Annie Quits!

Kendall and Greenlee are working when she brings up Spike's bad night. Annie hears them and starts in on her again about keeping Spike hidden from her. She goes to the lounge and Kendall tells Greens that Annie has more issues than normal. Amanda, Randi and Babe arrive. They both think Randi could be Fusion's new model! Babe and Amanda set them straight about Randi's receptionist job. Kendall says Babe made a mistake by not hiring Carmen. Amanda sticks up for Babe, saying they need to trust her instincts since they keep abandoning the place. They argue and Greenlee and Kendall say they can quit any time and they need to remember their boundaries. Frustrated, Amanda and Babe go to their desks; Amanda says Babe should be in charge! Annie returns and continues her argument with Kendall. She brings Greenlee into it, saying she knows Greenlee isn't over Ryan! Amanda and Randi hear them arguing; Randi says it isn't a real fight unless someone pulls a knife! When they bring up Annie's crimes, Annie pushes their crimes right back at them. Babe tells them all to grow up and get to work or leave. Annie quits! Greenlee tries to convince her to stay but Annie refuses. Amanda asks Randi about modeling and she says she isn't interested in anyone taking her picture or being on television because of her past. Amanda is understanding. Babe brings in a huge package for Amanda. It's a pirate outfit - from Jake! He wants her to meet him at ConFusion that afternoon. Babe tries to change Amanda's mind from going but she insists on going so Randi helps her get ready. Annie, with a box in hand, grabs the picture, tells them off one last time and walks out. Greenlee asks what the big deal is about the picture frame and key. Kendall says Annie has a strange key hidden in the frame and she believes it is another strike against the woman. She pulls a duplicate from her purse!

Babe walks into JR's bedroom, kisses him and starts undressing him!

Why? Why? Why?

At the Chandler Mansion, Babe sits down with JR and thanks him again for helping Kathy the day before. Adam interrupts, not happy to find them kissing. When he keeps pushing them, Babe brings up Krystal dumping him. He backs off and Babe leaves for work after advising Adam to have some prunes. When she is gone, Adam brings up the Fusion deal and says Babe will soon be working for him. JR says the company is going to be Babe's free and clear! Adam wants to tell Babe everything but JR insists on keeping the deal quiet. Adam says their biggest problems are going to be Kendall and Greenlee, who don't need any of their cash. JR says they'll come up with another reason for them to sell. Adam says they need someone on the inside - and Babe is just the woman for the job. JR leaves. Adam calls Barry and says they have to proceed with their plans to oust JR - and Babe, Kendall and Greenlee! - from Fusion!

Amanda walks in to Fusion to find a note from Randi about morning snacks. Jake walks in as Amanda is moving a huge bouquet of flowers for Kendall. She pokes her eye accidentally and Jake comes to her rescue. He flirts with her a little bit and she flirts back. He puts a patch on her eye and says she should see an eye doctor. Amanda makes awful pirate noises as she bumps into chairs and desks. Jake brings up his real reason for stopping by - a donation request for Kendall from Doctors Without Borders. He asks how she is doing and Amanda says she is fine but overworked. She tells him about Greenlee's impromptu wedding in Vegas. Babe arrives, ready to get to work and asks what happened to Amanda. She tells her and asks for vacation time. Babe says there is no way she can spare her. Jake leaves but says she can call on him if she feels worse. Babe asks if she really hurt herself. She says she did. Since they are alone, Amanda and Babe talk about their secret project, eager to get something going without Kendall and Greens. They get to work and soon realize that Kendall and Greenlee really dropped the ball in the last week; they spend a lot of time putting out fires. JR arrives as Amanda leaves to create some last minute reports. He tells Babe to imagine herself in the boss's seat. She says she isn't ready for it yet. He says she deserves more than she is getting and asks her to trust him. Amanda returns after nearly hitting a bus bench because her depth perception is ruined. JR teases her about the patch and leaves. Amanda asks Babe if they have time for the secret project now.

Petey Saves the Day!

JR, Babe and little Adam walk in as Krystal, Kathy and Tad are still in the middle of their blow out. Kathy repeats that she doesn't want Krystal around. Krystal tries to explain about love and feelings but Kathy won't listen. Tad steps in and goes through all of their family, thinking that will help. He reminds her that she has a lot of family now and she seems to straighten up. Babe leads the kids and Krystal upstairs for a movie. JR turns to Tad and says he may be taking Kathy's feelings too lightly! Babe takes Krystal aside and asks how she is really doing. Krystal is obviously torn up about Kathy. JR, meanwhile, tells Kathy that there are a lot of people she can love and who can love her. He says Krystal is a great mother. "But mom's leave," Kathy says. Krystal rushes to her side and tries to reassure her, saying she won't leave. She hugs Kathy and the little girl apologizes. Babe tells JR he did a great thing for Krystal. Babe and Tad put the kids to bed. When they return, Krystal tells him she loves Kathy. On the stairs, Kathy pulls the head off the mommy doll that Krystal bought!

Big Business Decisions!

In his home office, JR asks Babe about work and when she tells him Greenlee and Kendall skipped town again he hands her a large check and says she should welcome Kendall and Greens home with it! She rips up the check and says he can't replace Chandler with Fusion. JR says he wants to give her Fusion because she deserves better than Kendall and Greenlee are giving her. He keeps pressing her until she says she doesn't want Fusion. She brings up her past; JR says she doesn't need a degree to run the business. He tries to encourage her, telling her that she is as capable, if not more, than Kendall and Greenlee put together! She kisses him and leaves. Adam walks in and JR tells him that they should take over Fusion! He shows Adam the numbers, intriguing him. When JR says he is working on a plan, Adam says they don't need a plan they need action! He makes fun of JR because he wants Babe to be in charge. JR reminds Adam of their working together plan. He says Fusion could give Colby job opportunities plus, they would get to put Zach in his place finally! "Revenge does have a certain appeal," Adam says. JR makes plans and tells Adam they just have to make it seem as if the take-over was inevitable. He says they can't let Babe in on the plot and together he and Adam decide to strike fast - directly at Kendall and Greenlee!

Randi arrives at Fusion and immediately feels out of place because she didn't dress as sexy as Amanda did. Amanda tells her to relax and brings up Carmen. Randi won't answer. They talk fashion and Amanda gives her a few tips and shows Randi to her desk. The 12-line phone system makes her nervous so Amanda shows her around the office. Randi asks about Kendall and Greenlee; Amanda says they are brilliant but they can be difficult to deal with because of their dysfunctional relationship. They talk about their pasts but Randi won't open up; Amanda tells her about Janet. Randi still won't open up so Amanda says she saw Randi the night she was arrested for being a hooker because of Babe's scheme. Randi gets angry. Amanda stops her, says she hired Randi because she believes in her - not because she feels sorry for her or because it was a joke. Randi decides to take the job and signs the contract. Amanda promises not to tell anyone her secret and encourages her not to give up. Amanda brings up the phone system again and teases Randi about putting Frankie on speed dial. She says Frankie is just a friend. Amanda doesn't believe her and says they should double-date, if she could get Jake to notice her. Babe walks in and asks what is going on. They convince her that nothing is happening. In the office, Babe looks at the cover story of Kendall and Greenlee and settles back in Kendall's chair. Amanda asks what she's planning.

A Lightbulb Moment!

Meanwhile, upstairs at Fusion, Carmen asks Babe if she can see Kendall. Babe explains that Kendall is out of town; Carmen says Adam fired her and Erica thought she could work at Fusion! She starts to leave but Babe stops her, saying she just received hiring power and can't believe her luck! She is worried, though, that Kendall will fire Carmen as soon as she returns. She goes out on a limb, though, and hires her. Amanda arrives a few minutes later and introduces Randi as their new hire; Babe says they can't hire Randi because she already hired Carmen. They argue and Amanda says they are turning into Kendall and Greens! Babe apologizes to Randi, who is very gracious and says she understands why she can't be hired. Amanda apologizes to her and so does Babe. She also tells Randi that she will be their next call. Amanda leads her away. Carmen returns and bumps into Randi. "What are you doing here?" they ask at the same time! Carmen clams up when Babe questions how they know one another and says she doesn't want the job. She leaves!

You're Fired!

At the Chandler mansion, JR and Babe follow Colby to the door, telling her that she needs to attend an AA meeting. She doesn't want to and insists she doesn't have a drinking problem. JR and Babe won't listen so to get them to stop, she agrees to go. Babe leaves for work.

Amanda is the only one at Fusion when Babe arrives. They complain about the missing-in-action Greenlee, Kendall and Annie, saying the women are taking advantage of them! Kendall arrives with snacks and coffees but they give her the cold shoulder. She finally gets Babe talking about Colby and JR and things start to feel normal. Then she says she is leaving town for an extended weekend with Annie, Ryan and Zach. "I quit!" Babe exclaims and storms off. Amanda follows. Kendall stops them at the elevator and explains about Annie's issues. She begs them not to quit. Babe points out that Annie and Ryan need time alone - not with her! Kendall says this trip is the only way to find out what is really wrong with Annie. Babe and Amanda finally give in and agree to hold down the fort once Kendall agrees to consider raises and a better work schedule in the future. Kendall gives Babe hiring power to get them some more office staff and leaves.
