When Maria goes in to see Edmund and take care of his medical needs, he snaps, "Don't touch me!" She backs off, but when she tries to be his nurse, he yells at her again not to touch him. Then Edmund asks her if she "sees" him. He tells her that he sees him--her husband with tubes and wires sticking out of him, trapped in a bed. Maria tells him that she loves him, no matter what and then they begin to argue. Aidan and Anita overhear them fighting and quickly interrupt. Anita gets Maria out of the room, leaving Aidan alone to talk to Edmund. Initially, Edmund gives Aidan the cold shoulder as well, until Aidan reminds him that Maria loves him, with or without the ability to walk and if Edmund doesn't see it, then he is a fool. They each slurp down a beer and Aidan even uses the medical tubing to make two straws! In the living room, Anita tells Maria that maybe she shouldn't try to do everything for Edmund.

Erica is preparing for her interview and even sends a $300 bouquet of flowers back to the florist because they are too glamorous. After all, the interview is about her new company and the attention should be on her, not the flowers. While she is checking over the room, she sees Jackson in the headlines of the newspaper, reading that he might lose his law license.
Before Jackson goes in front of the panel at his disciplinary hearing, he has some words with the judge who presided over Kendall's murder case. When she asks him if he has any character witnesses to vouch for him, he tells her no. He says that he has dragged enough people into his mess and will face the consequences of his actions on his own. Jackson presents his case to the panel, who tell him that he is an embarrassment to the law. Jackson says that he has no excuses for his case and would understand if he did lose his law license, but the panel should look at his history with the law. If they were to look at his history and not what he did, they would see how much he loves the law. The panel is about to leave to make their decision and Erica walks in, asking for a few minutes of their time. The panel agrees to hear what she has to say and presents a speech that truly helped Jackson's case. She explains that Jackson disobeyed the law to protect Bianca when the law did not protect her. Michael Cambias brought terror to her family and what Jackson did was out of love for his niece. After the panel leaves, Jackson thanks Erica for her speech and insists that they speak in private after a decision has been made. Erica tells him she has an interview to attend. When Jackson asks if they can meet that night, Erica only says they will talk as soon as possible. The board returns and tells Jackson that his license will be suspended for one year. If he breaks his probation during that year, his license will be revoked for the rest of his life. When Jackson turns to thank Erica, she is already gone.
Erica rushes off to her interview. When she sits down, she immediately begins to talk about her new company, appropriately called, "New." However, the reporter takes a different angle and asks, "How do you feel about her daughter carrying her rapists child?""
