Erica arrives at the Chandler mansion, asking him to reconsider the kidnapping! The police arrive right behind her to question Adam; the officer asks her to leave but she refuses to leave. The lieutenant tells Adam about Amanda's confession, without mentioning her name, surprising Adam. Telling the officer that the informant is lying, Adam swears to never have seen Janet.

The lieutenant returns, asking why Adam became friendly with Janet when he was taken to the same hospital a few weeks ago. He explains he was trying to save his own life! The police leave to continue their search, leaving Erica and Adam alone. He doesn't open up to her. Instead, he turns his anger on her because she refused to help him have Krystal and Babe sent away on insurance fraud charges. "I am your last hope," Erica cries, refusing to leave the mansion! When she raises the issue of the yacht, Adam assures her that he didn't buy her yacht to hide Janet and the baby away. Erica tries to get through to him, telling him she doesn't blame him for acting out. Still, Adam won't admit to the kidnapping. She tries to make him see that hurting Tad by taking his baby isn't the way to get revenge. She explains that Krystal took advantage of Tad's weakness and hurt nine months earlier and now Adam is hurting Tad even more by taking his second daughter.

Sitting on the New Beginnings stage, Bianca and Zoe talk about leaving. She reassures Zoe that the interview went well and hands her a note from a fan. Reluctantly, Zoe opens it, remembering all of the messages and emails she has gotten in the last few hours. The note is from her father! Calling her "Freddie" in the letter, her father tells her that he has followed her musical career. "Have you really been unhappy your entire life? Am I the reason why?" her father asks in the letter. Her father goes on to apologize for not understanding Zoe's choices. "I hope one day I can love you for who you are now as much as I loved Freddie," he says.
