Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Gabi found Doug and gave him a piece of her mind. He tried to stop her by apologizing for what happened. Gabi refused to let him off the hook. She called him out for betraying Arianna and Roman. Doug knew what he did. He wrote a letter for Roman and asked Gabi to give it to him. When he pulled it out the necklace came out with it. Chanel wondered if Johnny heard anything about Marlena. He didn’t hear anything yet. Susan arrived at their place. She hugged Johnny and let him know that she was there to make sure that he didn’t go to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Chanel admitted that she called Susan to help them find out who shot EJ. Johnny wasn’t sure if it was a good idea because everyone didn’t believe in psychic powers, and it’s useless in court. Chanel felt like it was a start. Susan thought they would figure it out. She knew Johnny was innocent from the beginning. Susan began to work her magic leaving Chanel and Johnny confused. Johnny thought they could hire a private investigator and not rely on his grandmother’s psychic powers. Chanel told him they were desperate, and they were out of time. Johnny finally gave in and allowed Susan to figure it out. Gwen was shocked to find out that the necklace was gone. She tried to leave when Julie showed up. Julie served her with legal papers. She let Gwen know that she was being sued. Gwen told her that she couldn’t have the necklace because it’s gone. Julie wanted to know what she meant by that. Gwen accused her of stealing the necklace and used it to cover her tracks. Julie told her that she didn’t have it and wondered who did. She stormed out of the place, and they both threatened to call the police. Gwen left her room and ran into Doug. She put it together and realized that he was the one who took the necklace. Gwen ran into Gabi at the town square. They started arguing about Gabi stealing Jake from her, and Stefan cheating on Gabi. Gabi reminded her about Dimitri cheating on her. Gwen was thankful that she got Dimitri’s money. Gabi wondered if Gwen killed Dimitri. Susan showed up while they argued. She asked Gabi if she shot her son. Susan remembered seeing that Gabi was at EJ’s place the night he was shot, and she confessed to being there. Gwen enjoyed watching them talk. Susan warned Gabi that if she was responsible for EJ’s shooting, then she would be in trouble. She stormed off. Gwen thought it was funny that Gabi was accused of the shooting when she asked her if her if she killed Dimitri.
Julie was upset when Doug arrived. She demanded to know what he wanted. He told her that he was leaving Salem, but Julie didn’t care about it. Doug pulled out the necklace, and she changed her tune. She wanted to know where he got it. He said he stole it. It belonged to Julie and not Gwen. Julie knew Gwen would go ballistic once she found out the necklace was gone. She wasn’t going to tell Gwen that Doug stole it. He apologized to her again. Doug would regret throwing the love that she gave him in her face. He was about to walk away when she asked him to put the necklace on her. Doug put the necklace on her and let her look at it. Wearing it made Julie feel closer to her mother and grandmother. Julie wanted to give him Doug’s pocket watch. He thanked her for the gift. Julie offered to wire him the rest of the money he owed the loan shark once he got settled.

Susan arrived at the townhouse to see Marlena. She offered her condolences to Marlena. They hugged each other, but Susan felt uneasy after she did it. She told Marlena that she got a weird vibe from her. Susan said that there was trouble in the body, mind and soul. Marlena wondered what trouble she meant. Belle said it was time for her to go.
