Lieutenant Baker brought Stephanie to Owen and demanded to know the entire story. He reminded her that he confessed to poisoning Eric but she asked him to admit that he was working with Donna. He denied it and took full responsibility for trying to kill Eric. When she asked why he planted the drugs in her lingerie drawer, he was unable to answer but then boasted that he regretted that Eric was still alive. After taking a moment, Stephanie accused him of trying to protect Donna and vowed to make them both pay. At the cabana Marcus worried to Steffy what Owen might have done to his mother if he hadn't been stopped. Steffy confessed to Marcus that she was lucky to have him in her life. He pointed out that after finding his mother, he was thrilled to have found Steffy too. Brooke was taken aback when Donna claimed that she now believed that Owen had nothing to do with what happened to Eric. Brooke warned her about falling for his lies but Donna claimed he was in jail because he cared too much for her. Pam interrupted and told Donna that she should be behind bars with her partner, Owen. Ignoring her, Donna demanded that Pam help her find the person who drugged her husband but Pam asked why she was trying to free Owen. Donna claimed he convinced her he was innocent but Pam accused her of trying to frame someone else so that she and Owen could get away with their scheme. With Pam gone, Brooke urged Donna to reconsider trusting Owen but Donna suddenly announced that she knew who hurt Eric. Beth was relieved when Stephen claimed that Eric has no power over him anymore. She responded that she needed him back in her life and he kissed her.

Nick found Nikki at the Mexican bar, and Nikki shared with Nick that Victor was gone. Nick and Nikki spoke to the authorities about widening the search parameters, but they informed them that they'd given up and issued Victor's death certificate, since no one could have survived the wild storm. Michael caught Adam sitting in Victor's office chair. Adam stated that now that he was in charge of Newman Enterprises, there were going to be some major changes. Adam presented Michael with a fax of Victor's death certificate from the Mexican authorities. Adam's first order of business as head of Newman was firing Neil. Michael replied to Adam that as executor of the will, he was going to contest it in court and say that Victor wasn't mentally stable when he appointed Adam head of the estate in his will. Upon hearing that Neil was fired, Karen gave Adam a piece of her mind and then quit. Victoria called Nikki and asked her to come back to Genoa City as soon as possible. Just as Nick and Nikki were about to leave Mexico, the bartender received a call saying that a body had just washed up onshore and the authorities needed Nikki to identify it. Chloe and Cane arrived at the judge's office to get their marriage license, but had to wait around for the judge to come back. Cane erupted and admitted to Chloe that if he didn't want to be a proper man to her and the baby, he'd put her on a plane and never speak to her again. Chloe burst into tears. Devon confided in Lily that he thought Ana should go away to music school. Ana overheard and clung to Devon, saying that she didn't want to go. Later, they convinced Ana go to away to music school.
