you know , instead of dwelling on the ways that nick made my life difficult ... all i could think about last night was ... how much he loved me . you know , he could be so sweet and so gentle . and he knew what people thought about him , but i believe -- you know , i believe that there really was a part of him that wanted to change . marlena : i believe that too . and i think for you , remembering the happy times , the good times , the caring times -- i think -- i think that 's a good way for you to move on . lucas : there you go . hope : i do n't see any of the texts here with nick . you deleted them ? lucas : i do n't know . i must have . hope : now , why would you do that ? lucas : i delete texts all the time . do n't you ? i mean , if they 're not important , why keep 'em , right ? hope : wait a second . here we go . text to will , `` hi . `` will 's reply , `` how 's it going ?

lucas : i do n't recall . hope : you do not recall ? well , is n't that convenient ? your service provider will tell us exactly when they were deleted . lucas : i did not kill nick . i did n't do it ! i did n't ! hope : then why are you going out of your way to look so guilty ? lucas : because i knew what it would look like . i knew what it would look like from the outside . that 's why i deleted the texts . i 'm sorry , okay ? i was n't thinking clearly . hope : it 's too late . lucas : what do you mean it 's too late ? what , you 're gon na arrest me now ? sami : oh , ej , why did n't you call me ? where have you been ? ej : busy . sami : well , are you okay ? i was really worried . ej : fine . sami : did you ... ej : it 's okay . we 're safe . sami : [ sighs ] eric : what ?

it 's not important . it stopped being important the moment we tried to move away from church weddings . nicole : [ chuckles ] i 'm so sorry that could n't happen . i know that would have meant a lot to you . eric : shh . there 's no more regrets . not anymore . i wanted this time to be right . it was . you know , being here with you right now , it was like an affirmation ... of who we are and what we are together . i love you . and i needed you as much as i sensed you needed me . nicole : i love you . god , how i love you . jj : hey , hey , hey . where are you going ?

i mean , what was he thinking ? could n't that get traced back to you ? ej : no . sami : well , it 's a good job you took it anyway . i mean , we ca n't have his corpse with a bunch money found near it . did you take the wallet too ? that way it could look like a robbery or something . ej : i did n't need to . sami : what do you mean ? ej : [ sighs ] i did n't kill him . he gave me this money . that 's why he wanted to see me . sami : your hitman gave you a refund ? ej : because he knows better than to cross the family . sami : why would he think that he was crossing the family ? ej : because he did n't do the job i paid him to . someone else killed nick . hope : at this time , you 're not under arrest . lucas : thank you . hope : lucas , there 's a cop waiting outside of my office . he 's sure to have the warrant by now , which covers your house , car , and personal effects . it also specifies the clothes and shoes you were wearing last night , any weapons in your possession , and any other evidence that may be pertinent to this ongoing investigation . lucas : i did n't do it , hope . hope : your statement has been preserved for the record . lucas : can you talk to me like a human now ? hope : you better pray to god we do n't find anything else in our search that implicates you . lucas : you think i did this , do n't you ? hope : as of now , you 're a person of interest . i 'll be filing papers that will enjoin you from leaving this jurisdiction until further notice . lucas : i did n't do it . hope : okay , then prove it . hand over your passport ... as a gesture of good will , and stay here and face whatever we find . nicole : i will never let you go .

[ laughs ] show him in . yes , sir . nicole : hey . dario : hey . nicole : so they let you out of the hospital , huh ? dario : i was going crazy in there . i was n't even sick . feels like it 's gon na rain any minute . you want to take this over to the brady pub ? nicole : i have an umbrella . plus , i want to keep this private . dario : okay . nicole : i 'll give you the short version . so i 'm pretty sure victor has some other plan to get his brother 'cause he does n't believe i 'll go through with it . and i found out kate is trying to talk deimos into marrying her , so maybe there 's no time for victor 's plan . dario : she does n't really want to marry this guy , does she ? nicole : i do n't know . but she 's definitely not all about the sanctity of marriage . dario : maybe she 's afraid she 's gon na lose him to you . does n't that mean your plan 's working ? nicole : i heard her talking about vegas . she really wants to nail this guys down as soon as possible . and if that happens , victor 's never gon na get his fortune back and deimos is gon na get off scot - free for what he did to maggie . and i ca n't forget , can not , i will not let that happen . john : kid , this never should have happened to you , man . it 's all on me . paul : well , i know you 're a big - shot secret agent , but i do n't think even you could make a virus . marlena : no , but his father could . paul : that does n't make sense . i mean , he was all about how i was supposed to be his successor . why would he try to kill me ? john : well , it seems that the virus had a ... fairly long incubation period . so i assume if my father was successful in ... brainwashing you and turning you , he also would have the ability to cure you of the virus . you know , on the other hand , if he was unsuccessful , the virus was his backup plan . paul : so he was ready to kill me and let me spread the virus to most of salem . the guy does n't mess around . marlena : there were only two deaths . paul : and they died because of me . john : no , because of him . let 's just pray to god that my old man did n't have any other tricks up his sleeve . adriana : [ clears throat ] this is how you behave , gabriella ? with my granddaughter in the room ? dario : from what i hear , kate does n't waste any time when she wants something . so that means you 're gon na have to step up your game , if you know what i mean . nicole : go back to that house and try and seduce him out of marrying her ? tonight ? i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm not ready to go that far . dario : well , somebody 's got to stop him from going to vegas with kate . i mean , your friend , deimos , has been in prison for , what , 20 , 30 years ? nicole : that 's what they tell me . dario : yeah , so that means he 's making up for lost time . i mean , i do n't think he 's the no - sex - before - marriage type . nicole : maybe i can tell him i 'm the no - sex - before - marriage type . i mean , you think i can convince him i 'm worth the wait ? dario : i do n't know about him , but you would n't have to try very hard with me . nicole : stop . dario : i 'm serious . in this game , you 're the perfect package . kate : justin , i do n't know why you 're here , and i do n't really care . just make it quick . deimos : kate , please . i 've been expecting your visit . justin : i 'd rather not talk in front of kate . kate : fine . so , are we going to be taking that trip a little later ? deimos : tomorrow 's as good as tonight . kate : hmm . of course . justin : kind of soon to be traveling , is n't it ? you just took control of titan . deimos : one of the many good things about being very , very rich is i can do whatever i want whenever i want . justin : and with whomever you want . deimos : not always the case . justin : meaning what ? deimos : i 'm beginning to learn just how many people want something from me . [ dramatic music ] justin : look , uncle , you 're the one who called and told me to come over here . and you said that you had made up your mind about my proposal . deimos : so i settle some money on victor and i get preferential treatment from the da 's office ? justin : that 's what i said . deimos : i 'm gon na take you up on your offer . justin : you made the right decision . deimos : i 'm not interested in your approval . i just want to know whether i can trust you to keep your word . justin : i 'm family . deimos : do n't make me laugh . i expect you to cover up any ... difficulties that i or anyone i employ happens to encounter or create . justin : could you give me a hint about what you mean by `` difficulties `` ? deimos : i 'm not gon na make this easy on you . i want to see just how quickly you can think on your feet . so just know that when the test comes , and it will come , you 're gon na have to recognize it for what it is and act accordingly . i 'm gon na keep my eyes on you , nephew . so you might want to keep on your toes . gabi : we were just kissing , mommy . jj : yeah , mrs. hernandez , i -- i hope you did n't think that -- gabi : it 's okay , jj . look , mommy is old - school about what i do and -- and who i date , but i 'm a grown woman . adriana : i just came to tell you that it seems i may be hired here as a nurse . gabi : mommy , that 's great . jj : yeah , yeah , totally is . adriana : and i 'm happy to see the two of you looking so well . gabi : hmm . adriana : look at her sleeping so peacefully .

[ clears throat ] kate : okay . deimos : this is how i do business . kate : by keeping secrets from your business partner ? what about your wife ? deimos : i do n't know . i 've never had one before . kate : you know ... when i found out what you did to maggie and to victor , it gave me pause . deimos : hmm . kate : i 've been loyal to you . deimos : hmm . what i 've done may give you pause , but it also excites you . kate : you know , i do n't think that you went after me because of my good looks . i think you saw someone who was up to being your lady macbeth . deimos : it 's true . kate : i saw that . deimos : what 's that ? kate : i saw that look in your eyes , just for a moment . i scare you , do n't i ? gabi : mommy , i 'm really happy that you 're back but ... you ca n't treat me like i 'm 16 , okay ? those days are over . jj : and if this is about me , i do n't know what you 've heard , but i have turned my life around just like gabi has . and i 'd never hurt her or ari . adriana : i saw how good you were to them , even when you were sick . gabi : so , mommy , can you accept that jj and i are a couple ? adriana : um ... only if he 's brave enough to come back for another meal with the hernandez family . jj : are you guys gon na yell at each other like you did before ? adriana : mm , probably . gabi : [ laughs ] jj : awesome . adriana : [ laughs ] deimos : if we 're gon na get married , there are gon na have to be some rules . kate : ah . well , i break rules . that 's just the way i am . deimos : too bad . because you 're gon na have to sign a prenup anyway . kate : a prenup ? deimos : mm - hmm . kate : that 's for gold diggers . i can take care of myself . deimos : oh , come on , kate . i 'm a very rich man now . kate : oh , i see . so you think i 'm just interested in your money . deimos : [ laughs ] i 'd be an idiot to believe that 's not part of it . kate : oh , what about me ? how do i know you 're not after my money ? deimos : fine , protect yourself . draw up your own prenup . kate : dueling prenups ? we 're just talking about getting married and that 's what we 're -- that 's what we 're discussing now . deimos : we do n't trust each other , kate . it 's what makes life exciting . kate : [ laughs ] deimos : how about another glass of champagne ? kate : sure . deimos : to us .

[ both chuckle ] dario : absolutely . what changed your mind ? i mean , i get that you do n't want me to leave salem and we 're friends , but -- abigail : well , it 's partly that , but i also knew that if you went to mexico , your life would be in danger because of the people you crossed . dario : yeah , you already knew that . it was something else . abigail : i ... i found out that chad and gabi are both in greece . and since they 're moving on with their lives the way that i think that they should , i figured that it was time for me to do the same . dario : i know that hurts . i 'm sorry . abigail : you do n't have to apologize . it was my decision . and i still -- i think that i 'm doing the right thing for chad and for thomas and for myself . dario : he 's an idiot . you know that . abigail : no , he 's not . he ca n't help the way that he feels . that man wanted to love me with his whole heart , but he could n't because of the way he felt for gabi , so , you know . anyway , i figured i 'm not really planning to get involved with anyone anytime soon , so i might as well help you out of a jam . god knows i owe you . dario : [ sighs ] not as much as i owe you . kate : what are you doing , looming over me like that ? andre : projecting ill will . i was so looking forward to that well - deserved vacation , exploring the inca ruins in machu picchu , but no , i had to hear that chad flew all the way to greece in search of a cursed amulet . kate : well , i guess the jewelers here were all out of cursed amulets . andre : this is n't funny . and you sent chad on his blessing too , did n't you ? kate : he 's a grown man . he makes his own decisions . andre : well , this was a terrible one . i knew if he came in possession of that amulet , it would be the total ruin of our family . that 's why i flew to greece . kate : oh , my god . andre : so i could stop him . kate : i think that was an overreaction . andre : this is a matter of life and death . how could you have sent chad into such danger ? kate : because i do n't believe in curses , all right ? but i do believe in profits . and if we get that amulet before deimos does , we 're going to make a fortune from it . now , did he get it ? andre : no , thank god . you may not believe in curses , but that amulet ruins the lives of anyone who ever comes in contact with it . give me the amulet ! chad : amulet ? i do n't know what you 're talking about . you know damn well what i 'm talking about . hand it over . chad : look , i think maybe you just got the wrong room , okay ? why do n't i just call down -- stop being a smart - ass , dimera , or i 'll slice the little lady 's throat with you watching , huh ? chad : okay . wyatt : our man theo here arranged for passes to the water park . it 's a great way to kick off the summer , do n't you think ? claire : yes ! theo , that 's awesome . thank you . how much do we owe you ? wyatt : no , they 're passes . they 're free . claire : [ laughs ] wow , okay , well , we do n't have coffee or really anything , for that matter , so can we order some food ? wyatt : there 's that new gourmet sandwich place that just opened up . claire : sure , whatever , yeah . ciara : oh , yeah , i walked by there yesterday . they had a notice saying they were hiring . i was thinking of getting a job for the summer . theo : yeah , i 'm looking online for a job . ciara : oh . claire : i was hoping that i 'd have a music contract by now , but i do n't . so , uh , guess i 'm looking for work too . theo : what about you , wyatt ? you gon na get a job ? wyatt : no . no , i think it goes against my principles . see , i think god gave us the summer to relax , recharge our batteries ... contemplate .

[ dramatic music ] abigail : um , i do have one more thing i wanted to mention . i am technically still married , though i have begun divorce proceedings . [ clears throat ] gilman : really ? abigail : yeah . i was married when i had met dario -- not happily . and my husband was in love with another woman , and that hurt me very much . and at the time , dario was the only person i could turn to . and he comforted me and supported me , and that ultimately led to an affair , which i know is not very moral , but , hey , the heart wants what it wants , does n't it ? gilman : so i 've been told . abigail : yeah . and i - i do -- i have a son , so it 's really important to me that the affair not be made public . gilman : we 're not in the gossip business , ma'am . well , that 's all the time we have for today , but we will meet again . and i will have many more questions for you both . i have to make sure this engagement , your upcoming marriage is n't a sham . dario : that 's fine . trust me , no one can fake how much i love this woman . abigail : [ chuckles softly ] [ dramatic music ] kate : so i understand that andré traveled to greece to try to persuade you not to pursue the amulet . did he succeed ? chad : he thinks he did . well , i let him think that he won , but that 's , uh -- that 's just too much profit to turn away , so ... i have the amulet . kate : good . chad : but deimos is still after it . he actually sent some knife - wielding maniac to try to get it back . kate : are you all right ? chad : we 're fine . and , uh -- and he does n't have the amulet . gabi actually had it in her purse the whole time . so he just got an empty box . kate : gabi 's with you ? that 's great . chad : yeah , she , uh -- she stowed away in the plane . sonny , paul , jj , lani , eli , they actually came here to track down deimos . kate : well , maybe that 's going to give you some time to spend together , maybe rekindle the romance . chad : gabi and eli -- kate : with a clear conscience since abigail has moved on with the divorce . chad : you heard . kate : yes . and i know that you 're hurting , but it really is the best thing for everyone involved , chad . chad : you know , i came here for business , and , uh , you know , gabi 's moved on . she 's with eli . eli : i 'm sorry i 've been so caught up in the investigation that i have n't been able to spend any time with you . gabi : you know i did n't come here for a vacation . plus , i 'm still really mad that jj 's keeping me away from working with all of you . eli : well , you have chad to keep you company . what have you two been up to ? gabi : are you giving me the third degree ? eli : no , i thought i just asked a simple question . gabi : look ... [ sighs ] i was in his room and on his bed because i hurt my ankle . and he was hugging me because a man just threatened us with a knife , okay ? eli : i believe that . i just saw ... a spark . gabi : eli , i do n't know how you can say that . eli : gabi , i can tell that you 're still in love with him and that that 's not gon na change . which is why ... i ca n't see you anymore . abigail : you know , i think officer gilman already smells a rat . dario , i do n't think we 're gon na be able to pull this off . dario : what , you did n't think i was convincing when i pleaded my love to you ? gilman did . because i am . abigail : you know , i got to get going . but i 'm still worried about that immigration guy . dario : yeah , listen , we 'll know more after our next appointment . [ soft dramatic music ] kate : immigration ? wyatt : [ laughs ] [ cell phone beeps ] ciara : hey , aunt maggie said that they opened the smith island cabin for the summer . wyatt : wait , does that mean we get to finally go fishing ? ciara : sure does . i ca n't believe you like fishing as much as i do . wyatt : it just proves that we are perfect for each other . claire : [ chuckles ] are n't they cute ? theo : i think we should all go fishing . wyatt : not really what i had in mind , dude . i was thinking maybe you and i could go up to the cabin . you know , make a weekend of it . claire : ooh , well , that sounds romantic . theo : no , that sounds like a terrible idea ! claire : uh , theo , that 's none of our business , actually . theo : they just started dating . ciara : look , theo , i know you 're looking out for me , but you do n't have to . i feel very safe with wyatt . wyatt : you heard her , theo . besides , claire 's right . it 's really none of your business . let 's go get the takeout . ciara : actually , why do n't you guys go ? i 'd like to talk to theo . wyatt : sure . uh , you ready to go , claire ? claire : uh , yeah , sure . wyatt : we 'll be right back . [ soft dramatic music ] theo : so ... why do you want to talk to me alone ? ciara : because you 've been acting really weird ever since wyatt and i started dating . you 've made all sorts of excuses why ... but i do n't believe a single one of them anymore . so no more pretending , theo , no more lies . just tell me the real reason you have a problem with wyatt . gabi : you have this -- you have this all wrong , eli . i 've told you , i 'm putting chad behind me and i 'm looking towards the future . eli : i 'm not saying that you tried to pull a fast one on me . i mean , you 've been up front with me about chad since the beginning . [ scoffs ] i just thought that i could make you forget about him . and i might have if he and abigail would have stayed married , but ... everything just changed when she filed for divorce . gabi : i 'm sorry , i just -- i do n't understand , because i thought you cared about me . and i do n't understand why you 're pushing me away . eli : because i do n't fight losing battles . i know you did n't want chad and abigail to get a divorce , but she did . so now ... there wo n't be anything keeping you and chad apart , including me . i had fun . no hard feelings . and i still think that you are amazing . but the best thing for everyone is just for me to remove myself from this equation . i hope you and chad are really happy . dario : so after the old man got busted , the feds started checking me out and realized i was n't a legal citizen because my mother was n't a legal citizen at the time of my birth and she did n't file the paperwork correctly after having me in mexico . kate : okay , look , i know your father 's not here to help you out , all right ? i get that . so i am going to help you . i am going to get you the best immigration lawyer there is . dario : no , no , really , really , you do n't need -- kate : no , no , no , i have to , for your father 's sake . dario : i do n't need you to get me a lawyer . abigail and i are getting married . kate : she 's going to marry you ? i mean , it 's a very dicey thing , going into a sham marriage . but then again , it 's very convenient if you 're already in love with her . dario : there 's an old spanish expression : butt out . kate : hey , you know , i was going to get you a high - powered lawyer , but obviously you would rather trick her into marrying you , so ... i think there 's a lot more here . why do n't you level with me ? hmm ? dario : okay . i 'll tell you the truth . i already have a lawyer . and he said all i have to do is refile my paperwork to get my citizenship . but then i thought about those stories where couples get married to get a green card and ... they end up falling in love with each other . kate : and since you 're already in love with her , you 're just hoping to make it reciprocal . dario : i do love her , and i will do anything for her . i 'll try to be a good stepfather to thomas . i just need to get her under the same roof as me . so now that you know the truth ... you gon na bust me ? gabi : take this . take it . i do n't want it . chad : what ? gabi : i do n't want it . chad : what 's wrong ? gabi : eli just broke up with me . so i definitely think that thing is cursed . chad : well , wait , so what do you mean , eli broke up with you ? gabi : yeah . he just -- he does n't see a future for us . chad : damn , gabi , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . gabi : you know , i really liked getting to know him . and i thought that there was a future with him , but ... i guess now i do n't even know what to think . ciara : theo , you got to tell me what 's going on . theo : i do n't want to talk about wyatt . ciara : do n't shut down on me . i 've known you forever , and i know that change is hard for you . theo : he 's not right for you , ciara . ciara : that 's not true . he 's everything that i 've ever wanted in a boyfriend . why ca n't you just be happy for me , try to make him feel welcomed ? theo : ciara , please , you have to trust me on this , okay ? he 's not good for you . ciara : that is not your call to make . it 's mine . and i think he is good for me . that 's why i 'm falling in love with him . theo : no , he 's conning you . he 's conning you , ciara . he 's not who you think he is . ciara : [ sighs ] kate : so you lied to abigail , you manipulated her , took advantage of her good heart and her vulnerability just to get what you want . i knew i liked you . dario : [ laughs ] you 'll keep it quiet , what the lawyer said ? kate : well , i do n't see any reason to tell abigail , since she is getting divorced , she 's going off on her own . and if you marry her , that will free chad to move on too . dario : with my sister . kate : yeah , now , i know you do n't like that , you do n't like two of them together , but if you want abigail , you 're going to have to make trade - offs . dario : i understand . kate : good . we 'll keep in touch . and i am going to get you such a great wedding present . dario : [ laughs ] [ soft dramatic music ] gabi : so what , uh , happened with the police investigation ? chad : well , i described the guy , but they do n't seem to have much hope they 're gon na find him , especially since he 's working for deimos . gabi : okay , so what happens when they open the box and realize the amulet 's not in there ? chad : well , that 's why we need that jet to get fixed so we can get the hell out of here and back to salem . gabi : chad , do you really think this is worth the trouble ? chad : $ 20 million ? hell yeah , i think it 's worth the trouble . gabi : i mean , it 's not like a good - luck charm . look , first you get your engines -- they have problems . then abigail is divorcing you , i sprain my ankle , and now eli dumps me ? chad : okay , yeah , but we -- we have n't been thrown in a meat locker . neither one of us has been poisoned . gabi : that is not funny . chad : it 's kind of funny . gabi : no , it 's not . it could be leading up to something . what if this is a warning sign to get out before you -- chad : okay , look -- gabi : before you do n't have a chance to get out ? chad : hey , let 's just take stock in everything that has happened here , okay ? i 've been dumped . you 've been dumped . gabi : great . chad : you look like you could use a drink . i know i could use a drink . can we please go -- let 's just go grab a drink . gabi : and , what , you 're gon na take that amulet with you ? chad : well , i sure as hell ca n't leave it here . gabi : fine . fine . but since i saved you $ 20 million , you 're gon na buy . it 's your turn . let 's go . chad : deal . gabi : get out of here . ciara : you think wyatt 's conning me ? that 's ridiculous . he 's so sweet . why would he do that ? theo : [ sighs ] ciara , it 's all a lie . ciara : okay , i know people lie on their dating profiles , but wyatt -- wyatt 's not like that . theo : no , he only messaged you on the site because i asked him to . ciara : what ? theo : i set you two up . ciara : you set us up ? theo : you were n't happy , and i just wanted you to be happy because i 'm so happy with claire . and i wanted to do something wonderful for you , so i kept it a secret . [ door clicks open ] but i was all wrong about him . he is n't anything like the guy you think he is . ciara : but we have so much in common . theo : no , no . you only think that because i told him everything about you . i told him what to say . i told him what you liked . he lied about everything . we 've both been lying to you this whole time . ciara : [ sighs ] [ dramatic music ]

sami : a drink drink ? tony : yes , whatever you like . sami : well , that is what i would like , but i better not . alcohol at this time of day totally wipes me out . tony : ah , i understand . so , why do n't you sit over here and tell me what 's troubling you ? sami : well , a lot of things , unfortunately . i mean , not that my life is n't great right now , because it is . brandon and i are engaged . and that 's a really positive thing , is n't it ? tony : oh , i should hope so . sami : how lucky can a girl get , right ? tony : but ? sami : but i ca n't stop worrying about all the problems out there waiting to jump us . tony : what problems are they ? well , sami , if you do n't tell me your problems , i ca n't help you . i promise you , whatever you say will not leave this room . sami : just stuff from the past . tony : oh . you mean when brandon slept with my sister ? sami : that only happened one time , and it was when brandon and i were split up . tony : but you are worried that it could possibly happen again . sami : no . no , i 'm not . you know , lexie and brandon are totally over . lexie is n't a threat to us anymore , and she never will be again . nicole : oh , yes , i 'm so thankful for the wonderful life you 've given me . your kindness and support ... oh , dear , i 'm starting to cry . victor : starting to bore me , nicole . nicole : really . you 're bored ? you know , you 've got a wife younger than springtime , and you 're powerful as hell . gee , what does it take to keep your life interesting , victor ? oh , wait , i know . maybe you 'd like a good healthy fight . victor : nico ! comen n here . nicole : oh , come on , huh ? let 's get something started here , victor . what do you say ? a real knockdown drag - out . victor : nico ! nicole : i do n't like to be ignored , victor . you know that 's one of my pet peeves . did you hear me , victor ? oh . no , i guess not , because you do n't hear me or see me or feel a damn thing about me , you bastard ! victor : nico , come here ! nicole : maybe you 'll feel this . yeah . that got your attention , did n't it ? shawn - d : i 'm not interested . okay ? but thanks anyway . c cassie : oh , we could have fun . we could go to the movies , get some food ... shawn - d : okay , i guess you did n't hear me , but i 'm not interested . cassie : okay , i get it . you think i 'm hitting on you . shawn - d : now , why would i think that ? cassie : you have a huge ego . shawn - d : oh , you know , i 'm just -- cassie : okay , wait , wait , wait , wait . i understand why you would be , uh , a little suspicious , considering i had a huge crush on you for a long time , and i acted like a total idiot . but that was just because you were the first guy that i ever met -- the first one i kissed . shawn - d : we did n't even kiss . cassie : i know , i know , it was mouth - to - mouth resuscitation , and there was no sex or ... affection involved . whatever . anyway , i understand now . it took me a long time , but you 're not interested in me . you love belle , and , as much as i like you , i 'm not going to waste my time chasing a guy who 's never going to love me ... which is actually too bad , because you 're probably one of the few men my father would approve of . shawn - d : what are you talking about ? i 'm a brady . cassie : well , hey , there you have it . he would absolutely forbid me from seeing you . so , what do you say ? let 's just be friends and hang out . shawn - d : i can't . i shouldn't . you know , i got ta start studying because finals are coming up . cassie : oh , i could help you . shawn - d : like we did last time ? cassie : when i kissed you . shawn - d : yeah . cassie : yeah , well , i 'm a pushy girl . shawn - d : yeah . cassie : look , even thinking about that makes me so embarrassed . i promise you , it will never happen again . i 'm totally over you . shawn - d : yeah ? cassie : remember last semester when i helped you bring your grades up from c 's to b 's ? shawn - d : yeah . cassie : so , what if this time i concentrated on the books ? no more kissy- face . maybe you can get a 's . shawn - d : okay . fine . cassie : really ? you 're going to let me help you ? shawn - d : okay , i do n't need your help . but we can hithehe books together . cassie : whatever . shawn - d : and i just have to tell you beforehand , i have a very unconventional way of studying . cassie : what do you mean ? shawn - d : i 'll show you . let 's go . brady : chloe , you can do this . chloe : no , i ca n't , brady . i could n't sing any high notes . did n't you notice ? brady : that 's because you were nervous . chloe : i 've been nervous before , and i 've never lost my voice . brady : you have n't lost your voice . all right , think of it as an old car . you pull it out of the garage , you try to startt t up , it sputters . but as soon as you get it out to the open road , it 's -- it 's purring like a kitten in no time . chloe : brady , i 'm not a car . you ca n't just adjust my spark plugs to get me to sing again . my illness , the radiation , theransplant -- it all must 've affected my vocal cords . brady : that is absolutely ridiculous . chloe : no , it 's not , brady ! i ca n't sing again ! just face it ! brady : i 'm sorry , david . i guess we wo n't be needing you after all . david : it 's no problem . just , uh , let me know if anything changes . brady : here . david : nah , it 's okay . it 's all right . good luck . chloe : thanks . okay , can we leave now ? brady : absolulyly not . stop it . chloe : brady , i told you , i 'm not going to do this . brady : close your eyes . chloe : why ? brady : just do it . close your eyes . brady : now breathe . chloe : [ exhales ] brady : relax . chloe : [ exhales ] brady : one can have a dream , baby two can make that dream so real one can talk about being in love two can say how it really feels sing with me . chloe and brady : one can wish upon a star two can make that wish come true one can stand alone in the dark chloe : two can make the light shine through chloe and brady : itakes two , baby it takes two , baby me and you just takes two chloe : it takes two baby it takes two , baby to make a dream come true i did it , brady . brady : i noticed . chloe : i can sing . brady : i never doubted it for a second . nico : mr. kiriakis . call an ambulance . i said , call an ambulance ! victor : no . no ambulance . nicole : victor . sami : look , i do n't want to talk about lexie , okay ? i know she 's your sister , but she has been a tho in my side for a very long time . tony : hmm . but we must talk about alexandra , must n't we ? otherwise , how do we get to the root of your concerns ? sami : i told you , lexie is no longer a problem for me and brandon . tony : how can you be so sure ? sami : because she 's taken care of . tony : exactly how have you taken care of my sister , sami ? claire : we 've got teeratures today e town ! tony : answer me , samantha . what did you do to lexie ? why is she not a threat to you anymore ? sami : i did n't do anything , tony . brandon and i dealt with the lexie problem together by talking about it in an open and honest way . tony : [ laughing ] oh , open and honest . sami : stop laughing at me . tony : oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean toe rude . sami : that 's okay . but you keep treating me like i 'm the same liar that i 've always been , and that 's not fair , tony . i 've changed . i 'm -- i 'm a changed woman , partly due to maturity , but also because of brandon . tony : i can understand how one human being influences another . i 'm sorry that i made light of a very serious declaration . may i offer my sincerest heartfelt congratulations on your engagement ? sami : thank y .. i appreciate it . tony : i mean , i know there are people out there in salem who assume that something will happen to rip you and brandon apart before you get to your wedding . sami : more than a few . tony : i just want you to know i 'm not one of them . i see it very clearly -- you and brandon getting married with no interruptions , no problems , and then ... sami : and then we live happily ever after . tony : exactly . oh , you 're a lucky , lucky girl . cassie : coming to the pier -- is this the new way of studying you were talking about ? what 's up with all those baseballs ? shawn - d : i bet you i can put every single one of these balls on that barge out there . cassie : yes , i 'm sure you can , but why does that have anything -- shawn - d : stee - rike ! cassie : you are going to hit somebody . shawn - d : no , no , no , no , that 's a garbage scow out there . there 's nobody on it . go ahead , ask me some questions . cassie : here ? shawn - d : yeah . cassie : you mean ... shawn - d : just out of the book . cassie : oh . okay , um ... let me see . let me get you a good one . shawn - d : all right . cassie : okay . who was the first chief justice of the supreme court ? shawn - d : that would be john jay , who resigned in 1795 to run for governor of new york . cassie : right . and who did john adams appoint to lead the court in 1801 ? shawn - d : it 's john marshall . cassie : and what was his most important contribution to the court ? shawn - d : the notion of a single opinion of the court . previously , the justices , much like the english system , had multiple opinions , none of which being the actual view of the institution . cassie : ha ha . you do n't need my coaching at all . do you have crib notes written on those balls ? shawn - d : uh , no . see , i 'm just incredibly smart . cassie : yes , you are . shawn - d : i figured out that when i 'm active , it helps me concentrate . it sort of , like , helps blood flow to my brain or something . cassie : ha ha ha . will you help me to throw like that ? shawn - d : well , you are already incredibly intelligent . cassie : i 'm serious . shawn - d : yeah , yeah , sure . here , take the ball . cassie : okay . shawn - d : all right . now , you want to hold the ball nice and tight , keep your eye on the target , and then you just let ' er rip . cassie : strike ! ha ha ha . okay , it 's my turn . shawn - d : yeah , all right . have you done this before ? cassie : uh , no . is that a problem ? shawn - d : no , i was just asking . cassie : okay , how 's this ? shawn - d : well , you , um ... here , you want to turn sideways . that way you can rotate into the throw . cassie : oka i have a question . um , how come philip does n't have a girlfriend ? i mean , why would a guy like him have to go on `` love is blind `` ? shawn - d : i thought we were playing ball . cassie : well , we are , but am i not allowed to talk ? shawn - d : philip probably has n't had a chance to meet anyone since he enlisted . so what you want to do is you want to transfer all your weight to your back foot . cassie : okay . how come he and chloe broke up ? i mean , i never heard the story . shawn - d : she fell for brady . philip had a really hard tim dealing with that . that 's probably why he joined the marines -- to get over her . cassie : do you think he has ? shawn - d : yeah , it seems that way . whoa , that was right on the center of the barge ! are you sure you have n't done this before ? cassie : positive . shawn - d : 'cause that was pretty impressive . cassie : yeah , well , if i want something bad enough , i make it happen . belle : so , okay , i used to think that these , like , ribbon - cutting ceremonies were kind of dorky , but , um , after actually doing one , i know they are . philip : yeah . maybe it would n't be so bad if it was something , you know , more important than a supermarket . belle : i think this whole fame thing is highly overrated . philip : yeah . before i joined the marines , i thk k i would have gotten really into it , but now it 's ... belle : philip , why did you enlist ? i mean , i know part of the reason was chloe . philip : yeah . that was part of it . but , you know , also ... i just decided it was time to try to find some meaning in my life . you know , that 's not easy when you 're a kiriakis . everything is handed to you except responsibility . but , i mean , you know all this , belle . i told you before i left . belle : well , not in those words , exactly . philip : in the marines , i did n't start off any better or more important than any of the other recruits . you know , my name or -- or my bank account did n't mean squat . it was all about proving my own worth . i think that 's been very good for me . belle : this is definitely not the philip kiriakis i have known all these years . philip : yes , it is . i 'm still me ... maybe just a little more mature . belle : maybe ? philip : some people serve their country overseas , some do it here at home . they 're equally important . i 'm proud of my mission . belle : what is it ? philip : sorry . that 's classified . love to cool down nico : that cut 's pretty deep . we 'd better get you to the hospital . victor : no , no hospitals . call dr . price . he 'll make a house call . victor : you will be punished for this . tony : you know , i 'm glad that everything has come together between you and brandon , but i 'm a bit confused . if everything is going smoothly , why all the talk about needing a sympathetic ear ? sami : i do n't know . when we talked at rex 's luncheon and you told me about wanting to break up my mom and john , i thought you 'd understand my need to keep brandon and lexie apart no matter what , even if she is your sister . tony : ha ha ha . i 'm even more confused now . i thought you said that everything between brandon and my sister was ancient history . sami : it is , so forget i said anything . never mind . i am doing great . i do n't need anything . everything is perfect . i have brandon and will , and not even that lamebrain lucas roberts can mess up my life now . tony : ah , good for you . sami : well , it 's been nice talking to you . i , um , i should get going . tony : it was lovely seeing you . sami : yeah , well , we should , uh , have lunch sometime . tony : i would love that . i really would . sami : i would , too . i 'll see you , tony . lucas : oh , my . was that incredibly informative . i had no idea that lexie and brandon slept together . tony : live and learn . lucas : what i 'd really like to learn is what exactly did sami do to take care of lexie ? tony : you know , i 'm taking you into my confidence , bringing you into my private business . i 'm doing it becae e i 'm committed to working with you . i hope that commitment is mutual . lucas : absolutely . and you know what ? to prove it , i 'll let you in on one of my personal goals -- to see sami brady crash and burn . shawn - d : yeah . so , how was the supermarket opening ? belle : it was actually pretty silly . shawn - d : no kidding . philip : you know what ? i got to get back to the base . cassie : i 'll give you a lift . philip : oh , i do n't need one . i took a car from the base motor pool . cassie : oh . philip : it was fun , belle . thanks . belle : yeah . philip : i 'll see you later , shawn . cassie : i 'm taking off , too . bye . belle : bye , guys . cassie : you know , the next time you want to come into town , just let me know . i 'll drive you . philip : okay , i will . cassie : okay . belle : you know , i ca n't believe how much philip 's changed . he 's so mature and committed . i think joining the marines was the best thing he 's ever done for himself . shawn - d : you really think so ? belle : definitely . shawn - d : hmm . so maybe , uh ... belle : what ? shawn - d : well , maybe i should go back to my original plan of joining the merchant marine . belle : shawn , what the -- shawn - d : i was just wondering that maybe you 'd think that that would be the best thing i could do for myself . first there was this . then this . as a result . canadians spent much of last summer indoors . can we come out ' n play this year ? we 'll find out . tonight 's global national with kevin newman . brady and chloe : one can stand alone in the dark two can make the light shine through it takes two , baby it takes two , baby me and you it just takes two it takes two , baby it takes two , baby chloe : to make a dream come true brady : ha ha ha . chloe : just me and you victor : take mrs . kiriakis upstairs and lock her in her room . nicole : you ca n't be serious . victor , it was an accident . i got carried away . i - i 'm sorry . you ca n't lock me up . i 'll go nuts . victor : too damn bad . nicole : victor , please do n't ! i 'm sorry ! it was an accident ! i 'm sorry ! [ sobbing ] do n't lock me up ! sami : brandon , i just called to say that i love you and i want us to get married right away . i ca n't wait to be your wife . well , that 's it , and i know i 'll see you later . bye . lucas : over the years , sami has made my life a living hell , and i have never been in the position to pay her back until now . you do n't have a problem with that , do you ? tony : why should i ? all i need of her is to get information on john , and once that 's taken place and i 'm finished with her , she 's all yours . lucas : great . that 's all i need to know . tony : by the way , if you need any assistance , i 'll be glad to help . lucas : well , thank you . that sounds like a plan . tony : so would you care for a drink ? some water ? i 'm not quite sure whether you are on or off the wagon . lucas : uh , always up for a celebration . tony : there you are . lucas : thank you . tony : so ... to john and sami . lucas : they 'll never know what hit them . belle : shawn , how could you even ask me that ? i love you , and i want you here near me , not off somewhere with the merchant marine . shawn - d : then just stop talking about philip . belle : look , this is n't going to go on very much longer . `` love is blind `` is almost over . shawn - d : i 'm okay with it . belle : yeah ? shawn - d : i am . i really am . belle ... are -- are they around ? can any -- can anyone see us ? belle : why ? shawn - d : well , you know , suddenly i have this urge to , um , you know ... belle : oh . shawn - d : and it 's been made very clear to me that i 'm not allowed ... belle : uh - oh . shawn - d : yeah , which makes me want to do it even more . belle : then just do it . do n't be scared . shawn - d : yeah ? i think i 'm going to have to bite the bullet here , throw caution to the wind , you know , or whatever the expression is . belle : go for it , big guy . belle : [ giggling ] rex : mimi , i 'm sorry . i do n't have time for you right now . mimi : are you 100 % sure about that ? brady : you need to sing for cecilia marin . ladies and gentlemen , miss chloe lane .

[ laughs ] i , i ... i really wanted to make amends with both of you . eric : listen , we 're good . i know you 've talked to her . and even if you could n't get through to her , it 's pretty clear right now you 're the only person that she trusts or will talk to . brady : that 's gon na pass . it 's just the grief ... eric : yeah , well , i do n't know . i mean , it could get worse before it gets better . i mean , she has to face the sheer hell of that funeral tomorrow . as much as i want to -- i want to be there , i just do n't want to make it worse . brady : i get that , but what is it gon na do to you if you do n't go ? i mean , i mean -- i know how much you cared about holly . eric : i did . i truly did . can i ask you one more thing ? brady : what ? eric : can you go back to that inn and try talking to her one more time ? nicole : [ gasps ] wow . i am so attracted to men who brag about their sexual conquests . ah , my gosh , it 's right up there with bad breath and dandruff . [ gasps ] xander : okay , now you 're starting to get on my nerves . nicole : oh , good . then we 're even . actually , you know what , no , we 're not even . because you 've been getting on my nerves since the first day i laid eyes on you . getting on my nerves is actually an understatement . you 've been making my skin crawl and turning my stomach since the first day i saw you , and since we 're talking about sexual conquests -- sarah horton ? [ laughing ] oh , has there even been a simpier little simp ? come on . xander : book by its cover . i 'll have you know that that simpy little simp put some rather deep scratches in my back . nicole : okay , please , not again . xander : oh , and on the subject of simps , really ? daniel , br -- eric ? ! [ scoffs ] not exactly macho men on parade , is it ? nicole : eric is history . `` how can i be with you when i ca n't even bear to look at you ? and my precious holly would still be alive if it were n't for you . `` [ sobs ] [ laughing ] i mean , come on . i do n't even actually give a damn about that whiny little brat .

[ stammering ] this is just like what happened this morning , right ? about forgetting about holly ? sonny : yeah . and i do n't want to upset you , but i think we should go back to the hospital . marlena : i think that 's a good idea . will : grandma , i 'm so sorry . i love you . and i need you . and you 've always been there for me 100 % , and to have blamed you for any of this is so -- marlena : honey , honey . i love you more than anything in the world . we will sort this out , okay ? we will do that . we 'll do it together . we 'll go with you . will : [ whispering ] okay . [ sighs deeply ] sonny : we 're gon na get through this , okay ? we 're gon na do it together . will : i 'm scared . sonny : i know . i know . [ somber music ] brady : look , sure , i 'll go talk to her again about you , but i do n't think now 's the right time , eric . i mean , nicole is still -- she 's really raw , you know ? eric : so you think i should go to the funeral . brady : yeah . yeah , i do . i mean , look . she 's upset now . but i think deep down , she knows how much you cared for holly . and it may not happen tomorrow , but i think someday , it will be important to her that you were there . eric : you 're right , it 's not about me . i just pray to god that she can get through tomorrow . she 's saying goodbye to her ... precious daughter that ... i just hope she does n't break . [ giggling ] [ snorts ] oh , my gosh . xander : well , are n't you a sick little puppy . laughing at a child 's funeral . nicole : what ? why not laugh ? it 's not like she 's really dead . oh , do n't judge me . do you have any idea how exhausting all that weeping and gnashing of teeth was ? what , i do n't deserve a little comic relief ? come on . xander : how difficult that must have been for you . nicole : yeah , well , actually it was . i mean , [ sighs ] you start to act miserable , after a while , you feel miserable . i was so happy when i actually got to switch gears and tear into eric . it was actually fun . he was so pathetically sad and guilt - ridden . xander : yeah , to put it succinctly , he 's a wimp . nicole : yeah . when you 're right , you 're right . he 's a wimp . no backbone at all . i mean , he made the decision to give the kid to chloe because he thought it was the right thing to do . so why not just stand by that and tell me if i do n't like it , i can go to hell ? i would actually respect him more . but no , no . no , he had to whine and cry and grovel and whatever else -- `` oh , forgive me , forgive me . i 'm so sorry . i 'm such a bad person . `` blah blah blah . ugh . you know as far as i 'm concerned , sarah can have him . rex : right . okay , thank you . that was sonny . he 's bringing will back in . he 's had another memory lapse , and apparently a personality change . i got ta call kayla . sarah : i 'll notify admitting . rex : thank you . oh , damn . sarah : what ? rex : i told my mom that i would call her and keep her posted on will . sarah : i 'm on it . rex : thank you . sarah : mm - hmm . [ soft dramatic music ] kate : maggie , this is victor 's home . he asked me to be here . maggie : and i 'm telling you to leave . kate : victor ? maggie : if you two want to conduct business , then meet him at the office . you 're not welcome in my home . this is my home . kate : and it 's victor 's home too . maggie : leave . now . kate : um , i think we need to get past this , maggie . maggie : why ? so you can get me all warm and fuzzy and forgiving ? and then find a way to humiliate me ? well , kate ... i am done with the warm , fuzzy , and forgiving , especially where you 're concerned . kate : you know , i was just referring to the fact that my son is going to marry your daughter . maggie : unfortunately . unfortunately . the worst mistake my daughter has ever made . i really do n't know what 's happened to her self - respect , frankly . tolerating your son 's horrible behavior . kate : well , i can see that you are still very upset about holly . i 'm gon na go . maggie : stay gone . kate : i ... will be in touch . [ somber music ] maggie : i mean it , victor . this ca n't happen again . you 're too smart not to know that she 's up to something . so do n't pull this naive act on me . victor : what act ? maggie : this . this act right here . `` oh , i do n't know what 's bothering you , maggie . you just must be overreacting . `` it 's such crap ! do n't treat me like i 'm stupid . victor : everything is on the table . of course she 's after brady 's job ; she 's not trying to hide that . maggie : victor ! you do n't see it ? she 's after you ! i wanted more from sonny : and it was clear , he did n't remember what happened . will : can you tell 'em how i acted ? sonny : he was , um , he was furious with marlena . he said everything was her fault . will : which i know is not true . i ... i begged you to give me the serum . and you had nothing to do with the second dose . that 's on me . i -- i did that . marlena : please do n't worry about this . it does n't matter what you said . all that matters is what 's happening right now . rex : will , i talked to kayla , and she agrees that we need to proceed with another radiation treatment , and we 're hopeful that once we shrink the tumor , these side effects will clear up . marlena : maybe there 's some chemical in the tumor that can give us a key to all this . john : yeah , but the thing is , the fda , they 're not gon na release the drug . rex : i 'm gon na keep hounding them on that . john : that 's good . rex : yeah . kate : rex , rolf was your mentor . is there a chance that you worked on the serum with him ? rex : not that i knew of . i mean , he was very secretive . sometimes i was doing research , and did n't even know why i was doing it . kate : well , then , perhaps you did . rex : i do n't know . i mean , i ... kayla was the one who saw the parallel in the biopsy . and i looked at the same report . i did n't see any red flags . kate : okay , well , it was just a thought . rex : you know what ? it 's a good one , though . i 'm gon na go back in my notes from when i worked with him , 'cause i know what i 'm looking for now . sarah : i think right now , we need to let will rest . john : yeah . will : bye . [ solemn music ] man , i 'm tired . see you in the morning ? sonny : i 'm not going anywhere . as long as you 're here , so am i . victor : look , i know that you 're upset . and that i act like a jerk a lot , but i do n't think kate is interested in me . maggie : well then , why is it every time i turn around , there she is ? she 's gazing into your eyes , and she 's softly putting her hand on yours . victor : that does n't really matter . maggie : well ! what does really matter is that i came to tell you that my granddaughter had died , and you refused to come home with me . you stayed and had a drink with her instead . victor : i 'm sorry about that . maggie : well , i 'm not here for words , victor . i just want you to promise me -- promise me ! -- that you will stay away from her ! victor : i ca n't , damn it . brady hired xander . titan could go up in flames right in front of our faces . she 's the only one i can trust . i have to talk to her . maggie : talk to brady ! tell brady to fire xander ! victor : he wo n't do it ! if brady had n't hired xander , xander would 've turned nicole in for deimos 's murder . though i ca n't for the life of me figure out why he thinks she 'd need him . you put nicole and xander in a room in a bare- knuckled fight to the death , nicole would be home by cocktail time . nicole : okay , you can go ahead and open that other champagne bottle . i wan na look haggard tomorrow . xander : coming back from the dead ... it 's hardened you . nicole : you try it . it takes a toll . xander : damn . i 'm a much better fit for sarah than eric . nicole : are we really going back there again ? xander : i felt a real connection to that woman . tremendous chemistry . i really have to believe that if eric had n't walked in on us the next morning that there would have been a round two . nicole : ugh . please . do not elaborate further . xander : well , you were desperate for all the gory details earlier . nicole : mmm ... i was just surprised that eric moved on so quickly after losing the love of his life . xander : mm , he is a fickle s - o ... b . nicole : yes . and in spite of being a man of deep faith , loyal to the core , the guy is a 24 carat phony , is what he is . so ... i guess that means i get to move on , too . calling all sunscreen haters . xander : so , i guess you 're not going to suggest to eric that you two try couples therapy . nicole : why do you keep banging on about ... oh , hmm . i get it . you want me to get eric out of the picture , so you could have frau doktor horton all to yourself . but do n't you think you should worry about rex ? i mean , she is engaged to him . xander : engaged , yeah , but eric 's the real competition . i saw what happened when he burst in on us in bed together . he looked like he wanted to take my head off . and she looked like she was into it . like she was a damsel in distress , and he was some knight trying to slay a dragon for her . not the typical reaction to a man standing up for his brother 's fiancée , no . he may be engaged to rex , but she wants eric . sarah : nicole , chloe , my mom ... i do n't know how they 're gon na get through that funeral . rex : i know . sarah : hey . [ sighs ] rex : what 's up ? sarah : my poor mom . i do n't think victor 's gon na be any help for her at all . rex : well , you 're gon na be there . tell you what . you look after your mom . and i 'll look after you . and we 'll all get through it . sarah : that sounds like a really good plan .

[ foreboding music ] [ scoffs ] limu emu & doug nicole : you can go now . tomorrow is going to be endless grief on parade . how tedious . xander : i know what you mean . i hate funerals , even when the person 's actually dead . nicole : y -- you know , maybe maggie will provide us with some excitement . xander : excitement ? nicole : mm - hmm . i saw her flirting with the vodka bottle . maybe she 'll make a drunken spectacle of herself . oh , it 's so nice to have something to look forward to . [ foreboding music ] brady : maggie , you still up ? hey , i was just , uh ... oh , maggie . maggie : [ sobs ] brady : hey . you all right ? maggie : it 's broken . it 's broken , brady . everything . it 's broken . will : what is happening to me ? i 'm forgetting things , i ... i yelled at grandma . it 's like ... it 's like i 'm not me anymore . sonny : but you heard rex . okay ? it 's the tumor . so once we 're able to -- will : what if we 're not able ? wh - what if they still ca n't fix it ? what if this is just how it 's gon na be for -- sonny : stop , stop it . no , no . okay ? you 're just scared , and that 's okay . we are going to get through this . right ? and right now , we should just get some sleep . will : you 're not gon na leave ? sonny : no . not gon na leave . will : thank you . sonny : you do n't have to thank me . there 's nowhere else i 'd rather be . [ gentle music ] john : let 's just hope that rex can find something in those files he has , huh ? marlena : yeah . i did n't want to say anything in front of will , but ... i 'm not holding out much hope for this . i mean , why would there be anything about this serum in those notes ? we need the diary . that 's where the formula is . john : well , that 's easier said than done . marlena : you know , if seth was the last one who had it , i just ca n't imagine why it would have disappeared into thin air . john : well , lucky for you , you 're married to someone who just might be able to help . no , no . scratch `` might . `` i know i can find that damn diary . rex : i really would have appreciated punching xander myself , but thank you for doing that and for looking after sarah . maybe now he 'll leave her the hell alone . eric : well , he was bothering nicole too . and thanks to brady , they 're getting a divorce . she wo n't ever have to deal with him ever again . nicole : fun 's over . xander : okay , okay . i 'm going . but remember , we 're partners for the long haul . nicole : emphasis on `` haul . `` xander : seeing as we 're still married for a little bit longer , how about a goodbye kiss ? nicole : how about a handshake ? ugh .

when i get overwhelmed , i just -- i tend to jump into bed with whoever 's kinda standing in front of me . like , when i found out that rex cheated on me , i jumped into bed with xander , as if rando sex that you regret ever makes the pain go away . brady : yeah , well , xander and victor made you fall in love with a baby that was n't yours , so ... that kinda pain does n't just go away , sarah . so it 's okay . sarah : neither does the pain of giving up the chance to raise your daughter with the woman you love . brady : you know , we 're not the only victims . maggie , uh -- i mean , they set out to protect maggie , but they ended up just compounding her guilt and her grief . sarah : i told my mom i forgave her . she still seems sad though . brady : it 's all got ta end . just victor and xander , their lies , their games , all their crap , it 's got ta end . and look , i know you and i decided to team up last night to take 'em down , but i know maggie is your mother and you love her , and she happens to be victor 's wife , so if you want out , i get it . it 's okay . sarah : my mom deserves so much better than a man who 's as toxic as victor . even things that he does in the name of love hurts her , so count me in because there is nothing that i want more than for victor and xander to pay for what they did to us . xander : maybe sarah reached out to brady about seeing the baby again . i can only imagine how much she misses her . victor : i doubt brady 's gon na let sarah anywhere near that little girl since she ran off with her . xander : still , it 's worth a try . sarah needs to know her mother 's innocent . victor : yeah , and i 'm sure you 're hoping that it 'll bump you back into her good graces . xander : what you said was true , we broke sarah 's heart and i -- and i ca n't forgive myself for that . so i 'm never gon na stop trying to make it up to her . i 'll never stop proving to sarah how much i love her . gabi : i had the drug that was going to get stefan 's memory back . kayla : stefan ? gabi : yeah , and i just needed one more minute , and i was gon na do it , and everything was gon na be all right . kayla : gabi , stefan , um ... stefan is dead . gabi : kayla , no he 's not . kayla : i was his attending physician . i know that he was brain dead , and you donated his heart to julie . do you remember ? gabi : you do n't understand . i saw rolf , he told me he saved stefan . kayla : that 's not possible . gabi : okay , this is wilhelm rolf we 're talking about . anything is possible with that man . he told me -- he swears he saved stefan . kayla : gabi , you know grief manifests itself in many different forms . gabi : kayla , this is not grief , and this is n't a hallucination . gabi : i 've seen him . he 's alive . and that was the drug to restore his memory . kayla : so how does ben weston fit into all this ? gabi : okay , well , i was about to inject him , and then ben took the syringe . he refused to give it back to me , he brought it back here , and i want it back . now . chad : luckily , ben was there and was able to stop gabi from injecting jake with whatever was in that syringe . abigail : so gabi tried to do the same thing that she did to me to this guy who looks like stefan ? why ? chad : who knows ? she needs to be stopped . eli : hey , we got your message . chad : hey , thanks for coming . i want gabi arrested now . eli : i know you 're angry , okay , but we do n't have any proof . chad : yeah , we do . she struck again last night . this time i can prove it . ben : hey , sorry i 'm late . ciara had me sampling wedding cake . jake : do n't sweat it . i still owe you for saving me from that syringe - wielding maniac . ben : glad i could help . she give you any more trouble after i left ? jake : eh , more of the same . still trying to convince me i really am her dead husband . ben : only problem with that theory is that your heart is beating in your chest , not someone else 's . jake : yeah . the way she talks , she actually believes it . ben : do n't tell me gabi 's starting to get to you . hey , are you actually thinking you could be stefan dimera ? we find ourselves in challenging times lani : ben as a witness to gabi trying to inject jake is a good start , but why did n't jake report it to the police ? eli : well , when i investigated the assault on ben at the garage , i got the impression that jake 's not a fan of the cops . chad : well , we do n't need jake ; we have ben . he 's a good enough witness . lani : and you said that ben turned the drug over to dr . evans . chad : yeah , it 's being analyzed as we speak , so that 's in then . we have her , right ? we have enough to put gabi behind bars . eli : we 'll check it out . lani : feel better . abigail : okay . chad : so then what ? we -- i mean , that 's great , right ? we have it , we -- we finally have enough to put gabi in prison . she ca n't hurt anyone else . abigail : it 's great - ish , sort of . i mean , i 'm still having hallucinations , and no one knows how to stop it . chad : actually , i may have a solution to that . ciara : you up for a visitor ? victor : hey , what a nice surprise . ciara : hi . how are you doing , grandpa ? victor : ready to get out of this joint . ciara : yeah , yeah , you must be driving them all crazy , huh ? victor : it 's a gift . ciara : so how 's maggie ? mom told me everything . you must be so relieved that she 's gon na be okay . victor : yeah , i just need to get her home so she can heal . ciara : i know . and i know how much you love her , and i know how crazy it must be making you that you ca n't be with her . victor : maggie 's the love of my life . and it 's the best news that her nightmare is over and she 'll be home soon . ciara : speaking of news , i actually have some news of my own . victor : what the hell is that ? ciara : ben and i are engaged . victor : and that 's the good news ? jake : i mean , i got a lifetime of my own memories . so how could i be stefan dimera , right ? i mean , but gabi , she claims that that freak rolf has implanted other people with fake memories , which is a little jaggy . ben : it 's also true . jake : so what , she could be right ? my memories could be fake ? ben : do you want her to be right ? jake : what if that drug actually could make me access my real memories ? you know , if it were true and all . ben : look , the thing is , whatever gabi 's claiming is in that syringe , we do n't know what the hell that drug is for real . that 's why i gave it to my therapist , told her to bring it to the hospital lab , have it analyzed . jake : any word back ? ben : no . i can check . do you want me to check ? jake : no , no , it 's all right . i mean , look , the whole thing is so off - the- charts weird . it 's probably not true . ben : well , just so you know , if i thought for a second that you were really stefan and i knew that drug was safe , i 'd tell you to take it . jake : but you do n't think i am , right ? ben : stefan was a good friend of mine , and i miss him . but what i honestly think is that gabi is so desperate to believe the impossible because she loved stefan so damn much . kayla : you tried to inject a mechanic with one of rolf 's potions ? gabi : yes . kayla : you really do belong behind bars . gabi : stop looking at me like that . i did n't actually do it . kayla : well , you are lucky that ben intervened . gabi : lucky ? oh , if it were n't for ben , i would have my husband back . he got all self - righteous and he wanted to have the serum analyzed when i already know what 's in it . kayla : you are a suspect in abigail 's drugging , and now you go and try to drug an innocent man . gabi : will you just focus here , okay ? the only illegal act that has been committed is that ben stole my serum , and the only chance that i have to be with the man that i love . brady : how you feeling ? you feeling better ? sarah : aspirin , caffeine , a good friend . yeah , i guess . brady : good , 'cause we 're gon na have to be on our `` a `` game if we 're gon na take on victor and xander , know what i mean ? sarah : understood . is there a plan ? brady : there is . and i 'm gon na put it in motion this morning . sarah : okay . what is it ? brady : well , our first order of business is to get you back on your feet . so i want you to order a big greasy breakfast . then i want you to maybe hit the gym and get that alcohol out of your pores , and then i 'll be back here and i 'll fill you in , all right ? sarah : mm - hmm . ca n't wait . hey , brady . thank you for taking care of me . brady : i 'm glad i was here for you . xander : brady , i was wonder -- sarah ? [ jazzy suspenseful music ] xander : what the hell ? brady : you should just leave . sarah : it 's okay , brady . i 'll handle xander . brady : are you sure ? sarah : yeah . thanks . i 'll be fine . i 'll see you later ? brady : you will . i got plans for you . xander : what is this ? what 's happening ? sarah : what does it look like ? ciara : i would really like your blessing , grandpa . victor : and i would love to give it to you . but i can't . you 're a smart , beautiful woman , and you deserve better than a necktie killer . or the washer on your finger . ciara : yeah , but grandpa , i love him . victor : it 'll pass . ciara : ben has saved my life more than once . and he saved my grandma julie 's life . he 's the best man that i know . grandpa , he is kind and he is honest , and he has worked so incredibly hard to put his past behind him , and every day that i wake up , he shows me what real love is . and if you could just see the man he is now , then you would understand that . victor : stubborn . like your father . ciara : yeah , and i know where my father gets it from . victor : you 're making a big mistake . ciara : even if i am , which i am not , but if i was , grandpa , it is my mistake to make . oh , and by the way , i quit . ben : thank you for your help . it 's fine . that was dr . evans ' service . she 's not reachable . jake : any word when she might be ? ben : no , man , i 'm sorry . i 'd swing my the hospital myself , but we promised mr . lamarca we 'd have this repair done before lunch . jake : i 'm the one who almost got jabbed with the thing , so maybe someone at the lab will talk to me . ben : i do n't see why not . jake : hold down the fort ? ben : i got you . jake : back in a bit . gabi : if you do n't give me that drug immediately , i 'm going to sue this hospital for making me believe that my husband was dead when he isn't . kayla : and what proof do you have ? you know this is ridiculous . gabi : well , it 's not gon na look ridiculous when everybody sees my husband is alive and well . so go ahead and waste the hospital 's financial resources battling a lawsuit that you 're gon na lose . go for it . kayla : you know what , you can just calm down , all right ? i 'll go check the lab . gabi : thank you . not . eli : exactly the woman we 're looking for . gabi : what ? what do you want ? eli : a statement regarding your assault on jake lambert . the syringe . gabi : i did not assault him . lani : that 's not what ben told chad . gabi : well , ben has a big mouth . lani : and he 's also a witness , so maybe this time you will end up in prison , exactly where you belong . chad : so i got a call this morning from a doctor in florida . his name is dr . marquart , and he 's an expert in psychopharmacology . marlena thinks that he can really help you . abigail : really ? that 's -- that 's great . when 's he gon na be here ? chad : not here . he 's not gon na be in the hospital here . abigail : what do you mean he 's not gon na be in the hospital ? you 're -- are you saying you 're thinking of committing me again ? it 's starting to happen every day . chad : well , no -- i would -- commit you ? no . i 've done that once . i will never do that again . i promised you that . that was the worst mistake of my life . but you are having these hallucinations , and we need to figure out why . we need to get rid of them . so i think it 's really exciting that this dr . marquart wants to help . abigail : so i 'd have to leave salem ? gabi : [ chuckles ] oh , wow , i get it . this is because you 're not over the fact that eli fell in love with me . lani : no , i 'm not over the fact that you threatened to blow up an innocent woman 's heart for revenge . gabi : sorry , you put a bullet in my husband . eli : about the assault -- gabi : okay , can you just stop talking about that ? because i 'm trying to help stefan remember who he is . lani : and you think that jake lambert is stefan , whose heart was removed from his body and put into julie 's ? gabi : you saw him . tell her , it 's stefan . lani : you know what , gabi , why do n't you just tell us everything down at the station ? gabi : i 'm not going anywhere with you . please . stefan . lani : wow . you do look like stefan . gabi : that 's because he is . stefan , this is the woman who shot you . jake : it 's jake . eli : mr. lambert , we 've been told that gabi assaulted you with a syringe . jake : oh , that 's actually why i 'm here . i 'd like to know more about the drug she tried to inject me with . gabi : then you believe me ? victor : you 're quitting titan ? i thought you liked your job . ciara : okay , let 's -- let 's rewind a bit , grandpa . shall we ? you mostly offered me the job to try to get me away from ben , and i only accepted because you promised me that you would back off and give me and ben peace . do you remember that ? victor : you drove a hard bargain . ciara : yeah , and you 've barely kept up your end of the deal . only reason why i stayed on these past couple of months is because , well , i was convinced that you and xander framed ben for murder , and i wanted to expose you . victor : we didn't . ciara : no , you didn't . i know that , but you also never gave ben a break . look , if you ca n't trust my choice in men , how can i expect you to trust my business decisions ? victor : we 're family . ciara : no , i know we 're family , but that 's not -- that 's not nearly enough of a recommendation . i mean , xander is family , and quite frankly , grandpa , the guy is kind of a tool . victor : he just saved maggie 's life . ciara : i know , and i 'm very , very grateful for that . but , i mean , you ca n't honestly tell me that you trust him completely to be ceo . victor : well , there 's nothing wrong with keeping tabs on what 's going on . and i like to know that someone that i trust implicitly is keeping an eye on him , making sure he stays on the rails . that 's why i need you . could be a raise in it . interested ? ciara : okay . i will consider changing my mind about working with xander if -- if you change your mind about ben . victor : you really love him ? ciara : i really do . victor : and he 's gon na buy you a proper ring ? ciara : yes , he is , grandpa . victor : all right . if you stay on at titan , i will do my best to accept weston . ciara : no , grandpa , i 'm gon na need more than you just doing your best . victor : fine . i will accept weston as the man you love . ciara : okay , but do you really mean that ? victor : of course i mean it . ciara : yeah ? victor : you happy ? ciara : yeah ! grandpa . xander : you slept with brady . sarah : hmm . i do n't wan na kiss and tell . xander : brady just got his daughter back . kristen 's in prison . he 's romping around with you . where is mickey anyway ? sarah : oh , i guess you have n't heard . rachel is gone . so is kristen . xander : wait , what are you talking about ? sarah : kristen knew that she would be prosecuted for stabbing victor if she ever stepped foot back in salem , so she took rachel and disappeared . xander : and brady just let her go ? sarah : he wanted her to have the opportunity to raise her child . the only child that she will ever have . it 's his gift to her . so he has lost his daughter and the woman that he has loved , so congratulations on the whole baby switch thing , 'cause you gutted us all . xander : sarah , i know how much you loved that little girl . sarah : because you let me believe that she was mine . you let me bond with her , and you knew the truth . xander : see , if i could just -- sarah : just shut up ! god ! i do n't wan na hear it , i do n't wan na hear any more excuses or explanations . you and victor destroyed everything that i thought i knew about my life . so when i ran into brady at the pub , he understood . he understood my pain because it is his pain too . and then one thing led to another , and you know . xander : i know how angry you are , i do , but -- and i know -- sarah : you know what -- xander : i know you do n't -- sarah : i have to take a shower . just be gone when i 'm out . chad : we are gon na leave salem . the kids and i , we 're going with you . abigail : yeah , but i -- i mean , i 'd have to stay at the clinic . chad : yeah , we 're gon na be -- we 're gon na be nearby . we 're gon na see you every day . abigail : no , i mean , what about dimera ? you just got back in charge . chad : being your husband is more important that anything else in the world to me . when i call him , i 'll just tell him that we 're set , okay ? i think it 's best . abigail : no , i do n't want to . i ca n't -- we ca n't do this to our kids . it 's not right . i do n't wan na uproot them . i don't . chad : honey , we did it when we went to paris . abigail : that 's different . thomas is older , and he 's building friendships now , real friendships , and he 's excited to go to summer camp . i mean , i do n't wan na do that to him or charlotte . i want them to have as normal a life as possible . chad : shh , hey . [ gentle music ] what do you say we leave them here with your parents ? and i 'll go with you . abigail : or i could -- i could go by myself . [ gentle music ] ciara : hey . ben : oh , oh - oh . hey you . ciara : hi . ben : what are you doing here ? ciara : um , where 's your boss ? ben : he 's at the hospital . ciara : is everything okay ? ben : no , yeah , he 's fine . he actually wanted to go check up on the status of that drug at the lab from when gabi tried to inject him . ciara : why ? ben : as crazy as this sounds , i think gabi 's starting to convince him that he actually might be stefan . gabi : i knew it . i knew you would see the truth . i knew you 'd want your old life back as much as i do . jake : ease up , turbo . i 'm only here because ben said the syringe was being analyzed . i 'm curious . gabi : okay , and you want your memory back , i know . we 're gon na make that happen as soon as kayla comes back with the drug , okay ? jake : my memory 's just fine . gabi : no , it isn't . it isn't . jake : is she always this , i do n't know , difficult ? eli : you have no idea . gabi : what is taking her so long ? eli : gabi , just slow down . all right , we 're in the middle of an investigation . that drug could be evidence . gabi : i did n't steal it . it belongs to me , okay ? and once i give stefan a dose , he 's gon na remember how crazy in love we were and the amazing life that we had . [ monitor beeping ] [ gentle music ] victor : i deserve it . everything you wan na say , every bit of your anger . brady : that 's not why i 'm here . victor : i do n't want your forgiveness . do n't expect it . not gon na ask for it . but i do hope that one day you can see it in your heart to let me make it up to you , especially now that you have your daughter back . brady : i do n't have rachel back . victor : i do n't understand . with kristen in jail . brady : she 's not in jail . kristen and my daughter are gone . and it is your fault . when it comes to beautiful hair , why are we always ... ben : i did n't think i was gon na see you until tonight . did you get everything checked off your wedding to - do list ? ciara : ah , no . i am just getting started , but i did check off something pretty major that i wanted to share with you . ben : you found a dress ? ciara : no . ben : flowers ? ciara : no , not even close , and this is way bigger than flowers , ben . ben : ah . ciara : i got my grandfather 's blessing . ben : victor 's blessing ? ciara : yeah . ben : how did you manage that ? ciara : i do n't know , ben . i guess your girl 's just got mad skills . ben : oh , god , you 're not kidding . victor : you just let that woman run off with your child ? brady : that woman -- that woman deserves to be with the daughter that she thought was dead because of you . that woman , if she comes back to salem she goes to prison because of you . i let kristen go be with her daughter and be the woman and the mother that she 's always wanted to be because it was the least i could do for the woman that i love , given the crap that you and xander put her through . victor : i admit we made mistakes . brady : mistakes ? victor : out of love . i do love you , brady . brady : you have a very funny way of showing that . victor : well , let me prove it to you . ask me anything . anything you want me to do , i 'll do it . anything . brady : fire xander . sarah : what the hell are you still doing here ? xander : you did this to hurt me , did n't you ? sleeping with brady . sarah : my god , do n't flatter yourself . you are out of my life . now get the hell out of this room . [ gentle music ] xander : while you were sleeping with my cousin to punish me , i saved your mother from committing suicide . lani : mr. lambert , are you interested in pressing charges ? gabi : would you just give it a rest , please ? i did not drug abigail and i did n't assault stefan . jake : name 's jake . gabi : come on . finally , okay , where is my drug ? kayla : i have the results of the analysis . i know what was in the syringe . gabi : of course you do . it 's a serum to help get stefan 's memory back . kayla : no , actually . it was the same compound used in the drugging of abigail . [ tense music ] chad : no , we 're a team . remember , we 're a team ? abigail : yes , i know . you 're right , we are a team , but you could be one part of the team that would stay here with our kids , and this part of the team would go and take care of herself so that i can make our family whole again . chad : i , uh -- i do n't know . abigail : thomas and charlotte need their dad . chad : and i need my wife . i promised you i was never gon na abandon you again . whatever we go through , we go through together .

kate : no . no , they have nothing , which means , once again , a member of the dimera family is gon na get off scot - free . sami : ej , i think the idea of building absolute trust between us is ... important . and since it was your idea , you should start . i really want you to tell me who you spoke to after rafe was attacked . ej : [ sighs ] samantha , i really do not want to get in another argument with you . sami : well , me neither . so just tell me the truth . ej : [ laughs ] jensen : nick , i asked you a question . i see . you 've been a bad boy . very busy . but do n't worry , it 's not gon na make any difference , because you 're not going anywhere , and neither is that little wifey of yours . tell me where she is ! nick : listen , this is between you and me . you leave her out of this . jensen : the guy i saw out there ... he must have had somebody with him . is that how she got untied ? nick : yeah . i told them to take off . jensen : that 's very heroic of you , nick . it does n't make any difference because she 's as big as a barn door . and she 's not going anywhere fast . and you , you 're not going anywhere . sonny : by `` now , `` you know , what does that mean ? like , right now ? gabi : my water just broke . sonny : well , what does that mean ? what does that mean ? gabi : it means that this baby 's getting born ... tonight . vargas : look , if i could help you , i would . but i just do n't know what i can do . hope : did jensen know anyone here in salem besides you and nick ? vargas : i do n't know . i do n't think so . hope : what reason would he have for beating up rafe hernandez ? vargas : i got no idea . hope : i have a cop lying in a hospital bed because of this y . and from what you say , he has a score to settle with nick . i need to find him . i need to find him and gabi . vargas : hey , look , i 've told you everything that i know . if i knew something else that would help , i 'd tell you . believe me . hope : this is all on me . this whole thing . sonny : all right , you know , in the movies when the water breaks , it does n't mean that the baby 's coming right away . gabi : yeah , sonny , but this is life , okay ? and i 've been having little mini- contractions all day . sonny : are you kidding me ? you have n't said a word ! gabi : well , i just thought it was my imagination , okay ? but it 's not . i 'm in labor , and there 's nothing i can do to stop it . sonny : okay , you know what ? we ca n't let this creep find us . i 'm gon na get you somewhere safe while we wait for the ferry , okay gabi : what about nick and will ? sonny : will said he 's untying nick right now . they 're right behind us , okay ? we have to go . we have keep moving , come on . come on . come on . jensen : that ought to hold . oh , do n't worry , nick . i 've got at least another couple hours until the next ferry comes ... which gives me plenty of time to take care of you and your little wifey . nick : she 's not a part of this . jensen : actually , anyone who has anything to do with you is a part of this . that cop hernandez , he 's in the hospital because i thought he was you . you 're just real bad luck for people , nick . nick : look . jensen , if you leave now , i promise you i wo n't say anything to anyone . jensen : oh , is that right ? i 'm sorry , i ca n't do that . after this , i have to go back to salem to make sure that that cop does n't come out of a coma . nick : why do you keep hurting people ? you 're out of prison , jensen . you can start a new life . jensen : that 's exactly what i intend on doing ... as soon as i finish getting rid of the trash from my old one . daniel : i 'm not trying to pry here , i just -- you know , i love your mom , and i really want to understand the situation . abigail : yeah . i hated boarding school , but jj loved it . so this is the first time that he 's actually been home since my dad -- daniel : right . yeah . abigail : yeah . i mean , he does n't talk about it that often , but -- daniel : well , he 's a teenage guy . [ chuckles ] abigail : my mom and i , um , we donated all my dad 's clothes together , and we put all my dad 's books in storage together . jj was n't around for any of that . so now that he 's home , i think that it 's shocking for him to see that my dad 's stuff is all gone and know that my dad 's never gon na walk through that door again . daniel : yeah , that 's a tough one . i 've been through that , but , you know , he 's very lucky to have a mother and a sister who are as sensitive as you and your mom . jennifer : uh , hey , when you returned the mp3 player to daniel , did you guys get a chance to talk at all ? jj : no . he was , like , pretty busy . jennifer : oh , yeah , i see . jj : and i do n't think he 's that happy with me anyway . jennifer : why ? jj : the player -- it stopped working while i was using it . jennifer : oh , gosh , what ? can i get it repaired ? [ cell phone rings ] jennifer : wait , hold on , i have to text my assistant . one second . jj : i 'll see you later , mom . jennifer : wait , you 're leaving ? jj : yeah . jennifer : w - without telling me exactly where you 're going ? i do n't think so . justin : you really think stefano did this ? kate : no . this time i think it 's ej . in fact , i 'm sure of it . justin : why ? kate : sami . of course . justin : but sami and ej are together now . they 're engaged . kate : that 's right , and rafe is the only obstacle to that bliss . justin : mm , that sounds like a pretty big leap . kate : really ? because ej has managed to , what , clean up his image ? justin : and because rafe is a former federal agent , and now he 's a cop who 's sent a lot of bad dudes to jail . they hate when that happens . kate : well , ej is the only criminal he 's never managed to put behind bars . so maybe ej 's just trying to ensure that it never happens . ej : i 'm sorry , i 'm really getting tired of having to defend myself . sami : you do n't have to defend yourself . i believe that you had nothing to do with what happened with rafe . ej : okay , then what is your problem ? sami : that you wo n't tell me who you were talking to on the phone . if you do n't tell me , if you do n't tell hope , you have to admit you 're gon na look guilty as hell . ej : i do n't care , okay ? i 'm not telling , and if you do n't like it , that 's tough . sami : tough ? ej : tough . sami : seriously ? that 's how things are ? really , ej ? then what does this even mean ? why am i even wearing this ? gabi : oh , my god , is this where i 'm gon na have my baby ? sonny : yes , it 's the only place i saw , gabi . gabi : [ groans ] i was already scared going to the hospital with the doctors and nurses and clean sheets ! sonny : all right , maybe it 's not gon na be that bad . maybe it wo n't be that bad . gabi : oh , yeah , not that bad ? you try it ! sonny : i 'm sorry , i 'm just trying to keep you calm . you have to calm down . you ca n't freak out on me . gabi : good luck with that . sonny : you know , i know this is the worst thing that could possibly happen right now , okay ? but you have to be quiet . that guy still might be looking for us , please . gabi : oh , my god . [ groans ] sonny : i 'm sorry , come here . let 's get you off your feet . gabi : oh , my god . sonny : can you sit down for me ? gabi : oh , i do n't know ! sonny : all right , shh , shh . easy , easy . put your back up against this . gabi : oh , okay . sonny : back up a little bit . there you go . gabi : do you know anything ? anything about -- sonny : about birthing babies ? um , yeah , i saw this video in health class once . but i closed my eyes . gabi : [ grunts ] sonny : no , no , i only closed my eyes during the gross parts . i watched everything else , okay ? gabi : [ cries ] sonny : is that another one ? okay , here , take my hand . you can squeeze it -- okay , aah ! all right , all right ! that must really hurt . okay . gabi : yes , of course it hurts , you moron ! this has to come out of this ! oh , my god ! sonny : i got it , i got it . just keep breathing . keep breathing . gabi : [ labored breathing ] sonny : that 's supposed to help the pain . it helped the lady in the video . gabi : oh , my god , yeah . well , that lady in the video was n't in a shed and with a guy that closed his eyes during the movie ! oh , god , where 's nick ? where 's nick ? [ cries ] nick : jensen , you 've got me . i 'm the one you hate . jensen : come on , nick . you do n't want your wife out there all alone , do you ? out in the cold ? in the dark ? she 's probably scared to death right now . my guess is she 'll be glad to see me . nick : i doubt that . jensen : you know , it 's kind of sad , but from what i can tell , you did n't tell her anything about us ... how i took care of you . i took care of you when you got to statesville . nick : stop it . jensen : do i have to remind you how close we were ? nick : shut up ! just shut the hell up ! ok so i 've been having an affair of sorts jj : i just want to take a walk , see what salem looks like now . jennifer : you just went running . jj : but i get sick of being in the house , okay ? jennifer : you just got here . jj : yeah , and it 's been such a blast . jennifer : listen , honey , i know that you are really worried about what everyone is thinking of you in town , okay ? but the best way to help that to help that to die down is to really stay out of trouble , all right ? jj : what ? you think i was gon na go smoke some weed ? jennifer : i did n't say that . jj : i told you . mom , i did n't drink , and i did n't smoke pot . i did n't do any of that at school . i swear it was my roommate . jennifer : okay , well , you were the one who got expelled , and i know that 's hard for you to understand , but i 'm not really sure what you want me -- jj : i signed up for summer school , mom . i did what you wanted . [ cell phone ringing ] jennifer : listen to me . i really need to answer this , okay ? but you are not going anywhere . we have n't even had a chance to talk about what you are feeling , and we are going to do that tonight , okay ? ej : samantha , i gave you this ring because i love you . i want to marry you . i want to spend the rest of my life with you and the children . you know there is nothing that i would not do for you . sami : except be honest with me . ej : but i 'm not being dishonest with you . sami : wha -- what is that if it 's not dishonest ? ej : i 'm just choosing not to tell you something that you do n't need to know . sami : if it does n't have anything to do with rafe , then why ca n't you tell me ? is it something illegal ? ej : maybe . sami : [ giggles ] ej : no . not necessarily . sami : [ british accent ] do you know , ej , you drive me absolutely mental ? ej : really ? mm , because you 've never told any lies yourself , have you ? no . sami : [ normal voice ] exactly . i learn from my mistakes . see how those turned out ? ej : uh - huh . if i tell you , you 're not going to be satisfied . you 're just going to keep wanting to know more and more and more . sami : you know i 'm going to be your wife , right ? not your accountant or your lawyer . you 're supposed to want to tell me these things . ej : i know , but i ca n't . i 'm sorry . i will . samantha ... i would never do anything to hurt you or to disappoint you . you know that , do n't you ? sami : when you put it that way ... vargas : hey , you ca n't start blaming yourself for this . hope : no , actually , i can . jensen was free for several days before i knew about this . vargas : okay , so someone from the prison should have notified you that he was getting out . hope : [ sighs ] you do n't understand . perhaps if i had been a better mother -- vargas : sorry , but i do n't know what this is about -- hope : i should have known this bastard was back on the street before he had the opportunity to hurt anyone . there are several lives at risk now unless you find a way to help me . gabi : [ labored breathing ] okay , okay . sonny : they 're getting closer together there , about two or three minutes apart right now . gabi : yeah , well , the book that i read said that first labors usually take longer . sonny : all right , well , i guess the book did n't know everything , okay ? gabi : oh , my god , where 's nick and will ? what if they did n't get out in time ? sonny : no , no , no , come on . they 're smarter than he is . they 're smarter than he is . gabi : yes , but he 's crazy ! sonny : hey , look at me . they will find us . they will find us . gabi : [ groaning ] sonny : you know , if someone would have told me six months ago that i 'd be in a place like this with you delivering will 's baby into this world -- gabi : yeah , tell me about it . sonny : and i know that we 've had our problems -- gabi : okay , look , you do n't have to act like you 're -- that you do n't hate me , okay ? because i would hate me too , all right ? [ groaning ] nick : shut up . shut up . just kill me if you want to , but just -- will you just shut up ? jensen : you know , nick ... you 're the reason that i did three months in solitary . and while i was there , i had a lot of time to think . the one thing that i could n't wrap my head around was why you turned on me . nick : i did n't understand the way things worked . jensen : that 's not true , nick . i told you how things worked the very first day that i saw you . i told you what i could do for you . and in return , exactly what you had to do for me . and you did it . you did , you put up a good fight . but after i beat you a few times , you fell right into line , just like you were supposed to . i thought you got the message ... which is why i could n't believe it when you turned me in -- nick : i should have beat your brains in when i had the chance . i wanted to every time you came near me . jensen : but you did n't , did you ? in fact , you fell into line each and every time , just like you were supposed to . you were my bitch ! right ? nick : no . [ panting ] jennifer : you are my son , and i love you . and i feel like since you 've been away at boarding school that you do n't even remember how to talk to me anymore . jj : i remember . jennifer : okay , then just talk to me , please . [ footsteps approaching ] jennifer : just tell me -- abigail : look who i found at aunt maggie 's . daniel : hello , hey . jennifer : oh , hey , hi . daniel : hey , jj . jennifer : how are you ? daniel : good , how are you ? jj : hey . jennifer : good . um , i 'm glad you 're here because there 's something that i wanted to tell you . daniel : you know , i do n't have a lot of time . i 'm on duty soon , so -- jennifer : no , it 's all right . i just -- i heard about the mp3 player , and , um , we 're gon na get it fixed . jj : mom . jennifer : what ? jj : it 's , like , ruined . jennifer : you said it stopped working . jj : it did . but ... after it got smashed . jennifer : jj . jj : it was an accident . jennifer : okay , well , we 're gon na be buying you a new mp3 player , and you are gon na figure out a way to earn money to do that . daniel : you know what ? do n't worry about it . jj : thanks , man . that 's really nice of you . but -- jennifer : but what ? jj : well , i 'm not sure what you 're going to think when i tell you . jennifer : jj , will you just finish your sentence ? tell me . what ? jj : there 's something else . jennifer : something else , what ? tell me . jj : the train set -- the one parker was playing with in my room ? well , it 's just of , um , toast . sami : [ sighs ] oh . kate : what are you doing ? sami : i 'm looking for will . not that it 's any of your business . kate : oh , well , he 's meeting me here . sami : really ? why ? kate : because we love each other . face it , sami . sami : okay , fine . do you know where he is now ? kate : no , i do n't . i called him , but i got his voice mail . sami : i have n't had a chance to talk to him since what happened with rafe . kate : oh , you mean since your fiancé hired someone to try to kill him ? yes , i know . ej : justin , thank you for meeting me . justin : sure . ej : so we have a little bit of a , um , situation . justin : what kind ? ej : hope and samantha know that i received your telephone call at the brady pub last night . and that was shortly after rafe was attacked . justin : did you tell them it was me ? ej : and let them know that we 're working together ? i can hardly do that , now can i ? justin : [ sighs ] well , how do they know about the call ? ej : rafe 's sister gabi overheard . justin : oh , beautiful . ej : yeah , well , hope has this rather interesting theory that the telephone call was in fact confirmation that rafe had been attacked because i ordered this attack . justin : did you ? hope : tell me everything . everything you remember about jensen . why kind of car does he like ? anything . vargas : he kept to himself . he was n't much of a talker . hope : think . vargas : okay , i do remember him saying something about how he 'd like to pick up work on the docks . hope : where ? vargas : there was an island that he camped out somewhere around salem , where -- oh , there was a warehouse there where cargo ships used to unload . hope : smith island has a warehouse . vargas : and you used to have to catch a ferry to get out there . hope : that 's it . thank you . vargas : yeah -- hope : thank you , thank you , thank you . vargas : you 're welcome . sonny : here you go . here 's some clean drop clothes . we can use this to keep you warm , and we can also wrap the baby . gabi : okay , look , i hate to tell you this , but you 're gon na need some scissors or something to cut the cord with . sonny : the cord ? gabi : yeah . sonny : uh , okay . okay . gabi : [ deep breathing ] sonny : uh , all right . gabi : you know , i do n't know if it 's gon na make you feel better , but i really hate myself for my part in what happened to melanie . sonny : i know , you already said that , gabi . gabi : i do n't even know why i did it . i do n't even know -- sonny : here we go . i found some scissors . gabi : [ groans ] sonny : look , hey -- gabi : yeah , that 's gon na do . sonny : these gon na work ? gabi : yeah , yeah . sonny : okay , people -- even nice people , you know , can be a little crazy sometimes . it 's okay . gabi : i just -- i lost my sister , i lost will , and i thought that chad was the answer . sonny : i know , i know . i understand . i completely understand . gabi : no , no , i 've been nothing but a bitch to you . i even lied to you about who the baby 's father was . sonny : those lies were not your idea . gabi : do n't blame nick ! sonny : he 's no saint , gabi . i should know better than anybody . gabi : oh , my god . sonny : what happened ? what 's happening , what , what ? gabi : oh , my god , i think it 's time to push . sonny : push what ? gabi : push the baby ! okay ? oh , my god , where 's nick and will ? where are they ? oh , my god ! jensen : cry all you want , nick . it 's not gon na make any difference . you know what ? i think it 's time . it 's time to put you out of your misery . nick : no , no . jensen : i can take care of the missus on my way back to the ferry . nick : please just stay away from her . jensen : oh , i like it when you say please , nick . i 'm gon na tell her you said that . nick : no , no . jensen : yeah , i 'm gon na tell her right before i shoot her and your baby . [ grunts ] jennifer : what exactly happened to parker 's train set ? jj : i turned them on to see how they worked , and i forgot about it , and they just -- they shut down . jennifer : they just shut down ? jj : yeah , yeah , when i came back , they were n't running . it smelled hot . i guess the motor 's burned out or something . jennifer : okay , well , how long do you think they were running ? jj : i do n't know . couple of hours . jennifer : a couple of hours ? jj : i - i got a text , so i guess i was distracted or something . jennifer : you were that distracted that you could n't just flip a little switch , jj ? that is such a pathetic excuse . so now you know what , you really do need to go get a job , 'cause you have to buy a brand - new train set now and a brand - new mp3 player . jj : i 'm really sorry , man . i got a lot on my mind these days , and i just forget stuff . daniel : no , you know , do n't worry about it , do n't worry . i 'll buy parker a new train set . it 's not the end of the world . yeah , it 's fine . abigail : jj , why do n't you and i go take a walk ? jj : sure , why not ? i really am sorry . jennifer : [ sighs ] ej : you 're not seriously asking me if i had anything to do with this attack on rafe ? justin : you 're indignant ? with your track record ? ej : i had nothing to do with what happened to rafael . interestingly , i do n't think my father did either . justin : then who was it ? ej : oh , i do n't know . some ex - con looking for payback . justin : yeah , maybe . look , about that phone call ... if you need to tell hope that it was me -- ej : justin , no . nobody needs to know anything about this association . justin : but if it could clear you -- ej : but i did nothing wrong . nothing , okay ? and nothing is going to stop me from taking stefano down . hope : okay , so you guys know who we 're looking for . if jensen 's on the island , i hope he did n't hear our boat arrive . he 'll know it 's not time for the ferry . so we 're gon na have to cover ground quickly . you take the south side of the island , you take the north end , and i 'll cover this area , okay ? and do n't forget , he used to camp here waiting to pick up freelance work at the dock . so he knows the island really well . and do n't just check the woods . check any place he can seek shelter , okay ? got it . okay . hope : and keep checking in with me . gabi : [ labored breathing ] sonny : why are you breathing like that ? gabi : to keep from pushing . sonny : is there any way that you can make it to the dock ? maybe someone 's there that could help us . gabi : no , no , no , no , no . walking is just gon na make it worse . contractions worse , okay ? the contractions are worse . this is gon na happen here , sonny . sonny : it looks like it . okay , okay , okay . gabi : [ groaning ] sonny : okay , just keep breathing . keep breathing . i know you 're scared , but i 'm here for you . gabi : i 'm scared . i 'm really scared . sonny : i know , but i 'm here for you , okay ? and one day you and will are gon na be able to tell arianna about the -- gabi : arianna ! arianna ! sonny : arianna ! about the night that she was born , okay ? gabi : well , you 're gon na be part of that story too , okay ? you 're part of that story , okay ? ooh , she 's coming ! sonny : all right , let 's do this , come on ! come on , gabi ! gabi : [ cries ] sonny : push ! push !

[ phone ringing ] chad : i got ta -- i got ta deal with this . sonny : is everything okay ? chad : i hope so . marlena : you ca n't excuse kristen 's behavior because of things that happened years ago . stefano : my daughter was a beautiful , happy woman , who made one mistake . she loved john black . marlena : yes . deeply . but things did not work out the way she wanted . he could not love her the way she needed . stefano : because she was n't you . marlena : you know , look , this was so many years ago . stefano : then she lost john 's baby . that is the day that she died . marlena : what are you saying ? that after that , her life was meaningless ? you know that 's not true . stefano : what i am saying is you and john destroyed her life long before you pushed her out that window . marlena : that was an accident . she was trying to kill me and threatening to kill everybody else . she was having a psychotic break . stefano : and you are responsible . so stop trying to deny it . marlena : look , i 'm sorry that you 're suffering . i 'm sorry that you lost your daughter . stefano , you still have your son , chad . enjoy him . make your life about him . stefano : meaning let you go , huh ? keep my promise ? marlena : no . no . stefano : take her . marlena : no . stefano : take her . finish it . marlena : do n't do this . do n't do this ! eve : here 's what happened , cole . jj found out what you did , you stupid idiot . cole : oh . like the drug thing ? yeah , well ... not my fault . paige told him , not me . but , hey , relax , okay ? you got nothing to worry about . i covered for you . i 'm serious . you 're good . i 'm not worried either 'cause they got no proof . eve : actually , cole , jj has enough proof to send you away for a very , very long time . good - bye . cole : wha -- hey , you ca n't just dump something like that on me and then walk away . if i 'm in trouble , so are you . remember what i said . i go down , you go down . eve : you ca n't drag me down any lower than i already am , all right ? jj : paige , wh -- why did you do that ? paige : [ grunts ] jennifer : oh ! paige : liar ! you stand there telling everybody how much you love me ? empty words oozing out of your filthy mouth ! you do n't mean a damn thing ! jj : i do love you . paige : in front of your family , my friends , people who 've done everything they could to -- to help me ! and to be kind . liar ! jj : paige , come on . you know i love -- paige : no , do n't you -- do n't touch me , do n't come near me , do n't you touch me ever again . i do n't want to hear any more of your lies . jj : paige , i 'm not lying . paige : no , i mean it ! shut up ! can you shut your mouth ? i do n't even want to hear your voice . it makes me sick . jj : paige , i -- okay , look . i know that you 're upset , okay ? i - i get that you 're upset . but can we just go outside ? paige : i 'm not going anywhere with you . jj : okay , paige , tell me why you 're upset . paige : i know what you did . abigail : i do n't -- paige , what are you saying ? paige : i know , jj . i know all of it . you slept with my mother . maggie : oh , my . paul : you and dr. evans tried and tried to fight how you felt . but you still wound up hurting dr. evans ' husband , will 's grandfather . john : yeah . paul : who else ? john : look , paul , i 'm not gon na sit here and deny other people suffered . it 's -- paul : do n't you think that it would have been best if you just admitted that you and dr. evans were in love ? everything out in the open . john : i 'm not sure . paul : well , i 'm not sure that it 's not the best thing for sonny and me . i love him . still . no question . so why not just put it out there ? john : it 's not the same . sonny has made it clear what he wants . and , paul , you ca n't force him to feel differently . paul : tell me something . all those years ago , when you looked into dr. evans ' eyes , and she said , `` oh , no , no , no . the right thing for me to do is to stay with my husband , `` did you even once think that she did n't really love you ? that 's what i thought . it was nice talking to you . carson : the battery 's dead , so forget about it . i do n't exist . and , oh , yeah ... this never happened . have a nice day . stefano : ah . are you certain that you were not followed , hmm ? chad : just by your guy . i did n't even know this airfield existed . stefano : it did n't . not until recently . chad : so , marlena ? stefano : safe . i do n't know , back in salem , i guess . chad : thank you . stefano : you are not welcome , chad . i thought you knew by now that i am not a man who likes to be threatened . jj : paige , come on . okay , what did eve tell you ? 'cause you ca n't believe her . you know how she is . paige : she did n't tell me anything . jj : well , then -- paige : until i forced her to . my mother has been lying to me for months and months and months just like you . just like you . my god . every time i saw you , every time i kissed you , every time you told me that you loved me ... jj : no . paige : every time that we were together , lies , all lies ! and my god , it 's like i do n't even know you . it 's like you 're some kind of , i do n't know , monster ! it 's like you 're some kind of nightmare ! daniel : okay , okay , okay . paige , paige , paige , hey . let 's just -- i think the best thing to do right now is just calm down . jj : okay , you know what , paige ? you know how she is . she will say anything to break us up , to hurt us . paige : her lies did n't hurt us , jj , your lies did n't either . what hurt us was the truth ! jj : well , that is what i am trying to tell you if you would just listen -- paige : oh , my god ! you do n't get it , do you ? you do n't get it ! i did listen . i heard you and my mom an hour ago . i was in the other room , okay ? listening to the both of you admitting to everything you did . so , yeah , i know . all of it . chad : father , you are a man who values family above all else . the only way i could convince you to let marlena go was to threaten to walk , was to take away part of your family . i had no choice . stefano : of course you did . you could have stayed out of my business . chad : no , roman and abe both felt that you had marlena and that you were gon na kill her , and they were right . stefano : oh , so you let them see a son turn against his own father ? chad : no , no , they saw nothing . okay , i simply told them that you and i had spoken , and that everything was gon na be all right . if anything , they saw it as stefano dimera showing compassion . stefano : yeah ? and what about those two idiots who saw what was a sign of dimera weakness ? john : hey , doc . marlena : oh ! oh , john . john : [ laughs ] paul : hey , i was actually looking for you . you got a minute ? sonny : no , i do n't . paul : well , we can at least talk , ca n't we ? sonny : no , not unless you -- paul i ca n't believe you hit will . seriously ? with our daughter in the next room ? paul : can we just not go there ? how about if we just move on ? sonny : there 's nothing to move on to . i 've made that clear . i know you do n't want to hear it . it 's obviously why you hit will , but it 's true . paul : sonny , i punched will because he called my mother a whore . eve : i 'm gon na take pity on you , mm - hmm . i 'm gon na do you a favor . i 'm gon na help you get out of salem for good . cole : oh , how ? i do n't know -- eve : there are two reasons you need to pay very close attention to what i 'm saying to you right now , cole . number one is i never want to see your lying face again because i do n't want to be reminded of how deluded i was to think that you could actually help me . how stupid ... could you be ? cole : come on . eve : and number two ... if you do n't leave town and never look back , i 'll make sure that you go to prison . cole : well ... and so will you . eve : well , here 's the kicker . i do n't care . without paige , my life 's not worth living . granted you do n't have a life worth living either , but you know you 'll do a hell of a lot better if you live it someplace else , so why do n't you get out of here ? now ! cole : i just tried to do what you wanted me to do . you wanted your daughter away from jj . eve : yeah . and i got my wish . abigail : wait , there 's -- there 's got ta be a mistake here . paige , this has to be a misunderstanding . i mean , my brother and your mom , they hardly ever even talk to each other . paige : what are you waiting for , jj ? huh ? your sister ca n't fix this , okay ? you have to . so tell them . go ahead , tell them what i said is n't true . rory : oh , dude ! paige : come on . come on , tell them ! or at least tell me ! come on , do n't i deserve the truth at least this one time ? jj : paige ... i love you . paige : you love me ? wow . you know , it just hit me . you do n't actually know what that word means . jennifer : honey , paige , listen to me , sorry . you 've got ta stop . okay , just stop ... paige : what ? jennifer : torturing yourself right now , please . paige : have n't you been listening ? jennifer : yes , i have . paige : do n't you understand what kind of person your son really is ? what he 's done ? how many times he 's lied to -- to me and to you ? oh , my god . did you -- oh , my god . you did . you knew . you knew jj slept with my mother . chad : explain something to me , father . how would killing marlena have shown strength ? stefano : it would have shown the world anyone who hurts a dimera pays the price . chad : but from what i heard , kristen was out of her mind and ready to kill a bunch of people . stefano : so ? does that mean she deserved to die ? chad : absolutely not . i wish that she had gotten the help that she needed , but she did n't . and she tried to kill marlena . marlena had no choice . stefano : so she said . chad : no , kristen fell . and marlena felt terribly sorry for our loss . stefano : look , there is no point rehashing all of this . chad : right . it 's over . and now our family is just down to you and me . stefano : chad , i will do everything i can to help you . i will support you in every way . chad : thank you . stefano : can you say the same thing for me ? john : you okay ? marlena : i will be . john : did something happen ? marlena : stefano happened . john : what did the son of a bitch do now ? marlena : you know what ? ultimately nothing . he was determined that somebody had to pay for what happened to kristen , and ... you know what ? this does n't matter . i do n't want to talk about it . john : no , no , no , no , no . if i had known , doc , you know i would have be -- marlena : i know . if you had known , but , you know , you were busy with other things . i understand that . um , so help distract me . oh , how was it with paul , and brady , and the baby ? john : well , uh , the ba -- the baby 's name is tate now , and he 's doing really well . marlena : tate ? oh . that 's great . and how did it go with paul ? john : that 's not so good . sonny : he called your mo -- no way . why would he say something like that ? paul : maybe you should ask him . sonny : i will . paul : and let 's hope that he tells you the truth . 'cause that 's what you deserve . and that 's what i 've always given to you . look , i 'm not trying to justify losing it , decking will . but you know that i would not react that way unless a person had it coming to them . look at me , sonny . i 'm not lying . i do n't do that . sonny : no , you do n't . paul : can you say the same thing about will ? paige : of course . it explains ... oh , my god , so many things . you knew . you were like the mother that i wished i had . who was always there . who always told me the truth and taught me how to trust . you lied ... just like my mom . you 're just like her . jj : no , no , paige . paige : no , no , no , get away from me , okay ? i do n't want to hear any more lies from anyone in this lying family . jj : okay , you know what , paige ? it 's nobody else 's fault but mine . okay ? blame me . me . yeah . you 're right . your mom -- eve and i ... we just did it . paige : [ sobbing ] jj : it 's no one else 's fault . paige : you `` did it . `` telling me that 's probably the only honest thing you 've ever said to me . jj : paige , i love you . give me a chance -- [ door slams ] [ door slams ] cole : man , i never could figure you . one day you 're all desperate , the next you 're thinking of these plans and -- eve : go ! damn it ! just go someplace where somebody does n't know what a failure you are as a human being ! cole : but do n't forget this was all your idea . so if you rat me out , i 'll turn on you in a heartbeat . you 'll be sorry . eve : i 'm already ... so very sorry . so very sorry . oh .

mimi : oh , you got it . thanks , philip . philip : good night , meems . mimi : good night . rex : damn it ! the proof is conclusive . belle black is not my sister . what the hell does this mean ? brady : see , chloe , the whole point of inviting cecilia marin out here and setting up that little showcase at the blue note was to get you into juilliard . chloe : i know , and i do n't mean to sound ungrateful . brady : and if you get into juilliard , which you will , you are going . chloe : i would be horribly homesick and miserable without you . brady : all right , now , listen to me . part of my job at titan is to set up a music division , which is going to mean lots of business trips to new york . chloe : oh , my god . brady : and the company could possibly rent me an apartment in manhattan . chloe : one bedroom or two ?

kate : would you just drop the act ? my gun is missing . you 're the only one who could 've taken it , and there 's only one reason you would 've done that . lucas , you just need to come clean . lucas : fine . all right . i did take your gun . kate : [ sighs ] god . [ cell phone rings ] ej : [ sighs ] [ ringing continues ] ej : yes ? abigail : i ca n't do this anymore , ej . ej : ca n't do what exactly ? abigail : i 've made up my mind . i 'm not going to continue this lie . ej : okay , look . i really do n't think we should be having this conversation over the telephone . abigail : why does it matter ? the point is , i 'm going to tell the truth . i have to . ej : abigail , we both have a tremendous amount at stake here . you understand that ? abigail : you think i do n't know that ? ej : look , i tell you what . just why do n't we meet before you go and talk to anybody , okay ? just let me text you later on . i 'll let you know when i 'm free . abigail ? abigail , are you there ? abigail : okay . fine . i 'll wait for your text . ej : rafe . rafe : you want to tell me what 's going on ? jordan : abigail , hey . hey , are you okay ? abigail : yeah , i am . i 'm -- i 'm fine . i just -- i think i may have gotten a friend in trouble , and i 'm just feeling a little freaked out about it . actually , it 's someone you know . jordan : who ? abigail : ben rogers . hope : i need a verbal response , ben . ben : i understand . hope : is it true that you and nick fallon argued on the day he was murdered ? ben : you cut right to the chase , do n't you ? hope : just answer the question . did you fight with nick fallon on the day he was shot and killed ? jennifer : saw nicole speeding away about a minute ago , and you 're upset again . whatever is going on between the two of you , it has you completely on edge , so please , tell me what it is . daniel : jennifer , this thing with nicole is ... it 's just complicated . it 's a long story . jennifer : great . i have time . let 's hear it . nicole : i 've been giving something a lot of thought . and there 's no other way to do it except say it out loud . eric : say what ? nicole : we need to elope . eric : elope ? nicole : and we need to do it today . kate : god , i was so hoping it was n't really true , although i -- lucas : although what ? in your heart , you knew that i was the only total screw- up who could take your gun and kill nick fallon ? kate : [ exhales ] look , you just told me that you took my gun . you stole my gun . what am i supposed to think ? lucas : i do n't know , mom . i do n't know . why do n't you try giving me the benefit of the doubt for a change , huh ? what about that ? maybe you should be trying to figure out why i would do something like that . kate : [ scoffs ] ej : what is going on with what exactly ? rafe : you asked me to meet you here . rafe : oh , yes , i did . of course . i 'm sorry . here we go . rafe : to confess to nick 's murder ? ej : ha ! yes , indeed . you are very funny , detective . no , i 'm afraid you and the salem police department have your work cut out for you on that one . i wanted you to look over this . rafe : these about nick ? ej : no . rafe : oh . ej : it 's about gabi . jennifer : i 'm waiting . daniel : [ sighs ] okay . okay , jennifer , i promised nicole i would n't discuss this with anyone -- this issue that she 's confided in me about -- till she could figure out a way to deal with it . jennifer : sounds serious . daniel : [ sighs ] it is . very . [ sighs ] my promise may be moot by now because i expect she has in fact already dealt with this issue , so ... the ordeal is probably over . at least i hope so . eric : you want to get married today ? nicole : yes . please ? i mean , why wait ? we both want it so much , and i do n't really want a big wedding . and i hope you do n't want that either . eric : no , i do n't , but we 're not in a rush . nicole : yes , we are . eric : we are ? why ? nicole : because someone wants to keep us apart . rafe : you drew these up ? ej : at your sister 's insistence . as you can see , the addendum to the custody agreement ... there says that if anything were to happen to gabriella , then you get to remain a part of arianna 's life . rafe : yeah , yeah . i see that . appreciate it . ej : well , i think , you know , you 're more than just a big brother to her . you 're also sort of a ... a mentor , a father figure , so that 's why i thought it was important that you get to review the language and the document . rafe : right . well , sure seems fair to me . do you mind if i had someone else look at these ? ej : be my guest . [ sighs ] what 's wrong ? you seem a little disconcerted . rafe : well , not to be cynical , ej , but i just have a hard time believing you did this out of the goodness of your heart . ej : i 've already explained to you , i did this because your sister asked me to do it . rafe : yeah , well , there 's got ta be more to it than that . hey , i got an idea . how about we try out honesty for a change , hmm ? what 's in it for you ? jordan : ben rogers ? abigail : yeah , yeah , ben rogers . i know that you guys know each other . jordan : oh , right . yeah , he works at tbd . he was with you the night that -- abigail : the night that my cousin was murdered . yeah . jordan : well , is that what you 're worried about , that you got him in some kind of trouble with something that happened about nick fallon ? abigail : the police are questioning him right now . jordan : why ? abigail : because i told them that ben and nick had a fight . ben : i did fight with nick fallon . hope : on the day he was murdered ? ben : no , it was before that . i guess , from your perspective , when i fought with him really does n't matter . hope : why would you say that ? ben : you think if i fought with him , no matter when it was , i had a motive to want him dead . hope : i see . so now you 're the lead detective on this case . is that it ? ben : i watch a lot of law & order when i ca n't sleep . hope : so what 's my next question ? ben : did you kill nick fallon ? hope : wrong . my next question is , what did you and nick fight about ? kate : okay . what possible reason could you have for stealing my gun ? lucas : well , there 's always allie . kate : allie ? lucas : yes , allie . my daughter spends a lot of time with you , and i do n't want her around guns . kate : oh , come on . you know i take good care of that gun . i have it in a safe place in a locked box . i would never , ever -- lucas : you do n't take care of that gun . i mean , i found that gun in two seconds . the lock popped right off , mom . kate : really ? so you 're gon na sit there and tell me that it 's just a total coincidence that suddenly you were so concerned about allie being around my gun that you have to take the damn thing from your mother at the very same time that nick turns up shot to death ? lucas : yeah , yes . that 's exactly what i 'm telling you . kate : lucas , i raised you to be a better liar than that . eric : i do n't understand . who wants to keep us apart ? nicole : let me qualify that statement . okay , it 's not just one person . it 's people . it 's plural . they just want to watch us implode , and i do n't want to wait around and give 'em a chance to make it happen . eric : it ca n't happen if we do n't let it happen . i do n't intend to let anyone -- nicole : okay , so how did it go when you told sami about us ? eric : not well , but -- nicole : and your mother ? eric : you and i discussed this earlier . we did n't expect her to be thrilled about it , obviously , but ... [ chuckles ] who cares ? nicole : no , we did n't expect her . but i know you . you think you can change her mind and sami 's . there 's no way . somehow , someway , you think you can just tell them over and over and over again that you 're so happy with me . blah , blah , blah . you need to realize something . your mother is never , ever going to accept me . and sami is gon na do everything she can to wear you down and make you change your mind . she will use every dirty trick in the book , and i will not let that happen . i will not let anyone keep us apart . [ knock on door ] daniel : [ mutters ] abe : [ laughs ] hey . i hope we 're not too early . daniel : hey . abe : i had to pick up an apple pie 'cause you do n't want me baking , and maxine made her world - famous potato salad . daniel : yeah , that was supposed to be for the cold salmon . come on , come on in . yeah . maxine : `` supposed to be `` ? jennifer : oh , yeah . this is so embarrassing . and there 's really no excuse . we got so preoccupied with something going on here , we completely forgot that we had a plan with you . i 'm sorry . abe : oh , uh ... maxine : well , do n't worry about it . it 's okay . abe : yeah , yeah . do n't , do n't . i mean , it 's -- it 's all right . we 'll do this another time . jennifer : no ! no , no , no . we 're gon na do this right now because what daniel and i were talking about , it can wait . come on , in the kitchen . maxine : are you sure ? jennifer : yes , it 's so fine . here , let me take that from you . maxine : okay . jennifer : thank you for bringing that . we 're gon na pull this together . nicole : you are the love of my life . you always were , and you always will be . and i just do n't want to lose you again . eric : you know i feel the same way about you . nicole : but you were wavering about marrying me today . eric : but it 's not about that . nicole : i love you . and if you want to marry me as much as i want to marry you , then , we 'll ... we 'll elope . because deep in my heart , i just have this feeling that it 's now or never . so what do you say ? ej : look , i mean , i suppose i ca n't really blame you for being wary , but despite our differences when it comes to children and the rights of the people who love those children , i thought that was one of those things where you and i actually agreed . rafe : yeah , yeah . the only thing . jordan : ben fought with nick ? abigail : he was trying to protect me . nick and i were having an argument , and ben stepped in . and that really pissed nick off . so then the two of them kind of went at it . and because i had to tell the police the truth about that and also because ben was here the night that nick was murdered , they brought ben in for questioning . and , you know , i just -- i feel so terrible . i mean -- jordan : well , it 's not your fault . abigail : well , thank you for saying that , but i still -- i feel like i 'm -- jordan : abigail , i 'm sorry , but i got ta go , okay ? take care . hope : what happened between you and nick ? ben : here 's the thing . i did n't know the guy . but i saw him treating abigail deveraux badly , and i did n't like it . hope : so abigail deveraux is a friend of yours . ben : she was n't a friend . i did n't know her very well at all . but i 'm not gon na stand by and watch any man treat a woman like that . hope : was nick threatening her ? ben : to me it looked that way . [ buzzer ] hope : excuse me . brady . and you can confirm this ? okay , get it to me right away . we 're done for now . i assume you have no plans on leaving salem ? ben : no . i like it here . hope : good . oh , damn it . lucas : i am not lying . and you know what ? i do n't care whether you believe me or not . kate : lucas ! lu -- lucas ! shh . [ whispers ] i 'm sorry , okay ? i b -- i can accept that . i believe you . i really do . i believe you , and i 'm sorry if i hurt your feelings . i am . come on . come sit down . come sit down . we need to get back to work . we need to talk about work . i 'm gon na need you to take some meetings in zadar . our office in zadar -- whoa , whoa , wait , wait , wait a minute . now ? kate : yeah , now . lucas : you want me to go to croatia ? kate : honey , that is a beautiful country . that coastline , oh , my god . lucas : yes , it 's beautiful . it 's gorgeous , and they also have a no extradition treaty with the u.s . so i could n't go if i wanted to . i do n't have a passport . kate : what ? why not ? lucas : because i had to surrender it . i had to surrender it to hope . i had no choice . kate : [ gasps ] oh , my god . oh , my god . you 're a suspect . lucas : oh , wait a minute . wait a minute . i did not kill nick fallon . i did not . kate : no . no , but you wanted to , did n't you ? that 's the real reason you took my gun . lucas : yes . kate : oh , god , god . [ sighs ] jennifer : not like us -- we just got so preoccupied with something that we were talking about . but since i am the one who forgot to pick up the salmon at the market , i 'm gon na go do that , and then maybe you can set the table . abe : hey , hey , jenn , look . why do n't i go with you , and maxine can stay and help daniel ? jennifer : oh , that would be great . okay , we 'll be back . we 'll be quick . daniel : thank you . maxine : all right , see you guys . abe : yeah . maxine : i feel so guilty . daniel : for what ? jenn and i are the ones who forgot about this lunch . why would you feel guilty ? maxine : 'cause i was using you two as a crutch . daniel : uh , i do n't really understand . maxine : well , when jennifer suggested this group lunch , i was grateful . abe and i have been talking about becoming more than friends and -- but the truth is , it feels a bit off . awkward . daniel : yeah , you did kind of leap at the chance to double - date . maxine : [ laughs ] there 's safety in numbers . [ both laugh ] maxine : but abe and i talked in between and all . daniel : and ? maxine : and ... we decided we like being friends . good friends . so we 're not gon na complicate things . daniel : yeah , well , for now . maxine : for all time . daniel : you okay with that ? maxine : yeah . i am . daniel : all right . well , i know better than to doubt you . maxine : [ laughs ] smart boy . daniel : oh , yeah . well , maxine , i like seeing you happy , so i want for you whatever you want . maxine : you know what ? daniel : hmm ? maxine : you are the best friend anybody could ever have . eric : i understand your concerns . i know this is n't easy for you . it 's not easy for me when my sister and my mom are not rooting for us . nicole : to put it mildly . eric : i do n't know . maybe you 're right . maybe eloping is the best thing for us . nicole : i 'm so glad you see it that way ! eric : but , um -- nicole : oh ! oh , my gosh ! and you know what ? i checked a couple flights before you got here , and we can be in vegas by dinner . eric : [ laughs ] vegas would be kind of fun . nicole : yeah , fun . fun and far away from all those naysayers and people who do n't want to see us together . i love you . i love you so much . both : mm . eric : i love you too . nicole : do you have any idea how happy you 're making me right now ? and you do n't have to do a thing except pack an overnight bag because i am the best planner in the world . and you know , they have those martinis with -- eric : nicole , we 're not gon na get married tonight . nicole : what ? why ? eric : because we ca n't get married tonight . nicole : okay . i have a few vacation days . i 'm sure they wo n't mind if i take them now , and i 'm sure the hospital will be cool with you taking a couple days off . eric : no , no , no . it 's not that . it 's just that they might need a little bit of notice , do n't you think ? nicole : `` they `` ? they who ? eric : our friends , jennifer and daniel . i mean , they should come with us . it 'd be fun , do n't you think ? lucas : i was so unbelievably upset when i heard what nick fallon was doing to my son again with that court battle and the custody agreement . kate : and you thought that by killing nick , you were gon na solve all of will 's problems ? come on , lucas . lucas : yes , yes , but i did n't , mom . i did n't , all right ? that 's the point . and by the time i got your gun and i went to the park , somebody beat me to it . kate : [ sighs ] for the love of god . is this the story that you told to hope ? lucas : no , i did n't tell this story to hope . what do you think , i 'm crazy or something ? kate : okay , okay , good . well , just let this be the last retelling of the story , okay ? lucas : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . kate : now , where 's my gun ? lucas : i threw it in the river . kate : i 'm sorry . what ? lucas : i threw the gun in the river , okay ? i 'm sorry . i panicked , and i lost my mind for a second . kate : [ laughs ] god . so now hope suspects you , and frankly , i do too . and you know something ? i think that 's what you want . lucas : no , it 's not what i want . kate : lucas ... lucas : give me a break . kate : lucas , you 're setting yourself up , are n't you ? lucas : you know what , you 've clearly lost your mind . i am out of here . kate : oh . [ cell phone rings ] ben : hi . jordan : i just heard . are you okay ? ben : yeah , i 'm fine . detective brady just had some questions for me about nick . no big deal . jordan : that 's it ? ben : it did n't come out that we 're brother and sister if that 's what you 're worried about . jordan : well , i was , but not just about that . ben : i get it . but we 're all good , okay ? he wo n't find out . our secret 's safe . he wo n't find us . abigail : ben ? ben : i got ta go . hi . abigail : hi . how 'd it go ? ben : no sweat , no cuffs , no bright light . abigail : i 'm serious . ben : so am i . it was really nothing , abigail . abigail : good . good . i 'm relieved . i 'm sorry . i hate that i got you involved , telling them that you fought with nick . ben : hey , you 've apologized enough , okay ? and like i said before , there 's nothing to be sorry about . you told them the truth . i would n't expect anything less from you . jennifer : honestly , i am worried about daniel . abe , he 's got something on his mind . and he promised to talk to me about it , but i just do n't feel like he 's ready . and i should n't pressure him , right ? i mean , i should just be patient and wait for him . abe : well , i think that 's probably a good idea . jennifer : right , and in most cases , i would agree with you . i mean , if this is something that he wants to handle on his own , that 's fine , of course . i would let him . but you know what , in this situation , i do n't think i can do that . maxine : i know that look . there 's something up with you . daniel : no , hey . max , i 'm all right . it 's okay . it 's all good . maxine : oh , come on , now . i just told you my deal . now come on and tell me yours . daniel : it 's not really something i can talk about with anyone . maxine : daniel jonas , you know that keeping anything from me is a lost cause . daniel : yeah , i do -- yeah , i do kind of know that . maxine : so ... spill . daniel : i just -- i feel like i failed someone . and it 's just -- it 's just killing me . maxine : jennifer ? daniel : no , no . it 's not -- maxine : is everything all right with melanie and parker ? daniel : no , the kids and my mom , they 're fine . yeah . maxine : well , then who is it that you think you failed ? daniel : it 's a friend . i mean , at least i want to be their friend , but now i -- [ groans ] i just do n't know if this person can see me that way again . nicole : daniel and jennifer coming with us to vegas ? eric : yeah . nicole : i mean , that would be such an imposition . i mean , this is such a big trip . and , you know , they have responsibilities , jobs , kids . and i think they would feel pressured . eric : oh , i do n't think so . i mean , if they do , they can just say no . nicole , they 're our friends , our strongest advocates , unlike my family . they 're rooting for us , big - time . honestly , i think they 'd be hurt if we do n't ask them to come . so what do you say ? nicole : well , if they come with us , it could get out that we 're eloping and the idea is , it 's private , just between us . eric : yeah , and jennifer and daniel -- they wo n't say a word if we ask them not to . nicole : well , maybe they wo n't do it intentionally , but what if it just slips out to maggie or that loudmouth julie ? eric : well , we could make them pinkie promise . nicole : no , what ? that 's not gon na work . it 's a bad idea . it 's a really , really bad idea . please , eric . ca n't it just be us ? what ? why are you looking at me like that ? eric : you 're not telling me something . nicole : there 's nothing to tell . just that i want to marry you , and the sooner the better . is that so hard to understand ? eric : the fact that you 're not being honest with me is the only thing i do n't understand . nicole : okay . you 're right . i 'm not being honest with you . and i think it 's time i told you the truth . jordan : i ca n't believe you did n't tell me about this . rafe : well , i ca n't mix up work with my personal life any more than you can , jordan . jordan : my brother was being questioned by the police about a murder . look , i 'm sorry . i have no reason to be upset with you . i know you ca n't reveal any information about the case . rafe : well , i 'm glad you understand . i hope you also understand that i 'm not gon na lie to hope . if she asks , i 'm gon na tell her that ben is your brother . ben : abigail , is something else bothering you ? abigail : what happened is that nick threatened you , and then he ended up eliminated . and the way that he died had dimera written all over it . um ... just that you 're right . you 're right . i had to tell them everything i knew about nick -- everything . ben : what is it , abigail ? what 's the problem ? abigail : once i take care of something , it wo n't be a problem anymore . lucas : well , i 've seen more of you this week than i have in years . hope : please sit . i have a few things i want to go over with you . lucas : okay . you already have my passport . you want my license too ? hope : i want you to tell me one more time what happened that night . lucas : is this the part where you try to catch me making a mistake with my answers , where you trip me up on tape ? hope : no , i do n't have any questions . i just want you to tell me one more time in your own words what happened that night . kate : just the person i wanted to see . ej : oh , hello , kate . sorry , i do n't really have time right now . kate : i need to know how the custody agreement is being worked out now that nick is no longer driving that car . ej : well , gabi and william seem very happy with it . i would imagine if you had anything other than gloomy dna , you would be rather happy with it too . kate : you know , there is someone who finds my personality quite charming . ej : really ? who 's that ? kate : just tell your father the necklace is lovely , but it still gets him nowhere with me . ej : and yet ... kate : and yet ? ej : well , you keep going on about how you ca n't stand him , you detest him , you do n't want to be around him , and yet you keep his jewelry awfully close to your heart . daniel : i am basically forcing my friend to make a hard choice about something very important . hard , but ultimately , in my opinion , it 's the right decision -- the only one . maxine : and your friend did something not so great , i 'm guessing , hmm ? daniel : yeah , yeah , and thinks i 'm playing god , which i 've been accused of doing before . a very different situation , mind you . maxine : can you talk about it ? daniel : it was with my wife , rebecca . she had asked me after all the treatments had failed , not to tell her family from whom she was estranged that she ... she was n't gon na make it . she begged me to promise that . but i just -- i could not make that promise . maxine : you felt like her family needed to know . daniel : yeah . yeah , so i gave her an ultimatum . you tell them the truth , or i would . maxine : and did she ? daniel : yeah , she did . and she was glad and relieved , so she forgave me . in fact , she was very grateful to me . bless her generous heart . you know , but i do n't think this friend will ever forgive me . nicole : the honest truth , besides the fact that i want to marry you so badly ... i have ... eric : you have what ?

what -- why are you -- ej , stop ! what are you doing ? ej ! what -- what are you doing ? ej : just have to be sure , my dear . abigail : sure of what ? will you stop ? you 're freaking me out . what are you -- what 's wrong with you ?

[ cell phone rings ] eve : paige ? paige ? theresa : no , it 's me , with great news . hey , i just got the okay , and you can come down for a visit . they 're about to bring tate in for his feeding . oh , but , hey , wear dark glasses because he is dazzling . [ giggles ] eve : i ca n't . theresa : why not ? eve : i have other things going on . theresa : what could be more important than seeing my son ? paige : it 's a simple question , jj , okay ? why did you sleep with my mother ? okay , then . jj : no , d - d - do n't go . i do n't want to lie to you anymore . i ca n't , and i 'll tell you everything . it 's -- but -- paige : but what ? jj : it 's all so complicated . paige : it 's comp -- jj : okay , it 'll take time , and i do n't think that there 's any way that you or anyone else can understand it , 'cause i do n't understand it myself , but all i could s -- paige : come on . you slept with my mother , and you ca n't tell me why ? jj : i thought i 'd lost you forever , paige . sonny : nothing is going on . paul 's trying to explain to me what happened . will : you mean when he hit me in the face while our daughter was in the next room . sonny : hey , just take it easy . will : take it easy . take it easy . yeah , i guess i 'm being overly sensitive . it 's just i come here to see you , and i find you here with him , alone . so what i 'd like to know , sonny , is what kind of lies he 's feeding you about me now ? sonny : damn it , will , just stop . just stop it . melanie : um ... i 'm not coming in today . i 'm going to take a little time off . brady : it 's no problem . i 'll come to you . melanie : no , no , no , you need to stay at the hospital with theresa and the baby . brady : melanie ... i need to be there for you . like i said , this is important for both of us . melanie : okay , but now 's not a ... really good time . theresa : you know what ? you need to lighten up . hey , look , why do n't you whip up a batch of martinis and then bring 'em down in the thermos ? eve : you know what , theresa ? you have a baby now . your life can no longer be a 24 - 7 frat party . theresa : what ? eve : you know what ? you need to be careful , damn careful ... because you could lose it all in an instant , honey . theresa : where the hell is this coming from , eve ? when did you turn into saint monica ? ugh . anne : so , bubelah , how 's mother of the year ? theresa : [ chuckles ] chad : am i not supposed to notice that you just dodged my question with a question ? stefano : i want to know how you 're feeling . chad : what you 're doing is changing the subject . and what you 're not doing is telling me what you get out of me being with abigail deveraux . stefano : i get to see the only child i have left be happy . i wo n't let anyone or anything stand in the way of that . jennifer : when i saw her ... in that bed with jj , i was so angry . and i was n't just angry at her . i was furious with myself . abigail : what ? why ? jennifer : because i knew that she hated me ... and i knew that she had done so many things in my past to hurt me , and i should have protected him from that . abigail : `` protected him `` ? mom , how -- how could you even think about the stupid , horrible thing that -- jennifer : honey , i am not excusing him . but he was weak , and she is a predator , and because of her , he thought that his life was over , and i was not gon na let her get away with that . abigail : he thought his life was over because he slept with the wrong person ? no , mom , he thought his life was over because he knew he would lose paige if she ever found out . so you all -- you agreed to keep quiet about this , and then you did n't stop there , did you ? jennifer : what is that supposed to mean ? abigail : it means you did n't just agree to keep quiet about this . you did n't even think about what this was doing to paige . jennifer : yes , i did . abigail : no , you did n't , mom . everything that you did or did n't do , it was all for jj . oh , my god . jennifer : what ? abigail : oh , my god , i just remembered . that must 've been when you found out . i was there . i was in your office that day , and you were so upset about something , and i asked you about it , and you told me that you could n't tell me what it was , but that jj -- he really needed our support and that we had to have his back jennifer : yes , he did , yes . abigail : and then you just -- you just went back to work . you were determined to make it like nothing ever happened . you were going to make sure that jj and paige got back together , to hell with what that might do to paige . jj : do you remember what it was like for both of us when we found out about my dad ... about what he did to kayla ? it was so awful , i lied about it . so then i could n't blame you for not believing me when you saw those picture of me and those girls . and that was the same night your mom found out that she could n't have the operation , that she 'd never sing again . paige : yeah , i know . i actually remember that night . jj : we -- me and your mom -- we were both nuts that night , and i 'd been drinking , and then i had a brilliant idea to come and find you so that i could explain , and i went to your apartment , but your mom was there , and she was crying , and everything seemed so awful . paige : so you went to bed together . yeah , that makes sense . jj : paige , that was the worst mistake i have ever made , and i have been trying to find a way to fix it ever since . paige : really ? because you did n't make that mistake just once , did you , hmm ? i know you did n't . how many times was it , jj , hmm ? just how many mistakes did you and mommy dearest make ? chad : i mean , i do n't know , i 'm still getting mixed signals from abigail , and then she 's obviously still with ben , so ... i do n't know -- i do n't think there 's anything you can do to help me . stefano : never doubt yourself , huh ? you are going to succeed . and now i have to go . chad : well , thank you for bringing marlena home . stefano : mwah . chad : and for your support with abigail . stefano : you see , do n't you , huh ? i will do anything for my son . chad : salud . abigail : mom , you had to know that there was a chance paige would find out about this . you had to have known that . so you set this up so that she would already be back in love with jj when she did find out . did it ever occur to you , mom , that paige thought she was starting her new life with the man of her dreams ? you did n't just keep quiet about this , mom . you lied . jennifer : i did n't see it that way . abigail : i understand jj 's desperation to hold on to paige . i do . , i get it . he 's a kid . he loved her . he 's terrified of losing her , but you , mom ... why you went along with this sick deception ... i will never understand that . melanie : [ sniffles ] [ knock at door ] melanie : [ exhales deeply , sniffles ] [ sighs ] maxine : well , i certainly hope you have a good excuse for just taking off from work and not filling out a personal leave request . melanie : right . maxine : well , i guess tracking down a sociopathic kidnapper and returning a baby to its parents works ... just this once . melanie : i wo n't let it happen again . maxine : did i ever tell you you were my hero ? melanie : i just did what was right . maxine : then why are you crying , sweetheart ? anne : i just saw the baby . how lucky is that guy ? his daddy is rich and his mama is good - looking . theresa : wait , wait . did you just say that you saw the baby with your own eyes ? anne : uh , yeah , i just said , `` i saw the baby . `` theresa : oh , see ? i was telling the truth . i was pregnant . anne : yes , it seems you were . whatever . now you have brady black 's son , victor kiriakis 's great - grandson . i mean , he 's one of the richest men in the country . theresa : oh , my god , anne , that totally slipped my mind . [ both laugh ] anne : cha - ching ! brady : ha ha . you two seem to be in a really good mood . theresa : um , yeah , you know what ? gosh , it is so much more than that . i am -- i think this is the happiest i have ever been . anne : oh ... theresa : hi . brady : hi . eve : please , just -- what am i doing ? she 's not going to answer me . oh , my god , where is she ? where is she ? where is she ? where is she ? where 'd she go ? did she go to the horton 's ? i swear to god , if jj lied his way out of this ... my god , i will kill him ! jj : i 'm not going to hide anything from you , 'cause i owe you the truth . paige : at long last , the truth . jj : last christmas , when you were in california , i had it out with your mom , about how she was lying to you about your grandfather dying . i found out that she wanted you to move out there , to keep you away from me forever . and then she threatened to tell you everything . she said that she would rather lose you herself than let you get back with me . paige : so you kept sleeping with her to keep her mouth shut ? jj : paige , i thought that i had lost you forever . i thought that i was never going to see you again . you know that . paige : i do . but you still have n't answered my question . in fact , i 'm more confused than i was before . if you were so angry with her , so upset that she was so ready to tell me the truth , then why did you sleep with her again ... and then again and again ? theresa : i am so looking forward to his next feeding . hey , you know , um , if you want , you could feed him . i mean , that 's why you 're here , right ? brady : actually , i had to let you know that i was going to step out for a little while . theresa : really ? brady : yeah , there 's something i got to do . theresa : oh , i thought you did n't have to work . brady : it 's -- it 's personal . theresa : right . so , yeah , of course . sorry . yeah . melanie : before you got here , i was thinking about , um ... how i was raised and how screwed up i was because of trent , and i was thinking about , what if i had had my mom and dad there ? [ crying ] or just my mom or just my dad , how different everything would have been . i would 've been a better person . maybe i would n't have done all of the screwed - up things that i 've done . maxine : what 's making you think about all this now ? will : stop ? i 'm supposed to stop ? he has made it clear that he wants you back . paul : that 's right . now more than ever . sonny : oh , do n't do that . you 're gon na make it worse . come on ! hey , sonny . somebody hacked into the computer system . sonny : all right , i 'll be right there . i think you should go . will : i do n't . i think that he and i have some issues that we need to resolve . sonny : all right , well , keep it down , 'cause this is n't a locker room . will : so there 's something you wanted to tell me about sonny . paul : only that we were n't talking about you . will : liar . paul : hmm , i 'd be careful using that word if i was you . will : okay , so , if you 're not talking about me , then what were you talking about ? paul : i just asked sonny if he was still in love with me . paige : see , maybe ... maybe i can understand once . i mean , i really ca n't , but for the sake of argument , you were both sad , and so , you know , you decided to comfort each other . but after that , after that , jj ? you know what ? how about we put a pin in it , huh ? yeah , how about some numbers ? how many times was it , hmm ? okay , there was the first time , when you decided to bury your grief in my mother , but then after that , huh , what , two times ? four ? five ? what , whenever you guys could both find some spare time ? jj : it was n't like that , paige . paige : then what was it like , jj ? what ? she hates you , and you wanted her ? jj : i do n't know what i wanted . i felt like such a screw - up because i ruined it all with you . paige : oh , yeah , tell me more about your pain . jj : you know , i do n't expect you to forgive me , but you ca n't possibly hate me as much as i hate myself . paige : do n't be too sure about that . jj : no matter how much i screwed up or how i screwed up ... i do love you . paige , you have to believe that . paige : actually , i do . abigail : mom , i love you , and ... i always will love you . and trust me , i have n't forgotten about all the times you 've stood by me when i 've screwed up , but ... it 's just ... this just does n't seem like you . jennifer : well , i have n't ... felt like myself since that day . abigail : i need to get some air . jennifer : [ sighs ] anne : um , you do know where he 's going -- theresa : yes , anne , i know where he 's going , yes , okay ? what am i supposed to do , tell him to stay away from the woman who got us our son back ? i have to act like i 'm fine with it , you know , like i 'm nice . anne : yeah . no , i know . that 's a real stretch for you . kimberly : oh , my , there 's the new mother . theresa : mom , what are you doing here ? kimberly : i thought that 'd be obvious . i came to see my grandson . theresa : well ... [ clears throat ] the baby 's in isolation . kimberly : okay . um , so ... i 'll take care of you -- excuse me . i 'll take care of you until i can take care of him . jeannie -- theresa : mom -- kimberly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , little baby girl . my darling , my sweet baby , come here , come here . the ordeal you 've been through , theresa . my sweet girl . anne : [ mouths word ] will : can you tell me why you 're doing this ? paul : because of you . you were the one that informed me of my father 's history with your grandmother . they tried to pretend that their love would just go away , and we all know that did not work . will : yeah , but there is a big difference , paul . sonny does n't love you . he loves me . paul : and you 're so sure of that that you cheated on him . then you blackmailed my mother to try and get me out of town so that i would n't find out about my father . will : that is not what happened . paul : and to make things even worse , you called my mother a whore . but , see , sonny knows that . he knows why i punched you . and if you keep lying and pushing me , i swear to god , i will tell sonny about the blackmail too . will : paul , wait . please . chad : abigail . you 're upset . abigail : no , fine . really , it 's nothing for you to worry about . chad : i 'll never forget that you were there for me after i found out my sister died ... how great you were to me . please , if you want to talk , i am here for you . jennifer : go away . eve : no . jennifer : now . eve : looks like the party 's over . what happened ? jennifer : what happened ? you came back to salem and proceeded to destroy everything in your path , including my son and your own daughter . eve : oh , well , that 's new ... blaming me for everything . jennifer : who else would i blame , eve ? eve : jj . he barged into my house and tried to blackmail me . jennifer : well , maybe you would n't get blackmailed if you did n't sleep with your daughter 's boyfriend . eve : oh , you always were a smug , little brat . now you 've managed to produce two more just like you . well , you know what ? this is n't about jj trying to blackmail me . this is about him being so damn stupid that he did n't even bother to see if paige might have been listening in the next room while the boy that she loved went chapter and verse of what he 'd done to her mother . jennifer : right , and that 's not all she heard , was it ? you 're also the one who planted drugs in his backpack . eve : no , no , i did n't ! jennifer : no , you got someone to do it for you . did you pay him to do it or let him take it out in trade ? eve : okay , jennifer , you know what ? we hate each other -- fine . but this is n't about us . i came here because i want to know where my daughter is . so , please , can you just tell me where paige is ? jennifer : [ scoffs ] paige : yeah ... you heard me . i think you do love me . lucky me . jj : paige -- paige : no . you always do all the talking , okay ? it 's my turn . i never thought you were lying about your feelings for me . that 's why , even when i knew you 'd been with someone else , i forgave you . but when you screwed up with my mother , i think that even you realized that that 'd be tough to forgive ... even for a wimp like me . so you told me all kinds of lies and told me how much you loved me over and over again . even today , when you were trying to blackmail my mother , trying to send her to jail ? all so that you could just keep me in the dark . so that i would n't find out what you did , who you are . well , that might be what love means to you , jj , but that 's not love to me . jj : paige -- paige : no , no , no . just stay back and listen , okay ? because there 's one more thing you need to hear that i do believe about you . will : paul , you 're right . i did terrible things . i was wrong . but i was scared to death of losing sonny . paul : if sonny loves you ... will : he does . paul : then how could you possibly lose him ? will : how ? maybe his first love , the man that got away comes back into his life , and now this man is some kind of gay icon . paul : if you think that sonny would choose me over you over some superficial things ...

[ eric coughing ] xander : seems these two never ... quite learn their lesson , do they ? come on . claire : look , you can say whatever the hell you want , but i know exactly how theo feels about me . i know he loves me . wyatt : yeah ? how do you know that ? claire : i 'm sorry -- what kind of a question is that ? he 's my boyfriend . we 're a couple ! wyatt : right . and because you 're so amazing , he could n't possibly have the hots for anyone else . claire : yeah , no , he 's not hot for anyone else because he 's loyal to me . i make him happy ! wyatt : you sure about that ? claire : yes , i 'm sure . wyatt : why ? because he wants to have sex with you ? or maybe you 're already having sex . claire : you are the most disgusting creep i have ever met . wyatt : okay , okay , i withdraw the question -- it 's none of my business , i admit . claire : damn right it 's none of your business . wyatt : i am just trying to make a point ... that maybe you 're deluding yourself thinking that theo 's your devoted boyfriend when , really , he 's in love with ciara . claire : that 's not true . wyatt : then obviously you have n't heard the way he talks about her ... about how smart she is and sweet ... and pretty . talks about her a lot , actually . kinda puts her on this pedestal like she 's god 's gift . if i did n't know any better , i 'd say that ciara was his girlfriend , not you . claire : why am i even listening to you ? you 're just a lying , misogynistic jerk who thinks that he can treat women like dirt and get away with it . wyatt : i am just telling it like it is . claire : okay , well , now it 's my turn to tell it like it is . you are a pathetic loser who 's never gon na see ciara ever again ... because she is a decent and honest human being who 's been through so much hell in her life , okay ? and if anyone else tries to hurt her , ever , i will rip their flipping heart out ! so unless you wan na bleed all over my carpet , get out ! wyatt : sounds like someone 's in denial . claire : get out , now ! wyatt : have ciara call me . claire : have ciara call you ? [ laughs ] no , she 's not gon na call you . you 're never gon na hear her voice or lay eyes on her ever again -- do you understand me ? wyatt : i think that 's up to her , do n't you ? claire : yes , i do , and now that she knows who you really are , there 's nothing you can ever do to make her trust you again , okay ? so stay away from her . stay away from all of us ! theo : ciara , i would never intentionally do anything to hurt you . you have to know that . i - i thought i was helping , okay ? i just -- ciara : just save it . there 's nothing you can say that 's gon na fix it . theo : ciara , please , i -- ciara : you know what ? maybe you 're right . maybe i am just a pathetic loser that ca n't get a date . theo : no -- ciara : maybe i am just damaged goods , and i do n't deserve to be in love . theo : ciara , yes , you do . you deserve it more than anyone , i swear -- that 's why i was -- ciara : that 's why you lied to me ? how the hell did you think you were gon na pull this off ? you talk about how well you know me , but ... turns out you do n't know me at all . theo : ciara , you -- ciara : i 'm done . theo : ciara . ciara , please !

[ suspenseful music ] [ door closes ] claire : where 's ciara ? theo : the square . claire : she okay ? theo : no . claire : are you okay ? theo : no . claire : theo , i 'm so sorry . theo : no one to blame but me . claire : why did n't you tell me about wyatt ? theo : 'cause it was a secret . claire : but you could n't even tell me ? theo : i really screwed up . i mean , what was i thinking ? what if she never forgives me ?

[ tense music ] eric : no , deimos would not hurt you . nicole : you do n't know what deimos is capable of . he 's a monster . eric : no . what would the point be ? deimos -- if he wanted revenge , what would the whole point be of sending xander to canada to kidnap you ? why would n't he just do it himself ? nicole : i guess , but ... eric : know what i think ? i think that he sent xander to kidnap you so he could ride in on his little horse and rescue you . yeah , and then you would , like , come running in to him , and you would be all happy , and the two of you could just live happily ever after together . nicole : you 're right . i mean , it all makes sense . as much as i despise you ... deimos is much worse . oh , god , eric , what am i gon na do ? [ intense musical buildup ] xander : yeah ? deimos : did you get my text ? xander : i did . i just did n't get a chance to reply yet . deimos : everything all right ? xander : it is . deimos : excellent . i 'll be coming for nicole tonight . xander : and eric ? deimos : he 's a liability . xander : what do you want me to do with him ? deimos : nothing . i want the pleasure of taking care of him myself .

jack : the era of inept law enforcement is over . eve : yes . jack : we are cracking down on crime and cracking down hard . yeah ! yeah ! jack : so , without further ado , i am pleased and proud to announce my new and improved police commissioner , eeeeve deveraux ! [ crowd whooping ] jennifer : [ mouthing ] what ? jack : it was eve who first encouraged me to run for mayor . she was a stellar campaign manager , and i have complete confidence that with this tough , smart , visionary woman leading the salem pd , we will finally restore law and order ! [ cheers and applause ] eve : thank you so much , mr . mayor . [ jack laughs ] and i 'm honored to accept this position , and i look forward to our continued partnership as we fight on behalf of these wonderful citizens of this great city . [ cheers and applause ] jack : all right ! any questions ? y - yes ? jennifer : i have one . have you lost what 's left of your mind ? [ knocking on door ] hope : haley ? jj ? [ knocking ] come on , open up . you have a credit card ? eli : yeah . hope : do n't worry -- i wo n't ruin it . tripp : hey . what 's going on ? hope : tripp . w - what are you doing here ? where 's jj and haley ? ciara : lani lied to me . rafe : lani . you did n't tell me that ciara came by yesterday . and i had no idea that david was sick . lani : okay , yeah , i lied . but i was only trying to protect david . rafe : protect him from what ? lani : from ben . there 's no way that man is stable enough to be around his nephew . claire : ignore this . ha ha ! mm - hmm . [ dark music ] [ door opens ] ben : claire . what are you doing ? [ intense music ] male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] claire : have n't you heard ? tripp broke up with me . ben : ciara told me . i 'm sorry . claire : well , you know , tripp 's the one who should be sorry . i literally went above and beyond to help haley . i ... i let my boyfriend marry another woman , knowing that it was gon na destroy my relationship . and guess what . it did . ben : well , maybe you and tripp can work things out . claire : i just -- i did n't want him to get in trouble . right ? i wanted to protect him . i wanted to be with him . did he appreciate that ? at all ? no . no , ben , not one bit . and now ... [ chuckles ] you have no idea how much this hurts . ben : well , you 're obviously really upset about tripp . but what 's up with his clothes ? were you gon na torch 'em ? [ off - key violin notes ] rafe : i know you wan na protect david , but ... hey . you do n't have to lie , okay ? just come to me . lani : rafe , you have enough that you 're dealing with , and i do n't want to pile on . ciara : i 'm sorry , but why , exactly , is lani a part of this discussion ? who is she to say whether ben is stable enough to spend time with his own nephew ? lani : i really do n't understand why all of a sudden ben is so determined to be around his nephew . ciara : when ben was growing up , jordan took care of him . and when they finally ran away from his sadistic father , her stepfather , she was all that ben had . so all he 's trying to do is be there for her son the same way she was for him . rafe : hmm . yeah . i do n't know , i - i -- ciara : you can set ground rules , you can supervise . come on , rafe , you can do anything you want . just please do n't shut ben out , please . and do n't deny that sweet baby the only family he has right now . eli : no sign of haley and jj . tripp : i tried to tell you guys they were n't here . hope : what you have n't said is why you 're here . tripp : so when haley and jj took off , i was listening to my dad 's police scanner , and i heard you guys might have a tip that they might be at this motel and so i came here to try to convince them to turn themselves in , but they were gone . i do n't know if they were ever really here at all . hope : you expect me to believe any of that ? tripp : why would n't you ? hope : you married haley to keep her from being deported . all of a sudden , now you want her to turn herself in ? tripp : things are getting a little out of hand . hope : something we both agree on -- haley and jj are in deep trouble . if you 're holding out on me , you 're gon na be in it right alongside them . jj : i 'm glad tripp was able to bring us money for these outfits . hope we fooled the guys on the ferry . haley : i 've always wanted to see smith island ever since you told me about it , just ... not like this . jj : well ... this is my family cabin . we 'll be safe here for a little while until we figure out how to get into canada . haley : i like it . it 's really , really charming in a ... rustic sort of way . i bet you had a lot of good memories here growing up . jj : yeah , i sure did . haley : jj ... are you sure about this ? you really want to give up your whole life to run away with me ? things are bad . jj : haley , we ... we talked about this . i - i ... i want to get away from my dad . and my mom can come visit us . hey ... canada is awesome . haley : it is ? jj : yeah , first of all , it 's beautiful . and the people are so nice there and .... there 's hockey and skiing and moose . haley : [ laughs ] moose . jj : yeah , sure . who does n't like moose ? haley : i just -- i - i did n't know you were a fan . jj : remember , i used to be a cop . maybe i could become a royal mountie . hmm ? haley : [ laughs ] yeah , yeah , no , i can , um ... yeah , i can totally see you rocking that red jacket . uh , and that hat -- so hot . jj : yeah . what about poutine ? haley : uh , excuse me ? jj : it 's a canadian junk food classic . gravy on top of fresh fries and cheese curds . haley : yeah , i - i do n't know about that , but ... but i am pretty starving . jj : starving ? haley : mm - hmm . jj : i do n't know if there 's so much around here except , uh , two cans of beans and weenies . haley : beans with what ? jj : weenies . you know , like little hot dogs ? franks and beans ? check it . my mom always , uh , kept a few cans around for sentimental reasons . apparently , she and my dad survived on these when they were on the run . haley : okay , now , that is a story i need to hear . jj : you know , believe it or not , those were happy times for my parents . seeing them now ... it 's hard to believe they were ever happy . jennifer : you 're replacing hope brady hernandez with your wife ? is this a joke ? jack : joke ? no ! no , not at all . as i said earlier , eve did a brilliant job as my campaign manager , and i expect her to do the same for the salem police department . jennifer : is she qualified ? because she has no background in law enforcement . she 's more likely to commit a crime than stop one . eve : jack , come on . we 're done . jack : i -- uh , t - thank you . thank you , that 'll be all for today , thank you for coming , and as always , thank you for your support , thank you -- jennifer : you are making a huge mistake , jack . come on ! jack : i know you are upset about your cousin , but i 'm the decider -- i 've made my decision . jennifer : making eve top cop ? are you kidding me ? have you lost your mind , jack ? how are you gon na sell that to the public ? eve : well , newsflash for you , jennifer -- police commissioner 's an administrative job . you do n't have to be a cop . i 'm gon na bring a fresh perspective to the position -- an outside view . jennifer : an outside view ? you 're married to the man who gave you the job , eve . eve : and i 'm sure you 're gon na put that in that little hatchet piece that you 're gon na write about us after this . but i can tell you right now -- i 'm completely independent . eve : no , you 're not . you 're gon na be a complete failure , because you are no more qualified to run a police department than he is to be mayor . rafe : i 'm looking after david because jordan asked me to . and my priority is to keep him safe . ciara : yeah , but ben would never hurt anybody , especially his own nephew . rafe : ciara -- ciara : how could letting him spend a little time together be harmful ? and besides , you obviously need help with the baby , otherwise lani would n't be around him all the time . lani : oh , no , i 'm happy to help . ciara : yeah , well , so is ben . rafe : [ small laugh ] ciara : rafe , can you please just try to give him a chance ? please , please , please , please , please , please ? please . rafe : okay , you know what ? [ mug thunks down ] tell you what i 'm gon na do . i 'm gon na talk to jordan . but i will tell you , the last time i saw her , she was not in a good place . i will ask her , however , and if she says it 's okay ... then i guess i 'm okay with it . claire : ha ha . torch them ? uh ... why on earth would i do that , ben ? i 'm angry , but i 'm not crazy . ben : so what 's the plan here ? claire : well , tripp tossed me out like trash , so ... figured i would toss his clothes into the hallway and show him how mad i am -- i do n't know . ben : i do n't blame you . claire : you do n't ? ben : no . claire : ciara understood how i felt , but , um , i really did n't expect you to . ben : yeah , well , what tripp did was completely unfair ... expecting you to , what , just wait around for years ? it 's just wrong . claire : thank you . yeah , try telling tripp that . ben : i could . but honestly , i think you could do a lot better . i have n't really been a big fan of that guy since he tried to frame me for setting that fire at the cabin . claire : yeah , i know . that was a horrible thing to do . ben : you know they reopened the case , right ? jordan swears she had nothing to do with it , and even though there 's zero proof linking me to the fire , i 'm back to being the number one suspect . go figure . all because of that cigarette lighter . you know , the one jj found in your jewelry box ? claire , i know you think i left it here , but i 'm telling you -- claire : well , how -- how else would i have ended up with it ? ben : i do n't know , claire . all i know is that that is the lighter that jj took to the police , because it was the same kind of lighter that i used with chad and abigail . and then ciara told the police that it was similar to the one that i had back at the cabin . claire : so ? ben : so if the police decide that lighter 's mine , i 'm gon na go to prison . that 's why i would like to take a look at it for myself . can i see it , please ? claire : no ! no , you can't . tripp : i wish i could help you guys , but i honestly have no idea where haley and jj are . hope : and i honestly think that you know more than you 're saying . he leaves us no choice but to bring him in for questioning . cuff him . tripp : what ? eli : let 's go . tripp : [ scoffs ] [ beep beep ] eli : what is it ? hope : tripp 's lucky day . `` you have ... officially been relieved of your duties as police commissioner . cheers . `` mayor jack deveraux . my pink slip .

's office this afternoon . ej : did you ? taylor : i did , but i did n't tell him ... who i was or give them your name or anything . i just -- i told them that someone told me they 'd done something illegal . ej : what ? is that why you asked me to come down here ? taylor : it 's part of the reason . ej : mm - hmm ? taylor : it 's part of the reason , yes . anyway , i was talking to the guy on the phone and he asked me -- he said , `` well , you tell me what happened , who it was , and what happened , `` that he would take care of it from there . and i asked him what it meant . and he said if they could prove that a crime was committed that he would notify the police and then they 'd bring the person in . so i told them that i had to think about it and i hung up the phone . i -- i could have gotten you arrested . and i do n't even know what would have happened after that . i mean -- i mean , i do n't know what they could prove . you say that troy is -- he 's in a coma , right ? and so it would be what i said against what you told me he said and that -- that would just be -- [ stammering ] oh , god . ej : you do n't say ? taylor : right , right . right . but of course there would be publicity because of who you are . and then i thought , okay , you might lose custody of sydney and johnny and then with everything sami 's going through with her losing her husband , she does n't seem in a good place and then i thought nicole would -- would -- who knows what she 's gon na do with that ? huh ? and i just -- i do n't know . i thought about what -- what about johnny and sydney ? they 're gon na have no parent that they can count on . it 's not why i did n't call the d.a . back . ej : what was the reason ? taylor : i could n't do that to you . [ scene_break ] gabi : so i 've never made out in a storage closet before . will : yeah . too bad that beer truck came when it did . gabi : [ chuckles ] will : still though , that storage room will never be the same . gabi : [ giggles ] will : you know , it 's so good to see you smile . oh , i 've been thinking , um ... about what you said about my mom and ... rafe has been such a jerk since the accident , right , and nobody knows why . but before that , he was , like , this awesome , you know , totally nice guy and you loved him and my mom loved him and you 're never gon na forget that and then she 's never gon na forget that , so it 's like this -- this big , um , you know -- this good thing that you two have in common . gabi : yeah , i mean , i hope she sees it like that . i 'm gon na go freshen up . will : okay . [ scene_break ] sami : do n't worry about me , rafe . i 've got game . rafe : do n't i know it . [ laughter ] ah , just wish we had some more intel . sami : we 'll just improvise as we go . rafe : i was afraid you 'd say something like that . [ cell phone rings ] sami : oh . rafe : what 's up ? who 's it from ? sami : it 's a text from will . he 's , um , saying that he wants to talk to me about gabi . rafe : perfect . sami : yeah , you might get to see her . they 're both at the pub right now . [ scene_break ] carly : if this is about some open police case , ca n't you get some other staff member to -- bo : no , this is n't police business , it 's personal . i was talking to sami this morning . she broke up with rafe ... and i could hear in her voice what she 's been going through . carly : oh , do n't do this . do n't do this . bo : what happened to us was very unfair to you . carly : i do n't want to make you feel guilty , but i ca n't tell you that i 'm just fine . not honestly anyway . bo : okay , so you 'd like me to keep my distance . i get that . it 's understandable . um ... some mail came for you by the house . it looked like some important stuff . carly : it 's junk mail . kind of wasted a trip . oops . bo : um , something 's going on with you that you 're not telling me ? carly : i 'm telling you i want you to leave me alone . bo : well , that 's not gon na happen . i know you . we 've been through hell together . and you 're different . i mean , uh , it 's pretty obvious when you stopped by the house , so i 'm not going anywhere until you talk to me . [ scene_break ] kate : i think you are waiting for someone . i really do . i wonder who that could be . i mean , i ca n't imagine anyone even wanting to be seen with you , never mind share a drink with you , outside of that little nebbish that you pay to trail you , carry your train , and i saw him leave . vivian : yes . i asked gus for some privacy . kate : ahh . so you 're meeting someone and it 's private . you 're expecting stefano , are n't you ? [ scene_break ] rafe : all right , so we 'll stop at the pub and then we 'll do what we got to do . sami : okay . rafe : did you text will back ? sami : no , i thought maybe it 'd be better to play it by ear . rafe : right . sami : come on , we are gon na pull this off and we are gon na get our lives back . [ scene_break ] ej : so you 're not going to turn me in ? taylor : when you say that you want to live another life , i -- i believe you , okay ? and i want you to have that chance . ej : okay , but if you say nothing , can you live with your conscience ? taylor : all i can tell you is that when i made that decision , i -- i felt relieved . i felt like i did the right thing . ej : okay . i 'm sorry . it means a lot to me if you 're willing to put this behind you . taylor : well , arianna died . i mean -- you 've been punished . ej : she was the one who was punished and fairly . and me ... i have to live with that every day for the rest of my life . look . when i told you that my fate was in your hands , i was n't talking about giving you the opportunity to go to the authorities . i was talking about giving you the opportunity to say that you wanted nothing more to do with me . you have n't given me the answer to that one . [ scene_break ] carly : how 's hope ? bo : a lot better now that ciara 's home . carly : that 's good . why do n't you go home and concentrate on her ? bo : things got so dangerous with her there at the end that you and i never had the chance -- carly : had a chance to what ? to break up properly ? to have closure ? bo : you were very understanding at the time . i 'm thinking maybe you did n't have the chance to say some things . carly : okay , i 'll tell you what i did n't have a chance to say . i know i was just there until you decided hope needed you more or you needed her more or whatever that was . bo : that 's not true . you -- you know how i feel about -- carly : what difference does it make what i know ? what are we doing ? what -- what difference does it make what we say to each other ? why do n't you go home and pretend you and i never happened ? because god knows that 's what i 'm trying to do . bo : do you have people you can talk to ? carly : stop . just -- i have people . i 've got daniel , i 've got melanie , and jennifer 's back in town . bo : that 's another reason i wanted to talk to you . carly : what ? bo : jenn and daniel are seeing each other . carly : so ? bo : is that difficult for you ? carly : i 'm happy for them and i find this to be unbelievably patronizing . so you 'll excuse me . i have work to do . [ scene_break ] kate : it is stefano , is n't it ? vivian : surprised ? kate : mmm . surprised that you 're so gullible that you 'd believe that he 'd actually meet you ? yes , i am . and as a matter of fact , i 'm gon na call him and we are going to have a great laugh about it . oh , my god . look what i did . took stefano 's phone by mistake . vivian : so you sent the text ? kate : you get it . vivian : oh , well , he 's not gon na like that . kate : you know , you 're right . he adored it . he adored it when i told him all about it over lunch . he just howled . and you know why ? because he 's not interested in you , vivian . not personally . not professionally . and i only can assume that you hang on to this fantasy because you have nothing else in your life to think about . no man , no children , no pets , no plants , nothing except that silly sycophant who follows you around . so if you 're waiting for stefano to look at you , you 're going to be waiting a long , long time . go home , vivian . do n't bother us again . vivian : [ sighs ] get in your laughs . why do n't you go get some more blue streaks in your hair ? think this is going to make life easier for you , you better think again , cookie . bartender , could i have a vodka martini straight up ? hold the vegetables . [ scene_break ] taylor : come on , that 's not the only reason ... that i could n't send you to jail . i do n't want to be without you . ej : come here . i like that reason . taylor : i 'm not sure i do . 'cause i do n't like being out of control and i am . but i do n't want to live without you . ej : you ... do n't have to . [ scene_break ] gabi : so i was thinking about what you said . about remembering the good times with rafe . i just -- i keep thinking about when arianna died and how he was there . he got me through it . just he thought about things in this great way . but i just -- i ca n't forget about the last time i saw him . rafe # 2 : did you not understand me ? gabi : would you stop being such a jerk ? i mean , i 'm your sister and i care about what 's happening and if i ask you a question , you answer me . that 's our deal . rafe # 2 : that 's the deal ? let me tell you what the deal is . you stay the hell out of my business , okay ? you got it ? gabi : [ scoffs ] i miss the brother i used to have ... not the one i have now . i never want to see him again . will : oh , my god . sami : hey . we 're home .

[ laughs ] marlena : i do n't think he understood either . but the important thing for you to hang on to is that your daughter is safe and she 's loved ... as are you . gabi : i do . and now i 'm back in school just in time for finals . and i actually have a shoot tonight . marlena : so , getting back into the routine ? gabi : yes . marlena : the best answer for you -- it 's perfect . gabi : and , um , i 'm just thinking about ... you know , all the times that we 're gon na have like this ... our beautiful little family . lucas : i did n't go to the park that night , and i did n't shoot nick . hope : do you know what dew point is ? lucas : dew point ? what does that have to do with -- hope : it 's the temperature in which water starts to evaporate and settle on the ground , forming dew . the dew point the night nick fallon was killed was at 8 : 35 p.m. that 's ten minutes before he was shot . the moisture on the ground made the area softer ... and forensics was able to match the dirt from the park ... to the dirt in your shoes . you do realize what that means , do n't you ? it puts you at the scene of the crime around the time that nick fallon was shot . nicole : do n't answer it . let it go to voicemail . eric : why not ? nicole : let me just explain things first before you talk to him . eric : hey , daniel . daniel : i 'm glad i reached you . are you with nicole ? abigail : oh , my god . oh , my god , i ca n't believe this ! ej : abigail , just calm down . abigail : even when i was scared that you had done this , i did n't think that you actually would do this . i -- oh , my god . i slept with a man who pays someone to kill people . this is all my fault . i never should have told you that nick knew about us . i never should have told you that . i should have known better ! you are a dimera ! other people 's lives -- they mean nothing to you ! ej : you did not tell me anything i did not already know . when i came into your mother 's office and i met you , that whole process was already in motion . abigail : the -- the process ? so -- so setting out to kill someone -- that is a process ? you told me not to tell my mother , a - and it was ... it was already -- you said that you could convince nick to keep quiet about us , and it was already in motion ! you had already hired someone to kill him ? ej : yes , i had . abigail : i have to tell hope . i have to tell hope . i can not believe this . well , i guess i 'm a liability now , too , right ? you gon na hire someone to kill me ? ej : shh ... abigail : i know you do n't like to dirty your own hands . ej : do yourself a favor . shut up and listen , okay ? now , when i finish talking , and i believe that you 've really heard what i have to say ... then you can leave . okay ? abigail : please , do n't ! i do n't want to hear anything more , please ! please stop ! stop ... ej : stay there . see this ? abigail : you think that you can pay me off ? ej : this is the money that i paid the man to kill nick . abigail : [ whispers ] what ... ej : but he did n't do it . so he gave it back to me . abigail , he did n't ... do it . sami : well , the nightmare was n't as bad , and when we went to her , she had an easier time getting back to sleep . marlena : well , that 's good news . honey , i think she 'll be fine . she 's strong , same as you were . sami : mom , i did n't go through something like that at her age . i did n't see someone i knew covered in blood and collapsing in front of me . marlena : we ca n't keep our children from seeing terrible things . but i 'm so glad she has you to see her through it . sami : well , i 'm so glad that we both have you , mom . marlena : you always do . mm . [ chuckles ] look , i wish i could stay longer , but i 've got so much i have to do . um ... and happy birthday to you , my darling girl . everybody , thank you so much . i had a wonderful time . gabi : say bye ! marlena : bye - bye . [ laughter ] kate : you know , gabi , i want to thank you for being so very generous about the custody agreement . gabi : i was n't being generous . i was being fair . it 's what i wanted all along ... that she is surrounded by the people who love her . will : hey ! sonny : hey , my folks love those pictures i sent them . i 'm really sorry they could n't be here . will : well , they 're visiting your brothers -- they have a perfectly valid excuse . unlike my dad . sonny : you texted him ? will : yeah . he did n't get back to me . i just hope that he gets here before we have to put arianna down for her nap . sami : mm ! what nap ? sonny : i guess , uh , ej had a lot of work to do today , huh ? sami : oh , yeah , he has a lot on his plate right now . abigail : you never stop , do you ? it 's just one lie after another after another . ej : let me ask you something . why do you think i 've called you here and told you all of this if it was n't true ? abigail : because you are scared to death that i will crack and tell someone what happened -- that 's why you did this . that 's why you came up with this new truth so that i would n't feel so guilty , so that i would keep quiet . ej : abigail , do you really think this hit man 's gon na take all of my money , go and kill nick , and then give it all back to me ? abigail : because hit men are known for having a conscience ? ej : [ snaps ] no . they have a keen instinct for self - preservation . he knew who he was working for and he understood the consequences of crossing a dimera . abigail : and all this money ... this is the money that you gave the hit man , and i 'm just supposed to -- what ? just take your word for it ? after all the lies that you have told me , ej , what on earth makes you think that i would believe you now ? ej : because you know when i 'm lying . you called me on that the other day . abigail ... i am not responsible for killing nick . someone else did that . not me . daniel : eric ? are you still there ? eric : yeah , i 'm still here . with nicole . we 're talking about something very important . i 'm gon na have to call you back . daniel : he sounds like hell . nicole ... must have told him the truth . i guess i should have trusted her . [ cell phone rings ] daniel : chloe . uh , it is -- yeah . no , it 's right here . yeah , i will , uh -- i 'll send it express . parker should have it tomorrow morning . no , no , no , no problem at all . i can use the distraction . okay . bye . [ sighs , smooches ] nicole : thank you for not saying anything to daniel . eric : not yet . nicole : right . i just thought it would be best if you heard the whole story from me first . as a matter of fact , i - i told daniel i thought it might be better if i did n't say anything at all ... which is why it was so hard for you to get it out of me . but obviously , i ca n't keep secrets from you . eric : okay , nicole , just tell me what 's going on . please just tell me . gabi : wow . that is a beautiful necklace . kate : oh , thank you . gabi : are those real diamonds ? kate : of course they are . gabi : oh , wow , i 've never seen it before -- is it new ? kate : um ... it was a gift from an admirer . sami : kate . can i talk to you for a second ? in private ? kate : here we go . [ sighs ] okay , if you 're interrupting my time with arianna , it had better be good . abigail : even if i did believe all this , it does n't change the fact that you did hire someone to kill nick . someone else just beat you to the punch . ej : oh , hey , abigail . hey , whoa , hey , wait ! all right ? do n't you see ? what he was doing to us he was doing to a lot of other people . this guy thought it was fun to just ruin people 's lives . abigail : that does n't give anyone the right to kill him ! and he could have changed ... ej : really ? you really believe that ? you saw what he was capable of , abigail . abigail : that does n't mean that he had to die . it was n't the only solution , ej ! ej : yes , it was . you know why it was ? 'cause he made it the only solution 'cause he pushed people and he pushed people and he pushed people until they wanted to kill him . and you know what he did ? he pushed them some more . abigail : [ whispers ] but who ? who in that square hated him enough to want him dead ? ej : oh ! [ laughs ] you did n't , abigail ? who did n't ? hmm ? lucas : [ clears throat ] the dirt on my shoes must have been from before . i mean , i was at the park earlier that week . hope : we also have impressions from several different shoe sizes from the ground that night . they all can be accounted for ... except one . and guess whose shoe just happens to match perfectly . lucas : mine . hope : shall we start again ? and this time with the truth . marlena : oh ! oh ! daniel : aw , jeez ! marlena : oh , my gosh ! daniel : i got it . i got it . nobody 's hurt -- are you okay ? marlena : oh , yeah , of course . i 'm so sorry . daniel : i 'm very sorry . no , this is just -- i was n't really watching where i was going and texting and walking . marlena : we both were a little distracted , and you should n't do that anyway . you know that . you 're a grown - up . daniel : yeah , i know . well , this is a toy for my son , who 's not so grown up . yeah , i was on my way to send it to him at chloe 's . he 's only told me a million times to pack it , and i always manage to forget it . you know , maybe i subconsciously just want to hang on to him . marlena : maybe so ... 'cause it 's hard to let go of our children , is n't it ? daniel : oof ... marlena : especially when we feel we 've let them down . daniel : you okay ? marlena : yeah . no . n - no . do you have a minute ? i 'd love to chat about eric . nicole : eric , i - i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i 'm all over the place . i was just totally blindsided by this whole thing . eric : wait . so that 's why you and daniel were upset when jennifer and i came in , because he told you that he loved you ? nicole : right . eric : what about jennifer ? nicole : well , i - i ... it 's complicated . he does love jennifer , but he realized just recently that he ... loves me too . you know , and he was ... kind of denying it . then i told him that we were engaged , and he just got really upset . even he did n't understand why at first , and he blurted it out . eric : that he loved you . nicole : and then he was mortified and he could n't take it back -- obviously it was too late -- eric : okay , that does n't make any sense , nicole . nicole : okay , hey , hey , wait . love does n't make sense . we have a long history . we spent a lot of time together . we were trying to clear your name , teaming up to go after chyka . just ... stirred up old feelings again . eric : and you did n't know anything about it . nicole : i , uh , i never told you this , but we did kiss once . before you and i got back together . eric : i know , i saw you together on new year 's . and other times . so i can see why you were so close . so do you have feelings for him too ? nicole : no . no , eric , you are the only man that i love ... which is why ... we have to do exactly what i 'm about to say . will : i think this is gon na become a regular tradition -- mom and grandma taking it outside . gabi : do you think they 're fighting ? will : does the sun rise in the morning ? sonny : yeah . too bad my mom 's not here to smooth things over . will : [ chuckles ] gabi : do you think it 's about the necklace ? will : i do n't know , but i know my mom got a text message this morning that she was n't happy about . gabi : maybe it was from your dad ? kate : jewelry from whomever i want to ... sonny : tell me , will , have your mom and kate ever argued about lucas ? sami : that 's fine . then go ahead -- be stupid . kate : just go to hell . sami : i just do n't think that you -- i 'm sorry , everybody . i apologize . i certainly did not mean to cause a scene . maybe i should go . kate : yeah , well , that 's the first thing we agree on . gabi : look who 's here ! sami : hi , sweetheart . can i just give you one more big birthday hug ? yes , my big girl with the spoon ! [ gabi giggling ] sami : happy birthday , sweetheart . gabi : yeah . thank you ! sami : thank you so much , gabi , for having me here . gabi : thanks for helping out . sami : of course . thank you , sonny . sonny : thank you . sami : kate . [ tonelessly ] always a pleasure . um , well , thank you for having me , and you know what , i forgot part of her present and it 's back at the house . so come by later , okay ? will : mom , what happened ? i thought that you and grandma were getting along . sami : oh . [ laughs ] we were n't . i mean , we had a truce going for the whole situation with nick , but since he 's gone , obviously , that is over too . will : wow . well , maybe by ari 's 16th birthday , you two will have , um ... what 's the word ? grown up ! sami : ha ha . do n't be mean . i love you . come by later , okay ? will : yeah . sami : and , uh , i 'm sorry to break up the party . i just ca n't stand to be here with that witch any longer . will : [ ahem ] kate : more cake , anyone ? lucas : okay . fine . i 'll tell you the truth . hope : do you want to call your lawyer ? lucas : no . hope : then talk to me . tell me exactly what happened that night . lucas : you 're right , i was there that night , but it was after nick was shot . hope : do you know what time it was exactly ? lucas : no . no , i do n't . by the time i got there , he was on the ground , he was covered in blood , and he was not moving . hope : then what 'd you do ? lucas : i left . hope : why did n't you call the police ? lucas : because i knew that i would look guilty and , honestly , i thought he was dead . i - i really did . i mean , if i had known that he was alive , i would have ... hope : what ? would it have made a difference ? or would you have left him there to die ? ej : i do hope you realize that any admission of an affair or accusations made against me for killing nick wo n't achieve anything except , of course , a great deal of pain to a great number of people . abigail : right . right . how could telling the truth just to clear your own conscience be worth it if it hurts innocent people ? of course , we 're not innocent . ej : no , we are not . but your mother is innocent . her brother is innocent , as are my children . look ... you are right . this is something that we have to live with for the rest of our lives . but that 's true whether or not the truth comes out . abigail : i know . i want to go now . sami : hi ! abigail ! what are you doing here ? marlena : thank you . uh , i know that you and eric are very close , so you must be aware that we 've hit a little bumpy place in the road . mostly because of the way that i feel about nicole . daniel : well , nicole is also a friend of mine . marlena : i understand . i know , so you do n't have to defend her . i 'm not going to say anything unpleasant about her . in fact , i 've come to realize that i 've ... well , i 've been a little unfair to nicole . nicole : i did n't want to tell you this , eric . daniel is a good friend . he risked his life for you . eric : good friends do n't go after friends ' fiancées . nicole : well , he did n't , okay ? he did n't mean for any of this to happen , he feels terrible about it , and like i said , he still loves jennifer . he 's just confused right now . eric : did he tell jennifer how he feels about you ? nicole : no . and we ca n't say anything to her either . especially if it 's just a passing infatuation . i had it myself with ej . you get so wrapped up in these intense feelings that you do n't realize it 's not actually love . and then you end up destroying the happiness of the people around you . we need to keep our distance from daniel and just ... give him the time he needs to realize that he loves jennifer , not me . we need to do what i said ... go to vegas ... elope . eric : we 're gon na have to deal with this afterwards . nicole : not if we do n't come back . you got the bargain kind ? sami : oh , i know why you 're here . you came to check on allie . that is so sweet of you . abigail : yeah , well , i - i know how difficult that night was for me , so i can only imagine how hard it was for a poor little girl . sami : of course . well , i was just saying to my mom that she 's starting to come around . how are you ? abigail : i 'm fine . listen , i 'm sorry , but , uh , i - i have to go . sami : oh , yeah , i 'll walk you out . um , how is maggie doing ? have you talked to her ? [ cell phone ringing ] ej : dimera . when did that happen ? okay , you keep me posted , all right ? lucas : you 're right , i know . i should have called for help . maybe if i did , nick would still be alive right now . hope : it would n't have made a difference . a doctor could have been standing right next to nick , and he still would n't have made it . lucas : i appreciate you telling me that , because it 's been killing me . it 's been eating me up inside . hope : is that the only reason you feel guilty ? lucas : hope , i 'm telling you the truth . i did n't do it . hope : you know i want to believe you , do n't you ? there 's just so many things that do n't add up . okay , you said you left the pub immediately after you texted nick . lucas : [ quietly ] yeah . hope : but there 's no way it would have taken you more than ten minutes to get where nick was in the park , and according to the timeline , you had to have gotten there before he was shot . lucas : i - i did n't go there right away . hope : where did you go ? lucas : i went to get a gun . marlena : it was so difficult for me to hear that eric was planning to marry nicole . you know , i always felt that -- i still feel that eric 's place is with the church . and i was just , uh , i was just sick to pieces to know that kristin had done what she did and eric still has not been vindicated . not that i care what people think about it , but you know what ? it 's just so unfair to eric . daniel : yeah , well , unfair does n't quite cover it , really . marlena : and i was so angry about what happened , and then my own anger at myself , and i guess i focused all that on nicole . and that is n't , you know , deserved by her , because she 's been the one who 's trying to help eric prove his innocence . so i - i guess i just have to ... i have to respect eric 's choice , and i have to expect that he loves her and he 's planning on marrying her . daniel : yeah , i 'm not quite sure why you 're telling me this . marlena : [ laughs ] well ... i do n't expect you to smooth things over with eric and me ... you know , you were right when you sort of dressed me down for grilling nicole about chyka . i never , ever should have questioned her loyalty to eric . daniel : okay , marlena , there is no reason for you to apologize . eric : so , because of daniel 's passing infatuation , you want us to leave salem ... my family , our friends . nicole : i do n't mean forever . i was thinking more along the lines of an extended honeymoon . then again , what 's so great about salem ? after everything that happened last year , you 'd think you 'd want a fresh start somewhere new . eric : listen , if i want a fresh start , i want it based on my decision , not daniel 's feelings . nicole : okay . okay , we 'll make that decision later , but the most important thing is to give daniel the time he needs to realize that his life is with jennifer . eric , after everything he has done for us , do n't you think we owe him that ? eric : i think you have a lot of reasons for eloping , you know , and i just do n't think you want to deal with sami or my mom . i 'm just not sure if this is a good idea . nicole : okay , uh , well ... there is something else . daniel asked me to hold off on getting married until he gets his feelings clear . eric : oh , well , he 's got a lot of nerve , does n't he ? nicole : well , he 's desperate , and i 'm afraid if we stay here , he 'll try to keep us from getting married or keep us from being together . eric : all right , then ... i think it 's time i have a little chat with him . nicole : eric , no , no , please . gabi : wow . kate , this is ... this is too much . kate : oh ... will : grandma , is n't the point of a add - a - pearl necklace to start with one pearl and then add a pearl ? kate : well , this is actually a different concept . this is add a strand . [ laughs ] never really agreed with that `` less is more `` concept . you know that . especially when it comes to precious stones . will : well , that necklace ai n't exactly minimalistic . [ kate cooing to baby ] will : who , uh , who gave it to you ? kate : not you too . will : i 'm just asking . [ baby fussing ] gabi : come here , silly . kate : it 's from stefano . the ring is as well . will : oh , my god . you 're not -- you 're not -- no , i ca n't even say it . kate : okay , no , no . i 'm not back with stefano . but as i told sami , it 's really none of anyone 's business . will : no , you 're just accepting jewelry from stefano , and that 's fine , because stefano never expects anything in return . sonny : will , we 're talking about stefano dimera . what could go wrong ? will : what could go wrong ? sami : i wanted to talk to you alone . abigail : oh . sami : i wanted to thank you for the tutoring sessions . you have been so patient with me , and i 'm basically an art history dunce . abigail : oh , no . you 're not at all . sami : well , i feel like i 've wasted your time , because now with everything that 's happened , i - i do n't feel that a ... honeymoon in italy is in the cards . abigail : really ? sami : in fact , we 're not even sure about the wedding right now . abigail : what ? why ? sami : ej and i are getting married , of course . abigail : oh . sami : we just may have to postpone it . abigail : i 'm so sorry to hear that . sami : que sera sera , right ? whenever it does happen , i hope you 'll come , of course . you have to . you could bring that , um , bartender , you know ? that cute guy from the club . abigail : why would you say that ? sami : oh , i do n't know , i guess ... i just saw you two together ... you seemed close , and he looks at you like he 's crazy about you . abigail : that 's really nice of you to say . sami : promise me you 'll come . abigail : sure . yeah . sami : and thank you . thank you for stopping by to check on allie . you 're welcome any time . i mean , you 're like family . nicole : eric , eric , please . please stay away from him . this could get ugly . eric : it already is ugly . i do n't want to pick a fight with him . i just want to talk to him . nicole : okay , okay , just ... not right now . it 's too early . okay , i - i have an idea . why do n't you text him ? tell him that we already talked and you just need a day or two to process everything before you talk to him again . eric : maybe you 're right . marlena : well , i seem to have hit a nerve . daniel : yeah , i just , um ... i - i do n't think you have to apologize for trying to protect your son . [ cell phone rings ] daniel : oh . [ ringing ] daniel : i 'm ... i 'm sorry . we 're gon na have to finish this conversation another time . marlena : oh , oh ... daniel : is that -- marlena : of course , not a problem at all , but , truly ... thanks for listening . daniel : hey , marlena , and just hang in there . i think everything 's gon na be okay . marlena : in salem ? you got to be kidding . daniel : [ laughs ] well , maybe not . okay , so this could mean that nicole finally told eric the truth ... or she stole his phone and texted herself . what is going on over there ? nicole : thank you . i think a text was a good way to go . eric : well , now that that 's all said and done , i - i 'm gon na go for a walk . i need some fresh air . nicole : okay , all right , but ... i know this is a lot to process . and i know leaving your family on such short notice is hard for you , but please ... please do n't say anything to anyone . daniel is a mess , and jennifer would be blown away if she found out about it . eric : i still think that he needs to come clean with her . i mean , keeping secrets from people you love ... aside from being wrong , it always seems to blow up in your face . i love you . nicole : why would it blow up in my face ? that never happens to me . oh , god . you know what ? no . no , i am not giving up . if i could just keep those two away from each other long enough to get eric to elope , this just might work . all i have to do is ... convince daniel that i told eric the truth . god , daniel , i 'm so sorry to do this to you , but i ca n't lose eric ... [ crying ] not now . ej : how was the birthday party ? sami : oh . ej : sorry i could n't make it . sami : it was fine , fine , fine . fine . ej : let me guess . kate was there ? sami : [ chuckles ] and guess what . she 's back ! and he is showering her with jewels these days . as it turns out , you can buy kate 's love . ej : well , when i spoke to her earlier , she said she was n't interested in my father 's affections . sami : i just do n't believe for a second that those diamonds are innocent tokens of affection . at some point , stefano is going to want to ... take it out in trade . ej : okay . thanks . sami : too much ? ej : little bit . yeah . i would n't worry about it too much , though . kate is about to have much bigger problems on her plate . sami : what does that mean ? ej : i got a telephone call from my contact at the police station . apparently , hope has been grilling lucas for the last two hours . sami : lucas ? that 's why he did n't turn up at the birthday party . wait a second -- hope already questioned him . ej : well , she 's questioning him again . sami : ej , do you think that lucas shot nick ? hope : where 'd you get the gun ? lucas : my mother 's house , but she did n't know about it . hope : so you went to the park to kill nick . lucas : yeah . no . no . look , i , um ... he was threatening my son , okay ? he was gon na take my son 's daughter away from him , and as soon as i heard there was a court date , yeah , i lost it . hope : where 's the gun now ? lucas : i got rid of the gun . i threw it in the river before i went back to the square . [ knock at door ] hope : come in . stan : you were waiting for these , right ? hope : yeah . thanks , stan . nicole : excuse me , is dr. jonas here yet ? i know he has a shift . oh , it does n't start till later . nicole : okay . thank you . come on , daniel , pick up . pick up . [ cell phone ringing ] nicole : daniel , it 's me . can you call me as soon as you get this ? thanks . where is he ? daniel : eric , hey , uh , wait up , wait up . i got your text , and i know you said you need to sort things out , but ... i think we should talk . eric : you know what ? i do too .

[ techno music ] rafe : bourbon , neat . i 'll let you know when it 's time to stop . nicole : honestly , kate , i do n't know what you 're getting so worked up about . kate : just get dressed , nicole . nicole : look , i 'm just trying to show a little modesty here . i mean , it 's not like i 'm , say , upstairs in one of the bedrooms where i may not feel compelled to cover up . i mean , this is the living room , after all , where anyone could just waltz in . kate : deimos , i 'm back . deimos ! nicole : is he expecting you ? because he never mentioned that . kate : do you think that i do n't know what your agenda is ? because it 's as brazenly naked as you are under that robe . but it 's not gon na work . [ tense music ] shawn : come on , i 'm gon na put some coffee on for you . belle : oh , no , do n't go . no , come on , just sit right here next to me . please . i 'm feeling so embarrassed and so disappointed in myself . shawn : do n't . belle : do n't what ? shawn : come on , do n't beat yourself up , okay ? belle : oh , come on , how can i not ? i 've failed at pretty much everything . shawn : oh , no , do n't say -- do n't say that , all right ? belle : you know what ? i have an idea . let 's play a game , okay ? i 'll name a category , and then you tell me where i 've gone right . shawn : no , listen -- no , i do n't want to play that . belle : no , no , no , it 's gon na be fun . i 'll be fun . okay , we 'll start with the most important category first . motherhood . [ chuckles ] no standing ovation there , right ? right , so we should just , uh -- we 'll move on to the next category , and that would be : being a daughter . well , i guess my mom would have to chime in on that one , and she 's probably sound asleep right now . ooh , shh . so we 'll just move on to the next category , which -- ooh , it 's the big one . it 's the big one , okay ? drum roll . wifedom . i do n't think that 's a word . we should probably come up with something else for that . how 'bout , uh ... being a wife ? [ laughs ] wow , your silence speaks volumes , shawn brady . so i guess we agree that when it comes to screwing up , i check all the boxes . shawn : you know what , i 'm gon na go get the coffee , all right ? belle : no . no , no , no . no , really , wait . i need to -- i need to tell you that i 'm not , uh -- oh , god , what 's the word ? oblivious . i 'm not oblivious to when our relationship started going downhill . i know it 's when i cheated on you back in maine . and you may be oblivious to the fact that i will feel guilty about that the rest of my life . and not just because it hurt you , but because it hurt our daughter . and me . [ sobs ] how could i be so stupid ? you know , it 's the one concrete moment that i can point to and i can truly say my life has been a hot mess since then . shawn : listen to me , there is no point to any of this -- belle : there is a point . i - i need to -- i need to say this out loud so that it 'll make it go away a little . the pain , i mean . oh , god , i might be hurting you more than i already have , and i do n't want to do that , shawn . oh , god , and i 've already just hit a new low , getting drunk and making out with my one - time husband . and it would be funny if it was n't so cliché , and it would be sad if -- no , it 's just sad . it 's just really , really sad , kissing someone who does n't want anything to do with you . shawn : no . listen to me , do n't you say that . do n't ever say that . belle : [ sniffling ] hope : you should n't be here . you should n't have come back . you say you 've been through hell , but so have i . my god , so has my daughter , and she 's still going through hell . i have to figure out a way to help her . aiden : i know . i know . look , maybe now is not the best time to ask you this , but you are the most important person in my life . and i feel i deserve to know , are you in love with rafe hernandez ? [ tense music ] shawn : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry that you 're hurting . i 'm sorry that you 're feeling down on yourself . and i know -- i know , belle , that sometimes i 'm -- i 'm the cause of that . like the other night at the police station . belle : no , i had that coming . shawn : no . no , you did n't . come on , it 's not like i have n't screwed up before . i mean , come on , hell , we all have , have n't we ? and we all wish that we just -- we just had another shot . another shot to be able to go back and fix things . you know , fix things before -- before too much is lost . you know , which actually -- which reminds me , i know that this seems like a non sequitur , but i swear to you i 'll bring it around , okay ? belle : okay , trust you . shawn : so the other day , the cable guy came , and then when he left i just stood there , staring at six remotes . six . belle : mm . shawn : and i -- i mean , i still do n't know what they all do . and then i had this thought . i had this thought that would n't it be great if instead of being able to fast forward , rewind , pause and all that with our television shows , that we could do it with our real lives ? i mean , kinda like -- like , damn , how did i forget my mom 's birthday ? and , you know , you just ... [ makes rewinding noise ] rewind ! problem solved . belle : or i wish i would have been more patient with claire on the phone this morning . [ makes rewinding noise ] rewind . all 's well in the brady household . shawn : exactly ! or even better , even better . you know , you 're in the middle of a heated argument with your ex - wife , and you 're about to accuse her of being a bad mother , and you just -- you push pause . and you take some time , and you think about it . i mean , nobody really wants to cause anyone else pain . especially when there 's absolutely no truth to it . you 're the mother of my daughter . you 've given me a gift that i will always be grateful for . and so i guess that -- i guess that we 're just gon na have to accept that , like it or not , you and i will always be bonded for the rest of our lives . [ gentle music ] [ techno music ] roman : rafe , got a question for you . just how hung - over a detective am i gon na have in the morning ? look , i know i 'm about to state the obvious , but drowning your sorrows in booze might do the trick in the moment , but -- rafe : i know . i know , okay ? i got it . i 'm just about to stop . i just ca n't believe it . now hope 's got ta go through all this ? roman : i assume you mean aiden ? rafe : after everything that she has been through , the son of a bitch shows up on her doorstep with this cock - and - bull story -- now what ? they 're just supposed to pick up right where they left off ? roman : look , it 's a lot for you to handle too . so you listen to me , all right ? rafe , i know i 'm your boss , but i 'm also your friend . so if you want to vent -- rafe : i do n't want to vent ! okay , roman ? i do n't . besides , i know what this is all about . roman : what the hell are -- rafe : you know , hope 's going through a crisis right now . a crisis ! and you 're gon na turn this into some sort of complaint about department rules ? fraternization or some crap . i do n't give a damn about the rules ! okay ? i do n't ! i care about hope . and yes , we are involved . get used to it . hope : why would you ever think you deserve anything from me ? aiden : i 'm sorry , i did n't -- hope : and the answer is yes . rafe and i are involved . aiden : wow . is it serious or ... do n't answer that . of course , it is . [ sighs ] it 's a familiar position i find myself in . except last time it was bo who had your heart . now it 's rafe . but your connection to rafe , maybe it 's stronger because he 's here in the flesh . right ? he 's a great guy . probably never lied to you . maybe he would n't put himself in a horrible situation like i did , right ? i just hope he loves you the way you deserve to be loved . unconditionally . oh , yeah , i know i was a fool to think that we could just pick up where we left off , i could win you back . sorry . sorry about all the mistakes . i hope you know that . hope : aiden , wait . nicole : well , while we 're on the subject of agenda , perhaps you can share with me what yours is . kate : deimos ! nicole : would it be cynical of me to assume that your interest in deimos has very little to do with your heart going pitter - patter every time he walks into a room and more to do with your greed kicking in because deimos now controls victor 's empire ? kate : wow , i do n't need anyone 's money , nicole . nicole : no , of course . i mean , it 's obvious you 're deeply in love with deimos . even though you barely know him notwithstanding . deimos : clothes are out of the dryer , nicole . kate , hi . i thought you were going home to pack . kate : i did , and my luggage is in the car . we 're getting married . in fact , we 're flying to vegas tomorrow . nicole : well , i better get dressed . [ tense music ] kate : [ scoffs ] i warned you , did n't i ? not to play games with people , especially me . 'cause it can backfire ... explosively . like it has now . belle : your words mean a lot to me . they really help . shawn : but -- but what ? i do n't understand . belle : i just need to stop messing up our daughter 's life . you know , because she 's the one who ends up paying . i mean , you and philip have both talked to me about spoiling her and setting unrealistic expectations about stuff and -- shawn : look , belle , i would n't sell her short . she 's a great kid . but unfortunately she is a teenager . belle : she 's going to court tomorrow for vandalism . that 's on me . shawn : no , no , come on . no , that 's -- that is on us . belle : no , it 's not , but it needs to be . i ca n't do this all by myself . i need to do this with you . shawn : i mean , belle , you -- you heard my promises . you heard what i said . i do n't -- i do n't know what more i can say . belle : there 's nothing left to say . [ gentle music ] deimos : you need to get a hold of yourself , kate . you 're assuming facts that are not in evidence . there are no games being played here . kate : really ? a naked woman wearing only a robe , glasses of brandy out unfinished . oh , do you have new brand of perfume ? [ sniffs ] oh , no , no , no , that 's right , because you do n't wear perfume . you know , if a scent lingers on your clothes , it could at least be mine . you remember me , right ? your fiancée . roman : really ? rafe : yeah . roman : really ? i have never said ever that i had a problem with you and hope being involved . as a matter of fact , i made it pretty damn clear i 'm in your corner . is n't that right ? rafe : well , i 'm sorry , okay ? i 'm sorry . i -- it 's just a lot to deal with . roman : i get it , i get it . rafe : no . roman : do n't worry about it , all right ? my advice ? pick your battle . why fight me ? from what i can see , your real fight is with aiden . hope : everything 's changed . everything . it 's too late for us . and yes , i am falling in love with rafe . we 're good together . aiden : it was arrogant of me to tell you i would n't give up on us . maybe -- you know , maybe it 's the fates telling me not to split focus , you know ? son in crisis . i need to help him . yeah , i got ta help chase through this , clear his name . hope : clear him ? have you forgotten who you 're talking to ? your son is a rapist . and that 's never gon na change , no matter where you put your focus . aiden : okay , look , i did n't mean it like that , and i sounded insensitive , but , look , if the situation were reversed -- hope : but it 's not ! it 's not reversed . your son ... raped my daughter . he belongs in jail , aiden . please ... i 'm begging you , okay ? for ciara 's sake , do n't do anything to change that . please . belle : i 'm sober now . i promise . shawn : i know , i know , but ... today -- listen , today is n't tomorrow . in the cold light of day -- belle : i 'm not gon na regret anything . please , do n't go . it 's been such a long time since i felt this close to you . [ gentle music ] rafe : and hope 's head is spinning . it 's spinning . she does n't know what to think anymore . she loved the guy , and then she hated him . and now she finds out he comes back and he 's some kind of a victim just like she was . roman : and now you think aiden 's gon na take advantage of her ? rafe : mm . no , roman , i do n't think . i know . roman : then what the hell are you doing sitting here , pounding down bourbon , yelling at me ? seriously ? is this the best response you 've got to the problem ? seriously ? rafe : no . no . no , it sure as hell is n't . roman : good , good . why do n't you get some coffee in you , get the hell out of here , go make your case ? aiden : hope , you made yourself very clear on how you feel . but we 're talking about my son here , and you ca n't just ask me to abandon him . hope : i can . i just did . you were n't here , aiden . you have no idea what ciara went through . aiden : hope , i 'm trying to wrap my head around it . i am trying to understand when i saw her -- hope : when you saw her ? aiden : yeah , i 'm trying to make sense out of this , okay ? look , i care about her . i always have . hope : you care about her ? aiden : yes . hope : then you stay the hell away from her . that 's not a request . that 's an order . aiden : hope , i am not trying to hurt ciara or you , but we 're talking about my son . hope : your son ? your son ? your son is where he belongs , behind bars . ciara 's been through enough . she needs to feel safe . aiden : hope , listen to me , please . okay , i -- i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i do n't know how many more ways that i can say i am sorry . i hope you and rafe have a wonderful life . you deserve to be happy , be loved . that 's all i want for you . i know you -- you need me to back off . and i will . hope : good . then we understand each other . [ somber music ] deimos : you are coming dangerously close . kate : to what ? deimos : trust me , you do n't want to find out . kate : oh , really ? are you insinuating that i may be crossing some imaginary line ? well , let me tell you , you 've already crossed it ! deimos : really ? and how is that ? kate : you know , i may have been testing you . you were certainly testing me . but when i left here tonight , marriage was on the table , but when i come back i find out that that commitment means nothing to you ! because it took about ten seconds for nicole get her hooks into you . deimos : did it ever occur to you that maybe i was playing her ? that maybe , just maybe , i was curious to find out what she was up to ? and for your information , i do n't apologize for anything i do , so get used to it . kate : well , neither do i . and you better remember that . he 's all yours . you can kill each other for all i care .

[ tense music ] eric : no . deimos would not hurt you . nicole : you do n't know what deimos is capable of . he 's a monster . eric : no . what would the point be ? deimos -- if he wanted revenge , what would the whole point be of sending xander to canada to kidnap you ? why would n't he just do it himself ? nicole : i - i guess , but ... eric : you know what i think ? i think that he sent xander to kidnap you so he could ride in on his little horse ... and rescue you . yeah , and then you would , like , coming running in to him ... and you would be all happy , and the two of you could just live happily ever after together . nicole : you 're right . and it all makes sense . as much as i despise you ... deimos is much worse . oh , god , eric , what am i gon na do ?

[ soft music ] nicole : because when daniel died ... i was devastated . i was so empty , and not -- not just because he was my whole world . and i know this is gon na sound stupid ... but because he wanted me to be a better person like him . eric : i can understand . nicole : and after he was gone , i just ... i just got so angry . eric : at me . nicole : yes , at you , at god , at the whole world . and i just -- i did n't care anymore . i did n't care about ... being a better person . that woman who he wanted me to be ... she died with daniel . does that make sense ? eric : yeah , it makes perfect sense . then deimos , he stepped in , saying that ... he would love you just the way you were .

[ door shuts ] xander : for the record , women usually love the way i smell . nicole : oh , would you get over it ? we 've got bigger problems to worry about , which is why i wanted to see you . you have a loose end that you need to take care of . right now . gabi : the ego on you . i did n't come here for sex . stefan : oh ! gabi : oh , did i say that too loud ? [ whispering ] sex ! stefan : what the hell do you want ? gabi : stefan , i came to pay my respects to chloe . stefan : you can hardly stand to be in the same room with her . gabi : true . but parker and ari , they 're besties , and i mean , i 'm a mom , okay ? chloe just lost a child . that is just unimaginable . stefan : could n't you have just sent a card ? gabi : i have something better than that . see , i took a photo of ari with parker and holly a few weeks ago and i thought she 'd want a copy of it . stefan : i 'm sure chloe will appreciate that . gabi : how 's parker taking the news ? stefan : he 's pretty shaken up . chloe thinks the funeral will traumatize him , so he 's staying here with the nanny . gabi : well , i have an idea . why do n't i , uh , bring ari over and he can play with her until you and chloe are done at the service ? i 'm sure that he could use a friend right now . stefan : wow . you actually make it seem like you might have a heart . chloe : well , i should head to the church . maggie : um , is it okay if i get a ride with you ? chloe : of course , but ... are n't you going with victor ? maggie : apparently , he has something more important to do . chloe : uh , is everything all right with you two ? maggie : oh . we 've hit a rough patch . you know . since holly 's death , it 's kind of stirred up a lot of emotions , and ... kate is taking advantage of it . she 's putting herself right in the middle of things that do n't concern her ... like my marriage . chloe : that woman is all fangs and claws . whatever she 's up to , you need to put a stop to it . maggie : yeah . kate : maybe nicole was just making nice so xander would give her a divorce . victor : the divorce is a done deal . brady negotiated it with xander . kate : really ? so is that the reason that brady gave xander a job at titan ? victor : partly . kate : oh , my god . seriously , are you never going to tell me the full story ? victor : no . kate : all right , fine . whatever . the point is that if xander and nicole have really already worked out their divorce , it even makes less sense that she was there with him . victor : if that idiot is in bed with that whore -- so to speak -- then there is definitely something fishy going on ... and i intend to get to the bottom of it . eric : thank you . brady . i really appreciate it . okay , bye . sarah : so ? he convinced nicole to let me go to the funeral . sarah : good . i 'm glad . you deserve to say good - bye to holly .

[ intense music ] nicole : piece of cake . gabi : kate . congratulations . i heard you 're over at titan again . kate : yes . thank you . and you are team dimera , so i guess that means that we 're rivals . gabi : well , not necessarily . i mean , we 're still on the same team about bringing down stefan . kate : you know , gabi , after your big fat revenge ... scheme ... blew up in your face , i would 've thought that would 've been a learning moment for you . gabi : i 'm never gon na forgive stefan . and i 'm not gon na stop until he pays . kate : mm , well , good luck with that . gabi : kate . kate : yes ? gabi : i just want to say that i 'm sorry . you know , for the blackmail . i mean , all of it . i was just so hung up on destroying stefan 's life , i did n't really think about destroying your life , and i regret that . kate : well , i do n't think we need to dredge all of that up now , do we ? gabi : water under the bridge . kate : mm - hmm . gabi : i know that we are n't as close as we used to -- and this is probably asking a lot , but ... i was hoping we could be friends again , i mean , at least for ari 's sake . kate : how is ari ? gabi : sad . she 's confused . about holly and everything that 's happening . she 's the love of my life and the light of my life . i just hope that you could come see her . kate : well ... i would like that . is there something else ? gabi : i just -- i - i miss having my coconspirator . i miss bouncing ideas off of you . kate : you have ideas ? gabi : i do . kate : you do not make me regret this . gabi : [ sighs ] [ uplifting music ] eric : nicole , i just ... wanted to say if or whenever you need my help , i 'm here for you . nicole : eric . do n't hold your breath . eric : i 'm just trying to help . nicole : well , if you really mean that , then leave . sarah : please do n't do this . nicole : oh ! sarah : eric loved holly . nicole : look ! your girlfriend 's here to defend you . sarah : eric loves you . nicole : oh , well , unfortunately , any love i had for eric is dead and buried with my daughter . now , please , get the hell out of my face ! eric : i 'm sorry .

[ scene_break ] belle : okay , i know it sounds crazy , but dad came to me in the dream . but it was real . it was right here in this room . marlena : tell me what your father said to you . belle : he said that if claire had passed through to the other side that he would have seen her , and he did n't , which means that she 's still alive . we just have to find her . you think i 'm imagining this , do n't you ? marlena : no . no , not at all . belle : really ? marlena : belle , you are not the only person to whom your father has come in a dream , remember ? belle : you 're right . he was right about steve . so if he was right about that , then he 's right about claire . [ scene_break ] hope : you two are going to get through this . shawn d. : but claire is what brought us together , and now she 's gone . hope : you and belle are going to need each other more than ever , believe me . your dad and i did when we lost zack . shawn d. : yeah , but everything with zack was definite . you guys had closure . belle , she 's got this crazy idea that we 're gon na find claire . and i do n't know how to deal with that . [ scene_break ] bo : hey , hey . how 's belle doing ? hope : marlena 's in with her right now . oh , and by the way ... bo : what ? hope : when were you going to tell me about the gunshot wound ? bo : well , i did n't want to worry you till we got back . hope : okay , could you at least convince our son to get some medical attention ? shawn d. : come on , mom . bo : that 's not a bad idea , son . shawn d. : i 'll see a doctor when i know that belle is okay . hope : shawn , please -- shawn d. : you guys , stop asking . belle , she needs me , and i 'm not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] marlena : belle , i do n't want you getting your hopes up . belle : but you believe me , right , that claire 's still out there ? marlena : in my experience , i would have to say that it 's a possibility . remember when you called me from tinda lao and you described that italian coin ? belle : mm - hmm . sure . i had that dream about dad , and he told me that he gave it to you when you married him . marlena : when we hung up the phone , i found the coin in daddy 's hand . belle : oh , my god . marlena : i do n't know how it got there . belle : it was a miracle . dad did n't want you to give up on him , just like he does n't want me to give up on claire .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : it was -- it was just hard listening to that poor girl . it just brought back all these feelings , just awful feelings . i know what she 's going through . daniel : you were raped ? jennifer : yeah . and i just know -- i know how much work it is gon na take for her to feel like she has control over her life again . daniel : oh , no , from across the room , i could -- i could see you understood what she was going through . jennifer : no . daniel : no ? jennifer : no , i 'm not doing this . daniel : not doing what ? jennifer : you know what ? i want to play stupid pool . and i want to laugh , and i want to joke . and the last thing you need to hear is some sad history right now . daniel : well , maybe it is n't sad . maybe it 's kind of cool to see someone who 's dealt with something they never should have had to deal with and still be true to themselves . jennifer : yeah . i mean , there was a time in my life where i thought i would -- i 'd never smile again , let alone laugh . daniel : what , you ? jennifer : [ laughs ] and you know what ? this is not fair , because all rape is -- is horrible , but there is something about knowing that man , something about looking into his eyes and trusting him on some level . daniel : wait , wait , wait . you knew this man ? jennifer : yeah . it was lawrence alamain . [ scene_break ] dario : look , man , do n't be stupid . mike : you think it 's a real good idea to call me stupid ? dario : give me a couple more hours . i 'll -- i 'll get you your money . i 'll give it with a profit . and beating me up is not gon na get you anything . mike : yeah , but i 'd kind of enjoy it . dario : more than getting your money back ? just a couple hours . that 's all i 'm asking . mike : all right . dario : always a pleasure . mike : hey , if you 're messing with me , i 'm gon na do a lot more than smash your kneecaps .

[ scene_break ] daniel : yeah , i need another reason to hate him . jennifer : listen , i want to tell you something , and i want you to believe me , okay ? i just sort of got blindsided right now , but i have done everything that i have needed to do to get past this thing with lawrence alamain . so if you start treating me differently , if you start treating me so carefully , that means he 's taken something else from me . and i will not let him do that , because i really like what we have . this , like , clunky thing that we do -- i like it . daniel : this clunky thing ? jennifer : mm - hmm . daniel : yeah , well , clunky 's what i do best , really . jennifer : good . daniel : and if i get , like , over - sentimental and sappy and all that stuff , i 'll let you -- you can perform surgery on me . jennifer : really ? daniel : oh , yeah . i think . i do n't know . if you play pool like you do surgery , we may have problems . jennifer : i just want you to know it felt good to talk about this . i 'm glad that i told you . daniel : good . does carly know what he did to you ? jennifer : yeah . yeah , we are part of that special club -- women who have survived lawrence alamain . daniel : yeah . jennifer : so we 'll always be friends because of that , always . [ scene_break ] lexie : uh , listen , um , between us , this thing with daniel and jennifer ... does it bother you ? carly : no . no , no . it 's just a little , um ... lexie : a little what ? carly : a little ironic . i mean , jennifer was playing matchmaker , pushing me toward daniel and vice versa . and just when i think that maybe there 's a possibility , they 're an item . lexie : so you 're interested in daniel ? carly : no . i just found it to be ironic . could you please not say anything ? lexie : no , no . of course not .

[ scene_break ] ej : oh , i 'm gon na kill him ! stefano : you are going to calm down , now ! this is awful . this is way out of character . ej : father , we 're dealing with an idiot . this is exactly in character ! stefano : all right , listen to me . we have to play this very , very close to the vest . we have to let him lead , because we have to find out exactly what is going on .

[ scene_break ] nicole : what have i done to ej ? what kind of question is that ? taylor : well , basically , it 's a rhetorical one , since we both know what you have done . you used him . you lied to him . you manipulated him . and all the while , you were simpering about how much you love his children . god , you are everything he says you are . nicole : oh , and you buy everything he says ? taylor : i know the truth , nicole . i see what you have turned into , and it just makes me hate you for what you have done . nicole : well , right back at ya , bitch .

[ scene_break ] rafe : but if you 're not even sure you 're pregnant , why 'd you tell austin ? carrie : i did n't . he found the test . and once he did , there was no stopping him . he was so excited about having a baby . rafe : sure . carrie : rafe , i 'm so sorry that you found out the way you did . rafe : not your fault . carrie : [ sighs ] if the test comes back negative , that 's it . i 'm telling austin that our marriage is over , and i 'm leaving him . rafe : what if it comes back positive ? then what ? [ scene_break ] austin : paperwork 's all finished . daniel : uh , great , okay . um , i 'll let carrie know . austin : okay . she 's , uh -- she 's in there with rafe ? [ scene_break ] kate : well , to be honest , i 'm not surprised that i picked up on what was bothering will before you did . sami : because i 'm such a terrible mother ? kate : oh , just stop . that 's not what i 'm saying . sami : then what are you saying ? kate : on the whole , i 'm just a more sensitive person than you are . sami : [ scoffs ] sensitive ? kate , you 're about as sensitive as sandpaper . kate : you know , sami , you should really face it . you 're clueless , and you 're self - absorbed with your kids , but you 're also that way with everyone else . sami : i knew that something was bothering him . kate : yes . yes , you did . and you thought it was all about you . you thought it was about the fact that you had slept with ej . sami : it was . kate : but that 's what you were focusing on , the fact that will was angry with you , and you missed out totally that he was crying out for help . [ scene_break ] will : good to know where you stand . ej : what exactly do you mean by that ? will : i just mean that i thought i could count on you , but now i know the score . ej : okay , what is it that you know ? will : if you 're on my mom 's side , you 're not on mine . ej : sit down , please . william , i 'm not taking sides on this one . i think i have proven to you that , uh , i am somebody who you can trust . will : yeah . ej : okay , then would you please realize that i have always had your best interests at heart ? will : okay , fine . whatever . um , oh , anyway , you should be happy , right ? 'cause your dad is , like , a hero now , because he brought down some big - time arms dealer . ej : hmm . yes . something like that .

[ sighs ] a switch just got flipped and then we were done . and the night ended earlier than i expected . and kristen said that she needed to be alone , and she just needed time to just gather herself . brady : hold on , hold on . are we talking about her having second thoughts about the wedding ? jennifer : no , she did n't say anything like that , really . and you know what , brady , i think -- i think maybe it 's gratitude . i think she suddenly can not believe that this is happening in her life with you . and now the possibility of adopting a baby . brady : did she tell you about that ? jennifer : yeah . you are giving her a gift . and you 're a gift . and like i said , i just -- i do n't think she can believe that this is happening for her , that she 's falling so in love with someone and that she wants to share her life with you . brady : i did n't expect it either , jen . jennifer : exactly , and that 's the best way for it to happen sometimes is by surprise . brady : i agree . yeah . jennifer : okay . so she just needs a breath to just take it all in . brady : all right . jennifer : okay . daniel : it 's one night , man . brady : i do n't like to be apart from her . daniel : well , let me tell you something , my friend . i know the feeling . jennifer : yeah , me too . and guess what ? after tomorrow , you wo n't be . brady : ever again . john : it 's very pretty . why do n't you turn around ? kristen : i do n't want to . john : why not ? kristen : i keep hoping that if i stay here long enough , you 'll just go away . john : you think that 's gon na settle everything ? kristen : yes . john : does n't sound very convincing . kristen : get out ! john : that 's better , but is that real anger or just frus -- kristen : how dare you come here and play me . do you see what this is ? this is my wedding gown , john . i 'm supposed to put it on tomorrow and marry the man of my dreams . john : is that what he is ? kristen : i 'm supposed to start my life with somebody that actually loves me . and you stand here like it 's nothing . i mean , does n't any of this bother you ? do n't you have a twinge of guilt ? there 's nothing ? all you want -- john : is what ? go ahead and say it . kristen : i 'm not like you . i ca n't just feel nothing . john : i never said i -- kristen : what ? john : i do n't know what the hell we 're supposed to be feeling right now , kristen . kristen : but you 're here . john : and you have n't kicked me out . kristen : yet . john : is this what you 're wearing ? kristen : [ sniffles ] i told you , it 's for new beginnings , remember ? john : what about the `` right `` man ? i think you said that you were gon na wear these for the right man -- our wedding . kristen : that never happened . you took them ? john : well , i just could n't stop thinking about ... you and this necklace . perfect . kristen : is it how you pictured it ? john : not exactly . the picture in my mind , you were wearing those pearls and nothing else . a ok so i 've been having an affair of sorts nicole : well , that would suck . i mean , stink . it would stink if the bishop came here and did n't see that you were perfect for the job . eric : i know , i 'm just embarrassed . i mean , i let the little things get to me . and i know . i know , i know i shouldn't . nicole : hey , but you were burning it at both ends to make sure the school is ready . eric : this is just not me . i 'm -- i 'm pushing papers . i mean , do you have any idea that people e putting time and money into this ? do you know how much ? i mean , they 're doing god 's work . they deserve the right to see their work honored and blessed by the bishop . nicole : okay . eric : [ sighs ] nicole : and what ? you do n't matter ? you do n't think you deserve a little honor yourself ? eric : i just want to see the school up and running , that 's all . nicole : you are too good . eric : no , i 'm not . nicole : yeah , what ? because you got a little annoyed ? eric : no . among other things . nicole : mm - hmm . eric : i have faults . all right , i have a lot of them , nicole . all right , i 'm just hoping to use that , my compassion , to help other people 's weaknesses . nicole : seriously , too good . eric : what ?

gabi : yeah . chad : what 's wrong with that guy ? gabi : well , he knew that , um , i used to have feelings for you . chad : well , you do n't break up with somebody just because they used to have feelings for somebody else . it 's not like you 're popping your gum or nothing . gabi : yeah , no , popping gum is a deal breaker . chad : it 's gross . i 'm kidding . gabi : i know . i do n't know . i guess he thought that once you were free , i 'd go running back to you , and there was just no way i could prove him wrong . i do n't know . i 'm not even desperate to be in a relationship , though . chad : sure . sure . gabi : i 'm taking a break . i am . i 'm focusing on my daughter and my business . actually sounds really good for me . chad : that 's the same plan i have . thomas and dimera . gabi : okay , good . but listen , now that you , um -- you 're gon na go through this divorce , i have a question for you . it 's kind of important . deimos : are you forgetting ? i shot him ! i left him in the river to die ! nicole : yeah , that 's what you said , mm - hmm . deimos : [ scoffs ] all right , you know what ? even if i did have you and holly kidnapped , which i would never do in a million years , i certainly would n't hire him to take charge of it ! nicole : that is such bull . you two have been working together this whole time . deimos : how is that even possible ? nicole : you and xander were alone on the docks after the siege . you had xander on the ropes , and then you decided he was more use to you alive than dead , so you struck up some kind of deal , and then you sent him to canada to attack me . is that when you were gon na swoop in and rescue me ? but , oh , dear . did sonny and paul ruin your fun ? so you went to plan b , and , oh , eric got in the way . it seems like someone 's always getting in the way of you being a fake hero . deimos : wow . wow , that -- that is quite the elaborate story . but since it 's based on nothing but conjecture , no hard evidence whatsoever ... nicole : duplicity and manipulation are always unmasked . just give the cops a little time , deimos . deimos : all right , listen , nicole ! i 'm the one telling you the truth here . and believe me , i would like to kill him right now , but i do n't want to waste a second getting you and holly out of here ! nicole : well , it looks like you came all this way for nothing , because i am going back with eric . deimos : really ? really ? well , can he get you past the armed guards ? nicole : i 'm sure that 's easy for you , right ? because they 're on your payroll . deimos : i got past them because i studied the terrain . i paid a local who told me about a secret way in and out of here . and if we want to get out of here alive , we need to go that way now . eric : i heard the helicopter you arrived on . deimos : yeah , yeah . that 's right . that 's right . i have a helicopter . i have a pilot . i have armed guards just waiting for us . but we have to leave now if we want to get out of here ! nicole : right . and what about him ?

[ monitor beeping ] john : [ sighs ] oh , man . so many things i did n't say . so many things i did n't say often enough . like what a great kid you were ... and how proud i am of the man that you 've become . hey , god ... please give me the chance to say that again to him .

[ cell phone rings ] sonny : it 's jj . hey , what 's going on ? where are you ? jj : we 're on the island . both deimos and xander are in custody . sonny : great ! deimos and xander are in custody . gabi : what ? jj : i ca n't talk right now , but i 'll fill you in when i get back . sonny : i have to see this for myself . i 'm coming to the island . eli : we 're waiting . xander : i did it all . i was working by myself . hope : are you sure about that ? because i 'm thinking if you were to provide key details about exactly what happened and who you were working with , maybe , perhaps , you might be able to cut a deal with the authorities . jj : otherwise , i 'd say you 're pretty screwed . xander : i 'm not saying another word without my lawyer . nicole : you tell them the truth . you tell them you were taking orders from him ! xander : your personal issues with my uncle are your problem , not mine . eli : all right , let 's go . nicole : eric , eric . i ca n't -- i ca n't leave with them . i 've got to get out of here . eric : hope . can we go get the baby now ? hope : yeah , go . go ahead . follow them . deimos : all right , you know what ? enough of this , okay ? you heard xander . he said i had nothing to do with his plan . hope : that 's for the d.a . to decide once we get back to salem . deimos : i do n't have to go anywhere with you . i 'm a greek citizen ! hope : good , i 'm glad to hear it . greece has an extradition treaty with the u.s . deimos : all right , you know what ? this is ridiculous . i want to talk to my lawyer ! hope : you 'll get your call once we get back to salem . they 're gone ! hope : what ? i was waylaid by one of the guards . by the time i had him under control , the woman and the guy took off . [ dramatic music ] brady : uh , okay , all right . am i -- am i dreaming , or am -- or am i where you are ? daniel : no , no , no , i came to you . they let us do that every once in a while . brady : right . oh , my god , daniel , are you , uh -- are you gon na take me to the other side or something ? daniel : no , no , no , that 's , uh -- well , that 's up to you . brady : what do you mean ? daniel : i mean i only had one heart to give you , and that was supposed to be for life . but the warranty does n't cover getting shot , so you have some heavy , heavy lifting to do . brady : what are -- what are you talking about , man ? daniel : you need to show your immune system who 's boss , stop it from rejecting my heart . brady : yeah , i do n't know how to do that . daniel : well , i was a doctor , not a mystic . but all i know is , you need to be there for your son and nicole and my daughter . they need you . so you got things to do , man . brady : something i got to tell you , uh ... [ sighs ] buddy , i 'm in love with nicole . i want her to be my wife . tell me if you 're not cool with it . if you hate the idea , tell me . please . daniel : no , no , of course i do n't hate it . i do n't want nicole to spend her life alone . and i want holly to have a father . and i want you to live a long , long , happy life . brady : we were gon na be a family . so much for that `` happily ever after , `` right ? daniel : like i said , that 's up to you . jj : they ca n't have gotten far . lani : we 'll track them down . hope : running is not in their best interest . chad : hey , you actually got him . sonny : paul 's fine , by the way . did your goons tell you that they killed him ? deimos : i had nothing to do with any of this , all right ? i came here to rescue holly and nicole and to convince them to come back to salem with me . sonny : yeah , that would be you , a good samaritan . chad : and you may have gotten away with what you did to abigail , gabi , and me , but i knew you would screw up eventually . and you did . gabi : after everything that you have done to my family , you better hope that you do n't share a cell with my father . deimos : you know , i hate to break this to you , sweetie , but your father was guilty . i 'm not . gabi : wow . and just -- i wish rafe was here to see you in handcuffs . because after you set it up so that he had to arrest his own father , it would make his day to see you like this . sonny : hope , could i have a few minutes alone with my uncle , please ? hope : we 'll be right outside . [ dramatic music ] sonny : i knew -- when i got back to salem and i saw my uncle vic kicked out of the mansion , out of his company , and maggie in a wheelchair -- that i would get you . and all that crap about you being a changed man , wanting to be a part of my family ... i did n't buy it for a second . and when i saw how crazy you got when nicole took off , i knew i had a way to bring you down . and look at you -- handcuffed like the two - bit crook that you are . and you did n't just lose nicole . you lost everything . nicole : oh , sweetheart , we are gon na be together forever . hey . how are you doing ? eric : i 'll be fine . nicole : really ? eric : really . how 's holly ? nicole : well , she just had her bottle , and she fell asleep . i mean , after everything this little girl 's been through , she is one tough chickie . [ both chuckle ] eric : like her mother . how are you doing ? nicole : i do n't know . i mean , i still ca n't believe we got away from them . eric : very considerate of deimos to give us the secret way out . nicole : eric , thank you ... for helping us through all of this . but we bolted , and that ca n't make hope very happy , that she let a fugitive like me escape . eric : she 's got bigger issues , like xander and deimos . i want you to know the coast is clear . once we land in sicily , we 're gon na refuel . we 're gon na move fast , so do you know where you want to go ? nicole : oh , god , i have no idea . [ phone rings ] eric : hey , roy . yeah , we 're working on our final destination . what ? she is ? yeah , put her through . my mom got through to the plane . nicole : what does that mean ? eric : i do n't know . hey , mom . marlena : oh , thank heaven . i was afraid you would n't take my call . eric : mom , how did you get through to the plane ? marlena : that does n't matter right now . uh , honey , it 's -- it 's brady . eric : what about him ? marlena : his heart is giving out . eric : are you saying that ... marlena : i 'm afraid it 's just a matter of time . nicole : what ? what did she say ? hope : eli got approval for me to escort deimos back to the states . so we will be flying commercial . but thank you for the offer . chad : wait , so you 're just -- you 're just out -- you 're out of here just like that ? hope : mm - hmm . chad : do you have enough to actually put him away ? hope : actually , we have plenty with nicole 's testimony . deimos : i would n't gloat too much if i were you . this whole thing 's gon na get cleared up . and then i 'm gon na deal with you and your friends . sonny : do n't hold your breath waiting for any of that to happen . deimos : mm . nicole is gone . all they have now is the word of a two - bit crook and xander , who clearly stated that he was working entirely alone . i 'm not worried . hope : time for us to catch a flight . deimos : well , i sure hope we 're not flying coach . could definitely use the leg room , you know ? hope : see you back in salem . chad : bye - bye . think it 'll stick ? sonny : it has to . brady : what do you mean -- what do you mean , it 's up to me ? daniel , i 'm fading away here . daniel : and if it 's your time to go ... well , let me tell just say , it 's really not that bad . but something tells me this idea of your dying is ... is premature . brady : [ sighs ] daniel : look , i got to go . but just so you know , where i 'm going is fabulous . brady : yeah ? daniel : oh , surfing 24 - 7 , perfect break . and the sun always shines . brady : [ chuckles ] daniel : but you , my friend , you need to be here . and so what if you need a miracle to stay alive ? 'cause i can promise you , miracles ... whew , they are real . and i know my heart is strong enough to keep going . and i believe you are too .

[ mysterious music ] [ tender music ] rex : why the hell do you have holly jonas ' file ? nicole : we have to make sure that the autopsy report does n't contradict what everyone thinks -- that holly died in the explosion . so i need you to break into the hospital and change her records . xander : it 's not what you think . rex : you 're in a restricted area , and you lied to me . you do n't want to know what i think . i 'm calling security . xander : wait , wait , wait . wait , wait , wait . i ... i can explain . male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] [ tense music ] rex : all right , you got one minute . xander : i just needed to check the file , that 's all . rex : why ? xander : nicole was my wife . rex : and , according to sarah , she hates your guts . so what possible reason do you have ... to want her dead child 's file ? what , to torment her ? share with her the gory details of her daughter 's death ? xander : what kind of jerk do you think i am ? rex : i have a pretty good idea . tell you what . let 's take a good look inside this . see what you wanted to get your hands on .

[ dramatic music ] nicole : is it because you think i still hate you for blackmailing me out of town ? because i 'm really trying to put that behind me . brady , i 'm not innocent in this either . i cheated on you with your brother . [ stammers ] of course you 're -- you were angry with me and you hated me . and maybe ... maybe a part of you still does . brady : no . no , i do n't hate you at all . nicole : can we just ... forget about the past and ... and how much we hurt each other ? and focus on -- on right now ? this moment ? you and me together ?

[ cork pops ] nicole : i showed him what i needed from him , and then he got all noble . but brady felt our connection just as much as i did . and it 's only a matter of time before he gives in to what he never stopped feeling for me . xander : what exactly did you do ? limu emu & doug chloe : i do n't care what you do or who you do it with because whatever relationship we might have been heading towards is never gon na happen . stefan : no , no , you ca n't mean that . there 's something between us . you felt it , i know you did . chloe : you came here to have sex with gabi hernandez while i was mourning the death of a child that i loved ! i 'm gon na go get my son and we 're getting the hell out of here . stefan : no , chloe , please ! please . i 'm gon na make this right . please , tell me what you need . i will do anything . chloe : well , then , stay out of my life . i never want to see you again . gabi : with stefan , you know , his fatal flaw is that he wants strings . he wants a relationship . he wants a family . and i come with that . kate : oh , not that you would ever use your child , right ? gabi : of course not . i 'm just saying that i 'm the total package . kate : oh , my god . you are nothing if not confident , gabi . gabi : why should n't i be ? kate : well , i 'm just saying , what happens if you fall in love with the man that you 're trying to destroy ? gabi : love , oh ... i am so over love . no , this is about money . and it 's about power . so after i get what i want ... i 'm gon na kick stefan 's broke and broken carcass to the curb . i thought you of all people would understand that . kate : as a matter of fact , i do . brady : you know that i ca n't fire xander . his hire is the only thing standing between nicole and a prison cell . victor : this is a woman who took a wrecking ball to your life . brady : and i put her through hell . victor : sounds fair to me . brady : granddad , nicole and i are working past our differences . we 're resolving our issues . hell , she 's even forgiven me at this point . victor : what , she snaps her fingers and everybody 's friendly again ? brady : she did n't exactly snap her fingers . victor : what does that mean ? brady : after i brought her home from the funeral , she , uh , kissed me . xander : you kissed brady ? is n't that moving a skosh fast ? nicole : well , i had to make my move at some point . xander : but on the day of your daughter 's funeral , though ? nicole : excuse me , but i was vulnerable and sweet and oh - so - sad . catnip to men like brady who live for protecting the ones they love . xander : but he does n't love you . nicole : oh , shut up ! this plan is about one thing and one thing only : brady . these weak , pathetic fools have no idea what 's going on . ah , if they only knew . ha . [ laughs , snorts ] ah ! sarah : according to my mom , xander is trying to get back in victor 's good graces , and she and victor have been incredibly upset over holly 's death . i mean , maybe for once in his life , xander actually is trying to do the right thing and ... give victor closure . rex : i mean , that file would do the trick . it verifies a positive i d of the body . eric : i think i know exactly what xander 's up to . nicole : people in this town hold grudges like nobody 's business . being nicole ... [ rubber squeaking ] ... is the only way i could ever come back . xander : you 've played the part brilliantly . sometimes , i even forget that the part of nicole walker is currently being played by none other than the one and only kristen dimera . kristen : [ gasps ] [ sighs ] [ exhales noisily ]

[ scene_break ] arianna : i turned state 's evidence when i was in prison , remember ? once you turn narc , you kind of lose your old friends , so i mean ... maybe i 've seen this . maybe i have n't . hope : you say that you 're innocent , but ...

[ scene_break ] nicole : i 'm sorry . brady : for what ? nicole : i lied to you . brady : [ laughs ] nicole : old habits . brady : about what ? nicole : i said that i was happy for you and ari , and a part of me is . but a part of me ... you know i will always love you .

[ scene_break ] chloe : i tried to tell him . twice . but i could n't . carly : chloe , you know you have to . chloe : [ sighs ] look , he moved up the wedding date , and he says he loves me no matter what . carly : then you know he 'll forgive you , and you can go into your marriage with a clean conscience . chloe : my conscience is n't any of your business . carly : but mine is . i 'm sorry , i ca n't hurt daniel again by keeping another secret from him . so you have a choice . you decide how you want him to find out ... from you or from me .

[ whispering ] and they hurt you . and they let you down . arianna : wait , what -- what are you saying ? hope : i 'm saying that i know how this feels . i honestly do . you know , sometimes life gets so crazy , and the pressures of life , that you just snap . arianna : no , i - i did n't snap . hope : okay . i just want you to know that i believe ... these attacks were a cry for help . and please know that ... ari , that 's why i 'm here . to help you . [ scene_break ] ciara : maybe vivian used mommy 's makeup . bo : mm . i may have a junior detective on my hands here . that 's a ... it 's a pretty good theory . uh ... lot of people living in that house . now , i 'm sure we 'll solve that mystery soon , but let 's go on to the mystery of your mom 's treasure box . now , she said she does n't have one . did you sneak a peek at your birthday present or something ? ciara : no . she has -- [ cell phone rings ] bo : oh . sorry . hold ... that ... thought . uh - oh . ciara : what ? bo : now there 's ... there 's something wrong with your grandpa victor .

joey : hey , mom . i got your text . what 's up ? kayla : well , why do n't you tell me ? i thought you told me that your date with dr . trout 's daughter went well . joey : yeah . why ? kayla : well , because i casually brought it up to him , and he said that alyssa had a slightly different story . joey : what ? what did she say ? kayla : she said that she thought you were great but that your ex - girlfriend told her that you had knocked her up and then dumped her . joey : jade told her that ? kayla : mm - hmm . joey : when ? how ? kayla : i do n't know . but she did somehow . listen , i know that you 've been trying to distance yourself from her , and maybe you 're nervous to take too strong a stand with her because she knows how ava died . but you need to tell her that 's not okay . joey : i do n't really care . kayla : you do n't care that she bad - mouthed you to someone you were on a date with ? joey : well , i do . it 's just -- i do n't know . alyssa 's nice , just not really my type . kayla : that 's not the point , joey . joey : okay , okay , i get it . jade 's out of control . i 'll deal with it , i promise . i 'll make sure to let her know that she and i are through . tripp : i 'll have to admit , hanging with my dad was pretty cool . jade : it was a real stakeout ? tripp : yeah . he had this telephoto lens and got some shots of this creep all over some redhead who was n't his wife . jade : from a room at salem inn ? tripp : mm - hmm . right . anyway ... he 's really not such a bad guy . well , except for covering up how my mom was murdered . jade : we still do n't know all the details . but it makes sense that kayla would make steve take the rap . i mean , she 's such a control freak . she just bosses her husband and son around , and they let her do it . that 's what i do n't get . tripp : well , when i shadow her at the hospital , i 'm gon na try to figure out a way to frame her for something illegal , and then bam . i just hate the fact that i ca n't just lay it all out , you know , to her face , out in the open , but ... she 's one of those goody little two - shoes who has everyone wrapped around her little finger . behind - the - scenes manipulation is n't really my thing , but ... you got ta do what you got ta do . jade : yeah , and with her family behind her ... tripp : i mean , she 's smart . but i just got ta be smarter . jade : i love that she 'll have no idea you 're ending her career and ruining her perfect family life . she deserves to pay for what she did to your mom , tripp . tripp : mm - hmm . jade : and for screwing me over with joey . tripp : soon , jade . it 'll all happen soon . jade : and then that holier - than - thou witch will be out of our lives forever . sonny : any luck ? jj : nope . no signs of eric , nicole , or holly . lani : no access to a helicopter , so they must have gotten away by boat . chad : okay , well , have you spoken to the greek police ? jj : they 're all over this . they 've got men searching the entire island and up and down the coast . gabi : poor nicole . i mean , i -- it must have been hell to be held captive here by xander . sonny : and then deimos shows up out of the blue to rescue her . gabi : oh , my god . chad : yeah , this has his greasy little paw prints all over it . lani : well , at least his ruse was exposed . jj : yeah . and now hope is escorting him back to salem . sonny : but the case against deimos hinges on guy , right ? i mean , eli has to get him extradited to salem so he can testify that deimos was his accomplice , give the pd some physical evidence of their plot . what , you 're afraid it 's not enough ? jj : yeah , i am . we need to look for some more evidence to incriminate him . we ca n't let this guy skate again . okay , gabi , chad , i want you to start with the cupboards . we 'll take xander 's bedroom . sonny , i want you to check every drawer in this house . everyone , let 's go . chad : break . victor : is brady gone ? [ somber music ] marlena : brady is still alive . victor : is anyone with him ? marlena : oh , yes . john is with him right now . you know , i did n't expect to find you here . victor : [ sighs ] well , i was just thinking about the conversation that we had earlier ... about god forgiving us our sins . i was just contemplating my own , wondering whether or not brady was being punished for my transgressions . marlena : i do n't believe god is vindictive . victor : but i 've been vindictive . i 've done terrible things to people ... including you . marlena : and yet here we are , sitting together , very concerned for our brady . sonny : what have you got ? jj : it 's xander 's . lani : he obviously left in a rush . jj : water bottles . sneakers . magazines . lani : `` gardens of guns , `` `` busty broad monthly `` ? jj : says a lot about xander , but there 's no link in here to deimos . gabi : there 's just a bunch of , uh , fancy plates , so the person that lived here before must have had really good taste . chad : and lots of money . gabi : [ chuckles ] jj : any luck ? eli : no sign of eric and nicole yet . but interpol 's on it now too . wherever they are , we 'll find them . kayla : hey . steve : hey , baby . kayla : how 's brady ? steve : he 's holding on . john 's still in there with him . when i walked in , he was whispering to him , `` brady , we need you ... your little boy more than anyone else . do n't leave us , son . `` you must be exhausted . kayla : no , i 'm okay . steve : you 've been working around the clock . how about i get you out of here for a few hours , huh ? kayla : i might let you do that . steve : great . kayla : i just need to check on a few patients and get an update from valerie , okay ? steve : she 's been here around the clock too , has n't she ? kayla : doing everything humanly possible to keep brady alive until we find a donor heart . steve : we all have to pray that happens . kayla : if only we were n't running out of time . joey : what the hell is wrong with you ? jade : well , hello to you too . joey : i heard what you said to alyssa . jade : oh , you mean the truth ? that you knocked me up , then kicked me to the curb ? i 'd love to hear how you defended yourself . joey : i did n't get a chance . 'cause now alyssa wants nothing to do with me , thanks to you . jade : gee , sorry . joey : i had to hear what you did from my mom . jade : i 'm sure she made me out to be the bad guy . joey : do n't criticize my mom after everything she 's done for you . she helped your dad . she helped pay for your rent , for your tuition . jade : yeah , and then she ripped it all away from me . joey : [ scoffs ] she warned me about you from the start , and i did n't listen . i did n't want to accept that you 're this total nightmare , that you just -- all you want to do is make trouble . tripp : hey , you ca n't talk to her like that . joey : look , i need to talk to jade alone . tripp : should i stay ? jade : i 'll be okay . [ dramatic music ] joey : [ sighs ] you need to let me go , jade . jade : i know you think we 're through , but i ca n't just shut off my feelings for you . i still love you , and when you love someone , you do n't want to see them get hurt . joey : what are you talking about ? jade : alyssa . i only told her what i did because i know she 's not right for you . joey : how would you know that ? jade : 'cause after your date , i saw her tweeting about you , about how you were so into her , like it was some kind of joke . joey : what ? jade : check her twitter feed if you do n't believe me . and i know you . i know how much you hate when people go blabbing on social media , and i knew you 'd be really mad at alyssa for doing that . joey : yeah , i probably would have been . but it 's not your right to interfere . it 's none of your business . jade : i 'm only looking out for you . i 'm not your enemy , joey . and it really hurts when you treat me like one . joey : [ sighs ] jj : mmm , look what i found . vintage 1943 . chad : whoo ! sonny : one of deimos ' favorites . gabi : i think we should open it . i think we should drink it right now . i mean , deimos is arrested . we need to celebrate . sonny : we should , because that guy put us through holy hell , and now he 's on his way to jail , which means -- can i get a drumroll ? [ all imitating drumroll ] sonny : i 'm in position to run the kiriakis empire . [ all cheering ] sonny : yeah ! and to honor my heritage , we party greek style . chad : that 's a brilliant idea . sonny : now , let 's get some mousike ! chad : glasses . [ greek music playing ] gabi : wow , let me see that . amazing . vintage -- lani : well , he took it . gabi : yeah , i know . vintage 19 - - sonny : and when in greece -- i 'm gon na educate all of you -- to ward off evil or to signify a new beginning , we greeks have a dignified ritual : we smash plates . gabi : what ? lani : sounds like good clean fun . sonny : well , not so clean , in that one has a fair amount of sweeping to do afterwards , but since this is n't our villa , we 're not gon na sweep . gabi : sure . lani : okay . sonny : let me have one of those . chad : there you go . whoa . sonny : today ... we all have a new beginning . to life without the scum of the earth , my uncle deimos . gabi : yeah . sonny : opa ! chad : opa ! [ plate shatters ] [ all cheering ] sonny : grab one . grab one . [ plates shattering ] gabi : opa ! chad : whoo ! [ laughs ] lani : yeah ! sonny : cheers ! gabi : yes , cheers ! [ glasses clink ] victor : and the look on isabella 's face when she held her little baby boy for the first time ... i remember it vividly to this day . and brady with his blue eyes and his blond curly hair . certainly did n't take after the greek side of the family . marlena : mm . well , he had some greek influence in him . he was tough when he had to be . i remember when he was -- oh , must have been 10 or 11 , and there was a , um , championship soccer match . he was the star goalie . did n't want to let anybody down , but he was so sick . he tried to persuade us that , um -- well , that he was so hot because he 'd had a hot shower . john and i saw right through him . victor : did you let him play ? marlena : no , no , of course not . we did n't want him to get sicker . we did n't want anybody else to get sick . he put up such a good fight . i loved him for that . victor : you know , i never give you enough credit for helping raise isabella 's son . marlena : it was an honor , victor . victor : no . your love for him , your grace made him into what he is today . i 'll be forever grateful for that . eli : well , as much as i 'd like to party , i want to head back , make sure guy 's extradition is in place before we head back to salem . sonny : great , we can head back as soon as i get paul from the hospital . which reminds me , i need to call and check on brady . eli : see you guys back at the plane . chad : yeah , i - i need to get , uh -- i need to get packed before we leave . do , um -- do you still need a ride ? jj : you 're going with chad ? gabi : uh ... well , he offered to take me back , and since i 'm an uninvited guest on sonny 's jet -- jj : no , there 's plenty of room . chad : well , and -- well , since hope actually already took off , i would n't mind the company . jj : right . okay . got it . gabi : well , have a safe flight , guys . jj : you have a safe flight . gabi : i will see you later . [ soft dramatic music ] sonny : how 's brady doing ? victor : not well , sonny . sonny : i 'm so sorry . well , if he can hear you , he might like to know that deimos and xander are both in custody . victor : well , an item of good news . sonny : we raided the villa he was holding nicole and eric in . and one of the goons that were arrested said he would turn state 's evidence against them . he actually has proof that deimos was behind nicole 's kidnapping in the first place . victor : i knew that his personal agenda would come before the good of the family . well , now he 'll go back to prison where he belongs . sonny : and now with him out of the picture , titan needs a new leader . it has to be me , uncle vic . victor : all right , sonny . i 'll back your bid to become ceo of titan . sonny : you wo n't regret it . tripp : so how it 'd go ? joey : uh , i think jade finally got it , but i was pretty harsh on her . tripp : guess all the johnson men have pretty short fuses , huh ? but , you know , i 'm not sure why jade makes you so crazy . i mean , she 's definitely high- maintenance , but ... the more i get to know her and what she 's been through with her family , the more i get why she 's so messed up . joey : yeah . does make me realize how lucky i am and ... what you 've been through . tripp : yeah . and coming from where i did , it 's probably easier for me to connect to people who 've had it rough . joey : like jade . tripp : like jade . joey : still , i have to take responsibility for the way i hurt her . i have to live with the consequences of my past . tripp : we all do . steve : so , um , having tripp shadow you here at the hospital wo n't be an imposition ? kayla : no . i think it 'll be great to mentor him . it 's also great that he has such an interest in medicine . steve : yeah , it is , is n't it ? kayla : yeah . you know , i never would have guessed a few weeks ago that we would be this optimistic about tripp . steve : i would n't have either . kayla : i think it 'll be nice spending extra time with him here at the hospital , since i see so much of you in him . steve : oh , yeah ? kayla : mm - hmm . oh , definitely . he reminds me of the young steve . and since i love his dad so much ... i love the chip off the old block too . steve : who you calling old ? kayla : [ laughs ] well , not you , certainly . slip of the tongue . steve : good . can we get out of here now ? i got a surprise waiting for you . paul : what 'd you get ? sonny : spanakopita . uh , i got some grilled octopus , pistachio halvah . i figured , you know , to end our journey here in greece , i 'd get the best mezedes there is . paul : mezedes . sonny : mezedes . yeah , it 's really good . paul : sounds great , i think . sonny : hey , i 'm really sorry i was n't with you in the hospital . paul : no , no , you had more important things to do , like bringing down xander and deimos . sonny : i know . i guess i 'm only sorry that nicole and eric got away with the baby . but seeing deimos being hauled away in handcuffs was just so satisfying . paul : well , satisfying -- that 's probably an understatement , i 'm sure . sonny : yeah . and another satisfying thing is , i talked to my uncle vic , and he 's gon na support my bid to be the ceo of titan . paul : sonny , that is great . sonny : is n't it great ? i have never felt so confident in my entire life . i will put titan on the map like none of my predecessors ever could . it is time that this company and these people see what true leadership really is . what ? what 's that look ? paul : you know , it 's just ... i 'm -- i 'm happy that deimos is not gon na be able to hurt any more of our friends , but ... i mean , i do n't know how i feel about -- about your lust for power . sonny : my lust for power ? paul this is -- this is ambition . this is my drive to succeed , to prove myself to everyone . i mean , why do you have to make it sound so sinister ? paul : sonny , i do n't think that it 's sinister , and i 'm not surprised that this is what you want . it 's just , i 'm not entirely comfortable seeing how much you want it . jj : you about ready to go ? lani : yeah . sure . jj : well , you do n't look too happy . lani : i 'm okay . i just -- i could n't help noticing how unhappy you were when gabi announced she was going back to salem with chad . jj : oh . okay , come on , lani . you know the reason for that . look , i know my sister just handed chad divorce papers , but it was just a few months ago she was ready to live with him happily ever after . lani : okay , jj , you got ta let that go . jj : if letting that go means not worrying about her , that 's not gon na happen . what if abigail starts thinking straight again in the next few months and wants chad back ? lani : okay . okay . but it is not up to you to decide , jj . it is up to abigail and chad . jj : and chad and gabi . lani , look , if you thinking i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm jealous over chad and gabi possibly getting back together , i 'm not . i 'm not . so you should n't be jealous either , okay ? lani : right . jj : hey . i love being with you . you know that , do n't you ? lani : sometimes . jj : you should know that all the time . i think we 're really good together . lani : me too . jj : look , i know i do n't have a great track record , but i will do whatever it takes to treat you right . 'cause i think you 're such a great person . lani : thanks . i like you too . jj : i just think that we -- we should n't take it all too seriously , you know ? i think that we should just enjoy what we have . lani : great . let 's do that . jj : come here . gabi : you sure you want to hold on to that thing ? chad : it 's a $ 20-million amulet . what am i gon na do , just leave it as a tip for the maid ? gabi : i 'm serious , chad . chad : it 's the reason i came here . i 'm not just gon na dump it . gabi : i mean , you do n't think it 's cursed ? chad : i actually think it 's a good luck charm . we took down deimos , did n't we ? gabi : yeah , with the help of the greek police , interpol , and justin and hope 's connections -- all that . chad : right . in the meantime , we got to spend some downtime together . gabi : yeah , that was fun . we got to pal it around , and we got to see the acropolis and the plaka , the ruins in between the shops . that was incredible . chad : got held at knifepoint . i thought that was a highlight . gabi : yeah , that kind of sucked , but being away from salem -- even though i missed ari and i know you miss thomas -- i think it was good . chad : yeah . gabi : yeah , so now we , uh , go back to our regular lives . chad : right . back to reality . but before then , we get to , uh -- we get to enjoy a nice long flight , high above the clouds , eating gourmet food , watching classic movies . gabi : right , yeah , long flight above the clouds , just the two of us , good friends . chad : right . good friends . gabi : yeah . joey : jade thinks i do n't give her enough credit for caring about me . tripp : i mean , i do n't know about giving her credit . i mean , if you do n't feel the same way she does , that 's not your fault , right ? but the truth is , ever since the first day i met her , all i can see is , i mean , how crazy she is about you . joey : too crazy about me , actually . tripp : is there such a thing ? joey : yeah , of course there is . when somebody 's needy and desperate , never leaves you alone , basically stalks you . tripp : and your mom hates her too , right ? joey : i do n't hate jade . neither does my mom . we just -- we both think she has a lot of problems . tripp : maybe you should n't have been so mean to her before . you know , if -- if you know she 's got problems . joey : yeah , i guess you 're right . i was pretty hard on her . tripp : look , man , i 'm not telling you what to do , but ... i think you owe her an apology . joey : yeah . [ soft music ] tripp : the most beautiful girl in the world loves you with all her heart and you 're just gon na let her go ? joey : [ sighs ] was i a fool ? tripp : yes . your mom 's in jail , joey , and she 's never coming back . but do n't mourn her , okay ? embrace the life you can now have with jade . no one has ever been more loyal to you , even after all the crap you dragged her through . she is smart , funny , drop - dead gorgeous , and sexy as hell . she is perfect for you . joey : you 're right . jade : hi . joey : hi . jade : i - i did n't know you 'd be here . tripp , what 's going on ? tripp : just trying to knock some sense into my little brother . joey : and he did . jade , i want you to know you 're the girl of my dreams . i love you , and i always will . [ tender music ] jade : oh , hi . tripp : my little brother 's got something to say . sonny : i have never been more passionate about anything in my entire life , paul . i ca n't show a hint of weakness to my family . paul : okay , so your new leadership style , what 's the game plan when you take over ? sonny : first i have to fire everyone that deimos hired . paul : what , you 're serious ? sonny : yeah . i have to show strength , right ? paul : what about the employees that are doing fine ? sonny : anyone 's expendable . paul : even the woman who heads your internet security ? i mean , you told me a dozen times how much she impressed you . and does n't she have a mother with dementia and a son who 's in his third year at stanford ? sonny : i will give her a great referral letter . paul : and a pink slip . it is a brutal marketplace out there , sonny . sonny : so it 'll be easy to replace her . i ca n't have anyone with ties to deimos in my company . why -- why would i want those people there ? he obviously poisoned them against me . paul : yeah , maybe . but it is just so unlike you to fire people who may have no real loyalty to deimos , decent people who have worked hard for titan and whose only mistake was not to be hired by you . it is drastic . sonny : no , it 's not . it 's leadership , paul . and it 's time my family sees what that is . lani : hey , paul , are you sure you 're up for the flight ? paul : yeah , definitely . i feel fine . sonny : there 's food in the galley . you can get into it once we 're up in the air . eli : thanks . sonny : all right . and we should be clear for takeoff in about 20 minutes . lani : gabi . jj : what are you doing here ? gabi : well , i was hoping that there was still some room with you guys . jj : yeah , there 's plenty of room , but what about chad ? gabi : uh , well , it just felt a little uncomfortable , you know , the two of us just alone on a flight , so ... coffee , tea , anybody ? me ? [ sighs ] [ lock clicks ] steve : okay . easy now . kayla : you 're kind of scaring me . steve : [ laughs ] do n't be scared . kayla : okay . i do n't want to run into anything . steve : oh , i got you . come on . kayla : ah . can i open my eyes now ? steve : yes . kayla : oh . [ romantic music ] this is beautiful . steve : and you know what ? kayla : hmm ? steve : i know you 're hungry . you can order whatever you want . but first order of business is a long , hot soak in the tub . hmm ? kayla : [ laughs ] look at you . steve : yeah , huh ? kayla : you have thought of everything . steve : have i ? kayla : so extravagant , though . steve : oh , come on , baby . totally worth it for my sweetness . kayla : mm . steve : so ... [ bath salts rattling ] on , luxurious soak in the tub . let 's do it . kayla : i 'd like that . but i think i need somebody to come , uh , wash my back . steve : really ? kayla : you know anybody interested to do that ? steve : mm , maybe . kayla : [ giggles ] steve : [ laughs ] marlena : [ sighs ] valerie is with brady right now . and you can see him after his examination . victor : ah . well , maybe the news that xander and deimos have been captured will give him a little lift . marlena : really ? victor : oh , sonny called . they have solid proof that , uh , xander and deimos conspired to kidnap nicole and holly . marlena : well , i hope nicole and her baby are all right . what about eric ? victor : well , apparently he , uh , fled with the two of them . marlena : apparently ? victor : well , sonny did n't go into any detail . he just said the authorities were still looking for them . i did n't ask any questions . good riddance to the two of them . marlena : victor , i know you still hold eric responsible for daniel 's death . i would never try to tell you how to feel . but i would remind you that eric and brady are half brothers . and brady was the one who trusted eric to go and find the woman he loves . so maybe you could put your anger aside long enough to behave the way that brady would like you to . sonny : all right , we 've been cleared for takeoff . everyone buckle up . chad : hey . sonny : chad , we 're just getting ready to leave . chad : yeah , glad i made it in time . jj : what 's going on ? did something happen with deimos ? chad : no , landing gear malfunction . you guys mind if i hitch a ride ? sonny : welcome aboard . gabi : hi . chad : you okay with this ? gabi : chad , you know why i did n't want to be on the plane . i do n't think it 's a good idea for us to be on the flight alone for a long time . chad : yeah , we 're adults . we could have handled it . it 's a moot point now that my plane 's grounded . gabi : wait , so you had mechanical errors again ? chad , what if that thing really is cursed ? and now you brought it on our plane ? sonny : prepare for takeoff . everyone have a great flight . jade : i 'm listening . joey : i 'm sorry for coming down so hard on you . it 's just , my mom was being really hard on me . jade : it 's okay . joey : it 's okay to tell you how i feel but not to be a jerk about it . jade : i accept your apology . and i forgive you -- for everything . joey : okay . jade : okay . what did you say to him ? tripp : does it matter ? i mean , he apologized to you , did n't he ? jade : big whoop . it 's not like he got down on one knee or anything . tripp : give it time . i think he 's getting there . plus , i do n't think kayla 's gon na be setting him up on any more dates . then again , if this plan of mine works , she wo n't be around much longer . steve : you have to do that now ? kayla : i just want tripp to know that i 'm excited to mentor him before i get totally distracted . steve : oh , that 's good , good . kayla : yeah . okay , there . set for emergencies only . steve : well ... i 've got a three - alarm fire over here , baby . kayla : [ laughs ] i 'm sorry i have n't made much time for us lately . steve : it 's all right . we 've both been up to our necks in work , right ? kayla : well , we always have to make time for each other . never take each other for granted , right ? steve : no chance of that . kayla : no chance . chad : none of the articles interesting ? maybe there 's some on voodoo . gabi : that 's not funny . chad : what ? look , i 'm only on the plane because i want to get home to thomas . if you want , i can -- i can sit somewhere else . paul : uh , sonny does n't want to alarm everyone , but he wanted me to let you guys know that we are losing fuel . jj : the fuel is streaming out of the wing . paul : yeah , he 's gon na try and glide it in for an emergency landing . we 're just looking for a place large enough and flat enough for us to land now , okay ? chad : okay . jj : right . no , it 's fine . it 's fine . gabi : chad . [ soft music ] steve : you know , baby , i never thought this family stuff would level out for us . now stephanie 's doing well , and joe is growing up . tripp is starting to come around . i 'm feeling like the best is yet to come . kayla : i feel like that too . lucky us . huh ? steve : yeah . tripp : and kayla says yes . jade : she 's gon na mentor you ? tripp : because daddy put in a good word for me , you 'll be able to find me shadowing her at university hospital . jade : kayla is such a sucker , right ? tripp : destroying her for killing my mom is going to be a lot easier than i ever thought . victor : you know , trying to guilt me into how brady would have wanted me to act is terribly unfair , marlena . i 've had too many losses , going back to isabella and bo , last year with daniel . now if i lose my grandson ... how do i face something like that ? marlena : i think god gives us what we need . [ somber music ] heavenly father , we come to you to ask for peace and understanding . we recognize that it may be your will that you take our beloved son brady home with you . and if his place is with you , we will keep him alive in our hearts forever . please ... give us the strength to go on without him . bless him . and bless everyone who loves him so deeply . jj : come on , guys . planes are made to glide , and sonny is as good a pilot as sully sullivan . eli : well , if you 've never bothered to listen about the crash position , it 's legs together , feet on the floor , hands behind your head , and tuck . gabi : you still do n't think that thing is cursed ? sonny : i found a place to land . it 's coming up quick . it 's not perfect , so we 'll bounce hard when we land , but i can do this . here we go . brace positions , everyone . gabi : oh , my god .

[ huffs ] why are you two arguing ? kate : well ... i was just giving eric some friendly advice which he took totally the wrong way . nicole : advice about what ? kate : he asked abe to host the horton center fundraiser , and abe is totally booked . so i suggested to eric that if he had something like that that he wanted abe to do in the future that he should run it by me at least six months in advance . nicole : why would he have to run it by you ? kate : because i 'm the mayor 's new director of communications . nicole : you hired her ? oh , that was a big mistake . justin : fine . i 'll stay here . but once that exchange happens , you 're not gon na let orpheus walk , right ? steve : like i said , i have no intention of lettin ' that psycho get away . but we have to make sure that john and david come home safe . marlena : we have to go . justin : keep us posted . steve : we will . kayla : be careful . both of you . rafe : i could n't find another way in . hope : me either -- maybe we should call for backup . rafe : no . no , if orpheus thinks the cops are here , he could panic -- there 's no telling what he 'll do to david or to john . my god , i can not believe that zoey did this to us ! hope : you said earlier you were n't sure we could trust her . rafe : i know i did , okay ? obviously , it was all an act . hope : no , you know what ? we 're not gon na get any answers out here . we need to find a way inside . who are you calling ? rafe : the it guys at the station -- maybe they can figure out a way to short circuit this lock . orpheus : i 'm gon na miss our time together , john . it 's been a while since we 've been able to ... reconnect , reminisce about the old days . john : only because you 're still holding a grudge . orpheus : a grudge ? you killed my wife and left them without a mother . you shot me on that island and left me for dead , depriving them of a father as well . ha . yeah , i hold a grudge . john : mmph . those kids were better off without you anyway -- just like david 'll be . orpheus : do n't utter a word about my grandson . john : you know if you really cared about that little kid , you 'd leave him right here in salem . you know , rafe would be a hell of a lot better a father than you would ever dream of being , so come on , man , just ... do everyone a favor and just ... just ... clean suitcase it . orpheus : have n't you been paying attention , john ? i want more than money . i want the family you stole from me all those years ago . and now , finally , with david i 'll be able to have that . so that 's the plan , old friend . and it ai n't up for debate . we need to get goin ' . john : [ snickers ] so what are you gon na do ? you gon na leave your grandson here all by himself , huh ? yeah . orpheus : of course not . david will be well taken care of -- i made sure of that .

[ buzzing ] uhh -- ah -- steve : fry , you bastard . kate : okay , so i hope that you 're also free tomorrow morning , because i scheduled another press conference about orpheus . abe : well , we do n't have any updates yet . kate : i know , but maybe you will by then -- and besides that , you need to assure your constituents that they 're safe , so ... abe : well , i 'm sure that rafe and the salem pd are closing in on orpheus as we speak . kate : you know , and i 'm sure that 's wishful thinking , so i will keep my fingers crossed for you . here , this is a copy of your speech for tomorrow . take a look at it , then you can advise me if you need any changes . abe : you know ... i have to say , kate ... i 'm impressed . you 've only been on the job for a few days , and you 're already proving to be a ... real asset . kate : well , i 'm glad that you feel that way . and i 'm glad that you did n't let eric and nicole 's opinion of me cause you to rethink your decision to hire me . abe : no , no , it hasn't . although ... if we are going to continue to have a decent working relationship , i need you to stop offering your opinions about other people 's lives . think you can manage that ? kate : [ sighs ] well ... i mean , i can try ... abe , look , i am sorry that i blurted out what i did to eric , but you know , frankly , when i heard him say he was gon na marry nicole , i was shocked . i mean shocked , horrified , and ... you know , in my defense , the only thing i could think of doing is remind him of what he 's getting back into with her . abe : on the evening that he 's proposing to her ? do you actually think that you could talk him out of it by insulting nicole and him ? by suggesting that he was a fool to care for her ? kate , it is none ... of your ... business . all you did was antagonize him . my god , the man ... the man loves that woman . and her daughter . kate : okay , fine . fine . i mean , if -- i was just trying to help the poor man , but if he 's determined to marry her , then more power to him , and i will keep my mouth shut . abe : i do hope so . kate : i still say that he 's making the worst mistake of his life . nicole : okay , thank you . eric : is holly okay ?

eric : i know that this is not the first time that i 've asked you , but i 'm hoping it 's the last . nicole walker ... will you do me the honor of becoming my wife ? nicole : [ exhales ] [ laughs breathlessly ] meet jim . for jim , comfort is king . eric : you 're gon na leave me hanging , huh ? nicole : oh , no ! o - of course ! oh , my god , of course i will marry you ! oh , wow . oh , my gosh . kate : well , there 's no turning back now . that guy is doomed . nicole : [ laughs ] mmm ! eric : that 's a yes , right ? nicole : absolutely , 1,000 % yes ! oh , my gosh ! this is beautiful ! eric : it fits -- does n't that mean it 's the right size ? nicole : yes , it fits . ohh ... i ca n't believe this is ... happening . when i was trapped in that warehouse ... eric , i never dreamed that -- eric : i did . and i never stopped . my dreams have finally come true . nicole : we did it . we defied all odds , triumphed over every obstacle that life threw at us , and there 's just been so many , i ca n't even remember .. eric : do you know what i remember ? first time that i laid eyes on you ... at java cafe . nicole : a mere 20 years ago . eric : and ever since then , i 've only had eyes for you . nicole : even when i did n't deserve it . eric : do n't say that . nicole : oh , it 's -- it 's true . you are the most wonderful man i have ever met , and i 'm ... flawed ... in so many ways . but i promise you ... i will always try to be someone who is worthy of your love . eric : you already are . you 're all i ever wanted . nicole : [ whispers ] i love you . eric : [ whispers ] i love you . nicole : ohh ... hope : orpheus has your son ? zoey : yes . hope : are you sure ? zoey : yes ! he sent me a picture . he kidnapped him from my ex - husband . rafe : i 'll get your son back . i 'll get him back , but you -- you got ta let me help you . zoey : i can't . i know my father , and if i betray him again , he 's gon na make good on his promise . i tried to keep my son away from orpheus for years , and the only reason i came to salem was to help my brother ... and that 's all gone to hell . you have no idea what my father is capable of . hope : no , no , no , actually , we do . and because we 're both so familiar with orpheus 's m.o . , we know how to help you , zoey . just let rafe get david , and we 'll figure it out . zoey : i 'm sorry . i adore my nephew , but i have to think about my son . it 's -- maybe ... you two can go now , and when he gets back , i will figure out where he 's going , and i will tell you as soon as he gives my son back . rafe : you know i 'm not leaving here without david . zoey : my father can come through that door any minute , and if he finds you two here , he 's gon na kill you . rafe : like i said ... not leavin ' . zoey : please -- rafe : no , no , no . we have to work together , okay ?

[ sighs ] all right ... lexie : wow . well , you made it look so easy . oh , i feel like an idiot . [ train stops ] tek : ah , come on , you 're not an idiot . i just happen to have a way with this kind of stuff . lexie : well , i most definitely do n't . i pretty much depended on abe for all the handy work . i know , i know , i know . it sounds old - fashioned . here i can perform complicated surgery , but when it comes to putting some silly toy together , i 'm all thumbs . this past christmas , i nearly had a nervous breakdown . tek : well , i 'm sure that could n't have been easy . i mean , it was your first christmas without abe . lexie : yeah . well , it seems that this year i count everything as a first without abe . i can buy out the whole toy store , but i ca n't give my little boy the one thing that he wants most -- his daddy back . tek : lexie ... [ scene_break ] lucas : there 's someone i want you to talk to . sami : belle . belle : hey , sami . sami : what 's going on ? belle : um , you 'll see . sami : belle , who do you want me to talk to ? not that it 's going to do any good . belle : i ca n't tell you . not yet . sami : was this your idea , lucas ? do you know what this is all about ? lucas : no , no idea . i was worried about you . belle said she knew what to do . belle : trust me , sami . it 's going to be fine . sami : trust you ? why do you keep saying that , when you do n't trust me enough to actually tell me what 's going on ? john : hey , sweetheart . belle : hey , dad . john : what are you doing here , baby ? belle : mm , i just , you know , came by to see sami . i did n't know you were going to be here . how are you ? john : just , uh , hanging in there . yourself ? belle : about the same . john : well , i 'm glad that you 're here for your sister . i know that your mother would want us all to try to get through this as a family . sami : do n't use the word family in front of me , john . you 're not my father . my mother and my father are dead because of you and kate . belle : sami , stop it . not only is that ridiculous , but it 's not helping anything . dad , can i talk to you later ? i want to take sami someplace private so we can try and work this out . john : that 's a good idea . i love you . belle : love you , too . how about we go now ? sami : go where ? you know what ? never mind . anywhere is better than here . belle : come on . kate : what is going on ? lucas : i called belle to help sami . i thought maybe she could get through to her . i do n't know , she said something about a plan , she knew what to do . kate : lucas , come on . no one 's gon na get through to that girl . john : regardless , that 's very thoughtful of you , lucas . that 's a nice thing to do for sami . i know that she can be difficult sometimes . kate : difficult ? john : she is also marlena 's daughter , and i ca n't forget that . i wo n't forget that . kate : well , she 's also roman 's daughter . i know that , and i know that i promised him i would try to get along with her , but she 's just making it impossible . and what really hurts me is that she 's forcing me to break the vow that i made to my husband on our wedding day -- the same day he died . [ scene_break ] marlena : wait a minute . what do you mean , we 're trapped here ? roman : well , doc , as we said , this other salem is situated on an island , and very clearly far away from the real salem . abe : and from everything we can tell , there seems to be no way off . marlena : i do n't understand . roman : neither do we . we have no idea what the hell we 're doing here , or why any of us are here . abe : we seem to be sentenced to a term in a very familiar , very comfortable prison . roman : with all the creature comforts -- food , water , clothing , shelter . anything we could ever want or need is right here . abe : except for the people we love . roman : we have no way to communicate with the outside world . no way to get back to the real salem . marlena : everybody thinks you are dead . we 've got to find a way to let them know . abe : i would give anything if we could . it just kills me to think what lexie 's going through on her own . [ scene_break ] lexie : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . i did n't mean to fall apart on you like that . tek : nothing to be sorry for . i understand . i know how much you miss abe . lexie : it just feels like an eternity since he 's been gone . tek : look , i hope i was n't out of line dropping by like this to -- lexie : no , no . really , i 'm happy you 're here , tek . i 'm grateful . would you do me a favour ? tek : anything . lexie : theo is upstairs napping , and he really needs to wake up , or i 'll never get him to go to sleep tonight . would you mind keeping him busy while i wrap a few presents ? tek : yeah , not to worry . i 'll have him passing like a pro by the time you finish . lexie : really , thank you for everything . tek : my pleasure . lexie : well , i 'll let you know when the coast is clear , okay ? tek : all right . lexie : mom . how long have you been standing there ? [ scene_break ] celeste : long enough to see that you are making a very big mistake . john : kate , if you do n't mind my saying so , i think it might help if you would cut sami some slack . i mean , lucas has . kate : lucas is falling for sami 's manipulations . lucas : why do n't you cut us both some slack and give us a chance as a couple before you start in with your attitude ? kate : what ? a couple ? john : if you both will excuse me , i really have some phone calls i need to make . kate : lucas , what -- lucas : no , i thought i made it perfectly clear to you that i plan to have a future with sami , so just accept it . kate : a future ? lucas : yeah . kate : what on earth -- what do you mean ? what are you saying to me ? lucas : what do you think i 'm saying ? i want to have a family with sami and will . and that means someday i plan to marry her . sami : so , what , belle ? this is who you wanted me to talk to ? you thought you could come down here and have a little family counselling with mom 's ghost ? belle : no , sami , of course not . i just wanted to get you out of the blue note . [ cellular phone rings ] belle : here . well , answer it . sami : hello ? brandon ? [ scene_break ] celeste : look , i 'm sorry , darling , but this just is n't right . lexie : what is n't right ? what are you talking about ? celeste : oh , alexandra , i saw you flirting with tek just now . and i -- well , darling , i just do n't think you 're ready . you 're still mourning abraham . lexie : oh , my god , mom , i was not flirting . celeste : you know , when tek was last here , i read his cards . before you got home , that is . and i learned quite a bit about him , you see , including the fact that he is romantically interested in you . [ scene_break ] abe : theo 's birthday 's coming up , and i wo n't be there . i ca n't tell you how much i miss him and lexie . i think about them all the time . i know how much they 're suffering . roman : i feel the same way about kate . when i think of how i was taken from her on our wedding night and the pain she must be suffering , thinking i was brutally murdered ... marlena : she 's still suffering . she has n't been the same since . i feel responsible for that . roman : my god . this ca n't be happening . marlena : i stabbed you , roman . roman : no , doc . marlena : yes . roman : no . marlena : i know what i did ... and i know this story you 're telling me is n't true . the truth is that we 're all dead , we 're in purgatory , and i 'm on the way to hell . abe : oh , marlena -- marlena : it is the only thing that makes any sense , abe . i killed people . i 'm being punished for it , and i deserve that , for the people that i murdered . i deserve to be punished . i deserve it . [ scene_break ] sami : brandon , i ca n't believe it 's you . i never thought i 'd hear from you again . if you 're so worried , why do n't you come back home , back to salem ? it felt like you died when you left me , brandon , when i realized that the future that i had dreamed of for us was never going to happen . brandon , i - i hear you . i 'm listening . it 's just -- i just do n't think i can do what you 're asking me to . [ scene_break ] kate : did i hear you right ? did i just hear you say that you 're going to marry sami ? lucas : oh , yeah . kate : have you forgotten about austin ? lucas : she has changed . kate : really ? she 's changed ? did you just hear how she spoke to john and me ? she accused us of being murderers , lucas . lucas : why do you think i 'm so worried about her , huh ? she 's completely convinced that she 's lost the very last anchor in her life . she does n't know what she 's saying . she does n't mean anything . look , you of all people should understand that . kate : what i understand is grieving . i understand grieving , but i will never understand sami under any circumstances . lucas : yeah , well , you know what ? i do . i understand her . kate : oh , really ? lucas : at least i 'm beginning to . mom , deep down in that heart of hers , she 's just a poor little scared little girl who needs love and attention . kate : oh , please . she has really sucked you in , has n't she ? so now you think you 're going to save her ? well , you know what i think ? i think you just need to be needed , so you have made sami your project , because you have a total lack of purpose in your life , lucas . lucas : oh , really ? kate : no , no , no . listen to me . you 're no longer working for tony . you 're not working for that mobster anymore , and that 's -- that 's a good thing . but now you need a decent job , and you need direction , lucas , so why do n't you come and work at basic black for me , the way we talked about before ? i mean , i can send you to europe . you can run a division there . lucas : you tried that before with sami . in fact , you tried every trick in the book to keep us apart , and it 's just not going to work , you got it ? so excuse me . as far as i 'm concerned , this conversation 's over . forget it . kate : i know i promised roman that i would take care of sami , but i 'll be damned if i 'll let her marry my son . [ scene_break ] john : thanks , brady , but , no , there 's ... really nothing you can do . kid , hold on . i got another call . john black . my god . it ca n't be . doc ? [ scene_break ] roman : [ sighs ] doc , it 's no use . the phones here only make local calls . you ca n't reach anyone in salem -- not the real salem , anyway . marlena : how can that be ? this ca n't be happening . roman : come with me . i want to show you something . marlena : oh , wait , wait . where are you going ? roman : i 'm going to prove to you once and for all that everything i told you is true . [ scene_break ] alice : would you care for a cookie , darling ? they 're just fresh out of the oven . abe : no , thank you , mrs. horton . alice : oh . abe : here , let me help you with that . alice : ha ha . abe : there you are . alice : well ... thinking about lexie , are n't you , dear ? abe : you know , i wish i 'd asked marlena more about her . i worry about her and theo , how they 're accepting my death and how they 're getting along without me . alice : well ... it 's been hard for lexie , but ... she 's a strong woman . you know that . abe : yeah . yeah , yeah , she is , but the more time goes by , the more i worry . you know , for so long , i - i -- i convinced myself that we would be rescued , and it 's that one hope , that one hope that 's gotten me through . and now i see this plot , this , uh ... whatever it is , it 's so complicated , so carefully orchestrated right down to the last detail . our friends and family in salem may never know we 're alive . we may never get home . alice : now , you must n't think that way , dear . we must n't give up hope . abe : you know , lately , i 've even started to wish -- oh , god help me -- that lexie and theo would end up here , that we 'd be reunited . that 's -- that 's a horrible thing . it 's a horrible thing , i know , to wish that on anybody , a whole life as a prisoner , just cut off from anything that 's real . they do n't deserve that . and even so ... i wonder which is worse , here or -- or the pain that lexie 's going through thinking i 'm dead . alice : or is it you 're afraid that she 'll go on with her life without you ? [ scene_break ] lexie : mom , i 'm sorry , but just because you interpreted some tarot cards to mean that tek is interested in me does n't actually mean that he is . celeste : cards do n't lie , alexandra . lexie : okay , fine , fine . even if tek were interested , which he is not , i 'm not going to just start dating anyone , let alone tek . i do n't even know him . and ... more importantly ... i would feel guilty even thinking about going out with another man . it 'd be like cheating on abe . i still wear my wedding ring , mom . i - i ca n't bring myself to take it off . i know , i know i have to accept that abe really is gone and he 's not coming back . [ scene_break ] roman : so now you 've seen with your very own eyes . this is n't salem . this is n't even hell . we are on an island in the middle of an ocean . marlena : completely cut off from all the world ? roman : it appears that way , although we have n't been able to explore the whole perimeter . marlena : have you tried to escape ? roman : every which way we can . we even built a raft , but the currents were too rough , and , uh , with mrs. h. , we could n't -- could n't take a risk . marlena : then it 's true . roman , they think that you 're dead . they think that i killed you , that -- they think that i 'm dead . john , belle , sami , carrie , eric -- they 're all devastated . roman : i know . i know that . and that -- that is the hardest part , thinking about the loved ones we left behind . marlena : i 'm worried about sami the most , thinking that both of her parents are dead -- well , that could just put her right over the edge . [ scene_break ] belle : what happened ? did brandon make you feel better ? what did he say ? sami : he , um , said he was really sorry about mom , and ... he told me that i could n't let the pain overwhelm me , that i could n't let it destroy me . all that counsellor - speak . belle : but you know he 's right . sami : he also said that he was n't coming back , that i need to move on with my life . how am i supposed to do that , belle , when everyone i love ends up leaving me ? [ scene_break ] john : doc ? is it really you ? say something , doc . answer me . oh . [ beep ] john : brady , are you there ? no one . must have been the wrong number . actually , kid , i thought i just heard marlena 's voice . yeah , i know , it 's crazy . i 'm turning into sami . i 'm starting to hear things . it just -- it just does n't seem real that she 's gone . [ scene_break ] kate : lucas . lucas , will you please listen to me ? this girl is a viper . she has you under her spell , and you have to find a way to break it . you have to be strong , or believe me , you 're going to live to regret it . lucas : you 're wrong , all right ? you 're wrong . now , will wants a family , and that 's what i 'm going to give him -- a family that gets along , that talks to each other , and loves each other , 'cause that 's what he wants . now , my relationship with sami is the best it 's ever been . believe me , it 's going to keep getting better . excuse me . i got to go . kate : where ? lucas : to find sami , make sure she 's okay . kate : oh , my god . i ca n't let this happen . i have to find a way to stop it before it goes any further . [ scene_break ] sami : look , belle ... i loved austin , and he left me . i loved brandon , and he left me . i 'm not going to put myself through that again , okay ? i 'm just not going to go through that kind of pain . it 's -- it 's never going to work out for me . belle : sami . sami : no . i have to just accept it . i 'm alone now , and i 'm going to be alone forever . belle : that is not true . why would you say that ? you have me . you have your family . you have will , you have eric , your grandpa shawn , all of the bradys -- we all love you . and lucas really cares about you a lot -- i can tell . he was so worried about you when he called me . sami : i know what you 're trying to do , belle , and it is not going to work . i 'm not going to put myself through that kind of pain again . i 'm never going to be with lucas -- never , never , never . [ scene_break ] marlena : roman ... i 'm so worried about sami . you know , she took your death so hard . roman : when she thought you were the killer , she did n't -- she did n't go after you ? marlena : no , the opposite . sami never believed that i was guilty . even with a mountain of evidence piling up against me , she never thought that -- she never thought that i was capable of murder . she never lost faith in me . i wish i had some of her faith . i still feel as though i ... must have been somehow responsible . roman : but you were n't . sami was absolutely right to believe in you . i 'm proud of her . marlena : you know sami . you know how she gets when she 's been hurt or upset . she lashes out at everybody around her . she even went as far as to -- to blame john and kate for framing me for the murders . roman : ah . she and kate are still at odds ? marlena : you might say that . roman : i had asked kate to try to make an effort with sami , try to be there for her stepdaughter . marlena : that wo n't happen . sami wo n't even talk to her . sami still believes in her heart that ... you and i should always be together , we never should have separated . [ scene_break ] abe : yeah . yeah . well , you 're right , mrs. horton . i admit that , especially with lexie thinking i 'm dead , that part of me is afraid that she 's going to ... find someone else , move on without me , especially since that 's exactly what i told her to do . you know , as a police officer , there 's always that possibility , and i told lexie that she would have to be strong and find a way to go on . alice : but now ? abe : mrs. horton , what -- what if she takes my advice ? what if she finds another man , another father for theo ? [ scene_break ] lexie : i have to accept that abe ... really is gone , and unless i want to spend the rest of my life alone ... which i very well may , because i can assure you , mom , i am not ready for any other man . celeste : even tek , darling ? he is quite attractive . lexie : yes , yes , he is . he has lots of wonderful qualities . but i 'm just not in a place where i want to start dating anyone , okay ? celeste : [ gasps ] lexie : mom what -- what is it ? what 's wrong ? celeste : a very ... disturbing vibration . darling , something is wrong . something is very wrong . [ scene_break ] kate : i 'm worried about lucas . he 's going to be seriously hurt if he insists on pursuing a future with sami . john : mm , you do n't know that , kate . you know , no one can -- well , unless you 're celeste , of course -- no one can look into the future . look what happened to us . we found our soul mates , we thought we were going to live with them forever , but fate had other choices , did n't it ? what it has in store for sami and lucas is anybody 's guess . kate : [ thinking ] except i 'm not leaving it up to fate . i 'll protect my son from sami brady if it 's the last thing i do . [ scene_break ] belle : sami , why would you say never ? god , why did i think that phone call with brandon was going to actually help you ? if that ends up ruining your future with lucas , i 'm never going to forgive myself . sami : oh , belle , stop . sweetie , it 's not about you , and it 's not about brandon , either . look , the bottom line is lucas is kate 's son . there 's no way that i could ever really love him . belle : so you 're not even going to give it a chance ? sami , you 're only going to hurt yourself . sami : belle , i have made up my mind . look , here i am . standing in front of my mother 's grave , i will swear that there is never going to be a future for me and lucas . [ scene_break ] lexie : mom , please . i 'm really not sure i can take any more of your vibes . you know , i was hoping that with the killings over , with marlena dead and buried , that would be the end of your doom - and - gloom prophecies . celeste : oh , but , darling , no . this is n't about the serial killer . it 's about tek . he is a very complicated young man , and , darling , he may yet have some surprises in store for you . tek : lexie , you got to come see this . he 's throwing the football like , uh ... oh , hey , miss perrault . i did n't know you were here . celeste : hello , tek . it seems that you and my grandson are becoming fast friends , huh ? tek : he 's a great kid . you know , i love spending time with him . hope i can do it more often . lexie : i 'm sure he 'd like that . so would i . [ scene_break ] alice : again , abe , you must not think like that . you must have faith that we 'll be rescued , that we 'll return to our families . abe : i hope it happens soon ... before it 's too late . before lexie 's moved on with someone else . [ scene_break ] roman : yeah , well , uh ... i guess sami never would give up that dream she had for us . marlena : yeah . that dream is over . now it 's a nightmare , one she never could have imagined . roman : none of us could have imagined it . a living nightmare . that 's just exactly what it is . marlena : is there something you 're not telling me ? roman : doc , come on , no . marlena : you have n't said a word ab -- you must have some idea who did this , who 's behind all this madness .

[ chuckles ] is n't this comforting ? we 're dealing with a man who could take us down , and you 're groveling on the telephone with your little girlfriend . ej : just can it , all right ? i 'm not in the mood . stefano : i do n't give a damn about your mood . this man is a ticking bomb . and the more time he spends with samantha , the more time she has to figure it out . he has to be eliminated . ej : father , he just needs to be persuaded to leave town . stefano : elvis , i know that you want your little bookkeeper to think of you as sir galahad , all right ? but if we do not take this guy out , she is gon na be visiting you in jail carrying little bags of food , all right ? and samantha 's gon na have your children as much as she wants them -- forever ! [ scene_break ] chloe : you do n't seem very happy for me . maggie : chloe , when you have a friend , someone you care about and they 've been in nine or ten serious car wrecks , and they come to you all happy and excited because they just bought a brand - new sports car ... how would you react ? chloe : maggie , he 's really nice . and he makes me feel good about myself . maggie : hmm . well , maybe you should figure out a way to feel good about yourself on your own . smell that ?

[ scene_break ] ej : well , thank you , father . i really had no idea of the ramifications of anybody finding out that , uh , you had created this substitute rafe and tried to pawn him off as the real one . oh , or that the real rafe died when you imprisoned him and , you know , erased his memory . i did n't realize there would be a problem if anybody or samantha found out about it . i mean , i just -- i just thought the people , you know , the authorities would just shrug the whole thing off . stefano : hmm . sarcasm does not work . and now that your back is up against the wall , i see your real colors . all of a sudden , it 's all my doing . ej : it was all your idea ! stefano : ah , and you loved every minute of it ! stefano : look , elvis , i do n't want this to come between us . ej : me neither . stefano : so i 'll give you a choice . either we eliminate the faux hernandez , or i will make sure that taylor knows all about this . [ scene_break ] sami : i just hate feeling like he still has control over my life . [ sighs ] rafe : he does n't . sami : i know , but it feels like he does . rafe : you listen to me . i 'm gon na get ej out of your life and out of your kids ' lives for good .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : she 's -- she 's so beautiful . maggie : yes , she is . jennifer : yeah . maggie : but that 's , uh -- i think that 's the root of her problems . jennifer : hey , uh , you 'll never guess where i was last night . maggie : you said you were going out with daniel . jennifer : yes , but we ended up at victor 's . he was complaining of an ulcer . it ended up being acid reflux . but he was miserable . i mean , it was kind of sad to see , aunt maggie . maggie : jennifer -- jennifer : i mean , i would say that he was actually pining away . i was feeling sorry for victor kiriakis . maggie : enough with the performance , okay ? that smell -- it 's kasseri . jennifer : you hate kasseri . maggie : victor loves it . jennifer : [ laughs ] maggie : damn that man . he makes me so stupid . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] chad : here 's the report you wanted me to fact - check . stefano : great . put it on the desk . so ... [ clears throat ] since you had to fact - check it , you had to read it . what did you think of the report ? chad : huh ? stefano : what did you think of the report ? chad : well , the facts were factual , and the conclusions drawn were very imaginative . stefano : you know , that report was written by three ivy league mbas . chad : and they wrote down exactly what you dictated to them . and dimera enterprises comes off smelling like a flower ... a very legal flower , of course . stefano : you have an affinity for this business . chad : well , that 's good to know . well , i 'll , uh -- i 'll see you . stefano : chad , i 'm , uh ... i 'm sorry for the mix - up yesterday . chad : ah , more fiction . see , that mix - up was you trying to control my life , and , uh ... that 's just not gon na happen .

[ scene_break ] chloe : hey . quinn : ah , this is great . i 'm so glad you had some time for me . chloe : yeah , well , i 've got a lot of time these days . i only have two students . quinn : those are two lucky students . man , if i had a teacher that looked like you , i 'd sing , too . chloe : do you sing at all ? quinn : in the shower . you want to hear me ? chloe : you 're terrible . quinn : what i am is fun . and , chloe ... fun is what you need . [ scene_break ] abigail : good morning . carly : abigail , hi . i did n't see you . abigail : i just , uh -- i just wanted to ask how you were doing . carly : fine , honey . i 'm fine . abigail : maybe -- you know , i know it should probably be someone older or something , but maybe it 's a good thing that i know so that you can have someone to talk to , you know , about ... [ whispering ] about being sick . carly : the reason that the prescription is under von leuschner is because ... i 'm ill . i 'm quite ill , actually . abigail : i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . carly : oh , i - i ... abigail : listen , you do n't have to talk about it . and , uh , i wo n't bring it up again if you do n't want me to . carly : maybe that would be best . abigail : okay . like they say in the movies , your secret 's safe with me . jennifer : secret ? what secret ? [ scene_break ] stefano : you know ... [ chuckles ] i do n't mind when you push back , because after all , i really do n't want you under my thumb . chad : whoa , whoa , time - out . let 's just -- let 's just get one thing clear , okay ? i do n't push back to get your approval . i do n't need or want it . stefano : you know what i fear ? that because katherine and i are not happy with your association with abigail , you 're gon na find her more attractive . chad : wow . and i thought i liked her . turns out it 's just adolescent rebellion . i ca n't wait until i 'm mature and have meaningful relationships like you and ej have . stefano : [ chuckles ] so you do n't think my relationship with katherine is mature ? chad : oh , no . plotting to keep me from seeing abigail -- that 's the definition of maturity . stefano : let me ask a favor , all right ? if i push you too hard , or at least if you think i am pushing you too hard , and you do n't feel as if you can take it and you want to leave or something like that ... give me a heads - up , all right ? because , honestly ... i do n't want to lose you . chad : father , come on . i 'm not really gon na leave . i find you all way too fascinating . i 'm not bored ... yet . stefano : [ chuckles ] ahh . no ... there 's nothing boring about this place . ask elvis . [ scene_break ] ej : okay , i 'm sorry . i did n't realize the topic was off limits . sami : really ? maybe you can understand why i 'm not inclined to share with you about my personal -- ej : whoa , whoa , okay , samantha , maybe you can understand , all right , that my children spend a lot of time here , okay ? and your personal life directly affects them . this rapprochement with your fella is a little bit out of the blue , no ? i mean , the last you and i talked about it , you wanted nothing more to do with him . sami : i was mad . but then i realized i love him , no matter what . ej : you told me that he had a complete disregard for you and the children . sami : are you serious ? you are gon na stand there and talk to me about disregard for our children after what you did ? ej : what ? after what i did ? what are you talking about ? [ scene_break ] victor : that 'll be all , henderson . henderson : yes , sir . victor : well , what 's that ? it smells wonderful . maggie : it 's a casserole i made for you . and if you gloat one teeny little bit , i 'm gon na drop it on your foot . victor : i do not gloat . i am not like that . maggie : so , here . victor : ooh , heavy . almost feels like it might be a casserole for two . maggie : it 's all for you . i hate it . victor : so you made it for me ? that 's not gloating . that 's admiration . maggie : admiration ? victor : well , i 've been racking my brain here , trying to come up with some lame reason to come see you . maggie : an imaginative guy like you could n't come up with something ? victor : well , as a matter of fact , i did . i was out the door more than once . then i realized that it just would n't be fair to you . [ scene_break ] carly : i was just telling abigail about , uh , doctor - patient confidentiality , that it really applies to everyone who works here . abigail : right . makes sense , does n't it ? well , that 's my break . so , uh , see you guys . jennifer : did she do something wrong ? tell me . you seem worried about her . carly : no , she 's fine . she 's great . she 's a really kind person , actually . you did good . jennifer : thank you for complimenting me on my children . let 's go to lunch and talk some more . carly : i forgot our date . jennifer : what ? carly : i 'm supposed to have lunch with daniel and melanie . i 'm sorry . jennifer : you know what ? that 's okay . can we maybe have coffee ? i really need to talk to you about something . carly : absolutely . let me just finish this chart , and i 'll be right with you . [ scene_break ] jennifer : okay , chart away . well , if it is n't minnesota fats . daniel : that would be fast eddie to you . jennifer : [ giggles ] daniel : hello . jennifer : hi . daniel : this is one way to start my day . jennifer : yeah , this is good . daniel : mm - hmm . [ scene_break ] quinn : have you ever made a mistake ? chloe : oh , never . i 've led a completely mistake - free life . quinn : [ chuckles ] i was so lucky to meet you . and right from the get - go , i screwed it up . and what i would like now ... is a major do - over . i 'd like a chance to undo that first impression . chloe : well , um , i do n't think i exactly put my best foot forward either . quinn : how about this ? how about an actual date , and i get the chance to treat you like the classy lady you really are ? [ scene_break ] ej : whoa , stop , all right ? just tell me . i do n't understand , what exactly do you mean by that ? sami : oh , god , you know exactly what you -- rafe : easy , sami . easy . sami : i am not gon na rehash the past with you , ej , all right ? it is water under the bridge . the kids are back . they 're safe . it 's fine . but that ... is why rafe left . you were concerned about his behavior . i was too . he left because he did n't like the man he had become . he did n't like that he was n't in control anymore . ej : really ? sami : yes . so he told me that he went and got help . he 's taking new medication . and it has changed him . he has -- he 's the old rafe again . he 's the man i fell in love with . ej : he told you this , did he ? sami : because it 's the truth . ej : right , because he said so . sami : well , i can also tell . i mean , i can see the way he is around me . ej : i see . so you 're telling me that this translates into his being the old rafe around the kids , hmm ? you do remember what he was like before with johnny and allie ? sami : i would never do anything to jeopardize my children . ej : no . no , you would n't . no , you would not . [ scene_break ] maggie : did i not tell you just yesterday that i felt like i was the one being unfair ? victor : that was a distortion , i 'm afraid . maggie : what ? how -- how was it -- victor : maggie , you 're too kind . it prevents you from seeing things clearly , from saying what you really mean . maggie : [ scoffs ] so now you doubt my sincerity , do you ? victor : i do n't doubt your sincerity . what i doubt is my ability to ... live up to what you think you see in me . maggie : so we 're back to that . you think you do n't deserve me . victor : no , i know i do n't . so i think the best thing to do is make a nice , clean break . it 's less painful that way . good - bye , maggie . maggie : what ? wait ! i - i have something to say ! and i think that casserole earns me at least five minutes of your precious time . victor : damn it , maggie , do n't make this hard . i 'm trying to do the right thing here . maggie : well , you never have before , so why start now ? and do n't swear at me . victor : i 'm sorry . maggie : [ sighs ] this is -- and , victor , i use the word advisedly -- dumb . victor : no , it 's not . maggie : it is . victor : maggie , you could end up getting hurt . and then it would be my fault , and then i 'd feel guilty . and i do n't like to feel guilty ! maggie : oh , so here we go . it 's back to you again . victor : no , it 's not . look , you had all those years with a man who deserved your trust , your commitment . but i knew mickey . and i , madam , am no mickey horton . [ scene_break ] jennifer : do you remember boarding school ? carly : you 've been thinking a lot about that , have n't you ? jennifer : huh ? carly : daniel told me that you told him you knew about my life as katerina . jennifer : oh , yeah , right . i was just talking to him about how long we 've really known each other , and , uh ... carly : and , uh ... ? jennifer : and just , you know , it 's so great to have a friend that knew you when you were so stupid and dorky , you know ? carly : um , no , you were gorgeous . jennifer : no . carly : mm - hmm . jennifer : i did n't feel that way . i always felt completely insecure and outclassed . carly : what 's wrong ? jennifer : um ... i mean , you -- you can tell a friend feelings that you have that you do n't want to have , right ? carly : right . jennifer : i saw a picture of rebecca . and -- and i saw chloe this morning . okay , daniel , he likes these women that are , like , va - va - voom , okay ? and i am so not that . carly : [ laughs ] jennifer : carly . carly : honey , look , in boarding school , you were not stupid and dorky . but you definitely are now . jennifer : thanks . that helps . carly : listen to me . i saw his face when he saw you . and i know that man . he was n't just smiling at you . he was smiling with his eyes . he was that happy to see `` beautiful in her own way , `` va - va - voom ... you . [ scene_break ] chad : so the whole thing is kind of like a game . i mean , i believe him when he says he does n't want to run my life , but ... abigail : hmm , really ? 'cause the guy seems pretty controlling to me . chad : [ scoffs ] you know , every time i see you , i always say to myself , `` do n't talk about stefano . `` and then i do . abigail : yeah , i , uh -- i keep saying , `` keep your mouth shut when he talks about stefano . `` you might have noticed . but i do n't . chad : [ chuckles ] can i tell you something ? abigail : yeah . chad : not to make you mad or upset , but just so you know . abigail : okay . chad : see , you never met the guy i thought was my father . but until this year , my whole life -- i was the screw - up son of a brilliant lawyer . and i was a constant disappointment . we never had conversations . he gave lectures . and stefano , well ... stefano asks me what i think . and he listens . he gives me books to read . and then later , he asks me about them . he makes me feel smart . and , yeah , i know he could be playing me . but he sure as hell picked the right way to do it . [ scene_break ] sami : well , i , for one , would much rather be rolling around on the floor with my children than getting the third degree from you . ej : now , wait , samantha . i 'm not giving you the third degree . sami : actually , you are giving me the third degree . ej : no , i 'm sorry . i think i 'm justifiably concerned . you 're taking this man back into your life is nothing less than a sea change , and yet you seem ... you seem surprisingly casual about it -- glib even . sami : well , let me be clear . it was not a casual decision , just a simple one . i love him . i will always love him . and no one can ever make me change my mind . did you miss it ? or are you intentionally being obtuse ? i gave you a hint to get out . ej : okay . look , um ... can -- do you mind if i talk to him , just for a second ? sami : rafe ? ej : yes , rafe . i 'm sorry , samantha . look , if he 's going to be spending time with my children , i think i have the right to evaluate this , uh ... transformation for myself , no ? sami : as i told johnny , he 's not here , so ... ej : sure . well , um ... he may be back in your life , but i 'm fairly sure he 's not back in the police department . so when you see him , just have him give me a call . and if you do n't , my lawyer will call you . [ sighs ] something 's off . something 's off . sami : [ sighs ] man , that was challenging . i mean , it was like walking on a tightrope . i had to make sure that he believes that i believe that , you know , you 're back . rafe : i was listening . sami : [ sighs ] rafe : you did good . no , i do n't think that he 's suspicious of you at all . i mean , he 's very suspicious of me -- well , who he thinks that i am , but ... yeah , i mean , that 's good . it 's great . sami : i 'm just worried about you . i mean , if he thinks that you -- i mean , not you , but the creature is a problem , we know how the dimeras handle their problems . rafe : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] johnny : hey , rafe ! rafe : hey , johnny ! my main man ! what 's up , bud ? huh ? talk to me . tell me your story , huh ? sami : [ giggles ] johnny : so you want a beer ? rafe : a beer ? uh , it 's still morning , pal . johnny : you said it was always 5 : 00 somewhere . rafe : [ chuckles ] i did ? yeah , well , of course i did . but , uh ... i was kidding about that . johnny : no , you were n't . know what ? you 're different . [ scene_break ] chloe : i 've been thinking . quinn : dangerous . chloe : look , i 'm trying to get my act together , and you 're a pretty vivid reminder of how i fell into bed with someone that i do n't even know . quinn : okay , so we put the cart before the horse . but we can fix that . tonight is just about getting to know each other . [ cell phone ringing ] quinn : oh , sorry . i 've got to take this . chloe : no problem . quinn : yeah . look , i already told you to accept the shipment and get it on the street a.s.a.p . must i remind you , mate ... you do n't want to disappoint me . [ scene_break ] maggie : i get it now . you 're scared for yourself . victor : what ? maggie : i mean , you -- you say you do n't want me to get hurt , but that 's not it . you 're scared that you 're gon na get hurt . victor : that 's ridiculous . maggie : i 'm gon na ask you a favor . do n't invoke mickey 's name like he 's become some kind of a saint . i loved that man more than life itself , but he was just a man . he was funny . he was passionate . and he was flawed , just like you could be if -- victor : what ? maggie : if you manned up . so when you want to have some fun , you call me . bye- bye . victor : why , you little ... [ door closes ] victor : i am not scared ! [ scene_break ] chad : i should n't have said that . abigail : you know , when i was little , i knew that i had ... the most fun father in the whole world . he would -- he would play games with us whenever we wanted , and -- and he would read to jj and me and answer any and all of our questions . chad : yeah ? abigail : when i was in high school , i ... i wrote this paper on the napoleonic code and got an `` a `` on it . i showed it to him . you know , i thought he 'd be proud 'cause deveraux and french history . he said , `` good work , `` and kept watching tv . my mom was -- my mom was really proud , and she , uh -- she asked me questions about it . but when i answered them , i noticed that he kind of just drifted away from the room . i think that ... i stopped being interesting to him when i stopped being a little girl . so i get what you 're saying about stefano . i really get it . [ scene_break ] rafe : so , yeah , you 're right . i was doing some stuff that i should n't have been doing . but i 'm not gon na be like that anymore , okay ? i promise . never again . johnny : no more ice cream ? rafe : well , sometimes ... just not all the time , okay ? we 'll still have it every once in a while . hey , baby girl . oh , come here . come sit with us . come here , come here , come here . oh , my gosh , i missed you . i missed you . johnny : daddy said you were going away and not coming back . rafe : oh , he did , did he ? well , guess what . i hate to break it to you , but daddy was wrong . i am back , and i am never leaving again ... never , ever , ever , ever , ever ! [ scene_break ] stefano : [ muttering softly ] ah , did you talk to him ? ej : he was n't there . i talked to samantha . i tried to get her to tell me what 's going on , but ... stefano : and did she ? ej : honestly , i do n't know . [ scene_break ] carly : oh , god , that 's all i need . right , manning , just make your life more complicated than it already is . that 's perfect . [ scene_break ] jennifer : [ scoffs ] come on , jennifer . really , who do you think you 're kidding ? [ scene_break ] abigail : you know what i think ? i think that we spend way too much time talking about our families . chad : i think maybe you 're right . abigail : yeah . so ... what do you want to talk about ? chad : well , there is something i 've been thinking about . but it does n't really have anything to do with talking . abigail : oh , yeah ? chad : yea abigail : what 's that ? [ scene_break ] ej : so according to samantha , she believes that rafe is a completely changed man . he 's turned over a new leaf . i quote- she said , `` he is the man i fell in love with . `` stefano : hmm . we both know that 's not true . but what we do not know is why 's that idiot came back . i mean , he emptied the entire account . he 's a millionaire , and he comes back to salem ? ej : well , she has no money . there 's nothing really to be gained . he has a lot to lose . so why does he come back ? stefano : i know why .

[ clears throat ] you have my information , mr. kiriakis , and the job opening sounds very interesting . i also like your ideas on how to promote your artists , but , uh ... all i 'm looking for is a job . philip : i 'm -- i 'm sorry if you misunderstood my intentions . callie : i 'm hoping i did n't . belle : that 's your idea of lunch ? philip : tomato juice ? celery ? straw ? that 's a lot of basic food groups there . belle : [ laughing ] what about the preservative ? philip : i 'm in the music business now ; i have to project a certain image . belle : cut the crap . i can tell something 's bothering you . what is it ? philip : i 'm busy ; there 's a lot on my plate right now . belle : mm . should i be worried about that ? philip : no . but i got a lot to do , so ... [ sighs ] why do n't you say whatever it is you wan na say and let me get to it ? ciara : i 'm not staying away from theo . i just texted him . claire : right , but you did n't say that you had an appointment . you told him that you wanted to be alone . ciara : that 's before i knew i was going . claire : but , uh ... ciara , just tell him that it was about chase , and he 'll understand . but it was n't about chase . was it ? you just really do n't wan na see theo . ciara : look , everyone knows how much i like theo . it 's -- it 's just ... claire : just that he 's not exciting enough . ciara : i wish it were that simple . claire : okay , so it 's complicated . just talk to me , tell me why . i mean , what do you really want , ciara ? ciara : i do n't know what i want , okay ? i just know that i ... do n't wan na hurt him . claire : okay , then you should tell him how you feel , before you do hurt him . badly . rafe : look , i get that you 'll do anything to protect ciara , but talking to aiden like that about how much the guy loves you ? hope : i do n't know any other way of getting through to him . rafe : well , did you ? hope : i do n't know . rafe : 'cause i think that the guy 's playing you and the situation . sorry , that ... was out of line . hope : no . i know you do n't trust him . rafe : no , i do n't trust him . of course i do n't trust him . he worked for clyde weston and stefano dimera . hope : well , i do n't trust him either -- rafe , my daughter is hanging on by a thread . if chase is set free , that thread snaps . just like that . so yes , i used the fact that aiden loves me . do i like it ? no . i do n't . what choice do i have , though ? rafe : stefano dimera was a lot of things , but one thing he was n't was stupid . he sized up aiden . he saw something in him . he saw he was weak , corrupt , amoral , and i do n't think a few months in a cage changed that . aiden : it 's ready for me ? great . i 'll be there as soon as i can . belle : well , sorry to interrupt your , uh , lunch . philip : okay , belle , do n't go . i 'm sorry i acted like a jerk . tell me what happened with claire . i left you a message . belle : i know . i got it . uh , she 's fine . luckily , the judge was pretty lenient . philip : that 's great . i 'm glad things seem to be working out for you ... and that you and shawn are moving in the right direction . belle : what ? what made you say that ? philip : i know you . i know when you 're happy , and you are . and i know it has nothing to do with me . so my feeling is that you took my advice to see if there was still life in your relationship with shawn . belle : `` life in my relationship with shawn . `` you know , when you talk like that , i know you 're making fun of me . philip : it does n't matter how i phrase it . i 'm right about you and shawn , are n't i ? belle : let 's just say i ... i always take your advice . philip : you know , do n't you , that i really do want you to be happy ? belle : i do know that . thank you . ciara : yeah , and when they let chase out on bail ... i ran into him . i thought i was getting stronger . but , just like that , it felt like he was on top of me . and i was just helpless . marlena : that 's a terrible feeling . ciara : i 'm always mad at my mom , at my friends , at everyone . i feel like if i stop being mad , that i 'm just gon na start crying and i 'm not gon na be able to stop . marlena : go on . ciara : i do n't think i can handle it , when they let chase out . marlena : first of all , it 's not when they let him out . it 's if they let him out . and i 'm not sure that his father can do anything about that sentencing . but , ciara , if he gets out , what are you afraid of ? are you afraid that he 'll hurt you again ? ciara : no . that i 'll hurt him . marlena : could you do that ? ciara : i do n't think anyone knows how angry i am . and not just at chase . at myself . because i knew that he had a dark side , and i liked it . which makes me think that i probably do too , which is why i ca n't be with anyone like theo . maybe i can never get serious with any normal guy . hope : rafe , i 'm not naive . hey . i agree with everything that you 're saying . rafe : yeah , i know you do . i know . i just hate that you have to deal with the guy after everything that he put you through . hope : i hate it too . but , like i said , what choice do i have ? hey , lighten up . are you hungry ? rafe : why ? hope : larry ? thank you . i ordered lunch for us . two double cheeseburgers and french fries . rafe : well , it would be a shame to let them go to waste . hope : mm - hmm , it would . uh , under one condition . we stop talking about aiden . rafe : that 's bribery . hope : mm - hmm . rafe : but it worked . what ? theo : hi . claire : theo , hi . theo : uh , where 'd ciara go ? claire : uh , she did n't say . she just told me it was important . you came here to get some answers from her , did n't you ? theo : yeah . i - i do not get her . i do n't get her . today she does n't wan na see me . tomorrow she could text me and say , `` hey , let 's hang out . `` claire : that 's how it 's been going ? theo : yeah . i mean , once she let me spend the whole night with her . claire : excuse me ? theo : we fell asleep in her bed . claire : her bed ? theo : nothing happened . you know , but ... i was just so happy , and then she started acting weird again . claire : yeah . it 's because of what chase did . theo : i know , but i do n't think it 's just because of that . claire : i mean ... maybe she feels like she just needs to ... take care of herself right now . you know ? try not to get your feelings hurt ... theo : if what ? claire : if all ciara wants to be right now is just friends . ciara : i feel like if i was older , i could 've stopped him . and older guy would n't have been so desperate . marlena : and then you would 've felt safer ? ciara : yeah , and feel like i could talk about what happened to me without him freaking out . i mean , not that i 'm looking to get involved with anyone right now . marlena : but you will , eventually . ciara : i guess i will . but the strange thing is that ... even after everything that 's happened with chase , i just ... i can only picture myself being with someone that 's unpredictable . marlena : unpredictable ? you mean , like your father ? ciara : is that creepy ? marlena : no , no , not at all . bo brady had a deep appreciation for strong women . and yet , he lived his own life . he was such a wonderful man . ciara : yeah , but now he 's gone . maybe that 's what scares me . that i 'll find someone that i love , and then i 'll lose him . belle : oh . i 'm sorry . i did n't know you had company . marlena : it 's all right . i think we made a very good beginning . ciara : thank you for everything . it 's nice seeing you , belle . belle : you too . was that a session ? marlena : well , yes , it was . belle : sorry , if i would 've known , i would 've ... marlena : no , no . it 's okay . belle : [ sighing ] well , the kids got off with a light sentence . marlena : ciara told me . belle : yeah . community service , thank god . marlena : i think the judge realized they 're good kids that did something really stupid . belle : yeah . well , shawn and i have really been trying to impress upon her that she ca n't do anything this stupid again . i do n't know if it ... sunk in . marlena : why do you say that ? belle : i do n't know . she has this idea in her head that nothing can touch her . it 's just like , she thinks she can get away with anything . marlena : i do n't know what motivated her to get involved in that . maybe she was trying to punish the kids that hurt her friends . belle : that 's what she said . marlena : well ... her life 's been torn apart lately . belle : you mean because i had an affair , brought her here , and divorced her father ? marlena : that 's what i mean . rafe : when was the last time you had a burger for lunch ? hope : i have burgers for lunch all the time . rafe : oh , all the time , huh ? if by , `` all the time , `` you mean , `` never . `` [ laughter ] hope : okay . i was trying to make it up to you . rafe : oh , yeah ? why is that ? hope : for things ... getting so complicated between us . with aiden showing up . rafe : no . it 's not your fault he came back . hope : no , it 's not . but i still have to deal with him . i know it 's not easy for you . i just ... i want you to know how much i care . [ steps approaching ] aiden : i hope i 'm not interrupting . [ pop music playing ] another drink ? philip : why not ? bad day ? philip : yeah . but it just got a whole lot better . belle : well , it 's funny you should bring up my divorce , because i 've been giving that a lot of thought . marlena : have you ? and what does that mean ? [ cell phone beeps ] marlena : oh . sorry . [ sighs ] i got to return this . hold that thought . hold the thought , okay ? belle : it 's fine . go . hey . did i reach you at a bad time ? shawn : no . how you doing ? belle : oh , i 'm -- i 'm fine . i , uh ... was thinking maybe we could have dinner . shawn : that 's great . yeah , i ... do you want me to pick you up around 7 : 00 ? all right , see you then . lani : sounds like you have other plans tonight . shawn : i was ... just coming to find you . lani : here i am . shawn : well , i 'm ... i 'm grabbing dinner with belle tonight . lani : so should i assume that this means you and belle are gon na give the marriage another try ? shawn : i do n't -- i mean , i do n't know . i do n't know exactly what it means . lani : but that 's what you want it to mean , right ? shawn : okay , i 'm just trying to be up front with you . lani : no worries . i did n't take us seriously . we had fun for a while . i hope everything works out for you . shawn : you 're being awfully decent about this . lani : well , what other way is there to be ? ciara : hi . theo : hey . um , i just -- i came to see thomas . claire : how 'd your appointment go ? ciara : it was good . thanks for covering for me . claire : okay , well , now that you 're back , i think i 'll head out , unless you want me to stay and watch thomas for a while , so you and theo can talk . ciara : did he wake up ? claire : no , do you want me to go check on him ? ciara : yeah , if you would . thanks . theo : so , uh ... you think i came to see you , right ? you think i 'm being too pushy ? ciara : no . i actually think i 've been ... kind of a bitch to you . theo : no , that 's -- ciara : yes . yes . theo , the thing is ... look , i know ... i know how you feel about me . and i just ... i do n't think i 'm ready for that right now . i hope you understand . look , you -- you and i have been best friends forever . you -- hey , you were the first friend i ever made . theo : yeah . so we 're just friends now ? ciara : theo , you 're just not what i 'm looking for . theo : [ sighs ] you do n't even know what you 're looking for . claire : uh ... i just came to tell you that thomas is still sleeping , so i 'll take off . theo : no , you do n't have to go . you do n't have to go . ciara : man ... claire : did you talk to him ? ciara : yeah . you said i should . claire : i know . i know , yeah , and i get why you 're doing what you 're doing . just know that you 're breaking his heart . hope : what do you want ? aiden : i was just thinking about our conversation , and , look , the last thing i want to do is add to what you and ciara are already dealing with . and i thought maybe you and i could talk about it over lunch . rafe : we just ate . aiden : i see that now . okay , uh , sorry for interrupting . rafe : you know what that was all about , do n't you ? that was him letting you know that he is not giving up on you .

[ somber music ] hope : you 'll be processed as soon as guy 's statement comes in . deimos : if it comes in . hope : he 's already told the authorities you were working with xander . deimos : a man with a grudge will say anything . hope : and you would know all about that , would n't you ? so ... are you saying it was just a coincidence ... that you happened to show up in the right place at the right time to save nicole and her baby ? deimos : why would that be so hard to believe ? when i want something to happen , i do whatever it takes to make it happen . just like i did for you when you were in prison . you may not have survived , had it not been for my protection . now , given that fact , could be a little nicer .

[ exhales deeply ] nicole : thank you . brady : you know , i 'm not the only one that you need to worry about here . nicole : what are you talking about ? brady : oh , not `` what . `` `` who . `` mia . will : so i 'm pretty sure that 'll be on the test . but that 's okay . i - i like all that heredity stuff . you know , like , if a couple has a baby , you could figure out what color eyes the baby would have . i mean , what color eyes it would n't have . mia : will -- will : but , you know , there 's more to it than that . like i always tell my mom , she needs to get grace 's medical files , because , i mean , adopted babies -- they have a right to their history , right ? mia : i do n't know . [ cellphone ringing ] oh . uh , i should probably get that . it 's my cousin . will : all right . you -- you want more coffee ? mia : no , thank you . hey . will : oh . hey , kinsey . kinsey : will . what 's up ? you 're still hanging with the druggie , huh ? you two an item now ? victor : caroline was here this morning , looking for stephanie . philip : she does n't know ? victor : no . i guess bo decided to keep it a secret for now . philip : he has to keep quiet . whoever has steph ca n't know that we 're -- that we 're looking for him . victor : if he knew that ... philip : he 'd kill her ... and run . and we ca n't let that happen , dad . owen : i 'm trying to help you . ca n't you understand that ? stephanie : you put me back in there and i 'll die . owen : all right . but just let me think . let me just think . i really do n't think it 's such a good idea . owen : shh ! shh ! quiet . quiet . you say one word -- one word -- and i will kill anyone who comes here to try to help you . do you understand that ? stephanie : [ shrieks ] owen : shh ! come on . i 'm afraid this might be very upsetting . melanie : oh , oh , do n't worry about it . i 'm tough . um , i know you think it 's probably weird that i want to see it , but , you know , grandma said she wants the blouse turned inside out . it 's weird to see the other side of the business , right ? well , we have nothing to hide . melanie : you know , it 's funny . in the small town where i grew up , we had two funeral homes and they were family based . um , dimoni and sons . do n't you work with your son ? you and i have a lot to talk about . i 'm not sure this is the place to do it , hmm ? melanie : yeah , no , that 's fine . i just -- uh ... melanie : i bet it 's valuable . it 's got to be , right ? stephanie 's a pretty classy chick . she 's probably freaking out , looking for it right now . but ... melanie : it 's -- it 's cold in here , is n't it ? owen : stephanie , please . please . please . sami : that is so awesome . i 'm so excited . that is great . so , when do you start ? rafe : right away . sami : see , grandma , daddy and uncle bo would not let him join the force if he was n't a great guy . caroline : congratulations , rafe . rafe : uh , i 'm not joining the force . sami : you 're going back to the fbi ? rafe : uh , no . construction job . sami : construction ? rafe : yeah , but in a few months , i can take the crane operator 's test and -- okay , i can see you 're disappointed ... just like your grandmother . brady : i ran into mia at an a.a. meeting . nicole : she 's an addict ? brady : no . not that i would tell you if she really were . she 's been telling people that she went to rehab to account for the time she was waiting to have the baby . nicole : oh . pretty plausible cover story . brady : there 's nothing you like better than a good lie , right ? anyway , she , unlike you , nicole , is tired of the lie . she does n't want to keep stringing people along . there 's one kid in particular -- a kid she really likes a lot . nicole : mm . so , what , a teenage kid finds out she had a baby ? wow . that 's not the end of the world . brady : the teenage kid is will . we all know that a boy 's best friend is his mother . will : yeah , you 're right . i mean , who would want to hang out with a druggie when there 's this really mean , skinny girl with a big zit on her forehead ? kinsey : no . no , no , no , no , no , no . will : [ chuckles ] gotcha . kinsey : that was -- will : what ? mean ? yeah . well , maybe you 'll think twice next time before you start dissing mia . she had a problem . so what ? she 's dealing with it . and i think the way that she 's honest about everything -- it 's really cool . stephanie : damn it , philip , i love you ! i want to marry you ! why is n't that enough ? ! do you want me to lie and pretend like everything you do is perfect , like i am happy about everything that 's going on right now ? ! why would i do that when you know it 's not true ? philip : well , then maybe you should n't marry me . stephanie : you 're right . maybe i should n't . good night . owen : shh ! what 's wrong ? melanie : uh , it 's cold in here .

caroline : no . i did n't put the last names together , so -- well , you work at the brady pub , sooner or later you become family . sami : that 's right . one , big , happy ... family . rafe : you and mrs. brady should have a long conversation 'cause , you know , she 's not too thrilled about me adopting grace , either . caroline : well , i did n't say that , and do n't call me `` mrs. brady . `` you 're worried , too ? arianna : uh , rafe made it very clear that it was none of my business , so ... caroline : well , that concept does n't really fly with me . sami : [ chuckles ] tell me about it . arianna : it 's just a huge commitment , and it seemed a little impulsive . rafe : whereas biological parents always think things out so carefully -- always such a rational , considered decision . caroline : you can tell they 're siblings . arianna : it 's just that things can go wrong , rafe . rafe : i know . sami : you know what , arianna ? i 've seen rafe in action when things go wrong ... and that 's exactly why i said yes when he wanted to adopt grace . owen : dad , listen . um , i just want to say thank you for covering for me with that girl . do n't you think you should tell me what 's going on here ? owen : no . no . i 'm worried about you , son . owen : it 's all right . i 've got it all under control ... now . i promise . philip : just because you found her earring in there does n't mean that she 's still there . melanie : well , she was at some point . philip : right . right . but he could have taken her someplace else , okay ? and even if the cops arrest him , he could clam up , and we 'll never find her -- not alive . kinsey : so , your girlfriend took off . was she getting a little jumpy ? will : what is your problem ? why do n't you just leave me alone ?

kinsey : [ sighs ] she came back from rehab , and she still did drugs , and she stole from me . will , it turns out i did n't know her at all . do you really think you know mia ? will : everything i need to know . mia : you know what ?

will 's mother loves grace so much that she 's willing to let that guy -- the one who protected her -- adopt grace . nicole : what ? mia : yeah . she wants to make sure her daughter is always taken care of , and i think that makes her a really , really nice person . sami : so far , we 're batting 1,000 , huh ? everyone we tell about the adoption thinks it 's a really bad idea . rafe : you know what ? just do not worry about arianna , seriously . she 's just looking out for my best interest . sami : i get it . she thinks i 'm trying to tie you down . rafe : and your grandmother 's worried that i ca n't take care of you . sami : she 's wrong . rafe : well , so is arianna . i think the only one who 's tying me down is this one . sami : it 's just the three of us . we 're the only ones who think this is a good decision . rafe : you think grace thinks it 's a good decision ? sami : are you kidding ? of course she does . it 's us against the world . rafe : you know what ? we 're gon na win . melanie : uh , maybe the cops will give him immunity for telling them where stephanie is . philip : and let him go free ? melanie : yeah . you know , they do it on tv all the time . besides , your war is n't with owen . it 's with the dimeras . philip : melanie , if he 's in this deep , the dimeras will kill him if they know that he betrayed them . melanie : all right . so no matter what , he 's not gon na talk to the cops . then it 's up to us . philip : we just need to get a closer look at that room . melanie : well , i told him i 'd be right back . philip : do you really think they 're gon na let you alone down there ? do you think i could break into the morgue ? melanie : i do n't think you have to break in . [ chuckling ] philip : what , is this funny ? melanie : this is not funny . it 's like the old joke -- `` people are dying to get in there . `` owen : sorry . i hope this does n't hurt . stephanie : if you were sorry , you 'd let me go . owen : well , i ca n't do that now -- now that your friend was here . do n't you see that i ca n't do that ? stephanie : what friend ? what are you talking about ? owen : oh , do n't even try it . i recognized her voice . she was here to find you . stephanie : she 's gone . she does n't suspect anything . owen : yeah , well , i 'm gon na have to make sure of that now . mia : you know what , nicole ? you 're gon na stay away from me or you 're gon na be sorry . sami : maybe this adoption is n't such a good idea . brady : what the hell are you two doing ? stephanie : she 's in love with philip , and more than anything in the world , she wants me out of the way .

hope : i thought we were friends . rafe : oh , come on , hope , we are . hope : then why are you lying to me ? rafe : stop it . hope : no , rafe , why are you lying to me instead of telling me the truth , that you 're really looking for thompson so he can help you out with something that you 're starting to dig into ? and why do i have a feeling it has to do with clyde weston ? rafe : hope , i -- hope : and you can skip the part where you say we 've already been over this . do not discuss it with me , because , rafe , i am not dropping this ... not by a long shot . as stubborn as you are , i 'm even more stubborn , and you know that . so tell me ... was thompson any help at all ? rafe : he was n't here . hope : good . then this stays between you and me . clyde : ben was so proud to show me his new driver 's license . he said it was worth the wait to be a weston again . i never thought i 'd hear those words come out of my boy 's mouth . [ chuckles ] i owe you a debt of gratitude . aiden : well , glad i could help . clyde : and to show my thanks ...

[ knock at door ] xander : serena ? serena : what the hell are you up to ? xander : i have no idea what you 're talking about . serena : of course you do . i saw your little friend navidad in the square . you brought her here to salem to do a job for you , did n't you ? why do i have a bad feeling about this ? melanie : i know you and brady need to work out visitation and custody for tate , but that 's for you two to deal with . i 'm staying out of it . theresa : thanks . but i do n't really see that happening . melanie , you 're part of brady 's life now , and you 're in love with him . and the reason we need to talk about this is ... because ... well ... so am i . hope : if you can talk to thompson , you can certainly talk to me . rafe : mm - hmm . hope : do n't you trust me ? rafe : hope , it is not that . hope : it is n't ? rafe : no . hope : you 're afraid i 'm going to get in over my head . or is it that i 'm not cop enough to take care of myself ? rafe : come on , stop it . just stop it . hope : if you do n't tell me , i 'll get to the bottom of this myself . you know i will . rafe . rafe : fine . the only reason that i am here today is because the stakes have been raised . hope : and ? rafe : and something happened which i did n't foresee , and now i 'm concerned because others are involved . hope : which others ? rafe : will . hope : does this have anything to do with the article he 's writing for sonix ? rafe : well , it turns out the dimeras bought the magazine , and now they 've ordered a story on clyde weston . hope : why ? rafe : well , that 's the million - dollar question , now , is n't it ? now , maybe it 's because stefano is jealous of kate 's new fling , or perhaps he 's really scared of clyde . hope : rafe , show me what you 've got so far . will and ari are my family . rafe : can i use your computer ? hope : please , have at it . rafe : okay . aiden : income from businesses , portfolios , equity positions -- this is a very sophisticated approach . clyde : you probably thought i kept it all in little black books , did n't you ? aiden : no . no , i just meant that you -- clyde : just giving you a hard time . aiden : okay . clyde : but you see what i need , right ? i need time for me to streamline my operations . i need articles of incorporation to spin off the trucking company . i need revocable trusts -- aiden : what you need is a good tax attorney , not me . clyde : yeah , but like i said , i want to keep it all in the family ... figuratively speaking ... which reminds me , i also need you to draw up a will . aiden : well , you 're not thinking about checking out any time soon , are you ? clyde : counselor , i am planning on living forever . xander : [ sighs ] why so upset ? serena : navidad only shows up when you need her to do something dangerous for you . i thought we had an understanding , xander . xander : we do . serena : you 're having the diamonds examined . i 'm getting out of dodge . you 're getting everything that you wanted . xander : i am . serena : okay , so then if you 're even thinking about going after me or eric -- xander : when are you going to start listening ? i am not . serena : then who else ? oh , my god . this is about nicole , is n't it ? eric : you do n't know what it means that we can call each other friends again . nicole : [ chuckles ] eric : it 's been a tough road getting there . nicole : yes , it has been . eric : but your friendship means a lot to me . nicole : [ sighs ] oh , eric ... i am so grateful to hear you say that , more than you know . and the same goes for me . eric : like i said , we 've come a long way . nicole : yes , we have . eric : after all that torture i put myself through trying to make the right choice ... you know , i feel really blessed that things have worked out the way they were meant to be , i mean , for both of us . [ chuckles ] it 's kind of bittersweet ... you know , having to say good - bye to salem . i 'm moving away with serena . brady : of course theresa 's needs are important as well . no , i did n't mean to insinuate anything . kimberly : oh , no , no , honey , honey , relax . i know your relationship with theresa 's a little fraught . mine 's a little fraught too . and i know , i know . having a baby with my daughter , that 's the last thing you wanted on this -- on this earth . brady : oh , kimberly , that 's -- kimberly : but my ma says having a baby is always a blessing . brady : well , yeah . i mean , absolutely . when you find out you have a baby , you love him instantly ... more than you thought you could ever love anything or anyone . i lost my mother when i was just a baby . and i love my son way too much to even think about separating him from his mother . kimberly : oh , oh , brady ... i really appreciate you saying that , because , you know , being a mother is the hardest job on the planet , even under the best of circumstances , but , you know , it demands sacrifice and selflessness , so theresa 's gon na need a little help . brady : if you 're suggesting , uh , that i hire her a nanny or something , i can do that . kimberly : no , that 's not what i 'm suggesting . no , that 's not what i 'm saying . brady : okay , what are you -- what are you saying ? kimberly : first of all , this is not coming from theresa . it 's coming from me . i think it would be best for all concerned if theresa and the baby just moved to california . theresa : look , i 'm just being honest with you , melanie , and i have to be honest with myself . brady does n't love me back . he loves you . and he 's committed to you . and it would be crazy for me to try to come between you . melanie : if it 's so crazy , why are we talking about it ? theresa : well , i just think you should know . look , i 'm -- i 'm trying to do the right thing . i have been trying so hard to let go of my feelings for brady . melanie : yeah ? theresa : look , maybe you see it differently . okay , but these last few months ... all the fights we 've been in and just that ridiculously awful relationship i got into with clint and the anger and self - destruction , it was my way of just trying to tell myself that you two were n't worth my time . but then came tate , and he changes everything ... for all of us . melanie : yeah , he does . theresa : i 'm glad that you see that . and , look , melanie , you 've seen how brady and i have come together for our son . and to be honest ... it 's really opened my eyes , and -- melanie : to what ? theresa : well , it 's just made me realize that ... i 'm more in love with him now than i ever have been . brady : you are kidding , right ? you 're not going to take my son and move 1,000 miles away . kimberly : oh , come on . nothing 's preventing you from coming too . brady : well , you ca n't -- you ca n't uproot your life , kimberly , but you want me to uproot mine . we are talking about my child , right ? kimberly : yours and theresa 's . brady : if you are worried about theresa living on her own , i understand . but , look , she could move in here . there 's a west wing that 's entirely vacant in this house . she would have a nanny . kimberly : my daughter 's not living in this house with this family . brady : why not ? kimberly : because of him . melanie : i do n't know what to say , theresa . i 'm sorry ? theresa : i 'm not asking for your pity . i just want you to know i 'm not after brady . melanie : so you 're in love with him ... but you 're not after him . theresa : because i 'm bad for him . you know , i ... [ sighs ] i was . look , i dragged him back into a life of drinking and drugs . i mean , hell , i put his father in a coma . melanie : yeah , kind of hard to get past . theresa : yeah , but that was a different time . melanie : oh , okay . theresa : and ... look , i 've matured a great deal since then . melanie : [ scoffs ] theresa : motherhood will do that . but no matter . that ship has sailed -- the one with brady 's and my name on it . you know what ? i 'm sure by this time next year , the two of you will be married , and you 'll be planning to have babies of your own -- trust funds and your whole wonderful futures ahead of you . and me ? well , i 'll be raising my beautiful , little boy and looking across to the other side of the tracks at the two of you and what i 'll never have . melanie : brady will provide for his son . theresa : that 's not what i mean . melanie : then what 's the point ? theresa : look , it 's gon na kill me , melanie . i mean , to be honest , it 's gon na be heart - wrenching . melanie : well , i 'm sure you 'll learn to deal with it , theresa . theresa : actually , melanie , i do n't think that i will . rafe : i started investigating clyde because of jordan . hope : 'cause of jordan , yeah , i know . rafe : yeah . well , now that clyde 's involved with will ... you understand why this is personal for me . hope : yeah , of course . rafe : but why you ? why are you so -- so driven and involved in this ? hope : [ sighs ] i 've known victor a very long time . rafe : yeah . hope : and if he let clyde take over his business territory without a fight , something big is going on , and i want to know what it is . rafe : right . hope : what 's that ? rafe : a little something i stole i should n't be showing you . hope : rafe . rafe : what ? i logged into will 's computer , and i just emailed myself some of his research . hope : i 'm just saying , you could have asked , you know ? rafe : no , he 's already rattled enough . i 'm not gon na let clyde put him in that position , okay ? hope : what 's this document ? rafe : i do n't know . i have n't even had a chance to look at it yet . hope : why do you say that will 's rattled ? rafe : because clyde wants him to write the article . i guess it makes him feel like he 's in control ... and will intelligently declined . hope : then what is all this ? rafe : well , clyde persuaded him to reconsider . hope : are you saying that clyde threatened will ? rafe : well , not in so many words , but that 's certainly how will felt . peel back the southern charm ... hope : yeah , what southern charm ? rafe : yep . clyde has n't got a single redeeming quality that will can write about . guy 's nothing but bad news . eric : you 're not happy for us . nicole : it 's not that . i just , uh ... eric : i know you and serena are n't friends , but i thought you two were getting along pretty well . nicole : well , i mean , we 're working on it . on the bright side , i guess i do n't have to worry about that anymore . eric : nicole . nicole : i - i 'm just ... i 'm just really gon na miss you , okay ? but please know , i want you to be happy . that 's all i want . eric : thank you . i know that . and i want the same for you . i 'm gon na miss you ... a lot . nicole : [ chuckles ] eric : you know , there was a time not long ago where i thought i 'd have a hard time saying that . and i 'm glad we 're able to be friends again . and i do n't want that to change . i hope you 're happy for me . nicole : eric , i - i just -- eric : what ? nicole : can you tell me , um , when exactly are you leaving ? serena : so you 're having navidad check out nicole , trying to figure out what she knows about our business , am i right ? xander : are n't you curious too ? nicole questioned you about the elephant . then she saw that picture on my phone . clearly she 's suspicious about both of us . serena : yes , but ... i mean , what could she really know ? nothing , unless one of us were to tell her , which we wo n't . has it ever occurred to you to try to do it the simple way and just ignore her ? i 'll be getting out of town with eric . she 'll forget about all of this . xander : do not tell me what to do ! serena : you 're not going to drop this , are you ? my god , even when you do n't have a reason , you 'll just -- xander : shh , shh , shh , shh . shh . serena : this is n't about you trying to cover our tracks anymore . you think she 's playing you . and it 's killing you ... so much so that you 'd kill her for it . eric : i 'm not sure when i 'm leaving . um , serena 's leaving pretty soon , and i 'll follow after . i have some things i have to finish up here . nicole : oh , then i do n't have to say good - bye just yet . [ both chuckle ] eric : yeah , i have n't even told my family yet . so , uh ... nicole : i wo n't say a word . oh , eric , you 've had so many lousy things happen to you these last few years . i just want something good to happen now . eric : i want the same for you . i know we talked about this before ... but if i 've made things harder for you and daniel ... nicole : oh , please . daniel and i have plenty of problems without you . [ cell phone beeping ] eric : but you love him . i know you do . i 'm not going to pretend i know the whole story of what 's going on with xander , but you and i both know he 's not right for you . daniel is . serena : you are such a misogynist . you ca n't stand the fact that i am leaving town with eric and you wo n't have me to push around anymore . xander : i do n't care about you . serena : and you do n't care about nicole . what you do care about is that she 's more interested in daniel than you . you have daddy issues , family issues . and i guess you think stealing daniel 's girlfriend would be very satisfying . never mind the fact that she is a psycho bitch who would actually be perfect for you if she were n't trying to -- xander : shut up ! now ... get out . serena : oh , my god , i never should have told xander what nicole was up to . [ sighs ] he could kill her . and if she 's not careful , he will . victor : who the hell let you in ? brady : granddad , we 're in the middle of a conversation . kimberly : oh , no , no , there will be no conversation . theresa and my grandson are not living in this house . victor : as if i 'd even consider it . your daughter 's a brazen hussy , and we all know where she gets it . brady : granddad . what is -- what is going on here ? victor : i know we made love for all the wrong reasons . ca n't deny the truth , now , can we ? we did make love . even though you did it to protect shane -- kimberly : victor -- victor : even though you did it to protect shane ... it 's not the last time between us . kimberly : you do n't know , do you ? you were raised in this house with backstabbers and gossips , and nobody bothers to tell you about your grandfather ? [ chuckles ] no , all right . brady , all you need to know is i meant what i said . theresa 's not coming within a mile of this crypt . victor : it would be a crypt if your daughter had her way . kimberly : after what happened with john -- victor : oh , now , there 's a euphemism . kimberly : she would never be comfortable living here . look , tate is an innocent child . i do n't want him corrupted by -- victor : your daughter . brady : you 're not helping . kimberly : i do n't want him corrupted by you . theresa 's that little boy 's mother . and i 'm gon na help raise him , and shane 's gon na help raise him . victor : because you and shane did just such a fabulous job with your own kids . kimberly : shut up , victor . theresa 's gon na see that coming home is her best option . victor : coming home ? you mean to california ? that 's out of the question . kimberly : you think so ? just watch . brady : what the hell did you do ? i 'll be back to get him in a little while . theresa : thanks . so , as i said , my mom flew in from la today , and she had this idea . and at first , i thought it was crazy , but the more i thought about it , it started to make sense . she wants me to move to california . melanie : and leave tate with brady ? theresa : i never said that . listen , melanie , wherever my son is , of course he belongs with me . i 'm his mother . melanie : so you want to take him to california with you ? theresa : i repeat ... wherever i am , my son belongs with me . eric : i hope i 'm not out of line for saying that , but as long as we 're being honest ... you deserve to be treated better than i ever did . nicole : do n't say that . eric : i know a lot of the reason you do n't trust people has a lot to do with me . you can trust daniel . he 's the real deal . so why is xander even in the picture ? you know what ? you do n't even have to answer that . i 'm just sa -- [ chuckles ] end of sermon . nicole : you know what ? i 'm -- i 'm ... i 'm even going to miss your sermons , eric . please tell me this is n't good - bye . [ chuckles ] eric : absolutely not . salem 's always going to be my home . nicole : i 'm so glad to hear you say that . so i 'll , uh -- i 'll see you later . eric : absolutely . nicole : okay . eric : bye . [ door closes ] nicole : eric 's right . i can trust daniel . it 's time to tell him everything . [ telephone ringing ] nicole : ugh . hello ? ca n't this wait ? [ sighs ] fine . what do you got ? [ scoffs ] clyde : so how 'd your interview with will go ? jeremiah : just the way you scripted it . clyde : good man . jeremiah : i 'm still not sure why you wanted me to -- clyde : hey , we ca n't have everybody thinking i 'm walking on water here . people might start asking questions , jeremiah . and we just ca n't have that . rafe : everybody says the same thing . clyde 's a good guy , works hard , came up from nothing . hope : clyde 's got everyone running scared . rafe : yeah . well , except this guy . he does n't seem to be afraid to speak his mind . hope : what 's his name ? [ knock at door ] i 'm a little busy right now . come back later , please . aiden : how busy ? [ chuckles ] hope : ah ! hi . mwah . never too busy for you . rafe : hey . aiden : rafe . rafe : hello . aiden : what you doing here ? eric : mind if i join you ? [ smooches ] serena : eric , hi . eric : starting early , are you ? i forgot how stressful moving can be . serena : so i guess your family did n't take the news so well , huh ? eric : well , i have n't told them yet . serena : why not ? eric : well , i had a lot of things to handle , you know . i just want to handle this the right way . serena : you do . i know . that 's -- that 's you . eric : listen , i really want to fly out with you , okay ? i just -- i have a lot of loose ends , you know , that need to be wrapped up with work and , uh , apartment and ... things are going to be okay . serena : i know . [ chuckles ] i know . i just ca n't wait to be in hawaii with you so you can see how good it can be for us . eric : they already are . serena : not as good as they could be . that 's not possible here . eric : serena , you 're the best thing that 's ever happened to me . serena : no , i 'm -- i 'm not . victor : that woman wants to take your son to la la land , and you want to know what i did ? why would you even consider having theresa over here ? brady : no , do n't -- do n't . granddad , do not change the subject , all right ? if i 'm going to get involved in some -- some custody battle , i need to know -- victor : oh , my lawyers will make mincemeat of theresa donovan . brady : what do you think kimberly 's lawyers are going to do ? what are they going to do to you ? hmm ? this could be a giant mess . what the hell -- why do n't i know about your history with her ? granddad , tell me , what happened between you and kimberly , and is it going to affect my son ? victor : oh , do n't be ridiculous . brady : yes or no ? victor : of course not . look , it was a different time . brady : what the heck does that mean , anyway -- `` it was a different time `` ? victor : i do n't think you have anything to worry about . brady : i thought i categorically did n't have anything to worry about . but that 's not the case , is it ? is it ? victor : just calm -- brady : i 'm not gon na calm down , granddad . this has to do with my son . it 's important . victor : your son 's future is not in jeopardy . but since you obviously do n't believe me , i 'll make a call -- brady : no , i do n't need you to ma -- i do n't -- i will handle this . melanie : brady is tate 's father . you do n't have the right to take his son away from him . theresa : oh , maybe you do n't understand , melanie , although i think it would be obvious , even to you , who 's never experienced the amazing transformative responsibility of being a mother . this is n't about what i want . it 's about what 's best for my son . melanie : oh , okay . okay . so what 's best for your son is to take him thousands of miles away from his father , his loving and caring father who wants to be a part of his life , who 's also not going to just sit around -- theresa : you think he 'd have a choice ? the judge often sides with the mother , you know , not that i 'd want it to come to that . melanie : you just said that you -- theresa : you know , i mean , it must be hard for you to understand , and i should give you some credit . i suppose it 's difficult for you to relate , since you 've never had a child . but let me be clear . my son 's well - being is my first priority and always will be for the rest of my life . so ... there 's some really crucial decisions that need to be made given the complicated nature of this specific situation . melanie : you are the one making it more complicated by threatening to take his son away from him , by even considering moving thousands of miles away so that he ca n't be with his son . theresa : oh , melanie , melanie , please , try to see this from my perspective . i 'm just weighing my options . and , you know , it 's really hard to decide to do ... i do n't know . it 's -- it 's hard to figure out what 's right . but the only way i 'm going to stay here in salem and raise my beautiful little boy alongside brady would be if ... melanie : if i were n't here ? theresa : oh ... so you do see .

ben : thank you . ciara : mm - hmm . ben : so i was thinking , maybe after work we could go visit my little nephew . ciara : definitely . ben : yeah ? ciara : yeah , i miss that kid so much . ben : good . ciara : oh , and before you head to the garage , there is actually something that i have to show you . ben : okay . ciara : yeah ? ben : mm - hmm . chad : okay , close your eyes . ben : oh . mm . ciara : okay . open . what do you think ? ben : i think that 's a nice picture . ciara : [ chuckles ] it is actually the save the date . ben : ah . ciara : yeah , you have to give them to anyone that you want to invite to our wedding . ben : okay , so clearly you have me mistaken for some super popular guy . truth is i can count on probably one hand who i wan na invite . maybe that 's the way to go . you know , keep it small . ciara : yeah , small would be really lovely and simple , but , baby , you 're not just marrying me . you 're marrying into the kiriakis , the horton , and the brady families . ben : ohh , so small is out . ciara : yeah . yeah , you 're gon na have to get used to big crowds . ben : i do n't think i wan na share you with anybody else . ciara : no ? ben : uh - uh , nope . just mine . [ knocking at door ] really ? ciara : [ laughs ] ben : mm . hey . lani , eli , what 's up ? lani : hey , ben . we need to get your statement . ben : uh ... ciara : about what ? eli : about what he saw when he witnessed gabi 's attack on ben 's boss , jake lambert . jake : gabi . what the hell 'd you do that for ? gabi : so you can finally remember who you really are . i need answers . and there 's really only one way to find out . jake : well , if you think you 're gon na swipe my toothbrush in order to get a dna sample , that would be a hard no . gabi : do n't worry , there 's a much simpler way to find out what i wan na know . i know . i know that rolf was lying when he says he did n't save stefan . maybe it 's just -- maybe it 's just another one of his sick mind games . maybe somebody else saved him . [ sighs ] either way , the love is my life is back . if only he did n't hate me . chad : you 're home . abigail : yes , i am . not for long . [ sighs ] male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] chad : are you hungry ? do you want me to have the cook make you something ? abigail : no , it 's okay . i 'm not -- not hungry , and i should probably start packing soon . chad : your mom actually , she knew that ... we were n't gon na have that much time so she threw some stuff in a suitcase for you . abigail : oh . she did ? i guess i probably should have expected that she would do something like that . chad : she just wants to help . abigail : yeah . chad : so do i. i 'm gon na be with you every step of the way on this . abigail : i know . i know you will . just , god , leaving those sweet little babies , i , um ... i think the thing that i 'm most afraid of is ... chad : what ? abigail : i 'm scared that telling them that i 'm leaving is gon na trigger a hallucination , and i 'm gon na , you know , go crazy in front of them , and i do n't want that for my kids . i do n't want thomas and charlotte to see their mom like that and be afraid of their mom , you know , so ... i think that , um -- i think what 's best is -- is that i just -- you know , it 's better if i just leave without seeing them , and then you can tell them what happened . chad : well , that 's not -- that 's not what 's best . whatever happens when we talk to them ... i 'm gon na be there . i 'll protect them . and you . we 're in this together . you and me . that 's how we 're gon na tell our children . together . ben : and then as soon as gabi was about to stab jake with this syringe , i grabbed her by the wrist and i stopped her . eli : that squares with what chad told us . lani : yeah . that should be enough to put gabi away for a very long time . ciara : no offense , lani , but i think you 're being a little bit biased . lani : meaning what ? ciara : i do n't know , i just -- i do n't think that it was gabi 's intention to hurt jake . i mean , she was just trying to get her husband back . look , i know this is n't the same at all , but the man that i love was on death row for a crime that he did n't commit and my determination to save him made me do some pretty crazy , crazy things . ben : hmm , not crazy . it was brave . ciara : yeah . ben : incredibly sexy brave . ciara : um , well , any way that you wan na look at it , it 's about loving somebody so much that you 'd be willing to do anything to save them . or to bring them back . so i get it . i get how gabi 's grief drove her to do something really desperate . gabi : i have to find a way to prove that i 'm innocent , and convince jake that i 'm telling the truth . jack ? jack : you ruined my daughter 's life again , and now you 're gon na pay . rafe : i just wanted to say that i think the department should give you a commendation for what you did with the bomb . hope : oh , gosh , no . do n't be silly . look , i really have to go . bye , david . rafe : hey , hope , it 's over . it 's over , what happened as -- when you were princess gina , we forgive you . i forgive you . everyone forgives you , okay ? it 's okay . just let it go . just move on with your life . right ? hope : david 's lucky to have you . rafe : okay , yeah , i know . ciara 's lucky to have you . wish her congratulations for me , will you ? hope : i will . rafe : okay . hope : but , um , why do n't you congratulate her yourself ? rafe : all right . hope : bye , david . rafe : i will . bye , hope . hope : bye . uh , have a great day . rafe : you too . hope : bye , david . rafe : bye , hope . lani : thank you so much for your help . ben : oh , glad we can help . ciara : oh , wait , hang on . i want you guys to have one of these . it 's the save the date to our wedding . eli : that 's right , i heard you guys were engaged . congrats . ciara : yeah , yeah , and i would really love it if both of you could be there . lani : yeah , we would love -- love to be at your wedding . eli : of course . ciara : cool . lani : thank you . eli : all right , see you later . ciara : bye . ben : you are very sweet , you know that , right ? ciara : me ? ben : yeah . ciara : yeah ? ben : mm - hmm . ciara : hmm , why do n't you come over here and i can show you how sweet i can really be ? ben : mm . you 've already shown me . ciara : hmm . ben : many , many times . ciara : yeah , but it bears repeating , no ? ben : oh , definitely . ciara : yeah ? ben : but i need to get to work . especially if i 'm gon na save up enough money between now and the date on those cards to buy you a real ring . ciara : i do n't know , ben . i think i 'm actually kinda getting attached to this one . ben : yeah ? ciara : yeah . ben : how 'bout you can wear both then ? how 's that ? ciara : good idea . and here . do n't forget these . ben : oh . ciara : [ sighs ] jake : [ grunting softly ] gabi : all i wanted was to have my husband back so that he can remember who he was , who he is . i would never hurt him . i love him . i love you ! jake : wow , so you what , you come at me with a syringe ? i 'm not buying it , and i 'm not this stefan dude . but you are a bona fide crazy lady . gabi : no ! jack : you may have skated on charges in the past , but this time i 'm warning you , you 're gon na find out and you 're see what 's -- what ? rafe : hey ! what the hell are you doing ? jack : what do you think i 'm doing ? i 'm telling her what she has in store . rafe : well , let me remind you of something . you 're not the mayor anymore . you have no right to come in here and harass my sister . jack : i have every right , commissioner ! she turned my daughter 's life upside down . rafe : what are you talking about ? jack : the drugs that she gave to my daughter have scrambled her brain , and now she has to leave town . she 's leaving salem . gabi : what , abigail 's leaving ? jack : she 's leaving for florida today to start a treatment , a protocol that we do n't even know if it 's gon na work . she 's gon na be separated from her family , separated from her children for god knows how long . gabi : i did n't know that . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . jack : a confession . right there , you see that ? she just confessed . rafe : no , no , she did not . abigail : hi , my sweet angels . hi . hi , sweet girl . you wan na come to your mama ? aww . [ kisses ] there 's my girl . thomas . come sit with your mama ? chad : hey , come on , you 're okay . abigail : what 's wrong ? come here , sit down . what 's the matter , buddy ? thomas : i know you 're going away . abigail : did you see the suitcases upstairs ? yeah . chad : so ... you know when , like , you have a sore tummy , or you sister has a sore throat , we have to take you guys to the doctor to get better ? well , mommy has n't been feeling well , so we have to go to the doctor , we have to get her better . abigail : and this doctor lives in florida . so mommy is gon na go to florida to see this doctor . a very special doctor . thomas : what 's wrong with you , mommy ? abigail : well ... you know , mommy is , uh -- mommy 's seeing things that are n't really there . you know , like a dream . you know when you dream sometimes in the middle of the night and we come and get you ? that 's what 's happening to mommy , but she 's not sleeping . she 's awake . that 's what 's happening , but i 'm -- i 'm okay . it 's just a little confusing for mommy , and -- and sometimes when i do n't know what 's real or what 's like a dream , you know , then it 's a little scary . and it 's okay to be scared , right ? what does mama always say ? you have to face your fears and say what you 're afraid of , right , so you can get better . so that 's what i 'm gon na do . i 'm gon na face my fears and be really brave just like i know you are and you , and i 'm gon na go get help and get better . but even though i do n't -- i do n't really know what 's real or what 's like a dream , i do know one thing that 's real . you know what that is ? it 's that i love you . and i love your sister . and i love your daddy very much . and i know that 's real . thomas : i love you , mama . abigail : oh , baby , i love you . chad : so i 'm gon na take your mom to the doctor . so she can get better . [ gentle music ] it 's starting to happen every day . chad : of course i 'm gon na come back to you . but not -- not right away . your mom is -- she 's very strong . she 's very strong and very brave . that 's why we love her so much , 'cause she 's like a superhero . but even superheroes need partners , and i 'm your mom 's partner . so i have to go with her . i ca n't let her go off and work hard and get better all on her own . right ? just like i would have to be with you and charlotte if you guys were sick , because i love you so much . so i 'm gon na go with mommy and be her partner . and you 're gon na stay here with charlotte and you 're gon na stay with grandma and grandpa . thomas : when will you be back ? chad : i do n't know . as long as it takes for mom to get better . but you and charlotte , you 're just like mom , you 're brave . so you have to be brave while we 're gone . and you have to look out for one another . you think you can do that ? yeah ? and i promise you that our whole family , we 're gon na be together again very soon . is n't that right , mommy ? abigail : yep , that 's right . [ gentle music ] gabi : i am not confessing to anything because i did n't drug abigail . i feel sorry for her because she 's being separated from her children . i have been through that with my own daughter , and i would n't wish it on anybody . jack : if the police do their job , you 'll be separated from arianna for a very long time , which could be a good thing . maybe will and sonny will raise that child to be different from her mother . rafe : that 's enough . get out . jack : you , cut the nepotism . do your job . you hear me ? do your job ! rafe : get out ! [ sighs ] sorry about that . gabi : do n't worry about that , okay ? i heard about orpheus . is david okay ? rafe : yes . yes , thank god . he 's great , and he 's in my office right now , and he 's got a steady rotation of cops watching him . gabi : he 's okay . and thank you for defending me just now . rafe : of course , of course . by the way , was i defending a guilty woman ? ben : hey boss . jake : what 's this ? ben : it 's a save the date card for my wedding . jake : i can read . ben : oh . jake : i 'm just more curious as to why i 'd be invited . ben : well , first of all , i do n't really have many friends in this town , and i also really appreciate you going out on a limb for me , helping me get this job . jake : oh . well , put me down for a maybe . ben : all right . jake : now that you 're done filling up my social calendar , how 'bout you give me a hand with this carburetor ? ben : so last time we talked , you were considering the idea that you might really be stefan dimera , full amnesia . still thinking that 's possible ? eli : ben and ciara are getting married . lani : it 's kind of epic , right ? eli : what ? lani : their love story . eli : oh . lani : and now they are finally going to get their happily ever after , after everything that they 've been through . they deserve it . eli : we 've been through a lot too . i think we deserve our happily ever after . lani : amen to that , brother . eli : mmm . so when are we getting married ? lani : what ? my gums are irritated . eli : we were all set to tie the knot a year and a half ago . right over there . damn , can you believe that we 'd be husband and wife right now if it was n't for -- you know , i 'm not even gon na go there . i have been carrying this around for weeks . the same one that i gave you two years ago . [ gentle music ] lani ... i wan na build a life with you . family , home . i 've just been waiting for the right time to put this ring back on your finger . and i 'm hoping that that moment is now . lani price ... will you marry me ? chad : you guys are gon na have so much fun here with grandma and grandpa while we 're away . abigail : mm - hmm . chad : i 'm kinda jealous . but you can come to florida and visit . abigail : yes , you absolutely can come visit . chad : maybe we can go to universal studios . the wizarding world of harry potter . thomas : okay ! chad : yeah ! i just read him the first book . abigail : wow . jack : and i promised to read my grandson the rest of them . chad : how 's charlotte ? jennifer : hi , sweetie . she 's good . she 's finally asleep , yes . she 's so good . abigail : come here , mister . jennifer : hi , sweetie . hi , hi , hi . abigail : hi . all right , buddy . listen to mama , okay ? i wan na tell you something . when i 'm gone , i want you to promise me that you 're gon na look after your sister , right ? because that 's what big brothers do . can you do that ? i know you 're gon na be the best boy that you always are for grandma and grandpa . right ? who loves you so , so much more than the moon and the stars ? yeah , that 's right , i do . i do . and , you know , i 'm gon na be away , but i 'm not really gon na be away , right ? because no matter where i am , i 'm always gon na be in your heart , right ? so excited . chad : okay , why do n't i -- why do n't i take you upstairs and we got ta let mom talk to her mom and dad . abigail : okay . jennifer : love you , buddy . chad : let 's go . jack : just the boys , right ? chad : yeah . abigail : ah , wow . [ chuckles ] jake : and i may not be the brightest bulb in the box , but i know who i am and i know who i 'm not , and i 'm not this arrogant jerk that this deranged witch doctor rolf raised from the dead . ben : just seemed like you were having your doubts . jake : if i was having any doubts , they were all washed away yesterday when i went to the hospital and found out that that drug you took in , the one that gabi tried to inject me with , was some designer lsd . ben : a hallucinogen ? jake : i guess so . apparently it 's the same drug that gabi dosed this abigail dimera girl with . yeah . gabi : how many times do i have to tell you ? i am innocent . rolf set me up . he admitted it when we were alone . rafe : why would he do that ? gabi : i do n't know , he 's got some weird loyalty to the person he thinks is stefano . do i need to remind you that steve had tried to kill me ? but it did n't happen . i 'm obviously here . now he wants to send me to prison for life . rafe : it seems like you 're reaching to me . gabi : i 'm not , okay ? rolf set me up , and he led me to that drug so that i could be the one that took the fall for abigail . oh , my god . rafe : what ? gabi : oh , my god ! where did he get that drug in the first place ? oh , it was rolf ! rolf was the one that drugged abigail . gabi : this is totally rolf . come on , okay , think about it . rafe : mm - hmm . gabi : the drug that was found in abigail 's system , this is an experimental compound that is being developed by dimera enterprises , right ? it 's not out on the market yet , but he could have had access to it when he was working with brainwashed steve . rafe : okay , but you need to slow down . gabi : no , you need to go to statesville right now and you need to get rolf to admit what he did . rafe : yeah . there 's one small problem with your theory , which is that rolf was already in prison when abigail was drugged . ben : there was plenty of bad blood between gabi and abigail , but i do n't see why gabi would want to hurt you when she thinks you 're stefan . jake : i have no idea , but trying to figure out the behavior of the mentally unstable is a whole brand of crazy in and of itself . ben : i know something about crazy . it 's not gabi 's problem . jake : fine . sane with homicidal tendencies . ben : no , i do n't think so . not towards you at least . look , i had a front row seat to everything that went down between gabi and stefan . those two were head over heels in love . [ gentle music ] eli : lani . what 's going on ? i 'm getting nervous down here . lani : i 'm sorry . i 'm just -- i 'm just thinking about my dad and julie arguing over who 's gon na perform the ceremony . eli : yes ? lani : yes ! eli : yes ? lani : yes , i will marry you . eli : come here . right back where it belongs . lani : [ laughs ] mm . eli : i love you so much . lani : i love you with all of my heart . [ chuckles ] so when are we doing this ? jack : i remember teaching this little girl how to ride a bike . abigail : [ chuckles ] jack : yeah , there we were . you and me . and then i sent you off , first time on your own , and you wobbled and crashed and burned and skinned both knees , and ... you refused to cry . you would not cry . because you did n't want to show a tear . you would n't show a tear to me or any of those big boys in that neighborhood . no . so i had to stop . i could n't show you mine . i had to hide 'em . abigail : come on , i just skinned my knee . jack : i know , i know . i guess i 'm a sensitive guy . abigail : yeah , you are . jack : so not then but today ... i 'm not hiding it today . abigail : it 's okay . me either . jack : and then ... [ sighs ] then , baby , you got up . you got up and you got back on that bike ... and you kept trying and trying . and you never gave up . you kept trying until you could ride that bike faster and better than any of those big boys . abigail : yeah . jack : that is who you are . never forget that . that is who you are . that is who you will always be . i love you . abigail : love you too . jack : i love you . i love you . never forget . riding a bike . abigail : dad . we are the thrivers . lani : well , july is out since that 's when ben and ciara 's wedding is . and i heard from my dad that eric and nicole are engaged and they 're getting married soon too . eli : so what if other people are getting married soon ? look , we have waited long enough . all right , i want to marry you as soon as possible . lani : [ chuckles ] okay . okay . eli : yes ? lani : you 're right . let 's see if we can find a date . eli : find it . lani : [ chuckles ] oh , my god . ciara : you do n't want to officiate at my wedding ? julie : oh , of course . i 'd be honored . but , hmm , i do n't have a very good track record . well , think back . your wedding to rafe . claire interrupted it . gabi 's wedding to eli . lani broke in . that was the end of that , and thank god she did . but that leaves me 0 for 2 . i think i 'm officially bad luck . ciara : yeah , but i think you 're forgetting about chad and abigail 's wedding , and that , that ended up going very , very smoothly . julie : that 's true . ciara : yeah . hope : so maybe the fourth time is the charm , julie . ciara : maybe . maybe . or maybe all this is just an excuse because you do n't approve of my groom . jake : it 's cliché , i know , but there 's a thin line between love and hate in that . ben : well , funny you say that , because before stefan and gabi were in love , they hated each other . jake : huh . ben : with a passion . jake : heard all about that . how the whole thing started as some crazy revenge plot that gabi cooked up . ben : alone they could be ruthless . but together , they were different . jake : so you really think what they had was real ? ben : i know it was real . that 's why if gabi truly thought you were her husband back from the grave , there 's no way in hell that she knew whatever was in that syringe would hurt you . rafe : you see , rolf was already behind bars when abigail was drugged . i 've got guards that can confirm it , surveillance video . he did n't do it . gabi : okay , well , then he had somebody else do it for him . you need to go over there , talk to him and find out who it was . rafe : gabi , gabi , i 'm not -- gabi : rafe , i swear to you , i did n't do this , okay ? i would never hurt stefan , and i did n't drug abigail . jennifer : and then i do n't -- julie made you these oatmeal cookies ; do n't laugh . no , i know . abigail : wait , the cookies . jennifer : they 're good . i mean , i know you do n't like them , but you ca n't hurt julie 's feelings and you would never hurt her feelings because you 're always worried about everyone else , and she wants you to take the cookies with you . abigail : oh , the cookies , the cookies . jack : cookies . abigail : thanks , mom . no , i 'll keep them , i will . and , you know , i got it from you , i , um ... do n't like to hurt people 's feelings because i learned from the best . jennifer : i want you -- i want you to take care of yourself right now . i want you to get better and to come home really soon . and i want you to know that no matter where i am ... i am always with you . abigail : i know . i know you are . jack : aw , sweetie . [ all chuckle ] sweetheart . [ knocks lightly ] chad : it 's time . abigail : okay . yeah . it 's the 6 : 10 [ gentle music ] eli : lani , what 's wrong ? lani : i 'm late . eli : late for what ? did you have an appointment or something ? lani : no , eli . i 'm late . ben : hmm . you better get back to work if you 're gon na give your fiancée the wedding she deserves . [ sighs ] julie : ciara , darling , it 's no secret i did not approve of you and ben , but then he saved my life , then i found out all these wonderful things about him . and besides , i know how much you two love each other . ciara : so does that mean you will marry us , grandma ? julie : of course . i 'm still honored . besides , what are the odds of something going wrong the next time ? [ laughter ] ciara : thank you , grandma . julie : baby . ciara : thank you . chad : our babies wanted you to have these for your trip . abigail : no , no , no , that 's -- i ca n't think those . this is charlotte 's favorite doll and thomas 's favorite dinosaur . these are their most favorite toys , i 'm not taking those . chad : well , they love you . they want you to have them . abigail : okay , i 'll take them . [ gentle music ] and i guess i 'm taking the cookies , right ? jennifer : yes . chad : i 'll take the cookies . abigail : you 'll take the cookies . [ sighs ] ooh , well ... guys , i 'm gon na be fine . i am . i 'm gon na , um ... i 'm gon na beat this . i am , and ... and then i 'm gon na come back , and i 'm gon na come back home . so you do n't have anything to worry about , and by the way , i know that i 'm going to beat this because i know that i have the love and support from such an amazing family . talking about you too . chad : me ? abigail : yeah . [ gentle music ] come on . jennifer : bye , baby . abigail : love you so much . chad : yep , i 'm coming too .

's office . so we ca n't bring back ben wells , but we can help his family and make sure those who were responsible are punished . annabeth : but that 's just the point . he 's not going to be . the mayor -- i overheard him making plans to skip town before he 's arrested . unless someone stops him , he 's going to get away . belle : could you please get that gun out of my face ? you 're making me a little nervous . philip : what the hell were you doing sneaking up on me like that ? you could 've gotten yourself killed . belle : yeah , by you ! philip : why are you following me ? belle : because i know you well enough to know when you 're lying , and you 're obviously up to something other than personal business . so what is it , and why are you sneaking around this warehouse with a gun ? [ gate opens ] philip : is shawn with you ? belle : no . brenda : sami brady , what do you think you 're doing ? sami : oh , uh , brenda , i was just taking these papers to the lab . brenda : let me see those . oh . yeah , i 'm sure the lab is waiting to ru all sorts of tests on your wedding guest list . -h - hmm . now get back to work before i write you up . lucas : hmm . abe : lexie , what is it ?

have you found vin ramsell ? bo : yes , i found vin ramsell , and this place is like a haven to his ex - con buddies . i was able to pass myself off as one of them , you know , till i found the right opportunity to nail ramsell . but my cover was blown , so vin and his posse are after me . uh , jasper , the manager -- he 's their watchdog . hope : hmm . then it 's a good thing i 'm here . bo : oh , yeah , right . hope : mm - hmm . bo : you got a plan ?

annabeth : because you 're the only one i trust . i 'm just a waitress . the mayor 's got lots of friends . if they found out i was the source -- shawn - d : hey , they 're not . nothing 's going b be traced back to you , i promise . so are you sure that the mayor 's going to skip town ?

shawn - d : that boat could be picking him up anytime now . i 'm going to make sure that jerk does n't get away . listen , place an anonymous phone call to the police . tell them to get to pier 11 asap . i may need backup . annabeth : be careful , shawn . man : what are you two doing here ? this is private property . philip : i 'm sorry . the door was open . we just needed a place to be alone because we could n't go back to the dorm . see , she has a boyfriend , and he happens to be my best friend . man : oh , look , enough , ouough . i do n't want to hear your personal soap opera , and you ca n't be here . this is restricted ! now clear out of here , and do n't come back . philip : oh , sure thing . thank you for understanding , sir . belle : excuse me . philip : come on . that was close . let 's get you out of here . come on . belle : no . hold it . you have a lot of explaining to do . bo : this is never going to work . hope : it 's our only chance to nail vin ramsell . bo : our only chance ?

hope : why would shawn go to kent island ? it does n't make any sense . he does n't even know anyone there , does he ? bo : well , maybe that 's exactly why he went , you know ? could be camping out , trying to get away from it all . hope : i also do n't understand how casarez could be so sure those tire tracks belonging to shawn 's bike -- your bike . bo : he 's not . that 's why i asked him to go door to door . listen , if shawn 's out there , we 'll find him .

[ door rattling ] stephanie : what are you gon na do ? melanie does n't know that i 'm here . owen : then why did she lie to my father to get in here , huh ? she had to have some reason to think she could find you here , and now i have to make sure she does n't . stephanie : how can she , owen ? she 's gone . owen : but i do n't know that . she could be lurking out there waiting for me . stephanie : if she 's there , do n't hurt her . owen : you have to understand , stephanie , you have n't left me with a lot of options . you know that ? [ gun cocks ] announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . owen : i have to do this now because of what you did before . stephanie : owen , she 's gone . owen : my father 's upstairs . i do n't want him to know about you . stephanie : does n't that tell you that this is wrong ? that all this is wrong , owen ? owen : i ca n't change it . do n't you get that ? i ca n't stop this . i ca n't undo what i 've done . stephanie : you know you can . owen : stop talking . just stop talking . stephanie : yeah , because you know that i 'm right . owen : you never listen . stephanie : no , wait , wait , wait . owen , owen , just wait . there 's something i need to tell you about melanie . [ door closes ] philip : [ sighs ] that was close . melanie : yeah , that 's -- that 's the thing about this place , though . folks do n't hang around long . alive -- alive folks do n't . philip : yeah , i get that . i get that . he -- he ? melanie : uh ... he . yeah , he . philip : he seems to be about my height . melanie : well , the thing about body bags is they 're kind of a one - size - fits- all thing , so ... philip : well , then , we 're all set . melanie : not quite . um , they bag the bodies and then they send some of them to funeral homes . philip : like heritage park . melanie : exactly , but they send some of them downstairs to the morgues and they have autopsies on them . philip : so we need to make sure that the paperwork is in order . melanie : right . philip : now , tell me again when you were at the funeral home this morning , when the body was delivered , did they check it ? did they open the bag ? anything like that ? melanie : uh ... no . owen 's father left right away and then the guys that delivered the body left like two minutes after that . so they did n't have time to do anything besides maybe put a body in a drawer . philip : so i 'm gon na be in a bag in a drawer in a morgue ? melanie : are you having second thoughts ? philip : no . it 's the only way back into that morgue . melanie : okay , well , i hope it 's worth it . philip : if it gets us stephanie back , it 's worth it . mia : you 're not happy for will 's mother or grace . you do n't think that it 's great that she 'll have a father . nicole : of course i do . mia : no , you do n't . you just think that it 'll keep miss brady away from your husband . nicole : so two good things come out of this . is that so bad ? mia : i get so tired of this , nicole . nicole : what ? mia : you and dr . baker . you 're always playing these games , all these secrets and lies . nicole : well , if you stay away from will , you would n't have to keep secrets and tell lies . mia : i am not staying away from him . you have my baby . that does not mean you run my life . nicole : okay , i did n't say -- mia : you know what ? i have lived up to my end of the bargain . i have not told anyone the truth , and you still do n't trust me . i do n't think you 've ever trusted anyone . nicole : mia , i could help you . mia : i do n't need your help . i need to live my life , and i do not need you breathing down my neck and bossing me around . nicole : okay , calm down . mia : no , you know what , nicole ? you 're gon na stay away from me , or you 're gon na be sorry . rafe : what else did your grandmother say ? sami : it 's gon na be even harder to tell my mom and dad about you adopting grace than it was her and your sister . i mean , my mom -- she can see right through me , even over the phone , and my dad ... he 's nobody 's fool . rafe : we 're not fooling anyone . i want to be grace 's father legally . sami : but why do i want that ? you know , and if we 're so wanting you to be the father , then why do n't we get married ? rafe : is that what you want ? sami : i 'm just explaining what my dad is gon na say , you know ? and he 's not gon na let it go . rafe : yeah , well , he will when he understands . listen , we do not have to keep this a secret , you know . sami : i wish ... rafe : what ? sami : i wish you really were grace 's father . rafe : i am . and soon , i will be legally . you know , one day you 're not gon na have anything to worry about , and you are totally not even gon na know what to do with yourself . sami : [ laughs ] you know what ? i 'll think of something . stephanie : i do n't think melanie was lying about her grandmother . she told me that she was really sick and did n't have much time . owen : and it 's just a coincidence that she came here ? stephanie : the way she shops , she 'll show up at every funeral home in salem before she decides . look , i really do n't think there 's anything to worry about with her . owen : it does n't make any difference . she was here , and she could come back with philip . stephanie : no , no , no , owen . please , please just do n't hurt her . owen : you want to know how we can make that happen ? hmm ? stephanie : how ? owen : we leave for canada right now . stephanie : obviously i do n't have much say in the matter . owen : i do n't want you to feel that way . stephanie : i know . look ... i know you 're just trying to protect me and you 're being really cautious . i appreciate that , but this time i do n't think there 's anything to worry about , especially with melanie . owen : why not ? stephanie : if i had stepped out and she had shaken my hand , she would n't have told philip that she saw me . she 's in love with philip and more than anything in the world , she wants me out of the way . philip : hey . did anybody see you ? melanie : uh , yeah , but nobody asks questions when you look like you know what you 're doing . did you two have a nice talk ? philip : yes , we did . what are we gon na do with him ? melanie : okay , well , um , after we make the switch , i 'm gon na take the body and put it in a drawer in the morgue downstairs . philip : okay . so ... melanie : do n't worry . i can do it on my own because i 'm pretty good at getting guys to help me at what i want . so , um , take your clothes off . philip : what ? melanie : the body is naked , ergo you must be naked . philip : look , it 's not gon na make any difference once i 'm in the bag , and i ca n't scout out that funeral home naked , okay ? melanie : okay , fine . at least take your shirt off . in case somebody opens the bag . just to be safe . just do it . stop giving me a hard time . wow , i ca n't believe that he did that to you . philip : melanie , focus . we have to get stephanie back . melanie : right , sorry . um , stephanie -- so she -- she saw you get shot ? philip : yeah . melanie : and she still wants to marry you ? philip : she does . melanie : she 's stronger than i thought . okay , get in here , stud . philip : i always thought this would be a once - in - a - lifetime kind of thing . melanie : you and me both . philip : all right . let 's get the feet in there . stefano : [ sighs ] when the hell can i get out of here ? lexie : and a cheery good morning to you , too . stefano : i 'm sorry . i just -- i do n't feel particularly cheery right now . lexie : well , you should be . and the way you snarled at me when i came in only confirms your test results . you 're doing much better . your blood - sugar level has stabilized , and there does n't appear to be any permanent damage from the insulin deprivation . stefano : yeah , well , there 's gon na be a lot of permanent damage to victor and philip kiriakis . lexie : okay , do n't , or i will turn and walk out right now . you got that ? stefano : yes , yes , yes . lexie : good . it 's amazing . you know , you 've been given another chance , father . and yet you still just go on as always , threatening . has it occurred to you that if , when you were diagnosed , you 'd focus on getting well instead of exacting revenge , e.j . might not be in jail right now ? stefano : by the way , you have to get him out because i have to talk to him . lexie : you nearly died last night . why does n't that sink in with you ? stefano : all right , look , i know when you use this shrill tone , it is your way of showing love and concern , all right ? i promise you , okay , alexandra ? once everything is settled , i will follow your orders to the `` t , `` all right ? but right now , i need a telephone . lexie : no , right now , i 'm in charge , and you are not getting any damn phone . stefano : [ sighs ] maxine : okay , thanks , carly . i 'm sorry . no one 's seen melanie anywhere . melanie layton ? i just saw her about 10 minutes ago . brady : where was she ? she was moving a gurney up on the seventh floor . maxine : now , what would she be doing up there ? melanie : mission accomplished . philip : thank you for everything . melanie : no problem . this is way more fun than bedpans and lunch trays . so , have you thought about what you 're gon na do when you get in the funeral home ? philip : i 'm just gon na have to play it by ear , see if stephanie 's in there . if she 's not , find something that tells me where owen took her . melanie : okay , and have you checked to make sure you can get yourself out of the body bag ? philip : i was gon na leave it a little open . melanie : good call . okay , i 'm going to wait in the cemetery , so when you get into the funeral home , will you blink the lights once so i know you 're safe ? philip : that 's not gon na work . melanie : why not ? philip : because you 're not gon na be there . stephanie : and that 's just some of the ways that melanie tried keeping me away from philip . owen : it does n't sound like he did much to get rid of her . i mean , my god , if i had someone like you in my life -- stephanie : [ coughing ] water . please . owen : all right . stephanie : please . owen : all right , just do n't try anything this time , okay ? stephanie : thank you . owen : are you all right ? stephanie : oh . do you have a handkerchief ? owen : here . stephanie : i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to break down . it 's just ... knowing that i may never see my mom or dad or my brother again . just ... owen : stephanie , listen to me . when we get to canada , maybe after we 've been there for a little while , you can call your folks . stephanie : you 'd do that for me ? owen : i want you to be happy . stephanie : owen , i do n't have anyone but you . i need you . owen : everything 's gon na be all right . i promise . stephanie : thank you for taking care of me . lexie : stop it . stefano : [ sighs ] i need a phone . lexie : no , you need to stay in bed . stefano : then you bring me one . lexie : i ca n't , all right ? police orders . stefano : police ? lexie : yes . you 're a murder suspect . you tried to kill someone . stefano : [ speaks italian ] i am the victim here . lexie : i told the police officer that he did n't need to handcuff you to the bed . you keep this up , i 'm gon na tell him i was wrong . stefano : you 're enjoying this , huh ? lexie : believe me , i have n't enjoyed much about this family in a very long time . stefano : well , then , bring me my lawyer . abe : no problem . but before that , how about you and i have a little talk ? philip : do you understand this is it for you ? i 'm gon na get in this thing and you 're gon na forget it all ever happened . melanie : come on , you 're pretending to be dead in a body bag . philip : melanie , please ! look what happened to stephanie . i can not let that happen to you . i would n't be able to live with myself . melanie : nothing 's gon na happen to me . come on , philip , you need backup . who 's gon na look after you when you go in there ? philip : why are you doing this ? melanie : huh ? philip : well , this . why are you doing this ? this could be dangerous . what 's in it for you ? melanie : i told you , i owe you . philip : if you owe me , i think the debt 's been paid . melanie : ah , look , we do n't have time to talk about this right now . if somebody came in and saw the dead body talking , i think our plan would go up in smoke , so sit down and shut up . 'cause i 'm gon na help you whether you like it or not . brady : what in the hell are you two doing ? philip : um ... owen : get this off here . you 're welcome , steph . stephanie : oh , thank you . listen , i - i know you 're taking care of me . owen : he -- philip , he 's such a fool . i ... stephanie : what , owen ? owen : i 'd never fight with you , stephanie . i think he -- i think he has so much , he does n't even see how great you are . stephanie : you really believe that ? owen : you 're so beautiful and yet you 're so genuine and real and ... you talk to me and to everyone . stephanie : of course , owen . i talk to you because i told you that i liked you . owen : you did . stephanie : mm - hmm . my mom was always telling me about philip and how he treats girls . she told me that i needed to find a nice guy . i think she 'd really like you , owen . owen : really ? stephanie : you know , sometimes -- this is stupid . owen : no , what ? tell me . stephanie : if only i had met you first . owen : oh , stephanie , that does n't matter , not anymore . announcer : we will return for the second half of `` days of our lives `` in just a moment . stefano : [ sighs ] i am not going to say a word until my lawyer is here . abe : off the record for lexie 's sake . stefano : one -- you are no longer a cop . you are an ineffective mayor of this town . two -- i am not going to allow you to use my daughter to coerce me . abe : do you have any idea what she has been through because of you ? you are smug , you are arrogant , and you are stupid . stefano : thank you . abe : you 've screwed up big - time . and as happy as it would make me to see you spend the rest of your life in prison , maybe ... maybe , for lexie 's sake , i can broker something . stefano : get him out of here . abe : so lexie means nothing ? philip 's life means nothing ? that poor girl you kidnapped means nothing ? stefano : i said get him out ! lexie : okay , abe , leave . leave , leave . please leave , honey . abe : do n't you let him die until we find stephanie . and after that ... i do n't give a damn . [ door slams ] rafe : see , you know what is so great ? that you and grace -- look , you guys have the same smile . sami : stop it . shh ! no , we ca n't . rafe : sorry . sami : i know from experience that these walls have ears . rafe : it 's really nice getting to know your family . sami : [ laughs ] yeah , 'cause my grandma was so sweet and nice to you ? rafe : i totally understand where she 's coming from . as long as she keeps feeding me , i 'm fine . sami : you 're gon na win her over . she 's gon na be crazy about you . just like i am . and grace is . right , grace ? grandma is gon na love your daddy . nicole : wow . you look up `` domestic bliss `` in the dictionary and there 's a picture of all three of you . mia : hey . will : what 's up ? mia : thanks for waiting around . i 'm really sorry i took off like that . will : no , that 's fine . is your cousin okay ? mia : yeah , i finally told her to back off . will : really ? mia : yeah , so it 'll probably work for like an hour or two . [ both chuckle ] will : that -- that 's the cousin you 're living with ? mia : huh ? oh , no , yeah . will : that 's who you were talking about , right ? mia : yeah . no , i know . yeah , i live with my cousin , and her boyfriend lives there , too . will : it 's just the three of you ? mia : right . will : big place ? mia : tiny . it 's one bedroom , so i sleep on the couch in the living room . i pretty much hate it , but it 's a place to live , you know ? will : why do you hate it ? mia : my cousin 's mean , and her boyfriend 's got this attitude like he owns the place . i mean , he treats me like a boarder . will : well , can you ... live somewhere else ? mia : sure , on the streets . will : well , what about your parents ? mia : let 's not talk about this anymore , okay ? will : okay . so , you want to hang out right now ? mia : sure . will : you want some coffee ? mia : all right , look , horton , i got to tell you , i think we have done this coffee thing to death . i think it 's time we expand our horizons . will : m - meaning ... what ? mia : meaning ... follow me . will : uh , okay . brady : i repeat -- what the hell are you two doing ? what is this ? philip : this has nothing to do with you , okay ? brady : so , philip , if i go , i go straight to hospital security . will you tell me what 's going on ? philip : we think we know who has stephanie . brady : great , then let 's go tell bo . what are you doing here playing dead ? philip : the guy who worked for us , stefano got to him somehow , okay ? he took stephanie , and his father works for the funeral home . melanie : right , and i went to the morgue and i found stephanie 's earring on the floor . brady : oh , god , let me guess . and you 're -- what , you 're gon na be their next client ? did you ever stop to think they might see you breathing or you 're gon na start screaming when they embalm you ? philip : listen to me -- this guy has gone south . they have stefano back . we do n't have stephanie yet , okay ? they still have her . brady : then what are you doing playing games ? why do n't we go to bo , hmm ? philip : it 's a way to get in there without seeing me . brady , if the cops confront the guy , he 'll clam up . kidnapping -- that 's a capital offense . i 've got to get her back . owen : how could you do that to me ? how ? sami : what do you want ? nicole : nothing . i just thought that you looked so cute right now , like this perfect little family . sami : yeah , and your approval means so much to me . rafe : we are a family . nicole : oh ! did you get married ? rafe : no , i meant i 'm adopting grace . nicole : really ? sami : but that 's none of your business . rafe : yeah , you 're right . it is n't any of her business . it 's none of her husband 's business , either , but you might as well go ahead and tell him . you see , sami has backup now and grace has a dad . nicole : okay , i - i 'm sorry if you feel the need to be hostile about such lovely news . i really am happy for both of you . sami : oh , shut up . seriously ? you do n't care about anything unless there 's something in it for you . nicole : sami , i just -- sami : and you 're up to something , and i 'm gon na find out what it is . will : can i please take this off now ? mia : [ chuckles ] no , see , the bet was three hours , and , you know , that 's what you get for questioning my superiority at skee - ball . will : you know , let 's go to a batting cage , have a bet about that . mia : uh , that 's not fair . will : yeah , you 're right . here , i know . how about no bet ? i 'll just teach you how to play . mia : yeah , 'cause that 's good , 'cause , you know , i need to learn some practical skills . will : [ chuckles ] all right , okay , so here 's the bet -- give me 20 minutes , see if you do n't like it . i promise you , first time you hit it on the sweet spot , you 'll be a baseball junkie . oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean -- if i hurt your feelings . mia : horton , i do n't think you could hurt my feelings if you tried . now , come on . take me out to the ballgame . owen : i ca n't believe you did that . stephanie : owen , owen , it 's not what you think . the gun , it scares me . i thought it could go off . owen : are you telling me the truth ? stephanie : oh , god . look , after -- after they shot philip , guns -- they terrify me . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . owen : i am , too , but i have to keep it , but i 'm not gon na hurt you . you have to understand that , and i 'm not gon na let anyone else hurt you , either . that 's why i have to go out there and see who or what is outside . stephanie : owen , please do n't hurt melanie . owen : after what she did ? after the way she was with your boyfriend ? stephanie : i 'm just tired of people getting hurt . owen : me too . that 's why it 's gon na stop soon . stephanie : what are you doing ? owen : i 'm making sure you stay safe , stephanie . now , listen , it tastes a bit bitter , but i want you to drink this . stephanie : i do n't know what that is . i 'm not drinking that . owen : well , then , maybe you should n't have let me know how scared you are of this . now , listen , this wo n't hurt you , all right ? but if you do n't drink it , i might . you see , you 're not on my good side right now . drink it . all of it . stephanie : what 's it gon na do ? owen : you 're gon na go to sleep now . i 'm gon na put you in the drawer , but do n't worry . i drilled holes in there so you wo n't have any trouble breathing . in fact , you might actually have a nice rest . stephanie : i just -- no , i ... owen : it 's all right . sleep well . brady : you 're not changing your mind about this , are you ? philip : no . do n't tell anyone , brady , please . brady : oh , god . all right , all right . one condition , though . i 'm helping you out here . philip : thank you . you do n't have to go . i have backup . melanie : but , philip , come on . you need somebody who knows what owen and his dad look like . in fact , if you do n't let me help you , i 'll go to bo . philip : [ sighs ] you 'll take care of her ? brady : yeah , i 'll take care of her . melanie : lovely . now that that 's taken care of , can we get you going , please ? because i think we 've wasted enough time . philip : keep your phone on so i can text you . brady : come on , let 's move . let 's do this . abe : there is no spin on this . just tell them we have both dimeras in custody and we have an apb out on philip kiriakis . just do it . sorry . lexie : no , you 're not . abe : is he all right ? lexie : medically , he 's stabilized . i do n't think i 'll ever again be able to describe it as all right . abe : lex , look ... i lose my temper because he puts you through all of this . lexie : um , you -- you wanted to talk to him . what do you want to find out ? abe : well , if philip 's still alive , what went down on that pier , where ... where all this is going . lexie : hmm . i wonder if he was able to talk to someone if it would put an end to all of this . abe : what are you saying ? lexie : more than anything , he wants to talk to e.j . i think you should let him . nicole : i guess all that time in witness protection made you a little paranoid , huh ? sami : oh , give me a break . this little happy routine -- not working . no one 's buying it . nicole : i really am happy for both of you , okay , but i do n't want to ruin your good mood , so , rafe , congratulations . you have a beautiful daughter . sami : are you gon na update your facebook status now ? are you serious ? i ca n't believe you just told her . rafe : she was gon na find out eventually . like i said , we can not keep this a secret . sami : you just wanted e.j . to find out . rafe : yeah , i did , actually . but there 's another reason and when you think about it , i know that you 're gon na agree with me . will : you were n't terrible . i mean , you 're just a rookie , so ... mia : so it 's normal for rookies to jump away screaming when the ball comes at them ? will : well , i mean , the ball does come at you pretty fast , so once you work on your coordination -- mia : my coordination ?

[ scene_break ] lexie : i want to tell you something ... something that 's not easy to talk about . ej : okay . lexie : um ... you know that i love theo with every fiber of my being . but sometimes it 's a challenge . you know , i mean , abe and i have to be his parent , his therapist , his advocate , his -- oh , goodness , it 's just -- it 's relentless . and , um , sometimes when he 's had a really hard day and we just ca n't seem to reach him ... it 's -- it 's defeating ... you know ? what -- what got me through those feelings , what helped me fight off despair was my work -- going to the hospital , doing my job . you know , it was my salvation . it gave me strength . abe is going to be raising theo on his own , with no job to go to . i mean , after theo and me , being mayor was the most important thing in the world to him . and you took that away from him . ej : alexandra ... lexie : i 'm asking you to give it back . [ scene_break ] abigail : how happy i am to be having this conversation with my parents present . maybe we could phone - in jj , see if he has any input , hmm ? [ cell phone rings ] jack : well -- cameron : sorry . it 's just the hospital . some tests i ordered will be ready in an hour . jack : wait a minute -- you order tests ? that means you 're a -- abigail : doctor , yeah . you tense up every time your phone rings . cameron : [ sighs ] abigail : he 's worried about lexie . jennifer : oh , uh , how do you know lexie ? cameron : she 's my sister ... half - sister . jennifer : oh , okay , i did n't know that . cameron : neither did she . she , uh -- our mother likes to keep things interesting . jennifer : well , it 's wonderful that you 're here for her right now . cameron : yeah . unfortunately , there 's not a lot i can do . abigail : that is not true . he 's been working at the hospital and seeing some of lexie 's patients . cameron : yeah , she worries about them . i wish she would n't , but , you know , you ca n't tell her anything . jennifer : i know -- that 's lexie . jack : [ chuckles ] jennifer : you know , she said she would call me when she felt up to having some company . cameron : she gets pretty tired these days . jack : you know , it 's such a nice day . what do you say we take a walk ? jennifer : no , i did n't finish my muffin yet , jack -- jack : i think that ... jennifer : oh ! yes , yes . let 's go -- let 's take a walk . it 's beautiful out . jack : yes . jennifer : cameron , it 's , um , so nice to meet you . very nice to meet you . jack : yes , absolutely . jennifer : bye . abigail : bye . jack : bye . jennifer : see you .

[ scene_break ] ej : i really do n't know what to say . lexie : i surprised you , right ? i 'll bet you thought i was too fine of a person to play the `` brain tumor `` card to get what i wanted from you . ej : [ chuckles ] look , i would do anything for you . you know that . lexie : but not for abe ? ej : [ exhales deeply ] alexandra , there was an election . i mean , i won . lexie : you could resign . ej : even if i did resign , it 's incredibly unlikely that abraham would fill the post . lexie : because he got the debate questions in advance . ej : yeah . lexie : i want you to fix that . and i want you to clear him and jennifer of the ballot - tampering charges , of which they are completely innocent . ej : do you ? lexie : yeah . ej : is there anything else i can do for you ? lexie : as a matter of fact , there is . after you 've cleared their names , i want you to announce that you are stepping down as mayor to concentrate on your personal life . and then i want you to endorse abe . ej : alexandra , i do n't have a personal life . i mean , this -- this fledgling political career is the only thing that i have . lexie : well , they can come up with something for you to do . ej , you ca n't tell me that you actually enjoy going to city council meetings . i mean , really . you 're playing at being the mayor . what you are is stefano dimera 's heir apparent . ej : look , my situation with father is not exactly what it used to be . lexie : okay . something 's going on . what is it ? ej : do you really have to ask ? lexie : no . no , no , no , no . something besides me . ej : alexandra ... i ca n't do any of these things you 're asking me to do ... not anymore . [ scene_break ] will : i 'm not gon na tell you anything . sami : will ... will , is ej making you do something that you do n't want to do ? will : why are you -- who are you to judge anybody , even ej ? sami : all right , all right . i do n't want to talk about ej . i really do n't . here 's what i came to say . you told me to look in the mirror . i did . and i saw that what i did and how i handled it is the worst possible thing you could do when your son tells you that he 's gay . i walked out . and i just want you to hear me say i 'm sorry . will : you 're sorry . sami : sorrier than i can even describe . will : and i 'm supposed to believe that ? sami : i have n't finished . will : okay , knock yourself out . sami : well ... what i was going to say is i would love for there to be a do- over . you could start over . you could tell me everything that you wanted to say the first time . will : okay , what do you want to know ? sami : um , well , i talked to adrienne about it , and , um , she said that sonny had -- had known all along , ever since he was little . and i was thinking about you , and i did n't feel like i ever saw you struggling with something like that until the last couple months , and , well , i just wanted to know why that is . um , did something happen ? will : no . nothing happened . i just figured it out . i just knew . sami : h - how ? why ? i mean , you had girlfriends . will : look , i 'm not gon na justify this to you . sami : no , no . i 'm not asking you to do that . i 'm sorry , again . i 'm just new -- new to this , and , you know , i 'm just trying to understand . you were n't including me along the way , so you kind of just threw it in my face when you were mad at me , and i 'm just trying to -- will : okay , what are you saying ? sami : well , if you were trying to make a point , that i was n't paying attention , you succeeded . will : oh , my god , you 're doing it again . sami : what ? will : really ? i was trying to get your attention ? sami : no , no . i did n't mean it like that . will : what are you saying , then ? you 're making this about you ! sami : no , i 'm -- i 'm not ! you 're not listening to me ! i 'm asking everything -- all of this is about you . will : yes , but that was to come to the conclusion that i decided to be gay so i could get your attention ! that is unbelievable . [ scene_break ] ej : hey . i really do n't think this is the time to be talking about my problems . lexie : you and father are n't getting along . ej : [ sighs ] you could say that . lexie : i 've seen you distancing yourself from him . i know that running for mayor was your way of saying that you 're not father . ej : right . lexie : but , ej , you are n't him , no matter what your job position is . ej : i need you to know something . theo is always going to be taken care of -- financially , i mean . lexie : do n't you even think about trying to change the subject here . [ both laughing ] ej : ah ! i 'm just trying to take a break from father -- that 's all i 'm telling you , okay ? lexie : yeah , but ... listen to this . you did . honey , you did take a break . and i believe that you 've changed father ... because i never thought in a million years that he ... [ chuckles ] that he would work with the federal government to help , like , set up an arms dealer ? i mean , really ? ej : [ laughs ] right . lexie : yeah . i really -- i really believe that , uh , this is the beginning of the dimera name being a source of pride . maybe you and father can change what that name means . okay ... something 's going on . there 's something you 're not telling me . okay , what is it ? hmm ? if you tell me , i 'll stop leaning on you about abe . let me help you , ej ... hey , while i still have time . [ laughs ] ej : i 'm sorry , sweetheart . this one not even you can fix . and that is saying something . ugh . hmm . i , uh ... i ca n't change the dimera name ... because i 'm not a dimera . lexie : what ? ej : there was some sort of mix - up , apparently . stefano is not my father . i 'm not a dimera . you 're not my sister . [ scene_break ] cameron : it 's kind of nice to see people who have been together so long that are still happy to be married . abigail : oh , my parents are divorced . cameron : they 're celebrating their anniversary , but they 're divorced ? i got to say that 's pretty amicable . abigail : very amicable , because they are engaged to be married again . cameron : to each other ? abigail : mm - hmm . cameron : and i thought my family was unconventional . abigail : i consider myself so lucky to be born before internet dating , because there is not a website in this entire world that would put those two together . cameron : and yet they 're ready to get married all over again . abigail : well , third time could be a charm . cameron : third time ? abigail : it 's a really , really long story . anyway , here 's hoping . [ scene_break ] jennifer : so what do you think ? do you think that it 's all over for us ... the danger , drama , living on the edge , cross - purpose disaster part of our lives ? jack : you want it to be ? jennifer : i do n't know . i mean , it was pretty exhausting . jack : it was exhausting . but it was also pretty exciting sometimes too . jennifer : [ chuckles ] yes , it was ... it was very exciting . and it was good . it was really good . [ scene_break ] lexie : father must have done something terribly wrong for you to say that he 's no longer your father . ej : alexandra , i mean it literally . he 's not my father . lexie : wait . what ? ej : he thought he was , and then , uh ... lexie : oh , ej . ej : when he found out he was n't my biological father , he set about ... [ chuckles ] i do n't know -- trying to undo my life , i suppose . he worked behind my back to undermine everything that i 've ever achieved . and , uh ... then he disowned me ... to my face . lexie : oh , god , but that does n't make sense . i mean , he 's put his whole life -- i mean , the future of the dimera family behind you . ej : that was when he thought i was his son . when he thought i had his blood running through my veins . i put my life on the line for that man many times . it means nothing . lexie : you know what ? he 's reeling , okay ? he 's reeling . he 'll get over it , okay ? ej : alexandra , even if he did , i wo n't get over it . do you know that he had william break up my marriage to nicole ? lexie : wha -- ? ej : william . lexie : no , no , he knows how much she means to you . ej : i was happy . he did n't like that . you know , i did n't do anything to deserve this . i did n't deceive him into thinking that -- that -- that i was his son somehow . all i did was love him ... you know ? but ... [ scoffs ] that means nothing . lexie : [ scoffs ] i do n't believe him . i 'm gon na go -- i 'm gon na talk to him . ej : hey , no , you will not . no , you will not . lexie : [ sighs ] ej : alexandra , please ... you promise me . hey . promise me -- you do not confront him . okay ? you do not have the strength for it , and this is not how you spend your time . lexie : ej , this is wrong , okay ? ej : i did not want to tell you . you forced it out of me . lexie : look at me . you can tell me anything . ej : i did n't want you to know that you were n't my sister . lexie : the hell i 'm not . you are my brother . and nothing can change that . nothing , you hear me ? nothing ! nothing , nothing . [ scene_break ] will : see ya . sami : you get to walk out , but it 's not okay when i do it ? will ... the library of congress has an entire wing dedicated to my faults . but if there 's one thing i do n't do ... i do n't judge people . [ chuckles ] okay , fine . all right , i do that too . i judge people i hate . i judge people who deserve it . i do n't judge people for who they are . i love you . i love you with everything i 've got ... unconditionally . so now i know something about you that i -- that i did n't know before . but that does not change how i feel about you . will : so you 're okay with me being gay ? sami : [ sighs ] no , i - i ca n't say that either . will : so can we be done talking now maybe ? because every time i think i ca n't feel worse , you make that happen . sami : you do n't ever let me finish . please , i 'm not done . what i wanted to say is i am okay with you being gay . i 'm just worried about the rest of the world . will : yeah , dad -- okay , dad said the same thing , but that 's ridiculous . sami : it 's not ridiculous ! i read all the time about bullying and people doing terrible things , and i do n't want that -- will : yeah , but the world is changing ... i mean , slowly but families all over are realizing that someone they love is gay . sami : well , i hope they handle it better than i did . if you had even one moment of shame or fear because of how i reacted or how you thought i was feeling ... you 're my first born . you put up with me when i did n't know squat about how to be a mother , and when you were little , it was like you and me -- we were this team . will , there is a huge part of my heart ... just for you . i love you so much . i just want to know if you 'll give me another chance . [ scene_break ] lexie : now , you listen to me . i have fought with you , mourned with you , worried about you . ej : [ laughs ] lexie : you 've been an uncle to my son . you 've called a truce with my husband . more importantly , you are here for me when i need you the most . that 's what makes you my brother , not some markers on a paternity test . ej : [ sighs ] thank you . i 'm glad somebody in the family feels that way . lexie : well ... ej : this news , especially father 's -- oh , look at that . i 'm still calling him `` father . `` lexie : mm - mm . ej : especially his reaction to it , it 's hit me rather hard . lexie : well , how do you know it 's true ? have you had a dna test done ? ej : alexandra , he 's made up his mind . lexie : [ sighs ] well , it does n't matter , okay ? because no blood test , not father , nothing can sever my connection with you . you are stuck with me forever ... and ever ... and ever ... and ever and ever . ej : [ laughs ] lexie : i love you . and ever -- i love you . [ both laughing ] ej : i love you . lexie : [ laughing ] you know , there are times when i wish i was n't a dimera . ej : no , really ? [ both laugh ] lexie : goodness , i really do n't like everyone i know hating my family ... [ sighs ] for good reason , you know ? i do n't like never knowing what father 's gon na do next . i get so tired of fighting off a ... [ sighs ] a genetic disposition to pure evil . ej : i could not possibly imagine what you mean . [ both laugh ] lexie : but you know what , little brother ? you made it all worth it . it 's all been worth it , having you as a brother . listen , um ... i 'm sorry ... for all the pain you 're in right now , but i do n't believe it was some twist of fate that brought you to our family . i believe that god brought you to us . i believe that god decided that you and i should be brother and sister . ej : you are the sweetest sister a man could ever ask for . lexie : mm , well , wait until i 'm gone before you declare me a saint , okay ? ej : that 's not funny ! lexie : [ laughs ] oh , ej . okay , okay , let 's change the subject . ej : okay . lexie : let 's talk about father . ej : oh ! my favorite subject . lexie : i want you to think about how utterly alone he is right now . i mean , yeah , it was his own doing , but ... ej , we both know how much he loved you ... how much he needed you . yet , what did he do when he got the news ? he pushed you away . why ? ej : alexandra , you do n't seriously expect me to feel sorry for him , do you ? lexie : i know -- i know you 're hurting . i know you 're hurting . but think about the fact that he might be hurting himself even more . i just do n't want you to end up like him . ej : it 's sort of the ultimate irony , is n't it ? you know ? lexie : ahh . ej : i 'm not his son , but i am just like him . [ scene_break ] cameron : [ sighs ] i got to go pick up those tests and check in on another one of lexie 's patients . abigail : okay . well , i 'm glad we ran into each other . cameron : yeah , me too . you know , you never said anything about going out again . uh , i was wondering if you 're busy tonight , then maybe we -- abigail : actually , i do have plans tonight . cameron : got ya . abigail : but i was just thinking ... they could include you . [ scene_break ] jennifer : do you think that we have grown up , like ... jack : [ chuckles ] jennifer : jack , i am serious . do you think that we are -- that we are settled down ? jack : well , um ... [ cell phone rings ] hold that thought . i think that ... no . i do n't think that we 've settled down quite yet . [ scene_break ] will : mom , you , um ... drive me insane . [ chuckles ] but , uh ... it 's only because of how much that i love you . sami : i have n't been so sure for the last couple months . will : well ... sami : but -- uh , but i believe you . do n't take it back , okay ? will : [ chuckles ] sami : [ crying ] i love you so much . and you know i just want you to be happy . i want you to be so happy , and i just do n't want anybody to ever hurt you . will : everybody gets hurt sometimes . sami : i know . i know . but i do n't want to hurt you . i do n't want to hurt you ever again . i hope you know that . will : i do . i do . sami : oh . i 'm here with karen and her bffs .

serena : nicole , i know that you do n't like me and i 'm sure you know that the feeling is mutual . but i ca n't sit back and watch you make a horrible mistake . nicole : what mistake ? serena : you need to stay away from xander . kimberly : your father and i also , we started researching custody lawyers and i hope it does n't come to that , but if brady puts up a -- theresa : oh , no , do n't worry , mom . brady will put tate first , and i 'm sure once he 's had more time to think about it , he 'll realize exactly what 's best for all of us . melanie : we thought that motherhood was gon na change theresa . we were wrong ... obviously . um , at least she was direct with me . i mean , in an -- in an indirect way . brady : i do n't -- i do n't know what you 're saying . melanie : she made it pretty clear what she wanted , and theresa -- [ knock at door ] brady : hold that thought . it 's probably aiden . if we 're lucky , whatever theresa wants will be irrelevant . aiden , thanks for coming . aiden : yeah , of course . brady : now please , please ... tell me you can help us . eric : let me get the drinks . xander : have i done something to upset you , daniel ? if this is about nicole , i went to your apartment earlier to try to explain -- daniel : okay , xander , stop . i 'm tired of your endless explanations , especially since there never seems to be much truth to them . nicole : if this is about running into each other at xander 's hotel room , you misunderstood . we are strictly acquaintances . i was there to interview him for a story -- serena : nicole , save it . i know what you 're doing and you 're in way over your head . you need to stay away from xander , and if you do n't , let me be clear . you will ruin your life . you will lose daniel and so much more . lucas : mom , shut up . kate : [ scoffs ] what , does it hurt your feelings that i 'm speaking the truth ? lucas : have you never shacked up with a married man , really ? is n't that the whole reason i 'm here ? kate : and jennifer and the entire horton clan would never let me forget it , and i 've been a pariah in this town for years , and i do n't want that for you . adrienne : i do n't want that for you either , lucas . i do n't care what people say about me , but you -- lucas : listen , no one 's gon na say anything about you . your husband left you . you have a right to move on with your life and be happy . kate : she 's concerned for you , as am i . lucas : oh , really , so concerned that you stole my job from me , really ? kate : all right , lucas , that was never my intention . lucas : gim me a break , all right , come on . kate : i know that you 're still hurting , and it breaks my heart that you feel that way . lucas : oh , does it , really ? i can tell . kate : i ... you 're my son . of course it does . lucas : no , no , no . did n't you understand me ? you 're nothing to me now . kate : i would do anything for you . good , then do this : get out of my life , once and for all . justin : i 'm going to dubai . victor : nonsense . you just got here . i 've hardly seen you . justin : well , i 'm sorry about that , but i really need to get back . victor : why , because you ca n't bear to be away from your mistress a moment longer ? what 's her name ? olga ? justin : her name is elsa , and she 's not my mistress . victor : save your breath . i know everything . justin : uncle vic , whatever adrienne said about what 's going on over there -- victor : i knew long before adrienne said anything . i was just hoping that you 'd come to your senses before she found out . justin : well as much as i 'd love to hear you hold forth on how i 've destroyed my marriage because god knows you have never screwed up , i have to catch a flight . victor : no , justin , you 're not going anywhere . theresa : i hate being here without my baby . kimberly : i know , i know , but you have to take care of yourself so you can take care of your precious son . theresa : i just love him so much , mom . i mean , i love him more than i ever thought i ... i just hope i do n't screw this up . kimberly : honey , you 'll be just fine . your instincts are gon na take over . i promise it 's gon na be fine . theresa : well , if you think it would be just fine , then why would you want to move me halfway across the country ? kimberly : oh , being a single parent is the hardest job in the world , trust me . that 's why i want to be here to support you , baby . selfishly , i do n't want to miss out on this precious time with my grandson . and also , if it takes time to work this custody situation out with brady , i 'll stay as long as it takes . theresa : actually , mom ... i think that 's a terrible idea . brady : i 'm sorry , uh ... aiden jennings , melanie jonas . aiden : oh . melanie : hi . aiden : nice to meet you . melanie : my dad speaks so highly of you . aiden : oh . brady : if anybody can figure out a way to keep kimberly and theresa from taking my son away , it 's this guy . aiden : uh , well , i appreciate your faith in me , brady , but um , look , i had an opportunity to look at the particulars of your case before i came by and i got ta warn you , i ca n't make any promises that we can stop theresa from leaving salem with your son . xander : i do n't know what i 've done to suddenly earn your distrust . daniel : well , you told me you never would have gone after nicole if you had known we were together -- xander : and i would n't have . i -- i swear , i did n't know you two were dating when she and i first met . daniel : no , but you know now . so instead of backing off , you have her up in your hotel room -- xander : that 's what i was trying to explain . daniel : yeah ? xander : listen , come on . come on . it was completely innocent , daniel . daniel : yeah ? that 's right , yeah , nicole said she wanted to interview you -- you for a piece about brady . but we both know that is just ridiculous . xander : look , i ... i know it sounds implausible , but you have no reason to be jealous . if you truly love nicole -- daniel : of course i love nicole . what i do n't love is being lied to by her . and you . nicole : hmm . this is very interesting . you do n't like me , and i do n't like you , and suddenly you 're interested in my love life . you would n't happen to be jealous of my friendship with xander -- serena : i love eric . we 're moving -- nicole : to hawaii . yes , i know . he came here and he told me , and i 'm staying here and you do n't have to worry about me anymore . serena : believe me , i 'm looking forward to it . nicole : hmm . so you and xander go way back , right ? all the way back to africa . so , if you 're not jealous -- serena : i 'm not . nicole : okay . then you 're worried that xander 's gon na slip up and tell me about your deepest , darkest secrets ? serena : please , nicole , just stop talking and listen to me . i am trying to save your life , you stupid bitch . kimberly : whoa . why is it a terrible idea ? theresa : well , if i decide to go back to california , i just do n't want brady and i to have to go through a whole custody battle . and i 'd -- i 'd rather work it out without going to court . kimberly : yeah , i 'd like that too -- me too . theresa : okay , and i think it 's gon na be a little harder to deal with if you 're here . kimberly : why ? theresa : well , mom , you just got in a huge fight with brady , and then there 's victor . he hates you . kimberly : oh , really ? well , the feeling is mutual . theresa : yes , but brady and i are getting along now , and i think it would be a little less contentious if you 're not in the middle of it . no offense . kimberly : no -- no , i 'm -- i 'm not con -- i 'm not offended . i just do n't want victor kiriakis railroading my little girl . theresa : mom , i 'm pretty good about standing up for myself . and if i need back up , grandma caroline will be here and , you know , she has a way of putting old vic in his place . kimberly : well , i ca n't argue with you there . you absolutely sure you want me to go so you and brady can work this out on your own ? theresa : i think that would be best . melanie : mr. jennings , i know courts tend to side with the mother in cases like this , but given theresa 's history -- brady : yeah , then there 's my history . aiden : well , there 's also the fact that theresa was a victim in a high - profile kidnapping . her child has already been taken from her once . brady : mm - hmm , by my psycho ex . aiden : yeah , and a judge might be very reluctant to separate theresa from tate again , especially considering all the public outrage it might provoke , you know . melanie : provo -- how -- how 's this for provoking ? his dad was clubbed by theresa with a fire poker and almost died . aiden : wait , what ? brady : yeah , charges were never filed . long story . aiden : okay , well ... we can raise that issue in family court , but on the flip side , if we 're talking about tate living under victor 's roof , theresa 's lawyer could bring up the history between victor and theresa 's parents . melanie : what -- what history ? brady : it 's -- it 's not -- it 's not good . my grandfather never talks about it , which means it 's probably pretty -- aiden : bad . i checked into it . look , again , another situation where no charges were filed , but apparently when victor was being investigated by shane donovan , there were a few allegations of attempted murder and the like , so ... melanie : murder ? brady : attempted ... this is -- this just keeps getting better -- okay , hold on . so theresa , she 's the daughter of an isa agent , she 's the granddaughter of the beloved brady 's , and my grandfather was tony soprano . there 's no way in hell i 'm getting custody , is there ? aiden : all right , look , brady . this is not my area of expertise . i 'm gon na consult with an associate , but if i had to give an opinion right now , i 'd say if theresa wanted to move to california with tate , there 's a strong chance that a judge would allow it . xander : i do n't know what i 've done to upset you like this , daniel . i consider you part of my family and ... daniel : you know , this good guy act is starting to wear just a bit thin . xander : act ? daniel : you were such a troubled kid . xander : yeah , so you keep reminding me . daniel : hey , look , i really wanted to believe when you showed up in salem all polite and -- and reformed , that you had changed . but unfortunately , the more i see of you , the more i suspect that you 've just gotten good at hiding it . xander : i do n't know what i 've done to deserve this . my intentions are to do good and make my family proud . now , if i 've somehow given you the wrong impression -- [ cell phone ringing ] xander : sorry . [ sighs ] something 's come up . i guess i wo n't be buying you that drink you did n't want . perhaps we can , uh , settle this another time . daniel : well , i do n't know how much more there is to say , but sure . eric : hey , where you going ? xander : i have to put out a fire at work , but all the best in hawaii . if i do n't see you before you go , we 'll have mai tais in honolulu . eric : yeah . looks like you could use this . what was all that about ? xander : what 's going on ? did nicole finally leave her office ? navidad : no . xander : then why did you contact me ? navidad : serena 's with her . nicole : now , why would you be worried about me when obviously , you 're just worried about yourself ? serena : obviously , you do n't know what a dangerous game you 're playing with xander . nicole : what game ? serena : nicole , i know that you 're not really interested in him . you 're just pretending , hoping that he 'll help you find dirt on me . nicole : so you think this is all about you ? wow , what an ego . serena : actually , i think this is all about eric . my point is , you 're not gon na find anything on me , and if xander figures out that you 're playing him , you do n't want to find out what he might do . nicole : and what might that be ? serena : let 's just put it this way ... xander 's not a man you want to cross . he is unbalanced and unscrupulous , and he would not hesitate to hurt you . kate : this is all your doing . you turned him against me . lucas : you know what , mom , you did that all on your own . you 've had plenty of practice . kate : if we could just talk privately , i know that i -- [ cell phone rings ] kate : [ sighs ] lucas : go ahead . go ahead and answer it . you might as well . you do n't want to lose another designer , another distributor , or no , maybe even another kid . kate : okay , look , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , i have to go . adrienne : so soon ? kate : you know , i really hope for your sake that she 's worth it . lucas : she absolutely is . listen , i am so sorry . adrienne : no , no , no , no . i 'm sorry . victor : sorry about the interruption . justin : well , vic , i know we have a lot to discuss , but my flight leaves in two hours . i will call you when i get to dubai . victor : did you not understand me the first time i said it ? you are not going to dubai , or dublin or dubuque . you are staying right here . justin : i have been away from the negotiations for too long as it is . victor : i agree . that 's why you 've been replaced . justin : what ? victor : you heard me . so now you have no reason to go to dubai , other than your mistress . justin : after all the time and effort that i have put into this deal , you ca n't take me off it ! victor : i can , i would , and i did . justin : the whole deal will fall apart if i 'm not there ! victor : peterson is an even better negotiator than you are . and i 'm sure he 'll get along with olga just swimmingly . eric : you know there 's nothing going on between xander and nicole . daniel : no , it 's not just nicole . this guy is trouble . eric : why do you say that ? daniel : look , i know he 's a friend of yours , and i ca n't point to any specific thing yet , but please , please trust me . he is not who he appears to be . daniel : you know , serena said the same thing . i was a bit surprised because they seemed so close in africa . daniel : yeah , serena talked to me about that , too . eric : wait , what -- she did ? what 'd she say ? daniel : i 'm -- you know what , she probably could explain it better . why do n't you ask her ? i -- you know -- i 've -- i have had a day , and i 'm sorry . i need to go home . uh , but thank you for the -- for the drink . eric : yeah , sure . daniel : i 'll see you soon ? eric : yeah , actually ... daniel : what ? eric : you know what , i have some news , but it can wait for another time . daniel : you sure ? eric : yeah . you know what , i hope you have a better night . daniel : thank you . nicole : the only unstable person around here is you . i 'm not playing anyone . in fact , xander has been very sweet and charming . is n't he your friend ? serena : was . nicole : was , okay . all right , sure . he can be a little intense . is n't everyone ? i think he 's a great guy . serena : really ? yeah , well that great guy is having you watched as we speak . nicole : what ? come on , please . how do you know that ? serena : you 're just gon na have to trust me . nicole : [ laughs ] serena : xander is a very dangerous man . and i could n't leave town without at least trying to warn you , but i 've done my job . so please be smart and put this guy in your rearview mirror before you become another in a long line of his victims . kimberly : all right , you get some rest . i think i 'm gon na go back to ma 's , make sure she gets her dinner . theresa : and maybe book your flight home ? kimberly : somebody sounds awfully eager to get rid of me . theresa : no , mom , it 's just that i know that you have your life to get back to . kimberly : oh , so now we 're being so thoughtful . well , i get it . i will stay away from victor and brady . i will not provoke anybody . are you happy ? theresa : mom , look . i know you mean well , okay , but i -- i 'll be okay , i promise . kimberly : look how you always promise something . anne : do n't worry about her , mrs. donovan , i will keep an eagle eye on her for you . kimberly : oh . anne : yeah . kimberly : thank you , um ... anne : oh , anne -- anne milbauer , we met earlier today . head of hr , theresa 's bff . kimberly : yeah , thanks ... anne . anne : yeah . kimberly : all right , well ... i love you . i love you , i love you and i ... i ca n't wait -- you 're gon na come home , you 're gon na be in your own room , in your own bed . there 's gon na be a new baby in the house , it 's gon na be wonder -- theresa : mom . kimberly : i 'm sorry . i mean , you 've got a lot to think about at this time . i know , all right , all right . i already get the mess -- it 's time for me to -- good- bye . i 'll see you tomorrow . thank you -- both : anne . kimberly : anne , all right , thank you , anne . all right . anne : what ? back home in your own bed ? oh , my god , what 'd you change your mind , you 're leaving me ? you 're going back to the land of botox ? theresa : i ca n't . [ laughs ] aiden : all right , well ... i do have one more question for you . you said that it was theresa 's mother 's idea that she move to california . i was under the impression that they do n't get along very well . brady : they do n't . aiden : okay , well , then maybe this is all moot . maybe she 's not seriously thinking about moving . melanie : no , she said she was . aiden : i see . all right , well , look , i wish i had better news for you than i do , but we 're gon na explore all our options . in the meantime , i advise you to do everything you can to avoid a custody case , okay ? brady : all right . um , aiden , thank you for your time , i appreciate it . aiden : yeah , i wish i could do more . nice to meet you , melanie . melanie : i 'm so sorry , brady . brady : i want you to tell me exactly what theresa said to you . melanie : she said she 's still in love with you . and she does n't know how she could stand living here seeing you and i be happy and in love . brady : well , she 's just gon na have to learn , is n't she ? it 's not like you and i are just gon na ... she told you that she wants you gone , did n't she ? she said , `` melanie , i want you to go , `` is that what she said ? that -- i will call you later , okay ? melanie : brady , please , do n't -- brady : i 'll call you later . theresa : [ laughing ] anne : what is so damn funny ? theresa : oh ... i ca n't ... anne : oh , god . theresa : what 's so funny is that you , who i previously thought to be a reasonably intelligent person , would ever believe that i would move back to l.a. , where my over - bearing , highly annoying mother would definitely run my life , not to mention my kid 's . and the weather is always perfect , which would bore me senseless . anne : really , 'cause you got something against sunshine ? theresa : well , when it 's perpetual , yes . anne : and apropos of you laughing your little ass off because i was assuming you were moving back to l.a. ? now what do you think , you 're like the poster child for rational decision making ? of course i thought you would do something that nutty . you 're -- you 're , like , claim to fame is making horrifyingly stupid decisions , theresa . theresa : oh , gee , anne , that hurts . anne : and i know how sensitive you are , so i 'm just gon na add ... i 'm really relieved you 're not leaving , because you do make me laugh from time to time , and really , what 's more important in the grand scheme of things , right ? theresa : oh , well , i feel better . anne : egh , all right , enough with the schmaltzy business . so ... so , you 're mo is to make everyone think you 're moving back , which will , a , make your mother want to jump off a bridge when she finds out you 're not because she was dying to run your life . um ... or b ... more importantly , what ? hello , i 'm talking to you . can you put down your phone , please ? theresa : yeah , but , no , i 'm just checking what time it is . anne : all right , well , it 's time to answer my question . more importantly , what -- like , why -- why do you want everyone thinking that you 're moving back to the land of perpetual sunshine if you 're not ? what -- what -- what little mischief are you cooking up now , naughty girl ? theresa : brady must be going crazy now . he 's gon na be here any minute . anne : do not stonewall me , theresa donovan . theresa : oh , my god , chill out , anne milbauer . look , i will tell you everything eventually , okay , but right now i have to focus all of my energy on brady , who , as i said , is probably going insane right now and should be here any minute to read me the riot act . anne : mm - hmm . and what are you gon na tell him , pray tell ? theresa : well , i 'll handle brady when he gets here , as only i know how . lucas : listen , i have disowned my mom before , several times , in fact . and i -- i just forgot how liberating it could be . so do me a favor , you know , remind me not to let her worm her way into my life again . adrienne : lucas , i know you 're very upset . please do n't pretend that you 're not . i feel responsible . lucas : the only thing you 're responsible for is making me happier than i 've been in a very , very long time . mm . mmm . no more arguing ? adrienne : no more arguing . lucas : are we done ? adrienne : i give in , i give in . lucas : there 's the bed . adrienne : i feel it . justin : you just love to offer advice on things you know nothing about , do n't you ? do you really think keeping me here is going to magically solve all of the problems in my marriage to adrienne ? victor : that 's the least of my concerns . justin : excuse me ? victor : your son needs his father to guide him in the right direction , away from will horton . justin : so you 're keeping me here to help break up my son 's marriage ? victor : there is one other reason . kate : okay , i got your summons . what 's going on ? victor : well , i 'd like you to meet your new boss . oh , that would be you . eric : serena ? serena : hey . eric : hey . serena : eric , i 'm so glad that i ran into you . i was just on my way to your apartment . eric : hey , what 's wrong ? serena : nothing . can i stay with you tonight because i really just do n't want to be alone . eric : of course . but first , tell me why you 're lying to me . nicole : okay , calm down . serena is a nut case , everything 's gon na be fine . xander : hey , you . nicole : oh . hi , xander . i was just about to leave , actually , what are you -- what are you doing here ? xander : we 're supposed to have dinner , remember ? you did n't call , so i thought i 'd drop by . i figured you were just caught with work , but if you 're finished ... nicole : ugh , i have a -- i had a really long day . i just want to go home and crash . i hope you 're not too disappointed . xander : to be honest , i kind of am . you 're not avoiding me , are you ? serena : why do you think i 'm lying to you ? eric : well , because you 're more upset every time i see you . and please , do n't tell me you 're okay , because i can tell you 're not . serena : okay , something 's bugging me . it just -- it 's ... the move , and everything that 's going on . i -- i do n't want to talk about it right now . eric : okay . it does n't have anything to do with xander , does it ? nicole : why would i be avoiding you ? i was really looking forward to dinner . i just do n't think i 'm gon na be very good company . rain check ? xander : soon , i hope . i ran into daniel tonight , and , well , we can discuss that another time . nicole : if we must . i 'd rather ... focus on us . xander : me too . get some rest and have a good night . okay ? melanie : you 're my father ? daniel : yes . melanie : i mean , carly deprived us of each other . i do n't know how not to be angry about that . i do n't blame you anymore , mom . i know you did n't have a choice . i just wish i could have been raised by both my parents . daniel : hey , honey , how was your day ? melanie : hey ... good . daniel : what -- what 's wrong ? melanie : [ sniffles ] daniel : hey ? melanie : it 's -- everything with brady and theresa , it 's just tough . daniel : i know . look , i know you feel like you 're on the outside looking in , but you -- you are the woman brady loves . you and tate are his whole world . hey , and nothing -- nothing is gon na get in the way of that . okay ? melanie : okay . daniel : aw , baby . [ door opens ] brady : you are out of your mind if you think you 're getting away with this . theresa : i do n't know what you 're talking about -- brady : you know damn well what i 'm talking about , theresa . theresa : well -- if this is about my mother 's idea -- brady : tate is staying here in salem with me and melanie , okay ? if you want to go to california , be my guest . you can go to hell as far as i 'm concerned . [ romantic music ] kate : victor , we had an agreement . as ceo , i answer to one person : you . victor : that 's before you lost your top designer and distributor all in the first two weeks on the job . kate : so what are you doing ? are you demoting me ? victor : no , you 'll still be ceo , under the very careful supervision of justin . justin : i 'm a lawyer . i have no interest in supervising her -- victor : you work for titan industries , and at the moment , this is where you 're needed . kate : what the -- he does n't have the experience . victor : he 's had a company of his own . he knows how to make a business successful . and besides , i think he has a vested interest in destroying the competition . justin : really ? who would that be ? victor : he used to work for me . that is , until his loving mother screwed him out of his job . kate : ahh ... bu ... justin : you mean i 'll be competing with -- victor : the man that 's sleeping with your wife . now if that 's not enough incentive to make this thing work , i do n't know what is . kate : this is ridiculous . victor : i think she took that well . melanie : thank you , dad . i do n't know how i survived so long without you . and you and maggie always make me feel so loved and supported . daniel : because you are . and you wait till your little brother gets here tomorrow morning , and he sees you . he 's gon na like like , mm , all right ? melanie : i ca n't wait . daniel : yeah . melanie : i was thinking about you and chloe , when you were trying to figure out custody over parker , and as bad as things got between the two of you , you -- you guys made it work for his sake . daniel : yes and because we did , chloe and i are in a much better place . and we 're on good terms now . and neither one of us want to let anything happen to parker . learn to be happy . melanie : of course , that 's the most important part . daniel : yes -- and you . both of you . in fact , i actually got ta call chloe to work out tomorrow morning . are you gon na be okay ? melanie : yeah . daniel : yes ? melanie : yes , yes . thank you for talking with me . daniel : good to hear . all right , you will be okay . okay ? yes ? melanie : yes . daniel : all right . love you , baby . melanie : i will be okay . i 'll be fine . i know what i have to do . theresa : i ca n't believe you just said that to me . you told the mother of your child to go to hell ? nice . brady : stop , theresa . i thought we were on the same page when it came to putting tate first . theresa : we are , we are . brady : okay , well a boy needs his father . you 're not gon na take my son away from me , do you understand me ? theresa : i never said that i would . brady : and melanie is going to stay in my life , end of discussion , do you got that ? theresa : i got it . okay . brady : okay . anne : wow , way to go , toots . you had papa bear eating right out of the palm of your pretty little hand . theresa : that is exactly how i expected brady to react . anne : oh , really ? theresa : mm - hmm . anne : you thought he would now hate you so much that smoke was coming out of his nostrils , and if he was n't such a gentleman , he would have surely rung your neck ? theresa : well , he 's been just as angry at me before . more . and he always found it in his heart to forgive me , anne . and now we share a child , so ... anne : oh , please , honey . plenty of people manage to share a child and want to kill each other , all at the same time . theresa : you know what , your cynicism is not going to phase me in the least , anne , because i am not giving up . no way , no how . this is n't over until tate and i win . serena : why do you think it 's about xander ? eric : when i saw daniel earlier and he said something -- serena : you know what , eric , i will explain everything to you later . for now , i -- i just want to be with you . i do n't want to think about xander , or daniel , or the rest of the world . eric : okay . just trying to help . serena : i know . if you really want to help , you can take me home right now and make love to me all night long , 'cause that 's what i really need . [ chuckles ] eric : you drive a hard bargain . serena : thank you for understanding . nicole : if xander really is watching me , i mean , i ca n't go to daniel 's . is he as dangerous as serena says he is , or is she just trying to scare me ? oh , my god . what have i gotten myself into ? navidad : did you find out what serena said to nicole ? xander : no . so keep following nicole . i need to know what she 's up to at all times . one wrong move on her part and i 'm prepared to end this game for good .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : abby , honey . hi , sweetie . do you think you could help frankie with the burgers out on the grill ? abby : why ? because i 'm the only one who knows dad 's secret recipe ? he gave that to me and only me when he knew he was gon na die . frankie : well , abby ... i 'm sure he left the recipe to you because he trusted you to carry on the tradition , so what do you say ? you want to give me a hand ? abby : no , i 'm not going to . jennifer : abigail , please . abby : mom , what is wrong with you ? do n't you even remember what today is ? it 's not just memorial day . it was your anniversary . how could you just forget the day you married dad ?

[ scene_break ] jennifer : how can you even say such a thing ? how could you think that i could forget your father 's and my anniversary ? frankie : actually , your mom 's been very upset . she was in tears all night . she could n't sleep . abby : and you would know because you share her bed . jennifer : abigail ! in case you have n't noticed , we have guests in our home . alice : abigail , i want to tell you something . abby : what is it , great gram ? alice : your mother loved your father very much . you know that .. but she ca n't be expected to spend the rest of her life in mourning . maggie : alice is right . darling , all of us here have thought at one time or another that we 've lost or thought we lost someone that 's very dear to us . but we 've grieved for them . we 've missed them , and we always will . that 's part of what this day is all about -- remembering the ones that we 've loved and lost . and part of honoring their memory is honoring their wishes . jennifer : and one of your dad 's wishes , abby ... was that i move on with my life and i find happiness again with frankie . abby : i know that . i know it 's what dad wanted . it 's just so hard 'cause i miss him , especially with it being your anniversary and all . i 'm sorry . jennifer : it 's okay . [ scene_break ] frankie : hey , ma , you want to give me a hand with the brady burgers ? they 're almost as good as jack 's . caroline : well , roman likes them . sure , i 'll do what i can . abby : no offense , mrs. brady , but no hamburger in the world can compare to my dad 's . i 'll help frankie . it 's what dad would have wanted . jennifer : yeah , it is . abby : do n't even think about stealing his recipe . frankie : i would n't dream of it . [ laughs ] abby : all right , let 's get started . frankie : yeah . wish me luck .

[ scene_break ] marlena : lexie , why would you say you 're to blame for what alex did to me ? you could n't possibly be at fault . lexie : i 'm the one who recommended him . i contacted him and brought him right back to salem , right back into your life . john : you did n't know the man was a lunatic . and rather than trying to help marlena , he ended up being a threat to her . abe : and to you ... which reminds me . the charges pending against you in connection with lois banks ' death have been dismissed . john : i 'm glad to hear that . but i 'm really glad that alex north wo n't be around to hurt anybody else . [ scene_break ] alex : you are leaving now , even if i have to physically eject you . lexie : i 'll be back to check on her again in the morning . alex : oh , no , that wo n't be necessary . your services are no longer required . lexie : that 's up to marlena . alex : no , that 's up to me , and you will respect my wishes or have you forgotten -- i know your nasty , little secret , and would n't it be a shame if that came up now , hmm ? i mean , you cheating on such a fine man as your husband with that young , cocky -- lexie : you son of -- alex : i would not do that if i were you . [ scene_break ] lexie : i hate to say it , but i 'm glad that monster is dead . he is dead , is n't he ? john : oh , yeah , he 's dead . abe : do you know that for a fact ? i 've been in touch with the morgan island police chief , and they still have n't found the body . marlena : oh , my gosh . is it possible he 's not dead ? is it possible ? he 'll just come after us all over again . [ scene_break ] chelsea : so , what exactly happened when you saw hope and patrick together ? billie : chelsea , that 's enough questioning for now . why do n't you go on to the barbecue , okay ? chelsea : what about you guys ? are n't you coming ? billie : uh , i do n't think your dad 's really in the mood for a party right now . but you go ahead , and i will meet you there later . and remember what we talked about . chelsea : oh , do n't worry about me . i will be fine . [ coughs ] [ scene_break ] bo : all right , what happened with her while i was away ? billie : oh , she was just , you know , acting up a little bit , but it 's okay . it 's not important . tell me what happened on the island . bo : your buddy lockhart turned out to be some kind of freakin ' hero ... again . even john was backing him up . billie : john ? wait a minute . what does john have to do with any of this ? bo : oh , that 's a pretty long story . billie : we got time . bo : alex north and marlena were having their honeymoon on the island . alex was drugging her . john showed up to save her . billie : and how did patrick turn out to be a hero ? bo : well , presumably , he was working with the island police and somehow helped capture north . billie : but you do n't believe that . bo : i 'd never trust that son of a bitch . good thing is , is that marlena 's got her memory back and she and john are together again . billie : that 's great . that 's fantastic . see , at least somebody got a happy ending , right ? bo : oh , yeah . they got some stuff to work out , i 'm sure , but they are together , unlike hope and me . according to her , we 're finished . [ scene_break ] hope : you 're hoping you 'll be pregnant by tomorrow . i - i - i - i do n't understand . i missed something . bonnie : let me explain . mimi : mother . bonnie : betsy ross to you . mimi : what are you doing ? bonnie : look , i hope you do n't mind that max and me just drop by like that , but when mimi told me that she and shawn were coming over to welcome you home , i just had to do likewise . after all , we 're family now . hope : right , right . bonnie , thank you . bonnie : aw , you 're welcome . so , how does it feel to know that your son 's gon na be a daddy ? oh , my god , speaking of sons . patrick ! my handsome boy ! oh , honey ! when the heck did you get back ? what are you doing here ? why did n't you call me ? patrick : mom , it 's a long story . we 'll talk about it later , okay ? hope : bonnie , excuse me . i 'm just still trying to find out what exactly is going on here . shawn d. : well , we 've been trying to do in vitro fertilization . it turns out it worked . we now have a pre - embryo that 's getting implanted tomorrow . bonnie : so , it took ? mimi : yeah . yeah , it took ! hope : that is the best news i have heard in an awfully , awfully long time . i am so happy for both of you . shawn d. : well , we 're pretty happy ourselves . hope : what made you consider in vitro in the first place ? shawn d. : it 's actually an interesting story . we were on our honeymoon -- well , it was n't much of one -- up at the green mountain lodge , and we met the bartender . hope : bartender ? mimi : yeah , she overheard us talking and then she shared her experience , and it got us thinking , and we called lexie right away and made an appointment . shawn d. : turns out that we 're excellent candidates . mimi : yeah , well -- which i would have known if i had gone to any of my follow - up appointments when i first found out that i could n't get pregnant . [ scene_break ] bonnie : okay , baby , let 's have it . patrick : have what ? bonnie : what is with you and hope ? you went after her , did n't you ? you tracked her down like i told you to . patrick : no , i did not go after hope . the whole thing was a huge coincidence . she ended up in my bungalow on morgan island because the rental agency accidentally -- bonnie : hold the phone . you have a bungalow on morgan island ? why do n't i know this ? they have a big casino there , do n't they ? patrick : yeah , but that 's not why hope went . she needed some time to get alone , be by herself , get away from everything that happened here . bonnie : so i 'm guessing you helped her forget her troubles ? patrick : mom -- bonnie : let 's see -- an unhappy , soon - to - be divorcée on a tropical island paradise with a sweet , sensitive , hunky single guy . do n't tell me you did n't take advantage of that opportunity . your own little private area . [ scene_break ] john : do n't worry . alex north will not be coming back . no way in hell anybody could have survived that fall . his body probably just washed out to sea , and right about now , he 's giving some poor shark indigestion . marlena : oh , john . john : that 's what he deserves . alex , not the shark . lexie : [ laughing ] john . marlena : you 're so bad . john : now , let 's say we go inside . everyone 's gon na be real excited to see you , the real you . in fact , they 've missed you almost as much as i have . lexie : john 's right , marlena . we 've all missed you . marlena : okay . okay , okay . let 's go . john : it 's gon na be all right . you 'll see . marlena : uh - huh . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] belle : mom . hey . oh , my gosh , you 're back . marlena : how are you ? belle : well , i 'm fine , but , um , what 's going on ? i thought you were on your honeymoon . why are you here with dad ? where 's alex ? marlena : he -- he -- john : he 's no longer a problem . your mother 's got her memory back . she 's home with us for good . belle : mom ? marlena : it 's true . it 's true . it 's me . i missed you so much . belle : i 've missed you , too . this is great . philip : someone just woke up from -- oh , my . look who 's here . belle : oh , there 's someone that i want to introduce you to , even though you 've -- well , you 've met her before , but not when you were ... marlena : myself . belle : right . so , this is our daughter , claire . marlena : oh , my goodness . may i -- may i ... belle : of course . marlena : oh . oh . claire : [ fusses ] marlena : oh , my goodness . oh , my goodness . i feel like i 'm seeing her for the first time . john : she 's beautiful , just like you and her mom . claire : ma ma ma ma . john : i need a beer . philip : you and me both . [ scene_break ] marlena : i 'm sorry that i was n't there for you when she was so sick . belle : mom , it 's fine . claire 's okay now , and so are you , and that 's all that matters . marlena : and what about you ? are you happy ? belle : me ? yes , i am so happy . and shawn and mimi are happy , too , and they 're trying to have their own baby through in vitro fertilization . marlena : oh ! well , good . nothing brings two people closer together than sharing a child . belle : i know . that 's exactly how it is between philip and me .. claire has brought us so much closer together . marlena : it 's really okay ? belle : everything 's wonderful , especially now that you 're back . [ scene_break ] jennifer : john , this is such incredible news about marlena . i still ca n't get over it . john : neither can i . does n't seem real , does it ? jennifer : no . how did all this happen ? john : i 'll fill you in later . right now , i want marlena to forget about the nightmare and just enjoy being back with her family and friends . jennifer : i understand . listen , frankie was just about to put the burgers on . can i get anyone something to drink ? [ doorbell rings ] i wonder who that could be . abby : i 'll get it . jennifer : thank you , honey . [ scene_break ] abby : hey , chelse . i thought you were n't coming . i love your hair . chelsea : oh , why , thank you . um , i was n't going to , but i actually suddenly felt like i was in a party mood . abby : because of max ? i heard he won the race . chelsea : no , actually , because my dad just got back from morgan island . things did n't actually go over so well with him and hope . they 're still getting a divorce , which means he 's still gon na be on my side , and the best part is that hope did n't even come back with him , so she 's not gon na be there to testify against me . abby : are you sure ? chelsea : i 'm positive . so , so far , everything is going perfectly , so let 's just try to have a good time today . max is on his way home , and you can call josh , and the four of us can go hang out or something . [ scene_break ] frankie : i do n't think that 's such a good idea . i mean , chelsea , you remember what we talked about ? you need to keep a low profile , curtail the partying . jennifer : that goes same for you , abigail . abby : mom , i 'm not on trial . jennifer : well , i do n't care . the pictures of you and josh on the computer were just as bad . abby : we were just kissing . jennifer : it looked like you were doing more than that . can you imagine if your father would have seen those pictures of you ? abby : well , he did n't , and he obviously never will . and for the future , i 'd appreciate it if you did n't use dad 's memories to try and manipulate me into staying in your house and having no life . [ scene_break ] dr. butler : well , with any luck , jack , by fourth of july , you 're gon na be back home with the family , manning the grill like you always have . now , please , get some rest . you need it . frankie : hey , jack . jack : oh , frankie . frankie : what do you say ? jack : oh , that sounds great . yeah , all right . thank you . listen , thank you for hanging around here today . frankie : no problem . jack . jack : what ? frankie : your hand . your hand , jack . jack : that 's weird . i thought i smelled something burning . frankie : you did n't feel that ? jack : that 's how it all started . next thing i knew , i was dying , pushing jennifer and frankie back together again . now , what if she has fallen in love with him ? what right do i have to pop in there and ... just tell him to go away ? can i really do that to jennifer ? [ scene_break ] patrick : mom , stop , okay ? i was n't there to take advantage of any opportunity . hope 's my friend . i did everything i could to try to get her to go back to bo and work things out . bonnie : what are you , crazy ? what if she 'd taken your advice ? she obviously did n't , did she ? patrick : no . bonnie : well , thank god . because you became more than just her friend , right ? something happened . patrick : mom , lower your voice . bonnie : i will if you just tell me the truth . patrick : all right , fine . yeah , something happened . bonnie : [ laughs ] patrick : but not the way you think . bonnie : i knew it . oh , honey . i 'm so happy for you . oh , how perfect is this ? mimi gets hitched to a brady - horton with kiriakis dough . and meanwhile , you hook yourself up with yet another horton due to come into big bucks . this is like a dream come true . patrick : mom , i told you . it 's not like that . besides , hope and bo will probably work things out . bonnie : then it 's your job to make sure that does n't happen . [ scene_break ] hope : anyway , i asked jennifer to give all of zack 's things to the horton foundation . shawn d. : that 's nice , mom . it 's gon na go to a family who really needs it . hope : yeah , you 're right . bonnie : okay , kids . we better get a move on , get over to jennifer and frankie 's before all those burgers get scarfed up . hope : uh , yeah . well , you know what ? why do n't all of you go ? i 'm just not really up for a party right now . shawn d. : mother . hope : mother ? shawn d. : gran 's going to be there , aunt maggie , uncle mickey .. i know jen would love to see you , and i think it would be good if you went out and saw them . hope : okay , maybe you 're right . but just for a little while . bonnie : great ! great ! let 's go , then . come on , you , too , patrick . uncle sam , we need you to go . come on , baby . come on . [ scene_break ] billie : do you really believe that ? do you really believe that there is absolutely no chance of you and hope working this out ? bo : apparently , i did n't tell her what she needed to know when she needed to know . billie : what do you mean ? bo : she found out that chelsea 's trial date had been moved up , and then she realized i did n't tell her that right away . so she took that as me taking chelsea 's side against her . you know , i tried to tell her that we had much more important things to talk about , but it did n't matter . she went ballistic , and that 's why i did n't fly home with her on john 's jet . billie : what ? she 's here in salem ? bo : she came home today . billie : when you said that she did n't fly home with you , i thought that maybe she was still on the island . bo : no , no . she 's here ... and just itching to testify at chelsea 's trial . [ scene_break ] jack : i do want to live . [ sighs ] i hope that i 'm cured . but as much as i love jennifer ... can i really ... ask her or expect her to forget about frankie after everything i did to push them together ? [ sighs ] she still thinks i 'm dead . maybe it is better if i stay that way . [ scene_break ] jennifer : abigail , that is not true . i am not using your father to manipulate you . i am asking you to ask yourself , what would your father want from you ? what would he expect from his only daughter ? abby : he 'd want me to be happy , mom . frankie : he 'd want your mother to be happy , too , abby . maggie : well , j.j. just woke up , so i 'm gon na take claire upstairs to play together . belle : okay , bye , sweetie . i 'll come check on you later . marlena : have so much fun . maggie : bye - bye . marlena : [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] john : hey , marine . philip : yo . john : i 'm glad you 're here . philip : i 'm in trouble . what 's up ? john : i want to thank you . philip : you want to thank me for what ? john : i want to thank you for taking care of my daughter . i know , she 's all grown up , but i still worry about her , especially since i have n't been around here much lately . bottom line is , i felt like she was in really good hands . obviously , you are making her very happy .. philip : you do n't have to thank me , john . plus i know she would do the same thing for me . as far as you not being around , we understand . i 'm just glad you two are back together -- you and marlena . you are together , right ? john : well , i hope so , philip . i hope so . [ scene_break ] belle : i can not tell you how excited i am that you and dad are back together . i knew you were gon na remember someday how much you loved him . marlena : yeah . belle : mom ... is something wrong ? marlena : um ... i remembered what caused my amnesia . belle : right , you fell down the stairs . marlena : i lost a baby ... a baby that was fathered by roman , not by your dad . belle : what are you saying ? marlena : when i realized how complicated my past was , i begin to see how complicated my future with john is going to be . [ scene_break ] billie : bo , is n't there any way that you can talk hope out of testifying against chelsea ? bo : no , she has n't softened one bit . she 's determined to put chelsea in prison . you know , i hope the two of them do n't run into each other . god knows what would happen . billie : bo , chelsea just went to jennifer 's house for her barbecue . bo : oh , man . hope 's gon na be there . billie : of course she will . hurry up , i 'm driving . [ scene_break ] chelsea : abby , please do not tell me you 're gon na let your mom spoil our fun . she and frankie worry way too much . abby : you 're telling me . you know what ? we 're gon na get out of here the first chance we get . i 'll be right back . chelsea : okay . doorbell rings ] oh , that 's probably max . [ scene_break ] mimi : baby , it 's not meant to be . shawn d. : i do n't understand . mimi : after what i 've done , i do n't see how god could bless us with a child . [ scene_break ] e.j . : i 'm e.j . sami : i 'm sami . [ scene_break ] frankie : hope will show bo the e - mail , and then they 're gon na trace everything back to you .

[ scene_break ] daniel : put them up , gentlemen . dr. carrington : all right . [ scene_break ] nicole : uh , blah , blah . uh , so , you and sami both signed the annulment papers . e.j . : mm - hmm . she 's probably mailing them to the judge as we speak . what ? nicole : well , i 'm just a little bit confused how that would lead you to conclude that samantha will be yours . excuse me . can we get another ... round here ? okay , go on . e.j . : okay , well , i 'm just gon na simply show her that i 'm willing to give up on her , that i 'm quite happy to let the annulment go through . nicole : but you 're not . e.j . : of course i 'm not . are you kidding ? no , i 'm gon na be the perfect father to my son . i 'm gon na be the perfect gentleman to her and the best friend she could ever want to have . nicole : and in the end ? e.j . : and in the end , she 's gon na end up in my bed and lucas will be left outside . nicole : well , that sounds absolutely perfect . cheers . oh , you know what ? um ... i mean , i hate to be a spoilsport here , but how exactly do you plan on doing that ? [ scene_break ] steve : there we go . kayla : joe 's nursery . you really are too much . steve : well , i 'm not too much . i just knew that you wanted the baby 's room together before he comes home , so that 's what all this is . so , here we go now . you read to me and i 'll put everything together , okay ? kayla : this is too much . you found this place . you bought all this furniture . steve : it 's not all here yet . kayla : and now all this stuff for joe 's nursery ? what are you -- superman ? steve : super patchman , maybe . kayla : [ chuckles ] steve : no , seriously . our daughter helped and the rest of our family , your family . kayla : thank you . steve : you know i 'd do anything for you and our new baby boy . so , here we go . you read to me . is there a problem ? kayla : yeah , super patchman . unless you read swedish , we have a big problem .

[ laughter ] nicole : okay . wow . e.j . : i 'm just gon na show samantha that i 'm a lot more of an adult than lucas is . i ca n't take her away from him , so i 'm gon na have to get her to come to me . nicole : well , you can always leave a trail of dog food . e.j . : easy , okay ? nicole : what ? e.j . : what do you mean , `` what `` ? stop making snippets at my wife . she is still my wife , okay ? nicole : okay . sorry . uh , excuse me . could you get him another before he gets too serious ?

[ indistinct conversations ] nick : ohh . dean robbins : yes . folks , i think nick might be a little embarrassed , but , really , he should not be , because the university is very proud of him . and he should be very proud of himself for everything he 's done . folks , his concepts and theoretical applications -- they 're just nothing short of genius , really . and now he 's gon na have the opportunity to put those concepts and those theories to use -- practically . nick , maybe you 'd like to say something ? maggie : come on , speech ! speech ! speech ! chelsea : come on , nick . bo : yeah , come on . do n't be embarrassed . do n't be shy . [ scene_break ] steve : okay . what 's next ? kayla : um , it says you need to use a , um -- a luftig .

[ scene_break ] dean robbins : i 'm telling you , mr. brady , this kid is bright . some of his theorems went beyond even what i know . bo : you do n't have to tell me , really . dean robbins : how he ever arrived at some of those calculations , it 's just incredible . nick : well , the truth is i had a little help . bo : you had help ? nick : yeah , with some of them , and because i had help , maybe i should n't be entitled to the funding . [ scene_break ] steve : yeah . i took a little break and put everything else together . i guess i have to finish the swing now . kayla : wish i could help you . steve : well , despite the language barrier , your directions were good . kayla : you know , you could have just maybe ... steve : i could have just what ? kayla : nothing . steve : no , no , no . not nothing . you were gon na say i could have just paid extra and had them put it together , right ? kayla : well , you know , it 's just that those assembly guys -- you know , they just know the difference been a luftig and a svtig . i mean , that 's what they do . steve : i 'm not giving up . i can finish what i started . kayla : i never said you could n't . steve : yeah . we 'll see . [ exhales deeply ] well ... believe it or not ... i think i 've almost got it . just one more thing . shall we test it ? kayla : okay . steve : that 's all . there we go . see ? [ laughs ] i did it . [ scene_break ] dean robbins : so , you 're saying you had help with some of your calculations ? nick : yes , sir , i did . dean robbins : that was very smart . it 's a well - known fact einstein ran his theories and his equations by some of his colleagues . nick : but the final work is n't my own , sir . bo : come on , man . most of us check our math with a calculator . nick : this is a bit different , bo . dean robbins : nonsense , son . your work is exemplary , and it deserves to be celebrated . [ footsteps approaching ] and i think we can celebrate it right now . maggie : there you go . dean robbins : thank you . ladies and gentlemen , to nick fallon -- an educator , an innovator , and a man who will change the future . maggie : hear , hear ! bo : to nick .

[ scene_break ] e.j . : all right , i 'll bite . how would you make samantha jealous ? nicole : well ... lucas walked in on you and sami in bed together , so why not let sami walk in on you and another woman ? i know her . she would be so jealous . e.j . : but where would we find a woman to sleep with me ? nicole : hmm , i do n't know . e.j . : it 's tough , right ? nicole : yeah , i mean , she would have to be able to get under sami 's skin . e.j . : somebody samantha hated . nicole : yes , someone beautiful . e.j . : someone stunningly beautiful . nicole : mm - hmm . someone you would n't mind being in bed with . e.j . : i 'm flattered . nicole : oh , you think it 's me ? e.j . : oh , oh , oh . [ laughs ] i think the lady doth protest a little too much . [ laughs ] nicole : okay , you got me . but who better to give sami a taste of her own medicine ? [ scene_break ] bo : hey , excuse me , nick . do n't mean to steal your thunder , but i 'd like to propose a toast to maggie . maggie : me ? bo : yes , you . thanks for being responsible and doing the right thing for the environment by becoming a certified green restaurant . you are leading the charge against global warming , and you 're showing your patrons that by supporting you , they 're supporting and safeguarding their environment . to maggie horton . maggie : oh , thank you . bo : yeah , yeah . maggie : thank you very much . can i just say one little thing ? thank you , bo . to nick -- to my brilliant young nephew , who is most deserving of this grant . bo : yeah . to nick ... again .

[ exhales deeply ] victor : we kidnapped stefano in retaliation for the attempts on philip 's life . kate : what else ? victor : they took stephanie . kate : why ? victor : negotiating ploy . kate : yeah , well , philip is just dating her . it 's not like she 's a kiriakis . victor : oh , my god . you do n't know . he proposed to her . they 're engaged . kate : wh -- well , he did n't even tell me he was gon na ask her . oh , my god . and the dimeras found out . victor : apparently . so we brokered an exchange . we let stefano go . kate : so stephanie 's safe ? victor : no . kate : oh , god . victor : the dimeras ' guy decided to go rogue , so he kept stephanie . we 're not sure why . we do n't know if he 's holding out for a bigger payday or something else . kate : `` something else `` ? do you think she 's hurt ? victor : we do n't know . kate : oh , my god . victor -- [ exhales deeply ] what about philip ? where 's philip ? victor : [ exhales deeply ] well , all hell broke lose once brady went to bo . the police tried to do a sting down on the pier . philip took off , so now he 's on the run -- all because brady had to be a hero . kate : well , he probably did what he thought was right . it was because of your -- [ sighs ] it was because of you -- because you 're a maniac . just -- philip has been through so much -- so much . i ca n't believe he has to deal with this now . victor : kate , we 're doing everything we can . kate : well , you need to do more . victor : we will , but you have to promise me something . daniel and lucas ca n't know anything about the kidnapping or about what 's going on . kate : daniel is the one who told me about philip . he already knows . victor : he knows what everybody else knows . once the police got involved , the news went public . kate : well , thank you for the lecture about criminal journalism , all right ? you just need to find stephanie , and you need to find philip , and you need to clean this mess up . victor : well , you just have to promise me you 're gon na be discreet . kate : do you even need to ask ? chloe : so , what about the night that you relapsed ? lucas : i remember something that aunt maggie told me . it 's all coming back to me . maggie : lucas , whatever happened that night -- it 's in the past . do n't you think it 's high time you let it go and start focusing on the future ? chloe : yeah , i - i agree with maggie . [ cellphone ringing ] oh . lucas : well , who is it ? chloe : uh , daniel . sorry . daniel , hi . what a surprise . daniel : yeah . i 'm looking for lucas . uh , his cell keeps going to voice mail . is he around ? chloe : oh , yeah . he 's right here . hang on . hey , uh , he wants to talk to you . lucas : hey , daniel , what 's up ? daniel : hey . it 's about philip . victor wants you at the mansion , as soon as you can . lucas : i 'm on my way . thanks for letting me know . chloe : what 's going on ? lucas : victor wants to talk about my brother . come on . let 's go . chloe : y - you know what ? i have a couple things to do first , but i 'll just meet you there . lucas : all right . fine . we will talk later . maggie : sure . chloe : maggie , thank you . maggie : um , i would n't if i were you . chloe : `` would n't `` ? maggie : thank me . it seems that lucas is starting to remember , chloe . it 's just a matter of time before he learns the truth -- that you betrayed him ... with daniel . mia : why would you even say that ? i 'm not going to be seeing will anymore -- says who ? jamie : mia , come on . mia : no , you come on . i am not the same girl i was a year ago . jamie : fine . i get that . mia : and will and i are just getting to know each other . jamie : all right . all right . would you shut up and let me talk ? my lease is up on the apartment . travis and i are leaving town . mia : what ? when did you decide this ? jamie : when he lost his job and could n't get another one -- not in salem , anyway . so either you find yourself a new place to live ... or you move back in with your mother . your choice . chloe : maggie , he ca n't find out about daniel and me . i wo n't let it happen . i mean , i made a promise to god that i 'd give up daniel if lucas lived . maggie : chloe , i know you 've been loyal to lucas since you made this deal with god , but it does n't change what happened before . you cheated on lucas when you were engaged to him . now , if he finds out ... chloe : he 'll leave me . maggie : well , let 's be positive here . it has n't happened yet . chloe : you know , it 's just a matter of time before all this blows up in my face . maggie : no , no , no , no . no , not necessarily . look , the one thing that we know is that kate loves her son . she wants to see him happy . and if he 's happy with you -- and i think that he is -- she 's not gon na risk upsetting lucas , potentially losing him , just so she can tell him what happened . chloe : i hope you 're right . and i really pray that lucas does n't remember . maggie : pray hard . kate : hey , baby . lucas : hey , mom . i 'm so glad you 're back . kate : you know about philip , right ? lucas : yeah . yeah , i do . i 'm sorry you had to come home to that . kate : [ exhales deeply ] lucas : how was london ? how 's billie doing ? kate : well , the , uh , the rehab is intense , but , um , chelsea is with her pretty much around the clock , and the doctors say that she 's going to make a -- make a full recovery . lucas : good . it 's good news . kate : yeah . oh , sweetie .

melanie : you know , the reason i 'm `` doing this `` is because i am a human being . i care about my fellow man . everybody thinks i 'm so shallow and insensitive , and i do n't understand why , because i am not ! if philip and stephanie want to be together , then that 's fine . if he really loves her , who am i to stand in her way , so i 'm trying to do the right thing . shoot me . i 'm kidding . do n't -- do n't shoot me . owen : i understand your motives , but it 's too late . you ca n't help her now . melanie : what do you mean ? owen : it 's over for you two . i hate these glasses ! now , is that box filled in ? is `` cremated `` filled in , or is that just a big , fat ink blot ? ! oh , god . i 'm gon na have to wait till the family contacts me . until such time ... i 'm gon na store this stiff in a drawer . you just wait for owen . philip : [ thinking ] it looks like i finally caught a break . victor : well , what the hell are you doing here ? chloe : mm . hello to you , too . where 's lucas ? victor : the invitation was n't extended to include the village slut . chloe : [ sighs ] i am here to support my husband , and if you do n't like it , you can take it up with him . lucas : there you are . i thought i heard your voice . what are you doing ? where are you going ? chloe : i just need a minute alone . lucas : what did you do ? what did you say to her ? victor : nothing . i just told her she was always welcome in my home . lucas : yeah . kate : i should n't have left salem . chelsea was with billie . i should have waited to go to london . victor : no , you needed to be with billie . it was the right thing to do . kate : oh , god , victor . we have to find philip . we have to find philip before it 's too late . philip : [ grunts ] [ thinking ] think , philip . all you have to do is unzip this thing from the inside and you 're out of here . then you find stephanie . come on . come on . come on , come on , come on . come on . stephanie : [ groaning ] victor : the reason i 've assembled the family , as i 'm sure you 've all assumed , is to discuss the situation with philip . i know you 're all concerned , but i have to ask you to stay calm and to stay out of it . we 're handling the situation internally , which means no police . chloe : um , should n't brady be here ? victor : do you have a question , chloe ? chloe : uh , yeah . i 'm just wondering why brady is n't here . victor : my grandson is dead to me . lucas : what ? why ? victor : well , let 's just say that he made an unfortunate decision , and i ca n't afford any of those -- personal or professional . that 's all i have to say for now . daniel : victor ... i know you 're upset with brady for whatever ... victor : just stay the hell out of this , will you , daniel ? daniel : no . no . i care about this family , victor . victor : do you ? daniel : i 'm your godson . you have taken very good care of me . victor : and i noticed the way you 've repaid me . daniel : what does that mean ?

are you okay ? brady : yeah . yeah . i 'll live , i think . owen : sorry i had to hit you , mr. black , but you stuck your nose where it does n't belong , sir . melanie : he 's got her . he 's got stephanie . he 's probably hiding her in the funeral home . brady : all right , listen . listen , man . why do n't we talk about this , all right ? owen : no more talking . i got to get rid of the two of before anyone sees you . come on . get up . let 's move . brady : take it easy . owen : come on . let 's go . let 's go . move it . melanie : i - i need by pur -- owen : now . this way . lucas : you know what , mom ?

anybody i know ? will : i doubt it . lucas : why would you bring them here ? it must be somebody you want to impress . will : `` impress `` ? lucas : yeah -- impress -- you know , like a girl -- like the girl who was at your baseball game -- that girl . mia : `` go back home and -- `` why would i want to live with my mother ?

[ door opening ] [ scene_break ] sami : so i did n't just lose you after what happened with ej . i lost my son , too . rafe : well , i doubt that . sami : when he was younger , we were practically best friends , and -- and after everything that happened , we were so far apart . but today , i thought we were really making progress . i mean , you know , we were really talking about stuff , and then all of a sudden , he had to rush off and go see ej because -- it just made me feel like ej is more important to him than i am . what ? rafe : listen , i can see why ej is will 's top priority right now , that 's all . sami : how can you even say that ? rafe : what do you mean , how can i say that ? because ej has been his champion for months , has n't he ? sami : yeah , but i would 've been if he 'd given me the chance . rafe : well , sure , but i 'm just telling you how he sees it . sami : well , he should n't see it that way . i 'm his mother and ej 's just his boss . rafe : listen , i 'm not taking sides here . i 'm just suggesting that maybe you should ask yourself why things keep falling apart for you and the people you supposedly love . sami : are we still talking about will ? rafe : i 'm pretty much talking about everyone who 's tried to love you . sami : okay . it 's been awesome catching up with you . thank you so much for investing so much of your precious time -- rafe : are you serious right now ? you asked me , okay ? i 'm just trying to give you an honest answer . sami : yeah , and i pour my heart out to you , and what ? that gets me nothing . rafe : really , nothing ? okay . sami : so thank you and good - bye . rafe : oh , great . it 's been great . sami : i will tell the kids that you stopped by . rafe : please do .

at the town square , abe saw ej . abe thought ej was with lexie . ej told abe that lexie was tired so he left . ej said lexie wanted him to do something for abe . ej said lexie wanted him to resign . abe thought it was because lexie thought he would n't have time to grieve if he were working . abe did n't believe that would keep him from grieving the loss of the love of his life . abe said he would never let ej do it . sami let will know that it was n't his fault that she and rafe broke up . she reminded him that she slept with ej . she said it was n't as if will told rafe . when will did n't say anything , she asked if he did . will admitted that he set it up for rafe to hear him telling someone about it . he said he did n't have a choice because stefano made him do it . he said stefano was going to break up ej and nicole anyway so that would have killed two birds with one stone . will said he agreed with stefano that rafe had a right to know . sami said stefano got the job done without getting his hands dirty . will said stefano threatened to go to the police that he shot ej . she asked why he did n't come to her . he said he was n't talking to her . he did n't know what she would do . she said she could have helped him . she was going to help him . she said she knew how to handle stefano . will got angry with her when she made it about herself . she said she was n't and she was going to help him . he said he had to take care of himself . he left to make things right with ej . at the hospital , nicole was nervous about the paternity test . she was hopeful when ej was n't there , but he showed up . ej was n't in a good mood . nicole made a smart remark and apologized to him . she thought he was upset because of lexie . he told her if she were sorry , she would n't be pretending that rafe was the father of her baby . ej demanded that daniel get the test done . nicole wanted him to wait . ej told her that there was no way out of this . he told her this gave him everything he needed to have her declared as an unfit mother when he filed for sole custody on the grounds that she tried to deny him his paternal rights . he warned her that he was going to make sure the child was brought up a dimera in every way .

[ scoffs ] you 're the same guy that kicked in her door . have you been drinking , sir ? john : no , i have n't been drinking ! and i 've got ta go , so if you 'll excuse me -- [ sighs ] it 's not gon na happen . kristen : his car is out front . i know he 's here . oh , my god , just to be able to tell him how much i love him . sir , we 're gon na check with the front desk and see if ms . dimera lodged a complaint . john : listen , pal , this is far too important to be held -- it 's not your decision , sir . you 'll leave when we say so . john : leave when you say so . damn it , brady , come on , kid . pick up your phone . [ phone vibrating ] kristen : brady ! [ heart monitor beeping ] sami : gabi is totally wiped out , but i think we can still take a peek at the baby . adrienne : i think so . [ giggling ] gabi : i 'm -- i 'm awake . adrienne : oh , oh , sweetie . how you doing ? gabi : i 'm okay . um , rafe -- why does -- no one tells me anything about rafe . sami : oh , i went and checked and they said that he 's fine . he 's actually stable . adrienne : you know what ? when you 're feeling better , we 'll get you a wheelchair , we 'll ride over to see him . how 's that sound ? gabi : thank you . adrienne : okay . sami : in the meantime , would it be okay if we just took a peek at arianna grace ? gabi : yeah . [ giggling ] sami : um ... gabi : mm ? sami : the baby 's not here . gabi : what ? oh , she 's supposed to be here . wait -- no -- where 's my baby ? [ heart monitor beeping ] gabi : no , no , she 's -- she 's supposed to be here . wh -- where 's my -- where is she ? adrienne : no , no , oh , my god . sami : you know what ? she 's probably just at the nursery . adrienne : exactly , they probably took her while you were sleeping , sweetheart . no , just relax , calm down . sami : gabi , just calm -- hey , hey . adrienne : shh . sami : it happens all the time at hospitals , gabi . maxine : what do you need , gabi ? gabi : my baby is gone ! sami : she 's not gone , she 's just not here in the bassinet , so maybe -- gabi : i need you to find my baby , right now ! john : damn it , brady . come on , kid , call me . look , guys , i 've got ta go . we need clearance from the front desk . john : you ca n't keep me here ! roman : maybe , maybe not . john : [ sighs ] roman : when my plane landed , there was a report of a disturbance here . thought i 'd check it out personally since the name kristen dimera came up . brady : who are you ? sami : i 'm sure arianna is fine . maxine : odds are , the pediatrician is running tests . she gets a little fussy when a baby is not born in the hospital . i 'll check for you . adrienne : see , there you go , sweetheart . everything is gon na be fine . you just need to relax . okay . will : nick ? roman : so what happened here , john , between you and kristen ? kristen : john , you do n't think i knew that you wanted brady to walk in on us ? i wanted the same thing . i just wanted you to think that it was your idea . john : now why the hell would i want that , hmm ? kristen : because you knew it would be the end of brady and me , just like i knew it would be the end of you and marlena . we 're done here . i 'm gon na go home , i 'm gon na find my man , and i 'm gon na get married . roman : you 're not gon na answer my questions ? okay . not too hard to figure out . you came here to try to stop kristen from marrying brady . how 'd that work out for you ? brady : this is one of the men who attacked you that night ... when i came to your rescue , right ? and then ... kristen : wait brady , listen -- brady : then we started getting close , and then you told me you were changed ... kristen : no , listen -- brady : and then you said that you were different . kristen : brady , please , just listen to me . brady : and you , you set me up . kristen : no . brady : you played me . kristen : no ! no . brady : no ? kristen : you did this . i love him . i love him more than anything in the world , and you ca n't stand it , can you ? so you just had to create that total lie and show it to him , right ? damaged hair ? that 's all in my past . maggie : oh , sonny . i 'm so glad that will is gon na be all right . sonny : you and me both . maggie : sounds like we all had some luck on our side today . i know that gabi and nick , now , they have a lot to thank you and will for . adrienne : you know , when will wakes up in the morning , he 's gon na be thrilled to see arianna . gabi : yeah . yeah , he will . did either of you see nick when he was here ? sami : nick ? adrienne : no , he was n't here when we came in earlier . sami : in fact , i have n't seen him since after will got out of surgery . i thought he left . gabi : no , he was here . he was holding the baby . nick : you 've got a choice here , will . you can either turn yourself in for shooting ej , and hurt a lot of people in the process , or you can give up the rights to your daughter and not only protect the people you care about , but give your daughter a fighting chance at having a stable life . that 's what it boils down to . will : you use what you know to try to get me out of my daughter 's life ? nick : [ sighs ] yes . will : okay . is it because i 'm gay ? nick : yes . john : i was n't here to hurt her , roman . come on ! mr. black , as your lawyer , i 'd advise you not to answer any questions . excuse me , commissioner ? the front desk said ms . dimera never filed a complaint . she 's not answering her phone . roman : all right , so let me get this straight . the only complaint you 've got is from somebody down the hall saying they heard raised voices . yes , sir . john : so what ? it 's a surprise that kristen and i had words ? mr. black , you do n't have -- john : no , no , it 's all right . everybody knows i did n't want my son marrying that crazy bitch ! the whole town thought it was crazy ! so yeah , roman , we had ourselves a little argument . and a hell of a lot of good that did ! kristen : so why did n't you just add a little flying saucer to the picture ? or maybe bigfoot ? just because you photoshop two people , it does n't make it a real photo . marlena : i know nothing about photography . but i do know the man in that picture . i think his name is sy something , and he came to me to be a patient . he also wanted to give me something , a photograph i assume , because it was in an envelope . but then , i do n't know , he just disappeared . poof ! did you have something to do with that ? kristen : do you hear what she 's doing ? she 's just fabricating this whole thing , brady , out of thin air . brady : i need a moment alone with her , marlena , please , if you do n't mind ? marlena : i 'm sorry it had to come out like this . brady : it 's all right . kristen : oh , you lying bitch ! you live for this , are you kidding me ? that 's why you faked that photo , marlena ! and you know it ! [ door closes ] brady : do n't . do n't ! kristen : brady ... brady : you know , when marlena showed me this photo , she did n't know that this man was one of the men that put me in the hospital . she had n't seen the police mug shot , kristen . kristen : but hope hates me almost as much as marlena does , so she probably did something -- brady : would you stop lying to me ? just stop it ! kristen , you paid this guy to fake your mugging . so i would come to your rescue and you could reel me in , right ? you 've been playing me since day one , right ? you 've been playing me , have n't you ? have n't you , yes or no ? mom ... brady : i want to hear it . i want to hear the truth , from you . kristen : i want to tell you the truth . i want to tell you everything . that 's why i came racing over here . did you hear me call out your name ? i love you . i love you so much . i had this total epiphany tonight . it was just crazy . i had an epiphany about you , and me , and our relationship . we 've been through so much . baby ... baby , we made it . i know now that no matter who 's against us or what happens , i love you ! i love you , and nothing can change that ! brady : you ... you ... kristen : tell me that you know that . brady : you are not answering my question . answer my question . did you pay this guy ? did you pay him to attack you and hurt me ? kristen : why would i do that ? brady : because you were playing me . because your game was to get close to me so you could hurt my father and destroy his marriage and watch marlena suffer , right ? yes or no ? kristen , i already know it 's true . i just want to hear it come out of your sick mouth , yes or no ? do n't stand there ! say yes or no ! kristen : [ weakly ] yes . maggie : you know , i 've been thinking about it , um ... this might be a real opportunity for the four of you . sonny : an opportunity ? maggie : well , you know , to make it -- to make it work . i know that will , you know , he signed away his rights to the baby , and that there 's been a lot of bad blood . but you all are gon na have to start getting along somehow , right ? sonny : i think it could happen . gabi and i sure are n't the same people we were before the baby was born , but nick and will -- adrienne : okay . maxine : i paged the pediatrician . as soon as she gets back to me , we 'll know what 's what . it wo n't be long . gabi : thank you . maxine : you bet . adrienne : see ? it 's like maxine said , they 're probably just doing some tests , sweetie . sami : uh , i 'm gon na go so , um , i 'll be back in a little bit , right ? adrienne : see , honey , everything is gon na be fine . that baby has been in good hands since the moment it came into this world . gabi : i know . and i 'm very grateful . maxine : i did n't want to scare the poor child , but the baby is not in the nursery and the pediatrician does n't have her either . sami : it was nick fallon . that crazy son of a bitch took my granddaughter . come on ! nick : say hello to your dad . marlena : hope . finally . hope : hey , marlena . i just got your messages . what 's going on ? marlena : i need your help . it 's kristen . john : it 's me again , kid . give me a call . are we through here , roman ? roman : lot of wrinkles for a nice , pretty wedding dress . john : are we through here , roman ? roman : you know what , john ? just between you and me , let me take a wild guess at what might have happened here . you came here , got in kristen 's face , made a play for her , she freaked , ran out -- and before you deny that , i do know you still have feelings for her . john : [ scoffs ] brady : my god , that 's the first time you 've been honest with me since i 've met you . kristen : that 's not true . brady , do you remember when i first came to town , and how mean you were to me ? i mean , you were really tough on me because you were so determined to protect john and marlena . i know . i - i 'm just saying it because , you know , you were n't all sweetness and light in the beginning either . but then , we got to know each other and you fell in love with me , and that changed you , just like it changed me . and yes , in the beginning , i - i did some bad ... things . i used tricks and stupid lies and things because i wanted to get revenge on john and marlena . brady : yeah , i know . what was i ? was i collateral damage to you ? kristen : no . brady : you know , marlena was right about you . she was absolutely right about you , from day one , and you just admitted it . kristen : no , what i meant -- brady : yes , you did ! kristen : no , what i 'm admitting is that in the beginning it was wrong , but then it turned right because of your love . brady : our love ! kristen : yeah . brady : our love ? kristen : yeah . brady : what love ? kristen : you 'd never -- please , just listen to me . i 'd never -- i 'd never been in ... brady : i do n't know what you 're talking about . kristen : love like that before , okay ? i - i -- nobody ever loved me like that before , brady . i did n't know . brady : oh , this -- kristen : and now i finally know ! i know what you mean to me ! brady : i understand . you 're talking about the epiphany that you had , right ? you had an epiphany ? kristen : yeah . brady : well , please , why do n't you tell me all about it ? why do n't you tell me what happened tonight , exactly , that changed everything for you . will : [ weakly ] i ca n't -- hi . hi , arianna . oh , my god . thank you . nick : everything i 've done -- i 'm so sorry , will . will : it 's okay , i ... i understand . can i -- nick : are you okay ? will : can i take her ? nick : okay . [ baby fussing ] nick : here . will : oh , it 's okay . nick : here 's your daddy . will : it 's okay , it 's okay . nick : are you okay ? will : [ grunts ] yeah . oh , my god . nick : you two should -- should share , so . [ baby crying ] will : oh , no . shh . i 'm sorry . sonny : shh , shh , shh , shh . [ baby wails ] maggie : [ sighs ] sami : maggie ! maggie : oh ! sami : hey , have you seen nick ? maggie : no , but i just spoke to sonny . i 'm so glad -- i 'm so glad will is gon na be all right . sami : yeah , yeah . maggie : is something wrong ? sami : yes ! you could say that . i swear to god , if nick kidnapped my granddaughter , i swear to god -- maggie : sami , what in the world ? nick would never do something like that ! sami : are you kidding me ? you have always been blind to what that kid is really capable of . i swear to god , he -- does the name melanie mean anything to you , maggie ? maxine : everything is cool . come on . sami : what ? maxine : come on . sami : oh , god . john : well , let me put it this way , roman . if what you think happened happened , you 'd be thrilled , would n't you ? 'cause that would finally give you a chance to make a play for my wife . marlena : [ gasps ] there he is ! that 's the man in the picture , the one that kristen was paying off . hope : his name is sy miller . brady id 'd him as one of the muggers . marlena : so now we have the proof that she set the entire thing up . i knew it ! hope : the photograph of sy and kristen , you gave it to brady ? marlena : yes . hope : where did you get it ? marlena : well that 's the odd part . i got it from johnny ... who happened to take it out of ciara 's backpack . kristen : your father came to my hotel room tonight , and he wanted to do the same thing that marlena wants to do -- just destroy us . just do n't let him do it , please , brady , do n't let him destroy us -- brady : hey , hey ! try to stay focused for me for a minute . what did my father want ? kristen : he wanted me in bed . do you have a mouthwash that works all day ? brady : that 's , uh -- kristen : i know , i know . but brady , it makes perfect sense when you think about who your father is , right ? and what he 's capable of ? so he came to my hotel room and he said that he had never gotten over me , and he still wanted me . and that i should just stop fighting it , and that i should give in , 'cause he thought i was the old kristen , but i 'm not , see ? i could see right through him . brady : assu -- assuming any of this is real , why would my father do that ? kristen : he wanted to be in bed with me ... when you walked in . but brady , you know what i told him ? i told him that i loved you ! i chose you , brady , because you 're the most important thing in the whole world to me , and i do n't need anything else ! i do n't need revenge . i do n't need anything but you , brady , and your love . sami : hey . i thought you were supposed to be asleep until tomorrow . will : she 's so beautiful . sami : oh , yeah . but you 're a dad now . you 've got ta get the language right . she 's not just beautiful , she is the most beautiful baby on the whole planet . will : yeah , she is . maggie : oh ! you 're still here . i thought someone said you had gone home . honey , is everything all right ? honey ? gabi : i 'm just saying , sonny and i have really gone at each other and said some pretty mean stuff . but honestly , today , if he had n't been there , i do n't think i would have made it . adrienne : [ chuckles ] but you did , honey . and that 's what 's important . gabi : he was so kind , and so smart , always trying to figure out what to do next , trying to keep the baby safe . i - i do n't even know how i 'm gon na thank him . adrienne : well , do n't worry about that . i know he 's just thrilled that everything worked out okay . now i do have to admit , his mother is awfully proud of him . [ both laughing ] gabi : yeah , he 's already a really big part of arianna 's life . i mean , he was the first to hold her when she was first born . [ door opens ] maxine : okay , here 's the skinny on that little bundle of joy . will horton is awake , and arianna has been visiting with him . adrienne : really ? maxine : mm - hmm . adrienne : oh , that 's wonderful . gabi : oh , my gosh , really ? i 'm -- i 'm -- oh , i wish i would have been there to see his face when he first saw her . will : it 's hard to realize that -- i mean , if you did n't get gabi away from that maniac -- sami : hey , let 's not think about that right now , okay ? let 's focus on the important things . will : yeah . i mean , thank god that you got gabi to the hospital before she was born . sami : you did n't tell him ? sonny : no , it 's -- it 's not a big deal . sami : i 'm sorry , but i disagree with you . i think it 's a very big deal , sonny . will : what ? sami : will , sonny delivered your baby . maggie : nick . nick , nick , nick , wait . talk to me . what 's going on ? is it what happened out on the island ? nick : will saved my life . maggie : i heard . i mean , some of it anyway . he was very brave . nick : after everything i did to him . he almost got killed trying to save my life . and then ... and then jensen shot him . maggie : [ gasps ] nick : and he almost shot gabi . he did n't even care about the baby , he was just -- he was always like that . maggie : nick , this -- this man , all i heard was that he was in prison with you . is that right ? nick : yeah . maggie : and for some reason , he came looking for you ? nick : [ sniffles ] i do n't know if i can hold on . maggie : what ? nick : it 's like -- i thought everything was going so great , you know ? i got married , and i had a job , and -- maggie : nick , who is this man ? nick : i thought ... if i just pretended like -- like it did n't happen -- i mean , how else was i supposed to survive ? and it was -- if it did n't happen ... then it did n't matter . you know , they gave me my early parole . and i was sure i was gon na be okay . then i met gabi , and gabi was my life . and then they let jensen out . maggie : sweetheart , what -- what happened in prison ? what did he do to you ?

kate : good morning . i just wanted to stop by on my way to the office to apologize for my behavior last night . i was ... stunned . justin : that makes two of us . kate : i do n't know what gave victor the ridiculous notion that the two of us could work together . justin : well , technically , we wo n't be working together . i am your supervisor . kate : [ scoffs ] whatever . but i think as long as we keep a united front , we 'll be able to talk victor out of this . justin : no , no , no . victor 's not changing his mind . and besides , i did n't stay up all night reading about mascara for nothing . kate : [ laughs ] are you really gon na let him bully you into this ? oh , or is this actually about lucas and adrienne ? lucas : [ sighs ] well , i am so glad that you spent the night . adrienne : me , too . lucas : are you sure about that ? adrienne : mm , of course . i ca n't help feeling a little guilty . lucas : justin is with his mistress in dubai . do you think he 's feeling guilty right now ? i 'm sorry , come here . [ laughter ] melanie : hi , buddy . hey , come here . oh , i did n't know i fell asleep . daniel : sorry we woke you up . melanie : do n't be sorry . this is exactly what i needed today . hi , buddy . waking me up , you sneaking in here , waking me up ? [ knock on door ] theresa : hello . brady : maxine said you 'll be released soon . theresa : yeah , in about an hour . wish tate could come home with me . brady : i just saw him . he looks great . doctor said he 'll probably be home in two days . listen , um ... i wanted to apologize to you about last night . i was out of line . theresa : well , you were upset . i want tate . you want tate . we both just want him to be happy , right ? [ zips bag ] brady : yeah , and i realize i did n't come across very calm , or very reasonable . and like you said , we both just want what 's best for tate . that 's why i think it 'd be better if we just settle this ... whole thing today . theresa : today ? how is that even possible ? brady : theresa , this is the framework for a custody agreement . i think you 'll find it very fair . jj : okay , i just went to paige 's dorm , and she was n't there . and nobody 's seen her . god , if something 's happened to her , i ... jennifer : honey , i 'm sure she 's fine . jj : but i texted her like a hundred times last night . if she 'd just let me know that she 's okay ... jennifer : well , i think ... maybe you just need to give her some time , okay ? jj : i know . [ knock on door ] jj : mom , i 'm sorry i 've got ta go . [ knock on door ] jennifer : yes ? paige . jj : what the hell do you want ? eve : i 'm looking for my daughter ! jj : she 's not here . get out of my house ! eve : did you find her ? last night i -- do you know where she is ? did you talk to her , jj ? jj : i did . eve : wait , wait , wait . if you tried to make this all my fault , jj , i swear to you -- jj : i was completely honest with her , eve . eve : oh , really ? well that 's new for you . how did that strategy work out for you , huh ? jj : she said that she wanted me out of her life for good . i really hope you 're happy about that . 'cause you finally got exactly what you 've been wanting . jennifer : uh , paige , come in , please . how are you ? we have been so worried about you . paige : oh , yeah ? where was this worry when you were helping my mom and jj cover up their sick and disgusting affair ? jennifer : i made a terrible mistake . paige : you must have known about my mom and jj for months . when i saw you arguing with her at the square , i could tell that you were hiding something from me . jennifer : yes , i was . that was the day that i found out that your mom and jj were sl -- paige : how ? hmm ? how did you find out ? jennifer : i walked in on them , together . paige : oh , my god ... jennifer : paige , listen to me , honey . paige : why did n't you say anything ? i mean , i know jj is your son but , why would you let him keep a secret like that from me ? why would you let him pull me back in when i was trying so hard to get over him ? jennifer : it was my fault , yes . you and jj getting back together after everything that happened , it was my idea . adrienne : [ laughs ] oh , no ! lucas : oh , that was a good breakfast , too ! oh , no , i guess i 'll have to buy you breakfast , now wo n't i ? adrienne : no , you have an early day . lucas : yeah , i do . but when you 're the boss you know , you get to make your own schedule . adrienne : oh . lucas : and i 'm not ready to turn myself away from you yet . kate : victor knew that you would never turn down the job once you found out that lucas was your chief competitor . i ca n't believe that you let him manipulate you like that . justin : so , i should let you be the one to manipulate me ? kate : i 'm trying to look out for the two of us , justin . justin : gee , thanks . but i 've accepted the situation for what it is . and i suggest you do the same . start focusing on doing your job rather than just talking about it . kate : [ scoffs ] excuse me ? justin : well , you already have two strikes against you . one more screw up , and uh , i think you can figure out what happens next . i was just looking at the projected sales for this quarter and i just do n't think that we should launch a new product in this crowded market . [ scoffs ] damn it ! brady : as you can see , theresa , there 's nothing limiting your parental rights . and i 'm willing to be extremely generous in terms of financial support . not only for tate , but also for you . theresa : whoa . you were n't kidding . brady : all you got ta do is sign it , initial the highlighted areas , and we 'll put this issue to rest . theresa : wait , wait , wait . what ? what is this ? it says i ca n't live anywhere besides salem ? you and i are gon na raise tate here . but i 'm gon na put you up in a comfortable home , everything you need . theresa : what ? but brady ... you know that i 'm thinking about moving back to california to be near my parents . brady : theresa , come on . the only reason you 're holding that over my head is because you want melanie gone . theresa : what , brady -- brady : that is not gon na happen . so my suggestion to you is you take this very limited time offer , because it 's the best you 're gon na get . kimberly : no , no , no ! do n't do it , do n't do it . no , theresa , do n't do it , do n't sign a damn thing . eve : you only have yourself to blame here , jj . yeah , it 's your fault that paige found out . jj : my fault ? eve : oh , yeah . if you had n't tried to entrap me she never would overheard you in the next room ... jj : are you kidding me ? eve : blabbing about absolutely everything ! jj : you tried to frame me and get me sent to jail . if you would have stayed away like you promised , none of this would have ever happened . eve : you 're blaming me for this ? [ knock at door ] eve : [ scoffing ] daphne : paige wanted me to give you your stuff back . i can see that you 're busy . jj : no . even i -- daphne : none of my business . jj : wait , daphne . do you know where paige is ? eve : if you know where my daughter is you have to tell me , please , please . paige : it was your idea ? why would you -- jennifer : paige , i knew what jj had done was wrong . very wrong . paige : really ? jennifer : but i also knew how miserable the two of you were apart . he loves you so much , and you love him . you told me so . paige : yeah , well i might have told you something a little different if i knew the whole story . jennifer : no , paige , that 's why i want to explain to you -- maxine : paige ! happy birthday , girl . paige : thanks . maxine : how was your party ? sorry i did n't make it . i had a double shift . jennifer : uh , maxine -- maxine : jj worked very hard to keep it a surprise . that boy sure knows how to keep a secret . paige : he sure does . he must 've learned it from his mother . lucas : you know what , i think i 'm gon na call my work , tell them i 'll be late . adrienne : okay . lucas : you mind ordering me something ? adrienne : oh , sure . of course . lucas : i trust you . adrienne : oh . [ laughs ] that 's your first mistake . justin : kate ! kate : [ scoffs ] justin : kate ! kate , stop ! you 're being ridiculous . kate : if you think i 'm going to listen to anything that you have to say , you 're crazy . justin : well , you damn well better . or you 're gon na find yourself without a job . maggie : well , parker , if you left your bear at your mom 's , i 'm sure we can get it tomorrow . daniel : or ... today ! right there ! oh ! maggie : yay ! daniel : found it . you found it . oh , my gosh . daniel : melanie , did you ... say ... melanie : dad ? yeah . um ... so if daniel 's your son -- maggie : that would make you my granddaughter . melanie : oh , my goodness . is this for me ? is this us ? this is fantastic , i 'm gon na frame it . parker : i 'll make another one . melanie : another one ? awesome ! oh , oh . daniel : do n't forget we 're going to the park soon , okay ? parker : okay . daniel : go ahead . [ laughter ] melanie : this is just -- the details , it 's exquisite . daniel : oh yeah , look at that . eyelashes ... melanie : [ giggles ] maggie : you want to go with us ? melanie : um ... i 'm actually -- i 'm gon na wait for brady . he 's supposed to stop by , but i need to tell you guys something before you go . daniel : sounds serious . melanie : it is . kimberly : you want her to hurry up and sign the `` special limited time offer . `` a lawyer has not even looked at that document , brady . brady : kimberly ... [ clears throat ] why do n't you take a look at it ? okay , you 'll find it 's extremely fair . theresa : well , you know , mom , brady is being very generous with his financial support , and i do n't really have a problem with the custody terms . it 's just that i have to stay in salem . kimberly : forever ? no . no , no , no . it 's not gon na happen , honey . no , no , no . you 're not brady 's prisoner , and you do n't have to sign a document that 's gon na limit your choices for your entire life . brady : theresa and i both want to be full - time parents to tate . i do n't want to take him away from her , and i do n't think she wants to take him away from me . but my place of business is here , in salem . i ca n't just move to l.a . kimberly : oh , oh , oh . wait a minute . wait a minute . i see , theresa 's the one that 's supposed to make all the sacrifices , and you , mr . generosity , you call it generous to just throw money at her to get your way . i ca n't believe john black 's son would be such a controlling jerk . brady : controlling ? you know , speaking of `` controlling , `` hey , why do n't you let theresa decide for herself ? kimberly : she made a decision . she decided she needs the warmth and the love of her own family . and shane and i are willing -- brady : you do n't think tate needs the support of his father ? i do n't plan on being a deadbeat dad . i 'm going to raise my son ! kimberly : will you use your head , brady ? you run an international corporation . realistically , how much time do you really think you have to spend with your son ? brady : i will make time . i do n't like you questioning my commitment to my son . this matter 's between your daughter and me . you butt the hell out . daphne : paige would be really unhappy to see either one of you , right now . eve : well you know what , that 's not your call . i 'm her mother , and i -- daphne : slept with her boyfriend . i mean , really ? jj : you know what , daphne , please , will you just tell me where she is ? okay , i really need to try to make things right . daphne : how are you possibly gon na do that , jj ? if she ever wants to see you again , i 'm sure she 'll let you know . jj : you know what , daphne , if you do n't tell me where she is , i 'm gon na go across the street , and knock on your parents ' door , and tell them that you 're dating a dude with two kids , that 's already been divorced , and he 's only 21 . daphne : you would n't dare . jj : i will if you do n't help me . daphne : she thought you had an appointment , so she went to your place to get some of her things . eve : oh . jj : eve , stop . thank you , and please do n't tell paige that we 're on our way . maxine : i 'll come back later . jennifer : paige , honey . when i saw your mom and jj together , it ... it made me sick . and i was so angry and disappointed in him . because i could n't understand how he could hurt you that way . but the truth is , after ... after he explained everything to me and ... how it happened . he has never regretted anything more in his life . he loves you so much . and that 's how he proved it , i saw that . how much he loved you , honey . paige : jj always knows the right things to say to get people on his side . no , that is not true . he meant it . there 's no doubt in my mind he was devastated when he thought he lost you . and so were you , honey . and that 's why i felt partly responsible . paige : why ? jennifer : because your mom and i , we have this horrible history . and i feel like you and jj have suffered because of that . and i feel like if i could have just made peace with her somehow , she would have left the two of you alone . paige : and then jj and i would 've been together and he never would have cheated on me ? please . jennifer : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just trying to explain that after he confessed all of this , i felt so helpless because this is something i should have prevented , and i did n't . so i did the one thing that i thought would help , but it really did n't help at all . it ended up being the worst possible thing i could 've done . paige : wait , what did you do ? jennifer : i went to your mom , and i blackmailed her . kate : your name is n't even on the door yet , and you 're threatening to fire me . justin : i do n't like this arrangement any more than you do , but i am going to be professional . and if you ca n't be , i already have the names of three people who can walk right in here and take over tomorrow . kate : ah , really ? justin : mm - hmm . kate : well i know who they are , and none of them can do what i do . justin : oh , you 're right . i bet it would take them twice as long to lose our best designer and best distributor . you have a unique talent , kate . no one can alienate people quite like you . kate : [ scoffs ] lucas : sorry about that . adrienne : oh , that 's okay . the server has n't come yet . and i 've been poring over the menu . lucas : oh , yeah ? what , you do n't know what you want ? adrienne : um ... actually , i 've been keeping a low profile . justin just came through . apparently he did n't go back to dubai after all . lucas : did he see you ? adrienne : no , no . he was too busy chasing after your mother . kate : well , obviously , you are not familiar with this industry . otherwise you would know that i have an excellent track record in this business . so , i 'm not going to listen to any of your snide little comments . i 'm not going to listen to any advice that you think you need to give me . justin : okay , if you 'd just be quiet for just a moment , all right . kate : [ laughs ] justin : and listen to me -- kate : hi , lucas . lucas : what 's going on here ? melanie : oh , i was -- i was thinking about what it was like growing up . oh , and uh ... how with trent it was , it was just about surviving and getting by . and i did n't think i would ever know what it was like to have a real family . and then i found out you and carly were my parents ... and that you were my grandma ... and i know what love is . maggie : oh , honey . melanie : and that love has made me want to be a better person . and i 'm so glad i got a second chance . daniel : yeah , me too . maggie : we all are , darling . i mean , you know that . come on , where is all this coming from ? melanie : i know exactly how important family is because i know what it was like to live without you two . and it 's made me realize i know exactly what i have to do . kimberly : hey , buddy . i 'm just trying to protect my grandson and my daughter , and if theresa feels it 's in both their best interest to go home , who are you ? brady : she does n't feel that way . kimberly : who ha -- brady : do n't you realize the only reason she 's considering moving back to california is that she wants to use the threat to get me to dump melanie . kimberly : oh ? is this true ? theresa : no , of course not . but you know what , brady , listen . i owe melanie everything , okay ? and i have thanked her so many times . listen , i am putting tate first , okay . how about you ? kimberly : ha -- okay , okay . honey , it 's okay . brady , you got ta go . i think you got ta go -- take this worthless document with you . and listen , for future reference , my daughter is not going to sign anything unless our lawyer looks over every single detail first . brady : fine . but if you think you 're gon na take my son away from me , it 's never gon na happen . eve : [ sighs ] she 's not here . either daphne was wrong or paige is already gone . jj : damn it , all right . eve : not so fast ! jj : what now , eve ? eve : well , here we are , jj . it 's where this whole mess started , and where it ended . jj : i do n't want to talk about this anymore -- eve : of course you do n't . you just walk away . knew you were n't man enough to face your mistakes . jj : all right , you know what ? you think i have n't faced my mistakes ? i had to look paige in the eye and see how hurt she was . and betrayed . i broke her heart . and now i 'll never be able to forgive myself . eve : good . you should n't . because if you had listened to me from the beginning , i would still have my daughter . jennifer : paige , you and jj wanted to get back together . but jj knew that your mother would never allow it . so that is when i went to her ... and i told her if she did n't leave the two of you alone , that i would ... paige : you 'd tell me that she slept with my boyfriend . jennifer : yeah . and that 's when you saw us fighting , and -- and -- that 's when i almost told you myself . paige : but you did n't . because my mom caved , right ? [ laughs softly ] it all makes sense now . because the next day jj did a complete 180 . instead of pushing me away like he had been for months , he said things were suddenly over with `` roxanne `` and that he wanted me back . just when i was starting to get over him . god , how could you do this to me ? jennifer : honey , i thought that you and jj were still in love . and that if you could give it a try without your mother 's interference -- paige : oh , and you think your interference was some kind of good deed ? if things had gone your way , i would 've been living a horrible lie for the rest of my life . justin : i think you know what 's going on . my wife did n't come home last night . so let me take a wild guess and say she spent the night with you . adrienne : you said you were going to dubai to be with elsa . justin : i said i was going to dubai for work . lucas : then why are you here ? kate : oh , if you must know , the reason that justin did n't go to dubai is because he 's coming to work for me . jennifer : paige , i know that i made a mistake . i knew it right away . but there was no undoing it because you and jj were already back together . and all i wanted was for you to be spared the hurt that you 're feeling right now . paige : oh , no . do n't act like you did something noble . like you gave a damn about my flings . the only thing you cared about was enabling your lying son . you sacrificed me so that jj could get what he wanted . jennifer : no , paige , no . i wanted to help you . i - i did , and i know that i made things worse , and i am so , so sorry . paige : [ laughs softly ] funny . i always thought jj was so lucky to have a mother like you . compared to my own mom , you always seemed so ... together and responsible and ... upstanding . but now i see , the two of you really are n't that different at all . eve : yeah , i knew from the beginning that you were going to end up hurting my daughter . because i saw how selfish you were , jj . so selfish that you kept pursuing paige even after you slept with her mother . jj : all right , what do you call yourself , eve ? if you had n't kept trying to come between us -- eve : none of this would have happened ? really ? are you kidding me ? if it were n't me it 'd be somebody else . not only are n't you man enough to own up to what you did , you had to run to mommy to- to get her to , you know , blackmail me into helping you win paige back . i told jennifer that was a stupid idea , but no , the two of you just insisted that it was the right thing to do . how do you feel about it now , jj , hmm ? 'cause you know that paige never would have been that devastated if you had n't tried to win her back to make her fall in love with you again . jj : i was just trying to make her happy . eve : but instead , you destroyed her . and you took from me the one ... the only thing that i 've ever cared about in this whole world . [ deep inhale ] but there is one ... one consolation in all this , and that is ... [ laughs softly ] i know that she 's never gon na end up with you . jj : well , you know what , that 's where you 're wrong .

[ humming ] i get it . i get it . until you need me again , then i will be here on a moment 's notice . theresa : thanks . kimberly : okay . oh , what we need to do in the meantime , we need to get all our legal ducks in a row so you can come home whenever you want . theresa : well , i appreciate it . kimberly : yeah ? all right . all right , so i got ta get moving and ... you know , i wish that i had seen paige and eve while i was here . the funny thing -- they did n't return any of my phone calls . theresa : oh , god , how unlike them . kimberly : [ laughs ] now , now , now , now . i 'm gon na make sure that they 're here to support you while i 'm gone , all right ? theresa : okay , mom , look i 'll be fine . i promise . come here . i just -- i ca n't thank you enough for all of your help . maggie : what do you mean , you know what you have to do ? daniel : does this have something to do with brady and theresa ?

[ slap ] jj : [ clears throat ] see what i mean ? eve : [ exhales ] daniel : you know and this situation with brady , i know how much she loves him . and - and it 's just gotten ... [ both sigh ] daniel : i do n't know , it 's just complex , obviously . maggie : what do you think melanie 's planning to do ? daniel : i do n't know . i 'm sure she 'll tell us when she 's ready . maggie : mm . but she 's so upset . i mean , she and brady have n't been together that long and this baby ... oh , it 's going to be a huge test in their relationship . daniel : yeah , but they 've friends for a very long time . and i think , you know what , i think they 're gon na be strong enough to get through this . maggie : i hope you 're right . it 's just that whenever theresa 's involved , i ca n't help but worry . [ laughs softly ] anne : have you completely lost it ? you gave up enough money to keep us -- i mean you -- in manolo blahniks for a lifetime ! you could have bought that gorgeous house i found down on university parkway -- theresa : i do n't want to live on university parkway , anne . anne : oh , no of course not . what was i thinking ? why would you want to live in a million dollar mansion when you could cozy up in a cramped little apartment that overlooks a parking lot and gets no light ? theresa : listen . the point is , if i sign on that dotted line i still would n't be getting what i want . anne : and what do you want , theresa ? theresa : well , i just think that it would be easier to raise my child alongside brady if , you know , melanie , was n't around . anne : uh - huh . do n't you mean easier to get brady back ? theresa : well , is n't that what 's best for tate ? you know , to have his parents together ? anne : yes , well , in an ideal world , yes , of course . that 's what 's best , right ? two adoring parents , no custody battles , right ? just love and harmony and ai n't life perfect . but i 'll tell you something , unless you 're planning another little incident , you know , like with a fireplace poker ... i do n't see melanie going anywhere any time soon . melanie : well , i know you had custody papers drawn up last night . i thought the terms were fair . did she not ? brady : she pretty much flipped out . she and her mom . melanie : she 's still threatening to move to california unless i 'm out of the picture . she said she did n't mean to give that impression . melanie : oh , what impression did she mean to give ? brady : i do n't -- you know what , i do n't care . it does n't matter . it does n't matter because she does n't get to dictate how i live my life . and i do n't want to live my life without you . melanie : do you want to live your life without your son ? parker : [ airplane noises ] daniel : hey , look out . maggie : whoa ! [ laughter ] maggie : oh , i hate that so many people i love are going through such a difficult time . daniel : yeah . have you -- have you talked to jennifer ? maggie : she 's in a terrible state . she blames herself for what happened to paige . daniel : yeah , i just wish there was something i could 've done but , i ... maggie : you know what ? how did you find out the truth ? daniel : well , at first , paige thought eve slept with ... with me . maggie : oh . daniel : only because my jacket was at the apartment . maggie : ah , the jacket that jj borrowed . hmm . daniel : yeah , and i tried . i tried to get jennifer and jj to tell paige the truth , but it had gotten so far out of hand by then it ... i do n't know . i just hope it has n't gotten any worse . oh , my goodness ! you 're a wild man , on the loose . parker : [ giggling ] maxine : i 'll get right on this . you want to talk about it ? jennifer : no . because you 're going to try to make me feel better , and i 'd rather sit here and just beat myself up about it a little bit more . maxine : do n't do that , jen . you 're a good person and a wonderful mom . be kind to yourself , okay ? jennifer : [ sighs ] maybe i should call jj . [ door opens , slams ] paige : i thought i saw you drop this . jj : yeah , yeah . i guess i did . [ chuckles ] paige : [ chuckles ] jj : thank you . lucas : victor 's got a great sense of humor , does n't he ? adrienne : ha , since when ? lucas : he thinks you 'll do anything to destroy me , right ? right , i feel exactly the same way . mad world is going down . there 's nothing you can do about it . excuse us , we 're gon na go have a nice breakfast , alone . kate : [ scoffs ] oh , god ... justin : you really need to stop telling people i work for you . kate : oh . as long as you do n't tell people that i do work for you . because as far as i 'm concerned , i do n't . justin : [ sighs ] anne : you look too happy . theresa : well , of course i 'm happy . anne , i am the mother of the sweetest little boy in the whole wide world . anne : uh - huh . yeah , but you 're up to something that is n't the least bit sweet . or sensible , or even moral . am i getting warm ? theresa : well , let 's just say i gave melanie something to think about . and now , the proverbial ball is in her court . whenever she decides , i 'll be ready . brady : i 'm not going to be separated from my son , or from you . and we 'll figure out a way to make this thing work . melanie : no , brady . come on , theresa 's was willing to kill somebody to marry you . she 's not going to back down from this . and you heard aiden . he does n't think you 'll get custody . brady : melanie , there -- there 's a way -- we could -- melanie : i 'm sorry , no , brady , i 'm sorry . there 's only one way to solve this so that -- so that your son does n't suffer . theresa 's always going to use him as a weapon against you unless i take myself out of this situation and that 's what i 'm going to do . brady : what ? melanie : for your sake and your son 's . i 'm going to leave salem today .

[ machines beeping ] victor : john ? john : how you doing ? victor : you 're up . walking around . thought you 'd be laid up a lot longer after what orpheus did to you . john : [ grunts ] i 'm fine . victor : how 'd you let that poor man 's stefano get to you in the first place ? must be slipping . john : [ grunts ] and what about you ? victor : oh , i 'm fine . john : really ? after you and xander let my son think his baby daughter was dead ? victor : oh , i knew you were gon na start with that . john : you 're damn right , i 'm gon na start with that . you handed over my granddaughter to sarah to raise as her own ? if you thought for a second that -- that you were gon na get away from it , you must be the one who 's really slipping . xander : oh , you bastard . brady : you sound upset . xander : you got uncle victor to fire me . brady : no , uh , that was actually his decision . xander : you put him up to it . you twisted his arm and stole my job . brady : how upsetting for you , being the upright and honest man that you are . xander : that job was mine . brady : you took it from me . i took it back . xander , face it . i mean , karma 's just a bitch , is n't it ? sonny : all right , well , i 'm gon na take off . will : everything okay ? sonny : i 'm good . you two just need , you know , some time to talk alone . i 'm really glad john 's okay . marlena : oh , i am , too . thank you . mm , thank you . [ both sighing ] will : can you believe we are sitting here eating club sandwiches and yesterday there was a bomb under your sofa ? marlena : i mean , i am so glad that nightmare is over . will : and i 'm so glad that orpheus did n't get someone else that i love . justin : i was reminded today that life is seizing moments , making a commitment to the people you love , and i wan na make a commitment to kayla . some people never find love , and others find it and hang on for a lifetime , and i 've been blessed to love two -- two incredible women , so that 's why i hope it 's okay if i ask kayla to be my wife . now , i remember you telling me that i could get married again if anything ever happened to you as long as she was not a lot younger than you or a redhead . [ laughs ] we thought we had the whole world ahead of us , and we laughed about that . to my everlasting sorrow , we were wrong . adrienne , i do n't know whether i 'm asking for your blessing , for your permission to propose to kayla . i just wish i had some way of knowing that you were at peace with this . kayla : i was n't expecting you . steve : i know , but , um , can we talk ? kayla : okay . sure . um , would you like to take a seat ? so what do you have on your mind ? male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] kayla : before you say anything , i just -- i just want you to know how grateful i am for what you did . steve : what do you mean ? kayla : you know what i mean . talking justin out of shooting orpheus . i mean , you not only kept him out of prison , but saved his soul . steve : well , let 's not go overboard . kayla : i 'm serious . i know justin and he never would have been able to live with himself if he killed another human being . so , again , thank you . steve : you do n't need to thank me . i did n't do it for justin . i did it for you . xander : i 've been more of a grandson to victor than you ever thought of being . brady : oh . xander : you were always being in his face . i stood by him . brady : you were never a grandson to him . you were just his favorite fixer , xander . that 's all you ever were . xander : can you get it through your thick skull ? we were only thinking of maggie and sarah . brady : by stealing my baby and handing her over to sarah . i think you 've underestimated what you did to kristen and me and what we went through . you had sarah convinced that her baby was alive when it was actually , dead and then you used my precious little girl to see your little plan through . xander : if your little girl is so precious to you , then why the hell did you give her up ? victor : do n't tell me you love the idea of your son being tied to kristen for the rest of his life . john : no , i did n't love it , but you know what , vic ? it never occurred to me to make them think their baby was dead ! victor : well , what about maggie 's happiness ? what about her peace of mind ? john : oh , come on ! what are you talking about ? you 're -- you assumed that maggie was responsible for that accident and you were dead wrong , and then you assumed that she would never remember that night , and you were wrong again . hell , the only thing you did to maggie was you put an innocent , grieving woman in prison ! victor : and i regret that . i regret taking brady 's child , too . i never would have done it if it had n't been that kristen was involved , too . john : what ? so that makes it easier ? victor : i 'm making it up for brady to bra -- for brady now . john : i -- you know , i highly doubt that 's possible , vic . victor : i fired xander . brady 's the new ceo . john : so -- are you serious ? you think a damn job is gon na fix what you did to my family ? victor : brady insisted on the job . john : thank god your daughter isabella is n't alive to see what you have done to her son . you promised , vic . you promised her that you would take care of him , and now you have made him your patsy , and you 're gon na rot in hell for that , vic . i swear to god , you 're gon na rot in hell for that . [ monitors beeping rapidly ] victor : [ gasping ] marlena : i am so happy to see you . i 've missed our time together . will : so have i . you know , i think we should see each other a little more often . marlena : i think we should make a regular schedule . eric : hey ! will : yeah . marlena : like , work it out on tuesday . eric : hello , you two . marlena : oh , hello . hello . eric : hey . nicole : wow , i do n't know how you look so beautiful the day after you had to negotiate your husband 's life . it 's amazing . marlena : look who 's talking about being beautiful . thank you . i guess it 's just a lot of sleep . eric : yeah . is dad here ? is he in the kitchen ? will : i asked an no he 's not , but i heard that you two are engaged . that 's -- congratulations . nicole : thank you . will : that 's awesome . nicole : we 're pretty excited . eric : yeah , we 're just really happy to hear that other people are happy for us . marlena : mm - hmm . does your dad know ? eric : no , i thought i 'd tell him in person . marlena : he 'll be thrilled . eric : mm . nicole : well , i know one family member who wo n't be throwing a wedding shower . all : sami [ heart monitor beeping rapidly ] john : well , it looks like there 's nobody down at the nurse 's station . so i guess you 're just gon na have to hang in there , you old coot . i 'll get you some help whether you deserve it or not . kayla : you say you talked justin down for me ? steve : yeah . i know how much he means to you . i did n't wan na see you lose him . kayla : otherwise you would have just let him shoot orpheus ? steve : listen , it happened , okay ? it 's over . kayla : right . so i still have n't heard what you came here to tell me . steve : i 've been doing a lot of thinking since yesterday , and i 've realized -- john : hey , vic -- vic 's crashing , i think . justin : so i have been , uh , sitting here for a while and , um , it 's absolutely still . no wind in the trees . not even a bird flying over . kinda reminds me of the times when you were really , really mad at me . you 'd turn around and cross your arms and go silent . that was scarier than when you were yelling . adrienne , if you think this is the wrong move , oh , i just wish you had some way of saying it . i -- i know it 's not about kayla , 'cause i know you 're crazy about her , but then again maybe you loved her as a sister - in - law and not as my next wife . i just wish i knew for sure . okay , so i am just going to say it flat out . i 'm asking for a sign here . [ footsteps approaching ] sonny : dad ? justin : hey . [ chuckles ] thank you . brady : i did n't give rachel up . she 's with her mother . xander : her mother killed a nurse . brady : mm - hmm . xander : she stuck a knife in victor 's chest . brady : and what -- what drove her to do those things , huh ? you . you made her believe that her child was dead , for god 's sake . xander : oh , did we drive her to put a gun to marlena 's head ? did we also drive her to wear a bloody mask and pretend to be nicole ? you 're absolutely right , brady . she 's mother of the year material . brady : a child is the only thing that she has ever wanted in this world . xander : oh , i know . i was at the brookville clinic when she tried to steal sarah 's fetus . that 's one of her best tricks . she used it on the mother of your son . how do you sleep at night ? you have no idea what she 's doing to that poor little baby right now . brady : you know , if you had n't played god , we would be together . rachel , we would be raising her together . that 's where we would be . xander : why are you still sticking up for that maniac ? brady : she 's not a maniac . she 's a woman that was lied to . she 's a mother who had her heart broken , and i love her with all my heart . now why do n't you get the hell out of here ? xander : even after she stole your daughter ? brady : she did n't -- that 's not how it happened , xander . you just do n't get it , do you ? i let her raise rachel . that was my choice . xander : why ? brady : 'cause i love her . it 's called love . i would do anything to make kristen happy . she deserves to be happy . xander : if you 're so devoted to kristen , how come you 're already in the sack with sarah ? maybe you 're not . nicole : i thought sami and i made peace before she left salem , but then i ran into her the day that brady forced me to leave salem and she had just seen eric and she knew the shape he was in , and she made it crystal clear that the era of good feelings was over for good . marlena : wow . we all saw what happened when you broke up with him . eric : and that was before any of us knew that brady was behind it . nicole : yeah , but we -- we moved through that , right ? we forgave brady . or i guess sami 's not ready . but i know that she 's gon na think this engagement is a disaster . i mean , i just refuse to go to her and beg for forgiveness when i was blackmailed for something , you know ? i can't . i 'm sorry . i 'm -- eric : wait a minute . we have to tell her that we 're engaged . nicole : well , ca n't you just text her ? [ both laughing ] eric : that 'll go over like a lead balloon . so i was kinda hoping that you would kinda talk to her for us . marlena : me ? eric : yeah . marlena : i 'm not telling her . eric : what ? marlena : no , no . eric : come on . marlena : you know what ? if i told her , she 'll know it came from you . so i think you should tell her . will : me ? no , no , no , no , no . marlena : yes , you could be in conversation with her and just casually drop the information as though you -- you thought she knew it already . will : you know what ? let 's draw straws with that . nicole : you 're all really scared of her . eric : no , it 's not that we 're scared . it 's just that -- will : it 's time consuming , is what it is . marlena : yes , and then there 's the whole tirade you have to go through . will : yeah , and you have , like , 500,000 follow up phone calls and -- yeah . eric : e - mails and -- nicole : okay , team . this is ridiculous . eric : what are you -- what are you doing ? nicole : well , i 'm calling her myself . marlena : [ gasps ] [ phone beeps ] [ phone trilling ] nicole : [ exhales sharply ] steve : how 's victor ? john : i do n't know . kayla 's still in there with him . steve : were you with him when it happened ? john : yeah . i just found out what he did with brady 's daughter and i just could n't let it slide . steve : oh , so you let him have it , huh ? john : with both barrels . next thing you know , he 's gasping for air , he turns white as a sheet , and all those alarms just start going off on him . steve : i would n't worry about it . guys like victor do n't die from getting upset . john : yeah . i mean , this year alone he made it through a -- a stroke and a knife to the chest . i just kinda figured he ought to survive me laying into him , right ? steve : right . john : yeah ? yeah . hey , i 'm sorry i broke in on your conversation with kayla . everything all right ? steve : i think so . john : you two seemed pretty serious . anything you wan na talk about ? steve : i was just about to tell kayla i want her back . kayla : i think that you were having a panic attack . that should bring your blood pressure down , though , and you 'll feel better , all right ? victor : mm . kayla : am i gon na have to restrict your visitors ? victor : just john . keep john out of here . kayla : did the two of you have some words ? hmm , well , he does have some issues with you . well , how about this ? if someone upsets you , why do n't you just ask them to leave , all right ? victor : when do i get out of here ? i wan na be there when maggie gets out from prison . it should be soon , thanks to justin . kayla : well , are you sure about that now that she , uh , knows about what happened ? victor : you mean now that she knows what i did ? kayla : well , it should be stressful . victor : i know you think i -- i 'm an interfering old codger who does n't care what his family needs or wants . kayla : it 's not that i do n't think you love your family . victor : maggie , brady , justin went through hell this past year . kayla : true . victor : thank god justin has you . he would have never survived after losing adrienne . do n't know what he would have done without you . so thank you . justin : what made you come here today ? sonny : i just woke up this morning thinking about mom . justin : hmm . sonny : must have been , you know , finding out that maggie did n't cause the accident . justin : right . sonny : you know , i think it would give mom peace knowing it was n't someone she loved who was responsible . justin : i bet your mom has known that all along . sonny : i bet you she has . maybe that 's why this whole mess finally got sorted out . justin : yeah , maybe . sonny : [ sighs ] how about you ? what -- what made you come by today ? same reason i did ? justin : no , no , i came here , um , because i had something else to talk to her about . turned out to be kind of a one - sided conversation . sonny : wan na tell me about it ? justin : well , i was eventually gon na ask you what i asked your mother , so might as well be now . sonny : okay . justin : sonny , what would you think of me proposing to kayla ? xander : yeah , sarah told me you two had sex , but maybe she was just trying to get under my skin . what did i really see ? her in your bed wearing your shirt . that can mean a lot of things . brady : what sarah and i do is actually none of your business . oh , by the way , she hates you so much . sarah : oh , my god . what are you doing here ? brady : oh , xander 's under the impression -- get this . he thinks that we 're lying about sleeping together or something . sarah : are you kidding ? you found me in his bed . xander : does n't really prove anything . sarah : oh , okay , you want proof ? all right . xander : do i have to throw cold water on the two of you ? brady : no . sarah : you believe me now ? xander : why are you doing this ? sarah : kissing brady ? well , it 's kinda simple . as opposed to you , brady 's a kind and decent man who would never con the people that he loves . oh , and he 's really good in bed . brady : thanks . xander : you 're just saying this to get to me . brady : he 's -- he 's a little cranky . sarah : mm . brady : i think he is . did n't you lose your job today or something ? sarah : mm . poor baby . get out . xander : i do n't care what you say . i love you . i 'm not giving up on you . john : [ clears throat ] you really serious about this ? steve : yeah . you know , there 's never been anyone for me but kayla . john : yeah . but , you know , part of me kept saying over and over again that all the stuff you did when stefano was in control made it impossible for the two of you to get back together . steve : well , i decided it was a problem , but not impossible . john : well , what made you decide that ? steve : well , in a way , you did . kayla : uh , victor , you do not need to thank me for being with justin . victor : oh , i beg to differ . he would have never survived the way he lost adrienne so suddenly if it were n't for you . kayla : [ exhales ] i think that you do n't give him enough credit . he 's stronger than that , and he helped me as much as i helped him . you know , i was in a pretty bad place . victor : look how much better off you are with justin instead of that aging delinquent . kayla : victor , do n't talk about steve like that . we had many great years together and two beautiful children . victor : yeah , and a boatload of heartache . how many times did he run off on one of his missions to leave you holding the bag ? justin would have never done that . he was always strong and steady . he 's been my right arm all these years and all i know every time i see the two of you together , it 's obvious how happy he makes you . you know i 'm right . caroline would agree with me . justin : you 're not saying anything . sonny : [ exhales ] how long have you been thinking about getting married ? justin : not long . it 's kind of in the air . eli grant proposed to lani and as you know eric and nicole are engaged . sonny : so it 's like what all the cool kids are doing ? justin : [ laughs ] well , thank you for making me sound 17 . no , i just look at them and see how happy they are and life is short and it can change in a heartbeat . sonny : we both know about that . justin : yes , we do . i love kayla and she loves me . what are we waiting for ? sonny : is that what you wanted to talk to mom about ? justin : mm - hmm . and i know this may sound really weird but i asked her for a sign and you showed up , like , a second later . sonny : me ? i 'm your sign ? justin : well , you said you woke up with this need to come visit your mother . maybe that was her sending you here . maybe she did it because she ca n't answer my question , but you can . would you approve of me asking kayla to marry me ? nicole : so now you know . eric and i are engaged . go ahead . give it to me . oh , well , uh , thank you . uh , so kind of you to wish us well . i really appreciate that . i -- i will . you take care , too , and give my love to the kids . okay , bye . [ phone beeps ] eric : [ snickering ] it sounded like it went really well . nicole : sami was completely gracious and she congratulated us . marlena : wow . i think we may have underestimated her . will : yeah , maybe . i mean , she 's with ej now . maybe he , like , mellowed her out or something . nicole : yeah . marlena : there it is . nicole : what 's that ? eric : it 's a text from sami . nicole : well , what does it say ? oh . [ laughing ] `` you proposed to that bitch ? are you out of your mind ? `` well , so much for that . [ sighs ] brady : [ chuckles ] sarah : sorry about that . brady : no , that was great . i mean , sticking it to xander was great . sarah : yeah , but i -- i more so meant that , like , i did n't consult with you before starting this whole ruse . brady : it 's all right . i mean , i 've done it before . i mean , nicole and i pretended to be together for kristen 's sake , so ... i got ta say that did not depress me , making him flip out like that . sarah : oh , me either . brady : yeah . i mean , forcing victor to fire him , that was good , but -- but watching him -- watching him hurt a little bit , that felt good . i like that . sarah : yeah . i get how this is revenge against xander , but the only thing i do n't understand is how sticking it to xander will help you get even with victor . john : you wan na walk me through how i made you decide you want kayla back ? steve : well , it was in kind of a roundabout way but , uh , kate showed up and said she was arranging some kind of ceremony to give me and hope keys to the city for saving you and marlena from orpheus , so that 's when -- john : wait , wait , wait . back up here . i 've been gone . um , how could kate give the keys to anybody , any city ? steve : well , abe made her his spokesperson . john : why the hell would he do something like that ? steve : i do n't know , man . you should ask him . i thought we were talking about me . john : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . sorry , sorry , man . go on , go on , go on . steve : well , i know the , uh , key thing is a little bit silly , but it made hope and me realize that maybe we 've been beating ourselves up long enough . john : that 's a good thing . steve : you see , we did n't choose to be stefano or gina . our free will was taken away from us . john : that 's a fact . steve : so why should we let that dictate the rest of our lives ? that 's what i 'm trying to do . get on with my life . john : so what about kayla 's life ? you said you have disrupted it enough . steve : well , hope said that was just me wallowing in guilt , and that my guilt was the only thing keeping kayla and me apart . john : not the only thing , partner , and you know it . sonny : sounds like you 're asking me permission to propose to kayla . justin : i say it 's more like a blessing , since your mom ca n't speak for herself , and since the two of you were so close , you would be speaking for her too . and there 's also the fact that you are my son , one of the most important people in my life , and your approval means everything . so give it to me straight . what do you think ? sonny : [ inhales and exhales ] i want you to be happy , and i 'm sure that 's what mom wants too . and obviously kayla makes you happy , so what i think is you should go for it . justin : [ laughing ] oh , sonny . i love you . sonny : i love you , too . justin : mm . will : you know , i think you have to admire how nicole 's not afraid to stand up to mom . marlena : well , i think sami knows that nicole is no pushover . that 's why she was venting to eric instead . will : yeah . eric and nicole . they 've been through a lot , but they seem really happy together . marlena : oh , they seem very happy together . will : i hope mom does n't try anything . marlena : i hope that , too . will : yeah . marlena : by the way , i 'm so glad to see you and sonny so happy together . will : well , thank -- thanks for saying that . i mean , it -- it feels like it 's finally smooth sailing , you know ? except for gabi 's current predicament , of course . marlena : well , you and sonny will handle that together , and you 'll also take care of arianna . will : right . right , yeah . i 'm just so glad that the truth came out about the car crash . i mean , for ari 's sake , for maggie 's sake , and for my sake , obviously , um , it just feels like sonny and i are finally back to where we were before that horrible night . you know , i remember rushing to get home to him . i -- i wanted to tell him i thought he was right about wanting another baby . marlena : [ gasps ] [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . another baby ? will : oh , yeah , well , i mean , it 's a big decision . um , uh -- marlena : um ? um ? oh . [ laughs ] oh , darling , that 's wonderful . that 's wonderful news . [ inhales and exhales sharply ] nicole : oh . eric : what 's got you laughing ? nicole : oh , you do realize we poked a hornet 's nest ? eric : and what 's with the we ? nicole : okay , i poked it . eric : you did n't poke it . you took a bat to it . nicole : yeah , i know , i know , and if sami were n't so consumed with caring for ej , she 'd be on a plane right now . eric : well , there 's one thing i can say . no one , not even sami 's , ever gon na come between us . nicole : oh . [ chuckles ] xander : hey , i need to talk to you . nicole : what do you want ? xander : tell your brother to back the hell away from sarah . eric : brady and sarah ? what are you talking about ? john : you know that kayla 's with justin , though . steve : i know that . john : all right , then think about what you 'll be doing if you make a play for her . steve : i know we ca n't exactly pick up where we left off , but they only got together because justin was bereft after losing adrienne , and kayla was led to believe that i did n't want her anymore . john : does n't really matter how they got together . the bottom line is she 's basically off the market . steve : well , i said that to hope , and she said that kayla should decide who she wants to be with , and i should n't just take myself out of the equation . john : well , she 's got a good point . i mean , after a while , if it were n't for rolf and stefano , the two of you would still be back together . steve : can i count that as a vote of confidence ? john : i owe you , partner . you saved my life . by the way , i think you and hope ought to accept that key to the city . so there 'll be a parade ? steve : to hell with all that . all i want is kayla . i 'm gon na get her . sonny : hey . i thought you were going to the spectator . will : uh , no . working from home today . where 'd you run off to ? sonny : i was visiting my mom 's gravesite , and my dad was there , too . will : is he okay ? sonny : he 's fine , yeah . um , but he said something about life being too short and never knowing what 's gon na happen . got me thinking about -- will : having another baby . let 's do it . nicole : [ scoffs ] eric : why would you want me to warn brady to stay away from sarah ? xander : because i think maybe he 's sleeping with sarah and i do n't like it . eric : well , i do n't know anything about that . xander : i just told you . you 're his brother . get yourself inside the salem inn and tell him it 's a bad idea . nicole : go do your own dirty work . xander : fine . i will . nicole : brady and sarah ? eric : that does n't make any sense . nicole : and after everything we told brady about kristen , he 's still committed to her . he loves her enough to let her go on the run with the baby , and after xander let them believe that the baby was dead . eric : do you think that brady is trying to get even with xander by making him think that he and sarah are having an affair ? nicole : well , it 's been done before by me . eric : well , if you 're right , brady 's plan is obviously working . sarah : oh , come on . i 'm your partner . tell me how we 're gon na get even with victor . brady : it 's pretty simple . titan industries is his -- his everything . that man built that company from the ground up . it is his baby . since he killed my baby , it just seems right that i would return the favor . sarah : cool . what are you gon na do ? brady : i 'm gon na slowly rip that company from the inside out , and that 's just the beginning . then we 're gon na bring victor to his knees , and then i 'm gon na take that son of a bitch for everything he 's worth . kayla : mm - hmm , well i -- john : hey , doc . marlena : oh , hi . uh , victor was just telling me how you tried to kill him . victor : good of you to come back and make sure i 'm not dead . john : yeah , well , i had to have a little talk with steve . victor : [ chuckles ] when are you gon na stop wasting your time with that loser ? john : [ chuckles ] well , vic , that loser saved my life yesterday , right along with doc . victor : after letting himself be turned into stefano for god knows how long . all that street smarts , kayla 's lucky to be rid of him . john : well , i would n't count my buddy out of it just yet . [ elevator door dings ] justin : hello . kayla : justin , what are you doing here ? justin : this . kayla : justin , i -- justin : now , i know this is sudden and i know we 're in the middle of a hospital , but i just ca n't wait any longer . i love you , kayla brady , and i wan na share the rest of my life with you . would you me the honor of becoming my wife ?

[ chuckles ] nicole : i 'm glad that you 're back , i - i am . daniel : nice save , nice save . nicole : but it was such a great idea to leave . i mean , you know , now that i have absolutely no chance of -- of keeping this baby from ej , i - i 'm going to do that . that 's exactly what i 'm going to do , you know that ? do you have any suggestions ? maybe where to go ? right ? maybe fly under ej 's radar , maybe -- i know , maybe ... [ gasps ] we could go to some little island off the coast of maine or somewhere exotic , like bali . would you like to go to bali ? daniel : bali 's really nice , actually . but it 's a bad idea for you . nicole : yeah , that 's what rafe said too , but that 's really my only option . in fact , i 'm wasting time talking to you , so i 'm gon na go . daniel : what do you mean , wasting time talking to me ? no , you 're not leaving . you are not going anywhere . nicole : oh , i 'm not ? why ? daniel : no . nowhere . nicole : why ? daniel : because the last thing you need right now is to be alone . [ scene_break ] marlena : will ? [ scene_break ] roman : all right . look . i was outside that safe house when it blew up . i thought you all were dead . so nobody wants stefano punished any more than i do . bo : that 's debatable . roman : well , what is not debatable here is , nobody is going rogue on this . john : roman ... that makes us sitting ducks . we got ta play by the rules , and dimera just makes his up as he goes along . hope : we have always fought him within the bounds of law , roman . that 's the problem . bo : there are the laws we are sworn to uphold . then there are natural laws . an eye for an eye .

[ knocking at door ] eric : [ whispering ] hey . jennifer : oh , thank god you 're back , you 're safe . eric : thank you for coming . jennifer : oh , no problem . what 's going on ? eric : did anybody see you in the lobby ? jennifer : no . eric : okay . so nobody can know we 're here . jennifer : okay , well , you said you needed me to do something . wait , `` no one can know we 're here `` ? nicole : she 's all changed . [ chuckles ] what is she doing here ? jennifer : eric , you did n't . no . deimos : honestly , why would i even think of leaving salem ? abe : to avoid being convicted of kidnapping and sentenced to 20 or 30 years in statesville . deimos : yeah , well , i 'm not concerned about that . those charges are gon na be dropped eventually , i 'm sure of it . but until then , i 'm gon na stay right here . now , as my lawyer just argued -- quite effectively , i might add -- i 'm certainly not a flight risk . i have ties to the community . i have a business to run . so until that time , i 'm gon na stay here and enjoy quality time with my family ... bask in their unending love . abe : you know , you 've dodged a lot of bullets , but sooner or later , you will slip up . deimos : [ chuckles ] oh , believe me , from this point forward , i plan on being extra specially careful . abe : when you finally do pay for all the things you 've done , there will be dancing in the streets . deimos : mm . you know , i 'm really sorry for you , because you 're gon na be disappointed . now , i know that you and everyone else in this two - bit town wishes that i would just roll over and die . abe : you know , actually , they wish you would roll over and be dead . deimos : well , that 's just not gon na happen . john : this is wrong , doc . this is -- this is just so wrong . marlena : but they ca n't post that unless brady had asked for it . john : oh , i 'm not gon na let this happen . what the hell is this doing on my son 's door ? valerie : john , i 'm sorry . john : i am his father . i am the next of kin . why was n't i asked about this ? valerie : john , i called you . i did not want you to find out about this like that . john : what the hell difference does it make how i found out ? valerie : come , let 's talk in my office . john : i 'm not going into anybody 's office here . he is a -- he 's my son . he 's got -- he 's got a boy . he 's got a little boy . marlena : john . john . honey , you 've got to calm down , and right now it 's important that you listen . john : no , it 's important that she listens to me , damn it . marlena : the hospital can not do this against brady 's wishes , and they ca n't post a dnr unless it 's authorized by the patient or at least the patient 's designate . valerie : that is exactly right . when your son realized his body was n't accepting the donor heart , he had legal paperwork drawn up . john : he would n't do that . he is a fighter . valerie : i think he did it because he loves you . he loves his family . he did n't want to put you in the position of having to decide when to turn off his life support . marlena : john . brady does n't want to live like this . he would n't even think of this as living at all . john : tate 's a baby . [ sniffles ] [ somber music ] okay , um ... look at this . [ phone beeps ] [ line trilling ] [ phone ringing ] justin : john . john : get your ass down to the hospital right now . jennifer : you brought nicole back here ? i thought you were gon na take her somewhere where she could n't be found . nicole : hey , look , i had to come back . for brady . i needed to see brady again , and he needs to see holly . look , when we were in canada for that ... jennifer , we are his family now . jennifer : nicole , i am sorry . i really am , but you have to understand that everybody is at the hospital . if you go there , you will be arrested . and you -- you 'll be arrested too . nicole : okay , fine , he does n't have to go , but i do . and what you do n't know is brady loves holly . and we were a family for that short time when we were in canada , and ... and brady is the only father that she has ever known . and they bonded so completely , so maybe , maybe ... if he sees her , if -- if ... maybe he 'll hang on . jennifer : nicole , he 's unconscious . he 's not gon na know that you 're there . nicole : then we 'll say good - bye . [ sobs ] eric : you ca n't change her mind . i tried . which means i have to help her . i have to . jennifer : okay , what -- what -- what do you want me to do ? eric : we do n't want to get you into any kind of trouble , but ... listen , you worked there . you know all the entrances , all the exits , all the hideaways , and all we want is -- nicole : [ sniffles ] eric : listen , can you help us , please ? [ dramatic music ] chloe : what the hell ? deimos : chloe . what a pleasant surprise . and may i add , you 're looking quite beautiful today . chloe : what are you doing here ? why are n't you in jail ? deimos : well , i was , briefly , but now i 'm out on bail . what a glorious morning , is n't it ? chloe : well , you 'd better enjoy it , 'cause when they put you away , it 'll be for a very long time . what is it , like , 20 years for kidnapping ? deimos : wow , that is quite a buzzkill . but there is one small detail . someone has to actually prove that i did such a thing . and i 'm pretty confidant that 's not gon na happen . chloe : how dare you ? because of you , i may never see holly again . because of you , brady is dying . prison would be too good for you . you deserve to go to hell . deimos : you know , you really should n't rush to judgment , chloe . i was simply trying to rescue holly and nicole from xander . you do remember that you asked for my help , do n't you ? so i helped . the way i see it , you and i are a team . chloe : the hell we are . i made a mistake asking for your help , because i was desperate . but i see that i made a deal with the devil himself . you -- you know , when you did find nicole again , how could you let her get away from you ? i mean , i would understand why she would run away from you , because she hates you as much as i hate you . you cost me my child . deimos : all right , wait a second . did i hear that right ? did you say `` your child `` ? chloe : i do n't need to prove to you that holly belongs with me . deimos : [ laughing ] oh , my -- chloe : you do n't care about anyone or anything but yourself . i will never forgive you for what you 've done , and i will do everything in my power to make sure that you go back to prison where you belong . deimos : well , it 's nice to see that you have goals . but that is not gon na happen . john : all right , justin 's on his way . i 'm gon na go wait in brady 's room . marlena : no , no , john . john , do n't . do n't . you 're too upset . that wo n't be good for brady . [ crying ] i know , i know , i know . i 've got you . why do n't we , uh -- why do n't we sit in the waiting room , and -- and we 'll just ... we 'll wait for justin , and we 'll see what -- what brady had to say , and -- and what he wants . john : yeah . because this ... is giving up , and brady does n't give up . marlena : i know that . but i think he 's made it very clear that he does n't want to be kept alive with artificial help . john : but , doc , i would n't be able to live with myself if i did n't do everything in my power to keep him alive . there 's got to be hope . there 's got to be hope . what happens if another heart becomes available ? valerie : john , i -- i 've been working on just that . and i still have a few more calls to make , but i 've got to be honest with you , the likelihood of that is almost nonexistent . what we need now is -- is a miracle . eric : jenn , please . nicole : jennifer . i did n't know that eric was gon na call you , okay ? and you ca n't drag her into this . you ca n't ask her , of all people , to help me after everything i 've done to her . jennifer , i 'm sorry , but can you just -- please wait till after i see brady to tell anyone i was here ? jennifer : i think i remember the two of us putting our past behind us . listen , i know that there are no secret exits or entrances to the hospital , so i 'm not sure what i could tell you that would help . eric : i just thought that -- jennifer : this is the thing . i need to be with you . i need to -- i -- i need to go with you , because you need someone that knows shifts and schedules and that can keep a close eye and -- and just tell you when the coast is clear . eric : jenn , you -- jennifer : you know ? eric : would you do that ? jennifer : yes , i would do that , because i love brady . and i 'm a mom , and i have two kids that i would die for , and i know what holly means to you . and i know the risk that you are taking to see brady . so you got nicole here . do you have a way to get her out of here again ? eric : yeah , i have a plane on standby . jennifer : okay , so all i need to do is get the two of you in and out of the hospital without anyone ever knowing you were there . eric : wait , you 're not going with us . this is not -- i 'm not getting you into trouble . jennifer : are you kidding me ? my grandmother broke your dad out of jail , and she skated on it . eric : [ laughs ] there 's a reason why i liked you . nicole : jennifer ? thank you . jennifer : do n't thank me now . we got to go . we -- we got to get going . come on . nicole : okay . [ dramatic music ] justin : the nurse said you were in here . john : what the hell were you thinking , justin ? marlena : john . john . john : how could you let him sign something like that ? marlena : john , do n't . do n't -- john : what are you doing ? justin : john , john , john , john , i -- i -- i talked to brady . i really talked to brady . i played the devil 's advocate . i made sure that he thought about this from every possible angle . i did . and he had . i swear he had . marlena : we know you did . justin : this was not a quick decision on his part . i mean , we spent a great deal of time going over the details of exactly what he wanted . john , i have four sons of my own . i took this very seriously . marlena : go on . justin : i urged him to appoint an agent , and i suggested you , of course . and if you were n't here , victor , or marlena . eric . i even offered to do it myself . i said , pick someone to carry out your wishes . he said no . he was adamant . marlena : i 'm sure he did n't want to burden anybody . justin : john ? do you want me to go on ? [ exhales slowly ] he was very clear . he said if he stopped being able to breathe on his own , he did not want to be kept alive through artificial means . and two ... he did n't want anyone to revive him . he did n't want to be a burden . he knew death was most likely inevitable , and he did n't want this to be a long , drawn - out nightmare . john ... john , signing that paper was an act of love . he loved you very much . john : loves . he loves us very much . that 's present tense . justin : yes . yes . he made me write it all down , and i did , and i delivered it to the hospital this morning to make sure the staff was aware when they changed shifts . john , you should be so proud of your son . he is an amazing man . john : [ sniffles ] i need to go see him . marlena : i 'll come with you . john : no , no , no , sweetheart . it 's okay . i need to see him alone . marlena : okay . [ monitors beeping softly ] chloe : brady . [ exhales sharply ] i ... i want to cry every time i think about how sweet you were the last time that i saw you . i said that i was sorry for causing all of this . and anyone else would have probably spit in my face , but you forgave me ... like you always do . i just wanted holly back with me . and i knew that you understood , because you have tate . but now , more than anything , i just want you to wake up , okay ? i want tate to have his daddy around , and to teach him to play baseball , and to teach him to grow up to become a man like you . john : get out of here . chloe : john . john : no , no , no , no , no . you 're the reason that he 's lying there in that bed . he just went after nicole , and he got shot because you would n't give an inch ! chloe : i was just trying to protect my baby . john : no , just -- just go . just ... get out of here . maggie : abe had the decency to warn me that you 'd be showing up . deimos : hello , maggie . maggie : so did you just think you were just gon na breeze in here , thinking that -- that what , we 'd all pick up where we left off ? deimos : i do n't see why not . maggie : you know what ? i am almost as angry at you as i am at myself . i stood right there , and i thanked you for trying to save brady and nicole , and you lied through your teeth , and i bought it . [ laughing ] oh , i bought it ! i spent months in a wheelchair because of you . victor is a guest in his own home because of you . xander terrorized nicole , shot brady , because you told him to . and now brady is going to die because of you ! deimos : maggie , that is simply not true . the reason i 'm out on bail right now is because there was no evidence i did any of that . maggie : oh , no , there never is any proof of the horrible things that you do to people . but i do n't need proof to know that you are n't worthy . you are n't worthy to kiss the bottom of brady 's shoe . deimos : [ sighs ] all right , you know what ? i really am sorry for what 's happening to brady . and i know that you love him very much , so i understand that you 're distraught . but , maggie , you 're wrong . look at the facts . the second i found out about nicole , where she was , what did i do ? i took off to try and save her from xander . maggie : xander was supposed to be dead . you were the only one on the pier at the time . you said you killed him . deimos : i had every reason to believe that i had . maggie : liar ! you let him go . and you had him kidnap nicole . deimos : no . no , i tried to save her . maggie : oh , so you could take her and holly to god knows where ? no , you want to own her because you do n't love her . you want to possess her , because you do n't have a clue what love is all about . i 've lived my life , my -- my sober life clinging to the idea , the ideal that everyone gets another chance . that people can change . that they have value . that people have good in them . but you ? inside you , there 's nothing ... but a black hole . victor . brady . philip . sonny . justin . oh , they 're all so very different from each other . they 're complicated . they 're contradictory . they 're individual . they 're unique . but they are all kiriakises . and they 're all men . you are neither . [ elevator bell dings ] jennifer : linda , hi . linda : jenn , long time no see . jennifer : yeah , uh , listen . can i speak to you privately , uh , about brady 's family ? linda : oh , sure . [ baby crying ] nicole : shh , shh , sweetheart , it 's okay . we got to get out of here . eric : right . nicole : okay , you know what , the only place for me to go is the ladies ' room , so why do n't you just stay around here , and i will get her fed and changed and wait for her to settle down . shh , shh , it 's okay , sweetie . eric : okay . nicole : and then i 'll go in and see brady . okay . [ dramatic music ] chloe : i just wanted to tell brady that -- john : i said , get out . marlena : just do it . he 's going through enough without having to deal with you . chloe : i 'm sorry . [ somber music ] john : i do n't understand . you have tate . you got your boy . you ca n't just give up . it 's too soon , son . it 's not ... it 's too soon . deimos : would you like a drink , maggie ? [ chuckles ] oh , i 'm sorry . that 's right . you do n't drink . [ bottle uncorks ] deimos : you do n't have vices . you do n't have faults . [ liquid pouring ] maggie : i never said that . that 's not true . mm . and yet you feel so very comfortable passing judgment . to maggie kiriakis , née horton , salem 's very own moral sheriff . my brother ... he let me rot in a greek prison for 30 years of my life for a murder he knew i did n't commit . but he 's the man , right ? he 's the kiriakis , and i 'm not . well , let me tell you something , maggie . i do n't accept that verdict . at least i was man enough to forgive my brother for what did to me . maggie : after you put me in a wheelchair ... and you took everything from him . and now brady is dying because of you . and i 'll never see my granddaughter again because of you . i mean , you claim you want family , but you 've driven them all away ! deimos : oh , please , please . spare me . maggie : i wo n't . because you say you forgave victor ? huh . no , i think you saw all of this , and you knew you could n't be the head of titan without him . broke , homeless , victor still had power . he was kiriakis . he was titan . and you knew you could n't take it away from him , that he had to give it to you . so that is why you forgave him . deimos : wow . wow . wow , you just have me all figured out , do n't you ? maggie : yeah , well , victor 's at the hospital ... with the rest of his family , waiting for his grandson to die . mm - hmm . i 'm gon na tell him that you are to blame for that . i 'm gon na tell him you need to be removed from titan and from the family . and you and i both know ... he can do it . jennifer : where 's nicole ? is there any change ? marlena : we 're going to the chapel . jennifer : i 'm so sorry . john and marlena are going to the chapel , so brady 's room is empty . where 's nicole ? eric : holly -- she started to cry , so nicole took her to the ladies ' room to change her . jennifer : i can take care of the baby . eric : no , she wants the three of them to be together one last time . she said this was all my fault . she 's right . listen , i need to go in and see him . jennifer : all right , i 'll stand guard . eric : all right , just -- just stay here , okay ? jennifer : okay . eric : i 'll be right back . [ door closes ] justin : the day just keeps getting better and better . deimos : how 's brady doing ? justin : skip the performance , okay ? i know you do n't give a damn . deimos : of course i do . he 's family . justin : [ chuckles ] yes , he is . but you 're not . deimos : i 'm about to get my feelings hurt . seems like no one has anything nice to say about me these days . so i 'll tell you what . now that i 'm back on the job , my first order of business will be to restore titan morale . what do you think about a company picnic , huh ? justin : oh , there 's gon na be a celebration of some kind . when the news hit that titan 's ceo was in jail for kidnapping , the titan board called an emergency meeting this morning . actually , victor called it . victor ran it . the upshot : you 're out on your ass , permanently . and by the way , it was a unanimous vote . need help packing ?

belle : you want me to move into the mansion with you ? philip : you ... and shawn . belle : oh , um , i do n't know . i think that might be a little weird . philip : i 'm sorry , belle . i just assumed you and shawn would be living together . belle : oh , that 's not what i meant . i meant the three of us in your father 's house , you know ? we do n't really feel all warm and fuzzy about your dad . philip : you can stay in the guest wing , away from my dad . you wo n't have to interact with him at all . and let 's face it . the accommodations are a little better than the bikini hotel . belle : well , i do n't know . maybe i can request a room with an ocean view . philip : you got it . i 'll have the ocean delivered no later than tomorrow . belle : sweet ! philip : so , can i tell the maid to start getting the room ready for you and shawn ? somewhere down the hall , probably . it 's a little more private . what are you thinking ? belle : um ...

[ scene_break ] sami : tony turned down my offer ? what is he , insane ? e.j . : i think we both know the answer to that question . sami : you know what ? fine . if he wants to watch stefano die some slow , painful death , it is okay with me . e.j . : no , that 's not what tony wants . sami : that 's what he 's gon na get because he needs my baby 's stem cells to save stefano 's life . e.j . : samantha , he did n't even tell father . he wants the baby for himself . sami : oh , that son of a -- i will kill him before i let him touch my child . e.j . : take it easy . sami : i 'm not gon na take it easy . e.j . , this is my baby that we are talking about . and i 'm willing to let him have stem cells from my child , which everyone else thinks i 'm crazy to do , and that 's not enough for him ? e.j . : this is n't about saving my father with tony , okay ? this is about him positioning himself to be the head of my family . that 's what 's important to him . sami : fine . fine . let him let stefano die . let him take over your stupid family . you think i care ? e.j . : samantha , please . please . sami : i made the first move . and now the ball is in tony 's court . if he does n't want to do anything about it , that is his problem . e.j . : you 're wrong . it 's our problem 'cause he 's gon na try to kill us both .

[ scene_break ] shawn d. : philip , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry for everything . philip : there are two things i know about life -- no one gets out alive , and everyone has regrets , wishes they 'd done things differently . belle : okay . who says we 're gon na die , okay ? instead of planning our burials at sea , let 's make a promise , okay ? if we survive -- shawn d. : which we will . belle : then we go back to salem , and we work things out . no more fighting over claire . no more kidnappings . no more double - crossings . we all love her . we will raise her together . deal ? shawn d. : deal . philip : deal . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : yeah , that is what we discussed , philip , but that does n't include breakfast , lunch , and dinner . philip : you still do n't trust me , do you ? shawn d. : i never said that . philip : you sure as hell are n't acting like it . shawn d. : i want to know why this is so important for you that we all become roommates . belle : if we all live under one roof , we can get a lot more accomplished . we can work around the clock . we can take shifts if we need to . philip : all the family resources at your fingertips . you drop victor kiriakis ' name , and people will do almost anything you want . shawn d. : yeah , i know . i 've been there , okay ? belle : shawn . shawn d. : i 'm sorry . i should n't have said that . it 's just hard for me to shut down all those old feelings . philip : we 're on the clock here , shawn . we need to make some decisions . belle : i think we should do it . i think we should move in . shawn d. : and if we do n't ? and if we do n't find claire ? belle : do n't even think that . do n't let your pride get in the way . shawn d. : this has got nothing to do with my pride . belle : then what is it ? philip : come on , shawn . whatever your objections are , let 's just air it out right now . what 's the real reason you do n't want to move in ?

[ knock at door ] eric : hey , mom , come in . what 's going on ? marlena : the wedding is off . eric : what ? marlena : yeah . brady and kristen are finished . brady : i ca n't believe you spent the night out here on this bench with me . nicole : well , you know , it 's really no big deal . did n't have much to do anyway . brady : you could 've slept , nicole . nicole : sleep is overrated . brady : you should go home . nicole : yeah ? and what about you ? brady : [ sighs ] i do n't really know where home is supposed to be . home was with kristen . that was a lie , though . it was all a big damn lie . ej : believe me , i 'm not in the mood either , but i will find a way to muddle through the wedding . no , ab -- look , you have the most valid excuse in the world for not being there , okay ? good . will you give william my best ? all right , i 'm glad he 's feeling stronger this morning . oh , darling , do you mind ? i just saw chad . i 'm gon na touch base with him . can i call you back in a moment ? okay , good . i love you . bye . hello , brother . chad : hello . you , uh , you heard from kristen today ? ej : mm . let 's see , i would imagine she is surrounded by a small tribe of stylists , preparing for her wander down the aisle . chad : hmm , um , those two cops outside with coffees ? ej : yeah , i saw 'em . why ? chad : yeah , i think i overheard them say that they brought kristen into the police station last night . hope : are you going to acknowledge what 's going on in that photo , or are we just gon na sit here all day ? kristen : without an attorney , the only thing i 'll acknowledge is that there appears to be a misunderstanding . hope : oh , really ? well , how else can we interpret what appears to be you in this photograph paying off the man identified as brady 's attacker ? stefano : this interrogation is over . my daughter is coming home with me , unless , of course , you , uh , plan to arrest her . john : things did n't go as planned , vic . kristen : john , you do n't think i knew that you wanted brady to walk in on us ? i wanted the same thing . i just wanted you to think that it was your idea . john : and why the hell would i want that ? kristen : because you knew it would be the end of brady and me , just like i knew it would be the end of you and marlena . john : kristen seemed to be one step ahead of me through the whole thing . until she was n't . victor : what the hell does that mean ? johns : means it 's over . brady 's not marrying her . but it did n't have anything to do with what i did . marlena : brady refused to listen to anybody that talked about kristen , but then he saw the picture of her paying his attacker , and it was obvious that he 'd been used . eric : you know , as soon as i ran into kristen , i knew she was plotting something . it 's just that brady , you know , he was ... marlena : what , determined ? eric : in love . marlena : [ exhales ] i 've left several messages for him . he has n't returned my calls . eric : well , as hard as this may be for him , it 's best that he learned the truth before he married that woman . now maybe our family can finally begin to heal . i 'm not just talking about brady . marlena : i know that . eric : mom , you were responsible for exposing kristen 's lies . so do n't you think john will not only forgive you , but be grateful to you ?

maggie : i 'm going to check with victor and see if he knows . jennifer : this is crazy . daniel : uh - huh , i know . i know . jennifer : well , i do n't know what to do . i mean , i cleared my whole schedule for here today , so i guess i 'll just go home and get some stuff done . daniel : okay , well , i got ta check on will and rafe , go for a run , clear my head a little but , but maybe call you in a couple hours , and we 'll go get lunch or something . jennifer : yeah , yeah . that sounds good . daniel : okay . yeah , my car 's ready , so -- the shop called earlier . so i 'll be able to pick you up . jennifer : daniel , i still ca n't even believe that someone slashed your tires . i mean , really , who would do something like that ? daniel : i -- jennifer : [ groans ] rory : so what 's up for today ? anyone else 's tires need slashing ? jj : huh ? rory : dude , i said what 's up for today , man ? jj : i do n't know . we just chill . smoke out . rory : yeah ? smoke what ? we finished the last of my stash . jj : oh , that sucks . rory : dude . so , you know , i think about this kind of stuff usually , like , when i 'm high , but if i had enough to buy more , and i could sell some of that at a profit , we 'd be able to fund everything that we smoke ourselves . jj : well , nice idea , man , but with no cash -- hold on . wait a minute . stefano : kristen , my dear , could you please tell me how hope got a hold of that picture of you ? kristen : marlena . marlena got her hands on it and raced right to brady with it . stefano : hmm . so then he figured out what was going on with you and sy . kristen : yes , he did , and he called the whole thing off , which is ironic because i 'd finally realized how deeply in love with him i am . stefano : when exactly did you realize that ? kristen : when i could n't go through with seducing his father and having him catch us in the act . i realized that i could n't stand the thought of losing him . stefano : and you lost him anyway . [ footsteps approach ] ej : kristen ? what on earth is going on ? brady : nicole , i 'm sorry . i know you 're just trying to help . but unless you can tell me why i keep making the same mistake over and over again ... [ sighs ] falling for these women who lie to me , and -- and i 'm too stupid to see it -- nicole : [ sighs ] well , since i fall under the category of women who have lied to you , i think that i 'm qualified to tell you the why . because you 're too trusting . and you see the good in everyone , and that does n't make you stupid . it makes you kind and generous . brady : i really loved her . nicole : i know . i saw the way you looked at her . [ sighs ] brady : she was probably the worst possible choice , though , was n't she ? her -- her hatred for marlena , her history with my dad . but i really loved her . i really thought that she and i -- how could i have been so wrong about that ? there are women who sacrifice so much . daniel : hey , did you , uh , did you reach victor ? maggie : no , so i stopped by to see will , but he was sleeping . where 's jennifer ? daniel : oh , she went home . maggie : oh . daniel : she had the day off for the wedding , so -- maggie : right . oh , well . she probably wants to spend as much time as possible with jj , now that he 's back home . daniel : yeah . hey , mom . maggie : hmm ? daniel : um , what was he , uh , what was he like when he was younger ? maggie : jj ? daniel : yeah . maggie : oh , my goodness . well , you never saw such a sweet little boy . he was so smart and funny . why do you ask , daniel ? you two are getting along , are n't you ? daniel : uh ... jj : dude , you got ta go , man . use the back door . rory : what ? why ? jj : my mom 's home , and she 's not supposed to be . rory : are we doing anything wrong ? jj : it 's just , the less she knows about who my friends are , the better . rory , get out , man ! dude , i 'm serious . rory : all right , fine . jj : go . hey , mom . jennifer : oh , hey . jj : i thought you had a wedding to go to today . jennifer : uh , i did . plans changed . jj : hmm , that 's weird . jennifer : oh , you do n't know the half of it . what have you been up to today ? jj : uh , uh , i slept late , and i had some breakfast . and i 've been thinking a lot . jennifer : about ? jj : how bad i feel about what i 've done . eric : why are n't you saying anything ? mom , do you not think it 's possible that you and john can work things out ? kristen : i ca n't help but be a little nosy , 'cause it 's so weird . a couple hours ago , he was in my hotel room . actually ... [ laughs ] he was on my bed . he had me on my back . should i go on ? marlena : honey , the person i 'm most worried about now is brady . and i 'm hoping that kristen is locked away in some jail cell where she ca n't get to him anymore . hope : sorry , she 's still a free woman . unfortunately , kristen is not in jail . yet . kristen : father , would you mind ? i 'd like to talk to my bros alone , please . ej : so ... what 's going on ? kristen : what 's going on ? well , i was at the police station all night being interrogated till about a half an hour ago . chad : interrogated for what ? kristen : um , apparently , there 's a photo where it appears that i am handing money to the man that attacked brady last year . chad : so -- so what are they saying ? that you paid the guy to mug you and take out brady ? kristen : that 's what marlena and hope are trying to prove , yeah . chad : ah . kristen : it 's a misunderstanding . chad : right , right , so ... so it 's not true . kristen : i 'm not going to jail . i can assure you of that much . ej : so what does brady think about this ? kristen : he did n't take it very well . chad : [ scoffs ] the -- the wedding 's in a couple hours . kristen : no . it 's not . he called it off . victor : just tell me what happened , john . i mean , if brady did n't walk in and catch you seducing kristen , what was it that finally made him see the light of day about that horrible woman ? john : what does it matter , vic ? brady 's not with her . that 's all that 's important . mission accomplished . victor : [ sighs ] yes , i suppose so . but then why the hell are n't you happy about it ? brady : did you go to her room , dad ? did you try to -- did you try to seduce her , dad ? yes or no ? john : got a few things i need to explain to my boy . victor : yeah , i suppose you do . john : have you seen him ? victor : no . i assume he 's with nicole , though , since she 's the one who sent the text about the wedding . i 'm not too thrilled about that , but then , lesser of two evils . john : i hope that he 's still with her , 'cause i 've got ta talk to him . [ phone rings ] nicole : uh , your father 's calling me . brady : do n't answer that . nicole : all right . straight to voicemail . brady : thank you . nicole : [ sighs ] but would it be such a terrible thing if you did talk to john or marlena ? brady : are you kidding me ? the last thing i want right now is an hour - long therapy session with dr. evans , and if i do n't see my dad ever again , i 'm gon na be fine with that . nicole : all right , i 'm sure you do n't mean that . brady : [ sighs ] i need to be alone . i appreciate you , and i 'm glad you hung in all night with me , but i -- nic , i just need some space , okay ? nicole : okay . fair enough . but one last thing . i know -- i know how you feel . i know things seem hopeless , and they 're never gon na be different , but they will . look , you 've gotten through it before , and you 'll get through it again . okay , and one more one last thing . brady : yeah , one last thing . what ? nicole : if you think that you 're gon na get through this on your own , it 's not gon na work . you need people who love you to help you . daniel : well , i 'm just -- i 'm just curious . i mean , well , jennifer thinks that jj 's still having a tough time with his father 's death , and , well , why would n't he ? you know , it was n't that long ago , and , you know , he 's so young to have lost his dad , you know . maggie : yeah , he is . and in such a tragic way . but he 's home now . so jennifer can help him through it , thank god . daniel : right , yeah , no , i -- yeah , i think , you know , jj and jennifer , they need each other right now , and i 'm gon na do whatever it takes to be there for both of them . jj : i need to be honest with you , mom . jennifer : okay . jj : i finally understand that i really screwed up getting myself kicked out of boarding school the way i did . i let you down . i worried you , and i hate that . jennifer : well , you know , you have been through a lot lately . jj : but still . it 's been hard for you too . and i want to let you know that i 'm going to turn this all around . i am totally going to ace summer school , and i am going to pay back dr. jonas for the broken mp3 player and the train set . jennifer : okay , well , um , that is great . jj : i want to make you proud , mom . jennifer : i am proud . i 'm really proud of you right this minute . even though i 'm a little disappointed in your recent behavior , i want you to know that i understand . i really do . because i was not a perfect teenager . but you know that . jj : thank you for getting it . and now i 'm gon na start looking for a job . jennifer : um , listen , i know that i was upset about the mp3 player and the train , and i wanted you to get a job so you could pay daniel back , but then i realized , you know , you 're going to summer school and , i mean , that might be a lot to handle . you have classes every day , right ? jj : yeah , yeah . i mean , but i can work at night . mom , i really want to buy all my own books and pay back dr. jonas . jennifer : no , i mean , i - i appreciate that you want to be so responsible . i do , but -- you know what ? i am making an executive decision here because i want you to do great in summer school , and i do n't want a job to hold you back from doing that , okay ? and i also think that it 's really important to have fun too . so ... here you go . jj : what are you doing ? jennifer : well , i think that this will cover your expenses while you 're in school . jj : wow . mom , this is incredible . you do n't know how much this means to me . hope : bottom line , i could n't hold kristen based on a photograph alone . marlena : of course not . that was just wishful thinking on my part . hope : if we can find sy and bring him in here , maybe we can cut a deal with him to get him to implicate kristen . i 'll keep you posted . marlena : [ chuckles ] hope : good to see you , eric . eric : you too . i know you 're disappointed . but , mom , the important thing is that brady is no longer under kristen 's spell . marlena : i just hope he 's okay . nicole : he 's not exactly okay , but he 's in good hands . maggie : so was that all you heard ? victor : the wedding was cancelled , yes . maggie : i wish i knew what happened . brady : i can tell you . victor : brady . maggie : sweetie , are you all right ? brady : kristen was n't the , uh , she was n't the person i thought she was , and she never loved me . maggie : oh . i 'm so , so sorry , brady . oh , sweetheart . brady : go on . go on , granddad . i know you want to ... i know you want to say it . `` i told you so , brady . `` just get it over with and say it to me . ej : chad , would you mind if i spoke with kristen alone ? chad : sure . i 'm really sorry , kristen . kristen : thank you . ej : all right . so -- kristen : no . no lectures . what ? what ? why are you looking at me like that ? ej : i 'm a little taken aback . i mean , you ... you seem genuinely upset . kristen : oh , me ? do i really ? it 's amazing . how could i be upset ? i mean , why would i be upset ? the man that i love just dumped me . oh , but who cares ? there 's millions of fish in the sea . ej : the man you loved ? please , do n't tell me you had feelings for brady black . kristen : yeah , i know . obviously , i can tell that 's extremely shocking . you ca n't believe it , but even i am capable of a real feeling or two . you can pick your jaw up off the floor now , eej . ej : uh , but you were working an angle with brady , kristen . come on . i mean , falling in love with him was never part of your original plan . you were just seducing him so you could , you know , cause damage for john and marlena 's relationship . kristen : that 's true . that was the plan . but , see , then i lost sight of my initial intentions , and i let my priorities change , and then when i did that , the whole thing just went to hell . ej : people plan . god laughs . that 's what they say . kristen : yeah . nobody 's laughing this morning . ej : well , at least you 're not in jail . kristen : that 's my brother . always looking at the bright side . ej : that 's because there always is a bright side . come on . look , it may be cold comfort to you now , but you 're strong . you 're resilient . you 'll come back . look , if there is anything i can do to help you move on , just let me know . kristen : who said i was moving on ? jolly rancher crunch n ' chew . jennifer : what is it ? jj : mom , i do n't think this is enough for books and what i owe dr. jonas . jennifer : really ? i - i feel like that 's a lot of money . jj : [ laughs ] it is . it 's really generous . it 's just -- i do n't feel comfortable taking this from you , you know . just taking this check -- it does n't seem right . jennifer : all right , well , honey , you know what ? maybe it would be good to get a part - time job . you know , what about the coffee shop ? your cousin sonny , i 'm sure he could help you out and give you some hours there , okay ? jj : yeah , good idea . dad always said hard work builds character . jennifer : yeah , he did say that . jj : mm - hmm . i kind of miss all of his lectures , even though they were a little hard to follow and went on forever . jennifer : [ laughs ] jj : maybe that 's what kept me in line all those years . maybe i counted on him more than i knew . jennifer : yeah . you know what , honey ? let 's just -- [ sighs ] let 's not think about a job right now , okay ? really , let 's , um , just focus on school , because i really believe that your dad would really want you to focus on studying . jj : you think so ? jennifer : yes . [ sniffles ] i do . so ... this should , um ... you know , this should pay your debts , all right ? and this should give you just a fresh start , okay ? jj : [ laughs ] god . it 's perfect . you are the best . eric : so you sat with him in the park all night ? nicole : he said he was n't gon na sleep anyway , so -- marlena : where is he now ? nicole : i dropped him off at maggie and victor 's . marlena : i 've got to go see him . nicole : oh , marlena , wait . um , gosh , you know what ? with all due respect , he said he did n't want to talk to you or john . he was pretty adamant about that . marlena : okay , well , i 'll honor that for the moment . thank you for taking him to his grandfather . eric , talk to you soon . eric : okay , take care , mom . you know , i appreciate you looking after my brother last night . nicole : he 'd do it for me . in fact , he has done it for me . eric : yeah , i feel bad for him . nicole : this is gon na be a tough time for him . but he 's gon na be okay . i 'll make sure of it . ej : so when you say you are , uh , not moving on , are you talking about the situation with brady , or are you talking about revenge with john and marlena ? [ knock at door ] chad : too soon ? kristen : nope , not at all . i need to get a shower and get out of these clothes . oh , and ej ... ej : yeah . kristen : please , please keep sami out of my face . i do n't have the stomach for it . okay ? thank you . chad : kristen . kristen : mm - hmm ? chad : we 'll help you through this , okay ? ej : we will . you have our love and support , sister . kristen : thanks . brady : i 'm sorry to put you through this . both of you . i 'm sorry . maggie : we 're here for you , brady . whatever you need to do . brady : [ sighs ] what i -- what i need to do is probably be responsible and get myself to a meeting . maggie : i can go with you if you 'd like . brady : that 's -- that 's all right . maggie : hmm . brady : i , um , i would rather deal with this alone . and , uh , i have one more favor . i do n't really know where i 'm gon na go right now . i - i always felt that this was home . victor : this is your home , brady . stay as long as you 'd like . brady : thank you . thank you . maggie : mm . brady : uh , look , one other thing . do n't -- do n't contact my father , okay ? i ca n't -- i ca n't see him now . i do n't think i ever want to see him . maggie : [ sighs ] jj : rory ! payday , man . rory : what the -- jj : [ laughing ] my mom wrote me two checks , and i just cashed them . rory : all right , bro ! jj : right ? that should be enough to start our own little business , right ? rory : definitely . man , we 're never gon na have to pay for our own weed again . whoo ! daniel : jj ? hope : so this whole time , you 've -- i mean , for the last two weeks , you 've had that picture of kristen ? ciara : mommy , i tried to tell you , but you would n't listen to me . hope : ciara , i -- ciara : you never do . hope : [ sighs ] you know what ? you 're right . you are so right , and i am so sorry , sweetheart . i do . i need to ... i need to do a much better job of listening to you . no more secrets , okay ? ciara : you 're talking about the letter i hid too . i 'll be good , mommy . hope : you are good . what do you mean ? ciara , you 're my little angel . do n't you know that ? i love you . i love you so , so much , baby . i want you to be honest with me from now on , okay ? i want you to feel that you can tell mommy anything , anything at all , because you know what ? i 'm on your side , always on your side , no matter what . ciara : can i have my picture back now ? i want to give it to brady and kristen . hope : they 've seen it . ciara : they did ? hope : yes . ciara : did they like it ? hope : come here . come here . oh , sweetheart . i love you . you 're my girl . i love you so much . maggie : victor , where is brady ? his old room is ready . victor : shh . maggie : oh . [ gasps ] oh , goodness . well , he needs his rest . victor : i could just strangle that woman for what she 's done to my grandson . maggie : normally , i would n't be happy to hear you talk that way , but in kristen 's case , i would n't mind slapping her around a bit myself . i think we need to give him a little privacy . maybe we should go to the hospital and visit will . and the baby . victor : good idea . maggie : okay . john : hey , doc . have you seen brady ? marlena : no , no , i have n't . but i saw nicole , and she was with him last night . she said that he 's doing as well as he can under the circumstances . john : hmm . marlena : and she also said he made it very clear he does not want to talk to us . john : ah . look , sweetheart -- marlena : john ... if it 's about what happened last night between you and kristen ... i 've decided ... i do n't want to know . jennifer : oh , hey . i just wanted you to know that when you 're ready to talk , i 'm here , okay ? you know , you were so supportive of me and daniel when we were going through a really rough time , so i just -- i want to return the favor . all right , kristen . just know that i am thinking about you , okay ? call me anytime . bye - bye . daniel : oh , it 's good to see you . how 's it going ? jj : fine , everything 's okay . but , um , my friend and i were just going down to school to pick up our textbooks for summer school , so ... daniel : yeah , no , yeah . okay , yeah . i was just in the middle of a -- of a run anyway , so i 'll catch you later , okay ? yeah . jj : been doing more of that since your car is in the shop , i bet . daniel : i 'm picking it up now , actually . good as new . jj : [ laughs ] not for long . nicole : so i 'm gon na make myself available for brady 24/7 for as long as he needs me . eric : right . nicole : okay ? i mean , that means i wo n't be here very much . [ sighs exasperatedly ] what is that look for ? eric : i do n't know . i 'm just wondering , is -- is being there for brady the only reason you 're doing this , nicole ? nicole : excuse me ? eric : our conversation last night . nicole : oh , you mean the one where you accused me of having impure thoughts about you ? [ sighs ] look . i know -- i know i was angry , but i really think we need to put that behind us , all right ? just forget about it . and i swear , i 'm just taking time off to help brady . he comes first , okay ? before anything . are you okay with that ? eric : yeah , sure . nicole : okay . see you later . john : doc . i would like the opportunity to explain . marlena : all this time , i 've been fighting so hard for us . and now -- ah ! good- bye , john . ej : other than the wedding day being off , no , nothing . that 's all i know , darling . okay , i 'll call you if i know anything else . i love you . bye . chad : well , at least i wo n't get blamed for ruining this wedding too . ej : not this one , no . look , i think you and i should be good brothers and strike down anything that even remotely whispers `` wedding day `` . so roll up your sleeves . chad : well , i just feel bad for kristen . ej : as do i . but , uh , i have a funny feeling she will bounce back . chad : yeah .
