Ben (Brian Hallisay) hands over Emily's 'Amanda Clarke's' birth certificate to Margaux (Karine Vanasse) after she threatens to go after his ex-wife. She shows him footage of her in a diner. Later Emily (Emily VanCamp) and Nolan (Gabriel Mann) have the same footage and Emily tells him they have to get to her before Margaux realizes she's been played and the certificate is a forgery. Emily sees David (James Tupper) on the yacht and talks to him about Natalie (Gina Torres) and how he's seeing her, but he didn't tell her. Then sees Jack (Nick Wechsler) helping him out.
Ben decides he wants to go it alone, but Emily stops him in the middle of the road and tells him she's coming too. At the diner, April (Sarah Lancaster) arrives but she doesn't want his help. She'd rather stick it out here, as she explains that she had to go into witness protection cos of him. He went to raid the place where Wes Perkins (Trenton Rostedt) had his stash, but it was empty, so he knew she gave him up. He's coming after her now since Margaux told him where she is after she found out the certificate was fake and Emily tells her that's her fault. When he gets to the diner, he finds Emily in her place and she hits him, before Ben cuffs him. It's his third strike and he's going down for life. April thanks them and says she's sorry for acting out cos she's stubborn too, as Emily says she's the same. April saying he has a type he goes for then.
When Emily and Ben return they pass Jack on the road being stopped by the police. He's being arrested for drunk driving, but he stresses he's not been drinking and he's got Carl with him too. They don't want to hear it as they take him away. Another one Margaux's gonna have to answer for as far as Emily's concerned.
Lyman (Sebastion Pigott) loses the case for Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) and she fires him. He's not getting a penny so he goes and begs Louise (Elena Satin) for forgiveness, saying he's done her wrong, blah, blah, but they were close when they were little and he's got nowhere to go. So she invites him to stay with her and Nolan, without asking him of course. Nolan's angry she didn't ask and also that he coud've stayed on her yacht, unless he gets as sick of the sea as much as he is of Lyman. We then see him striking a deal with Margaux who's paying him for cosying up to Louise so she can get the goods from Nolan's hard drive on Emily and her friends. When he returns to retrieve the information, Louise catches him and realizes that's why he wanted to move in. She takes the flash drive and they wrestle by the pool before he falls to his death on the rocks below. Dangerous place to have a pool, Nolan. She's also mad at Nolan for not respecting her and for ignoring her family. Well he was right to wasn't he. Also how he keeps taking off his wedding ring and not putting it back on, for which she doesn't berate him. She tries to tell him she's done something bad, but doesn't get chance saying Lyman's passed out in the guest room.
Natalie throws the Fourth of July party and she flaunts the fact she's with David in front of her. As well as having all the money which should've been Victoria's. David seems to be falling for her charms and lies, even after Victoria warns him she's using him cos she's bought a place in Malibu and doesn't intend to hang around. She's not jealous either. Natalie latter trips in her heels and asks for some aspirin from her bag and inside David finds a watch.
At the party, she talks to the reporter making David out as having emotional problems and mood swings, which Victoria overhears. Yes Victoria in her red Special K dress! Natalie gets David alone in the room with her and rips the sleeve of her dress, shouting for him to stay away. He shows her Conrad's watch he found in her bag, with the engraving, Bunny and she says Lydia was a whore. She couldn't get Conrad so she went after his father and his money, which rightly belonged to Victoria. She drugged him until he signed over the money. Victoria tapes this on her phone and makes her sign the money over or go to prison. That seemed too easy. David thanks Victoria for saving his name and she adds it's good that he didn't kill her then.
Did you like that line at the end about first loves and how Margaux went after April, Ben's first love, their weakness and he asks Emily who her first love is and she replies, Jack. They made it appear he's her first love which is why Ben had to second guess her by asking her that she said Jack. But she meant Jack was being arrested. Though of course who's she kidding, Jack is her first love, it's obvious when they were little and it's obvious now. Think she was feeling guilty about everything they've been through and what she's been through and can't give it up, so she doesn't want to take him down with her. Though it's not surprising there are dirty cops everywhere, it's just surprising they crawled out of the woodwork now, right after Jack is no longer part of the force. But he's better out of it.
What was shocking was Lyman being able to get into Nolan's files (ha!) and copy all the data from them, was it really that easy. As well as finding out he's got the secret laptop hidden away to begin with. Not even Margaux could've known that. So that's all Natalie could come up with, no wonder she didn't get far as Conrad's mistress and Victoria takes all the money for Daniel's foundation.
