Forgotten in the shadows, Bridget cries as she watches the man she loves renew his commitment to her mother.

Bridget doesn't agree and informs her sister that she is still determined to tell them tonight . After the ceremony Brooke tells Nick that she wants to get married every year. She then hurries upstairs to prepare for their "honeymoon." An excited Nick starts up the stairs after her, but is stopped by Bridget.

At Taylor's, Hector tells Phoebe that Shane is a thief and has a restraining order against him. Phoebe is shocked, but she still tries to defend him. Then Shane grabs the rap sheet from Hector. He explains the robbery charge by telling Phoebe that he stole a sandwich when he first moved to LA and was broke. Hector demands to know why he failed to appear in court. Shane says he did go to court that day but had to leave at 1pm because he had a job interview, since he left before he had been seen they considered it a failure to appear in court. Still not satisfied Hector asks him about the restraining order. Shane swiftly replies that he got that when he quit his job as a security guard at a bank, adding that it was standard procedure for that bank to do this to security guards once they quit their position there. Shane then angrily leaves, heading to his room. Phoebe follows him upstairs and assures him that she believes his story and doesn't care much for Hector's opinion. Shane tells her he paid for the sandwich as soon as he got his first check but admits there may still be a warrant for his arrest. Phoebe tells him she knows he isn't a criminal. Attempting to get closer to her, Shane gets her to change his bandages. While she is doing this, Shane watches her, and realizes that he might be able to get more than a million dollars out of this deal. Acting like he just wants to thank her, Shane asks Phoebe to come out to dinner with him when he gets his next check and she accepts. Hector eavesdrops outside the door. Not trusting this guy at all, Hector decides to make another call to his friend to checkout Shane's story.
