"Ryan catches up with Greenlee back in the Pine Valley area and is upset that she bought and drove a motorcycle to get back. He knows that she doesn't know anything about motorcycles, much less have any experience driving them and he's worried. He starts to lecture her, and she seeming surprised she says, "Wow - you really care!" Ryan responds that of course he does. Greenlee seems more concerned that her new bike seems to be broken. After determining that the valve that allows gas to get to the engine was closed, his fears are confirmed. He agrees to fix the bike only after Greenlee agrees to take some safety courses.
Before they leave, Ryan asks if Greenlee has been in touch with any of her family - like her father (since he is the only one that knows where she is after she disappeared down the mineshaft) - and she says no. He tells her about the reporter that laid into Erica with questions about Bianca and Bianca trying to come to her rescue. He said they got roasted on live TV.
Ryan then gets Greenlee to agree to go to a motel, as a storm is coming. He will follow her to make sure she stays safe. When they get there and Greenlee goes to park her bike, it falls over on her. Ryan comes around the corner and sits the bike up and sees what happened. He tells her that she needs to engage the kickstand before getting off the bike, and she admits she thought it was automatic. He takes her keys and says he will keep them until she adequately learns about the parts of the bike.
They get the last room available at the motel, and Greenlee automatically offers to sleep on the couch. Ryan, still shocked at Greenlee's attitude change, says that they can flip for it. Then, concerned, Ryan says that she should get out of her wet clothes.
Babe and Bianca get into Babe's car after Erica lets loose on Bianca. Babe drives for a moment in silence and then says that it would help if she talked about it. Bianca asks Babe to get her as far away from Erica Kane as humanly possible. With the incoming storm, Bianca is a bit jumpy (because like her mother, her rape occurred during a storm). Her nervousness is rubbing off and Babe pulls over (because she can't drive when nervous). Bianca asks if maybe Erica was right - had she ensured a lifetime for herself, her child and her family?
As they take off again, Bianca says that as much as she already loves Miranda, she can't protect her from the truth (that her father is a rapist and her mother is the murderer who killed her father). She can't protect her from the evil out in the world that will make sure the truth is known. She doesn't want Miranda to hate herself because of the sins of her parents. She doesn't know if she will know when to tell her - and Babe said that she would be able to find the right time. Babe then asks her if she regrets keeping her baby - Bianca says no, but she just never considered that her choice would hurt so many people - especially Miranda. She feels that her only choice now is to go back to her original plan and leave town.
Bianca continues to blame herself for Erica's behavior and the downward spiral that she is in. She just wanted to give Miranda a chance. Babe believes that Erica knows that but Bianca thinks Erica will never be able to accept her baby. She thinks that if she stays in town, every time Erica sees them, it will rip her mother up all over again. Babe, although moved, doesn't want Bianca to leave. She says that she and her baby will miss them, and asks Bianca to promise she won't leave.
The storm gets worse and Babe and Bianca decide that they should pull over and wait until the rain slows down because they can't see. Babe tries to stop the car, but the brakes fail.
Kendall and Erica face off in Erica's office. Kendall smashes the glass of champagne that Erica is drinking and tells her that she was unbelievably cruel to Bianca when she needed her most. Erica is quasi flippant about the glass but Kendall doesn't let her off that easy. She said that she has been waiting for her to take Bianca in her arms and tell her everything would be all right. Erica says Kendall is just upset because she knows Erica is right and knows the truth. Kendall asks what the "great truth" is, and Erica said, "The truth about you." Erica said that Bianca needed to know the real truth about her situation, not the sugarcoated version. Erica now blames Kendall for Bianca's decision to keep her baby and said that Kendall convinced Bianca for selfish reasons. Erica believes that Kendall was taking advantage of Bianca in her fragile state. Kendall tells Erica that Bianca is a grown up, a strong and courageous woman and that Erica needs to accept that. Erica says that she knows both of her daughters well and that Kendall is responsible for destroying all of their lives and their family.
Erica believes that by keeping the baby, Bianca is trying to prove that she is better than Erica was. Kendall begins to tear up, and says that they could all be happy. Erica thinks that Kendall set a series of events in motion and that it will end badly for all, but especially for the baby. Kendall continues to cry and Erica abandons her in favor of her waiting car.
Erica arrives home and immediately looks for the bottle of alcohol that should be sitting by the glasses in the living room. Jackson appears, alcohol in hand, and asks if this is what she is looking for. She takes the bottle and pours a drink, and says she hopes he isn't going to try to stop her or lecture her. He says he won't stop her, but that he wants her to listen to what he has to say. She agrees.
Jackson says that while she is there physically - mentally, emotionally - she is somewhere where he can't reach her anymore. Jack wants her to hold on to him instead of the bottle. She feels like with Bianca, and Kendall, and Greenlee - he already has too many people hanging on to him. He insists that he always has room for her. He continues by saying that he needs to tell her how he feels: he thinks that what she is doing is not only hurting her but "us."
As the storm gets closer and louder, Erica starts to get more jumpy. She insists that she doesn't need to be taken care of or protected. Jackson says that their future is in jeopardy and that he doesn't intend to let go of their relationship without a fight. He said either she stays "over there" with the alcohol or she chooses him. Erica goes to him and lets Jack put his arms around her.
Meanwhile, Kendall goes to David's cabin and asks what Bianca said to him on the day that she was supposed to have the abortion. At first, David says no because he had to abide by the rules of doctor/patient confidentiality. He asks why she is so upset and needs to know. She recounts her experience with Erica and said that she is afraid that she really is responsible for ruining Bianca and Miranda's life. She wants to know from David if Erica was right.
David said that Bianca made her own decision - and that she wanted to carry the baby to term with every fiber of her being. Kendall says that she talked to Bianca before she went in, and thought that maybe her presence there was enough to sway Bianca into not having the abortion. David points out that if that is what happened, Bianca would have likely made it known that she was pregnant instead of hiding it the way she did. By hiding it, she was trying to protect everyone. Kendall only knew because she figured it out.
Finally, to drive the point home, David said that Bianca tried to keep it from Erica because she knew Erica would come unhinged and everyone knew it. Now that Erica was in the know, what was predicted was coming true and he believes that Erica, in her actions, is trying to take everyone over the edge with her.
Grateful for her conversation with David, Kendall leaves, saying that she has to find Bianca. After she takes off, David goes back inside and turns on the radio. He hears the severe storm and flash flood warnings and tries to call to call to Kendall to come back, but she is already gone.
Simone is ranting while Tad tries to talk some sense into her - she is convinced that he is going to dump her. Once he settles her down, he announces that he wants to make some changes and is going on hiatus. He needs time to figure out what is best for him and for everyone else involved. Then Liza shows up and Simone freaks out all over again. She thinks that Liza is going to replace her and that Tad was just trying to let her down easy. Liza pushes Simone's buttons and Simone launches at Liza. Tad has to hold her back.
Krystal shows up and Tad asks her to stay. He said that he was heading into a "female-free zone" as far as his love life is concerned. He "forbid" them to love him and Krystal has a good time laughing at him. Tad says that the whole situation now felt wrong and that they all deserved better than what he could give them. Liza says she understands, but as she leaves, she says that they would talk about it more when they were alone. Krystal leaves soon after.
Simone wants one last romp to seal the deal, but after a goodbye kiss, Tad shuts her down.
A little later, as the storm is going full-force, and he is sitting at his desk, Tad hears a knock at the door. He hopes it isn't a female, but he opens the door and finds Krystal on the other side."
