At Babe's condo, JR told Babe about Amanda selling his alibi to Adam. Next, they exchanged presents, but JR got surly when he saw a present from Babe to Richie under the tree but regained his composure.

Hannah came to the Chandler manse and handed Adam a file that she claimed was akin to Zach's head on a platter. She explained that she's sold Chandler Enterprises off to dummy corporations, which she controls, and can sell the company back to him at bargain prices. Hannah bitterly assured Adam that she had covered her tracks carefully and made it clear that she would no longer do his bidding. It was obvious, though, that she had another trick or two up her sleeve....

Zach showed up at the police station and railed at Kendall for having gone against his wishes and confessing. Kendall was adamant that she had to face the music in order to alleviate her guilt. Jack arrived and volunteered to represent Kendall (he'd cleared it with Greenlee). Kendall was touched by his fatherly devotion and released on bail. Back at home, Zach tried to maintain his cool but the prospect of losing Kendall caused his emotions to overflow. The Slaters made love.... At the hospital, Greens and Aidan were closer than ever — but Joe was clearly concerned about her health.

Dr. Chambers went to the psych ward to see Richie, who announced that he had chosen the day he planned to die. JR also came to see Richie and warned him to stay away from Babe.
