Paloma told Noah to leave. Noah vowed not to give up on her. Noah couldn't get the window washer's bucket to move. Paloma told him go away ASAP. Just then the bucket gave way and dropped to the ground. Paloma screamed and looked on in horror. So, too, did Kay from Tabitha's magic bowl. "Noah, you can't be dead!" cried Paloma. Just then Noah woke up, and realized he was still okay. Paloma warned him not to move because his scaffold was dangling by a thread. The demon elf tried to will the cable to snap. Paloma stepped out onto the ledge to help. She grabbed the rope and used the pulley to lift Noah's scaffold back up to the window. Noah urged her to be careful with the rope. Expecting the worst, Noah told Paloma he has a confession to make...he loves one woman and there's no room in his heart for anyone else. Paloma thought Noah was referring to Fancy. Reluctantly, Kay relented and allowed Tabitha to use her magic to save Noah. "This woman is you, Paloma," Noah declared. "I don't want to live in a world where you don't love me," he claimed while Paloma kept struggling to save him. Once Kay heard that she changed her mind about using magic to save Noah, and said that Paloma needs to save Noah on her own so that their love and relationship can be spared as well. Using all her might, Paloma managed to pull Noah to the brink of safety. Kay watched and concluded that magic isn't needed where there is love. Just then, the demon elf used his magic to snap the final rope just before Paloma could pull Noah into the window. Paloma screamed in horror as Noah dropped again.

In Mexico, Ethan and Theresa enjoyed a warm reunion. In contrast, Ethan lambasted Gwen for her and Rebecca's machinations, and declared they were out of his life for good. "I can't believe I ever thought I loved you," Ethan barked at Gwen. Ethan vowed to get full custody of Jonathan and have Gwen declared an unfit mother. "You and your mother are going to pay for what you've done," added Luis, who phoned the Mexican authorities to come arrest Juanita and Gwen. "This isn't over, Pilar," Juanita seethed. Pilar told Gwen she made a fatal error by underestimating the power of love. Gwen looked on as Ethan and Theresa kissed fast and furiously in a passionate embrace. Theresa then woke up on another section of the wharf, alone. Her reunion with Ethan had all been a dream. In reality, Pilar gave Ethan, Luis and company the Cliffs Notes version of what happened to them. Theresa got up and staggered over to them. She ran up to Ethan to give him a hug but hugged the air right through him, as Ethan appeared not to even notice her. Kay and Tabitha watched this through their bowl. Tabitha explained to a horrified Kay that it means Theresa is dead. She was unable to touch or speak to anyone, including Gwen and Juanita. The Mexican authorities arrived and showed Theresa's family something to confirm her death. The authorities believed she died from shark attacks. Ethan insisted that she might still be alive since no body was found. Pilar broke down and blamed herself for Theresa's death — and Juanita. Theresa looked on in despair as she was unable to get any of her loved ones to notice her.
