Nina gave Ronan the copy of her book she had found among Chance's things which contained notes that showed that Chance had been actively searching for Ronan for a long time.
Chloe walked in on their goodbye embrace, she refused to forgive Ronan for killing Chance, and was unable to understand how Nina could forgive him either. Heather noticed how much trouble Ronan had grasping objects, that he took medication, and nearly fainted a few times, but Ronan refused to admit that anything was wrong with him. Nina invited Ronan to spend Thanksgiving with her and Paul at the Chancellor mansion, but he claimed he had to work.
So Heather coerced Ronan into attending by threatening to expose his health problem to Nina. Days later, Ronan blacked out and Heather took him to the hospital where the diagnosis he'd gotten in Boston of hereditary amyloidosis was confirmed; the same disease his father had died of at about the same age.
Heather began to care more and more for Ronan, showing up at his dingy hotel room with food, encouraging him to eat, and to get close to Nina and fight his disease.
They became lovers, as Ronan found out that his only hope to live would be a liver transplant. Heather convinced Ronan to accompany her to the Chancellor estate to spend Christmas with his mother Nina, and Nina, who was missing Chance, was overjoyed to see her other son. Ronan refused to tell his mother of his condition, so Heather told Nina.
Nina went to Ronan and assured him that they would fight this together. Because Heather was subpoenaed to be a witness at the former D.
Paul recognized the gunshots as blanks, and further investigation revealed that the paramedics who took Chance's body away were fakes. So Heather went to Ronan with their theory that Chance was still alive, which caused Ronan to admit that he was in witness protection. When Christine found out that Heather knew, she fired Ronan for mishandling the case. After Nina was tested, but was not a match to donate part of her liver to help Ronan, she convinced Chris to tell Chance.
Paul was telling Nina that he was not a match either, when Christine and Heather arrived, so Nina told Paul that Chance was still alive. Christine said that Chance was being tested, and if he was a match the donation would happen after Chance testified at the former D. Ronan tried to leave town, but Nina caught him at the bus station and talked him into staying and fighting this together with her, Heather, and Paul.
Ronan and Heather went ice skating with Paul and Nina. Ronan told them about his adoptive mother, an amateur figure skater who taught classes, and that he played hockey so he had learned a few tricks like a back-checking Salchow from her. Then Ronan passed out, and was taken to Genoa City Memorial, where he was told that he needed the liver transplant soon or he would die. Christine showed up to announce that Chance was a match, and that he was in town to testify.
Meanwhile, Jill, who was mourning the death of her "son" Cane, was taken to her room to rest by Nina, and there stood her bearded and very much alive grandson, Chance. Chance said he was there to help Jill get over Cane, and to help Ronan. Jill was miffed that everyone seemed to know that Chance had never died but her, but was just relived to have him back.
Heather was thrilled to see Chance again, but made it clear that her love was with Ronan. Nate Hastings, a Rheumatology specialist practicing in Boston, returned to Genoa City to perform the partial liver transplant on Ronan, using part of Chance's liver. In the waiting room were Jill, Paul, Heather, Nina, Phillip who had arrived from his home in Australia, Kay with Murphy who had just been told about Chance, and Chloe, who was told when she arrived wondering why everyone was there.
Chance came through the surgery fine, but as soon as Ronan's surgery was finished, Ronan was taken away by an unmarked helicopter under orders from the FBI. Nate was shocked and very concerned for his patient, saying it was very dangerous for Ronan in his condition. Chris knew nothing about the transfer, and her superiors were not answering their phones. Chance was released from the hospital and was taken back to the Chancellor Estate to recuperate.
After Chris got confirmation that Ronan had ordered his own transfer, only Nina still had faith in Ronan. Although she had been getting regular emails, she suddenly stopped hearing from him, and had alerted Phillip in Australia. That same day, Paul was shocked when Ronan showed up as an investigator at the crime scene where Diane Jenkins had been murdered.
Paul asked for an explanation of why Ronan had disappeared and where he had been, but Ronan said he had been rehired by the Genoa City Police, and that was all Paul needed to know.
Nina was stunned when she ran into Ronan at the police station while looking for Paul. Then Ronan hurt her feelings when he refused to give her any explanation for why he had disappeared or hadn't told her that he was back.
Nina called him cold-hearted and told him that he was dead to her, and no longer her son. Nina lamented that her missing son was on a classified mission, and the other wanted nothing to do with her, but was consoled by Paul. Later, Ronan was convinced that there was a leak in the police department, as these clues and the murder scene photos had gotten out to the public. Ronan called in Paul for help, saying that he was the only person he knew that he could trust.
Heather tried to get Ronan to tell them why he had disappeared and was shutting everyone out, but Ronan refused to talk about it. And although Chloe enticed Ronan into bed, he would only admit that his disappearance had something to do with the FBI. The Diane Jenkins autopsy results were that she had been hit over the head ten times with a blunt object, an impression of a Harvard ring was found on Diane's arm, and a small key was found in Diane's mouth.
One by one, the suspects who had received Diane's text were questioned by Ronan. Adam said nothing, but recalled meeting Diane at the stream, and how they had set up the scene to frame Victor, emptying the contents of Diane's purse, creating drag marks, putting her blood on a rock, and placing Victor's stolen watch under it. Diane had told Adam she didn't trust him and had taken precautions; that Gingerman, the man who photographed the ambulance leaving the ranch, would be naming Adam as his source for the "Victor stroke story" if she did not make it safely to Switzerland.
Ronan showed Adam Diane's exoneration letter which they had found with Diane's purse. Adam gave an alibi as being at the Athletic Club bar, and tipped them to suspect Jack, as he left. When questioned, Jack claimed he had never gone to the park, but recalled how he had met Diane on the footbridge and confronted her about Kyle's whereabouts, accused her of not changing at bit, and using their son. Jack tipped Ronan to suspect Victor.
Victor told Ronan he did not respond to Diane's text, but recalled to himself how they had met at the stream, and Diane had convinced him that Adam was setting him up for her murder by showing him that Adam had planted Victor's watch under the blood-covered rock. Diane narrating "from the grave," told how she asked Victor to help her, and when he refused, she attacked him. And how Victoria watched from the shadows as Victor raised the rock as if to strike Diane with it.
Victor told Adam that he was going to use it to prove that Adam murdered Diane, and that try as he might, Adam would never outsmart him. Later Victor recalled seeing Diane floating in the stream. Diane, narrating "from the grave", admitted that she didn't even know who killed her. Abby recalled meeting Diane at the park where Diane taunted her with the key to a safe containing Abby's confession video.
Diane, "narrating from the grave" told how they fought over it. Eddie the Athletic Club bartender told police that Abby got drunk that night and he cut her off, but he did not recall the exact time. Abby left and blacked out afterward.
Adam offered that they could give each other an alibi since he was also at the bar that night with a woman he picked up, but Abby declined. Tucker recalled confronting Diane about Abby's video and Diane's exposing their one-night-stand to Ashley.
Tucker grabbed her by the neck and said he would kill her. But in his weakened condition, Diane was able to shove him to the ground and walk away. Tucker later came up with a rash which he probably got there since the area was full of poison sumac. Nick recalled meeting Diane, and her threatening him with bringing the Newman family to their knees.
They struggled, and his phone fell to the ground calling Ashley and recording Nick threatening to kill Diane on her voicemail. Ashley recalled meeting Diane, and how Diane taunted her about having sex with Tucker. Diane told her she was the worst mother ever for not believing her own daughter about Tucker's infidelity.
Ashley knocked Diane to the ground, and lost her cell phone, saying, "I'm not finished with you", as Ashley followed her into the bushes. The next night Ashley went back to the park looking for her phone, and was surprised by Nick. They shared their experiences with Diane the night of her death, but did not find the phone which could get them both in a lot of trouble. Afterward, Nick began receiving calls from a blocked number playing back the recording of his threatening Diane.
Nick informed Ashley that someone had found her phone and knew that the two of them had met Diane the night she was killed. Phyllis had met Diane, who threatened to post online for their kids to see, the photo of Nick and Phyllis having sex on the office desk. They slapped each other, Phyllis picked up something from the dirt, and one of Phyllis's acrylic nails broke off.
During questioning, Ronan noticed that Phyllis had recently had her nails done, and later he accused her of being the owner of the nail found at the crime scene. Deacon upon seeing Phyllis, told her, "I saw what you did. Since Adam's Harvard ring did not match the imprint on Diane's arm, Ronan got a search warrant to check out Jack's.
Ronan later let Adam know that they had evidence that the gouge in Adam's ring which had disqualified it from matching the mark on Diane's arm had been made since the murder. Ronan questioned Victor about the guardianship papers which could have been a motive if he felt that Diane had double-crossed him by sending Kyle to Switzerland. Victor responded by giving Ronan his watch asserting that Adam had stolen it to frame him. Since Adam was the prime suspect, Ronan said he would be happy to check it for Adam's prints.
Following Diane's funeral, Ronan had Kyle removed and announced that he knew he'd been lied to by most of them, and that there was physical evidence that all of them were at the crime scene that night. That since they obviously didn't conspire to kill Diane, each must be hiding something else that is only making them look guilty, so he suggested they correct their lies.
Victoria, Phyllis, and Deacon were seen by police surveillance at the crime scene the day after the crime. Abby told Ashley and the police of her suspicion that Tucker had killed Diane, and that he had a rash from poison sumac. The fish and game department discovered their surveillance camera was stolen from the park. Viewers saw someone watching its video from the night of the crime on a laptop.
Pillows with sayings embroidered on them turned up in Diane's suite that Kyle said he'd never seen before. There was a leak in the police department, as these clues and the murder scene photos had gotten out to the public. Footprints at the scene matched a pair of shoes that Victor had recently bought. Although a search warrant turned up nothing at the ranch, Ronan showed Victor a photo of Victor wearing them hours before the murder.
Diane's cell records showed that all the suspects were sent text messages to meet her in the park. The key found in Diane's mouth unlocked an abandoned lockbox in the athletic club safe which had been Diane's.
It contained her diary, and on July twenty-fifth, there was an entry saying that if anything happened to her it would be done by Victor or Adam, and five pages were missing from the days just before her death. Ronan sent Phyllis a blackmail note so she and Nick met him at a warehouse causing Phyllis and Nick to admit their secrets of meeting with Diane the night she died. Ronan took them in for questioning, but later let them go. Phyllis came on to Ronan, who seemed to be interested.
Victor's shoes were found at a Goodwill store outside of Racine, and a donation receipt was found in his closet. Ronan brought Victor in for questioning, but Victor claimed he had been set up by Adam.
Leaving Adam and Victor alone in his bugged office, after each accused the other of the murder, Ronan overheard Adam admit that he had talked to Diane at footbridge but she had not yet spoken to Victor, so Victor had to have talked to Diane later on the night she died about Adam setting him up. Adam left the police station and spoke to an unseen person at a warehouse, and accused them of writing Diane's "bogus" diary. Ronan began studying the pillows found in Diane's room, deducing that each was connected to a person.
On a hunch, Ronan tore Abby's open and found a memory stick inside which contained Abby's video confession. Ronan confronted Abby with it as motive to kill Diane, but let Abby, Phyllis, and Nick go and had them followed.
Abby was later arrested for the attempted murder of Tucker, but Tucker had the charges dropped. One evening, a text message was sent from Ronan's missing cell phone to all the Diane Jenkins murder suspects except Adam, telling them to meet him at a warehouse. The suspects gathered and the surveillance tape of everyone's encounter with Diane in the park began to play, revealing everyone's secrets from that fateful night.
They hid the tape before Ronan arrived. Adam arrived at a pumpkin patch and surmised that Patty Williams had summoned him. Meanwhile, Genevieve's housekeeper, Myrna Murdock, who had been badly burned when Genevieve's house exploded, lay in the hospital covered in bandages except for a cat tattoo; the same tattoo as Patty Williams.
Patty had apparently been posing as Myrna, had been tormenting the suspects with information she had gleaned from the stolen park surveillance tapes, and the explosion at the mansion had kept her from joining them at the warehouse. Chance reappeared in Genoa City several months after he rejoined the military, saying that he had been reassigned by the state department to work with Ronan on the Colin Atkinson case due to Colin's drug trade in the Middle East.
After being reunited with Nina, Chance admitted that although he had been working with Ronan, Ronan still had not explained why he had disappeared without a word after the liver transplant. After catching Nick and Avery in an embrace, a jealous Phyllis called Ronan, and they had sex on her desk.
After Phyllis realized that Ronan had also gotten information from her laptop, she paid him a visit at the police station. Phyllis spotted a memory chip in the evidence dredged from the creek for the Diane Jenkins case on Ronan's desk, and they played it. Just as Avery was about to expose Heather for fraternizing with a witness to get a mistrial for Sharon, Ronan and Phyllis burst into the courtroom, and were allowed to present their evidence. After hearing the audio of Sharon trying to save Skye, the judge left it up to the DA's office.
Heather dropped the charges against Sharon, and Sharon was freed. Sharon thanked Ronan, but Phyllis made sure that Sharon knew it was her that had found the chip, twice, and had saved her. Phyllis stole the photos from the courtroom and put them up online with a sensational story about the A. Heather was fired as A. Ricky filed a lawsuit against Phyllis and Restless Style for using work without payment with Avery representing him, and Avery filed a criminal complaint for theft of evidence from an attorney in court.
With her career ruined, Paul said goodbye to Heather, who left for New York City to stay with her mother, April, then Paul tore into Ricky for humiliating his sister. Nick was livid with Phyllis for once again doing a sensational story without thinking of the collateral damage to other's lives.
Phyllis reacted by having sex with Ronan at the police station, and Nick retaliated by having sex with Avery.
Ronan received a phone call which played the voicemail of Nick threatening Diane. Phyllis went to warn Nick, and walked in on Nick and Avery, realizing they had obviously just had sex together.
Phyllis had it out with Nick, whom she told to go to hell, and that she would never try to help him again. Afterward, Phyllis sought out Avery who informed her that she was staying in town permanently.
What is with him? I just have a gut feeling he will turn to Sharon. Ronan and Phylis is the best together and he will get her out of this mess. Ronan, Phylis, and Avery is a force to be reconed with and toss a little Micheal.
Nick is looking for his daughter Summer as well as his stepson Daniel and Lucy. The hit and run affects everyone in Phyllis family and the kids will suffer just as much if not more than Phyllis! She demands it in everyone else. Oh Please! I am not falling for that old line … Adumb said the same thing to Sharon …all the while plotting against Victor … Jack said the same thing to Sharon … all the while plotting against Victor.
Phyllis did run to Ronan but Michael was there and she had to pretend she had come to see him … after Michael left she looked all around and then proceeded to Ronan … she was interrupted when Nick arrived. He left. Let him stay gone. Ronan is a man! He is the champion that will work with Avery and get Phyllis freed! Phyllis needs a champion right now and Ronan is the perfect man for the job. For once, Nick had a shot.
A real shot at owning being a man and he just blew it! I am sorry but Nick is a little boy who has no clue what it means to be a man for the woman he loves.
Nick is used to a weak woman who any man would look like a man for. Christine actually planted the drugs so Chance would be safe at home on suspension. Surprisingly Chance made a false confession in order to investigate a drug ring operating out of the local prison with the help of GCPD and received a six-month sentence. Christine didn't count on him confessing and putting himself in even more danger in jail.
At the courthouse, Heather, Ronan and Christine discussed how much they hated setting up Chance. At the station, Ronan, Christine and Heather marveled over the turn of events with Chance. Ronan was impressed in spite of their concern - he didn't think Chance had it in him. Heather and Ronan asked Owen to drop the charges against Chance but he refused. While visiting Chance in jail, Ronan, Sid and Heather came in and said they had asked the warden to put Chance in isolation. Chance refused.
Ronan and Chance argued. Heather asked what she was supposed to tell Nina. Chance said, "Tell her I'm good". Ronan and Heather left. Ultimately it was reveleaed that Ronan was only pretending to be a dirty cop as part of a federal sting against Genoa City's corruption, and he learned that district attorney Owen Pomerantz was the leader of the drug ring.
Owen forced Ronan to shoot and kill Chance who was out of prison at that point and closing in on the ring and Ronan complied in order to maintain his cover. Ronan was briefly jailed but released, much to Nina's dismay. Nina had witnessed the shooting and was unable to forgive Ronan for killing his own brother -- until she learned that Chance was alive and in Witness Protection. After saying goodbye to Chance, Nina asked Ronan if he was going to stick around. Ronan explains that his job makes it hard for him to do that.
Christine brings Ronan back a little while later to assist Heather who still thought Ronan killed Chance in prosecuting Owen.
