The band goes into the studio to record two brand new songs with Brian Cox. "Handle Me" and "Ride For You". Aubrey's part of one of the verses for "Ride For You" was cut.

He said he wanted to cry when he heard the song and Aubrey's emotion on the record didn't cut it. They went to record a second song and everyone noticed that Aubrey wasn't on that song either. Dawn was very concerned with Aubrey so she goes to Johnny and tells him about the problem. Johnny says he can't do anything about it, that it's the producers song.
