You Are Lost.

Vanessa falls asleep on Billy's shoulder while they sit in the corridor at Cedars. She wakes up and he tells her that they need to focus on their son coming out of the coma. Dinah calls to check in. She digs for details about the investigation. Her mother suggests that she find something productive to do, like volunteer work. After hanging up, a nurse walks by and tells the parents that Bill is awake. They're thrilled and run off. The nurse promptly calls the police.

It's not a Scam, it's a Marriage.

At Cedars, Billy and Vanessa wake up Lizzie while she sleeps beside Bill. They tell her she should go home and promise to call if there is a change. She tells them that the cops suspect Bill was behind the kidnapping. She assures them that she doesn't believe it. Frank arrives. Vanessa and Lizzie aren't happy to see him. Billy keeps everyone calm. Frank takes Billy and Vanessa away to be questioned while Lizzie returns to Bill's side and cries. Alan peers in and watches before ducking away.

Frank takes Vanessa and Billy to Company to talk. They aren't happy but Frank insists that the evidence against Bill is substantial. Vanessa defends her son but says that he felt guilty, though only because he couldn't protect Lizzie. Frank assumes there's more. Billy ends the questioning and they walk out.

At Cedars, Lizzie asks Frank if he's finished torturing Billy and Vanessa and asks him to go after the real kidnapper. She points out that the kidnapper's build was different than Bill's. He hopes she's right. When she walks away, she overhears Vanessa telling Billy that they may have to sue the cops for libel. She defends her son in spite of the evidence. Billy seems far less convinced that their son is innocent. He brings up the things that his son has done, especially to Lizzie. He wouldn't have been the first Lewis to be inches from everything he wanted before doing something stupid to screw it all up for himself. Lizzie finally interrupts them and tells them not to think these things. Billy says they are just trying to be honest. Lizzie doesn't care about the evidence; she has faith in Bill. Alan arrives. He tells Lizzie they need to head off to see the tape. They rush off.

Why are you so Hormonal?

Vanessa arrives at Marina's with a package. She drops it on the table and begins complaining that Alan has duck related decorations all over the mansion. They discuss Bill and Vanessa prompts her to open the gift she brought and explains it's from Dinah. Marina backs off and decides she should wait for Mallet. Vanessa pushes her to open it. She does, pulling out the gift, grimacing and reading the note. Laughing, Vanessa says that there was a time when she thought the box would have been ticking. She explains that Dinah has left town and she wouldn't be surprised if it was for good. Marina suggests a fresh start would be good for her. Vanessa leaves. Marina picks up the gift and, accidentally, smashes it.

Mallet sits with Vanessa in Company. He needs to track down Dinah to talk about the kidnapping. Vanessa doesn't know where her daughter is and tells Mallet to stop trying to rescue her. If he wants to help her, he needs to let her go.

Confession Isn't Good for the Soul.

At the mansion, Vanessa tells Billy that Maureen wants to visit Bill. She worries that it could be too much for her. He takes out an old picture of them that he dug up. They laugh and remember as they look at it. He tells her that their son was hitting the bottle hard before he had the accident. She worries about Dinah and says that she may need to do more than keep an eye on her.

Dinah goes home and is shocked when the family jumps out and shouts surprise. They want to thank her for everything she's done for Bill and are throwing her a party. Hilda brings out ice cream, Vanessa brings out champagne and Maureen tells Dinah that she's the best sister in the world. Dinah doesn't know what to say.

It Will Never be Goodbye.

Dinah walks into Cedars. She finds her mother watching over Bill and asks her to give them a moment alone. Pulling up a chair, she apologizes. She used to imagine what it would have been like if they had grown up together. She confesses that she wanted to bring him to his knees because he chose Lizzie over her. "I did this to you," she cries. Vanessa and Daisy interrupt. Dinah wants to leave. Vanessa wants to remember the nice times they've had. Dinah plods away.

I Could Have Done This Without You.

Dinah meets her mother and Billy at Towers. She thinks they need to put their heads together to figure out how to keep Bill from hurting himself. She tells them about Bill being taken down to the station. Billy runs off to find his son. Vanessa tells her daughter that she is proud of her. Frank suddenly calls with news. Dinah gets uncomfortable. Vanessa tells her that, no matter what happens, she can take comfort in the fact that she did her part.
