Opal and Tad sit on the sofa watching a snowy, blank TV screen when a happy Jake and Amanda enter the room. Amanda warns Tad he only has until Friday to install the converter box that will allow them to watch TV. Opal wants them to install it right then because tomorrow is the big wedding when Hayley and Mateo tie the knot, but Amanda and Jake wave a marriage certificate which they hope will be theirs when Tad marries them. Later, Jake and Tad are at the computer where Tad becomes an ordained minister. When they finish that little exercise, Jake interrupts Amanda and Opal watching the Spanish soap and tells them they need to get the show on the road.

David, his counselor, Liza, the D.A., Henry North, and Jesse are all discussing David’s activities the night of the murder. Mr. North thinks it’s too convenient that Kendall pulls David into it when she’s being suspected of committing the crime herself. Jesse thinks Kendall was rushing into view when she stumbled. David followed her, picking up the gun Kendall dropped because she realized she couldn’t shoot Adam. David decided he would use it himself to end Adam’s life. However, David denies shooting Chandler but admits he hasn’t been completely honest. He didn’t have a clean shot at him, so he took the tunnel that goes directly under the parlor and out to the terrace where he could line up a good shot. But another shot went off, and he saw Kendall running away, but standing over Stuart’s dead body was Liza.

Liza assures the D.A. and Jesse that she just went to the mansion to get the letters she wrote to Colby, who never saw them because Adam kept them from her. They tell her to show them the letters. Then the D.A. requests that in addition to producing the letters, he wants her to provide a new statement. She is to confirm what she stated earlier – that Kendall was on the terrace with a gun the night of the murder.”

Ryan and Erica are talking at the hospital. He is going to take Spike to the penthouse for the night, and Erica thinks that’s a great idea. Erica tells Zach and Kendall. Erica meets Adam in the hallway of the hospital. Adam is there to see Annie, which surprises Erica. Later, Erica pulls Adam into a room and speaks with him about Annie and how she will hurt him.

Zach and Kendall are in Ian’s room, and Kendall suggests they close their eyes and imagine Ian’s birthday party and him healthy and strong. She can’t go beyond that because it’s not that time yet and Ian isn’t at home or healthy. She hopes she is there to see when he is at that place in his life, and Zach assures her she will be. Ian goes to the operating room. Now Zach asks Kendall to close her eyes and listen to the train Spike is driving. Somebody didn’t buy a ticket. She thanks him but can’t think of that right now. She brings up the case against her and wants to know if they still think she killed Stuart. Kendall thinks that because they got married so Zach couldn’t testify against her, the D.A. is bent on locking her up and proving her guilty. She pleads with Zach not to keep anything from her. Zach brings up the point that the D.A. is young and ambitious and if he could prove the daughter of Erica Kane guilty, it could translate into votes in the next election. Kendall thinks Zach isn’t 100% sure she didn’t kill Stuart, but he says there are two things he’s sure of: Ian will recover, and she didn’t kill Stuart. She thinks there is a little flicker in him that isn’t sure, and she feels she’s the only one who knows she didn’t commit the crime. Zach tells her to be strong for the boys.

Angie and Aidan talk, and Angie assures him that although Annie has an infection, she will be all right. She then tells Adam he could see her but not for long. J.R. and Aidan talk. J.R. isn’t happy that Adam is getting too involved with Annie, who could take advantage of Adam.

Adam questions Angie’s doctoring skills and then goes in to see Annie. He tells her that since she saved his life, he will make everything better for her. He goes back to the hallway, and J.R. tries to calm down because he is worked up over Annie. Erica walks up, and J.R. tells her that Adam is upset over Annie. Erica looks surprised. J.R. lets Erica know how much she did for Adam after Stuart’s death. He also says Adam won’t listen to a thing he says. Erica says one thing she knows “…is that anyone who hangs on to Annie Lavery winds up getting hurt, or worse.”

Ryan and Aidan meet, and Aidan asks about Ian’s condition. Then Ryan says he must go check on Annie. Aidan wants to know how he left Annie. Ryan figures out that she has left Aidan, who finally understands that Annie has been playing him, and says Annie is crazier than ever and needs to be locked up. Ryan needs to help make Adam see that. Ryan tells him, “You go from being her biggest fan to her enemy just like that.” Aidan says he isn’t her enemy, and Ryan tells him that he’s just upset that Annie doesn’t need him anymore.

Aidan goes in to see Annie, who is feverish and trying to say something about how she didn’t have a choice but to hurt him and asking,” Why is this happening to me? Why is this happening right now when I was so close?” Aidan doesn’t appear to understand what she is saying.

Opal brings Amanda a bouquet of flowers from the garden and helps the beautiful bride with her makeup. She says that she dreamed of her wedding with her mom and dad there and Tim waiting for her. She asks Opal what her parents would think if they knew how different from her dreams her wedding will be. Opal assures her that Janet and Trevor were there and that her dress or the size of the wedding doesn’t matter. She picked the right guy. Jake appears and overhears what is said. Opal leaves. Jake tells Amanda that Tad is taking this very seriously, and Amanda says she is taking it seriously, also.

Amanda adds, “I’ve never been known for thinking things through, but I would never marry you if I didn’t love you, if I didn’t know I want to be with you forever. And I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, watching sappy movies and eating beef nib-nibs, and laughing at your dorky jokes – and wondering how I ever got so lucky.” Jake replies, “You had me at nib-nibs.” Tad walks by and good-naturedly tells them to knock it off.

The ceremony begins with Tad getting too detailed for Jake, who wants him to “tighten it.” Tad lets him know he will do it the way it seems bests, and when he gets to the part: “If anybody objects to this marriage, speak now or forever hold his peace.” David enters with this line: “That would be me.”
