All My Children - DAILY UPDATES

Erica calls Ryan at the Yacht Club to tell him she saw Scott. Ryan is confident that soon Adam will have no reason to protect Annie and her baby - he'll confess. Zach appears and tells Ryan that whatever he's going to do, he should do it soon because Kendall's coming home! They bicker about the wisdom of such a risky move, but Zach says the risky thing is to have her out there with Aidan - they're out of time! Ryan insists that they're very close, and advises Zach not to mess things up!

Kat has taken Kendall to an abandoned bar. She tells her about how great the place could be if it were reopened. She then confesses that she got Kendall out of the motel because 'Tom' is planning a surprise for her. Kat tells Kendall how lucky she is to have 'Tom', and Kendall makes it clear she has a husband. Kat says sometimes these things are out of your hands! After they notice a rat, Kat admits the place might not be a good buy after all. She apologizes if she said too much about 'Tom', saying she's just a romantic. Kendall imagines sitting with Zach at one of the tables.

Aidan is getting wine ready in the motel when he hears a car pull up. Tad comes in and spots the bottle of wine - he says, "No thanks." Tad informs Aidan that Zach wants Kendall home. Aidan asks if Adam confessed. Tad says he hasn't, but Zach is worried about Kendall relying on Aidan for everything. Aidan says Zach is a loose cannon - if he wants to keep Kendall safe, he'll back off. Tad wants to see Kendall, but Aidan says she's not there, and Tad shouldn't wait. Tad reminds Aidan that he's only Kendall's friend. Aidan says she might want to run back with Tad if she sees him - the emotions of Zach and Kendall are what will get her caught!

Kendall returns to the motel where Aidan has grilled chicken and wine for her. She tells him that after everything he said about being worried that they'll sleep together, she's surprised he'd plan a romantic dinner. Aidan claims it's an apology for making her uncomfortable. He says it wasn't really her who stirred up the feelings - it was remembering Greenlee. He muses that when he's in love he doesn't do anything halfway! They drink the wine, and Kendall talks to him about her jealousy of Liza. He admits that when Greenlee let another man take her away, he never really got over it! They talk about Fusion, and then Greenlee's death. Aidan says they can only remember how great she was, and love her forever. They embrace. Kendall jokes about getting a tattoo. Aidan says she's great the way she is. She returns the sentiment, then ducks out of the room to get more wine. Kat sticks her head in and notes that everything seems to be going well. Aidan says he needs her help.

JR arrives at the Chandler Mansion ranting about Adam calling him over to discuss Little A. Adam says it was the only way to get him over there. He shows JR the video footage of Annie and Scott, saying JR was right about them all along. JR advises Adam to throw them out. Adam wants to reconcile, but JR says he just doesn't want to be alone with his conscience! Adam asks, "Doesn't family mean anything to you?" JR says his family does - Marissa and Little Adam. Adam pleads with him, but JR won't be his buffer.

JR heads to the Yacht Club, and comes upon Zach telling Ryan he'd choke a confession out of Adam if necessary. JR says he doesn't think that will be required, telling them that they're really close. JR tells them about the footage Adam saw of Annie and Scott. JR walks away, and Zach tells Ryan this is just another shot in the dark! Ryan says they all need to work together. Zach keeps saying they're out of time. He gives Ryan two hours - or he'll get a confession his way!

Annie is at the station bailing Scott out - he was picked up for being drunk and disorderly. Annie tells him about Adam setting them up. Scott panics - they kissed! Annie assures him that Adam didn't watch it. She says they haven't done anything wrong - in fact, they've protected Adam. Annie says they've nearly got everything they wanted. Scott scoffs that she has, but he needs to go back to Chicago! Annie tells him not to be selfish - Adam needs him!

Annie and Scott arrive at the Chandler Mansion, where Adam is sitting in front of the fireplace. He notes that they didn't come home last night. Annie says that she had to bail Scott out. Adam says he saw what happened on the laptop, and begins speaking cryptically. Annie wants to see what Adam saw on the laptop. She presses a key and the footage of her and Scott kissing appears. Annie accuses Adam of lying about destroying it. Adam smirks. Scott apologizes to Adam, who tells him he's not sorry yet. Annie says that they also talk about protecting him on the video! Adam becomes furious as Annie confesses to not loving him at first, and to faking the pregnancy at first. He informs her that she never loved him, and that the baby she is now carrying probably isn't his! Scott insists it can't be his child. Annie says in a few months they'll take a paternity test. Adam says he can't stand to look at her now! Adam tells Scott that she's using him too. He tells them both to be gone from his home by the time he gets back. He leaves.

After Adam leaves the house, Annie tells Scott that this is her home, and her family, and she's going to fight for it. Scott smirks, saying she's spun the truth so many ways that when she actually says something honest it comes out like the granddaddy of all lies! Annie protests, but Scott says it's over - they've lost! He tells her she's got nothing - and the sad part is that nobody cares! Scott leaves, and Annie cries. She looks up at the video camera in the wall and leaves Adam a final message, admitting she lied about being pregnant, and the murder - but she didn't lie about loving him or trying to protect him. She says she thought their child and marriage would allow him to forgive himself. Annie says she'll tell the baby that what they had was real. Suddenly, she doubles over in pain, and falls to the floor holding her abdomen!

Erica opens her door to Adam, who says it's time for Kendall to come home! He admits that she should never have had to leave in the first place - he killed his brother. Erica angrily asks why he came to her - does he expect gratitude? Adam hangs his head, saying he should have come forward sooner. Erica sneers at him always saying how much family matters - but he didn't care about hers, or Kendall's! Erica says Adam put Annie above everything else. Adam says he couldn't even convince himself that he'd been part of anything so monstrous - and Annie played on that. He says he could see for himself that Annie and Scott had an affair, and the baby was his one shot at redemption - the biggest lie of all. Erica moves to embrace him, but Adam moves to leave, saying there is nothing left for him now, except to admit that he killed his brother. Ryan appears and says that's exactly what he's going to do.

Tad arrives at Zach's house and tells him he couldn't bring Kendall back - someone tailed him. He says he saw Kendall but Aidan thought it better that he didn't talk to her. Zach demands to know what's going on out there - what is Aidan doing with his wife? Tad says, "It's not Aidan."
