What does NTSB stand for? And isn't the Pacific Ocean lovely?

     Isn't it always the man who breaks the woman's heart? Damon left our poor Colby, weeping as she begged her cheating boyfriend to stay. He told her not to worry about who he cheated with and said, "Goodbye." I guess the actor misses the old Marissa (his real-life girlfriend) and needed to follow her to her dental appointment. Suh-nappp!
     Tad told a wallowing Liza to let Erica off the hook. Even though she thinks Erica shot and, therefore, put David Hayward into a coma, she told Erica she is dropping the charges against her. Erica thanked her, but didn't seem too relieved as I think many of us would have been in that case. Erica then visited David's hospital bed telling him he will no longer bother she and her family. He then awoke, uttering her name.
     Not as exciting as a waking David, Erica also let Opal in on her secret of kissing Caleb. But, she insisted to Opal that there is only 1% attraction on her part and 99% on his. Eh, he's okay, but Jack is so much better.
     Ryan returned to the beach and spoke with a man who may be masquerading as a plane specialist (we don't know who he really is yet). He told Ryan the plane crash was an accident and Ryan accepted this. Greenlee surprised him on the beach and gush gush, they sweet-talked each other, but you know what? I couldn't hear them, because of the rushing ocean tide. Man, California is gorgeous in the winter!
     Kendall checked out a-okay with Dr. Castillo:  He gave her a clean bill of health and she can now proceed with her normal life, sans Zach. Also, he must be a counselor in addition to a heart doctor, as he told her she needs to start sleeping in her own bed instead of the couch and move on in her life without Zach. Where is that State Farm Reverend Ricky when we need him?
