[ scene_break ] ryan : there was n't a good time for me to tell you about julia 's offer . kendall : really ? how about `` hey , kendall , julia stopped by to adopt our child `` ? you could have said that a month ago . ryan : i was just trying to protect you from any unnecessary -- i want what 's best for you . kendall : ryan , i am so sick to death of hearing that . why are you so compelled to take care of me in ways that i do n't even need ? you know what i do -- you know what i need and what i want more than anything in this world ? i need me alone , you gone . you want a baby so much with julia ? why do n't you go and make one yourself ?

kendall finds out that julia has considered adopting hers ' and ryan 's baby . she tells ryan that since he did not discuss this with her , she can not trust him and she 's going to take away his paternal rights . janet is in jail and getting lots of visitors . first david tells her he can strike a deal for her if she can tell him the truth about whether dixie is alive and how he can find her . jonathan goes to see janet and asks her how she could try to ruin his life when she does n't know him and he 's never done anything to her . she shares with him that all she 's ever wanted is to be accepted and to be normal . babe tells jr that she will never trust him again or forgive him after what he did . when she was fighting for hers ' and her son 's life at the hands of janet , she was hoping he 'd come and save her . and what he was doing was plotting a plan to hunt her down and assume she kidnapped their son . krystal is backing her daughter with that , remembering that jr held her hostage . but jr brings tad , di and jamie into babe 's hospital room and tells them all he forgives them for their wrong - doings along with krystal and babe . and he tells babe he is only asking her forgiveness . she then agrees to forgive and remarry him . krystal tells her daughter she can not be serious to trust that man or take him back again . in jack 's hospital room , he tells erica that she needs to prevent lily from seeing jonathan . but she is more concerned about dr. greg madden working in the hospital and looking after kendall during her pregnancy . she tells joe that he can not trust josh nor believe it will benefit him to find out he 's her biological son . joe promises erica he will not tell josh that he 's her son . but he also does not intend to turn his back on his grandson nor prevent him from working in the hospital .

kendall : i 'm pregnant . we made a baby . [ kendall sighs ] kendall : i know , i know -- this is huge . and this is not exactly how i wanted to tell you , but you 're listing off all the reasons to take over cambias , and i did n't want you to leave this little guy off -- or little girl . i know , i know -- it 's a lot to wrap your head around right now . i know all of our focus has been on -- on killing and -- and murders and death . and after all of this loss , how can your brain even begin to compute a new life ? but that 's why this happened now . our baby is the perfect reason to move ahead and change our focus . it 's ok to want this , zach . it 's ok to be happy . zach : how do i do this ? [ scene_break ] ryan : you make me crazy . [ italian accent ] you make - a me crazy . annie : what are you doing ? ryan : [ normal voice ] well , you said you love it when i say that , and i 'm trying to give you the perfect delivery , but i got to -- here we go . you make me crazy . nothing ? i do n't even know if we 're engaged yet . annie : no . ryan : `` no `` maybe , or `` no `` never ? annie : oh , my god , you 're impossible . ryan : well , i -- i like to say `` persistent , `` really . it 's more persistence , i think . so , is that -- seriously , is that a `` no `` maybe , because `` maybe `` -- totally fine with me . i can live with `` maybe . `` annie : you have n't said anything about love , ryan . what about love ? [ scene_break ] bianca : and this is where you should record the donations . i know that this seems a bit tedious . what ? [ zoe giggles ] zoe : you and i working here together . bianca : yeah , what about it ? zoe : babe would 've loved it . bianca : i 'm kind of loving it myself . [ scene_break ] erica : j.r. has something on babe . he threatened to use it against her . this is a stretch for you ? tad : no -- no , but he just found out she was alive . i mean , surely they ca n't be at each other 's throats just yet . erica : this blackmail threat was pre - death , but apparently it is still serviceable , so i -- i need to find out what it is that he has against her . you 'll find that out for me , wo n't you , tad ? tad : why ? so you can use it against babe instead ? [ scene_break ] josh : babe 's still recovering . you need to leave . now , j.r . j.r. : thank you for saving her . [ though j.r. extends his hand toward josh , he refuses to shake it . ] josh : you take your phony gratitude and get the hell out of my face . j.r. : you think this is fake ? my wife is alive . i did n't think that i 'd ever see her face again . i prayed so hard to see it just one more time . i thought that if i saw her in my dreams , it meant that god was listening to me . but this ? i never thought that i 'd look into those eyes ever again . and it 's all because of you . how could i not be grateful ? i have my wife back . josh : is that how it is , babe ? does j.r. have you back ? [ scene_break ] erica : i 'm not the blackmailer , j.r. is . tad : ok . if that 's the case , then why are you so determined to find out about babe 's little secret , huh ? i mean , why are you doing this now ? personally , i do n't give a damn what happened before babe 's accident . our family has been given a -- a gift , a veritable miracle , ok , a second chance . would it really hurt anybody to be able to step back long enough and let them enjoy it ? erica : tad , believe me , i would like nothing better than for babe to go back to j.r . tad : well , you 're the only one that 's worried about josh getting together with babe in the first place . if my son is so determined to reconcile with his wife , then why are you so determined to get ammunition that would force babe out of your son 's life ? erica : am i the only person in pine valley who has noticed that babe is married and makes no move to get unmarried ? i mean , ok , j.r. is your stepson . but josh is your nephew . have n't you noticed ? does n't it bother you that your nephew has gotten his heart slammed and slammed time and time again by that woman ? or do you only care about protecting j.r. 's feelings ? tad : that 's not fair , i care about all three of them . erica : well , then what do you do ? you just sit back and -- and just throw up your hands or -- tad : erica , dixie 's dead . j.r. 's mother is dead . and for a while there , he thought his wife was dead , too . now , i was there , i saw what it did to him firsthand . i saw him grieve over all the mistakes he ever made with her . now he 's got a chance to make up for it , and i say more power to him . and as much as i want j.r. to be happy , i want the same thing for josh and babe . all i know is life is too damn short to try to rob anybody of a shot at happiness . [ scene_break ] bianca : jeff , i really appreciate you offering to help out here . jeff : well , i spent quite a bit of time in africa doing almost the same thing . i enjoy it . and if i can mend a fence between you and your mother , that 'd be all the better . bianca : hmm . well , about that , i should apologize . your relationship with my mother really is none of my business , and i 'm going to do my best to stay out of it . who knows ? she might even return the favor . jeff : i would n't hold your breath . bianca : uh -- have you had a chance to look at the first - aid area yet ? jeff : i was just about to do that . bianca : ok , when you do , let me know if there 's anything else you need -- any supplies , equipment , whatever -- miranda : come on , guys ! bianca : thanks . miranda : i drove here . [ bianca chuckles ] bianca : um -- these are the toddler sizes over here . zoe : no , no , no , those are infants . bianca : oh . huh . of course . zoe : no , no , no , no -- already did that . this one . bianca : hmm . [ scene_break ] ryan : i do n't want you to feel pressure . you know , i thought that my marriage proposal was spontaneous enough . i do n't want you to feel forced into telling me that -- that you love me when -- when you do n't . annie : i -- i do n't . ryan : and i 'm -- i 'm ok with that , i mean , for a lot of reasons , really . one , we have fun together -- tack room at the stables is evidence of that . two , we work well together -- our short time at cambias , you know , was evidence of that . and we make each other laugh , right ? we do . have you seen my social calendar recently ? i mean , if you remove the `` woo annies , `` i 'm left with just play dates with emma and spike . i mean , that 's not a lot , really . and as far as roommates go , come on , we 're perfect . we like the same tv shows . we do n't argue about whose turn it is to do the dishes . and who makes a better cup of joe , who ? i 'll give you a hint -- it 's not you . [ annie laughs ] ryan : come on , we fit . you know we do . annie : not too long ago , the person you wanted to fit with was kendall . [ scene_break ] kendall : this baby will mark a whole new chapter in our lives , zach . think about it -- when you see that -- that perfect , beautiful , little face , that -- that combination of you and me -- i mean , come on . i know you . i know you will think about the future and -- and our family and you and me and spike and baby x . zach : i know you want me to pick you up and throw you around and be excited about this , but i got to tell you i -- kendall : i do n't need this -- i do n't need that from you , zach , i do n't . i know you want this . i know , because your biggest regret was not raising ethan . i 'm just waiting for you to see it . zach : i did n't raise ethan because of my father . kendall : right , but you were a teenager when ethan was born , you did n't even know he existed . this is so different , zach . your father can not keep you from this child . you 'd be going into this with both eyes open . zach : i lost ethan , i lost my mom , and i almost lost you . hey , i -- kendall : you did n't . look , i 'm right here , i 'm still here . and i 'm carrying our child . we 've been given a reason to believe in the future . this -- this is going to happen and -- and it 'll be right , and no one will ever come between us and our child , no one . just tell me you believe it . tell me that you want this . kendall : say you want this . we can do it . zach : i want this . [ kendall chuckles ] zach : i want this , i want this . kendall : yes ! we made a baby . zach : maybe a valentine 's baby , right ? is that it ? is that when our little cupid baby -- valentine 's day when we -- kendall : i -- well , maybe . i do n't know , i do n't know . zach : with the thing ? kendall : `` with the thing . `` i -- i do n't know , i have n't really calculated the date . but in my heart , that 's when it happened . zach : yeah ? kendall : mm - hmm . zach : it 's got a beautiful mom , a cool little brother -- kendall : and a sexy dad . zach : hmm -- yeah . kendall : yeah . zach : i ca n't wait to hold her / him -- them ? them ? kendall : them -- `` them `` ? let 's not -- no , do n't -- no , do n't -- do n't go there , please , sweetie . zach : i love you . i love spike . i love -- what is it , `` baby x `` ? kendall : mm - hmm . zach : now i know i ca n't take cambias . [ scene_break ] ryan : i had hopes that kendall and i would go further , raise our son together , have a family . but i got over it , and i moved on . i mean , completely separate of that , i met you , and -- i mean , how do i feel about you ? love ? i mean , love is very loaded . clearly , i love to be around you , and -- and now i want to be around you all the time . i want to be the guy whose arms you jump into when you 're scared . i want to take you to the garden to see , like , a million more shows , and this time when the bass player hits on you , i can say `` back off ! `` [ annie laughs ] ryan : `` i 'm her husband ! `` all tough like that , you know ? annie : ahem . ryan : and , man , do i want to make love to you . and then make love to you , and then make love to you , and -- well , you get the idea . because i ca n't stand not being that close to you . and because you 're really , really good at it . [ annie laughs ] ryan : just so i 'm clear -- in fact , that 's my first reason . [ annie laughs ] ryan : so this is so not rebound , ok ? it 's not . i want a future with you , till death do us part . i know i said i would n't pressure you . and if i 'm not playing fair right now , then -- well , then too bad , because i really , really want you to say yes .

[ scene_break ] kendall : our baby is exactly the reason you should take cambias . [ zach sighs ] kendall : now , i -- ok , so -- so the company has your father 's name . so what ? ryan and bianca , they -- they took the company , and they made it into something amazing . but you -- you 'll make it even better . this is -- you deserve this , you deserve a chance . zach : deserve what ? i can do my own thing . i do n't need my dad or his money . kendall : ok . well , then in the meantime , alexander will ruin all the hard work that bianca and ryan put into this company . and then he 'll establish the -- the michael cambias foundation for -- for defending violent criminals ? no , zach , you do n't want that . zach : what i want is for my children to not be connected to that man or his name . kendall : ok , well -- zach : our child -- no , we 're going to have a new start , a new beginning , right ? kendall : mm - hmm . zach : that 's what i want . i want that -- something that is not linked to my father . is it too much to ask ? kendall : cambias has n't had alexander 's imprint on it in years . zach : he 's behind it . it wo n't go away . kendall : ok , well , why do n't you think about what will go away if you do n't do this ? all the hundreds of jobs -- maybe even the miranda center . zach : and fusion . i know -- i know you want that place , i understand all that . kendall : no -- but , listen , this is -- i mean , of course i would hate to lose fusion , but this is not about me . i want you to have this because you should . because you can make it your own , and you can make it amazing . cambias is the only thing that your father ever really loved . so take it from him and change it . make it so he does n't even recognize it . this is the way for you to get even with him , this is for you to come out on top . you want to tell your dad to shove it ? well , then say yes -- run cambias , take it away from him . zach : my father 's still calling the shots . he 's boxed me in , he 's making me do things i do n't want to do . kendall : no one makes you do anything . you control whether you say yes or no . and -- and if -- if you say yes , that does n't mean that you 're caving in . zach : i want my children to respect me , and i want to be ok with the choices i 've made . kendall : your children are going to worship you and adore you no matter where you work or what you do . now , i know you were born under the cambias name , but you 're not your father , you never will be . this baby is going to be all slater -- with a little kane thrown in -- passionate , smart , and fantastically beautiful and funny , and in total awe of his or her dad . zach : i need some time . [ scene_break ] annie : you are so not playing fair . ryan : hmm -- i know . jonathan : so what are you waiting for ? why do n't you just say yes already ? [ scene_break ] babe : tad , thank you . but would you mind if we visit a little bit later ? i -- i need some time with j.r . tad : for you , the world . babe : hmm . tad : josh ? josh : you go ahead . babe 's had a pretty big day . i 'm going to stay to keep an eye on her . babe : josh -- please , i need to be alone with j.r . [ door closes ] j.r. : thank you for letting me stay . just being near you -- babe : what 's that all about -- you thanking josh , offering him your hand ? was that all just an act to set me up again ? [ scene_break ] zoe : how are you doing ? zach : i 'm better . if you ever need anything , you let me know , all right ? zach : what is that ? you know about the kid , do n't you ? bianca : oh , i do ! congratulations . [ zach chuckles ] bianca : i 'm so excited . it 's so great . zach : it 's pretty great . bianca : so , what 's bothering you ? zach : how have you made sure that the past never touched miranda ? [ scene_break ] j.r. : i said and did some horrible things before your attack . after they told me that you were dead , i hated myself for hurting you , for threatening you . i told tad and jamie if i ever had the chance to do it over again , that i would trust you completely . no doubts , no more questions . but i never thought that i 'd ever have this chance again . and now that i do , i 'm sticking to my word , and i hope that today will prove that . babe : just because you 're playing remorseful does n't mean that you actually are . j.r. : maybe not . but if you look at the facts -- i have n't run off with little adam . i have n't called my lawyer . i have n't said anything about krystal 's secret , and i did n't go off on josh . babe : you wished i died instead of dixie . j.r. : i hate that i said that . babe : i do believe that you regret it . but it wo n't last . you 'll turn on me again , and then mama 's secret wo n't be safe , and i 'll be terrified of losing my son . for so long , i tried to believe that you could change , j.r. , but all i can ever count on is that someway you 'll find a way to hate me again . [ scene_break ] tad : i promise you i 'm not trying to play favorites , i 'm not trying to screw with anybody 's life . but i do care about babe -- almost as much as you do . if anybody makes her feel caught or cornered , i want to know about it , i want to help . josh : yeah , well , i already tried to help her . i offered to take her and her son away before j.r. found out that she was still alive . a little late for that , right ? tad : you mean run away ? why the hell would she do that ? josh , i promise you , i will do anything i have to to get babe out of this , but i ca n't do it unless somebody tells me what j.r. was up to . what could possibly be so bad that she would even consider leaving her home , her family ? [ scene_break ] j.r. : i 've given you a million excuses to end this marriage for good , but somehow we 've always found a way back to each other . and i believed that . babe : now you 're the believer ? j.r. : you 're right . it 's my turn to convince you that we 're worth fighting for . we 're going to make this work , babe . i 'm going to make sure of it . and as far as krystal is concerned , i wo n't say anything about her secret . and i mean it . and i will prove to you that i can keep my word . anything to make you love me again .

[ tad chuckles ] tad : oh , babe , you do n't know the half of it . whew . see , adam and krystal used to be married -- like really married , you know ? well , we were friends -- krystal and me were good friends and one night , you know , something happened -- jesse : oh , no , you did n't . tad : one thing led to another -- but , anyway , skip ahead . when she finds out she 's pregnant with jenny , she was terrified about what his reaction would be when he found out the baby was mine . turns out she was right . jesse : same old thaddeus -- just ca n't keep it in your pants , can you ? tad : you 're not helping . jesse : what happened ? tad : he burned my house to the ground . it gets worse . see , krystal- she was over at chandler mansion not too long ago , she goes into labor a little prematurely , and she needed help . well , adam refused . he stepped over her , left her lying there alone on the floor . jesse : you 're kidding me . tad : nope . jesse : i mean , after that idiotic behavior , he still took them in ? tad : oh , it gets real complicated . see , it does n't matter how much noises he makes -- he 's still madly in love with her . and since it 's you and me talking , she 's got feelings for him , too . jesse : well , this might be just a hunch , tad , but do n't you think adam chandler 's place might not be the right safe house for you ? tad : i do n't know . like i said , i did n't have much of a choice . look , krystal -- krystal will be ok . she 's , you know , been around the block a few times . she can be very formidable when she needs to be . i just got to have faith that she 's got what it takes emotionally to stand up to him when he starts throwing all that psychotic charm her way .

[ scene_break ] amanda : you 're pissed . you do n't trust me . i get that . but we have to start somewhere , so we may as well start right now . cara : because we 're family . amanda : well , if we do n't accept that , how are we gon na get anyone else to believe it ? cara : we may be family , but i do n't see us ever being friends . amanda : why ? because i called immigration on you , or because you 're still in love with my husband ?

[ scene_break ] jesse : well , guys , we just got word from the doctor that the baby 's perfect . angie : and ready to make her debut any day . krystal : ah , now the fun begins . all those round - the - clock feedings and the diaper changing . frankie : yeah , the crying and screaming . randi : putting all those baby contraptions together . angie : yeah , so much to do . krystal : well , i can babysit for you anytime . brot : angie , this is from natalia and me . angie : natalia and me . that i love the sound of . you two are good ? brot : we are great . she really wanted to be here , but she 's a newbie on the philly force , so she could n't get the time off . frankie : aw , man , she just ca n't stand to be away from the action like her old man . brot : that 's true . angie : well , you know from workaholic mary to another , i know how easy it is to get caught up in a job . but this -- krystal -- this is something that we can never get from our careers . no matter how successful we are professionally , nothing compares to family and friends , especially around a basket of fresh blueberry muffins . frankie : oh , mom . i love you . angie : i love you , too , darling . and i loved being with cassandra and knowing that she 's doing well , too , but i also could n't wait to get home -- and not to the job but to all of you . krystal : well , now you can just relax , right , except for the giving birth thing and then raising a baby . [ laughter ] angie : listen , i love all of you so much , you know that ? and to know that this little one is going to grow up surrounded by this love is just -- well , wait . jesse , can you take this ? the pregnant lady needs to get to the restroom again . krystal : i 'll take you . angie : no , i can get there . thanks .

[ scene_break ] jake : amanda 's having a hard time . tad : i know she is . i ca n't begin to imagine what you 're going through . but jake , let 's not forget that the two other members of this equation just signed off on a fake marriage for the next 3 years of their life -- jake : i know that . tad : so that one does n't end up dead . we 're all making adjustments , man . jake : i know , i know . i appreciate it . it 's just that she 's sensitive when she 's around cara . she 's a woman . i know . she 's not there yet . what can i tell you ? tad : tell me you 're gon na get her on the conga line , ok ? 'cause the only way that this is gon na work , that it 's gon na go down the way it 's supposed to is if everybody cooperates , right ? jake : and they will be . everybody will be . it 's just that with that sensitivity , she might need a little distance from cara . if she does , i have to respect that . tad : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait a minute . what are you talking about ? distance for you and amanda ? you mean , you need distance from me ? jake : no , not distance from you . do n't worry about it . it 's all gon na work out . tad : we have to , all right ? we have to , not just for their sake . i mean for ours . 'cause that 's what this is about , family , all right ? we ca n't forget that . we got ta stay strong . and the only way we can is if everybody is 100 % on board . now i 'm sorry amanda 's upset , but she called immigration . i 'm all torn up about the fact that she does n't understand that you 're crazy about her . you 're turning yourself inside - out . you 're not gon na go anywhere . but one way or another , she 's got ta grow up and get over it . [ scene_break ] ryan : that sounded pretty strong , right ? madison : the baby 's ok ? doctor : i believe so . i wo n't know anything for sure until i get the lab results back , but the fetal heart rate sounds good . and since you 're well into your second trimester , and there 's no sign of bleeding , it 's probably not a miscarriage . madison : but the cramping . doctor : i suspect dehydration . but you have n't had any cramping since you 've been admitted , so it 's probably a good sign that the worst is over . madison : so what now ? doctor : we 'll start you on an i.v . to start the hydration process . and keep drinking lots of water . and when we get the blood work back from the lab , we 'll go over the results , ok ? and if you have another cramp , hit the call button immediately . madison : i will . thank you . doctor : you 're welcome . madison : oh , thank god she 's all right . ryan : madison is 19 weeks pregnant . greenlee : what ? ryan : that 's the correct number , right ? madison : yes . ryan : scott was n't even out of prison 19 weeks ago . greenlee : oh , my god . ryan : so the lie about scott being the father -- why did n't you just tell me ? madison : i could n't . ryan : you could n't ? madison : i did n't know how . ryan : it 's not that hard . madison : it 's impossible . ryan : so tell me now , madison . say the words . madison : you 're the father .

'cause it 's not just her life that 's on the line , it 's mine . amanda : i am onboard with this . what is it gon na take to prove that ? tad : well , for one thing , you could have shown up at the wedding . that would have been great . amanda : i was really upset , and i did n't want to accidentally ruin things again . jake : listen , this is hard on everybody . amanda : i am so damn tired of hearing that from everyone , how we all need to work together to make it work , and yet i get reamed every time i put forth the effort , because i messed up , and no one is ever gon na let me forget that . tad : it 's not all your fault . amanda : no . no , it 's not . i 'm not the one who entered the country illegally , who used a fake name , a fake passport , pissed off some dangerous drug dealer . that was n't me . but i made a mistake , and i 've said i 'm sorry over and over and over again . what i did was stupid and mean and -- and i 'm not stupid and mean . jake : baby , nobody thinks you 're stupid . they do n't think that . i do n't think that . amanda : but you act like that . you do n't trust anything i say or do . you worry about it , and you treat me as if i 'm gon na break . well , guess what . done . broken . i have learned my lesson ! jake : nobody 's trying to hurt you . promise . amanda : really ? because nothing hurts more than knowing you do n't forgive me . [ scene_break ] madison : i was n't trying to hurt you . i thought it would be better this way . ryan : you thought it would be better keeping my child from me . how is that possibly better ? madison : we broke up . ryan : i still had a right to know . madison : you and greenlee just got back together . you were happy . i did n't want to mess with that , ok ? i did n't want to make you feel obligated . ryan : feel obli -- i would have felt like i wanted to help . madison : exactly . that 's the problem . you 're a good guy , and you would have stepped up and tried to take this on . ryan : because it 's my child . madison : it 's my child . i 've decided i 'm gon na raise her on my own . ryan : ok . what about scott ? madison : he 's a friend . ryan : like a big lie , him being the father . i mean , where did you even come up with that ? madison : remember when you found out that i was pregnant minutes before your wedding ceremony ? it would have been the worst possible time to tell you , am i right ? greenlee : it would n't have been great timing , no . madison : right . scott saw that i was in a hard spot , and he lied to help me . ryan : ok , so what about after the wedding ? like , every day lying to me ? that 's your solution ? madison : it worked for me . ryan : but it 's not just you . there 's another life here , a baby , a child . i ca n't believe you could lie to me about something so huge . madison : i did n't see another way . ryan : my god , madison , were you gon na keep this from me forever ? madison : maybe .

[ scene_break ] tad : quite a speech . how long you work on that ? jake : i just thought it up on the spot . but here 's what i could n't say in front of all those people . three years of your life . you 're committing three years of your life to protect and save cara . that 's -- i mean , all the plans and whatever you had for yourself to give up -- that 's a lot . tad : i 'm not doing it just for cara . i 'm just basically doing what mom and dad did for me . i mean , come on , think about it . abused kid with a broken arm . they could have patched me up , sent me on my way . but they knew that my life was at risk every bit as much cara 's now . so they made me a part of their family . that 's why i 'm doing this .

ryan awakens on kendall 's couch to overhear dr. madden informing her about prospective adoptive parents to her baby and finds out she 's considering that option . he asks her how she could give up on what they 'd discussed the night before of having them both in the baby 's life . she tells him that she needs a back - up plan in case she can not do the maternal thing . he goes to tell erica that they must prevent dr. madden from whatever he 's doing to cause kendall to give up her baby . they seem to be on the same page . erica is is out for blood from greg madden and urges tad to get some dirt from his past . but tad tells her no matter what he digs up , dr. madden has a glowing reputation and no soil on his record . he tells her the only way to expose dr. madden is to go public and file criminal charges with derek . josh sounds like he is in love with babe and wants to take her away from jr . but babe only wants jr . jr asks joe why he 'd even consider hiring josh on the hospital staff after his track record and what he did to erica . joe has no answer for jr on that . david tells dell that he needs to find dixie and knows that del knows she 's around although del denies it . di goes to see dixie and is surprised that she 's been staying with zach . she assumes that dixie is ready to go and reveal herself to the family .

erica reveals to maria that she believes that edmund could walk and lied about his paralysis . maria does not believe that for a minute . brooke sides with maria against erica and does not reveal that she also was informed that edmund could walk , nor about any of the suspicions she had of him before he died . jack and greenlee go to confront ethan , tell him he 's lying to falsely accuse zach of trying to kill greenlee and ryan and succeeding in killing edmund and causing the real killer to go free . but kendall believes ethan .

[ gasps ] it 's my contract . jake : ooh , what 's the gist of it ? amanda : uh , well , i do n't know . i mean , i do n't know the first thing about reading contracts , but -- look , look , look -- it says right here i am a model . jake : look at that . congrats . that 's amazing , eh ? you 're not actually a full- blown model till you sign that thing , right ? amanda : where are you going ? where are we going ? jake : we are going to go see queen bee , right , to she who must be obeyed . amanda : ok . jake : ready ? [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] jack : you 're gon na make me say it , are n't you ? ok . i 'll say it . i have several reasons for staying in pine valley , and , yes , i truly hope that one of them is you . what we had was great , and i miss it . i think you do , too , although i do n't know . sometimes you seem interested , but then sometimes you just seem angry . erica : well , we 've had our share of angry moments since you came back . jack : and our share of sparks , like that first day in your room at the yacht club , and do n't you dare pretend you did n't notice . erica : you know what was different about that day ? jack : uh - uh . erica : i do . we both thought that greenlee was gone . the big problem that had been there for us was not there . jack : ok . i 'll give you that , but do n't you think we 're adult enough to work through that ? erica : oh , jack , we 've tried . god knows we 've tried , but i think things have changed . i think we 've come full circle now , and that takes us to the place where , when push comes to shove , you will always choose your daughter over me -- always . jack : you know i would n't automatically choose greenlee over you in a fight , but let 's just slow down a second , because i 'm not even suggesting that we just leap back into something here , you know ? i appreciate these roadblocks you 're putting up , because i 've got my own concerns . there are things about you that are absolutely red flags to me , you know ? erica : oh , really ? and what would those be ? jack : i think i 'll just keep them to myself . they might come in handy in a pinch . erica : i am not gon na be charmed into this . jack : so , you admit i 'm charming . erica : you have always had those qualities , jackson montgomery , in spades . that is not the issue . jack : so , what is the issue ? greenlee ? really ? erica : jack , she 's made me the enemy . we are now locked in a death match , and it 's not gon na be pretty , and i refuse to wake up one day and realize that the man in my life is not 100 % with me , because he is so busy tending to his high- maintenance daughter , who is putting on an act to gain sympathy . jack : do you honestly think i would turn my back on you , that i would desert you ? erica : i do n't even know why we 're asking these questions . jack : oh , i can answer that one . because i think that we 've actually learned from the past and because when you and i are together and firing on all cylinders , sister , there ai n't nothing like it and because maybe , just maybe , this is finally our time . do n't you think it 's worth it to find out ? i mean , certainly it 's nothing to be afraid of . [ knocks on door ] jake : hey . oh , i 'm sorry . is this a bad time ? it 's bad . i can feel it . [ scene_break ] scott : i do n't know what to say about j.r. 's new take on annie . i 'm finding it a little hard to believe . adam : well , facing death can certainly change your perspective -- take my word for it -- and if his animosity toward her is beginning to thaw , then we do n't need to question it yet . scott : yet . yeah . you all right ? you and annie , i mean . i thought i heard raised voices earlier . adam : you 're asking how are things between us ? scott : yeah . adam : when i know , i 'll let you know . scott : wow , ok . listen . before you go , we need to talk a little business , ok ? the shareholder lawsuit over the henderson buyout . adam : could we just use one night to talk about nothing but the family , ok ? scott : yeah . ok . adam : fine . [ scene_break ] annie : if you 're trying to push this live interview idea , i have n't decided yet . brooke : i just wanted to let you know that there is nothing up my sleeve here . this is partially a peace offering . i just want to prove to you that you do n't have anything to fear on the ex - wife front -- annie : no ? brooke : and you will look good , i promise . you know , it may even help to bring this family closer together . will you do it ? j.r. : come on . what do you say ? you can talk about anything that you like . annie : fine . i will do it , but i swear , the first sign of a trick , i am out of there . i just need to call a friend first to see if -- where 'd i put my phone ?

[ scene_break ] brooke : and what about you , adam ? what were your feelings when you were going through this ordeal ? adam : we sometimes take our closest relationships for granted , and then someone says , `` your son is dying , `` and that changes everything , i mean , everything . you 've kept going thinking your son would clear things up for you , but if he dies , you die , too . brooke : and what about you , annie ? i mean , obviously , you do n't have the history with j.r. that adam does , but you must have had strong feelings to have done what you did . annie : uh , yes , strong , strong feelings . j.r. : do you mind if i say something , something that the audience may not know about my father 's wife ? our family has viewed her as suspicious ever since she married my father and rightfully so . my father is an older rich man , and she 's young , and she 's beautiful . annie : i knew it . you convinced me to do this so you could character- assassinate me in front of the entire world . j.r. : please just let me finish . see , this is what i 'm talking about , the anger in this house , but if you can find a way to put that hostility aside and try to do something good -- i treated annie like hell . she could 've let me die , but she did n't . she stepped up . she did the right thing . miracles are out there as long as we can allow ourselves as humans to make them happen , and i , for one , will never forget what you did for me . brooke : i think this is a good place to close , and if you want to know about this story in more detail , it 's in our next issue . ok . thank you , guys . adam : thank you , son . i was very moved by your words . annie : yeah . so was i . j.r. : not as moved as i was by your actions . photographer : hey , brooke , take a look at this . it 's `` tempo 's `` message board , viewer comments . brooke : annie , the whole world thinks you 're a hero . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] greenlee : did you mean you wanted me to come and meet you ? where are you planning on going ? david : i ca n't go into detail right now . bottom line , everything is about to hit the fan . greenlee : david , you 're scaring me . david : no , no . look . everything is gon na be all right , ok ? for the first time , actually , i fell like i might have a shot at winning this thing , but the problem is that once i 'm arrested , they 're gon na go to work on you . they 're gon na pressure you to give them things that they can use against me , pressure that you can not handle , so if you 're gone -- and i mean really gone , greenlee -- you 'll be safe .

[ scene_break ] ryan : here . i mean , the guy started -- madden started the whole adoption campaign with kendall like minutes after erica warned me about him , so she 's got the same reservations about him that we do . and just the way that he plays kendall -- i mean , he obviously -- he knows what he 's doing , he knows how to play kendall and what he did to you -- he lied to your face like that ? he told you to your face that you can not have children . who does that ? the guy 's gone too far . julia : it 's sickening . it 's -- it 's cruel . it 's sadistic . and why , ryan ? why me ? what would make him decide that i should n't be allowed the same kind of happiness he 's given so many other women ? ryan : i do n't know . but there is something seriously off with madden and i am going to find out what it is . [ scene_break ] zach : never for as long as i 've known you have i seen anyone intimidate you -- not ryan , not madden , not your mother , not me . i tried everything to keep you from being greenlee 's surrogate , but still , you did it . you did n't let little things like blackouts or science stop you . and now you 're sitting here and you do n't know if you should listen to ryan or to madden about the biggest decision in your life ? it 's not the kendall i know . kendall : yeah , well , i -- i 'm not too crazy about her , either , but she 's all i 've got . i ca n't see clearly , zach . i mean , the night this baby was conceived , i knew what i had to do . i knew if greenlee 's eggs were n't viable , i had to use my own , i knew . that was the absolute right decision in that moment . and every other time i 've felt backed into a corner , i 've always come out fighting . but this ? i 'm lost . the only thing that i do see clear is what you helped me see . i love this baby -- [ zach chuckles ] kendall : enough to want to give him the best possible life . but i do n't have a clue where to go from there . zach : all right . well , then do n't do anything until you get a clue . it 'll happen . it will , i promise you . but for now , maybe you should tell the boys to back off . tell madden not to parade any more childless couples in front of you and tell ryan not to talk about raising this child by himself until you had a chance to breathe . kendall : ryan does n't want to raise this baby alone . he wants to do it with me . kendall : what ? it 's weird , right ? ryan wants me to raise the baby with him . yeah , ok , you think it 's a horrible idea . it makes your head spin to imagine me playing mommy with the actual father of my child . all right , i know -- i know you think ryan is a walking disaster , and if i agree to raise this child with him , i 'll be asking for nothing but trouble . you 're thinking `` do n't do this . do n't raise this child with ryan . `` that is what you 're thinking , is n't it ? zach : that 's not what i 'm thinking at all . [ scene_break ] ryan : i mean , the guy is just always so smooth and so sure of himself . julia : does that cretin have the right -- one meeting i had with him , one . did he just look at me and decide that he did n't like me ? i mean , is that it ? do i not fit his perfect idea of what a mother should be ? or was it something i said ? was it -- was it the color of my lipstick ? what ? he is obviously given a lot of happiness to thousands of couples . maybe he just likes to mess with people . ryan : no , no . no , no , no , that 's just too random . i mean , it 's got to be something specific . there 's got to be a connection here . what do you and kendall have in common ? julia : nothing , thank god . ryan : you 're both strong , you 're both intelligent , successful women . julia : both single . what if that 's it , ryan ? what if dr. madden is some 1950s throwback who thinks that single moms are a disgrace to society ? i mean , that would explain his lying to me and his mission to take kendall 's baby away from her . that slimy piece of dirt . how can he force his values on me or anyone else ? i 'm going to let him have it . ryan : no , no , no . no , you 're not . [ scene_break ] kendall : you see ryan 's side ? zach : no , i see a man wanting to raise his son , and that makes sense to me . kendall : am i in oz ? where are all the lollipop - eating dwarfs ? zach : if i had to do it over again -- if i had all the answers now , i 'd be there . be there for every birthday and every first step , every first word -- all that stuff , you know ? graduation , career decisions , all of it . i did n't have what it takes to be a good father . i still do n't . and i do n't have a lot of love for ryan lavery . but if he thinks he can do what i could n't -- if he thinks he can be a good father to his son , then he should do it -- before it 's too late . [ scene_break ] ryan : i know , i know . i know that madden is twisted and he 's a control freak and everything else , but to face him head - on , that 's just not the way to do it . julia : if he has a chip on his shoulder about single moms -- ryan : i do n't think he does , though . i do n't . because when he agreed to help greenlee get pregnant , everybody believed that i was dead , greenlee was a widow . she was n't about to get remarried , so she was going to be a single mom . julia : well , there has to be a common denominator . if it 's not the lone - parent theory , then what is it ? ryan : i do n't know , but i 'm going to find out , i promise you . julia : and until then , madden gets away with nearly destroying my life . that is not ok . i am still going to blast him for blatantly lying to me . ryan : do n't do it . do n't , please . do n't do it , because he 's not going to agree to anything anyway , right ? i mean -- and you do n't alert the enemy and -- until you have everything you need , all the ammo . so just give me some time , please , to get some more ammo . all right ? because just suspecting him of unethical behavior -- that 's not going to be enough . we need some proof . even erica -- erica hired tad to find something on the guy , and he could n't find anything , so it 's not going to be easy . but you have to promise me now -- promise me that you 're not going to confront him until we have some solid evidence to nail him . [ scene_break ] [ `` new beginnings `` theme plays ] [ applause ] erica : thank you . thank you so much . thank you . and welcome to a very special `` new beginnings . `` today i 'd like to introduce you to my very special guest . a living legend , a master with a scalpel , and a self - proclaimed dream weaver . ladies and gentlemen , allow me to introduce my very special guest , the world 's leading fertility expert , dr. greg madden . [ applause ] greg : well , thank you , erica . it 's a great honor to be here with you . and everything you said about me -- 100 % correct . erica : well , let 's get right down to business , shall we , dr. madden ? when did you first decide that you were god ? greg : i 've always known i was superior to others . when i was a small child , i started doing experiments on small animals . by the time i was 9 , i had created my first litter of test - tube kittens . erica : you must have harmed a great many animals on your road to becoming an expert in your craft . tell me , did you ever feel any remorse ? greg : well , the craft that i was perfecting was the power to create life . erica : so , as long as you were getting what you wanted , the pain you caused your victims was irrelevant ? greg : that is correct . erica : and what about your son , josh ? you gave him life without any regard to others . greg : i wanted a child . you were having a child you did n't want . waste not , want not . i see no controversy there . erica : so you felt entitled to snatch the embryo from my body for the sake of science and for your own personal gratification without my knowledge or my consent ? greg : absolutely . erica : this was a criminal act , dr. madden . [ greg coughs ] greg : no . it would have been a waste of my god - given talents if i had -- [ coughing ] erica : i notice you 're clearing your throat . have some more of my tea . you do n't like my tea very much . i 'm sorry , i made it -- i made it just for you . [ coughing ] erica : well , you know , this has just been my very favorite show , ever . and i do n't know about you , but i see a very , very bright future . and i want to thank you , dr. madden , for helping me show my audience exactly how justice is done . yes . [ coughing ] erica : i would ask you for a final word , but it looks like time is up . [ cheers and applause ] [ sniff ] you know me . [ scene_break ] babe : that was -- that was fun . j.r. : you were awesome . amazing , you -- it was perfect . i got to have more . babe : oh , and you think i do n't want more ? i would do anything and give anything to stay in this bed with you all day . and i have to say , the floor -- that was definitely in the top three . j.r. : well , you know , that could be arranged . babe : yeah , but i have to go to work . j.r. : all right , fine , have it your way . but you know you finally got unlimited access to little a . you 're just going to leave him alone all day while you sit in the office ? babe : no . little a is going with me . winnie is going to play with him while i do my work . and at lunch , we 're all going to the park . j.r. : fusion 's not going to be any fun . babe : hmm . j.r. : kendall 's just going to make sure that you 're ostracized , ignored , and condescended to . you sure you 're ready for that ? babe : yeah . you did all those things to me and i stuck it out . and i got a pretty happy ending , if i do say so myself . janet from another planet barry bonds my head into oblivion . still standing . so , you should n't be asking if i am ready for kendall , j.r. you should be asking if kendall is ready for me . [ scene_break ] kendall : since when do you defend ryan ? zach : i said i understand where he 's coming from . i did n't say you should give him what he wants . it 's your baby , your body . kendall : ok , well , what happens if i go into labor and i still do n't know what to do ? zach : well , then you 'll know after . maybe a day after , a week after . it 'll happen . kendall : well , what if i never decide ? zach : maybe you already have . you 'll know . just for now , tell lavery and madden to give you some room . some breathing room . the readiness is all . kendall : yeah . zach : hey . you had a life before you were pregnant . you miss it ? kendall : are you kidding me ? i 'm salivating at the thought . zach : then why do n't you start living it , right now ? [ scene_break ] erica : hi . may i come in ? greg : oh , erica , what an unexpected surprise . erica : well , i know i should have called first . but this -- this really wo n't take long . well , first -- first , i 'd just like to say how very glad i am that you stopped by the other day . and we have erased the past and we 've started fresh . greg : well , i feel absolutely the same way . erica : yeah . actually , i 'm here also because i have a favor to ask you . am i really about to say this , given our sordid history on the subject ? greg , would you consider being a guest on `` new beginnings `` ? greg : why , erica , i 'd be absolutely delighted . erica : really ? oh , that 's fantastic . i -- i just never expected you to say yes . i mean , not so quickly , anyway . but i 'm so glad that you did . oh , greg , i just have the most unique show planned for you . you 're just going to die . [ scene_break ] kendall : do you think i can read your mind ? if you stand there and stare long enough , i 'll get the answer ? zach : i gave you an answer . kendall : no , you said -- you told me to stop loving you . and i asked if you can stop loving me . i 'm still waiting to find out . zach : i will love you until the day i die . i told you that . kendall : i do n't know what to do with that , zach . what does that mean ? tell me what that means . does that mean , `` nice knowing you , kendall `` ? or `` please do n't give up on us `` ? well , tell me what you mean by that . do you mean `` please hang on to us , `` or -- or `` go `` ? i do n't know . i do n't understand this . zach : what words do you need me to say to you to make yourself feel better ? tell me , and i will say them . kendall : i need to hear whatever it takes to put the pieces together and get us back to where we were before . whatever it takes just to make me trust you again . i do n't know the words , zach . i do n't know . i just know that i need you to fix what you broke , and i need you to do it now . kendall : hello , hello . i know it 's been a long time . i 'm sure you all have missed me . but guess who 's back . [ scene_break ] babe : yes , guess who . you look surprised to see me . kendall : yeah , yeah , i am , but there you are . you 're back . well , you know what this means , do n't you , babe ? one of us has to go . [ scene_break ] ryan : so i guess we have to dig up whatever dirt we can on madden , but something solid . not myths or urban legends or anything like that . julia : as a nurse , i am privy to a scoop that not even a top detective like tad martin has access to . ryan : well , then start digging . and just know that whatever happens , i got your back . come on . [ scene_break ] greg : finally , a guest on `` new beginnings . `` i 'm very flattered . erica : and i just ca n't wait to sit you down in my guest chair . greg : well , this is very exciting . so you have a unique show planned for me ? i ca n't wait to hear about it . erica : oh , my goodness , my tea . i completely forgot . well , i guess that 's money out the window . i mean , i 've already had three cups this morning , and enough is enough . would you like it ? greg : oh , that 's all right . i can make tea here , thank you . erica : oh , no , please , please , take it . it 's something i have n't even touched . it 's -- it 's still warm . please . i 'd hate to see it go to waste . greg : well , thank you . this is quite the treat . [ next_on ] babe : bianca and i have moved on . why ca n't you , kendall ? kendall : because i 'm evil . take the hint and be afraid . dixie : david , please do n't do this . david : care to speak up , prove to them i 'm not lying . j.r. : give me the phone .

julia informs ryan that she got a second opinion from another doctor who told her that madden 's conclusion that she could not conceive is completely wrong . they conclude that madden lied to her as well as lying to kendall . and they are ready to figure out what his agenda is . erica is ready to drug greg with more tea and wants to kill him . josh is not certain if he wants to trust his father or not and still does not know the secret . babe is ready to get back with jr and be unafraid of kendall at fusion . kendall tells zach she needs his help on whether to `` side `` with the bad ryan or the bad dr. madden and admits she does not trust either one of them . zach seems very indecisive and tells her she needs to make her own decision about which one to choose to trust .
