Andy tells John and Kim that he is leaving Oakdale...and this time, it's a sure thing. Meanwhile, Emily confides in Carly that she's really messed up her chances with Andy this time and considers selling the paper, despite all the trouble she went through to buy it back from Craig all those years ago. Meg makes plans for Emma to move in with her until Iva can find a good home for Emma in Iva's neighborhood. After much gnashing of teeth, Meg finally gets her mother to stay with her in a room that she recently rented at the Lakeview...but only under one condition. She has to talk things over with Dusty. While Gwen continues searching for her missing designs, Roxie gets rave reviews from Barbara for her "unimaginabally talented work". Gwen finally gives up and goes home to find Will cooking a romantic dinner for the two of them. However, when the tea kettle starts to hiss...Will flashes back to hearing Elaine screaming and two cars slamming together.
