"At Miller's Falls in the State Park, David told Anna they couldn't stop looking for Leo. A member of the SWAT team interrupted them to tell Police Chief Devane that Leo struggled with Vanessa and they both fell into the falls to the water below when the railing broke. Greenlee, hysterical, was brought to the police command center. She demanded everyone to keep searching for Leo as David restrained her from going back to the falls. She called out Leo's name frantically. She believed he was still alive. Mary Smythe rushed to the scene and tried to calm Greenlee. Greenlee didn't want comforting from her. Greenlee told her mother she doesn't want to be like her: a cold, distant, washed-up widow. Mary was shocked. David told Greenlee to go to the hospital and get her bruises from the fall checked out. She refused to go. She has to look for Leo. She screamed hysterically at Anna, blaming her for not stopping Vanessa. David got medication from his medical bag and gave it to Greenlee to calm her. She was transported by the medical unit to Pine Valley Hospital with David by her side.
