Holdenville, Oklahoma

"Well, look at you, walking around and looking like a million bucks!" Penny chuckles as she opens the door to her barn and sees Cory slowly moving around the space. She knows that he has been confided to the bed that she made for him since she saved him from the site of the plane crash, so to see him up and about makes Penny happy as it must mean that he is slowly regaining his strength.

Cory turns around and see the farm maid behind him. "Penny, hi," he replies to her. "I was tired of just laying there so I decided to get up and see if I could walk around. The first steps were a bit touch and go, but here I am."

"Do you need me to help you?" she asks him as she moves closer to him.

"I think I'm good, actually. But thank you, you have been a lifesaver."

"I just did what anyone would do," Penny replies to him. "I just thank God that I saw the plane go down; otherwise, who knows what would have happened."

"I guess it was meant to be then, a twist of fate if you will."

"I am really happy that you're good progress," she moves closer to him. "But have you had any luck with your memories?"

Cory shrugs back to her. "No, everything is still fuzzy. I don't have any memories yet."

"Don't rush it," Penny replies to him. "Like I said, you've been through a very traumatic experience; your body might just need rest and when that happens, your memories should return. At least, that is what I am hoping for!"

"For your lips to God's ears," Cory nods back to her, hoping that in time, his memory does return.

The Calimo Mansion

Antonio moves to the back of the living room in the Calimo mansion as Cassie just interrupted by end of the wedding ceremony between Isabelle and Jacob. While Antonio wants to know what is going on, he is determined to reach out to Robin to see how she is doing as he knows that she has been devastated by Cory's death. That being said, he doesn't have any negative feelings about the fact that he was the one that arranged for Cory's plane to crash; he continues to believe that without Cory in the picture, he and Robin would have a future together. He just has to keep pressing her and she will come around.

"Hey, just checking in," he writes in a text message to Robin. "How are you doing, beautiful? The wedding just happened; Isabelle looked stunning."

He presses send and sees three bubbles on the bottom of the screen as Robin is responding. "Thanks for checking on me, I am okay … still very sad but one day at a time. Glad the wedding was a success, xo."

He sighs to himself as he reads the message, realizing that Robin is still keeping him at arms length. "I will get through to you," he whispers to himself. "I haven't killed a man for nothing."

***

Meanwhile, at the altar in the living room, Cassie looks back at Jacob in horror as Natasha just revealed that he married Isabelle. She had hoped that she would get the mansion in time to stop the wedding; the fact that she was 5 minutes later is stunning to her.

"Please tell me that you didn't marry her," Cassie pleads with Jacob as tears fill her eyes. "Tell me that it's not true."

Jacob leaves Isabelle's side and moves to Cassie and looks back at her. "I married Isabelle," he nods back to her in a quiet voice. "This isn't the time nor place for a scene."

"You don't understand!" Cassie replies to him quickly. "I figured out the truth! I knew that something was going on and I finally put it all together."

"Put what all together? What are you talking about?" Isabelle asks as she moves down to stand next to her new husband.

Before Cassie can respond, Shane pushes Natasha's wheelchair closer to the trio. "This is enough Cassie," Natasha spits back at her. "This is a wedding, you can leave now! You're not welcome here!"

Cassie glares back at her and then starts to chuckle. "Oh this is too rich," Cassie shakes her head back to her. "You're the reason this wedding happened, isn't it, Natasha? You're stupid dying wish!"

"I wanted my son to be happy and now he is," Natasha replies to her.

"The funny thing is," Cassie looks at Jacob. "Is that you fell for your mother's wish, hook, line, and sinker."

"What are you talking about? My mother's wish was for me to be with Isabelle?" Jacob replies to her.

"Here's the truth," Cassie tells him before she looks at Natasha. "This bitch isn't sick at all!"

"What are you talking about?" a stunned Sophie comes up to the group, having heard Cassie's revelation.

"Thanks to you, Sophie, I put this all together," Cassie explains as a stunned Natasha looks at her daughter. "You see, I broke into Shane's office at the hospital and looked at Natasha's file; there's no record of the illness that she claims to have. Why would that be?"

"My file is private, you're going to jail!" Natasha hisses back to her, trying to cover her tracks.

"And you've been sleeping with Shane," Cassie cuts her off as Jacob and Isabelle look at Natasha in shock. "Why would a dying woman be sleeping with her doctor? Because, she's not dying! This was all scheme to keep you and I apart," Cassie turns to Jacob, who glares back at Natasha.

"Is this true?" a stunned Jacob asks Natasha.

"It is," Natasha stands up and looks at Cassie. "And now, there's nothing you can do, Cassie. Jacob is married, you're out of his life forever!"

Cassie slaps Natasha hard across the face, which causes Jacob and Sophie to come between the women. "You bitch!" Natasha hisses back to her.

"Enough!' Jacob yells as he looks at his mother. "You did this? You really did this? Answer me, Mom! Is what Cassie said true?" he yells at her as Natasha gulps heavily back to him.

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"Everything has been finalized," Robbie informs Madeline and Greg as they stand near the door of hospital room where Kim is still recovering from her gunshot wounds. Robbie makes eye contact with Madeline and can see that her she has tears in her eyes as he just informed her that their marriage has been annulled because he wants to marry Kim before she passes away as the doctors don't believe she has much longer to live.

"Your divorced from Madeline then?" Greg asks him in a whisper. "So, you're going to marry Kim?"

Robbie uneasily nods back to him. "I know that this isn't ideal but I believe it is what Kim would want," Robbie replies to him. "She would want us to be together for however much time she has left."

"I don't know that I can stay for the ceremony," Madeline admits to him. "This is all too painful for me."

"Hey, remember what I said," Robbie looks into her eyes. "I will come back to you after Kim has left us. We just don't know when that would be."

Madeline lets a tear fall down her cheek as she leaves the room, just as Andy moves inside with the priest behind him.

"Father Ashford is here and ready if you are," Andy tells him as he looks at Robbie and then over a Greg.

"Let's begin," the father says as he moves up to Robbie. "It looks like Kim is awake now."

Robbie looks back at Greg, who runs his hand through his hair. "You have to know that this is what Kim would want," Robbie tells Greg before he starts to walk to the bed, where he sees Kim. "Hey, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

"Tired," Kim replies to him. "Thanks forrr beinggg hereee."

"I have a surprise for you," Robbie says with a smile on his face. "You and I, we are going to get married."

Kim looks back at in him in surprise. "Howww isss that possible?"

"Don't worry about that," Robbie replies to her quickly. "Are you up to it? Do you want to be my wife?"

Kim lets a tear fall down her cheek as she looks back at Robbie. "More thannnn anythinnnng else."

Hearing Kim's response sends chills down Greg's spin, so he leaves the room quickly as he can't stomach the thought of his fiancé marrying her ex-husband, the man that she never truly got over.

"Given the circumstances, we will skip the vows and move right into the rings, if that's okay?" the father asks Robbie.

"I think that's for the best, considering how weak Kim is feeling," he replies to her.

"Alright, Kim, please repeat after me," the father looks down at Kim. "With this ring, I thee wed."

"Withhhh thisss ring, I theee wed," Kim says with her eyes half closed and Robbie slides his ring on his own finger.

"And Robbie, please repeat after me," the father says back to Robbie. "With this ring, I three wed."

"With this ring, I thee wed," Robbie says as he looks into Kim's eyes and slides a ring on her finger.

"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you as husband and wife," the father says as Robbie leans up and softly kisses Kim's lips.

He looks into her eyes. "I love you," he whispers to her. "And now you will spend the rest of your life with me as your husband."

Another tear falls down Kim's cheek as she nods back to him. "I loooooveeeee you Robbie," Kim replies to him, as Greg and Madeline stand at the window of the hospital room watching the wedding unfold, wondering if they have lost their respective spouses forever.

The Black House; Helen & Dawn's Home

Adam gulps heavily as he stands in the treehouse that is in the backyard of the Black house, where he and Helen raised Dawn. He realized that Dale was likely holding Helen hostage there, and sure enough, he was right. Helen, who is still tied to a chair inside the treehouse, made a noise when she saw Adam climbing up the ladder and this altered Dale, who has now pulled a gun on Adam.

"Dale, come on, you don't think that you can actually shoot both me and Helen and get away with it, do you?" Adam asks him nervously as the gun barrel looks him in the face. "Especially since Simona Lopez already knows that you're the one that hit Dawn with your car! This is going to end, and its going to end now!"

Dale chuckles back to him. "If the police know that I hit Dawn, what do I have to lose?" Dale asks him. "Nothing! I have nothing to lose. The only thing I have left is to make you both pay for taking my daughter away from me all those years ago!"

"Dawn could still die," Adam reminds him, thinking that Dawn is actually doing better but he doesn't need to know that. "Isn't that revenge enough? An eye for an eye?"

"No," Dale yells back to him. "You and Helen, you have no idea the hell I went through when Mallory died! It's time that you both pay for what you did to my daughter!"

"Let me ask you a question," Adam says as he tries to move closer to Dale. "Did you purposely seek Helen out in Cancun? Was this a part of your plan the entire time?"

"No," Dale shakes his head back to him. "But once I realized that the woman I slept with in Mexico killed my daughter, I knew that I had to carry out a plan of revenge. Hitting Dawn with my car; that was never part of the plan, but it sure worked out well, didn't it?"

"She could have died you son of a bitch," Adam grits his teeth back to him.

"I just wish I had killed her!" Dale yells back to him.

Adam grunts loudly as he flies into the air and tackles Dale to the ground! Helen tries to scream but she has the gag over her mouth. The men continue to fight, and Dale loses control of the gun.

He crawls on top of Adam and punches his face quickly though. Adam turns his head to the side while blood gushes out of his nose. Dale, then, moves to reach for the gun and Adam leaps towards him again. This time, however, Dale is pushed towards the exit and he falls out of the treehouse!

Adam rushes to the opening and sees Dale's crumpled body laying on the ground in a pool of blood. He immediately closes his eyes and thinks back to all those years ago when Mallory died in the exact same way. He opens his eyes and breathes a sigh of relief. He turns when he hears Helen, so he rushes over to his ex-wife and removes the gag from her mouth.

"Oh my God," she cries as Adam unties her. "Is he okay?"

"He's dead," Adam replies to her as he finishes untying her and they hug one another. "It's over; the nightmare, it's finally over."

The Robertson House; Leah & Paige's Home

"I guess that is an interesting point," Jeff chuckles over to Leah as they sit next to one another on the sofa in the house that they shared when they were married. Jeff takes a sip of his wine as he recalls how Leah just told him that maybe Meggan declined his marriage proposal is because of his connection to his ex-wife. "That the reason Meggan turned down my proposal is because of our connection."

Leah locks eyes with him and finds herself nodding back to him. "I mean, it makes sense, right? We have a connection Jeff, we have a history and moreover, we have children."

Jeff gets a smile on his face. "Paige is such a beautiful young woman," he tells Leah. "It's just… it's normal to long to have our boys in our lives."

"There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of Noah," Leah admits to him. "Our baby boy was taken too early from us. And then there's our other son, whom we might never find."

"I have to believe that we will find him," Jeff tells her. "We haven't come this far to give up hope now."

"You're right, and it's why I haven't given up on love or hope either. Together, we can do anything."

"You mean that, don't you?"

"Of course I do," she purses her lips together. "We proved that the night Meggan was in Mexico and we, uh, reconnected."

"That was magical."

"It's our connection," she tells him as they lock eyes again. "No matter what, we find our way back to each other."

Jeff leans over and kisses her on the lips. When they part, they smile before they kiss again, this time more passionately then last time.

The Bellagio Hotel & Casino; Las Vegas, Nevada

Paige emerges from the washroom of the suite that she is staying in with Ethan wearing a simple white dress. She clears her throat to get Ethan's attention, who is laying on one of the beds looking at his phone. He looks over at her and gets a smile on his face at the sight of her.

"Wow, you look incredible," he tells her. "You're beautiful."

Paige giggles back to him. "You think it will be suitable enough for us to get married in?"

He looks back at her in surprise as he recalls when they were at the pool earlier in the day and Paige suggested that they get married since they were in Vegas; she kissed him and told him that it would be a good way for him to get over his feelings for Abby. Now, she is standing in front of him in a simple white dress. "You were serious? You want to get married?"

Paige shrugs her shoulders back to him. "We are in Vegas, isn't that what people do in Vegas?" she asks him quickly. "And, I did see an Elvis impersonator downstairs in one of the chapels."

Ethan shakes his head back to her in surprise. "You are really full of surprises, aren't you?"

"You have no idea," she winks back to him as she moves up to him, kisses him, and then grabs his hand to drag him towards the door, as they start to laugh together.

The Calimo Cabin

Eva and Victoria look at one another in shock as Bryce just revealed that in the file that he is reading that they stole from Frederick at Raven's Meadow has indicated what his real name and who Jeff and Leah's long-lost child is. Bryce had been quiet while Will was complaining that he felt like they weren't getting anywhere with the file review, until Bryce just made this announcement. Victoria recalls having heard that Leah had a long-lost child when she was in Santa Barbara all those years ago, but she never thought that Frederick would have known the truth, but it makes sense that he would have known since he was keeping Leah there.

"I didn't even know that Leah had a child when she was in Santa Barbara," Will looks over at Bryce. "She must have been pregnant then when the explosion happened."

"Yes, she was," Victoria nods to the group. "I remember her finding out that she gave birth there because she kept having dreams of hearing a baby cry. I think, the last, I heard was that she uncovered that she had a son."

"She did," Bryce nods back to her as his eyes look up from the file. "The name of her child is right here."

"What does it say? What is the name of Leah and Jeff's child?" Eva asks him quickly.

Meanwhile, Leah and Jeff are in the Robertson house in the master bedroom and they are engaged in making love to one another …. While in Las Vegas, Paige and Ethan stand at the altar with an Elvis impersonator pronouncing them husband and wife …

"It says," Bryce looks up at the group at the Calimo cabin. "Leah's son's name is Ethan Alexander…"

Will, Eva and Victoria look at one another as the wonder who Ethan is. Victoria then looks back at her husband. "And what does it say your name is?"

"Noah," Bryce stuns them as Eva gasps back to him. "It says my biological name is Noah Claus."
