The afternoon turns to night in Adam's Landing. At The Evans Home, Willie sits in the living room, as Beth, Aretha, and Frank sit on the couch, and Bobby tells Willie "Paul's checking things out now. And Rashad's taking care of Terrance at the hospital." Willie is despondent, as she says on the verge of tears "My Son is dead. Why? Somebody tell me." Aretha hugs her Mother, and says "I'm going nowhere Mama. You have support." Floyd walks in, as Willie looks, and Floyd takes off his cowboy hat and opens his arms, as Willie hugs him, and looks around, trying to stay composed and says "It means so much to have all of you here. Clem and Eve are on their way. I told River and Henry to worry about Jazz. I don't know how, but God will lead me through this sad process of knowing my Son, a great doctor, is gone. And I won't see him or hear his voice again until my time comes I hope soon." Aretha cries "Don't talk like that Mama. You are needed! Think about Rashad, and your Grandsons." Frank goes "Willie only has one." Willie tells Frank "No I have two. Both my babies blessed me with one a piece. One though called Doris 'Granny" most his life." Beth tells her Ex-Husband "Terrance and Monica had a fling. Like first loves. Before he realized he was gay." Frank goes "Ahh. Now I got it, and Terrance always acted so straight I had no idea. He saved me, along with you many times. Like a Brother almost." Willie tells Frank "Well, Ruth and I were friends for our lifetimes, so you are right, and the circle will stay that way." Beth gets a text, and walks over and hugs Aretha, and Willie, as she whispers "I will go to the hospital tonight and work Rashad's shift. Your Son left me some tough choices and oh I'll miss him, as she cries for her longtime friend and co-doctor. Beth puts on a brave face, as she goes to meet the newest addition to her family. Beth looks up, and fights tears.
At La Trattoria, Tenny yells for the waitress, as she hits a vape and goes "This new shit is potent." As Faith asks "Mrs. Sullivan, the room is ready. I'll look out for your family. How many." Tenny says "Oh hell. I guess take me, and some heavy alcohol. I am sure my family really will need it tonight." Faith gets ill, and takes her to a private room, and Tenny smiles "And I want a male waiter, and who is your Mother?" Faith snaps "None of your business you old woman!" and walks out as Tenny follows. Tenny walks into the bar area, and sees Julia and goes "Yo bitch! Look what's been drug into Adam's Landing again!" Julia and Faith both turn, as she gasps, and Julia hatefully snarks "Don't die on us you old senile woman!" Tenny goes 'I'm not as damn senile as you think bitch. I thought you were well warned." Faith goes "Ms. Tenny! This is my Mother!" Tenny hits her vape, and warns "If I were you kid, I'd get a test run now to make sure this is your Mama! I know some things. Oh yes I do Julia. You don't know it all after shaming my family on the Berry show! Glad the bitch was sent back to Los Angeles!" Julia warns back "I know you think you do, but..." Tenny slaps her, and Faith breaks in, as Tenny goes "Another warning from that old senile bitch, bitch." and walks away as Faith whispers to her in the bar angrily "I think you need to leave me alone and get the hell out!" Julia motions for the bartender, and snaps "Tough shit, because I am drunk and going nowhere until I see what the old lady has planned or is a part of. I feel kinda tingly..." Faith returns to working, and turns and goes "I'm watching you Mom." In the private room, Ava arrives, and Tenny tells her "I am so sorry about what happened with Wade's wife. What a real nasty bitch!" Ava agrees, as Tenny tells her "Screw this place, I'd rather be at my house." Ava goes "I think it'll be so nice for a change." Tenny goes with doubt "Whatever you say as long as." Ava asks her "As long as what Tenny?" Tenny says "I'm going to pretend now sweetie. I'll protect your innocence!" and walks away, as Ava walks around and takes a seat, as Tenny awaits the family.
At City Hospital, Terrance's body is ready for autopsy, as Rashad stands inside, with Gwen next to him, as he cries "Uncle Terrance was more than that Gwen, he was my real Dad basically. My hero. He was the best role model ever. I didn't care that he was gay. Why?" Gwen holds him silently, as Sassy walks over, and hugs him as well and goes "He is going to really be missed." Ginny walks inside and also offers condolences to Rashad as they all offer their love and support, with Sassy and Ginny, along with Gwen and Rashad, cry. At the Nurse's Station, Connor tells Kyle "I am not happy about how I am stuck working at night! Damn Terrance! He really hates me, and well I kinda feel..." Kyle snaps, and grabs him, throwing him across the hall and warns "One more word about my mentor and friend and I'll whoop your ass so damn bad you'll be down in the E.R. calling disability!" Connor goes "Oh no! What happened?" Kyle goes "He hated you, so you'll learn when its time. Now go back to work, and Dr. B is coming in tonight so be ready!" Connor says "I love Dr. Beth!" Kyle quips "She will be in a mood trust me." Connor heads off and says "Thanks for the heads up like it matters." as Kyle is silent and reflects on his friend and co-worker and says "I'm going to miss you Dr. Evans, You and Dr. B are the best. The backbone. My brother in medicine, I'll really miss you but I'll earn my way to your level hopefully." Looking at his picture on the desk, along with City Hospital's doctors.

The door opens, and Country walks in to Gracie giving him a hug and going "Uncle Country!" Country tells them "Who does that baby belong to?" Gracie goes "My Son, Davey Jackson." Country asks "Jackson?" Gracie and Brock nod, and says "I'm going to look after my new buddy." Country goes "Let me hold that little baby boy and he can meet his Uncle Country." Gracie hands him to him, as Country says "I'm your Uncle." Upstairs, Xavier and Leigh talk, as Leigh asks "So Gracie won't say who the Father is will she? I hope nothing happened. She's moved around a few times." Xavier tells his Wife "I'll find out. Give me time my love. I'll find out and we'll go from there." Leigh is quiet, as she gets a text from Sully, and says "Sully and Cain are meeting us at La Trattoria. Tenny's there now and Ava. Jack wasn't up to it." Xavier sighs "Poor Jack. I wish he would have come to the dinner." Xavier and Leigh head downstairs, as he asks everyone "Ready?" Gracie and Brock nod, as Country winks at his best friend and says "I'm going home. Long trip Grandpa. Congratulations." Xavier thanks him, as they all head out, and Country writes a text to his Son, and no response.
Meanwhile at Jazz, Wade sits at the bar, as he winds down and River asks his longtime friend "So things ain't good for you and Bridget?" Wade nods, and his motions for another drink, and says "Another beer friend." River gives him a bottle as he says "I have to make a choice. My family legacy now that I've got my company merged into it as of today." River goes "Well Wade, sounds tough. I don't know what to tell you." At Wade and Bridget's Penthouse, Bridget sits back and watches TV, and hangs up the phone and goes "I'm going to prove myself to Wade! I'm not going to be the scapegoat, and I sure as hell will get my part in his beloved HaleCorp!", as she pours a drink. At The Sunset Club, Jared drinks with Clint and Thorpe, as he warns "My Wife is in town. Things are going to get wild and I'm not interested in a battle with Xavier and his family. And don't consider Julia in our plans?" Clint goes excitedly "Well guys, no need to make a move then. I know that will distract their asses!" Jared, in a drunken tone yells "This involves my kids. And my Son went back with his Mommy. Damnit he is my Son!" Clint tells him "Enjoy your freedom buddy boy. I love that mine are grown!" Thorpe agrees as they all drink, and Thorpe gets a text from Julia and quickly leaves.
At The Evans Home, Frank sits in the living room, next to Aretha, as Bobby sends his Son a text, and says to Willie "He's almost here." Willie says to them with sadness "I am just stunned this would ever happen. What caused him to do this? Does someone know?" She gets angry, and cries, and backs away from her Daughter, as Aretha reaches out to comfort and console her, and yells "Now can someone tell me why Terrance left me? What did I do wrong?" Everyone in the room reaches out, as Floyd sits outside and looks in and says to himself "You are going to be missed Doctor Terrance Evans. You were respected more than you'd ever know." At City Hospital, Rashad, Gwen, Ginny, and Sassy stand in Terrance's former office, as each of them look inside and Rashad cries for his Uncle, saying "It's not going to be the same without him here."

Faith rushes in and goes "Ok you need to leave." Julia slaps her Daughter and goes "Damn you telling me what to do!" Faith asks "So what is Ms. Sullivan talking about?" Julia quickly says "Nothing to worry about." Faith goes "Oh really Mother?" Do you see who's in the doorway?" Julia turns to see Xavier, as he coldly goes "It's time for your ass to leave before I get mad. I mean very damn mad. So mad I'll have to renovate this part of the place." Faith goes "So you are still keeping her away from us. Mom was right for once about you." Tenny walks in, along with Beth, as Tenny yells "No dear! If only you knew what your Mama's keeping from you." Xavier asks his Grandmother, as Beth glares at Julia, as Faith shakes her head with disbelief and uncertainty, "Mamaw, what do you know?

Wade and Bridget's Penthouse, Connor walks in, and says "I'm in no mood to discuss today." Bridget tells her Son "I understand fully. I think I want to move home. It sucks here." Connor sighs "But I have gotten on well with Dr. Jackson, but I do think Ava has little use for me or Jack since everything with Dr. Rivera." Bridget watches the TV, and goes "Another reason to go home. Too bad your Brother's considering to join ranks with your Dad."

At The Sunset Club, Jared and Clint prepare to leave, as Wade walks inside and checks into a room and notices his Brother and Clint and walks over, and says "Oh after today I'd love to kick your asses."
