Todd, Blair, Marcie, Michael and Starr got ready for Tommy's initial custody hearing. Marcie and Michael hoped Rex had some dirt portraying Todd as a bad parent. The McBain's attorney showed up and reviewed what Rex had come up with to hurt Todd. Ms. Brown thought Rex's discovery would "cut Todd off at the knees." Marcie feared that attacking Todd would also impact on Todd's relationship with Starr and Jack. Michael asked John to baby-sit Tommy during the court hearing. Outside of the courtroom, Starr approached Marcie and said she was so sorry about all this. The DNA test proved that Todd was Tommy's biological father. Todd was ready to take his son, but not so fast. Marcie's lawyer said she had enough evidence to prove that Todd was an unfit parent, "especially since Mr. Manning has already tried to kill the child." Rex left a message for Adriana saying he felt bad about what was about to happen.

Todd asked his daughter if she thought Tommy should be with him or the McBains. Starr replied that she was very fond of Tommy and Mrs. McBain, adding that she felt bad that Mrs. McBain would have to lose her son. However, she concluded that Tommy was Todd's son, not Mrs. McBain's. Todd smiled at his daughter and gave her a warm hug.

Talia admitted to Bo it was rough being back in New York for 9/11. She recounted her memories of that day in 2001. Bo shared some of his post-Vietnam feelings with Talia. She wondered if she had taken more risks, she might have saved more people. "Maybe one more," she said wistfully. Bo tried to assure her that she was a driven, successful, caring cop.

Natalie was horrified when she woke up next to Jared Banks. Jared teased, "I got the whole thing on video." Natalie wouldn't accept the fact that they may have had sex. Jared assured her that they had not, and offered to get her some aspirin for her hangover. Natalie dropped in on Jessica and told her sister about her evening activities. She explained that she had seen John and Marty kissing. "I can't stand her," she said of Marty. Natalie added she had spent the night with Jared Banks. Uh-oh, thought Jessica as her eyes widened. Natalie said that though she had very little clothes on when she woke up, he promised her that they had not had sex. Jessica headed to Jared's and promptly hit him when he opened the door.

Langston and Markko argued about the Starr/Marcie conflict regarding Tommy. Markko had brought her to the gymnasium so they could kiss, but Cole broke it up. The three kids hoped that Mrs. McBain would be able to keep Tommy.

Nash told Jessica he thought Jared was the kind of person he'd like to be in business with. Jessica paled at the thought, and tried as subtly as she could to talk Nash out of it. Nash wondered why she was attacking Jared. Jessica couldn't believe Nash was defending him.

In the steam room, Cristian encouraged Antonio to look ahead to better times. It was clear that Antonio was still very angry at Nash. As timing would have it, Nash showed up and told Antonio that he thought things would work out with Jared as his business partner. Nash hoped that one day he and Antonio could be civil. A still-bitter Antonio intoned, "Hello and goodbye, Nash," and Nash exited the steam room.
