"Brooke, Janet, Hayley and Mateo came into BJ's after seeing a movie. Brooke innocently mentioned that one version of the book has the murderer not getting away with it. A touchy Janet asked, "What do you mean by that?" But the moment passed, and Brooke and Janet asked the young couple about their wedding plans. "We're going to have a party at SOS," Mateo said. No date is set yet for the ceremony, they said. Janet asked Hayley is she thought her mother had heard about Trevor. Probably not, was Hayley's guess. "Otherwise we'd have seen her on whatever trashy tabloid waved some money at her to talk about her missing brother on the lam," she said. "And if we get one whiff of her before the wedding ceremony, we're eloping!" she added.
At the Martin house, the clan was gathered to toast the groom to be. But Jake noticed that Ruth looked concerned. She pointed out what a whirlwind their romance has been and told Jake she realized how desperate he is to gain custody of Colby. But Jake reassured her that Gillian doesn't feel rushed into a quick wedding. Ruth still questioned whether perhaps Gillian was grateful to him, and had fallen in love with her doctor. "Gillian seems so fragile," she said sadly. "And not long ago she was married to Ryan." But now all she wants is to be a wife and mother, Jake confidently assured his mother. Ruth and Dixie then banished the men from the house, and off they went to Kelly's to toast the lucky groom.
Meanwhile the bride to be was facing Ryan in her bedroom at Wildwind. Ryan frantically tried to convince Gillian that he really loves her and wants to love her with all the passion and fire they had shared in the past. A confused and tearful Gillian yelled at him to get out. He desperately to convince her, but she insisted that she loves Jake and wants to make her life with him. "It's the right thing to do," she insisted. He begged her to think about what she was doing, but Greenlee's words echoed in Gillian's ears.
At the lodge, Edmund made Alex promise she will not leave, despite her fears about her violent and as yet unrevealed past. A knock on the door interrupted them. It was Eugenia, who had heard Ryan's voice in Gillian's room. She begged Edmund to come with her and make him leave. When they arrived at Gillian's room, and Gillian begged Edmund to get Ryan to leave. "This is so wrong," Ryan murmured. "She can't marry Jake when she loves me as much as I love her." His and Gillian's eyes met, but she still insisted he leave. Reluctantly, he allowed Edmund to lead him out.
Eugenia tried to sound out Gillian about her true feelings. "I'm so confused," she whispered in reply. "But all the lies ... Greenlee ... " Eugenia asked if she had confronted Ryan about the Greenlee episode, but Gillian hadn't because she would only get more lies from Ryan, she said. Gillian told Eugenia that Ryan knows the truth about Colby's parentage. "I wonder if he will tell Jake," Eugenia mused. Eugenia left to go to bed, and Edmund came and told Gillian that Ryan had been escorted from the property. He gently asked her if she was sure about the wedding. "I'll support you, no matter what your choice," he told her. "But I saw the way he looks at you and the way you look at him." With those words he left Gillian to herself.
As Janet and the others chatted at their table, Tiffany came in with two of her friends. They start to giggle and make remarks about "the crowbar killer" and "Janet from another planet" when they saw Janet at the nearby table. Janet overheard, but kept silent until she heard them bashing the "ex-cop turned psycho" - Trevor Dillon! Then Janet marched over to the table and demanded that if they have anything to say about her husband, they say it to her face. Her friends gently brought the distraught woman back to their table. Tiffany apologized for her friends and offered Janet a free manicure and massage at the Glamorama. The party broke up, leaving Hayley and Mateo at the table.
Mateo questioned Hayley about Janet, and finally Hayley told him that it was Janet who had killed Sophie. Mateo was less than sympathetic. "She killed Sophie, she almost killed you!" he ranted. "I want you to stay away from her," he demanded. But Hayley told him that Janet will be OK, she's seeing a psychiatrist. Mateo remained unconvinced. They spotted Ryan going up to the bar and Hayley told Mateo that she'd arranged for him to see Gillian in private.
At Mateo's suggestion she went up to the bar to ask how it went. He filled her in on his failure to get Gillian to call off or postpone the wedding. "You have to respect her choice," Hayley gently told him. "I can't," Ryan replied. Jake came over to talk to him. He said his piece: "I know how you feel. But I'll take care of her and let her know every day how much she is loved," and left Ryan to his thoughts.
When Janet and Brooke returned to the Dillon house, a package of mail had been delivered for Brooke. As the envelopes spilled out of the package, Janet spotted handwriting she recognized - Trevor's! She asked Brooke to make some tea, then opened the envelope addressed to Brooke. As she read the words, "I love you so much. I can't wait to hold you in my arms again," a look of horror came into her face. "How long has this been going on," she demanded of Brooke as she came in with the tray of tea. "How long have you been having an affair with my husband?" Brooke was amazed, "What do you mean?" she asked. Janet waved the letter at her. Brooke then explained that Trevor was sending letters for Janet to Brooke's office, and that letter was written for Janet. As Janet read more of the letter, she realized the truth and apologized profusely to Brooke. After Brooke went to bed, Janet locked the door and turned off the lights and turned to see Mirror Janet again. "You believed Brooke?" Mirror Janet taunted her. "The letter was for her! She is trying to steal Trevor and Amanda! You have to stop her - pronto!"
Edmund returned to the lodge and told Alex what had happened with Ryan's visit to Gillian, and told Alex how in love the two had once been. Gillian seems happy with Jake now, Alex said. "Is it possible to have two great loves?" Edmund wondered, and Alex looked thoughtful as she considered his question.
Meanwhile, Gillian couldn't sleep. She lay awake, hearing Ryan's words ringing in her ears, "I'll always love you!"
