Mark and Ruby ride through Manhattan to Times Square where a billboard declares Mark's love for Ruby. Vicky and Hunt arrive and tell Sgt. Albertson that her daughter is one of the hostages. George announces that it is 6:50 P.M. and taunts each of the hostages before telling Grant to get on his knees and beg. Grant tells George he won't beg. Then Judith tells George to shoot her because he has already ruined her life but Reena talks him out of it. Then George hears Maggie telling him to kill them and he says he will soon. Paige tells T.J. she has to go in and talk to George and then Brette walks into the hallway and they tell her that George has a gun on Grant, Reena and Judith. Paige says she knows she can talk to George. Ruby and Lurlene talk and she shows Lurlene her nightgown. Ruby tells Lurlene she is nervous about tonight. Then she tells Lurlene that she sees sex as a barometer. Lurlene confides that she is nervous about her wedding night too. Paige prepares to enter with T.J. covering her. As George gets ready to shoot Grant, Paige enters and George thinks she is Maggie and she tell him to wait. As Mark is about to call his parents, Ruby enters in her nightgown and then she notices that Mark has the word "always" engraved in her ring and he says he will love her always. Just as George is about to shoot Grant, T.J. shoots George and he falls to the ground. The police enter and then George fires his gun at Grant and Judith gets in front of the bullet and is shot. Reena comes out to tell Vicky and Hunt that Judith has been shot and she thinks George is dying. So Hunt tells the police he is a priest and would like to go inside the office. Hunt comforts Paige and then George remembers telling Maggie that he will take care of her the rest of his life. He thinks Paige is Maggie and tells her she shouldn't have hurt Paige because he loves Paige and she is the only friend he has. George then realizes it is Paige and that she is all right and tells her he always meant to take care of her. Then the paramedics arrive to take care of Judith and George. Joel and Lurlene share an intimate moment and he almost takes her to bed but then tells her they have waited this long so he can wait a little longer.
