As Joe was sitting at Rose's grave, a voice over of Rose talked about her life, how she had changed and what she had accomplished. She said she was too young to die and she promised she would find out who killed her and that person would pay dearly. Rose runs down the suspects: Paul, Dusty, Molly, Mitzi and Barbara!

Jack walked in as Hal was looking at the list of suspects. Jack asked him if he figured out who killed Rose. Hal said no but he would. Hal started to list out the possible motive of each person. Hal said Mitzi's motive was that she had stolen money from Rose. Jack dismissed it because he felt that Mitzi wasn't that shocked to see Lily, who was portraying Rose, when she and Lily met at the bar. Hal called Mitzi an opportunist and she wouldn't pass up an opportunity. Next up was Dusty, who was brought in to break Rose and Paul up but was a walking contradiction. Then there is Molly, the scorned lover. She was in love with Dusty and jealousy could have driven her to kill Rose. All the evidence has pointed to Paul but Hal doesn't feel that Paul did it. Jack said he was the number one suspect. Lastly, there was Barbara. Hal said every time he thought of her, he got a pit in the middle of his stomach. Hal thinks Barbara is the number one suspect.

Mitzi showed up at the hospital to see Lily. Lily made Mitzi promise to go to Rose's and make sure no one gave away Rose's things. Later, at Rose's, Holden was putting Rose's things in boxes for the church to pick up. Mitzi intercepted and hid them just as Lily asked. Lily was released from the hospital and went directly to Rose's where she watched the wedding video as Holden pounded on the door.

Molly was telling Craig about Dusty's behavior. Craig asked her why she was wasting her time dwelling on Dusty's fixation with Rose. Molly told him that she really loved Dusty and doesn't know what to do. Craig told her not to worry because the police have their number one suspect: Paul! Late, Molly told Craig he got a call from Miss Feddle saying she would be paying him a visit real soon!.

Jennifer told Paul what Barbara did with the evidence but also told him that Barbara did it to protect him. Paul didn't buy it.

He goes in, has lunch, and daydreams that all is right with Lucy. He snaps out of it, and asks Lucy if they might still have a chance if all of his mess was fixable. She says they might have a chance. He rushes off to the hospital to watch Alison confess.

Holden knocks at the door and they both scramble to hide Rose's things. Holden and Lily return to the house. Mitzi imagines how to ask Lily for the Roller Palace.

Tom demands that Hal bring Paul in for questioning. Jack confirms the call placed to Paul was untraceable since it was made with a disposable phone.

Later at the Snyder mansion, Holden notices the scarf and shows a little concern that Lily might be flipping out again. He makes an excuse to run an errand. Dusty stops by to tell Lily about Paul. He demands she step up to the plate to convict him of murder. Dusty pokes at her, "Come down to the station with me and make it very clear to the cops what they need to do." Just as her rage starts to simmer, Luke comes in and asks when she's coming back to the kitchen because they need to finish the cookies. Lily wavers but Dusty pushes her to use her influence to pressure the police. She calls Mitzi and asks her to babysit. Holden returns and finds Mitzi. He confronts her about Rose's old clothes. "What's your game? If you think I'm going to let you use my wife like you used her sister...think again." She leaves, and outside she says, "You won't see it comin'."

At the Lakeview, Jen tells Babs to come clean because they just took Paul in for questioning. Barbara zips off to the station to make sure Paul sticks to her version of the story.

At the station, Hal, Jack, and Tom tell Paul their story and demand that Paul corroborate their plot. Paul can't believe his ears and says, "You wanna talk to someone? Talk to Barbara." Barbara and Jen arrive in time to hear Jack press Paul to explain how Babs is involved. Hearing only half the story, Barbar gasps, "You told them?" Hal takes this as confirmation and asks her to explain. She says, "I'm familiar with the story...and I cannot believe that my son is telling such vicious scandalous lies about me." Babs and Jen leave. Lily and Dusty arrive. An officer gives Hal the red goblet. Lily zones out and remembers handing Rose her final drink. She returns to reality and demands that Hal arrest Paul.
