Craig assured Rosanna that everything was cool with Emily because he spoke to Paul, though he did have some snark for Ro’s most recent hubby. “Look, I know Paul chafes you in very sensitive areas, but he is the guy that I’m in love with so a little restraint, please?” she snapped.
Well, speaking of, things heated up fast between Emily and Paul, who were swapping sloppy kisses and rolling around naked and breathless on the floor in minutes. Afterward, they snuggled on the couch, Carjack-style, and reminisced about their first (and only) time together, 16 years ago, and the regrets they’ve had since then. “Can you imagine how much happier we’d all be if I had just killed my father when I had the chance?” Actually, you did kill your father when you had the chance, Paul. A new writing regime brought him back years later with some questionable backstory. He continued by promising Emily that he wanted to be there with her, and this wasn’t about Rosanna, who was busy being given false hope by Carly. She thinks that Paul still wants Rosanna because he convinced Emily to drop the charges. ( Way to show loyalty to your good spa friend, Carly. Though they don’t say blood is thicker than water for nothing.) This convinced Ro to go see Paul again, but she ran right into Emily, who was back in her necktie-bedazzled shirt. Back at the farm, Psychic Parker showed up to tell Carly he had a sad dream about Cabot and Aunt Rosanna — which is a bad sign, considering his significant powers. Maybe he could conjure up J.J.’s whereabouts while he’s at it, though.

Dude, Tom took Casey for some additional tests at the hospital, and Celia joined him. Apparently, Tom reminds Celia of her dead “Papi” back in Montega, and he urged her to consider herself part of the family. Casey then sent his dad off to the cafeteria so he could be alone with his girl. Tom took the hint and left, but not before admonishing his son to “act normal.” He’s trying, Tom, really! Celia tried not think of Will when Casey kissed her, but got all weird when he brought up next year’s prom, saying he doesn’t know that they’ll be together. (Life is filled with uncertainty in Montega!) He pledged his devotion by presenting her with his Livestrong bracelet. “What does this mean?” she asked, to which she replied “Us.” Actually dude, doesn’t it mean “support cancer research”?

At the same time, Will was at Burt’s Garage ordering mom-to-be Gwen to stop smoking while getting some important info about her, namely: no, she’s not telling Casey about her pregnancy because it would be too heartbreaking to hear him ask if she’s sure he’s the father, her parents are out of the picture, and she’s on scholarship at Oakdale Latin (good to know). We also learn that Will lives with Uncle Bob and Aunt Kim. Is Emily still mad at him? Because maybe Hal would like to see him. But we digress. Will worried that Gwen wouldn’t be able to handle things on her own, and urged her to call him if she needs support. She yelled that she doesn’t need anybody, but after he left, she crumpled onto the bed with her stuffed animal. Isn’t it odd that psycho/”murderer”/Barbara-spawn Will, and not Tom and Margo’s son, is coming off as the upstanding one here?

Jennifer basically told Katie that if she’s not with her, she’s against her. And though he agrees that Craig has legal rights to the child and therefore won’t just go away, Mike backed Jennifer, who loved him even more for it… but still couldn’t let it go. She wanted to know what Mike would have said had she not been there and then accused him of purposely not telling her that Katie and Henry split up. How’re you liking married life so far, Mike?

Meanwhile, Craig met with Katie at the Lakeview, where he tried to weasel more information about Jennifer from her. She assured him that Jen and the baby seemed to be in good condition, and he questioned her motives again, but let her down gently. Then they discussed her loneliness and he offered to take her to dinner later in the week. He assured her he wasn’t leaving to go stalk Jen, which is of course exactly where he was headed. If Craig’s so worried about Jen’s health, maybe the best thing wouldn’t be to show up and freak her out at the doctor’s? Also freaking a bit was Mike, who got called to the Lakeview for some busted pipe problems, but when he saw Katie there, he assumed she’d tricked him. (She is kind of the girl who cried wolf.) “Why don’t you stop worrying about everyone else and get a life of your own,” he harshed. “Why don’t you go to hell?” she snapped back. Oh yeah, there’s no unfinished business between those two anymore, no sir.
