She is sure Tabitha's doll was coming on to her. She pinches Timmy and he screams. Another passenger explains to the attendant that Tabitha's doll is an expensive animatronics doll. The attendant apologizes to Timmy the doll and asks him if she can get him anything. He tells her he would like a martimmy. Tabitha tells Timmy to stop drawing attention to them.

He pulls his flask from his coat pocket and enjoys a martimmy. Tabitha cannot relax. She is worried about what will happen when her book comes out.

Grace informs Ivy of how Sam always dreamed of having a second son. Ivy tells Pilar Sam all ready does have a second son - Ethan! Ivy watches as Sam and Grace cuddle.

She is too good for this world. Sheridan tells Luis she had no friends growing up. Her father would not allow her to play with any of the local children. The only thing she had left after her mother died to keep her company was her doll. One day she got a bit of dirt on it and Alistair ordered one of the servant's to throw it away.
