At the Beacon Hotel

Alan met with Edmund to plan Alex's downfall. Alan said his sister had a sensational appetite for scoundrels and this was why she would fall in love with Edmund. Alan explained that Alex fell in love with a musician and his father put an end to it. That was why Alex was so guarded and careful and became attracted to men that are safe. But then she fell in love with a man that was capable of fighting for her. Alan said when it came to love Alex was as naive as a 12 year old. He suggested that Edmund charm her to win her over. Edmund agreed to accept the challenge. Alan wanted him to distract her and catch her off guard.

Edmund told Alex that he missed her very much. She wanted to know why he stayed in Springfield and he reminded her that the rest of family was there. Edmund said she was a very important part of his plan. He said he expected her to fall madly in love with him. He told her he was different than any other man she had been with.

Olivia said she could tell Alan it was wedding jitters. Phillip said that might give him another heart attack.

If Dr. Pierce gave Alan the green light, they will show him the tape. As Olivia was leaving she ran into Alan.

Edmund said that was good enough. Alex doesn't want him to fall madly in love with her and get hurt. They had a bottle of champagne to celebrate. Alex said she needed to leave.

Cassie tried to get Danny to move. Cassie suggested they go down in the second wine cellar since it wasn't used much. Once they were in the cellar, Cassie had Danny drink some water.

She lay beside him to keep him warm.

At the Gym

As Father Ray was working out, Tony reminded him that there was no sign of Danny. Ray said there was no redeeming of Carmen. Tony realized that Ray knew something.

At the Beach
