dried flowers in a bag. A note was attached from Olivia telling Phillip to
knock it off with the flowers. Michelle and Danny join Phillip for dinner
at the Beacon. Phillip was unaware that Danny would be joining them. Danny
did not want to tell him because he was afraid that Phillip would not hear
him out. Danny has a proposition for Phillip. Danny tries to convince

father about her acceptance letter from Northwestern. Harley then goes

can't stand being himself. Harley shows Frank Marina's admission letter to
Northwestern. He starts to go outside to congratulate Marina, but Harley
stops him. Rick shows up and gives Harley the keys to the family cabin.
Marina plans a night away with Shayne at the cabin. Marina tells Shayne the
getaway plan. She tells him that she has told her father that she is going
to the cabin with Tammy. Remy plans to cover for Shayne. Marina wonders if
they should tell their parents the truth, but they decide not to tell anyone
so that their privacy is not disturbed. Tammy shows up feeling a little
nervous about covering, but she agrees. Frank is inside gloating about his
daughters acceptance to Northwestern. Harley and Frank discuss Marina's
financial concerns. Harley shows Frank the expenses involved in going to

out of the car. In the meantime, Ben calls Lizzie and leaves a message
asking her to return his call; and tells her he's been trying to get a hold
of Marina, but she won't return his calls. Gus shows up and implies that
Ben must be feeling better. Gus tells Ben that Mitch has had Ben under
surveillance ever since he found out that Ben was playing mattress tag with
his wife. Gus tells Ben that means there is a private investigator out
there that knows Bens every move for the past several months. Ben tells Gus
to direct his questions and suspicions toward Eden. Ross enters the room
and Ben tells him that a private investigator that Mitch hired had been
following him and questions whether the police have any right to the
information. Ross demands the name of the private investigator, but Gus
doesn't know the investigator's name himself. After Gus leaves, Ross tells
Ben that the police have a right to see the investigator's file. Ross asks
whether there is anything in the file the police shouldn't see! Ben says he
's just worried about pictures of him with Ramona. Ben puts a suit on to go
visit his Grandmother. He tells Ross that he promised his Grandmother a
date with dancing. Ross tells him that he just got off the telephone with

that he has the DNA Lab results that the former coroner (murder victim) was
working on. The DNA matches Ben's old girlfriend, Bridget. Bridget had a
broken neck as though she had been strangled, similar to the other
Springfield murder victims. Frank and Gus both agree that this links Ben to
the murders.

Olivia, Cassie, and Edmund meet at Company. Cassie explains to Olivia how
Jeffrey saved her life. Phillip, Lizzie, and Beth show up at Company
shortly after Olivia arrived. Lizzie notices Phillip's distraction with
Olivia in the room and offers to go somewhere else. Phillip says that he is
okay with staying right there. A similar conversation is going on at Olivia's table. Edmund offers that they dine elsewhere. Olivia says they don't
have to leave, but just in case Phillip comes over, she needs to tell Cassie
something. Olivia mentions to Cassie that she told Phillip that Cassie was
her birthing coach. A waitress goes to Phillip's table and apologizes for
the chaos. She explains that Marina is off and the others called in sick.
Phillip offers to pitch in and wait on tables. As Cassie is expressing her
feelings about having to lie to Phillip, he approaches their table to take
their order. Olivia appears to be a little short with him. Phillip tells
them to look over their menus, and he will return in a moment. Just before
he leaves, he tells Cassie that he heard she was going to be Olivia's
birthing coach. After Phillip leaves, Cassie starts to react to the lie,
but Olivia tells her they wouldn't have to lie if Cassie would agree to be
her birthing coach for real. Cassie seems quite shocked and suggests that
the birthing coach be someone she is close to, but with Sam gone, Olivia
explains that she has no one. Cassie finally agrees, but questions why she
won't choose Phillip to be her birthing coach. Olivia says that she wants
Phillip to be part of the baby's life, but having him be her birthing coach
would put him back into her life as well. Phillip returns to the table, and
Edmund jokes about not tipping anymore than 15%. Phillip asks Edmund if he
would like some lovely strychnine. Olivia asks to speak to Phillip alone.
Olivia tells Phillip that she just asked Cassie to be her birthing coach
today. Phillip wonders if she is telling him so that there are no more lies
between them because she still cares for him. Olivia tells him that she is
just trying to be honest. She said that they need to work on their honesty
so that they can set an example for their child. Phillip tells her he wants
to be her birthing coach, but she still tells him "no." Phillip asks her if
anything he has said or done in the past several weeks has gotten through to
her at all. Phillip tells Olivia that he loves her. Olivia then says that
he just hates losing. She tells him she wants to be with someone who
believes and trusts her, and someone she doesn't constantly have to prove
herself to. They both take full responsibility for their mistakes, but
Olivia says they can't put an innocent baby in the middle of their next
indifference.
Edmund and Cassie had stepped unto the porch to give Olivia and Phillip
some privacy. As they share a kiss, they are interrupted by Jeffrey again!
Jeffrey tells them he has come to get something to eat and Edmund comments
that the service is slow today. Jeffrey tells them that reminds him of a
hotel he knows of. Cassie reminds him of the luxuries of her hotel
including the bath. Jeffrey comments that he's not in to taking baths
considering what happens to people in bathtubs at her hotel. Cassie
comments that she conveniently placed the blow dryer plugged in right next
to his bathtub. Cassie gets a telephone call and Edmund gets the
opportunity to talk to Jeffrey alone. Edmunds starts to thank Jeffrey for
saving Cassie's life, but Jeffrey comments that Edmund wasn't there when
Cassie needed him the most but not to worry because Cassie probably wouldn't hold it against him. Cassie and Edmund go back inside, and Cassie stops
to talk to Jeffrey about Mitch. Edmund is approached by Beth. Beth
questions Edmund about his jealousy toward Jeffrey. Beth tells him to stuff
the monster inside him way-way down, and don't let Cassie see it or he will
lose her.
Beth and Lizzie discuss Phillip's persistence with Olivia. Beth tells
Lizzie that she knows what Lizzie is up to by not telling Phillip that Beth
was joining them for dinner. Lizzie tells Beth that it is obvious that
Phillip and Beth still love each other and waiting for them to do something
about it is just excruciating. Beth tells her that she is waiting for
something that is never going to happen, and Phillip is with Olivia or he
is trying to be. Lizzie tells Beth that no one should have to try to make
someone want to be with you.
Ben calls Lizzie because he thinks he is lost. In the meantime, he kicks
and breaks his tail light. Lizzie tells him he is on the right track, and
the road he is looking for should be the next one. Ben wonders whether he
should even be going up there because Marina is with Shayne now. Lizzie
encourages him, and tells him that Marina is the one for him, especially
with his new inheritance. Ben thanks her and hangs up. As he approaches
his car, a police officer stops him and tells him to step away from the
vehicle. The police officer questions why Ben is stopped along a road that
is clearly marked "No Parking" and "No Standing Along the Highway"! Ben
tells him that he was reading a map. The police officer tells him that
these road signs mean there is no stopping unless your vehicle is disabled.
The police officer then notices Ben's broken tail light and threatens to
follow him downtown to ensure the tail light is fixed and explains that the
winding roads are unsafe without working tail lights. Ben tells him to
remember what it's like to be in love and he explains that his true love has
left him and he may only have this one chance to make things right. The
police officer lets him go, and tells him not to make him sorry he cut him a
break.
At the Bauer cabin, Shayne seems a little distracted by Marina's swim
suit. Marina suggests they go for a swim. She jokingly says that her dad
may be a little suspicious if she returns home without a tan. Marina heads
out to the pond while Shayne grabs a few things including a little music.
Shayne arrives at the pond and offers to put some sun lotion on her back.
Marina starts to daydream about Springfield being so far away. Shayne tells
her that the problems of Springfield still exists. Shayne tells her that
Remi just called and told him that Ben's grandmother died. Marina seems
upset by the news. Shayne tells her that he would understand if she wanted
to call Ben. Marina tells Shayne that she wishes good things for Ben, but
the somebody that Ben shares his dreams with won't be her. She tells Shayne
that she has already moved on and this is where she wants to be and who she
wants to be with. Shayne reminds Marina about the chicken dinner she
promised him. Shayne heads to the store to get some charcoal while Marina
stays at the cabin to prepare the salad. Later, Marina hears something from
outside. She starts calling for Shayne, but no one answers. She grabs a
fireplace poker and opens the door . Shayne was at the door with flowers.
While inside sharing a kiss, Ben is watching from outside.
Gus is interrogating a Private Investigator that he assumes is the PI that
Mitch hired. The PI insists that he had nothing to do with the case. Gus
releases the PI and demands that if he finds out anything, he must let him
know. Jeffrey had been listening in outside the interrogation room
Harley shows up and Jeffrey defends his eavesdropping by stating that this
is his case too! Gus steams out irritated by the fact that he still does
not know who the investigator is that might have crucial information on Ben.
Jeffrey tells him not to worry about it. He tells Gus to pack his bags and
get out of here. Jeffrey tells Gus that he has found the name of the
Private Investigator. Jeffrey tells Gus that the PI is staying at a hotel
in Amsterdam and that Gus must leave ASAP. Gus explains to Harley the
importance of finding all he can on Ben because of the new evidence
concerning the death of his old girlfriend, Bridget. Gus is curious as to
how Jeffrey found out the PI's name. Jeffrey explains that he felt a big
motivator--called "guilt" for letting the FED's wheel off Mitch before Gus
had a chance to talk to him. Gus says that the FED's gave him the PI's
name. Gus gets ready for his trip. His airline tickets arrive. In the
meantime, he is trying to convince Harley to come along with him, but she
declines. Harley explains that they need to put some money away for Marina'
s tuition. She sends him off with a farewell kiss.

Frank comes into Company to help Buzz out today. Buzz is still short staff.
Frank's new love, Darci, lends a hand as well. Buzz tells Darci that he
has plans to go fishing with Billy Lewis Sr. Darci questions Buzz about a
chart she saw in the kitchen about the Marina's Fund. Buzz explains the
college financial trouble. Darci tells him to count her in. Darci starts
to get her checkbook, but Frank tells her "no." Frank tells her he doesn't
want her to feel obligated, and they have it covered. Darci thanks that
Frank doesn't want her money because of her past. Frank explains that it
has nothing to do with her money, he just wants to be responsible for
managing sending his daughter to school. He feels ashamed enough having to
take money from his sister and father. Darci assures Frank that he is a
great father and also a great boyfriend. Frank agrees to let Darci help.
Tony is entertaining Eden again. He is going through her planner to find
clues regarding the murder case. Tony finds a receipt where Eden had rented
a car. Eden said that she used the rented car to go see a sick friend in
Chicago. The receipt could prove that Eden wasn't even in town when Renee
Peterson was killed. But when Tony mentions that they will need to sick
friend to give her an alibi, Eden seems dazed. Eden tells Tony that she
lied again and that she really went to see Vinny in New York. Eden tries to
explain herself, but Tony tells her that for someone who doesn't like to
lie, she sure does a whole lot of it. Tony demands the reason why she went
to see Vinny. Eden said that she wanted to put an end to that part of her
life. Tony tells her that they need to go to New York and see if Vinny will
back Eden up on her story for the police. Eden seems pleased, but then Bill
walks in and says, "what the heck, I'll tag along too. So where are we
going?" That pleased look is not there anymore. Tony then tells Bill that
maybe he should be the one who goes with Eden, but when Bill finds out who
they are going to see, Bill says that it would be better if the mobster went
rather than the boyfriend. Tony agrees since he and Vinny talk the same
kind of talk. Tony leaves to go tell Marah that he's heading out of town.
All alone, Bill starts kicking pillows around.
Josh gets an "urgent" message to met his daughter. Marah tells him she just
wanted to tell him Bon-voyage. She tells him to go to Italy to be with Reva
where he belongs. Josh asks her whether she has something better to do than
nag her father. Marah and Josh go inside Company and Marah starts to share
some pictures still trying to persuade him to go to Italy. Josh said that
he needs to stay in town for Shayne. Marah reminds him that Shayne isn't
even there. Josh said that he's not going because he's worried that he
would send Reva a message that he doesn't want to send right now. Tony
shows up to tell Marah that he is leaving, but Marah tells him there talk
has to wait because she is busy with her dad. In trying to persuade Josh
into going to Italy, Josh gets offended when Marah tells Josh that he is "an
old stick in the mud who is world weary and doesn't want to go on what might
be the most amazing adventure of his life." She tells him that he used to
jump at these kinds of opportunities. Josh said he is not old. Marah tells
him to go then.
Tony is steamed when Marah is too busy to talk to him, and just leaves.
Eden is grinning again from ear to ear. As they arrive at the airport in
New York, someone is holding a "Santos" sign. The man says that the Salerno
family welcomes them to New York. Eden wonders how he knew they were
coming, and the man briefly shows them that he has a gun.
At the Bauer cabin, Shayne and Marina share a romantic dinner. In the
meantime, Ben is still looking in through the window. Shayne gives Marina a
gift a teddy bear wearing a Cub's t-shirt. Marina's expressing her
appreciation and goes in for a hug but is sidetracked by a movement outside.
Shayne looks out and coincidently, there is a deer outside. Shayne tells
Marina that even though it was her idea to come up to the cabin, he wants to
make sure that she doesn't feel pressured. Marina starts going through
Shayne's backpack. He had brought his yearbook up to the cabin and asks
Marina to sign it. Oooops, she reads some pretty juicy notes that other
girls had written on the signature page. Marina takes it in good spirits
though. Shayne tells her that he didn't know what they had written and
pulls out his wallet to show a picture of Marina in it, and tells her this
is the only girl he cares about. As they share their most romantic kiss
yet, Ben is getting more jealous outside. Marina is remembering all the
times that Shayne had warned her about Ben and tells Shayne that she was so
focused on being with the wrong guy that she didn't realize that the right
guy was right next to her all along.. Marina tells Shayne that at one time
she thought that her first time was going to be with Ben, but she is glad
that it didn't happen with him. Ben is outside pacing in anger. He starts
to get inside his car. He pulls out a picture of Marina and begins to cry.
Shayne and Marah continue there romantic and heavy kiss. Marina interrupts
to go and change into some lingerie. Shayne wonders why it is taking
Marina so long. He knocks on the door, but Marina doesn't answer. He opens
the door and the room is a disaster. Looks like quite a struggle. Outside
Marina is in Ben's car unconscious. Ben starts the car, and they leave.
