Tate looks at a picture of him and Holly together. Sophia caught him looking at the picture. She noticed that he’s been acting funny since Holly’s been back. Tate assured her that he wouldn’t have sex with her and hook up with Holly. She didn’t want him staying with her out of obligation. To reassure her of his feelings, he decided to give her a kiss. He asked her if that felt like he wasn’t committed to her. The kiss changed her attitude towards him. She wanted to go to his room to show him how much she enjoyed the kiss. Holly ran into Aaron at the town square. He told her that his brother was arrested for trying to kill Chad. Aaron also revealed that the woman who pretended to be Abby was his sister. She was surprised to hear that news. Mark and Cat did what they had to do to get their mother back. Holly promised to be there for him. The teens changed the subject and talked about Tate and Sophia. Aaron confessed that he encouraged Tate to go after Sophia. She told him that Tate slept with Sophia. He felt responsible for what happened between them, but she assured him that it wasn’t his fault. Tate and Sophia began making out until he called out Holly’s name. JJ was upset that EJ dropped the charges against Cat. Cat walked in the living room and heard JJ ranting about her. Chad confessed that he was the one who asked EJ to drop the charges against her. JJ didn’t have any sympathy for Cat or her brother. He didn’t think they were any better than Clyde for what they put the family through. JJ accused Chad of destroying Abby’s memory. Chad assured him that he was trying to honor it by retrieving her remains. He informed JJ about the plan to use Cat as bait to lure Clyde out of hiding. JJ thought that was risky, but Cat was okay with it. Chad wanted him to keep it a secret, but JJ couldn’t do it. The brothers-in-law started arguing about it before JJ stormed off.
Rafe and Jada talked about her getting the promotion to commissioner. She didn’t know what to say about it. He wanted to congratulate her. Roman overheard them talking about the promotion. Jada got called away leaving Rafe and Roman alone. Roman was willing to listen to Rafe talk about his feelings about her promotion. He was proud of her, but he was angry that he lost his job. Rafe felt disrespected after putting his life on the line. Sighing, he decided to suck it up and deal with it. Roman suggested that he sue the city for not holding his job for him during his recuperation. Rafe wasn’t sure that was a good idea because of Jada. Roman asked him if he could be happy with her when he resented losing his job. Jada saw Gabi at the house. Gabi was preparing a celebratory dinner for Rafe. Jada let her know that she was asked to stay as the commissioner which shocked Gabi. Gabi knew her brother wasn’t happy about that decision. Jada wasn’t happy about it either. Gabi knew Jada was happy about being Salem’s first African American commissioner. She understood how it felt to compete with the person you love in the workplace. Jada would have wanted the position if Rafe wasn’t demoted. Gabi wouldn’t say anything, but she advised Jada to tell the truth. Rafe arrived home and found Jada in the kitchen. They talked about the situation they are in. She didn’t want the job to cause problems for them. He didn’t want that either so he decided to quit.
