You Wouldn't Believe me.

Rafe and Buzz take Alan to Cedars. The doctor checks him out and he's fine though lucky to be alive. "If I told you what happened, you wouldn't believe me," Alan says. As he is put into a wheelchair, Rafe promises to look after him.

Rafe and Buzz bring Alan back to Company. He stares up at the roof and reaches out to it before sitting on the steps. "You're not going to sue me are you?" Buzz asks. Alan can't afford a lawyer, but if he could, he still wouldn't. He offers to help fix it up and starts lifting. Rafe steps in and tells the "old folks" to be careful before he steps in to help. They carry the piece of roof down.

Buzz and Rafe are cleaning up Company. Rafe thinks that his grandfather is acting weird and needs help. Buzz sits him down and they start talking about the scholarships again. Rafe recalls when one of his teachers had a heart attack in the middle of class and how one of the students saved his life. Buzz is impressed and puts that student at the top of the list.

I'm Glad That you Came to me.

At Company, Natalia drinks tea and looks at a picture of Gus. "Nicky, I need you here," she says. Meanwhile, Alan is on the phone with Beth and furious that she let Lizzie run off. Later, he gives Rafe the watch he once offered Gus. Rafe thinks that he should pawn it and pay his bills, but Alan thinks that he should have a piece of family history. Rafe thanks him and Alan suggests that he can get him an internship at Spaulding after he graduates. He asks him to spy on Bill for him. Natalia bursts in at this, telling her son to go back to his homework and dragging Alan out.

On the porch, Alan defends himself, suggesting that he is just offering Rafe structure and direction. She admits that she would like her son to know his father's family, but if he wants to reach out, he should take him to a baseball game. Alan wants to teach him the family business. Natalia doesn't want her son doing his dirty work. Alan insists that Gus would support this. She walks off to do the laundry, stopping by her son who flashes the watch. He tells her that he'll never be late now.

Daisy runs into Rafe on Main Street. She is surprised to see him with a cigarette and starts asking about his watch. Rafe asserts that Alan is really a good guy but no one gets him. They start talking about the Reva movie and their plans for summer. The entire conversation is admittedly awkward and she asks him if he'll sign her yearbook.

Alan runs into Olivia and he makes a joke about her coming back from the dead. He's played that trick himself a few times. She starts to ask him about bringing Rafe to the dark side. Alan wants to develop a relationship with the boy. Olivia suggests that he take him to the movies and leave his soul alone. "Do you think I'm going to take orders from you?" he smirks. She reminds him of how much they've been through; "Wouldn't it be nice if we learned a thing or two?" When Alan goes into Company, he starts talking to Mallet about Gus' money. Alan tells him he left it in a checking account and under his bed. They start to talk about Dinah; Alan still wants his home and company back. As Mallet walks to the door, Natalia walks in. Alan offers to buy her a soda. "Why?" she asks. He says that she was right and he will leave Rafe out of his fights. She thanks him for respecting her wishes. Later, Rafe goes to see Alan and tells him that he saw Dinah with Doris at Towers. Alan thanks him for the information and tells him he's a great help. Rafe wants to help and tells him that they can keep it secret from his mother. "I have to make my own decisions," Rafe says. "I couldn't agree more," Alan smiles. Meanwhile, Natalia goes to visit Olivia and thanks her for talking to Alan.

It's a fix!

Natalia walks out of the boarding house and finds her son with a picture. She assumes it's of Daisy but it's of the house Gus bought them. Rafe still wants the house back. As he trudges away, he makes a call. Meanwhile, Jeffrey takes Olivia to Cedars for a doctor's appointment. They joke about their brief marriage. She starts to pace. "I hate this," she rants. Jeffrey tells her to stay positive. "Shut up," she says. He leaves. As she continues to wait for the doctor, Rafe arrives and confronts her about the house. He can't understand why she is doing this to him and his mother. She tells him life isn't fair. She's just trying to feel something and she thought the house would make her feel something. He reminds her that she has kids. The kids can't understand, she explains. Rafe keeps repeating that she doesn't even live in the house. "I knew him longer than you!" she snaps. He thinks she's crazy. Natalia arrives and pulls him away, giving him some water and telling him to behave. "Stay away from that horrible woman," she orders. He skulks out and she sits down. Jeffrey returns and sees her drinking water. "You look like you could use something stronger," he comments. Her life is a mess: She's lost Gus and now she's losing her son. How is Jeffrey doing? Olivia was driving him crazy and drove him away, but now he's back. She offers to drive Olivia home for him. "I think we have to have a little chat," she says. He thanks her and leaves.

Harley runs into Jeffrey outside of Company. She tells him about her suspicions of a dirty cop and how worried she is that Mallet can't really handle looking into this. She suggests that they owe Gus this and walks away. Later, Rafe arrives in Jeffrey's office: He needs to talk to a lawyer. He asks him if Olivia can really take the house the way she has. Jeffery thinks Natalia's lucky to have him looking out for her. He's not doing it for her. Jeffery agrees to look into it.

Olivia finishes her checkup with her doctor. She thinks this treatment will be endless. Natalia arrives, announcing that she will be taking her home. Olivia smirks. "Mother-son tag team day?" she jokes. They walk to the parking lot. Natalia resists the desire to scream in her face. She drives her home to The Beacon. Olivia thinks Natalia has a personality disorder: One minute she wants to attack her, the next she is caring for her. She asks her to leave. Olivia goes to the house alone and sits on the lawn. Meanwhile, Natalia tracks down Rafe in the park. She tells him that, even if it feels like Olivia gets everything, it's not really true.
