Ben and Maria are speechless when Meg catches them kissing. Maria stops Meg from leaving and thanks her for being willing to help her, regardless of who she is, which completely confuses both Ben and Meg. It turns out that Ben is still legally married to Maria. Ben promises that he won't stop until they have their future secured. When Cole tells her that he'd decided that he isn't going to steal the rubies, Francesca realizes that AJ has the rubies. Francesca tells Cole that if AJ has the rubies, then he's as evil as Bernie and Hillary are. Sydney tells Cole that he and Francesca belong together, and he admits that they did always say that death is the only thing that could separate them. Olivia tells Annie that she's not sure that Cole will be willing to steal the necklace from AJ, so she wants Annie to convince Gregory to buy the necklace from AJ so that Cole can steal it from her. When Annie says that AJ would never sell the necklace to Gregory, Olivia says Annie that she'll make sure that AJ's willing to sell the necklace to Gregory, and Annie's job will be to convince Gregory to buy the necklace.
