Cheryl got upset with Scott. He attempted to reason with her.
Rachel yelled at Mac for testifying to what he had heard since it doesn't help Brittany.
Reginald said he could prove Brittany had tried to murder his son. Sensation. The judge demanded order. Reginald was told to cut out all embellishments. He described what he had seen the morning of the shooting and the gun in question. He said Peter had doted on Brittany so much that he hadn't seen how greedy and determined she was. He kept on and on determinedly as Zack objected and the judge demanded order. Reginald was told to cut out the embellishments. Zack jumped up to cross examine.
Rachel yelled at Mac for siding with Reginald. Mac maintained that he was merely telling the truth. She said she was coming with him. (She intends to Look at him.)
Michael told Victoria she had to testify truthfully. She's afraid of Reginald. Michael told her he loved her and sent her back to Bay City. Nicole told him he was a good father. The doctor appeared and said Donna was not responding to the treatment. There's nothing more they can do. Bad News. Michael is forbidden to see her. Donna becomes agitated and uncontrollable after his visits. Michael became upset and insisted on trying to see her. He was prevented.
Cheryl agreed to help Scott find out the truth. MJ disapproved. Scott and Cheryl plotted to find the driver of the car in which Vince said he had hitched a ride. Enter Victoria. Scott rushed to her side and interrogated her. She was forced to admit she hadn't seen Vince. She accused him of being a traitor. He said the truth was more important than family loyalty. She asked him to be her friend. Cheryl dashed up. Scott said they should apologize to each other.
Reginald is a stupid witness. Zack is a stupid lawyer. The judge got fed up and called a recess. He invited Zack and Peggy into his chambers.
Jamie and Nicole attempted to restrain Michael. He lost his head and became rather hysterical. He refused to leave. Nicole told him Donna didn't know he was there and asked him to come home. He swore to make Reginald and Gomez pay and rushed out. Nicole and Jamie pursued him.
Victoria went to the courthouse to see if she could get out of testifying. MJ asked Scott not to investigate on his own. He said he had to. Cheryl is worried about having to admit in court that she and Scott are seeing each other because their families hate each other. [I thought Vince and Mary and all the little McKinnons knew already, what with the ring and all. Are we afraid of Reginald?]
Julie has done something guaranteed to make Zack mad at her.
Zack told Brittany to settle down. Victoria appeared and said she didn't want to testify, OK? Zack told her it was not OK. Peter told her daddy wouldn't like it. Britney yelled at Mac for testifying against her. [If she doesn't want her friends to testify against her she should be more careful about who witnesses her threats, etc.] She said she should have killed Peter while she had the chance. Zack sat her down. Reginald took Victoria aside and told her Michael had advised her to tell the truth in order to turn her against her family. [Impressive plot.]
Scott told Cheryl most of what they had done had nothing to do with Brittany's case.
Michael thrashed around in the trash in back of the Pig Whistle for a bit. His wallet fell out of his pocket. He went inside. Someone found the wallet. Michael prepared to drink himself into oblivion. He offered to buy a round for everyone present. The bartender asked for money. Michael couldn't find his wallet. He said he must have been robbed. The Pig Whistle patrons were incredulous. A fight broke out. Jamie and Nicole arrived and threw themselves into the fray. Nicole dragged Michael out. Although cornered, they escaped.
Scott and Cheryl decided to be friends again. He asked if they were still in love.
Julie was not allowed in while court was in session.
Mac made Peter a very good character witness. Peggy had Mac describe Brittany's possible threats at the skeet shoot. She was competitive. Zack decided against cross examining today.
Michael was deposited in his bedroom. Nicole stayed to comfort him. He brooded. Life is no good without Donna. Nicole was very comforting. He wept.
Scott and Cheryl went to find the ring.He had flung it across the room in a fit of temper.
Mac and Rachel argued.
Brittany despaired.
