Taylor and Ridge held Steffy hostage at the cabin. Taylor inspected the sweater that Pam had made Thomas and wondered if Pam had really tried to hurt Rick. Thomas entered the living room. Taylor wanted to talk to her son. Thomas didn't think aunt Pam could have done it. Thomas grew agitated when he talked about his feelings toward Rick. Taylor admitted that being back at the cabin reminded her of all the things that had happened to their family "not all of them good," she said. Taylor added that some of her choices in men had upset Thomas. Thomas wondered what Rick felt "when he was fooling around with the girl whose sister he killed.” Taylor dropped the coffee pot when Thomas admitted he had done those things. "It was me," he told his visibly upset mother. Thomas rattled off all the reasons he hated Rick. "I couldn't stand having him around," Thomas said as he grew more agitated. Taylor apologized. Thomas explained that he felt Rick had taken advantage of "Phoebe and then my own mother....How could this happen? I wanted to stop him," Thomas sobbed. "I just wanted to scare him," he added as he began to apologize. "I really screwed up," he said.

Steffy called Rick and quickly told him that she missed him. She explained that her family was worried for her safety. She begged him to be careful. "I'm invincible," he joked. He asked her not to let her family brainwash her. She told him she loved him and hung up the phone. Ridge had a tense conversation with Steffy. She wondered why Thomas had hit Rick. Ridge told his daughter that she was safe "being with your parents and your brother."

Rick called Brooke who was very glad to hear from him. She told him it was wrong that he had burst into Rick's house. Ridge explained he was worried about losing another daughter. He added that Brooke should be worried about Rick. Rick came home and was comforted by Brooke. Rick thought Pam was guilty. Brooke begged her son to reconsider his relationship with Steffy. Rick reminded his mother that he and Steffy would be together forever. Rick was upset that Ridge and Taylor were still inferring with his relationship with Steffy. Brooke wondered if there was still "a maniac out there wanting you to be dead."

Donna surprised Pam at the jail. "There's justice in this world after all," Donna gloated. Pam accused Donna of framing her "to get revenge. You did those things to Rick." Donna couldn't believe what she was hearing. "It was you Donna, you and that kid of yours," Pam added. Donna was very defensive of her son. "The police has made their arrest and it's going to stick," Donna vowed. Donna passed Stephanie who was on her way to visit her sister. Pam fell into Stephanie's arms. Pam begged Stephanie to get her out of there. "I shouldn't be here," she said.

Stephanie insisted to Marcus that Pam was innocent. Stephanie, who was convinced that Marcus had set up Pam, begged him to confess. Marcus denied having anything to do with the attacks on Rick.
