Jesse walked in on Tad and Kendall's conversation about what Tad had seen on the night of the murder. Jesse concurred that North had it in for Kendall and told her that he was being forced to testify. Jesse berated Tad for not coming to him with the suspicions he and Ryan were nursing about Annie. Tad and Jesse imagined what it would be like to testify. After North pressed Frank for info about his marriage, Jesse spoke to North, who refused to consider Annie as a suspect and put pressure on him to find concrete evidence against Kendall.

Ryan and Erica chatted at his penthouse about Adam and true love. They exchanged a tender good night. Kendall showed up as Erica was leaving and imagined her mom being railroaded by North on the stand. She assured her mom that everything would be fine, then entered the penthouse and hurled herself into Ryan's arms, telling him that everything was falling apart. They discussed how Ryan would have to testify against her. Ryan thought that they still had a shot at proving that Annie is guilty. She was upset with herself for having gotten so caught up with him that she had neglected her family. He sighed that she hadn't been alone in that. She left.

Randi admitted to Zach that she shared a past with Henry and that he had been in love with her. She then went to the hospital, where she heard Henry telling Jesse that he's heading to D.C. Zach went to the casino and learned that Madison had left 10 minutes earlier. Erica showed up and lamented to Zach that they were running out of options.

Annie reviewed for Adam what transpired on the night of the murder. Adam's guard interrupted with Aidan and announced that Aidan had bugged the mansion. Aidan tried to persuade Adam that Annie killed Stuart. Adam wanted to call the cops; Annie wanted Adam to release her ex. He complied. At the casino, Aidan warned Erica that Adam and Annie were on to them. Erica went to the Chandler manse and triggered an alarm. Adam and the guards went to shut off the alarm and Annie and Erica traded insults in the study. Erica accused Annie of killing Stuart and Annie snapped and began to strangle Erica as Adam pounded on the door.

Frank and Randi discussed Henry's efforts to undermine Jesse. Randi told Frank that she had to go out of town for the weekend to represent Fusion at a work event. North settled into his room in D.C. and was pleasantly surprised when Randi showed up. North asked for sex in exchange for backing off of the Hubbards.

Zach was upset when he got to Ryan's and discovered that Kendall was no longer there. He left after vowing to save his wife. Kendall returned home and imagined herself on the stand. She then snuggled with her sons and told them that she had something important to tell them. By the time Zach got home, she was gone. Rachel told Zach that she didn't know where Kendall was. Ryan, too, failed to reach her.
