Rick visits Taylor and whines that Nick is the only man who can keep his mother away from Ridge, and he is for the relationship. Brooke listens in on Rick's conversation that Nick belongs with his mom, and Brooke sends him away. Brooke candidly tells Taylor that she knows she's not pregnant. As Taylor grows anxious, and an argument seems imminent, Brooke confides that she needs help with a bigger problem between Rick and Ridge. Brooke brings up ancient history of a time when Ridge protected Rick years ago after he shot Grant Chambers, one of Brooke's many former husbands although the ceremony may not have been legal because a sea captain (of questionable repute) officially tied the knot. Anyways, for some reason, Rick decided to shoot Grant, and Ridge took the blame, and now Brooke thinks it might be time to remind Rick of this little gem of truth that he has apparently zipped out of his memory banks – for years and years. Taylor says it could be devastating for Rick, but Brooke presses on that she thinks he's ready to hear the truth – about something of which he has no memory whatsoever. At any rate, Grant is long dead having passed away from cancer after marrying Macy (Sally Spectra's daughter) at some point.

At Forrester Originals, Shane, who appears to be nuttier than a fruitcake, seems to hold Ridge hostage threatening to shoot, but Ridge calmly tries to talk Shane out of violence and almost seems to convince him to calm down by telling him that Phoebe will never get over his terrorist tactics if something were to happen to either of them. Ridge refuses to let Shane fall into a self-pity party as they banter about how Ridge can't possibly understand how Shane feels right now – poverty stricken and all, but Ridge tells him he has fallen on hard times himself since he should be celebrating his honeymoon with Brooke, but it just didn't work out. Ridge offers to help Shane with all the counseling he needs, but he must put the gun down. As they talk, Shane seems to snap and threatens to kill himself as Ridge intervenes. A struggle ensues, and the gun goes off. In Ashley's office, Stephanie chats with Ashley and says how glad she is to hear that Ash has a dinner date with Ridge. Ash maintains they are only friends, but as they talk, a noise breaks the calm at Forrester Originals – just as the gun goes off during the Ridge and Shane struggle.

Ridge goes to call 911, and remembers when he was in court for the shooting of Grant. Ridge panics, suspecting the judge won't let him off this time, even though it was another accident. Ridge stuffs Shane's body into a garment bag and heads for the Marina, where he takes the body out on the Shady Marlin 2. Meanwhile, Stephanie has been following Ridge, unaware that he's carrying Shane's dead body. Ridge throws the gun in Shane's bag, along with an anchor, and dumps the body overboard. However, some of Shane's hair gets caught on the deck.
