"No love on today's show. Pierce and Brooke were both stunned when Adam broke the news of Janet's arrest. They both insisted that they believed she had changed her ways. Pierce rushed off to be by Janet's side, but he didn't provide much support for his friend. Janet explained that she would never kill Laurel and that she made a vow to herself that she would never be behind bars again. Pierce said he understood, but that the wife of his friend had just been shot and killed, so he couldn't quite be sympathetic either. After breaking the news, Adam returned to the WRCW studio to discuss whether or not the taped footage of Laurel's death would be aired or not. After some long discussion, everyone agreed that the footage could be aired as long as it was done in a way that would speak out against violence. Liza had already taken the initiative to create promos for the show and was preparing to wire them to the affiliates. While viewing the edited footage of the show, Liza (supposedly) broke down and needed a comforting hug from Tad. Dixie was still outraged by the incidents of the show and left her husband's side to attend a rally against violence and Janet. Noah managed to persuade Taylor to put down the gun and he and Julia made there way off to the docks. Hayley showed up at Mateo's, needing support from her friend because of losing her Aunt. Just as Hayley told Matt how Laurel was responsible for bringing them together again, Taylor came knocking at the door. Hayley hid in a spare room in Mateo's apartment and Taylor busted in blabbing about how Noah and Julia used her to escape. Just as she was getting into things, Julia called and explained the real story. Julia also pleaded with her brother to get Taylor to crack as soon as possible. Then Noah and Julia boarded a freighter bound for parts unknown and sailed away from Pine Valley."
