"Bianca went to visit Myrtle, who was thrilled to see her. Someone knocked at the door and Bianca opened it, finding Ethan on the doorstep. She quickly invited him in and introduced him to Myrtle. He was holding a newspaper and asked if the room for rent was still available. Myrtle very angrily told him that if he was who he said he was, there was no room for him at her boarding house. Bianca calmed Myrtle down and convinced her that Ethan was a good guy, nothing like Michael Cambias. Bianca explained that this house was where Michael attacked her. Ethan was shocked and amazed that Bianca could stand to be there, drinking tea. She said that Myrtle was a big part of her life and she wasn't letting Michael take that away from her. Myrtle got upset again with all the talk about Michael, and Bianca reminded her that Ethan wasn't Michael. Myrtle said it was a bit early to say that but agreed to get him the paperwork for renting a room. While she was gone Ethan remarked that it was amazing that Bianca could stick up for him like that. Bianca said it was because he is her daughter's only surviving Cambias relative, and the only good one at that. When Myrtle returned Ethan told her he'd changed his mind and wouldn't take the room because he shouldn't be in that house, and that he may not be staying in Pine Valley that long anyway. Bianca asked why and Ethan said it wasn't looking like he would be able to prove he was a Cambias since there was no surviving DNA any where to be found. Bianca looked thoughtful and said she thought there might be one place there could be some DNA. She told him where he might look and Ethan left. Bianca turned to Myrtle and told her that Ethan was not like Michael. "I thought I was healing and then Ethan comes to town and all the hurt comes back." With tears in her eyes she told Myrtle that she missed Miranda so much.
Maria went to see Zach at the condo. She told him he really needed to find another place to live and that he needed to let Michael go. Zach replied "What if I don't want to let him go?" Maria told him about Bianca coming to her after the rape when she was pregnant and scared. Zach wondered if the sex could have been consensual. Maria said absolutely not, and Michael's ghost told Zach he wasn't capable of such atrocities. Zach asked Maria if Bianca could've been confused about the encounter. Maria told him that her sister had been raped and that she knows "that look." "Your brother attacked and raped her!." Michael told Zach not to believe her, "don't abandon me now brother!" Maria told him that once he accepted what happened, he would realize that "Michael's choices weren't your fault." Zach asked Maria to leave and she went out the door, looking at him with concern. After he shut the door Zach asked Michael if he did what Maria said he did. Michael pleaded with his brother to believe him. He said that if Zach believes the rape story, then "no one on earth will remember me with anything but hate and disgust." He begged Zach to remember what they meant to each other. Zach walked around the condo, put the photo of the two of them in a drawer and then sat down to think. Later Ethan showed up and asked to speak to Zach. Zach let him in and Ethan reminded him that he had once offered to help him prove he was a Cambias. Ethan asked if he would still do that. Zach asked how and Ethan said he needed to find just one thing that Michael had left behind, a toothbrush, or comb or something that might have DNA on it. Zach said the condo had been deep cleaned before he moved in but he did find a picture. He handed the photo of two young boys to Ethan. He glared at the picture and said this must be my father and Uncle Michael, "I hate them!." Zach got out an album full of newspaper articles and told Ethan to look closer at his family. Ethan became suspicious and wondered "Who are you, why are you so interested in the Cambias family and what connection do you have to Michael?" Zach answered that from what he'd heard there was a curse on the Cambias family that was better left buried. Ethan replied "Under landfill??." Zach said he couldn't help Ethan any further so Ethan left. Michael returned and told Zach not to let Pine Valley do to Ethan what it did to him. "You deserted me, left me in the muck of being a Cambias heir. I loved you so much and sacrificed so much for you to be free. Protect yourself."

In the hospital, Aidan and Edmund discussed 5 friends of Alexander Cambias's. Edmund told Aidan he wanted all the information he could find on these 5 people. Maria walked near the room and overheard the conversation. She heard Edmund say they had to find the connection between Ethan and Zach. When she walked into the room she asked if they were playing super sleuths. Edmund joked about getting the goods on Zach and then said he was going home to help Sam with some homework. He left and Maria turned to Aidan. She asked him to please help her stop Edmund's vendetta against Zach. Aidan said Edmund had plenty of reasons to investigate Zach. Maria said yes, and they were mostly about her. Aidan asked what she knew about Zach that she wasn't telling them. Maria said she knows that Edmund and Zach are both stubborn, impulsive and always right. She asked him to stop this investigation before someone gets hurt.

David was absolutely sure Babe was imagining it. Krystal said David was just afraid to get his hopes up. He said that was ridiculous. Krystal said "What if it isn't? What if our grandchild is alive?" She said they had to check this out and David agreed to help.
