At the Beacon, Olivia asked Cassie to help her keep her half of the Beacon and told her she was scared Alan was going to invoke the prenuptial agreement and take her half. At first, Cassie reminded Olivia of how she tried to steal it out from under her when Richard was in the hospital and told her she would not help her. Olivia told her that Alan does not care about the Beacon only money and if something happened financially, Alan would withdrawal. Olivia said that she cared about the Beacon as does Cassie. Cassie new this was true and agreed to help her keep it.

He went back to the Beacon to wait and get ready and talked with Cassie. Cassie told him how good of a man he was and when he touched her cheek, you could see that she didn't want him to remove his hand.

Carmen called Danny to say good-bye and told him she was on her way to prison. She was really standing outside the Bauer's waiting for her chance to take Robbie. Danny told her to "have a nice life." When Mel left, Robbie and Michelle were alone in the house and Carmen rang the doorbell. When Michelle came to the door, she saw Carmen and Carmen said "I've come to get my Grandson."
