Kelly is on the phone with Adriana, who is telling her about her "hot" sex life with her new Parisian lover. Dorian enters the room and interrupts the call to introduce Kelly to a handsome masseur she has hired.
Nora and Téa confer before Cole's hearing. Starr assures Cole he is going to be home with them that night. [Good luck with that.] Cole pleads guilty, but Téa moves to dismiss. The judge reminds Téa he has a signed confession in front of him. Téa offers the extenuating circumstances regarding this "crime of passion." The judge adds, "thus, the 2nd-degree murder charge." However, he doesn't agree with the justification offered in regard to shooting someone who is handcuffed and unable to run or defend himself. He calls for a recess to consider his decision.
Marty tells John she is surprised Natalie isn't there to gloat. He said she wasn't feeling well. Marty: Oh, that's right, she had to rest up." John: "How so?" Marty: "From her doctor's appointment yesterday. I told you I ran into her at the hospital." John: "Yeah, she needed to get some vitamins." Marty: "Oh, is that what she told you?"
Marty can't let it go, and pushes John to ask himself the question of, why was it that Natalie didn't tell him she had an OB appointment. Now, John wants to know what is going on with Marty. She says she is just surprised Natalie didn't tell him herself. He asks if she is saying, she knows something that he doesn't know? Marty says,"I just know she didn't see her doctor to pick up vitamins."
Natalie tells Jessica about how Marty has been acting and that she blames her for Cole's arrest. Jessica tries to defend Marty and suggests maybe Natalie misunderstood or is reading something into it. Natalie tells her about the slap and Jessica is shocked. They have a long heart-felt discussion and then Jessica decides to take a nap. She is having a hard time waiting for the amnio test and finds being unconscious an easier alternative. She tells Natalie she is the best sister ever, then goes upstairs. After that, Brody comes home and Natalie starts to get all worked up about "what if" and what are they going to do "if....?"
Gigi is in Paris to help Christian with a presentation and runs into Adriana in the restaurant of the hotel where she is staying. These two have a long history of conflict. Adrian and Rex were engaged when Gigi first came to Llanview and Adriana found out Shane is Rex's son. Adriana did whatever it took, including bringing Brody to town to pretend to be Shane's father, so that Rex wouldn't find out the truth; at least not until after they were married.
Gigi is studying the menu and her French to English dictionary trying to figure out how to order. Adriana tells her she needs to eat like she is in Paris and orders something for her in French that turns out to be frog legs. She also suggests she should dress like she is in Paris, and says she might be able to find something for her to wear from her designer sample dresses. Then, she asks Gigi about her relationship with Rex and tells her Rex confided in her about their current celibacy. Gigi calls Rex to confirm that he has been talking to Adriana and we he tells her it is true, she hangs up on him.
When the judge returns to the court room, he summarizes Cole's previous convictions and stresses the seriousness of this third strike. However, taking into consideration the circumstances of the crime, he is willing to render the minimum sentence. Cole must serve 10 years in Statesville Prison. Cole and Starr go back to La Boulaíe so Cole can say goodbye to Hope. Cole breaks up with Starr!
Marty loses it completely after the sentencing and blurts out to John that Natalie was at the hospital to have her baby's DNA tested. Brody and Natalie are in the study at Llanfair still fretting about "what if" when John arrives and asks Natalie if she had an amniocentesis.
Dun, dun, da.....
