Robert attacks Henry and puts him in a headlock, but Henry bites Robert's arm and is able to fight him off and escape. He sneaks over to the McAllister house and tells Lily what happened. Robert comes over at the same time, and commiserates with Catherine, who tells him about the collapse of her marriage. They agree that they must kill Henry to protect the family's secrets. Henry tells Tom that Robert attacked him, but asks him to go to work and act as though nothing has happened while he and Lily retrieve the evidence. Charlie orders Lily to forget about the tapes. He knows that revealing the truth would destroy both of their families, and will have no part in it. He insists that they shouldn't care about exacting justice for Meredith Weller's death, because it happened long ago and they didn't know her. Lily sneaks out of class to break into the Darwell house with Henry. She is reluctant, but Henry reminds her that he will be on the run for the rest of his life unless her family is exposed. Unfortunately, big mouth Jennie tells Charlie that Lily has left campus. He races over to the house. Henry gets away, but Lily hesitates when he asks her to pass him the tapes through the window. She freezes, and lets Charlie take the tapes and destroy them. Henry is furious. Lily later comes over and apologizes. She promises to get a confession on tape. Tom tries to keep his cool around Robert, but snaps when Robert acts like a jerk over a mistake in his lunch order. Robert presses Tom to admit that he has seen Henry. Tom calls him a murderer, and brags that Henry has the evidence to bring him down. Robert slams Tom into a desk, where he hits his head and dies. Robert tries to hide the body, particularly after his father tells him that he is about to become the new publisher. Robert recruits a horrified Nate to help him bury the body after work. They go to Beth's apartment and break the news to her. Catherine tries to convince Will to come home. He has realized what a disturbed and dangerous person she is, and that their whole life has been a lie. Catherine pleads with George for help getting her "normal" life back, noting that he "owes [her] that much." George threatens to fire Will and have him blackballed unless he re-considers. Will lashes out at Catherine and says that he is going to get the kids away from her. Catherine files a restraining order against Will, charging physical abuse. The cops drag him away as Lily and Mason look on. Add a recap »
