Leo tried to read their lips and saw that EJ wanted Gwen to handle something and Gwen talked about a delivery. Johnny said he would send Leo the footage when he was done. Jeremy and Maggie were at the town square. While they were talking, he told her he was on Chad’s side when it concerned the custody battle. Maggie said she was torn but hoped Chad was found soon. Jeremy told Maggie that he knew Titan was in danger so he was willing to help if she wanted him too. Maggie said one of the writers have been letter from a troubled fan who lived in Salem. Jeremy thought Maggie was talking about Stephanie. Maggie asked if he was the obsessed fan. Jeremy was upset that his family thought so little of him. He became upset. Maggie told him she didn’t think he was the stalker, but she had to ask. Jeremy said it felt like she didn’t have his back which made him sad because she was like a grandmother to him. He walked away from her.

Rafe and Cat talked about the things in the secret room being gone. They thought someone caught her snooping. Rafe thought her cover might have been blown and that drugging EJ was a risk she didn’t need to take. Cat said she was worried about Chad and have been putting a timeline together. She thought the texts sent from Chad to Julie weren’t from him. They thought the calls Tony made were from someone else too. When they went over the suspects, Cat realized that Rafe was focused on EJ and thought his bias was clouding his judgment. Rafe admitted to his bias. He said he knew the DiMeras chose money and power over their own family so he was putting his money on EJ. At the DiMera mansion, EJ told Gwen that someone ripped off Jada that Rolf was in the secret room. Gwen said it wasn’t her. They argued over it until EJ realized Leo was the one who did it. He said Leo was lurking around for weeks and Rita caught him in the lab months ago. Gwen said she didn’t tell Leo anything and that he didn’t know anything. EJ wanted reassurance or he would take care of Leo. Gwen wanted to know what he was going to do to Leo. EJ said it was better for her not to know. EJ called someone and told them he had an important job. When Gwen went to the front door, Leo was there. She told him that he shouldn’t be there. Leo said he had proof that she and EJ were working together. He said when he exposed their plan, she and EJ would go to jail unless she came clean with him. At the DiMera crypt, Theo had a human bone. Chad was afraid the bone was Abby’s. When Theo examined the bone, he said he didn’t think it was Abby’s since it was a large bone and Abby was small. Chad was relieved to know it wasn’t Abby. Theo said the bone was a man’s bone. He told Chad that Stefan and Dimitri were missing. Chad said it could be an enemy. While they were talking, the crypt door opened. Gwen warned Leo that he should be focused on protecting Javi from seeing his body pulled out of the Salem River. She suggested that he go away for a while and mind his business. Chad and Theo discovered another body in the crypt. It was EJ.
