Craig has broken free, knocking out Sal with a chair. He unties Lucy and she rushes to the gym to find Dusty. Margo comes to Metro and Craig explains the whole story, including Dustys involvement. At the gym, Rafis attitude makes Dusty realize that something more has gone down. When Dusty confronts Dom, Dom blows up at Dusty, insisting he knew Aaron was supposed to go down in the third round. Lucy overhears this and steps out of the shadows to confront Dusty. Meanwhile, after being tended to by Chris at the gym, Aaron is rushed into the hospital and attending Ben realizes he needs surgery. Fighting drug withdrawal, Ben prays to be able to do the surgery and goes off to prepare. Meanwhile, Holden comforts a despairing Alison. Chris informs Holden they have to operate and be prepared for anything. Rafael enters just in time to hear this and Alison begins to cry. Carly takes Jack home, and they discuss their past. The couple shares a close moment which nearly results in a kiss. Stranded, Mike and Jennifer decide to make an adventure out of their situation. Mike gets Jennifer to relax and they share a romantic kiss, just before being rescued by a State Trooper.
