Kendall finally filled Greenlee in on the fact that Ryan didn't love his wife because he was still carrying a torch for his old flame. Meanwhile, Ryan icily demanded an explanation from Annie. Kathy had a nightmare about her dad being poisoned by Krystal. As Erica and Adam arrived at the Yacht Club, Carmen bitterly assumed that Jack really was just using her to make his ex jealous. Rattled to learn that Ryan loved her, Greenlee pointed out to Kendall how she had devoted herself to Aidan. Annie defended her actions by reminding her husband how their marriage was on the verge of falling apart before she got pregnant. Adam enjoyed watching Erica seethe while Carmen accused Jackson of being no better than the sleazy former boyfriend who sent her to prison. Kathy ran to Tad for comfort upon awakening from her bad dream. Taylor bumped into Jake as she moved into Jamie's old apartment. Erica bickered with Jack, who declared he had no intention of sitting home and pining away for her. Though grateful for her invitation to spend the night, Jake was puzzled by Taylor's cheerful remarks about him being no threat to her virtue. Kendall prodded Greenlee to admit that she wanted Ryan and always will. Kathy whispered to a baffled Tad that she'd save him. Haunted by another vision of her late brother, Annie nervously assured Ryan she wasn't hiding any more secrets. Jake set Taylor straight about his sexual orientation. Jackson promised Carmen the only reason he asked her out was because he truly wanted to spend time with her.
