Simone and Paloma were anxious to get into the Crane pool, while Jessica just sat nearby in her long-sleeved shirt and pants. Simone filled her friends in on Julian and Eve's split. Jess fell asleep. The girls were concerned about their friend. They woke her up, but Jessica refused to go in the water. Simone asked Jess to grab their goggles, then pulled Jessica into the pool. Jess didn't think it was funny and asked the girls to help her get out of the water. Paloma tried to convince Jessica to take her wet clothes off, but she refused. Finally, she unbuttoned her top. Simone and Paloma were in shock when they caught glimpse of Jess's bruises and cuts.

At Tabitha's, the witch harassed Kay about still having to make a choice between Miguel and Fox. Migs walked in just after Kay told Tabs she chose Fox. Kay yelled at Miguel for kissing Siren after they made love. He tried to explain he did it so Fox wouldn't find out they had sex at the bridal shop, but she didn't buy it. Migs begged Kay not to marry Fox.

At his office, Julian yelled at Fox for a business decision he made. Fox told his father about Kay disappearing from the bridal shop. Julian told his son to marry Kay right away and have a big ceremony at another time. Fox said he believes Kay, who claims wants to marry him, not Miguel. Jules pointed out that Kay has lied in the past. When Julian left, Fox called Kay to see how their wedding plans are going.

Chad and Ethan talked shop, but Winthrop couldn't concentrate because he was thinking about Theresa. Chad recalled being with his mysterious partner. Later, Chad bumped into Valerie. Whitney and Miles walked in on the duo exchanging a smiling look. She said she was there to drop Miles off at Crane daycare. Jared walked in just in time to break the tension and take Valerie away. Ethan walked into his office to find Whitney, Miles and Chad. Chad told Whitney how much she means to him.

Theresa signed official papers with her attorney. Pilar arrived at her daughter's office just as the lawyer was leaving. When Pilar got her hands on Theresa's will, she asked her daughter if she's sick. "I am," Theresa replied. She explained that she's sick and tired of the mess that her love life has become. Pilar was happy to hear that Theresa plans to tell Ethan he is Little Ethan's father. Theresa explained she's writing Ethan a letter to put with her will; that's how he will find out. After Theresa wrote the all-telling note, she told Valerie to deliver it to the Crane safe. She also handed Val a pile of envelopes to deliver to Ethan's office. Valerie went to Ethan's office and accidentally left the wrong envelope on his desk. Ethan began to open it.

Eve was livid at Julian for calling her a whore. Jules then claimed that Eve loved his money and seduced him with her voice way back when. He turned very cruel to the doc and told her to go home to TC. Eve pointed out that their problem is that Julian doesn't trust her love for him. Julian said he felt as if Eve put TC first on plenty of occasions. The couple agreed that their relationship is over. Eve told Julian she did love him. Julian was adamant about feeling as if she never stopped loving TC and was using Crane.

Whitney told Theresa that she doesn't know where Chad could be. Theresa came up with a bunch of places he could have run off to, but Whit was sure he is somewhere that has to do with the secret he's keeping from her. She told Theresa she believes Chad is having an affair with Valerie. Theresa suggested she call Jared to see if he knows where Chad is. Whit told her friend not to let on that they suspect Chad is having an affair. Jared told Tess he would have Chad call her or Whit if he sees him. Then he told Valerie, who was rushing out, to have Chad call one of them if she bumps into him.

Chad waiting for his company at the motel. Chad's date finally arrived.

Paloma tried to convince Fancy not to give up on Luis, and explained why it's a good thing that he isn't jumping into a relationship with her when he's not over Sheridan yet.

Luis begged Sheridan not to give up on them. They duo said their good-byes, which were interrupted by a call from Chris. Sheridan bumped into Paloma and Fancy on her way out of the station and told her niece that she let Luis go. Sheridan told Fancy to be there for Luis, who is hurting. Paloma left Fancy alone with Luis. Fancy asked Luis if it was really over between him and Sheridan and he said yes. Sheridan arrived home to an impromptu celebration; Chris told her the papers arrived for her to adopt James. Chris said to himself, "Even if I'm not really James's father."

Jared ran into Valerie at Crane Industries and confronted her about sleeping with Julian. He warned her, just like he did with Chad, that it could be hurtful to a lot of people when secrets are exposed. Just as she was going to leave, Jared learned that they had to stay to fix a work mistake. Val was frustrated that she couldn't make it out for her date. Jared told her to be careful with getting involved with someone at work. Like he should talk!

Eve and Julian made love in his office. They agreed to act as if their recent conflict didn't happen. When Eve said she still needs to be there for TC's recovery, Julian asked if she loves him or her ex. "I love you, Julian," she replied. The more Julian drank, the meaner he became. He told Eve exactly what he thought of her. "You're a whore, Eve," he said.

Whitney told Theresa she's afraid to find out what Chad is hiding from her. Whitney realized her friend was burning up. In the hallway, Jared warned Chad about the dangers of keeping a secret. Whit interrupted the men and told them she thinks Theresa passed out. She woke up, said she's probably catching a cold, then quickly fell asleep again. Whitney privately asked Chad why he was talking to Jared about a hotel. Chad covered. Jared popped in and sent Whit to get something for Theresa, then told Chad to leave. While nursing Tess, Whitney asked Jared where Chad went. Whit's suspicions were once again raised.

At a motel, Chad poured himself a cocktail.

Luis told Sheridan they can finally find the happiness they deserve. He was excited, thinking she was there to tell him she wants to be with him instead of Chris, and rambled about their future plans. Sheridan interrupted Luis and told him that she's staying with Chris and what the two of them had is over. "We had a chance, but it's gone," she said before apologizing and admitting not being with him is hurting her, too. "I don't want you. I don't want you. I don't want you," she cried.

At the police station, Fancy and Paloma talked about Luis. Paloma suggested that perhaps Fancy's chat with Sheridan merely pushed her back into Luis's arms instead of keeping him away. Fancy fantasized about having a family with him. Paloma slipped and told Fancy that she had to convince Luis to move on from Sheridan and go for Fancy. Ms. Crane was upset, feeling as if Pilar and Paloma were pushing Luis to date her. She went on about how many guys used to want to date her, and if Luis doesn't want to be with her, then she doesn't want him either.

Eve walked in on Julian and Valerie having sex in his office. Val was quick to tell Dr. Russell that it had never happened before, while Jules reminded Eve that she dumped him, so he wasn't cheating on her. Valerie once again told Eve she's sorry, and that she's involved with someone else. The doc told the flustered girl that if she's planning on sleeping up the Crane corporate ladder, she'll be disappointed. Eve told Val she's been following her career and considered her a role model for young women, but now she sees how she got to her current position. "What is it with you and black girls anyway? Do you think we're all about sex?" Eve snapped to Julian. Eve pointed out that Val was after Chad, Fox and now Julian. When Eve called Valerie a common prostitute, Val returned the favor and the women turned the fight into a brawl. Julian pulled them apart and kicked Valerie out. Eve yelled at Jules for being just like his father. He, again, told her he wanted to give her everything, but she chose to nurse TC back to health instead. Julian threw nasty words Eve's way. "Remind me to have a stroke the next time I'm afraid of losing the woman that I love," he uttered. A crying Eve said she couldn't believe she came to Julian's office to give him another chance. Jules asked if they can put everything behind them and get back together. They kissed.

While looking at a picture of himself and Sheridan, Luis went on about still loving her. Paloma and Pilar told him he needs to move on. Luis questioned his mother, who has always wanted him to be with Sheridan. She explained that Sheridan is married to another man and a mother to his child, so she now thinks Luis needs to go elsewhere to find love. Before Paloma rushed out to the station, she told Luis that Fancy is the woman for him. Luis told his mother that he and Sheridan will never stop loving each other.

Katherine and Sheridan comforted each other over tea after being hurt by Fancy's harsh words. Fancy barged back into the cottage to make sure the women knew she meant every word she said to them. She assured her aunt and grandmother that she loves and respects them, but wanted to point out what is right and wrong. "Let him go," Fancy urged Sheridan regarding Luis. Sher told her niece she doesn't want to intentionally hurt Luis. After Fancy left, Kat asked her daughter if she can really get over Luis. Sheridan's mother told her that she thinks she belongs with Luis. But Sheridan claimed she wants Luis and Fancy to be happy, and pointed out, that she's married to Chris anyway. However, Sheridan told her mom that she's scared of living her life without Luis. At Pilar's, Luis answered the door and was thrilled to see Sheridan. "I had to see you," she said.

In Theresa's bedroom, Jared helped his girlfriend feel better. When he stepped away, Whitney and Chad ran in the room. Whit told her best friend that she heard what happened in the steam room and that Jared and Ethan fought. "Does Jared know you slept with Ethan?" she asked just as Casey walked back into the room. (Open mouth, insert foot.) However, Jared apparently didn't hear Whit's tell-all question. He asked Chad to talk about business in the hallway. Whitney apologized to Theresa for nearly exposing her affair with Winthrop. Tess filled her friend in on how she mistakenly called out to Ethan instead of Jared when she gained consciousness. She assured Whitney that Jared is the man for her and that she doesn't want to ruin their relationship. Outside the room, Jared asked Chad if there is something he should know about Ethan because he heard Whit say his name when he walked into the room. Chad didn't tell Jared the truth. Back in the room with the girls, Chad received a call from Valerie who said she needed to see him right away. Chad excused himself for the "work" call. Jared walked out shortly after and overheard Chad say to the person on the phone that they couldn't get together that night. Jared asked Chad what his secret is. Whitney confided to Theresa that she thinks Chad is keeping something from her.

At the police station gym, Fancy let her steam out on the punching bag. She filled Paloma in on her conversation with Sheridan and Katherine.

After waking up from her steam room incident, Theresa thought Jared was Ethan. The buff Ethan pushed Jared aside and comforted Theresa, then directed Jared to call Dr. Russell.

Eve barged into Julian's office, interrupted a chat with Mr. Crane and Valerie, and begged him not to take the Crane funds away from the hospital. The doc realized the old, cruel Julian is back. Jules explained that he tried to work things out in their relationship, but that she didn't try, so he is cutting the ties that bind them by removing his money from the hospital. Eve defended her actions (staying by TC's side after his stroke) by telling him she wouldn't neglect the father of her children or her patients to go off on a spontaneous trip Julian planned. "You can't call all the shots all the time," she yelled. "Neither can you," he responded, while sipping on a cocktail. The doc received a call from Jared about Theresa's situation. Julian begged her not to leave and noted, "Theresa's whole life is an accident."

Elsewhere at Crane Industries, Gwen told Val she really believes Theresa is moving on with Jared. Just then, Ethan walked around the corner carrying Theresa; both of them, of course, still only wearing towels. Chris found out something happened to Theresa. He confronted Spike in a hall closet, but it was the thug who threatened Boothe. Gwen asked Jared why their half-naked lovers are together. Eve examined Theresa while a nervous Ethan looked on. An annoyed Jared and Gwen watched Ethan care for his ex. Gwen stormed out. The doc ordered Theresa to rest and hydrate, then left. Eve and Gwen had a heart-to-heart. Eve informed Gwen that she and Julian broke up, and that Jules has morphed back into his former mean self. Gwen told Eve to fight for Julian. Jared called maintenance and was told the steam room valve had recently been replaced and someone messed with it on purpose. When Ethan offered to drive Theresa home, she insisted Jared take her. Once Jared and Theresa left, Gwen confronted her husband about his feelings for Mrs. Crane.

Ivy encouraged Fox to interrupt Miguel and Kay's lovemaking on the beach. A furious Fox headed over to the couple, only to discover his nemesis was with Siren, not Kay. At Tabitha's house, the witch and Kay were reunited after Tab's trip. Kay filled her friend in on the latest happenings with her love triangle, then asked her sorceress friend to show her what was happening at the beach through the magic bowl. Kay was frustrated that Migs was kissing Siren. "Why did I trust him?" she vented before deciding she is going to marry Fox. Endora was so thrilled to see her mother again, she magically made party goods to appear that looked more like Halloween than a Welcome Home fiesta. Fox, Ivy and Miguel walked in and questioned the decor. Tabitha explained that Halloween is her favorite holiday, so she was thrilled by the theme. Fox asked his fiancée why she disappeared from the bridal shop. He totally fell for her excuse that she ran out when she heard his voice because she didn't want her future groom see her in her wedding dress. Once Fox and Ivy walked away, Kay snapped at Miguel for cozying up to Siren so soon after they made love. While everyone was enjoying cake, Ivy pulled Kay aside to bicker about what really happened at the bridal salon. Ivy informed Kay that she knows she made love to Miguel at the store, but Kay retaliated by pointing out that Ivy was with Sam when she married Julian. Fox apologized to Kay about being so insecure and jealous. With Ivy and Miguel listening, Kay assured him no one will prevent them from getting married.

Eve looked forward to working things out with Julian. She walked into his office and found him having sex with Valerie on his desk. Yikes!
