Amy/Annie:
At the Liberty Corporation Amy, still dressed as a Novice, is threatening Annie that she can blow the whistle on her and that she has the upper hand and there is nothing Annie can do about it. Annie told Amy that she is way out of her league but Amy went on to say that she won't feel that way once she told everyone about the potion she received from Mrs. Moreau which made Olivia start drinking again. Annie responds by saying that no one will believe a nymphomaniac, surfer girl that believes she's a nun. But Amy responds by saying that they will believe her as soon as she takes them directly to Mrs. Moreau. Annie threatens her by saying that if she reveals the truth about Mrs. Moreau, everyone will find out how pathetic Amy is that she had to drug a guy to get him to sleep with her. But Amy interrupts and says that she's not concerned what others think of her because she's lost Sean for good and if Annie doesn't help her get him back immediately she will start singing like a bird. Annie told her that she is guilty of a crime and that Amy is now an accessory to everything that she's done and no one will believe Amy. Annie went on to say that she will end up going to jail but Amy tells her that without Sean her life is over and all that she has left is to make Annie pay. Just then Bette walks into the office.

Olivia/Tobias/Jude/AJ/Bette:
Tobias is encouraging a drunken Olivia to search Caitlin's bedroom for some clue as to where she has gone with Trey and Sean. As soon as Olivia went upstairs, Tobias using Gregory's voice damns Olivia saying that he has not gone through all of this just to lose Caitlin to Cole again. Just then he picks up a vase of flowers and hurls it toward the front door just as Jude walks in. Gregory returns in character as Tobias saying that he didn't see Jude come in. Jude responds by brushing the shattered vase pieces off his jacket and asks Tobias what is going on. As they continue to talk Olivia returns telling Tobias she couldn't find any evidence as to where the children had gone, but Tobias questions how thorough the search was considering she didn't take time to put down the drink in her hand. Olivia looks at Tobias with drunken bewilderment just as Jude asks if there is anything he can do to help. Tobias responds saying that it's none of Jude's business. Just then the doorbell rings and in walks AJ and Bette asking if it's true that Caitlin and Sean took Trey and left the country. Jude interrupts asking if Cole contacted Caitlin. AJ says no, Cole has not been in touch and all he knows is that he received a message from Caitlin stating that she left SB with Sean and Trey to find Cole. Jude interrupts again asking to use the phone so he can make some calls in the attempt to track them down. As Jude went upstairs, AJ told Olivia that he and Bette are there to have a serious discussion about her drinking. They all follow her into the living room telling her that her children left town, breaking the law, to keep Olivia from doing to Trey what she did to them. Bette and AJ go on to say that they love her but that they will not stick around to watch her destroy herself with the drinking. Olivia begs them to stop, she begins crying saying that they are right. Bette embraces Olivia and told her that they're not there to hurt her and Olivia admits that she knows they love her but she has to face this drinking problem on her own. She asks to speak to AJ alone. Bette says she loves her and leaves. Tobias go upstairs to check on Jude's progress. Olivia kisses AJ and thanks him for his help but AJ says it sounds as though she is saying good-bye.

Jude is alone in the Tobias' bedroom. As he finishes talking to private investigators about tracking Caitlin down he hangs up the phone and opens the desk draw looking for a pen. Instead he finds a photo of Gregory. As he stare into a photo Tobias walks into the room. Tobias turns to close the door just as Jude says "This isn't going as planned. Is it Gregory?"

Ricardo/Gabi/Antonio/Carmen:
Outside of Ricardo's apartment, Gabi is trying to get Carmen to confide in her but Carmen reflects back to a conversation with Ricardo earlier, saying that if Carmen told anyone he can walk, he will never speak to her again. As a result Carmen just told Gabi that she is worried about Ricardo. She flashes back to when she walked into the apartment and found Ricardo walking, but as she comes out of the flash back she told Gabi she is just worried about the two of them. Gabi told Carmen that the worst is over and she feels that things are getting back on track with Ricardo but she continues to question Carmen as to why she is so upset. Carmen covers by saying she is worried that he's overdoing it. Gabi responds by saying that she will do everything to make sure Ricardo is fine. Carmen thanks her and bids goodnight.

Meanwhile inside the apartment, Ricardo is attempting to persuade Antonio to go to the Timeshare with Gabi tonight but Antonio explains that he is too busy with a special class that evening for the parents of his Catechism class. Ricardo begins to get upset saying that he doesn't understand why Antonio can't just do him this favor and went on to explain that he's just so frustrated and apologizes for getting upset. He then explains that he was looking forward to getting away with Gabi for some kind of honeymoon and he that he only had the Cabin for a few more days. He continues to make Antonio feel guilty for turning him down and Antonio finally gives in saying "let me see what I can do about making other arrangements." As Antonio picks up the Phone to call the Mission, Ricardo thinks to himself that he's got him. Gabi comes back into the apartment and told Ricardo that Carmen was just concerned about him but didn't say anything specific, it's just a feeling she had. Just then Antonio gets off the phone and Ricardo asks if he has made the arrangements to be available to go with Gabi to the cabin. Antonio announces that he has and as he and Gabi make sandwiches for their trip, Ricardo reflects on all the plans he's been making in order to set Antonio and Gabi to pay for all they've done to him.

Meanwhile, Carmen is doing a card reading and continues to see a warning but is confused as to which of her children it's referring to.

Back at the apartment, Gabi and Antonio are about to leave when Antonio knocks the mail off the table. Gabi picks up the mail and notices a letter from the Insurance Company, marked urgent. As she begins to open it, Ricardo yells at her to stop.

Brad and Emily are working at the Lifeguard Headquarters and Brad is talking away and begins to tease her by saying he's dating Chelsea Clinton, and then he told Emily that she hasn't heard a word he's been saying and asks if it has something to do with Sean. Emily apologizes saying that Sean is gone and has left SB for good. Brad questions her about Sean's reasons, asking if Sean only left to get Emily back but she dismisses that idea saying Sean is not like that, he doesn't play games. But Brad interrupts saying that she didn't think Sean would cheat either but again Emily dismisses his comments. Brad comments about Amy finding out and Emily says that she already knows and she's "nun" too happy. Emily went on to say that Amy is pretending to become a nun just to get Sean back but that it's not working to influence him. She goes on to talk about how she trusted Amy and Sean but they both let her down and now Brad was the only one she could trust. Just then Brad flashes back to when Amy got him to help before she drugged Sean. As he comes out of the flash back, he looks at Emily and sighs.

Olivia walks in on a private chat between Jude and Gregory but is too drunk to realize that "Tobias" is not who he seems to be.

Bette rails at her niece for her lack of sympathy towards Olivia. Ricardo places an urgent call to Michael. At the cottage, Antonio gently presses Gabi to disclose her secret.

Gabi and Antonio at the Cabin:
Gabi and Antonio are talking about Ricardo knowing. Antonio says that he has to let Ricardo knows, or things will get worse. Gabi asks how things will get worse, and Antonio says he can't just pretend that he doesn't know Ricardo knows, it will do what they have been trying not to do: ruin all their relationships. Gabi says that Ricardo has been dealing, his way of dealing is to let Antonio believe Ricardo doesn't know. Antonio says that the reason he, Maria and Carmen agreed to keep the secret is because they know that Ricardo loves and hates with passion and always has. They were afraid of what would happen to everyone once Ricardo found out. Gabi says that she knows that it is a shock, and begs Antonio to listen. Antonio says that if Ricardo had forgiven him, he would not have told Gabi not to tell him Ricardo knew.

Michael starts to warm up, and agrees Ricardo can go...............but Michael will drive him up there. Ricardo yells "NO!" Michael looks at him funny, and says that Ricardo just started walking, he shouldn't be driving alone, besides, if Antonio is already there, it isn't like Michael would be getting in the way of anything. Michael gets paged and has to go, but says he'll be back to take Ricardo and makes him promise not to leave. Ricardo agrees and Michael leaves, then Ricardo leaves too. The Cabin:

Maria tells him that the more bodies, the harder to escape. He can take all Ben's money and just leave. Derek told her that he is only keeping her alive because he needs her to make the plan work. Tess calls and told him not to kill Casey because they might need him. Derek takes Maria into another room.
