Tony understands what he is telling him and tells Danny just to give him the word and he will take Gus out. Danny tells Tony to calm down. Tony says if Gus is playing dirty he deserves what he gets. Danny doesn't want anything to happen to Gus during his trial because he will end up taking the blame and they would throw away the key. Ray comes back and asks if everything is okay.

Frank asks Gus why he is after Danny and calls him a vigilante. He suggests he should go after the real bad guys. Gus says Infierno is just a cover and when he takes down the Santos family, everyone will see what he sees and want to be his friend.

Catalina enjoys his company and it will be fun to have him across the hall. There are boxes all over the room and Catalina asks Tony where he will sleep. He jumps on the bed on top of everything and tells her that it is quite comfortable. Catalina lies down beside him and agrees the bed is comfortable. Just then, Marah and Sam walk in. Catalina offers to get some lemonade and Sam goes with her. Marah asks Tony if he is going to the Bauer barbecue. He is bringing Catalina and she is bringing Sam. They are bound to run into one another. She tells him she doesn't want him to be uncomfortable and she is glad they cleared the air.

She asks where Tony is and Danny tells her that he gave him the night off so he could move. Sam talks to Danny and learns that Tony is moving into the boarding house.
Marah doesn't know if there idea will work. She wonders how can she remind Tony how much fun she is if he isn't paying attention. She should have realized Catalina would jump right in. Sam says maybe they should call off their deal and he will take her home. He wants to spend time with her but she is not there. He tells her that if she is only interested in making Tony jealous, Sam is not her guy. Maybe he should have gone backpacking around Europe. Marah says she is counting on him. Sam tells Marah to go over to Tony's and watch him if she wants but it is a turnoff. The key is to have self-confidence; it's sexy. Marah tells Sam that she can't keep asking Danny where Tony is or think about Tony when he is having dinner with her. Marah asks Sam to take her to the boarding house.

She says they are not permanent, at least the ones to her body. Beth says she is the only one who can corroborate what he did to Cassie and she wonders if he is there to silence her. Edmund asks if she thinks he is capable of that and she says yes. Edmund says Cassie is alive. When he was carrying her out of the tower, she was sedated, not dead. Beth says he locked Cassie in a hellhole for weeks and she could have died. Edmund tells her that he only locked Beth in the tower so he could go on with the funeral. Beth tells Edmund he could have told her the truth from the beginning. Edmund says he tried to tell her when he was in the hospital but he was afraid. Beth says he was only afraid for himself and he can't justify what he did. He says Beth doesn't understand. Beth says he locked Cassie up as bait and wanted to teach Richard a lesson. Edmund says it wasn't his fault. Beth says it is never Edmund's fault. Edmund says he crawled out of his sick bed and brought Cassie food, water and medicine. When he told Cassie that Richard had died, he gave her a sedative and then risked everything when he thought he had given her too much. Both Cassie and Richard are alive and everything can be alright. Edmund tells Beth he is still the prince and she is still his princess even though he has made mistakes. Beth says he locked her up and lied to her; that isn't love. Edmund says she is the only one he can trust. Beth says she felt fear when he locked her up and wonders if that is the way Cassie felt. Edmund says if she can't forgive him, the rest means nothing. Edmund sits next to her and says if he thought they would never be together again, never make love all night and share their dreams, nothing is worth it. He tells her that SC needs them and they need each other. He asks her to come away with him now to heal. Edmund tells Beth they belong together; she is his life.

Edmund starts to get frantic and then calms, realizing he is frightening her. Edmund says she will realize he did this for SC and for them. Beth says he can't make her responsible for the things he has done. The man she loved and married didn't exist and everyone tried to warn her. She tells him that she doesn't love him and if he ever loved her he should let her go. Edmund says he does love her, more than he thought possible. He agrees to leave and suggests she turn him in to Richard, if that is what it will take to prove he loves her. He tells her to call him in there and get it over with.

Beth says she doesn't remember anything about that. They remind her how he kidnapped Cassie and then locked her up as well. Beth tells them that she doesn't remember that. Phillip tries to tell her that she told him about Edmund and Cassie just the night before. Beth tells them that she thought Cassie was dead and everything was such a jumble she just needs to forget. Phillip tells Beth not to protect Edmund especially after everything he has done. He tells her she should know by now who she is dealing with. Beth tells Phillip and Edmund that she probably knows Edmund better than either of them. She goes on to tell them that she made a huge mistake and it ended with Edmund breaking her heart. She hurts but she is not going to help them exact revenge on Edmund. She is upset that they want her to remember things that she just can't; things she has to forget.

In the kitchen, Phillip tells Harley that she is pregnant and that everything is beginning to make sense. She asks when she was planning on telling him. Harley says she has been thinking about it but hid it intentionally from him because she knew how he would react. Phillip is angry and asks her if she thought she could keep this a secret for good. Phillip doesn't believe that she and Rick were keeping this from him. Harley tells him there is more. She goes on to talk about Rick but Phillip interrupts her and asks if Frank also knows. He thinks everyone in town knows but him. They argue and she tells him that they are divorced and she will be the one dealing with this pregnancy. Phillip tells her that he is going to help even if she doesn't like it. She is going to have a full time housekeeper and money and she is going to quit her job. Harley tells him that she doesn't want any of that and that he is trying to control her. He says she should have told him from the beginning. She says she would have had to go to SC to tell him. Phillip tells Harley not to blame this on him. She had the chance to tell him the truth. He was not on a pleasure cruise to rescue his children. He would have done the same thing for her and Zach. Harley says she wouldn't have got in that position. Beth keeps making the same mistakes and not learning from them. Phillip tells her she is right, Beth is stupid sometimes but that doesn't have anything to do with her pregnancy. Harley tells him that she doesn't want to talk about it and she will make decisions about the baby on her own. Phillip tells her that she will not do it alone.

Cassie and Richard kiss and talk about how lucky they are to be together again. Richard tells her to get used to it. Cassie asks Richard what he is thinking. He thinks he wants to be alone with her. She says the Bauer's' won't mind and they join hands to leave. Olivia notices Richard and Cassie leaving and Josh tells her that they probably want to be alone. She insists that she has to know what is in their minds about the harbor deal right away. She goes over to them and Josh tells Richard and Cassie that he is glad they are both okay. Richard looks at Olivia and tells her that Edmund did have Cassie prisoner. Olivia says she is a businesswoman, not a co-conspirator.

Richard says only a natural catastrophe can stop this project now. Olivia is happy and Richard and Cassie leave.
Danny tells Tony that he would rather he not come to his trial Monday. He doesn't want him going after Aitoro and getting thrown in jail. He would like it if he would stay back and manage Infierno until the trial is over. Tony agrees but says he still hates Gus.
Blake tells Ross she can't believe Danny is lighting fireworks tonight and will be on trial for murder in the morning. She feels somehow responsible since she wrote about Miguel's death and how Carmen was responsible for it. Ross tells her not to blame herself and just let him handle the case.
Billy and Holly arrive at the barbecue. Billy finds some chili and teases Buzz about bringing it every year. He picks up some hot jalapenos and eats some. Billy and Buzz take turns eating jalapenos to impress Holly. She thinks they are crazy and acting immature. She thinks they will next try fire walking. Holly leaves and Ross takes Buzz with him into the house. Billy drinks a can of soda and goes over to the chili. He takes a bowl and puts jalapenos in it as well as lots of Tabasco sauce. He sits it down and looks for Buzz. When he goes back to the bowl, he notices he cannot tell the difference in it and the five other bowls lying there, so he leaves it.
Blake goes over to Danny and apologizes to him. He doesn't understand. She tells him that she feels responsible for his trouble since she dug up so much writing her book. He tells her that she fictionalizes her book and he heard that it was pretty good. She is surprised he hasn't read it but he tells her that he didn't want any bad memories coming back so he hasn't read it. Blake mentions Gus and how he had been working on the Santos family for four years. Danny asks how she knew that and she told him that Gus crashed her book signing party. Danny tells her as long as she isn't buddy-buddy with Gus, they are fine because any friend of Gus is not a friend of his. She assures him they aren't friends. Just then, Gus shows up and wraps his arms around Blake and asks how his favorite writer is. She tells him not to grope her and walks away. Danny asks Gus what he wants. Gus says he came to see Harley. Danny says Harley is not here. Tony gets angry and is ready to jump Gus but Frank finally pulls Gus aside and tells him to take some food to go. Gus goes over and grabs the bowl of chili that Billy had doctored up and takes a big spoonful. He gasps and runs out to get some water. Billy sees him and laughs.
Richard and Cassie:
Richard is sitting on a bed, taking off his watch. Cassie comes out in her nightgown and he tells her not to move; she looks so beautiful. He tells her how he sat in this bed so many nights praying she would walk through the door. She says sometimes prayers are answered. They kiss and Richard tells her he missed her so much. She tells him she missed him more. Richard says, "Let's find out." He begins undressing her and they kiss again. Cassie tells Richard she knew he would come back for her and that is what kept her going. It also made her more afraid because Edmund knew he would be back as well and he was using her as bait. Richard says he was aware of that but he had to come back for her. Richard says he would risk everything for her. She takes off his shirt and kisses down his chest. They undress and begin making love.
Later, Richard and Cassie are lying together talking about how long it has been since they were together. Cassie says they won't wait that long again. He tells her they won't be apart from now on. Cassie asks for him to promise her and they start kissing again.
At the Spaulding's:
Lillian is taking care of Beth and giving her medicine for the pain. She tells Beth she wishes she could give her something to erase her pain. Beth says she would have to erase her memory and that won't happen. Beth says she thought she was free to be an equal partner to the man she loved, but she is not free of anything, least of all the past. Beth says Edmund was Edmund from the very start and it was her choice to believe in him. Lillian tells her that she was the one who brought her up in a house with a manipulative man so it was her fault. Some scars just don't heal. Beth wonders whether she should just stay there to be safe. Lillian tells her that Edmund was smooth and charming and Beth couldn't see past his courtliness. Beth says she wanted to believe him. Lillian tells her to go to bed. Beth says she will see what she can do to get over it. Lillian leaves and Beth is lying in bed, crying while remembering times with Edmund.
Lillian comes in to check on Beth and Beth tells her that she loved Edmund. The phone rings and Lillian answers. No one talks and she asks if it is Edmund. The person hangs up and Lillian tells Beth it was a wrong number.
At Company:
Harley comes in and bumps around in the dark. Rick has followed her and knocks on the window. She tells him she just needed a break from everything and a closed Company seemed the perfect hideout. Rick tells her that he knows things got nasty with Phillip at the BBQ and it is sure to get worse. Harley says it is much worse than any nightmare she imagined. Rick asks Harley what happened. Harley says Phillip was a maniac. He would ask a question and when she would start to answer, he would scream at her. Harley thinks she should tell him the rest in a note. Rick wonders what she said. Harley says she told him the baby was her business but he was so arrogant, he just assumed the baby was his. He figured there was no way she could have been with another man. Rick says Phillip would never think it possible of him as well. He wonders if she didn't tell Phillip everything because once he knows, everyone will know the truth. Rick believes she would never tell anyone if it were up to her. Harley tells him that at least Phillip knows she is pregnant, she can tell him in sessions. Rick thinks it is best just to get it over with and not let Phillip think he is going to have another child. He wonders when she wants to tell Phillip the rest since there is no perfect time. Rick tells her he needs to do this but Harley wants more time. Rick tells her that he wants to be the one to tell Phillip and he wants to tell him tonight. Harley asks how he plans on telling Phillip. Rick thinks that he will just tell him and Phillip will hate him but he owes it to Phillip to tell him.
