GARY and JOSIE'S APARTMENT/STATIONHOUSE:
Gary has Josie playfully type out a letter about how much he loves her and how much he wants to marry her. She was very excited, thinking that he now agrees with her that they get married soon. He asks her to sign his name and Josie realizes this also had to do with nailing Grant because Gary points out that she signed his name right under the letter where Cindy supposedly signed her name way down at the bottom of the page. They agree to send the letter to forensics for further tests but Gary assures Josie what he said in the letter was genuine. Later, at the stationhouse, Gary lies to Joe and says that he has no new info on Gabe's murder. He told Josie that he won't go to him until they have hard evidence. The officers, especially Joe, also have another confrontation with Grease Snyder.

He thanks her again and says he's glad they are friends again. Sophia says that she's glad too and she'd do it all again. Grant overhears them and knows Vicky and the boys are back.

Alli and Amanda arrive and Alli tries to cheer him up telling him he needs to take care of himself so they can get married when she grows up. Amanda tries to take his mind off what's upseting him by talking about work but he asks to be left alone. Later, Jake leans over the rail when he hears Vicky call his name.
Sophia asks Matt to make love to her. He was reluctant because she was moving so
fast but she told him she's been dreaming about him and wants to be with
him NOW. He told her he wants her first time to be special and he's
distracted at the moment so he suggests she go put on her most romantic
dress and come back soon. Sophia went home and told Paulina she's sorry
she worried everyone but she had to do it for the boys. Paulina says she
understands and gives Sophia a sexy blue dress to wear for Matt. Later,

home until she finally notices how forlorn, unresponsive and sad Jake is.
She asks what's wrong even though it seems she has an idea and he told her
he saw her kissing Bobby. Vicky tries to deny it was a big deal but Jake
sadly announces he has to let her go even though he hasn't stopped loving
her a bit. (This was a very emotional and sad scene and my account does it
no justice - sorry.)

Grant says he has custody of Kirkland and Donna says she'll kill him before
she lets him take Kirk away from Vicky. She calls Joe while Bobby gets in

asks if he wants to come home with him. Steven reminds him not to lie and
the little boy apologizes to his dad but says he wants to stay where he is.
Grant was forced reluctantly to leave. vicky arrives and was furious to know
Grant tried to take Kirk. Joe asks if they have any concrete evidence about
Grant being behind the bombing, saying Bobby's tesitmony of henchmen looking
for bodies isn't enough. Vicky asks who else Grant has to kill before Joe
will listen. Later, Kirkland was sad that he hurt Grant's feelings but vicky
says she loves him very much and was very proud of him.
GRANT/AMANDA:
Amanda finds Grant brooding on the docks. He rages about how unselfish he
was tonight for his son's sake but he'll never get any credit from Vicky and

sees one and leaves a tape recorder with Grant. After looking at a pic of
Kirkland, Grant picks up the recorder.
JAKE/ALLI/AMANDA:
Jake arrives to return Alli's scarf and Alli coyly asks him if he thinks she
might have left it on purpose. She asks him to stay for dinner and he

good idea if Jake stays but Alli reminds her that they haven't had a man to
dinner for a long time. When Alli went to check on dinner, Amanda reminds
Jake he's Alli's friend, not hers.
Vicky and Bobby try to figure out what to do now that their relationship has
changed. She told him that Jake saw them kiss and Bobby feels pretty bad.
Its pretty cute because they act like kids with a crush. Bobby suggests he move
out and Vicky agrees. He told her that he'll get someone else to finish
her house and she says she'll miss him. Bobby gets ready to leave
reluctantly and then he grabs her and kisses her. They break off the kiss,
smiling and then kiss again before he leaves. Alone, Vicky picks up Ryan's
picture and starts talking to it, then she realizes she doesn't need the
picture to talk to him. Vicky thanks him for sending her back to her kids
and for loving her so much. She then tenderly looks at the picture one last
time and places it in her chest of treasures. Later, Bobby finds Grant
looking outside Vicky's house and almost chokes him. Bobby told Grant that
he won't let him get to Vicky and then sleeps out on the porch.
JOSIE/GARY/JOE/CHRIS:
At bowling night, Tibbs rushes in and announces forensics think Gary was
right about Cindy's letter -- that it was typed after it was signed. Joe is
furious the info was kept from him and Gary angrily reminds him that he is
in charge of the task force and Joe specifically told him to bring HARD
evidence. Joe leaves in a huff and the other officers grumble about Joe's
attitude. Chris overhears it all and asks if there was dissension at the
station. Josie says no and asks Chris not to hurt the investigation by
printing a story about what happened. Gary leaves angrily too and later
comes back to apologize to Josie. He presents her with some fixings for a
bubble bath.
SOPHIA/MATT:
Sophia told Matt about her fight with Joe and asks if she can move in and
if they can make love. He told her they are moving too fast and wants to
wait for the lovemaking until she was not so upset. He told her that she

about Nick and HIM making love to her. She angrily told herself to get
over it and went to sleep. Matt returned and lays down next to her when
Sophia mumbles Nick's name in her sleep.

Amanda and Jake continue to bicker about how she was covering the stories on
Grant and Paulina comes in to bring some peace. Amanda takes a call from
Rachel and while she's gone Jake told Paulina he's given up on Vicky and
that he threw her engagement ring in the river. Paulina told him not to
give up and later told Jake her concerns about her weight. Jake told her
he thinks she's gorgeous and he'll kill Joe if he's made her feel bad. A
very sweet scene betwee the two of them. Later, Jake told Alli a story
while Amanda listens in the background, touched at how well Jake gets along
with Alli. In the story the prince and princess fall in love and are happy.

too good at happy ever after. Later, at home Paulina won't let Joe see her
without any clothes on.

he was going to leave her. She asks if she's done something wrong and he
says no but that they can't live together. He told her of some apartments
at Bayview Court. Later, Nick went to talk to Joe about not being too hard
on Sophia. Nick reminds him that Sophia was running Joe now and not him. He
runs into Sophia later at the hospital and was pleased to hear she was moving
in with Emily, not Matt and accepts Emily's invitation as their first
houseguest (Sophia seems a little upset by that).
JOSIE/GARY/JOE/JAKE:
Josie and Gary bring Jake in for jumping bail but he says he has proof he
was set up. He shows them that someone was using his credit card while he
was in jail. They are skeptical at first and it looks like Gary and Joe are
going to have another confrontation about Grant when Joe changes tactic and
says that they are going to make Grant believe they are still prosecuting
Grant so he'll slip up. They are all glad that Joe was now cooperating.
Gary orders that Jake take an allergy test when he mentions he got a rash
after he was mugged. They find out Jake was allergic to latex and Gary says
maybe they drugged him and made a mask of his face. He reminds them of how
freaked out Grant was when Cindy mentioned a mask.
CINDY/GRANT/SHARLENE/TOMAS:
At the hospital, Sharlene told cindy she's being moved into protective
custody and out of the hospital because she's stable. Cindy seems very lucid
and resigned and warns Sharlene that Grant was only close to people to use
them. When Grant finds out Cindy was being moved he tries to find out where
she was going unsuccessfully. He tries to get some info from Tomas who tells
him that while he appreciates the scholarship, he won't do Grant any favors.
When Sharlene went into a storage room for some files she overhears Grant
talking to someone about finding out where Cindy was going and eliminating
the problem. She knocks something over and Grant finds her.
