She had a feeling that Marlena knew who it was. Xander told Sarah that something was up with Philip. Sarah told him to give Philip the benefit of the doubt. She said Philip might have been keeping speed since he’s co-CEO. Xander said he was tired and didn’t know how long he was going to put up with him. 

Kevin told Philip that he couldn’t get back to the lab to replace the batch because Dr. Russell came back early and noticed that the drug was gone. Philip thought it was bad but was thankful Dr. Russell didn’t want the police involved. He told him to wait around until he got the drug from him. Shawn, Steve, and Kayla tried to figure out who stole the sepsis drug. While Shawn was looking through the footage on the security camera, he didn’t find anything.
