Georgia reads a book

UB is going up to pack. He wants Belle to stay right there and "Think romantic thoughts about the man she will love for the rest of her life." Predictably, she stands there thinking of a passionate moment with Shawn. As UB goes up the steps he turns around and tells her he loves her. Belle fantasizes more about Shawn. She picks up the phone and calls Mimi, "Meems, I have to see you right away."

Mimi says she will be right there. She tells Shawn she's going out. She wishes there was something she could do for Shawn, but doesn't see any way. Shawn says that's OK. He doesn't want to mess up what she has with Rex. Mimi leaves. Shawn mumbles, "I gotta figure out how to handle this situation with Belle myself, but I'm running out of time. I gotta do this before Phillip leaves." [Why, for God's sake?]

Belle tells Mimi, "I need you like I've never needed you before." This is a new twist. I thought she was after either Phillip or Shawn. Belle needs to talk to Shawn right away. Mimi asks, "Are you finally going to admit you're still in love with Shawn?" Belle does her blonde bobble head doll imitation.

JR agonizes. Oh, it's not the withdrawal, it's the pearls. "I should have known those pearls were for Sami." Kate says Sami is a spoiled brat and didn't deserve them. Kate says JR needs sleep. He says the pain is getting stronger. Kate says she called and asked Lexi to send over a prescription for something stronger, because JR needs something to help him get through this, "I'm going to be here for you." JR hugs Kate. He grits and shows devil-eyes.

Sami starts out the door. Euglena is outside thinking she "can't let Sami find me here." Sami is distracted by the fax machine starting up. She picks up the fax, in spite of Lucas' protests. She reads it and says it's proof JR is a druggie.

Bo tells Hope he kind of figured she was on the way here. He walks up to hug her and she pounds him right in the solar plexus. "We'll talk about this later," says Hope. They all decide they've got to get out of there. But Hope and Billie have to have their little confrontation. Billie tries 'splain things, "Hope, you know we had to come here because Georgia was here..."

"Was she," asks Hope, "was she here?" Billie admits she wasn't there, "It was a trick." No group hug here. Patrick goes to get the car. Hope grabs Bo by the ear and walks him across the room. She smacks him upside the head. She tees off on him for running off on her. Bo tells her she's always forgiven him before. Hope says, "That was then, this is now."

Billie checks her watch, "Wait, did you hear that?"

"Georgia" silently rocks and reads a book. Fade out on Georgia.

"Shawn says, "What Belle is saying and what she is feeling are two totally different things. One way or another we have to get to the truth."

Phillip whispers in Belle's ear, "Would you promise me while I'm away you won't go near Shawn?"

Sami wants Lucas to know how devious Kate can be. She knows she's up to something, she just wishes she knew what it is.

Bo tells Hope he needs to go find out what's taking Patrick so long. Hope says, "Yeah, so you can check on Billie."
