LAUGHING ON THE WAY…

With the help of a stuffed bear named Dr. Feel Better, Ryan got Emma to admit that she got her tummy ache after a mean boy laughed at her. The “doctor” prescribed lots of ice cream, and to laugh right back at the little boy. Fully cured after eating her ice cream and practicing laughing, Emma happily let Ryan take her back to preschool, agreeing they’d practice laughing on the way.

IT’S YOU I DON’T TRUST…

Annie angrily asked Kendall where she got off keeping Emma from her father on purpose? She knew why she did it. She wants Ryan to have only one child, hers. She wants him to love only one child, Spike, and she wants him to love only one woman, “You.” Kendall suggested that Annie would like it if the killer got her so she wouldn’t be in her way with Ryan. Annie called that a new low, even for her. She said Ryan’s heart was so big; he loved his son, so why couldn’t she trust that he would love both of his kids the same way? Kendall agreed she trusted Ryan, “It’s you I don’t trust.” Annie said this was like talking to a pile of rocks! Kendall asked what she and Ryan were going to do about Emma? “None of your damn business,” Annie replied.

ONE DEATH AT A TIME…

When Adam blamed Tad for making a stupid mistake and getting Dixie killed, Krystal defended Tad and demanded that her husband apologize. Adam did, and said the killer was probably that Zarf character anyway. Tad told him to knock it off—leave Zoe alone! She was not the killer. Adam asked if Zarf wasn’t the killer, then who the hell was going after his family? Tad thought a better question was who was going after Zach Slater? When Krystal said he was leading up to Kendall one death at a time, Adam wondered why he didn’t just take Zach out and leave the women alone? Tad noted, “Being a master of vengeance, I’m surprised you have to ask the question.” If you take out your victim too soon, they don’t suffer. After Tad left the room, Adam held Krystal and thought if she had tasted those pancakes… What about Colby, or Little Adam? If he lost any of them, “Especially you…”

SOMETIMES WE FIGHT DIRTY…

Bianca was taken aback to find that Zoe was staying with Josh right downstairs from her, and asked if he was stalking her? Zoe asked if she didn’t get it? Her brother still thought she was the Satin Slayer, and wanted to keep an eye on her. Zoe left for a walk, and Josh told Bianca he’d make sure Zoe stayed out of her way. He admitted he was worried about Babe, and hated not being able to protect her or know that she was okay. Kendall arrived and raged at Josh for drugging her husband and making him blurt out that Annie’s little girl was Ryan’s daughter! Bianca realized this was what Josh had been holding over Kendall, what he used to get her to help him get Babe. What was wrong with the two of them? Josh said he and Kendall fight for the ones they care about. Sometimes they fight dirty, and sometimes it pays off. Bianca felt that fighting dirty wasn’t exactly something to be proud of. Josh told Kendall she should be focusing on the more important issue here, that she was in danger. He stormed out, and Bianca asked Kendall how could she, of all people, keep a little girl from her parent? Kendall insisted she did it for Ryan, but Bianca didn’t buy that. Kendall told her sis of the plan to trap the killer, and wanted her to promise if anything happened to her, that she’d fight for custody of Spike—she didn’t want Annie raising her son! Bianca was worried, and pleaded with her to be careful.

PLEASE GIVE US ALL A CHANCE…

J.R. was stunned to realize that Babe had known all along that Krystal was carrying Tad’s baby. He asked what he should do, go on letting his dad believe a lie, or give Tad his baby? Should he go against his mother’s last dying wish? Babe begged him not to tell anyone—he couldn’t possibly think telling Adam that her mama was carrying Tad’s child was going to make losing Dixie any easier. Please, before he did anything, just think about it. Please just give them all a chance.

NO MORE…

Zach went to the funeral home, and leaned over Dixie’s coffin as he sighed, “I’m sorry, honey. I’m so sorry.” She died because of him. He should have saved her! Ryan came in and said he was sorry; he was wrong for accusing him of holding back. Zach said it was done, no more. He and Kendall were throwing a party, and the guest of honor was the killer. Di came in and cried at the sight of the coffin; she said she wanted her sister back.

YOU NEVER WILL BE…

Maggie encountered Zoe in the park, and was angry when she questioned how she could have broken Bianca’s heart. When Zoe said she was completely in love with Bianca, Maggie warned her not to take advantage of Bianca, adding that she could never love her, “You're not even her type. You never will be.”

YOU DON’T WANT TO LOSE WHAT I JUST LOST…

Zach arrived to offer his condolences, but Adam said they didn’t need sympathy, they needed answers, “Find out who’s murdering women in your name and stop him.” Tad came downstairs after sweeping the house for bugs; Zach told him he had an idea to flush out the killer, and wanted him in on it. Krystal was upset at the idea of Babe going to the party, but Zach insisted she had to be there. She was supposed to be next; the killer missed, and was going to try again. Tad agreed, and if it happened, it was better it happen in a controlled environment. Adam insisted J.R. would never let her go. It wasn’t going to happen, “So go plan your party somewhere else, both of you. You're done here.” Tad told Zach he’d better pray this works, “Because you don't want to lose what I just lost.”

STAY AWAY FROM SLATER…

Di asked the funeral director that Dixie’s mother’s bible be placed with her sister. She leaned over the coffin and whispered to Dixie; she swore on that bible that they would find him. An envelope was delivered to Ryan with a note, “Stay away from Slater. He killed your sister. He’ll kill the mother of your child.”
