Jeffrey offered the ADA his job if she dropped the charges against Tammy, and she agreed, but decided to continue to prosecute Jonathan. Reva pleaded with Jeffrey to have Jonathan released as well. Sandy arrived and Jeffrey escorted him out of the courtroom. The trial resumed and Tammy was called to the stand. She claimed that the fire was an accident, but when the ADA began pressing Tammy to incriminate Jonathan, Jon leapt up and claimed that the fire was entirely his fault. He wanted to testify, despite Mel’s objection that it wouldn’t be wise. Sandy walked back into the courtroom, announcing that he knew how the fire was started. He took the stand and claimed responsibility for accidentally re-starting the blaze. The charges against Jonathan were dismissed. Though Jeffrey denied Reva’s suspicion that he had a role in Sandy’s impromptu confession, viewers saw a flashback of Jeffrey counseling Sandy that in order to win Tammy back, he had to be everything that Jonathan isn’t. Tammy rushed to Sandy and thanked him for clearing Jonathan. Sandy explained that he did it for her, not for Jonathan. Jonathan thanked Sandy too. The men shook hands, and Sandy whispered in Jonathan’s ear, “You owe me.”
At CO2, Buzz spilled to Mallet that Dinah and Harley went to Florida to investigate a possible lead on Gus and Alan. Buzz wondered why Mallet wasn’t flying off to help the women and wondered if Mallet was trying to keep his distance from Harley. Mallet saw an apparition of Gus who taunted him about his investigative techniques. “Gus” chided Mallet for being “so undercover, I bet you wear SPF on your private parts,” and urged that to find Gus, Mallet had to think like Gus. After mulling over theories about what happened the night of the accident, Mallet came to the conclusion that perhaps the apparition was a ghost — and Gus was dead. Meanwhile, Harley brought Dinah to the Florida home that she once shared with Mallet. Dinah noticed that the house had changed little since Mallet and Harley’s marriage, but Harley assured her that Mallet was in her past. Gus was her present and her future. Dinah was pleased that Mallet had room in his heart for her, but fretted because Mallet had cheated on his ex. A man named Archie arrived at the home and claimed that he had given Alan money and a place to sleep. He tried to get money from Harley for his “niece’s caterer” before leading them to Alan, but when he claimed that Alan was staying in a small, dark shed, Harley realized Archie was conning them. Harley kicked the man out, and Dinah told her friend that she believed Gus was trying to find his way back home. In a mystery room, Alan lay unconscious.
Edmund announced that Jeffrey was responsible for Dinah’s release from prison and that Jeffrey impersonated Richard with Dinah all over Europe. Edmund encouraged Cassie and Josh to ask around, then come back and thank him for telling the truth once it was confirmed. Edmund revealed that he still loves Cassie, but he believed Jeffrey deserves her even less than Edmund does: At least with Edmund, what you see is what you get. Cassie asked Josh to leave so that she could speak to Edmund alone. Cassie vowed that there was no chance of her reconciling with Edmund. Then Edmund insinuated that not only had Jeffrey impersonated Richard in public, but in private. Alone. With Cassie. He asked if she ever wondered while with Richard, “Why do his kisses feel so different?” Cassie slapped Edmund, and Josh stormed in with guards. Edmund snarked that Cassie should go home to her “imitation prince.” Cassie returned to the farm, and Jeffrey arrived home with flowers to find Cassie sitting with the lights out. Cassie announced that while the lights were out, she wasn’t in the dark anymore.
