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

"Andy please," Nicholas pleads with the drunken man in front of him, who is placing the gun in his hand closer and closer to his head. "You don't have to do this. You don't have to shoot yourself to be with Reese; I can explain everything!"

"You can't explain shit," Andy continues to slur his words together. "You have no idea what I have been through the last few months! Seeing my dead husband has lead me back to whiskey," Andy says as he takes another swig of the booze. "This all started when I moved into that damn mansion!"

"I know," Nicholas gets tears in his eyes at the sight in front of him. "But, Andy, I know why you've seen Reese and it's not what you think. So, please put the gun down, and we can talk?"

Andy shakes his head back to him. "No," he whispers back to him. "The time for talking is over. I am ready to go and see Reese again."

Andy moves the gun closer to his head causing Nicholas to act on impulse. He leaps towards Andy and tackles him to the ground! "Stop this Andy!" Nicholas says as Andy starts to fight back to him.

"Get off me! Get off me!" Andy yells as he drops the whiskey and it starts to spill everywhere on the ground while the two men continue to wrestle for control of the gun.

Twin Peaks General Hospital

Victoria slowly moves up to the hospital room door where she can see the Victors twin laying in his bed. She had heard that he woke up, and that he is claiming to be Brett. Victoria knew that she had to come see him because she thought she would be able to tell if it was actually Vinny or not; she knows that she has been beating herself up for trusting Vinny again. She still can't believe that she moved into his mansion and the entire time he was holding Daisy and Brett hostage.

She opens the door which causes Brett to look over at her. "Victoria," he says with a sly grin on his face. "This is a surprise."

"Is it?" she asks him as she crosses her arms over her chest. "You know that everyone is curious about what is going on here considering your brother died in the explosions."

"Daisy told me that Vinny died," he tells her quickly. "But no one knows if I am telling the truth or not. I told her to run another DNA test since there was a mix-up at the lab."

"Shane told me about the confusion at the lab," Victoria admits to him. "So yes, we will do another DNA test and if you're lying about who you are…"

"I'm not lying," Brett protests back to her. "Vinny died in that explosion. I understand why no one believes me but I will do whatever I have too to prove it to everyone."

"You better be telling the truth," Victoria says back to him sternly. "Because if you are Vinny, you will pay for what you've done."

Tyler's Townhouse

"I can't say that I am surprised that the twin is claiming to be Brett," Tyler tells Daisy as they sit next to one another on the sofa in Tyler's townhouse. She just finished telling him that she went to see the person who woke up from their coma and he claimed to be Brett. "Vinny would be in hot water if he was alive, so I would also claim I'm Brett."

"Do you think he's lying?" Daisy asks him as she looks back at him in concern. The last thing she wants to find out that Vinny is alive and well; after everything that he did to, she hopes that he is dead and paying the price in hell.

"Vinny held you and Brett hostage for months," Tyler replies to her quickly. "I don't trust anything he says or does. He has proven himself to be unstable."

"Good point," Daisy purses her lips together. "Anyways, enough of that. I don't want to waste anymore of my energy thinking about the Victors twins."

Tyler chuckles back to her. "I am still thanking God that you are here with me. It still feels surreal; I thought you were lost to me forever for months."

"I know," Daisy grabs his hand back. "But I'm here now, Tyler, and I'm not leaving you. Not ever again."

Tyler leans in and kisses her passionately. "I want to show you how much you mean to me," he tells her in-between kisses.

For a brief moment, Daisy imagines Brett kissing her since they made love while trapped together. She opens her eyes and sees Tyler in front of her and realizes that she has to get Brett out of her head.

"Are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost," Tyler looks back at her.

"I'm fine," she replies to him. "It's just been a long time for me."

"We don't have too if you're not ready."

"I'm ready," she kisses him back. "Just go slow, okay?"

The Sugarbowl

"So your Dad is home and doing well?" Shelley asks Dawn as they sit together in the back booth of the coffeehouse. Shelley knows that Dawn has been worried about Adam since he was involved in the car accident with Chris; luckily, however, Adam was discharged and is back at home living with Helen.

"He still has short-term memory loss," Dawn takes a sip of her latte. "But the doctors say that it is normal and his memory will return eventually."

"It could have been far worse," Shelley nods back to her. "I still can't believe that I let Chris Michaels leave my bar in the state. I should have known better."

"You didn't do anything wrong," Dawn replies to her quickly. "Chris is to blame. And, he was arrested so he will get punished for what he did to my Dad."

"Have you heard from Cheresa?"

"No," Dawn looks back at her quickly. "Why would I have heard from Cheresa?"

Shelley shrugs her shoulders back to her. "Her Dad was involved in the accident too," Shelley tells her. "And, I know she was worried about you. Just curious if she reached out or not."

Dawn shakes her head back to her friend. "I haven't heard from Cheresa and after everything I did to break her trust, I don't think I will hear from her again for a very long time."

The Pampa Grill

"I heard that Chris was arrested," Andrew tells Albertinah as he approaches her table. As soon as he walked into the restaurant, he saw his lover and walked over to her table. He can't imagine how she is doing knowing that her brother was arrested for impaired driving that caused the accident between Chris and Adam. Andrew just hopes that Albertinah is holding up okay. "How are you doing?"

Albertinah shrugs back to him. "I'm not surprised," she reveals to him. "I knew this was coming."

"Doesn't mean it's any less painful," Andrew replies to her. "Come on Albertinah, after what we just shared the other day, you can be honest with me. It's clear that we still have something between us."

"I liked very much what happened between us," she admits to him as she looks him in the eye. "I'm just worried about what us being together will mean for everyone around us."

"I don't care," Andrew shakes his head back to her. "If anyone doesn't support us, that's on them. I'm doing what is best for me for a change."

Albertinah chuckles back to him. "I like the way you think," she says as she puts her hand on his chest and looks into his eyes.

At the entry way of the restaurant, a very pregnant Abby slowly moves inside and freezes when she sees Albertinah and Andrew together. She feels her heart move into her throat at the sight. She had no idea that Albertinah was back in town but seeing them together, and how close they clearly are, Abby immediately knows that she has lost Andrew all over again.

"If I ever had you in the first place," she says as tears fill her eyes at the sight unfolding in front of her.

At the back table, Jeff picks up his beer and takes a long sip of it. He thinks about how recently he has been told to stay away from the women that have been in his life for years; first Cory, told him to stay away from Leah; then, Lukas told him to stay away from Meggan. While Jeff knows that there has been some drama in the past, all he really wants is to be happy again.

He notices Meggan walking into the restaurant and wonders if she would join him. When they were together the previous day, Jeff thought that they shared a nice moment together. Meggan even invited him to spend time with Logan together, which is something he would love. He finds himself waving her down and she smiles to him as she approaches the table.

"Another day and we are together at the Pampa Grill," Meggan chuckles as she sits across from him. "If we aren't careful, people will start talking."

Jeff laughs back with her. "I say, let them talk," he winks back to her. "You look beautiful tonight."

"Really?" she asks him with a sly grin on her face. "I have been working all day and wanted some food before I headed home. I don't think I look that great."

"Ah, beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

"What's gotten into you lately?" she asks him as she takes a sip of her water. "You seem … I don't know, different?"

"Honestly," Jeff leans forward and looks into her eyes. "I just feel like I've put everything behind me and I want to start fresh, you know? Like, nothing else matters but living in the moment."

"That's not a bad thing at all," she replies to him. "It's good to let go of the past and move on."

"You really think so?"

"Of course I do."

"Then, I'm going to do that," he says as he leans over and kisses her on the lips. It only lasts for a moment but they look at each other once their lips part. "See, that's me, living in the moment."

Meggan blushes back to him. "You're crazy, you know that?"

"The best ones always are," he winks back to her.

***

Natasha moves into the restaurant and looks for a table. When she scans the restaurant, however, she happens to see Eva sitting alone at the bar. She takes a deep breath as she wonders if her mother is in a better place today; the last time she saw Eva, she was lashing out at Natasha because Cassie had revealed that Kim hired Will to seduce Eva, and Natasha knew the entire time. Natasha understands why Eva was so furious with her but she wishes that her mother would understand that she actually had no part in it at all.

Natasha slowly moves up to her mother, hoping that she has come to her senses and will no longer want her out of Eva's life. "Mom, hi," Natasha says softly. "I saw you when I walked in and had to come say hi."

Eva sets her martini glass down and turns to glare to her daughter. "What part of you are no longer in my life didn't you understand, Natasha? I really don't want to have this conversation in a restaurant."

"I know what you said," Natasha looks her in the eyes. "I guess I had hoped that once you had some time to cool down…"

"You knew that Kim hired a man to sleep with me and you didn't tell me!" Eva hisses back to her daughter. "That is not something I will ever get over, Natasha! You put your damn company ahead of me. I don't think I will ever look at you the same way as I did before."

Natasha bites her lower lip. "I know that you're mad and angry," Natasha replies to her. "And I understand that completely, but I will not stop loving you and I will not stop wanting my Mom in my life. So, when you finally get over this, you can come find me."

Eva turns back around in her chair and picks up her martini and takes a long sip of it. Natasha watches her for a moment and then rushes out of the restaurant, clearly not interested in ordering anything after her encounter with her mother.

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

Nicholas and Andy continue to wrestle on the floor for control of the gun that Andy has. Nicholas is desperate to get the weapon away from Andy because he is drunk and is talking about shooting himself so he can be with Reese again. He is scared Andy will actually hurt himself because of his mother's plan to gaslight him.

"Andy, please stop!" Nicholas yells as they continue to fight for control of the gun. "I have to tell you what is going on here, there's more to this story than you know!"

"I don't care what you have to say," Andy yells back to him. "Reese was calling me, it's time I go with to be with my husband."

Suddenly Nicholas and Andy freeze at the same time when the gun goes off! A single bullet is shot and blood starts pouring on the ground between the two men.
