Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Holly found Doug III beat up in the park. He lied to her and told her the men who attacked him tried to mug him. Doug III tried to stop her from calling the police. Holly helped him up and wanted to take to someone who was trustworthy. Stephanie arrived at the Kiriakis mansion with headshots for Bonnie to sign. Sarah let her know that Bonnie wasn’t home. They ended up talking about their men working together. Stephanie hoped the arrangement worked out for Xander and Philip. Sarah realized that Victor’s letter sealed the deal. She thought it was good that they were working together because they could help each other. Holly brought Doug III to the mansion so Sarah could help him. Sarah examined him. Holly lied about them calling the police and that they didn’t go to the hospital because he didn’t have insurance. Sarah wanted to help him, but she didn’t have anesthesia. He didn’t care about that. Xander and Philip got into an argument while they were at Titan. After their argument, Xander told Philip he planned to go after DiMera Enterprises. He wasn’t above bribing their board members. Philip didn’t want to work that way anymore. Xander thought Victor would approve of the plan, but Philip didn’t want to deal with Kristen. Stephanie was almost killed the last time Philip went after the DiMeras. Since Xander needed Philip to agree to it, he shut down the idea.
Brady blamed Kristen for Rachel sending Ava the threatening texts. Kristen thought it was a cry for help. They ended up arguing over Rachel. Brady told her that Rachel was a mess because of both of them. Kristen finally agreed with him. Brady felt like Rachel needed them to get along. He was afraid that Rachel could become a nightmare when she got older. Brady suggested that Rachel get therapy, but Kristen didn’t want that for her. He thought things would get worse for her if they didn’t do something about it now. She finally agreed to let her go to therapy. Tate told Sophia about Holly getting upset about the baby. He also told her that her mother went to his father insisting they get married. Brady and Tate weren’t down for the idea but agreed to take care of Sophia and the baby. Tate wondered if Sophia thought about adoption. Sophia felt like her mother would want to raise the baby herself if she could. Her mother wouldn’t allow her to give the baby to strangers. Sophia understood that her mother didn’t want her to give the baby up for adoption. Tate understood too, but he didn’t think they were ready to be parents. She eventually agreed that adoption might be the best choice. Sophia planned to talk about it with her parents. She asked him to go with her to her doctors’ appointment. Tate agreed to go, but he wished he could do more for her. She was grateful for what he did for her because she couldn’t get through that without him. After Sophia left, Tate called Holly. Holly ignored the call. She asked Doug III why he didn’t call the police about the mugging. Xander arrived at the Kiriakis mansion and told Sarah about what happened with Philip. Philip called Kate and told her about his day with Xander. He assured her that no one would find out that Victor’s letter was a forgery. He didn’t realize that Stephanie was listening at the door. She was shocked by what she heard.
