Alison and Jamal are waiting in the park for Jack. Jamal is sure that he'll show up because he can't resist a scam. They sit on a bench and hold hands. They put their heads together and are about to kiss, but Jamal pulls away. They go to look for Jack. They find him and give him instructions on the rest of the night. Jack leaves. Jamal and Alison discuss whether Amanda will accept "Chandler" as Alison's boyfriend. They start to leave the park and run into Amanda. They tell her that they were meeting because Jamal was paying Alison some money he owed her. They stage a mock fight. Alison leaves with Amanda, asking her to buy her a new dress for their evening with Chandler.

Ian and Eve sneak into the morgue in search of Mr. Green's body. They hope that it hasn't disappeared like Bernard Heller's. They are relieved to find him. Ian is going to test tissue samples to see how Mr. Green died. Eve leaves Ian alone with Mr. Green's body. She goes to the file room to find Bernard Heller's file. After breaking into the file cabinet and finding Heller's file, she hears something. She calls out "hello, hello" but there is no answer. In the dark room, while reading the file by flashlight, Eve hears footsteps approaching. She goes back to where Ian was, but he is nowhere to be found. She is attacked by someone in a surgical mask, cap and gown. She is thrown to the floor. Ian comes in. He is also knocked to the floor. The attacker flees. Ian and Eve are relieved to find that each other is ok. Eve tells Ian that she was worried when she came back and he was gone. They touch each other's face tenderly. Ian and Eve go to Kevin's office. Eve is surprised to find that Kevin isn't there. Ian goes to leave. Eve tells him that she doesn't want him to leave her.

At the place where everyone goes to eat pizza outdoors now in upstate NY in late October, Lucy sits down with Kevin and tries to make small talk about how he and Livvie both like anchovies on their pizzas. When Lucy finds out that he hasn't told Eve about Livvie yet, she warns Kevin that someone else might tell her. Kevin thinks that Lucy means her, but she says she means Rachel or Estelle. Kevin reminds her that they have kept that secret for 18 years. Lucy encourages Kevin to tell Livvie the truth. Livvie arrives just in time for Lucy to invite her to join them. Livvie says she's meeting Chris there. Alone, Lucy reminds Kevin that he taught her about the truth. She also reminds him that Eve married him for better or for worse. Livvie is *his daughter*. Kevin protests. Livvie is Grace's daughter who was raised by Rachel. A guy tries to hit on Livvie. When she tries to walk away, the guy grabs her arm. Kevin comes over and says he has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Chris arrives. He senses the tension and asks Livvie if she wants to go somewhere else. Kevin tells Lucy that if he decides to pursue a relationship with Livvie, it will be his decision, not hers. She thinks he'll be a wonderful parent. Kevin says it takes more than DNA to be a parent. Livvie tells Chris she wants to stay and she actually defends Kevin. She tells Chris that Kevin never actually lied to her and he was always there for her when she needed him. Chris is not happy with the way Livvie feels. He tells her that if her gut feeling is to not trust Kevin, then she shouldn't trust him. Livvie doesn't understand why Chris doesn't want her to make up with Kevin. Chris says he doesn't want to tell her what to do. Lucy and Kevin talk about being friends. As they are leaving, Jack comes along and bumps into Lucy. She says "excuse me" but complains to Kevin that she wasn't the one who should apologize. Jack goes to sit by Livvie and Chris. As he listens to Chris tell Livvie how much he cares about her, Jack rolls his eyes. When Chris tells her about Amanda's Halloween party, Livvie insists that Chris bring her. Later, on a park bench, Chris is with his lawyer, Leopold. He signs his divorce papers. Leopold asks what his plans are now. Chris answers "it's payback time."

Alison and Amanda wait at a table in the Port Charles Grille. Alison assures her grandmother that Chandler will show up. She goes into the adjacent room where Jamal surprises her. She tells him Jack is really late.
