usual. Evangeline arrives to be R.J.'s attorney. Bo assures her that they will
investigate what happened. Evangeline tells R.J. that he won't have much of a
case once they figure out that R.J. is the one who started the fight. After they
see Antonio, she gets an idea, saying that even though they can't put Antonio in
jail, it should be enough to get a restraining order against him and will help
out Keri's custody case, which makes R.J. happy.
Jessica meets with Antonio at the Llanview Hotel's restaurant. She tells him
about Keri's accusations. Antonio swears he never hit Keri and never would. Keri
loiters nearby, watching them, to put pressure on them. Jessica assures him that
she believes what he says. But she is still worried about his temper. He
promises to keep working on it and is touched that she went to see Keri on his
behalf. They make plans to meet later for dinner.

herself the bruises in order to get back at Antonio.

tells him what happened. Bo is not happy that Antonio lost control and tells him

a touching reunion. Blair questions her about what she meant, that Walker is the
only one who knows where Todd is. Starr covers, saying she was out of it. Walker
doesn't want to let the doctors x-ray him but they have to treat him, so he
makes sure it's confidential and then he lets them do it. They find out what
Kevin found out, that he had massive broken bones, and pins in his arm and
shoulder, but he claims it happened a long time ago as a result of abuse from
his parents. Blair questions him about what Starr said but he says that he was
just trying to keep her spirits up when she was drowning. Blair thanks him for
saving Starr but asks him not to mention Todd again. Starr visits Walker and
says that, like when she saved the man on the wheel, she owes him. She asks him

it. They hug. She asks him about when he called her "Shorty" but he says lots of
adults call kids that.
