In the cage, Lauren tried to convince Jana that they could overpower Daisy and make a run for it. Jana's headaches were debilitating her, however, and she began screaming in agony. Lauren called for Ryder, and he and Daisy arrived. Lauren begged for medical attention for Jana, but Daisy insisted that her illness was faked. Lauren held out hope that Ryder would eventually do the right thing. Jana advised Lauren to escape alone; that she should leave her behind and go to Michael and stop Sarah. Lauren comforted Jana as her headaches became overwhelming. Lauren pulled her into her lap and assured her that Kevin would never give up. Daisy taunted Lauren, saying that Sarah was in Lauren's home right at that moment, with her husband and son. She advised Lauren to kiss up to her, because one phone call to Sarah was all it would take for harm to come to her loved ones. Daisy continued to torment Lauren and Jana by pulling food out of her bag and eating noisily. Jana tried to retaliate. "Poor little Max," she said pointedly to Daisy, mentioning the little boy who she suspected Daisy had murdered. Momentarily startled, Daisy quickly recovered saying that what she had done to "poor little Max" was nothing compared to what she had in mind for Lauren and her family. The duplicitous duo walked away from the cage. Once alone, Ryder and Daisy discussed their strategy, including what to do about Abby. Ryder dialed her on his cell phone, and asked her to meet him there.

Meanwhile at home, Sarah was masquerading as Lauren. Kevin had questions about Jana, but Sarah claimed to know nothing. Kevin left, and Michael and Sarah were alone. Michael was eager to hear what had happened to "Lauren" on the night of her disappearance. Sarah shockingly claimed that she had gone up to a hotel room with a strange man during the Ball and slept with him. After absorbing the information and trying to rationalize it, Michael blamed himself. Sarah, pretending to be appalled at "Lauren's" actions, got Michael to reveal everything he knew about Sarah Smythe. Fen came running out of his room and was overjoyed to see his "mom.” He began singing, but Sarah didn't know the words to the song. Fen pulled away from her and ran off to his room. Michael suggested taking his "wife" to the doctor. Sarah adamantly refused to see any doctors. After Sarah went into the kitchen, Michael quickly called the doctor to make an appointment and ask for a psychiatric referral. The doctor referred him to Dr. Emily Abbott.

Kevin met up with Amber and Daniel at the coffeehouse. Daniel was skeptical about whether Jana had really been kidnapped, but Amber was determined to help Kevin find his missing wife. She suggested that she and Kevin go back to the abandoned amusement park to search again. Once at the entrance, Kevin and Amber were stunned to see Abby there with picnic supplies. Abby wondered what they were doing there. After hearing their explanation, Abby became suspicious of Ryder. Amber and Kevin asked her to keep an eye out for Jana, and they gave up and left. When Ryder arrived, Abby immediately began questioning him. "Did you have something to do with Jana's disappearance?" she blurted out. Ryder played the sympathy card, explaining that nobody believed him and that nobody could possibly care about a homeless guy. Abby was shocked to learn that he was homeless. She pondered her predicament as she watched him walk away.

Ryder snuck a bottle of pain reliever in the cage to Jana. She didn't have time to be grateful before Daisy appeared and announced that she had received a call from Sarah. "Mama Bear is all comfy in your apartment with your husband, Lauren," she taunted. Indeed, at home, Sarah pranced out into the living room in lingerie. Michael was stunned, but turned her away, saying he would spend the night in the spare bedroom. As he walked away, an evil smirk crept across Sarah's face.

At Cane and Lily's house, Malcolm was cornered when Olivia called his bluff about running into her at Heathrow Airport. He had some major explaining to do about what had really brought him to town, after his lie about coming to visit a sick Lily was exposed. Malcolm claimed to have come to Genoa City for personal reasons, but that when he learned Lily was sick, he became involved. When Neil and Malcolm engaged in a shouting match, Lily slipped out, saying she needed air. Olivia tore into Malcolm for his selfishness and lies, and left. Alone, the brothers continued arguing. Neil accused Malcolm of being untrustworthy, and told him that he had no place in the family. Malcolm said he refused to give up on his daughter, and stormed out. On the porch, Malcolm pulled out his cell phone and whispered, "Keeping our secret is getting harder each day!"

Lily arrived at the coffeehouse, looking for an escape from the craziness at home with her dad and Malcolm. She found Daniel sitting alone, and was glad to see a friendly face. She updated him on the experimental trials available to treat her cancer, but expressed her doubt about her chances of beating it. Daniel listened sympathetically as she lamented her "selfish" decision to bring two babies into the world. Daniel grabbed her hand and reassured her. "Those kids are NOT mistakes," Daniel said. He pointed out that if the worst case scenario happened, there would be plenty of people to love the babies. "But that is not going to happen," he said emphatically. Daniel gave her a big hug and told her that he was always available if she needed someone to talk to. As Lily turned to leave, she was surprised to see Olivia, who pulled her aside to talk. Once outside, Olivia anxiously told Lily that she had she had had an epiphany about her illness. "Your babies, Lily!" she said excitedly. "They might hold the key to your cure!" She went on to explain that although there were dangers involved in extracting their stem cells while in-utero, the potential had to outweigh the risks.
