Plot

Thirteen years after If There Be Thorns, Cathy and Chris arrive at Foxworth Hall, which has been rebuilt by Bart, for his 25th birthday. Bart has remained obsessed with Malcolm and has an estranged relationship with his mother and uncle due to their incestuous relationship. He even has changed his last name to Foxworth to keep his distance from them. Jory and his wife, Melodie, arrive to announce she is pregnant with twins. Everyone, but Bart, is excited about the news and Bart is jealous of his brother because he lusts for Melodie. The next day, Cindy arrives and Bart welcomes her with contempt. At his birthday party, Jory and Cindy perform a ballet for the guests, but Jory has an accident that leaves him paralyzed from the waist down and ends his dance career. Melodie is distraught since she is unable to live with a husband who can't dance and make love to her again. Cindy suspects that Bart was responsible for the incident since he had updated his insurance policy on the day of the accident. When confronted with this suspicion, Bart denies this to Cathy and Chris, but they don't believe him.

As months pass, with Jory hospitalized and Melodie depressed, Bart takes advantage of her in her vulnerable state and seduces her. When Jory comes home, Corrine's will is read and Bart is enraged to learn that he will inherit the Foxworth estate only on his 35th birthday, leaving Chris as the guardian of his money until them. Cathy discovers Bart and Melodie's affair when walking in on them having sex. Bart tells Cathy that Melodie loves him and points out that Malcolm was obsessed with his own mother until she abandoned him and how much he hates seeing her with Chris. Cathy then confronts Melodie and threatens to ruin her life if she doesn't start being there for Jory. Melodie promises Jory that she will be more attentive to him after he attempts suicide by drowning in the pool, but attempts to continue her affair with Bart. Bart ultimately spurns her advances and calls her a whore. Cindy brings home a boyfriend, Lance, to meet the family, but Bart beats him after catching the two having sex. Despite his hatred towards her, Bart starts to lust for Cindy.

On Christmas Day, Bart deliberately confesses his affair with Melodie to Jory, and the shock causes her to go into labor. She gives birth to a boy and girl named Darren and Deidre. However, she has no interest in them and Jory, and abruptly abandons them. Bart follows Cindy meeting with another boyfriend at a bar and confronts her on her way home through the woods and, in the heat of the moment, has sex with her. Cindy is interested in having a relationship with Bart and tells him she does have feelings for him (even admitting she knows about Cathy and Chris's secret), but he rejects her. Devastated, Cindy returns to school in New York.

Chris decides to look for a new house for Cathy, Jory, the twins, and himself to give Bart his own space. They hire a nanny, Toni, to take care of the twins. Bart starts pursuing her, which troubles Cathy since she was hoping Toni would end up with Jory. Bart accuses her of thinking less of him and that Toni chose him for money rather than love, soon breaking up with her. He then forces the family to attend a baptism at the Foxworth chapel for the twins and almost drowns Deidre, causing Jory to threaten to kill him. Jory begs for Cathy to have Bart committed, but she is reluctant. They instead decide to leave Foxworth Hall with Toni and the twins to get away from Bart. Bart has a mental breakdown and accuses Cathy of abandoning him for Chris, and blames her for ruining the family. He is about to kill her with a dagger before he is stopped by Jory. Having seen it is hopeless to help him, Cathy decides to leave Bart for good. As he returns home after finding them a new house, Chris pulls over to help a stranded motorist and is struck by a truck, which kills him instantly.

Several hours pass before the police arrive to inform the family of Chris' death. This causes Bart to realize his wrongdoings and how he has pushed people away. He realizes his love for Cindy and confesses to her when she comes home for the funeral. Bart gives a moving eulogy at Chris' funeral and is thankful to Chris for raising him. In the end, Cathy reveals that her children led successful lives away from Foxworth Hall. Jory thrives in his recovery, has married Toni, and they are raising the twins and expecting a child together. Bart became a televangelist and has married Cindy. However, Cathy chooses to remain at Foxworth Hall as she continues to mourn the loss of Chris. One day, she goes up to the attic, sits by a window and, as she envisions yellow paper flowers, finally dies of a broken heart.
