At the police station, Jack continues to look for his badge in his desk while Mitzi looks over his shoulder. Margo walks in and he asks her if she's seen it. She hasn't. He thinks someone stole it, and seeing Margo reminds him of Craig. Margo gets a call from Officer Slocomb at Fairwinds. Slocomb says that the coffin is gone. While Margo is on the phone, Jack gives Mitzi the keys to his place and tells her to go ahead and move in some of her things. Margo gets off the phone and tells Jack about the coffin. Jack flips his lip. Margo and Jack head out to Fairwinds to check out what happened.
Craig gets out of the coffin and enters the cockpit. The pilot says, "Tell me you didn't just come out of that coffin." As Craig takes a seat next to the pilot, he says, "Like a Phoenix. Rising from the ashes." The pilot threatens to land the plane, but Jack shows him Jack's badge and tells him he better start answering some questions. Using his newly acquired police authority, Craig presses the pilot for info about Carly, Emily, and Rose. While Craig reaches down to pick up a flight log, the pilot grabs Craig's badge. He opens the flap and finds a picture of Jack on the inside. "How long have you been dying your hair?" The pilot decides to have a little fun and veers the plane up and down making Craig sick. Later, Craig appeals to the pilots conscience and says he doesn't care about the Cuban cigars he might be carrying. He does, however, care about the women he helped transport out of the country. This gets to the pilot and he tells Craig that all he knows is that he took the coffins to Marseilles, France. Satisfied, Craig asks him to turn the plane around and get back to Oakdale.
Jack is royally peeved that Slocomb lost the casket and tells him that he better go find the who, what, when, why, and how, and to not show his face until he has answers. Margo tries to calm Jack down, but he says he "can't let up...not when Stenbeck is involved." Jack presses Margo to find Craig. He's sure that if they find Craig, they'll find the missing casket.

She says she threw it in a trash bag and it's outside. He snaps at her, and she offers to go through the trash to find the right magazine. He tells her not to bother and walks upstairs. Mitzi feels horrible for losing Jack's clue and goes after the trash bag. She's paging through her third magazine when Jack comes back downstairs and tells her that the magazine he's looking for was actually at work. She apologizes and says that if she's in his way, "these boots were made for walkin'." He apologizes and then smells the meal Mitzi cooked for them. She says there's nothing for him to apologize for and she goes to the kitchen to put the finishing touches on dinner. On her way out of the room, she says, "I'll remind you to not give up hope, if you do the same for me." Jack then tells her to move her things in the bedroom. She thinks that's a little forward of him, until he says that he'll be staying on the couch.
