Plot Overview

Rachel tells Ruby she did okay for her first night and adds that this place won't break her. At the hospital, Olivia and Russ discuss Tracy's upcoming out-of-town engagements. Russ tells Olivia that he wishes Tracy wasn't out of town so much with Chicago next week and New York the week after. Miranda tells Kit that Mac and Amanda are coming over for dinner. Then Miranda tells Kit that Jerry is on his way here. Jerry tells Kit that Amy quit her job and that she claims she made up the whole story about Brad. Then Jerry asks Kit to dinner and she accepts. Brad brings flowers and a pin to apologize to Amy for his abominable behavior. Brad tells Amy that he was on some drugs and so he couldn't control himself when he got angry with her. Amy tells Brad that it is okay and that she hasn't told anyone about it. Philip asks Pat how she is doing and tells her that he tried to see her last night but she didn't answer her phone. Pat makes excuses to Philip and Philip apologizes for coming on too strong with Pat. Then Mac enters and thanks them both for all their help. Cecile is the next one to enter and welcome Mac back. Pat tells Mac she plans to leave work in a week or so but Mac tells her that with Amy quitting she is still needed. In prison, Ruby talks to Rachel about the baby and Rachel tells her that she is giving it to some good friends of hers to raise. Tracy tells Russ that she has enrolled them in the parenting class. Then Russ leaves when Olivia enters and she tells Tracy that there is someone she should watch out for. Olivia tells Tracy that Liz doesn't seem too happy about her still having a career. Olivia also tells Tracy that she is envious of her for being able to manage everything so well. Jamie talks to Mac and tells him that he doesn't know what he feels right now. Mac tells him that he still thinks of him as his son and nothing has changed as far as that goes. Mac also informs Jamie of the fact that he plans to do all he can to prove that Rachel is innocent. Mac asks Jamie if he and Cecile are getting back together but Jamie says he hasn't thought about it. Then Cecile enters and Jamie tells her that Mac has many good things to say about her. Mac tells Cecile that he is concerned about Jamie and also asks her if she thinks she and Jamie may get back together. Cecile tells Mac that she doesn't think it will happen. Then she suggests that Mac have dinner with her later in the week. Amy visits Kit to say good-bye and tells her that she made up the whole story about Brad being in a mental institution. Kit forgives Amy and tells her that she isn't in love with Jerry. Then Miranda enters and says good-bye to Amy. At dinner, Jerry encourages Kit to try to talk to the head nurse again about getting her nursing job back. After dinner Mac thanks Miranda for a wonderful night. Mac also tells Miranda that he is going to find a way to prove that Rachel is innocent. Miranda tells Mac that she believes him. Ruby asks Rachel how day one went and suggests she start mixing with the other girls. Then Ruby starts to tell Rachel about her friend Sue and how her and her boyfriend robbed the city blind and left in a camper the same night Rachel shot her boyfriend. Before Sue can say any more she has to leave.
