Shortly after proposing to Megan, Ryan makes a run for it according to Lexi's plan, but not for the reasons she suspects. Instead, Ryan travel to a catholic boarding school in New York to visit his eight-year-old daughter, Sarah, whom no one knows about, and who's in the care of his sister-in-law, Terry, who still blames Ryan for the death of his wife in a car accident years ago. Upon returning to Los Angeles, Ryan keeps his promise to Sarah of not ever marrying again by breaking up with Megan by telling her about his fling in Mexico with Lexi, but he also confides in Kyle about his secret. Meanwhile, Eve faces a return to prison because of her involvement with Jackie. But a quick intervention by Amanda saves Eve from that. Michael rallies the hospital staff for a protest as Dr. Shulman makes a play against Peter to bring him down. Eve also learns that the land in Texas formerly owned by Peter's late father is more valuable than anyone thought when oil is discovered on the property. Also, Amanda puts more time into her advertising company than with helping Kyle try to sell the Melrose apartment complex, driving him to work out his frustrations at Jane's house.
