After Thanksgiving dinner, Babe tells Annie she is glad Richie did not show up because he did not get played by Annie and Ryan. Annie said she just wants to find out what her brother is up to. Babe receives a call Joe, who tells her that Richie is in the hospital. They immediately go to the hospital and are informed by Joe that Richie has ammonia. Joe said it could be life-threatening because of Richie's cancer, and the fact that he was searching for Zach all night did not help matters. Babe is first to visit Richie, who says he thought he could help find Zach because he has a wife and children. Babe tells Richie he has to fight to get well. Richie says everything will be alright because he needs more time to be with her. Babe goes back to Annie and informs her that Richie wants to see her. Annie goes into the room and Richie admits he came to Pine Valley to hurt her. He said he has no regrets, but is not looking for her forgiveness. Richie tells Annie to look in his jacket for a gift for her. Annie rummages through the pocket and discovers a vile of poison. He suggests she poison him so her family can be safe and he can be free. Richie says the poison will make his heart stop, like the ammonia, and the doctors won't suspect anything.
Ryan visits Kendall and Ian. Ryan tells Kendall that Spike can stay with her tonight since it is Ian's first night home. Kendall says that she has not heard anything new about Spike, but she is positive that he will come home soon. She thanks Ryan for being so supportive, despite the fact that he accused her of setting up Greenlee. Ryan says that sometimes Kendall ticks him off, and right now, he is more concerned about being her friend. Kendall wonders if perhaps what is happening to Zach is karma for how she has treated Greenlee. Derek comes by and says police found JR's car abandoned in an airport parking lot. He said dried blood on the passengers seat matched Zach's blood on Zach's car. Derek says police are looking for JR, but that is not good enough for Kendall. She immediately heads out the door to find JR, but Ryan stops her. Derek says he will find JR and leaves Kendall to care for her sons.
Tad hunts down Aidan at the home he and Greenlee shared on the run. Aidan says he has not heard from his friends in Canada and the motorcycles are still outside, so he is worried Greenlee is in danger. Aidan hopes Greenlee will return to the home she and him shared. Tad tells Aidan that he will find Greenlee and goes outside to investigate. Tad comes back inside, but did not find anything new. He suggests they wait until the morning to search again. Aidan tells Tad that he loves Greenlee. Frustrated, Aidan knocks over things in his apartment, and says that he does not want another person he cares about to disappear. Tad offers to stay with Aidan, but Aidan says he wants to search for Greenlee alone. Aidan walks through the woods and finds a piece of paper on the ground. Next, he finds Greenlee's cell phone and begins calling her name.
Greenlee begins to panic when she realizes Richie has covered up the hole in the shelter. She starts throwing cans at the hole and knocking over boxes, screaming for Richie to return because she does not want to die there. Greenlee stacks the boxes under the hole so she can stand on them. She grabs onto the top of the ledge and tries to make her way up the wall, but loses balance and falls. Zach checks on Greenlee and tells her that she has to pull it together. Greenlee starts having trouble breathing, and Zach kisses her to help her breath. When it doesn't work, Zach tells Greenlee to think of something calm and safe, so she fantasizes about Aidan rescuing her. Zach passes out and Greenlee rushes to his side, saying he can't die on her.
Erica apologizes for being so harsh on Jackson and offers to help him. Jackson says it is too late for her to help considering Greenlee is missing and might be dead. Jackson shows Erica the forged papers to the mental institution for Greenlee. Shocked, Erica says that she just wants to make everything right now. Jackson says nothing she can do will change was has been done. He says their relationship is over. Erica does not take him seriously, saying she will not accept they are through. Jackson says he has forgiven Erica so many times for the stunts she has pulled, but not this time. Erica says Jackson has always forgiven her because he loves her. She says the only way they can get past what has happened is marrying each other again. Jackson says being married won't make a difference. Jackson tells Erica she incapable of loving anyone but herself, which makes Erica think he is only trying to push her away. Despite the harsh words, Erica says Jackson still has not said he does not love her anymore. When Jackson says those words, Erica says he is lying. Jackson opens the door, motioning for her to leave, but she refuses. Jackson walks out instead, leaving Erica alone.
