"Ryan escorts Kendall into his room at the Pine Cone after coming from the park. Kendall suggests that he let the dumping begin. Ryan reveals that he didn't want to do what he needed to do at the park. Kendall tells him to get it over with. Ryan says that he's not dumping her, unless she doesn't shut up. Ms. Hart zips her lips as Ryan tells her that she's a reactive and little nuts, but he still wants her. She asks why. Lavery says that he really needs to see her happy. He finds her amazing when they are alone and she's not complaining about how Erica and Bianca don't care about her. An insulted Kendall says that she's entitled to feel the way she does. Before she can tell him what to do with his opinion, he kisses her. The couple lay on his bed and Ryan asks how he can make her happy. Kendall thinks she knows, but she really doesn't. Ryan suggests that she make a list of all that she wants and he will help her with all of her suggestions to make her happy. When Kendall asks why he cares, Ryan suggests that she just trust him. But how, Kendall queries. Ryan kisses her again and suggests she just sleep.

Outside Erica's house, she and Chris embrace. "You've come back to me," says Erica. Chris admits that Ryan steered him in her direction by reminding him that his rules have cost him everything. Tonight, he's breaking his rules and then tells Ms. Kane that he wants her. Erica suggests that they spend the night together. Chris pulls her in for a kiss. After a moment, Chris pulls back and asks if this is Bianca's first night back home. Erica says that he's correct. Mr. Stamp feels that it wouldn't be right for them to make love right now. Erica informs him that she wants him to stay in the guest bedroom. Chris asks if she wants him there because of what Kendall did. She says no, but reveals that she has considered calling the cops on her. Something needs to be done because she's unstable. Chris informs her that the gun wasn't loaded. Erica thinks her daughter is still troubled and wonders why she pulled the gun on her. Chris says the young woman is troubled. Erica says that not everyone is forgivable. Stamp reveals that he hates what Kendall did tonight, but he also hates lies and people who lie. He has decided to step away from the situation and not judge anything. Erica thanks him. Chris tells her that he thinks about making love to her-in the future. They kiss. After things get too hot, Chris asks if she should check the guest room to see if its ready. Erica says that's a good idea. Before heading upstairs, Erica says that he's glad he's thinking ahead for them-so does she.

She tells Simone to meet her in her Revlon office tomorrow at 9:00. Simone says that she needs some rest. Greenlee says that she may not if she gets a midnight call from her secret lover.

At Tad's house, Opal tells her son that she can't believe that Jamie has stopped talking. Tad says that since Vanessa grabbed him at the hospital, he has barely said two words. He even had to get J.R. to come over to spend the night with Jamie. Opal asks how J.R. is doing since Dixie's out of town. Tad says that J.R. is the only one who has heard from Dixie since her abrupt departure, except for David. Opal comments that if Dixie wants to be alone, he should leave it at that. Tad says that Dixie is his life. Opal corrects him and says that Dix is a part of his life, but he has a whole other world in Pine Valley. Tad says that he at least has Jamie and J.R., even though he's been a bad father as of late. Opal disagrees and feels that he'll do right by his son. Tad says that he's been unable to let go since Dixie's left. Opal hugs her son.

At their room in the Valley Inn, Anna and David lay together. David says that he has thought about their future and has thought about something that they both may want-a baby.

David knows this, but is still up for the challenge. Anna says that she has a new job and already has a grown daughter. David thinks that doesn't matter. Anna says they're at different places. David asks if she's totally opposed of having a child. She wishes he mentioned it before they tied the knot. David says the two issues are separate. Anna asks him for one good reason that they should have a baby. "Love" answers David. Anna suggests that they sleep on it. Anna lays back down on David's chest to think about her husband's suggestion.

It's the next day, and Ryan sleeps alone in bed as Kendall stares at him. Kendall sneaks out of the Pine Cone without being noticed.

Bianca replies that that there's no action going on in her room. Chris hints that the guest bed was very comfortable. Bianca insists that they don't have to G-rate their love life just because she's back at the house. Chris says that their relationship hasn't reached that stage-yet. Bianca asks if this was a slumber party. Erica admits that she didn't want to be alone because Kendall pulled a gun on her at the Valley Inn last night. Bianca asks if she's okay. Chris comments that the gun wasn't loaded. Erica insists that she didn't know that last night. Chris says that Kendall was trying to make a point.

She reminds Greenlee about the photo shoot to announce her arrival at Revlon. Greenlee thanks Casey for everything as she leaves. Simone says that she needs to catch up on her copywriting skills. Greenlee insists that copywriting and advertising are the same thing and that she has the job in the palm of her hand. She tells Simone that she needs her by her side since her wedding is going to be a major media event. Greens later says that she finally has a female friend that isn't after what's hers.

Simone tells Roger that she's in Greenlee's office and she'll have to call back later. Simone asks for job tips as Greenlee asks for dirt on her new man. Simone says that it's just a guy and that they haven't done anything. Greenlee thinks it's obvious that it's someone she knows and continues to press Simone for details. Simone blows up and tells Greens to just stop it.

Kendall tells Erica that she's there to talk to Bianca. "Over my dead body," Erica spats. She almost slams the door in her face, but Chris holds the door and asks Bianca if she wants to speak to her sister. Bianca says she would like to speak to Kendall-in private. Chris takes Erica outside the living room and tells her that Bianca can handle her sister. Erica feels that she will try to make Bianca feel sorry for her. Chris feels that Erica doesn't trust Bianca as much as she should. Otherwise, she would've informed her why Kendall pulled a gun on her. Erica insists what she did to Kendall was no excuse for her daughter to threaten to shoot her.

Anna does work on her laptop and David asks her if she's thought about the baby issue they discussed last night. Anna asks why is he so gun-ho about having a child. David wants to create a new life. Anna says that they should wait until they get a more permanent living arrangement. David says that now is the right time since Vanessa's in jail and he feels that a new life in the world would just be the icing on their bliss. In the middle of their conversation, there's a knock at their door. It's a bellhop with an overnight letter. Anna is positive that the letter's from Dixie. She wants to leave him alone, but he wants her to stay as he reads the letter. Dixie thanks him for all that he has done for her. She mentions that she is now in her third trimester, which is a miracle under her circumstances. She informs him that she's going to tell Tad the truth about the baby and beg for forgiveness and for Tad to take her back so they can raise their child together. Anna asks David how he feels about that. He hopes they find the same happiness with Tad as he's found with his new wife. David continues to read and mentions Dixie congratulating him on his marriage to Anna. The new Mrs. Hayward asks how she knew. David reveals that he had to monitor her heart condition every few weeks via phone, and he told her their news after her induction as Chief of Police. Anna comments that their marriage was a business arrangement and now suddenly, they're discussing having babies. David says that they've gotten to a new place in their relationship and it's real. He knows that she can feel the change in their relationship. Anna isn't sure he can keep up with his needs. David's insulted that Anna thinks a child is something else that he needs from her. Anna tries to explain her comment, but an irate David heads to the door. She asks where he's going. He tells her that he needs some warm air since it's cold in there.

Tad gets his mail and sees a special letter. Just then, Opal comes in with Jamie. Tad asks him if he had a good night's sleep. A silent Jamie smiles and nods his head. Opal mentions that J.R. is already eating breakfast in the other room. While Jamie's back is turned, Tad signals Opal to get Jamie out of the room. Opal suggests to Jamie that he go in and eat breakfast with J.R. Jamie leaves the room and Opal comments that she spent the night so that he and the kids could have a big breakfast. However, the letter he's got seems to have spoiled his appetite. Tad reveals that the letter is from Dixie. He sits down on the sofa and Opal decides to give him his privacy. When Tad says that he wants her there, she hightails it beside him on the sofa. Tad opens the letter and it reads "Darling Tad." He asks Opal if that's what it really says. Opal says it does and urges him to continue reading. In the letter, Dixie apologizes for leaving without saying goodbye and admits to missing seeing him. She reveals that she has a secret that she had to keep until now. Since enough time has passed that nothing can be done to change her condition, she can now reveal her secret to him. Tad pauses and Opal asks him what's wrong. "She's.....pregnant," a shocked Tad announces. Opal's equally shocked over the news. Tad continues and reads that Dixie didn't tell him about the pregnancy because she knew he would try to stop her from having the baby because of her heart. Now that she's in her final trimester, he can't stop her from having the baby. The doctors say that she is out of danger and the doctors are very optimistic. She tells Tad that she had a sonogram and an amniocentesis-and that the baby is a girl. Opal is happy over the news.

"Can you?" asks Opal.
