The Waiting Game Begins...

At the hospital, a nurse begins CPR on Julia. Krystal can only watch as Joe says Julia didn't want surgery. Babe and JR arrive, worried about Tad. Krystal is startled to realize he was shot, too. Just then Frankie and Jake arrive with Tad on a gurney. One surgeon tries to keep Jake out of the OR but he insists on staying. Dixie appears and stands by Tad. Frankie goes to Krystal and fills her in on Tad's condition as Jesse and Angie arrive with Cassandra, Ruth, Opal and Greg in tow. Angie asks Frankie to care for Greg's wound; Krystal tells them that Julia is not doing well. Angie hurries off to find Jake and Tad. She gets to Julia's room first and tries to talk her back to life as the doctors shock her heart. Joe gives instructions for more drugs but Julia is already gone. Angie breaks down as they turn off the monitors and Joe halts CPR. Joe rages against Rob. In the hall, she tells him that Tad was shot, too. Annie arrives, eager to see Julia but Babe holds her back from going into the hospital room. In another treatment room, Frankie gives Greg some instructions on caring for his wound. Greg asks about Julia and Frankie tells him how Julia helped save his life. Frankie blames himself for Rob's actions. Greg says he couldn't have known how evil Rob was. Joe comes into the waiting room and tells everyone about Julia's death. No one can believe it. Joe hurries off to see about Tad. In his treatment room, Joe asks Jake for information. Jake says he is trying to stabilize Tad so they can operate but he's lost a lot of blood. Aidan arrives as Cass tells Frankie about Julia's death. Josh arrives and stands with Joe and Ruth. Jack is alone across the room. JR, Babe and Krystal are leaning on one another as they wait for news about Tad.

Zach calls the hospital and learns that Julia has died. Stunned, he tells Kendall and decides he has to call Maria. They go to the hospital; Zach talks to Joe about contacting Maria and learns that Julia asked Krystal to do it. Kendall sees Aidan at Julia's door and says how sorry she is. Ryan and Greenlee arrive; Jack fills them in. Greenlee sees Kendall and Aidan standing together. Annie walks up, sees Ryan with Greenlee and walks away quickly. Jack asks Ryan to give him a minute with Greenlee and then apologizes for telling her about Aidan and Kendall so abruptly. She says she is okay and asks Ryan to take her home. They leave together. Annie is sitting alone, crying, when she sees a brochure about fertility problems. Jake finally returns to the waiting room. He tells Joe that Tad still isn't stabilized but they can't wait any longer for surgery. Joe looks over the charts and hugs Jake. Krystal asks to see Tad first and Jake takes her into the room. JR realizes no one has called Jamie. Just then Adam arrives and asks what he can do. In the treatment room, Krystal begs Tad to hold on. She kisses him and says, "I love you." Krystal returns and sees Adam; she asks about Kathy. Adam sees Dixie is right behind her.

Tad Survives - For Now!

At the wedding, Jesse jumps from the roof to grab on to the helicopter. He stands on the landing platform and tries to wrestle the gun from Roberts grasp. Angie is unconscious beside him. She comes to and tries to regain control of the chopper. The chopper nearly crashes onto the roof but Robert regains control. Jesse shouts instructions to her but then Robert opens the chopper door, leaving Jesse literally hanging on for dear life! Jesse manages to regain control and throws Robert from the chopper! Jesse takes the controls.

Back on the roof, Tad has been shot. Jake and Frankie try to stop the bleeding, but the wound is very bad. Robert, tossed from the chopper, lands on the roof but they ignore him. The guys manage to control the bleeding. Dixie appears as Frankie tells Jake they are losing Tad! Just then, Robert opens his eyes. Dixie begs Tad to hang on. Frankie has a Swiss Army Knife and they use it to relieve the pressure on his lungs. Robert approaches with the gun and Frankie goes after him. More shots ring out! Frankie fights Robert as Jake concentrates on Tad, who is still struggling to breathe. Frankie finally has Robert under control as Jesse lands. Angie, hysterically laughing, says, "Boy, I do a lot for you, don't I?" Angie rushes to Jake and Tad as Jesse focuses on Frankie and Robert. Rob dares Jesse to shoot him but Frankie talks some sense into him and Jesse simply punches the man. The cops arrive and take Robert into custody. Jake and Angie say Tad doesn't have much time left. Frankie says he can fly them to the hospital. They load Tad, with Jake and Frankie along to care for him and fly to the hospital. On the roof, Jesse holds Angie.

Shots Fired! Julia's Down!

Upstairs in the Hubbards' private room, Jesse's still got Rob at gunpoint. Just as it looks like Jesse has the upper hand, Angie walks in, giving Rob the chance he needs to get away. Rob grabs her and holds her hostage, making Jesse drop his gun. Now Rob's got Jesse at gunpoint, so Jesse decides to play hardball, pulling out the diamond and waving it in the air. "You let her walk and I'll give you the diamond," Jesse promises. Angie begs Jesse to listen to Rob, who threatens to kill both of them if he doesn't get the diamond. Jesse kicks the diamond over to Rob, but Rob still won't let them go. "Who would've known 'until death do us part' would come so soon?" he taunts. Angie gets more and more hysterical, begging Rob to spare Jesse and kill her. She pleads him to take his diamond and go, but Rob plans to take Angie with him. He pulls Angie out of the room and then turns and points the gun back into the room at Jesse. Angie screams, her voice echoing throughout the entire hotel. Rob decides not to shoot Jesse, but to just get out and quick. He forces Angie toward the elevator.

JR and Babe are still in bed together, making love, when they hear Angie's scream. They rush to the door to investigate. As soon as they open the door, they see Rob escorting Angie to the elevator. Rob shoots his gun at JR, but misses. Suddenly Jesse bolts out of the room across the hall and pounds frantically on the elevator door, and then runs for the stairs to try to catch the two of them. Shaken and crying, Babe says it's a reminder that they can't take life for granted. "I love you so much," she whispers and they kiss.

Jesse, Tad, Jake and Frankie try to head off Rob and Angie as they get into the elevator again, but he threatens to kill Angie and once again wins out. It's back to the stairwell for Jesse, this time with help from Tad, Jake and Frankie. Rob and Angie are also in the stairwell and as she yells that they're headed for the roof, Rob shoots blindly over the rail at the pursuers. Rob and Angie reach the rooftop, where the helicopter is waiting. Rob approaches the helicopter and shoots the pilot, then drags Angie inside. Just as he's about to board the helicopter himself, the guys pile out of the stairwell. Rob hails the doorway with a barrage of gunfire. The helicopter takes off and the guys run out on the rooftop to catch it. Rob shoots out the window of the helicopter and, though Dixie tries to stop it from happening, Tad runs right through her and is hit by a bullet! Jesse dives off the edge of the building, hands outstretched to catch the runner of the helicopter...

Caught!

Meanwhile, Tad offers up a toast to the happy couple and once again introduces Ne-Yo, who sings for the bride and groom's wedding dance. The party's in full swing as couples pair off and hit the dance floor. Opal begs Rob to dance with her, promising to give him whatever information he needs about Jesse and Angie if he'll join her in a dance. During the dance, she's slightly put off when she discovers he's carrying a gun. But he explains it away and Opal believes him, soaking up his charm. Opal's feeling naughty and agrees to visit a supply closet with Rob for a little alone time. She tells him that Tad has arranged for a surprise helicopter to whisk away the bride and groom after the wedding. Rob pulls out his handy syringe and gives Opal a shot of goodnight. He leaves her there and heads out with a purposeful look.

Jesse and Angie take a break from the dance floor, just in time for Greg to give them a wedding gift. It's a t-shirt from The Steam Pit. Later, they split up and dance with their kids. Cassandra thanks Jesse for making Angie so happy. He thanks her for keeping an open mind and giving him a shot. "You make it really hard not to like you," Cassandra says. "I think things are going to work out just fine for our family." Later, Angie, too, thanks her daughter for accepting Jesse into her life. They notice Jesse is missing.

Rob schmoozes the hotel's front desk clerk, pulling out his FBI badge to get a key to the Hubbards' room. In their room, Rob finds the elephant. He whips out a knife and cuts it open. He pulls out all the stuffing to find no diamond. He curses and tosses the elephant to the floor. But before he can think of what to do next, he hears a voice in the doorway. "Lookin' for this?" Jesse asks, holding a giant diamond in one hand and a gun in the other, pointing it directly at Robert. Rob tries to wriggle his way out of it again, weaving a ribbon of lies, but Jesse won't hear of it. "Stop it!" he yells. "I know who you are. I know what you are!" Jesse forces Rob to drop his gun and proceeds to tell Rob how he solved the puzzle. Jesse pulls out a bug, one used by the FBI. He talks about Cassandra's grogginess the other day. Then Jesse holds up the origami crane, saying he put together all the pieces once he found it. "Now it's payback time," Jesse says. Rob suggests that he and Jesse cut a deal. But Jesse's bitter. Rob's anger ratchets up as he recalls his obsession over the diamond for the past 20 years. He dares Jesse: Give me the diamond or go ahead and shoot me.
