"On the phone with Dixie, Anna asked what she needed from David. David listened and coughed, so that Anna knew he was there. She turned to face David as she asked Dixie if it had anything to do with the baby she's carrying. David took the phone and spoke with Dixie, telling her that her most recent test results looked good and that she's doing well. David told Dixie that things in Pine Valley were fine and they hung up. Anna went off on David because he didn't tell Dixie about his legal troubles. David said Dixie has her own problems and that he wasn't going to dump more on her. Anna said Dixie could testify for David and help clear him but David refused to even ask her, it wouldn't be good for her heart. This infuriated Anna, who told David she had made up her mind about testifying today. "I'm going to testify against you" she told her husband. She said it wasn't out of spite and not because of Dixie. It was because of their mutual mistrust of each other. David said she was willing to give "us" up but Anna said the thought of testifying against him was killing her. She said she believes in him but that her life was on the line here and that David didn't get that. Anna told David that she never knows where she stands with him and that she can't sacrifice herself for him. "If I save you I lose myself" she said. David was hurt and Anna started to cry and admitted that she could give it all up for love. She begged David to tell her she can trust him but he turned to her and said "I can't." Anna asked if the situation were reversed would he throw it all away for her. David looked at her with sad eyes but didn't say a word. Anna said "No, I didn't think so" and left to go to Jackson's office. David was very upset and made a phone call. He told the person on the other end that there was a change in plans.

Anna arrived at Jack's office as he answered the phone. He got visibly upset and asked "What??? When???." When he hung up he told Anna that there was an accident in the evidence room. All of the physical evidence against David had been destroyed. She stated that meant Jack had to drop the charges but he said no way. Jack said with Jake's sworn testimony and what she was about to tell him they could still put David away for years. Anna said softly to herself, "So David's fate rests in my hands." She stepped out into the hallway for some air and sat on a bench. She thought back to their wedding night when David said she'd acted on instinct to protect him and that he'd never forget it. Anna looked thoughtful and got up, heading back to Jack's office.

JR found Adam in the solarium at the hospital crying. They hugged and Adam told his son that Liza has a tumor in the frontal lobe. JR wondered if the tumor caused Liza to trash his room and be so angry at him all the time. Adam said probably and JR worried that he had made it worse. Adam told him it wasn't his fault as Tad showed up. JR told Tad not to mess with his dad today. Tad said he'd heard about Liza and just stopped by to check on how they were doing. He offered a truce to Adam, who accepted it. Adam asked Tad if JR could stay with him while Liza was ill. Tad of course said yes, if it was ok with JR. JR agreed. Tad told them he and Jamie were going on a camping trip and Adam offered them his private jet and his private cabin. Tad asked JR if that was ok with him and he said yes. Tad asked Adam to help him find Dixie and Adam said he'd get his men on it at once. They went to see Liza and when they all came out of her room Tad commented that she seemed more herself. Tad then told Adam they'd go get JR's things and be on their way, and also reminded Adam to look for Dixie. After JR and Tad left, Adam went to a pay phone and called someone. He told the person that he got Martin out of town, "now you get him out of Chandler Enterprises."

Bianca went to Enchantment to see Erica. Erica was thrilled until Bianca said she only stopped by to pick up her mail. She told her mother she'd filed a change of address with the post office so her mail would start going to Myrtle's. Erica said that was good since the college acceptance letters should start pouring in. Bianca announced there wouldn't be any acceptance letters because she withdrew all of her applications. Erica was horrified and blamed it on Kendall's influence. Bianca said she'd made her own decision but her mother still thought Kendall had something to do with it. Bianca explained that she decided to put off college until she can decide what she wants to do with her life. "I'm just not ready to move on" she told her mother. Erica said she always regretted not going to college. Bianca said she just needed some time, she had a rough senior year, what with her girlfriend being murdered and her own mother thinking she did it. Erica tried to apologize for that but Bianca wasn't willing to listen. Erica told her that no matter how hard she tries to freeze her out, she'll always love her. Bianca said she'd always love her mother too, but their ideas of love were light-years apart and left the office.

Bianca went to the hospital to pick up Maggie, who was released today. Bianca told her about the run in she had with her mother over college and Maggie was appalled at Bianca's attitude. She said she'd love to trade places with Bianca and have a mother who cared so much. "Cry me a river Bianca!" she told her friend. Bianca said Erica cared too much but Maggie told her she was lucky to have a mom. "Look around, do you see mine anywhere?" The girls left the hospital and Bianca dropped Maggie off at David's suite at the hotel. David and Maggie discussed David's legal troubles and she tried to be positive for him. David was less optimistic and gave her the key to the suite. He told her to move in, since the month was paid for. Then he offered a bit of advice "If you ever feel the skeletons from this family's closet breathing down your neck, run like hell" and he left.

When Anna returned to Jackson's office she was shocked to find David speaking to Jackson. David turned to her and said he cut a deal and was taking prison time.

Kendall and Greenlee discussed the offer from Enchantment. Ryan piped in, saying there had to be strings attached. Kendall asked for details and Greenlee showed her the Exposer's front cover. She said it was bad press for Erica and Enchantment. She went on, saying they want Kendall to write a retraction. Kendall went off, saying Erica used her and every word was true in that article and that Erica deserved what she gets. Greenlee said "Sell yourself out, you've done it before! Go for the gold!" and Kendall slapped her across the face. Greenlee went after Kendall but Ryan broke them apart. Greenlee relayed a message from Erica, saying that if Kendall retracted the Exposer story Erica would pay Kendall an amount in the high five figures. Kendall wondered why Erica would just give her cash, and Greenlee snidely commented that it wasn't like Erica could offer her a job at Enchantment, Kendall didn't have any business sense at all and absolutely no cosmetic savvy. This of course ticked Kendall off. Greenlee handed her a retraction all ready written, all Kendall had to do was sign it. Kendall tore it up. Greenlee said she wouldn't get another chance and left. Kendall turned to Ryan, grinning from ear to ear."You didn't think I had it in me but I just walked away from a set up. Ryan thought Kendall did a good thing but Kendall said now she had her mother right where she wanted her, "Under my thumb!" She told Ryan that she's in the catbird seat now. Ryan said maybe she was being set up but Kendal said no and that now she could finally set the record straight. "I finally have all the cards!" she told Ryan. He told her to drop them and walk away for self preservation. Kendall said not hardly but Ryan told her to forget revenge for one day. He dared her to go to the ball game with him and she took him up on it. He said he'd be back later to pick her up and left. Kendall went back into the house and waited for him to drive away. Then she picked up her purse and headed out the door.

At Enchantment Greenlee rushed in to tell Erica about her trap for Kendall. Erica demanded details and when Greenlee explained what she had done Erica wasn't impressed. Greenlee said she used strategy and reveres psychology but Erica threw a fit and said Bianca was slipping away and it was going to be all Greenlee's fault. Greenlee was confused and tried to explain more of what she said to Kendall. Erica doubted if Kendall would take the bait but Greenlee said Kendall was totally predictable and that she'll come to work at Enchantment and think it was all her idea. Erica was finally impressed but said she'd believe it when she saw it. Just then Kendall came in and said she was there to help her mother get out of a jam. Erica said she would appreciate Kendall's help. Kendall said she had a counter offer to Greenlee's offer, that she wanted more than money. She wants a job at Enchantment, she told her mother. Not just any job thought, Kendall wants Greenlee's job. Erica and Greenlee were both surprised."
