"Kendall stormed into Erica's penthouse and told her that Aidan was lying, she was not trying to protect anyone but herself. Kendall said she was only looking out for herself and that she would never give up Enchantment. She took off Mona's pearl necklace and handed them back to Erica saying, "These mean even less to me than you do." Erica just grabbed Kendall and hugged her tightly. They sat down on the couch and Erica told Kendall that she wouldn't let her risk everything she's got just for her. Kendall snarled "It's just like you to make this about you!" Erica said "For once you're going to listen to your mother!." Erica held Kendall's hands and told her gently she wouldn't lift a finger to help her. "I know how far you'll go but you'll have to go it alone because you mean less than nothing to me" Erica quietly said, meaning exactly the opposite. Kendall understood right away and played along. She claimed that she couldn't wait to get back to Pine Valley to tell Erica about her marriage to Michael Cambias. Erica said, "Yes, and I slapped you for it." Kendall reminded her she did it in front of witnesses, but that there were no witnesses to Michael's murder. Erica said the police suspect Kendall and she replied "They can't prove a damn thing!." Erica told her to stick to her story and they agreed to continue pretending they hate each other. Erica picked up the pearl necklace and put it back on Kendall as the doorbell rang. They looked at each other and began hurling insults for the benefit of who ever was at the door. Erica opened it and the assistant DA and a cop were standing there. She ordered them to get Kendall out but was told they were there to take her down to the station for questioning. Erica said she was happy to go and press harassment charges against Kendall. She got her purse but Kendall stopped her and demanded the keys to the penthouse since she now owned Enchantment and the penthouse was part of the company. They began screaming at each other until they were pulled apart. The men started out the door with Erica following. She turned and looked at Kendall, and winked at her daughter. Kendall gave her a small smile back.

In the police station Reggie told Jack that he knew who killed Michael Cambias. He brought over his friend Patrick who began to tell a shaky tale of seeing Michael Cambias the night he disappeared. He claimed he saw Michael get into trouble with a gang and he figured it was a paid hit. Reggie said his friend's information tied up the case for Jack. Jack thanked Patrick for coming down and sent him out. He turned to his son and asked who he was trying to protect. Reggie said he wasn't covering for anyone, that Patrick was telling the truth. Jack told him to stay out of this case. Jack said he remembers Reggie teaching Bianca how to play chess. He said the two of them talked in some sort of code about Michael's disappearance. Reggie said he takes up for his family, Bianca was almost his sister, Miss Kane was almost his stepmother and Jack is his father. "Nobody takes that away from me!" he cried. "I'm going to make sure every last one of my family is safe!" Jack grabbed Reggie, hugged him tightly and then Reggie left.

Ryan walked into the police station and found Derek. He asked if he was ready to trade information and Derek said no. So Ryan offered something for free. Derek said he wanted everything Ryan knew about Kendall and the murder. Ryan said he never mentioned Kendall and Derek said maybe he was covering for her. Ryan got peeved and started to walk away. Derek stopped him and Ryan showed him the glass fragments he had taken from Michael's condo. Ryan said his money was on David as a prime suspect. Derek took the fragments and sent them to the lab.

Tad opened his front door and Brooke walked in looking for Jamie. Tad looked confused and said he thought Jamie stayed at her house last night. They realized he hadn't come home after the Fusion party and Brooke got upset. She called his cell phone but it just rang. Meanwhile in the motel room Jamie's cell phone woke Jamie and Babe up. She told him she was amazed that last night was his first time. They made love again and then she jumped up to take a shower. He asked if they could see each other later and she invited him into the shower right then. In Tad's living room Simone came downstairs and Tad told her Jamie was out all night. Simone giggled and said "Maybe he got lucky like his dad did!." She went to work and Brooke just glared at Tad. She said she didn't know who to be more worried about, Jamie or his father. Tad said Jamie was growing up and they should realize there was a better than even chance that Simone was right. Moments later an very pleased Jamie rushed in. He kissed his mother, greeted his father, grabbed his backpack and headed back out the door. Brooke stopped him and asked "What about last night?" Jamie grinned from ear to ear and said "Last night ROCKED!" and ran out. Tad said "Simone was right, somebody rang his chimes last night." Back in the motel room Babe was on the phone to someone. She said how lonely she was and couldn't wait to see this person.

Bianca met David at the boat house. She told him that she and Maggie signed a lease on an apartment. Bianca also said Maggie knows all about the baby and the plan and wants to go through it with her. David asked if she was still committed to seeing this pregnancy through and Bianca replied "Absolutely! You'll keep my secret won't you?" David said he didn't think Erica could handle the shock with every thing else that was going on. Bianca became worried but David reassured her that Erica was fine. Bianca told him that she was more sure than ever that what she was doing was right. David told her to come by the clinic tomorrow for a prenatal checkup. She thanked him for helping her and David said this was how he was getting over losing Leora. "Helping you is helping me" he told her. They hugged as 2 cops came over looking for David. They told him Derek Frye wanted him down at the station. Bianca offered to come along but he told her no, he was sure it was something to do with Anna leaving something in her office. He said he'd see her at the clinic the next day and left with the police.

Bianca went to the penthouse and found Kendall still there. Kendall had been thinking about Erica's wedding day, and how Bianca said they were a legacy of strong women. She told Bianca about it and then said "Who knew how strong we'd have to be." She said she'd leave Bianca alone and started towards the door. Bianca stopped her and said she needed to thank her for the day at the clinic. She said she had never felt so lost but Kendall had known what to say and she helped her make the hardest decision of her life. Bianca said she had been surprised because Kendall didn't hate her. Kendall responded "How could I ever hate you, you're my sister!!" Bianca said she proved it that day. Kendall asked if Bianca blamed her for bringing Michael to town. Bianca asked "When is this going to end?" She said she knows the rape wasn't her fault, there was nothing she could have done to stop it. Kendall told her not to blame herself for anything she had no control over. Bianca looked at her and said "Then you can't either!." She told Kendall to stop beating herself up about it and let it go. Bianca said they should make a pact; they both work on not blaming themselves. If one of them slips up, the other sister gets to kick her butt. Kendall smiled and said "You've got a pact." They hugged.

David walked into the police station and saw Ryan with Derek. Just then Erica arrived and Ryan exclaimed "What the hell is she doing here?" Erica walked over and told him she needed him to pick up the pace in getting Enchantment. She said loud enough for everyone to hear "I can't abide the thought of Kendall running Enchantment!" Ryan told her to call him if she needed him and left. Reggie stepped over and Erica was thrilled to see him. She hugged Reggie and he told her "I've got your back Miss Kane." Jack, Derek, Erica and David went into Anna's office to talk. Derek asked Erica where she was the night Michael disappeared. She said she'd have to look in her date book. She got it out but that date was blank. Derek asked if she was with David. Erica said she might have been, that night was a blur. Then he asked if she knew he owned a gun. Erica started to say it was probably Anna's but Derek said it had 2 different sets of prints on it. One was David's and the other was hers. David said he had been teaching Erica to shoot a gun. Just then the forensics report came in and Derek looked it over. He announced that he had enough there to charge one of them with the murder of Michael Cambias."
