Doctor's office. Christopher, you are the father! He looks devastated. He looks even sadder to learn Rebecca is having twins. (One of them is going to end up being someone else's, right?) Christopher joins Rebecca in the exam room while she's getting her ultrasound. She takes his hand. He's actually a little happy when he sees the two little lima beans on the monitor, but eventually pulls his hand away from Rebecca's. Ann, standing in the doorway, cries and leaves the room.
Later that night, Ann sits in front of a roaring fire, contemplating her locket again. Bobby walks in and presents her with the envelope. He tells her all about his visit to Ryland's office. "I'd be lying, Annie, if I said I didn't want to know what made you so upset," Bobby says. "I just wish you'd trust me enough to tell me." Maybe it's not about trust, dude. Maybe it just causes her too much pain. Ann cries. Bobby says he doesn't need to open the envelope. "Everything I need to know about you is right here," he says, touching her face. He drops the envelope into the fire. He totally should have given that envelope to her and let her decide what to do with it, but whatever. As the envelope burns away, its contents are revealed only to the audience: some newspaper clippings, a few photographs. One of them shows a young Ann cuddling a baby of unknown gender.
John Ross pulls up outside Elena's cottage and runs into her arms. He gives her several urgent kisses. "I know you're in trouble," she says. He's shocked, but she means the oil thing. She tells him about her meeting with Sue Ellen. Elena says she's going to help him. Their tender moment is interrupted when a police car drives up behind them, lights flashing. Bobby comes outside and reminds them that the charges against him were dropped. "Sir, we're not here for you," one cop says. They pass him by and head for John Ross, saying witnesses identified him at the scene of a crime. "This must be some mistake. What crime?" Elena asks. "The murder of Veronica Martinez," the other cop says. "I think you know her as Marta Del Sol." Dun, dun, DUN! John Ross is going to be adorable in prison orange!
