Daniel Grayson (Josh Bowman) sees Emily having dinner with Jack Porter (Nick Wechsler). Heartbroken, he goes on a drinking binge with Tyler (Ashton Holmes). Charlotte Grayson (Christa B. Allen) and Declan Porter (Connor Paolo) get to know each other more and Conrad Grayson (Henry Czerny) pays Lydia Davis (Amber Valletta) a secret visit.
Emily goes to the doctor Michelle Banks, who sent her to prison. She becomes her next victim, when Emily causes videos of her private therapy sessions with Victoria Grayson (Madeleine Stowe) and others to be aired at a luncheon hosted by Victoria.
