A skeleton is brought from the bottom of the lake. Harley is skeptical that it is Carmen, but Gus is convinced. A few minutes later after talking to the coroner, Gus calls Claire and tells her it's time to get Danny to confess what happened that night at the docks. Claire seems worried and tells Gus, Danny is not going to buy her going to talk to him two times in the same day. Gus says to tell Danny that she got a tip from her lawyer Vince Russo. She reluctantly agrees. Meanwhile Danny and Michelle discuss Claire and if she would betray Michelle and work with the Feds. Michelle wants to ask Claire what she is up to, but Danny says not to, he doesn't want to tip his hand. The topic of Rick also comes up and Danny mentions that Rick, Harley, and Phillip were having dinner together and it seemed rather intense. Michelle assumes they must have told Phillip about the baby and says she must go talk to Rick. On her way out she runs into Frank and she tells him what may have happened, he says he will support Harley in any way. Michelle heads home and finds Rick, who explains that Phillip set up the meeting to find out what was the matter with Rick. Phillip brought Harley along to try to get to the bottom of the problem. Harley did everything she could to hide her pregnancy; Phillip was oblivious to the whole thing. Rick tells Michelle he asked Harley to marry him, but that she turned him down. He believes Harley is in denial and he wants to be honest with Phillip and Harley does not. Michelle also tells Rick her concerns about Claire possibly working for the Feds.

Again at the docks, Frank and David show up, but are not allowed on the sight where the investigation is taking place. Harley says she will call him later, but will not divulge any information about what they have found. Upset, Frank and David leave. After they depart, the coroner returns telling them that it should not be a problem identifying the body with the dental records, especially if they have someone in mind. Gus smiles and says they do. A bracelet is also found with the name Carmen on it, which pleases Gus to no end. Gus and Harley later talk about the investigation and Gus tells her how long he has waited for this, that he has been working on this case for four years. They plan to meet at 11 a.m. to see the results from the autopsy.

Meanwhile, Claire rushes over to see Danny, who is not at all pleased to see her. She says she got a tip from her lawyer that there was activity at the lake and that that can only mean one thing. Danny acts like he has no idea what she is talking about. She says it's time to fess up about what happened that night at the docks, that he has put Michelle and her in enough trouble; It all has to end. Danny seems confused by her behavior and tells her to back off. She says fine and goes to leave and he says wait and tears open her jacket. He finds the wire and tears it off, she tells him that she was ratting him out to save Michelle. He says if that were true, why didn't she tell Michelle and hands her the phone to call and tell her. She won't take it and he says you will probably lose your job and maybe end up with jail time, but most of all she has lost her daughter forever.

Over in San Cristobel , Edmund sneaks out of bed to go find Cassie. Beth wakes up and realizes Edmund is missing and wonders where he has gone. Edmund opens the cell door to what appears to be a dead Cassie. He rushes to her and tries to revive her. She starts to choke and he tries to give her food. He says you and I almost died thanks to Richard. He tells her of his stroke and that if he would have died, she surely would have died, because no one knew she was down there. She tells him to stop blaming everyone else, because ever since Richard and her met, he has caused them nothing but grief. She says she has no sympathy for him and spits her water on him. He says whether she believes it or not, he was worried about her and now wonders what he will do with her. He realizes she is burning up and says he will bring some antibiotics and food to get her well. He covers her up and tells her to rest and leaves. When he gets back to bed, Beth is waiting and asks where he has been. ing cake and tells Michelle that dinner was a setup because Phil was worried about him. Rick tells her that Phil doesn't know anything yet but it wasn't because of him. Harley doesn't want him to know. Rick tells her that Phil will know since Harley is as big as a firehouse. Rick tells Michelle that Phil believes he is upset about Robbie being a reminder that he wants a baby. He is upset that his friend has no clue that he is about to be a dad. Rick is worried about Harley as well and all the stress she is under. Michelle hopes Phil and Rick's relationship can survive. Rick goes on to tell Michelle how he asks Harley to marry him but she turned him down. He is convinced good friends could be great spouses and all the romantic stuff is stupid. Michelle knows Rick doesn't mean that.

At the Bauer House:

Danny is watching Michelle sleep and still looks preoccupied. Michelle wakes up and kisses her hubby asking him why he got in so late. He tells her that Claire came back and he has some bad news to tell her. Michelle tells him just to spit it out. He goes over what Claire did and that he ripped her jacket off and found the wire she was wearing. Michelle is angry with Claire and when Danny tells her they will just have to watch what they talk about around her Michelle tells him she has no intentions of ever talking to her again. Danny holds Michelle as the full situation hits her.

Michelle brings Robbie down to the kitchen while she cleans up a bit. Claire walks in and tells Michelle they have to talk. Michelle tells her she has nothing to ever say to her again. Claire tells her that she has to listen to her side of the story. Michelle accuses her of rolling over on her husband to save her own medical license. Claire tells her that isn't why she did it. She tells her about Gus and the evidence he has against Michelle and says she was only trying to keep her daughter out of prison. Michelle tells her that she is not her mother and she should get out. Claire reluctantly leaves. Moments later, Harley comes in and tells Michelle that they need her, Danny, Rick and Meta down at the police station at 10AM. There have been some discoveries that they need to know about. Michelle is upset about the whole situation. Harley apologizes and tells Michelle she would love to get off this case but hasn't had any luck. Michelle says at first she was angry but now she is counting on Harley to keep Gus honest. She reminds Harley that she is practically family and glances at Harley's tummy. Michelle confirms that Rick told her what happened. Harley says she knows but that it was just a one time thing. She needed someone and good ol' Rick was there. Michelle tells Harley that sometimes relationships that start as friends can be very romantic. Harley tells her that the only thing she is sure of is that she is destined to be alone. She doesn't want to fall for Rick because then she will find herself needing him and she doesn't want to need him or anyone. She says she no longer believes in Happily Ever After just Happily Ever Alone. Just then Meta walks in and tells Harley she is never alone. She tells her she is family to them and if she needs any help with the baby she is there for her. Harley feels terrible.

After the Bauer's have left and are at the police station, Gus picks the lock on the kitchen door and goes on in. He rummages through everything until he finds Danny's gun. He checks the serial number and pulls out a firing casing and test fires the weapon. He pulls the slug out and put it in a baggie marked, "evidence." Gus leaves, happy.

When the Bauer's return they turn on the radio and talk about what Harley had told them at the police station. Danny tells them they are his family and he will protect them. He tells them that if anyone is to go down for what happened, it will be him. He grabs the phone and calls Ross.

At the Police Station:

Gus comes in with breakfast. He even has fruit and juice for Harley. She comes in with the dental records and asks him why he is in such a good mood. He tells her that he loves eradicating everything Santos. He tells her he is on the edge of nailing Danny. Harley asks him what he will do if the body isn't Carmen's. Gus tells her he will start all over again. Gus tells her he wants to take the dental records down to the ME and would like for her to do something for him, something she isn't going to like. She yells at him that he only brought her breakfast as a bribe and tells him to go ahead and tell her what he wants. Gus tells Harley he is a nice guy but Harley thinks he is a jerk. Gus says he wants her to stop by the Bauer's and get all four of them to come down to the station. After they get there she should tell them that they found a body and are 99% sure it is Carmen. He tells her to tell them that Gus could arrest them all with Meta and Rick as accessories. Harley wonders where Gus will be while she is talking to the Bauer; she thinks it is a ploy to get them all out of the house. Gus tells her just to do her part and he will handle his. When Harley leaves, Gus asks Frank for help finding information on Danny's weapons. Frank gets him the file and Gus goes to look for weapon supplies. On his way out, with a satchel, Gus is confronted by Claire. She wants to know what will happen now. Gus tells her the deal is off because Claire didn't get the evidence. Claire is angry and tells him she risked everything for him and now he is turning on her. Gus tells her next time to get it in writing. Claire is irate and shouting at him but Gus walks away.

Harley is meeting with Rick, Meta, Michelle, Danny and Robbie. Harley says she is trying to keep them up to date on the investigation. Danny wonders where Gus is and Meta wonders why they had to come down to the PD. Harley says she wants to give them a heads up. She tells them that a body was found at the ferry dock and Gus thinks it is Carmen's. She tells them if they know anything they should come clean to their attorneys ASAP. Meta is upset that Harley drug them down there for that. Harley is upset that everyone is against her again. Everyone leaves her upset. When Gus comes back in, Harley tells him she hates him. She tells him that the meeting didn't go well with the Bauer's and she wonders if his trip to the ME was any better. He is happy. He tells her they got everything they needed. The dental records matched and there was a bullet stuck in the bone as well. To top it all off he even got a warrant for Danny Santos' firearms. He will deliver the warrant himself. He tells Harley to call the jail and book a cell for Danny. He leaves. Harley says "Sorry, Danny."

At Company:

Richard and Noah come in to talk about the plan. Richard tells him he cannot wait any longer and he is going to San Cristobel . Noah thinks he should wait until the wedding but Richard says Cassie can't wait any longer and if he doesn't go now he might not get her back. He can feel it; Cassie is in trouble. Richard promises Noah not to do anything suicidal. Noah asks Richard to consult with him first. Richard thanks him for all his help and his sacrificing his work and his relationship with Reva. Noah says he underestimated Reva's relationship with Josh; they are drawn to one another again and again. He tells Richard his willingness to accept the punishment in the relationship is wearing thin.

Richard gets a call from Edmund and Noah listens in. Edmund invites Richard down to look for Cassie. After he hangs up he tells Noah that he thinks he will take Edmund up on his offer. Noah thinks he is doing everything Edmund wants him to do. Richard tells him that Edmund was very obvious about this being a trap but he doesn't realize he is the one that will be trapped. Richard says he is going and the hare will set a trap for a hound.

In San Cristobel:

Cassie is still in the tower. She is coughing and shivering but her pride is keeping her from begging for another blanket the next time Edmund comes in. Edmund walks in with water and antibiotics. Cassie barks at him and Edmund is pleased. He says that is the Cassie they all know and love. She calls Edmund a despicable psychopath. He says that is more like it. Edmund gives Cassie some water and tells her to drink slowly. He hands her the pills and Cassie wonders how she knows they aren't poisoned. He tells her she doesn't, but she isn't the one he is targeting. It is Richard he wants and as long as he has her and she is alive, Richard will come back. He tells her he is glad she is better and tells her that he is better too. He tells her to take her pills twice a day, drink plenty of water and get some rest. Cassie asks him if Beth knows what he is doing. He tells her she doesn't. Cassie is worried about what will happen if he has a relapse. She assumes Edmund didn't tell Beth because he knows she will see him as a horrible individual if he does. Edmund tells her that Beth may not be happy about it at first but she will understand after she hears his side. Edmund tells Cassie if he knew that she and Richard would just disappear and he would never have to see them again he would let them go but he knows that Richard will not rest until he takes Edmund's throne from him or he is dead. He tells Cassie that he and his brother and headed for the final showdown. Edmund says he will drop a few subtle clues for Richard, Noah and Phillip to find and then they will come to him like mice to cheese. Cassie knows they will know it's a trap and she threatens to tell Beth. Edmund tells her she will never have an opportunity to talk to Beth. She thinks Edmund intends on killing her as well. Edmund says she is delusional and he'd better go call his brother. He tells Cassie she should brush her hair, she looks horrible. Cassie says she has to get out of there.

Back at the palace, Edmund goes into his bedroom and grabs the phone to call Richard. He tells Richard that he should come down to SC and search the island for his wife. He tells Richard when he finds that she is not there he can clear his brother's name. Richard tells Edmund he is losing his touch, he can see right through him. Edmund tells him that he wants to settle things. Richard tells him that he will bring Cassie home, have Edmund dethroned and exposes him to Beth for what he is. Edmund asks when he should expect Richard. Richard hangs up on him and then says, "When you least expect it." Noah thinks Richard went overboard on the call but Richard says he intends on taking Edmund up on his offer.
