Peter stares at the blood on his hand, unable to understand why Kelly scratched him. As he takes off, we see Summer lying dead on the floor with a white carnation beside her body. Back at his apartment, Peter becomes concerned about Kelly and is relieved when he hears her voice on the phone. Upon hearing a news bulletin about the murder, he returns to the State Street Bar and learns that the victim was Summer, not Kelly. He takes off before Cliff gets the chance to spot him.

Following information from a guy at the State Street Bar, Warren finds Summer's dead body in an abandoned warehouse. Devastated, he takes her body into his arms and starts sobbing over his loss, blaming himself for leaving her alone. Cliff arrives and realizes that this killing is exactly like the other one, which suggests it's the work of a serial killer. Before long, Mason and Veronica's evening at the Presidential Suite is interrupted by a call about Summer. Mason goes to the warehouse and is horrified to see Summer's body. With Mason and Cliff working on finding the killer, Warren decides that he should be the one to tell Gina what happened.

Gina is in her room getting ready for the romantic dinner she has planned for herself and C.C. Meanwhile, Joe and Kelly arrive at the Capwell house and he finally agrees to let her father give the wedding. He doesn't want her father to force a job or a house on him, but Kelly is ecstatic nevertheless. Dressed to the nines, Gina is unable to find a way to get Joe and Kelly to leave and they decide to stay for dinner. The evening comes to an abrupt end when Mason and Warren arrive with the news about Summer. Gina is distraught that someone would murder her sister and sobs in Warren's arms. It occurs to a scared Kelly that she was with both of the girls before they got killed; she tells Joe she thinks all of this has a connection with her.

Ted and Laken are staying at the loft in Warren's old farm when they hear a noise. They're spooked by someone holding a pitchfork, but it's just Danny with food for his friends. After Danny informs Laken there's been no word on her father, she's worried and tells Ted that she wants to go home. Although he tries to change her mind, she insists that her family needs her now more than he does. Danny tells Ted that he's worried about him and Laken, but Rosa believes that the Capwell/Lockridge feud has gone on far too long and tells Ted that love is the most important thing.

Alone at the Lockridge house, Warren gets a call from his father and is relieved that he's okay. Mason and Laken arrive at the house at the same time. Laken overhears Warren talking to his mother on the phone about the fact that Lionel was with Sophia when she died. When Laken asks Warren if it's true, Mason overhears and happily concludes that Lionel must have murdered both Channing and Sophia.

Mason calls Veronica, caustioning her that the killer has a preference for young blonde women. While locking her apartment, Veronica is understandably spooked when she spots blood on her floor. She gets her gun out of a drawer and moves to open the door to the other room.

Note: This is the last episode with Jonna Leigh Stack as Summer Blake.
