Alex thought it was great that Xander and Philip were able to work together. Philip seemed like he was in a rush to get rid of Alex. After Alex left, Xander wondered why Philip wanted him to leave.

He told him that without Arnold or Rafe’s side of the story, EJ will get away with everything. Javi thought the story would pressure Belle to prosecute EJ. He called Rafe to get quotes for Leo. Leo thanked him, but he was worried about the DiMeras coming after him. There was a knock on the door. Javi answered the door and saw a huge bill. He was shocked to find out that Leo hadn’t paid his bills since he lost his job at Body & Soul. He didn’t have the money to pay them. Javi suggested he move in with him.
