[ scene_break ] ford : you think i care about tess ? james : no , not like that , but it kind of sounds like that . ford : did you not just hear what i said about everything that she 's been through ? our dad was an abusive creep , but can you imagine if he 'd been a total pervert ? james : no . you 're right . it 's horrible . ford : you got ta care about somebody who 's been through hell like that , right ? you got ta admire the fact that she 's survived what she 's survived , no matter how she had to do it . but that 's not the same as loving her or caring for her the way i ... it 's not like what i felt for langston . james : yeah . i 'm sorry about that . ford : me too . james : if it were n't for tess , you guys would be together , and now she 's in l.a. with markko . ford : she 's what ?

[ scene_break ] ford : langston 's gone ? she 's in l.a. ? james : i thought you knew . she did n't say good - bye or anything ? ford : no , nothing . james : man , that sucks , leaving you hanging like that . ford : well , it was over . i did that . james : because of tess . ford : no , because of me . i 'd hoped i 'd get another shot someday . james : dude , go after her . ford : i ca n't , not in the middle of a custody hearing . i need to be here . i chose my son , and ... tess .

suspicion surrounds tomas for the shooting of todd . john tells bo that he believes tomas did it although he 's come to a dead end and asks if bo can check out some leads . dani and nate find it odd that they see tomas alone in todd 's hospital room and when he leaves , they notice a syringe on the floor that the hospital does not use and is not familiar with . tomas is on the phone to his contact acting like he knows all about todd 's shooting and wants to cover his tracks . blair takes jack to capricorn to get him to do some work to learn responsibility and know that he is grounded until he changes his attitude and apologizes to shane . she leaves her son alone in the bar . and right away , men come out of nowhere to assault jack and inform him that they are there on behalf of shane morasco and wo nt let jack hurt him again . when they leave and blair returns , tomas comes out of nowhere , appearing suspicious . jack suspects shane for what happened to him . but suspicion surrounds tomas for the unsolved case of who shot todd . john and bo both believe tomas might have done it although they can not prove it . dani and nate go to see todd while he 's still unconscious and discover tomas , strangely there alone beside todd 's hospital bed . and as soon as he leaves them alone in the room , they notice a syringe on the floor that the hospital staff say they do not use . marty tells kelly that she and john do not have a future and behaves as if she ( marty ) has some sort of `` hold `` on john . marty then reveals that she knows that natalie did not get pregnant by brody and it is in fact , john who is her baby 's father .

[ scene_break ] ford : you ... you think you know who i was with last night ? layla : come on , ford . all those pizza deliveries in the middle of the night and that cute delivery girl who follows you to the bedroom so you can `` make change `` ? cristian : there have been an awful lot of leftover pizza slices in the fridge . ford : that 's who you think i was with last night ? the pizza delivery girl ? ha ha ha . layla : so then who was it ? ford : oh , boy . [ scene_break ] viki : honey , this ticket to the prom that you tore up ? what happened ? jessica : i do n't want to go anymore . i was hoping that cristian would ask me -- that he 'd remember what it meant to us . viki : well , darling , that 's when you were both back in high school . jessica : i know it was back when we were in high school , but i 'm in school again and he 's there , too . viki : no , he 's a teacher now , honey . jessica : he 's going , mom . i was there when he got his tickets . viki : cristian 's going to the prom ? jessica : well , he 's chaperoning , but -- and they said that he could bring a date , and he could 've asked me . it would 've been perfect , but he did n't . viki : so this ticket that you have . jessica : well , i bought it because i thought i 'd go by myself , but i do n't want to go and watch him dance with layla to our song , so i tore it up . viki : well , that 's a shame . because i think you should go .

[ scene_break ] marty : he wanted to come to the hospital . of course , i told him not to because ... i ca n't take one look at him . i 'd fall apart . you know , he ... loves that little hope and he was -- [ marty sighs ] marty : you know , he does n't have any brothers and sisters so he -- [ marty sighs ] john : did he mention who told him that you were in the hospital ? [ marty sighs ] marty : he did n't know . he did n't know until i called him . the nurse ... must 've made a mistake . he was n't the one who called earlier . [ scene_break ] kelly : no , no , no , you do n't get to do that and share my office . did john know what , todd ? todd : did he know whether the baby 's a boy or a girl . kelly : he did n't say . todd : but he 's with marty right now . he said that he went to see her right after he got home last night ? kelly : why do you care what he 's doing ? todd : i do n't care what he 's doing . i 'm just thinking about you . i 'm thinking ... he does n't have it all going on upstairs , you know . he 's thinking about other things . he 's thinking about babies , thinking about bassinets and booties and stuff . i think you need someone who 's totally focused on whatever happened to your mom . kelly : thank you very much for caring , todd , but i think john has it well in hand . he questioned a guy that we ran into at the sanitarium -- rodney . it turns out -- todd : what 'd he say ? kelly : not much . he 's mute . so john thinks -- todd : a mute ? a guy who ca n't talk called you on the phone ? maybe he killed her . kelly : you know what ? cut it out . john is gon na get to the bottom of this . you 'll see . he always gets his man . [ scene_break ] natalie : look , i know i 'm impulsive and i do a lot of crazy things . i mean , i 'm the one who showed up at a funeral in a flaming red dress , but that does not mean that i would push marty down a flight of stairs . and the fact that john does n't know that -- brody : if marty says she saw you ... natalie : you know what ? fine . come and cuff me . take me downtown . save john the trip . brody : all i 'm saying is that john has an obligation to question you and that 's all it is . he did n't book you and i 'm not going to , either . natalie : why ? brody : because i do n't think you did it . natalie : you believe me ? brody : hey . all right , you ... you told marty off , and yeah , maybe it was a little harsh , but you laid it out . you did n't need to push her . natalie : thank you . you know , it 's really funny -- neither one of us would be here right now if we did n't love jessica so much . yet somehow , you seem to believe me , and john , the man i thought i was gon na spend the rest of my life with ... why ca n't he see that i 'm innocent ? [ scene_break ] john : we 'll find out who did this . i promise . marty : we know who did it . john : there 's no evidence natalie pushed you and without that , we ca n't make an arrest . marty : if it was n't your ex ... would you see it the same way ? or are you protecting her ? marty : this is not me being jealous . she stabbed mitch laurence , and you covered for her . you made sure she got away with it . [ john sighs ] john : this is different . marty : no . it 's still natalie . john : this is about you . you 're all i care about . i 'm not covering for anyone . i could have lost you . marty : that matters to you ? john : yes , it matters to me . marty : just checking . john : we 're going to find who did this , i promise you . marty : even if it 's natalie ? john : even natalie . [ scene_break ] natalie : i thought john knew me better than anyone in this world . i thought we had this ... this special connection , but obviously not , not if he thinks that i would kill his baby so that i could get my claws into him . brody : you have to remember , john 's a cop . natalie : he 's my friend . brody : which is why he has to lean on procedure . he does n't trust himself . so he asks you the questions he needs to ask , and he takes note of your response , and that 's all it is . and the fact that he has n't pursued this should tell you something . natalie : i saw how he went after jared . he 's not gon na stop , not until he destroys what little we have left . [ cell phone rings ] brody : hey , john . how 's it going ? john : hey , brody , can you come down to the hospital and take a statement from marty ? brody : i 'm on it . natalie : it 's john ? brody : i got to get going . my shift 's starting , and he wants me to take marty 's statement . natalie : well , we know what she 's gon na say . should i get a lawyer ? [ scene_break ] kelly : so the sanitarium 's administrator kept insisting my mother died of natural causes , whatever that means . did n't seem to be hiding anything , but -- oh ! and we discovered the phone calls were coming from her office . and the only other person with a key was rodney . are you even listening ? kelly : where are you going ? todd : i 've got to take care of something . [ scene_break ] cristian : you thought i was -- layla : i 'm sorry . it 's just the way you were leading up to it , that you 'd be honored and -- cristian : well , i guess i just thought it was lame that i was asking you to a high school prom . layla : it 'll be fun . cristian : so you 'll go with me ? layla : that depends . will jessica be there ? [ scene_break ] viki : sweetheart , this prom is obviously very important to you . you 've been talking about it ever since you got out of the hospital , and marty thinks that it 's significant . jessica : well , did marty also tell you that she blames me for being in this time warp , that she thinks somehow i want to be here ? viki : i do n't -- i do n't think she put it exactly like that , but yes , she did mention that she thinks this was obviously a very important time in your life , you know ? so what can i say ? there you are . and if the prom is that important , then you should see it through . jessica : wh -- by myself ? i 'll look like an idiot . viki : you know , darling , just because cristian is n't available does n't mean you ca n't take somebody else . [ scene_break ] brody : natalie , let 's not get ahead of ourselves . i promise i will give you a heads up if it comes to that . natalie : thank you . thanks for everything . well ...

[ scene_break ] langston : starr , when have i ever lied to you ? starr : for months after your parents died and i kept asking you what was wrong ? langston : yeah , but that was different . i was afraid that if somebody found out , i 'd be sent to foster care , i 'd lose everything . starr : and what if someone found out that you were still cheating and that you were still lying to us ? you do n't think that you would lose markko and living here and cole 's friendship ? langston : and you ? would i lose you ? starr : no , you would never lose me ! that 's the point i 'm trying to make . look , i know that you 're under a lot of pressure with the musical and with ford and -- i know you . i know that it 's tearing you up . langston : it 's been hard . starr : i know , and that 's why it 's so easy to slip . lang , was that you at the hotel ? langston : no . starr : you swear ? you swear on our friendship ?

[ scene_break ] jessica : i have to get ready for school . but is it okay if i stay here at dad 's for a little while longer ? viki : yes , sweetheart , you stay as long as you feel you need to . just be aware that at some point we 're going to have to make a decision about bree , okay ? honey , she 's fine , all right ? she 's fine . she 's happy to be home . lois is spoiling her rotten , and you do n't need to worry about her , okay ? jessica : what if i never remember ? viki : let 's not get ahead of ourselves here , okay ? we 'll cross that bridge if we come to it . but i want to you know that whatever happens , darling , we will make it work . jessica : you promise ? viki : yes , i promise . you know , sweetheart , i will always be there for you , and so will your father , okay ? the future , it 's full of possibilities . you never know what can happen . all righty ? i love you , baby . just do me a favor . think about the prom , okay ? i feel you should go . [ scene_break ] cristian : who did you go to prom with ? layla : taylor richards asked me . he played varsity basketball , and half the girls in school were in love with him . but then i got strep throat , and i had to stay home . it was one of the worst nights of my life . cristian : so this is good . this is like a second chance at prom . layla : you 're right . yeah . cristian : and i 'm gon na make sure it 's the best night of your life . [ scene_break ] markko : i know i mentioned it last night , but do n't say anything to langston about me getting that room for us at the palace , not that you 'd have any reason to talk to her , but just in case . i want it to be a surprise . ford : i wo n't say a word , as long as you do n't mention the fact that i used alfonso del toro 's reservation . markko : i wo n't say anything to anyone , except i did tell langston . she 's my girlfriend . we do n't have any secrets . [ scene_break ] langston : you want me to swear on our friendship ? starr : yes . you 've asked me to lie for you about ford , and i have . you 've asked me to keep this secret , and i have , so i want you to swear on our friendship that that was n't you last night with ford ... and that it 's over for good . langston : i swear on our friendship , i 'm done with ford . i got to get to school . [ scene_break ] kelly : ah ! rodney . [ scene_break ] marty : i do n't know what else to tell you , brody . i ran into natalie in the corridor right before i went to the stairwell . brody : how about earlier in the day ? did you talk to anyone else ? were there any problems , anything out of the ordinary ? marty : there was someone else . [ scene_break ] cole : hey , what the hell you think you 're doing ? [ scene_break ] brody : who was it ? marty : todd manning . [ scene_break ] john : do n't move !
suspicion about who pushed marty down the flight of stairs and made her lose her baby casts over both natalie and todd . after marty demands that john arrests natalie , he calls brody to take a statement from brody . natalie protests to brody that she did not do it but follows him to the hospital and the scene of the crime and makes herself look very suspicious . todd is completely distracted and calls the hospital disguising himself as cole in order to find out information about marty . langton looks suspicious to starr and cole when ford makes it clear that he was sleeping with somebody . langston wants to prove that she 's done with ford . but is she really ? jessica still ca n't get cristian out of her mind . so she does n't want to go to the prom knowing that he will take layla . viki hopes that she will get back to her life in the present but encourages her daughter to go the prom .

[ scene_break ] natalie : i 'm ok . mama 's ok . yeah . yeah . sorry . why are you here ? shaun : mcbain . i was about to call you . john : what 's up , big man ? shaun : tell him . nate : dani and i were visiting her dad and we found a syringe on the floor . dani : but the nurse did n't think it was a big deal . nate : she said it was n't the same kind that the hospital uses . shaun : todd 's doctor 's checking him out right now . so far , there are no signs that he 's been injected . john : you were on the door the whole time ? shaun : 24/7 . the only people in that room today were nurses , doctors , and approved visitors . john : anyone besides these two ? shaun : tomás delgado .

[ scene_break ] tomás : i ca n't let téa and blair slow me down . claude : but i would hate to see you lose either one of them . if they found out . tomás : as a matter of fact , detective mcbain told them i was a suspect in the shooting . true . claude : what does he have ? tomás : nothing . he found a euro at the crime scene . that could belong to anyone . claude : that 's all ? then you are clear . tomás : he knows someone was injured in the firefight . he thinks it 's me . claude : do we need to worry about this man ? tomás : mcbain 's pretty sharp . former fbi . but i covered my tracks . there 's nothing for him to find .

marcie locked al in his room to get the drugs out of his system . he started flipping out on her and finally broke down crying in her arms . flash played live at capricorn and afterwards her and joey kissed .

why are you giving paul that money ? paul : no , no , no , she 's not giving it to me . it 's a loan . look , um , there 's this really great vintage car that i 've had my eye on for a while , and the owner finally caved . kevin : well , maybe you should n't buy something you ca n't afford there , partner . paul : no , no , no , no , i know , i know . but , you know , it 's a great deal , and i could put a little work into it and turn it over for three times what i paid for it . i 'll be able to pay you back , kelly , and , yeah , thanks for helping . i 've got to go . i 'll see you later . kevin : sure . look , i know he 's your brother , but you do n't know him very well . you should n't be trusting like this . kelly : i want to . kevin : well , we all want to trust our family , but sometimes we just ca n't . look at todd . i mean the guy tries to nail me at every turn . you would n't believe what he 's up to now . kelly : not another article ? kevin : oh , no , it 's better . it 's making it look like i embezzled from buchanan enterprises . kelly : how would he do that ? kevin : well , apparently , he hired someone to hack into the main frame , and he moved $ 64,000 from the corporate account to one of our personal accounts . kelly : really ? kevin : yeah , and , you know , i should have had a better password . anybody who knows me well could have figured it out , but i 've changed it . we have a new one now , and i transferred money from our savings account back to the b.e . account . kelly : so it 's all taken care of . kevin : well , not before the damage was done . he made it look like i was stealing from the company . kelly : how do you know it was him ? kevin : well , who else would pull something like this , kelly ? look , we 've got to be at dorian 's for that thing . kelly : oh , god . kevin : i 'll meet you there , ok ? kelly : where are you going ? kevin : i 'm going to go see todd . i 'm going to settle this once and for all . kelly : i – rex : what are you doing ? r.j. : obviously , you 're no longer confident that you can make the payments , so why should we invest in you ? rex : what are you pulling here , r.j. ? r.j. : it 's my money , and without me , you 've got nothing . rex : i still have lindsay , do n't i ? lindsay : it 's not enough to fund the whole thing . r.j. : so , look , why do n't you just keep doing what you 're doing here at ultra violet . it pays the bills . i mean , hey , the big leagues are n't for everyone . now if you 'll excuse me -- rex : wait , wait , wait . you will get your money back , ok ? and then some . just wait . my place is going to be the hottest thing that hit llanview . you 'll see . man : remember this , my darling , i 'll be with you until the end of forever . nora : oh , i 'm telling you , there 's nothing like a good movie to relax you . it 's better than a case of diazepam . look at you . evangeline : i ca n't believe we just sat here and cried through that old movie . imagine if we would do that in front of a jury . nora : oh , my god , we 'd be sanctioned . evangeline : oh , god , conduct unbecoming of a court officer . tactical tears . nora : oh , would n't that be great ? i could never pull those off . i 'd be pulling out my nose hairs trying to get the tears to come out . if only i could have done that during my fights with bo . he 's such a pushover for a girl with tears . evangeline : how great that you guys are still friends ? nora : we have a trophy -- a jitterbug trophy -- between us to prove it . evangeline : how did you pull that off ? nora : well , a lot of hard work and practice . evangeline : not the dance contest . how 'd you pull off staying such good friends after the divorce ? nora : a lot of hard work and practice . and a son -- that beautiful boy matthew . love him . i 'm just sorry i could n't have stayed in new york with them and played . evangeline : but then we would n't have had this very special night together . nora : you 're right . i would n't trade my girl 's night out . i 'm so glad that we 're friends , you know , outside the courtroom , even though you are representing someone who 's lying about me . evangeline : well -- nora : did i say that out loud ? evangeline : yes , you did . harry mckenzie maintains that he was misquoted about bribing you . nora : well , guess what ? it 's a very dangerous misquote , so who misquoted him ? evangeline : i do n't know . you have anyone in mind ? nora : i do n't know . somebody who really does n't like kevin buchanan or me . adriana : i love river with all my heart and soul . i would never do anything to trick him or hurt him in any way . i hope you can believe me . cassie : well , why would n't i believe you ? dorian : cassie , for goodness ' sakes , i mean , i had d.n.a . tests done . what more proof could you want ? cassie : come on , mother , you can honestly ask me that with a straight face ? david : you know , maybe we should run the tests again . yeah , seriously . cassie : oh , come on . david : no , it 's actually a pretty good idea . we could hire a third party to oversee it and make sure it 's objective , and that way cassie and everyone else would know that the results are valid . dorian : david , i hardly think that 's necessary , really . adriana has accepted that i am her mother . why ca n't you ? cassie : well , maybe because of the 30 million she just inherited from aunt betsy . adriana : river thinks that that 's all they 're interested in , too , but trust me ; they 're not getting any of the money . i 'm giving it all to my village in puerto rico when i turn 18 . dorian : see ? it is n't at all about the money . adriana : cassie , i know this must be so strange for you to have a sister suddenly that you never even knew about . it is for me , too , but river 's told me so much about you , i feel like i already know you . cassie : i 've always wanted to have a little sister . dorian : and now you 've got one . cassie : mother , if this is another one of your lies -- i mean , this girl is really , really sweet . dorian : she is . are n't we lucky ? cassie : oh -- [ door opens ] adriana : river , look who 's here ? cassie : come here , you . come here . ohh . you do n't call me . when are you going to cut your hair ? river : whatever . you guys have met or what ?

nigel : i had hoped to discuss this in a more private setting . roxanne : yeah , well , i 've got to go talk to natalie . can i borrow you for a second ? natalie : excuse me . ok , what 's going on ? roxanne : did you rat me out with nigel after springing the lock on johnny mcbain 's door ? natalie : i told you that i would n't , did n't i ? roxanne : yeah , except he found out , and he 's about to chew me out . well , was it worth it ? did johnny like what you got him ? natalie : yes . roxanne : well , why are you here and not there ? natalie : i did n't know that he 'd be meeting with kathryn fitzgerald . roxanne : the f.b.i . babe ? i thought she left town . natalie : she 's back . roxanne : ooh , like a bad habit . natalie : look , they just work together . it 's no big deal . roxanne : yeah , so then why are you bummed out ? natalie : i 'm not . roxanne : honey , there 's plenty of chickens in the sea . i mean , look at him . come on , go hook him . natalie : oh , sorry . roxanne . wow , yeah . john : excuse me . why 'd you run off like that ? natalie : i did n't run out on you . i just did n't realize that you and kathryn were getting together . john : just business . natalie : we 're friends , john . you do n't owe me any excuses . john : look , maybe i could buy you a drink or something when it 's done , and we can talk about this . natalie : i 'm sorry , i ca n't . i 've got plans . see ya . john : see ya . kathryn : hey , we do n't have to do this now . john : no , no , we 're here now . john : so , how many counts are they facing ? evangeline : todd manning . what a surprise that you think he 's the one trying to bring you and kevin down . nora : well , you know , i would n't know for a fact unless i talked to your client , mackenzie , you know , just about this alleged bribe and how much it was supposedly worth and who was behind it . yada , yada , yada . evangeline : i would have to be there . nora : i would insist on it . evangeline : i 'll call him right now . nora : you will ? evangeline : i will . nora : that 's great . i mean , i did n't ask you over here for that favor , you know . evangeline : mm - hmm . yeah , right . nora : no . and i do n't take bribes . ice cream worked , though , huh ? evangeline : yes , it did . hello , this is evangeline williamson . may i please speak with harry mackenzie ? what ? are you sure ? nora : what 's going on ? what is it ? evangeline : he left town . no forwarding address . todd 's voice : how much did you say you needed ?

[ scene_break ] brody : okay , there 's something i do n't get . if todd came to your office complaining about cole , how did it become about the baby ? marty : because getting pregnant with john 's baby is the latest thing i 've done to ruin todd 's life . brody : i do n't follow . [ marty sighs ] todd : you came back to get to me . you want revenge . marty : because everything todd says is code for one thing -- his problems are my fault . it 's my fault he raped me . it 's my fault he tormented me . it 's my fault that he ca n't maintain a normal relationship and that his children hate him . he blames me for everything wrong in his life .

[ sniffles ] he would know in his heart that i 'm innocent . i 'm sorry for your loss . and i hope that you get the evidence soon . because the longer you consider me a suspect , the longer the real perp has to cover his tracks .

[ scene_break ] rex : all right , thank you . bye . gigi : rex . i guess i am a little jealous . rex : after you slept with brody ? gigi : i 'm just jealous that stacy was able to do something i ca n't . rex : what difference does it make where the cells came from ? you think shane cares ? he is going to live . that 's what matters . gigi : you 're right . that 's the only thing that matters . rex : he 's going to love you no matter what . gigi : yeah , because i 'm his mother . rex : he 's going to love you because you 're you . so do n't let me keep you from brody . gigi : actually , i 'm here because -- rex : no -- no . none of my business . forget it -- not anymore . do whatever the hell you want . gigi : what i want is -- i do n't want to see you hurt , rex . rex : like the man said , you do n't always get what you want . i should take these up to your sister . roxy : well , you know i was eavesdropping . but what the hell are you doing here ? gigi : i 'm here to see stacy , too , and to thank her for saving shane 's life . but mostly to try to get her to understand that his life is now going to be miserable without his mom and dad together . roxy : hey , listen , you can prostate yourself any way you want . but remember one thing , a bitch is a bitch and there 's only one way to fight them , and that 's with fire , baby .

[ scene_break ] natalie : oh , is that skin or body armor ? i think i would have been better off hitting the wall . brody : what did you punch me for ? natalie : because i am rex balsom 's sister and jessica brennan 's sister , and you screwed them both over when you hopped into the sack with gigi morasco . my god , rex went to bat for you after you shot him . i mean , you could 've gone to prison , but you did n't , thanks to him . and do n't even get me started on what you did to jessica . brody : i never wanted to hurt jessica . natalie : really ? then why did n't you keep your pants on ? she -- she just came out of st. ann 's , but she 's not 100 % better yet . and she could n't get close to anyone after her husband died -- till you . brody : it was the same with me . natalie : really ? so how the hell could you hurt her like that ? [ scene_break ] jared : where are you going ? jessica : i 'm going to stop natalie . jared : she 's just looking out for you . jessica : i know , and i appreciate that , i really do . but sometimes natalie takes looking out for me a little too far . jared : but – [ scene_break ] starr : this is n't about mr. j , cole . this is about our baby . cole : yeah , but it always comes back to him . even this , our baby , there 's this mr. j part . starr : okay , i thought we said we were n't going to fight , that we were going to try to get along so that we could find out what happened to hope . cole : i 'm sorry . i -- i 'm ... just a little on edge . is it hot in here ? starr : no , i thought they turned the air conditioning up . are you getting sick or something ? cole : no , i 'm good . it 's just -- starr : just what ? i thought you said you were n't getting high anymore , cole . was i wrong ? cole : i 'm not high , okay ? starr : then what 's wrong ? cole : nothing . starr : is it withdrawal ? cole : i 'm not an addict ! cole : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to go off on you like that . you 're probably right . i 'm just probably getting a cold or something . starr : okay -- cole : so you think the lock of hope 's hair is going to tell us what we need to know ? starr : it could tell us that , you know , if what killed her was a genetic problem . maybe you and i had the same recessive gene that was a bad thing . i do n't know . it 's worth a try . it 's better than having her exhumed . cole : we should probably get to the hospital before the lab closes .

[ scene_break ] layla : why did n't you try to track gigi down when you came back to the states ? brody : i was a kid , and stupid enough to believe my mama when she told me that gigi cut out on me with another man . let him raise my kid . so i re - upped . dorian : must have been a very difficult time for you . brody : you do n't know a damn thing about it . dorian : oh . layla : she 's here . dorian : yes , she is indeed here . adriana : hey . brody : i knew you 'd come back to me . [ scene_break ] clint : i imagine things were a little more black and white when you were commissioner . bo : i did n't always do things by the book . clint : does that mean you understand my position ? bo : i understand it . i just do n't like it .

[ marcie chuckles ] marcie : you all right ? bo : it 's been one of those days . see you later . shane : see you . let 's go see rex . marcie : i hope he knows where your mom is . shane : yeah . [ scene_break ] rex : i ca n't help it , gigi . we are friends . and when i see jared moving in on you , i ca n't help but -- gigi : he is just being nice , rex ! rex : he 's playing you ! gigi : he is not ! rex : just -- just hear me out . he got you talking about shane , right ? gigi : i talk to everybody about shane ! rex : i know . but when you talk about shane to jared , i bet he leans in real close . like he 's really listening . he looks into your eyes . he says things like , `` wow . that 's really amazing , `` in the most sincere voice . and if all that 's worked , before you even knew what was happening , he would have – [ next_on ] viki : natalie ? natalie : god , it 's my mother . gigi : do you think he 's having second thoughts about getting married ? brody : if gigi needs me as much as you say she does , why is n't she here ? cole : so what do you say -- run away with me ?
rex asks adriana to `` be nice `` to gigi . she does as he asks but gigi does n't buy it . meanwhile , dorian and layla are on their mission and have found brody lovett ( or so they hear ) , as adriana has demanded they do . he informs them that he was with gigi many years ago and has known all this while and that he conceived shane with gigi . dorian and layla inform adriana and she rushes to find brody in the hopes of `` reuniting `` him with gigi . yet , rex seems to be more interested in gigi than in his own fiancé . he is concerned about her interest in jared and protests that she is too good for the likes of him . but nobody else understands why he thinks it 's his business . clint is still ready to play hard ball with calvin jenkins . bo still disagrees . dorian is still pulling calvin 's strings to motivate him to ruin the buchanans .

kevin : well , not really , but i do . it went into one of my personal accounts , right , and then i transferred it back and i changed the password and stuff . the problem is , is that i -- i really just do n't know how it got there . jessica : but you have a theory . kevin : i think it 's todd . jessica : what ? kevin : well , you know , have seen him and margaret together more than once , you know , and they seem very cozy . jessica : well , dating cozy ? kevin : well , i think she thinks that , you know ? and it seemed like todd had her wrapped around his little finger , so i think that margaret is todd 's insider at the company . jessica : yeah , well -- kevin : what ? jessica : what you were saying about todd , i -- i saw him with -- kevin : you saw him what ? michael : paul cramer 's a medevac pilot . there 's no reason for him to be in the chief of staff 's office two and three times a day , especially in the middle of the night . shannon : tell john . i mean if the guy 's a crook , he 'll find out . michael : i do n't have any proof . that 's how i broke my leg -- trying to get some proof . shannon : you said you fell accidentally . michael : yeah , accidentally out of dr. long 's window . shannon : no wonder marcie 's so upset . impressive , michael . and here i thought you were just a big klutz . michael : you know , i think the best thing to do would be to catch him in the act . shannon : in the act of what ? michael : well , i 'm not exactly sure . you see i know he 's selling something , you know . it could be drugs or organs maybe or stem cells -- god knows . shannon : man , that 's so major . ok , so what do i do ?

shannon : ok . then what ? michael : well , when you get there , on the roof there 's -- there 's a place on the roof where you have a perfect view of the helipad . now , dr. long has no reason to be up there right now , so if you see him or anything that looks remotely , remotely suspicious , i want you to take pictures , as many pictures as you can , ok ?

no pain , no worries . natalie : i 'd like that . kevin : i 'll tell you what , kelly , this thing at work -- i mean , whoever withdrew that money from the b.e . account covered their tracks like a pro . you know , they wanted to make damn sure that i looked guilty . kelly : look , i know you think that todd did this , but you do n't have any proof . kevin : well , i 'm going to get proof , and when i do , he 's going to go back to jail , where he belongs . kelly : i just do n't think todd did this . kevin : of course he did it . he hates me . kelly : it 's not his style . besides , you hate him as much as he hates you . i think you 're letting your personal feelings color the situation . todd did n't do this . kevin : why are you defending him ?

starr is once again preparing to leave , and matthew senses something is up . they hug , and matthew asks if she 's running away . starr denies , and sends matthew away , claiming she wants to change her clothes . after he leaves , starr finishes packing , and leaves . we see her wandering the streets , as a man approaches her . kevin has found a specialist he wants to fly in to examine viki . kevin tells kelly he is sure todd is behind the money transfer , and vows to discover the truth . kelly defends todd . paul and natalie return from their helicopter trip , with natalie continuing to ask what they were delivering . paul distracts her with a kiss , and dr. long catches them up on the roof . he fires paul for his indiscretion . paul then goes to kelly , and tells her he may need more cash . kelly says that 's impossible , and paul threatens to reveal the truth about ace . kathryn delivers pictures of caitlin to john 's room , and natalie sees them . she confronts kathryn , and kathryn admits caitlin was her sister . john finds them together , and natalie asks why john did n't tell her . john warns natalie to stay away from paul , and shows her pictures of the two of them kissing by the helicopter . michael sends shannon to the roof of the hotel to spy on dr. long , and shannon also captures pictures of paul and natalie kissing . river and adriana get passionate , but stop at the last minute . a frustrated river turns to shannon , and they kiss on the roof of the hotel . jessica asks antonio if it would be ok if they are just engaged for a while , and antonio agrees .

marty is distraught to have lost her baby regardless of who pushed her . cole tells starr he knows that her father did it . she asks him how he can assume that without proof . hannah reveals to cole that she knows who pushed marty . kelly and john notice that rodney travelled all the way from the california hospital to find her and tell her who killed her mother and somebody killed him . and they assume it 's the same person who killed her mother . langston and ford are making out assuming they are alone in the high school gym when destiny sees them . they do n't know that and langston continues to play her `` role `` with markko . but destiny informs matthew what she saw and admits she had problems playing langston in the school musical now that she knows she 's a hypocrite .

[ spencer sighs ] spencer : i suppose that would be todd 's excuse , would n't it ? huh . you know , i 'm willing to bet that he would 've done the same thing i did when i was young . however , we are nothing alike , and i would never hurt you . blair : he never wanted to hurt me , either . spencer : but he did . listen , i have to ask your forgiveness for something else . earlier when i asked you not to tell anyone about this , i put you in a very awkward position . it was wrong and i 'm sorry . i know what i have to do . blair : what ? spencer : i have to do the right thing . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm not really sure what the legal ramifications would be for paige with this , but i had a hand in covering it up and i have to accept responsibility for my actions . i have to turn myself in . [ scene_break ] natalie : oh , ok . i 'm going to be sick if you do n't take this blindfold off . vincent : the blindfold stays and you best be puking away from me . natalie : why is this necessary ? it 's -- it 's overdone . it 's so `` godfather . `` vincent : if this was `` the godfather , `` i 'd be taking you out to some field and you 'd be next year 's fertilizer . natalie : but you 're not , right ? vincent : i 'm taking you to see our friend . yeah -- that 's what we 'll call him . we 'll call him `` our friend , `` and our friend does n't like people creeping in the back of his crib and surprising him , especially if that creeper 's got a cop with her . you understand what i 'm saying ? natalie : but i -- i do n't -- i do n't creep . i mean , i have no idea where we are . vincent : that 's because you got a blindfold on . natalie : no , no , i 'm just -- i 'm terrible with my sense of direction and -- you know , i mean , i ca n't even find my car at the supermarket . vincent : you know , i got a feeling that you always find what you 're looking for . natalie : the only thing i 'm looking for is the shooter of thomas mc bain . and can you guarantee that i get that information ? vincent : there 's not a person in this world that can guarantee that . and as far as you know , i 'm taking you out to that field . natalie : then i would n't need a blindfold , would i ? [ vincent chuckles ] vincent : you know what ? i like you . you 've got sass . natalie : hmm . vincent : i 'll give you that . natalie : i 'm so happy that you like me . vincent : you know , this mc bain -- he must mean a lot to you . natalie : he does . why ? vincent : because you 're laying it all out there for a man that you said that you 're not in love with .

[ scene_break ] roxy : so what 's the problem ? you did n't like me taking your blood to save our grandson ? is that why you tried to strangle me ? well , you know , you always were a little bit selfish . but it 's too late , because shane 's going to live . you can hear me , ca n't you ? i do n't know how you do it . you make that machine do whatever you want it to do . so you may have fooled some other people , but you ca n't fool me . and i 'm going to do what i should have done a long time ago . i 'm going to pull your plug .

[ scene_break ] jessica : so what 's the deal , brody ? you keep on saying you wish you could tell me something and then gigi shows up and insists that you tell me . this sounds really complicated . brody : it is . but i 'm hoping it 's not too complicated for you to deal with . jessica : so lay it on me . brody : i do n't even know where to start , uh , but the first thing you need to know is that i never slept with gigi .

[ scene_break ] starr : why do you do this to me , dad ? todd : i 'm sorry . do what ? starr : you know that i want to believe you no matter what . todd : well , that 's good . starr : not when you do horrible things . because not only are you hurting me , but you 're making me hurt cole . todd : this is different . starr : you 're right , it is different . it 's actually worse because now it has to do with cole 's mother , and he loves her , and she just found out that her baby died -- todd : yeah , not because of me . starr : and i told him that . i told him that i did n't think that you had anything to do with it . todd : ha . what did he do ? did he laugh in your face ? starr : yeah . actually because you and his mom have a past -- todd : listen , i do n't care what cole thinks ! i only care what you think , and i want you to think and i want you to believe that i did n't do this . starr : swear to me . todd : i just did ! starr : well , do it again ! if you want me to take your side against cole , you have to promise me , all right ? give me your word that you are telling me the truth . todd : starr , i swear to you . i swear i did n't push marty . i did n't do it . i swear . starr : i believe you .

[ scene_break ] viki : oh , my god , poor rex . poor rex . he 's been searching for his father for so long . and then to find out -- i mean , how could roxanne have lied to him all those years ? gigi : oh , roxy did n't lie . it was allison . she led roxy to believe that rex was her son . viki : you mean roxy did n't know ? gigi : no , she had no idea . viki : well , that 's awful . i mean , that 's really awful ... for both of them . gigi : mm - hmm . viki : well , how is rex dealing with this ? gigi : uh , half the time he pretends like it does n't matter , like he suddenly does n't need parents anymore . viki : and the other half ? gigi : he gets real quiet and looks almost as if he 's ashamed . viki : ashamed of what ? gigi : well , it stinks to not feel like you belong to anybody and to know that your mom just gave you up and never looked back . he does n't want to come off like he 's feeling sorry for himself . viki : well , that 's ridiculous . i mean , wanting to know who you are , where you come from -- it 's the most basic thing in the world . there 's not a person alive who does n't want to know that . gigi : that 's exactly what i tried to tell him . viki : well , in that case , despite everything that 's happened , rex is a very lucky man . gigi : lucky ? viki : yes , honey . he has you to help him through this .

[ scene_break ] destiny : i just meant that when i 'm trying to play langston ... matthew : it does n't feel real . destiny : because some of the things that have happened to you and markko have n't happened to me , so it feels like a lie . matthew : because me and destiny are n't a couple in real life , so it 's just , you know , hard to do sometimes . langston : i guess that 's why they call it acting . destiny : ahh . kill me now . matthew : okay , that was way too close . from now on , we stay out of this . destiny : definitely , and if markko ever finds out langston 's cheating on him , it 's not gon na be from me .

[ scene_break ] bo : i am no stranger to trust problems , my friend . remember when nora and i broke up after she -- rex : slept with sam rappaport , right . bo : because i could n't forgive her , no matter what the reason . rex : well , she cheated on you . bo : because she loved me . but see , i could n't see that . rex : yeah , what man could ? bo : a smart man ... a man that knows that if you love somebody , if you really love them , then you can forgive them for almost anything . rex : so why do you think you could n't do that ? bo : because i was a jackass . see , i could have listened to my heart , but no . instead , i listened to pride , and pride said nora must pay . but you know who paid ? me . all those years , nora and i , we could have been together . i was just too damn scared . rex : of what ? bo : getting hurt again ? rex : you 're not scared of that anymore ? bo : what , are you kidding me ? of course i am , but i 'm damn sure not gon na stop living because of that . because to me , the way i feel right now , life without nora ... there 's no life .

[ echoing laughter ] i thought i had you under control . you have to come back and let me out . i -- i need to go to the hearing . i need to get custody of the baby . i need to convince tess to go away and jessie to come back . do you hear me , niki ? you have to let me out now ! [ scene_break ] tess : natalie , i thought you understood . what did you tell him ? ok , the truth is mom tried to scare me into letting jessica out by pretending to be niki smith . that trick only worked once -- i saw right through it -- and mom even copped to it . but this little one has always been a little slow on the uptake , have n't you ? joey : will you give it a rest , tess , all right ? we 're on to you . you and niki obviously have some plan to get custody of ryder . it 's not gon na happen . natalie : where is she , tess ? joey : tess , where is she ? [ scene_break ] niki : you must be rubbing off on me , vik . i should 've hightailed it out of here when i had the shot . ohh . ick . but i promised tess , did n't i ? and niki smith is no welcher ! ha ha ! she thinks i owe her . i do n't owe her squat ! but i 'm gon na do her a little favor , and then she 's gon na owe me . yeah ! so i 'm gon na pretend to be you , miss viki , so tess can get jessie 's kid and the money . and then i am on the first plane to vegas ! bye - bye , viki ! that is the last you gon na see of me , the very last ! viki : no ! you will not hurt my daughter ! not again ! you owe jessica big time , and you will not take ryder away from her ! now , let me out of here ! [ scene_break ] [ keys jingling ] tess : what is up with these two , huh ? do we have to go through this again ? ok . niki is viki 's alter , so niki 's in viki 's head . natalie : so then where is viki , because the hearing 's about to start . tess : yeah . you 'd think she 'd care enough about her grandchild to make an appearance , right ? [ scene_break ] viki : jean . oh , thank god . jean : really , victoria , was all that caterwauling really necessary ? viki : apparently it worked , because you 're here . you 're the gatekeeper . now , open this gate and let me out of here . jean ? let me out of here . jean , will you hurry up ? niki is in cahoots with tess ! jean : calm down . viki : you do n't understand ! i 'm suing tess for custody of ryder , and niki is planning on impersonating me at the hearing to make sure that the judge finds me incompetent and gives tess the baby ! jean : it 's interesting , is n't it ? it sounds as if that hearing is rather important to you . viki : `` important `` ? it is crucial ! that 's why i have to get there ! now , unlock this gate ! jean : no , victoria , i ca n't do that . niki : ok . tess gets the kid , and i get out of here ! you know , i was thinking vegas , but now i 'm thinking -- agh -- monte carlo . monte carlo 's better . it 's a lot further . what do you think , vik , huh ? vegas ? monte carlo ? atlantic city ? i do n't know . ha ha . i do know i ai n't ever gon na wear anything this ugly again . ok ! showtime ! viki : jean ? niki 's voice : showtime ! viki : jean , do you hear that ? she is laughing at us . you can not leave me in here . jean : me ? leave you ? viki : ok , fine . fine , it 's my fault . obviously i let my guard down , but that 's no reason to punish jessica and ryder or little bree . tess does n't care about those children ! they need someone to protect them , and someone needs to get jessica into treatment . please , jean . i have to get to the courtroom before niki speaks to the judge . [ scene_break ] ford : ok . so where is she ? tess : relax . joey : and that 's all the proof you need that niki is back . there 's no way mom would miss ryder 's custody hearing . tess : she 'll be here . natalie : you sure about that ? tess : absolutely positively . natalie : really ? and why is that ? joey : because she 's already made a deal with niki . tess : there 's just no talking to you people , really . ow ! joey : stop it . admit it . tess : let me go . joey : you 're using niki to get custody of ryder . ford : get your hands off my wife . [ scene_break ] jean : it certainly sounds as if you should be at that hearing . jessica 's children clearly need their mother back . tess would no doubt leave ryder in a coatroom if she could , and robert ford 's paternal qualifications are as yet untested . so that leaves the question , why are you still here ? viki : because you wo n't let me out . jean : pay attention , victoria . i never i said i wo n't let you out . i said i ca n't let you out . viki : you 're the gatekeeper . you have a key . jean : yes , i am the gatekeeper . however , i do n't have a key . viki : why not ? jean : because you gave it to niki . [ scene_break ] joey : stay the hell out of this , ford . ford : ryder is my son , tess is my wife , and you assaulted her . joey : she 's not your wife . she 's not even a real person . tess : hey ! i resent that ! natalie : get used to it . joey : tess is an alter , ok ? you 're only using her to get ahold of ryder 's trust fund -- ford : that 's not true ! come on ! joey : so do n't go ahead and just pretend that you love her or respect her , because if that were true , you 'd already have her in a hospital . this marriage is a total fake . ford : and your marriage is perfect ? you know why aubrey wentworth married you ? because you 're a buchanan . joey : that 's not true . ford : were you with us at the venice film festival ? no . do you know how many rich jackasses she threw herself at before she finally settled down with you ? tess : great ! thanks a lot . natalie : this is my fault ? tess : you came and sicced your big bully brother on us . what is the matter with you , natty ? are you jealous that i have a man and you do n't ? natalie : shut up , tess ! niki : children ! children ! what is going on ? i 'm waiting for an answer . gracious ! this is hardly the way to behave in a court of law ! what were you thinking ? tess : see ? it 's viki , right down to the pole up her -- natalie : mom , is it really you ? niki : is it me ? of course , it 's me ? who else would it be ? ha ha ! joey : niki , working with tess . natalie : we think that you 're pretending to be viki to ensure that tess gets custody . [ scene_break ] jean : now , your children are on to nicole . ordinarily , that would be enough to send her packing , and yet there she is . viki : i do n't understand any of this . how could i have given her the key ? you 're the gatekeeper . jean : but i 'm only as strong as you are , victoria , and lately you have been less than 100 % . viki : yes , i know , and clearly , that 's why you 're here . you take charge when i ca n't . so take charge ! bring niki back ! jean : i ca n't . viki : why not ? it 's not as if i consciously let her out . jean : no , it was n't conscious , but it was intentional . viki : that 's not possible . i would never intentionally let niki out . jean : and yet you did . you 're in a weakened state , victoria . you 've had several serious setbacks lately -- tess has replaced jessica ; natalie told a terrible lie , which caused her to lose the man she loves ; and you can not shake the image of that blowsy slattern echo disavoy -- the name alone is enough to give one pause -- in the arms of your husband . actually , any one of these circumstances would have been enough to summon nicole or me , but altogether it was just too much . you could n't face it , and so you chose to hide here , and you let niki take your place . this was your doing , victoria , not mine . [ scene_break ] niki : i 'm not sure i entirely understand this . you think that i am pretending to be me ? joey : we think niki got out . tess : they think niki and i cut a deal . niki : niki smith and tess ? oh , do n't be ridiculous . ha ha ha ! look , i have n't had any trouble from niki smith in years . i 'm completely integrated . natalie , darling , i told you all of this last night . joey : we do n't believe you . mom ? mom , i know you 're in there . we 're here . it 's safe to come out . niki : joey , this is not necessary . really -- joey : i know how much stress you 're under , ok , and we 're here . we 're not gon na let niki get away with this . [ scene_break ] viki : that 's joey . he needs me . they all need me ! jean : they have always needed you . viki : that proves it ! i would never have deliberately chosen to come here ! jean : and yet you did . viki : no !

[ scene_break ] viki : there has got to be a way out of here . jean : you ca n't walk away from the truth . and you wo n't find a way out that way . viki : watch me . niki smith will not help tess get that baby . never ! [ scene_break ] natalie : mom , listen . viki : look , i appreciate the show of support from both of you . i really , really do . but i also know that you both feel your place is really with your father at the hospital , and i understand that , so off you go . joey : we 're staying right here . niki : joey , darling , i am so worried about clint . joey : aubrey 's at the hospital . she 'll call if anything changes . natalie : mom , where is nora ? is n't she representing you ? niki : yes , she was . she had some sort of a conflict and the judge removed her . natalie : what ? what about téa ? joey : i 'll call . niki : no ! do n't call téa . no , i 've already spoken to téa . she was very clear . she has to be with todd . natalie : we just heard there 's a new judge . judge massicotte has all of rousseau 's records , and that means they 're working from the same information . niki : then there 's no problem . all we 're doing is listening to the judge 's decision , right ? i do n't need a lawyer for that . bailiff : all rise . this hearing is now in session . [ scene_break ] jean : you chose to hide , which is understandable , given your circumstances . viki : even if that 's true , i ca n't hide anymore . there is much too much at stake . it 's jessie 's future and the baby 's . jean : oh , unfortunately , it may be too late . viki : what do you mean ? jean : the hearing is in session . look . [ scene_break ] judge : i apologize for the disruption this late in the proceedings , but i 've read judge rousseau 's notes and have familiarized myself with the various claims of the parties and am ready to proceed with the decision . will mrs. buchanan be joining us ? viki : no , no . she had a previous engagement . i 'm gon na represent myself . judge : we 'll accept that . as we 're through the evidentiary phase of this proceeding , it should n't be a problem . but where 's mr. banks ? niki : charlie ? charlie 's in -- disposed . judge : that 's surprising . the last time you convened , he made an impassioned speech on your behalf . i expected him to be here . niki : you 're not the only one . judge : i 'm sorry ? niki : it appears that charlie banks has finally shown his true colors . judge : again , mrs. banks -- niki : you know what ? do n't call me that . judge : i beg your pardon ? niki : ok , the truth is that charlie banks is a lousy cheater , and i am lucky to finally be rid of him . judge : i do n't understand . you asked him to join you in the suit . niki : yeah . now i 'm un - asking him . ok ? oh , come on , judge . do n't tell me you do n't watch `` access llanview `` ? there is a picture of charlie banks kissing another woman , which is why there is no way that i can take care of my grandchild . i mean , not now . tess : told you not to worry . judge : i 'm sorry , mrs. banks . let me get this straight . you 're no longer pursuing custody of ryder ? viki : nope . i am withdrawing my suit . it 's the right thing to do . the kid belongs with his parents , with -- what 's his name -- ford , and of course , with my daughter jessica brennan -- uh , ford . [ scene_break ] viki : no ! she can not do that . now , make her stop ! jean : if only i could . viki : tess can not win custody of ryder . it would be disastrous ! do you hear me ? ! jean : very well . viki : then do something ! i have to get out of here ! jean : as we have discussed , i do n't have the key . viki : i know . i gave the key to niki . i understand , but there 's got to be another way . joey and natalie -- they 're at the hearing . where are they ? where are they ? joey ? there they are . joey , natalie , that 's not me . it 's niki ! [ scene_break ] joey : it 's definitely niki . natalie : yeah , because there is no way that mom would abandon ryder , not in a million years . morgan : your honor ? as mrs. banks has made it clear that she no longer wants custody , i 'd like to ask that you adjourn this hearing and allow my clients to get home to their child . judge : mrs. banks , are you sure this is what you want ? because once your petition is withdrawn , i will not allow you to reinstate it . the minor will remain with his biological parents . joey : your honor , i 'm sorry . that woman must not be allowed to withdraw my mother 's suit . that is not mrs. banks . that is not my mother . [ scene_break ] viki : oh , thank god . thank god joey knows it 's niki . now the judge is gon na have to put an end to this travesty . jean : i would not underestimate niki smith . [ scene_break ] judge : if this woman is n't mrs. banks , then who is she ? judge : she 's another personality , your honor , an alter . natalie : our mother , much like our sister jessica , has dissociative identity disorder , d.i.d . joey : which basically means the psyche fractures and -- judge : i 've read the literature . i 'm aware of the disorder . natalie : ok . our mother has been under a tremendous amount of stress , and she has fractured into this personality . niki : excuse me ? it 's not polite to point , darling . my children are very , very protective . what they 're saying , your honor , is simply not true . tess : they 're just jealous . they 've always known that mom likes me best . natalie : that is so -- it 's not true , your honor . we love our sister jessica . but this is not jessica . this is tess , and this is niki smith . joey : the two of them are trying to fool the court into awarding custody of ryder to tess so that she can steal his trust fund . niki : you know what , joe - y , i think -- she 's right . i do like her better . you know what ? you and the redhead , you 're royal pains in the butt . judge : now , let 's settle down here , and i need some answers . you -- who are you ? niki : you got me , judge ! i 'm niki smith ! ha ha ha ! and trust me , i 'm a lousy mother -- just ask her . i ca n't stand kids . do you know what ? i could really use a drink right now . i just want to have a good time . you know what i mean ? judge : i get the idea . niki : ok , long story short , you 'd be nuts to give me that kid . nuts . [ scene_break ] jean : so the good news is that niki has been outed . the bad news is -- viki : i 'm still in here . so you have to stop this , jean . just because i 'm locked up does n't mean we 're helpless . you said that the reason niki got out and i 'm locked in here is because of me . it was my choice . i am choosing to order you into action . now ! [ scene_break ] [ keys jingling ] niki : come to think of it , viki 's no great shakes as a mother either . joey : that is not true . niki : oh , yeah . listen to him . what , is he , like , 12 years old ? he 's already been married three times . over there we got loony tunes . and let 's not forget miss hot - to - trot , huh ?

[ scene_break ] niki : ha ha ha ha ! you thought it was a good idea to let her out ? hoo - hoo - hoo ! you must be desperate ! that judge gon na get a good look at miss `` wrapped so tight her eyes do n't work , `` and you can kiss old ryder bye - bye ! viki : no . no . [ scene_break ] jean : children are messy , your honor . they smell . they 're noisy and demanding and completely self - centered . however , it ca n't be much harder caring for one of them than caring for a household pet . they need feeding and cleaning -- and clothes . in that respect , i suppose a pet has the advantage . in any case , i 'm quite sure i 'll be able to manage . i 've read many books on the subject . i know all about sleep schedules and bath temperatures . judge : excuse me , ms. randolph , what about love ? where will you learn about love ? jean : you mean bonding ? judge : no . love . jean : attachment ? judge : love . children need love , ms. randolph . jean : i 'm sure i can find a book on the subject .

[ scene_break ] adriana : gigi does n't know that we 're here . she still thinks you 're dead . brody : so why are you all here again ? adriana : well , when little shane did his comic book about his dad , the war hero -- the superhero , sorry . anyway , we wanted to do something for him -- he 's such a great kid -- so we thought we 'd look up your family and ask them if they would allow gigi to legally prove that you 're shane 's father . that way , he would get the benefits that he 's entitled to as a veteran 's son . dorian : imagine our surprise when we found out you were still alive . brody : is shane -- is he sick or something ? adriana : asthma . gigi has to work day and night just to be able to pay for his treatment . layla : wow . adriana : and with her new job , you know , we do n't know how long it 's going to last , her whole life is uncertain . she needs some backup . dorian : and you know , we are n't going to tell her that we found you unless you 're going back to her . adriana : we 're talking about your son and the woman that you loved . look , gigi 's had it tough and it 's not fair that she has to take care of herself and shane all on her own . so come to llanview with us , go see gigi . tell her she 's not alone anymore .

[ scene_break ] adriana : think about it , brody . think about the look on gigi 's face when her hero comes walking through the door . brody : she would n't be a little suspicious ? that i just out of the blue tracked her down after all these years ? adriana : i 've already thought about how you 're going to explain that . gigi and shane were living in paris , texas , and a few months ago , there was an incident there . it was in papers all over the country . gigi and shane 's names were mentioned several times . dorian : you could 've seen the names in the newspaper , tracked them down to texas , and then on to llanview , pennsylvania . layla : that makes sense to me . adriana : mm - hmm . dorian : and if you do decide to go to llanview , i promise you i will take care of all of your financial needs until you are on your feet . brody : you 're offering me money ? dorian : well , all of you , money -- you , gigi , and dear little shane . there is a limo outside and a private jet waiting to take us back to llanview . brody : a limo ? private jet ? adriana : with champagne onboard . brody : and you ? adriana : and layla , too . brody : what the hell . dorian : ooh . layla : wow , you guys . dorian : would you say he 's a bit of a sleaze ? adriana : do n't worry . by the time i 'm done cleaning him up , he 'll be every bit the hero that shane says he is .

[ scene_break ] matthew : cole lost his mind and starr kept yelling at him , but he just -- he just kept wailing on todd . it took a bunch of us to pull him off . the worst part is dani was right there . she saw the whole thing . bo : how are dani and starr now ? it 's got ta be rough on both of them . matthew : yeah , it was , especially for dani . i mean , she hated her father from the moment she met him , but ... tonight was different . bo : how ? matthew : when dani was looking at todd , when he could n't open his eyes , i kind of saw myself . i remembered how sad i was when you were shot . i was thinking about how much time i wasted when i could n't walk being mad at you . but i guess it 's different for dani because she never really got to know her dad in the first place . bo : how 's manning doing now ? matthew : emts took him to the emergency room . that 's all i know . i just want to find dani and just tell her everything 's gon na be okay , even if it is n't .

[ scene_break ] bo : i 've been where you are , son . the only thing harder than seeing somebody that you really care about hurting is knowing the right thing to say ... and when to say anything at all . matthew : is that what it was like for you and mom when i could n't walk ? bo : yeah . pretty much . all you want is to make things better . i 'll bet you 're itching right now to ride off to dani 's rescue . matthew : how 'd you know ? right . it 's your job . bo : yeah . yeah , there 's that . and it 's also the -- the buchanan curse . matthew : why is it a curse to help the people who you care about ? bo : because sometimes those people do n't need your help . sometimes they -- they do n't even want it . just ask your mom . matthew : well , how do you know when to help and when not to ? bo : well , in this case , if it were me , i would give dani room . because i 'm sure that she is feeling things right now that -- some of them are very complicated , and she may be embarrassed to have you see her feeling them . matthew : well , she should n't be embarrassed . i guess she probably ca n't help it . bo : well , yeah . there 's that . there 's also the fact that you ca n't just disappear . matthew : then what should i do , dad ? bo : you let her know that you are holding a lifeline . she 'll let you know when it 's time to throw it . matthew : i do n't know . dani does n't really like to ask for help . bo : yeah , well , that 's when the curse then becomes a blessing , because after you 've done all of that , and you still feel that need to go to her , then you know it 's right . and i 'll tell you something . nobody comes to the rescue better than a buchanan . [ scene_break ] viki : hey . are you all right ? dani : i do n't get my mother . viki : hmm . show me a daughter your age who does . dani : seriously , how could she be so blind ? viki : i hate to admit it , danielle , but that blindness is something that téa and i actually share . we both love todd , even though we know we should n't . dani : well , if you know you should n't , then -- viki : then why do we ? i know . it 's a good question . you should meet my daughter natalie -- she 's your cousin -- because she 's asked me that same question dozens of times . dani : what do you tell her ? viki : he 's my brother . and he 's done terrible things . i know that . and because of that , he 's an easy mark . but i still love him because i 'm convinced that deep down somewhere in todd , there is good . in fact , a long time ago , i made a very conscious choice to never give up on him . and everyone who loves todd has to at some point make that decision . i 'm sorry that you have to face it so young . dani : so did starr . somehow , she still manages to love him no matter what . i do n't think i can do that . viki : starr ... todd has been in starr 's life since she was a baby . you know , you just met him . but starr will tell you that for all of todd 's faults , he really , really does love his children . now , if you -- if you can love him , that 's great . if you can not , then that 's it . you ca n't . just know that whatever you decide , i will support you in that , just as i support todd . and that 's no matter what . [ scene_break ] blair : well , apparently you know more about what happened to marty than everybody else does , kelly . kelly : no . i ca n't see it . i mean , obviously todd is not a saint , but he 's come a long way . and does anybody really believe that he 's capable of pushing a pregnant woman down the stairs ? blair : he did it to his own daughter . todd : that was an accident . blair : you know , kelly , i ca n't believe that you 're actually stupid enough to trust todd with no questions asked . you know , someday the wrong person is gon na walk into your life , and you know what ? it 's gon na be your funeral .

[ scene_break ] todd : what do you want ?
todd has awoken and is going to be ok . but everybody is torn on whether to believe that he did not cause marty to lose her baby . tea is ready to represent him when john is ready to arrest him . but blair admits to starr that it would n't surprise her if todd pushed marty and that would be unforgivable . dani is torn on what to do and to think . so is starr . matthew is not certain how to help dani and talks to his dad about that . cole has to go to jail for assault . eli represents him . meanwhile , it appears that somebody is watching kelly . dorian is very worried her niece will get killed since her mother did and then rodney died when he was ready to reveal what he knew about her mother 's death . and kelly seems to somehow know that todd is being falsely accused of pushing marty and that somebody else did it .

[ scene_break ] viki : i will check on the children regularly while they are with todd . i promise you . but short of that , dorian , there 's nothing i can do . dorian : you 're as bad as john mcbain . viki : how so ? dorian : he promised when he married blair that he would protect her children , and what did he do ? he got himself arrested for murder . viki : come on , you do n't for a second believe that he murdered people or stabbed blair ? dorian : no , no . absolutely not . but he bolted . he 's now a fugitive , and -- and he should 've stayed here and faced the charges against him . and now blair 's more worried about him than she is about herself .

[ scene_break ] cole : this is not happening . it 's not -- it 's not happening ! hold on . you can get through this . markko : or you can always get me to do it for you . that 's what friends are for , right ? taking drug tests for your buddy ? or at least that 's what i do . but you , dude ? you fed me some crap story about taking something for your headache . that 's why you could n't do your own drug test . and i went with it , totally bought that you were n't still using . cole : look , man , i 'm sorry i screwed up . that 's all on me . markko : no , it 's on me , too . because i was the one who believed you . now lola knows . she 's trying to pin me for it . do you know what 's going to happen if this gets out ? i can forget college . i 'm going to jail . like you give a damn . cole : no , i do ! markko : i used to believe that . you were like my brother . but all you cared about were your stupid pills ! cole : i do n't , i do n't ! i hate them . i 'm trying -- i 'm trying not to want them anymore , but i -- i need you . i need you and starr -- schuyler : starr ? no , i do n't think so . you had your chance with her , buddy . you screwed it up , pushed her away ... right into my loving arms .

[ scene_break ] viki : there is nothing more that i can do . excuse me . dorian : no , excuse me . i 'll now go tell blair that her children are gone . [ door closes ] viki : yes , john , or should i say that you changed your name to kevin ? john : so you heard about that . viki : hmm , a ms. kwon from the sitwell institute just phoned me to tell me that my children kevin and jessica were there to visit powell . so what do you know about that ? john : maybe it 's better if you do n't know . was that dorian i heard in the background ? viki : yes . todd has custody of the children . john : i was afraid that would happen . viki : so why did you leave ? john : i 'm being set up for these murders , mrs. davidson . viki : well , bo 's not going to let that happen . john : not if i find the killer first , hopefully before he gets a chance to kill again . viki : why did you call me ? john : well , i needed some information about your cousin powell lord . i 'm just wondering if , besides marty or todd , there was anyone that played a big part in his life . maybe a woman ? viki : i have n't thought about powell in years . oh , wait a minute , wait a minute . no , there was someone . [ scene_break ] emily : i knew mr. lord never responds when you see him , dr. saybrooke , but he always seems so much more relaxed after he 's been with you . [ scene_break ] john : i want to thank you for your help , mrs. davidson , and i -- i 'd appreciate it if you did n't mention this call to anyone . viki : you know , the police are looking for marty , too . i can only assume that the jessica who went with kevin was -- john : marty 's safe . thanks again . marty : what 'd you find out ? john : there was a woman in powell 's past . her name 's rebecca lewis . [ scene_break ] powell : hello , rebecca . [ scene_break ] john : rebecca lewis does n't ring any bells ? marty : i do n't remember my own son 's father . who is she ? john : viki said that she and powell were engaged before he went off the deep end , and apparently , this rebecca was also involved with todd . marty : oh , great . well , she must know all about me , then . what do we do now ? john : find rebecca lewis . [ scene_break ] brody : what time tomorrow ? jessica : well , let me get things squared away with the kids , and then i 'll call you , okay ?

[ twig snaps ] viki : what was that ? [ scene_break ] marty : rebecca -- dr. rebecca lewis . what was her specialty ? john : it does n't say . she was at the same hospital , until she suddenly quit about six months ago . that 's it . that 's all there is . marty : well , what do we do now ? [ john sighs ] john : well , i got a couple contacts at the bureau . maybe one of them can tell us what rebecca 's been doing the last six months . [ scene_break ] rebecca : i heard you had family visiting today . powell : it was n't family . it was marty . rebecca : marty ? could she know ? powell : relax , rebecca , she is n't on to a thing . rebecca : who was the guy claiming to be kevin buchanan ? powell : must be john mcbain . he 's smart . he 's an ex - cop . i knew he 'd end up following the trail here . which is exactly where i want him . [ scene_break ] bo : i want the name of this kid . marcie : ask matthew how his day went and maybe he 'll tell you about it . nora : and if he does n't ? i mean , this is how we got into the situation in the first place . we could 've done something . marcie : yeah , and that might not have changed anything . bo : well , what are we supposed to do ? are we supposed to just let this keep happening to him ? marcie : well , i do n't think that you should get in the middle of it . i really do n't , because it could just make things worse for matthew . nora : since when is a parent 's love and concern a bad thing ? marcie : no , it 's not . kids matthew 's age , they 're just pretending to be hatched from an egg in the middle of the forest . they want nothing to do with their parents . you know , they 're separating , and fighting their own battles is just a part of it . nora : even if those battles lead them to be paralyzed ? bo : nora , she 's right . nora : well -- bo : i know . it does n't mean we ca n't keep worrying about matthew , but we ca n't be there for him , you know , around the clock . he 's going to have to work through his own stuff . nora : and what if he ca n't ? marcie : he 's a lot stronger than you think . i got to get back inside for my next class . oh , but sorry for thinking that you guys were parked out here for a make - out session . seriously , get a grip . bo : hmm .

[ marcie laughs ] marcie : that 's right , i am jen . oh , he is going to be so excited ! i 'm going to go tell him right now . riley : well , do n't scare him to death with that new look .

[ marcie giggles ] marcie : hmm . you 've been spying without me ? michael : yeah . and , baby , i 'm on top of something huge . laser : see , what you do n't know is this food is n't the guy 's food . he just works for some corporation that owns all these food stands all over new york . the owner gets the money and lives in connecticut . so that makes you sort of like robin hood or something , you know ? corporations are , like , the rich and we 're , like , the poor . travis does this all the time . he 's really good at it . and here 's something else you should never forget -- what that guy does n't sell gets tossed in the garbage . how old are you ? starr : 13 . laser : then you 're old enough to pull this off . unless , of course , you still want to be a baby and go running back to mommy and daddy . starr : ok , let 's do it . paul : so did you call my supervisor ? john : why ? should i call ? maybe he should know you used to fly stuff in and out of mexico for the koriakus brothers . paul : look , i told you i 'm clean , remember ? so you go shooting your mouth off to the hospital chief of staff , i 'm going to lose my job . john : you know it seems to me a hospital ought to be concerned about a pilot involved in possible illegal activities . hell , who knows ? maybe he 's doing it again . paul : god , i 'm not ! john : so you say . paul : hey , you know what ? this is what i say . you want to get me fired for dating natalie vega , fine ; you go ahead and do that , lieutenant . but i 'm going to file a lawsuit that 's going to end your career , not to mention make me very wealthy . so go for it . go on and call , all right ? my supervisor 's name is dr. william long , phone 's right there . john : then again , maybe i 'll just kick the crap out of you in an alley some night . after all , who 'd believe you , anyway ? paul : yeah , i 'm sure natalie really respects you for that . but you go ahead and you do whatever you want , all right ? i 'm still going to see natalie as much as i can . so you have a good day . michael : be careful , marcie . just find out what they 're talking about , get the hell out of there . jen : no , i did n't start that . i do n't care if -- mac : i saw the whole thing . natalie , you 're out of here . natalie : oh , who cares ? mac : you know , and do n't come back till you get sober . that job you have here tending bar , it 's gone . you 're fired . michael : come on , sweetie . come on . [ knock on door ] dorian : what are you doing ? michael : oh ! for crying out loud , dorian . dorian : calm down . but , you know , if i had been dr. long , i would have caught you right in the act . michael : dr. long is over there in his office . dorian : i know that . and paul is on his way to go see him . i just talked to him in the hall . michael : cramer -- dorian : mm - hmm . michael : is on his way to long 's office ? dorian : yes . michael : oh , no . marcie is outside of dr. long 's office right now , eavesdropping . she 's trying to find out what 's going on . if cramer catches her -- oh , my god . we got to -- we -- we ca n't . i -- you got to just -- you got to get over there . you got to -- you got to go , you got to go . dorian : consider it done . ok . michael : ok . ok . todd : i think we should go back to the hotel . blair : todd , she was here . what if she comes back ? todd : what if she does n't come back ? blair : man . hey , look ! todd : what ? blair : i saw it ! just hold on a sec . it 's down here by the water ! it 's right here . blair : right here , see ? this is her ribbon , todd ! it 's her ribbon . she was here . she and travis were here . she was here ! todd : ok , that 's all right . blair : she was here .

[ scene_break ] britney : so i told henry i 'd repay him if he wrote my paper . what should i let him do ? kiss my -- henry 's voice : `` britney will come to understand that we are meant to be together . she clearly does n't know what 's best for her . she needs someone to take care of her , someone who can think ahead for her . i have a plan . a plan for our lives . `` [ scene_break ] marty : is cole in trouble again ? john : no , no , he 's not . marty : well -- ok , then what ? john : off the record , he -- he came to see me and he and i talked for a good while . marty : well , did he say anything that worries you ? well , yeah -- of course he did . otherwise , you would n't have come to see me . john : look , it 's -- it 's not about what he said , it 's -- it 's more about where he came to see me , and i felt obligated to come tell you about that . marty : well , where was it ? john : the firing range during target practice . it 's maybe not the best place for a kid to be .

[ scene_break ] cole : there 's no way todd can wiggle out of this , is there ? i mean , can nora charge him with killing your baby ? john : we 'd have to prove that he knew that your mom was pregnant and that there was intention to hurt or kill the baby , but with everything he said to your mom before ... i think nora can push for it , yeah . cole : good . he needs to pay for this . and that 's not even enough . john : no , it 's not . cole : hey , i 'm sorry about the baby . john : forget about it . hey , you know , when your mom , when she told me she was pregnant , i was scared . i did n't think i was gon na be much of a father . cole : you kidding ? john : it 's a lot , you know ? cole : yeah , well , you learn as you go , trust me . john : yeah , yeah , i got that , you know . um , i started to understand , you know , just take it one thing at a time . and when i did that , i almost started seeing it . you know , i imagined taking the little guy to a ball game like my dad used to take me . and i -- and i thought , you know , i could do that . and if it was a little girl , i imagined that she would be smart and beautiful like your mom . cole : i 'm sorry . john : do n't . you got your child back . cole : yeah , it 's a miracle . john : take it . they 're hard to come by .

[ scene_break ] todd : do n't you dare talk to me like i 'm a child . blair : you 're worse than a child . children , at least , learn from their mistakes . you keep doing the same boneheaded mistake over and over again . todd : i apologized to starr for the whole hawaii move and she forgave me -- end of story . blair : right , and she was in such a forgiving mood that she ran away . todd : that 's not my fault ! blair : really ? todd : god ! i said that it 's -- it 's -- it 's -- it 's not my fault . i eased up on her and the whole thing . i mean , i let her go to school . blair : wait , wait , stop right there . you hear yourself -- you `` let her go to school `` ? who do you think you are , todd ? todd : i 'm her father . blair : yeah , i 'm her mother . and did you ask me one time my opinion ? no -- you just laid down the law . todd : well , somebody has to . i mean -- blair : what are you talking about ? todd : did you even know , did you see for a second that our daughter was getting up close and personal with some -- some -- some steroid - raging freak ? did you see it ? blair : are you talking about cole thornhart ? todd : i think -- blair : he 's a good boy . todd : he is ? blair : yes , he is and he has gone through a very hard time . and if he turned to starr for comfort -- todd : oh , i do n't think so . he 's trying to use her . blair : he was n't using her ! todd : well , you were n't there . i saw them , in bed together naked . and if i had n't gotten there in time , he would 've raped her . blair : oh , yeah , the only rapist within 100 miles of this situation is you , todd .

[ scene_break ] antonio : ramsey knows i 'm desperate -- he saw me steal the money from the drug bust . he 's got the three of us fighting each other . even now with my hand in the till , he thinks he 's won . talia : well , i 'm all for moving this along , but if ramsey really bought this , then why did he have eddie tailing us ? antonio : look , all eddie saw was the two of you trying to ditch him so you could be alone . he 's probably telling ramsey that now . look , i do n't know what else we could do to possibly get ramsey to let his guard down -- do you ? john : no . talia : we 've watched ramsey operate long enough to know that he 's not going to put himself out in front on this . antonio : so -- i go to him . john : sorry , man , i ca n't help you anymore . you 're on your own with this . [ scene_break ] todd : no , obviously this is n't about me . blair : it 's always about you , todd . you think the world has offered you this free pass -- why ? huh ? because you have suffered -- well , guess what . we 've all suffered . and some of us who 've grown up have accepted it and moved past it . todd : i 'll ask you again -- what would you have done had you discovered your little girl and this punk together -- blair : she 's not so little anymore , todd . todd : she 's a minor . blair : yeah , and so is he , and they love each other . todd : so you approve of it ? blair : i 'm not saying that i approve . i 'm just saying that i understand , todd . i understand -- i mean , they 're young . they 've been together a long time . and cole -- he proved time and time again how much he cared for her . todd : god , you make me sick . blair : he did n't rape her ! todd : you were n't there ! blair : well , you were n't there , either ! you were n't there , todd ! you know what you did ? you went back in your mind , back with marty -- it 's all about your guilt about marty . you saw starr and cole in bed together and that 's where you went ! todd : i see -- so he rips her clothes off , he drags her into bed , and he 's not interested in sex ? blair : sex is n't rape , especially when your daughter was just as interested . but you know what ? it does n't matter because it did n't happen . nothing happened . but now that you 've run them out of town , i can guarantee you that 's exactly what they 're doing . [ scene_break ] cole : we made a mistake . people make mistakes , all right ? it 's what you do next that counts . starr : we ran away , cole . cole : okay . i asked you to think about what you want to do next , all right ? how were you supposed to do that with your dad around ? he was freaking you out . you know , if your dad was halfway human , we might be back in llanview figuring out all this stuff together . starr : okay , you 're right , but what father is going to be cool with his 16-year - old daughter being pregnant ? cole : your father is never cool , all right ? you cross him and he goes straight to crazy . and it does n't matter who you are -- look at what he did to mrs. mcbain . and guess what -- she had to run away , too . now , i 'm sorry if i 'm saying too much , but -- starr : no . cole , you 're right . my dad is a really hard person to love . [ scene_break ] dorian : well , what did you say ? langston : i said you sound just like todd . dorian : well , that hurts . langston : the truth always does . dorian : what about the truth ? that you are 16 years old and you 're pregnant ? i expected more of you . you should expect more of yourself . markko : oh , she can be pregnant and still be an awesome person . i love her . dorian : oh -- how -- shh . how awesome is she going to be walking around with your squalling brat on her hip ? langston : okay , look , i think you 're getting a little wound up about this . dorian : you 've just told me you 're pregnant . langston : i know , but that does n't mean -- dorian : did you stopped for even a second to consider what your life was going to become before you gave yourself to this -- this non - entity ? markko : hey , i may not be rich like you or famous , but i -- dorian : you are thoughtless and selfish and mindless , and that 's why you have sex without using protection ! and now , langston could have any number of sexually transmitted diseases . langston , you could have , oh , chlamydia , you could have gonorrhea -- langston : look , i can promise -- dorian : syphilis , aids . langston : i do n't have any of those . dorian : oh , really ? how can you be so sure ? because you trust this creep ? please , langston , you 're smarter than that . did n't you think about how you were about to sacrifice your life , your future , and for what ? for this ? oh , no . no , no , no , no . you -- you should never have made such a reckless mistake . you 're a cramer now . langston : if this is how a cramer is supposed to act , you know what ? maybe i 'm not a cramer -- not anymore .

[ scene_break ] todd : so i 'm the big bad wolf here and -- and no one else is to be blamed ? certainly not you . for letting starr get close to this punk . and certainly not cole for dragging her out of town . blair : okay , you know what ? i am to blame . todd : right . blair : you 're right , you 're right . i 'm to blame for not reigning you in . because that seems to be my job as your wife . but i ca n't always be there to be on duty , so you 're just going to have to change things , todd . todd : i 'm not changing a thing . blair : well , you know what ? then you 're going to lose everything . you already lost starr . you 're going to lose me , and then the boys . todd : i got you under contract . as for the boys , they 're on my side . blair : well , i would n't be so sure about that . todd : unless you want to give me back my $ 5 million . blair : i 'm not joking here , todd ! i 'm tired of cleaning up after you ! you hear me ? todd : mm - hmm . blair : the world was not created just for you ! we 're not here to make you happy ! todd : do n't you get tired of this , blair ? using me as your personal punching bag ? blair : oh , you bet i do . oh , i -- yeah , really . i hate it . but when we first got together , todd , we were both mean as sin , and selfish . but then we had those beautiful kids , and i wanted to change . i did n't want to hurt them . i toned it down . todd : so did i . blair : yeah , i thought so . when you got sam back , you know , i really thought so . but i was wrong . todd : so what do you want ? blair : i want you to dial it down permanently . todd : is that code for letting john mcbain call all the shots now ? blair : it 's not a contest , todd . i 'm just trying to find our daughter . todd : and i 'm not ? blair : look , the closer you get to her , the faster she runs . now , if you really want to find her and bring her home here , you know , just let john do his job . todd : so this is a test ? is that right ? blair : do you want starr home or not ? yes or no ? todd : please . blair : you want to bring her back ? todd : so basically , you want me to do it your way ? blair : yes , just accept that you 're no help here , okay ? todd : huh . okay . blair : you 're pissed . todd : yeah , you 're making me pretty mad . blair : everybody makes you mad , todd . i 'm just the only one that can handle it . now , you admitted that when you decided to send us all to hawaii , that that forced those kids together . now you locking starr up into this house has forced her away . if you keep the bully tactics , starr 's going to disappear for good . [ scene_break ] cole : hey . you okay ? starr : hey , cole , do you remember patty piscatelli ? cole : uh -- black hair , right ? starr : yeah , and she was always in detention . well , me and langston once overheard her and her best friend talking , and she said that you ca n't get pregnant the first time you have sex . and me and langston actually laughed at her . cole : well , people are supposed to get pregnant . that 's how the species continues . starr : right , but not until after college . cole : hey , listen . if what you really want is an abortion , i 'll drive you there myself . i 'll wait for you , and i 'll take you home afterwards and take care of you . starr : you 're the best person that i know . cole : right . [ cole chuckles ] cole : well , it 's a little lumpy , but i -- starr : no , it 's -- it 's fine , it 's fine . cole , it 's fine . starr : cole , thank you . cole : for what ? starr : for leaving llanview . for trashing your life for me . cole : when i lost my mom , i did n't think i 'd ever be happy again . i mean , yeah , i knew i would survive , but i did n't think i 'd be happy . and that night with you -- i would do anything for you . you know that . starr : will you sleep with me tonight ? i mean , just -- just sleep . cole : i know what you mean . that 's one thing i regretted . your dad bursting in the door and -- we did n't get a chance to fall asleep together . starr : i would like that . cole : me , too . starr : all right .

[ scene_break ] gigi : i 'm upset and i said the wrong thing -- so sue me . what i meant to say is i -- the reason i threw stacy out was because i thought she drugged you . rex : yeah , because i told you she did . gigi : you were n't drugged , rex . you were a little drunk and you hit on stacy just like she said you did , and that 's why we are where we are now . rex : well , it 's nice how you just conveniently leave out the part about you jumping in the sack with brody . gigi : i needed someone i could trust . you know what ? this conversation is just a waste of time . let 's just work on the schedule . rex : no ! let 's work on what you said about my drug test . gigi : there 's nothing else to say . rex : well , maybe not for you . okay , but when you told me that , i was so out of it from walking in on you and brody i could n't focus , let alone take in anything else but -- you know , now that i think about it , it does n't make any sense . there are privacy laws -- the hospital could n't release those results to anybody but me . gigi : well , they did . rex : so if i called them right now , they 'd back up your story ? they 'll say that i tested negative for drugs in my system that night ? and then i 'll know that 's the real reason we 're not together anymore ?

[ scene_break ] gigi : i wanted to think you were drugged -- as sick as that sounds . at least it would mean that you had n't hit on my sister . until that lab tech called , that 's exactly what i thought happened . it killed me . why would i lie about that , rex ? rex : you tell me . gigi : okay , we 're just beating a dead horse here , you know that ? rex : you know what ? you 're right -- it does n't even matter anymore now , does it ? maybe you were just looking for a reason to hook up with brody -- mission accomplished . and here i am like a damn fool , dreaming about marrying you . gigi : what ? rex : this morning -- pretty pathetic , right ? gigi : no , 'cause -- i had the same dream . [ scene_break ] stacy : buddy , your dad would never cheat on your mom and i would never do that to my sister -- never , ever . shane : oh . i thought i figured it out .

[ scene_break ] greg : yes . obviously i know what happened at your school , des . i just wish you were n't there . destiny : i 'm okay . i 'm not the one that got the beatdown . greg : yeah , but having to stand there and witness it is bad enough . destiny : no worse than what i can see on cable . greg : okay . i get it . you 're tough , but i saw what todd manning 's injuries were , and i know you saw them happen , so talk to me . destiny : it was bad , but it was worse for starr and dani . i mean , he 's their father , and dani was just getting to know him . [ scene_break ] dani : just answer the question , mom . do you think todd did it , or not ? téa : i would be lying if i told you i did n't think it were possible . dani : it 's more than possible . he 's been violent with women before . téa : yes , but past behavior is n't always an indicator -- dani : okay . what if he was n't my father ? if he was n't my father and you did n't have this weird bond with him , would you even think about whitewashing him like this ? téa : that is not a fair question , mija . more importantly , it 's not relevant . he is your father , and i do have a bond with him . look , sweetheart . sometimes things are n't always as black or white as they seem , okay ? dani : i think it 's pretty simple . people are good or they 're bad , and todd manning has been bad his entire life .

[ scene_break ] rex : so then the nurse gave me this . gigi : she said when she found your dad at the hospital , that necklace was wrapped in his blanket . shane : so this is , like , your birth parent 's ? rex : probably . shane : they never came back ? rex : no , but even if they would have , they would n't have found me because -- remember the woman we told you about -- allison ? shane : the one who worked for mitch laurence ? rex : right . she gave me to roxy after roxy 's baby died . shane : but grandma did n't think that her baby died . she thought that you were hers . rex : yeah . i 'm sorry this is all so confusing . i just need you to understand why i have to take this trip because if i could find the person who made that necklace , maybe i could track down the person who has the other half . shane : you can find out who you are ? rex : well , i know who i am , shane , in a lot of ways . i 'm your father . that will never change , but i do have some questions . shane : so do i . gigi : well , go ahead , honey . ask whatever you need to know . shane : okay , so grandma thought she was your mom , but she really is n't . rex : right . allison lied to her . shane : so if grandma is not really your mom , then she 's not really my grandma , either . [ scene_break ] marty : are you seriously suggesting that hannah could be the one who 's lying ? john : we all want to put manning away , but it has to be by the book . we have to consider every angle . marty : how 's this for an angle ? he had motive . he had opportunity , and someone saw him push me . just because starr does n't happen to believe her -- cole : starr is never gon na believe anyone that says that her dad did it . nora : starr has been defending her father for so long , it 's second nature . does n't mean he 's innocent . cole : he 's guilty , okay ? we have an eyewitness . no matter what starr says , hannah has no reason to lie . [ scene_break ] eli : guess that 's why you did n't get any sleep last night , huh ? blair : how could i ? everything i said just made things worse . eli : it was a misunderstanding , blair . you assumed téa was obsessing over todd and whether or not he committed that crime . blair : yeah , but instead she was so worried about her daughter and who was gon na take care of her when she was n't there to do it . téa is a good mother , eli , and i told her that . little did i know that it was just the opposite of everything she needed to hear . eli : come on . do n't beat yourself up . blair : no . well , you did n't hear what i said . eli : well , it could n't have been that bad . blair : no . it was awful , i 'm telling you , terrible . i went on and on about what a waste of time it was to have todd in my life and how him being there was like -- eli : like what ? blair : like dying a little bit every day . i told her i was n't gon na do it anymore , that i had made the choice to live and that she should , too . know what she said ? `` what if i ca n't ? `` `` what if i ca n't ? `` [ scene_break ] téa : did you tell todd that , that you do n't want anything more to do with him ? dani : i told him i 'm not like you . i ca n't make excuses for him . i ca n't look the other way . téa : daniella , i do n't look the other way . dani : yes , you have . you say he 's complicated , but it 's more than that . he 's evil ! destiny : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to -- dani : no , no . do n't go . i 'm not afraid for you to hear the truth . it 's my mother who 's afraid . téa : you know what i 'm afraid of ? convicting someone who 's not here to defend himself . dani : you know what he actually said to me ? that i 'm a spoiled brat because of you , that , like , it would 've been better for me to be raised by a rapist . téa : he did n't mean that , daniella . daniella , he said that because he was hurt , okay ? greg : listen . let me give you a ride to school . i think téa and dani need time -- dani : no . we do n't . we 're done . téa : daniella sofia -- dani : no . i 'm walking to school . i need some fresh air . des , come with me . destiny : sure . i 'll see you later . téa : dani , i love you . god , she is so angry . greg : did you tell her about the diagnosis ? téa : i did n't have the chance . greg : well , it 's probably best that you did n't till you get a second opinion . téa : i already did . greg : when ? téa : this morning .

dorian : you know , i just have this feeling that everything is going to be all right from now on . michael : so , how long are you going to shut me out for ? marcie : there 's nothing to say , michael . michael : sure , there is . maybe you could say that you were right from the beginning and i never should have stuck my nose into dr. long 's business . marcie : yeah . but you did , and now we know what he 's doing , so i do n't understand how you can just let it go . michael : i do n't think you understand how serious this is , marcie . now , i got a good feeling that dr. long will probably go to just about any length to keep a lid on this . marcie : so ? so we let him keep on auctioning off people 's organs to the highest bidder ? michael : no . we let john handle it . marcie : we already tried that . you were the one who told me that he ca n't do anything else without more evidence . michael : then let 's give him some time to find some evidence . marcie : you know , you 're funny . you really are . so you 're going to try and tell me that when you 're back up on your feet again , you 're not going to march right back into dr. long 's office ? thank you . see ? i knew i was right . michael : i do n't know why i ever told you about this . marcie : because you would waste more time and energy trying to hide it from me . you know how nosy i am . i would find out anyway . michael : ok . so , what 's our next move ? whoa -- oh , there 's dr. long . he 's in his office , and he 's got paul cramer with him . marcie -- marcie ! damn it , marcie . viki : oh , sweetheart , you know what ? my prescription should be ready . i 'll go get it , ok ?

marcie : oh . natalie : we do n't want her to find out until starr is home safe . marcie : yeah . no , listen , i wo n't say anything , and starr is in my prayers . natalie : thank you so much . marcie : i 'll see you later . natalie : mom 's going to find out somehow . river : i ca n't even think about starr being scared . she -- she 's just never really fazed by anything , you know , and she puts on a good front , no matter what . dorian : sometimes we just ca n't protect our children ; no matter how hard we try . adriana : well , you protected me from my father . dorian : well , he was a very violent man with a terrible temper , and i could n't risk his finding out about you . adriana : well , maybe someday you 'll still tell me more about him . i mean , maybe someday . dorian : maybe . but right now i -- i do n't want to dwell on the past . i just -- i 'm on overload . river : i 'm going to go make a sandwich or something . you guys want anything ? dorian : no . david : yeah , river , i could use a grilled bacon and cheese , maybe a little avocado . river : right , whatever . adriana : i 'll come with you . what happened to travis ? river : i do n't know . is he here ? david : are you ever going to tell adriana about her dad ? dorian : i ca n't deal with that now . i really ca n't . i -- i 'm on overload . david : you 're right . let 's just focus on the future , when starr is home and we can start planning the wedding of the century . dorian : honey , i would marry you naked in front of the liberty bell if it would bring starr back sooner . david : now , i like the sound of that . blair : what is this ? todd 's still not back ? dorian : no , no , but i 'm sure he will be any minute . blair : hey , bo , what 's going on ? bo : the kidnapper 's call was made from the vicinity of jefferson heights . i have people on the way right now to canvass that area . blair : ok . bo : where 's todd ? blair : well , dorian told me that he went out for a walk , but i can not believe he 's not back . bo : did laser call after i left ? dorian : not as far as i know . blair : he would have told me , do n't you think ? i mean -- bo : i thought that laser might want to renegotiate after he saw that i was gone . kevin : oh , you think the kidnapper believes that the cops walked off the case ? bo : this guy is in over his head . he 's young , does n't know what the hell he 's doing . of course , todd does n't either . excuse me , what happened to the case with the money in it ? blair : oh , my god , bo , it 's gone ! oh -- bo : todd must have tried to cut a new deal . he 's probably on his way to meet laser right now . blair : oh ! kelly : well , maybe he can get starr back . bo : todd is an emotional wreck right now . he 's in no shape to handle this . that 's why i told him not to try it himself . too much can go wrong . starr : we 're going to see my dad , right ? laser : look , no more questions . you 're a smart kid , but you do anything stupid , someone could get hurt . you got it ? starr : yeah . laser : let 's get going . jessica : i bought something for jamie , but i think that we 're going to use it instead . antonio : cute . jessica : it 's our very first savings account . antonio : you do n't procrastinate , do you ? jessica : no . antonio : ok , then . my first contribution . jessica : and here is mine . natalie : oh , hey . all set ? viki : yep . you know , i told my doctor that my children are now totally stressed out trying to keep me stress free . oh , my god ! todd : it 's time . stick with me .
laser evidently demands more money than the agreed upon $ 500,000 , so dorian agrees to give the rest of the money to todd on the condition he does not pursue blair . todd agrees , and dorian makes the arrangements for todd to get the money . todd goes to the train station to leave the ransom , and laser hides with starr at the station . travis sneeks to the station , and tells todd he wants to help . todd grudgingly allows travis to help , but warns him to do exactly as todd instructs . blair has no idea where todd has disappeared to , but kelly later confesses to the change in plans . a devastated blair tells dorian she is going to lie down , but instead heads for the train station .

[ scene_break ] gigi : shane 's doing great . he loves his new school and teacher . he 's already got a new best friend , a little guy named -- viki : i know all about shane . i want to know about you . gigi : i 'm okay . i love my new job . it 's nice not to have to wear a uniform . and i get to use my brain for a change . oh , and the health plan . viki : do you have any friends ? gigi : besides you and marcie ? uh -- three are a couple girls at work . viki : good . um -- what about rex ? you knew each other in high school , right ? gigi : uh - huh . viki : he and shane get along really well . gigi : yeah , i worry a little bit about that . viki : why ? gigi : i do n't know how much time rex is going to have for shane once he 's married . viki : oh . and you think that that 's going to hurt shane ? gigi : rex keeps saying nothing will change , but it will . it has to . viki : gigi , is -- ahem -- is that why you 're so uneasy when rex is around ? gigi : i seem uneasy ? viki : uh - huh . gigi : yeah , that 's why . viki : okay . maybe you could talk to rex about that ? gigi : i ca n't . viki : why not ? you 're friends . gigi : hmm -- i -- i just never should have stayed in llanview . i should have went back to texas . viki : gigi , you love rex , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] adriana : they 're together all the time . brody : gigi and your fiancé ? adriana : yeah . and now they 're working together , too . brody : so -- so what ? adriana : so -- they went to high school together . they bumped into each other in paris , texas , last year , and now she 's moved here . and i just thought that if she found out that you were still alive , it would change everything . brody : and why is that ? adriana : because you have a child together ? you might still even be together if your mother had n't told gigi that you were killed in the war . brody : oh . so the bottom line is , you want me back in the picture so gigi stops sniffing around your man ? adriana : it 's for her sake , too . look , she obviously loved you enough that she made sure shane idolizes you . you saw his comic book . brody : so i step in , and everybody lives happily ever after ? adriana : that 's the plan . brody : well , i hate to burst your bubble , darling , but that ai n't happening . [ scene_break ] gigi : rex and i -- it 's not like we were married or anything . we were kids . viki : but that does n't mean your feelings were n't real . gigi : but it was over years ago . viki : was it ? gigi : for him it was . he 's getting married in a couple days . i guess i was just doing some wishful thinking , that 's all . you know , because he likes shane and shane likes him , and it 's not easy dating when you have a kid . not that rex and i are dat -- i 'm not making any sense . viki : honey , you do n't have to hide your feelings from me , you know . gigi : but what good does it do to admit them ? viki : i think maybe you should talk to rex . gigi : i ca n't tell him about this . he 's in love with adriana . he has to be , right ? he 's marrying her . only thing is -- viki : what ? gigi : he watches me . i can feel it . i 'm always catching him . and he keeps telling me that he 'll always be there for shane and me . and i do n't know -- i -- i do n't want to put words in his mouth -- viki : but ? gigi : but i 'm getting the feeling that -- maybe i 'm not -- i 'm not in this alone . that he 's feeling things , too .

[ scene_break ] cristian : you guys will get back on track . michael : well , unless you 're with the person who you really love , a marriage does n't stand a chance . cristian : hey , here 's the groom . now , does this guy look like the `` happily ever after `` kind of guy , or what ? michael : i have to say that he does . what 's up , shane ? rex : shane , this is adriana 's cousin , cristian . he 's an artist , too . cristian : hey . oh , you draw ? charlie : yeah , why do n't you show him that comic book of yours , hmm ? man : mr. vega , dr. mcbain , young man , could you come with me ? michael : oh . sure . charlie : listen , i did n't want to get into it in front of the kid , but i hope you understand about tonight . rex : sure . charlie : i mean , it 's only been a year or less that i 've been sober , so -- situations like that -- a bachelor party -- i just -- i mean , i 'm supposed to avoid people , places , and things that make me want to drink . rex : well , i totally get it . and i really respect what you 're doing . it 's not easy . charlie : well , the old way was even harder , believe it . rex : i 'm just glad my father 's going to be at my wedding . charlie : yeah . rex : you have no idea how much that means to me . charlie : yeah , i 'm glad that worked out . and listen , i also think it 's great that you 're able to make shane feel like he 's included -- and gigi , too . rex : well , i like having an old friend on my side of the aisle . charlie : well , that 's a pretty good - looking friend . [ charlie chuckles ] rex : if she were more than a friend , i would n't have insisted on her being invited to the wedding . if that does n't prove it , i do n't know what does . charlie : hmm . and what exactly are you trying to prove ? [ scene_break ] talia : hey , we ca n't quit now . antonio : trust me -- hey , i hate that ramsey was shoved down our throats . a corrupt agent , commissioner instead of bo ? talia : we need to shut him down . antonio : can we at least pick up the pace a little ? john : yeah , i think we have to . antonio : all right . john : you know , with manning making noise and cole still out there , ramsey 's a liability . talia : not to mention the fact that he 's still very suspicious . john : that 's never going to go away . antonio : well , i think we can assume that ramsey believes that you two are having an affair , and that with jamie 's health and -- and medical costs , i 'm skimming . john : it 's enough . talia : yeah , but do you think this is all too soon ? do you think he 's going to catch on to antonio ? john : it 's a risk . but we knew that going in . talia : you 're right . antonio : time to reel him in . [ scene_break ] michael : now , that looks classy . shane : `` classy `` -- what does that mean ? cristian : it means you 're going to a wedding and you look great . so sharp . girls are going to go nuts . shane : i look like a penguin . [ scene_break ] rex : you -- you think i have a thing for gigi ? charlie : well , i was just wondering what you meant when you said you had to prove something . rex : yeah , but i do n't . i do n't -- i do n't have a thing for her . charlie : then there 's no problem . rex : no , there is n't . but if there were -- okay , look , you 're my father , and i think that -- charlie : no -- okay , wait , wait -- no , and i -- hold on , i 'm glad about that . and -- but if this is going where i think it 's going , then you should be talking to bo . because bo 's known you a lot longer than i have . rex : no , bo is n't here . and i really need to talk to somebody about this . [ charlie sighs ] charlie : okay . well , i 'll give it a shot . rex : does marriage -- or the idea of marriage -- does it change people ? charlie : what people are we talking about here ? rex : because adriana seems a little different lately . or maybe it 's just me . maybe i 've changed and that 's -- that 's why -- charlie : maybe that 's why what ? [ scene_break ] gigi : he almost kissed me . viki : `` almost `` ? gigi : well , i slapped him in his face before he could . viki : why ? gigi : because he 's engaged , and he did n't really mean it . viki : well , how do you know that ? gigi : oh , rex still has a problem with jared . ugh -- it is n't anything , but rex is all over it . how jared 's coming on to me , how i ca n't trust jared . he said he was just trying to make a point . but i do n't think that 's what it was . viki : no , you think that he wanted to kiss you gigi : only he ca n't . viki : has it occurred to you that rex could be having second thoughts ? gigi : i ca n't bank on second thoughts . i have to focus and move on . i have shane to think about . i cat get all hopeful and sloppy . because if rex finds out -- viki : what ? that he finds out what , honey ? gigi : how i feel about him . it could hurt a whole lot of people . [ scene_break ] brody : look , i 'd love to solve your problem . but i do n't want a wife and kid . adriana : i know , i would be a big change from the way you live now . that 's for sure , but are n't you a little tired of margaritaville ? do n't you want to wake up in the morning and actually remember the night before ? brody : sounds pretty boring . adriana : oh , look , i 'm sure you and gigi could work it out . and shane is a great kid . brody : i 'm sure he is . adriana : is there another woman ? brody : several . and they 're all counting on me . adriana : brody , you 're a father , okay ? you ca n't just walk away from that . brody : you do n't know what you 're talking about . okay ? i 'm no father . adriana : not yet , but you know , you go to your first little league game -- brody : the kid 's not mine . adriana : what ? brody : the kid 's not mine . his father 's some guy named balsom . rex balsom . [ scene_break ] jared : look , when all this whole thing started , i did not realize how it was going to snowball . it 's like every time i turned around , i had to tell another lie to cover up the first one . natalie : i know what you mean . that 's what happens . but owning up is not easy . it ca n't get much worse . jared : trust me , as far as viki 's concerned , this is far worse . please -- please know that i never wanted to hurt your mom . it -- it was the timing . i mean , they had just gotten the d.n.a . results back , and they had finally accepted the fact that i was asa 's son . and then my father showed up . natalie : your father ? jared : my real father . i had n't -- i had n't seen him in -- in years . and apparently , he had been looking for me . and then he chose that moment to show up . natalie : i 'm sorry , i guess i just thought your real father was dead . jared : no , he 's very much alive . natalie : i mean , what is he like ? is he a criminal or something ? jared : no , no . it 's not like that at all . it -- in fact , you like him . natalie : i know him ? jared : his name 's charlie . natalie : charlie ? like my mom 's boyfriend , charlie ? that charlie ? that 's your dad ? natalie : charlie balsom ? [ jared sighs ] natalie : rex 's father is your father ? my brother is your brother ? jared : no , no , no , no . his name is charlie banks , and he is no more rex 's father than asa was mine . natalie : i so do n't get this . jared : okay , look , see , charlie -- charlie 's an alcoholic . and he left us when i was a kid . and then a year or so ago , he got sober , and he started to try to find me . he tracked me to llanview and told me that he wanted to make things right . natalie : when did this happen ? jared : oh , about the same time that i was claiming to be a buchanan heir . i did n't believe that he had changed . and his timing could n't be worse . so i told him if he really wanted to make it up to me , then he 'd just go away , and let me live my nice new life . natalie : and he agreed ? jared : he felt he owed it to me . natalie : okay , but why was he pretending to be rex 's father ? jared : he did n't -- he did n't want to . it was n't his choice . he did it for me . and through all this mess , the one thing that i have realized is that he really did change . natalie : god . rex really , really likes him . jared : and he 's trying to be there for rex . natalie : oh , my god -- and my mom is falling in love with a man who 's not even who he says he is . jared : but he loves her , natalie . natalie : this is going to kill her . jared : not if we do n't tell her . [ scene_break ] john : once manning stopped the kids from seeing each other , this was bound to happen . talia : did -- did cole say anything ? john : no , not about leaving . i realize now he was trying to get my take on -- on what he should do , how he should handle it . talia : yeah . john : you want to know what my sage advice was ? i told him to stop seeing starr for a while -- like that was going to happen . you know , kids that age -- they think love is the most important thing in the world . talia : well , is n't it ? look , i think his mother would have given him the same advice . talia : i 'm sorry , you know ? about all this . i -- pretending that we 're a thing . john : worse assignment i 've ever had . [ talia laughs ] john : the worst . talia : all right . so , smarty - pants -- john : hmm ? talia : you think you and antonio -- you can pull this off john : yes . talia : you know , still , i just can not figure out ramsey . he 's a pig , but sometimes he -- i do n't know -- he seemed sort of sweet with jamie . john : no . he was playing her . and he 's playing you . do not look for the good in him . i promise you , he 'll use it against you . [ scene_break ] ramsey : vega here yet ? eddie : not yet . that 's the third time this week . you should fire the man . ramsey : the man is a single parent with a kid . you want me to fire him ? that 's good to know . eddie : no , look , i just meant -- ramsey : ah . antonio : you wanted to see me ? ramsey : get back to work , eddie . so you missed roll call again . antonio : yeah , i know . i had to set something up for my daughter . ramsey : how 's she doing ? antonio : fine . fortunately , she does n't know anything . ramsey : my birthday 's not till august . antonio : it 's from the bust last week . that 's all of it , 30 grand . ramsey : i thought we might be a little short . yeah . this your conscience talking ? antonio : no . no , i 'd have taken the whole thing if i knew i could get away with it . [ scene_break ] adriana : i knew she was up to something . coming to llanview all the way from paris , texas . and i asked her point - blank if that was rex 's kid , and she said no ! are you sure you 're not his father ? brody : she was already pregnant when i met her . i like unwed mothers . they 're grateful . adriana : so you were n't even seriously involved ? brody : oh , we were involved . and we even lived together for a while . of course , i knew i was shipping out . adriana : well , why does shane think you 're his father ? brody : that must have been what gigi told him . adriana : but why would she do that ? i guess it 's easier to say that daddy was killed in the war than that he took off . but why would she lie to rex ? brody : he 's engaged to a knockout ? adriana : rex would have done right by shane . it does n't make any sense . brody : oh , i see . you expect it to make sense ? adriana : you 're right . it does n't matter . what 's important is that she ca n't take it back . shane believes you 're his father . he worships the idea of you . brody : what are you talking about ? adriana : shane 's daddy is coming home . [ scene_break ] shane : why do we have to wear this stuff again ? michael : women love them . shane : if you say so . [ scene_break ] rex : okay , this goes no further . charlie : understood . rex : i almost kissed gigi . i -- i know it was crazy and stupid , and luckily , she slapped me . charlie : gigi ? rex : of course . adriana does n't know . god , she 'd kill me . no , she 'd dump me and then she 'd kill me . charlie : which would be -- rex : the worst thing that ever happened to me . would n't it ? charlie : look , rex , i ca n't answer that for you . rex : cold feet . it 's got to be . that 's pretty classic , right ? day before the wedding -- the groom to get cold feet ? charlie : look , rex , you asked for my advice , so speaking as a guy who screwed up his own marriage big - time -- do n't go into this with any doubts . okay ? my advice is , you sit down and think long and hard about what it is you 're about to do , and why you 're doing it . [ scene_break ] gigi : maybe i should go away -- till after the wedding . viki : oh , that 's a good idea you go away for two weeks , and what does that change ? gigi : shane and i wo n't have to watch rex ride off into the sunset with evelyn evil . viki : oh -- gigi : that 's shane 's name for her . viki : i know . it 's in the comic book . gigi : oh , you 're right . it wo n't change anything . viki : no . gigi : besides , i ca n't yank shane out of school . he 's doing so well . viki : so you 'll stay here . and you 'll go to the wedding . gigi : oh , i ca n't even think about it . viki : gigi , i know it 's hard , okay ? but the coffee pot 's always on . and i 'm always here for you , okay ? gigi : i appreciate that so much . viki : anytime , anytime . gigi : it 's funny , you know ? when we were in paris , i was the one who had it all figured out . viki : hmm . gigi : i mean , my life was n't great , but i was settled , you know ? and now , you 're the one with the happy ending . viki : oh . [ scene_break ] jared : what difference does it make what charlie 's last name is ? natalie : it makes a world of difference . okay ? my mom deserves to know the truth . so does rex . he deserves to know that this is not his father . jared : but everyone is happy . i mean , your mother is in love , and rex finally feels like his world makes sense . natalie : oh , my god . okay , and what -- what happens -- what happens when -- when you 're involved in my life , and charlie 's involved in my mom 's life ? how do we make that work ? jared : okay , i 'm just saying that -- learn from my mistakes , okay ? do n't do something stupid before we think it through first . natalie : your mistake was that you did n't have a plan . you just ran off of impulse and you lied -- a big whopper . jared : yeah , and i 'm trying to make up for that , okay ? natalie : okay , all right . if you confess , all right , uncle bo is going to ask a ton of questions . i mean , he was not the police commissioner for nothing , all right ? when you pull one over on my dad and my uncle bo , they do n't like that . they 're going to want to know everything . jared : they 've investigated me before and they did n't find anything . natalie : but that was before your father was living with my mother . you ca n't just tell part of the truth and not expect the rest to come out . jared : so what do we do ? [ natalie sighs ] natalie : i know that the longer we keep this secret from my mom , the more it 's going to hurt her , so -- i have to tell her . jared : even if it breaks her heart ? [ scene_break ] antonio : commissioner , i have no idea why you covered for me . ramsey : oh , i think you know a lot . antonio : i do n't know a thing about you . except that you had to know that i helped myself . ramsey : well , $ 220,000 is kind of an odd number . drug dealers do n't usually make change . next time , you should take the whole 50 . antonio : right . and spend jamie 's last few years in the joint ? ramsey : if you were that worried about your daughter , why did you return the money ? antonio : because 30 grand -- do you have any idea how much medical care costs ? look , commissioner , she 's all i got . i 'm not going to lose her . i just got to find another way , that 's all . ramsey : well , maybe i can help . [ scene_break ] natalie : you 're right . finding out that charlie 's not who he says he is -- that -- that is going break my mom 's heart . jared : good . i 'm glad we agree . natalie : but i know the truth . and i ca n't keep this between us . i have to tell her . [ scene_break ] shane : hi . viki : hey ! so , how does my charlie look in his tuxedo ? shane : like a penguin , but everyone does . [ viki chuckles ] charlie : shane 's decided he 's going to get married in blue jeans . viki : that 's interesting . charlie : yeah -- he also got to meet adriana 's cousin , a guy named cristian . he 's an artist . viki : yeah . shane : he 's nice . viki : good . shane : he taught me how to crosshatch . is my mom upstairs ? viki : no , honey , she had to run some errands . she 'll be back soon . shane : oh . i 'm going to go run this upstairs , anyway . charlie and viki : okay . viki : so did you find a tux that you like ? charlie : uh -- `` that i like `` -- well , adriana picked one out for me , and let 's just say it 's stylish . viki : oh , dear . charlie : yeah . but i did have a chance to have a nice little talk with rex . viki : did you ? charlie : mm - hmm . viki : i had a nice little talk with gigi .

[ scene_break ] rex : happily ever after . uh - huh . [ next_on ] natalie : the real disaster will be if they find out who david vickers really is . gigi : tomorrow you are marrying the woman you love -- are n't you ? blair : i just hope we can find them before todd does . starr : dad ? todd : starr .
everybody is getting ready for rex and adriana 's wedding . but there are some issues . adriana meets with brody alone , urging him to find gigi and shane and take them back to where they came from , especially knowing that shane is his son . but at that point , he reveals to her that he knows shane is not his son . he knows that rex balsam is . rex talks alone to charlie revealing his `` uncertainty `` about committing to adriana . he also reveals that gigi and shane are important in his life . gigi has a similar conversation about the same thing with viki . after jared and natalie have slept together and he sees that she 's forgiven him about lying to her family about being one of them , he drops the next `` bombshell `` upon her , that charlie is his real father . antonio and talia reveal that they are still together and only scamming ramsey to believe that they have broken up and that she is now seeing john . but the three of them are all concerned that ramsey might be able to hurt them before they can pull off their scheme upon him .

's office and the victim is legendary . nora : with good reason . judge : you have new charges against him , fine . you file them , but you do n't hand out a walk on a serious crime like this because you do n't like the victim and because the defendant used to live with you and his mother dates the arresting officer . you want to demand my recusal , i 'll file a prosecutorial misconduct , and we 'll hand this file off to someone who knows a felony when they see one . is that how you want to go ? nora : no , sir . judge : anything you want to say ? philip : my client does not belong in jail . if you 're gon na reject this plea deal , then i reserve the right to argue that in court . judge : now , that 's what we 're here for . court is back in session . would the district attorney like to voluntarily amend the charge ? nora : yes , your honor . the commonwealth now charges cole thornhart with assault ... and attempted murder . judge : mr. thornhart , how do you plead ? cole : what happened ? philip : not guilty . just say it . cole : but we 're -- philip : you 're going to trial , all right ? just say it . we 'll talk about it later . cole : not guilty .

john : interviewing tomás delgado in connection with the attempted murder of todd manning . téa : you should n't even be holding my brother . tomás : detective , just get on with the questioning , please . téa : the circumstantial evidence you have is completely meaningless . john : your husband saw this guy in the window from where shots were fired . either your brother tried to kill todd or your husband is a liar . [ scene_break ] todd : i 'm going to be getting out of here soon . i do n't want to be a walking target again . starr : do you think your uncle really tried to kill dad ? dani : i just do n't know . i do n't know . i want to believe in my uncle tomás , but nate was so sure he 's up to something . starr : really ? dani : yeah . we kind of had a fight about it . starr : everything is ok now ? dani : they 're better . still , i thought my boyfriend would be by my side , no matter what . starr : yeah . you would think . [ scene_break ] james : well , thanks for letting me crash with you last night . i had no idea what i was gon na do . i promised starr i would n't spend one more night under the same roof with deanna . nate : no worries . mom was thrilled to have you ... james : yeah . nate : but i got to say , i do n't know why starr is making such a big deal about this . james : dude , i have no idea . deanna : oh , hey , sorry . i did n't expect you guys . i did n't expect you back so early . nate : ok . i get it . [ scene_break ] dani : my uncle tomás is an artist . he lived in paris . he paints . he plays the piano . he 's just not a killer . starr : yeah . i just do n't know him that well . i know that my mom liked him . blair : well , looks like we all had the same idea this morning . starr : ah . well , we wanted to bring dad something . dani : yeah . so we got him this e - reader so he does n't go stir crazy . blair : well , that 's very nice . he 's lucky to have two thoughtful daughters . starr : hmm , that 's us . blair : so you wo n't mind if jack goes first . he and his father have a lot of catching up to do . todd : this is my life we 're talking about here , and you owe me . look . i got to go . hey , pal . well , took you long enough to come see me . jack : i 've been under house arrest . todd : is that right ? what 'd he do ? what , did you bribe a teacher or something ? blair : oh , it was a lot worse than that . are you gon na tell him what you did to shane morasco , or should i , hmm ? [ scene_break ] gigi : hello . we have an appointment with dr. buhari for family counseling . shane : can you say it a little louder , mom ? they did n't hear you all the way in the cafeteria . receptionist : yes . right here , and will mr. balsom be joining you ? gigi : yeah . he 's parking the car . he 'll be here in a minute . [ scene_break ] rex : yeah . i have the tape of marty 's therapy session with me . do n't worry . i 'll try to figure out a way to get it back to where it belongs . natalie : i guess the fact that it got messed up with shane 's session -- i do n't know -- maybe it 's kind of a sign , you know ? you and gigi were n't supposed to hear what shane was saying to his doctor in private . rex : you were n't supposed to hear what marty said , either . natalie : tell me about it . rex : i am proud of you for turning off the tape before listening to it . could n't have been easy . natalie : ha ! i know , and it took all the willpower in me , i got to tell you , i 'm very curious as to what 's going on with marty . marty : did i hear my name ? [ scene_break ] dani : oh , no . looks like dad is about to find out everything jack has been up to lately . starr : as if enough stuff was n't going wrong already . dani : oh , tell me about it . starr : i want to see whoever shot dad go to jail , but i -- dani : starr , please do n't tell me you think my uncle tomás shot dad , too . starr : no . i really have no idea . i just do n't want to see you get hurt . dani : i wo n't . i wo n't get hurt . my mom thinks he 's innocent . starr : yeah , but dad -- dani : i know . i just do n't understand why dad said he saw my uncle tomás shoot him if he did n't . starr : yeah . i do n't know why he would , either . dani : i mean , my uncle tomás was so nice to me . he was there for me . you know , when all this first started happening and i was totally losing it , he helped me pull it together . he 's my family . then again , so was uncle eli , and he fooled all of us . i guess when someone is that good about lying about what they 're really up to , it 's hard for even the people closest to them to know . starr : why ca n't he just see what 's staring at him right in the face ? dani : he who ? starr : forget that i said that . dani : is it james ? starr : i 'm pretty sure that deanna is lying to him .

[ scene_break ] dani : deanna , james ' ex deanna ? she 's still here ? starr : oh , yeah . she 's staying in llanview so she can save up money to pay her lawyer for information on her mom . dani : her mom ? why ? starr : she never knew her . she 's been looking for her for , like , ever . dani : wow . starr : yeah , but i think that she 's here for james , too , even though she says that she understands that he 's moved on . dani : and you do n't buy it . starr : am i a total bitch ? i mean , i want this girl gone , and she 's going through something huge . dani : you know , when i found out todd was my dad , it was a really big deal for me . starr : so great . i am one . dani : no , not at all . look . whatever is going on with this girl , james is your boyfriend now , you know ? i 'd be pretty upset if nate 's old girlfriend just showed up out of nowhere and started hanging around him all the time . starr : right ? especially if they used to be in a serious relationship , and she 's drop - dead gorgeous , and she 's staying at his apartment . dani : she 's what ? starr : yeah . james stayed at nate 's last night , but that was one night , and there are a whole lot of nights to come . [ scene_break ] nate : i know . you 're crazy about starr . she 's got to know it , too . james : yeah ? well , i hope so because i keep reminding her , but i get that it 's weird for her having this girl that i used to be in love with staying in my apartment . nate : in love ? james : yeah , dude , but i do n't feel that way anymore . nate : are you sure ? [ scene_break ] todd : shane morasco ? is n't that rex 's little pipsqueak kid ? jack : see ? even dad knows he 's a geek . blair : what did you just say ? jack : i do n't know . blair : have you not learned a thing here , jack ? todd : what are you guys talking about ? jack : me and some friends just teased the guy . todd : ok . blair : and ? jack : we used the internet and said some stuff . blair : some vicious , awful stuff . todd : but , blair , that 's what they 're doing . i mean , that 's what all kids do , just using new technology . blair : no , todd . it 's worse than that . jack ? jack : we took a video of shane after gym class naked , and we posted that . blair : and ? jack : he flipped out . blair : and ? jack : he tried to jump off a roof and kill himself , but it 's not my fault the kid is a psycho , right , dad ? [ scene_break ] rex : hey , guys . hey . gigi : that was fast . rex : well , the parking gods were with me . dr. buhari : we 're all here . good . i 'd like to start today with a brief private session . oh , shane , sorry . i meant with your parents this time . gigi : oh , really ? dr. buhari : mm - hmm . rex : why do n't you do some of that work you have to catch up on ? shane : yeah . ok . rex : so why do you want to see us ? dr. buhari : i just have a few questions . first , how has shane seemed to you since we last saw each other ? gigi : hmm , he 's been quiet , but i feel like he 's a little less stressed . do n't you ? rex : yeah , definitely , especially since we 've been keeping him out of school , and he 's been doing his work at home . dr. buhari : i 'm glad to hear it . i also need to tell you , a tape labeled with your son 's name has gone missing . however , it was n't a recording of his appointment . the tape was mislabeled . it was actually of another patient 's session . [ scene_break ] natalie : you know , marty , next time you want to eavesdrop on a conversation , try to get it right , ok ? i was talking about a forensics test , and i was wondering about a certain party . you know , of all the things that they treated you for at st. ann 's , maybe you should add paranoia to that . marty : what are you doing here , natalie ? natalie : i work here . what are you doing here , marty ? marty : i 'm here to see john . natalie : right . you have to check in with him every time you see your shrink . marty : you know what ? my appointment is later . this is a personal visit . aw , heck . ha ! might as well tell you . john and i are back together . [ natalie laughs ] [ scene_break ] john : we have manning 's eyewitness account of having seen tomás in the window where shots were fired , and we have a syringe with his fingerprints on it found in todd 's hospital room . how do you want to explain that ? téa : wait a minute . you may have arrested my client , but he does n't have to explain anything to you , lieutenant . tomás : but i will . téa : tomás , you do n't have to say anything . tomás : you say todd saw me in the window . well , you were the one with him . did he look up and say , `` that 's tomás delgado up there with the gun `` ? did you see me ? john : you know , just for fun , tomás , i think i 'll ask the questions , and you still have n't answered . of all the people , why did manning i.d . you ? tomás : it 's clear the guy hates me . he 's already threatened to have me deported , right ? maybe saw it as an opportunity to get the police to do his dirty work for him . john : ok . what about the syringe in his hospital room with your fingerprints on it ? téa : were n't there other people 's prints on he syringe ? john : mm - hmm . téa : uh - huh . john : yeah , your daughter 's . are you suggesting the syringe was hers ? téa : i 'm suggesting that everything you found has another possible explanation . john : why do n't you explain that ? [ scene_break ] natalie : you and john are together -- right , right -- just like you gave birth to my baby . marty : i was delusional then . i 'm clear about everything now . natalie : oh , right , clear , clear like you saying you broke john and me up ? marty : i 'm not deluded anymore . i know what happened . natalie : ok . well , then you should know that john is with kelly cramer now . marty : eh , that 's meaningless . what john and i have means something . natalie : what john and you have is in your crazy , little head , marty . marty : really ? then why did john break a date with kelly to have dinner with me last night -- just the two of us , my house , very romantic ? we 're taking things slow for now , but this time , you wo n't come between us . [ scene_break ] dr. buhari : i assure you , the tape of shane 's visit is secure . it has been relabeled and properly filed , but i do feel terrible that another patient 's confidentiality may have been compromised . i explained how important strict confidentiality was when you wanted to know what shane had told me privately . gigi : ok . she 's onto us . ok . i took the tape . we did n't listen to it , and i know it was wrong to take it , but i was terrified . if shane is still talking about suicide , i need to know . dr. buhari : of course . i understand completely , and i want you to know confidentiality does not extend to situations where a patient confesses being a danger to himself or others . if that was the case , i 'd address it immediately . rex : so does that mean -- dr. buhari : shane has n't said anything that indicates that 's the case with him . gigi : ah , thank god . dr. buhari : but , ms. morasco , i need you to trust that this process does work and not try to fix everything yourself . rex : actually , gigi is n't the only one who tried to fix things . dr. buhari : go on . rex : i do n't want to get into specifics , but i sort of took extreme actions myself . [ scene_break ] blair : well , are you gon na say something , todd ? todd : how 's shane doing ? jack : he 's fine . blair : he 's alive . i really doubt that he 's fine after the psychological damage that you may have caused him . jack : i was n't the only one . blair : you were the ringleader . todd : is that true ? jack : what difference does it make ? you want to talk about bullying ? what about what shane 's dad did to me ? todd : what are you talking about ? what did he do ? jack : rex sent some thugs to beat me up . [ scene_break ] rex : i went pretty crazy when shane tried to jump off that roof . i just wanted to go after the person who caused it . dr. buhari : just like your son , you and gigi need to find healthy and legal ways to deal with your fear and anger about what happened . you do understand you were n't helping the situation , correct ? rex : yeah . all right . i know it was wrong . the bottom line is , i just wanted to make sure shane would n't be bullied again . i think i got my point across . [ scene_break ] blair : we were lucky that jack was n't seriously hurt . jack : yeah . mom 's boyfriend took care of the guys . todd : boyfriend ? oh , you mean tomás delgado . blair : tomás just happened to be there , and he is not my boyfriend , and we do n't even know if rex actually sent those guys into capricorn or not ... jack : come on . blair : and i do n't blame him if he did . jack : sure , because you do n't give a crap about me . blair : oh , jack -- jack : why do n't you just hit me again ? todd : what ? blair : i slapped him . i 'm not proud of it , all right , but it was a knee - jerk reaction after what you said . todd : what did he say ? blair : he said that maybe shane was asking for it , just like marty saybrooke . [ scene_break ] dr. buhari : shane , come on in . your parents have something they 'd like to tell you . rex : yeah . that 's right . i -- i took the law into my own hands . shane : wait . you mean , you hired those guys to beat up jack ? rex : no . i said , i took the law into my own hands . why do n't we just leave it at that ? shane : everyone already said i could n't fight my own battles . rex : shane , i am so sorry , ok ? what i did was not the way to handle this . gigi : and i have something to say , too . after we left here the last time , i took the tape of your private session ... shane : what ? gigi : but i did n't listen to it , shane , i swear . i just felt so guilty for not knowing what was going on with you . shane : you want to know what 's going on ? here . take a look . everyone else already has . i do n't get it . what 's the point of talking about my feelings when nothing has changed ? [ scene_break ] todd : marty saybrooke asked for it . where 'd you get that idea ? jack : from you . todd : from me ? jack : yeah . i 've heard you say it before . todd : no , no , no . no . never . i have never said that because it 's not true , i mean , and even if i had said it , why on earth would you repeat it ? jack : because i want to be like you . todd : you want to be like me . jack : yeah . why would n't i ? i mean , you 're rich , powerful , successful . todd : sit down . and i 'm also lying in this bed , because i ticked off the wrong person . i spent my entire life doing whatever the hell i wanted with little regard for how it affected other people . you know , i have been called bully before . jack : who cares what those losers think ? todd : do you mean losers like your sisters , losers like your aunt viki , losers like your mother , téa , those people , people we love ? that 's what they thought of me . jack : no . they 're wrong . todd : well , i wish that were true . listen . i know what it 's like to want to take advantage of someone weaker just because you can . then you get your friends involved . you have to realize that actions can have very harmful consequences , and i just do n't like what i 'm seeing here , man , because i 'm seeing me , and the last thing i want for you is to become like me . [ scene_break ] starr : i 'm afraid this whole thing with deanna is turning me back into a conniving little -- dani : you 're not a bitch , ok ? enough with that . starr : starr manning not a bitch ? that 'll be a first . dani : look , but you really are n't , though , starr . i mean , you care about people , you know ? you asked this girl to stay at your aunt 's place . starr : dani , when i invited her to stay at la boulaie , that was n't exactly an offer of friendship . dani : yeah , but that 's understandable . starr : i even offered your mom to help her find her mom , and i would 've even given her the money myself , but she already told me that she would n't accept my charity . dani : look . i 'm completely 100 % on your side on this , ok ? i mean , if you ask me , you 're handling this whole situation really well . starr : you think so ? dani : yeah , definitely . so what does james think about deanna sticking around ? starr : well , he says that he wo n't turn his back on her but that he does n't have feelings for her anymore . [ scene_break ] james : all right . look . starr is my future , ok ? she 's the girl i want to be with . deanna : hey , i just heard back from that job i interviewed for last night . james : oh , yeah ? deanna : yeah . they hired someone with more experience . james : i 'm sorry . that sucks . deanna : yeah . so i still have no money to pay that lawyer who can tell me about my mom and no money for a place to stay . nate : i know carlotta is not looking for anyone at the diner , but i could put in a good word for you at the country club . they 'll be hiring for the summer pretty soon . deanna : that 's really sweet . thank you . nate : just trying to help out my bro . james : oh , yeah ? well , since you 're mr . fix - it and all , you have any ideas where deanna could stay for the time being ? nate : as a matter of fact , i do . [ scene_break ] téa : what 's this ? john : tomás will tell you . tomás : how did you get that ? john : it does n't matter how i got it . the question is , are you gon na explain it ? téa : this is encrypted . john : cia does that sometimes with their high - level spook stuff . téa : are you suggesting -- john : i just want to know why the cia is so interested in you . tomás : look , detective . i 'm a musician . i travel all over the world . maybe they have me on some kind of watch list . john : tomás , unless you 're a very bad piano player , i do n't think the cia is gon na put an innocent musician on a watch list . téa : could i have a moment with my client , please ? john : yeah . sure . take your time . when i get back , i think we 're all gon na have a really good talk . keep an eye on them . téa : who are you ? [ scene_break ] marty : i have n't forgotten the way you insinuated yourself between john and me last time , but that 's not gon na happen again . you are out of his life now . kelly was a diversion because what john and i have , it 's real . natalie : heh . real nuts . marty , come on . snap out of it . you and john are not together , and you never will be . marty : really ? why do n't you ask john ? john : ask me what ? natalie : well , marty seems to be under the impression that you two are an item . marty : go ahead , john . tell her . [ scene_break ] todd : yes . i know what it 's like to be a bully , but i also know what it 's like to feel like you have nothing left to live for , honey , and to want to step out on the edge of a roof . jack : oh , come on . you on a roof . todd : yes . yes , me . you do n't believe me , ask your mom . blair : mm - hmm . it 's true . todd : so i think i know what shane must be going through right now , but i know what you feel like , and i 'm very sorry that i have not been here for you through all this , but here i am now , and i hope that i can help you become the kind of man that your mother would be proud of , that i 'd be proud of , and for you to become proud of yourself , ok ? all right . so ... would you just excuse us for a second ? i have to talk to your mom . blair : thank you for backing me up . todd : you think it 's over ? blair : i 'm not sure . would it have been over for you ? [ scene_break ] jack : you guys might want to come back later . i think this is gon na take a while . starr : how 's dad ? jack : well , he looks ok , but that bullet definitely did something to his brain . i mean , he 's talking like some sitcom dad .

[ scene_break ] téa : why does the cia have a file on you ? tomás : i told you . téa : and do n't give me some crap about a watch list , hermano . is this why you 've been out of touch all these years , huh , because you 're some sort of international criminal , huh ? what have you done ? tomás : a lot of things ... some bad things . téa , believe me , trying to kill your husband was not one of them . téa : huh .

[ scene_break ] tomás : téa , i 'm innocent , believe me . téa : i doubt that john will be able to use this file against you . i 'm guessing there 's nothing in it about the shooting , and it 's not like anyone can read it . tomás : téa , did you hear me ? i said , i 'm innocent . téa : damn it . i 'm asking you now as your sister , ok , not as your lawyer . why does the cia have a file on you , huh ? tell me what is going on . tomás : finally reconnected after all these years . do you know what that means to me , finally getting to meet my niece ? téa : what does that have to do with this file ? tomás : if you knew what i did , i might lose you and daniella forever .

[ scene_break ] dr. buhari : i agree that sending shane back into the school environment right now would be counterproductive , but i urge you not to think in terms of never . it 's taken a while for this situation to develop . it makes sense that it 's gon na take a while to work through it , but , shane , i 'd like to ask why you felt compelled to check your myface page . shane : i do n't know . i guess i just wanted to see if it stopped . dr. buhari : what those other kids say does n't define you . for our next session , i want you to make a list of your strengths , of the things about yourself that make you feel proud , and , rex and gigi , i want you to make your own lists , too , of what you perceive as your son 's strengths . in the meantime , shane , we have your assurance that if it starts to feel too alone in this , you know who to call . shane : yeah . i do . dr. buhari : good . then i 'll see you all next session . gigi : all right . thank you . grab his stuff . well , i do n't know about you , but i could think of a million ways that our son is special . rex : yeah . me , too , but is it really gon na stop those other kids from posting what they 're saying about him on - line ?

[ scene_break ] james : so i spent last night on my mom 's couch . nate : and i figured , instead of james moving out of his own apartment , why does n't deanna move in instead ? starr : so that means -- deanna : i do n't mind sleeping on the couch . really . i 'm good . james : deanna is gon na be staying at nate 's . nate : is n't that great ? dani : yeah . great . james : yeah .

natalie knows that marty has some secret that she is not revealing about natalie , john and their baby . and she tells john that he needs , at the very least , to find out from marty why she has told people that she is the reason why natalie and john broke up , when everybody assumes it 's because natalie got pregnant by another man and lied to john about it . dr. buhari gets the correct respective tapes of marty 's and of shane 's private therapy sessions . shane gets on his computer to find out that jack 's friends still want to torment him and jack still feels no remorse . when todd awakens , he affirms to jack that he does not believe that it 's ok for his son to be a bully to shane regardless of todd 's own past behaviors in his life . john interrogates tomas delgado , very certain that he shot todd although he has no substantiated proof . tea represents her brother but privately asks tomas what he is hiding from her . james knows that starr is not ok with deanna staying at his home and wants her to leave town . nate then offers to let deanna stay with him and his mom . and dani reveals that she is not ok with that .

bo : yeah , he 's maybe watching us right now . listen , i want you to walk away from me . go over to todd and that kid , and you get them out of here . this guy wants the money ; we 're going to wait him out . blair : what if he does n't bring starr ? bo : i 'll find starr . just get todd out of here before he screws this whole thing up . paul : should n't you be out looking for todd manning 's kid ? john : my point is bo 's not going to tell me to back off investigating someone we know is dirty . paul : hmm . no , this is about natalie . john : no , this is about the chopper runs you 're making from the hospital . paul : well , that 's what i do . that 's why they hired me . i mean , it may look a little weird if i did n't make any runs , would n't it ? i mean , face it mcbain , you got nothing on me . john : wrong , again . viki : todd ? oh -- hi , todd , it 's viki . look , i just learned that starr is missing , and i do n't really know exactly what 's going on . i just want you to know i hope you find her very quickly , and if there 's anything at all i can do , please use that beeper that you gave me , ok , because i never go anywhere without it , ok ? and take care , i guess . bye . hi . so how 's he doing , huh ? nurse : no change , but we 're always hopeful . viki : yeah , me , too . thank you . hi , darling . oh , i 'm sorry i 'm visiting my troubles on you again . but you know what ? at this point you 're the only person i can talk to without having to censor myself . ben , little starr is missing somewhere in new york , and no one would tell me because of this damned heart condition of mine . they think i 'm too frail to deal with my own feelings , for heaven 's sakes . honey , this is no life . my children wo n't tell me anything at all that they think might upset me because they think it 's going to kill me . frankly , i 'd rather battle my own heart than not be able to feel anything . i 'm so scared for starr , you know ? i mean she 's totally todd 's child . she 's tough and she 's fierce and she 's funny . but she 's got to be so scared . i mean i 'm sure she 's pretending not to be , you know , but -- sort of like me . because that 's what i keep doing . blair : come on ; let 's get out of here . come on . todd : what are you doing here ?

todd : she said somebody 's going to follow this guy and get him . she must have meant bo . she must have seen him , which means the kidnapper might have seen him , too . blair : well , if she saw him that means she 's here ! todd : that 's right . blair : well , come on ! rex : you sure you do n't want something stronger ?

natalie : i do n't know . i mean , he 's fun , but -- rex : he 's not the guy . natalie : cristian was the guy . rex : maybe there 's more than one . natalie : anyway , my point is that i -- i got too much on my plate right now to be worrying about you having some bill collector come and break your legs . rex : i 'm handling it . natalie : with my money . rex : uh , this was just a loan , all right ? this restaurant 's costing me three times as much as i planned . i wanted to be up and running by now , but this lousy contractor is dragging his heels . and on top of it all , roxy needed money . natalie : how much ? rex : more than i could afford . well , she was so freaked out ; i gave it to her anyway . natalie : rex , next time just please send her to me , ok ? rex : i 'll have to . the well is dry . listen , you sure you do n't want some ? it 's the best . natalie : hmm , let me guess -- lindsay rappaport is a wine expert . rex : you know , so am i . natalie : i just never figured you for the hot - mama type . rex : look , lindsay 's great . we have a good time . natalie : but ? rex : she 's not jen . natalie : oh , my god , you have totally lost it ! you realize those two are a mother - daughter disaster area . rex : maybe lindsay is , a little . natalie : hello ! rex : i am not going there with you , nattie . you ca n't be objective about jen . natalie : well , at least i am thinking above my waist . rex : but you do n't know jen , ok ? she was kind of lost for a while . natalie : a while ? rex : yeah , and she got over it . now i 'm the one who 's lost . natalie : yeah . yeah , you 're a total idiot whenever she comes around . you know , i 've never seen you act that way before . in fact , i never thought i 'd ever see you beg for anything or anyone . rex : wait , wait , wait -- i 'm done groveling , all right ? she does n't want to be with me -- fine , i 'll leave her alone . which makes me feel even worse . natalie : i am proud of you , you know ? i mean , look at everything you 've accomplished since you came to llanview . you got the club , this apartment -- rex : and i 'd give it all up if i could be with jen again . natalie : god , she is not worth it . rex : yes , she is , ok ? and do n't tell me that i 'm crazy , all right , because you 're the one that 's kissing paul cramer when you 're really in love with john mcbain . matthew : bo 's going to find starr , is n't he ? nora : hi . daniel : hey . oh , hey , kiddo . how 's it going ? matthew : starr 's missing . daniel : yeah , yeah , i know . you know , and the l.p.d . really appreciates you being here to help out . matthew : see ? daniel : but you know what ? you got to keep your strength up . now , this is what all the cops eat . matthew : can i ? nora : what do you say ? matthew : thanks , mr. colson . daniel : you 're welcome . any word ? you know , you must be really worried about your friend , huh ? do n't be . i 've heard all about how smart starr manning is . matthew : smarter than me , even . daniel : oh , well , i do n't know about that . remember when troy maciver had you ? you were incredibly smart and incredibly brave . you got away and you got back home all by yourself . matthew : well , starr 's not scared of anything . daniel : well , that 's good . that means she 'll be able to take care of herself just like you . matthew : do you think he 's right ? nora : he 's the district attorney . daniel : i think starr is going to be just fine . matthew : i 'm hungry . can i have another one ? nora : come on , i 'll help you open it . dorian : an accident victim was brought into the emergency room . he died on the operating table . his driver 's license said he was a donor , so the usual procedures took place . he was put on life support , and the team came in to harvest the organs . marcie : harvest ? that sounds a little -- michael : no , it 's a very respectful process , truly . dorian : only in this case , a heart had already been taken out . marcie : you 're kidding me . someone came in , cut out the heart , and then just walked out with it . michael : it 's long , i know it . dorian : he has been very protective of those donor files . michael : yeah , he 's guilty as sin . dorian : yeah . but we need proof . marcie : well , i 'll get it . i mean , i do n't know how i 'll get it , but i 'll find it . michael : well , let 's think about this , ok ? now , a heart ca n't stay alive outside the body for very long . it 's got to be kept cool , and it 's got to be kept in a special solution . marcie : yeah , which means it 's probably inside of that helicopter that 's about to take off right now , michael . michael : it 's possible , but i think that we should really think this through . marcie : michael , come on . dorian : and we have to proceed very , very carefully , because if dr. long is so depraved that he 's stealing organs , who knows what he 's going to do if somebody finds out . michael : you think maybe we should call the cops ? dorian : you know , sometimes , if you want something done fast , you just have to do it yourself . nora : we need to talk to you a little bit about starr . matthew : is she ok ? nora : well , yeah , i mean , you know , her parents are -- they 're quarreling a little bit here , you know ? and it 's really hard on starr . i know you like her . bo : and , matthew , you know , we need you to be strong about this , ok ? are you strong ? let 's see . all right , look -- seriously , you ca n't do anything that starr asks you to do that you know is wrong . nora : that 's starr or anyone else for that matter , ok ? man : what the hell ? that 's my beer ! blair : oh , todd ! oh ! stop it ! stop it ! stop it ! stop it ! get away ! get off ! todd ! officer : hey , what 's going on ? break this up ! hey , break it up ! roxy : wow . this is better than the entertainment in atlantic city . man , i hope i have enough cash for a cab . roxy : oh , good ! all right ! viki : you know , my children -- they treat me as if i 'm going to die at any minute . i mean i know they 're afraid . i 'm afraid , too . i pretend not to be and i try really hard not to be , but i am really scared . you know , i just came back from a conference in chicago , and no one there knew i was sick . so they treated me as if , you know , as if i was still the same as i always was -- a leader , powerful and interesting and strong . not somebody whose heart is falling apart . but i was terrified the whole time . i was so afraid to -- to laugh too loudly or debate a point , get upset , or -- or even stay out late . i hate it . i hate it . i hate having to think before i can feel . and i keep thinking i would n't be so afraid if you were here . i need you , ben , i need you . i have to tell you , sometimes , sitting here with you ; i think it would be just so easy to just let go . i feel like i could just let my heart fill up with all the love that i feel for you until it just explodes , takes me away from here . dorian : no , viki . you ca n't leave us . natalie : so what exactly happens when lindsay finds out that you 're not in love with her ? rex : lindsay 's cool . natalie : yeah , right . rex : it 's a sex thing . the sex is unbelievable . natalie : oh , gross . rex : she 's -- she 's a great lady , and she bailed me out when i could n't make my first loan payment to r.j . natalie : you could n't make your first payment ? rex : i 've got the money . natalie : hold on , rex , what are you doing borrowing money from r.j. , anyway ? rex : look , it 's fine . as soon as my new place opens , i 'll pay him off . natalie : my god . ok , r.j. and lindsay are in business together . how do you know that you can even trust either one of them ? rex : ahem . well , did it ever occur to you to not trust some skeeve flyboy who blows into your life and then wants to run off with you ? [ knock on door ] roxy : i 'm so glad you 're not at your sugar mama 's . got any available cash ? rex : welcome home . roxy : yeah . yeah , thanks . natalie : you need more money ? roxy : i was just joking about that . because i just did the makeup for this hot show in atlantic city . you know , the full monty and the glitter in all the right places . natalie : spare me . roxy : you know , by the way , you could use a little glitz , too . how about a makeover ? i 'll give you insider price . natalie : no . no . i 'm not in the mood for it . roxy : oh , come on ! honey ! every girl needs a little ha - cha - cha . oh , my god ! what is this ? laser : i did n't even get the money . you 're not worth the trouble anymore , kid . starr : what 's that supposed to mean ? laser : you 're a smart girl . figure it out . marcie : what ? paul : what are you doing on the helicopter pad ? john : hey , how 'd it go ? bo : not good . todd and blair -- they spotted starr , but the kidnapper -- he spotted them , panicked , and he dragged starr out of there . we lost her . john : did you get a look at the guy ? bo : yeah . yeah , i 'm going to call the nypd , see if it 's the guy they think he is . but starr did seem ok , you know ? that little girl knows how to put up a fight . john : yeah . i 'm not sure that 's such a good thing in this case . bo : well , if it were matthew , i 'd hope that he would fight like hell . bo : does this mean you 're going to be an astronaut ? matthew : no , not an astronaut . i 'm going to be a cop like you . bo : oh . matthew : do they have bad guys in outer space ? bo : oh , sure . in outer space you can hear them coming . it 's like -- [ bo makes breathing sounds ] matthew : so you can be the commissioner in llanview and i 'll be the commissioner in the universe . bo : cool . viki : any news on starr ? dorian : no . viki : i feel very powerless , you know . dorian : well , certainly you should n't lose hope . you 're supposed to be the strong one . viki : dorian , she 's a little girl . dorian : a very extraordinary little girl . viki : you know you were eavesdropping on a very private moment . dorian : good thing . viki : maybe . so you really have heard nothing at all ? dorian : i just got a phone call from blair . apparently , there 's been some sort of foul - up with the ransom drop . viki : ransom ? you mean starr was kidnapped ? dorian : some monster is holding her in new york , wants a million dollars . i put up half of the ransom , but -- oh -- viki : oh . dorian : oh , i 'm so sorry . i should not have said anything . just hold on . keep -- just breathe deeply . viki : ow . dorian : hold on , hold on . nurse , quickly . we need a doctor ! stat ! get that in here .

[ scene_break ] starr : cole ? cole ? cole : hey . starr : hey . cole : good morning . did you just wake up ? starr : yeah , i did n't know where you were . cole : well , i did n't want to wake you just to tell you i was leaving . i know it 's really important for you to get a lot of sleep . so i thought that i could sneak out and be back before you woke up . starr : it 's so late . cole : how did you sleep ? starr : i slept okay . i woke up a couple of times in the middle of the night , but then i would look over and see you . cole : really ? starr : yeah . cole : i did the same thing . oh , i got you something . starr : you did ? i love presents . what did you get me ? what ? cole : there was a t - shirt shop on the boardwalk that was already open . starr : okay , how did you know that my name was `` oh , great one `` ? cole : i know everything about you , starr manning . [ scene_break ] blair : hey , john . john : hey . blair : any word on the kids ? john : they covered their tracks pretty well . i just wanted to come over and fill you and todd in on what we 've done so far . hey , buddy . blair : oh , i have n't seen todd since last night . john : oh , yeah , why is that ? blair : well , after you left , todd and i had one of our biggest fights ever and that is saying a lot . i was trying to get him to see that i think he 's being unreasonable , this whole situation with -- with starr and cole . john : any luck ? blair : oh , he 's probably out there trying to buy , bully , scare somebody into telling him where starr is . i just hope nobody gets hurt in the process . [ scene_break ] markko : all right , so you pretend like you 're pregnant for a while , you know , fake puke in the morning , that kind of stuff . langston : markko , dorian is a doctor . i mean , i 'm surprised she has n't put two and two together already . markko : what does that mean ? langston : hmm , let 's see , starr and cole go missing and then all of a sudden i 'm pregnant ? i mean , she 's bound to figure it out sooner or later . markko : hey , later is all right , sooner could be a disaster . if mr. manning finds out that cole got starr pregnant , the next place any of us will see cole is at his funeral . langston : oh , this is all such a mess . markko : i know , i know , but it will be all right , i promise . langston : what ! markko : what the -- langston : stop it ! what the hell are you doing ? todd : i 'd like you to tell me where starr is or i 'm going to kill you . langston : get him down ! todd : no , not until one of you talks . markko : we do n't know where they went , man . todd : that 's not what i want to hear , man . markko : we do n't know where they are . we already told that to detective mcbain . todd : well , that 's detective mcbain . you 're dealing with me now . i know you helped starr run away , so -- markko : yeah , even we did , that does n't mean we know where they went . todd : i disagree . i think you do know . i think you do know . and if you do n't tell me , i 'm going to turn you into carne asada . [ scene_break ] john : you know , i was kind of hoping he would n't do a replay of when he was trying to find marcie . blair : yeah , well , some things just do n't change , john . john : hmm , well , hey , here 's what we 've done . we faxed -- we faxed cole and starr 's photo to the bureau and we sent it out to youth hostels all over the country . blair : well , why do you think that they would go someplace like that ? john : well , you know , i was thinking they 're young and they 're broke and they may want to go some place , you know , where they wo n't stick out , you know ? so , uh , we subpoenaed the records for every toll booth within a 200 mile radius of llanview . and hopefully , every trooper from here to oregon has a photo of starr and cole and the license plate number of the car they 're driving . blair : so they were in cole 's car . john : that 's what nora said . blair : you know , john , i -- i just ca n't figure out why starr would leave now . john : i guess -- todd would n't let her see cole . blair : no , things were changing . i mean , todd actually that if starr stayed away from cole for six months , then they could see each other . and the night that starr left , we had a great time as a family . we were playing , you know , family poker night . and i am telling you , starr was having a very good time . and if things were changing , why would she leave now ? [ scene_break ] cole : there 's , uh , something else we need to talk about . starr : what ? cole : well , i know you hate going to the doctors , but , um , this lady at the diner , she recommended a really good ob - gyn . starr : you told somebody that you needed an ob - gyn ? cole : no , i said my wife did . starr : your wife ? cole : i do n't want to freak her out too much . so i made you an appointment for next week . starr : so you made me an appointment without asking me ? cole : i told you i 'm going to take care of you . starr : you know , you really did think of everything . cole : well , hey , it 's the least i could do for `` oh , great one . `` starr : if you knew how i got that name -- cole : you saved a guy 's life and insisted on being called `` oh , great one . `` starr : who told you that ? cole : i 've got my sources . starr : yeah , well , i -- i wanted to save this guy , but my dad did n't believe me about it . just like he did n't believe that i love you . cole : your dad does n't know where we are , and he 's not going to find us , okay ? starr : okay . cole : all right , well , you have to get dressed because we have a job interview . starr : where at ? cole : you know that funny looking restaurant , like , halfway down the boardwalk ? starr : get out of here . the one with the crab carapace as the roof ? cole : i like a girl that knows her marine biology . starr : well , i wonder how much it pays . i , um -- cole : i 'm -- i 'm going to go find something to put those flowers in . starr : you know what , cole ? wait .

[ scene_break ] rex : i thought you should know that i talked to my dad about us . gigi : about you and me ? rex : i told him how i almost kissed you . gigi : oh . charlie must have loved hearing about that . rex : after i talked about it , i realized that i should apologize . gigi : you were trying to make a point about how jared was using me , i get that . but there 's nothing going on between jared and me , so i accept your apology . it 's over . rex : no , it 's not over . gigi : i do n't need you to protect me from jared , rex . i can take care of myself . rex : i did n't try to kiss you because of you and jared . i tried to kiss you because of you and me . [ scene_break ] layla : rex has a son . you ca n't keep that from him . adriana : why should i have to tell him ? gigi kept it from him for 10 years . layla : oh , so you 're doing this as a favor to gigi ? adriana : she has told that little boy that his father was a hero , and now he will be . layla : brody is n't his father . he also does n't look like much of a hero anymore . adriana : he will be when i get through with him . layla : okay , can you just admit what this is really about ? adriana : what , that i 'm sick of gigi ? that i do n't want to start my marriage as shane 's stepmom ? or hang around while rex and shane bond , or gigi and rex discuss their son 's future ? well , call me a bitch , but yeah , i do n't want that . layla : i 'm not calling you anything . i 'm just saying if you found out , rex is going to find out . maybe not from you or gigi , but brody is a wild card . adriana : i gave him money -- a lot of it . and he agreed to pretend to be shane 's father and distract gigi and keep her away from rex . layla : wow , that 's a much healthier way to start out a marriage -- bribe someone to keep your future husband in the dark about his own kid . adriana : i do n't need your sarcasm right now . i need my best friend . layla : i am your best friend , and i 'm going to tell you the truth . if rex ever finds out about this , you 're going to lose him no matter what , and you 'll have no one to blame but yourself . [ scene_break ] rex : forget it , look , i do n't even want to talk about it . i 'm sorry . gigi : uh , i ca n't . you said that almost kiss had to do with you and me -- rex : yeah , i did say that . gigi : except , there is no you and me . rex : there was , once . gigi : until you packed up and left one day without even telling me . rex : yeah , and that was really stupid , and i did n't realize how stupid and thoughtless it was until started hanging out with you again . gigi : oh , come on , rex . from the moment shane and i stepped foot in llanview , you 've gone out of your way to make sure everyone knows that you and i were just pals in high school . rex : i know , i -- i guess i was n't talking about how i felt about you in high school . gigi : okay . rex : i was talking about how i feel about you today .

[ scene_break ] téa : look . i hope that hannah or whatever the hell her name is is lying . todd : oh , but you 're gon na represent me whether or not i 'm innocent . is that right ? téa : since when has that made a difference ? i 've defended you when i actually knew you were guilty , and i 've gotten you free of -- todd : who cares ? it 's different this time ! i 'm innocent this time ! now you find this whack job ! téa : ha ! todd : starr says she 's mental . téa : mental ? todd : yes . she 's mental . apparently , she took a bunch of pills and tried to kill herself . now , you can use that . you do whatever it takes to get her to tell the truth . [ scene_break ] cole : starr , were you -- were you with your dad ? starr : yes . he 's badly injured , and he feels like he 's losing everyone that he cares about . dani wants nothing to do with him , and he feels like he 's losing everything . cole : ha ha ! but somehow , he managed to bribe a judge to reject my plea bargain . starr : okay . you do n't know that , cole . cole : yes , i -- yes , i do , all right , and john knows it , too . starr : does john have proof ? cole : why else would a judge reject the deal that the d.a . gave me ? it makes no sense , all right ? now i have to wait in jail until my trial , all right ? i ca n't even see my little girl . starr : you almost killed my father . cole : he pushed my mom down the stairs ! starr : no , he -- no , he did n't . if you want to blame anyone , do n't blame my dad . you blame hannah . [ scene_break ] john : starr was with manning when i confronted him about bribing the judge . marty : so she chose to be with todd instead of cole at his arraignment . you know , i asked you earlier if you thought hannah could be lying about todd pushing me , and you did n't really give me a straight answer . if there 's any doubt in your mind , i really need to know about it . [ scene_break ] kelly : i 'm not ready to jump into anything right now . i am trying to start my life over . even if i was , i ca n't focus on anyone or anything until i find out who murdered my mother . reed : i understand that 's your priority , but thinking about who or what killed your mother is gon na be tough . you 'll need something to take your mind off it . kelly : and that 's with you ? reed : you 're not with kevin anymore , are you ? kelly : no . i 'm not . reed : then what 's to stop you from having a little fun ? you still have n't given me one good reason not to explore what this is between us . kelly : we 're attracted to each other . what 's there to explore ? reed : we go out , have a good time . kelly : then what ? where does that lead ? reed : kelly , i 'm not asking you to marry me . i just want to have dinner with you tonight .

[ scene_break ] kelly : dinner ? tonight ? i ca n't . reed : tomorrow night , then . that 's as long as i 'm willing to wait . come on , maybe we 'll fight , decide we ca n't stand each other , and then you can rid yourself of me once and for all . kelly : yeah . i 'm sure . reed : what 's the worst that can happen , we get to know each other and want to see some more of one another ? kelly : that 's not the worst thing that could happen , reed , not even close .

[ scene_break ] marty : be straight with me . please , i need to know . is hannah lying about todd pushing me ? [ scene_break ] hannah : i told you last night that i was n't lying about this . you know how much i wish this were n't true , that i did n't see your dad push dr. saybrooke , but i know what i saw , and i 'm totally freaked that your dad is gon na do something awful to me . cole : hannah is terrified , but she 's still here for me . marty : do you think hannah made this up ? starr : of course she 's here for you . it 's all part of her little plan . she wants to make sure that she looks like `` the supportive friend . `` cole : does n't mean you could n't be here , either . starr : look at her . she still would 've gotten exactly what she wanted . she 's right here . she has ringside seats to you and me fighting . this is exactly why she lied about my father , cole . she 's trying to break us apart . cole : you 're the one breaking us apart ! marty : cole , what 's going on ? hey . [ scene_break ] téa : i ca n't tamper with a witness if that 's what you 're suggesting . if i do , i 'll get thrown off the case . i have to play by the rules this time . todd : since when ? téa : since i almost got disbarred the last time you got into legal trouble . todd : oh , so you 're holding a grudge . that 's terrific . you want me put away , do n't you ? téa : you have no idea how much i do n't want that . todd : uh - huh . i do n't know if you recall , but i asked you to take this case for dani . téa : yeah . i remember . todd : okay . well , i 'm asking you to take this case and do this . go the distance for her if not for me . my chance of ever having a relationship with her is at stake now . i just do n't know that that means anything to you . do you have any idea how important this is ? téa : yes , todd . i do know how important this is . you 're all dani has left , all right ? todd : what the hell does that mean ? [ scene_break ] cole : and starr 's dad snowed her again , convinced her that hannah is lying . starr : look . i know that you believe her , and i know that this is a really hard time for you , losing your baby . i mean , i wanted to die when i thought that hope was dead ... marty : i know . starr : and i know that my dad has done awful things to you , and you have every right to hate him , but i 'm telling you , this is one crime against you that my dad did n't -- he did not commit this . i would bet my life on it . marty : you know what ? i 've seen what you 've been through with your father , and i wish you did n't have to go through it again , but right before this happened , he told me that he wanted cole and my baby and me to be gone , gone , so i have no doubt in my mind that he tried to get 2 out of the 3 by pushing me down those stairs . starr : you did n't see him do it , did you ? marty : heh . starr : can you really put him away without knowing for sure ? [ scene_break ] [ bell rings ] rex : hello ? gigi : anyone here ? rex : it 's weird . it says they 're open . gigi : maybe we should check in the back ? rex : yeah . might as well . morasco , i guess i do want to know who my parents are . gigi : i know you do , balsom , but i understand if this whole thing is like being on a roller coaster . rex : i never thought of it like that . gigi : it 's worse , so you should n't feel bad if you feel like throwing up . rex : i 'm glad you came with me , morasco .

[ scene_break ] todd : what do you mean , i 'm all dani has left ? you going somewhere ? téa : i just mean that dani has pretty much written me off , too , now that i 'm defending you . todd : oh . you had me worried there for a second . téa : you should be . if i do n't get you free of these murder charges , dani is not gon na feel like she can go to either one of us .

[ scene_break ] natalie : i 'm not gon na do anything about john because there 's nothing to do . john is with marty , and they 're grieving the loss of their child , so there 's nothing to do , even if i wanted to , which i do n't because he accused me of hurting marty . kevin : so , what , you flew here because you 're over john ? so now , what , you and i go out to the london singles scene together ? natalie : why not ? is that a problem ? kevin : not at all . i mean , i would love to have you . you know , there 's always a place for you here at b.e . if that 's what you want , but if it is n't -- natalie : i mean , it does n't matter , does it ? i mean , i ca n't do anything about it . kevin : oh , come on . do n't sell yourself short . you flew here to see me . ca n't do the same thing for john ? natalie : you mean , like you do with kelly ?

[ scene_break ] john : yeah , it 's mcbain . look . i 'm bringing cole in now . yeah . cole : you think the reason why i 'm here is because hannah is lying ? i think it 's because your dad bribed the judge . i guess i 'll have a lot of time to figure it out in jail . starr : this was supposed to be one of the happiest times of our lives , making plans for my senior prom . i love you , cole thornhart . no one can change that -- not hannah , not my dad , no one -- and i know that you love me , too . john : hey , it 's time to go . cole : hey , starr , tell hope i love her . [ scene_break ] blair : i used to be able to wake up every morning and count on hating those 3 women -- marty , kelly , téa . now i got nothing . téa is dying , and i 've been crying like a baby all day . you know , this is your fault . eli : what ? blair : i 've turned into a softy . yeah . i was never like this until we started going out . eli : oh , i see . well , i 'd love to take credit , blair , but i 'm afraid you 've had this problem long before i came along . it 's called a big heart , and you 've got one , even though you do n't like to admit it . so what are we gon na do about téa ? i know you want to do something . blair : oh , she needs somebody , elijah . she ca n't do this alone . i mean , she 's making some really bad decisions about how she 's gon na handle the rest of her life . [ scene_break ] téa : thanks , michael . [ scene_break ] todd : yeah . she 's a student at l.u . her name is hannah o'connor . i just want you to find her . hannah : i 'm right here .
after cole is sentenced , starr comes to the courthouse and urges cole , marty and john not to believe hannah that todd pushed marty . yet they all believe that todd must have something to do with the judge having cole sent away without any leniency for assaulting todd . tea attempts to drop the bombshell upon todd that she is dying . but he is obsessed with getting her to represent him and helping him beat the false charges . so he still has no clue about what has happened to her . reed tells kelly he wants to be there for her and she must agree that they have a connection . she then agrees to have dinner with him . natalie goes to visit her brother , kevin , in london and tells him about the news involving marty losing her baby and john 's accusing natalie and the suspicion that now surrounds todd . rex and gigi go to santa fe , nm , to find the jeweler who designed the necklace that was left when he was abandoned at the hospital as a newborn baby and hope it will lead them to his real parents .

[ scene_break ] starr : cole was furious with me for being at the hospital with my dad instead of at the hearing , and he got so mad that he started accusing my dad of pushing marty down the stairs again and ... langston : and so you defended him ? starr : of course i had to , but then things really turned into a mess when i blamed the whole thing on hannah . [ scene_break ] markko : how can starr blame hannah for you being in jail ? cole : she still thinks that hannah 's lying about seeing her dad push my mom . markko : she really thinks that hannah would lie about something that important ? cole : i guess . starr thinks that she 's after me . remember ? markko : so hannah would make up being a witness to an attempted murder ... why ? cole : according to starr , it 's part of a big plot to break us up . [ scene_break ] starr : and it 's working . langston : what do you mean it 's working ? no , this whole situation is just temporary . cole 's gon na get out of jail and everything 's gon na work out the way it 's meant to be .

[ scene_break ] ford : so then we had to take this animal back to the zoo , and they were so mad . i do n't know -- anyway , my prom night was wild , but big brother 's right . you need to be more careful . jessica : cristian 's not my brother . ford : oh , no , no , no . i 'm just -- the phrase `` big brother 's watching you `` ? i mean , could the guy be any more protective ? jessica : so , are you still with the girl that you took to prom ? ford : no . ha . no , i 've -- i 've definitely moved on since then . high school romances , they never last . jessica : sometimes they do . you know , people move apart , but sometimes your first real great love is your only true love and you find your way back together . [ scene_break ] layla : what were you doing back there , biting ford 's head off ? cristian : the guy is hitting on jess , layla . layla : ford 's a flirt . so what ? jessica can handle herself . cristian : are you kidding me ? jessica thinks she 's a teenage girl and ford is a dog . layla : i knew plenty of dogs in high school . part of growing up is figuring out how to deal with them . cristian : yeah , with people your own age . you know what i mean . maturity level . layla : were you jealous back there ? cristian : come on . layla : were you ? cristian : give me a break , layla . brody is jessica 's boyfriend . they love each other even if -- layla : jessica ca n't remember him ? yeah . cristian : she 's sick , but she will get better . in the meantime , how do you think brody would feel if he finds out that ford was all over jess ? layla : the same way he feels about jessica moving in on you . cristian : i thought we were done with this . layla : abre los ojos , cristian . take a good look at what 's going on here . the only reason why jessica came over here in person to tell you she 's going to the prom with brody was to make you jealous . and after the way you 've been acting , i 'd have to say it worked . jessica : hey , guys . do you have any more soda ? [ scene_break ] brody : hey . cop : hey . brody : i 'm checking on things here for the lieutenant . everything quiet with manning ? cop : yeah . he 's got company -- one of his daughters . she 's got clearance , though . [ scene_break ] todd : how could it possibly be in my best interest to drop the charges against cole after he tried to kill me ? hannah : you know , you 're really putting starr in a bad position here . todd : what would you care about starr ? hannah : cole 's the father of her child . starr needs him home with her . and from the way you went after me and then dr. saybrooke , when you mistakenly thought something was going on between me and cole , i have to believe that you 'd do anything for starr . [ scene_break ] langston : i just meant that between your dad getting beaten up and cole getting arrested , if you and cole were to break up , that 'd just be too much . i mean , you guys are crazy about each other . starr : i love cole with all my heart . cole is ... home to me . everything just makes sense when we 're together and it just does n't when we 're not . god . oh . everything was going so great . we were just balancing being parents and school and ... god , prom is tomorrow . langston : prom . right . i 'd almost forgotten . starr : i was so excited about it for weeks . i know it sounds really silly , but it reminds me of when cole and i got back together , when you and markko first got together . but now ... cole will be in jail . he wo n't even be able to go to prom . langston : starr ... oh , god , i 'm so sorry . starr : do you know the worst part about all of it ? i do n't even know if cole would want to go with me , even if he were free . [ scene_break ] cole : am i being the biggest jerk in the world because i ca n't accept that starr 's taking her dad 's side in this ? i mean , how am i supposed to accept that starr is defending her dad , after everything that he 's done to my mom ? how can she be supporting him and turning hannah into the bad guy ? markko : well , it does seem pretty farfetched . i mean , hannah lying about what she saw just so she could get closer to you ? cole : right . she 's just looking for something to ... make her dad not guilty . [ scene_break ] hannah : i think it would be best for starr if cole were free . todd : like i said , nice try with that one . hannah : you do n't know me , todd . todd : you do n't know me , sister . you think i do n't know what you 're up to ? well , you 're not as smart as you appear to be . you want me to free cole , but you want to claim that i pushed marty . that way starr and cole keep fighting . you can have cole all to yourself while i rot in statesville . hannah : you know , it was pretty dark in the stairwell when dr. saybrooke fell . i saw a man . i thought it was you . but ... i could tell the police i 'm not really ... 100 % sure . todd : so you 'll change your story if i drop the charges against cole . [ scene_break ] rex : just tell us the name of the buyer . man : i 'm sorry , but i ca n't . i do n't remember who bought it . rex : you just told us how special the necklace was . you described it in detail . how could you not remember who bought it ? man : it was a long time ago . gigi : but -- man : please . my father 's exhausted . just leave him alone . rex : right . okay . well ... thanks for your help . gigi : i 'm sorry , balsom . i thought we were so close . rex : we are . otto 's lying .

starr has a dilemma between loyalty to her father and to cole . markko goes to visit cole and finds out that starr believes that hannah is falsely accusing todd so that she can break up starr and cole . starr tells langston the same thing and reveals that she would n't put something like that past hannah since she was desperate enough to try to kill herself over ford . hearing that , langston is startled to find that out but does not reveal her secret with ford to starr . meanwhile , ford talks to jessica and appears to be similarly interested in her as he has been with other `` young girls `` . cristian and layla want to be together although she wishes jessica would leave him alone . she is ready to go to the prom with brody . hannah goes to talk to todd , first attempting to `` cut a deal `` with him knowing that they both want starr and cole to break up . but he tells her he does not trust her and knows he can discredit her accusation of him pushing marty because he knows that she is unstable and tried to take her own life over a guy .

cuter goes to reveal to joey that he married tess for the sole purpose of taking the buchanan 's money . and he does not care if aubrey overhears . this obviously casts suspicion on aubrey sine joey believe cutter is her brother and sees how `` close `` the two of them are . how could she not know that a close family member she grew up with could do something like this . and alone , he admits he may not trust aubrey after all , although he tells her otherwise . natalie listens to the tape where marty confirms to dr. buhari that she did in fact alter natalie 's medical record to make her believe that brody is the father of her baby so that john would break up with her and realize that marty is the right woman for him . at that point , natalie admits she is not ok to have to break brody 's heart that he is not liam 's father but has new found `` hope `` that john is her baby 's father . she goes to john 's home . but after marty overhears john and kelly talking about seeing each other and that he is not interested in her , she goes to `` surprise `` kelly .. marty obviously wants to get revenge upon maybe one or more of the women in john 's life who are more important to him than she is . brody then realizes he needs to take drastic action to get jessica back . but when she is torn between being jessica and getting back with brody vs. her plan , as tess with cutter , we see yet another `` alter `` come out . and she appears to be brody 's army friend , wes .
