Betsy’s Loyalty To Dylan Is Put To The Test
Despite the accusations surrounding Dylan, Betsy refuses to turn against her boyfriend.

However, Dylan’s own actions soon make the situation even more complicated.

For the first time, Dylan begins questioning whether protecting himself is stopping him from truly accepting responsibility.
Ryan Connor Helps Dylan Face The Truth
