Emma turns back to Ethan and asks what to do. She is starting to collapse under the guilt of hurting Sutton's friends and family. Ethan tells her she can only hope they will understand and forgive her. Those Whitehorse men are just rich with the useless advice, aren't they? This ranks right up there with the floatie. Emma knows that she's nothing to these people, and they'll cast her out the minute the truth is revealed. Though he has nothing to say that will comfort her, Ethan puts his arm around her. She whispers, "You're Sutton's boyfriend." He says with resignation, "I know." They look into each other's eyes, let it linger for a minute, then she leans her head on his cheek as he strokes her hair. Not yet, my friends, not yet. But it is coming. Or my name isn't Sutton Mercer! Oh wait...

Out in the kitchen, Ted arrives home from work. Kristin tells him she and "Sutton" played tennis earlier that day. He says cryptically, "Anything... interesting come up?" Kristin's all, "As a matter, Sutton thinks her mom died in a fire and that you're a lying, secret-hoarding lunatic with a creepy best friend!" Actually, I may have added that last part. Either way, it's enough to pique Ted's anxiety. Even more so when Kristin tells him "Sutton" wrote down a message from one of his patients. Ted takes one look at the notepad and lies that he forgot to bring home some test results.

Moments later, he's meeting Alec in a parking lot. Whip smart Ted has finally put the pieces together that Laurel's confession was bogus. Alec snaps, "What are you, a detective now? Lay off the Law & Order reruns, stick to the rhinoplasty, Ted." Ted is spinning out of control, so Alec tells him to keep it together. "We know how this works: If there's dirty work to be done, just leave it to me -- just like in high school." Ted tells Alec he does, indeed, have some dirty work then hands him the notepad: Different cutesy doodles of the name Annie are written over it. Nice secret sleuthing, Emma! She may not get her backhand from Kristin, but it looks like she did get her detective skills from Ted. Sheesh.
