Laura yells Alicia (Alysia Joy Powell) to take the boys cos she's got a fever and she doesn't want to give it to them and also that she thinks it's food poisoning and she had a bad reaction to clams, which obviously was her clue that something's wrong, only it took Jake a while to call Alicia and find out what she said to her and what's wrong with Laura. Especially after she ignores his texts and calls to her and proves something wrong cos she does the same to Max (Max Jenkins) even when he annoyingly hangs up once and rings again and she hates that.
Anyway Jonathan thinks Laura framed him and wants to know why cos there are corrupt cops out there, she's not one of them though and wants to make him coffee cos he's fallen off the wagon. He throws the knives into the bin and you know what I said she could just as easily have thrown hot coffee onto his face! When later she hits him with the coffee pot, well close enough! ha. She watches the video with him cos she says there must be another suspect and they think it could be Brenda (Stockard Channing) cos she had so much to gain with the company. Jake also texts her that they're looking into her. Brenda tells Jake she may be a bully but she's not a killer.
Meredith and Billy (Laz Alonso) check out the building and Meredith is given Jonathan's computer by Billy for her to work her magic on. As well as his assistant, Ellen (Bo Stansell) being around, who was my next suspect cos she couldn't have just casually ignored him going in or out. As well as she being the only other person who was shown and they spoke to in their investigation. They find a vent pried open which could've been used to get through and also the chemicals in the bomb were also in the cleaning cupboard and he would've had access to them.
Laura finally convinces him that someone else must be involved and on the video Michael (Richard Hughes) apologizes for being a bad father after explaining that he didn't leave him anything. He should've been a better father and Jonathan wants to know why he couldn't tell him that in person. On top of that, he also tells Laura how he crashed into an entire family when he was drunk and his father got Brenda to sweep it under the carpet. But he's given up and tries to shoot himself but Laura won't let him. Jake tells Billy something's wrong but he wont let him use protocol cos of shoots outs and anything else can happen and they go to the house together. Luckily that blue bag was no longer lying around outside! ha. They use a snake cam and Jake enters through the window, as Alicia arrives with medicine. Jake sees them in her room and Laura asks for the gun and Jake comes in, putting down his own gun and telling Laura to leave. He won't go without her. He grabs his gun and Laura grabs the bomb placing it in the washing machine.
Jonathan wants to talk with Laura but Meredith won't let him as he gets agitated, mentioning how the Vineyard police were paid off. Laura recalls the mug on Ellen's desk with the fudge was from Martha's Vineyard and she has Max (Max Jenkins) check out accidents. They find one where a family was killed but a seven year old daughter survived, who was Ellen and she changed her name. Laura calls her telling her they haven't found the murder weapon and she needs to see the computers, so they agree to meet next day. But Ellen goes back to plant the gun in the night. How stupid was that considering they would've looked for it everywhere already wouldn't they. She hoped he would see the mug and recall what he did and even who she was and ask about it but Jonathan didn't remember anything. So she shot Michael and framed him.
Laura tells Jonathan to get help and he won't get off this time but she'll put in a good word with the judge for him. Then he'll have plenty of time to do something to make his father proud. Santiani (Callie Thorne) tells Jake he can have a free pass this time and asks if he'd have approved the actions of Billy and Meredith if they'd have done that on his watch. He apologizes and she accepts. But Billy did do that and help Jake and she didn't reprimand him.
Two mentions of Jake's eyes, one last ep when Meredith calls them his "baby blues!" Ahh and now when Brenda says they sent him here with his blue eyes to loosen her lips! ha. Then she says she plays for whichever team has the cutest players, after she makes a pass at him, oh yeah he's still got it. Then later at the bar Meredith tells Laura she's glad she's okay and Laura hasn't thought of Tony all day, as she watches Jake with Billy. It's like you don't know how good you've got it when it's right under your nose. I like those sorts of scenes, they're so touching when you watch someone from afar and they don't notice you're doing that! Also it's so doubly romantic when it's someone like Josh!!
But that Laura's having second thoughts is a good sign, since he'd do just about anything for her and here he proved that. Not only by risking his life with the bomb and going after Jonathan and the gun, but also by ignoring protocol and wanting to rescue her himself and making sure she's okay. It's not about playing hero and getting recognition for it but genuinely out of love for her and putting his life on the line to save hers and also for the boys.
Okay calling it here with Stockard Channing, cos murder is, "the worst thing I could do!" Ha.
