He reminds her that he came back from the dead to be with her. She remembers when he came back from the dead. She gives the play-by-play and reminds him that he said he was going to go take a shower and then slept on the sofa. She says he did that, and everything, to punish her. She tells her daughter to say god-bye to her father and tells Todd that he’ll never see his children again. Starr cries and tells Todd she loves him and Blair has to peel her away.

Antonio and Jessica make it back to the diner and are greeted by the pleased Rex and Carlotta. Carlotta says she couldn’t get a hold of Viki and hasn’t heard from Cristian but knows he’s safe. She starts in on Natalie but Antonio puts her in check by telling her she’ll have to learn to accept that Cristian loves Natalie.

She starts speaking in Spanish. Antonio tells R.J. that Keri can’t know yet because it’s too dangerous for her and the baby. He asks about why Antonio never said anything before Keri was in the hospital. R.J. explains that he didn’t even know who Liz was and R.J. demands he stop trying to make excuses. He storms out and Antonio admits to his mother that it’s true. Then Antonio goes after R.J. and drags him back in, handcuffs him to the table, and leaves to go tell Kerri himself.
Cristian and Natalie continue to enjoy each other’s company secluded in their hiding spot, the cabin. They look out at the snow and bask in their happiness. They cook popcorn and Cristian informs Natalie that he can cook, while she admits that she can’t. He offers to teach her how to cook when they get back.

Mitch asks about the man’s condition and tells him to hold on and promises he’ll bring the girl. Mitch eavesdrops on Viki’s prayers and she says she blames everything on Mitch. Then she thinks about how much she misses Ben and her sons. She swears she just wants them to be happy. She feels guilty for feeling bad that they’re so far away and she asks God for help. Mitch comes out and tells her that God won’t help her because he won’t help a sinner who keeps a man from his wife. He throws her words about whom she blames back at her, along with her attempts to keep Natalie away from him, and Viki becomes angry. She swears that the divine owes him nothing and he insists that Viki does. He threatens to make her suffer for all eternity.
In the church, Joey calls to his mother and when she turns around Viki is ecstatic to see her son. He tells her that he’s here for good and she becomes even happier. She asks how he knew to come at the time she needs him the most and he admits that Andrew informed him. He assures her that he was coming anyway because Andrew got him assigned here his first year if he passes divinity school. She says it’s what she was praying for and thanks God. Then they head home. She asks him to make her a ‘Joey special’ and as she’s hanging up his coat she hears him say Jessica’s name. First they embrace and then Viki cries with joy. Joey tells Jessica to turn around and she does so and sees her mother.
