At Company:

Holly comes in and Buzz comes over to talk to her. He was worried that since he brought up sex, she had been ignoring him. Holly tells him she hadn't been avoiding him. She is a big girl and she knows an inappropriate suggestion when she hears it. Buzz comments that she has came to his place of business now. She tells him she is there to meet Blake. Buzz thinks Holly has been dreaming about him and wanting him but she denies it. He asks her about the surprise party Ross is throwing for Blake. Holly tells him it has been postponed until Richard and Cassie can get back home. Blake comes in and Buzz walks away. She goes over to a table with Holly and shows her the new novel. Holly is so proud of her and Blake asks her why she keeps staring at Buzz. Holly tells her about Buzz bringing up sex and how she is sometime tempted but she thinks better of it. Holly changes the subject and asks Blake why she isn't happier that her book is out and the critics seem to love it. Blake tells her she is still worried about Buzz. She feels responsible for everything, especially Selena leaving and she knows Buzz is still mad at her. Holly figures out that Blake wants her to help her talk to Buzz. Buzz comes over and sees the book. Blake hands it to him and tells him she wants him to have it before they come out. Buzz tells her he doesn't want it. Buzz walks away and Blake follows. She tries to apologize and asks Buzz to give the book a chance; she thinks he may be surprised. Buzz tells her he knows the story, he lived it and he doesn't want to relive it again. He tells her that because of that book part of him was ripped away and he hates it. Buzz claims Selena shared her story and Blake exploited it and told all her secrets until the mob came after her and she had to flee, not to mention Selena was almost killed. Blake tells Buzz she knows he is hurt but she hopes he can read the book and maybe something good can come of the situation. He tells her again he will not read it and accuses her of doing it for money and notoriety. Holly defends Blake but Buzz doesn't want to hear it. He is yelling at her now telling her how she ruined his life and he has been reduced to nothing. Now he is left coming onto a cold bitter woman who doesn't want to feel. Buzz left the room. Blake tells Holly that she only wanted him to read it so he would understand how brave Selena was. When Buzz comes back through the room, Blake tries to get him to understand again. Buzz tells her she tricked Selena into divulging things and then used it all to bring terror into Selena and his lives. Holly and Blake go back to their table. Blake apologizes to Holly. She says she didn't know Buzz was still so angry. She thinks if he gave the book half a chance he would see how heroic Selena was. Holly tells Blake she will meet her at home; she wants to talk to Buzz. Blake apologizes for upsetting things between her and Buzz. She leaves. Holly asks Buzz where he gets off talking to Blake like that. He loves the truth yet he criticizes Blake for telling it. How can he judge a book he hasn't read? He says the only thing that book will give him is more pain. Holly says real life gave him pain and the book is fiction. Buzz tells Holly that Blake knew what she was doing was wrong. She kept after Selena and was desperate for a story ending in her wrecking his life. It is not art, it is selfishness in hardcover. Holly tells him that the only thing she thinks of when she thinks of having sex with him is repulsion. Holly says Buzz needs help.

Just then sirens are heard outside. The guards throw the shoe down and leave. Richard and Cassie come back upstairs and are relieved that they left but Richard thinks they may be back. The cell phone rings and they are scared if they answer it Edmund will surely catch hold of the frequency and will be able to find them post haste.

Gus walks back in and Ross tells him that until he files charges against Michelle he will leave her alone and remember all of her rights. Ross tells Michelle they are leaving and they walk out.

At Infierno:

Marah is upset that Tony had hit that man earlier. Catalina watches as they argue. Tony apologizes for ruining their evening. Marah hugs him and kisses his neck while she rubs his shoulders. Tony hates that he resorted to violence as well. Marah suggests they go somewhere private so she can distract him. They go into the office to kiss some more. Catalina can peer in until they shut the door. Tony tells Marah how he wants to do well on his job so Josh will cut him some slack with her. Marah gets Tony on the couch and straddles his lap. She starts kissing him and undressing him.

Sam and Josh come in. Josh gets a call from Olivia telling him she will be home in a few days. She tells him there is still no word on Richard or Cassie. Josh is still not thrilled about working with Edmund and Alan. He wants Olivia to come home before the coronation but Olivia doesn't want to miss it. Josh ends his call and he and Sam are discussing Marah's birthday. Sam wants to throw a party for her. Catalina comes over and Josh asks if she has seen Marah. Catalina tells him to try her cell phone.

Marah's phone rings and she sees that it is her dad. She shuts the phone off and Tony tells her she should have answered it. Marah is angry that Tony seems to be rejecting her. She gets off him and starts to walk away with the half dressed Tony following her right into the dining area where Sam and Josh are sitting. Marah storms up to her dad and tells him not to worry she and Tony didn't have sex and probably never will now. She leaves. Tony is left standing there. Josh says, "strike two" to Tony. He asks Tony what he was doing with his daughter, did his shirt just bust open by itself? Why was Marah upset? Tony wants him to trust them but Josh says trust is not a word he thinks of when he thinks of Tony. Josh notices Tony's bruised knuckles and points them out to him as well as listing all the things he did wrong in one day on the job. He says he'd better try to shape up or he's out of there. Catalina tries to comfort Tony. He gets up and walks away from her.

Meanwhile at the Lewis House, Sam has followed Marah home and tells her he was worried about her and she was driving erratically. Marah says she has real problems. She thinks Josh was following her, that's why he was at Infierno. Sam tells her it was just a coincidence. He asks what happened with Tony. Marah is upset because nothing happened. Tony is ready to join the jr. business league, he is like her dad, thinks he knows what is best for her. She says Sam is the only one who never treats her that way. Sam asks Marah how she feels about him throwing her a surprise birthday party? She says now it won't be a surprise but it is a sweet idea. Why does he want to do it and who does he plan to invite? She puts her head on his shoulder.

Catalina and Tony are at the bar. She is sorry about what happened with Josh. Tony says Marah was all over him; she has never been like that. Some girls like to see guys in fights but not girls like Marah. He doesn't get it. Catalina walks around behind Tony and is touching his shoulders. She says he can get out of the mob life and be a better person. She thinks he is brave. Tony says this is from someone who mailed herself to the US in a crate. It is hard to stand up instead of just going along. She says Tony is starting small but will end up big. Once Josh sees what he can do, he will move up fast. Tony will find that he has talents he never dreamt of. Tony wants her to tell Marah that. Marah thinks working for Josh is a stupid. Tony really wants to do it, doesn't know what Marah wants. Catalina says maybe it is just rebellion, maybe she likes the danger? Maybe she fell in love with a picture of you, not the real you?

In San Cristobel:

The guard catches Richard. He recognizes the guard and calls him Franklin. Richard talks to him about how he gave him an award for service. Richard is moving towards him. Things are different now, before you served your country, do you really believe in what you are doing now? When the guard says he can't be sure of anything now, Richard hits the guard and knocks him out. He takes the guard's hat and gun and leaves to look for Cassie. He comes upon Cassie. She is hurt and collapses on the beach. She comes to and tells him she has been hiding in the water to stay away from the dogs and the guards. She stepped on a sea urchin and her foot it sore. Richard thinks he hears the guards again and grabs her and carries her off.

At the palace, Beth comes in with the dress designer. She tells Olivia how great the designer is and Olivia makes a comment about her designing for the next princess of San Cristobel. They go over all the designs and pick out which dresses they want. The designer leaves. Beth asks Olivia if she regrets not marrying Richard. Olivia says no. Beth says it would be quite a fight to bring her children here. Olivia says but every girl dreams of being a princess. Beth says she just dreamt of leaving her unhappy childhood home. Olivia says she never fit with Richard, couldn't find a way into his heart but she has that with Josh and they can build their own kingdom.

Richard and Cassie arrive at the Weymouth's. Richard and Lydia put Cassie in bed. Cassie is short of breath and they can hear the dogs are barking in the background. Richard takes the spines out of Cassie's foot and she cries out in pain. He tells her one of the spines is embedded too deep for him to get it out. He takes her foot and starts gently sucking on it. She tells him she would like to try this again when she isn't in so much pain. He tells her she needs to take a warm shower and helps her into the bathroom. He apologizes for getting her into this again. She says stop apologizing and hugs him.

The designer comes back in to take care of Beth and Cassie. Edmund comes in and brags about how beautiful Beth is. An aide walks in and says he has news about Richard. They tell Edmund that they found the cave and took all Richard's supplies but Richard got away. The aide leaves. Beth says that's not all bad. Edmund says it is great news. Now they know Richard and Cassie are out there without supplies so it is only a matter of time. Beth is looking in the mirror. Edmund says the dress won't do. She will upstage him on his coronation day. Edmund proposes a toast: to the upstaging, to Richard running out of hiding places and supplies, and to his reign as prince.

Cassie limps into the dining room. Richard is there with wine and food and candles, courtesy of Lydia. Cassie says they are pampered fugitives. Richard is sad that he is a fugitive on his own island and now trying to escape from it, and leave the people he has served all his life behind, with Edmund in charge. Richard toasts to the beginning of the end of Edmund's reign.
