Nina Does the Unthinkable to Protect Willow — and Britt Is Reunited With Jason

Alexis meets with Valentin at Bobbie’s. He says he owes her an apology, as he knows she was under scrutiny while he was on the run. She just hopes he’s going to be smart about this newfound freedom and do anything to end up back on the WSB’s most wanted.

Valentin doesn’t intend to, but he also won’t let the WSB stop him from taking back what’s his. He wants his money back, and he’s going to go through the WSB to get it.

 Where Is Britt?

At the hospital, Lucas tells Liz he’s off. Liz asks him to stay, as Britt is late and hasn’t called in, and she can’t with this woman today. He agrees to stay, and as they talk, Liz checks her computer and finds Willow has put off making an appointment once again to set Drew up with his communication device. She takes off to confront her.

Jack Has Questions

Joss meets with Jack in his office, and he wants her to sit in on an interview. That’s when Britt shows up, saying this better not take long. After some back and forth, Jack tells Britt that Cullum possibly left a black box behind at Wyndemere and they need it back. Did she see it?

Britt says she didn’t, as she was stuck in a lab there and tried to avoid Cullum as much as possible. Britt gets a text from Lucas saying she’s two hours late. She tells Jack she doesn’t have his box, so if he’s not going to arrest her, let her go.

Jack lets Britt go, and then asks Joss if Britt was telling the truth. Joss believes she was. Jack then asks if Joss ever saw the box, but Joss didn’t. She wonders if he’s looking for Cullum’s secrets, or trying to recover his own? Jack says the box contents are classified, and Joss accepts that if she’s not being told what’s inside, then it’s for a good reason.

 Jack tells her she’s free to go, so she leaves. Joss runs into Valentin in the hall, who says, “Back to work already, Agent Jacks?”

Is Britt Fired, Again?

Britt finally shows up to work, and Lucas asks what happened now. Britt explains she got dragged into the WSB for questioning and got a note since she knew nobody would believe her. Britt says this wasn’t her fault, and he says nothing is ever her fault, and she is the perpetual victim. Britt is sorry to tell him that she’s going to live, so deal with it. She storms off.

Lucas later apologizes for what he said to her at Bobbie’s about liking her better when she was dying; it was uncalled for. She forgives him, as he’s the only one who gets that she’s just doing the best she can. Lucas still calls her on her stuff, saying she needs to be less entitled and more gracious. He tells her if she doesn’t want to be here, then leave. Otherwise, she owes it to everyone to show up and do the work.

 What Does Dante Ask of Chase?

At the PCPD, Dante speaks with Chase about Willow.  He explains they are building a case against Sidwell, and Ezra has mentioned a connection between Willow and Sidwell. Turner wants to question her, and he’s giving him the option to bring her in. Chase asks if this is a test? Dante says he just wants to get back to trusting him, and this is him trying.

Chase wonders if Dante would be doing this if Anna hadn’t come back. Dante admits Anna wants Chase back as detective, and for them to be partners again. Dante is down to work with him again, and Chase would be as well. Dante says this is his call, and it won’t be held against him if he doesn’t want to do it.

A Troubled Family Reunion

At the Quartermaine boathouse, Scout talks to her dad about how she can’t wait until he’s back in the water with her. That’s when Danny shows up and hugs his sister. Following him is Jason, and things get quiet for a moment.

Scott tells her uncle that she’s glad he’s home, and Jason asks if he can talk to Willow about Danny and Scout’s living arrangements. Willow can’t today, but they can make time next week. Willow must get going to deal with an important call from the WSB, and Nina says she can get Drew home.

Scout tells her dad they are all family and have been through so much, so she thinks they should try and get along. Jason agrees; it’s time for a new chapter. Jason doesn’t want their problems to affect the kids, so they need to work things out for their sake. Scout notes that would be amazing.

Rocco goes to leave, but Jason stops him. He wants them to take a walk and clear something up. They take off, and Scout talks to her dad, and knows he’s angry with Danny, but says she loves living with him at Grandma’s house. Nina tells Scout that her dad loves her and wants her to be happy, isn’t that right, Drew? Drew blinks once for yes. Danny tells Drew he wants to do better for Scout, and she can always count on him.

Jason Supports Rocco

Jason and Rocco go up to the house, and Jason says Danny told him everything he did, and his son shouldn’t have turned on Rocco. Rocco worries he could still be arrested, but Jason says he’ll have his back if that day comes and take responsibility for shooting Cullum. Rocco asks why he’d do that.

Rocco expresses his guilt and how he should have done things differently to save Jason. Jason tells the boy he was in shock, so he made the decision to help him, and Rocco did nothing wrong. Rocco. Rocco asks how he can ever repay him, but Jason says he owes him nothing. In fact, it’s the other way around.

Jason says he saved his life and Britt’s, and he’s sorry for what it cost him. Jason tells the young man that he doesn’t have to carry all that heavy stuff anymore. He must find a way to let this go. Rocco asks if that is what Jason is doing, and Jason says he’s trying.

Liz Confronts Willow

Liz shows up to see Willow at her office and asks why she’s putting off scheduling the appointment to get Drew set up with his communication device. Is she afraid of what he might say? Doesn’t she want him to have a voice again?

Willow cries that she and Drew have so much to work through in their marriage, and trying to do so with him talking through a machine isn’t ideal. She knows that sounds awful, but Liz is, of course, sympathetic.

Willow thanks Liz for calling her out, and says she’ll set up an appointment for next week. They’re interrupted when the WSB calls Willow.

Liz takes off, and Willow answers the phone. It’s Jack, who says they’ve hit a dead end and the box isn’t at Wyndemere. Willow realizes it’s over then. Jack says he owes her mother, so he’ll put her and her kids on a plane tonight and disappear them.

Leading Up to Friday’s Cliffhanger!

Later at the hospital, Britt apologizes to Liz for being late. She got called into the WSB and should have told someone. Liz says she’ll have to tell it to HR and Stella, as she had to notify them she was a no-show. She then tells her she has a patient in exam one.

Back at the boathouse, Nina excuses herself when she gets a call from Willow. Scout suggests Danny tell their grandma that he’s back and calls her. Meanwhile, Willow tells Nina they are out of time; it’s over; the evidence is gone. Brennan has offered to get her and the kids out of the country tonight. He is arranging for new identities for them all, including her mom. She’ll understand if Nina doesn’t want to give up her life, and to let her know what she decides.

Nina heads back out, and Scout and Danny say they are heading off to meet their grandma at Bobbie’s. After the kids are gone, Nina is left alone with Drew.
