Sam’s House

Nora brings Sam flowers as a peace offering after their fight. They apologize to each other and hug. Sam tells her to open her present. Nora comments that the necklace matches her earrings. She remembers when Sam gave her the earrings and all the details of Matthew’s birth.

Sam is excited that Nora has her memories back but isn’t pleased that Troy is involved. Nora doesn’t believe that Troy would have given her a drug that would affect her life or her health. She asks Sam if they are making progress or back at square one.

Sam asks if Nora has remembered what Lindsay did to her. Nora doesn’t have all of those memories, but she doesn’t care. Sam is relieved that she is letting it go. They agree to go to dinner at the Country Club.

Blair & Todd’s Mansion

The wedding guests have all left – except Kelly and Cassie. Todd asks if Blair is ready for her surprise. Blair says she doesn’t need a surprise after the beautiful wedding Todd put together. Todd is sure she will want this particular gift. He asks to speak to Blair alone.

Starr warns her dad not to make her mommy angry since she is so happy at the moment. Todd tries to get rid of Kelly, Cassie and Starr so he can talk to Blair. Cassie offers to take Starr for the evening so Blair and Todd can be alone.

Todd is trying to tell Blair about the baby when Cassie interrupts them. Todd storms out.

Starr goes upstairs and discovers the baby. Todd finds her in the baby’s room. She is so excited that her baby brother has returned that she runs out of the room to tell Blair.

Todd catches Starr and makes her promise not to tell Blair about the baby – yet. Todd wants a chance to get Blair used to the idea of a new baby. Starr thinks Blair will be happy and doesn’t understand why they need to keep quiet. Todd convinces her to let him handle it his way.

Cassie comforts Blair about the loss of the baby. Blair thinks it’s her fault because she didn’t tell Todd the truth. Blair admits to Cassie that she still imagines hearing a baby crying. Cassie thinks it is just her way of keeping the baby’s spirit alive. Starr drags Cassie out so her parents can talk.

Todd is trying to work up the courage to tell Blair when she hears the baby crying. Todd takes her upstairs and shows her his ‘wedding present.’ Blair is stunned to see her baby boy. She picks him up and holds him tight as Todd looks on.

The Country Club

Troy asks the waitress if Nora has a reservation for dinner and asks that she be seated near his table. Lindsay joins him to go over the plans for the fundraiser. Troy confesses that he had a dream about Lindsay. She finds that amusing.

Troy imagines telling Nora that he has the proof that Lindsay took away her memories. Nora is ‘very grateful.’ Lindsay brings him back from his delusions and Troy covers by changing the subject back to the fundraiser.

Lindsay excitedly tells Troy the details she has put together for the fundraiser. Troy is overwhelmed by the amount of work Lindsay has done. She tells him she is trying to make up for believing he was Colin. Troy is suspicious – he knows Lindsay doesn’t do anything without an ulterior motive.

Lindsay asks Troy about his necklace. Troy says the necklace can make wishes come true. He takes the necklace off and gives it to Lindsay. Nora spies the two of them together.

The Docks

Keri calls Antonio and leaves him a message. RJ shows up – he has been following her so they can have a chance to talk. RJ wants Keri to know that he did not abandon her and that he wants a chance to get to know her. Keri isn’t sure they can have a relationship, but she came to town to find her father, so she is willing to try. RJ is excited and asks if he can call her tomorrow. Keri agrees and promises not to hang up on him.

St. Blaze Island

Asa hears a knock at the door – it’s Alex. He tries to disguise his voice and pretends to be the ‘Colonel’ so she will leave. Alex is about to burst in when Nigel stops her. He takes her down to the bar to explain all about the ‘Colonel.’ Asa discovers the urn filled with ‘his’ ashes. He uses them to put out his cigar.

Nigel explains that the ‘Colonel’ is really a woman. Alex is horrified. She remembers that she left the ashes outside the room and rushes off to get them. Nigel tries to stop her, but she pushes open the door and screams – she sees the cigar smoldering in the urn. Alex is sure it is a sign from Asa. Nigel tells her to go scatter the ashes on the beach. She leaves and in her rush, spills the ashes. Asa opens his door and spies her trying to gather the ashes. Alex sees Asa’s boot and looks up into his startled face.

Line of the Day

Alex: So you wouldn’t let me have the ‘Captain’ you won’t let me see the ‘Colonel.’ What’s going on here? Is he poor? Is he married? Is he gay? Because that’s really not a problem. What is wrong with him?

Nigel: He’s a woman!
