During another lame twist to the kidnapping story, the police accuse Scott
of masterminding his daughter's kidnapping.  Serena is with Lucy and
Kevin in the outside office, and upset about her dad being arrested.   Lucy
goes in to talk to Scott and tries to calm him down.  Kevin tells Serena the
tail of Lucy, Felicia, Kevin, and Mac's trip to France - she is successfully
distracted and gets the moral of the story - people make mistakes and
mistakes can be fixed.  The distraction doesn't last and she starts to cry.
Back in interrogation, Lucy wants to call Karen and let her know what's
happening, she leaves.

The police guy comes back in and asks Scott when he was last in the Cayman
Islands.  The money was put into an account there in Scott's name - to cover
his gambling bets.  The cop wants Scott to confess for a lighter sentence
- Scott
tells him the whole story is ridiculous.

Rex chortles with glee to Danielle about Scott's arrest.  Danielle
realizes that
Rex was behind the arrest.  He tells her about Scott's gambling and of a
bookmaker who will testify to that.  Rex tells her the whole story is
brilliant.

(The Cayman connection was explained by the cop and Rex with the camera
going back and forth between the two scenes. )

The interns (minus Karen) wonder about Matt's board hearing and Julie's
absence.  Chris comes up and calls Eve Honey and asks her to pick up some
coffee on her way home.  The others exchange looks, Eve tells them it's
temporary and she's sleeping on the couch.  Chris just smirks.

Matt is outside the hearing, chatting with Karen.  He tells her that he doesn't
dwell on "what ifs".  He had a great life before the accident and has a great
life now.  She's impressed by his positivity.  She gets paged and leaves.
Ellen comes out and waits with Matt.  He tells her that she doesn't have to
but she wants to.

Julie threatens Cooper, he's not scared, since he's dead.  Julie deduces
that he is the one who was setting up the interns.  She tells him that if he
lets her go, she won't tell anyone.  Naturally, he doesn't buy it.  He tells
her he started revenge with Karen, she was the least qualified because she
was an ex-stripper (apparently, he doesn't know about her drug addiction
and stealing drugs from the hospital since those would be a better reason).
She tells him that people will look for her when she doesn't show up for
work tomorrow - he says he'll take care of that while he forces a gag into
her screaming mouth.  Cooper calls the hospital saying Julie had to fly out
of town for a sick friend and wouldn't be in.
