Alexis comes down her stairs, smelling breakfast cooking.  When she asks who made breakfast, Julian stands up – he says, he’s a free man… where else would he be?  She is relieved when she wakes up on the couch and realizes it was all a dream; there are several empty bottles of wine on the coffee table.  Sam comes over to see her and tells her she looks terrible, pointing out three bottles of wine.  

Nina comes into the office to find Julian sitting in her chair (this is not a dream); he says he is going to take back what is his; Nina is stunned.  He claims, then, that it’s the budget.  She tells him that she has proof he tried to sabotage the magazine and she will turn him in for it, if he tries to shut it down again; he says it’s going to be interesting to work with her again.  Morgan tells Kiki he decided not to go to the funeral because he doesn’t feel like he could trust himself not to lose it; Kiki talks to Dillon.  Dillon tells her she is incredibly crazy fun to be around and a really good friend; he wishes she wouldn’t pull away so much… and he suggests that she reach out to Michael, about Sabrina.  

Nelle made a memorial website for Sabrina, for Micheal …Michael tells Nelle that adding pictures with Teddy on the site would be a good thing, so he could go back and look at it someday, to see how close he was with his mother.  Paul tells Tracy that he is the reason Sabrina is dead (she doesn’t believe him, or doesn’t think he is speaking literally); he looks like he is in shock.  She tells him it is natural to feel responsible; he feels like he should have caught the killer… (of course, she doesn’t even conceive that he IS the killer).  Dillon comes and tells her that when he told his dad about her, he acted real funny, almost like it was personal.  Tracey all of the sudden says she knows what it is; but she is thinking it is just that Sabrina is about the same age as his daughter, Susan.  

She asks Dillon to reach out to Susan.  Sonny talks with Jason about Julian; Jason tries to tell him not to do anything.  He says Julian is too much of a chicken to make a move; he thinks Sonny should just lay low, and apologizes for not being able to help.  Alexis tells Sam that she is going to make some calls and get herself a job consulting, since she has lost her license for a year.  She also promises Sam that she will stop drinking; she starts making calls… after many hours of trying to explain herself to potential employers, she gives up, and takes a bottle of wine to soak in the tub.  She comes own the stairs to see Julian (really and truly) sitting in the living room, waiting for her.
