  Back in Adam's Landing,Burt's at his office at Jackson Inc,as Bree arrives and Burt tells her"I hear you're going to work here now?"Bree sighs"Looks like it.I never wanted to work here,but Xavier has helped me out with searching for my Father and the only thing he can expect is that I won't kiss his ass.He reminds me a lot of my Grandfather and I never liked how he did business."Burt asks"Then why are you working here?"Bree looks at Burt and tells him"I am a Jackson.And I will defend my family name."Burt looks at Bree and tells her"You are fiery.It's great to see you've accepted your family traditions."Bree quickly tells Burt"I don't pride myself for that streak that runs in my family."Burt looks at Bree and tells her"I think you should.It can be beneficial in this business."Ava meanwhile walks into the office,with Country and Ava looks at her niece and tells her"Here's your father."Bree looks at Country and walks over and punches him in the face and yells"All these years I never even knew.And you were around.You worked for my family."Country looks at Bree and tells her"Your Mama told me to stay silent.She wanted someone else to be your Father."Ava looks at Country and says to him"This lady grew up without never knowing her Father.You are a weak man Country.If it hadn't been for your error in that storm shelter,I'd never had to go to Sugar Creek to finish what should have been finished when the bitch aborted my nephew!"Burt tells Country"Xavier's in Blue Ridge right now and when he finds out about this.I don't think he will be pleased."Country yells at all of them"He knew I was Bree's Daddy.X and I have been best friends since 1st grade.I told him about it and he swore to secrecy."Bree fumes with anger and asks"He knew?"Country looks at his daughter and says"He did and I left that mistake in the past!And that's where it will stay as far as I am concerned."Bree looks at Burt and Country and walks over to her Father and angrily tells him"You pride yourself on being the good guy and helping my family.You failed!"Bree tells Burt"Tell Xavier that I decline the offer!"Bree storms out and Country attempts to go after Bree,but Ava tells him"I think it's too late now.Country leaves Jackson Inc and tells Ava"I hope you are pleased that you've just ruined your niece's life and mine."Ava coldly quips to Country"Ever heard of wearing a condom?"Country leaves and Ava looks at Burt and tells him"Bree will come to her senses and work here.Give her some time.Xavier was troubled back then with Desi leaving town and all,he wasn't himself."Bree walks back in the office and tells Burt and Ava"I heard what you all were talking about.That was around the time Desi fled town?"Burt warns Bree"Desi isn't a name that he needs to hear right now."Ava agrees and tells her niece"I will protect you Bree.It's nobody's loss but Country's."Bree's angry and looks at Ava and with tears in her eyes tells her Aunt"I have nobody now but my sister."Ava looks at her niece and tells her"I don't have my son."They hug and hold each other tightly as Ava tells Bree gently"Aunt Ava's here."Bree holds onto Ava as she cries as Burt walks quietly out of the room.
