Bruno informs Katie that they are leaving Oakdale immediately. Simon breaks down the door of the Lakeview and charges towards Bruno, who drops his gun. Katie picks it up. When she goes to fire it, she discovers that it is a water pistol. Simon tosses Bruno out, kisses his wife, and carries her to bed. Just as they are about to make love, Katie tells Simon that she wants to wait. Molly and Jake go to see Lucinda. Molly and Lucinda commiserate over what it is like not to know what your child is thinking. Lucinda is concerned that Sierra has turned to Craig for comfort. Meanwhile, Nick pays Abigail a visit. He gives her a video that he made of her performance at the wedding and tells her it is a goodbye present. Nick tells her that they shouldnt be friends anymore. She asks if he is leaving because of Molly. He replies that he likes her too much to be near her and leaves. When Molly and Jake return, Abigail confronts Molly about why she hates Nick. Craig asks Hal to help him keep Jen and Billy apart. Hal is reluctant to believe that Jen was involved with Billy and tells Craig that he cant keep them apart. When Billy tells Jen that they cant see each other anymore, Jen reveals that she told Craig the truth about the two of them. Billy is still afraid that their being together will hurt someone, but Jen manages to convince him otherwise. Later, Billy informs Craig that he is going to stay in Oakdale. At Fairwinds, Jack questions James about his involvement in getting Roses rap sheet for Barbara. James claims not to know what Jack is talking about, and insists that he has not had any contact with Barbara since he returned to town. Stenbeck leaves and Jack confronts Barbara about whether or not she knew that James was in town. Barbara lies, but Jack doesnt believe her. After Jack sets off to find Paul, James returns. Barbara, fearing that Paul will find out that she used James to blackmail Rose, kicks James out of her house.
