Sonny had to go and Carly, worried that he would find out about the paternity test, told him she was fine. Dr. Meadows told Carly that the amnio had shown a healthy baby. She handed Carly the folder with the paternity test results. Courtney encouraged Carly to open them up and find out. Carly hesitated.

Faith implored Jason to let her go, insisting that Courtney would hate him if he killed her. Jason informed Faith that he wasn't going to kill her, that her silent partner would.

Emily awoke to find herself in a hospital bed. Zander explained that she had passed out. Emily panicked thinking he had told the Quartermaines that she was taking drugs. Zander told her he had not said anything about the drugs but that Monica had found her passed out on the floor. Monica entered to see Emily. Zander pressed Emily to tell Monica the truth, and when she would not, Zander told Monica that Emily was addicted to painkillers. Emily asked Zander to leave. Alone together, Monica told Emily that she knows she has cancer.

Emily begs Monica to tell the rest of the family ~ AND Zander! ~ that Emily just got hooked on painkillers while she was recovering from a broken back. Emily begs Monica to help her to keep the truth from Zander so that Zander and Emily can just be together for what is left of Emily's life without the threat of cancer treatments hanging over them.

Sonny names Ric as Faith's silent partner. Ric tries to explain that he believed that Faith was a threat to Sonny, but Sonny accuses Ric of being the one who paid for the hit woman who shot up Carly's Club and Sonny informs Ric that Ric IS going down for the threat to Sonny's family. Sonny informs Ric that the only thing Ric is going to be allowed to say is to give Sonny a reason WHY Ric became so involved with Faith in tormenting Sonny's family. When Sonny takes Ric inside the Safe House, Ric discovers that he shot a mannequin with a blond wig. Ric continues to insist to Sonny that he proved himself to Sonny over and over again, including getting Brenda and Jason acquitted for Alcazar's murder and taking the bullet meant for Sonny during the shooting at Carly's club.

After Courtney leaves the room, Carly tearfully confesses to Sonny about the night she spent with Ric and confides her conviction that Ric KNEW Carly had been drugged by Fowler and took advantage of the opportunity to rape Carly. At the same time, Jason moves Faith to a new Safe House. Faith tries to appeal to Jason's humanity as she begs for her life. Faith warns Jason that the Police will suspect Jason if Faith disappears, since the Police already know that Jason has been hassling Faith. Then Faith reminds Jason that Courtney SAW Jason drag Faith away and will know that Jason pulled the trigger if Faith disappears.

Jason returns to the Safe House where Faith has been stashed, dismisses the guard and prepares to whack a protesting Faith. When Sonny returns to the Safe House where he left Ric stashed, Sonny discovers that his guard is dead, and that Ric is missing. In the meantime, a wounded Ric arrives at Liz's empty Studio and slips inside. When Liz arrives, she rushes to Ric's side and frantically begins trying to stop the bleeding. However, as Liz tries to tend to Ric's wounds, Taggert arrives at Liz's door and demands that Liz open up.

Skye tries to visit Emily. Edward, Alan, and AJ object to it since she was the one who contributed to what happened to Emily when she broke her back and had to go on painkillers. Alan tries to be gentle with her while explaining it wouldn't be good for Emily to see her right now. Meanwhile, Zander tells Emily he loves her and she tells him she never stopped loving him when she was away even when she tried to. Alan, AJ, and Edward come to visit her. Edward goes ballistic when he sees Zander sitting on her bed kissing her. He tries to throw him out but Emily tells Edward to leave him alone and explains that Zander is the one who told Monica about her drug problem when he caught her doing drugs and wanted to put her in rehab and she wouldn't. She makes them apologize to Zander for accusing him of getting her on drugs again. Alan and AJ apologize and shake his hand but Edward is the last holdout. He reluctantly apologizes for accusing him but refuses to apologize and admit he was wrong to call him all those names. Alan and AJ are disgusted with him and tell him which causes a fight. Monica comes in and tells them to all leave since Emily needs her rest. Alan refuses to leave. Zander tells Emily he will be sticking by her through the whole thing. Alan tells her that he is sticking by her since she stuck by him when he failed her the time he was an addict. Emily tells him he was a role model for her when he got off the drugs and recovered. Monica looks at her with guilt since he doesn't realize they are lying about her cancer. Later, Rae Cummings shows up to see Skye after she called and told her it was important they speak in person. Skye is surprised she came so quickly. Skye tells her that she needs to know the truth about whether Alan is her father or not and mentions Tracy's in town. Rae is visibly upset by that news and knows what it means for her. Tracy comes over and stands behind Rae and announces her presence. Tracy reiterates what she knows about Rae's affair with some guy other than Alan. Skye asks Rae to tell her that what Tracy is saying isn't true and that Alan is really her father. Rae can't look at her and Skye's worst fears are true. She confronts her mother in front of Tracy. Rae doesn't answer Skye right away and confronts Tracy. Tracy treats Rae like she is trash and refuses to hold back what she knows. Skye demands to know the truth from Rae. Rae admits that Alan isn't her father. Tracy hands Skye a card with her bank account on it and tells Skye to transfer the $5million into it. Skye takes the card and rips it in half. She tells Tracy that she isn't giving her the money and dares her to tell the whole family if she wants since she doesn't care anymore. Tracy tells her that Rae stood up to her and dared her too that way years ago and never went through with it and tells Skye to hurry up and give her the money. Skye refuses to give in to the blackmail. Tracy leaves them alone. Rae tries to explain that she told her that Alan was her father so she could become part of a big family. Skye finds little comfort in it and tells Rae that not only doesn't she have a real father, she no longer has a real mother either and walks off crying. Rae is left devastated.

Sonny demands to know everything that Ric has told her since they have been partners and gives her twenty-four hours to do it. Sonny tells Jason that Ric raped Carly and made her think she was coming on to him and wouldn't let him leave without having sex with her and then blackmailed her. Jason is stunned by this news. Sonny tells him that after he gets done with Ric, he will be begging to be dead. Jason goes to Liz's studio and asks her to let him in. He asks her if she has seen Ric but she lies and tells him she hasn't. Jason finds a bloody bandage in the sink and realizes she is lying.

Georgie tells him it would be great to go to all those places but that he looks sort of sad. Dillon tells her it isn't so bad and that he isn't really sad.

Lila tells Reginald to go upstairs and pack Tracy's bags and kicks her out. She tells her not to come back here again. Tracy doesn't understand why she is being punished for telling the truth about Rae and Skye.

The man is insulted with Liz and leaves. Jason asks Liz how far she will go to protect a rapist. Liz doesn't believe him and tells him she will protect Ric if she wants if it means keeping him from being killed by Sonny. Jason tells her that Ric hasn't called the police, which means he is hiding something. Liz doesn't like it that Jason has a good point and listens. Liz tells him she doesn't know where Ric is and that she is telling him the truth. Courtney goes to Ric's new apartment and finds the door opened. She comes in and looks around.
