REVA is at ALAN's house begging him to tell her what he knows about Annie. She accuses him of hating her so much for not reciprocating his love that he'd lie just to hurt her. Reva accuses Alan of helping Annie send her on the wild goose chase to look for her sister, and though he doesn't deny or admit it, he says it is irrelevant to the case being tried. Reva says it's not; that it would demonsrate the lengths to which Annie would go to keep her and Josh apart. She pleads with him to help. She attempts to appeal to Alan's sense of decency.

MATT and VANESSA talk online all night. He relates the story of a book "The English Patient" (a lovestory) . They are surprised at how much they have in common and how easy it was to stay up all night "talking" on the computer. DINAH shows up at Matt's house with Hart, angry that Matt stood them up at the Club -- He was supposed to meet them for a blind date and didn't show! Dinah chides Matt for "talking to a babe in a box" instead of going on a real date with a live woman. Meanwhile, Vanessa's physical therapist gives her grief over getting involved with a guy on the computer who "could be crazy." He points out that she doesn't really know this guy and that he only tells her what he wants her to know. Vanessa gets defensive and tells him to butt out! Dinah drives her point home by grabbing and kissing Hart. She then asks Matt, "Can you do that with Tess? (Vanessa)" Matt gets the point and promises to call the woman he stood up, smooth things over, and arrange another date. Dinah is satisfied.
Bill unknowingly talks to his mom via the Internet when "Tess" tries to contact "Robert" to meet her in the poetry chatroom.
Reva's preliminary hearing starts to find out if there is enough evidence to take the case to trial in the "shoving" of Annie down the steps and causing Annie to miscarry her child.

In the courtroom, Annie is asked to testify about what happened and tries to throw in about Reva acting "crazy" and going "berserk" at which time the judge reminds her to just stick to the facts. When Ross asks her if the person who "pushed" her down the stairs is in the courtroom, Annie dramatically "points" the finger to Reva.
When Josh testified, he said he came upon Reva and Annie at the end of their argument and only saw Annie falling down the steps. The next witness was Blake who testified that she was paying so much attention to other things at the party (namely Ross's being named the new D.A.) she really did not notice things that were going on with Reva and Annie. Abby, Phillip, and Rick also testified. The prosecution rests.
Bill goes to Michelle with two names - on of which was the recipient of Maureen's heart. She tries to explain to Bill why finding this person is so important.

Bill and Michelle get to the courthouse in search of her mom's heart recipient Cynthia Richardson.
It is the defense's turn to call their witnesses. Their first witness is Alan Spaulding. Griffin asks Alan to recall events that occurred several days before Annie's fall in which Reva got into a heated argument with Alan and Annie about duping her into believing that Annie was her sister. Before Alan answers, he remembers sitting on the porch with Annie and er telling him how much he means to her and how much of a friend he has become to her. She also told him she wishes Josh could be more like him. When Griffin asks him again to tell the court what happened, Alan answers "he does not recall" the incident.
