Jack and Ashley met at The Athletic Club, where Ash was experiencing morning sickness. Jack giggled over the story about Jill losing both her mother and her inheritance in the new issue of Restless Style. He eagerly anticipated Jill's response to the exposé. Jill approached the Abbotts, where Ashley told Jill that Jabot did not require her services. She also mentioned that she'd heard Jill went to Victor begging for a job. Jill informed Ash that she didn't have her story straight. Jack and Ashley then chided Jill for not supporting Billy in Delia's custody hearing. When Ash wasn't feeling well, Jack escorted her out and gave Jill the magazine for some "light reading." While waiting for her car, Ashley convulsed in pain and told Jack that she needed to see her doctor.

In court, Neil interrupted the judge's decision to speak about Ana. Neil expressed his love for the girl and how she changed his life for the better. When he stated he wanted to be a father to Ana, Karen took his hand but then, Neil shocked the courtroom when he said Ana was better off with Tyra. Karen was horrified. "He didn't mean that," Karen blurted. The judge called a recess to re-evaluate. "What have you done?" Karen cried to Neil. "I can't even look at you!"

In the hall, Devon and Ana saw Cane. The kids filled him in on the hearing. Lily emerged and asked Cane to speak in private. Cane was surprised to hear about Neil's actions. Lily pointed out that Neil was doing what was best for Ana. The judge returned and rendered full and permanent guardianship to Tyra. An emotional Tyra wept and rushed to give Ana the news. Neil told Devon what happened. When he returned to the courtroom, Neil saw Karen's wedding ring on the table and sighed.

In the hall, Lily told Cane that while Neil did the right thing to do, she felt bad for Karen. Lily was worried about how a custody battle would affect Cordelia and told Cane that he, too, should do what's best for the baby.

At Crimson Lights, Billy and Chloe fretted about the custody hearing for their daughter, as Mac watched from the patio. The parents cooed over their daughter, but Billy couldn't help but catch Mac's glance.

Neil returned home to find Karen packing. Karen told Neil they were through. "None of this was real," she shouted about their marriage, accusing him of just going through the motions. She then said that Neil is not the good guy he wants everyone to think he is. When Neil told Karen that he loved her, she slapped him and started beating his chest, saying, "I hate you!" Just then, Devon, Tyra and Ana entered and saw the exchange. Ana apologized to Karen, who smiled that it wasn't her fault. Karen hugged the girl, picked up her suitcase and walked out.

Billy and Chloe arrived at court, where Cane asked Chloe to speak to her alone for a minute. Cane told Chloe he was dropping the suit. Stunned, she hugged Cane and repeatedly thanked him. Chloe said that Delia has made her a better person. "I believe you," Cane smiled.

After a visit to the doctor, Jack took Ashley back to the ranch to rest. While Jack was snooping through some files, Adam entered the room. The men exchanged barbs. Adam warned Jack that his arrogance would bring him down. Jack retorted that Adam may be blind but he hadn't changed a bit. Having overheard Jack's insults, Ashley told her brother it was time that he left. Jack warned Ashley not to trust Adam. Afterward, Ash apologized to Adam.

After reading the Restless Style article, a reporter from The National Inquisitor asked Jill to comment. Jill said she had a lot to say about that "fraud" named Katherine.
