Dixie is at Greg's office demanding to know where his daughter is. She says he has no leverage now since her family knows she's alive. Greg asks how they took the news. He asks if she told them everything. She is silent. He tells her that's a smart move because some things are better left private.

JR tells her she beat him to it. Babe says she talked to Janet to ask her to back off. JR thinks she was just trying to cover her tracks. Babe tells him this is about his mother leaving him. He thinks because Dixie left him she will too. JR says he's not a fool and he won't be played. Babe says she's not the one who deserted him. She says she would never leave him the way Dixie left him.

Ryan tells Jonathan that while he thinks he's helping Lily, he's making things worse by making her choose between him and her dad. Ryan says he's pushing a relationship that Lily is not ready for. If he loves Lily he needs to leave her. This has to end now, he says.

Ryan tells Zach that Ryan hurt her when he rode off the cliff and doesn't deserve to be happy. She says she loved Ryan. It was because of her grief that she offered to carry Ryan's baby. She says she wanted to keep a part of him alive. Then it was a disaster when he came back. He destroyed her life. She says Ryan wants to take the baby far away from her. She won't let him leave her again. She stops herself and asks what she's doing. She says she's crazy. She's acting like a vindictive bitch that keeps making Ryan pay for it. She says she's the one to blame.&# 9;

JR tells Babe that it doesn't matter why Dixie stayed away. He doesn't give a damn about her. Babe says she knows that's not true. She knows he loves her and it's killing him that she stayed away. As JR starts to leave, Babe tells him he doesn't have to do this alone. She says now that she has him back she won't lose him again. JR asks if her mother ever walked away from her. He realizes that of course she hadn't. Babe says she hates seeing him like this. She says she can't make up for what Dixie did but she can apologize for all the times she let him down. She says she'll never cause any more suffering for him. JR walks out. Babe yells to him that she's willing to take a lie detector test or swallow a gallon of her father's truth serum. JR tells her it's cool. He just needs more time. He leaves.

David brings Dixie to his cabin. She asks to see the truth serum. David shows her the vial and says it's one of his most popular pharmaceuticals. David says with the right dose Madden will spill every secret. Dixie asks him what's in it for him. David says there are no strings. Dixie says he always wants something. David says there is something he wants – her forgiveness.

Reggie brings Lily out of her room and she asks Jonathan why he's there. Jonathan glumly tells her he loves her and wants her to be happy. She says she doesn't like the way that sounds. Something bad is coming. Jonathan says he thought he could make her happy but she needs more than he can give her. He can't take a chance of hurting her. Lily looks at her father and says she's ready to get on the train now. Erica tells Lily she'll miss her. She says if Lily sees her blow a kiss on "New Beginnings," it will be a kiss for her. Lily says she'll blow one back, even though she won't be on TV and Erica won't see her. Ryan tells her to have a safe trip. Lily says it's time for her to say goodbye to Jonathan.
