"JR visits Kendall, hands her an MP3 player and asks if it would make a good gift. Of course, Kendall thinks it is a gift for her and eagerly accepts it. JR explains that he bought it as a gift for Laurie and that she turned it down. Kendall was aghast that any girl could turn down an expensive gift like that. JR asks Kendall for advice. What does Laurie really want? Kendall figures out that Laurie is the kind of girl that isn't into material things. She doesn't want a gift that took no more thought than the use of his daddy's credit card. Kendall suggests that JR takes it slow with Laurie and let her get to know him better. Then she can see what a great guy he really is.

At the high school, Laurie opens her locker and stares at a picture of herself and JR together. The janitor comes up behind her and asks why she didn't tell him that Adam Chandler Junior was her boyfriend. The janitor angrily tells Laurie that "Richie Rich" is not the one for her. Laurie's girlfriend approaches and tells Laurie she should watch out for the creepy janitor because he seems to have a thing for Laurie. After the girlfriend leaves, the janitor comes over and starts talking to Laurie again. JR comes up behind, grabs the janitor by the arm and tells him to leave Laurie alone or JR will report him. The janitor moves away and continues cleaning. JR gives Laurie a CD burned with her favorite songs that he made for her. Laurie likes the gift, but tells JR she can't accept it. She also can't be his girlfriend anymore. Laurie's excuse is that she needs to concentrate on her grades and doesn't have time for a relationship. JR doesn't buy it and accuses Laurie of letting the creepy janitor influence her. Laurie admits that yes, she does because he is her father.

Tad finds Jake in the hospital chapel. When he asks about Mia, Jake sadly says that he is losing her and there is nothing he can do about it. Tad advises Jake not to waste the little time they may have left. He tells Jake that every minute they have together is another chance to tell Mia how he feels about her.

Liza sits at Mia's bedside watching over her sister. Stuart enters and asks Liza if they can talk in private. Liza goes into the hallway with Stuart where he begins to ask her about Mia's fall. Before Stuart can say anything, Marion comes along and stops him. When Liza leaves, Marion begs Stuart to leave it alone. Stuart reluctantly agrees.

Jake comes to Mia's room and even though she is unconscious, he talks to her and tells her how much he loves and needs her. Mia wakes up and says she loves Jake too. Jake asks her for a favor. He wants them to married that night. Mia is worried that this means Jake thinks she is going to die. Jake assures her that isn't true. He just wants to make every moment count.

Liza watches Jake and Mia from the hallway. Tad comes and apologizes for the way Jamie acted at the party. Liza never should have found out about Adam's affair that way. Liza says she already knew Adam was cheating on her. Tad realizes that Liza still believed Adam's affair was with Mia. Tad asks what exactly happened the night of the party.

Greenlee confides in Trey that she is going to start her own cosmetics company. Trey hugs her in congratulations, but a horrified Greenlee pushes him away asking what is he doing? She adamantly informs Trey he will never take Leo's place. Trey backpedals saying that isn't what he is trying to do. Greenlee asks Trey if he will find out for her who owns a certain building that used to house a pharmaceutical company. It will be the perfect spot to start her company. She needs him to find the owner and make an offer as soon as possible. If he can accomplish this, she'll find a spot for him on her team.

Trey leaves on his mission while Greenlee gets on the phone to raise some capital. Unfortunately, she is told by her financial advisor that because of the drop in the stock market, her inheritance isn't worth nearly as much as it used to be. In fact, there isn't even enough there for her to buy the building. Greenlee places another call to her mother and asks Mary to come over. When Mary arrives, Greenlee excitedly tells her about her new idea and asks for a loan. Mary says it sounds too risky. She can't afford to loan the money unless it is a sure thing. Greenlee is deeply disappointed, but vows to find a way to make it work.

Trey meets Kendall, but tells her he has to cancel their lunch date. He explains that he is making a real estate deal for Greenlee. He doesn't want to tell Kendall more, but Kendall assures him it doesn't matter because she certainly doesn't have the money to interfere with any of Greenlee's business deals. Trey tells Kendall he needs to find out who owns a certain building in Pine Valley. Petey overhears and says he knows who owns the building, but won't tell unless they pay him. Kendall sees through his ploy and knows that Palmer must own the building. She tells Trey she will talk to Palmer about selling if Trey will ask Greenlee to give Kendall a job in her new company. Trey won't promise anything, but says that he will try."
