He said he knew he was forcing Johnny to forgive him, but he was going to set him free. EJ said he loved Johnny but sometimes loving someone meant letting them go. He told Johnny he would never bother him again if that was what he wanted. Johnny said he hated what he did to Sami, but he was a good father. He said EJ was important to him. Johnny said after losing John, he didn’t think he could lose anyone else. EJ suggested that he take his time and think about it. He said he would accept any answer Johnny gave him. Chanel ran into Paulina at the hospital. Paulina said she was there for a physical while Chanel said she was there for a follow up to her cancer surgery. Chanel said she didn’t say anything because she didn’t want to worry her or Johnny. She said she was going to ask Sarah if she and Johnny could try to have a baby.
At the hospital, Xander told Sarah that he was exonerated for Philip’s assault. Sarah said that didn’t change anything between them. Xander said he wasn’t there to get back together with her. He said he was there to get shared custody. She said she wouldn’t agree to shared custody. He warned her they would do this the hard way. Belle wanted Philip to go over his statement again. Philip told her a random person beat him up. Belle said she didn’t believe him and was afraid Xander would finish the job. She said she couldn’t lose another person she cared about. A confused Philip wondered who she lost. Belle told him her father passed away. Philip offered his condolences. He said he was the reason why John was in the meth lab. Belle said what happened to her father was an accident but what happened to him wasn’t. She said she wasn’t giving up until she could prove he was lying. Later on, Xander went to see Philip.
