Claire and Alan are dining and seem to be a having a good time. They are both discussing how their children hate them. Claire says that Michelle only hates her half the time, which is alright because she is tired of being hurt. Claire asks Alan about Harley. Alan says that Phillip has married beneath him and he prefers Beth who is a classy lady with a desire to please. He wants his grandchildren home. James is a Spaulding and deserves to be raised as one. Alan pours some champagne while Claire asks him if Phillip hates him. He says sometimes hates him and sometimes they are rivals. Claire tells him that she admires him. He flatters her and says she is sexy and intelligent.

Rick and Michelle come in and are seated and notice Claire and Alan. Michelle says she doesn't know what to do with Claire. Michelle is talking to Rick and says her marriage is over even if she thinks about Danny all the time. She tells him that school has started and she is happy she can concentrate on that now.

Harley and Phillip enter the club and see Claire and Alan. They ignore them and walk over to greet Rick and Michelle. They go on to their table and Harley brings up Susan confronting her about the adoption and how it hurt her but she feels it may have been even worse for Buzz. She feels that it may have brought up a lot of the past and how Buzz dumped her and Frank as kids. Phillip tells her that Buzz will be okay and that what Susan said may have been for the best. Phillip tells her that these things have been brewing since Susan first came to Springfield and now that it is out in the open things should only get better. He tells her that it isn't like his relationship with Susan, since she likes hating him. Harley thanks him for supporting her through the whole situation. He tells her that he loves her and wants to help her. Phillip and Harley are wondering if Claire and Alan are a couple. They figure it is a match made in hell. Harley tells Phillip they can leave now and can eat somewhere else. They walk over to Rick and Michelle's table and say good night to them. Michelle tells Rick she feels queasy and then faints.

He walks over to Susan and asks where she has been. Susan puts a pillow over her face. Edmund starts to tease her. He wants to know all the details telling her that he may want to find a decent hiding place in SF sometime. She says she was in the lighthouse and he tells her he will keep that in mind. They talk about Phillip and the fistfight and Susan wondered why he didn't hit Phillip back. He tells her your best weapon is often your intelligence. Susan listens to Edmund explain his theory. Edmund says that punching out is an expression of a lack of intelligence; it is better to use one's brain and use restraint. You should find your opponent's weak spot. It is more effective and more fun. Susan says she wishes she would have known that sooner. Edmund says you learn from your mistakes and suggest she read, "The Prince" by Niccolo Machiavelli. He tells her that the pope banned the book and Susan perks up. She figures it must be good then. He tells her it is a book is about hardball politics and that Machiavelli sees that it is better to be feared then to be loved. Edmund says that being skillful is better than being trustworthy. Susan laughs a little and says she wants to read the book and goes to look it up on the Internet. Beth says that is the first time she has seen Susan smile in weeks. Edmund says there is no woman he cannot charm. Beth brings out some tea and asks Edmund why he is there. He told her that he had some business and had hitched a ride on the royal jet with Richard and Cassie. They discuss the construction accident and Josh and Reva. Beth thanks him for talking to her the other day and that said that it all ended up just as he said it would. She wants to know what kind of business Edmund is there for. He tells her he will talk to her about it when it is over. Jim walks into the house and sees Edmund who says, "Here I am again." Jim says he comes home and finds him alone with his wife again and though he would love to belt him he won't because he has learned from past experiences and won't get upset. Edmund says he will leave while he is ahead and tells Beth he will be in touch. Jim doesn't want any details since he already has to deal with a depressed daughter. Beth says that Edmund made Susan laugh. Jim is shocked. Beth brings the baby down and she and Jim play with him. Susan comes down and asks her dad if she can borrow his credit card to order a book. He tells her that she can get on the bus and go to the bookstore and buy the book. She asks if that means he trusts her again and he tells her he trusts her to go to the bookstore and back. He hands her $10. Susan hugs him and leaves. Jim tells Beth that he hopes they are out of that book. Beth tells him that Edmund recommended it. Jim says that the book is probably Edmund's Bible.

Beth and Jim are discussing the baby's christening. She wants to have coffee and cake either there or at a restaurant. Jim says whatever she wants. He has mixed feelings about inviting Phillip but knows it's the right thing to do. Beth hopes he won't show, but if he does, Harley will keep him in line. Jim still thinks of Phillip as a threat. He says he is like Tarzan. Beth loves that about him and makes her feel safe. Jim says that whatever magic Edmund is working with Susan is fine with him. They need to talk about godparents.

Reva starts to come over and Rourke tries to stop her. He finds out that she is Cassie's sister and lets her through. Meanwhile, Selena tells Blake not to discuss her book anymore. She tells her that a few more facts and everyone would have guessed who the story was about. Blake tells her that they couldn't have because what Selena told her wasn't true. Selena tells her it was but Blake tells her that the timing just doesn't match up. She says that if her story was correct that would make Drew about 11 years old. Selena gets upset and tells Blake she wants Drew left totally out of it. Blake tells her that she has to tell her the truth so when she fictionalizes the story she won't accidentally run into the truth. Selena tells her that there is something's that she hasn't been straight about but she will tell her later.

At another table, Frank, David and Harley are discussing what happened to Reva and Frank. They suspect that the Santos family was involved. David is talking about the Santos brothers, Miguel, Federico and Hernando. He said Miguel was beaten badly 12 years ago and died in Carmen's arms. Hernando was killed before him, and Federico died just last year. By process of elimination he feels that Maria Santos, (Abuela), must be in charge now.

Outside Company:
Susan sees Sam. She tells him that school started and hopes to see him there even though he is a senior. She invites him to meet her friends at Company later. Sam has to meet his sister's boyfriend first. Susan figures out that he is Olivia's brother. Later, Susan, Max and Marah are outside talking. Susan wants to tell her about Sam, but Marah isn't listening. She tells Marah that Sam is a great guy but is Olivia's brother and she wants to introduce them. Just then, Sam arrives and realizes he had met her at the hospital. He says something about Reva being a cold person and Marah says something about Olivia being a snake.

At the Santos house:
Ray tells Danny that he hasn't seen Abuela that angry in years. Danny tells Ray about the construction accident and the questions from Reva and Frank and mentions how he had questioned Abuela about it and she got angry then. Tony walks in and says that Danny "dissed" Abuela. Ray started thinking and he also wondered if Abuela was involved. Tony says Danny better make it up to Grandma or he should go to Chicago. Ray wants to know how close to the truth Danny came.
Ray asks Danny for details about the conversation with Frank. Danny insists he didn't know anything but Ray wants to know why Frank would think that. Tony wants to take care of it. Ray goes to talk to Abuela in the garden. He asks her why she took Danny's questions so personally. She is still angry and tells him when she wants to go to confession she will see him at church. Ray tries to continue pressing and Tony tells him he already knows the score. Ray says that maybe he should call himself a Santos. He tells them that he loves his entire family but is unable to stay there any longer. He is going back to the rectory so he can get out of the snake pit and avoid getting bitten. Abuela tells Ray that he worries too much.

At the hospital:
Olivia is fluffing Josh's pillows as Marah enters. Josh asks Marah if something is wrong and she tells him what happened to Frank and Reva. Josh is worried and asks for more details and if Reva was all right. Marah says she is fine but she isn't talking much about the incident. She wants him to call Reva but hesitates to ask him. Josh said that he will call but Olivia thinks it is a bad idea. Marah gets upset and tells Olivia that things would work out great for Olivia if Reva were hurt. Olivia tells Marah that she isn't that selfish and petty and that she only wants everyone to be happy and doesn't wish Reva ill. Marah says that her parents were married and that was supposed to last forever until Olivia came along. Marah walks out. Josh goes to use the phone and Olivia tries to stop him. She says that Reva is addicted to Josh and he isn't helping her. He has to leave her alone. Josh says this is different and he doesn't want Reva getting hurt. He goes ahead and calls Rev! a and asks her to come see him.

Marah runs into Sam who is rollerblading in the hospital hallway. She keeps walking out and Sam goes into Josh's room and introduces himself and asks for Olivia. They make conversation about Sam's arrival. Reva comes into the room and Josh introduces them. Reva says she is surprised to see Sam in the room when Olivia was restricting visitors and didn't let Marah see him until a few days ago. Josh says that he knows what happened with Olivia and Marah. Sam decides to leave since Reva was talking down about Olivia. Josh says that Marah is now taking Reva's attitude toward Olivia. Reva starts joking and tells him to table this discussion. She has flowers for him. Josh wants to talk about what happened to her and Frank. Reva says maybe the guy was drunk or on a cell phone. Josh says maybe it was because of her story and wants her to back off. Reva says no. Josh says he is the only casualty and he wants to let it go. He doesn't want her to get hurt. Reva says there is more to it than a story. He says yes, it is about Reva's problem with letting go. Reva says Olivia has been talking to him. This is about a man named Diego and tells him that Diego was the one that rescued him. Josh thought it was her. She tells him how Diego helped her and what all had happened. Josh said he would like to meet Diego and Reva tells him that he died in the accident. She tells him about it and starts crying telling him about his last words and Diego's wife and the sweat shop. She tells Josh that Diego asked Reva to find his wife and tell him how much he loved her. Reva promised him she would and then he died. She feels like she owes him for saving Josh. Josh takes Reva's hand and says he is sorry, he didn't know. He wants to know what he can do. Reva says just get better. Josh said he would be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Reva tells Josh she has made funeral arrangements for Diego and Josh agrees to attend. He thanks her for the flowers and tells her to be careful. Reva says she will do her best, and leaves his room.

Olivia comes back in and sees Josh's flowers and says, I take it Reva was here. Josh says yes. Olivia says she won't apologize for what she said but she really believes it. Josh said he believed it too, until he talked to Reva. She had a reason greater than he had imagined. It would be good for both of them to take on the same kind of attitude. Olivia gets sarcastic and says they should all emulate Reva. Josh says Reva has the courage to do what is right, no matter how it will effect her. Olivia thinks that is what she does. Olivia says something is wrong because Reva and Josh aren't going their separate ways; it is not over. She can't accept this; it is not okay with her. Olivia walks out of the room.
