By 1991, David returned in disguise and with the name of Jim Adams, and began romancing Nina's mother Florence. He was able to convince Nina to change her will to make Florence and him the co- beneficiaries of Nina's estate. At a masquerade ball, David intended to kill Nina, Christine, and Danny, but his ex-lover Diane warned them. They ended up tricking David to think that he killed them all and was soon being investigated by the police. He hid in a garbage chute at one point and was then killed by a garbage compactor.
