Leo went to see Chad to ask him for his job back. Chad was hesitant after what happened with Kerry. Leo assured him that he wanted to write about real journalism. Chad still didn’t think it was a good idea until Leo reminded him about the story he wrote about the Hortons. His pitched worked because Chad decided to give him a shot. Leo began giving him ideas about what to write, but Chad wanted him to learn the ethics of the paper first. He assured Chad that he wouldn’t regret rehiring him. Marlena was shuffling through papers when Cat arrived for her first day. She told Cat about the hospital filing for bankruptcy. Kayla was working on something to save the hospital. Cat thought they could start a fundraiser so they could make some money. The ladies went out for lunch to discuss ideas to raise money for the hospital. Chad arrived and saw them together. Marlena invited him to eat with them so Cat could share her ideas of how to save the hospital. Javi apologized to Gabi for being late. He told her about his conversation with Jada and that he told her that Rafe cheated on her. Gabi couldn’t believe it, but Javi confirmed it. She wondered when Rafe changed to such a bad person. Gabi remembered that he cheated on Ava and Hope for Nicole and Sami respectively. Javi thought it was a blind spot, but Gabi didn’t think so. She believed something was off. Rafe felt bad about cheating before but now he’s cold about it. Gabi thought it might be from the coma he experienced. She decided to take him to the doctor whether he wanted to go or not.
Shawn found Jada crying on a bench. Jada quickly embraced Shawn and told him that Rafe cheated on her. He asked if there was an explanation for his actions. Shawn wondered if Rafe got drunk and made a mistake. Jada let him know that Rafe didn’t regret what happened. She informed him about her conversation with Javi. Shawn offered to take her home. He didn’t want to leave her while she was upset. Jada wanted to get a bat and go after Rafe. Shawn offered her a shoulder to cry on. She blamed herself for what happened because she missed the red flags. They started talking about what happened between them the night before. Jada admitted that she wanted to kiss Shawn, but she stopped because of Rafe. The feelings she had for Rafe were gone, and she wanted to kiss Shawn.

They made out again. Arnold wanted Savannah to come over so they could hook up. He heard a knock at the door and thought it was her. Stephanie was the person at the door. She wanted to talk to him about Jada. Stephanie demanded answers from him about why he was hurting Jada the way he did. He let her know that his actions weren’t her business. She cared about Jada and wanted to help. Arnold smiled and kissed her. She pulled away and kicked him. Leo surprised Javi at the office. He told Javi that he got his job back at the paper. Javi told him that he let Jada know that “Rafe” cheated on her. He wasn’t sure if he did the right thing by telling the truth. Leo assured him that “Rafe” was wrong to demand that he keep it quiet. Gabi stormed into the house and yelled at Rafe for cheating on Jada. She let him know that Javi told him what he did to Jada. Gabi was upset and wondered what happened to him. He called her a b*tch, and she was ready to kill him. Marlena got a text and let Chad and Cat alone. They talked about what to do to save the hospital.
