THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!
[quirky music]
These are really salty.
I know. I know. That’s what makes them so good.
Mm. So you really liked tonight’s episode of “Drag Race,” huh?
I loved it. I can’t believe that show’s been on the air for seasons and I’ve never seen it.
Never seen it? What are you talking about? We’ve watched this together.
[siren wailing]
So did the doctor say that I was fine and I’m ready to blow this joint?
Yes, you are able to go home.
[laughs]
And he said, as you did, that you are fit as a fiddle.
Told you.
Yeah. Well, I’m just glad the doctor happened to agree.
Yeah.
By the way…
Hmm.
I bumped into Kayla at the nurses’ station, and apparently Chad and Jack have found that woman they were looking for in Poplar Bluff.
The one from the video?
They think so. She came back to the same room where you were being held.
Huh. And was it Abigail?
[dramatic music]
They’re about to find out.
Where’s Kayla?
She’ll be back soon with the results. So how about you two? Where did you go to eat?
My family’s estate.
Ah. So you recognize anything?
I didn’t, no.
Ah.
Well, I have the results. I didn’t open them. I thought I would leave that up to you.
Actually, you know what? I think Chad should do the honors.
Well? Chad, what does it say?
Hang on, Mom. You know what? I’m gonna come back there, and I’ll help you find it. OK? I’ll see you soon.
What, Maggie can’t find the key?
[sighs] No. So I’m gonna help her look. We have about a half hour before the last ferry.
Yeah, we do. I’ll come with you.
No, no, no, no, you stay and go buy the tickets ’cause it’ll save us some time.
You sure?
Mm-hmm. I’m sure.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
All right.
[light music]
[tense music]
[chuckles] Sorry, darling. There was no way I was gonna let you drive home. I mean, dear God, look at the state of you. [chuckles]
[screams]
Oh, my God! [tires screeching, glass shattering]
According to the DNA results… it’s a match. It’s a % genetic match.
[dramatic music]
I’m sorry. What does that mean, exactly?
It means the test is saying that you and Jack are father and daughter.
And also that you’re Abigail.
You’re my wife.
Oh. Hey, wait a minute. Are you saying that you and I have watched this show before, together?
Hello. You don’t remember?
Well, may– was I half in the bag at the time? Were we in a bar?
No, we weren’t at a bar.
Oh. Well, maybe I was still half in the bag. [laughs] Ooh, mm, mm.
Are you feeling OK?
Yeah, no, I think I’m a little bloated, you know, from the pork rinds. Oh, well, you know what? I got a fitting tomorrow for “Body & Soul.” I hope I’m not all bloated from the pork rinds still.
You know what? Drink a lot of water tonight. It’ll flush your system.
Well, thanks. I’ll do that. You know what else I’m gonna do? I’m gonna talk to Abe and Kate about making you our head writer.
Ah, thank you.
Yeah, well, you’d be great at it, don’t you think, with all your bon mots and your clever repartee and– is that the way you say that?
Yeah, I think you got it.
OK, great. Well, I’ve had a blast. Thanks for inviting me. I’ll see you around, Lenny.
[quirky music]
Lenny?
Junk food, flashy clothes, working at a soap opera. Dr. Evans, what the hell is going on with you?
So this woman that Chad and Jack found doesn’t look like Abigail and she was in, what, some sort of an accident?
Apparently a couple years ago. But she has no memory of anything that happened to her before the accident.
And then this accident, it happened, what, around the same time when we thought Abigail had died?
Yeah, I think so. So if you add that to the reconstructive surgery she said she’d–
There’s a possibility that this woman could be Abigail. – Abigail.
[dramatic music] You’re back. My beautiful girl is back.
Oh, please, please don’t. Please. I’m so sorry, but please don’t.
[light music]
[line ringing]
[tense music]
Brady. Brady!
[groans] What’s go–what’s going on?
I think I hit someone.
Yeah.
Oh. Hello? Hello, can you hear me? Hello? Miss? Oh, God.
Oh, my God. Sarah.
[sighs] So, Gwennie, I knew you wouldn’t pick up. You never do. But maybe you listen to my voicemails. Either way, it helps me to talk to you because you are my BFF and always will be, even if you now hate me with a vengeance and for good reason.
Anyway, you know Dr. Marlena Evans, World-renowned psychiatrist, very smart, very successful, very intimidating, but also kind of menschy in her own hoity-toity way? Well, I’m in therapy with her now, in part to figure out why I was such a terrible friend to you, which has all to do with my miserably low self-esteem, but that is a story for another time.
Well, there’s Xander Cook, looking a little peaky around the gills, as you might say.
– You’ve reached Dr. Sarah Horton. Leave a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
[voicemail beeps]
Sarah, hi, it’s me. I assume that you’re still helping Maggie find that key, and maybe you’ve managed to lose your phone too. But I hope you get this soon, ’cause we are very nearly about to miss the last ferry.
So anyway, Dr. Evans comes over to watch “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” right? And she’s wolfing down pork rinds, talking about how bloated she is, and she’s thinking about giving up her practice to become a soap opera star. So I am, like, shook. But I don’t want to offend her by telling her how weird she’s acting and how much she’s freaking me out. Anyway, that’s the latest here, if you have any advice for me. Yes, I know. I’m never gonna hear from you again, but… like I said, it helps me to talk to you. I love you, Guinevere. And I miss you something terrible.
[voicemail beeps]
Hi, Sarah. It’s me again. Look, I– obviously I don’t want to pressure you. I just–look, maybe if the key doesn’t turn up, we can go to the cabin in the morning. It’s just that tonight is our wedding night, and I was hoping that we could go somewhere special so I could show my wife just how loved she is. That’s you, in case you were wondering. Anyway, just call me as soon as you get this, yeah? I love you.
Ah. I love you, Xandy.
Really, Stark?
A boy can dream, can’t he?
I was talking to Sarah, my wife.
Wife? I thought your wedding went belly-up when Mommie Dearest exposed Theresa for the lying gold digger that she is.
Yeah, it did, but we… had a wee do-over this afternoon.
Ah, how nice for you. And you made it through the whole ceremony this time, no “nuptialus interruptus,” as I so cleverly refer to it?
I’m so glad you were amused. But why would anyone interrupt us at this point?
I don’t know. You never know when Gwennie might make an appearance.
Well, she didn’t.
Yeah. I guess that’s wishful thinking on my part. I was just leaving her a voicemail, actually, telling her about my therapist, who shall remain nameless because I don’t want it getting out there that she’s suddenly morphed into Elly May Clampett.
Who?
Elly May Clampett, “Beverly Hillbillies.”
Oh, I never watched that show.
Oh, honey, you must, comedy gold. See, there’s this backwoods farmer named Jed Clampett who discovers oil on his land. Then he moves his entire clan out to fancy-schmancy Beverly Hills, where this unscrupulous banker then–
Leo, I don’t give a damn about “The Beverly Hillbillies,” especially right now.
Ugh, fine. Your loss. But I do miss that little train wreck– Gwennie, I mean, not Elly May. But I am glad that she didn’t spoil your wedding ceremony.
Yeah, nothing spoiled our ceremony. And assuming Sarah and I can make it to this ferry on time, nothing’s gonna spoil the honeymoon either.
[sighs]
[tense music]
My son’s wife? Oh, my God. What do I do? What do I do? Pull yourself together, Fiona. OK. OK. Maybe–maybe she’s– OK.
Oh, thank God. You’re alive!
Well, Doc, whoever that woman is, you know, I wonder if she… knows anything about how she and I wound up in the same room in Missouri.
You know, considering what she’s been through, I don’t think it’s a good time to ask her.
Yeah, yeah. I hear you. I’ll let Chad and Jack talk to her first. Besides, right now, my priority is making my exit out of this room right now.
And my priority is to get you out of here and get you home and pamper you.
[tender music]
I like the sound of that.
I’m so glad you’re OK. And I just– I’m so glad you’re back.
I’m beyond glad that I’m back, ’cause I was missing you like crazy, Doc.
Oh, honey, I’ve missed you too.
We’re gonna make up for some lost time, starting right now.
Mm.
And hopefully soon, we’re gonna get some answers from that mystery woman.
[dramatic music]
Abigail, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I know you’re overwhelmed. We’re all overwhelmed here. But, my God, my God, you’re my daughter. I’m your dad.
I don’t know you, any of you. And I’m thinking I need to head back to Poplar Bluff.
No, please don’t. Please–please don’t go.
You don’t understand, OK? I do not feel like I belong here. None of this makes any sense to me at all.
You know what? Of course it doesn’t. Of course it doesn’t, not yet. But you are with your family here, including me. I’m your Aunt Kayla.
You’re my aunt?
Yes. And you do belong here, with us.
OK, I–I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I–I get that you feel that way. But I don’t know how that can be when you all are strangers to me, when I do not know you.
You do. You do. You know us. I mean, maybe not consciously, but…
You know, I think– I think you will remember us if you just give it some time.
Yeah, you know, you just have to trust us and give it time, I suppose.
Let me take you home.
What?
Please come home with me.
You want me to come home with you?
[dramatic music]
Yeah, but not the bougie mansion. [chuckles] I don’t live there anymore. Like I said, I moved into your mom’s family’s house. And I live there with your cousin Julie and her husband, Doug, now.
I moved in there when–
when I thought that we had lost you, me and the kids, our kids.
Our kids?
Yeah.
Yeah. We have a son and a daughter.
OK.
That’s Thomas. He’s ten. And Charlotte, she’s five. And they’re beautiful. And they remind me a lot of you.
Do you recognize them?
No, I don’t. And they would not recognize me either.
But we can explain it to them.
How? How are we gonna do that? Gonna show up at their house with a strange woman and say, hey, kids, this is Mom, your dead mom?
Yeah.
They’ll be traumatized. I will be traumatized.
OK, so it’d be traumatic for them. You’re right. And for you. So then we don’t have to go there.
I don’t care where we go. I just want to be with you.
So Sarah’s off fetching the key to the Horton cabin, huh?
That’s the idea, yeah.
And you two really are happy together? That’s a stupid question. Of course you are. Why would you have just gotten married? Although God knows, plenty of people get married when they’re not happy together, thinking that just because they have mad sexual chemistry, that means they should spend the rest of their lives together, when you and I both know that having the hots for one another isn’t enough to make a relationship last.
Right, and for the record, Sarah and I are compatible in all kinds of ways in addition to having mad sexual chemistry, so…
Well, you do make a beautiful couple. Although Sarah could afford to have a little more meat on her bones. Does she ever eat?
She eats plenty, Leo. And I love her just the way she is.
Oh, well, hey, hey, I do not mean to imply that she’s not a knockout. She is, especially for a doctor. I mean, not that doctors can’t be good-looking. But, you know, when you’re as gorgeous as Sarah is, you kind of wonder why she didn’t go the movie star route. She could have been the next Penélope Cruz– without the accent, without Javier Bardem, on whom I have a major crush. But I do love that little tattoo on her neck– Sarah’s, not Penélope’s.
I’ll be sure to let her know you approve.
But it’s great that she’s a doctor. Of course it is. You must be very proud. Although I have read that it’s not nearly as lucrative to be a doctor these days as it once was. But it’s not like you guys were gonna ever have to eat dog food.
Leo, would you kindly stop talking, please?
Ugh, fine. You know, you are quite edgy for a man who just got hitched.
Just a bit stressed and concerned that Sarah and I are gonna miss this last ferry, that’s all.
Right. Well, if she doesn’t show up, I’m happy to fill in. I’m kidding. Hey, of course I’m just kidding. You have a wonderful wedding night. Sarah’s very lucky to have you.
I’m the lucky one. I mean, as you well know, I have screwed up and let her down so many times. But she’s an angel on Earth. Never, ever gonna take her for granted again.
Xandy, that was really beautiful. Congrats again. But if you get desperate, you know where to find me.
[light music]
[sighs]
[line rings]
Maggie, hi. Yes. Sorry to bother you again. I’m just checking in, seeing what’s taking so long. Oh, I get that. It’s just– can’t Sarah find it either? What do you mean she’s not with you? She left me a while ago to come and help you look for it. Oh, no, there’s no need to worry. I’m sure everything’s fine. I’ll just head over to the car park and see if she’s still there. Maybe she had car trouble. Yeah, all right.
Oh, thank you.
Mm-hmm.
I still think we should have gone straight home.
Why? Dr. Greene gave me a clean bill of health, confirmed I don’t have a concussion. I think I’m capable of eating a burger before bed.
Well, now you’ve made me hungry.
All right. We’re gonna order two, then.
No, I’ll think I’ll have a Greek salad. But, honey, before we order…
I left this at Catharina’s grave site.
I know. Steve found it there. I know it’s private, and… we wouldn’t have read it, except that there was blood on it and you were missing.
No, I understand.
Now that you’re back from Greece, have you been able to find some closure?
Well, yes and no.
I mean, I’m glad that I was able to– to visit Catharina’s grave site and pay my respects. But at the same time, just being there in that–
In that cemetery, looking down at her headstone, it just– it brought it home to me, Doc, that I–
I took an innocent life.
[sighs]
[tense music]
Oh, my God. What have I done? What am I gonna tell the police?
Sarah? Sarah!
Sarah! Sarah, love, where are you? Sarah?
Sarah! What happened? Sarah, are you OK? [engine turning over] Who did this to you? Wha–what happened? [tires squeal, engine revs] Darling, darling, darling. What happened?
Here we are, Brady, home, sweet home.
[dramatic music] It was lucky I could get your address from your driver’s license.
Brady. Brady! [sighs] All right, fine. Sure. Stay sleeping. Not that there’s anything to worry about, nothing at all.
You had no choice but to leave Sarah there, Fiona. You had no choice. Xander was on the scene. I’m sure he’ll get her the help that she needs. I’ve just got to keep it together.
Xander is gonna take care of his wife.
Oh, God, Sarah, darling. What do I do? What do I do? Can you hear me? Can you hear me, darling?
[moans]
Oh, thank God. Sarah, listen to me. It’s Xander. I’m here. I’m here, and you’re gonna be all right. OK? Can you hear me? Listen, just stay there. Just don’t move. Don’t move. I’m gonna get you some help.
[line rings] Yes, I need a– I need an ambulance right now at the town square. My wife’s been hit by a car. She needs help.
Please be OK. You’ve got to be OK. You’ve got to be OK.
You’re a good man, John.
[light music] You’re the best man I’ve ever known. And that’s why Catharina’s death is… weighing so heavily on you.
We’ll get through this together, no matter how long it takes.
Dr. Evans.
Hello, Leo.
What gives? You didn’t tell me John was back. Oh, and you changed your clothes.
I changed my clothes? What do you mean?
Well, I thought you were going home.
I did go home, and then John decided he wanted to have some supper.
Oh, so much for being bloated on pork rinds. [laughs]
Pork rinds?
You didn’t sneak a bag of pork rinds out of the vending machine, did you?
No, no, a granola bar is all I’ve had all day. Wha–
What are you talking about? I just watched you crush an entire bag of pork rinds while we were watching our show.
What are you talking about and what show?
No, I don’t know where our waitress is here, but I’ll tell you what. I’m gonna see if I can order at the bar, OK? Caesar salad?
With grilled chicken, thanks.
Why are you acting like we just didn’t hang out at my place– oh. You don’t want John to know that you’re fraternizing with a patient. That’s it, isn’t it? [laughs]
I know it’s a lot to figure out. But I promise you, you’ll like it at the Hortons’. It’s very warm and welcoming.
Used to be your favorite place in the world.
[dramatic music]
Yeah, it’s just…
To me, it’s a strange house that I’ve never been to before. And like I said, showing up to the place where your kids live with a strange woman they don’t recognize, telling them that she’s their mother, it just– [sighs]
Yeah, it’d be traumatic, I’m sure–yeah, I’m sure for you too.
OK, well, then there’s– the other possibility would be the mansion.
OK, let’s go there.
DiMera mansion it is, then.
Leo, I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Got it. It never happened.
What never happened?
Exactly.
Leo, Leo–
I understand that socializing with your patients, even the hopelessly charming ones, is against hospital policy. So don’t worry. Mum’s the word. And with that, I bid you a good night.
[light music]
Whoa.
That was one of the strangest encounters I’ve ever had.
Well, that’s Leo Stark for you. Now, I got some bad news. Kitchen is closed.
Oh, after all this?
I know. Looks like the burger’s gonna have to wait.
You know, we could do a drive-through.
Nah. Let’s just go home.
Good idea.
It was good to see you, Leo.
You, too, for the first time tonight. [clicks tongue]
Jack, can you please tell the kids that I’m gonna be staying at the mansion tonight? You could just tell them–
It’s all right. I got it. I got it. Don’t worry. Don’t worry, Chad. I got it.
And Abigail, if you need to talk, you know, patient-doctor or aunt-niece, I am here for you, day and night. [phone rings] Sorry, hang on one second. Dr. Johnson. Yeah. Yeah. OK. I’ll be there. I’m sorry. I got to run to the ER. But listen, I know that I’m just another strange face in this whole situation. But we all love you. And I know that we will all be there for you, whatever you need, however long it takes, all right?
Thank you.
OK, doll
[dramatic music]
Look, Kayla’s right. I mean, I know you don’t recognize me or your mother or any of us. But it’s all right. We understand. We understand. All that’s important is that… [sighs] You’re here. You’re alive.
And… [sighs] There’s no words.
You ready?
Ready.
[sighs]
[quirky music]
You’re back.
And you changed again.
I changed? Into what?
[laughs] OK, what the hell is going on here? Are you gaslighting me or something?
Am I gas-what-ing?
[gasps] Is this some kind of radical therapy where I’m supposed to think I’m losing my mind?
Oh, what are you on about?
Did you ditch your husband just so you could come back here and see me?
Husband? What husband?
We’re getting help now, Sarah. I’m right here, right beside you.
Sarah?
We just got married. And Sarah went to get the key to the cabin, and she got hit by a car.
My God.
Is she gonna be all right?
Well, let us check her out, OK? I need you to go outside.
Kayla, please.
Let us do our work, all right? Please?
OK. Sarah, I’ll be right out there. I love you. So does Victoria. We have our whole lives ahead of us, Sarah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. She’ll be all right. Go on.
[tense music]
Xander will get Sarah to the hospital on time. I know he will. She’s gonna be OK, right? She’s gonna pull through this.
But what do I do? I can’t just sit here. The police, they’ll be– [phone ringing]
[sighs] God.
Hello, Xander, darling. I thought you were on your honeymoon.
Something happened. Mum, I need you.
[sighs]
[light music]
Well, I’d love to stay and talk, but I got to get some shut-eye.
Wait, wait, wait, in there?
Yeah, yeah. Roman rented me a room. Wasn’t that nice?
Well, I guess.
Mm.
Nice seeing you again, Lenny. Good night.
Wait. I think I know what’s going on here. Is it contagious? This is just like Everett. [gasps] Oh, my gosh. Marlena Evans has a split personality.
That is so weird. Why would Brady park in my space? What’s that about? – I’m sorry, Maggie, but I don’t know what happened. But you need to get here right now. Sarah needs you. So do I.
Xander, darling.
[dramatic music] Is Sarah all right?
I don’t know. They’re working on her right now, like. But she was really badly hurt.
What on earth happened?
It was a hit-and-run. Some bastard hit– hit her with his car and just drove off, left her by the side of the road.
Oh, God, how could anyone do such a thing?
I don’t know. And I don’t care. All I do know is, when they find that driver, I’m gonna tear him limb from limb.
[sighs]
Maybe Brady had a long day and was a little distracted when he pulled in here.
Mm.
Don’t worry. I’ll give him a call.
Oh, you know what? Never mind. It’s late. No harm done.
I like the way you think.
[ticking]
[line rings]
Hello. Did I wake you up? Jennifer, I–look. Yes. I know I told you I’d call you if I had news about Abigail. Well…I have news.
Looks like nobody’s around.
Yeah.
My father is–
Yeah, let’s just say the portrait is more harmless than he was.
Well…[clears throat] I’ll let the staff… know to make up a room… for me and for you, one for– a room for each of us.
OK. Thank you.
OK? I’ll be back.
[sighs] So I guess Abigail’s home.
