Maxie screamed bloody murder when she found Coop's body hanging from the ceiling in his room at Kelly's. Mike and Jason rushed to her aid. Jason had to deny her pleas to cut Coop down, since it was now a crime scene. Mike brought a hysterical Maxie downstairs, where they broke the news to Lulu and Logan. Mac arrived and questioned Maxie, who said she and Coop talked about going away together. Mac asked those in attendance who was the last person to speak to Coop. "I was," Logan admitted. Logan lied, though, stating that he talked to Coop about borrowing money. He didn't mention the stolen forensic report. Jason told Spinelli he was skeptical about the suicide. Maxie refused to believe it either. Harper entered with the stolen report, linking Coop to Georgie's murder. "He's the tex-message killer," Mac declared. "No!" responded Maxie. Mac declined her request to ride in the ambulance with Coop's body. Lulu was shocked that Coop was the killer. Jason wasn't so sure and told Spinelli that just before he died, Coop tried to call him but he missed the call.

Kate saw Sonny at his office for the first time since she turned down his marriage proposal. "I'm over it," he told her. "And I'm finally over you." Sonny refused to hear her explanation.

She accused Sonny of being in love with Connie, not her. She asked what they could do but Sonny coldly stated they could prevent history from repeating itself a third time. "Doesn't Couture have a deadline," he asked. Kate sighed and walked out, defeated.
