Recap written by Christine

Sally and Victoria were at Society. Victoria hoped Sally didn’t take it personally, but she wasn’t in the mood for conversation. Sally understood that Victoria would need time to unwind after suffering one blow after another. Sally admired Victoria’s tenacity and found her strength and resilience inspiring. Victoria appreciated the compliment, and she didn’t expect it. She imagined Sally and Adam were disappointed that she and Adam lost their temporary titles when Victoria took over the reigns at Newman again. Sally said she was satisfied with being COO of Newman Media, and she and Adam were excited about their plans going forward. Victoria recalled Adam saying something similar earlier. Sally said the only one who lost was Ashland.

Victoria said Ashland was several hundreds of millions of dollars richer, thanks to Adam. Sally doubted the money made him any happier, since he gave half of it away. Victoria asked how Sally knew about that. Sally explained that she overheard Ashland talking to Nick. After Ashland made the transfer, he didn’t look happy. Sally said Ashland had a brief conversation with Adam afterward, and it was obvious to her that Ashland was broken up over losing Victoria. Victoria said that either Sally misread the situation, or Ashland was playing her and Adam, the way Billy did when he pretended to be falling apart. Sally said Ashland couldn’t fool her. Victoria tensed. “Not that I’m a better judge of character than you,” Sally hastily added. Sally said she’d been where Ashland was, so she could read him. Victoria wanted to hear more, so she invited Sally to sit.

Sally revealed that she too, pretended to be terminally ill to win someone’s love. Victoria didn’t realize there were two people on the planet who could stoop so low. Victoria understood why Adam liked Sally so much – they were two of a kind. Sally knew that wasn’t a compliment but she decided to take it as one. Victoria asked if Sally scammed some poor man into marriage. Sally said it didn’t get that far, and now Wyatt was so hurt, he cut her out of his life completely, just like Victoria was doing with Ashland. Sally knew Ashland’s pain and shame were real, because she’d been there. She never had the option of paying half a billion dollars for redemption, but if she did, she would’ve, because that was how horrible it felt to know you hit rock bottom and hurt the one person you loved more than anything. Victoria looked uncomfortable. Sally said she kind of felt sorry for Ashland.

Victoria said Sally’s sympathy was misplaced, and she was projecting. Victoria said Sally was trying to hold onto someone she loved, while Ashland was just using Victoria to get what he really wanted, which was full control of Newman Locke. Sally said Ashland lost all hope of gaining that, and he was still here, so he may have realized there was something more important than that. Victoria said Ashland hated to lose, and he enjoyed manipulating people, so she didn’t care what his intentions were. Sally said Victoria had every right to feel that way. Sally was at the wedding, and she saw Ashland make this amazing declaration of love, so it was hard for her to believe at least some of that wasn’t genuine. She said it didn’t matter though, because it was too late. She guessed Ashland should move on, like she did, and try to do better with the next woman in his life. Victoria agreed. Sally knew what she had with Adam was healthy and strong because she learned from her mistakes. Sally didn’t think it was fair that some other woman would benefit from all the time Victoria spent teaching Ashland how to be another man. She said Ashland would probably be haunted by the way he treated Victoria for the rest of his life, but he had no one to blame but himself. Sally hoped things got better for Victoria, and she left.

Victor and Michael met at The Grand Phoenix. Michael wanted to make sure Victor knew Diane was back. Victor wanted Diane to leave, and he said he was going to make sure she knew that everyone in the town wasn’t going to let bygones be bygones. Victor wanted to talk business, but Michael shifted gears and said Lauren had stepped up her efforts to get him to quit his job. “What the hell does this have to do with your wife? You’re my lawyer. Do I need to hire someone else?,” Victor said. Michael said no, so Victor changed the subject back to business. Victor said Ashland was still in town, and Victor wanted Michael to get rid of that SOB, permanently.

Michael wanted to know exactly what Victor had in mind. Victor assured Michael that his life wouldn’t be at risk. Victor wouldn’t stand for Ashland making Victoria’s life hell. Michael asked if Ashland did anything they could take to a judge. Victor said Ashland was just hovering and trying to impress Victoria with his undying love. Michael asked if Ashland was sincere. Victor’s point was that Ashland was becoming frustrated – Victoria was being cold to Ashland, and once he realized his tactics weren’t working, he gave half of his buyout to New Hope in Rey’s name. Victor said that of course Ashland’s tactics weren’t working.

Victor said Victoria had finally wised up, and she knew she couldn’t trust a word that came out of that SOB’s mouth. Michael knew that must be painful for Victoria. He wondered if Victoria was tempted to believe her love redeemed Ashland. Victor said no – Ashland fooled Victoria once, but he wouldn’t fool her again. Ashland wasn’t used to losing. Victor was worried about what Ashland would do in the face of Victoria’s continual rejection. Victor wanted to come up with a plan to protect Victoria.

Nikki went to Crimson Lights, and Ashland was there. She asked if he was lying in wait, hoping Victoria would come by again. He assumed Victoria told her that they spoke earlier about his donation to New Hope. He was gratified that Victoria didn’t object. Nikki thought Ashland also found it gratifying to see how much it hurt Victoria to see him. He said he didn’t want to hurt Victoria – every move he was making now was to ease her pain. Nikki said all Ashland did was lie. She told him that if he loved Victoria, he should leave her alone.

Ashland followed Nikki over to the condiment bar to continue the conversation. He didn’t want to upset her, but he couldn’t leave things the way they just did. He hated to think she was telling Victoria he never cared for her, because nothing could be further from the truth. Nikki was tired of hearing Ashland saying this. He admitted it was cruel to deceive Victoria, but he said he eventually realized what a treasure his wife was. He was trying to help Victoria understand that and maybe win her forgiveness. Nikki thought that would be even more cruel than what Ashland had already done. She said he was toxic, a narcissist incapable of putting people’s needs ahead of his own. She thought everything was a game to him – just another move on a chessboard. Her daughter deserved better. Victoria walked in and asked what was going on.

Nikki said she was telling Ashland what she thought of him and how selfish he was to keep inflicting himself on Victoria. Ashland apologized and said he should’ve realized that a mother as protective as Nikki wouldn’t want to her his apology, no matter how heartfelt. Nikki scoffed. Victoria said it wasn’t worth getting into it with Ashland. She didn’t care what Ashland did or where he went. Victoria continued to the counter to place an order. Nikki said she didn’t share her daughter’s indifference. Nikki said she and Victor didn’t go after Ashland before because it had been more important to get Victoria out of the marriage, but now they’d done that. Nikki said that if Ashland didn’t stay away from Victoria, Nikki and Victor would come up with their own way of solving the problem.

Victoria and Nikki went back to work. Victoria was tired, and Nikki suggested they go away to a European spa. Victoria thought Nikki wanted to get her away from Ashland. “Ashland who?,” Nikki replied. Victoria said they had too much to do right now, like officially changing the name of the company etc. Nikki understood that, but she thought Victoria needed a break, since she hadn’t had any downtime since she found out what Ashland was up to. Victoria appreciated the concern, but she wasn’t on the verge of a nervous breakdown – she was going to get through this.

Sally noticed Ashland drowning his sorrows at the Society bar. She went over and told him that Victoria had been sitting on that same stool earlier and in that same mood, only she’d hidden it a little better. Ashland asked if Sally found it entertaining. She said she found it sad – two people who missed each other – one too proud to admit it and one too proud to keep up the fight. He asked why she cared. She said she was a sucker for romance. She left. He looked pensive.

At the cottage, Sharon made some phone calls regarding deliveries for the wedding. Faith came home with the dry cleaning, and she tried to keep Sharon from seeing it. Sharon saw what Faith was hiding – a shirt Sharon had purchased for Rey when they honeymooned in Miami. Faith was sorry. She knew Sharon wanted to focus on the wedding today. When Sharon said that, she didn’t mean she didn’t want to talk about Rey at all. Rey was on Sharon’s mind all the time. That was true for Faith, too. According to Faith, the dry cleaner mentioned that Rey never picked up the shirt, and she’d asked Faith to say hi to him for her. Faith tearfully stated that she didn’t know what to say when she realized the woman hadn’t heard Rey died. It didn’t seem real. Every time the door opened, Faith thought Rey would be coming home. Sharon felt like that too. Faith said Rey had been there for them through all the scariest moments – like Sharon’s cancer, Faith’s transplant and Mariah’s kidnapping, and now that they were okay, he didn’t get to be here for it. It was so messed up. Faith and Sharon hugged.

Faith apologized because she’d been trying to stay positive around Sharon. Sharon didn’t want Faith to hide her feelings. It helped Sharon that people saw how special Rey was and they missed him too. Sharon mentioned that an anonymous benefactor made a large donation in Rey’s name to New Hope. The money would go to provide affordable housing and to fund things for at risk kids – causes that were important to Rey. Sharon said it was a beautiful way to make sure Rey’s kindness and compassion were never forgotten.

Tessa and Mariah were at home. It was still the day before the wedding. Mariah was on edge, expecting something to go wrong. Tessa brightly said she’d been the worrywart earlier, and now they’d switched places. Mariah asked how Tessa stopped worrying. Tessa just decided to be optimistic. That made Mariah even more worried that things would be jinxed. Tessa said that the wedding coming together had nothing to do with luck and everything to do with Mariah’s family coming through for them. Mariah said that her mom needed something happy and joyous in her life right now. Tessa was glad her and Mariah’s love could give Sharon that. There was a knock on the door, and Mariah worried there was something about to go wrong. It was Crystal, here to surprise her sister. Tessa and Crystal hugged.

If Tessa had known Crystal was flying in tonight, she would’ve met her at the airport with balloons and a maid of honor tiara. Crystal knew Tessa would be frantic with all that last minute stuff, so she found her own ride. Mariah and Crystal hugged, and Mariah commented that Crystal looked confident and strong, like a whole new person. Crystal said she’d grown up a lot in the time she was gone. She missed Tessa like crazy. Crystal was glad she got to be here for the big day. Tessa said that it was all Rey’s doing. Crystal asked how Sharon was. Tessa and Mariah talked while Crystal was in the shower. Mariah was going over to the cottage the night before the wedding. They were gleeful because the next time they saw each other, they’d be walking down the aisle. They kissed.

Faith loved the gift bags Sharon made, and she said she saw where Noah got his artistic talents. Sharon said they weren’t perfect. Faith thought that was fine because they were handmade, not mass produced. Faith likened the bags to Tessa and Mariah’s relationship – they accepted each other as they were and didn’t hide their flaws. Mariah came to the cottage for the sleepover. Sharon asked if Mariah was superstitious that it’d be bad luck to see her bride before the ceremony. Mariah said maybe a little, but it was mainly that she and Tessa liked some of the old traditions. Mariah mentioned that Crystal was here – Rey gave them an incredible gift. Sharon said he was still there with them.

Faith asked what Mariah was looking forward to most tomorrow. Mariah was most looking forward to marrying the love of her life. Faith was looking forward to dancing. Sharon mentioned that Faith would have to be in line for the bouquet toss. Faith said she wasn’t going to go nuts trying to catch it because she didn’t want to freak Moses out. Sharon was looking forward to every part of the day. She’d missed out on so many important moments in Mariah’s life, and she wanted to soak this up.

Later, Sharon was downstairs alone twisting her wedding ring. Mariah came downstairs for some tea to help her sleep. Mariah said for so long she was watching people pairing up, starting families and building futures. That was all she wanted too, but she was afraid it would pass her by. Mariah apologized for her insensitivity – saying that when Sharon just lost the person she thought she’d spend the rest of her life with. Sharon said that no part of Mariah’s happiness hurt her. Sharon thought that when Mariah had kids, she’d understand. Sharon thought the love Mariah found with Tessa was amazing. It was everything Sharon wanted for Mariah, and she didn’t want her to feel guilty even for a second. They hugged, and Sharon smiled as she held her daughter and looked over her shoulder at the wedding photo of her and Rey.

Back at the apartment, Crystal looked at the “stunning” portrait Noah painted of Mariah and Tessa. Crystal said that Noah must be over how this all started. Tessa said it was awkward at first, but they moved on. Crystal asked how the relationship between Tessa and Sharon was now. Crystal recalled that Sharon had issues with Tessa. Tessa admitted Sharon had good reason to, but they’d moved on and grown close. Tessa said she and Sharon had to lean on each other when Mariah went missing, and Rey was so supportive. Crystal couldn’t believe she was finally out from under those charges, thanks to Rey, someone she never even met. Things were better than okay in Canada, but she’d gotten used to feeling like she’d never be safe. Now she could go wherever she wanted. She wished she had the chance to thank Rey. Tessa said Crystal would’ve loved Rey. Crystal thought the whole family sounded great, and now Tessa would be one of them.

Tessa thought it was pretty wild that she was about to join this big boisterous loving family. Especially after the way she and Crystal grew up – in a chaotic and unpredictable home. Tessa had been thinking a lot about it because she and Mariah were going to have kids. Tessa wondered if that was crazy. Crystal said Tessa had the biggest heart of anyone she knew, and she’d practically raised Crystal. Tessa said it was Mariah’s idea. It took awhile, then Tessa realized adoption was the best thing for them. Crystal thought it would be perfect for Tessa to give a loving home to a kid in a bad situation and save them from growing up the way she and Tessa did. Tessa said she and Mariah both had bad childhoods, and Mariah’s was even worse – she grew up in a literal cult.

Tessa said she and Mariah decided they needed to know they had what it took to be good spouses and parents. Crystal asked what made the difference. Tessa said she and Mariah just decided they weren’t going to let this relationship fail – they almost did many times, but they always found a way to come back to each other and make things right. Crystal thought Tessa was talking about trust. Crystal had never experienced that. Tessa said if it happened for her, it could definitely happen for Crystal. Crystal though they were getting way too deep, when tonight was supposed to be about fun. Crystal decided to do Tessa’s hair.

Update written by Joseph

Lani goes to the police station with a worried look and thinks back to shooting TR. Lani tells herself that she was just trying to wound him but wonders why he’s dead then. Chanel arrives and tells Lani that she just heard Eli is awake, so she asks if he’s okay. Lani confirms that he is. Chanel says she’s so happy for her. Lani calls it the best thing ever. Chanel adds that she also heard about TR and asks if it’s true that Paulina really shot him dead.

Kayla and Steve sit together at home. Kayla talks about everything going on in town and says she’s trying to get her head around Lani’s birth father shooting her husband and then Lani’s mother shot her birth father. Steve comments that Paulina confessed to killing TR but she seems more like a woman who uses words not bullets. Steve adds that he doesn’t know how Paulina could’ve got her hands on what looked like a police issued weapon.

At the hospital, Shawn finishes a call and tells Ben that there’s been no sign of Allie or the car she was driving. Ben tells them that they better be off of the DiMera Crypt since Tony and Anna found the pacifier there hours ago which means Allie had his baby there and God only knows where she is now.

Ciara wakes up in her hospital bed and cries for her baby Bo. Ciara wonders where he is and what is happening to him right now.

Devil Allie holds baby Bo in the cemetery and declares that it’s Friday the 13th, a fitting day to fulfill her plans for him. Bo starts to cry. The Devil tells him not to cry as it will all be over soon.

Susan sits with Johnny in the living room of the DiMera Mansion. Susan looks at a photo of Johnny and Allie, saying she loves the picture of them and how when they were little, they used to be best friends. Susan encourages Johnny to think back to that time and try to get that connection again. Susan has Johnny look at the picture for help and urges him to try one more time. Susan talks about Johnny and Allie’s childhood. Susan declares that they need to find Allie before the Devil makes her do something that she’ll never come back from. Susan has Johnny close his eyes and says they are sending their love and energy to Allie.

The Devil calls baby Bo a handful and says he’s going to need help dealing with him and he has just the person in mind. The Devil calls upon Allie’s rapist, Charlie Dale to raise from the depths of Hell.

Johnny tells Susan that he’s concentrating as hard as he can. Susan says she feels something and then they both get a jolt, causing the photo of Johnny and Allie to drop. Susan says she fears no evil. Johnny asks what that was. Susan says they almost reached Allie but The Devil broke the connection. Susan picks up the photo, now with a cracked frame, and asks who else would have done this.

Charlie rises from his grave and comments on Allie. The Devil clarifies that he’s not Allie, he’s just taking control of her body. Charlie calls it a pretty good choice. The Devil says he did not summon him to talk about his time on Earth but he’s been chosen by him. The Devil talks about falling from grace out of Heaven and how Charlie also knows what it means to be passed over which makes him perfect for his purposes. The Devil orders Charlie to bow before him and swear his allegiance so he knows that he’s worthy to receive his instruction. Charlie then kneels and asks what he desires of him.

Ciara prays to her father, Bo, and cries that she needs his help right now. Ciara prays for Bo to bring her baby back to her. Evan/Christian then enters the room, dressed in hospital scrubs and says they meet again.

Ben tells Shawn that they have to have some idea where Allie is. Shawn insists that they found nothing in the DiMera Crypt or mansion and they set roadblocks around it, so not even the Devil will be able to travel with a newborn. Ben comments that the Devil seems to be damn good at getting help whenever he needs it, plus Evan is still on the loose…

Evan tells Ciara that he heard her prayer to Bo but he doesn’t think he’s coming for her this time. Ciara warns that he has 5 seconds to get out or she will start screaming. Evan grabs a scalpel and threatens to fix it so she and her dad can be together forever if she does that.

Lani tells Chanel that she can’t speak about TR since it’s an open case but confirms that Paulina was arrested. Chanel brings up hearing that TR shot Eli and not the drug dealer which Lani also confirms. Chanel talks about Paulina thinking TR had changed. Lani says it makes her sick to think about that man going through her children. Lani says TR only took care of himself and didn’t change one bit as he lied to everyone. Lani complains that everything out of his mouth was a lie and he wasn’t the only one. Chanel asks who else was lying.

Kayla questions if Steve thinks Paulina is lying about who killed TR and if it could’ve been a policeman. Tripp comes home and greets them. Kayla offers to make him dinner. Tripp says he’s okay. They insist but Tripp says he’s good. Tripp asks if there’s any news on Ben and Ciara’s baby but Steve says no.

Shawn assures Ben that the baby is his nephew, so he’s not going to rest until they get him back. Shawn decides to call Rafe to find out what he knows. Ben prays there is something so he can give Ciara some good news when she wakes up since this is killing her…

Ciara asks Evan where her baby is. Evan says he knows what it’s like not to know where his son is and blames Ciara. Ciara argues that Evan killed his baby’s mother and let Ben take the fall for it. Evan complains that Ciara rode to his rescue and now they are living the dream while he rots away in a cell. Ciara argues that Ben has changed while Evan hasn’t. Evan remarks that the baby is better off where he is instead of having Ben as a father. Ciara demands to know where her baby is. Evan tells her not to worry since she’s the one lying helpless here. Ciara warns him not to be so sure about that. Ciara talks about being right that they didn’t kill Ben and brings up how many times Evan has tried to kill them and failed. Evan argues that God was on their side in the past but he has his own backup now as The Devil is on his team so he thinks they are pretty evenly matched. Ciara tries to run but Evan grabs a hold of her and starts choking her.

Marlena goes to the DiMera Mansion which excites Susan. Marlena asks if they have heard anything about Allie and the baby. Susan says they got a message from the Devil which Marlena questions. Johnny explains that they were trying to make a connection with Allie but the picture dropped out of their hands. Susan thinks it was The Devil saying this is war and now God has sent them a weapon. Susan tells Marlena that there is no one she’d rather have on her side. Susan joins hands with Johnny and Marlena, planning to drum up all the love for Allie so they can save her soul. Johnny argues that they already tried. Marlena decides they will try again since she is one more person that really loves Allie.

The Devil talks to Charlie about fighting off exorcists, loved ones, and the internal struggles of tortured souls. The Devil declares now it’s time to rest so the new baby will be his vessel for his entire lifetime as he knows no other touch but his and doesn’t have the bonds of love to restrain him. The Devil plans to take residence in the baby and when he’s a grown man, he will make Hell on Earth through him. Charlie asks what he can do to assist him. The Devil tells Charlie that his chance to be a father was taken from him, so he’s giving him the opportunity to raise another child. The Devil says when the ritual is done, Charlie will take the child and keep him as his own.

Susan tries to get through to Allie and asks God to break the Devil’s hold on her spirit. The electricity in the mansion starts to flicker while the wind picks up outside. Johnny says he can feel Allie but can’t tell where she is. Johnny wonders if Allie is gone as the lights go out, but Allie’s voice says that she is there.

Steve assures Tripp that the entire police department is looking for Allie but so far there is no trace of her. Tripp talks about Henry missing her so much. Tripp remarks that Allie doesn’t care what happens to him. Kayla says that’s not true. Tripp admits he shouldn’t talk about her like that. Steve asks Tripp how he is doing.

Johnny asks if they all heard Allie’s voice. Susan confirms that they did and tells Marlena to talk to her. Marlena tries to speak through to Allie, saying they are here and can hear her. Allie calls out to Marlena and says the Devil is too strong. Marlena says they will help fight him but they have to know where she is. Allie mentions the Devil having Ben and Ciara’s baby. Johnny asks where she is now. Allie reveals that she is at Charlie’s grave at the cemetery and tells them to come before it’s too late.

The Devil places baby Bo on a pentagram symbol and lights candles all around it. The Devil orders Charlie to not let mortals disturb the ritual and if they do appear, this is the perfect place to bury them.

Evan continues choking Ciara until Ben bursts in and grabs Evan. Evan and Ben start to fight and punch each other.

The Devil summons all forces of evil to let the transference begin.

Chanel asks Lani who else is lying. Lani asks if she said that and claims she’s just running on fumes so anything could come out of her mouth right now. Chanel apologizes for pumping her for information. Lani says it’s fine since Paulina is her mother too and she deserves to know. Lani thinks back to Paulina telling her that she knows what she’s doing in taking the fall. Chanel then asks Lani what she deserves to know. Lani brings up Beth, who swore that TR didn’t use drugs or hit her, and wonders if he threatened her to keep her quiet. Lani recalls Beth saying she had something to tell her but she seemed scared. Chanel wishes Beth told her, then Paulina wouldn’t be in this mess.

Tripp doesn’t know what to say as he didn’t keep it a secret that he loved and trusted Allie, but she couldn’t tell him about how she felt about Chanel and that she cheated on him. Kayla knows how much that hurt him when he found out. Tripp says he’s fine and dealing with it. Steve asks if he’s sure. Steve knows Tripp is tough but encourages that he doesn’t have to keep it inside and pretend it’s not bothering him. Steve advises Tripp to talk to them because he won’t feel better until he does.

Johnny declares that he has to get to the cemetery. Marlena says not by himself. Johnny argues that Allie always talks about how tough she is, but they heard how scared she is, so she needs help. Johnny shouts that she is his sister and he’s going to get her. Susan warns him that the Devil could get him again. Johnny doesn’t care but Marlena says they do. Johnny refuses to let the Devil keep Allie or hurt the baby. Johnny tells them to call Ben and the cops and tell them where to go as he rushes out of the mansion.

Evan and Ben continue fighting. Ben knocks Evan down and demands to know where his kid is. Evan fights back and grabs the scalpel as he holds it to Ben’s throat. Evan argues that God doesn’t dirty his hands with guys like them as they are both going to Hell but he’s going to make sure he sends Ben there first.

The Devil continues the ritual and declares that he takes baby Bo’s uncorrupted soul as his own.

Evan tells Ben to say hi to Jordan for him. Ciara recovers and knocks out Evan by hitting him from behind with a hospital tray. Ciara and Ben then embrace.

Charlie asks The Devil if the ritual is done. The Devil declares that he is leaving this form. Charlie asks what he’s supposed to do with Allie once he leaves her body. The Devil responds that he has no use for Allie anymore, so he can do what he wants. Johnny then arrives and declares he’s not going to lay a finger on her.

Tripp talks about growing up feeling like he didn’t belong anywhere until Steve and Kayla found him and took him in, otherwise he doesn’t know who he would be now. Tripp knows he put them through hell for awhile but here they are. Tripp thought he would have what Steve and Kayla have as he saw him and Allie raising Henry together and having their own kids but then right after he asked Allie to marry him, Johnny told him about her and Chanel. Steve reminds Tripp that it wasn’t Johnny, it was The Devil’s work. Tripp asks why it matters since it was the truth. Tripp knows what Allie must be going through but he wishes she would’ve been honest with him. Tripp talks about taking care of her after what Charlie did to her and she knew how he felt about her and Henry. Tripp wonders why Allie couldn’t just level with him or else he wouldn’t have made all those plans. Tripp thought it would be them against the world and that nobody could ever hurt Allie again.

Johnny tries to charge the Devil but he uses his powers to force him back, saying he’s not welcome in the circle and he’s not happy with all of Johnny’s attempts to interfere with his plans. Johnny says that’s too bad. The Devil warns that he’s playing with fire. Johnny says he underestimates the love between he and his sister and that he doesn’t get his family. Johnny remarks that his two grandmas could take him on which the Devil laughs at. Johnny tries to get through to Allie and urges her to fight. The Devil tells Charlie that he knows what to do with this resistance. Charlie approaches Johnny and says that he does. Johnny recognizes Charlie’s picture as the pig who raped his sister. Johnny declares that he wanted to kill him when he found out and now he’s finally got his chance.

Shawn enters Ciara’s hospital room and arrests Evan. Ciara assure they are okay. Ben says they will be when Evan tells them where to find their baby. Evan laughs at them thinking they can stop the Devil. Ben points out that he stopped Evan. Evan says they are too late as by now, the Devil is the proud owner of their baby’s soul.

Marlena calls Ben and leaves a message to call her as it’s urgent. Marlena wonders if they should go help Johnny but Susan doesn’t know what help they would be. Susan declares that this is Johnny’s fight so they should let him and the police take on The Devil.

Evan declares that The Devil is not going to kill their son, he’s going to be his son. Evan announces that once the Devil becomes one with baby Bo, he’ll be unstoppable as he will be raised from within on the guy that wrote the book on wickedness. Evan argues that they fixed it so that he couldn’t see his kid while now they will have ringside seats to their son making the whole world miserable. Ben screams at him, asking where his baby is. Shawn argues that Evan will say anything right now as he holds Ben back. Evan says all he knows is the time, but not the place. Evan reveals that the Ritual of Transference is happening right now. Shawn says he’s taking Evan to the police station but urges them not to give up hope as they are going to find baby Bo. Shawn takes Evan away as Ben hugs Ciara while she cries.

Chanel wants to see Paulina but Lani says she’s going through the booking process right now and can’t have visitors for awhile, so maybe tomorrow. Chanel cries that she can’t do a damn thing to help the people she cares about, especially when they are in big trouble. Lani guesses she’s talking about Allie as she heard she ran off with Ciara’s baby. Chanel doesn’t even know who Allie is anymore. Lani acknowledges that Chanel has been through a lot too. Chanel remarks that Johnny and Allie did a number on her but guesses that now that she knows it wasn’t them doing it all, it helps her a little. Lani says she has to get back to Eli at the hospital and invites Chanel to come with her which she accepts. Chanel calls it nice to have a sister as they exit the station together.

Tripp tells Steve and Kayla that no matter how he feels about Allie, he doesn’t want anything bad to happen to her. Steve notes that they never had a chance to straighten things out. Tripp doesn’t think things will ever get straightened out. Kayla suggests they might turn out to be friends but Tripp is unsure of that. Kayla wonders what would’ve happened with them if the Devil hadn’t played with their lives. Steve points out that Chanel was a happily married woman and made her choice which Allie knew. Kayla adds that it maybe allowed Allie to fully commit to Tripp. Tripp finds it hard to think of what might have been since he and Chanel are friends now which he never saw happening. Kayla encourages that people and feelings change. Tripp mentions that he was telling Chanel that maybe it gotten too much for Allie. Steve brings up all that Allie has been through while Kayla notes that she had a rapist’s baby. Tripp says that Allie’s life went sour when she met Charlie, while he thought he would make things right for her again. Tripp questions why this had to happen to her. Steve says he doesn’t know. Kayla thinks part of Tripp still loves Allie and wants to help her. Tripp worries that Allie is in a place now where nothing he does will make a difference.

Ben gets his phone and sees Marlena called six times so she must know something. Ben calls Marlena back and asks her what’s going on. Marlena reveals that they found Allie heading for the cemetery but she doesn’t know for sure about the baby. Ben thanks her and hangs up. Ciara tells Ben that he’s not going without her. Ben reminds her that she just had a baby. Ciara declares that she’s going to be there when they save him and Allie. Ciara tells Ben to help her find her clothes.

Charlie grabs Johnny and says he’s not getting away as he had a lot of time to work out in Hell. Charlie then rams Johnny’s head in to a statue and knocks him out. Charlie asks the Devil if he should finish him off now.

Shawn brings Evan to the police station and says the van to prison is on it’s way. Evan says he will sit there and think about Shawn, Ben, Ciara, their families, and the whole town as they look on helplessly as his nephew and the rest of the world go straight to Hell.

Young & The Restless Update

Y&R logo

Recap written by Christine

Nick gave Sharon a ride home from the airport, and she got a big hug from Faith. Sharon was in good spirits after her trip to Miami for Rey’s memorial. Faith wished she’d gone with Sharon, but Sharon said that it was the right decision to go alone. Sharon would tell Faith all about the memorial later, but now she wanted to talk about the wedding, which was tomorrow. Faith and Nick exchanged a look. Sharon assured them that she was okay, and she said they had to turn their attention to the wedding. Nick wanted to talk to Sharon alone, so Faith went upstairs.

Sharon was bowled over when Nick told her that someone wanted to donate 250 million dollars to New Hope in Rey’s name. She asked who the donor was, and Nick said it was Ashland. He assured her the donation would be anonymous. He’d been struggling with this. He couldn’t stand that creep, and he knew Ashland was only doing it to get Victoria’s forgiveness. “Just take the money, Nick” Sharon quickly urged. She knew he hated Ashland, and she did too, but Rey would want to see something bad turned into something good. She thought this was poetic justice.

Mariah and Tessa were at home, and they were looking forward to their big day. They went through a mental checklist – everything was all set. Mariah said she had to practice saying their vows without dissolving into tears. Mariah panicked because she never confirmed with Kyle that he’d officiate the wedding. Tessa was sure Devon would do it. Mariah loved Devon, but she had her heart set on Kyle. Noah showed up, and then they all left for the Top of the Tower to see how he’d set things up for the wedding. Mariah, Tessa and Noah returned to the apartment. The couple was very impressed with what Noah had done to Top of the Tower. They said it Noah asked if they didn’t trust him to make something special. Mariah said of course they did, but this was beyond. Tessa asked how they could ever thank Noah. Noah joked that their undying gratitude was more than enough.

Kyle showed up wanting to talk, so Tessa and Noah went downstairs to Crimson Lights. Mariah knew Kyle had a lot on his plate, but she pleaded with him not to say he was going to disappoint her. He’d planned to go to Milan tonight. He really wanted to get back to Summer and talk to her about Diane. He’d been so distracted, he forgot about the wedding until he started packing. Mariah thought Kyle would miss the ceremony, and she was disappointed, but she understood. Kyle said he talked to Summer, and she convinced him to stay for the wedding. She’d cleared her schedule, and she was flying to Genoa City to support him with his mom. Excited, Mariah said that this meant Summer was coming to the wedding and that Kyle could officiate it.

Kyle wasn’t thinking clearly right now, so he wasn’t sure he was in the right head space to conduct a wedding ceremony. He was worried he’d mess up. Mariah appreciated Kyle’s candor. She said he could never do anything to disappoint her. He said he’d never intentionally do that, but… Mariah said no buts. She thought that tomorrow would be a perfect wait to clear his head of some of the turmoil he was in. she said he’d be launching them into this amazing journey of, bonding, family, motherhood… She apologized for saying motherhood, but he didn’t mind. He thought Mariah and Tessa would make amazing moms. She said that none of this would be possible without him. She’d never forget what he did for them – pushing them into that first date. She said it would be like the magical completion of the circle, and magic was way too rare to say no to. Kyle agreed to do it. He was honored to be asked, and he didn’t want the fact that he’d had to be pushed into it to make it seem like he wasn’t thrilled to be involved. He promised he’d get ordained and be ready for tomorrow. She said it would just be a few clicks on the internet, and they had a script for him. He said he might want to say a few words too, and she was fine with that. She added that she had his back while he was dealing with his mom.

Downstairs, Tessa wondered if Mariah would be able to get Kyle to officiate. Tessa was going to have her sister at the wedding, and she wanted Mariah to have everything she wanted. Noah commented on how Tessa and Mariah always wanted the best for each other. Tessa first knew she was falling in love when she wanted something for someone else more than she wanted anything for herself. He hoped this was the most extraordinary wedding ever. She said the Top of the Tower looked magical. She was glad they got past the awkwardness. He was glad too, and he gave her credit for being so open and honest with him and Mariah. He’d always love Tessa as a friend and as the woman who made his sister so happy. She said his friendship meant so much to her, and soon they’d be family.

Later, Sharon, Tessa, Faith and Noah came upstairs. Kyle was already gone. Everyone was concerned because Sharon was up and about instead of resting. She wanted them to stop worrying about her. She wondered if it’d help if she told them about Rey’s service. She said it was lovely, and it helped to have that time with Celeste, Lola, Arturo and their extended family and friends. Everyone at the Miami service understood why Sharon came alone, and they all had nice things to say about Rey. Mariah asked how Lola was. She was excited about the wedding and sorry she couldn’t be there. Sharon said no more sorrys and sadness – all that mattered was pulling off the perfect wedding for their beautiful brides – Rey would want nothing less. Tessa was excited when Mariah said Kyle would officiate. Faith suggested they give Sharon a job to do. They put her on gift bag assembly, and she was happy to do it. Sharon brought a basket of things for Tessa and Mariah to use to pamper themselves – face masks, tea, nail polish etc. they both appreciated it. Sharon wanted the brides-to-be to relax and accept that everything would be taken care of. The guests left to take care of the last minute issues. Mariah and Tessa marveled that tomorrow they’d be bonding their lives together forever.

Victoria approached Ashland at Crimson Lights. She said Nick told her about his offer to donate half his buyout to New Hope to be used for work done in Rey’s name. He was meeting with Nick later, to hear his decision, and he hoped Nick would take the money. Victoria agreed – that money could do a lot of good in the right hands. It pained him that she no longer thought of his hands as the right ones. She appreciated his generous gesture, but after everything he’d done, she was sure he could understand how hard it was for her to believe he didn’t have an ulterior motive.

Ashland didn’t blame Victoria for being suspicious. He said his motivation was guilt. He felt he had to pay back the wrong he did to her and to her family and for Rey’s death. He knew it was an accident, but none of them would’ve been on the road that night if not for the pain he caused Victoria. Victoria revealed that Rey died of a heart attack, and that was what caused the accident, so Ashland didn’t need to feel guilty, at least not about that. He thanked her for telling him that, when she could’ve just let him blame himself. She reasoned that he had enough to feel guilty about. She wondered if he’d want to withdraw his offer to Nick, but he said Rey was a good man who deserved to be honored.

Victoria went back to work. Nikki dropped into the office for the coffee Victoria was supposed to bring her from Crimson Lights. Victoria admitted she forgot to buy it, because she got distracted by Ashland. Victoria brought Nikki up to speed on her talk with Ashland. Nikki sensed Victoria was haunted by her feelings for Ashland. Victoria said she’d pushed her feelings for him away. Nikki suspected that Victoria had just pushed them down, not away, which would only make the emotional turmoil worse later. Nikki thought Victoria should deal with her feelings now before they ate her up inside.

Victoria admitted part of her still loved Ashland. That mortified her. The worst part was that she kept wondering what if Ashland was actually telling the truth for the first time in his life. What if falling in love with her changed him and he regretted what he’d done? Those questions made Victoria feel week and humiliated. Nikki thought it was perfectly reasonable for Victoria to feel that way. Nikki said Victor had to show her a lot of proof before she could believe Ashland had actually done all these things, because his love for Victoria seemed so sincere. Nikki said Ashland’s love for Victoria might be the only true thing about him, but if that was the case, was it worth complete forgiveness? Victoria said of course not – nothing could undo the wrong Ashland did to all of them. “What about saving your life?,” Nikki asked.

Ashland and Nick met at Society. Nick accepted the money on the condition that the donation remain anonymous. He said that if Ashland was truly doing this out of the goodness of whatever heart he claimed to have, and not to repair his disgraced reputation, that shouldn’t be a problem. Ashland always intended to keep the donation anonymous, so he was fine with the stipulation. Nick said this didn’t change how he felt about Ashland. Ashland wasn’t surprised. Nick knew Ashland was only doing this to make himself look better in Victoria’s eyes. Ashland said Nick was making assumptions. Nick thought that if Ashland truly loved Victoria, he’d leave forever and give Victoria a chance to rebuild her life. Ashland refused to leave town. He said Harrison was here, and he planned to spend as much time with him as possible. Ashland wasn’t going to hurt Victoria any more than he already had. He was focused on improving himself, and this donation was a small first step toward making amends. Nick didn’t buy it or trust Ashland. He and he family weren’t going to let Ashland maneuver his way back into Victoria’s life. Ashland stated that he wasn’t intimidated by Nick. He said that the Newmans already closed ranks around Victoria and tried to run him out of town, and it didn’t work. Nick said next time, they’d get more creative and more extreme.

Sally dropped into Adam’s office. She wanted to discuss the budget, unless he’d decided to leave the company. He decided he couldn’t walk away from his family or the chance at ever running Newman Enterprises. It frustrated him that Victor couldn’t see that Victoria didn’t deserve the position after everything that went on with Ashland, but he felt that if he quit, she would win. Adam wanted to be the sole CEO of Newman Enterprises. Sally recalled Adam saying he had that job before, and it didn’t stick, so she said failure wasn’t an option this time. She asked how she could help him pull this off. He had the perfect plan, and Ashland was the key.

Sally wanted details. Adam initially thought that getting Ashland out would make him a hero in his dad’s eyes. That didn’t happen, unfortunately. Adam said that even after everything Ashland did, Victoria still seemed conflicted. Sally thought that was understandable, since you couldn’t just turn off your feelings. Adam said Ashland saved Victoria’s life when he pulled her out of a burning car. He didn’t think Ashland orchestrated that, but he thought Ashland would use it to try and win Victoria back. Sally suggested that Ashland’s love for Victoria was real, since betraying someone and loving them weren’t mutually exclusive. Adam thought it was more about ego and being rejected than love. Regardless, if Ashland won Victoria’s love and trust, either he’d take her as far away from Victor and all things Newman as possible, or Victor would be so angry with Victoria for taking Ashland back that he’d question her ability to run the company. Then the door would be open for Adam. Sally said all this was predicated on Ashland winning Victoria back. Adam suggested he and Sally help reignite Ashland and Victoria’s romance.

Sally was intrigued by the plan, but she was worried because Victor would turn on Adam if he found out about the scheme, and there would be no coming back. Adam said they’d have to be subtle, and they certainly couldn’t collude with Ashland. Sally agreed, since they knew Ashland couldn’t be trusted. Adam said the genius of the plan was they didn’t have to do anything overt to pull this off, and no one would ever know it was them.

Sally and Adam went to Society, and took a table near the bar, which was where Nick and Ashland were sitting. Ashland wondered if this had something to do with Nick’s warning that the Newmans were going to get more extreme. Nick wanted to get moving on the donation. Ashland made a call and transferred the money to New Hope. Nick thanked Ashland for the donation and said at least one good thing would come out of his lies. Nick left. Adam overheard everything. Adam said Ashland’s donation was a clever power play, but it didn’t mean Victoria would take him back. Ashland said this was none of Adam’s damn business. Adam thought that was rude to say, since he was the reason Ashland had a half a billion dollars.

Ashland regretted taking the money, since it wasn’t worth giving up the woman he loved. Adam didn’t buy that, he noted that Ashland wasn’t upholding his end of the bargain. Ashland pointed out that he agreed to leave the company and have his marriage annulled. Ashland asked what the problem was. Adam said that the problem was that Victoria fell for Ashland and she didn’t drive him out of town after she found out what he’d done. He said it was like Victoria was still holding onto the fantasy of the guy she thought she fell in love with. Ashland left. Sally could tell Ashland was affected by the hint that Victoria still had feelings for him. Sally said the best part was the fact that Adam made it look like an insult. Adam was going to go plant another seed. He said he’d see Sally at the office.

Victoria and Nikki continued their discussion at Newman Enterprises, and they didn’t notice Adam walk in. Victoria said that she was still trying to figure out what it meant – Ashland rescuing her. They finally noticed Adam. He said he couldn’t get over the lack of gratitude for getting Ashland out of her life and out of the company. Victoria told Adam that he’d never thrive in business if he didn’t get past his continual need for positive reinforcement. He said he’d come to tell her that he wouldn’t fight her on not naming him co-CEO, and he wouldn’t try and get Victor to change his mind. He congratulated Nikki and said he looked forward to working with them both. He left. Nikki asked what the hell that was about. Victoria had no idea, but she could use a break from all things Newman. She left to get fresh air.

Victoria wasn’t using her cane anymore, but she still had a limp as she entered Society and took a seat at the bar. Sally made a beeline to her and asked how she was doing since the accident. Victoria said she was healing, then she turned away from Sally. Sally persevered and continued to try and strike up a conversation. Sally was impressed Victoria was back to work. Sally assumed Victoria was here to escape the office intrigue. She wanted to talk with Victoria and offered to buy her a drink.

Nick and Sharon met at her place, and he told her about taking the money, even though he hated being near Ashland. She thought he did the right thing. She couldn’t wait to go to the first ribbon cutting ceremony. She knew Rey would be smiling down at them. He asked what she was doing today. She told him about the gift bags she was going to make. Faith was out getting the supplies. Nick wanted to know how Sharon was really doing. Sharon said it was hard in Miami at first, seeing how deeply other people missed Rey. She bonded with Rey’s family over their grief. Lola was excited about the wedding. Arturo’s little boy was too young to understand why everyone was together; he just knew he was surrounded by people he loved. Sharon said that was a reminder that they had to celebrate all they had right now, because life went on. That was why she was putting all her energy into making sure Mariah and Tessa had an amazing day. He was proud of her and her strength. Sharon said she and Nick had been through hell more than once, and they always made it through – what other choice was there? She thought this wedding – this joyous life-affirming event couldn’t happen at a better time.

Update written by Joseph

Anna looks to sneak out of the DiMera Mansion with her bags packed but Tony catches her at the door and questions where she is going.

Gwen questions Ava wanting to bust her out. Ava points out that they did it before when they helped Kristen escape. Gwen asks what the catch is. Ava says there’s not one as she knows she let her down and she’s trying to make up for it. Ava asks if Gwen is in.

Sarah recognizes Xander in the hospital. Xander excitedly asks if it’s really her. Sarah confirms that it is and asks Maggie what’s going on. Maggie notes that her voice is normal and asks if this means she’s alright. Sarah says she’s fine and asks why they look like they are going to cry. Xander declares that they are both so happy. Xander exclaims that it worked and hugs Sarah. Xander says she is herself again. Maggie is thankful they gave her the antidote. Sarah questions what they are talking about. Xander promises to explain everything soon. Sarah asks what’s going on and why she’s in the hospital. Xander reveals that she was drugged but thankfully the antidote worked. Sarah questions that but Maggie says it’s a long story and they will get to it at some point. Xander declares that all that matters is that Sarah is with them again and herself, so they are very grateful. Xander hugs Sarah again.

Gwen goes over Ava throwing her under the bus, ruining her life, and now she’s eager to help her. Gwen asks what she is missing here. Ava says she feels guilty since Gwen is paying the price when Kristen should be behind bars. Gwen points out that Kristen didn’t help her switch out the antidote with the drug on Sarah as she did that on her own. Gwen adds that she and Xander are over now anyway. Ava says she’s sorry about that and she gets it, noting that she’s done a lot worse to hang on to the men she loves. Gwen tells Ava to get the hell out with her offer. Ava tells Gwen to be realistic that she has nowhere and no one to help her, so she is all Gwen has. Ava declares that it’s Gwen’s choice if she wants to languish in prison all alone.

Anna claims to Tony that she was taking a bunch of clothes that she never wears to the community center. Tony questions her taking them in a suitcase. Tony knows Anna is scared because her trial starts tomorrow but that doesn’t mean she will be convicted. Anna disagrees since Melinda is out for blood, Victor has the judge in his pocket, and Maggie is hellbent on making her pay for what she did to Sarah. Tony argues that Anna can’t just take off like that. Anna responds that she can and will as she has no choice and there is nothing he can do to stop her. Tony questions Anna planning to leave without even saying goodbye. Anna says it was to avoid implicating him as he can’t be caught aiding a criminal. Tony argues that she’s his wife so he wants to help her. Anna complains that she doesn’t deserve his help since he kept telling her that Sarah was no threat to their marriage and wasn’t really Renee, but she didn’t listen. Tony demands that Anna listen now as he tells her that she can’t just leave. Anna cries that it’s time for her to pay for what she did to Sarah.

Maggie and Xander leave Sarah’s room. Maggie expresses her regret for not agreeing to Sarah getting the antidote sooner. Xander encourages her to have no regrets as she was worried it was too risky, so she had every right to be worried. Xander declares that Sarah is back and that’s all that matters now. Maggie says there’s something she has to take care of. Xander questions her going now. Maggie says Sarah is okay and Kayla could be in with her for while. Maggie tells Xander to call if he needs her and promises she won’t be long as she then exits the hospital.

Gwen asks Ava what happens to her deal with Melinda if she accepts her offer. Ava says nothing as she held up her end of the bargain but Gwen escaping is not her problem. Gwen points out that the cops could find out that Ava helped her. Ava isn’t worried and doesn’t see Gwen having any better offers. Ava warns Gwen that time is running out. Ava gives Gwen her number to a burner phone if she decides to call her. Ava reminds Gwen that the clock is ticking as she then exits the interrogation room. Jack then enters the room, surprising Gwen as she thought he had washed his hands of her for good. Jack acknowledges that he led her to believe that and admits he’s sad and angry about what she’s done in the past. Jack is sure she knows that hurting Abigail hurt him, but she’s had a lot of pain in her life and he believes that’s the reason she’s caused a lot of pain so he wants to help her stop doing that. Jack adds that in spite of it all, she is his daughter and a part of him. Gwen calls that very kind. Jack argues that Gwen has it in her to do the right thing and she proved it when she told Xander where to find the antidote. Gwen feels it was the least she could do and she hopes it works and that Sarah recovers. Jack believes that Gwen can recover too from this impulsion for revenge and this need to get what she wants regardless of consequences. Gwen asks if Jack is saying that he has faith in her which he confirms. Jack assures that he cares about her, always has and always will. Jack then reveals that he asked Justin to represent her and he has agreed to take her case.

Anna tells Tony that she’s sorry but her mind is made up and she has to leave, so she’s sorry but this is the end of the road for them. Tony calls that so sad and heartbreaking. Anna agrees but says she really has to go. Tony asks if she really thought he was going to let her flee. Anna responds that he has no choice. Anna says goodbye to Tony and that she will love him forever. Anna opens the door to leave, right as Maggie arrives. Maggie asks if she’s going somewhere. Anna says she has a very important errand to run. Maggie says she needs to talk to her. Anna tells her it will have to wait. Maggie really thinks she will want to hear this now as she knows her trial starts tomorrow. Maggie then reveals that she has decided to drop the charges.

Xander returns to Sarah’s room as Kayla finishes checking her out. Kayla reports that Sarah seems to be just fine. Sarah confirms that she is and asks if anyone wants to tell her what drug she was injected with. Kayla informs Sarah that she was given a dangerous psychotropic. Xander adds that it was by Kristen DiMera which shocks Sarah. Kayla confirms it caused a lot of damage. Xander notes that she hasn’t been herself for quite some time but he’s thankful she is back to normal now. Sarah responds that she has a lot of questions but for now she will just say thank you to them for taking care of her. Xander declares that having her back is all the thanks they need. Sarah asks if they can get the ball rolling on her release now. Kayla wants to do a few more scans to make sure everything is fine, so she goes to check with radiology. Xander tells Sarah that there are no words to express what it means to be here with her now. Xander tells Sarah that he missed her so much. Sarah assures that she’s right here and it seems like it’s been a long time as she then kisses him. Xander can’t believe it and calls it amazing to have her back in his arms again. Sarah says for her it feels like just yesterday. Xander says he’s been wishing for this ever since she left him and he can’t wait to take her home. Kayla returns and announces that radiology will see her now. Xander asks how long it will be. Kayla doesn’t know but promises to let Xander know as soon as she does. Xander tells Sarah that he’ll see her in a bit. Sarah says she can’t wait. Xander exits to go text Maggie.

Anna is shocked and questions Maggie dropping the charges. Maggie explains that if Gwen hadn’t switched the vials, what Anna did would have brought Sarah back to them that day so what Anna did wasn’t terrible. Anna feels it was terrible, thoughtless, and wreckless. Anna tells Maggie that she’s truly sorry for what she put her through and she’s so grateful that Sarah will be okay. Anna thanks Maggie for telling them and dropping the charges, expressing how grateful she is. Maggie decides to get back to the hospital. Tony sends their best to Sarah as Maggie exits. Anna exclaims that she can’t believe she is free. Tony is glad she didn’t go on the run as he kisses her.

Jack informs Gwen that if she pleads guilty to the lesser charges, Justin thinks he can get her sentence knocked down to 5 years. Jack points out it’s nowhere near what she’d be facing if a jury found her guilty, so he’d say it’s a gift considering what she’s done. Gwen worries that Melinda Trask doesn’t really give out gifts. Jack points out that she’d be saving the city the expense of a trial, so if she agrees to all of this then it could be settled very quickly. Gwen takes that to mean she could be going to prison very quickly. Jack insists that this is not the end as if she makes smart and good choices, it could be a whole new beginning. Jack tells her to call Justin if she decides to accept but warns her not to wait too long. Gwen emotionally thanks Jack. Jack wipes tears from his eyes as he exits the room.

Anna and Tony have champagne and toast to her freedom. Anna repeats to Tony that she really is sorry for everything as she was thinking about herself and never of him throughout this whole ordeal. Anna knows now that Tony only went along with Sarah’s delusions because facing the truth would’ve been too hard for her and she was so mad with jealousy that she couldn’t see that. Tony knows he hurt her as well, but he felt he had to help Sarah, maybe because he wasn’t able to help Renee all those years ago and he couldn’t stop her life from ending so tragically. Tony knows Anna might not want to hear this, but he did love Renee. Anna feels they should go down to the DiMera Crypt to pay their respects to Renee because she would do anything for him. Tony thanks her.

Kayla gets Sarah back in her hospital bed. Maggie arrives and says Xander texted her and that he will be back soon. Sarah asks if they can just go home. Kayla goes to get her test results. Sarah tells Maggie how badly she wants to get out of the hospital gown and take a shower in her own bathroom. Sarah jokingly asks about why her hair is in pigtails. Sarah guesses she’s been here awhile which Maggie admits. Sarah hates the pigtails so Maggie offers to cut them. Sarah agrees and says she and Xander like her hair better short.

Xander goes to the interrogation room which surprises Gwen. Xander mentions seeing Jack outside and telling him the good news that the antidote worked. Gwen says that’s really good and she’s glad he told her. Xander thanks Gwen. Gwen repeats that she’s glad it worked out. Xander asks what’s going on with her now. Gwen informs him that Jack hired Justin to represent her and he says he can get her sentence down to 5 years if she pleads guilty to the lesser crimes. Xander asks if she’s going to do it. Gwen responds that she doesn’t know yet. Gwen tells Xander that this probably the last time they are going to see each other, so there’s something she’d like to say to him.

Maggie cuts Sarah’s hair. Sarah tells her that it’s perfect as Maggie comments that she looks like her old self again. Sarah says she feels like her old self and thanks her. Maggie worries about losing her again but Sarah assures she’s not going anywhere. Maggie tells her that she missed her so much and she loves her as they hug.

Gwen reminds Xander of when they first met and she couldn’t stand him as she found him insufferable, arrogant, annoying, and obnoxious but then she saw another side to him, a softer side. Gwen states that Xander felt deeply for her and he was so in to her, making so many sacrifices to protect her from her lies. Gwen brings up Xander disposing a body, going to jail, and giving up a million dollars all to protect a woman so desperate to have a relationship with her father that she became a hurricane of destruction. Gwen talks about spending her life deprived of love and affection and then having someone walk in to your life who genuinely cares about you. Xander understands you do anything to hold onto them. Gwen says that Xander is the only one who ever got it or understood her. Gwen declares that no one has ever been there for her the way that Xander has before and she blew it all to Hell. Gwen cries that Xander gave her his heart and she was so afraid of losing it, that she absolutely crossed the line by keeping Xander from the woman he truly loved. Gwen admits she was wrong and she will always regret it. Gwen adds that through all of her mistakes and everything it has cost her, she also received the most wonderful gift from him and that was the gift of love. Gwen says that Xander made her realize that she is worthy of love and capable of loving someone else too. Gwen removes her engagement ring and tells Xander that it belongs to him now, even though she will really miss wearing it. Gwen passes the ring across the table and wishes him happiness for he and Sarah. Xander thanks Gwen and says he should get back to the hospital. Xander guesses this is goodbye. Gwen says goodbye to Xander as he then exits the room. Gwen then breaks down crying.

Tony and Anna go to the DiMera Crypt. Tony stops her and asks if she’s sure she wants to go inside with all that has gone on there recently. Anna thinks the worst is behind them since Ben and Johnny are both free, Andre is a pile of dust, and the Devil is on the run. Anna thinks they have nothing to be afraid of, so they should go in and do what they came to do, and then go back to their champagne celebration. Anna and Tony then head in to the DiMera Crypt.

Gwen calls Ava, who is walking through the town square. Ava comments that was fast. Gwen reminds her that Ava said she didn’t have time. Ava assumes Gwen has decided to say yes then but Gwen reveals that it’s actually a no. Gwen thanks Ava as her offer helped clarify some things for her and for the first time in her life, she’s going to take responsibility for what she has done. Gwen states that it’s only 5 years in prison. Ava argues that’s not nothing. Gwen feels she has a chance to make things right and if she takes it, she might actually have a chance of having a family again. Gwen knows there’s no guarantees but repeats what Jack said that if she makes good and smart choices, then this could be a new beginning for her. Ava wishes her luck. Gwen thanks her and says she will need it.

Xander returns to Sarah’s room and is excited to see Sarah’s haircut. Sarah tells him that Maggie cut it. Xander says she looks beautiful. Sarah asks if he saw Kayla on the way in. Xander confirms that he did and she said she would let them know as soon as she can leaves. Sarah complains of being tired of waiting. Xander asks if he can get her anything. Sarah responds that the one thing she wants desperately is to see her baby, which shocks Xander and Maggie.

Tony and Anna visit the DiMera Crypt where Anna places roses at Renee DuMonde’s headstone. Anna knows it’s ironic but says despite everything that happened between them, she’s sorry that Renee was taken from the world so soon and she hopes that she’s in a better place now. Tony calls that lovely while she says now it’s his turn to say whatever he wants. Anna steps aside to give him a moment. Tony gets on his knees and talks about his relationship with Renee. Tony declares that it may be too little, too late, but he did love her deeply and he’ll never forget her. Anna comments that there must have been some good in Renee for him to have loved her. Tony thanks Anna and calls her the love of his life. Tony thinks they have finished what they came to do, so they go to leave but Anna finds a pacifier on the ground. Tony wonders where that came from. Anna guesses it must be Ciara’s baby’s and that Allie must have brought him here. Tony wonders where they are now.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Leo sits in the town square, writing down a list of his enemies which includes Chad, Abigail, Brady, Chloe, and Sonny.

Sonny joins Victor in the living room of the Kiriakis Mansion. Sonny asks if there’s any news on Ciara and the baby. Victor says not yet but with Rafe and Shawn, he might hear something soon. Sonny asks about Maggie bringing Sarah home last night and if she’s doing any better. Victor declares there will be no answers until he gets his.

Maggie has Sarah set up in a hospital bed and points out that she isn’t touching her breakfast. Sarah continues to act like a child. Xander enters the room and tries to talk to Sarah. Sarah complains about being back in boring old Salem. Xander says it’s important that she is back. Sarah hopes he doesn’t still think she is going to marry him someday. Xander states that he’s not marrying anyone. Sarah declares that one day she will marry Eric.

Abigail arrives at the hospital and greets Kayla, congratulating her on being reinstated. Kayla admits she was surprised but thrilled. Abigail is sure the rest of the staff is as well. Kayla asks what brings Abigail to the hospital. Abigail tells her that she can’t stop worrying about Sarah and she knows Maggie brought her back, so she asks if there’s any change. Kayla says she is the same as when she left but she’s waiting on scan results to know what they are up against. Abigail is grateful that Kayla is back and Seth Burns came to his senses. Kayla thanks her but notes that she doesn’t like being in debt to some unpleasant person. Abigail relates because she is in debt to Ava Vitali.

Ava has a nightmare about Gwen showing up and injecting her with the syringe used on Sarah. Ava wakes up in a panic next to Jake in bed. Jake wakes up, questioning what’s going on. Ava is relieved that she is not there. Jake assures her that no one is there and she was just having a nightmare. Ava tells him that it was about Gwen coming after her for what she did to her with a giant syringe. Jake tells Ava that it’s okay and she’s safe as he comforts her.

Leo goes to the interrogation room at the police station to visit Gwen. Gwen is thrilled to see him, calling him the only person she’d be happy to see. Leo apologizes for not coming sooner as he was busy dealing with the wedding interruption. Gwen can’t imagine how horrible it was for him and says it breaks her heart knowing how they treated him. Leo says it’s nothing he’s not used to, but they are resilient. Leo adds that it took him awhile to figure out that Abigail blew up Gwen’s marriage too but he was just as heartbroken for her as he was for himself. Leo tells Gwen that he came to cheer her up. Gwen says he already has just by being there. Leo assures he will cheer her up in a more substantial way. Leo complains about Abigail and Chad doing a number on them and blew up their lives. Leo then declares that they are going to make those bitches pay.

Victor reminds Sonny that last month he asked if he was interested in taking over Titan and he still hasn’t gotten an answer. Sonny apologizes and says there’s been a lot going on. Victor doesn’t want excuses, just an answer. Sonny calls it a big decision to make. Victor argues that it needs to be dealt with because Titan is sinking and they need a CEO. Sonny says he told him he had to talk it over with Will. Victor assumes that Will demanded Sonny come home because he needs his husband and he doesn’t know why he expected anything different. Victor remarks that Will has always been clingy but Sonny then reveals that Will is actually the one who said he should take the job, surprising Victor.

Jake and Ava lean in to kiss but are interrupted by a knock at the door. Jake gets up to answer and it’s Gabi. Jake suggests she come back later. Gabi asks to speak privately with Jake. Ava tells Gabi that it was Jake’s idea for them to share the bed as Ava goes to get dressed.

Abigail tells Kayla that it was only thanks to Ava that they finally have proof of what Gwen did to her and Sarah. Abigail says as happy as she is, it makes her a little queasy that a former mafia princess is the one who helped her. Kayla says she’s smart to be wary because no matter how many times Ava says she’s changed, she is dangerous and maybe even more so if she’s giving you something you want. Abigail agrees and says she will remain on her guard as far as Ava Vitali goes. Kayla says at least Gwen is paying for her crimes. Abigail says not all of them.

Leo tells Gwen that Abigail screwed her and Chad screwed him, so either they sit around feeling sorry for themselves or they get back at them in similar ruthless fashion. Leo knows if they put their minds together, they will make Chad and Abigail regret going after them. Gwen says she loves the idea of revenge but there’s one tiny problem. Leo tries to guess what the problem is. Gwen then points out that she is handcuffed to the table so Leo remembers that she is going to prison.

Xander tells Maggie that he talked to a lab tech on the way in and he said they were running tests on the antidote and haven’t found anything in it to harm Sarah. Maggie says that may be true but no matter how many tests, it’s part of a complete picture as a full panel of tests to guarantee the drug is safe could take months or years. Xander asks what if Sarah doesn’t have that kind of time. Maggie argues that they are talking about a serum from a mad scientist and her daughter is not a lab rat. Maggie says spending all this time with Sarah has been strange but she’s cherished raising a little girl again. Xander asks if Maggie is saying she doesn’t care if Sarah stays a child for the rest of her life. Maggie assures that she cares but she doesn’t want to tempt fate since this antidote is a complete unknown. Maggie says maybe it will help Sarah or maybe it won’t but right now, she has her daughter, healthy and happy. Maggie turns back to Sarah, who has stopped responding to her, causing Maggie to worry.

Gabi tells Jake that she knows whatever Ava wants her to believe is not true. Ava says she has an errand to run. Ava tells Jake that she will see him later, kisses him on the cheek, and thanks him for being so kind earlier as she then exits the apartment. Gabi mocks them. Jake asks what Gabi wants. Gabi complains about Jake getting right to it and not even asking how she is. Gabi then brings up reading in The Intruder that Jake was attacked by The Devil in Ben and Ciara’s apartment. Jake assures it was accurate and not the first time. Gabi questions him saying it’s true that Johnny was possessed when they fought at DiMera which Jake confirms. Jake tells Gabi that she can go. Gabi says she actually came to talk to him about DiMera as she is here to un-oust him. Gabi tells Jake that she wants him back.

Victor questions Will telling Sonny to take the job at Titan. Sonny confirms that he did. Sonny explains that he, Will, and Arianna miss Salem so when he brought up the idea of being CEO, Will didn’t think splitting their time between Arizona and Salem would be a problem. Victor thought Will loved his job there. Sonny says he does but he can do a lot of work from home and Arianna is almost out of school, so they could just bring her here for the summer. Victor asks if that means Sonny will take the job. Sonny declares that he’s in which makes Victor happy.

Maggie tries to talk to Sarah. Xander asks if Sarah can hear them. Maggie starts to panic and says they need Kayla so Xander rushes out to go get her.

Abigail reveals to Kayla that Gwen told her that she killed her grandmother but she thinks Gwen just wanted to hurt her as deeply as she could because at the police station, Gwen said Laura’s death was an accident. Abigail says that she doesn’t know what to believe which is what Gwen wants as never knowing the truth is the worst form of torture. Kayla calls that diabolical. Abigail knows she could never rely on Gwen for the truth but hates the idea of her getting away with murdering her grandmother. Abigail adds that Gwen has hurt so many other people but at least she’s behind bars where she belongs. Abigail comments that the one good thing that came out of it is that Gwen gave them the antidote for Sarah. Xander then rushes up to them and tells Kayla that she has to help Sarah now.

Leo acknowledges that Gwen going to prison could be an impediment to their plan but he’s sure she will think of a clever way out. Gwen notes that she doesn’t even have money for a lawyer. Gwen brings up all her other charges. Leo asks if Gwen really assaulted Abigail and then looked the other way as she was shipped off to a desert island. Gwen remarks that it was really nice island. Leo argues that they are still family, so he asks if she can’t get Jack to convince Abigail to drop the charges. Gwen asks if he’s joking since he just said how mean Abigail is. Gwen then admits that once she got arrested, she might have whispered something to Abigail that might be quite hard to forgive. Leo wants to know what that was. Gwen then reveals that she told Abigail that she killed her grandmother on purpose. Leo is surprised and asks if she did.

Victor tells Sonny that it’s about time he returned to his rightful place at Titan. Sonny admits he’s excited and that he’s missed Titan. Victor reminds Sonny that Chad and the DiMeras aren’t going to stop looking for ways to take them down. Sonny points out that Chad isn’t CEO anymore. Victor says that Gabi is even worse. Sonny sarcastically promises to be cut throat but assures he won’t let his personal feelings for Gabi interfere with business. Victor hopes Titan will come back stronger and better than ever. Sonny adds that there is also something else he should bring to his attention. Sonny then informs Victor that Leo Stark has sworn revenge against him.

Leo asks if Gwen really killed Laura on purpose. Before Gwen can respond, a cop brings Ava in to the room. Gwen questions what the hell Ava is doing here. Ava tells Leo that if he doesn’t mind, she came to see Gwen. Leo says he does mind and tells Ava that when a friend shares a secret with you, you don’t use it to ruin your friend’s life. Ava asks Gwen if they can talk alone. Leo refuses to go anywhere and says Ava could be wearing a wire so he tells her to get the hell out. Gwen agrees. Ava assures that she wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t important. Ava asks Gwen to let her say her piece and then she will go. Leo tells her to go, so Ava starts to leave but Gwen stops her and tells her to go on and say her piece which confuses Leo.

Jake questions Gabi saying she wants him back. Gabi clarifies that she means as her employee. Jake asks if this is a joke or if Johnny is going to pop out with a camera. Gabi assures it’s no joke. Jake tells her that the answer is no. Gabi asks him to at least hear her out. Jake gives her five minutes. Gabi explains that she was only trying to get rid of Jake at DiMera because she thought that he was trying to screw her over, but now that she knows it was the Devil, she wants him back at DiMera. Jake asks what her angle is. Gabi claims there is no angle and that Jake was great with the clients and Mr. Shin has a soft spot for him. Gabi points out that Jake clearly hasn’t found any other employment. Jake questions just going back to work for her and insists that there has to be an angle.

Xander complains about Kayla taking so long. Abigail encourages that she might just be taking more tests. Xander argues that they still haven’t got the results of the last tests yet. Abigail knows it’s frustrating but it’s the only way to find out what’s wrong. Xander worries about waiting to give Sarah the antidote and if she gets worse or dies. Abigail assures that whatever is wrong is not life threatening. Xander questions how she could know. Xander points out that Sarah was fine and then suddenly completely out of it. Abigail suggests it could be temporary or a side effect of the drug. Xander asks if it was like that for her when she was drugged. Abigail knows Xander blames her for what happened to Sarah. Xander says of course he does since if Abigail wasn’t so determined to get revenge on Gwen with that syringe, none of this would be happening. Abigail says he has no idea how sorry she is. Xander asks what good that does but then apologizes and says at least Abigail came forward with the truth that Gwen was more than happy to send Sarah to Hell with a second dose. Xander adds that at least Sarah has a fighting chance now, so as angry as he is, he owes Abigail his thanks.

Gabi insists to Jake that there is no angle and it’s just a smart business move. Jake argues that Gabi doesn’t do anything unless there’s something in it for her and that helped her get her where she is, but if she wants him to join her, she has to at least be honest. Gabi admits that EJ is making noise about wanting his job back. Gabi claims she’s not scared but needs to be prepared, so she needs what only Jake can offer. Gabi says no matter how qualified she is, she’s not a DiMera by blood which is what counts. Gabi says she will need a DiMera on her side to go against EJ and then when the board sees what a great team they are, they won’t pick EJ over them. Gabi states that this could be the power they talked about. Jake reminds her that a lot has changed. Gabi asks if he has something better going. Jake points out that they just broke up. Gabi says they are both adults so she swears to keep their arrangement platonic, similar to what he has going with Ava. Gabi asks what Jake says.

Gwen tells Leo that it’s alright and he can go, thanking him for stopping by. Leo asks if she’s sure she wants him to leave her alone with Ava. Gwen assures that it’s fine. Leo says he’s there for her if she needs anything because that’s the kind of friend he is, unlike some people. Leo then exits the room. Gwen tells Ava that the sight of her makes her sick. Gwen tells Ava to say what she has to say quickly and get the hell out.

Maggie informs Xander that Kayla just finished examining Sarah and is on her way to rush the test results. Kayla comes over and announces that she just read the test results. Kayla says she’s sorry but according to the latest scans, Sarah’s condition is deteriorating. Kayla knows how frustrating it is for both of them as they hoped the effects of the drug would diminish over time like they did with Abigail. Abigail points out that she got a smaller dose and only once. Kayla says that’s the key difference as the increased dose had more of an effect on Sarah. Xander asks if the antidote would reverse the process. Kayla says she can’t say for sure but that’s what they hope. Kayla declares at this point, it’s their only hope. Maggie argues that it hasn’t been fully vetted. Kayla understands but based on the scans and deterioration, if they don’t intervene, Sarah could end up in a permanently vegetative state. Xander says they can’t let that happen. Kayla knows Maggie doesn’t want to expose Sarah to any more drugs, so it’s her call, but if they don’t try this, she’s afraid it will get worse. Maggie then tearfully instructs Kayla to give Sarah the drug.

Victor tells Sonny that Leo Stark is just the kind of trouble they don’t need. Sonny argues that it could just be an empty threat but since last time, Leo almost torched Titan, he thought he should let him know, especially since Leo already went after Chad. Victor mentions seeing the article in The Intruder and asks when Chad started playing for Sonny’s team. Sonny clarifies that he doesn’t. Victor asks if he’s sure about that. Sonny assures him but says if he’s coming back to Titan, Victor has to promise not to believe everything he reads.

Ava tells Gwen that she came to apologize. Gwen mocks her. Ava says she’s really sorry and she has to believe her. Ava complains that she never meant to sell her out to the cops but they had her dead to rights and she needed a life preserver which was unfortunately Gwen. Gwen asks if she actually thought she could make nice and that all would be forgiven. Gwen complains that Xander and her family hate her and she’s going to prison, so Ava has completely destroyed her life. Gwen yells at Ava to get out. Ava says not quite yet as she didn’t come to beg for her forgiveness, but to help her.

Maggie and Xander return to Sarah’s room. Maggie says it won’t be long. Kayla comes in with the antidote. Maggie confirms she is ready. Kayla then injects Sarah with the antidote.

Sonny walks through the town square and comes across Leo. Sonny questions him still being in town. Leo reminds him that he told him he wasn’t going anywhere. Sonny hoped he wasn’t serious. Leo says there is still so much more to accomplish. Leo congratulates Sonny on being named CEO of Titan and guesses that means Sonny will be sticking around Salem too. Sonny confirms that he will be which Leo calls such good news because he has him right where he wants him. Leo then walks away.

Gabi asks Jake for an answer and then she will go. Jake agrees to come back to work for her. Gabi says that’s great and offers her hand. Jake fist bumps her as Gabi welcomes him back to DiMera. Gabi then exits.

Gwen questions what Ava could do to help her unless she’s a lawyer. Ava says she can do her one better and declares that she’s going to bust Gwen out.

Kayla informs Abigail that she gave Sarah the antidote, so now they wait.

Maggie calls Victor and says there’s no news yet. Victor encourages that Sarah will pull through this. Maggie hopes he’s right. Victor thinks God is on their side. Maggie agrees to keep him posted. They say I love you and hang up. Xander tells Maggie there has been no change yet. Maggie asks if something should be happening by now. Xander says he’s every bit as impatient but they need to give the drug a chance. Sarah starts blinking. Maggie calls out to her. Sarah then looks at Xander and recognizes him, thrilling Maggie and Xander.

Recap written by Christine

Jack told the weeping Allie that he didn’t mean to upset her when he said the Abbotts were her family. She assured him he didn’t do anything wrong. She appreciated him saying that. She tried to say more, but she broke down sobbing. Jack had sensed from the moment Allie got here that something was weighing on her. He wouldn’t have left earlier if not for there being another family issue, with Kyle. He assured her he was here now, and she had his full attention. Allie was so embarrassed. She didn’t usually lose control and cry in front of someone she didn’t know that long. He said he wasn’t a stranger – he was her grandfather. He said she always had a soft spot to land here. He made a lot of mistakes with her father, and he didn’t want to repeat them. Allie said her mother came back to LA after Jack and Phyllis left. Allie had hoped her mom came to spend time with her, but that wasn’t the case. Her mother came to sign some legal papers related to Keemo’s estate. Allie wished she could’ve talked to her mom about the Abbotts, but she never got the chance.

Allie’s mom came to LA, got a hotel for one night, signed the papers and left at the crack of dawn the next day. As a parent, Jack found that unconscionable. Allie said it would’ve been better if she’d never seen her mother at all, because seeing her like that just ripped the wound open. The lack of relationship with her mom made her miss her dad even more. “He was all that I had and now he’s gone,” she cried. Jack knew the loss of a parent was hard. Allie had felt empty and lonely, and she’d felt compelled, without even thinking about it, to come see Jack. He pulled her close and she cried on his shoulder. Once Allie had composed herself, Jack offered some sympathetic thoughts about parent/child relationships. Jack was sure there was more to the story with Allie and her mom, and he wasn’t going to pressure her to say more. He was happy, proud and grateful she came to him. He wanted her to think of this as her home.

In The Grand Phoenix lobby, Diane just learned that Kyle was going back to Italy. She assumed that he’d decided he didn’t want anything to do with her. She took it well, but she was clearly disappointed. Kyle and Diane went upstairs to talk in private, where he explained he was leaving town because he wanted to be with his wife. He still hadn’t made a decision about Diane. He needed to hear what Summer thought. She was curious what the Abbotts said about her after she left. He said it wasn’t his place to repeat what his family said. She understood. She asked what she could do to get another chance with him.

Diane was willing to do whatever it took. She’d take another grilling from the Abbotts, and she’d face the Newmans too. She wanted to show him she was worthy of another chance. He wasn’t sure there was one thing to do to make everything okay. She thought they could just open the door and take it from there. He said it was a dangerous door for him to open, because once he did, it would be hard to close it. He had to decide what to do. He hadn’t given up on her, but he had to figure out if that was because he still had a void created by her death. He also had to think of how this would affect Summer and Harrison. Diane smiled and said that was her grandson. Kyle said Harrison had already been through so much upheaval, and he refused to put his son through more. Diane was proud of the father Kyle became. He said he’d always put his son first. Diane said she tried to do the same, but she fell short. She guessed that if he was leaving, she should probably go back to LA. He said that was up to her whether she wanted to go back to her new life or mend other fences in Genoa City. Diane asked if there was someone specific Kyle wanted her to make amends to. She admitted she’d wronged a lot of people. He wasn’t talking about anyone in particular – that wasn’t his place. He also wasn’t making that a requirement for his forgiveness. He said he’d be in touch in a few days. He turned to go, but she asked if she could have a hug. They both had tears in their eyes. He nodded, and they embraced.

Kyle went back to the Abbott house. Allie told him she had no idea that Taylor – Diane was his mom. She thought Diane was just a random person buying her dad’s house. Kyle knew. Jack said they all knew that it was Diane’s machinations that put it all in motion. Jack invited Kyle to join him and Allie at Society. Kyle appreciated that, but he didn’t think it was possible. He’d love to get to know Allie better, but he was going to be taking Harrison home to Milan. Jack asked if something happened at the hotel. Kyle said he and Diane had a pleasant conversation. He just needed to get home to talk to Summer. Jack hated that Kyle and Harrison were leaving so soon. Kyle promised they’d come back soon. Jack hoped it wouldn’t be so dramatic next time. Kyle couldn’t promise that.

Lauren and Michael were at Society. They’d just returned from a vacation in France. They stayed at an airBnB run by a cute couple, and Lauren said that could be her and Michael some day. He asked if she wanted to run an inn. She thought running a winery would suit them better, but she did dream of retiring to France. She was hoping he’d rethink working for Victor, so they could ensure he didn’t end up with another experience like he had when he’d been thrown in a Peruvian prison. “You don’t like my work husband,” Michael said, laughing. Lauren never said she didn’t like Victor, and she wanted Michael to stop mocking her feelings. He said he wasn’t. He noted that Victor lent them a private jet to take to France. She thought that was the least Victor could do. Michael reasoned that his work would be less stressful now that Ashland had been purged from the company and his marriage to Victoria was being annulled. He hoped things would be quieter. She didn’t think things would ever be quieter with the Newmans. She fantasized about a life in the south of France. He said they could only have that life if she retired too. He asked if she was willing to do what she was asking of him and walk away from Fenmore’s.

Lauren thought Michael was being disingenuous. She said she could work remotely, which Victor would never tolerate. She said he chose to come out of retirement from the DA’s office and work for Victor, and he ended up in a prison cell. He blamed Ashland, but she maintained that Victor set it in motion. She asked what kind of hold Victor had on Michael that made him constantly defend him. Michael felt no need to defend his position. He said he helped Victor expose that treacherous snake. There was no telling what Ashland planned to do to Victoria if he got control of the company. “I help put a stop to that,” Michael stated. Lauren thought that was a good thing, but beside the point. Michael said that Lauren couldn’t run the company remotely while maintaining her high standards for it. He said the only way they could live a stress free life is if she let the company be run by someone else. She didn’t reply, and he said that meant her answer was no.

Michael wasn’t upset Lauren didn’t want to retire. He found her drive sexy. He just wished she could love his job. He promised they’d travel to every locale she wanted to, and eventually they’d retire somewhere, but not now while they were in their prime. She agreed that they were in their prime. He suggested that they continue to thrive in their respective careers, live their lives to the fullest, and when it was time, they’d walk off into the sunset hand-in-hand. She smiled and said he had a good point, but she added that her job was relatively safe. No one was going to put her behind bars because she declared pink the color of the season. He thought things with Victor would settle down, but if things became an issue, they’d revisit the topic. She wanted him to compare their wonderful trip to the time he spent behind bars.

Michael went to the Grand Phoenix bar, and unknowingly took the spot next to Diane. He saw her out of the corner of his eye, and she smiled. “No,” he said. “Yes. It’s me. I’m back,” she replied. Groaning, he noted that she was dead. “And now I’m not,” she replied. She said it was a blessing and a curse – she came back a changed woman, but no one would believe her. He asked if she ever thought anyone would. She’d hoped. She told him to give him her worst. She said she’d spent days explaining herself to people who didn’t believe her, and she was mentally and physically exhausted. She told him to go ahead and call her evil or a crazy bitch or whatever else he could think of. He warned her that he had a pretty good imagination. She’d thought it was possible to get a fresh start in Genoa City, but she was realizing that was increasingly unlikely. She told him to go ahead and insult her and storm off, so she could finish her drink in peace. He clarified that he actually thought it was pretty good to see her.

Diane wondered if Michael was happy to see her because he wanted to see her finally suffer for her crimes or because the town needed a new punching bag. “At least you have two kidneys,” he replied. He was genuinely glad she wasn’t dead. She wasn’t sure whether or not to believe him. He suggested that the new improved not-dead-Diane should be a smidge more trusting. She decided he was right. Phyllis exited the elevator and saw Diane and Michael clink glasses.

At the cottage, Sharon came downstairs in her black dress for the memorial service. Nick and Faith thought she looked beautiful. He’d talked to Chance and Abby, and they were going to meet them at the church. Chance had told Sharon that the GCPD was going to hold their own memorial service for Rey. Noah came downstairs and said he put together a slide show of photos for the service. Mariah and Tessa came in with food for after the service. Sharon was grateful everyone was here. Chelsea showed up. She’d heard about the memorial service, and she wanted to attend, but she understood if this was family only. Mariah gently explained that this was just for the family and Rey’s partner, but Sharon spoke up and said Chelsea could come. Sharon knew Chelsea and Rey were close friends, and she hoped Chelsea didn’t blame herself for his death. Sharon said Rey had a heart attack, and he didn’t die because he was on the road getting the tickets.

The service happened off screen. Everyone, minus Chance and Abby, returned to the cottage for refreshments. Chance had to work, and Abby went home to the baby. Chelsea declined the food, because she didn’t have an appetite. Sharon thanked everyone for coming. She loved the song Tessa sang and Noah’s photo montage. She’d always remember Chance’s lovely eulogy. She thought Rey would be proud of the memorial. Nick said Rey was determined to turn him into a soccer fan. He reminisced about their little arguments over whether soccer or American football was better.

Noah said Rey was easy to be around and treated him like a buddy, not his wife’s son. Noah said he went to the coffee shop after a date that went well, and Rey noticed Noah missed a button on his shirt. Noah was glad Rey pointed it out before Sharon or anyone else saw it. Sharon wondered who this woman that Noah was with. Faith hoped Rey knew what a part of the family he was. Sharon said everyone’s memories today proved that he did. Sharon asked if Chelsea wanted to share anything. Chelsea appreciated how wonderful Rey was with Connor. She got choked up and couldn’t say more.

Tessa appreciated Rey working behind the scenes to help her sister. She’d never be able to thank him. It made Mariah wonder how many people Rey helped that htey’d never know about. Sharon had received a lot of emails and notes from people Rey helped out. Some of the things Rey told her about, but he’d downplayed them, and other things she never heard about, because Rey wasn’t in it to get accolades.

Noah said he’d take Sharon to the airport, or fly with her if she wanted. She appreciated it, but she didn’t want him to take time off work. Chelsea asked where Sharon was going. Sharon said she was taking Rey to Miami, so he could be buried there, as his mother wanted. Mariah wanted to go to Miami too, but Sharon thought she should stay and work on the wedding. Nick also offered to go. Sharon said it wasn’t necessary, and he might have to deal with Diane. She appreciated everyone’s offers, but this was the last trip she’d ever take with Rey, and she’d prefer it if it was just the two of them. Everyone understood. Sharon was going to go rest before her trip to the airport. She thanked everyone again for their support and said she loved them all. This memorial was just what she needed.

Tessa and Mariah went home. Mariah thought Sharon was going to be okay, and she was a little less worried about her now. It made Mariah feel less guilty about going forward with the wedding planning. It was nice to have something to look forward to. They couldn’t wait to be each other’s wives. They kissed.

Chelsea went home to her suite. She said Rey was good to her son, and good to her too. So kind and generous. She thought that what they shared was a genuine bond that was stronger than friendship. She felt guilty saying that, but it was true. She wasn’t sure if it would’ve developed into something more. Chelsea would’ve felt bad if it had, since Sharon was a good woman who truly loved Rey, and Chelsea already put Sharon through a lot of pain. Chelsea said none of this mattered because Rey was gone. She felt angry and sad because she’d lost a potential future with a man that she could’ve loved. Once again, her happiness had been ripped away. She wondered when she’d get to win.

Sharon was in her living room by herself. She picked up a photo of herself and Rey, and she held it to her heart.

Allie: Meet my family?

Jack: They’re all here. Come on in.

Kyle: You’re not seriously suggesting I decide something this important with a flip of a coin, billy.

Billy: All I’m saying is that it’s your decision.

Ashley: You know my stance on diane.

Traci: Whatever you decide, we will support you.

Abby: Absolutely, kyle. You can count on us.

Jack: Everyone, I would love for you to meet allie nguyen. This is keemo’s daughter and my granddaughter.

Allie: Hi, everyone. How are you? It’s great to meet you guys. I’m so sorry. I feel like I have interrupted something.

Traci: No, no, please, please, don’t feel that way. We’re just so glad to finally meet you.

Jack: We were just talking about diane jenkins — or taylor jenson as you knew her. She was just here.

Allie: She’s in town, too?

Kyle: Yes, she is.

Allie: You must be kyle.

Kyle: I am. It’s nice to meet you, allie.

Allie: It’s good to meet you. It’s weird because, you know, you are the reason that taylor — or diane — brought jack and me together. I’m still trying to get my head around all of it.

Kyle: Me too. Look, I’m sorry, allie. We’re all in this awkward, emotional state right now, and it’s —

Abby: Welcome to genoa city.

[ Laughter ]

Billy: It’s not usually this intense.

Allie: I can’t imagine what you’re going through, all of you guys. I know this must be incredibly difficult. You know what? I think, um, this isn’t such a good time. I should probably —

Jack: No, no, not at all. Everyone’s been looking forward to meeting you.

Traci: We have.

Jack: You see? You can’t leave now.

Nate: We could alleviate that problem with a more efficient centralized distribution center.

Devon: Mm. Well, I love the sound of that. I do. These are really great ideas you have, man. I made the right choice picking you to be coo. I can tell this is more than just a job to you.

Nate: That’s right. It’s a whole new direction for me. I’m inspired. And I want you to know i appreciate your confidence in me. I know we’ve been through a lot these last few years, but I’m glad we were able to salvage our relationship.

Devon: Yeah, so am I, man. I really am. I think that all of us working together is proof that family and forgiveness is more important than anything.

Lily: Amen to that.

Sharon: Thank you so much for making this possible. We know that the short notice makes it difficult, and we just really appreciate it. Alright, we’ll see you soon.

Nick: Was that the church?

Sharon: Yep, everything is set up for the memorial service this afternoon.

Nick: Good.

Sharon: I’m really glad that I was able to pull this together so quickly so that we can say goodbye to rey here in his other home before his funeral in miami.

Nick: Yeah. I’m sorry I had to take off earlier and I wasn’t around to help.

Sharon: No, no apology necessary. I’m the one that told you you should go and talk to locke. And besides, noah, tessa, and mariah, they pitched in planning. What did locke say?

Nick: Don’t worry about it. Not gonna waste one more second thinking about him. There’s too much to do, so what’s left? What can I do to help?

Sharon: Um…well, I really want to keep this small and family-oriented, so I didn’t make any public announcement or anything. I just think if the event got too big, it would be difficult for me.

Nick: Well, I’m glad you’re being honest about what you need this day to mean to you. And I will do anything I can to ensure that your wishes are respected. But I’m really hoping there is one thing you’ll reconsider. (Dana)it’s very difficult for the family

Sharon: You want me to reconsider something about rey’s funeral?

Nick: Yeah. But not today’s service.

Sharon: What then?

Nick: Miami. I really think that you should take someone with you. You know, take one of the kids or I could go with you. I just don’t think you should be alone.

Sharon: Well, I appreciate that, but, um, I’m fine traveling by myself, and once the plane lands, I’m really not going to be alone. I’ll be with celeste and arturo, lola — all of rey’s family. They’re gonna be there with me. We’re gonna get each other through this. It won’t be easy, but I’m gonna be in good hands. You don’t have to worry about me.

Nick: Okay. If you change your mind or you get uncomfortable, then just say the word and I’ll get on that flight with you.

Sharon: I doubt I’ll change my mind.

Nick: Okay. Well, if while you’re down there, you decide you need me, then just call me. I’ll get on the first flight and get there as fast as I can.

Sharon: Thank you. It really means the world to me that you would do that.

Nick: Well, you know I mean it, 100%. I will do anything for you.

Sharon: Thank you so much, nick.

Lily: Yeah, I mean, this all sounds great, so I think we can run with a couple of these ideas and see what happens.

Nate: Thank you, lily.

Devon: Have we settled on how we want to launch the new company?

Lily: Well, I mean, I still think, you know, having a big party with a big media push is the way to go. I know that you were unenthusiastic about it, so have you changed your mind?

Devon: Yeah, I think I have. I think I’ve — I’ve come around to the idea. We’re gonna have a big party, it should be, you know, noisy and flashy and we should get as much attention as possible.

Lily: Wow, very unlike you.

Devon: Well, no, I understand what you mean by this being a big opportunity to show the world how important chancellor-winters is gonna be. So if we’re gonna compete with the big dogs, we need to go big. Right?

Nate: So we’re all in sync.

Lily: Yeah, look at that. It’s all coming together.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] Let’s hope we can agree on more important issues than “we should throw a party.”

[ Laughs ]

Lily: No, we will, we will. This is just the beginning.

Devon: Should billy be here for these discussions? ‘Cause he’s on the team, right?

Lily: He’s at an abbott family gathering, so I’ll fill him in later.

Devon: Was he okay during the last meeting we had?

Lily: Yeah, why?

Devon: He just seemed a little out of it.

Lily: What do you mean?

Devon: I don’t know, it was when you started talking about, like, legacies and families and chancellor-winters and just what it meant to us — he kind of checked out.

Nate: Yeah, I picked up on that, too. You think he’s uncomfortable being the non-family member at the top of a family company?

Allie: Well, it seems like you guys are going through a lot, and I — I really don’t want to add to any more distress.

Kyle: Allie, you being here means a lot to all of us, and I’m sorry, but we’re not gonna let you go. Whatever stress we’re dealing with right now, we’ll get through it. We just want you to feel welcome here.

Traci: I second that.

Allie: Thank you.

Abby: You’re not imposing. Please don’t think that.

Ashley: We were wondering when we would get to meet you.

Billy: And your timing is actually very efficient. You get to meet us all in one shot.

Abby: Although I’m sure that must be a bit overwhelming.

Allie: Yeah, yeah, it’s kind of a lot.

[ Laughter ] But, you know, you guys have all been so kind, and I really appreciate that.

Jack: Does that mean you’re staying?

Allie: Yes. Yes, I will.

Jack: Good! Okay, you can meet everybody. You’ve met kyle already. Let’s see, this is my sister ashley.

Allie: The chemist.

Ashley: That’s right.

Jack: My sister traci.

Allie: The writer.

Jack: This is my sister ashley’s daughter and my niece abby.

Allie: The restaurateur.

Jack: And this is my brother billy.

Allie: The —

Billy: Oh, you go ahead and say it — the good-looking one.

[ Laughter ]

Traci: Allie, we’re just so glad that you’re here. And on behalf of the whole family, we wanted to say how very sorry we were to hear about your father.

Allie: Thank you.

Ashley: I worked with keemo, and I got to know him quite well. What a talented, such a gifted chemist. And more importantly, what an amazing human being.

Allie: He was all of those things. And the best father I could’ve ever hoped for.

Billy: You know, allie, we’ve all gone through that kind of loss, so you have our condolences. Jack said that you were pretty tied up with your father’s estate and finishing up grad school. We weren’t sure when we were gonna be able to meet you. So what happened with your schedule that you were able to come out here to genoa city? Hi, I’m karen.

Lily: No, billy’s not uncomfortable working with us or in any situation. I mean, that’s his superpower.

Devon: I didn’t mean to make a big deal about it. It’s just something that i noticed.

Nate: Ditto.

Devon: Do you think that there’s any part of him that would rather be working with his family at jabot?

Lily: No, I mean, he left jabot because he was ready to get out of there, and he’s never looked back.

Devon: Okay. Yeah, I mean, you guys — you guys did some amazing work at chanccomm.

Lily: Yeah, we did. And look, I mean, you know, he’s excited about the merger. I know that. And maybe his name isn’t winters or chancellor or hamilton, but he’s 100% committed to the company.

Devon: That’s good to hear. And I’m not questioning his commitment at all. I just want to make sure that everything’s okay with him.

Lily: Yeah, everything’s fine.

Devon: Good.

Lily: So, um…are we good here?

Devon: Yeah, I think so. I think that’s it. I do have a meeting I need to get to, though.

Elena: Oh, hey.

Devon: Hey.

Lily: Hello.

Elena: So this is where the party’s at. You guys can just pretend I’m not here.

Nate: Well, that’s impossible. You’re the center of attention in any room you walk into.

Elena: Yeah? Even after a 12-hour shift at the hospital?

Nate: That’s when you’re the most gorgeous.

Lily: Well, that’s okay. We’re gonna leave so that you guys can keep talking about how gorgeous you both are.

Devon: I’ll walk you out.

Elena: Bye.

Devon: See ya.

Nate: Bye.

Elena: So? How did the meeting go? Did they like your idea?

Nate: Doesn’t even matter.

Elena: It doesn’t?

Nate: No, because all I care about is you right now.

Elena: [ Chuckles ]

Allie: Well, I’m not always the most spontaneous person, but jack told me the door was always open.

Jack: And I meant it.

Allie: And so I’ve been thinking a lot about your invitation. I had finished the semester. It was all really stressful. I had papers, finals, presentations, and so I just decided that I needed a break. And so I found a cheap flight, and, well, here I am.

Traci: Well, we’re so glad you got on that plane.

Allie: Thank you, traci.

Abby: You brought some luggage, so you must be planning on staying awhile. How long are you gonna be here?

Allie: Uh, well, at least overnight, and then I guess we’ll take it from there. Can anyone recommend a good hotel for me to go?

Traci: Oh, no, no, no, you have to stay here. We have so much room. And mrs. Martinez will take really good care of you.

Ashley: And we’re not always here like this at the same time. This is actually a rarity, so you’ll definitely have some privacy.

Allie: Thank you so much, but I really don’t want to impose on you guys.

Jack: No, you are not imposing. You are an abbott. This is the abbott house. You have to stay here.

Allie: That’s very generous of you. Thank you.

Traci: Good. Okay. Let’s get your things, and we’ll take you upstairs and find a room. And you can freshen up and I’ll show you around.

Allie: Thanks, traci.

Jack: Allie, I have to take off for a minute. I will be right back.

Allie: Okay.

Jack: One other thing.

Allie: Yes?

Jack: I’m real glad you’re here.

Allie: Thanks, jack.

Nick: Thank you.

Sharon: I just have a few things I need to wrap up here before I can leave town.

Nick: Okay, I’m just texting everyone, letting them know we’re gonna meet at the house before we go to the church.

Sharon: Okay, great. Thanks. I won’t be too long.

Nick: Okay.

Diane: Nick newman.

Nick: Sorry, hold on one second here. Alright, there —

Diane: Hello.

Nick: What is this? Who are you?

Diane: I can assure you I’m not a doppelganger and your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you.

Nick: Diane?

Diane: Yeah, it’s me.

Nick: No. No. No, no, no. It’s not — I mean, you’re —

Diane: Dead? Nope, I’m very much alive. And I’m back. I brought in ensure max protein,

Nick: This is impossible.

Diane: Oh, come on, stranger things have happened in genoa city.

Nick: What kind of game are you playing?

Diane: Relax, this has nothing to do with you.

Nick: Where have you been?

Diane: Um, I’ll give you the highlights. I wanted a fresh start, faked my death, moved to california, and now I am back and I want to make amends to my son.

Nick: [ Scoffs ] You devastated kyle. There’s no making amends for that.

Diane: I’m trying, nick. I know it’s going to be hard, but I’m not giving up.

Nick: What you did to your son, what you did to the entire abbott family —

Diane: I know, I just saw the whole family. It was not a warm and fuzzy reunion.

Nick: And that doesn’t include what you did to my family. My mother was charged with your murder — a murder that obviously didn’t happen.

Diane: Okay, okay. I mean, I’ve heard this from everyone since I got back. I was a terrible person. But I’ve changed.

Nick: You think anybody’s gonna believe that?

Diane: All that matters is that kyle believes it. I — I want a relationship with my son. We’ve had a couple of face-to-face meetings.

Nick: Kyle is in genoa city?

Diane: Yes, he’s here from italy. I’m sure he would’ve reached out, but, you know, he’s obviously been kind of busy. He had some things on his mind. I’m sure you understand.

Nick: I don’t understand any of this.

Diane: I told kyle that I am ready to prove that I am worthy of being his mother, of being in his life.

Nick: Oh, and how did he respond to that?

Diane: He’s considering it.

Nick: Well, if he was smart, he would stay as far away from you as possible. And, diane, let me tell you something, you’re gonna stay away from summer. Does she know about any of this?

Diane: I’m sure kyle has told her. Several people in town know, including your mother and father. I’m surprised they didn’t tell you.

Nick: Well, they know I have bigger issues going on right now, actual life-and-death issues, not just somebody who’s pretending to be dead.

Diane: Or maybe they’re hoping I’ll just leave quickly, never to be heard from again.

Nick: Well, if you were smart, that is exactly what you would do.

Diane: Is that a threat, nick?

Billy: [ Sighs ] Well, busy day at the abbott house.

Ashley: Mm-hmm.

Billy: First a woman who’s been dead for a handful of years shows up, and when she leaves, there’s a knock on the door and it’s jack’s long, lost granddaughter.

Ashley: I just hope kyle’s okay. He seems to have disappeared.

Billy: Yeah, I’m sure he needed some space from the crowd. I’m assuming that’s where jack went, because that’s the only reason he would leave with allie upstairs.

Abby: Well, aunt traci’s talking allie’s ear off. What a day.

Ashley: We were just saying that.

Abby: Yeah, it must be the universe’s way of balancing things out. Yes, everyone’s happy to meet allie, but first we had to endure the worst person in the world.

Ashley: I don’t think everybody feels diane is the worst person in the world.

Billy: Oh, are you talking about me?

Ashley: Yeah, because you told kyle he should give his mother the benefit of the doubt. What were you thinking?

Billy: I was thinking that, unlike you, I think people are capable of change.

Ashley: That’s not fair. I think people can change, and i understand why the concept is something close to your heart because of the great strides you’ve made in your own life. However, diane is in another league, billy, and I worry about kyle opening himself up to her.

Billy: Ashley, I think your heart’s in the right place and you’re entitled to your own opinion about diane, but her staying in town is up to one person only, and that is kyle. It’s not our decision.

Ashley: True, but kyle did ask for everybody’s perspective, including mine.

Billy: Yeah, he did, and we gave it to him. And I think that he listened to us, but at the end of the day, that is his mother. It’s not our vote, okay? And we need to be okay with the fact that it’s out of our hands. It’s kyle’s decision.

Jack: Kyle.

Kyle: What are you doing here?

Jack: Well, I saw you leave. I had a feeling you’d come here. I was concerned.

Kyle: There’s no reason to be. I’m sorry I snuck out like that. I’m still in my own head. I didn’t want to make allie’s arrival about me.

Jack: And you want to see your mother.

Kyle: I wanted to see how she was doing after being grilled by the abbotts.

Jack: You’re worried about her. I can assure you she can take care of herself. She always has.

Kyle: I know. That was pretty harsh back there.

Jack: She’s made a real impression on you, hasn’t she?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Kyle: I’m still working through all this, dad. I’m just taking it one moment at a time.

Jack: I just want to help in any way I can.

Kyle: I know you do, and you’ve been very supportive, but I think I need to do this on my own.

Jack: Okay.

Kyle: Besides, you should be back at the house. It’s amazing that allie showed up, and she seemed kind of overwhelmed.

Jack: Yeah, I think that’s meeting the whole family all at once.

Kyle: I could tell you were happy she was here.

Jack: Yeah, I can’t deny, I’m thrilled.

Kyle: I hope she sticks around for a while.

Jack: Well, I think she’s at least for a couple of days. She’s staying at the house. That’ll give me some quality time with her. I have a feeling she came to town for a specific reason.

Kyle: You don’t think she just wanted to meet the family?

Jack: No, I think it’s more than that. But she’ll open up to me once the time is right.

Kyle: For what it’s worth, she seemed really sweet. I look forward to getting to know her.

Jack: Good. Allie’s in good hands right now. I’m concerned about you. Look, I want to be a moral support if I can. I won’t interfere in anything you and diane say to each other. I —

Kyle: Dad, I’m fine. Really. And honestly, I think I need to talk to my mother on my own. There are some things she deserves to hear from me in private.

Jack: Say no more. I’ll see you back home afterward?

Kyle: Definitely.

Nick: It’s not a threat, diane. I’m just letting you know there is nothing for you in genoa city anymore.

Diane: Don’t be so sure about that.

Nick: You left a wake of destruction, but we all managed to move on and repair the damage that you caused. You were gone. You should’ve stayed gone.

Diane: And if it weren’t for kyle, I would have. But after years of missing my son and working hard to become the kind of mother he deserved, I was finally ready to reach out. You know, kyle’s is the only opinion that matters to me. The rest of you can just think whatever you want.

Sharon: Okay, I’m ready. What is going on here? Diane?

Diane: Hello, sharon. You’re looking terrific. And, no, I’m not a ghost. I’m — I’m very real.

Sharon: But how?

Diane: Oh, and I heard about your loss the last time I was here, and I’m so sorry.

Nick: Okay, you don’t need this, sharon. Everyone’s waiting for you at the house. I’ll take you home.

Sharon: Yeah, we have to go, but still —

Nick: I’ll fill you in on the way. Let’s go.

Diane: I honestly didn’t come back to cause anyone pain.

Elena: Oh, that feels really good.

Nate: Tough day at work?

Elena: [ Sighs ] Tough day, tough night. Plus, it’s not the same anymore.

Nate: What do you mean?

Elena: You’re not there.

Nate: Mm.

Elena: So now I have to wait until I get home to fill you in on everything.

Nate: Well, other than that, has the vibe changed between you and the rest of the staff?

Elena: Yeah. I’m not getting that subtle judgment about dating the chief of surgery anymore.

Nate: Good. You don’t deserve any of that attitude.

Elena: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: Besides, your ability speaks for itself. You are a surgical warrior.

Elena: Mm, well, right now i feel a lot less like a warrior and more like a marshmallow thanks to your magical hands.

Nate: Are you headed upstairs for a nap?

Elena: I am certainly headed upstairs. And you’re coming with me.

Nate: Am I?

Elena: Yes, I just got a burst of energy.

Nate: Okay, what do you have in mind?

Elena: Well, I was thinking i would start with a bubble bath.

Billy: Hi.

Lily: Hey. Hello. Nice to be back, right?

Billy: Yeah, sure.

Lily: Just so happy the construction next door is done, so that way we don’t have to work out of the apartment anymore.

Billy: Well, working out of the apartment had its benefits. I liked the commute. I didn’t have to always wear pants. But, yeah, it’s good to be back. We’ve had a lot of success here.

Lily: You seem off. Something happen at the family meeting?

Billy: [ Exhales sharply ] It’s not enough that diane jenkins is alive, she’s in town.

Lily: What?

Billy: Yeah, she came by the abbott house at kyle’s request. I don’t know, I guess to plead her case to the abbotts. We were able to ask her whatever we wanted.

Lily: Wow, so I guess that’s why jack wanted you there. How did it go?

Billy: Well, she gave us her song and dance about how she’s a changed person. She made a pretty compelling case as to why she should be allowed back in kyle’s life. I told him that if I was in his shoes, that I would give her a second chance.

Lily: You did?

Billy: Yes, I did. Ashley had a different opinion.

Lily: Well, I mean, everyone’s gonna have a different opinion, but at the end of the day, it’s up to kyle.

Billy: I agree. That’s what I told him. It’s his decision. And then, after diane left —

Lily: Oh, wait, there’s more?

Billy: There’s more. Jack’s long, lost granddaughter showed up.

Lily: So you met her?

Billy: I did. She’s very nice. She seemed like a very kind person. I was mostly just happy for jack. You know, he was very surprised and over-the-moon.

Lily: Wow, well, that’s a lot to happen in one day. I’m exhausted just hearing about it.

Billy: How’d it go with nate and devon?

Lily: It was actually really good. Yeah, nate is fully invested, pitching ideas. You know, things are coming along. And devon’s even open now to the big launch party.

Billy: Oh, that’s great. Happy to hear that.

Lily: Yeah, so not as much drama as the day that you had, but…

Billy: Well, speaking of drama, um…there’s something else I need to tell you. Want more from your vitamin brand?

Billy: You were right about victoria’s reaction to my “grinning soul” podcast.

[ Sighs ] I ran into her on the way to the abbott house, and she questioned me. Of course I denied it, but she knows it’s me.

Lily: Right, of course she does.

Billy: And she knew that i was talking about ashland.

Lily: [ Sighs ] Well, you let your anger cloud your judgment.

Billy: And now you get to say “I told you so.”

Lily: No, I’m not gonna do that. I — I love that you have the “grinning soul” persona to kind of share things without using your name. You know, I think it’s a good way for you to express yourself. But you have to be careful. I don’t think that your stories should hit close to home.

Billy: I hear what you’re saying, but what is the point in having a free-wheeling, speak-truth-to-power platform if I’m not actually trying to make an impact on the world that we live in?

Lily: It’s about finding the right balance, finding that median point to where it’s both personal and universal.

Billy: You are so smart.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Billy: And I promise you that I will make more of an effort to do that moving forward.

Lily: Good.

Billy: But right now there’s something else on my mind.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Kyle: [ Sighs ]

[ Knock on door ] It’s kyle. Hello?

[ Knock on door ]

Ashley: Hey. Did you go after kyle? I mean, that’s the only reason you left so abruptly, isn’t it?

Jack: Yeah, you’re right. I went to check on him. He’s fine. Where — where’d everybody go?

Ashley: Billy just took off.

Traci: Allie and abby are in the kitchen getting a bite to eat, and I think they’re hitting it off.

Jack: And did you get a chance to talk to allie for a little bit?

Traci: I did. She’s lovely.

Jack: And did you give her the whole abbott family history?

Traci: No. Just volumes one and two.

Jack: [ Laughs ]

Ashley: Jack, I like her. I mean, I know I had my reservations, but now that I’ve met her, I’d like to get to know her a little bit better.

Jack: Good, I’m glad to hear that.

Traci: Although I did get the sense that something is weighing on her.

Jack: Yeah, I got the same sense, but you know what? I’m not gonna push. I’m gonna wait till she’s ready to tell me.

Ashley: Well, whatever is going on with your granddaughter, traci and I were talking and we’re gonna leave the two of you alone so you can catch up.

Jack: Well, that’s very generous, thank you.

Traci: Oh, just one little word of advice before we go.

Jack: Okay.

Traci: [ Chuckles ] Jack, I know that you decided that you’re not going to push her for answers, but what if she’s feeling that she can’t burden you with her problems?

Jack: No, I’ve already told her. She can talk to me about anything, anytime.

Traci: Yes, but she’s young and just getting to know you, and maybe she feels like she can’t open up. I was just thinking, maybe she came here for you to lend her a shoulder to lean on without her having to ask. And tonight’s winning number, 43

Billy: [ Sighs ] There have been some questions about whether I am talking about someone or something specific. What I can say is that my musings — or my ramblings, as some people would call them — are of a universal nature. However, they are from my experiences as I try to share some thoughts to give you one person’s perspective on the world at large. It’s not always going to be pretty. In fact, at times, it will be downright ugly. I will change the names to protect the innocent.

[ Sighs ] But then again, who among us is innocent? I know I am not. And in saying that, I will be hard on myself. But I will be very hard on the ones that mean to take advantage of others. On the ones that mean harm to others. On the ones that have evil in their hearts, I promise you I will show them no mercy.

Nate: Poured you a glass of chardonnay.

Elena: Thank you.

Nate: It should help you relax.

Elena: Oh, I’m plenty relaxed, believe me.

Nate: Mm.

Elena: And yet, energetic. I guess you have that effect on me.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] I feel the same way. I was so excited about work and my meetings with devon and lily, then you walked in. I couldn’t focus on anything but you and these beautiful eyes.

Elena: Mm. Yeah, I could tell you had a great meeting because your energy was infectious.

Nate: It was great.

[ Chuckles ] I didn’t think I could get that worked up about business. It’s inspiring.

Elena: [ Chuckles ] Well, it helps when you’re working with the right people.

Nate: That’s true. There’s something magical about a family coming together to share a dream.

Sharon: I don’t understand how it’s even possible that diane is alive.

Nick: I don’t know the details, but I cannot believe she could show her face around here after everything she’s done to this family. But let’s not — let’s not worry about diane, alright? We’ve got far more important things to consider today.

Sharon: I know. I don’t have the bandwidth right now to give her another moment of my time, but…

Nick: But what?

Sharon: But I’m wondering how her sudden reappearance is affecting you. I mean, I’m rattled by seeing her. And you were a lot closer than I was. How are you doing?

Nick: Look, I’m fine. Let’s not worry about diane, alright? My only focus today is on you. Is there anything you need me to do for rey’s service?

Sharon: I know you’re worried about me and you want to do your part to help, but honestly, nick, just being here is enough. It’s everything. Thank you. I don’t know how I would get through this without you and the kids.

Nick: Well, we’re gonna be there for you today, every day after today. For whatever you need.

Diane: Kyle, what are you doing here?

Kyle: Um, waiting for you. Where have you been?

Diane: Just around town, visiting some of my old stomping grounds, trying to reconnect with genoa city.

Kyle: How’d that go?

Diane: Oh, it was — it was difficult. It’s going to be a long, hard process, but that’s to be expected. I — I feel better just seeing you, though. I’m glad you waited for me.

Kyle: Yeah, I didn’t know how’d you react. I wasn’t sure if you felt like i ambushed you back at the house. But, um…I’d understand if you’re angry with me.

Diane: Not at all. I know why you wanted me to face the family.

[ Chuckles ] I was able to explain myself to everybody at once, and they were able to respond and everything’s out in the open. It was — it was positive.

Kyle: I’m glad you see it like that.

Diane: Yeah, I can imagine there was a colorful conversation after I left.

Kyle: Yeah. That’s — that’s a fair description.

Diane: Yeah. So I guess there’s just one question now.

Kyle: What’s that?

Diane: Where does that leave the two of us? Is that what you came to tell me?

Kyle: This may be hard for you to hear. But I came to tell you…I’m going back to milan tonight.

Allie: You’re back.

Jack: Hey. Everyone’s been treating you well?

Allie: Everyone’s been great.

Jack: Well, you made a good first impression with the abbotts. Everyone is raving.

Abby: Where’s my mom and aunt traci?

Jack: Oh, they just stepped out for a second.

Abby: Well, I am really glad that you’re back, uncle jack, because I have to get going and I didn’t want to leave allie here all by herself. Allie, it was really nice to meet you. If you need anything at all, just give me a call.

Allie: Thanks, abby, for everything.

Jack: Thanks, abby. You’re the best.

Abby: Bye.

Jack: So did you get all settled in upstairs?

Allie: I did. Traci was a big help. Everyone has been really great, jack. Just like you said.

Jack: And your room is okay?

Allie: Yeah, the room is lovely. I mean, the house is just beautiful, so…

Jack: I know this is all a bit overwhelming, but everyone is genuinely happy to meet you, and they all want you to feel at home here.

Allie: [ Sighs ] Your family has been nothing but kind and warm and generous to me.

Jack: They’re your family, too, allie.

Allie: [ Crying ]

Proofread by Anita

Ned: Oh, good. You’re back.

Drew: Hey. I was just out for a run. What’s up?

Ned: Well, I just wanted to follow up with you about the plan to merge ELQ and Aurora.

Drew: Okay. How can I help?

Ned: Call it off.

Esme: It means so much to me that you wouldn’t turn your back on me. Thank you for being so kind. I’m just glad you’re your own man.

Josslyn: No, he’s my man. And you have about five seconds to get your tentacles off of him.

Esme: My tentacles? Wow, Joss. At least my claws would have been sharp, but tentacles?

Josslyn: They’re slimy.

Trina: And they suck.

Esme: I know you guys don’t believe this, but I do have feelings.

Trina: Oh, we know.

Josslyn: Jealousy, possessiveness. Now get lost. And next time you think about talking to my boyfriend, don’t. Because you have one of your own.

Esme: Cam, do you want me to go? See? Cam can make his own decisions. So you’re just gonna have to get over the fact that Cam and Spence are on my side.

Spencer: This season, last season. This season… three seasons ago? Very unlike you, Esme. What do we have here?

Michael: What are you thinking?

Willow: That my mother is dead. But she wasn’t my mother… …and I have no idea who is.

Nina: I didn’t want this fight, Ava, but now that I’m in it, I’m gonna come out guns blazing and Carly’s gonna hope to God that she’s not in the line of fire.

Carly: How is it that you manage to see yourself as the victim in situations that you’ve caused?

Nina: You, Michael, and Willow backed me into a corner about Wiley. I had no choice but to fight.

Carly: You always have choices, and you always make the wrong ones.

Nina: I did everything I could to avoid a court battle. Carly, Michael and Willow forced my hand. And what is this smear campaign that you’re doing about me in the press?

Carly: Oh, what about the feature isn’t true? I mean, if anything is even a little inaccurate, I’ll ask them to retract it myself. And you? She forced you into labor and then she stole your baby. How is it you’re friends now?

Ava: People change.

Nina: All I asked, ever, was a little time with my grandson. Not even a lot. And if you just took five seconds to stop and think about it, Carly, you’d see that we want the same thing.

Carly: Yeah? What’s that?

Nina: Peace.

Willow: How messed up is it that I’m so sad about Harmony? I don’t even know how I wound up with her, if I was stolen, if…my birth parents gave me away. All I know is that Harmony carted me around all over the country from commune to ashram to cult. [ Scoffs ] And now I’m sad that she’s gone?

Michael: I mean, hey, she’s the only mother you ever knew. Of course you’re gonna be sad.

Willow: [ Sighs ] And now I have to go to the PCPD and provide a DNA sample so they can verify Harmony’s motive for killing Neil Byrne and his brother. It is… [ Exhales sharply ] It’s too much.

Michael: Okay, just don’t — don’t worry about the DNA test, okay? I-I can run interference.

Willow: You sure?

Michael: Yeah. I mean, if the — the brother-to-brother appeal with Dante doesn’t work, then there’s always Diane.

[ Knock on door ]

Michael: Hey, Alexis. What brings you by?

Alexis: Hey, I can certainly understand why this might not be a good time, but I was hoping to speak to Willow… about Harmony.

Cameron: I-I’m not choosing sides here, but if I did, I’d have to side with Joss and Trina.

Trina: Not choosing a side is the same as backing the bad guy.

Esme: I am sick and tired of having the same fight with you.

Josslyn: Then come clean. Confess. Say it was some practical joke that got out of hand and you didn’t know how to handle it.

Esme: Why would I confess to something that I didn’t do?

Josslyn: See? You haven’t changed. As for feelings, the only ones you have are for yourself.

Esme: Whatever, Joss. Your issues with me say way more about you than they ever will about me.

Trina: 50% deflection, 50% deception, and 100% shady.

Esme: You two enjoy feeling superior. Thanks for comforting me, Cam. It’s nice to know someone around here still has a heart.

Josslyn: What the hell was that?

Cameron: It’s not what it looks like.

Josslyn: Oh, and — and now you’re texting someone.

Cameron: Look, just give me a second and I’ll explain.

Josslyn: Cameron! Who at this moment could you possibly be texting that is more important than me and Trina?

Spencer: No label. No way to trace it. Unless… [ Inhales sharply ] Alright, Esme. What else are you hiding?

Nina: I heard about Harmony. There’s already been so much devastation.

Carly: You say that like you didn’t cause any of it?

Nina: Yeah, I made my share of mistakes. Mistakes.

Carly: Boy, that’s your favorite word.

Nina: And I’ve hurt a lot of people because, Carly, I was hurting.

Carly: And let me guess — this is where you blame me again?

Nina: No. I understand that… Willow and Michael, they make their own decisions, but they really respect your opinion.

Ava: You know, it’s, uh — it’s getting late, so I’m gonna run. Uh, unless…you ladies need a referee?

Nina: No, we’ll be fine.

Carly: Goodbye, Ava.

Nina: Carly. Sit with me. Please.

Carly: I only have a minute. I’m here to check on Phyllis. I want to see how she’s doing since the robbery.

Nina: I assume you heard that from Sonny.

Carly: No. I have my own sources. But if you’re wondering if I talk to Sonny, the answer’s yes.

Michael: Um, you know, there’s some things I got to take care of at the house, so I’ll leave you to it.

[ Door opens ]

Willow: So…

[ Door closes ]

Alexis: I am just now realizing I only planned what I was going to say through the introduction. So now we’re past that.

Willow: Okay, then. I’ll start.

Alexis: Oh, please.

Willow: Turns out Harmony was… capable of terrible things. But that’s not all she was. And for the time you had a friendship, I choose to believe that it was real. And I’m… glad she had you.

Alexis: I was grateful to have her as a friend, too. She came along when I really needed one. The tragedy is that she knew how to fake being a good person so well.

Willow: Well, I can’t believe it was all fake.

Alexis: I guess we’ll never know. Seems neither of us really knew her, did we?

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Spencer: Esme is on her way back. Esme or not, I can’t give up now.

Josslyn: What is going on with you lately?

Cameron: What do you mean?

Trina: You’ve been acting weird.

Josslyn: What Trina said.

Trina: Like super in denial weird. And by weird, I mean, like…

Josslyn: Esme made a sex tape of us and shared it with the world.

Trina: And I may be going to prison for it.

Josslyn: And you’re over here, like la, la, la, giving Spencer his job back?

Cameron: That was a business decision.

Josslyn: Hugging Esme? Was that a business decision?

Cameron: I didn’t hug her. She hugged me.

Josslyn: Cam, that is the second time I have seen her with her arms wrapped around you. Learn how to dodge.

Cameron: What do you want me to do? Do you want me to leap out of the way or slide across the counter?

Josslyn: Why are you making excuses to comfort her?

Trina: Okay, guys, we need to chill out.

Cameron: Thank you!

Josslyn: Why?

Trina: Because! Arguing like this, this is what Esme wants.

Josslyn: She probably saw us heading over here and then ran like crazy to beat us just so we could walk in on her hugging Cam.

Trina: Okay, Cam, please help us understand. [ Sighs ] I get why you gave Spencer back his job, but…

Josslyn: I don’t.

Trina: …But why are you supporting someone who ruined all of our lives, yours included?

Cameron: I’m just… I’m trying to do the right thing.

Josslyn: No. The right thing would be to stay as far away from Esme and Spencer as possible.

Trina: I gotta go.

Josslyn: You do?

Trina: Yeah. Homework.

Josslyn: Okay. Before you go…

Trina: Thanks. Remember — play nice. Listen to each other. Don’t let Esme win.

Cameron: I won’t.

Josslyn: Did you see that? Why would you hurt Trina that way?

Trina: Hi. I need your help. It’s important.

Drew: Sorry to keep you waiting. Not a problem. I’m on my way to meet Sam. We’re gonna discuss Scout’s summer schedule.

Ned: Oh, so you have to rush out? I do, but I’m hoping to put your mind at ease first.

Ned: Well, I think you know what my concerns are.

Drew: I believe I do, Ned, and like I said, my ELQ shares are gonna revert back to me very soon. Valentin will no longer have majority, but he’s still gonna own a lot of shares, so our position is in order to protect us from future takeovers, the best possible situation is for Aurora and ELQ to merge. That way Valentin’s remaining shares will be even more diluted.

Ned: And what will the leadership structure be in this new company?

Drew: Yeah. I really think that we should wait for Michael to talk about this.

Michael: Here I am. Talk about what? You two think merging ELQ and Aurora is the best strategy to keep ELQ in the family. Now, correct me if I’m wrong, if that merger goes through… I’m out in the cold.

Nina: Carly, I know that you and Sonny will always be in each other’s lives, but Sonny is not who we need to talk about right now.

Carly: You got that right.

Nina: How’s Willow?

Carly: She’s grieving… and heartbroken.

Nina: Yeah. Please send her my condolences.

Carly: No. Don’t do that. Don’t pretend to be concerned about Willow when you were just ranting about how she’s the one who forced you to fight with my family.

Nina: I’m concerned about Wiley, and Willow is Wiley’s mother. So in turn, I’m concerned about Willow.

Carly: Yeah, well, fortunately, Wiley’s too young to understand what’s going on.

Nina: Yeah. But did they tell him that his grandmother died? That grandma Harmony is gone?

Carly: When and if they tell him, that will be up to Willow and Michael.

Nina: No, I understand it’s up to Willow and Michael, Carly, but you don’t want that little boy to feel like he was abandoned by his grandmother. I don’t think it’s fair to keep this from him.

Carly: Are you kidding me? Wiley is too young to process that kind of information. Kind of like when you told him that Willow wasn’t his real mommy. How you hand someone that kind of information can do more harm than good.

Nina: Well, lies can do harm, too.

Carly: Boy, yours sure did, huh?

Nina: Alright, Carly [Clears throat] Whether Wiley knows about his grandmother dying or not, you know, he lost her. She is no longer in his life. Is it really fair for this little boy to lose another grandmother, too?

Carly: You’re not doing this for Wiley. You’re doing this for yourself because you can’t see past your own selfishness to do what’s best for him.

Josslyn: Trina is about to be tried for a felony, one that Esme set her up for, blowing up all of our lives in the process. It is us versus her.

Cameron: Look, Joss, the last thing that I want to do is hurt either you or Trina.

Josslyn: Then what are you doing comforting the enemy?

Cameron: Look, I told you. It’s not like that.

Josslyn: I don’t care who hugged who… but, Cam, you cannot give Esme a literal shoulder to cry on knowing who she is and what she’s done.

Cameron: Okay, look. She came in here looking for Spencer. When I told her that he wasn’t here, she got all upset. What was I supposed to do?

Josslyn: Walk away. Let her wallow in the misery that she’s created.

Cameron: Look, I know what Esme has done, alright? But I’m sorry, Joss. I-I can’t be that heartless. I’m not wired like that.

Josslyn: Unlike me?

Ava: So, come on. Tell me what’s going on. You said it’s important.

Trina: Well… I just saw Esme at Kelly’s… …crying crocodile tears on Cameron’s shoulder, and he was actually comforting her.

Ava: After everything that little demon has done to you? How dare he?

Trina: Well, he did say she just threw herself in his arms and he just froze.

Ava: Uh-huh. Still, though, it’s a major violation of your friendship. I hope you let him have it.

Trina: But that’s what Esme would want, right? To — to drive a wedge between the three of us?

Ava: Yeah. You’re smart. That’s a good point.

Trina: I mean, it just hurt me so much to see Cam and Esme like that. I could never tell him not to be nice to someone.

Ava: Why not? This is Esme we’re talking about. Why should anybody be nice to her?

Trina: It’s just that every time I see her, it’s like she’s just rubbing it in my face that she’s ruining my life and getting away with it.

Ava: What do you mean every time? H-how often do you see her?

Trina: I mean, she just came here the other night to see Spencer.

Ava: [ Scoffs ] So, Spencer is having little rendezvous with his girlfriend in my gallery when he’s supposed to be making restitution?

Trina: Oh, no. He was definitely surprised to see her. But don’t worry. I kicked her out.

Ava: [ Laughs ] Yeah, you did! Good for you. And as for Cameron, you have every right to feel betrayed.

Trina: Thanks, Ava. You’ve had my back through all of this, and I really appreciate it.

Ava: Of course!

Trina: That’s why I needed to meet. I need your help.

Michael: We’re keeping all of our options open in regards to leadership. Everything — everything’s in the early stages still.

Ned: Realistically, how much would this merger actually dilute Valentin’s shares? Aurora and ELQ are hardly on the same scale.

Drew: Okay, well, we’re in the process of bulking up Aurora so that it will be as much of a merger of equals as possible, Ned.

Ned: Oh. It seems as though the two of you have given this a lot of thought for something that’s still in the early stages.

Drew: I mean, since we both run Aurora, we’ve had the opportunity to discuss this a little bit more, that’s all.

Ned: So I shouldn’t read anything into the fact that I wasn’t a part of any of these discussions?

Willow: Michael started to suspect something was up when there was no record of my birth certificate. When Harmony miraculously obtained a copy… I didn’t ask questions.

Alexis: When you lost your copy, Harmony came to me for help.

Willow: Wait. Does this mean… you’ve known she wasn’t my mother?

Alexis: I have.

Willow: For how long?

Alexis: I…

Willow: No, no. You know what? It — it’s okay. It didn’t matter.

Alexis: E-except it does. You must be so angry. I-I should have said something.

Willow: Well, no, of — of course I’m — I’m angry, but as for you telling me, it wasn’t your place. That was Harmony’s responsibility.

Alexis: I tried to get her to, but she was afraid to lose you. She told me a woman on the commune in Colorado named Joan gave birth to you and then disappeared. And the leader gave you to Harmony for her and your father to raise. They were so worried that Joan would come back for you, they left the commune.

Willow: And do you think any of that story is true?

Nina: I love Wiley, and I deserve to be in his life.

Carly: Loving someone doesn’t entitle you to anything.

Nina: Well, he’s my family. And despite your best effort to discredit me, the judge is gonna see the truth.

Phyllis: Carly. Nina. What a lovely surprise to see you both… together.

Carly: Nina and I are done. I actually I came here to see you.

Phyllis: Then why don’t you join me at the bar while I tend to some business? Nina, will you be sticking around?

Nina: Um…I just — I just need a minute. Excuse me.

Carly: I honestly didn’t come here to get into it with Nina. Okay?

Phyllis: Oh, I believe it. Then what does bring you by?

Carly: You know, it’s been a few weeks since the attempted robbery. I just wanted to check on you, see how you were doing.

Phyllis: Oh, I’m doing well. It’s kind of you to take an interest. Just so you know, you’re always welcome here.

Carly: Thank you. And I don’t…expect you to choose between me and Nina. I mean, I know you’re always gonna protect her.

Phyllis: Well, that’s an instinct that never goes away. Nina was pregnant, in a coma. When someone is as helpless as she was… it’s hard not to care.

Carly: And you got roped into Madeline’s lies… lies that set Nina on a path to destruction.

Trina: Proving my innocence in court isn’t gonna cut it anymore. I need to prove that Esme did this… and make her pay for it.

Ava: I’m in. What can I do?

Trina: Well, Esme is obviously a master schemer. I mean, she blows up your car and now she’s living with you.

Ava: Mm. Don’t remind me.

Trina: When it comes to scheming, I’m clearly out of my depth. But you, on the other hand, are not. In fact, you’re the only person I know that can out-scheme Esme. No offense.

Ava: Eh. None taken. In fact, I’m flattered by your faith in me.

Trina: So tell me — what should I do?

Esme: What the hell are you doing?!

Spencer: Esme? What’s up?

Esme: What are you doing, going through my personal things?

Spencer: I was looking for my sunglasses.

Esme: In a shoe box?!

Spencer: While I was searching, I saw that box, and I thought that it was strange that you had kept shoes that were so out of season.

Esme: You think you know me so well.

Spencer: Don’t I?!

Esme: So, what were you doing? H-h-hoping to borrow dated heels?!

Spencer: I saw the letters… from your nanny Maggie. You told me that you lost contact with her. So why is there an entire box full of her letters?

Cameron: Joss, you’re not heartless. You have one of the biggest hearts of anyone I know. It’s just that you can really hold a grudge.

Josslyn: Only when people deserve it. Like Esme.

Cameron: I’m angry at Esme, too.

Josslyn: Really? Because you seem to be in a very forgiving place with her.

Cameron: Look. I haven’t forgiven Esme for anything. It’s just that… your anger is very fierce, but it’s also proactive. You can’t look at Esme without wanting to start a fight.

Josslyn: My friends and my family are the most important things in the world to me. So when someone hurts them, I can’t just forgive them. Is that so wrong?

Cameron: No. I-I-I think it’s great.

Josslyn: You do?

Cameron: Your ride-or-die loyalty is one of the things I love most about you. And I-I like to think that I’m just that loyal. I just don’t express it in the same way.

Drew: I give you my word, Ned. Michael and my proximity at Aurora is the only reason we’ve had these discussions at all.

Michael: Yeah. Look, when — when it comes time to discuss leadership, you will be informed.

Ned: Informed? Look, Michael, up until a few days ago, I was under the assumption that when we got ELQ back from Valentin that I would be the CEO.

Michael: Yes. Yes, I know.

Ned: So if I’m to have a commensurate position in this new company, I feel like I should be a part of all the discussions.

Michael: I agree, and — and we’ll make sure that you are. It’s just… it’s not that simple.

Alexis: As time went on, Harmony’s story didn’t hold up. Then Brendon showed up in town… and you know the rest.

Willow: There’s still so much we’re not sure about.

Alexis: When Harmony first confided in me, I encouraged her to tell you the truth several times.

Willow: Why didn’t she?

Alexis: S-she was worried you would never forgive her. And if she was willing to kill to keep it a secret, well, suffice it to say, your relationship meant a lot to her.

Willow: I’ve been… leaving room in my mind for the possibility that… none of this is true, that… Harmony had some kind of [Inhales sharply] Break with reality, but… now hearing you talk about how much trouble she went through to hide the truth, it’s — it’s really sinking in. Harmony was lying to me my whole life. I feel like I’ve lost my mother twice. Not to mention my father. Oh, my god. My father. I wonder if he knew what Harmony did.

Phyllis: Madeline kept a lot of secrets. I wish I’d been more discerning.

Carly: Well, I’m sure it brought Nina some comfort knowing that you were there when her baby was welcomed into the world.

Phyllis: Actually, I wasn’t at the birth.

Carly: Oh. I thought you were —

Phyllis: By the time I got to work, the baby had already been born. That’s when Madeline gave the baby to me… to send me to deliver her to her adoptive parents.

Carly: Oh. So you weren’t there when Nelle was born. Do you know who was?

Phyllis: No, I don’t. Why do you ask?

Carly: Nina is petitioning to visit Wiley, so, you know, uh, Nelle’s been on my mind lately.

Phyllis: I didn’t realize it at the time, but there was a huge inheritance at stake. That’s why Madeline gave Nina’s baby away and tried to make sure she couldn’t be traced.

Carly: Well, seems like you’re the only person who knew what was going on because Madeline roped you into it.

Phyllis: The one silver lining is that Nina did eventually find out the truth, even if it was too late.

Carly: Yeah. She blames me for that every chance she gets.

Phyllis: I know better than to try and sway you, but just so you know, I’m rooting for Nina to be able to know her grandson.

Carly: I figured.

Phyllis: Excuse me. Are you alright?

Nina: Yeah, I’m fine. It’s just — I think I’m gonna [Sniffles] I’m gonna go home. It’s gonna be a rough few days, and I… I need to get my head on straight.

Drew: I’m not sure that we can offer you a position commensurate to CEO.

Ned: I see.

Michael: Look, when this merger happens —

Drew: if it even happens.

Michael: Yes. Close to 50% of the company’s assets will be media-based, and that’s not something ELQ has ever had much of a stake in.

[ Cellphone beeps ]

Drew: Look, Ned, we’ve got plenty of time to work this out. All the details, okay? I’m so sorry. I really do have to get going.

Ned: Of course. Yeah. We’ll talk later.

Drew: Hey, trust me. You’re gonna be happy.

Michael: I can tell you’re, uh… pretty uneasy about all this.

Ned: What was your first clue? Michael… can I be honest with you?

Michael: Yeah, of course.

Ned: I have sacrificed a lot for this company. You and I have worked very hard together to regain control of ELQ from Valentin. And now we’re about to get ELQ back, and I feel like I’m being put out to pasture. So just tell me the truth. Am I?

Josslyn: I love everything about you, Cam, and I am so lucky to have you as a boyfriend, and I’m so lucky that you’re such a nice person. But Esme uses nice people, like with that hug.

Cameron: I-I just don’t think that she ran all the way here just so you could catch her.

Josslyn: Okay, maybe not. But the way that she touched your shoulder before leaving, that’s her way of telling me, “Joss, your boyfriend doesn’t mind when I touch him, and there’s nothing that you can do about it.”

Cameron: That’s just not how I see it.

Josslyn: Okay, well, how about Trina’s face before she left? Is being nice to Esme worth that?

Cameron: I just think given some time, Trina will understand where I’m coming from.

Ava: Now, you know your mother would have my head if she knew I was advising you like this.

Trina: If it was about anyone else, maybe. But since it’s Esme, I’m sure she’ll look the other way.

Ava: Mm. I hope so. You know, I do have one idea, but I don’t think you’re gonna like it.

Trina: Try me.

Ava: Well, Esme is a jealous, possessive psychopath. And Spencer — I mean, the one good thing about Spencer is that he knows what a wonderful person you are. I mean, he basically threw her over.

Trina: Except he didn’t. Not really.

Ava: Eh, except he did. That’s why Esme went after you. So take advantage of that jealousy. Goad her into making a mistake and trap her.

Trina: So you’re saying I should make a play for Spencer?

Ava: I mean, nothing overt. Just when you know that Esme is there and she can see a little sigh here and a little tear there, and a “oh, no, nothing’s wrong.” Before you know it, Spencer’s arms will be around you and — and hers will be around his throat.

Trina: [ Sighs ] No. Spencer is back with Esme. He’s not gonna respond to me flirting with him.

Ava: Spencer loves your attention! He will fall for it. And it’ll push Esme just far enough over the edge that she’ll lash out and incriminate herself.

Trina: It’s tempting.

Ava: But?

Trina: [ Chuckles ] I don’t think I can take it that far.

Ava: Hey, Trina, not to put too fine a point on it, but you’re in serious trouble here. I mean, don’t you want to do whatever you can to avoid a trial?

Trina: There is something that could help. Something… that I’ve been keeping to myself. But before I tell you what it is, this is a last resort.

Ava: Understood. What is it?

Esme: I kept all of Maggie’s old letters. Congratulations, Spence. You’ve uncovered my deep, dark secret. I’m sentimental. But please don’t tell anybody! I beg of you!

Spencer: Who would believe me?

Esme: Okay, your turn. Why are you in my room violating my privacy when you’re supposed to be on a grocery run for Kelly’s?

Spencer: I blow off work all the time. You, on the other hand, told me that you lost touch with Maggie long before you met me. But that letter directly indicates otherwise.

Esme: Oh, my god. So I reached out to Maggie a couple of times over the years. Why am I the one being interrogated when you’re the one who’s going through my stuff? I thought we were rebuilding our relationship.

Spencer: Esme, we are.

Esme: Really? Because it feels like you still don’t trust me.

Spencer: I feel like it’s the other way around.

Esme: Wait, what?

Spencer: Well, it’s just that lately I’ve been feeling like you don’t trust me.

Esme: Of course I trust you! Though you’re giving me plenty of reasons not to.

Spencer: Such as?

Esme: Going through my things. When you found that box, exactly what did you think you’d find inside?

Spencer: Esme, honestly, I don’t know what I was looking for. I just feel that I don’t know you as well as I thought. And I wanted to find out what I didn’t know.

Esme: Why not just ask me? I mean, we used to talk about everything. If we’re gonna get bach to what we had, then we need to be honest about everything. Completely transparent.

Spencer: I agree. Why don’t we start with this? [ Clears throat ] Why did Maggie write, “No good from you having contact with your father?”

Trina: If I use what I know, there’ll be collateral damage. I don’t want anyone getting hurt except Esme.

Ava: So this secret weapon…it could set you free?

Trina: It’s not a slam dunk, but it might be my best shot. And I’ll use it if I have to. I’d just rather not.

Ava: So you don’t want to flirt with Spencer, and you don’t want to use this ace in the hole because somebody else might get hurt.

Trina: Yeah.

Ava: Hmm

Trina: [ Sighs ] I may be an even worse schemer than I thought.

Ava: Hmm. You’re pretty terrible at it. But you know what? I’m proud of you for that.

Trina: Why? It’s embarrassing.

Ava: ‘Cause, you’re a good person. You don’t go to Esme’s level, or mine.

Trina: Ava…

Ava: Hey, don’t–I’m not ashamed of my level. Hardly. And I’m proud to be your go-to schemer. And listen to me. If you ever find yourself trapped into doing something that you don’t want to do, come to me and we will figure out another way to get Esme.

Trina: Thanks, Ava. I’m so glad to have you in my corner.

Cameron: We’re just…very different people.

Josslyn: Well, I think that our differences have always made us stronger as friends and as a couple.

Cameron: Right. And just so you know, I love everything that makes you you.

Josslyn: I feel the same way about you. I mean, obviously, I don’t love how nice you can be to Esme. She doesn’t deserve it.

Cameron: I-It’s less about being nice and more…me not wanting to escalate things.

Josslyn: Okay. So… we’ll just agree to disagree.

Cameron: Not the first time, and definitely won’t be the last.

Josslyn: It’s just… this is about our different approaches to conflict, right?

Cameron: What else would it be? I have to get back to work, but… we’re cool, right?

Josslyn: Yeah, we’re fine.

Michael: Look, I understand your concern, but nobody’s trying to drive you out.

Ned: I sense a “but.”

Michael: Look, objectively, this merger is the best option to ensure that our family maintains control of ELQ again.

Ned: Mm. Objectively.

Michael: Nothing has been decided. Okay, we’re still leaving the door open to all possibilities, and you’ll have an active part in the discussions of how to move forward. Okay? So, hey, try not to worry too much.

Ned: Sure. Anything for the family.

Michael: Okay.

Alexis: I’m so sorry, but Harmony never mentioned your father. I guess we’ll never know. It’s late. I should go.

Willow: Well, um, thank you for – for coming by and trying to… make things better.

Alexis: For whatever good it did. Any idea what’s next for you?

Willow: I need answers. I need to know where I came from and who my biological parents are. The first step is… getting that DNA test at the PCPD. Because bringing the truth to light… it’s the only way to heal.

Nina: Thank you, Phyllis. As always.

Phyllis: Of course. You know I always have your back.

Michael: Willow’s been through the wringer. Can the DNA test wait?

Phyllis: Call me tomorrow.

Nina: Yeah.

Phyllis: Okay.

Nina: Carly.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Laura (to Nikolas): I’d say that you were defending her.

Spencer (to Esme): I have something very special in store for you.

Martin: Elizabeth believes she’s being haunted.

Elizabeth: What if it’s not him?

Willow: I need to go somewhere.

Nina: And I’m prepared to go all the way.

Drew (to Carly): I can’t be that guy for you.

Michael (to Sonny): Here’s your chance to say that Nina was wrong.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

Days of Our Lives logo

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[Tense music]

Chad: Bad day?

Ej: It’s allie. My mother and son are turning themselves inside out trying to figure out how to make contact with her, but so far, not even a clue where she is.

Chad: Given that the devil can morph into anything from a panther to a corpse, finding her isn’t gonna be easy.

Ej: Could even be impossible, god help us. But at least I got them to agree to get some rest.

Chad: Johnny must be going through hell. Sorry. I just–trying to save his sister from the devil, I can’t imagine. I’m really sorry.

Ej: Actually, I’m the one who should apologize to you.

Roman: Yeah, all right, well, keep me posted.

Kate: Roman, please tell me that is news about our granddaughter.

Roman: I wish to god it was. John, marlena, eric are still out beating down doors. No sign of allie or the baby.

Kate: Damn it, roman, where is she?

Roman: Kate.

Kate: What?

Roman: I’m afraid I have more news.

Kate: Okay, what does that mean?

Roman: It seems that sami and lucas are missing as well.

Kayla: Ah, there you are. I was really starting to get worried about you. How did it go?

Steve: Well, I tell you, I’ve stared down every stray cat that crossed my path. I listened patiently to susan banks’ analysis of the movie “rosemary’s baby,” which apparently she’s seen 168 times, so I thought it was time to call it quits and start fresh in the morning.

Kayla: That’s a good idea. Listen, I made you some chowder. It’s on the stove, and there is a nice cold beer waiting for you to go with it.

Steve: Thank you, baby. What else?

Kayla: I’m gonna head out.

Steve: Well, where you going?

Kayla: I’m gonna go check on ciara. I mean, she’s been through so much, and I just wish that she had a doctor treating her that really knew her, she felt comfortable. If it wasn’t for that jackass seth burns, it…

Steve: Yeah.

[Knock at door]

Kayla: Who could be here at this hour?

Steve: Oh, look, here’s the jackass now.

Julie: So lani’s father is the man who shot you in the park, left you for dead? And now that killer is on his way to paulina’s apartment?

Eli: I should’ve never let lani go over there.

Julie: Well, darling, you’re in no condition to stop her. You know lani, when she gets something into her head, even you couldn’t put the brakes on her, and abraham is there at least.

Eli: Grandma, that’s not enough. I mean, if tr is armed and he feels cornered, we both know how dangerous he can be.

Julie: But lani’s a police detective, so she knows what she’s doing.

Eli: She’s my wife, the mother of my children. I should be there.

Julie: Oh, no, you’re in no condition to do that.

Eli: The best thing you can so for the mother of your children is to stay here and to get well. I know how you feel. My god, if I owned a gun, I’d be tempted to go shoot tr myself.

Paulina: I’m not afraid of you, go ahead, you coward!

Lani: You son of a bitch.

Tr: Lani, baby, I can explain.

[Tense music]

Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”

[Soft orchestration]

Seth: My apologies for dropping by so late.

Steve: Apology not accepted.

Kayla: Hello, seth.

Steve: Kayla, if you don’t mind, I have a few words I would like to say to mr. Burns.

Kayla: Yes, be my guest.

Steve: As you know, seth, my wife devoted years of her life to university hospital. She saved hundreds of lives, and you made the asinine decision to fire her because she wouldn’t play ball with the board and fire another outstanding doctor, who I might point out remains on staff.

Seth: If I may–

Steve: No, you may not. What the hell are you doing here anyway?

Seth: Actually, I’m here to offer kayla her job back.

[Dramatic music]

Paulina: What have you done?

Lani: If ray killed my father–

Abe: [Groans]

Lani: Dad, dad, dad, dad. Dad, can you hear me?

Abe: [Groans]

Lani: Dad–oh, oh, thank god. Oh, thank god, oh, thank god. Dad, dad, he’s alive.

Paulina: I’m not so sure about ray. Ubrelvy helps u fight migraine attacks.

Chad: Why are you apologizing to me?

Ej: Recent circumstances have led me to a bit of a wake-up call.

Chad: By recent circumstances, I assume you mean–

Ej: Finding out that my son was possessed by the devil for months, and not only did I not realize it, I was proud of his behavior–well, some of it anyway. Needless to say, it was cause for some serious introspection.

Chad: Introspection, it’s never really been your thing.

Ej: [Chuckles] Yes, but I suppose that’s part of the problem. I’ve always said that family was my first priority, but my actions haven’t borne out my words, have they?

Chad: From personal experience, no.

Ej: I might have unfairly held it against you when giovanni returned to salem, and he seemed to favor trusty uncle chad to dear old dad.

Chad: Well, I mean, I’m the one that used to sneak him out in my maserati, let him eat pie for dinner, and I never asked him to clean his room, so i don’t think it had much to do with you.

Ej: I’m quite sure it was. At any rate, I took my anger out on you and johnny. I made everything between us adversarial. I inserted myself in johnny’s movie. I insisted that I play john to abigail’s marlena, exploiting my past with abigail just to needle you. It was cruel and unnecessary. Not to mention that I proposed that you and I team up to take dimera from jake, put you as ceo, while all along, I had my own agenda to take the reigns solely in my hands.

Chad: It’s just business.

Ej: No, it was selfish.

Chad: Yeah, kinda sucked.

Ej: And look where it’s gotten me, a son in trouble, gabi hernandez running dimera. I suppose it serves me right.

Chad: Look, johnny’s gonna be fine with our help. As far as dimera, I don’t want gabi running it any more than you do.

Ej: I was hoping you’d say that.

Chad: What do you mean?

Ej: Maybe we should join forces and get gabi out of dimera, take back what’s ours. What do you say, brother of mine?

Kate: Roman, I know that we’re having difficulty reaching lucas and sami, but what makes you think that they’re missing?

Roman: The thing is, nobody’s been able to get ahold of them. Now, spotty reception is one thing, complete radio silence, that is another, so i called shane.

Kate: Because their cells were out of range, you call the isa?

Roman: Sami and lucas’ daughter is out there running around possessed by the devil. Her twin brother is recovering from possession. That is an emergency situation in my book, so I thought they might want to know. Now, I wasn’t worried about them at all until the isa told me it seems like they have just simply dropped off the face of the earth.

Steve: What did you just say?

Seth: If you would allow me to explain?

Steve: Well, that’s up to my wife.

Kayla: Come in, seth. Would you like some coffee?

Seth: I’d love some, thanks.

[Cell phone ringing]

Steve: Okay, this is julie. I better take it. She might have some news about ciara and the baby. Hey, julie, what’s up?

Julie: Oh, steve, thank god you answered. I need you to go to paulina price’s apartment right now, right now. Do you understand? It’s an emergency.

Lani: We need to get help, paulina.

[Phone beeping]

Paulina: Oh, we need an ambulance. The victim is unconscious. There’s a head wound. He’s bleeding. Please hurry. Hang in there, abraham. Help is on the way.

Tr: Lani. Lani. I love you.

Lani: How can you say that after everything you’ve done?

Tr: You’re my daughter, my child. I love you. I forgive you.

[Groans]

Lani: Ray, ray, ray.

[Tense music]

He’s dead. My a1c stayed here,

Kate: So you believe the isa? You think sami and lucas have vanished?

Roman: Kate, we haven’t heard from them in weeks.

Kate: I know, I know, but it’s not like it’s unusual. Okay, they’re free spirits.

Roman: Yeah, well, two of sami’s kids have been possessed by the devil. What if satan decided to do something to make sami and lucas go away?

Kate: Okay, roman, now you’re scaring me.

Roman: Well, I’m just asking the question.

Kate: Look, roman, sami and lucas have been out of town for months. I mean, it’s not like they were caught up in what satan was doing and decided to interfere.

Roman: Yeah, look, I just can’t help thinking about the last time sami took off for months on end, how wrong we got it. We thought when she left town and didn’t say a word, sami was just being sami, doing what sami does, only to find out she had been kidnapped and her life had been in danger that whole time. Is it so far-fetched to think that might have happened again?

Chad: You want to team up with me to take dimera back?

Ej: Now that johnny’s back in town and back in his right mind, he no longer has any desire to take over the company. I can reclaim my shares from him, and if johnny votes with us, belle said that–

Chad: Wait, you already talked to belle about this?

Ej: She was eager to do something to make up for her role in my ousting, or what she thought her role was, especially now that we know that she really wasn’t the one who framed me since she herself was framed by someone else.

Kayla: There you are.

Seth: Thank you. I’m sorry steve had to leave so abruptly.

Kayla: Oh, I’m sure you are. So tell me, seth, what’s going on? Why the sudden 180 on the chief of staff position?

Seth: I’m sure you’ve heard through the grapevine that, after his wedding debacle, craig wesley abruptly resigned as chief of staff and left salem.

Kayla: I heard something to that effect.

Seth: You can see the position this puts me in.

Kayla: Um, desperate.

Seth: In a word, yes. When craig pitched himself for the job, he said he’d be ready on day one. You’re the only other person who fits that description.

Kayla: How flattering?

Seth: Kayla, the truth is, the staff essentially revolted when they learned that dr. Wesley had replaced you. And I’m here to eat crow until i choke on it and beg you, come back to university hospital as chief of staff.

Kayla: I would love to have my job back.

Seth: That is good news.

Kayla: Only, I have one condition.

Julie: Honey, I’m sure we’ll hear from steve in no time, and everything’s gonna be fine.

Julie: Oh, you’re in pain. I’m gonna get a nurse and get you some medication.

Eli: Grandma, look, I’ll be fine, all right? I need to be awake. I gotta have a clear head. Lani left paulina a message. She said that–she was telling paulina that tr was dangerous. Abe, he didn’t know what he was walking in on.

Julie: Why tonight of all nights did I urge abe to go to paulina’s and say he loves her? Just got to believe that tr cares about paulina, cares about his daughter and wouldn’t hurt them, but abe… he thinks of abe as a rival and just wants him out of the way. Oh, god. Oh, please, god, let steve get there before anything terrible happens.

Paulina: Lani, sweetie?

Lani: What happened here, paulina?

Paulina: Ray said he was going to take me away on a romantic weekend, and I left the room to pack. When I came back–I should have known something was up. I thought I’d heard voices, but ray lied to me, tried to hustle me out of here, and that’s when I heard abraham moaning, found him like this. And I knew something was very wrong, and I tried to call 911. Ray grabbed my phone, threatened me, and then you came in.

Lani: Didn’t you get my messages?

Paulina: Your message? No.

Lani: Paulina, it was ray.

Paulina: What?

Lani: Ray, he is the one who shot eli.

Paulina: Who told you that?

Lani: Eli.

Paulina: Eli?

Lani: He’s awake.

Paulina: Oh, well, praise the lord.

Lani: And he remembers everything, paulina. He remembers everything the day that he was shot.

Paulina: But why would ray shoot eli?

Lani: Because he knew too much. Remember beth? She told eli that ray beat her and that he was using drugs their entire relationship.

Paulina: But beth, she told us the opposite. She assured us that ray was a new man.

Lani: She lied.

Paulina: Why would she lie?

Lani: Maybe he threatened her. He wanted to be with you. And he wanted a life with me. So he was willing to do whatever he had to do to keep us from finding out the truth, including–he shot my husband in the head, paulina!

Paulina: Oh, my god.

Lani: And I saw you and ray leaving the hospital together, and I was so afraid for you, paulina, so I left you that message, and I got here as fast as I could, and then I saw my dad unconscious, and I saw ray’s hand raised to hit you, and i just–I don’t know, I just–i lost it, and I–

Paulina: Baby, baby. It’ll be all right.

Lani: Why didn’t I just arrest him? He wasn’t even armed, and–

Paulina: Oh, no, baby, it’ll be all right, it’ll be all right, baby, I’m telling you.

Steve: What the hell happened here?

Paulina: I shot him. I shot ray. If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Kate: So are you saying that you think ej’s behind this? That he kidnapped lucas and sami?

Roman: No. I’m saying we don’t know who kidnapped sami the last time, now that ej has been exonerated.

Kate: Well, he hasn’t exactly been exonerated, roman. His conviction was overturned because of planted evidence. I mean, there was eyewitness testimony there. One of the kidnappers said that he–well, he identified ej as being the man who hired them.

Roman: All true, okay? All true, but still, that never seemed to sit quite right.

Kate: Well, I mean, who else could have done it?

Roman: Ej did point the finger at your son.

Kate: Roman, that was a completely baseless accusation by a lawyer who wanted to undermine lucas’ testimony. I mean, seriously, you really think that lucas could do something like that. He has absolutely zero motive. He loves sami.

Roman: Okay, all right, all right, kate. All right, look. I am just saying there could be other suspects, and that is something we need to keep in mind until we find just where in the hell our kids are.

Chad: You think someone else framed you?

Ej: Of course. Bell was never possessed. Johnny was. He must have been the one who planted that evidence on your laptop so you would stumble across it, then turn me into the police. Later, he copied the files onto belle’s laptop to make it look like she was the one who framed me.

Chad: You know a way to clear ej without incriminating me or lucas?

Kate: I think so.

Chad: Okay, I don’t see how we can pull that off and keep everybody’s hands clean.

Kate: Well, I didn’t mention everyone. I mean, someone’s going to have to take the fall, just not you.

Chad: Okay, I’ll bite, who?

Kate: I say we pin the crime on the devil.

Chad: Johnny did make a play for dimera, so that makes sense.

Ej: And that is all in the past. Belle has drawn up the stock transfer papers to help us make things right. All johnny has to do is sign, and all my original shares revert back to me. I’ll go up and speak with him.

Chad: Whoa, wait, I mean, his mind is filled with worry about allie right now. You sure this is the time to do that?

Ej: It’s not the best time, no, but this move will help us gain access to all of dimera’s resources, so we can be in the best possible position to locate allie and give her the help that she needs. Agreed?

Chad: Yeah, maybe, if you think it’ll bring allie home, sure.

Ej: I’ll go speak with him. I hope that this is the beginning of some healing between you and I, and for our family.

[Cell phone beeps]

[Line trilling]

Chad: Kate, pick up.

Kate: Hello?

Chad: You and I need to talk about what we did to my brother.

Seth: Name your condition, kayla.

Kayla: If you are still expecting me to fire marlena, I won’t do it.

Seth: [Chuckles] The board has rethought that position.

Kayla: Really, what made them change their mind?

Seth: Well, now that the devil has possessed multiple people, dr. Evans’ scandal is so yesterday.

Kayla: Of course.

Seth: And frankly, her popularity amongst the staff is only rivaled by yours. There’s widespread agreement that you and dr. Evans are the finest physicians to ever have been on the staff at university hospital. And I have to agree.

Kayla: Okay, I accept. When would you want me to start?

Seth: How about tonight?

Lani: Paulina, why?

Paulina: The emts and police are on their way.

Steve: Is he dead?

Lani: Yes.

Steve: All right.

Paulina: Oh, maybe abe’s starting to come around.

Steve: Hey, buddy, hey.

Lani: Why did you tell him that you shot tr?

Paulina: You, hush. I know what I’m doing.

Lani: But–

Paulina: No, just go and help steve with your father. Go show him where the first aid kit is. Do it.

Abe: [Groaning]

Steve: Stay still.

[Tense music]

Eli: Why isn’t lani calling? I mean, paulina, abe, hell, even steve?

Julie: I’ll call lani. I’ll call her right now.

[Phone beeps] Straight to voicemail.

Eli: Screw this. I’m not sitting in this hospital waiting–

Julie: Darling, no! No, honey, you can’t! Honey, you can’t get out of bed! Darling!

Trelegy for copd.

Eli: I gotta get to my wife.

Julie: No, honey, no, please. Help, somebody, help me!

Kayla: What’s going on?

Julie: Kayla, thank god.

Kayla: What happened?

Julie: Well, my crazy grandson tried to get out of bed.

Julie: Easy, let’s get you back in bed, come on, come on. There you go.

Eli: I’m fine.

Kayla: Let me help you. You’re all right. Let me get your pulse. Julie, would you get him a glass of water, please?

Julie: Yeah, sure. Oh, kayla, not that I’m not thrilled to see you, but what are you doing here? I thought you–

Kayla: Was fired? Well, I was, but seth reinstated me. There you go.

Julie: Well, he’s not the idiot I took him for then.

Kayla: Yeah, well, I was on my way to see you because i heard you woke up. What are you thinking getting out of bed when you just came out of a coma?

Eli: Lani is in danger.

Julie: That’s the reason that I called steve to check on her.

Kayla: Oh, that’s what that call was about.

Julie: But we haven’t heard a word, not a word from him. Have you?

Kayla: No, I’m sorry. I haven’T.

Steve: Hey, over here, guys. That one’s beyond help.

Paulina: Where are the police?

Busy night, they’re a few minutes behind us.

Paulina: This is all my fault; none of this would have happened if only ray hadn’t tried to worm his way into my life. If I hadn’t left that opening, then–oh, and now poor abraham. Can we go to the hospital with him? I want to be there when he wakes up.

Steve: Lani can go with him. She can give her statement to the police later. I think you should stay here until they arrive.

Paulina: Right.

Lani: Paulina–

Paulina: No, no, you go. Go be with your father. He needs you.

Lani: Yes, but–

Paulina: You go. I’m fine. I can take care of myself. I always have.

Kate: So ej thinks johnny’s the one who framed him. I mean, that’s no surprise. We framed the devil. Everyone thinks it’s the devil. So what’s the problem?

Chad: The problem is that ej is reaching out to me. He wants a fresh start. He wants to be brothers instead of adversaries. He even wants to partner up to reclaim dimera. I mean, if he’s willing to take these steps, then I have to at least meet him halfway.

Kate: Chad, you can’t do that; you can’t tell ej you’re the one who framed him for kidnapping sami. I mean, it will totally implicate lucas.

Chad: Okay, I can do it without implicating lucas.

Kate: Oh, my god, we have been through this before. You tell ej that you’re the one who framed him, what do you think he’s gonna do? Do you think he’s just gonna forgive and forget? Do you think he’s gonna want to just hug it out? Because that is not ej’s style. Okay? You want a fresh start with your brother, well, that’s all gonna go up in flames, and you’re gonna be covered in ashes. Is that what you want?

Chad: What I want is to make things right with my brother.

Kate: Then do that, chad. Just do that, okay? Get your fresh start, but just keep your mouth shut about what you know.

[Tense music]

Lemons.

Kate: Yeah, okay. Well, I have to go. And I really hope you’ll take to heart what I had to say.

Roman: Take what to heart?

Kate: Oh, god, it’s rafe. I was telling that he and his keystone cops need to get their act together and find allie. I mean, she’s been gone so long. Who knows what’s happened?

Roman: Kate, look, I’m frustrated too, okay? But there’s not a damn doubt in my mind that rafe is doing every possible thing he can do.

Kate: Yeah, well, he can do better. What? You drinking coffee at this time of night?

Roman: Decaf. But you know what, I think i am gonna turn in. Not much we can do till daybreak, and I do want to get up bright and early to help search.

Kate: Okay, well, why don’t I close up for you then?

Roman: No, no, that’s all right.

Kate: I want to.

Roman: Too good to me, kate. Thank you.

Kate: Hey, come here. Okay, get some sleep, and I’ll be up in a few minutes.

Ej: Chad, success. Giovanni signed my shares back over to me.

Chad: That’s great.

Ej: I also asked him about those statements showing i paid off the kidnappers.

Chad: What’d he say?

Ej: Unfortunately, my son has no memory of framing me for sami’s kidnapping, which hardly surprises me, given that he doesn’t remember much about what transpired during that time, so I guess we’ll never really know.

Chad: Ej, there’s something I need to tell you.

Kayla: So everything that beth said about tr was a lie?

Julie: Exactly, he is a violent man, a lying, murdering–oh, god, now I’ve upset you. Maybe I shouldn’t have called steve; I couldn’t think of anything else to do.

Kayla: No, no, no, it was the right thing to do. That’s what steve was trained to do. It’s okay.

[Cell phone rings] Wait, sorry. Oh, it’s the er. I’ve got to take this. Dr. Johnson. Yeah, I’ll be right there.

Julie: What is it?

Kayla: There’s an ambulance en route from paulina’s address. The victim is unconscious with a head injury.

Julie: Oh, my god.

Eli: Did they say who it was?

Kayla: No, but I will let you know as soon as I know. I gotta go.

Eli: Damn it.

Julie: What the hell happened over there?

Paulina: Can we cover him with a blanket or something?

Steve: I know it’s not pretty, but we can’t disturb the crime scene.

Paulina: Of course. You think abe’s gonna be okay?

Steve: He’s in good hands, I can tell you that much. You want to tell me what happened here?

Paulina: I already told you. I shot him.

[Radio chatter]

Ma’am, you said you shot this man?

Paulina: Yes, sir, I did.

Steve: He’s dead.

Paulina: And I’m not going to say a word without my lawyer present.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. Like pulsing, electric shocks,

Kate: Lucas, this is your mother, and I hate to be the bearer of bad news, and perhaps you already know, but your daughter, allie, has been possessed by the devil, and no one knows where you and sami are, and roman is starting to ask questions. So if you have done something to sami again… lucas, if I don’t hear from you in 24 hours, I’m telling roman everything.

Ej: What is it?

Chad: I’m sorry for the things that I did as well that contributed to our falling out. I want to be partners again. I want to be brothers again.

Ej: Wouldn’t father be proud and pleased to see his sons coming together in the name of family and the dimera legacy?

[Tense music]

Kayla: Okay, I want you to follow my light with your eyes. Okay, good, very good. Do you know who I am?

Abe: Dr. Kayla johnson.

Kayla: Uh-uh, that’s cheating. No, you got it.

Abe: Oh, wait a minute. You’re not supposed to be here.

Kayla: You know, despite that nasty blow on your head and a mild concussion, I would say that your memory is intact.

Abe: Thank you.

[Laughs]

Kayla: And I was reinstated.

Abe: Well, that’s good news.

Kayla: Yeah, it is, and I’m glad I’m here to help you. Listen, I just want you to know the police are gonna want to talk to you, but not until I’ve medically cleared you, all right?

Abe: Okay.

Kayla: Now, how about before or after the attack, do you have any memories about what happened?

Paulina: What have you done?

Julie: Oh, steve, if you hadn’t been there, it could have been so much worse. I’m just glad I had the presence of mind to call you.

Steve: Excuse me, julie. I gotta go. That looks like a police issued service weapon.

It sure does.

[Tense music]

Eli: Baby, thank god. Are you all right?

Lani: I’m fine.

Eli: What about your dad? How’s abe?

Lani: He regained consciousness in the ambulance. He’ll be okay.

Eli: Honey, look at me, hey. Are you sure you’re okay? You’re covered in blood.

Lani: It’s ray. He’s dead.

Eli: He’s dead? What happened?

Lani: You son of a bitch.

Tr: Lani, baby, I can explain.

Eli: Lani, what happened?

Lani: Paulina said she shot him.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Steffy: It was her. It was sheila. She shot me, and she killed finn.

Deacon: Something’s off with you, sheila.

Sheila: What?

Deacon: The way you’re acting, saying all these crazy things?

Sheila: I’m– I’m not.

Deacon: You said that finn would still be alive, if it weren’t for steffy. What the hell’s that supposed to mean?

Quinn: What’s with paris and all her questions?

Carter: She wanted to know if I was still hung up on you or not.

Quinn: And? Um, you made it clear that there’s nothing going on between us, right?

Carter: Yes, that’s what I told her.

Quinn: Good, because I don’t need her walking around here, stirring up a bunch of trouble.

Carter: She seemed to pick up on a vibe. I don’t think I’m as good at hiding my feelings as I thought.

[ Donna giggling ]

Donna: What are you thinking about? Hm?

Eric: I’m just, uh… just enjoying the quiet.

Donna: Ah. I know, it’s nice, isn’t it?

Eric: Mm hm.

Donna: There’s no drama. No one here to bother us. Hm?

Eric: Oh, yeah.

[ Donna tsk-ing ]

Donna: But I think I know you too well, eric. You’re thinking about quinn, aren’t you?

Carter: Look, I realize nothing can happen between us.

Quinn: No, no. We’ve been down that road before. I almost lost my husband, and my marriage!

Carter: And I almost lost my friendship with eric and ridge, not to mention my position at forrester.

Quinn: Right, exactly. We– there is too much at stake for us to lose– eh. Carter, it’s not like I’m not always going to care about you, or even be attracted to every single thing about you, but, I love my husband. We’re committed to each other. And nothing is ever going to change that.

Eric: You got me. You’re right. I was thinking about quinn.

Donna: Mm hm.

Eric: I’m sorry.

Donna: Oh. No, no, no need to apologize to me. I– I was just thinking about brad pitt, actually. Yeah. Yeah. So I guess that makes us about even so, you know…

Eric: Brad pitt.

Donna: Mm hm.

Eric: Well, I’ll admit that he’s– he’s a pretty handsome fellow, I guess.

Donna: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, I mean, he’s always been my fantasy hall pass.

Eric: Ahuh.

Donna: And I guess, I’m yours. But we’ll keep it our little secret. Okay?

Eric: Okay. I can’t help feeling a little guilty, where quinn is concerned. But, I appreciate you so much. You always manage to bring a smile to my face.

Deacon: How could steffy be responsible? It– that doesn’t even make sense.

Sheila: She’s always causing trouble, deacon. She doesn’t know when to keep her mouth shut.

Deacon: So you think it’s her fault that– that finn was murdered?

Sheila: I think if she’d handled things differently, finn would still be here.

Deacon: How could you even know that?

Sheila: I just do.

[ Scoffing ]

Deacon: You know, sheila, uh the way– the way you’re talking, it’s almost as if you were there that night.

Steffy: It was sheila. It was sheila!

Taylor: Okay, okay, so– so sheila killed her own son, and then she shot you?

Steffy: Mom! Mom, mom, mom, I’m telling you the truth. I am telling you the truth. I– I know I couldn’t remember things for a while, but it is so– it is so, so clear to me now. The shooter, the person that we’ve been looking for, has been, she’s been here the entire time.

Ridge: It’s her? There’s no doubt in your mind?

Steffy: I– I’ve never been more certain about anything in my life. She did it. It was sheila. She pulled the trigger and– and finn saved my life. He jumped in front of the bullet. And she took him away from us. I am going to make her pay for what she’s done! What’s the #1 retinol brand

Carter: You know you’ve grown a lot, quinn. I admire the work you put into bettering yourself and your relationship.

Quinn: I think eric deserves a lot of that credit, you know, for not giving up on us. On me? I’m not saying things are the way they used to be between us, because they certainly aren’T.

Carter: It may take some time.

Quinn: I just have to own what I did. You know, I broke eric’s trust. Something he would never do to me.

Donna: The last thing I ever want to do is complicate your life.

Eric: Well, my emotions are pretty complicated these days, and that’s one of the things that I appreciate so much about you is how uncomplicated you are. Being here with you, doing this, is effortless.

[ Donna chuckling ]

Donna: Well, that’s what I want to be for you. I want to make your life easy and… happy.

Eric: And that’s what this is. That’s what you do for me. You make me so happy.

Deacon: I get that you’ve suffered a huge loss, but so has steffy. The cops, they think this was some kind of robbery gone bad. If they were getting jumped, how could steffy have stopped it?

Sheila: Because she never… listens. She only considers herself. She never was worried about finn or anyone else. She was only thinking about herself.

Deacon: What, you think she mouthed off to the shooter?

Sheila: Oh, she mouthed off, I’m sure of it.

Deacon: I never really thought about that. You know, whether or not they complied with the shooter’s demands, did what he said. Does it– does it really matter now?

Sheila: I’m sure the person that was holding that gun– that it was never their plan to shoot two people.

Deacon: Sheila, you have to realize that there’s the possibility we might never know what happened. The cops, they don’t seem to have any leads. It’s weird, though, the way things went down, it– it just didn’t have to end that tragically.

Sheila: No, it didn’T. I should have been there, to protect finn, instead of him getting shot.

Deacon: Don’t beat yourself up over this. You’re not responsible for what happened to finn.

Steffy: Sheila. She murdered her own son.

Ridge: Of course she did.

Taylor: My god.

Ridge: Her own flesh and blood.

Taylor: How could she do this?

[ Taylor sighing ]

Steffy: She looked at me, and then she– she shot me, as her son lay dead in the alley.

Ridge: Because she’s sick, she’s a psychopath.

Taylor: I– I let her into our lives.

Ridge: Don’t do that. You tried to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Steffy: I don’t– I don’t get it. I don’t get it like, she wanted– she wanted a relationship with hayes and finn.

Taylor: I welcomed her into this home. I– I… I believed that she was changing.

Steffy: Mom! Mom, please do not do this. She had finn fooled too.

[ Taylor gasping ]

Taylor: I should have seen it. I should have seen it. How could I not see this? This is– this is why. This is why she was blaming herself. Because– she’s the reason that finn is dead.

Steffy: Finn is the reason I’m alive, mom. He jumped in front of me, just as she was pulling the trigger. He took the bullet. I’m alive because of finn.

And it’s easier than ever to get

your projects done right .

Carter: You’re lucky to be married to eric, but he is really lucky to have you.

Quinn: Sometimes I question that last part.

Carter: What? Quinn, I can list at least 50 reasons why any man would be grateful to have you.

Quinn: Just 50?

Carter: A 100.

[ Quinn tch-ing ] A thousand, millions.

Quinn: Okay, all right, that’s a lot better.

Carter: Look, I want your marriage to succeed, because I know how much you want it to succeed.

Quinn: I really do.

Carter: I know. And I want you to be happy.

Carter: That’s all I want for you.

Carter: No, no. No, no. We’re not talking about me. We’re talking about you, and how you could strengthen your marriage. Is there anything else you can do on your end?

Quinn: I don’t know. I feel like I’ve been trying to do everything, you know? I’m trying to be softer and– and more present, more vulnerable. I’m trying to be the woman that eric fell in love with. Only better.

Carter: And you’re still sensing some distance from him?

[ Quinn sighing ]

Quinn: I know, he’s busy with work and his… newfound love of pickleball. I don’t know. I mean, I know he’s still in the process of– of forgiving me, I just– I can’t wait for us to be close again.

Carter: Then, talk to him. What’s the worst that can happen, right? Reach out to eric. Show him how much you care.

Deacon: Losing your kid is– it’s hard enough. But convincing yourself that you were to blame, that’s next level torture.

Sheila: Yeah, well, it’s the deepest, darkest feeling in the world.

Deacon: Stop it. Finn would not want you punishing yourself.

Sheila: I am not so sure about that.

Deacon: Come on, he would want you to keep living, to keep going on. It’s not like you’re going to forget him.

Sheila: Finn is all I think about. Every day. Every night. And the manner in which he passed, it didn’t have to be this way. If finn hadn’t shown up in that alley, if– if steffy hadn’t given him a reason to worry–

Deacon: If, if– sheila! There are so many things in this world that we don’t control. Your issues with steffy did not cause this.

Sheila: I wish that were the case, but– I’m always going to feel responsible. I think that’s why it’s just best if I– if I leave L.A., I– I don’t come back.

Steffy: Sheila wanted me dead. But finn stopped her. He died for me.

Ridge: I’m gonna kill this woman.

Taylor: I’m gonna call the police. We’re going to go–

Steffy: No, no, no, no. You have to wait. Wait.

Taylor: What, why?

Steffy: Invite her over here.

Ridge: Steffy.

Steffy: I want to see her face when she’s busted. I want to look her right in the eye, and watch her squirm.

[ Donna moaning ]

Donna: I don’t want to see my honey bear furrowing his brow like that. Your happiness matters, eric. Us being here, it’s– it’s cozy. It’s familiar. It’s beautiful. Okay? Don’t let this eat away at your conscience.

Eric: Na uh. I don’t regret any of this. Being here with you like this, is the best thing that’s happened in my life for a very long time.

Donna: Yeah, but you’re… feeling bad that you’re being unfaithful.

Eric: I’m feeling grateful. Grateful that… I have you with me to make me laugh. You make me laugh till I cry.

[ Donna chuckling ] Your affection. It means so much to me. You’re not too bad to look at, either.

Donna: Really? Huh.

[ Donna laughing ]

Eric: You see how happy you make me?

Quinn: You know what, carter, you’re right.

Carter: Yeah?

Quinn: Yeah, yeah. I am going to take your advice, and I’m going to call eric right now.

Carter: Okay, well, I’ll give you some privacy.

[ Phone ringing ]

Eric: It’s quinn. Quinn?

Quinn: Eric?

Eric, where are you?

Ridge: You want sheila to come here, to the house?

Steffy: Yes.

Taylor: No, sheila’s too dangerous.

Ridge: I agree with your mom, let’s call the police, have her arrested.

Steffy: She will be. Will make sure of it. I just– I need to see her first.

Taylor: Sweetheart, I understand why you think you need to see her, but–

Steffy: Mom, please, just– just call her.

Taylor: And say what?

Steffy: What does sheila want more than anything? To be part of hayes’ life, our family’s life. She’s desperate to be accepted. So we reach out to her, and we offer everything she’s ever wanted. And that’s when we call her out before she’s hauled off to prison for the rest of her miserable life.

Ridge: I don’t think that’s a good idea.

Steffy: Dad, please, I need this. I lost my husband. Hayes lost his father. I need to feel like I’m like I’m– like I’m avenging finn’s death, somehow.

Taylor: What if she has a weapon?

Steffy: No, she’s not– she’s not gonna bring a weapon in, if she knows hayes is here.

Taylor: Okay, I’ll call her.

Steffy: Thank you.

[ Call ringing ]

[ Phone ringing ]

Sheila: It’s taylor.

Deacon: Pick it up. What are you waiting for?

[ Phone ringing ]

Sheila: Hello, taylor.

Taylor: Sheila. I’m glad I caught you.

Sheila: I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to upset steffy, earlier at the house.

Taylor: She’s just trying to come to terms with– with everything that happened. Everything that happened with finn, the– the whole tragedy. Look, I– I know that you’re– you’re dealing with an– an enormous amount of pain and loss as well. And– and you’re missing hayes very much.

Sheila: Of course.

Taylor: He’s your– he’s your grandson. He’s the only part of finn that you have left. So I was thinking it would be a good idea if you– if you came back over to see him.

Sheila: Wait. What? You– you mean that? I– I would love to.

Taylor: Good. Good. I really want you to be here, sheila.

Sheila: You do?

Taylor: Yes. I do, very much. I just want to see you get what you deserve. Finn would want this. We have to honor his memory.

Sheila: You mean that?

Taylor: More than you’ll ever know.

Sheila: You– you have no idea what this means to me.

Taylor: I think I do.

Sheila: I’ll head right over

[ Sheila laughing ] It’s unbelievable! That was– that was taylor, and– and– it looks like I might have an opportunity to play a role in my grandson’s life.

Deacon: That’s awesome. I’m happy for you. Looks like you might not be leaving L.A. After all.

Sheila: Oh!

[ Both laughing ]

Ridge: You’re sure about this?

Steffy: Finn’s the reason you still have a daughter. My kids still have a mother. Because of my husband’s bravery, the sacrifice he made for all of us. I have to do this. I have to face his mother, his murderer. Sheila carter has terrorized her family for far too long. It’s time to put an end to it, once and for all.

Update written by Dustin

Curtis admits having Marshall back in his life was unexpected. TJ notes Marshall leaving is not just Curtis’ loss, because he was just getting to know his grandfather. Curtis says this was Marshall’s choice, but TJ feels Curtis also made a choice to do what he did without any of their opinions. Curtis fills TJ in on what he learned about Marshall. TJ respects his decision to do what he did and hopes Curtis will respect his. TJ refuses to give up on Marshall, and he intends to find him and bring him back.

At the Metro Court Gardens, Carly tells Valentin that his ruse of having Sasha pretend to be Nina’s daughter, and not being honest with her from the get-go, is what cost Nina a relationship with her real daughter. She feels everything that’s happened is really his fault. Valentin is just suggesting it would be best for everyone if they set aside their differences. He thinks she should have compassion for Nina, as she has everything Nina has ever wanted. Carly notes last time she checked, Nina has her husband.

Valentin argues that Nina still has no children, no relationship with her grandchild, and few friends. Even her office space is at Carly’s mercy. Carly notes Nina has defenders, and she is no victim. Valentin points out that Nina’s been exploited by everyone who has said they care about her. He asks if there is no part of her that feels for Nina?

Carly vents, “Nina’s been hurt, so what! You carry on and that’s called life.” Valentin points out Carly has multiple support systems, and Nina only has a few people who care for her, one being Phyllis. Carly knows Phyllis nursed Nina while she was in a coma, but asks if she was there when she gave birth. He asks why she’d need to know that? Carly explains even Harmony felt for Nina and what happened to her. Valentin adds, “And Sonny?” Carly doesn’t know why he feels what he does for Nina and suggests it’s Stockholm Syndrome from all the months they spent together.

Chet meets with Terry for their first official date. He confesses that he should have told her about his legs on Valentine’s Day, and not over texts. She tells him that doesn’t matter to her, and he should be proud of who he is. He admits some women have rejected him because of it. He asks if it was difficult for her to tell him about herself. She was terrified, but it’s how she knew she really liked him and dating a trans woman isn’t something many men consider. He comments if it felt that way it would have been his loss.

They continue to talk and agree to a second date. She laughs that she’s been having such a good time that she forgot about her dust-up at work. She explains she’s gotten into it with a colleague at General Hospital. Chet notes his sister works there and she may know her. He reveals Amy is his sister to a surprised Terry.

At Wyndemere, Esme gets another letter from her nanny Maggie. Thanks to what she wrote her, Maggie believes Esme has tons of friends and she and Spencer are closer than ever. She also is relieved to hear Esme isn’t pursuing a relationship with Ryan. She urges her to focus on school and Spencer, and to be happy. Esme goes into her closet and hides the letter in a shoebox with other letters. She vows she intends to be happy.

At Kelly’s, Cam asks Spencer if his plan is worth the hell he is going through. Spencer admits Esme wants to have sex, and he’s running out of ways to avoid it. Cam feels they are out of options and need to tell Joss and Trina the truth. Spencer won’t do that, so Cam says they must find physical evidence against Esme. Spencer explains it’s not that easy as she’s always hovering. Right now, she’s gone to yoga, and then she’ll be walking through Kelly’s door. Cam urges him to go search for proof and he’ll stall Esme.

Joss and Trina head to the yoga studio for a relaxing class. Rory is there stretching, and Trina says when this trial is over she plans to enjoy life to its fullest. Joss catches her friend staring and asks Trina if she’s enjoying the view. Rory looks their way, and Trina and Rory smile at one another. He approaches them to say hello and relays that he was in the previous class and was just stretching. Joss leaves them to talk.

Esme arrives and spies on Trina and Rory. Rory admits to Trina that he can’t socialize with someone under active investigation, but there are no rules on running into one another. He also says when she beats the charges… Trina cuts him off and responds, “If I beat them.” He knows she will, and then they are free to explore whatever. He eventually departs, and Joss returns. Trina wonders if Joss is trying to hook her up with Rory to keep her mind off Spencer. Joss wants her to have a good guy, not someone who is needy, superficial, and jealous. Trina tells her not to worry, and she gave Spencer and Esme the boot out of the gallery the other day. Joss wonders why they were even there. Trina explains Spencer was working on his restitution, and Esme followed him like the psycho she is.

Joss wonders if Rory can help them with her case, but Trina won’t put him in that position. Joss vents that Esme set them both up and ruined their lives. Joss knows she has to have made a mistake which proves her guilt. When they find it, Joss vows Esme will go to prison where she belongs.

Back at Kelly’s, Esme arrives and asks Cam if Spencer is there. He explains he sent him on a grocery run because they were out of milk. She had something to tell him but guesses she’ll see him at home. Cam tries to delay her and says they should clear the air. He knows he’s said things to her, but Trina is Joss’ best friend and is Joss his girlfriend. Esme wishes she had a boyfriend as loyal as him. Cam assures her that Spencer believes in her, and even accused him and Joss of being in on this with Trina to frame Esme. He says Spencer has her back, and this will all work out for the best. Esme thanks him and gives him a big hug as Joss and Trina enter. Joss yells, “Get your tentacles off my boyfriend!”

At Wyndemere, Spencer takes photos of Esme’s room and then begins to search it. He makes his way into her closet, takes more photos, and starts looking through her shoeboxes. He eventually comes across something.

At Charlie’s, Nina meets up with Ava and reveals she was just strategizing with Scott. She’s ordered Scott to go after Willow. Ava thinks going after Willow right after her mother died is harsh, but Nina feels they took the first shot. Ava assumes this has to do with Smoltz’s article and explains that he asked her to comment on Avery’s birth. Nina rants this is Michael and Willow’s fault, but Ava says this is all public record, and Diane will bring it up in court. Ava didn’t tell him anything, and won’t talk unless called into court. Ava changes the topic and asks how things with her and Sonny are going.

Before she can answer, Nina spots Amy and says hello to her. She asks how her day is going, and Amy moans badly. Nina comments if she can help to let her know. Amy pulls up a chair, and vents about Terry. Nina suggests she think about what Man Landers would advise two women having trouble at work to do. Amy jokes he’d advise they get a drink together, and she goes to the bar.

Ava returns to the topic of Sonny and points out that if Nina marries Sonny then Michael will become her step-child. She advises she take that into consideration before doing anything rash. Nina doesn’t care and declares she’s going after Michael and Willow with everything she has. Nina states she didn’t want this fight, but she’ll come out guns blazing, and Carly better hope she’s not in the line of fire. Carly walks in at that moment, hears Nina, and smirks.

Amy leaves and runs into another nurse outside the bar. She tells Amy that she just saw her brother having drinks with Dr. Randolph and they appeared to be having a good time. Amy is stunned.
