[edit] Synopsis

My name is Victoria Winters. Up until last night I thought of the Great House of Collinwood as a home, then one night it became a prison. Yet that one night of imprisonment might have given me a clue to my identity; the real reason I was at Collinwood.

Vicki remembers the portrait at the Evans' Cottage of Betty Hanscombe and ties some threads together. Carolyn is skeptical; Vicki calls Sam. Carolyn realizes that Vicki thinks Betty might have been her mother and tries to get her to ask Liz about it. Vicki is reluctant. Instead she asks for a few days off, starting this afternoon, to forget about the horror and take some time for herself. Liz grants it, pleased that Vicki's no longer leaving Collinwood for good. Liz wonders why David's had the sudden turnaround.

Carolyn calls Burke from the Hotel Coffee Shop. Vicki and Carolyn talk about fairy godmothers as they enjoy their coffee. Carolyn tells Vicki that Mr. Richard Garner is a very nice old man who will likely help her. Burke joins them and Carolyn tells him about Vicki's Malloy-sighting. He offers to drive Vicki to Bangor. Vicki turns him down, but eventually gives in. Carolyn is upset and jealous.

On the road, Burke tries to get Vicki to open up about Malloy's ghost.

Carolyn tells Liz that Vicki shouldn't have stayed on at Collinwood, she's not part of the family, because she's learned a new aspect of Vicki's personality. Carolyn refuses to validate her 'sudden about-face' because it involves Burke. She finally reveals that Vicki is with Burke and declares that Vicki is spilling beans about the Collins family.

Burke interrogates Vicki about the ghost, in which neither of them is sure they believe. Burke is psychotically menacing about Sam and Roger.
