Plot Overview

On the witness stand, Colton questions Linda Metcalf as to what she overheard Rachel say. Linda tells the court she heard Rachel say it would be better if Mitch were dead. Jerry tells Margo he is nervous about the trial and some other things. Joey meets with Blaine to talk about a job and then meets Jordan Scott. Brian questions Linda and tries to show that Rachel was distraught over her husband's condition. Linda also says that she didn't think a murder would take place from overhearing what Rachel said. Then Colton rests his case and court is recessed for 10 minutes. Brian tells Rachel he is changing their strategy and they have to talk. Russ tells Olivia she hasn't heard from Tracy today yet. Then Olivia leaves when Liz enters and asks Russ to see if there are any openings in the nursing staff because maybe Marianne would stay in town if there is. Then Liz tells Russ she is concerned about Pat and that Philip is the cause of her drinking. Jordan discusses the possibility of Joey being a bouncer at the Arena. When Jordan leaves, Joey tells Blaine he wants to be rich. Blaine advises Joey to think twice before taking a job with Jordan. Joey tells Blaine he has something to prove to people that he can make it on his own and so Blaine agrees to talk to Jordan for him. Brian tells Mac, Rachel, and Jerry that he thinks the best thing to do is to show how committed Rachel is to Mac. Then he says he wants to put Rachel on the stand next, followed by Mac. Larry comes home and tells Clarice about a sports car he wants to buy. Then he remembers his talk with Petroni about how he will be risking everything to go undercover. Liz tells Marianne it would be the best thing for her mother if she stayed in town. Marianne tells Liz if she stays in town it won't be because of Pat and Philip. Brian calls Rachel to the stand as Colton tells his assistant that Brian won't win this case. When Joey talks to Clarice and Larry about getting a job at the Arena, Clarice notices that Larry has changed his mind about the place and Jordan. On the witness stand, Rachel tells the court how she believed that Janice was poisoning Mac but that no one believed her including Brian and Scott Bradley. Then Rachel tells the jury that she led Mitch on in order to find out where Janice had Mac. That is why she went sailing with Mitch but she was afraid of him. Rachel also tells the jury the entire situation with Janice stabbing Mitch and that she thought she would kill them also. Rachel adds that it is her fault Mac married Janice to begin with. Brian gets Rachel to tell the court all about how Mitch pursued her even after she remarried Mac. Rachel tells the jury all the events that led up to her accidentally shooting Mitch. Then the judge takes a 15-minute break. Clarice tells Blaine about Larry coming home and talking about a sports car that he wants. Clarice also tells Blaine that Larry seems to be changing his mind about Jordan Scott so there may be hope yet that they can all have dinner together some night. Blaine is very happy about the news. Blaine tells Jordan the news that Larry seems to be coming around and asks him if they could have Larry and Clarice over for dinner some night. Colton cross-examines Rachel who tells the court she never meant to shoot Mitch. Brian tells Mac & Rachel that things are going well. Rachel tells them she would have liked things to be tougher for her on the stand to atone for killing Mitch. Mitch listens to a song "Someone to Watch Over Me" on the radio and then remembers hearing the same song while in the boxcar. Then he stops the song.
