Episode #99

Chad is dreaming about what Orville told him. He's asleep outside Orville's apt. building when Simone wakes him up. She asks if he's been there all night, and he told her yes b/c he has to find out some answers. She brought him some coffee and donuts, and asks if there is anything she could do. He says he just wants to get some answers and can't figure out what happened to Orville. Simone starts in on her kidnapping/X-files theory again, and Chad tells her he's not in the mood to hear it. Sheridan is asleep on the couch and Ivy comes in and wakes her up. She asks Sheridan why she's asleep on the couch instead of in her room. Sheridan tells her she must have nodded off. Ivy asks if she's feeling better, but Sheridan says she's just not sure. They talk more about what Julian said about Martin Fitzgerald. Ivy says she remembers the day she found out and how devastated Pilar was. Sheridan said she doesn't remember. Ivy said she thinks that she was already in Paris...in fact, she believes that Alistair had her sent away that morning. Sheridan freaks out wondering if she killed Martin. Ivy said that's ridiculous and that it's just a coincidence that those things happened so close together. Sheridan said Ethan can help her and she has to find the answers. Ethan and Gwen are in bed and she looks upset...AGAIN. Ethan asks her what's wrong and she tells him she can't shake the feeling that Theresa is going to come between them. Ethan tells her there's no one else for him but her. He says he has been preoccupied lately helping Sheridan settle her past, but that's all. Gwen seems pleased to hear this, but she tells Ethan again that Theresa has major hots for him. She tells him that his last name spells money to her and that's why she's in love with him. Ethan brushes this off and tells her they need to get packed so they can go away together. When they come downstairs, Ivy and Sheridan are standing in the living room. Ethan tells them he and Gwen are going away for a few days...Sheridan looks like she could cry. She tells them how happy she is for them. Gwen asks Sheridan if she's feeling better, and she lies and says she hasn't felt better. Ivy asks if she wants to talk to Julian again, and Sheridan says no. She doesn't want him to know that she's questioning that night again. She looks at her watch and realizes she's late for work at the Youth Center, so she leaves. Luis comes into the kitchen and Pilar is sitting at the table in her robe. He asks her if she's been up all night, and she said yes b/c she couldn't sleep. She asks him if he's going to go through with his plan to arrest his own father. Luis says he has to find out what happened. Pilar tells him she already knows that Martin wasn't a thief. Miguel and Hank come in while Pilar and Luis are arguing about it. Hanks wants to know what's going on, and Miguel says you don't want to know. Pilar says how wonderful of a man Martin was and she just couldn't believe that her own son could arrest his father. Luis says he doesn't have a choice and this sets Miguel off. He says "the HELL YOU DON'T! How can you do this to our family?" Hank even tells Luis that he's hated the Cranes for years, and suddenly he's going to take Julian's word over his own mother's. Luis said he can't play favorites...even if it is his father. He is a policeman and that's his job. Hank gets annoyed and tells Pilar good luck with your son and leaves. The phone rings and Miguel said he'd get it and maybe by the time he got back, Luis would have come to his senses. He goes into Theresa's room where she and Whitney are. Theresa just finished getting all dolled up for her day at the mansion. She asks Whitney how she looks, and Whitney tells her great, but how can she be so consumed with Ethan when she just found out horrible news about her father. Theresa says she knows that her father wasn't a thief. She believes that. Miguel comes in and said that Simone was the one that called. He told Whitney that she was at some pay phone and she was helping Chad. Whitney gets upset and says she has to go find her. Miguel then asks Theresa how she can be so worried about nail polish when her family is falling apart. She says she's doing this for her family...when she marries Ethan she can help the family. Miguel tells her to dream on. He tries to talk some sense into her, but she just won't listen. Whitney catches up to Simone and lights into her for not being at school when she has a test today. Simone tells her that she feels bad leaving Chad all alone, so Whitney agrees to stay with him while Simone takes her test. Whitney and Chad get into it about how she thinks he's bad news. She goes off saying how he tells nothing but lies, but he puts her in her place by telling her about how he had to struggle on the streets to survive. Just then, Orville returns to his apt. building and starts to leave when Chad grabs him and tells him he's not going anywhere. He pins him up against the wall and asks him to tell him what he knows. Orville says he doesn't even know who Chad is. Theresa is in Ethan's room daydreaming about him kissing her when he walks in. He wonders what she's doing there, and she tells him that he asked her there to work on a project. He tells her he forgot and that it will have to wait for a few days. She asks why and he tells her that he's going out of town. She says "no you can't!" He wants to know what she meant by that. Sheridan is at the Youth Center and she decides she needs to find out some answers on her own about Martin. She calls the airport to have the Crane jet fueled to take her to New Mexico. She's almost finished with her call, but Luis catches her asking what the weather is like in New Mexico. He wants to know if this has anything to do with his father.
