Party Disruptions!

Casey takes Ameera for ice cream in Old Town. Seeing that she is distracted, he asks if she wants to talk about anything. She says she knows her marriage isn't real but that her feelings for Noah are confusing for her. "It makes me sad to be excluded from a part of Noah's life," she says. Casey advises her to be honest with Noah about how she feels but she doesn't think he'll understand. Casey takes her back to the cottage. As they arrive Ameera sees the INS agent and wonders what to do. Casey tells her to go in through the bedroom window. She sees Luke and he helps her inside just before the INS agent checks the bedroom! Casey and Luke, pretending to be boyfriends, go to the front door. They invite Noah and Ameera to dinner but Noah says they want some time alone. Casey and Luke say they understand and Luke kisses Casey's cheek. They leave. Noah turns back to the agent. He says he'll be back for another visit soon and leaves. Noah asks Ameera how she got into the room; she says she doesn't want to lie any more. Luke and Casey return, saying this isn't going as planned. Luke and Noah go outside. Luke says they need to cool things off for a while; he hugs Noah but Noah pulls away, saying the agent could still be watching. Hurt, Luke says he can't keep doing this and leaves. Noah returns inside as Casey tells Ameera to be honest with her husband. Casey leaves. Noah asks Ameera what Casey meant. She says she is ashamed of all the lying they have been doing. Noah says it is only for a little while. When he sees how tired she is, he tells her to go to bed. She asks where he'll sleep and he suggests that they sleep together for the night because of the agent. Ameera smiles when he goes to get his bags.

Leaving Is The Hardest Part...

At the farm, Noah says he and Ameera should attend as a couple. Luke answers the door when Casey arrives. Luke says Noah's plan is great because he'll be attending with his date - Casey! Casey is not happy with that thought. Ameera comes in and asks if he is coming to the party with them and he agrees to go. Luke pulls him out to the truck as Ameera giggles.

Alison finds Chris at the hospital and tries to bully him into going to Will and Gwen's with her. He says he has too much work but finally gives in. They arrive at the cottage as Aaron does. Will isn't thrilled but Chris steps up and apologizes for his part in the adoption hearings. All is forgiven. Aaron takes Alison aside and asks what is going on with Chris; Allie says they are just friends. Aaron is jealous. Chris tells Alison that he doesn't want to push his luck with Will so he is leaving. He invites her to come along with him and she accepts. Aaron watches them, very unhappy. Casey, Luke, Noah and Ameera arrive. Luke explains that Ameera is Noah's wife-in-name-only; Luke jokes that Casey is now his "boyfriend". Casey objects to that description. Paul takes Will aside and says he wants to be a better brother. They hug. Just then Sofie arrives. She tearily says her goodbyes to Hallie. When Aaron tries to make her stay, though, Sofie says she wants to be alone and hurries out. Paul follows. On the porch she tells him about Barbara's surgery. They leave together. Will takes Gwen into the bedroom and she says she finally realizes why they need to move - because Sofie can't move on with them back in town. Noah and Luke are lamenting their problems with the INS. Gwen has a great idea - Noah and Ameera should move into the cottage, that way they'll have more freedom because Luke and his "boyfriend" could visit any time. "Uuh, I'm not in this for a long-term relationship," Casey jokes. Luke doesn't like the idea either, but Noah and Ameera convince them it is a great plan. Will takes a picture of the "happy couples". When everyone is gone, Will and Gwen toast to their new life. He kisses her.

Nobody Wants Second Best!

In Old Town, Luke tells Noah that they are in the clear as far as the INS is concerned so they can take up where they left off. Noah pulls away from him, throwing Luke for a moment. He says he won't go back into the closet; Noah apologizes but makes the excuse that they have to be careful about the INS. Ameera apologizes for putting them both in jeopardy. They agree to meet for coffee later. Later, Ameera runs into Casey outside Java. They go inside for a drink and as they are talking, Casey comments about his incarceration. Ameera is surprised he was locked up and takes his hand as he tells her about the gambling and his time in prison. Just then the INS investigator walks in! He asks what she is doing with Casey and tells her about visiting the farm. Both Ameera and Casey say they are just friends, but the investigator doesn't believe them. He says her Visa is now in jeopardy! Just then Noah and Luke arrive; Luke watches uncomfortably as Noah puts his arms around Ameera. He thanks Casey for hanging out with Ameera. The INS investigator still has questions about Casey until Luke says Casey is his boyfriend! That seems to appease the investigator and he leaves. Casey angrily asks Luke why he said that. Luke jokingly says it doesn't matter that it was just for show but Casey is obviously upset. Noah says they may have come up with the perfect solution: Luke and Casey can pretend to date so that Ameera always has someone with her! Casey doesn't like that idea at all and neither does Ameera. She says she doesn't want to live a lie. Noah and Luke know this is their only choice. "You're my husband and I'll do what you want," she says sadly. Still upset, Casey leaves. The kids return to the farm. Emma tells them about the INS visit. She says she isn't good at lying but that she'll try to help them in any way she can. They all apologize to her. She sends Luke and Noah out to the barn to help the roofer. On the porch, Noah thanks Luke for going along with the Casey plan. Luke says it was no big deal but says they need to be careful around Ameera because she obviously doesn't realize this will always be an in-name-only marriage. Noah hugs him and says they belong together.

An Innocent Boy!

Parker takes the stand and tells the judge about Sam firing bands to make himself indispensable to Carly. As Parker talks about the feelings he had on the night of the shooting, Ameera becomes very uncomfortable. Parker continues talking and tells the judge about Sam hurting Carly. Ameera can't take it and leaves. Noah follows just as Parker admits he did shoot Sam. Tom asks how many times Parker shot the gun and Parker swears he only shot once.

Noah says Parker's testimony brought up bad memories for Ameera. Noah asks how Luke is and he says as long as he knows they have a future, he will be fine. Lily, meanwhile, is worried that Carly and Jack won't get there in time. In the hall, Meg thanks Paul for encouraging Parker at the farm. Brad sends Jack a text message, asking him to hurry. Just then the judge returns to the courtroom. The judge says Parker's actions were premeditated and that because there is no evidence of another shooter, he has to find Parker guilty!

In the car, Jack flashes his badge and tells the officer they are trying to get Ruby back as a witness in a murder case. He offers to escort them to the courthouse! Jack and Carly walk into the courtroom with Ruby just as the judge finds Parker guilty. The prosecutor tells the judge to ignore them but the judge allows for a final witness and Ruby takes the stand. Tom asks Ruby about Kit and Ruby tells the court about Kit befriending her on the street. The prosecutor objects but the judge overrules her. Ruby tells them that Kit returned to Metro, saw Sam with Carly and then saw Parker shoot. "And then Kit finished Sam off," she says. The prosecutor questions Ruby, who says she only wants to save Parker's life. Ruby gives the judge Kit's identification, which was left in the pocket of the coat she gave Ruby. Along with identification is proof of another of Kit's aliases and proof that Kit was in Oakdale the night of the shooting. The judge releases Ruby from the stand. The judge reverses his guilty verdict and releases Parker, but says he will still have to be punished for shooting Sam. The courtroom is ecstatic.
