The verdict is in and everyone gathers in the court room. Epiphany stands and states that the jury has found Johnny Zacchara not guilty. As Johnny and Claudia hug in relief, and Scott raises demands there's been a mistake, Epiphany and Edward shake hands as if to say, "We've done the right thing."
When Johnny walks out of the court room a free man, Anthony asks him how he feels. Johnny thanks him for standing by him the whole time and promises not to forget it. Meanwhile, Claudia saunters up to Ric and says that they are a good team. Ric shakes her hand and reminds her that he told her so.
At the police station, Johnny thanks his sister for what she said on the stand. Talk turns to when they were kids and how they trashed Trevor’s car. They laugh and joke, but then Ric comes in and puts a damper on their positive mood. He says Claudia was very convincing and asks how much of the story was true, pointing out the best lies usually have some truth to them.
Alone in the interrogation room, Claudia comes on to Ric. Johnny returns and interrupts them. Ric hands Johnny the phone, which has Lulu on the other end. She apologizes for making a mess of things, but Johnny says all that matters is that she’s okay.
Down at the court house, Claudia's very first statement on the stand is that she saw her brother kill Logan Hayes. When Rick asks her why she didn't say that when she testified earlier, she said that nobody asked. Claudia says that she was having a sexual affair with Logan while he was her father's 'chair pusher' to get inside access to her family business. She says that Logan was obsessed with Lulu and it 'creeped her out' when he used to call her by Lulu's name during sex. Finally, Lulu walked in on them one time and Logan was furious at her for setting him up. She reports that Logan didn't even seem to care that Lulu was in love with her brother and he ended up attacking Johnny at the Metro Court. She says that Logan went on to make one last attempt at Lulu's workplace to beg her to come back to him. She says that later he showed up at her penthouse and tried to kill her. (Over at the defense table, Anthony looks down-right entertained.) She says that he axed through her door and she grabbed a kitchen knife and tried to back him off. She gets increasingly upset as she relives their struggle and Ric gives her a tissue. She says that Logan unbuckled his pants and was going to rape her but Johnny came in. She says that Johnny picked up the knife and Logan ran right into it. The jury looks shaken, the defense, hopeful, and Scotty is clearly disgusted by her testimony. She ties up a few loose ends by saying that she insisted that they cover it all up. Ric provides the list of people she called to replace the door and the carpet to prove it. Scott gets a chance to redirect and he jumps at the chance. He calls her story a 'cooked up fairy tale' and tells the judge that he is done with the liar. Ric tries to enter Logan's military record that proves he stabbed a fellow soldier over a girl. Scott objects and calls Logan a victim, but Ric says that there are times when a victim has it coming.
Claudia is weeping when Johnny meets her in the interrogation room. He asks if she's okay and says that nobody has ever fought so hard for him in his life and that he loves her. Claudia says that he just might be the only person she can ever love.
Lulu has just taken the stand at the court house and Tracy stands up and asks since when the Special Prosecutor is allowed to troll the psych ward? From the jury box, Edward stands up and yells at Tracy that her delinquent husband is the reason for this debacle in the first place and the judge orders them all to sit down. Ric addresses the court and says that his client is on death row and the testimony of a mental patient isn't reliable. Scott argues and Lulu's testimony is allowed. She is sworn in and Scott goes on attack. When Scott asks her if she saw Logan on the night he was murdered, Johnny stands up and tells her not to say another word. The judge orders him to sit down, and then Scott continues. She gets confused by his questions and finally blurts out that Johnny didn't kill Logan Hayes, she did.
Across town, just as Ric is starting to feel pretty good about the testimony that has been heard so far, Scott announces that he has a new witness to call, Lesley Lulu Spencer.
Johnny has asked to speak to Nikolas, but Lucky shows up in the interrogation room instead. He is full of attitude and reports that Nikolas is in lockup for punching Baldwin and that his family is falling apart because of him. He grabs Johnny by the shirt collar, and Johnny says, "You have no idea what I've done for your sister." He reminds Lucky that he could've crossed the border, but he took her to Shadybrook for help. Lucky is furious with him, but Johnny says that the only person who can help Lulu now is Nikolas, so get him!
Nikolas goes into the interrogation room to see Johnny. Johnny begs him to get Lulu out of the country before she is called to testify. Nikolas thinks for a minute and finally understands. He asks Johnny if Lulu killed Logan? Johnny explains exactly how it happened and admits that they should've just called 911. He reminds Nikolas that this is a death penalty case and if Lulu takes the stand she'll confess. Nik points out that if Lulu escapes Scott will put him away for good. Johnny understands completely and says he only cares about Lulu.
