Against Molly's wishes, Abigail told Adam about Molly's ghostly visions of Vicky at Jake's apartment. When Molly arrived home, she was upset to find the both of them there along with Adam's paranormal "ghost finding" equipment.

Jake met with Ben to discuss the possibility of Molly's visions possibly being related to her prior head injury. Ben suggested running a battery of tests on her. When Jake came home, he was skeptical of Adam's ghostly instruments, but Adam left his ghost meter in the apartment anyway. Molly was apprehensive when Jake informed her he had made an appointment for her with Ben to run tests, but agreed to go through with them. When she bent down to examine Adam's ghost meter, she was terrified to find the needle waving madly, which was supposed to indicate the presence of a ghost.

Katie went to Craig's apartment to retrieve the rest of her belongings and caught Carly rummaging through Craig's briefcase. While she was there, Carly received another visitor--Hal, who came to warn her not to come between Jack and Julia. She received a phone call from Jack while Hal was there but pretended to be talking to Molly. As Katie was leaving, she slyly informed Hal that his wife was having a cozy lunch downstairs with Craig.

Barbara and Craig had a very friendly lunch together at the Lakeview. She was surprised and delighted when Craig gave her the envelope containing the newspaper photo of Julia and Winston Lowe. Their lunch was interrupted when Hal walked up to the table and demanded to know what was going on.

At the farm, Emma was overjoyed to hear the news that Jack and Julia are expecting a baby. Jack was very distracted and excused himself to make a private phone call regarding police business. Julia walked up to him during the phone call and was alarmed to hear Carly's voice on the other end of the line.
