The Russell House:
In Whitney's room all of the girls are standing around waiting to see who Chad says he loves. the camera is on Chad as he tries to focus on Simone but again sees Whitney as she asks him who does he love. Chad reaches out for Simone and grabs her and pulls her in for a kiss as he says it's you. The camera pans the room and shows all the other girl's reactions. Theresa is very upset and Kay is flashing a smile as poor Whitney looks like she was smacked with a baseball bat in the stomach. They all watch Chad and Simone kiss. Whitney says" See I told you Chad didn't love me, he loves Simone. We see Simone kissing all over Chad and Whitney can't stand it and leaves the room. Theresa goes after her tells her to not let what they saw in there bother her because it doesn't mean a thing. Whitney says except that Chad is in love with her little sister! Theresa tells her that Chad is just very sick and didn't realize what he was saying. Whitney says nice try but she's not buying it, and like it matters because nothing is going on between her and Chad. She also says she is very happy for both Simone and Chad. Theresa says yeah right like I am happy for Ethan and Gwen right? Theresa: You just told me not even an hour ago that you liked Chad. Whitney says that Theresa misunderstood her. Theresa says she is only saying that because she is hurt. Theresa tells Whitney that she thinks Chad thinks he was kissing Whitney instead of Simone! Next we see Chad lying in bed and Simone is staring at him. Kay comes up to her and tells her she is so lucky that the one she loves, loves her back. Chad says "I love you Whitney" Simone asks did Chad just say something? Kay says she is not sure so Simone goes up to him and he says I love you. Simone says this is a dream come true and that Chad is an amazing kisser. She asks Kay if she looks any different because she feels different. Simone says this is the happiest day of her life. Kay tells her not to say that too loud, because didn't you see the look on your sister's face when she tore out of here? When Chad said he loved you and kissed you she looked like she had been hit by a bus! Kay says she wouldn't be surprised if Whitney was crying her eyes our right now. Simone says she wouldn't give Whitney such a hard time about it because she never felt that Whitney had feeling for Chad, only for Tennis. Kay tells her to wake up because Whitney is still after Chad, just like Charity is after Miguel! Theresa explains to Whitney that Chad is was so out of it that he had no idea who he was kissing let alone declare his undying love to. Whitney tells her to stop because she doesn't care who Chad loves. Theresa tells her she can't lie to her best friend. She knows she is upset. She has to fight for what is meant to be like with her and Ethan. Whitney tells her to forget about Ethan too because he is going to marry Gwen. Theresa tells her no he is not. Whitney tells Theresa then why was Ethan in her room tonight? It was to tell her to stop loving him wasn't it? Theresa tells her that deep down Ethan know he loves her and all he needs is a push. And she is going to give it to him. Eve has just called the girls to let them all know what has happened. Kay is upset about her dad being down there so she goes home to be with her mother. Theresa goes to tell Ethan what has happened about Sheridan. Whitney asks her if she thinks that is a good idea. Theresa tells her it is not about that. Theresa tells Whitney it is about when you love someone you want to be there for them in their time of need. Off she goes and Whitney peaks into her room to see Simone kissing Chad's hand and telling him she loves him too. Whitney is talking to Simone about her room and where she is going to sleep tonight. Simone tells her to just sleep in her room since she will be up all night with Chad. Whitney is very upset because she has a morning practice. Simone tells Whitney it would make her happy that if she was happy for her because of Chad and she knows her parents aren't going to be too happy about it. Whitney says she doesn't know and Simone begs her to be. Simone tells her is has always been so jealous of Whitney all her life because she is more prettier than she and she is so great at tennis etc. No wonder you're Dad's favorite! Whitney denies it but Simone says she is not blind. She knows it is true. She knows that dad loves her but he only focuses on Whitney. Whitney says she had no idea that Simone felt that way about her. Simone says she is not as angry anymore not after tonight. Simone goes over to the bed and sits next to Chad. She has someone who finally loves her for her first for once. She tells Whitney that she has tennis and she has Chad and that they both have what they want. Whitney is standing over Chad and has a flashback of when her and Chad kissed on the tennis court. When the flashback is over she says aloud Is it really Simone you love?

Sam runs off to the warehouse. Hank starts to go and Eve stops him telling him he is still too weak to go. Hank tells Eve that if no one has heard from Luis that means he and Sheridan are in trouble or could be Eve tells him to not think that. Eve says that he needs to stay there and she has to go in case someone needs medical attention. Hank tells her not without him because if anything has happened it's his fault! We see Sheridan and the gun is smoking. She calls out to Luis to please answer her and he doesn't. OH GOD what have I done she says. she runs over to him and picks up his arm. She sees the blood spot and sees she has shot him. She says he is dead. Sheridan is upset because Luis is not breathing. She gives him CPR and he starts to cough. Thank God you are alive where did I shoot you she says. Luis tells her he is fine and that she shot the hitman. Luis tells her she did great but he should be reading her the riot act because she wasn't supposed to have followed him and she came too close to being shot herself. She begs him to not yell at her now. Luis says but if you hadn't of come down here I'd be a goner. You saved my life! Sam comes running in and asked if they are okay. They say they are and that Sheridan has shot the hitman. Eve and Hank come in and Eve rushes in to tend to the hitman. Luis tells the hitman he has to ask him a few questions. Luis is very upset and tells everyone that the hitman better stay alive long enough for them to get the information out of him they need about who he was working for. Eve says he is losing a lot of blood. Sheridan says she is worried about Hank because he looks bad. Hank tells her that is just wanted he wanted to hear from the most beautiful woman in the world. Luis can't believe that almost an hour ago he was almost dead but Hank still has enough left in him to flirt! Sheridan says she is so sorry because this is all her fault. Luis tells her it's not, that it is whoever he was working with's fault and Luis isn't going to stop until he finds out who it is. Eve tells the hitman to be still as he comes to. Sam goes over to them and tells the hitman that he is going straight to jail. Luis asks him who is was working with, who helped him try to kill Sheridan? Luis asks him how did you know Ms. Crane was going to be on the wharf tonight? We see Hank's face and he flashes back to when the hitman tells him he has to get Sheridan on the wharf to save his nieces' lives. The hitman points at Hank and Hanks gives the most 'shocked' look as he looks around to his friends. Hank has that look still while the hitman points at him. Luis says: Why are you pointing at him? I asked you for the name of the man you are working with! The hitman starts to gasp and Eve tries to save him. Luis grabs the hitman and Sam makes him get off of him. Sam asks Hank any idea of why he was pointing at you? Luis says it was probably because he remembers him from the wharf. Hank chimes in saying yeah that's it. Luis asks Eve if she can bring him around again. Sam says don't worry there is plenty of time to find out who was working with him. Eve says it's no use. Sam asks her what she meant. Eve says he is dead. Sheridan freaks out. Oh my God! I've killed him. Hank looks so happy! Sheridan freaks out saying that she didn't mean to kill him, as they put a sheet over the body. Luis tells her she had no choice. Sheridan says that no one has the right to take another's. Sam tells her that the hitman would have killed her and Luis. She saved their lives! Eve asks if Sheridan has to stay. Sam says no and Hank says he will take her home. Sheridan walks away towards the body and Hank and Luis talk. Luis says that too bad that guy died before he could give up the name of the guy he was working with, so now Sheridan is still in danger. Sheridan is sitting next to the body when she touches the sheet and gets blood on her hands. She flashes back to when she was a little girl with blood on her hands. Sheridan freaks out at the blood on her hands and that it has happened before. She starts screaming! Sheridan screams again and they all rush over to see what's wrong. They get her away from the body and Eve gives her something to help wipe off the blood. Luis tells her she didn't do anything wrong and she knows that right! Luis asks Eve why won't she say anything? Eve says she is in shock and she takes Sheridan over to the side and tells her she will be okay and everything will be fine. Sam says she will be okay and that he has been a cop for years and he stills gets a reaction everytime he pulls the trigger. Sheridan can't seem to get the blood off of her hands and she again flashes back to when she was little. Luis says that he thinks it is more than just that.

Grace tells her that is Charity's. Charity tells Kay it is special for Miguel and Miguel says he can't wait to eat some but he wants to call his mom first to see if she knows that Luis is OK. Charity goes with him and Grace watches as they leave. Kay looks at the quiche and she has a bad look in her eyes like she is going to pull something! Charity and Miguel come back into the kitchen and he says he wants an extra big piece because he is so hungry. Kay is watching very closely! Outside looking through the window Tabitha is so happy! She says this is it the moment of Miguel's death that she has been waiting for! And she wants a ringside seat. So in she goes into the kitchen. Tabitha tells Grace that she knows it is late but she smelled such a wonderful smell that she just had to stop by. Grace tells her that it is the quiches that her and Charity have made. Grace says as a matter of fact I have one extra one why don't you take it Tabitha? Tabitha of course says she can't but she does and Grace pushes her out of the house almost. Oh well Tabitha says so I don't get my ring side seat I can watch from out here as Miguel has his last tortured moments. She smells the quiche and says it not her favorite but it's something to snack on. Inside the house Miguel is giving his piece of quiche and Charity and Kay sit and watch. Tabitha is outside and saying I've done it! Miguel is finally about to die!

Whitney doesn't buy this and tells Theresa that she is living in a dream world, to let her feelings go.

Sheridan's Cottage:
Sheridan is tossing and turning in bed when Luis comes in to check on her. He asks her what her secret is, what is haunting her. She just continues tossing in bed. He then goes into the living room, as there is a knock at the door, it is Sam Bennett. He tells Luis that he just stopped by for a minute to bring pictures from the crime scene so that he could write up his report. He asks Luis how he is feeling, he tells him okay, and then chief Bennett asks about Sheridan. Luis tells him that Sheridan had a little trouble last night with sleepwalking. That she walked to the mansion and was kneeling on the floor saying, "I did it again, I killed him, I didn't mean to do it again." Sam tells him that this is understandable, that she went through a lot last night. Luis doesn't think that this is the case; his gut is telling him it is something else. He tells Sam about Ethan coming over and knowing exactly where Sheridan would be. Sam explains this by saying that Sheridan probably just wanted to talk to Ethan. Luis doesn't agree with this either. He tells Sam that he knows it is something else, that something is pulling at his subconscious. He tells Sam that he is going to do what it takes to uncover the truth. Sam tells him that this isn't a good idea, that the Crane's will put a stop to it. Just then, they hear Sheridan in the bedroom, yelling, "no, I did it again, I am sorry" they rush in there. Sheridan is dreaming about when she is older and she sees a bloody sheet, and lifts it up to see the face. Luis begins to comfort her, telling her it is okay, that he is there. As they exit the room, Luis then again tells Sam that he is going to find out what is going on, that his cop instinct is telling him that there is more to the story, Sam asks him if it is really his cop instinct or his love for Sheridan. He tells Sam that he thinks that this case involves him that he has to find the answers.

Eve is looking for scientific evidence, and Sam is looking for more concrete evidence, but Sam is willing to just believe her -- she's his wife! Eve suggests that Grace get more rest -- she is under a lot of stress, and that's probably what caused her 'vision.' Grace tries to convince her that the angel was real, that her family is in danger, and people are keeping secrets from her. But of course she knows that Eve and Sam would never keep secrets from her...even though the angel told her they were doing it for (what they think are) the right reasons, but would hurt her no matter what. But if it isn't them, then who? Sam wants to know more, and she says that the angel said it had something to do with his son. Sam says Noah is fine, but Eve realizes that the angel was referring to Ethan. Grace goes out for air, and Sam tells Eve they need to talk. Eve sends him to Grace.

Eve is the only other person who knows the truth, and she won't betray them. Pilar tells Ivy to be careful -- she did a lot to make Eve vengeful. Ivy calls Eve to make sure she'll stay quiet -- Eve says she will, but there's a problem. She tells Ivy about Grace's vision, but Ivy thinks she's making it up, that she has told Sam the truth.

Charity tells him not before he and the "old bat" has done their (evil forces) bidding, if they can do anything without botching it up. Tabitha says it is not entirely their fault. Charity tells her to stop with the excuses, they will do exactly as she says. She says that if Miguel doesnt die tonight, they will. Miguel arrives and he and Charity leave to visit Chad. Timmy says that if Charity knew what was going to happen to Miguel that she would die. Tabitha says that after Miguels death Harmony will be all hers. They follow them to the Russell house.

Outside The Russell House:
Charity and Miguel arrive and run into Whitney, Theresa, Simone and Kay. After inquiring about Chad, Miguel goes to check the motorcycle. Tabitha and Timmy watch. Whitney tells Theresa that Chad didnt have any feelings for her. Theresa says that Chad is in love with her, the same way that Ethan is in love with her. Whitney says she is delusional. Theresa says that Gwen cares about Ethan, but she cares more about his money, his influence, and his last name. She says Gwen doesnt love Ethan the way she does. Gwen comes out of the house at the last of the conversation. Miguel works the motorcycle and Charity helps. Timmy is worried about how Charity will feel when she realizes what she has done to Miguel. Tabitha says that it will pull her over to the dark side. As they watch they notice the pendant is glowing again. Charitys eyes are red as she prepares to hit Miguel with a wrench.

Whitneys Room:
Chad tells Ethan he is going to marry Gwen knowing that he really loves Theresa. He says he will regret it when he looks back. Ethan tells him he will too. Chad says maybe its not too late for either one of them.

Outside The Russell House:
Gwen didnt hear the conversation and she compliments Whitney on her parents art collection. Gwen offers to help her get a museum exhibit. Miguel gets up before Charity can hit him. She tells him to go and dance with Kay, there is a song playing that she knows Kay loves. Charity, Timmy, and Tabitha prepare to work on the Motorcycle while they dance. Chad comes outside with Ethans help. Simone asks if he is planning to move out of their house. He says they will talk about it later. Gwen goes inside to make a call. Chad tries to find a song to play to get Ethan and Theresa together. As it begins playing, Ethan flashes back to Jazz club where he and Theresa danced. (Its the same song)

Sheridans Cottage:
Luis contemplates going into Sheridans session with Eve but Hanks warns him not to. Luis is worried that if it gets to heavy for her, there wont be anyone there to stop it. Hanks says that Sheridan is doing this voluntarily and that she and Eve know what they are doing. He says that if they prove there is a connection to Sheridans nightmares and his fathers disappearance he could finally get the answers hes being waiting for. Luis worries that he and Sheridan might find out the truth and regret it. Eve tells Sheridan that hypnosis can be very exhausting. She tells her the reason she cant remember what happened is that she has probably blocked it out. Hypnosis breaks down the barriers and frees that mind. Sheridan says that she and Luis both need to know the truth. Hank tells Luis not to worry because they dont know what Sheridan will remember. Luis says that if the shadow she sees in her dreams turns out to be his father, Sheridan could have been the last one to see him alive. He tells Hank he cant get over his fathers leaving. He has always been afraid that he would turn out to be just like Martin. Thats why he didnt marry Beth he was afraid hed do the same thing to her that his father did to his family. He needs to know the truth so he can he can go on with his life. Sheridan tells Eve that she is scared. She believes that the events of that night are the reasons behind her bad choices with men and her inability to find true love. She says that if that finding out what really happened that night helps her to find happiness and true love that it will be worth going through the hypnosis. Eves asks her what if it doesnt. Sheridan says it is a risk she has to take. Luis says there has to be a connection between that night and his fathers disappearance. He has to know the truth. Eve prepares to hypnotize Sheridan and tells her that she will take her back to the beginning of that night. They are recording the session because Sheridan wont remember anything that she has said while she is under. Sheridan wants Luis to hear it too. Eve puts her under and then goes out to get some water. Luis asks if he can look in on her and Eves says for a moment only. Luis goes in and tells Sheridan he wont let anything happen to her. Eve returns and Luis leaves. Eve takes her back to the night in her dreams. She asks her how she feels and she says she is scared. She sees a shadow but no face. She is hiding so he wont see her. She remembers holding a letter opener she took off the desk, and then she doesnt have it anymore. Eve asks where it went. The next thing Sheridan remembers standing over the body with blood on her hands. She cries out and Luis wants to go to her but Hank stops him. Eve tells her to calm down and gets her some water. Eve wonders if Sheridan killed someone and then Sheridan starts saying "I did it" over and over again. Sheridan flashes back to the voice telling her she is wicked, warning her to never tell anyone what happened. Meanwhile Hank asks Luis what he will do if Sheridan witnessed some kind of violence against his father. Luis says he will track them down and make sure they suffer the same fate he did. Eve asks Sheridan who was under the bloody sheet. She says she cant. Eve asks if she cant remember or if she cant tell. Sheridan says she promised to never tell anyone.

Outside The Russell House:
Timmy is outside working on Miguel's bike, trying to sabotage it. Tabitha is kissing up to Bad Charity, congratulating her on her wonderful ideas. And Good Charity will think she's responsible. Bad Charity says that by then it won't matter, because Charity will be on their side. The dark side! (They exchange high fives.) The demons tell Tabitha that if she'd done her job, they wouldn't have to possess Charity -- this is her and Timmy's last chance. They mess this up, they'll be dead just like Miguel will be. Tabitha rushes over to give Timmy a pep talk -- he better get this right, or they're dead! Timmy assures her that he's getting the job done. Suddenly oil starts spouting out of the bike!

Bad Charity looks like she's about to do something nasty when Miguel interrupts. He can't believe what he's seeing! Timmy, under his bike, covered in oil, with a wrench in his hand? Tabitha says she noticed oil on the driveway and used Timmy to save the cement, then put the wrench in his glove. Charity doesn't remember this, and Tabitha says she was listening to the music. Miguel says he's going to fix this -- working on his bike is his favorite thing to do...next to spending time with Charity. The two head off. Timmy comes back to life and asks Tabitha to help him get clean, and for a breath mint. Suddenly Charity has miraculously reappeared, and two voices come out of her mouth! (The deep one, and the chirpy happy one, and an even deeper one.) The demons are sick of playing second fiddle -- they'll kill Miguel themselves. They don't need Tabitha and Timmy anymore!

Charity is about to do away with the two of them when Miguel reappears. He says they'll dance together when he's done and clean. Charity says she's going to get some sodas, as T&T watch Miguel fix the bike. Tabitha says once Miguel dies and Charity comes over to the dark side, she'll have her powers back! Miguel says he's fixed the bike, and Tabitha manages to guilt Miguel into checking on Charity, then sets Timmy back to work re-sabotaging the bike. Timmy moans about having to work, but stops when the demon gives him heck. Bad Charity tells Charity that this is their last chance (squeaky voice), and that if they screw it up they'll wish they'd never been born (REALLY deep voice), and that he'd better hurry up and turn the motorbike into a killing machine (deep woman's voice). Timmy is finished re-sabotaging the bike, and Tabitha is full of glee. Now to find Miguel, and send him on a bogus errand.

Theresa approaches Ethan, and looks at him longingly (flashback to the bridal show). Ethan just looks at her, no particular emotion. Theresa asks him if he remembers the song, but he doesn't. He's heard it on the radio, but it means nothing to him. Theresa tells him that the song is very important to them, and begs him to dance with her. He says he shouldn't, and Theresa says that it's because he loves her and not Gwen. He tells her he doesn't love her. She says that then he should dance with her. He tries to dissuade her and let her down gently, telling her that he doesn't want to lead her on. Theresa keeps pressuring him, telling him that if he doesn't dance with her, she will know he's in love with her, because he is afraid to be close to her. Ethan looks like he's getting tired of the discussion. He agrees to dance with her, telling her that he has no romantic feelings for her. She says his dancing with her proves he loves her -- he finds her irresistible. He gives her the indulgent smile one would give a child, and tells her she's incorrigible. Ethan tells Theresa again that he is going to marry Gwen (she says he can't when he loves her, then interrupts when he tries to tell her that he doesn't love her). Theresa tells Ethan that if he can tell her he doesn't love her, she'll never pressure him again. If he doesn't love her, she will never bother him again. (Ethan flashbacks to his mother talking about the love between him and Gwen.) He tells her he doesn't love her. She tells him she's lying, but he says it's the truth -- he doesn't love her. Finally, reality starts to sink in, and Theresa realizes that he's telling the truth, and he's not in love with her. Viewers watch her heart break on screen as she realizes that all her lies and manipulations have gotten her no where -- Ethan is still in love with Gwen. As reality sinks in, Theresa runs off, seen by Tabitha and Timmy.

Miguel tells Kay she's a great dancer, and tells her that she's a woman -- a beautiful woman. She turns away, and he thinks he embarrassed her. Who knows what would have happened if Charity hadn't come to Harmony...and now Kay loves Reese! Kay turns to him, shocked, and Miguel excuses himself to go look for Charity. Simone comes up, and Kay tells her what just happened -- Miguel as much as said that if Charity hadn't come to Harmony...Simone tells Kay not to give up. Kay helped her get Chad, so now Simone will help her get Miguel. Suddenly Simone asks why Chad is over there with Whitney. (Kay has a flashback of overhearing Chad admit that he was thinking about Whitney when he said he loved Simone.) Kay tells her there's nothing to worry about.

Whitney wants to know why Chad insists on pushing Theresa and Ethan together when there is no hope. Chad says that the song influenced them last time...and they weren't the only ones. (Whitney has a flashback of dancing with Chad at the bridal show.) She says she has no idea what he's talking about, and he tells her that just because she has no idea what love is and doesn't believe it's worth fighting for, it doesn't mean he and Theresa don't. Whitney wants to know what he's talking about. Chad tells her to forget it -- he doesn't want her to think he's a wimp. Whitney wants to know where Chad got an idea like that (flashback to Kay telling Chad that Whitney laughs at touchy-feely guys).

Simone says she's going to go over there, but Kay stops her. She says to let them argue -- Whitney will drive Chad away on her own! Simone embraces Kay, and thanks her for being such a great friend and helping her get Chad. Kay thinks to herself that it was lying that did it, and she hopes that Chad and Whitney never uncover her lie about the eating disorder. Then Simone will lose Chad for sure, and Kay will lose Simone's help in getting Miguel. Watching Chad head inside, Kay tells Simone that she just knew that Whitney would drive Chad away, and pushes Simone toward the kitchen (and Chad).

Chad sees Ethan and Theresa dancing, and notices Gwen is about to come out. He rushes into the kitchen to stop Gwen from interrupting his manipulations. Whitney is left wondering what he was talking about. Kay tells her she knows all about it -- they talked about guys who tell girls they like them, and Chad said he hated those kind of wimps. Whitney doesn't believe her, but Kay says take it or leave it. She says that Chad hates pushy girls who always ask questions -- they're just after sex. That's why he likes Simone! (Flashback to Whitney asking Chad in the hospital why he risked his life to save hers. Flashback to Chad and Whitney fighting over Chad manipulating Ethan to be with Theresa in the Book Cafe.)

Gwen makes a joke about the caterer beeping her every minute, then goes to head out to where Theresa and Ethan are dancing. Chad grabs her and tells her she can't go out there, and she wants to know why. Chad acts all friendly, telling her that he wants her to tell her all about the Russells African art. She would be happy to (she loves African art), and they are heading off when Simone comes in and says she knows all about it. She takes them off to show them the pieces.

Theresa runs into Whitney, telling Whitney that Ethan has told her he doesn't love her. And he was so cold and matter of fact when he said it! She continues to run off, and Whitney says she needs to find Chad -- this is all his fault! Theresa continues to run, and sees Miguel's bike...Chad wants to know what just happened, and Ethan says he told Theresa the truth, that he doesn't love her. Chad says he just made the biggest mistake of his life...Chad wants to know what he's talking about. Miguel comes out to notice his bike is missing. T&T are shocked, and Bad Charity is less than pleased. T&T don't know where it is, but they do know it's a death trap.

Chad makes up some junk about Ethan saying he didn't want to throw the garter, and Gwen says that they should do it. She thinks Ethan should throw the garter to Chad, so he can find new love. Gwen asks Ethan to come inside so she can show him the Russells African art collection (TC is going to have kittens when he finds out Ethan Crane was trooping through his house). Chad tells Ethan not to make the mistake they talked about. Ethan looks like he's sick of dealing with the situation, and heads into the house to be with Gwen. Chad hobbles off, where Whitney confronts him, and tells him what happened. Chad says he knows, and he feels real bad about it. Whitney says this is all his fault. Chad is the one who manipulated the situation -- Chad might as well have put a gun to her heart and pulled the trigger!

Timmy is calling for the bike ('Here, bikey bikey. Here, bikey bikey.') Bad Charity wants to know what the hell happened. How do you lose a motorcycle? Miguel comes out and says there's no sign of it. Maybe someone borrowed it to ride around the block. He asks Charity to help him look for it. Timmy says that nothing on the bike works, and the two look very worried.

Sheridan's Cottage:
Hank asks Luis what he'll do if he finds out Sheridan's nightmares are connected to his father's disappearance, and Luis says that he'll make sure the person suffers the same fate that befell his father. Eve is pressing Sheridan for the name of the person and the full events of what happened that night, but Sheridan just keeps saying it's her fault. Suddenly Luis lunges for the door -- Hank tries to hold him back, to keep him from upsetting Sheridan more. He bangs on the door, telling Eve to stop. Sheridan keeps crying 'I killed him! I killed him!' Eve realizes that if Luis learns that Martin could be connected to Sheridan's nightmares, it could ruin their chances to be together (like her dating Hank won't?), and says she can't let that happen -- she needs to wake Sheridan up. The two burst in -- Hank says he tried to stop him, but Luis says he wants to know what she said.

Eve asks how much they heard, and is relieved to learn it was nothing specific. She explains that Sheridan's reaction is totally normal, and reams Luis out for bursting in. Hank tries to get Luis out of there, so Eve can do her job and 'cure' Sheridan's nightmares. They leave, and Eve tells her to relax -- she'll be back in a moment, and they'll find out the truth about that night. Eve leaves Sheridan's room and heads over to lecture Luis -- she can't do her job if he keeps interrupting. He says fine, as long as she tells him what happens in there. Eve says that normally doctor-patient privilege would preclude that, but since Sheridan has waived it, she will tell her when she's finished -- she wants to have the whole story first, but Luis is trying to force her to spit it out. Hank interjects, telling Luis that Eve wants the whole story first. He tells Eve that Luis backed away from Beth because he was worried he'd run out on them like his father did on their family. Luis says that now he thinks his father was killed, and whoever did it will be punished. Sheridan is wandering around crying, saying, 'I killed him!'

Eve tells Luis to stay out of Sheridan's room -- as her doctor, she will handle it. Again Luis tries to force Eve to talk. Hank tells him to calm down -- Eve has said she wants to get the whole story, and Luis needs to respect that. Hank is obviously still being betrayed by his best friend and girlfriend. Eve tells Luis no more interruptions, and goes back into Sheridan's room, where she is still crying by the window. Eve tells Sheridan they're going to go back to that night, so Sheridan can tell her exactly what she sees. Again she asks, 'Who was under the sheet?' (Flashback to the bloody hands.) Sheridan keeps saying it was so horrible, and Eve says she hopes remembering doesn't destroy Sheridan. Eve again pushes Sheridan for the identity of the person under the bloody sheet. Sheridan says she knows him, she knows the person she killed. Eve tells Sheridan that everything is riding on this -- who's the dead guy under the sheet?

Hank confronts Luis about his feelings for Sheridan (he is clearly angry to learn that his girlfriend and best friend are two-timing him). What will Luis do when Sheridan uncovers her past? Luis thinks they'll be better around each other. Hank wants to know if Luis thinks it will give him a clean slate...Luis says that no matter what, this will change everything. Eve wants to know who Sheridan saw. She says he used to come to the mansion all the time to talk to Julian and Alistair. She saw him almost every day! (Flashback to young Sheridan pulling the sheet back to look at the body's face.) Sheridan cries out that she killed Martin Fitzgerald!

On A Street In Harmony:
Sobbing too hard to be paying attention to the road, Theresa is driving Miguel's motorcycle (helmetless). Theresa is clearly not paying much attention to where she's going, and is driving in the wrong lane. Suddenly a car honks, and Theresa looks up. There's nothing she can do! She screams as the headlights of the other vehicle are on her. (Freeze frame on her shocked face.)

The demon inside Charity has to come up with another plan because Theresa took the motorcycle. Timmy gets mad and rips the pendent off Charity's neck. Later Whitney dreams off Chad kissing her and then she wakes up and starts walking toward Chad. Before she could get there Kay came running to her. Kay said that Whitney's phone was ringing and she went inside. Kay went to Chad and told him that Whitney said she hated the song he was playing. Charity who was totally out of it said she sees death.

Sheridans Cottage:
Luis brings Sheridan a cup of herbal tea to calm her nerves. Sheridan says she is sorry for causing so much trouble. Hank tells her that anybody would be shaken up after going through hypnosis. Julian agrees and says that he doesnt put much stock in such useless mumbo jumbo. Sheridan says that she would do it all again because finding out the truth behind her nightmares is more important than anything else to her. Luis tells her that no matter what happened, its not her fault because she was just a little girl. He says that when Eve comes out they will see if she remembered who was under the sheet. Julian says its all pure hogwash, but Luis disagrees. He tells Julian that if he finds out who is responsible for his fathers disappearance, they will suffer the same way his family did. Sheridan flashes back to the blood on her hands and drops her teacup. Julian tells them that this farce has gone on long enough. He says that Sheridan is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He says that Luis' job is to protect people, not harm them. He also tells him that his father abandoned his family after he was caught stealing from the Cranes, but Luis doesnt buy it. Julian says he doesnt want Luis dragging Sheridan into his family's embarrassment but Sheridan defends Luis by saying it was her idea. She tells Julian that she doesnt believe it is a coincidence that her nightmares started the same night that Martin disappeared. Julian says that Sheridan didnt see anything that night, that it was just a nightmare. Luis says that Julian is terrified of the truth coming out. Julian and Luis almost come to blows. Julian starts playing the concerned brother and Hank and Luis go out for some air. Julian tries to talk Sheridan out of talking to Eve but she wont listen. Outside Hank tells Luis that he thinks Julian is right and Luis asks him which side is he on. Hank thinks that they are headed for trouble. Hes worried that Sheridan will have a breakdown, not a break through. Luis believes that Sheridan witnessed something between Alistair, Julian, and Martin.

Sheridan comes out and Hank leaves. He tells her the story behind the roses that his father planted outside of the cottage. He thanks Sheridan for going through the hypnosis and tells her how brave she is. He also tells her she is different from the rest of her family and that he respects her. He says he hopes she is always a part of his life. Luis hopes that they can move forward after putting this behind them. Julian tries to leave but Luis spots him. Sheridan leaves them alone.

Meanwhile Alistair tells Eve to revel what she learned it Sheridans session which surprises Eve. She thought he was calling to threaten her. Alistair tells Eve that Sheridan and Luis have a right to know what happened. Eve tells Alistair that he doesnt know the extent of what Sheridan remembered, but he says he does. He repeats to Eve exactly what Sheridan said and then he tells Eve that Sheridans memory was probably jogged enough that she remembers the name of the victim, Martin Fitzgerald. Eve cant believe that Alistair knew the truth all this time. He says it is time Luis knew the truth, that Sheridan killed his father. Eve tells him that what happened all those years ago was murder and that he and Julian will go down for hiding the truth. She says that once this story breaks it will be all over the news and Alistair says he is prepared for the truth to come out. Eve plans to tell Luis everything. Before she hangs up Alistair asks a favor, he wants her to be gentle with Sheridan. Eve says she is glad to hear him says that and that she is glad that he can accept the consequences of his actions. Alistair tells her that he is happy someone shares the same value system that he does. He then talks about her old addictions and the baby she gave up. He says that her family will have to suffer the consequences as his family. Eve calls him a bastard and tells him to go to hell.

Miguel asks her if she thinks that Ethan will marry Theresa instead. He tells her that this is the real world and that if Theresa gets her heart broken again, he doesnt know what will happen to her. Charity tells him that nobody can stop love, but Miguel says the Crane's will never accept Theresa. Charity becomes quiet and tells Miguel that something bad is going to happen. The feeling passes and Charity says she still believes that true love will win out. Miguel says that the Crane's reaction to Theresa and Ethan will be nothing compared to Luis'. Chad is happy that things are working out for Theresa, but Whitney doesnt believe it. She is afraid that Gwen will go after Theresa instead of Ethan. Ethan finds Gwen and tries to explain, but she says she knows whats going on. Ethan tells her she doesnt understand. Gwen tells Ethan that she talked to the nurse and that she does understand. She thinks its wonderful that Ethan was there for Theresa. She thinks that Theresa was so out of it that she thought Ethan was Chuck. She says she is lucky to be marrying a real hero. She tells him he saved Theresas life. The nurse tells them that they all can go home, that they should let Theresa rest. Chad cant believe what Gwen has said. Ethan says that he loves both of them. He says that what he feels for Gwen is not the same as what he feels for Theresa, but it is real and it means something to him and Gwen.

Ethan says he has to think it through, but Chad tells him to follow his heart. Ethan and Gwen leave. Whitney goes to check on Theresa and Chad follows. Theresa is saying Ethans name over and over. Chad says that Theresa thinks about Ethan all the time, even in her sleep. Chad tells her that Ethan said he loved both Gwen and Theresa.
