"At Ryan's house, Jake arrived to ask about Greenlee; however, Ryan replied that Jake would have to ask David. Jake raged that Ryan had to fight for Greenlee. Ryan reasoned that he had to regain Greenlee's trust, and the best way to do that was to let her go. Jake countered that hope would only get Ryan so far, but Ryan felt that hope was all he had. Ryan left in a huff.

At police headquarters, Brot saw Natalia primping, dressed in club attire, and she said she was going undercover. Brot warned her against playing bait to catch an identity thief, but Natalia said that if she wanted to get gussied up for a drink at ConFusion, it was her business.

Later, Natalia settled onto a stool at ConFusion, and, calling herself Michelle, she met a man named Larry. She spotted Brot lurking in the back, and she excused herself from the bar to tell him to get lost. Brot doubted that she had backup or a gun hidden in that dress, but Natalia insisted that she could handle herself. "Don't say I didn't warn you," Brot replied and left.

Ryan arrived at the bar and ordered a bottle of bourbon. Jake followed Ryan in and claimed that he needed to help out Ryan's liver. Ryan poured Jake a glass and warned Jake not to mention Greenlee. As Jake vented about David, Ryan spied Larry doing something suspicious near the purse that Natalia had left on the bar.

Ryan left a ranting Jake and approached Natalia, who had just returned to her seat. Ryan offered to buy her a drink; however, Larry grabbed Ryan's shoulder and said she already had one. Ryan jerked away and socked Larry. Jake held Ryan back as Larry fled.

A bouncer dragged Larry back, and Ryan showed everyone a data reader that Larry had been using to scan data from Natalia's purse. Ryan claimed that the reader could work from across the room. Natalia advised Larry to cancel his plans for the evening, because he was spending the night with her-at the police station.

Jake congratulated Ryan, who said he could spot a con a mile away. Jake murmured that old habits died hard. Natalia thanked Ryan for his help. She said she'd be filing her own theft report instead of processing a criminal if Ryan hadn't intervened. Natalia left, and Jake remarked that Ryan's skills were going to waste. Jake wondered if Ryan would consider returning to his old business if David were Ryan's new mark.

Erica interrupted the Wildwind wedding to ask if they needed a witness, but Greenlee ordered Erica out. Erica was glad to go-once she got her new office keys. As the ladies argued, David exclaimed that he'd promised the minister that they'd finish the ceremony that time.

Jack waltzed in, and Greenlee asked him to get Erica out of Fusion and out of Greenlee's face. Jack wished that Ryan had talked some sense into Greenlee, and Greenlee was surprised that Jack knew about Ryan's stunt. Erica remarked that Ryan was too good for Greenlee, who huffed that Erica just wanted Ryan to herself. Erica claimed that she just wanted the keys, but Greenlee retorted, "Over my dead body." Narrowing her eyes, Erica warned, "Careful."

Jack pulled Greenlee aside, where he tried to persuade her to stop the wedding, but Greenlee wouldn't forgive Ryan for sleeping with her best friend and her best friend's mother. Jack said there might be no chance for heartbreak with David, but there was no chance for real love, either. She asked Jack to leave if he couldn't support the wedding, and Jack stormed out.

Erica pressured David to get her access to her office, and she warned that Gayle was edgy. David said he was working on it, but he had to put a ring on Greenlee's finger before Erica got the keys to the kingdom. Greenlee returned and said that since Erica was wearing an ugly dress, Erica might as well to stay as a bridesmaid. Erica wished David luck and left.

The minister resumed the ceremony and pronounced Greenlee and David husband and wife. David kissed Greenlee's teary cheek. Afterward, the newlyweds had champagne, and David worried about Greenlee's mood. She turned on some music and prodded him to dance with her. David welcomed her into his arms, and they swayed to the music. Afterward, David suggested that they take a break on a nice, secluded beach. Greenlee chuckled and said she really wanted David to clue her in on what was going on between him and Erica.

Later, Erica and Brot entered Fusion, and he wondered what she needed him to do. Handing him a huge axe, she said, "A little remodeling. How's your swing?" Erica explained that she'd been having trouble with her office lock, but Brot worried that he'd be breaking into the place. She assured him that it was okay, because it was her office. Brot stared precariously at the axe, and she prodded him to get started. Erica received a distressing phone call and left.

Erica rushed to her loft to find Gayle in a tizzy about David. Gayle insisted upon knowing if David had gotten married, and Erica affirmed it. Brot arrived, and Gayle hid. Brot said he'd love to help Erica, but he just couldn't. Erica hastily closed the door on Brot, and he looked worried. Erica checked around the loft and discovered that Gayle had slipped out.

At the police station, a disappointed Liza bailed Damon out of jail. Damon apologized for lying. Damon claimed that he'd committed the crimes because he'd feared that Bailey would leave with Stuart if he couldn't pay the bills. With Bailey gone anyway, Damon didn't care if he went to jail. He felt that he had no one, but Liza murmured that he still had her.

Damon wondered why she'd still help him. Liza said that she could see that Damon loved Stuart. She felt that Stuart needed his father, and once she got Damon's charges reduced, Damon could convince Bailey that he deserved to be in Stuart's life. Just then, Liza received a troubling call from Colby and rushed to meet her daughter at the hospital.

Annie arrived at the hospital to find her family celebrating finding a donor. Adam rushed into JR's room to announce the news. As Marissa and JR hugged, JR asked who the donor was.

Adam stammered, and the family poured into the room to hear how the donor had surfaced. Adam said he'd had a one-night stand with a woman he'd met in a California winery. Years later, Sonia had called him to say that he had an eight-year-old son, Miguel. Sonia hadn't wanted Adam in Miguel's life, but she'd needed money. Adam hadn't heard from Sonia since, but he'd instructed Tad to track down Miguel, who was flying to Pine Valley at that moment.

In the corridor, Tad and Brooke gave Krystal the news about Miguel. Brooke disappointedly said fidelity hadn't been Adam's strong suit, but she was surprised that he hadn't fought to be in Miguel's life. Tad was sure that Adam would make up for lost time. Krystal praised Tad's effort, but Tad said he couldn't have done it without Adam. Krystal hugged Tad. Liza arrived in time to see the embrace, but Colby intercepted Liza before Tad saw Liza.

In the waiting room, Marissa and Krystal marveled at JR's miracle. Krystal gushed that it was thanks to Tad, who wouldn't give up. Marissa realized that Krystal still loved Tad. Krystal reasoned that she'd always love him, because he'd given her Jenny. Marissa uttered that Tad and Krystal shared much more than a house and child. Marissa encouraged Krystal to express her feelings to Tad, and Krystal left to check on the children.

In JR's room after Tad had left to meet Miguel at the airport, Adam assumed that JR wondered how Adam could turn his back on Miguel. JR replied that he was only thinking one thing-that he owed Adam his life. Dr. Kahn entered to explain how they'd proceed with the transplant, and JR was anxious to get started. Liza and Marissa took the adoption papers to JR, but Adam thought that the adoption was no longer necessary. A weakened JR said he wanted Marissa to be AJ's mother, regardless of the transplant, and the parents signed the paperwork.

In the hallway, Colby pulled Liza aside to explain that she'd just found out that Adam had gotten some random woman pregnant. Colby stated that a brother that she'd never known about was on his way to save JR. To Liza's surprise, Brooke approached. Brooke said that she'd returned to town for the Tempo position, but it had already been filled.

Annie pulled Brooke away, and Liza told Colby that Bailey and Stuart had left for good. Damon arrived, and Liza explained that Damon was guilty of the burglaries. He apologized for lying, and Colby smacked him in the face. "Dammit! I believed you!" she cried and ran off.

Aside, Annie told Brooke that it wasn't the time to discuss business. Brooke strode off, saying that the etiquette lesson wasn't needed. Scott approached Annie and guessed that Adam hadn't really given Annie the job. Scott felt that Brooke had more experience for it. Annie retorted that she had Adam's ear, and the job was as good as hers. Annie wondered why Miguel, a child from a one-night stand, would be readily welcomed into the family. Scott thought that Annie just worried that Miguel would steal Adam's attention.

Annie approached Adam and asked how long Miguel would be in town. Adam noticed Brooke, and Annie remarked that Brooke couldn't take the hint that it was a family matter. Adam said that Brooke was part of the family, and he strode toward her. Annie hurried behind him.

When Adam spoke to Brooke, she mentioned that Annie had beaten her to the Tempo position. Adam replied that it was the first he'd heard about it. Annie corrected that she'd said she was in the running for the position. Adam decided that because Brooke was interested, they could call off the search. He said that Brooke could mentor Annie, and it would be a win-win situation for everyone. Brooke and Annie scowled.

Later, Marissa cuddled with JR and assured him that the transplant would work. In the corridor, Tad rushed up to Adam and said that Miguel had never gotten off the plane."
