JJ and the police were at the DiMera mansion. He found out Jada was missing. Kristen came downstairs and asked if it was true that EJ got shot. She asked if he was dead. JJ told her he was alive. When she was about to go see EJ, JJ stopped her. He asked her where she was that night. Kristen said she was at Brady’s place, but she didn’t know how long. She said she and EJ spoke when she got home. After she spoke to EJ, she went to take a shower. JJ wondered why she took a shower. Kristen said she does that before she goes to bed. She didn’t like that he tried to imply that she was washing off evidence and denied trying to kill him or anyone. JJ gave her a rundown of the people she tried to kill. Kristen told him about the people who wanted to kill EJ. JJ flashed back to Gabi pulling a gun on EJ. Kristen told him to catch the shooter. JJ told her not to leave town. Jada was drinking at the Small Bar when Shawn came in. She let him know that Rafe kicked her out and told him what happened. Jada blamed herself for not figuring out Arnold sooner. Shawn told her that EJ was shot. When Jada attempted to stand up, Shawn caught her. He noticed her gun was missing and wondered where it was. Jada said she locked it in her desk and forgot to take off her holster. She said she wasn’t thinking clearly since Rafe threw her out. He told her she was too drunk to show up to work and suggested she go home and sleep it off. When Jada said she didn’t have anywhere to go, Shawn said he would take her to his place.

Leo and Gabi ran into each other at the town square. When she insulted him, he warned her a killer was on the loose. He told her someone shot EJ. A shocked Gabi asked what happened. Leo said he didn’t find out much from the police, but they didn’t think EJ would survive the shooting. Gabi thought it would have been good if EJ didn’t survive. Leo was surprised she hated EJ so much. Gabi told him why she hated EJ. Leo wondered who she thought shot EJ. Gabi said the person was her hero. Leo wanted to quote her for the paper, but she refused to let him quote her. Gabi thought people would think she shot EJ. When she and Leo were finished talking, she called the hospital to get an update on EJ. Rafe came home and flashed back to Gabi blaming EJ for everything. Javi wondered where he was. Rafe said he went to get beer. Javi said they had plenty of beer. He asked what was wrong with Rafe. Rafe denied that there was anything wrong, but Javi didn’t believe him. He told Javi that he was thinking about EJ. Rafe told Javi about Jada sleeping with Shawn. Javi was shocked but understood after what Arnold did. He said Jada was devastated and heartbroken and said Rafe should forgive her. Rafe said he didn’t know if he could and didn’t understand how Jada didn’t know it wasn’t him. Javi said no one knew. He told Rafe that he and Jada loved each other and warned him not to take it out on her. Javi told him to take his anger out on EJ to which Rafe said he already did. When Rafe said he didn’t want to talk about it, Leo came in and told them about EJ getting shot. Rafe said he put a bug in the DiMera mansion to which Leo said that was where EJ got shot. Rafe said he had to take care of something. When Rafe left, Javi and Leo wondered what was going on. Kayla told Chad that EJ was stable, but not out of the woods. She said the bullet caused a lot of internal damage but missed his heart. Kayla said he could go see EJ. Chad went to see EJ. While Chad was talking to EJ, he had a seizure. Kayla rushed in and told Chad to leave. Chad went to Cat and blamed himself for printing the article that possibly led to EJ getting shot. Cat told him he wasn’t responsible and said it was EJ’s fault. Jada told Shawn she appreciated him giving her a place to stay, but she didn’t think Rafe would like her going home with him. Shawn said it was too late to make Rafe mad. When Shawn reminded Jada that Rafe kicked her out, she agreed to stay with him. Leo and Javi talked about Rafe and Gabi possibly being shooting EJ. Gabi checked her phone to make sure EJ died. JJ showed up. She asked if he knew who shot EJ to which he said he didn’t. Rafe went to the DiMera mansion and took the wire out of the statue. Kayla told Chad that they had to put EJ in a medically induced coma to keep him from having seizures.
