"Before Janet could let her stinky little friend out of his cage, Marian stormed out to the rose garden and began accusing Janet of breaking into her house and stealing something of major importance to her. Janet got nervous and said that she was never in Marian's house and besides Marian doesn't have anything that she wants anyway. Well when Janet issued that last few words, Marian used it to imply that Janet really was in her house. Marian threatened to tell Jack about Janet's breaking and entering if she didn't return what she stole. Janet dared Marian to spill the beans adding that Marian would only incriminate herself because soon Jack would learn that she was harboring a fugitive. Just as Jack's name was being batted back and forth he strolled out in to the garden and asked Janet if he could have a few words in private with Marian. Jack asked Marian where she had gone on vacation and if she knew where Jonathan was hiding. Marian denied knowing where the elusive Kinder was, leading Jack to warn Marian that she had better stick around town.
The party was now in full swing. Brooke and Phoebe arrived followed shortly thereafter by Adam and Liza and Tad and Gloria. Tad walked around like a zombie, saying that he hasn't slept in days. Of course drowning himself in coffee and other caffeinated beverages probably isn't helping his cause any.
Hayley and Mateo tried to escape the party, but Stuart begged them to at least stick around for a little bit. In the end they agreed to stay around, but they were doing it to be social and not for Skye.
Tad approached Liza and asked her if she knew that his explanation of bumping in to Marian in St. Justin was the truth. Liza sort of chuckled and said that she knows better than to think that Tad would celebrate a new divorce with her mother.
Hayley and Mateo broke the news to Adam that they were now the happy owners of a bar. Adam gave his usual grimace. You know the one. The one were he tries to pretend like he's happy when he's really on the verge of exploding? He was under the false supposition that Hayley had invested 100% of the capital into the project, but he was quickly corrected and told that it was a fifty-fifty venture. And before Adam could suggest that Enchantment would suffer in the deal, Mateo explained that he would be in charge of the bar's day to day operation and Hayley would maintain her position at the cosmetics company.
Phoebe was disappointed to learn that the party was not for a rising artist. She said that she misses her weekly dose of art because she can't bear to go to the gallery since Pierce left town. As she said this she gave Brooke a look, but Brooke wasn't about to let her Aunt Pheebes know how badly she felt about Pierce's departure.
Janet told Erica that she had not been able to spring the skunk because she was interrupted by Marian. Erica instantly ushered Janet outside where the two put their heads together to come up with another plan of action. Erica said that Janet needs to get the skunk loose---and soon. As the two were scheming, Phoebe and Brooke walked outside and began praising Erica and her gardener for a superb rose garden. Janet sneaked away and let the skunk loose. A few seconds later, Phoebe gasped and said that she saw a skunk lurking in the garden. Everyone quickly went inside to get out of harm's (or spray's) way.
Stuart led the party in a toast. He introduced his niece to the party-goers, saying that she has been through a hellish year and that he hopes she will find happiness in Pine Valley and want to stick around for a while. One by one others lifted their glasses in honor of Skye. From Scott's toast to "family" to Erica's for "getting even." But out of the corner of her eyes, Skye noticed that neither Matt nor Hayley participated in the toast. After the toast was completed, she asked them why they didn't participate. She said she didn't blame them and said that they were very big for sticking around at a party for her. Skye seemed genuinely happy about the fete... until she overheard that all of those in attendance were lured to the event through a lie about the party being for an unknown artist. Skye blew up. She asked Edmund if he was told who the party was for. Seeing that Skye was obviously hurt, he lied and said that Stuart had told him that the party was in her honor.
Gloria took Tad home to his house. Tad, still the walking dead, stumbled into his bedroom and passed out half on-half off of the bed. Gloria looked at him (as a funny little ditty played in the background) and shook her head.
Marian and Janet were not done feuding yet. Janet told Marian that she will not see Jonathan again. Why? Janet said that Jonathan loved her. She added that he proposed to her and then left her high and dry. Marian could not believe the story and headed to tell Jack that Janet was up to her old tricks again. Janet reminded Marian that she is looking at time in Statesville herself for hiding that wacky fugitive Jonathan in her house. Marian stormed off into the house.
Dimitri asked Janet if he could speak with her. He said that a room at the Valley Inn had been arranged for her and that he'd like her to be his guest there for as long as she'd like. Janet unhappily accepted and went off to pack her things. Later Dimitri told Erica that he wants to spend the night with her--and tomorrow night and the night after that and, well you get the picture. Erica said that Dimitri can't possibly come back to Linden House."
