Georgia is walking through the Walsh mansion talking to her stuffed animal that her mother gave her before she disappeared. She is saying that she wishes that she had someone to talk to, but Sam is gone and Aunt Lu is still in the rehab center. Then she hears someone from behind her and she turns around and Lucinda is there in her wheel chair. She runs over to her and wants to hug her. She asks Rolf if it would be OK and he says yes. She hugs Lucinda and tells her how much she has missed her. Rolf leaves and Georgia sits down to talk with Lucinda. She starts to tell her about Eddie. Lucinda makes a face. Georgia reminds her that she sent letters to Lucinda telling her about she and Eddie. Lucinda says, "When?" Georgia asks if she means when did they get together? Georgia tells her that they just woke up one day and realized that they were meant to be together. She tells Lucinda that she has a problem, she is holding back some information from Eddie about his father. She says that she knows who his father is and if he was doing that to her she would be very upset with him. She adds that Alec Wallace has other ideas. Lucinda says, "Alec Wallace?" Georgia tells her that Alec is Eddie's father. She looks at Lucinda and tells her thanks. Lucinda says, "What?" Georgia tells her that just talking to her she know now what she has to do.
Eddie is working on the books at the club. Alec walks in and makes a comment about Eddie looking rather peaked. Alec asks him if he is sleeping? Eddie says that he hasn't been sleeping much lately and the private investigator that Margo helped him find woke him up in the middle of the night to tell him that he is getting close to finding out who is his father. Alec tells Eddie that he has been working too hard lately and he needs to take some time off. Alec gives Eddie some keys and says that they are to his cabin in the woods. He wants Eddie to take some time off and go enjoy himself and unwind. Eddie says that he can't go because the P.I. is going to be calling him. Alec says that he will have all the calls forwarded to his cell phone and when he gets the call he will make sure Eddie is notified. Eddie agrees. Georgia comes in and she tells Eddie that her Aunt Lu is home again. Eddie says that is fantastic, but does that mean that she can't go away with him for a weekend getaway? Georgia says that she could probably work it out to go with him. Alec tells Eddie to go check out the stock room before he goes away for the weekend. Eddie leaves and Georgia tells Alec that he will tell Eddie that he is his father before they leave for the weekend or she will tell him while they are gone. Alec is not happy and when Eddie comes back in the room, Alec tells him that there is something that he needs to say to him. Alec is beating around the bush and then they hear a crash. Eddie says that the beer truck ran into the building again. Georgia says that she will take care of it and Eddie says that he has to go take a look. When he is gone, Alec tells Georgia that if he tells Eddie before they go, he will not relax during their weekend away. He says that he will tell him when they get back. Georgia says that he will come up with another excuse later. Alec tells her that he will make a bet with her. If he does not tell Eddie when they return, she can tell him and he won't stand in her way.
Lily and Holden are scurrying around the house trying to get Luc ready to go to day camp. The door bell rings and Denise is at the door when Lily answers it. Denise has brought some of Hope's things that she left at her house. She asks Lily if she can pick Hope up and Lily tells her that she can. Denise picks up Hope and Lily makes a comment that Denise has gotten herself around so early in the morning when she has worked so late. Denise says that she got used to getting up with Hope when she was staying with her. Denise says that she has to get going and she hands Hope back to Lily and runs out. Holden comes in and asks if Denise has left already and Lily said that she had to, the longer she stayed the harder it was to not take Hope with her.
Denise is at Java and Ben walks in. They start to talk and Denise tells Ben that she took all of Hope's things back to the Snyder's today. She says that since they have found their other daughter, she thought that they would need all the bibs and things. She makes a comment about the Snyders' being better parents than she could ever be. Ben tells her that she can be a good parent too. She says that the Snyders' can give Hope so much more than she can. She is a single mother and she couldn't give Hope very much. Ben gives her a lecture. He says that raising a child is not about material things, it is about giving that child love. Denise brings up again about being a single mother and Ben asks her whose engagement ring she is wearing? She smiles at him and he adds that all they have to do is set a date and say "I do." He takes out his cell phone and says that he is going to call Reverend Dansby right now. She stops him and says that she can't do that to him.
Back at the Snyder house, Lucinda is out front telling Rolf to hurry with her wheel chair. She sits in the chair and they ring the bell. Holden lets them in and Lily is so happy to see her mother, but she is worried about her being out. Rolf tells Lily that Lucinda wanted to see her grandchildren. Lucinda points at Faith and says, "Play, hold." Lily says that she is not sure that Lucinda is strong enough to hold the baby, but maybe they could hold her on her lap. Lily tells Lucinda that Luc made her a card and she goes to find it. Lucinda sends Holden out of the room to get her something to drink. When they are both gone, Lucinda says, "Clear?" Rolf replies, "Clear." Lucinda gets out of her wheelchair and goes over and picks up Faith. She is telling her how much she looks like her mommy and then Lucinda hears Lily coming back. She runs to her wheelchair with the baby still in her arms. Lily walks back into the room and sees Lucinda holding Faith. Rolf tells Lily that he handed the baby to Lucinda, he didn't think it would hurt if he was standing right there.
Eddie and Georgia arrive at Alec's cabin in the woods. They are amazed at how nice it is. Eddie says that as nice as the cabin is, if Georgia wasn't there with him, it would be zero. Eddie remembers that Alec was going to tell him something. Georgia says that whatever it was, she is sure that Alec will tell him when they return. Georgia says to Eddie that they haven't been alone like this since they won the hotel suite at the class reunion. They start to kiss.
Georgia and Eddie are on the bed, kissing. Eddie pushes Georgia's bag off the bed onto the floor. He jumps up and says that he hopes that he didn't break anything. He picks up her stuff and puts them on the bed. He picks up her stuffed animal that Sam had given her and hands it to her. They talk about Sam and how Georgia misses her and then they discuss Eddie's father. Georgia thinks back about telling Lucinda that she is hiding the truth from Eddie about his father. As she snaps out of her flashback, Eddie is asking her what she wants to do now. She isn't sure and he says, "Worms." She doesn't know what he is talking about. He tells her that they need to look for worms so they can go fishing and catch something for their dinner. They head out the door to go fishing. When Eddie and Georgia return, Georgia is all wet. She tried to save the fish when Eddie caught it and ended up in the lake. She tells Eddie that she hopes that he is not mad that she ruined dinner and he says that he isn't mad and she is beautiful. She goes into the other room to get out of her wet clothes. Eddie says that he will make a fire for them and he looks for something to eat. She comes back out in nothing but a towel wrapped around her body. He turns and looks at her and says, "Wow, you are gorgeous." They start to kiss and Georgia pushes Eddie away again. Eddie wants to know if he has done something wrong and Georgia tells him no. Then he wants to know if she is going to break up with him and she says of course not. She tries to explain to him that she wants them to know each other completely before they take the step of sleeping with each other. He says that he already knows her completely, but he is willing to wait until she feels it is right. She turns to him and says that she loves him and that is never going to change. Later, Georgia is standing at the door looking at the moon and she tells Eddie to come over and look at it, too. He comes over to the door and she asks him if he ever looked at the moon and wandered that someone he loved was looking at that exact same moon. He asks her if she is thinking about Sam. Georgia tells him that everyday she goes to the mailbox in hopes of getting a letter. She even checks the very back of the box thinking that a letter got stuck back there. He tells her about the time after his mother was gone, he would go to the park where she died and try to conjure her up. He goes on to say that once, he thought that he felt her presents and she said to him to go forward and stop looking back, she would always be right by his side. Georgia says, "Thank you, Eddie." Eddie asks her for what? She says that he can always make her feel better by what he says or just holding her. Eddie is getting into his sleeping bag and he says, "That's it!" and he hops in his sleeping bag over to Georgia who is in the bed. He tells her that he will lay beside her all night and hold her, to comfort her.
Hal and Margo are looking at the picture of Alec and some men. Hal tells Margo that all the men are dead in the picture except for Alec and two other men.

Alec has come in the room and says that Hal doesn't need to give Margo advice any longer, because she does not work for Hal, she is working for him now. Margo and Hal gets their wits about them and change their gears and pretend that they are arguing over Margo quitting the police force and going to work for Alec.

Hal is listening to them talk. He gives her a kiss and says that he will buy her lunch. She says that she has to clean out her locker yet and she will meet him at the Lakeview.

She comes over to the table and Tom reminds her that they had said that if they saw one another, it would be about Daniel specifically. She says that it is about Daniel and having family. Tom tells her that it is not a good time to talk about this. She looks at Bob and asks if he would like for her to bring Daniel over to the house sometime so he and Kim could see him. Bob tries to tell her that it is not the time and she interrupts him and says that she has pictures of the baby. While she is showing Bob the pictures, Tom looks up and sees Margo enter the dining room. Right away she sees Tom and Emily. Bob turns and sees Margo is there. He tells Tom that it would be a good time to go talk with Margo about what they had discussed earlier. Emily is not happy about this.

Emily starts talking again and Tom tells her that it is time for her to leave. She goes, reluctantly. Tom looks at Bob and says that his life is a mess. Bob says that if he doesn't keep the lines of communications open with Margo, it is going to become even more of a mess. Tom says that he just doesn't know how to do that. Bob says that he does know how and he jumps up and walks over to where Margo is sitting and asks her to join them. (Alec is not at the table) She gets up and walks over with Bob and as they get to the table, Bob takes out his pager and says that he is getting a page. Tom says that he didn't hear it and Bob says that it is one of those vibrating ones and he leaves them alone. Margo sits down. Tom asks her about her new job. He adds that he thought that she would never give up being a cop. She says that just like him, she got bored with the same thing and she has found out that she like salmon instead of burnt chili at Al's and she likes to get dressed up and going to parties. Alec walks up and says that he has a party he wants to take her to, if Tom can spare her? Tom says, "Sure, you kids have a great time." As they are walking away, Margo asks Alec what party are they going to. He says there isn't a party, it was a ploy to get her away from Tom. She asks him about where they are going? He says that they are going up to his suite. She says, "Oh, OK." And they leave.
