In the park, Rob calls an associate and says he never dreamed Remy's body would be found. He says to keep Angie under surveillance and hangs up. Rob arrives at Tad's where Krystal and Opal are waiting. Opal doesn't recognize Rob at first and when she realizes who he is tells him to get out! Rob turns on the charm and tells Opal that he knows all about Ray and ran as far and as fast as he could. He shows Opal some old scars from Ray; Opal apologizes and asks about his life. Rob says he lived in Atlanta with his wife, who has died, and now he just wants to reconnect with the rest of his family. Rob folds an origami bird and gives it to Opal. Opal stops him from leaving by introducing him to baby Jenny. He holds a fussy Jenny who calms down as soon as she is in his arms. Krystal asks about Rob's plans and he says he's been gambling for a few months and visiting casinos and says he might stay around Pine Valley for a while. Rob subtly asks about Remy's death. Opal begins to go on about Jesse and Remy; Krystal tries to change the subject but Opal just keeps talking. She tells Rob all about Angie and Frankie and their lives since Jesse died. As they talk Tad walks in and asks what Rob is doing there. Opal tells him about Rob's history but Tad isn't as gullible as Opal and wonders why Opal has told Rob the history of the Martin and Hubbard family. Opal says Rob has been under the weather but Tad doesn't completely buy it. When Opal shows Rob to the kitchen Tad begs Krystal to take Jenny out of town for a while. She refuses. Before he can argue more Tad gets a call. He gives Krystal one last warning - to keep Jenny away from Rob - and leaves. Opal and Rob return; Rob wonders what case has Tad leaving the house so suddenly. Rob leaves a while later. Opal is certain that Rob is 100% different from Ray and hopes Tad will like him, too.
Kendall Attacks Her Stalker!
Erica finishes her press conference. Opal has arrived and says how proud she is. A few reporters stay behind to ask questions but Erica won't answer any of them. Pam asks Erica if she is certain she did the right thing and Erica says yes. Jack says this may have been a colossal mistake. He is even more annoyed when he realizes Opal convinced Erica to come forward with her plea. Jack angrily quits as her defense attorney! Sam approaches Erica and surprises her by saying he isn't angry at her maneuver. They exchange a few barbs, with Erica stating she still doesn't think she did anything wrong. Then, she threatens to find whatever secrets Samuel has - and tell the world about them! He walks away. Sam runs into Jack, who tells him that just because he doesn't work for Erica doesn't mean he isn't watching her back. Jack walks off. Sam turns and watches the reporters fawn over Erica.
Jesse's In Trouble
Tad arrives at Frankie's room, where Angie is checking on him. Frankie is doing very well so Tad asks how Angie is doing. She says she is fine but in the next breath asks who Tad was talking to in the car the night before. Tad clams up. Frankie notices that the family portrait is gone and wonders where it is. Angie says they'll find it and then Tad surprises both by asking for some pictures of Jesse before he died! He says he's reopened an old case that has similarities to Jesse's murder; Frankie has a lot of questions but Tad won't answer. Frankie gets Angie to agree to give him a wheelchair so he and Tad can wander the hospital. While Angie is distracted with a phone call, Frankie tells Tad he has questions about his father. Tad is called away to the phone, too! It's Jesse; he makes Tad promise to keep his secret and hangs up. Angie comes over, says Frankie's wheelchair is on the way and walks off. Tad is wheeling Frankie around the hospital when he asks about Jesse. They pick a quiet spot and Tad tells Frankie a little about Jesse. Opal interrupts them. She chatters about Angie and then she starts in on the Romeo and Juliet qualities that Jesse and Angie had. Frankie is very intrigued by the stories. Opal asks about Jenny, offers her babysitting services and then continues on her way. "You've just been Opalized," Tad says. Frankie brings up Jesse. "I could smell his aftershave, his cologne," Frankie says, asking if there is any chance that Jesse is still alive. Tad reminds him that Jesse died in Angie's arms. Frankie says he knows Tad's new case is somehow related to Jesse! Tad begins pushing Frankie back to his room and runs into Opal as his phone rings. Opal takes over wheelchair duties and Tad answers the phone. His contacts don’t have much news about Jesse, which has Tad very worried.

She thinks Quentin is a celebrity but he insists he is nobody. Opal is certain she knows him from somewhere, though. She leaves and Quentin has a severe stomach pain. He begins self-diagnosing himself and Julia wonders who he is. She pressures him to tell the truth but Quentin will only say that he picked up some medical lingo while he was in Iraq.

Before she can leave Opal and Ruth walk in and Adam gives them the "good news". Tad's moms are stunned. Adam points out that Tad and Krystal can't be married because she still hasn't divorced Adam yet! Krystal holds up the divorce papers - the papers that were in her bag at the chapel - which have been signed. Adam still doesn't want to believe it. Tad pulls out their marriage certificate and that finally convinces Adam that they aren't joking. He pulls Krystal aside and asks where he fits in her family.

He remains focused on Krystal's marriage, asking what will happen when she needs him in her bed. Krystal says it doesn't matter. "You have a piece of my heart, Adam, but you're not the only one," she says, telling him that she can't forgive his taking Jenny from her. Adam makes excuses but Krystal doesn't believe him. She tells him that though she still loves him he scares her to death. Back in the living room Tad's moms turn to him and tell him they won't talk about the seriousness of his new marriage on Christmas Day.

Richie Seals Zach's Fate!
At The Comeback, Derek tells everyone that they may have found the car that hit Zach. Before he can give a lot of details about the blood on the car, Julia stops him and reminds him there are children around. Derek gives the G-rated version of events and says they haven't been able to type the blood. Across the room, Colby asks JR where little A is and he tells her about the Lavery family dinner. Joe captures everyone's attention and begins the Thanksgiving prayer. Everyone becomes quiet and then the feast begins. After the prayer, Opal begins the annual tradition of telling what she is thankful for. Krystal and Colby join in and so does Julia. Everyone joins in; Adam stops them all when he says he is thankful for JR and a year's worth of sobriety. JR leaves the table; Adam follows him and they have a heated exchange about drinking at the bar. Jack watches them. Opal turns to Jack and asks about Greenlee. She tells him that things will work out; Jack hopes so. She turns the subject to Erica but Jack receives a phone call. He ignores the call, though.

Meanwhile, Tad and Hannah talk about the mistakes they've made with love in the past; Tad wonders what Krystal will do about Adam.

It's Thanksgiving!

Babe tries to tell Krystal about the dinner at Ryan and Annie's but Krystal won't let her get a word in edgewise. JR walks in and listens to them talk about Kendall and Zach. Krystal returns to work and Babe keeps trying to tell her about the Lavery dinner but can't. Tad comes in, says he'll stay for the meal but then wants to get back to the search party. Adam walks in, too, with a toy for Jenny. Amanda walks in and heads straight for Babe. She apologizes for her one-night-stand with JR but Amanda won't listen. She thanks them for the invite and then continues on her way. Krystal, at a table with Tad, talks about the kind of person who would hit Zach and continue on. Tad spots JR and goes over to talk to him. He tells JR what a great job he's been doing in making changes in his life; this only makes JR feel more guilty and he turns away. Tad tells him not to stay away from the family. Finally Babe gets Krystal to listen to her and tells her about the Lavery family dinner. Krystal is stunned and drags Babe into a corner, telling her she isn't going anywhere with Richie. JR joins them and Babe fills him in; he says it's fine even though Krystal tries to convince Babe (and JR) that the Lavery dinner is a mistake. Babe leaves to pick up little A. Hannah walks in and makes a beeline for Tad; she tells him she'll leave if that would be more comfortable for him. He asks her to stay and tells her not to worry about Adam and promises to keep her secrets. She asks about news from the search but Tad doesn't know anything. Julia and Kathy arrive.
