At Kendall and Zach’s house, Erica finds Ryan there. The kids are at the park with their nanny. She asks him how he and Zach can let Kendall throw her life away.

He tells the judge he wants him to understand why Kendall went to the mansion that night. Scott takes the stand and tells the courtroom that Stuart was an extremely forgiving person and he would want his murderer forgiven. On the stand, Adam tells the court that he believes in an eye for an eye but that Stuart didn’t share that belief. He says he wants to carry out Stuart’s wishes. Marion abruptly walks into the courtroom and yells loudly that Stuart might have forgiven his killer, but she has not!

Madison sees Frankie at the hospital and asks about the baby. He tells her it didn’t’ work out. Madison leaves and Angie walks over to Frankie and asks why Madison is still hanging around.

Taking the stand, Marion cries that her husband is gone and it’s because of Kendall. She says she doesn’t care if Stuart wasn’t the intended victim. Liza rises and goes to the stand.

He comes on to her, he kisses her, and she kisses back.
Outside the courtroom, Zach and Liza chat, Scott and Marissa sit together and Marion tells Adam that when she looks at him, she doesn’t see Stuart’s twin. She sees nothing. He acknowledges that she’s hurting. She angrily tells him she’s moving out of the Gatehouse. A court official announces that they are advised to return to the courtroom.
Madison runs into Randi at the hospital who tells her that she is the reason she lost her baby. Madison disagrees and says it was because of her guilty conscience. Angie overhears them.
