But this medical condition allows her time away from Eric and with her own thoughts about what she wants to do, which is to give the baby up for adoption since she doesn't trust Eric not to run away again if things get difficult. Olivia ends up being Shelly's personal and legal confidante, which places a strain between Olivia/Jack and Eric, the latter who sees his father and his father's girlfriend siding with Shelly's wants over his. Under the strain of his relationship with Eric, Jack contemplates returning to past comforts, namely the bottle. What Jack, Eric and Shelly are unaware of is that Olivia too has to overcome her own emotional distress, as this situation marks the first time that she has been in the hospital since Jordan's death. Meanwhile, two shady looking characters approach Maryellen looking for John, they who seem to know all about her and John's relationship. And in the aftermath of the restaurant fire, Justine and Seth consider their options. It is a difficult situation if they want to rebuild due to having no insurance moneys and no more personal savings.

Feeling like Shelly, Jack and Olivia are conspiring against him to take his yet unborn child away, Eric threatens to call in a lawyer of his own so that he can get custody of his unborn daughter.

The situation is made all the more difficult for Justine by Seth, who does something to advance his and Justine's relationship. Maryellen learns from Macafee and Sheriff Troy that the two men that approached her are John's old prison mates, and that the authorities believe John will go into their forgery business in large part to protect her against them. Maryellen has to decide what to do, receiving what she considers the contradictory advice to stay clear of John - essentially abandoning him - despite he doing what he may end up doing purely to protect her.
