"Skye returned to Holidays to see if someone had found her lost purse. Skye confessed to Hayley that she thinks Tanner is up to no good. She said that he was the last person she had spoken to the night before and said that the missing money also disappeared under Tanner's watchful eye. Hayley told her sister that there were other robberies in the area recently and it does not mean that Tanner was involved. Tanner scurried over to Skye and forked over her purse. He said that he would have contacted her sooner, but he did no know her phone number. Skye inspected her purse and "guessed" that nothing was missing. Skye found a table and tended to some of her personal matters. Tanner walked over and offered her some coffee "on the house." He expressed disappointment that they had gotten off on the wrong foot and asked if he could try to make things up to Skye. Before Tanner could plead his case, Skye's cell phone started ringing. Skye answered the phone by saying "Yes?" rather than "Hello." Andy told Skye that she always says "yes," but never acts on it. He reminded her that they have a date to keep. Skye told Andy that she does not like being pressured. Andy warned Skye that she was making him unhappy and his unhappiness would make it very easy to tell Dimitri about Skye's dirty deed. Skye grabbed her purse and darted off to the clinic. Hayley asked Tanner if everything was okay. He shrugged his shoulders and told Hayley that he was going to head down to the police station to work with the sketch artist.
Dimitri woke from his nightmare and told Erica that he had something important to tell her. Erica nodded her head. She said that he had already told her about the genetic disorder that could effect the baby and that she had been given a clean bill of health. Of course, that is not what Dimitri wanted to tell her. As Dimitri prepared to drop his bomb, Peggy entered the room and put the brakes on Dimitri's crash course with disaster. Erica thought that it might be a good idea to grab a bite to eat and allowed Peggy and Dimitri to visit with each other.
Outside the room, Erica told Joe that she wants to take Dimitri home with her because she "is the only medicine he needs." Joe laughed, but said that it would be best for Dimitri to rest in the hospital for a little while onger. Ruth waltzed over and asked Erica how her trip to Seattle went. Erica told them that Bianca offered only nonchalance to Erica' "big news." Ruth agreed that it is much easier to handle crying than an emotionless response.
"She has no idea what she's in for," Dimitri sighed. Peggy placed Erica's jubilance on her unborn baby and said that Erica has never been happier. She said that Edmund had to opportunity to tell Erica about Dimitri's affair, but that he could not bear to ruin her happiness. Dimitri seemed shocked that his brother did not enact revenge. Still, Dimitri insisted that he must be the one to tell Erica about his night with Maria. The news never has to reach Erica, at least that is what Peggy suggested. She said that there is no reason to tell Erica what happened.
A few seconds later, Erica burst back into the room and told Dimitri that she wanted to be filled in on everything that she missed while she was gone. She also said that a special visitor would be flying in to visit him. It didn't require much brain power to figure out that Bianca was the special guest. Erica darted off to the airport to pick up her daughter. After Erica had left, Peggy told Dimitri that he cannot tell Erica about his affair with Bianca around. Dimitri disagreed. He said that there is never a good time to tell of infidelity and insisted that he will tell Erica of his affair.
Jack and Janet entered the courtroom together. Jack gave Janet some legal advice on what she could expect in the hearing to determine if she violated the restraining order that Trevor holds against her. He said that Janet could be facing jail time and most certainly a fine. Janet thanked Jack for his help and asked him why he is being nice to her. Trevor overheard the discussion and demanded to know the same thing. Trevor denounced Jack as a friend and implied that he is still trying to get back at him for taking Laurel away from him. Jack let out a deep breath of frustration and told Trevor that this is a preliminary hearing and that he wants to make sure Janet knows all of her legal rights. Trevor blasted Janet for relating misconstrued facts to Jack and trying to warp his mind. Janet began to panic. She asked Trevor why he was taking such a cold stance against her after they had "made progress." Trevor sneered as he told Janet that he once shared a cigar with an Army Death Squad Leaders, the enemy, in Guatemala. He said that after they finished smoking, he "blew his brains out." He told Janet that she might have found his soft spot., but that she should not expect his continued niceness. Jack told Trevor that he cannot protect Amanda from learning about her real mother---no matter what he thinks.
The judge entered the courtroom and didn't offer any "soft spots" to Janet. After Janet admitted that she violated the restraining order, the judge was ready to rule against her. The judge said that she is not ruling on whether Janet was doing what was in the best interest of "the minor child," but was there to decide if the court ordered restraining order was violated. Just as things looked their bleakest for Janet, Trevor called out that he wanted the restraining order lifted. He said that Janet is not a threat to Amanda. The presiding judge told Janet that she had better avoid all future brushes with the law.
Trevor tried to escape the courtroom, but Janet stopped him. She asked him why he had helped her out. He said that with the restraining order lifted, she will not have to hide in bushes to get a peek of Amanda. Janet thanked him, but he brushed her off and continued on his way.
Andy arrived at the hospital and asked Joe if he could be directed to Mr. Marick's room. He said that he had some urgent business to discuss. From around the corner, Skye watched in horror.
Maria asked Edmund why his bags were packed. "I'm leaving you," he replied. Edmund took Sam upstairs and tucked him into bed. When he returned downstairs, he told a story of photo he had seen. In the photo, a former fairy tale castle had been leveled by a bomb blast. But in the middle of the destruction, there was a cuckoo clock that cuckoo-ed non-stop. He compared that photo to Sam's nursery. He said that "a million years ago," Sam's nursery was Dimitri's play room. Edmund was never allowed into that room because he was part of the help staff, but one day he sneaked into the room and listened to some music. He said that for a few hours he felt like the world was his. Then he felt a cold shadow creep across the room. He turned and saw Hugo Marick's smug smile and knew that he was going to be snapped back into reality. Edmund nearly chuckled as he told Maria that "this house is a curse." Maria was finally allowed to speak and told Edmund that everything in Wildwind belonged to him---including her. She told him that she loved him and that he is the only man she has ever loved. She begged him not to leave her. Edmund turned his back on his wife and took several steps away from her before turning to face her. "What do you want from me?" he asked. Maria had to race upstairs to tend to Sam because he started crying. In her absence, Edmund reflected on how he met Maria and how he fell in love with her. In his recollections, he recalled his promise to Maria to "always stand beside [her] no matter what" she does. Maria returned and again asked Edmund not to leave. He rose from the sofa and picked up his bags. He walked towards the door before stopping to speak. He told Maria that he would move his things down the hall and that he would not leave."
