Scene 2: Allison walks across the Peyton Square, swinging her handbag, and runs into Rodney on his motorcycle. She almost gets hit by an Interstate Bus Lines bus but Rodney grabs her in the nick of time. He scolds her and she replies, "Why should you care?" He roars off. Scene 3: At the General Store, Norman tells Eli that he and Rodney had a fight. He explains to Eli that they were just too honest with each other in bringing up the past with Joe Chernak. Eli says that brothers brewing is a waste. He somewhat quotes the bible: "A brother that is put off is harder to get over than a scaling wall." Proverbs 18:19 Scene 4: Allison goes into Ann Howard's therapy room to apologize for her shocking reaction to Ann's confession of being accused of blinding Chris. For once Allison shows some wisdom and states that Ann might stir up even worse trouble by searching for the truth. Suddenly Ann gets an ominous phone call and rushes out of the therapy room, leaving Allison to her thoughts. Scene 5: Rodney shows up at the Shoreline Garage and berates Lee for adding up a bill in error. Lee says that he is a mechanic not an Einstein. Lee asks Rodney if he is still dating Allison, because Chris has designs on her and he doesn't want him to get hurt. Rodney states that Allison isn't that kind of girl. Lee responds that he never knew a girl that didn't leave a ring in the nose of one guy while looking for another. Finally Lee asks the question, "How long is it going to be before you dumps the toy, your garage?" They argue and Rodney threatens to fire Lee. Lee replies that Rodney needs him because he reminds him of Joe Chernak. He says that Rodney needs to help a "Joe Chernak" type to lessen his guilt. But the real reason Rod keeps Lee is because "Rodney doesn't know the difference between a brake shoe and an ice skate" as he pointed out in an earlier episode. Scene 6: Back at the mansion, Peyton is seated at a chessboard. Hannah expresses her continued concern about Brian Colby. Martin gloats that Brian has always continued to cash the monthly checks that silence him about his hidden son. Hannah is worried that Brian could possibly see Steven and spill the frijoles. Peyton provokes Hannah. Hannah slaps Peyton. Hannah says that she is going to talk to Steven. She has decided to confess. Peyton forbids it. She rushes out to the dismay of Peyton. Scene 7: In Steven's office, Ann Howard is sobbing because she has learned that her father is dying. She says that she can't face her father alone and she wants Steven to be with her.
