"Kendall and Bianca stood by as Erica blasted her father on the phone. When she hung up they asked what he wanted. Erica said he was asking her for her forgiveness. Bianca picked up the phone to call Jack but Erica said no one must know that Eric Kane had called. She said he was to blame for everything and she would never forgive him for it. Erica told her daughters that Eric Kane left a legacy of rape and lies. "He abandoned me, he didn't care what his friend would do to me. We have to live that night over and over again because of him" she told them. Her tirade became more and more heated as she said her father would know what it was like to have someone he loved turn their backs on him. Bianca and Kendall asked if that's how she felt about what they did. Bianca asked if her mother felt so betrayed by them that she couldn't get past it. Both girls told Erica how much they loved her and Erica started to look as if she would let her guard down.
In Adam's home office he and Mary groused about Babe's child being a Chandler. Adam very unhappily said he has to accept the tramp as part of the family. Mary was disgusted but Adam ordered her to treat Babe with the utmost respect. He said from now on they would have to treat Babe like a queen, until the baby was safely born. "Then Babe will fade from the picture" he told Mary. Adam demanded that Mary give the baby shower for Bianca as Babe wanted. She argued but he threatened to throw her out of the house if she didn't comply. Mary said she didn't have time to get engraved invitations and Adam told her to invite the guests personally. She was horrified but left to do as he told her.
Just as Erica looked like she might open up to Kendall and Bianca, Mary Smythe barged into the office. She announced the baby shower for Bianca, given by Babe. Bianca said now wasn't a good time for a party but Erica interrupted her and said Babe could count on all 3 of them to be there tomorrow. Mary left and Bianca told Erica she didn't need a shower if it was going to make her more upset. Erica said it was a great idea but she was really busy now and ushered the girls out. Bianca and Kendall stood at the door and wondered if Erica had implied that they had betrayed her. Bianca said because Erica was willing to go to the shower she was reaching out to them. They hugged as Erica listened from the other side of the door.
Jack and Edmund played cards in Edmund's hospital room. Edmund told Jack he was going to pursue the surgery that might restore his ability to walk. He said Maria didn't want him to do it and asked Jack to help Maria understand his position. Meanwhile Anita was in Dr. Joe's office, thanking him for hiring her as Maria walked in and said he couldn't give her a job. Dr. Joe left them alone to discuss the situation. Maria was adamant that Anita go back to Chicago to be with her husband. Anita admitted that Bobby wasn't home much, he'd taken a new job that kept him traveling. She said she wanted to stay to help Maria and Edmund. The sisters discussed Edmund's condition. Maria said she was going to convince Edmund to forget about the surgery. Anita said Edmund wanted to have the surgery. They argued and Maria said she wasn't going to let Edmund take the chance. She said the only thing that matters is that Edmund is home with his family. Anita said what if that wasn't the only thing that mattered to him. Maria said she would make him forget the surgery. Back in Edmund's room, Jackson said sometimes the risk we take is worth the price we pay. A man came into the room and served Jackson with court papers. Jack said it looked like he was going to pay the price. Edmund asked if it was worth it. Jack left the room. Maria came in and told him she has all sorts of things she needs his help with at home. Edmund pulled her close and told her how much he loves her. Then he told her he wants to have the surgery.
Babe and Krystal sat nervously inside the house as Tad took JR outside. Babe wanted to know what he was telling her husband and Krystal tried to brush it off. Babe realized that Tad knows she was married to Paul and the marriage was never annulled. Krystal said she was sure Tad wouldn't tell JR. She asked if Babe wanted to be sure JR was the father of the baby, she said they could have another test done. Krystal asked Babe if she wanted to be with Jamie rather than JR. Babe said no, she loves JR only.
Outside JR told Tad he was the happiest man on earth. Tad asked if he was happy with Babe and JR wondered why he'd ask such a thing. Tad implied that Babe was hiding another secret and asked how JR would take it if he found out Babe was playing hide and seek with the truth. JR said he couldn't take another hit like that. Tad asked if JR loved Babe. JR said yes, he loves Babe and realized what a jerk he'd been. But he didn't know if the situation between him and Jamie could be repaired. He hoped that he and Tad could get past this because "You're as much my dad as Adam is." JR said he's finally gotten the family he always wanted. Tad was touched and didn't tell JR about Babe's marriage to Paul. He told JR that Dixie would be "over the moon" about this baby. They hugged and JR went back inside to Babe. Tad looked up at the sky and said to Dixie that he couldn't do it, he didn't have the heart. Krystal came out and said "You have the biggest heart, you did right by those kids." Tad turned to her angrily and said he did it for JR only, but that Krystal had to fix this. He ordered her to make sure JR never finds out his wife is a bigamist. She promised to make the marriage to Paul disappear. Krystal swore that Babe loves JR more than anything and will never repeat her mistakes. She thanked Tad for being a gentleman and hugged him. Tad pulled back and sarcastically said "Is this the part where you sleep with me to make sure I keep my mouth shut?." Krystal was offended but Tad made a few more comments on how far Krystal would go for Babe. She said she'd done a lot of awful things in the past for Babe and said that sleeping with Tad wouldn't be the lowest thing she'd done. Tad refused her offer of sex and Krystal told him to go to hell as he walked away.
JR fussed over Babe and said he wanted to go to the next OB appointment with her. Babe asked him what would have happened if they had found out today that the baby wasn't his. JR tried to avoid the question. Babe asked if he still loved her and JR said yes, although he couldn't have handled it if the baby wasn't his. Adam walked in and handed Babe the Chandler christening gown, saying it was a peace offering. Babe accepted it as JR smiled at his father. JR suggested a toast and Adam went to pour the drinks."
