Ringer viewers didn't have to wait long for Bridget's secret to come tumbling out.

After Gemma (Tara Summers) discovered that Henry (Kristopher Polaha) had actually been having an affair with Siobhan (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Bridget did the only thing she could think of to keep herself safe: Play the twin card.

Exclusive: Ringer to have a Buffy reunion!

"It was a bold move on Bridget's part," creator Eric Charmelo says, noting that it was more exciting that Bridget, who's been harboring this secret for around two weeks now, was the one to out herself. "It was partial desperation, partial plea to try to find an ally in this crazy world."

In revealing her secret to Gemma, Bridget will now have to do damage control in Tuesday's episode (9/8c on The CW), when she discovers whether Gemma will be an ally or an adversary, Charmelo says. "Just because the secret's out to one person, doesn't mean it's out to the collective. So the drive in the episode is to try and contain the oil spill, if you will."

Like Bridget's need to finally tell the truth, the producers felt it was high time to show their hand. "We needed to have some drama that she could share with someone and up the stakes for Bridget," executive producer Pam Veasey says. "She can't live this life and make this choice and everything just lives smooth. People would go, 'Right.' You have to have some jeopardy for her."

Ringer's Sarah Michelle Gellar: I'm not trying to re-create or top Buffy

Siobhan's secret — that she's still alive — won't come out as quickly, though she and Bridget will cross paths "sooner than later," Veasey adds.

For now, Siobhan is working out her revenge from Paris, though we may see her closer to home soon. "She'll realize she needs to move around in order for things to work out the way she wants them to," Charmelo says. "Being sedentary is not in the cards for her."

"You will see more of Siobhan," Veasey adds. "She's always been the one driven by revenge, so keep that in mind, and Bridget, by redemption. Revenge has to rear its beautiful head at some point in grander ways. She's not always just our punctuation in every episode."

A piece of the puzzle as to why Siobhan is hellbent on revenge was revealed in the pilot through a photo of a young boy named Sean. But we won't learn the back story as to why that would cause Siobhan to fake her death until the second half of the season, which has yet to be picked up by The CW. The producers are hopeful though. "It's certainly part of the sisters' history and what drove a gigantic wedge between them," Charmelo says.

One person who won't discover he's sharing his bed with his wife's twin sister is Andrew (Ioan Gruffudd). "It's intentional," Charmelo says of not having the pair show physical affection toward one another.  "We're going to build up their relationship."

A Whole New Kind of Bitch

It's ultimatums, double crosses, NA meetings, and drug-induced torture on "Ringer" this week!  Following Bridget-As-Siobhan's revelation to Gemma last week that she is in fact Bridget and did not sleep with her husband, Gemma stormed out of the Hamptons not believing BAS's story. Later looking at some old video from a party Gemma notices two things: a secret glance between Siobhan and Henry and a burn on Siobhan's arm. After frantically trying to get in touch with her Gemma finds BAS and they talk. She looks at her arm and sees that Bridget does not have the burn and is telling the truth. She is flabbergasted by the news and also that her friend is dead. (Or at least presumed as such.) Bridget begs Gemma not to tell but Gemma points out that she doesn't have to do anything Bridget wants her to since she is, in fact, a complete stranger to her.  Later, she gives Bridget an ultimatum. She wants to divorce Henry but she wants to make sure he doesn't get a dime of her money or custody of the kids. Henry and Gemma have an infidelity clause in their pre-nup. She wants Bridget to meet Henry and sleep with him, walk in on them and thereby have irrefutable proof of his infidelity.  Bridget is torn. She goes to an NA meeting in Brooklyn and meets a fellow addict in recovery named Charlie. When she can't get in touch with Malcolm-- who is still being tortured by being shot up with drugs by Macawi in the strip club-- she reaches out to Charlie. Without explaining the details she explains she is being asked to do something she knows is wrong that will ruin several families, make it impossible to live with herself, and likely cause a relapse.  She goes to Gemma-- who had come by the apartment with "news," which turned out that she was no longer overseeing Henry and Siobhan's loft renovation-- and tells her she can't do it. Gemma says she has no choice. If Bridget doesn't sleep with Henry she will tell Andrew and Agent Machado who she really is. Bridget must sleep with Henry by midnight. Bridget goes to Henry-- who has gotten more bad news from publishers about his book-- and tells him Gemma knows about them and about the trap she wanted to set for the two of them and tells him to go home and fall in love with his wife again and protect his family. Henry says he can't do this, he loves Siobhan. She tells him to take care of it.  All the while this is happening Andrew's bratty daughter Juliet is having a meltdown. When BAS and Andrew returned from the Hamptons the word "wh**e" has been scrawled across Siobhan's big photo and Juliet has had a house-trashing party with her equally spoiled friends. Andrew tries to confront her but she resists. BAS says she wants to help and ransacks Juliet's room looking for drugs. Instead she finds a matchbook from a bar. Andrew says he'll handle it.  When Juliet goes on another rampage and ruins Siobhan's closet, including her wedding dress, she finds her NA pamphlet. She follows BAS to the meeting and sees her talking to Charlie. At dinner he reveals this but thinks it's because Siobhan wants to put her in rehab and BAS claims she was doing "research" into addiction. Later, Andrew "handles" it by telling Juliet he is sending her to-- the horror-- public school away from her bad influence friends. Juliet freaks and tells him this is all Siobhan's fault, it's not about drugs. She calls Siobhan a cheating, manipulative bitch who sleeps with married men. Later she freaks and sneaks out. Andrew tells BAS that Juliet told her she knows about the cheating... that they did together when he was still married to Juliet's mom. That's what she meant and is upset about. They track her down at the bar from the matchbook. BAS apologizes for the cheating and wrecking Juliet's home. She says if Juliet needs to hate her she understands but to stop hurting herself and her father. Later, they clean off Siobhan's picture together.  But first Bridget and Gemma meet and she says she couldn't do it. Gemma says she will expose her. Bridget begs her not to and mentions how fragile Andrew and Juliet are. Gemma can't believe that she's using Juliet as a crutch for her self-serving needs. Bridget gives an unconvincing speech about what a crappy person Siobhan was and how she's trying to fix things and that maybe one of those things can be this friendship, maybe she can be a better friend than Siobhan was. Apparently, this is enough for Gemma who exhales and says it's crazy but maybe she'll give it a try.  Later, however, Henry, in a drunken rage calls Gemma and says Siobhan told him everything about her trap and she will not get what she wants-- the kids, her money-- etc. Gemma can't believe Bridget ratted her out. She calls Andrew in a panic asking him to meet her and that it's an emergency. At this point they're at the club with Juliet so BAS takes Juliet home and Andrew goes to Henry and Gemma's. He is met at the door by a furtive Henry who says everything is fine, Gemma's not home and maybe she called Andrew from the office. Andrew says he'd like to come in and wait but Henry begs off saying he has some work to take care of. He shuts the door and we see that there was a struggle, there is a broken lamp on the floor, and blood on the wall. Apparently, he took care of it.

P recaps... The Poor Kids Do It Everyday

Bridget is wondering what happened to Gemma while asking something of Charlie. Juliet is starting fresh on a new school but her teacher, Mr. Carpenter (guest star Jason Dohring), will soon have to help her out. Agent Machado is looking into Malcolm's disappearance.

The Poor Kids Do It Everyday

Things took an interesting twist tonight.  So based on last week's events we all figured Gemma was dead, right? But it turns out that she might just be missing. Although judging by the blood we watch Henry clean off the wall's in tonight's open, if she's not dead she's in some serious pain.  We pick up where we left off. Bridget-As-Siobhan puts Juliet to sleep after her rough night out. Andrew returns and explains that Gemma called him urgently. He wonders if Siobhan knows why. She professes ignorance and he tells her to give Gemma a call the next day to make sure she's okay.  We cut to Henry cleanning up the crime scene. He later dumps the evidence in a dumpster behind a restaurant far from his home. He then drops her car off in long-term airport parking.  The next day BAS leaves messages for Gemma reiterating that she hopes to be the friend her sister couldn't. She doesn't reach her. Later, Gemma's assistant drops off the key to the loft and asks if Siobhan has heard from her and she, of course, says she hasn't.  Juliet heads off to her first day at public school, after being convinced to put on a more chaste outfit and handing off the last of her drug stash to BAS.  BAS tries to flush the stash but can't bring herself to do it. She calls Charlie to ask for a quick sponsorship meet-up.  At school Juliet is bullied by a tough girl, fights back and gets sent to the principal for her troubles. The principal pulls out her lengthy rap sheet from private school and automatically assumes she's at fault. When Andrew shows up, he too believes she's at fault. He doesn't even give her a chance to explain. She is heartbroken by this. Her new teacher Mr. Carpenter, however, knows the bully Tessa well and after hearing Juliet's sob story decides she deserves a fresh start and stands up for her in front of the principal and her dad.  BAS goes to the Butlers and Henry pulls her in. He accuses her of doing something to Gemma. He explains about the crime scene he cleaned up. BAS is freaked out by this. She says she didn't do anything and by his cleaning up the crime scene it just makes him look like the guilty party. He tells her that in spite of everything she's done to him in the past few weeks, he was protecting her because she was the one that casually mentioned offing their spouses. We cut to "8 months ago" and a tryst between the two and her making the suggestion and then, after clearly being serious, trying to laugh it off and calling him gullible. He grabs her and yells "say something to me! Where is she?" He backs off and she leaves saying she doesn't know him and she never did.  Meanwhile, Agent Machado gets the news that Malcolm is missing Wyoming. They find his car, signs of a struggle, and then notice a pile of cigarette butts nearby. They realize someone watched and waited send the butts off for DNA testing.  At Macawi's strip club they have successfully hooked Malcolm on drugs. Now they are withholding him and watching him go through withdrawal. They cook up a little heroin in a spoon in front of him and taunt him and tell him they will give him a fix if he talks. He refuses. As they walk away he finally cracks and says he'll tell them everything they want to know.  BAS heads home and pulls out Juliet's stash. Just then she is grabbed from behind. It's Henry. He let himself in with the key she gave him. He leaves it. He says he came back just to make clear that he did nothing to Gemma. He could never hurt the mother of his children and he needs Siobhan to say that she knows that. She says he needs to call the police. He says he can't, he couldn't look more guilty. And then adds he could since he called his lawyer yesterday to pull the trigger on a divorce. He wonders how long it will take them ot figure out that he was having an affair and with who. He says he needs her help, that they're in it together. She says she needs time to think. She makes him leave.  She meets up with Charlie at a coffee shop and hands over Juliet's stash which he promptly dumps in a garbage can. She wishes she could've done that. She then says she's gotta go.  She calls Henry and asks where he dumped the evidence and said she believes him. He tells her.  Machado and the local Wyoming detective pay a visit to Macawi's strip club. Macawi's men point out they don't have a warrant. They ask about Malcolm. The bad guys of course give up nothing.  BAS goes to the dumpster and locates the bag of evidence. She then calls the police to report Gemma missing and tip them off to the evidence.  Unsurprisingly, the police show up on the Butler's doorstep to question Henry, who feigns ignorance of his wife being missing and doesn't she have to be gone for 24 hours? They tell him about the tip from a female caller telling him where the evidence was. After this news comes out he does a shaky job of telling his tale. They want to continue the conversation at the precinct house. BAS watches from across the street as the cops drive him away. She gets a call from Charlie. She tells him she wants him to be her regular sponsor after all. He says it will have to be a more regular thing. She says she'll have to check her schedule but she's down.  The Wyoming detective tells Machado that the DNA on the cigarette butts was that of one of Macawi's dudes. They get a warrant, bust into the strip club, find the weird basement room with the cage, but of course Malcolm is gone.  At the precinct house the police suddenly let him go. He is confused. The police call up Machado and tell him they have some interesting news. They found Bridget Kelly's prints on some evidence from a crime scene at the Butler house. We flashback to the moment when BAS found the evidence in the dumpster, she opened the bag and deliberately put her fingerprints on a piece of the broken vase.  At home Andrew is waiting for BAS and tells her to sit down and that he has news. He explains that Gemma is missing and the police believe she was a victim of foul play. Henry called and filled him in. She sheds a few tears and they hug. Andrew heads off for a business call as Siobhan's phone rings. He informs her that he'll be seeing her soon and wonders what connection Bridget might've had to Gemma and why she might've wanted to hurt her. BAS feigns ignorance.  Over in Paris, Siobhan gets a call and is told "The Gemma problem has been taken care of." She replies she didn't want it to have to come to this.

Oh Gawd, There's Two of Them?

Although he hasn't been named as such, the press is treating Henry as a suspect in Gemma's disappearance, camping out on his front steps. When he emerges they bombard him with questions as he leaves to get in a car. It turns out he's on his way to the precinct house.  As are Bridget-as-Siobhan (BAS) and Andrew, since the cops have turned up on their door with some questions. BAS says she just has to go grab her purse. Andrew gets all chesty with the cops saying she's pregnant and this better be quick. BAS goes to the closet, takes out her cell phone and calls someone and, identifying herself as Bridget, says she messed up big-time this time and so she's skipping town.  At the precinct house the three are separated. In their respective rooms Andrew and Henry are shown Bridget's mug shot and asked if they know who she is. They both correctly identify her as Bridget.  We flashback to the day before and BAS telling them about Bridget, the twin she's ashamed of. She explains most of the story, apologizes, and says she's telling them for the express situation they're in now: being questioned by the cops. They are both, understandably, angry and confused but do their part dutifully. Juliet is also looped in and is aghast, giving the episode it's title: "oh gawd, there's two of them?" (Otherwise she seems uninterested. She's more concerned with getting permission to go to Monica's in Stamford for the weekend. Andrew reluctantly allows it saying Monica's parents need to call him.)  When Agent Machado comes in to see BAS he tells her he's surprised Henry and Andrew know about Bridget. She says it's hard to keep a secret with him around. She plays the message from Bridget for him-- she was calling Siobhan's phone it turns out. She says this message proves Bridget has skipped town. Machado isn't buying it. He also tells BAS that Malcolm Ward is missing and if she hears from him to let him know. She asks if he thinks Malcolm is dead. He says he doesn't know, only that he's gone and foul play is suspected.  BAS sees Henry on the way out of the precinct house and asks how he is. He says he just wants to go home. Indeed, Malcolm is on his way to certain doom, hooded in the back of a van operated by two of Macawi's henchmen. Luckily, they have to take a leak and assuming he's too high to do anything leave him alone in the van at a rest area. He undoes his bonds and escapes. He runs home, grabs his wallet, a clean shirt and hops a bus. When he gets off at a rest stop he recognizes the boots of one of the henchmen in a nearby stall. He clocks the guy with his own gun and, presumably, takes it with.  Meanwhile, Juliet is helping her friend Monica as she pukes into a garbage can at a raging teen house party. Monica needs to get her car home. Juliet keeps insisting that she'll take them back to her place and they can get the car later. They're in the city, even though they're supposed to be in Stamford. Juliet props Monica up and sayst they're leaving.  It is now time for Henry, BAS, and Andrew to attend a gala for a building that Gemma designed.  Several things happen before this however:  -BAS goes to Charlie and asks him, as a former cop, to look into the police's case on Bridget. Without giving too much away she says she knows they're chasing the wrong suspect. She finally gives him her name, and also the location of Gemma's car in long-term parking at JFK.  -Andrew and BAS have a heart-to-heart in which she again apologizes for lying to him, says she was ashamed of Siobhan and that it might change his opinion of her. He asks for a little more credit than that. She says no one is honest all the time and it's hard to be vulnerable. She says she knows he isn't honest all the time. He admits that this is true and has a confession: initially he wasn't psyched about the baby news because they were in a bad place but now he knows it's a blessing. They start making out. But just as it's getting good, his phone rings. It's Juliet's teacher Mr. Carpenter, she's been in a car accident.  Andrew heads off to help her out. Mr. Carpenter reports that Juliet is fine and that she called him. He takes Andrew to Juliet. Juliet says she only had two beers and that Monica was trashed and she was only trying to help when driving her car even though she only has her learner's permit. Andrew's had enough he tells Juliet he's cutting off her trust fund, he thinks it's the only way he can get through to her. Juliet wheels on a still drunk Monica and tells her she owes her ten million dollars. Monica is confused.  Meanwhile at the gala Henry is being hounded by the press and drinking. He confesses to BAS it's only now he realizes how much he loved Gemma. BAS tells him she has someone on the case and that everything is going to be okay. She puts Henry in a cab. As she turns around she spots Malcolm lurking in the gala crowd and promptly faints.  Andrew arrives at the hospital where BAS is being treated for a concussion. He shakes Malcolm's hands and thanks him for helping his wife. Malcolm slouches out. Andrew goes to Siobhan's side and tells her the doctor's want to do an ultrasound to check on the baby. BAS freaks but she can't really refuse.  We cut to the police station where the female cop is pleased to tell Machado that they just got a hit on Malcolm Ward's ATM card and shows him footage of him at a machine in New York that is only a few hours old. Machado thinks this means Bridget is still in New York.  Charlie goes to Gemma's car at JFK, jimmies the door and opens the hatchback. He notices some spots of blood on the edge. He tells someone on the phone that there is blood in the car but it's his, from when Gemma hit him. He wipes it off. It's Siobhan in Paris on the other end of the line. We flashback to the attack on Gemma. Charlie grabbed her, she hit him with a coffee cup and scrambled away into her apartment but he caught up with her. Siobhan asks if everyone still thinks Bridget is her. He says everything is moving right along and to call him with the next move.

Maybe We Can Get a Dog Instead

We pick up where we left off at the ultrasound. Even though the baby is supposed to be no bigger than a bean the doctor can't see anything. Bridget-as-Siobhan says she had some bleeding last week. The doctor says she guesses Siobhan had an ectopic pregnancy and lost it. She expresses sorrow for their loss. Andrew can't believe it.  Later at home, BAS apologizes. Andrew says he's just glad she's okay. Juliet hasmade her some tea and asks if it hurt. BAS says no. They give BAS time to rest. She checks her messages and Malcolm has called saying he's at a hotel on 95th and needs to see her.  After Andrew goes to sleep she goes to Malcolm and hugs him and asks what happened. He explains about Bodaway's basement. He says he made them believe that she was in Seattle. He said he was careful and wasn't followed. He advises her to leave NYC, just like he is. She says she can't leave since she threw "Bridget" under the bus in the disappearance of Gemma. Malcolm is aghast. She says she had no other choice and apologizes for getting him mixed up in this. She offers to move him to a safer place and hands him a wad of cash. He tells her to just go. She asks if he's sure he's okay. He asks for some slack after what he's been through. He hands her her 6 month chip, figuring she'd want it so she won't forget who she is. She leaves.  BAS handles her chip the next day and flashes back to an NA meetingwith Malcolm seven months previously. Bridget is at her first meeting all figdety and clammy. She didn't want to share. Machado was watching over her at the meeting. She is taken from her reverie by Andrew who took the day off so they could spend it together. She says she has a doctor's appointment and she'd rather go alone.  In class with Mr. Carpenter is discussing "Of Mice and Men' with class and Juliet is the only one who participates. She gets into it again with the bully. She goes to him after the class and asks him to do something about Tessa. He says he'll take care of it. She says she's had a tough week what with losing her trust fund and her stepmother's miscarriage. He offers his condolences and offers to send her to the guidance counselour. She says she'd rather talk to him and basically asks him out on a date. He demurs.  Andrew heads to work. He and Olivia talk about letting Mr. Genet go since he lost transfer documents with his signature on them. She asks if something else is bothering him. He tells her Siobhan lost the baby. She tells him to to go home and be with her. He says she's dealing with it in her own way. She asks how he's dealing with it. He says they were set on not having kids but he was warming up to it. She asks if they can try again. He says it's a good question.  In his hotel room, Malcolm shoots up.  Juliet gets a call from Henry and breaks the news about the loss of the baby. He is obviously upset.  BAS meets Charlie and he tells her a story that he went to JFK long-term parking and saw a few stray hairs in Gemma's car but not much else. As he's talking she flashes back to the first time she opened up to Malcolm at a meeting. She explains she's there because she has to be not because she wants to. They both admit to heroin addiction. He offers to be her sponsor. Siobhan admits her old sponsor is in town. She says she's not going to break up with him, she's just a little stressed since having Malcolm here could add to her stress level. She admits that she and her husband are going through some stuff. He tells her to just be honest with them: if you come clean, you stay clean. She takes off. He calls Siobhan in Paris and tells her that Malcolm is in NYC. Siobhan tells him to make sure he doesn't mess things up. He says he's got to take a different approach with Malcolm since the Gemma thing got of out of hand and wasn't what he signed up for when he took this job. Siobhan him to spare her the details since she's been listening to a guy complain about his job for the last few weeks and to just take care of it.  And now we're in Paris as Tyler enters the room as Siobhan hangs up with Charlie. They playfully banter about her not seeing any of Paris since they're always in bed. He says that's her fault. Either way she's not going with him on his business trip to Rome so as not to be a distraction. As he gets in a car to head to the airport he gets a call from his boss... Andrew, who says since they fired Mr. Genet they want to make Tyler the head of European operations. He asks Tyler to come to New York to discuss it. Tyler happily obliges.  Henry goes to the Martin house to see BAS. Andrew's out. She tells him her guy didn't find anything in Gemma's car. He lets her know he knows about the baby. He says she must be relieved. She says that's a really ugly thing to say. She says she thought he let her go. He says he thought deep down when she had her baby she'd change her mind but now he knows what they had is over.  Malcolm is zoning out to TV when simultaneously Siobhan calls and the cops show up at the door. At the precinct Machado waves the drugs in his face and asks what happened and says he can trust him. Malcolm claim he knows nothing, that Bridget hooked up with her sister but now she's gone. Machado says he's trying to help her and admits that, yes he does need her in his case against Macawi. He says he hopes that when Bridget reaches out he does the right thing. He makes the drug charge go away so he can follow him to Bridget.  At the Martin house BAS talks to Juliet about her bully. She says Mr. C is taking care of it. Juliet says it sucks about the baby. BAS says she feels awful. Juliet says it's not her fault. She admits she was anti-baby at first but got excited about a little brother or sister. She ask if she and Andrew will try again. BAS says she doesn't think so, she wants to go back to the way things were. Juliet says maybe they can get a dog.  The next morning she tries to talk to Andrew and he blows up at her having overheard her tell Juliet she doesn't want to try again. She says she thought it was too soon. He says the baby changed things and without it he doesn't know where they stand. Her phone rings and he tells her to take it. He says he has a business dinner but won't make her go since she hates them. She says she wants to join him for a business dinner so they can spend time together. He says she has a funny way of showing it. He again tells her to take the call. He leaves, she does. He says he needs to see her. She tells him to meet her at a coffee shop nearby. The next call comes from Machado and he tells her Malcolm is in NYC. She says she's on her way to meet him now. Turns out Machado's in her lobby, he wants her to wear a wire. She tries to demur and he threatens her with the Henry Butler secret.  She wears the wire and meets Malcolm. She meets him by saying you must be Malcolm, and introduces herself as Siobhan. He's confused. She asks if he's okay. She says she is given the circumstances. She then spills coffee on herself and walks away. She returns and a waiter stops by and shows him a menu-- in it BAS has placed a note saying that she's wired. He gets it. She says if he hears from Bridget he should tell her, he can trust her. He says it's not about trust, he just doesn't know anything. In the van, Machado says it's not going anywhere. She joins him in the van and complains that he didn't tell her he was an addict and how come he didn't help Malcolm like he helped Bridget. Machado says Bridget was a material witness and that Malcolm isn't his responsibility. BAS says she sees, he only helps those who can help him.  She catches up with Malcolm and calls him a liar. He gives her the pot/kettle answer and says it's clear she's beginning to enjoy playing dress up in Siobhan's life. She says this isn't about her, it's about him and his using. He says he's not. He explains about Bodaway hooking him to take it away so the withdrawal would make him spill. He is angry saying he was sober five years and Bodaway took it away in a few weeks. BAS is sad for him. He says he can beat it he did it once and can again. She offers to help. He asks for money. She says she won't give him money to buy drugs. She reminds him of his steps. She says to let her be the one who's straight with him. He wonders how that's possible since she can't be honest with herself.  Juliet is mad and confronts Mr.C about transferring her out of his class. She thought he was going to transfer Tessa. She thought he liked her. He says he does but not in that way.  Good thing BAS didn't go to Andrew's dinner, it's with Tyler. Andrew asks if he's married, Tyler says no but he is seeing someone. Olivia is at dinner as well. And then.. BAS shows up. Tyler is shocked when Andrew, very happy that she's there, introduces her as his wife. She shakes his hand and introduces herself as Siobhan. When they have a moment he asks why she told him her name was Cora. He says he didn't realize he was sleeping with the boss's wife.  Later Malcolm is moseying down the street and steals some money off an outdoor table.  Later still in the car Andrew says he's glad she came. She says she wants the marriage to work, baby or no baby, no more games.  Tyler calls Siobhan in Paris. He says he understands why she didn't want to come to Rome now since she had to fly to NYC. He calls her an amazing actress to sit through three courses pretending not to know him. She says she's flying back to Paris. He tells her to save it and find a new hotel since his company is no longer underwriting her life.  When BAS and Andrew get home, Malcolm is there in the lobby. He tells her he needs some help. She introduces Andrew to Malcolm. Up in the apartment BAS takes Andrew aside and asks if Malcolm can stay for the night saying he was one of the only good things in his sister's life. She flashes back to Malcolm helping her through step 9 with her sister. In the present Andrew says Malcolm helped her on the night she fainted that's all the convincing he needs and takes her hand.  BAS puts Malcolm to bed. He apologizes. She tells him no matter where she is, or who he thinks she is, she's always there for him.  The next morning Juliet spies on a Young Samaritans meeting that Mr. C is running. She joins the club.  BAS sees Malcolm off and says he's going to get through this. She deposits Malcolm at Charlie's doorstep, he says they did the right thing coming there.

P recaps...Shut Up and Eat Your Bologna

Bridget begins to realize she is developing feelings for Andrew, while Henry and Andrew's business partner Olivia bond over common interests. Malcolm is suspicious of Bridget's new NA sponsor Charlie and Bridget makes an appointment with Siobhan's therapist, hoping it will help her discover some insight into her sister's life.

Shut Up and Eat Your Bologna

Andrew and Bridget-as-Siobhan make out on their bed in the morning and discuss taking a vacation. He says she's earned some place warm after all she's been through. They're going to Turks & Caicos. She also gets her fancy dress that Juliet ruined back. Andrew wants to put it away in the closet but of course that's where she keeps her gun. So she does it.  She grabs the gun and flashes back to the day in Wyoming when she went on the run. It turns out she didn't bean the cop and run like she said. Turns out out her cop protector told her to run since half of the force and the Feds were on Bodaway's payroll. (She beaned him by accident when he came in to tell her.) And he gave her the gun saying she needed it for protection and he needed a cover story. He asked if she had anywhere to go, she said her sister. She refused the gun but he stuffed it in her bag.  In the present, BAS calls Charlie and asks how to get rid of a gun. He offers to take care of it. She allows him. He claims he's at library but really he's at home making a sandwich. He says he got the Butler's bank statements so he that's a good lead on Gemma. The better lead? The fact that he has her tied up in his basement bound and gagged. He tells her that when he takes off her gag she shouldn't make a peep and should just "shut up and eat your bologna."  At the NA meeting Malcolm shares after his bad few weeks, not specifically of course. He give thanks to Charlie for giving him a place to stay and getting him back into the rooms. He's been clean six days. BAS arrives for this announcement. BAS gives Charlie the gun. She explains how she came by the gun-- from Bridget. We get another flashback this one to her arrival at Siobhan's and finding it in her bag.  Henry's at Andrew's office to sign some papers with his kids. He's grateful for the distraction. Olivia enters and comments on how cute his redheaded children are. Henry lets them know that Gemma's dad isn't doing well with a bad ticker and the stress of Gemma's disappearance. Apparently, immortality is the one thing that Gemma's rich dad Tim Arborgast can't buy.  BAS and Malcolm have coffee. She explains she gave Charlie the gun. Malcolm wonders if it's a good idea. BAS says she can't have it around, especially now that Andrew is starting to trust her. He points out she's pretending to be his dead wife, how much trust can there be? He also says this Prince Charming fantasy was supposed to be temporary. She says she knows but she doesn't want to leave until she finds out who's trying to hurt her sister. Malcolm wonder if there's anything at the house she overlooked. She rifles through Siobhan's things again and finds a pill bottle with a doctor's name. Dr. Morris. She makes an appointment.  She shows up at the doctor's office, sits in the wrong chair and isn't sure what answers to give. The doctor wonders why she's calling herself Siobhan Martin? Apparently, she never uses her real name when making appointments. (BAS flashes on Tyler calling her Cora, that was her go to fake name.) The doctor says she's glad she decided to come back to therapy. BAS says she doesn't even know why she gave it up. Dr. Morris asks what's happened in her life, she reports things are better with Andrew, she broke it off with Henry, and Juliet doesn't hate her anymore. The doctor is impressed she totally transformed her life, outside of treatment. She wants to know why she came back then? She says she's not sure. The doctor asks her to think about it. BAS says she can't exactly say. The doctor says something must've felt different this morning. She flashes on her kisses with Andrew and says "oh my god, I'm falling in love with Andrew... all over again."  At the office Andrew and Olivia discuss "hitting" Arborgast, now that's he's weak, sick, and worried about his legacy and his grandchildren and if his money in the right place. He's unsure. She is surprised at this. He doesn't want to shake Henry down for his connection to Arborgast. She tells him two of their six investors have pulled out and if they don't find someone to cover those losses they could be in big trouble.  BAS goes on about her "improving" relationship with Andrew and how she doesn't want it to end. At the end of the session she wonders if she should get her anti-depressant prescription refilled. The doctor says she seems to be doing great. She looks bewildered and asks if she doesn't think she's depressed anymore. The doctor tells her that they both know she didn't prescribe those pills for depression. (Huh?)  Malcolm is stressing in the bathroom when Charlie checks on him. He says he's okay and he seems to be. He notices some mouthwash and wants Charlie to get rid of it. (It's got alcohol in it.) Charlie pours it out, saying booze was never really his poison. Malcolm calls BAS and she points out that not all addicts draw a hardline on mouthwash. He says he looked around for signs of using and there were no booze or drugs but noticed he has almost no clothes. He thinks something's not right. The batteries in the remote are still shrink-wrapped but Charlie says he's lived their for months. BAS hangs up abruptly to sneak back into the therapist's office after she leaves. Under the guise of using the rest room she grabs her file. She quickly stuffs it back in when she hears something. The doctor returns and wonders what she's doing in her office.  Siobhan claims she wanted to talk some more and starts talking fast and crazy. The doctor says she needs to reasses if she can still keep seeing her. BAS says she understands and skedaddles with the paper. It tells her that the anti-depressants were for paranoia, she thought someone was stalking her and she found her "answer" at Gramercy Cathedral. BAS is surprised Siobhan went to church.  Olivia and Andrew continue to argue about trying to poach Arbogast via Henry. BAS shows up for a lunch date. This seems to annoy Olivia. Andrew explains the real reason for Olivia's annoyance. BAS points out Gemma's still missing and he says Tim's sick. She says she thinks she's going to be sick now at the idea of pouncing on him. Andrew changes the subject to trying a "thought experiment." He asks if "what if doing the right thing, cost us everything, the house, money, clothes, would you stand with me?" She says she would. He says he's got to get back to work. He asks her plans for the day. She asks what he'd say if she said she was going to church. He's confused and said she might burn. She scoffs. He says she put up a big fight about getting married in a church. She says it's just a thought experiment.  Charlie comes home and says he's going to take a quick shower. He drops his jacket and Malcolm rifles through it. It's empty. Including the wallet. All that's in it is a key with an address on it for a P.O. Box. Malcolm goes to it and takes out mail addressed to a John Delario.  BAS arrives at the Gramercy Cathedral. It's now "for sale" and has been turned into a bar. She goes down into it and is shocked to see "Charlie" downing drinks at the bar. The bartender gives him lip. He says he hasn't had a drink in five day sso it's time for her to stop judging and start pouring. She replies "whatever you say John." She is freaked as he hides in the corner. A guy asks if she needs help and she asks if he's ever seen "John" here with her. He says no, buthe's always drinking whiskey and always on his cell.  BAS calls someone and says to meet her at the apartment.  The real Siobhan calls Charlie from Paris and asks for a progress report. He says everybody's squared away and all is taken care and that he got rid of the gun. Siobhan points out the only reason she had the gun and was freaked about it was because the cop that John hired gave it to her. He points out that the cop needed a story to cover his ass and it succeeded in getting Bridget to come to Siobhan. (Oh my god this is so tangled now.)  Andrew goes to Olivia and says they're not pursuing Arborgast even if it means they're losing their chance altogether, too bad. She wonders why. He says a month ago he probably would've done it but now he has other things to live for then their bottom line. She disgustedly says "Sibohan." He says, "I guess I want to be the man she thinks I am." She's revolted...and determined. She pulls out a file, the one Henry signed earlier, and rips it up.  Malcolm and BAS debrief about Charlie/John. She calls herself an idiot. He says it's not her fault since he went to such lengths to gain her trust. They try to figure out what his deal is. Malcolm decides to check out his other address, the bill he stole from the P.O. Box has the address.  Olivia takes the file back to Henry. He says he thought he signed it. She claims he missed a page which is understandable given the stress he's under. They share a drink and he asks her story. She asks what he's heard. He's heard she's a bitch. She says it comes with the territory, especially now that Andrew has lost his killer instinct since Andrew's gone soft in the wake of his reconciliation with Siobhan. Olivia says "that was fast" and wonders if Henry knows what's changed between them. Henry says he doesn't know but he'd love to. The babies cry on the monitor and Henry goes to check on them. She looks through his phone and finds a picture of Henry and Siobhan on his phone and emails it to herself. He comes back down and she leaves saying she got what she came for.  BAS meets Charlie at a restaurant. She says she's having a bad night. She apologizes for pulling him away from what he was doing. He says he was looking into the Gemma investigation. She spaces out on his mouth and teeth. He wonders where she is. She says she's zoning out thinking about how grateful she is at how he's gone above and beyond as a sponsor. She wonders why? He says he's just a good guy.  Meanwhile Malcolm has broken into Charlie/John's house.  BAS apologizes for everything she's had him do and making it his problem and it was a mistake.  Malcolm continues to look around, with a flashlight. Gemma hears him above.  BAS says she wants the gun back, nay, needs it. He asks why. She says she doens't feel safe anymore.  Malcolm notices the locked basement door.  Charlie asks her why. She says since Gemma's still missing and knowing that person is still out there she'd feel safer if she was still armed. He says okay but it's not on him, with a guy who said he'd take the serial number off. He gets up to leave and she tries to stall him but he says he has somwhere to be. She thanks him and then texts Malcolm to get out. He ignores the text and keeps working on the door for a minute.He then grabs a phone off the counter. Gemma has worked herself into a frenzy in the chair trying to reach the basement stairs but only ends up tipping herself over.  As Charlie leaves the restaurant he leaves a message for Siobhan in Paris: "Siobhan, she's on to me."

That's What You Get for Trying to Kill Me

There's a lot of bad news to go around tonight especially for Gemma, Charlie/John, Henry, Jimmy, and Juliet.  In the night's A story, we are reminded that Bridget-As-Siobhan and Malcolm are on to Charlie/John, they're not exactly sure why he has Gemma but are convinced he does, especially after finding her cell phone at his place. Charlie/John calls Siobhan in Paris and says the game has changed and he wants to off Gemma or he wants more money. She says to hold his horses and it will take time to get more money. He says it's too late.  Malcolm and BAS tip off the police to Charlie/John, but as a former cop, he plays it cool and asks if they're going to believe a newly sober addict or a former cop. They go with the cop and question Malcolm, who was spotted during his break-in.  All while this is happening, Andrew reminds Siobhan that it's their sixth anniversary with an extravangant display of roses and tender lovemaking. He says he can't believe it's been six years. She points out that it does feel more like six weeks. They share I love yous and other warm fuzzies.  BAS goes to Henry to try and get more help but he is livid with her and say she's not a cop and every time she gets involved with her "friends" like Charlie/John, things get worse.  Charlie/John pays BAS a visit and cops to having Gemma. He asks for a ransom. She says she will pay even though she knows she can't trust him.  Henry later goes to visit her and when he sees Charlie/John on the visitor log he rushes to find him in the street.  When Andrew arrives home to take BAS for their anniversary dinner he finds her counting piles of cash. She confesses the ransom plot, convinces him not to call the police and wonders what they should do since Charlie/John wants 250k and she's only got 40. He pulls out a gorgeous diamond ring he was going to give her as a present and says it's well worth over 200k. He says he was going to propose again. She is touched.  They go to the drop point at Penn Station but there's no sign of Charlie/John. He calls her and says he told her to come alone. She says Andrew insisted. He says he means the cops who are sitting outside. She swears she didn't call them. He says it doesn't matter now. He opens the trunk of his car where Gemma is bound and gagged and shoots into the trunk. Henry and the cops rush in. Turns out he called the cops after seeing Charlie/John on the visitor log and they've been tailing BAS. The cops found Charlie/John's prints all over Gemma's phone. BAS explains about the ransom. Charlie/John is at neither place of residence. BAS pulls out the bill for the storage space that Malcolm found and tells the cops to go there.  It turns out he is there but the cops won't arrive in time. He opens his trunk and is shocked to see Gemma gone. She whacks him from behind with a wrench and says (episode title alert) "that's what you get for trying to kill me." It's not good enough though, just after he confesses to her that Siobhan is still alive and behind everything he shoots her. But then the real Siobhan arrives and shoots him. Later, all of the bad news is relayed to Malcolm, Andrew, and BAS.  In the night's B story a stripper named Mary is killed back in Wyoming. It turns out she was Machado's confidential informant on Bodaway. Which is, apparently, news to detective Jimmy who has been working the Bodaway case with Machado for two years. Machado tells Jimmy that Mary said that Bodaway had a man on the inside in the force, a man she called "the Matador" that she never met but only heard of. Jimmy says he'll look into it. He calls Machado with a tip and tells him to meet him at a warehouse where he claims to have tailed the potentially corrupt cop. Of course, he's taken him there to kill him. As they poke around the warehouse Machado reminisces about their first meeting and how he didn't like him at first. But then he did his research and was impressed by Jimmy's record especially his take down of a particularly nasty crime boss. That crime boss's nickname was "The Bull." You know who takes down bulls? Matadors. Jimmy said he knew Machado would figure it out. He draws his gun and says he's sorry about all of this. Machado says not to worry since he's been tailed by FBI agents all day. Jimmy thinks he's bluffing and then the agents appear. Machado says he looks forward to Jimmy answering questions, like what really happened the night Bridget Kelly went on the lam.  In the night's C story, Juliet continues to flirt with Mr. C, in front of her friend Andrea no less. When she touches his arm after a day of detention picking up garbage and recycling, he gets angry and tells her her behavior is inapppropriate and unacceptable. She turns on him and says he shouldn't flatter himself into thinking she's flirting with him. He asks Andrea to step outside the classroom so he can talk to Juliet. Later a tearful Juliet confesses to Andrea on video chat that Mr. C raped her. Oof.  In the night's final story Siobhan, who handily took care of Charlie, is back in NYC, having been unable to convince Tyler in Paris that although she did use him at first that she actually cares about him. He didn't go for this, even after seeing the black eyes she claimed came from Andrew but which she gave herself. As a last ditch effort she left him a package when she checked out of her hotel, the Pivoine, a positive pregnancy test. He calls and asks if it's his. She says it is.  As Malcolm and BAS collect his things from the now deceased Charlie/John's apartment she notices an envelope with the words "Siobhan" and "Pivoine 419" (her room number) on them. She wonders aloud what is really going on here: why did Charlie want to hurt Siobhan? She figures it must be more than money.

It Just Got Normal

The scene opens with Bridget, who is pretending to be Siobhan to everybody, expect her confidante Malcolm, taking off her diamond ring, and gets into the shower. However, the real Siobhan is there, and keeps looking at her from behind. The story move back two days into the past. Andrew and Bridget are at their anniversary dinner, when Greta arrives with her husband. She has Peony flowers for Bridget, which she finds slightly strange, but cannot express anything but that she finds them out of season, favorite, and that Greta must have a hard time looking for them. However Greta would do anything to please Siobhan! Later, when Greta announces her fund raising plans for public schools, one of which is Juliette's, Bridget shows interest. That was unexpected for Greta, but she expresses happiness in her plans. Detective Victor meets Henry at his apartment, when he expresses frustration that the cops are behaving as if the case is closed.    They found Bridgette's fingerprints on the gun, and yet they say Charlie Young/John Delario shot himself. Siobhan never knew Charlie, so what could the cops have to do with her? Victor promises to follow up as closely as he can, but he is not revealing information because it has to stay confidential. Victor thinks Bridgette needed money, so she kidnapped her sister's wealthy friend (Gemma), and that's how things proceeded. Henry cannot but sigh. Later, when Andrew and Bridget (whom Andrew thinks is wife Siobhan) are getting ready for bed, she wants to know if he has an opinion about Juliet acting strange off-late. She has been less combative, but Andrew hopes that is a good thing. Before they are in bed, Bridget takes off her ring, which is when Andrew thinks she doesn't like it. But she explains she loves it except for the band – it is too loose, and the ring keeps falling off her finger.  Early next morning, the real Siobhan comes in at Andrew's office, telling the security guard with the key she wanted to surprise her husband. However, she cannot get through the password security for the files she needs. Before long, Andrew's secretary comes in, and she, scared like a drenched cat scares the secretary with her wide eyes. However, she manages by telling her to keep it a secret that she saw her, because she was only looking to surprise Andrew. Meanwhile, Bridget is at Andrew's place, from where he is leaving for work, and Juliette is leaving for school. Malcolm calls Birdget and announces he is not taking it forward if doesn't find anything up front. Besides, he has a job interview to attend. However, all Bridget wants is to keep a track on Andrew's computer expert.  At Juliet's school, she lets on to her friend that she is not talking about Mr. Carpenter's sexual assault at home. She wants just to forget it and let it go by. Meanwhile, Siobhan calls Tyler from a caf, and apologizes for hanging up when she was in Andrew's office. However, he wants her to find out the files that he has hidden from his investors, so that he can make his exit at the right time. As an Andrew Charles employee, he is not risking it further, and wants Siobhan to know that security on home computers is far weaker than in offices. Siobhan hangs up abruptly yet again, and rushes out of the restaurant when she finds Henry walking down the pavement. He is not interested in her, and lets her know he is busy. However, just before boarding the taxi, he lets on he cares if Siobhan is in danger. They agree to meet at the loft. Meanwhile, Victor is investigating the Delario case, as his colleague wonders about the validity of Bridget's presence in New York at the time of Delario's murder. However, Victor sees that irrelevant after a while, because Delario's death doesn't look like a suicide now. The angle of the shot, and many other factors are just making the police assumptions fall apart.   When Andrew hopes he can convince his office team about the growth projections in the next five years, they ask for the next 10. However Andrew is sorry his software man is not present at the moment. That is when Malcolm comes up with his excellent programming skills, and screens up an impressive graph showing the growth will continue. Meanwhile, Greta arrives at the Martins' for taking forward the public school funding program with Bridget. However, when Juliette arrives, Greta leaves without any sign of being ready to leave them alone. When Juliette hears about the invitation arrangements, which includes Mr. Carpenter, she gives Bridget a strange looking, but refuses to come out in the open. Before long, Siobhan's at Andrew's place, where she tries hacking Andrew's computer. She is third time lucky. However, as she transfers the files to her flash drive, Andrew enters, and soon after that enters Siobhan's twin Bridget. Both of them are unaware of the file transfer that is occurring on a completely visible screen, and when Siobhan watches the kiss Bridget and Andrew share, she cannot resist anymore. Meanwhile, Henry is waiting to meet Siobhan, who is already late, and he leaves with all the contempt in the world.   It is only a couple of minutes later, that Siobhan finds Bridget in the shower, stares at her, and then runs off with the ring she took off so that it doesn't slip off in the water. When Bridget comes out of the shower, and doesn't find the ring, she thinks it must have slipped into the sink, and calls for a plumber. Later at the fund raising party hosted at the Martins', Andrew hopes Juliette will be dressed, because the guests have already arrived. However, she is only waiting for her dad to leave, so that she can get dressed. Before long, Henry arrives and lays on to Bridget, thinking like all the others, that she is Siobhan. She never had to call him if she was going to ditch him before their meeting. She has let her down, and he would rather not see her anymore. While Bridget finds herself a solitary recluse in the cold balcony, Greta doesn't take long to arrive there. She hopes Henry and Siobhan are not seeing each other anymore. She also lets on how when they did, she could not see Gemma in the eye. She hated Siobhan for that. And her Peony flowers was a way of getting back at Siobhan. It bears reference to the Piovine Hotel that Siobhan chose on that fateful weekend.   Before long, Juliette is behaving 'drunk' at the party as she flies off comments at her teacher. Andrew sends her back to her room, after which Bridget arrives to find out what has happened between Juliette and Mr. Carpenter. Moments later, Bridget decks out Carpenter of the party, saying he should never be seen near her stepdaughter anymore. However, when they approach the daughter, she hopes her stepmom never did that – she was ready to forget the sex assault and move on. Meanwhile, Victor is at a restaurant, where the waitress tells him she saw Charlie and Siobhan in May – not September. And Henry is drinking away his frustration, when Siobhan arrives, pretending she was the one at the fund-raising party last night. She knows how much she wronged him, but she loves him.

P recaps...What Are You Doing Here, Ho-Bag?

Juliet's mother Catherine arrives in town, where she proceeds to wreak havoc on Andrew and Bridget's relationship. Bridget discovers someone from Siobhan's past and thinks he might be the key to her learning more information about her sister. Meanwhile, Henry discovers a lead that causes Agent Machado to think he is closing in on Bridget.

What Are You Doing Here, Ho-Bag?

A lot of forward, if sometimes confusing, motion tonight as new players are introduced and at least one person is let in on one of the big secrets.  Bridget-as-Siobhan (BAS) calls Malcolm and leaves a message filling him in on the unfortunate Juliet situation, congratulates him on his new job with Andrew and airs her suspicions that it was the Hotel Pivoine in Paris, not Boston.  Actual Siobhan explains to Henry that her ending their affair was all a ruse to throw people off the scent but she still loves him and couldn't lie anymore. He is angry and says she had him fooled but he seems to take her back. They make out but she stops short and tells him to meet her later. Outside she calls Tyler and says she got the financial info from Andrew's laptop and he commits his help in her scheme when she returns to Paris which he wants her to do soon since he says it's not safe for her in New York.  She then goes to pawn BAS's ring. She barters with the clerk who doesn't want to buy stolen merchandise but eventually gets him to bite for 15,000 dollars and calls someone to alert them that she has the money.  Up in the apartment, Juliet's mom Catherine is back in town and wreaking havoc, drinking and bathing in BAS's tub, which when found, she points out used to be her tub first. The next morning Juliet and Andrew thank Siobhan for letting Catherine say since Juliet needs her mom. Meanwhile, the police and school are investigating trying to get evidence to indict Mr. Carpenter since at the moment they only have Juliet's word. Catherine drags Juliet off for some retail therapy.  BAS calls the Pivoine and deduces that AS stayed there for awhile and had a male friend.  Machado goes to visit Jimmy in prison but he won't give up anything on Macawi or the night Bridget ran even with an offer of a reduced sentence. Jimmy calls Machado desperate, and clearly not as hot on Bridget's trail as he thought and that he's no closer to bagging Macawi then he was 6 months ago. Machado and his partner Pettibone say Jimmy better watch his back.  BAS calls Andrew's assistant Claudine and asks about any recent trips to Paris. She says there haven't been any but mentions the new head of European operations Tyler Barrett. BAS is connected to him and realizes he's the man she met who was so confused when he met her and realized her name wasn't Cora. He's also now confused that she's calling on his office phone and asks if she got in touch with her guy Solomon. Andrew enters and she hangs up quickly.  Andrew confronts her and says he knows about the ring since someone tried to pawn it and he was alerted. She admits her lie about sizing it. They wonder who would try to sell it and both suspect Juliet.  Tyler calls AS back and she realizes Bridget must've called him. She gets new passports from a shifty guy but they say Cora Farrell and she says she wants a new name: Rebecca Sheldrake.  Juliet's principal arrives with a DVD saying the school videotapes public spaces. The tape clearly shows her coming on to him in the hallway and him trying to stop her. Juliet freaks and insists he still pushed himself on her. Her mother turns on her viciously and accuses Juliet of trying to hurt the teacher for refusing her advances. Andrew notes that this will make it harder to get an indictment. Juliet stalks off.  Henry and AS meet and he asks her why she killed Gemma. She's confused, he thinks she's Bridget trying to fool him. She says she can explain all of this. But there's no time because he's tipped off Machado. But when he bring her in her fingerprints don't match. He asks her about John/Charlie. She says she hired him as a PI to look into her sister when they got back in touch. He asks about the scene in the alley buying the passports. (Henry followed her.) She said she called the guy, hoping it would help with her search for Bridget.  Back in the pen, Jimmy has been seriously roughed up and he's ready to talk.  Andrew and BAS worry that there is no case against Carpenter. Andrew doesn't know what to think. BAS apologizes about the fight. Andrew got the ring back and is now installing a new security system. Juliet comes in looking for help. In the living room Catherine is burning childhood pictures all drunk and maudlin hurling insults at Juliet. Andrew kicks her out but not before she and BAS have a big fight. He throws money at her. BAS goes to Juliet and says what her mom did was about her not Juliet, and tells a story from her own youth when her mom destroyed a pair of BAS's favorite boots as a way to get back at her dad.  Machado is in his office trying to work out all the confusing cases of the Bridget-Siobhan-Gemma-Charlie-Macawi situation. Pettibone calls and says Kemper decided to talk and gave signed confessions for the murders. He's still protecting Macawi. Pettibone wants to go with it but Machado can't. He calls Jimmy and says he's not giving it up. Jimmy says he knows it was Machado who had him roughed up not Macawi's guys. Macawi comes to visit and Jimmy asks him to get him out and if he does he'll help him find Bridget.  Catherine returns for things and BAS says she doesn't want any more confrontations. She hands Catherine a note that Juliet wrote. She wonders if it was like one of Siobhan's old love notes that she wrote to Andrew where she would rearrange the letters of their secret rendezvous. BAS remembers she and her sister used to do word jumbles as kids. She wishes Catherine luck. Catherine tells her to suck it. BAS goes to AS's contact book and figures out who Solomon is in the book. She calls and says her name is Cora Farrell and the man on the other end says he'll be there in an hour.  A limo arrives and she gets in. A little banter with the driver uncovers that the last time he took her to JFK was nine months ago when she went to Wyoming. Bridget changes her mind and asks to go back to the apartment. She calls Malcolm and leaves another message saying she is confused: Siobhan knew where she was before the trial.  Tessa, Juliet's school nemesis, drops by unannounced. Juliet is rude to her in front of Andrew. But then Tessa drops the bombshell: Mr. Carpenter raped her too.  AS goes to Henry and convinces him to come with her and says all will be explained. They wait outside her building and Bridget shows up and gets out of the limo. Henry sees her. Siobhan says "that's Bridget' and explains that it is Bridget living a lie with Andrew, not her. And then she says she's still pregnant with Henry's child. He is floored.

P recaps...It's Easy to Cry When This Much Cash is Involved

Bridget visits some of the last locations Siobhan went before she disappeared and discovers that Siobhan kept a secret office. Olivia finds out some information about Henry and blackmails him into introducing her to Gemma's wealthy father Tim Arbogast. Meanwhile, in Paris, Tyler struggles with a moral decision that could affect Siobhan and Andrew.

It's Easy to Cry When This Much Cash is Involved

So Bridget-as-Siobhan calls up Solomon to go on another ride and pick his brain. She explains she's asking so many questions because she's newly sober and is missing chunks of time. (We learn that Solomon was special forces.) She says she needs answers and will pay him double to get them. He buys this. he tells her the last time he drove her was Sept. 8, the day she met up with Siobhan and she (BAS believes) killed herself. She wants to retrace her steps from that day. He says the first stop is Harlem. They go to a building and she discovers she had a secret office.  There she sees a picture of herself or Actual-Siobhan (AS) with a little blond boy. She picks up a piece of paper with an address. We see AS with a gun, hiding behind a door, listening and watching.  She finds a keyring under a drawer and then notices the open door where AS is hiding. She opens it and it's full of file boxes. She doesn't see AS and shuts the door. She goes back to the car and Solomon and hands him the address, he can't identify since it's just a "Main St." They head to the next stop.  Meanwhile AS is explaining to Henry how she and BAS switched lives because Bridget was in danger and she was pregnant with her and Henry's baby and she needed time to think. (So, yes, she's lying, making it seem like they swapped on purpose.) He tells her that this is insane and if she'd told him he would've stayed away from Bridget. She admits she didn't think it through and thought it would be temporary. Indeed, he says and because of it his life has fallen apart in a big way. She apologizes and says she didn't want to hurt him or Gemma and that Bridget got greedy when she met Charlie and they kidnapped Gemma. (More lies.) Henry wants to go to the police and expose Bridget. Siobhan says not yet. She and Andrew have an ironclad pre-nup but she discovered something in Paris that could change her fortunes and they could be together with Andrew's money. She says she needs the key that Bridget stole. He wants to help but she says he can't, he has to keep his distance.  In the apartment a lawyer is prepping Juliet for her cross-examination on the stand, as Andrew and Catherine. She explains that night he got angry and then he got nice and then came over to her and he tucked her hair behind her ear and whispered "I bet you're the kind of girl who can keep secrets." Then she describes the assault. But her mother says she's changing her story and the lawyer agrees her testimony has to be a carbon copy of her report to the police. Juliet asks for a break. Juliet is worried she can't do it. Catherine undermines her. Juliet promises she'll get it right.  Olivia visits Henry and he wonders if she has more papers to sign. She asks to be introduced to his father-in-law Tim Arborgast. Henry points out that he had a coronary after Gemma died. Olivia says this is all the more reason to protect his assets and legacy. Henry says he'll be okay. Olivia says she just wants a reference. He says no and that she needs to be a little more creative and a little less transparent. She says she was hoping it wouldn't come to this but: and she shows him a picture of himself and Siobhan in bed. If he gives her Arborgast she'll hit delete.  Solomon takes BAS to a coffee shop where, he says, she'd sit a the chess table for hours. She goes to the table and sees it has a lock. She can't open it with the key. The waitress comes over and offers her a pad and paper to make a wish to stick in the slot. Instead she jimmies it open with a knife and finds a note dated 9/8/11: "I wish I could forgive my sister, but I can't." We flashback to that day and BAS telling AS how sorry she is and how she thinks about Sean everyday. AS says she's already forgiven. Solomon brings in her bag. She looks distraught. He asks if she's okay. She says her sister lied to her and she's now wondering what else she lied about.  Henry meets with his father-in-law Tim Arborgast, who is still smoking even after his heart attack. Arborgast says they haven't been one on one since the day Henry asked to marry Gemma. Arborgast says he realizes this meeting is Henry wanting to stay connected to Gemma through him. He'll always love her and feels the same about Henry. Henry than gives him the Martin Charles recommendation.  Juliet and Catherine are trying to pick out her court outfit. Catherine demands a hug and wants her to wear Chanel and pearls. BAS enters and offers pearls as well. Juliet snips at her and then apologizes saying that her mom is a lot to deal with and wishes she'd stop being a bitch. BAS reassures her that she's not making a mistake and that it takes courage to stand up to someone and not run away and she knows this. She says before she knows it, it will be over and she can start fresh. Juliet says she needs BAS there. BAS says she'll be there.  Henry and Siobhan make out on a hotel bed. Siobhan heads for the shower and gets an incoming video chat message from Tyler. Henry answers and takes the messge that Tyler called and she'll know why. She comes out to ask if he's joining her and asks who Tyler is and notes that he's a good-looking guy. She says Tyler is the head of European office for Martin Charles and has the info that will help them incriminate Andrew and live a wealthy life. She senses his suspicions. He says it's been hard. She says she loves him and has never strayed from the plan to be with him. He just wants it to be over. She says it will be soon. They make out.  We see Juliet and her family at the courthouse after her testimony. Now they're about to hear Tessa's testimony. Catherine confronts BAS about "one-upping" her in the mom department. BAS says Juliet just wants her to be nice. Catherine says she was trying to protect her. BAS suggests Catherine take her ice-skating and just hang out together. Catherine thanks her for not being a bitch. In the bathroom Juliet tells Tessa that giving the testimony was not that hard. Tessa starts to break down and says she can't do it. Juliet tries to bolster her. Tessa says she lied and that Mr. C never assaulted her. She was just getting back at him for taking Juliet's side in their first fight. Juliet is incredulous that she would accuse a man of sexual assault for this reason. Tessa says she just wanted to hurt him. Tessa runs out and as she does, Juliet's friend Andrea comes out of a stall, having overheard everything.  Back at the apartment the lawyer is explaining they had to drop the case after Tessa's admission, since it's back to he said/she said and Mr. C's reputation is sterling and Juliet's isn't. Oh and Mr. C is suing Andrew for defamation of character. Andrew is angry and says he isn't paying a cent. Andrew wants to countersue. The lawyer advises against this, as does Catherine who says Juliet has already been hurt and needs a fresh start. It's millions of dollars and Andrew doesn't want to settle. Catherine says they've screwed up Juliet's life enough and they shouldn't screw it up more.  Back in the car with Solomon BAS explains she was shaken up the previous day because 9/8/11 was the day her sister died.She says they'd had a falling out but thought she'd forgiven her but was wrong. She says she needs to finish what she started. They pull into an alley. It's he back door of a firing range. The guy behind the counter recognizes her and says she was a pretty good shot for a girl. She checks the key in the lockers.  AS calls Tyler to "explain" that he had a conversation with her "brother." He apologizes and buys her story. He had called the day before because an IT guy is suspicious of his computer activity. He's worried others will notice too and he's not sure how much longer he can do it. She asks him to do it for the baby.  In the locker room she sees Charlie/John's picture on the wall. She snaps a photo with her phone and asks Solomon if she was afraid of him. Solomon says John was her friend. She' s now confused since "Charlie" "introduced" himself at NA. She calls Malcolm and leaves a message with the new intel and realizes if John/Charlie wasn't the killer than perhaps someone is still after her.  Back at the apartment BAS and Andrew snuggle. She asks what he's going to do. He says Catherine thinks he should settle. BAS agrees with Catherine about settling and letting Juliet get a fresh start. Juliet comes home and is happy after a day of ice skating with her mom. Andrew says he'll call the attorneys in the morning. BAS says it's the right thing.  Henry and Arborgast meet with Olivia at the Martin Charles office. Arborgast says the bottom line looks promising. He asks if his money is in good hands. She starts to talk and he interrupts and says he wants to hear it from Henry. Henry says the numbers don't lie. Arborgast says they'll start with a small amount and go from there. He leaves. Olivia lets Henry delete the photo and she says it's the only one. He asks why he should believe her. She says she's opportunistic but not a liar. He drops the whole phone in a pitcher of water.  BAS meets with Solomon again. She tells him she called his former CO and heard he was a real hero. She offers to hire him as a bodyguard saying someone is trying to kill her. She asks for his help. We don't hear his answer.  AS enters the apartment. We know it's her because of how tentative she is. She looks for the key, rifling through drawers and such. She finds it. Andrew comes in. He smiles and says they settled. She says okay. He thanks her for talking him into it and agrees it was the right thing to do. He kisses her. She seem taken aback. He asks if she's okay and says it would be nice if they all had dinner tonight. She simply walks out.  We cut to a hotel room where Tessa and Juliet are hanging out, raiding the minibar. There is a knock. It is Mr. C. They all smile and Tessa says they can't believe they pulled it off. It was all a scam. He asks who wants to toast to being millionaires. They toast and Juliet says "here's to spending Daddy's money."  They proceed to get drunk and congratulate each other on their performances at the courthouse including getting Andrea to squeal. They have another drink and say "to getting your trust fund back."  BAS searches for the key. Andrew asks if she's alright. She says she's fine and just that earlier she was distant as if he'd upset her. She says she's just been distracted. He asks if she's sure and she plants one on him.  AS and Henry go to put stuff in a safe deposit box. She tells Henry she has to go to Paris. He wants to come. She says he has to stay and keep an eye on Bridget. She asks about drinks with Arborgast. He explains about Olivia's blackmail and Arborgast's investment in Martin-Charles. She is aghast and says he should've come to her first.  In Paris, Tyler paces. He has the number of an SEC person in his hand. He calls him and blows the whistle.  BAS and Solomon go back to her secret office and search for clues as to who is trying to kill her. He notices footprints on the carpet. He theorizes a woman planted herself there and was watching her.  AS explains to Henry that his father-in-law is about to lose a lot of money. She opens the safe deposit box which contains some kind fo recording. He puts in an earpiece, listens, looks aghast and says "oh my god!"
