After hearing the two lawyers debate whether the case should be dismissed the judge states that there is enough evidence to convict Chelsea, but because the disk is missing, she is only sentenced to 200 hours of community service and a suspended license. Chelsea is elated at first, then starts to complain. Shawn overhears and is furious. Billie accuses Kate of tampering with the evidence. Hope is in complete shock over the outcome of the trial and asks Frankie for the divorce papers. Bo overhears.
Caroline makes a mysterious phone call and finally connects -- with Kayla! She urges her daughter to come home, but Kayla is reluctant. Caroline knows it's because of memories of Steve.

Belle rushes Mimi to the hospital. Mimi miscarries her baby and is distraught. If she had told the truth about Claire's paternity then the miscarriage wouldn't have happened. Shawn later arrives (from court) to console her. Belle and Philip feel sorry for their friends.
Lexie gets her test results back. They reaffirm that she doesn't have cancer. Grateful Sami goes to the chapel to pray, but is soon confronted by Tek. E.J. arrives and Tek returns to Lexie where he pleads with her for one more night together.
