"In his living room, Jake noted that Amanda had stayed up all night. He told her that Janet was still unconscious. Amanda admitted that she'd thought for a moment that Janet had died, and for that moment, Amanda had felt glad. She knew that she should love her mother, who was sick, but she just wanted it all to stop. She thought that her feelings made her a terrible child.
Jake reasoned that it was terrible that Amanda's mother had killed Amanda's father. He didn't want her to blame herself for wanting to be rid of Janet. Amanda explained that when Janet's eyes had rolled back in her head, Amanda had thought that she'd made Janet have a stroke. Amanda sobbed that she had an evil side to her. Jake replied that Amanda wouldn't hurt a soul; however, she stated that she might have killed her own mother.
Jake said that Janet's stroke had been inevitable, but Amanda expressed guilt for not bothering to visit or call Janet when she'd been locked up. Amanda felt guilty for trying to pretend that her mother had never existed. Jake reasoned that if Janet had never existed, then he wouldn't have Amanda in his life.
Jake went to check on Trevor, and Amanda cringed as she remembered that Janet had exclaimed that Amanda was her mother's daughter. The hospital called Jake in to work, but before leaving, he handed the baby to Amanda and said that only the three of them mattered. As Jake left, Amanda looked uneasy.
At the Martin house, Tad discussed his sons, JR and Damon, with Krystal. Tad wondered what kind of a father he was, and he shuddered to think about what Damon might pull next. Krystal suggested Tad give Damon time. She figured that Damon was acting out, but he'd return when he got hungry, or ran out of clean underwear.
In the Chandler parlor, Colby found Damon shirtless with a mini saw in hand. He asked her to give him a hand removing his cast before he accidentally cut off one of his own. After they got the cast off, they joked around a bit. Damon said that Colby could change her mind about having him stay there, but she replied that she needed him to help her stay sane.
Colby asked how things were with Tad, but Damon didn't know. He couldn't get over knowing that Tad had just left Hillary with a kid. "Isn't that what you kinda did to Bailey?" Colby asked. Damon got defensive, and she explained that she'd just said it to help Damon see Tad's side of it. Damon felt that he stepped up for Stuart, but Colby countered that Tad was trying to do the same thing. "Yeah, but how many years later?" Damon asked.
Colby reasoned that Hillary hadn't ever told Tad, but Damon retorted that all Tad had to do was call Hillary to check on her. Damon didn't know who he was anymore, but Colby didn't think the paternity changed anything. She wished that that Tad and Damon would get along, because she liked them both. Damon said that she was the most sensible person that he knew.
Damon kissed Colby, and upon entering, Liza groaned that they needed to put some clothes on. Liza announced that Bailey had called because she'd been accepted to study abroad for a month. Bailey's parents didn't want to keep Stuart fulltime, so that meant that Damon had to go to Ohio to be a father to his son. Colby asserted that Damon couldn't leave because of his probation. Liza was certain that they could get some sort of "dispensation," but Colby suggested that Stuart just move into the Chandler mansion.
Liza stated that Colby couldn't just move a baby in there, but Colby reasoned that Emma and AJ lived there, so Stuart could, too. Damon said Colby was "so cool" for doing that. Damon left the room to call Bailey, and Liza urged Colby to think things through. Liza wondered why Colby wanted to be with a guy who had a baby.
Damon returned to say that Bailey had agreed to let Stuart stay at the mansion. Colby stared dreamily at Damon as he left again, but she insisted to Liza that Damon was just a friend. Mother and daughter bickered about Damon, and Liza explained that having Stuart fulltime was not the same as babysitting him. Colby roared at Liza to back off, but before agreeing to do so, Liza asserted that Colby should be living her own life, not raising someone else's kid.
Liza left the mansion, but she and Colby ran into each other later on at the hospital. Liza assumed that Colby was pregnant, and Colby agreed that she was. Liza grimaced, and Colby decided that she wasn't pregnant. She said she'd just stuff a pillow under her shirt, adopt a baby for everyone to fall in love with, and then give the baby back later. Colby stalked off, and around the corner, she looked at the birth control pills that she'd just picked up from the doctor.
Damon went to the casino, where he encountered Tad. "So you're my dad," Damon said with an awkward shrug. Tad said that he'd messed up, but Damon reasoned that it wasn't Tad's fault that Hillary hadn't been upfront. Damon revealed that Stuart would live with Damon for a while, and they chatted about Damon's medications. Damon said that he wasn't going to start calling Tad "Dad." Tad recommended Thaddeus, but cringed when Damon said it.
Ryan dropped Greenlee off at Wildwind. David opened the door and greeted her with a hug and kiss. David ushered her inside, and with a polite thanks, he closed the door on Ryan.
Inside, Greenlee announced that, with things settled, she'd kick Erica's butt out of Fusion. David gave her the good news about the hospital, and Greenlee cooed that they were a power couple. He suggested that she relax, but Greenlee needed to take her paperwork to Jack's office. She said that she and David would celebrate that evening.
Greenlee exited, and David called Madison to tell her that Ryan had returned to town. David ordered Madison to get on it. "Or shall I say get on him," David corrected.
At Jack's office, Greenlee bragged about how she'd charmed the Brazilian bigwigs into submission, but then she conceded that she'd had help from Ryan. At Jack's stern gaze, Greenlee insisted that she and Ryan were friends, and they'd gotten along better than they ever had. Jack wished that she hadn't returned home to David, but she reminded her father that David was the reason that she hadn't sunk to the bottom of some river.
Greenlee insisted that she was happy with David, who supported her and challenged her. The best part of it was that she and David had trust, and trust was everything. Jack noted that Greenlee used to say all those things about Ryan. Greenlee stated that she'd accepted that she and Ryan weren't meant to be, and she didn't regret it. She brought up how Jack refused to drop-kick Erica, and he ended the conversation. Before leaving, Greenlee instructed him to file her paperwork and forward the copies to Brazil, because her campaign depended on it.
At Fusion, Randi updated Erica on their gala preparation. Erica wondered where Greenlee had been for two days. When Randi mentioned the Rio trip, Erica remarked that Greenlee was still deluded enough to think that she could win. Erica called Ryan and said that since he'd spent the last couple days with her competition, he should make some time for Erica. He agreed to meet her at BJ's for breakfast.
Later, Ryan grinned as he sat across the table from Erica, who was worked up about him helping Greenlee in the Fusion competition. He said that he'd merely gone to Rio to undo an old deal that he'd made, and it was a deal that Fusion hadn't even needed anymore. Ryan added that in return for his help, he'd gotten Greenlee to recant her statements about Kendall. Erica appreciated that, but she was still bitter that he'd helped her competition. Ryan stated that it was done between Greenlee and him. "Sure it is," Erica skeptically replied.
After Erica left, Madison joined Ryan at the table. She wondered if it'd been weird traveling with Greenlee. Ryan said that it hadn't been, and he changed the subject to Madison. She said she'd just had her third date with a guy, and Ryan hoped the guy was better than Craig.
Later, Erica strode into Wildwind, and David said that he didn't recall letting Erica in. "And I don't recall that you were stupid," Erica retorted, referring to him letting Greenlee go away with Ryan. David said that he trusted his wife, and he didn't feel threatened by Ryan. Erica guessed that David just didn't see the pull between Greenlee and Ryan, and Erica stated that there was nothing keeping them apart. David moved Greenlee's bag to sit down. It fell over, and the pregnancy test tumbled out. "Then again, maybe there is," Erica said.
David looked surprised as he studied the box. Erica noted that the union between David and Greenlee had gone further than expected. He ordered Erica to leave, and she congratulated him as she walked out the door.
When Greenlee arrived home, she excitedly talked about celebrating with David. He said that he was worried about her, but she didn't think there was a reason to be. David whipped out the pregnancy test, and she immediately dispelled the idea that she had the test because of Ryan. David already knew that, but he wondered why his wife was keeping secrets from him.
Later, Erica dropped by Jack's office to see if he'd known about the Rio trip. Jack said that he'd just found out, but he couldn't break father-daughter/attorney-client privilege to say anything more. When Jack wasn't looking, Erica shuffled some papers on his desk and saw Greenlee's Bahia file. Jack left the room to take a call, and Erica stole the file."
