16. Reservation for Two

Complete story — includes the ending

Emma (as Sutton) is being interrogated by the police after Derek's murder, as Sutton is the only potential witness in the case. Since Emma wasn't actually at the scene, she stumbles on her words while trying to re-enact what had gone on between Ethan and Derek. Alec picks up on this and is suspicious of both Emma (as Sutton) and Dan, who he thinks is trying to hide Ethan (which isn't true). Sutton and Ethan arrive at the reservation that Ethan grew up in. She also meets his father, Ben, who is anything but friendly to the two of them. Sutton and Ethan also warm up to each other again during their time in hiding. Tribal police officers show up at Ben's ranch, looking for Ethan as he is wanted for murder. Ben doesn't rat him out and simply says that he hasn't heard from either of his sons since he kicked them out a while back. He then tells Ethan that he has a week to leave. Emma (as Sutton) is on bad terms with Mads and Ryan, as she is unable to keep up with Sutton's inconsistencies. Emma and Alec have a brief exchange at Derek's funeral regarding the night of the crime when they try to get a read on one another as they both think that the other was involved. Laurel performs with Baz's band for the first time. Ryan tells Mads that Sutton had hit on him at the Black & White Ball. Alec spends the night at Rebecca's. After tensions mount between Emma (as Sutton) and Mads because of what Sutton did, Emma reveals her true identity in order to salvage their friendship, leaving Mads shocked and confused.
