Dusty, apparently still feeling the paralyzing effects of the drug he was
slipped, flung himself onto the floor and crawled over to Cheri to feel her
pulse. After announcing to himself that she's dead, he managed to lurch
himself into standing position, then took shaky stock of the room. What he
found was his own gun, which he promptly picked up and held with his finger
on the trigger, so that if it didn't already have his prints in all the
right places, it does now. "I didn't do it. I was out cold," he told
himself. He then picked up his glass to sniff the few drops that were left
inside when there was a knock at the door. At this point, he turned into
kind of a cop, clearing the room with his gun before opening his door. Margo
was in the hall, and noted that someone reported a gunshot. "That search is
over," he said breathlessly, letting the cops in to see the corpse. He told
Margo he heard the shot as well and found the body. He also admitted to
having once investigated Cheri as part of a story for The Intruder. A
cautious Margo asked him to come down to the station. Lakeview co-owner Lily
showed up, having heard about the commotion, then followed him to the
station, where Dusty — now having totally recovered his cool —
reluctantly told Lily the real story. "I didn't kill her," he said
matter-of-factly, noting that he knows he's a prime suspect, so he took the
gun with him. Lily discreetly demanded that he handed it over, while Margo
called an officer for a full body search. After stuffing the weapon in her
bag, Lily sort of covered clumsily before going. "I think you've done
enough, Lil," said Dusty, interrupting her babbling chatter to Margo, who
was in full cop mode. Margo coolly broke it to Dusty that he's officially a
suspect, then systematically broke down his story until he calmly asked
whether she was going to arrest him or let him go. After telling him that
the attitude wouldn't help, she said she was going to hold him for 24 hours,
and recommended that he call a lawyer. Meanwhile, Lily cleaned the prints
off the gun, wrapped it in a dish towel and quickly stowed it under Emma's
sink before Holden walked in. Her husband knew something was up, even though
he's distracted because Meg is "ruining her life and there's nothing I can
do about it." It didn't take long for Lily to cave. "Lisa goes out of town,
I'm in charge of the hotel and there's a murder. Just my luck," she told
him, hilariously. He accused her of keeping something from him, which hurt
her feelings even though (or because) it's true.
Gwen assured Alison that she's just got a stomachache, but not two seconds
later, she was doubled over in pain. Gwen kept insisting that her problem is
probably just indigestion, but Ali offered to stay until the doctor calls
back, kindly making it sound like she was hoping for a place to hide out
from everyone who's seen her USTUBE video. She was reading aloud about
symptoms in a pregnancy book when Gwen jumped up and ran to the bathroom.
Alison summoned Susan, who gently broke it to her that she lost the baby.
Alison listened at the door as Susan tried to comfort a sobbing Gwen. The
next time we saw her, Ali was bringing her home, where a shellshocked Gwen
just stared at the baby things strewn about and refused to call Will and
interrupt his business conference. She awkwardly thanked Alison, who
volunteered to stay until Will comes home.
Meg held out her ring finger and told Holden that not only is she staying
married to Craig, but she's planning on sealing the deal with a second
honeymoon (hopefully one that doesn't involve cliffs). Holden tried to stay
calm but reminded her of all the women that Craig has hurt. She pointed out
that thanks to Craig, she's the CEO of an international company and "in many
ways, it's the most honest relationship I've had." Holden argued that things
aren't always what they seem in a marriage, admitting that even the best
ones, like his, have problems. "I do want you to be happy," he told his
sister. Downstairs, Craig stared at Rosanna, mouth agape. She narrowed her
eyes and asked if he was really happy to see her. He was also surprised to
see Paul breathing. "Are you disappointed?" asked Paul; Craig insisted he
tried to save him, but Paul reminded Craig that that that was only after he
lured him to the cliff and shot him. After acting wounded and expressing
concern for Ro's health, Craig fished about how much she remembered, butA
Paul smugly cut him off and turned to wheel the patient back upstairs. Just
then Meg arrived, and when Craig just stood there, stunned, she whipped
around, locked eyes with Paul, and promptly fainted into her husband's arms.
Craig revived her and explained that "Paul deceived everyone" as Paul
listened, speechless by the sight of his former love. They had a moment when
he handed Meg her dropped purse, and Rosanna noted the spark between them.
"I'm glad you're alive, Paul," Meg stammered before she left. "That was Meg
Snyder," said Rosanna. "No, that was Craig's wife," he responded almost
tearfully, which made her grill him about how well he knew Meg. He finally
confessed that he didn't tell her about his relationship with Meg because he
thought it would upset her. Ro accused him of seeking revenge on Craig for
marrying Meg, not for all the horrible things he did to Ro; Paul admitted
that after Rosanna's accidents, he got into a couple of "really bad
relationships," Meg included. At home, Meg and Craig regrouped with some
brandy. Mrs. Montgomery blamed herself for giving up on Paul, but also
blamed Paul for putting her through it. Craig warned her that the formerly
deceased is planning to hurt them both. "This was all pre-meditated," he
said ominously. She turned on him then, accusing him of knowing that Rosanna
and Paul would be back. He admitted he suspected Ro might come back, but
swore that he didn't know about Paul. She believed him, of course.
