Tom is trying to get Margo to see his side of things with Emily and that she is telling the truth. Margo tells him that if he represents Emily that he will be off limits to her. She says that they have been off limits, so what would be different. Tom tells her that he will never be off limits to her and that he loves her. She says that if he represents Emily, it will be over for them and Tom tells her not to say that. He tells her that he knows how much he has hurt her and he wants a chance to make it up to her. Margo's cell phone rings and it is their therapist. Margo tells them that they are not able to make a new appointment at this time and she hangs up. Tom asks her what was she doing, he was right there and they could have scheduled a new appointment.

Eddie is talking to himself, saying that every time he has tried to talk to Georgia, someone or something has interrupted them. Katie overhears him and comes over to where he is sitting. She asks him if he would like to come over to her house for dinner. Eddie says that he doesn't think that is a very good idea and she tells him that Margo has been working a lot of hours and probably won't be there. She tells him she feels like she owes him, because she told him about Georgia and Chris. He says that she doesn't owe him, but he will come over for dinner. Katie leaves and Georgia comes in. She walks over to him and tells him how nice the club is looking. He is happy to see her and he has something that he wants to talk to her about. He asks her if she got his letter and she says that she did. He says that things seemed to have changed. Georgia has a flashback of finding Katie in his bed and an empty condom wrapper on the floor. She says, "Yes, things have changed." Eddie says that he wants to know about her and Chris, have they slept together yet? Georgia can't believe that Eddie is asking her this. She asks him if it bothers him and he says that he doesn't want her to get hurt. She says that she thinks that it is cool that he still cares. He says that he wants to know and she says, "Eddie!" They tiptoe around the issue of who they are seeing. Eddie tells her to take it slow. She says that she should go for it like he and Katie did and he wants to know what she is talking about. She says that he saw Katie, he wanted Katie, so.... And he says, " And so, it history." She jumps up and says that she should go and he stops her. He asks her to do him a favor, just be careful. She says everyone should be careful, just like him. She leaves and he turns around and sees Margo sitting at the bar. He asks her how she got in without him seeing her. She tells him that the place is looking great and they should celebrate. She orders champagne and Eddie tells her not in the middle of the day. He asks he if she wants to talk about it and she says, "No talking." Eddie tells her that he will take her home and they leave.

At Margo's house, Katie is setting the table and says how perfect everything is going to be. She goes upstairs to get ready.

He tells her to get past the cinder block walls and the single bed. She whips around and says that she didn't tells him about the walls. He convinces her that she did tell him, but she hadn't told him that, yet. She goes on telling him how she escaped but the man cornered her in the warehouse and she managed to get the gun. She shot a warning shot and ran out of the warehouse. When she and Tom returned and took the ski mask off the man, it wasn't David. Reid asks her if it had been David, would she have wanted to kill him. She tells him that she would have in a heartbeat. She tries to explain to him how horrible a person David is and she hates him. She stops for a moment, thinking, then all the sudden she comes to the realization that David has set her up. She says that David is the murderer and she is taking the blame.

Dr. Hamilton walks out into the waiting room where Tom has joined Hal and Susan. He tells them that he feels that Emily has all her faculties and knows what is going on and that he feels that Emily did make up the story to cover up that she killed a man.
