Tad asks if she can't see that's exactly what Jamie and JR are doing? Because, whether she likes it or not, they're both in love with her daughter! Krystal says she and Babe are closer than ticks and that's never going to change-can he say the same about Jamie? Tad says absolutely; he knows he can come to him with anything because he wants what's best for him. Krystal shares that Babe's name is really Arabella, named after her great-great aunt, who bragged about $2,000- she had stuffed under her bed. That was $2,000- more than she had, so she thought she'd give her a namesake and maybe she'd put her in the will, but she didn't like babies and left the money to her cats, Sigfreud and Roy! Arabella turned into Babe, and that's the last time she ever did anything for money; her baby girl is all she ever needed or wanted to make her feel complete. Tad thinks she's one lucky lady. He returns her purse, and Krystal apologizes for reading him the riot act. Tad understands you love your children, no matter what. Krystal thinks maybe he's starting to understand her, "Too bad we're on opposite sides of the fence, for now." She leaves, and Tad logs onto the computer, "Come on, Arabella!"

YOUR VERY OWN ALCATRAZ…

Ryan gloats they dodged a bullet again, "Did I get you a brilliant doctor, or what?" Kendall unenthusiastically agrees she's brilliant, and Ryan exclaims she is unreal! "Do you really think I could make love to you one minute and then ship you off to prison the next?" Kendall thinks he and Greenlee are capable of anything! She heard them at the lodge, and they're both dead set on proving she's not really pregnant. Ryan reminds her he told her he was going to hire a doctor to fake the DNA test and he did; that's why Dr. Lossin was here. There's no scheme, no agenda, no plot. Kendall asks if she should believe him just because he says so? Ryan wonders if she thinks he's trying to protect her so she can rot in prison, and he can have the entire Cambias estate for his big, bad self? Kendall asks if he can blame her for being suspicious? He kicked her out of bed so he could play footsies with Greenlee! Ryan thinks she's got some ego, but insists they're in this together. Does she want him to swear on a bible or sign in blood, "Do you want me to say I love you?" Kendall agrees that would help, "Do you, Ryan? Do you love me?" He asks if it will make any difference? He's told the entire world he believes she's having Cambias' kid, and his word isn't good enough for her? She cries she could lose everything if she goes with him on this, but Ryan thinks she could also gain a hell of a lot! Kendall needs something-she can't just leap and hope he'll catch her, not this time. She just wants an answer, something to hang onto to get her through this, and he can't even give her that! Ryan says she can hold onto him, "You want something to believe in? Let's get married! Better yet, let's make a baby, a real one, right here, right now!" He insists she wants to test him over and over again! He just told her he wants to marry her and make babies; did all that commitment make her believe in him any more than when she walked into this room? It didn't, because she doesn't trust him, and it's not because of him, but because of her! She argues he's given her every reason to doubt him; Ryan insists he's given her more reasons to believe in him, but she will never let herself trust him. Kendall says that's because he'll say anything to get what he wants. Ryan tells her, whatever this is, it's over; they walk away with no regrets. When she says now he's going to bail on her, Ryan repeats that she doesn't trust him enough to see this thing through, but when he frees her up and gives her what she wants, she thinks he's letting her down-she's totally nuts! Kendall insists she just wants to make this work, but Ryan doesn't need her slamming him over the head with a new test every day! Kendall suggests they say she believes him, goes along with Dr. Lossin's plan, and then he turns on her! While he's counting his millions of dollars, she's stuck in prison for the rest of her life. Ryan tells her to wake up, "You're already in prison!" She's built her very own Alcatraz in her mind; she's so jammed up with her hurt and anger and suspicion that she's trapped, and will be in there for life unless she does something to break out! Kendall agrees she has issues, but Ryan doesn't want to revisit that same old whine. He wants to help her but she has to let him in, or this whole thing is going to blow up in their faces-she screwed up his life once already, and he's not going to let it happen again! Kendall asks why he's here, and Ryan says he's not a flat leaver, not this time, "It's your choice." Kendall agrees to trust him, and says they'll do it his way; he should be thrilled he got what he wanted!
