Karen dreams of Keith and her daughter.

Suddenly, Karen stops breathing as Lucas screams for his mom, beyond the glass, where relatives can assist their loved ones.

Karen is then in a green field with a white dress. She sees Keith and running up to him, and happily kisses him. A little girl emerges from behind a bush and yells "yuck" at them. Karen stops kissing Keith and looks curiously at the child. Karen asks who it is, as Keith asks her if she doesn't already know. Karen realizes it is their daughter asks her mommy and daddy to come and play with her. They rush over to see her playing in a field of flowers. She picks one and asks her which type it is, and Karen answers her, which is a Lily. As she does, the little girl runs off past Keith and the two look at how their little girl is. Lily then asks for her mom to come with her and Keith tells Kare she should watch over her and that he will wait for her. Karen looks at him in doubt, but Keith tells her to look for him in the lilies. She runs off to see their daughter, leaving Keith behind, and she gets a heart beat back after the doctors "resuscitate" her.

Nathan is sitting with his son on the sofa watching basketball and listening to rap music. Haley walks in and is amazed that their son has settled into rap music and doesn’t understand why he doesn’t want the classical music she always used to play for him when she was pregnant. Nathan then admits that when she was asleep he would put old school hip hop on for him and the two laugh. Karen visits Keith’s grave with her baby girl, Lily Roe-Scott. She tells him she will see him everyday in her. Lucas finds Peyton’s car broken down at the same lake that they first met. He examines the engine and tells her it looks as though nothing is wrong. Peyton then admits that the car is fine but she just got sentimental. Lucas then asks her if she really means it or if she is avoiding packing to leave for Los Angeles. Peyton admits that she doesn’t want to leave him as she will miss him too much. Lucas then tells her that he doesn’t know what he is going to do and is looking for the significant moment where he knows what to do, but one hasn’t came yet. The two decide to lie together by the lake before going home to pack. Nathan is trying to get Haley to the last party of senior year, but she refuses saying that she has to look after her son. Deb then walks in the room and offers to babysit and also ensures them she is capable of looking after their son, she has put the gun at the range and she is not a drug addict anymore. But she does warn the couple if they ever call her grandma in public, she will get the gun.

Back at the party, Brooke is watching the others having fun from upstairs in tears as Lucas walks in and the two, both finally over their by now ended-for-good romantic chapter, have an intimate talk. She tells him that she is scared of moving on as she doesn’t think she is ready for the real world. Lucas then gets her to read an extract from his novel, and as she does, she realizes it is about her.

Meanwhile, Haley finds Nathan and tells him they have to go home as she isn’t getting an answer from his mom’s phone. Nathan tries to assure her that Deb will be looking after James, but Haley lists everything his mom has been through and Nathan rushes her out the house to go on check on their son. Mouth and Shelley are talking in the house as she tells him she is no longer a Clean Teen. Mouth tells Shelley how important she is to him and as he goes to walk away, Shelley hugs him happily and Mouth compliments the leather skirt she is wearing, cheering Shelley up. Brooke is joined by Peyton and the two joke about their love triangle, which is finally and definitely a closed chapter. Brooke then says how happy she is they made it through it all as Peyton agrees since it’s always been ‘Hoes Over Bros’, both remarking their excitement to spend the summer together in LA and how much they mean to each other and love one another. Mouth, Skills, Junk, and Fergie are on the roof and realize it is nearly midnight. As they laugh how Fergie and Junk have had no girlfriends for 4 years, which Junk denies, Skills notices Mouth is upset. Mouth spins the bottle and it points at Brooke. He jumps off the roof and walks straight over to her. He spins her round and kisses her as Skills, Junk, and Fergie cheer at him. He walks off after saying he always wanted to do that as Chase walks past in shock. Brooke then laughs but thanks him for letting her say goodbye to all her friends, but it is time they got to spend some time together. He takes her off to kiss her till she has to leave.
