Blake is home and tells Ross how nice it was to wake up with him by her side
this morning.  Ross is dressed for work and tells Blake he has a new case. 
Blake says since you are going to win who is the poor guy who is going to lose? 
Before Ross can tell her its Roger, Ed comes in and asks to borrow some milk.
Ross tells Blake he has to go but they will talk tonight.  Blake asks Ed if he
needs any help around the house and he tells her no, he has hired a
housekeeper.  She then asks if he and Michelle would like to come over tonight
for dinner, something simple.  Ed tells her this is crazy but I can't even
think that far ahead and he leaves.

Nick is at AM's house (or Alex's) and is furious because AM didn't level with
him about Brandon framing Jenna's father.  If Brandon is responsible for this
man's death I'm going to make sure the whole story comes out. AM says he really
doesn't know the truth but he wonders if Jenna is trying to scam us.  AM says
her story just doesn't make sense because if it was true, Brandon would never
leave a paper trail.  He was too shrewed.  I suggest you research into it and
find out the truth.  Like it or not Brandon was your grandfather too and all of
Jenna's information is coming from Roger Thorpe.  AM gets interrupted by a
phone call from someone he has hired looking for Alexandra.  He hangs up
depressed because it was a false lead or something.  AM tells Nick she is your
mother and maybe you could show some concern.  Sleep well cousin and AM walks
out.

Mindy and Dylan are outside shooting skeets/target/plastic things that go up in
the air and Mindy is hitting every one of them.  Dylan asks if she is seeing
Eve's face on the target and Mindy says no.  She then starts naming people she
sees on the target such as a school teacher, a boy in 7th grade and Alexandra
Spaulding.  She misses the skeet when she says Alexandra.  Dylan asks her if
she has seen NIck lately and Mindy gets mad.  Dylan says I'm sorry but Nick
went thru hell trying to find you.  Mindy yells then how come I found him in
bed with Eve?  Dylan says he is sorry.  HE didn't know and he then pulls the
string for the skeets and tells her to take her best shot. A little later,
Dylan asks Mindy do you want Nick back?  She says I don't know.  Dylan says I
think you do.  Mindy starts crying (or at least I think that is what she is
doing.  Very poor acting on her part if you ask me.  Since you didn't I'll
finish the update)  Anyway, Mindy howls or something it hurts so much.  I
wanted to die.  

Ed and Michelle arrive at Company.  Ed says something about he ran out of milk
(I thought that was why he went to Blakes).  Anyway, David and Kat are also
there.  Ed tells Julie since Hawk is still in Europe with Sara I guess I need
to find someone to run this place.  (Who has been doing it all this time?)
David interrupts and says I know someone and you are looking at him.  Ed tells
him he will have to think about it.  David tells him how he has changed since
he stole his credit card and he manages the diner for Frank a lot when he is on
a case or Stravos is sick.  I can do both jobs just give me a chance.  Ed asks
Michelle what she thinks.  Michells says I think he's cute.  Ed says thats good
enough for me.  You can take the job on a temporary basis.  Ed and Michelle
leave (without eating) and David picks Kat up and hugs her. 

Roger and Jenna are at his office and Roger is going over how Nick does his
interviews and to be prepared.  Gilly comes in and Roger wants to leave Jenna
and Gilly alone to talk about the interview.  Neither one of them is thrilled
about his and Jenna asks Roger where he is going?  Roger tells her I have some
unfinished business with a friend.  Jenna laughs and says I knew you had at
least one more friend in Springfield.  He gives her a kiss bye.

At the Country Club, Leo arrives to meet Ross.  Leo asks what do you want? 
Ross wants to put their political differences aside since the campaign is over. 
Leo says I don't understand you. You won and then threw it away.  What the
hell, everything works out for the best and I'm certainly doing better now. 
Have you heard about my big case representing Jenna Bradshaw?  Ross says yes I
have and I have found a case too.  Leo asks with who?  Ross says a local
company, Spaulding.  Leo looks worried.

Now for all of you that were thinking Roger was going to see Leo, bzzzzzz. 
Wrong answer.  Roger is at Maureen's grave and lays flowers on it.  He kneels
down and says this is the first chance I've had to come by.  I know you
understand why I couldn't come the day of the funeral.  Did you like the
flowers I sent?  Roger gets real emotional and cries you never judged me.  I
use to picture what it would be like to live with you.  Remember the night of
the blackout?  I had a uncontrollable desire to kiss you.  Your approval of me
came to matter to me so much.  I can live with hatred of everyone in this town
but not you.  Your generosity totally disarmed me.  Thank you for liking me. 
It meant more to me that you knew.  I hope you don't mind Maureen  but I'm
going to keep visiting you.  I sure am going to miss you.  (Very touching
scene)  He stands up and sees Blake.  She tells him it was nice of you to send
white lilacs the day of her funeral.  Ed doesn't know who sent them but I knew. 
Roger says they weren't for Ed.  Blake tells him I miss you daddy.  I'm sorry I
hurt you.  Roger says I pushed you away and it certainly wasn't the way Maureen
would have handled it.  Roger says let me buy you something to eat at the
country club.  He hugs her.  Blake says ok and maybe you and Ross can get along
especially since you don't have anything else to fight about now.

Gilly and Jenna are arguing about the interview.  Jenna mentions that she was
in the hospital for a while and her mother lost her job and then their house. 
Gilly says oh so you were homeless, definately make the story sell.  Jenna says
not exactly, we did stay with friends.  They argue again and Jenna says you
know we are really not so different.  We are strong, ambitious and we know what
we want out of life.

Ed shows up at the grave site.  Hi hon.  I blew it this morning.  I forgot the
milk.  I miss you so much.  He picks up the flowers that Roger left and says
these are nice.  You have so many friends.  (I had thought earlier that Ed
would show up with Roger there but he didnt')

Fade to Roger and Blake entering the club and Roger tells her about Jenna's
lawsuit.  They see Leo and Ross  and walk over.  Ross is planting doubts in
Leo's head about Roger.  They notice Roger and Blake and Leo tells Roger that
Ross is going to be defending Spaulding.  Blake looks shocked.  Roger says how
perfect.  Life just gets more and more interesting and smiles.

Nick is opening the door to his house when he hears someone coming down the
stairs.  HE turns around and says Eve?  Mindy says no, its Mindy and I want to
talk to you.
