Birthday Party Fun!

Krystal is shocked that JR has lost Tad and everyone worries where he could be - and if he'll miss his entire party. Erica asks Aidan where Tad may have gone but he doesn't have a clue. As they all discuss Tad's whereabouts, he sneaks into the bar without anyone noticing. He orders a drink from Wes, who begins to laugh. Zach and Kendall arrive and Tad finally steps up from his perch in one of the booths, announcing his arrival. And the birthday fun begins! Babe starts up a few games, first up is Guess The Year - based on Tad's different haircuts! Opal and Ruth win the game and a few rounds of free beer! Julia walks in and greets Jonathan and Ava. She asks about Jamie and Jonathan makes a quick exit. Babe sees her and they talk about Jamie a little. Meanwhile Zach and Erica are showing the crowd pictures of Ian and Spike. Opal brings up Cochlear Implants, making Kendall uncomfortable. Jack arrives at the party, interrupting a hot kiss between Jonathan and Ava. He apologizes for getting her involved in the drug bust but she could care less; Ava believes the bust made her career and thanks him! They all go inside and Aidan distracts Jack with questions about Greenlee. Seeing the tension between Jack and Erica from across the room, Tad asks Erica what the deal is now. She tells him about the new talk show, which is hilarious for Tad. Jack interrupts as Erica asks Tad for a kiss. Tad leaves. Babe and Josh are talking about Greenlee, both wondering where she is; Aidan and Amanda are taking advantage of a few free drinks at the bar. She asks him about Di and he changes the subject to poker, hoping to get a game going. Krystal gets a few birthday tributes going and the crowds talks Tad's greatest hits. JR introduces an email tribute from Jamie in Africa. Krystal takes centerstage with a song. Tad looks around at the room full of friends as Krystal begins to sing "Our Love Is Here To Stay". Kendall talks to Babe and Amanda about Fusion and Ava butts right in with her two cents. Kendall basically tells her to get lost. Ruth walks up and asks about Ian and Spike, excited about the prognosis for both boys. Kendall cuts her off when she brings up Cochlear Implants, saying she has another doctor in mind. Meanwhile at the birthday-boy's table Joe, Opal and a newly arrived Ruth are regaling Julia with stories of Tad's past. Sean and Colby listen in and she learns that Tad and Liza used to be an item. She can't believe it and asks Tad what really happened. Colby asks about Tad's other lovers but Tad clams up. He tells Colby he is much happier not being Tad-the-Cad. Kendall goes to Zach, tells him she has to leave to express some milk for Ian. He says he'll go to but Kendall tells him to stay behind with the boys and the poker game and gets Julia to drive her. Julia and Kendall leave. From outside, Greenlee watches the party go on. She starts to go inside, hesitates but finally decides to go inside. Aidan catches her on the way in and accidentally hits her ribs. Inside the party is beginning to break up. Tad joins Krystal at the bar and they talk about Jenny for a bit. Tad kisses Krystal and it turns passionate. She pulls away and neither knows what to think about it. They go their separate ways.

Annie Is Keeping Secrets

Babe can't believe that Jamie is thinking of leaving town. JR listens as Babe cries. Finally he steps forward and asks for all the details. Jamie tells him about the AIDS clinic; JR is just as stunned as Babe was. Angry, JR asks why Jamie wants to leave, now that they are all finally growing close again. The brothers hug. They all sit down together to have a grown up send off, remembering the good and bad times they've had. They raise their drinks and toast to their friendship. Jamie tells JR that he is the one who inspired him to go out on his own. JR doesn't see that leaving Chandler Enterprises inspiring but Babe backs up Jamie - and JR! - by telling him it was a great decision. JR leaves, telling Jamie he wants to see him again before Jamies leaves town. Alone, Babe and Jamie go on their own, private memory walk. Crying, Babe reaches out to Jamie, wondering how she can carry on without her friend by her side. Babe tells him she dreamed about him; Jamie admits he did, too. And then he kisses her! Babe pulls away, not wanting things to go much farther with Jamie heading out of town. "I'm a phone call away if you need me," he reminds her, but Babe isn't ready to be without him. Jamie pulls a charm bracelet - a cow! - from his pocket and hands it to her. She asks Jamie to be careful while he is away; he kisses her hand and promises. He leaves but Babe stays behind to finish up some work. When she is alone, Babe lets her tears fall for real.

Moving On

In his office Joe thanks Tad for helping Ryan track down Kendall so quickly. Jamie follows them in, excited about a new project - Jake called and offered Jamie a position with a new AIDS clinic in Africa. Tad is stunned. "I don't want you to go," he says! Joe agrees, but also thinks Jamie should follow his heart to a few new opportunities. Joe is called away but offers Jamie his support in the move. After thinking on the decision a little more, Jamie realizes he would miss Jenny growing up if he were to move to Africa - and decides to stay! Tad changes his tune, telling Jamie that he can't rearrange his life just because Tad will miss him! "But what about you guys?" Jamie asks. Tad assures him that they are only a phone call or an instant message away. They hug.

On his way out of the hospital Jamie runs into Josh, who congratulates him on the new project in Africa. As they talk about family, Jamie tells Josh that it isn't just his family, the Martins are Josh's family, too, if he would let them in. Josh isn't he needs more family than the Kane's - who are a lot to deal with - but Jamie encourages him to give the Martin's a chance. Jamie walks away.
