He said she was there to get information, not set up schemes. Rafe warned her that they were done if she went rogue one more time. Cat said it wouldn’t happen again. They talked about stopping the drug from hitting the black market. Rafe said they needed to get a sample. They couldn’t let it get in the wrong hands. Before Cat left, Rafe told her to keep things professional with EJ. When Cat told Rafe that EJ wanted her to get hypnotized, Rafe was okay with it. He said they had to let Marlena know what she told EJ. EJ asked Theo about Lexie and how she was doing. Theo said Lexie was proud of him for being CEO of DiMera. EJ told Theo that Johnny had to step down because of Chanel. While he was talking, he told Theo that Chanel had cancer. He said he thought Theo knew. Before Theo was about to leave, EJ asked Theo to be his second-in-command while Johnny takes a leave. Theo agreed to let him do it. Marlena, Abe, and Lexie met for breakfast.
