Ryan gets disturbing news; Aidan demands answers from Annie. Greenlee and Zach hash things out. Kendall makes Spike a promise.

Kendall catches Greenlee watching her through the NICU window. In her mind, Kendall screams at the woman to leave but she says nothing out loud. Next, Kendall flashes back to Greenlee's miscarriage and then to their switching cars when Spike was hurt. Both memories mix. When Kendall looks out the window again, Greenlee is gone. Zach walks in and Kendall tells him about Greens' "visit", surprised that she didn't try to come in or even get close to the baby. Zach isn't sure what to think. Kendall asks him to meet them later at the carnival. He leaves. Kendall finishes up with Ian and heads for the carnival to meet Rachel and the kids. Rachel takes Emma to a few rides while Kendall stays with Spike, watching the lights and listening to the carnival music, she tells him that Greenlee is responsible for everything wrong in their lives. Fireworks begin to go off, mesmerizing Spike and reminding Kendall of her past with Greens. She keeps talking to Spike, telling him the good and the bad about Greenlee. "I know what needs to be done," she says and asks Spike for forgiveness for what she is going to do next! Kendall calls, telling him about their fun evening. She tells Zach she has a stop to make and then she'll be home; he says he'll meet her there after a quick stop at Cambias.

A tough guy drags Greenlee away from Kendall's window. She is arguing with him when Zach walks up. She wonders if the guy was hired by Ryan or Zach. "If that was one of my men, you wouldn't be here anymore," he says and asks why Greenlee keeps hanging around his family. Greenlee insists she just wants to apologize to Kendall but Zach doesn't want to hear that. He tells her that the best thing she can do for Kendall is to leave town! Greenlee brings up the bad things Zach did, asking why she should leave town when he stuck around after ruining her life. Greenlee tells Zach that she is going to take responsibility for the things she did and she is going to make things right - whether he wants her to or not! Greens walks away.

Ryan arrives at the prison in Illinois to speak with the warden. He asks to see Ritchie. Instead, the warden invites the prison psychiatrist, Dr. Chambers, in to speak with Ryan. The warden leaves. Dr. Chambers tells Ryan that Ritchie has been released from the prison! Ryan can't believe it, especially since Annie called and was told that he was still an inmate. The doctor says it was a clerical error but Ryan doesn't believe him. He calls Ritchie a threat but Dr. Chambers says Ritchie isn't a threat and should never have been incarcerated in the first place! The doctor begins running down his list of accomplishments but Ryan could care less about what the good doctor has done. Ryan gets angry when Dr. Chambers admits that he helped Ritchie get a lawyer and that was how he got released early. He believes that Ritchie was an innocent victim - of Annie's! The doctor begins to turn all of Annie's fears around, reminding Ryan that he never heard one phone call! Ryan backs up Annie but the doctor isn't interested and continues to defend Ritchie. Ryan demands that the doctor hand over Ritchie's address but the doctor refuses. The doc tells Ryan to get his hands off of him! "Richard is a good man. Leave him alone," the doctor says. The warden comes back in, telling both men to stop. He backs up the doctor! Ryan tells them he'll take care of Ritchie, himself, since no one else will help him!

Aidan escorts Annie home, both are surprised that no one else is home yet. He asks Annie a few questions about the attacker but Annie clams up. She opens her purse and finds the locket wrapped in a handkerchief inside! Aidan wonders how the locket got there but Annie has no idea. He asks her to trust him with the full truth but she won't. She tries to go upstairs but Aidan won't let her go - he wants answers! Annie tries to convince Aidan that the locket was just a prank that someone was playing on her but he doesn’t believe her. He keeps pushing but it only makes Annie more unnerved. Aidan backs off and tries to figure things out from the beginning - he asks if the purse was ever out of her sight but Annie is positive that she has had the purse with her the entire day. Annie becomes confused when Aidan keeps questioning her, then she realizes what he is doing. "You think I hit you with the rock!" she says. She gets mad and tries to call Ryan but Aidan convinces her to leave Ryan alone and just talk to him. Aidan swears that he'll find whoever is behind the attacks. "He did it," she says. Aidan returns a couple of minutes later but he didn't find anything. Rachel arrives back with the kids and Aidan goes outside to help her. Annie watches them through the door, remembering Ritchie's threats.
