The show starts off with Ethan & Gwen in bed kissing. Ethan says I don't like that your leaving and Gwen says I have to it's business. He says I know, but I'm going to miss you. She say's I'm going to miss you too, but you are going to be so busy with the wedding and honey moon plans. Ethan says it's going to be lonely with both you and Sheridan leaving. Gwen says that's why I arraigned for you to have some work to do when I am gone and to have someone to help you. Ethan says who? Gwen says Theresa. The next scene Ethan is bringing Gwen breakfast in bed. He says so what is this work you want me to do and how does Theresa fit in? Ethan says wouldn't it be better if you and her just worked on the wedding by phone and fax? He says I am really busy at the law firm and have several very important cases coming up. She says that is another reason it's a good idea for you and Theresa to be working together, Theresa will help and take some of the pressure off you. Ethan says how? Gwen says please, I know it will be a lot of work, but it would mean so much to me to know my future husband helped put together my perfect wedding of my dreams. Gwen says she wants to help us and I owe her so much. He says how do you figure that? Gwen says well, she did give you the nudge to propose to me and it was Theresa's wedding portfolio that mad me realize that I could have my perfect wedding that it was within my grasp and most important I know Theresa isn't interested in you and I can trust her with you. Ethan says all right I will do it, but I don't want her to become consumed with helping me with the wedding. Gwen says she won't. He says well, I don't want her to burdened with all the extra work. Gwen says well, you and Theresa can just squeeze in as much time as you can. That's understood, but try to squeeze in as much time as you can. He says I know you want a spring wedding, but with this time crunch... She say's I know, but with the 3 of us working together it will be done in no time. Gwen says again how she can't believe that she thought Theresa was trying to steal Ethan from her. Next Scene Theresa and Whitney is sneaking into Ethan's room. Whitney says hurry go get your portfolio he will be back any minute. I will go down to Mrs. Cranes room and get your laptop. Theresa gets the portfolio and turns to leave just as Ethan walks back into his room. Theresa says you weren't here and I needed to get the wedding portfolio. He says I thought we were going to work on it here. She says I thought I would work on it at home. He says I can't do that Luis wouldn't let me near your house and he still doesn't know you work for the family. Theresa says we could talk on the phone and fax back and forth. he says well there are some things we have to talk about face to face. He says I get the felling that you are reluctant to work together. Am I wrong about that? She says no I want to work with you he said well then it would make more sense for you to work here. She says I guess so, it won't be a problem. Theresa is in bed dreaming about she and Ethan working on the plans for his wedding and he tells her how helpful she is being planning his and Gwen's wedding and she tells him it was for she and Ethan's wedding. Ethan says I never dare hope that's you could love me Theresa. He says I want you Theresa, I want to marry you, only you and they kiss. Theresa smiles while still sleeping. Back at the Lopez-Fitzgerald house Theresa is still dreaming. In her dream she and Ethan are still kissing. Ethan says I love you more than I ever loved anyone. Theresa says I put you out of my mind, but I couldn't put you out of my hear. Ethan says be mine, be mine forever and Theresa says yes, yes. Ethan picks her up and says it's time for out honeymoon. Theresa starts talking in her sleep. She says oh Ethan make love to me. Theresa's bedroom door opens and all we see is someone's hand on the doorknob with black gloves on and black pants. Theresa keeps talking saying I love you Ethan. I love you so much. Theresa continues to dream as the black clothed person stands in front of Theresa's bed. Theresa says I want you so much Ethan. In Theresa's dream Gwen calls and Theresa answers. Gwen talks to her about the wedding while Ethan is in bed with Theresa. Theresa says we are working on everything very closely don't worry. Then Theresa suddenly wakes up and we see that the person standing by her bed was Whitney. Whitney says Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald you are wicked!, just wicked! I am so incredibly disappointed in you. She says what? and Whitney says you were talking in your sleep. She says I can't help what I dream about. Whitney says you said you were over him. She says I can't help it. Whitney says it will never happen between you to. They talk about Theresa and Ethan working together and Whitney tries to talk Theresa out of it. Theresa says you right I have to keep far away from him, but I left my laptop and the portfolio at the Crane mansion. Whitney says we will go get it before he even sees us. Theresa calls to see if he is there. Ethan is in the shower and his answering machine picks up. Theresa says he is not there and hangs up. Whitney says good we can go over right now and get it. Then we see Ethan walk out of the shower to get the phone and he says I thought I heard it ring, but there is no message. Eve is one the phone saying, a statue of a bird? Kay say's uh huh. Eve say's who is this? Kay hangs up. Julian asks Eve what happened and Eve said they just hung up. Julian says interesting that someone would be asking about a statue of a bird. It's easy to jump to the conclusion that whoever that was they were looking for the same bird that had the pictures in it! Eve said I thought it was burned in the fire. Julian says what if it wasn't and someone found it an opened it? Eve says trust me the bird statue is gone. Julian say's not very convincing. You never saw it burn. She says It's not out there! he says I don't have to remind you what is at stake? She says no you don't. he says our lives are at risk it all rides on the fact that those photos were destroyed. She says they were. He say's you don't know that. She says I was there. He says where? She say's Orville's apartment and she tells him she burned it down. She said I had to, my whole live depended on it. Julian says I wouldn't tell. She say's about the pictures? and he says not only that, but let's just shut up about that. He says if our past ever came to life my father would disinherit me. Eve says I wish I could erase that part of my life. Julian said I would trade it for everything. Eve says stop it. Julian says you are so incredibly seductive, why don't you come back to my office? Eve says if you don't remove your hands from me I will remove your fingers with a scalpel. Eve says you will never touch me again. He says lighten up. She says never talk about the past again. I am not at all the woman you knew back then. I have a career and self worth and I got it all from T.C. Julian says I haven't talked to anyone else about us except you. Eve says she worries about damaging her daughters because of what she did when she was young. Julian says you don't have to persuade me we are both on the same page. Our past will stay in the past. The phone rings and Eve answers it, it's T.C. He says I thought you would be home by now. She says I just finished. T.C. tells her about trying to help her open something and by the time she gets home he might have it opened. Julian is in his office drinking like usual. He continues to reminisce about his and Eve's past. The phone rings. It's Alistair. He says what were you thinking of Julian? photographs of you and Eve Russell. What the hell was that all about? He gulps. Julian says what do you mean. He says do you deny there are photos? he says no. All the evidence was burned in the fire I'm sure. Alistair said you better be right or I might have to rethink who will be my heir. Those photos better not show up or I might have to think about if you are fit to be the head of the Crane family. T.C. is still trying to get the bird statue open. He says there probably isn't anything in here. Simone says I think there is. T.C. continues to fiddle with it and they hear a click sound. Simone says is that it, is it open? He said I heard it too. Simone says that means there has to be away to open it. He says you know honey I love these puzzles, but there is always some trick to opening them. He continues to try to open it. He says I'm sure whatever is inside will be a surprise for both of us. The phone rings. It's Kay and Kay tells Simone about Charity breaking up with Miguel and she says I have to get to him before they hook up again. Simone says stay there I will be right over and hangs up. Simone leaves and TC continues to work on trying to open the bird. He says I will have it open before you get back. Next Scene T.C. is still working on opening the bird when we hear Eve says T.C.? from downstairs. He says come here I want to show you something. Then he thinks to himself, maybe Eve knows how to open this thing. Eve walks up carrying a whole bunch of boxes and drops them T.C. leaves Simone's room to help her and he finds that Eve bought some lingerie. She says I thought I could model this fro you tonight. He said what could have put this in my beautiful but conservative wife's head? Eve says what were you doing in Simone's room? He says I was trying to help her open up this puzzle box. He says she thinks there is something inside, maybe you could help. She says oh I'm good at puzzles let me see. They start to walk into the room and the credits roll... Miguel says to Charity what do you mean? Charity says it's best if I don't have anything more to do with you and Miguel says no, you don't mean. Charity says yes I do. Miguel says we have only just begun. Charity says no. He says are you telling me you want to end it. Charity has a flashback to the vision she had of Miguel with the scissors through his chest. She says it's for the best. Kay is the kitchen eavesdropping and smiles. Miguel says don't do this Charity. She says it's over and Miguel says never. She says I can't be around you anymore. I am scared that if I stay with you something bad is going to happen. He says where is this coming from, what happened? Kay talks to herself, saying she is crazy that is what happened. Charity says I just got out of a psychiatric ward, I'm sick. Miguel say no! Charity says I get these things in my head. He says I don't understand, you know none of this makes and difference to me. You have to understand. Kay mutters to herself don't listen to him. Charity says well, it makes a difference to me. All the difference in the world. She says something bad will happen if I stay with you. He says that doesn't make any sense. She says don't make this any harder. He says let's be rational. She says no Miguel just forget about me. (she walks away, and Kay walks in from the kitchen) She say's what's up? Miguel says my whole world just blew up in my face and I don't know why. Kay say's oh, Miguel I am here for you. Miguel tells Kay about what Charity said and he doesn't understand what is bothering her. Kay says well she has been acting strange and lists off all the strange things that she has done lately. Kay says I think it is time we face what is really going on with her. Miguel says she has just been under a lot of stress with her mother dying and everything. Kay says well, I've been thinking we don't know what much about Charity and her past and her mother was a bit bizarre. Miguel says I don't care we have to find out what is wrong with Charity. The next scene Charity is in her room looking out her window crying. She is looking at a picture of her and Miguel. There is a knock at the door. It's Miguel and he comes in. He walks over to her and puts his hand on her cheek. He says why are you crying what is wrong? She says I can't imagine not being with you. He says I want to be. She says we can't be together if you stay with me you will get hurt. Kay is downstairs and says did he close the door? Maybe I should go up. Then Simone walks in. Simone says what is going on and Kay said I told you. Simone says I don't believe you, you have a habit of making more of things than there actually is. Kay says it's true I swear they broke up. Simone says how did you do it? Kay said I didn't do anything. Kay said I didn't even need the bird statue. This girl is certifiable. She has to be to give up Miguel. Simone says, so you don't want the bird statue anymore? She says no. Simone says so does this mean you will leave Charity alone now? Kay says as long as she stays away from Miguel. Simone says how very generous of you. Kay says I still don't know what it was about that bird statue that made her go crazy and I guess we never will. Simone says I don't know someone might be trying to open it as we speak. The next scene Kay continues to gloat. She says this is the happiest day of my life. She says me and Miguel will be together he will be my lover and Charity will be left out in the cold. Simone says I can't believe you won. The next scene. Miguel and Charity are still in Charity's room. He says we can work through this. She says no. If we stay together it will be dangerous for you. he says how? She says I could be the reason that you die. he says no. She says you have to go it's over between us, it's just over.
