Late to the party, but OMG, I'm really liking Jordan and Rafe. I actually smiled during their park scene.

All in all, I enjoyed the entire episode.

The only thing that would make me interested in the Rafe/Jorden S/L is if Jorden turns out to be a psycho killer or one of Stefano's robots.

Director: Steven Williford
Scriptwriter: Jeanne Marie Ford


Segment 1: Sami is back at the river's edge. She takes off her jacket and gets down on all fours and starts searching for her earring. Nick surfaces and grabs her hand. Sami screams.

Kate is sitting at her desk in her office. She recalls Nick handing her a flashdrive with the project they talked about. She then remembers him going under water after calling out to Gabi. She fingers the flashdrive. What's this really about Nick?

Jordan holds a chair away from a table in the pub as Rafe walks from his wheelchair to the chair. Abe and Theo come in to the pub. Rafe feels that he just earned himself a double stack. Jordan thought they came her just for a coffee. Theo runs up to their table and gives Rafe a big hug. Abe - Wow, great to see you up and walking again. Hi, Jordan, how are you doing? Jordan - Hi, Mr. Carver. Is this your son? Theo proclaims that they came here for hot chocolate. Jordan thinks that's a good idea. I've never had it here. Is it really as good as they say it is? Theo - It's really good. Come on. They go to order. Abe - Well, she seems ... Rafe - Different? Abe laughs.

Dan is dressed in a suit and tie. There's a knock on his door. It's Maxine. I came by with something you might need today. She hands him a file folder.

Jen is in front of a mirror putting on earrings when JJ comes in the room. He comments that she's looking sharp. What's up? Jen - Today's Daniel's disciplinary hearing. JJ forgot. Are you okay with that? Jen is fine. JJ - So what do you think is going to happen to him; something really bad?

Anne walks up to Theresa at the nurse's station. Momentous day, huh; the potential to be anyway. Theresa - What are you talking about? Anne - Dr. Dan's hearing. It starts any minute. Theresa - I know. Anne - I've got the perfect thing to make it go boom. You wanna play?

Harold informs EJ that breakfast is served. EJ has to skip breakfast this morning. I have to represent the hospital board at some sort of disciplinary hearing; should be scads of fun. Harold - I'll just set one place for Miss Sami then sir. EJ thinks Samantha left a while ago.

Sami struggles with Nick yelling at him to let her go. He calls her a bitch and then pulls her underwater with him.

Dan - What is all of this? Maxine - Letters from all your patients and some of us that work at the hospital. A bunch of us nurses got together and made phone calls. Everyone we contacted said they'd be glad to write a letter about what they thought of Dr. Jonas. They run from you were very helpful to you saved their lives. Dan - This is from ... Maxine - Yeah, I talked to her myself. She sent an email right away. It's a letter from Jen.

Jen - This meeting is mostly a formality. Normally Daniel would give a formal statement and that would be that. JJ - But I don't get it because Dr. Jonas saved Theresa's life. I mean she'd be dead if he hadn't done what he did so why try to punish him? Jen - Since when do you care how this goes for Daniel?

Anne and Theresa go into the meeting room. Anne hands Theresa a piece of paper. Check this out. Theresa - What is it? Anne - A statement. Here's how it's going to go down. Dr. Dan is going to read his statement okay then everyone is going to do the whole okay, we're done here, thanks so much, we're adjourned and that's when you make your entrance. Theresa - I can just walk in? Anne - Don't just walk in. Come in shoulders slumped, maybe a little mascara stain from all the crying ... like an emotional wreck, okay. I want you to read the statement out loud but I want you to make your voice crack a little a few times like this ... I was so ashamed. Theresa - Why was I ashamed. Anne - Read the statement sweetheart. You miraculously recovered all memories of what happened that evening. Theresa reads - Dr. Jonas said he wanted to get high with me. Anne - I had a little wine last night. I let my imagination flow. Just keep reading, it gets way better.

Sami and Nick come up with Sami reaching for the riverbank. Sami is yelling let me go. Nick - You think you're getting away this time Sami. He pushes her underwater. She struggles, comes up for air put he pulls her down. Nick holds her down until she drowns and then he lets go. She floats away. Sami wakes up in bed from her nightmare.


Segment 2: JJ - I don't care what happens to the guy. It just seems like if they're going to punish him for something it should be for hurting you. Jen - That's very sweet. You're right, Daniel did save someone's life and they can hardly call a disciplinary hearing for me getting my feelings hurt. I think you should know they asked me to write a letter on Daniel's behalf and I want you to know that I did. JJ - That must have been kind of hard. JJ - No it wasn't. It's what I had to do. Love you. She leaves.

Dan - Jennifer shouldn't have said this about me. Maxine - Why not? It's true; from the heart. Dan - I've got to get going. He picks up a small stuffed animal. Parker gave it to me for good luck. Maxine - When Parker grows up he's going to be proud. He's got the best dad in the world.

Theresa - What if they ask me questions? Anne - That's okay. Let them but remember your main talking points. Don't say you did drugs with him because Dr. Goody Good came in here and got tested that night but he did push them on you, you got that? Theresa - Yeah. Anne - And he made promises to do drugs with you like, I don't know, the next week. Theresa - Okay. Anne - And don't forget to make the really big point that he was trashing Jennifer. She's boring, total missionary, stiff as a board, kick it up a notch. Say that he told you that he needs just a little bit of pharmaceutical before he gets into bed with her. OMG, if that doesn't send Ms. Bitch running out of the room, nothing will. Have you ever seen her when she gets really embarrassed? Theresa - Anne, you do know that I don't actually remember anything that happened that night, right? Anne - Wonderful! Then the facts won't get confused with what you're saying so just read the statement as written. Theresa - Oh come on, it's obviously all lies. Anne - I'm sorry. You have a problem with that?

Kate is on the phone. This is not a negotiation Mr. Ortiz, you will do this today. No, come here, pick up the receipt, fly to New York, go to the Fairmont Storage facilities on the upper West side. Then you use the ID that says your Nick Fallon to pick up the things that he had sent there. I don't care. Throw them in the Hudson, down a rat hole, whatever. Just let me know when it's done.

Jordan and Theo are at the bar in the pub. Jordan - One of my jobs is to check and see how strong people are. Do you want to see if you can try and push my hand away. Theo - Yeah! He pushes. Jordan tells him he's very strong.

Abe - When I met her a few weeks ago she seemed so reserved; almost impersonal. Rafe - She's opened up with everything. Abe - Well she's got you up and walking again. Rafe - Yeah. I'm kind of like a robot with rundown batteries but I'm getting there thanks to her. Abe - You should know that your job's still waiting for you at the department. Theo and Jordan come back to the table. Theo - We're going exploring. Rafe - Are you! Let me know what you find. Theo - Okay. Abe - So long guys. Jordan says goodbye to them both. They leave. Rafe - That was amazing; the interaction you two had ... I've never seen that before out of you. You're a natural. Have you worked with kids much?

Sami is in front of the mirror in the foyer putting on her earrings when EJ walks in. I thought you left a long time ago. Sami - Why would I? EJ - Because you're driving the children down state on a field trip, remember? Sami - Of course I remember. I know a shortcut and we don't have to be there until later. Anyway, I have to get going. EJ - Why don't you tell me what you're really up to.


Segment 3: JJ is walking through the square when Rory and Bev call out to him. JJ - I've got an early class to get to so I've got to go. Sorry. Bev - Wait. Hold up. How come you haven't answered any of my texts? JJ - My phone has really bad battery life. It's old now. I'm getting a new one soon. Rory - I guess that's why you're not calling me back either. JJ - Yeah, it is. I've really got to go. Rory - What's your class? JJ - History. Rory scoffs - You're playing me. You're the guy who said History is only worth going to if you're totally stoned. He pulls out a bag of weed. So who wants to get ready for class. Bev holds up her hand.

Anne - Listen, it's real simple sweetie. Jennifer is a colossal pain in our asses and I don't care how much she pretends she doesn't care about Danny boy; you bringing him down is going to kill her which is something we've been dying to see, right? Kayla comes in. Theresa, there's a lot of flowcharts you need to put into the computer at the nurse's station. Theresa - Right, I'm on it. Kayla and Theresa walk to the nurse's station. Kayla - I got a text from your Dad when they landed in LA. Theresa - Yeah, Mom texted me and said they had a good flight. Jen gets off the elevator talking on her phone heading to her office. Dan walks by also talking on his cell and heads for the elevator. Theresa thinks.

Rafe - You never answered my question. Jordan - About? Rafe - If you worked with kids much. Jordan - Sure. Teenagers, some very little ones too. Rafe - That must be tough though; seeing them struggle like that. Jordan - It is when they don't understand why but they are almost always upbeat and ready for anything. And when you can help them it is just the greatest feeling. And they just laugh and come alive ... what's so funny. Rafe - Actually, I just like seeing you like this; enthusiastic. Jordan - Alright, enough questions. Time to get you out for some fresh air. It's going to be snowing soon.

Sami - Nothing is going on. I'm just in a rush. EJ - Why? Sami - I have something I have to do then I have to rush back here to take the kids down state. EJ - What exactly is it that you have to do beforehand? Sami - Why all the questions? EJ - Because I'm concerned. You come back last night late, you looked dishevelled, upset; much the same way you are now. Sami - I'm dishevelled? EJ - No, you're upset. Sami - I'm not upset. I'm just rushed. Last night I was upset to come home to find police swarming our house and looking through our things. EJ - I already explained that to you. Sami - Yeah you did and then you told me casually that my brother had stopped by. My brother who's life has been utterly destroyed by that woman you call a sister. Oh right, I forgot, you just forgot that. You decided not to say anything. EJ - Why are you keeping something from me? Sami - Because that's what we do EJ. Face it, it's our speciality. She leaves.

Theo runs ahead to the river's edge. Abe calls out - Not too far ahead son, stay where I can see you. Theo picks up Sami's earring. Pretty! He sticks it in his pocket and goes running to his Dad when Abe calls for him again.


Segment 4: Sami is at the river's edge. She stares at the river. Okay, pull it together. You just have to find that damned earring.

Rory - Okay, let's go to the park, find a spot and do it dude. JJ - No, seriously man, I've got to get to class. I need the grades this semester. Rory tells him to take the position and he pats him down. This guy claims to be JJ Deveraux and okay, he looks like JJ. Bev - I don't know officer, do you think he's an imposter? Rory - Damn straight because if he was JJ he'd want to get high. JJ snaps. Give it a rest. I'm not interested. Bev - What is wrong with you? Rory - Yeah man. Why don't you want to hang out with us? Bev - You're not still freaked out about that thing with your Dad, are you? Rory - Forget about that stuff. Come along with us; it'll be fun. Bev - It's not like we're going to get caught. We'll go up high, like by the rocks; that spot. Rory - Get totally baked and ... JJ - I don't want to get baked and I don't want to be buzzed during class. I don't want to be a loser. Now, is that clear enough!

The meeting is in session. Kayla says if anyone wants to make a remark ... EJ - As counsel for the board after reading the incident reports, frankly, I do not know why we're here. The chairperson tells him the evidence is very thin but once a hearing has been requested the committee has to follow through. Kayla brings Dan in. Dan starts to make his statement.

Maxine sees Theresa standing by the coffee machine. What are you doing over there? Theresa - I was just thinking. Anne interrupts Dan's statement when he gets to part where he says he encountered Theresa Donovan - I would like to know why you were there. The chairperson tells her all questions will wait until his statement is read. Anne - Well I think it's drug related so ... Chairperson - This is my meeting Miss Milbauer, no questions until the statement is read. Dan adds that he is not there to discuss why he was there or anything else of a personal nature. My understanding is that this hearing is about my conduct as a doctor and that's all I'll be testifying to. He continues his statement. At the end of statement he adds - And for the record, as I'm sure I will be asked, I was not under the influence of any drug that evening. Hospital tests performed on the night in question confirm that. Also, I would like these entered into the record. These are 127 letters from patients and staff members attesting to my ability and / or integrity and I deeply appreciate anyone who did this for me. EJ - As I've said from the beginning, I see no reason why a doctor who saved a woman's life should be called before this committee (Anne is busy sending a text as EJ speaks). However, here we are so Dr. Westbrook, do you have a conclusion? Dr. Westbrook - I do but first I'd like to thank you for your testimony Dr. Jonas ... there's a knock on the door. Theresa comes in. I have a statement. It's about Dr. Jonas.

Sami gets up. Oh God, I've got dirt all over me. I could have lost that earring anywhere. How many places was I? Too many. Between carting the kids around, dragging a dead body. I just lost the earring, that's all. I lost it. She gets a text and reads it. Seriously! She stares at the river and recalls the struggle when Nick turned out to be alive after all. She leaves. The camera pans to the monogramed label off of Nick's backpack that's in the shrubs.


Segment 5: Just as Dan had to Theresa states her name and position at the hospital. Theresa unfolds the paper in her hand. This has been a bad year for me. I got involved in drugs and did a lot of things that I regret very much. I know that Dr. Jonas is here because of what happened on October 25th. I want to say to everyone that I'm very sorry that I was the cause of so much trouble. As far as that night goes I don't remember anything about it. All I know is when I woke up the nurse told me that Dr. Jonas saved my life. I will always be grateful to him. That's all I've got to say. Dr. Westbrook - Thank you Miss Donovan. You may leave now. She does. Kayla - Dr. Westbrook, if you could render your decision. Dr. W - Gladly. Anne - Wait just a minute. Can anyone spell whitewash here. Now I have done some investigating on this incident on my own time ... EJ - And why was that? Anne - Because that young, innocent girl, she works for me. Now I happen to know some neighbours heard loud noises coming from her apartment that Friday night. Jen - Are those neighbours here to give statements? Anne - No but I can tell you ... Jen - Third party statements are automatically ruled hearsay according to the HR handbook which you wrote. Kayla - Dr. Westbrook. Dr. W - I hereby rule that there is no cause for any further action to be taken in the matter of Dr. Daniel Jonas and the events of October 25th. Thank you for your help. This case is closed and we are adjourned. Dan shakes Dr. W's hand and then EJ's. EJ - Congratulations Doctor. Dan - I was a little surprised you were with me on this. EJ - I will never forget what you did for my brother. That and I know what it's like to be the victim of a witch hunt. Mainly it's because that vile woman had no grounds; none whatsoever. Good luck to you. Dan and Jen are the only two left in the room.

Rory - We're your only friends man. Everyone else in school thinks you're some kind of freak who gets arrested and then goes off and breaks all the windows in the square. Bev - We actually care about you. Rory - But if you're too good to hang out with us now then fine. Find out how much life sucks when you're all alone dude. They walk away.

Rafe is wheeling himself along in the park as Jordan walks alongside him. Rafe - Rafe. Every year I've been in Salem there's been snow on the ground by Thanksgiving. Jordan - It will come. Rafe - What's the weather like in Birmingham this time of year. Jordan - I don't know. Rafe - You don't talk to family or friends back home? Jordan - No. Btw, what happened with your sister and that modelling job? Rafe - She texted me last night; she turned it down. Jordan - I'm sure you're happy about that. Rafe - Yeah, I would have missed her and that baby. She asks if he'd like to sit on the bench for a while. Jordan offers to wheel him closer but Rafe says he's going to walk to it from here. He gets the feeling she thinks he can't do it because it's a farther distance than usual.

Sami meets up with Kate at the bench near the gates to the square. Sami is dusting herself off. Kate - You went back there. Sami - Yeah. So what did you want to talk to me about? Kate - Oh I don't know. Someone is dead ... I thought maybe we should touch base, make sure everything is covered. Sami - As long as Nick stays in the water and floats out to sea, we're golden. Kate - Oh really, 'cause there's more to it than that. Sami - Like what? Kate - Like I used Nick's phone to text Hope to let her know that Nick arrived in New York and is doing swell. Sami - Okay but ease off the communication. Kate - I arranged for his things to be picked up and they will disappear. Sami - Perfect. Kate - I called your son and it seems that Gabi is still in bed which says to me she had trouble sleeping. Sami - Right, I'm sure. Kate - You do know she's the wild card in all this, right? Sami - Hah! No kidding Kate. She's the reason we're in this mess. Kate - So are you going to tell me why you were down by the river? Sami - I lost something.


Segment 6: Dan - I don't think Anne was very happy. Jen - Then my day is complete! Dan - Seriously, the way you shut her down; well done. What I appreciated most is the way you supported me with this letter. It was so kind ... Jen - I was asked if I would write it and I immediately knew that I had to. Dan - But the words you used ... Jen - Every word in that letter is true. You are a great doctor.

Sami shows her the one earring she has left. Kate - You lost the other one. Sami - It's a good thing EJ didn't notice it was missing. He gave them to me for Valentine's day. Kate - God, this is $30,000 at least. Sami - These earrings cost $30,000! Kate - No, one is $30,000 and now it's twin is somewhere down by the river. Sami - OMG. It might not be; it might be at the house. I might have lost it anywhere. It's going to turn up; I'm going to find it. Kate - God, let's hope that a lost earring is the only other problem with all of this. We have to go talk to Gabi right now. Sami - I can't. I have to take the kids to a museum down state. You talk to Gabi alright. Hey, did you check that flashdrive Nick gave you. Kate - No, not yet. Sami - Well you should when you get a chance. Who knows what kind of incriminating evidence he's got on the thing. Kate - Look, don't start making up imaginary problems, okay. Don't! Just go.

Rafe makes it to the bench. He practically falls on her the last step though. Sorry, sorry.

Sami is walking through the square sending a text when she literally bumps into Theo. Oh my gosh, sorry! Are you okay? I'm just totally out of it this morning. Theo - It's okay. Abe - Somebody's in a rush here, huh. Sami - Yes I really am. I don't have time to chat but hi Abe, bye. She leaves.


Segment 7: Anne confronts Theresa. What the hell was that in there. She grabs her arm and drags her out from behind the nurse's station. Don't you ? me, you little back stabber. Theresa - I told you I can't go in there and lie. I could get in trouble ... Anne - I told you that you wouldn't, didn't I? For God's sake, this was a chance in a lifetime. Little Jennie and Dr. Dan would be out in the street right now but no suddenly the druggie gets a conscience. Theresa - Maybe it's about time. Maybe it's time I realised who my real friends are. She walks away.

JJ greets his Aunt Kayla in the square. Kayla - How are you? JJ - Aren't you supposed to be at that thing with my mom? Kayla - You mean the hearing? JJ - She told me that Dr. Jonas was on trial. Kayla - Well no, not really. And it's over anyway. JJ - I hope it wasn't too hard on my Mom. Kayla - Don't worry. Your Mom is fine. So is Dr. Jonas. In fact I'm kind of hoping this is a new beginning for them. They deserve better JJ. And I realise that maybe it's not what you want to talk about but if they decide to be friends again I hope you've figured out that you really don't have a say in it. See you later.

Dan - Thank you. It was very nice of you to say. Jen - It's true, why not say it. That's what all these letters attest to, right. You are a talented, gifted doctor. It's too bad you're such a poor excuse for a human being. She walks out.

Rafe says sorry again to Jordan. They end up kissing.

EJ walks into the pub. Kate is at a table with her laptop open talking on her cell. Am I connected to the office network yet. I'm going to send something over. No just standby, I'm going to check it out and see if it's working. She puts her phone down. Well Nick, let's see what you're all too weird brain came up with. She inserts the flashdrive. It Nick's floating head ... some flashes of light and then her screen goes black. Kate - No, no, no. Damn it! EJ looks over at her.

Sami is the living room calling up the stairs for the kids. Time to go. Time to have some fun. She looks at her earring. Oh God, $30,000. I've got to find your mate.

While Abe is talking on his cell in the square Theo pulls out Sami's mate and stares at it.
