John tends to agree because Nick has been difficult to locate. They call Marcie and learn that Nick has just returned. Michael gives John a difficult time because he wants to go along but finally agrees to wait behind with Evangeline.

When Nick walks in, Marcie practically jumps out of her skin.

He blames himself for stringing Margaret along in the first place and putting them in the fix they're in now.

Rex accompanies Nat back to Llanfair after they spend the evening together. She thanks him for a great time, though he explains the smile on her face is really due to the fact that she got to spend some time with John. Téasing each other over past relationships and their past with Roxy, the siblings suddenly turn serious when Rex tries to push her a little too hard into going after John. The end result is tiramisu all over Rex but he continues to egg her on. When a fuming Dorian knocks on the door, the fun ends. Blaming Viki as usual for Kevin and Todd seeing her nieces and vowing that Adriana will never have anything to do with Duke, she demands that Natalie awaken her mother. Nat refuses and threatens her bodily harm, finally managing to toss her out. Not before Dorian manages to get some rude comments in first. Rex is excited as he sees the "old Nat" is back. Denying changing in any way, either before or now, Natalie is still deep in thought when her brother leaves.
