At Cedars:
Reva is waiting for her test results talking to Marah. Marah tells her about Sam and his idea about her birthday party. Marah tells Reva he will handle everything but the cake. She talks about the great chocolate cake Reva has always made from her grandma's recipe. She tells Reva not to worry about baking it this year, she will settle for a bought cake. Reva seems disappointed and tells Marah that there has always been something magical about making your child's birthday cake. Marah tells her that they will make it together then. Reva liked that idea. The doctor came out and tells Reva that her progress hasn't been what they had hoped and he has to tell her that it is possible she may never get her sight back. Reva is angry that the doctor even suggested she should give up hope. The doctor tells Reva there has been no improvement. Her eyes aren't responding to the treatment and people who regain their site usually show improvement by now. He wants her to face the fact that she may never see. Reva tells the doctor she will see again. The doctor says he isn't saying she won't regain her sight; he just wants her to start thinking about adjusting to her current situation. He offers to call Noah for her but she says he is waiting on her at home. The doctor leaves. Reva tells Marah she wants to go home. Marah offers to call Josh but Reva says she has a fiancé at home who she will talk to. Marah wonders why she can't call her dad. Reva says that Noah asked Josh to back off and she thinks Noah is right. Reva said she has hurt Noah by making him feel second and she will not do that again. Marah says Noah is a big boy and should realize that Reva has a right to be selfish now. Marah says Josh has been around her whole life and he is whom she should call. Reva says she does have a history with Josh but she wants to build intimacy with Noah and he is the one she wants to run home and share this with. Reva asks Marah if she expected her blindness to bring her and Josh back together. Marah says she just wants her to have the people around her that she needs. She feels Reva doesn't let go around her kids or Noah and makes jokes instead. But with Josh she doesn't do that. Reva leaves to feel out some forms while Marah stays behind and calls her dad.
At Harley's:
Harley wakes up on the couch when she hears Zach on the monitor. She tries to roll over and ignore it when Phillip sticks his head in the door. He asks if she is okay and she tells him she is glad to see him. She tells him how tired she is and asks him to take care of Zach. Phillip asks if she is sick and she tells him she is just a bit tired. Phillip suggests Rick check her out but Harley says she will be fine. Phillip tells her that he is leaving to go to SC and after a short run in, Harley tells him to bring their friends home safely. Richard calls Phillip on his cell and tells him to contact Reva and Noah. Noah will be needed to help in their escape and Reva needs to know that he and Cassie are alright. Phillip tells him he will contact him the next day. Phillip tells Harley that he knows it is killing her not to be involved in this. She tells him she would rather be helping save friends then working to destroy them. He tells her that he heard she was put on the Santos case. Harley hates it but Phillip tells her it will probably be better that Michelle and Danny have someone on their side instead of someone wanting to bury them. Harley tells him her new boss wants to bury them. Right on cue, Gus shows up and Phillip answers the door. Harley introduces the two and Phillip excuses himself after telling Gus to lighten up on Harley, she needs some rest. Phillip leaves. Gus tells Harley she may be tired because every time he comes over there is a different guy there. Harley is offended. She tells him that she Phillip is her ex-husband and babies father. She tells him she is off the clock and she has a life. Gus asks her to make him some coffee. He tells her he thinks she isn't a real cop since she doesn't make coffee, eat doughnuts and she has a social life. Harley tells her that having a life and being close to people reminds her of why she is a cop. He calls her a people person and tells her that her people skills will be handy in her next assignment. Gus tells her that she has to plant a bug in the Bauer house. Harley doesn't want to but Gus tells her that she has to make a decision whether she wants to be a good friend or a good cop. Harley tells Gus he probably doesn't have any friends. He says he does and he would put his house in a second. He trusts the system. Harley says he makes her sick. She runs to the bathroom, really sick.
At Lewis Construction office:
Tony is working when two construction guys come in and tell him they thought the Santos were out of business. Tony tells them he is just working for his girlfriend's dad. They don't believe him and think he is there to cause trouble and revive the Santos business. Tony tells them he isn't there for that but they don't buy it. Tony tells them he doesn't want to get in to this with them and doesn't want to cause any trouble on the site. They shove him up against the wall and say they want to take Tony for a ride. Tony says they don't have to leave to settle the problem. He isn't trying to do anything but make an honest living. The guys aren't buying it and think that Tony is working there to infiltrate the business. Tony gets away from the wall and turns to punch one of the guys just as Josh enters. Josh asks what is going on now. The two men tell Josh and Billy they were just getting acquainted with Tony. Josh tells the guys to leave and asks Tony if it is possible for him to stay out of trouble. Just then Marah calls Josh and she tells him about the doctor's visit. She wants Josh to come comfort her mom. He tells her he can't do that and asks her to come over to the site alone after she drops her mom off with Noah. Josh tells Billy that Marah is coming over and Billy suggests Josh go talk to Tony's new buddies before Marah gets there. Josh leaves. Tony tells Billy he won't fit in there. Not with the pillars of the community, Billy laughs. Billy tells Tony that the greatest thing about Josh is that he is very forgiving. He was holding out his hand when he offered Tony this job. Billy assures Tony that the love of a woman can take you places, but Tony is the only one who can make the change. Marah arrives and Billy asks her if Reva has seen the doctor. Marah tells Billy she has and will probably need a call from him. Billy says he will call her later and he leaves to go outside. Marah apologizes to Tony for her tantrum. Tony says he didn't believe a minute of it; he knew she found him irresistible. Tony kisses her and asks about her mom. Marah tells him about the doctor's visit and says Reva is dealing with it by not dealing with it; instead she is planning her birthday party. Tony offers to help out but Marah tells him Sam is planning it. Tony is annoyed that "Puppy Dog" is helping and wonders why she doesn't want him to help. Marah tells him that she would rather Tony concentrate on her and not her party. She tells him she is jealous about the job to, she wants him all to herself and now she has to share him with her dad too. Tony says he took the job so he could be with her. The job isn't going perfectly but he will try to see it through. Marah tells him she doesn't want him to get hurt and her family can be cruel. She tells him she just wasn't ready to share him with anyone. He kisses her again just as Josh walks in. Tony leaves to take some papers to Billy. Josh and Marah discuss Tony and then her mom. Marah tells Josh she is upset because of what is going on with Reva. She is putting on a brave front and needs comfort from Josh since he knows how to help her. Josh says Noah is right about setting boundaries but tells Marah she should try to make Reva see she is the same person. Marah is upset that Josh won't help and Josh asks she should give Tony space at work as well. He thinks her being there will only make it harder for him to succeed.
At the Lewis House:
Marah and Reva arrive home. Sam is there and offers to take Marah to school. Noah wonders what the doctor said. Reva says she may not regain her sight and has to face it by making some changes. Reva tells Noah she has to relearn things. Noah tells her she is amazing doing things that even sighted people wouldn't do. He reminds her how she went after Edmund and then beat up the intruder that broke in. Reva says she does enjoy spending more time with the kids but that is being selfish and she needs to learn to do more. Reva doesn't want her children protecting her; that is her job. She will learn to be independent again.
Outside, Sam tells Marah that her mom needs help but Reva doesn't want to let on to her that she does. Marah wished Tony was there and thinks she is selfish for thinking of Tony after the news her mom got. Sam says that while Marah was telling him all about her mom he was thinking how beautiful she was and asked her if that made him selfish. Marah smiles and says she doesn't know why Sam wastes his time with her. Sam says that her mother will be all right and things will work out with Tony. He tells her he will take her to school but she tells him she has to go by the site to see her dad.
Noah tells Reva she defies all the rules and this prognosis may not be right. He tells her he fell in love with her and isn't going anywhere. He kisses her and the doorbell interrupts. It is Phillip. He wants to talk to both of them. He has news about Richard and Cassie. He tells them what is going on and about the escape plan. Phillip says Richard wants a back up plan and he asks Noah for help. Noah is reluctant to help because Reva needs him right now but Reva wants him to go to San Cristobel . She trusts him to help Richard and Cassie get out safely. Noah agrees to help but says he will travel separately so the guards won't even know he is on the island. He says he will contact a few people that will be able to help them.
In San Cristobel:
Richard comes in to check on Cassie. She tells him she is hot and throws her blanket off. Richard sees her foot has black and blue lines around it and Richard is concerned. Richard tells her that it looks like there must still be a piece of the spine still in her foot that is causing blood poisoning. He feels her forehead and tells her she is burning up with fever. He tries to pick her up, telling her that she has to get to the hospital immediately. She tells him they can't go, Edmund will catch them and they will both be put in prison. He tells her that the poison is flowing fast through her blood stream towards her heart and if it gets past her groin area there is no hope. Cassie tells him that she doesn't want him to get captured again. Richard tells her that he can survive imprisonment, torture and anything else Edmund can dish out but he cannot live if she were to die. Richard tells her he loves her and God isn't so cruel that he would separate them now. Richard calls for Mrs. Weymouth and vows not to let Cassie die. Richard gives Cassie a drink of water. He asks Lydia to tell Cassie how serious blood poisoning can be. Lydia offers to take Cassie to the hospital. Cassie refuses and asks Lydia if she still has her husband's medical bag. She went to get it and Richard searched it for vast supplies and antibiotics. He asks Cassie if she is sure about this and she tells him she trusts him to take care of her. Lydia turns to the window when they hear sirens outside. They seem to drive past and Richard hurries to get through with the medical treatment. He gets the little piece of spine and applies as much antiseptic as he can. He gives Cassie an antibiotic and apologizes for hurting her. Lydia is watching the police out the window. Suddenly, they are right outside, banging on the door. Richard gets Cassie and they sneak out the window. Lydia answers the door and tells the guards they have already searched her home. The guards push past her and search again, finding nothing. They tell Lydia the dogs must have been on a false scent. They leave and Lydia says "Godspeed Prince Richard and Princess Cassie."

Harley tells Frank that Gus got a court order to bug the Bauer's House and she has to plant it. Frank asks if she did it yet. She says she hasn't had time. She asks his opinion on what he thinks will happen if Danny and Michelle find out. Frank tells him that she can't tell them. Harley says she hates doing this especially now that Michelle and Danny are finally happy. Frank asks Harley if she wants Gus to think she doesn't know how to draw the line between her job and friendship. Frank says if Danny is out of the business the bug will get him off the hook, otherwise he will get what he deserves. Harley tells Frank that if Michelle did burn the evidence the bug will incriminate her. Frank tells her Michelle would never do that and the bug will probably only pick up everyone talking baby talk to Robert. Harley says she will do it but she feels like a traitor.

Harley gives Rick his lunch and he tells her she doesn't have to act so guilty. He knows he is just doing her job, investigating his sister. He sees the Bauer family moving away from organized crime and everything will be fine. He tells her that Gus won't find anything because there is nothing to find. Rick gets up for more coffee and Harley tells Frank that Gus won't be satisfied even if Danny is a choirboy. Harley feels bad about having to plant a bug. Frank tries to reassure her and says they have both gotten attached to the Bauer's since they got divorced. Harley doesn't want to get thrown off the barbecue guest list.

Harley says she feels two inches tall. Frank is worried about her health as well. She tries to get him off the subject by telling him Buzz is over there getting more and more angry while reading that book and he should really go talk to him. Frank says he will take care of Buzz. He goes over to him and asks him how he is. Buzz says he is fine and Frank leaves. Frank tells Harley he thinks Buzz may be making peace by reading the book. Harley thinks there may be trouble coming when she sees Blake coming in. Blake tells Ross she can't hide from Buzz any longer, she has to confront him. They go in and see Buzz reading the book. Blake asks Buzz what he thinks. He doesn't say anything and she tells him she knows he is angry. He tells her he isn't angry anymore, now he is furious. He tells her he is furious because it is such a great read. He thinks it is a hell of a book and he can't put it down. So he is mad that she ruined his life and the book is actually enjoyable for him. Buzz says he understands why things happened now. Selena told Blake a lot more than she ever told him. He didn't know that Selena's son knew what happened and left her angry. Buzz wonders if Selena knows where her son is now. Blake says she doesn't know about that. Buzz wants to apologize to Holly and Blake tells him she is in San Cristobel . He asks about Billy and is pleased when Blake says he didn't go with her. Frank says "Fed Alert" when Gus arrives. Gus asks Harley if she planted the bug yet and she says no. He tells her he planted one but she has to be the one to plant the one in the house. He asks her if she is going to throw up again since he is there. Frank gets concerned again. Gus is sure she will build up immunity to him soon. Harley says she is already immune.

Harley tells him that she needs time; she can't just go over there for no apparent reason and bug the house. She tells him that she does have a life and has a child to raise and she just can't drop everything on his every whim. He tells her to place the bug in the back of the living room close to the kitchen so they can catch those conversations as well. Gus tells her they will have a satellite pointed to the bedroom so they can catch what all goes on in there.

Buzz apologizes to Blake and tells her he learned so much about Selena and would like to help make the book a success so it reaches Selena. He offers to have a book signing party at Company and he will invite the press and wonders if Holly would come. Blake thinks this is a ploy to get Holly back. Buzz says only partially.

She tells Buzz to take care of Harley. Buzz tells Harley he thought she would be happy when he made up with Blake. He wonders what is up with her. Harley wonders why people make the same mistakes over and over again. Buzz thinks she is talking about him but she says the mistake is all hers and it will just get bigger and bigger. Buzz tells Harley that whatever she did he has probably done it at least one. Harley is sure he hasn't been in her shoes before.

Harley says she thought she made that mistake because she was young and careless. Her life was finally on track and the world starts spinning again. Frank thinks she is doing just fine.

He goes through the files while he listens and reads about Carmen's death. Inside, Danny tells Michelle he feels betrayed because she talked to others about it. Michelle tells him that she was suffering and had to talk to someone and Danny had cut himself off from her so all she had was her family. She tells him that her family is now his family and they can be trusted. Danny is still not convinced and worried about what will happen if any of it gets out. Michelle tells him that he is just going to have to deal with it because she can't undo it and she doesn't want to. She tells him that if anything he owes her an apology. Danny sits back and tells her that he didn't realize she was so affected by what happened to Carmen and Michelle tells him he couldn't have known because he left her life and wouldn't talk to her.

Michelle tells him that Maureen always told her to give people trust and they will repay you by being trustworthy. Danny tells her he hopes she was right. Michelle thinks they should give Claire a chance. Meanwhile, Harley shows up at the van and listens into the conversation as well. Gus asks her what she knows about Claire and her connection to Carmen. She tells Gus that Claire was there when Carmen died and she handled all the arrangements. Gus thinks that is odd.
