CEDAR OAKS: Dr. Estrada told "Dana" that Ben and Meg's relationship
might remind her of a relationship in her own life. When Ben arrived to see
"Dana," Dr. Estrada answered the door. Tim eavesdropped while Ben
explained to Dr. Estrada his plan to run "Dana's" picture on TV stations all
over the country and on the Internet.
Tim tried to think of a way of stopping Ben's plan. He didn't have to worry
for long, though. Dr. Estrada didn't want Ben to do it because "Dana" was
repressing her memories for some reason, and being reunited with her family
might be too traumatic. It was a slow and delicate process, and they needed
to be careful. She told him that the prognosis for "Dana" was good, and that
Meg's friendship is very important in her recovery.
Later, during their therapy session, Dr. Estrada was called from the room.
"Dana" decided that she needed something more to help her. She picked up
her purse and left the room.

Unfortunately for Annie, Gregory sent the drink back. The bartender took
the drink and, since he hates to see good liquor go to waste, he drank it.

tried to appease him by telling him that Tim didn't sell the stock to her
cheaply. Soon after, Gregory walked in on the bartender coming on to
Annie. He watched Annie fend off the bartender, and cracked up laughing.
He thought it was all an elaborate setup to make him jealous. Annie realized
that the bartender drank Gregory's drink, which proved that the drug works.
