He told JR about his heart valve project and that David is working on something similar. "Looks like someone needs to beat him to the punch," said JR.

Frank did a poor job at the hospital of hiding his tryst with Randi from Angie. Frank and Randi went to ConFusion, where they met up with Brot and Taylor. Jesse and Angie arrived, filled with dread about Frank's impending departure. Jesse addressed the group about how proud he and Angie were of Frank and how much they would miss him. When it was time to say good-bye, Randi slipped across the room. Frank caught up with her and told her it was time to go home.

Zach broke away from his kiss with Kendall. She apologized and ruminated on her need to be loved by all people at all times. Zach accused Kendall of wanting him and Ryan, which Kendall noted was impossible. Zach insisted to Kendall that he doesn't need her. Kendall wondered if they could do this, by which she meant, live together without hurting each other. When the phone rang, Zach answered it; it was the police calling for Kendall. Kendall took the phone and learned that Erica was missing.

Broken down by the side of the road with Ryan, Erica flirted with her daughter's beau. Erica stood on Ryan's shoulders in the hopes of getting cell phone reception and they ended up tumbling to the ground. Ryan carried an injured Erica to an abandoned cabin. Ryan provided Erica with the means to give herself a bath. Erica reiterated to Ryan that she wanted him to stay away from Kendall. Ryan opined that he didn't think Kendall really loved him but said that he does love her. In the bath, Erica continued to press Ryan not to interfere with Kendall and Zach's love, and she mused about her own romantic history. She began squealing when she saw a bug "the size of a poodle."

Krystal met up with David at the hospital and warned him that Little A had already spoken to the judge in the custody hearing. David went to see Ian at the Slater house and Zach pressed him to explain the possible complications of Ian's situation. David warned that Ian might require a new heart valve.

When Krystal went to ConFusion, Angie paid for her drink and told her about the farewell party for Frank that was occurring across the room. Jesse came to take Angie home and told Krystal he would see her in court tomorrow. Angie admitted to Krystal that she misses her. "I miss you too," seconded Krystal, agreeing that she hoped they could be friends again after the trial. Krystal looked at a picture of Babe on her cell phone, then dialed a number. A woman answered and Krystal hurriedly hung up.

Kendall and the cops examined the site of Erica's abandoned car. Kendall feared that her mom had been kidnapped.... Kendall and the cops burst into the cabin and caught Erica and Ryan in a seemingly compromising position (as he rescued her from the huge bug).
