Kelly is experimenting with a wegee board when Jeffrey comes in. He thinks it won´t bring her anything else than disappointments, but Kelly tells him it´s something she has to try. Jeffrey asks if she intends to ask it some questions about Mason, but Kelly answers that she will ask some other simpler questions first. Kelly tells Jeffrey to concentrate while she asks if they´re going to have a long and happy life together. Suddenly, the pointer starts moving slowly, and points at the answer "no". Kelly tells Jeffrey that it means they won´t live a happy life together, but Jeffrey can´t understand why she is taking it so seriously. He tells her that they are the only two forces who can decide what´s going to happen to them.
Cain remembers that he had been in a psychiatric ward at the hospital, where he had met the woman. He remembers the woman touching him, and even making love to him, but he isn´t able to see her face in his mind. Perl tells him that by the end of the day they will have unlocked Mrs. Norris´ deepest secrets, and they will know everything for sure including who the woman is. Meanwhile, Elena listens to a message Cruz had left on her answering machine. Cruz tells her to meet him at the meat company at seven.

He tells Eden that it´s very important to stop Eleanor.
Tori goes to see Madame Arcana again, despite Julia´s protests. Julia calls Jeffrey and tells that Tori has gone to see the same psychic again.
Arcana tells Tori that Mason now is at "the other side", but Tori doesn´t believe that he´s dead, and that she and Chip would never see him again. Arcana tells Tori to close her eyes and concentrate on a moment she can remember when she and Mason were together. Arcana tells that she slowly starts to see something, but she isn´t sure what it is. While she continues trying, Julia, Kelly and Jeffrey storm into the room and ask Arcana why she doesn´t just leave Tori alone. Tori then tells them it was her idea, and that she resents being followed. Tori asks them all to leave, but Arcana wants them to stay. She promises them to see Mason Capwell with their own eyes, but this time she will take them to him. She wants them to follow her. Arcana brings them to the beach, where Kelly finds a menīs shirt. Tori looks at it, and tells them the shirt belongs to Mason.

When they turn around to ask Arcana how she did it, they find that she has disappeared.
Cruz and Perl wait for Eleanor at the Acme meat company. Soon Eleanor shows up, and Cruz meets her. He tells her that the storage hasn´t been used for months, and that he doesn´t think Ilse Meier works there anymore. Cruz suggests that if they check the file cabin, they might find something about her. After they´ve entered the room with the file cabins, the door closes behind them. Cruz goes to check the door, and he tells Eleanor that they´re locked in. Eleanor gets real desperate, but Cruz tells her to cool down and not talk so much, to save some air. Eleanor asks him if he had told anyone they were going to "Acme", and Cruz answers he didnīt. Cruz thinks they will find them by tracing their car or something, but Eleanor wonders when.
She is close to trying shoot her way through the steel door with her gun, but Cruz stops her. He tells her not to panic. Meanwhile, Perl is recording everything they say, waiting for a confession from Eleanor. Eleanor tells Cruz that she needs him and his strenght now. She wants Cruz to hold her.
One of Arcanaīs assistants delivers a note to Tori, telling her to meet Arcana at a specified place in an hourīs time.
Jeffrey tells Kelly that he thinks the shirt just means one thing: Arcana is somehow involved in Masonīs kidnapping.
Cruz tells Eleanor that he has made many mistakes in his life. He tells
a fabricated story about when he as a cop had gunned down a man who didnīt stop at his command. The man didnīt have a gun or any other weapon, and Cruz tells Eleanor that what he did, killing a man, was unforgivable. Eleanor then tells him that heīs a good man. She also tells him that her whole life is a lie, and that nothing about her is real, not even her name. She tells she has done some terrible things, and if there really is a hell, sheīs going to burn in it!
Cain recognizes Eleanor from a photo Eden shows to him, but he canīt remember her right name. He can see the woman together with dr. Alex Nikolas at the hospital in his mind, but doesnīt remember what their relationship was.
Cruz asks Eleanor what terrible things she has done, but she tells him that she canīt tell him about it.
Tori runs before a truck after having a meeting with the psychic Arcana at a local church. She had heard Mason talking through Arcana. The truck-driver tells Julia that Tori had looked real scared, like she was running from something. Julia immediately suspects that Arcana is behind it.
Kelly thinks Mason still is held captive, and that only Arcana knows where he is. Julia calls Jeffrey and tells him what has happened to Tori.
Eleanor passes out for a moment, but she soon wakes up. Cruz wants her to open her heart to him, like he did for her. He thinks she needs to get the thing of her chest. Eleanor confesses that she has wished harm to certain people. She tells Cruz she just wanted to be loved. Cruz canīt understand why someone would want to treat her so bad, when she is so smart and beautiful, and Eleanor tells him that her real father cheated her out of a family and a name, and that she will never forgive him for that. Cruz then wonders why her own father wasnīt proud of her, and she answers that he was selfish, and had no passion or loyalty, and that she will make "all of them" suffer for it. Cruz asks is she hasnīt been doing that ever since she came to Santa Barbara, trying to get revenge on the people who hurt her so much, even back in the mountains in Utah. Eleanor wonders if Cruz is out to get her too, but he tells her that he only wants to protect her, and help her, but she tells him itīs too late, and now itīs "they" who need protection. Cruz wonders why Eleanor canīt tell him her real name. The air starts to run out, and Eleanor tells Cruz that she is real scared of dying, She also tells him that she was so close to bring "them all" down, and Cruz asks her who. Eleanor then tells him that is she would tell him, he would hate her, but Cruz tells her he wonīt. Eleanor is just to tell him who her real father is, when Perl bursts in to save them. Cruz tells Perl that his timing is unbelievable. When they come back to the Capwell estate, Perl remembers that he had left the tape recorder at the meat company, and he goes back there along with Carmen to get it. Perl listens to the tape to make sure that he got everything. Unfortunately Elena is hiding in the building, and she hears everything. She realizes that they had set her up.
Tori doesnīt think Madame Arcana wanted to hurt her, and neither does Kelly. Jeffrey suggests that to find Mason, they should start with Arcana, but Julia tells him that she had disappeared after the accident. Jeffrey, Kelly and Julia go searching for Madame Arcana. Arcana is at her hotel room, packing her things, when they show up. They wonder if sheīs going somewhere, and Julia accuses her of almost getting Tori killed, but Arcana tells them she had been in a trance, and when she had woken up, Tori had been gone. Kelly wonders how she could speak with Masonīs voice in the church, and Arcana answers her it might have happened because Mason wanted contact with Tori, but Jeffrey thinks the only thing Arcana wanted was money. Arcana tries to contact Mason again, to prove that she isnīt a phony, but she tells them that Mason doesnīt want to reveal himself when there is skeptics present. Jeffrey then grabs Arcanaīs bag, but Arcana succeeds to run away. They examine her bag, and find a tape recorder with Masonīs voice on it. They take the tape to an export, Myron, who tells them he might be able to pick up everything from the tape that didnīt get erased. Heīs able to separate another voice on the tape, which Kelly identifies as the Indianīs. On the tape he says theyīre going to move someone to another place. Kelly is sure theyīre talking about Mason, but they wonder what "the other place" could be. Julia thinks they should call the police, but Kelly says that if Willy, the Indian, finds out theyīre searching for Mason he will kill him instantly. Kelly also wonders why they hadnīt killed Mason yet, and Jeffrey thinks that itīs probably because Mason hasnīt signed that piece of paper yet.
Julia visits Tori at the hospital, and she tells her that she wants to go with Kelly and Jeffrey looking for Mason. Tori tells her she doesnīt mind her going with them.
Cain finally remembers that Eleanorīs real name is Elena Nikolas.

The strippers admits she knows Arcana, and tells them they had been sisters in the same sisterhood. She also tells them Arcana had been involved with an Indian.

If she doesnīt leave, he will go to the police.
Cruz visits Elena. She tells Cruz that she heard about his meeting with Alex. Cruz tells Elena that he can prove what she did to Eden, Kelly, and probably Mason too, because Cain has come over to his side, and it turned out that his amnesia was just a temporary condition. Elena doesnīt think Cain is going to be believed by any court of law. Cruz warns her that if she goes near Eden or her family again, he will kill her.
Cruz tells Eden that he has a plan how to get rid of Eleanor, but he thinks the winner will have to play a little dirty.

Cruz also tells C.C that meanwhile none is setting a foot outside the house. Perl, who is keeping watch outside Elenaīs apartment, calls Cruz and tells him that a man just left her apartment, but she is still in there. C.C thinks they should go to the police, but Cruz tells him they canīt, because they havenīt got any proof. C.C thinks the only right penalty for Elena is the maximum penalty under the law, the death penalty.
Eden wants Cruz to promise her to be real careful, and he promises her. He doesnīt want her to worry.
Kelly thinks they should go back to the dessert looking for Mason right now, because she is sure Elena is behind his disappearance. Jeffrey tells her that they have to wait until Cruz has got Elena.

Cruz and Perl check out the airport and Cruz finds a door that is open, but is supposed to be locked. He tells Perl heīs sure Elena got out through that door, and that he bets on that she isnīt on the plane. He thinks Perl must have seen somebody else boarding the plane, and not Elena.
Cain finds Elena on the beach. He sneaks up behind her, grabs her, and puts his knife against her throat.

Cain tells him to pray that he gets to Elena before anybody else gets hurt. After Cain has left, Alex calls Cruz and tells him that Cain is out to get Elena, and he wants Cruz to go out and stop him. Eden is more worried about Cain than Elena. Cruz wants Eden to go back to her family while heīs out looking for Cain. Eden promises to go, but she wants to drive there herself. After Cruz has left, Eden canīt find their dog Hope, and she begins looking for it.
Cain shows up at the bungalo, and Elena tells him to get out, because she is expecting a guest. When Cain sees all the candles, the champagne and so on, he tell her that it was exactly like this when she had asked him to commit murder. Elena tells him that she obviously should have picked someone else for the job, but that she had thought even a coward like Cain could do it. Elena doesnīt think Cain is going to kill her, and Cain tells her that he doesnīt intend to, but he wants to make sure she doesnīt hurt anyone else. Then Elena pulls a gun and orders Cain to move. She pushes him down the stairs to the basement. She locks the basement door in a hurry, and runs out. Cruz enters the bungalo with drawn gun, but he doesnīt find Elena or Cain.
