"At Zach's office, Maria questions him to find out why he is really in Pine Valley. He tells her the truth is that he lied to her, he's there because of her. Maria asks if he's trying to end her marriage. Zach tells her she's the only one with the power to do that. She says she won't end her marriage, not for him, not for anyone. Maria continues asking why he's there. He tells her he's not sure what he wants. He just had to see her. At first it was to say "bye" but seeing her again brought all the old feelings back. "If I don't leave now, I don't think I ever will," Zach says. Maria doesn't understand how him sticking around can help him get over her. Zach tells her he has to make real in his mind that she's made a life without him. Maria tells Zach she doesn't want to go back to that time. Zach admits he's being selfish. He says he will give his part of the Miranda Montgomery Center project to Bobby and stay out of her way as much as possible. "Wait," Maria tells him. "You didn't answer my question. Did you come here to kill someone?" Maria asks. Zach can't believe she'd ask that question after their 24 perfect weeks together then promises her there is no need to worry. He's there for her and on business. Zach repeats that he will hand the board-meeting stuff to Bobby. Maria again tells him to wait. She thinks that might be too many balls for Bobby to juggle. She admits she lied to Zach too. Maria tells Zach she never got over him either and says she'd enjoy working with him.
Anita bursts into the office looking for Maria. Seeing Zach she grabs him and says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you." Seems Zach convinced Anita to give Bobby another chance. Anita is gambling all she has on her marriage and her man.
Kendall continues trying to get Bobby to bed Greenlee. She tells him all of his money worries are over if he does. Bobby needs 200 grand by tonight and Kendall knows it but Anita doesn't. Kendall uses this information as leverage to try to get Bobby to say "yes" to her plan. Bobby doesn't want to cheat on Anita though. He leaves Kendall alone in the park. Later, as he mulls over a drink at the Valley Inn restaurant, Bobby hears Zach warning him if he doesn't repay the money by tonight, his job is not all he'll lose. Palmer finds Bobby having a drink and joins him long enough to tell him how proud he is of him. Kendall walks in and tells Palmer he has the wrong man. Palmer disagrees. He tells Kendall about Bobby paying back the money he owed him and tells Kendall how proud he is of Bobby. Palmer orders three glasses of single malt Scotch to toast his grandson. As Palmer toasts Bobby's future, Anita comes in and says she hopes that includes her. Palmer is glad to see Anita and tells her it looks like she's finally realized the value of more than a dollar. Palmer praises Bobby to Anita. She is ready to take her husband to his room. Kendall encourages all the praise because she knows the pressure it's putting on Bobby to repay Zach by tonight. When Palmer and Anita are out of earshot, Kendall asks again if Bobby is ready to accept her offer. Bobby tells her to leave the 200 thousand at the front desk tonight. Kendall takes his terms and tells him to take Greenlee.
Jamie comes home from jail. Livia wants immediately to start building strategy to prove Jamie's innocence. Jamie wants to go after JR and protect Babe. Livia resigns if they insist on going after JR to build reasonable doubt. Tad suspects Livia knows something on JR and that's why she won't let them go after him. Livia insists she just wants vigorously to defend Jamie but it has to be her way or not at all. Tad, Brooke, and Jamie all agree to let Livia do it her way.
Babe rushes downstairs to tell JR she's fertile and wants to make another baby. JR is somewhat surprised by Babe's request. She tells him he promised whatever would make her happy and another baby is what she wants. "JR, please tell me that you want the same thing," Babe pleads. JR goes along with Babe, who says she's going to flush her birth control pills down the toilet. Adam and Krystal are surprised to hear they're going to be grandparents again. Both seem a bit relieved when they learn Babe is not already pregnant but that the couple is only going to try for another baby. Krystal pulls Babe out of the library to go swimming. An incredulous Adam asks JR if he's really going to have another baby "with that tramp." "Not if my life depends on it," JR responds. He explains he's just trying to make Babe think he still loves her. JR tells his dad he'll take care of it the same way he took care of Jamie then vows he will crush birth control pills and put them in Babe's orange juice every morning if he has to write the prescription himself. No way is she going to get pregnant by him.
Krystal questions Babe's motives for getting pregnant. Babe thinks if she has another baby to hand JR, telling him the truth about Bess won't hurt so much. Krystal tells Babe she doesn't have to do this because David will keep their secret. Babe explains she's not going to tell Bianca out of fear that someone else will tell her. Babe says she is eventually going to tell Bianca the truth because it kills her to think of Bianca with no baby to hold. Babe says it was all she could do at the ground-breaking ceremony not to run up and give Bess to Bianca and tell her the truth. The only thing that kept her from it was not having the heart to break JR's. If she has another baby, she thinks it will help JR through the heartache. Babe breaks down at the thought of losing Bess. Even though Bess is not her baby, she says she couldn't love her more if she were. Still talking to her mom, Babe imagines taking JR to the woods where their baby died and showing him the window and how it will help him get over losing Bess. JR hears the last part as he comes into the room and wants to know why he will be losing Bess. Babe tells JR she was just thinking about Bess as she grows up and how it won't be long before she won't be a baby any more. JR appears to accept this explanation.
As soon as Livia is gone, Jamie tries to leave the house. Tad won't let Jamie go because he knows where he is headed. Brooke promises to use her investigative skills to help Jamie if he'll stay put. Brooke tells them she is already secretly recording Adam. Though the tape's contents can't be used in court, they can end up in the next issue of Tempo and thus be used in the court of public opinion. Brooke and Tad go to Chandler mansion to make sure her tape recorder hasn't been discovered. As they arrive at Adam's, Brooke and Tad enter faking an argument. Brooke apologizes for Tad's behavior. She tells them he insisted on coming there because he believes Jamie is innocent. While Tad distracts everyone with arguments for Jamie's exoneration, Brooke slips away to check her bug. As Brooke removes her tape recorder from the shelf in Adam's library, Babe walks in and catches her. Babe asks Brooke what she is doing. Brooke tells Babe that Jamie did not drug her and this may be the proof. She asks Babe if she wants to hear what's on the tape. Someone catches Jamie listening in from the other side of the door."
