Cane and Lily enjoyed themselves on their tropical honeymoon. After heading to the beach, they returned to their bedroom. There, they gushed over how great the other was and hit the sheets. Later, Lily suggested they go to Australia so she could see where he became the amazing man he is. Cane replied that she made him who she is.

Amber and Nina argued over what material to put in the movie about Katherine. Nina wanted to put in things about Kay's past, but Amber wanted to concentrate on Kay's accomplishments. Outside the Chancellor Estate, Murphy fired up the grill for the barbecue and debated the menu with Esther. She wanted him to serve up a healthier item, but he insisted on grilling hot dogs and hamburgers. Inside, Mackenzie informed Kay that Billy's going to have to back off because there's another guy in her life. Kay wondered why she hadn't mentioned it; Mac explained that the relationship ended, but that it could've been serious.

At the pool house, Billy accused Chloe of hassling Mac. Chloe revealed that Mac had something going with a man other than Billy in Darfur. Billy believed that Mac made up the guy. Billy and Chloe arrived at the barbecue with Cordelia. Mac told Billy how she'd found an old recording of them singing karaoke. Billy accused Mac of concocting a "phony boyfriend." Mac was offended that he thought she made him up and reminded Billy that nothing was going to happen between them. Billy disagreed and invited her to talk to him inside.... Amber and Chloe asked Nina what Phillip III was like in person. Nina revealed that she'd been crazy about him, but he'd been a complex person. She was fascinated by the fact that Cane had been able to track down Jill and concluded that he had help. Chloe suggested Nina ask Amber about it since she and Cane had been "sort of" married. Amber didn't want to put the movie's focus on the Phillip III/Cane baby switch. After, they watched Billy hit on Mac. Chloe was upset that he was doing this in front of everyone. Amber encouraged her to fight for Billy, and didn't think Billy deserved her.

At the Abbott mansion, Sharon prepared to visit Cassie's grave. Jack offered to accompany her, but she turned him down, explaining that she wanted to grieve alone — without him or Nick. Meanwhile, Phyllis tried to be there for a devastated Nick. Nick also planned to go to the grave and also wanted to do it alone. After, Sharon stopped by Restless Style and told Phyllis that she wants to spend some time alone at the cemetery. Phyllis told her that Nick is already at the grave, but was surprised that Sharon was trying to avoid him. She invited Sharon to stay at the office while Nick was at the cemetery. Sharon assured her that she doesn't want to live in the past anymore, and wants a fresh start with Jack. Phyllis admitted that at times she hated Sharon because she was jealous of Nick and Sharon's connection. Sharon again assured her that what was between her and Nick is over, then left to visit the cemetery.

Meanwhile, Nick went to Jack's to see if Sharon was there. Jack told him that Sharon didn't want to see him that day because it was too hard for her. He urged him to respect Sharon's wishes. Nick revealed how guilty he still feels for pushing Sharon away after Cassie's death. Jack replied that Sharon doesn't need Nick because she has him.

Jack arrived at the barbecue and happily greeted Kay and Murphy. Kay was pleased that he and Sharon were back together. He explained that Sharon wasn't there because it was the four-year anniversary of Cassie's death. Kay noted how difficult it is to lose a loved one. Nina questioned Amber about how Kay recalled the baby switch. Amber explained that Kay had these flashes about a time in her life when she was drunk and furious with Jill for stealing away Phillip II. Nina noted that Kay still treated Phillip III like a full-blooded child. She was intrigued when Amber recalled how Kay had hired a psychic to help her decipher her flashes. Later, Raul made a surprise appearance at the party. Billy introduced him around. Mac seemed stunned to see Raul there — and then passionately kissed him! "That's some kiss hello," Murphy marveled. Billy was speechless.

Sharon visited Cassie's grave and placed fresh flowers at the site. She then sat and talked to her daughter, noting that if Cassie were alive, she'd be ready for college. "I need you, Cassie," she cried. "I need to hold you and hear your voice and see your beautiful eyes looking into mine." Sharon stated that she knows she failed Cassie and Noah, but she's herself again. Soon, Nick appeared behind Sharon at the gravesite. Sharon got up to leave, but Nick stopped her. "I can't do this," Sharon said and turned away from him. Nick apologized and explained that he thought they should be with Cassie together. Sharon admitted that four years later, dealing with the death hasn't gotten any easier. Nick feared that if they moved on, Cassie would think they were abandoning her. He went on about Cassie's prophecy that they'd have a baby. Sharon revealed that she's pregnant.
