judge : kendall hart has been charged and tried for the murder of michael cambias . has the jury reached a verdict ? foreman : we have , your honor . judge : will the defendant please stand . on the felony count of murder in the first degree , the jury finds you guilty as charged . [ gallery reacts ] judge : as to your sentence , the jury has considered whether any aggravating factors exist that overrule any mitigating arguments in your defense . based on this consideration , the jury recommends the following sentence -- the defendant , kendall hart , will be put to death by lethal injection . [ gallery reacts ] judge : may god have mercy on your soul . court is adjourned . maria chambers : the murder trial of kendall hart is set to resume within the hour . ms. hart is still due on the witness stand after a brief hiatus brought on by the shocking reveal that the defendant has been faking her pregnancy . strong doubt has also been cast on her marriage to michael cambias . in an interesting sidebar , after a bout with angina last week , alan singer will be back in the prosecutor 's seat . the events of last week proved a stunning setback for the defense . after her perjury on the stand , one can only wonder how kendall hart can begin to repair the damage done to her credibility in the eyes of the jury .

[ scene_break ] zach : i get it . it 's got to be easier blaming me , i mean , anyone but yourself . ryan : you are truly delusional . you drove greenlee off the road . you and your lies . zach : i was behind the wheel , but i 've got a feeling that greenlee was done for the moment she agreed to marry you . that 's what happens when you fall for ryan lavery . ryan : oh , and everybody 's always safe with zach slater , is that right ? like the night of the tornado ? when you left your wife alone , and she ended up in a coma ? is that what you call protecting your family ? i 'm just curious . zach : my wife is still alive . ryan : you son of -- this is perfect . here 's your girlfriend . she could n't stay away , could she ? reese : on this night , zach , i think we should -- how could you do it ? ryan : excuse me ? reese : how could you tell bianca what you saw ? ryan : are you serious right now ? reese : she left me , ryan . ryan : and that 's my fault ? reese : we were in love . we were happy , and you -- ryan : you were cheating on her with zach . reese : no , i was not -- it was one kiss . ryan : whatever happened , it was the night before you got married , reese . reese : god , are you self - righteous ! what the hell -- from what i have heard , you and greenlee were rolling around while you were still married to somebody else . ryan : do n't compare our situation to yours . reese : oh , i am not comparing it , but you are -- ryan : what are you trying to tell me ? are you in love with zach ? is that what you 're saying ? reese : no , no , i 'm not , actually . that 's the difference . i 'm in love with bianca . zach was a mistake . ryan : a mistake that cost greenlee her life . reese : that is not fair . greenlee is gone because of -- bianca : stop it . leave her alone .

[ scene_break ] bianca : kendall , she 's smart not to take you back . forgive and forget -- that 's what i did with reese time and time and time again . i accepted her apologies , i excused her lies . in my heart i knew that something was n't right , but i just refused to believe it was true . i could n't accept that i could be so wrong about the people i loved . so , i came up with all kinds of explanations and rationalizations and in the end it did n't matter at all . everything fell apart anyway , in my life and in yours . zach : people that love each other , they work things out . kendall and i always have . bianca : you kissed reese . you probably had sex with her . you really think kendall 's just going to be able to get over that ? zach : no , i did n't have sex with her , but i guess it does n't matter what i say . bianca : you betrayed me . the trust is gone . it 's over . zach : it 's your decision to make . bianca : do you think it 's a mistake ? well , it ca n't be any worse than the other decisions i 've made this year . i chose you to be the father of my child -- that was the worst mistake of my life . [ scene_break ] david : your father 's going to be fine , jake , if he gets his rest . you might want to convince him to stay in bed for a few days . jake : he 's going to miss the heart health benefit , the campbell 's thing -- david : right , right . come on , i 'm running an event to promote cardiac health . the last thing i need is your father dropping dead at the event . so , he 'll swallow his pride , and he 'll stay home . and we 'll raise a boatload of cash for a very worthy cause . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have places to be .

[ scene_break ] bianca : i wish i could take it all back -- the night in marseille , the secrets that we kept from kendall , the whole ridiculous , insane plan . zach : you have regrets . you regret that gabrielle is here ? bianca : i love that little girl . all i care about is my children . it 's my job to make sure that they are happy and safe , and that 's why i 'm going to go back to france without reese . she 's not going to be allowed to see them , and neither are you . it 's the way it should be . it 's the way it would have been if we had gone to a sperm bank instead of being so incredibly selfish and stupid . and i know you ca n't fight me about it , because you know what that would do to kendall . she would see how much you care about gabrielle and how you ca n't let her go , and she would never forgive either one of us , and i know you ca n't live with that . would you say something ? zach : i always saw the best parts of erica in you . always the best -- never insecurities , arrogance , and the selfishness -- until now . you 've turned into your mother . it makes me very sad . oh , you know , that 's not right , it does n't make me sad . it makes me sick . bianca : go to hell .

[ scene_break ] bianca : you went to a judge , and you got a court order to keep me in the country ? reese : if you want to put an ocean between me and my daughter and keep me away from her for god knows how long -- bianca : because you cheated on me . you ruined everything that we ever had . reese : this is the only way that i knew how to get you to stay . unless you want to give me another chance . we can fix this . the moment i met you i knew that we belonged together -- you , me , our kids . it has n't changed . we can fix this , if you believe in us . i still love you . bianca : i do n't love you anymore . [ scene_break ] kendall : my husband did n't murder anyone . jesse : zach could n't see greenlee coming around that curve , ryan . you told the sheriff the same story , right ? kendall : yes , yes . it was dark , and the road was winding , and zach had drifted into the wrong lane . jesse : he stayed at the scene . he helped with the search , he cooperated with the police . ryan : great , great , big hero . greenlee is still dead , ok ? zach is responsible , and i want to press charges . kendall : why ? ryan , that would only make everything worse . ryan : kendall , if zach had n't have been messing around with another woman , greenlee would still be alive . do you understand that ? kendall : stop it , stop , stop . ryan : he is the reason that she was on the road . he 's the reason the car was on the wrong side , because you were arguing about reese . jesse : ryan -- ryan : zach and reese are behind everything here , guys . why do n't you see that ? jesse : ryan , cheating on your husband or your wife , unfortunately that is not a crime . ryan : get out . jesse : ryan , if you 're thinking about taking the law into your own hands -- ryan : get out . jesse : ryan . ryan : now , jesse . get out , right now . kendall : ryan -- ryan : kendall , i love you . you know that . we both love greenlee . but if you are with zach on this , i need you to leave , too . now . jesse : you seem a little nervous , kendall . is there anything else you want to tell me -- what happened in that car ?

[ scene_break ] scott : annie ? an -- annie ? annie , what 's going on , huh ? what -- annie , what are you doing with a tire iron ? annie : [ drops the tire iron ] i do n't know . i was -- i was upset , so i just came out for some fresh air . and it was just sitting there on the table . adam : who would leave a tire iron out here on the table ? annie : i know who would . greenlee . she 's messing with my head . a tire iron ? to provoke me about how i killed my brother ? adam : honey , i do n't think greenlee could have done this . how could she get on the property without setting off the alarms or alerting the guards ? annie : the guards ? the guards are useless . it did n't get here by itself , adam . [ breathing heavily ] adam : now , listen , come on . we 're going to go inside . we 're gon na figure this out and get warmed up , ok ? scott : what the hell were you thinking ? [ scene_break ] angie : this job , it 's so hard , especially to do it properly and especially when you know how the position has been abused . i mean , you just want to be able to let everyone know that it can still be done the right way . jesse : yeah . angie : and so when you slip up , it 's like you hear this little voice in your head , saying , `` you just do n't have what it takes . `` jesse : are you kidding me ? you have more of what it takes than anybody i know . angie : yeah . but you know where i 'm coming from . i mean , when they made you police chief , you struggled . you made mistakes . i mean , how did you feel ? jesse : like crap . but i kept at it . really , what 's the alternative ? quit , walk off the job ? angie : well , that might be better than being forced to have it taken from you . jesse : hey , what are you -- hayward ? angie : look , it 's no secret that he would love to have his job back . and ever since i maneuvered him out of office , he 's just been biding his time . i mean , you know the man . jesse : i wish you 'd have told me this before . if he looks at you crooked , i will -- angie : no . this is my fight . jesse : this is a fight you wanted to walk away from two seconds ago . you are not afraid of this man . what 's going on ? angie : this is n't about fear ! this is about wanting to do this job at a higher level than him ethically , humanely . there are politics involved that i just did n't see coming and compromises that i -- i just worry i ca n't -- jesse : what ? hold on to your values ? angela , i know you . we all know you . you are one of pine valley 's daughters . you do what is right . so what if you slip up one day ? the next day , you bounce back and you show idiots like hayward how it 's really done . that 's why doc martin believes in you . that 's why i believe in you . that 's why i love you . please , tell me you know that . even in your worst moments , you have got to know that in here . angie : i love you . [ scene_break ] liza : they 'll be back . you know , bailey and stuart , they will eventually -- they 're gon na come back . damon : not according to her . she decided i was not worth the grief anymore . and after being accused of all those robberies , i could n't get her to understand why i had to spend the night in colby 's room . liza : yeah , i did n't get that one either . damon : colby and i are friends , ok ? liza : ok . damon : end of story . the thing is , i thought i had a shot to talk bailey down . but with her parents right there , i just -- and they never liked me anyway , so game over . liza : what is she gon na do there ? i mean , what 's her plan ? damon : she 's already got a job . her parents are gon na baby - sit stuart when she 's not there . liza : good , good . it 's just funny that she did n't call me , you know , after everything that we 've been through . and -- [ clears throat ] i really love that little guy . ohh ! [ scene_break ] greenlee : that 's not a fair comparison . it 's different with ryan . jake : and that 's why you 're marrying david . what , is it anybody but ryan day ? is that -- greenlee : and that 's why you 're here , to be ryan 's wing man ? jake : no , no , no . i 'm not here to tell you that he 's the one . that 's for you to decide . that 's for you to figure out . greenlee : thank you . jake : honey , i love you . i consider you one of my best friends , and i hate to see you hurting . maybe you feel passed over , left out , kicked aside . that 's understandable . but i do n't think you should make this all about that . and if you 're doing that to make it easier than taking the honest path forward , then i think you 're doing yourself a great disservice . but you 're known for that . i mean , it would n't be the first time . look at you . you 're dehydrated . i 'm gon na get a drink for you , get something in your system , ok ? [ exhales ] how long have you been standing there ? you 've been listening to everything we 're saying . ryan : i heard . jake , i was walking in . i was coming in , but i heard her , greenlee , say that i had pushed her to the edge with me trying to get her back . what was i thinking , bringing her here ? jake : i do n't know . maybe trying to get her to see the light . ryan : i have n't done that . only thing i may have accomplished is losing her for good . i thought i was doing the right thing here -- i thought i was -- by bringing her away from hayward , right , so she could just relax a little bit , just relax and think about what she 's doing . but look at her in there . and that 's because of me . i 'm only making things worse here . honestly , i have been screwing up since the day that i thought she died -- i have -- since the day that i went to view her body , and i could n't bring myself just to pull back the sheet and look . if i had have just looked , you know , none of this would have been happening . none of it . i should have questioned , i should have investigated , i should have double - checked the dna to make sure that it was hers . jake : hold on a second . you ca n't be blaming yourself for -- we all believed that , ok ? and , plus , you were more shocked than anybody . ryan : ok , then what am i doing now ? what about here ? what is this ? me getting in her face , what 's this , insisting that we just pick up where we left off , like nothing happened . what am i doing ? jake : listen , she is fatigued . she is stressed out . she 's dehydrated , ok ? and by the way , she did all of this to herself . you did n't do it . and she 's not going to die from it . so just take it easy , ok ? look , the way i see it , ryan , i 've always been a firm believer that you have to fight for something . if you love somebody , you have to fight for it , ok ? that 's what you do . and there 's no user 's manual when you find out that your fiancée is back from the dead . you 're doing the best you can , and not for nothing . so is she . ryan : well , i just do n't know what to do . i mean , i do n't . i want to do something right . and i do n't know what it is . i do n't know how to help . what are you doing out here -- jake : i asked you to go get something to , you know , drink and eat for her . and you went awol , so i was just -- it 's fine . just go . i 'll give you a minute . ryan : hold on . hold on . wait , wait , wait , wait . [ scene_break ] frankie : ok . the clinic 's out of flu -- oh .

[ frankie chuckles ] [ scene_break ] adam : i have a confession to make . annie : what is it ? adam : when i walked out on that terrace , and i saw you with that tire iron in your hand , i was in no way sure what you were going to do next . annie : i used to dream about it , what i did to richie . adam : yeah . annie : the images were so stark , so terrifying , but eventually the nightmares went away , and i could go to bed without dreading them . adam : i still have dreams about stuart 's death . sleep is no rest to me anymore anyway . annie : i know . i knew it then . you used to jar awake at night . similar things happened to me , but now i feel like i have a normal stable life again . and now this ? somebody is that cruel to try to make me relive the horror of it ? adam : i 'm calling the police . if greenlee did this , there will be evidence . and we can call your doctor at oak haven . annie : no , no , no , no , no . no , i 'm fine . you do n't have to call anybody . i 'm fine . as long as i have you protecting me , then that 's all i need . adam : ok . annie : ok .

[ scene_break ] liza : you know the last time that i actually held him ? tad : what ? liza : oh , tad -- tad : what ? listen , i disagree with you . you know what i mean ? bailey loved you . she worshipped you . she could still come back . liza : no . i had to hear about her decision through damon , not her . you know , that speaks volumes about her intentions . tad : it speaks volumes about his , too . it was pretty cool that he came all the way back here to tell you . liza : it 's so funny 'cause back when we met , we were enemies at first sight . and now he 's the one who 's trying to do good by me ? colby . what am i gon na tell colby ? i think she loved him as much as i did . [ scene_break ] colby : so maybe it did n't go exactly the way i planned . i -- i 'll be smarter next time . scott : yeah , yeah , yeah ! colby : yeah . scott : sure . that 's a great idea . why not ? hey , hey ! why not leave a loaded gun lying around , huh ? one in every room . two in the bedroom . colby : you 're making my point for me , scott . if that woman 's unstable enough to be dangerous around guns , she does n't belong in this house . scott : she 's unstable because you keep twisting her mind around . colby : it would n't be so easy to twist if she was n't already insane . scott : how can you be playing games like this when your brother is so sick ? colby : j.r. is behind me 100 % . scott : ok , ok . that 's it . this has gotten completely out of control . either you tell adam you did it or i will . colby : what are you so angry about , scott ? that i am the only person trying to defend this family or that i am going after the wild woman you still have the hots for ?

[ scene_break ] greenlee : what 's that for ? zach : you 've been officially cut off . greenlee : because i asked you if you could stand the idea of hooking up with me ? zach : do n't turn this around . greenlee : it was hypothetical . for that tiny sliver of time when we thought that there was no hope , i felt like we loved each other . zach : we did the right thing . greenlee : you 're right . it 's not like i was serious . zach : no , of course , you were n't . drink your water .

[ scene_break ] zach : i think what happened between us in the bomb shelter was a -- a lot more intimate than sex could ever be . greenlee : i know what you mean . zach : so , now all we need is for ryan and annie to get back together and the -- the world will be right again . greenlee : you know , i was thinking that i could help with that . zach : how ? greenlee : ryan does n't trust a lot of people , but he trusts me -- at least , he did in those days . so i could just nudge him in the right direction , get his mind off of kendall and back onto annie . zach : what 's a bad idea . greenlee : why ? zach : because we 're not shrinks . ryan is lost , he 's delusional . and the last thing i want is for you and kendall to slip into a world that does n't exist anymore . [ scene_break ] ryan : look , i do n't want emma to realize that i do n't remember her . so i 'm -- i 'm going to need a little bit of help with some of the details , you know , like the baking apples and cinnamon and the ice skating . it might mean that we got to spend a little bit of time together , but i really think that it 'll -- it 'll protect emma in the long run . annie : i wo n't let emma suffer . i 'll help you in any way i can . ryan : for what it 's worth , i do n't want this to go on forever . i -- i want to wake up . annie : that 's not exactly `` i love you , `` is it ? ryan : i 'm going to go and say good - bye .

[ jesse sighs ] jesse : the burglary -- i mean , that sounds really suspicious . are you sure there was nothing missing when you finally cleaned up ? angie : no , nothing -- i mean , that 's what was so strange . jesse : hmm . that means they did n't find what they were looking for . also , they did n't get what they needed out of me . angie : baby , listen , do -- do you think we should bring derek in on this ? jesse : no , no . i think i got a better shot at nailing these guys if they know that i 'm not on to them , but i need you to talk to derek . keep talking to him , find out everything you can about remy 's murder . angie : of course . we 're in this together . jesse : i need you to know that you did n't do anything wrong . i wanted you to move on , to live your life . but you got to know that -- uh -- i 've spent the last 20 years dealing with the emotional insanity . i got to find someway to process it , it 's not going to be easy . angie : i never let go of your heart , jesse . never . jesse : neither did i .

[ scene_break ] damon : hey . hey . i -- i know you have a lot to deal with right now . i just -- i wanted to apologize for piling on more stress earlier . colby : well , you lying to me seemed like such a big deal , but it 's , uh -- it 's nothing compared to what my brother 's going through . so , uh , my -- my dad , he told me i should go in there and i should talk to him , be positive because j.r. will pick up on that . so i did . i went in there , and i put on a happy face . but , uh , i 'm not sure it made a difference , you know ? makes me wonder if he even knows we 're there . damon : he does . colby : damon , you do n't -- you do n't know that . damon : yeah , i kind of do . look , when i was 11 , my cousin tony got knocked out playing football . i took him to the hospital . they ran all these tests , and they told my aunt that he might never wake up . but i used to go to him every day after school , and i 'd read comics . colby : comics ? damon : yeah , comics . i was 11 . give me a break . colby : what ? damon : you know , after a few weeks , tony woke up , and he did n't know how long he 'd been out , but he said he remembered hearing my voice . so -- j.r. knows you 're there , colby . do n't give up on him . colby : damon , you do n't know -- how much that means to me . [ scene_break ] adam : i 'm not sure i can walk in here without j.r. knowing how really scared i am . brooke : why do n't you come with me for a minute ? come on . [ scene_break ] angie : listen . most donors leave the hospital the same day or the morning after . annie : but there are risks . angie : whenever you 're put under anesthesia , there 's always a risk , but serious complications are very rare -- less than 1.5 % of all donors . annie : well , do they have to put me under ? angie : well , no . you can be kept awake during the procedure , but you 'll still have to be numb from the waist down , just to prevent any discomfort during the collection process . so , look , unless you have any other questions , i think now would be the time to share this with your family . ok ? annie : no . no . i want to do it .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : i wanted to believe that i could put what i had with ryan in the past and never look back . but i ca n't just snap my fingers and make it over . it does n't work like that . we have a long , complicated history , years of memories . david : if you 're not ready to move on -- greenlee : i do n't how to move on . that 's why i went to the castle tonight . i was hoping that being there , remembering the good times and the bad , would help me figure it out . david : you 're still in love with ryan . greenlee : you 're the one that i can trust , and that means everything to me . david : greenlee , you 're not the only one who 's been dishonest . i lied to you about what 's going on between me and erica . greenlee : you said you were playing her , letting erica think that you 'd turned on me . david : i 'm sorry . greenlee : sorry ? i trusted you . how could you help that bitch take over my own company ? david : hey . erica threatened to send me to prison if i did n't . she 's holding gayle over me as leverage to keep me in line . gayle is angry , and she has enough damaging information to send me to jail for many years to come . and maybe that 's exactly what i deserve for lying to you .

[ scene_break ] derek : murder 's a serious charge . maria : i can make it stick . ethan : so can i . derek : let 's get back to motive . maria : he had plenty of motive . did n't you ? because edmund had gotten in touch with the hit man that you hired to kill ryan , and he 'd arranged a meeting with him . so the hit man gives you up , you go down . obviously , you found out about it , and you had to stop edmund before he nailed you . right ? yeah , i 'm right . i 'm right , and ethan saw it . here 's the thing . you wanted me to believe that my husband was the monster . you said everything you could to make it sound like my husband was the evil one . but that 's not him , that 's you . kendall knows it , ethan -- everyone knows that . the only thing that edmund ever did wrong was to love me , because i believed you . i believed you . oh , my god . it should have been you . it should have been you . i wish to god you were dead . say something . say something . say anything , damn it . derek : easy , easy , maria . maria : you just murdered my husband , you evil son of a bitch ! derek : maria , sit down .

babe , krystal and david go to trial . livia represents them at tad 's request although she has personal reasons to not want to help them . she expresses that jackson montgomery is a good friend of hers ' and she 'd much rather be prosecuting the three of them . erica , jr and adam ask the court to hear what they have to say . erica says regardless of the fact that bianca agreed to the deal to give babe and david a lighter sentence , she can not let them get away with allowing her daughter to believe that her baby died . jr says they did the same thing to him to have him believe his son was dead , as well as taking miranda from him . adam tells the judge he must use his authority to put all three of them away . the judge says he will go along with the probation and community service for babe and david . but the thought of them getting away with it makes him sick so he will have them doing very undesirable community service work and report 3 days a week to the department of probation . he also tells david he either surrenders his medical license or he goes to prison .

[ jack chuckles ] alan : whoa . jack : yeah , do n't bother . that thing 's been broken for over a year . i keep putting in requests for repair orders , but you know what the red tape 's like here . alan : yes , the wheels of justice do grind . jack : mm - hmm . alan : which brings us to the business at hand . mr. montgomery -- ms. hart , mr. reginald montgomery -- are you represented by counsel ? jack : yes , i represent them both . have a seat . alan : and yourself ? jack : well , despite the old adage of having a fool for a client , yes , alan . alan : ok . there 's not much you do these days that surprises me anymore . since we 're here to discuss potential plea agreements , i need to be sure you each understand the gravity of the charges against you . jack : before you get started here , let 's just have a little reminder . reggie here is a minor . i do n't expect you to be charging him as an adult . alan : as long as we 're handing out reminders , he 's on probation , which compounds the seriousness of all the charges against him . that 's quite a little laundry list . `` possession of a handgun in violation of probation -- a felony . criminal trespass -- a felony . conspiracy -- a felony . hindering the prosecution -- a felony . abuse of a corpse -- a misdemeanor . tampering with evidence -- a misdemeanor . `` how are your math skills , reggie ? reggie : four felonies and two misdemeanors . alan : very good . ms. hart , the charges against you include the previously mentioned four felonies and two misdemeanors . kendall : i understand . alan : i 've barely scratched the surface . in addition , we 'll charge you with perjury , burglary , theft by deception , and intimidation of witnesses -- all felonies . misdemeanor charges are false swearing , two counts of criminal trespass , and the ever popular unsworn falsification to authorities . how are we doing , young mr. montgomery ? reggie : i lost track . alan : i should hope so . as for you , jack -- your role in this primarily involves the theft and planting of the heroin , so let 's start with possession of a controlled substance , which could easily get you 10 years . you know the other charges , all made worse because you 're an officer of the court . which means , upon your felony conviction , you 'll be disbarred . if you and ms. hart were to face trial in a court of law , you 'd easily get 10 to 20 apiece . reggie could spend the rest of his formative years in a juvenile facility with a probation period that would probably end just in time for his mid - life crisis . are we all clear on the gravity of the charges here ? jack : yeah , alan , we 're clear . but before you really get rolling , i think maybe you should hear what i have to say .

[ scene_break ] jack : the so - called murder of michael cambias turned out to be a simple case of self - defense . that means the crimes you 're trying to charge us with are victimless crimes . unless , of course , you consider the corpse of michael cambias a victim . alan : do n't be disingenuous , montgomery . your victims are the people of this community . justin : what 's going on here ? laws were broken ! a man was killed , alan ! now , somebody 's going to have to pay ! jack : oh , give me a break . you made this personal a long time ago . and because you did n't get your big headlines , you expect us to go down ? justin : you bet . jack : oh , is that right ? well , ok , then , that 's it . you know what ? enjoy the chair . alan : hey . hey , hey , hey -- let 's talk deal . i can offer the following . kendall and reggie plead out to felony conspiracy to obstruct justice . you plead to possession of a controlled substance and obstruction . we drop all the other charges . you each face two to five , which means you 're out in 18 months , max . jack : well , i hope you were n't up all night with that one , because that 's not even a real offer . alan : it 's more than fair . in fact , it 's an offer you would have made yourself when you were in this office . jack : maybe . except for one thing . there are mitigating circumstances . these two were trying to protect their sister and the cousin that they love . bianca had been through so much . they were desperate to save her from any more trauma . alan : get to the counter offer . jack : they 'll plead out to the misdemeanors . probation and community service . justin : no way . no way . alan : i ca n't justify that . justin : no way . jack : well , how the hell do you justify prison time ? justin : to teach a lesson , jack . alan : this is a high - profile case , jack . the world is watching . at least our little corner of the world . i let you guys walk , i send a message that you can get away with anything short of murder . i 'm waiting , counselor . take the offer . jack : all right , mr. singer , let 's try it this way . they plead out to the misdemeanors , probation and community service . and i 'll plead guilty to the felony charges . you get to throw the book at me . kendall : what ? jack : i 'll serve whatever time a judge deems appropriate . reggie : dad , no ! kendall : no , no , jack -- jack , you ca n't do this . jack : and you can appoint my boy , justin , here to the disciplinary board that disbars me . that ought to give him his pound of flesh . but you leave these kids out of it , you understand ? do n't you mess with their future . so what do you say , alan ? when the doctors worked on you , did they find a heart ? alan : in spite of what your former protégé here says , this has nothing to do with personal vendetta or pr , it 's about you paying your debt to society . jack : and i 'm ready to do that , alan . i 'm just appealing to your sense of fair play . look , i can take this . but these two -- do n't ruin their lives . they should n't have to pay so dearly for trying to save a loved one , now , should they ? justin : well , they should have thought about that before they broke the law , jack .

[ scene_break ] erica : you 're out of your twisted mind . how could i possibly be guilty of anything to do with this tragedy ? zach : you should have let me leave town . i was ready to go , i wanted to go , and you convinced me to stay here , be a father to my son , put him back on the right track . erica : and you did such a bang - up job . zach : none of this would have happened if you 'd stayed out of it and let me go . erica : you 're a big boy . you do exactly what you want . zach : mm - hmm , and here i am . erica : and right where you belong . the lives you 've mangled -- my daughter 's , your son 's . lily could have died because of you . my friend did . and i will do everything in my power to see that you are punished into oblivion . zach : nothing like a worthy project to put the glint back in your eye . do your best , do your worst . it 's fine with me . i 've made my peace . and as for you and the rest of the geniuses in this town , you have no idea what 's headed your way . erica : you 're a lot less scary on that side of the bars . zach : you deserve everything that 's coming , every single one of you . erica : another cambias curse ? zach : i 'm going to make a believer out of even you . you can go .

[ scene_break ] adam : if she means nothing to you , then why climb back in the bottle ? why throw it all away ? j.r. : i 'm not throwing anything away , dad . i 'm just giving my mind a little break . it 's been overworked lately . adam : you 're a self - pitying fool , j.r . j.r. : well , i love you , too , dad . adam : you 're going to have to come back to reality one of these days . j.r. : well , you 're rich . why do n't you pay someone to face reality for me ? [ phone ringing ] j.r. : hello ? tad : j.r. ? j.r. : speaking . tad : listen , it 's me . amanda 's just been taken to the e.r . they 're checking her , and she may be miscarrying . j.r. : uh , sorry . it 's too late . i 'm not going . tad : well , you 're obviously in no condition to drive . so why do n't you have some coffee and get a cab ? j.r. : i 'm sorry . it looks like amanda might be losing the baby . adam : so i guess you want to run over there and hold her hand and tell her you 're sorry . j.r. : no , dad . i want to do exactly what you do . i 'm going to ignore her . i 'm going to ignore everything she 's going through . good riddance to that bitch and the bastard she 's carrying . [ scene_break ] amanda : did you reach j.r. ? is he coming ? tad : not yet , but i 'll find him . jake : ok , do you want to get going ? angie : hey , hey . come here . i want you to stay out of this . let someone else treat her . frankie : she 's scared to death . she needs her friends , people she can trust . angie : you are knee - deep in this . now , you broke a dozen rules to help her . you know what ? if david finds out that you hid the truth about the baby 's paternity , i do n't -- i want -- listen to me . i want you to keep your distance . now , you can be her friend , but you let someone else help her . he 's going to find out she 's here sooner or later , and the further away that you are , the better . frankie : yeah , this is franklin hubbard . i need an ob / gyn in the e.r . , stat . yeah . jake : hey , hey . so there 's no sign of hayward , right ? frankie : no . jake : ok , good . angie : i want you to remember what i said . [ scene_break ] opal : yeah , so jackson said he was going to , you know , try to change ryan 's mind . how did you know he did n't want to come ? zach : just a gut feeling . he just ca n't accept that she 's gone , i guess , right ? opal : why do n't you talk to him ? you two are so close . zach : me and ryan ? no , that 's wishful thinking on kendall 's and greenlee 's part . opal : not just kendall and greenlee . i always thought that the two of you were kind of like kindred spirits . zach : no , far from it . he stepped over the line , and now i do n't think he can get back from it . opal : well , you know , people say and do things in grief that they do n't necessarily mean . ryan did just lose the woman he loved . zach : we all lost greenlee . but he blames me for it and i accept that . but i do n't think there 's going to be any reconciliation . it does n't work that way . opal : stubborn , simple - headed jackasses . men . zach : you 're not wrong . but it 's not something i can change , either . opal : yeah , well , the celebration is tomorrow . so i 'll expect you to be there , at least . [ scene_break ] jackson : ryan , so much of greenlee 's life was about you . i think you 're going to regret it if you do n't go . ryan : if i went to this celebration , then that would be the same as me saying goodbye to her . and i ca n't do that , jack . you see , every morning i wake up and i expect to see her lying there beside me . i think that maybe this whole thing has been a bit of a mistake , that she found her way home . and just for one second , i actually feel her there before it all comes crashing down . so if i went to this and i heard everybody talk about her in the past tense , then i would lose even those . and i really do n't want to lose those . and this may sound crazy , or it may sound like it 's a really lame excuse or something , but it 's the truth . jackson : actually , it does n't sound crazy at all . ryan , my thought was that if we could all get together , talk about her , remember her , that we could have some of those moments , the moments you were talking about , back , even if just for one day . ryan : i really hope that it works for you . but i am just not ready yet . [ scene_break ] reese : i was not stalking you . when i saw you and zach together , i felt horrible , i felt ashamed , and i did not mean to intrude . kendall : then what were you doing there ? reese : i do n't know . kendall : you do n't know . well , i do . you came to try to make another grab for my husband . reese : i do n't want your husband . and i 'm getting real sick and tired of hearing you accuse me of that . kendall : right , right . you 've never had any feelings for him . reese : no , i did . i felt close to him . i was drawn to him . but the kiss was a mistake . kendall : you ca n't just ruin peoples ' lives and then go , `` oops , mistake . `` you 've already hurt my sister and drove her away . you are not coming between zach and me . reese : you are not the only one who has been hurt in all this , kendall . you and zach are going to go on right ? you and bianca are sisters , and you will come together again . do you have any idea what i have lost ? kendall : i really do n't care . reese : no , of course you do n't . of course you do n't , even though you have some responsibility in everything that has happened . kendall : what ? reese : since you woke up from your coma , you 've been on a mission to bring me down , and it worked . but you did n't stop with me . you could have tried to forgive bianca and zach before everything got so bad . but no , you just want to blame everything that 's happened on somebody else , especially me . i mean , even greenlee 's death . kendall : ryan caught you kissing my husband . that 's why greenlee was on the road . reese : yes , and you were the one driving the car that night . kendall : of course . ok , so that 's what this is about . you intend to blackmail me , after all . [ scene_break ] kendall : so when we 're with zach , it 's our little secret , but alone , the gloves come off . do you honestly expect me to hand over my husband ? reese : you are unbelievable . i do n't want your husband . kendall : well , then stay the hell away from us and away from our home . reese : i told you why i 'm not leaving . kendall : right , ok . do you honestly think you can convince us that you love bianca ? reese : i 'm going to do my damnedest to try . you know what ? maybe the best i will ever get is , `` hey , reese is n't so bad . `` but you know what ? i 'm going to prove to bianca that i love her , and i 'm not going to stop until i win her back .

[ scene_break ] adam : i know you were being sarcastic , but you were right . losing that baby would be the best thing that ever happened to you . j.r. : oh , come on . that 's a chandler heir you 're wishing dead . adam : no , i 'm not wishing anybody dead . but i am worried to death about you . j.r. : well , save it . because i can measure your depth of sincerity with a swizzle stick . no , the best thing that would happen to amanda is to lose that baby , because she would n't have to go through nine circles of adam chandler hell . you would snatch that baby . you would feed it and you would protect it and just treat it like a proper chandler . maybe you 'd try a little bit harder this time . you know what you should do , dad ? you should stick to raising orchids or something , because you suck at being a dad . sometimes i wish i was never even a chandler . adam : and i wish i was n't ashamed of my son . i 've had it . tad : so have i. i 'm tired of listening to you two tear each other to ribbons when there are people out there who need you . adam : yes , you 're absolutely right . there 's a grandson that needs me to put him to bed . because his father 's too drunk to stand up . j.r. : oh , yay . here 's to tad for getting rid of the big bad wolf -- [ tad knocks the drink out of j.r.

[ scene_break ] reese : would you wait ? you 're going to want to hear what i have to say . ryan : yeah , i thought i made it really clear to you that i do n't want anything to do with you at all . reese : kendall was the one who was driving the car that forced greenlee off the road , not zach . all right ? he 's been covering up for her the whole time . ryan : and ? reese : what , you knew ? ryan : zach is n't quite as clever as he thinks he is . how did you find out ? reese : i overheard them talking . look , ryan , i know you hate me . you ca n't stand me . i 've made my share of mistakes . just go on , line me up against the wall . shoot me . what about kendall ? what about everything she 's done ? and zach , he just keeps cleaning up after her . he keeps wiping it all under the rug . ryan : why does this matter so much to you ? reese : kendall matters to me because she matters to bianca . and right now , kendall 's not going to stop until she sees me destroyed . and i feel like if i ever want to have another chance with bianca , i have got to prove myself to the people that she loves . ryan : ok , so you think telling people that kendall lied about a fatal car accident , you think that that 's going to help your cause ? reese : look , i 'm not telling people . i 'm not telling the police . i am telling you . because , i do n't know , i think that you deserve to know more than anyone else . and i have been involved in too many secrets , and all it 's done is gotten me in trouble . ryan : so we 're done here . reese : i love bianca . and she 's going to know that i do . ryan : if that were true , then you would n't be here , fighting with her friends and family . you would be back in europe , fighting for bianca . reese : you 're so wrong . the battleground is here . [ scene_break ] david : what is it ? krystal : i miss jenny . david : i know you do . tad is being very unfair , not letting her over here . but we 're going to work on that . i promised you , remember ? it 's a whole new start , mrs. hayward , for you and for me . krystal : wow , and you 're just leaving for the hospital . that was like you were marching off to war . david : wait up for me , all right ? i should n't be long . [ scene_break ] amanda : well ? doctor : it 's too soon to know what 's going on . the sonogram and blood work will tell us a lot more . jake : hey , hey . how 's our girl doing ? doctor : we 'll know in a few hours . jake : good . are you hanging in there ? amanda : i guess you should be happy if i do lose the baby . i mean , it 's david 's , for god 's sake . j.r . hates me , anyway . i mean , the poor thing would just end up in the middle of the whole mess . i guess i 'd gotten psyched about being a mom , raising a son or daughter on my own if i had to . god , i really do n't want to lose this baby . jake : you 're not . look , do n't get upset , ok ? you 've got to stay calm , and that is the doctor 's orders . that is two doctors ' orders . frankie : i agree . i second . amanda : you guys have been really great . thank you for everything that you 've done , especially keeping the truth from david . angie : it 's all right , i know about david being the father . and i want you to know that i 'm on your side , too . i will do everything that i can to keep him from finding out . i know first - hand what that man is capable of , and i do n't want you to get hurt . amanda : thank you . angie : you and you , give us a minute . jake : you . frankie : it 's plural . angie : they 're good doctors and sweet guys . but they do n't know what it 's like to have a baby growing inside you . and i want you to know that i do understand . sweetheart , i know how afraid you are . i just want you to know that your doctors are doing everything they possibly can to save this baby , and everything else is in god 's hands . [ scene_break ] j.r. : you know , when you 're right , you 're right . i 'm a worthless drunk . amanda knew it . she used it against me . hayward knew it . tad : j.r. , you 're not worthless . but you have to understand something . amanda was used by hayward . she was manipulated . she 's not the enemy . he simply did to her what he did to dixie , what he 's doing to krystal . she 's confused . more importantly , she 's scared . she 's alone , and she 's scared to death that she 's going to lose that baby . your baby . she needs you . j.r. : not like this . i 'm no good to anybody like this . tad : then sober up . if you do n't , hayward wins . [ scene_break ] jake : hey , what are you doing here ? i thought you were getting married today . david : amanda was brought in . pregnancy complications . where is she ? yeah , i 've heard . i 'm chief of staff here , remember ? i know everything that goes on in this place . hubbard , where do you have her stashed ? frankie : she does n't need your kind of grief right now . david : did she lose the baby ? frankie : no , but she could . we 're waiting on test results . listen , why do n't you give her some breathing room ? every time you guys go at it , she seems to get more and more upset , and that 's not what she needs right now . david : so you two appointed yourselves her guardian angels , is that it ? jake : just calling it as we see it . you kicked her to the curb , and j.r . kicked her out because of it . she 's in this hospital because of you . so the way i see it , if she loses the baby , it 's your fault . [ scene_break ] ryan : so i had a little visit with reese . she confirmed that you were n't driving the car that night , that it was kendall . zach : what are you going to do with that information ? [ scene_break ] zach : kendall and i lied to the police . what are you going to do ? are you going to go tell so we get arrested ? that 's how you 're going to get your revenge for greenlee ? ryan : no . no police , zach . i told you , it does n't make a difference to me who was actually driving the car . greenlee was on the road that night because of you . kendall was on the wrong side of the road that night because of you , because you were arguing about reese , all right ? you set this whole thing in motion , zach . zach : what do you want from me ? ryan : i want to know why you have n't gotten rid of reese yet . kendall : that 's a good question . i 'd like to know the answer , as well . why do n't you tell him , zach ? ryan : zach , i mean , it 's a simple question . honestly , if you want to be with reese , go be with reese , man . you want to get rid of her , then get rid of her . zach : all right . kendall : zach , listen -- listen , wait a minute -- wait a minute . i want us to get back to normal . i do . and i want us to be a family again , but we ca n't , not with her here . and she 's determined to stay here and torment us all . zach : you want to get back to normal . kendall : yeah . zach : you want me to get rid of her . ok , good . i 'll get rid of her . no problem . do n't expect me at home .

[ scene_break ] david : i know you think i 'm responsible for you being here right now , that i have somehow put your baby at risk . amanda : what you did to me was awful . david : i was just confessing to the truth , amanda . letting j.r. know that you were deceiving him on my behalf , and that you were paid for your troubles . you acted freely , of your own will . so how does that make me the bad guy ? amanda : you know how . things change . i started having feelings for j.r . i could have given this baby a good home , one that -- david : the chandler mansion is not a home , it 's a prison . you should be thanking me for rescuing you and this baby from that place . amanda : i do n't feel grateful to you right now for anything . david : so if you 're still so antagonistic toward me , why did you feel the need to talk to me ? maybe i can tell you why . because you 're trying to muster up the courage to tell me that this child you 're carrying is mine .

[ scene_break ] erica : why do i get the feeling that you would throw me out the window the first chance you got ? greenlee : we 'll have them bolted shut so there 's no temptation . erica : where is this offer even coming from ? greenlee : i want to turn fusion around . it 's my number - one priority . you and i will never be friends . hell , we 'll probably never get past civil , but we 're smart , and we 're good at what we do . maybe we should stop fighting each other and start fighting fusion 's competition out there . erica : if i agreed -- and that 's a big `` if `` -- how can you possibly imagine that we could even work together ? opal : you kind of hate each other . greenlee : well , the one thing that we do share is that we care about fusion . we 'll start there . and we do n't have to literally work side by side . we can oversee different projects . i mean , i hear you 've got a whole new line -- going ultra glamorous ? randi and madison say it 's genius . opal : huh , it 's erica kane . enough said . greenlee : well , you do have a certain style . and you do know your way around branding , so if you want to run with it , i wo n't interfere . erica : we 've established my strengths . what are yours ? greenlee : i have an idea for a whole new line of cosmetics . erica : fusion already has a number of established lines , plus a new one that i just launched with great success . so how is yours different ? greenlee : well , if you want to know , you 're going to have to partner up . but if both of our lines succeed , fusion will blast right back to the top . erica : it 's not without potential . greenlee : yeah , if we can get past the insults . erica : the things you said about ryan 's and my relationship were very harsh . greenlee : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . if you want to hate me , go ahead . but if we can cooperate enough to save fusion , we both get what we want . erica : i 'll think about it . greenlee : time 's critical , erica . erica : yes , i know that , but it 's a big decision , and i have to figure out first off , how it might possibly work . i have to speak to my -- albert . my attorney in new york . opal : high powered . greenlee : good . good , talk to your attorney . i 'll talk to my father . erica : give jackson my best , will you ? greenlee : of course . opal : she sounded sincere . erica : i know how to sound sincere , too . opal : you think she 's playing you ? erica : she 's trying to . opal : so , now what ? erica : there is no way that greenlee ever would have believed that i was really interested in partnering with her if i had caved right away . now , when i agree -- opal : she 'll buy it hook , line , and stinker . erica : [ chuckles ] two can play this game .

[ scene_break ] annie : i -- i just found out that i could be j.r. 's donor . i only waited like a tiny little bit , because i had asked angie to research the whole , you know , partial match question . i mean , basically , i did n't want to get your hopes up until i knew j.r. 's chances . and there 's this whole confidentiality thing . angie understands that j.r. can not find out i 'm his donor , because he hates me so much . angie : yes , and , adam , it is standard procedure for the hospital to respect a donor 's anonymity . annie : you know what ? all that matters is that angie says that being a partial match is better than nothing , so i am j.r. 's best hope , whether he likes it or not . adam : hmm . you are my angel . annie : oh , and there 's one more thing . i have to be hospitalized for this procedure , so we have to come up with a story as to why i would leave you at such a terrible time , which i would never do . adam : uh - huh . annie : i 've thought about it , and i think i have the perfect way to handle it . [ scene_break ] ryan : i mean , we 've considered every single angle . this is definitely going to work . gayle 's been prepped , she knows her script , and i 'm going to be there as backup . jake : let me go and talk to amanda , get her ready . ryan : ok . jake : bye . erica : bye . ryan : you 're not crazy about it . erica : i need to be part of it . ryan : we know . you are a part of it . you 're totally a part of it . i mean , without you , we would n't have gayle 's cooperation . it 's just that this part is getting a little bit dangerous , and i do n't want you anywhere near that . erica : ryan , it 's really sweet of you to be concerned , but my goodness , i have taken on a grizzly bear -- and won -- so david hayward is not going to be a problem . ryan : that 's not something you hear every day . [ erica chuckles ] ryan : but listen . we 're putting david in a life or death situation here . erica : and david knows me , and david respects me -- which means that he 's going to trust the plan even more . and there 's gayle . i mean , she is so vulnerable . if david starts playing her -- if he tells her he loves her -- you know , if gayle wavers for one fraction , you 're going to need me . you may be the master of the con , but i am the master of improvisation . [ scene_break ] jake : so all i need you to do is keep greenlee away from wildwind for , like , an hour . maybe , you know , an hour or two , ok ? amanda : so you and ryan and gayle can trick a confession out of david ? jake : exactly . amanda : scare the life out of him ? jake : completely right out of him . amanda : and you want me to be part of your crazy ass plan ? jake : not -- not the ass part , honey , all right ? just -- please . amanda : absolutely . jake : really ? amanda : i ca n't wait . jake : so , what -- what did -- so , what , the whole time , what , you were busting my chops ? this -- amanda : totally . jake : really ? [ amanda laughs ] jake : i love it when you do that to me . thank you . amanda : well , it 's not just for you . i 'm also doing this for greenlee , and for gayle , too . jake : you know , it 's moments like this i 'd like to show my deep appreciation . maybe some whipped cream , some hot fudge , some cut fruit -- amanda : but we 're on a schedule . jake : yes , we 're on a schedule . amanda : good thing you got my wingman here . jake : yeah , you take care of mommy , ok , 'cause she 's got a date later on . amanda : mmm . jake : all right , honey , go ahead . amanda : bye , sweetie . [ jake sighs ] jake : [ sighs ] and there she is . the woman of the hour . how do you feel ? you ok ? i just want you to know that you are not going to be alone with this . ryan and i are completely in your corner the whole -- do you want to go over the whole thing again ? gayle : no , i -- i know what i need to do . yeah . jake : for all the lies that david told you , for all the crap he convinced you to do , it 's a chance for you to take control of your life . breathe . you 're going to be great . [ gayle sighs ] jake : it 's showtime . [ scene_break ] david : you may think being the chief 's kid gives you certain privileges , like the right to intimidate me . but as far as i 'm concerned , you 're nothing but a snot - nosed rookie wasting a citizen 's time . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have places to go , people to see , things to do . natalia : no , i do n't think so . because , as much fun as this has all been , while you were slamming me , i had your car towed . david : what ? natalia : have a great day . hey , ryan , it 's me . it 's a go . ryan : sounds great . i got to go . erica : is that about your plan ? ryan : i 'll tell you about it later . erica : hey , do n't put me off , ryan . i am going to be part of this . ryan : look , i appreciate your enthusiasm . i really do , but the further you are from this , the better i would feel . ok ? singer : is n't that enough ? for you to see erica : hmm . greenlee : hi . ryan : hi . erica : i was just telling ryan how really excited you are that you and i work together at fusion . ryan : yes , yes . it sounds like you two have a lot to talk about . so , i 'll see you later . erica : i need to be someplace , as well . greenlee : we need to make a decision about fusion . erica : oh , sure . of course , we do , but i do n't have time to talk to you about it right now . i -- [ phone rings ] erica : oh . do n't tell me that you 're siccing your father on me ? greenlee : i talked to him . he 's willing to mediate . i 'll set up the meeting , handle all the details . all you have to do is listen . you know i wo n't let this go . erica : fine , but that does n't mean that i am committing to a partnership . [ scene_break ] dixie : well , i was a little lonely at first . i would have given anything to go back home and be with the people that i loved . saying good - bye was so hard . but then , i realized that i am never alone .

[ j.r. chuckles ] j.r. : `` mom and tad . `` it 's the way i wanted it . it 's funny , tad was more like a father to me than my own dad sometimes . he taught me how to ride a bike . how to make a perfect snowball . dixie : those were wonderful times , j.r . but that 's all in the past . you have a future to think about . j.r. : i do n't have a future . i do n't know why you said that this was a visit . i 'm dying . [ scene_break ] tad : people are always so afraid to mention dixie -- around me , anyway . and it 's understandable , you know ? they 're just afraid that they 're going to end up hurting me , but -- you know , sometimes , it 's actually kind of wonderful . and when i least expect it , somebody will mention her name , and before i know it , i 'm just flashing on those eyes and the gorgeous smile . well , she always used to furrow her brow and look so hopeful when she was wishing on our star . then i realized , you know , she 's -- she 's still here . she 's -- brooke : hmm . tad : it sort of keeps her alive . but then again , you 'd know something about that , would n't you ? brooke : yeah . yeah , same thing with laura . i know people do n't ever want to remind me that i 've lost a daughter , but it 's -- you 're right , it is ok , because -- it makes me think of how -- how hopeful she was , and -- and how wonderful life was . how wonderful our life was . and then i -- i see how devastated adam is over stuart , and i just wish that i could -- i wish that i could say something to him that would make him remember all the good things without making him feel more guilty . tad : you will . that 's one of the things that 's most amazing about you . you 've always had the ability to know what exactly to say to somebody , at exactly the right time , whether they wanted to hear it , or not . [ brooke chuckles ] tad : and i mean that in a good way . brooke : i tell you , adam is not an easy person to comfort . [ tad and brooke chuckle ] tad : it 's like hugging a cactus . yeah . he is something . a force of nature , that one , but as much as we hate each other 's guts , i think the thing that 's kept us from killing one another is the fact that we -- when it comes down to it , we love the same people . stuart -- brooke : mm - hmm . tad : j.r. , a.j . , and you .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : that truth serum that kendall and i got from you ? i recall being purposely vague about why we needed that stuff . there was a reason for that . i was trying to send a message -- `` do n't ask , butt out , none of your business . `` so why 'd you run to ryan and tell him about it ? david : i thought he was the one you were using it on . if ryan was lying to you or cheating on you , i was going to straighten him out . greenlee : i 've told you a million times , david , stay out of my marriage . ryan would never hurt me . david : yeah , well , obviously , things are n't all peaches and cream in lavery land or you would n't be so mad that i blew your cover . greenlee : no , it was none of your business . i told you i would handle it . david : i was worried about you , greenlee . what do you expect ? greenlee : i expect you to turn a blind eye . you 've been pretty good at that lately . david : what is that supposed to mean ? greenlee : i came to you for help months ago , and you were too busy running interference with that skanky , baby - napping daughter of yours . david : do n't talk about babe like that . i do n't remember you asking for my help . greenlee : i came here to see you in this about - to - be - tinder cabin . i told you i was n't feeling like myself , you promised to check me out ? ring any bells ? probably not since i never heard from you again . oh , but do n't feel bad . i only went crazy , almost threw myself off fusion 's rooftop , and ended up in a psych ward . david : you what ? greenlee : yeah , i was being poisoned by ryan 's brother . i 'm positive . david : oh , my god ! greenlee : hard to believe ? yeah , you 're not the only one . ryan refuses to accept it . i was going to use that truth serum on jonathan . but then you had to butt in , tip ryan off , and ryan showed up just as jonathan was about to confess . david : wait a minute , are you telling me that ryan would n't even let you ask his psycho brother the million - dollar question ? greenlee : oh , no . he was mad as hell . he got his brother out of there before he could say another word . and now , thanks to you and your big mouth , i 'll never get the truth out of jonathan .

[ scene_break ] kendall : no , greenlee and i still think that jonathan 's the freak who poisoned her , not zach . ethan : well , then i 'm sorry , but you 're still wrong . look , zach admitted going after greenlee , that he tried to kill ryan . he succeeded with edmund . god knows how many other crimes the guy 's probably got away with by now . why are you looking at me like that ? kendall : well , because you 're handling this awfully well . ethan : well , to be honest , it really does n't come as that much of a shock to me . kendall : yeah , but it could n't be easy for you . i mean , i get that you want to snap zach out of your family tree . i know you went your whole life without knowing the man , and then , when you met him face to face , he flat out denied he was your father . that blows , no question . ethan : so you should n't be so surprised that i really do n't care that much about him . kendall : yes , but i know how hard it is to dismiss your own parent , no matter how awful things have gotten . i went my whole life without knowing who my father was . and when i finally met him and realized how evil he was , it nearly destroyed me . ethan : kendall , i 'm sorry for what you had to go through , i know it was very hard , but our situations are completely different . i expected this from zach , and i 've made peace with it . kendall : ethan , do n't do this to me . [ scene_break ] zach : i 'm capable of lots of things -- lying , cheating , scamming . and you think i 'd stop short at , what , poisoning little greenlee ? aidan : yeah . i do , actually . zach : why ? aidan : because you choose opponents that can fight back . zach : what , like edmund ? he was in a wheelchair , and he could n't fight back . aidan : i have questions about that crime , too . the only witness to the murder was your son , and it 's no secret that your son hates you . which you ca n't really fault him for . but what i 'm worried about is that that hatred runs so deep that he 's going to try and accuse you of a murder that you did n't commit . zach : huh . there is one tiny flaw in your brilliant deduction . i confirmed the accusation . aidan : which brings me to my next question . you see , many people have accused you of many crimes , including taking a shot at ryan , and you have denied each charge . and now , all of a sudden , out of the blue , `` i 'm the killer . i 'm the poison pusher . `` you see why i need your help ? i ca n't work it out . zach : so -- so what do you think , i 'm innocent ? you want to go out there and clear my name ? that 's sweet , aidan , all right , but i 'm not interested . man : good morning , mr. slater . i hate to break this up , but i really need some time alone with you before we go to court . zach : i have nothing to say . man : i 'm here to help you . it 's not in your best interests to continue to turn me away . you will regret it later . zach : no , i have no regrets .
