Back in the pool, Sully attempts to apologies to Cal and Chloe who are sitting by the poolside. The Sheriff interrupts the party and asks to speak with Abby.

Trish is trying on wedding dresses when Hunter unexpectedly joins her in the dressing room. She remains hostile towards him despite his efforts to reconcile with her.

Sully and Chloe are at the spa. Sully is being covered in a honey/herbal mixture following Chloe's advice. Cal breaks into the spa room and douses Sully in feathers which stick to him. It is revealed that Chloe and Cal had planned this all along.

Hunter comes to Thomas Wellington's room to bribe him for money or else he will reveal all to Trish.

Trish is in her room when a note is slipped under her door. It reads: "Let's make this work. Room 214. Hunter". She walks to room 214 but decides not to enter. It is then revealed that Henry is inside the room and that it was a trap set by him. It is unknown whether he heard Trish outside the door.

Abby goes to visit Shane at his house but finds J.D. in the shed with a noose around his neck, supported only by a chair. Shane confronts her. Abby tells him Kelly was murdered by John Wakefield to stall him. The Sheriff interrupts after Abby delivers a monologue about how difficult things must have been for Kelly. He tells Shane to drop the knife he is wielding. The chair is accidentally knocked from underneath J.D.. Shane and the Sheriff support him up while Abby cuts the rope.

Before his speech, Henry confronts Thomas about trying to spoil the wedding.

Back a the reception, Cal, Chloe, Henry and the groomsmen mock Sully over the day's earlier events. Hunter appears, making his presence known to Thomas.

Thomas meets Hunter at the dock with his check and Hunter leaves the island on a speedboat.

The Sheriff is going through Kelly's belongings at her house when he notices an ornament with red eyes, similar to Kelly's corpse.

Back on the speedboat Hunter finds Uncle Marty's bag full of cash and a gun. He laughs just as the speedboat breaks down in the middle of the sea. When he lifts up the hood of the engine he shot by a shotgun (belonging to the Candlewick Inn), which someone had set as a rigged trap.

Doc Campbell rings the Sheriff to inform him that the red substance in Kelly's eyes was ink. The sheriff finds a newspaper article in Kelly's house about how he killed John Wakefield. On the accompanying photo of the Sheriff in the article, someone has colored his eyes in red. Written on the article in the same red ink is a message saying "You found her, now find me".
