At Stephanie's, Amber sat and drew a design. Stephanie startled Amber. Stephanie and Amber chatted for a while. Amber again tried to convince Stephanie that she has changed. Amber went down to the pool to finish her work. When Amber left, Brooke arrived. Stephanie proposed to Brooke that they demonstrate to Thomas that Rick is the love of Amber's life and always will be. Stephanie also wanted to show Thomas that Amber would break up with him in a second if she had the chance to return to Rick. Brooke did not like the idea of Rick having any involvement with Amber.

At the Marone home, unknowingly, while in front of Massimo, Nick encouraged Deacon to help Jackie come out of her depression. Massimo protested to himself. Nick tried to prod Jackie out of her bedroom to no avail. Jackie told Nick that she feels responsible for Massimo's stroke. When Nick left, Deacon taunted Massimo about the doctor's observation that Massimo had increased brain activity. Deacon suspected perhaps Massimo was trying to signal Stephanie and Ridge when they visited by his tapping. Deacon thought about it again and decided that since Massimo is a vegetable he couldn't be asking for help. Later, Deacon managed to convince Jackie to go out to dinner with him. Deacon cleverly suggested that they go out after first denying Jackie tranquilizers that she badly wanted.

Back at Stephanie's, Rick arrived to help Stephanie with her plan. The plan was that Rick would allow Thomas to see him and Amber together so he would realize that Amber still has feelings for Rick. Rick admitted that he hated to deceive Amber and hurt Thomas. However, Rick felt that Thomas's break up with Amber was in Thomas's best interest. Stephanie telephoned Thomas and asked him to come over to talk. Thomas agreed to go even though he suspected the talk would be about Amber.
