The last thing we saw on Friday was Julia walking toward Barbara with a fire poker and Babs screaming her head off. Today, Jack and Margo raced into Fairwinds and found what looked like a body wrapped up in a carpet. Jack unrolled the rug and found it was filled with pillows. Julia left her calling card on one of the pillows. After a quick search of the house, they put an APB out on Julia and then head back to the station to figure something else out.

Julia and Barbara are driving in a car along an unfamiliar road. Julia asks, "Are you scared Barbara?" Babs tearfully says yes. Julia says all will be revealed in time. Barbara asks, "Are you going to kill me?" Julia smiles and Barbara asks what's behind that smile. Julia says she's just focused on saying good-bye for good." Pulling the stun gun out from her pocket, Julia says, "It's time Barbara. Does this make you nervous?" Julia hands her a present saying it's for Jack, then they reminisce about old times. Julia recalls how much fun they all had eating at the Lakeview. Julia says, "I never doubted that you cared for me." They hug, Barbara cries, and Julia gets out of the car and walks away. For good?

Katie deliberates over whether she should search for clues about Simon's past on the web, and eventually trusts her husband to come forward with the truth. She prints out info on a cottage she has her eye on for her future home and shows the details to Simon when he gets home.

Craig crashes the party on the Worldwide jet. Lucinda tries to throw him off the plane, but Lily intervenes saying he has lost someone he loves too. Craig says thank you for the support, and Lily says, "Shut up and sit down. You owe me!" Margo stops by and gets everyone up to date on the Julia situation. She tells Paul that she's taken his mother hostage and that Will needs him in Oakdale right now to keep him safe. It tears Paul up to have to choose between the woman he loves and his bother, but he decides to stay in town.

Hal brings Dr. Dixon to see James. After a cursory inspection, John says James must be moved right away "or he dies!" Hal gets loopy and demands that he treat James right there. John asks for blankets because James is cold and clammy. Hal leaves the room and locks the door behind him. John wonders what is going on! When Hal returns, John tries to call for an ambulance for the very sick James. Hal rips the phone from his hands and demands that John stabilizes him right now.

Barbara finds her way back to Oakdale and the police station. Almost everyone is relieved to see her, except for Paul. Margo and Jack ask if she knows where Julia is, but it was too dark, and she was too scared to focus on following her around for answers. Once Barbara learns that Paul stayed in town instead of running to see Rose, she stands up and looks at him in disbelief. "You stayed for me? You gave op seeing Rose for my sake?" Paul burst her bubble pretty fast. "I stayed for Will, not you! We are not going to forget the past anytime soon." Barbara asks if Paul would "open your mind and heart to the possibility that I can get better." "What you've done is criminal! You are on your own. Keep your distance and Rose and I will keep ours."

Jack and Margo feel it would be best if Barbara stays in the police station instead of at Fairwinds or with Lisa's, so they set up a cot for her in the interrogation room.

The pilot of the Worldwide plane walks back to the cabin. Apparently, customs is turning the jet around and that Rose won't be able to leave the country.

In Brussels, Inspector Dupree refuses to allow Lucinda to take Rose on her jet because he has no proof Rose is who she claims to be. Lucinda threatens the inspector and Craig offers his own kind of threats, both with no affect. However, it's Lily who manages to get through to the officer by explaining her heartache over the loss of her twin sister. Dupree allows Lily to let Rose use her passport to exit Brussels. When she boards the jet , she is disappointed to find everyone but Paul, but Lucinda and Lily explain he had to tend to Will who may be shaken up by his mothers recent problems. She continues to tell her story about Dr. Weston, Libby and the rest of the spa, however, Craig blasts Rose for leaving Carly and Emily behind, and supposedly dead, however Lucinda and Lily are quick to put Craig in his place to which Craig offers and apology. Later, Rose passes out and Lucinda urges the pilot to get them home quickly.

John convinces Hal to let him go to the hospital to get some medication for James, however only after promising not to tell anyone where James is. Meanwhile, upstairs at the station house, Barbara leaks to Hal that Rose has been found and will be back in Oakdale tomorrow. Barbara seems to think this will bring answers but Hal leaks out that there aren't any answers to be had from Rose. When Barbara mentions Emily's name, Hal becomes confused and flashes back to kissing Emily. Hal states how he can't get into it with Barbara considering they were once lovers.

Over burgers at Al's, Margo hangs up after top talking to someone at home and Jack is impressed by how Margo holds everything together at work and still has time to find out everything going on at home. Margo then credits that to her partner and husband. Margo then tries to get Jack to open up to her about what Julia did to him. Margo assures him she knows what he is going through since she has been through all of it before. Later, Jack opens the present left for him by Barbara and finds a positive home pregnancy test. Meanwhile, Julia heads out of Oakdale for a life on a commune. Sensing that the disappearance of the women and Julia's reappearance could be related to James, Jack urges Hal to get some psychiatric help. Instead, Hal ends their friendship. John leaks to Margo about James being in the basement of the station, but Margo thinks Tom put John up to it as a way to cheer her up. After convincing Margo, they go to the station but when they run downstairs, James is gone, but leaves behind an empty I.V. which proves they were in fact there.

At Al's Diner, Katie and Simon talk about her dream cottage. They get interrupted by Katie's phone. It is Dahlia who insists on seeing Katie. Simon leaves and three college girls come up to Katie and tell her how much they love her exercise video. Katie is pleasantly surprised. Just then Dahlia arrives and tells Katie that they have test marketed the video in college campuses. The next step is nationwide and soon they'll be rich. Dahlia says Katie will be able to live in a castle. Katie says she prefers a, "sweet little cottage in the woods." Dahlia starts to laugh and warns Katie not to let Simon stifle her. She says that she sees Katie as a rising star, not as a happy homemaker. She doesn't want Katie to settle. Katie defends herself and tells Dahlia she would love to spend her time with Simon in a cute little cottage. Later on, Simon tries to find Katie her cottage but only finds a place that is a true handyman's special. It is a complete wreck. Katie meets him there and is not interested in the place. However, Simon convinces her that it could be wonderful. He says it took him a while to fall in love with her so it will take time to fall in love with the place. He says he can see their future there.

At the police station, Jack tells the police officers to look for James Stenbeck. He doesn't mention that Hal is missing too. Margo tells Jack and Barbara that Julia was seen with "deadheads" in Oklahoma. Margo convinces Jack to go home and get rest. She lies telling Jack that she will meet with Rose when she comes back. (Actually Rose has arrived back in Oakdale and Margo has an appointment with her in the afternoon.) Simon comes to the station and Margo tells him that they are looking for Hal who has been taking care of and protecting James. Margo tells Simon to "stay available."

Paul arrives at the police station to pick up Barbara. He tells Barbara he is going to meet Rose. Barbara insists on going to Fairwinds even though Margo told her she cannot protect her there.

Later on, Craig shows up at the police station. Margo does her best to get rid of him and tells him that he is not a part of the investigation. He asks where Jack is. Margo tells him that she sent Jack home to get rest and that if Craig disturbed him, she would press charges against Craig.

Jack goes home and sees his front door is open. He takes out his gun and steps inside. He hears singing and relaxes when he realizes it is Mitzi. She is happy to see him. Jack is pleased that Mitzi cleaned his house. She tells him she got rid of all the bad Julia vibes. She makes something to eat for Jack but he sits on the couch and falls asleep. Mitzi covers him with a blanket. There is a knock at the door ­ it's Craig. Mitzi tries to get rid of him but he barges in and wakes up Jack. He tells Jack that Rose is home. Mitzi is excited and the three of them leave to go see Rose.

Rose, Lily and Lucinda arrive at Lily and Holden's house. Rose is welcomed by Emma, Luke and Faith. Emma offers to cook but Rose says she is not hungry. She does manage to eat some of Emma's homemade coffee cake. Lily notices that Rose still isn't feeling well. Rose says her face is burning and she just wants to take a bath ­ a regular, plain bath. She calls Paul, who is now at Fairwinds dropping of Barbara, and she tells him to come over. Paul says he can't wait to see her. After everyone leaves, Lily tells Holden they should leave so that Paul and Rose can be alone. Holden tells Lily how much he missed her when she was gone. Holden leaves and Lily lights a candle and puts romantic music on. Meanwhile, Rose is upstairs trying to get ready for Paul. She looks in the mirror and wonders what is wrong with her face. Rose comes downstairs and shows Lily her face ­ it looks as if she has aged at least thirty years. Rose asks what is happening to her. Just then the doorbell rings and it is Paul carrying a bouquet of flowers. He calls out to Rose telling her he can't wait to see her beautiful face.

At Fairwinds, Barbara is by herself. She decides to bravely take out a match and start a fire. Then, she hears a door open. She calls out "Paul" thinking he has come back. She doesn't hear anything so she grabs a fire poker and calls out "Julia". She walks to the front foyer, turns around and sees Hal. He says, "I'm in trouble Barbara. I need you."
