After hearing from Rex, Blair decides to head for Tahiti to speak with Ross herself on Monday, August 24. Meanwhile Téa, a bundle of nerves after a phone call from Ross, manages to stand her ground with Elijah. Marty gains new insight into her relationship with John, during her therapy session with Todd. Later, Todd returns home to find Téa with her backs packed. Unable to let the woman he loves simply walk out of his life, Todd is honest with Téa concerning his feelings for her on Tuesday, August 25.

Across town, Blair rejects Dorian’s requests that she let the matter drop, and prepares to board a plane for the tropical island paradise.

A Closer Look: An Identity Crisis
Schuyler confides in Gigi how he truly feels about her. Sitting her sights on an emotionally vulnerable Schuyler, Stacy plots to drug and seduce her old flame. On Tuesday, August 25, reeling from the affects of the drug Stacy slipped him, Schuyler remains lucid enough to hold her at bay and proclaim his love for Gigi. Meanwhile, Rex and Gigi have a heated argument, which quickly turns passionate. Layla thinks Fish to be gay and that Cristian knows more than he’s saying after bumping into Nick at the gym. When pressed by Layla, Cristian admits that he observed Fish and Kyle kissing. Wondering what in the hell is going on, Layla calls Fish and tells him that they need to have a little chat on Wednesday, August 26. At the same time, Stacy sees no other viable often left, and decides to tell Rex and Gigi the truth about her miscarriage. Kim tags along to provide Stacy with moral support. By Thursday, August 27, Kim doesn’t like how Gigi and Shane are treating Stacy, and prevents her from confessing. Instead, Kim warns Rex and Gigi that Stacy and her baby aren’t leaving Llanview. Later, as she is drinking alone at Rodi’s, Stacy spots a depressed Fish. The next morning, Fish awakens to find himself in Stacy’s bed. As if his discovery wasn’t enough to make him miserable, he soon remembers his run-in with Kyle the previous evening. Fish gathers his nerve and heads home to face the music on Friday, August 28, just as Cristian gives Layla a shoulder to cry on.
