Holden has caught Simon going through Cal's things and he asks him why he is there anyway. Lily comes in and tries to calm Holden down and tells him that she invited Simon to stay at Cal's. Holden asks her why she didn't inform him of the situation. She tells him that she was going to but he has been a little busy lately. Holden goes back to Simon and demands that he tell him why he was going through the things at Cal's house. Holden says, sarcastically, that he is sure that Simon has a logical explanation. Simon looks down at the stack of old photo albums that he had found. Simon tries to explain the he was only looking at the architecture of the house. Holden tells him that they are going to call everything off. Lily says that they have already paid the contractors. Holden says that they will eat the cost. He grabs Lily and they head out the door. After they are gone, Simon get out the old photo and looks at it. He starts thumbing through the photo albums and says that he is not leaving without that pendant. He searches and searches the photos and can't find any of the women wearing the pendant. He gets frustrated and tosses the album aside. He says that he knows that the pendant is there somewhere, diamonds just don't disappear and he starts searching again. He says, "I have to find that pendant, time is running out."

Margo walks into Lucinda's den and she is there to see Bryant. Lucinda sends Matthew, the butler, to get Bryant for Margo. While he is gone, Lucinda fills Margo in on finding Bryant in New York and when they found him, he was with Abigail. Holden's Abigail. Lucinda tells Margo that is going to take all of them to get Bryant into shape. Matthew comes in and informs Lucinda that Master Bryant is not in his room.

When Lily and Holden get home, they continue to argue over Simon. Lily tries to convince Holden that Simon is a good guy. Holden won't listen to her, he does not trust him. Lily is tired of fighting and she tells Holden that they won't solve anything tonight. She tells him that she has missed him and just wants to spend time with him. She suggests that they go upstairs and take showers and go to bed. Holden says that he needs to check on Abigail. As they are scooting off to retire upstairs, the door opens and Abigail and Bryant come in. Abigail and Bryant have been out front talking. Abigail has told Bryant about the night that Molly fell and how she felt like she was to blame. Bryant has told her not to blame herself. Well, as they walk in the front door, Holden and Lily turn and Holden says, "Abigail!" She turns abruptly and sees Holden and Lily. She tries to explain that she went to see Molly and she left them a note. Holden says that they did not see her note and he thought that they were going to go to see Molly together tomorrow after she had had some rest. Abigail gets upset and says that no amount of rest is going to make Molly better. She runs out of the room. Bryant says hello to them and Lily says that she thought that he was supposed to be at her mother's house. He explains that he was worried about Abigail and came over to see how she was doing. He tells them about Chris always showing up where Abigail is and Lily says that they have had trouble out of Chris before. The doorbell rings and Lily answers the door and Lucinda comes marching in. She is wagging her finger at Bryant and tells him that he is a very a predictable kid and she hopes that he has performed his last disappearing act. She grabs him by his coat and drags him out of Lily's house. As she is dragging him away, Bryant is saying bye, see ya later, to Holden and Lily.

Katie and Henry are at Java Underground and Katie is telling Henry that she wants him to stop the stalker stuff. She is comfortable where she is and she doesn't want to get caught doing any pranks. Henry tells her that she is not the one doing the pranks and she has nothing to worry about. She says that if they get caught, it could make Molly look like Mother Theresa. Katie looks past Henry and sees Chris and Jake talking. She tells Henry to look and then says, "What is wrong with that picture?" Henry tells her that she is being paranoid. She says that Chris is talking to the editor of The City Times. She keeps watching them and Henry tells her to stop staring at them. She wonders what they are talking about. She decides to go over and see if she can find out anything. Jake is telling Chris that whoever had the pictures of him and Molly was working at WOAK that night. Katie comes up and interrupts the two. She tells Chris that she is sorry for sicking Holden on him when he was in New York. Chris tells her that both father and daughter are back in Oakdale. Katie says that if she knew of anybody that could talk Abigail into coming back to Oakdale, it would be Holden. Chris looks at Katie and says that the conversation between him and Jake is private. She chuckles a little and asks if they are talking about anything that she would be interested in? Jake butts in and says that it really wouldn't interest her. She says that she is not sure, she is interested in a lot of things. Jake says that he is sure she is. The three look at each other for a second and then Katie excuses herself. She goes over to Henry. Jake tells Chris that he blew that one. If he is going to find out who put the pictures on the monitor at WOAK, he is going to have to take notes. Jake tells him that he thinks that Katie could be a lead in finding the culprit. Chris tells him that he wants to find who did this, but not for revenge. Jake tells him that it is time for them to get sneaky.

Katie arrives home to Margo and Tom's. They are both upset because they didn't know where she was. She tells them that she is OK, she was at Java Underground with a friend from work. Tom questions it that is smart to be out in public like that where her stalker can see her. She tells them both to stop worrying about her and she thinks that the stalker has stopped, he hasn't done anything in a couple of days. She tells them that she needs to talk to them. She informs them that she is going to move out. They both try to fight her on it, but she is dead set for moving out. Finally, Tom gives in and says that they have an apartment and decorating ideas to look for. Margo teases him about decorating and they go to bed. Katie turns on some music and says that Henry's stalker game is over. She goes to the refrigerator to get something to eat. The camera switches to outside the house and someone is looking in the window at Katie in the kitchen.

Jake walks into Java Underground to see Isaac. He asks Isaac if this business is going to be legitimate or is it a cover for some operation? Isaac tells him that he is way too nosy. A delivery man walks by and asks who is going to sign for the black jack tables and craps boards? Jake snickers. Isaac tells the guy that he is the one that they will deal with and he can put everything in the back room and don't scratch anything. When the delivery guy is gone, Jake asks Isaac what is he up to? Is he going to be Donald Trump Jr. and turn Oakdale into another Atlantic City? Isaac explains that all the gambling will be done in the back room and by invitation only. He tells Jake that he will have a standing invitation, of course. Jake warns him about what kind of people gambling can bring in. He asks him why would he want to get involved in that? Isaac spouts off that not everyone can be a neuro-surgeon and this is who he is. Jake makes a comment about Isaac buying a business, he must be starting to settle down. Isaac says that as soon as he gets comfortable, he will be out of there. Jake gives Isaac a little lecture about when the right thing comes along that you should grab it and hold on to it. He tells Isaac that when Vicky died he slapped him back into reality. Jake confides in Isaac that he feels like a big brother to Isaac. Isaac tells him that that is funny because he already has a big brother and he is right there in Oakdale. Jake is surprised and he asks who is his brother? Isaac says that the illustrious Ben Harris is his brother. Jake says that that is great and he can reserve him and Ben a spot at the table. Isaac tells him that Ben is one person who will never be invited to his place. About that time, Emily comes waltzing into the club and says, "Well, if it isn't the Hardy Boys. Remember me, we haven't been together since the hospital." Jake looks at Isaac and says that his luck just went from bad to worst. Isaac asks if stalking isn't against the law in Oakdale and Jake agrees with him. Jake asks which one of them is her hapless victim? Emily says that she is there on a lead for a story. Isaac says that his life is off limits to reporters. Emily points at Jake and says, "Except him." Jake tells her that he is Isaac's friend, but she wouldn't know about that because she doesn't have any. She takes off her coat and throws it on Jake. She walks over to Isaac and says that there is a rumor that he is going to bring gambling to Oakdale. Isaac says that there is no law against gossiping. Emily keeps hounding Isaac and Jake tells her to drop it, but she keeps on. Isaac says that this would be the perfect time to get his stitches out. Jake says that he will come with him and get a procedure that would be less painful than listening to Emily, like have open heart surgery? Isaac tells him that he has to stay there and make sure Emily finds her way out. Jake begs him not to do this to him, but Isaac walks out the door, anyway. After he is gone, Emily tells Jake that she is glad that he gets so much enjoyment out of mocking her. Jake asks her why she has it in for Isaac? What did he ever do to her? She says that he just bugs her. He breezed into town and everything has been going his way. And, she adds, he dresses like a gangster. Jake tells her that some people judge the man, not the clothes. She asks him why he always takes his side. Jake tells her that Isaac saved him from taking a tumble whenever Vicky died and he would lay his life down for him. Emily gets mad, looks Jake straight in the face and says that she is going to be back on top and when her meteor rises, everyone is going to be blinded. She stomps out and Jake says, "I love fireworks."

Denise is sitting in her hospital bed with a bouquet of flowers laying across her lap. She is staring into space. Kim sticks her head inside the door and say hello to Denise. Kim comes into the room and tells Denise that she is looking much better today. She tells Kim that she is feeling better and that the people that she works with sent her the flowers. Denise tells Kim that she was just thinking what all Andy's family had done for her while she has been in the hospital. Kim tells her that they are not only Andy's family. Denise says that she meant Hope's family, too. Kim tells her that she is their family as well. Denise looks at her and says that she has a problem with that. Kim is surprised. Denise explains that her marriage to Andy is in name only and she feels like she is scamming the family. Denise talks about her feelings for Andy and that she feels trapped in this marriage. Kim tells her that she knows just how she feels. Kim tells Denise about her marriage to John and how he had blackmailed her to marry him, but she was in love with Bob. Denise questions why she didn't marry Bob. She tells her that Bob was married to her sister! Kim tells Denise that she has this big idea about how perfect their family is, but they have had their share of difficulties. Denise tells Kim that she didn't realize. Ben walks into the room and he has Denise's chart in his hand. He sees Kim in the room and then talks to Denise about her vitals and he is going to make out a prescription for her to take home in case of another infection. Kim asks why Denise would need a neuro-surgeon when she had the flu? Ben explains that she had such a high fever that he took her case to keep a watch on her, just for safety sake. Ben tells Denise that he is going to get her release papers ready and he will leave her to be with her mother-in-law and he leaves. Kim gives Denise a big lecture about putting Hope first and making her the focus. She tells her that nothing can go wrong if she keeps her thought on Hope. Denise turns to her and tells her thanks for being so honest with her. Kim says that they should make a pact, to always be honest with each other. Denise agrees. Kim leaves and Ben comes back. He is being very cold toward Denise and is treating her like a stranger. He is telling her what she should do the next few days and he has a prescription ready for her. Denise says that she remembers that he had his arms around her and was holding her the night she came into the ER. He tells her that a patient with a high fever has to be kept warm. She asks if he does that for all his patients? Do you sit by their bed and hold them and smooth their hair? He tells her that he has to check her lungs to see if they are clear. He brings his stethoscope close to her and she grabs it. She tells him that she wishes she could put that stethoscope to her heart and it would tell him everything that is in it. Andy walks in the door and Ben says that he will go and get her release papers so her husband can take her home. Ben leaves and Denise starts to cry. Andy looks at her and says that he will take care of everything. He catches up with Ben in the hall. He tells Ben that he had told Denise that he wouldn't mind if they saw each other on the side, but now he was having second thoughts. He explains that Denise has been under a lot of stress and he didn't feel it was good for her. Ben says that he will lay off, she is your wife. Andy says thanks and he starts to go back into Denise's room. Ben stops him and tells him that he had better take care of her. Andy tells him that he can bet on it. Andy goes back into Denise's room and she is sobbing. He sits beside her on the bed and hugs her and tells her not to be sad, everything is going to be all right. Andy and Denise pack up her things and she gets dressed and they go home. When they get there, Kim is sitting with Hope. Denise takes her and hugs her. Denise sees a mobile laying on the table that Andy had made with pictures of Andy, Denise and Hope on it. She comments on how wonderful it looks. Andy asks if he can get her some tea. She looks at the pictures on the mobile and then looks at a picture on a table of her and Ben. She tells Andy and Kim that she doesn't know how she will ever repay everything that they are doing for her.

Back at the hospital, Ben is sitting and feeling really low. Isaac walks by, but then comes back and says, "Ben, I...." Ben looks up and sees Isaac. He jumps to his feet and says, "Man, you have been picking at me ever since you came to Oakdale. Do you want a piece of me? Come on!!"

Wednesday, March 22, 2000

Bryant arrives to coax Abigail out of the house. Nancy volunteers to do some legwork at WOAK for grandson Chris. As Camille looks on Isaac offers Ben advice about moving on from Denise but Ben isn't willing to hear it.

Camille explains to Ben that Isaac was trying to reach out to him. John admits to Susan that he's worried about Camille's breast cancer checkup. Bryant bullies Abigail until she agrees to go to Java Underground with him. Chris agrees to let Nancy help him narrow down the list of suspects.

Jennifer reunites with Abigail at the club and is embarrassed when she's caught badmouthing Bryant. Nancy walks in as Katie is denying Henry's suggestion that her "stalker" strike again. Katie agrees to take Nancy on a tour of the studio, including the control room.

Camille senses something's afoot when John refuses to do any work. Nancy learns from Katie that detailed files are kept at the reception desk. Bryant advises Abigail to ignore Chris when she's distressed to see him show up at the club.

Chris asks Isaac if he's seen Jake and walks away when he sees Abigail laughing with Bryant. Jennifer tells Abigail that she's lucky to have found Bryant. John reveals he has a night of pasta and listening to an opera CD planned to take Camille's mind off her checkup.

Katie's disappointed when she learns Holden will no longer be driving her to work and loves Henry's suggestion that she take over Molly's apartment. Nancy gives Chris the assignment list for the WOAK control room for the day the photos were put on the monitors. John shares the fears he had at his own cancer checkups with Camille, who's touched.

Ben walks up to a bartending Isaac at the club and the brothers share an awkward conversation. Holden learns from Henry that Katie is moving into Molly's apartment and rushes off to try to stop her.

Nancy tells Chris she has her suspicions about Henry and urges him to not necessarily believe the photos were motivated by any grudges. Chris is surprised to see Katie at Oakdale Court and Katie tells him she's subletting Molly's apartment. Chris looks down and sees her name is on the list of people who had access to the control room.

Thursday, March 23, 2000

Denise apologizes to Andy for sleeping the day away. She asks him if he is hungry, and suggests that she start making dinner. Andy tells her that he and Hope were just discussing them all going out for dinner to a restaurant. Denise does not think that would be a good idea.

Simon goes over to Lily's house to inquire what his status is as far as the family room project. Lily apologizes for not calling, and gives excuses for Holden's behavior the other day. Lily tells him that after she discusses it with Holden, he should be able to resume the project the next day. Simon inquires next about the portrait sitting, but before Lily can answer, Abigail comes back from Java Underground. Lily introduces Simon as the architect that is working on the house. Abby mentions that she is a bit surprised that Simon is around so much, considering the architect that worked on the Williams' home only stopped by once to drop off the blueprints for the project to the contractors.

Chris looks at the list of people who had access to the WOAK control room on the day the pictures were exposed, and sees Katie's name listed. He asks what Katie is doing at Oakdale Courts, and Katie explains to him the circumstances behind her subletting Molly's apartment. Chris voices aloud how amazing it is that every time something bad happens to Molly, Katie seems to benefit from it. Katie expresses some surprise, and tells Chris that she has earned everything she has gotten at WOAK. Chris throws back at her all the things that have happened from Molly's food poisoning, to her falling down the stairs that Katie's career has received a push from. Katie wants to know what Chris is accusing her of, and demands to see what the letter says that he is holding in his hand. Chris is trying to keep her away from it, when Holden enters the scene and sees the two of them tangling. He pushes Chris off of Katie, and tells him that he better lay off, or he will have Holden to deal with. Katie is impressed at Holden standing up for her.

Denise tells Andy that she doesn't feel like flaunting her relationship with Andy in front of people. Andy tells her that they cannot live like hermits during the whole time they are married. He asks her if she is afraid of running into Ben. Denise tells him that everyone in the community knew that she was engaged to Ben, and she doesn't want to hurt his feelings more by having her new "family" be seen in public. Andy reminds her that she knew what she was getting into when she agreed to marry him, and that the social workers will never believe their union is real unless they act like a real couple around other people. Andy makes a few jokes, and Denise loosens up. She agrees to go out as long as it is strictly casual.

Simon explains to Abigail that since Lily and Holden have such busy lives, he has to communicate plans for the family room with them after hours. Abigail questions why an "Aussie" like him would waste time in a boring place like Oakdale, and Lily and Simon explain to her how he happened on this particular task. Simon mentions to Abby that he was in Chicago inspecting the architecture, and Abby questions him on a few buildings there that she knows about. It is clear that Simon has no idea about the buildings she mentions, but plays along. Abby tells him that she would love to discuss what a real architect thinks about the buildings. Simon is dumbfounded.

Katie tells Holden that Chris was not doing anything to hurt her, that they were just having a misunderstanding. Holden tells Katie to go up to Molly's apartment, that he wants to speak to Chris alone. Katie tries to talk him out of it (especially because she knows that Chris is hiding some kind of document from her), but Holden insists. Katie leaves, and Holden tells Chris to lay off Katie. Holden thinks that they were discussing the fact that Katie told him where Abigail was, and betrayed Chris's confidence. Chris tells him that they were not discussing that issue in the first place, and what they were discussing is between he and Katie. Holden tells him that it is his business now also. Katie spies on them from the top of the stairs.

Abigail continues to quiz Simon on some architectural related topics, and even catches him on a slip or two. Simon brushes it off, saying he has seen so many buildings lately that he can't keep them all straight. He quickly excuses himself, and reminds Lily that they need to schedule something soon. After he leaves, Abigail asks Lily if she can move some things around in her room. Lily approves, and asks her if she can watch the kids while she runs a few late night errands. Abby agrees, and thanks Lily for trusting her after everything she has done.

Denise emerges after changing her clothes to get acceptance from Andy on her choice of outfits. Andy tells her that she looks great, and reminds her to wear a warm jacket and scarf. Denise laughs at him, and tells him that now he is a parent, he will find that he "parents" everyone without even knowing it. As they leave the apartment, Denise sees Holden talking to Chris. They make a quick exit, and Katie cowers into a corner as not to be seen by anyone. Holden reminds Chris over and over again to stay away from both Katie and Abigail. He even goes as far as to accuse Chris of possibly being Katie's stalker. Chris tells him that he has the right to enforce rules where Abigail is concerned, but not about Katie. He denies being the stalker, and tells Holden that if he wants him to stay away from Katie, Holden should talk her out of moving to Oakdale Courts. Holden again repeats his warnings, and tries to leave. Chris tells him that if Katie were being stalked, why would she suddenly decide to move out on her own when she was living with a cop. Holden tells him to mind his own business. Chris looks at his list again, and knows he is right about Katie.

Andy and Denise are at Mabel's Red Hots having dinner. Andy leaves with Hope to refill Denise's drink, when Chris tracks them down. Denise, knowing the current tension between Chris and Andy, tries to get him to leave before Andy notices that he is there, but Chris wants to ask her some questions about WOAK. Andy comes back and tells Chris to stay away from his wife. Simon is on the phone with a woman named "Sheila" telling her to make sure that she backs up his story if Lily calls her for a reference. After he hangs up with her, he begins comparing the sketch he is making of Lily with the photos he has that looks so much like her. Lily knocks on the door, and explains to Simon that she doesn't have much time. Simon gives her his sheet of references, and Lily tells him that she will call on them in the morning. Simon asks Lily if she told Abigail where she was going, and Lily admits that she lied to her. Lily tells Simon that she feels bad, considering they are trying to teach Abby how to be trustworthy. They begin looking at Lily's old photo albums, and Simon continues sketching her. Lily tells him that every time they are together, all they do is discuss her life. Lily wants Simon to tell her more about him.

Holden tells Katie that he is not too thrilled about her living in the same apartment complex at Chris Hughes. Katie tells him that she and Chris go way back, and that he has nothing to worry about. Holden tries to leave, but Katie tells him that since he bothered to come all this way, the least she could do is hear him out. Holden agrees to stay and have dinner with her, but needs to call Lily first. He is surprised to hear from Abigail that Lily is out running errands at that time of night. He contacts her on her cell phone, and tells her that he is going to get in late that night. Lily doesn't reveal her whereabouts either. Holden agrees to stay and have dinner with Katie in hopes he can talk her into moving back into Margo's. When Katie takes his coat, she conveniently turns off his cell phone. Meanwhile, Katie's "stalker", complete in black outfit and ski mask, enters the Oakdale Court area.

Andy asks Chris what the hell he wants. Chris apologizes to Andy about the whole Molly incident, but Andy begins to get angry and tells Chris that he doesn't want to discuss it. Denise butts in, and tells them all that for Hope's sake, they should just let bygones be bygones, and not discuss the subject at that time. Andy agrees. Denise asks Chris what he wants to know about WOAK, but Chris is crestfallen that Andy does not want to have anything to do with him. He tells Denise and Andy that he wishes them a long, happy marriage, that is blessed with more beautiful babies like his niece. Denise looks uncomfortable, but thanks Chris anyway. Chris leaves disappointed. Denise recommends they leave. As they are putting on their coats, the waitress recognizes Andy from High School. He introduces Denise and Hope as his wife and child. Denise continues to be uncomfortable with the whole situation.

Katie explains to Holden about the comment that Chris made earlier about her benefiting from all of Molly's tragedies. She tells him that she feels by taking over Molly's rent, she is ensuring that Molly will have a place to call home once she wakes up. Holden is still uncomfortable about Katie living alone, but taking tells him that she is tired of being the "fifth wheel" at Margo and Tom's. Holden tells her that she is too nice for her own good. They toast to her future.

Simon is still sketching Lily, who begins to get uncomfortable about the fact that she has been gone so long. She tells Simon that she wants to get home before Holden does. She tells Simon, however, that she is sorry she didn't get the chance to learn more about him. Just then her cell phone rings. It is a frantic Abigail, telling Lily that Luke is gone. She has checked everywhere, but Luke is not in his bed. Lily tells Abby she will be right home, and tries to contact Holden. She is informed by the operator that his cell phone is not in service. Lily races out of the house, with Simon, who tells her that he is coming with her.

Andy and Denise are at home playing gin. Andy asks Denise if she had a good time, and Denise tells him that she was until his brother showed up. Andy tells her that he is glad that she didn't allow things to get out of hand, and that he really has no reason to be mad at Chris anymore. Andy tells her how happy he is, and Denise reminds him that their marriage is just a make-believe one. Denise asks him if he is happy living in the apartment, and he tells her that it is OK, but it is a little cramped. Denise brings up the fact that she always envisioned Hope growing up in a house, and her and Andy share the type of home they would like to have.

Abigail is frantically looking for Luke, when Lily and Simon return to the house. Abby tells them that Luke has only been missing for less than a half and hour, and Lily tells Abby to check the stables. She tries Holden again on his cell phone, but gets the same operator. Lily tells Simon that Luke is prone to sleepwalking, and that she didn't tell Abigail about that. Lily berates herself for not being there. Simon tries to tell her that everything is going to be OK, and they split up to find the boy.

Holden thanks Katie for the dinner, but tells her that he has to go. He wants to call and check up on Abigail and the kids, but Katie manages to talk him out of it. Katie thanks Holden for being so supportive. After he leaves, a call comes into the apartment. It is still Molly's voice on the answering machine, but the whispering male voice says, "Katie, I know you are there, and I am coming to get you!" Katie picks up the phone, laughing, and tells whom she thinks is Henry that he has a flair for the dramatic. She tells the man on the phone that at first she really hated this whole "stalker" idea, but now its seems to be working. The man on the other end just hangs up. Outside, we see the masked man heading up to Katie's apartment, when he stumbles on some plants. They make a loud enough noise that the stalker scrambles for the bushes. Chris comes out of his apartment to see what all the commotion is about. He finds nothing, and returns to his apartment.

Denise tells Andy how nice the evening was, and heads for bed. Andy kicks back on the couch and smiles.

Holden returns home to find Lily frantically looking for Luke. Holden tries to calm her down, but Lily has checked everywhere, and is afraid someone might have taken him this time. She tells Holden that Simon is looking for Luke too, and when Holden questions his involvement, Lily gets upset and tells him that she tried to call him, but he wouldn't pick up his calls. Holden checks his phone and discovers it has been turned off. Just then Simon emerges from a backroom with a sleeping Luke. Seems Luke had fallen asleep behind some sheet rock in the family room that he uses for a fort during the day. Holden thanks him, and takes Luke off to bed. Lily, crying, kisses Simon on the cheek, and thanks him whole-heartedly for finding her son. Simon realizes how upset Lily is and makes a quick exit. Katie is dressed for bed, and is snooping around Molly's place. She finds some letters in a drawer, and sits down on the couch to read them.

Meanwhile, the stalker peers in on her through her living room window. As the scene ends, he removes his mask.


Friday, March 24, 2000

When Julia shows up at the police station to cover a story, Hal assigns her to work with Jack. Simon volunteers to help Lily look through the family photos. Katie is disappointed to see Henry at her door and not Holden, but Henry warns her that Chris has been investigating the source of the photos. Chris fingers Katie to an incredulous Jake.

Chris explains his case against Katie. Katie expresses regret at getting involved with Henry and his schemes. When she opens her housewarming gift from him, she's not amused to see it's a fake Emmy. Jake lectures Chris about the need to gather more facts against Katie if they are to catch her.

Simon grills Lucy about what was passed down to her by her family, perking up when she mentions jewelry. Jack and Julia decide to tell Hal the truth but he doesn't believe them when they insist they're not together. Jack gets a package from Carly containing a leather jacket. Katie gets a series of threatening phone calls and believes it's Henry. Meanwhile, at the station Henry suggest to Holden that Katie do a special on stalkers, insisting it was all Katie's idea.

Chris looks through Katie's garbage and discards the fake Emmy. Jack reads the note Carly wrote, which reveals that the jacket was to be a present waiting for him when he got returned to work from their honeymoon. An Australian woman leaves a message on Lily's answering machine calling Simon a liar and a thief.

When Henry calls to alert Katie about the stalker special, Katie berates him for making the threatening calls. Katie then sees a man in a ski mask and panics, but Henry doesn't believe her and hangs up. Katie then calls Holden, who advises her to lock herself in and wait for him. Henry ignores Holden's order to call 911, believing Katie deserves a few minutes alone with Holden first.

Jack stops Julia from leaving when she decides she's going to tell Lisa the truth about them. Simon castigates himself when he gets too close for comfort and scares Lily away. Jake tells Henry he wants to do an article on Katie. Henry lets it drop that Katie has a stalker and insinuates that she has many enemies, including Chris. Chris hears Katie's screams and manages to rip off the ski mask on the fleeing stalker, but he still escapes. Holden then collars Chris and prevents him from running after him.

Lily plays her phone message and Simon is frozen when he hears the woman's voice. You lied to me, Lily accuses him. Jack admits to Julia he's glad she was there when he got Carly's package. Henry calls Jack and reports that Katie saw her stalker. Holden tells Chris he's stopping him from stalking Katie further.
