"At SOS Ryan and Kendall realized they were now co-workers. They argued a bit about who was hired first then Ryan had an idea. He suggested that he make the drinks and Kendall deliver them and they don't talk to each other. Kendall agreed with this plan. Just then a very drunk and loud Leo stumbled in. He sat down at the bar clutching a bag close to him. He asked Ryan to make him a drink and told him he was celebrating. Ryan asked why, "Did you buy a new pair of leather pants?." Leo said he may write a book about his life with Proteus. Kendall went to a phone and called Bianca, telling her that Leo was at SOS and in trouble. Bianca said she'd be right there. When she arrived she sat down with Leo and tried to talk to him. Leo told Bianca that Vanessa had confessed all of her evil deeds to Maggie when she had her tied up. Bianca was confused and Leo opened his bag and whipped out a folder and told her it was all in there. He said he had every scrap of evidence they have against his mother. To Bianca's horror, Leo said he had stolen it from the DA's office. Leo went on to say he was writing a book about his life with Vanessa/Proteus and he wanted the insiders info on her case, since she'd never told him about being a drug lord. He was upset with himself for not having seen what she was doing and now he wanted to know why she did what she did. Leo said he knew he was probably going to be in trouble for stealing the file. Bianca told him he could fry for this and that he'd better get it back to Jack's office now. He said ok, he had to go think of a plan and grabbed the bag and went to the restroom. Inside the men's room he locked himself in a stall and took out a few papers. He tore them up and flushed them. Meanwhile Bianca thanked Kendall for calling her. Kendall tried to brush it off, saying "Why thank me, now he's your problem!." Bianca told her she was so irritating and that she didn't know why Kendall can't admit that she actually cared. Ryan listened in and was very amused. Bianca went back to her table and Ryan told Kendall that her sister wanted to think the best of Kendall. She tried to twist his words and he just handed her the drink order she needed and went back to work. Leo returned to the table with what's left of the Vanessa file and told Bianca he'd put it back tonight. Bianca said that was too late, he needed to do it before someone realized it was missing. She had a plan and placed a call to Uncle Jack, telling him she needed to see him right away and asked him to meet her at SOS.

Greenlee walked around her loft sadly. She went to the fireplace mantel and opened a box. She removed a Christmas ornament, looked at it then put it back as her father walked into the room. Roger thanked her for letting him move in with her. He admitted to being nervous, since Jackson Montgomery was coming over soon to talk about his involvement with Proteus. Greenlee tried to deny that any charges could be pressed against Roger but he said they had to face reality. He said his public defender told him he could face jail time. Greenlee again offered to pay for a "real lawyer" but he turned her down. Greenlee said she needed her father, especially now. Roger said she deserved so much better than Leo and Jake but Greenlee said it's not about them. A knock on the door interrupted them and Greenlee opened the door to let Jackson in. Jack told Roger and Greenlee the way the DA's office sees Roger's involvement with Proteus, "You aided and abetted a drug trafficker." Greenlee went off, saying her father only did what he did to protect her. After short discussion Jack left. Roger went to the bedroom to call his "legal aid guy." Greenlee went back to her box just as Simone walked in the open door. They threw barbs at each other regarding Leo. Simone told Greenlee that she is not interested in Leo, he's not her type. She didn't understand why Greenlee bought the loft out from under her and was kicking her out. Greenlee said her life was too stressful right now to have her ex-fiancé living in the same building. Simone started to walk out but Greenlee stopped her by demanding her first month's rent "I'm your new landlord now." Simone was confused and Greenlee said if she could cover the rent without Leo, she could stay. Simone said she always figured she'd be paying the rent without Leo's help. She again told Greenlee that she isn't interested in Leo as anything other than a friend. She offered to keep an eye on Leo for Greenlee as Roger walked back into the room. Greenlee introduced them and Simone left. Roger told Greenlee that the DA's office had just called and told him they'd made their decision. They were offering full immunity if he turned state's evidence. Greenlee was thrilled and Roger said the nightmare was over. He went to the bedroom to call his public defender. Greenlee took out the ornament again and remembered when Leo gave it to her. She remembered how they planned their future together that night and looked completely lost. She started to throw the ornament across the room but stopped herself. She sat down on the floor and just stared at the glass globe in her hands.

In Jack's office Chris asked Jack and Agent Hammer to help him back into his wheelchair. Jack then left the office and Agent Hammer said he'd talk to Chris later, but Chris told him angrily that there was nothing left to say. After he left Chris looked at Erica. She said "Ok, let's speed things up. Isn't this where you tell me to get lost?." Chris looked at her and then looked away. They began to argue and he said he was tired of fighting with her and listening to her. Erica promised that there would be no lies or deceptions this time and Chris yelled "There is no this time!." He said he didn't want Erica's help and she knelt in front of him saying she was offering him her love. He said he didn't need it, that he has one person who's treating him the way he needs to be treated right now - Kendall! Erica was stunned and couldn't believe he would trust Kendall before trusting her. Chris said he trusts Kendall and everyone else before her. Erica ran out in tears and bumped into Anna, who offered up a little sympathy. Erica shot her down and left. Anna went in to see Chris and told him he did a good job of running Erica off. She asked why he couldn't accept love from a strong woman like Erica. Chris said there were too many strings attached. Anna said if he wants Erica he'd better get her before Jackson steps in. Chris told her about being taken off the force, that the FBI felt that he was unfit to perform his duties. Anna said she was sorry to hear it. Chris began ranting and yelling about everything wrong in his life. Anna told him it was his pride that was keeping Erica out of his life. "She's not perfect, but neither are you! Why are you turning away from the one thing in your life you could count on?" They argued about Erica some more and then Anna asked if Chris had thought about what his life will be like without Erica in it. Chris snarled at her, wondering if this is how she said thank you after he got her the chief of Police job. Anna said she didn't owe him anything, but he did owe himself and left him alone. Chris sat in his wheelchair and thought about Erica, especially New Year's Eve when they danced in her house. Meanwhile at Enchantment Erica sat alone in her office, thinking about Chris.

Kendall gave Ryan a drink order and waited for him to fill it. Ryan smiled at her and she wondered why. He told her he was amazed at her doing "gainful employment" and then told her she was almost appealing. She returned the off-handed compliment.

Jackson met Bianca at SOS and asked what the emergency was. She tried to pretend that she just hadn't talked to him in a while but Jack reminded her that they'd just had breakfast this morning. He pressed on but his phone rang and he had to take the call. Jack stepped away from the table. Kendall rushed over and asked if she'd caused her problems by getting her involved with Leo's problems. Jack came back and asked Bianca what was going on with Leo.

In Erica's office she stood looking out the window. Chris opened the door and rolled himself in. He said he was sorry and that he was doing his best right now, "Don't ask for anymore than that" and rolled back out. Erica smiled through tears and said "That's a start."

In Jackson's office Leo tried to open the cabinet drawer to put the file back. Finally he got it opened but heard footsteps at the door. He tried to hide but Anna walked in and caught him."
