Steve is at the hospital and calls Chad. Steve asks how Paris is. Chad says it’s hard to complain about Paris. Steve says especially when he’s there with someone he loves. Steve mentions that Julie told him about the trip. Chad says he hoped it might spark some memories. Steve asks how that is going. Chad says there’s nothing concrete. Steve asks if it did spark something at least. Chad says he appreciates his concern but he knows why he’s calling and guesses that Steve is still suspicious of “Abigail”.

“Abigail” calls Mark and tells him that she has news. Holly then walks by behind her at the café in Paris. “Abigail” informs Mark that she and Chad are getting married. Mark notes that was fast. “Abigail” says she didn’t expect it to come together so soon but the stakes are so high. She assures that everything she’s doing is for their mom as Holly looks on confused behind her.

Tate finds Sophia in the town square and tells her about running in to Holly’s grandmother. Tate says it turns out that Holly wasn’t in school because she flew out to Paris. Sophia calls that great news as maybe she and her mom can work things out. Tate is surprised Sophia cares. Sophia claims that Holly is still her friend. Tate points out that even though Holly attacked her. Sophia states that just because they like the same guy, doesn’t mean she wants her to be miserable. Sophia admits she wouldn’t hate it if Holly decided to stay in Paris, so she could have Tate all to herself.

Maggie questions Xander telling her that Kristen has a cure for Sarah’s paralysis. Xander says he didn’t believe it at first either. Maggie asks what Kristen knows that the doctors don’t. Xander reveals that it’s Dr. Rolf, who has some type of serum and Kristen will give it to them for a price. Maggie asks what the price is. Xander says she demanded they get the charges against Brady dropped.

Eric visits Brady in the interrogation room and asks how he’s holding up. Brady says he’s fine and tells him not to worry about the deal he made with EJ for 10 years. Brady adds that by the time he gets out, Sarah will still be in a wheelchair so he’s not going to talk him out of it. Eric informs Brady that he’s here to talk to him about he and Fiona.

Sarah goes to her bedroom and thinks back to Eric questioning her about Fiona. Sarah tells herself that it can’t be but then she has a flashback to the hit and run. Fiona then enters the room. Sarah declares it was her. Fiona asks what she’s talking about. Sarah declares that she finally remembers it was Fiona that was driving that night. Fiona asks if she’s just waking up from a nightmare. Sarah repeats that she knows it was her and she’s never been more sure about anything. Fiona thinks she’s confused and brings up how Sarah said she remembered Brady and then she said she didn’t. Sarah reminds her that she told her that she lied about that to stop Xander from killing Brady. Fiona questions where she would even get the idea that she was involved in her accident. Sarah reveals that Eric was just there and told her that he spoke to the waiter who served Brady that night and that Fiona was with him at the bar.

Brady guesses Eric heard about he and Fiona. Eric confirms he did and understands why he’d want to keep that under wraps. Brady explains that when he met her, he had no idea who she was and they were both in a bad place. Eric says he doesn’t care about that, but about the night of Sarah’s accident. Eric asks Brady if Fiona was drinking that night too.

Steve tells Chad that he didn’t mean to upset him and says they are on the same side here. Chad disagrees and says they aren’t if he keeps implying that “Abigail” is an impostor. Steve says he’s just concerned about them. Chad assures him that everything is going great and then reveals they are getting married.

Mark tells “Abigail” that it’s great that she convinced Chad to marry her but he’s glad she called when she did because he just saw Clyde. He informs her that there’s something else Clyde wants him to do. Holly then approaches and recognizes “Abigail”.

Maggie tells Xander that Kristen is delusional since Xander can’t decide whether Brady gets prosecuted or not. Xander explains that Sarah’s memory is all EJ has but they’ll only get the cure if Brady goes free. Maggie calls it a tough decision. Xander explains that the decision was already made but EJ won’t accept it as he’s so determined to stick it to Brady that he threatened to arrest Sarah for perjury if she doesn’t stick to her original statement which shocks Maggie. Xander states that now Brady will go to prison for ten years and Sarah may never walk again, which he says is all his fault.

Eric informs Brady that Fiona swore she was completely sober on the night of the accident and that she tried to talk Brady out of driving, then took a taxi home. Brady points out that he doesn’t remember getting home that night while Eric questions him not remembering if Fiona was drinking. Brady asks if it’s so hard to believe that two people were at a bar and one was drinking while the other wasn’t. Eric responds that it is hard when both people are recovering alcoholics. Eric demands Brady tell him the truth. Brady then admits that Fiona was drinking that night as well.

Fiona tells Sarah that now it’s beginning to make sense and says that Eric is correct that she told him she was with Brady that night, but there’s nothing more to tell and she had nothing to do with the accident. Sarah questions her not saying anything before now then. Fiona says she didn’t want Xander to know she was with Brady because of the bad blood between them. Fiona adds that Xander was already upset about the accident, so she didn’t want to add to his pain. Sarah questions if she didn’t want to admit that she was the cause of it. Fiona claims that she had nothing to do with the accident and that she did everything she could to talk Brady out of driving but he insisted. Fiona then talks about finding out Brady was responsible for hitting Sarah and leaving her there but Sarah shouts that he wasn’t responsible. Fiona argues that Sarah is letting Eric put ideas in her head when he’s desperate to save his brother. Sarah says that doesn’t mean he’s wrong. Fiona argues that Eric wasn’t there but Sarah shouts that she was. Sarah yells that she remembers what she saw and that’s Fiona behind the wheel, so she tells her to just admit that it was her.

Steve questions Chad getting married. Chad explains that going to Paris helped “Abigail” remember how happy they were and that they were in love which he’s been praying for, for months. Chad adds that it was her idea to get married as she wants to feel those emotions again and thinks it might help more memories. Chad guesses Steve won’t say he’s happy for them. Steve admits he still has questions and feels Chad should too. Chad responds that he’s marrying his wife and he’ll give her his best wishes as he hangs up.

“Abigail” tells Mark that she has to go and hangs up as she asks Holly if she knows her. Holly introduces herself and explains that her mother used to be married to EJ. Holly mentions being at the DiMera Mansion awhile back and seeing her. “Abigail” talks about it being hard to keep track of the not so familiar faces and calls it a coincidence to run in to her in Paris. Holly mentions that Nicole lives there now while “Abigail” mentions being there with Chad. Holly promises she wasn’t eavesdropping but says she heard her say that she’s getting married. She says it was kind of spur of the moment but they are very exciting. Holly congratulates her, but questions her saying on the phone that she’s doing it because of her mother.

Mark guesses it’s better that “Abigail” hung up as he questions how he’s supposed to tell her that Clyde wants him to commit murder and kill the man she’s about to marry as Steve then walks in to the room. Mark asks if he needs something. Steve says one of the nurses told him that he could find him here. Steve introduces himself. Mark recalls meeting him a couple of months ago in Kayla’s office. Steve says that Kayla speaks very highly of Mark and told him that she trusts him, so he’d like to ask a favor. Steve brings up Mark running the DNA test for Kayla on “Abigail”, so he hopes he can run it again.

“Abigail” claims that she was on the phone with her brother JJ about Jennifer having a hard time she was accepting that she’s really her daughter. Holly guesses that must be hard for both of them. “Abigail” thinks it will take a leap of faith and hopes getting married will trigger her memories, then her mom can realize she’s really her daughter. Holly says she really hopes it works. “Abigail” thanks her and says it was nice running in to her but she has to go buy something to get married in. Holly then asks if she can come with her.

Maggie questions how this could possibly be Xander’s fault when Kristen is the one who expects Sarah to lie and say she doesn’t remember Brady hitting her. Xander then reveals that wouldn’t be a lie as Sarah doesn’t really remember who was behind the wheel that night. Maggie brings up Sarah’s statement being the reason that Brady is heading to prison. Xander says they both knew Brady was guilty but Sarah felt she had to lie to the police as she had no choice. Xander then reveals that Sarah made up the story to save him, reminding Maggie of when she found him in the office with a gun. Xander figured she didn’t buy his story about needing extra security and admits he was going to use the gun to kill Brady.

Eric realizes Fiona lied to him about staying sober and wonders if she lied about Brady driving too. Brady insists that he woke up in the driver’s seat, so he is the one who hit Sarah, left her there and drove home. Eric asks what if Fiona placed Brady in the car and pulled an Orpheus, reminding him of what Orpheus did to Maggie.

Sarah tells Fiona that she can now see her clearly. Fiona says it doesn’t make sense and asks why she’s doing this when she never had a clear memory of what happened. Sarah insists that she does now and all this time, Fiona has been lying about what she did to her. Fiona continues to deny it and blames Eric putting the idea in her head. Sarah asks how it happened and guesses Fiona must have been drinking too. Fiona insists that she was sober and that she had nothing to drink at the wedding. Sarah argues that she’s talking about later that night at the bar with Brady. Sarah says she is sick of her stonewalling her and pulls out her phone to call Xander but Fiona grabs her phone away and tells her she can’t call Xander because she will lose him when she just got him back in her life. Sarah complains that she hit her with a car and then kept going. Fiona declares that if Xander finds out the truth, she’ll have nothing. Sarah says she doesn’t give a damn. Fiona complains about what it was like for her before, saying she was so lonely and miserable but now after all those years, she finally has a family and her son. Sarah asks if she means his money but Fiona says that’s not what this is about. Sarah says it’s about Fiona running her down in cold blood. Fiona calls it an accident and admits that she was drinking, but that Brady was so much worse and could barely stand on his own feet so she thought she was doing the right thing. Sarah demands her phone back and declares that she’s done listening to her. Fiona says everything would’ve been okay but she took her eyes off the road for one second and Sarah suddenly appeared. Fiona states that she was horrified when she hit her. Sarah questions if she couldn’t call for help. Fiona admits she heard Xander coming and she knew he would take care of her. Fiona adds that she hates herself for what she’s done, but Sarah says not enough to stop Brady taking the fall for it.

Maggie asks if Xander really would’ve gone that far. Xander admits he had blood in his eyes, but he knows how important Brady is to her so it’s difficult to say. Xander complains that he needed justice for Sarah and she wasn’t going to get it unless he did something about it, but when Sarah found out what he was planning, she called the police and told them that she remembered seeing Brady behind the wheel. Maggie realizes that Sarah lied to save Xander from himself. Xander admits to having someone drug Brady so he would pass out and then he went over there with his gun, intending to make it look like a suicide but the police showed up before he could kill Brady. Maggie cries that she told him nothing good could come from his desperation for revenge. Maggie remembers asking Xander to let it go when she saw him with the gun. Xander responds that it was already too late as everything was in motion. Maggie doesn’t want to think about what would’ve happened if the police hadn’t shown up. Xander declares that it all led to this and thanks to him, Brady will stay locked up and Sarah will never get her hands on the cure.

Eric reminds Brady about the night Adrienne was killed when Orpheus ran her off the road but put an unconscious Maggie in the car, so she would wake up and assume she was guilty. Eric asks what if Fiona did the same thing to him.

“Abigail” returns to Chad at the apartment and brings Holly with her, surprising Chad. Chad hugs Holly and asks what she’s doing in Paris. Holly says she came to visit her mom and explains that they are having it out right now. Holly adds that she was on her way to her hotel when she ran in to “Abigail”. Chad questions the hotel and says that sounds lonely as he then invites Holly to stay with them, pointing out that they have plenty of room.

Mark tells Steve that the first DNA test was conclusive. Steve says he understands and know it’s unusual to ask, but his niece’s return has been quite an upheaval for the family. Steve thought another test might give Kayla and everyone some peace of mind and end the whispers. Mark decides he’d be happy to and mentions still having the original samples. Steve reveals he has new samples from “Abigail” and Thomas. Mark says he has time now so he’ll take them to the lab now. Steve asks him to put a rush on it, so Mark says he’ll get them back to him shortly.

Holly asks if Chad is serious and if she won’t be in the way. “Abigail” asks if it’s a good idea with the wedding. Chad points out that they need a witness for the wedding and “Abigail” will need a maid of honor, so Holly can serve double duty.

Xander asks Maggie if she hates him. Maggie responds that she could never hate him, but he is his own worst enemy. Maggie tells Xander that his need for revenge ends up hurting him and the people he loves. Xander says he knows that now, but he doesn’t know how Sarah will ever be able to forgive him. Maggie offers to help by going to talk to Kristen and appeal to her as a mother, so maybe she can convince her to give Sarah the cure. Xander worries that Kristen doesn’t have a heart. Maggie feels she has to try. Xander says it seems like Maggie is always fixing problems that he creates. Maggie says he knows how she feels about him, but she’s doing this for Sarah as she then walks away. Xander sits down with Victoria and says it looks like he’s got them into another fine mess.

Eric tells Brady to think about Fiona realizing that she hit her own daughter in law, panicking, then seeing Brady slumped over in the passenger seat. Brady questions the idea of Fiona dragging him in to the driver’s seat. Eric argues that desperation makes people do things. Brady insists that Fiona wasn’t driving and calls it wild speculation. Eric argues that Brady doesn’t know so he can’t tell him whether or not Fiona was driving. Eric pleads with Brady to search his brain. Brady then remembers Fiona waking him up and telling him that she hit someone.

Fiona asks Sarah how she was supposed to know that Brady would turn himself in. Sarah argues that he did that because he’s a decent human being who wanted to do the responsible thing for something that Fiona made him think he did, which she calls a foreign concept to her. Fiona says she was sure Brady would be cleared after his lawyer worked his magic since his confession was useless if he couldn’t remember, but then Sarah went and identified him. Sarah argues that was to stop Xander from killing him which he never would’ve done if they didn’t think Brady was the one driving. Sarah can’t believe that she told the police that Brady is guilty and now he’s going to spend 10 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Sarah declares that she can’t let that happen even if EJ puts her in prison for perjury, she has to tell everyone the truth about what Fiona did. Fiona tells her that she’s sorry but she can’t let her do that.

Mark returns to Steve with the DNA test results which Steve notes was fast. Mark tells Steve that the results are conclusive and that “Abigail” and Thomas are a perfect match as the samples are definitely mother and son. Steve thanks him and says he really appreciates this as he knew Mark was the guy to ask. Mark says anytime as he then exits. Steve then comments to himself, revealing that he gave Mark DNA samples from himself and Kayla, not Abigail and Thomas. Steve declares that it’s just as he suspected, that Mark faked the original test results, and that whoever that woman is sure is not Abigail.

Chad tells “Abigail” that Holly is all settled in the guest room. “Abigail” says she thought it would just be the two of them. Chad talks about feeling bad with everything going on with Holly’s mother and her staying at a hotel. “Abigail” claims she was worried about her too which is why she brought her here. Chad promises that tomorrow will be a perfect day since they are getting married as he hugs her.

Brady informs Eric that he remembers. Eric asks what he remembers and what he sees. Brady tells him that Fiona was in the car and he was, but she was behind the wheel. Brady remembers Fiona saying she thought she hit somebody. Brady declares that he didn’t do it, he wasn’t driving the car, and he didn’t hit Sarah so he’s innocent.

Sarah questions what Fiona is doing. Fiona responds that she’s doing what she has to do because she’s the only one who knows the truth. Sarah argues that Eric knows too but Fiona disagrees. Fiona tells Sarah that she’s about to have a terrible accident as she wheels her out of the bedroom while Sarah yells for her to stop. Fiona declares that somebody will find her at the bottom of the stairs and they will just think that she lost control of her wheelchair, but no one will be the wiser. Xander then appears and says except for him as he stops her.

Update written by Joseph

Xander goes to the DiMera Mansion, calling out to Kristen, saying they need to talk. Kristen comes out and says there’s no need to shout as she’s right there. Kristen informs Xander that Dr. Rolf is more confident than ever that his adjusted formula will cure Sarah’s paralysis. Kristen then asks if Xander and Sarah spoke with EJ about Brady’s case. Xander confirms they did and that Sarah told EJ that she was mistaken in identifying Brady, so he asks if they can have the serum.

Eric goes to the Kiriakis Mansion and tells Sarah that he needed to talk to her. Sarah assumes it’s about Brady and says she should’ve come to him after coming forward. Eric wants her to be honest as he asks if Brady is innocent and she’s covering for Fiona which Sarah questions. Eric then asks if Fiona was the driver who hit her.

Fiona runs in to Sophia in the town square. Sophia asks if Fiona will be heading back to the Bistro for their lunch special. Fiona thinks back to drinking at the bar and hoping that Eric bought her story. Fiona then informs Sophia that she’s not heading to the Bistro. Sophia says that’s too bad as she was going to update her on her love life. Sophia tells Fiona that the guy she likes broke up with his girlfriend.

Holly arrives in Paris and calls Maggie to tell her that she’s arrived safely. Maggie asks if Holly has seen her mom. Holly says not yet but they are meeting at a café in awhile for their big talk. Maggie wishes her luck and acknowledges that it won’t be easy. Holly states that she has to confront her about lying to her for her entire life about Eric being the one who killed her dad.

“Abigail” tells Chad that she has to be honest with him. Chad asks about what. She thinks back to talking to Mark about lying to Chad and not having a choice. “Abigail” then tells Chad that she doesn’t think it’s a good idea to be intimate just yet. Chad says that’s fine and they can wait as long as she wants. She clarifies that she doesn’t want to wait that long as she thinks there’s something they should do first. “Abigail” then asks Chad what if they got married which surprises Chad.

Xander asks Kristen to take him to Dr. Rolf because Sarah needs this serum. Kristen stops him and says she needs details about what EJ said when Sarah recanted her story. Xander asks why that matters since Sarah told him that she was wrong to identify Brady and that’s what Kristen wanted. Kristen questions EJ just accepting it. Xander points out that without Sarah’s ID, EJ has no case. Kristen asks if EJ said he would drop the charges. Xander hopes he’s doing that as they speak and asks to be taken to Dr. Rolf. Kristen stops him and says she will call EJ to ask him if he’s dropping the charges. Xander asks if that can’t wait since every second they keep the serum from Sarah is another second she suffers. Kristen calls EJ, but Xander takes her phone and hangs up. Kristen questions what he’s doing and then accuses him of lying to her.

Sarah questions Eric thinking Fiona hit her and where this is coming from. Eric asks her to just answer if Fiona was the hit and run driver. Sarah says of course not and questions where she got this idea. Eric reveals that he saw Sarah and Fiona in the park yesterday and he overheard them talking about keeping a secret. Sarah swears it had nothing to do with Fiona being the hit and run driver.

Fiona asks Sophia what happened with the guy she likes and his girlfriend. Sophia says she wasn’t treating him right and they got in a huge fight. Fiona asks if Sophia had anything to do with the fight. Sophia responds that she didn’t have to do a thing as she messed it up all on her own.

Maggie tells Holly that this isn’t going to be an easy conversation for her or Nicole, but she hopes Holly finds it in her heart to forgive her and understand why she kept the truth from her for so long. Holly says they will see. Maggie says she loves her and they will talk soon as they hang up. Holly looks around, wondering where Nicole is.

Sarah assures Eric that she and Fiona weren’t talking about her accident when he overheard them. Eric asks what they were talking about then. Sarah thinks back to talking to Fiona about her lying to the police when she identified Brady as the driver to stop Xander from killing him. Sarah then tells Eric that she’s sorry that she can’t say, but it had absolutely nothing to do with Fiona being the driver that hit her. Sarah adds if that were the case, she wouldn’t cover for her. Sarah guesses Eric doesn’t believe her and understands it’s hard to accept that Brady did it, but questions how one overheard conversation convinced him it was Fiona. Eric reveals it was more than just that one conversation.

Fiona sits with Sophia and asks her to tell her all about this breakup. Sophia asks if she’s sure she doesn’t have somewhere to go. Fiona says she’s grateful for the distraction and asks what the girl did to mess everything up. Sophia tells her that she went through his dad’s things and got caught, so they fought and she told him it’s over just like that. Sophia mentions Holly saying that she and Tate deserved each other and stormed off. Fiona stops her to question when she realizes she’s talking about Holly and Tate.

Tate comes across Maggie sitting outside the Brady Pub with Victoria. Maggie invites him to sit. Tate asks how Sarah’s doing. Maggie says she’s doing alright and getting used to her new reality. Maggie thanks him for asking. Tate says he feels really terrible about what happened to her and Brady does too. Maggie says she knows Brady does. Maggie knows it must be difficult for Tate with his mother in prison and his father heading there too. Tate feels wrong to feel sorry for himself when Sarah’s in a wheelchair. Maggie says he’s allowed to feel that way. Tate feels like he’s losing everyone he cares about with his mom and dad. Maggie asks about Holly. Tate is surprised that Holly told her they broke up and notes that she wasn’t in school today, so he asks if she’s okay. Maggie responds that she is okay and then reveals that Holly is in Paris which surprises Tate.

Chad questions “Abigail” wanting to get married. She says she knows it’s sudden but talks about her feelings for him coming back. Chad points out that she’s not ready to be intimate. She says they are still sort of strangers in a way even with the feelings. She says she wants to remember their love and life together, so she thinks maybe getting married could make that happen. Chad questions her thinking that getting married will help get her memories back. She knows it’s wishful thinking but points out they are in Paris and brings up her wedding vows memory coming back. She feels like recommitting to him in Paris might be the jolt she needs to have memories come flooding back. “Abigail” then asks Chad if he will marry her.

Tate questions Maggie saying that Holly is in Paris. Maggie explains that Holly wanted to see her mother but Nicole couldn’t fly because Jude had an ear infection. Maggie adds that Holly needed to confront Nicole about her father’s death. Tate comments that it really sucks that Eric and Nicole lied to her all these years about what really happened. Maggie states that Nicole was trying to protect her and they all just went along with it. Tate gets why Holly is hurt by that but argues that it doesn’t excuse what she tried to do to his dad which Maggie questions, so Tate realizes that Holly didn’t tell Maggie why they broke up. Tate informs Maggie that it all started when he caught Holly digging through Brady’s stuff in his room as she was trying to help EJ find dirt to send Brady to prison. Tate says he confronted her and she got really defensive, then when Sophia tried to stick up for him, Holly physically attacked her.

Fiona questions Sophia talking about Holly and Tate. Sophia asks if Fiona knows them. Fiona says she just happens to live in the same house as Holly, explaining that Maggie’s daughter is married to her son. Sophia calls it a small world and brings up when Fiona ordered a martini at the Bistro. Fiona cuts her off and orders her to forget that she ever ordered a drink.

Kristen questions if Xander really thought she was stupid enough to just take his word for it. Xander argues that they did as she asked and told EJ that Sarah recanted but he refused to listen, so it’s EJ’s fault and not theirs. Kristen questions if EJ is not dropping the charges then. Xander confirms that EJ said he will use Sarah’s original statement to put Brady away and that there’s nothing they can do about it. Kristen disagrees that there’s nothing. Xander insists that they already tried really hard to talk him out of it. Kristen suggests going public and have Sarah post the truth on social media and tell the Spectator that she admited she was wrong about naming Brady as the hit and run driver, so the world will know EJ is hellbent on prosecuting Brady for something he didn’t do. Kristen adds they could go straight to Paulina since she doesn’t want another scandal and they can make it clear that EJ has gone rogue, ignoring that his own eye witness has taken back her statement. Xander responds that he’s sorry but they can’t do that.

Sarah questions Eric accusing Fiona of running her over and lying about it. Eric asks if she knew that Fiona and Brady were sleeping together. Sarah confirms that Fiona admitted it to Xander as they didn’t know who each other were and that it didn’t last very long. Sarah questions why that matters. Eric then reveals that Fiona and Brady were together on the night of Sarah’s accident.

“Abigail” comments on Chad not giving her the rousing “yes” that she was hoping for. Chad assures that he wants to be married to Abigail more than anything but he thought when they got married, it would be with their children and families. “Abigail” says it would be that way in a perfect world but they can go home to Salem to share the good news and announce that her memories came back. Chad asks what if it doesn’t happen. “Abigail” promises that she will keep her word and tell the children the truth. Chad says he can hardly remember a time that he didn’t love Abigail and want to be married to her. “Abigail” asks if that’s a yes. Chad then says if she wants to get married, they will get married one last time as they kiss.

Maggie questions Tate saying that Holly slapped Sophia, arguing that it doesn’t sound like her. Tate insists that’s what happened. Maggie feels that Holly must have been provoked. Tate assures that all Sophia did was call Holly out for snooping on Brady and that she also might have mentioned having feelings for him. Maggie calls that provocative. Maggie doesn’t believe that Holly would hit Sophia because she knows her granddaughter but she doesn’t know Sophia. Tate points out that he knows Sophia and she’s actually been a pretty good friend to him. Maggie questions how good and if Sophia’s feelings for him are mutual. Maggie then gets a call from Holly.

Fiona warns Sophia again not to say a word about the martini. Fiona explains that her son and his family believe that she’s sober so if they found out otherwise, it would be a disaster. Sophia doesn’t see the big deal but Fiona insists it’s an enormous deal. Fiona makes Sophia swear that if anyone asks, she has only ever served her water. Fiona warns that she is not some teenager she can mess with and threatens Sophia to keep her mouth shut or she’ll be sorry.

Sarah questions Eric saying that Brady was with Fiona on the night of the accident, admitting that Fiona never mentioned that. Sarah asks how he knows. Eric explains that the waiter at Small Bar told him that Fiona and Brady left together and then Fiona happened to walk in. Eric says Fiona first said they left separately but when he told her what the waiter said, she changed her story and said she went after Brady to try to persuade him to take a taxi but he doesn’t believe her. Eric adds that he also doesn’t believe Fiona when she said she hadn’t had a drink all night.

Kristen questions why Xander can’t go to the press or to Paulina to tell the truth and force EJ’s hand. Xander explains that EJ is threatening to prosecute Sarah for making a false statement. Xander declares he won’t let EJ lock Sarah away for perjury while she’s still recovering from this accident. Kristen doesn’t believe a judge would put Sarah behind bars for that. Xander worries that EJ has a lot of connections and deep pockets. Kristen says this isn’t right. Xander argues that they tried and pleads with Kristen to give him the serum even though she didn’t get the outcome she wanted, pointing out that Sarah deserves a chance to walk again.

“Abigail” thanks Chad for agreeing to get married. Chad says if he would’ve known, he would’ve bought her a ring. “Abigail” says she doesn’t need one but she will need something to wear. Chad gives her his credit card and tells her to go buy a dress while he makes some calls to find someone to marry them. “Abigail” says it sounds like a dream as they kiss and she then exits.

Maggie tells Tate that she has to take the call so Tate says he’ll see her around and walks away. Maggie answers Holly’s call. Holly informs her that she just talked to her mom and admits it went better than expected as Nicole just apologized a bunch and seemed pretty sincere. Maggie asks where she is now. Holly explains that Nicole had to go home to relieve the babysitter and she needed time alone to think, but they have plans to meet again tomorrow. Maggie asks how she’s feeling now. Holly says she’s relieved and still processing. Maggie says she will be for quite some time and hopes she can let Nicole help her and maybe Eric too. Maggie asks where Holly is staying tonight. Holly says that Nicole booked her a hotel room near where they live. Maggie tells her to call anytime if she wants to talk. Holly thanks her for the support and says she loves her. Maggie adds that her father would be so proud of her as they hang up.

Fiona asks Sophia if they have an understanding. Sophia tells her to chill out as she already swore not to tell anyone how much she loves a dry martini because she’s not a snitch. Fiona then walks away while Sophia calls her a bitch.

Sarah tells Eric that Fiona doesn’t drink. Eric says that’s what she claims but he guesses it’s all a moot point since Sarah remembered seeing Brady that night. Eric decides he should go and apologizes for barging in and accusing her of lying. Sarah says it’s okay. Eric acknowledges that she’s been through so much and he can’t imagine how hard it’s been for her. Sarah knows it’s a struggle for Brady as well and that he’s feeling incredibly guilty and he has to go to jail. Eric admits it’s been really tough. Eric worries for Brady’s kids not wanting to lose him. Eric tells Sarah to take care and exits.

Kristen tells Xander that she’s sorry but it’s no can do on the serum as a deal is deal. Xander questions if she has no heart, arguing that she owes Sarah after everything she’s done to her. Kristen calls it a simple transaction if he gets the charges dropped, he gets the serum. Xander complains that EJ is the only person who can do that and he refuses. Xander continues pleading with her that Sarah needs to be able to walk again and take care of their little girl. Kristen argues that she has a little girl too and her father is looking to spend a decade behind bars. Kristen suggests Xander try harder to make that not happen. Kristen says she wants Sarah to walk again but she’s not running a charity. Xander grabs her arm but Kristen warns him that she’s his only link to that serum. Xander remarks that the DiMeras aren’t the only ones capable of the unthinkable. Xander asks if she’s checked on Rachel lately, reminding her of what he’s capable of. Xander suggests Rachel could disappear from the playground, never to be seen again. Kristen warns him to tread lightly when it comes to making threats about the people she loves. Kristen adds that if Xander touches a hair on Rachel, she will make sure that Dr. Rolf disappears with the serum that will cure Sarah’s spinal cord. Xander then storms out of the mansion.

Chad looks at he and Abigail’s old wedding photo, then he gets a call from Steve.

“Abigail” calls Mark and tells him that she has news. Holly then walks by behind her at the café in Paris.

Tate finds Sophia in the town square and tells her about running in to Holly’s grandmother. Tate says it turns out that Holly wasn’t in school because she flew out to Paris. Sophia calls that great news as maybe she and her mom can work things out. Tate is surprised Sophia cares. Sophia claims that Holly is still her friend. Tate points out that even though Holly attacked her. Sophia states that just because they like the same guy, doesn’t mean she wants her to be miserable. Sophia admits she wouldn’t hate it if Holly decided to stay in Paris, so she could have Tate all to herself.

Xander joins Maggie outside the Pub. Maggie says she and Victoria were just heading home and asks if everything is alright. Xander reveals to Maggie that Kristen has a cure for Sarah’s paralysis but she’s refusing to hand it over.

Kristen talks to the portrait of Stefano, remarking that they both know he would’ve done much worse to get what he wants from his opponent. Kristen hopes that she motivated Xander enough to help Brady get out from under those charges.

Sarah goes to her bedroom and thinks back to Eric questioning her about Fiona. Sarah tells herself that it can’t be but then she has a flashback to the hit and run. Fiona then enters the room.

Days of Our Lives Update

 

Update written by Joseph

Mark visits Clyde in prison. Clyde hopes he’s bringing him good news, warning that if his sister doesn’t seal the deal with Chad soon, their mom is a dead woman.

Chad and “Abigail” arrive at their vacation home in Paris, France. Chad talks about how they had a lot of amazing memories here. “Abigail” thinks the place will change everything.

Julie informs Maggie that Chad and “Abigail” went to Paris, hoping that it will help “Abigail” find herself again. Julie invites Maggie to stay for tea as they have some catching up to do.

EJ tells Sarah that he won’t allow her to recant her statement and he has a busy day. Xander argues that Sarah can no longer identify Brady as the driver who hit her. EJ argues that she seemed pretty positive when she told the police and they were finally able to arrest somebody. Sarah declares that she made a mistake, so he needs to release Brady immediately.

Eric sits at a corner table of the bar and watches Fiona. Eric thinks back to seeing Fiona and Sarah talk about keeping a secret in the park. Eric then approaches Fiona and introduces himself, mentioning that he recently learned that she and Brady were romantically involved, so he hopes she doesn’t mind him asking a few questions. Fiona is afraid she doesn’t have much to say as their affair was short and sweet. Fiona says she would look back fondly except for the fact that Brady got drunk and ran over her daughter in law. Eric hoped she could give him more detail on the night of the accident. Fiona questions why she would know anything about that. Eric brings up that she was with Brady that night.

EJ questions what’s going on here as he thought Xander and Sarah wanted Brady to pay for putting Sarah in a wheelchair. Xander insists that they do, so EJ questions why they are suddenly changing their story. Xander thinks back to telling Sarah about Kristen’s ultimatum.

Mark promises Clyde that everything is falling in to place. Clyde argues that Chad has DNA evidence that Mark’s sister is Abigail so he questions what the problem is. Mark explains that it’s not Chad but everyone else in Salem including friends, family, and doctors as his sister has been cross examined for every slip up. Clyde brings up what he will do to their mom. Mark assures that “Abigail” is ready to seal the deal and has come up with the perfect way for Clyde to get what he wants.

Chad talks about “Abigail” being passionate about art and says he’s just happy to be here with her. Chad decides to get some wine for them to celebrate their return to Paris. “Abigail” asks Chad to tell her some stories about their time in Paris. Chad talks about how they would take the kids to a different park every Sunday and how they re-enacted a TLC music video. Chad calls it a wonderful moment with the kids. “Abigail” calls him a really good husband and father. Chad credits having her by his side. She says it seems they were very happy here. Chad admits it wasn’t all sunshine, rainbows, and waterfalls.

Clyde questions Mark about “Abigail” dragging Chad off to Paris. Mark explains that in Salem, she would be forced to include the kids and doesn’t want to traumatize the children. Clyde complains that she seems too in to her character. Mark argues that she’s a good person and wouldn’t be involved in something like this if Clyde wasn’t threatening to kill their mother.

Julie tells Maggie that meeting “Abigail” was unique since she looks nothing like the Abigail they knew, had the eyes of a stranger, and was very cold to her. Maggie suggests she just felt awkward, not remembering anything or anyone. Julie talks about Chad hoping she will remember more in Paris. Julie asks Maggie how Sarah is doing. Maggie says she’s putting on a brave face, but she’s struggling to adapt. Maggie says she’s trying her best to help her. Julie brings up Maggie being on crutches for years and walking again as well as being paralyzed recently but being healed. Maggie says she was lucky to have surgery but she doesn’t think Sarah will get that miracle.

Sarah assures EJ that she absolutely wants Brady to pay for what he did to her, but she can’t lie and say something is true when it’s not. EJ argues that’s exactly what’s happening here as Sarah either lied about seeing Brady behind the wheel or she’s lying now, so he questions which one it is.

Fiona tells Eric that she was there before the accident with Brady and questions if Eric is conducting an investigation. Eric says Brady is in a world of trouble so he’s been clinging to hope that there’s more to the story about what happened that night. Eric says he’s here to find out more information about that night, so he hoped she could fill in the blanks for him. Fiona doesn’t know what she can tell him that he doesn’t already know. Eric suggests starting from the beginning. Fiona says she spent most of the day with Xander and Sarah as they had just gotten married and then she got a text from Brady to meet him at the bar. Fiona claims she planned on ending things with him that night since she was in a better place with Xander and his family. Fiona says she didn’t know who Brady was at first but had found out about his contentious relationship with Xander. Fiona mentions coming to the bar and calming down Brady’s argument with the waiter with a generous tip. Fiona says they talked and then Brady left, got in his car and hit Sarah as she identified him to the police. Eric still has questions since Fiona implied earlier that Brady left alone, but the waiter told him that they left together.

Xander questions EJ accusing Sarah of lying when she’s the most honest person he knows. EJ says except when it comes to the paternity of her children which upsets Xander. Sarah admits she’s been dishonest in the past which is why she can’t let her initial statement about Brady stand as she can’t let Brady go down for something she’s no longer sure he did. EJ says that’s too bad because Sarah already gave a sworn statement, Brady’s been arrested, and a conviction has been guaranteed to the Mayor. EJ declares he will not have egg on his face because Sarah isn’t sure that her very definite memory is a false one. Xander questions EJ gladly convicting an innocent man to protect his fragile ego. EJ argues that they all know Brady is guilty. EJ promises that if Sarah retracts her statement, he will have her arrested for perjury.

Maggie tells Julie that it’s so hard to see Sarah suffer like she did as she can see the pain in her eyes. Maggie hopes that some day, Sarah can see her life can still be as rewarding as before. Maggie talks about Sarah having Victoria and Xander, but admits Xander has been obsessed with revenge on Brady. Maggie thinks Xander has let that go and is focused on Sarah’s recovery, especially now that Brady is facing justice. Julie talks about Sarah suddenly remembering Brady being the driver. Maggie questions if Julie is saying that Sarah lied.

Chad talks with “Abigail” about the problems they had while in Paris including Austin showing up. Chad admits they had rough times and obstacles, but they always got through them together which is why he knows they’ll get through this too. “Abigail” then claims that she’s starting to remember.

Clyde tells Mark that he knows who he gets in bed with and his sister is no saint. Mark argues that she’s never done anything like this before and neither has he. Clyde argues that they’ll do anything for their mother and he will deliver her to them as long as his sister comes through. Mark assures that it won’t be long before she’s Mrs. Chad DiMera. Clyde informs Mark that it doesn’t work for him, as he wants her to be the widow DiMera. Mark questions what Clyde is talking about as he thought he just wanted Chad’s fortune and his sister would just drain his accounts. Clyde decides it’s easier if Chad dies. Mark worries that would just raise questions. Clyde says it can’t be traced back to him and argues that his lawyer should be able to get him out of prison in time to collect his fortune. Mark asks how that’s possible when Clyde’s a convicted murderer. Clyde points out that with “Abigail’s” resurrection, there’s no murder to convict. Mark asks about his drug ring and other charges. Clyde assures it can be thrown out and that he will soon be a free man.

Chad questions if “Abigail” remembers their life together. She says she doesn’t remember specific events and it’s not memories but she remembers feelings of being in Paris before. She declares that she finally feels like Abigail DiMera. Chad excitedly hugs her. She then tells Chad that she remembers how much she loves him and then kisses him.

Julie tells Maggie that if she was hit by a car and paralyzed as the driver drove away, she would be highly motivated to make the driver pay for what he did. Maggie doesn’t think Sarah would be dishonest to get there and points out that Xander wanted her to lie but she refused. Julie is sure that justice will be served but argues that if Brady is addicted to alcohol, it’s just an illness. Maggie knows Brady is a good person that just made a terrible decision and he’s being punished for it. Julie points out that Brady wants to pay the price. Maggie hopes that Sarah and Xander can move forward with their lives and heal.

Xander asks if EJ is insane for wanting to charge Sarah with perjury. EJ points out that Sarah made a sworn statement to the police. Sarah blames the pain medication but EJ argues that she could try to recant her retraction in a week. Sarah insists that she made a mistake and pleads with EJ to release Brady. EJ declares that mistake will cost her ten years behind bars. Xander questions what he’s talking about. EJ explains that there’s a plea deal on the table and Brady has agreed to ten years in prison, so he’s going to make sure that somebody gets that deal and if it’s not Brady, it’s going to be Sarah. Xander argues that he won’t let EJ bully them in to silence. EJ warns that he has Sarah’s original statement and fully intends to use it to put Brady in prison, but if they want to stop him, he’ll just put Sarah in his place. EJ then walks out of the mansion.

Fiona tells Eric that Brady did leave on his own, but she went after him as she was afraid he might be too drunk to drive, so she offered to call him a cab but he insisted he was fine, so she let him go. Fiona says if she knew what was going to happen, she would’ve done everything possible to stop him from driving and she deeply regrets that she didn’t. Eric asks how she got home that night. Fiona claims that she took a cab to her hotel and then Xander called her about Sarah. Fiona says she’d rather not keep reliving this. Eric asks if Fiona was drinking that night. Fiona claims she doesn’t drink ever as she’s a recovering alcoholic. Eric points out that Brady is too. Fiona insists that she hasn’t had a drink in years. Eric questions her not partaking in drinking with Brady. Fiona claims that they talked while he drank. Fiona complains that this is starting to feel like a third degree. Eric says he’s just curious and looking out for his brother. Fiona hopes she’s been of some help to him. Eric says she’s been very helpful and thanks her for her time as he then exits.

Xander calls EJ an arrogant bastard and says he’s going to ruin everything. Sarah tells him to focus as she asks what they are going to do, since Kristen won’t hand over the serum if Brady is still being charged. Xander says they tried and Kristen understands how stubborn EJ is, so maybe she’ll still give them the serum. Xander decides he has to talk to Kristen. Sarah offers to go with him but Xander says he has to handle this and exits the mansion.

Julie tells Maggie that Sarah got her memory back, so hopefully “Abigail” will too, especially now that they are in Paris together. Julie adds that “Abigail” did swear to tell the children their mother is alive when they return. Maggie states that would be an easier conversation if she did have her memory back, so it sounds like there’s a lot riding on this Paris trip.

Chad tells “Abigail” that he’s so happy that she remembers who they are and how much they love eeach other as they continue kissing. She removes his jacket and starts to unbutton his shirt, but stops and says she can’t do this.

Mark doesn’t understand why Clyde would risk his chance at freedom by murdering Chad. Clyde insists it won’t be tracked back to him. Mark asks if he’s going to send a hitman. Clyde then reveals he wants Mark to be that hitman.

Xander goes to the DiMera Mansion in a rush, calling out to Kristen, saying they need to talk.

Eric goes to the Kiriakis Mansion and tells Sarah that he needed to talk to her. Sarah assumes it’s about Brady and says she should’ve come to him after coming forward. Eric wants her to be honest as he asks if Brady is innocent and she’s covering for Fiona.

Fiona hopes Eric bought her story since she doesn’t want to think about if he didn’t, as she has a drink.

Maggie tells Julie that it was good catching up and she should get back to Sarah. They talk about praying for Sarah as well as Chad and “Abigail”. Julie remarks that all the misery in town can be traced back to Clyde Weston. Maggie can’t believe Clyde had “Abigail” all this time while they thought she was dead. Julie declares that Clyde is in super max prison now and can never hurt anyone in their family again…

Mark questions Clyde wanting him to kill Chad. Mark says he won’t and can’t do it. Clyde warns Mark that he has blood on his hands no matter what happens as either Chad dies or his mom does.

“Abigail” tells Chad that she has to be honest with him. Chad asks about what. She thinks back to talking to Mark about lying to Chad and not having a choice. “Abigail” then tells Chad that she doesn’t think it’s a good idea to be intimate just yet. Chad says that’s fine and they can wait as long as she wants. She clarifies that she doesn’t want to wait that long as she thinks there’s something they should do first. “Abigail” then asks Chad what if they got married?

Update written by Joseph

Gabi remains in her hospital bed, reading a magazine. As she comes across wedding photos, she throws the magazine across the room right as Melinda arrives to check on her. Melinda says she was sure Gabi was gone after the bomb but Gabi says she’s doing okay and due to be released later today. Melinda then admits that she’s not just there to check on her as she has a bit of an ulterior motive.

EJ joins Stefan in the living room of the DiMera Mansion and pours a drink as he mocks him. Stefan questions EJ being so jolly. EJ responds that he’s ecstatic that Brady is getting what he deserves.

Eric sits with Brady in the interrogation rom at the police station. Eric tells Brady about Holly going to see Nicole in Paris, hoping it will remind Holly of how close they’ve always been. Eric mentions that EJ has been trying to poison Holly against Nicole. Brady tells him that EJ was just there to talk about the plea he’s entering in tomorrow. Brady tells Eric that he’s guilty of the crime so that is how he’s going to plea.

In the living room of the Kiriakis Mansion, Victoria cries while Sarah struggles in her wheelchair which Fiona looks in to the room and sees.

Xander finishes a call in the Titan office as Kristen walks in and asks when he’s going to get Brady out of jail. Xander says never.

Gabi asks Melinda what her ulterior motive is. Melinda reveals that she has Gabi Chic paper work for her to sign. Melinda adds that Stefan also asked her to drop off her divorce papers. Melinda mentions that she’s loyal to her job at DiMera which Gabi is a big part of, so if she wants her to turn Stefan down, she can just say the word.

Stefan comments that EJ gets jolly off putting people behind bars and sleeping with his brother’s wife. EJ repeats that Gabi came on to him while Stefan complains that he could’ve turned her down. EJ brings up that Gabi and Stefan are well on their way to a divorce, pointing out that Gabi told him when he saw her last night.

Sarah’s phone rings which she struggles to reach in her wheelchair. Fiona comes in and asks if she’s alright. Sarah complains about being unable to reach Victoria’s toy as she’s crying, so Fiona gets it for her.

Brady tells Eric that EJ offered him a deal of a reduced sentence in exchange for a guilty plea. Brady informs Eric that the sentence is for 10 years. Brady thinks John was hoping Justin could pull off a miracle, but he doesn’t want a slap on the wrist, feeling he needs to pay for what he did.

Kristen questions Xander not getting Brady out of jail, reminding him that the only way Sarah will get out of the wheelchair is if he frees Brady as then she will hand over Dr. Rolf’s miracle serum. Xander calls it an intriguing proposal, but questions why he should believe a word she says.

Stefan questions EJ visiting Gabi in her hospital room last night. EJ says he went to inform her that Rafe warned him to stay away from her, given that they have to co-exist in the same happy household until their divorce goes through. Stefan believes that Gabi wants nothing to do with EJ now that she can’t use him anymore for revenge sex, but suggests he heeds Rafe’s advice and stay the hell away from her. EJ brings up that Gabi mentioned it was Stefan who filed for divorce. EJ questions why he has to stay away from Gabi if the marriage is over and why Stefan cares.

Gabi informs Melinda that Stefan told her that he was going to file for divorce and they both agreed the marriage is over, so it’s time to move forward. Gabi tells Melinda that it’s fine with her if she represents Stefan.

Brady tells Eric that he feels so wrong here with Daniel’s heart beating in his chest, pointing out that he wouldn’t be here if Daniel hadn’t died and it’s like he squandered that gift. Eric disagrees and encourages that Brady still has a future and just has to atone for the things he did. Brady doesn’t feel his guilt will go away anytime soon. Eric says not completely, but he will learn how to live with it.

Sarah doesn’t know what she would’ve done if Fiona hadn’t come in since everyone is out and she told Maggie that she’d be fine on her own with Victoria, but she’s clearly not. Fiona encourages her while Sarah cries that she feels like she’s failing. Fiona talks about the ordeal Sarah has gone through and says she’s so sorry. Sarah questions what she is sorry for. Fiona calls it a tragic mistake that she was with Brady. Sarah says she couldn’t have known that would happen and assures that she and Xander are grateful to her for all the help during this difficult time. Sarah thanks her for keeping quiet about her lying to the police. Fiona understands that her lie saved Brady and Xander. Sarah assures that she would’ve never identified Brady to the police if she had any doubt that he was driving that night, but she wishes she could remember seeing him behind the wheel. Fiona says that what happened saddens her terribly. Sarah notes that Victoria has finally fallen back asleep. Sarah thinks she needs some time alone with her daughter to prove she can do this, so Fiona says she will see her later and exits the room.

Xander asks if Kristen is insane, complaining about Sarah being used as Dr. Rolf’s guinea pig. Kristen thinks she shoul make her own decision but Xander doesn’t want to get her hopes up about a mythical potion that they don’t know if it will work or if it even exists. Kristen assures that Dr. Rolf has been working around the clock and it’s almost ready. Xander questions why he should trust her. Kristen talks about Dr. Rolf being a genius, bringing up the miracles he performed on Marlena, Kayla, and Bo, and how he kept Stefan alive for years without a heart. Xander then asks Kristen to take him to Dr. Rolf’s lab to show him the proof. Kristen worries that Xander will try to have his thugs steal the drug without giving her what she deserves so she declines. Kristen offers to show him clinical data so that Sarah can look it over, but says Xander has to make the charges against Brady disappear. Xander asks how to do that. Kristen argues that Brady was free until Sarah’s bogus claims, so she will have to recant or else she’ll never walk again and it will be Xander’s fault.

Stefan tells EJ that he and Gabi might be through, but he still cares about her and he won’t have her yoked to an ass like him. EJ remarks that it’s not his jurisdiction anymore. EJ adds that they all have to live together somehow, until Gabi takes the home from him and some of his other assets which Stefan says won’t happen. EJ points out that divorces can get nasty. Stefan states that he and Gabi talked and they agreed that it’s been enough. Stefan adds that he wouldn’t be surprised if Gabi never shows up in this house again, but is then surprised when Gabi comes home.

Eric sits with Roman at the Brady Pub and tells him about Brady getting 10 years in prison but Eric is convinced there is more to it.

Xander goes home and questions Sarah crying. Sarah explains that Victoria threw her toy and she couldn’t reach it, but thankfully Fiona came in. Xander says he’s so sorry. Sarah cries that she hates it and felt so helpless, like she couldn’t be a mother to her own daughter. Sarah says she shouldn’t have let herself get so upset over a toy, arguing that plenty of parents raise children with disabilities. Sarah calls it a fact of life for her now that she is disabled and there is nothing she can do about it. Xander responds that it’s not necessarily true.

Fiona goes to see Brady in the interrogation room. Brady thought last time he saw her was goodbye so he didn’t expect to see her. Fiona responds that things are different now as last time, she thought he was going to be a free man but it looks like he’s going for a lengthy stay in prison. Brady questions how that changes anything. Fiona declares that she has a confession to make.

EJ laughs at Stefan saying Gabi would never enter the house again and points out that he was once again colossally wrong. Gabi says she was discharged and took a taxi. EJ says she should’ve called and he would’ve picked her up. Gabi knows he has a busy schedule. EJ admits he’s late for a meeting, so he exits the room. Stefan asks Gabi how she is. Gabi says she’s hanging in, but admits she was a little thrown by her last visitor being Melinda, who told her that he hired her. Stefan states that he needed a lawyer. Gabi calls it unusual to hire corporate counsel as a family attorney. Stefan explains that he wanted someone in his corner that he could trust which Gabi questions. Gabi guesses it helps that Melinda had a crush on him, so she’ll make sure that she doesn’t take him for everything he’s worth. Stefan asks if that’s still what she plans on doing.

Sarah questions Xander telling her about a serum from Dr. Rolf. Xander knows it sounds risky but explains that Kristen gave him the data on this drug which Sarah laughs off. Xander insists that it seems like the real deal and she can go over the data herself. Sarah questions why Kristen is willing to help them this way. Xander admits there is one catch as Kristen won’t give them the serum unless she disavows her positive identification of Brady. Xander says he’s sorry as he knows he’s the reason she lied to the police in the first place, but points out that it would be worth it to be able to walk and run again and play with Victoria. Sarah decides she needs to think about it, but Xander points out it’s a limited time offer since Brady’s plea hearing is tomorrow. Xander says he can call EJ over to take her statement if she says the word.

Roman knows Eric wants to believe by some miracle that Brady isn’t responsible for Sarah’s accident. Eric insists that something just isn’t adding up, like Sarah suddenly remembering seeing Brady at the wheel even though hypnosis couldn’t break through her mental block. Eric says that Marlena felt that would be exceedingly rare without a triggering moment. Eric adds that when Jada came to arrest Brady, Xander was there so he must have broken in. Eric states that Brady was adamant that he had not been drinking, so he’s thinking he must have been drugged. Eric insists that the whole story seems off somehow which Roman agree with. Eric then brings up seeing Sarah talking to Fiona in the park and he overheard them talking about a secret. Eric mentions Fiona being in a relationship with Brady which Roman had no idea of. Eric says it was brief and been over for a while now, but wonders if it’s possible that Fiona is somehow connected to the accident. Eric thinks Fiona was with Brady that night and that’s the secret they were keeping. Roman suggests asking Brady but Eric says he doesn’t remember a lot about that night, so he has another idea.

Brady questions Fiona’s confession. Fiona says when she first came to Salem, she told Xander that she was sober as that was the only way he’d accept her back in his life and it’s the only reason that she got to know Victoria and Sarah which brought her so much joy. Fiona adds that watching Sarah suffer has made her realize she can’t keep doing this, but Kristen walks in and questions who the hell she is and what she’s doing here.

Gabi tells Stefan that she’s well within her rights to take as much as the DiMera fortune as she can get, but more than anything she just wants this to be over with as like Stefan said, there’s nothing left to fight for. Stefan asks what Gabi is doing here then. Gabi responds that she didn’t come to see him and if she knew he was there, she would’ve waited. Gabi reveals she came to collect her things. Stefan questions if she’s moving out. Gabi confirms she is for good. Gabi says to give her a few minutes and then she’ll be out of his hair as she then exits the room.

EJ goes to the Kiriakis Mansion and tells Xander that this better be good as he was supposed to be in a meeting ten minutes ago. Xander says it’s important and about Brady’s case. EJ says he wanted to talk to him about that too since he and Brady worked out a plea deal for 10 years. EJ says he knows they wanted more but this at least guarantees Brady will be locked up in prison where he belongs. Xander responds that he wouldn’t be too sure about that.

Brady introduces Kristen to Xander’s mother, Fiona Cook. Kristen recalls seeing Fiona’s picture in the paper and questions what she is doing here. Fiona claims that she was just telling Brady how trying it’s been to watch Sarah suffer because of him and she’s glad he’s going to pay. Fiona says goodbye to Brady and storms out. Kristen questions the nerve of Fiona to come in and say those horrible things to him. Brady tells Kristen that she shouldn’t be here either. Kristen informs Brady that he will be getting out soon.

Eric goes to the bar and shows the waiter a picture of Brady, asking if he remembers him. The waiter admits it’s hard to forget that face since he was getting hammered one night and looking for a fight. He adds that it was the night that Brady went out and ran over that poor doctor. Eric questions why he didn’t stop him from leaving if he was so intoxicated. The waiter reveals that the lady said she had it under control, so Eric questions which lady.

Gabi returns with her things. Stefan argues that it can’t be everything. Gabi says she asked Harold to send the rest. Stefan asks if she’s going to stay with Rafe. Gabi says if his lawyer needs to get in touch, she’ll see her at work. Stefan says that isn’t why he was asking and he was just wondering. Stefan thought they said their last goodbye yesterday. Gabi admits she did too as she holds back tears. Gabi tells Stefan not to worry as this will be the last time as she then exits.

Brady tells Kristen not to do whatever she’s thinking about doing. Brady knows she wants to help but he’s pleading guilty tomorrow and going to prison. Kristen tells him it won’t get that far. Kristen remarks that Sarah will be on her knees thanking her when this is all done. Brady questions why she would do that. Kristen says he’ll see and exits the room.

EJ questions Xander saying Brady might not be going to prison. Xander assures they still want to see him punished for his crimes, but Sarah is no longer confident in the statement she gave to the police. EJ questions Sarah, who confirms that she’s not sure it was Brady driving that night. EJ argues that she seemed pretty sure when she told Jada it was definitely Brady. Sarah says now that she’s had time to think about it, the image isn’t very clear and says maybe she dreamed it because she wanted to believe it. Xander talks about Sarah taking pain medications and muscle relaxers which could affect her thinking. EJ questions what exactly they are both saying. Sarah declares that she would like to recant her statement which EJ refuses.

Eric shows the waiter a picture of Fiona and asks if that’s the woman who was with Brady that night. He confirms that she was and that they left together. Fiona then arrives at the bar.
