At his office, JR hangs up the phone as Adam and Colby walk in. Adam reminds JR that he is only in charge for a short time but JR ignores him. He then tells JR to get Colby her own parking space. She looks out the window and sees a car - her 18th birthday present - parked outside! JR thinks that is a bit extravagant. Adam pulls out Colby's next gift - the keys to the cabin at the lake! Both the car and the cabin are now hers. Colby can't believe it. When Colby leaves, JR calls Adam on the gifts and says bribery won't work on Colby; he says Adam shouldn't have tried to buy Colby's Chandler votes with a car and the lodge. Adam says he is taking the company back. JR says his online project is back on. Adam immediately pokes holes in his plans by telling JR that the company he is working with has an exclusive deal with Fusion! Adam leaves. Babe arrives and tells JR about her problems with work. He feels for her. He tells her about Adam's latest stunt and then swears not to let Adam take over again. Babe worries that this will finally turn JR into Adam. He swears he won't turn into Adam. Babe says she believes in him and they leave.
Jack arrives at the prison to see Erica. He asks how she can be sure that she'll be able to come through for Carmen. "Have you ever known me not to keep a promise?" she says. "Only the one you made me on our wedding day," Jack replies! Erica says that was a favor because if they were still married, he wouldn't be able to visit her in prison. Carmen arrives and Jack gives her bad news - Carmen can't work for Erica, Jack or any of their families. Erica takes the news in stride. Adam arrives, annoyed that Erica has summoned him. She offers him a way to change his public image - by hiring Carmen! Carmen watches them and doesn't believe for a second that Erica will pull it off. Adam tells Erica that he won't hire a crazy felon. Erica threatens to feature Adam's own craziness on a future episode if he doesn't comply. He gives in. Carmen is thrilled to learn she is nearly free.
At the Chandler manse, Barry stops by to tell Adam that JR planted the story of his breakdown in the papers. Adam is stunned. JR and Colby walk in and Adam covers their meeting, saying they were brainstorming a new idea. JR reminds both men that he is in charge now. Adam turns to Colby to begin planning her birthday party. She angrily asks how he can plan a party when he's been keeping the truth about Kathy secret for months. She and JR talk about Kathy and then JR leaves to see his new sister. Colby returns to Adam and Barry, who are discussing her shares of Chandler Enterprises. Barry leaves. Colby says she doesn't want to stay at the mansion because then she'll turn into him! Adam angrily says he loves her and is just trying to give her a good life. "Between you and mom, I don't stand a chance," she says. She tells Adam she wants him to be honest with her; he says she should go to Tad if she wants a warm-and-fuzzy dad. Colby says he hasn't lost her - yet! - but if he doesn't change, he will.
At the Chandler manse, Adam turns around to see Dixie there. She says he has saved his soul; Adam doesn't care about his soul. He goes on and on about losing JR and Colby. Dixie brings up Krystal but Adam won't talk about her either. Dix says he has taken the hardest step and just needs to continue on the right path. Just then Krystal arrives. "Never give up hope," Dixie says and disappears. Adam tries to push her away but Krystal won't leave. She says she wanted to hate him. "But you came through for Tad and for Kathy," she says and tells him she heard him with Kathy at the hospital. She touches his face and says he helped her see the man she fell in love with! Adam is shocked. She says she still can't trust him, though, and that she does love Tad. Adam says they can be the way they once were but she won't listen. Krystal runs out. Adam hears Dixie, again, tell him to keep the faith.
Colby returns to the mansion and confronts Adam. She calls him mean and horrible. Adam walks out.
Adam arrives at the hospital and sees Kathy run from Tad's room. Krystal follows her and so does he. Kathy won't talk to Krystal so Adam goes to her. He tells her how awful it was to lose his daughter and how bad he felt then. Finally, she says, "I want Tad." Krystal, who has been listening to everything Adam said, picks her up and returns her to Tad. Kathy hugs him and lays her head on his shoulder. Adam watches through the window. Krystal turns and smiles at him.
Adam looks at the story on the computer and swears revenge. JR calls the PR team to get damage control started. The PR team decides to send over a media team; JR advises Adam to be calm, cool and lucid when the reporters arrive. Adam turns things back on JR, saying if he wouldn't have committed Adam none of this would be happening. A reporter calls and JR hangs up on him. Adam goes on and on about finding out who leaked the story; JR is more concerned with damage control. Adam calls Barry and tells him to find out who leaked the story.
JR tells Adam to get out of Tad's room but Krystal intervenes, saying the men need to talk. She leads JR out as Adam tells Tad to let him have it. When Tad doesn't go on the attack, Adam tries to rile him up by saying he didn't deserve to find Kate because Tad stole Charlotte/Jenny from him. Tad still doesn't respond. Tad says Adam should trust his children and not try to turn them into Adam-Clones. Adam just keeps pushing, asking Tad how long he is going to keep coming after Adam's family. He goes on and on about Tad's sins - from keeping JR from Adam to keeping JR's child a secret to stealing Charlotte. Tad points out that all of Adam's children have practically run screaming from him before Tad ever stepped in, then he pulls back and tells Adam he wants to stop the fighting. Tad brings up Dixie and says he is glad she helped Adam do the right thing. "Thank you," Tad says and they shake hands. "But I still hate your guts." Adam smiles and walks out.
JR is at the mansion when Adam arrives. He says he won't forgive Adam but he will still work with him at Chandler. Adam says he is ready to take back the CEO reigns, angering JR. He says he won't let Adam take over! JR presses him about seeing Dixie and what will happen if and when she comes back. Adam says that isn't a problem. Just then Barry calls about a news article. The piece is about Adam's breakdown!
Erica is brought to the visitation room and is stunned to see Adam waiting. He says he needs a friend and apologizes for not helping her with the insider trading charges. Adam tells her about Kathy/Kate. Erica realizes Adam knew the truth for months before telling Tad. Adam defends his actions by blaming Tad for stealing Jenny from him and says now he has lost everything - his children and Krystal. Adam brings up Dixie and says he only did the right thing because she haunted him. Erica is shocked. When he goes on about being trapped, Erica sets him straight and points out that he still has freedom and can change his life. "You were good before, you can do it again," she says. Adam begins to feel better. He leaves. Erica calls Jack.
