Just then Peter arrives. Phillips shows him the status of his investment account. Peter licks his chops. He says that he would need a lot more money to build his Oakhaven Estates house. He decided to let the investment ride to earn more interest. Phillips asks a favor. Peter says that he can not do anything for him officially. Phillips cuts him off and says that as someone with great interest in the newspaper, he would be appreciative if Peter goes easy on McGinnis. Dalton stands firm and says that he only accepted Phillip's election help if there were no strings attached. Looking at the status of his account, Peter begins to back down and says that he will think about it. Phillips starts to sweat a little as his strategy may backfire. Peter might let McGinnis off the hook. Hester calls worried looking for Bebe. Sara lets her know that she is there. Afterward, Sara tells Bebe that she should have gone straight home because Hester said that there is a party invitation there for her after all. Bebe brightens up.

Marceau, they don't have knowledge enough to prosecute. Peter insists. Then he calls Phillips and says that he will prosecute McGinnis to the full extent. Phillips is happy that his strategy worked.
