An exhausted Bo looks over the growing file of the Music Box Killer. When Nora stops by they talk about John McBain who appears to be an intense guy who is a good detective and goes on his instincts. It appears that this job is his life and he does things his own way. Nora happily anticipates his first meeting with Daniel Colson. She mentions that she's tried to call Gabrielle without success and urges Bo to go home and get some rest. After he refuses, she manages to convince him to play a game of chess to relax a bit.

While searching for clues in Elyssa's death, Antonio finds a matchbook cover from a club called Scintillating Sensations, located near where her body was found.

John lugs his belongings into a dismal hotel room and lovingly sets up a framed publicity photo of an Eve McBain, "appearing nightly." He places a dusty LP on the record player. Ripping down the already peeling wallpaper, he starts to staple folders on the wall, creating a massive bulletin board related to his latest case. An expected Antonio arrives to discuss the latest findings and they learn that there's a pattern, with killings occurring every 15 days. They figure they have a week before another may happen. They also notice the similarities in the cases; besides the appearance of music boxes, each victim has been strangled with a red leotard and each has red tears drawn on her face. Antonio learns that the woman in the photo is John's mother.

As Marcie calls out for Al, he walks by as Michael, tripping over her feet. In his mind, he begs her to notice him. Speaking out loud, he urges her not to hang around with a dangerous killer on the loose and convinces her to have a drink with him. Luna scolds him and tells him not to give up. A restless Gabrielle wanders Angel Square.

Natalie applies for a job as a bartender at Rodi's and gets the position after mixing a drink for the manager. While Al/Michael gets Marcie a drink, Nat sits down with her. She admits to dropping out of school and that she is afraid to move Cris' belongings because he'll be gone for good. When Marcie suggests that perhaps Cris can come back, a perplexed Marcie asks her to explain. When interrupted by Al/Michael, Marcie introduces him to Nat; his last name is McBain and yes, John is his brother, he responds to Nat's question. Marcie urges him to leave them be and tells Nat that she has felt Al's presence and that she needed him to be able to move on. He "wrapped his hands around my heart..." she says. Nat replies that she feels cold and empty. She dashes off, upset. When Al/Michael playfully taunts her for upsetting Nat, Marcie tosses her drink in his face and runs out quickly. Nat is accosted by Pete, a harmless homeless man, and is rescued by Antonio and John. After Antonio agrees to accompany him to the shelter for the night, she tells John that she has "...a pain in my heart." John tries to comfort her but she wants no part of him. She doesn't want him anywhere near her. Al/Michael spots his brother and the two end up back at Rodi's for a drink. They make small talk, but obviously have not seen or spoken to each other in quite a long time. Al/Michael refuses to call their mother; that part of his life closed a long time ago, he tells his brother. Luna later tells him that Michael is a "lost soul" but Marcie should be able to help. Al is doubtful that he'll be able to do anything but Luna won't let him back out of the deal.

Gabby arrives to a darkened commissioner's office but soon tracks down Bo in Nora's office with the chess game. She agrees to hear what Nora has to say but warns her that whatever she says won't help. Nora reminds her that Bo is having a tough time and Gabby breaks down. She's sick of feeling the way she does. Nora gets her to laugh about a dance class that Roxy and Ron are teaching and she gets Gabby to agree to go with her. It should prove to be comical, they figure. Antonio and John meet with Bo to discuss their latest findings and to show him the evidence. They decide that it could be a plant, with the killer playing a cat and mouse game with them. All of the victims seem to be related via strip clubs except for Elyssa and they decide to check into her whereabouts during the recent year. The men agree that they all need some rest. It is agreed that Daniel will be kept away from John and the investigation. Al/Michael visits Marcie, who has returned to work at the station but she doesn't want to see him. She praises Al instead. He blurts out that he's in love with her, grabs her and kisses her; she slaps him and chases him out. Later, she sadly looks at Al's picture as tears roll down her face.

Al/Michael bumps into Pete foraging in a trashcan and hands him his dinner. Luna looks on, pleased.

Gabby and Bo leave Rodi's and she thanks him for not giving up on her.

A busy Nora calls Matthew and tells him she's on her way home.

John returns to his room and plays another old record. Soon, a knock on the door suspends his thoughts and it turns out to be Natalie. She explains that she's been trying to understand it all and get on with her life, but every time she sees him, it forces her to remember it all. She doesn't want him to help her or be there for her. It's too bad if he feels guilty about it. He'll do whatever she wants him to, he replies solemnly. Confused, she replies that she's not really sure why she's there. It was to tell him to go to hell, he prompts her. "Go to hell," she tells him.
