Reese has no pity because he is sure he recognizes the girl doll as the one who stole his dad's sports car.

Beth comes to Sheridan and Luis' aide. Antonio goes off on Luis when he over hears Luis profess his love to Sheridan. Beth intervenes more for her own sake than for any other reason. She silently shoos Sheridan out of the room and pretends to Antonio that Luis was talking to her not Sheridan. Antonio buys the ruse and apologizes to everyone for thinking so badly of them.

At the mansion, Antonio asks Father Lonigan to help him arrange a wedding to bind the Lopez- Fitzgerald family to the Crane family. Father Lonigan lets it slip that he knows about the great love match. He explains that he had the church papers for the marriage drawn up some time ago. Antonio can't figure out how the priest would have known about the marriage since he and Sheridan haven't been in Harmony for very long. Father Lonigan says everyone knows about the impending marriage of Sheridan and Luis.

He asks to speak privately with Sheridan and Luis. Antonio questions why but Father Lonigan is silent about his reasons. He tells Luis and Sheridan that there is no way he can perform a marriage ceremony uniting Antonio and Sheridan. He explains that it would be wrong since it is Luis and Sheridan who should be married. This gives Theresa an idea. She tells Father Lonigan about Ethan and Gwen's impending marriage.

Father Lonigan tells Sheridan he will marry her to the man she truly loves. Sheridan envisions telling Antonio the truth, that she loves Luis. She sees him grab his head and fall to the floor dead. This vision frightens her so much that she lies and says she loves Antonio more than Luis and wants to marry him. Luis is heartbroken. Sheridan tries to apologize. Luis tells her to forget it.
