Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
EJ told Paulina that she would look like a fool if she fired him because no one would be as good as he was. Paulina said she would replace him with Melinda. EJ said Melinda was gone and possibly had her fill of politics. Paulina reminded him that he stole a baby to which he said he allegedly stole a baby. He said they were in-laws who didn’t need the scandal, but she said if Stefan was right about what he knew, she couldn’t save him. Jada went to Connie’s apartment with another officer. When they went in the apartment, they saw blood on the floor. Jada followed the blood on the floor and saw the cardboard of Li in Connie’s room. While in Connie’s room, she noticed the ropes on the bed frame and figured out that Connie held someone captive. When Jada and the police officer searched for evidence, they found Melinda’s pocketbook. They wondered if Melinda was there and if so where was she. Jada put out an APB on Connie and Melinda and wanted to find out what Connie did with Melinda. Connie had a knife in her hand and confessed to Gabi that she stabbed Rafe. A shocked Gabi said it wasn’t true because Everett was the one who stabbed Rafe. Connie said Bobby asked her to take care of Rafe so he could be with Jada. Gabi decided to keep Connie talking while she tried to get her phone. When Gabi accused Connie of killing Bobby, Connie said she did because he was going to snitch on her. Gabi asked Connie what she did. Connie admitted to killing Li. She told Gabi that she framed her by sending her a text the night Li died. Connie said Gabi was stupid enough to fall for her trap then and to fall for her trap now. A curious Gabi asked why Connie framed her. Connie said she hated the way Gabi and Stefan treated Li and played with his emotions. She said she loved Li and had a great date with him. If it weren’t for Gabi, they would have had a wonderful life together. Thanks to Gabi’s actions, Li couldn’t fall in love again. Connie said she tried to convince Li to love again, but Gabi ruined him. She said Gabi was the one who deserved to die.
When Connie tried to attack Gabi with the knife, Gabi got out of the way. Gabi grabbed the knife and ran, but Connie went after her. Connie caught up to Gabi and dragged her into the wine cellar where Melinda was tied up. She tied Gabi up to a chair and took Melinda’s gag off. Melinda wanted to know where they were. Connie told her they were at the DiMera wine cellar. Since Melinda was still alive when she tried to kill Gabi, Connie decided to kill them together. Melinda asked why Connie didn’t kill her when they were in the apartment. Connie said she would never ruin her and Li’s love nest by killing her. She said she and Li would be together as soon as she killed Melinda and Gabi. Melinda told Connie that she didn’t want to kill again because LI didn’t want her to kill again. Connie appreciated her concern, but she could kill them both and get away with it. Melinda said the police would look down there eventually, but Connie said they wouldn’t find anything because the two of them and everything else in the house were about to be incinerated. Rafe tried to call Gabi, but she didn’t answer. Jada showed up and told him Connie wasn’t found, but might have had something to do with Li’s murder. She told him what she found in Connie’s apartment. Jada called and found out Gabi didn’t go to work. Rafe hoped Gabi took the day off to be with Stefan, but Jada said they split up because Stefan cheated on her with Ava. Paulina went to Connie’s apartment and talked to the police officer. The officer told her that Connie held Melinda hostage, but they haven’t found Melinda or Connie. Paulina saw the cardboard of Li in Connie’s bed. Ava told Stefan that she wasn’t taking the job at the Bistro because she knew he and Gabi would make up. Stefan said Gabi could rot for all he cared. Ava said he would take her back if she apologized. While they were talking, he got a call from Gabi which he ignored because he thought she was rubbing it in that she was sleeping with EJ. He tried to entice Ava to work with him at the Bistro and offered her a manager position. She decided to take the job. When they went to the Bistro, Ava said she wasn’t sure about taking the job because Gabi wouldn’t like it. Stefan said Gabi was dead to him. Ava said Gabi may be out of his life, but she went through this with Rafe and Harris so she was prepared for Stefan to go back to Gabi. Stefan said that wouldn’t happen because Gabi was with EJ that morning. EJ showed up and saw Stefan and Ava together. He thought Stefan assumed he would be in jail since he told Paulina that he stole Nicole’s baby. EJ reminded Stefan that Gabi came on to him. Stefan asked EJ about what happened that morning. EJ said there was no this morning to which Stefan said that wasn’t what Gabi told him. He told Stefan that Gabi lied to him about what happened.
