Antonio told Gabi he feels like a tremendous weight has been lifted from his shoulders at last. Meanwhile, outside in the shadows, a seething Ricardo loads his gun. Carmen frantically explains to Meg why she is the only one who can save Maria now. Derek suggests to Tess that the best solution to their numerous problems would be to eliminate all their enemies in one fell swoop. In the basement, Maria weeps to find Ben's seemingly lifeless body lying under a sheet. Weary of Carmen's rantings, Sara decides to go wring the truth out of Tess. Derek told Tess he's drugged his twin brother while they decide how to permanently dispose of Ben and the others. Later, as Tess listens in, Casey places another carefully worded call to Sara. Michael confides to Vanessa how worried he is about Ricardo. After letting the air out of one of his brother's tires, Ricardo calls Michael and claims he just saw Gabi and Antonio making love. As Maria leans over him, Ben murmurs a declaration of love---for Meg. Tess catches Sara snooping and takes her captive at gunpoint. Ricardo slyly leads Michael to believe that he's been shot by Antonio.
Meg/Benjy:
Meg is at Zack's house asking Benjy if he knows the whereabouts of Maria or
Ben but Benjy resists saying that she just wants him and his mother to go
away. Meg eventually convinces Benjy that she really needs his help and that
she won't try to keep his Daddy away from his Mommy. As she continues to
question him, Benjy told her that Maria went away and that Tess said they
were going to go look for her in the morning. Eventually Benjy told Meg
that Tess has a box where she keeps all her secrets.
Tess/Sara/Casey:
Sara is at Ben's house going through all of the Passports and Money Transfer
papers and asking herself why Ben and Tess would be leaving the country
together with Benjy. She decides the police would be interested in the
information she found but as she gets up to leave, Tess walks in to the room
pointing a gun at her and saying that she just could stay out of other
people's business. Tess told Sara that she's already called the police and
that they are on the way but she doesn't fall for it. Then Sara grabs Tess
and they begin to struggle. Tess eventually gets the upper hand knocking
Sara to the floor. She points the gun and demands that Sara do exactly what
she wants or she will never see Casey again.
Derek/Ben/Maria:
Maria is stroking Ben's hair (yuck!) while he's laying on the metal table
Unconscious...
Maria: You really do love Meg. It's been her all along. I can't think about
that right now, I have to get us out of here.
Ben: Maria, Maria?
Maria: Yes, Ben it's me. It's me. We have to get out of here. We have to
get to the police. Do you understand?
Ben: Yeah, Yeah.
Maria: Okay. Do you think that you can walk?
Derek: I'm afraid he can't my dear. [standing at the basement door holding a
knife and smiling] But an
"A" for effort. I mean really Maria, can't you see how attached my brother's
become to his new home? The sort of place you want to live and die in, hmm?
The latter won't be long in coming by the way.
Derek walks down the stairs while Maria looks on and Ben is struggling to wake up.
Derek: I'm not the best pleased with your escape attempt, Maria. Really, I'm
not. I think you'll have to be reprimanded.
Ben: Leave her alone you bastard
Derek: Oh, he speaks.
Ben: Let her go it's me you want, isn't it?
Derek: True, true. But after everything we've been through, surely you know
I want everything you have as well.
Ben: I said let her go
Derek: Don't tell me what to do. I'm in charge here.
Ben: Still a coward I see [Ben tries lifting himself up]
Derek: You watch it! God you make me sick. Look at you, you're beaten and
you have a woman throwing herself all over you. What is it about you? What
is it that you think you have the rest of the world does not?
Maria: Honor.
Derek: Oh is that what you think it is Maria? You think this piece of
garbage has honor? Well, let me tell you, you weren't in my house when we
were growing up. You didn't see how he took every little advantage. How he
turned people against me. He turned my mother against me. Well, I've spent
my entire adult life trying to get back from him what is rightfully mine and
now.
Ben: Now? I wouldn't count on it if I were you, Derek. You botched up twice
before remember? With Meg and with Maria.
Derek: Well not this time, Boyo. You don't even know what I've already done.
Ben: I don't know if I care anymore.
Derek: Don't you? Have any memory flashes recently, about the time we spent
together in Seattle, Maria? No? Well, perhaps it's time for me to fill in
the blanks for both of you. Tess and I found you right after your supposed
drowning and took you straight off to Seattle. My God you were a pain in the
neck Maria. Your whining about Ben, your feeble attempts to escape. Rather
like tonight in fact. Always to no great affect.
Maria: You drugged me
Derek: Actually, Tess did that. I hate needles.
Maria: You Son of a ...
Derek: I remember you had a little flash of memory about that. Right as
rain, wasn't it? Fat lot of good that did you, eh? You still let her live
in your house even though you thought she wasn't who she said she was. You
have no idea how many time I thought I was going to have to shut you up in
here and in Seattle. Unfortunately, I needed you. You were the key to
getting back everything Ben stole from me.
Ben: Derek, look at me. What did I ever steal from you? Even after I left
England, you just couldn't handle the fact that I had a life and you had
nothing?
Derek: I have nothing? Is that what you think Ben? Well, let's run through
a little checklist shall we. I have you and Maria waiting to die and I'm
about to assume control of your entire fortune and I'm riding off into the
Sunset with my son and his mother.
Ben: What?
Derek: Oh come on, Ben. You really didn't think that Benjy was yours. Yeah,
it looks like I finally have something that you don't. That's right Benjy's
my son and nothing can change that
Ben: You sick twisted bas---
Derek: How does it feel to be on the other side for a change, to be the one
left wanting? Well, now maybe you'll know what it's been like for me. Not
to worry though, it will all be over soon.
Maria: [spots a hammer on a shelf behind her and picks it up]
Derek: You won't have to endure the years of torture as I did. But at least
I will have the satisfaction of knowing that you both died suffering.
Maria: You bastard! [as she attacks Derek with the hammer]
Derek: Hey, hey, hey. Bad girl, very bad girl. Do you know what we do to
bad girls? [grabbing her]
A while later Tess comes into the house with Sara as Derek walks into the room and asks what the hell is going on. Tess explains that Sara found her at Ben's with the passports. Sara still think it's Ben she talking to asks what he's doing with Tess. Angrily Derek told Sara to shut up and she realizes that it's Derek and not Ben.
Meanwhile Meg breaks into Ben's and finds the cedar box in Tess' room. She
carries the box out to the patio and finds a photo of Derek and Tess from
Seattle. She starts to flash back and realizes that it's Derek and not Ben.
At the mysterious house, Derek and Tess shove Sara into the room with Casey.
Sara: Casey, Casey.
Casey: Sara
Sara: What is going on?
Derek: Oh good God you are nauseating. You know this is only going to
complicate matters further, Tess
Tess: What should I have done, Derek, shot her in Ben's living room and just
left her there?
Derek: Well you know we're going to have Meg hot on our heels now don't you?
We can have a Cummings family reunion the rate we're going.
Sara: No Meg doesn't know anything about this.
Derek: Oh really?
Sara: Yeah, she would have stopped me if she had any suspicions about Ben or
about you. I didn't say a word, so please just leave her out of it.
Derek: You know, as much as you annoy me, you're more of a renegade than that
straight-laced sister of yours
Tess: Besides Meg could never find this place.
Derek: Well I hope you're right. All right we have to get going fast. Go
back get Benjy.
Tess: If I go you're not going to do anything rash
Derek: Sweetie, just go and get our son
Sara: Casey, I love you
Casey: I love you too Sara
Derek: Yeah, well there's so much love in this room, why don't you make it a
Greek Tragedy, uh? Then you all perish together.
Down in the basement, Maria and Ben are tied back to back and Ben has
shackles on his ankles...
Maria: How are you feeling?
Ben: Great and you! I'm sorry. Actually the drugs are wearing off. I can't
believe what they did to you and those lies.
Maria: Oh, don't
Ben: They were lies, weren't they, Maria? About our son?
Maria: Ben
Ben: Tell me.
Maria: No, they weren't lies.
Ben: God in heaven.
Maria: They conceived him. They conceived him with this plan in mind. To
take everything you had and for Benjy to inherit it.
Ben: The Test. What about the DNA test?
Maria: You're identical twins, you have the same DNA as Derek. That little
boy, he doesn't know about any of this
Ben: Well one things for sure, we can't let Tess and Derek raise him.
Maria: They're just monsters.
Ben: Yeah, tell me about it. Well, he may be there's but because of them,
he's ours now. He's ours in every way that matters and we'll raise him that
way
Maria: Okay.
Ben: But first we have to get out of this.
Maria: It's for Benjy.
Ben: For us.
Back in the room with Casey and Sara, Derek is punching Casey around until he
knocks him out. Then he picks Casey up, throwing him into the closet along
with Sara as she's yelling. Derek nails the closet door shut and told them
that he is planning to set fire to the house with them in it.
Meanwhile Tess is at Zack's and told his mother that she's there to pick up
Benjy and the mother told her that Meg was there earlier talking to him.
Back at the mysterious house...
Ben: Why don't you try to get your hand under mine.
Maria: I don't think this is working.
Ben: Where the hell are we, can anyone hear us if we yell?
Maria: No, Derek told me I could scream all I wanted but that no one would
hear me, when they brought me here and I found that they had Casey.
Ben: Casey? Casey here's too
Maria: He came looking for you.
Ben: I don't believe this
Maria: At least he came on his own. The way I can figure it, Sara and Meg
don't have a clue about any of this. I know how much it would kill you if
Meg was in danger. I know how much you still love her, and you always will.
You know, just thank God she's not here too.
Ben: Maria?
Upstairs, Derek is walking into the kitchen looking for a match when door
bell rings...
Derek: I can play benevolent Ben one last time. [he opens the door] Meg?
Meg: Hello Derek
Ricardo/Gabi/Antonio:
Gabi and Antonio are approaching the car and talking about the fact that
Antonio got a chill down his spine. Gabi warns him saying that usually means
that someone is walking over a grave.
Meanwhile, Ricardo is on the phone telling Michael and Vanessa that he found Gabi and Ricardo naked in bed together. Ricardo went on to make it sound as though Gabi and Antonio are coming after him, then he shoots the gun off so that Michael and Vanessa think he's been shot. Ricardo hangs up the phone and throws it into the woods saying that all that is left is to ruin their lives for good.
At the police station Michael and Vanessa are telling Spence and Stelle that they heard Ricardo tell them that they found Gabi and Antonio together right before they heard a shot.
At the cabin are talking about how great it will be for Ricardo and how wonderful it is that Ricardo has put their affair behind him and forgiven them. When they start to get into the truck, Antonio notices that the jeep has a flat. He fixes the flat tire and told Gabi that he feels that they have all gotten through the rough times and that she is his best friend. Meanwhile Ricardo is back at the airport dressed in a priest's outfit. As he heads toward the storage lockers, he spots the guy sweeping the floor and recognizes him as the same one he first saw dressed as Antonio. So to make sure the guy spots him by dropping the gun. The man calls him Father and asks what he's doing with a gun but Ricardo says it's not real and he's using it for a class he teaching about guns.
At the Police Station, Michael and Vanessa are telling Spence and Stelle about what they heard saying that it doesn't make sense. As they're talking Stelle flashes back to the conversation she had with Ricardo about Gabi being at work when he thought she was. After the flash back she asks Michael about Gabi and Antonio's relationship. Michael and Vanessa hesitate to say anything else but Stelle and Spence rush off to find the cabin. As Michael and Vanessa are writing up their police statements, Michael is telling her that he knows more than he told anyone else and that it could make Gabi and Antonio look very guilty.
At Ricardo's Gabi and Antonio open the door and find Spence and Stelle searching the apartment and they ask where Ricardo is. Back at the airport the cleaning guy has notified Security about seeing the Priest with a gun. When they walk away, Ricardo, dressed in his normal clothes, comes around the corner and says "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition"
Tied together in the basement, Maria sadly told Ben she now knows his heart belongs to Meg. Tess grows agitated when she learns that Meg had a heart-to-heart chat with Benjy earlier that evening. Meanwhile, Meg told Derek she's on to his masquerade, then claims she's fallen in love with him. A troubled Michael quietly confides to Vanessa how Gabi forced Ricardo to take out a million dollar life insurance policy in which she is named as sole beneficiary. At the loft, Gabi and Antonio are stunned the police chief reveals that Antonio can walk--and has now apparently disappeared. Later, the chief privately told Spence she's certain Ricardo's wife and brother are lying through their teeth. A skeptical Derek tests Meg's claim that she's been hungering for him all along. Hiding out at the cabin, Ricardo has a nightmare about the results of his recent handiwork. Meg grabs Derek's gun and orders him to reveal what he's done with Ben. Easily disarming her, Derek takes Meg downstairs for a bittersweet reunion with her lover.
Gabi and Antonio:
The DA was basically beating around the bush trying to get answers of Gabi
and Antonio. Antonio said that he thinks that the DA thinks they had
something to do with Ricardo being missing. The DA got a call saying that a
priest with Antonio's description had a gun in a locker at the airport
terminal. The DA got Spencer to come in the room. Spencer was told to take
Gabi and Antonio up to the cottage to look for Ricardo. Gabi and Antonio left
the room and the DA told Spencer that they aren't to talk to anyone. Spencer
took them up to the cottage. Gabi and Antonio were in the car and Antonio
told Gabi that there was more to the story than what they are saying. Later
after a Cop came in the room with a box of items that came from the locker.
It included the will, the insurance, the tape, and the gun. The DA popped in
the tape and saw Gabi and Antonio making love. She agreed they were the
murders.
Ricardo:
Ricardo was feeling guilty about what he had done. He was saying to himself
that they did not deserve to spend the rest of their lives in jail. He picked
up the cell phone and started to dial when, he started hallucinating and
seeing Gabi and Antonio holding each other and saying that Ricardo was to
nice and all that stuff. Ricardo threw what ever was in his hand and said
that they did deserve to rot in jail what they did to him.

Christmas. Annie told her that he drove everyone away. Olivia told her that
she did it because she loved them and at least she didn't drag them down with

Tobias/Jude:
At the Power Plant, Gregory is taking off his Tobias disguise and Jude walks
up behind him calling him Gregory and Gregory says it's about time they put
their plan in motion. Gregory and Jude are talking about how Jude has been
on call for 24 hours but he managed to miss Caitlin's departure from SB.
Jude went on to assure Gregory that he is working on it and that's what he's
paid for. Gregory told him that he is really in SB for another reason,
because he's AJ's illegitimate son. Gregory reminds him that AJ had not
problem recognizing Cole even though he was illegitimate, a fact which
infuriates Jude further. Then they talk about how they made sure Cole would
never come back from Europe and Caitlin would never find him. Gregory and
Jude continue to talk about their plan and what the next step is. Gregory
responds by saying it's time to take things to the next level. Then he asks

he doesn't.

that she is reason for Olivia's drinking. When she wakes she hears Christmas
music loudly playing downstairs.
In the living room, Olivia is drunk and Rose walks in asking what is going on when she sees a Christmas tree standing off center in the room. Olivia told her that the boys that delivered it put it up wrong, Rose offers to make coffee but Olivia requests Eggnog and a double for her. Annie walks in while Olivia is drinking. Olivia and Annie start talking about love and family and Annie reminds Olivia that she's all alone because of the booze. Olivia agrees saying that she can't stop and that it's different from before but at least she's not dragging everyone down with her. Annie starts to leave and Olivia went back to decorating the tree. She finds an ornament that Sean made when he was a child and starts to hang it on the tree when she accidentally drops it. The ornament breaks into a number of pieces and Olivia begins crying and praying to God for help, as Annie looks on. Olivia begins crying about having failed all of her children and Annie instructs Rose to take Olivia to bed to sleep it off. When they leave Annie remarks that Olivia deserves every horrible thing that she can throw at her but not even Olivia deserves this.
Ricardo/Gabi/Antonio:
Ricardo is at the cabin hiding out and has a flash back of framing Gabi and
Antonio and told himself that they really don't deserve Prison or worse.
Just then he starts to have visions of Gabi and Antonio standing in front of
him laughing and saying how they have made a fool out of him and how much
Gabi prefers Antonio over weak Ricardo.
Meanwhile Gabi and Antonio are talking to DA Steele and Antonio asks is she thinks they had anything to do with Ricardo's disappearance. Steele just tells them that they all have the same goal, which is to find Ricardo, so she agrees to let them go to the cabin but they will be escorted by a Police Officer. When they leave the room Steele told Officer Spencer that he is not to allow anyone to talk to Gabi and Antonio and she also told him that someone spotted Antonio at the airport earlier with a gun.
At the cabin Officer Spencer gets out of the car and told Gabi and Antonio to wait in the car. When Spence leaves Antonio and Gabi start talking about how everyone is acting strange toward them. Antonio attempts to console Gabi by hugging her but just then Spencer walks up to the are and see them and hears Antonio say that they are in this together. Back at the Police station Ruiz brought in the box they found at the airport locker. In the box is the Insurance Policy with Gabi as the beneficiary, a recently fired gun and the infamous video tape. Steele and Ruiz view the tape.
Touched by the depths of Olivia's despair, Annie begins to wonder if she's gone too far to destroy her rival. Amy returns, sans habit, and announces that she's going to spill the beans unless Annie finds a way to bring Sean back to Sunset Beach. Antonio and Gabi unwittingly fuel D.A. Steele's suspicions as they reach out to one another in their mutual anxiety over Ricardo's disappearance. Meanwhile, Ricardo's doubts dissipate and he forges ahead with his scheme to wreak revenge on the wife and brother who betrayed him. Steele coldly informs a baffled Gabi that she won't get away with the terrible crime she's committed. Olivia describes for "Tobias" how monstrous Gregory was. At the mission, Antonio conducts a First Communion ceremony for his Sunday school students. Amy blackmails Brad into helping her carry out her latest plan. Gregory secretly trails Annie back to Mrs. Moreau's place, where she begs the witch woman to reverse her potion. Antonio's parishioners gasp in shock when the police interrupt Mass and place their priest under arrest for the murder of his brother.
