Warren visits Summer in the museum. He wants to invite her for dinner but Summer softly is not accepting. Warren wants to know what she is missing on him. Summer points to a romantically picture and tells him that she is missing the romance. Warren comes in the evening asking her to close the museum. He then brings forward a blanket, a little table and a picnic basked all in the same stile as on the picture. Summer is having a hearty laugh and accepts this kind of invitation while Warren asks her if this is romantically enough. They start eating and talking. Warren gets slowly closer to her but the moment he tries to kiss her passionately she pushes him away and jumps up and runs crying out of the room. Warren is very embarrassed and runs behind her. He finds her finally at the beach sitting in the dark. Summer is sitting and crying. For her eyes she is seeing a situation in which a man starts beating and rapping her. Warren slowly approaches her and wants to know if he has done something wrong. Summer says no it is only something which is having to do with her.
Lionel visits Veronica in the office. She tells him about her dilemma in visiting Peter. He suggest to her to tell it at once to Mason. Veronica phones to Mason and Mason is relieved that it was she. Lionel asks her where Peter is as he wants to visit him. She will not get in trouble by this as he could very well followed her or even Mason to Peter secretly.
Dominic phones to the Lockridges making sure that nobody is at home. He enters the house and is just on opening Lionel's suitcase when Minx puts on the light holding Dominic on gun point with her pistol. Dominic tells her that he has taken nothing and is not armed. He will go now thinking that she will not shoot into his back. Saying so Dominic walks out slowly through he door while Minx is not able to shoot. Soon afterwards Lionel and Augusta come home. They search around but can't find anything which might have been stolen. Yet all are sure that it is the same person who knocked down Lionel. Minx is sorry in not having been able to shoot.
Lionel dressed as a doctor visits all of a sudden Peter. Peter wonders how he managed to get in after the whole hospital is secured. Lionel tells him with a little money one can do everything. Lionel wants to know from him whom he has seen before Joe has entered the room where Channing got killed. Peter is not very cooperative and tells nothing. Mason comes and Lionel quickly hides himself in the bathroom overhearing their conversation. Mason also wants to know from Peter whom he has seen. Peter pretends to be too weak to enter any conversation and Mason soon gets asked by the doctor to leave as the patient is still in a very critical condition. Lionel comes out of his hiding place and promises to Peter to bring him away to an unknown place when he tells him whom he has seen. Peter does not think that he will be able to do this but agrees finally to Lionel's offer.
Lionel has organised an ambulance and comes with Augusta to fetch Peter. While Augusta occupies the doctor by pretending to be an emergency case Lionel is taking Peter quickly out to the ambulance. The doctor at once recognises that nothing is wrong with Augusta but he is accepting her female approach. When he starts to get too intimate she quickly escapes. The doctor sensing that something must have been wrong is looking around and finds out that Peter is brought away. He quickly phones to Mason and reports his fault. Mason on hearing the description of the lady at once recognises Augusta. Lionel while driving is having a dispute with Augusta because of her approach to the doctor which he found not necessary. They did not come far when they get stopped by the police. Mason comes forward and Peter is brought back to the hospital.
Mason is suggesting a deal to Peter. He will arrange a press conference for him in which he should clear him from his charge that he is the murderer of Channing and he will give him a quarter of his heritage. Peter tells him that he is having nothing from a heritage when he is in need for money for living after getting out of the hospital. Mason tells him that he will of course give him also the access to take a certain amount from his heritage account. Peter now gladly agrees to talk to the reporter in his way. When Mason goes Peter jumps in bed with joy by thinking how much a quarter of the heritage is and the height of his monthly income.
Warren is inviting Summer for the evening. He tells her that it is a surprise. Summer comes and he goes with her into a hotel and then into an elevator bringing back some nice memories from their last adventure when caught up in an elevator. To Summer's surprise there is a table and two chairs inside the elevator. Warren asks her to sit down. They drive to another level and their they get served a wonderful dinner. At the next level the vine is coming and at another level some musicians are playing with their violin while they are eating and drinking. Summer finds his idea great and enjoys very much the situation. At the end Warren is telling her that he also has rented a room in this hotel in case she would like to go with him there. Summer in a wonderful sunny mood says yes and Warren drives with the elevator to the room. Summer lays down on the bed and Warren again getting very passionate is taking quickly off his shirt and jumps on her side. Summer gets a great shock and pushes him away. She again starts crying and runs out. Warren is very desperate. He searches for her everywhere but can't find her.
Summer runs to Gina and she tells her under tears her problem. She deeply loves Warren but when a man starts to get close to her old memories are coming up and she can't bear this kind of closeness. She tells Gina that she never wanted to disturb her with this story but now she does not know what to do. When she was on marrying Stockman Hank visited her and wanted to know where Gina is. She did not want to disturb her luck so she did not tell him where she has gone. He then was beating her up and rapped her as a kind of punishment. She went to a doctor and got told that she needs some therapy to overcome this shock. She did some therapy and thought it has gone away but now she knows it is still there. Gina is very much shocked that Summer has done this for her. She suggests to her to go to a Sanatorium for an intensive therapy. Summer agrees and leaves for a treatment in LA.
Warren approaches totally unhappy after some days Gina. Gina finally tells him the whole story as she sees that Warren is missing Summer so much. Warren gets very upset because of Hank but he also tells Gina it is worth for him to wait for Summer as he dearly loves her.
Lionel is out at the Amanda Lockridge with two divers. All of a sudden he sees a motor boat coming with high speed to his yacht. It turns out that it is Liz. Lionel is not so happy about but Liz tells him that she can't wait for seeing the safe. The divers are starting their work and bring carefully up the safe. Under deck Lionel is opening carefully the safe. They find an old Chinese box and an old cross with some stones. Both wonder where the log book could be. Lionel searches and thinks over where it could be. He finds a secret place in the back of the safe and there the log book is. They take it out and start reading. To their own surprise many things written in this book is really hinting on the bad attitude from the side of the Capwells. Lionel says that in this case they nearly need nothing to add but Liz wants to make it more clear. She adds some more lines to the log book which show that the Capwells are obviously guilty on the sinking of the Amanda Lockridge. She tells Lionel that her writing is so perfect that even an expert can't find any difference in the writings as she knows exactly which chemicals one has to use for faking this. They carefully close the safe and ask the divers to bring also some of her faked pictures in order to pretend a great finding again down to the ship.
Late in the evening Lionel is coming home with Liz in the dark showing her with the flashlight in a book the age of the cross they have seen in the safe. Dominic who was busy again in hiding the coins gets surprised by their visit is standing behind a pillar. He is listening to their talk and finds out that all the pictures of Minx in the house are replaced by faked ones from Liz.
Mason has arranged the press conference and informs also CC concerningly. Mason comes earlier and brings a signed agreement to Peter by which he is getting one quarter of his heritage and the access to Mason's donation account allowing him to withdraw a certain amount each month. Mason asks Peter what he is going to tell but Peter tells him that this would take away the spontaneity and look artificial. CC and Kelly are joining the reporters. In the background Dominic is also standing silently. Peter looks around in the group of reporters who are full of expectations. Mason is holding his breath not knowing if Peter is keeping his word. Peter enjoys obviously the moments of his power and Mason's insecurity. He tells to all that how he watched Channing getting a note and how he went into the garden. He then saw a person in the back of the room. He could not recognise this person as the sun was blinding. All what he saw was that the person was having dark hair. Dominic nods with his head in the back as having got just a confirmation. All others are more then disappointed. When the journalists are out Kelly asks Peter if this is all what he saw somehow upset and not knowing what she should think about this show. Peter confirms that he has not seen the person who has killed Channing. Mason remains as the last. Peter asks Mason if he was good. Mason tells him that he has done his job well. CC and Kelly don't believe now but they will after some time. Mason then tells Peter that he has not told him all about the heritage. Because of his lie that he has killed Channing CC disinherited him and therefore his quarter also will be zero and as CC has canceled his account he will nothing gain there too. Peter gets very irritated and tells Mason he can phone to the reporters and tell the contrary but Mason smiles and tells him that this would nothing bring to him as he makes himself unbelievable. Peter takes his hand back from the receiver knowing that Mason is right.
Eden goes to see the salvage of the Amanda Lockridge. She wants to see how the safe is brought up and brings her camera along but she gets told there that only reporters are allowed. Lionel lets her on the boat as he has invited her but nobody is allowed to dive with the divers. To his joy Warren is allowed by Lionel to dive with them. Eden sees how the safe is brought up but is then not allowed to see how it is brought into the boat.
Laken all the time tries to find out from Ted why he is in fight with Warren. She finds out that everybody in her family seems to know about but she. She insists to know about their secret. Her parents give in and finally tell her about the coins which Warren has stolen from the Capwells in order to protect Lionel's affair with Sophia.
Brick, Amy and Jade visit the museum. Liz working there starts flirting with Brick. Amy who is very sensitive since Jeff in such things runs away taking Jade along. Jade wonders what happened to her. When Brick turns around he no more finds them. Amy tells Jade that the men are all the same. Brick was only feeling pity for her condition while he wants to go out with other women. Next time when Brick comes to see her she shows to him her cold shoulder and asks him better to go and have fun with other girls. Brick confused asks Augusta if a woman is getting into strange moods when she is pregnant. Augusta tells him that this she can well say. She has been always in very strange moods at the time of her pregnancy. Brick tries it therefore again and again but Amy is too afraid in getting hurt once more like with Jeff at the airport. Brick is getting by her strange behaviour very much frustrated and wants to leave Santa Barbara. Not before seeing Amy and telling her good bye. When he tells her that he is leaving Santa Barbara Amy is getting very sad in losing a good friend and expresses her feelings to him. Brick asks her if she would give him a chance to see her and be a friend to her. Amy agrees and Brick stays on.
Liz is not giving up so easy with Brick. She addresses him again and again. First she asks him if he can't act as a model for her as he is having such wonderful muscles. When Brick refuses she offers him much money for it. Brick at one occasion tells her finally that she is obviously an attractive woman but he falls for Amy. Liz tells him that she is having an advantage against Amy and this is that she is not pregnant. On seeing that she does not get through she asks him what Amy is having what she is not having. Brick tells her some attributes of Amy like truthfulness which she is obviously not having.
Lionel is going to throw a party in the museum in the evening. One highlight will be the opening of the well secured safe. Lionel is incredible happy and tells his family that it will be the day of his days when he can proof the guilt of the Capwells and blame them in front of the camera. Laken finds this constant fight with the Capwells laughable and tells her father that she will not come. Warren is also not very enthusiastic about but is at least ready to come.
Liz Peal is invited as an expert to check as a neutral person the value and the age of the pictures. Eden also gets ready to go while CC tells that he will not go to see this nonsense. Yet he is having the intention to see it in the television.
Dominic has mixed himself with a big camera with the reporters. He films the safe and asks a person to open it but then gets told that this is not yet allowed. Lionel is getting interviewed. They asks where his daughter is. Lionel tells to the camera that she is unfortunately ill and could not come. All admire the great fund of the old pictures he found and which he promises to spend partly to the museum. After looking at the pictures they make a break for some drinks and conversation. Warren gets addressed by Liz and thinking her as a foe he is very much opposing her nice approach.
Dominic phones meanwhile to Mason. He says that he has worked once as a gardener at the Lockridges and he has seen that Lionel Lockridge was having the stolen coins from the Capwells. He should go and find them. Mason is making a raid and finds the coins in Lionel' s suitcase. Laken helplessly is seeing how Mason and his police officers are searching around in their house. When they left she drives quickly to the museum to warn her parents. Lionel is happy to see her and introduces her to the reporter telling that in spite of her illness his daughter has come. Laken is having much difficulties to slow down the enthusiasm of her father by reporting about the raid and the coins found in his briefcase. Warren and Augusta gets very nervous and all the four meet in the hall next while the party is going on to discuss what to do. Unnoticed by them Dominic is filming and recording their talk. Warren and Augusta suggest to cancel the opening of the safe but Lionel gives himself optimistic telling them that Mason will not dare to take him into custody while opening the safe. Warren notices that Mason has come already with some officers. He gets very nervous and tells Lionel that he will go as he is not going to look how he is taken in custody.
Lionel is called from the people to the party and he starts opening the safe. He finds the Chinese box which he explains that it needs a special trick to open it. He then pretends to examine the whole empty safe and finds the secret drawer with the log book. CC has changed his mind and meanwhile also has come. Lionel starts to read out a few lines and says that before reading the whole book the best would be to go to the last page where the truth must be written about the sinking of the ship. He is just starting to read out the faked lines when Mason asks the police officers to take Lionel into custody. Lionel refuses in front of the running cameras to go before he has finished his reading. To the great shock of his family and Miss Peal he is put into hand cuffs. All of a sudden Lionel notices Dominic between the reporters and pointing at him he asks Warren quickly to find out who this man is and where he is living. Dominic before getting into troubles leaves quickly the museum and Warren runs behind him.
Dominic's first place to go was Joe and Kelly telling them with full joy the news of Lionel's arrest. Shortly after Dominic has left again Warren knocks at the door and demands from Joe and Kelly the address of Dominic which they obviously know as he has seen him entering their house. Joe and Kelly are not ready to give him the address and Warren upset reminds Joe that he as a victim must know very well that it is not nice to get wrongly convicted. Their friend is trying to put some guilt on Lionel for some unknown reason. When alone Joe and Kelly discuss the matter. Joe finds that Dominic really was showing a lot of joy in Lionel's arrest as if he is a personal foe from him. If this turns out true then he does not want to have to do with him anything any more.
Dominic at home turns into Sophia. She is incredible happy and hopes that Lionel will end on the electrical chair so that she never will have to fear him again and can go now back to her family in peace. She sees again how Lionel has thrown her over board and driven over her again and again to make sure that she is dead and nobody else than he is having her.
As it is Christmas no judge is around and Lionel cannot go out on bail. He has to wait till the holidays are over. Lionel still has not lost his humour making quickly friendship with the inmates.
Dominic is putting the video tape before the door of the presidential suite where Mason is staying and rings the bell. Mason looks out and finds the video. He looks at it and smiles telling himself that this is the wish of every prosecutor getting such proofs into the hands. Dominic finds out that Mason is still having too less proofs for keeping Lionel. He phones again to Mason asking to have a closer look in the Lockridge mansion as it is not only a robbery but a murder case. Mason finds on his second raid the ring which Channing was wearing on the day of his death with the initials of Sophia in it. He can remember very well that he has asked Channing about the ring but was not getting any positive reply. Now he sees the initials and senses an affair between Lionel and Sophia which Channing wanted to detect to the public. This could be very well a reason for Lionel to kill Channing. Lionel is celebrating Christmas in jail. Minx is coming and visiting him and bringing him a nice meal.
Veronica coming from the shower in the presidential suite hears a talk of Mason and the police station. She sees the ring and goes to the jail to warn Lionel about the new proofs. She gets caught up by Mason without being able to tell him details. Lionel nicely protects her by shouting against her as if he is terrible upset about her trying to snoop behind him. Mason later says sorry to Veronica in wrongly suspecting her.
Mason finds in the dinner jacket which Lionel was wearing a notice with the blood of Channing which asks him to come to the office. He gets the test of the blood and it turns out the same rare blood group Channing was having. With such new and strong proofs he comes to the court a little bit too late as all were already waiting. CC and Eden sitting on one side. Lionel and his lawyer on the other side as well Augusta, Warren and Laken. Mason goes to the judge excusing himself in being late but new proofs have come up. He shows him the document explaining the proofs which put Lionel under the suspicious in having killed Channing and manages to put Lionel on a bail of $500.000. The Judge gives his approval to the new material and announces the bail. The Lockridges are getting very upset and Lionel demands to know why. The judge says the reason and CC on hearing the reason is getting totally upset and is nearly knocking down Lionel so that both have to be separated. In the background at the door Dominic hears the height of the bail and thinks now the work is done and he can come back as Sophia without having to fear Lionel.
Augusta runs to Liz and asks her to sell one of the pictures. Liz is working quickly. Within one day she arranges the sale of the picture. Augusta senses a connection between Liz and Lionel and can't help to make a remark about this. She tells her that she has very well noticed that she was somehow shocked when Lionel was arrested and it seems to her that she is showing more interest into Lionel than she pretends to have. Liz is not entering her remark. She is just handing out the money to Augusta when CC comes and reproaches her for falling him into his back by selling the pictures which were not only meant for the museum but also is helping his foe out of prison. Liz says that she only has done her duty.
CC is still troubled by the idea on the log book. He asks Cruz to get the log-book from the museum. Cruz refuses to do such illegal action which makes CC upset but he has to give in. Eden in hearing their conversation is irritated that he is not ready to do so and starts a dispute with Cruz. She tries to hurt him in making remarks that she knows that beside working for her father he is doing also some other works. She demands from him only to work for her father from now on and to bring all the papers of what he is doing to her office that she control.
Lionel celebrates his freedom on bail and New Year by taking a bath with Augusta in champagne. He is still in good mood.
Cruz in disguise of a cleaner tries to enter the well guarded room with the log-book but all his tricks and attempts are bringing no success. Eden in disguise of a watchman approaches the two guards and asks them to go to the airport as a Miss from a beauty contest is arriving and they got the order to go and fetch her while she should take care for the room. The two officers are happy for this interesting change in their work run to the airport. Eden quickly opens the door of the room is sitting down and opens the log book. While Eden is reading Cruz appears also in the room and frightens Eden by closing her eyes with his hands. He tells her that she should stop reading as he is having the better idea. He starts to make photos page by page from the book and places the log book afterwards again properly on the place. The watchmen come back blaming themselves in believing such nonsense. They check up at once the room and are happy that all is still on its place. Cruz and Eden are hiding themselves behind the curtain. Now they are locked up as they can't go out through the door. Eden tells Cruz that there is also no chance to escape via the window. Cruz puts two sofas together and starts sleeping while Eden goes up and down. Eden steals the film of Cruz's pocket and jumps out of the window with a loud shout drawing the attention of the watchmen to the room. Cruz can only escape with difficulties.
Eden gets visited in her new office by an upset Cruz who starts searching for the film. It comes to a physical fight by which Cruz finally is sitting on Eden on the ground and searches through her whole things. Eden claims that she has destroyed the film. Cruz asks her if she finds it nice to draw the attention of the guards on him with her shout he nearly got caught. Eden finds that her show was exciting and smiles.
Cruz does not believe Eden in having destroyed the films and finds out the photo shop where she gets the film developed. He tells the woman in the shop that it was a mistake with the film and he has to bring it back to Miss Capwell at once. When Eden comes to fetch the photos she has to find out that Cruz was already here.
Kelly is having strange nightmares by dreaming about the day when her mother left her. She is getting strange headache by this and Joe worries much about her. Dominic is phoning to Joe as he wanted to say good bye for ever to them but Joe informs him that he and Kelly are on the way to the hospital for a check up of Kelly. Dominic is changing his plans and goes to the hospital in worry about Kelly. To Joe's relieve the doctor's find nothing special only that she was through the kidnapping and the earth quake too much under stress and is in urgent need of much rest. Dominic on finding Kelly alright is saying good bye to Joe and Kelly. Joe tells Dominic that in case he has placed the coins and other things into Lionel's things they no more want to have something to do with him as he knows how it is to be wrongly accused. Just then Lionel in search for Dominic to proof his innocence is seeing Dominic. Dominic escapes but Lionel follows him to his flat. Lionel breaks into Dominic's apartment. Dominic knocks him down with his suitcase and escapes. Lionel is phoning to the airport and bus stations and finally finds out that Dominic has a ticket for the Oriental Express to Chicago. In the last minute he reaches the Oriental Express and gets on to it.
Mason can't hold back his new knowledge informing his family about the affair between Lionel and Sophia. CC does not believe him but Mason points out that their marriage was not so perfect as he pretends. Many times he was hearing Sophia crying in her bed when he was not here. He has neglected her and driven her into the arms of Lionel and in order to hide their affair he killed Channing. So by this he is actually also guilty on Channing's dead. He also asks CC if it is not on the time to excuse himself in having him wrongly suspected. CC does not think to do this. When Mason has gone he asks Eden what she thinks about. Eden even knowing the truth does not want to hurt the feelings of her father and tells him that she also does not believe this.
Mason is not giving in and brings as a proof a document which Sophia has set up with a lawyer secretly and which shows that she was having the intention of a divorce. Mason this time with a strong position is getting no reply from CC anymore. On being alone CC sits at his desk with the picture of Sophia. Tears of disappointment are coming up and all of a sudden he smashes down the picture and the glass breaks. Rosa finds it and places it again on the desk.
Cruz gets a visit from Liz. she asks him to dive down with her to the Amanda Lockridge. Cruz is not very enthusiastic. Eden visits Cruz and wants to get back the slides. Cruz tells her that he is not having them. He pushes her like a little child out of the door telling her that he is now busy. Eden gets very upset and jealous and goes to see CC. She asks him to fire Cruz from his job as he is not following a normal time table and also never is giving to her his books so she can check him up. She mentions also that Liz Peal is with him and that she hates him. CC is amused. He tells her that Cruz might work according to his own timings and in an unconventional way but he is one of the best people he is having in finding new oil resources and therefore he is not ready to do so. He tells her that it somehow looks as if she is jealous.
Lionel is searching for Dominic but the conductor is keeping an eye on him in not bothering the people in the train. He warns him to throw him out if he goes on in looking into each compartment. He sells him the ticket and gives him a place asking him not to move from it. Lionel's only chance was the restaurant. But also there the conductor comes and watches constantly over him. Finally Dominic comes into the restaurant and is taking place at a table while Lionel is at the bar. Waiting for a good moment to be alone he starts talking to Dominic which ends in a heavy fight. Lionel knocks Dominic down but Dominic escapes to the door and Lionel gets the impression that he jumped or was falling out of the train. Lionel holding a part of the berth in his hand calls the conductor telling him that somebody was falling out of the train. The conductor tells him that they have to keep up their time and nobody was falling out.
The police tells Augusta that Lionel has to come to the police station the next day otherwise he will loose his bail. Augusta irritated tells the police officer that he has not to worry he will come. When the officer has gone she and her family try to find Lionel.
Cruz who is reading amused the log-book which he projects page by page on a screen. Eden knocks and Cruz only quickly manages to switch off the projector. Eden enters his room and Cruz is talking to her to keep her attention on him. He tells her that he knows what she needs and starts kissing her. He then asks her to close her eyes. Eden closes her eyes and is waiting full expectations what he is going to do. Cruz quickly hides the film, the projector and the screen. He asks her then to open her eyes and tells her coolly that it is alright she can go now. Eden is very disappointed and embarrassed and goes.
Dominic is bleeding much from a wound at the ear. She takes away the beard and changes himself into Sophia. She is very upset and talking with herself than now they will see who will win. She takes a big knife and finds Lionel alone sitting in the restaurant showing her his backside. She raises her hand with the knife but is not able to stab him. Lionel notices her in the mirror. He jumps up turns around and disarms her. Sophia is hiding quickly her face but Lionel forces her to show it and is shocked to see Sophia.
Lionel pushes Sophia into her sleeping compartment. At the beginning he approaches her kind and softly happy to know that he has not killed her but as she is full of hate against him and trying to escape while starting to shout for help he binds her on the pillar of the bed and fastens her with a toggle. He asks her where she was hiding herself over fifteen years and keeping him and her family thinking that she was dead. He wonders how she will explain all this to her family.
After having not found Sophia at the appointed station where they wanted to meet each other Marcello is entering the Oriental Express. He searches through every compartment and when Lionel opens and tells him that he does not know the person he is searching for Marcello forces his way into the compartment and sees Sophia in her unfavourable position. Lionel starts to fight with Marcello getting Marcello out of the compartment. In this fight Marcello gives Lionel a knock and he falls out of the train. Sophia makes herself free and sees how Lionel is falling out of the train. She discusses with Marcello if they should make alarm and bring the train to stop and search for Lionel or not. Marcello asks her to keep quite as he might be dead and by this she has got what she anyway wanted all the time. A couple comes and asks them if they did not hear somebody falling out. Marcello and Sophia tell them that they must have heard wrongly as they did not see anybody falling out.
Lionel is falling with his head against something hard and looses his consciousness. A tramp finds him and thinking him dead he changes their suits including their wallets. Later Lionel is found by some circus artists who take him into their bus and get him back to life. Trying to get something valuable out of him they ask him to join a round of poker with them. Lionel is giving his watch and wins some money. Their driver also speeds up on the street to catch for Lionel the Oriental Express at another station. Sophia sitting with Marcello in a normal compartment is not sure if she should now be happy or not. When she gets up to go to the toilet Lionel again in the train pushes her into her sleeping compartment telling her that her friend will be not able to help her this time. Marcello is lying unconscious at his seat. Lionel has hit him with something hard on his head. Lionel wants to force Sophia to go to the police and tell that she was the person who has placed the things in his house otherwise he will go and tell her whole family that she is still alive. Sophia tells him that she will not do this as he has killed her son and in case he is going to tell around that she is alive then she will inform Minx that all the pictures in her house are no more originals but faked ones by Elisabeth Peal. Lionel has to give in fearing his mother more than the prison. When Lionel did not appear the next day at the police station Mason now sure about Lionel's guilt gives instruction to start a hunt after him all over the country. When Lionel leaves the compartment a police officer in search for him asks him to stop. Lionel hurries through the train and the officer shoots behind him when he jumps out of the running train. Lionel gets wounded but can escape.
Eden is visiting Cruz again and he gives her this time the slides. Eden runs home and starts eagerly reading the content on the screen. She finds out about a precious stone which is hidden in an old drawer and gets the intention to find it.
Peter wants to leave the hospital. The doctor is not enthusiastic about and finds he would need some more time to rest. Peter tells him that he feels healthy and also is having no money for paying the hospital any more. The doctor informs him that he is having a tumour in his brain and he might not live for long. Peter gets very upset about this. The doctor tells him that it might not be that he dies many case proofed the contrary but he should take care for himself. He should not overcharge his body and he also has to promise him to buy the pills he is giving a receipt for the drugstore.
Peter makes himself ready to go. He is having no intention to follow the instructions of the doctor in the light of his near death. When packing he finds some letters Kelly has written to him. He phones to Kelly. She tells him not to bother about the letter he can keep them. Peter has got some flowers. He takes them out of the vase and gives it to a child in a wheelchair sitting in the hall. Veronica is just coming and sees Peter talking nicely with the child and thinks he really might have changed. Peter on seeing her takes her into his room. He again is thanking her for coming when he phoned to her. He tells her that when a person has been on the edge of the death then one is changing very much. All of a sudden Peter is feeling some strange pressure in his head and getting some hallucinations. He quickly asks Veronica to go. Veronica anyway not feeling so comfortable with him is going while Peter tries to get himself into control.
Peter goes to Joe and Kelly's apartment. Joe opens. Peter tells him that he wants to give back some letters to Kelly. Joe is very curt telling him that Kelly is at work and she anyway told him to forget the letters. Peter friendly tells him that he wants to make all again good what he has done in his live because he has been at the edge of the death and this is changing a person very much.
Peter goes and remembers all of a sudden that Kelly is working in the Lameza. He goes there and sits down at a table watching Kelly from far. It is shortly before closing time. The other waitress is working only since a few days. On finding Kelly phoning with Joe she tells her that if she likes she can go to her wonderful friend and she will finish off the rest. Kelly thanks her. Veronica comes in and sits down at a table. On seeing Peter she quickly goes out again not in the mood to talk to him. Peter watches Kelly and the other waitress and all of a sudden the other waitress who is also blonde is becoming for him Kelly. Kelly goes and the waitress comes to the table asking Peter what he wants as they are going to close soon. He asks for a orange juice. While standing before him Peter again all of a sudden sees Kelly. The waitress on seeing him looking at her so intensely is asking if he is alright. Peter says yes, she only is very beautiful and he likes to look at her. He exchanges some more friendly words and the waitress starts to find him nice. Peter goes but comes back shortly after nobody is anymore in the restaurant. He approaches the waitress in a shy and soft manner. He tells her that he finds her very attractive and would like to go with her for a drink. Not far away the next street there would be a nice bar. The waitress agrees and suggests to him to stay in the restaurant and take a drink here. Peter finds this alright and tells her she should bring champagne. She should not worry he will pay for it. He asks her if he can turn the sign to closed. She says yes, sure, she has only forgotten. Peter locks the door, turns the sign and puts down the venetian blinds. He goes close to her giving her a white carnation. He then strangles her placing the white carnation next to her on the ground.
