"Where's My Baby?"

Babe returns to Krystal's room, telling her that Jenny will be there soon. She explains that the strike is slowing everything down. Krystal doesn't believe her and doesn't want to wait any longer so Babe comes up with more reasons for the slow down. "What aren't you telling me?" Krystal asks. Babe beats around the bush, not telling Krystal anything but also not letting her out of the room. Krystal realizes something is wrong and worries that Jenny could be sick. Angry, Krystal storms out of the room before Babe can stop her! Krystal tears through the hospital halls but a security guard stops her before she can enter the nursery. The guard won't let her in, worrying her even more. Joe arrives and tries to calm Krystal down; his arrival distracts the security guard and Krystal makes it inside to find Jenny is gone! "Where are all the babies?" Krystal asks. Joe tries to reassure her but Krystal wants answers. "Are you saying that my baby is gone?" she asks!

Trouble in Pine Valley

In the hospital hallway, JR runs into Joe and Jeff. The three begin arguing about the strike and how chaotic the hospital is. Joe and Jeff tell JR that the board is responsible, not the nurses! Tad follows JR and listens to the argument for a moment. When Jeff leaves, Tad steps in asking JR to try to fix the strike. Both men leave for the nursery. As they walk, Tad tries to convince JR to take a second look at the budget. They get to the nursery and see Jenny's empty crib! They return to the room, paging Joe but they don't go inside. "Jenny is missing," Tad tells Joe when he comes out of the room. Joe tries to reassure them that the baby was probably just taken to the wrong floor, incensing Tad. "We'll find her," Joe says, heading off to track down the baby. Joe locks down the hospital as Jamie arrives and JR fills him in. "I want answers," Tad demands as JR and Jamie try to calm him down. Tad, though, doesn't think it is a mix up at all. "This can't be happening, not again," he says. Joe returns with bad news: Jenny is nowhere to be found!

Center of Controversy

In the hospital nursery, Jamie introduces himself to Jenny. At the front desk, Julia and Jeff discuss the possible strike. JR stops by, telling her to talk to the head-bean-counter - him! JR tries to explain the hospital board's position on the nurses salary issue. Julia could care less about what the board wants. Jamie comes over, agreeing with Julia! He and JR step away. Still angry because JR sided with Krystal over Jenny, Jamie tells him that as long as he stays at the mansion he is leaving himself open to working with Adam! JR asks Jamie how Tad has turned into a saint for sleeping with a married woman. "I'm ready to move on. So come on or get out of my way," he warns, leaving. Jamie returns to Julia, asking if there is anything he can do. Julia sends him home and waits for word from Jeff alone. He leaves the elevator, shakes his head and the nurses go on strike! "This is where we walk," Julia says and she and the other nurses leave the hospital. Joe meets Jeff in the lobby, both annoyed with the strike and the hospital board. Joe asks him if anything else is bothering him and Jeff talks about Erica and Josh.

Will Justice Be Served?

Arriving at the hospital, Dr. Joe asks Julia to try and put a hold on the nurse's strike, but she isn't sure she can convince the nurse's union. She sees Josh with drugs and asks what he is trying to do. He tells her about Alexander's hearing and asks her to ignore his being there. Dr. Joe comes in, sees Josh with the drugs and orders him to put them down! Josh asks Joe for permission to drug Alexander, to prove the man isn't crazy, but Joe won't let Josh do it. "Life is not always fair. You find another way to do this," he says.

Meanwhile in Krystal's hospital room, Adam angrily confronts her over Colby's change of heart. Adam tells Krystal that he won't allow Colby to move in with the Careys! "I'm not going to let you warp my daughter," he says as Krystal orders him to leave. Adam gets in her face, threatening Jenny! "You even look at her cross-eyed and I swear it will be your last act on earth," she threatens. Annoyed, Adam moves to the door, but when Krystal doesn't back down, he returns to argue more with her. She picks up the phone to call security and Adam finally leaves. Adam approaches and watches Colby with Sean for several moments. Colby turns to go to Krystal's room and Adam warns her to stay away from Krystal - and Sean! Colby ignores him and leaves; Adam threatens Sean, who also ignores him. Adam stands outside the nursery window for a long time, staring at Jenny. Dr. Joe confronts him; telling him that if anyone in the Martin family is harmed, he will be held accountable! Back in Krystal's room, Colby tells her that she wants to live with her. "I could help you with Jenny and everything," Colby says. Krystal tells Colby to think about what she is doing, reminding her that Adam does love her. Hugging Colby, Krystal says "You're brave and you're smart and you have the most beautiful heart," and asks Colby to join the family.

Adam Goes On The Attack!

Inside Joe's hospital office, Tad breaks the baby news to his father and Livia and asks for her help to gain custody of Charlotte! Joe is stunned. Livia and Joe both suggest another paternity test, after Charlotte is born, before making a custody move but Tad doesn't want to wait. He suggests comparing his DNA test to Charlotte's CVS test to get the results faster. Joe orders copies of the tests and then tells Tad to be very careful of Adam, but Tad is more worried about the child. Livia interrupts their love-fest, telling them that they need to be sure of the paternity before making any kind of a move. Neither man is listening, though. A lab tech comes in with the test results from the DNA and CVS tests and Joe looks them over. "You're going to have a daughter," he says!

An Emotional Day

At the cemetery, Ryan shows Jack the most recent note from the killer, wondering why the killer has chosen to communicate with him. Jack doesn't have any answers. He surprises Ryan with his next words. "I've heard from Greenlee!" She contacted Jack after hearing about the killings. Hearing from Greenlee has made Jack realize all he has to lose and he swears to help protect Kendall. Tad and Derek arrive as flower delivery men bring in gardenias and white ribbons! Derek takes the flowers away as the guests begin arriving. Amanda stands over Babe's coffin with Jonathan and Aidan. Bianca hugs Tad and then moves to comfort Krystal. Palmer and Opal make a beeline for Dixie's casket. Myrtle and Dr. Joe Martin arrive and speak with Zach. When Zoe arrives, the gathered crowd turns to watch. Erica arrives with Jeff, causing Jack to look twice. Zach remains near the entrance, almost as if he is standing guard. Adam opens the floor for others to talk about Babe and Dixie. Bianca steps up, telling them that she had forgiven Babe for taking Miranda and that she wished Babe could know. Tad remembers the first time he met Dixie at Myrtle's store. After being so strong, Tad breaks down a little. "I could see my future," he says, crying. "I could see our future." Jamie comes up, to lead Tad back to his seat. Di steps up, saying "I'm going to miss her every day of my life!" In tears, Krystal throws herself on top of Babe's casket. Adam and Colby quickly lead her back to her seat. Zoe stands up and begins to sing, "You Lift Me Up". She continues to sing as the rest of Pine Valley file by the caskets. Finally stepping forward, JR reaches out to touch Babe's casket and begins to cry.

Dixie's Final Scene

At the hospital, Jeff and Joe pull Tad back from Dixie as the monitors flatline. Jamie and JR burst into the room. As the crowd is pushed out by a nurse, JR assures Tad that Dixie will pull through. JR can't forget what Dixie told him; Tad continues to hear Dixie tell him "Together". Opal, Di and Dell are anxious for news, but no one can give them progress reports. In the background, Tad remembers the good times with Dixie and JR recalls the Christmas pageant and Dixie helping him through his solo. Jamie recalls bringing a frog home and losing it. Inside the hospital room, Joe realizes he may not be able to save Dixie and remembers advising her against another pregnancy. Tad flashes back to their weddings.

At the Chandler mansion, Babe is in shock. Adam goes on the attack, telling her everything that has happened is her fault. Jack interrupts the fight, telling Adam to go to the hospital. His family needs him. Derek and Jack begin questioning Zarf and Babe erupts in anger. Those were her pancakes, if anyone is to blame, it is her not Zoe. In tears, Babe asks to go to the hospital to see JR. She and a bodyguard leave.
As Babe arrives in the waiting room to comfort JR, Dr. Joe Martin comes outside. "We lost her," he says. Without saying a word, Tad leaves the crowd. Joe keeps Jamie from following his father and Babe comforts JR. Angry, he demands that Joe go back inside and fix Dixie. Finally realizing his mother is gone, JR asks to see Dixie. Babe wheels him inside. Jamie follows with Adam and Opal. Dixie singing "You Are My Sunshine" fills the room. Those closest to Dixie say their goodbyes, but Jamie can't. He stays in the back of the room, crying. Di leaves the room, angry that they couldn't catch the killer before he got to Dixie. Aidan takes her in his arms and holds her while she cries. As JR takes Dixie's hand, she appears and her spirit squeezes his shoulder, then moves to Jamie. Her spirit can't find Tad in the hospital. Babe brings JR his mother's bracelet and, crying, he puts it on Dixie's wrist. "I love you, Mama," he says.

Poisoned Pancakes!

Meanwhile at the police station, Zach wants to take Kendall and leave, but Tad and Jack continue questioning him. Has he come up with a connection? Jack tells the crowd the only thing Kenny has done since being released is go to the supermarket and Derek tells them Zarf is still his prime suspect. Josh comes in, demanding Zach be arrested because of the love letters. Zach explains the only thing he knows about the love letters is that they were written by a man named Raymond. Angry that they are questioning Zach, who is as a much a victim as anyone else, Kendall says she is tired of hiding. If the killer wants her, she's right here! Josh takes Kendall for a walk to calm her down. Jack and Derek discuss the suspect list and Zach takes Tad aside, telling him that under the influence he told Josh about Greg's death. Everyone comes to attention when Derek takes a call from Adam - he orders officers to the Chandler mansion immediately. Josh streaks out before Derek can tell him the attack wasn't on Babe. It was Dixie!

At the hospital, Tad and Jamie arrive as Dixie is brought in. As Dr. Joe and Dr. Jeff Martin begin working on Dixie, Tad and Jamie are left outside the ER room with Krystle and JR. Krystle leads Jamie away to notify friends and family. A broken up JR almost tells Tad Dixie's secret. JR and Tad are inconsolable; Opal, Di and Dell arrive, talking to Jamie. Jamie comforts Opal, who can't find Palmer. Unable to wait outside, Tad bursts in to the hospital room. He begs Dixie to hold on, to fight. Dixie opens her eyes! Tad is relieved that Dixie is awake and calls her his dream come true. Dixie takes the oxygen mask from her face and says "Together". The monitors begin to flatline.
