Sophia told Holly that Tate went to her house to talk to her. Holly quickly walked away. Amy showed up and wondered where Tate was and what was more important than the baby. At the Kiriakis mansion, Tate went to Holly’s room and saw Doug putting on his underwear. Doug told him it wasn’t what it looked like. Tate said it looked like he was sleeping with his girlfriend. Doug reminded him that Holly wasn’t his girlfriend anymore. Tate blamed Doug for why he and Holly broke up. Doug brought up that Tate sold him out. They ended up arguing. During their argument, Doug pointed out that Tate and Holly had problems throughout their relationship. While they were talking, Doug called Tate an insecure baby which led to Tate hitting him. Holly walked in the room. Tate asked her if she slept with Doug. She said it was his fault that Doug was homeless and said he didn’t have anywhere else to go. Tate said he was there because he wanted to check on her after what happened with EJ. Holly said she knew about it. Tate ended up leaving. After Doug got dressed, Holly asked if he was okay. Tate met up with Sophia and Amy. Sophia asked if Tate was okay to which he said he was. She told him about Holly’s reaction when they ran into each other. Tate told her that Doug was in Holly’s room. When Sophia wanted to ask more questions, Tate cut her off to talk to Amy. They tried to convince Amy to consider the adoption plan since EJ was shot. Amy said she was praying for EJ. Sophia told Amy that the adoption shouldn’t be a problem since EJ was in a coma. Amy said EJ could still wake up to which Sophia said it may take years. Sophia reminded Amy that Johnny and Chanel moved out of the DiMera mansion and moved in with Paulina. Amy said she liked Paulina. Tate and Sophia continued to convince Amy that everything happening was a sign from God to go through with the adoption. Amy agreed that it could be a sign, but she wanted to talk to Johnny and Chanel to make sure EJ stayed out of the baby’s life.

JJ talked to Shawn about his concern that Gabi was involved in EJ’s shooting. He told Shawn that Gabi disappeared when EJ was shot. JJ said Gabi tried to shoot EJ before. Shawn said he didn’t think Gabi would risk losing her daughter to which JJ said she might have been willing to lose her to get rid of EJ. When Shawn suggested JJ ask Gabi if she shot EJ, JJ said that would end their relationship. Shawn thought questioning his girlfriend’s innocent wasn’t good either. He told JJ that he didn’t think Gabi shot EJ since so many people wanted to kill him. JJ agreed with him and said Kristen was on the top of the list. Shawn thought Kristen’s alibi was suspicious. Gabi showed up at the DiMera mansion and went into the living room. Kristen showed up and asked what she was doing there. She wanted Gabi to give her the key. Gabi gave her the key and said she was there on business since Kristen hasn’t been there. Kristen said she was busy. Gabi said it was crazy that someone shot EJ and that he was still alive. Kristen asked if she knew anything about EJ getting shot. Gabi was offended by the accusation. Kristen said she thought Gabi might have known something since she was dating JJ. Gabi said she didn’t know anything and asked if Kristen knew anything. Kristen said Gabi had reason to kill EJ to which Gabi said Kristen had reason to kill him too. Gabi said Kristen had more of a reason to kill him after what he did to her mother. Kristen said she didn’t own a gun to which Gabi said she could have gotten one. They continued to argue about it until Gabi left. Brady told Belle that EJ was shot and in a coma. He said Kristen told him about it. Belle didn’t know how she felt about what happened. She told him about trying to get EJ to confess to what he did and said it was a bad plan. Belle said she knew he would figure out what she was doing and secretly wanted him to figure it out. She said she wanted him and didn’t want him to go to prison. Belle said after everything EJ did, she was still worried about him. Brady understood what she was saying because of his situation with Kristen, but he was able to get over it. Belle said she wasn’t sure if she would be able to get over it. She said she wanted to hate EJ, but she couldn’t. Brady told her not to beat herself up about it because EJ was a terrible person and caring about him made her a kind one. He said he would support her and be there for her. Later on, Belle went to see EJ at the hospital. When Kristen was about to leave the mansion, Shawn and JJ showed up with a search warrant to search her room. Kristen hesitated at first but agreed to let them search her room. While they searched the room, JJ found a gun.
