"Babe and Jamie were busy painting a little red wagon for little Adam's first birthday present when a messenger showed up with a letter from J.R.'s attorneys stating that babe's visitation had been postponed and she would not be able to see the baby on his birthday. J.R. informed Adam that his attorney found some ambiguous wording in the custody settlement and that Babe won't be allowed to attend little Adam's birthday party. Babe said she wanted to take some turpentine and put it down J.R's tidy whities and toss in a lit match. Adam tried to reason with J.R. to let Babe see her son on his birthday. David then called Adam and furiously reminded him that they had a deal. David told him that if Babe doesn't see her son on his birthday, he will never help find Liza and Colby. He also threatened Adam to tell J.R. about the deal they struck. Adam told J.R. to reset his focus from punishing Babe to concentrating on getting Chandler Enterprises back. David subtly tried to pry information out of Babe and Jamie for the whereabouts of Liza and Colby. Adam advised J.R. to choose his battles and that this one is not worth fighting. He told him to savor his victory but to let Babe see her baby. J.R. agreed to let Babe have her visitation. When David told Babe that she would get to see little Adam on his birthday, she was ecstatic.
Erica went to Wildwind and immediately told Maria and everyone in the room that Zach did not kill Edmund. She then appealed to Ethan that it was time to admit that he lied and that he did not see his father kill Edmund. Kendall immediately defended Ethan and told him that he didn't have to say anything because she and everyone else knows he is telling the truth. Erica told Kendall not to be so naive and asked Ethan if he even knew why he was lying about Zach. Erica shared with Maria and the others that she had just left the prison and Zach confirmed what she had suspected, that he was innocent. Maria, visibly upset, told Erica she the only reason that Zach would all of a sudden change his confession and plead innocent is to mess with Maria's head. She then asked Erica how stupid can she be. Erica retorted, "Not nearly as stupid as you." Erica continued to insist that she was not one of Zach's pawns. Jack, seeing how upset Maria was took Erica outside to the foyer. He accused Erica of being on Zach's side. She said that she would never believe Zach's word alone, but confirmed that Lily did indeed see the murder and not only was Zach not the killer, but that Lily was in grave danger. Jack responded to Erica by telling her that he will make his own decision on Zach's innocence or guilt after he talks to Lily. Aidan promised Jack that there would be no more screwups and Lily would be kept safe. Jack then realized that Greenlee was no longer at Wildwind. Kendall confronted Erica and asked her how she could do such a thing and accused her of trying to break up Ethan and her. Erica again tried to make Kendall see that Ethan was lying to her and reminded Kendall that she should know exactly where Ethan was coming from because, "You did exactly the same thing to me." Erica continued to tell her to wake up and see the reality of the situation. Kendall angrily told Erica that since Zach can't do his dirty work from jail, he had manipulated her into doing it for him. Erica explained that she didn't care if Zach and Ethan tore each other apart, but she didn't want them to destroy Kendall as well. Meanwhile, Ethan again regaled Maria with how Zach spins his web and traps whoever he can to do his bidding. Ethan makes Maria believe that Zach is manipulating Erica for his own evil purposes. Ethan swears to Maria that he will put Zach away for good, and when Erica returned to the other room, Maria threatened to call the police. Erica agreed to go but not before she told Maria that not believing her would be the biggest mistake of her life. Kendall apologized to Maria for Erica's actions and suggested that she and Ethan leave to give Maria some alone time.
After Erica's announcement at Wildwind, Myrtle slipped off to visit Zach in prison. He asked her why she wasn't at Edmund's funeral and she asked him why he was still in jail. She told him to save his breath because Erica had crashed the funeral and told everyone that he did not kill Edmund. Myrtle told Zach that she didn't give a damn why he hadn't shouted his innocence to the world because whatever his reasons, they were all wrong. While you have been in jail the real killer is still on the loose. Zach said that although he did not see who killed Edmund because he was unconscious, he has an idea who did and the police should already have the real killer in their sights.
