Spencer bluntly told Kevin that sterility was a possible side effect, angering Michael who went to Paige about his behavior. Kevin asked Duke about his feelings for Kelly, and Duke denied it. Evangeline questioned Viki about her DID on the stand, and although she apologized later, Natalie threatened Evangeline to steer clear of her family in the future. After being forced into therapy, John was upset to read that his therapist concluded he had severe post traumatic stress disorder. Natalie told John that her divorce had nothing to do with him because she hates him and will not forgive what he did. Nash refused to tell Tess about his past, but after opening up to Clint, Nash told Tess the whole story about Claudia Reston giving him money and then turning to drugs after he left her. Tess took the paternity test. After Spencer testified on the stand that Todd told him that he tried to kill a pregnant Margaret after she stabbed him, a furious Blair punched his face.

Kevin testified that Todd had attempted to strangle Margaret in a hotel hallway, but that it was self-defense because she had a gun. Todd was the only witness for the defense and he fully explained the whole truth, including that he went to the lake with the intent to kill Margaret.

Clint and Dorian got tipsy together, and Bo and David found them in a Palace suite that night. Kevin told Kelly that the virus had left him sterile. Kelly told Duke about the sterility as a hurt and drunken Kevin overheard. Kelly wanted to be supportive but Kevin felt emasculated by the situation. David learned Spencer caused Kevin's sterility.
