Gigi is surprised by Adriana's question, and tells her that Shane is a product of a previous relationship with someone other than Rex. Adriana continues to express her disbelief, and asks Gigi specific questions concerning the time period Shane was conceived. When Adriana states that Rex never mentioned Shane, Gigi informs her that Rex has no knowledge that Shane exists, and expresses her concern for that information to remain private. Doubtful that Gigi is being truthful, Adriana questions why Gigi came to Llanview and is requesting to keep Shane a secret from Rex. Gigi explains she came to town in order to help Marcie's case, and says Shane could be in danger if anyone knew of their whereabouts. When Gigi suggests Adriana should be making wedding plans instead of inquiring about her life, Adriana tells Gigi she and Rex don't keep secrets. In a smug voice, Adriana asks Gigi if she has a problem with her engagement to Rex. Gigi flatly denies any concern about Rex's life, and suggests Adriana forget about her and Shane. After Adriana leaves, Gigi breathes a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Jared begins to blame Charlie for telling Dorian his secret, but Dorian informs him that she learned of the information directly from Jared himself. Despite learning that Charlie kept his secret, Jared continues to criticize his father. Jared questions whether Dorian has developed feelings for Charlie and offers her money for her silence. Insulted by Jared's offer, Dorian informs Jared of her wealth and tells him Charlie is a good man who deserves a second chance with his son.

At the penthouse, Todd tells Ramsey he will allow him to stay there until they figure out a way to handle the situation concerning John and Gigi. Both men discuss what they have at stake; Ramsey's concern is his career, while Todd considers prison time. Todd tells Ramsey of John's promise to keep Gigi silent, if he convinces the DA's office to be lenient with Marcie. Ramsey is skeptical of John's ability to prevent Gigi from revealing the kidnapping to the authorities. Ramsey tells Todd that Gigi will want revenge for what they did to her and Shane. He further states that Todd will certainly end up in Statesville if he continues to believe John's false promises. Meanwhile, John is approaching Todd's door. Todd allows John to enter, and John gives Todd an ultimatum. As Ramsey looks on, unnoticed by John, John asks Todd if he is ready to help Marcie or go to prison for what he and Ramsey did to Gigi. Todd questions whether John will also grant Ramsey a pass. Todd tells John that he realizes John still blames Ramsey for Marty's death. Todd expresses concern that John's desire to hold Ramsey accountable may result in Todd's own demise. John suggests Todd worry about himself, not Ramsey. John tells Todd he will deal with Ramsey in his own way, and promises Todd will not receive any repercussions for his part in Gigi's kidnapping, provided he help Marcie. Ramsey continues to listen to the conversation.
Frustrated with Todd's uncooperative attitude, John demands that Todd give him an answer by the next day, or John will notify Bo of Todd's crime. After John leaves, Ramsey comes out of hiding. When Ramsey tells Todd to ignore John's threats, Todd states he has no other choice but to cooperate with John. Ramsey says the authorities cannot send Todd to prison if there is no one to testify against him. Horrified to discover Ramsey would consider killing Gigi and her son, Todd tells Ramsey he is insane. Walking away, Todd says he refuses to hurt Gigi and Shane. He offers Ramsey the penthouse for the night, and tells him they will talk in the morning. Ramsey suggests Todd reconsider the idea.

In her dream, Adriana admires her new engagement ring, only to have Dorian appear out of nowhere to criticize it and everything about Rex, including the fact that he deserted Gigi and her son. Rex dreams about Charlie being his dad. He decides to tell Adriana of the possibility and she thinks that Charlie must know, since he saved Rex's life. Rex isn't sure but explains that Roxy doesn't want anyone to know and he himself is not sure that it's true. They come up with various reasons as to why Roxy wants it secret. Rex promises to never have any secrets from Adriana. She thinks Rex should take a chance and speak to Charlie because the man might be happy about it.
The Cramers discuss the wedding though Blair figures that Adriana and Rex will probably spend their honeymoon in prison. She wants no part of planning her cousin's wedding. Dorian assures her that her daughter will not go to prison. Langston and Cole get together again to discuss Starr's surprise party before they head out to their group therapy meeting. Their plan is to ask Dorian for help, but she seems too stressed out over Charlie moving in with Viki and the discussion of Adriana's wedding. Addie, for one, is happy for Viki, and accuses Dorian of being a Viki wannabe. She states that in the past, Dorian took Viki's name, took a similar career path, and named her house just like Viki did, among other things. She thinks that Viki should have her happiness and Dorian needs to find her own. Blair overhears Cole and Langston whispering and demands to know if they're sneaking around. They disclose the reason and she offers to help them with the party and to keep their secret.
At the diner, Starr spots Markko when she's there to pick up some goodies for breakfast. She wonders if he hasn't noticed Langston and Cole hanging out too much together and lying about it. He claims he hasn't noticed anything different and is quick to make it known that he trusts them. He thinks they understand and share the death of their parents with each other. Nash is happy to spot Jared and after they trade insults, he makes it clear that he wants their war to end immediately. He reminds Jared that his war is with Tess, not Jess, and all of it is affecting the entire family. Jared seems not to care, citing the fact that his two years in prison don't equal Jess's two nights in St. Ann's. When Nat is specifically named as one of the suffering family members, though, Jared is quick to agree to the cease-fire. He informs Nash that in order to make things even, he will throw in one percent of his vineyard stock.
When Nat gets to St. Ann's to take Jess home, she hears that her sister has been hanging around with Allison Perkins. She thinks that Jess has really lost it, even if it's true that Allison really does have secrets.

She wants the true story on Dorian and why he was staying with her. She asks why he's in Llanviddew and if he's located his son. Charlie explains that he met Dorian in Paris, Texas, and learned of another son living in Llanview only the day before. He doesn't want to lose Viki, though. She offers to help him and wants to meet his son, but is shocked to learn that it's Rex. She tells him that Rex is practically a member of her own family. He recounts the story that Roxy invented. She wonders if Charlie remembers seeing Nat when she was small, but he points out that he was only in Roxy's home the one time. Viki reveals that Rex is a private eye and she almost hired him to help her find Charlie. In regards to his other son, Charlie insists that he's not in Llanview and there's no chance of a relationship with him. He's not proud of his one night with Roxy, but thinks he should talk to Rex.

Blair opens the door at La Boulaie. Todd and Sam are on the other side. They've brought a bouquet of flowers to say thank you for taking such good care of Sam. Blair puts the flowers in water and apologizes that the transition with Sam has been rough. She mentions that it hasn't helped that Todd has been distracted. He says he's been distracted by his dealings with Lee. He lies and tells Blair that Lee's been paid and sent packing.
Lee, in Todd's penthouse, unpacks a rifle with a nasty-looking scope.
Todd opens the door at La Boulaie. Nora and John are on the other side. Nora says that John's been telling interesting stories about Todd. They enter and Nora tells Todd that without his testimony, she doesn't have much of a case. Blair comes downstairs. She is shocked to hear from Nora and John that Todd is planning to ask the judge for leniency on Marcie's behalf. John brings up Gigi, which confuses Nora and annoys Todd.
Lee is still playing with the rifle when there's a knock at the door. It's Markko delivering food from the diner. He recognizes a photo of Starr with Todd.
Blair tells Todd that she would be proud if he went easy on Marcie, because Blair feels sorry for her. John asks what Todd plans to do. Todd says it's a big decision and stalls for more time. Nora, frustrated by Todd's refusal to answer, glares at John, who tells her he'll get it straightened out. "Do that," snaps Nora, "and don't ever drag me back to this house again!" Nora leaves. John tells Todd that he plans to bring Gigi and Shane to the police station the next day and have them tell how Todd and Lee kidnapped them. John says if Marcie goes down, Todd will go down with her. Todd gets a phone call, apparently about the newspaper. Blair comes downstairs with Sam. John is all smiles to see the little boy. Todd leaves, and Blair wants to know why.
Markko, at Todd's penthouse, asks Lee if this is Todd's place. Lee pays him rudely and slams the door in his face. Todd arrives to find Markko at his front door, looking at a map. Markko introduces himself as Starr's friend and Langston's boyfriend. Todd tells him to get lost and goes inside. Todd tells Lee that Nora and John just double-teamed him, wanting to know if he'd go easy on Marcie. If he doesn't cooperate, Gigi is going to talk. Lee tells him not to worry. He reaches for the rifle and tells Todd that with his rifle, a fellow can "tap a busy waitress from 10 clicks and disappear before you know it".
Blair tells John he shouldn't put much hope in Todd supporting Marcie. John thinks Todd will see the light by morning. John turns his attention to Sam, telling Blair he's beautiful. He asks Sam if he remembers his Uncle John, and jokes that he's still picking oatmeal out of the carpet. Blair asks if John misses him, and you can tell by his face that he really does. He goes to the door and Blair asks him to tell Marcie that she's going to love Sam as if he were her own. John leaves.
Todd tells Lee that he would like to kill Marcie, but not Gigi or Shane. He goes further and tells Lee he's not going to let Lee kill anyone.
Fish declares the computer system at the Cherryvale PD "a relic from the Mesozoic age." Antonio asks if he can recover the computer's files, telling the Chief that computers self-destruct when Talia gets near them. That's why they were in such a hurry to let her go. The Chief sticks up for Talia. Antonio and Talia plot that Talia will convince the Chief that she is a menace to the equipment, and Antonio will convince Fish that he wants a spot in the Cherryvale PD. Talia asks if Bo will take her back in the Llanview PD, and Antonio assures her he will. Talia next breaks the coffee maker, and tells the Chief that she's broken the thermostat, and that's why it's so hot inside the station. Fish recovers the lost files from the broken computer. Antonio suggests that Cherryvale needs a guy like Fish. Fish says he can't bail on Bo, and that he's too valuable to the LPD. The Chief discovers the phones are broken, and Talia tells how she was in the basement and knocked a mop handle into a panel, causing sparks. Fish packs up and heads for the door, and the Chief asks him where he's going, because everything is still broken. Antonio suggests that Fish stay in Cherryvale and Talia return to Llanview with him. The Chief says if Antonio can make that happen, his speeding record will be expunged. Antonio calls Bo and asks for a favor. Bo says he's lucky he's not getting fired for the stunt he pulled in Cherryvale. Bo says he'll make it happen, then tells Antonio one more thing. Antonio and Talia say their goodbyes to Fish, and thank the Chief for expunging Antonio's record. Talia asks what Bo had to say. Antonio says Bo recited the LPD guidelines about fraternizing to him. It means they can't do it, ever.
Adriana arrives at the diner to meet Vincent and Layla. She shows off her new engagement ring. The girls start to work on Adriana's dress, and Vincent excuses himself. Adriana tells Layla that she thinks Rex has a son with Gigi, one he knows nothing about. Layla asks if Adriana asked Gigi directly about it. Adriana did, and Gigi denied that Shane is Rex's son. Layla says that Gigi might have good reason, like her possible jail time, for keeping Shane a secret. Layla tells Adriana that she has to talk to Rex about it.
Rex asks Charlie if Roxy told him that Rex is his son. Charlie agrees hesitantly. Rex is glad the secret is out, but observes Charlie's hesitation, and wonders if maybe he's not happy about finding out he has a grown son. Rex tells Charlie that he will get lost if Charlie tells him to. Rex says he's gotten on a long time without a father, and he'll be fine, but he looks sad. Charlie says he has it all wrong: he's not denying that he's Rex's father and that he's already told Viki about it. Charlie's still conflicted about the situation, though. Charlie says he's not trying to hurt Rex. Charlie feels bad about getting Rex's hopes up. Rex says "no hopes, no disappointments" but Charlie tells him that's no way to go through life. Rex says that Charlie's starting to sound like a dad. Charlie apologizes and Rex says not to worry, it's not his fault. He tells Charlie that it was nice having a father for 5 minutes.

Dorian asks if Viki "got lucky last night." Viki looks horrified, then shrugs and says, "I know you're frustrated" since Clint walked out on her. Dorian asks if Charlie shared his secret with Viki. Viki confirms that she knows all about Charlie's son. Dorian is surprised he took the risk, especially given the connection with Viki's children. Viki wonders why it should bother her that Rex is Charlie's son. Dorian says she's happy Charlie told Viki, who doubts Dorian's happiness. She asks why, and Dorian says that Rex is going to be her son-in-law, and when Charlie and Viki hear wedding bells, they will all be one big, happy family. Viki asks how Dorian conned Charlie into believing that she is a really nice person with good intentions, but says she should quit while she's ahead. Viki tells Dorian to go home and get a life.

At the diner, the secrets box for the Go Red for Women campaign (to aid women and their fight against heart disease) is filling up. Lindsay wonders if writing down secrets will make peace. Addie and Miles are there for a cooking class and pose for a picture that Lindsay snaps. Just as Addie gives Miles a kiss on the cheek, Roxy walks in. She's curious to know if there's any female in Llanview NOT after Miles. Addie assures her that they are just friends, having a similar background of being institutionalized. She's too old for him, she adds. The three women decide to add their secrets and donations to the box, but at the last minute Lindsay thinks it better that the "secrets stay hidden."

Rex and Adriana have a heated discussion about the fact that Rex could be the father of Gigi's son Shane. He can't believe that she even has a son or that she hid that fact from him. He admits that "Shane" was their favorite movie when they dated and according to Adriana, the boy resembles him a great deal. Rex recalls how they both left town though Adriana points out that he left first, possibly leaving Gigi pregnant and alone, which in turn forced her to leave. Gigi was always honest and fair and he would have stood by her if he had known, he insists. He still strongly refuses to believe that Shane is his and is sure he would have known about him if he was really the dad. He doesn't know why Gigi would lie, even now. Adriana points out how they are engaged which is why Gigi would have lied now. Furthermore, Rex is going through father issues of his own, they've both had parent problems and Adriana can't believe that he would deny Shane knowing his father. Adriana wants to know where she stands. Rex tells her that even if he is Shane's dad, it changes nothing. She doesn't want these questions hanging over their heads and no matter what the answer, it's all good. He finally agrees to see Gigi.

John heads out to investigate. Rex arrives shortly after. "Adriana told you?" Gigi asks. He and Shane eye each other wordlessly.
At Todd's penthouse, Ramsey does his best to try to convince Todd that Gigi and Shane should be killed. In fact, he wants Todd to be the one to pull the trigger as he's caught so many breaks, he'll be able to get away with it. Todd knows that the cops would look for them if the Morascos are found dead. Ramsey aims the gun at Todd and then out the window, demonstrating how easy it would be to shoot someone clear across town and no one would be the wiser. He talks about changing targets. Todd asks if his family is being threatened. He just wants to point out all of the options to Todd, Ramsey explains. Todd is sure his interests will be protected if he doesn't go against Marcie and nothing will happen to his family. "You just keep thinking that way and see what happens," Ramsey says. He adds that if Todd doesn't do it, he will. Todd in turn threatens Ramsey. He tells him that he will kill him with his bare hands if he even goes near his family. Todd leaves and misses John by a split second. The door to the penthouse is open and John walks in. Ramsey, who is standing behind the door, knocks him cold with the butt of the gun.

Todd has a quick flashback of Ramsey threatening his family. Todd enters the bedroom and questions Jack about the dream. Jack tells his father the dream was about Todd giving him away. When Todd and Blair attempt to reassure Jack that Todd loves him and would never do such a thing, his parents are stunned when he tells them Todd has already done it. Jack reveals that the kids at school told him that his father gave him away as a baby. Although Blair protests, Todd feels Jack is old enough to know the truth and tells his son what took place many years ago.

At John's apartment, Rex stands at the door, staring at Shane. As Shane looks on, Rex asks Gigi if Shane is his son. Gigi begs Rex to leave, but he refuses. Shane remembers seeing Rex in Texas, and asks him if he knows his mother and father. When Shane reveals his father is dead and was a Navy Seal, Rex's suspicions are raised. Meanwhile, Ramsey has arrived at the empty office building in Angel Square, across from John's hotel room. Ramsey positions himself where he has a clear shot of John's apartment and the roof. Upon agreeing to speak with Rex on the roof, Gigi tells Shane to lock the door and open it for no one. When Gigi and Rex leave, Shane plays John's slot machine in a location of the apartment where Ramsey has a clear view of him. On the roof, Rex attempts to convince Gigi to tell him the truth regarding Shane's paternity. While continuing to deny that Rex is Shane's father, Gigi reveals she was in love with Rex and he was her first. When Rex reminds her that she once told him she had other lovers before him, Gigi becomes enraged and tells Rex he would be lucky to have a son like Shane. Rex asks Gigi, since she lied about having other lovers, if she is lying about Shane being his son. As Shane plays the slot machine and Rex and Gigi argue on the roof, Ramsey moves his sights back and forth, targeting both mother and son. Each time Ramsey attempts to fire, a sudden movement by Shane and Gigi interrupts him. Ramsey continues to wait patiently for the opportunity to kill Shane and Gigi.
Meanwhile, John regains consciousness and attempts to call Gigi at the apartment to warn her, but his vision is blurred. When John is finally able to dial, his call goes unanswered because Gigi has left her phone in the apartment and Shane is unable to hear because he is wearing headphones. Finally, Shane hears the phone, but John hangs up. Frightened, Shane hides in the closet, out of Ramsey's line of fire. John arrives at the apartment and finds Shane in the closet. Shane tells John he hid because there was no one on the phone when he answered. Shane says this usually means something bad is going to happen. When John questions where Gigi has gone, Shane tells him that Gigi is on the rooftop with a man.
