Mason mentions that rather the high rate of his condemnation is giving him this respect. There is a rumour that he has only come from LA to Santa Barbara for the case against his stepmother. Steve says that the charge will be certainly murder asking Mason if he does not want to overtake the case for her as Lee is not in the town or if he also is giving this case no chance. Mason stands up and goes.
Lionel has got endless letters with all kinds of suggestions for his problem. Augusta tells him that the phone is running hot too and people are making fun of them.

Why not going along like in old times and save it for later it will make the more joy to them. Jack finds that he also is hungry. Julia mentions that Minx has told her some very good restaurants. Jack is shocked to hear that Minx knows about her stay. Julia calms him down and tells that she did not tell it to her but only was asking a general question in case she will go one day to Vienna. Jack asks her to get ready he is only making a phone.
Jack gives on phone the order to kill the real Jack Lee. He also should know that even his old friend Julia has fallen into love to him and he has overtaken all his important positions.
In New Stailand, Lee is starting to get killed by torturing him. He mentions to the men in charge of this business that he did not tell to them the whole truth about Julia and so she will find out and blow up their whole fraud. He will not tell it to them as it is his life security.
Eden and Cruz are having a nice talk with the VIP lady and persuade her to give in custody the jewelry. She agrees by simply giving it into the hand of Cruz and rushes away for her date. They have no chance any more to tell her that this is not the way to do it. Eden all of a sudden hears the faucet dropping. She calls for Cruz. Cruz is putting down the box and tries to stop the faucet from dripping without much success. He finds this is not his job. Meanwhile a thief is entering the room and taking out of the box a valuable necklace. He then locks the room. Eden and Cruz want to go but notice that the door is locked. Cruz says that this is no problem and pulls down the handle which falls off and he is holding the whole handle in his hand. Eden shouts but nobody hears.

Brick and Amy are phoning around till they find out the hotel where Jack Lee is staying. Tintenfass comes and Brick and Amy all of a sudden see Julia and Jack Lee coming into the restaurant where Tintenfass is the leading waiter.

Lionel finished the preparation of his drink and searches for an olive for a better taste. Meanwhile a thirsty Augusta comes and drinks it proceeding to the shopping centre. Lionel is shocked to find his glass empty and wonders who it could have drunken. He starts again with his horse in search for the ingredients of his drink.
The main waiter calls for Christy to serve some food to Steve. Christy does not want to go and when the waiter insists she is taking off her apron. Ted tries to calm her down but Steve comes and tells him that he has to talk to his sister. He tells her that she should believe that they all love her and they are one family. She should not run away all the time. He suggest to rent together a beach house. She can take care for the household and they would live nicely together as brother and sister.
Eden and Cruz are waiting already for two hours but their lady is no more coming back. Eden asks Cruz something to do with the faucet. Cruz turns it around and it gets loosen and stream of water pours out like a spring and makes Eden totally wet. Cruz laughs and tries to stop it with a towel. He asks Eden to undress in not getting a cold which she tells him she will certainly not do before him.
Julia and Jack get served a wrong meal. Jack is upset and tells Julia that he will then possible charge him for two wine and 4 meals. Julia wonders why he is so upset as he is having anyway enough money and this will not kill him. Amy and Brick are more than happy in receiving this wonderful meal and eat from each plate. Brick asks Tintenfass if he can't arrange it that they are talking to Julia the lady sitting with Lee without getting noticed by Lee.
Jack has to phone and Tintenfass brings Julia to Amy and Brick. She gets to know all about Renfro and that Lee is standing behind all. Julia confesses that she is quite sure that he is not the real Jack Lee. She informs them that the baby is not in Vienna but might be there where she is going now with Lee. She tells them about the trip with the train to Lidabruch and the travel to an island she has forgotten. She gets the phone number from Tintenfass and makes an appointment for meeting each other in this garden for further discussion of the coming trip.
Maggie, Warren and Mason are waiting for the witness which Warren searched out. He comes and tells all what he knows what turns out as not such a good help they are in need for. He tells them that beside Ben there is only another witness but he has changed his name. He can be found easily because of the black glove he has always to wear at the side of his burned hand.
Lionel is back with his horse when Augusta with a great longing is approaching him. He finds out that she was the person who has drunken his mixture and thinks that at least it works. He starts over in preparing and drinking it. The drink seems to have another effect with him than with Augusta. He all of a sudden feels very tired and falls asleep.
Cruz is shaving his face while Eden sits in the tub. Eden wants him to throw a towel to him but he tells her that he has used them all up in drying the floor. She finds that he is always has been so egotistical in their relationship. Cruz reminds her that they are no more together. She asks him why he still wears the ring.
Jack tries his best to put Julia into a good mood by telling her all kind of lovely compliments. Julia tells him to keep them for their travel with the train. She ask him why they have to reach the destination by night if they can't take a plane. Jack tells her because there is no airport on the island. She wonders what so many important persons are having to do on such an island. More for himself Jack replies that because now the fulfilment of all their work is coming. The plan is developed already over ten years.
Brick and Amy go on enjoying the garden and the music. Tintenfass comes and plays with his violin while they dance.
Cruz takes the ring from his finger and throws it to Eden over the separating little wall. His face is still full of shaving foam. He waits for Eden's reaction. Eden takes the ring looks at it and starts crying.

She will try to find out where they are going and by which train. Amy tells her that she does not mind who he is but she only wants her baby. All of a sudden Jack is knocking at the door and calling for Julia with a strong voice.
Steve tells Christy he only wants to make sure if she has kept their little secret for herself. He is having a job as an official and he can't afford that such things get public. She tells him that she is not a child. He says yes she is much more mature and he loves her more than before. If she only would know how much he loves her then she would react in another way to him and she should let her fingers from the young boys hinting to Ted. Christy escapes and on seeing Ted she asks him to go to another restaurant. Steve sits down next to Santana at the bar and tries to overplay his unsuccessful approach. He says hello to her and is at once put down by Santana's way of reply. Santana gets up and Steve goes behind her.
Sophia and CC are just on coming in. Santana talks to CC because of her situation in relation to Brandon but CC is not listening to her. Neither to her advances against Gina nor to her request to get some access to Brandon. Meanwhile Steve is informing Sophia that she is having only 24 hours time to name another lawyer as a replacement of Jack Lee otherwise they are giving one from their side. Sophia asks him why he is so much in a hurry. He tells her that their constitution is granting a quick and fair legal proceeding. She tells him not to worry she is having a substitution for Lee more quickly than he expects.
Ted is wondering why Christy all of a sudden wants to go when she herself decided to eat here. Christy asks him to bring her home.
Sophia tells CC that she would like to take Mason as her lawyer till Lee is coming. CC is against this idea as he is leading a proceeding against him but Sophia finds that Mason is a part of their family. CC just wants to tell another objection when Mason comes in. He makes a nice complement to Sophia about her good outlook and tells CC while putting down his sign that for every law advice he is asking for money. CC turns his eyes up in disapproval of his behaviour.
Julia hides quickly Amy and Brick in her bathroom and opens the door. Jack asks her if she would like to go and see the city to get in the right mood. She tells him why they not doing it at once. Jack agrees with joy but she tells him that she would like to go with him to his room as he is having a better view outside which will add to her mood. Jack takes her to his room.
Kelly helps Nick to put on the dress coat. Kelly loves to see him in it. He fears it will tear every moment into pieces because of its age. Kelly tells him that it anyway only has to hold till the marriage. Afterwards they do not need dresses at all as far as she knows. Nick looks alarmed. Kelly goes to dress herself with the marriage dress.
Mason wants to know what they were talking about him. Sophia asks CC if she can ask him and CC agrees. She asks him if he is willing to overtake her case till Jack Lee is back. Mason tells CC that he feels very honoured that he is helping him to make career but if he knows that there will be a conflict of interests as another client of him is charging him? CC says that he knows this and Mason tells him that he has to think over and will let him know how he has decided.
Kelly is very happy about her dress. Nick finds her also very beautiful. Kelly finds that he looks like a prince from a fairy tale. Kelly wants to marry Nick but she does not know how one is doing it. Nick gives a joke speech imitating a priest including the rabbit as a witness. Kelly is getting at once serious and tells him that the groom and the bride are he and she. Nick at once stops and tells her that he only goes on if it is clear for her that it is only a game. She tells him that she knows and now he should go on showing her how a marriage is done. He goes on playing with her the marriage agreement. Kelly does not want to miss the kiss which follows. She turns on the piano and starts dancing with him while he again and again reminds her that it is only game.
Brick and Amy are sitting in Julia's room and thinking over their whole situation trying to get the puzzle together. Why did Renfro and Lee put total control over her and for what did they kidnap the baby? They don't come to an end. Brick thinks that Julia will find it out. Amy feels sorry for Julia but Brick thinks that she can take care for herself very well.
Julia and Jack are standing on the balcony. Jack is getting again very passionate. Julia tells him that first of all he has to prove that he still loves her. He tells her that he will prove it to her in such a way that she never will forget it. She no more will escape him. Julia asks him why he thinks that she wants to run away from him.
CC tells Sophia that it was a mistake to take Mason as a lawyer. Sophia shows up some strength and counters his point. He does not want to fight with her and accepts her wish. He tells her that he is having headache in the last time very often. Maybe it is because of the pangs of conscience he is having in acting so hard against Gina. He wanted to have her out of the house. And then Kelly, their baby. Both get into a soft mood and they start embracing each other. Rosa comes in and says sorry for disturbing them but Mason has come.
CC asks Mason how he has decided. Mason tells him that he first would like to see the file and have a drink together. CC is making him the drink and leaves. The doorbell rings. Mason opens. It is Mary introducing herself as Christy DuVall's sister. Mason seems to be at once attracted to her.
Christy is sitting in a very sexy dress at the bar. The barkeeper warns her that she will get difficulties in this kind of outlook. She tells him that she knows what she is doing. A man is addressing her and she enters his approach asking him where they are going. He tells her to him and she asks him to pay her the drink. He pays and goes out with her.
Julia was making Jack drunken and then she asks him where they are going. He tells her that they are going to a little island. There is actually nothing but a big source of not yet explored mineral oil. Julia tells him that she is impressed but what they are going to do there? Jack tells her that they are going to a coronation and she and he will be guests of honour. Then forgetting himself he adds that nobody was thinking that he will manage this. But he has reached this goal. It was the biggest clue in his life. Julia wants to know how they will reach the island. He tells her that they are going with the train as he already told her with a sleeping coach. He starts kissing her in a way she makes her shout. She tells him that he knows that she does not like this. Jack says sorry he has forgotten. She asks him to take a shower and sleep and then tomorrow they will have it so much nicer in the train. Jack goes to the bathroom and Julia is now absolutely sure that it is not Jack Lee.
The man is coming on to Christy outside the bar when Steve appears and saves her by knocking him down. He tells her that she must know that he is always here for her and nobody else should own her. He tells her that he will bring her home with his car.
Kelly comes back from a walk. She has set free Brigit the rabbit. Nick finds it great that she has done this. Kelly tells him that she would like to set him also free as something is also holding him like in a cage but she can't help him.
Steve asks Christy while driving if she is alright. He will be always there to protect her. He tells her how much he loves her. He would never hurt her. He tries to kiss her but she avoids it asking him to bring her home.
Julia goes back to her room and passes on her information to Brick and Amy. Brick asks Julia if she can't arrange it for them to get into the train. Julia agrees to try her best to make this possible.
Kelly is leaning against Nick on the sofa and sleeps. Nick is softly declaring his love to her. That he was loving her since he has seen her. She is right he really is like in a prison as he is able to tell her all this only while she is sleeping. Kelly is having meanwhile a wonderful dream where they marry. Kelly wakes up and tells him that she was having a wonderful dream. Nick says softly he knows.
Mason tries to offer Mary all kind of drinks which she is not accepting. Mason finally asks if she wants to have some mineral water which she accepts. Mason is telling her all kind of compliments about her charm, about her wonderful face, her good figure. She tells him that he might be surprised but there are people who feel uncomfortable in getting such compliments. Mason tells her she only has to say one word and he will be her servant. She tells him that there will be certainly some occasions where he can serve the society. Mason tells her that he was doing this once when being the assistant of the public prosecutor but he was thrown out of his job. She tells him that the job she is doing is safe for getting noticed. Mason is getting very curious about her job. They get interrupted as Christy is coming in. Mary tells Christy that she has something to do in Santa Barbara and will find it great if they can eat together. Christy tells her that she finds this great they can eat the next day as for now she has to take care for Brandon. Mary adds that she also invited Steve. Mason asks Mary in which hotel she is staying. On mentioning a cheap motel he tells her that this is not a good place to stay as it is used only by prostitutes. He will arrange at once for her a room in the Capwell hotel. Mary objects but he tells her that she can take it as already done.
Mason meets CC in the office and tells him that he is overtaking the case but he wants to make it clear that he is doing this only for Sophia. Mason goes and CC sits down holding his head in pain.
Kelly wakes up alone on the sofa and starts searching for Nick. She goes along the sunny street and wonders where he can be. Nick slowly comes from the backside with a bunch of flowers and takes her into his arms dancing along the street with her and kissing her softly between till they reach the house and enter it together in full happiness.

Brick asks Amy to remain in the hotel room for having a good rest while he
is going with Julia to check up the situation at the station. Amy asks if
it is not possible that Jack will return early but Julia tells her
that he is busy at least for the next hour. Amy thinks that the best would
be now a shower. She starts undressing herself.
Maggie is phoning in Warren's office one number after another getting through whole Santa Barbara in order to find the witness. Warren reads an anonymous letter he has gotten. Somebody claims in having donated anonymously for the room no. 400 of the Capwell hotel a sum of $80.000 to this organisation signing with Robin Hood.
Cruz and Eden's dresses got dry and both are again dressed up. Cruz looks fresh and nicely shaved. Yet no changes in their fighting moods. Eden makes a joke about that inspector Cruz Castillo is looked up in a bathroom. Cruz finds she should stop as he anyway is more than stressed.
Amy is already undressed when Jack Lee knocks at the door calling for Julia. He knows that she is inside. Amy quickly locks herself in the bathroom and turns on the shower. Jack breaks into the room and then starts asking Julia to let him into the bathroom. He starts undressing himself and telling her that he will break the door if she does not let him in. Poor Amy sees no other way than to fix the towel around herself and to balance to Jack Lee's room over the sill conecting the two windows of the bathrooms.
Maggie tries still to reach Morgan Malone the witness. At one of her last five phone numbers she gets a strange reply. She tells the lady on the phone that she is a friend of Morgan and the lady on the phone tells her that she is not and breaks their connection. Warren meanwhile phones to a charity organisation asking if they have received a big donation in the last days. They don't know about and he gives them his number to phone back in case they have received some. Maggie tells Warren about the strange phone call. They search out the street where the lady is living and go to drive there.
Cruz wonders why he is always coming in such situations only when he is together with her. Their disputes starts again over till Eden puts the bench in the middle of the bathroom asking him to remain on the other side. Cruz shouts to her over the little seperation wall that she is acting like a little child. He stumbles and falls with the whole wall to her feet. He sits down desperate at the bench which she puts again aginst the wall. Eden sits down next to him in silence.
Jack takes out his credit card and tries his luck in getting into the bathroom with this card.
Warren and Maggie ring the bell and a woman is opening asking them fearful what they want. On hearing that Maggie is the wife of Ben she gets more friendly but her husband is shouting for his beer. She asks them to meet her at five o'clock in a restaurant nearby. They agree.
Amy on hearing Julia and Brick coming back guides them into Jack's room and tells quickly what happened. Julia climbs to the bathroom and undresses quickly herself. Jack wants to break in now with full force. She puts a towel around her and opens the door while Jack with the whole force falls into the bathroom and nearly out of the window.
Jack asks her why she did not reply. Julia tells him that she was answering but he did not hear it seems as the shower was on. She tells him that the bathroom is a holy place for her and even he would be the president of America she would not like to have him in. She gives him a kiss and pushes him out again.
Brick tells Amy about the sitution at the train. It is totally secured with security officers. No chance to get in. They are loading and loading endless things into it as if they are going to have a festival. Amy tells him that Jack shouted through the door of the bathroom that on the first evening they are having a fancy dress ball. Brick considers it a good chance to mix under the people. He shows himself for the first time pessimistic concerning their situation at the station and hopes that Julia finds a way out. Somebody knocks at the door. It is the service bringing the ordered food for the evening party which Jack has organised for his VIP friends. Brick signs for Lee and both are starting to eat as they are very hungry.
Warren and Maggie meet the woman in the restaurant. He has been her husband but after the accident he changed a lot his nature. He got a persecution mania and stopped working. He got from somewhere money but she never got to see the check. She moved out for two days hoping that he will think over his behaviour in sitting at home the whole day and not working but when she returned he has packed his whole things and left the city. Later she heard that he has changed his name but she does not know to what name. After their divorce he wrote to her from different locations telling her that she should not feel guilty and all is alright as it is. She is now married again and does not want them to disturb her again as she has told to them now everything. She gets up and leaves.
Nell Carter the VIP-lady has finished her longest lunch since years with her old friend. He suggests to her to prolong their stay together and go to the beach. She agrees and only wants to go to her room to change her shoes. When she enters the room Eden starts shouting and knocking at the door asking her to open. Miss Carter wonders what they are doing there and thinks at once that something must be not alright. She looks into her box and finds that her diamond necklace was no more in it. Cruz tells her that he is sorry to tell her that it seems that while they were on looking at the dripping faucet somebody has entered the room locked them up and stolen her necklace. Nell Carter starts laughing. Eden and Cruz join in. She tells them that this is a good joke. Eden carefully tells her that this is not a joke on which she breaks down with a shout and starts crying for her best friend the diamond necklace. She never will go for a lunch. This has been the most expensive lunch she ever was having.
Warren tells Maggie that if they can prove that he was paid for leaving the city then they are having something in their hands. Maggie is with her thoughts with Ben. She all of a sudden gets up and reacts very unkind towards Warren telling him that he always tries to hinder her to see Ben and she wants now to go and see him without him. Warren says ok he will meet her then in the office.
Brick thinks it is time to see if Julia was getting rid of Jack. He climbs outside into the bathroom. Jack is sleeping in Julia's bed. Brick tells her that first of all he needs Amy's dresses. Jack wakes up and Julia starts telling him very kind things while Brick hides himself on the floor. She asks Jack to dress himself in the bathroom where his suits are. Jack goes to the bathroom and Brick gathers Amy's things. All of a sudden Jack is coming in again searching for his watch. Julia embraces him while Brick hides himself under the blanket at the end of the bed. Jack sits down with Julia on the bed and starts kissing her passionately making Brick feeling very uncomfortable. Julia manages to get Jack back into the bathroom and Brick runs over to Amy. Julia meanwhile pretends to sleep on her bed.
Warren is back in his office. The charitable organisation is phoning and telling him that he was right they really got a big donation over $80.000 from a room no. 400. Warren phones to the Capwell hotel asking the name of the person living in room number 400 and gets told that it is Miss Nell Carter. Somebody has just stolen something from her and Cruz Castillo is working on this case. Warren jumps up and storms to the Capwell hotel.
Eden tries to pacify the lady who cries and cries over her loss. Cruz is on her other side while her friend is standing quiet in the background. Warren storms in and shows Cruz the anonymous letter he got with the confirmation of the charitable institution. Cruz asks the lady the value of the necklace and she says it was $100.000. Cruz calculates minus $20.000 for the dealer and it comes to the $80.000. Nell Carter gets up and Eden tells her that they will try their best to find her necklace and how sorry they feel. She tells her that she knows it is not their fault and she should have put it into the hotel safe and leaves with her friend.
Cruz goes out with the police and Sophia comes to see Eden. Eden tells her about her problem with her love to Cruz. That she has to think all the time on him. Sophia advices her not to fight against her feelings and that she does not think that she will be ever happy without this man. She should not try to manipulate him. He is a decent person and his whole strength and integrity he is getting from this source. She should respect this. Eden tells her that she actually hoped that she would tell her how she could live without him.
Julia is leading Jack out announcing him by talking loud. Amy and Brick understand at once and climb back over the sims. Lee comes into his room and is happy in seeing the food but wonders why something is missing from the plates.
Brick tells Amy that Julia has got a plan. Julia wants to explain when somebody knocks. She says "not again" and opens while the both hide in the bathroom. Some service men bring in two big trunks. Brick and Amy come back from the bathroom and Julia tells them that these two trunks are their train ticket. Brick can't believe that she really wants to put them into these trunks but Julia tells him that they will get enough air and this is a sure method to get on the train unnoticed. All of a sudden Amy starts to sneeze. Brick hopes that she is not getting ill just now.
Maggie is happy to see Warren back in the office. She was visiting Ben and had afterwards a walk thinking about them. She feels sorry in talking to him in such an unkind way. She embraces him and tells him that it got so much clear to her how much she is in need of him and if he can't bring her home. Warren gladly agrees.
Eden and Cruz are talking in a softer mood about the theft. Cruz thinks that somebody was doing a kind of joke otherwise who will risk to climb up the wall and steal just to give it for charity. He gives Eden the letter he got from Warren. Eden agrees that somebody might play a bad game.

Nick looks into the basket and sees that the berries she got are poisonous. Kelly feels terrible and he quickly covers her with a blanket.
Steve says if his mother is happy to tell it around he does not mind it but he finds nothing great in it. Christy tells that she is also having a new job. She is baby sitting.

Augusta finds it right that she has informed Ted while Lionel wonders how she can tell such a thing when she has brought back everything. Augusta answers the door bell. It is Steve asking them if he can count for their support in the coming case against Sophia Capwell. Augusta says of course. It will be a joy to help, this lady is a treacherous killer.

The man she was talking told her that he will earn millions by making a coup in New Stailand and something also about a baby. Jack gets more soften and tells her that this is all nonsense. The man was drunken. Nothing illegal is happening here. This is not the way he is doing businesses. She asks him why he has not told this to the man and treated her so brutally. He says sorry that he has become so rough but she tried to get out some information about him and he hates such a behaviour. Julia says that he is now very upset but if nothing illegal is going on why she can't ask then some questions. Jack shows her his backside while in thoughts. Julia sees that he is wearing a revolver at his back. She starts at once to change her policy. She tells him that he knows that he means so much to her and that he can trust her.

Laken tells him that once in his life to have a beard is enough but now he should remain shaved for her. She is very happy with his soft skin and starts kissing him passionately.
Jack wants to know why she all of a sudden is so much interested in his businesses. Julia tells him that he is understanding something wrongly. He has taken her along and she feels that she is a part of his life. She also feels that he is having no intention to go back to the States and she would like to stay with him where he stays. Jack asks her that she really would give up her whole relations and all what is important for her because of him? This goes all too quick for him. He did not notice that she is having such feelings for him the way she was treating him all the time. Julia tells him that she was angry because of his relation to Augusta. She wants him to understand why she was refusing herself such a long time. She can't bear it that he would only use her and put her aside afterwards. She wants to have a permanent relationship. Jack gets soft and asks if it is true. Julia asks him if he really wants her and not only her body. Jack tells her that he really wants only her. He wants her since she has poured his drink over his suit correcting himself quickly he adds and also long before since they know each other and he is having no interest in Augusta at all.

Julia tells him that she hopes that he is taking her along wherever he is going. Jack replies that he would like to marry her. Julia tells him that she would be happy to become his wife. Jack finds this perfect. She tells him that she will be a good wife to him. She then starts to share old memories asking him if he still can remember when they first were meeting each other. She tells some of the old stories by herself so that Jack only has to add that he remembers well and laughs with her. Then she asks him if he can remember when he told her for the first time that he loves her. What he has told her at that time. Jack tells her that he can remember very well. She asks him to repeat what he has told. Somebody is knocking and Jack excuses himself. It is one of the men asking him how long they have to wait till he comes for taking off the masks. Julia asks Jack from whom they want to take off the mask. Jack tells her that nobody is knowing who these Petersons from Texas are so he will go and see. He then adds that he just remembers that one of the persons of the cartel is a priest and they even can just marry here on the train.
Julia remains desperate in the coach wondering in what situation she has fallen. Jack meanwhile phones quickly to New Stailand and is giving the order to find out all about his first love to Julia. When he has kissed her for the first time and specially what he told her when he confessed his love to her. All is alright. They should not worry she only is mad to marry him. This will strengthen his position immensely special in case there would be a trial she cannot say something against him as his wife.

She was wearing a red dress and he helped her when she got caught at a chair. The man wants to know what he has told her before he kissed her the first time. Jack tells him that about this he does not want to talk about as it is too personal. The man tells him that he fears he has to tell. Jack says that she is getting ten seconds to make him happy or he would throw her into the swimming pool. The man wonders that he has threaten her. Jack laughs and says that he sees that he never was fallen in love. The minister calls from the step and tells the man that this is enough. He comes down the steps and tells him with a triumphal smile that his cousin has not only overtaken his role perfectly but also is bringing along an old friend of him. Jack asks whom, he is having many friends. The minister says that it is Julia Wainwright. And not only this he is playing his role so perfect that she is ready to marry him. Jack can't believe this. The minister enjoys his reaction and asks the tormentor to let him now alone with his plight. On being alone Jack says to himself happy that she has made fools out of them. He thanks god that she knows what is played and starts to pull out the stone of the wall.
Jack says that if they are not going to take off the masks by themselves he will do it. First Mrs. Peterson. Julia meanwhile is standing desperate and unnoticed behind Jack. Just when he wants to demask Amy she switches off the light. Much excitement one man is grasping the other and when finally somebody manages to turn on the light both are no more here. Jack is asking the men to search through the whole train. He notices Julia and asks her to go back to her room. Ivan should go to his position. Jack guides her back and Julia asks him afraid if he will not do something to them. Jack pretends to wonder what Julia is thinking of him. They will be only kept in custody till the festival is over. Julia says sorry. And when she is in the room Lee is giving to Ivan the instruction to kill both the moment he finds them whoever they are. Ivan smiles dirty and says of course and Jack mentions that he knew that he will enjoy it.
Brick is with Amy in the room which is so much guarded by Ivan. They have heard that they want to kill them and don't know what to do now specially as long as Ivan is standing before the door. They see a safe and wonder if this is the thing about Julia was talking. Brick tries to get it open.
Ted refuses to go to Harvard. CC is very upset and tells him that if he does not accept his offer then he will have to finance his study by himself. A heavy fight is following in which Christy jumps between telling CC that she finds that Ted is old enough to decide by himself. Ted thanks her to have at least one person on his side. CC asks her not to interfere and sends her away. Laken asks Ted to bring her home but they both start to fight outside the door as Ted is disappointed that she is on the side of his father and not on his side. Laken goes home alone.

He says no he only was slowly getting clear about his feelings to her and now he wants to kiss her. Nick is approaching her romantically by stroking her hair, kissing her hands and looking into her eyes making Kelly most happy.
Jack excuses himself about his delay. Julia tells him that this is ok she knows that he has to organise a lot. She asks him if they have found the Petersons. He says no they did not find them but now they should continue at the point where they have stopped. He was putting his arm around like in this way and then she wanted to know from him what he told her before he kissed her the first time. He was telling her that she is getting ten seconds to make him happy or he would throw her into the swimming pool. Julia looks surprised and if satisfied with his reply. He happy smiles and says, you see I have forgotten nothing. He tells her that they will make the biggest marriage possible on this train and in New Stailand they will take the presidential suite, for her only the best. Julia asks him if he is sure that the priest is authorised to make marriages. Jack says she is right he will immediately check up the situation. He certainly does not want that their marriage is getting annulled when they get out of the train.
Being alone Julia reflects what Jack told her. She sees herself with Jack at the swimming pool and he tells her that he has found out how much he really loves her. And when he told her that he is giving her ten seconds to make a happy man out of him she told him that either he cools down or she throws him into the swimming pool. So it was she who wanted to throw him into the swimming pool and not he. Julia all of a sudden realises the message. Jack is alive. He is feeding them with wrong stories to sign to her that he is still alive. She must find and help him.
Real Jack looks out of his self-made window and hopes that Julia has got his message because if there is a person who will be able to set him free then it is she. Now all is up to her.

Christy puts his things on the table and wonders how she will manage that he is falling into love to her.
Brick is knocking Ivan but he is really a heavy boy and knocks Brick down a couple of times till he falls unconscious outside the door while Amy shouts in fear. Ivan turns around and then approaches Amy inside the guarded room.
Laken comes and wants to see Ted. Christy tells her that he has moved to the little apartment but she will tell him that she has come. Laken tells her how happy she is to have her as a friend and she only wanted to come to tell Ted that she feels sorry as he of course can study where he likes.
CC wants to know who has been at the door and asks Christy to lock well. Sophia comes from inside the mansion and tells CC that she wants to talk to him. Sophia tells him that she definitely has decided to apply for manslaughter. CC tells her that everybody except her seems to know how many years she will get for manslaughter. She says she knows but this might be better than lifelong. And now she will phone to Mason and inform him. CC asks her not to do and sleep over the whole matter as it was an accident and she should not go to the court and confess manslaughter. Sophia tells him that she has decided and now she goes to phone. CC remains in the room holding his head in pain.

Cruz goes out to him and Steve tries to get his support in case Sophia is not accepting his proposal. Cruz makes it clear to him that he will not talk for him but for the defence. Steve mentions that he surely is doing so only because he has lost his fiancee and he will ruin his career if he is going to do so.
CC is feeling much pain in his head. He does not want that anybody is seeing him in this condition.

Christy is talking with Ted who is packing his things. Ted tells her that CC has taken away his whole financial basis and he also does not want him to come to the opening of the University which is bearing the name of his brother. Christy asks him if he is not fearing to go away or if he not rather is more nice to his father so he may change his mind. Ted says that he worries a little bit but he thinks it will do. For his father there is only one word which can change his mind and this is Harvard.
Christy all of a sudden has to think on the day when she went away from her home. She was in her room locked up when all of a sudden she hears Steve at the door calling for her and telling her that they are alone and can have a nice time together. She blindly jumped out of the window and went away. Ted asks her what happened to her as all of a sudden she looked so serious. Christy says that it is nothing and is giving Ted a kiss on his mouth. Ted steps back and she tells him not to get nervous it was only a kiss in friendship showing him that she finds him a nice fellow. Ted says ok but leaves the room.
Nick is overpowered with fear of the day when they have to go back. Kelly notices it and tells him that he needs not to worry everything is becoming alright. She will always love him. He tries to believe her and feels again as the most happy person in the world.

Ted is coming down the stairs with his suitcase. Christy is behind him. Eden rushes out of the office and asks CC who is just on going if he has heard what Sophia wants to do. All of a sudden she sees Ted and asks him where he is going. He tells her that this she has to ask CC as he has thrown him out. Eden tells him that he should stay as now they need all keeping them together. They all start to discuss Sophia's case when the door bell rings.
Christy opens and on seeing Steve she slips out telling him that at the moment nobody is having time for him. Steve tells her that he anyway would like to talk with her. He has rented an apartment next to his only for her. She tells him that she does not want this. He tells her that because of the present situation she can't stay here while he is fighting against Sophia. She tells him that they don't mind her staying with them probably as they know that she is on their side. She goes in and Steve starts talking through the open door to Sophia. Ted goes to the door and throws him out asking him to leave his mother in peace.

Eden and Cruz have left and Ted arrives. He also wants to know from Mason what they can do to help Sophia.

Mason also arrives and on hearing Cruz's idea he tells him that if he is testifying against the public prosecutor he is going to ruin his career. He also does not think that he will be a great help for the defence. Cruz says that he can testify that Sophia has been not sane at that time. Mason reminds him that he is not a doctor who can do this and this will have no value. CC comes and wants to know what is going on. On hearing that Cruz wants to help the defence he asks him to wait as he would like to talk to him later. First he wants to talk to Sophia. He sends Mason away and goes with Sophia to the office room.
Cruz goes behind the pillar as if going into the hall but then turns around and asks Eden what she intends with the game. She asks him if he really is going to do what he told. He says yes. She thinks that he might have talked like this only because he knew that she is behind the pillar to impress her.

CC tells her that there was only a conflict in a business matter. Sophia asks him to take care of his health and to take more rest. This excitement is not good for his health.

Ted asks Christy first to dress her again and then tell him what she wants. Christy finds dressing herself a waste of time. She knows now his problem. He does not love Laken. All what keeps him to her is his feeling of faithfulness. She could give him much more than Laken who only will sleep with him when they are married. Ted tells her that this is not the case. He really loves Laken. Christy is disappointed and starts shouting against him. That he only has misused her in pretending friendship at the time when Laken was not attending to him and he can't stand her in reality. He is a liar.

knocking and finding her in a dark room. She notices that he likes rather
light and switches the light on. He tells her that the only way to help
Sophia in the court is for him to state the truth that she has hated him
and was living in fear of him thinking that she is going to hurt her.

Miss Capwell. Cruz gets his breakfast and is just on starting to eat when
Steve comes in and sits simply down at his table informing him that he is
having good news for them as Sophia Capwell is not accepting his offer.

him that the public prosecutor is pleading for murder. Why is he not
getting up and jumping in joy? He is the one who has served for them the
whole case in a most perfect way. The public prosecutor and also the chief
of the police are both very pleased with his work.

Jade comes to the little restaurant at the beach where she is working. She is just on starting to get things ready for opening when Mary comes and asks her if she has seen her sister Christy. Jade tells that she has not seen her the whole morning and yesterday evening only shortly.
Cruz finds it laughable to charge for murder. He might have come through with his rough methods up to now but this time he has gone far beyond the goal. Steve's boss is having only one goal and this is to come into the papers. But he should know that he only was doing his job and was never thinking on his career. And he finds it not at all right to ruin the reputation of a person who was having an accident Steve tells him that they are not talking about a person they are talking about a killer who is a danger for the public.
Eden jumps up and takes the plate from Cruz and turns the whole content over the trousers of Steve telling him that she has now enough of his silly talk. Cruz calls out somehow surprised somehow shocked only, Eden. He gets up and runs behind her.
Nick tries to calm Kelly. He tells her that when they go back they will first of all contact Cruz. He will understand what happened as he is having a special sense for feeling the truth. The helicopter is circling again and again over them making Kelly very nervous. Kelly wants to dance a last dance but then while dancing she stops and tells him that she knows that their best days are over. She quickly snatches her bundle and runs out followed by a worried Nick.
Laken rings the bell and Ted opens surprised to see her already in the morning. She tells him that she was making her morning walk but then she was too excited because of today so that she came already now. Ted is friendly talking to her while hiding the scratches with his one hand. They sit down on the sofa and by then Laken notices the scratches.
Jade asks Mary not to worry. Christy can take care for herself very well. She gives her a coin and asks her to make some music. Mary goes to the music box and all of a sudden she is seeing Christy still leaning unconscious against the music box. Mary at once takes action and asks Jade to bring her a blanket and phone to the ambulance as Christy is standing under shock and is in need of immediate treatment.
The waitress at the Lamesa call for Steve and Jade informs him on the phone what happened. He plays to be shocked and tells her that he will be there immediately.
Eden asks Cruz no more to talk to this vampire as he is making by this things only worse. A little dispute follows in which Eden finds that he can lie and tell that he never heard Sophia confess her shooting. The waitress interrupts by informing Eden that again a theft happened in the hotel. Cruz insists that she goes together with him into his car and both hurry off.
Laken helps Ted to clean his wounds. She wonders about Christy's behaviour but Ted does not want to talk about her. Laken asks him what he would like to do over the day and is making some suggestion.

Nick and Kelly are on the way through the wilderness and wonder if the helicopter which is circling all the time over them has seen them. Nick notices that her hand are cramped out of fear and she is very nervous. Kelly asks Nick to go back with her as they will be safe only there. Nick suggest to rest and tells Kelly not to worry. Everything will come alright but Kelly is shivering in fear.
The helicopter is in contact with Jack Lee's men driving in the car. He tells them that he can't see them but he is certain that they are somewhere under him. They should go now and search for them. Jack's men are not in the mood to search in the wilderness during this heat. One of them gets the idea that they will arrive certainly at the farmer's house and by then they can catch them easily. They ask the helicopter to land close to the house in a hiding place and wait there for them.
Cruz is interviewing the film star about her stolen jewelry. The lady is impressed about the nice inspector. She makes compliments and invites him for the evening rather than talking about her jewelry. Cruz gets the idea to phone to Warren. Warren is not here but Sam confirms to him in having got again a letter mentioning a donation and a room number of the Capwell hotel as the donator. Cruz tells Eden what he just got to know by which it was clear that it is the same person behind this theft like behind all the other thefts.
Mary explains to the policeman who has come to see Christy her condition. He is impressed by her knowledge and asks her if she is a doctor. She says no but a nurse. The ambulance comes and is taking care for Christy. Another policeman standing aside is giving silly comments on young girls who are running around with such dresses at the beach in the night and provoking such things. Mary is very upset and tells him that this has been a case of rape which has nothing to do with sex but with violence against women. Maggie is just overhearing the last conversation and tells the police officer that she is right and she will suggest him for an advance course for next time and now he should bring out all the people.
Nick tries to phone from the stable but the phone is not working. He wants to run to the house for phoning but Kelly fears to be alone. Nick asks her nothing to fear he will be back in a trice. They are safe now.
Ted tells Laken the whole story with Christy. He tells her that after having seen her family he no more wonders. He tells her all about Christy's family, the drunken mother, Mary the nun and the idiot of stepbrother she is having.
Steve is standing next to Maggie and gives order to make as much photos as possible. Maggie who is leading the action tells him that it is already enough and she is leading the investigation and not he. He tells her that he has to work afterwards on it and then it will be necessary to know everything as she might be not there by then. Maggie gives her ok and Steve adds something by calling her baby. She corrects him telling him that her name is officer Gillis obviously displeased with his behaviour.
The doctor comes and all are sent out. Mary tells him that she is related and stays. The doctor gives her all information about Christy's condition which might be not so good but he only can tell something when she is gaining back her consciousness. He sends her then out for taking the samples to proof that it has been a case of rape.
Warren knocks at the door and asks Maggie some questions. She tells him that she has to be there during the investigation and begs him to phone to Cruz and asks him to come at once.
Cruz wants Eden to tell the guests that there is a thief in this house and they should take care. Eden tells him that she will not do this as by then they will lose all their customers. Cruz warns her that not every guest will be so generous like the last ones and take it so easy. He wonders why all their talks are ending in fight. Cruz gets the phone from Warren. He tells Eden about the rape of Christy. Eden wants to join him and he is taking her along.
