Part 1 Summary: Nora called Clint to let him know about the verdict, but he had his hands tied with Jared, who'd been attacked at the BE offices. Bo and Nora arrived at the courthouse and ran into David, who gloated that Matthew was going to win this case. Inside, Téa told Elijah to pack his bags. The judge called everyone to order and allowed the Buchanans' attorney to make a final argument. Elijah went on to explain that Shaun had suffered at the hand of his brother, Greg, who is clearly not fit to perform surgery. David started to have second thoughts about what his brother was planning to do. Téa pointed out to the judge that the hospital is not taking any legal action against Dr. Evans. Nevertheless, the judge handed down her decision in favor of Matthew. Nora was speechless, while Matthew and David high-fived.
Gigi didn't appear thrilled by Rex's sudden proposal and questioned his motives. When he said they no longer talk about the future, she realized that he'd just overheard her conversation with Schuyler. He admitted that he was jealous of her telling Schuyler things that she can't tell Rex and hoped that being married would change that. Gigi said she loves Rex but declined his proposal, explaining that she doesn't need a ring to survive Stacy and her baby.
Kim tried to get Stacy to drink a milkshake at Rodi's but she pushed it away, griping about the whole pregnancy thing. Kim assured her that it's going to be worth it when she wins Rex's heart. Stacy, however, was starting to realize how strong Gigi and Rex's love really is and wasn't sure if this was all worth it. As they walked home from Rodi's, Stacy was pretty much ready to leave Llanview when she stumbled upon Rex and Gigi in what appeared to be a disagreement. They huddled in the trees as Rex and Gigi kissed and made up, but Stacy could see how upset Rex was and suddenly had a renewed sense of determination.
Rachel went to visit Shaun and found a guilt-ridden Greg sobbing over his brother. He explained that he blames himself for what happened and feels guilty about trying to win Rachel away from Shaun. In an attempt to make themselves both feel better, they sat by Shaun while listening to the CD that Rachel brought. She urged Greg to go see his parents and Destiny, and get some rest. But as he walked out, he imagined his brother was awake and staring at his disapprovingly.
John asked Jessica a few questions in Brody's hospital room about the beating, while Kyle checked out Jared. Kyle and Fish ran into each other in the hospital halls and Kyle happily reported that he'd just gotten back into medical school. Fish promptly announced that he'd just come out to his parents. Kyle listened as Fish talked of their disappointment and asked what finally made him decide to come out. "A woman," Oliver said, referring to Stacy. Meanwhile, Layla thanked Cristian for being such a good friend through everything that's happened over the last year.
John went to question Jared about what happened at BE but his description was pretty spotty. Jared couldn't even look John in the eye as he tried to recall details of his attacker. Natalie angrily paced back and forth as she watched her ex-boyfriend grill her husband. When Jared later tried to calm her down, she told him that he shouldn't have driven himself to the hospital on his own, just as John hinted to Fish that he's got his doubts about someone.
As the courtroom let out, Elijah warned Téa that he plans to file a stay. Nora, meanwhile, got down on her knees and begged Matthew not to undergo the surgery. Matthew looked his mother in the eye and told her to be brave, that he would have the surgery and she'd be fine. Once he was gone, Nora crumpled into a heap on the floor with Bo holding her for support, while Clint called and left a voicemail.
I love how Nora turned away from Bo to say I love you to Clint. They are meant to be

-Nora and Bo belong together. so the whole marriage to Clint isn't gonna last much longer.
- David Vickers is annoying.
-Kim and Stacy are soooo immature.
-Even though i hate what Stacy is doing, I think it is kinda cute that they are calling Fish's baby "The Guppy"
