Logan's Porsche

Logan is unconscious in his Porsche. He had gone to Barcode to pick up an intoxicated Jarrod to take him back to his hotel suite; Jarrod woke up from a slumber and thought that Logan was Donovan, so he made a pass at him. Logan, in turn, tried to remove Jarrod's hand from his groin. That's when it happened. Logan wasn't paying attention to the road. He didn't see Cory trying to cross the road. By the time Logan returned his attention to the road, he tried to brake, but his car hit Cory!

Steam is coming out of the engine. Jarrod groans as his eyes open. He looks around and sees Logan unconscious. The windshield is shattered and there is blood splatted on it.

"Oh my God," Jarrod says in a panic. "I…I have to get you home, Logan. I have to get us out of here."

He opens the door and sees Cory's body laying on the ground behind the car. He feels a huge lump move into his throat realizing what happened. "Dear God," he says as he moves to the other side of the car. He opens the door and moves Logan to the passenger side of the car. Jarrod, then, gets into the car, turns it on, and speeds away, leaving Cory on the ground bleeding.

 
 

Dominick's Townhouse

Felicia moves up to the fireplace in the living room of Dominick's townhouse and she grabs a picture of her family. In the framed image, she is standing next to Dominick, Tyler, Leah, Robin, Paige, Dominique, and Oscar. She gets a smile on her face at the sight of the family that she and Dominick have created together.

As she looks at the images of her children and grandchildren, she can't help but be grateful to Eva; she is the one that told her that she had to seek medical attention so she can have as much time with her family as possible. That's when she agreed to see Stephanie, who made a house call and ran some tests on her. While she thought that she had a flu or a cold bug, she hasn't been able to shake it despite being under the weather for weeks.

On top of that, when she does have coughing spells, she, often, will have blood in her tissue. She has no idea why but it has become more concerning too her. She just hopes that Stephanie is able to figure out what is going on with her.

She sets the picture back on the mantel when she hears the telephone start to ring. She moves to the other side of the room where the telephone is. "Hello," she says as she picks up the call. "Oh, yes, this is Felicia Robertson."

She hears the nurse explain that she is calling from Stephanie's office. "My test results are in? Yes, I'd like to make an appointment. As soon as possible, please," she says as she starts to feel her heart racing about what the results may or may not tell her about her health.

The Sugarbowl

Dominick moves into the coffeehouse as he is looking to grab a pumpkin spice latte. It is a true sign that fall is in the air, as if the leaves changing color in trees in Twin Peaks wasn't enough of a sign of the change of season. After he orders his drink, he turns while he waits for the barista to make his latte. He sighs when he sees Frederick sitting at the window seat. He recalls how Felicia informed him and Eva that she ran into the doctor on the pier a few nights earlier. Felicia, however, made Dominick proud by telling Frederick to sign the divorce papers or she will reveal that he had been drugging her for months.

After grabbing his latte, and thanking the barista, Dominick moves towards his rival. "The rumors are true, you're back in town."

Frederick looks up from his phone screen and nods back to Dominick. "You've always been very observant."

"Felicia told me she ran into the other night," Dominick says back to him. "Looks like you're between a rock and a hard place," he chuckles to him.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Frederick rolls his eyes back to him.

"The divorce papers," Dominick whispers to him. "You'll sign them or she will reveal how horrible of a human being you really are."

"I don't think Felicia would do that to me," Frederick admits to him. "Deep down, she loves me."

Dominick continues to laugh at him. "If you think that, you're more delusional than anyone ever thought. The fact is, Freddie, you will sign the divorce papers or you're going to be spending a very long time in jail. It seems like a no-brainer to me."

Tyler's Townhouse

"Are you sure that I can't get you anything else?" Tyler asks Kim, as he clears her breakfast plate in the small kitchen in their home that they live in together. He wants to make sure that his wife has had enough breakfast because she is now eating for two; he is over the moon by Kim's reveal that she is pregnant with his child.

Kim chuckles back to him as she wipes her mouth with a napkin. "Yes, I'm sure," she tells him. "Just because I am eating for two, I still get full."

Tyler giggles back to his pregnant wife. "I still can't believe that we are going to have a baby, Kim," he tells her as he sits next to her. "After all this time, we are going to be parents again."

"The world works in mysterious ways," Kim purses her lips back to him. "Especially since I just got Bobby back in my life, and now, he's going to be a big brother."

"Our life is really coming together, isn't it?"

"It is," Kim nods back to him. "But you know what? Being with this baby, it has made me realize something."

"What's that?" Tyler asks her with an arched eyebrow.

"I want to create a legacy," Kim reveals to him. "I want to ensure that we are leaving something meaningful behind."

"A legacy?" he asks in surprise. "How do you think we can do that? How can we create a legacy?"

Kim chuckles back to him. "I thought you'd never ask, because I have an idea, and I hope you'll agree with me."

The Pink Flamingo at the River Rock Casino

"You two must be thrilled with the outcome of the trial," Andrew chuckles to Trenyce and Chris as he sits next to Daisy as the four are having breakfast together. Andrew and Daisy had returned home from the winery in Santa Barbara when they found out that Cheresa was on trial for murdering Tara as they wanted to support their family. Thankfully, the charges were dropped after Dawn revealed that she killed Tara while still under the influence of the brainwashing.

"We are," Trenyce nods back to him. "And to be honest, we are so grateful to you two."

"Us? What did we do?" Daisy asks her niece.

"You two came back for the trial," Chris says. "We really appreciate the support, because it was touch and go for a while."

"Thank God for Frederick," Trenyce shakes her head in disbelief. "And I never thought I'd say that."

Daisy and Andrew look at one another uneasily. "Okay, what is that look for?" Trenyce asks. "What has Frederick done this itme?"

"You two should know something," Daisy gulps back to them. "It's wild."

"And it's all because of Frederick," Andrew agrees with her.

Chris and Trenyce look at one another in confusion before they look back at Daisy and Andrew. "What's going on?" Chris asks.

"When I got to the winery," Andrew begins to explain to them. "I got the feeling that I was being watched. It turns out, there was a young woman at the winery, and she was watching me."

"A young woman? Why was there a young woman at the winery?" Trenyce asks.

Daisy sighs back to her. "Frederick had her there for years," Daisy tells them. "Do you remember when I got pregnant with Vinny's child?"

"Yes," Chris nods back to her. "You ended the pregnancy because you didn't want to raise Vinny's child."

"Right," Daisy says back to her family. "Frederick found out that I was going to have an abortion and he stepped in."

"What do you mean, he stepped in?" Trenyce asks her.

"The clinic that I went too, he paid off the nurse," Daisy continues to explain. "She removed the embryo from me and they impregnated a surrogate."

"What?" Chris and Trenyce gasp in shock together.

"The woman at the winery," Daisy says as a tear falls down her cheek. "She's my daughter. My baby is alive and well, all thanks to Frederick."

"And Latrice, that's her name," Andrew says as he grabs Daisy's hand. "She's in town, and she's furious with Daisy."

"I don't believe this," Chris shakes his head back to her. "This is unreal."

"You're telling me," Daisy sighs back to him. "I don't know how to make of this right, or if that's even possible."

***

At another table in the back of the restaurant, Meggan and Jeff sit across from one another as they are having breakfast together. Jeff knew that he had to see Meggan this morning because he wants her to find out about Victoria's pregnancy from him, and since Victoria will start to show soon, he has to tell her sooner than later.

"I am sorry that Logan couldn't join us today," Meggan says before she takes a bite of her bacon and then looks back at her former husband. "He's not really talking to me right now, though."

Jeff chuckles back to her. "He is probably still upset with us for trying to convince him not to move in with Andy."

"I still think that is a huge mistake," Meggan shakes her head back to him. "I don't know what it will take for Logan to realize that Andy is bad news for him."

"We just have to be there for him if and when Logan needs us," Jeff tells her. "But, our son, he's not the reason I wanted to have breakfast with you today, Meg. I…I have some news and I wanted you to hear it from me."

Meggan arches her eyebrow back to him as she takes a sip of her coffee. "Oh, okay. What is going on, Jeff?"

"Well, you know that Victoria and I are closer than ever, right?" he asks her as she nods back to him. "We learned that she is pregnant, Meggan. Victoria is going to have my child."

Meggan looks back at him in surprise. The last thing that she expected Jeff to tell her was that he is going to be a father again. They aren't exactly at the age where a baby would be common.

"Oh, I see," Meggan tells him. "Well, congratulations, Jeff. If this is what you and Victoria want, then I am happy for you."

"Thanks, we are over the moon," Jeff smiles back to her. "She's taking it easy, but we are both excited."

"I can't help but wonder about something," Meggan admits to him as Jeff arches his eyebrow. "Logan, Jeff. How do you think our son will feel about this?"

The Pier

Bryce sits on a bench on the pier and watches the river flowing by him. He is trying to come up with a plan of attack to help him, finally, move past his lingering feelings for Victoria. Now that she is engaged to Jeff, and they are expecting a child together, he has realized that no matter what he and Leah try to do, they will be together.

He turns his head when he hears some high heels rushing down the pier. He sees a woman walking quickly, almost running. Behind her, a man is following her closely. Bryce can't place it, but he sense that something is off about the situation, so he starts rushing towards the man.

The man, however, catches the woman and puts her up against one of the brick walls. "Pretty thing like you can't run away from me," he grins at her as she looks back at him terrified.

"Is there a problem here?" Bryce asks coming up behind him. "It doesn't look like she wants to be around you, man."

The thug turns around and grins back to Bryce. "You can mind your own business, man. This is between me and her."

"I'd like too, but when a woman looks that scared, I make it my business. And you should know, I've called the cops, so they will be here soon," Bryce tells him as the thug gulps.

He turns back and looks at the woman. "This ain't over," he winks back at her before he rushes off when he hears the police sirens.

Bryce moves closer to the woman. "Are you okay?"

"Thank you," she whispers back to him. "You…you saved me."

The Sugarbowl

"I think it's time we got a few things straight, don't you?" Stephanie asks Cassie as she sits across from her at the back booth of the coffeehouse. Stephanie had arrived at the coffeehouse to grab a coffee before she was heading into the hospital, when she saw her rival. She sat across from her because she is furious with Cassie for revealing her secret: she is a transwoman to Jacob.

"Oh goody, this is exactly what I wanted this morning," Cassie rolls her eyes back to her. "Say your peace and then leave me alone. The last thing I want is for you to be in my face, Stephanie."

"How dare you," Stephanie hisses back to her. "How could you tell Jacob the truth about me? That was not your story to tell, Cassie."

"My husband wanted the truth from me," Cassie insists. "So I told him the secret that I was keeping from him. I am sorry if you're upset by this, Stephanie, but I couldn't lie to my husband anymore."

Stephanie breaks into laughter at Cassie's response as she knows that Cassie is still lying to Jacob. "You are forgetting something," she whispers back to her. "I know…Cassie…"

"Shut up," Cassie warns her. "You keep me and my family out of our mouth."

"You ruined my life," Stephanie tells her. "And now, I'm going to ruin yours."

Before Cassie can respond, Jacob rushes up to the table having seen the two women in a heated encounter when he walked in. "What is going on here?" Jacob asks the two women. "And why do I feel like I just walked in on the start of world war three?"

Twin Peaks Executive Hotel

Jarrod paces back and forth in his hotel suite. He can't believe the events that transpired this morning; Logan picked him up from the bar, where he had been drinking to celebrate the fact that he and Donovan made love the previous night. Once Logan got Jarrod to his vehicle, Jarrod passed out, but he woke up on the way home. He thought that Logan was Donovan, and made a move on him. When Logan moved Jarrod's hand back, he lost focus of the road. Then, Logan hit someone with his car! When Jarrod came too, he raced back to the hotel suite.

He looks over at Logan, who is still unconscious from the accident. He is laying on the large bed in the hotel room. "Come on, Logan," he whispers to himself. "Wake up. Come back to me so we can plan our next move."

Main Street

Cory's body continues to lay in the middle of the road after Logan hit him with his car. Then, a pedestrian, sees Cory and rushes up to him, screaming in horror at the amount of blood that she sees.

"Oh God," she cries as she pulls out her phone and calls 9-1-1. "Yes, I'm on main street. A man…he's been hit by a car! I need an ambulance! Please, please hurry!"

- Will Logan wake up?

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"Robin? What happened? Where is my father?" Sophie asks many questions as she storms into a waiting room at the hospital. She was at home when Robin called her and told her that Cory was brought into the hospital. Sophie just hopes that her father is okay from whatever has happened.

Robin turns and faces the younger woman. Her mind is rattled. She is nervous. She is scared. Earlier, she and Cory and had a horrible fight over the fact that Robin's conversation with Penny is, partly, why Penny decided to leave Twin Peaks and return to her farm with Benji. Cory ended up rushing out of the penthouse claiming he needed air. About thirty minutes later, Robin got a call that Cory's body was found on the road.

"I don't know all the details," Robin admits to her. "But your father, he was hit by a car."

"What?" Sophie gasps back in horror. "Who would do that? Who would run over my Dad?"

"Again, I don't know all the details," Robin tells her. "When I got here, the doctor told me that they had to take Cory into surgery to try to stop the internal bleeding."

"But he is alive?" Sophie breathes a sigh of relief.

"Yes, but I think he is very critical, Sophie," Robin tells her. "I…I am scared."

Sophie moves to Robin and pulls her into a hug. "He has to make it, he just has too," Sophie whispers back to her. "We can't lose my Dad."

Twin Peaks Executive Hotel

Jarrod continues to pace back and forth in his hotel room as Logan remains unconscious on the bed in the suite. The longer Logan remains unconscious, the more concerned Jarrod is becoming. Logan was driving him home from Barcode when he lost focus because Jarrod tried to grope him as he thought Logan was Donovan; when Logan regained focus of the road, it was too late to avoid hitting Cory with his car. The accident left Logan unconscious; Jarrod was able to bring him to the hotel suite, but the longer Logan remains unconscious, the more he is worried that something serious could be wrong with him.

"Come on Logan," Jarrod stops and looks at his friend. "Wake up. I need you to wake up so we can decide what we are going to do."

Jarrod moves up to Logan and puts his hand on his forehead. He doesn't feel too warm, which must be a good sign, Jarrod thinks. As Jarrod is about to move away from the bed, Logan starts to groan. Jarrod rushes back to him and sits on the edge of the bed.

"Logan? Can you hear me?" Jarrod asks as Logan's eyes slowly start to open. "Hey, welcome back."

"Jarrod?" Logan asks him in confusion. "What….what happened?"

"It's a long story," Jarrod tells him, relieved that Logan is awake again. "First, how are you feeling? Can I get you anything?"

"Water?" Logan asks him quickly. "I need some water."

The Lawson Estate; Greg, Abby, Cheresa, Ethan, Georgina, Adam, & Helen's Home

Cheresa and Dawn walk down the stairs of the Lawson Estate holding hands. They spent the morning making love to one another as they wanted to celebrate the fact that all the charges against them in Tara's murder have been dropped. Now, they are famished and are looking for food.

"Have I told you how much I love you?" Cheresa stops Dawn in the foyer of the mansion and kisses her.

"Once or twice," Dawn giggles back to her. "But I never get tired of hearing it. And for the record, I love you too."

"Come on, let's go get something to eat."

Once they move into the living room, they are shocked when a group of people yell out "Surprise!"

Dawn and Cheresa look at Adam, Helen, Trenyce, Chris, and Greg in shock as the surprise party gets under way.

"What is all of this?" Cheresa asks her family as she tries to get her heartrate under control.

"We wanted to do something nice for the two of you after everything you've gone through," Greg explains as everyone comes up to hug the women.

"That's right," Trenyce chimes in. "The fact is, the trial was hell and we just wanted to celebrate the fact that everything is behind us and we can move on with our lives."

"This is so nice," Dawn smiles to everyone as she puts her arm around Helen. "But Cheresa and I, we have to thank you all. We couldn't have made it through the trial without you all. Thank you for all your support."

"Come on, let's get some food," Cheresa chuckles to Dawn as the group follows them to the table, which has many food options on it.

The Victors Mansion; Frederick's Lair

Frederick storms into the living room of the mansion he lives in and makes a beeline to the bar. He is in desperate need of a drink after his run-in with Dominick earlier at the coffeehouse. His rival told him that Felicia had him between a rock and hard place because she threatened to reveal that he was drugging her unless he signs the divorce papers.

He takes a swift swallow of the scotch before he turns around. He moves to the bookshelf, where he sees a picture of him and Felicia. He looks at the picture and thinks about the day that the photo was taken. They were so happy that day.

"I don't want to lose you," he whispers to himself. "But the fact is, if I don't sign those damn papers, I could go to jail for drugging you. I just wish you'd understand that I did that so we could be together. And we were happy together, Felicia."

He puts the picture back in his place and then he slowly walks to the desk in the living room. He sits down before he opens the side drawer and he pulls out some documents.

He, then, grabs a pen and quickly signs the documents. "There," he says before he takes another sip of his scotch. "I signed the papers. I will grant you this divorce, Felicia. But if you think I'm going to give up on you, you're dead wrong."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"I am sorry that Dr. Clarke isn't available to discuss these test results with you herself," a male nurse tells Felicia as they sit across from each other in one of the hospital rooms at Twin Peaks General Hospital. Earlier in the day, Felicia got a call from Stephanie's office advising her that her test results came back. While Dominick and Eva wanted to be with her when she got the results, Felicia came to the hospital alone.

"That is quite alright," Felicia responds to him. "I am hoping that it is just a cold or flu that I have anyways."

"I am afraid it is a bit more serious than that," the nurse tells her. "As you know, the doctor, she ran a number of tests, including some blood tests."

"Yes, I remember. What are you saying? That I have something more serious than a common cold?" Felicia asks him.

"Yes, that's what I'm saying," he admits to her. "The tests prove that you have a rare blood disease," he continues as Felicia feels her eyes swell with water. "It's called Guerin. It's where the blood cells start to attack each other instead of fighting off infections, etc."

"Guerin," Felicia whispers back to him. "Okay. What can I do to get better? Do I have to take some medication? Or is this a procedure that I can do?"

The nurse falls silent for a moment. "There, currently, is no cure," he informs her. "And with how fast this disease moves, Mrs. Robertson, I don't think there's much time left."

A tear falls down Felicia's cheek as she nods back to him. "I see. Well, thank you for telling me this. I…I should get going so I can see my family."

"Yes, of course," he tells her as he smiles back to her. "Please, contact me again if you have more questions or if any symptoms get worse."

The Sugarbowl

Jacob looks at Cassie and Stephanie with intent as he hovers over the back booth of the coffeehouse. When he arrived at the coffeehouse, he saw the two women in a heated conversation; he knows that tensions are high right now, so he came over to see what was unfolding.

"Is someone going to answer me? What is going on here?" Jacob asks them as he folds his arms over his chest.

"We were just talking," Cassie purses her lips together. "It seems that Stephanie isn't pleased that I shared with you that she was born Stefan."

"Like I said, it wasn't your story to tell," Stephanie insists back to Cassie. "But it's fine. Jacob, I am sorry. I know that this is situation is messy."

"And it just got messier," Jacob sighs back to her as Stephanie arches her eyebrow back to him.

"What do you mean?" she asks him.

"I was with my Dad at breakfast today," he tells her as he thinks about his conversation with Shane at the Calimo mansion. "He has found out about your…past…and he's suspending you…again."

"What?" Stephanie gasps back at him. "But why? What does this have to do with my job performance?"

Cassie chuckles back to her. "You've been lying and deceiving everyone, Stephanie. That has consequences."

"I…I have to go," Stephanie says as she looks at Jacob. "I hope we can talk soon, but right now, I have to talk to Shane."

Jacob watches as Stephanie rushes away from him. He, then, turns his attention to his wife. "I hope you're happy. This secret is ruining lives."

Cassie looks back at him in shock. "I'm not the one who was lying to everyone," she tells him. "You told me to tell the truth, and I did. You can't have it both ways, Jacob. You can't be furious with me for lying to you but then make me the bad guy when I tell the truth."

"I…"

"No, save it," Cassie says as she stands up. "You can only treat me like crap for so long before I'll get tired of it."

Before Jacob can say anything else to her, Cassie storms off, leaving him alone. Jacob wonders if he will ever be able to make sense of the situation that is his life right now.

The Tower's; Floor Eight; Victoria & Jeff's Condo

Brandy moves to the bar in the living room of the condo that she lives in with Jeff and pours herself a glass of red wine. While Jeff is out, she knows that she can have a drink to help calm her nerves. Once he gets back, she has to pretend that she is still pregnant, so she can't have a glass of wine. But to keep up the charade, she knows that she needs the liquid encouragement.

As she takes a sip of her drink, she can't help but remember her conversation with a nurse at the hospital the previous day. The same nurse that checked Victoria into the hospital the evening of the miscarriage had revealed to her that she, too, is pregnant, and she was going to be a single mother as her boyfriend left her when he found out that she was pregnant.

Brandy returned to the hospital and asked to chat with her in the cafeteria as she had a job for the nurse.

[FLASH]

"I must admit that I am curious about this idea of a job," the nurse told Brandy as they sat across from each other in the cafeteria.

"I couldn't help but remember that when I was brought it when I was cramping, you shared that you are also pregnant."

"I am," the nurse nodded back to her. "Only I am a bit conflicted about it because my boyfriend, he dumped me. I am alone in this but I am too far along to end the pregnancy."

"I suspected as much," Brandy replied. "That's why I wanted to offer you this….job. It's very unique and it would mean that you have to keep this extremely confidential."

"What do you want me to do?"

"You see, my fiancé's family is very opposed to him and I being together," Brandy explained. "If they found out that I miscarried the baby…they…well, they would use that to try to push us apart. I can't let that happen. I won't let that happen."

"Okay."

"And that's where you come in," Brandy pursed her lips together. "I want you to pretend to me during check-up's and once you give birth, I will raise the child as mine and Jeff's."

"What?" the nurse gasped back in shock.

"Don't worry, I have a plan. And you will be paid off very well. You see, my mother is a very wealthy woman. I will make all of your dreams come true, as long as you agree to this."

"I…uh…" the nurse stuttered. "I have to think about this."

"I understand, but don't take too long," Brandy warned her. "Because we will need to plan accordingly. What is your name, by the way?"

"Ivy," the nurse told her. "Ivy Watson."

"Ivy," Brandy smiled. "I think we will be great friends."

[FLASH]

Brandy takes another sip of her wine. Earlier in the day, Brandy received a text message from Ivy agreeing to her plan. She chuckles to herself as she realizes that her plan is well underway to ensure no one ever learns that Victoria miscarried.

"I will ensure that Jeff remains by my side," she whispers to herself. "No one will ever find out my master plan. And if they do, I will remove them, for good."

The Pier

Bryce finishes giving his statement to the police officer before he looks back at a bench, where the woman he just saved from a thug is sitting. Bryce had been on the pier trying to figure out a way to get past his feelings for Victoria, when he saw a man chasing after the woman. He interrupted the situation and when the thug found out that Bryce called the police, he took off. Thankfully, the police were able to capture him and he is arrested. Bryce and the woman, however, had to give their statements.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Bryce asks the woman as he moves up to the bench.

"I'm fine," she replies to him. "I can't thank you enough for what you did back there."

"Hey, it's all good," Bryce chuckles to her. "I am just glad that I was here. I don't know what would have happened…"

"And because of you, we will never have to find out," she tells him. "Thanks again."

"My pleasure," Bryce replies. "Do you want to go get a coffee or get some food?"

"I wish I could, but I have to get to work," she explains to him. "Maybe another time though?"

"Sure, just make sure another thug isn't following you," Bryce chuckles to her. "I'm Bryce, by the way. Bryce Barty."

"I'm Ivy," she tells him. "Ivy Watson. Pleased to meet you."

Twin Peaks Executive Hotel

"Do you want more water?" Jarrod asks Logan as he sits on the edge of the bed next to his friend. He is relieved that Logan has woken up because it means that he's not seriously injured from the car accident.

"No, I think I'm good," Logan replies to him. "What happened, Jarrod? Why do I have a splitting headache? And why I am passed out in your hotel room?"

Jarrod looks back at him in surprise. "You…you don't remember what happened?"

"No," Logan shakes his head back to him. "The last thing I remember was going home last night after we had a drink at the Pink Flamingo. Everything else since then is a complete blur."

Jarrod uneasily glups back to him and realizes that this could be a blessing in disguise. "Jarrod, you're not saying anything," Logan tells him. "What happened? Please tell me how I ended up here."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"The waiting is killing me," Robin tells Sophie as she paces back and forth in the waiting room as they continue to wait to hear something about Cory's surgery. "I wish we could find out something about Cory's status."

"I know," a pale Sophie replies to her. "I wish I understood how all of this happened."

"This is all my fault," Robin admits to her as she bites her lower lip.

"Why would you say that?"

"Because," Robin sits next to her and sighs. "Right before Cory left the penthouse, we had this huge fight. He was furious because Penny decided to leave town and go back to the farm with Benji."

"What? Why would Penny do that?" Sophie asks her.

"Because I happened to have a conversation with her where I accused her of being a bad friend," Robin explains to her. "Cory thinks that because I told Penny that, she decided to leave town. If anything happens to Cory, it will be all my fault."

"No," Sophie grabs her hand. "You weren't driving the car that ran over Cory. And you didn't leave him there for dead. You're not to blame for this, Robin. Tell me you believe me?"

"I just hope we find out something soon," Robin says as a tear falls down her cheek. "I'll feel better once I know Cory will be okay."

The Tower's; Floor One; Andy & Logan's Condo

Andy looks back at Jarrod in confusion. Jarrod brought Logan home from being at his hotel suite, where he has no recollection of the car accident that they were involved in, where Logan hit Cory with his car. Jarrod, in many ways, is relieved that Logan can't remember because, now, it will be easier for him to cover up the accident and save Logan from being in serious trouble. Jarrod blames himself for the entire situation since Logan was helping him recover from a night of drinking.

Logan is, now, resting in the bedroom while Jarrod is telling Andy everything that happened; at least, his version of what happened. He had to come up with a cover story because Logan has some cuts and bruises on his body, so he told Andy that he and Logan went on a bike ride, but Logan fell off the bike.

"You and Logan went biking together?" Andy asks him in confusion. "I didn't realize that Logan was into biking?"

"We just thought it would be a fun idea to kill some time," Jarrod lies to him. "We were in the park and Logan just lost control of his bike when a little girl jumped in front of him. He should be back to normal in a few days."

"Shouldn't he have gone to the hospital to make sure that he is okay?" Andy asks him quickly.

"He said he didn't want to go to the hospital, and, honestly, I don't think he broke any bones," Jarrod tells him. "He just has a few cuts and scrapes, and probably a bruised ego," Jarrod explains to Andy. "Like I said, he should be fine in a few days. But Andy, there is something that I need from you."

"Anything for Logan," Andy says back to him.

"Don't let Logan drink," Jarrod tells him as Andy looks back at him in surprise. "While he is recovering, he should stay off the booze. Do you think you can handle that? Do you think you can keep Logan sober?"

Twin Peaks General Hospital

Sophie and Robin remain huddled together in the waiting room of the hospital as they are waiting for an update on Cory, who was rushed into emergency surgery upon arriving at the hospital after someone found him after he was hit by a car. The longer they wait for an update, the more worried they are becoming.

"Okay, it is my turn to say that the waiting is killing me," Sophie looks over at Robin, who nods back to her. "I know you were saying that earlier, but … I wish we'd just hear something already."

"I know," Robin agrees with her. "What could they possibly be doing to him?"

Before either can respond, Shane moves into the waiting room and removes his surgical mask. His scrubs have some blood on them and he, then, removes his gloves. "Robin, Sophie," he says as the women rush up to him.

"Shane, how is my Dad?" Sophie asks him quickly as she grabs Robin's hand and squeezes it.

"He…he survived surgery, but he lost a lot of blood," Shane explains to them. "The vehicle that hit him, it was going at a good speed."

"Will he be okay?" Robin asks him.

"It's too early too tell," Shane replies to them. "His body needs a lot of time to recover from the impact of the vehicle."

"Can we see him?" Sophie asks as tears fill her eyes. "Please?"

"You can, yes," Shane nods back to them. "Just try to keep the visits a short as possible. The more rest he has, the better. And for right now, he is in an induced coma. The coma should only last a few days, but we need his body to rest and recover."

"Thank you Shane, for everything," Robin nods back to him as a tear falls down Sophie's cheek and the women turn to hug one another.

As Shane leaves the waiting room, Sergio moves inside. "Robin, Sophie," the police detective says to them. "I am here on official police business and I have to ask you each some questions," he says as Robin and Sophie nervously look at one another.

The Lawson Estate; Greg, Abby, Cheresa, Ethan, Georgina, Adam, & Helen's Home

The party to celebrate Dawn and Cheresa is still in full swing at the Lawson estate. Earlier, the two women were surprised when Greg, Adam, Helen, Trenyce, and Chris surprised them with a gathering to recognize everything they went through with the murder trial of Tara.

Dawn rushes up to Cheresa with a glass of champagne in her hand and a smile on her face. "This is so nice of our parents to do this for us," she tells her girlfriend.

"It really is," Cheresa nods back to her. "For a while there, I thought I was going to be spending a lot of time in jail."

"Thankfully Frederick was able to help me remember what really happened," Dawn looks back at her. "It's why I invited Frederick to join us today. And, It's still jarring to me to think that I have taken two lives."

"You weren't yourself," Cheresa reminds her. "You were brainwashed by Tara when you killed Chantel and Tara."

"I know, it doesn't make it any easier though."

"I have an idea," Cheresa tells her. "Something that will help us put all of this behind us and move forward in a positive light."

"What is that?" Dawn asks her curious about what Cheresa's idea is.

"Let's get married Dawn," Cheresa says as Dawn gasps back at her. "Let's become wives and spend the rest of our lives together?"

Latrice scans the room and sees Daisy and Andrew talking by the large table which has a lot of food on it. She came to the party with Frederick, who was invited after by Dawn, since he helped everyone get the truth about Tara's murder. Latrice realized that it would be a great way to get to know more people, and she already hit off with Cheresa and Dawn.

As she looks at Daisy and Andrew, she still feels her blood boil at the idea that Daisy wanted her dead before she was born. She has no idea if she will ever be able to forgive her for that, and she has told Frederick that everyone in Daisy's life should be ware of her.

"You must be Latrice," Chris says as he moves up to the younger woman with Trenyce next to him.

"I am," Latrice nods back to him.

"I am Trenyce Davenport, and this is my husband, Chris," Trenyce tells her with a smile on her face.

"Davenport?" Latrice asks with an arched eyebrow.

"Yes," Trenyce chuckles back to her. "Daisy, she's my Aunt. So, you and I, we are related."

"To be honest, when Daisy and Andrew told us the story about what happened in Santa Barbara, we were shocked," Chris admits to her. "This story is pretty outrageous."

"Yes it is," Latrice agrees with them. "But I owe my life to Frederick. If Daisy had her way, I would be dead right now. I wouldn't have even been born."

Trenyce and Chris uneasily look at one another as they realize that Latrice is still upset about how she was brought into the world.

"Just know this," Trenyce looks back at Latrice. "Daisy is a great woman; if you get to know her, you will see that too."

"I don't want to get to know her," Latrice stands her ground. "I want nothing to do with her."

***

"I saw Frederick arrive earlier," Andrew tells Daisy as they continue to nibble on some of the snacks that are at the party. Andrew knows that Daisy is not having a great relationship with her father right now because of what he did to Latrice.

"I saw that too," Daisy nods back to him. "It makes sense that he would be invited to this party considering he helped Dawn figure out the truth."

"There you are," Frederick announces to his daughter with a smile on his face. "What a nice party, huh?"

Daisy looks back at him. "What do you want?"

"I am just saying hello."

"Do me a favor, Frederick," Daisy glares back at him. "Stay the hell away from me. I … I can't stomach the sight of you right now, not after everything you have done to me! And, let me give you a warning," she continues. "Do not hurt my daughter, because if you do, you will answer to me, and you will not like it."

Frederick chuckles back to her. "Lovely to see you too, Daisy."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

Stephanie steps off the elevator and makes a beeline towards Shane's office. Her head is spinning over the fact that Jacob revealed to her that Shane was suspending her, again, from the hospital. She has no idea why she would be suspended, or why she would have to hear that news from Jacob, but she is furious and determined to get to the bottom of it.

She opens the door to Shane's office and storms inside. "We need to talk."

"This isn't a good time," Shane looks back at her. "I just got out of a long surgery, Stephanie."

"Oh, what happened?"

"Cory Calvin was hit by a car," Shane reveals to her as she gasps back in shock. "It was a long, complicated procedure. I have to go monitor his vitals."

"Jacob told me that I was suspended again," Stephanie stops him from leaving his office. "Is that true? And if so, why did I hear that from your son and not you."

"It is true," Shane sighs back to her. "I was going to tell you today, actually. But as I just mentioned, I've been in surgery."

"But why?" she asks in confusion. "You just lifted my suspension. Why would you suspend me again?"

"Honestly, Stephanie?" Shane asks her as she nods back to him. "You've been lying to everyone since you got this job. You've been lying to me, you've been lying to your peers, and you've been lying to your patients."

"Lying? About what?"

"About who you really are," Shane tells her. "I know, Stephanie. I know that you're trans. Now, I don't care about that, but you should have disclosed that information, especially to your patients. They have a right to know who is advising them and they could, potentially, ask for a different doctor as a result."

Stephanie feels her heart sink in her chest. "But…"

"I am sorry Stephanie, you're a great doctor, but your lies have consequences. Like I said, you are suspended," Shane informs her. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go check on Cory."

***

In another hospital room, Brandy paces back and forth as she waits for Ivy to arrive. She had received a text message from the nurse stating that she will help her with her plan to use Ivy's child to pass it off has Victoria and Jeff's child that she miscarried. Brandy knows that there is still a lot of work to be done, because they have to ensure no one realizes that Ivy will be passing off as Brandy during some medical appointments.

"Sorry, I got here as soon as I could," Ivy says as she moves into the hospital room. "I've had a morning."

"What happened?" Brandy asks with an arched eyebrow.

"I was almost mugged," Ivy reveals to her as Brandy looks back at her in surprise. "But a nice man saved me."

"Mugged? By who?"

"A guy that had been stalking me," Ivy admits to her. "But he's in jail now, so it's all okay."

"Are you sure you're okay?"

"I'm fine," Ivy tells her.

"Okay, take care of yourself," Brandy says. "We need to ensure that you, and the baby, are healthy. By the way, thank you for agreeing to help me with this plan."

"I'm doing it for the money," Ivy informs her. "And I am not ready to be a single mother."

"Then it's a win-win situation," Brandy purses her lips together. "Now, we have a lot of work to do because Jeff will want to be with me during medical appointments. Only, it's going to be you in my place."

"How will we accomplish that?" Ivy asks her. "I mean, we look similar, but we are not the same."

"Leave that to me," Brandy smiles with a twinkle in her eye. "I have a plan."

The Tower's; Floor One; Andy & Logan's Home

"Are you sure that you're okay?" Andy asks Logan, who is sitting on the sofa in the living room of the condo that they live in together. Andy is still concerned about Logan, who had fallen off a bike.

"I'm fine," Logan nods back to him. "A little sore, but like Jarrod said, I will be fine in a few days."

In the back of Logan's mind, he doesn't understand how he fell off a bike. But he has no reason to think that Jarrod is lying to him; what he is more concerned about is that he doesn't remember anything that happened. Jarrod told him that it's common for that and his memory should come back soon. In the meantime, Jarrod encouraged him to just go along with his story, which Logan is fine to do.

Before Andy can respond to him, there is a knock on the door. Andy gets up and opens the front door. He sighs heavily when he sees Jeff and Meggan standing there.

"Oh Lord, if you two are here to cause more issues," Andy sighs to them heavily.

"We just want to talk to Logan," Jeff explains to Andy as they move into the foyer and into the living room.

"Logan, what happened to you?" a concerned Meggan asks her son, as she can see his of his cuts and bruises.

"I'm fine," Logan stands up and calms her down. "I had a biking accident, but I will be fine a few days."

"Are you sure?" Jeff asks his son, who nods back to him.

"I promise you that I'm good," Logan insists back to them. "So, what's up? What did you have to tell me?"

"It's Jeff's news, so I will let your father explain."

"Uh, okay?" Logan looks back at Jeff.

"You know that Victoria and I are engaged," Jeff begins as Logan nods back to him. "Well, there's more. She's pregnant, Logan. I'm going to be a father and you're going to be a brother," he reveals as Logan's mouth opens wider in surprise.

The Sugarbowl

Jarrod grabs his coffee from the barista and moves to the back booth of the coffeehouse. He needs the caffeine as his mind is racing about the car accident and how he is trying to ensure that Logan doesn't get in trouble. In his mind, he is to blame for this accident because he was helping Jarrod at the time of the accident.

"So far, everyone is believing the story of the bike accident," Jarrod whispers to himself. "But I have to do something with Logan's car. I need to get rid of it."

He, then, gets an idea. He pulls out his phone and dials a number. "Nicholas, hi, It's Jarrod," he says into his phone. "I'm fine, thanks. But I need your help with something. And it's urgent."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"Are either of you able to give me any details about Cory's hit and run?" Sergio asks Robin and Sophie as they face each other in the waiting room of the hospital.

"I really don't know anything," Sophie admits to the police detective. "I just got a call this morning from Robin that my Dad was coming to the hospital. I don't know any other details."

"Okay, that's fair," Sergio nods back to her. "How about you, Robin?"

Robin sighs back to him. "Cory and I were talking this morning," she explains to him. "Well, to be honest, we were fighting. Cory left in a huff and said he wanted to get some air. The next thing I knew, I was getting a call from the hospital saying that Cory was hit by car. I don't know anything else."

Sergio nods back to him. "But detective," Sophie looks at him with intent. "Please find out who did this to my Dad. Please find out who left him there to die and make them pay."
