"Tad and Aidan made Jack realize that the security disks they got from Zach plainly pointed to Jonathan, not Braden as the culprit of all gone bad in Pine Valley. They told him if Jonathan got a line on the location of Greenlee and Lily, that they were in great danger. Jack called Lily's old school to check on Greenlee and Lily and found out they never made it. He figured out quickly that when Greenlee called to say everything was fine, Jonathan and Braden already had taken them. Sam came to the door looking for Lily. Tad and Aidan pushed Jack to remember any clue Greenlee might have given him so they could figure out her and Lily's whereabouts. Jack then remembered that Greenlee said something about a psychic connection between she and Ryan and he realized that they were being held in the mine shaft at Miller's Falls. Jack, Aidan and Tad left to go find them and Sam insisted on going. Tad told him no, but as soon as they left, Sam followed.
When Ryan saw Braden's decomposing body, he asked Jonathan what he had done. Jonathan, delusional and confused, continued to hear Braden's voice telling him to kill everyone in the cave. When Jonathan began to argue with Braden, they realized how far gone he really was. Jonathan insisted it was Braden that wanted him to hurt them. Jonathan told Ryan he should have stayed away so he wouldn't get hurt. Jonathan fired off a warning shot and told them all to listen to him. Still insisting that Braden was calling the shots, Jonathan told Ryan to be quiet because he wasn't he would set off Braden. Finally having heard enough, Ryan yelled at Jonathan and told him that he knew what he had done. Visibly sinking deeper into his delusional nightmare, Jonathan insisted he was not a disappointment. Ryan, pretending to also hear Braden, told Jonathan that Braden wanted them safe. After some kind and gentle words from Ryan, Jonathan finally realized all he had done. Greenlee asked him if he was the one who poisoned her and Jonathan went off and told her she never should have doubted him and checked on his MBA. Jonathan then told them that he couldn't handle the pressure of college and he was committed. He told them he held on as best he could at the sanitarium while he waited for Ryan to save him, but Ryan never showed up. Jonathan told Ryan that the white coats were just like their dad and he wouldn't have had to stay in there if Ryan hadn't left him. He told Ryan that Braden showed up at the hospital and told Jonathan all the achievements Ryan had accomplished. But Jonathan wanted to know why Ryan never came to get him. When Jonathan got to Pine Valley, it was Braden who tried to stop him from shooting Ryan at the murder game. Braden threatened to have him recommitted, so Jonathan killed him. With Jonathan still aimed the gun at him, Ryan told Jonathan that he still loved him, but Jonathan said he had to kill him, so he would never leave him again. Greenlee tried to talk to Jonathan telling him that she couldn't watch Ryan die, so Jonathan told her he would kill her first. With Greenlee at his side, Ryan then pulled a gun and told Jonathan he would not hurt Greenlee. With guns pointed at each other, Jonathan revealed the bomb strapped to Braden. Ryan told the girls to get out, but Jonathan told them if they ran he would blow them all up. Jonathan reminded Greenlee of the incident at the police station when she told him that she knew what it was like to be out of control and think you were losing your mind and how she wanted to help him. She then told him again that she wanted to help him and in one of the best grimacing voices ever, he told her he wished he had dosed her one more time. Blaming the whole situation on the women, he asked why he shouldn't kill them. Ryan swore he would be by Jonathan's side forever if he would just let everyone go. Ryan pleaded with Jonathan to let him save him and get help. Jonathan, holding the detonator to the bomb said it was the only way out but Ryan told him to trust him one last time. Jonathan said he wanted to trust Ryan but he just couldn't. Ryan told Jonathan that he couldn't let him kill again and just as Jonathan's finger moved to the red button on the detonation device, Ryan shot him. Lily saw red and got hysterical. Still in disbelief that he shot his brother, Ryan got the girls out of the cave but ran back in to save Jonathan. Still conscious, Jonathan's finger was still on the red button as he stared at Ryan.
Di showed up at David's cabin and she told him she knew that he was part of the plan to finish her off. David tried to convince Di that he wasn't out to hurt her, but she insisted that whoever was after her, would be after him too. She told David that someone already tried to kill her. David told her that one thing she needed to know about him was that he had a lot of enemies that had nothing to do with her. She told him he was too weird for her. Trying to scare him with tales of what she learned on the "inside", he told her that another thing she should know about him is that he is always the scariest person in the room. He told her that she reminded him of someone he once knew and that is all he wanted from her. Di told David that she needed some air, so they went out. She told him that she wouldn't testify against her old boyfriend and that is why she was incarcerated. She asked about the woman he kept talking about. David told her about the virtues of Dixie and that she died in a car accident. J.R. showed up at David's cabin while he and Di were out walking and found a vial of truth serum. When they returned to the cabin, David found J.R. in the cabin and told him to put down the vial because he couldn't afford the deductible on it.
Zach went to Wildwind and Maria told him that she knew everything now and he was right and she was so wrong. She told him that she wanted to come see him the second she found out the truth, but didn't have the words to say she was sorry and so wrong. Zach told Maria that Sam was at the casino earlier and he was only there to make sure Sam got home safely. Maria and Zach left to find Sam and of course Maddie saw them leave together. Maria told Zach that she found out that Edmund had a secret physical therapist who beamed with pride because of Edmund's progress and ability to walk again. She asked him what she could say to him after not believing him about Edmund. He ignored her question and she asked if he heard her. Zach told Maria that she was not Edmund's victim and that she chose to believe him over Zach. He let her know that he had nothing further to say to her, so she demanded that he let her out of the car. She told him that he found her on the side of the road and when he lets her out, they will have come full circle and finally be done."
