In the barn, Will is trying to convince Jess that it's time for him to go his separate way. He is tired of being on the run and competing for her love.

At the hospital, Bo regains possession of Matthew's blood sample and tells Lindsay to stay out of all aspects of Matthew's paternity case. He is suspicious of Melanie's behaviour toward Lindsay, Colin and himself. Lindsay laughingly explains to Colin that Lanie believes she has lost it and proceeds to mimic her tragic insanity.

Bo observes Lindsay, Lanie and Colin leaving the hospital together.

Viki is sleeping on the sofa when she is startled awake by Todd. She informs him that Ben is looking for him in Ohio as they became nervous after learning there was no real house detective at the hotel where the kids were staying (like Todd told her there was). Todd tells his sister that Will has decided to go out on his own so Jessica is coming home. Viki can't understand why Jess would leave Will but Todd suggests that Will broke his promise and took off. Viki thinks that Todd made him leave though her brother denies that. She will never forgive him if he's hurt Jess.

Jess admits to Cris that she was wrong about Will again, that he's totally irresponsible. She knows she can always count on Cris because he's always been there for her and she feels badly that she hurt him because of Will. Jess is sure now, Cris is the one she loves, she's chosen him. Cris wonders why she's saying that and thinks it's only because she's hurt and angry over Will's leaving. He wants it to be about the two of them. Jess disagrees that it's about Will and asks Cris to make love to her. He will make it safe for her, he promises, he loves her.

At Crossroads, Joey is trying to kill Kevin with the pool cue as Kelly screams for them to stop. As Colin arrives and breaks them apart, Joey tells his brother he will kill him. He tries to leave but Colin thinks he's drunk and won't let him go. Joey informs him that he's not the one who would be drinking and he hates bars anyway. Kelly tries to go with him but he gives her the keys to lock up(that Sophia gave to him before she left). He removes his wedding band, drops it on the floor and tells both his wife and his brother to go to hell. After he leaves, Kelly wonders why Kevin even followed Joey but Kevin only wanted to try to set things straight. He can't hurt his brother any more and can't be with Kelly even though she says they want each other. He only wants to go home alone and that will be his sentence. Once he leaves, Colin pours Kelly a drink of brandy to make her feel better. He offers to sit and talk with her, even if it's about the weather. He tells her the sun will always shine again after the storm and that he's been there himself. She didn't create the mess herself, he gently tells her. It takes two and sometimes even three people. He offers her a ride but she'll drive to Dorian's house. He accepts the keys to lock up.

Nora wakes up and spies an envelope addressed to Lanie from Colin. She writes a note asking for help and wonders if Lanie knows what her husband is capable of. She instructs Lanie to give the note to Bo or Sam. She eyes the envelope near the foot of the bed and attempts to reach it so that she can put the note inside. After much pain and struggling, Nora reaches her goal, only to hear a noise. Thinking it's Colin, she manages to get the note into the envelope, which contained divorce papers, and make it back to her place in bed. Her book drops on the floor.

Sam is reading to Matthew in the hospital, discouraged because treatment isn't working. He goes out to Bo in the hallway, to tell him of Matthew's status and they wonder if the diagnosis was right. Just then Asa and Max come by but Bo orders them to leave. Asa is checking on his grandson and wonders why Sam is there. As Asa tries to go into the room, Sam blocks his way and warns him to stay away from his son. Asa informs him that his only son is Will, an escaped convict. Sam and Bo side together against Asa and Max as they argue over the care of the youngster. Asa will get a court order for a new DNA test. Bo insists that none of this is Asa's or Max's business and that it would be between him and Sam and Nora if she were alive, though she's dead because of Asa. Sam has gone back into Matthew's room and Bo informs his dad that even if Matthew were his, he wouldn't let Asa near him and that he would let Sam keep the boy first. The old man accuses Bo of sounding like a Rappaport, even though he's a Buchanan. Max suggests the two of them return home and make some phone calls.

It's Will, walking into Colin's house! He hears a noise and starts upstairs, calling for Lanie. After the phone rings and no one answers it, he realizes that no one is home. He sits down in a living room chair.

After making love, Jess talks about what a fool she's been but Cris tells her it doesn't matter. He will take her home and they will face things together. He will always protect her.

Viki has two questions for Todd, she says. Where is Jessica and why didn't she come home with him? Todd wanted to protect her, he says, as he's known by the cops. Viki still believes that her brother has manipulated the entire situation and she doesn't want him involved anymore. He storms out, telling her to let Ben do it, but once he's out of the room he gloats about fooling everyone. He always wins, he happily tells himself.

Cris tells Jess they should leave and he'll stick by her. Jess is curious because she thinks something else is going on. He finally tells her that Viki is getting worse.

Will is sleeping in the chair when he hears Colin arrive home. He manages to hide as Colin gets in and goes upstairs, mentioning Scarlet's name. The doctor finds Nora lying in bed, reading and wonders what she's doing up so late. She looks flushed, he thinks, but Nora jokes that it's from all the exercise she's been getting. Plus, he's been awfully noisy all night and doesn't look so good himself. He looks confused but passes it off and says that he's been involved with a medical emergency. She suggests he kidnap the new patient and put him in the bedroom next door. Colin is hardly amused, but there's a noise again and he goes to investigate. He finds nothing - Will has escaped to the cellar. He wonders who Scarlet is.

Sam is keeping Matthew company as Bo watches from outside the room.

In Antonio's apartment, while Antonio looks on, Roseanne apologizes to Jessica and Cristian about interfering in their lives. She wishes she could tell Will how sorry she is that she turned him in to the police. Jessica believes that actions speak louder than words and turns away in disgust. Roseanne admits to being jealous of Jessica since she first met her. She was jealous of her being "so blonde, so beautiful and so rich." She had everything, including Cristian. Roseanne hopes that Jessica can forgive her some day. She professes to Cristian that she really did love him and hopes that he will not hate her. She gives Cristian her wedding band. Cristian and Jessica leave.

Alone with Antonio, Roseanne admits that what she said was too little too late. She will always love Cristian but wants to find someone who will love her back. Antonio agrees with her that she looked like a loser chasing after Cristian. He then tells her that "she's beautiful, smart, interesting and rich." She just needs to wait for the right guy to find her.

In Colin's House, Will confronts Colin about the screaming he has been hearing and demands to see Aunt Lanie. Colin explains that Aunt Lanie is not there and that some woman are screamers in bed. Colin does not hide his displeasure towards Will being in his home uninvited and demands that he leave immediately! Will refuses. Colin offers him money and Will explains that it is not money he needs but a way out of the country. He needs Aunt Lanie to change his appearance. He also needs his Uncle Ben. Colin explains that his home is not a safe hideout because there are people in and out of his house all day long. Will stubbornly argues that he would be safe because he has been hiding in the basement since last night and even "Scarlett upstairs" did not know he was there. Colin looks uneasily up the stairs. Will insists that Colin bring Aunt Lanie to him. He gives Colin his watch, which has his birthday inscribed on the back, to prove to Aunt Lanie that he knows where Will is hiding. Will then goes down into the basement and is startled to hear the door locked behind him. Will bangs on the door and cries out to Colin.

On the hospital rooftop, Melanie breaks off her kiss with Bo. When he questions her about the distance that he feels that is growing between them she announces that she is going back to Colin.

Bo declares their kiss did not feel like a kiss and that Colin is a jerk and does not deserve another chance. Melanie leaves.

In the hospital lounge, Sam confronts Lyndsey and demands to know what scheme she is planning concerning Bo and Lanie. He insists that she had her chance with Bo and blew it.

When she went to meet them she found Max at Asa's cabin. Jessica and Cris had fled. Viki leaves. Dr. Ketchum walks in and announces that Matthew's fever has broken and that he can go home tomorrow. Sam is ecstatic! As Sam is rushing to give "his son a big hug" he runs into Lanie. She tells him that she will not be seeing Bo anymore. Lindsay overhears their conversation and attempts to comfort Lanie. Afterwards, she leaves to look for Bo on the roof.

On the hospital roof, Lindsay finds Bo and declares she is the only one for Bo and that she will always love him. She wishes that Lanie had not hurt him. Lindsay points out to Bo that all the "good women" in his life have hurt him and cheated on him. That they could not be trusted with his love. Bo tells her he does not want to discuss Lanie with her. Sam walks in and tells Bo the good news about Matthew. Bo is delighted and thanks Sam for letting him be there last night. He then queries Sam about resolving the question concerning Matthew's paternity.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Colin confronts Lindsay about Nora. She does not want to waste her time talking to Colin because she believes that Bo will soon be coming for her. Colin becomes angry. He claims that he has a "get out of jail free card" and shows her Will's watch. She begs him to tell her where he is hiding. Colin informs her that he will turn Will in to the police unless she takes the rap for Nora's kidnapping.
