Kendall awakens on the ship in the morning after her
romantic encounter with Zach.

Babe awakens and finds JR has fallen
asleep on the couch near the bed with a bottle of alcohol in his hand. She tries to awaken him but he is out like a
light. Krystal comes into the room and
Babe tells her mother that he is killing himself. What can she do? Krystal tells her daughter that maybe
somebody should kill him first.

Downstairs, Brooke comes in and tells Adam
he’s really gone too far. He has no
consideration for JR or Tad or Jamie in regard to the Dixie
situation. Adam tells her the best thing
for everybody is for Dixie to split town. She tells him she is there for Tad and JR and
she’s not going to listen to anything he says.

Ryan takes Dixie
back to her room. She thanks him for
helping her escape having Greg arrest her. He asks her what her secret is with
Greg. She hesitates to tell him. He tells her that maybe they can work
together and help one another. She can
tell him about her problem with Greg and he will tell her about his.

Kendall tells Zach that she had a “dream” about a gorgeous
guy with whom she had a great evening.
She notices that he is already dressed and ready to leave. He tells her he has business to attend
to. No rest for the wicked. She asks him to whisper to her what his plans
are for the day. He tells her if he
whispered to her, it would no longer be a secret. She reminds him that she told him all of her
secrets last night. He tells her that a
while ago, the two of them planned on getting married then it stopped so his
secret plan is to get it started again.
Dixie tells Ryan that the truth is very personal and it
has to stay that way. He tells her
ok. He will tell her his own deal with
Madden and he expects nothing in return.
He tells her that Kendall is pregnant
with his child. Madden made that happen
but for some reason, that was not good enough for him. He now wants to get Kendall to put their
child up for adoption without any consideration or thought for what he wants
and now Kendall is gone. He’s afraid if he does not find her before
she gives birth, he will never get to see his son or
raise him or know anything about him. Dixie assures Ryan that it’s entirely possible that his
son will be fine. He might even find
him. Ryan tells Dixie that even if he
were to do that, he knows that Greg Madden has a long history of ruining many
women’s’ lives and doing some dastardly deeds.
He informs her that he is attempting to find out some things about
Greg. He and Zach are investigating him
and he hopes to have some evidence that will put Greg away. He tells Dixie
that maybe she will be the proof that he needs to put Greg away.
Kendall tells Zach that as it turns out, she was in love
with both him and the baby all along. He
then tells her that’s great and gets up to leave. She tells him she wants to know what he is
planning and he better not answer her question with a question. He then asks her to marry him. He tells her that he wants the three of them
to be a family. He realizes that Ryan
will always be the kids’ father but he wants to marry her and have both her and
Spike in his life.
Krystal tells Babe that she disagrees with
everybody’s wishes to run Dixie out of town
and prevent her from being in JR’s life.
She is his mother. She carried
him and gave birth to him. And Krystal
tells Babe that maybe she needs to drop JR if he doesn’t get it together and
not blame Dixie for everything. Babe tells her mother that she is not going
to abandon her husband when he is going through such hard times. Krystal tells her that she’s going to need
some back up. JR wakes up and is able to
overhear their conversation. He hears
Babe telling her mother that JR is a mess and Little A does not deserve
this. She needs to take drastic action
if need be. It sounds to him, like she
is secretly planning on dropping him just like Janet warned him she would.
Brooke tells Adam she remembers that he
ruined Dixie’s life and he ruined his son
along with her. He tells her that that
is propaganda. Now that Dixie is back, everybody finally gets to see her for what
she really is. Brooke tells him he is
gloating. She thinks that he believes
that he has JR right where he wants him.
He calls that love. He thinks
it’s really cool that JR no longer loves his mother. She asks him if maybe he can think more about
his son’s well being than about his own PR.
Krystal comes down and tells Adam that his son is in pain and needs his
help. She also informs him that she and
Babe have an idea.
Upstairs, Babe finds JR and notices he’s
up. She has no clue what part of her
conversation with Krystal he overheard or what he thinks that she’s about to
do. He has no clue that she has been telling
her mother that she is committed to her husband no matter what anybody says.
Ryan tells Dixie
that he knows she has a major issue with Madden if it was worth drugging him
and risking going to prison. He tells
her that she can single-handedly bring down Madden. She holds the key to enabling him to get his
son back. She tells him she would like
to help him get his son back but she urges him not to tell Tad or JR what her
secret is.

JR comes downstairs to see Adam, Krystal,
Babe, Tad, Jamie and Brooke. He
remembers that it’s his birthday and they may have forgotten. Babe tells him that her family has something
to say to him. Tad comes forward and
tells him they love him but there is no way they are going to stand by and let this
mess with Dixie drive him to drink. He tells JR the drinking has to stop. Brooke tells him she realizes it’s not easy
for him to deal with his mother coming back like this. Tad tells him that the booze is no way to
deal with it. He asks them why it’s so
important. Babe tells him it is and
reminds him what happened to Amanda when he drove drunk. Krystal reminds him that he tied her up and
pulled a gun on her when he was drinking.
He tells them all he appreciates their concern and thanks them for
coming and he’s ready to walk out. Jamie
asks JR if he thinks they are just going to go away that easily. He reminds JR that he knows that not all
people can handle booze. JR could not
handle drugs when he was a teenager. He
cannot handle drinking now. JR tells
Jamie he must be so sure of himself now that he’s pre-med and can tell people
what to do with their lives. He tells
them that he’s not all that concerned as long as he has a job. Adam tells his son he might not for long if
he keeps this up. He tells JR that
nobody really knows how or why Dixie stayed
away and suddenly decided to come back but it has happened. They are all dealing with it. He tells JR that he will not abandon
him. He will let him decide how he wants
to deal with his mother. He will support
whatever choice JR makes. He just
doesn’t want to lose him. JR asks them
why they can’t just all move on and accept that Dixie is back and get over it.
Ryan attempts to get the secret out of Dixie. She tells
him she wishes she could tell him but she cannot and he should not keep pushing
her. He tells her that he and Kendall
and Zach need to know the truth about Greg Madden.
Kendall tells Zach that she could kick herself and give
into her fears but she is not doing that.
She is peaceful and surrounded from the inside out with love and he did
that for her. She tells him that she is
going to be a mother and finally believes she knows how to be one. He tells her she will be a gorgeous
mother. She tells him he cannot just
stand there. He must say something. He asks her what. She tells him he must marry her. He must make her Kendall Hart, wife and
mother. She does not want to wait. He kisses her.
She asks him if he is serious that they
can get married right there and then. He
tells her yes. She asks why, in that
case, he’s just standing there on deck.
He tells her that he’s waiting for his bride. He leaves and she says hello to her baby and
tells him this is a big day for them.
She tells him she has a big favor to ask. She asks him if he can walk her down the
aisle.

Dixie tells Ryan she understands his need to get the
truth about Madden but she’s really worried about all the pain it will cause
her family. She realizes that it will be
caused by her. He tells her no. It will be Greg’s fault. He tells her that he and Zach and Tad can
help her. She tells him that she does
not ever want Tad to find out. He will
hate and despise her for this. He tells
her that Tad is the master at investigation but he need not let him know. Dixie gets a
call from Babe informing her that her son has gotten drunk and passed out for
breakfast. She needs to do something to
get her son out of a bottle. She does
not care what Dixie does. She tells Dixie
that she did this and if they lose JR, it will all be her fault. Dixie then
tells Ryan she needs to go. Her son
needs her.
Krystal tells JR that even if he keeps his
job, he can lose his wife and son. Booze
will ruin his life. He then asks Babe if
it’s true that he will lose his son. She
tells him he better not. He then asks if
it’s up to him. She tells him he can bet
it is. He must promise her no more
waking up to see him passed out with a bottle of scotch in his hand. Hearing that, he “jokes” saying ok, no more
scotch. What about vodka or tequila or
beer? Jamie then reminds JR that he is
not the only one whom Dixie has hurt.

On the ship, a minister enters and is
ready to perform Kendall and Zach’s wedding
ceremony. He then leaves them
alone. She tells Zach that there is so
much she wants to tell him. She loves
him. He knows her. He knew her heart when she was too scared to
face her feelings and what she saw in him was not dark or scary. It was love.
He did that for her and so she pledges her heart for him. He tells her it will take a life time to know
that heart. He wants to have that
lifetime. He wants to know her; strong
and loving and more forgiving than he deserves.
She tells him there is nothing unforgivable from now on. She vows to forgive him anyway. He tells her he promises never to lie to her
again. She tells him if things go bad,
she will find her way back to him. She
asks him if he will share with her and talk to her. She asks him if they will have long, deep and
soulful talks that go on into the night.
She tells him all she needs is him and his love. She will give him all her love with no fear
and love this child. He tells her he
will love her as she grows and changes but she need not change too much because
she is perfect. He then tells her he
realized that loving her is his vow to her.
The minister comes back and tells them this seems like a fine time for
the ring. They laugh and admit that
there is no ring. He notices she does
not have her engagement ring. She admits
she took it off after the ball but she held onto it. She asks him if he’d like to put it back on
her finger. He tells her it would be his
honor. The minister tells them he now
pronounces them husband and wife.

Adam tells his son that drinking is risky
and it will ruin him. Tad tells JR if he
does not want to stand in a room talking about his feelings that is ok. He admits to JR that he is also
devastated. If he thought getting drunk
would solve what has happened to him, he would be passed out on the bathroom
floor throwing up from booze every night but he knows that won’t make it go
away. Dixie
ruined all of them. He reminds JR that
before Dixie decided to come back, JR decided
to marry a wonderful woman. He is
blessed to have a wonderful son. He
realizes that some days are better than others and sometimes it seems like it’s
beyond what you can take but he says he will be damned if Dixie or booze or
anything is going to take JR away from them.
JR reminds Tad that he (Tad) was the best thing that ever happened to Dixie and she threw him away. Tad tells JR he is upset but has to deal with
it. Babe urges JR to listen to what they
are saying. He then tells them he has a
stack of papers piling up and has to go.
Babe’s eyes well up with tears but JR does not seem to care. He gets up to leave. As soon as he opens the door, he sees Dixie.
Kendall and Zach talk about how she has
him and now she has Spike. She tells him
she didn’t realize that she would not be able to say good-bye to him. How could she when she has never even said
hello? He tells her that they need to
get home. She tells him that home sounds
perfect and with him she can face anything.
She reminds him that he must be there with her in the delivery room so
he must take her hand and tell her to breathe.
He does that but she tells him that he’s saying it like he wants to have
his way with her. They can do that later
but he needs to encourage her to crank out that kid. He then tells her to breathe and it looks
like they are ready for their big commitment together.

Dixie says hello to JR.
He tells her goodbye works better for him. She was not invited. She tells him actually she was. She looks into the room. He then asks whose “brain flash” this
was. Babe admits that it was hers’. She called Dixie
and demanded she get down there for her son.
He angrily tells her that was a bad idea. She tells him he is broken and needs his
mother. He tells her he knows she does
not love him. Babe looks at Dixie and
tells JR that she needs to know why Dixie did
it. She asks Dixie
what made her stay away from her son and JR needs to know the answer also. For Dixie’s sake, Babe tells her she hopes
she (Dixie) is ready to face the truth also.
