On the cruise, Mike is amazed to see Simon is Vienna's boyfriend and takes a swing at him. Katie acts surprised, too, but Mike begins to realize that Katie already knew that Simon was on board. She takes Mike back to their cabin and explains to him about the massage, saying she hid Simon in the bathroom when Mike came back because she knew how upset he'd be if he saw Simon. Katie tells Mike she does not have any feelings for Simon any more, and he says he realizes that, that he's not jealous or insecure; it's just that Simon is bad news. Katie tells him she knows that now, that years ago, she wanted a fairy tale with Simon, but now she wants a real man in a real life and that she loves Mike more than she's ever loved anyone before. They kiss.

Meanwhile, Simon tells Vienna that Katie was his wife, and she asks if she was the "one who got away." Simon says yes, but Vienna tells him all that matters is the present. She strips to her undergarments, but as she and Simon kiss, she begins to feel seasick and has to go to the bathroom. Simon asks if she wants motion sickness pills, and she says later, when she can keep them down, so he leaves to go to the bar.

Katie tells Mike she's starving, since they never ate dinner, and that she's going to the bar to get a bottle of champagne and all the hors d'oeuvres she can carry. When she walks into the bar, she sees Simon, who has picked up a guitar and is playing a song.

Back in Oakdale, Gwen takes Jade to Carly's place, explaining why she and Will are staying there, and she offers to let Jade stay there, too. Jade is reluctant to take her up on the offer, but Gwen convinces her to go upstairs and at least take a nice hot shower, which they both do. Afterward, Jade apologizes to Gwen for the mistakes she made when she was trying to help Will with school, and Gwen tells her she forgives her. Gwen asks her about seeing Lily at the hospital, but Jade says she can't talk about that. The doorbell rings, and Gwen goes upstairs to get money for the pizza, asking Jade to answer the door. It's Will, who is angry to see Jade standing there in pajamas. Jade tells Will that she's not after him, that Gwen asked her to stay after finding out from Will that she was homeless since she lost her job at the library. Gwen comes outside and asks Jade to check out the boys' bedroom, where she can sleep; after Jade goes in, Gwen asks Will what he's so upset about. Will says he doesn't want Jade anywhere near them; Gwen says she thought Will wanted her, Casey, and Maddie to give Jade a break and try to help her. She says she's forgiven both Will and Jade for the whole school cheating thing, so unless there's something else going on, Jade should at least spend the night. Will agrees. Jade comes down and offers to leave, but Will says it's okay if she stays.

Dusty and Jennifer are in Bob's office, still talking about Emily. Jenn leaves as Paul comes in; Paul tells Dusty he's there to help him. Paul tries to convince Dusty to let him handle Emily, but Dusty tells Paul, "no deal."

Susan brings Daniel in to visit Emily, telling her that Tom and Margo are taking him on a short vacation and wanted her to say goodbye before they left. They hug and talk, and Jennifer walks in and watches them, sympathizing with Emily's desire to see her son. When Daniel says he heard his mom had done something good, Jennifer tells him that she did. Jennifer tells Emily that she's a good mother, and then she leaves. Emily tells her mom that maybe Jennifer is starting to feel empathy for Emily, and Susan agrees.

At Tom and Margo's house, they are getting ready to leave for their trip to Chicago, and Casey tries to hurry them out the door when Maddie arrives, which makes Tom and Margo suspicious. Maddie covers by saying she was bringing Casey his work hours at Crash, then she leaves, but Margo and Tom tell Casey now they're concerned about leaving him home alone for the next few days. Margo reminds Casey that Maddie is a minor. He tells them he's learned his lesson from his experience with Gwen and that he'll act responsibly from now on; somehow, this convinces Tom and Margo that it's okay to leave, so they depart. Casey calls Maddie and tells her to wait 30 minutes before coming back over. When someone knocks on the door, Casey opens it, expecting to see Maddie, but instead, it's a young man who tells him his name is Dallas Griffin and that he's looking for Margo. Casey says she's out of town for a few days, and Dallas turns to leave. He literally runs into Maddie, who looks at him with recognition, and Dallas says, "Maddie! It's been a long time."

Jennifer goes back to Bob's office and tells Paul and Dusty that Emily has begun to make amends. Paul says Emily is a loose cannon, and Dusty says she's a dangerous woman. Tom shows up, looking for his dad while Margo goes to get Daniel; Jennifer asks him when Emily's sentencing hearing is, saying she might want to put in a good word for Emily because of what she's done for Johnny. Tom tells her it will be after he returns to town, and then he leaves. Jennifer begs Dusty to reconsider pressing charges against Emily, telling him that keeping her from her son is not the way to help her get better. He tells her that he loves her and Johnny, but there's no way he's going to let Emily go free. Jennifer is very distraught, and then she faints into Dusty's arms.
