Gwen warned Javi that Leo would screw him over the way he did her. Leo said he used to wish that he didn’t do what he did to her but it led to him being with Javi and Tesoro. He said he was the happiest he has ever been. Gwen walked away from them. Cat went to Rafe’s office to let him know that she was out of a job. She said she wouldn’t be able to get information on EJ since she wouldn’t be working at the hospital anymore. Cat said she might have a new lead in Gwen.
