"Leo sat on the living room floor in the loft, working on the laptop computer. Suddenly loud classical music began playing and Greenlee strolled in wearing a towel over her head and carrying a bunch of celery. Leo realized she was checking out processional music for their wedding and told her they weren't having any "fuddy duddy" music. He got up to look for music himself and on the computer screen read a search for "Count DuPres." A knock at the door brought Roger into the loft. Leo turned on very loud rock music and said he was looking for music to walk down the aisle by. Roger suggested they do it "mosh-pit" style and be handed across by the wedding guests. Then Roger told Greenlee he had news that will make her wedding day complete. He said he received a call from her mother and that she is very excited about Greenlee's wedding and is planning on attending. Roger then said that they talked about getting back together. Greenlee was thrilled but Leo was skeptical. Roger left.

Simone was all dressed up and went to answer a knock at her door. She was surprised to find her father there. He walked in and said he was there to give her rent money. Simone was a bit embarrassed to have to ask for money and her father did his best to make her feel unworthy. He asked if she had a job yet and she said she was helping a friend at Revlon while she looked for a job in her field. He was not impressed and said a job at Revlon was "too far off her career path." Simone said it was just temporary and then explained that she has a roommate to help with the rent. She went on to say the roommate is a lawyer and a male. Her father grilled her about Trey and then said he just wants what's best for her and wants her to live up to her potential. He handed her the rent check and left, leaving Simone feeling very down on herself. Another knock on her door brought Roger into the apartment. They kissed but Simone pulled back quickly. She said she was a bit upset that they couldn't go out tonight, that they had to spend another evening at her place. She said she hated being a "dirty little secret." Roger began to kiss her again and said she wasn't a dirty little secret. Greenlee banged on the door and demanded to be let in. Roger ran to hide as Simone opened the door. Greenlee said she came to pick up the rent and to have Simone pick out bridesmaid's dress fabric. Greenlee realized that Simone was upset and dragged her to the sofa to sit. She said she wasn't leaving until Simone told her what was wrong. Simone said her father was just there and made her feel useless. Roger listened as Greenlee sympathized with her friend. She told Simone to just wait it out and things would get better. Simone thanked her friend and Greenlee left. Roger came into the room and Simone said she hated lying to Greenlee and begged him to let her tell Greenlee about them. Roger said they couldn't do that, Greenlee would never speak to him again. Simone tried to convince him but he said it would ruin Greenlee's wedding if they told her. Roger made Simone promise to do things his way and she finally gave in. The doorbell rang and a delivery man handed Simone a large package. Roger told her it was from him and that she would look very sexy in it. Simone sat down to open a beautiful gift and found silver candlesticks inside. She was confused and Roger was very angry, saying those were supposed to go to Greenlee. Meanwhile Leo and Greenlee were kissing on the sofa when the doorbell rang. A delivery man handed her a package and they wondered who it was from. They worked on opening the box and the phone rang. Greenlee answered it and it was someone from Revlon needing some figures. She went to the bedroom to get them as Leo got the box open. He found a note and read it. It said "Looking forward to all the happy things to come, Love, Roger." Leo thought that was very weird. A knock on the door interrupted him and in walked Roger. He saw the box and told Leo there had been a mistake. He handed the candlesticks to Leo and tried to take the other package. Leo stopped him and opened the box to find a very sexy negligee.

Tad and Brooke arrived at Dixie's apartment. Brooke offered to pack Dixie's things. Tad said he was supposed to be bringing Dixie home, not just her books and clothes. He said he feels like she's still alive and is waiting for him. He told Brooke that Dixie's body wasn't found, maybe she's just hurt. He said he couldn't fathom that Dixie would never be with him again. Brooke sympathized with him and said Dixie would always be in his heart, just like Laura was in hers. Brooke opened the door and they stepped in the apartment. Tad could barely force himself to look around. He found an arrangement of photos Dixie had brought with her. He picked up one of their wedding pictures and asked Brooke why bad things happen to good people. Brooke said it didn't make sense and never would. Tad saw the dining table set up for his arrival and sat down. He picked up a bottle of wine Dixie had chosen and said she had the room all set up for tonight "for us." Brooke went to the kitchen to get some water and returned with a gift she had found. She said Dixie must have planned to give that to Tad that evening. Tad took the gift but hesitated to open it. He finally opened the note and read it out loud. Tears fell as he read Dixie's apology for leaving him but how she was so excited that they were going to be parents again, together. Tad opened the gift and almost broke down when he found a framed ultrasound picture of their daughter. Dixie had written underneath "The Newest Member of The Martin Clan - Kate Martin." Both Brooke and Tad were speechless. Tad finally said Dixie had picked out the perfect name and the perfect wine. He raised a glass in a toast, saying "To surviving." Amen said Brooke. Tad thanked Brooke for handling everything and she said she wouldn't let him do it alone. Tad said she was a wonderful person and that Dixie admired her. Brooke said she admired Dixie too. Brooke asked if he was ready to leave. He told her no and she asked if she should wait outside. Tad looked up at her and said he wasn't leaving.

In Bianca's room a gloved hand lit a cigarette, then flicked it onto a gas soaked curtain.

Erica, Bianca and Chris discussed Kendall while standing in Erica's living room. Erica thought Kendall had broken into the house since she knew exactly what Bianca's room looked like. Chirs said they need to confront her and find out how she got in so Chris and Erica left to find Kendall. Bianca said she was going to check her room and went upstairs. Flames were raging in her room. As she opened the door she was knocked back by the heat and smoke. A little later Chris and Erica returned and found smoke pouring from the house. As Erica opened the door Kendall burst out of the house. Chris went inside to find Bianca and Erica screamed at Kendall. Erica said if anything happened to Bianca or Chris she will kill Kendall. Kendall claimed that she saw flames and went inside to help Bianca but Erica said she was only trying to kill her. Erica ran back into the house while Kendall tried to stop her. Chris found Bianca in the hallway but she was barely conscious. He picked her up and carried her away as Erica came in the front door. Kendall tried to grab Erica and keep her from running upstairs. Kendall finally resorted to hitting Erica in the head with a bottle, knocking her out. Kendall dragged Erica outside where she woke up on the ground. Erica stood up and called out for Bianca as the house was engulfed with flames and began to fall apart."
