Sami is horrified to come face-to-face with a soot-covered E.J. She screams at the top of her lungs, and races out of the bathroom into Lucas' arms. Lucas and Maggie scope out the ladies' room and find no trace of anyone. A hyperventilating Sami insists she's fine to go home, but the second she stands up, she faints. Lucas rushes her to the hospital, where Dr. Jacobs wants to keep Sami overnight to get her blood pressure down. Kate, meanwhile, finds E.J.'s business card in the restroom and confronts Sami. They end up in a screaming match, when Lucas rushes in and kicks Kate out.

Meanwhile, E.J. meets up with Celeste at the hotel, where it's revealed they've been working together the entire time! It was E.J.'s idea to set up the fire. He's been forcing Celeste to do his bidding by holding Lexie's whereabouts over her head! E.J. says he now knows Sami still loves him because she couldn't go through with killing him. Kate arrives and overhears that E.J. and Celeste are in cahoots!

She runs into Shawn, who is trying to get Duck to help them get off the island. Philip recovers and corners them, but when the sheriff shows up, he tells Philip there's nothing he can do since there is no extradition treaty between Tinda Lau and the States. Philip decides to take a room at the hotel, vowing to snatch Claire the way Belle and Shawn did in January.

Later, Maggie consoles Hope, and they're both relieved that Willow has no other member of their family to manipulate. Little do they know, Willow called Nick right after for help.

E.J. shows up at Sami's hospital room and blasts her for trying to kill him. Sami begs him to forgive her. She didn't set the cabin on fire; she didn't have the heart to do it. In an attempt to gain the upper hand, Sami tells E.J. she wants to start over with him. She begins to seduce him, but E.J. doesn't fall for it. Instead, he takes out a syringe and injects something into Sami's IV, saying that in two minutes it will put her to sleep forever. After E.J. leaves, Sami screams for help and Lucas comes running. When the two minutes are up, though, Sami is still alive. Lucas wants to know why E.J. would try to kill Sami. Before Sami can confess, E.J. returns, acting as if he hadn't been there before. Both Lucas and Sami wonder what E.J. is up to now.

Stephanie balks when Kayla asks her to be supportive of Steve. She tells her mom that her dad doesn't want their support; they're just wasting their time. Kayla won't accept this and lectures Stephanie on loving unconditionally. Stephanie is affected by this and when Roman arrives with the bad news that the police can't secure Steve's release from the state hospital, she volunteers to help break him out. Both Kayla and Roman forbid Stephanie from such a dangerous endeavor. Kayla gets an idea as to who would be a good person to go undercover at the hospital as a patient in order to spring Steve – his sister, Adrienne. Adrienne arrives, and after a tearful reunion with Kayla, agrees to save Steve.

Willow tells Nick that Hope wants custody of the baby after it's born. Willow has no intention of "abandoning" her baby. She needs to have a home and a job – and she asks Nick to post bail for her. He says this would put him in the middle since he's a cousin to both Hope and Shawn. Willow reminds him he's also a cousin to her baby. She finally persuades Nick to help her, and in thanks, she kisses the glass partition, leaving him affected.
