Olivia moved out of Cross Creek and into the house Gus purchased for Natalia. Jeffrey reluctantly left Olivia alone after helping her move a few boxes. Still weak, Liv had difficulty opening the front door, so she phoned for help. A driver picked Liv up and she retreated to her old room at the Beacon, where Cassie offered to get Olivia some assistance. She graciously declined, saying she just needs to rest.
At Company, Josh and Reva shared a laugh while reminiscing over old photos, which they used for inspiration to decide which crazy stories from their pasts should be included in Reva's movie. Hawk showed up, offering to take the duo out to lunch, but Josh declined to go see Cassie. Reva, meanwhile, ran into Harley at Towers and they briefly caught up. Reva dished about the movie; Harley revealed she's planning a fundraising party for a Boys Club in Gus's honor.
At the Cooper household, Cyrus questioned Harley about taking on Josh's
assignment to spy on her BFF Cassie. Harley admitted she's not proud of the
gig, but they need the money. Cyrus suggested he take over the job for her,
especially since he sees Cassie every day while working at the Beacon.
Harley agreed.
Cassie was surprised by a visit from Cyrus, who revealed Josh's plan to spy on her. Cassie was stunned by Josh's behavior, but Cyrus assured her that he's taking care of it. Then they both agreed that their one-time romp was a huge mistake. Later, Josh returned to the farmhouse, but tensions were high as he told Cassie he's not sure he'll ever be able to forgive her for cheating on him. They started to plan a night alone together when Jolene unexpectedly arrived. Cassie was amused when the actress referred to Josh as "Joshua" (just like Reva!). Obviously annoyed by the pesky girl, Josh told her to leave and requested that she ask before stopping by next time. He then stormed out in a huff, leaving a guilt-ridden Cassie behind.
At Cross Creek, Jeffrey gave Reva the scoop on Olivia, saying she left on her own. Reva confessed she's relieved and kissed Jeffrey. Later, Reva paid Olivia a visit at the Beacon. Liv assured Reva that she's okay with the move and knows that Reva and Jeffrey need some alone time. Meanwhile at Company, Jeffrey persuaded Lillian to be Olivia's private nurse.
At the Springfield PD, Daisy suggested to Harley that they take a big family vacation to Europe this summer and encouraged her mom to just have some fun. Harley took Daisy's words to heart and paid Cyrus a visit to say that she wants to give their relationship another shot, but that they need to take things slow. Later, Harley continued to work on Gus's cases and traded barbs with a lazy officer named Wolfe, who happens to be Doris's cousin.
Olivia interviewed potential nurses, but couldn't find a right fit. When Jeffrey later showed up with Lillian in tow, Liv wasn't thrilled. Jeffrey explained that he already hired Lillian to care for Olivia, saying it's for Emma's sake. When Lillian tried to do her job, however, angry Olivia snapped. So, Lillian stormed out. Alone, Olivia nearly collapsed on her way to pick up Emma from school.
On Main Street, Jolene and Reva bonded. Jolene tried to imitate Reva's cackling laugh and asked if there's a vintage store in town, saying she really wants to work on Reva's style from the '80s. Then, Josh showed up and was irritated when Reva spilled to Jolene about his wild days (and about all the women he's bedded).
Cyrus met up with Josh to discuss his case, claiming that the guy Cassie slept with is a visitor from Chicago who stayed at the Beacon. Cyrus assured Josh that Cassie's completely committed to him now, but an unsatisfied Josh demanded to know the guy's name, anyway.
Hawk told Jeffrey that he's moving into Cross Creek.... Jolene phoned Carson to say that she thinks the movie should be about Josh and Reva's love story.

At the Beacon, Lizzie helped Bill prepare for an important meeting regarding what she thinks is the big Spaulding/Lewis business merger. Lizzie was bummed that she wasn't attending, but felt Bill should do it on his own; Bill said her presence wasn't necessary, anyway.
In the Spaulding garden, Dinah wondered why Remy's not accompanying her to the meeting. Remy was more curious about why Dinah (who already has everything she desires) felt the need to be in control of the family company, too. Remy made a dig at Bill, but said he can understand Bill's motive. Dinah explained that she's involved because of Mallet and once she's proven herself to him, he'll surely come running back to her.
At Company, Rafe was impressed by Alan's savvy computer skills. Dressed up in his suit, Alan was eager to get to the big Spaulding meeting and told Rafe that he's determined to "knock'em dead." Alan later crossed paths with Dinah and the corporate rivals traded barbs. Alan warned Dinah to stop while she's ahead.
Ava went over to the Spaulding boardroom and prepped for the meeting. When Bill showed up, he asked her to leave. She was miffed that Bill blew her off. Then Dinah also arrived. She greeted Bill, who reiterated how winning control of Spaulding means everything to him. Dinah asked Bill if he'd told Lizzie what Lewis taking over Spaulding would do to her family. Bill brushed off Dinah's concern, saying that Lizzie knows only what she needs to know.
Remy ran into Lizzie at the pond, where she reminded him that he's still on her payroll for keeping Ava away from Bill. Remy admitted he's kind of attracted to Ava and feels guilty about taking money to be with her. Lizzie encouraged Remy to go for it —— as long as he keeps Ava busy. Later, Lizzie paid Lillian a visit at the hospital and happily gloated about her wonderful romance with Bill.
Back at Spaulding, Alan made himself at home in a small corner office. Dinah spat that he doesn't belong and kicked him out. Meanwhile, the meeting was a huge success for Lewis. Bill assured Dinah that Lizzie's crazy about him and if she really loves him, she'll understand his motive in buying out Spaulding. Then the sibs happily celebrated the takeover.
After the meeting, Ava ran into Lizzie on Main Street and called her out for being so naive. Lizzie refused to believe that Bill lied to her and used her to get inside information on Spaulding for a big takeover. When Ava finally revealed that she overheard Bill and Dinah discussing "smashing Spaulding to smithereens," Lizzie flipped out. Later, Lizzie blasted Bill for lying to her. Bill expressed his love, but Lizzie felt betrayed so she gave him an
ultimatum: Back out of the takeover or it's over. Bill didn't say a word, so Lizzie angrily stormed off.
Rafe asked Natalia why they're staying in Springfield now that Gus is gone; she didn't have an answer. After, Nat stopped by Liv's room at Cedars, pleased to see her feeling better. Alan, who'd just lost everything (again), visited Rafe to help cheer him up. Alan also stopped by Olivia's room, where they reminisced about their desire to take over the world together. Liv admitted that she still feels like dying most of the time.
Remy prevented a depressed Ava from ordering a drink at Towers bar. They retreated to the stairwell for a game of cards and some flirting instead....Dinah shared a heart-to-heart with her little sis Maureen and they threw a surprise party for Bill, who fibbed about why Lizzie wasn't around.... Nat dutifully informed Rafe that they are sticking around Springfield to be near the family they have left.... Lizzie asked Alan to help her win Spaulding back from Bill.

Bill angrily confronted Ava on Main Street about lying to Lizzie about using her to ruin Spaulding. When Ava tried to pull the baby card, a fed-up Bill handed a check over to her and advised her stay out of his sight until after the baby is born, then he stormed off. After, Remy consoled tearful Ava, who confessed she's not ready to be a mother. So, Remy tried to cheer Ava up. They returned to the Spaulding manse to change into some dry clothes (after getting stuck in sprinklers), flirted and had sex. After an awkward post-sex moment, they made plans to meet up the next day.
At Company, Lizzie put on a brave front to talk business with Alan as the duo figured out how many shares of stock they need to win Spaulding back. Lizzie set Alan up with some nice new digs (a condo!) and reassured him that she's in 100 percent on the Spaulding deal. Alan was thrilled. Later, Lizzie privately broke down in tears. Alan, meanwhile, celebrated by smoking a stogie at the lunch counter (much to Buzz's chagrin). Alan shared his good news, asking Buzz how much he owes for the hospitality; Buzz refused to take Spaulding's cash. When Alan asked for some advice on how to operate his fancy new Blackberry, an amused Buzz deadpanned, "Alan, I still use pay phones."
Dinah hung out with Mallet on one of his stakeouts, where she proudly told him about her big Spaulding win and that she's teaching little Maureen everything she knows. When Mallet rejected Dinah's request for a booty call later that night, she tried to seduce him on the spot by stripping down in the backseat of the squad car. It didn't work.
Bill held a televised press conference regarding the big buy-out, admitting that he does have some regrets. He later returned home to his room at the Beacon to find Lizzie's belongings gone. She did, however, leave a note and a section of her beloved dollhouse behind for him. Meanwhile, Lizzie told Beth that she and Bill broke up. The exes later met at the park, where Lizzie handed over Bill's room key. Bill tried be cute and plead his case, but Lizzie wasn't having it and walked off. Lizzie met up with Beth, who offered up a spare room at the Bauer house. Beth was shocked that Alan hadn't shared the news that he moved out of the boarding house.
Back at Company, Alan packed up his belongings. He and Buzz agreed to keep their weekly poker game going, even after he moves out. Dinah and Mallet, who'd arrived for lunch, were stunned that Alan's already back on his feet. Dinah chided Mallet for offering Alan a ride to his new place, then rubbed her success in Spaulding's face. When Mallet asked Alan directions to his new place, Alan suddenly changed his mind about moving, saying the boarding house is still his home (for now at least). Later, Alan made an excuse to Buzz about wanting to return. They listened to opera and played cards.
At the Bauer house, Lizzie hung out in her new room. Then Bill, who was standing outside her window, called and begged Lizzie to come outside to talk to him. When Lizzie refused, Bill decided to stay and wait it out. Desperate, Bill pulled a Lloyd Dobber (a la Say Anything!) and raised a boom box above his head blaring a sweet love song to lure Lizzie down. She was touched by the gesture and headed downstairs, but when she got outside Bill (who'd answered a business call just moments before) was already gone.

Everyone in town helped Harley at Company prepare for her big fundraising event, which will help launch the Springfield Boys Club in Gus's honor. Harley was nervous and overwhelmed, but assured Cyrus that things would be better after the event when she's not so distracted. Natalia, meanwhile, felt out of
place and decided not to go to the event until Buzz and Frank stopped by to pick her up (and recruit her to help wait tables). Frank was especially sweet to Nat, who's depressed about living in the boarding house and anxious about greeting all of Gus's closest friends and family at the party. They made small talk, and Frank complained about his new digs at the Springfield
Inn. (Nat still hasn't clued in to the fact that he gave up his place at the boarding house so she and Rafe could move in!)
Marina whined to Frank about everyone pandering to her poor Aunt Harley (including Mallet), while Coop listened in and took notes for his next book. When Frank revealed to Marina that Harley and Cyrus split and surmised that Cyrus would come running back to Marina, she assured her pop she wouldn't let that happen. Later, a dolled-up Marina was surprised when Mallet came by to pick her up for the fundraiser.
Ashlee tried on several dresses for the party, unhappy with all of them. She later told Coop she feels too tired to attend. Harley, meanwhile, also frantically dressed for the big event and suddenly broke down in tears.
Back at Company, the tension between Daisy and Cyrus continued as the party began. She wondered if he's going back Down Under now that he's been kicked out of the Cooper household, but Cyrus smirked that he's not planning to go anywhere. As everyone chatted inside, Daisy left to find an emotional Harley, who decided to attend at the last minute.
Back at the event, Nat talked an angry Frank down after he spied Marina conversing with Cyrus. Marina, meanwhile, admitted to Cyrus she's stunned that he's not with Harley anymore, then said she still cares about him. Cyrus quickly corrected his ex, saying that he and Harley are just taking things slow these days but that they're still together. Later, Blake tried to bond with Nat (within earshot of wary Frank) and suggested she try online
dating.
Ashlee ran into Daisy and confided in her that she's tired of everyone worrying about her and sick of herself for obsessing about her post-surgery looks just because it's not working as fast as she had hoped. To cheer her friend up, Daisy gave Ashlee a fake ID. They went to Towers for a drink and proceeded to get completely wasted.
After the party, Mallet took Marina upstairs and helped her out of her dress. They both griped about Harley's cheating ways and wound up in an unexpected lip lock. Later, Nat ran upstairs and walked in on Mallet and Marina half-dressed on the couch together. Nat quickly covered to an inquiring Frank, who was worried about his daughter. After, Mallet and Marina shared an awkward moment, but agreed to continue their rendezvous later.
Coop greeted a very intoxicated Ashlee, warning her that she's not supposed to be drinking so soon after the surgery. Ashlee revealed she's writing letters to everyone in her life who's been mean to her but quickly tore up the letters, saying they don't matter because Coop still loves her just the ways she is.... Daisy returned to the party, where Buzz noticed she was drunk. He promised to keep quiet.... Harley and Cyrus shared a sweet chat at the gazebo and kissed.

Annoyed Lizzie woke up to baby Peyton crying. Beth apologized, then asked Lizzie to look after her little sis while she attends a parent/teacher conference for James.
At Lewis, Bill ran to the florist after suddenly remembering Mother's Day, but the shop was closed. Meanwhile, Marina phoned Eleni to wish her a happy Mother's Day, then bumped into Remy at the pond. He'd also forgotten about Mother's Day and hurried off to Main Street where he saw depressed Ava, who
admitted she still feels helpless when it comes to Olivia's recovery.
Back at the Bauer house, Lizzie had just put Peyton back to sleep when Bill showed up unannounced (with flowers and chocolates), greeted Lizzie loudly and woke up the baby. Lizzie tried to kick Bill out, but he wouldn't leave her alone so she drove off with Peyton in tow.
Dinah and Mallet prepared for a the big public announcement of the Back to the Beat community outreach program at the Springfield PD. Then Matt suddenly arrived to talk construction and landscaping at the Spaulding manse with Dinah. Mallet and Matt shared an awkward moment. Later, Mallet and Marina flirt/fought over the new case filing system. Marina urged Mallet to practice his speech for the upcoming Back to the Beat event.
Marina ran into Remy and was surprised when he revealed that he's got the hots for Ava. Marina encouraged her pal to do something special for Ava if he really does like her. So, Remy met Ava, who was happily noshing on some french fries, on the roof of some random building. Remy told Ava he likes her and tried to offer her some advice about eating healthy during pregnancy. Ava was touched by Remy's concern, then she suddenly puked over
the ledge (from the french fries!). They laughed it off and Remy gave Ava a big hug.
Dinah and Bill bickered over the phone about who should buy Vanessa a Mother's Day card and sign it first (clearly they also forgot), then Bill eyed Lizzie's dog Roxy chowing down on some chocolates, which are totally lethal for pooches. He panicked, took Roxy to the vet and saw Mallet, who begged Bill to get Dinah to back off of Spaulding.
At the nail salon, Dinah crossed paths with a Spaulding shareholder, who revealed that Bill skipped out on a meeting with him earlier. After, Dinah and Marina bickered at the Back to the Beat event, where Remy later caused a fiasco by running naked through the gathered crowd (a bet he had with Ava, apparently). Mallet and Marina were amused; Dinah was miffed.
Lizzie rushed to the vet clinic and was horrified when she saw her beloved Roxy on the exam table. She was relieved that Bill had the
foresight to get the dog care, but blasted Bill for poisoning Roxy in the first place. Bill hoped saving the dog would be enough to win Lizzie back; it wasn't. Later, however, Bill and Lizzie shared a sweet moment together. Lizzie refused to reconcile and urged Bill not to let fatherhood pass him by. Having a change of heart, Bill then found Ava on Main Street, asking if he can have a list of her scheduled doctor's appointments so he can be there for her and their baby. Stunned Remy, meanwhile, watched from afar.
Dinah shared her plan to save up money to Mallet, who said he's proud of her. Then Dinah revealed she's planning to construct a mini-golf course on the mansion grounds.
