Peter leaves the office and goes to his apartment starting to pack his things having the intention to leave the city. He desperately tries to reach Kelly to inform her that she has not to come to her dressmaker. Finally he phones to the mansion asking to tell Kelly not to come for her meeting with her dressmaker. Ginger Jones has changed her mind and phones to Kelly. Her room mate is taking the phone and notes down the address which she gives later to Kelly. In the evening Kelly takes the phone. She tells Joe that she has to go to see her dressmaker and will be back soon. Kelly asks Ginger Jones to make quick as she has only little time. Peter has arranged Ginger Jones as a dressmaker for Kelly and Kelly is not suspecting anything wrong behind. Ginger Jones is on shortening her dress when two men with black masks enter the room and knocking down Ginger Jones and then Kelly. They put a cloth over Kelly's eyes while Ginger gets up again and is giving her an injection. They then tie her up put her into a blanket and place her on the floor of the balcony. Ginger then phones to the mansion and informs that Kelly is kidnapped and they should keep the phone open waiting for further instructions and to keep out the police of the deal otherwise Kelly gets killed. After a while she is phoning again asking to keep ready one million dollar. Peter Flint should hand over the money. Mason at once suspects that Peter is involved and is phoning to his apartment. He then let search for Peter. Peter is found and brought to the mansion. Peter is shocked on hearing that Kelly is kidnapped and his plan did not work. He shows himself ready to help.

After Kelly is not coming home for several hours Joe is getting nervous. When Kelly's room mate is popping in to fetch some things he asks her if she knows where Kelly has gone. The room mate can remember that she gave her a note with an address to see her dressmaker. She can remember that the name of the dressmaker is Ginger Jones and the name of the street but no more the number of the house. On hearing the name Ginger Jones Joe fears the worst. He asks her to phone to the mansion if she might be there. She shortly got told that she is not there and that Kelly is kidnapped. Joe is feeling desperate. He can't go out in search for her as otherwise he lands in prison but he also feels he can't just sit around and do nothing. He asks the girl to phone to Cruz and ask him to come at once. When Cruz comes he tells him that the only person who can help him now is Dominic as he is sitting the whole day and is watching the people and the streets on what they are doing. He asks Cruz if he can arrange a meeting for him with Dominic on his yacht. Cruz agrees.

Dominic is coming to the dark boat and enters the open door. He goes in and wonders why Cruz has ordered him to come when all of a sudden a person rolls from the bed to the floor. Dominic points his flashlight into the direction and can't believe to see Joe. Joe quickly informs him that it is really he and he is in need of his help as Kelly is kidnapped. He tells him the name of the street and that Ginger Jones is the dress maker where Kelly went last. He is sure that Ginger Jones is involved in this kidnap. Dominic tells him that the street he named is very long and it will be not easy to find the house. He tells Joe that first of all he has to be disguised. He brings all the material which is necessary to change him into an old man. After Joe is disguised Dominic starts to teach him how to go like an old man and how to talk. They then start for their search and really find the house. Joe goes to the door and knocks at the door. One of the man opens and he pretends to search for a certain person. Ginger tells him from behind that he must have missed the door but when Joe says sorry and goes she notices that he is not an old man and something is wrong. Joe tells Dominic about the two men and Ginger and that he is sure that Kelly is here and he wants to do something. Dominic tells him that this is too dangerous for Kelly and phones to the mansion. He tells Mason that a friend is on the phone. He gives the address of Kelly's dressmaker and says that the name is Ginger Jones.

Mason tells CC that he knows Ginger Jones. There is a big file on her at the police. He at once wants to go and see her. He asks Peter to stand by the phone. Mason is taking his briefcase and two police officer along and runs off with CC. On being alone Peter sees the briefcase with the money and is just on taking it when Mason storms in saying he will take better this also along with him.

Joe and Dominic on getting friends are talking also about Joe's innocence and the proof they have found. By this they notice that both were hiding things from each other before. On putting their knowledge together Dominic points out that all is leading to Lionel. Joe wonders how they should find this out. Dominic says that he knows how and Lionel will ever think on this.

Ginger Jones gives order to put Kelly into the trunk of the car and wait for her at a certain phone booth. If she is not coming till a certain time they should kill Kelly and flee over the border. When Mason and his men from the police are coming Ginger's men are already gone with Kelly. One of the police officer in civil dress is ringing. Ginger opens the door but not the outer door which keeps the flies away. The officer asks her if she has seen this man running there before. Ginger opens the lattice door to see and the officer at once pushes her against the wall. Two officers are bringing her into the room while holding her very tight. Ginger pretends to be very upset and makes herself free. She asks them what they want. Mason comes and demands from her Kelly. Ginger tells him that she herself has been a victim when two men came and knocked both of them down. Mason does not believe her and they investigate the whole flat but can not find anything special and leaves still with the feeling that she has something to do.

The men are waiting at the phone booth and getting slowly nervous. One of them wants already to go as the fixed time was over but the other finds he will not leave so easily one million dollars behind. In the last minute Ginger appears telling that she was delayed by a visit from the police but now they will proceed. She phones to the mansion and with a changed voice holding a cloth before her mouth she tells that Peter Flint should start driving and take instructions by his car phone. Mason is not sure if they should risk the game with Peter but finally Peter can convince them that he is also in worry about Kelly and ready to go. Peter gets the briefcase with the money and starts. Mason already has arranged that Peter's car is marked with phosphor and gives order to follow the car in a distant by car and by a helicopter. CC is shocked on hearing Mason's arrangement opposite to what the kidnapper demanded telling him that if something will happen to Kelly it is his guilt. Mason coolly is going on giving his instruction. Ginger Jones is changing the phone booth several times and gives instructions to Peter where to go. Finally she guides him to another car and asks him to change the car yet the police is able to follow him to a storehouse. Peter gets out with the money bag and inside the building. In the dark Ginger demands the briefcase with the money. Peter takes his revolver and is not ready to give it to her. He tells her that all notes are marked and will be of no use to her. The men all of a sudden shout that a helicopter is coming and the whole building is surrounded by police. Peter tells Ginger the best thing she can do now is telling him where Kelly is. He will take her out while they can flee over the roof. Ginger insists on taking the briefcase along but Peter is not giving it to her. Finally she agrees to Peter's plan and tells him in which car in the hall Kelly is packed. She runs up the staircase while Peter fires several times in the air and takes Kelly who is still in the blanket. The police is getting just ready to storm the hall when Peter shouts they should not shoot and brings Kelly while Ginger and her men can flee.

From behind a big garbage can Joe and Dominic watch the whole scene. On seeing Kelly getting free of her ties Joe nearly can't contain himself any longer and wants to run to her side but Dominic softly takes his hand and asks him to keep a cool mind and remain where they are. Peter is the great hero. CC thanks him and even Mason is impressed about his bringing back the bag with the money. They wonder a little bit the way he was shooting but Peter tells them that it was dark and he could not see but only guess where the persons have been. According to him there have been only two persons.

Kelly is brought to the hospital for examination and put in bed. She is questioned by some officers and Mason. She finds that three persons have been involved and one of them must have been a woman as this she could smell from the perfume even she was not able to see anything.

Dominic is not able to stop Joe from visiting Kelly in his disguise at a moment nobody is with her. Kelly at the first moment can't recognise him in the old man but when she notices who he is she was very happy and tells him that she will see that she is coming home as soon as possible. Peter is just on going to see Kelly when he notices the old man coming out. He wonders who he could be and watches how he goes over to the elevator. All of a sudden Joe bumps into a person and by this accident his wig is moving a little bit and Peter recognises that it is Joe. He runs behind him but Joe has already gone with the elevator. Kelly gets examined and as everything is alright she wants to go home. Eden wants her to come home but Kelly refuses and asks Mason to bring her home to her apartment. A happy Joe is expecting her. (She goes now to bed with Dane Witherspoon and wakes up with Mark Arnold).

Kelly discusses with Joe the kidnapping case. Joe thinks that Peter and Ginger are involved in the kidnap case but Kelly defends Ginger by telling that she also was knocked down. Joe on seeing that Kelly is getting weak in Peter's case tells her the truth that Peter's real name is actually Antonio Fiorno and he was working as a prostitute for Ginger Jones. Kelly's world and admiration is breaking down and she runs to get confirmation from Peter himself.

Joe wants Amy to spy on Peter. They are in search of a secretary as Veronica is off for some days. Joe organises that she is getting this job by another name. She should take off the receiver outside and listen to what and whom Peter is talking. Amy dislikes this job as she dislikes to spy but for her brother she is going to do this. Brick comes and asks her to come to a talk with Minx Lockridge for a job as a secretary. Amy tells him that she is having already a job. That's for the first time they are getting some dispute as Brick tells her that he has undertaken so much to show her up and now she is having no time. Amy tells him that she has not asked him to do so but she will be ready to go at another time as her job is only for a short time. Brick has to go to Minx and to tell her that she can't come. She introduces herself at Peter as the new secretary. Amy takes up some phones and finds out about some actions and specially Peter's relation to Ginger Jones. Peter from his side finds out that she is not known to the house and wonders how she got the job. She has to tell him that her real name is Perkins and therefore she has to hide her identity as she never would have got this job. Peter understands and lets her work.

Warren is meeting Summer. They get caught up in an elevator and warm up in this situation. Warren tells her about his problem with the coins and is getting a lot of understanding by Summer. Warren tells her that he has done it in order to protect a person. she asks if it is a good friend. He tells her that it is his father but he does not know about. Summer tells him that she is sure she also would have acted like he and she is so happy that he has opened up to her. The elevator gets repaired and as they are just in the mood in staying longer together they go for a dinner. After the dinner they feel still so fresh that they go to an amusement park. Coming home to the Lockridge mansion with a big bundle of balloons they find that they are still very much awake and go for taking a breakfast ending their evening in happiness and harmony.

Peter is getting visited by Ginger Jones in his office. He is not happy about asking her to better leave the city. Ginger Jones says no because now he is the great hero and she knows that girls like Kelly are so much on heroes. Now she will come back to him and they will get her money. The door opens and Kelly comes in. On seeing Ginger standing next to Peter she only looks at him and says she only came to thank him turns around and goes. Peter is baffled. He ask Ginger if she has seen the look of Kelly. She was looking at him as if he is the last dirt. He tells her that he has found out that Joe is alive and the reason for the break of their engagement. Joe must have broken his word and told her about his former life. Ginger tells him that it is only his imagination but then is noticing that Peter is getting a very strange and absent minded look. She asks him what foolish thing he is planning. He asks her who will care about when a dead person is getting killed. Ginger tells him that he will not be able to do this as his hand will shake and only one bullet which is missing it's goal can be already his final. Peter insists that she should organise a riffle by which he can shoot from a distance and unseen behind a tree in the wild park where nobody is around. Ginger finally gives in telling him that this will be the last thing she is going to organise for him.

Augusta and Lionel are in bed when all of a sudden they hear a strange noise. Lionel is going to look what it is and finds a swimsuit. He recognizes it as the one Sophia was wearing on her last day before the tragic accident followed by her death happened. He gets flashbacks on how she was wearing this swimsuit and about their dispute. She told him that she does not want to see him anymore and he did not accept this. He told her that she is not loving CC and he will not accept this break in their affair. He got somehow upset and started to shake her and by a push she fell over board. He hears Augusta coming and quickly hides the swimsuit in one of the drawers. Not long they are in bed the strange noise is there again. Lionel gets up and sees Sophia's bathing-cap. He also hides it in the drawer. He then finds in their living room a ring which Sophia has given to him once with her initials and which Channing has taken away from him. He wonders how it could come into his house and puts it on his finger but then takes it off again and puts it into an antique vase standing in their living room.

Lionel feels driven to go and see Sophia's tomb in the evening. He brings some flowers for the tomb and starts talking to the tomb when all of a sudden fog is streaming out of the grave and Sophia's ghost appears behind the tomb shouting against him that he has killed her. Lionel knees down and says no that this is not true it has been an accident. But the celestial voice from the ghostly appearance repeats again and again that he has killed her. Lionel runs home. He is very excited but tells himself that this can't be and he should remain calm. Somebody wants him to make him crazy. He suspects Eden behind. Even he can't understand why she wants to do this to him.

There is an exhibition going on in the museum. Augusta is making some very sarcastic and arrogant remarks when meeting Eden also there. Eden on getting irritated can't help to pay her back by making a remark that she should better take care for her husband adding on her surprised face that she sees it is always the old story the whole town knows except the own wife. Her remark is not failing the point and Augusta is getting very excited and jealous wondering who this woman could be. Lionel who is also in the museum is trying his best to get close to Eden unnoticed and then hisses to her that her joke at the grave yard has been not very funny but failed its effect. Eden looked at him more then surprised.

Ted's teacher an middle aged man with putting much pressure on discipline is not stopping to torture Ted during his lectures. It seems he is trying with all means to get something into his hands for throwing Ted from the school. He learns about the house and is having the intention to make problems to them by detecting it. One of his pupils should help him in his plans. He should phone there for him and rent a room. The student agrees but even not a friend of Ted he finds the idea of his teacher too much and so he warns the four of them. He rents then one of their room for the teacher. The four decide to stay in their house in disguise. Jade at the desk is getting a phone call. A lady wants to rent a room for one hour. Jade tells her that they are only taking people who want to have some peace for a few hours like students or so. She asks her for what purpose she wants the have the room. The lady tells she wants to use it for her meditation. The lady comes and gets the room. Not long after Danny is sending in his disguise their teacher to the same room not knowing that somebody is already inside. The lady actually a prostitute is very happy about this visit. She at once starts to get active in undressing him. The teacher is not quit sure what she is going to do while the one of the two tramps in a hidden corridor hears the voices and looks through a hole in the wall. The other one is just finding the money while the first one is eagerly looking how the lady is pushing the teacher on the bed and is lying herself over him. Danny and the others are getting a visit from the police who is asking for a prostitute which should be here. Jade tells that there is only a lady who is doing meditation. Danny by then recognises that this lady is in the same room where he sent their teacher. He mentions his error to Jade and the two police officer open the door. All are more than surprised to see the both half dressed on the bed. Danny quickly makes a lot of pictures from this scene. At this moment the tramp is falling through the thin wall and the police is at once recognising some wanted thieves. The police are arresting the prostitute and the thieves. They also want to arrest the teacher as he was not having any identity card with himself. The four are helping their teacher out by telling that he actually is their teacher and was in the room to detect the thieves. The police gets friendly and tell him that in this case he will get the reward which is for catching the thieves and the stolen money. The teacher happy smiles but the four at once say that their teacher already intended to give this money for a charitable institution. The teacher has to agree and the police officers thank and go. Danny then suggest a deal to their teacher. He is no more torturing Ted in the school and he will not show the photos to his wife. The teacher agrees but wants to have the film. Danny tells him that this he will keep in case he is breaking his word. The teacher goes humiliated and the four decide to stop their business for a while.

Peter visits Kelly and tells her that he is having the intention to help her in finding the proofs for Joe's innocence. He meanwhile also believes that he is innocent. Kelly gets at once open while Joe prays behind the curtain in the other room that she is not listening to him. Kelly thanks him and tells him that she will let him know how he can help. Joe warns her not to accept Peter's help as he is not honest. At another occasion when alone with Kelly Peter finds out from her about Dominic and that he is always making the appointment only by a short notice. Peter asks her to show to him such a notice as an example and Kelly innocently shows it to him. Peter quickly keeps in mind the way Dominic is writing.

Ginger Jones brings the wanted riffle to Peter but warns him again to fire properly. Peter tells her that with one shoot the job will be done and she has not to worry. He writes a note asking Joe to come alone to the wild park for a meeting signing with Dominic. Joe finds the note at the door. Kelly wants to know what it is and Joe tells her that it is from Dominic asking to come to see him alone. Kelly insists on accompanying him but Joe wants to follow Dominic's' request. Kelly gives in and leaves then for the mansion.

Peter gets his riffle ready in the wild park and hides himself behind a thick tree. Joe comes and on not seeing anybody at the entrance of the wild park he gets already suspicious that something must be wrong. Yet he goes deeper into the park and Peter fires a bullet but is missing Joe. Joe quickly hides himself behind a big tree wondering from which direction the bullet has come. Peter puts in another bullet and starts to hunt Joe. Joe runs for his live always hiding himself behind a tree or a rock. An officer in charge for the wild park is hearing the shootings and tries to locate. Finally Peter is having no further bullet and he takes his revolver and is succeeding to confront Joe directly keeping him in gun point. Joe asks Peter why he is doing this and Peter sure in being able to kill him any moment starts to talk to him. He tells him that he knows that he has not killed Channing but he did not say it because of Kelly. Joe gets excited and picks up quickly some earth and throws it into Peter's face. A heavy fight with their fists follows.

At the mansion Mason informs Kelly that Dominic wanted to talk to her. Kelly fears the worst and phones to Dominic asking him if he was not writing the note for meeting Joe alone in the wild park. Dominic says no actually he wanted to meet them now in the mill. Kelly jumps in her car and drives to the wild park. At the park Kelly just arrives to see the both fighting and falling down behind some bushes at a lower level. Kelly hears a shoot. Peter and Joe come out of the bush but the next moment Peter breaks down. His revolver has gone off by itself and a bullet has gone into his belly. At the same moment the officers of the wild park arrive and arrest Joe thinking him as the person who was firing the bullets.

Kelly drives behind to the police station getting the chance to talk a few words with Joe. He tells her that she will be of not much help at the station and better search out Dominic persuading him to give the alibi. He also tells her that Peter confessed to him that he has seen him entering the room after Channing was already killed and that it was he who has put the cocaine into his motorcycle.

CC gives order to Mason that now Joe has shoot Peter he should not much delay with a trial but get him quickly back to the prison. So Joe without much hearing gets transported by two police officers out of Santa Barbara to the district prison where he has been.

Santana finds out the address of the CC's friend Stockman and his family. She phones and little Brandon is taking the phone. She tells him that she is a friend of the family and would like to buy something for his birthday if he can't tell her when he is having his birthday. He tells her the date by which she gets sure it is her son. Mason on seeing that his father is starting to fight with Santana is at once using this situation to get close to her. Santana is having actually nothing in mind with Mason and tries still to keep distant. Yet Mason offers to her his help whenever she is in need for. When CC finds out that she has found out the address he quickly phones there to get this meeting hindered. Meanwhile Stockman has died and CC promises to Gina that he will take care about all the paper works while she at once should take the plane to a destination only she should know.

When Santana finds out that Gina has gone to an unknown place she makes a lot of troubles to CC to tell the place but CC tells her that he will give everything to her but this and she should forget it because the moment she is seeing Brandon she will tell him one day who she is. Santana approaches Cruz for help in this matter. Cruz tries to make it clear to her that there will be no good for Brandon when she starts to go to see him. Santana is very upset about Cruz and turns to Mason. She gets to know by this about her having a son but not the name of the father. He at once agrees to find out for her the place Gina and Brandon have gone. He phones to the airport and says that his father has booked a flight for Gina De Mott and her son and he wants to book in the name of his father exactly the same route and the same hotel for his father. By this he gets to know the destination which is Monte Carlo and the hotel. After a while he is phoning again and cancels the trip. Mason informs Santana who is very thankful to him.

Santana at once takes a flight to Monte Carlo and books in the same hotel the opposite room of Gina and Brandon. In the lobby she meets Gina as if accidentally. (At that time Gina was a lovely softly speaking woman. Nobody would suspect the beast behind her she later becomes) Gina who knows her as the girlfriend of CC is greeting her friendly and Santana makes a remark that she is here to think over her relation with CC and would like her to keep quite about her stay here when talking with CC.

It is evening and Gina is waiting for her baby sitter for Brandon getting a little bit nervous as the theatre she intents to go with somebody is on starting. Her company is telling her that it seems he has to go alone when Santana takes the chance and tells them not to worry she loves children and will take care for Brandon. Gina does not want to bother her but Santana softly insists. She sits down at the table and starts playing with him Domino telling him that she loves also Domino. Brandon is very happy about having found a playmate and starts playing with her. When the baby-sitter arrives after Gina has gone already Santana pays her the money asking her that it is alright she can go home again as she is staying with the boy. Gina comes home and is surprised to see Brandon still with Santana feeling somehow guilty. She invites Santana into her apartment for having a drink and they get friends. Santana tells her that she will be always ready to take care of Brandon when she is in need for. In the night Santana is starting to get night mares that she is taking Brandon along with her. She strengthens her friendship with Gina by going with her to the beach and Gina is having nothing against her playing with Brandon as he is very happy. Once when Gina is out Santana takes Brandon to her room where he falls asleep. She happily sits at his side watching him sleep. When he wakes up and is not seeing his mother he starts crying for his mother. Santana tells him that she will be soon here and while softly caressing his hair she calls him her honey boy. Brandon pushes her away shouting that she is not his mother and only his mother is allowed to call him in this way. Santana is shocked and at once gets disillusioned about her plan to take him along.

Mason travels behind Santana and appears in her hotel. Santana welcomes him not with such an enthusiasm as he expected after having done this great favour for her. Yet he goes on showing himself from his best side in proofing her what a nice fellow he can be. He sits in her room when she falls asleep in her bed. Santana is getting terrible nightmares on how she carries Brandon along with her and he shouts against her that she is not his mother. Mason lies down next to her and starts to wake her softly up and comforts her. Santana is not in the mood to deepen their relationship and Mason is disappointed but not giving up.

Santana is with Gina when CC phones. Gina tells him that everything is alright with them and asks him if he wants to talk to Brandon. Brandon takes the phone and innocently tells CC how happy he is here with his mother and Santana who is playing with him. CC at once wants to talk to Gina asking her to come at once along with the next plane and Brandon to the mansion as there are some problems with the heritage of her husband. He is not telling her that he has found out that his friend has left only debts and there will be nothing remaining for her. Santana asks Brandon the next morning if he can bring her some aspirins from the drugstore down. Brandon is proud that he is asked to do such a job alone brings her the medicine and tells her by the way that they are flying back. Santana books a seat next to Gina and Brandon in the plane and when Mason gets to know about he books the seat next to Santana. In the plane while Gina is falling asleep Santana and Mason start to play with Brandon by which Brandon also starts to make friendship with Mason.

CC is irritated when all the four of them are coming back. Gina gets a call and has to go to LA very quickly for settling the heritage matter. Summer Blake her sister accompanies her. Santana suggest to her to leave meanwhile Brandon with her. CC is against but Brandon is happy and Gina also thinks it a good idea. Santana tells her that she will take him to her mothers place.

Rosa wonders why Santana is showing so much interest into Brandon. When Brandon sleeps Santana tells her that he is actually her's and Channing's son. Rosa is shocked about the whole story specially that she only now gets to know about. She asks Santana why she never told her but Santana tells her that she could not as she feared that they would get upset and throw her out of the house. When alone with Brandon Santana can't resist to think about in running away with Brandon. She phones to the airport and orders two flight tickets for the next morning to South America. When Brandon awakes she tries to paint a wonderful pinkie future about a life together in South America. Brandon likes her story but is soon asking for her mother. Santana sees that Brandon is kept best with Gina and she will do him no good in going ahead with her plan. CC comes and is very upset about Santana. He tells her that sooner or later she will not be able to keep her mouth and tell Brandon who she is. She probably wants to take him even somewhere else and therefore he has come to take Brandon to the mansion. Santana gives in that she was considering something like that but she has understood that it is nonsense and therefore she has canceled the flight. She is not thinking on giving him Brandon along. Mason comes and tells his father to let Santana in peace. A fight between Mason and CC arises which starts to get heavy.

Augusta notices that Lionel is reacting more then strange since a while. She finds the swim suit and shocks him by wearing the swim suite when he comes home. On questioning him he tells her that it seems that somebody is showing some interest in getting him mad. But he will go and find out who and why. Lionel goes to see Eden at the tomb of her mother. Lionel asked her to come there in order to find out if she is the person who tries to get him mad. Augusta suspects Lionel in meeting the woman Eden was talking about follows Lionel secretly.

Kelly is meeting Ted in the mansion. He tells her that he has found out that the coin could be one of their coins but one cannot easily proof this as it belongs to a series of 1000 coins. Kelly is taking back the coin. Warren comes in and asks Kelly for his coin. Kelly tells him that the coin belongs to them and she is not ready to give it to him. Warren is getting upset and is taking the coin forcefully out of her hand. Ted hears their dispute and comes Kelly for help. He demands the coin back shouting to Warren that he has stolen it from them and starts to get it back from him forcefully. Warren pushes him back and runs away. Ted runs behind him. At the Lockridge mansion Warren snatches the whole bag with the coins over the door frame leading to their garden and escapes to the stable. When Ted comes Laken asks him what has happened. He asks her where Warren has gone. Laken tells him where Warren has gone. Ted takes a horse out of the stable and rides behind Warren. Warren rides to the hill. He stops at a big cave and buries the coin in it. Ted sees him coming out and rides with his horse into the cave.

Cruz is having a strange feeling this day and checks again the instruments seeing that an earthquake is ahead. Even for the danger that nothing might happen he gives order to secure the oil rigs. Not long after really a very heavy earth quake is shaking the beach and Santa Barbara.

CC is just on knocking down Mason when the earth starts shaking and the cupboard is falling over CC. Brandon gets covered under the table while Mason and Santana are falling down and get hurt by some falling things but can recover soon after the shaking ends. Mason helps at once Santana to set Brandon free. He is lying unconscious and no more breathing. Mason at once is making a mouth to mouth resuscitation bringing him back to life. Mason then is setting CC free who no more could move under the weight of the cupboard. CC thanks Mason for saving Brandon's and his life even after he just was going to kill him. Santana and Brandon are showing themselves also very thankful to Mason. CC and Mason ask Santana to stay with Brandon who should take some rest thinking that both of them are more save here now while they want to go and see what happened to the mansion.

Eden waits near the tomb of her mother wondering if Lionel finally will tell more about her mother. Lionel comes and puts some questions to her by which he gets confessed that Eden is having nothing to do with the ghost story. He is not able to talk for long when he sees Augusta watching them. Augusta turns around and runs away. Eden insists on getting to know more about her mother when the earth quake starts. Lionel asks her to sit down while he hunts behind Augusta to save her. Eden overcomes the earth quake safely even all the small trees are uprooted and everything looks terrible. She goes to the tomb of her mother and sees that the stone has moved. At the first moment she is shocked to see the grave empty but then remembers that her mother's body was never found.

Lionel hastens behind Augusta and sees her fallen down at a steep slope holding herself with one hand at a root. He tries to help her but another push of the earth lets them both slide down and down till they came to an hold at a little flat place. After finding their bones together Lionel suggests to sit and wait as certainly search troops will find them. They use the time to clear up their relation. Lionel confesses to Augusta that he was having an affair with Sophia and has been on the boat with her on the day of her death. He also tells her about the happening at the tomb and that somebody seems to try to make him mad. That he thought it was Eden but now knows that she was not.

Laken, Brick and Minx are in the living room when the earth quake starts. Brick and Laken jump under the table when all starts falling down. When it is over they get out of the mess and start searching for Minx. Finally they hear somebody knocking against the sarcophagus which was standing against the wall and has fallen down. They open it and Minx comes out completely saved by the sarcophagus. She asks them to go and stand quickly under the door frame as after shakes will follow and this is the most safest place for an earth quake. She adds that it was not so worse than the one she already has experienced.

Ted is having no time in the cave to search as the horse is already feeling the quake and storms out and throws him to the ground. Warren is already on the horse when he sees big stones falling down and closing the entrance of the cave while the horse manages to get out. He gets down and starts to pull away the rocks. He has to stop his job as again and again new material is falling down. Finally he succeeds in getting a hole through which he sees Ted lying unconscious on the ground covered partly with stones. He works quickly and hard to get a hole enough to bring Ted out. Not too soon as an after shake is closing all again. Ted recovers and thanks him. They get on the horses and return to the Lockridge mansion.

Kelly surprises Dominic with her visit. Dominic is just without disguise in a negligee by which it is clear that the person behind is a woman. She quickly hides her face and asks Kelly to go.
