Adriana kept the assault from fiancé Rex Balsom (John-Paul Lavoisier) and Talia Sahid (BethAnn Bonner). Rex followed Adriana, and Tate orders Adriana to tie up Rex. Talia receives a tip from the hotel owner, Renée Divine Buchanan (Patricia Elliott), and rescued Vincent, Layla, Adriana and Rex. Vincent and Layla reunite and make love for the first time.
