Willow confronts Sasha in the Quartermaine kitchen, saying she thought she was her friend and how could she do this to her. Sasha flashes to being with Michael and tells her she’s so sorry and it was a mistake. Willow, however, is speaking about telling Cody about ther and Drew’s kiss, and that Michael found out about it in the worst possible way. Willow says, thankfully, he’s giving her and their marriage a second chance. Sasha didn’t mean to hurt her, and she only told Cody because they were in a relationship. Willow hopes she dumped him for violating her confidence. Sasha says they aren’t together, but that’s not why.

Sasha explains that she and Cody learned that they are first cousins. She just found out from her mother that Robert Scorpio is her father. Willow thought her mother was dead as they talked about the pain of losing their mothers. Willow wonders if they were ever friends, as she doesn’t know if she’s ever known her. Sasha explains she told everyone her mother was dead, as she was never there for her, and she never thought she had to tell anyone about her.

Willow is sorry she can’t be with Cody but she is fighting for her marriage because of Sasha’s big mouth. She says she grew up in a cult, and it’s been so hard to trust people. Sasha tells Willow she’s sorry she told Cody about her and Drew’s kiss, but she has nobody else to blame for this mess but herself. Sasha says they both know she kissed Drew twice, so maybe she should tell Michael the truth seeing he was only told about the first kiss. As they continue to argue, Sasha lashes out at Willow for judging everyone else for her mistakes and says she fits right in with the Quartermaines, who everyone warned her about. She decides she’s quitting since she can’t be with the man she loves and getting the hell out of this snake den.
