THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

At least it’s not Nicole. That’s all you’ve got to say about the idea that your brother is fathering a child with a woman like Sloane Peterson? No, I know you don’t know her. I’m just telling you that she seems like bad news to me. I just, I don’t want him to end up in the same situation that Brady is in with Kristen, okay?

Yes. Yes. Call him. Honey, look, I’ve gotta go. Uh, John is due home soon. He’s home.

I love you. I’ll talk to you soon. Hello. Good luck.

I didn’t even hear you open the door. I’m still stealth. God, I miss you. I miss you. But that trip to L. A. worked miracles because we’ve got our Abraham back now.

I am so happy to see you. I’m happy to see you. I can’t believe I’m going to see Abe again. I know what you mean. When they wheeled him off the elevator, I, I felt such a sense of relief. I bet. So how’s he doing? Well, we’re going to release him from the hospital today. He finally gets to go home.

Oh. Oh.

Hmm. Oh. I wonder if I should have said, uh, Welcome home, Mr. Mayor. Well, we don’t know if that remembers being the mayor. Oh, you’re right, you’re right. And I’m the only one who calls him Abraham. Maybe, maybe I should have just put Abe on the banner. Oh, does it look a No, no, it’s fine. Everything looks great.

Oh, here I am going on about a banter when you just spent your last day here getting this place fixed up. Roman and Kate actually did most of the work. Oh, I want everything to be perfect for your daddy. And it is.

I can’t remember being so happy. Well, my Abraham’s alive and he’s finally coming home. Oh my

God, Abe! I was here last night, but they said that they were doing all kinds of tests, so I didn’t get to see you for myself. But, it’s really you. It’s really me. I brought these for you. Oh, thank you. Whoa, look at it. They’re a favorite. Wow. Mmm. Mmm. Delicious. Do you remember Bear Claus?

I remember you.

Crazy about Abe, huh? Unbelievable. Wow. But that poor man went through because of that crazy woman. Speaking of crazy women, where the hell is Kristen? She’ll be here. Yeah, yeah. Maybe she lost her phone. Maybe she has no idea that the judge wanted to see us today. Maybe she’ll miss the meeting altogether. Or maybe she just likes to make an entrance.

Or maybe she’ll miss the meeting and the judge will realize how irresponsible she is and then we’ll just keep everything the way it is. Brady, Kristen negotiated this rotten deal. You better believe she’s gonna see it through. The best thing you can do is accept that. Oh my god, I’m right here. You, you are late.

Yes, I was at a wedding and, uh, that’s when I got the call from the judge’s office. It was actually two weddings, my brother and my nephews. Dimitri and Stefan. You’re all about family. Okay. There’s… It’s not a problem here, is there? I mean, Brady and I did sign the request for the shared custody.

You may be seated. I want to thank you for appearing here on such short notice. It’s no problem. Your Honor, I mean, I’d do anything for our daughter. I’m glad to hear that because Rachel’s best interest is my first priority. I’ve looked over your request to amend your current custody arrangement, and I wanted to talk to you about…

Wait, no, no, no. Um, Brady and I want shared custody now. Um, we both signed the papers that you have, and as soon as you approve them, then we can… I’m sorry, Ms. DiMera. I can’t do that.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

What do you think, Theo? Do we have enough? Isn’t my dad supposed to eat all that? No. I just want to have everything he likes here. Um, just in case. In case what? Food can trigger memories, uh, you know? Oh, like personal metal lines. Yeah, that. Excellent example. Abraham could take one bite of the right thing and it could all come back to him.

But what if I’m missing the right thing? I think you got it covered. You sure? I mean, uh, what’s his favorite thing that your mama made? Well, my mom didn’t really cook that much, but um, they loved this clam pizza with red sauce. I will go, I’ll go call and order one. Uh, Paulina? Uh huh, what? Dad didn’t really know who Lonnie and I were, so, I’m just saying.

I don’t care how long it takes. I am not giving up.

Oh wait, and so while we’re here is this. Oh, she’s gonna be so happy that you recognize me. Oh, Chanel. Yes, yes, that’s me. I’m Chanel. I’m your stepdaughter. I know, I know. You came to visit me right after my surgery. You showed me pictures of us on your phone. Yes, of you and Mama on your wedding day. And then you confused Mama with Whitley, that nurse.

And then I was here when you came too. And you were really confused. And that woman, she took advantage of you. But that is all over now. Doesn’t matter anymore because you recognize me. I don’t know. I recognize you from coming to visit me. After my surgery, not before. And that’s, that’s where all my memories start.

Oh.

Look, you seem like a, you seem like a very nice young woman. I’m very sorry. Yeah. Me too.

I’m sorry, your honor, but I don’t see what the problem is here. Um, with all due respect, Rachel’s father has already agreed to shared custody of our daughter. Now, if there’s a question of my fitness, as a parent, it’s with Mr. Black’s fitness.

My fitness? Your honor, my client is a devoted father. I’m not questioning Mr. Black’s feelings. It’s his actions that give me pause. I refer specifically to a police report that states you were recently arrested and charged with aggravated assault against your child’s mother. Your Honor, that was a misunderstanding.

Why don’t you help me understand, Mr. Black? Did you or did you not point a loaded gun at Ms. DiMera in the presence of your child?

Neat and tidy! Your father likes things picked up. Yeah, I heard that a lot when I was a teenager. Everything’s ready for him to come home. Ugh, except me. Ugh. With all the cooking and cleaning and decorating, I, I didn’t take the time to change into something fancy or put on some makeup. Helena, you look perfect just the way you are.

Really? You sure? I am totally sure. And look at all the stuff you’ve done for Dad. You waited with him while he was in the hospital. You never stopped looking for him when he went missing. I mean, this is what he loved you for, Paulina. Your heart. Oh, bless your heart for being such a comfort to me. As you have always been to your father.

No, you know, more than a comfort. A source of pride. And when your dad gets his memory back… He is going to remember how damn proud he is. Hmm. Come here.

I hope it doesn’t make you feel too pressured. You know? Everyone wanting you to remember. Especially Mama. Paulina. The real Paulina. When they told us you drowned. You didn’t see what it did to her. What it did to everyone who loves you. I heard that. Yeah, she was like a, a different person, but she’s herself again, and she is making sure that everything is ready for you when you come home.

She got up at 5 a. m. this morning, and she started cooking and cleaning, and she hates all that, but she didn’t mind it today, because you are coming home to her. I mean, I, uh, I don’t want anyone making a fuss over me. Not Paulina, or you, or my sons, or my, my friends. I mean, they’ve had all this trouble all because of me.

Because of what happened to you. Man, well, you’re just gonna have to deal with the fuss because, uh, Paulina, she is a force of nature and she is crazy in love with you. I’ve been told by a lot of people that… I love her just as much.

You don’t know what I would give. Feel that love right now.

Has he remembered anything at all? No. His memory starts right when he woke up from surgery. Oh, wow. Afraid to have to see all those people telling him how happy they are that he’s alive. And he doesn’t recognize any of them. I know. Marlena thinks that it’s an emotional block. She tried hypnosis, but it didn’t work.

I mean, I know Abe is so frustrated. I mean, he really wants to remember.

So the hypnosis didn’t work? No. Unfortunately, there’s still a lot that we don’t know about the workings of the human brain. Maybe we just need to give him a little more time. Yeah. Maybe that’s right. At least he’s gonna be surrounded by people who really love him now. Yes. And everybody has to be patient.

And they have to accept reality. What reality? It may not be a matter of time. Abe may never get his memory back.

Your Honor. Port is correct, but there are extenuating circumstances here. I can’t think of a single circumstance that excuses your behavior, especially with your daughter in the room. Oh, no, no, no. I didn’t know my daughter was in the room. As a matter of fact, I didn’t know where my daughter was at all.

You see, I had gotten a call that she had run away from camp. And I knew that Kristen was behind that in some way, so I was desperate to make her tell me the truth about it. With a gun? I have learned through experience That you cannot reason with Kristen or appeal to her sense of decency, it just doesn’t work.

If you looked into her background, you would understand. We’re talking about your background now. Your Honor, Ms. DiMera has agreed not to press charges. That is not the point. Then what is the point? This isn’t the first time you’ve committed a crime involving your daughter, is it? You had her kidnapped last year.

No, there were no charges ever brought up. Charges or no charges, that’s what you did, Mr. Black. Your Honor. Rachel’s grandmother Marlena Evans and two other women had come down with this very mysterious virus. Kristen was the only person in the world that knew where this rare orchid was that was the only source of treatment that could save their lives.

An orchid could save their lives? You expect me to believe that? Yes your honor, it’s the truth. The only way to force her hand was to was to scare her. Into saving Marlena’s life. And you used your daughter to do it.

Hey, Doc, I just heard that whoever did this to Abe is in court today. Colin Bedford, yes. That’s right. Yeah. Well, Steve and I, we brought back Whitley. He’s an accomplice who’s from L. A., so he’s enjoying the hospitality of the Salem PD right now. Good work. You know, at least, though, the kid knew that what he did was wrong.

He gave us a full confession. Yeah, I heard he was an actor. That is why Whitley used him. She wanted to pass him off as Eve’s son, Theo. You got this. Look, I know you can handle this without me, bro. Right, right. Yeah, you too. Alright, talk soon. Well, I just finished straightening up the kitchen, putting on a little makeup.

Even though you said I look perfect, bless your heart. You always look beautiful, Polina. Oh, you always know the right thing to say. So, uh, what time does your flight leave, honey? I’m actually going to cancel it. What? I just got off the phone with JJ, told him I’m not going to be back just yet. I want to be here to help you, Thad.

You’ll do no such thing. But Paulina No arguments! Now, as much as I like having you here, you, you need to go back to Johannesburg and close that deal you’re about to make with, uh, your company. It just, it doesn’t feel right going back the same day that Dad’s getting out of the hospital. Theo, darling, darling, as soon as your dad starts to remember you, I promise you.

I will call you, and, uh, he will make it clear to you that he wants you to live your life fully, and even if you’re a thousand miles away, he knows he’s in your heart, just like you’re in his.

Okay? And that lowlife little actor posing as Theo. Confusing Abe more than he already was. I really hope Melinda Trask throws the book at that punk. Well, at least he finally folded. And he told you that Abe was still alive and where he was. I mean, if he hadn’t done that, the police might not have gotten to Whitley’s apartment in time.

Yeah. So what’s the latest update on the nurse of the year? Well, as it turns out, I mean, this is no excuse for her behavior. But she had a, uh, traumatic event last year. How so? Her husband died suddenly. From carbon monoxide poisoning from a malfunctioning space heater. She feels responsible for it. In fact, she hasn’t been able to handle it.

So she kidnapped herself a new husband? Marlena thinks she had a break with reality. And yet she was able to function here as a nurse. Crazy, huh? Yeah. So you really think she had this break? Or did she decide that a stint in Bayview would be easier than doing a hard time in prison? Marlena says she’s not faking it.

Well, you know what? I don’t care how traumatized her crazy nurse king was. The fact is, she had the wherewithal to kidnap Abe and make his friends and family believe that he was dead. She replaced his world with a world full of lies. And worst of all, she might have cost Abe the chance to ever remember who he is.

You need to remember your life here, Abe. I just know it. When you get home, and you see Mama, something is gonna happen. And you are going to remember how much you love her. I sincerely hope you’re right. And if I’m wrong? Well, let me tell you something about your wife. There is no quit in Paulina Price. So she will move heaven and earth to make you remember.

Either that… Or… She’ll just make you fall in love with her all over again.

Hey.

Oh my God. It is so damn good to see you, buddy.

It’s really good to see you.

So here, you’re going home today. That’s what they tell me.

I’m guessing you don’t know who the hell we are. Huh? Uh. I’m supposed to though, right? Hey, don’t you worry about it. We’ll take you any way we can get you. That’s a fact. Alright, Abraham Carver, my name is John Black. And I’m Steve, Steve Johnson. And the three of us, the three of us, Abraham Carver, Steve Johnson, and John Black, the three of us have been good friends for a very long time.

Yeah, the best. And we’re so, we’re so happy to see you, man. We’re really happy.

Hey, partner. Hey. Now, we would have been here last night to hang with you, but we just, we just flew in from L. A. Yeah, we, uh… We chased down that kid who was pretending to be Theo, and we turned him over to the cops. Is, is he in a lot of trouble? Hell yeah, are you kidding me? He lied to the police. You know what he did?

He was the one that told the cops that he saw you walk off the dock, into the water, and you never came up. He’s the one that planted all the evidence. The hospital bracelet, your blood on the dock there, so, so Whitley King could convince everybody that you were dead. But you found her. We sure did.

The, um, woman, uh, your wife, the psychiatrist, I, uh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I heard her name just No, no, no, no. That’s right. Marlena, the psychiatrist is Marlena. I call her Doc. May I see? That’s why she found me. It was because of you. Yeah, we knew there was something bogus about how you supposedly died. I thank God we did, because, partner, you have got a hell of a lot of life left to live.

And we feel really blessed that we’ve been a part of that life. And we will be for years to come. That’s right. All right, now here’s how we’re gonna play this thing here. Steve and I, We’re gonna annoy you, we’re gonna, we’re gonna bore you, we’re going to frustrate you, but most importantly, we’re gonna do our damnedest to remind you.

Until you remember on your own just how much you mean to us.

Well, I hope John and Steve could maybe, you know, spark something in Abe. I mean, nothing has so far. Are you sure it’s okay for Abe to go home today? Well, there’s no reason to keep him. Other than his memory loss, I mean, his head injury is healed. The drugs that Whitley gave him are out of his system. He really has a clean bill of health.

So, physically, he’s okay now. Are you concerned about his mental health?

Look, we all want Abe to remember us. And he doesn’t. So I’m sure that… Must be causing him some pressure I’m just I’m afraid that if he feels pressured he he won’t know where to turn To get some help or support. I bet you two could tell me a whole lot about my life Well, we could And we will when you’re ready to hear it And we got stories.

Well, I’ll tell you, but right now, we just want you to know that you’re safe here. And you’re only going to be surrounded by people who love you and who respect you, Abe. That’s right. Good to know. Yeah. Alright, so listen, we’re going to get out of here, and um, and like you once told me, partner arrest is a weapon.

We’re gonna let you get some rest. And hey, remember, our numbers are in your phone. Steve Johnson, John Black. And you call if you need anything at all. That’s right. We’re gonna catch up, let you get home, get all settled in because trust me, you are in good hands with Paulina. That’s what I’ve heard. My dad is coming home, and I want to spend time with him.

And Theo, honey, you will. But for now, you need to go back to Johannesburg and take care of business. And I promise you, I promise you, I’ll call you the minute he starts to remember things, and then you can come back. The Abraham that we both remember and love would want you to. Are you sure about this? Who do you think you’re talking to?

I don’t do self doubt. Especially with people that I love. So, what if we, we both, we go to the hospital together and you can say your goodbye and I’ll finally be able to bring my man home.

Your Honor, my daughter Rachel was never in any kind of jeopardy whatsoever. She was actually with her uncle Eric and his partner at the time. What bothers me is that you have a pattern of using Rachel against her mother. No. No, that is actually Kristen DiMera’s pattern. And if you looked into her background, you would see that that was the case.

Have you looked into her background? Of course I have. I have reviewed Ms. DiMera’s criminal record and it was unsettling. But, since she received her pardon, her record is clean. Your Honor, she’s the one that took Rachel from camp. She hid her in the attic of the DiMera house, for God’s sake. Your Honor, I had no idea she was there.

That’s what the report says. It seems reasonable to me that given your behavior towards Rachel in the past, that Rachel was hiding from you. That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever… That’s insane that you would even… Sorry. Calm, calm down. Be quiet.

I… As you know, I have had the opportunity to interview Rachel. And her love for her mother is unwavering. That fact and your behavior today, Mr. Black, have convinced me that my ruling is in Rachel’s best interest. I am awarding full custody of the minor child, Rachel Black, To her mother, Kristen

DiMera. This can’t be happening. Your Honor, listen to me. This woman is going to turn my daughter against me. Alright, I don’t care how well behaved she has been since she’s been out of prison, but she has not changed a bit. She will make Rachel’s life miserable, I’m telling you this. I know that’s how you see it.

But your own life is hardly above reproach. You were implicated in the apparent homicide of Philip Kiriakis. Your Honor, if I may address… I am speaking, Counselor. Children Rachel’s age are normally awarded to their mothers. Especially female children. The rulings against Ms. DiMera need to be corrected.

May I ask a question now, Your Honor? You may. Did Rachel tell you that she wants to live with her mother and only her mother? I mean, did she say that she wanted nothing to do with her father? Not in so many words, but her behavior speaks for itself. She tried repeatedly to get to her mother. She went so far as to take a rideshare to Statesville Prison in an apparent attempt to evade Mr.

Black’s control. My ruling stands and it will take effect immediately. Please deliver Rachel to Ms. DeMera by tomorrow. Court is adjourned.

We came here for shared custody, Kristen. Okay, only because I wouldn’t press charges against you for threatening me with a gun.

You know Rachel loves me. You know she needs me in her life. You know that. Brady, I know that. I know how you’re feeling right now. I know what it feels like to be kept from our daughter. Right, so please, tell the judge. Look, I’m not finished. I’m not finished. I’m not finished. I also know what it felt like to watch you try to replace me in Rachel’s life with Chloe Lane.

Oh my God, Chloe. I did not do that. And, uh, you and I don’t agree on much. But we do agree on what’s best for Rachel. Now, I listened to the judge lay out your case against you, and as much as I once loved you, I had to agree with her. Now I’m going to abide by her ruling. You’re going to listen to me now. I am going to abide by her ruling.

And I hope that you do too. And please do not worry, you will get to see your daughter. Your visits will have to be supervised. Of course.

Okay, Kristen, Kristen,

Abraham, I know your mind is all jumbled up right now, but please believe me. Okay. I am your wife and I love you very much. You’re awake. Hey there. My son, Brandon, right? No, um, no, I’m Theo. Hello, Abe. You probably don’t remember me, but I’m Dr. Kayla Johnson. Are you my doctor from before? Yes, I was. But I’m also a very close friend of yours.

And so is my husband, Steve.

Hello,

son. Wait, does that mean No. I’m sorry, I didn’t remember you. Or anyone else yet. You will. Um, I came to say goodbye. I wish I could stay a little bit longer, but I own this small company, and we’re in the middle of these big negotiations, and my partner says I have to be there. Of course you do. But, I am only a phone call away.

So you say the word, and I will fly back. Thank you.

Um, could I, would you mind if I hugged you?

Just so you know, you’re the best father I could ever have.

That’s so nice of you something? Sure.

I’m scared. Of what?

You know, I’ve been told that I have, uh, A full life. Loving wife. Children. Grandchildren. Good friends.

But I’m, uh, I’m afraid that

I might never remember that life.

In your professional opinion, do you think that I should keep Abe here longer? Well, that wouldn’t change anything. Well, I mean, maybe we could protect Abe from the pressures of the people who love him. Well, possibly, but I do think he’ll have a better chance of getting his memory back if he’s at home. I think we have to manage our own expectations and not put too much pressure on Abe.

I’m not so sure Pauline is going to be able to do that. But you know what? I think calling this love is going to be very good for Abe right now. But, patience is not Pauline’s strong suit. Ah! Hey! Somebody!

I’m here to take my Are you going to handle this or am I? Perfect.

I’m so excited to take Abe home! Well, what? What? Why do you look so sad? Oh, oh, I I I’m not sad. Um, I I just, I know you know this, but I just want to remind you that we don’t have any guarantees that Abe is gonna get his memory back. Well, I can make him remember. But it doesn’t work like that. Well, it’s gonna work that way this time.

I am determined. I’m glad that you are determined. And I don’t… I don’t want to discourage you from your task. As if you could. As if I could. I will just remind you that, well, patience. Patience is a way to get what you want. Marlena, I’ll be both patient and determined. I promise you that and I also promise you that I will have my Abraham back.

The Abraham that remembers how much he is loved. Especially by me.

This is the first time you ever said you were scared. But I used to tell you that all the time. Were you afraid a lot? I was. But you helped me. So much. Do you know what you used to say? No. There’s nothing wrong with being afraid. It’s what keeps us alive. But don’t let being afraid stop you from living. Oh, glad I was capable of a bit of wisdom.

More than a bit.

Yeah. Well, if it helped you, then I’m proud of both of us. Me too.

Okay, well, I gotta go, but I will call you all the time. I will look forward to that. And you can call me too. Okay? Whenever you want.

I’ll just remind you that, well, patience. Patience is a way to get what you want.

So! How do you feel about blowing this joint? I would like that very much.

You got any extra room in your hand luggage for some goodies? I will make room. You sure you don’t want me to drive you to the airport? I already got a car service. Don’t you have a bakery to run? So did you see Abe this morning? Yeah, me too. I told him that he can call me anytime, but I don’t think he’s actually going to.

So if he needs me, will you let me know? You have my word. I wouldn’t worry too much though. Mom is going to take real good care of him. Marlena

says that the best way to help Abe is to stop pressuring him to remember. Okay, got it. What was it like to see him? It was hard. But I got a few glimpses of the old Abe. Yeah. He’s alive, sweetness. Our prayers have been answered. Yes, they have.

I made that banner for you this morning. Thank you. Well. This is it. Uh, you’re home.

Anything look familiar to you?

Oh, Brady. Hey kid, what’s wrong? I

lost her.

Judge awarded. Full custody of Rachel too, Kristen.

Is that the ruling that awards me custody? Yes. You’ll get your own copy.

Oh my god. I just can’t believe it. I won. I won and Brady lost. You know, any decent mother would know that Brady’s not the only one who lost today. So did your daughter. Big time.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Welcome one and all. We are here to join this man and this woman, and this man and this woman in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred institution based on trust, love, and mutual respect. Should anyone present see any reason why these two Excuse me, why either of these two out of the four should not be wed.

Speak now or forever hold your peace. Who left that part in?

Well then. Wait a minute!

I have something to say.

So I tell you that Sona and I are having a baby and that I’m happy about it? And all you can say is that at least Nicole’s not the mother? What, what are you supposed to say? How about congratulations? Look, Sammy, I gotta go. Kate and dad are here. Yeah, I’m sure Kate wishes you well, too. Bye. Sorry we’re late, but it’s for a very good read.

Yeah. Abe is coming home from the hospital. We went to help Paulina get everything ready. Well, he’s well enough to come home. That’s great. Best news ever. I’m sure Paulina’s just excited. Oh, she is. She is. The only thing, Abe still has amnesia, so unfortunately he doesn’t recognize, he doesn’t know who she is.

Yeah, but he’s alive and he’s coming home, we’re gonna do everything we can to make sure he recovers his memory, you know, lots of visits and reminders of how much we love him and make sure that he knows everybody’s there for him. Yeah, of course, that’s great, and I’ll do whatever I can to help. I know you will, sir.

Well, I have some good news to share myself.

I’m gonna be a dad.

My test results were already picked up. That’s what it says right here. Well, that’s impossible because I’m Nicole Walker and I did not pick them up. May I see your ID? Seriously, please.

Look, there is obviously a mistake. My baby’s father got a call from Dr. Sorenson’s office saying the test results were ready. And I came right over. So you lost them in what, a matter of 15 minutes? I’m sorry. Sorry isn’t good enough. What the hell happened to my test results?

So there it is in black and white. Nicole really is having Eric’s baby.

I mean, as soon as she sees these results, she’s gonna know the truth.

And it’s all gonna blow up in my face.

Well, this isn’t our expected turn of events. Well, not completely unexpected. What the hell are you doing?

I’m sorry, Gwenny, I can’t let you marry this man. Like

sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

So, slow news. I think the word you’re looking for is pregnant. Are you sure? Yeah, we’re sure. We took a test and we’ve seen her doctor and… We’re happy about it, and I hope you are too. So Sloane didn’t want to be here when you told her? No, she wanted to be here, but she had something she had to take care of.

Okay, don’t panic, don’t panic. So what, Nicole finds out Eric’s the father, I mean… He’s your father too, little angel, and I mean, we’re in love. And Nicole’s ensconced in a mansion. I mean, It’s a stupid piece of paper. It doesn’t mean we’re gonna lose him.

Or

does it? Is it possible the father picked up the results himself? No, he’s at a wedding. Well, I’m sorry, I don’t know what happened to them, but if you wait here, I’ll print out another copy for you. Ho ho, Nicole’s missing all the fun. I wonder what’s keeping her. Dammit, Matty, what are you doing? Look, I just think I know what you think.

In fact, I’ve heard nothing but what you think about Dimitri for the past few weeks now. And none of it’s consistent. Excuse me? One minute it’s, don’t marry him, and the next minute it’s, oh, you’re gonna be so happy together. I know, I know, I’m sorry. Excuse me, remember us? Hey, the OG bride and groom here. I didn’t want a double wedding in the first place.

I certainly did not want this psycho drama. I’m so sorry. No, it’s not your fault, it’s his fault. Please stop sniveling or get out, because I’m getting married to Stefan, right here, right now. No. Look, Mattie, Tell me. Come on, tell me. Just talk to me. Just tell me what’s wrong.

Thank you. But printing out a copy doesn’t explain what happened to the original genetic test results, that they’re kind of private on personal. Um, my colleague just went on a break. Let me see if I can track her down and get some answers. Yeah, okay. You do that, and you might want to tell her to forgo her break because the baby’s father is EJ DiMera.

No. He’s a certain amount of clout in this town. Tell me.

Here. I’m gonna call Nicole. Something’s wrong. I’ll be back. Gabby, I’m sorry. Really, I am. Not as sorry as you’re gonna be. Talk to me. Look, it’s just, you’re my best friend. You’re my only friend. But if you are her friend, then you will trust her and her decision. Now, I know that you don’t trust me, but I promise you I am not going to hurt her.

I will make sure he keeps his word. Leo, I know how much you love Gwen, and vice versa, but you will always be a part of her life, which means that you and I are kind of stuck with each other, and I’m hoping that someday, even we could be friends. Heartwarming. Now can we shut up and get along with this thing?

And I know that this marriage is going to enrich all our lives.

Your blessing means so much to me.

Okay. Blessings upon blessings. Thank you. Actually, that means a lot. No, actually what that means is that we can proceed with this wedding. Now, please, one more time with feeling. Right, um, so where was I? Um, oh yes, um, if anyone for any reason Okay, no, no one does. Just move on. Gabriella and Stephan, Gwen and, remind me of your name.

Dimitri. Dimitri. Marriage is a commitment to life. The best that two people can offer. It brings out growth and development unlike any other relationship. It is a physical and an emotional relationship that is promised for a lifetime.

Thanks, but there’s no point. I’m sure it’ll get… Straighten out soon. Or else I’m going to kill someone. Well, This is, uh, Certainly unexpected. Actually, it was planned. Really? You want the details? No, I don’t. Eric, I’m sorry, I’m just surprised. And not pleasantly. You know, usually with an announcement like this, I would have expected to hear Congratulations, I’m really thrilled for you, son.

For the record. I’m told that I’ll be a grandfather again and I’m happy for you because I know how much you wanted to be a father. Yeah, well that was carefully worded. Oh, come on Eric, you know, Sloane is not my favorite person. Because she didn’t like the chowder? No, because she terrorized Paulina and Chanel and then gave her damn playbook to her demented brother.

Alright, honey. And he’s the reason why my best friend Abe has no idea who in the hell he is. So I apologize. I’m so sorry. I’m so damn sorry. Yeah, right. Yeah, well, I thought you were just having a fling with that woman, not having a baby with her. Now you are. That’s a hell of a commitment. What the hell changed, Eric?

That dream, that nightmare, this is coming true. Eric’s gonna find out that Nicole and I are both having his baby. And he’s gonna go right back to Nicole. She’s probably on the way to pick these up right now. There’s only one thing I can do.

Gabriela and Stefan, have you come here to enter into marriage without coercion, freely, and wholeheartedly? We have. Gwen and Dimitri, have you come here to enter into marriage? Without coercion, freely, and wholeheartedly? I have. Yes. I have.

Do you, Stefan, take Gabriela to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, from this day forward till death do you part?

Si. Quiero. I do. Do you, Gabriela, take Stefan To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, from this day forward till death do you part. I do.

By the power vested in me. I now pronounce you husbands and wives. You may now kiss your wife.

Stefan, you may now kiss your wife. I

know you don’t approve of me and Sloan, and you believe that we’re doing this all for the wrong reasons. But once upon a time ago, you had to welcome E. J. DeMere into the family, and I’m sorry, Kate, but let’s not forget about Lucas who frickin kidnapped Sammy. Okay, no, that’s fair. And, Eric, I did encourage you and Sloane to have a baby, if you recall.

You did? Yes, I did. I encouraged them both to go ahead and do it. Life is short. Seize the day and all of that. I would be a hypocrite if I expressed disapproval right now. So, I want you to know, I’m very happy for you. Thank you, Kate. I really appreciate that. Unfortunately, my father doesn’t feel the same way you do.

Don’t go away then!

Ma always said that every child is a blessing, and what could be better than a new breed? That’s right. I know this baby is going to be loved, and it’s going to be cherished, and it’s going to be spoiled like crazy. So congratulations, Eric. To you, and to your child. Who will be as lucky as hell to have the best father any kid could ever ask for.

Congratulations.

Talk

to my colleague. She said she gave the test results to Nicole Walker. No, she didn’t. I am Nicole Walker. You saw my freaking ID. Uh, so who the hell did she give it to? Me. Thank you,

Dad, for coming around. Yeah, well… Thanks to Kate for being happy for you and for me remembering Ma’s words. Look, I admit that I had misgivings when I first heard, but this is obviously something you want very badly. So I want it for you.

Especially since I know how disappointed you were when Jada decided to Terminate her pregnancy. Yeah, I was, but… Sloane and I’s decision to have a baby had nothing to do with that. Or Nicole having EJ’s child. Dad, you know it’s been a hard year for me, and Sloane’s been through it all with me. Does… Does Gina know about the baby?

She does. I, uh… I told her earlier today, and she took the news very well. But she and I have both moved on.

Boy, that Leo, he, he really likes attention, huh? Oh, yeah. But I will say that by Salem standards, the wedding was relatively drama free. Couldn’t you

have given me a drama queen at my wedding.

Why did you do that? I’m gonna leave. No, please. You did what you thought was right. And it would kill me to know that the two of you stopped being friends because of me.

Thank

you. So, how long do you think they’ll last? Gabby and Steph?

Well, going by their statistics, somewhere south of six months. You want to play the odds? I’m trying to be a supportive brother. You’re no fun. I noticed that Gabby is wearing Daphne DiMera’s sapphire necklace. I assume you gave it to her? I loaned it. So I’m not the only one trying to make money. I was feeling charitable, since the good news.

Now that you share joint custody of Rachel. Mm hmm. I also want Gabby to see me as a friend, not an enemy. If you said the same thing about Megan and look how that turned out. Stefan followed your advice and agreed to a double wedding. He figured it was no skin off his nose to ingratiate himself with our nephew.

Of course, you didn’t foresee Leo Starr’s nonsense. Don’t suppose you know what that’s about? I have no idea.

Gabby, you look beautiful. Especially when you were yelling at Leo. Can you believe that nincompoop? You know, it looks like you’ll be in a body bag by now. Well, overall, I feel like the wedding was beautiful. I thought so too. Thank you. And what was up with Leo? You know what? It doesn’t even matter. Because what I remember is saying I do, and the justice of the piecing, and your man and wife.

That’s all that matters. Definitely. All that matters.

Hey, hey, hey. Oh, I’m so sorry. Hey, Jay, I’m sorry. Um, don’t worry about it. It’s okay. Uh, anyway, I, uh, heard you’re having a baby, so congratulations. Uh, thank you. And, uh, Nicole, is she coming back? Because I’d like to congratulate her in person. Uh, I hope so. Um, Excuse me. Thank you. Thank you again. Yep. So, you want to congratulate Nicole?

Taking the high road. But, you know, since she’s not here, I’ve actually had enough Salem weddings for one day, so, uh, maybe we should just, uh, take off. I don’t think Gabby would mind. Yeah, I don’t think she would either. Let’s go. You

sure you’re protected?

Why do you have my test results? Well, Eric and I are having genetic testing done too. So I came to see if our results are ready and she must have just given me yours by mistake.

It’s open. Look, I’ve been having a lot of anxiety. I just, I’m sorry. I didn’t even look at the envelope to check the name.

Thank God. What is it? Um, no genetic anomalies. That’s wonderful. Yeah, I can’t wait to tell EJ that, uh, our baby’s fine.

Okay, that should do it. Presto change o! No mention of EJ not being a genetic match for Nicole’s baby.

I guess I don’t need to print another copy after all.

So, man and wife again. Congratulations. Thank you, and thanks for standing up for me today. Oh, I didn’t do much. You took the job. That means a lot. And I have to say, I’m very happy about joining this family again. I know you don’t feel the same way, but Stefan wants to be close to his brother, so maybe we could have a fresh start.

I’d like that.

Aren’t you gonna toss your bouquet? Shall I aim it in your direction? Thanks, but I still have some wild oats to sow. You know, I was thinking it would probably be a bit more civilized, seeing as we’ve got two bouquets and two single women here, that I should just give mine to Jada. Have you seen where she went?

We need to talk. Have you seen Jada?

Um, I think she and Wraith, uh, snuck out. Oh, alright then. Here you go. What is this for? Well, you are the one single woman left here. Auntie Kristen. Please do not call me that. I am your niece. Okay, sorry, it’s the last time. Mm hmm, alright. I wonder if Leo’s feelings for Dimitri have been, um… But

to bed, shall we say? Well, Dimitri’s really been great. He’s, um, really smoothing things out with Leo. Actually,

I’m back. Oh, Miss Walker. Did you get everything straightened out with the test results? Yes, we did. I’m sorry. I can’t imagine. All’s well that ends well, right? Did you park in the garage? Let me walk you out. Come. Okay.

What are you doing with that? Gwen gave it to me. Since I am the only single woman in attendance. I hope Nicole doesn’t have her heart set on being the next bride. Well, she hasn’t mentioned it, but… Who knows? Hmm. What the hell was what? Oh, you know damn well what I’m talking about. That sudden attack of conscience.

And you know damn well it wasn’t sudden. My conscience has been giving me splitting headaches since we hooked up. Not to mention acid reflux and acute insomnia. And I have been telling you ever since we hooked up that Gwen is going to be fine, okay? I’m going to inherit millions of dollars. And the three of us are going to live happily ever after.

So you get to have your cake and eat it too? Share and share alike. I don’t want any. Oh, come on.

Just eat it. Come on. It’s good, huh? It’s a little sweet. Cake is supposed to be sweet. But you, uh, you got a little too much of it. I see. You got it? Yeah, I think I got it. What’s going on here?

Whoa! Well, look at you two. You look fabulous. Well, thank you. This came from Gabby’s wedding. Ah, did you catch the bouquet? Uh, they didn’t throw them. They, them, what do you mean? Well, it turned into a double wedding at the last minute. Yeah. Dimitri von Leutzner married Gwen Rischek. Well, that sounds like a marriage created in heaven for the Macbeths.

Yeah. Anyway, we did not mean to interrupt, so if you’ll excuse us. Of course. Enjoy the rest of your evening. Thank you. You too. All right. Good to see you two. I think they make an adorable couple.

Jane looks happy. Yeah, I think she does. So, how far along is Sloan? Uh, just a few weeks. I’m surprised you’re telling people so early. Well, why not? I mean, she’s young and she’s healthy. I’m sure the whole thing is going to be smooth sailing. So?

What are You caught us. We were working on the surprise for the wedding. Oh, right. The surprise. Well, now that we’re married, I finally get to hear what that is. So, what’s the big surprise? What perfect timing. I love surprises.

So, what is it?

I think we should take this party upstairs. It’s our wedding reception. I don’t think anyone’s going to miss us. Yeah, and actually, who cares if they do?

Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be nosy. Oh, no, no, no, not at all. Uh, you’ll all know soon enough, I suppose. I was, I was just asking Leo here for his advice on our honeymoon. And he told me that, well, that you have always wanted to go to… Iceland! Iceland, Iceland. Oh, how do you remember it? Iceland. Oh, the blue lagoons and the ice caves.

The um, the land of fire and ice. That’s the documentary that sparked my interest. Oh, you are so thoughtful. You’re so generous, and I love you so much. Oh! Well, I think that’s my cue to leave. Mine, too.

Nicole, thank God. I was about to send out a search party. Did you finally get the test results? Yes. And they were delayed because, never gonna believe why. The nurse accidentally gave them to Sloan Peterson.

Hey, you made it. Sloan, come over. We’re toasting a new baby. They’re happy for us. Can I get you something? You know, a burger, something to drink? Non alcoholic, of course. No, no, nothing. Thank you. What’s wrong? Is your brother okay? Uh, no, I actually, I never went and saw my brother. Eric, there’s something I need to, to tell you.

For coming with me today. Thanks for having me. I had a really nice time. I know, even though you didn’t get to read your book. Well, the day is still young.

Wanna come in for a little while?

Simone, what is it?

I lied to you about going to see my brother.

I was feeling really anxious after I had that nightmare this morning. Like something could be wrong with the baby. So I went to the hospital, and I just wanted to see if our test results were ready. Why didn’t you tell me? I would have gone with you. Because I knew that you were having lunch with your dad and Kate, and I didn’t want you to worry, too.

Didn’t the doctor say it was going to take a few days? Yes, and the results weren’t ready, but… Just, I’m feeling a lot better now. You are? Yeah. See, I, I ran into Nicole while I was there. And, um, the doctor put her results on Rush, and she found out everything’s okay with the baby. That’s great. I’m sure she and EJ are happy.

Yeah. And I think just hearing her, you know, have positive news about her baby, it made me just I feel really good about ours, and I just, I know everything’s gonna be okay now.

It’s good news, EJ.

Oh, thank God. It’s, it’s been hard to believe that everything’s gonna be okay. But now it’s starting to seem real. Uh, we’re gonna have a baby. Our

perfect little miracle. A miracle indeed. And now, we can stop worrying and enjoy the ride.

Congratulations. Thank you. And once you get your inheritance after your pending birthday, I’m sure you won’t forget your Aunt Kristen. Of course not. Good. And a word to the wise, I wouldn’t consider changing my name. Dimitri DiMera to alliterative.

No. No, excuse me. Hello. Well, why would the judge wanna see me? What about Rachel’s custody? Okay, I’ll be right there. So I would like to quote the bard and say, you know, uh, parting is such sweet sorrow, but right now it feels about as sweet as a horseradish pickle. What Gwen? I’m already feeling bereft of you.

Will you just stop with the melodrama already? The Sailor Moon is just three miles away. Who’s gonna wake me up singing in the shower off key every morning? Trust me, if you are late, you will hear from me. And you’re not gonna miss me at all, are you? Oh, come on. Of course I am. I’m gonna miss you terribly.

Don’t worry. We’ll be seeing plenty of Leo, I’m sure. We’ll have him over all the time. Yes, absolutely. Well, I suppose I wouldn’t mind spending more time at Chez Demure if they’ve got a basement full of this stuff. Let’s go open another bottle. Yeah, I’m gonna get you some water first.

Oh, Stefan, wait, when did you do this?

How? I have my ways. Oh, Stefan, this is so romantic. Thank you, but, uh, do you mind if I? Oh, I don’t mind at all. I love you, Mrs. DiMera. Calm my heart. Find body and soul.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Reeve. Uh, hi. Uh, listen, um, I know you’re practically running Salem PD at this point, but, um, today is usually your day off, so I was just wondering if you were free. Uh, yeah, actually I am. No hot plans? Nope. You know, uh, Talia, she’s out doing community service, so I figured I’d stay in, relax, you know, read big little lies, and um, meditate.

Uh huh. Okay. Why? Did you have something else in

mind? Just wondering if maybe you wanted to go to a wedding? Because my sister’s getting married, and um… I could use a plus one.

Good

morning, beautiful. I mean, what? You know I love breakfast in bed. Happy wedding day. Happy anniversary. Happy first day of the rest of

my life.

Matty, your phone is blowing up. It’s rather distracting, babe. Just put it on vibrate, I’ll be out in a sec.

Mattie of Honor, at your service. What do you think? Too much? Yeah, fine. Where are you? Why? You didn’t even look at me! I’m sorry, I just can’t seem to tear my eyes away from these… Libidinous turns of phrase, or shall I say sexed messages from your new lover, I presume.

Eric? Hey, what’s wrong? What happened?

I spoke to Nicole.

She needs you. Get the results back from the genetic testing.

Okay, is that it’s not EJ’s kid. What? I mean, how is that even possible? See, the thing is, Nicole, she hasn’t been with anybody besides me and EJ. Which obviously makes the kid mine. But you already knew that! Didn’t you?

You swapped my cheeks yourself. See, the results conclusively said that I was not the father, which turns out that I am. You could be the only one who screwed with the test. You tried to keep me away from knowing that it’s my kid. You’re a lying bitch!

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Dear baby, please don’t be mad at me. No, I just, I was Don’t! But I was terrified whenever I found out Nicole was pregnant that she would leave me for her. Where are you going? I don’t want to be with you. I don’t want to be anywhere near you. But our baby! I’m pregnant! you money. I don’t want money. I want you.

Yeah, well, I don’t want you. I don’t want to be anywhere near you. You know what, Nicole? It was my first love. And our baby is going to be born into this world with love.

And on the other hand, I never really want anything to do with you. Eric, but our baby!

Baby? it?

Are you alright? Oh!

Hey! Hello, hello. I was just reading this article about Abe and Lonnie rescuing him. I can’t believe he was kidnapped by some delusional nurse. He’s actually still alive. I know. It is quite literally unbelievable. Not to mention absolutely brilliant news. Uh huh. And, I have some news of my own. Really? Mm hmm.

Dr. Sorensen’s office just phoned. The results of the genetic testing are in. Already? Mm hmm. And we just had those done yesterday. I greased the wheels a bit. Put it on the fast track for analysis, since I knew you were anxious to get the results. Mm hmm, yeah. So, is everything alright with the baby?

Listen, Gweny, I can explain. You don’t owe me an explanation. And I’m sorry I read your text, but you did ask me to turn your ringer off and they were all sort of popping up all over the screen. Right. That happens. But now, I can’t help but wonder, who is this mystery man who’s lying in bed naked waiting for you?

Are you up to some roleplay perhaps? Let me guess. You’re a cabana boy who accidentally walks into the wrong bungalow. Actually, that’s not bad. Obviously you don’t know who those naughty texts were from, right? No, I mean, how could I? According to your contacts, his initials are MP. Ah, yes, MP. Matthew Perry.

What? The actor from Friends? What, who, Chandler? No, no, it’s a guy that I met on matchup. com. Ross is way more my type anyway. Yeah, actually I can see that Well, that’s wonderful Matty. So when did you meet this bloke? Oh a couple of days ago Did you? Well, I was under the impression that you and I were best friends.

We are. Well, then why didn’t you mention him to me? Because it was you know, just a hookup. I didn’t wanna make a thing out of it and because truthfully I Might be catching some feelings, I don’t want to jinx it. Okay. So what are you waiting for, then? Spill, tell me, is he incredibly hot? Oh, you have no idea.

He is a certified level 3 smoke show. Well, good for you, Matty. Well done. So… You gonna go off to see M. P., be that naughty little cabana boy with the level 3 smoke show? Hmm, well, he says the only thing missing is me. No, M. P. can just hang out by himself for a little while. Really? He seems pretty desperate to see you.

Hey, listen to me. My best friend in the entire world is getting married today, which means today is a very important day for me too. The only person I am focused on right now is you. You’re beautiful, right? Um,

You know what I was thinking this morning? That with all your, uh, pillow drool, and the way that your mouth hangs open when you sleep, and you make that adorable little snorting sound. Oh yeah? It is, it is, it’s adorable. Despite all that, You are still the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on.

And my soon to you, my soon to be husband. I am more in love with you than ever. You know, when my alarm went off, and there you were right next

to me, I I don’t know, I thought about it and it’s just silly to worry about the whole don’t see the bride before the wedding thing. I mean, what could happen to us that hasn’t already happened, right? True, true. Oh, Gabby, I cannot wait for you to be my wife

again. And I promise you this time, the death do us part. Part? It’s for real.

So… Gabby’s getting married today? Was this like a sudden decision? No, no, no, no, no. I’ve known for a few weeks now, but But, uh, Yeah, I mean, I didn’t invite you obviously because Yeah, you’re keeping our relationship on the DM. Yeah, but Yeah, but, uh, now that they’ve taken my badge, there’s really no point in keeping up appearances, is there?

I mean, are you sure about that? You know, the acting mayor did fire you, and now that Abe’s been found alive, there’s a real possibility that he can reinstate you. Yeah. Yeah, and when he comes back to the job, he’s not exactly going to be gung ho on us dating. Yeah. So do you really think that this is a good time for us to go public?

Abe back on the job? Not sure that’s gonna happen anytime soon. I mean, not with him struggling with amnesia. And even if Ape does come back, and he’s mayor again, and he wants to reinstate me, I gotta say, being let go, it’s, um, it’s been oddly liberating. Really? Mm hmm. How so? Well, it’s out of the obvious.

You know, that gives me proper time to write my life’s memoir and, uh, to have a midlife crisis. Um, well, it’s made me think about things. It’s made me think, like, my job isn’t necessarily the most important thing in my life. And if I had to choose between being commissioner of Salem PD or being with you, I’d choose you.

That’s very sweet of you to say. But, I mean, you just got out of a divorce, and… Oh, oh, oh, I see. You think this is some sort of a rebound thing, huh? Is that it? Alright, you’re not wrong. I haven’t exactly had the best luck with relationships. That is true. I did think about… Giving up on them, and on love, and then I met you.

This feels different. Feels right.

I feel the same to me too.

Good. Please head that out. Your sister’s not coming back for hmm. Hours.

Whoa, there I, uh.

I think you better open this. Right now? Yeah, now, before you get too carried away. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary, happy anniversary, happy anniversary, and another happy anniversary. Why five? Because we were robbed of our first four, and I figured I might as well play a little catch up. So, for the first anniversary, it’s traditional to give paper.

And for the second, cotton. The third, leather. And then the fourth, fresh fruit and flowers. And for the fifth, wood. This is so sweet and thoughtful, but I feel bad I don’t have anything for you. I think you do. Are

you sure you don’t want to dash over to CMP for a quickie? I’m sure you have time. No, I’m gonna go tell that snake charmer to keep a serpent in his pants. He’s for real. Poor MP, I’m sure he’s going to be very disappointed, I’m

sure.

You know, they say that it’s in bad form to text with your boyfriend on your wedding day when you’re about to marry the woman of your dreams. You’re knocking, Kristen. Hmm. Yeah, well, the door was open. So. This boyfriend of yours. Leo Stark is not my boyfriend. Okay, well, your paramour, your boy toy, whatever you want to call him.

Like I said, I’m just I need him thinking that I’m interested so I do not lose this inheritance. Ah, okay, right. Since, uh, I am so looking forward to a cut of the inheritance, I will not tell anyone that my daughter caught you and that little twerp in Flagrante. However, May I remind you, if you have not forgotten, that…

That little twerp is your fiancé Gwen’s best friend. Yes. I know. And, uh, has it occurred to you that the two of them are as thick as thieves and will talk about everything and anything? Leo is not going to tell her anything. Why the hell would he? Oh my god. Because… She is, I’m guessing, not only his best friend, but his most trusted confidant.

And, uh, one day, he will spill the beans. And when he does, dear nephew, you will

be screwed. And not in a good way. So, Official privileges at University Hospital? No, she does not. And since she flew back home last night, we’re to pick up the results ourselves. But she assured me they’d be self explanatory and that if we need to give her a call, with any questions or concerns, we’re free to do so.

I see.

There is no reason to believe that something is wrong. But if there is some concern over our genetic history, we’re more than prepared to deal with it. Together. And if there isn’t, we can rest easy. Right. So, why don’t we go to the hospital and pick up the results now? Shall we? It’s the baby. The baby with?

What do you mean? I just, I had a nightmare. It was, something terribly wrong happened. I don’t know if the testing hasn’t revved up your anxiety. No, it’s not that. I just, I love this baby so much already. Okay. And you’re really scaring me so bad. Alright, shh. Come here. Just relax. Why don’t you close your eyes, all right?

Just take some big, deep breaths, and everything’s gonna be fine, I promise. I mean, you can always try counting the sheen.

Better? Mm

hmm. I’m gonna be fine. I’m Okay. You relax.

It’s not our test results that I’m worried about. It’s EJ Nicole’s.

What will we do if they show that… Our babies.

Eric’s. Man, I could lie here all day. Me too. So, when’s the wedding? Eleven. Oh, we better get going. Wait, we? Does that mean you’re going? Of course I’ll go.

I want to be with you every chance I can get. Okay.

So, where is it? What’s the dress code? Well, it’s at the DiMera mansion, and uh, you can basically wear whatever you want. Mom jeans, wine shirt, my sister does not care. As long as you’re going to be on her side of the aisle, she’ll be happy. Right, right. You know, I can’t help but wonder how many DiMeras must be living in that mansion now.

Oh my God. EJ and Nicole, they’re going to be there, aren’t they? Well, yeah, probably. I mean, it is his brother that’s getting married. Yeah. You okay with that? No, I’m fine with it. The question is, are you? I mean, I know how upset you were yesterday when you found out about Nicole’s pregnancy. Oh, I was shocked.

Yes. Upset? No. No, I’m not. You know, as far as I’m concerned, EJ and Nicole deserve each other, I don’t give a damn. Yeah. What about you, though? Remember all those things that Nicole said when she found out you were pregnant? Yeah, but that was my choice to make. I did what was right for me. I mean, as far as Nicole Walker is concerned, I don’t care.

And I would feel a little resentment if it was Eric that was gonna be the father of that child, but it’s not. It’s EJ’s. Yeah. And quite frankly, the only person I feel sorry for is that child. Right?

Oh, I don’t know why I’m such a bundle of nerves. Oh, you shouldn’t be. It’s not like either one of us has a family history of genetic disorders. Unless being a screw up is in the DNA? Oh, asking for a friend, of course. No, and you can tell your friend… I don’t think that can be passed down. So, shall we? Where are you two going?

Uh, we’re going to the hospital to pick up some lab results. Aren’t you, uh, forgetting something? Ta da da da! Your wedding, yes, yes, yes, of course. We wouldn’t miss it for the world. We won’t be long. Okay. Look, EJ, I… I know I didn’t get to ask you this formally, to be my best man, but… For a good reason. Okay, just…

You see, I don’t have anybody else to help me get ready. And, I know you and I have had our ups and downs, but I’m hoping this most recent truce can be more of a permanent detente, and we can put this Cain and Abel crap behind us. That is a lovely sentiment, and I too am hopeful, uh, unfortunately, I’m not.

No, no, no, you know what, why don’t, why don’t you stay and help Stefan? But, I, I thought that this is important, the man’s getting married today. I can go to the hospital myself. Yes, I’m sure and I’ll be back in time to get ready. I mean, if you’re really okay with it. I am. Now, you fulfill your best man duties, and I will be back soon with good news, I’m sure.

Mm hmm. Okay? Definitely good news. Mwah. Okay. Okay.

I’m calming down, I’m calming down for you, little one, because I know that panicking isn’t good for you. Yes, that’s right. Mm. Mm. If any luck, EJ will be the father of that baby. What do you say? Should we find out? You talking to yourself? Oh, to the baby, actually. Couldn’t sleep. Oh, I’m sorry. Hey, you know what I was thinking?

You should come down to the pub with me. I mean, since I told Brady yesterday about the baby and I think it’s time that I share it with my dad and Kate, too. And, you know, you can join us for lunch. It would be great. Oh. I know I’d love to, but I just, I can’t. I promised my brother that I would spend some time with him before he began serving his time, and you know, he was a wreck yesterday after the hearing.

Okay, I mean, I understand. But give my love to Kate and your dad, okay? Of course I will. I will understand. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah.

Who is it? It’s Kristen. May I come in? Uh, sure.

I brought you something. It’s a family heirloom. It’s old. It twinkles blue. Well, I mean, someone probably swiped it from the lost and found on the Titanic. Meaning, it is very, very old. Yeah, I got it. I just wondered if you wanted to wear it today. Why? Why? Well, because we’re going to be family. And you have gone out of your way to be nice to me since your oh so romantic reunion with my brother.

I know it’s probably because you just needed support with the DiMera board. And also, I, I figured you didn’t have a maid of honor, so I just wanted to say I was available. You know, I’m studying your face, looking for the poker tell, trying to figure out if you have an ulterior motive. No, my only motive is to forge a friendship with you, my soon to be sister in law.

I suppose I, uh… Because I’m getting shared custody with Rachel, I’m feeling rather charitable.

I’m really happy to hear about your daughter, Kristen. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. Uh, so, um, would you like me to put this on? Sure. Um, thank you. Sure. Yeah.

Wow.

Oh, look who’s dressed to the nines for no apparent reason. Either you are auditioning to be the next Bachelor, in which case good luck, or you didn’t get the memo. You’re not invited to the wedding. What wedding? Mine. I’m getting married this morning. Well, what a coincidence. So am I. You’re kidding. No, no, no, I’m not kidding.

And, uh, well, I assume you’re having the ceremony right here. You’re assuming right. Well then, another coincidence. So am I. Well,

I suppose I ought to get into my dress if I don’t want to be late to my own wedding. Ah, Gwenny, I can’t believe you’re moving out. Leaving me alone in this dark, low ceilinged little room with the outdated window treatments. Not that bad. And generally, you know, husband and wife do tend to live together.

Although, I am going to miss this dark, low ceilinged, walled room with you. Yes, it’s going to be so depressing, schlepping around that 10, 000 square foot mansion. All the cooks and butlers, the theater, indoor pool. Yeah, well, you know, I did live there before, so I am quite familiar and know my way around all those 10, 000 square feet.

But last time you were a nanny, now you’re going to be the lady of the manor, bossing people around.

Yes, it will be quite different, won’t it? More enjoyable, I presume. However. There’s a however? Yes, of course there is. I’m not going to have my best friend who can make me laugh harder than anyone else can. Who comforts me when I’m feeling low. It’s not like you’re moving to another galaxy. We’re gonna see each other all the time.

Damn well better. And Gwenny, I hate to bring up the crass topic of money, but how am I gonna afford this place without you? You’re gonna have to give me a raise, okay? Yes, or maybe you’re just gonna have to cut down on all the room service and pay per view porn. Those were art films. Really? 40 gays in 40 nights.

The Devil Wears Nada. Well, maybe not those.

Gwennie, Without me around to rhapsodize about all of your incredible attributes, You better not lose sight of how special, and wonderful, and perfect you are. Well, if I do forget, I’m just gonna have to ring you, aren’t I, so you can remind me. Anytime. Day or night.

You’re Matty. You

know I adore you.

I’m going to cherish all of our memories that we’ve made. Here. In the Salem Inn room. I adore you too. I’m gonna miss you so much. Oh gosh. I’m gonna miss you too.

Wow. Is this okay? Is. Uh, okay, yeah, let me just clarify, so when we talked about dress code, I should have stipulated that you’re not supposed to upstage the bride. You look amazing. Wow. Thank you. And you don’t look so bad yourself. Thank you. So, what’s the protocol? Do we need to get a card or a present? No, no, no, don’t worry about it, because I’m just going to re wrap the waffle iron that I got my sister at her last almost wedding.

Perfect. Hey. Hey. Hi there. Hi. Are, uh, you two… Never mind. It’s none of my business. No, it’s fine. And yes, we are. I mean, that’s assuming if you were asking if we’re seeing each other. Yeah, that was my question. That’s great. Thanks. So, it looks like you have some news of your own to share. Floor’s open. Yeah, I was stopping by to see my dad and tell him that Sloane and I are expecting.

Wow.

You are positively glowing. Thank you. Maybe that’s because I haven’t been this happy since the day Ariana was born. I can’t believe I’m gonna marry my soulmate. Oh, look at you. Kristen, I know that you’ve always thought of Brady that way as, as your soulmate, and, and maybe now that you’re sharing custody of Rachel, maybe that magic will come back again.

Yeah. Maybe.

Suck in. Suck in! Ugh, my goodness, girl! You’re like a negative size two. Why is this so tight? Well, full disclosure, I took the gown straight off the mannequin, who was probably a negative size four. And of course there wasn’t anyone around to do alterations, unfortunately. What? It was a time sensitive situation.

You see what’s happening here? This is me biting my tongue, practicing radical acceptance. Matty, I know you probably think that I should be whisked away in some straitjacket for marrying some guy that I barely know, but in all of my years where I’ve had relationships with men, well, sort of, Relationships with men.

Well, I’ve never clicked with anyone the way that I do with Dimitri. It’s like, um, well, you can sort of say it’s like love at first sight. Like what you had with Craig. I was scamming, Craig! Okay, yeah, maybe not the best analogy. Since, um, Dimitri’s not scamming me, of course. But, um, See, look, what I’m trying to say is that, um, I thought that I could only ever love Xander.

And he loved another woman. And that was my heartbreak. But, Dimitri… Oh, he is going to make me so happy. In fact, he already has. And that’s because he’s not pining for anyone else. He doesn’t have an ex wife or a lover that he can’t get out of his mind.

Matty, that’s because for the first time in my life, I am involved with somebody who only has eyes for me.

Listen to me, nephew. I don’t know what exactly is behind this whirlwind courtship or your ridiculously hasty decision to marry Gwen Ryschek of all people, which I’m sure is going to end up in lots of tears and probably in a courtroom, but in any case, Stefan has reserved our family home for his wedding, so you’re going to have to find another venue.

Uncle, I completely understand your concerns, and obviously it isn’t an ideal situation, but, uh, Well, I can’t do that to Gwen. She’s gonna be here any minute now, expecting to be married right here in the mansion. You think I give a rat’s ass what that woman is expecting? You do not get to blindside us with ridiculous demands.

Do you understand that? Okay, can I, uh, chat with him for a second, please? Can you take it down a notch? Why the hell should I? And why are you so calm about all this? I mean, talk about chutzpah. That son of a bitch is trying to commandeer the house, the staff, the champagne. EJ, can you listen to me for a second, please?

You remember what Kristen said, right? That his co CEO is at DiMera. It is in our best interest not to alienate one of our biggest shareholders. Now, I have to find a way to get along with this guy. I’m still gonna sleep with one eye open, but I don’t see any reason to antagonize the guy over a situation that can be easily remedied.

Remedied? Remedied how? Think about it. These two, they don’t have any friends, and they’re probably haikus longer than the guest list. So why not just set out a few extra chairs? If I’m not mistaken, what you’re trying to say… What I’m saying is we have a double wedding.

That’s wonderful, Eric. That you’re finally getting the child that you… Always wanted. Congratulations. Thank you. You ready? Yes, yes I am. Alright, if you’ll excuse us. We have a wedding to attend. Have fun.

Hi, I am here to pick up some lab results. What’s the name? It’s, uh, Walker. Nicole Walker. May I see some identification? Of course. Yeah. Um.

You know what? It seems I have left it at my house, but I can tell you that the date of service was yesterday with Dr. Sorenson. I’m still going to need to see some identification. If you really need proof that I am who I say I am, feel free to just call my husband, E. J. DiMera. Oh. That won’t be necessary.

I’ve got them right here. Ah,

thank you so much.

Hi. Hi, darling. Is everything alright? I thought you’d be back by now. Yeah, I’m sorry. There was a traffic jam on University Parkway. I’m just picking up our results now, so if I’m late to the wedding, go ahead and start without me. Actually, uh, weddings, plural. What? I don’t… Turns out that, uh, Stefan and Dimitri have agreed to a double wedding.

Wait, a double wedding? What? Okay, I know, but I should have asked you first. You’re expecting me to share my wedding date with that, that creep? Dimitri, you hate him! And Gwen was checking me and she let me take the fall for drugging Abigail. Have you lost your mind? Gabby, I… I am so sorry, really, but we didn’t have a lot of time to come up with an alternative.

The important thing is, you and I are going to be married. You’re going to be husband and wife again, okay? Yeah, I guess we have no choice.

What is going on here? Apparently we’re having a double wedding. No. Oh God, no. No, no. The last double wedding that I was involved in with him was a… Category 5 disaster. Maybe it’s a sign. Maybe you should call off. Call off

my wedding?

I… I don’t want to call off my wedding. Well, then, what about a… Conscious on marrying? Can’t we just go to the courthouse? We don’t have an appointment. Well then, let’s go tomorrow. I mean, come on, what’s, what’s 24 hours? I know that you’re so dead set on getting married before your 40th, darling, but really Gwen, darling.

Everyone is here. I know this isn’t what you expected, but… Look, Dmitri is right. He is right, and you are a vision, Gwen. And right now, everyone and everything is ready to go. Yes, yes, that’s right. And, and I didn’t want to tell you this yet, but I may have got you a little something special and had it engraved with today’s date.

And… And Gabby and Stefan have very generously agreed to share their special day with us. So in a way, with all this love in the air, it’s, uh, well, it’s kind of magical, don’t you think? Well, I’m down. And are we doing ceviche this time? I have developed a shellfish allergy. For Can we get this show on the road, because I have been waiting years to marry this man, and I don’t want to wait longer.

Okay. Okay, yes, yes, I don’t, I don’t want to wait any longer either. So let’s tie these knots. There she is. There you are, and you brought a plus one. Thank you for joining us. Thank you so much, and you look beautiful, as always. Thank you, so do you.

What’s going on? Oh, we’re having a double wedding. The more the merrier. Oh. You say so. Uh huh.

Oh, hey, EJ. Where’s Nicole? Oh, she said to start the ceremony without her. She’s been delayed. Oh, what a shame.

Hi, I’m here to pick up my test results. Oh, your name? Nicole Walker.

Oh, I’m sorry, it says here they’ve already been picked up.

Okay, Nicole Walker. No genetic anomalies detected, blah blah blah. Okay, where is it?

E. J. DiMera.

Not a genetic match. Dear God. The baby’s not EJ’s. It’s Eric’s.

Welcome, one and all. We are here to join this man and this woman, and this man and this woman in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred institution based on trust, love, and mutual respect. Should anyone present see any reason why these two Excuse me, why either of these two out of the four should not be wed.

Speak now or forever hold your peace. Who left that part in?

Well then. Wait a minute.

I have something to say.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Here, lift up a little bit. There we go. Yeah. Can I, can I get you another pillow, you know, or some water, or, you know, I’m gonna, I’m gonna get you a snack. Um, you know what you could do? You could go and get a chill pill, and then you can take it yourself. You just scared the bejesus out of me, so excuse me if I’m not all chill.

You know, next time that you, you know, get a lead on a dangerous situation, I don’t know, maybe you can give me a call? Fair enough. But for the record, baby, I’m fine. You heard Kayla. Whatever sedative Nurse King gave me has been flushed out of my system. Alright. So we’re all good. Glad to hear it so I can finally take you back to prison.

Ah, there you go. I’m so relieved. Alana’s gonna be okay. I still can’t believe that she tracked down my dad. He’s, he’s actually alive. I know. She’s somewhat of a hero, isn’t she? She is, but I swear when Marlena wheeled my dad out of that elevator, I thought I was saying things. I bet you did. I was until I hugged him.

I felt him in my arms. I let myself believe it was real. I just wish that he knew who I was. Do you think that he’s going to get his memory back at some point? I’m hopeful, yes. Your father’s head injury was not severe. Which means that the amnesia should be temporary. Should be. Are you saying that there’s a chance that my dad will never remember us?

Oh, my love. Can’t believe you’re really here.

Thought I’d lost you forever.

No. Abraham. You’re awake.

How do you feel? Strange. Tired. Well, it’s no wonder you’ve been through so much. Went in the hospital. Mm hmm. You were drugged, but… It’s, uh… The doctors, they’re getting that stuff right out of your system. I was drugged. How did, how did, how did that happen? Well, it’s a long story, but you know what?

I think it’s best that you just relax for now, okay? And I will, I will tell you, I will answer all your questions when you feel a little better. Uh, I have, I have, uh, two questions. They can’t wait, they can’t wait. Yeah, of course, of course. What do you want to know? Forgive me. Who are you? And

where’s my wife?

Hello, Miss King. Oh, my hands! Oh,

what are you doing here? Well, I came to check on you. I wanted to see how you’re doing since I saw you this morning. I, I saw you this morning? Yes, don’t you remember seeing me? You do know who I am, right? How could I not know who you are? You’re just the queen diva of my favorite soap opera.

Wow!

Wait, wait, wait. Ugh, no, we can’t do this! Well, we seem to be doing a pretty good job so far. No, dum dum Gwenny! We can’t do this to her! Ugh, here we go again. Yes, here we go again! I am feeling guiltier than ever! I am her best friend, you’re her groom! And here we are, hooking up the night before your marriage!

I wish things could be different, Leo, I really do. I wish that we could be together, out in the open. But, as you also know, if I want this inheritance Yeah, yeah, you have to marry her before you’re over the hill. Before I turn 40. Same thing. And look, before I turn thirty five… Okay, forty. Okay, forty five! I have to rid myself of this guilt I have towards the sweetest person I know!

Well, definitely not the sweetest, but certainly the most loyal, or I, will inherit a straitjacket. So what do you say? That this affair, as thrilling and wonderful as it is, it… It has to end. Oh, you don’t mean that. Did I not just explain that I, who have fought hating myself my entire life for being a petty little twat, as Gwen recently called me, although she said it in a light hearted and affectionate way because she loves me and I love her, which is why I am so tortured

and now losing the Don’t do that. You know how much I How much you what? Oh, oh. Lordy, Lordy and lordy. Tomorrow. I married Gwen tonight, baby. I am all yours. God, I can’t believe

I never forgot my phone. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. I

didn’t realize that my dad’s amnesia could be permanent. Well, that’s rarely the case, but we just can’t rule out the possibility. Okay, well… Is there something that we can do to increase his chances of him recovering his memories? I mean… Well, I mean, for starters, we are flushing the drugs out of his system.

And then we’re gonna let his brain have some time to heal. And sometimes the memories just come back on their own. And if that doesn’t happen, then we will explore the other options. Possibly, uh, hypnotherapy or even occupational therapy. Like I had when I was a kid. Right. But I think what’s going to help your dad the most is he has your tremendous support of family and friends Well, I’ll be there for him as much as he needs me to be But I just can’t help but wonder if If what?

Maybe somehow This is all my fault. Abraham,

I know your mind is all jumbled up right now, but please believe me, okay? I am your wife, and I love you very much. I, I, I, I don’t even know you. Uh, well, uh, look, uh, look. It says it right there. Paulina Price. I’m your wife. That’s me. That, that, uh, that other woman? That was Nurse Whitley King. She was your nurse here at the hospital.

She pretended to be me and she kidnapped you. Plucked you right out of your hospital bed. Worst of all, she tricked us into thinking you were dead. Why, why, why would she do that? I don’t know, but clearly that woman is completely off her rocker. Miss King? Oh, please, call me Whitley. We’re practically family, after all.

I think you’re confused. Oh, I know that we’re not actually family. I’ve just spent so many years watching the story of your life.

Exactly. Who do you think I am? Oh, well, I know who you are. You are Charlemagne Delacroix from Body and Soul. Um, actually, that’s a fictional character. I’m Dr. Marlena Evans. We worked together at the hospital. Um, until recently, you, you were a nurse there. And you were a patient of mine. Patient.

I’m a psychiatrist. I’d like to help you if you’ll let me.

Well, Leo. Am I doing this? Or should I put my clothes back on and leave you here? Finish up all by your lonesome.

I suppose it would be a shame to let all this gratuitous nudity go to waste. Oh dear, what’s going on

here?

Gwen, darling! You’re back! I thought you were going to the office. I forgot my phone. Oh, mother of rotten luck. For you, I mean. I’m so sorry you had to come all the way back here. You should have texted me and I would have… Oh, if you didn’t have your phone, it’s hard to text about a forgotten phone without a phone, right?

Are you quite finished? Yeah, I’m done. So how’s the planning going? You know, like the two of you said that you were going to do. Well, we had been working on the surprise for your wedding and we got sidetracked. Yes, I can see that. Care to explain what’s happened to my fiancé’s clothes?

Sorry to barge in on you, Mrs. Grant. Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Sam Gerrard with the U. S. Marshal’s Office. You know, you caused quite a stir with your disappearance. If I may. She was knocked out and held against her will. I’m well aware. I was with Detective Hunter and the former commissioner when they found her at the docks.

I heard you tracked my monitor. Thank you for helping them find me. Just doing my job, ma’am. Which also includes taking you back to Maryland. And now that you’re feeling better, I’m afraid we have to leave right away. I’m sorry. I can’t let you do that.

Why on earth would you think that you have anything to do with your father’s amnesia? Well, Claire’s always talking about karma and karmic payback. And I’m just wondering if what I did a couple of years ago might have caused what happened to my dad. Uh, no. Well, you don’t even know what I’m talking about.

Maybe you do. Okay, okay. Why don’t you tell me? Well, when Ciara lost her memory, I started dating her again. Even though she didn’t remember Ben. I mean, we almost got married. And that’s, well, that’s similar to what Nurse Whitley did to my dad. Okay, okay, you need to listen to me for a second, okay? Nurse Whitley kidnapped and manipulated your father.

She drugged him and made all of us believe that he was dead. There is no way that any of that is similar to what you did. And aside from all that, it’s not the way the universe works. You don’t believe in karma? I think I’m of two minds about it, really. I mean, I have seen so many good people have really bad things happen to them.

And also the opposite. But you know what? I do believe that being a good person is its own reward, and the kindness and decency can be contagious. You, Theo, are a good person, and I believe No, I know that the only people responsible for your dad’s condition are Colin Bedford and Whitley Kate.

Whitley,

I’d like to talk about what happened at your apartment this morning. You know, I’m awfully tired. I think we should talk about it some other time. No, that’s not a good idea. We made a breakthrough already, and it’s important that we continue.

Look, otherwise I’m afraid that you may end up harming yourself or someone else. Why would you say that? Because of what happened with Abe. Look, I know it wasn’t your intention, but Abe was hurt by what you did. So was his family.

You’re saying it’s true. That I was kidnapped by Paulina. Nurse Whitley. You were kidnapped by Nurse Whitley.

If Whitley kidnapped me, then that explains why she would never, ever let me leave the apartment. She said, she said that I was in danger, that, that a man attacked me. Uh, yes, well, that part is true. It’s why, it’s why you were in the hospital the first time. A man named Colin Bedford, very bad man, he knocked you out in my daughter’s bakery.

Do you remember that? All I remember is, uh, is waking up in the hospital and Chanel was beside me. Yes, my daughter, Chanel, she owns the bakery. And when you woke up, she went to go find me. And, uh, a woman came by. Yeah, that was your nurse. She took advantage of your confused state. But at home she, she showed me our wedding picture.

And she was, she was definitely in it. It must have been a fake! Photoshopped!

See? See? This is our real wedding picture. You and me. Oh, what a day it was. The day we became husband and wife. Oh, one of the happiest of my life. And you, you said the same thing. Do, do you recognize us? Does it seem at all familiar? Wait a minute, wait a minute. I

do remember you now.

Agent Grant, I understand that you’d like to spend more time with your wife. But, she was given furlough to attend her father’s funeral. Who, as it turns out, is actually still alive. That’s my point. And she thought she lost her dad and she’s been granted a miracle. Can’t you give her a few days to spend with her dad?

I mean, at least until he’s out of the hospital. My hands are tied. It’s not my call. Yeah, but you can make a plea on her behalf. I mean, her father has lost his memory, and spending time with his daughter could help him regain it. A case of amnesia? After a miraculous return from the dead? Sounds like something from Body and Soul.

You know, the soap opera? Uh, not that I’m a big fan. The Mrs. makes me watch. From time to time. Is there any way that you can arrange for me to stay here? Just a little longer? I sympathize with you, Mrs. Grant, but my hands are tied. We were already booked on the next flight.

Okay. Okay.

Can I at least say goodbye to my father before we go?

Oh, Abraham! I’m so relieved! Oh, you finally got your memory back! It’s not what I meant.

Not what you meant? What? What do you mean, you don’t remember me? I do, from my dream. I, I dreamed that I was jumping the broom with my bride, and it was you. I saw it, clear as day. Of course you did, because even though your mind had lost all love, your Your heart was trying to remind you because I am still in there in your heart, aren’t I?

Again, I’m, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I, uh, other than a couple of moments from the wedding, I honestly don’t know who you are. Heh. I certainly don’t remember our love.

Dad, you’re awake. Hey, hey there.

You’re my son, Brandon, right? No, um, no, I’m Theo.

Oh, that can’t be. I’ve seen Theo. You’re not him. Honey, you’ve been spending time with an imposter. Someone pretending to be Theo. It was arranged by Whitley. It was just another one of her deceptions.

I respect and admire Mayor Carver. I would never hurt him. I just, I just wanted to keep him safe. I, I didn’t want him to end up like, like your husband.

I know you blame yourself for his death. I think that’s why you tried to replace him with Abe. Because it would mean, if you could, that terrible tragedy never would have happened.

Look at me.

You’re not Paulina Price. You’re Whitley King.

But I don’t want to be Whitley King. It, it, Whitley King, it means I killed my husband. It means I’m an awful person. It means I have nothing to live for.

Abraham, the young man who you thought was your son, that was an actor. Whitley hired an actor named Jerry Prentiss to pretend to be Thiel. That’s right. I remember. I saw Jerry’s name in the credits of Body and Soul. And now that you’ve seen your real son in person, well, does that trigger any other memories?

No. No, it doesn’t.

Oh. Oh. Oh, my love, there must be something to help you remember. Ah.

It’s you.

Well, this all must seem rather strange, Gwen, but I assure you there is a perfectly reasonable explanation. I’m waiting. Well, I… Dimitri does not have a proper suit for tomorrow, so I convinced him to try on one of mine. You have plenty of seats. Yeah, but they’re also blah. I told him he needed something special, something with a little pizzazz.

You know, after all, this is a once in a lifetime event. So, he needs something more like… this. Yeah. Not really your cup of tea, is it, Dmitri? Yes, I know, but with the wedding only hours away, I was… desperate. He was just about to try this on, which would explain his state of undress. Mm. Mm mm. Yep, sorry, Matty, I’m not buying it.

You see, I know what’s really going on here.

No more lies, Matty. But I just told you that I You wanted Dimitri to get married in something pizzazzy. Exactly! Come on! You honestly thought that I would believe that he would fit into one of your smedium suits. This one’s a woman’s large. It doesn’t matter what size it is. You didn’t want to see Dimitri in it, you wanted to see him out of it.

What are you suggesting? That you wanted to see my fiancé in his underwear. Okay.

You got me. Maybe I did wanna… Coggle, DVL, and his BVDs. And now I’m so embarrassed for having a crush on a straight man. Which is kind of a pattern for me. Although I do get crushes on gay men, but that’s usually when they’re plausible. You’re right, you’re right. Um, no one needs to know what a screw up I am.

Uh, Dimitri? I apologize for putting you through that. Cheap trick. All is forgiven. Thank you for understanding. And Gwenny, thank you for knowing me so well and for putting up with me anyway. Yes, you are my BFF, aren’t you forget this. After tomorrow, this man is all mine.

Whitley, you mustn’t think that way. Like, I know things seem bleak at the moment, but when you get the help you need, you’ll be able to let go of this terrible guilt you’re feeling. My precious husband. He was so good to me. He was so sweet. If only I’d known that you didn’t.

So you couldn’t help him?

He’s probably looking down at me from having such shame at the person that I’ve become.

He probably doesn’t even recognize me. I don’t even recognize myself.

I just got off the phone with Steve. He and John are on their way home with Jerry Prentiss. Please tell them that I said thank you. I’d do it myself, but the U. S. Marshal has insisted that Lonnie go back to prison immediately. That’s gonna be rough on her. My gosh, she just got her dad back. At least he’s allowing her to say her goodbyes.

You remember Lani? Of course. You’re the woman who came to rescue me. You came to the apartment.

And you told me you were my daughter. That’s right. What about before that? Any memories of her prior to your attack? No. I’m so sorry. I wish I could remember. I just, I just can’t. That’s okay, Dad. Give yourself time. I am just so glad we have you back. You know, the way you stood up to Whitley. You were so brave.

That’s our baby girl. The bravest woman I know. I wonder where I get that from.

Oh. I’ll help you. Hey. How’s it going in here? Dad’s awake. So happy to see that. Um, I’m sorry. Who are

you? Um, I’m Lonnie’s husband, Eli. I have son in law. And friend. Hey, we’re, we’re, we’re just so relieved and we’re happy that you’re back. We missed you. Lani and I, Paulina, Theo. Your grandkids.

We love you.

Thank you for your kindness.

I hate to cut things short, but our time is up. We gotta go.

But Abraham just woke up! Are you sure you have to go right this minute? We don’t have a choice. Where are you off to? Um, Eli and I, we, we live in Maryland. With our twins Jules and Carver. And the Grandfather. Yes, yes, and all those babies, they are the cutest little angels. Oh wait, hold on, hold on, I got a picture right here.

I’ll show you. Oh, look, Carver, Carver here. He is your namesake. Mm hmm. What do you know? I hear these are, these are beautiful children. Thank you. No wonder you don’t want to be away from them very long.

Yes, it’s been very difficult being separated from them. And mom will explain that to you later. But dad, I… I have some other obligations that I have to fulfill. So it’ll be a while before I can come back. But I promise you, I will come back and visit soon. So in the meantime, know that I love you with all my heart.

And I’ll be thinking about you. And looking forward to when we can all be back together.

Alright.

Goodbye, honey. I

love you

too. Thank you, thank you for helping to bring Abe back to us. We couldn’t have done it without you. Oh, I love you, baby girl. I’m just so grateful I could help. I love you. And you.

Why are you being so kind to me, Dr. Evans? I know that Abe is your good friend. He is. But you’re in a lot of pain and I would like to help you get through it. Oh, what’s the point? I’m just going to end up in prison, right? Well, I don’t know about that. But I do know that you’ve been through a terrible trauma.

And I want to make sure there is someone to help you get through that. I don’t deserve help. I hurt so many people. How in the world am I going to make up for that?

Well, now that you have your phone and that’s all sorted, are you heading back to the office? Um, I think, um, I’ll just stay in here now. Get all the rest I can before the big day, but not be so rested where you and I can’t celebrate a bit on my last night of freedom. Of course, party time. In that case, I’ll take my leave.

I have some shopping to do. Need to find myself an appropriate suit. Don’t listen to Matty, just wear any suit. I’m sure it’d be perfect. You are gonna look dashing no matter what. True that. Alright, thank you Leo. You too. Be sure to have a wonderful night. And to you, my beautiful bride to be, I’m counting down the moments until you walk down that aisle for me.

As am I, my love. I can’t wait.

I’m gonna miss you so much. Same. But, it’s only six months until I’m up for Pearl. Right, and hopefully, by the time you get back, that’ll be as old as I’ll forget. I’m counting on him. You’ll keep me posted? Of course. Oh. Next time that we come back home, it’ll be for good.

Alright. We’re ready.

Hello, Abe? You probably don’t remember me, but I’m Dr. Kayla Johnson. Were you my doctor from before? Yes, I was. But I’m also a very close friend of yours. And so is my husband, Steve.

I’m sorry. Doesn’t ring a bell. That’s okay. It’ll come to you. The important thing is to not put too much pressure on yourself.

It’s very frustrating, not being able to recognize my family. Well, they understand. Believe me, they are just so relieved and happy that you are alive and well. In fact, this whole town just loves you so much, and they’re rooting for you. Whitney, you deserve help. And you’re going to get it. You’re not alone.

Paulina, how is Abe? Physically, he is just fine. But, when he opened his eyes, he asked for you, Whitley. I did my best to set him straight, but my husband looks into my eyes and he doesn’t remember me. He doesn’t know me. His own wife. He doesn’t remember his children. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. I know that I put all of you through hell.

If there’s anything I can do to help… Oh! Oh! You can shut your damn mouth! I don’t want to hear anything that you have to say!

Paulina. We should go. Now. Fine, fine. I’ll go. But I just want this bitch to know that she can’t undo all the damage that she’s, she’s caused with just, I’m sorry. It’s going to take a hell of a lot more than that. Well, hell

Let’s go.

I can do this. I can do this. I can do this. I can do this. All I have to do is fake a marriage. For an entire year.

But then I get my inheritance.

And in the meantime, I see no reason why I should have to give up Leo.

Oh, Matty. Can you believe it? Tomorrow, I’m going to marry a man that I absolutely adore. And he adores me back.

Look, I know that… I know you had your doubts about Dimitri in the beginning, but… I think now you can see how very right we are for each other. And how happy he makes me.

I do. And that makes me happy.

Matty, it means so much to me that you’ve come around. Honestly, without your blessing, I don’t think, I don’t think I’d be able to go through with this wedding. That’s how important you are to me.

And you to me.

Hey,

don’t you too someday. I know it. You’re gonna meet the most amazing guy who’s going to love you just as much as Dimitri loves me. And then we’re both gonna have our happily ever after. Just like we’ve dreamed of.

Ow.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I am where you told me to be and this guy still has not shown up. Okay. Okay. Hm. Just tell me again what I’m supposed to be looking for. Blue blazer. Got it.

It couldn’t be him. Not again. Could it?

Hello, Lee. We meet again. Yes, and what an unpleasant deja vu it is. So you didn’t just throw in the towel, you asked the matchmaker who put us together to try again? Yeah, and now I’m… How’d you know that? Because I did the same thing, because this is deja vu for me too. Wait, what are you trying to tell me?

That I’m your date for the night.

Well… Congratulations, that’s great. Thank you, no, we’re really, we’re really happy. I’m sure. EJ, there you are. Yes, here I am. And so are all of you. Something wrong? No, not at all. So, what are you both doing here? Is someone sick? No, I just told you, we’re fine actually. We, we couldn’t be better. Ah, Nicole, do you want to tell me what’s going on here?

Sure. Sloan just told me she’s having a baby. Eric’s

baby.

Oh, good run. Yeah, I, uh, I went down by the river to catch a breeze and, um, there was no breeze. You worked out quite a sweat. Oh yeah? You noticed? Ooh, I noticed.

So, um, the kids are at Doug and Julie’s tonight, huh? Yeah. They called while you were out. They were having a wonderful time. And I told them we’d pick them up first thing in the morning. Oh, good. So why don’t you shower, and I will figure out what’s for dinner. Okay. Okay. Oh no, I’m getting my sweat all over you.

Hey, it’s a bad time? Yeah, it is. And don’t you ever wear clothes?

To the DiMera mansion, yes. And, um, please have your guy put it in the fridge for me. Thank you. Well, I’ve just checked off the last thing on my to do list.

Gosh. I cannot believe you and I are getting married tomorrow.

In less than 24 hours, you and I are going to be husband and wife. And then

we’ll I don’t know, Victorian, to put the happily ever off until after some patriarchal ceremony. What do you mean? Well, can’t we put the wedding night before the wedding?

I’m sorry, Gwen, uh… I can’t do this.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

I’m sorry, what did you just say? I, I said, uh, forgive me Gwen, I, uh, I don’t think this is a good idea. It isn’t a good idea? Do

you perhaps care to be a bit more specific? I mean, not a good idea about hitting the sack, or not… A good idea about getting married, because Bloody hell, Dimitri. One minute I’m ordering my bouquet, and the next minute you are actually shoving me away No, I wasn’t exactly shoving you away. No, you’re right.

More like swatting me away like I was a mosquito. Gwen, please. I… Dimitri. If something is wrong, you had better tell me now. That

First of all, if it felt like I was shoving you away, I am so sorry, darling. It’s just that there’s so much still left to do before the wedding. Well, then why’d you come over here in the first place? B because I, because I wanted to see if there’s anything that you needed me to do. Well, there was. And you acted as though I violated your virtue.

Right. Okay, um… I think that maybe we are both a little bit nervous about the big day and, uh, I think we should be careful right now about saying things that we might later regret. You mean hearing things that you don’t want to hear?

I’m gonna go. I am going to go run my few errands and then I am going to come right back and we can continue this conversation once we both settle down a bit. Gwen,

can we please not fight the night before our wedding?

What the hell just found out. Well, that’s great. I’m so very happy for you. Congratulations, Eric. Thank you. So… Maybe all four of us can do Lamar’s together.

Or not.

Anyway, I… I know this must mean the world to you, Eric. And you’re going to be a father after all.

What the hell, Alex? This isn’t what it looks like, Steph. I meant what I said about moving on. Well, showing up shirtless doesn’t seem like moving on. It seems like the same old, same old. I have a shirt. I have two shirts. I just need to know which one to wear. So flip a freakin coin. Give me two seconds, please.

Seriously, this one? Or this one? Okay, Alex, do you not see how pathetic this is? I have a date tonight and I want to look my best. I had an idea for… Are you kidding me? No, I’m not kidding you. I was asking Stephanie her opinion on what shirt I should wear. When I used to live at the mansion, I was able to ask Sonny and Maggie, but…

You’d ask Maggie what shirt to wear and you’re wondering why she questioned your leadership abilities? Dude, how about you Just tell me which one to where and I’ll leave. 1, 2, 1.

You went back to the same matchmaker. I believe in second chances. No, you don’t. You believe in putting people in jail and throwing away the key. What? Making a bad match is not as serious as trying to kill your ex wife’s fiancé. Which I did not do, damn it. What, you put that on your dating profile and never lets anything go?

Oh, did you mention your interest in science like aversion therapy to recondition a man’s libido? You know what? This is not how I wanted this night to go. Yeah, you’re not the only one. What? I’m so sorry, can I help you? I sure hope so, given how very handsome you look in that blue jacket. I’m sorry, who are you?

Connie Vaninski. Your date.

Look, I’m sorry if I seemed flipped before, the… Blame Lamar’s joke. Nicole and I are both very happy for the two of you. Both of you? Of course. We both know how much you wanted to be a father. Uh, he’s gonna be an amazing father. So, you and Sloane are pregnant at the same time. I guess this means we’ll be going to the same little league, Ames.

I’m sorry. Well, I think we should probably get going. We don’t want to be late to that appointment. Yeah, no we don’t. It was good seeing you.

Oh, well done EJ. You sure laid that on with the trowel.

What?

I’m sorry if I seemed abrupt just now. Miss um, Veninsky, but call me Connie. You see, there’s been some confusion as to who I’m supposed to meet tonight. Oh, hey. No prob, Rob. Actually, it’s Lee. Oh, I didn’t think it was your name. I was making a joke. No prob, Rob. See, it rhymes. Cute. I get a million of them. I’m sure you do.

Love that dress. I’m a big fan of red. And sorry I was late. The circus is in town. Oh, were you looking for work? No, the parade screwed up traffic. Oh, hard to speed up those elephants. Ain’t it the truth. Look, I don’t mean to be pushy or anything, but I came here for a date. A due, as the French say. So would you mind bidding adios to your little friend?

Right, well, uh, grab a table. If you’ll excuse us. Of course. You two have a lot to talk about.

What the hell is going on here? Lee isn’t my date. Who is?

How lame was that? I mean, what shirt should I wear? Chad? No, I mean, what does he think? If he shows you his six pack one more time, you’re suddenly going to succumb to his charm? You know what I really hate about him coming up like that? It’s just, it’s, how rude is he? How transparent? It’s how long it takes you, after he leaves, to talk about anything else.

Because it’s beyond infuriating. I mean, who, who does that? Like, what kind of idiot just keeps showing up when he’s not wanted? Chad, listen to me. Please, look at me. We have a night alone. I wonder if there’s anything I can do to make you think about something else. I don’t know, can you think of anything that you might find more interesting than talking about Alex?

Like who?

I think we can come up with something. In the shower. Oh, okay. Cause you know how I feel about water. Oh my god, look at that towel. I’m gonna kill him. What do you want? Oh, I’m sorry. Is this a bad time?

You know… In a town where there is serial demonic possession, multitudinal dead people coming back to life, and every wedding, both literally and figuratively, ends with an explosion, you would think it would be easy to write a gossip column. The problem is that the bar is set so high… Simple adultery seems boring, which is why I’ve got nothing for my gossip column tomorrow.

Nada, zilch, nothing.

Gwenny, are you listening to me? Yeah. Are you okay?

Fine. No, you’re not. Oh my god, I scared you talking about Salem, and now you’re worried that something’s gonna go wrong at your wedding. I’m not worried about that. I’m worried there’s not going to even be a wedding at all.

So I wouldn’t say I’m gluten free, but I’m what I like to call gluten wary.

I must say, I’m surprised you decided to use a matchmaking service. From what I’ve heard, you have no problem finding women. Mm, mm. Well. That is true, I guess, but really, what I would like is to meet a woman who’s, uh… Who’s what? Out of my league. I’m pretty shallow.

So after I graduated Salem High, I enrolled in Salem U while working nights at the Cheating Heart. And I was a candy striper at University Hospital for a time in the late 90s. For some reason they made us watch all these videos about the perils of DNA testing. Anywho, I’ve basically lived in Salem my whole life.

Never even took a vacation anywhere else, save for the time my family and I went up to Green Mountain Lodge. What about you? Well, I mostly grew up in Hong Kong. I came to the States for school. You’re seriously interested in that table. What? No, no. It’s okay, I get it. I’d be peeved at that woman too if I were you.

You know who that is? Sure do. She’s the DA who almost sent you up the river for trying to have your ex wife’s fiancé rubbed out.

I’m sorry, honey. I really do think you’re overreacting. That’s easy for you to say. You’re not the one that he refused to have sex with.

Bloody errands, indeed. I mean, I touched him, and he pulled away. My God, Matthew. Why wouldn’t he want to have sex with the woman that he supposedly loves?

How should I put this? Anytime I open the door and I see you, it’s de facto a bad time. I recognize that you have your reservations about me, Chad, but I only need a minute. There’s something very important I need to tell you. One minute. Thank you. Well, I, um, I would just like to personally invite you to my wedding tomorrow.

Gwen and I would be honored if you would attend.

Do you want to talk about it? Talk about what? That you found out Sloane Peterson is pregnant and now she and Eric are our new best friends? I can’t stand her. And you can’t stand Eric. I was trying to be polite. What should I have said? Oh, you’re going to have a baby? Eh, so what? Big deal. You pushed right past polite and went straight to gushing.

Oh, I did not gush. Oh, okay. To making stupid jokes. I was trying to lighten the mood. Everyone seems so damn sober. I’m going to bed. You know what I think? What do you think? You’re not upset that I was being nice to Sloane or that I was making little jokes. You’re not even upset that Sloane is going to have a baby.

You’re upset that Sloane is going to have Eric’s baby.

Well… At least EJ seemed happy for us. The same as the more operative word. I mean, at least he tried. Not like Nicole, who… What about Nicole? Oh, come on, Eric. He saw how she was. She congratulated us. Her congratulations was not sincere. Okay, hey, listen. We are here waiting for a prenatal exam, so… We’re having a baby.

And we’re both thrilled about that, so why don’t we try to concentrate on that? Yeah, you’re right. Okay. The most important thing is our baby. Amen. So, I was… Talkin with Nicole. Wait, aren’t you the one that just said we weren’t gonna talk about Nicole? Well, she was telling me more about genetic testing.

That her doctor even said that he can discover more about the baby than from a sonogram. So, um, Nicole was talking about the

baby.

Nicole, I, I don’t want us to fight. But I do want us to do things differently this time. We need to be honest with each other. I mean really honest with each other. I know that you’re upset that Sloan is having a baby, having Eric’s baby. And I can understand that, but we need to talk about it.

You’re right. I am upset. But it’s not about what you think it is. What is it you think I think? I think that you think I’m still hung up on Eric. And that I can’t stand the thought of him having a baby with another woman. But that’s not true.

Baby, I love you. Not Eric. You. And I am so thrilled to be having this baby with you.

I sense a doubt.

It’s Sloane. It’s not Eric or, or, or their baby. It’s Sloane. And just… Something about her pregnancy seems… Off. Hmm.

Why

would EJ and Nicole need testing done? Genetic testing. I mean, they’re both young and healthy. Nicole, she suffered miscarriages, you know, from the past. So it makes sense that she’d want to know as much about the baby as possible. I’m happy. Is it even safe? I mean, for the baby? No, the baby’s not even involved.

Nicole said the doctor, all he has to do is take a little swab from E’S mouth and then they can test that D n a and find out exactly what the baby could be dealing with in the future.

And then medical advances in technology, it’s incredible, right? Yeah, it’s um, it’s incredible. So yeah, I decided I was um, done with the constant hookups and the meaningless sex and got myself some much needed therapy. Try and find out why I was so afraid of commitment. Well, good for you Alex. You really, you give me hope for the rest of your gender.

Hmm.

So, um, what brought about this epiphany where relationships and women are concerned? What brought it about was the fact that I screwed things up. Royally screwed things up with the woman that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. You and Gwen are really getting married. Yes, yes we are. And, uh, we would love it if the two of you would be there.

I mean… We wouldn’t, we wouldn’t miss that for the world. No, I mean, we think that you two are just a match made in heaven. I mean, when I went into that Chip’s cabin…

Why would EJ and Nicole need testing done, genetic testing? I mean, they’re both young and healthy. Nicole, she’s suffered miscarriages, you know, from the past. So it makes sense that she’d want to know as much about the baby as possible. Um, but is it even safe? I mean, for the baby? No, but the baby’s not even involved.

Nicole said the doctor, all he has to do is take a little swab from EJ’s mouth. And then they can test that DNA. And find out exactly what the baby could be dealing with in the future.

And then medical advances in technology, it’s incredible, right? Yeah, it’s um… It’s incredible. So, yeah, I decided I was, um, done with the constant hookups and the meaningless sex and got myself some much needed therapy. Try and find out why I was so afraid of commitment. Well, good for you, Alex. You really, you give me hope for the rest of your gender.

So, um, what brought about this epiphany where relationships and women are concerned? What brought it about was the fact that I screwed things up. Royally screwed things up with the woman that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. You and Gwen are really getting married. Yes. Yes we are. And uh, we would love it if the two of you would be there.

I mean, , we wouldn’t, we wouldn’t miss that for the world. . No, I mean, I, we think that you two are just a match made in heaven. I, we, when I went into that ship’s cabin and, uh, and you had that gun trained on Kate, you know, you were threatening to kill her. Kate, who, uh, you enjoyed pointing out that I love like a mother.

You know, I, I thought, it popped into my head that, uh, you know who I should fix him up with? Is Gwen Rizchek, the woman who, uh, terrorized my family and gave my wife psychosis inducing drugs. And you two are, uh, are absolutely perfect for each other. Um, where are you kids going on your honeymoon? Hell? I hope.

Well, I sincerely hoped that this would be a fresh start for all of us. Stephanie, you and Gwen are family after all, just like Chad and I. Abigail and I were family too. And I haven’t forgotten what Gwen did to her. Never will. That’s your minute.

You’re getting really good at that. Have you ever been in therapy? It’s amazing. Really, I mean, sometimes, though, I feel as if maybe I found out a little… Too much about myself. Oh. For example, this one time, I was like 8 years old. No, 7? 7? 8, 8, 8, 8, cause I was already a big Cubs fan. And I walk inside of my house.

You know, just for the record, no matter what you read or heard, I had nothing to do with any plot to kill Stefan DiMera. No? That’s a shame. I beg your pardon? I have a thing for bad boys.

Sweetie, if Dimitri says he’s running errands, I’m sure that’s all there is to

it. Since when did you become so trusting? I’m not. I, I just… You are my best friend. I hate seeing you so sad and rejected. But if you are starting to wonder about this guy, if you think maybe he is not as into you as he claims to be, it’s not too late to call it off. You think I should call off the wedding?

The thing is, Gwen really likes you. I think maybe she even loves you. Yes. But I promise you, I will take care of Gwen in my own way. But you have to promise me that no one will know about this. Especially her. It’ll only hurt her. No! No, I don’t think you should call off your wedding. Look, I think this is just pre wedding jitters.

Dimitri was in a mood, you took him by surprise, he’s, he’s an alpha male. You should not call your wedding off over a fumbled pass. Hang on, did Leo Stark just use a sports metaphor? Only for you. Only for my best friend.

Are you sure about Dimitri? Positive. Oh,

fine.

I’m just gonna get over my tired self and I’m gonna pretend that tonight never happened.

Matty. And thank God I always have you to set me straight, my best friend in the entire world.

So, you were hoping that I actually did try to kill my wife’s former lover. Well, I’m totally addicted to true con podcasts, but what sets me apart is I’m always rooting for the bad guy. And I never heard a podcast that got me going the way reading about how you and Stefan’s own sister tried to brainwash an ex navy SEAL to take him out.

And I’d really like to, you know, go somewhere private and hear all about it. Straight from the horse’s mouth. You know, I really

loved you. And? So, what I thought I was doing when I turned off Stephanie’s phone was just trying to keep us from being interrupted again. So then we could finally have sex. But now I see that it was really my fear of abandonment That made me try and control, not just the situation, but control Stephanie’s life.

And of course, naturally, it blows up right in my face, now she’s with Chad, living across the hall from me, and I’m just trying to stay grateful, you know? That we can be friends, and I can commit myself to moving on into a more mutual trusting. And… Respectful relationship. Maybe with someone like you. Uh, well, that’s…

I’m afraid that’s never gonna happen. I mean, I thought we were getting along. Uh, we were, and look, you’re a nice guy, but… This is not going anywhere. Why not? Well, because A, you talk too much. B, you keep taking your glasses on and off, which is really annoying. And it’s obviously some kind of phony affectation.

And C, you are still in love with Stephanie Johnson.

Anyone knock while I was in the shower? Gwen? Leo? The Gestapo? None of the above. But, with all the interruptions, I never made dinner. Okay, if we go out? Well, I think that is a great idea. I mean, it just doesn’t make sense. I mean, first of all, why would Dimitri want us there when he marries Gwen? So we can throw bricks, I mean, rice, at the bride.

No, seriously, I mean, snakes copulate. They don’t get married. Excellent analogy. I just, I don’t know, there’s something, there’s something very off about that movie.

Oh, hi. I didn’t realize you’d be here. Is Gwen around? She’s in the bathroom. Oh, Dimitri. I was just going to ring you. Um, it turns out I got all worked up over you having to go run errands. I have to run one myself. Oh, so you’re heading out? Yeah, something at the Spectator. Sorry. I’m also sorry about how I behaved earlier.

I’m just a bit bridezilla, right? No, no.

Well, you can thank Leo there for talking me down from the ledge.

You two play nice now.

Well,

that sounds like a good idea. I think you

are right. I think this time around we do need to be honest with each other.

And I honestly love you. And I am over Eric, but I will always care about him and his happiness.

I know that. And I can’t expect you not to.

But, uh, let’s think about when Sloane got her hooks into Eric. And it was right after Jada aborted his baby and when he thought Marlena was dead. And Eric is a fundamentally good man who is now having a baby with a tarantula. Wait, you don’t like Sloane? I just thought one day he’d wake up and see Sloane for who she really is.

But now a baby? He’s gonna be tied to her forever.

Which is why she got pregnant.

I’m gonna go see what’s keeping the doctor, okay?

God, this cannot be happening. Damn it, Nicole. Oh God, check EJ’s DNA. That’s not a match with that baby. Good proof. That’s not EJ’s baby. That is Eric’s.

So, how was your date? Oh, God awful. And yours? Uh, ask me any detail. Any detail at all you’d like to know about Alex’s inner journey. I would not. I see you ordered our favorite. I thought I’d be sharing it with Alex, but he was too busy talking to eat or drink anything. Rambling on about his cliché epiphanies and his ex.

And he kept taking his stupid non prescription glasses on and off. I guess he thinks they make him look smart. He’s a bigger boob than I thought he was. Be ashamed to waste it. So why don’t you let me atone for our date the other night and share it with you? You want to pat me down? See if I’m wearing a wire?

That sounds very inviting. I

mean the wine, of course. Hey, you

too. Access soon? Yeah, my date and I, we didn’t exactly, you know. Hit it off. Unfortunate. We, we, we, we’re just gonna, uh, yeah. Um, what are you gonna do with the rest of your evening then? Me? Uh, probably just order a pizza. I’ve been listening to this podcast about, uh, embracing vulnerability. I read the book. A real page turner.

I guess I might you a question. Does it annoy you that I take my glasses on and off? I mean, they’re not prescription. My vision’s fine. I just thought they were kind of cool. Yeah, no, I don’t, I don’t think it’s cool to, uh, wear glasses if you don’t really need them. It’s kind of a phony affectation, so I’d probably just get rid of them.

Yeah, I guess I will. Uh, what are you guys doing? Going to the pub.

Oh. Wanna come? No, no, I don’t, I don’t want to intrude. Okay. But on second thoughts, I mean, the clam chowder would be pretty great. Let’s go.

There is one more thing I want to say. Okay. Come on, sit.

Listen, I know there’s nothing I can do about how Eric lives his life. But I love the life I live now. And I need to focus on you and our baby. That

sounds mature. I know. Must be the hormones or something, right? Do you know that hormones make you even more beautiful? Oh. Mm hmm. So, here’s to us. And, uh, Precious little babe.

Oh my goodness.

Hey. Hey. I said the doctor will be right in. Oh. Thanks for checking. Yeah. Mom, I didn’t mean to upset you about having genetic testing being done. I mean, if you don’t want to. No, no, I, I do. I want to. Anything that ensures our baby is healthy. That’s great. I was just worried about Nicole. I mean, I know we don’t get along, but she and EJ seem really happy about having this baby.

And after everything she’s been through, I mean, seeing this baby to term, I just don’t want them to have any bad news.

Bollocks. Forgot my phone.

What’s wrong? What’s wrong? Everything. Everything. Gwen is my best friend. She was a wreck when I got home. How do you think that makes me feel, listening to her say she thinks maybe you don’t love her, maybe there’s a problem? Okay, calm down, calm down. Gwen is not going to get hurt. On the contrary, Gwen is going to get very, very rich.

This can work out, this will work out for all three of us. Age old adage, Leo. But she doesn’t know. Can’t hurt her. Now can we please stop talking about Gwen?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Don’t let me interrupt. Well, we didn’t know you were here. Yeah, uh, we haven’t had a chance to really be together. I’ve been working nights, so, uh… It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s just, um, I guess I’m a little down on romance after last night. Understandably. Lee, you told us your date was a disaster, but you didn’t…

Tell us why. What happened? For one thing, my perfect match tried to send me to prison.

Come on. I said I would buy you a drink and I meant it.

So you can gloat. Are you really surprised that I creamed you in court? I had an open and shut case against your brother. You knew that going in. Well, I was hoping that I could get a lighter sentence. After what he did to Paulina Price and her daughter? Giving Merrick Harver a head injury? There was no way.

Sit down.

Not gonna drink that. You have to let this go, Sloan. No, it’s not that. It’s just Then what is it?

I’m pregnant. Hey. Hey.

Tell me the rumors aren’t true. About me threatening Kristen with a gun? Yeah, it’s true. Brady, how could you be so unbelievably stupid? I

think Salem, of all places, would at least have one halfway decent criminal lawyer. It does. You’re not what I had in mind, Belle. Yeah, we need to talk. No, I need to talk to Harold about this open door policy in this house. I told him it was important concerning the father of your child. What about him?

You’re not actually going to let Brady go to prison, are you? Why not? What has he ever done for me?

I know. It wasn’t the wisest thing to do. Threaten Kristen with a gun, but Eric… Look, it was reckless, it was wrong, but I was desperate, okay? I needed Kristen to tell me where she stashed my kid. I get that, but you played right into her hands. I know, I know. It’s a bad situation. No, you only gave her ammunition.

To go after you.

Hey. I get it. I get why you did it. I’m worried about your kid. You were terrified that you might not ever see her again. And I… I understand that more now than ever. Why more than ever? Because I just found out that I’m going to be a father.

It’s good to see you again, Miss Walker. Thank you so much for taking the time because I know I’m But you are in demand, and now you finally get to meet the baby’s father, E. J. DiMera. Ingrid Sorensen. It’s nice to finally meet you in person. I’m sorry that I… Missed the first appointment and I was unavoidably detained.

No problem. You’re here now. I’m very glad to be, especially since Nicole has informed me how optimistic you are that she can carry this baby to term. I am, yes. And now that the pregnancy is more advanced, I can give you both a more clear view of the baby’s health and development. And, of course, we can also learn the baby’s sex.

Oh, well we decided to say no to that. We, we want to be surprised. And we’d be delighted with either a son or daughter. We just want the baby to be healthy. So, um, I’ll let you get on with your… Actually, Mr. DiMera, I’d like to start by examining you.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

So you’re going to be a father. Since when? Can you congratulate me before you start the Inquisition? Sure, congrats, but I’m, uh, I thought Nicole’s baby turned out to be EJ’s. True. Nicole’s baby’s not mine. But Sloan’s

is. So, you’re pregnant. You seem surprised. I suppose I am. I had you down as the ultimate career woman. And I was. Then, I met Eric Brady. So this is his child. Right. Are you going to keep it? Why would I not? Well, you and Eric haven’t been together that long and this couldn’t have been a planned baby.

Actually, it was. Oh, are you surprised? Surprise because we’re not married? No, of course not. And who am I to judge? Well, we’re both very happy. Eric’s wanted to be a father for a long time and it was just recently he thought he was the father of Nicole’s baby. But he isn’t. Nope, no he isn’t. BJ is the father of Nicole’s baby.

So let me guess, um, you got pregnant. To give Eric the baby that he didn’t have with Nicole.

I am not doing this just to make Eric happy. Having someone’s baby is a pretty serious favor. It’s nice of you to offer. I’m not being nice. I want this baby. Very bad. Both my parents are dead and Colin’s going away to prison. I just looked around and kind of had an a ha moment and realized I don’t have any family around.

So I decided to create one of my own. Okay. Well, congratulations. Thanks. I guess. No, I’m being sincere. Uh huh. No, you’re taking certain risks to get what you want, and I, I admire that. I actually wish I could do the same thing for myself. You want a baby. No, I haven’t that, that far ahead, but I just know that I’m alone, and I don’t care for it very much.

Mm. I used to have a family, too. Your idea of creating a new one, it has a certain appeal. So go for it. Well, I can’t do it alone. And you’re not seeing anyone? Uh, actually, I just started dating again. I had my first date last night. With Lee Shin. Oh, boy. How’d it go? Giant disaster. Tell me, what happened?

Started out alright. And then, um… Well, he caught me. Taught you. Doing what?

Melinda Trask tried to trick you into a confession? While she was recording us, yeah. Did her damnedest to try to get me to admit that I was behind the plot to kill Stefan DiMera. Isn’t that my contractment? It would have been, if I’d done anything wrong. I’m completely innocent. As you know. Wow, you were right about that being a bad date.

Yeah. The odd part is that, before I figured out what she was up to, I mean, we were actually hitting it off. Bonding over the, the food and the wine, our shared issues with Stefan and Gabby. Sounds like you have a fair amount in common, then. Yeah, um, I suppose so. So maybe you should give her another chance.

So, you and Sloane are having a baby together. Congratulations, man. Thank you. I’m really excited about it. You know, actually, I’m more excited than I thought I would be. Yeah, yeah, I’m sure you are. I just, I just hope that, um… You hope what? Don’t. No, no, no. Don’t listen to me. No, I’m in a bad place. I don’t say what you’re gonna say.

Come on. Right. All right. I hope that you are seeing Sloan for who she is, and I hope that you aren’t disappointed when it all goes wrong. So, I, I, Sloane is nothing like Kristen and Brady. Bad things happened to her and she lost her way, but she’s a good person. Okay. Then, then I am, I am happy that you two are going to be raising this child together.

Thank you. That’s great. Because I’m going to be leaning on you for advice. You’re going to lean on me for advice? Yeah. I don’t think my advice would be that helpful. I mean, I’m the guy that just threatened Kristen with a gun, you know? I’m the guy that just threatened to kill her. Yeah, it was just a threat, right?

I mean, come on, you were desperate to find out what she did with Rachel. You want to know the worst part? Rachel heard me say it. Oh, no. Oh, yeah. Were you able to convince Rachel that you didn’t really mean it? Obviously not, because Rachel was the one that called the cops. No, Rachel. Yeah, no, I’m looking at, uh, Attempted murder charges, man.

Oh, my God. Hey. Hey, you gotta get through to her. Can you convince her to retract her statement? That statement must be the only thing the police know. Eric, Eric, she, she, she, she told the police that she heard me threaten to kill Kristen. Yeah, and you can say you didn’t really mean it. What, what, what would she do?

Is she, am I supposed to have her go to the police and say she was lying when she actually wasn’t? What kind of father would, would, would make his kid do that? Father? What kind of father are you in prison? Eric, even if I ask her to change the statement, I’m really not sure that she would do it. She’s under Kristen’s control that much?

Seems so, yeah. Maybe she called the police on you. I know she had no idea what she was setting into motion and how they’re basing her statement by arresting you? Come on! It’s not just her statement, Eric. It’s also the fact that Kristen backed it up. Of course she did.

Okay, so what to do? Belle’s talking to Kristen right now. And I’m hoping to God she gets through to her. I’ll give you one thing. You got guts. But I asked you last night to salvage Brady and my… shared custody agreement, and you turned me down flat. And now you want me to help you get him out of this? Okay, I was angry on Brady’s behalf when I turned you down.

Okay, well, guess what? I’m angry on my behalf because I thought Brady and I had a deal. And then he pulled a gun on me. Brady was out of his mind with worry about Rachel when he turned you down. And you know what? You would have done the same thing if the tables were turned. You know what? Probably, Belle.

Probably. But it wasn’t me. It was him. So tell me this, Kristen. What exactly do you get by sending Brady to prison?

You want to examine me? In a manner of speaking. I’m just trying to get a full picture of your child’s health, which means we have to consider several factors. Ah, yes, I understand. Of course, of course, whatever you need. Which probably doesn’t involve jumping up in the stirrups, right doc? No, it doesn’t. I just need a sample of your DNA, Mr.

DiMera.

So you think Brady might actually be prosecuted? Attempted murder might not be a serious charge in DiMera land, but it is to the law. Come on, Kristen. You don’t really believe that Brady would have pulled that trigger on you. I don’t. Well, he wasn’t holding a gun against your ribs, Belle. Okay, what Brady did was reckless, and it was wrong.

And you pushed him to it. Oh my god, you gotta be kidding me. I did not kidnap Rachel. Yeah, you keep saying that. But there is blame here on both sides. So tell me, Kristen, what matters most to you? Having the upper hand with Brady? Or actually doing what’s in your own child’s best interest? Because that would be having both parents a part of her life.

Right? Mm hmm. So, what do you want me to do, Belle? Why don’t you just come out and say it? I want you to recant your statement to Detective Hunter, and not send the father of your child to prison.

Listen, I didn’t realize how bad things had gotten between you and Kristen. I just, I wish there was some way I could help. Look, man, I got myself into this. In more ways than one, so I’m gonna have to find a way to get my ass out of it. Yeah, well, listen, if you can think of anything that I can do, all you have to do is ask.

I appreciate that. Listen, um… I gotta, gotta get going. Sloane’s got her first appointment with her obstetrician and I don’t want to be there for her, okay? I get it. I get it. Hey, uh, how’s, how’s Sloane with all this? In what way? You know, I know you’re happy about the pregnancy, but honestly, she doesn’t really seem to be the kind of, you know, settling down type.

Yeah, I don’t think so either. But the pregnancy was planned. It was Sloane’s idea. Really? Yeah. Well, she saw how disappointed I was when we found out that Nicole’s baby wasn’t mine, and she knows how much I wanted to be a father. I mean, she wants kids, too. Especially after losing both of her parents and, you know, her brother.

Going to prison. So, she was kind of motivated to get pregnant. Initially, anyway, because of me. Wow, it’s actually pretty selfless of her. Yeah, she must, uh, obviously love you or something. Well, I love her too. So while you were on a date with this guy, you tried to record him confessing that he wants Stefan to be our dad?

Yep. Wow, and I thought I was ballsy. Well, it’s not something that I planned to do. I didn’t even know Lee was the man I was meeting until he showed up here. I’m sorry, I don’t follow. Uh, we were set up by a matchmaker and he and I were actually getting along in spite of the fact that I tried to send him to prison.

Wow, and that wasn’t, I don’t know, like an obstacle? No, it was when we first realized we were each other’s date. But, you know, we had so much in common and I found myself opening up to him and I was having fun. And I think he was too. And I think there was chemistry between us. And then I… And then you saw an opportunity to get a confession and jumped on it.

Yeah. And he caught on. Really quickly. And he ran out of here. I should have known trying to trap him was going to blow up in my face.

So if you were having fun and there was chemistry between the two of you guys, I mean, why’d you do it?

I’m sorry, did you just say I should give Melinda another chance? Okay, look, she shouldn’t have recorded you. Okay, that was obviously not a cool move. But, maybe she was just making an impulsive decision. You know, one that she regrets. And she’s been through a lot in the last few years. Been through what?

How do you know?

She had a daughter who was a nurse at the hospital. She had died in a freak accident. My God, that’s so sad. Yeah. And her name was Haley. She was a good friend of mine. She was, uh, She was smart, kind, and hopeful. But, she got her life cut short in a horrible way.

Losing a child must be the worst pain in the world. But that doesn’t change how I feel about last night. If I never see Melinda Trask again, it’ll be too soon.

You want my DNA? It’s nothing invasive, as I said. A simple cheek swab, that’s all. Um, but we already… We already did the paternity testing, so what more do you need to know? Uh, it says here that the hospital has DNA test results from Eric Brady, but nothing from Mr. DiMera. Why is that?

There is something that I didn’t tell you. Dr. Sorensen, when I found out I was pregnant, I was 99% sure that EJ was the father. But there was a slight chance that it could have been Eric Brady. I see. But once we ruled out that chance, we knew that… EJ was the father, obviously. Right, but I’d still like a DNA analysis on him.

Uh, why would you need that? I’d be looking for things like genetic markers for inherited diseases that you don’t have but could pass on to a child of yours. It would help me to know if an intervention would be necessary while the baby’s in utero. Now the goal of our appointment today is to ensure you…

Have a healthy baby. Well, we can’t argue with that, can we?

Yeah, I was taken aback when someone said she wanted to have our baby. Which goes to show you, people can change. They definitely can. Well, maybe Kristen will surprise you. I doubt that. But, I am happy for you. I know how long you have wanted this. And judging from the way your nieces and nephews feel about you, I think you are going to be one hell of a good dad.

Thanks. Tell me how things go with Belle and Kristen. I will. I meant what I said. I’ll do anything I can to help you. Thanks, man. But unfortunately… I think the only person that can help me is Kristen. I’m not sure changing my statement is the silver bullet you think it is. You see, Brady admitted that he wanted to kill me.

And Rachel heard him. Brady didn’t know if his daughter was alive or dead. He was at his wit’s end. And that’s what you’re gonna tell the jury? Yeah, it is. Because without corroborating testimony, Trask is gonna have a really hard time making that charge stick.

So what exactly do I get if I keep Brady out of jail? What do you get? Yeah. Are you talking about a deal? Well, he reneged on our shared custody agreement. I’ll change my statement if you get him to sign on the dotted line. Those are my terms. Well, if you do that, I’ll make sure Brady signs. Well, it’s gonna be hard, cause, uh, he tore it up.

Oh, I’m pretty sure I can get a fresh copy.

Great. And you really think that he’s going to sign? I think Brady’s gonna be very appreciative of what you’re doing for him, so yes, I think he’ll be more than willing to agree to the terms.

I don’t know what made me decide to record Lee. Instinct, maybe? I smelled blood and I just, I went for it. Yeah, I’ve been there a time or two. There’s just this part of me that just always needs to win, no matter what. And in this case, it overpowered my want to have a real human connection. I have to admit that when Lee stormed out of here, I was eating that lukewarm salmon alone.

I felt sad.

Look. I know Lee Shin might not be the most morally upstanding person. But, he sure is handsome. And he’s really rich. And as you saw last night, he can be pretty shrewd when he needs to be. What are you getting at? Look, I know that I don’t know you all that well, but… It’s occurring to me that he might be your perfect match.

Worth eating a little crow over? After last night, I don’t think eating any amount of crow would do it. I’m pretty sure he never wants to see me again. Okay. If you say so. I do. I went back to the matchmaker and she set me up with someone else. Ah! For when? Tonight. Matter of fact, uh, he’s meeting me here.

I’m really sorry. Your date didn’t work out. I know how much you want a fresh start after everything that happened with Kathy. I do. But I’m not giving up. Matchmaker’s already, uh, set up someone else for me to meet. Really? When? Oh, man. We should be there now. I’m sure you’ll be sad to see me go. Try to find some way to fill the empty hours, you two.

Good luck tonight. I hope this lady, uh, works out better. Well, as long as she doesn’t try to convict me of a felony. It’ll be a definite improvement

Okay, then I will have this sent to the lab, okay, and We’ll know the results soon in a couple of days most likely and now I’d like to do an ultrasound to get a look at your baby Oh, that’s, uh, that sounds wonderful. Be right back. Okay.

Oh my goodness. Are you excited? Very, very, very, very.

So, okay. You’re meeting this guy with a full martini under your belt. I can handle my alcohol. Yeah, no, me too. Me too. You know, once upon a time, I can’t now, but that’s okay. Just gotta take care of the bun in the oven. Speaking of, I have my first prenatal appointment today. Oh, well, I hope it goes well. I think it will.

I feel, I feel good. And Eric’s gonna be there too, so. Hmm. You know, this was, this was nice, talking with you. I think we should do it again sometime. Yeah, sure. I’d… I’d like that.

Give my regards to Eric. You know, I haven’t always seen eye to eye, but I know he’s a good man and I think he’ll be a great father. I agree. I think, I think so too. He’s very happy about the baby. Nice seeing you. I’ll, um, I’ll see you soon. Yeah.

Pasta primavera. From the other night. Two minutes in the microwave. Well, I really liked it the first time you made it, so. Thank you. Careful, it might be too hot.

No, perfect. Could it be hotter? Tripp, I just said it’s perfect. Okay, okay, I just wanted to make sure.

Hey, I was really sorry to hear about your friend Haley. Thanks. It was a total shock when she died like that. Are you guys really close? Yeah, you could say that. Um, actually… We’re married. Okay,

so how’d it go? Good news or bad news? Well, I hope you think it’s good news. What does that mean? Okay, I can make this whole thing go away and you won’t go to prison. What’s the catch? Kristen will change her statement if you agree to a shared custody arrangement.

So either I go to jail or I have to share custody with the maniac. Brady, you pointed a loaded gun at her and told her you were going to kill her and your daughter heard you say it. So you’re just not going to get everything you want. Alright, alright, alright, you… You’re right. So, if you sign this right now, Kristen will recant her statement.

Did he sign it? What is this? I’m sorry, did you two come here together? What difference does that make? Belle, if I sign this, there’s no guarantee that she’ll talk to the cops. Brady. No, no, listen, I’m not signing anything. Until she upholds her end of this crap bargain that you made.

Have fun in Statesville, Kristen. If I go, I’ll just grant custody of Rachel to John and Marlena, which would be within his rights. Fine. Fine.

What do you want, Kristen? D. A. Trask. Always a pleasure. I asked you what you want. I’ve been thinking about that statement I gave. It was pretty rattled in the moment, and I’m sure you understand considering the circumstances. But I feel like I over, I overstated things. What things? The point is, I would like to retract my statement.

I will not press charges against Brady. I still have your daughter’s statement. I’m sure once I explain to Rachel, she’ll feel as I do. So you were just wasting my time? I am so glad we understand each other. Your turn.

Okay. Okay. For a minute there, I you. Well, I was pretty surprised. I mean, you never told me you’ve been married before. It was just a way they could get a green card. Oh. Yeah, yeah, but immigration and naturalization, they don’t want Americans to be used by foreigners. You know, a way just to get into the country.

So we had to make it look like true love. And when we were doing that, uh, I kind of fell for her.

No wonder it was so awful when you lost her. Yeah, I definitely never forget her, that’s for sure. You know, but I tell myself that she’s at peace. And I know that she’d want me to be happy. And I am happy. I really am.

Well, thank you for the pasta. But now I have to get back to the office. Well, if you’re still awake when I get off duty, you wanna watch a movie or something?

It’s a date?

I hope Lee’s date works out well this time. He needs to find someone new. Yes. Too bad he wouldn’t even consider giving Hayley’s mom another chance.

I’m where you told me to be and this guy still has not shown up. Okay, okay. Just tell me again what I’m supposed to be looking for. Blue blazer. Got it.

It couldn’t be him. Not again. Could it?

Eric. Hi. Hi. How are you? I’m fine. I, uh, just had an appointment with the specialist. EJ was here too. Are you okay? She did a sonogram. And she said everything looks great but she wants to be extra careful, so she’s making EJ have DNA testing so she can be absolutely sure. It sounds like EJ found the right doctor.

He did. So what are you doing here? I have a doctor’s appointment. Oh, are you okay? He’s great. So am I. I’m pregnant.

Thank you again for coming back to Salem on such short notice. I had to put up with having a gourmet lunch served to me on your private jet. Poor me. Does that mean you could do me another favor? Depends what it is. It’s just Nicole. Who doesn’t want to know the sex of the baby, but frankly, I do. Now, I know this sounds frivolous, but when the time comes for us to decorate the nursery, it’d be nice to know if we’re going to be doing it with pinks or blues, you know?

How about yellow or green? We could do that. But still, I don’t suppose you could discreetly let me know when you know, boy or girl? I’m sorry, but Nicole is my patient. I can’t give out any information without her permission. Okay, then. You can’t blame the bloke for trying, though. And anyway, all that really matters is that I’m going to be the father of a healthy baby.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Here,

see. Thank you for the loaner. I got it dry cleaned. Great. I was just coming down to work, so. Oh. Is Chad here? Uh, no, he’s out. Uh oh. That’s a bummer.

Hey. Hello, man. Oh, I’m glad I caught ya. I wanted to say goodbye. I thought I missed ya. Well, uh, I was supposed to leave after my dad’s funeral, but I can’t now. Why? You didn’t hear? Lonnie’s missing. Wh what do you mean Lonnie’s missing? Well, she was due back at the prison last night, and she disappeared. No one knows where she is.

Hey, I’m sorry I’m so late. There was traffic from the airport. Any news on Lonnie? Nothing. And Rafe has been with Detective Hunter since last night. Searching everywhere. Oh, Eli, I’m scared. You and I both know. Lonnie would never run, and she knew exactly what she would do back at that prison. Yeah, she would never miss that deadline.

Not unless someone made her miss

it. I got it. I got it. She’s got a pulse, but it’s weak. Lonnie? Lonnie? Hey, Lonnie. Hey. Lonnie, it’s Rafe. Can you hear me?

What happened to you?

Nurse King isn’t answering it. I didn’t want to leave a message. It’s such a delicate topic. Can you imagine the poor thing? Carrying around that guilt all these years, just thinking that she’s responsible for her husband and her cat’s death. Carbon monoxide poisoning from a, from a space heater. Oh,

it’s Sean. Hi honey. Yeah, so have you and Steve had any luck finding Prentice?

What?

Holly, why, why am

I so tired all the time? Don’t worry darling, you’ll be feeling much better very soon. What is that you’re pushing? Well, it’s our handy dandy space heater. I know it’s summertime, but you can never be too warm, right?

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Our babies want to cuddle. Do you remember when we got all these adorable rascals and brought them home? No, no I don’t. Of course you do. They always used to compete to see who was gonna sit on your lap first.

That’s how I found all of you. That terrible, terrible day.

What are you talking about? Hey, look at how happy we look in this picture. That’s how I want us to be all the time, forever and forever. And I’m gonna make that happen. Right now.

How? Oh, Abraham. Everything’s gone so wrong on the outside. Everyone wants to take you away from me. But as long as we’re here together on the inside, then everything will be alright. Right?

I’m just not sure what you mean. You will soon, darling. Oh look, Dr. Marlena Evans called me earlier. I wonder what she wants. If what

you’re telling me is true, this is amazing. Uh, honey, can you just come home, please? Yeah. I love you too. Bye. What? What? What? John and Steve have found Jerry Prentiss and he insists that Abe is alive. Oh my God. I know. I know. He said he’d been lying about everything and the truth is that he did not see Abe on the dock and he did not see Abe go into the water.

He was being paid to say that. So the police would stop looking for Abe. Hey? By whom? Nurse King. No. Yeah. Yeah. Prentiss said that she was the one who kidnapped Abe from the hospital and had been holding him captive all this time. Well, they alerted the police, right? Well, yeah. Apparently, um, Steve tried to reach Jada, but she’s out looking for Lonnie, so he left a message.

Well, then we need to call Rafe. We need to get somebody out there now! Yes.

Okay, so the last time anyone saw Lonnie was when you left her alone at the park after the funeral. Mm hmm. When she was late getting back here, that’s the first place Rafe and I went to look, but there was no sign of her. We’ve been searching ever since. And now the federal marshal’s involved? Mm hmm. Rafe called me a little while ago to tell me.

He was trying to stall the people at the prison, but Lonnie, she was just too far overdue. Now she’ll never get that early release. Paulina, once she’s found, she will tell everyone what happened. All right, they’ll all know that it wasn’t her fault. Oh, Eli, do you really believe that? Absolutely. I mean, there is one good aspect to the Marshal being involved.

What’s that? Bonnie’s wearing an ankle monitor. If she has it on, they’ll find her. Please hurry. Thank you. The ambulance is on its way. How is she? Her pulse is still there, but she’s unresponsive. Any signs of trauma? No. No. No blood, no bruising. I don’t know what happened to her. Do you think I have your answer?

A syringe? Do you have a history of drugs? Absolutely not. I don’t know. People get started in prison, end up OD’ing. No. Not Lonnie. She would never. Lonnie? Lonnie, it’s Rafe. Listen to me. Help’s on the way, okay?

Can you hear me? Lonnie. Daddy.

You were searching for her all night. And still no sign of Lonnie.

Um, I’m sorry man. But I’ve sent me home to get some rest. As if I could do that. I just called Claire. She said she was, she wished she could be here to help. Oh man, I um, I’m sure you wish you had her here to lean on, but

you got me. Alright, what do you need from me? I don’t know. Just none of this makes any sense. I’m really worried about her. Well, Grafe might not be Commissioner anymore, but you know, him and Jada Hunter, they’re very, very hard working, experienced detectives, and they’re not gonna stop until they find her.

Yeah, thanks for the reassurance. What I could really use right now is a distraction. I mean, between my dad being gone and Lonnie being MIA, I just… I need something that’s gonna take my mind off it all for just a little while. How about a game of chess? I don’t, I don’t think I could concentrate. Well, how about some good news?

You and Stephanie just moved in together, right? How’s that going? Good. Great, yeah, no issues at all. You weren’t smiling when you said that. Everything’s really great? Yeah, I mean, um, The apartment is, uh, is really nice. It’s a good size for her, me, and the kids. I mean, the view is beautiful. I wasn’t talking about the apartment, Judd.

I want to know how the living arrangements are going. And I feel like there’s something that you’re not telling me, but I’m not, I’m not great at assessing this kind of stuff, so I could be wrong, but no, no, you’re not, you’re not wrong. Um,

the truth is, is, um, yeah, it, uh, it was going great, um, until Alex Kariakis moved in right across the hall.

Oh, I had the dry cleaner work on that coffee stand on the front. I’ll let Chad know. Cool. So you’re working away over here, huh? Anything you want to bounce off me real quick? I’m good. But um, I really do need to get back to it. Okay, cool. I’ll get out of your hair. But first, I’m gonna give you one last chance to change your mind about brainstorming.

I know we’re kind of competitors now, but maybe we can forget about that for a few minutes, right? Okay, I can take a hint. Can you? What is that supposed to mean? What’s with all the intrusive behavior lately? Are you really unaware of how obnoxious you’re being? Or are you trying to be a jerk?

Rafe isn’t picking up. You know, he and Jada are probably on their way to Nurse King’s place right now. Yeah, and Jada must have gotten Steve’s message.

Abe is alive. I don’t believe it. Okay, sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Oh, uh, uh, I gotta go. There’s an incoming patient to the ER. Possible overdose. Oh, here. Okay, I will call you if I have any news. Alright, great. Thanks. Mm

hmm.

Whitney Longer.

Did I really need this? I just, I just feel so tired. I just don’t want you to feel any pain, darling. I don’t know what I feel right now. You love me and I love you and that’s all that matters here on the inside. Everything is right.

I’m just a little sad. I keep thinking about that day that I left you all alone. For the longest time that’s all I could think about. How careless I was. How I failed you. It weighed so heavily on me, I didn’t think I could bear it. But now I think God has given me a second chance. To do what? To make sure that you’re never alone.

To go where we’ll always be together. For all eternity.

I have a little idea. Why don’t we, uh, watch a little Body and Soul? Yeah.

On second thought… Why don’t we just take a nap together? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that’s good.

I just smell…

Something doesn’t seem right. What? What do you mean? If Lonnie had her ankle monitor on, Rafe should have got a call with an update by now. I, I need to see what’s going on.

You go ahead. I’ll catch up.

Eli. Finally, you answer. What’s going on with the search? Yeah, I know. I’m sorry I haven’t been in touch. Things have been happening fast. What things? I’m at the hospital. They just brought Lonnie in. You need to get here.

Hi. Hey, how is she? Uh, well, her pulse is weak. Her breathing is very shallow. Her body temperature is extremely low. The EMT said they thought it was a possible overdose. This was found off the scene. Maybe you can figure out what was in it and give her an antidote. If you only hope.

I’m not sure if you knew this, but uh, but Stephanie and Alex actually dated before she and I got together. Was it serious? Yeah, for him. Yeah, he was always a player, and um, never wanted to be with anybody exclusively. And then, he meets Stephanie, and suddenly she’s the one. Well obviously, things didn’t work out between the two of them, so…

What, is he just not gonna give up that easily? Stephanie broke up with him because of something he did. He apologized, but by then she and I were already dating. So, where does that leave the two of them? I guess they’re friends. Um, which he’s not okay with. You know, he’d be…

But he’s been, he’s been cool up until he moved, uh, moved in across the hall from us. And it’s really been that bad? We took the apartment two days ago. Then he’s already shunk to the door half naked to shower and borrowed a robe of mine without asking. Hold up, your shower? Yeah, I don’t know, apparently he didn’t have any hot water, but we had just ordered Chinese food.

He said he hadn’t eaten and insisted on joining us. And this…

This guy eats a ton of my mushu pork, has several glasses of our wine, and then uh, Stephanie finally had to give him the boot. Wow. Don’t get me wrong, I’m, I’m not threatened by him. Stephanie made her choice about who she wants to be with. I just don’t know if this idiot’s ever going to get the message.

You think I’m a jerk? You know damn well you’ve been acting like one. And it’s not like Chad and I weren’t cool with you getting an apartment in the same building, or at least I was. But ever since you moved in, you’ve been using our place like an extension of your own. You help yourself to our food, our shower, Chad’s robe.

Which I had cleaned. So not the point. Steph, I don’t know, I thought I was just being… Neighborly. Did you? Yeah. Really? I mean, just now. You show up here, I say I’m sitting down to work, and you push past me without being invited in. Then you ask if I want to brainstorm. I say no. And you ignore that, and you’re still freaking here.

Do you really think that’s neighborly? Oh, my God. No, you’re right. Um… I am being a total jerk.

Kayla rushed that syringe over to the lab. But what if we’re too late? How’s Lonnie? Yeah, did you find out if, uh, what she was injected with? Yeah, that syringe was filled with a sedative. A very powerful one. So we administered another drug to reverse the effects. And she’s doing, well, she’s responding well.

Good, good. So she’s out of the woods? Well, I’m going to keep her here overnight just for observation. But I think she’s going to be fine. Oh, thank God. Can we see her? Uh, Eli and Paulina, they’re on their way. You sure haven’t checked your messages, have you? Well, no, we’ve been focused on Lonnie. Why, what’s up?

Abe is alive. What? Yes, Nurse King still has him. She’s the one that took him from this place. And he’s still at her place now. Oh, my God. Oh,

God. Ssssss. Abe? Abe, can you hear me? Abe, open the door!

Abe? Hey, Abe! Sharma Maeve, what are you doing in here? No, no, it’s Marlena Evans. Look, the smell in here is terrible, it’s toxic. You and Abe have to get out of here. This is my husband. No one’s going anywhere.

You admitting you’re being a jerk. Was that for real, or are you just telling me what you think I want to hear? No, Steph, it honestly didn’t even occur to me until you called me out on it. But yes, now I do see that I really stepped over the line. What do you think that’s about?

Sounds like a question Dr. Evans would ask. You know, I’ve been seeing her to work on my issues. Try and get a handle on why I do what I do. Hopefully make a change for the better. So if Marlena asked you that question, if she asked you why you continually and infuriatingly step over the line, what would you say?

I don’t know, Steph. Maybe because I’m jealous of what you and Chad have. And maybe not on a conscious level, but yeah, I had a chance to be with the woman of my dreams and I blew it. So yes, I think it may be possible that part of me is trying to keep you two from having what I wanted for us. And if you didn’t call me out on it right now, I probably would have kept right on doing it because I’m not really that aware.

No. I’m sorry. No. not what? Excuse me? First of all, there is no scenario in which you would have kept right on doing it because Chad wouldn’t tolerate that. And neither would I. And second, I can’t believe someone as smart as you would continue to be so dense that you would Keep on being a total pest like this and think that it was adorable and charming Look Alex, I want us to be friends Just the other day I told you that I thought that we were in a good place and how I’d hoped that now with Chad and I living together Nothing would change But it is changing And not for the better.

Steph, that was never my intention. To alienate you, I mean. So talk to Marlene and figure this out. Because what you’re doing needs to stop. Otherwise we won’t just be ex lovers. We’ll be ex friends, too.

Listen to me, Amy. Ask for good news to distract you and I’m going on about Alex. I’m sorry. No, Chad, it’s fine.

Hello? Theo, uh, hi. I just wanted to let you know that, uh, Rafe and Jada found Lonnie. Oh, thank God. Is she okay? Well, she’s admitted to the hospital, but she’s gonna be fine. Yes, that’s, that’s the best news ever. Yeah, and there’s more, honey, so maybe you could come down to the hospital and I could fill you in?

Yes, I am, I’m on the way. And Kayla. Thank you. You’re welcome. See you soon.

They found Lonnie. She’s in the hospital right now, but she’s okay. I need to get there, like, right now. Yeah. I’ll give you a ride. Let’s go. I’m coming, sis. I’m coming.

My sweet baby girl. Is she asleep or? I don’t know. I thought Rafe and Kayla would be here to give us an update.

Mom? Mom? Eli? Oh, baby, we’re here. We’re here. I have never been more happy to see you. How do you feel? Should I get a doctor? No. I’m okay. Oh. What happened? Nurse King, she, she drugged me. What? She was, she was trying to kill me. Wait, when? Oh, you know what, Eli? She’s exhausted. You know, maybe the questions can wait.

Um, no, I’m… I have something to… I have something to tell you. Oh, honey, honey, Lonnie, sweetheart, I want to hear everything you have to say, but, you know, now is not the time. It’s important. Lonnie, your mom’s right. All right, why don’t you get some rest, and I’ll have Ray fill me in. Uh huh, we’ll talk later when you’re feeling better.

Listen to me, Mom. Dad is alive. Hi.

Hi. What did you say? I found my father. And he’s alive. Well, this is the drug talking, right? She’s confused? No, not at all. She’s telling the truth.

You get out of here, Charlemagne. I mean it. No. No, look, we’ve got to get this thing turned off, and we’ve got to get some air circulating in here. Stay away from that heater. This air is toxic, don’t you understand? You think I don’t know that? Listen to me. You came to me for help ages ago, and I… I didn’t help you.

I failed you. Give me a chance to help you now. What are you talking about? You were in so much pain. Your husband had died and you felt that you were responsible. You blamed yourself for it. You came to me to help you deal with the pain you were feeling. It’s all my fault. He died alone. They all died alone.

This is my chance to fix it. I can fix it. No, no, no. Don’t you understand? It was an accident. I’m so sorry, my love. We should have been together. And this time we will be. This is my chance to make it right. Whitley, listen to me. It was not your fault. When your husband died, it was a terrible, tragic accident.

Uh, I, I do remember coming to you for some help. Okay, let me help you now. I can be there for you. I can, I can help you through this terrible pain that you’re feeling. Just, just trust me.

Freeze! I

really just said, our father’s alive. He is. There was a witness that saw Abe fall in the river. He lied. How do you know that? Because I talked to him. Jerry Prentiss? When? After the funeral. I, I left the park and I went to his apartment. Um, I had a hunch he was hiding something and I got him to admit it. He admitted it to John and Steve also.

They tracked him down in L. A. and he told them that he made up the story about Abe drowning and that he planted Abe’s blood and the hospital bracelet on the dock. But why? It’s Nurse King, Mama. She paid him to fake Daddy’s death. Well, where is he? Where is my Abraham? Well, I need to get to him. We think that he’s at Nurse King’s apartment.

Rafe and Jada just left and hopefully they will end this nightmare once and for all. She’s, she’s had daddy all this time and when I found out I, I went straight to her apartment but she drugged me as soon as I got there and, and before I could get him out of there. Mom, she, she’s been sedating him and she’s been telling him that she’s you and he’s all turned around.

Oh my, precious husband is…

Drop it and put your hands up.

I’ll do it. I’ll blow us all to kingdom come. Oh, no, no, no, no, Whitley, don’t. Jada, You flick that lighter, and this whole place will be a giant fireball. We came to rescue Abe, and we are not leaving without him. No. No, I will not be alone. I did all of this so I can be with my husband, and you will not take him away from me.

Who

are all these people? Miss King. Put the lighter down. No! Now all of you get out! Get out! Quickly, quickly. I’m not going to leave you alone. I’m not. I will stay right with you, but… Abe. Abe has family. They’re worried about him. Abe needs to go home. He is home. He’s home here with me. And I’m taking him and all of you with me right now.

If you back up or we’re all going straight to God right now. No, Whitney, I want you to think about who you are. I’ll remind you, Whitney, you’re a nurse. You’re a nurse. Your job is to help people that are feeling vulnerable. That’s what you do. That is your code. I don’t know if this is right. Nobody’s going to hurt you, but I can help you through this.

And I will. I will. All you’ve got to do is give me the lighter.

Message received. Loud and clear. And I will now get out of your hair. Really this time.

Can I ask you one question first?

Sure. Chad and I have been together for a while. Things between you and me have basically been fine. So why do you think this is coming up now? I’m not sure, Steph.

But maybe because I’ve now seen you two move in together, take that next big step, and it’s driving home to me that I’ll never have what you guys have. Look, Alex, you can be a lot sometimes, but despite your flaws, you’re a serious catch. Okay? One of these days, you’re gonna meet someone who’s perfect for you.

Yeah, I don’t know about all that,

but… Look, the only thing that’s important to me right now is having your friendship. I hope I still do. You still do, but… No more being a jerk. Exactly. Bring it in.

Look, what are you doing?

What the hell’s the matter with you? You kidding? Dad? It is not what you think. What I think is that, is that he can’t take no for an answer. So he forced himself up. Dude, that’s not what happened. Shut up. Alex and I were just having a very productive talk about boundaries. Boundaries. What? Boundaries. Well, he had his hands all over you.

I was the one who hugged him. Because Alex understands now that he was crossing a line and he promised he’ll stop. Stephanie made me realize that I’ve been a jerk lately. So I want to sincerely apologize to you as well, Chad. Now I know my actions and behavior has shown otherwise, but… I am rooting for you guys.

Oh, I hope that’s true. It is. I came by to drop off your robe. Thank you. I’m leaving now.

Thank you. For what? I’m not telling him to get lost for good.

I guess I overreacted a little bit. You sure did. Abraham is alive! Alive! Tell me I’m dreaming, and please, please, God, let him be okay. I know, it’s a lot to take in. Why don’t I take you to the nurse’s station? You can sit down and we’ll wait for word, okay? Oh, there’s no way I could sit, not till I lay my eyes on my husband and know he’s okay.

Oh, oh. We need to give these two a moment alone. Oh, oh. Precious darling girl, you rest up, you’re gonna need that strength soon, when you come home to your two beautiful babies. You take care of her, she’s a hero. Yeah, she sure is.

You just couldn’t wait for backup, huh? You had to go straight to that nurse’s place? Hmm. My father. Wait, say that again? My father. He’s safe. You’re both safe.

Yes, Captain. The location is secure. We’ll be transporting the prisoner soon. And, uh, Put the mental health team on alert.

Miss King, You’re going to get the help that you need. But first I need to read you your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right.

You have the right to have a lawyer present. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you.

Paulina? Oh, I’m so glad you’re here. Where’s Lenny? She’s okay, right? Yes, yes, yes. Eli’s in with her now. Oh, yes, honey. She’s going to be just fine. Yes, yes, but there’s more. That’s what Kayla said on the phone. What are you guys talking about? Oh, Theo, it’s a miracle. What is?

Dad? Abraham!

What’s going on here? What’s going on is that you’ve come home to us, my sweet husband. You’ve come home.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey, Sweetness. Greetings from La La Land. You’re in Los Angeles? Well, well, did you find Jerry Prentiss? No, not yet. After John and I missed him at the bus terminal in Salem, we hopped on a plane, took a gamble that he might be headed here to resume his acting career. Well, that sounds like a good bet. Yeah, we’ll see.

Bus from Chicago should arrive any minute. Well, hopefully he’ll be on it and you’ll be able to ask him what he’s hiding about Abe. That’s the plan. Okay, keep me posted. Oh, and Steve. I love you. I love you too, baby.

Figured you could use this since you didn’t sleep on the flight. Well, I noticed you were wide awake too. Well, we’ll rest once we get some justice for our buddy. Chicago bus just arrived. Keep your eyes peeled for our man.

Oh.

Oh. Oh. Hey. I came to see how you’re doing. Very kind of you. Come in. Hey.

So, I, I know that was difficult for you yesterday, but you got through it. Did my best. Yeah. Paulina, I’m here for you, okay? We, we’re all here for you. Whatever you need. I appreciate that, but, uh, right now I’m so worried about Lonnie. She left, right? She went back to prison? No, she did not go back to prison.

What do you mean? I mean, as of right now, I have no idea where my daughter is.

Good morning, everyone. Oh, who’s ready for breakfast? What a glorious day, and what a glorious way to start our day with a heart healthy bowl of oatmeal. And you know, I always take good care. Take care of you, Abraham, my darling, darling husband. We are just, we’re so blessed. First, we had a visit from your loving son and, and now we get to spend time with our beautiful daughter.

Well,

shall we dig in? Bon Appetit, everyone. There you go. Isn’t this nice? Well… Eat up!

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

So, Lonnie is missing? That doesn’t make any sense. It sure doesn’t. I, I, I couldn’t imagine, you know. What could have happened to her? Okay, okay, why don’t you just walk me through it, okay? So you told me that she, that after the funeral she wanted to stay in the park alone, right? To gather her thoughts? Yeah, but she knew she couldn’t stay too long because Rafe was coming here to take her back to prison.

The last thing she said to me was, Don’t worry, I’ll be there in time, but she never showed. She’s been MIA all night. Okay. Okay, but we both know that she would never run. Oh, no, of course not, Lonnie. Lonnie would never do anything that would keep her away from her babies one minute longer than she needs to be.

So, did she try to call? She’s on furlough. Doesn’t have a phone. Oh, it’s just, it’s killing me to just sit here and wait. Oh, oh, Rafe said there’s no need to panic, but how can I not? Well, and I’m sure Rafe has every available officer out looking for her. No, it’s just him and Jada and Theo. Rafe doesn’t want to get the Salem PD involved because then they’d be obligated to report Lonnie missing.

Of course, of course, I see. Rafe promised me that he would find my daughter before anyone realized that she was gone. But why can’t three people search an entire town? Helena, I am sure they’re doing their damnedest, you know? You’re just gonna have to give it a little bit more time. There is no time. The prison called yesterday, asking where Lonnie was.

Rafe, he’s trying to solve him. He’s doing his best to get this solved before it does become a police matter.

Hey, thanks.

I just came by to pick up a few things from my office.

Any word on the search for Lonnie? Nothing yet. Oh,

God. It’s the U. S. Marshal. Again. When they didn’t return Lonnie to prison last night, they brought out the big guns. This guy’s been blowing up my phone ever since. I don’t know how much longer I can stall him. Yeah, kind of tough not being able to use the department’s resources. It is. If we make this official police business, then this marshal’s gonna know what’s going on.

Yeah, and then Lonnie will be considered a fugitive. There’s just no damn way she would’ve run. Then how do you explain her going missing? I’ve only got one explanation. She’s in serious trouble.

Wasn’t it so nice for our daughter to come and visit us all the way from Maryland after being released from prison? Oh, oh, but she’s refusing to eat just like she did when she was a baby. Look at you. You were so, so skinny. Well, Mama’s just gonna have to help you out the way she did when you were a baby.

So, here we go. Here comes the airplane. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Look what you made your poor mother do. You are not my mother.

Hi. Hey. Come on in. I was just texting John. Yeah, I just got off the phone with Steve. It seems that he and John are in Los Angeles trying to intercept Jerry Prentiss at the bus station. Let’s hope they succeed.

Dammit. Guess we’re wrong about Prentiss heading to L. A. Not much chance we’re gonna find him now. Oh, God.

Jerry Paredes. Who wants to know? Two of Abraham Carver’s best friends.

What’s this all about? How’d you find me? You were in a big hurry to leave Salem, weren’t you Jerry? I needed to get out here for work. The reason you shot out of your window so fast is so we couldn’t question you about Abraham. I already told the police everything I know. No, not everything. You didn’t tell them you were hanging around outside Abe’s hospital room the day he disappeared.

That’s because I wasn’t. That’s not what our eyewitness says, punk. What eyewitness?

Nurse King said she saw this young man hanging around Abe’s hospital room. The day that Abe disappeared, right. And you know, right from the get go, John and Steve thought that the whole thing didn’t add up, what happened to Abe. We all felt that way. Yeah, so they decided to look at everything again, starting with Nurse King’s statement.

You know, the day of his funeral, they laid everything out at our house, and they were looking at it again when Chanel stopped by. She just wanted to get photos for Abe’s funeral, but she gave them some new information. What did she say? That Nurse King seemed very interested in Abe. Maybe even obsessed.

What does that mean? Well, she worked as a volunteer on his campaign. She was at the park the day that he and Paulina exchanged vows. She watched the whole thing. And then, when Abe passed away, she personally went to Pauline’s apartment to give her condolences. Well, all those, all those things individually aren’t a concern, but when you put them together…

Right. It certainly aroused Steve’s suspicion, so he came here yesterday to talk to her. Oh. And is that when she brought up Prentiss? Yeah. Uh, and then she took off looking for me to tender her resignation. She’s resigned? Yeah. I mean, it’s surprising, isn’t it? I mean, she’s worked here for 15 years. She was a stellar employee.

There was beautiful, glowing reviews of her. Did she get a job that was better for her somewhere else? I don’t think so. Then why would she leave? Well, she said that, um, she wanted a fresh start. And that Salem wasn’t the same since Abe died. Well, that’s true. Does it seem a little odd to you that she would resign?

Right around the time that he died? Well, that’s what I thought. But she really talked about him like they were friends. I mean, maybe they were closer and she knew him better than we think. Look, Abe has hosted a number of engagements over the last 15 years. I’ve never seen her in any, and I don’t think I’ve ever heard him mention her name.

You think we should be worried? Well, no, I’m not, I’m not sure. I don’t think… I

just remembered. I treated her. She was a patient of mine. Lonnie, I know you grew up thinking that my sister Tamara was your mama. But I’m the one that gave birth to you. You’re insane. Oh, please don’t be upset. I thought we moved past all of this, remember? You know how sorry I am that I kept that secret for so long.

Now the truth is out. The truth. None of this is even remotely true. Please. Remain calm. Your father is still recovering. Recovering. He would recover a lot faster if you would stop shooting him up with drugs, keeping him catatonic. I take excellent care of Abraham. You are holding him prisoner while the rest of his family thinks he’s dead.

Yeah, that’s right. I spoke to your sidekick, Jerry Prentiss, and he told me all about how you’ve been pretending to be Paulina. You are a liar and a fake and not a thing like my mother. Lonnie’s

in trouble. I can feel it in my bones. Like you said, she’d never run. So, where in God’s name is she? She

just lost her father. You know, maybe, the thought of immediately going back to prison was too much for her. Maybe she just wanted to take a little time Rafe.

I know, but sometimes when we’re grieving, we don’t think straight, and we just, we do something spur of the moment without even thinking it through. Um, Lonnie knows better than anyone what missing that deadline would mean for her future. And besides, Rafe vouched for her, and there’s no way he’d let her down like this.

No, if my daughter isn’t making contact, it’s because she can’t. Look, um, just because she hasn’t contacted you doesn’t necessarily mean there’s anything wrong. You know, I stayed up all night thinking of a scenario where, when Lonnie wasn’t either hurt or in harm’s way and I couldn’t, not a single one. If you think Lonnie’s in trouble, then maybe we should use the department’s help.

I am still holding out hope that there’s a reason that she has gone AWOL. I know we’re under the gun here, but I don’t want to risk it. I don’t want to add time to her sentence and keep her away from her kids. Well then, maybe we’ll just have to find her ourselves. Thank you. Thank you for everything. But I got this, alright?

So you go on home. Get some sleep. Okay. You couldn’t even tell me to take it easy when you were my boss. What makes you think you can do it as a civilian? I’m sorry, that wasn’t funny. No. No, no, no. No, it’s okay. Like I said, I don’t regret anything that I have done. And if I had the chance, if I could go back, I would do it all over again.

And after we find Lonnie, I would love to do it again and again. All the time. Reef Hernandez? Yes. I’m Sam Gerard, United States Marshal’s Office. I understand you have my prisoner, Lonnie Grant? So, where is she?

Did you hear me, Commissioner? Where is Lonnie Grant? Inspector Gerard. I’m Detective Hunter. Why don’t I get you some coffee? You told the Maryland warden that you would have the prisoner back in her cell by Lights Out. Lights Out was at 11 last night. I’ve been trying to reach you since then. Left several messages.

Yeah, I’m sorry about that. I’m Yeah, um So what happened? The acting? Mayor here recently relieved me of my duties, so things have been a little hectic around here. The terms of Lonnie Grant’s release clearly state that she is to return to prison immediately following her father’s funeral. She is in violation of those terms.

You need to turn her over. Yeah, I’m afraid I can’t do that. Why not? Because I don’t know where she is.

It seems as if our little girl is confused. So tell her, Abraham. Tell her who I am. Daddy, you don’t have to do anything she says. She’s crazy. Wow. Not only is Lani confused, but she’s also very disrespectful. So while you’re clarifying things for her, remind her of the Fifth Commandment. Thou shalt honor thy father and thy mother.

Look, I have utmost faith in Rafe. He’s going to find Lonnie, no doubt in my mind. I’m surprised to hear you say that. Why? Look, I know Rafe is a good man and he cares about me and my family. I do not question his character or integrity. But, his detective skills, um. Oh, what about them? I’m trying to find a way to put this delicately.

Forgive me. Okay. Well, I mean, don’t worry about that. Whatever it is you have to say, just say it. I just don’t understand how you can be so sure Rafe is going to find my daughter when he failed to find your son.

My son?

Oh, he went missing a while back and the police still haven’t found him. Am I right?

Yeah, yeah. You’re right. You’re right. They didn’t find him.

And I’m okay with that. Because I know with absolute certainty that he’s alive.

Let me let you in on a little secret, fellas. Whitley King is a liar. I’m not surprised you tried to throw me under the bus. Well, here’s our little secret. We’re going to throw you under a bus, literally, unless you start cooperating. Wait, wait, wait. Why would Nurse King say that she saw you outside Abe’s hospital room if she didn’t?

Why else? Because she’s trying to throw suspicion off of herself. I mean, hello? She works there. She knows exactly how to get a patient past the security cameras. So you’re going on record right now saying Nurse King kidnapped Abe. What possible motive would she have to do that? You’d have to ask her. But probably because she’s freaking nuts.

Hang on a second. Are you saying that she killed Abe too? No, no, no, no, no, no. Nobody killed Abe. Your friend is alive.

Whitley King was one of your patients? According to our file, we had several sessions.

Sessions in the fall of 2021. Well, that explains it. Yeah. That’s why I am only remembering it just now. In the fall of 2021, you were possessed.

Our girl’s got a bit of the devil in her, doesn’t she? Look at her. All that fire in her eyes. Untie me, you delusional bitch, and I’ll show you fire. Oh, my. Listen to that language. We raised her to be God fearing, humble, and honest. The only one not being honest here is you. Lord, give me the strength to hold my temper and my tongue while my husband tells her the truth.

Go ahead, honey. Tell her who I

am. I, uh, I don’t know. I, I don’t know who anyone is anymore.

Daddy. You are Abraham Carver. You are my father and my hero. You are the finest man I have ever known. Dad, I’m your daughter. Lonnie Price Grant. I am your family. This woman is not. She is not my mother and she is not your wife. She’s a crazy psychopath who kidnapped you. Enough! Enough! Enough! Don’t you say another word to him.

Don’t you say another word. As God is my witness, you will be so sorry.

Lying to a federal agent is a felony. I’d arrest you right now. But I have a prisoner to find. We want Lonnie found just as badly as you do. I really hope that’s true. What is that supposed to mean? Grant is a friend of yours, yes? Yeah, I don’t see how that’s relevant. Sometimes we do favors for our friends.

But I might remind you. That harboring a fugitive is also a felony. Lonnie is not a fugitive. She’s missing, okay? So you’re telling me she didn’t run? No, absolutely not. As you know, Lonnie is a model prisoner. She’s up for parole in six months. She’s got two kids back home who she’s dying to see. She would never do anything to jeopardize that.

She already has. And this department is, at best, indifferent to, and at worst, complicit in her escape. If you would just listen to You deliberately deceived the Maryland Department of Corrections and the United States Marshal Service. And you helped him do it. So now, I am going to use the full force of my agency to apprehend the fugitive and make her return to prison.

She’ll remain for a very long time. Okay, Inspector Giroir. Listen, before you make that call,

hear me out, okay? Lonnie used to be a cop. And just, just like the three of us, she risked her life to protect and to serve. She’s a convicted murderer. She killed a man who abused and terrorized her mother. And then Lonnie did the responsible thing and she turned herself in. Lonnie is a good person and a model citizen so I am sure that she has a damn good reason for not being here.

Yeah, Detective Hunter and I, we spent all last night looking for her. Not because we thought that she had fled, because we were worried about her. Worried that something horrible happened. So please, just will you help us find Lonnie before it’s too late.

I’ll make a call. And track Grant using her ankle bracelet. Thank you. If I get a location, we’re gonna head over there together. So I can take your friend to prison. Be

so sure your son is alive if the police can’t find him. They can’t find him. Because I hid him. After I found out that he had faked his own death, to frame Brady for his murder. Oh God. It’s a really long, upsetting story, and after I had heard the whole thing and I knew what he had done and why he did it, I realized that he needed serious help, so his father and I had him sent to a Private psychiatric facility in Europe.

Oh, Kate. I’m so sorry. I had no idea. No, I know. I know. And the only reason I’m telling you now is so that you’ll understand that I do know what you’re going through. When I thought Philip was dead, the pain that I felt, I know that’s the pain you’re feeling now. And I don’t want you to feel that way. I don’t want anyone to feel that way.

But, I have to face facts. What if Lonnie is Lonnie? Lonnie is smart. And Lonnie is strong. And she’s resilient. And I think she’s fine. I just pray that you’re right. I am right. Because God never gives us too much to handle. And you have had more than enough heartbreak for losing me.

Abe’s alive. You told the police that you saw him fall into the river. I lied. I know. To do something like that. Okay. Okay. Nurse King hired me to fake Abe’s death. Okay. I, I planted the blood and the house would bracelet at the docks blood. Where’d you get his blood from? Her, but, but don’t worry. Okay. He, he’s fine.

Oh, uh, relatively. I mean, she’s had him at her home on some pretty heavy sedatives. Oh my god, I’m gonna kill this guy. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. So listen, let me get this straight. This woman paid you to make us all believe that Abe is dead. Why would you sign on to something like that? I signed on to what I thought was an acting gig, okay?

She, she hired me to, to play Abe’s son while she played his wife. And, and, I, I, I thought it was helping him out. I thought it was some kind of like, Or, or, or whatever. And when you realized it wasn’t, you didn’t go to the police? I mean, I wanted to, but she said the, the cops would never take my word over hers.

And that I would go to prison. And, uh, I’m surprised you guys don’t know all of this. I, I told Abe’s daughter already. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You talked to Lonnie? When? Uh, yesterday. Uh, when she came to question me. Lonnie’s not a cop anymore. Yeah, well, she, she came to my door, uh, wanting to talk about Abe.

Wait, and you told Lonnie that Whitley King was holding her father hostage at her apartment? Yeah, and she ran over there to save him.

Alrighty, I suppose breakfast is over. It’s time for Paulina to clean up. You are not Paulina! Your name is Whitley King. You’re a nurse at University Hospital. Do you hear me? You are Whitley King. You’re a nurse. You are not my mother and that is not your husband.

Oh my God.

Nurse King, she was one of the patients that I treated when I was possessed. I shudder to think what I would have said to her. It wasn’t you, Marlena. You could not beat yourself up for the things that you said and did during that time. Let’s

see. Oh, dear God. A poor woman. What a horrible way to lose the man you love. Carbon monoxide poisoning. From a malfunctioning… Space heater, he went to sleep and never woke up. Oh, she and her husband, they had three cats. They died too.

I’m Whitley Kane. Yes. And you need help. I’m afraid you’re confused again. I’m the one that helps people. I helped your father. You kidnapped him. No, no, I saved him. There was this man who hurt him and he wanted to hurt him again, so I saved him. I brought him here and, and, and been taking care of him. He’s getting better.

Oh, Abraham, tell her. Keep telling me. You keep telling me to tell her something. You keep saying you’re, you’re my wife. I don’t know. I don’t know who you are. Daddy, it’s okay. This is all going to be over soon. Okay? I’m going to take care of you. No! I’m the one who takes care of him! Please! Nurse King, listen to me.

I used to be a police officer here in Salem. And I have a lot of friends on the force. Including the commissioner. Okay? If you let us walk out of here, I will go straight down to the station and I will explain everything that happened. I will make sure that nothing bad happens to anyone. Okay? But you, you have to do your part.

You have to set us free. No. Never. No.

When Phillip went missing, I just… I went into a deep denial. You know, I refused to accept that he was gone. Until that became impossible. Why? How so? All of the evidence continued to mount. The trail of his blood leading down to the river. The bloody knife covered in Brady’s fingerprints that was found at the scene of the crime.

I mean, the police couldn’t find his body, but of course now, I know why. But when they found his prosthetic leg in the water, I had to accept the fact that my son is dead. Until I found out that wasn’t true, that he’s alive and…

What are you thinking? That your son’s case… It sounds a whole lot like what happened to my Abraham.

Nurse King, this has to end. No it doesn’t. Nobody knows you’re here. As I’ve said, they are out there looking for me. And not just the police, the FBI, the U. S. Marshals. What are you talking about? They let me out of prison to go to my father’s funeral. But I was supposed to be back yesterday. And by now, I’m sure that there is a full fledged manhunt.

And with all those officers out there, it is only a matter of time before they find me. How? How? How will they find you? I’m wearing an ankle monitor. They can track my exact location.

Everything was fine. You ruined everything. Your father and I were building a beautiful life together until you showed up. You have ruined everything. Miss King, please let us go. No. No, you shut up. I’m not listening to you anymore.

Nurse King confessed in therapy that she woke up one morning for her shift at the hospital and their apartment was freezing. They’ve been having some issues with the heat for a while. Her husband wasn’t feeling well that day, so he stayed home from work. She set him up on the couch along with her cats.

Cut out the new space heater she’d bought. It was a ventless gas heater. Apparently, there was some sort of a malfunction. And the first time Whitney told anyone the whole story was in the session with you. Yeah. She never admitted that to the police. She was too ashamed. She believed that the death of her husband and her pets was her fault.

Well, but the devil did nothing to disabuse her of that notion. I’m sure that’s true. Probably toyed with her. Used her guilt to torture her, made her suffer as much as he possibly could.

I told you everything I know. And if you have any more questions, talk to Nurse King. Can I, can I go now? No. You’re not going anywhere, punk. Because you have aided and abetted a kidnapping. If you come back to Salem with us, I’ll let Rafe know he needs to get over to Nurse King’s right away. Rafe’s not on the force anymore.

Slipped my mind. I need a call.

It’s Steve. I got a location on Grant. Let’s go.

I am begging you. Please don’t do this. This will all be so much easier if you just close your eyes and drift away. So you’re gonna kill me, huh? What do you think that’s gonna do to my father? Believe me, I, I didn’t wanna do this, but you left me with no choice. No, no, no, no.

Left a message for Jada. We can’t sit around here and wait for a call back. No, you need to get ahold of someone in Salem. Tell him that Abe is alive and being held against his will and already on it.

Alina. I was just trying to reassure you. I know, I know you didn’t mean to get my hopes up about Abe. But Kate, there are a number of similarities between his case and Phillip’s. Abraham’s hospital bracelet. was found on the docks along with his blood. So everyone just assumed he drowned. Yes, that’s true.

But a witness saw him fall into the water, but his body just like Phillips was never found. All I’m saying is, it’s not such a huge leap to think that if your son can be alive, then my husband could be too.

That woman was in so much pain and she never got the help that she needed. It says here that her biggest regret is that she wasn’t there when her husband died. That she never had a chance to say goodbye. I wonder if Abe’s death somehow triggered that guilt.

Well, I don’t know whether she will take my call or not, but I do think I need to reach out to her, make sure she’s okay.

Lonnie was right about one thing. We can’t go on like this.

We were so ready to start our new beautiful life together, taking the kiddies and all. Starting a new life filled with happiness and love.

Oh, you’re right. You’re right. It’d be so difficult, especially when everyone’s out there looking for you and learning about the truth of what I did. Just not ready to give you up yet. No, I’m not. I can’t. I just can’t.

This is where Lonnie’s monitor pinged. That’s where Rave fell in the water. Where is she? There! Lonnie! Lonnie, where are you? Lonnie?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I am so sorry that I am late. Someone thought it was a great idea to have a water balloon fight in the middle of town square. Which, you know, then means extra cleanup for you know who. Not that I’m complaining or anything. After everything I helped Collin do to Chanel and her family, I am lucky to only walk away with community service.

Although I am committing fashion crimes on a daily basis. Ada, hello? Like, are you listening to me? Sorry, I’m, I’m just, I’m just a bit distracted. Really? Well, what’s on your mind? Rafe, I can’t stop thinking about how being with me has cost him everything. Paulina. Paulina. Paulina! Take a breath, okay? Take a deep breath.

Everything’s gonna be okay. We will find Lonnie. Listen to me. I can stall the prison. No, I do not want to involve Salem PD right now. Paulina, I’m gonna find Lonnie before anyone ever realizes she was even missing, okay? Okay. Okay, good. I’ll be in touch. Okay.

Hey. Hey. So, should I cancel the reservation? Yeah, unfortunately. It’s a madhouse here right now. It’s like everyone decided to get sick on the same night. I’m so sorry. No, but we can, we can go to the beach show another night this week, okay? Sure. Yeah, that’s fine. Really. Just go save lives, Dr. Johnson. I’ll find something to nuke in the microwave and I’ll see you when you get back.

Okay? See you then.

Dear Jing, when you are right, I need to find a way to move on from Gabby for real this time I hope Matchmaker I told you about, she found someone perfect for me or so she claims, and I have a date tonight. Wish me luck.

Hmm. You know, I have to say that you, District Attorney Trascar, are the last person I expected to be having dinner with tonight. I mean, of all the women in Salem, for me to be We’re not in a courtroom, Lee. And here, I’m not the DA. Oh, no? Then, who are you? Um, I’m Melinda. I’m a woman on a date with a very attractive man that I’d like to get to know a little better.

Despite our rather… scratchy… past. Okay then, Melinda, it is.

So, um, what looks good to you? Well, uh, small bar salmon is definitely my favorite. Oh, and mine. So I guess we have a lot more in common than our shared taste in good wine.

So, tell me, why exactly did you let Dimitri move in here? I didn’t. Stefan made that decision unilaterally, which infuriated me at first. But once I had time to think about it, I realized it’s best to keep him close by so we can keep an eye on him. And hopefully influence him to vote his shares in the company.

Well, good luck with that. Yeah, I think we’re gonna need it. So, um, how was Abe’s funeral? I mean, it was a lovely service. But after standing around with friends and family, it just finally started to feel real. Mm. You know, we lost such a good man. He was so kind. Abe was like a father figure to you. Yeah.

Speaking of which, I have some news for you, Daddy. Oh. About our future child. A. K. A. Our baby. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Yes,

Colin, of course I’m going to represent you at trial tomorrow. And no, I’m not too busy with my new boyfriend. No, he has no ideas. Could be the father of Nicole’s baby. Eric is completely in the dark.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

So I, I kept hoping I was hearing that wrong, but did the new mayor really fire you? Acting mayor. Yeah, he did. Yeah. You heard right. What is this guy’s deal? I mean, what is he, on some kind of crazy power trip? Please, please tell me you’re at least going to fight this, right? What can I do? I violated department policy.

Ah, so. You and Detective Hunter… Yeah. Yeah. Is it serious? It’s new. We both care about each other. Yeah, I’m happy to hear that. I mean, not that, you know, you losing your job thing, that sucks. Right, yeah. But, uh. Yeah, thanks. I’m glad that you found someone. Yeah. Yeah, me too. I know it was tough. You know, the, the divorce with Nicole.

Uh huh. Yeah. It was, actually. Yeah. But you know what? We were never meant to be. And, um, everyone else saw it. You know, as soon as our marriage became a disaster, everyone knew. Everyone knew she was going back to your Uncle Eric. Yeah. Yeah. Except now she’s with my dad, and we’re having a baby, and just… What?

Nicole’s pregnant? What about our baby? Well, I talked to Dr. Swanson today. And? And everything’s fine. I’m happy to report. But she also said that at our appointment tomorrow, we can… Find out if our little angel is a boy or a girl. I mean, that is, if you want to.

I have to go. I’ll see you at the courthouse tomorrow. Hey. Hey. I didn’t know you were going to be here. Well, you weren’t here, so I let myself in. Well, that’s the point of me giving you a key. Um, how was Mayor Carver’s funeral? Stupid question. I’m sure it was terribly sad. Yeah, it was. So who were you on the phone with before?

And what exactly am I in the dark about? Oh

my god, what are you doing home? I figured you were getting all glammed up. I didn’t want to miss it. I, I know, I know, but hey, I do really love this book you got going on. No. Stop. Okay, this is the look of a woman who got stood up by her uber busy doctor boyfriend. Oh, her uber busy doctor boyfriend who managed to convince someone to go with them tonight so we can still hit up the Hmm.

Well. I was also thinking that since I was uber busy at work overseeing the new install for the security patches for BasicBlock’s entire e commerce infrastructure. That sounds like fun. Yeah, it was a blast. I was kind of more in the mood to stay in. If that’s okay with you. It’s totally fine. Besides, we do have the whole place to ourselves.

Yeah? Where’s Lee? On a date. My favorite movie of all time? Let’s see. It’d have to be Casablanca. Yours? Casablanca is definitely one of my favorites, but I have to say that, um, The Godfather tops my list. The trilogy, completely, and also Citizen Kane. I actually just saw Nope, the Jordan Peele film. Have you seen it?

It’s just great. So you’re a bit of a movie buff, are you? It’s one of my passions.

How’s your salmon? Um, it’s perfect. Yours?

It’s also perfect.

You know, um, I haven’t really hit it off. Like this with someone in a long time.

I haven’t really been dating much since my divorce. Hardly ever, really. I didn’t know you were married. I was, to an abusive son of a bitch. I’m sorry to hear that. Yeah, well, I broke free before things got too ugly. I guess that’s why I have a soft spot for women like Talia Hunter. Hmm, Colin Bedford’s girlfriend.

Yeah, he had this sick hold on her and convinced her to do horrendous things to settle his personal scores. But she broke free of him, thank God. I just, I hope she makes the most of her second chance. I hope you’re not blaming yourself for Rafe losing his job. I mean, it seems like this acting mayor guy is totally tripping.

I know, but Rafe and I still broke the rules. I mean, even though our relationship was 100% consensual. I mean, he just happened to be my boss. I mean, it’s good to know he’s not the kind of guy that would use his position to get someone in the bed. Oh, no, never. Well, believe me, I wanted that man just as much as he wanted me.

I mean, Rafe is an amazing guy. He’s sweet, kind, funny. Wow, Jada, look, if you’re this crazy about this guy, I mean, it just might be worth him getting fired.

Wow, Nicole’s pregnant. I am so sorry, I, I, I thought you already knew that. No, I did not. I mean, I didn’t even think it was possible for her to have a baby. You know, I mean, to carry one to term. Well, it is considered a, uh, high risk pregnancy, but, you know, my dad flew in some expert to oversee it all, so…

Yeah, of course he did. Yeah. You know what? I’m happy for her. Yeah. I’m happy for both of them. I’m sure your dad’s thrilled. Yeah, he is. Especially now that he knows he’s the father. He’s thrilled. To what? Oh. Oh, crap. Uh, you know what? Just, just, just forget that I even said that. No, no, no, no, You gotta tell me now.

Okay, look. I’ll tell you, but you can’t go spreading this around. Okay, yeah, who am I gonna tell? Right, um, Okay, well, uh, The thing is, before they got the DNA test done, There was a chance that the baby was my Uncle Eric’s.

Oh, man.

Well, How am I in the dark? Well, I was just on the phone with my brother. He’s at the jail, and, you know, he starts his trial tomorrow. Oh, and what does that have to do with me? Well, it doesn’t, really. Not directly, anyway. He was just… He was asking about us and how things were going, and… And? And, uh, okay. I’ve been keeping something from you.

We can find out if we’re having a boy or a girl tomorrow. And if you want to. I see. So, do you want to? I don’t know, do you? I don’t know. Okay, great. It’s settled. Are you sure you’re not just saying, I don’t know, because you want me to answer first? No, is that what you’re doing? No, this is not going to go anywhere.

Um, okay, how about this? Why don’t we answer at the same time? Really? What’s wrong with that? I don’t know. It just seems kind of silly. Okay, yes, fine, let’s do it. Okay, ready? Yes. On the count of three. One, two… Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait. Is it one, two, and then our answer? Or is it one, two, three, and our answer?

The second one. So, one, two, three, answer. Yes. Okay. Okay. Ready? Yeah. Okay. One, two… Stop it. Oh, sorry. One, two, three… No.

You don’t want to know the sex of our baby. That’s why I said no. You’d rather be surprised? No, it’s not about being surprised. I’ve had enough surprises with this pregnancy. And what is it? I, I just, I guess I don’t want to, I don’t want to tempt fate. You know, finding out if this baby is a boy or a girl, that’s when it starts to feel real.

You know, I start to wonder, you know, what’s he gonna look like, or, or what’s her name gonna be?

And that’s a bad thing?

I just don’t want to risk it at this point. I mean,

what if I get emotionally attached to this baby and I lose it?

Sloane, no more dancing around. What are you keeping from me?

I’m late.

Uh, as in? Yeah, that kind of late.

Are you saying you might be pregnant?

You know what? I shouldn’t be surprised. Right? I mean, Nicole goes straight from our disaster of her marriage into a paternity mess with two of her ex husbands. It was pretty messy. Yeah. Yeah, par for the course, unfortunately. Yeah, well, you know, I’m not really one to talk, I guess. Yeah. You know what? Me neither.

And, uh, as much as it does hurt that it cost me my job, I must say that I am relieved to be in a drama free relationship with Jada. Yeah. Yeah, drama free relationship sounds really nice. You still seeing, um, Wendy shit? No. No. No, that’s… That’s over. Oh. Yeah. Oh, sorry to hear that. Well, it’s like you said, with you and Nicole, right?

It just wasn’t meant to be. She’s with Tripp now.

Yes, you go, girl. You really love this show, huh? Okay, my Zumo got me hooked. She’s been watching Body and Soul since it started. You gotta love those, uh, smutty family traditions, huh? Okay. No, I, I, okay, I get that you have a soap opera addiction, but can you please explain to me how you can eat this stuff? Oh, it doesn’t compare to filet mignon at the bistro, huh?

Well, it means fine dining when I have you.

And have I told you how happy I am that you chose me to be your boyfriend? I really like hearing it.

And have I told you how sorry I am that I put you through that dumb competition? It’s okay. It’s worth it. Not for Johnny.

Please tell me you don’t feel bad for him. I mean, he’ll probably be back with Chanel by the end of the week, or with some new girlfriend. Oh, I know. Yeah. Johnny will be fine in the romance department. Actually, it’s my brother I’m worried about. Really hope he’s enjoying himself on this date.

So, if you polled most people in Salem, what do you think they’d say about you? What do you think they’d say? That you’re ruthless and a little scary. But I’m seeing a different side of you. The compassionate side. I admire what you did for Talia Hunter. Thank you for saying that. And you know, I’m seeing a different side of you as well.

And I may have been a little harsh with you before. And yes, you did break the law. And I do not condone all you did to keep Gabby in your life. But? But, I’ve had my own run ins with her, and that woman gives as good as she gets. So you understand. No, I sympathize. She and Stefan used the both of us. And, um, in the end they left us in the dust.

They toyed with our emotions. It’s no wonder you wanted him dead. I’m sure I don’t know what you’re talking about. Don’t you? As I’ve stated repeatedly, I had nothing to do with the attempt on Stefan DiMera’s life. Oh, come on, Lee. Don’t kid a kidder. You’re not in the interrogation room with D. A. Trask.

You’re enjoying a nice dinner with a few drinks with your new friend, Melinda. I like you, Lee. And I think something is happening here.

I just need us to be honest with each other. And I promise it goes no further than this table.

What does? You were the one that brought Rolf back to Salem to brainwash Harris Michaels, weren’t you? You were behind the assassination attempt. You

don’t forgive him for sad guy poker? Do I even want to know what that is? No, you’ll figure it out. Alright, I’ll go first. Lost my job. Ah, I think I get it now. Your turn. I lost my girlfriend. Yeah, okay. I, um, oh, my ex wife is having a baby with a guy that I can’t stand. No offense. None taken. Okay, let me see, um, Ah, the girl I was nuts about.

Chose some nerdy doctor over me and my last ex left me for my sister Not even have a hot detective to fall back on so I Think I win, right? Did I just win? I think, yeah, I think you just like you left me right in the dust there, wow I do have a hot detective in my life. So Yeah, no complaints Wow. God. But you know what?

I’ll tell you something. We’re both catchers. Yeah. We are. Right? Yeah, we are. So, you Jada, she better lock this down. And I’m talking all the way down. Down, down. Oh, man. You know? And you know what? For you, I bet that there’s some lucky girl out there right now. She’s just swiping left. Swiping right. Swipe.

Swipe right. Right. Yeah. So she’s swiping right. I’ll take your word for that. Okay. Yeah. I’ve actually got to go meet Jada at the pub right now for a beer. You wanna come? Come on, man. I’ll buy you a beer. You sure you can afford it? Well, probably not actually. You know, you buy the beers. How about that, huh?

Okay, I’ll buy the beers. I’d love to grab a beer with you. I miss hanging out with you like this. Yeah, same. Alright, come on. Let’s do it. Yeah.

What is wrong with me? Here I am with you and worried about my brother’s date. That’s okay, I get it. Lee’s life has been off the rails for a little while and you’re worried about him. Yeah, more than I should be. I mean, he is a grown ass man, for one. And, I’ve been really ashamed of some of the things he’s done lately.

But… But he’s your family. And you love him. Yeah. I do. Okay, so he was fixed up with this date through a matchmaker, right? Mm hmm. Okay, so theoretically, he would have had her vetted and ran through an algorithm of some sort. She should be a pretty decent match for him, right? I hope so. Anyway, that is enough talk about my brother for one night.

He can take care of himself. Yes, he can. Which leaves me to take care of you, Dr. Johnson.

So what do you think? Should we take this to the bedroom?

I’m not judging. I’m really not. I just want us to be open with each other. You did it, didn’t you, Leigh? You sent Commander Harris Michaels after Stefan?

What are you doing? Wait, no, you can’t do that! Give that back! You’re recording me? What? No, I don’t know how that could have happened. It must have been left on from when I was at work. Or maybe when you went to the ladies room after we ordered. No, Lee, I And to think, I was actually having a nice time. What, what did you, pressure the matchmaker service to put us together?

No, Lee, you have this all wrong. And you, District Attorney Trask, are a terrible liar. Especially for someone who gets paid to lie their ass off. Enjoy your salmon. No, I

Mind your business.

Yes, it’s um, it’s a possibility that I’m pregnant. How long have you known? Why don’t we know now? I mean. Not for sure, it’s, I’m only a couple days late. Okay, I see. You know what, look, let’s wait a couple more days and then we just see what happens. We could do that, or we could… Or what? What? I could run down to the pharmacy and get a pregnancy test.

You know what, I’ll be right back, okay? Yeah, I’ll be right back.

Darling, the doctor I brought in has the utmost confidence you’ll be able to carry the baby to term. I know. I know what she said. It’s just, I’ve had so many issues. Okay, okay. So there’s, there’s no guarantees. Isn’t that all the more reason to cherish every moment along the way? I mean, learning the baby’s gender.

It can be a time for celebration. Oh, celebration? Only if it’s a boy, you mean. What? Yeah, what? I know how chauvinistic you Damaris are. Oh, you want a male descendant? Admit it! No! I will not! I will not admit it! First of all, I absolutely adore my daughter, Sydney, as you well know, and I already have a son, obviously.

And also, it’s the 21st century. I’m just as evolved as you are. I am a passionate proponent of gender equality. Yes, really. And forget about equality. Girls are now proving themselves to be superior. Outperforming boys in school, as we’ve all read. Not to mention that members of the female persuasion are just generally…

better people, in my view. They’re kinder, more caring. Wiser. Damn right.

So I would be absolutely thrilled, if our baby turned out to be a girl. So,

when

two cops are in the bed together, like, Do you guys wear uniforms? Okay, just stop. First of all, Rafe and I don’t even wear uniforms on the job. And second of all, my sex life is none of your business, Talia. Carl, look, my personal life is a train wreck right now. So excuse me if I vicariously live through you and your love life.

And just so you know, I’m not gonna stop until you spill. So. Okay. Fine. I’ll tell you. See? And you crack. Making love to Rafe Hernandez is mmm. The bomb. Okay, are you happy now? Way to go, buddy. Rafe,

hey. Hey. Can I talk to you for a sec? Uh, sure. I

am super mortified right now. Oh, no. Shh. Don’t be. You know, I only said that because Talia was being super nosy and annoying. And I just said that to shut her up. Oh. Okay. So you didn’t mean what you said. No, no, I did. I just… Okay, oh my god. I am usually a very private person. And, you know, like I said, Talia just wanted to live vicariously through me because she said that she’s with me right now.

It’s okay. I mean, who doesn’t love positive feedback? Yeah, yeah. So, how do you know Rafe? Uh, he is my ex stepdad. Yeah, he and my mom were married for a time. Oh. Small world. Yeah, totally. Especially in this town, I mean, uh, your sister’s dating my ex stepdad and you pretended to be interested in my ex wife.

I mean, getting a review like that, whether you were pressured into it or not… I mean, it almost makes losing my job worth it. Okay, you sound like my sister now. Well, it’s true. Well, it’s really sweet of you to say, but I’m really sorry what Rawlings did to you. Because you’re with me, your career could be over.

No, no, no, hey, I have no regrets. None, alright? I hope you don’t either. I don’t. Not one. Okay, good. Was there anything else you wanted to talk to me about? Yes, actually. I need your help.

Lee! You’re home! Sorry, uh, I should have texted. I can go. No, no, it’s fine. It’s totally fine. You live here too. Yeah, how was, uh, how was your date? Uh, so Jingwen told you about my being fixed up by a matchmaker? What was I not supposed to? No, it’s okay. What’s one more person known about my romantic failures?

Damn, I guess it didn’t go well, huh? It was a complete disaster, my boy. Another glass of wine, ma’am? I think I’ll be moving on to something a little stronger. Whiskey, need? Of course. And will your companion be wanting another beverage? I’m afraid he won’t be coming back tonight. Or ever.

Well I am glad to hear you say that. But what is most important is that we have a healthy baby. Yes, yes, that is most important by far. And also, what is very, very important, is that our baby is going to be so lucky to have you as their mother. Mm. Wanted to have you as their daddy. Oh. Daddy.

Got it right before they closed. Eric, this is crazy. Why? Well, because I’m probably not pregnant. Yeah, but you said you were late. Yeah, but I’m late by a couple days. I mean, this isn’t unusual for me. There’s only one way to find out.

Okay. Here goes nothing.

Okay, so I see that you want to do this, so let’s just do this and get this over with. I’m sure you hate my guts after everything I did to Chanel. I don’t know you well enough to hate you. But what I do know is that you hurt someone that I care about very much. And I’m not okay with that. And I don’t expect you to be.

Look, for what it’s worth… I feel awful about helping Colin get to Chanel and her family. And I’ll do whatever it takes to make it up to them. You mean that? You probably don’t believe this, but you’re not the only one that cares about Chanel. The last thing I want to do is to ever hurt her again. Well, that’s good.

Because if you

do, then you’ll have me to deal with.

So you have no idea where Lonnie is? No. She’s just gone off the radar. Damn, and if she doesn’t show up soon, it could look like she’s gone on the lam. Yeah, exactly. That’s why I have to find her in time. You can’t get the 712D involved. No. No, no, no, no, no. This is on me. I told Eli when he got called away that I would look after Lonnie.

I’ve already let Abe and his family down once. That’s not true, Rafe. Listen, I cannot be the reason that Lonnie gets more time tacked on to her sense. Listen, I know that this is a big ask. And I’ll bet that acting Mayor Rawlings is already gunning for you because of me. I need a good detective to help me find Lyne

before it’s

Lost love, Chardonnay? That’s what you ordered? Do you know it? Well, yeah, I know it. Pour me a glass and I’ll tell you the story.

Damn it, Melinda. You really screwed this one up, didn’t you?

I’m sorry to hear it didn’t go well. You want to talk about it?

Not really. Maybe tomorrow.

Wow. Sounds like it went ethically wrong. Yeah.

I feel so bad for him.

But we shouldn’t let that ruin our night. Right. Except, Wendy, I want our first time together today. Be special. No talk of ex boyfriends, no broken hearted brothers, no distractions. You’re right. Our first time. It should only be about us. Yeah.

Yes. Have I told you lately how grateful I am to be having a child with you? Well, I always love hearing it. Being this baby’s father, it means the world to me, Nicole. And I know you’re protecting yourself right now, and for good reason. But I hope soon you’ll be able to allow yourself to feel like this baby is a reality.

We are going to be parents together. This is happening.

Is it possible that, like, time could completely stop? Shh. Talking just makes it work slower. So not true. Yes, it is. Eric, look. Look, look, right there. It’s, it’s two lines. Right? Does that mean what I think it means? Yes. Yeah, that does. Oh, my God, Eric. We’re having a baby. We’re having a baby. We’re having a baby.

We’re having a baby!

No! We’re having a

baby. Hey, sweetness. Greetings from La La Land. You’re in Los Angeles? Well, did you find Jerry Prentiss? No, not yet. After John and I missed him at the, uh, bus terminal in Salem. We hopped on a plane, took a gamble that he might be headed here to resume his acting career. Well, that sounds like a good bet.

Yeah, we’ll see. Bus from Chicago should arrive any minute. Well, hopefully he’ll be on it and you’ll be able to ask him what he’s hiding about Abe. That’s the plan. Okay, keep me posted. Oh, and Steve.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Damn it, that was close. Not to mention nerve wracking. And that’s because I got so flustered and blabby. Justin, how many times can I run into Xander before I end up telling him the truth? And boy, did I try to avoid him this time. When I saw him coming across that square, I turned around so fast… That you nearly knocked over that woman with the stroller.

Yes! It was like fate conspired for me to practically run over that baby so I would be forced to tell Xander that Sarah was pregnant with his baby. But you managed not to. Just barely. He’s gotta know something’s up, man. The way I just rattled on about having hot wings for dinner. In the really hot weather.

I know. I was there. Well, at least I said something. You just stood there, quiet as a graveyard. Because I have learned that the best way to keep a secret… is to keep your mouth closed. What secret?

Well, thanks for the update, Bell. Okay, talk soon. Oh, hey, couldn’t hear you come in. Hey there. Hmm.

Hmm. Oh, what a lovely greeting. Hmm, and you’re nice and warm. What did you run home or something? I just walked through the park, actually. Ran into our old friend, Bonnie Lockhart. Oh, was she acting weird again? Very. Banging on about whatever came into her head. Hot wings in hot weather, stuff like that.

She’s so strange. She and Justin seem really uncomfortable around you lately. I don’t get it. It makes two of us. What’s in the package? Ah. This is your anniversary present. What anniversary? Open your present and you’ll find out.

So, I know it’s not our anniversary until next week. What? Got you an early gift. I don’t, I don’t see a gift anywhere. Oh, it’s not a thing. It’s, it’s, it’s something I did. What kind of gift is that? Well, EJ and I, we finally took your advice. We broke her to truce. Oh, that is a great gift. And there’s more. We were gonna kick Demetri out of the house, but Kristen stopped us.

What’s good about that? Because for once, she was right. Best to keep Dimitri here, where we can keep our eyes on him. Guess you’re right. Friends close, enemies closer. Speaking about that, um, I just came from getting up close and personal to one of our enemies.

Yeah, I just sat down. How well do you know what she looks like? Okay. I’ll be on the lookout for a woman with long dark hair wearing a blue dress. Thanks again.

You gotta be kidding me. What the hell are you doing here? Don’t you have a bail hearing or something? You, you don’t understand. Could you please just go to another bar? I’m meeting someone and I don’t want him to find me here with a guy who’s on Salem’s most wanted list. This someone is a, uh, date, right?

How do you know that? Because I have the misfortune of being that poor bastard.

The kid’s finally settled? Yeah, Charlotte is. Thomas made me let him, uh, let him read for a half hour. He’s, um… I’m so pumped about his room. You did such a good job on it. Well, I want him and Charlotte to be happy here. They are. So am I. Thank you for the beautiful flowers. Yeah. Well, we’ve been so busy with the move, we haven’t had a whole lot of time for romance.

I had the same thought. Another delivery? The good kind. Dinner for two from Foo’s walk in. Yeah. You want to pour some wine while I get the door? Yes.

Howdy neighbors, so is this what it’s going to be like living across the hall from you? Ever heard of a shirt?

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Now is that any way to talk to your new neighbor? Come on in. Hey, do you guys have hot water? Yep. Not me. I’ve been running that thing for like 15 minutes. Well, then go back to your own apartment and call the super. I did. You can’t get a plumber here until tomorrow morning. Thanks for the update. We were just about to have dinner.

Oh, okay. I’ll, uh, get out of your way then. Right on my mind. Hey, do you think maybe, if it’s, uh, cool with you kids, if I grab a quick shower? Hmm.

Did you get me a pizza? It’s not a pizza, Chloe. Oh, darn. I was hoping it was. I’m starving. I’ll get you a pizza. Just open this box. Okay.

There we go. This is a

dartboard. And, and, a new set of darts. Wow. Well, we already have a dartboard o. It’s not there anymore. What happened? Yeah, that one was for amateurs. It was starting off my game. Yeah, blame it on the dartboard. This is a huge upgrade. That one was just bringing me bad luck. This is pub quality. Sounds to me like someone is eager for a rematch.

I’m chomping at the bit. And since you’re wondering what anniversary this celebrates, you believe it’s been exactly three months since you buried a dart worryingly close. To my heart. I’m really sorry about that. I’m not. It was like Cupid’s arrow. I fancied you from that moment on.

Um. Oh, well. Hiya, Justin Teller. I was just speaking. Hypothetically. Yeah, we were just talking about how hot the weather’s been lately. And what we had for dinner. Stuff like that. Oh, and that led you to give Bonnie advice on the art of keeping a secret? Oh, you know, Justin, he’s, uh, he’s always helping me with my big mouth.

And I do so appreciate it, honey, because you know this thing’s got me in some pretty big jams. Mm hmm. I think the two of you are keeping something from me. And I have a good idea what it is.

It’s a family matter, isn’t it? Oh, my God, who told you? He told me himself. You talked to Rex? What does Rex have to do with this? Nothing. No, not a thing. Um, it’s just that he’s in Chicago with Sarah. Uh, they’re in Chicago. Well, of course you know that because, uh, your daughter lives in Chicago and how could you not know where your daughter lives?

Or what’s going on in her life? So I guess the thing that you’re keeping from me has something to do with Sarah.

What? No! Why would we know a secret about Sarah? That’s what I’m trying to find out. Well, it’s not about Sarah, okay? Right, Justin? Justin, you have said one sentence to me since I walked in. I get the feeling you are giving me the silent treatment. Why would I do that? I don’t know. Look, before, uh, when I said I’d talk to someone, I meant Alex.

Oh, so now I’m thinking that… The secret that you don’t want me to know is about Alex and you’re trying to cover for Justin. Am I right? Huh? What? What? What do you mean? What? Huh? Justin, you have to be furious at me, aren’t you? I mean, you know that I’m the reason that your son moved out of the family home.

Look, Alex. Alex, we don’t want you to take a shower here. We want you to go back to your own place and take a cold shower. It’ll probably do you some good. Yeah, that’s the thing, man. The cold shower just won’t cut it. I just came back from a workout, and I smell like a goat. I don’t care. Go home. Listen, Brady and I have a meeting tomorrow morning with a very important client at 8 a.

m. God only knows when this plumber’s gonna show up, and I really can’t afford to screw up another job.

I want you out of here in five minutes. I will be quick, I promise you. And don’t turn the bathroom into a pigsty. Oh, you guys are the best. Hey, thank you so much, babe. Nice shirt.

Okay, I’m sorry. I just, I didn’t want him to screw up his meeting. Right, so he gets to ruin our meeting instead?

I know exactly where to put this. Okay, you know what? I think I should hang that because, as I recall, you’re pretty lousy at hanging things. That’s only because I didn’t have the drywall, but I’ve got them now, so I’m going to be brilliant at it. You’ll see. Okay. Yeah, so you order the pizza and I’ll take care of this.

Okay, fine. The usual? Meat with more meat and extra meat on thin crust? That’s my girl. And while we’re waiting for it to arrive, it’s game on. Although this time, when it’s your turn. I’ll remember to duck.

Gabby, I cannot believe you went to talk to Lee on your own. We have talked about this. I know but he was that we were letting him get away with it. We weren’t doing anything about it. Because we have proof of how dangerous he is, Gabby. Lee and Megan want me dead, you know that. That’s exactly why I did what I did.

And what was that? I just, I sort of gave him a taste of his own medicine. I hate to even ask what that means. We talked. Okay, we were talking, and then I could tell I wasn’t getting to him, so… I did something to make my point. What something? Stephen, I pulled a gun on him.

This cannot be happening. We, we did not hire the same matchmaker. A lady named Cheryl Angel? Promised you a match made in heaven, right? Yeah, instead I got the blind date from hell. Okay, just so you know, the feelings of repulsion are mutual. If I I was meeting you, I would have had the florist put extra thorns on that rose.

I am the district attorney. I cannot be seen having drinks with the man who is going to prison. You’re leaving? Yeah. Cheryl Angel knew exactly what she was doing. Either she’s going to give me my money back, or I’m going to bring her up on charges. She doesn’t know about me. What, you think she reads the police blotter?

Give her a break. She’s just trying to make a living. Then she’s an incompetent. How could anyone think that we would be a match? We have absolutely nothing in common. I wouldn’t go that far. Name one thing. In the train wreck known as the affair between my ex wife and Stefan DiMera, you and I are both collateral damage.

I hate to say this, but you have a point. Then, why don’t you sit down. Back when I was hopeful about tonight, I ordered a very nice bottle of wine. We can drink to the happy couple. Wish them all the misery they so richly deserve.

Fine. But for the record, we are not in the same boat, okay? True, I had a thing for Stefan at some point, but you, on the other hand, have a psychopathic obsession with Gabby Hernandez. I loved her. I still do. But I’m not a nutjob. Mm hmm, because only a sane man would brainwash Harris Michaels into killing his ex wife’s lover.

Okay, this is a charge you cannot prove. Give me time. Back to the main topic of you and Stefan. Uh, we were never on that topic. You wanted him. Way more than you let on. Oh, really? And you know this how? Why else would you get in bed with him and moan and groan so I’d think he was screwing you instead of my wife?

You can’t deny what you did. I walked in on you. Oh, for God’s sake. That was all staged. For your benefit. Well, whoever’s benefit it was for, it was an idiotic idea. You were an intelligent, beautiful woman. And you let Stefan DiMera use you. Be honest, that has to hurt.

I cannot believe you did such a stupid thing. What if Lee had gotten the gun away from you? What if he had used it on you? He doesn’t have the cojones to do something like that. Just tell me the gun wasn’t loaded. Stefan, what good’s a gun with no bullets in it? I can’t believe this. You… I wasn’t going to shoot him.

I just wanted to scare him. I wanted him to know that if he ever came after you again, I will get him, and I will. I am not going to lose you again. I can’t. What if I don’t want to lose you, Gabby? You thought about that? What if you’re wrong about Lee? What if he had gotten the gun away from you? My brother is a cop.

I know how to handle a gun. You are so far off the deep end right now. You are so hell bent on stopping Lee and Megan from killing me that you keep putting yourself in danger. It has to stop.

It’s been a lot longer than five minutes. I know. I’m really sorry. You don’t have to keep saying it. I should have put this in the oven. It’s getting cold. No, what we should do is just go ahead and eat. But when he comes out, I’m kicking him out. I need you to back me up this time. I will. I promise. We’re still gonna have our evening.

Right.

Spring rolls? Yes. Hmm. We’re having a romantic evening. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Hey there, lovebirds. Thanks for the shower.

That’s my robe. I know, you got a little something on ya, pal. Uh, but you told me not to come out in a towel anymore, so… I didn’t tell you to take my robe. I couldn’t fit it all in a Stephanie’s, that’d be much worse than a towel. But, if you insist, I mean… No! You drop that robe, you’re dead.

Well, if I do say so myself… It’s very well hung. Said the chorus girl to the Archbishop. Yeah. There’s a reason I like you. You’ve got a filthy mind and a terrible aim . You know, let’s hope that that board stays up there, because I would hate for it to fall the moment I hit my first bullseye. If a massive earthquake, what a hit, Salan, and that wall started to crumble, our dartboard would stop it from falling.

You think? I know. That’s a bearing wall. It might save the whole building, thanks to my expert installation. I think you really believe that. Why? You love my big ego? I certainly like taking advantage of it, that’s for sure. Oh, so you’re feeling pretty sure of yourself, huh? You want to make this interesting?

Yeah, I do. If I beat you, you have to give me a shoulder massage. Hmm. Well, if I win, you have to give me… A foot massage. No, no, no, no, buddy. That’s a lot to ask. We are three months in. I do not touch feet. Oh, so not so confident after all, huh? Oh, no, I am, and the thought of touching your feet is motivation enough, so.

Step aside, please.

I am not giving you the silent treatment. You have to be disappointed that Alex moved out. I am. I liked having him here, especially after Sonny moved out. But, I’m not angry with you. You and Alex are now working for competing companies, so it only makes sense that you live in different places. He’s working for DiMera because I fired him.

And then you generously hired him back, and then he turned your offer down. Alex is a grown man. He makes his own decisions. In fact, I just learned that he found a new apartment and a building with all sorts of amenities. Oh, good. Good, good, good. I’m glad. Listen, I don’t resent Alex’s decision to stay on at DiMera.

I mean, as you know, I hired Chad in his place, and I’m very happy. A good choice. Fantastic. So, can we consider the air cleared? Yes, we can. Whew! But, um, I’m still wondering, uh, why you brought up Rex’s name and Sarah’s. Oh, um, well, I meant to say Alex when I said Rex’s name. I just got confused because, you know, both of their names have X’s in them.

And then I brought up Sarah because you thought I brought up Rex. They live in Chicago. Yeah, but you weren’t talking about Alex. When I walked in, you were talking about keeping a secret. For Pete’s sake, I can’t take this anymore. Bonnie. No, no, I gotta do something. I can’t. I can’t just keep this between you and me, alright?

And who better to tell than Maggie? Well, then what is it? Tell me what it is. You wanna know if this is about Sarah, right? Yes. Well, it is. Sarah, your daughter, is keeping a big secret from you. And I’m the poor schmazo who happened to find out what it is.

Bonnie, do you really want to do this? What isn’t Sarah telling me? Maggie’s not just Sarah’s mom, she’s a really good mom. And if Sarah were my daughter, I’d want to know about this. About what? Sarah is, Sarah’s, Sarah’s,

Sarah’s seeing Rex again. She is? Yes. How do you know? When I went to visit my little grandbaby, it was Rex’s week with her, and then Sarah was in the apartment, Rex’s apartment, when I walked in. But that’s, I mean, they’re together. Together. Bonnie, a woman knows these things, alright? Sarah’s expec was not expecting to see me and her with Rex.

And that’s when Sarah made Bonnie promise to not tell anybody, including you. So Sarah’s with Rex and she doesn’t want me to know. I wonder why. Probably because she knows you have a soft spot for Xander. Xander and Sarah are divorced. What does he have to do with this?

Oh, you might as well throw in the towel, love. You’ve only got one dart left. I can still win if I hit Cork. Well, you’re throwing that dart. It’s more likely to end up landing in County Cork. Ha. Stand back. Don’t have to tell me twice. Oh, God, I’m really gonna enjoy watching you rub my feet. Quiet. I am concentrating.

I get it. Look, I, I get why you’re upset, Stefan, but I had to face Lee. Don’t, don’t you see? I had to look at him in the eye and make sure he understood that there’s no chance I will ever get back together with him. Lee has never… You’re going to believe that, Gabby. No matter what you say or do, the guy’s obsessed.

Not anymore. No, no, really. The only person he listens to is his sister, and Wendy convinced him to move on. He even hired a matchmaker. Huh. You’re kidding. No, no, really. I saw the profile that he wrote for himself on his laptop. Look, I didn’t really believe it, but he swore that he has a date tonight, so maybe he will meet the woman of his dreams and finally we can get on with our lives.

I don’t need to explain myself to you, Mr. Shin. And I’ve wasted enough of my night, so don’t be offended if I end our date permanently. You’d be doing me a favor. Why would I want a woman who wasn’t good enough for Stefan DiMera? I would not insult me if I were you. I can still up the charges against you to conspiracy to commit murder.

And for being an ass in the first degree.

Lost Love Chardonnay? That’s what you ordered? Do you know it? Well, yeah, I know it. Pour me a glass and I’ll tell you the story.

You happy now? Do you see me smiling? Wow, I really don’t get what the big deal is. Yes, I took your robe. You took my job at Titan. Alex, that’s not fair. Hey, I’ll give the robe back tomorrow, I promise you. I will even wash it. As long as you’re okay with the cold water because that’s all I got. I’ll make you a deal.

Keep the robe. Looks great on you. Oh, thank you, Chad. That’s right neighborly of you. Silly part of the deal. You move out of the building.

Why would I move out of this great building? I’ve got the gym, I’ve got the pool. Don’t even get me started on the location. Yeah, and that’s your favorite part, isn’t it? You took the apartment because you could be right across the hall from Stephanie and me. Actually, I was talking about my five minute drive to my office.

Dude, I know you’re still hung up on Stephanie. Dude, I’m in the room. Stephanie, please, tell this guy that we are just friends now. It’s true.

Buddy, I moved out because I couldn’t live with Maggie anymore. And yes, coincidentally, I landed a place across the hall. And I know that we don’t like each other that much, but maybe… We can learn to be good neighbors. Good Neighbors? Good Neighbors, you’re showing up half naked when my daughter’s in the other room.

Whoa, uh, I’m sorry, I didn’t even think of that. You don’t think? Chad, a word? You and I have everything we want. We can afford to be a little bit understanding. Oh, come on. No, you come on. Please, why don’t you let this go so we can get back to our night together?

You alright?

Alex, welcome to the building. Thanks, man. Who’s walking in? Oh my god, that is my favorite place. Are you kidding me? The spring rolls. Have you tried these yet? Oh

my god. Do you think maybe you guys could let me stay for dinner? Neighbors.

I can’t believe it. Ha ha ha, believe it. I’m ready for that shoulder massage. Uh huh. Ooh.

Ooh. Oh yeah, that feels good. Maybe I don’t mind losing so much after all. Oh my god, did I ever tell you

that you that you have the greatest hands?

Um,

Um, Um, Um, Um, Wanna play beat the beat,

son? Xander is with Chloe now. He and Sarah split up months ago. From what I can see, about six months. Sorry? What Bonnie is trying to say is that it hasn’t been that long since Sarah and Xander split up. And since we know that you were very supportive of their relationship, it must be very difficult to see them with other people.

True. True. And Sarah has history with Rex. And he’s made it very plain that he wants her back. He’s just not my choice for my daughter. He cheated on her and hurt her very badly. Maybe that’s why she feels she can’t tell me. Because she’s forgiven him, but I don’t know if I can. Oh, honey, it hurts when they keep me on the outside.

I mean, Mimi didn’t tell me that she was pregnant with Rex’s baby until she was like five or six. But kids grow up. They make their own decisions. Yeah, yeah. Well, I’ll call Sarah after dinner. Maybe she’ll open up to me.

Thank you, Bonnie, for telling me. I, I wish Sarah had.

That worked out okay. I need a drink.

The summer after law school. I had a few weeks off before I started my job. In the spur of the moment, I decided to take a bike trip through Napa. Stop at a lot of vineyards. Mind you, I didn’t know a thing about wine. But you know, when I’m ignorant about something, I, it drives me crazy, so I just dive in and I try to become an expert.

Also served you well in law school. Graduated first in my class. Editor of the Law Review. But I’d never done a trip like that before. And I just felt… so free. Anyway, um… The last winery I stopped at was Lost Love Vineyards. And they had just released this vintage. I took one sip and I thought it was the most, oh, exquisite wine I had ever tried.

And I was keeping a journal. I’d peel the labels off each bottle I tried and I pasted it in my journal next to my notes. But that day I, I was so lost in the wine and that free feeling. I forgot to take the label. I tried to remember the name later, and it just wouldn’t come to me. So I, I put the trip and the wine out of my mind and I became a workaholic again.

Until tonight. I saw that bottle and it all came back to me.

You felt that free feeling again? Yeah. I did.

Wow. You know, I feel sorry for the poor woman who gets paired up with Lee. That guy should come with a warning label tattooed across his forehead. I could care less about that chick. I just hope Lee falls head over heels in love with her and just, we can stop worrying about him. Yeah, maybe. I don’t want to talk about him anymore.

Our anniversary is next week, and we’re finally getting married. It’s going to be one of the happiest days of my life.

Except I have to tell you something.

What? I don’t know if that’s going to work for me.

What’s not going to work for you? Are you saying you don’t want to marry me? I’m saying, what if I decide to get reckless like you did, and I go meet Megan in a back alley somewhere with a gun? Or what if I show up to Rolf’s secret lab with a crossbow and I attack him for brainwashing me? Or better yet, what if I show up to one of these blind dates with a matchbook and a gallon of gasoline?

Okay, you’ve made your point. Have I? Yes, I get it. And as one of my pre wedding vows to you, I promise I won’t ever, ever go after any of our enemies again. I don’t believe you. What? Gabby, you’re always going to want to bring the fight to anyone who hurts us. All that I’m asking is that next time, take me with you.

Okay? You seem to think you’re invincible. But you’re not. And I don’t want to lose you any more than you want to lose me. I know. I promise.

Thank you. Now I just have to find the journal. You don’t have it? You lost it.

Well then you’ll just have to start another one.

Just try smiling more often.

At least I learned that we actually do have something in common. We both love this wine.

Why don’t you stay for dinner? Finish the bottle with me. Oh, what the hell.

You guys got any more of this wine? Uh, no more wine. And it’s time for you to go. Take some mooshu pork. Oh, thank you. That’s breakfast tomorrow. Great. Good luck with your meeting tomorrow. Ah. Okay. Well, um, thank you guys for everything. Why?

Uh, sorry about your robe. Eh, who needs robe when I get to live with you.

What are you thinking about? I’m thinking that if someone would have told me three months ago that I would be on this couch making love with you, I would have said that they’re nuts. Life is certainly full of surprises, isn’t it? Yeah, it is. Except when it comes to darts and Chloe versus Xander, because clearly I always win.

Wait, so I don’t even get a chance to save my dignity? Okay. Set him up again.

Wow. That was not my fault. Right. No, I’m serious. When we were making love before, I definitely felt the earth move. Oh yeah? An earthquake? Yeah, must have been. Now we can’t play darts. How are we going to fill the time until the pizza gets here? I’m sure you can think of some ways.

Okay, so when your mom calls, you’ll have an explanation? Okay, honey. Thanks. You’re a doll. Bye.

So, Sarah’s not upset? Well, she’s gonna back me up about her and Rex. But she still doesn’t want Xander or anyone else to know she’s pregnant with his baby. She’s still determined to keep the secret? Oh, for sure. I still say secrets have a way of coming out. Especially when that secret’s a baby.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

One for you, and one pour moi.

Poison free, I trust? Oh, I believe you, and I’ve moved past all that. Have we? Because I’m still a little confused as to why you invited me out for drinks. Well, I thought we should discuss the fact that our sister Megan has vanished after trying to have you killed. You disappointed she didn’t succeed? No, in fact, I was the one who tried to stop her.

Believe me, I hate that it’s come to this. But I don’t have any other options. Yes, of course, I’ll send the money right away. You just better come through for

me. Gabby. On coincidence, I was just thinking about you. Asking

for his shared custody of my daughter. Julie, that’s not an unreasonable request. Are you serious? You kidnapped Rachel. So maybe if you, I don’t know, give her back, my brother would be willing to negotiate. You know what, Belle? Breaking news. Brady took Rachel just before you arrived. And he was not willing to negotiate.

So you did take Rachel. No, I did not say that. Then what are you saying? That she just showed up? Yes! Yes, that is exactly what I’m saying, and thank God she did because Brady was about to shoot me.

Baby, you, you called the police? Um, when? We got the report about 20 minutes ago. It was when you started to get gas! Baby, why would you do that? Well, why? Because you

tried to kill my Well, between Rachel Black’s disappearance, the police commissioner being sacked, and Mayor Carver’s funeral, I would say that we have a pretty solid issue here, so well done everybody. I’ll see you all bright and early in the office tomorrow morning. Okay.

Surprised I haven’t heard from my darling fiancé today. Wonder what he’s up

to. Extends through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Hello, love. Um, Look, ring me when

you get a chance. I’ve just finished work and I was, well, I was hoping that perhaps we could meet up tonight. I mean, if we are to be married by the end of the month, I think we should probably get a start on, um, getting things sorted. Yes?

You know, my darling. The more this sinks in, the more excited I get. I cannot wait to be your wife.

Well,

that was quite the workout. Yeah. Who needs a gym membership, right? I think I might just cancel mine. What was that last move you did? Oh, I call that the Ariana Grande. A little bit of sass really gets the crowd going. Aren’t you my little pop culture aficionado? And I find it works especially well on emotionally unavailable men.

Well, I’d have to agree with you on that. So, need time for another round? I could show you my Dua Lipa. An intriguing offer, but I think I’m gonna need time out.

Missed call from Gwen.

I hate deceiving her like this. And normally I don’t mind being sneaky and duplicitous. Because, truthfully, most people deserve it. But Gwenny, she’s my ride or die. My confidant, my most loyal friend in the entire world. It’s all very touching, Leo. But what about what you deserve? What makes you happy? You know, what you want.

You’re enjoying this, aren’t you? Oh, God, yes. That’s the problem. I am betraying my best friend over a magic disease. Why do you keep calling it that? Oh, it’s just an inside joke between Gwen and me. Which has now lost its inside joke status and become a dirty little secret. Since she has no idea that we are hooking up behind her back.

Leo, we need to find a way to get you over this guilt. Oh. How am I supposed to do that? How would I not be a heartless bastard if I didn’t hate myself for this? So now I’m a heartless bastard? Because I’m not torturing myself over the guilt? Because I’m not beating myself up over this? No! Well, I mean, sort of.

Look, look, isn’t there some other woman you can bamboozle? Someone who isn’t so kind and sweet and knows exactly which episode of Frasier to put on when I’m in low spirits. You know I’d love to, but it’s too late. The wheels are in motion. If I want to see any part of this inheritance, I need to be married by the time I turn 40, which we both know is at the end of the month.

There’s just not enough time to find someone else. You say that, but, but, but, but, but, but, I used to work at a bowling alley with a woman named Amy. Spelled A I M E and I think another E. I sincerely like Gwen. I care about her. I really do. And I’m not so heartless that I don’t feel bad about deceiving her.

Just right now. I’m stuck.

At least, now I’m stuck with you.

You tried to stop Megan from killing me. Why do you think she locked me up in the tunnels? Figured you were her next victim. No, no, you see, I overheard her on the phone plotting her brother’s demise. At first I thought she was referring to me, but in a moment of desperation she confessed that it was you.

Who is the intended target? In here, I thought she liked me. She tried to rope me in on her plan, her usual Machiavellian craziness, but when I refused, she knocked me out. Wow. Guess I’m a little baffled. Baffled why? Because had you gone along with Megan’s Machiavellian craziness, you’d be free of me. Who you obviously loathe and detest, and you’d be running DiMera all on your own.

All you had to do was keep your mouth shut. Why didn’t you?

You were thinking about me. How was that? Well, I heard about your terrible ordeal. How Rolf attacked you and handcuffed you to Megan’s hospital bed. Can’t imagine how frightening that must have been. Scary as hell, all right. And I swear to you on everything that’s holy, if I ever get my hands on that slime bucket, I will rip that stupid ponytail off of his head and strangle him with it.

And he would certainly deserve that. But what were you doing visiting Megan alone? Well, you insisted that Megan hired Harris to kill Stefan, so I wanted to confront the Puppet Master face to face. I see. You shouldn’t have gone there alone. That’s what Stefan said. But, you know, I promised him that from now on, we will be doing everything together as a team.

No more going rogue. However, today, I’m making an exception.

About to shoot you? Give me a break, Kristen. Brady would never shoot anyone. Oh, but you are so wrong. He actually announced it. He pointed a gun at me, and he proudly proclaimed that he was going to murder me. You’re lying. Brady doesn’t even own a gun. It was a loaner from John. Well, I still think you’re lying.

Because if Brady would have threatened you with a gun, you’d be at the police station right now. What’s that old mob saying? Singing like a canary? But instead, you’re sitting here bragging. Begging for my help. Oh my god, please, please. Do you think the police are going to believe me? No, I mean it’s his word against mine.

And whether you believe me or not, I am telling the God’s honest truth. Brady tried to murder me in cold blood. He has gone completely over the edge. Well, if that’s true. That’s because you pushed him. Oh my God. Even if that were true, does that justify that he tried to kill the mother of his child? Oh my God, Kristen.

You have lied to all of us so much, and made So many people miserable, not to mention that you have been about to kill numerous people, numerous times, and damn near succeeded. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise to you that I feel zero sympathy for you. And I have zero faith that everything you’re telling me right now isn’t some sinister attempt to screw someone over.

In this case, my Brother who I love and trust and wish I’d never gotten involved with the likes of you. So sorry, Kristen. No, I will not help you. You’re on your own.

Detective Hunter, look, this is a complete misunderstanding.

But I saw you! were I must ask you again. Is what Rachel is saying true? Did you pull a gun on Kristen DeMera and threaten her life with it? This is what’s true. Yes, I went over to Kristen’s house. And we did have a, we had an argument. Alright, I mean, she kidnapped my daughter. No, she didn’t! Yep, Rachel, honey, please don’t lie about this.

I’m not lying!

Look, I may have, I may have said something in the heat of the moment. Like, I ought to kill you, but I didn’t mean it. And I had no gun. I don’t own a gun. He put it in

that drawer when we got home.

It’s locked. Do you have a key?

Code, please? Yeah.

Mr. Black, can you find a sitter for your daughter? I think it’s best if we finish our conversation down at the station. No, come on. You’re not serious about this, are you? I am dead serious. When you pull a gun on someone, there are questions that need to be answered.

Gabby, what are you doing? Where’d you get the gun? Oh, I could get my hands on a gun whenever I need one. And I definitely needed one. See, I just, it’s insane to me that Trask would let you walk free after you tried to kill Stefan. I told you, it was Megan DeMera who wanted Stefan dead. I thought you’d believe me.

I do. But I also believe that you were her partner in crime. You’re wrong. I had nothing to do with it. That’s where Trasluc and me go. There’s no evidence. I don’t give a damn about the evidence! I know you’re involved! And if you think I’m just gonna sit around waiting for you to, to attack Stefan again, you are sadly mistaken!

While it’s true that you and I have had our differences, and that I’d prefer to have you out of my way, Tamira, but that’s a far cry from condoning your murder. After all, we’re family. You’re my brother and I will always feel a deep connection to you. I wonder if anybody’s got a tissue box. Mark me all you want, but if there is one thing father impressed upon me strongly, is that family loyalty is extremely important.

Well, he never impressed that upon me because I never got to meet the mighty Stefano DiMera. I think you two would have gotten on quite well. Actually, you remind me a lot of him. In fact, I would go as far as to say that you’re more like him than I am. Oh, thanks. I think.

You know, a while ago you and Gabby proposed we call a truce. I was too stubborn at the time to see it, but you were right. I think it’s time we started working together as a united front. And why? Megan’s gone. She’s probably off somewhere, setting up a mosquito net. Well, for now. But I suspect she’s already plotting return.

And in the meantime… She’s left a fox in the hen house.

If you happen to come across my chapstick, do be sure to keep it at room temperature. Oh, I will be sure to. I’ll call you later and, um, remember to keep your mouth shut. That’s not what you were saying earlier. Mr. Stark, you are incorrigible.

Auntie Kristen, how’s your day going so far? Well, definitely not as good as yours. What’s that supposed to mean? It means… Who were you sneaking out of the house just now? Was it your girlfriend? Her boyfriend.

And that’s when I ripped up the custody agreement. I was pissed that she was going to use my daughter as leverage. So you tell me. But then you decided to take matters into your own hands. Not another word. I told you not to talk to the police until I got here. Well, I know, but I didn’t figure there was any point in waiting because my daughter already told Detective Hunter everything that went down, okay?

Besides, I’m not gonna lie. I’m not gonna lie about this or anything else because earlier today, I accused my own daughter of being a liar and I pretty much hated myself for that. So, I’m just, I’m, I’m gonna be honest. Completely honest here. It’s what’s best for everyone, okay? Besides, the truth always has a way of coming out.

My, my, my boyfriend. I assure you, I

have no idea what you’re in my ear. She said that yesterday, uh, she saw you and Leo Stark in bed together. Now, she thought it was a sleepover, but us grown ups know better. Yes, yes, I, that, I, I can explain. No, no need, no need. I figured it all out on my own. Figured what out? I happened to catch Stark with his hands in the cookie jar.

Yeah, he was snooping around here trying to figure out why you’re about to marry his best friend. I summarily threw him out, but somehow he must have doubled back. I’m guessing he found the codicil about your inheritance, and before he could blow the whistle… Well, you let him, you know,

blow the whistle. Colorful way of putting it.

But correct. Yes, I had no choice. I had to keep the chatterbox quiet, and so I took one for the team. Oh, manner of speaking. I’ll be the first to admit it. It’s all rather demeaning, having to resort to such lengths. So, I… Trust. You will keep this between just the two of us. Of course. I have a vested interest in you receiving that inheritance of yours.

You do? Mm hmm. How else am I gonna get my cut of the von Leuschner?

Merchant. Marty, I was wondering where you were. You missed the spectator meeting. Oh, the meeting, that’s right. Totally slipped my mind. Obviously, since you’ve been M. I. A. all day.

Care to share what you’ve been up to? Well, I, um, I have been working on my fabulous new column about… Get this, do you know that there’s an app just for cuddling? Creepy, right? Although you would be surprised how many people are starved for intimacy. All this is just to say that I have been doing some gonzo journalism, a la Hunter S.

Thompson. Hey, with a better skincare routine. Right, okay, yeah, um, what I understood from all that rambling that you just did now is that you’re writing a column on cuddling. Why, you don’t believe me? Well, it’s, um, I don’t know, it’s not very lady whistleblower like, is it? In fact, it sounds like a total snooze.

And also, you barely said a word to me last night, and then you were gone before I woke up, and you and I both know that that never happens, which is why… I get the feeling that you’re avoiding me. What? Gwen, you’re my best friend. Why would I be avoiding you? Because of Dimitri. Dimitri, what about him? Ever since I said yes to his proposal, you’ve been…

distant. And I know you’re not a fan of him, but… Gwenny, I told you, I’ve been working my little tooth shop, burning the midnight oil. I’m not avoiding you.

Okay, I… I know, I just, oh, I suppose I’m just being a bit paranoid is all. It’s just I haven’t heard from Dimitri today, which is a bit odd, don’t you think? Given that we, we just got engaged.

I

think

I made a

Gwenny, I have a confession to make.

The reason you haven’t heard from Dimitri is because… He’s been with me.

So you don’t trust Dimitri? Why would I? And why would you? We both know he and his mother are thick as thieves. It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s agreed to carry out her nefarious plan, spying with that bitch from afar. What you’re saying is you think we’re all still in danger. Which is why right now, Cooler Heads must prevail.

We need to put aside our differences and deal with our nephew. How do I know this isn’t some 3D chess move designed to get me to let my guard down? Well, you’re just going to have to trust me. Sounds like a foolish enterprise to me. Oh, for God’s sake, this was your idea. Yes, I know. But, I meant it. So did I.

Look. Why don’t we shake on

it? Okay. Fine. Great. Wonderful. Now, let’s figure out, together, how to deal with that chip off the old block Dimitri von Luischner. I think I know exactly where to start.

Gabby, put the gun down. You’re not gonna shoot me, okay? You don’t have it in you. Is that what you think? Oh, oh, you don’t remember. You’re not the first ex husband that I, that I would shoot and kill. Maybe you and Nick Fallon can compare notes where you’re burning it out. Okay, hey, hey. You don’t have to do this, okay?

You’re gonna end up in prison. Orange jumpsuit, solitary confinement. Been there, done that. You have left me no choice, thanks to you. Because you attacked Seven at our engagement party. Who’s to say you won’t do it at our wedding? Because I won’t. You have my word. Your word? Your word is crap. It is meaningless.

You loved me once, Gabby. Remember the great times we had together? I was a fool to even give you the time of day. Let alone love you, you Sick bastard. But you know what? I do love Stefan. With all my heart. He is the love of my life. And I will do anything to protect him.

Gabby, just listen to me. This isn’t necessary. I’m not going to go after Stefan. As much as I’m still in love with you, I get that we’re over. I know that now. Oh yeah? Since when? Since my sister came to visit me at the police station. Jingwen made me face some hard truths. Including the fact that I shouldn’t throw my life away over you.

Admittedly, it’s difficult to hear, but she’s really smart, and she’s also right. So, I’ve decided to move on with my life. I’m gonna stop ruminating over the past, pining over you. Believe it or not, I even hired a matchmaker. Matchmaker? Have a look at my laptop. I, I, I filled out a profile on everything.

I don’t recall you being a cat lover. You’ve listed Lisbon as your home away from home. I, I never seen you reading the Wall Street Journal. I’m looking for someone who’s a little sophisticated. Maybe. And I’ve visited Portugal, it’s one of my favorite countries. And I even fed a stray cat for a little while when I was in college.

I’m trying to cast a wide net, okay? God help the woman that you do catch. But I think the evidence is convincing. No? No, I’m trying to move on from you. And Gabby, I promise, I swear, I’ve come to my senses about you. I’ve accepted that you don’t love me and you never will. And I’m not going to come between you and Stefan.

So you just expect me to hand over a portion of my inheritance to you? Well, I think it’s only fair, Dimitri, that given that safeguarding your secret comes at a great cost to me. You see, Gwen is my friend and former cellmate, and now I have to lie to her. Right. I’m sure that’s gonna be a real hardship for you.

You snide son of a bitch. You know what’s a real hardship for me? Is being separated from my daughter. And if I have any hope of getting custody of her, I’m gonna need all the power and money I can get my hands on. Fine. How much money do you need? Do you have a number in mind? A number? How long is a piece of string?

Just tell me how much you need, dammit. Well, I figured since your mother’s gone AWOL, I can just have her piece of the pie. I don’t think Mommy Dearest will be too keen on that. Well, Mommy Dearest shouldn’t have tried to kill Stuffin. Or drugged me and EJ and… Cruelly hell dust amongst aging bottles of e nil.

Oh, but you weren’t in on that, were you, sweetie? Absolutely not. Oh, well good. Then, uh, if Megan Haddon had been so disappointing, I mean, some say she was rotten, conniving, evil sister, um, she could have stayed here and enjoyed all her money, but I’ll be happy to enjoy it for her.

So, Nephew, do we have a deal? Ah, there he is, our bon

vivant nephew, Dimitri. You know, your uncle and I, we were just talking about how nice it’s been getting to know you, and how we hope that you Stay in touch. Stay in touch. Are you two going somewhere? No, you are. Pack your bags and get the hell out of our house.

So, wait. Why were you with Dimitri? Okay, remember how I told you I was going to go back to his house to snoop around, play detective? Napoleon, according to plan, I was going to break out my sexy fishnet police costume and make a citizen dressed. Yes, because you thought that Dimitri had some sort of an ulterior motive for wanting to marry me, because you wouldn’t shut up about it, which was getting very tiresome, by the way, so…

I was quite relieved when last night you didn’t say anything about it, and I assume that that means you came up empty handed. You did, right? Empty handed?

Right. But before I could leave, Dimitri caught me in his room. Oh my god! Yeah, yeah, it was pretty tense at first. Then we went at it real hard, lots of back and forth, like two animals in the wild. Oh my, you mean it got physical? Yeah, I mean, it wasn’t knock down, drag out, but it was real rough. No broken bones or anything, no.

But, uh, have you two made up? I mean, is he, is he okay? Are you okay? I think so. I mean, my lower back is… Uh, never mind. Gwenny, listen, all of this is to say… that Dmitri convinced me how much marrying you means to him.

I know I have my reservations because I am so protective of you.

I have decided to give this marriage my full blessing.

I told Kristen, I said, you know, stop, stop with the games. And then I said… Out of, out of anger, out of panic, out of frustration that maybe I should kill her. Okay. Listen, my brother knows that he did a stupid thing. But it was born out of fear and desperation. You know, he believed that Kristen was gonna run off with his daughter and that he’d never see her again.

Okay, well that doesn’t give him the right to threaten murder. With a gun. Might I add a gun that he stole from his father? Listen, Brady knows what he did was wrong. That’s why he’s here coming clean. He’s not a violent criminal. He’s just a dad who loves his kid very deeply, okay? Detective, listen, I’m mortified by my behavior, okay?

I really, really am. And it was driven by the fact that I thought I was going to lose my daughter. But out of panic, and out of anger, and out of frustration, I profoundly regret it. So what do you say? We let this one go. Absolutely not.

I’ve heard this, I have heard all of this before, Lee, sorry, you probably don’t remember, but when you were signing those divorce papers, you made it seem like you were taking the high road, like you were bowing out gracefully. I even thought that we could end up friends. But then you had to go and plot the murder of my fiancé!

Look, I’m not saying I had any part in what happened to Stefan, but I will admit that I wasn’t quite as ready to let you go as I thought. Of course, I wanted to do the right thing. I wanted you to be happy. But in hindsight, I was a wreck. I was a heartbroken, miserable wreck. And it overwhelmed me. I couldn’t recognize myself anymore.

That, that justifies this? Oh god, if I was, if I just became homicidal every time that I was heartbroken Please, just let me finish. I, I, I’m in a much better place now. Heartbroken, sure. But the misery’s starting to let up a little. And who knows, if you let me live, I’m supposed to go on a date this evening.

And if I meet the right person, and we’re a good match, then maybe I’ll be able to move on from you. Not maybe, not maybe. I will. I must. I finally believe it’s possible. I’ve finally come to grips with reality. Fine. Fine! Go. On your date, Liv. But let me tell you something. I still do not trust you. And if you ever come after me or my husband again, I will pump you so full of lead, they will not be able to identify your corpse.

Oh, good luck tonight.

Sorry, Mr. Black, you threatened to kill someone while brandishing a loaded firearm. He was trying to It doesn’t matter what he was trying to do. It was a felony offense. The threat was made in the heat of the moment. Kristen had kidnapped his daughter. Not according to his daughter. She is a child who is trying to protect her mother.

Listen, this is all just a messy family dispute that got blown way out of proportion, and it can all be resolved without the police. Yeah, see, this is where I disagree with you. Uh, look, detective, I have dinner plans, so let’s just wrap this up. Uh huh. So, take Mr. Black down for booking. What? You can’t do that.

I just did, and when you’re done with Mr. Black, get a statement from Kristen DeMera. I’m sure she’ll have plenty to say. Oh.

Well, this is an interesting little… Plot twist? So you two are actually in agreement for once? In the face of a common enemy, EJ and I spoke and we decided to call a truce. If by common enemy you’re referring to my mother, well then I completely understand. But as I was just telling Aunt Kristen here, I had no prior knowledge of her schemes.

Why should we believe that? Because I’m telling the truth. I would never condone violence towards my own family. Sorry, Dimitri, but your impassioned protestations notwithstanding, we don’t trust you. Simple as that. Since for all we know, you and your mother could still be in cahoots. So I’d suggest you get out your suitcase and start packing.

All right, brothers. Brothers, let’s just all take a mindful pause. I think that we are, uh, being a tad unfair to Dimitri here. I’m assuming he’s guilty by association, not to mention Dimitri has shares at DiMera, as do I. And you know that, Peter. Will always vote with me. So do you really want to alienate a big chunk of your voting block?

Well, sister, I believe that’s a moot point since now Stephan and I are working together. Oh, you sure about that? I can be very persuasive, especially when I want something very badly. I could just, um… Talk to Lee Shin and Steven and… Kristen, what are you saying? I’ll be indirect. What I’m trying to say is now that you two have called a truce, I think it’s in all our best interest that we stick together as a family.

I know this is going to sound a little crazy, but, uh, I think we should give it the old college try.

Well, that’s quite the 180. I have your blessing.

Of course you do. You’re my best friend. My day one, always. If you’re happy, I’m happy. I’m really quite chuffed, Matty. I am. I have to say, I’m a bit surprised. I mean, when you have it in for someone, it’s very hard to change your mind. I mean, let’s be honest, you are a petty little twat sometimes, aren’t you?

Well, I’m not going to argue with that. The thing is, I… I saw another side of Dimitri. He’s not the James Bond villain I thought he was. Wow. He must have really worked his magic to make you flip like this. You could say that.

Hold the phone. Hang on. When Dimitri caught you in his bedroom, that was yesterday. So, why were you hanging out with him today?

Yeah, I am glad you asked why I was with Dimitri today. Because I was just about to tell you my beautiful friend slash bride to be. Once, I was on board with the wedding. Your groom shared with me a capital S secret. What kind of secret? Well, it’s really more of a surprise. For you. For the wedding. That’s why you haven’t heard from Dimitri.

We’ve been planning it today. Oh! Oh,

right, okay. Well, I suppose that explains the radio silence, then. Hence why I didn’t tell you last night that I ran into Dimitri. I was trying to keep his secret… secret. So, please, don’t let him know that you know that we’re planning something. Yeah, I know. Lips are sealed. Pinky promise? Oh, Matty, I am so, so grateful that you’ve come around.

You don’t even know. I mean, it means the world to me that my best friend and my husband to be are actually getting along. You have no idea how happy you’ve made me.

Why are you suddenly so protective of Dimitri? What gifts? Money, Jay. Can’t you figure it out? It’s what father would have wanted. Solidarity. Family meant everything to him, as we all know. Now, I understand that you don’t trust Dimitri. But, I am willing to vouch for him. Fine. But if one of us ends up dead because of him, that’s on you.

I can live with that. Stefan, we agreed. I know. We don’t have a choice. Demetri, you can stay. For now. Dammit, Stefan, you don’t get to decide. Barstin and I decided, and you’re outnumbered, brother. This is insane. You will regret this, both of you. Thank you, Uncle Stefan. And, uh, you too, Aunt Kristen. Thank you for sticking up for me.

Oh, it’s my pleasure. And I’m sure you’ll find a way to pay me back.

Oh, you didn’t even bring me over out there. What’s going on? Uh, why don’t we go upstairs? I’ll explain everything. So, where have you been? Uh, I’ll explain that later when we’re alone. Yeah, I just sat down. How will I know what she looks like? Okay, I’ll be on the lookout for a woman with long, dark hair, wearing a blue dress.

Yeah, thanks again.

You’ve gotta be kidding me.

Detective Hunter, what can I do for you? I’m here to ask you about an incident that occurred between you and Mr. Black. All right, listen. I did not, nor would I ever, kidnap my own daughter. Yes, Rachel said the same thing. Well, then why are you here? Because she also said that Mr. Black threatened you with a gun.

Well, I wish to hell you would have kept your mouth shut. You know, the whole, you have the right to remain silent thing. No, I’m sorry, Belle. I’m grateful that you got me out on bail so quickly. Yeah, well, this is going to be a tough one, Brady. You really made my whole case a whole lot harder. Sis, I’m not really gonna go to prison, am I?

You heard Trask. She’s on a warpath. So if Kristen decides to press charges, yeah, there’s a very good chance you could go to prison.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Jerry Prentiss, are you in there? My name’s Steve Johnson, I need to talk to you about Abe Carver.

Hey! Sorry Jerry,

I didn’t want to do this. Dr. Johnson’s husband’s getting very suspicious and it was you or me, so I had to throw you under the bus. Hopefully you’re long gone by now. This time, I was up against a wall, and I had to choose myself. Nurse King! Oh,

sorry. I hope I’m not interrupting anything. Um, it’s all right. I know why you’re here. Lonnie’s furlough is over. Yeah, I’m gonna take her back to prison. Not commissioner anymore, but, uh, I did volunteer to oversee the transfer. It’s gotta be easier for her to deal with someone she knows. And likes. Thank you.

Yeah. So, uh, you wanna call her? The thing is, um, you’re here. And she’s not.

Jerry guy telling me the truth? Could dad really be alive?

Dad!

Dad, are you in there?

Daddy.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

She’s not here? That’s what I said. Yeah, Paulina, that’s not good. There’s not much time for me to get her back before her furlough expires. I know, I know, but she just wants to sit in the park alone. Pull herself together after the funeral. Okay. Well, there is actually a little bit of time, but she can’t be late.

She’s gonna screw up her chances of getting an early release. She won’t screw this up. She, she wants to get back to Eli and her babies as soon as possible, but… Maybe you should call her. I can’t call her. She’s a prisoner. She’s not allowed to have a phone. Oh, I forgot. She has, she has been gone a while now.

I’m gonna go to the park. I’m going. Oh, well, I’ll come with you. I just pray, I just pray to God that she hasn’t lost track of time. No more. No more. It’s true. Oh, my He wasn’t lying. Who are you? Dad, I’m Lonnie. I’m

your daughter. I’m sorry. I don’t know

you. That’s right, you have amnesia. Dad, everything’s gonna be okay now, okay? I’m gonna take you home, to your family, to everyone who loves you. Daddy, come home.

Dr. Johnson, you startled me. Oh, I’m sorry, I just couldn’t help but overhearing that you… You feel like you’re against the wall? I mean, is there something I can do to help? No. No, no, no. Everything’s fine. Well, I don’t mean to pry, but it didn’t sound like everything’s fine. I mean, you said something about choosing yourself first over who?

No, not, not who. It’s more of a what. It’s just that as much as I love this hospital and this town, it’s time for me to put myself first and Say goodbye for good.

Just get it before a judge, okay? ASAP. Hey. Hey. I was just getting a new search warrant for the DiMera place. Oh. Well, that may not be necessary because Brady may be getting Rachel back as we speak. Oh, good. So Kristen admitted to hiding Rachel? Well, let’s just say she hinted at the fact that Rachel would magically reappear if Brady signed a new custody agreement.

So, I wrote one, and Brady should be signing it right about now. Rachel! What is the matter with you, Brady?! I thought we had an understanding. I thought we were gonna work this out. An understanding? No, no. What you did was blackmail, okay? You don’t get to kidnap my kid. Ow! Ow, okay. And then use her to dictate custody issues.

That’s not how it works. You I had a feeling that she was gonna re appear once you know what? Now, who’s to say? Huh? I am!

You came armed, Brady? For this? Since when do you own a gun? It’s my father’s and it’s loaded and that’s all you need to know. So, so if Rachel doesn’t appear, you’re gonna shoot me in cold blood? I’m thinking about it! Now where is she? I am telling you I don’t! No! But if you feel like you need to wave that gut around a little longer, if you’re feeling manly, but then we need to get down to business.

Now did you bring another copy of the agreement? You don’t, you don’t, you don’t get it. There’s no more agreement. There’s not an agreement and you’re not calling the shots. Do you understand? You’re not! I am.

Jerry Prentiss, can you hear me in there? I got here as soon as I can. How’s Jerry Prentiss? Nurse King saw him outside Abe’s room. Yeah, the day Abe disappeared. And he also happens to be the guy who saw Abe go off the docks. Hell yeah, we want to talk to this guy. No, I don’t know man. He’s either stonewalling me or napping in there.

Ah, not with the racket you’re making. I could hear you all the way out in the street. Well, if we don’t have an invitation, I guess our options are limited. That’s a fact. So let’s go to work. One for the money. After you. Two for the show.

This is where I left her. Okay, so where did she go? Huh? Maybe she said goodbye to someone before she left? No, no, I don’t think so. She saw everyone she knows at the funeral. Okay, but this is a straight shot back to your place, so if she was going back there, we’d have crossed paths with her. Oh, Rafe, this just doesn’t make sense.

I mean, yes, yes, she was grieving over Abe, but, uh, you know, maybe she needs some time alone to collect herself, but she knew she had to get back. Now, why would she forget about that and just disappear?

Ted, you have to take my word for it. This isn’t your home.

You know, I know

this. Paulina, she, she brought me home when I got out of the hospital. I, I, uh, she told me this. This is my home.

Whitley told you this

was your home? Paulina told me. Paulina, if you, if you were my daughter, you’d know this. Right there. Right there is our wedding picture. It’s right there.

It’s your card.

Okay, dad. You have to understand me, okay? That woman in that picture is not your wife. She is not Paulina.

You’re quitting the hospital? Yes. Today. I hope I’m not leaving you in the lurch. No, uh, no. It just seems kind of sudden. I’ve been thinking about it for a while, actually. I just made the decision. I’m moving back to Scottsdale. Actually, I told your husband about it a little while ago. Oh, you saw Steve? Yes, he introduced himself and wanted to talk.

Uh, well, about Mayor Carver, I assume. He’s investigating what happened to Abe. Yeah, well, I told him everything I knew, although it wasn’t much. I feel terrible that I can’t be of more help. Well, we all are concerned about Abe. But I still don’t understand why you’re leaving. Well, it’s not that complicated, you know, although I love this hospital and this town.

It just… Feels as if things are different. They’re, they’ve changed. How so? Oh, I don’t know really. It’s just, things feel different since Mayor Carver died. So, um… You’re quitting your job without notice and leaving town for good all because of Abe?

Yeah,

looks like someone knew you

were coming.

Not leaving because of Mayor Carver. Not exactly. It’s just that he’s like a metaphor. For what? Well, him dying sort of sums up how the whole town is ailing too. It seems that way to me, anyway. So, like I told your husband, it’s time for me to put my needs first. And so, I’m gonna go, and I’d like to use my vacation time for my two week notice.

Well, I, uh, doesn’t look like I’m gonna be able to change your mind. Uh, well, why don’t we go back to my office, and we can talk about your exit package? Oh, no, no, no, that’s not necessary. Plus, I’ve got to get home to my cats and I’ve got to start packing. Well, this is pretty important stuff. I mean, you don’t want to put it off.

It’s probably on the website, so I’ll just, you know, work that way. Sorry. I gotta go. Okay, well, it’s gonna take me a minute. I gotta get on the phone to accounting. They’ve gotta, they’ve gotta cut you a check. You know what? You could just mail my check to Scottsdale. I’ll give you my address when I land. It has been wonderful working with you.

You are a great lady. You’re really great.

Okay, I gotta go. It doesn’t make sense that… She finally knew she could be late reporting back to that prison. She knows she has to keep a spotless record. She’s been counting the days till she gets out of that place. All right, all right, hold on. Let’s just take this one step at a time. You said she wasn’t going to go anywhere to say goodbye to anyone, right?

Okay. So let’s just think. What would she be thinking about if she knew that she was going back to prison this afternoon? What would she be trying to do? She’d make it back to my place in time. Now that’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. No way she’d screw this up. Oh my god. Oh my god! Oh my god! Pauline and Pauline.

Hey, please. Just try and calm down, okay? I promise you, I am going to find her. And you mean the way you found Abe?

Okay, so let me get this straight. Kristen said that if Brady signed a custody agreement that Rachel would just magically reappear? Well, that’s what she implied. But Kristen is too smart to actually admit that she had Rachel. Well, it’s still blackmail and kidnapping. Yeah, and Brady knows that. But he also knows how dangerous and volatile Kristen can be.

He would do anything to get Rachel away from her, and he’ll deal with Kristen later. But this is exactly what Kristen wants. He is playing right into her hand, and you are helping him do it. Okay. I get that you’re frustrated. And I get that you’re frustrated about more than just this case. Listen, I hate what happened to Rafe.

And just so you know, Sean is miserable. He hates that the acting mayor overheard him talking about your relationship. Oh, that’s good to know. But the fact of the matter is that Sean is only suspended. He can come back to the force, but thanks to him, Rafe’s career is over. We don’t know that. Well, what I do know is that if Rafe was here, he would be just as pissed at Brady for pulling this end run as I am.

I

see that you’re here for business. I give. I give. You won. You won. Now, Rachel, she’s… She’s down there in the secret passage.

She’s… Go! No! Brady! Brady! So! So! I’m sick of your damn games, Kristen. You’ve been using our daughter like a chess piece. You did the same thing, Brady! I did it to protect her from you! Because you are crazy! You are nuts! You’re incapable of loving her at this point! Damn you, Brady! No, you do not know how to love!

All you want to do is win! You don’t want to lose. That’s why you’re here because you’re lost in court and you hate losing just like your sociopathic father. Our girl is our daughter. She is not some prize. She’s mine too. She is not a possession, Kristen. And I can’t have you in her life. I don’t want you in her life.

I don’t want her to have this. I might as well just kill you right now. Daddy. Okay.

Dad, do you understand what I’m saying to you? Huh? The woman in that picture is not your wife. Dad, she is not Paulina. If I had a phone, I could show you, okay? Dad, I know you would remember her. You love her so much. Paulina

never said I had a daughter.

She said I had a son. Theo. Dad, she’s He was here. No, Dad. She’s lying to you. She’s tricking you. Uh, why? I talked to Theo earlier. And he is so worried about you. I saw him on TV. Dad, look. We can talk about all of that when I get you home. Okay? But I need to get you out of here, Dad. Paulina says I can’t leave the house.

Dad. Dad. That woman is not Paulina. She is a nurse at the hospital who somehow got you out of there with no one seeing you. And she has been keeping you here. Paulina works at the hospital. No, dad. Whitley works at the hospital. And she knows everyone is looking for you. Your family, the police. She faked your death, dad.

She made it look like you drowned. Dad, I was at your funeral this morning. Okay, she made it to where everyone would stop looking for you. She faked your death, Dad. You watch Body and Soul? This could be one of their stories. Please, Dad. Please. You have to come with me, okay? I will help you to your chair.

Okay, you have to come with me, and we can go. No! I can’t let you do that.

Baby? Sweetheart, come here. Come here. What are you doing? Stay out of it. Baby, baby. Oh my God, you’re okay? You’re okay? Hey, look at me. Everything’s okay. No, it’s not okay. You said you were gonna kill Mommy. No. No, no, no. Honey, no, I would never do that. I, I need, I needed her to tell me where you were. I heard you.

No, I, you, honey, you disappeared from camp. I didn’t know where you were. Nobody knew where you were. And I, I, I would do anything to make sure that you were safe, okay? But I would never kill anybody. No. Rachel, baby, come here. Rachel, come here. You stay out of it! Don’t talk to her like that! Just don’t!

I’m sorry. I’m sorry. There’s no need to take this out on you. I understand that Sean feels terrible about this, but he shouldn’t. It’s not his fault. It’s ours. Rafe and I brought this on ourselves. We kept working together even though we knew. We knew how we felt. I think the blame goes to whoever created these draconian regulations.

I feel so awful. I mean, here I am, I’m still at work. While Ray P, he’s out on the streets. Listen, if there’s anything I can do legally, you know I will. I don’t think there is. We knew the regulations, and we knew what would happen. God, it’s just so stupid. I mean, we, we need Rafe. We have a missing child, and we don’t even know what the hell really happened to Abe.

Well, no clothes, no suitcases. No Clifton on the counter over there. Son of a bitch took off in a hurry. Why? Did he know I was coming? I mean, Nurse Ting was the only one who knew I wanted to talk to him, and it wouldn’t have made any sense for her to warn him. Well, nothing about this case has made any sense, has it?

Well, maybe he started feeling the heat and decided, uh, to get out of here before people started putting two and two together. Yeah, if he was behind what happened to Abe. And that’s still a big if, which is why I wanted to talk to him. By the looks of this place, it looks like he booked out of Salem. Yeah.

So, how’d he haul out of here, plane, train, car? Bus? Clean up. Hey, we can’t cover the airport, the train, and bus stations between the two of us. No, we’re gonna need some help with that. Let’s see if I can get some. Hey, Jada.

Steve, what’s up? I’m calling about that witness who saw Abe fall off the docks. Jerry Prentiss, the actor? That’s right. John and I decided to have a little talk with him. Turns out, he was in the hospital near Abe’s room the day Abe went missing. Now he’s gone too. We’re in his apartment. Looks like he grabbed his stuff and ran.

You want me to put people at the airport, train, and bus stations? Yes, please. I’m on it. If he’s still in Salem, we’ll find him. Thanks, appreciate it. She’s on it. Alright, thing is, we don’t know when the guy split. I just hope it’s already not too late. Don’t you look at me like that! We both know none of this would have ever happened if you weren’t spending your time sneaking around with detective hunter This isn’t about me and Jada.

All right, and we need to stay focused and try and find Lonnie This is about you and Jada. You were fired for sleeping with a subordinate And if you two had focused on your jobs Instead of each other, maybe he would have found Abe before he fell off that dock.

Then there wouldn’t have been here. Maybe she wouldn’t have been so sad and felt the need to be alone. Maybe she would have got back later. Now she can’t be

It’s

too much! Shh. Shh. Elena. No, Dad, that is not Paulina. Paulina, you won’t believe what this woman’s been telling me. And who is this woman? This woman is your worst nightmare. I’m Lonnie Grant, Abraham’s daughter and wife of FBI agent Eli Grant, who is going to be very interested to hear all about what my father is doing here.

He’s, he’s very ill. He’s being nursed back to health. And it is imperative that he not have any stress whatsoever. So I’m gonna have to ask you to Shut up! Just shut up. Do you have any idea the hell that you’ve put all of us through? His family, his wife? We were at his funeral this morning. I’m gonna have to ask you to leave.

This is just ridiculous. Get out of my house right now. No, no, I don’t think so, Nurse King. Jerry told me everything. Jerry Prentiss? The guy that you hired to play my brother? But your act is over. I am taking my father home, and you are going to prison.

Prison? Who’s going to prison? It’s alright, Dad. We’re gonna get out of here now, and you’ll start feeling better soon. Okay? Don’t do this to us. Abe and I have a future together. We love each other. Please don’t do this to us. Stay here, Daddy. I’ll get your chair. No, I didn’t mean any harm. I was just trying to help him.

Can’t you see? Please, please, just have some mercy. Mercy? For you? I suppose I should feel bad that you’re sick and depraved. A. K. A. you’re crazy. But all I feel for you is contempt. And I am going to make you pay. I’m not crazy. I’m not crazy. I’m getting this chair. I can’t let you do that.

So, if this actor is the guy we’re looking for, what’s his motive? Was he maybe looking for a ransom? Well, if so, he’s taking his own sweet time getting around to it, isn’t he? Well, maybe something went wrong and he had to put things on hold. Mm hmm. Like what? Somehow Abe got away. Jerry said he saw Abe fall into the water.

Well, that’s better than him saying he pushed him in. Partner, if this is a kidnapping, why would you kill the hostage without even asking for a penny? Oh, b b better yet, better yet, if he saw Abe fall into the water, why did he even open his damn mouth? You and I both know how many rants have been paid out for people who are already dead.

And, and, and why in God’s name would he hang around until the police showed up? The only reason we know his name is because he talked to Eli and Rafe. So think about it. If Prentiss is the guy who kidnapped Abe, then everything he did after that makes absolutely no sense. Yeah. Maybe the guy’s just dumb as dirt.

Hey. Machine’s talking. Got an error message. Maybe he was trying to print something before he left. Ticket. Boarding pass.

Document jam.

Here we go.

Okay, Ty. I just got myself worked up to the point where there just, there was just no turning it off. Well, you have been pushed to the limit. Why don’t you just sit here for a little while and try to relax, all right? I’ll come back and recheck your numbers. But I really do think you’re gonna be fine.

She’s wrong. I’m not gonna be fine. Not after the things that I said to you. I was, I was cruel. The last thing I think is that you and Detective Hunter weren’t doing everything you can, and I’m, I’m just so sorry, and I’m mad at myself. Like Kayla said, you were pushed to the limit. We’re good. Yeah, but Lonnie, Lonnie isn’t.

She’s got to get back to the prison in time, and we still don’t know where she is.

Is that her? No. It’s the prison in Maryland.

Do you really think you should talk like this in front of our daughter? This is not helping the situation, Brady. This is a situation that you created. You created it, okay? So it’s over. It’s over. Quiet. Come on, we’re going. Honey, we’re going. But what about Mommy? Mommy? Mommy needs some time to think about what she has done.

Okay, but we, um, I want you to wait by the front door, okay? Rachel. Please wait by the front door, okay?

Fine! You… You’ve gone too far. All this to terrorize me. No, I’m not trying to terrorize you! Shut it! The only thing… The only thing that you had left… Was the fact that I have not told our little girl what kind of woman you really are. But that’s over now. She’s gonna know everything now. Don’t yell at her like that.

I don’t want to go to stay here with mommy. Honey, honey, it’s not gonna happen. We are leaving. We are leaving. We’re leaving. We’re leaving.

Well, said you wanted to see me. What is this about? Uh, well. Brady, he, uh, tore up this custody agreement, and it’s still legal, isn’t it? He tore this up? What happened? Where’s Rachel? Okay, everything just fell apart. Um, but Brady, um, he’ll listen to you, Belle. He’ll listen to you, and he needs to sign this. He does.

He needs to sign this, because you know you’re a mother, and you know…

You know how important it is that Rachel is not cut out of my life. Again. Where is Rachel? She’s with Brady. So where has Rachel been all this time?

You’re not gonna tell me, but I can make a pretty good guess. So let me just say this, Kristen. When you go too far, there are consequences.

Yes, baby. Baby, listen. You have to understand, I didn’t know where you were. Nobody did. I didn’t know if you were safe. I was fine. But I Honey I didn’t know that!

Listen, I want you to go to your room because I don’t know who that is, and then we will talk, okay? I don’t want to talk! Rachel! Go to your room and we will talk. Fine!

Just a minute!

Detective, hi. I was gonna call you. Uh, Rachel’s back. I know. Yeah, and I was right all the time. Kristen had her this whole time. So, you’re welcome to go to the DiMera Mansion and arrest her for kidnapping, please. I’m sorry, Brady. I’m here to arrest you. What are you talking about? What? Did you pull a gun on Kristen and threatened to kill her?

Is that, okay, is that what she told you? She kidnaps our daughter and, and she calls the cops on me? Mommy I did! Yeah,

lookie here. We got today’s bus schedule. About a dozen destinations. And each of those connect to a dozen more. A hell of a lot of places Prentiss could be headed to. Yeah, we gotta get to that terminal before he boards. Was that

smart? Letting it go to voicemail? They were calling to ask where Lonnie is. I just said she’s missing. They would alert federal marshals, she’d officially be a fugitive, and it would only get worse from there. So, what do we do? I have an idea.

Hi, this is Ray Fernandez. I am returning your call about prisoner Lonnie Grant. Yes. Well, I’m with her right now, and I will have her back at the prison before lockdown. Okay.

Well, that bought us some time. Let’s hope it’s enough.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

So, what makes you want to resign from the hospital, Nurse King? Oh, it’s not the job. No complaints there. And your wife, oh, she’s wonderful. Honestly, the best boss I’ve ever had is Dr. Johnson. I’m sure she’d be glad to hear that. But if you’re so happy here, why do you want to quit? Unless you’re going somewhere.

Uh, uh, Mrs. Grant, uh, what are you doing here? I thought your father’s funeral was today. Yes, uh, it was. You were there, weren’t you? My brother said he saw you standing at the back of the church. Uh, yeah. I just, uh, wanted to pay my respects. That was very thoughtful of you. Especially since it’s so strange that we even had a funeral.

What do you mean? We don’t have my father’s body, so we can’t properly lay him to rest. There’s still all these unanswered questions. Right. Of course. Which is actually what I wanted to talk to you about. Do you mind if I come in?

Uh, what do you not understand about goodbye? You are dead. Go. What

now?

Well, look what the cat dragged in. Hey.

Hey, Dave. Pretty, uh, pretty rude in service, huh? Those people that loved and respected Abe, it’s quite a turnout. Yeah, standing room only. It’s pretty great that you came, considering everything that’s going on with Rachel. You must be going out of your mind. I want my little girl back, obviously, but it’s not like she’s actually missing.

What do you mean? I thought she ran away from summer camp. She did. But Tink, I know exactly where she is.

Okay, so what you’re saying is that you will tell us where my granddaughter is only if you get something in return. Well, I didn’t say I know where she is. This is all hypothetical at this point. But yes, if I did know, I wouldn’t tell you without being rewarded. Alright. What is it that you want? My very own pony.

What the hell do you think I want, Marlena? I want custody of my daughter.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. I

know

you. Well, of course you know me. I’m Lorna DeLorean. Everyone knows me. But I know you too, Henry Marshall. Henry. Henry Marshall. As if anyone could ever forget the most powerful ice cream magnet in the world. But, um, why are you dressed the way you are? I mean, really, you look worse than Charlemagne after Cassandra pushed her into the country club Cinderella.

Hmm. I was in the hospital, I, I was attacked. By whom? I, I’m not sure. You’re not sure who put you in the hospital? I, I don’t remember.

Well, that’s not important. Don’t you worry Henry, we’re gonna get you back to your old self. Lorna is gonna take care of everything. She always does.

Going somewhere? What? Oh, uh, I just, uh, decided to go back to L. A. You know, give this… I can think of another try. I’m actually kind of in a hurry. Oh, I won’t hold you up. It’s just, with all these unanswered questions I have about my father, my mind is kind of working overtime. And I’ve been thinking about when I met you down at the docks.

What about it? Well, Theo said that you wanted to tell him something, but you never got around to it. Uh, yeah, I just wanted to tell him again how sorry I was. About your father. Yeah. That’s what you said. The thing is, right after that you, you took off pretty fast. I mean, are you sure we didn’t do something to make you nervous?

Well, as a matter of fact, I am going somewhere. Oh, really? So you’re not happy in Salem?

When are you leaving Salem? I’m quitting my job. And I’m taking Abe somewhere far, far away from here where we can have a fresh start. Well, it has nothing to do with Salem. Just after all these years, I’m ready for a fresh start. Right. I get that. If you don’t mind me asking, um, where are you headed? Oh, uh, I’m going to Arizona.

Scottsdale. I’m originally from there and I still have some family there. I bet. Considering you’re one of five kids. How do you know that? From your background check. What background check? The one the FBI ran on you after Abe disappeared.

Well, I would ask Sean if there had been any progress on getting another warrant to search the DiMera house again, but, um, he wouldn’t know. Why not? Because he’s been suspended from the force. What? For drinking on the job. He’s still struggling with what happened at the home? Yeah. For weeks he’s been numbing the pain with alcohol.

I know you understand. Yes, I do. I’d be happy to talk to him. Thank you. But I think that finding Rachel is the priority now. So you think Kristen has her at the DiMera house? No, I, I know that she does. I was gonna go over there and just tear the place apart, but Marlena convinced me to let her handle it.

Wait, so Mom went to the mansion? She did. She did. And with any luck? Marlena’s gonna be able to convince that psycho to give me my kid back. Well, if you want to revisit custody, there are several ways to do that. You could, well, you could hire a lawyer. Oh, gee, Marlena, I hadn’t thought of that. Sarcasm. So have you hired one?

Well, I couldn’t find someone who would take my case. Hmm. So kidnapping was the next logical step. Hey, you know what? Your hypocrite stepson thought it was a pretty logical step when he kidnapped my daughter last New Year’s Eve. You are withholding the orchid that would have saved three lives, including mine.

So, what Brady did, he did for a very good reason. Well, I have a good reason too, dammit. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Why would the FBI do a background check on me? I had nothing to do with what happened with Mayor Carver. Don’t worry, Ms. King. It’s completely routine. You see, in kidnapping cases, they need to check out everyone who had recent contact with the victim. And you saw Abe the day he disappeared. The day you left work early.

I was sick. I thought I was coming down with the flu. I’ve already been through all of this with agent Grant. I know You see, the thing is we’re not exactly clear on what happened yet, and this is Mayor Carver we’re talking about. We’re not just gonna let this go. Not me, not the cops, definitely not the fbi.

You know, Abe was Eli’s father-in-law. Mm-hmm. , that man is gonna keep digging until he nails down the entire timeline, accounting for every minute between when Abe went missing. And when he ended up in that river, I mean, where was he all this time? Who was he with? The agency needs to get every detail of the victim’s movements.

Especially from the last person to see him. It wasn’t me. It was Jerry. Uh, why

would he, uh, when you make me nervous? You kind of seem really nervous right now, Jerry. I’m just, uh… Anxious to get packed. Okay. Well, I will get out of your hair as soon as I get some answers. Okay? So, can we go back to the day on the docks real quick? It seemed like something was really weighing on you.

And of course, we appreciate your condolences. But are you sure, Jerry, that there wasn’t anything else you wanted to tell Theo? Like what?

Okay, Jerry. So many people love my father and miss him terribly. And also because it was a tragic death under mysterious circumstances. It’s especially painful for me because I used to be a cop.

Right. And I want to help with this investigation so badly so I can find whoever took my dad and give everyone who loved him answers. Including myself. But, because I’m not on the force anymore, I can’t work with the police, Jerry. But I still need those answers, desperately. So, please. Jerry, if you know anything, and I mean anything about what happened to my dad, please.

I would appreciate it if you would tell me. Because it would give me the closure that I need to finally say goodbye to my dad. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I lied. What did you lie about? Everything. All of it. My entire story was a lie.

Henry! It’s not polite to keep a lady waiting. Henry!

Oh! Oh, well, that is much better. You look perfect. Just perfect for what I have planned. So, are you ready? For what? To run for mayor of Pineview? This town has needed new leadership since the last guy got possessed by the devil. And you’re just perfect. But there’s still a lot of work to do. So you’re going to need me.

To do what? To be your Director of Communications. Well this is all sounding a little familiar. Well, that’s because I did do it once before but it didn’t work out so well. But this time, we are going to be a great success. You and I, Henry, are going to get you elected and nothing or no one is going to stop us.

Oh.

You’re sad.

Look, I know that your mom and Kristen have not always had the best history, but they’ve also been known to put their differences aside at times. I’m hoping Marlena will go in there with her expertise and help Kristen, you know, listen to reason. Brady, I hate to be the negative one here, but has Kristen ever listened to Rachel?

No. But she loves her daughter. And I think she feels guilty, Tank. She feels guilty that she’s keeping her away from me and from her grandparents. And if Marlena can go in there and make her understand that this is bad for Rachel, this is going to cause her damage, and appeal to her, mother to mother, I think that, with some luck, Yeah, she’ll be able to make her see the light, make her do the right thing.

You know, you can still do the right thing. You can repay the favor that I did for you yesterday, and you can tell me where Rachel is. Well, I can’t tell you what I don’t know.

You do know that whatever tactics you employ, Brady is never going to give you full custody. Of course I know. I’m not an idiot, Marlena. Well, then what do you want? I want Brady to share. No matter how you feel about me, you know I love Rachel every bit as much as Brady does. And you know that Rachel loves me.

And it is important for our child to have both parents in her life. So, now you know, hypothetically, How to resolve this situation. So I suggest you have a little chat with Belle.

I will talk to my daughter. And when you talk to my granddaughter, please tell her that I love her.

And your whole story was a lie. I never saw your father fall into the river. What, so did you see someone push him? No. I never saw Mayor Korver at the docks. Then how do you know he was there, Jerry? He wasn’t, but I was. What? You’re, you’re not making any sense. Of course my father was there. They found his hospital bracelet there.

They found his blood. Because I planted them. What? How? How, how did you get his bracelet and how did you get his blood? What did you do to him? Nothing! Nothing! Uh, uh, I swear, I swear. I didn’t do anything to your father. It was all Nurse King. Okay? Everything that happened, it was all a part of her plan.

You’re talking about Jerry Prentiss? The guy who witnessed Abe going into the water? Yes. He was the last one to see Mayor Carver. Oh, no, no, no. Hold on. I should have been more clear. I didn’t mean the last person to see Abe alive. I meant the last person to see him before he went missing. And that was you.

No, no. It was Jerry. Hang on. So you’re telling me, the day that Abe disappeared from this hospital… Jerry Prentiss was here.

Aren’t you a doctor? Shut up, Lorna. Oh, sorry. It’s just kind of hilarious. Anyone having the idea that looking at you, you’d be a physician. Well, how about everybody thinks that you are a raging bitch? At least I don’t dress like a whore. Well, you dress like a tacky whore. What are you doing here, Cassandra?

I’m giving you a reality check. Excuse me. You know, it’s one thing to rig the woman of the year contest, but fixing the mayor race? Well, that’s a whole different ball of wax. Well, I don’t have a clue to what you’re talking about. Oh, cut the crap, DeLorean. I’m on to you. And you know this big plan of yours?

It’s never gonna work. The hell it isn’t! Because I have the perfect candidate, and there won’t be any rigging or fixing, because Henry and I are gonna win this fair and square. Oh, well, we’ll see about that. Oh, what do you think you’re gonna do about it, Cassie? I’m gonna beat you at your own game. You see, I have my own perfect candidate right here.

Ah!

I appreciate your concern for me, but this, this issue with Sean is, is rough. I’m really sorry about it. And I’m also willing to talk to him for the 19th time. I know. It’s okay. Thank you. I appreciate that. He has agreed to talk to mom, though. Oh! I’m glad I found you two. Hey, Romina. Um, Any luck with Kristen?

She said she doesn’t know where Rachel is. She’s sticking to her story. Yeah, no surprise there. But, she said if she knew anything, she’d be willing to share. Okay. I can tell by the look in your eyes that I should assume that she wants something in exchange. Yeah. She would like to revisit your custody agreement.

Sweetheart, what are you doing downstairs? Attic is scary.

I know. Please sit down. But you know, that’s just a place where things are stored and you have your favorite books and all your lovely dolls. But it’s lonely up there, Mommy. I know what, I promise, this is, this is gonna be over very soon, alright? And you’ll only have to be up there for a little bit longer.

Um, but you know why it’s important, right? Hmm? Why you have to wear this? So the police don’t find me. Yeah, that’s right. And you’re doing such a great job. Remember when the officers, they came and searched the house and, uh, They walked right by you, surrounded by all those stuffed animals. Cause I was really quiet and I didn’t move.

That’s right! You did such a wonderful job! And so, it’s just a little bit longer, alright? So I’m gonna need you to go up to the attic, but this time we can throw a beautiful tea party. I’m gonna get you a little tea set, and some teas, and you can invite your little teddy bears and your dolls. Doesn’t that sound like fun?

I guess. Wow. Okay, um. What’s wrong, honey? It’s just… Is Daddy worried about me? I don’t like making them scared. I know, honey. And it’s very sweet that you’re concerned about your daddy. But you don’t need to be. Because like I said, this is going to all be over very, very soon. Hmm?

So let me get this straight. You’re telling me that Jerry Prentiss was here the day Abe disappeared. Yes, he was right outside of Abe Carver’s room, just lingering. Why didn’t you tell anybody about it? I didn’t think it was important. But when I read in the paper that he was the eyewitness that saw Mayor Carver fall off the docks, after seeing him outside his room, well, it seemed a little suspicious.

And you still didn’t say anything about it? No. Well, I didn’t want to get Mr. Prentiss in trouble. He’s such a nice young man. Or not. Wait. You don’t think that he could have something to do with what happened to A, do you?

Huh. Do I know you? Well, not yet you don’t, but you will. This is… Drumroll, please. The one, the only, the fabulous… Cassandra Clarkington. Cassandra. Cassandra. This is so confusing. Well, don’t you worry your handsome little head, before long everyone in this town will know my name, because I am throwing my hat in the political ring and running for mayor.

You have to be kidding. Oh, I’m as serious as a panic attack, darling. And I’ll be a shoo in with all of you. Oh my, vote for Sandra Cookies! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! And my first act, after I win, will be to bulldoze a town square and build my new discount store. Clocking Town! Ah! Doesn’t that sound fantastic? I think that sounds absolutely dreadful.

Henry, are you okay? I’m getting a strange sense of déjà vu. About what? Her. Cassandra? All men do. Hey, hey, watch it. No, no, no, no, not, not, not Cassandra. Sandra. Oh, well, why would you have déjà vu about me?

This plan. You raise the town square, you… You build a discount store. You’ve done it before, haven’t you? But you kept a secret. That’s not the only… What secret you’ve kept from me, is

it? Nurse King, what does she have to do with this? She’s the one who gave me the hospital bracelet, and his blood, and she told me to put them on the docks. Why would you do that? Uh, okay, listen, um, so my grandma was sick, and she couldn’t afford her medication, so Nurse King forged some documents so that, uh, her insurance could cover it.

Okay, I know it was wrong, okay? But when she asked me for help, I couldn’t say no. And I thought that I was helping, and I thought that she was a good person, but she’s not. Okay, you, you said that she did something to my father. What does that mean? Does she hurt him? No. Okay, then how does she get his blood?

What did she do to him, Jerry? Did she kill him? No. Then how does she get his blood? Tell you talk to me. She didn’t kill him. Then what? Your father is alive

Alright, that’s it. I’m going over to that house right now. I’m gonna put my hands around her scrawny Why Why not? This is just a ploy. It’s another ploy to get me to revisit the custody arrangement. That’s all this is I understand that But the thing is, right now, Kristen holds all the cards. And if you, if you do something rash, she could just pick up Rachel and take off.

Do you really want me to cave in to this diabolical woman one more time? I don’t want to. No, no! Belle, come on, there’s gotta be something we can do here, right? Listen, as much as I would rather be a sister than a lawyer right now, the fact that Rachel went missing works in Kristen’s favor. How? What? How?

Because you have full custody. So you’re responsible for all the decisions about your daughter, including what summer camp she goes to. The one that she ran away from. Oh, co… You’re telling me there’s a court out there that’s gonna think that this is somehow my fault? I’m saying that in the eyes of the law, the fact that she escaped on your watch, it looks bad.

Brady, this isn’t just about what Kristen has done wrong. This is really about what’s right for Rachel. I know, and I’m sure she gave you an earful about that. You know, it’s important for Rachel to have both parents in her life. I’m, I’m, I’m, I’m open to that. I believe in that. Tell her. Yeah, no, during the custody hearing, when Kristen was trying to cut Brady out of Rachel’s life, I tried to reason with her.

I tried to get her to see that a joint custody agreement would be the best thing for everyone. I, I wanted Rachel to have her mother in her life. Until her mother blackmailed me with using free women’s lives, including yours, I can’t believe you’re advocating for Kristen. I am advocating for Rachel. We’ve got to put aside our feelings about Kristen and focus on how that little girl feels about her mother.

Yeah. You know, Brady, If you did, uh, agree to joint custody, I could put contingencies in the agreement, so that if Kristen were to, I don’t know… Do a drug assault, murder someone, then I’d have my kid full time. Brady, I know this isn’t easy. But experience tells me, that the better things go with Kristen right now, the easier things will be down the road.

And you know what, before you know it… You’re gonna get to spend time with both me and your daddy, alright? Ah, come here. I love you, sweetheart, so much. I love you, too, Mommy. Mmm. Alright, now head back on up into the attic, and I’m gonna bring your fabulous tea set, and we’re gonna get all those beautiful teas that Harold

has. All

All

right. There you go, sweetie.

I kept a secret from you? Well, I don’t have a clue what you mean. Well, this isn’t about the store. This is about something else. This is, uh… Well, that’s a much bigger secret. Well, we only just met, Henry. How could I keep anything from you? You know, much less a, uh, earth shattering secret. Well, yes. Yes, it was.

It was. Earth shattering. Well, there was a time that she stole your recipe for a rocky road. Ugh, that was you, you idiot. Well, there was a time that you tainted his sprinkles with some mind altering hallucinogen. Yeah, this is, uh, this is, uh, This is about something else. This is, uh, It’s much more important.

I remember. I remember.

You and I. We have a daughter.

What do you mean, my father is alive? I mean, he never fell off the docks. Nurse King’s had him this whole time. Jerry, if you are messing with me I’m not! I’m not. Okay? She kidnapped him from the hospital, and she’s been pretending to be his wife this whole time. And she paid me to tell Abe that I’m your brother, Theo.

And he believed you? Yes. Yes. At first. And with his head injury, he doesn’t remember anything from his life. Well, that’s not exactly true. What do you mean? Hope, every once in a while, he has these little flashes, like, uh, memory comes back to him. And he tries to put the pieces together, but Nurse King won’t let him.

So about Mr. Prentiss. Do you think it means something that he was here the day that Mayor Carver disappeared and he’s the one who saw him fall into the river? We’re sure as hell gonna find out. Excuse me.

Hey John. Yeah, I’m still at the hospital. I spoke to her. She told me something very interesting. You got an address on this Jerry Prentiss guy?

Mayor Carver, he, he, he, he knows there’s something off, but Nurse King, she sedates him to keep him in line. Why would you be a part of something so sick? I didn’t know, okay? Uh, she said she needed me for an acting gig. And, and she said that it would help him with your father’s recovery. I didn’t know I would have to fake his death.

Where is he, Jerry? Where is my father? As far as I know, he’s still at her apartment, but she said that she’s gonna leave town, and she’s gonna take him with her. I’m sorry. For everything, I’m sorry. I’m so, so sorry! I’m sorry!

Okay, well, my assistant just emailed a PDF of the amended custody agreement to Brady, and you should be getting it right about now. Ah, so as soon as Kristen gets that, we get to have Rachel back. Yeah. Do you really think that giving in to Kristen’s demands was the right thing to do? I think the right thing to do is what is best for Rachel.

Honey, she loves her mother. She wants to spend time with her. And there’s, there’s not a court in the land that will not take into account what a child wants. I just wish that Kristen would have found a way to deal with this without involving kidnapping. Yeah, but now that Brady is willing to compromise maybe everybody can move forward in a, in a civilized way.

Spoke to Marlena. She said that you’d be interested in revisiting our custody arrangement. Word travels fast. She said that if I was willing to amend it, that that might help in the search for Rachel. I do recall mentioning that. Well, I think you’ll, uh, be very pleased with the changes then. Yes, I am.

Quite pleased. Do

you know, I

have a really good feeling about this, Brady. I just know that once I sign this, Rachel’s gonna be found.

You’re dead.

I have a good feeling about this too.

Sorry, Jerry, but I didn’t want to do this. Dr. Johnson’s husband was getting awfully suspicious. It was either you or me, so I had to throw you under the bus. Hopefully you’re long gone

by now. I’m sorry, Miss King. Abe’s daughter deserves to know the truth. I’m not going to be there when she finds him. I’m not going down for

this. A daughter? I only just met you, Henry. We don’t have a daughter. Oh, yes, we do. Oh, is he alright? Mentally speaking? He’s as sharp as a tack. Well, I beg to differ because what he is saying is impossible. Man. This, uh, You hear that sound? I don’t hear a thing. It sounds like someone, Someone knocking. See? I think I hear it now.

Me too. I don’t know what you people are talking about. All I see is a man who is clearly out of his mind.

Oh my god. Daddy.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yeah, baby. I’ll pick you up in plenty of time to get to the funeral. I love you too, sweetness.

Yeah. Too early? No, no. Fine. Come on in. How you doing, man? Any news on your granddaughter? Not a word. It’s obvious that Kristen has got her. We just don’t know where the hell she took her.

May I help? No. Looks like you got your hands full anyway. It’s okay. These are actually just pictures of Abe on taking over the church for the funeral. But I thought, I thought that sounded helpful. No, you don’t have to. You don’t have to. Honestly, I’m, I’m, I’m just doing this to, Do something to keep me from going crazy.

It’s kind of pointless, don’t you think? Since we both know exactly where Rachel is anyway.

If this is the police again, let me remind you, you will need another warrant if you want to come in. Kristen, Kristen, it’s me. Oh my God. Lonnie? Oh my God. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Mama, do you need any help? Well, baby, can you send Lonnie in, please? Oh, well, she just went out to run an errand. But, why don’t you let me help you?

Oh.

Mama. Oh. Oh. Oh, baby, no, uh uh. Don’t, don’t you start crying, too. No. And I’ll try not to. And you know, I can dole out tissues just as well as Lonnie can. Thank you. Oh. I just did my makeup for the third time. Oh. If I can’t make it through getting ready, how else am I going to get through Abraham’s funeral?

Good morning, sunshine. Here’s your breakfast and a soft boiled egg just the way you like it. Doesn’t Paulina take good care of you, darling? You are not. Paulina. You are not my wife.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. Is

there anything I can do to help? Mmm, wish there were. Cops have searched that mansion from top to bottom. They got nothing. Alright, so assuming Kristen is hiding Rachel. What do you think her endgame is? Take the kid and run? Eh, it’s doubtful. If she were to blow out of Salem for good, that would mean that she is ready to give up on Brady.

I don’t see that happening. But I’ve got her under surveillance 24 7 just in case. Well, that’s good. Yeah. Can I get you a cup of coffee? You look like you could use it. Oh, thanks, partner. Yeah, black and strong.

Did you get any sleep at all last night? No, not really. I think I nodded off for a minute or so, but every time I did, I had a nightmare. About Rachel? No. About Abe.

Second time, I had the exact same dream. Second time. On the dock, Abe is right there, same place where he fell into the water. And he just looks at me and then he turns around. Disappears. That shook me up too. Yeah, yeah, um.

I’m gonna say something that sounds a little bit out there. I’m starting to wonder

if maybe somehow it was more than a dream.

Mama, you have always been so strong for me. How about you let me be strong for you now? Especially since Big Mama can’t be here. Just looking at you gives me strength, my precious girl. Well, I’m here for you, Mama, always. And, I just want to say that I am so, so very grateful for the man that Abe was to you.

The way he loved and respected you. And I’m also grateful for, for what he meant to me. He was so kind and caring and, well, I had a dad again. After so many years without one. Yes. Yes you did. We both were so, so very lucky, weren’t we? To have that wonderful man in our lives. I

guess maybe I’m not as strong as I thought I was. Oh, baby. We just have to lean on each other. Okay?

Oh, Abraham, that’s just crazy talk. Of course I’m Paulina. Who else would I be? I saw her picture. And it wasn’t you. Abraham, you’re not a well man. Your memory’s very fuzzy. But you know what? This medicine will get you all cleared up.

No. No, no, no. I, uh, I don’t want it. I don’t want it. Ah, no, no, please. Ah!

I know you believe that Kristen is behind Rachel’s disappearance. I don’t believe it. I know it. I know it. I mean, think about it. I mean, if, if she was actually missing, why would Kristen demand a warrant from the police in order to search the house? Hmm? Yeah. Yeah. I understand what you’re saying. And if Kristen really believed that her daughter had run away or had been kidnapped…

She would leave no stone unturned to find her. Exactly. Exactly. She would be out here. She would be searching. Instead, I’m out here running around in circles while she’s sitting on her ass at the DiMera mansion right now. Honey, I can’t believe that you’re free. How did you manage that? Well, I’m not exactly free.

I’m out on furlough. So I can attend my dad’s funeral. Oh, sweetheart, I am so sorry about Abe. He was such a wonderful man. Yeah, he was the best. Anyway, um, I, I can’t stay long. I’m just, I had to see you. Especially when I heard that Rachel was missing. I know. It’s so awful. I mean, Brady made her go to that damn stupid camp.

And, of course, she hated it and she ran away. And, and now she’s disappeared into thin air and I’m just, I’m so worried about her. Uh huh. What? Uh huh. You wouldn’t by chance be lying to me, would you? Sister?

Theo, come in, come in. Hey, Chanel. Hello. Oh, good, good. You’re here. I asked Theo to go with us to the funeral. Oh, oh. I hope it’s okay. Of course it is. Why would you even ask? I’m glad we’re all going together. That’s right. Well, actually we’re not. What? Why not? Because I want you to swing by the Johnsons and pick up those pictures of Abraham.

Oh, but I can just text them to bring the pictures. Please! Just do that for me, okay? Theo and I will meet you at the church. Okay, um, sure.

Okay, love you, okay? Alright, I’ll see you guys there.

Uh, Paulina? I’m not great at reading social cues, but um, did you just send Shenandoah on purpose? You might be better at reading those cues than you think. Because, uh, oh, yes, yes, honey, I did. Theo, there’s something I want to talk to you about.

So, you think this dream was… More like a premonition.

I don’t know, man. I don’t know, maybe I’m just unsettled by Abe’s death, by all these unanswered questions. Especially coming off what we just went through with Doc and Kayla. Yeah, man, I hear you. You remember I had that dream about Kayla? She was still alive, trying to reach me? Yes, exactly. That’s exactly what this feels like.

Like, like somehow Ibrahim is trying to reach out, is asking for help. So do you think he might still be alive? It’s possible, isn’t it? I mean, think about it. Think about it. We don’t know how he disappeared from the hospital. We don’t know where the hell he was the whole time he was gone. We don’t know how he got down to the pier or why he went into the water.

Now obviously, we can’t say anything to Pauline about this until we have something concrete to go on. But none of this stuff is adding up. Okay, I agree. But dude, listen, we’ve been over this evidence a million times. Buddy, we just gotta do what we do best, and that is we go back to the beginning, from the moment that he disappeared from that hospital, we retreat every step here, because partner, we gotta be missing something.

Okay, we do what we always do, we go right back to the beginning, we start with what we know. And that is… There’s King’s statement.

Now, Abe, sugar, you just let that medicine do its work on you, and all of those thoughts will seem like a bad dream. I am your Paulina, darling, and I love you.

Who is it? It’s me. What are you doing here? All of our business is done. Why are you so freaked out to see me all of a sudden? What’s going on? Oh my God. What have you done to him?

Do you really think that Kristen has Rachel hidden in the mansion? Mm hmm. I know it. I know it. I feel it in my bones. I know it. You know, in fact, what am I doing out here? I’m going to the DiMera mansion right now, and I’m going to get the truth out of Kristen once and for all. I’m, I’m, I gotta go. No, Grady, you can’t do that.

You can’t.

Shirley, after all that time we spent together in the convent, you wouldn’t break the ninth commandment. And which one is that again? Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. In other words, bitch, don’t lie to your best friend. I’m not lying to my best friend. Look, the police came and searched this place top to bottom.

If Rachel was here, they would have found her, wouldn’t they? No offense to my former colleagues, but if anyone PD, it’s you. I am flattered you think so, but Rachel is not here. Okay, then why aren’t you out looking for her? I, I doubt that you would be here shooting the breeze with me if Rachel was really missing.

You know kidnapping is a crime, right? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, okay, hold on, just, let’s just say, theoretically, I had her. I mean, how could that be kidnapping? She is my daughter. You cannot be this stupid. You are the non custodial parent, Kristen. Listen to me. Hey. You just got out of prison, and I have to go back inside later today.

Little advice? Not that you’re asking for it. Enjoy your freedom. Find a way to legally enjoy time with your daughter. Yeah, but I cannot, um, I can’t even see my daughter unless Brady… I know. Unless you work things out with Brady. Yes. You can do that. Kristen, you both love Rachel. So start there. Take that first step.

Okay? If, if you know where Rachel is, now is the time to tell Brady.

So, what did you want to talk to me about? Well, sweetheart, um, I know you’re planning on, uh, giving the eulogy at your, your father’s funeral. And, you know, I think that’s… So brave of you, especially since Abe told me how much you hate speaking in public. I’m just not good at it. Oh, that’s not true. You did an amazing job delivering his speech on Juneteenth.

I got through it, anyway. Oh, no, you did better than that. Um, the thing is, uh, Theo, today is going to be a very emotional day. And, well, if it’s too hard for you to give a speech, I… Well, I just don’t want you to feel the pressure of anyone else’s expectations. I don’t really. I just… Well, I want to give the speech for my dad.

That’s what helped me get through the Juneteenth one. And, yeah, it’s gonna be hard, but I’m used to it. I’ve done hard things my whole life. And you’ve done them very well, Theo. Thanks. But I am really nervous about today, so… Paulina, could I ask you a favor? Anything, baby. Do you mind if I practice my speech on you?

For the Juneteenth one, I practiced with Chad, and maybe practicing would help. I I just don’t want to upset you, though. Upset me? Oh, well, if I could get out all my tears right now, right here in my own home, I’d be very grateful to you. Okay.

Um, I don’t usually like hugging people when I’m feeling upset, but can I hug you? Oh, of course. Oh, come here. You come here, honey. Oh.

Okay, Rafe and Eli both talked to Nurse King and her story’s been consistent. She said she, uh, went in to check on Abe. Noted that he was confused and she left. When she came back into the room, he was gone. He had none of the hospital cameras picked up any of his movements. Which makes it kind of hard to believe he was just wandering around out there.

You know what I feel?

It feels to me that someone had moved Abe in that hospital. We knew exactly where all the cameras were. It may be someone who worked in the hospital. But Kayla talked to everybody who was on duty that night. And she said no one saw any of that. That brings us right back to Nurse King. Okay. Eli did a background check on her.

And Kayla said she’s one of those exemplary employees. She’s had the same shift for 15 years. She never took any time off except for when her husband died a few years back. Oh, she left work early on the day Abe disappeared, right? She told the police she was sick. So she was sick on the day Abe disappeared, but didn’t miss a day of work for 15 years.

Until her husband died.

Hey, Mr. Johnson. Hey, Chanel. Come on in. Hey, Chanel. Hi, Mr. Black. I’m profoundly sorry, honey. I bet you’re here for those pictures your mom asked for. Yeah, Kayla found them. They’re right here. Thank you need?

Oh, no, thank you. We have everything we need and then some. Everyone’s been so kind. Coworkers, friends, total strangers. I mean, Abe’s nurse even stopped by to see if Mama was okay the other day. Nurse King? Um, I think that was her name. Uh, why?

Abe is fine. I had to sedate him, okay? Which is all your fault, by the way. My fault? What are you even talking about? Abe saw you on Body and Soul. And then he saw your name in the credits. He figured out that you’re not his son, so I had no choice but to give him a little break from reality. Oh my god, this isn’t right.

That’s what I came here to talk to you about, okay? I met Abe’s son and his daughter, and they’re wrecked. I mean, they love this guy, and they think that he’s dead. All because of you and this crazy scheme of yours. Okay, this is not some crazy scheme, Jerry. I love this man. He was meant for me and I’m the only one that can take care of him the way I can.

Yeah, right. Like you’re caring for him right now? Keeping him cooped up and sedated and away from his family? If you really cared about him, you would let him go. You shut up. You shut up! You have no idea what his life was like with those people. Yeah, you’re right. I don’t. And neither do you. But what I do know is that they’ll be grieving for no damn reason.

And that they’ll be crying at his funeral when he’s sitting in there, right under their noses. Yeah, well, not for long. I’m leaving Salem, and I’m taking Abraham with me.

Lonnie, I know that you’re out on parole in six months, and I don’t want you to do or say anything that might jeopardize you getting back to your family. Wow. So, in other words… In other words… I know that you, as someone who… Who’s been unfairly, um, separated from their children. You know, exactly, exactly how I feel.

I actually do. And Kristen, I want the best for you and for Rachel. I know how much you love her. But Brady is that child’s father. And he loves her too. Yeah, but I, I just, I don’t get to see her. I don’t, I know, Kristen, and I know you still have feelings for him. So, why do you want him to suffer? Huh?

All this time, Kristen, that I have been away from my babies. They’ve had Eli. Thank God. I can’t even imagine. How painful it would be for them to be separated from him right now. He is their world. And like it or not, that is what Brady is for Rachel. God, God watch me, why don’t you? Just think about it. Okay?

God. I have to get to the church. Look, I love you. I love you, too. You know that. Oh. I know.

You know what? I really wish I could be there at the service for you and Theo. I just don’t think anybody is gonna want me there. I would’ve wanted you there. Look, don’t, don’t worry about that. Okay? You just… You focus on reuniting your beautiful family. Do that.

It’s so wonderful to see you. Please, I just, I hope we get to see each other very soon. We will. Here. In Salem. Not in federal prison. Okay. Okay. I love you.

I will be. Civilized with Kristen, okay? Since when has civilized ever worked with her? Brady, let me do it. Wait, what? Let me go to the mansion and try to talk to her. No, uh, Marlena, you… No, no, no. I may not be a trained detective. But I am trained in knowing when somebody is lying to me. And I am trained in…

Having people open up to me. Man, nobody’s better at doing that than you, that’s for sure. Alright, I will go there as soon as I drop the pictures off. Okay, alright, alright, maybe, maybe, maybe you can get through to Kristen. Find out where my little girl is. I will do my damnedest. I know you will. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

And I didn’t think my father would fall in love with anyone else ever again. Not after my mother died. But, then he met this amazing woman, who changed his life. And she changed mine too. She always makes me feel important. She has a talent for that with everyone she cares about. And even when she made my dad angry, like when she was gonna demolish a town square, which would have been very dumb.

Oh, um, maybe I should… Take that part out. I know sometimes I can be too blunt. That’s very blunt, for sure. But, it’s, it’s, it’s true. So, keep it. Just, just keep it. Go on. Okay, um, where was I? Uh, oh, I got it. Um, And even when my dad was upset with her, They worked it out because they were made for each other. My dad really loved Paulina because she’s such a fun, interesting person.

And I love her too. I may not be her flesh and blood, but she treats me like I am.

I’ll take care of her, Dad.

I promise. Oh, we’ll take care of each other.

So, Nurse King came to your apartment? Yeah, Mama said she wanted to give her condolences when she found out the news that Ape had died. That was very nice of her. Yeah. I wonder how she got your address. Uh, she probably got it from his patient file. Or maybe she got it when she worked on Abe’s last mayoral campaign.

She was on Abe’s campaign? Yeah. She was a big supporter of his. She was even at the park for the Juneteenth celebration when they got married. Um. Anyway, um. I should get going. Thanks again for the treat. We’ll see you real soon, okay? Bye.

Kinda seems to me, we need to take a harder look at Nurse King.

What do you mean you’re leaving Salem? I’m quitting my job and I’m taking Abe somewhere far, far away from here where we can have a fresh start. I’ve been saving up for years, so we’ll lack for nothing. And speaking of money, there’s a big bonus in it for you if you would leave town too. You want me to leave Salem?

Why? Why do you think. You’re up to your neck in this mess too, and it would be better if you were away from here, somewhere, away from prying eyes and all the questions that you seem oh too ready to answer. But… Look, look, look, you’re an actor, right? You want to stay here and say hello to this? Nothing for you here.

Last I checked, they weren’t shooting any movies and TV shows here, right? No, definitely not. Okay. Well, look, I gotta get back in there to Abe. I’ll be in touch about the bonus. Just not a word to anyone. Okay?

Jerry. Why, why was he here? Oh, Theo forgot something. He had to come all the way back from South Africa. Isn’t that something? He’s not my son. It’s not Thea. Of course he’s your son. Silly. Don’t be so silly. Well, listen, I’ve got to go to the hospital and take care of a few things, but while I’m gone, you’re going to watch your stories.

Just let your friends from Pineview keep you company. What do you say? And when I come back… Darling, we’re going to start a whole new life together. Not the, uh, not my son.

Hmm. Well, I’m gonna see you two cupcakes and raise you, uh, a piece of gum. Am I interrupting? Uh, no. Um, it’s okay. Uh, you know, you could have used the front door like a normal person. I know. But then you wouldn’t have answered the door. I don’t mind going through the tunnels. I know my way around down there, having been held captive there a number of times.

Ah, yes, and so here you are. And to what do I owe the pleasure? Smart as you are, I think that you can figure out that I’m here on Brady’s behalf. About Rachel. Ah, and did you take a good look around for her while you were downstairs? In fact, I did. Yes, then you’d see for yourself that, uh, Rachel is not here.

I don’t believe you. Why don’t you make it easy on yourself? And everybody who loves Rachel. Tell me where my granddaughter is. So how you

holding up, son? Dad, I’m, uh, I’m nervous. Marlena just went over to confront Kristen about Rachel. Yeah, yeah, she told me that. Hang on a second. Hey, John. I just gave Kayla a ride back to the hospital. I’m gonna check and see if Nurse King is on shift. Maybe have a word with her. Alright, sounds good. Let me know what’s going on.

Will do.

Who are you, and why do you want to talk to me?

See, I told you they would accept you as their long lost heir, Kyle Von Furstenberg. Good

work. Well now, our business is concluded. Good. Because I’m tired of this charade. I am not Kyle.

I cannot see you either. It was a beautiful service, Mama. It was, wasn’t it? Seemed like the whole town was there. So many people I didn’t even know. Yeah. Uh, but I didn’t see Nurse King. Did, did any of you? No, but maybe she had work? I didn’t either, but I did see that guy Jerry at the back of the church.

Jerry, who was that? He’s the one who saw Dad fall into the river. Lonnie and I met him the other day. He was feeling guilty because he felt like he should have done more to save Dad, but… He can’t swim. Well, then what could he have done? That’s what I said. Well, I don’t know about the rest of you all, but I am ready to go home.

Yeah, me too. Wait, hey, Mom, do you mind if I just stay here for a little bit? I just, I need a minute. It’s not like they can’t keep tabs on me.

All right, all right, but just don’t stay too long. You know Rafe will be at the apartment soon because I know. He’s gonna take me back to prison. I know. Please do not worry. I will be there in time, okay?

Wait Before Lonnie and Eli showed up. You said that you had something to tell me. What is it? Oh I Just wanted to say again how terrible I feel about your dad, and I want you to know how Deep piece of her head.

Your psychological insight knows no bounds, really. You demand that I tell you what you want, but, uh, you really think that’s gonna work, Dr. Evans? Only yesterday, I helped you through hypnosis to get your memories back. When your sister kidnapped you. And injected you with mind altering drugs? Yes, yes, yes, yes, and I, I, I remember, uh, I thanked you for that.

Yes, but you didn’t pay me for it. Now, I, I, I don’t, uh, I don’t want your money. But you could pay me by letting me know where my granddaughter is. Hmm. Well, I’m sorry, I can’t help you with that. Kristen, you can’t keep going on like this. If you truly love Okay, just Stop.

If I did know where Rachel was, and I’m not saying I do, I’m not willing to give that information up for nothing.

I would need something in return.

Hopefully, hopefully Marlene will be able to get through to Chris. I was really hoping to hear from her by now. I just, um, gotta be patient. Hasn’t been that long yet.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Dr. Abraham. Most honorable man I’ve ever known. Best friend that any man could ever ask for. Cheers. Cheers.

My name is Steve Johnson. I was a good friend of Mayor Carver’s. Oh, you’re Dr. Johnson’s husband. Oh, I recognize you from the hospital Christmas party. You’re the one eyed Santa. Yeah, that’s me. Yeah. Well, uh, what do you want to talk to me about? Well, Abe’s stepdaughter mentioned to me that, uh, you’d worked on his election campaign.

Oh, yes, I did. I’m a huge supporter of Mayor Carver. And you were at, uh, his wedding to Paulina Price? Well, I was at the Juneteenth celebration, if that’s what you mean, along with the whole town. I also woke up early to watch Princess Diana’s wedding. What does that have to do with anything? Well, I’m just wondering if you could tell me…

Exactly what Abe said to you before he disappeared. I’ve already told the police everything, and I don’t mean to be rude, but I really do have to get going. Actually, I need to speak with your wife. Do you know if she’s in her office? She is. She just got back. What do you need to talk to her about? Actually, I’m tendering my resignation.

Oh, really? Why’s that?

So, uh, how about I make some zucchini bread, or pumpkin bread, or oatmeal cookies? I’m not hungry. Mama, you have to eat. Maybe later. Do you believe what they said? What? Who said? Everyone. About how my dad’s in a better place.

I sure hope so, honey. Oh, I sure hope so.

Uh, what do you not understand about goodbye? You are dense. Go.

What now?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

You are damn good, Chanel. Let’s hope those aren’t laced with a dangerous hallucinogen. Can I help you? Chanel Dupree, I presume. Yeah, that’s me. We haven’t been formally introduced. My name is Clint Rawlings. We have a lot to discuss. Hey. Hi. Coffee? Oh,

I would love some. You just come from the hospital? Yeah, I just left. We had a very eventful morning. Really? Care to share? Well, you might find it interesting. Marlena managed to deprogram Harris Michaels. Really? So he’s gonna be okay? To be determined. I don’t think you understand. We have completely broken through Megan’s conditioning, so you are no longer under her or anybody else’s control.

I’m glad you think so. Well, I think so, because it’s true. And there’s also no reason for you to receive any inpatient care. With all due respect, Dr. Evans, the only way to make sure that I never hurt another innocent person again

is to have me committed immediately.

So, who do you want to be in a committed relationship with? Buddy, me. A trip. Look, we’ll respect your decision either way. We need an answer, Wendy. Are

you suspending me? You’re leaving me no choice. You’re drinking on the job. You’re gonna hurt yourself or worse, someone else. Now, I’m gonna need your gun and your shield. Man, oh man. How do you not get dizzy standing up there on your high horse? What the hell does that mean? It means that you and I both know damn well that you’ve broken as just as many rules as any other officer in this department.

Careful detective. Careful? Yeah. How careful do you want me to be, boss? I mean, I was just as careful as you were when you started having sex with one of your other detectives.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Jada! Is it a nice surprise? Sorry, I should have called ahead. No, no need. My oldest friend’s daughter doesn’t need an invitation. Come on in. Thanks.

So, Steve, I wanted to say that I’m so sorry that you lost another long time friend. Thanks. Can’t believe Abe’s gone. Still trying to wrap my head around it. Yeah, me too. I’ve been on the job a long time, and I’ve seen a lot of bad things, but this… It’s hard to make sense of it. I know you and Rafe did everything you could to bring Abe home safe.

We did, but we still can’t help but feel that we let him down.

I wonder how Abe would feel knowing that instead of you being out there looking for him. You were too busy disobeying one of his last rules. My office. Now. No, you just put me on suspension, so I don’t have to go anywhere with you. I’m telling you, don’t do this. Why? What, you don’t want the rest of the department to know that you’ve been screwing Detective Hunt?

You don’t know what the hell you were talking about! Really? This lady whistleblower, she sure knew what she was talking about. Oh, really? Okay, so now we’re gonna believe everything that we read in Leo Stark’s gossip column? Or maybe… Maybe it’s the booze that’s clouding your judgment. Hmm. Yeah, well, I didn’t just read about it in Stark’s gossip column.

I got a first hand account.

You know, I appreciate you two being so patient with me. Giving me time to figure out what I want. Of course.

Trip, do you mind giving Johnny and me some privacy?

Yeah. Yeah, uh, I need to… Don’t check in with my dad anymore. Yeah, please let him know I’m thinking about him. And Tripp, I’ll text you. Okay.

Alone at last. Clint

Rawlings. You’re Abe’s deputy mayor. I was until his untimely demise. May he rest in peace. So, are you the mayor now? Acting. Mayor. I see. And I see you’re open for business.

Sample? I’ll think about it. Well, as I’m sure you know, we’ve been going through some challenges, but with everything that my family’s going through, I’m just, I’m really grateful to be back in business. I’m sure you are. I’m sorry. Is there a problem, Mr. Rawlings? Acting Mayor Rawlings. You’re damn right there’s a problem.

You poisoned half this town, Ms. Dupree. And if it were up to me, sweet bits would be shuttered for good. I know how upsetting it

must have been to learn that you were still susceptible to It’s a nightmare. It’s a nightmare. Only, I never wake up from it. I’m constantly in fear that I’m gonna wake up strapped to a bed and learn that I’ve hurt somebody else. I understand. I know how it feels to… To believe that you are no longer acting of your own free will.

And, and if you think you still have some residual effect, I’d be glad to see you on an outpatient. No, that’s not gonna be enough. That’s not gonna be enough. I need to be under locking. key 24 7 until a team of shrinks can guarantee me that Megan Hathaway and that freak Dr. Rolfe will never be inside my head again.

So it was you that had Michaels go after Megan Hathaway? Oh, what was I thinking, right? I mean, I knew that she had already had him under her control. I mean, we all knew that. And so did he. I mean, he’s a big boy. You know the risks? It’s true, but seriously, I should have known that she wouldn’t go violently when she found out he was trying to kidnap her and transport her to an off grid site.

He’s a pro. He’s probably done a hundred of these sort of things. Yeah, still, maybe. It still would have been best if he had gone with my original idea. What was that? I told him to kill the bitch.

Dr. Evans, as long as Rolf and Megan are out there, I am a threat. To you and everybody that you care about.

You didn’t seriously hurt anybody when you were under their control. Not this time. But what about before? The two guys that I shot in cold blood in Greece. What I did to Bowen Hope, the Johnsons, I attacked your husband and your stepson in San Francisco. Do you want somebody who’s dangerous and unstable like me walking the streets?

Now, this is more like it. Johnny.

Hey. No, no, it’s okay. I didn’t mind a little competition and, and… Besides, if anyone deserves to have two men fighting over her… It is you. Except… I’m not surprised to be one. No, no, no, no, no, you’re not. I’m, I’m, that’s not what I meant. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for it to come out like that. Johnny, this wasn’t about you competing with Tripp.

Okay, this was about me trying to figure out my feelings. You know, deciding who and what I need in a partner. No, no, I know, I know. And I get that, I respect that, and I am so happy that you chose me. And now the trip is out of the picture. You and I can really just focus on committing to each other. Aren’t you forgetting someone else in your little equation?

Uh, no. What do you mean, who? Who else? Chanel.

So you’re not gonna try the sample? Cuz I have to say my chocolate scones have been known to make grown men cry. This works a lot of people, huh? Why does? That bubbly irreverence. It’s easy to see how so many people have been charmed by you. Theo Carver. Xander Cook. And before that, there was your college professor.

Excuse me? And let’s not forget both Johnny DiMera and his twin sister, Allie Horton. And then there was Talia Hunter. Okay, wait a second. You going over all of the people that I’ve been involved with is really creeping me out. And for the record, not that it’s any of your business, but Talia Hunter only pretended to like me so that she could help Colin Bedford get revenge.

Yes, and then she threw herself and her boyfriend off a roof. All to save you. My God, how do you know all of this about me? And what is your point? My point? Is that you’re not just delivering delicious treats to Salem. Since you arrived here, you and your mother have brought nothing but crime, chaos, and salacious scandals to our fine city.

And it’s time someone did something about that. Mmm.

These are delicious. You’re right.

First hand account. About Jada and me? Yep. From Jada herself. Alright. She told you? Not exactly. Alright. Alright. So, Rafe came over to give me some good news about my sister. And, you know, that was a big relief to me. And then, one thing led to another, and… That’s all I’m gonna say. Well, I am very a great guy, and you’re a great catch.

I really hope it does work out. Thanks.

So you eavesdropped on Jada and Cade’s conversation. Well, detectives gotta detect, right? So yeah, yeah, I know all about your sneaky little affair. Burning question is, what am I gonna do with the information?

Well, John and I… Came up against the same walls on the investigation that you guys did. I kept thinking there would be some piece of evidence out there that would explain why Abe went into the water that night. And where he went when he left the hospital. You know, Rafe and I, well, the entire Salem PD, we turned this city upside down looking for him.

But I wish we could have done more. Hey, buddy. Hey, Dad. Hey, Dana. Hey, Tripp. Nice to see you. You too. Well, I better get back to the station now. Well, thanks for coming by. I’ll let you know if we turn up anything new. Same. See you,

Tripp. Bad day? Written all over my face, huh? Yeah, I think you inherited that from me. When you’re unhappy, you have a hard time hiding it. So what’s going on? What’s got you down? Uh, it’s about Wendy. Who I have very strong feelings for. And that’s a bad thing? It is now. Cause it looks like I’m about to lose her to Johnny DeMera.

What does Chanel have to do with you? And me finally getting to be together. I had to make a choice when it came to you and Tripp, and you had to make one too. Um, no. I didn’t because I wasn’t seeing Chanel the same time I was dating you. Yeah, only because she didn’t give you the chance. What? No! Wendy! You are the only woman that I want to be with.

I’m not so sure about that. Okay. Where is, where is all this coming from? Look, I’m not the one who needed to date two people just to make a decision. Well, because I was being honest with you. Oh, and I wasn’t being honest with you. I’m just saying… When it comes to your feelings with Chanel… I don’t think you’re being honest with yourself.

I know those poison biscuits cause a lot of trouble, but I had nothing to do with it. Except that it was one of your employees that did the poisoning. Okay, my, my bakery was sabotaged. I’m the innocent party here. Oh? Well, what about your customers? Some of whom suffered violent reactions and terrifying hallucinations.

Weren’t they? Of course, and I feel terrible about that. I’m not sure you do. Because from what I’ve gathered, you haven’t taken responsibility for the incident. Or for the fact that your unseemly involvement with Colin Bedford’s parents led directly to this mess. Oh my god, why are you attacking me like this?

What I am doing, Miss Dupree, is making it clear that the Rawlings administration is bringing law, order, and moral decency back to Salem, USA. Which means going forward, if you are involved in one more incident, I’ll see to it that you never do business in this town again.

Stale, by the way.

You asked Michaels to kill Megan

Hathaway? Ah, ah, ah. Ah, come on. I mean, you’re not going to tell Robin, right? Kate! What? Come on. Megan Hathaway is fine, so there’s no harm, no foul. No, I don’t make a habit of lying to my big brother, and you shouldn’t either. Listen, I, he would understand. When we were all presumed dead, John, Steve, Roman, they all considered taking out Orpheus.

Yes, I know. Roman told me. He also told me that he had a change of heart and went to Statesville to stop them from going ahead with their plans. But still, he would understand the impulse. I certainly do. What? Taylor, Brady, Little Miss Catholic School, Laurel actually has a little bit of the killer instinct.

I’m not saying that I condone cold blooded murder. Do I wish that Megan Hathaway was out of our lives for good? Damn right

I do. It is because of my husband that I have enormous empathy for you.

I know. I know that he was brainwashed by, by Rolf and Stefano. Yeah. The DiMeras have used mind control against people for decades. They’re the monsters. Not you. That may be. But they managed to turn me into a weapon not once, but twice. And I’m not willing to risk what could happen if they could do it a third time.

Are

you threatening me, Shawn? I’m just saying. That if you can break the rules, and you can get a pass, then why can’t I? You were drinking on the job! And you have been sleeping with your subordinate! What I do off the clock does not impact my work! And it’s no one’s damn business! Really? Yeah. Okay, what about, what about power imbalance?

Workplace ethics? Like… What the hell do you want, Sean? I want fairness. But at the end of the day, that’s up to you. If you wanna suspend me, fine. Go ahead. You wanna, you wanna treat me like crap? Go ahead. But it… I’m not a vindictive bastard. Meaning what? Meaning that I will be discreet. I’m not going to tell anybody that you’ve been hooking up with Detective Hunter.

Excuse me?

Deputy Mayor! I’m acting mayor now. For your sake, Commissioner Hernandez, I sincerely hope this detective’s got his facts wrong.

Acting Mayor Rawlings, um, I think you misheard. You mean you didn’t just accuse your commanding officer of having an inappropriate workplace relationship with one of your fellow detectives?

What’s going on? Detective Hunter! What a coincidence. We were just talking about you. I think

I like this new lethal Kayla Brady Johnson. I’m not condoning violence. But I want my family to be safe. Said the proud mama bear. Look, I hope that they find Megan Hathaway and put her away for life this time. Oh, amen to that, sister in law. Yeah. Listen, I need to go. Steve and I have a lunch date at home.

Yeah, I’ll walk you out. There’s someone I need to see.

Harris, even if I had you committed to Bayview, it doesn’t mean you won’t be conditioned again. Several lovely demure pawns have succumbed to mind control. Even after very rigorous psychiatric treatments. I, I get that. I mean, I was in intense therapy with those doctors overseas, but we know how it worked out for me.

But at least with inpatient treatment, I, I believe that will help me become mentally stronger. So I’ll be less susceptible to Rolf’s mind games.

What do you want from me? What, what do you mean? Well, you, you can commit yourself to, to, uh, to bathe you of your own volition. Yeah, but then I can check myself out too. But if you commit me, then I have no choice but to stay. That’s what you want?

Yeah. My mind has been so screwed with over the past few years. I

just need some time to heal.

For me this is about survival. And if I can’t rid myself of the fear that at any moment I might lose control of who I am or who I want to be, I just don’t know if I can go on.

So please,

will you commit me or not?

So, you, uh, just left Wendy there with Johnny DiMera? Yeah, what was I supposed to do? Chain myself to the couch? She asked me to go. Well, you know, when Bo and I were your age, we would fight for the lady’s hand. Well, times have changed, Dad. I don’t think Wendy would have appreciated me challenging Johnny to a duel.

What do you think turning tail was the answer? As opposed to refusing to leave? Were you afraid of being cancelled? Or arrested? Oh, man. Everybody’s so sensitive these days. Dad, you do understand that I have to respect Wendy’s wishes. Yeah, yeah. Well, I guess you do. Dad! Yes, of course you do. Okay, I’m not that much of a caveman.

I know that throwing a woman over my shoulder or on the back of Bo’s stolen bike, those days are obviously long gone. Yeah, that’s a good thing. Damn straight it is. We have to trust that women know their own minds, and that is what I am doing. If Wendy chooses Johnny, that is her prerogative, and I’m dealing with it.

End of story. What? What are you thinking now? I just wonder if Wendy really knows her own mind. Of course she does. And I have to accept that.

I think it’s just too cut and dry. I

don’t want to be with Chanel. I want to be with you. And yet every time I turn around, you’re racing off to be with her. Yeah, because she’s my friend. Okay, and she’s been through a lot of trauma lately. She was almost killed. She just lost her stepdad. Yeah, I understand. She’s going through hell, and I feel for her.

But you still think there’s something shady going on? No. Look, I like her. And I do not do girl drama. Then what’s the problem? The problem? Is that your first instinct is to always protect your ex wife and I don’t see that changing anytime soon Which is one of the reasons I’m choosing to be with Tripp

You can’t give up on Wendy that easily Have you been listening to anything? I just said of course I have You have to let her make her own choices And I’m hip to toxic masculinity and gender equality and all that stuff But you don’t have to be toxic and disrespectful to fight for someone. And I’m talking about the kind of fighting you guys do.

You’re smarter, more evolved generation. With your head, you know, with respect and decency. How am I supposed to fight like that? It’s easy. You just show Wendy what a good, awesome man you are. And that you’re in it for the long haul. I don’t think I’ve already tried that. I think that you’ve been let down and hurt by a lot of people in your life.

So when it comes to love, things get dicey, you have a tendency to cut your losses and, and run. To protect yourself. And I get that, man. I used to do the same thing when I was your age. Let me tell you something. If you really care about Wendy as much as you say you do, then you’ve got to let her know you’re not going anywhere.

Will

you do that? Will you at least consider it? I suppose I could. It’s just,

I feel like I’ve already humiliated myself enough. Even just being in this competition with Johnny. Hey. It shouldn’t be humiliating to give something all you got. Okay? And if it doesn’t work out, you can walk away with no regrets, knowing that you fought for it.

Okay. Okay, I’ll take your advice. I’m telling you, you won’t regret it. I better not. Thanks, Dad. Anytime, son.

Now, where are you going? You’re going over to Wendy’s, right? Yes, I’m going. I promise. I’m going. Okay.

So you’re really picking Tripp over me because you think I’m not over Chanel? Your connection with Chanel is only part of the reason. Okay, then what’s the rest?

Well, Tripp and I have been spending a lot of time together lately. Well, I’ve been with Chanel. Yeah. And my feelings for him have started to deepen. Oh. Oh, so it’s my fault. No. No, it’s not anybody’s fault. Look, you’re a great guy, Johnny. And I care about you a lot. Now it’s just… Have a hard time. But I, uh, really do hope that you and Chanel give it another shot.

I don’t want to be with Chanel. How many times do I have to tell you that? What do I have to do to prove it?

Goodbye, Johnny.

Bye.

What’s new?

Hey, you’re back. I’m back. Sorry I had to check on a few other patients. And I wanted to give that sedative some time to kick in. How do you feel? I’m a little more relaxed, thank you.

Good. Have, have you made a decision? About my request? I have.

It’s obvious to me how much you want this, so… I will commit you to Bayview.

Detective Hunter, your partner has just brought a very serious accusation to my attention. Sean? Oh, I didn’t make any accusation. Might I speak to you in private, Detective Hunter? I’m sorry, what is this about? Your relationship with Commissioner Hernandez. Okay, you know what, this, this really isn’t necessary, Mr.

Mayor. In here, Detective. Now? Sorry, Rafe,

I didn’t, I didn’t know that Rawlings was standing right behind me. Yeah, it’s a little late for apologies, Sean. Look, I can make this better. Okay, I’m gonna go in there, I’m gonna talk to him. No! I’m gonna… You’ve done enough. Now, I’m gonna still need your gun and your badge.

Now!

Yeah. Yeah, Mama and I got the flowers you and Henry sent. They were beautiful.

I know. I can’t believe it either. Abe is gone.

So, I heard you’re seeing someone. That’s great. All I’ve ever wanted was for you to be happy. Me? Oh, um, no, there’s no one new in my life.

Uh, Horton? Um, I, I have a customer. I’m, I’m gonna call you back, okay? Okay, yeah, you too. Bye, Horton.

Do you have a permit for that dark cloud you’re carrying around? It’s that obvious, huh? It is to me. What happened?

I just got dumped.

Hey! Hey!

Where’s Johnny? He left. Really? I figured you two would be celebrating your new official status as a couple. He and I have nothing to celebrate. What, he’s not excited about being your boyfriend? He’s not my boyfriend. Trip.

Okay, okay, I’m, I’m, I’m a little lost here. You asked me to leave so you could tell Johnny. So I could tell Johnny that I didn’t want to be with him. What?

I needed some time alone with him to explain why I chose you. Me? Yes, you. Dr. Tripp Johnson, you are the man I want to be with. That is, if you still want to be with me. Oh yeah, I do.

Mmm, something smells delicious. I hope you’re in the mood for some of my famous beef stew. Your amazing beef stew? Yeah. I think I’m in the mood for anything you’re cooking. Oh boy.

How was your day then? Well, two of my favorite people stopped by. Jada and then Tripp. Ah, for good reasons or bad? Jada was here to give her condolences about Abe, and… Well, that was nice of her. What about Tripp? Well, Tripp came to me for a little bit of advice on his love life. Uh huh. What do you mean, uh huh?

Tripp came to you for relationship advice. Well, not exactly, but I am his father. Oh. So you gave it to him. What can I say? When you have a gift, you gotta give it away. Hmm. So you say. Ah. So what about you? Busy morning? Um, well, actually, you know what? I stopped by the pub. And had a very interesting conversation with Kate.

Interesting how. Well, it turns out that my sister in law is the reason that Harris Michaels went after Megan Hathaway. It just didn’t turn out the way she hoped.

Knock, knock. Up for a visitor? Hey Kate.

Look, um, I need to apologize. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a card that said, Sorry that my harebrained scheme almost got you killed. You have nothing to apologize for. It was my plan, and it went awry. I’m actually, uh, I’m actually grateful to you. Oh, grateful. Yeah, if you hadn’t convinced me to go after Megan, I wouldn’t have found out that she still had the power to control me.

Yeah, well, maybe that’s a good thing. Let me know that I’m, I’m still a danger to myself and to the people around me.

But, uh, thanks to you, I’m going somewhere to get the help that I need. Okay, where’s that? Bayview.

Marlena, hey. Oh, hi there. Uh, uh, Are you here on assignment? No, um, no, I’m off duty.

Uh, wait, um, Look, actually, that’s, uh, that’s a lie. I’ve been, I’ve been doing that a lot lately. I’ve been lying to myself and, uh, and to others.

The truth is, I’ve, uh, Look, I’ve been suspended from the force. Oh my, what happened? Look, I’m in trouble. And, uh, Look, I need, I need your help. Look, I need your help before I make my life any worse than I already have.

Detective Hunter just confirmed that you and she have been engaging in an inappropriate workplace relationship. As you know, this is a violation of department policy regarding fraternization between city appointees and their subordinates. So I have no choice but to take immediate action.

I’m gonna need to take a gun in your badge. Okay, well, with all due respect, Mr. Mayor, you, uh, you don’t have the authority to suspend Detective Hunter. Oh, I’m not suspended, Mayor. Or you, for that matter. But as Acting Mayor, I do have the authority to appoint the Commissioner of Police. Or remove him. In other words, you’re fired.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Uh, hey. This is Tripp, is, uh, is Wendy here?

No.

Oh. Uh, well, do you, uh, do you know where she is?

Yeah. She’s out at the station visiting her brother

June one.

So happy to see you. Don’t, don’t what? Don’t pretend everything is normal, like you didn’t brainwash someone late, which is crazy enough on its own. You brainwashed them to take out your romantic rival, Jim Wayne, you don’t understand. Of course, I understand you didn’t want me to attend Stephanie and Gabby’s engagement party.

Remember? You tried to stop me cause you ordered Harris Michaels to crash the party and commit murder.

3, 2, 1. Open your eyes.

How do you feel? I’m just frustrated. We’ve been working at this for hours. Doesn’t seem like we’re making any progress. Well, I, I know this kind of, the programming takes time. You’ve gotta be patient with the process and with yourself. Maybe hypnotherapy isn’t working for me

objectively. I know it’s wrong. But I still have this overwhelming urge to kill Stephan Damara.

So is Stephan on his way? I haven’t told him what happened yet. Well, he doesn’t know that you were attacked. It’s just a few scratches, but I’m sorry, I, I can’t believe that Dr. Wolf jumped me. You know what? Next time that bastard’s not gonna be, so No, no, no, no, no. Next time. Do you hear me? No. Okay. And since, uh, that old bastard and Megan are still out there, maybe you ought stay with me at least till we catch ’em.

No. Okay. That it. Thank you. But don’t underestimate me big bro. Okay? I can handle this. Plus I just wanna relax. I wanna be home in the arms of my loving fiance. God, what the hell is wrong with you?

Where the hell is Rafe? He’s at the hospital checking on his sister. Then who is in charge down here? Uh, well that would be me, obviously. Is there a problem? Yes. Ms. Trask? Yes. Can you tell me why the divers are packing their gear up? Uh, maybe because they’ve searched every inch of the river and there’s no sign of mega deira or will hem wolf.

They’re clearly gone. So I’m calling it to search. You can’t do that? Uh, actually I can, and I just did. Detective Brady, do I smell alcohol on your breath,

like sand through the hourglass? So are the days of our lives.

Alcohol. Like why would I have alcohol in my breath? I’m on duty that you are detective.

What is this? But that, um, I don’t, it just, um, like I, I dunno, you see this makeshift memorial right here? People have been dropping all sorts of things off from Mayor Carvers. So, uh, I maybe they pour one his on or right. So if I take this down to the station and have it dusted for print, the results won’t come back.

Reading for a certain Sean Douglas Brady, uh, Be my guest. If you want to waste apartment’s, time and money, that’s on you. But I’m not gonna find my prints on that then I guess we’re gonna have to wait and see.

You know, Wendy was, uh, just pretty upset with her brother last night. How was she today? Still in shock. I wish there was something I could do for her. You know, I think you’ve done quite enough.

What’s that supposed to mean? What the hell were you thinking Johnny dragging? When did your family’s party, I mean, thanks to you, she could have been killed,

Jing. One. I would never put you in danger, but you did, Lee. You let me walk into a situation that could have gone very wrong. People could have died, including me as I told Gabby and Stephan. I believe Megan, setting me up. Just stop. Stop. Okay. I know it was you, Harris Michaels said so himself. And do you know how horrified I was when I heard that I was trying to defend you, but my godly Your actions are indefensible.

No. No. You’ve got it wrong. You know, when you decided not to fight Gabby on the divorce, I felt so proud of you because I thought you were finally taking the high road, you know, trying to make up for all your past mistakes, be a better person. But obviously that was all an act, and now instead of pride, I feel shame.

I’m ashamed that you’re my brother.

I’ve been in this situation before, thanks to Megan the last time the i s a used e c t to deprogram me and it works. So why don’t we just try that again.

I don’t think we need anything that risky. I think that we can try something else. Have another resort. Because your, your programming wasn’t as ingrained as it was before, but what does it feel like? That it has a vice grip on me. I understand. We’ll try something else. Please just get the electrodes and zap the hell out of me.

Nobody’s getting zapped on my watch.

Okay. Then what?

Something new and you’re going to have to trust me.

We are using hypnosis. To go back to the moment when you returned,

I want you to remember back to the moment when you were kidnapped. Can you do that? Mm-hmm.

Tell me, tell me where you are.

I’m, I’m in a lab.

Okay. Look around. Tell me what you see.

I’m strapped down to a gurney. I’m trying to get free, but I can’t. I feel groggy. Just everything’s blurry and off. I must have been drugged. Is there anyone in the room with you?

No, but I hear voices, muffled voices. What are they saying? I can’t, I can’t make it out. I think they’re out in the hall. Wait, someone’s coming. Who is it? It’s Lee Lee. Listen carefully. Commander, your mission is to go to Stephan and Gabby’s engagement party. Once there, you will find Stephan Demara and eliminate him.

Commander, you will stop at nothing to fulfill your mission.

You lied to my face. You said you were not gonna confront Megan, that you were going straight home, and now I find you here. Well, technically I didn’t use those exact words. I only led you to believe that I was listening to your advice. Do not get cute with me right now. Now is not the time. Had you listened to me, you would be home safe and sound.

And instead you got attacked by Rolph and handcuffed to Megan’s bed. I don’t even know why I bother with you anymore. Okay, Stefan, you’re upset right now and I get it. And I agree with you because what Gabby did was reckless and dumb. Excuse me. But the important thing is she’s all right. Yes, she is. She’s also standing right here.

Yep. Trying to help you. Gabby, after you jumped Michael’s, I saving your life. Let me finish. After you dropped Michael’s, you promised me you were gonna take these risks and more. You could have gotten yourself killed. How do you not see that? You know what? I’m you. I’m not gonna sit here and get scolded like a little girl who didn’t eat her vegetables.

I’m going home Good. Unless that’s another one of your lies. And I’m gonna get a phone call later that I don’t know. You went to question Hannibal Lecter and ya ended up in the bottom of a freaking well. Oh yeah. Well, the woman who spoke to Lecter and went after the killer, she’s a hero of this story. She saved the day and rescued that woman from the.

Does that mean what I think it means?

Does that mean what I think it means? You don’t wanna know.

Don’t you think? You’re being a little harsh. Mui moi. What happened to family loyalty? Family loyalty. Lee, you’ve lied to my face. You told me you were moving on. You even said you hired a matchmaker and then you attempted murder.

Wait a minute. That day I overheard part of your phone call. You said something about a big plan.

When I asked you about it, you claimed you were talking to a matchmaker, but you weren’t. You were talking about planning to kill stuff. It, look at me. Look at me.

What is wrong with you? When did you become so unhinged, so venal that you would go to such extremes to get what you want? Why couldn’t you just let Gabby go? Who are you to lecture me about letting go? You’ve been stringing along two poor stops for months.

Okay, back up. First of all. I didn’t drag Wendy along to that party. She was happy to come along with me. And second of all, how was I supposed to know that her crazy brother was planning to assassinate my Uncle Stephan? Please, you know damn well that putting someone in a room full of de mayors is like dropping them in a shark tank at feeding time.

Are you even listening to me? Wendy’s brother Lee Shin hired a hitman to kill my uncle. Stephan Demara, you know, the victim and all this. Selma doesn’t keep up with current affairs. What are you talking about? Your aunt Megan Demara was also apparently involved and now she’s on the lamb.

Maybe it’s slipped your mind, Misra, but we have more pressing matters to attend to, such as Megan Demara being on the loose, and yet you. You’re more concerned about, uh, a stupid empty liquor bottle. Yes, I am a hundred percent concerned detective. So maybe I’ll just take this out to the police lab and find out if it’s really yours.

Stop.

Fine. It’s mine. Are you happy now? No, I’m not happy. Why the hell would I be happy about a police officer drinking on the job? Actually, I’m a detective and currently right now I’m doing nothing. I’m just standing around waiting for the divers to report back. It’s not. It’s not like I’m in some high speed pursuit.

It’s not a big deal. Of course, it’s a big deal. You are an on duty cop. You are carrying a gun. You can’t have your judgment impaired. Does it look like my judgment is impaired? Yeah, actually it does. Why else would you prematurely call off a search for a a dangerous psychopath and her evil sidekick? Hey.

Nobody wants to find Megan more than I do. Okay? Nobody. But look around. She’s gone. And even if I, whatever, if I’ve had a few, it’s not like I can’t spot a submarine. I mean, for all we know, she’s sailed off into the land of blue meanies. You know what? Maybe you’re right. Maybe it doesn’t make a difference whether or not you’re drinking on the job.

Matter of fact, maybe you should have started knocking them back sooner. Maybe if you had a few, you would’ve been so quick on the draw when you shot your own father. Don’t

go to hell.

I want you to listen to my voice and accept what I’m telling you.

Lee Hin was the one who wanted you to kill Stephan. He put that idea in your mind and you did not want to do it.

Just keep saying it over and over. And over. It’s getting to me. It’s getting into my head. I understand. You have to ignore that. Don’t listen to it. Don’t listen. Can you do that?

Okay. Okay. Okay, good. Let’s go over this one more time. But this time you’re an observer, not a participant.

Listen carefully. Commander, your mission is to go to Stephan and Gabby’s engagement party. Once there you will find Stephan Deira would eliminate him. Commander, you must stop at nothing to fulfill your mission. Furthermore, you will believe it was who gave you the orders? Not me. If anyone should ask why you want to kill Stephan?

You are to blame Lee Hin.

It wasn’t Lee,

Dr. Wolf and Megan did this. They framed him.

You compare. My being indecisive with what you’ve done. Oh my God, Lee, do you do, do you even realize how insane that is? You have to judge me for being conflicted about not being able to choose between two guys for you to judge me for anything. I was only trying to point out that most of us are somewhat irrational when it comes to matters of the heart.

Yeah. Irrational doesn’t even begin to explain your behaviorally. And as for whom I choose to be with, I am not stringing anyone along. Okay. I, I am trying to figure out responsibly who is better suited for me. I am in the rare position of having two great guys wanting to be with me, and yes, it is flattering.

It’s so confusing. And difficult,

but I will make my choice at some point. And unlike you, I won’t be committing any crimes along the way. I didn’t commit a crime, Wendy. I told you that I was set up. Why the hell won’t you believe me? I dunno what to believe about you anymore, Lee. Well believe this.

I care deeply about you, J one, I think the world of you, and I only want you to find happiness, so will you at least allow me to offer my. Further Lee perspective.

Sure. Knock yourself out. Okay. I think you do know, maybe not consciously, but on some level, which one of those young men you are more drawn to, which one of them will give you what you need,

but because of your big heart. You’re reluctant to hurt the one that you’ll eventually have to reject, and that’s why you’re vacillating. Am I right?

I’ll take your silence as confirmation, and so I advise you, my precious sister not to procrastinate any longer. Take the stress off yourself. And relieve those young men of their uncertainty, their need to compete for your affection. Make that choice.

Wow. Yeah. I knew my aunt had locked my dad and Aunt Kristen in the basement, but I didn’t know she was trying to have my uncle’s stuff and killed. Yeah, just more proof that your family’s dangerous. So if you really care about Wendy, you’ll keep her away from them being awfully judgmental. Don’t you think I have a good reason to be judgmental?

I mean, I’m a victim of your crazy family too. Remember? That had me kidnapped. Oh, oh, yeah. Yeah. I do remember. I remember because it was right after your crazy mother kidnapped my grandma Susan, who is now dead because of your mother. So, I don’t think you get to criticize my family when yours is just as messed up.

My mom has a mental illness. Yeah, I heard about that. I bet she’s faking it. Just like she’s faked everything else. You best watch your mouth hear me. You’re the one who started this taking shots at my family, but I don’t think that’s what it’s really about. Your anger. See, I think it’s about Wendy and I think that you’re afraid.

That you’re gonna lose her to me.

Coast Guard’s gonna be keeping an eye out from Megan’s submarine. I’ve already alerted Isa. They’re gonna be checking international waters. Hopefully we catch a break. Thanks for the update, commissioner. No problem. Anything else? I’ll be in my office. Actually, there is one more thing. You need a fire Detective Brady over there for drinking on the job.

Look, first I gotta say that I’m getting really, really frustrated and kind of embarrassed in this little ridiculous competition we have between us. And although a part of me would just prefer just back out all together and just tell Wendy that I am done humiliating myself to try to prove that I’m more worthy of her devotion than you are for another part of me knows that’s do.

That would be to give up on her,

huh? I feel the same way actually. Okay, then okay, then let’s just. Stop with the, oh, I’m better for Wendy than you are. I’m, I’m closer to her than you are. I spend more time with her than you do. It’s just all juvenile and petty, don’t you think? I do think. All right, so given that we both don’t want to be petty or juvenile about this anymore, I say we both just do our best to be mature.

And dignified through all of this. Stop trying to prove who, who’s gonna make Wendy the happiest or who’s the better person. Just be ourselves. Let Wendy make up her own mind. I’m all for that. Me too. Let’s hope Blake like hell. You chooses me. You, you couldn’t give mature and dignified much of a shot.

Could you? Come on, man. I’m kidding. I’m, but really, I, I think the best thing we can do is just give Wendy her space and be patient. Yeah. Patient. Patient. You know, I’m trying to be patient with you, Lee, allowing you to weigh in. About my left life when it is totally irrelevant to why I’m here right now. And as I’ve said before, there is no comparing my indecisiveness to you committing a felony brainwashing someone to have someone else killed.

Why do you continue to accuse me when I never admitted that I did either? But clearly you want the moral eye ground and I will happily conceded to you.

You know, instead of being glib, maybe you should start figuring out a way that you’re gonna get out of this mess you’ve made for yourself. And if by some miracle you do find a way out, maybe consider this a wake up call. Because it would be a shame to throw your entire life away over a woman who has made it abundantly clear.

She doesn’t want you

top three. And he confirmed Pento means exactly what I thought it meant. I am not an ungrateful ass, coulda fool me, really? So I’m the bad guy here for caring about you, for worrying about your safety. Huh? For getting upset that you deliberately put yourself in harm’s way for no good reason. I had a good reason Steph and Megan has to pace.

She tried to kill you, and in turn you almost got yourself killed. Well, I’m still here. One piece. Why? Why are you being so stubborn about this? Why are you being so angry about this? Because you scared the hell outta me. Do you have any idea how freaked out I was when I heard what happened to you? I’m fine, but you almost weren’t.

It could have been so much worse

if Megan really was the one who wanted me dead, she would’ve had no problem knocking you off too,

and I never would’ve forgiven myself.

You are my entire world. Get me. You’re fine too.

Why are we fighting? Because we’re good at it, but we’re good at other things too.

I mean, it, it’s, it’s all coming back to me. Lee Chen didn’t order me to kill Stephan was Dr. Wolf. I, I, I’m pretty sure I didn’t even see Lee in the lab, but Wolf wanted me to think so. So I would blame Lee,

now that you remembered all that. When you see Stephan Damara, how do you feel?

Hi.

I, I don’t, I don’t feel anything

and those thoughts of wanting or needing

to kill him are gone.

Dr. Evans, I think you did it.

Well, it must be some sort of mistake. I have worked with Detective Brady for a long time, and there’s no way that he would ever drink on the job. Down at the docks, I smelled alcohol on his breath. At first, he tried to deny that he was inebriated, but when pressed, he admitted it. Is this true? Shawn?

I think that we, uh, we should discuss this in private commissioner, what is there to discuss? Detective, you drank on the job endangering the public commissioner. This man should be fired immediately. Yeah. To ask, this is my department and I suggest you focus on your own. Oh, I would much prefer to do that, but.

I can’t prosecute criminals if you can’t catch them. Mm-hmm. Maybe it would help if you didn’t have a bunch of drunks and losers on the payroll. Oh, well, as I recall, we actually have a suspect in there right as we speak. So maybe instead of worrying about my job, you should focus on yours and prosecute Lee Chen.

Now, if you excuse me, I have to take this. Hi, Marlena. Yeah, well, how’s it going with Michaels? What? Well, that’s great news.

Hey. Sorry, I yelled. I’m sorry too that I lied. Made you worry. I guess I just felt like I needed to take control of the situation. You. Take control of a situation. No, it’s, it’s so outta character. Stop. I’m being serious. Ever since Michael just showed to our party, I stopped thinking about how I could lose you again.

You don’t know what that’s like, lose here thinking that you’ve been gone forever. You’re right. I, I get it. I guess I’m the lucky one, huh? I didn’t have to live without you. Hard to have your heart broken when you’re in a coma, huh? Yeah, but easy to have it ripped outta your chest, literally. Hmm, true. Good point.

But hey, you didn’t have to suffer the way you did.

I mean, it was so stupid leaving your side that night to help my mother escape. That was such a bad decision. Obviously, and I suppose that tonight I made a similarly bad decision, one that could have torn us apart again. Okay, so how about we make a pact from here on out? We work as a team. After all. We are getting married in what, two weeks?

You’re right. No, you’re right. And then we’re going rogue. So we work together. We have a deal. Deal.

So you believe that leash Chen is innocent? I like if he was involved. I have no way of proving it. I, I never saw him. Mm-hmm. But what I do know is Dr. Rolfe implanted the idea that Lee was behind everything.

Okay. Well if you think of anything else, please let me know. I will brave. Now that he has been successfully deprogrammed, is it all right for him to go? You’re absolutely sure that he’s no longer a threat to Stephan or to anyone else. I will verify that myself and, uh, I’ll also testify in court that he was not responsible for what he did, and I can even submit a, an official report if that’s what you would like, I would.

Thank you. Does that mean I’m stuck here In the meantime?

Well, if Dr. Evans says that you are fine, then um, I’m not gonna argue with her. Listen, not. I wanna be keeping a close eye on you. And if for any reason that I deem you are a threat to anyone in Salem, I’m gonna slap these things right back on you. Understood. Yes, sir. Okay.

I have nothing to say to you. Not without my lawyer present. You don’t have to say a word just. Listen, Harris Michaels is changing his story. He, um, is walking back his accusation that you were the one who. Sent him to murder. Stephan Damara. Hmm. Told you I was innocent. Well, I’m not so sure about that, but lucky for you.

The only other people that can confirm or deny this new revelation have fled Salem in a submarine.

Does this mean that? I’m free to go.

So if you, uh, don’t mind. I’m gonna hang around for a little bit. Wait for Wendy to come home. What happened to give her space? Oh, you’re not doing that because I happened to live here, which is an unfair advantage, as you well know. And, and what happened to, you know, being mature about all this? Okay. Being mature doesn’t mean I’m willing to have you barging in here whenever you want to.

Putting your feet up on our coffee table.

Better.

Look, this is my apartment. I share it with Wendy. If you wanna hang out with her, you do it on your own territory or at least neutral territory. Fine. I’ll leave, you know, you know what I’ll do is I’ll, um, I’ll just call Wendy, invite her over to my mansion, uh, where our private chef is cooking up a delicious dinner tonight.

We’ll have a nice evening. Wow. Are you really going to start out how freaking wealthy your family is? Do you really think Wendy give the damn that you live in a mansion or that you have a live-in cook? I don’t think she minds it. Maybe she doesn’t mind it, but she also doesn’t give a rat’s ass, and she’s not a shallow jerk like you are.

You know, she cares about things that matter, like character intelligence. Oh, okay. So, so what you’re saying now is that, that you’re smarter than me, that you have more character. Well, guess what that is cool. Just, just go, man, disco. All right. Like I, I, I really thought that we could get past this whole teddy craft, but clearly I was wrong.

So just, just leave. Nah, I think I’ll stay. Hell, you will get outta my car. I can do that. Wait, Wendy, like that man. What, what is going on here? Uh, Wendy. Hello? I just was, uh, coming by to see how you were doing. Yep. And clearly she’s fine. So we’ll be seeing you, Johnny. Mm-hmm. Although, actually before you got here, uh, Johnny and I decided to be mature about this and not.

Petty and obnoxious and juvenile, but clearly he’s incapable and I don’t blame him.

Actually, I, uh, don’t blame neither of you for hating this. I stringing you both along, so it’s time to put an end to it.

Dr. Evans, thank you. I’m in your debt. Not at all. I am glad I could help though. And after everything you’ve done for me, I. I hate to ask for another favor. Oh, all right. What is it? I want you to have me committed to Bayview.

Thank you for letting me know. Yeah. Talk soon. My brother, apparently Michaels had a breakthrough and remembers that he wasn’t. Taking orders from Lee that, that this was a lie that Dr. Wolf implanted in his head. So EJ and Kristen were remembering accurately. They were telling the truth that Megan set Lee up.

Maybe I just can’t help shake the feeling that Lee’s and involved somehow, Wendy said Lee freaked out when she said she was coming to our party. He had to have known something. And if Lee ends up going free, he’ll definitely come after you again. I can’t let that. I mean, we can’t let that happen. That’s right.

We’re a team now.

No match for us.

So as a verdict, I spoke with Commissioner Hernandez and he confirmed that Harris Michaels can’t place you at the lab that he was being held, and he clearly remembers Dr. Rolf. Instructing him to put the blame on you. So you have nothing on me. You have to let me go for now, but I wouldn’t get too comfortable Mr.

Shin. So I’ll have my eye on you cuz I don’t like people that get away with crimes. Didn’t you decline to press charges against Talia Hunter when she poisoned half the town, including you? That young woman was in an emotionally abusive relationship. You know what my decisions are of no concern of yours.

Some might say I was in a emotionally abusive relationship with Gabby Hernandez. You really are an arrogant son of a bitch. An arrogant son of a bitch who’s free to walk outta here. Correct? Right after you get someone to uncuff me. This is the second time you’re slipping through my fingers, Mr. Shin, and I promise you next time you won’t be so lucky.

Hey, man. Um, thanks for having my back with Trask. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, I don’t take my orders from Trask. But I can’t ignore the fact that you have been drinking on the job. I, I promise it’s never gonna happen again. Oh, it’s just a one time thing, right? Except that it wasn’t right. What do you mean, Shawn? Come on.

Trust isn’t the only one who has noticed that you have been off your game. You’ve been late to work, your work’s been sloppy, you’ve been distracted. I mean, look, I’m trying to cut you some slack cause I know you were upset about your father. But I can’t look the other way anymore. Not anymore. What are you saying?

I think you need to take some time to get your act together. So until further notice, you are suspended from the force.

Johnny Trip. Look, I like you both a lot, but hitting you guys at the same time, it isn’t fair to anybody.

So it’s time for me to finally make a choice.

You mean like right now? I think it’s for the best.

Okay. Uh, Well then who is it gonna be? Is it gonna be me or…?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

So what do you think of this one? Well, I, um, it’s the best one we’ve seen. I agree, and it’s perfect for the kids. There’s a park right across the street. It’s close to the kids’ school. Each of them would have their own room, and we’d have enough space in our bedroom for a king-sized bed, our bedroom.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. I like the sound loud.

I think we should take it. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Then welcome home.

Yes. Well, we we’re gonna need the answers by next week. Sure. Um, actually, let’s not discuss the details over the phone. Okay. You know, how sensitive these deals can be. Yes. Right. Okay. I’ll see you then. Bye. You going on a trip? No, I’m moving out. Oh,

there. Hello. Wow. Do I not even get a Chloe? My wee Bonnie Las. It’s wonderful to see you. Okay. That was a bad impression. I sorry, Lauren. Not in a very jolly mood today, I’m afraid. Oh no. Oh yes. How year to date revenues are down 30% and that’s taken into account the Saxon deal. You closed. No wonder you’re not in a jolly mood.

Well, maybe this will help. Well, how could that possibly not help a flying cactus and a cowboy hat? One of the big travel websites is doing a promotion for Southwest getaways, and I’ve sold them on a huge ad buy-in for our online edition. The ad agency gave me this to work on a printed version. When you say huge buy-in, oh, why don’t you see for yourself?

Boom. Oh, that is definitely substantial, and I’m. Very relieved and back to my jolly old self. Oh, I thought you might be, have I ever told you you are absolutely fantastic at your job? Is that the only thing I’m absolutely fantastic at? That’s definitely not the only thing.

Okay. Easy there, cowboy. Did you not have enough of me this morning before work? I cannot have enough of you.

Okay. Okay. Not here. Can’t here. Come on. Why not? I mean, we’ve done it in your bedroom. We’ve done it in my bedroom. We’ve done it in every conceivable place in our apartment. Variety is a spice of life. So why don’t we shake things off a that then do it in the office.

So you accepted Dimitri’s proposal. Mm-hmm. It looks like you and I are going from friends to family, auntie Kristen. Ah, yes. Uh, congratulations. I suppose my, you are thrilled, aren’t you? I know why, though. You are surprised at how fast this is all moving.

Are you sure you don’t have a problem with me using Gwen to get what I want? No, actually, I’m not surprised at all.

I’ve got you now. Z Yvonne Ner

Sarka. How are you doing in my room? What am I doing? I am about to expose you for the delicious swindler You are? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. The jig is up. D v L. You’re only marrying Gwen to get your hands on this money. That’s preposterous. Yeah, we’ll see about that. Where do you think you’re going to tell Gwen everything and there is nothing you can do to stop.

Thank you. I think there is.

Like Sands through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Speaking of home bedrooms, we could go Chris, on this one. Oh, well we don’t have a bed. Well, that’s never stopped us before. Mm-hmm. True. Maybe we should sign the lease first. I’ll just text the realtor really quick.

So then, oh, hi. Hey, hey, hey. What’s up? Hey, Stephanie. I’m. I came to check this apartment out. I’m looking for a place for me and Rachel. Uh, too late. Sorry, Chad and I just decided to take it.

Xander, this is really not appropriate. We are at work. That’s right. And I’m your boss. You have to do what I say, which makes it even less appropriate. All right? Unless I say yes, and I say yes. It’s a definite. Definite, yeah. Mm-hmm.

So you’re not surprised that Dimitri and I got engaged so quickly? No. No. I am not, because I know how much you wanted to move on from Sander. This is not about Xander.

Dimitri, as corny as it sounds. Sort of swept me off my feet. Really? I’m sure he did. You see, my nephew can be very charming. Not to mention persuasive. I do hope your future mother-in-law’s imminent. Return to tasteful doesn’t put a damper on your impending nuptials. I wish you and Dimitri all the best.

Gwen. I really do. Thanks.

Ow. Ah, ow. Ow. Yourself. I think I just broke my hand on that cheekbone. And where were you smiling at? You were smiling at me. I was simply smiling back. I wasn’t smiling at you. I was smiling because I was right about you. I know what you’re up to. D V L. You think if you just kiss me and press that hard body of yours up against mine, that you can persuade me to indulge in the pleasures of your flesh in exchange for my silence.

You think if you get me into bed and satisfy every single one of my wanting desires, I won’t tell Gwen what you’re up to. So am I. Right.

That’s odd. Usually in by now.

Oh my God.

What the hell is going on here? We were just going over Chloe’s new Abbi. To me, it looks like you were just going over Chloe. Okay. You know what, I’m gonna go get some coffee. Does anyone want anything? Yes, please. I’d like you to get the hell out of here. Thanks. Oh, look for the first time you and I want the same thing except for me, obviously.

I’m so sorry that sounded so much funnier in my head. See you soon.

Sandier, your cactus is looking a bit pricker from the last time I saw it. I wanna have a doctor have a look at it. There’s nothing wrong for Mike. Cactus.

Sorry, you had to see that you’re not nearly as sorry as I am and not because I’m jealous. Mind you. No, not in the least. See, I don’t care if you are having sex with Chloe Lane or Lady Gargo, or Miss Bloody Piggy for that matter. You know why? Cause I’m quite busy myself, actually. Yes. Giving an amazing man the most amazing sex that a woman can give him.

So there

No. No sir. Despite whatever rumors you may have heard. To the contrary, I am not that easy, and now that I know for sure that you’re just marrying Gwen so you can cash in on your inheritance. She needs to know the truth.

Wish she doesn’t know can hurt her. Sorry, not interested.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Maybe I would be interested if you hadn’t just made my best friend an offer, a trove. And if you weren’t just some douchey straight guy trying to take advantage of my insatiable sexual appetite, Leo. What? I’m not, not what? Engaged to Glen. I’m not straight.

Well damn. Then I’m having a really hard time solidifying a place here. I just lost one to Xander and Chloe, and I’m gonna have to fire my real estate agent because I’m always coming in late to these listings. I don’t like it. Oh, well I could refer you to our, she’s really good. I would actually very much appreciate that.

Doesn’t, uh, enjoy your place, um, and enjoy your new job. Uh, I don’t have his new job. How’d you hear about it? Alex told me and Chad, he, uh, he wasn’t too happy about it.

Yeah. You’re moving out. Why? I’m just not that comfortable here anymore, auntie. I haven’t been sleeping well. Well, you have one in the nicest rooms in the West Wing. You’re welcome to choose another. I mean, if it’s the mattress, I’m sure Henderson can find one more to you. Liking. No, no, no. It’s not the mattress or the room that’s making me feel uncomfortable.

It’s you.

What do you mean? Megan escaped? Well, ej, why wouldn’t I be worried that satis had us tied up in the secret room for weeks? You know, I, I wouldn’t be surprised if she just takes us all out one by one. Oh my God. Okay. Okay. No, I, I appreciate the heads up. All right. You just watch your back.

Oh,

Megan, don’t you come near me. I’m warning you. I armed. I’m not Auntie Megan.

Honey, whoop. Oh my God. Oh, sweetheart.

We’re gonna need a lot of furniture, huh? Couch. Coffee table beds, dining table. It’s a lot of shopping. Oh. Oh, perfect. Our realtor’s coming over with keys and some paperwork we need to sign. She’s gonna be here in an hour. Okay, that gives me time to, uh, run over to Maggie’s and let her know my decision.

Good luck.

I’ll be back soon,

Shirley. Surely you can understand that I just don’t wanna live in the same house with the woman who fired me. You are the one. Who signed with Titan’s biggest competitor. You stole a client, a huge client away from me, auntie Mag. That is just not what happened. Mm, nope. I’m sorry. I get it. That is how you see the deal that I made with Yuri.

That’s not how I see it. That’s what you did. Well then we’re just gonna have to agree to disagree on that. But I’m sure there’s one thing that we can both agree on and that this living situation isn’t healthy for either of us. Did you at least say goodbye to your Uncle Victor? No. He was taking a nap. I didn’t wanna wake him.

I’ll see you around Auntie Alex. Hi. Whatever has happened between us, it doesn’t change the fact that we’re, we’re still family and we always will be. Yeah. Family.

So, uh, where are you gonna live? I will let you know when I find a place. I’ll see you around.

Hey. Hi. Got a button? This one. Oh, uh, I was running late this morning. Yeah, how are you? Ah, um, okay. I don’t say I’m a little frustrated. I’ve been trying to find a, find a place to live for Rachel and me. I just lost another one to Stephanie and Chad and I don’t know, I was hoping to find a place before Rachel came back from camp.

Well, I’m sorry, this is her camp. She probably wants more credit on her camp account or something. Hello? Yeah. What do you mean missing? When what? Well, where the hell could she have gone?

Oh my baby girl. I have missed you so much. Oh, mom, stop, honey. Sue, I, I’m just so happy to see you. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a minute. What? What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be at camp. What do you care? You never even came to see me before I left. You never even said goodbye, honey. You know what that is?

Because mean old auntie Megan had me locked up in the basement. Wait for real? Yes, sweetheart. For real. Oh sweetie. There’s nothing else that could possibly have kept me from seeing you off. Oh God. Oh honey, I am so happy that you came to see me, but um, I’m gonna have to take you back to camp. No. No way

you, you’re seriously going to look me in the eye and tell me that you are queer with a straight face, a very straight face. That is what I’m telling you. Okay, so we have very quickly moved on from you thinking I have absolutely no scruples to you thinking I’m just playing stupid. Oh no. I don’t think you’re stupid Leo, but you want me to believe that you’re gay?

I am. But you’re sleeping with Gwen. You proposed to her? Yes. Only to get access to the money in the bomb. Was she cosol? And since, as we have established you are anything but stupid, you have known all along that I’ve had an ulterior motive. And now you know what that is.

We’re listen. I overheard Dimitri Van Loser bragging about proposing to you and I, I suppose I can even see why you might be attracted to him, even though we both know that blokes from Northwest and Europe are more your time. Oh, that is ridiculous. But even if he is an amusing distraction for you, Gwen, that insufferable man’s so full of himself, how can, how can he possibly have room in his heart left for you?

I mean, why would you even consider marrying such a narcissistic, pompous jerk? Excuse me. But Dimitri is none of those things. He’s actually very caring, generous, and loyal, wonderful person who happens to be head over heels in love with me as I am with him. And I’m not contemplating marrying him. I’ve said yes to Dimitri.

I am marrying him. And you know what? I cannot wait to be his wife there.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. It’s not the marrying Gwen, so you can get your grubby hands all over your family’s money thing. It’s the gay thing. I have excellent gay and from you. I haven’t gotten a single ping. I had a lifetime at practice not giving up pings. But it’s not just that you’re stripping. Gwen, you also had that flinging with Billy Reed.

I was playing Agent Reed as well to get my hands on the Almanian peacock. Yeah. Now you’re playing me to get up my. Subterranean peacock. No, it’s not like that. Then what is it like? And keep in mind I am neither stupid nor gullible, nor naive, nor a pushover, though the last one may be a little, which I hate, but I’m working on it.

Right? Well, that’s good for you. Look, um, I am imploring you to reveal neither my intentions nor my sexual orientation to anyone, and I’m willing to give myself to you as a means to that end. But you should also know that I don’t consider it any kind of sacrifice as I am very much looking forward to it, giving myself to you.

That is, well, strike me pink. Are you trying to tell me that you’re attracted to me? For someone who asks. We have established is not at all stupid. That sure took you a minute, Leo? Yes. Yes I am.

Gwen, are you sure this is a good idea? You just met this guy. You know the horrific things he’s done.

Okay. Sure. Yeah, I know he hasn’t led an exemplary life, but you know what he says that I bring out the best in him,

and you will know how I like bad boys. I’m no angel myself. Am I

what? What are you thinking? Just say it. I just can’t help but wonder if maybe this has less to do with you being in love with Dimitri and more to do with me getting together with Chloe. Oh God, look, there it is again. Usual, massive ego. No, no, it’s not. It’s not about that. And you know what? Even if it was so what?

You’ve moved on from me, haven’t you? I would very much like to move on from you, so I would actually say this is a very positive step in the right direction. Wouldn’t you share with us, Dimitri? Can you just stop please? Why can’t you just be happy for me? Zander. Jake cheated on me. Chad was in love with Abigail and you, you never really got over.

Sarah, did you? And now for the first time in my life, there is a man who wants to be with me and only me.

I wanna be with you, Leo Stark. Since when? Since the first time I laid eyes on you in Arizona. Oh, please. The way I remember it, you were totally into Billy Reed and totally annoyed by me all the time. And then I stole your emerald and you wanted to kill me. I never wanted to kill you. If anything, any antagonism that you felt for me was just my attempt to hide my desire for you.

But the truth of the matter is, Leo, I have always found you attractive. I think you are so interesting. You’re smart and witty. That definitely smile and that expressive eyes and that sassy little walk of yours. My walk. Mm-hmm. No one’s ever commented on my walk before or thought my eyes were expressive or thought that I was witty.

Funny, yes, but never witty, which is just a smarter version of funny, right. Well, you are all of the above and everything I just said that I liked about you, just the tip of the iceberg. But besides all that, and perhaps most importantly, Leo, I think you are so hot now. I understand that you don’t wanna betray your best friend, but really is it any better than betraying your own desires?

This hate between us, it is undeniable. This pole, it’s a gravity that neither of us can fight for much longer. I know I certainly can’t.

Okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Okay. I will give myself to you, but you have to promise me one thing. Anything. You’ll be gentle. Oh, I’ll good. Because I won’t

Yeah, well, you, you do that. Okay. Thank you very much. God, wait, so Rachel’s missing. Yeah. She left camp. Yeah. Yeah. And unlike those incompetent counselors I have. Pretty good idea of where she went to see Kristen. Yeah. Odd are She’s with her mother right now. Mama Kim is so stupid. I wanna stay here with you.

Oh, honey, honey, honey, I wish you could, but there’s a lot going on with this family right now and it’s very, very complicated. And besides, you know that your daddy has full custody of you and he’s the one who gets to make the decisions. In fact, I need to call him right now. I thought we were fighting that he’s having custody.

I’m trying. It’s been very, very hard, Rachel. I need a lawyer to help me and. No one wants to take my case. There has to be somewhere that we can be together. Mama isn’t there, please.

Ah, Chad, what can I do for you? Well, um, I came to give you my decision. Oh, well. Oh, I hope you decided to come to work for me at Titan. I think we could do great things together.

I think so too.

Living room. Ivory white paper. White. White. Dove. Too many choices.

Hey Alex, what are you doing here? Well, I was hoping to move in.

It’s true. What is, you do have a magic penis. No, no. I, I thought I’d seen it all when you made it levitate with that thing you did at the end.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. No, no. Uh, this can’t go on. Not like this. Gwen is my best friend. So what are you saying? You mean we can’t see each other again? Oh, hell no. That is definitely not what I’m saying. But you cannot marry her. You have to walk back that proposal. And yes, she will be hurt, but she would be way more hurt being the wife of a gay man and I can walk her through that misery and help her.

And how are you going to help her when you’re involved with the man that’s just turned his back on her? Well, maybe we can leave that part out. My involvement with you, it doesn’t matter anyway, because she’s already said yes to my proposal. What. When, just earlier today we’re at Mother’s Bedside in the hospital and she hadn’t said yes yet, but then we had this strong connection, this, this bonding of sorts and so and so.

She said, yes. Damn Leo. I genuinely like Gwen, but it’s you that I want badly. So if we could, you know, have more times like this, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, what are you suggesting that you marry Gwen and keep me as some sort of side piece? That is not happening. D v L? No way. No. How do you know what’s at stake here?

I will lose a staggering amount of money if I’m not married by the time I turn 40 and I turn 40 at the end of the month. Oh, right. Damn well, I would hate to see you lose all that money, but this situation we find ourselves and it does beg a major question. Mm-hmm. What’s that? Okay, so the Cota Soul says that you have to tie the knot before you turn the big 4.0 to inherit the V millions.

Mm-hmm. But does it say anything specifically? About tying knot with someone of the female persuasion.

Why Leo Starr? Are you asking me to marry him? I can’t be sure if it Dimitri guy is being straight with you. You know he’s a conman. I don’t want to hear it. Yeah, I just don’t think it’s in your interest such proposal right now. Your blood. Yeah, I just, I just want you to be happy, but. Especially after, you know how I hurt you

each other.

I know that I’m taking a chance here, but. I’m neither naive nor stupid, Sandra. I know that. I know. You can hand yourself up. I’ll shut up now. Well, that’s a relief. Just be careful with that guy. Yeah.

I appreciate your concern.

You know what I don’t appreciate though, is you fornicating all over the bloody office. So if you don’t mind, perhaps some sanitizing that desk over there and anywhere else where your bums may have rubbed against. Yes, ma’am.

Oh, we’ll work out all the details of your contract. Yeah. Um, should we be pleased with the terms? I’m, I’m, I’m sure I will be. Oh no. Oh, I’m so happy about this. Yes, I’m too, today has been, uh, uh, a day. I, uh, I have a new job. Stephanie and I, we found an apartment together. Oh, that’s wonderful. What great news.

Yeah. Um, yeah. Just one thing though, about what, um, Yeah, and it’s really none of my business, but I was just wondering if, um, if, if it’ll be at all uncomfortable for you and Victor with Alex living here, but working for Demaro. Well, you know, you don’t have to worry about that anymore. Alex just moved out.

Things just started to get really awkward, so I figured it was time to move out. Plus, I’m ready for my own place anyway. Makes sense. Yeah. But apparently Salem is a hot rental market. Brady was just here looking at this apartment too. But um, Chad and I had already decided to take it. Oh, well then I should say congratulations.

Thank you.

And speaking of awkward, I should probably tell you before you hear it from anyone else. Chad decided to take your old job at Titan. Ah, well good for him. Yeah, he’s excited about it.

I just, I hope this doesn’t set us back, you and me. I mean, why would it? Too bad. You and I have gotten to a really good place, even after everything we’ve. Been through and now with Chad at Titan and you at Demara. Not to mention the fact that he and I will be living together. I just, I don’t want things to change that I’d really want, I’d really like for us to be friends.

I’d really like that too, but for now, I’m gonna go find myself a place to live. See you soon.

No, I’d find you here. Where else would I be? Hm? What’s wrong, Brady? You know damn well. What’s wrong, Chris? Where’s our daughter?

Hey. Hey. Is Maggie thrilled that you accepted her options? She was thrilled. So was I. Me too. Congratulations. Yeah, it’s been a good day. Did um, did the realtor come by with the papers yet? Not yet. Perfect timing, but that’s her. Hey there kids. I have here the keys to your new place as well as the lease for you to sign.

How did you get, what are you talking about? Well, I got ’em from the realtor. She asked if I could drop ’em off on my way home. Yeah, but you don’t live anywhere near here? I do now. I got a place in the building directly across the hall from you guys. Hm.

Hey you. So how did it go with Gwen? That’s something you might expect. She was in an unusually good mood.

Are you okay Chloe? Yeah, I, I’m sorry. I’m just a little bit worried. Um, I ran into Brady when I went to get coffee and he said that Rachel went missing from her camp. She’s missing, that’s terrible. What’s going? Yeah. But he has a pretty good idea as to where she went.

Missing, but what are you talking about? Do they think she ran away? Are they looking for her? Oh, you, you didn’t, you didn’t know. Of course. I didn’t know. I mean, how would I, I mean, you’d never put me on their contact list. What the hell are you kidding? Kristen? Let’s, let’s just not do these mind games.

Let’s not do ’em right now. Okay. Do one who set her up at this camp? Mr. I have full custody, Kristen. Just tell the truth for once. This is for a change. Are you hiding her here or not? I swear to you, if Rachel were here, I would tell you

voicemail. Damn.

Hi, Matty, it’s me. I was really hoping you’d pick up. Um, I wanted to share with you the news in person, um, but I just couldn’t wait to share this wonderful news with my most trusted and loyal friend. Ready?

I said yes to Dimitri and call me crazy. But, um, for the first time in my life, I think I might actually have a chance of real happiness.

What if I was asking you to marry me? You are not gonna gimme grief, are you? For not getting down on bended knee, which would be redundant given what I just did. Uh, no. No. This has nothing to do with the informality of your proposal and everything to do with my old world family and its old world values.

I wish that they were open-minded enough to accept the marriage between any consenting adults, but alas, that is not the case. Now. The codicil is perfectly clear. I must be married to a woman. Oh, I guess I missed that part. Mm-hmm.

The thing is, Gwen really likes you. I think maybe she even loves you. Yes. But I promise you I will take care of Gwen in my own way. But you have to promise me that no one will know about this, especially her. It’ll.

What are you thinking?

Just that I have thrown myself at more men than a groupie at a month long music festival, and they always turn out to be either too straight, too nice. Well, now you know I’m neither there.

Promise me this isn’t just some kind of trick I swear in my family name. For whatever that’s worth. I swear that this is not a trick. Now you have to swear to me, Leo, that no one will know about us by what just happened, but I hope happens again, again and again. I swear on my honor. It’ll be our little secret.

Like Sam through the hour class, so are lives,

oh, come on, Kristin, the police. There is no crime being committed here. I’m just a normal everyday guy. Who’s studying for his sommelier exam in October. Okay. You know, just stop the adorable little yarn before you even put a spin on it. What were you doing forcing your way into that drawer? I. Okay. I’m not studying to be a someone, but it is on my bucket list and I am something of a wine connoisseur.

Mm-hmm. And also a jewelry connoisseur as well. Yeah. I believe it was a little over a year ago when you broke in here and stole my sister-in-law, Abigail’s precious gems. And that was also the night she just happened to be murdered, which I had nothing to do with. And believe me, I have paid the consequences of my ill timed revenge kick witch along with smoking and snorting baby powder.

I’m totally off of now, I swear. So what pretail are you on now? I’m not on anything. I am merely in search of the truth, an honorable and noble pursuit. No. And what truth are you in pursuit of Mr. Stock? I’m trying to get the goods on D V L.

So you mean it, you’ll really marry me. Yes. Yes. I mean, how many languages would you like me to say? Hate in Portuguese or Cantonese, perhaps. No, no, no. English is fine. I’m just, I’m, I’m surprised, delighted, don’t get me wrong, but surprised. Yes. Well, I, I know I, I was hesitant at the beginning, but um,

I changed my mind, obviously when your mother was shot, so you said yes. Because of my mother,

come sit with me. Mm-hmm.

It was partly because of what your mother said when we went to go and visit her in the hospital. What she said about seizing opportunities with courage and not letting life pass you by.

But really it was you. I could see how much you love her and how scared you were to lose her,

and

it was more to it than that. I just suppose I saw another side to you, Dimitri’s side, that’s tender and. Vulnerable. One that doesn’t really get a lot of air time, if you will.

And I looked at you and I realized that you are. You are not just some criminal mastermind in more than that. You are not just some man who imprisoned Kate on that fishing boat. Or tried to blow up the whole bloody world with an almanian peacock.

You’re human. Dimitri,

a beautiful human at that.

What am I doing here? What? What do you think I’m doing here? Does it look like it’s by choice? Well, I mean, I wouldn’t think you and Stephan would choose Megan wrong for your kinky sex rom. Not funny. And where the hell is Megan? Well, that’s the burning question, unfortunately. See, I came here to see that.

Sick bitch was the one behind Harris’ attempt on Stephan’s life because Lee kept on insisting that she was the mastermind behind it all. So I figured the only way to know the truth is to come here and confront her face to face.

Hi. Hi.

I just thought I’d come down and pay my respects as well.

It’s just so senseless, unfair that he’s gone so soon.

How are you? Oh, well, with the baby, I hope. Yeah, I, uh, I had a follow up appointment with the doctor and she said that everything seems fine. That’s great. I’m sure HJ thinks so too.

Actually he wasn’t there.

Gabby, you were right about me. My just hypnotized me. Long story short, a memory surface of my sister admitting that she was gonna have Stephan killed. Oh my God. That’s psychopath. Mm. I came here to choke the truth out of her. Oh, I came up here to do the same. And it appears she turned the tables on you, but considering she’s recovering from a gunshot wound, how the hell does she manage that?

It’s like you said, it’s 90 something degrees out. I mean, I can’t help it if I’m thirsty Bell. It’s just, it’s a beer. That’s it. John, you’re working and I’m on my lunch break. All right. I’m not drunk.

What? What? Go ahead. Go ahead and tell me what you’re thinking. You know what I’m thinking, what That I, that I have a drinking problem. But then I need to go to aa. Maybe I need to get a sponsor. I need to make amends to the, to the kid whose m and ms I stole in the second grade. Is that just to get him close there?

Huh? Okay. You know, Shawn, I have tried to give you space because I know that you’re in pain. I know that you’re, you’re suffering terribly about what happened with your dad, and I get it. I get that you feel a lot of guilt and regret, and you’re trying to numb that with alcohol. But I am not gonna enable this anymore.

This has to stop. D V L. What the hell is that? Uh, your nephew, Dimitri von Leischner. Does that ring a bell? Well, why the hell would you wanna get the goods on him? Oh my God. Are you hing a schoolboy crush? Perhaps? No. I’m not harboring anything but suspicion and a desire to make sure that my friend Gwen, whom he’s weirdly determined to marry, does not get hurt.

Well, that is a hell of a way to get yourself uninvited from the wedding. Mr. Breaking and entering. Well, maybe you could get a job on the catering staff. Hmm. Well, since I was summarily dismissed from my last catering job, after the hostess caught me eating artichoke cini and her heart-shaped jacuzzi, highly unlikely.

Let’s just get back to the topic at hand, shall we? It is rather presumptuous of you to think that my nephew ISN insincere in his marriage proposal. Oh, please. I have seen videos of kittens riding on robot vacuums that have gone on longer than those two know each other. Don’t you remember any of this? I told you about it when I found you and EJ in the secret room and you said it sounded vaguely familiar.

Are you telling me you have no idea why Dimitri is so eager to get Gwen to say I do? Even if that means deceiving a woman who is apparently a good friend of yours. Are you sure you don’t have a problem with me using Gwen to get what I want?

Oh, Gwen, you just make me so happy whenever I’m with you. I, I always feel like the man that I always was meant to be. You’re the only one that can bring who’s ever brought that out in me, and I promise you. You will not regret this. I bloody hope not. At least not before I publish the engagement announcement in this spectator.

Well, speaking of shall we make it official?

Oh boy.

So beautiful, Dimitri. It’s beautiful.

My beautiful ring for my beautiful bride to be.

Hey, Jay, didn’t go to your appointment with you. Well, he and Kristen went to see your mother to see if she could help them, remember why Megan pulled them into that secret room. But don’t you think EJ could have waited till after you’ve gone to your doctor’s appointment? I mean, considering the scare you had the other day?

He wanted to go to my appointment, but I told him it was more important that he recovered his memory, if that’s even possible, to make his lunatic sister pay for what she’s done. So this never happens again. I’m sorry. Completely none of my business. I was just concerned about you after the scare you had.

Thank you, Eric. But EJ is also concerned about his unborn child and he loves this baby and he loves me

and I love him.

Well, I showed up here and there she was, Megan Demara lying in this bed, helpless, like a little turtle on its back. I had her right where I wanted. She was about to tell me the truth that she si Harris on Stephan. And then somebody grabbed me from behind. Who? Dr. Rolfe. Rolfe. He was the one who did this to you?

Yeah. He surprised me, but I could have taken that bastard easy. So he struggled a little bit and then he managed to get the better of me. So you are saying this isn’t one of those, you should see the other guy type of thing? Unfortunately not. Okay. But wait, what prompted Dr. Rolfe to come back? Apparently he was keeping tabs on EJ and Kristen and when he found out that they had recovered their memories, he showed up here to whisk Megan away to safety.

Bitch didn’t even leave me or applesauce. Do you have any idea where they went? No, I don’t know, but Rolfe mentioned something about a submarine.

I shouldn’t question AJ’s devotion to you or the baby. It’s just. You need your reaction after all those weeks that he left you alone.

I understand. And I, I’m sorry too. I I didn’t mean to jump down your throat. No, you don’t have to be,

can’t imagine the pain you’re going through right now after everything that’s happened with the baby and no. It’s just, it’s just so heartbreaking.

I know this has gotta be painful for you too.

Thank you.

It’s just, I still can’t believe he’s gone. I. And it’s so unfair. He was such a good man, and the only reason this happened was because he was looking out for Paulina and Chanel. I mean, he looked out for everybody that he loved and he always looked out for me, that’s for sure. Like your father. And now I just.

I know. I’ll miss him. I’ll miss him.

Well, EJ shot outta here like a rocket. As much as I wanted to catch Megan. I’m sure she’s at the bottom of the C bite now. No, I used to, I used to date a submariner. I remember him talking about one of the cooks made it to die for her lobster. This, oh, fascinating. You know what, instead of blathering on about C, why don’t you help me outta these cuffs?

Oh, oh, oh, of course. That’s right. Oh, wait a minute. I forgot my trustee. Hacksaw. Yeah. Wasn’t thinking so. Call the cops. Cops. Yeah. Who else? I mean some. I’m sure somebody in the department will take an interest in freeing the commissioner’s sister.

Uh huh. What is that number? You know the number. And as soon as you’re done, why don’t you tell me why you’re even here. Got a dog in this fight, Kate.

You know, I’m fine. Fine. You’re the boss, Sean. You know what? Actually, why don’t I skip lunch too? Hmm. I mean, who needs to eat anyway? Right? And you know what? While I’m at it, why don’t I just go turn in my badge and join a monastery like son, stop. What are you doing? I lost my appetite, bill. And you know what?

And since you’re so tired of finding empty bottles, There you go. I left you a full one.

What was that all about?

You’re remembering something, aren’t you? That is the face of someone remembering something.

In any case, when I do convince Gwen to marry me, it’ll be for richer and not for poorer. You, uh, may be onto something about Dimitri having an underlying agenda. Oh my God, Kristen Deira. If you remember your Prodigal nephew’s real reason for wanting to marry Gwen, then in the name of all that is holy spill the tea.

Please look, like I said before, this is not about me. This is about my best friend she deserves to know, and, and you care about Gwen, right? The two of you were cellmates at Statesville. And I’ve seen the Shawshank Redemption twice. Well, it caught bits and pieces enough to know that the two of you must have had a special bond.

We were cellmates for all of 24 hours. Not sure how much special bonding we achieved. Yeah, Kristen, look, if you know that Dimitri is going to break Gwen’s heart into a million little pieces, You owe it to her to tell me,

I hate to do this, but what? I should go right now. I need to tell my mother. I need to tell her the the wonderful news. Wait, can’t we just. Mm. I don’t know. Can’t we just like track down a, a carrier pigeon or something to give her the message? God. Okay. Right. Yes. Fine. That’s your mother. Something wrong. No, it, it’s just, I don’t know.

I just. Ah, I just thought maybe just, maybe we could, um,

So he’s hitting a bottle hard, huh? Yeah. He’s still struggling with what happened with Beau. Damn. I was hoping he, he’s up on himself on there. Yeah. Well, he’s not, I keep telling him there’s nothing he could have done differently, know that he was just forced to make a terrible choice. I told him that. Told him the same damn thing, but doesn’t say more than I hear.

Yeah, but that’s the thing is he knows nobody blames him. He just can’t stop blaming himself. Okay. The police are on their way. Yeah. I guess we’ll just listen to the sirens. Hmm. Hopefully they get here before I start to chafe. Oh, do you want me to call them? Tell them to stop for some hour along the way?

No, actually, I’d like for you to answer the question that I asked earlier. That’s so funny. I don’t remember a question. Anyway, I have to get going. So stop right there. Okay. See, I know you, I know you very well and I know when you’re hiding something, and I’m guessing it has to do with Megan, and if that’s true, it’s very important that I know.

So tell me. How are you involved with her?

Oh, each, uh,

I was just leaving flowers for Aen. I pumped into Eric. Uh, It looks like a very moving tribute. He was obviously loved by many. But what, what are you doing here? Did you get a chance to see Marlena? I did. Yes. Yes, I did. Uh, your mother’s hypnosis proved quite effective memories of what occurred, and that secret room came flooding back.

And once they did, I took it upon myself to confront Megan Mano, or Mano only to find and much to my displeasure that she’s absconded from the hospital. What, how it appears Wilhelm Rolfe provided a helping hand. Do you have any idea where they could have gone well here? Oh, so I thought apparently Elvis had the same idea that I had because when I arrived at the hospital, I found Gabby Hernandez trust up in Megan’s handcuffs, courtesy of.

Dr. Rolfe, but Gabby did say before Megan was spirited away, that Rolfe mentioned something about a, a submarine, which is why I came down to the docks. But if my sister was here, um, it appears she’s long gone.

How am I involved with Megan? Oh, let’s see. That’s right. She’s the one who tried to have me killed. So you came by to what? Finish her off. No, that sleeping with the fishes isn’t exactly what the monster deserves.

So tell me, which one of you idiots let Megan Hathaway escape

you? You’re right When, and I did bond when we were at Statesville. I taught her everything she needs to know about Texas. Hold. Great. Great. So then you’ll help her. I already have, as I informed my nephew when I got the pardon from the governor, I got one for Gwen as well. So if anything Miss Riz check.

Well, she’s in debt to me. Uh ooh. If we’re talking about debts, then you, Sirina, Deira are in Deto. Tomio. Am I. And how’s that? Well, if I hadn’t been Johnny on the spot and shown up when I did, you and EJ would still be tied up in the secret room. Well then I’ll just make sure to send you one of those edible arrangements.

So that’s it. You de mirrors just close ranks and screw everybody else. We de mirrors protect what’s ours speaking of, are you gonna shove off? What do I actually have to call the police?

Fine, I’ll go. But word of warning. This is not the last you have seen of Mr. Leo Stark. A K a Maddie Cooper. But do not ever call me that. Only when he gets to.

You know, it might not be the, um, most appropriate time to bring up. Mothers. But, um, I think yours would be quite pleased to know what kept her waiting, but perhaps just, um, leave out the specifics of why we were delayed. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Definitely not. No, I would say we just keep it to, we got held up celebrating.

I know how it’s possible, but somehow you are more enchanting every single time. I,

I can’t wait to,

and why should we wait? We can go to the courthouse right now. We could be legally married by this afternoon. Before they even throw out the first pitch, the Cubs came.

Are you serious? You get married today? Yeah. With the heading of strike while the iron’s hot. Mm. I’m not really sure that that applies to its marriage. Um, and I, I’ll admit, I what

I. Hoping for something just a wee bit more romantic, huh? Well, what could be more romantic than the two of us proclaiming our undying love for each other? Just you and me.

Just you? Me? Mm-hmm. And the county clerk. I mean, it’s not exactly eloping to some nice tropical island. Is it saying our vows under the cover of darkness? I think it’d be nice to have a swaying palm tree close by, perhaps some dolphins doing some sorts in the background. So you want to get married in the screensaver.

Are you suggesting that I’m shallow? Mr. Vaughn Ner? Never. No. I was just teasing because that’s the last thing you are, that’s kind of you.

Honestly, I don’t, I don’t even know what I want, which is why I was hoping for the time to figure it out before we say I do. Really? What’s the hurry darling?

Damn, some young entrepreneurs should, uh, disrupt the handcuff industry. Find something a little smoother on the wrist. Okay, so lemme get this straight here. So, okay, so, so Megan escaped in a submarine. Yeah. I mean, I, I don’t know, obviously, but the Rolf mentioned he had one. Yeah. Well, did he mention, was it yellow?

Was Ringo star waiting to board? Uh, how long ago did they leave? I don’t know, an hour, give or take. Okay, good, good. Maybe there’s a chance I can still catch up with him.

Okay. So if he thinks he’s going to catch up with Megan and Rolf, he’s the one that’s an idiot. Well, the police are on their way and not that it will do much good. I assume Megan is halfway to Bermuda by now. Okay. Listen, I know it’s gonna take time. But justice will catch up to her eventually. One can help.

So, um, how did it go with the doctor? Well, she said the same thing that Tripp said in the er, that the baby is perfectly healthy. Thank God that is, that is brilliant news. Mm-hmm. Oh, that reminds me, I, uh, made arrangements with that, uh, specialist, the perinatologist. I’m flying her back in. I think she’d rather appreciated the first class ticket.

Oh, ej. But I, I told you the baby’s fine. So there’s no needs. I have every faith in your physician. I just, I just wanted to bring Dr. Laurenson back into the fold because I hated that I missed the first appointment with her. Especially since she gave you such excellent news about the baby and over the coming months.

I want to learn everything I can about what we need to do in preparation for bringing our baby into this world, and I want to do that as a couple together.

You’re absolutely right. Of course there’s no rush. It’s just that I’ve been waiting for someone like you my entire life, and I’m a little bit impatient, obviously.

Yes, I know the feeling. It’s just that, um, after one rather disastrous attempt. I’ve never been married before, and so I really, I really wanna make it something special.

I promise you, Glen, it will be. So how does the end of the month sound? It is enough time for you to gather a few girlfriends for a bridal shower in the next couple of weeks and have to make some phone calls, but if it all works out, I think I might have a fabulous destination in mind at the end of this month.

Oh, yeah, isn’t time for my birthday? My, uh, my 40th actually. Oh yes. Um, how’s that relevant? Well, now it’s gonna sound a bit silly, but, um, well, I made a promise to myself a while back that, that I would be married by the time I turned 40, and I hate breaking promises, especially to myself, but my 40, oh, um, well, it just feels like a significant milestone.

Uh, it’s a time where I should finally become the man. I’m meant to be a man who is mature and um, A man who was settled,

a man that you deserve, Gwen,

right then we shall celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday. Right after our very fabulous wedding.

Okay, Dimitri, you gorgeous little international fugitive. Surely you’ve left some breadcrumbs for lady whistleblower, something that will explain why you are so eager to get hitched

Dema. You sweet smelling. Son of a bitch.

Oh no, Leo, focus. You’re here for Gwen. Remember

nothing. Nothing. I feel like Geraldo and Al Capone’s Vault. Hi, Leo. You’re dating yourself.

Oh, I pray that the Salem PD steps up to the plate this time and finds that damn submarine. Well, considering all the havoc that Megan’s inflicted on everyone, I’m sure they’re highly motivated.

Listen, I, I just wanna say that. When you showed up on the docks and saw me hugging Eric, you, you don’t have to explain. Well, I, I feel like I, DOJ you were visiting Abe’s Memorial. It makes sense that you would see comfort in your friend, and that’s all it was. I, I’m really grateful that you understand.

Nicole, we love each other. We’re having a baby together. That’s all that matters to me, and I promise you this,

my priority from now on is you and me and a precious little baby.

Hey, you’re site for Surah. Wow. Hey, tough morning. Hey. Uh, yeah, it was kind of where you in? Uh, the hospital. Oh, the hospital? Yes. I wanted to go by and check up on Command Harris, make sure he doesn’t get into any anymore trouble, you know? You know what though? Macon escaped while I was there. What? Yeah. What did police say?

Well, yes, Shawn, Shawn showed up right when I was leaving. He’s on the case, you know, so hopefully they find her.

Hey mom, it’s me, Shawn. Uh, listen, um, I hate pulling you away from dad like this, but, uh, there’s something that you need to know, but Megan, she’s on the loose again. Look, I like, I hate scaring you like this, but I just need to make sure that you’re being extra careful. All right. The last thing I want is for you and dad to get hurt any worse than you already have been.

Yeah, of course, of course. I love you too. And, um, tell dad, tell dad that I love him and that I’m thinking about him. I’m thinking about him every second of every day and not that, not that he can hear you. Yeah, no. Of co Yeah, of course. I may. Yeah. You know what? Maybe he can, I, I, yeah, I hope so. Listen, so I, if anything changes, I will let you know as soon as possible.

Okay. All right, bye.

Hello? Hello, Kristen, I heard about your ordeal in the Dema Secret Room. Uh, well, nothing a, uh, bitter tasting cappuccino won’t fix. Well, I’m glad to see you are None the worst for wear. Mm. Well, my memory’s still a little fuzzy and, uh, few unsettling dreams, but, uh, other than that, no lasting damage, hopefully.

Oh, how are you? I’m engaged.

I’ve got you now. Z Yvonne Leischner.

Star, how are you doing in my room? What am I doing? I’m about to expose you for the malicious swindler You are? No, no, no. Dvl. The jig is up. You’re only marrying Gwen to get your hands on this money. That’s preposterous. Oh yeah. We’ll see about that. Where do you think you’re going to tell Gwen everything And there’s nothing you can do to stop me?

No, I think there is.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Two, one. How about you? In here, you’re giving the police a hard time refusing to answer any of their questions. I believe that’s my right. You think Stonewalling is gonna help you? You’re hired gun told a room full of people that you ordered him to kill Stephan. Sorry, Lee. Another epic fail. I can’t believe you did this.

Cooked up some scheme to murder the man that I love, so that I would be available again. You know, you might as well confess you pathetic freak because you and your homicidal henchmen are going down. So it’s true. I heard that you hear under observation. I guess I had to see it for myself. So what happened?

Asked the morons who brought me in. No, I know. I’m asking you because the last time we saw each other, you told me that you were going after Megan. You were gonna take her out of commission. And I thought it went according to plan because then I get a text from you saying mission accomplished. And then the next thing I find out, Megan is hosting a party at the bistro.

And you crashed that party in a big wave and, and you didn’t grab Megan. You tried to kill Stephan Damira because Lee Hin told you to. I mean, the whole thing makes zero sense. Makes perfect sense to me. Okay. Will, if that’s true, you’re in absolutely the right place because you need your head examined by an expert.

Hold on just a minute. I’m coming. Hold on.

Elena, listen, you listen to me. I assume you’re here to see Rachel. Well, she left for camp a week ago. And you never even said goodbye. I know, I know. I, I, I was held captive by my deranged sister, Megan. Yes. Isn’t she in the hospital? Kristen, I told you to wait until I popped. Everything she’s saying is true.

I was held prisoner too. I see. And why would Megan do such a thing? That’s an excellent question, and we need your help to answer it.

Matt, what are doing here? I came to see you. If there was any word on your, please don’t let her become your mother-in-law. No. Demetri’s in with Megan now. She still hasn’t regained consciousness since her surgery, but thank you for making this crisis all about whether or not I’ve accepted his proposal.

Have you accepted his proposal? The subject hasn’t come up. God, would you look around please? Cuz we’re in a bloody hospital here. It’s been two days since Megan was shot. Dimitri doesn’t even know if she’s going to live or die, so just have some respect. The man’s completely falling apart and my heart is breaking for him.

Gny, that is so sad. Yes. Thank you. Finally. No honey, you are sad. I cannot believe you’re falling for this poor little rich boy act.

Oh, thank God you’re awake.

Where am I? You’re in the hospital. You had emergency surgery two days ago. What? Why? What happened? Mother, you were shot, Sharon. Yes. At the engagement party, you don’t remember, do you? Harris Michael showed up. He was armed. He said that Le, in order to kill Stephan, right before he pulled the trigger, Gabby rushed him.

There was a struggle for the gun and, and I got hit. Yeah. Oh, what is this? Why am I handcuffed? If I’m the victim here? Why am I handcuffed?

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

You are insane. If you think I’d hire someone to murder Stephan, right, because you haven’t tried to off him before. How do you know Harris Michaels? I don’t. Well, he said he was acting on your orders. That makes no sense. It makes perfect sense, especially if you brainwashed him the way you did me. And he’s on a cycle hold because the cops think that someone namely you messed with his head.

So you say you don’t know Michael’s, but you do know Dr. Rolf very well. Oh, and messing with people’s heads is his specialty. So you could have gotten that nutcase to help you for the last time. I’m innocent if that’s true. Give us one good reason why Harris Michaels were barged into our party point a gun at Stephan and say that you get the order to kill him.

I don’t know why this is so hard for you to understand. I take my orders from Lee Shin, not you. He wanted Stephan Demara out of the way so he could have a clear path to Gabby Hernandez. Okay? Look, two days ago we had a conversation at the pub, right? You told me you had put a tracking device on Megan’s car, then you got an alert and you went off after her.

Right. But now, now you’re asking me to believe that Lee Shin crossed your path and, and redirected you to another target, because I, I’m not believing that. If it makes you feel any better, Megan Hathaway got hers anyway. Oh God. Okay. God, I know, I know. She took a stray bullet at the bistro, but the point is you still haven’t answered my case.

Yeah, I’m done. I’m done talking. So either you can get lost or go get somebody to cut me loose so I can finish my real mission.

Why am I shackled to the bed? Is this some kind of a sick joke? No. I hate to one tell you this. You’ve been arrested. Arrested. What for

you really? Dunno. Well, if I did, I wouldn’t be asking you. Dimitri, would you please tell me? Tell me what I have been accused of, of kidnapping After you were shot on, Kristen and Uncle EJ told the cops that you were holding them hostage in the basement of the mansion. Well, you must really be joking now. I wish I were.

That is not true, Dimitri.

That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard in my whole life. I’m unclear why you think I would help you with anything. We know that you would be reluctant, not just because of Kristen, but obviously I’m not your favorite person, but I’d need to, but, but we have. We have come to you with all due respect and humility because you are the only person who can provide the kind of help that we need.

Oh, what does that mean? Megan was arrested for kidnapping, Kristen and me. And unless we can tell the police exactly what happened and why they’re gonna let her go, well then why don’t you go to the police and tell them because we don’t remember. Mm. If you are trying to rope me into some demure family hygiene, no, no, no, no, no, no.

We’re not, we’re not. Megan injected us with a drug to raise our memories, and that’s where your expertise comes in. We need you to bring them back and, and frankly, after everything she’s done to you, I, I think you’d leave at the chance to put her away. Even if that means helping me,

what’s this? You are working for Father Christmas. Now. Why do you have a pillow case? It’s a change of clothes, which obviously you don’t need since you’ve already changed. Thank you. That was very thoughtful here in case you need to change again. I mean, you do seem to be living here now, Marty. I am not living here.

I am going to go home and I’m going to sleep. And so even though that was very thoughtful of you, I’m not gonna be needing a change of clothes. Not now. Fine. I’ll take it back.

Could you stop looking at me? So Disapprovingly, I am merely supporting Dimitri whose, whose mother, as I’m sure you know, may not pull through. He’s having a very rough time, obviously. Well, it’s not him. I feel sorry for right now. What’s that supposed to mean? It means to hell with his rough time. I’m worried about you, Gwenie.

Oh my God. Here we go again. Yes. Here we go again. And it will be again and again and again until you see the light. Oh, mm yes. Well, according to you, the light actually is very much the opposite, meaning very cynical and mistrusting. So therefore seeing the dark side of the moon, because in this case there is a dark side to the damn moon.

And my bff, former fellow cynic, pessimist, and misanthrope has suddenly gone all Pollyanna and Schal tearing over a dangerous predator. I can’t listen to this anymore. Corny. Corny. I’m only saying this because I love you. You know I do. And the count of Monty Lango does not. You need to wake up. You have fallen victim to a man who’s upsettingly handsome face and impossibly toned physique has caused you to throw logic out the window so he can suck you in.

Now, normally I am all for sucking, but not in this case, not under these circumstances, not when that conman is trying to lure you further into his web with his crocodile tears of his bullet ridden Mummy, you know what? You couldn’t be more wrong about Dimitri, that man. Is in so much pain. Oh, he hasn’t eaten.

Oh, he hasn’t slept. His pain is very real. Oh really? And that means his feelings for you are real. I know. They are. And whether you like it or not, that man is absolutely beside himself with worry over Megan. Of course he is. He needs that crazy bitch to survive so she can help him with whatever he has planned for you.

So you’re saying that there is absolutely nothing to Aunt Kristen and uncle e J’s claims. Of course not. Whatever they told the police, it’s a complete fabrication. Is it? Because the two of them disappeared rather suddenly. A few weeks ago, they didn’t disappear. Kristen went to New York to find a custody lawyer and Egypt probably just wanted to escape that insufferable girlfriend of his.

And yet they’re claiming that you had them tied up in the wine cellar. Now why, why would they lie about that mother? Because that’s what they do. Why? Who they you mean? Because, because they’re des, because they’re not true Des, like you and I, they’re pnu interlopers and they will do anything, say anything that they can to blacken my name, to drag me down.

What are you thinking? Say it, their story. It just, it makes me think of a couple of things. What things? Well, for one, the night of the party, I saw you heading into the tunnels to get a bottle of champagne, as I recall. Surely that’s not a crime now. No. No, of course not. But then there’s the other time that I came in and found you standing in front of the secret panel and you were holding a tray and it looked to have enough food to feed two people.

And yet there you were all by yourself. Dimitri, do you have any idea how much this hurts me that my own son. Can think that I would do anything so malevolent that I would be so cruel to my own siblings. To what? End

again? Silence. That’s just it. I don’t know. To what end? Oh, I have no theory as to why you would do this.

Because there is none. It defies all logic. So what do EJ and Kristen say that my motives were for kidnapping them and tying them up? They don’t know. Or rather they don’t know anymore because they’re claiming that you injected them with something to make them forget. Demetri, I’m getting the distinct impression that you believe them.

Look at me.

If you turn against me, Demetri, it will break my heart. Is that what you want to do? Of course not. And you.

Where your loyalties lie.

Say it right now. Tell me that you believe me. That you trust me. Tell me. That you will never betray me.

So Megan wiped out your memories for the most part. We do know that she had us locked up in the tunnels and that she drugged us. She may be our sister, but I can say without hesitation that she needs to be behind bars. Remember how badly John suffered when he thought that you had died? Well, Megan can inflict that pain all over again on your friends, on your family, on everyone in Salem, for all we know.

But the problem is we don’t know. We don’t remember. We have no idea what Megan’s plans are or more important who is in a crosshairs. And for the question, Lee, Why would Harris say you ordered him to kill Stephan? If that’s not true,

I just wanna make certain none of this will be traced back to us. Stop worried. Lee, commander Michaels is firmly back on my team, so he’ll take Stephan out at the party tonight and then you’ll be free to move on with Gabby and we’ll both get what we want. You two are so quick to blame me. You’re completely overlooking the person who’s actually guilty.

And who was that? Megan Hathaway. Oh, come on it. It couldn’t be more obvious. She used Ralph to brainwash Michael’s once, and now she’s done it again.

Megan, Megan would make sense if she somehow, somehow flipped the tables on you. I mean, I don’t know why she would wanna kill her brother. I don’t have any idea about that. But somehow I think she is up to her eyeballs on all of this. You’re wrong. Just go away.

No, I’m gonna do better than that. I’m gonna help you. Okay? I, I know you want my help. And, um, I’m gonna help you get back to your right mind. There’s nothing wrong with my mind, and yet here you are shackled to this bed after attempting an assassination. Paris. Okay? This isn’t you. This isn’t, you says stop.

Okay. No, listen to me. I know. I know. That the last time you were de programmed, it wasn’t a pleasant thing. Okay, so we don’t have to call in isa. Marlena can do this. She can do it here. She helps. No. Oh, I Let me call. No, look, you came to Salem to stop Megan Hathaway from ever hurting anyone ever again. But what she’s done is hurt you.

She has stripped you of your humanity so that she could use you to do her dirty work. You can’t let her do that. You can’t let her do that Again, you have to, you have to find. Your real self, your true self. Harris is your good man. Your decent man.

You are a hero. You saved my life. Okay? I wanna help you. I wanna help you, but I can only help you. If you give me your consent, will you do that?

Why would I consent to letting a shrink mess with my head? I answered, Alicia, I don’t need to be programmed to do what he wants. Of course you do. Anyone who can suddenly be okay with committing murder, that means that you were turned by someone who only thinks of you as a tool. And to me, that screams Megan Hathaway.

Are you finished?

You can’t let her do this to you again. I know that you want my help. I just really hope to God that you accept it because if you don’t, you will forever be a pawn for making sick.

Why would Megan want stuff? And Dad, he’s her brother. He’s also co c e o of Demara. So what, so you have what she wants, what All demaris want more power, money control. A bigger piece of the proverbial pie. And if Stephan were to meet his untimely demise, no, no, no, no. She may want the company, but she’s not gonna take out a family member to get it.

But you, Lee would absolutely take me out for another chance with Gabby. Hmm. So that’s it. There’s only one possible explanation that I did this because I can’t let go of my ex even after I didn’t fight you on the divorce. And I’ve told you repeatedly, I just want you to be happy. I decided to do a total 180 and risk my freedom, my future, everything to murder.

Stephan, a man you never stopped loving even after he was dead. So that way I could be with you again, knowing full well your heart would always belong to him. Yep, you got me. That’s it. That’s how I wanna spend the rest of my life. Good luck, man. I really hope there’s room in that bed of yours for the three of you, you, Gabby, and her ego.

Of course, I’m on your side. I would, I would never betray you. I’d never turn my back on you. I’m so sorry that I ever made you feel otherwise.

You are the most important person in my life to be true. You are my life.

And that’s why I know I can be a forbearing at times.

Okay. I suppose I can be downright track.

I’m with you, Dimitri. It’s only because I want you to have a very full, happy life. I want that so much for you,

and to that end, I have done everything I can to protect you from those who would sabotage you. Undermine you the way they tried to do me, you mean, uh, the other Damaris? The Yes. Yes. That’s what I mean.

But give me some good news. Tell me about Gwen and how that’s going. Well, I proposed and I offered her a diamond ring. Yes, I know. And has she accepted?

No, not yet. But you should know that all this time that I’ve been by your side, she’s been right here by mine. And from the moment that they rushed you into surgery, she has been here. And I don’t think that she’s left. Now I think she’s still here. She hasn’t left once. Oh, that’s wonderful. Dimitri. Bless her heart.

You know, I know that I was be cavalier and somewhat callous at the beginning of all of this, wanting you to get married. Just because the inheritance was contingent upon it, but

there is nothing that would lift my spirits more than knowing that when you do Mary Ms. R Jack, That you will not only have secured the Von of Fortune, but you would’ve found someone to truly love someone worthy of you.

Oh, so now it’s not just Dimitri plotting against me, it’s his mother too. You said he hasn’t left her side since she got here. Clearly, they’re thickest thieves. Oh, yes. He’s a very devoted son, so clearly they’re conspiring against me. You are really reaching Matty. Mm, I don’t think so. Love bug. When I said Kristen and EJ free, they told me they think Megan and her Spawn are just using you.

But what purpose? Well, they, they couldn’t remember, but they are sure those two are plotting something.

Will you help us figure out what Megan was plotting? Look, I will beg you if I have to.

Why don’t we try Come Scott. No, wait, wait. Come in.

I just wanna make sure that we’re not interrupted. Okay. Who wants to go first?

You know, at first I thought that Lee was trying to throw suspicion off of himself and onto Megan. Yeah. But what he said about her does seem at least possible. And he’s right. I mean, Megan has brainwashed Michaels before. God. I just, I keep going back to that moment where God, he was trying to shoot you.

He’s a Navy seal. If he would’ve pulled the trigger, he wouldn’t have missed. Yeah. So you bum rushed him to get his gun, Gabby. I can’t believe what you did to save me. I had to. You kidding me? I wasn’t gonna let that happen again. N not again. Not like that. Stephen, I love you so much. I love you. That monster that did this is gonna have to pay.

You think it was Megan, you were wondering why she was so insistent on throwing us that party. And that party is exactly where all this went down. Yeah. And EJ and Chris said that they were being held captive by her for weeks. They still don’t know why. Well, maybe this is why. Maybe they were onto her and she needed them out of the way.

Oh, and then maybe that witch injected them with something to make them forget. I will kill her. I will, I will literally go to the hospital right now and, and just smother her with a pillow. Take it easy, easy. Take it easy. Her sister tried to whack you. It’s ruthless. It’s, it’s totally her mo. We’re still not sure.

All right. And it’s too dangerous for you to confront her by yourself, so we need the authorities to handle this. I’ll talk to Trask and I’ll meet you at home. Or the two of us could go smother Megan together. Okay, fine. We’ll do it your way.

See how I just, I just want this to be overs. I just want you to be safe.

It is exhausting trying to convince you that all I want is for you to be safe. How about happy? Do you want that for me? Because Demetri makes me feel that way. Orgasms don’t count. You bloody stop it with the crude jokes and a loud, bloody name calling, there’s absolutely no proof that Demetri is up to no good.

You want proof? I’ll get you proof. I will go back to that house of horrors and dig something up. Yeah, that’s what you said the night of the party. Well, it is not my fault. I got sidetracked by two memory impaired de mirrors. And by the way, just because I didn’t find anything the first time doesn’t mean there’s nothing to be found.

No fine, then go at it. You’re just gonna be wasting your time. Just promise me you will not give D V L or his magic penis an answer about the proposal until I report back.

You’re really asking a lot. I mean, it’s been days. Since he proposed to me, what if he, what if he gets tired of waiting? What if he takes it back? Well then you, my little potato pancake can consider yourself lucky.

Ah, so. Here I am recovering from my brush with death, which given that I actually did lose my life some time ago, doesn’t seem that momentous does it. I mean, if I can come back stronger than ever, from the great beyond, you’ll be back to your old self again, stronger than ever. Once more. And looking at the bright side, my being out of commission for a little while.

Provided an opportunity for you and Gwen to spend some very valuable time together and for you to learn that she is both loyal and Carrie.

Megan, you’re awake. I am indeed. I’m very happy to see you. Are you. I, I wouldn’t be anywhere else. Your son here has been praying for your recovery, as have I. I’m very grateful to both of you.

You both did very well. Is everything clear to you now? Oh, that’s psycho. Megan was planning to kill Stephan. She brainwashed Harris and obviously set up Le Shin to take the fall. Thank God it all came back to us. Oh my God. But it’s still her word against ours. But we have the advantage now. We have the truth.

Marina, I know this was asking a lot and we are so very grateful, but because of you, we can stop Megan from doing any further damage. No, thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Marlena. I, I don’t know how, what to say. Just. Make sure she pays. Okay. What is our next move? We should split up. You go to the station and alert the police.

All right. And what are you gonna do? My dear sister is languishing in hospital. I think it’s time we pay her a visit.

Honestly, this is so wonderful. It’s just such an absolute relief to me too, obviously, especially knowing that you’ve been here by my son’s side, the entire ordeal.

Yes. Well, I’ve, I’ve seen how devoted your son is to you. He was sick with worry. Well, no more worry now. Just a great deal of gratitude that we still have so many happy days ahead of us here, here, and you know, this entire experience has made me realize how much I’ve taken for granted going along as if I have infinite tomorrows.

But this has reminded me that there is nothing in life. That’s a guarantee. It could all end tomorrow in an instant. So I say looking at the two of you, beautiful people starting a new life together.

At least I fer hope you are.

By Darlene’s son and you Gwen, who have supported him through this difficult time, allow me to impart a bit of wisdom.

Don’t postpone your happiness. If an opportunity presents itself, seize it with courage and conviction, and without delay, don’t let it pass you by.

I think I need to rest Yes. Of, of course. I hope that we haven’t text you too much. Not at all. You’ve warmed my heart. Inspired me to heal quickly. But you could go home now. Get out of this jury hospital. You sure? You’ll be all right? Absolutely. Just seeing the two of you growing closer together, making each other happy, it reminds me of the richness in life of the wealth that’s available to us if we simply commit and receive it.

Right. Well, I’m, I’m gonna let you rest, right?

I’m.

Bravo. That was most eloquent out there. Do you think I got my point across? Oh yes. Very effectively. And now, uh, it is time for you to take the reins. Dimitri. It is time for you to make this happen. Make that woman your wife. I will do my damnedest and one.

Don’t trust the others, the, and never forget that you and I we’re a team. We must stick together a united front. Yes, yes, yes. Mother United front. Always,

I love you.

Tell Ms. Trask it’s urgent. Stephan Demara. No, she has my number step. What are you doing here, Gabby? And I just grubbly shin. Now I need to find the da. Yes. Same here. Need to talk. I need to start from Megan. What? What?

What’s wrong? I don’t have time to explain. I’m looking for my sister’s room. Megan, why? So I can tell that maniacal snake that the jig is up. So Marlena agreed to hypnotize you and ej. Mm-hmm. I mean, she wasn’t happy about it, but she did know it was the only way. Did it work? Yeah, sure did. And now we know the truth about what our sister did to us and what she tried to do to you.

So Megan is actually the one who wanted step in death? That’s right. Well, Harris is convinced that the order came from Shin. Yeah. Lee insists he didn’t give Michaels a command to kill me, Gabby, and I don’t know whether to believe him. Well, you can believe him. All right. The commander did not get his commands from Shin.

Forget Shin. Megan’s behind this. It’s all about getting control of the company. Are you sure? Thanks to Marlena. Yes. I frigging knew it

well. Megan gambled that EJ and I wouldn’t remember, and she gambled and lost. It’s the perfect setup. She programs Michaels to think he got his orders from Lee. Her hands stay clean. Mm-hmm. But not anymore. You see, everyone’s gonna know the truth about Megan starting with the da. I left her a message to call me as soon as she’s out of her meeting.

No need for you to hang around as Megan’s intended victim. I would like to be the one to give Trask everything she needs to nail our sister to the wall. Mm. All right, then I will see you back at the house.

It’s time to let my sister know that she’s not fooling anyone anymore. Has she even woken up yet? Well, if she hasn’t, I’ll shake her back to consciousness. Oh, I would love to see the look on her face when she finds out she’s gonna be spending the rest of her miserable life in a cage. And by all means, join me.

I got a message through the police that you wanted to see me. Dr. Evans, thank you for, for coming. What’s going on?

Um,

I realize that I, I need your help.

Coast is clear. Let’s give this another go.

What are you hiding here? Dimwit.

Who the hell do you think you

probably feels like forever since you’ve been back here? I haven’t really missed it, truth be told. That’s because wherever you are is where I now want to be.

I can’t tell you how much it meant to me to have you by my side. I would never have left him alone. Never.

What is it?

Nothing. Okay, I should go. You get some rest. I’ll call you later. Dimitri. Wait.

Look, I know that there’s a lot going on right now.

But I haven’t forgotten that you are waiting my response to your proposal. Oh, Gwen, don’t worry about that. I can wait. No, I can’t wait. And I have an answer for you now.

My answer is yes.

So do you believe me? Now let me be very clear, Lee. I would never take your word on anything, but Kristen was just here and she remembers what happened now. She confirmed what you said. Megan programmed Harris to kill me. Finally, so go talk to the police and get me outta here. No, no, no. This may have been Megan’s plan, but you damn well could have been in on it.

So till I have confirmation, I. That you weren’t, you’re not going anywhere,

dear. I know the truth now.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

No, I can’t come to Rockville right now. Yes, I’m aware it is a holiday, but sweep it is reopening tomorrow and you were supposed to make that flower delivery yesterday. Yeah, well, you try running a business after your partner leaves town and your best employee tries to ruin your business.

Did you know my dad? Oh, you’re Theo. You’ve covered son, and you are.

So the eyewitness who saw my dad fall into the water is an actor. Jerry Prentice is his name.

He hasn’t been in much. Just local theater, a commercial. Oh no, look at this. A couple years ago he was on that soap, body and soul.

Oh, well that’s a little better. Do you wanted to see me, Ms. Delo, it’s about time you got here. I have a job for you. What kind of job? Well, I need someone who can pretend to me the true and rifle air to the DeLorean fortune and that.

What is my son doing in one of my life’s stories?

The hell’s going on here.

Nurse King. What are you doing here? I. I, I, I came to say I’m sorry,

like Sam through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Okay, look, I, I get it’s the 4th of July and you wanna spend it with your family, but my family just lost someone really, really dear to us. And, well, my bakery is reopening tomorrow and I, I just really need something good to happen. Okay? So if you can’t help me, I 8:00 PM I will be in the store. Thank you.

Oh, uh, they were supposed to make a delivery yesterday. Flo, they’re coming tonight. As you probably gather, you’re reopening tomorrow. Yeah, that’s the plan. Assuming nothing else goes wrong, what is all this? Uh, just doing my community service. Keeping Salem clean. Yeah, I heard the DA gave you a deal. Lucky break.

Yeah, well, turns out that she had a personal experience with an abusive relationship, so she showed me some mercy. Well, good for you. Uh, I should go, uh, Chanel, uh, hang on, please. What is it?

I just really wanna say how sorry I am.

You’re sorry for what? Well, for your loss. I heard about your husband’s death and I wanted to share my deep condolences. Thank you. That’s very kind. I didn’t know Mayor Carver very well, but he seemed like a decent and caring man. Yes. He was, and you may have been the last person to see him alive.

I thought so. Uh, but it sounds like that guy at the docks was the last one to see him before he met his tragic fate,

body and soul. Never heard of it. Nice try. I know you used to watch it during the day whenever you worked night shifts. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Oh, really? So it was just a coincidence that the TV would be on that channel when I came home. I mean, if you’re watching it, it’s just, just I have to it.

Fine. All right. I, I, I watched it here and there. Mm-hmm. But only cuz I had a crush on that actress, or was her name Sal or something like that. Oh, so you like her, huh? Just cuz she reminded me of you. But baby you are way, way better looking nice, safe. No, but I don’t recall seeing this guy on the show though.

It looks like he was just in a couple episodes. Yes, he gave up his Hollywood dreams and moved back to good old Salem. I gotta be honest. I was kind of hoping for a mugshot and not a headshot. Yeah. He ran him through the system, but came back clean. Looks like he was just an innocent bystander on the docks.

I mean, why would this guy have any reason to lie about seeing my dad fall into the water?

Jerry? Jerry, you’re the witness. You’re the one who saw my dad fall into the river. Yeah, that’s me. But, but what are you doing here now? Uh, I guess I was drawn to come back because I felt guilty. Guilty about what

is an actor?

Doesn’t make sense. I want you to pretend to be Lord Kyle Vaughn Furstenberg bastard, son of lady Charmaine de Laqua, heir to the de fortune. Do you really think that’s going to work? Why not? Well, in case you haven’t noticed, I don’t exactly bear resemblance to the Delacroix land. Oh, what difference does that make?

DNA never lies until it does. So Kyle, Brandy, Kyle. Oh, rights. Kyle, you do exactly what I say. And no one will ever be the wiser.

I sure as hell will be.

Look, I felt terrible when I heard the news. I was really praying that Mary Carver would be found safe. We all were the not knowing was awful, especially for my mom and well now we have closure, but Babe is gone.

Look, I’ll never be able to forgive myself with the role that I played in all of this. And I know that Colin had nothing to do with Abe’s disappearance, but I mean, if he would’ve never assaulted him, and if I would’ve never helped him in that stupid revenge block, what ifs are pointless now? Okay. I look, believe me, I, I did my fair share of those when Colin and Sloan’s mother died, and it didn’t change a damn thing.

So now I know all we can do is just keep moving forward.

You know, you were right. You know, but while I was putting up those fires, I guess I was just trying to asage my guilty conscience. Did it work? No, it, it didn’t, and I know that there’s nothing I can do to make up for how I hurt you and your feeling.

I, I feel guilty because I saw your dad fall and I almost got to him, but it was too late and I wanted to jump in and save him, but I. You can’t swim. I, I understand. I know that the last thing my dad would’ve wanted was for you to lose your life while trying to save his. You did what you could, right? You called 9 1 1.

Yeah.

At least you know what happened to her. I’m actually glad that I ran into you so that. I can say thank you for that.

That’s very kind of, you very kind pay me a condolence call. You obviously care very deeply for your patience. Oh, mayor Carver was, wasn’t just a patient. I voted for him in every election. I then volunteered for him on his campaign. Before I ever met him, I felt as if I, I knew him personally. Hmm. Abe had an amazing talent for connecting with people.

Oh, he did. You’re very lucky to have had him for as long as you did. I keep telling myself that doesn’t make the loss any easier. We were supposed to be celebrating our first wedding anniversary. I was there. You know what? I was in the park the day that you got married. You were? Yes. I attended a, a Juneteenth barbecue and I just stumbled upon it to watch you exchanged your vows and then jump the broom.

Oh. It made me so, so happy to be a small part of that day o of your lives. I will never forget Abe Carver and I, I feel blessed to have known him.

What are you reading the statement from Nurse Whitley King? It seems like she was the last person to have seen my dad before he left the hospital. But if her timetable is right, there’s still all that time missing before he showed up at the docks. I mean, Eli, where could he have gone? We checked every security camera in Salem.

Nothing. There’s Ray. I’m not supposed to be looking at this house. Okay, that’s fine. No, I don’t wanna get you in trouble, babe. I’m not worried about that.

Bonnie. Oh, Bonnie, it’s so good to see you. You too, boss. Yeah. Wish you were under any other circumstances. Same. Hi. Oh, you too. Haven’t met. Sorry. This is Detective Jada. Hunter. Lonnie. Detective, please call me Jada. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Abe was a wonderful man. Thank you. And. I really appreciate you working so hard on this case.

Okay. Listen, I’m sure that you didn’t, uh, just come all the way down here to Salem PD to say hello. Well, I was part of it. Right. So, uh, let’s just say hypothetically, if you wanted to take a look at the evidence and I wasn’t there, then, uh, hypothetically that would be okay. No harm, no foul. Thank you for understanding.

I’m sorry. That’s my boss from DC second. Okay.

Oh, I’m sorry. Yeah, I’m really sorry. We. I just wish we had better information on your father, Ray. I know that you’ve gone over this case a hundred different ways. I guess I thought if I just, if I saw the evidence for myself that it would help me to accept what happened. Yeah, but I don’t know. Truth is if even if we did figure it out, nothing’s gonna bring my dad back.

Let’s just get to the credits. So I’m hosting the Party of the Decade at Patterns. You plead it, right? And I expect by the ends of the evening you’ll be welcomed into the family’s exclusive. Oh, what do you get out of this? That’s for me to know, for you to find out.

All right here.

Jerry Prentice. What the hell?

That’s not my son’s name.

That means Pauline’s been lying to me. What else is she lying about?

I gotta get outta here. I gotta get outta here.

Are you still seeing Dr. Evans? Yeah. Therapy is a condition of my probation, but I mean, I would’ve gone even if I didn’t have to. So if she’s helping you, yeah, more than I could have hoped. I’m glad to hear that.

Yeah, and I’m glad to see you moving forward too. Look, Chanel Sweet Bits is a great place and I know that you’re gonna make it a success again. Yeah, I’m gonna try. I hope you found someone’s salad to replace me. I did. She’s conscientious, punctual. Trustworthy.

Sounds perfect.

I mean, her oatmeal, scot cheese, taste like hockey pucks, but we’re working on it. Well, what happened there? A friendly fire. Oh, uh, something like that. I’m actually headed home so that I can shower and change and make it back for the flower delivery tonight. Well, um, go look with everything tomorrow and please tell your mom how sorry I am.

I will. Thanks.

Well, I should be going, uh, nurse King. Before you do, could I ask you a favor? Uh, sure. Now, um, as you said, you may be the last person to talk to Abraham. Um, could you tell me his last words to you? Last words, my daughter Chanel. Told me he was confused. He didn’t even remember who I was. I, I was just wondering if you had the same experience.

Did you, you awake? How are you feeling?

Paulina? Excuse me. I know. I know who you are. You’re my wife.

He said. Your name. He did see, yeah. Y’all on some level, he, he must have remembered you.

Oh, thank you. Thank you. Your an angel. You have no idea what it means to me to hear that. Yes. Yes, of course. I, I, I better be going now off, off to work. Of course, of course, of course. And thank you. Thank you again for, for stopping by. Yes. Of

I hope your husband’s taking you somewhere special for your anniversary. Oh, it’s today. It is. Yeah. Happy anniversary. Thank you. But we agreed not to celebrate it until I am actually free. Oh,

what? What’s wrong? My boss just assigned me to a new case in Arizona. What she Explain your situation to him. I tried, but it turns out this case is tied to some other investigation that I’ve been working on for months. Oh, I can’t believe this. Baby, I’m sorry. I, hopefully it’s just for a day. I, I’m gonna do everything that I can to make sure that I’m back in time for his funeral.

But you, you know, I, I, I know you can’t make any promises, honey. No, I, I understand baby. You, you have a job to do, but I’m a supervised release. You agreed to look after me. Does this mean that I have to, I’ll take responsibility for you. Really? Yeah, of course. I’ll get on with corrections right away. Thank you Ray.

That’s the least I can do. When do you leave? They said that they’ll book me out on the latest possible flight, so at least we have some time to spend together tonight. Okay. Then we just have to make the most of the time that we have. Do you mind if we stop by Doug and Julie so I can say bye? Of course not.

Um, as long as we can make one other stop on the way.

Can I ask you something? Of course. I’m just wondering, since you were the last person to see my dad alive, how did he seem? What do you mean? Like did it seem like he was confused, upset? I’m not sure. Uh, I was pretty far away.

Well, did it look like he just tripped? Pretty much it, it, it all happened so fast. I, I don’t think he was in any pain. That’s what you were wondering. Yeah. You have that up. That’s good to know. Thanks. I wish I could tell you more. I, I wish I could have done more, but you, your dad seemed like a, a pretty special guy.

He was,

and I’m gonna miss him forever. Um, Theo, there’s something I need to tell you. We gotta get outta here. See what’s going on.

Abe, what are you doing? I’m leaving.

No, you’re not.

Oh, great. More cases. I’m sorry. I know, I know. You’re already swamped. Maybe if we had Eli and Lonnie back on the force, I’d be able to get through this stack. Not that I’m complaining. No, no, no, no. Complain away. I’m just saying. I mean, well, we have leash and in custody. Harris Michaels is under observation at the hospital, and then there’s Kristen and EJ Demere’s kidnapping situation, which is fishy to say the least.

Oh man. I just remember, oh no, you got one more assignment. Yeah. What now? Go home, watch some fireworks. Well, come on. No, that’s in order now. I am not saying you have to watch fireworks with me, but if you do happen to, wanna spend your well-deserved time off with yours, truly, you may, um, street location then.

Well, I do enjoy being. Discreet with you, Ms. Hernandez, you’re on.

Jerry, what is it, Theo? You’ve suffered such a terrible loss. And Theo, buddy Eli. Hi. Hi.

It’s a trying your dad, what are you guys doing here? I asked Eli to bring me here so I could see where the accident happened. I, I just, I didn’t know this would be here. So many people loved that.

Dear Jerry Apprentice. Yes. Jerry came because he felt bad about not being able to help dad when he fell into the river. But I, I told him that it’s not his fault that we don’t blame him. Thank you for saying that. Hey, why did you tell my husband you’re on that soap? Body and soul? Oh, it was a long time ago.

Mm-hmm. Well, if he’d known, he probably would’ve asked you for your autograph cuz he is secretly a fan of yours. Lonnie? No. Uh, well this is clearly a, uh, family moment, so I should just go, Jeremy, wait. Before Elia and Eli showed up, you said that you had something to tell me. What is it? Oh, I just wanted to say again how terrible I feel about your dad, and I want you to know how deeply saw her half.

Hey baby. Oh Mama. So how’s the reopening of Sweet Bits coming along? Who is coming? What are you doing on? Figured you’d be there all night getting ready? Yeah, I just came back to shower and change really quick and I’m gonna head back and, um, but. I just, I, I really hate leaving you alone again. I haven’t been alone.

Not for the whole time anyway. Oh, who came over? Oh, Whitley uh, um, nurse King came by to pay her respects really Abe’s nurse. Mm-hmm. She had so many wonderful things to say about him that was nice of her. Mm-hmm. He wasn’t her patient for long, but he really seemed to touch her life. You’ve been lying to me.

Oh, Abe, what are you talking about? Sat theo on Body and Soul, and he was playing Lorna DeLorean’s Bodyguard. And I watched the credits and they didn’t say Theo Carver, it was Jerry Prentice. You see?

Jerry Preis is his stage name, stage name. Apparently there was another actor named Theo Carver. He didn’t wanna be confused with him. Anyway, body, his soul was pretty much his last role, and he moved to South Africa and open up his own business.

I don’t believe you. I don’t believe any of it.

You’re leaving tonight, believe me. I wish I didn’t have to this anniversary. That sucks. I told you, Theo, we’re not celebrating our anniversary. Not until I’m free. Dad wouldn’t want you to wait. You’re playing the dad card. Really, Theo? He’s kind of right. Lonny. What are you saying, babe? I have hours before I need to be at the airport.

Plus we haven’t had a night together, and I don’t know how long. Well, we don’t have to make it about our anniversary. I, I just want to enjoy every moment that I have with you. He’s right. You should listen to him. I’m gonna head over to Pauls Chanel’s reopening her bakery tomorrow, and I’m sure that your mom could use the comfort.

Thank you. There may or may not be lasagna left in the fridge, so it’s not entirely altruistic. Yes. Soon. Easy.

What’s that?

This is my old pile. Bruno dad got him from me at a carnival when I was six. I used to not be able to sleep unless I was holding this thing. I squeeze. I’m sorry, this little, no, I was ripped off. You lived. Lived a tough life.

I think Dad probably thought I was gonna carry all my stuffed animals with me to high school. You’d be very proud if I was gonna leave this here, then

you. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I will be. I love you so much. I love you.

I knew I was gone, but

I don’t think I felt it until right now. I’m sorry, Lonnie. I’m so sorry.

Uh, so it sounds like you and Theo have big plans tonight. Where? Dinner, fireworks on tv. Maybe a game of Canasta. You can’t play Canasta with Theo. Why not? So guys a shark. He’ll take you for everything you’re worth. Okay, we’ll skip the canesta now. Tell me, uh, how’s the new employee at Sweet Bits working out?

She’s okay. Just okay. Well, she’s fine. She’s just not Talia. I, I ran into TA at the square and um, she wanted me to tell you how sorry she feels about Abe and she still feels so guilty. I’m deeply ashamed for her part in all of it. Well enough of that. What do you mean? I mean, Talia is a young woman who was under the spell of a, a very bad man.

So for obvious reasons, my heart goes out to her and I think she should let go of the guilt and the shame and. To focus on being stronger and wiser from now on, making a good life for herself. Oh, that’s, That’s very, uh, kind of you, I, I’ll tell her that if I ever see her again.

Hey, hey. What’s going on? Uh, I’ve been just here to give my parole officer my signed forms. You know, to show I’m doing my community service and my therapy, but I can’t seem to find her anywhere. I’ll take care of it for you. Oh, thanks. So how’s therapy going? Really well, Dr. Evans is the best. Well, I’m glad it’s working.

Yep. She even offered to help me find a job at the hospital when my probation ends. That’s amazing. Now you’ll finally get back to doing what you were trained to do. Yeah. What’s wrong?

And it’s just, I saw Chanel before and she told me she hired this new woman. Are you jealous? Jealous. No. For what? You miss working at the bakery? Yeah, actually I do a lot. I know Chanel never forgive me for what I did, and she shouldn’t, but I mean, GIA, I have to admit. What?

Every time I see her, I miss her too.

Oh, Abe, everything I’ve told you is the truth. No, no, it’s not. Something has felt wrong from the beginning. You know what? Maybe you should lay down, darling. I don’t want, I don’t want to lay down. I want you to tell me the truth right now. Or I’m gonna call the police.

Oh, there you go. Here you go. What did, what did Jesus do to me? Oh, it was just a mild sedative, darling, you drug me. Oh, you were, you were confused and upset. Oh, I can’t let you leave, darling. Not now. Not ever. You.

Toya. Hey, uh, sorry. I realized I never returned this. Oh, thanks. Yeah, I figured you need it. You know, from a replacement.

I am really grateful. To be here with you in this moment, but I miss my dad. I miss our beautiful babies. That reminds me Carver and Jules, they made this for you. I think we have a couple of artistic geniuses on our hands, um, for mommy. Ugh.

Carter did that. Yeah, I love it. Um, but I, I don’t have anything for you babe. You don’t need to get me anything for our anniversary. Just having you here with me. It’s the best gift I could ever receive. Just sucks that we don’t have more time together. I know, but we’ll be together soon enough. You’ll be free.

You’ll be a family again. Yeah, and I’ll never take that for granted again. My freedom, my beautiful family. Just having you guys close to me and not just in my heart. I love you. I love you too.

Thank you.

I was hoping you wouldn’t notice. What are you thinking about?

Last 4th of July, your father was sitting right there where you are now. We were watching. Tv. He was trying so hard to be so strong after Lani had just been sent to prison and you going back to South Africa.

We were watching the fireworks and I looked over

and there was this tear holding down his face.

See, isn’t this nice a perfect night, just the two of us.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Mama, look how beautiful mama.

Oh, just, just put, put a bit all the, okay.

All right. And here is the note.

You can read it.

Okay. Dear Paulina and Chanel, we are very sorry for your unimaginable loss. You are in our thoughts and we are here for you. Whatever you need, always love John and Marlin.

Such good friends. I’ve loved Abe so much. I’m sure they must be grieving too. Um, I should send them something.

No, mama. Right now you just need to take care of yourself. Okay.

Come on buddy. You gotta be out here somewhere.

Is that you buddy?

Hello, John.

I knew that I’d find you. Oh, I gotta tell Paulina. I’m sorry, John. I can’t stay. What do you mean you can’t stay? Goodbye old friend.

No, no, no. Don’t believe. Don’t go Abraham. Abraham. Don’t go.

What are you doing with that paper?

Did you, did you see the paper? They’re saying that my dad is dead. The, they’re saying that Commissioner Hernandez thinks so too. All the people that I need and love, I I just keep losing them. You haven’t lost me, Theo. I’m right here. Hi.

Like Sam through the hour class. So are the of

So does this mean No, I, I haven’t been released from prison, but Eli convinced the warden to grant me a furlough for dad’s funeral. I just have to wear this, honey. Thank God you’re here. I love you. I’m so grateful I could be here. I’m just, I’m so sorry, Theo. I wasn’t here when dad first went missing, and I wish we could have waited together or maybe I could have helped find him.

No, babe, we went over this. There’s nothing that you could have done that Steve, John, or Raf didn’t try. Helis, right? Everybody was looking for him, and even though he’s the most well-known man in Salem, nobody saw him on a single soul. I just, I don’t get it money. I don’t get it either. Hey, but we have to be strong for each other.

Okay. And we have to take care of each other. Okay. Because that is what dad would’ve wanted. Okay. I love you.

You didn’t even come to bed last night. Well, I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep,

just be going over this stuff again. I still can’t believe Abe just walked off the docks, fell in the water, and drowned even though all the evidence points to that evidence can be fabricated. Is that what you think happened? It’s just too easy. Sweetness. It’s too pat.

Oh, thank you. You woke up drenched in sweat, calling out Abe’s name. Yeah. They’re one of those damn nightmares.

Do you wanna talk about it?

Yeah.

I was down at the docks and I found. And we, we were, we were face to face. I was talking to him and before I could call Paulina to tell him that he was okay, he was gone. And I, I couldn’t stop cock. I tried it. I, uh, I couldn’t stop on my eye.

No wonder the dream was so upsetting for you. Paulina trusted that Steve and I were gonna find him, and I let her down.

Let him down.

So, did you hear me? What are you doing with that paper? I was, I was getting rid of it before you woke up. Why? Because I didn’t want you to get upset. Why am upset now? I don’t like being handled. Okay. I’ll tell you something terrible happened down at the docks. A local man who had gone missing was found in the water.

He drown? Yes. Yes. Well, at least now his poor family can have closure for weeks. They had been looking for him. Well, I, I feel sorry for them. And for him, but I’m not falling apart. And now I’d like to read that story for myself.

Lasagna from the bistro, from Maggie and Victor, Kiki. How nice we can have it for dinner with the green beans that Julie brought over.

What, just, uh, don’t you think it’s maybe time for you to take a shower and get dressed? Not yet, darling. Not right now. Right now I getting dressed reminds me of just wanting to look my best for my sweet husband, and without him here I. No, I just, I just need to sit here right now. Come, come sit with me.

Sit with me.

No. Excuse me. I’m sorry, Abe. I’m putting my foot down. The details are just too upsetting and the doctor said that we have to keep your stress levels low, you know, to a minimum, so we avoid another seizure. I feel fine. Well, you felt fine before the last one, didn’t you? You know, you’re not the only one going through this.

You know, I’m, I’m, I’m scared. I’m scared all the time.

I, I’m sorry. I, I, I wasn’t thinking, I, I, I know this is, this isn’t easy for you. I, I just can’t lose you. Okay. I get it. I get it. I’m, I’m sorry. Then, then I have to go to work and I have to leave you at home alone. Look, I feel, I feel fine. You, you don’t have to worry about me. Okay. Well, I, I better go and get ready now.

Get ready to go to work.

And believe me, darling, I’m doing this for you. This is what’s best for you.

You are being too hard on yourself. You and Steve did everything you could to find a, obviously we didn’t do enough. Right?

You know what the worst part is?

We gave Pauline hope. We told her, it just doesn’t make any sense how he could have got from wherever he was all the way down to the dock without somebody recognizing him and calling the cops. Don’t you believe that? I still believe that. I don’t know how he could have done it or why he fell in the water, but then you got the hospital bracelet.

His name’s on it. The blood. Most important. You have an eyewitness, the only person who saw him these last two weeks. Finally, somebody sees Abe. And what happens the next minute he falls off the dock and drowns in the river.

So you, you got to see Joseph Carter? I did. Uh, I cannot tell you how wonderful it was just to hold my babies and my arms without a prison matron. Just watching me like a hawk. Yeah. They’re with my mom now. We do wish we could have brought them, but obviously they’re, they’re too young to deal with all this.

Right. But we, we know how much they left their grandpa. Yeah. And we did tell them what happened, but they didn’t seem to understand, which is a, a good thing for now.

They seem to be starting fireworks early.

Oh my God. 4th of July. It’s, it’s your anniversary.

What’s wrong? Are you guys fighting? No. No. Theo No we’re not. You’ve given everything that’s been thrown at us this year. I think, uh, we’re doing pretty damn well. So why did you both seem so we’re gonna say it was your anniversary cause we decided that we’re not gonna celebrate this year. Because of Dad Lonnie.

That is the reason why you should celebrate, you know how happy he was about you and Eli, how, how he love that you two got married and how he was over the moon when the babies were born. I know, I know Theo, but to have champagne and a fancy dinner without him there, I can’t do it. I’m sorry. I can’t do it.

I’m sorry, Lonnie, I didn’t mean to upset you. Come here. Yeah. I think we better our head over to Pauline is You wanna come with us? No, I’ll, um, I’ll come over later. I think she’s gonna wanna spend some time alone with you. Yeah. And there’s something I have to do. What do you mean to Pat? Well, first of all, do you really think Abe was physically capable of getting outta the hospital on his own?

At the time I didn’t think so, but I suppose it’s possible. Okay. Well, S AA did wander off on his own. Salem PD puts out an a p b, and for weeks the cops and a whole army of volunteers search for one of the best known men in the city. And no one reports seeing anyone they even think might have been a and one day, weeks later.

The first person to lay eyes on Ave sees him at the exact moment. He walks into the water and drowns, and then the case is closed, all tied up with the ribbon. Something doesn’t add up, baby.

So you’re saying that if egg was so confused and so out of it, he just, he just walked off a dock into the river then how did he survive the weeks before that? No, he was, uh, not only suffering from Amnesia, he was recovering from a head injury. So what did he negotiate the streets on his own. Would you still think that it was Colin Bedford that did it?

I know maybe he kidnapped Abe, I don’t know. But he was in jail most of the time. Abe was missing if someone wasn’t looking after Abe. I don’t understand how he didn’t end up in social services. And thanks to Abe Salem is very proactive in helping the homeless. You know, you’re really, you really kind of scaring me now.

Oh, I’ll get in.

Theo. Theo, I’m so glad you came over. Oh, Steve, look. Look at Theo. Hey man. Okay. I’m so sorry.

This is, uh, this is a tough day. I, I am sorry that, uh, John and I didn’t come through for your dad and for you. You did your best. I just came to say thank you for the donation you made in my dad’s name to the autism charity. Well, we, we know how important that charity was to your dad. We were happy to do it.

And we really loved your dad, and we love you, and we are here for you.

Well, your executives and your long lunch breaks. Mm-hmm. How you feeling? I tell you, I feel a lot better when I get these bullet fragments outta me. Yeah. How you doing these days?

Hey, hey look, I’m not trying to pry, I’m asking as a friend who’s friend. Mine are Romans. Both of you. I don’t want either one of you to get hurt.

What were you just, now

I was thinking of the moment that I found out I wasn’t the person I thought I was. And how my whole life that I knew I changed in an instant

and there was Abe, one thing in my life was still the same, and it was my friendship with Abraham.

Dammit, doc, I just wish that I could have been as good a friend to him as he’s always had been to me. You were, you were. He always knew that about you. Dammit, doc. I was so damn sure that we were gonna find him. I, I was so damn sure that someone had taken him for whatever reason, they were holding him against his will and, and,

And I was so damn wrong.

Well, I’m off to work now.

I Are you still mad at me? No, not mad. I just, uh, I just get a bit lonely when you’re gone. Oh, well I thought you were catching up on body and Soul. I am, but it would be nice to have people who talk back, you know, I was thinking, couldn’t feel come over and hang out for a while. Oh, I forgot to tell you, uh, Theo had to travel back to South Africa.

What? My son left town without saying goodbye. Well, he stopped by on his way to the airport, but you were resting and I didn’t wanna disturb you, but I would’ve wanted to say goodbye. You should have woken me up. I, I know. I, I, I, you’re right. I, I, I’m sorry. What? What, what about your daughter? Huh? Chanel. My stepdaughter, couldn’t she come by and see me?

I just keep thinking of the heartache got brought to Abraham with my secrets and lies. Mama, you more than made up for whatever heartache you caused him by all the love and support you gave him. He was so crazy about you.

Look at that be.

This is delicious. I know things are hard right now, Theo, but you have to remember to eat. I’ll try. And you know what? If you ever are feeling alone or you wanna talk to somebody, we’re here for you. I know that. Thank you. But I think I’m gonna be okay, especially now that my sister’s here. Mama, you’re not going to believe this.

No, but. What is it now of a, let me guess, a cactus. Well, Eli does say I can be a bit prickly if I haven’t had my morning coffee. Mommy.

Oh. Hi, mama. I’m home. My baby girl, my darling, my precious girl.

Come on, man. What’s the matter with you? What? What, honey? What? I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. From the moment I woke up here, all I’ve been thinking about and talking about is myself, and I know you’re going through this too, sweetheart. It’s hitting me hard too. It doesn’t mean that you can’t talk to me about how you’re feeling.

Look, the only way that we’re going to get through this, and I I, I mean beyond the two of us way, we’re all going to get through this is talk about our feelings, share our feelings. In fact, I think I have an idea.

Paulina must have been thrilled to see Lonnie. God bless Eli for bringing her home. It’s just a furlough. Well, I think it’s really important that your whole family is together for the funeral. Yeah.

When my mom died, I was able to say bye to her, but. My dad, he just, he just went away. He just disappeared and then drowned. I just, I, it, it doesn’t make sense to me. I,

I am so grateful that you’re here, Lonnie. I’m so very, very grateful, even if it is for such a terrible, sad reason. Yeah, I’m grateful too. I am beyond grateful to be free, even if it is for a short time so that I can be here with my mama and my sister and my brother. Thing is, um, some part of me just, it just doesn’t, uh, just don’t feel that.

Dad is really gone. Mm-hmm. It’s so surreal. Yes, it is. It is. And oh, the way it happened. Oh Lord Lonnie, it just doesn’t make sense to me. Maybe, I suppose partly because we, we didn’t get to say goodbye to him. Never got to see him touch him,

and how the hell are we supposed to have a proper home going when we don’t have a body?

Well, Chanel was intending to come over to visit with her. Step, pop, pop, step, pop, pop. Oh yeah. That’s a little, uh, pet name that she has for you. You love it when she calls you that and yet I cringe on you. Say it anyway. As I was just getting ready to say, Chanel has just been so swamped at the bakery, so, so another day is staring at the walls.

What, how luckily for you body and soul is fitting to get better. You’re about to meet Lorna. She’s back Who? That’s Lorna. Lorna is just one of the great soap bitches of all times. And trust me when I tell you, you gonna love to hate her. Check it out.

I know that it would help us all to accept what happened, but given a case like this, there’s just no telling when or. Even if his body will ever be found and yet, and yet what? Sweetheart? They didn’t waste any time declaring him dead, did they? Even though there’s no evidence to prove it for a fact.

Lonnie, no, Eli. I wanna see that evidence for myself. I wanna go down to the station. That’s against policy Mia, but you know, given the circumstances, I’m sure Ray wouldn’t, he wouldn’t mind and I don’t care if he would mind. Can we go now? Oh, wait a minute, darling. Lanie you. You’re out of prison today. It’s your anniversary.

You shouldn’t be spending at a police station, especially since nothing you find down there at that police station will bring a back to us. Mama. I have to see that evidence for myself. Or I will never sleep again. Paulina, look, when she gets like this, you just got I know. I know. There’s no changing her mind.

Tell me something. I don’t know. Thank you.

We’ll be back as soon as we can. Well, I’m gonna walk out with you. I need to head back over to the baby. You call me if you need anything. Okay? You gonna be all right alone. I think I should get used to it, don’t you? Hey, you too. I’m just about to call you. Look who’s here. Oh. Oh my goodness. Oh, good to see you.

I’m so sorry about your dad. Thank you. Good to see you kiddo. Be on. Sorry. I know how hard you work to find him. And you too. I’m very grateful. Dad was a good man. He one of the best. We loved him a lot. He knew that. He used to say. He used to say, okay. Do you wanna talk about this? No, actually, um, I think I should get going now.

Are you sure? You’re all right. Lonnie’s. Someone furlough. I’ll be fine. Lonnie’s here. Please, please give her a love and, and send her love to Paulina as well. Tell her to call us if there’s anything we can do. I will. It was nice to see you all again. Yeah, you too Sweet. Take kid. Come back anytime. Okay.

Goodness. Poor kid.

Damnit. Should have found him. You should have found him. We should have found him. You too are blaming yourselves entirely too much for this. You did everything you could. You searched and searched. Come on. You left no stone unturned. You did your very best. And I’m sure if were here, He would say the same thing.

It’s burned.

So that’s Lorna. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Like I said, one of the greatest soaper bitches of all time, so large than life, so over the top. So outrageous that Susan Lucci and Heather Lockney are fired, their agents. Oh. Oh, okay. I wish I could sit here and watch with you five more minutes, but then I’ll be late for work.

Happy watching. Thanks. Oh, oh, oh. When I come home, I’m gonna need to hear all about your favorite cat fight.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the most unstoppable of.

You okay?

Yeah,

it’s just, it’s really weird being back here. So many memories.

Mainly meeting my new partner. And falling in love with him, and him falling even more in love with you. Okay. And, uh, they got married. Mm-hmm. And they lived happily ever after. Okay. Okay. Fine. With a few challenges, but nothing that they couldn’t handle. Mm. Because they were tough. So tough. And so enough,

uh, you know, doc, you’re right. Steve and I, we busted our ass. We did our damnedest to find Abe. You know what I’m thinking? I’m thinking that maybe I’m just blaming myself because it’s a hell of a lot easier than accepting the fact that he’s gone. Yeah. It’s the same for me. Yeah. Hey, did I tell you I had another dream about him this morning?

I dreamt that I found him down on the docks, but he just walked away from me. Didn’t go in the water. He just walked away from me. You didn’t tell me that. I thought I did. Why don’t you tell me about the end of the dream, what, whatever details you can remember.

I was getting on my phone to call Paulina and

I hear Abe say that he was sorry that he couldn’t stay. I said, what do you mean by that? And he just said, goodbye, old friend. And he turned around and he walked off into the fog and I kept calling on him and he was gone.

What is it?

I was thinking that maybe just, maybe this is not really about John’s guilt, the dream. I mean, maybe it’s about. John’s something that, there’s something wrong here. That’s what I’ve been saying. Abe was injured, he had amnesia. How did he survive all those weeks? With no one seeing him looking after him.

Yeah. And this, this witness, the one and only person to see him is the one who watches him go in the water. That means eight had to get from wherever he was all the way down to the dock without anyone seeing him. We need to get back to work.

This is a lab report matching the blood from the pylon to AIDS blood sample that was on record at the hospital. D. Exact match. Exact match. Hmm.

When I first came to Salem, I just, I knew I was my biological father and I was determined to prove it. My mom said, you two weren’t together very long. She didn’t even tell me how you guys met. Well, she almost crashed into my car on her way to singing Friend’s Wedding Dr. Marlena Evans, they went to college together.

Yeah,

she, um, she doesn’t know about you either, Bonnie, didn’t you, you ever wonder who your father was? Of course I did. Probably thought he was some dent.

When your mother left Hannah,

I had no idea she was pregnant.

How could she not tell me I had a daughter?

I was wrong about the d n. But Abe, Abe is your father in every way that counts.

What else is in there? Here’s a statement from Jerry Prentice. He saw your dad go in the water.

What’s this? It looks like a professional photo. Yeah, detective Hunter dug that up. Turns out Jerry Prentice is an actor.

Oh, well that’s a little better.

You wanted to see me, Ms. DeLorean?

It’s about time you got here. I have a job for you.

What kind of job?

I need someone who could pretend to be the true and rightful heir to the DeLorean fortune, and that is where you come in.

Abe: Theo?

Paulina: Oh, Nurse King, what?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Being at the hospital with me must have been difficult, but it, it meant a lot to me. I’m glad I could be there. Not as glad as I am.

Erica, you know, I should, I should go get that food for you. You’re to look a little pal.

What the hell have I walked in on? Oh, Leo Star. I never thought I’d say this, but thank God you are here. Well, I don’t mean to kink shame, but what is going on here? Oh, well, you know, playing cops and robbers can get a little outta hand, seriously. Of, of course not you, imbecile. Our sister, Megan did this to us.

She’s held US cap down here for weeks, weeks. Oh my gosh. I knew it. I knew it. You knew? Well, I knew she was up to something, so I followed her here. Lady Whistleblower can always sniff out a good story, and you’d be surprised how more often than not my nose leads me to uncovering an underground bondage dungeon just like yours.

Oh god. All right. This isn’t a bondage dungeon, huh? Well, I should hope not. It’s not usually siblings. I find all tied up together. So why did Megan do this to you? Because we found out that she was planning on

well out with it. Handsome planning on what? Uh,

I don’t, I don’t remember.

Hey, where is the host? I mean, people are starting to get a little restless Honored. Guests welcome. Now please accept my apologies for the delay. In order to make this a really special night tonight, I had to bring a bottle of my father’s very favorite champagne. Just took me a little longer to get it than I expected, but I’m here now and I’m so glad that you are all here too.

Because there is nothing in this world more important than family is there. I am so grateful that you have all welcomed me back into your bosom,

and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host this lovely gathering for my newfound brother and his gorgeous bride to be. And I just know that father is smiling down on us now. Happy to see us all together again. Well, at least most of us. Yeah, very few of us. And yes, I know that we have our differences, but we overcome them, don’t we?

That’s what families do. Well, normal family is like yours. My sister Megan, she’s an assassin. Thomas Banks had to kill us. So all those things are a little bit hard to overcome. Mm-hmm. I’m so sorry for all of the lost years that we could have spent together, but I look forward to the many, many happy years to come.

And now I want everyone to grab a glass of champagne so we can toast the happy couple, the lovely Gabriela and my charming brother Stephan. Oh my God. Harris Michaels, what the hell are you doing here?

Sorry, Kate. Commander Michaels is in accepting calls at this time. He’s under new management and Megan and Ivory, give him his first assignment. Eliminate Stephan Demara.

Sorry to interrupt the festivities, but I’m gonna need everyone to move to that side of the room right now. No sudden movements. Let’s go. I’d hate for my friend here cause I have to start barking orders. Michaels, what are you doing? I’m here to eliminate a threat. What threat? Oh my God, don’t you see? I’m the threat.

He’s here to kill me.

Like Sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

This looks delicious. Well, Harold, he did most of the work, but for the record, I did toast the toast. Oh, really? Mm-hmm. I was just gonna say how toasty the toast looks. I think you found your new calling. You know what? Drink some tea. Stay hydrated. The doctor’s orders. Okay.

Oh yeah. It’s the spot. It’s even worth all your nagging. I’m looking out for you and the baby. Yeah, only the baby’s father was so attentive. Eric, I, I, I really do appreciate your help, but EJ should be the one doing this instead of being on some secret business trip where he couldn’t even be bothered to answer his phone.

Well, I’m sure he has his reasons. Well, they’re not gonna be good enough. It’s like he’s forgotten what’s important. This baby isn’t even born yet. He’s already abandoned us.

You don’t remember? Come on. This isn’t like your locker combination, Sean, but let me think. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Ah, it’s like the memory is evaporated from my brain. I, I know something should be there, but it’s not. I, I, I dunno. What do you think? Hm? What do you think? What do I think? Hm. Um, oh, I, I think that Megan injected us with something.

She’d make us forget, forget what her plan. Uh, uh, probably, um, the thing is, is that I have no idea what, uh, what, you know, what? I, I don’t even, I don’t know any of this. I might have a vague idea. Does it have something to do with her son, Dimitri? What about it? Well, he proposed to my best friend Gwen, but I think he and mommy dearest have an ulterior motive.

Does any of that ring a bell? Oh, actually, I. It does sound familiar.

It’s all happening right upstairs. Soon Stefan will be dead. And I’ll be there to pick up the pieces for Gabby Lee.

What doing here?

Can’t you see? This man wants revenge for everything that I did to him. He even came to my house a couple of weeks ago and threatened me. Mother, why didn’t you tell me? I, I thought he was all talk that it was just a hollow threat. I didn’t realize that he was this terrain enough. No, Michaels. You wanna hurt my mother?

You’re gonna go through me first. No, Dimitri, stay outta this. Relax. I’m not here to kill either one of you. Oh, thank God. I’m here to kill Stephan.

You’re here to kill Stephan. Yeah, I don’t understand. You don’t even know me. I assure you, Mr. Damara, there’s nothing personal. I’m just following orders. Whose orders?

I can’t. Just watch him do this. We’ll call the police.

Drop it. I’m sorry.

Next person I see with the phone will not get a warning. Is that understood?

This can go one of two ways. Everybody can do as they’re told and survive the night, or I can take out as many people as I have to to complete my mission. Okay. You said earlier you were eliminating a threat. How am I a threat to you? Isn’t it obvious, Stephan? I mean, who would consider you a threat?

No. Yeah. It has to be EJ who, who’s conveniently not at this party, who’s been plotting against you this entire time, who would be crazy enough to hire this lunatic to take you out. Is that true? Did my brother hire you? Answer me, dammit.

Fine. If you must know

it wasn’t ej I. And who, who are you working for?

The man who wants you dead is Lee Chen. What? What?

I didn’t hear you sneak up on me. Oh, I’m not sneaking up on anyone. I’m just trying to go to my sister’s engagement party. Running a little late, aren’t you? Yeah. Well, things have been a little hectic down at the station. Of course, I heard about Mayor Carver. I’m so sorry. Uh, you still haven’t answered to my question.

What are you doing lurking about? No one’s lurking, but I was just, uh, passing through. Yeah. Seemed a little nervous to be just passing through. I’m not, you were thinking about going up there. Weren’t you crashing the party, creating a scene?

Fine. You got me. Commissioner Guilty’s charged.

Okay. Okay. I was right. Lady. Whistleblower strikes again. Megan and her son aren’t just using Gwen, but why? I, I, I don’t remember. Damn it. Woman. What you think? Don’t get your hands off of you. Little creep. Listen, you’re friends with Gwen too, don’t you wanna help her? Something tells me that my sister’s plan is a lot more sinister than manipulating your friend.

I, I feel like it’s more high stakes, like it’s life or death. Are you saying Gwen is in danger? I feel like someone else is the main target. Like who? I don’t know. It’s just a gut feeling. Oh my God, you two are useless. Oh no. You know who is useless. You found us ages ago and you still haven’t UNT yet. It would help if you asked nicely unless you wanna fully commit to your non day plume lady.

I suggest you untie us now. I even say, please, no. Hey,

I’m sorry. I am sure the last thing you wanna hear is me complaining about ej. It’s okay. I mean, you have every right to be angry. Look, you, you, you should go. Don’t feel obligated to stay it. I don’t feel obligated. And you know what? You shouldn’t be alone right now. No, I, I told you the cramps turned out to be nothing trip.

And the ob g y n said that I’m fine. And so is the baby besides Harold’s here if I need anything. Are you sure? I’m sure.

All right. Okay, thanks. Listen, thanks again. I, I am grateful. That I can still count on You always.

I can’t do this. I’m with ej.

Hi. Yeah. Well then where is he?

I’m sorry, I, I’m sorry. I just, I felt that old pool between us and those old feelings of being abandoned and worthless. Okay. You shouldn’t feel either. And he jay’s a jackass for doing this to you. And if that baby were mine,

I’m sorry. That’s not helpful.

That’s okay. You would’ve been the perfect father

and you still can be if things work out with you. And Sloane,

thank you for saying that. It’s the truth.

Speaking of which, I have some hard truths to face with EJ if I ever see him again. That is, And if I do or when I do, I don’t know if I can forgive him for this disappearing when I need him the most. I am gonna kill when I right there. Oh, Nicole. Thank God, ej,

we put you up to this. Is that so hard to believe? Apparently the guy still has something for you. And, and that maniac thinks that killing my fiance is the way to win bad my love. I believe it’s more of a, if I can’t have her then good job. Ralph Harris is convinced he’s working solely for Lee. Just as I planned, we’re we’re just as supposed to believe a crazy man with a gun.

Look, I know my brother and he would never hire someone to kill Stephan. He’s not a murderer. He did pull the plug on me when I was in a coma that was different. Okay. Making a split second mistake is a whole lot different than plotting to murder someone in cold blood because he says something you, you know, that’s not Lee.

Well, Stefan’s, right? Lee has a history of trying to eliminate his competition by any means necessary, but my brother has accepted that you moved on Gabby. I mean, he didn’t even fight to the divorce. He let you go. Wendy. Wendy, when we ran into Lee earlier tonight, he insisted you not come to this party.

That was just. About loyalty to him. Yeah. Boy, he didn’t want you getting caught up in the crossfire.

Lee, you need to stay away from this party. Do you hear me? Do you understand you have caused Gabby enough pain already? I know you’re right. I, it’s just, it’s just what Lee, I ran into my sister and Johnny Damara as they were headed in, and Gabby and Stephan, and honestly I tried to be happy for them, but seeing them, knowing what’s going on in there, I just can’t get it outta my head.

What could have been. I loved your sister so much. I still do. Okay. I hear you and I understand because I have been in a similar situation myself, but what you need to understand is what you and Gabby had before it is over. You need to accept that.

You can’t just willow away feelings brave. Sure you know that even now. Right now, knowing how happy they are up there just breaks my heart.

So it’s true. Lee put you up to this. Why would I lie? What the hell happened to, to turning your life around wanting redemption for all of the terrible things that you, this isn’t you, is it? You’ve been brainwashed again. This time by Lee Shin. No, you’re right. Chad Lee’s done this before. He, he brainwashed han into forgetting that he loved me and now he’s brainwashed hairs into becoming his assassin.

Owens Town hasn’t been brainwashed. Ah, it’s sort of a thing here. Just wait until somebody pulls off a Mission Impossible style mask. Mid party crash. Right? Shut up, everyone. Shut up. I don’t know what you’re talking about.

All I know is I have orders from Lee to kill you.

It’s about that time.

Aj, you’re here. Yes. Thank God I’m here with you. Um, when did you get back in town? I never left. What? Megan locked me in the tunnel. Hey, hey. US, us struck us in the tunnels. Okay. Why would she do that? We don’t know, but we’re pretty sure she gave us something that’s affecting our memories. Good God. How did you escape?

Well, I mean, thankfully Leo Stark found us and he set us free. Leo Stark? Yeah. What was he doing down there? No idea. I don’t remember.

Ah, Megan must be using this as her base of operations, so there has got to be something down here.

Oh my Gaga, jackpot pot. This is the good stuff. Ancestral wealth tear bubbly. No legal focused. No. Today you are a hero. You have got to find proof that Dimitri is up to no good. It’s the only way to stop going from getting hurt. Okay?

No. Oh, I can’t watch Michael’s. Michaels. Michaels. Just stop. All right. You don’t wanna do this. Orders are orders. But you don’t have to follow them. Whatever Lee did to you, Michaels fight it. Do not listen to Lee’s voice in your head. Michaels, you listen to your own. Okay? Deep down, you know this is wrong.

Think about that time that you set that bomb off at my apartment in Seattle. You felt terrible about that after you broke free from the brainwashing. You hated Megan for doing that to you. Um, how about we don’t remind the man with the gun how much he hates me? Please, please don’t let me make you do this.

You’re not a murderer. Um, actually, technically he is a murderer. I read his case and there were several instances where. Sorry, I have an idea. Let, let me get Lee on the phone and you know what? You probably think I’m gonna call 9 1 1. You get him on the phone and let me just talk to him right now. I can talk him out of this.

Please, please.

Thanks Ray. As much as I’m hurting, Hoda just made it worse. Humiliating myself at Gabby and Seven’s party. Nah, I’m glad you stopped me. I didn’t do it for you. Well, either way, you helped me and I appreciate it and I promise I’m headed straight home. Good. Give my congratulations to the happy couple.

Fair enough. Goodnight Lee.

Hopefully by the time you get up there, it’ll be too late. The job will have been completed.

Please let me call Lee. I I can straighten this up. Drop the phone, but Gabby’s right, she and I can make my brother realize what a mistake this is just two minutes. I said drop the phone right now, Gabby. Just do what he says. But Gabby,

I didn’t, I didn’t want to hurt Lee. Okay. Just my, my heart belongs to Stephan. He’s the only person that’s ever understood me, the real me. Everything I am and love me for it, not in spite of it. So if you shoot him, then you have to shoot me too, Gabby. Yes, please. I cannot live without him. Okay. I can’t. I can’t.

So please, I’m telling you, please don’t do this. Please don’t. I’m sorry, but I have no choice.

What happened?

Mother,

you shot me.

There’s just so much blood. Um, it’s okay. Um. I’m, I’m gonna go get help. Just keep putting pressure on it. Okay. I’ll be back. Hang on.

Why haven’t I heard from Megan? Steph should be good and dead by now.

Kevin, what are you doing here? Are you supposed to be your engagement party? I was there. I was there, and then Harris Michael showed up and killed Stephan. Oh my God. He didn’t hurt you, did he? No. You must be devastated. I was at first. Then I realized, Harry said me a favor. Did you A, did you a favor? What do you mean?

I thought, I love Stephan. But now that he’s gone, I realize you’re the only man ever truly loved. Wait, wait, wait. Don’t you need time to mourn? I can mourn Stephan tomorrow to tonight. I want you to rish me.

Hurry home to me, Gabby. You gotta let me go. I get a job to do him sit. Michael said that Lee ordered him to kill Stephan. We suspected, uh, that Lee brainwashed him. Lee dammit saw Lee outside. He was staring up here. Yeah, I thought he was going to come up here and wreak havoc and make a fool of himself.

Obviously it was much worse.

Okay. Um, the paramedics are on their way. She’s still unconscious. Okay. Don’t give up hope. Okay. She’s soon gonna get the help she needs. Mm-hmm. Hey, You all right.

Okay. Let’s get you outta here. Let’s go. Come on. How were you thinking going after him? Like that you could have gotten yourself killed. No, he was trying to kill you. You and he’s, how about thank you for saving my life. You were amazingly brave. You’re my hero. You Thank you for saving my life. And you are amazingly brave, but please.

Don’t do something that reckless ever again. No. I had to stop him. I couldn’t lose you. Not again. It’s okay. It’s okay now. He tried to keep us apart again and he failed again. Nothing can separate us. You and I, were gonna get married. We’re gonna have a long, wonderful life together and Lee is gonna pay for this and so is everybody else who helped him out.

So Megan held you to prisoner this whole time evil sadistic bitch, but you texted me. No, no, I, I did not. How I wish I could have, it must have been Megan using my phone obviously. Well, that explains why you didn’t answer my calls,

ej. I, I thought you abandoned me and the baby. Nicole. Nicole, I will never abandon you. You and this baby mean everything to me. You hear me? Everything.

Did you meet with a specialist? I did. And. She thinks that I can carry this baby to term. Oh my God, that’s wonderful news. That’s wonderful news. After all these years, we’re finally going to have a child together.

Mm.

I feel so much better after that shower. It helped clear some of the fogginess outta my head. Hey Jay, we really should have a doctor take a look at you. I mean, Megan’s drugs could have some side effects. We will. But first I want to address the elephant in the room. What do you mean? I think you know, Eric, what about him?

What was he doing here? Well, trust me, he came over for a very good reason, and, and we will talk about that, just not now. Okay. The, but the point is it, it was a blessing in disguise because I got some cramping. He took me to the hospital and, and everything’s fine. Everything’s fine. But Eric wanted to stay because, well, you, you weren’t around so I disappeared.

You thought the worst of me, that I didn’t care about you all. Al child, and you turned to Eric. No, it’s not how it went. Ej, you know how I feel about you. Do I, I mean, a few weeks ago I told you that I love you and you, you haven’t set it back.

I know, and I’m sorry. And when I think about how Megan could have killed you, I realize that I,

I do. I I love you.

You look skeptical. I, I just feel like I might have talked you into saying that. No, I pressured you. I hate to No, you, you didn’t. I, I, I said it because I feel it. You are the father of my child and the man I wanna be with. And if you don’t believe me, And maybe this will convince you, oh, I’m here. Mm-hmm.

Yes. I, I would like to report a kidnapping. Uh, my brother and I, ugh, ugh. My wicked witch of a sister. Actually, no. I, I don’t remember how it happened. No, no, no, no. I’m not kidding. Why would I joke about something so serious? You know, I just, just hold on. I, my brother. DJ.

Well, so much for being boy’s hero. At least I got this lovely souvenir. Uh, I just wish those two bozos could remember what Megan and Dimitri are up to. So I could tell my poorly diluted BFF before it’s too late. She would dump that miserable SOB and never look back.

Dimitri. Yeah. How’s your mom? They managed to keep her stable in the ambulance, and then they just rushed her straight into surgery as soon as we got here. When she just, she, she looked so pale. She, she was so fragile. Listen to me. She cheated death once, didn’t she? Mm-hmm. She’s, she’s gonna do it again.

Thank you. Thank you for your support. I’m sure you want to get home and I, I totally understand Dave. No, no, I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here.

You have to let me go. It’s not gonna happen. I promise. Ray, if I’d look after you until back up. A squad car just pulled up. Police should be here any minute. I have a mission to complete. Michael’s the mission’s over. You failed

Dr. Ralphs handy work. Yeah, I’d bet. Good money on it. Poor guy. Can’t catch a break. First, he’s brainwashed by Megan. Now, lay shin.

I can’t believe my brother did something so crazy when I, uh, when I lost Chanel to my sister, I was so desperate to get her back. I almost did something very underhanded. Did you brainwash a Navy seal to kill Allie? No, of course not. You’re not a criminal heartless bastard with no conscience.

There’s no excuse for the horrible, unforgivable thing my brother did, none at all, and now he’s going have to face the consequences.

What are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be at your engagement party? I was there, but it ended early when Harris Michael showed up with a gun. What? Why? To kill Stephan. Oh my God, Gabby, I’m so sorry. Poor Stephan. I Lee. Don’t bury me just yet. Stephan. Thank God you’re okay. Drop the act. You son of a bitch.

I have to go. What? Act please. Chin. You go under arrest for the attempted murder of Stephan Damira.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Damn it.

Just not according to your plan.

You didn’t kill him, did you? Is he all right? Of course I didn’t kill him, but since he’s already broken free from your control once I had to administer an especially intense regimen, so you can rest Assured Commander Michaels will be doing only your bidding from now on. Are you sure that he’s ready for the job that I need him to do tonight?

Don’t you worry, this will be your brother Stefan’s last night on earth.

Like Sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Well, I am so glad that I ran into you both. Nice to meet you, and that I could extend the invitation. Oh. Like I said, it’ll be a little weird for me to be there since it’s almost Gabby’s sister-in-law, but I am really happy for her and for Stephan, so I’m glad that we can celebrate their engagement. Yeah.

Yeah, me too. Great. Very generous of you both. And it means a lot to my mother. She’s trying to do something nice for them, but, uh, well, to be honest with you, the attendance on the Demer side is looking a little thin. Well, we’ll help with that. The more the merrier. Right.

You’ll find out soon enough.

Ah. Thank you.

I hope you’re not planning on spending the evening drinking all night. That’s the current plan. Unless you can finagle me an invitation to the party or a press pass at least. I’m sorry, my darling lady whistleblower is just going to have to have the night off. Dimitri’s hoping for a very romantic evening and I don’t want you spoiling it.

Me spoil a good time. Never. I’m constitutionally incapable. No. Yes. I used to think that, but now I think you are constitutionally incapable of trusting anyone, giving anyone the benefit of the doubt. Oh, right. How disappointing that I don’t trust a guy who meets you beds, you and wants to put a ring on it in 24 hours.

Come on, Gwenny. Even I don’t move that fast. Okay, Matty, I hope you don’t take this the wrong way, but the past few months we’ve been commiserating. Have we not been losers in love and now my Prince charming has literally fallen into my lap while you are still a loser. No. I never said that. Oh, that’s what you meant.

No, it’s not. I’m just, I’m saying that while I’ve had this wonderful bit of luck, I know that you haven’t, and I’m wondering if perhaps you’re just a wee bit jealous.

Gwen Ek. Yikes. Scraping the bottom of the barrel. Are he? Oh, Chad Damara is gonna be there. Look at that. Well, at least a few Damara will be in attendance, huh? Yeah. Well, wife’s the only one from my side that’s coming and he’s so busy working Abe car’s space. He said he, he’s only gonna be able to stop by.

This probably gonna suck. No. Impossible. Yes. You’re gonna be there. I’m gonna be there. And I plan on having a grand old time celebrating us. Our love and the fact that you and I are suing the husband and wife again. You’re right. No, you’re right. Yes. Us being there together, that’s all that matters. That’s right.

No offense, but Nicole’s the least of our problems at this moment. Oh my God. I am starving. I’m starting to contemplate cannibalism. Well, I suppose that is the demure way. I can’t believe my sister did this to me.

Oh, and you, of course. I cannot think how this is gonna end. Okay, Emma, Kristen, don’t go there again. How can I not, how can I not? There’s no reason for her to keep us alive, is there.

He hardly looks like a man prepared to carry out an assassination. Later tonight. The procedure was taxing, but I’m confident. Commander Michaels, who will be ready. He better be father would roll over in his grave if Stephan handed his entire legacy to that conniving. Gabby Hernandez. Demira should be mine.

There’s only one fly in the ointment. Well, two actually. DJ and Kristen. I can hardly take out the entire family, but if I let them go, they’ll turn me into the authorities and they’ll ruin everything that I’ve planned. Don’t you have faith in me by now, Megan?

I know how to ensure that won’t happen.

Why on earth would I be jealous? Just because you’re being wooed and proposed to by a rich, gorgeous guy with a magic penis. Oh God sake, Matthew, we really going there again. You never denied he had one. That’s because you made a very stupid lewd joke, which I was trying to forget about, but since you won’t drop it, yes, Dimitri and I are quite compatible physically.

And also he has a magic penis. Oh God. Can you just stay on topic please? What was the topic again that you are for no apparent reason. Quite jealous and still very suspicious of Dimitri even though we have obviously ruled out that it’s not money or reputation laundering or, or he’s not marrying me for a green card.

So what are his ulterior motives? I mean, what other possible option is there? Health insurance. He’s from Europe. Health insurance is free, really, even for Botox and fillers. I’m pretty sure that you have to pay for that everywhere. But look, just consider this, will you? It could be quite simple for Dimitri that perhaps it was just not at first sight.

Hmm. I mean, you know that’s possible, don’t you? Even for friends. I knew that when I first saw you, I loved you and that I always would, fuck. I just made my heart go pitter powder. Yes. Well, I meant it.

Okay. Maybe you’re right. Uh, come again. Sorry. Do, do my ears deceive me. Did I actually just hear you say that I am right? No, I said maybe. And maybe I am a teensy bit jealous that you have found your prince charming, as you say, whereas nobody’s even flirted with me in the last millennium. Oh, come on.

That’s not true. And that’s how it feels. But petty jealousy aside, Lord, I am still certain that magic penis guy is up to something. Ah.

You’re right, of course. The more the merrier. See you at the bistro. Yes. Yes, we will. It should be a great celebration.

You know, I, I was surprised that, that we even wanted to go to the party. Well, Gabby is the closest thing I’ve ever had to a sister, and I don’t think she holds what happened between her and my brother against me, or even against him. I just, I think, I hope that she understands that Lee kind of lost his mind when Stephan came back.

Yeah. He knew he was gonna lose Gabby. Right. And so he did a lot of things. He regrets now. I mean, he was just trying so hard to hold onto her because he loved her so much.

Now I’m really glad he’s finally come to his senses and realized he has to move on.

Hey, you two. Hi. Hi. Hi. It’s good to see you. Hello. Overdressed for the pub though, aren’t you? Oh, no, we’re not. Uh, we’re not having dinner here tonight. We just wanted to stop by and see how you’re doing. Me too. Hey. I know you guys are close. I know, I, the, the whole thing is so terrible. I just, I mean, I still can’t believe it, you know, I just haven’t processed it really?

Yeah, we haven’t either. It’s just so awful and sad. Feels kind of wrong to be going to a party. Yeah. So Stefan and Gabby’s engagement party, I didn’t want to go, but, uh, you know, my sister Megan, she can be. Consistent. Megan, you know, I still don’t know why Megan was so Help Ben on throwing us this party.

Who cares? Party’s a party. True. I guess we could give her the benefit of the doubt. Assume she means well, I think she is capable of that as long as she’s not being a power hungry bitch on wheels. Right. Well, I guess I should get ready. Uh, you know, actually, I do need some help getting into my dress. Yeah.

Yeah. Mm-hmm. I’m your man.

Nicole, look at me. Look at me. Everything is gonna be okay. You’re not gonna lose this baby. You don’t know that Eric, Nicole, look, the, the cramps, they’re coming in less frequently. You’re not spotting, are you? All right, then well listen. You heard what the OB said. She said the most important thing for you and your baby’s health is just to try and relax.

Well, I can’t relax. I’ve been down this road too many times. This is nothing like what’s happened in the past. The cramps are coming in less frequently. You’re not spotting what? What is with that look? It’s just that you’re being so kind and and caring, and this isn’t even your baby. And after what happened with Jada, Eric, I, Hey, hey, hey, stop.

Listen to me. Don’t you know by now I care about you. Even with all the ups and downs that we’ve been through, I’m not going anywhere. Okay. I’m sorry that ejs not here for you right now, but I am.

I’m all for finding a way out of here, but it feels like we’ve tried everything. Got any new ideas? Well, if I had Susan’s teeth, I could knock through these ropes. Look. I don’t think we’re in imminent danger. If Megan wanted to kill us, she would’ve done it already. Well, maybe she is just waiting for the right time.

She has no qualms about killing Stephan. Why not us two?

CRS 17. Who’s a rescue? Oh, Ralph, you’re a genius. If Kristen and EJ can’t remember that I kidnapped them or admitted that I planned to kill Stephan, then I am free and clear. Can you make them forget that? And only that I’ve gotten a lot of practice with this drug in recent years. How much they forget is dosage dependent.

We should be able to wake out the last week or two with very little problem. Excellent. So I have a little bit of time before the party if you hand me that dose. I’ll take care of them on my way.

Now that is something to celebrate.

See you there, commander. You better not let me down this time.

Eric, I, I, I appreciate you being here for me, but it is a lot to ask. You didn’t ask. I still, I just, I, I just feel like, like, like what? Like I don’t deserve to be comforted. Like I’m being punished. Nicole, stop it. There’s a lot of things about my faith that I question. That’s not one of them. God doesn’t punish people by scaring ’em this way.

That’s not how it works.

Look, I’m gonna go see what’s keeping the dog there. All right? So I just want you to relax. I’ll be right back.

God,

don’t wait up. Okay. Gwynnie promise me this, if dreamy Dimitri pressures you to accept his proposal tonight, you will at least call me first. Why, so you can talk me out a bit? No. So you can see if I dug anything up. Oh God. Matty, please. Can you just give it a rest? I mean, whatcha are you gonna find in three hours anyway?

Are you kidding me? The next three hours are perfect for finding things out. All the de mirrors will be out tonight. It is the ideal time for me to swing by the mansion, nose around a bit, look for clues. Who knows? I may even get a story out of it. Oh yeah, you’ll definitely find clues. That place is murder mayhem central.

But if you are looking for dimitri’s ulterior motive, it doesn’t matter how hard you look. Because there isn’t one We’ll see about that. I can’t possibly suck in any more than this. No, that’s, that’s not the problem. I just can’t get it up. Well, I beg to differ. I, I’m talking about the zipper. Right? And you know what, maybe, maybe this is a sign.

A sign meaning, meaning that, uh, maybe instead of. Putting clothes on. You should be taking clothes off. I like the way things, yeah,

don’t worry about Kate. I’ll take care of her next. I just wanna make certain, none of this will be traced back to us, but stop worrying. Lee. Commander Michaels is firmly back on my team. So he’ll take Stefan out at the party tonight and then you’ll be free to move on with Gabby and we’ll both get what we want.

Pleasure doing business with you.

Hey This’s, your uh, brother. Hey Lee. Hey, I see Case you never dress up. Oh, we got a last minute invite to a party, not Gabby and Stephan’s engagement party. Well, yes, as a matter of fact, no, I I don’t want you to go.

Wait, what did, what did you just say about Megan? Just that she insisted that, um, that we go to that, uh, a party. And I, I still hate her for what she did do. In fact, out of all the people that are gonna be there, I hate 90% of them, but 90% of the time. Okay. Yeah. I just, when exactly did she, um, send that invitation?

Oh, a little while ago. Why is something wrong, wrong? No, no. I, I just tried to avoid her at all costs. Well, then I’d stay away from the bistro for the next few hours cause she’s hosting. If you want, we can give her your fondest regards. Hmm.

Don’t look at me like that father. I’m only doing what’s best for the entire family. And as for Stephan, you never even knew he existed. And honestly, I don’t think you would’ve liked him very much. Oh, he’s so easily manipulated by that woman. Very weak. No, I don’t think you’ll be shedding any tears over this.

Whatever you are,

mother, what are you doing?

Kate, are you sure? You’re all right? No, I’m fine. I’m fine. I just, uh, I just despise the woman, you know, not to mention her son. They deviance both of them. I’m really sorry for what they put you through. Hello? It’s all over now. Nice to you. In fact, I wouldn’t be here now if it wasn’t for you. I’m damn grateful You are.

Okay. Uter, you have a party to go to, right? Yeah. We should go. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Sooner we get there the sooner we can leave. Mm-hmm. Right. We’ll have fun, okay? Okay. It’s gonna be lit. No, you take care, Kate. Yeah, you too.

Finally changed your ringtone, huh? Yeah. What You’re not gonna answer. It is just spam. Probably someone wanting to offer me an extended auto warranty. Yeah, dude, I, I get those all the time. Right. Well, you were just about to tell us why don’t you want us to go to the party? What I should think it’d be obvious, Stephan humiliating me of me to be brutally honest.

It’s very embarrassing,

but if you really want to go, I know you’re very fond of Gabby, so Yeah, we are. Just promise me that you’ll watch your back. You never know what can happen in a room full of Demaris. No offense not taken. I know exactly what you mean.

Mm-hmm. Thank you. Stuck zipper. Thank you. But you know, we better get, move on or we’re gonna be late to a party. Or maybe, and I’m just spit balling here. Maybe we don’t go, you know, everybody else is sent along their regrets. Maybe we should do the same.

Oh, I was just going down to get a few bottles of Christophe for the party tonight, huh? Well, it’d also been up to, I’ve texted about a dozen times. I know, sweetheart, I’m sorry. I’ve just been so busy planning everything for the party. There’s so many little details, but tell me. Has she accepted your proposal?

No, not yet. Only because we have been rudely interrupted by her Weasley, overprotective little roommate. Damn it. She needs to accept that proposal. Yes, I know mother, but she has agreed to come to the party tonight and I’m sure that all of this engagement, excitement will be contagious. I am very confident that I’ll be able to persuade her to accept this evening.

You’d better be confident. I’m sure I don’t need to remind you about the small fortune that’s ATS stake. Mother, you really don’t.

I’ll see you there tonight. Can’t wait.

Well,

well, uh, the doctor said that the baby’s fine. That’s great. So what caused the cramps? Uh, something called round ligament pain. I, I don’t know, I, I’ve never heard of it before, but apparently it’s normal, so I, I just need to take it easy. Stay hydrated, and now I just, You like an idiot, Nicole, you’re not an idiot.

Oh God. God, of course you panicked. You’ve had a rough history with things like this in the past. Just I’m relieved that the baby’s okay.

You and me both. I’m sure you’re just gonna feel the same way when he gets back from wherever he’s

well. I’d be an idiot if I wasn’t a little worried about what made my do to us since she’s already done this, but I’m much more worried about what she might have already done to Stephan. Relax. I haven’t done anything to Stephan, thank God. But now that I have all my duckies in a row, He’ll be dead within the hour.

Please look at you would’ve been a crappy idea to skip our engagement party. Uh, you’re right. I mean, yeah. This is the best of both worlds. We get to sip on some champagne, those yummy puff pastries, hang out with, uh, all these people that we love, fawning all over us, pretending to like us, and then we get to go home and spend the rest of the night in bed together.

Oh, I love that last part. Me too. Definitely. Hello? Oh, hello Lee. I just, uh, ran into my sister and she said she’s on her way to your engagement party. I’d like to offer my congratulations. Thank you, Lee. That’s very kind of you. Well, I just want Gabby to be happy. I want the same for you, Lee. You all right?

Apart from the obvious weirdness seem a little edgy. Who, uh, me? No, not, not at all. I just hope that your evening is every bit as lovely as you deserve it to be.

I just heard Megan throwing a party tonight. How is that possible? You said she was taken care of. Now I’m not sure what’s going on, so I guess I’m going to my own eyes.

Hope you don’t get caught in a crossfire, Kate.

What do you mean? Stephan will be dead within the hour? Exactly what I said. I am throwing an engagement party for Stephan and Gabby tonight, and this is the exciting part. Dr. Rolfe has worked his magic on my man. Commander Harris. Michaels. Wait. Dr. Rolls is back. Oh, keep up. Ej. Yes, he’s back. And so tonight, commander Michaels Navy Seal and MAL trained assassin is gonna do the deed and kill Stephan in front of all of his friends and family gathered, except for you two Of course.

Oh, Kristen, you’re such a drama queen. No, of course not. I’m not gonna kill the two of you. I don’t think father would be very happy about that. Megan, listen. Listen, if you, if you let us go, we swear, sorry, that we will not implicate. You will say nothing about any of this, right? And your word is your bond, isn’t it?

What the hell is that? CRS 17. Ring any bells? Ralph tried to inject your son with it in Jakarta to raise his memory. Good boy, you do remember, but you won’t soon. Now, don’t worry. As soon as this drug takes full effect, I’ll be back for you. Okay? So listen. Let’s just try and make this as quick and easy as possible.

Okay.

I’m in the mansion. I walked right in through an unlocked door. Apparently Damira security is at Mar-a-Lago levels. Probably shouldn’t print that for the world to see. Dateline 6:00 PM I couldn’t overhear the conversation between Count Dracula and his creepy mother, but given how shocked Megan was when I came through at the tunnels the other day, I am certain they’re hiding something down there.

And I will bet whatever it is, will shed some light on how those two are conspiring to screw over. My best friend.

Hey. Hey, uncle Chad. Oh my God, thank God. Actually, would you, Mike? Yeah. Family member. I actually know. And Blake? Yeah. Back at you. Uh, do you guys know Wendy? Oh, we haven’t met yet, but I have heard a lot about you from trip. Oh. Oh, don’t worry. It’s all good. Um, in fact, what, um, he mentioned that you two might be dating, but nevermind obviously, um, given that you two are on a date right now, I shouldn’t have said No, no, no, no.

It’s okay. Uh, actually trip and I. We did have a date earlier today, so we’re, we’re calling, uh, just to be, we’re calling this a date, no? Yep. Uh, none of our business. Um, Wendy, Johnny, I hope you have a fun night. Yeah. Good evening everyone. Have you all met Gwen Rizek? Yeah, we’ve met. Not only is she my beautiful date for the evening, but I’m also hoping that tonight she might do me the honor of accepting my wedding proposal.

No, sorry, what? Did you guys know each other from Europe? No, actually we didn’t, Tim. Well, Yes, it is true Gwen and I just recently met, but, uh, we both agree that we share a very deep connection on, on many levels and hope that you all can be happy for us. I guess not. Mm-hmm. It’s all right, Dimitri. We don’t need anyone’s approval, do we?

Oh, good. Because, um, we’re not gonna get it from me.

Look, everyone, for people who hate us and each other there, you see, I told you we should have stayed home. Hmm.

Ah, command Michaels. You’re back, sir. What’s going on? You have a very important mission to carry out. Do you remember what.

Oh my goodness. I’m over here. Right here. Okay. Sit down. Thank you. Yeah. And comfy? Yes. All right. Um. I’m gonna get you some water or some, would you like some soup, baby? Don’t go

listen, I, I just wanna say I know it, it must have been difficult for you to be in the hospital with me and I just want you to know it means a lot. I’m just glad I could be there for you. Not as glad as I am.

Damn it should. I’m slipping away by now. My, my memories. I’m trying, but I can’t do it. I can’t hold me neither. Oh my God. How, how, how do we help Stephan now? Oh,

OMG guys. Wtf.

Oh. Cue face, Megan. Hello Kate. Lovely to see you. Do I smell fish? I can’t believe it. Sorry. I’d love to stay in chat, but I’m late for a very important date. Mission accomplished my ass.

How’s it going? It is, as I said, it would be. Commander Michaels is like a heat seeking missile singularly focused on destroying his target, but only the target. My sister at that party press assured my boy Michaels is programmed only to harm. Stephan

keep thinking though, won’t everyone suspect Megan immediately? I mean, she brainwashed Michaels before, so yes, I took care of that. I just hope you didn’t let him go before he was fully ready. Remember the disaster was Stephan. Rest assured my boy. My work may be experimental in nature, but the procedure is complete when you will be a happy beneficiary.

Yes, yes. Steph will be gone. Gabby will be mine again, and this time my hands will be completely clean. Hey, where is the host? I mean, people are starting to get a little restless honored. Guests welcome now. Please accept my apologies for the delay in order to make this a really special night tonight. I had to bring a bottle of my father’s very favorite champagne.

Just took me a little longer to get it than I expected, but I’m here now and I’m so glad that you are all here too, because there is nothing in this world more important than family is there. I am so grateful. But you have all welcomed me back into your bosom,

and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host this lovely gathering for my newfound brother and his gorgeous bride to be. And I just know that father is smiling down on us now. Happy to see us all together again. Whoa. At least most of us. Yeah, very few of us. And yes, I know that we have our differences, but we overcome them, don’t we?

That’s what families do. Well, normal families like yours. My sister Megan, she’s an assassin. Thomas Banks had to kill us, so all those things are a little bit hard to overcome. Mm-hmm. I am so sorry for all of the lost years that we could have spent together, but I look forward to the many, many happy years to come.

And now I want everyone to grab a glass of champagne so we can toast the happy couple, the lovely Gabriela and my charming brother Stephan. Oh my God. Paris Michaels. What the hell are you doing here?

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Dad, I’m, I’m so sorry to hear about Abe. I know how much you, and you and Kayla loved him.

Yeah. I mean, he was pretty much family for most of the town.

Eric, what are you doing here? I wanted to come see you as soon as I heard about Abe. What about Abe?

You hardly touched your burger friend. That’s unusual for you. Yeah. That kind have a big lunch. Is it that, or is it because you had that run-in, in front of the pub, finding out that Gwen’s getting married? That was a bit of a shock. Do you wanna talk about it?

Do you are asking me to marry you officially? Okay. What the hell kind of proposal was that? What was wrong with it? For starters, I don’t see a ring, and I have a rule. If a man isn’t willing to go down on bended knee, he is not a man worth marrying. You know what stuck? You are absolutely right. Forgive me Gwen, let me do this the proper way.

Oh wow. That is a, that’s a large diamond. That is a very, very large diamond. Now allow me a second chance, Gwen Sek, who you do me the great honor of becoming my wife. The answer is a hard no.

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

God’s sake, mate. Okay? That thing is huge. The ring, I mean, but I’m sorry, Freo, you’ve wasted the money you worked so hard to inherit because there is no way Gwen is accepting your proposal. Damn it. Matt. How do you say? Hell no. And Almanian, you are aware that I’m proposing to Gwen and not you. So Gwen, what do you say?

Well, well, Gwenny, before you answer that, I have a question of my own that needs answering. Like what? Like what the hell is actually happening here?

When’s getting married to some eurotrash phony? What is it to talk about? Just like that my appetite came back. You know, you don’t have to pretend like you don’t care about her. Chloe, I only care about her because when we were together I ended up really hurting her. I feel good about that. In spite of everything she’s done, Gwen has been through a lot.

She deserves some happiness. And you don’t think the man she’s mirroring can give her that they’ve known each other for all of five seconds? I mean, how can it possibly work out? It’s all too fast. Did you tell Gwen that? I haven’t talked about it. She and I are hardly on good terms. I told him if you done anything to her, Gwen, you’ll answer to me.

So you’re still very protective of her. Gwen’s a grown woman. She can make her own decisions. I just, I don’t want her to make one that she’ll end up regretting for the rest of her life.

If you are here to try and convince me to change my plea, save your breath. I’m gonna take my chance at trial as your lawyer. I’m well aware of your position, so this is just a sisterly visit. Then I came to give you some news. Abe Carver is dead.

Abe is,

he’s dead. They haven’t recovered his body yet, but they have a witness who said he saw hate fall off the docks of the water. Okay. Well, he, he could have survived that, right? It’s very unlikely they said he could have already been injured. Raven and Eli said they found his blood and a hospital bracelet at the scene.

No way. Bye. I can’t, I can’t, I can’t believe this. I, I mean, I, I knew it was a possibility when he went missing, but, but still, I, I didn’t, I didn’t let myself think that I, I’m so sorry, Nicole. I just, I thought you knew.

He, you be, I, I, I, I mean, I, I can’t, I can’t believe this. To be true because he, he was the dearest est man. I He loved you so much. Yeah.

And having him in my life meant so much to me. I, I mean, having someone in, in, in my corner no matter what, and even when I felt all alone, I always, always had Abe.

And no matter how much I disappointed him through the years, he never judged me because you are like a daughtered him. Oh my god.

What am I gonna do without him?

Oh God.

So awful about Abe and the way that he died. Yeah. Such a tragedy. And I feel so bad for his family, my dad and Kayla,

I’m glad to be here with you.

I’m glad to. And thank you for a wonderful dinner. Oh no, this is just fish tacos. Uh, no, just fish tacos is something you get at your local fast food chain. Okay? What you put on this plate made me feel like I was sitting on a cliff overlooking a beach in Mexico. Well, no think you’re not. Maybe not a little thick, but I’ll take it.

Who knows? Maybe we’ll uh, go there together for real sometime. I’d like that. But for now, this, uh, this date was a pretty good placeholder

one. I was just wondering if, uh, to be wrong, to revisit that goodnight kiss. When they got interrupted, you mean when Johnny called to cancel our date? Yeah, that’s what I mean. So what do you think?

I think it would not be wrong at all.

So on a scale of one to 10, Sorry, what? On a scale of one to 10, how worried do I have to be about how protective you are of your ex? Wait, do you really want a number? Well, I’ve spent a good portion of my life in romantic relationships with men who are, um, unavailable or conflicted, or just a plain hot mess.

So I figure we should just get it all out onto the table. Chloe, you should not worry about me and Gwen. So is that a one? It’s a zero. Look, I admit I was thrown to find out that she’s getting married, but no, I’m totally over, Gwen. Okay, that’s, that’s good to hear. However, in the spirit of. Total honesty. I should admit that maybe Sarah will always be the one that got away,

and I will always think of him as a father no matter how long ago things ended with him and mom. Yeah, you too. And we’ll, we’ll video chat later. Okay. I love you too, Brandon.

You already knew about Abe. Theo told him, oh, I can’t imagine what he must be feeling right now. I should check on him. Yeah, I think you should be with your family. Just let me know if you need anything because you’ll be there for me. Thank you for checking on me. It means a lot. Actually it was Sloan’s idea Sloan.

She and I were together when I found out. I just, I mentioned how close you and Abe were and so said I needed to come see you right away. Oh, no, that was nice of her. Maybe she does have a heart, but you probably already knew that since you’re trying to have a baby with her.

No, that, that is the best news I’ve heard all day, Colin, a man is dead. And, and that’s, that’s tragic. I mean, I, I guess I, I didn’t have anything personal against Abe Carver. Uh, you bashed his skull and with a rolling pin in the wrong place, wrong time. And honestly, he was asking for it by marrying into the family that destroyed ours and continuing to support Chanel and their mother after we’d found out what they’d done.

So that makes you happy. I’m all for anything that causes Chanel, Dupree and Pauline and Price to suffer, and now they know what it feels like to lose someone you love. Dammit, Colin, I’m not gonna sit here while you dance on the man’s grave. I’m sorry. I forgot you had an epiphany and decided they’re always forgiven.

They’re on the path to righteousness. Oh goodness. And life

Sloan. Where, where did you go? What are you thinking about? No, I just said, um, I’m, uh, I’m not, All goodness and light at all. Actually, I’m a complete hypocrite.

You don’t have to answer him, Dimitri. Oh, no, no. It’s all right. You’re a friend. Well, he has doubts about my intentions, and I’m willing to address those doubts. Very unconvincingly, I’m sure. Oh, whether you’re convinced or not, Maddie. But, uh, today you don’t get to call me that. Only GW gets to call me. That fine Leo.

The truth of the matter is that I have fallen head over heels in love with this glorious woman, and I wanna marry her because she’s the most interesting and utterly captivating creature that I have ever met. And nothing will make me happier than knowing that she is mine forever and ever, and ever and always.

That’s you addressing my doubts. By laying on the schmalz with a trowel, how gullible do you think we are? Hey, what? What? Hey, look, as someone who knows a thing or two about laying on the schmalz and almost always has an ulterior motive, I could smell this man’s ulterior von Motive from a kilometer away.

Yes. Hello, mother. It’s your son, Dimitri, yet again. Yeah, I think it’s a little odd that for the last month you have done nothing but nonstop nag for me to bag a wife so that you get your hands on this funnel, your fortune, and you will not answer my calls or call me back to tell you exactly what it is that you want to hear.

I asked the risk check woman to marry me. She hasn’t accepted the proposal quite yet, but let’s just say I am very confident that you will. Leo, it is clear that you are a loyal and devoted friend of Gwen’s, and I’m sure it hasn’t been easy having to watch over the years as various men of questionable character have caused her pain.

Yep. Just like the man of questionable character standing right in front of me. But what you don’t realize is that you and I we’re not enemies. We are allies because we want the same exact thing. Oh, please. And that is to see. This rare and, and wondrous woman whom we both love, happy and safe. Now, there is nothing in this world that I want more than to marry you, Gwen.

But if you can’t find it within your heart to grant us your blessing, well then I will withdraw my proposal once.

I realize that you were just trying to get Matty to stop being an absolutely royal pain in the ass, but, um, I will have, you know that I do not need his or any man’s blessing to marry you. Now, yes, of course. I, I didn’t mean to offend you, but it’s just that I know how close you and Leo are, and I would hate to ever put you in the position of having to choose between me and your friend because you know damn well that she would choose me.

Nabi, please stop it, Leo. Now I know that this is all happening very fast. What is, you mean you suddenly getting physical with me and staring into my eyes? No, I mean, somebody falling in love with your BFF and proposing to her. Oh that. Mm-hmm. And if Gwen does decide to be my bride, do you think you could reserve judgment and allow me the opportunity of finally giving her the happiness that she’s earned?

So do you need a number for how worried you should be about me and Sarah? Huh? No. You’ve always been honest with me about her. Just like you’ve always been honest with me about your feelings for Brady. Which is why we’ve been taking it slow. And slow is good, right? Yeah, it is. Uh, it was, but uh, I wanna move on.

That’s fair. I mean, I know what’s going on between us. It’s brand new, but I, it just feels right. It does to me too. I’m so glad to hear you say that. Actually, I was just talking to Nicole about this, huh? Well, I bet she was thrilled. Oh yeah. Really thrilled. Yeah. No, not at all. But I did tell her that even though she’s one of my best friends, she is.

Not gonna talk me out of exploring things with you. So she agreed to back off? No, not at all. But we did talk. She asked me questions, she gave me her opinions. And um, you know, we talked about you like any other relationship, and I feel like that’s a semblance of acceptance. My resignation. What does she ask?

You know, the usual. Okay. Like one of the first things she asked was whether we had slept together. And what did you tell her? I was vague. I’m a lady. I do not kiss and tell. That’s good to know. Wait, does that mean that you’re not gonna tell her about this?

I’ll go get rid of.

So tell how are you a Hypocrites loan?

Come on. You know, you can tell me anything.

I did something that might really hurt Eric. Let me guess. You were screwing around. What’s, no. Why would you say that? Because I know you and I know you’re not exactly a one man kind of girl. Yeah, it was with Eric. It’s different. He’s, he’s just not like any of the other guys I’ve been with. So you finally found someone you’re serious about.

Yeah. I love him. And now you are worried that you’ve done something that’s gonna come between you. How bad boy is it? Oh, it doesn’t. It doesn’t matter. Simon, come on. Your boyfriend would be the first one to tell you that confession is good for this whole. So tell Brother Colin, how are you sinned against Eric?

Eric’s ex-wife? Nicole Walker is pregnant and the child could be his.

I know you think my relationship with Sloan is a bad idea. No, stop. Sorry. I am sorry, I, you don’t owe me an explanation. Well, it seems like you need one. Well, I,

I was just thrown off guard when Sloan blurted out that you two were trying to have a baby. Okay. Was, I mean, was she just trying to get a rise outta me? No, I think it’s more than that. I think she’s excited about the idea.

Okay, well, having a baby, was it saloon’s idea? We came to it together. Slung saw, she saw how disappointed I was when we found out the baby was DJ’s.

You were I, I mean, uh, I know that you’ve always wanted to be a father. I just wasn’t sure, especially since we both know how complicated this would’ve been, right? But I know somehow we would’ve made it work.

Have to admit a part of me was hope, hoping that baby was mine.

Oh, ah, are you all right?

Oh,

So, so you’re telling me that this Nicole woman is pregnant with your boyfriend’s baby and she doesn’t know that it’s his, I said it might be his, it could still be EJ Damir, right? Because neither of them were actually tested. I swabbed my own cheek and that’s what the lab got sent. Interesting. So the only thing that we do know is that.

You are not the father of this child. I’m glad you find this so amusing. Come what you want me to feel? Sorry for you? You got what you wanted then you, Eric, is free to be with you. Yeah, but I feel terrible about it. Not terrible enough to tell the truth. Look, when I found out that Nicole was pregnant, I started thinking about everyone I’ve lost.

Mom, dad, and now you. I’m right here. For how long, Colin? You’re going away to prison. We see. Anyway, the point is, is I was terrified of losing Eric to Nicole cuz if he finds out that she’s carrying his child, then missed, a good guy will go running him back to her. Eric’s always wanted to be a father and he and Nicole have like just decades of history, so it’s bad.

So what you were doing was leveling the playing field. You did what you had to do to hold onto someone you love. There’s no shame in that. Sloan. Oh, there’s shame and deception, Colin. Just let it go. Enjoy the victory after everything that we’ve lost. You deserve a win. Yeah, I suppose I do. Just trying to make up for what I did.

You mean for taking away a baby from Eric? That might be his. And how are you gonna make up for that? By giving him a baby that we know for sure is his.

Oh, yeah. Okay. It’s, it’s gone. Are you sure you’re okay? You know what, I don’t, I don’t know what the pain was, but it’s passed. Well, do you want to go get it checked out? Oh. No, it was probably the peanut butter and onion sandwich I had for lunch. And the butter and onion. Yeah, with a cinnamon raisin bagel.

Oh, that sounds delicious. I know. Gray beans. I would explain it. Yeah. Ow. I’m gonna go find ej. No, no, no. You’re not gonna find him. Why? Well, he’s hasn’t been here for a while. That’s why I was so upset when he came in earlier. Where is he? I dunno. He went away on a last minute business trip and I haven’t heard from him since.

He hasn’t called, well he sent the occasional text. Where is he? Did he say when he was coming back? No. What the hell is he up to? Is he bailing out on you in this pregnancy? You know what, I don’t. I don’t wanna talk about it. Okay. Oh God. I’m taking you to the hospital. Come on.

Oh,

so not so long ago you wanted my head on a spike. Now you want my blessing to marry Gwen. Not to mention you’re warming up my shoulders. I was rightfully upset with you for costing me that emerald. But things have changed now. Gwen is the only treasure that matters to me. Oh, well that is awfully sweet, isn’t it?

Leo, in a dime store Saccharin kind of way. Aaliyah, please can we put our differences behind us? You’re clearly very important to the woman that I love and therefore, Very important to me. Okay, fine. Fine. You said all the right things, albeit in a very insincere way. So it all rang hollow, but maybe that is me just being overly cynical and mistrustful because my parents treated me like crap.

Consequently, I have never felt respected. Love didn’t have serious self-esteem issues. Oh, for God’s sake. Dimitri’s not your shrink, Matty. Well, forgive me for being open, honest, and authentic. And if Gwen had, let me finish, what I was going to say was,

I will allow this marriage against my better judgment. Wow. Wow. How very generous of you. Indeed. Thank you very much for your grudging permission, Matty. And might I remind you both that I have not given Dimitri Nancy yet, and given that you two have now kissed and made up, you know what? Maybe you two should just ride off into the sunset together.

You know what? I’m pretty sure that we are the better couple now, Gwen, I love you. I love you so much, but you don’t have to answer me right now. Tonight my mother is throwing an engagement party for another happy couple. My Uncle Stephan and his Gabriela, and nothing would make me happier than having you there on my arm.

Who knows? Maybe the romantic occasion will inspire you to accept this ring.

Johnny, I I thought you were staying with Chanel. Yeah, yeah. No, uh, Paulina came home, so I, I left to give him some privacy. How are Chanel doing? Not great. It’s a terrible loss for, for all of them. For, yeah. I’m so sorry for what they’re going through. Me too. Uh, but look, I was, uh, I was hoping that maybe you and I could still go out, grab some dinner, maybe catch a late movie I already ate.

I made fish tacos. Yeah. Oh, oh, I’m, I’m sorry. Was I, uh, was I interrupting something? Actually, you were, when you called and canceled. I made plans with Trip. Well, I better just, uh, leave you to him then. Great, great. What, what is it? Dr. Sitz has the flu. I had to go cover her shift. Like I, I really don’t wanna leave.

I had a really great time tonight. Me too.

Maybe tomorrow we can pick up where we left off Maybe. Johnny,

good luck.

Well, uh, it seems like you’re available tonight after all. Look, I know trip made dinner, so, uh, What do you say about getting some dessert?

So,

uh, Still wanna take things slow. Well, like you said, this feels right. It does. But I can see where this is going and I just, I don’t wanna rush you. Sorry. Do you wanna wait? Not even a little bit.

Whoa. What are you doing? Oh, I’m sorry. Did you wanna take my shirt off? No, I just went, why here? Uh, do you want her first time to be on the couch? No, I don’t. So, uh, you bed online.

Yes. Yes. Does that mean No. No. Wait, now I’m lost. As am I? Yes. To the party pause on the marriage proposal. Fair enough. I’m sorry if that disappoints you. Knowing that we’ll be together this evening, how can I possibly be disappointed and who knows? Sometime soon we’ll be together. Every evening,

get a room. You two just left this one.

Oh, what’s going on there, buddy? Oh, what? We asked for three scoops. I know you ordered, uh, strawberry, which whatever. I ordered chocolate because I’m not a monster. And the cookies and cream in the middle, we’re supposed to be sharing. Okay. Mm-hmm. I admit the sharing gene doesn’t exactly run in my family, but I could learn, are you sacrificing your cherry?

Well, that’s not much. I like you. And for the record, this is my first bite of cookies and cream. I won’t go beyond my half. Oh, you better not. I’m watching you Damara. Right. I got your shit.

Uh, trip. Hey, hey, hey guys. What’s going on, Nicole? She needs to doctor right away. What’s wrong? Uh, uh, I’m two months pregnant and I, I have a siring pain right here. I have a history of miscarriages. And this is a high risk pregnancy. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Look, Let’s get you to an exam room. Uh, see what’s happening tomorrow this way.

Okay. We didn’t, we didn’t make it very far. I’m working on it far to either bedroom. Sorry. I’m. Kind of eager. Okay. E eager is good. So your room, I didn’t make my bed and my room is super messy. Okay, well then let’s go make a mess of mine.

What do you think? I think Count Chola doesn’t deserve you looking that hot tonight. Come on. I thought you were gonna give him a chance. I am. I will. I But Gwynnie, I’ve said it before. It bears repeating. I just want you to be happy. Thank you, Matt. But listen, if anything juicy happens at the party tonight, I promise I will.

Text Lady Whistleblower post taste. You better.

Oh, I hope this one works out for me, buddy, because usually when a guy seems too good to be true, he’s no good at he coming.

Well, well, well, if it isn’t my favorite young cousin, oh, well, I am flattered Wendy Shin. This is my cousin who I just found out I had Dimitri Vaughn Locher. Nice to meet you. My pleasure is all mine. Looks like you’ve made some damage out of that Sunday. We’re on a date hoping for a little alone time.

Johnny. What we’re family, right. We can be honest with each other. Of course. I was just stopping by to see if you were coming to the party and what, what party might that be? The engagement party that my mother is throwing for your Uncle Stephan and Gabby Hernandez. It’s just at the bistro. Oh, well that sounds great.

But our plans are, I love a party. Do you wanna go? Sure. I mean, it might be a little weird since I was almost Gabby’s sister-in-law. Oh. But, um, I really like her and I’m glad that she’s marrying the man she loves. Wonderful. Hmm. Well, I guess that settles it We’ll, uh, see you at the party.

So wait, you, you are trying to have a baby with Eric just to hold onto him. That seems a bit desperate. That is not what I am doing. Are you sure? I love Eric and I feel guilty about costing him the chance to be a dad even though you are not sure that Nicole’s baby is actually his right. I. No. I mean, odds are it’s e J’s baby.

I mean, those two are actually together, you know? And Eric and Nicole, they hooked up once when they were both highest kites. But anyway, the point is, is that Eric desperately wants to be a father and you wanna be a mother. Yeah. You and I are. All our family has left. Of course. I want our family to grow, and if Eric is the father, then my.

Son or my daughter, she has a real chance at being happy,

and I hope it happens. I hope you have Eric’s baby and. Nicole’s baby isn’t his. Either way, I’ve fixed it so that neither Nicole or Eric or anyone else will ever know

your vitals all look good. Uh, but we should get some blood work in the sonogram, see what’s going on with the pregnancy. I’m gonna step out and find the be on call. So sit tight. Okay? Okay, thanks. Hang in there. Thanks.

I think the trip assumes that I’m the, oh, it’s that it doesn’t matter, right? What matters is that I’m here for you. The baby.

Thank you Eric for being here. I, I don’t know what I would do if I was alone right now. You don’t need to worry about that.

Wow. Well, so much for taking it slow. I can honestly say no. I don’t have a single regret about anything, just.

Do you? Maybe we should do it again and find out.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey, I’m glad I caught you. It’s me. Perfect timing. I just got home from work. Nice. Um, well I was just wondering if you had any plans for tonight? Not so far. Why? I thought I’d take you to dinner. Dinner tonight.

Yeah. Hey. Oh, I’m so glad you’re home. I just got back from court where I gave an hour long summation and three inch heels. Maybe you should take them off. I can’t wait. But the worst part about the summation was that the whole time my mind kept wandering really,

I kept thinking about you really, really?

And you know what I was thinking when I was thinking about you? What’s that?

How I can’t wait to make you a father.

Hi, Pedro. It’s, it’s me again. I, I was just wondering if he just checked in and told you when he might be back. Okay. Thank you. Knock, knock. Hey. Oh, Harold, let me, Chloe, this is such a nice surprise. It was good to see you. You too. I know that you had that appointment with a specialist yesterday. I wanted to know how it went.

Um, pretty well. I mean that the doctor thinks that I can carry this baby to term. That’s great news. Yeah. Nicole, I’m sure you and EJ are just thrilled. Well, I am, uh, I don’t know about ej. What’s that supposed to mean? I, I don’t know. I, I, I haven’t talked to him for days. It’s like he’s fallen off the face of the earth.

Yes. Hello mother. It’s your son, Dimitri, yet again? Yeah, I think it’s a little odd that for the last month you have done nothing but nonstop nag for me to bag a wife so that you get your hands on this funnel, your fortune, and you will not answer my calls or call me back to tell you exactly what it is that you want to hear.

I asked the risk check woman to marry me. She hasn’t accepted the proposal quite yet, but let’s just say I am very confident that she will.

Where’d you get those? The front desk. Apparently they were sent to our room. Now let’s find out which of my many suitors is trying to rekindle my flame. Oh, they’re for you. For me. From who? From whom? Kale Surprise or from Dimitri. Hoping these will inspire you to contemplate my proposal. Anxiously awaiting your answer, Dimitri Ha.

Fat chance dude, like you would consider marrying that guy. Actually, I am considering it.

Like Sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

So mother, if you give a damn at all about your son’s future, please give him a call back. Hey, uh, wait a minute. Are you Dimitri Von Weisner? I am. And you are Son Cook. Okay. I’ve never heard of you. I co-own the Spectator with Gwen Risk check. Couldn’t help but overhear your phone call just then. So you listened in on a private call.

Well, I listened in when I heard you say the word, a risk check, unusual name caught my attention. It was still a private call. Well, I only caught the tail end. You know the part where you said that you asked her to marry you.

You’re seriously considering marrying that tectonic twat. You don’t even know him. Well, I know him well enough in the biblical sense. You slept with him once and now you’re thinking of tying the knot. What does he have a magic penis? Well, it didn’t pull a rabbit out of a hand. Okay, then if he isn’t David Copperfield of the bedroom, why would you even think about marrying this guy?

Yeah, I’d love to have dinner with you. But I do need some time to get ready. Okay. Well, what do you say? I pick you up in one hour. Perfect. See you then.

Hey, Chanel, what’s the matter? It’s, it’s, Is he still missing? No, he’s, he’s dead.

You asked Gwen to marry you. You, you barely know her. She only interviewed you once. Oh, well it was an in-depth interview. You called her that risk check woman. Yes. If I’d called her my darling dearest Gwen, my mother would’ve no idea who I was talking about. Ah, and you seem to be more interested in my affairs to call than my own mother.

No contrary more to me. I don’t give a damn about you all your affairs. It’s Gwen. I’m worried about, obviously, and my question to you is, Mr. Cook, why do you care who Gwen marries?

I don’t understand why it’s considered to be so crazy to want to marry an attractive man. He finds me interesting and he, he wants to spend time with me. I’m an attractive man. I find you interesting. I wanna spend time with you, but I don’t think you should marry me. Yes, Matty. Dimitri and I don’t sit around gossiping about fashion and Harry styles tattoos, and how long have I been saying I need to just get over Sandra and finally move on with my life?

Well, it’s one thing to sleep with someone on the rebound, even to have a rebound thing, but you can’t have a rebound marriage. This is not a rebound. And the reason why I took so long to get over Xander is because I’ve just been waiting for the right man to just come along. And you think Hare Dimitri, who you’ve known for a nanosecond, is the right guy?

He might be. He, I mean, he takes all the boxes off, doesn’t he? He’s tall, he’s rich. He’s, he’s really handsome and he’s so romantic. I. He’s so romantic and after all, my beyond dysfunctional relationships, I have to say, it’s really nice to be the one being pursued like Katniss in the Hunger Games. I haven’t seen that, so I don’t understand the joke and I don’t plan to anyway.

God bloody hell, Matty look after the way I grew up and you know that. That’s why I’ve always thought that there was something wrong with me, and Dimitri understands that. Because he lived that as well and he sees me for me, who I am and he still wants me anyway. Look, Gwenie, I get wanting to have that kind of connection with someone, but I also get all too well how painful it is when you find out it was all just an occlusion.

What’s he saying? What I’ve been saying all along Gwen. This guy, he, he’s playing you. Why can’t you see that?

So EJ disappeared on this mysterious business trip and you haven’t heard from him since? Well, I’m, he texted me a few times saying that the trip went longer than he expected. That’s it. Well, when I asked, he said that he couldn’t go into detail. I mean, I, I. I get it. You know, Demira business is confidential.

Nicole, you are having that man’s baby. He doesn’t have to share his business affairs, but he does need to call you to see how you’re feeling, how you’re doing. I agree. I do. It is just that something’s off Chloe. I mean, he was so excited to have this baby and he was concerned about me and, and he’s the one who pushed me to go see the specialist, you know?

And now not only could he not be bothered to go to the appointment and he didn’t even bother to call to see how it went. Oh honey, I’m sorry. I just. I wanted a better father for my baby.

So you think we made a baby? Well, if we didn’t, it wasn’t due to lack of effort, we can always try again. You know, double our odds. Hmm.

You really want this, don’t you?

Sorry, Eric, I just can’t risk losing you to Nicole if this baby ends up being yours. That test has to come back negative.

Oh, I just, I know how bad you want this and how important it’s to you. Listen, having a baby, I mean, raising a child, it’s, it’s a big commitment. It’s a lifetime. I hope you’re doing this not just for me. No, I’m not. I

I want this for myself too. I want this for both of us.

Trip. I didn’t hear you come in. Oh, you were on the phone. I didn’t wanna interrupt you. So was that Johnny? Yeah. Sounded like you two were making a date. He asked me out to dinner tonight. Damn. Yeah, he beat me to the punch. You know I was gonna offer to make you dinner when you got home, but, uh, So I get for showering first.

Mm, sorry. So when are you expecting him? He’s picking me up in an hour. Okay. Then that gives us plenty of time for what hour date?

My God. What, what happened? I, I called Eli to see if there was any updates and he told me that, well, that they found blood on the docks and Abe’s hospital bracelet and that, and now he’s on his way to go. Tell Lonnie. Did they, did they find a body? No, but there was a witness who saw him go into the water and he never came back out.

And they, they haven’t found him, but they, they. They, they think you drown.

I just can’t believe it. It just, it doesn’t seem real. Abe was, uh, he was a great guy. He didn’t deserve this

well. Um, I should go. Um, Eli said that Jada and Ray were on their way to tell Mama, and so I, I, I have to be there so that she’s not alone. You sure you’re okay to drive? I have to be, I, I have to be there for my mom. She needs you in one piece. Come on. Lemme take you

Eric. I meant what I said before. Both my parents are dead Collins in jail probably for a very long time. I mean, the odds of him having kids are pretty slim. I’ve got no cousins. I’ve. I know uncles or aunts when she’s, I really have no extended family, so if I wanna be surrounded by family, I have to create that for myself.

I’m a big family and they drive me crazy, and I can’t imagine life without them. I envy that my family. You know, which is pretty obvious was messed up. But raising a baby with you would gimme a chance to kinda move past all of that, you know, make up for the mistakes that my family and die made.

It’s, I just feel like it would be, Chance at redemption. Yeah. That, in other words, I mean, if I, if I can be a good mom, maybe I can be a good person.

You know what may, maybe I, I’m being too hard on ej too hard. You literally just said it was his idea for you to see that specialist and then when the appointment comes, he just flakes. Well, I, I mean, he had a good reason I. A business trip. Look, it’s, it’s the company. It’s, it’s the de mere legacy. It means a lot to him.

And it’s not like I didn’t know exactly who he was when we got back together. I mean, I was married to the man twice, so. You’ve accepted him. Flaws and all

I have. Okay. And I think that you should accept the fact that I have done the same with Sander.

I care who grand marries because we used to be involved. In fact, we were nearly married newly. It didn’t work out, obviously. Obviously. Yes. Your law seems to be my gain. Sander. Xander. Yes. Xander. That does ring a bell. And yet you said you never heard of me. Well, it didn’t register at first, but now it does.

Yes. Gwen told me all about your history. She told me all about how you hurt her and now how she’s doing everything in her power to move on from you.

You think Dimitri’s playing me. For God’s sakes, Quinnie, I’ve been saying that all along. Why is my thinking that this guy is a devious dirt bag news to you? Why is my thinking that his wanting to marry you is not coming from a pure place and that schmuck’s heart surprising to you? Okay. Okay. It’s not a surprise to me.

I know that you have not trusted Dmitri from the start, but what you are not seeing here is that the relationship has changed. Oh, I’m seeing it. It’s gone from casual and terrible to serious and alarming. Will you just listen to me please? Me writing a favorable article about Dimitri is one thing, but him marrying me, I mean, how is that gonna earn him Any respect?

I’m an ex-con for God’s sake. I’ve screwed over half of the people that I know. Not to mention the fact that I don’t have a bloody dollar to my name. So what on earth do I have to offer him? How does he benefit from making me his wife? Can we have a date? I mean, you said Johnny’s not picking you up for an hour, right?

Right. But. I need time to get ready. It takes you a whole hour to get ready. Uh, no, but even if I hurry, it’s won’t be long before Johnny gets here. Okay. Then it’ll have to be a quick date. Come on. I don’t know. What do you say? We mean back here in 15 minutes for a 45 minute date. I bet you I can show you a better time in 45 minutes than Johnny could over a three course meal.

Okay. You’re alone. I’ll see you in 15 minutes.

What does me dating EJ have to do with you dating Xander? Well, if you know, if you’re okay with all the things that ejs done, Do you think that you should lighten up on Xander? You were kind of hard on him the other day with good reason. For God’s sake, Chloe, he kidnapped me and Holly and, and Bonnie and Susan, and he left you with a murderous drug, Lord, in Mexico I know.

And EJ kidnapped Sidney. Remember that? Look, we could spend the rest of this night cataloging all of ejs and Sanders crimes and. Trying to figure out who’s more appalling or whatever. But for the sake of our friendship, please, I think we should stay off of that topic. I, I think we should refrain from commenting on each other’s person of interest.

So you’re telling me that Xandr is likely to remain your person of interest. Possibly. So how serious is it? You don’t wanna know if it’s serious. You wanna know if I’ve slept in it well, have you? Not yet. Ah, I bet you’re going to.

Gwen and I had a complicated relationship. Complicated by the fact that she lied, cheated and fed my fiance psychosis, inducing drugs to sent her to a mental institution. Huh. So you were in a relationship with Gwen and had a fiance. It was a very complicated relationship. Yes. And it’s over now, and the fact that you still work with Gwen doesn’t change the fact that you have no right.

To anything in her personal life. That’s not your call. Well, let me put it this way for you, Xander. I don’t like it when people comment, let alone interfere. In my personal life, these people, they usually regret it. I make sure of that. Well, that’s wonderful. We have something in common cuz if someone hurts someone that I care about, then I do still care about Gwen.

They also end up regretting it, and I also make sure of it.

Look, I don’t know what Dimitri wants, but he sure as hell must, wants something. Wow. You really know how to flatter a girl, don’t you look gwenie. It’s not your self-esteem I’m worried about. It’s your happiness. I am trying to protect you from being a jilted bride. Again. That’s it. Darius. I married Darius because he needed a green card.

Maybe that’s what Dimitri needs since he’s from Transylvania or whatever. He’s not from bloody Transylvania. And where is he from? Last chance Iowa cut and shoot Texas. By the way, those are names of actual places I Googled. Weirdest American city names, committed them to memory to use for an occasion just like this.

Wow. How very, very clever of you. And now back to the point, it doesn’t matter where Dimitri’s from because he’s in this country legally, how legally, and even so maybe his visa’s about to expire or maybe just maybe he actually loves me and he does wanna spend the rest of his life with me. Did you ever think of that?

What are you thinking? Mm. I’m thinking I’m starving. Me too. You want to go down and get some dinner in the pub? Sure. But first, why don’t you call your mother? My mother? Why? Well, remember I told you a few weeks back. That I’d suggested the four of us having dinner. Yeah. You can invite her and John and we can tell them the good news that we’re trying to have a baby.

No, not on the first dinner. Maybe we should just kind of ease them into this. Okay. You’re right. You know what? I will call my mom and ask her if she and John are available for dinner tonight. How’s that? Mm-hmm.

Hey, mom, the reason why I’m calling is because Sloan and I wanted to know if you and John will join us for dinner tonight. What? What happened? What happened with Abe? Mama? Mama, you home?

I don’t think she’s here. Yeah, well, Eli told me that, that Jada and Ray were coming by. So what if she doesn’t know what happened to Abe

Jada? Hi. Um, yeah, yeah. Eli told me about Abe. Um, but I, I just got home and my mom’s not here. You did? Okay. Um, thanks for letting me know. It’s, it’s okay. Johnny’s here. Okay, thanks.

They, uh, they talked to your mom when they told her. She insisted on going down to the dock, so, They’re there with her now. Okay. Uh, you, you, you want me to drive you over there? Jada said that as best if I just stay here. That way when Mama comes home, she isn’t alone. But you, you don’t have to stay though.

I, I’m sure you probably already have planned, so it’s really okay. No, it’s not. I’m gonna stay here until your mom gets back.

Trip.

You look very lovely. Thanks. Ready for our date.

Okay. This one. Ah, okay. Okay.

What? Yeah, how did you do that? Carefully. Okay.

Which one? No. Oh yeah. What? Ret. Nice and quick.

Okay. Yeah, I saw that one coming. I usually don’t lose at this game. Oh really? Yeah.

Of course it is possible that Dimitri loves you. You are eminently lovable. It’s just not likely. Because you are eminently cynical. I am protective of my best friend is what I am. And look, don’t shoot the messenger. I’m just saying as someone who knows a thing or two about cons, I can spot one a mile away and gwenny this dude is up to something.

I will bet you my favorite Rainbow Chino shorts.

Is that a threat? It’s more like a promise. What are you gonna do? You’re gonna run a nasty article about me. Oh, that’s right. You haven’t been in town long enough to know about my past careers, have you? Well, I’ve had a few past careers myself. Great. I hope that experience serves you well, cuz if you do anything to hook win, spectator’s gonna be the least of your worries.

Look, I don’t know what’s gonna happen between Xander and me. We haven’t been together that long, obviously, and that would be a big step. And you mean sharing a bed with the man you already share an apartment with? Uh, okay. All right. Whatever you and Sander do is your business. Okay. Thank you for acknowledging that.

Mm-hmm. And speaking of, I have to go Sander’s picking up some dinner from the P, but I love you. And I hope that EJ comes home soon. Yeah, me too. Been a little lonely lately. Well, aside from whoever is hanging out in here, well, I’m always here for you all. I know. Thank you. Love you too. Yeah, yeah. Thanks for letting me know.

I’m sorry too.

Bye. Geez. What happened? Someone saw Abe Carver fall off the docks this afternoon. They’re sending divers in. They presume Dead. Dead. Oh my God. I’m so sorry. Has he just been wandering around this whole time? I’m not sure why. Oh. Cause I was thinking about what this means for my brother. I mean, when Abe went missing the, the first thing I thought of was, you know, Dick Collin killed him.

But if this all happened this afternoon, I mean, well, Collin’s in jail, this could be really good news for him. I’m so sorry, Eric. I was so insensitive. I know what Abe meant to you and your family and, and Colin caused them so much pain. I’m sorry. Yeah, I need to, but listen, I understand you love your brother.

Oh, no. What Nicole? He was like a father to her. She’s just, I know. I, I had no idea. She’s gonna take the snooze really hard when she finds out. I mean, she go see her. You want me to go see Nicole, Eric? She’s gonna need a friend right now. That’s very kind of you. And as you know, as a lawyer, you probably shouldn’t let that get around, but you’re a good purse.

No, you did it. I mean, you packed a whole date into 45 minutes. Well, I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you know the date’s not over yet. No, no, no. You can’t leave out the kiss. Goodnight

Johnny.

Hey, Johnny, are you on your way? Um, no, actually, uh, I, I ran into Chanel and she just found out that Abe is dead. What? Oh my God. Yeah. Um, I mean, you know, I saw her, she, she was so upset. I, I didn’t want her to drive. So I’m here at her mom’s apartment now. Um, she’s with the police, her, her mom. I mean, um, look, I, I don’t think I can leave Chanel alone.

No, no, of course not. And I don’t know when Pauline’s gonna be back, so I’m not really sure when I can get over there. Okay, Johnny, don’t worry about it. I’ll do it some other night. No, no. I’ll be there. No, look, I can’t imagine how Chanel must be feeling right now. You have to stay with her and you can’t just run out when her mom gets there.

You’re right, you’re right. I, uh, I can’t, um, I’m really sorry. Don’t be, I’m just really glad that you were there when she needed to. Thanks for being so understanding. I’ll, uh, I’ll call you later.

Was that Wendy? Yeah. Yeah, it was. Did you two have plans for the night?

I, I can’t believe it. A, was one of my dad’s best friends. Seemed like a lot of people left him, especially Chanel. I mean, she lost her own dad a while ago and he was the only father she had left.

Johnny, it’s so good of you to be here with me, but honestly, you don’t have to stay. Look, don’t worry about me. Okay. Look, I am happy to stay for as long as you need me. Sure. I’m sure there’s no way I’m leaving you.

Oh, hey, I, uh, got the spicy chicken sandwich extra pickles. Oh, thank you. Did you remember the hot sauce? Of course, yes. Is everything okay? Yeah, yeah, sure. You seem a little distracted. Yeah, I guess I have, I kind of a weird runin outside the pub. Really? Yeah, I was one. Dimitri v Ner. Looks like he and Gwenna getting married.

Did it ever occur to you to just. Keep your doubts to yourself and just wish me the best. I don’t keep my doubts to myself because I wish you the best, and marrying that card. Carrying conman would be a train wreck, a plane crash, a tsunami, followed by a winter ice storm, followed by a catastrophic typhoon.

Hi. Hi. Hi. I hope you don’t mind me stopping by. No, not at all. Oh, I see you got my flowers. Yes. Um, did. Um, they’re so lovely. Although next time you might wanna spring for a larger arrangement. Leo, weren’t you just leaving? No, I wasn’t.

Oh, he doesn’t bother me. One learns to simply ignore Ladies in waiting. Ignore me at your own peril. Von Leischner, by the way, I Googled that name. It’s derived from the German word fleisch, meaning meat, and the suffix’s man, meaning man. Thus, the word means butcher synonymous with terminator, slaughterer slayer.

Take your pick. What brings you by Dmitri? I was just in the neighborhood and I was wondering now that you’ve had a bit of time to, uh, think about it, would you do me the great honor of becoming my wife?

Oh, here’s to hoping you’re in there, baby. So I don’t have to feel so guilty about what I did to Eric’s paternity test. Uh, then again, maybe there’s no reason to feel guilty. Maybe EJ really is the father of Nicole’s baby. After all. Ej, I know you’re busy, but if you could let me know

if you, if you have. And the idea when you’ll be back,

dammit. Damn it. Dammit. The father of my baby does not walk through that door. In the next five minutes, I am gonna scream.
