"Are you really alive?"
Téa and Todd reunite. She tells him Starr and Hope were never at the warehouse and he tells her Dani is fine. Todd tells her everything is going to be just fine because, "I believe in miracles now." Then they hug and cry. Thank goodness. Finally, the happy ending we deserve!
Todd tells Téa he is sorry for giving up on her. They talk about the phone call and she says, "yes," she really did call him. Their peaceful moment doesn't last long and there is another near collapse of the building. But, they get lucky and the cavalry shows up. Bo is leading the rescue and assures them they will soon be out of there.
Natalie runs ballistics on the gun that killed Eli and finds Cole's fingerprints on the trigger. She confronts Marty. Natalie knows that Cole really did the shooting. She tells Marty she overheard her conversation with Cole; and also, Marty did not have any powder residue on her hands. Marty says she washed her hands, but Natalie knows she is grabbing at straws and tells her, she is obligated to report the forensic evidence. Marty begs Natalie to cover for her. This will be Cole's third felony and he will go to prison for the rest of his life!
Natalie asks Marty if she realizes what she is asking. Marty reminds her that after Mitch Lawrence killed her husband, Jared, Natalie stabbed Mitch. And how many people covered for HER?!?!? Even John tried to take the rap. Natalie knows she is right. But just then, John enters the station and this is the first time Natalie has seen him since his rescue. Marty watches them hug, but then turns away. [She has nothing to live for, in so many ways.]
Yesterday, Hannah and James struggled for her gun and she hit James over the head. He passed out and she pushed him into the open grave. She forces Starr to cover him with dirt, then tells Starr to "get in." Starr stalls Hannah by begging to say her goodbyes to Hope. Hannah allows it and appears to actually be starting to break down a bit. But she quickly recovers from her sentimentality, and again tells Starr, "That's it, now get in, or I will hurt Hope."
Starr gets in the grave, Hannah is about to shoot Starr, when James regains consciousness, grabs Hannah's leg and pulls her in with them! There is a struggle, but again, Hannah gains control of the gun and points it at James. Unfortunately for Hannah, Starr is behind her now, and bashes her with one of the shovels.
Langston is explaining to Cole everything that she knows so far about Hannah's reasons for wanting to kidnap Starr and Hope. He suddenly realizes that it is because he told Hannah, that if it wasn't for Starr, he could be with her. In effect, he feels responsible for motivating her to move from fantasy into reality. He just can't believe how foolishly naive he has been!! Langston tries to soothe the blow by saying he was fooled like everyone else, including his mother, because Hannah is such a great liar.
Gigi arrives at Llanfair. Viki and Charlie are greeting trick-or-treaters and also babysitting Shane (who we didn't see, and haven't seen in quite awhile). Rex returns from his trip to New Mexico. He mentions Echo in his conversation with Gigi and Viki is curious. Rex explains he went to NM to see if there was anything else he could find out about the heart necklace. He went to his mother's grave where he had left her half of the necklace, but it was gone. He asked around town and no one recognized Echo from her photo.
Echo and Clint run into each other at the hospital and she shows him the heart necklace. She says HE gave it to HER after purchasing it on a business trip to NM. He says he doesn't remember and doesn't want to remember anything about their "relationship." But he does ask why she kept half of a heart. She says, "Because it's special to me." She says she left the other half behind many years ago, maybe at Llanview Hospital; but it wasn't the only precious thing that she left there.
Clint sees an "associate" get off the elevator and heads around the corner to meet with him. Clint asks him if he "took care of it." It seems Clint had Rex followed to NM. His hired help arrived at the cemetery just before Rex did and snatched the necklace off of the grave. He hands it to Clint! Dun, dun, da.....
Cole is sitting alone in his apartment when he hears a tiny voice say, "Daddy" and looks up to see Hope and Starr coming through the door. Another teary, happy ending! YEA!
