"Hayley came to in the hospital bed and asked< Ryan what happened. He told her he had found her passed out at Trevor and Janet's house, and had brought her to the hospital. Ryan assured Hayley he will always be there to help her. Outside the room, Gillian anxiously asked Jake if Hayley was OK. Jake explained that she will be all right, but will be staying overnight for observation, adding that Ryan was with Hayley. Gillian's face fell, and she went to phone Mateo and tell him about Hayley, but he wasn't home. Then Adam came rushing in, demanding to know about his daughter. Jake filled him in, saying that in addition to malnourishment and exhaustion, Hayley had been under a lot of stress lately and hadn't been eating or sleeping. "Hayley should fill you in on the details," Jake told Adam, who thanked Jake for notifying him that Hayley was in the hospital. Jake said he'd want to know if there were anything wrong with his daughter.
Adam went to Hayley's side and asked her what happened, but didn't buy her answer that she forgot breakfast and skipped lunch. "Malnourishment and dehydration aren't caused by skipped meals," he frowned. Adam, thinking he was to blame for Hayley's condition, told her that he thought fixing the custody hearing was what she and Mateo wanted. Hayley assured him it wasn't his fault. So what caused the stress Jake mentioned, he queried. Was it something to do with Mateo?
Outside in the hallway, Ryan was anxiously pacing as Mateo burst in and yelled at Ryan to get out of his way. Ryan told him that he wasn't going anywhere near Hayley. "Try doing what's best for her," he angrily told Mateo. Jake intervened, telling them to keep the noise down or take it somewhere else. He reassured Mateo that Hayley would be all right, she just needed sleep and rest. Ryan explained to Mateo how he had found Hayley. "What was she drinking?" asked a suspicious Mateo. "It's not alcohol, it's you that is the problem," Ryan shot back at him. Mateo yelled that he did not sleep with Raquel - as Adam emerged from Hayley's room in time to hear those words! He lunged at Mateo, "You cheated on my daughter?!" Ryan grabbed at Adam to stop him from attacking Mateo. "You've got it wrong, and it's none of your business!" Mateo yelled at Adam. "Everything concerning my daughter is my business," Adam replied, "And she's off limits to you!" Jake angrily told everyone to calm down, and allowed Ryan to go back in to see Hayley. "Why is HE allowed to go in?" Mateo angrily demanded, scowling at Jake. Jake said he had sedated Hayley and it was in her best interests for Mateo not to see her. Mateo then accused Adam of paying Jake off. "I'm not leaving till I see my wife!" Adam retaliated, "She is not your wife! She is not obligated to you in any way! You have no claim on her. You're leaving NOW!" Gillian was listening to all this from a distance. Adam then called security to come and throw Mateo out of the hospital. Mateo angrily shrugged off the guard and made his exit, escorted by two other guards who saw him out of the door. Adam thanked Jake for his stance and Jake told him he did what he had to do. "And so will I," muttered Adam. He spotted an intern and slipped him some cash to stay on after his shift and make sure Mateo didn't get in to see Hayley. But then Gillian quietly brought Mateo in, and he convinced her he needed to see Hayley, who was sleeping fitfully, then called Mateo's name in her sleep.
Meanwhile at the Glamorama, Myrtle interviewed and hired a new manicurist, a giggling blonde named Tiffany. She and Becca are introduced and soon become friends. Greenlee's grandmother, Millicent, showed up for an appointment, and greeted Greenlee who had just finished a session with Sven the masseur. Greenlee and her grandmother discussed Scott as a prospect for Greenlee to pursue. Becca watched and listened. Scott showed up and invited Becca to lunch and a swim, but she turned him down until Myrtle gave her a pep talk - and she saw Greenlee planning to move in on Scott! Before they went in to swim, Scott suggested they should put sunblock on each other, but Becca got nervous and asked Scott to take her back to work.
Marian arrived in a flourish, wearing her flowered hat and waving a photo album of her and Stuart's trip to England and the Royal Garden Party. She proudly showed her pictures to Millicent who perked up at the sight of Stuart with Prince Charles, whom Stuart had invited to Pine Valley, a proud Marian told Millicent. But when Stuart showed up to take Marian home, her bubble was burst when Stuart explained that the prince had his picture taken with him because he thought he was Adam! Marian was crushed, and hurried Stuart out of the Glamorama. Greenlee talked Scott into making up a foursome at tennis and Scott agreed, much to Becca's annoyance.
At Wildwind, Edmund demanded to know what David was doing there. Alex quickly told him that she hadn't recognized David at the hospital and he was "gentleman enough" to go along with her. David skirted around any further explanation, but mentioned their past "affiliation." Alex told Edmund that she and David met in England, introduced by a mutual friend - not Sean, she replied to Edmund's question. David hinted there was a mystery about the "self-effacing " Alexandra Devane. He toyed with her, speculating why she hadn't returned to England. Alex said she finds comfort at Wildwind, among Dimitri's friends. David then pushed her for some medical answers, any previous symptoms? etc. "It's been a long day, and I'd rather not mull over the details of my husband's death with you," Alex replied, grabbing the medical book from him.
David was about to leave when Edmund stopped him, demanding to know what was going on. Alex thrust the book at Edmund, "Here, this will explain it." Edmund saw her picture with her medical colleagues. "You're a doctor? Why have you lied all this time?" Alex claimed that the fact wasn't important. David looked pleased with himself and told them he was leaving them to sort everything out, commenting to Edmund that is was so tragic that such a talented doctor couldn't save his brother's life, "even though she was with him in those final moments!"
Edmund was furious with Alex for deceiving him. "It changes everything," he said. "Why couldn't you save him? You couldn't save him, or you wouldn't?" Alex retorted, "What are you suggesting? That I did nothing to help my own husband?"
Edmund accused her, "You had the means to save him or the means to do him in!" Alex told him she did everything she could, but an upset Edmund accused her of lying about everything. Then after Alex reminded Edmund that she was Dimitri's wife, he angrily reminded her of her actions with Dimitri's coffin - which she had refused to open - and brought up the subject of the new will - which would undoubtedly leave everything to her!
My brother trusted you with his life," he said as he angrily threw the medical book. "And now he's dead," storming out to the telephone. "I'm calling Derek Frye and having the police investigate my brother's death," he told Alex. "No, you can't do that," she said, grabbing at the phone. "You want to know the truth - I'll tell you!""
