When Bo entered his office, he found Nora there with Melanie's engagement ring on her finger. Embarrassed, Nora fumbled to explain that she came to see him and accidentally knocked the ring box off the desk looking for a pen to leave a message and the ring fell out and it was so nice that she tried it on and now she can't get it off. With the help of a little Chapstick, Bo manages to slide the ring off of Nora's finger. With that problem solved, Nora explains that Asa told her that Bo is going to ask Melanie to marry him and she came to talk to him about it, to confront her feelings about it. Bo explains that he did ask Lanie to marry him, but she turned him down. Nora is shocked, but realizes she isn't as hurt by the idea of him getting remarried as she thought she would be. Maybe I am getting over my feelings for you, she tells Bo. They decide they love each other as friends, and as they hug they declare that they will always be there for each other.
Sam stopped by to see Will, but he wasn't home. Jessica told him about the money that Asa gave to Lindsay for Will, which Lindsay spent on the gallery. Jessica has the feeling that something just isn't right, especially after she saw Lindsay and Colin talking so intently on New Year's Eve. Sam tells her she's not imagining things, he thinks something's going on, too. He has no way to prove it right now, but he's certain that the truth about what Lindsay has done will come out eventually and he wants to be there when it does.
Will stopped by Colin's house and informed him that B&B United is the owner of a company that Colin has invested heavily in. Leave Lindsay alone, or I'll be sure the company fails and takes your investment along with it, Will warns. Will returned home to Jessica, pleased with his new-found power, and she picked up the camera and started filming him, jokingly saying she was going to do a documentary of his life. When she plugged the camera into the TV to show him what he looked like on film, she got more than she expected. It was the tape of Jessica and Will making love they'd accidentally made. Let's make a sequel, Will said while giving Jessica a kiss.
Lindsay snuck into Melanie's office at the hospital and started looking through her personal files. When Melanie walked in and caught her, Lindsay admitted she was trying to learn what the secret is that Melanie is hiding from her. Lindsay is determined to find out the truth.

She doesn't have to tell him anything, Lindsay informs him, it's between her and Will. After Lindsay leaves, Sam asks Melanie why she refused to marry Bo, but Melanie isn't talking either. She says she has to go check on a patient and leaves. When she returns to her office, she finds Nora there waiting for her.
Colin is in his house, looking at his shrine to Nora. Along with the framed lock of her hair and a picture of her, he also has old newspaper clippings about her wedding to Bo and about her winning the 'Woman of the Year' Award. He's interrupted when Lindsay arrives demanding to know what Melanie's secret is. Colin informs her of Will's threat to ruin his investment and tells her that if she wants to know the secret, it's going to cost her.
Sophia went to see Kelly and was worried when she found there was no guard outside the door. Kelly explained that her police protection had been cancelled. Sophia doesn't believe it and calls the station to check with Bo. She gets Roseanne on the phone, who absolutely refuses to get in trouble again by interrupting Bo, who's in his office talking to Nora. Instead, she reads the memo from the "mayor" to Sophia over the phone. Sophia still thinks something isn't right, but can't put her finger on it. She tries to convince Kelly not to go meet Joey by "their tree" as the email says. She talked to Joey earlier and he insists he hasn't sent any notes or flowers. But he lied about not stalling the divorce, Kelly reminds her, how do they know he's not lying now? Kelly leaves by herself to meet Joey by the tree and end this once and for all. Sophia stays behind and ponders the email message. She notices the time code says the message was sent at 5:56PM, but Joey was with her at the station then and couldn't possibly have sent the message. The lightbulb *finally* goes on and she realizes that the hitman must be setting Kelly up. She calls the station for back-up, but gets Roseanne again. She asks Roseanne to have Antonio meet her at Llantano Mountain, but when Roseanne gets off the phone it's obvious she thinks Sophia is just playing another trick to get close to Antonio and has no intention of telling him about Sophia's call. In the meantime, Kelly reaches the tree in the woods as the hitman watches her from his hiding place nearby.

Lindsay is at Colin's house arguing that she has a right to know what Lanie's secret is, but that she is not going to pay for it. Colin says that in that case, she isn't going to find out and tries to push her out the door, but the doorbell rings. Not wanting anyone to see her, Lindsay runs upstairs to hide. Bo is at the door and when he comes in he goes up the stairs and tells Lindsay he heard her voice and that she doesn't have to hide. Lindsay tells Bo that she was there because Colin and Will had an altercation and she wanted to make sure that it didn't happen again. Of course, Bo does not believe her and tells her that the offer he made her about coming clean is still good. Lindsay refuses. Bo asks her again if Colin was blackmailing her for helping kidnap Nora. Bo tells Lindsay that blackmail is not part of Colin's immunity and that if he is blackmailing her for helping to kidnap Nora, he can press charges. Bo tells Colin that he knows Lindsay didn't go there to talk about the altercation with Will, to which Colin replies that Bo is right, Lindsay came there to ask him what Lanie's secret was and why she had been hiding it from Lindsay for years.

Nora assures Lanie that there is no reason for her to refuse Bo's proposal. Lanie gets tears in her eyes and Nora asks what is wrong, to which Lanie replies nothing is wrong, she is just touched.

Lanie is visibly upset and Nora asks who was on the phone. Lanie tells Nora that she has got to stay away from Colin. Nora tells Lanie that she is convinced that Lindsay is behind her kidnapping and she is trying to get proof from Colin.
Charlie tells Kelly and Sophia that Joey sent him there to tell Kelly that he got delayed and that he would be there soon. Sophia gives Charlie a strange look, because she knows that Joey did not send the email. Sophia suggests that since it is late, dark and very cold that they find someplace else for Joey to meet Kelly. Charlie says Joey is probably already on his way and that it is very important that Joey talk to Kelly. Charlie suggests that he and Sophia clear out to give Kelly and Joey privacy. Sophia hesitantly agrees and looks Kelly in the eyes and wants to tell her something, but Charlie is watching.
Kevin tells Joey he believes him, but if Joey didn't send all the flowers, notes and emails, then who did? Suddenly Kevin asks Joey where the tree is and who else knows about it. Joey tells him the tree is on Llantano Mountain and that no one else knows about it. Kevin says he would guarantee that "Mr. Gray" knows about it and they rush out of the house to go up to the mountain.
Sophia tells Kelly she is too upset to talk to Joey because of "that guy" they were talking about back at the house. Sophia explains that the "guy" was a friend of Kelly's from school and they need to go back and see if they can help him.

She is always afraid she'll say something to upset Sophia. Antonio suggests that Roseanne move in with him.
Kevin and Joey are on their way to Llantano Mountain. Kelly says she can't believe Charlie is the hit man because the man she saw was old with gray hair. Suddenly, Sophia shoves Charlie's gun arm up and throws him to the ground.
