She warns him to calm down and stop acting crazy! Across the bar, Derek sees them and joins the crowd with a warning. "I don't want to see anyone taking matters into their own hands," he warns them. Di assures him that they want Alexander punished - not dead. Jonathan stays quiet, then realizes that Derek is talking mostly to him. "You think I'm going to go after Alexander, don't you?" Jonathan asks. When Derek doesn't answer, Jonathan heads to the bar to order a fresh drink. Ryan follows, angering Jonathan even more.

The Wheels Are Spinning

Annie follows, offering her support for the morning sickness and anything else that is bothering Kendall. "No one believed me about Terry," she says, telling Kendall that she understands what she is going through. She tells Kendall that she prayed for Terry to die and now she thanks God for answering her prayers. "So I should pray?" Kendall asks. Annie tells her to pray and fight for Zach and her family. Zach arrives, wondering what is going on. Annie leaves Zach and Kendall alone and she wonders where he has been. He tells her about the visit with Alexander and realizes that Alexander has nothing over him any longer! "Finally, I'm in complete control," he says. Back in the office, Babe and Ryan bond.

Will Justice Be Served?

In the courthouse, the police wheel Alexander in as his lawyers prepare for the hearing. The judge asks Alexander if he understands why he is there but all Alexander does is scream and begin talking in rhyme, "Yesterday upon the stair, I met a man who was not there!" he says over and over. The judge doesn't stand for Alexander's outburst, telling him that any more outbursts will land him back in jail. Jackson stands, telling the judge that Alexander is acting! Del lunges toward Alexander, but before he can attack the bailiffs pull him from the courtroom. The judge orders the lawyers into his chambers.

Ryan sits beside Jonathan, who says the bailiffs wouldn't have been able to stop him like they stopped Del! Outside, Di tries to calm Del. JR approaches to thank Del for his actions! "You spoke for all of us in there," he says, surprising Del. The hearing resumes and Jack begins questioning one of Alexander's psychiatrists. As he talks, Kendall begins to sway, reacting to the stress of the hearing. She leaves for the restroom and Hannah follows. In the hall, Kendall tries to gather herself and Hannah asks how she is. "I can hear him breathing," she says, finally reacting to the torture that Alexander put her through. Hannah tells Kendall that Alexander will never hurt anyone else.

Josh arrives, telling Zach that the drugs are a no-go. Jack calls Alexander to the witness stand as Kendall returns to the courtroom. Alexander ignores Jack even when he tosses a ball at Alexander! Jack reads off the list of men and women that Alexander killed and then points out Babe - the woman he couldn't kill. As Jack talks, those in the courtroom flash back to the various attacks and the aftermath. Still, Alexander doesn't respond to the questioning. The judge orders Jack to release Alexander. He does and calls Zach to the stand. Testifying, Zach tells the courtroom that he isn't Alexander's biological son. His real father was Jenkins! The revelation surprises everyone in the courtroom. "What do you think of that, Alex?" Zach asks, telling him that he gave Cambias Industries to his wife's lover's child. Finally, Alexander reacts by standing up, but he gathers himself before losing his cool and begins repeating the rhyme again! The judge orders a recess; Jonathan approaches Jack, thanking him for what he did in court. Hannah watches Kendall and Zach from the back row. Outside, Annie tells Ryan that justice will be served. Ryan, though, doesn't see how the judge could rule against Alexander's plea.

Court is called back into session. The judge calls Alexander a murderer, telling him that he believes it is all an act. Unfortunately, he has no proof that Alexander is acting and releases him to a psychiatric facility. Everyone reacts badly to the news. As Alexander is wheeled away, Tad sits with his hands clenched together. Aidan joins him, saying a bullet through the head is the right justice for Alexander! Zach and Kendall stand together and watch Alexander until he is gone. Babe asks if Zach is really Jenkins' son and he admits that it was a lie. He leaves Kendall with Babe, Ryan and Annie and leaves the courtroom.

Ready for Court?

At the Slater home, Zach reacts to news that Alexander might get off on an insanity plea! "Your father can terrorize us all over again?" Kendall asks. Zach gets upset and heads for the courthouse, telling Kendall to stay behind. As soon as he is gone, Kendall calls Ryan for help. Ryan and Annie arrive and both are stunned with the news about Alexander's latest scheme. "Please find him and make sure Zach doesn't wind up behind bars," Kendall begs. Ryan heads out after Zach, leaving Annie with Kendall.

At the courthouse, Jack assures Derek that he will take over the trial reigns and keep Alexander behind bars! Jonathan, Aidan, Dell and Di arrive, incensed that Alexander might get off with an insanity plea. "The judge actually believes this rubbish?" Aidan asks. Jack tells them that Alexander will be sent to a mental institution but that doesn't make anyone feel better. After all, Janet just escaped from a similar institution! Ryan arrives and Jack tries to get him to calm Jonathan. "He has to pay," Jonathan says and storms from the courtroom. Ryan tells Jack that whatever Alexander is paying the judge, he will double. Jack assures him that the judge is an honorable man. In the hall, Zach runs into Tad, telling him that he was wrong for talking Zach out of killing his father in Vegas! Kendall arrives, telling Zach that she is not leaving him to face Alexander alone. Zach gives in and together they head inside. Kendall talks briefly with Hannah, eager to confront Alexander; Hannah warns her to keep her distance. Annie reassures Ryan that she will help keep an eye on Jonathan as Babe arrives asking if the news is true. Meanwhile, Jack tells Zach that he is going to motion for a stay so that they can get their own psychiatrist to examine Alexander. "And if that doesn't work, it's up to you," Jack says, telling Zach that he may have to break his father down! Alexander is wheeled into the room, singing the Red Rock song over and over.
