Markko declared to his father that if he must choose, he chooses Langston and threatened to go upstairs and make love to her. The kids disappeared, and Dorian awkwardly offered her guests a drink. Ernesto blamed Dorian for what went wrong with his son but Shaun came to her defense. Shaun, Moe and Charlie pulled Ernesto aside and suggested that he have a talk with his son, man to man. In the living room, Dorian tried to explain to Aurelia that Markko can make his own decisions. Viki backed Dorian up, drawing from her own parenting experiences, and Noelle remarked what a decent, trustworthy person Markko is.

Layla and Fish returned to an empty apartment after their date. They began kissing but when things got more passionate Fish pulled back. He said he liked her too much to try anything on the first date, but Layla made it clear he didn't have to try very hard. Meanwhile, Cristian questioned Kyle about his association with Fish. Kyle said Fish isn't necessarily who he appears to me, and when Cristian assumed that meant Fish was a player with 10 girls on the side, Kyle laughed, "It's definitely not that. Kyle simply warned Cris that it's not a good idea for Layla to get involved with someone like Fish. Cristian headed home to find Layla and Fish making out on the couch in the dark.

Stacy wandered around Rex's loft trying to figure out where to strategically place a lacy thong. Roxy arrived and called Stacy desperate when she saw the undies sitting out. Stacy gloated that she and Rex are lovers now, and Roxy looked pretty pissed. She accused Stacy of sending that freaky nurse to see her but Stacy didn't know what she was talking about. Roxy seethed to Stacy that she'll never have a place in Rex's heart. Meanwhile, creepy Nurse Charles talked to Rex's verbally unresponsive father while doing a crossword puzzle. The patient squirmed under a white sheet as she assured him he'd meet his family soon enough.

Gigi asked Rex to be straight with her about Stacy's claim but Shane's arrival interrupted Rex from being able to answer. They explained to Shane that they are back together and that Gigi never slept with Brody, but Shane didn't believe her. Rex advised Shane to listen to his mother and announced that Stacy refused to save Shane's life unless Gigi broke up with Rex. When he heard it from Rex's mouth, Shane forgave his mom for not believing in him and was delighted to hear that his parents still love each other. They further explained that they'll have to pull the wool over Stacy's eyes to catch her in the act of retrieving the proper stem cells. Shane was psyched and couldn't wait to pretend to be on his deathbed.

While Layla was getting ready for bed, Cristian let Fish know that he'd spoken with Kyle. Fish was quick to call Kyle a con artist and said he can't be trusted. When Cristian reported that Kyle said Fish isn't what he appears to be, Fish argued that had to do with people's perception of him as a computer geek in college. Layla came out when she heard them still talking, which quickly broke up the conversation. Fish bid her good-night and offered her a handshake (red flag!), so she planted another hot kiss on him. Kyle, meanwhile, was gazing at a photo of him and Fish from their Llanview U. days when a frazzled Roxy accused him of sending Nurse Charles her way. "This creep is torturing me all the way from the grave, and Stacy's still got all the cards," Roxy sighed.

Stacy slipped into a sexy nightgown and pouted while waiting for Rex to come home. Gigi and Rex explained to Shane that they need to all keep up the ruse that Rex and Gigi are still apart. Rex reluctantly called Stacy to check in and lied that Shane isn't feeling well, so he's staying the night. Gigi was pleasantly surprised, but asked what it was Rex was going to say to her earlier. He seemed like he was going to tell her the truth, but then ended up lying that he never slept with Stacy.

Markko and Langston returned to the foyer and Ernesto announced that he was ready to work things out. Markko was pleased ... until Ernesto announced that he'll give Markko another chance if he comes home with them right now. Markko stood his ground, so Ernesto walked out, with Aurelia trailing behind.
