truth...the truth
being that Olivia KNOWS who the woman is that Cole slept with. Olivia and
Cole are
relieved to realize that Caitlin still doesn't know Olivia is the other
woman, but that she thinks Olivia knows who the woman is. Olivia says it's
best that she doesn't know the truth, Caitlin demands to know. Cole says
fine, he'll tell her the name of the woman in exchange that she'll never
dwell on it again and that she'll never throw it in his face when something
goes wrong in their relationship. Caitlin told Cole that she can't make
that promise unless she knows the woman's name. Cole says it can't
work that way. He can't keep his part of the deal if this may cause their
love to end. Caitlin gives in, saying if Cole is willing to forget about the
past and move on...than so is she. Caitlin leaves to run an errand...Cole
stays behind to talk to Olivia. Cole says he needs something cleared
up...Olivia jumps in and told him the only reason Caitlin trusts him is
because he's a major con-artist. Cole says he loves Caitlin, but he had to
make her choose their love over the truth because she can't know the real
truth. Olivia says maybe it's better that she does...Cole told Olivia if
she did find out, it would only make Caitlin realize that Cole could be
Olivia's baby's father too...by the way, he asks how far along is she...

and says having a baby is really expensive, but he can handle it. Gregory
confronts Olivia saying that she told Cole about the fake pregnancy. Olivia
explains that she only told Cole that he pushed her to make sure Caitlin
doesn't announce her pregnancy in the "festivities" this evening. If she
does, and something went wrong, Caitlin will feel horrible for not waiting
till her pregnancy is safe. Gregory thanks Olivia for being so brilliant.
As Olivia is getting ready for tonight's dinner...Gregory has Olivia put on

think she really were pregnant.

he was her dream man, but she was wrong. Ben kisses Meg, Meg then pulls
away. Ben told her he knows by that kiss that she loves him. Meg calls Ben
