Tad tells Joe about the situation with Jamie and Jeff who are off in the Congo, overdue, there's guerrilla activity, etc. They are not really considered to be in danger at the moment, but David has arranged for Tad to be told that they are. Tad, of course, is going to go over there to rescue them, single-handedly. Joe says he'll fill in Ruth and Opal about the situation. That's nice. What about Brooke? What do you mean "Brooke who?" You know, Jamie's MOTHER???

Greenlee calls Ryan to tell him that Annie is being moved to Oakhaven today and is not taking it very well. Ryan says he'll be right there, and he is ... with EMMA in tow. WTF? Why on earth would he bring a little child where she might see her homicidal, deeply disturbed mother who is currently hysterical about being treated like a crazy person?

Tad tells Krystal about the situation with Jamie and Jeff and how he has to go and she says he can't go (because if he's not there, she will probably have sex with David -- as if she's not going to do that anyway, even if Tad IS there). She doesn't express the slightest concern for Jamie or Jeff, though; she only whines briefly about being left alone with the kids for so long. She relents, realizing he has to go. What IS it with this woman? She spends the first year or more of her marriage trying desperately not to give in and have sex with Adam and now she's desperately trying not to give in and have sex with David. And she's depressed (rightly so). Can't that woman make ANY decisions without consulting her CROTCH first?

Then Krystal has an anxiety attack. Does she call 911? No. Does she call her best friend who also happens to be a doctor? No. Does she call a neighbor to stay with the kids until help arrives? No. Does she call Joe or Ruth, her in-laws who love her? No. She calls ... wait for it ... David. She's acting like she's in withdrawal, though, especially with the nervous arm rubbing and the comment about hoping that warm milk would help, but it didn't (the warm milk she made didn't, anyway). He's getting her addicted to something. It's drug-based, but he's going to convince her that it's him she's addicted to.
