Paul Learns of Meg and Dusty's Marriage

Paul calls Meg at the farm and asks her if he can see Eliza. She says it's not a good time, but at his persistence, she says she'll figure it out. Dusty reassures Meg he will keep her safe from Paul. She is worried about how Paul will react when he finds out she and Dusty have gotten married.

Jade tells Luke she feels bad about mooching off his mom without helping out. He suggests she get a job, and they look on Craigslist for job listings. Jade finds a job listing for an assistant position that requires no experience, but Luke tells her not to take it because Emily is so cruel to her assistants. Jade decides to apply for it anyway.

At the hospital, Casey asks Ali if she wants to go have dinner and listen to some music later. She tells him she doesn't want to be more than friends. Casey asks her why she can't just let things happen as they may and she finally admits that Emily has asked her to stay away from Casey. Casey is angry and leaves to confront Emily.

Paul is surprised when Dusty shows up with Eliza. He wonders where Meg is and why Dusty has brought Eliza. Dusty tells Paul he and Meg got married. Paul insists they couldn't have due to the divorce not being final, but Dusty tells him everything has been taken care of. Paul is not pleased. He gets Dusty to hand him Eliza and then tells Dusty the only way he will ever be able to touch Eliza again is if he pries her out of Paul's cold, dead hands.

Meg meets with a real estate agent at the Lakeview. She is excited with some of the prospects she is shown. She gets up to leave and runs into Josie. The real estate agent calls Meg back because she forgot her folder. Josie wonders what is going on, and Meg informs her she and Dusty got married. Josie is clearly upset by it, but denies she is hurt. Josie asks if anyone has told Paul, and Meg tells her Dusty offered to do so for her. Josie insists that both Paul and Dusty are obsessed with Meg.

Jade meets with Emily for an interview. Emily is not impressed at all by Jade's resume and makes several snide comments. While Emily is on her cell phone, the office phone rings. Jade answers it and takes a message. She thinks she's done something well, but Emily yells at her for not getting the man's number. Jade storms out of the interview. As she does so, she sees Casey go into Emily's office and slam the door.

Luke visits Ali at the hospital. He wants to know if she'll give Jade a reference for the job Emily is offering. Alison says she would, but she and her sister are on the outs. Luke asks if Casey is the problem and Alison admits he is. She tells Luke Emily has asked her to not date Casey, but Luke encourages her to go for it because Casey might be the right guy for her. Luke takes Alison up to the roof, reminding her that being locked on the roof with Noah helped get them back together. He tells Alison to come back in a little while and he'll have Casey there; he says the rest is up to her.

Casey yells at Emily and tells her to get out of his life. He demands to know why Emily cares who he dates when she is the one who ended their relationship. He storms out of the office and runs into Jade. Emily offers Jade a new job. She wants to pay Jade to go after Casey and to keep him away from Alison. Even though Emily offers to double the money, Jade turns her down. Emily offers to triple the money and Jade says she'll think about it and will get back to her.

Josie walks in on Dusty and Paul. She asks Dusty not to call the cops. Then, she convinces Paul to give Eliza back to Dusty. Josie assures Dusty this situation won't happen again and Dusty leaves. After he's gone, Josie and Paul commiserate about Meg and Dusty's marriage. Paul says he refuses to give up on Meg and that he has a plan to get Dusty back before he knows what hit him.

Luke calls Jade and asks her if she knows where Casey is. She says he's at Java. Luke asks her to bring Casey to the hospital roof so that he can get Casey and Alison together to work out their issues. Jade goes into Java and flatters Casey with a bunch of compliments when he confides in her about his troubles with Ali. When Casey goes to get them a couples of lattes, Jade calls Emily and tells her that she will take the job and she has already started.

Ali waits on the roof for Casey.

Dusty meets Meg back at the farm. Meg wonders how everything went at Paul's. Dusty tells her Paul didn't want him there, but he tells her it ended fine. He also tells her Josie came to Fairwinds, and Meg says she talked with Josie as well. She wonders if Josie will be all right, but Dusty says he'll deal with Josie after the hearing for Johnny.
