At Newman Enterprises, J.T. tried to help Brad log onto the company's board member Web site. Victor informed Brad that he'd blocked Brad's access and wanted him out of the company. Brad wasn't planning to leave so easily. After, Victoria blamed herself for bringing Brad into the business.

Nikki was thrilled that the "Men We Love" issue of Restless Style was the highest-selling issue to date. She informed Paul that the next issue was going to be a tribute to Katherine. After, Paul asked Kevin and Daniel at Crimson Lights if they had more information on the woman claiming to be Kay. He explained that he wanted to get to the truth. They told him that Kay has been staying with a man named Murphy. Paul didn't want Nikki to catch on to the fact that he was investigating the Kay case, so he pretended to be discussing something else.... Amber stopped by Murphy's trailer to see Kay. She was surprised that Kay would stay in such quarters, but Kay said that she loved it there. Kay again lamented not being able to recall her life; Amber urged her to see a doctor. Kay replied that she did and the doctor just found a bump on her head. Murphy clarified that the doctor told her to see a specialist. Kay admitted that she was frightened about seeing one. Murphy went and made an appointment for her, but Kay still refused to do it. Amber promised to be there for her if she got bad news from the doctor. "You're such a good girl," said a touched Kay. "You really don't remember," cracked Amber. As Kay went to get ready, Amber called Daniel and filled him in on what was going on with Kay. Daniel, in turn, gave the news to Kevin about Kay seeing a doctor. Daniel asked if Kevin would help them with the Kay situation, but Kevin was still insulted about Amber thinking he was a murderer. Daniel urged him to put his feelings aside, for Kay's sake.

Brad enjoyed a father/daughter lunch with Abby and Colleen. He suggested that the three of them go on a vacation. When Abby started going on about the horse Victor bought her, Brad reminded her that he'll give Abby anything she needs.... Victor surprised Ashley when he arrived for Abby's parent-teacher conference.... Brad was taken aback when Abby told him about the conference and prepared to attend... At the school, Abby's principal was surprised when Victor introduced himself as Abby's father.

At the GCAC, Colleen and Abby admired photos of J.T. from the "Men We Love" issue. Abby declared J.T. hot and thought it was "tragic" that things hadn't worked out with him and Colleen. Just then, J.T. and Victoria entered the restaurant. Colleen jokingly asked him for his autograph and warned him that Abby has a crush on him.... Nikki arrived and gushed about the issue. Victoria was happy to see her mom smiling. They then agreed that they were bothered by Victor's "insta-family" with Ashley and Abby. Nikki didn't think he and Ashley would last.

Ashley and Victor got down to business, discussing Abby's academic record with the principal. Brad soon arrived and insisted on joining them. After they finished the meeting, Brad told off Victor right in the principal's office. Ash pleaded with Victor to understand that Brad is also Abby's father. Later, Brad returned to his daughters at the GCAC. Brad wanted them both to move back home, but neither was thrilled with the idea. Abby said that she loved the Newman ranch, while Colleen liked having her freedom. When Ash came to pick up Abby, she told Brad that she's not going to stand by and watch him and Victor fight over her daughter. After, Brad made a call, explaining that he wanted to file for full custody of Abby.... Victor requested that J.T. find something about Brad that would be grounds for his dismissal. Privately, J.T. reminded Victoria that Brad stole Newman trade secrets for Jabot, but she noted that they'd signed a contract saying they wouldn't use that evidence against him.

Murphy and Amber helped Kay get ready for the doctor's appointment. Meanwhile, Paul lurked outside the trailer and peered in, watching them. He flashed back to how upset Nikki had been when he'd brought up the idea of investigating Kay to see if she really was an imposter. Paul ignored his reservations and knocked on Murphy's door, explaining he was from the census bureau. Murphy explained that it was his home but he'd had a friend living them since November. Paul had him sign some forms then said he'd like to interview Murphy's friend when he returned.... Meanwhile, the doctor questioned "Marge" about her condition. She admitted that she's been forgetting names and faces. The doctor was concerned and wanted to run some tests on her — but Kay realized she didn't have insurance. Amber offered to cover the costs. She wanted to return all of the money Kay had left her, but Kay told her to keep it for now. Later, the doctor explained that he was checking for several things that would affect her memory — including signs of Alzheimer's Disease. Amber tried to be optimistic and not worry about that yet.... Paul joined Nikki at the GCAC and told her about his visit to Murphy. Paul believed that Murphy was a stand-up guy, but Nikki disagreed. Paul then said that he wants to talk to the woman saying she's Kay — and wanted Nikki to come with him. Nikki absolutely refused to believe that Kay was alive. "Don't you want to find out for sure?" he asked. Nikki reluctantly agreed to do it for Paul.
