The Funhouse

Lindsay threatens Troy with the crowbar. He calls her bluff, telling her to use it – he will never tell her where the tape of her confession is, so she might as well kill him. Lindsay can’t do it, but she has another idea. Troy doesn’t think Lindsay would run because of Jen. Lindsay knows her only choice is to find and destroy the tape.

Lindsay tries to figure out where Troy would have hidden the recorder. She thinks it’s in his loft and intends to go get it. Troy reminds her that he locked them in the funhouse, so Lindsay fishes in his pocket to find the key. Troy takes the opportunity to try to get Lindsay to let him go and make a life with him. Lindsay can’t do it. She grabs the key and takes off to find the tape.

Bo’s Office

Antonio tells Keri that he likes having her in his life and he is in love with her. He has no intentions of letting her break up with him. That’s not what Keri wants either. She thinks Antonio is the best thing to ever happen to her and she’s not willing to give him up. Keri understands that Antonio was just doing his job when he raided RJ’s club. She tells Antonio that she is in love with him too. They seal the deal with a kiss.

Keri and Antonio agree to meet back to his place when he finishes his shift. Keri is still curious as to why Antonio was tipped off that there was something illegal going down at RJ’s club. Keri leaves and heads to Capricorn. Antonio makes arrangements for a ‘peace offering’ to be sent to RJ.

Capricorn

Max wonders why RJ is so happy after the cops spoiled his opening night. RJ says it discredited Antonio, so he considers the night a rousing success. Max deduces that RJ is happy because he thinks this will break up Keri and Antonio. RJ doesn’t believe Antonio is good enough for his daughter.

Max figures out that RJ was behind the phony tip that Antonio received. RJ thinks Antonio got what he deserved for trying to embarrass him in front of his daughter. He is sure Keri is dumping Antonio as they speak.

Keri comes by to thank RJ for not pressing charges against the LPD for the botched raid. A package is delivered – a ‘gift’ from Antonio, replacing what he destroyed the night before. Keri is touched by the gesture. RJ invites her to join him for dinner. She declines, saying she has a date. RJ is not amused to find out she is still seeing Antonio.

RJ pretends he is upset about the damage to Capricorn’s reputation because of the raid. Keri still doesn’t understand who would have fed Antonio fake information. Someone who hates me, RJ says. Keri leaves and RJ vows to get even with Antonio.

Llanfair

Roxy interrupts Jessica’s adoption ceremony. Viki warns her that she cannot stop the adoption since Jessica is an adult. Roxy doesn’t want to stop the ceremony; she wants to take pictures. Jessica allows her to stay and Roxy watches as Jessica signs the papers making her an official – legal – Buchanan.

Roxy proposes a toast but Jessica doesn’t want her to drink with her condition. What condition? Viki asks. Ben explains to Viki about the tests he ran on Roxy. Ben assures Viki that it’s not life threatening if she takes care of herself and Jessica is not affected.

Viki realizes that they don’t know anything about Jessica’s medical history – Blair comes to the same realization regarding Jack. She wants to contact Jack’s ‘mother’ and get some information on Jack’s medical background. Todd tries to talk her out of it. Blair insists – just to be on the safe side. Todd puts her off. They wake Starr, who is so bored she fell asleep on the couch, and head home.

Asa makes arrangements to meet Bo down at the station to serve his community service. Asa is happy he will get the opportunity to work with his son.

Cris is having a hard time dealing with Al and Jen. Al sends Jen to get him a drink and goes over to talk to Cris. He tells Cris that Jen was upset when she ran into him at the quarry. Al tells Cris to stay away from Jen from now on. Cris agrees. Al asks Ben to tell Jen he went back to the Carriage House.

Nora asks Jen if she knows how to reach her mother. Jen says her mother didn’t leave a number and she thinks they want to be alone. She also tells Nora her mother was acting very strangely when she dropped by to visit them before they left for Paris.

In the spirit of disclosing medical histories, Viki tells Natalie about her bout with breast cancer. She thanks Natalie for being such a good sport on Jessica’s special day.

Ben reminds Roxy to come back to the clinic for more tests. Roxy asks to speak to Jessica alone and tells her she is not going back to the clinic – she came to say goodbye to Jessica. Jessica tries to stop her from leaving and promises to visit her. Roxy agrees and leaves. On her way out, she runs into Asa, who warns her not to mess with the Buchanans. Natalie delivers the same message before Roxy storms out. She calls Allison and tells her to get ready – Jessica is coming to give them money!

Natalie spies on Seth as he gives Jessica tickets to a concert she wanted to attend. Natalie rushes out of the house as Jen comes in to retrieve her purse.

Bo’s Office

Antonio assures Bo that he will not give up his pursuit of RJ. He is convinced that RJ was behind the phony tip and he knows RJ will screw up again. Antonio will be waiting for him.

The Carriage House

Max calls Al to find out about his good news. Al says he is up for an award at school. He doesn’t tell his father about the feeling in his legs. Al does some research on the web to see what he should do if he feels sensations in his legs. He stands up to test his strength. He remembers Jen’s conversation with Cris and realizes if he gets his mobility back, he loses Jen.

Al is standing in the corner when Natalie storms in and sees him on his feet!

Troy’s Loft

Lindsay is ransacking the place looking for Troy’s tape when she is discovered by Cris…

Line of the Day

RJ (about Antonio): He looks like a dim-witted, jack-booted bully with a badge.
