Xander: Sarah. Can’t believe it. You’re really here.
Gwen as sarah: Well, yeah.
Xander: Oh, thank god you’re all right. Thank god! [Takes deep breath]
Xander: [Sighs]
Abigail: Kate.
Kate: What? Oh, hi.
Abigail: I see something’s wrong. Did you get bad news about philip?
Kate: No, actually. Nothing on that front. Have you ever been going about your business and suddenly find yourself face-to-face with two of the people you despise the most in the world?
Abigail: Hasn’t happened in a while. Do I know these people?
Kate: Yeah, well, um, they definitely did damage to your life.
Abigail: So it’s gotta be jake and gabi, right?
Kate: Give the woman a big cigar.
Jake: Did I remember to thank you for saving my life back there?
Gabi: I think so.
Jake: If you hadn’t pulled me off that curb, kate would’ve run right over me.
Gabi: Hell hath no fury.
Jake: No, I do not scorn her, okay? I just–
Gabi: Dumped her? Hey, listen. Watch yourself. She may still have the hots for you.
Jake: Okay, okay. I’ll watch myself if you promise to watch yourself.
Gabi: What does that mean?
Jake: My nephew, johnny, he’s got the hots for you.
Gabi: [Scoffing chuckle]
Demon johnny: Checkmate.
[Sighs] I’m sorry, elvis, but the king had to be sacrificed for the greater good, or in this case, the greater evil.
Judge: Jason smith is your last witness. Am I correct?
Ej: His testimony should be stricken from the record. Every word of it was a lie!
Judge: One more outburst from you, mr. Dimera, and I will cite you for contempt.
Ej: [Sighs]
Belle: He means it. Keep your mouth shut.
Ej: Okay.
Judge: Ms. Trask?
Melinda: I have a sworn deposition from the victim, samantha brady dimera, and i request that it be entered into evidence.
Judge: So ordered. It’s unfortunate that mrs. Dimera didn’t testify in person.
Belle: I would like it entered into the record that defense counsel had no chance to cross examine.
Melinda: Mrs. Dimera did not feel safe enough to be present, your honor. Not with her kidnapper being seated at the defense table.
Belle: Objection!
Judge: Sustained. Please refrain from commentary, ms. Trask. Any further witnesses?
Melinda: No, your honor. The prosecution rests.
Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”
[Soft orchestration]
Abigail: I know how much jake and gabi’ve hurt you, but, I mean, it’s all worked out for the best, right? You’re with roman now.
Kate: And I’m happy.
Abigail: So all’s well that ends well.
Kate: The hortons always say that.
Abigail: No. Actually, that was shakespeare, but.
Kate: Yeah, actually, I know that. My point is that obviously, I do not forgive betrayal as easily as you do.
Abigail: But you got even, though, right? I mean, you voted with ej and chad to fire jake from dimera.
Kate: What are you doing here, anyway? Shouldn’t you be covering ej’s trial?
Abigail: Well, I’m actually working on another story about my cousin, sarah.
Kate: Oh. So what’s up with her? Why did she act like she was with rex this whole time?
Abigail: That’s what I’m trying to find out. I promised maggie. She’s obviously really worried. She thought she knew where her daughter was for the last year and turns out she was wrong.
Kate: Yeah, well, that had to have been tough on maggie.
Abigail: Mm-hmm. And xander is actually really upset, too, so he and I are working together.
Kate: That’s quite an odd couple.
Abigail: Yeah.
[Chuckles] Yeah. But he and i have one very important thing in common, that we both care about sarah and we’re very determined to figure out where she’s been for the last year.
Gwen as sarah: Get off me, you creep!
Maggie: Sarah! Xander has been as worried about you as I have.
Gwen as sarah: Okay, yeah, well, now you can see that I am fine, so you can go back to wherever you came from.
Xander: I’m not budging until you and I talk.
Gwen as sarah: See? Now do you see why I didn’t want to even want him to know where I was? I was afraid this neanderthal would find me and drag me back to his cave.
Maggie: Sweetheart, I know that you changed your mind about marrying xander, but I also know that you were very much in love with him at one time. And he was terribly distraught when you left. The least you can do is give him ten minutes of your time.
Gwen as sarah: Fine. Ten minutes.
Xander: Like, I know I kind of just barged in on you two. Would you mind giving us that ten minutes alone?
Maggie: Um, why don’t we talk about this out in the hall? Don’t you go anywhere. Come on.
Gwen as sarah: [Blows air] Okay. [Takes deep breath] Keep it together, gwen. You fooled the mother. You can fool xander, too.
Chad: Hey.
Johnny: Hey.
Chad: What are yo up to?
Johnny: Oh, just playing some chess against myself. Do you know what happened to nonno’s set?
Chad: Yeah, I replaced it with the one abigail bought. It’s great, isn’t it?
Johnny: You don’t think that’s sort of disrespectful?
Chad: It’s a game.
Johnny: It’s part of who he was.
Chad: All right, look. I didn’t find out stefano was my father until I was in college, so I didn’t grow up hearing about the whole legacy thing like you did.
Johnny: Is that why you didn’t have any problems selling my father down the river in court?
Judge: Is the defense prepared to present its case?
Belle: Your honor, the defense was not offered an opportunity to cross-examine samantha brady dimera and mrs. Dimera’s deposition offered no direct evidence of any connection whatsoever between my client and the kidnapping.
Judge: I’ll take that under advisement.
Belle: Thank you, your honor. It is our contention that the prosecution failed to make a prima facie case against ej dimera, therefore we request that the case be dismissed for lack of evidence.
Judge: So you won’t be calling any witnesses?
Belle: That is correct.
Ej: No. It isn’T. I’ll be testifying. My asthma felt anything but normal.
Belle: Uh, your honor, I need a moment to confer with my client.
Judge: Make it brief.
Belle: Are you out of your mind? Everything is going well. Trask is not making her case.
Ej: Jason smith said under oath that he was taking orders from me and chad got on the stand and backed him up. Their testimony needs to be refuted. I can tell that this judge is not a fan of mine, but I really–
Belle: ‘Cause you keep shooting off your big mouth in this courtroom.
Ej: He holds my future in his hands. If I can’t sway him, then he’s going to find me guilty.
Belle: You are a lawyer. You know if you get up there and testify that trask’s gonna cross-examine you and she’s gonna bring up every terrible thing you have ever done.
Ej: I need to testify on my own behalf.
Belle: It is my professional advice that you not do that.
Melinda: Can we please get on with this? [Scoffs]
Judge: Has the defense reached a decision?
Belle: We have, your honor.
[Clears throat] The defense calls ej dimera.
Chad: Your father swore to me he was being set up, that he had nothing to do with sami’s kidnapping. I believed him. But yesterday, I found out that every word out of that man’s mouth is a damn lie.
Johnny: What do you mean?
Chad: He forced himself on my wife.
Johnny: What?
Chad: In the witness room at the courthouse. I walked in on him and he was slobbering all over her.
[Soft tense music]
Johnny: Maybe it wasn’t what it seemed.
Chad: You don’t think I know what kissing is?
Johnny: What I meant was maybe the feeling was mutual.
Chad: Not a chance. Abigail was appalled. She was sick to her stomach.
Johnny: I’m sorry, I guess I’m just remembering that affair they had back when I was a kid. Mom said they couldn’t keep their hands off each other.
Chad: Trust me, I haven’t forgotten about that. Yesterday, that was all ej. And it was in that moment that i realized that he’s been playing me on every level since the minute he came back here.
Jake: I still can’t believe johnny hit on you.
Gabi: Why not? Guys hit on me all the time.
Jake: Because the horny, little bastard did it right in front of me. And wait, what do you mean guys all the time?
Gabi: Doesn’t matter.
Jake: It does to me.
Gabi: Look, it’s very sweet, but if johnny has a thing for me, we need to figure out a way to use it to our advantage.
Jake: Why?
Gabi: Because he’s voting ej’s shares of dimera’s stock as well as his, so he’s a heavy hitter now.
Jake: Oh, yeah, all right. Look, I see what you’re saying. I don’t like it, but I see it. If johnny’s on our side, it gives us leverage to get victor on the dimera board.
Gabi: And then we’ll be cruising our way to a double takeover. You’ll run dimera and I’ll run titan.
Jake: You make it sound awfully easy.
Gabi: Maggie’s behind us.
Jake: Yeah. Still surprised about that, to be honest.
Gabi: Maggie wants victor to slow down. She’s no dummy. She’s not going to stand in the way of a good idea.
Gwen as sarah: [Sighs] You’re finally back.
Maggie: You know what? I think I’m gonna let you and xander talk privately.
Gwen as sarah: You’re gonna leave me alone with him?
Maggie: Well, I have to speak with henderson about getting your room ready.
Gwen as sarah: I’m not staying.
Maggie: Excuse me?
Gwen as sarah: I got in late last night, so I took a room at the salem inn.
Maggie: Well, you can’t stay there indefinitely.
Gwen as sarah: I’m not. I booked a flight for later today.
Maggie: You just got here.
Gwen as sarah: But… my patients. They need me.
Maggie: Where are you working? I don’t know– where are you living?
Gwen as sarah: I don’t want to say in front of him. I came back so that you wouldn’t worry and now you don’t have to.
Maggie: Then, um… this is goodbye.
Gwen as sarah: Yeah.
Maggie: Okay, then. You need to call me regularly from now on, is that clear?
[Soft tense music]
Xander: She misses you so much. You can’t even spend one more day with her?
Gwen as sarah: [Scoffs] You’re not thinking of her. You’re only thinking of yourself.
Xander: That’s not true, and you know it.
Gwen as sarah: Just say what you came to say. Clock’s ticking.
Xander: Fine. I will.
[Sighs] When you left me that day, I– you sounded like a woman I didn’t even know. And you still do. Why is that? This is the sound of nature breathing.
Jake: I hate to even ask this, but how do you suppose you’re gonna get johnny on our side?
Gabi: I’m gonna flirt with him. Make him think I have the hots for him, too.
Jake: No freakin’ way.
Gabi: He’s a kid.
Jake: He’s old enough.
Gabi: How am I gonna– I’ll have him wrapped around my finger before you know it. And then I’ll be calling the shots.
Jake: Can one of your shots be keep your damn hands off me?
Gabi: Once we have him on the hook, we don’t want to lose him.
Jake: Wait a minute. Are you–are you saying you’re gonna sleep with him to get his vote?
Chad: I’m telling you the truth about your dad. And I’m doing it for your sake. Swear to god.
Johnny: [Sighs] I know this isn’t the first time my dad’s crossed a line he shouldn’t have crossed.
Chad: Abby had to push him off of her.
Johnny: I’m sorry I said that about you guys. I know you guys love each other very much and i shouldn’t have implied that she was fine with what he was doing.
Chad: It’s fine. As long as you still don’t think that.
Johnny: [Chuckles] And my dad had me thinking that he was the real victim here.
Chad: Well, he’s good at that.
Johnny: Yeah. He told me that lucas kidnapped my mom and that you were framing him for it. I guess he wasn’t just lying to you. Sounds like he was doing it to me, too.
Belle: Did you have your wife kidnapped?
Ej: No, I did not.
Belle: You’re under oath, mr. Dimera.
Ej: I’m aware of that.
Belle: Tell the court about the day mrs. Dimera went missing.
Ej: I confronted samantha with evidence that she’d been cheating on me. She denied it at first, but then she admitted it. I’ll admit I was angry. I couldn’t see past her betrayal. But she’s the mother of my children. No matter what she did to me, I never would have chloroformed her and made her my prisoner. I would never separate her from our children, I swear.
Belle: No further questions.
Judge: Ms. Trask?
Melinda: Mr. Dimera, I was so hoping we’d have a chance to chat. You said in your sworn testimony, you stated that you would never chloroform your wife or separate her from her children. Is that correct?
Ej: It is.
Melinda: And has it slipped your mind that you’ve already done both of those things to mrs. Dimera?
Gwen as sarah: I’m the same person I always was.
Xander: No. Something’s off. I kissed you goodnight and the day before our wedding, you told me how much you loved me. But by the morning, you were shagging rex brady.
Gwen as sarah: Yeah. Because I came to my senses about you and he was there. It’s understandable. He’s my ex-husband.
Xander: And you told everyone that you’re running off with him, but you didn’T. You turned on him like you did on me.
Gwen as sarah: Yes, ’cause i realized that I’m in no shape to be with any man, so I told rex that I needed time to figure myself out on my own.
Xander: Well, maggie cares about you deeply. You lied to her about where you were.
Gwen as sarah: I wanted to be left alone and I was afraid that she’d tell you where I was. I was trying to avoid this.
Xander: Oh, so you hate me now?
Gwen as sarah: Yes! You put another woman’s baby in my arms and told me that it was mine! You let me fall in love with her and then you watched as she was taken away from me! How could I not hate you?
Xander: It took time, but you did get past her.
Gwen as sarah: Yeah. I said I did. I even wanted it to be true, but no mother can get over something like that. Not ever. So why can’t you get that through your thick head?
Kate: Okay, so after sarah told rex that she wasn’t going to go with him, this dimera pilot whisked her out of town?
Abigail: Apparently. I mean, he won’t talk to us unless xander or I pay him off. I mean, the guy’s a real operator.
Kate: Okay, but how could someone like sarah commandeer a dimera plane?
Abigail: Well, I think the pilot was freelancing and then he just happened to have access to another company’s old jets? I don’t actually think it had anything to do with dimera enterprises. Although xander did suspect that maybe kristen had something to do with sarah’s decision to leave town. But he dismissed it.
Kate: Why would he do that? I mean, that’s exactly what kristin did to me.
Abigail: Xander mentioned that recently. Okay, so kristin was pretending to be susan and she tried to trick you to leave town, right?
Kate: Oh, my god. All right, so vivian ordered her to break up jake and me. So under the pretext that it was susan, she told me she had a premonition and I should leave. But then when I found that susan was actually kristin, she knocked me out and stuck me down in the tunnels.
Abigail: Oh, good god.
Kate: And at the same time, she puts on a mask so she looks like me and breaks up with jake, who’s a complete idiot. I don’t know why he fell for that, ’cause we were perfectly happy. We were supposed to be going on a vacation.
Abigail: Okay, and so then, he just–he dumps you out of the blue?
Kate: Yeah, yeah. Total 180. Meanwhile, kristin stuffs me in a giant suitcase to ship me out of town.
Abigail: Wait. Did you just say giant suitcase?
Kate: [Laughing] Yeah. Pretty hard to believe, right?
Abigail: Actually, not that hard. My plaque psoriasis…
Abigail: So how did you manage to escape?
Maggie: Abigail, kate.
Kate: Hey. Hi.
Abigail: Where’s xander? Did you bring the money?
Maggie: What money?
Abigail: Well, we found the pilot that flew sarah out of town and he won’t talk to us unless we pay him off. And so xander was headed to your place to see if you’d put up the cash.
Maggie: Well, he never got around to asking me for any money.
Abigail: Well, why not?
Maggie: Well–[Chuckles] I guess it’s not necessary, because xander is now with sarah at the moment.
Gwen as sarah: What you and victor did to kristen and me is unforgivable.
Xander: Yeah, that’s why kristin took so much joy in telling me about you and rex. It was her, not susan banks like I told you.
Gwen as sarah: I couldn’t care less who it was.
Xander: Did kristin get to you? Did she talk you into walking out on me?
Gwen as sarah: That was my decision. So now I’ve answered all of your questions. I have to go check out at the inn.
Xander: Oh, so you can disappear again? How long for this time?
Gwen as sarah: It’s really none of your business!
Xander: You didn’t even say goodbye to maggie. Don’t you care that you’ve broken her heart?
Gwen as sarah: I’m sorry for making her suffer. It’s why I came back. To put her mind at ease.
Xander: Your half-sister died last year. She had to go through that without you.
Gwen as sarah: And I will do better at keeping in touch, so… now you’ve seen me. You can quit obsessing over me and move on with your life. Go be with gwen.
Xander: How’d you know I’m with gwen?
Johnny: [Sighs] Seems pretty clear I need to rethink my relationship with my father. I don’t know if you heard, but he gave me control over his shares at the company.
Chad: Shin told me.
Johnny: You should know that the original plan was to combine our shares and use them to stop you from derailing his agenda.
Chad: You still thinking about that?
Johnny: I’m thinking maybe I lined up with the wrong guy. Maybe I should be working with you.
Melinda: Isn’t it true that you chloroformed your wife, samantha, so that you could leave the country with your children? Your honor. [Scoffs]
Judge: Answer the question, mr. Dimera.
Melinda: Oh, may I remind you you are still under oath.
Ej: I believed my children were in danger.
Melinda: I’ll take that as a yes.
Ej: It was a tense situation to say the least. Samantha had shot me in the head and left me to die.
Melinda: Oh, have the two of you always been in such a violent relationship?
Belle: Objection, your honor.
Judge: Overruled. Answer the question.
Ej: Um… what–what was the question?
Melinda: Have you ever chloroformed your wife in order to take your children by force from her?
Ej: I was trying to protect them. It was an act of love, not revenge.
Melinda: You’ve turned to chloroform once before, haven’t you, hmm? Why don’t you please tell the court about the first time you chloroformed your wife and kidnapped her? Life’s been hard enough.
Jake: Eh.
Gabi: Would you stop acting like a jealous idiot? I’m not gonna sleep with johnny.
Jake: What are you gonna do?
Gabi: It’s called leading him on. I mean, I’ve done it before. I did it with stephen to get control of the company. Worked like a charm.
Jake: Yeah, it worked so well you fell into bed with him and in love.
Gabi: But I am with you now, the love of my life, not some kid. Johnny? Come on. You’re my big, studly, handsome man.
Jake: And don’t you forget it.
Gabi: All right, now that we’re on the same page, I’m gonna go over to the mansion, talk to johnny, feel him up–
Jake: What?
Gabi: Feel him out, feel him out.
Jake: You know what, gabi? This is starting to make me feel anxious.
Gabi: Well, don’T. It’s fine. I’m telling you. I got this.
Johnny: If my dad goes to prison, it’s gonna be a disaster for dimera.
Chad: Vultures like jake and gabi will try to make a power play. You can be on that.
Johnny: Which is why you and I should start working together. What do you say?
Chad: I’m all for alliances, but I don’t want to get burned again.
Johnny: Sounds like you don’t trust me.
Chad: Trust has to be earned, and I barely know you, kid.
Johnny: Look, I know I’m young, but–
Chad: The closest you’ve come to running dimera is sitting on your dad’s lap playing with the keyboard at his computer.
Johnny: I’ll prove myself. You’ll see.
Chad: I’d better.
Johnny: [Chuckles]
[Sighs]
Demon johnny: Eh, I can’t blame you for being cautious, chad. You were just about to make a deal with the devil.
Ej: I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Melinda: Allow me to refresh your memory. You once chloroformed a pregnant mrs. Dimera and brought her to a warehouse where your brother andre was waiting to extract stem cells from the umbilical cord of your unborn child. Or has that slipped your memory?
Ej: I respectfully invoke my rights under the fifth amendment.
Melinda: That is the first smart move you’ve made all day, mr. Dimera. [Clicks pen no further questions.
Judge: Would you care to redirect?
Belle: Definitely. No matter what may or may not have happened in the distant past, we are talking about the events of august 11th. On the day in question, did you order that your wife be chloroformed and kidnapped?
Melinda: Objection. Asked and answered.
Judge: Sustained.
Belle: No further questions.
Judge: You may step down, mr. Dimera.
[Soft dramatic music]
Belle: I tried to tell you.
Ej: [Sighs]
Judge: Anything further from the defense?
Belle: No, your honor. The defense rests.
Judge: Then we’ll move on to closing arguments.
Abigail: I just–I can’t believe after all this time, sarah just shows up out of the blue?
Maggie: Yeah, I can’t believe it, either.
Abigail: So is she okay?
Maggie: She–she seems a bit distant, I guess. But otherwise, fine.
Kate: Well, I’m glad that breaking rex’s heart isn’t weighing too heavily on her.
Abigail: So did she say anything about where she’s been all this time?
Maggie: She won’t tell me.
Abigail: What?
Maggie: I couldn’t press the issue because xander showed up and said she wanted to talk to her alone. And I agreed.
Abigail: [Sighs] Okay, well, then maybe you’ll get some answers when you go back to the house.
Maggie: Well, I don’t know if she’ll still be there.
Abigail: Why?
Maggie: She informed me that when she finishes talking to xander, she’s going to check out at the salem inn and take a flight out.
Abigail: [Sighs] Did she say where she’s going?
Maggie: No, she’s just, um… she’s just very distant. [Sighs]
Abigail: Okay, that’s really odd.
Maggie: Yeah, I agree. I was just so relieved to see sarah in the flesh. So then I could stop worrying that anything awful had happened to her. [Sighs] But it’s not like her visit put me completely at ease. She’s just–I don’t know. She’s not herself.
Xander: You don’t even know gwen. How could you know she’s with me?
Gwen as sarah: My mom told me right before you came in. She said you and this gwen person are very happy together and very much in love. Is that not true? Are you… not in love with gwen?
Xander: After what you did to me, I didn’t think I could ever love anyone again. Didn’t want to love anyone. Yeah, then… gwen came along and before I knew it, yeah, I love her.
Gwen as sarah: Great. Then go be with gwen. And leave me the hell alone. My asthma felt anything but normal.
[Soft dramatic music]
Xander: Cake? I ask you to marry me and you want cake?
Sarah: I want you to get me some cake.
Xander: Is this your gentle way of shooting me down?
Sarah: It’s my gentle way of asking you to get me some cake.
Xander: I’m on my knees, unemployed, apparently unengaged. I’m not really in a cake kind of place right now.
Sarah: Would you just open the damn box?
Xander: Oh, this is really weird.
Sarah: [Sighs]
Well? Will you?
Xander: Okay.
Sarah: [Chuckles]
Xander: I’ll have some cake.
Sarah: You jerk!
Xander: Of course I’ll marry you! Don’t you remember I was just on my knees trying to get you to marry me.
Sarah: I know, but I just wanted you to know that it was mutual. That I want this as much as you do.
Xander: Don’t think I’ve ever been this happy.
Sarah: [Chuckles] Me neither.
Kate: So mystery solved. Nothing disastrous happened to sarah, except she seems like she’s turned into sort of a bitch. [Chuckles] You want a drink?
Abigail: Oh, this time of day?
Kate: Oh, come on. It’s 5:00 somewhere in the world, right?
Abigail: Okay. I’ll have a glass of wine.
Kate: Yes. [Chuckles]
[Sighs] And at the same time, she puts on a mask so she looks like me and breaks up with jake, who’s a complete idiot. I don’t know why he fell for that, ’cause we were perfectly happy. We were supposed to be going on a vacation.
Xander: Rex’s mum, kate? She figured out that kristen was pretending to be susan, so kristen knocked her out and stuck her in that secret room in the tunnels. Kristen has all these masks that she can use to make her look like whoever she wants to be.
Maggie: I was just so relieved to see sarah in the flesh. So then I could stop worrying that anything awful had happened to her. But it’s not like her visit put me completely at ease. She’s just–I don’t know. She’s not herself.
Abigail: Oh, my god.
Kate: So red or white? Hey, where you going?
Gabi: Hello? Anybody home?
Johnny: What a surprise. You look beautiful.
Gabi: Thank you. And, uh, you look like you’ve been fencing.
Johnny: I was working with my instructor.
Gabi: Mm. Outside?
Johnny: That’s an intense workout.
Gabi: Guess so.
[Both chuckle] You’re sweating and it’s, like, 30 degrees outside.
Johnny: Well, hot as hell for me. So gabi, what brings you by?
Gabi: I thought you’d never ask.
Melinda: So your fate is in the judge’s hands now. Thank you for making my job so easy.
Ej: Go to hell.
[Ej sighs] Well, that was a disaster.
Belle: One of your own making. Arrogant jerk.
Ej: I thought if I was a surprise witness, trask wouldn’t have the time to dig up the dirt on me.
Belle: Oh, my god, ej. She has been after you for years. She prosecuted sami. She probably knows about every jaywalking ticket you’ve ever gotten.
Ej: Okay, made your point.
[Both sigh] Okay, what are my chances?
Belle: [Scoffs] Well, I tried to do as much damage control as I could in my closing trying to prove that this case was different than every other time you’ve chloroformed my sister, but–
Ej: Thank you for trying. I’m aware that I behaved idiotically and made your job more difficult.
Belle: Well, you still have one thing going for you. There really is no direct evidence of your guilt.
Ej: It can’t be. I’m innocent.
Melinda: Well, we’re about to find out if that’s true.
Belle: What does that mean?
Melinda: The judge is gonna rule from the bench.
Belle: [Scoffs] I didn’t expect to get that decision for weeks.
Melinda: Well, you thought wrong. Apparently, he’s already reached a verdict. It’s my 5:52 woke-up-like-this migraine medicine.
Ej: What do you think this means?
Belle: Well, I’m sure you know a fast verdict usually favors the defendant.
Ej: What the hell are you doing here?
Chad: Well, I heard there was a verdict. Decided I wanted to witness your downfall in person.
Ej: You changed your testimony and I have no idea why.
Chad: You know what you did.
Ej: I assure you, I have no idea–
Judge: I am ready to deliver my verdict. I’m sure you’re all surprised at how quickly I came to this decision, but after a review of the testimony I heard, it was clear. In the matter of people V. Elvis dimera, I find the defendant guilty as charged.
Melinda: Your honor, the people request remand.
Judge: Ms. Brady?
Belle: Your honor, the defendant is already out on bail. The defense requests that he get to remain in his home until sentencing.
Melinda: Your honor, the people object. The defendant has power and wealth at his command. He’s a huge flight risk.
Judge: I agree. Mr. Dimera, you are immediately remanded to salem pd holding where you will await transfer to statesville.
[Gavel impacts]
Gabi: I haven’t been able to stop thinking about our conversation yesterday.
Johnny: The one where you said we have interests in common, yeah?
Gabi: Yeah. I wanted to talk to you about what our partnership might look like.
Johnny: You know, I’ve actually been giving that a lot of thought.
Gabi: Hmm.
Johnny: And I was thinking that it might look something like this.
Maggie: Oh, so how did it go with sarah?
Xander: She made it quite clear that she still hates me.
Maggie: [Sighs] I’m sorry. Do you at least understand what caused her change of heart?
Xander: No. She said the same thing she said a year ago. I just don’t understand her, maggie. I was so sure that there was more to the story.
Abigail: Sarah? Thank god I caught you. Um, we need to talk.
Ava as sarah: Abigail, I’m so sorry, but if I don’t leave right now, I’m gonna miss my flight.
Abigail: Well, just answer one question.
Ava as sarah: What is it?
Abigail: You’re not really sarah, are you?
