Meg took her soiled blouse off and Craig offered his lap for comfort, along with ginger ale and crackers. Meg thanked him for his kindness. Then Paul showed up. Craig explained how she got ill and he drove her home and it was all completely innocent. Craig left. Meg, dressed for work, comes out of the bedroom. She asked Paul why he was giving her the silent treatment. Paul confronted her about the kiss at the gala and told her that Craig told him about it. Meg explained a slap was all Craig got in return.

At the recording studio, Adam and the musicians he hired are all happy with the way Gwen's recording of "Slide" turned out. One of the musicians makes a comment about this making up for the problem with the record in LA, and once they're alone, Gwen asks Adam what happened in LA. Adam essentially tells Gwen to mind her own business, but ultimately he says it was just a record deal that didn't work out, and he's over it.

At Java, Jade runs into Will, who is there to pick up a cake; he tells Jade he and Gwen are going to celebrate the fact that he's done well on the GED and that she's making her first recording. She tells him she just came from the recording studio, and Adam had made it sound like they might be there most of the night working on Gwen's demo. She offers to buy Will a cup of coffee, and they sit down to talk for a few minutes, with Jade asking Will if he and Gwen will move to Los Angeles to help Gwen's new career, or if they'll stay in Oakdale except for all the times that Gwen is touring to promote her record. Will seems unsure about all of this, and Jade then tells him how focused Adam was on Gwen. She tells him that they both seemed very intense and in tune with each other, and that Adam seems to really know what he's doing and is the person who is making Gwen's dreams come true. Seeing Will's reaction, she quickly assures him that Gwen would never do anything to hurt him. Will decides it's time to leave, and he picks up his cake and goes to the recording studio, where he walks in as Gwen and Adam are huddled together listening to a song Adam wants Gwen to cover. Will and Gwen embrace, and when Will asks Adam if they're finished for the night, Adam says they are; Gwen thanks Adam, then she leaves with Will. When they get home, she sees the flowers and food Will has brought home for their celebration and suddenly remembers his GED, asking how he did. He tells her he's pretty sure he aced it, and she hugs him and tells him she's proud of him.

At Katie's house, Mike has been locked in by Katie and Henry. Katie comes downstairs dressed to entice Mike, but he's not buying it. He insists that she let him out, so Katie calls Henry on a walkie-talkie and has him unlock the front door. Henry does, and Mike tells him to get lost, then goes back inside and tells Katie he doesn't think talking will accomplish anything. Katie protests that their marriage is worth saving, saying she's more than just her mistakes and asking Mike to remember their wedding day and all the time they've spent building a life together. Mike tells her the problem is that he has been 100% in the marriage, while a part of Katie still loves Simon; he tells her that denying that isn't fair to her and isn't how he wants to live his life. With that, he tells her goodbye and leaves. Katie leaves, too, and finds Henry at the Lakeview, where she tells him their plan didn't work. Henry tells her to come on in and have a bite of dinner with him.

At the Lakeview, Simon has shown Carly the diamond necklace he had made for her, and she reacts by asking if the diamond is from the jewels they stole from Vienna. Simon admits that it is, and Carly is stunned to learn that he would even consider keeping such a thing as a souvenir. He tells her it was supposed to be a special reminder of their first night together, but she says she couldn't possibly flaunt something like that diamond in public, because it would be bad karma; Simon says it's Detective Jack she's worried about. Simon gets up and takes the necklace to the waiter, asking if he has a trash can he can use, but Carly freaks out when she thinks Simon might actually throw the necklace in the trash. Carly grabs the necklace from him, and she tells him it's a wonderful gift and that the best thing about it is that he did it as a remembrance of their first night together. Simon puts the necklace around Carly's neck, and Henry and Katie walk in and see them. Katie is immediately furious, telling Henry, "They are so not getting away with this!" and saying that Simon led her to believe that he and Katie shared a bond that was unbreakable, then proceeded to break it after she began to believe him. She says he ruined her marriage and her life, and she wants revenge. Looking at the huge diamond in the necklace that Carly is now wearing, Katie says she has an idea for a few new pages for her book, "Oakdale Confidential: Secrets Revealed."

Elsewhere at the Lakeview, Dusty tells Lucy not to worry about Craig hurting him if she testifies against him, because once Craig is in prison, he won't be able to do anything to Dusty. Lucy disagrees, saying Craig could hire someone else to hurt Dusty, but Dusty says Craig is just playing with her mind and insists that she testify anyway. When the assistant DA comes up to talk to Lucy, Dusty leaves.

In the courtroom, Craig and his lawyer talk before the hearing; his lawyer is doubtful that she can keep him out of prison if Lucy testifies and the case goes to trial, but Craig is unconcerned. He sits and shows the lawyer a picture of Johnny, telling her how much he loves his son and just wants the chance to raise him. Lucy walks in and overhears their conversation, including Craig commenting that Lucy is only doing this to impress Dusty, but that after last night, she won't go through with it. Lucy walks up and says now she knows for sure that Craig sabotaged Dusty's brakes, and now more than ever, she wants to testify against him. Craig's lawyer warns her not to say anything unsubstantiated or not "on point." Craig tells her she should think about her brother and him and the fact that he's just trying to keep his family together as a family, but Lucy says she doesn't want anything to do with him anymore. She asks if he intends to hurt or even kill Dusty if she testifies, and Craig tells her she gives him far too much credit, but he can't predict the future, and accidents do happen. He walks back to his lawyer, and Dusty walks up and tells Lucy that Craig can't hurt him and not to be nervous. The judge calls the hearing to order, and Lucy takes the stand to testify.
