbara wakes up , but emily locks her in the car to give paul time . henry confronts audrey at the same hospital where paul and emily are . he thinks she killed jay , but she admits that jay is n't dead ; he is an alias of another man , who is actually henry 's real father . she wonders if he wants to know who his father really is . meg feels more secure now , as she lies in damian 's arms not knowing his thoughts are of lily . lily tries to find out why faith is so mad , but she only hints at the fact that lily is not who she says she is . later , luke tries to get faith to be happy about the vacation , but faith tells him that she hates her mother and that she is n't the doting mother and wife everyone thinks . holden has to leave for his meeting before they can get to the bottom of what is eating at faith , but luke thinks he should stay and offer support to his mom with faith , without alluding to what faith said about lily . faith does n't want holden to go , but he has to , promising to see them all in the next couple of days . paul finally finds an unlocked door and walks up behind a man sitting with his back to him in a wheelchair . paul utters the word – dad , as he approaches the man .

[ scene_break ] alison : uh , okay , slow down . so -- so you 're saying that , uh , you and chris were starting to relax , and -- katie : we went from conversation to -- not so much conversation , and i can honestly say that when he kissed me , i felt like i could melt . and then he got sick . casey : sick -- sick as like sick to his stomach ? katie : no , worse than that . he was in horrible pain . he passed out on the floor . alison : he passed out ? w -- what did he say was wrong with him ? katie : he did n't say , and i did n't know , so i wanted to call an ambulance , and he would n't let me , so i drove him to memorial . alison : well , what was the diagnosis ? katie : an acid - reflux attack . casey : he passed out from acid reflux ? i mean -- katie : yeah , right . strange ? casey : yeah . alison : okay . well , i guess the good news is you guys can pick up right where you left off another night . katie : yeah , that 's what i was thinking . i actually said something like that to him . and that 's when he really started acting weird . alison : weird how ? katie : i do n't know . he was being his sweet self , you know , like he usually is , and then two seconds later , he was the complete opposite , totally distracted and irritated , like he could not wait to get away from me . alison : well , that is weird . casey : well , i -- i would n't worry . i know for a fact chris is totally into you . katie : no . something 's definitely wrong , and i have a feeling its me . i 'm gon na go see jacob . casey : she totally flipped out . alison : can you blame her ? you know , you need to track chris down and find out what happened . casey : what am i supposed to say to the guy ? `` hey , you screwed up your big night with katie ? `` what ? alison : i do n't -- i do n't care . handle it however you want . but you should just go and find him and talk to him . and -- and whatever you do , do n't scare him off , okay , please ? thank you . [ scene_break ] luke : tough case ? reid : uh , a few surprises thrown in . luke : are you ready to go ? reid : you know , i have to stop at the pharmacy first . luke : oh , i 'll go with you . reid : it might take me a little while . why do n't you go ahead to metro and get us a table and , uh , i 'll meet you there ? luke : okay . i 'll see you there . reid : all right . chris : thank you . reid : do n't thank me . i should n't be doing this . neither should you . chris : look , i do n't have a choice . reid : the hell you do n't . open your mouth and tell the truth , especially to katie .

[ barbara groans ] emily : okay , listen , i know what you 're up to , okay ? i get it . you engineered this little , silly kidnapping of yours so henry would feel bad and come running to your rescue . and all the better if he dragged along paul , because everybody knows you 've always wanted those men all to yourself . [ barbara groans ] emily : oh , this is a plan . this is quite a plan . very , very barbara - like of you . it 's too bad it 's not gon na work out since i literally stumbled on you mid - conspiracy . but all 's well .

[ scene_break ] casey : you know you screwed up with katie big - time ? chris : how do you figure that ? casey : katie thinks you practically hate her . chris : why would she think i hate her ? casey : maybe because you 've been acting like a jerk . i do n't know . chris : look , i 'm gon na make it up to her , okay ? casey : yes , and this is how you 're gon na do it -- the four of us going out , you , me , katie , alison . we 'll go to metro , have a few drinks . you get a chance to make peace with katie . chris : you 're a genius . casey : that 's what i 'm talking about . chris : i 'll call her . hold on .

[ scene_break ] emily : you saw iris coming behind me to hit me over the head with that bottle and you let her do it anyway ? barbara : i 'm due a little entertainment after what i 've been through . emily : if you gave me a warning , we would n't be stuck in here . barbara : if you had untied me when you first walked in instead of savoring in my bondage , this would n't have happened . emily : no , no , no , no . do n't blame this on me . barbara : you should have untied me ! you just made things worse ! emily : no , no , no . you are the reason we are stuck in this place -- you and nobody else . barbara : oh , emily , the eternal innocent , the eternal victim . emily : oh , god . do you have the faintest idea why we 're tied up like this ? barbara : yes , i do ! because iris is evil and greedy , and she thinks the universe revolves around her . emily : yeah , well , what does she want ? barbara : she wants every cent that i have , and she plans on letting me die in this dungeon or worse , latched to you . emily : nobody 's dying , barbara , unless , of course , i strangle you to death .

[ katie laughs ] chris : uh , excuse me . i got to go to the men 's room . did you get it ? reid : nobody at the pharmacy raised so much as an eyebrow . chris : great . thank you . reid : now i can enjoy my room - temperature beer . yummy . chris : um , reid , these antibiotics -- they need to be administered intravenously . reid : uh , syringes are in the package . chris : yeah , well , i 'm gon na need you to , uh -- inject me . reid : you 're not serious . chris : no , i do n't think i can reach the muscle myself . so meet me in the men 's room , all right ? reid : uh , dougie , that is an invitation i never expected from you . luke : you 're back . reid : uh , not quite . alison : you okay ? luke : yeah . i just think that reid 's mad at me . alison : why ? luke : because i brought up noah . alison : luke , noah was part of your life way before dr. oliver was , and he always will be , even if you and noah are n't together right now . luke : i know , but i 'm just having kind of a hard time getting reid to see that . alison : well , then , maybe reid is n't the right guy for you . reid : all right , i 'm not coming on to you , but drop your pants . chris : yeah , i 'm thinking the lower lumbar area . reid : oh , rats . fine . sure . chris : [ sighs ] what 's the matter ? reid : you need to tell katie that you 're sick . chris : will you just give me the shot ? reid : you have a serious , potentially lethal disease . chris : i 'm aware of that . reid : katie 's just barely recovering from losing her husband . you ca n't wait and spring this on her if your condition gets worse . chris : when did you become the voice of conscience ? reid : believe me , this is way outside my comfort zone . but i care about katie . she 's a very special person . that 's not easy for me to say about anyone . chris : yeah , you 're right . she 's one in a million . so will you just do this ? reid : hey , you came to me for help . this is me helping . chris : yes , and i need antibiotics , not advice . just do it . reid : point taken . [ chris groans ] luke : so , it 's not a consultation ? reid : not if i can help it . luke : chris , are you okay ? chris : yeah , yeah . i 'm just , you know , worried about that patient , so -- reid : all right . let 's not turn a visit to the men 's room into a social occasion . shall we ? chris : i will when the time is right ? reid : no , tonight . casey : how about another glass of wine ? katie : i think i 'm just gon na pick up jacob and go home . alison : no , katie . give it a chance . katie : the same thing is happening all over again . you saw him . the minute chris gets near me , he gets all distracted and weird . casey : i still say it 's just nerves or something . chris wants to be with you . i know it . i know it for a fact .

[ susan laughs ] rick : tired ? susan : exhausted , and i still have rounds to make . rick : well , i 'll give you a back rub later . any word on bob ? susan : um , yes , and it 's not good . i just spoke with ben . the increased brain activity seems to have leveled off . rick : well , what 's ben 's prognosis ? susan : bob could be in that coma for a lot longer than anybody thought . rick : oh , dear , i 'm so sorry to hear that . i 'm so sorry for everyone . bob is a great man . susan : i should get back to work . rick : hey , wait a minute . this is about us , is n't it ? susan : please , rick , not now . rick : no , you 're angry at me for having an argument with alison , right ? susan : i know she pushes your buttons . rick : susan , i am trying , i really am , but alison is determined to think the worst of me . she and emily , they 're not going to quit until you think the worst of me , too . susan : that 's not true . rick : of course it is . we both feel it . susan : i do n't think you appreciate what a hard place this is for me . rick : all right , susan -- susan : with you pulling in one direction and my kids in the other . rick : susan , we have to put an end to this , once and for all . and there 's only one way to do it -- you have to decide who you want in your life , me or your daughters . [ scene_break ] john : so you say you think this girl is working for someone ? marshall : someone who 's hatched a plan to ruin me . i do n't know why , but they 're trying to use my dna to do it . john : who would want to get you that badly ? marshall : you ca n't repeat this to anyone , john . john : that goes both ways , you know . they find out i 'm sharing patient information with you , i 've got a severe problem on my hands . marshall : understood . it 's bonnie mckechnie . she never got over the rape trial , she wants revenge , and she will use this child to get it . john : so you think it was bonnie that stole your toothbrush ? marshall : yes . now , maybe she thinks she can use it to manufacture evidence to set me up as some sort of repeat offender . i do n't know . but bonnie 's up to something . why else would she go through so much trouble to get a sample of my dna ? [ scene_break ] jessica : you ca n't keep this information from marshall . bonnie : oh , i can , and i will . jessica : bonnie , it 's wrong . bonnie : it 's wrong to have sarah anywhere near marshall . jessica : sarah is his child . bonnie : by a fluke of biology , mom . jessica : he needs to know , bonnie . bonnie : why ? ! so he can do what he does best -- destroy people 's lives ? ! because that is exactly what he does , mom ! he destroys lives ! you -- you of all people should know that better than anybody ! jessica : no , you know what i know ? i know what it means to have a child in your life , and i will not deprive anyone of that experience , not even marshall travers . look , bonnie , you are -- your heart 's in the right place , honey , but your logic is all wrong . now , marshall has to hear the truth . if not from you , from me -- right now . [ scene_break ] emily : you can not be serious . hal : emily , it all depends on how much susan knows . emily : hal , my mother could never look us in the eyes if she were covering for rick . alison : let alone drop off an anniversary gift . hal : i hear you , but the longer this goes on , the more we have to wonder what susan knew and when susan knew it . emily : you know , the hardest thing about all of this is realizing how lonely my mother must have been to hook up with a guy like rick in the first place . alison : well , she probably just bought his lies because she 's totally alone again . chris : hal , how do we use what alison knows about that night ? hal : maybe we can get a search warrant . if we can find something in that house that incriminates decker , we can get susan off the hook . chris : let 's do it . hal : i 'm gon na need alison to come down to the station with me . chris : all right . i 'm coming , too . hal : we 'll ride together ? emily : no , uh -- i 've got to take care of something first . hal : that sounds important . do you want some help ? emily : no , thanks . i 've got to do this on my own . [ scene_break ] rick : i do n't want to have a fight , not -- not here of all places . susan : good , because i 'm not about to choose between you or my children , and it 's not fair of you to ask . rick : well , what options do we have ? they 're not gon na let go of this , and i just do n't think that i can do it anymore . susan : do what ? rick : feel like a stranger in my own home , in my own life . susan : rick , i ca n't shut my children out of my life . motherhood , like it or not , is forever . rick : i thought marriage was forever . i 'm sorry . i -- i did n't mean to be hurtful . susan : it 's not you , it 's this situation . it 's -- its put unspeakable pressure on all of us , and all we can do is live our lives and try to show the rest of the world we have nothing to hide . rick : you know , i think you 're the strongest woman i know . susan : i 'm not strong . i 'm just stubborn . i 'm not about to give up the man of my dreams to -- to a lot of hospital gossip and half - baked theories from small - town cops . rick : do you really -- do you really believe that much in me ? susan : i believe in us . we ca n't let this situation rob us of our future or me of my kids . i wo n't let it happen . rick : you do n't know how much i needed to hear that . [ pager beeps ] uh -- see you for coffee later ? susan : i 'll page you . i love you . nurse : you have a call at the desk , dr. stewart . susan : oh , thank you , melissa . dr. stewart . emily : hey , mom , it 's me . listen , i know you were just here , but we need to talk . susan : emily , i 'm working . emily : i know . ca n't you find someone to cover for you ? it 's important . susan : if this is about rick -- i do n't want to be in the middle anymore . if you have something on your mind , talk to hal , talk to your sister . i ca n't take sides . i just told the same thing to rick . emily : and i understand that . susan : well , good . if you want to play detective or say bad things about rick , just do it with somebody else . emily : all right , look , mother , i love you . i 'm not grand - standing here , but this can not wait . you need to get over here as soon as you can . [ scene_break ] marshall : i 've seen some bizarre cases in my career , john . there does n't have to be a shred of truth in any charge , just enough innuendo or bad press , and a person 's career or reputation is ruined for life . john : and you think that it 's bonnie that 's out to ruin you like this ? marshall : the dna information was gained illegally . a judge wo n't look at it , and she knows that . but she also knows that because i was on trial before , she can probably drum up some bad publicity . john : you 're making an awful lot of assumptions . marshall : maybe , but i ca n't sit around and wait for her to strike . i was accused of rape , john . it wo n't take much to get the press ' attention . john : i just think it 's a long shot that bonnie is -- nurse : excuse me , dr. dixon , but records just sent the updated file on sarah smith . john : thank you , thank you , thank you . marshall : john , if there 's anything in there that ties this child to the stunt bonnie pulled , i have to know , and i wo n't stop until i learn everything there is to know about this sarah smith . [ scene_break ] jessica : bonnie , why do you keep putting me in this position over and over again ? i am not trying to run your life , and you are too old for me to have to remind you the difference between right and wrong . bonnie : well , i 'm sorry if sarah 's safety inconveniences you . jessica : i am just trying to get you to see the big picture here . there are rules , there are laws for a reason . bonnie : your rules and your laws , they did n't keep marshall behind bars where he belongs , did they , mom ? jessica : that still does n't give you the right to ignore them . what you 're doing is illegal . it 's unethical . bonnie : oh , so i 'm supposed to be ethical when you and i both know marshall has no ethics whatsoever . jessica : so what makes you better than him right now at this moment ? bonnie : are you comparing me to the man that raped you ? jessica : no , sweetheart , i am not comparing you . i am just trying to get you to see that you are better than he is ! bonnie : well , maybe i ca n't afford to be if it means compromising sarah 's safety . jessica : should n't sarah have a say in this matter ? bonnie : no , no . jessica : bonnie -- bonnie : she 's a kid , she 's vulnerable , and all marshall 's gon na try to do is charm or buy his way into her life . and you know what ? it may work for awhile , but sooner or later , that real person 's gon na come out , and it 's gon na be sarah who gets hurt . jessica : right now , all i know is that for you to keep this information from either marshall or sarah is wrong on every standard of human decency . now , i know you are too emotionally involved to see that , so i have to see that for you . bonnie : wait a minute . wait a minute . who are you calling ? jessica : i 'm calling marshall . bonnie : no , mom , you ca n't ! if you tell marshall he is sarah 's father , i will never forgive you ! jessica : bonnie , that 's just the risk i 'm gon na have to take . bonnie : really ? so how will it feel to give marshall his daughter back , only to lose yours ? jessica : are you blackmailing me ? bonnie : no . i 'm just trying to be honest with you . if you ca n't support me on this , how can we ever be close again ? jessica : sweetheart , i -- i ca n't support your acting in such a destructive way . bonnie : letting marshall know the truth is destructive for sarah . jessica : and when the truth comes out anyway ? bonnie : it wo n't . jessica : how do you know ? marshall 's already wary of you . if he starts snooping around , he could find out about -- bonnie : mom , he wo n't find out anything unless you tell him . jessica : okay , let 's say i keep your secret , and dr. daniels keeps your secret , and isaac keeps your secret and the genetics lab keeps your secret . marshall could start digging around and find out anyway and find out that you already had this information . and he could come after you , bonnie , and i know how ugly that man can get when he 's out of control , and i am not gon na let that happen -- not to my daughter . [ scene_break ] john : now , listen . marshall , i ca n't open up this girl 's entire file to you . with these new laws , i should n't even be giving you her name . marshall : john , i am very familiar with the new emphasis on privacy issues , but i 'm also very familiar with client - attorney privilege . and i 'm not adverse to repaying favors any way possible . john : i do n't even know if any of this information is gon na be useful to you . marshall : well , let me be the judge of that . hey , john , i -- i 've got to know everything there is to know about this child , or i 'm at bonnie 's mercy . john : you told me that you were interested in her biological parents , and there 's nothing in here about that . marshall : well , what is in that file ? john : okay , okay , take it easy . all right , for what it 's worth , walker daniels was treating her for leishmaniasis . marshall : well , what is that ? john : well , it 's a rather rare , infectious disease that 's carried by sand flies , but that 's in mostly tropical countries . you know ? marshall : like what ? where ? john : like the sudan , like india -- brazil . marshall : brazil ? you 're sure ? john : yeah , it looks like she was from brazil . she is from brazil , but she must have contracted it down there before she came to the states .

[ scene_break ] barbara : honey , what are you doing here ? jennifer : jack and carly were christening rosanna 's baby . the one she adopted with craig . barbara : oh , god , jen , why would you put yourself through that ? jennifer : because -- because both babies , rosanna 's and mine , both of them were born at virtually the same time . both preemies . and i just felt like there was this connection that no one else can understand . i know what this must sound like . i know you must think i 'm out of my mind . barbara : no . i think that you 're a woman filled with grief , and you 're trying to deal with it . jennifer : it 's so strange . i was standing on the other side of that door . inside , a baby was crying . and i knew . i knew right here that i was hearing my child . barbara : jennifer , that 's not possible . because , your baby died . jennifer : then how do you explain what i felt in my heart ? what i feel in my whole body ? barbara : because i think you are desperately trying to believe this . jen , c 'm on , honey . let me take you home , okay ? we can talk about things there . jennifer : no . i do n't want to go home . i want to stay here . barbara : and do what ? nobody 's here . everyone 's gone . jennifer : when i heard that cry , i felt such joy , such hope . and that 's all i want . i just want to feel that again . i just want to feel that hope again . and this is the only place that i 'll have a chance to . do n't you see that ?

alison and chris discovered a puzzle box , which alison managed to open , revealing a small key . they deduced that it is the key to a bank safe deposit box , and alison was convinced they will be able to get into the box . when susan told rick that she could n't believe him anymore , he told her he had a psychiatric disorder , and said he had been having a panic attack in the bathroom the night that alison came for her things . he convinced her to go with him to a florida clinic , where he can receive `` treatment . `` craig is hesitant to agree to adoption , saying he felt that he had failed bryant , and did n't want to fail another one . he also wondered why rosanna was in such a hurry for a child , and was upset that he felt that she shared more of her feelings with others , like paul . she insisted that she simply wanted to share a child with the man she loves ; he finally agreed to check into adoption . marshall discovered that zara 's casket was full of nothing but sandbags . when he promised not to go after bonnie if jessica was truthful , she admitted that sarah was his daughter . when bonnie could n't convince isaac to leave the country immediately with sarah and her , she decided to go without him . isaac told jessica about bonnie 's escape plans , but did n't know that marshall was in the next room . marshall , jessica , and isaac raced to the shelter , and marshall announced that bonnie was not going anywhere with his daughter . in australia , mike arrived at the frasier farm . he found simon 's letter , half - burned , then was held at gunpoint by a stranger , who said katie had been there , but had left . mike suspected otherwise , but agreed to have a beer with the man . just as he tried to call margo , he passed out , realizing on the way down that he had been drugged . when he came to , he heard the man on the phone , telling someone to tell simon they had his wife .

[ scene_break ] susan : alison has had some problems . she 's made some mistakes , but she 's paid for them . so do n't start with the sweeping generalizations about her character . i ca n't allow you to insult my kid like that . rick : i 'm sorry . obviously , everything you 've warned me about -- all the pressure , it 's getting to me . i mean , think about it , susan . just in the past few months , i 've been accused of murder , taken off cases , interrogated , investigated . so if i 'm a little suspicious about alison and chris , it 's because i 've been under constant attack . susan : i know it 's hard , but you ca n't lose your perspective . not everybody is out to hurt you . rick : no , no , no . i 'm sorry , but alison is unpredictable , and it 's obvious that she still does n't trust me . and i have to confront her in person . susan : where are you going ? rick : i 'm going to the hospital to ask alison about that key . now listen , i know that may not sit well with you , but my life , my career could be at stake . [ scene_break ] rose : i got no reason to make dusty jealous . i do n't know where you 're coming up with this idea . paul : experience . jennifer : uh , paul ? you need anything ? i 'm gon na make a run . paul : nope . i do n't need anything . jennifer : uh , i 'll call you about the auction . rose : yes . thank you for getting on board . i appreciate that . paul : now look what you did . you scared away my little sister . rose : i should 've done this over the phone . i 'm sorry . paul : yeah , you know what ? i do n't know why you did n't do that . rose : because -- lily -- she wanted you involved and jen . and i thought if i came over in person -- paul : you thought what ? rose : that maybe -- paul : i would be so touched by that that i would forgive you for everything that you did to me ? rose : i do n't care about forgiveness . 'cause you 're not gon na give it to me . that 's your choice . but i 'm thinking maybe we could start over . paul : as what ? rose : do n't you remember ? we were friends . we were such good friends . i was hoping that maybe i could get my friends back , nothing more than that . paul : you have a new friend now . is dusty not enough for you ? rose : i should n't have done this . you know what ? i did -- i did come here for another reason . paul : oh , really ? tell me why . rose : 'cause i was hoping maybe i could get a glimpse of the paul that i knew . that great guy who i fell in love with , that i wanted to spend my life with . but that guy is -- he 's not coming back . he 's dead . paul : that 's true . rose : is he dead ? paul : yes . rose : and he 's not coming back ? paul : you 're absolutely right . but do n't -- do n't comfort yourself thinking that he died of natural causes . 'cause he was murdered by my fiancée and my best man . [ scene_break ] dusty : good ? inspector : yeah , thank you . rosanna : excuse me ; what does paul ryan have to do with anything i just said ? dusty : paul ryan dislikes me . i hear you are friendly with him . i think that perhaps he encouraged you to put the squeeze on me . rosanna : ah , and from whom did you hear that i was friendly with him ? dusty : my partner . that guy you 're married to . rosanna : well , let 's get one thing clear . i am not trying to put -- as you so aptly put it -- the squeeze on you . i 'm trying to have a conversation with you . we are having an understanding , i hope . dusty : still kind of feels like a squeeze to me , i got to tell you . rosanna : well , what do you expect ? i come in here . i find you bribing a public official . you expect me to just ignore that ? dusty : can the two of us find a way to get along , or what ? rosanna : i do n't know . do you really want to get along with me ? well , lovely , then i suppose that there is something you could do . dusty : what 's that ? rosanna : you could leave paul ryan alone . i know you and craig both hate him . i do n't want you ganging up on him . dusty : and why does it concern you ? rosanna : because i told you , craig and i do n't need any enemies , particularly at this time . dusty : hmm . you sure that 's all it is ? rosanna : yes , positive . i 'm sorry . is there a problem ? dusty : yeah , i guess i 'm having a problem understanding this position you 're taking as paul 's personal guardian angel . and i think your husband might have a problem with it , too . rosanna : no , i do n't think so . i think my husband knows that paul means nothing to me . he is nothing more than a casual acquaintance at best . dusty : that 's really interesting . 'cause craig did n't tell me it was that casual when he walked into the lakeview lounge , and he saw you and paul locked up in a clinch . rosanna : and my husband told you this ? dusty : yeah . he did . and now you 're asking me to lay off paul , at the same time you 're adopting a baby with my partner . you see the position i 'm in ? it 's hard for me to tell whose side you 're on .

rosanna saw dusty bribing the building inspector , and warned him that any shady dealings of his could jeopardize her chances of adopting a child with craig . dusty wondered if paul put her up to the warning , but she insisted that was n't the case . he promised to keep his business dealings clean . meanwhile , rose visited paul and jen , asking them to participate in her charity bachelor auction . jen agreed , but paul said no way . paul wondered if rose was using him to make dusty jealous , and said that dusty would eventually screw up . when he did , rose would come running back to paul , but he would turn her away . she left in disgust at this changed paul , and he broke down . suddenly , the `` james `` in his head appeared , and told him that it would be easy to get revenge on dusty . rosanna interrupted this `` conversation `` with a warning to watch out for craig and dusty . jen told dusty about rose 's visit , and flirted with him as she dropped hints that rose may not be over paul . rose walked in just as jen threw her arms around him . as rick told susan that alison and chris had stolen the key to his safety deposit box , the young duo made plans to get into the box . chris pointed out that they could only do it if they could show that rick was dead ; alison said they could arrange that . rick confronted alison , and offered her $ 1000 for the key . when alison told susan , susan asked why alison was trying to make trouble . chris got a fake death certificate from the morgue , and they went to tom 's office to use his notary stamp , but tom caught them . bob continued to have problems , and went into arrest .

[ scene_break ] holden : now for the really tough part . lily : thanks . holden : you can not feel guilty about this . lily : i 'll try not to . emma -- holden : no , my mother -- she can hold her own , even in the worst of circumstances . you know that . lily : yes , i do . thanks , holden . thanks for helping me sort this out . holden : sure . anytime . lily : i used to think that -- which i could talk to you about anything , anytime . holden : well , you know , i think we should get back to treating each other with respect . i think it would be good for us . it 'd be good for the kids , too . lily : then let 's do it . i mean , there 's no reason that we ca n't treat each other like human beings -- maybe even are friends . natalie : you 're back ! lily : hey ! holden : hey , buddy . lily : hi . holden : aah ! faith : can you fix something to eat ? we have n't had lunch yet . lily : well , actually , i have n't eaten either . i 'm starving . would you like to stay for lunch ? holden : yeah , sure . how 'bout i fire up the grill and we 'll cook some hamburgers and hot dogs ? how does that sound ? natalie : yeah ! holden : is that good ? lily : yay ! holden : yah ! ahhh !

[ meg giggles ] [ meg laughs ] meg : what did you want to talk to me about ? paul : i love you . [ next_on ] jack : everybody ready ? parker : for what ? jack : the car wash . liberty : you never told me what dad said about me seeing parker . janet : oh , do n't worry about it . liberty : mom , you did n't tell him . brad : okay , do n't you think we should at least try to keep them from having sex instead of encouraging them ? janet : i am not encouraging them ! paul : what 's going on ? derek : your wife ran into some distress at the hospital . paul : distress ? what kind of distress ? meg : it was nothing . really , i 'm fine . derek : yeah , well , i 'd still keep an eye on her , though . you would n't want anything bad to happen to her .
meg is planning a surprise for paul , but he is a bit preoccupied when he sees emily 's front - page story on the farm project . emily is pleased with herself , as casey tells her that his mother actually invited her for dinner , but emily thinks it is n't a good idea since inherently they all do n't like each other so why push it . margo finds dani looking through her files and is none to happy . derek tells paul that he misrepresented himself when he borrowed the money and he wants it back now . holden does n't want to help lily out when her babysitter backs out because she is going to lunch with mike ; a fight ensues , as the kids hear it . dani tries to explain that she has authorization to be there , but margo orders her out . emma helps meg plan her surprise , as she deals with morning sickness . paul and derek do n't agree and paul pleads with him to let him make a profit , but derek wo n't hear of it and tells him that he owes him his money now or else . when holden and lily see how the children react to their fighting , they apologize to one another , and holden offers to stay with the children while she goes out with mike . dani complains to casey and emily about margo , as casey promises to help ; casey goes to his dad , who thinks that dani should be allowed at the station and agrees to talk with margo . lily is frazzled when she meets mike and he starts to question if she is there to make holden jealous ; he wonders if she is using him ; lily promises that she is not doing that . paul comes looking for lily , but he finds holden instead , who is more then happy to send paul to the lakeview looking for lily . tom speaks with margo about dani , who is not pleased to hear casey did emily and dani 's bidding for them . faith pretends that the fighting only upsets natalie and ethan , but she asks holden to try to get along with her mom from now on . paul finds lily and asks her to float him the loan , as she offered to do so before . lily needs to think about it , as mike is unsure what to tell her so lily needs to find someone who can work through this with her . a furious margo goes to see casey , emily and dani and lets her opinion be known on what she thought of their tactics . when things turn personal , emily kicks margo out . margo tells dani she is not welcome in her station , as she leaves . emily makes a call because of this . lily talks with holden about the project and giving paul money and he advises her against it in the end even though they considered all their options . paul tells barbara that he thinks lily can bail him out , but a call from lily soon proves he was wrong about that assumption . paul realizes he is out of options , but is worried about what this will do to meg because he gave her his word . meg worries about if it is too soon to tell paul about the baby because what if something happens . emma advises her to rely and depend on her husband and to share all things with him . lily asks holden to stay for lunch , as the kids are thrilled to see this . emily , dani and the mayor show up at the station and margo is ‘forced ' to allow dani to work there . casey wonders about emily 's relationship with the mayor after he sees how much clout she had with him . he realizes he was probably her client , but emily wo n't say . margo tells tom what happened , who is surprised to see emily has that much clout with the mayor ; this leads margo to wonder what emily has done to get that close with the mayor . paul prepares to tell meg the truth when she beats him to the punch and surprises him with news that she is pregnant . paul is very emotional , as he reacts to the thrilling news ; he makes a split decision not to tell meg what has happened .

paul demanded to know dusty 's intentions toward jen , then taunted dusty and rose . dusty got angry , and started to manhandle paul . rose called the police , fearing one of them would get hurt . margo arrived , but dusty convinced her to let them off with a warning . dusty was angry that rose did n't stand up for him to margo , but agreed to keep jen away from the grand opening . the `` james `` in paul 's head continued trying to convince him to get revenge on dusty . bob was only able to communicate by blinking , but still managed to tell hal that rick is the killer . as hal searched for rick , rick made plans to meet susan at a remote motel , saying he was having another panic attack . alison talked her way into getting into rick 's safety deposit box . inside , she found a gun , nurse krebs 's diary , a vial and syringe , and small souvenirs from each of the victims . just as chris realized that alison had left the hospital without him , rick arrived at the bank , and was stunned to hear that his `` daughter `` was there looking through the box . he asked to be taken to her . craig tried to tell rosanna that he did n't want another child , but could n't bring himself to break her heart . however , the visiting social worker informed them that , despite rosanna 's impeccable credentials , craig would never be allowed to adopt .

[ scene_break ] lucinda : i -- i have a rather a lot of -- acquaintance with hospitals . maybe i should watch my step . what makes this one different ? bev : well , this place , they do an extremely detailed work - up . then they set a course of treatment that could involve anything from oxygen or metabolic therapies , hyperthermia , detoxification or nutritional therapies . they 're all designed to inhibit the cancer and to stimulate healing . lucinda : inhibit the cancer ? i 've read about that . i know that , i mean , keep the cancer cells asleep or whatever . but it -- no , it 's too nice . too simplistic . bev : well , my experience may not be every patient 's experience , but after my first stay at the clinic i -- i felt better . i know my body pretty well . and i swear to you that i could feel the tumors shrinking . i know i looked better . and my energy was back . lucinda : of course , i 've had a lumpectomy and a clear margin . darling , you 're so -- you 're so young . and who 's to say that you would n't have just self- healed anyway ? bev : no one . and -- and maybe the traditional approach , the chemo and the radiation , is right for you . i know it 's what meg would recommend . but it was n't for me . i just -- i could n't face the side effects . [ scene_break ] lily : the doctors have given mother a very good prognosis . they got the mass , the margins are clear and the chemo is just to make sure they catch anything they missed . i think this meltdown that mother had is more about losing control than about fear of the cancer . we just ha to expect we 're going to have good days and bad days and just help her through them . sierra : right . well , maybe this massage today will help . we should get going , see how she 's doing . lily : you know , before we go , can i ask you a question ? have you had a mammogram recently ? sierra : well , to tell you the truth , i 've never had one . lily : really ? sierra : my doctor in montega thought that it was n't necessary at my age . lily : well , my doctor here says i should start getting them regularly . i thought maybe the two of us could go together for an appointment . sierra : i 'd like that . lily : and it 's good for our health , but we 'll also be supporting mother . sierra : right . right . you know , lily , i do n't say it that often , but i love you . i 'm really glad we 're in this together . lily : i love you , too . lily : she 's going to be all right , our mom . just believe it . – [ scene_break ] dusty : let 's talk about last night . meg : oh , you 're not going to lecture me on my cooking , are you ? dusty : who 's cooking ? meg : okay , thanks to you , we actually had dinner . which i enjoyed very much . dusty : me , too . i did , too . uh , you and i are in a different place . you know ? you want -- i 'm not gon na tell you what you want , but i definitely do n't want a relationship . you know , i do n't have time for it . meg : so this little speech to your employees about how it 's just a job , not life -- dusty : well that 's the difference between being an employee and being a boss . meg : you 're absolutely right . and i do admire the fact that you 've made a commitment to street jeans and that you 're working so hard to make it a success . dusty : it 's awfully tricky not knowing when jen 's gon na come in . i on the phone with all these nervous buyers . meg : a lot of hand holding ? dusty : yeah , about ten hours of it a day . meg : i understand . dusty : do you ? meg : yeah . dusty : that 's good because i like you . i do n't want to disappoint you . meg : well , i like you , too . and you 're right , you do n't have time for a relationship . and if you did , i 'd have to say no .
