At the police station, Tom and Margo Hughes discover that Henry Coleman has disappeared from Deerbrook Hospital. They immediately know that Henry must be up to something with Katie, so they rush over to the hospital. When they arrive, Nurse Rockwell informs them that Katie must have permission from Dr. Tanner to have visitors, even the visitor is her sister. Furthermore, Nurse Rockwell had to sedate Katie when Katie became agitated because the nurse would not permit Katie to see Henry. Margo and Tom demand to see Henry, threatening to come back in the morning with a court order otherwise. When Nurse Rockwell leaves the room, Katie finds Margo and Tom in the waiting room. Katie, obviously not sedated, hurriedly tells them that Henry was helping her prove Pilar's guilt, then Katie rushes away when she hears Nurse Rockwell approach with Henry. The nurse wheels in a drugged Henry, telling Margo and Tom that they may have fifteen minutes with Henry. Tom looks at Henry's chart and discovers that Henry is a voluntary patient, therefore Tom demands that the hospital release Henry immediately. When Nurse Rockwell goes to start the paperwork, Katie reappears and tells Margo and Tom that Pilar had come to Deerbrook to show Katie a picture of herself and Mike in bed together. Katie begs Margo and Tom to listen to Henry as soon as the drugs wear off and he is coherent again. Agreeing to pay attention to Henry, Margo and Tom take him home, and Wellington, the patient who calls himself "Sergeant P. Mitchell Musgrove," sadly tells Katie that a secret agent from Planet Zarcon has stolen his pith helmet, leaving him unprotected. Katie hugs him and reassures him that she won't let anything hurt him, but she does not see the helmeted silhouette in the background.
Mike's telephone rings, and Pilar answers to find Russ demanding that she get him out of jail immediately. Mike returns, and Pilar concocts a story that she is afraid that Russ' lawyers will be rough on her in court. Pilar suggests that she would like to make a deal with Russ, in which she will refuse to testify against him if he will promise to stay away from her. Mike objects, and Pilar announces, "I have to do what I feel is right for me. I'm sorry if you don't like it," and stalks out of the room. Mike continues to insist that Pilar do the right thing and testify, and Pilar turns away, rolling her eyes and not knowing what to do next. Russ calls again and threatens to tell the police the truth about Pilar, so she pretends that the call was from the manager of the Wagon Wheel Motel, and she leaves, telling Mike that she has to pick up a check.
Barbara asks Dr. Walker Daniels to take the bandages off her eyes in private, so that she can have time to put on a brave front for Jennifer and Paul if she is still blind.

After Walker leaves, Barbara receives a large bouquet of red roses whit a card which reads, "Get well soon, honey. Love, James." Her face changes from happy to terrified in an instant.
In Rosanna's suite, Paul and Rosanna discuss the bombshell that James dropped on them, telling them that Jordan is Cabot's biological father. Paul suggests that Rosanna first determine, through a DNA test, that Jordan actually is Cabot's father. Next, Paul suggests that Rosanna contact a lawyer to have herself declared Cabot's legal guardian, and to have her marriage to Jordan annulled. He also suggests taking steps to have Jordan's parental rights taken away. Then Paul stuns Rosanna by suggesting that she take Cabot away "as far and as fast as you can." He adds, "This time, Rosanna, there will be no turning back." Paul quickly calls Dr. Daniels and leaves a message to set up a dna test to find out if Jordan actually is the biological father, then he leaves Rosanna after receiving a call from Jennifer. Paul tells Rosanna that, if she leaves town with Cabot, facing James Stenbeck's wrath will be easier for him than saying goodbye to Rosanna. Soon Dr. Daniels arrives at Rosanna's door, where she explains that Paul had called him on her behalf. She tells Walker that "someone" has claimed to be Cabot's biological father, and she asks the doctor, "I'd like to screen his DNA without his knowledge. Can you do that for me?" Rosanna offers to provide a hairbrush or toothbrush, and Walker agrees to do the test, although he warns Rosanna that any evidence they discover in this way cannot be used in court. Walker agrees to take Cabot's sample right away. Before leaving, Walker advises Rosanna to be open with her new husband. Just then Jordan walks in the door, and asks what it is that Rosanna should be telling him.
While Rosanna and Paul are talking in Rosanna's suite, at BRO, Jordan and Jennifer are kissing and declaring their love to each other. Jordan tells Jennifer the entire truth about his marriage to Rosanna, including the facts that he has signed Cabot's adoption papers, and that the documents require that he and Rosanna stay married for two years. When Jennifer suggests asking her father, Police Chief Hal Munson, to find out who is behind the adoption plan, Jordan asks her to wait to see if he and Rosanna can work it out for themselves within the two week deadline he has given Rosanna. Jennifer agrees and they kiss again. After Jordan leaves, Jennifer calls Paul and asks him to come meet her at BRO. When Paul arrives, he assures Jennifer that Rosanna plans to cut Jordan loose as soon as possible. Paul does not tell Jennifer that James Stenbeck is behind the adoption plan, but he does assure Jennifer that he wants her to be happy and is happy for her and Jordan, whom he admires for going to such great lengths to help Rosanna. Paul flatly tells Jennifer that Rosanna wants to get out of the marriage with Jordan as much as Jordan wants to get away from her.
Margo brings Henry to Mike's place. Margo tells Mike that Henry was babbling something in the car but she couldn't understand what he was saying. Henry blurts out, she is not crazy. Katie is not crazy. Mike looks stunned. As Henry is being fed coffee, he tells Mike that Pilar has been setting him up. Everything that Katie was saying was true. It couldn't be proven because Pilar always did these things when no one was around. Mike asks Henry if there is any proof. Henry says yes, when he broke out of his not too happy place, he went to see Russ and Russ told him that he and Pilar had been plotting against him and Katie from the beginning. Margo tells Mike that she checked and Pilar did go to see Katie at the hospital. Henry says that Pilar showed Katie a picture of the two of them in bed. Margo says she will check into the case again.

Then when it's paid, he can jump bail and wait for the money from her. Pilar says he has to do it or he will end up with nothing. She will send him his share. That having him around is making it harder. He tells her she only has 24 hours or he starts singing "like Julio Iglesias and his kid."
Outside of the cell room, Pilar calls a friend, and asks if he would like to meet and have a drink. Pilar is waiting for her friend. He arrives and thinks that Pilar is coming on to him. After all, when a guy gets a call late at night, and is asked to come to a hotel, it means she wants him. Pilar tells him, he has the wrong impression. She needs to ask him a favor. She needs to borrow $5,000.00 from him for a month. She will then pay him back $10,000.00. He tells her definitely not. She needs to get a job or steal it. Pilar arrives back at Mike's place.

He is thrilled but tells her he felt as though she wanted to tell him something. As she starts, Jennifer comes in. Barbara comments on how beautiful she is and Jennifer realizes that her Mother can see her. She is thrilled, and as the two of them talk, Dr. Daniel's comes in and Paul steps outside to speak with him. Walker tells Paul that the sample is being checked on now. Dr. Daniels says that he loves science, it's normally people that present the problems, and the problems always come back and haunt them. Paul says that if Rosanna wants something, it must be important. Jordan enters Barbara's room with press clippings of the show. It was definitely a hit and Barbara is very happy that everything went well. Jordan is leaving and asks Jennifer if she would like to walk him out. She does and outside Jordan tells Jennifer what Rosanna had to say. Jennifer says, that Paul had exactly the same thing to say. Jennifer comes back with, you know when things seem too good to be true, they normally are, so maybe we should find out what Rosanna and Paul are keeping from them. Later, Jennifer makes a call. She meets with Lucy. Lucy tells Jennifer that Craig got Cabot from Canada illegally, then the police found them and they lost him and the birth Mother took him back.

Jennifer arrives at Craig's. She wants to know Cabot's history. She claims to know that Jordan and Rosanna's marriage is a high stakes game. She knows that Jordan, Rosanna and Cabot are all mixed up in it and she wants to know how Jordan figures in. Craig tells her that Cabot will belong to Rosanna alone and God help any man, woman or child that comes between them. Then Jennifer asks, why, did Rosanna ask Jordan to adopt Cabot. Craig gives Jennifer a business card with the name of Annabelle Feddle on it. She is the one responsible for getting Cabot in the first place. She is known as a baby broker. After seeing Jordan and speaking with Barbara, the strong willed Jennifer makes a call to Annabelle claiming it is Rosanna and she needs to meet with her to clear up a snag in the adoption papers.
Craig calls Rosanna and tells her that he is going to sue her for joint custody of Cabot Montgomery. Rosanna warns Craig not to interfere with what she is doing. Craig tells her that he thinks she is trying to hurt him, and by God, she is not going to get away with that. Rosanna listens to a phone conversation made by Craig in what was once their home. She starts throwing things at Craig and then shows him an eviction notice. He has 24 hours to vacate the premises. She tells him, be careful who you threaten. She leaves and then receives a call from Dr. Daniels stating that he sent a copy of the report she is waiting for to her home, and hope it is what she wants.

He says he was always careful because of being brought up in an orphanage, he didn't want anything to happen. Rosanna says, who knows why he wasn't notified? Maybe the Mother didn't want Cabot to be a burden, or she wanted Cabot to go to someone who would love him unconditionally. She asks Jordan to please give him to her. He will have a good life and she can take care of him, please just sign the papers. Jennifer says that whoever set this up knew the truth, why else would they want Jordan. Jordan is not thrilled. Jennifer tells him he grew up in an orphanage, he has someone he belongs to now. Jordan tells Rosanna, he will sign the papers. She is a good Mother. Jennifer is shocked. She talks Jordan out of it. You owe it to Cabot to realize that someday he will want to know his Father. Jordan tells Rosanna, he needs time to figure out what he wants. A piece of paper changes everything. Jordan, finally says that, as is Father, he has that right. Rosanna, who is ready to fall apart, tells Jordan they will start over, and, for Cabot's sake, will work everything out.
