Today Henry is brought into the police station in handcuffs, where Margo is waiting to question him. He asks her to take off the handcuffs because he's a fainter; low blood sugar runs in his family. Margo offers him a chair. Henry reminds Margo that he's a personal friend of her sister Katie. Margo laughs at this and tells Henry she's "dragged her butt down here" many times! Margo tells Henry that Lucinda filed a complaint because she found Henry "going through her drawers," and when she caught him, he "ran like a little bunny." Henry just laughs and says it can only mean one thing, "she's back on the sauce!"
Margo puts a glove on her hand and reaches toward Henry. He asks her what the problem is, does he have dandruff or clogged pores? But she just plucks a few hairs out of his head. "Ouch!" cries Henry. Margo explains that some unidentified hairs were found at Rose's house, and they need to test for a match.
Henry demands a lawyer, and Margo tells him that he'll need one because he's going to be in "a legal nightmare so deep you won't find your way out with a compass or a set of coconuts." She hands him the phone and suggests "1-800-SAVE-ME." Henry requests some privacy to make the call, and Margo suggests her husband Tom, who is very expensive. Henry claims he doesn't have that kind of money because "that island your sister stranded me on had a shortage of paying jobs." Margo suggests a public defender and tells him he'll be old by the time he gets out.
After a phone call from Lily, Margo tells Henry that Lily asked how he was, and Lucinda was overjoyed to hear he was in custody. Henry tells Margo he needs to ask her a question. Can they make a deal? If he cooperates, the D.A. will go easy on him. Margo says that's up to Rose and Lucinda. Henry says he's changed his mind, and Margo tells her fellow cop to "throw crybaby in jail." She has decided that his nickname in jail will be crybaby, but that just means the other guys like him! Henry agrees that maybe he was being a little hasty. But he can't tell her what he was looking for. He can only tell her that if he doesn't find it, Rose is in terrible danger.
Meanwhile, Lucinda goes over to Lily and Holden's house to tell them, along with Rose and Paul, about the break in at Rose's World Wide office. Rose is surprised to find out it was Henry, she thought he'd be shark bait by now! They figure out that he must have taken Rose's key, because it's the only one missing. Paul remembers the nurse in Rose's room at the hospital who had 5 o'clock shadow! Rose decides she's going to "kick that cross-dressing butt of Henry's." She says, "if there's one thing I've learned about bad guys, once they start wearing dresses you have to nail them to the wall!" She wants to go find him immediately, but Lily suggests they call the police. After Lily and Rose hear that Henry is in custody, they start to wonder about what he could want. Rose says she has nothing, not even her diamond! A light bulb goes off for Lily and she says that maybe Rose does have it. She starts remembering what happened at the island, and how Simon rescued Katie but left Henry behind. "I always said Simon had good judgement," quips Lucinda. Lily goes on to say that Henry and Katie were there looking for the diamond, which Rose reminds her is at the bottom of the ocean. But maybe, just maybe, says Lily, it's right here in Oakdale! Today’s episode was directed by Scott McKinsey and written by Meg Kelley.
