At the farmhouse, Cassie tells Josh she will only be able to trust him again if he spends an entire night with Reva at Cross Creek to see what happens between the two. Josh says the idea is ridiculous. Josh accuses Reva of being behind the idea, but Cassie insists the test was her own idea. Josh offers to leave Springfield with Cassie and never look back. Cassie says that is quite an extreme thing to do just to avoid a night with Reva. Reverend Rutledge shows up to perform the ceremony that is supposed to be taking place. Cassie and Josh tell him the wedding is postponed for a few days. Likewise, Matt shows up to help with the wedding and is given the same news. After the two leave, Cassie insists that Josh go to Reva. Billy shows up out of nowhere, hearing that the wedding was called off. He tells Josh, that as crazy an idea as it is, maybe it will just put an end to the insanity of what has been going on lately. Josh is not pleased. He does, however, agree to go. Having kissed Cassie good night, Josh leaves a message for Reva that he guesses they do have unfinished business.

At Company, Harley complains to Buzz that she thinks Natalia is after Gus. Buzz thinks she is wrong and encourages her to go talk to Natalia. Harley finds Natalia's car and looks through it. In it she finds a map to Gus and Harley's house and some old love letters from Gus to Natalia wrapped up in ribbon. She leaves the car to find Gus and Natalia at CO2 arguing about Natalia's need for legal help. Gus wants to be her lawyer. When Natalia refuses his help, he gives her Mel's card. When Harley meets up with the two, Gus says he has to go work on a case. After strange small talk, Harley accuses Natalia of trying to steal her husband. She almost reveals the letters to Natalia, but holds them back. She asks Natalia that if she didn't return to Springfield to be with Gus, what did cause her to move there? Gus returns after having run into Rafe at Juvie Hall for some reason. He reveals that he knows Natalia left Chicago to get away from her old, sexually harassing boss, Couzzo. Natalia "admits" that that is why she left Chicago. Buzz shows up and Harley takes him aside and asks him to fire Natalia.

Outside his and Dinah's room, Mallet is confronted by Griggs who is angry that Mallet told Blake about his and Mallet's past. Mallet says that Blake is a flake. He pulls Griggs away to go talk at the docks. After Mallet leaves The Beacon, Matt shows up at his door and is greeted by Dinah. Matt admits that he is lonely since Vanessa won't take him back. Dinah encourages him that Vanessa will come around and forgive him.

At the docks, Griggs tells Mallet he is angry that Mallet left him hanging—that they had unfinished business. Mallet offers him money to go away, but Griggs refuses. Mallet pulls a gun on him. Griggs tells him that if he is found dead, his attorney has instructions to release a letter that spells out all of Mallet's past illegal deeds. Dinah shows up, having seen Mallet's car. Griggs heads out of sight, but doesn't leave. Dinah is worried when she sees that Mallet has drawn his gun. Mallet lies, saying he was after a suspect who got away. Dinah suggests they fool around on the dock, but Mallet isn't interested. As they leave to go get bbq take-out, Matt calls Dinah and invites the two to join him for dinner. She doesn't want to. Mallet takes the phone and accepts the invitation. At Company, Dinah is glad they have met Matt for dinner since he seems a bit more optimistic. Mallet excuses himself from the table and goes outside to confront Griggs, who has been watching them through the window. Griggs threatens to expose Mallet, leaving Dinah vulnerable while Mallet is incarcerated. He tells Mallet that if he does one more hit for him, he'll consider them even. He says there's a guy who owes him money and hasn't paid up. Now it is time the guy pay up another way. Griggs hands Mallet a picture of the target—it's Matt!

Coop arrives to pick up Ava to go to "Company" (the diner) for a working dinner, and finds Ava dressed up as if for a date night. She says flattering things to him and his writing ideas for Spaulding Enterprises, trying to get him to leave teaching and work full time for Spaulding where he could make more money. Coop gets a phone call from Daisy, who tells him how Ashlee is nervous about her meeting tonight and that Doris probably won't show up. Coop tells Ava he has to leave to help Ashlee. Ava adds up the fact that Coop likes his job at the detention center where Ashlee is, and the fact that although Ashlee needed him for support she didn't call him, and that he is breaking plans they had to go help Ashlee, and tells Coop that Ashlee is in love with him. Ava thinks Coop likes the things around his teaching job more than teaching itself, and Coop is bothered by the fact that Ava doesn't take his love of teaching seriously.

Daisy and Ashlee share nice moments talking in their room at the juvenile detention center. Daisy notices that Ashlee is attracted to Coop and encourages her to let him know, though Ashlee doesn't think Coop could like her in "that way", and is afraid of risking losing him as a friend if she lets her feelings known. Ashlee notices that Daisy is attracted to Rafe, who she calls "vent boy" since he talks to Daisy through a vent in the wall between them. Ashlee is nervous about her first meeting with her counselor, in part because she doesn't think Doris (her mother) will show up. As the meeting is about to begin, the counselor notices that Ashlee's mom wasn't there, and says that people who are there without a support system tend to do poorly there. Just then, Coop arrives and says "she's got one – me." Ashlee beams, surprised and happy to see him there. After the meeting, where Coop said glowing things about Ashlee, an appreciative Ashlee thanks him by kissing him. Ashlee is pulled away from Coop, who seems a little surprised by the unexpected kiss, by a guard who tells her she should be in the common room.

Meanwhile, while Ashlee was her meeting, Daisy and Rafe talked a little through the vent again. Daisy senses he doesn't open up to people easily, and writes him a note that says "I'm on your side", and passes it to him through the vent. Later, in the common room where they all gathered for a meeting, Daisy sees Rafe, who passes her note back to her with his added response: "I'm glad." They both smile shyly.

Cyrus drives Alex to Main St. where she sees Ava and comments how Ava knows more about what's going on at Spaulding Enterprises that she does, and feeling her age a bit as she notes the fact that Ava was a "pretty, young thing". While Alex if getting a facial, Cyrus goes over to Ava and starts to talk to her, being friendly, introducing himself someone who, like Ava, works for the Spauldings. While viewers don't see Cyrus in action, he somehow is able to take Ava's PDA from her without her knowing, and hands it to Alex later.

While Cyrus wait sin the car for Alex to complete other errands, Marina gets into the backseat and questions Cyrus about Ava's missing PDA. They spend some time talking with some hints of flirting. Alex talks to Frank in the diner, telling him to stop harassing her driver (Cyrus) or she'll press charges, which Frank doesn't take to seriously until Alex mentions that Marina is in the car with Cyrus and they looked "thick as thieves" knowing this would upset Frank and have him go to try to get Marina away from Cyrus, which seems to be Alex's motive. Frank does find Marina in the limo and angrily opens her door; he makes it clear he is watching this situation closely, being protective of Marina. After Alex is done with her errands (and done gathering the information that Ava had in her PDA about Alan's schedule), she tells Cyrus she will protect him from Frank's wrath but suggests it is best to stay away from the Coopers for a while (with an apparent agenda of keeping Marina away from Cyrus) She returns the PDA to Cyrus, and also hands him a gift she bought to show her appreciation – an expensive watch.

Harley is suspicious of Natalia's motives for being in Springfield, believing she is trying to steal Gus away. She and Frank go to the dock to talk, Harley wanting to fire Natalia and Frank trying to reason with her, trying to calm her fears. In this cute scene with brother and sister moments, Frank listens, then tries to reassure her that Gus loves her and her kids. Harley does know this, and is starting to calm down a bit, until Frank refers to Natalia as "hot", and repeats this a few more times! Harley calms down again, and in the spirit of trying to be rational and understanding, says, "at least she's not trying to take over my life", and decides to go visit Daisy.

Natalia goes to the detention center to visit her son, Rafe, and is worried that his recent incidents there will not help his case when it goes before a judge, and that he may have to stay longer. She gives him Mel's name as his new lawyer. As Natalia is about to leave, Daisy sees her and thinks she came to see her, so Natalia now has to act as if she did, and sits down for a visit. Harley arrives to visit Daisy and sees that Natalia is there..."with my daughter", as Harley says with a hint of attitude. Harley asks Daisy to go to her room; Harley and Natalia exchange a few strained words, then Harley fires Natalia from Company, and accuses her of being in town for one reason only – to try to get Gus for herself. Natalia almost begs Harley to let her keep her job, saying she needs it. Harley tells Natalia she can get a job anywhere, that it doesn't have to be in Springfield, and pushes Natalia to name one reason she needs to stay there. Natalia walks away, not wanting to reveal she has a son there, Gus' son.

She runs into Remy outside of "Company" and tells him Harley fired her. Remy, who knows about Rafe being Gus' son, searches for and finds Harley. He tries to stand up for Natalia, but Harley is adamant about Natalia leaving. They both say that there is a lot that they each don't know about the situation. Remy leaves, trying to not let Harley know about Rafe, as he promised Natalia. But Harley catches up to him, and he tells her that Natalia has a child. At first, Harley thinks the child is young and Natalia needs money for day care, but Remy continues, and tells Harley that Natalia had the child right after high school. Harley figures out that this is Gus' son.

The conversation turns to Rick's situation and Mel warns Rick that Alan will not rest; he will fight dirty to get custody of the baby. At that point, who but Alan should arrive at Company? Alan taunts Rick about impregnating his wife and then having lunch with Mel, the woman whose heart Rick broke. Alan's taunting gets Rick's ire up but Mel advises him not to let Alan get to him.
