Alex walks with Daria and Leo.

"So how is he?" Daria asked.

"He's getting better" Alex said. "He's only been on the pills for a few days and he's already walking around. Well more like limping around but he's getting there."

Daria and Leo share a worried look.

"Are you sure he's taking his medication right?" Daria asked. "I mean he did say he could go back into his old ways."

"There is no way" Alex said.

"Maybe Daria is right" Leo said. "I mean maybe you should talk to him and make sure he's not over using."

Alex stared at them. He wanted to trust Tyler. But he knew Daria could be right.


In New York, Jude opens his door to see Connor.

"Connor? What are you doing here?" Jude asked.

"I need to talk to you" Connor said.

Connor took a deep breath.

"I still want to marry you" Connor told Jude. "Please don't give up on us. I love you..."

Jude stared at Connor. Connor tried to stay hopeful then he seen Jonas exit Jude's room.

"Hey babe I'm taking a shower" Jonas called to Jude. Jonas walked off.

Connor felt heartbroken.

"So are you and him back together?" Connor asked.

Jude shrugged.

"What?" Connor snapped. "Do you not know?"

"It's none of your business" Jude snapped. "Maybe you should go home."

"I'm not going home until we talk" Connor said. "And we will talk. I don't care how long I have to stay in New York I will."


Alex dug through Tyler's drawers. He pulled out the pill bottle and seen it half empty. He realized too many were gone. Tyler then walked in.

"What are you doing?" Tyler asked. "Why are you going through my stuff?"

Alex holds up the pill bottle.

"Why is this half empty?" Alex snapped. "Tyler there should be more than this."

"I know how it looks" Tyler said. "But it's not what you think."

Alex stared at Tyler and crossed his arms.

"Then explain" Alex said.

Tyler just stared unable to come up with anything. Alex tolled his eyes. He stormed out of the room. Tyler chased after Alex.

"Alex wait!" Tyler begged.


In New York, Jude has lunch with Connor.

"So this is good food" Connor said. "You eat here a lot?"

"Yeah" Jude said.

Connor nodded.

"So what's with you and Jonas?" Connor asked.

"Nothing is wrong with hooking up" Jude replied.  "I mean I am single after all."

"Why won't you forgive me?" Connor asked. "I mean you and me have been through so much together. Is it really fair to end what we have?"

"Yeah" Jude said. "I think it is. I'd be lying if I said I didn't love you. But I can't do this again. I'm too screwed up right now."
