THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Hello. How’d you like your first day as a baker? I loved it. I can’t wait to be back tomorrow. You sure about that? I know I kind of put the pressure on, but I had to see if you could handle it. and you did. Which is a major relief for me because I have been falling further and further behind since Allie left.

Well, I’ll be back tomorrow. You can count on it. Great. Well, good night. Night. Hey, can I ask you something about running a bakery? That lawyer, why does she hate you so much?

Real estate listings. Frita, you said she was looking for a place. Oh, you didn’t have to go through all this Trouble. Wasn’t any trouble. one of our uniforms. Moonlight as a realtor. Well, you still went out of your way for my sister. Well, actually I did it for you. Really? You did say that sharing a bed with your sister was killing your back and, uh, I can’t have my detectives being tired.

Thank you. Mm-hmm. . You’re standing around shooting the breeze. Why aren’t you getting Sloane Feed in off the streets.

Hey, Sloane. Hey, I’m glad I made it here before you locked. I am too. Um, I was gonna call and find out how you were doing. Oh yeah. Because, uh, Peterson versus Price and Dupre case got thrown out. Oh, you’ve been banking everything on that wrongful death. If Paul Price and her little slut daughter really think I’m through with them, they’re dreaming.

I’ll see those two bitches in hell first.

Okay. What the hell are you up to now? Welcome home dear. How was your day? I asked you a question. I had to celebrate your triumph, didn’t I? Well, you don’t have to lay it on so thick. I’m not exaggerating. You handled those Saxton people like the pro you are. They’re dying to be in the Gabby Shin business now.

I don’t blame him. Yeah, I guess I went pretty well, I would say. So. You’re on your way to starting your second fashion empire. To my beautiful, talented wife.

Ah, good. You are here. I just heard from the man I have tailing Gabby Anne. She’s back at the apartment. Lee, did you manage to book the room for the two of them at the end? Well, it took a little doing to keep it anonymous, but uh, yes I did and uh, I let myself in and gave it my own personal. Gabby and Stephan’s Love Shack is ready to rock and roll.

You just have to show up. Oh, I’m sure they will make sure of that. Now, all we need is for Lee to catch them in the act. Who’s getting caught in the act?

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

It would take a while to explain why Sloan hates me. I’m sorry. It’s none of my business. It’s just she threatened you today. Yeah. And I don’t blame you for being curious Sloan, she’s hated me for a long time. Say no more. Why? I guess I kind of have to, you’re gonna be working for me, and there is no telling what that woman is capable of.

So, um, yeah, I, I don’t want you to get hurt by this me, I’m just,

You aren’t laughing. No, I’m not. This is serious song. Hey, British police, they’re not pressing charges in the judge. He threw out the civil suit. You’re kind of running outta options, aren’t you? Just pay no attention to me. I get this way when I’m frustrated. It’s not just about the lawsuit for Paulina and Chanel, it’s about us too.

Your gallery. I’m always excited about taking over sweet bits and seeing it there. The money we would’ve made from the lawsuit, we could have renovated it. And now it just says everything’s thrown out the window. Hey, now on the gallery was more your idea than it was mine. Now you are a talented photographer.

Only you deserve it.

I just can’t believe that. Paulina, sorry. And she now got off spot free. And we got what? We got nothing. It’s okay. Just stop worrying. You know me well enough to know that I don’t, just without that easy, and I’m not giving up on you

to you, my love.

Huh? You don’t like champagne? I. I just don’t love feeling like you’re up to something. Can’t I just be happy for you? No, you don’t do anything just for me. There’s always something in it for you. So what is it? Is it my deal with Saxtons or is it the fact that you set it up and now I owe you? You, Paul and I were talking about the possibility of me catching you in the act with Gabby.

The very last thing. Any of us here? And why you two seem so happy talking about it? Well, if we seem happy, it’s because I came through with my promise to help you and Gabby be alone together, but that is not guaranteed. So you two will have to be discreet. So you’re helping us out. Mm-hmm. . By taking a room at the Salem man under a false name, manage that.

The point is, it’s all set, everything is tickety boo. But if you have doubts of any kind, yeah, I’ll go back to the Salem man and tell him I changed my mind right now. But Steph in it’s, it’s up to you.

I’m at the. Do you hear what I’m trying to say? I hear you, but I don’t understand. Cause I thought the judge threw out Sloan’s case. Isn’t this over? I wish on Brady. He knows everything. Sean pulled his stake out tonight and he hasn’t said a word to me about you or Sloan. He hasn’t said anything to me either.

Listen, our detectives are not in the habit of conducting private investigation. That’s not what this is. Okay, well then why don’t you tell me what it is. I talked to Sean Brady today and I asked him to be discre. Looks like he took me a little too seriously, but, well, what do you wanna hear about first?

The break-in at my office or Sloane’s. Crazy threats against Jane, Janelle, and me. Well, I don’t care where I saw it first. As long as it ends up with that Luna check in a jail self.

So this professor that you had an affair with turned out to be Sloan’s father, I’m not proud of any. I should have just walked out of his office the second he came onto me, but I didn’t.

Anyway, Sloan’s mother, she found out about us and one day she pretended to be him and she tricked me into meeting up with her on the roof. And when I got there, she confronted me and threatened me. And what did you. It, it all happened so fast. She came at me and I, I, I tried to, to push her away and then she lost her balance and fell.

She died. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, anyway, uh, Sloan is convinced that it wasn’t an accident. She’s sure. I pushed her mother and her father made her think that she’s right. The man that you had I affair with wound, wound up drinking himself to death. God, I, he left someone a letter telling her that, um, that he knew that I pushed her mother off of that roof.

My God, this is, and then my mom came running to the rescue right after Sloan’s mother died. She managed to keep the whole thing quiet and the mother’s death was ruled an accident, and I, I thought the whole thing was over. But then Sloane got her father’s letter and then she, uh, she tried blackmailing me and then, and that didn’t work.

She tried to have me sent back to London for a trial, and then when the police said that it was too late to bring up charges against me, she. She tried to sue me for wrongful death, and then the judge refused to take the case and she still didn’t get the message. She’ll never get it. Wow. So that’s why she acted that way this morning.

I know I’m the bad guy in this situation. If I had just told her father that I wasn’t interested, then her mother wouldn’t have died the way that she did. Yeah. But the professor was the adult. In this situation, you shouldn’t feel bad about any of this. Two people are dead and their psychopath daughter is obsessed with making me pay.

This isn’t going away Anytime.

If you’re having second thoughts about taking this drop, I understand. No. Look, I spent all day baking today and it was the most refreshing and rewarding feeling I felt in a very long time. So trust me, I’ll be back. Well, great. That’s great. As long as you know the score. No, I really appreciate your honesty.

It just makes me feel bad. Why?

I haven’t been so honest with you.

I’m being honest, Gabby. I am capable of being happy for you without trying to get something for myself. Since one, I admit, I’m hoping that this opportunity changes the way you feel about me. I’ve never denied that. That’s what I. But there is something else motivating me. I’m pulling for you, Mrs. Shin.

Always. I wanna watch you show the world your drive, your intelligence, your creative talent. You went into that meeting today and took no prisoners. Tell me you’re as excited about that as.

Even if I’m the one who made it happen,

the sail. Really? The sailor man? Yes. The one that’s right off Wharton Town Square, the one that everybody in their mother in this town goes to. Oh, Steph. Not everyone. Okay. But they do get their fair share of foot traffic. So how do you suggest we show up and get into that building site on. Show up in the middle of the night.

Do we show up in disguise? Do has the entire front desk staff been paid off? I’ve already arranged things with the manager. The room will be paid full through a subsidiary of Dera Enterprises. Mm-hmm. . And you and Gabby will have access to a back entrance and we’ll fill you in on the rest if you’re interested.

It seems my brother isn’t ready to accept your generosity. Nicole, do you? . Look, aj, it’s not Lee that I’m worried about. He doesn’t scare me one bit, but Gabby has everything to lose here and it’s not like these circumstances are gonna go on forever. All Gabby has to do is adhere to Lee’s conditions for the next five months and his shares of the company become hers five months.

Yeah, but that’s a long time to wait for a couple who’s wanted to be together as, as long as you and Gabby have. That may be true, but if Lee catches us in that room, Gabby gets nothing. You are giving yourself and Gabby a great deal of credit for self-control. You try and wear me down. No, no. I’m trying to prove to you that I’m on your side.

Now look, I know that’s going to be hard to convince. Especially after what I, what I kept from you. I know that the time spent under Dr. Ross Spell is time lost with Gabby. It’s the reason Gabby married Lee, and I wanna make that up to you.

You have no idea how badly I’m gonna take you up on this. Me just a thought being with Gabby. Look, I understand your objections to the plan soon, shouldn’t we try and solve those problems? Look, all it takes is for you to say the word, and Nicole will leave right now and get in touch with Gabby. She’ll fill her in on the plan and get her into the in safely.

You and I will stay here and try and figure out the most secure way for you to.

But no one is doing anything until you say the word.

Go for it. Okay.

You’re doing the right thing. God, I hope so.

You know what you should ask your father about showing your pictures. . Why? Because then you could just sell directly to the customers. I’m seeing a lot of restaurants do it. Yeah. Pricey restaurants maybe. But my customers come for club chatter. Hmm. Not to mention, then I have to talk to my dad about this whole idea, and then he’d be involved, and then it wouldn’t be my gallery.

Well, I mean, gallery’s probably not happening anyway now. Hey, a disappointment today and you’re worried about me. Do you not know how much you mean to me? How important you are? Eric, if it wasn’t for you, I would spend 24 hours a day just obsessing over Chanel, Dupree and Paulina Price. Well then try not to and let it go.

I can’t.

I know that makes me complicated to, uh, deal with I can do complicated.

Lucky.

So, after you and Stephanie found out that your office had been trashed, I called Sean and. And told him to arrest Sloan, but he didn’t. Well cuz there weren’t any witnesses. , can we not get hung up on the details? I know who did it. Same person who painted murderer on the window of the bakery. It, it, it’s Sloane Peterson’s Mo.

There’s something called a burden of proof, so we have to have proof before we can charge Sloane Peterson. So the law protects her and leaves Chanel and me to fend for ourself. We just can’t press any charges. Based on your theories alone. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Chanel’s helper at the bakery. She was there when Sloane went off on her this morning.

She was, yeah. I, I just remember. That helper is my sister. Okay. Well that gives us something to go on. Oh, yeah. I, I can prove that Sloan blackmailed me. I can prove that she tried to haul Chanel and me into court and call us murderers. Neither one of those things worked out for her and she’s, she’s going rogue.

I’m just scared to death of what she’s gonna do next. She threatened you directly. Didn’t I say that? No, you didn’t. Well, she did. She got right up in my face, says she doesn’t care what a court of Lord says. Please, please. I’m, I’m, I’m asking for your help. I’ve been, I’ve been trying to take care of Chanel since this tragedy happened.

I’m just, I’m just afraid that she’s in more danger now than ever. You, you need to step up now. I’m, I’m scared for my baby’s life.

A. , you are a doctor? Mm-hmm. what? Like you have a PhD or something? No, an md. Oh, oh, so you’re like a doctor. Doctor? Yeah. Okay. Well, uh, good for you. Uh, but would you mind telling me why a doctor wanna work in a bakery?

So, I became a doctor because my father was one. . And then once I realized I was really good at science, I wanted to follow in his footsteps, he was my hero. So I finished med school and started my internship and I started wondering like, why am I not excited about what I’m doing? You did say today was one of the most rewarding days you’d had in a long time.

Yeah, and it. I love baking and when I saw your sign in the window, I felt like that was fate stepping in and nudging me. I had to apply. So this was just like a spur of the moment thing. Exactly. But your application, all your experience at that famous New York bakery, they didn’t exactly employ me. You were an intern.

No, but I went every day if it counts. So you were conning me? No, not exactly. Okay. Look, I would buy something like a croissant and then I would take it home and I would reverse engineer it to see why they made it so light and flaky, which I figured out by the way that means anything. But no, I was not honest on my application.

Yeah, sounds like. So does that mean that I’m fired?

You have to trust Nicole. She’s thought of everything. No, I’m not thinking about her. Thinking about Gabby. I mean, I could be with her for the first time. Forever roll’s. Finally outta my head. I know what I want, what I’ve always wanted, and I was this close to get him to tell Gabby that. And, but he’d already gotten another sign.

The papers. Yes. I know tonight is supposed to change all of that. This is what you, Gabby deserve. It is, but what if she hates the. Why would she,

you think she’s automatically gonna trust Nicole? Why not? Why would she? Nicole married Rafe and then dumped him. Gabby loves her brother. She’s probably gonna throw Nicole out. I mean, this whole idea could be dead in the water before it even begins.

I am not gonna lie. I’m super stoked about this deal. I mean, I fought it all the way because it was your idea. I know I was there. You can’t blame me. I didn’t even know I wanted this deal so bad. I only figured it out when, when I was talking to those execs today, they were eating out of the palm in my hand.

They were so excited. I, I, I have to say thank you. You were the one that got me into that room and you knew what I needed. I’m. Even if I had an ulterior motive, even if you did wonder who that could be.

Hi. Oh, um, is this a bad time?

Are you two going to help me? You are not. You do have a legitimate complaint finally, but there is not a whole lot of corroborating evidence. Are you turning me down? No. Seriously. No, we are not. We’re not. There is no harm in bringing Ms. Peterson in for questioning. Oh, what does that mean? Well, it means we’ll ask the questions cuz you better have some damn convincing answers.

Ooh, this soft space by the river looks really interesting. No, it’s on the fifth floor. I mean, how would people find it? Okay, that’s a good point. Well, what about the storefront here? This is a great location. No, it used to be an ice cream parlor. It would cost too much money to. Are you always such a downer like you’re getting on my nerves?

I’ll try to be more positive. Please do

You feeling better? Yeah, I am.

I dunno why I agreed to do this in the first. And Gabby is gonna become suspicious. The moment of Nicole shows up at her door, I’m gonna give her a heads up. What if FL is with her when she gets your text? The whole plan will go up in spoke.

So either way I lose. No, I anticipated this. Use this phone whenever you contact Gabby to catch up. Adam Burner. Mm-hmm. . Even if Lee sees the text, he won’t know it’s from you. He really did think of everything. As I said before, I’m on your side. No, Stefan, I want this for you.

What are you doing here? I came to talk to Gabby, so I heard you had a meeting with Saxtons today about a new product line. Work gets around fast. Well, I’m here to pitch you to come over to Basic Black instead, you wanna go into business with me? Mm-hmm. Basic Block is owned by Damara Enterprises. I can’t see EJ standing I by while you cut a deal with.

Yeah, me neither. Well, EJ doesn’t have a say in this Brady, and I have carte blanche to run basic lack hour way. I might believe that if I didn’t know that you and EJ are having an affair, ej, and I know how to separate business from our personal life. Oh, come on Gabby. Don’t let my relationship with EJ make you miss out on a great opportunity.

Why don’t we grab a drink and we’ll talk it over? Don’t be taken in. It’s almost like you heard about Gabby’s meeting with Saxtons and rushed over here just to keep from being scooped. You’re too late. By the way, I am familiar with basic Black’s operating budget, and you can’t match Saxon’s offer. You really want me to believe that they gave her a firm offer already.

What’s the text? Nothing important. You know what? Um, one drink is gonna be pretty quick. I wanna hear what Nicole has to say.

That place in New York, it’s more than just a bakery. It’s a patisserie, right? Did you copy the tart to tan? Mm-hmm. . It’s just a fancy apple. , no problem. Chocolate financier. Okay. I had a problem nailing that one. Does that mean that I’m fired? I hate to break it to you, but you are way too talented to let that.

And you got guts. Sal, you are stuck with me and sweet bits. Thank you, . Oh, thank goodness you’re still here. Did something happen? I just came from the police department. Why it? It’s okay. I’ve already told her about Sloan. Except for what? To my office. Your office. What happened to your office? It was trashed.

So if you didn’t take Sloan’s threats seriously this morning, you better start doing it now. That crazy woman, she’s still trying to get us, and now she doesn’t care what the law says. You have to be ready for anything.

So we have two possible places we are looking at tomorrow. We’re really doing this. Yeah. Yeah, we are. You know, I never would’ve crossed my mind open a gallery if it hadn’t been for you. We’re really excited.

Why do I go back to my place and celebrate and dinner? We can pretend to look at takeout menus for like five minutes,

but um, let’s get out of here because I’ve never been so excited to not eat in my life.

Yes, thank you.

I don’t like this. Gabby, what if Saxons finds out you’re taking other meetings? She has every right to, plus it’ll drive her price up. I stuck my neck out to make Saxon’s commit on paper if they think you’re playing them. Gabby, what’s wrong with getting the best possible deal? And don’t you want that? Of course I do.

What about dinner? We’ll just keep it warm and we can have it later. Yeah.

Uh, this isn’t about a fashion deal, is it? There’s no fool in you. Now I am here because of, of. I just got an anonymous text and I think it was him. It said, listen to Nicole. What? What is this, Martin? You’re doing the right thing. I will tell you everything in the car. Ah, this is taking forever.

Nicole has Gabby with her and they’re on the way to the end, and so am I.

What if Lee’s having me filed? No, don’t worry about that. My people are better than his people and they’ve been alerted. Now there’s a car waiting for you outside with the keys and that. Leave your car here. Okay, we’ll real quick, wait, wait, wait. What? It’s interview a little while before, uh, Nicole and Gabby get to the end.

Let’s drink a small toast.

Okay,

to an event for leaving to you and Nicole, thank you for making this happen now. Thanks. Necessary entirely un.

Yeah, I’m outta here. Good luck.

But I’m afraid that has just run out, bro.

I cannot believe Sloan trashed her office. She’s off the rails. That one I had a hard time convincing your sister and Ray Hernandez of that. But finally, I, I got him to see the light. Oh, Sloan went through my office looking for something to use against us. She probably did it right before she came back here.

Who, what did Ray say he was gonna do? Said he was gonna run her in for questioning. If your sister winds up putting Sloan in the cell, tell us, she has my permission to just throw away the key. We were just leaving. You’ll have to make other plans. Is this about what happened with s. I thought we were done and when he dropped the charges, this isn’t about you, so it’s maimed why We’ll discuss this at headquarters.

We have a few questions we’d like to ask you.

Put the rose pedals on the bed, me and uh, there’s the champagne in the bucket and bath bubbles by the tub. He really went all out. And Stephen’s on his way here. Yeah, I mean, he’s, he’s definitely coming. Oh, okay. Why, why do you look so skeptical? I’m just, I’m having a hard time believing that EJ is down with this.

It’s like I told you, EJ feels really bad about keeping Stephan in the dark about what Rolf did, and Stephan will confirm that when he get. What about are you, what, what do you get out of this? What can I say? I’m, I’m a romantic, but there won’t be much romance if I’m still here. So just make me feel comfortable and wait for your guy.

Okay. Wait, wait.

Thank you. Thank you. Uh, Stephanie and I wanna be together so much and, and making it happen for us. You the answer to our prayers.

Well, this is unexpected. I know, but I think you’ll be glad I.

Did I interrupt a celebration? It’s already been interrupted. Say what you came here to say and get outta here before GAVA gets back. How are things going with her? Slowly. That’s not good enough. Excuse me. I meted when I said I wanted to help you reconcile with her. I want Gabby far away from my brother and my family’s fortune as soon as possible.

Hmm. Well, you’ve got your work cut out for you. Hmm. Did Gabby happen to leave with Nicole? You know about her offer from Basic Block. There is no offer, I’m afraid. You’ve been set up, old boy, set up how Stefan and Gabby aren’t together as we. What? You’re lying. I’m not. Can do something about it?

Oh, I can’t believe this is happening. Oh, you gonna let me in? Thank you Nicole. Really EJ too. Yeah, enough. With the thank yous. You two just enjoy each other. Okay. I know you.

And, um, I’ll take care of this on my,

ah,

I cannot believe this is happening. Finally. You’re really.

Update written by Joseph

Chanel and Talia walk through the town square. Chanel asks how Talia liked her first day as a baker. Talia says she loved it and can’t wait to come back tomorrow. Chanel asks if she’s sure and acknowledges that she had to put the pressure on to see if she could handle it and she did. Chanel calls it a major relief because she had been falling further behind since Allie left. Talia assures she’ll be back tomorrow and they say goodnight. Talia then stops to ask Chanel why Sloan hates her so much.

Rafe goes to the police station and brings Jada a paper of home listings since she said Talia was looking for a place. Jada says he didn’t have to go through the trouble. Rafe notes that one of the workers moonlights as a realtor so it was no trouble. Jada acknowledges that he still went out of his way for her sister. Rafe responds that he actually did it for Jada since he can’t have his detectives being tired. Paulina arrives and questions them standing around shooting the breeze instead of getting Sloan off the streets.

Sloan goes to see Eric at the Brady Pub. Eric says he was going to call to check on her since her trial got thrown out. Sloan responds that if Paulina thinks she’s through with her and Chanel, she’s dreaming. Sloan declares that she will see those two bitches in Hell first.

Gabi comes home to find Li has set up a candle light dinner. Gabi questions what the hell he’s up to now. Li wants to celebrate her triumph. Gabi says he doesn’t have to lay it on so thick. Li encourages her handling the meeting and says they are dying to get in the Gabi Shin business. Gabi guesses it went pretty well. Li encourages that she’s on her way to her second fashion empire and toasts to his beautiful, talented wife.

Nicole joins EJ at the DiMera Mansion. EJ says he’s glad that she’s there and mentions getting word that Gabi is at her apartment with Li. Nicole tells EJ that she anonymously booked a room at the Salem Inn for Gabi and Stefan so everything is set up and they just have to show up. EJ assures they will, so all they need is for Li to catch them in the act. Stefan then walks in and questions who is getting caught in the act.

Chanel tells Talia that it would take awhile to explain why Sloan hates her. Talia apologizes as it’s none of her business but notes that Sloan threatened her today. Chanel doesn’t blame her for being curious and says that Sloan has hated her for a long time. Talia tells her to say no more but Chanel guesses she has to since Talia is going to be working for her and there’s no telling what Sloan will do. Chanel adds that she doesn’t want Talia to get hurt by this. Talia jokes that she’s just the help but realizes Chanel is serious.

Eric tells Sloan that after the civil suit was thrown out, she’s kind of running out of options. Sloan tells her that she’s just frustrated. Sloan says it’s not just about the lawsuit but about them and Eric’s gallery. Sloan complains that she was excited about taking over Sweet Bits and seeing Eric’s gallery there. Sloan says the money from the lawsuit could have renovated it but now it’s all out the window. Eric says it was more her idea than his. Sloan argues that Eric is a talented photographer and deserves it. Sloan can’t believe that Paulina and Chanel got off free while they got nothing. Eric tells her it’s okay and to stop worrying about it. Sloan says he knows her well enough to know that she doesn’t give up that easily and she’s not giving up on him.

Li gives Gabi a glass of champagne but Gabi feels he’s up to something. Li asks if he can’t just be happy for her. Gabi argues that he doesn’t do anything just for her and there’s always something in it for him, so she asks what it is.

EJ tells Stefan that they were just talking about the possibility of Li catching Stefan and Gabi in the act and claims it’s the last thing they want. Stefan questions why they seemed so happy talking about it then. Nicole says it’s because she came through with her promise to get Stefan and Gabi some alone time together. EJ warns that’s not guaranteed, so they will have to be discrete. Stefan questions that they are helping them out. Nicole explains that she took a room out at the Salem Inn under a false name. EJ assures it’s all taken care of while Nicole offers to go back and cancel the room if Stefan has any doubts. Nicole states that it’s up to him.

Paulina complains that she’s at the end of her rope. Rafe doesn’t understand because the judge threw Sloan’s case out so he thought this was over. Paulina asks where Shawn is since he knows everything. Rafe responds that Shawn is on a stakeout tonight while Jada notes that Shawn hasn’t said a word to her about Paulina or Sloan. Rafe notes that their detectives do not conduct private investigations. Paulina explains that she asked Shawn to be discrete and asks if they want to hear about the break-in at her office or Sloan’s crazy threats against them. Paulina wants Sloan to end up in a jail cell.

Chanel tells Talia about how she had an affair with a professor who turned out to be Sloan’s father. Chanel says she’s not proud of it and should’ve walked out when he first came on to her but she didn’t. Chanel adds that Sloan’s mother found out and messaged her while pretending to be him to get her to meet her on the roof. Chanel says once up there, she confronted her and threatened her and it all happened so fast. Chanel says she came at her, so she tried to push her away but she lost her balance, fell, and died. Chanel continues that Sloan is sure it wasn’t an accident and that she pushed her mother while her father made her think she’s right. Chanel adds that Sloan’s father ended up drinking himself to death but he left Sloan a letter, saying she pushed her mother off the roof. Chanel explains that Paulina came to her rescue and managed to get things kept quiet while the death of Sloan’s mother was ruled an accident. Chanel thought the whole thing was over until Sloan got her father’s letter and tried blackmailing her then having her sent back to London for a trial but it was too late for the charges, so she tried to sue her for wrongful death but the judge refused the case. Talia questions Sloan not getting the message. Chanel says she never will. Talia realizes now why Sloan acted that way this morning. Chanel acknowledges that she’s the bad guy in this situation as if she didn’t get involved with Sloan’s father, then her mother wouldn’t have died that way. Talia argues that he was the adult in the situation so she shouldn’t feel bad about any of this. Chanel responds that two people are dead and their psychopath daughter is obsessed with making her pay, so this isn’t going away anytime soon. Chanel adds that she understands if Talia is having second thoughts about taking this job. Talia assures that she’s not and says she spent the whole day baking which was the most refreshing and rewarding thing she’s felt in a long time. Talia assures she will be back tomorrow. Chanel says that’s great as she wipes tears from her eyes. Talia appreciates her honesty and says she just feels bad because she hasn’t been so honest with her.

Li tells Gabi that he’s being honest and is capable of being happy for her without trying to get something for himself. Li admits he hopes this opportunity changes how she feels about him but says he’s always pulling for her and he wants to watch her show the world her drive, intelligence, and creative talent. Li asks if Gabi is excited about the meeting as he is, even if he’s the one who made it happen.

Stefan complains about the Salem Inn being right off the town square where everyone goes, so he questions how they are supposed to get in there without being seen. Stefan asks if they are supposed to show up in the middle of the night or in disguise. Nicole assures the front desk has been taken care of while EJ adds that the room will be paid for by DiMera Enterprises. Nicole notes that Stefan and Gabi will have access to a back entrance if he’s interested. Stefan says it’s not Li that he’s worried about but Gabi has everything to lose and all she has to do is adhere to Li’s contract for five months and then his shares will belong to her. Nicole argues that five months is a long time to wait for a couple who have waited to be together as long as Stefan and Gabi have. Stefan says that may be true, but if Li catches them then Gabi gets nothing. EJ credits them having self control. Stefan asks if he’s trying to wear him down. EJ claims he wants to prove that he’s on his side now and knows that will be hard to prove after what he kept from him. EJ knows the time he spent under Dr. Rolf’s spell was time he lost with Gabi, so he wants to make that up to him. Stefan admits how badly he wants to take him up on it. EJ understands his objections to the plan and suggests trying to solve those problems. EJ tells Stefan that if he just says the word, Nicole will get in touch with Gabi to get her to the Salem Inn safely while they will figure out the most secure way for him to join her. EJ adds that no one will do anything until Stefan says the word. Stefan then tells them to go for it, so Nicole exits. EJ encourages that Stefan is doing the right thing. Stefan says he hopes so.

Sloan tells Eric that he should ask Roman about showing his pictures at the Pub and then he can sell directly to the customers which she has been seeing restaurants do. Eric says pricey restaurants do while his customers come for clam chowder. Eric adds that if he did that, Roman would have to be involved and then it wouldn’t be his gallery. Sloan remarks that the gallery’s not happening now anyway. Eric questions her worrying about him after the disappointment she’s had today. Sloan asks if Eric doesn’t know how much he means to her and how important he is. Sloan adds that if it wasn’t for him, she would spend 24 hours a day obsessing over Chanel and Paulina. Eric encourages her to try to let it go but Sloan says she can’t. Sloan knows that makes her complicated to deal with. Eric says he can do complicated as they kiss.

Rafe asks Paulina about finding her office trashed. Paulina explains that she called Shawn and told him to arrest Sloan. Rafe points out that there weren’t any witnesses. Paulina insists that she knows it was Sloan. Jada talks about not having any proof in order to charge her. Paulina questions the law protecting Sloan while leaving her and Chanel to fend for themselves. Jada repeats that they can’t press charges based on her theories. Paulina remembers that Talia was there when Sloan went off on Chanel this morning. Rafe says that gives them something to go on. Paulina argues that she can prove Sloan blackmailed her and tried to haul them in to court but neither one worked out for her, so she’s going rogue. Paulina says she’s scared of what Sloan will do next. Rafe asks if Sloan threatened her directly. Paulina states that she did and got in her face, saying she didn’t care what the court of law says. Paulina asks for their help and says she’s been trying to take care of Chanel but she’s afraid that Chanel is in more danger now than ever, so they need to step up now because she’s scared for her daughter’s life.

Talia reveals to Chanel that she’s a doctor which surprises her. Chanel questions why a doctor would want to work at a bakery. Talia explains that she became a doctor because her father was one and once she realized she was good at science, she wanted to follow in his footsteps because he was her hero. Talia talks about finishing med school and wondering why she wasn’t excited about what she was doing. Chanel notes her saying today was rewarding. Talia says she loves baking and felt like it was fate for her to apply. Chanel brings up that Talia listed working at a famous New York restaurant on her application. Talia admits she was not employed there so Chanel questions if she was conning her. Talia tries to explain but admits that she was not honest on her application. Talia then asks if that means she’s fired.

EJ encourages Stefan to trust Nicole because she’s thought of everything. Stefan responds that he’s thinking of Gabi. Stefan says he could be with Gabi for the first time in forever and now Dr. Rolf is out of his head, so he knows what he’s always wanted and he was this close to telling Gabi but she already signed Li’s papers. EJ tells Stefan that tonight is supposed to change all that as this is what he and Gabi deserve. Stefan asks what if Gabi hates the plan. EJ asks why she would. Stefan questions EJ thinking Gabi will automatically trust Nicole. EJ asks why not. Stefan reminds EJ that Nicole married Rafe and then dumped him and Gabi loves her brother, so she might throw Nicole out and then this whole idea would be dead in the water before it even begins.

Gabi admits to Li that she’s super stoked about this deal and that she fought it because it was Li’s idea. Gabi talks about not even realizing she wanted it until the executives were eating out of her hand and so excited. Gabi thanks Li for getting her in the room and giving her what she needed, so she is grateful, even if he had an ulterior motive. Nicole then shows up at the door and asks if it’s a bad time.

Paulina asks if Rafe and Jada are going to help her or not. Jada acknowledges that Paulina has a valid complaint but notes there’s not a lot of evidence. Paulina questions if they are turning her down. Rafe assures that they are not and there is no harm in bringing Sloan in for questioning. Rafe warns that Sloan better have some damn convincing answers.

Eric and Sloan look at listings for a space for Eric’s gallery. Eric turns down the first few so Sloan complains about him being a downer. Eric agrees to try to be more positive and asks if she’s feeling better. Sloan admits that she is.

Stefan doesn’t know why he agreed to do this and worries that Gabi will be suspicious the moment that Nicole shows up at her door. Stefan wants to give her a heads up but EJ warns that if Li is with Gabi when she gets his text, then the whole plan will go up in smoke. Stefan guesses he’d lose either way. EJ then reveals he anticipated this, so he presents Stefan with a burner phone so if Li sees any text, he won’t know it’s from him. Stefan acknowledges that he really did think of everything. EJ repeats that he’s on his side now and he wants this for him.

Li questions what Nicole is doing there. Nicole says she came to talk to Gabi and mentions hearing that she was pitching a new fashion line. Gabi remarks that word travels fast. Nicole claims she’s here to convince Gabi to come over to Basic Black instead. Gabi questions her wanting to go in to business with her. Li points out that Basic Black is owned by DiMera Enterprises, so he can’t see EJ just standing by while she cuts a deal with Gabi. Gabi agrees. Nicole states that EJ doesn’t have a say as she and Brady run Basic Black their way. Gabi says she would believe that if she didn’t know that she and EJ were having an affair. Nicole responds that she and EJ know how to separate business from their personal life. Nicole tells Gabi not to let her relationship with EJ make her miss out on a great opportunity. Nicole invites Gabi out for a drink so they can talk it over. Li tells Gabi not to be taken in and comments that it’s almost like Nicole heard about Gabi’s meeting and rushed over to avoid getting scooped. Li tells Nicole that she’s too late and that he’s familiar with Basic Black’s operating budget and knows they can’t match the offer. Nicole doesn’t believe Gabi already got a firm offer. Gabi gets a text from Stefan’s burner telling her to listen to Nicole. Li questions what the text was but Gabi claims it was nothing important. Gabi decides one drink will be quick and she wants to hear what Nicole has to say.

Chanel looks up the New York restaurant and asks Talia about some of the recipes. Talia confirms she knows some of them and then asks again if she’s fired. Chanel responds that she is too talented to let go and she’s got guts, so she’s stuck with her. Talia excitedly hugs her and thanks her. Paulina approaches and informs them that she just came from the police department because her office was trashed. Paulina warns Chanel to take Sloan’s threats seriously because she doesn’t care what the law says, so they have to be ready for anything.

Sloan tells Eric they have two possible locations to look at tomorrow. Eric asks if they are really doing this. Sloan confirms they are. Eric points out that it never would’ve crossed his mind to open a gallery if it wasn’t for her and admits he’s really excited. Sloan suggests they go back to her place to celebrate as they kiss. They get up to go but Rafe and Jada arrive at the Pub.

Li tells Gabi that he doesn’t like this and argues that he stuck his neck out to get her the meeting. Gabi questions what’s wrong with getting the best deal. Li asks about dinner. Gaib tells him to just keep it warm and they can have it later as she exits with Nicole. Li shuts the door in frustration. Gabi asks Nicole if this is not about a fashion deal. Nicole admits she’s here because of Stefan. Gabi mentions getting an anonymous text saying to listen to Nicole and questions what this is. Nicole says she will tell her everything in the car.

Stefan complains that this is taking forever. EJ then gets a text from Nicole that she has Gabi and they are on their way to the Salem Inn. Stefan says so is he then. Stefan asks what if Li is having him followed. EJ tells him not to worry about that as his people are better than Li’s and there’s a car out to pick him up so he won’t be in his car. EJ suggests waiting a little while until Nicole and Gabi get to the Inn and proposes a small toast. EJ pours them drinks and toasts to an eventful evening. Stefan toasts to EJ and Nicole, thanking them for making this happen. EJ says no thanks necessary as they take their drinks. Stefan then says he’s out of here so EJ wishes him luck as he exits. EJ remarks to himself that he’s afraid Stefan’s luck has just run out.

Chanel cannot believe Sloan trashed Paulina’s office. Paulina complains that Sloan is off the rails and she had a hard time convincing Jada and Rafe of that, but she finally got them to see the light. Paulina argues that Sloan went through her office, looking for something to use against them. Chanel asks what Rafe is going to do. Paulina says he’s going to bring her in for questioning. Paulina tells Talia that if Jada winds up putting Sloan in a cell, she can throw away the key.

Sloan says they were just leaving but Jada says they will have to make other plans. Eric asks if this is about what happened with Stefan as he thought they were done when he dropped the charges. Rafe responds that this isn’t about Eric. Sloan questions what they want with her. Rafe says they will discuss it at police headquarters as they have a few questions to ask her.

Nicole brings Gabi to a room at the Salem Inn with rose petals on the bed and champagne in the room. Gabi acknowledges that she really went all out. Nicole assures that Stefan is on his way. Gabi is having a hard time believing that EJ is down with this. Nicole insists that EJ feels bad about keeping Stefan in the dark about what Dr. Rolf did which Stefan can confirm. Gabi questions what Nicole gets out of this. Nicole claims she’s just a romantic but there won’t be much romance if she stays here. Nicole tells Gabi to just get comfortable and wait for her guy. Gabi hugs Nicole and thanks her since she and Stefan wanted to be together so much and she’s like the answer to their prayers.

EJ goes to see Li at his apartment. Li calls it unexpected. EJ thinks he’ll be glad that he popped by. EJ asks if he interrupted a celebration. Li responds that it’s already been interrupted. Li tells EJ to say what he has to say and get out before Gabi comes back. EJ asks how things are going with Gabi. Li says slowly. EJ says that’s not good enough and reminds Li that he meant it when he said he wanted to help him reconcile with Gabi because he wants Gabi far away from Stefan and his family’s fortune as soon as possible. Li says EJ has his work cut out for him. EJ asks if Gabi happened to leave with Nicole. Li questions EJ knowing about her offer from Basic Black. EJ reveals there is no offer and that he’s afraid Li has been setup. Li questions how. EJ then informs him that Stefan and Gabi are together as they speak. Li accuses him of lying but EJ says he’s not and asks if he cares to do something about it.

Stefan arrives at the room at the Salem Inn. Gabi can’t believe this is happening. Stefan thanks Nicole. Nicole tells them to enjoy each other and exits the room, putting the do not disturb sign on the way out. Gabi hugs Stefan and says she can’t believe this is happening. Stefan declares that they are really finally alone and kisses her.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yeah, well as soon as I hear anything new, I will let you know you take care of yourself. Lucas.

Hey, everything okay?

Yeah, just giving Lucas the latest on the search for Megan Hathaway.

I’d like an update yourself and I was about to give you. Hope has a lead on Megan’s location thanks to Harris.

Michaels, do you really mean that?

I need to trust you? We’d have to take it slow.

I’m okay with slow.

What the hell is going on here?

Hi honey. What are you? Here. Oh my God. Credible surprise. I am so. I’m so happy to see you. Let me look at my beautiful girl. I thought you were in the Caribbean sailing around with Ben and Little Bow.

Yeah, I was, uh, up until a few hours ago we docked and um, I got a motel and I happened to call Sean and he told me that you were about an hour away.

Wow. What a coincidence, huh? Yeah. Yeah. I’m so thrilled to see you. Yeah. Oh my gosh. But wait a second. I’m a little confused about this because this is a secured facility. How the heck did you get in here?

Well, uh, I am my mother’s daughter after all.

Mm-hmm. ,

I convinced Cousin Andrew to give me clearance.

Yeah, that turns out I did it just in time. Cuz I’m here to stop you from making the biggest mistake of your life.

Thanks for the memories. But I’m gonna go into my future on my own.

Oh my God.

Good to see you too. You’re alive. My, my brother’s alive.

What the.

Is this real? Is it.

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Ciara, listen to me.

No mom, you listen to me. You told me that you were out searching for Megan Hathaway. You told me that you were hunting her down to make her pay for what she did to us,

which I am.

Really?

Yes,

because I just walked in on you kissing the man that she hired to kill you.

If I can just,

it’s okay.

No, it’s not. It is absolutely not.

Okay.

And I just know that daddy would be rolling over in his grave if he could see you right now.

We weren’t expecting this.

Rolf told me that Megan was trying to bring back a lost love, but honestly, I never, I never thought it was possible. Miracle, miracle.

What happened?

Oh. Tried to inject me with his sedative and gave her a taste of her own medicine.

Oh, they just love needles around here, don’t they? Rolf just tried to do his latest test on me and his serum, and I just, I, I, I thought ’em off and I ran, and I

So you’re done with this insane experiment too, huh?

So Meins had you here all this.

Yeah, I told her I was leaving. She put up a fight and lost it. Looks like she’s coming to.

Yeah. We better get the hell outta here.

No, no. Wait, wait, wait. We can’t.

Why not?

Because Marlena is here too, and we are not going without her.

Harris Michaels, wasn’t he working for Megan?

Apparently she brainwashed him into doing her dirty work, but, uh, according to Hope, the ISA has got him. Back in his right mind and now he is doing everything he can to help track down his old boss and, uh, bring it to justice.

Hmm. But I don’t know, I mean, after all the damage this Harris guy did last summer, I do you really believe there’s anything he says that we can trust?

Mom, you have to get away from this man.

You don’t understand.

Understand what, why I just walked in on you kissing the man who tried to kill all of us in Montreal. I mean, just can please explain this to me. Please. Just tell me that you are using him to get information.

I, he’s already filled as a possible location.  In fact, John and your uncle Steve are checking it out right now as we speak.

Okay. All right. So you got him to give up his boss. That’s very nice work, mom. But did you have to do it by literally kissing him on,

stop it just. Stop for one minute and listen to me. Harris is not the same man.

Harris is a monster who we both know is very skilled at deception.  He might still be on your side, but he also might be loyal to Megan mom. He sometimes three women to their deaths already. Do you really wanna be one of them?

Can you hear me?  Oh, if this really is, shoot, come on. Please open those beautiful eyes.  It’s okay. I’m right here. It’s okay. I’m gonna get her some help. I’m gonna get her some help, baby.

Why am I not surprised to find you here?

I apologize for interrupting her. I see you and Dr. Evans in the midst of a joyous reunion.

Well, I would be, except she’s still unconscious, and

nevertheless, I’m sure you want some time alone with her. So if you’re un handy, I’ll be on my way.

But you’re not going anywhere.

What you’re gonna do is you’re gonna. Right now, so we can get the hell outta here. Hey,

okay, we’re good. Come on.

All right, follow me.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. That is not the way to where Megan was keeping us.

You’re right. It’s way off of this.

No, but I, I told you that we have to go back from Marlena.

Forget her.

What?

We don’t have time. She’s on her own.

She is unconscious. She has no way of protecting herself.

Well, her bad luck.  Come on, let’s go.

What are you talking about? We cannot desert our friends.

If we go back there, the three of us could get stuck on this island. Come on.

Leaving Marlena with Megan. She is a homicidal maniac. Do you know that Kate is dead?

Yeah, I know.

Did Megan tell you that? No, I shot her.

Oh my love  You have. Been such a bad boy that I am going to get you back in

Steve.

Megan, I was just on my,

you got that?

That better not hurt her because if it does, I am gonna splatter your grave matter all over. Your lab hurt.

No, no. After I give this injection to Dr. Evans, she is going to make a full recovery. She will be a living testament to my scientific genius.

You killed my wife and now you’re gonna pay for that. I’ve spent so long,

Steve, don’t you wanna catch up?

Keep your hands where I can see ’em.

Why you think I have something up my sleeves?

I think you’re a psychotic bitch who played God with people’s lives.

Such a harsh language patch.

Why don’t you do it?  Why did you let those women die?

Well, I’d love to bring you up to speed on my plans, but actually there are more pressing matters I need to attend to.

You’re not going anywhere except prison for murdering Kayla, Marlena and Kate.

I did not.

You did. Morpheus told us that someone stole that orchid from the Secret Room in your father’s house, and we know it was you.

I might have arranged for it to be stolen.

That’s right. And because of that, all three of them are gone and you are responsible.

I’m afraid you have that quite wrong. I didn’t steal the orchid in order to kill them. I took it to save them.

I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, but I’m done listening.

Steve, wait. There’s something you need to know.

What

your sweetness is alive.

Matt? What? What are you saying? You, you shot Katie?

Yeah.

You killed her.

Yeah. Right here.

No, no, no. This has gotta be some kind of sip joke.

No, no joke. Come on, let’s go.

Wait. You know, this isn’t making any sense. First you, you don’t care at all about Marlena, and now you’re telling me that you shot Kate.

Yeah.

You’re serious.

My God.

Paula, could you do something like that?

Why do you care?

Why do I care? Because you took someone’s life, your brother’s wife.

Yeah, she told me she got her hooks back into him.

No, no, no. You know, she made him incredibly happy. They could’ve been re

Oh, conniving, aing manipulative snake. I’ve never shut her damn mouth. You ask me. I did Roman a favor.

Now come on. You don’t mean that.

Yes, I do. I don’t care.

What, what? Well, you don’t care about that. The Kate in it, or you don’t care that your brother may never get over this

either.

Oh my God. Oh God. That’s it. Wasn’t you, it wasn’t you. You, you did not kill Kate.

Yeah, I did.

No you didn’t. No you didn’t. Not not because you wanted to, not. Not on your own free will. Megan Brainwashed.

Oh, Harris was brainwashed by Megan Hathaway. She’s been controlling his mind for years. That’s why he did all of those horrible things last summer.

And so what Now he’s just. All of a sudden magically changed.

He’s been deprogrammed and he went through hell doing it. See, that’s why he’s in the hospital bed because he collapsed after undergoing a very painful course of shock therapy.

You made him do that?

No, I did not. He volunteered. Judicial treatments weren’t working, so he consented to a more dangerous method that could have killed him.  It nearly did kill him and thank God he’s okay.

He’s been completely deed mom.

You don’t know that for sure.

I do know that. I was there. I watched the entire session and I was there and I watched him pretend to be in love with you when he was actually an assassin. Plus, oh my God, home. Please, please wake up.  Just because he got zapped a couple times doesn’t mean that he’s changed. Do you know what Navy sealed training entails? He can withstand anything.

Ciara, I understand that. He told us where he thinks Megan is.

Okay. Those could just be some random coordinates on a map. For all we know, bottom line, this could all be an act and I do not wanna risk the chance that he will hurt you again.  Mom

Ciara. My daughter as this stubborn as her father was, you’re not gonna change your mind.

That’s fine, because I agree with everything she said

we’re well. Before Megan got ahold of him, Michaels was a Navy seal by all counts of real. He. And home beliefs. He’s been Deprogrammed.

Yeah, she was there when it went down. Kimberly wasn’t having any lucks, so he signed up for E C T.

Really?

Yeah. And a bunch of his memories came back, including the location of the facility where he originally underwent the conditioning.  He thinks that’s where Megan could be held up and with any. John and Steve could be closing in on her right now.

I’m surprised you don’t wanna be a part of that. Don’t you wanna find her, bring her back?

Well, I have no doubt that John and Steve can get that done. In the meantime, I’ve uh, Got another job to do.  Matter of fact, I ought start getting going there and got a plane catch.

Okay. Oh, whoa, whoa. Where you going to Lake Cape to rest?

Nothing’s happening, doctor. You sure you got the right stuff in that syringe?

As Einstein shows that e equals mc square.

I don’t know about that, but I am sure that you’re a dead man if she doesn’t start waking up.

John, I sweetheart. Am I dreaming? ?

If you are, I’m in it cuz I’m right here with you, baby.

Hold me. Hold me.

I got, I got you. I.

You know, before Kate got sick again, we talked about taking a honeymoon. So I, I suggested Paris from reel, but uh, her heart was set on the emerald aisle.

And why was that?

Might be hard to believe, but Kate admitted to me that she liked being a breed.

What’s not to like ? Well, we don’t live in mansions. We don’t run billion dollar companies, but we do have people in.

She wanted to know where they came from. She told me that an historian once described us as ego temper and stubbornness mixed with charm, warmth. That would shine through adversity.

Hmm. Sounds a lot like Kate.

Actually. I told her that. I told her that, but in her case I would’ve to add stunningly. Beautiful. Anyway, Austin and Billiw are gonna meet me over there and we will scatter Kate Ashes. Special place and Lucas wishes he could be there too. But, uh, he does understand. I can’t wait for him to get out. And I’m not about to carry this urn around like Anna did for years.

I not, the Tony was alive.

Yeah. As much as I wish the hell left we’re possible. I’m afraid that to outcome it won’t be the same for the women we’ve lost.

Did you hear what I. Kayla is alive

and you’re lying. You’re just waiting for one of your goons to come by and save you. That’s not gonna happen.

Oh, don’t you want to know where your sweetness is?

I know where she is. She’s in her grave. I stood there and washed with our children while they lowered her into the ground.

That wasn’t Kayla.

You better stop talking now.

Look, I know you have no reason to believe me when I say that your wife is still amongst the lady. But don’t you want to see, don’t you want to see for yourself?  Because Kayla’s here, I can prove it. I’ll take you to a right now.

Megan did the same thing to Stephen John last summer. She brainwashed them and they did terrible things.

I don’t follow anyone’s orders.

Look, I can see that you are trying to break free, but, and, and that you’re still working on it, but Megan could still have a hold on you. So we need to go back and get Marlene and she can help you.  Shoot back to the man you used to be.

I don’t want that.

You don’t wanna be the man you were.

No. That man died years ago. No, no, he did.

And you are standing right in front of me and whatever Megan did to you, we can fix it.

There is nothing to fix. I don’t need Marlena. I don’t need anyone.

Oh really? Oh really?

You agree with Ciara?

I, I get where she’s coming from. I mean, I understand why she’s worried. Why, why shouldn’t she be? I terrorized her family.  Look, I, I take responsibility for my actions and really, I’m, I’m grateful that I get a chance to, to apologize to you in.  Ciara, I am. Um, I am truly sorry for what I did to you and your family, and I do not blame you one bit for not wanting me near your.

Honey, remember how, um, how people reacted when you first got together with Ben? Everyone thought, well, especially. Beth, there was absolutely no way he could ever change. But you believe he deserved to cycle? I believe Harris does too.

I’m just, um, I’m really worried about you. I mean, ever since Daddy died, Exactly. Have the best luck in the love department.

I agree with you on that. It’s true. ‘Mm-hmm. Harris and I have decided, um, we’re gonna take one step at a time. We’re gonna take it slow. I promise you, Ciara, you have to recognize he put his life on the line B and d programmed to help me find.

It nearly killed him.

That was very brave of you. Yes. Thank you. Mm-hmm. . So, um, you gave Steve and John Megan’s location that, uh, that map that you found, that’s where you think she is. Yeah. It’s impossible location. Yeah. Okay. Why do we need to hear what they.

So, um, tell me everything. Fill me in. Tell me about Little Bow. How is the Caribbean? No, how big is he? Oh, okay. All right. Okay. Is he sitting first? His mama, mama mom? Yes. What. As you have some news and it is good kind of news. I love a good kind. Mm-hmm. , please tell me right now. All right, so, uh, baby bow is going to be a big brother.

The baby. Yeah. , no pregnant. Oh my gosh. That is not the good kind of news that. What’s the great kind news? My daughter, congratulations.

Seems I a third wheel, so

you should know by. That’s impossible.

Are you sure that you’re okay? I am. Now that you’re here, let get you out this thing. Okay?

You love company.

Megan has been keeping others captive as well. Listen, listen, I, I, I can’t, I can’t even imagine what you went through here, but you survived and, and I’m sure that a lot of what drove you was your feelings for hope. Come on. Had nothing to do with her. Megan saved me. She put me on ice, cured my tumor. The downside from all that is she has this crazy ass fantasy that we belong together.

Oh, that, that’s impossible because you belong with Hope. Ancient history. No. No. Oh, listen, you might have been gone, but the love was still there. It’s, it’s still there. Lord. You stop. What? You’re there just not thinking straight. You want what I want? Has nothing to do with hope or my past. That’s over. No it’s not.

It can never be over Bo. Not when you have a love like that. And I know that because I have the same exact love with Steve. And you know what? When you are lucky enough to be a person on this earth who finds somebody with that kind of connection is, it’s just so powerful. That you, you’ll fight your way back and you will find it again no matter what the obstacles are.

Kayla’s alive too. Yes. And so was Kate. What do you mean was

Megan killed her at, at least that’s what she told us. Think she might have been lying. I don’t know, maybe, but she took Kate out and, and then Kayla and I heard a gunshot. Guns sound good? Mm. Where is Kayla? Hello? She’s probably with Steve right now. Steve is here too. Yeah. He and I split up to look for Megan.

I found her.

Her job, my pleasure.

You’re alive.

So is Kayla

told you? Oh my God. Oh my God.

So, where the hell is she? Huh? Where’s Kayla?

All right. We need to go find Marlena because I know that she could help you. I don’t need Marlena or Hope or my old life that I know for sure that mechanism in your head because the bow that I know would move heaven and earth to get back to hope and his kids. You’re wasting your breath. Nothing. Oh, really?

Oh really? Are you telling me that you don’t care at all about Sierra or Sean Douglas? We need Chuck Co. What about Claire, your granddaughter? What about your grandson?

I have a grandson. Yes, Sierra had a little baby boy and she named him Little Bo. He’s almost a year. I mean, don’t you wanna meet him? Don’t you wanna hold him? I’m telling you, Bo, you look into that precious little boy’s face and you are gonna be madly in love with him.

I promise you make beautiful girl. I am not gonna let you down when this baby is born. Okay, good. Because to have you there at this time would make me very happy.

Me too.

Hey, pretty great, huh? Sure is. Congratulations. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you.

All right, so I, uh, I should get going. Oh, honey, I love you so much. Oh my gosh. My, this doing such an amazing, amazing surprise. Oh, uh, please give, give Baby Bo and big kiss for me in bed. Of course. And let’s grab dinner before you sell off. Okay. And maybe a couple of desserts. Same cravings. Gosh, of course, of course.

There’s no seafood, of course. Yeah. Oh yeah. So, um, I guess I’ll see you there. Uh, if it’s okay with.

I’d like that.

Kate already tried this. Tried what? Tried what to, did you see if you wanted to meet your grandson? No, she, she went on and on and on about how the real bow was devoted to family and when won. Another chance was. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That’s exactly right. You do love us, all of us. Yeah. But the one person that you have the.

Special close bond with is Sierra, and I can tell you that I bet her biggest wish is that her child will get to know you because she admires you so much. Come on Bo. You have the power to grant that wish. Let’s make it happen.

Where’s Kayla? Where’s my wife? The last I knew she was here, maybe she got restless, found a boat, sailed away. No, Kayla would never leave me. Right on Dr. Rolf Slink. God, right after him. Revive doc. Well, if he’s still lurking around here, I doubt he’ll give me any trouble. All right, let’s have a plan. The plan is you stay here and watch her.

I’m gonna find Caleb and we’ll all go home.

Think about how wonderful it would be to see all the people who love. Who, who have missed you like I have. Have you heard a damn word I’ve said? Excuse me. I don’t wanna see any of those people. And they sure as hell don’t wanna see me. What you talking about? They moved on with their lives. They’re better off thinking I’m dead.

That is not true. True. I’m sick of people gapping at me all the time. I know what I want and I know where I’m going, and that is off of this damn island. And you’re coming with me now. Ah. Leave if you want, but I am staying. I am going to find Marlena.

You’re not going anywhere.

Hey, um, listen, I was thinking maybe I should go along, you know, Maybe I can say a few words. Well, I do appreciate that, but I need somebody here to keep an eye in a place while I’m gone. Are you sure? Yeah, I am sure. All right. Well, you travel safe. Give everyone in my love, Frank will do. Hey, I know this is not easy.

But I want you to know what you’re doing, I think is really beautiful. Well, we’ll keep it short in this week we’ll scatter cays, and then we’ll go raise a glass. Gotta find a, an Irish pub that, uh, serves a good Maree . You know what, I bet when you get back Megan, she’s gonna be in custody I hope. Because whoever killed Key, I’ve looked them in the eye

and let them know that they’re very lucky. I don’t tear their lamb from where.

I love,

well, if this is about Kate, everybody’s gotta understand that Megan brainwashed you. This isn’t about Megan. This is about me and my future. Oh, so hell with everybody else, you’re just going to take off and not look back. We are taking off. No. No, I am not. I am staying. With Marlena, don’t do this. Don’t do what?

Abandon my friend. I’m not doing that. I’m not leaving you here. So Megan can use you as her Guinea pig. Oh. So I should just let Marlena be used as a Guinea pig. I’m not doing it. If you have to go, go. But I am staying here. You are as stubborn as ma ever was. Oh, oh, that makes me proud. So what are you gonna do?

You’re gonna shoot me like you shot Kate

Brady. Women are not usually this way, I have to say. I’m pretty impressed you were able to win over Sierra. I just got her to gimme a chance, that’s all. I’m sorry that she gave you such a hard time in the. But you’re her mom. She wants to protect you. Maybe she needs to. What do you mean? I mean, right now it seems like the deprogramming worked, but what if it didn’t?

I mean, what if, what if? What if I relapse? You won’t. Yeah, we don’t know that.

And until we know for sure, maybe you should just stay away from me. You know? Maybe we shouldn’t. Like hope if I hurt, if I hurt you, Harris. You know, I would’ve thought you would’ve learned by now. I’m more than capable of taking care of myself. Just fine

again, sweetheart. Always I’m that you too would do whatever you had to do to find your way back to each other, wouldn’t you? To be reunited with your one true love? Yes, we would. Than I’m no different from you. Everything I did was for Love. Oh spirits. This is this grand plan of yours, whatever the hell it was just another epic fail.

Cause I’ll tell you how it’s gonna play out. We’re gonna go home and you’re going to prison for life regardless of what you think. I didn’t set out to hurt anyone. I was just trying to mend my broken heart. You don’t have a heart. You prove that when you kill Kate. I didn’t kill her. Kayla. And I heard the.

Perhaps, but I certainly didn’t pull the trigger. Are you saying Ralph pulled the trigger? . He couldn’t shoot a fruit fly, let alone a human being like, who shot key? Oh, wouldn’t you like to know?

Are you here? Sweet.

You

don’t.

I, I really need to get back. Ah, you’ll change your tune once you see where we’re going. , I think this is a really bad idea. This is the first day of my new life. Come on, let’s get you on the boat. Ah.

Oh, ooh, don’t forget salt and pepper. Oh, yes. Mm. Hello? The smell of bacon in the morning. Oh, you dome.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

At the Brady Pub, Roman is on the phone with Lucas and says he’ll let him know if there’s any updates. Eric walks by as Roman hangs up and asks if everything is okay. Roman informs him that he was just updating Lucas on the search for Megan Hathaway. Eric says he’d like an update himself. Roman informs him that Hope has a lead on Megan’s location, thanks to Harris Michaels.

At the ISA Facility in Frederick, Maryland, Harris asks if Hope really means that she felt something for him which she confirms. Hope says she needs to trust him and they have to take it one step at a time slowly. Harris says he’s good with that and they end up kissing until Ciara suddenly bursts in and questions what the hell is going on here. Hope is shocked to see her as she gets up and hugs her, calling it an incredible surprise and says she’s so happy to see her. Hope thought Ciara was still sailing around with Ben and baby Bo. Ciara confirms that she was until a few hours ago and she happened to call Shawn, who told her that Hope was an hour away. Hope calls it a coincidence and repeats that she’s so thrilled to see her as she hugs again. Hope then states that she’s a little confused since this is a secured facility and questions how she got in. Ciara responds that she is her daughter and was able to convince her cousin Andrew to give her clearance. Ciara adds that she got there just in time because she’s there to stop Hope from making the biggest mistake of her life.

Bo packs his bag and thanks Megan for the memories but says he’s going in to his future on his own. Bo then opens the door to leave but runs in to Kayla, who is stunned to see him. Bo says it’s good to see her as Kayla hugs him in shock that her brother is alive.

John bursts in to one of the labs and discovers the tube where Marlena is being held which shocks him. John questions if it’s really her.

Hope tries to explain to Ciara but Ciara argues that Hope told her that she was out hunting down Megan, but she just walked in on Hope kissing the man that Megan hired to kill her. Harris tries to speak but Hope says it’s okay. Ciara argues that it’s absolutely not okay. Ciara remarks that Bo would be rolling over in his grave if he could see Hope right now.

Bo guesses Kayla wasn’t expecting this. Kayla talks about Dr. Rolf telling her that Megan was trying to bring back a lost love but she never thought it was possible as she excitedly hugs him. Kayla sees Megan unconscious on the floor and asks what happened. Bo explains that she tried to inject him with a sedative so he gave her a taste of her own medicine. Kayla tells Bo that Dr. Rolf just tried the same with her so she fought him off and ran. Bo asks if she’s done with this insane experiment too. Kayla questions if Megan has had Bo locked up here all this time. Bo explains that he told her that he was leaving so she put up a fight and lost. Megan then begins waking up so Bo says they better get the hell out of here but Kayla says they can’t because Marlena is here too and they are not going without her.

John tries to open the tube holding Marlena but he can’t. John then finds a button that opens the tube and also sounds the alarm. John touches Marlena and is shocked to find out that she’s breathing and alive.

Eric asks Roman about Harris working for Megan. Roman says apparently Megan brainwashed Harris in to doing her dirty work but the ISA was able to get him out of it, so now he’s doing everything he can to track down his old boss and bring her to justice. Eric doesn’t know after all the damage Harris did last summer, so he questions if they can trust anything Harris says.

Ciara tells Hope that she needs to get away from Harris. Hope tells her that she doesn’t understand. Ciara questions her kissing the man who almost killed them all in Montreal. Ciara tells Hope to explain it to her and hopes that she is using him to get information on Megan. Hope reveals that Harris has already given them a possible location, so John and Steve are checking it out now. Ciara congratulates Hope on getting him to give up his boss but questions if she had to do it by kissing him. Hope stops Ciara and informs her that Harris is not the same man. Ciara calls Harris a monster, who is very skilled at deception and says he might be on Hope’s side but he also might still be loyal to Megan. Ciara argues that Harris has killed three women already and asks if Hope really wants to be one of them.

John tries to get through to Marlena and encourages her to open her eyes. John decides he’s going to find help and runs in to Dr. Rolf. John grabs him and says he’s not surprised to see him here. Dr. Rolf apologizes for interrupting and says he sees John and Marlena are in the middle of a joyous reunion. John says they would be but she’s still unconscious. Dr. Rolf says he’s sure they want time alone so he’ll be on his way. John says he’s not going anywhere and demands that Dr. Rolf wake Marlena up now so they can get the hell out of here.

Bo and Kayla exit the lab and Bo is ready to leave the island but Kayla reminds him that they have to get Marlena. Bo says to forget her because they don’t have time, so Marlena is on her own. Kayla complains that Marlena is unconscious and has no way of protecting herself. Bo says that’s her bad luck and wants to go but Kayla questions him and says they cannot leave their friend. Bo argues that if they go back, they could get stuck on this island. Kayla refuses to leave Marlena with Megan. Kayla asks if Bo knows that Kate is dead. Bo confirms that he does. Kayla asks if Megan told him. Bo says no and reveals that he shot Kate.

Megan comes to and complains that Bo has always been such a bad boy but declares that she’s going to get him back in line. Megan throws the syringe in frustration and goes to leave but is stopped in her tracks by Steve. Megan tells him that she was just on her way out. Steve pulls his gun and says she’s got that right.

John warns Dr. Rolf that if he hurts Marlena, he will splatter him all over the lab. Dr. Rolf assures that his injection will give Marlena a full recovery and she will be a living testament to his scientific genius.

Steve tells Megan that she killed his wife and now he’s going to pay for that. Megan asks if he doesn’t want to catch up. Steve orders her to keep her hands where he can see them and calls her a psychotic bitch who played God with people’s lives. Steve asks why Megan let the women die. Megan says she’d love to bring him up to speed on her plans but she has more pressing matters to tend to. Steve stops her and says she’s not going anywhere but prison for murdering Marlena, Kate, and Kayla which Megan denies doing. Steve explains that Orpheus told them that someone stole the orchid from the secret room in the DiMera Mansion and they know it was her. Megan admits that she might have arranged to have the orchid stolen. Steve says it’s because of her that the three women are gone but Megan says she’s afraid that he has that quite wrong. Megan states that she didn’t steal the orchid to kill them, but to save them. Steve doesn’t know what she is talking about but declares that he’s done listening. Megan stops him and says there is something he needs to know. Megan then reveals that Kayla is alive.

Kayla questions Bo saying he shot and killed Kate. Bo confirms that he did. Kayla says it must be a sick joke. Bo says it’s not and wants to leave but Kayla complains that this doesn’t make any sense as he doesn’t care about Marlena and is now saying he shot Kate. Kayla asks Bo how he could do something like that. Bo asks why she cares. Kayla argues that he took someone’s life and that was his brother’s wife. Bo mentions that Kate told him that she got her hooks back in to Roman. Kayla argues that Kate made Roman incredibly happy and they could’ve been reunited. Bo calls Kate a manipulating snake and says he did Roman a favor and he doesn’t care. Kayla argues that it wasn’t Bo that killed Kate on his own free will and blames it on Megan brainwashing him.

Hope informs Ciara that Harris was brainwashed by Megan, who had been controlling his mind for years and that’s why he did all those horrible things last summer. Ciara questions if he’s now just suddenly magically changed. Hope reveals that Harris has been deprogrammed and went through Hell doing it which is why he’s in the hospital since he collapsed after shock therapy. Hope adds that Harris volunteered for the treatment even though it nearly killed him. Hope assures that Harris has been completely deprogrammed. Ciara argues that she doesn’t know that for sure but Hope says she does because she was there and watched the treatment. Ciara complains that she was there and watched Harris pretend to be in love with Hope while he was actually an assassin. Ciara pleads with Hope to wake up and argues that just because he got zapped doesn’t mean he’s changed. Ciara adds that with navy SEAL training, he could withstand anything. Hope brings up Harris giving Megan’s location. Ciara argues that it could just be a random location on a map and insists that Harris could be faking it, so she doesn’t to risk the chance that he will hurt Hope again. Hope tells Harris that her daughter is as stubborn as her father was, so he’s not going to change her mind. Harris says that’s fine because he agrees with everything Ciara said.

Roman tells Eric that before Megan got a hold of Harris, he was a navy SEAL and a real hero. Roman adds that Harris signed up for ECT which brought back a bunch of memories about where he thinks Megan could be. Roman says with any luck, John and Steve could be closing in on Megan now. Eric is surprised that Roman didn’t want to be a part of that and questions if he doesn’t want to bring Megan back. Roman assures that John and Steve can handle that while he has another job. Roman reveals he has a plane to catch so Eric questions where he is going. Roman states that he’s going to lay Kate to rest.

John complains to Dr. Rolf that nothing is happening and asks if he’s sure he had the right serum in the syringe. John warns that Dr. Rolf is a dead man if Marlena doesn’t wake up. Marlena then wakes up and is shocked to see John. Marlena asks if she’s dreaming and starts to cry as John holds her.

Roman tells Eric that he and Kate talked about taking a honeymoon to Ireland since her heart was set on it. Roman adds that Austin, Carrie, and Billie will meet him there to scatter Kate’s ashes in a special place. Roman mentions that Lucas wishes he could be there too, but he understands they can’t wait for him to get out of prison. Roman says he’s not going to carry the urn around like Anna did for years. Eric points out that Tony ended up alive. Roman wishes that were possible but he’s afraid the outcome won’t be the same for the women they love.

Megan asks Steve if he heard what she said that Kayla is alive. Steve accuses her of lying and just waiting for one of her goons to come save her but that’s not going to happen. Megan asks if he wants to know where Kayla is. Steve argues that Kayla is in a grave because he stood there with their children as they lowered her in to the ground. Megan reveals that wasn’t Kayla. Steve warns her to stop talking. Megan knows he has no reason to believe her but asks if he wants to see for himself because Kayla is here. Megan says she can prove it and offers to take him to Kayla right now.

Kayla tells Bo that Megan did the same brainwashing to John and Steve last year and they did terrible things. Bo responds that he doesn’t follow anyone’s orders. Kayla sees that Bo is trying to break free but Megan could still have a hold on him, so they need to go back and get Marlena who can help Bo get back to the man he used to be. Bo responds that he doesn’t want that because that man died years ago. Kayla argues that whatever Megan did to him, they can fix. Bo says there’s nothing to fix and that he doesn’t need Marlena or anyone. Kayla asks him what about Hope?

Hope questions Harris agreeing with Ciara. Harris gets where she’s coming from and understands her worries because he did terrorize her family. Harris takes responsibility for his actions and is grateful to have a chance to apologize to Ciara in person. Harris says he’s truly sorry and doesn’t blame Ciara one bit for not wanting him near her mother. Hope reminds Ciara of how people reacted when she first got with Ben and how they thought there was no way Ben could ever change, but Ciara believed he deserved a second chance and she believes Harris does too. Ciara says she’s just really worried about her. Ciara adds that ever since Bo died, Hope hasn’t had the best luck in love which Hope agrees with. Hope informs her that she and Harris have decided to take it one step at a time, slowly. Hope points out that Harris put his life on the line to get deprogrammed in order to help her find Megan and it nearly killed him. Ciara acknowledges that was very brave of Harris and he thanks her. Ciara asks about the location Harris gave to John and Steve which he confirms as a possible location. Hope says they need to hear what John and Steve find. Hope then asks Ciara to tell her everything and fill her in on baby Bo. Ciara reveals that first she has good news and announces that baby Bo is going to be a big brother as she is pregnant. Hope excitedly hugs her and calls it great news as she congratulates her.

Dr. Rolf remarks that it seems he’s the third wheel so he quietly exits. John cries to Marlena that he lost her. Marlena responds that he should know by now, that’s impossible. John asks if she’s sure she’s okay. Marlena says she is now that he’s here. John helps Marlena out of the tube and then notices the other tubes, so he asks if she had company. Marlena confirms that Megan had been keeping others captive as well.

Kayla tells Bo that she can’t imagine what he’s been through, but he survived and she’s sure a lot of what drove him was his feelings for Hope. Bo argues that it had nothing to do with Hope as it was Megan who saved him and cured his brain tumor, but the downside is that Megan has this crazy ass fantasy that they belong together. Kayla calls that impossible because Bo belongs with Hope. Bo calls that ancient history. Kayla says Bo might have been gone but the love is still there. Kayla argues that Bo isn’t thinking straight. Bo responds that what he wants has nothing to do with Hope or his past because that’s over. Kayla tells him it can never be over when you have a love like that and she knows because she has it with Steve. Kayla talks about when you’re lucky enough to find someone to have that connection with, then you will fight through any obstacle for it.

Marlena informs John that Kayla is alive too and so was Kate, but Megan said she killed her. They wonder if Megan might have been lying about that. Marlena says Megan did take Kate out and then they heard a gunshot. John admits that doesn’t sound good. Marlena wonders where Kayla is. John says she’s probably with Steve now. Marlena questions Steve being there too. John confirms they split up to look for Megan. Steve then brings Megan in to the lab with his gun and announces that he found her. Steve walks in and is shocked to see Marlena is alive. Steve tells John to keep an eye on Megan which he does as Steve hugs Marlena and breaks down crying. Marlena reveals to Steve that Kayla is alive too. Megan says she told him. Steve is shocked and asks Megan where the hell Kayla is then.

Kayla tells Bo that they need to go find Marlena because she’s sure that she could help him. Bo repeats that he doesn’t need Marlena, Hope, or his old life. Kayla knows Megan did something to him because the Bo that she knows would move heaven and earth to get to Hope and his kids. Bo tells her that she’s wasting her breath. Kayla questions if Bo is saying he doesn’t care about Ciara and Shawn. Bo insists that they need to go. Kayla asks about his granddaughter Claire and his grandson. Bo questions having a grandson. Kayla informs him that Ciara had a son and named him little Bo, who is about a year old. Kayla questions if Bo doesn’t want to meet him and hold him. Kayla insists that Bo will look in to his grandson’s face and be madly in love.

Hope promises Ciara that she won’t let her down when her baby is born. Ciara says having her there this time would make her very happy. Harris agrees that it’s great news and congratulates Ciara. Ciara thanks him and says she should get going. Hope hugs her and says she loves her so much. Hope calls it an amazing surprise and sends her love to baby Bo and Ben. Hope suggests they grab dinner before she leaves. Ciara agrees and guesses she’ll see Harris there. Harris agrees if it’s okay with Hope, who admits she would like that.

Bo tells Kayla that Kate already tried this and went on about how the real Bo was devoted to family and would want another chance with them. Kayla says it’s right that Bo loves all of them and the person he had the most special, close bond with is Ciara. Kayla talks about how Ciara’s biggest wish would be for her child to get to know Bo because she admired him so much. Kayla says that Bo has the power to grant that wish and encourages him to make it happen.

Steve questions Megan about where Kayla is. Megan responds that last she knew, Kayla was here. Megan suggests maybe Kayla got restless, found a boat, and sailed away. Marlena argues that Kayla would never leave her here. John mentions running in to Dr. Rolf, who slipped away right after reviving Marlena. Steve doubts Dr. Rolf will give him any trouble if he’s still lurking around. John asks what the plan is. Steve tells John to stay and watch Megan while he goes to find Kayla and then they will all go home.

Kayla urges Bo to think about how wonderful it would be to see all of the people who love and miss him. Bo asks if she’s heard anything he’s said. Bo remarks that he doesn’t want to see any of those people and they sure as hell don’t want to see him. Bo argues that they moved on with their lives and are better off thinking he’s dead. Kayla disagrees but Bo says he’s sick of hearing it. Bo declares that he knows what he wants and where he’s going which is off of this damn island. Bo orders Kayla to come with him. Kayla tells Bo to leave if he wants, but she is staying and going to find Marlena. Kayla turns to go back inside but Bo pulls his gun on her and warns that she’s not going anywhere.

Eric offers to go with Roman to Ireland. Roman appreciates that but says he needs him to keep an eye on the Pub while he’s gone. Eric hugs Roman and tells him to travel safe and send his love. Eric knows it’s not easy but he thinks what he’s doing is really beautiful. Roman says they will keep it short and sweet, scatter Kate’s ashes, and then go raise a glass at an Irish Pub. Eric bets that when Roman gets back, Megan will be in custody. Roman hopes so because he wants to look whoever killed Kate in the eye to let them know they are very lucky that he doesn’t tear them limb from limb. Roman and Eric hug goodbye as Roman then exits with his bag packed.

Kayla tells Bo that if this is about Kate, everyone will understand that Megan brainwashed him. Bo says this isn’t about Megan but about him and his future. Kayla questions him just taking off without looking back. Bo says they are taking off. Kayla refuses and repeats that she’s staying with Marlena. Bo tells her not to do this. Kayla refuses to abandon her friend while Bo refuses to let Kayla become Megan’s next guinea pig. Kayla questions if she’s supposed to let Marlena be and repeats that Bo can go but she is staying here. Bo calls Kayla as stubborn as their mom ever was which Kayla is proud of. Kayla asks if Bo is going to shoot her like he shot Kate.

Hope sits back with Harris and tells him that Brady women are not easily swayed, so she’s impressed that he won Ciara over. Harris says he just got her to give him a chance. Hope is sorry that Ciara gave him such a hard time at first. Harris understands Ciara wants to protect her mom and adds that maybe she needs to. Harris says right now it seems the deprogramming worked, but asks what if he relapses. Hope says it won’t but Harris argues that she doesn’t know that. Harris states that until they know for sure, maybe she should stay away from him. Harris worries about hurting Hope again. Hope thought he would’ve learned by now that she’s more than capable of taking care of herself as they hold hands.

John and Marlena talk about being together again. Megan complains that they would do whatever they had to do to find their way back to each other and be reunited with their one true love. Megan argues that she’s no different because everything she did was for love. John tells Megan that whatever her plan was failed because they are going home and she’s going to prison for life. Megan says regardless of what they think, she didn’t set out to hurt anyone and was just trying to mend her broken heart. Marlena argues that Megan doesn’t have a heart and she proved that by killing Kate. Megan responds that she didn’t kill her. Marlena says that she and Kayla heard the gunshot. Megan insists that she didn’t pull the trigger. Marlena asks if she’s saying Dr. Rolf pulled the trigger which Megan laughs at. John asks who shot Kate then. Megan says wouldn’t he like to know.

Steve finds his way outside and calls out for Kayla but there’s no answer. Steve then looks down and finds Kayla’s necklace on the ground. Steve cries that she really is alive as he picks it up. Steve says he’s coming and walks off.

Kayla tells Bo that she really needs to go back. Bo says she’ll change her tune once she sees where they’re going. Kayla calls it a bad idea while Bo calls it the first day of the rest of his life. Bo then takes Kayla to get on the boat, leaving behind his bag and the Orchid is with it.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

In Annapolis, Maryland, Ben and Ciara are in a hotel watching over their baby Bo. They talk about being back on ground in the US after sailing around the world in their boat and being happy to be home.

Hope tells Harris that she’s sorry but she has to get going. Harris starts to get up but he collapses. Hope rushes to check on him and calls for help.

Dr. Rolf watches over Marlena and Kayla in their lab tubes. Dr. Rolf wonders which of them will be his next guinea pig

Steve exits the Brady Pub and calls John, telling him to meet him at the airfield right now because he just talked to Hope and has a potential location on Megan Hathaway.

Megan enters the lab and questions what Bo is looking at. Bo says it’s notes on him. Megan blows it off as just pages of scientific mumbo jumbo, but Bo calls it thought provoking with observations of his past. Megan argues that his past is long gone, so he needs to focus on their future together. Megan offers to get rid of the file but Bo says now that he finished reading it, he won’t forget about it. Megan asks if he means how she saved his life. Bo says it’s more about who he was, what he wanted, and who his father is. Megan tells him to forget the file. Bo slams it down and asks if that’s an order. Megan calls it just a suggestion, knowing how he feels about orders. Bo mocks the idea of her looking out for him and his best interests. Megan brings up the lengths she’s gone to protect him, so she doesn’t understand how he could be questioning her motives. Bo argues that she ordered him to kill, so he thinks she might have a more sinister agenda. Megan claims that wasn’t an order, but also a suggestion because she didn’t want them to have any distractions. Bo compares it to a permanent Do Not Disturb sign. Megan complains that the file has made Bo very negative. Megan says she just hoped they could talk. Bo says that’s good because there is something he’d like to talk about. Megan asks what it is. Bo responds that he’s leaving.

Ciara tells Ben that she is really happy to be home, though technically they aren’t home yet. Ciara suggests making a pit stop while they are in the US. Ben guesses she wants to back to Salem. Ciara confirms that they can fly out and see Shawn and her grandparents. They joke about Julie’s e-mail, wanting to see her great grandson. Ciara asks what Ben says to bringing baby Bo back home. Ben agrees that it would be great to see everybody again, but points out that it won’t be the same without Marlena being there.

Dr. Rolf jokes about using a nursery rhyme to pick between who he will experiment on between Marlena and Kayla.

John and Steve get on the plane. John asks about Hope getting through to Harris Michaels. Steve explains that it took some help from the ISA, but Harris finally remembered a facility in the Mediterranean where Dr. Rolf and Megan had worked on him and a nautical chart on the wall where he recalled the coordinates. John asks what Steve thinks. Steve says it’s very possible that Megan holed up in this location.

Dr. Rolf wakes Kayla up and says she is coming out from a very strong sedative. Dr. Rolf says that Marlena is still sleeping but they won’t be needing her participation because today is Kayla’s lucky day which she questions. Dr. Rolf tells her about his serum and he can’t prove it’s effectiveness without a human trial. Dr. Rolf explains that Kate was to be the first subject but she destroyed his initial batch, so Megan had no choice but to eliminate her.

Ciara tells Ben that they both know how much Marlena did for them and admits it will be so strange to go back to Salem without her there. Ben brings up Kayla and Kate as well. Ciara says it all seems so unreal. Ben says they were gone for so long that they missed the funerals which is why he’s having a hard time believing that Marlena is really gone, since he never got the chance to say goodbye to her. Ben asks how to thank someone for literally saving your life. Ciara encourages that he always finds the words. Ben doesn’t know if he will find the words when he sees John, Steve, and Roman. Ciara says they will just have to send them their love. Ben mentions having a dream about trying to save Marlena’s life, like she saved his. Ben says he doesn’t remember all the details but that he knew she was going to survive. Ben adds that he hated waking up from that dream. Ben points out that if it wasn’t for Marlena, he wouldn’t have Ciara or their baby Bo. Ciara encourages that Marlena saw the person Ben really is and at least she got to meet Bo and see how happy they are which Ben credits Marlena for. Ciara says she suddenly feels like they are on the boat again. Ben relates to still getting used to being on land. Ciara talks about feeling uneasy so Ben encourages her to eat but Ciara instead runs to the bathroom.

Harris wakes up in a hospital bed with Hope at his side. Hope asks how he’s feeling. Harris responds that he’s not sure and asks what happened. Hope informs him that he collapsed, so she was worried that the treatment caused permanent damage but the doctor assured that it was just a delayed reaction. Hope adds that the doctor wants to keep an eye on him but doesn’t think he has anything to worry about and that he’ll be okay. Harris thanks Hope for staying. Hope admits that he scared her as he looked pale while lying on the floor. Harris says obviously he feels better now. Harris mentions being thirsty so Hope gets him a drink and talks about how the treatment was hard to watch, but he came through with the coordinates so Steve and John are on their way now. Harris tells Hope that she should get going since he knows how important it is for her to find Megan, but Hope says she’s not going anywhere.

Megan questions Bo saying he’s leaving. Bo complains that he has been in this hellhole for months, so he’s getting out. Megan reminds Bo that he’s been here for years and that’s why he’s still alive. Megan asks if that’s not good enough for him. Bo calls this a cell and says he needs to get back out there because he’s not going to find what he’s looking for while stuck in here. Megan argues that she’s given him everything he could possibly want. Bo responds that he doesn’t know what he wants, but he has a lot of questions about who he is, so he has to go find himself. Megan mocks the cliche of one findng themselves. Bo insists that he has to go some place where he can think, breathe, and see the sky to figure things out for himself. Megan says she can answer anything he wants to know but Bo says he has to get these answers himself, so he’s leaving. Megan responds that she’s afraid that she can’t let him do that.

Ciara comes out of the bathroom and tells Ben that she’s okay now but asks him not to mention food again. Ben can’t believe that she’s gotten sea sick after they got back to land. Ciara says she’s not sea sick, so Ben asks what it is then. Ben suggests postponing their trip to Salem and get her to a doctor. Ciara then reveals that she realized she was late about a week ago. Ciara announces that she thinks she might be pregnant.

Jason asks if Hope doesn’t want to find Megan. Hope asks what if Harris collapses again. Harris points out that she said the doctor said he would be fine. Hope argues that what he did took a tremendous toll and even the doctor wanted to stop, but he insisted they keep going. Harris tells her not to make him out to be a hero and says he only did it so Megan doesn’t get away with it. Harris argues that Megan used him to hurt people, so he wants to bring her down as much as Hope does. Hope says she definitely wants to bring her down, but she didn’t nearly get herself killed in the process. Harris states that if it helps him get his life back, it was worth it and this is the first time in a long time that he feels like it might actually happen. Hope asks if he’s thought about what he might want to do with that life. Harris admits he doesn’t know and says the navy was his life but doesn’t think the feeling would be mutual after he was compromised. Hope suggests an arrangement could be made. Harris says he knows she’s tight with the ISA director but doesn’t think even she could pull those strings. Hope says she wouldn’t mind trying. Harris says he appreciates that but he knows he would like to spend more time with her.

Steve shows John the chart that Harris remembers seeing in the room. Steve bets somewhere on the map is the lab’s location. Steve points out a chain of 30 islands on the map which John says they have to narrow down. John suggests cross referencing the islands with DiMera properties. Steve finds that it doesn’t look like Stefano bought any properties. John says he figured it wouldn’t be that simple and says it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack. Steve points out that they can eliminate some of the islands as impossible to get to. Steve says the lab has to be in a fairly large facility which most of the islands couldn’t support. Steve declares there’s only one that has any infrastructure of that size. Steve points out that would be a military base.

Kayla questions Dr. Rolf saying that Megan eliminated Kate. Dr. Rolf tells her that Kate is dead so it’s not a good idea to resist anything. Dr. Rolf says he improved his serum, so Kayla will soon ask for another dose because it will give her a refresher. Kayla questions what it will refresh. Dr. Rolf says his serum is a fountain of youth that will make her young again. Kayla says she doesn’t want that. Dr. Rolf argues that most people would spend a fortune to go back in time. Kayla questions what he’s planning to do. Dr. Rolf repeats that he will make her young again. Kayla asks what if the serum doesn’t work. Dr. Rolf is afraid it won’t be pretty but he has confidence that won’t be the case. Dr. Rolf talks about testing it on a lab rat but says Megan will only be satisfied when he proves to her that a human subject can survive the injection. Dr. Rolf says he could make a fortune on this serum. Kayla questions Megan wanting to recapture her youth. Dr. Rolf explains that it’s in the hopes of capturing a lost love.

Bo tells Megan that he’s done following her orders, so he’s leaving now. Megan clarifies that she just meant he can’t leave now because Dr. Rolf is finishing a new batch of his serum. Megan tells Bo that this serum will give them back all of those years that were stolen from them where they were apart. Megan asks if Bo wants a chance to live the life they would’ve lived if her mother hadn’t interfered and kept them apart. Bo refuses to go back to that and declares he has to look forward to his future. Megan argues that his future is here with her but Bo says she’s not going to decide that for him. Megan calls him an ingrate. Bo tells her that he really appreciates everything she’s done for him but he cannot give what she’s asking of him. Megan says she understands. Megan asks Bo to just stay tonight so they can have one last dinner, say a proper goodbye, and then he can leave in the morning. Bo says no and that it’s best for both of them if he leaves now. Megan responds that she does have one last order for him then. Megan grabs her syringe and tells Bo to be a man about it.

John and Steve talk about a military base being on the island and how Harris is ex-navy so he could’ve been stationed there, but the place is abandoned now. Steve finds out that it was active in the 50s as a research facility. John decides that he will talk to the pilot about landing on that island. John adds that if Megan is there, they will need the element of surprise because they don’t know what the hell they are walking in to.

Kayla questions Dr. Rolf saying that Megan is hoping to recapture a lost love. He says she is determined. Kayla argues that the only love of her life that she knows about is Bo and he’s dead. Kayla then stops and asks if Bo is alive and if he is the one who was in the chamber. Dr. Rolf questions why she would think that. Kayla asks who else Megan would want to revive if it’s not Stefano and it would have to be someone she would move heaven and earth to bring back. Dr. Rolf remarks that she has a wild imagination.

Bo questions Megan about what is in her syringe. Megan calls it an insurance policy because she cannot let him walk out the door. Bo says he’s not going to let her inject him with the fountain of youth serum. Megan clarifies that’s not what this is because Dr. Rolf still needs to test that. Megan says this is just a sedative. Bo says it’s not going to happen and tells her not to do this. Megan questions why Bo is doing this. Megan argues that it will just give Bo a slight attitude adjustment and when Dr. Rolf is done, they will be on the same page and Bo will have realized what they had and could still have. Bo responds that he doesn’t want any part of it. Megan insists that he will want her as much as she wants him, when Dr. Rolf is finished.

Harris tells Hope that they wasted so much of the year they were together by acting like a couple but just playing a big game. Harris says now that they have been given another chance, he wants to get to know the real her and for her to get to know the real him. Harris says that’s what he wants, but he totally understands if she doesn’t feel the same way because he knows he put her through Hell and terrorized her family, so she probably wants nothing to do with him.

Ciara takes a pregnancy test and they talk about how quickly Ben went to get the test. Ciara asks if Ben is nervous because he thinks this is a good thing or a bad thing, since they didn’t really plan this and Bo isn’t even a year old, so they will be on a ship with a toddler. Ben responds that it’s not a good thing, it’s a great thing. Ben points out that they don’t even know yet if she’s pregnant. Ciara then checks the pregnancy test and reveals that she is pregnant as they excitedly hug. Ben can’t believe they are having another baby. Ciara asks if he’s actually happy about this. Ben assures that he is and they have talked about having another baby. Ciara points out that it’s so soon. Ciara calls Ben a great dad and says it will be so nice for Bo to have a sibling. Ciara realizes she has to call Shawn to tell him they are coming to Salem. Ben asks about Hope. Ciara says that’s a good idea, so she’ll see if she can come down from Montreal. Ciara calls Shawn and informs them that they are back in the states at a hotel in Maryland and they might stop by Salem if he’s not busy. Ciara says she misses him and will call Hope to see if she can fly down too. Ciara is then surprised when Shawn tells her where Hope is.

Hope reminds Harris of telling him yesterday that some of their moments were real and admits that she did feel something for him. Harris wasn’t sure she meant that as he thought she would say anything to convince him to be deprogrammed. They joke about Romeo and Juliet not having these type of conversations and not being secret agents. Hope understands that Harris thought she was working an angle but confirms she’s not right now, as this is just them for real.

John and Steve arrive on the island with their guns raised. John says the base has to be around here somewhere. Steve points out a building and they move ahead.

Kayla tells Dr. Rolf that it’s not possible since Bo died in Hope’s arms. Dr. Rolf points out that Kayla died in Steve’s arms and Marlena died in John’s. Kayla asks if he’s telling her the truth that Bo is alive. Dr. Rolf says he’s not telling her anything and plans to inject her with the serum but she grabs his arm to stop him.

Megan tries to inject Bo but he grabs her and says he doesn’t want to hurt her. Megan questions why he’s doing this and if he doesn’t want them to be together. Megan brings up curing his brain tumor and bringing him back to life, complaining that this is how he repays her. Bo argues that they were over years ago and were never meant to be together. Megan asks if he’s going to go be with Hope and declares that she’s not going to let that happen. Megan and Bo struggle over the syringe until she accidentally injects herself and passes out in Bo’s arms.

Kayla fights Dr. Rolf over the syringe and suggests he test the serum on himself. Dr. Rolf questions how she is doing this when she shouldn’t have the strength from the sedative. Kayla remarks that he should’ve given her a bigger dose. Kayla fights him off and escapes the lab while Dr. Rolf chases after her.

John and Steve enter the base with their guns. John suggests they split up to cover more ground.

Harris asks if Hope really means that which she confirms. Hope says she needs to trust him and they have to take it one step at a time slowly. Harris says he’s good with that and they end up kissing until Ciara suddenly bursts in and questions what the hell is going on here.

John bursts in to one of the labs and discovers the tube where Marlena is being held which shocks him.

Bo packs his bag and thanks Megan for the memories but says he’s going in to his future on his own. Bo then opens the door to leave but runs in to Kayla, who is stunned to see him.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Can’t believe he’s still sleeping. I mean, neither. I mean, with all that commotion, Getting off the ball, checking in the hotel. I thought for sure little man was gonna wake up screaming his head off. Yeah. Well you think that after 285 days at sea you’d be just as happy as we are to be back on Sara Pharma in the US

is your mommy right? Little man? You happy to be home?

Listen, I’m sorry, but I’ve gotta get. Yeah. No, I know. I know you. Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris. How would it help it? Here Paris. Wake up Paris.

And then there were two saw since Kate. Instead, which of you will be my next Guinea pig?

John, I need you to meet me at the airfield right now. I just talked to Hope. I have a possible location on Megan Hathaway.

You seem eng. What are you looking at? False notes on me. Why isn’t it just a page after page of scientific mumbo jumbo? No. What kind of thought provoking is observations of my past. Well, your past is long gone. We need to focus on your future. Our future together. Look, I’ll get rid of that. You don’t need anymore.

No, that’s fine. Fine. Now that I’ve finished it, it’s uh, you know, on the hard drive, won’t forget it, a bit about how I saved your life now, the bit about who I was, what I wanted, who my father is.

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

Your lack of introspection has always been one of your most attractive features. Look, forget the file.

Is that an order? It’s just a suggestion. Knowing how you feel about orders would’ve been counterproductive if made to issue one, right? Because you’re always looking out for me, all in my best interest, given the lengths that I have gone to, to rescue you and protect you. I don’t understand how you could possibly be questioning my motives.

Really. Let me think about that. Um, you order me to kill, to kill, I, I don’t know. I might. I think you have a more sinister agenda. That wasn’t an order, that was also a suggestion, a friendly suggestion. I, I didn’t want you and I to have any distractions. Right? Kind of like a do not disturb, shine, a permanent do not disturb a.

That vial has made you very negative and oppositional.

I was just hoping that we could talk. Oh, well, good. Because there’s something. I would like to talk about, what is it? I’m leaving

as beautiful as Turks and Caicos was. I’m actually really happy to be back home, although I guess we’re not technically home yet. Oh, not unless you have property on the waterfront of Annapolis, Maryland that I don’t know about. No. . I’m pretty sure our boat is about as much waterfront as I can handle.

Mm-hmm. Um, , but actually while we are in the us I was thinking, what if we make a little pit stop? Oh, let me guess. You want to go back to Salem? Mm-hmm. . We can fly out and we can see Sean and my grandparents. I mean, you read Grandma Julie’s last email, she basically threatened us with bodily harm if we didn’t bring him home for his first birthday.

Yeah, I think her exact words were that if I don’t see my great grandson soon, Doug and I will be water skiing to meet you. . Yes. And as much as I would literally love to see that, I think a two hour flight would just be easier for all of us. So what do you say you wanna bring Bill back home and show him what he’s been missing?

It would be really great to see everybody again. Mm-hmm. , and obviously they’d fall all over Bo. Mm-hmm.

But

it’s not gonna be the same without Dr. Evans being there.

Should I flip a coin? Ah, not possible. No currency on this island.

Any mini mining mo catch a doctor. How does the rest of it go? Ah, no matter I’ll improvise. A chief of staff is good for a laugh, but to shrink, we really make you sink. Out goes by o you. Hmm.

So hope’s efforts paid off. Huh? She got here is to give up Megan’s location. Yeah, well, took quite a bit of effort and an assist from the isa, but he was finally able to remember some kind of facility in the Mediterranean where Rolf and Megan first programmed it. Hmm. Better. He remembered Z, an nautical chart on the wall, and he recalled the latitude and longitude markers.

Hope looked up the coordinates. She sent me this.

So what are you thinking? Partner? Megan’s location can be somewhere on this map. After Megan fled Caracas, it’s very possible she hole up in this location.

Ah, Dr. Johnson, welcome back to Len of the Living yet again. Let go of me. Let go. Don’t try to. You’re coming out as the effects of a very strong sedative. Your limbs won’t be fully functioning for some time yet. Ah, I know she’s still sleeping, but we won’t be needing her participation as I’ve determined that today is your lucky day,

Well, not as a case. Maybe what he, what do you mean lucky? I have developed a miraculous new. One that, if not for the irrational influence of politics would be certain to win a Nobel Prize. But so I have no doubt of my genius. I’m afraid I cannot prove its effectiveness without a human trial. Human trial.

Your friend, Kate, first to be the first subject, but she destroyed my initial badge. Megan had no choice but to eliminate.

We both know how much Marlena did for you, for us, actually, and it’s gonna be so strange to go back to Salem without her there. I think it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be more than strange. It’s just, it’s terribly sad. And you’re on Kayla and Kate. Oh my God, it all just seems so unreal. You know, when we were gone for so long, I mean, we missed all the funerals.

I think maybe that’s why I’m having a hard time believing that Dr. Evans is really gone. I never got the chance to say goodbye to her. And I mean, even if I did, I don’t even know what I would’ve said, Sierra. I mean, how do you thank somebody for literally saving your life? You would’ve found the words, babe.

You always do. Yeah. Well, I don’t know if I’m gonna find the words when I see John, your Uncle Steve, your Uncle Roman. I mean, I, I don’t know. I guess we can just tell him how much we cared about Marlena and about Kayla and Kate and just let them know that our hearts go out to.

You know, I had another dream about Dr. Evans last night. I don’t, I don’t like even remember all the details, but I was with her when she was dying and, uh, all I remember is that I was desperately trying to save her life, like, like she saved mine. And it, it really wasn’t a bad dream, I guess it was a good dream because like I said, I, I can’t remember all the details.

I just remember. She opened her eyes,

she smiled at me and uh, I knew she was gonna survive.

Hated waking up from that train. I know you did.

You know, if it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have, you wouldn’t have bow.

Well, Marlena saw the man that you are, she saw the person that you really are, and at least she got to meet though, and she got to hold him and she saw how happy we are,

and that was because of her.

Ben? Yeah, I am. I suddenly have this feeling like we’re on, on the boat again, like we’re on the water. It’s, it’s normal. Yeah. Trust me, I don’t feel that great either. And I don’t think we got our, our land legs back yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That must be it. It’s just, um, it kinda feels like rocking and swaying and it’s making me really dizzy.

They’re probably just gonna eat something. No, I don’t think that’s what I need. Are you sure? Mm. Because you know this hotel is an amazing restaurant. Mm-hmm. , I’ll just want a room service. They have some amazing seafood. They got these clam cakes and these fried clams that are supposed to be unbelievable.

Was there something I said,

Hey, hi.

How are you feeling?

Not sure what happened. You collapsed. I was really worried. The treatment had caused some kind of permanent damage, but the doctor, um, looked you over and assured me it was just a delayed reaction. He wants to keep an eye on you for a little while, make sure it doesn’t happen again. But really he didn’t think, he didn’t think you had anything to worry about.

You’re okay. That’s good to know.

Thank you for staying. Of course. I stayed. You scared.

You scared me. You were so pale Harris lying there on the floor. I feel better now, obviously. Yeah. Thank God obviously. I, I am a little thirsty. Yeah, of course. Treatment was so hard to watch. I can’t even imagine what it must have been like to actually experience it.

Thanks. But Harris, you came through those co. John and Steve have pinpointed the location of the lab as we speak right now, and then you should get going. I know how important it’s for you to find Megan. No, I’m, I’m not going anywhere.

What do you mean you’re leaving? What are you talking about, Ben, in this hell hole for months. So I’m getting out. You’ve been here for years and that’s why you’re still. . Is that not good enough for you? Couldn’t. It’s a cell, so I gotta get back out there. Out where? Huh? Where are you going? I don’t know, but I’m not gonna find what I’m looking for.

Stuck in here. And what is that? I have given you everything that you could possibly want. That’s just the thing. I don’t know what I want hope. All I know is I have a lot of questions like about who I am, so I just gotta get out there so I can find myself. Such a cliche. You have to find yourself. Do not mock me.

I am not mocking you. But I just think that when people feel that they have to find themselves, that that is just a bit ridiculous, frankly, self indulgent. Not to mention the fact that you hardly have to travel anywhere to know what you want in life. Haven’t you ever heard the expression wherever you go, there you are.

Well, I don’t want to be here. Hey, I just gotta, I gotta get out there, find some place where I can think and breathe. Maybe see the sky. Good.

Just have to leave here so I can figure things out for myself though. I can tell you anything you wanna know. No, you can’t. I’m the only one who can answer these questions, so I’m leaving here. I’m afraid I cannot let you do that.

Are you okay? Well, yeah, I am now. Please the love of God. Don’t mention food again, so, okay. Really. See, I can’t believe this right now. We just traveled the world in a boat. We get back to land and you get seasick. I am not seasick. Well then, what is it? Get a little bug down on the Caribbean or something.

You don’t feel hot. Maybe we should postpone going to Salem. Get you a doctor. No, no, I, I didn’t get a bug. I did not come down with the flu. Huh? Then what’s wrong?

Okay. So, um, I didn’t wanna say anything until I knew I was sure, but about a week ago I realized that I was late.

What are you saying? Yeah, I, I am, I, uh, I think I might be pregnant.

What do you mean? Don’t you wanna find Megan? What if you collapsed again? You just said the doctor said I was gonna be fine. Paris. What you just did, what you’ve been through obviously took a tremendous toll. You were in a lot of pain. Even the doctor wanted to stop, but you insisted she keep going. Okay.

Don’t, don’t, don’t make me out to be some kind of hero, okay? I did it because, I don’t want Megan to get away with it. She brainwashed me. She used me to hurt people. I wanna bring her down as much as you do. Oh, I don’t know about that. I mean, I definitely wanna bring her down, but I didn’t nearly get myself killed in the process.

Well, if it will gimme my life back, it was worth it. And the first time, this is the first time in a, in a long time, I feel like that actually might happen. Have you thought about what you might wanna do with that life? Honestly, I don’t know. Navy’s my life. I mean, I like to get my career back, but considering how I was compromised, I don’t think the feeling would be mutual.

Well, maybe an arrangement could be made. I know you’re close with the ISA director, but I don’t know if even you could pull those strings. I wouldn’t mind trying. I appreciate that. But here’s what I do know.

I’d like to spend more time with you.

So this is the chart that Michaels remember seeing in the room where he was brainwashed. What’s the number of this notable? Map 26 4. It might be too much to hope for, but I betcha. Somewhere on this map is the lab’s location. So all these little dots right here, these indicate islands in the Mediterranean, right?

Yeah. And that island chain contains about 30 islands. 30. Yeah. Man, we gotta narrow that down. Partner. Well, hey, cross reference. These chain of islands with any of D’S properties.

Okay. No. It doesn’t look like Stephano bought any property in this region. It’s not. Couldn’t be that simple. Great. So now we’re looking for a needle in two haystacks. Well, wait a minute. Maybe we can eliminate some of these right off.

All right. This whole group right here, it’d be almost impossible to approach because they’re all surrounded by Rocky Schoz. All right, good to know. All right, we’ll toss those out. What about, what about this group over here still leaves that wherever this lab is, it has to be housed in a fairly large facility.

Most of these islands couldn’t support that. In fact,

there’s only one that has any infrastructure that size. What kind of infrastructure

will that be? A military base.

Megan eliminated her. Are you, are you saying that Yes, Kate is dead and the takeaway is that it’s not a good idea to resist? Well, anything. Now moving right along. After Kate destroyed my initial batch, I went back to the drawing pat and actually improved it so soon. I’m sure you’ll be asking for another dose because this is going to give you quite a refresher.

And what is it that that’s going to refresh? All of you. My serum is a literal fountain of youth. Rev is intended. It’ll turn back the clock. Make you young again, but I don’t want that. Oh, no . Well, you certainly are in the minority. Most people would spend the fortune to go back in time, and as I say, youth is wasted on the young.

What are you planning to do? I just told you I’m going to make you young in Newby. Although you certainly are still very beautiful and desirable, could you, could you just stay on topic? What if that serum doesn’t work? I’m afraid it won’t be pretty, but I have every confidence that won’t be the case I had.

My results were astounding when I tested it on a Guinea pig for actually a spectacular lab rat. I named Skippy, but Megan will only be satisfied when I prove to her that the human subject can survive the I. It’s for five, which I’m sure you do. And once I patents his formula, you like a bigger fortune. So Megan wants to recapture her youth.

Most of us do. With a rare exception of you apparently. Except in Megan’s case, it isn’t nearly vanity. It’s in the hopes of recapturing a lost love. I’m done following your orders. I’m leaving. No, don’t, don’t be happy, Bo. I, I just. That you can’t leave now bra. He’s just finished a new batch of his serum.

Don’t you see this serum is going to give us back all of those years that were stolen from us all of the years that we were apart. Don’t you want a chance to live the life that we, we were meant to live, that we would’ve lived if my mother hadn’t interfered and kept us apart? No, no. There’s. I am not going back to that.

I have to look forward to my future with me. Here with me. You’re not going to decide that for me. You in great. Megan. Megan. Look, I really appreciate everything you’ve done for me, for what you’re asking of me. I’m sorry. Sorry. I cannot give,

of course. I understand.

What about you? Just stay tonight and we can have one last dinner and then we can save a property pie. You can leave in the morning. No. Best for both of us. If I leave now,

well then I’m afraid I do have one last order for you,

so be a man about it.

There’s a military base on the island. Hmm, let me think about this. Not a bad place to look for a lab considering Harris was ex-Navy. So what do you think might have been stationed there? Well, maybe at one time. Place is deserted now. Yeah, it’s abandoned for how long? Let’s see.

Well, we’re definitely active in the fifties. Oh. As a research facility. We just found our needle in the haystack. I’m gonna talk to the pilot and see if we can put this plane down. Outta the way runway on Island 26th. If Hathaway is there, we need to be a little bit of surprise cause we don’t know what the hell we’re gonna walk into.

Megan is hoping to recapture a lost love more than just hoping. She is determined. But the only love of hers I know about is my brother Bo, and he’s dead.

Oh my God. Is Paul alive? Is that it? Is? Is he the one that was in that chamber? Would you think that just because, who else would Megan want to revive? I mean, she already said it wasn’t Stefano. I mean, it would have to be somebody that she would move heaven and earth to bring back. Oh my dear Dr. Johnson, you do have a vile imagination.

Oh God.

Okay. What’s in there this time? A little insurance. I cannot let you walk out that door. I am not gonna let you inject me with that fountain of you serum. Oh, that’s not what that is. I’ve told you that Ralph needs to test that still. This is just a. Yeah, well, not gonna happen. I just thought you would be a little bit more pliable for all.

That’s all. Don’t do this. Why are you doing this? You see? He’s just going to give you a slight attitude adjustment, and when he’s done, you and I will be on the same page. Let’s say you’ll have realized what we had and what we can still. No, don’t want any part of it. You will. You will. When he is finished, you’ll want me as much as I want you.

You know, that year we were together mean, we just wasted so much of it. We were acting like we were a couple and we were just, just playing a big game. But now that I’ve been,

we’ve been given another chance.

I want to, I want to get to know the real you.

I want you to get to know the real me.

I mean, it’s, you know, that’s what I want, and I totally understand. If you don’t, if you don’t feel the same way.

I know, I,

I know I put you through hell. I terrorized your family.

You probably, you probably want nothing to do with me.

I still can’t believe how quickly you got to and from the drugstore. I mean, you must’ve been like sprinting the entire time. Obviously I was sprinting. You just told me you might be pregnant when you wanna sit down and just wait for the truth. I mean, how long does this thing take? Two minutes. Two minutes?

I got two minutes. Two minutes. Uhhuh. Okay. Hey, Ben. Yes. Are you nervous? No. No, no. I’m excited. Uhuh, are you Uhuh? No, I’m, I’m, I’m just, I’m still a little queasy. Okay. Queasy. Queasy, right? Women get queasy. Why is that? Why, why, why, why do you pregnant? Women get queasy. You know what? I don’t think all pregnant women do.

Like my mom, when she was pregnant with Sean, she didn’t really get nauseous at all. And as far as the reasoning, I literally have no idea. But there must be some evolutionary reason for it, right? Yes. Yes. So, yeah, evolution. What does that say, Ben? Yes. Are you, um, are you this nervous because you think this is a good thing or it’s a bad thing?

I mean, we, we really didn’t plan for this, right? And, and Bo is not even a year old, and this means that we would be on a boat with a toddler and a baby. Yeah. It’s not a good thing. What? It’s a great thing. We don’t even know what’s going on. We don’t even know if you’re pregnant. Um, uh, actually we do, what does it say?

Are you, are we? I am. You are. I am.

Oh my God. Can’t believe it. We’re gonna have a baby. We’re gonna have another baby here. We’re, oh my God. Oh my God. But you’re actually happy about this, right? Like I just told you how great this is, Sarah. I mean, what do you, what do you mean? It’s not like we haven’t talked about having another kid. Yeah, but this just, this is so soon.

It’s not too soon for me. When Is it too soon for you? No, no. I then. You are a great dad. Okay. And, and it’ll be so nice for Bo to have a little sibling. He running around. Gonna be so, God, do you hear that? Oh, you’re gonna be a She a big brother. Oh my god. Big brother. Oh my God, Sean, I have to call Sean. Oh, we just found out about this.

Do you think? We don’t need to tell everybody right now. And we just found out. I’m not gonna tell him about the baby. I’m just gonna tell him that we’re. What about your mom? Oh, do you know what? Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’ll call and see if she can fly down from Montreal. Hey Sean. Hi. Yeah. Um, I was just calling to let you know that we are back in the States.

Yeah, we just talked a little while ago, but right now we’re in a little motel in, uh, Maryland. Yeah. I was also, um, going to say that uh, we might stop by Salem for a little bit if you’re not busy. Great. . Awesome. Yeah. I miss you so much. Um, I’m gonna call mom and see if maybe she can fly down too. Wait. Mom is where yesterday.

I told you that during our time together, some of the moments we shared were real

and they were, I did feel something for you Harris. Fuck. Okay. I, I wasn’t, I wasn’t sure you meant that, but I was, I was working you, huh. Well, I know how important. It is for you to find Megan and I was your last lead and you know, I think you would say anything to convince me to agree to be Deprogram. Yeah.

I, I don’t think that Romeo and Juliet had these kind of conversations too. Well, I, I don’t think they were secret agents and they weren’t trained to second guess everything and everyone. I completely understand. Are you thinking yesterday that I was working an angle and, um, Even if I was, I’m not right now.

This is just us, you and me, for real.

Well, doesn’t look like we have any kind of a welcoming committee. Oh, according to the military co bases. Gotta be right around here somewhere. Hey, that way out there. Yeah. See that building? Let’s do it. No, it it, it’s not. Bo died in hope’s arms, and you died in Steve’s and my lady died in John’s. Are you telling me the truth?

I was alive. I’m not telling you anything. Enough chocolates. Try this out. Shirley,

Megan stuff. Damn it, Bob, I don’t wanna hurt you. Why are you doing this? Don’t you want us to be together? Everything that I’ve done for you, I’ve, I’ve cured your brain tumor. I, I brought you back to life and this is the way that you’re thinking What we had ended years ago, we were never meant to be together.

So, And you gonna go be with hope, because I am not gonna let that happen. I let that

You need to find yourself another Guinea pig. In fact, why don’t you give yourself the serum? How are you doing? Sedative, you shouldn’t have the strength. You should’ve given me a bigger joke,

tenacious, greedy. Come back here, come.

The place is a maze. We’ll cover more ground if we split up. So you go that way.

Go here.

Do you really mean that?

Mm-hmm. , I need to trust you. We’d have to take it one step at a time. Take it slow.

What the hell is going on here?

What the.

Thanks for the.

I’m gonna go into my future on my own.

Kayla: Bo!

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Kate: Where is the Bo that that I knew that was a rebel, that would’ve come in here and would’ve blown up this whole lab and taken off on his motorcycle without ever bothering to look back at the flames? I mean, I mean, how many times did you take down Megan’s old man? That Bo Brady did not follow orders, hated anyone to tell him what to do. That Bo Brady right now would think that you’re disgusting that you’re doing something just because someone ordered you to do it. That someone, my, the likes of Megan’s Hathaway.

Bo: How about this? I want you dead.

Kate: Do you? Do you really? Because if you do, pull that trigger,

Rolf: What a spectacular rat, Skippy, look at your shining fur, sparkling eyes. That serum is working its magic on you. My little beauty,  Kate Roberts could have sit from the fountain of youth as well, but she chose to be difficult and now she’s dead. It looks as though Megan has put our two remaining guests back to sleep in order to avoid another escape attempt, and we can’t afford to lose any more lab rats before the serum is ready for testing.  No offense and so happens. I’ve manufactured a new batch in record time. You’ve been an excellent test subject. Now to see how the humans do

Hum it Harris, take a deep breath. That works. It’s not working. I can’t remember anything from the day Megan took me to the day. The day I woken the crap. It’s okay. It’s all right. Just, hey, just give it time. It’s alright. Megan, sub drive to you to years of wine control. You’ve been working with Kimberly for less than 24 hours, maybe this is a part of my brain that doesn’t wanna be reprogrammed.

You want your life back. Yes, I do want my life back.

I wanna find Megan

and I wanna bring her.

For your sake

from mine. Oh, there you are, right. Good news, miss sve. I’ve finished making a new batches of serum and I’ve tested it on my little friend Skippy here. How is he? She, when she’s never looked better racing around her cage like a young pup. Why don’t you look pleased? Because the serum won’t do me any good if I’ve already lost Bo, and that will all be your fault.

My fault. What did I do? You said he was beat forever. Loyal and true to me. He has been. No, he has not. Last night after I ordered him to kill Kate. Wait, are you saying he didn’t go through visit? We heard the gunshot. Well, yes. Yes. He killed Kate. But then he went rogue. He said it was the last order of mine that he was gonna follow, and he locked himself in the other lab and won’t speak to me.

And how could you have let this happen?

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

It’s interesting.

Interesting. That’s all you have to say for yourself. You told me the BO would be eating outta the palm of my hand and he was until he wasn’t. Bo Brady, as you know, is an uncommonly strong-willed individual. I suspect it’s one of the reasons you fell in love with him in the first. And it’s also the reason you needed the serum to turn back time and they can fall back in love with you.

You promised. I promised nothing. Ms. Ve, as I’ve told you, I can mold people’s minds, their thought center some extent, their desires. But I can’t change who they are at the core. They will be who they’ve always been.

Parents, Carolyn Brady, and Victor Kitty. I like the kind of man you are though. You’ve got pride. You can hold your head up high and stare any man right in the eye. Proud to have you for a son. Hope you know that.

Good morning, Ms. Brady, commander Michaels. I’m Dr. Frankel. I’m a psychiatrist for the is. Where? Where? Where’s Kimberly Donovan? Dr. Donovan called me in to consult on your case. Oh, okay. And what is your assessment? Unfortunately, it appears the changes to your brain chemistry are deeply embedded. Dr. Donovan and I both agreed traditional psychotherapy may not be enough to retrieve your memories.

Okay,

now what? One option is E C T E C T Shark therapy. Historically, it’s been prescribed to treat resistant depression, but it’s also used in conditioning and therefore reconditioning. So So you, you wouldn’t Is that my brain? I wouldn’t put it like that, but yes. And you think this could get Megan’s programming out of his head?

I can’t guarantee it. And I must warn you, there are many potential side effects such as. Headaches, confusion, memory loss. In very rare cases, it can even be fatal.

I don’t care. I want to do it now. Let’s do it today. Oh, sure. About this? Yeah, sure. In that case, I’ll need you to sign this consent form.

You can take time deciding on this. We can talk it over with Kimberly. You don’t have to sign it right now. I can’t move this way anymore.

Let’s just do it now.

Virtual chess. Huh? At which, uh, your son, Theo is virtually unbeatable. It’s infuriating, right? Well, it’s definitely humbly, yes. You know, I almost beat him in a game the other day. Almost beat a key word. Well, stay at it. He’s bound to make a mistake someday. Sure. If you say so.

You know, when I think about all the worries Alexia and I had, that he would never work or live independently, and now sometimes I wish he were a little bit less independent. Yeah, I hear you. I, um, I say that about Toms and Charlotte all the time. They’re, they’re growing up so. And that will only speed up as they get older.

Theo was about Thomas’s age when you lost Lexi, right? Yes, he was. How did he react when, when you started to, um, to move on? Move on. You mean dating? Yeah. You know, Thomas and Charlotte, they adore Stephanie. And, and they’re, they’re happy that she and I are, are together, but it’s just what worries me is

worries me is, um, Dino, if it doesn’t work out and, and they’re already so attached, Chad, Dino, goodness, none of us know for sure what the future holds. I mean, my advice is take it one day at a. Enjoy what you and Stephanie have together and stop. Stop with the what ifs. . Your children are strong and you know, whatever happens down the road, it’s, but having Stephanie in their lives right now is a good thing, I think.

I think you are right. Very good. And no more what ifs. Good. I’m gonna hold you to that and segueing to, uh, a work relationship between you and Stephanie, which is also very good. I mean, Pauline is very impressed with the two of you, and you’ve helped her, you’ve helped her out of a lot of ugly gyms. Yeah.

Well, you know, we, we had that, that big screw up, uh, a few months back. We’re just grateful that she gave us a second shot. You know, Paul, she wants what she wants and, well, you know the, what’s the thing about business? It can get a little Missy.

Dear God, somebody broke in here and trashed the place. I’m not so sure about that. This place doesn’t look trash to you. No. I mean about the breaking in part. When we got here, the door was locked. Right? You, you used your key. Yes. No. So if someone picks a lock, it disables the mechanism. I learned that from my dad.

So whoever got in, got in some other way. I don’t care how they got in. All I care about is who did it, and I know exactly who it was.

I am going to turn up the voltage

stop. You’re hurting him. Lower the voltage.

Keep going, I can kick it.

Commander Harris Michaels was a strong-willed man who also fancied himself to be a hero, but he always did exactly as I ordered him too. Not always, he wouldn’t shoot hope on a vetting day. You don’t have to remind me. What is it with these men in Hope Williams? Brady? She’s like catnip. What is it that they see in her beauty brains bravery.

Ah, sorry. You asked the question, but the point is Bo doesn’t see anything in her anymore. How can you be so sure about that? He’s broken free of my. How do you know that your programming hasn’t failed entirely? How can you be sure that he hasn’t fallen for her? Again,

hope Williams Brady Pose Liaison. That drug is one true love bow and hope we’re a romance for the ages, but through the. The relationship has hardly been smooth sailing. I don’t give up easily. Fancy face. Neither do I, Brady. Forget it. Just listen. No, I’m not going stop it.

No, Paul, you can knock yourself out trying, but it’s never gonna work. You can’t change the past, Paul, you’re right. So I can take a long, healthy look at the future. We don’t have a future anymore.

We’ll see about that.

You know who did this to your office? Well, of course, Sloane Peterson. Who else? You have proof or you’re just guessing? Come on, Stephanie. Ever since Bell got her case against me and Chanel thrown out Sloane, she’s made some big vows. She’s going to get her revenge some way, some. Well, I mean, trashing your office is upsetting, but it doesn’t seem like Sloane’s mo.

Well, maybe she’s trying to find dirt to use against me. I don’t know. The woman is unhinged. I guess that’s possible. It’s not only possible. It is what? It’s what happened? Oh, no, she’s not gonna get away with this. Wait, where are you going? Where do you think I’m going over there to ring her scr little neck.

You know, I can’t promise that things with Paul won’t get messy. In fact, I can more easily promise that they will , but I’m glad she has you and Stephanie on her side. Me too. Hey, hey, Hey, Chad. Steve throwing around. I know he, he left a while ago. What’s going on? Oh, got, uh, some news about the hunt for Megan Hathaway.

Just wanted to give him an update. Well, I’d like to get an update myself. Uh, I can’t say I’m looking forward to meeting my long law sister unless she’s in police custody. When I do. If Bo’s feelings for Hope had returned, he wouldn’t be haul up in Z of the lab. He’d be tearing his way out of this place.

Nothing could stop him from getting home to her. He doesn’t even know where he is. It wouldn’t matter if he was on the moon, he’d find his way back to her, but he owes his life to you. That gives you considerable power in this situ. Until last night, he had done everything that I asked him to. He, he stole the orchid from Salem.

He, he killed Kate. I don’t understand what’s changed. So suddenly we have to remember he’s been through a great deal of trauma. We don’t know, has a brain tumor altered his mental status? He doesn’t have a brain tumor anymore. Again, thanks to me. I got those prisms, I revived him. I kidnapped numerous people.

I’ve been living off the grid for decades and I’ve sacrificed. Everything for one reason and one reason only to get Bo back, and I am not going to lose him. Now.

Bo Brady’s stubborn streak will be the biggest obstacle to overcome, as he will most certainly be resistant to treatment. His love for hope is embedded at the most elemental level and thus difficult to erase completely. My best strategy is to exploit the cracks in a very foundation of their relationship.

Well, are you back for good or are you going back to I’ve gotta go to Victor’s place. That’s what you want. Tell you what I want. I want you to, oh, don’t, I can’t, don’t even have. If you walk off that door pole, I don’t want you to ever come back again. Oh, come. I mean, boat. We have to go through. You go out that door and our marriage is finished.

Yeah. Uh, makes sense. I guess this is it, isn’t it? No, there’s something else I want to say too.

I do love you.

And that is never going to change no matter what happens. I love you. Just remember that. Okay,

bye.

Goodbye, Paul. Bo has loved other women, including Ms. Hathaway if only goes according to plan. He will love her once.

I remember,

so Michael’s agreed to track down Megan, are you sure it’s not some kind of trick? Well, the thing is, Kimberly is treating him and she believes he’s sincere. She says that whatever feelings he has for hope have broken through Megan’s brainwash. I hate to say it about my own sister. I, I hope she fries for what she did.

Well, we’re working on that. Does Stephanie know about the latest developments? No, actually not. Uh, but she would like to be in the loop. Do me a favor if you see her before I do, would you mind filling her in? Sure. I’m sorry. If you were worried about her last. Stephanie’s a grown woman, you know, and if I haven’t made it clear before, I’m glad that she has her support, especially now.

Thank you for saying that. We’re going through a tough time and we’re helping each other the best that we can. Well, they have a great relationship work-wise, and Paul just. SJ P R’S contract. That’s great. Stephanie must be so happy about that. Yeah, she’s actually signing the contract right now, and I, I, I supposed to have heard from her by now.

Um, I’m gonna just go and make sure everything’s okay. Ms. Price. You can’t just go over there and confront Sloan. Why the hell Matt? Because she could be dangerous. We should call the police. You know that if I called the police that gossip, manga lady, lawn mower, whistleblower, whatever. She’ll publish another clickbait column about the latest scandal to plague Paulina Price.

But how is it a scandal that someone trashed your office? I just told you to put out a press release insisting that no one gets away with crossing me. This will make me look like some sort of pathetic victim, or at least a magnet for disaster. It is not your fault that someone broke in and aha. So you agree she broke in?

Why don’t, why don’t you let me handle the. Starting with pointing out that strangling someone is not the most strategic move. Mm. Well, yeah. Alright. Alright. Bye. I’ll give you that. I’ll tell you what though. I know someone who can handle this discreetly. If you’ll let me give him a call.

It comes down to the age old. Nature versus Nurture. Bo was raised as a Brady to be a solid and decent member of the community, but by blood, he’s Victor Kitty’s son

in all my life. I wanted a son, somebody I could share my work with, share my life with somebody to pass my dream onto. I have that now. Couldn’t ask for a better son than you, Bo. I mean, I look at you and I see me now. I take that back. I have, I look at you and I see the good parts of me.

That explains why he was the black sheep of the Brady Clan. I intend to tap into his dark side, something he shares with Ms. Hathaway. There must be something that you can do, give Bo’s brain a tumor or something. He’s not a mo. You know what I mean? I need you to ensure that he is hopelessly devoted to only me.

And then we can use the serum and we can turn back time and we can go back to the good old days before Hope Williams came along, ruin and be fake with the giant buttons. Kill shoes is, are you all right?

Yeah, I think so. What do you remember?

Is it working off? Do you have control facilities? With Megan, it was like, it was like a lab and there was this guy with a white pony. Dr. Bra. Yes. Yes. That, that, that’s it. That’s his name. They put electrodes on my head like this. What else did you see?

There was this, there was a tube light container in the lab. When he was upright, he was human sized. Two for a person? Yes. And there was someone inside, who was it? Four in the tube.

Damn it. If only we had some other leads on Megan, we wouldn’t be totally at the mercy of this. Harris Michaels, I just thought of that woman at Homicidal bench walking around. It just burns me.

What? Why are you looking at me like that, Stevens? It’s just like you’re, you’re letting this quest take over your life. Okay. I know what you’re gonna say. I say This is no way to deal with my. But lemme tell you something, man. This is the only thing getting me outta bed in the morning. It helps me avoid thinking about life without Kayla.

I just can’t think about it, buddy. You know, you have to eventually. They just know that you, your friends, are there for you, whatever you need.

Who were you calling?

What the hell happened here? Exactly what it looks like. Someone tore the place up. Are you all right? She’s fine. So am I. If, uh, Do you see who did it? No. We walked in and found it this way. I assume the police have been called. Uh, not yet. We haven’t called them. Why not? Because I want this handled with the utmost discussion, and I’m about to do just that as long as Paulina agrees with my plan.

This person you saw on the tube, did you have any idea who it could have?

The glass was obscured by fog. I couldn’t see their face. Is there anything else you remember from the room? Anything at all

or something? Something on the wall? Some. Some sort of chart. Maybe a nautical map.

Do you think you could identify it? I remember seeing coordinates

make a backslab that map could lead you. Right. Tour. And whoever else she might be keeping there.

Where is the boat that I knew that was a rebel that would’ve come in here and would’ve blown up this whole last. I like the kind of man you are though. Couldn’t ask for a better son than you taken off on his motorcycle without ever bothering to look back at the flame. How proud I son. It’s fancy

you. Having you for a son has changed my life. Bob, man, look at you and I see me now I take that back. I. I look at you and I see the good parts of me, you honest, and look at me. So you’re not happy to see me.

Is

Indoc

Marvel Thought you would be so good at thinking.

We had a lot of wonderful moments here, didn’t we?

Yeah, I think I can remember a few. Where is the boat that, that I knew that was a rebel that would’ve come in here and would’ve blown up this whole lap and taken off on his motorcycle without ever bothering to look back at the.

I guess that answers my question. One question is that whether or not you want me here after that kiss, I know you too.

It’s fancy. Please don’t leave me.

If you want me to perform a tuneup on bo, you’ll need to either be cooperative or coerced. Yes, I have a plan A and a plan B. Why does that not surprise me? You just keep working on the serum.

What are you looking for?

Got it. If I should return,

and this is exactly how you found it, if it is, thanks again for coming so fast. Yeah, of course. You see anything? Hello? Yeah. No sign. A forced entry. Paulina, are you sure that, uh, nothing appears to be missing? No, but we already knew this. Oh, I’m just asking, does this all seem weird to you? Yeah, I mean, it’s, it’s unusual.

Pollina. Are you sure that nobody happened to have gotten a hold of a spare key? Are you saying, this is my fault? Hey, I’m just covering all my bases here. I wanna get a forensic unit in here and. Desperate press. No, no, no. You don’t need to bother with that. I can tell you who’s guilty. So go do your job at arrest Sloan Peterson.

So what do you intend to do with Megan when you find her? Well, it’s probably best. You don’t hear the answer to that, Mr. Mayor.

It’s hope. Hey, hope. What’d you? We may have a general location. Okay. Text me what you got. You got it? As soon as I get off. Okay, we’ll check it out. I’m gonna call John. We’ll hop on a plane and we’ll meet you there. Okay, great. See you soon. Listen, I’m sorry, but I’ve gotta get going. Yeah. No, I know. I know you.

Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris, Harris.

There’s a side of BO that was drawn to Megan, the side that craves danger, excitement, life on the wild side under the right circum. She might once again welcome her with open arms.

Rolf told Marlena and Kayla that the serum was working. He said Kate might have sipped from her fountain of youth, but she chose to be difficult. He said she was dead. Megan put Marlena and Kayla to sleep to keep them from escaping. Rolf wanted to see how the serum would work on a human. Megan yelled at Rolf because Bo went rogue. She said Bo said it was the last order he was doing for her. He locked himself in the other lab and wasn’t talking to her. Rolf said he could mold people’s minds, but he couldn’t change who they were at the core. Bo looked at the orchid and thought about talking to Kate. He thought about the gunshot. He looked through the drawers and found a file with his name on it. He saw his parents’ names on it. He thought about Victor telling him he was proud of him. Harris was upset that he couldn’t remember anything after Megan took him. He told Hope that he wanted to find Megan so they could bring her down for both of their sakes. A psychiatrist came in the room. She said Kimberly asked her to consult. She said the changes to Harris’ brain chemistry are embedded. She said psychotherapy may not be enough to retrieve his memories. She said shock therapy was an option, but it could be fatal. He said he didn’t care. He wanted to do it today. Hope told him to think about it. He signed the consent form.

Harris had electrodes on his head. The doctor turned up the voltage. Hope told her to stop, but Harris wanted her to keep going. When he was given another shot, he remembered being in a lab with Megan and Rolf. He told Hope and the doctor about a tube. Hope asked who was in the tube. Rolf told Megan that he was confident Bo was over Hope. Megan wanted to know how he was so sure Bo has fallen for Hope again. She said she sacrificed everything to get Bo back. She said she wouldn’t lose him again. She wanted Rolf to make sure Bo was devoted to her. She wanted him to use the serum to turn back time before Hope ruined everything. Bo looked through the file and saw a picture of Hope. He read about their relationship. He thought about their relationship. He read Megan’s plans to make him fall in love with her. He read that she wants to tap into his dark Kiriakis side. He thought about Victor. Harris told Hope and the doctor that he couldn’t see who was in the tube. He said there was a map on the wall. He wrote down the coordinates. Bo had memories of Hope. Megan told Rolf that she had plans for Bo. She told Rolf to keep working on the serum. While Bo was looking at the file, Megan came in with a syringe behind her back.

Chloe was about to leave when she got a call from Kristen. They argued over Stefan. Chloe was about to hang up on her when she told her that she had information for her. She warned her to stay away from Brady. She went off on Kristen about Rachel when Leo walked up and heard it. He continued to listen as Chloe badmouthed Rachel.

Update written by Joseph

Bo enters Megan’s lab where she left the orchid. Bo stops and thinks back to Kate asking where the old Bo Brady that she knew was until Kate told him to pull the trigger, which he did.

Dr. Rolf watches over a rat in his lab and says the serum is working it’s magic on the rat. Rolf remarks that Kate could’ve experienced it too but she had to be difficult and now she’s dead. Dr. Rolf adds that Megan has put Marlena and Kayla back to sleep to avoid any more escape attempts as they can’t afford to lose any more lab rats. Dr. Rolf mentions putting this new batch of serum together in record time. Dr. Rolf says the rat was an excellent test subject and now they’ll see how the humans do.

At the ISA Facility in Frederick, Maryland, Harris Michaels complains about being unable to remember anything before Megan grabbed him. Hope encourages that he’s only been working with Kimberly for a day after Megan put him through years of mind control. Harris argues that maybe part of his brain doesn’t want to be reprogrammed. Hope argues that he wants his life back. Harris confirms that he wants to find Megan and bring her to justice for Hope’s sake and for his.

Megan joins Dr. Rolf, who informs her that he’s finished the new batch of his serum and tested it successfully on the rat. Megan complains that the serum won’t do her any good if she’s already lost Bo and that would be Dr. Rolf’s fault, which he questions. Megan argues that he said Bo would be forever loyal and true to her which Rolf points out that he has been. Megan responds that he has not as last night after she ordered him to kill Kate. Dr. Rolf says they heard the gunshot. Megan informs him that Bo killed Kate, but then he went rogue and stopped listening to her, now he’s locked himself in the other lab and won’t speak to her. Megan questions how Dr. Rolf could let this happen.

Bo begins searching the drawers of the lab and finds a file folder on himself.

Megan screams at Dr. Rolf that he told her that Bo would be eating out of the palm of her hand. Dr. Rolf argues that he was but he’s a very strong willed individual and that’s why he needs the serum to get him to fall back in love with her. Dr. Rolf reminds Megan that he can alter people’s minds but he can’t change who they are, so at their core, they will be who they have always been.

Bo reads through his file which includes his family history. Bo reads that his parents were Caroline Brady and Victor Kiriakis, causing him to have a flashback of Victor.

Dr. Frankel, the ISA doctor that Kimberly called to consult, joins Harris and Hope. She informs them that what Megan did to Harris’ brain was deeply embedded, so traditional psychotherapy may not be enough to retrieve his memories. Harris asks now what then. She says one option is shock therapy. She warns that she cannot guarantee it will work and that it may have side effects and in rare cases, it could even be fatal. Harris decides he wants to do it now and he’s sure. Dr. Frankel gives him a consent form to sign then. Hope advises Harris that he can take time to decide and they can talk it over with Kimberly, so he doesn’t have to sign it now. Harris responds that he can’t live this way anymore, so he wants to do it.

Chad talks with Abe at the Pub about how Theo has become unbeatable at playing chess. Abe recalls how he and Lexie had so many worries about Theo growing up and now he almost wishes Theo was a little less independent. Chad relates to feeling the same about his kids growing up so fast. Chad mentions that Theo was about Thomas’s age when he lost Lexie. Chad asks how Theo reacted when Abe started to move on with dating. Chad states that Thomas and Charlotte adore Stephanie and they are happy that they are together, but he’s worried about if it doesn’t work out. Abe states that none of them know for sure what the future holds, so he advises Chad to take it one day at a time and enjoy what they have together. Abe tells Chad to stop wondering what if and says having Stephanie in their lives right now is a good thing. Chad agrees and thanks Abe for the advice. Abe brings up Chad and Stephanie’s work relationship also being very good. Abe notes that Paulina has been very impressed with them and they have helped her out of a lot of jams. Chad says they made a big screw up awhile back, so they are just grateful that Paulina gave them a second chance.

Paulina and Stephanie go to Paulina’s office and finds it has been trashed. Paulina complains that someone must have broken in but Stephanie points out that the door was locked, so whoever did it had to have gotten in some other way. Paulina responds that she doesn’t care how they did it, only who did it and says that she knows exactly who it was.

Harris begins his shock treatment. Dr. Frankel raises the voltage but Hope tells her to stop, worrying that she’s hurting him. Harris says to keep going, insisting that he can take it.

Megan complains to Dr. Rolf that Harris Michaels was another strong willed individual who fancied himself as a hero, but he always did what she asked of him. Dr. Rolf points out that he didn’t always since he wouldn’t shoot Hope on their wedding day. Megan says he doesn’t have to remind her of that. Megan questions what these men see in Hope. Dr. Rolf points out that Bo doesn’t see anything in Hope anymore. Megan asks how he can be so sure since Bo has broken free of her influence, so she questions how he can be sure that he hasn’t failed entirely and that Bo hasn’t fallen for Hope again.

Bo continues going through his file and comes across a page on Hope, described as his one true love which causes him to have flashbacks to their relationship.

Stephanie questions Paulina knowing who did this to her office. Paulina blames Sloan and asks who else it would be. Stephanie asks if she has proof or if she’s just guessing. Paulina complains that ever since Belle got the case thrown out, Sloan has been vowing to get revenge somehow. Stephanie states that trashing her office is upsetting, but doesn’t seem like Sloan’s M.O. Paulina suggests she could’ve been looking for dirt on her and insists that’s what happened. Paulina declares that Sloan is not going to get away with this, so she’s going to wring her neck.

Abe tells Chad that he can’t promise things won’t get messy with Paulina again, but he’s glad they are on her side. Steve arrives and greets them, then asks if Roman is around. Abe says he left awhile ago. Steve says he just has some news on the hunt for Megan Hathaway, so he wanted to give Roman an update. Abe responds that he’d like an update himself. Chad can’t say he’s looking forward to meeting his long lost sister, unless she’s in police custody when he does.

Dr. Rolf argues that if Bo’s feelings for Hope had returned, he wouldn’t be holed up in the other lab, he would be tearing his way out of here and nothing would be able to stop him from getting home to her. Megan points out that Bo doesn’t even know where he is. Dr. Rolf says it doesn’t matter, he would find his way, but he owes his life to Megan which gives her considerable power in this situation. Megan states that until last night, Bo did everything she asked him to including stealing the orchid from Salem and killing Kate. Megan doesn’t understand what changed so suddenly. Dr. Rolf reminds her that he’s been through a lot of trauma and they don’t know how the brain tumor could have affected him. Megan points out that he doesn’t have a brain tumor anymore because of her. Megan says she got the prisms to revive him, kidnapped numerous people, has been living off the grid for decades, and sacrificed everything to get Bo back. Megan cries that she’s not going to lose Bo now.

Bo continues reading through his file which states that his stubborn streak would be the hardest thing to overcome as he would be resistant to treatment and it would be difficult to erase his love for Hope so they would focus on the cracks in their relationship. Bo has flashbacks to arguing with Hope in the past. Bo continues reading his file which says he has loved other women including Megan and if all goes according to plan, he will love her once again.

Harris’ shock therapy treatment continues, giving him flashbacks to Dr. Rolf altering his brain. Harris then has a breakthrough and declares that he remembers.

Steve informs Abe and Chad that Harris Michaels agreed to track down Megan and that Kimberly is treating him, so she believes he is sincere and whatever feelings he has for Hope have broken through Megan’s brainwashing. Chad hopes Megan fries for what she did. Steve says they are working on that. Chad asks if Stephanie knows about the latest developments. Steve says no, but she would like to be in the loop, so he asks Chad to fill her in. Chad tells Steve that he’s sorry if he was worried about her last night. Steve responds that Stephanie is a grown woman and he’s glad that she has Chad’s support, especially now. Chad thanks him and says they are going through a hard time and helping each other. Abe comments on them having a great work relationship and adds that Paulina just extended their contract with SJPR. Steve says that’s great and that Stephanie must be so happy about that. Chad mentions that she’s actually signing the contract now and realizes he should’ve heard from her by now, so he’s going to make sure everything is okay.

Stephanie argues that Paulina can’t just go confront Sloan because she could be dangerous. Stephanie suggests calling the police but Paulina worries that Leo will publish another clickbait column about the latest scandal to plague her. Stephanie asks how it’s a scandal that someone trashed her office. Paulina complains that she just asked Stephanie to put out a press release that no one crosses her and this would make her look like a pathetic victim or a magnet for disaster. Stephanie insists that it’s not her fault and suggests letting her handle the PR, starting by pointing out that strangling someone is not the most strategic move which Paulina agrees with. Stephanie knows someone who can handle this discretely, if she will let her give them a call.

Bo continues reading his file about how he was raised a Brady, but by blood, he is Victor Kiriakis’ son. Bo then has flashbacks to Victor. Bo continues reading that it explains why he was the black sheep of the Brady clan and that he shares a dark side with Megan.

Megan argues that there must be something Dr. Rolf can do to ensure that he is hopelessly devoted to only her and then they can use the serum to turn back time and go back to the good old days before Hope ruined everything.

Harris is taken out of shock therapy and tells Hope that he’s alright. Dr. Frankel asks what he remembers. Harris flashes back to Megan and Dr. Rolf brainwashing him. Harris recalls being in a lab with them and a tube like container in the room with someone inside. Hope asks who it was.

Steve tells Abe that if only had they had other leads on Megan, they wouldn’t be totally at the mercy of Harris Michaels. Steve hates the thought of Megan walking around free. Abe feels Steve is letting this quest take over his life. Steve knows he thinks this is no way to deal with his grief, but says it’s the only thing getting him out of bed in the morning as it helps him avoid thinking about life without Kayla. Abe tells him that he will have to eventually and his friends are there for him for whatever he needs.

Chad joins Stephanie and Paulina at the office and asks what the hell happened. Stephanie says someone tore the place up. Chad asks if they know who did it but Stephanie says it was this way when they got there. Chad assumes the police have been called but Stephanie says not yet. Chad asks why not. Paulina explains that she wants this handled with the most utmost discretion. Stephanie responds that she’s about to do just that as long as Paulina agrees with her plan.

Hope asks Harris if he has any idea who could have been in the tube. Harris flashbacks and says the glass was obscured by fog so he couldn’t see their face. Hope asks if he remembers anything else from the room. Harris remembers a chart or nautical map where he remembers seeing coordinates. Hope has Harris write down what he remembers as Harris states that the map could lead right to Megan and whoever else she might be keeping.

Bo thinks back again to Kate asking where the Bo she knew was mixed in with flashbacks of Victor and Hope.

Dr. Rolf tells Megan that Bo will either need to be cooperative or coerced if she wants him to perform a tune up on him. Megan responds that she has a plan A and a plan B. Megan tells Dr. Rolf to just keep working on the serum. Megan takes a syringe and exits the lab.

Shawn arrives at Paulina’s office. Stephanie thanks him for coming so fast and says this is exactly how they found the office. Shawn notes that there’s no sign of forced entry and asks if Paulina is sure nothing is missing. Paulina says no. Shawn talks about this being weird and asks Paulina if she’s sure that no one got a hold of a spare key. Paulina questions if he’s saying this is her fault. Shawn says he’s just covering all bases. Shawn wants to get forensics in to dust for prints. Paulina says he doesn’t need to do that because she can tell him who is responsible. Paulina tells Shawn to go ahead and do his job by arresting Sloan Peterson.

Abe asks Steve what he intends to do with Megan when he finds her. Steve responds that it’s probably best Abe doesn’t hear the answer to that. Steve then gets a call from Hope and asks what she found. Hope responds that they may have a general location and says she will text him what they have. Steve agrees to check it out and says he and John will hop on a plane to meet her there as they hang up.

Hope tells Harris that she’s sorry but she has to get going. Harris starts to get up but he collapses.

Bo continues reading his file which says there was a side of Bo that was attracted to Megan and under the right circumstances, he might once again welcome her with open arms. Megan then enters the lab, holding her syringe behind her back.

Update written by Joseph

Xander walks through the town square with a coffee. Leo walks up and acts like it’s for him, so he takes the coffee and drinks it. Xander tells him to just keep it. Leo mentions not getting much sleep last night. Xander asks if he was digging in the trash again for his next column. Leo argues that after the success of his first column, he has people lining up around the block to give him more gossip. Leo says he has more sources than he can count which should make Xander happy. Leo adds that his column will have the Spectator back in the black in no time. Xander questions what did keep Leo up last night if he wasn’t picking up scoops. Xander then remarks that he has no interest in hearing about Leo’s sex life. Leo then informs him that it wasn’t his sex life that robbed him of his rest, it was Gwen’s.

Gwen and Alex lay in bed together after having sex again. Alex tells her that she was incredible. Gwen says he wasn’t so bad himself. Alex asks if she has no more regrets about hooking up with him again. Alex knows Xander isn’t thrilled with them being friends with extremely good benefits. Gwen responds that Xander’s opinion doesn’t matter to her anymore and that’s the last she wants to talk about him. Alex says that’s good with him. Gwen says she’d much rather talk about him as they continue kissing.

At the Titan office, Maggie calls her secretary to send Alex in but she’s informed that Alex is not there. Brady then arrives and brings her flowers to congratulate her on her new job as CEO. Brady states that the family business could not be in better hands. Maggie thanks him. Brady admits he was a bit surprised that Victor passed over Alex for her. Maggie notes that Alex wasn’t happy about it but she thinks he’s coming around. Maggie adds that Alex should be here by now since they have a very important meeting this morning with a content syndicator who is interested in distributing digital articles from Titan publications. Brady jokes that she sounds like she’s been in charge of a major conglomerate for her whole life. Brady says he’s so proud of her. Maggie thanks him and says that means a lot. Brady hopes Victor doesn’t keep her so busy at Titan that she doesn’t have time to be his sponsor at AA meetings. Maggie assures that she would never let anything get in the way of her being there for him. Brady is glad to hear that as he admits the whole situation with Chloe has been tough and he’s been struggling a bit. Maggie says she’s sorry to hear that and asks if he’s been going to meetings. Brady admits he has not but says he will as Maggie hugs him.

Chloe exits her room at the Salem Inn and gets a call from prison which turns out to be from Kristen DiMera.

Chad brings Stephanie breakfast in bed. Chad notes that it’s the first night she slept over so he thought that was worth celebrating. Chad kisses her and says he wanted to thank her for forgiving him for opening his big mouth to Leo.

Leo asks if Xander is curious who Gwen was with last night. Xander claims he couldn’t care less. Leo then says if he doesn’t care then he won’t mind knowing as he exclaims that it was Xander’s smoking hot cousin, Alex.

Alex and Gwen continue kissing in bed until Alex tells her that he has to get to work as there’s a big morning meeting at Titan and Maggie will kick his ass if he shows up late. Alex mentions taking a quick shower, so Gwen suggests they shower together. Alex calls that a damn good plan as they get out of bed.

Chloe asks what Kristen wants. Kristen asks if that’s any way to talk to her future sister in law. Kristen then says she won’t be and that Chloe is nothing to her now that Stefan came to his senses and dumped her pathetic ass. Chloe argues that Stefan didn’t come to his senses, he was deprogrammed. Chloe reminds Kristen of her brainwashing scheme and says she was so desperate to keep her and Brady apart. Chloe declares that she doesn’t have time for this and tells Kristen to go to Hell. Kristen warns Chloe not to hang up as she has something that she needs to hear.

Paulina joins Abe at the Brady Pub. Abe informs her that he already ordered for them but Paulina says she wants pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon because they are celebrating and breakfast is on her. Abe assumes that Belle succeeded in getting her assets unfrozen then. Paulina reveals that Belle got the whole case dismissed and declares that Sloan is out of their lives forever.

Stephanie tells Chad that she knows he was only trying to defend her. Chad says he should’ve let her handle it and not brought up her mom, especially not to Leo. Stephanie understands he was just trying to get Leo to back off. Stephanie apologizes for being so hard on him. Chad says he’s sorry too and jokes that the good thing about their first fight is they got to spend all night making up as they then kiss.

Leo tells Xander about how Gwen sent him an urgent text that she was bringing Alex home so he needed to get out and since Xander banned him from sleeping at the office, he ended up on one of the lounge sofas at the Salem Inn. Xander can’t believe it and angrily complains that he warned Alex to stay away from Gwen but he didn’t listen. Leo comments that he’s not in a position to tell two hot people not to do what hot people do best. Leo reminds Xander that he had his chance with Gwen. Leo says he has to get to work, so he’ll see him at the office and walks off.

Brady tells Maggie that he just thought that once the situation with Stefan was resolved, he and Chloe would be fine and be together but he feels like they are further apart than they’ve ever been because of his daughter, Rachel. Brady says that Rachel has never had an unkind word to say about anybody until the last couple months and now she despises Chloe. Brady asks how the hell to handle that. Maggie offers to talk to her but Brady doesn’t think it would do any good because Kristen did such a good job of turning Rachel against Chloe, that anytime someone brings up the subject, she shuts down, goes on the attack, or has a tantrum. Maggie wishes she could say she was surprised by Kristen using her own daughter, but they both know Kristen will stop at nothing to get what she wants. Brady states that Kristen’s main goal in life right now is just to keep him and Chloe apart.

Chloe asks Kristen what the hell she needs to hear. Kristen says she’s heard it before and remarks that Stefan dumped her for someone who actually has a personality which means Chloe is on the market again. Kristen warns Chloe to stay the hell away from Brady. Chloe responds that who she decides to date is none of her damn business. Kristen argues that it is when it concerns the welfare of her daughter. Leo comes around the corner at the Inn and stops behind Chloe to listen in. Chloe repeats to Kristen that she would never do anything to hurt Rachel. Kristen remarks that she obviously hasn’t endeared herself to her. Kristen tells Chloe that Rachel can’t stand the sight of her. Chloe blames Kristen for doing everything in her power to turn Rachel against her. Kristen claims she didn’t have to do much because Rachel is an excellent judge of character. Chloe then remarks that Kristen’s sweet Rachel has turned in to a little monster and warns that if they aren’t careful, she will grow up to be just as deranged as her mother. Leo smiles while continuing to listen in behind Chloe.

Abe tells Paulina that it’s good to see her beautiful smile again. Paulina says he can expect that more now that they are rid of Sloan and her awful lies. Paulina then asks where Abe’s smile is. Abe responds that he’s relieved that Sloan’s bogus civil case has been thrown out, but admits he’s concerned about her latest threat against her and Chanel. Paulina argues that Sloan’s not scaring anybody anymore. Paulina says that the biggest mistake they made was giving Sloan a drop of their energy to feed off of. Paulina declares that she knows the perfect way to move on and pulls out her phone. Abe asks who she is calling. Paulina says it’s someone more than capable in letting the entire world know that Paulina Price is back in business and better than ever.

Stephanie guesses her and Chad’s first sleepover at his house is officially over. Chad hopes it’s the first of many. Stephanie says it better be. They kiss until Stephanie gets a call from Paulina. Paulina says she needs Stephanie and Chad to meet her at the Brady Pub. Stephanie says she’ll see her soon and hangs up. Stephanie informs Chad that they have been summoned to the Pub and Paulina sounded very chipper. Chad says he knows not to keep Paulina waiting, so they exit together.

Kristen complains about Chloe calling her daughter a monster and says if anyone is a monster, it’s Chloe. Chloe apologizes and says she didn’t mean it, blaming it on Kristen for pushing her buttons. Kristen argues that Chloe blames everything on her and says Chloe just expressed her hatred for her daughter. Chloe yells at Kristen to never call her again and hangs up. Leo finishes taking notes and walks by. Chloe says she didn’t see him there. Leo says that was obvious or else he doubts she would’ve called Brady’s daughter a little monster. Leo talks about taking notes and says it’s clear that Chloe despises Rachel for wrecking her relationship with Brady. Chloe pleads with Leo not to print what he overheard but Leo says he’ll be seeing her on the gossip page and walks off.

Xander sits in the town square, angrily drinking his coffee as Alex and Gwen come out of the Salem Inn together. Alex tells Gwen that he had a great time last night and this morning as they kiss. Alex suggests they do it again sometime. Xander approaches and comments on their double walk of shame. Alex asks who is ashamed. Xander says he wasn’t talking to him. Gwen asks why she should be ashamed. Xander comments on Gwen inviting Salem’s most notorious man slut in to her bed and remarks that he hopes they used protection because God knows what kind of STDs Alex has. Alex tells Xander that’s enough. Xander asks Alex what his sloppy seconds were like. Alex warns Xander to watch his mouth. Xander asks what he’s going to do if he doesn’t. Gwen tells Alex to just walk away. Xander tells Alex to listen to his playmate before he has to teach him a lesson. Alex shoves Xander, so Xander then punches Alex. Alex responds by tackling Xander.

Stephanie and Chad join Paulina and Abe at the Brady Pub. Stephanie asks Paulina what was so urgent. Paulina happily announces that Sloan’s lawsuit has been thrown out which means she is now once again in control of all her vast real estate. Stephanie and Chad congratulate her. Paulina says there will be plenty of time to celebrate later and right now, she wants SJP to print out a press release announcing her victory as she wants everyone to know if that if you mess with her, you best be prepared to lose because she is a woman who never backs down from a fight.

Gwen gets in between Alex and Xander, telling them to stop fighting. Gwen reminds Alex that he’s already late for work so they should get going. Xander calls that a great idea, joking that Alex wouldn’t want Maggie to bust out the ruler on him. Gwen holds Alex back and asks him to just go. Alex tells Gwen that he will call her later and kisses her. Alex warns Xander that this isn’t over. Xander says anytime, anywhere as Alex then walks away. Gwen then questions what the hell is wrong with Xander. Xander argues that Alex shoved him first. Gwen asks why he’s doing this since he made it very clear that he didn’t want her, so she questions why he cares if somebody else does. Xander argues that Alex isn’t good enough for her. Gwen asks if Xander thinks of her as sloppy seconds now that Sarah is gone. Xander says that was just talk. Gwen doesn’t want his apologies. Gwen says she took him at his word when he said he didn’t see a future with her and that’s fine, but she’ll be damned if his antics prevent her from moving on with her life. Gwen declares that what she does with Alex is none of Xander’s concern. Gwen tells Xander to leave them the hell alone and storms off.

Brady visits Kristen in prison. Kristen says she was surprised that he wanted to see her. Kristen guesses that Chloe came crying to him about their little tiff. Brady says he knows nothing about that and hasn’t spoken to Chloe. Brady questions why Chloe would come to see her anyway. Kristen says they spoke on the telephone. Brady suggests Kristen leave Chloe the hell alone. Kristen claims she merely called to offer her condolences on the end of Chloe’s relationship with Stefan and then Chloe got testy and called their daughter a monster. Brady stops her and says he doesn’t want to hear it. Kristen mocks how she can’t say one bad word about Chloe. Brady doesn’t know why he tries with her. Brady has a picture that Rachel drew for Kristen in art class. Kristen asks to see it but Brady says he wants something from her first.

Leo goes to his room at the Salem Inn and starts typing on his laptop, commenting that thanks to Chloe not using her inside voice, his second gossip column is going to put the first one to shame. Chloe shows up at his door. Leo jokes about writing his new column. Chloe cries that he can’t print that column since he only heard one side of the conversation that was taken out of context. Leo says he’s sorry but he has a responsibility to his readers. Chloe pleads with him and says she’s desperate. Leo asks how desperate she is.

Stephanie tells Paulina that they are so relieved that she and Chanel can finally put this whole nightmare behind them. Chad assures that SJPR will put tons of positive press behind any of her business ventures. Paulina says she will be counting on that and suggests she and Stephanie sign a new contract for her to handle all of her PR needs. Abe says that will give he and Chad a chance to catch up so Paulina and Stephanie exit together.

Chloe offers to pay Leo off. Leo questions if she’s attempting to bribe him from printing the truth. Chloe tells him to just take the money and do the right thing for once by keeping an innocent child from getting hurt even more. Leo asks if she means the innocent child that she called a monster that’s going to turn out like her deranged mother. Chloe argues that he wasn’t supposed to hear that and calls it a mistake that she deeply regrets. Chloe asks if Leo’s never said anything that he wishes he could take back. Leo calls regrets a waste of time. Chloe asks what will buy his silence if cash won’t work. Leo brings up that he has a big fan of Basic Black’s latest men’s line but Chloe informs him that she no longer works there which Leo says he hadn’t heard. Leo points out that maybe Nicole could hook her up. Chloe agrees to call her. Leo asks for one of everything from the men’s collection and then no one will have to know about her hateful outburst. Chloe screams fine and storms out.

Kristen questions what kind of game Brady is playing. Brady responds that she’s the one who likes games and he’s just trying to stay one step ahead of her. Brady says Kristen can have Rachel’s drawing as soon as she helps convince Rachel to ease up on Chloe. Kristen says no chance and tells him that he can keep the picture. Brady warns that he can withhold much more than just a drawing from her. Kristen asks what that means. Brady says she knows exactly what that means and calls it a symbol of what she could lose. Brady orders Kristen to write a letter to Rachel, saying she’s no longer harboring animosity towards Chloe and that she is fine with he and Chloe being together. Brady warns that if she doesn’t, she’s not going to see Rachel ever again.

Chloe exits the Salem Inn and calls Nicole, saying she needs one of everything from the men’s line sent to Leo Stark ASAP and that she’ll explain later. Chloe says she really appreciates this and owes her one. Chloe thanks her and hangs up. Chloe then sees Xander sitting on the bench nearby with ice on his hand and asks what happened to him. Xander tells her about punching Alex because he’s sleeping with his ex. Chloe assumes he means Sarah but then realizes and can’t believe they are fighting over Gwen. Chloe calls Gwen just as slimy as Leo, who she calls sadistic. Xander asks about her being pissed at Leo. Chloe informs him that Leo just blackmailed her. Xander asks what he’s holding over her. Chloe refuses to say or else she’ll have two people blackmailing her. Xander assures he won’t do that and states that while Leo works for him, he’s not his biggest fan. Chloe then informs Xander that Leo overheard her saying something negative about Brady’s daughter and now he’s threatening to put it in his column unless she gives him thousands of dollars worth of Basic Black merchandise.

Alex goes to the Titan office and tells Maggie that he’s sorry he’s late. Maggie questions him being sorry when they are due in the conference room in five minutes. Maggie asks what happened to his face. Alex responds that Xander happened. Maggie starts to ask but then decides she doesn’t want to know. Maggie says she needs to get to the meeting. Alex says he’ll freshen up and be right behind her. Maggie says she can’t have Titan looking like a gang of hooligans and then points out that he has blood on his shirt, so she declares that she’s taking this meeting alone. Maggie warns that when she gets back, they are going to have a serious conversation about his future at this company. Maggie then exits the office. Alex sits at the desk and looks in the mirror as Gwen arrives to check on him. Alex complains that Maggie is already totally fed up with him. Gwen blames herself but Alex says he’s the one that let Xander get under his skin and he started the fight. Gwen points out that Xander targeted him because of her. Gwen suggests maybe they should just call it quits. Alex says no way and that a little bump on the head is not going to scare him off. Alex thinks they should let this ride and see where it takes them. Gwen agrees that it sounds like a plan as they kiss.

Chloe gets a call back from Nicole that all the clothes were just delivered to Leo. Chloe thanks Nicole and says she owes her life to her. Chloe tells her she loves her and hangs up. Chloe declares that she is now off the hook and safe from Leo’s column. Xander says it appears not as he then reveals that Leo just published his new column, showing Chloe that it says that Chloe called Brady’s daughter a deranged monster just like her mother. Chloe can’t believe it and calls Leo a double crossing snake. Chloe says she and Brady finally had a chance for a fresh start. Xander encourages that they still can and suggests telling him it’s just lies. Chloe cries that it’s not and she actually said that. Chloe complains that she let Kristen goad her in to insulting their daughter and now when Brady sees this, she’s going to lose him forever. Chloe breaks down crying so Xander hugs her.

Kristen asks Brady if this is how it’s going to be until Rachel is 18 with a tug of war of threats. Brady argues that she made it this way when he didn’t want it to be. Brady blames Kristen for using their daughter as a weapon against the woman he loves. Kristen accuses Brady of using her love for her daughter against her.

Chad calls that obvious. Abe notes that Stephanie makes Chad feel the same way as they joke about being lucky.

Paulina and Stephanie go to Paulina’s office building. Paulina comments on Stephanie’s satisfying grin all morning and the twinkle in her eye. Paulina guesses it’s because Chad has been lighting up her days and hopefully her nights too.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Ooh for me. You shouldn’t have, I didn’t. Hmm? My mistake. Just keep it. Oh, thanks boss. Man. Don’t mind if I do, I could use the boost. I didn’t get much sleep last night. Hmm. Gonna tell me you’re, don’t tell me you arrived. Digging through residential trash cans again for your. Police, after the success of Lady Whistleblowers first installment, I have tipsters lined up around the block to feed me morsels.

Finally, problem now is, what do I call my groupies little ladies? Little blow spare. Bottom line, Mr. Publisher. I have more sources than I know what to do with, which should make you very happy. My little column’s gonna have the spectator back in the black in no time. Ah, from your lips to our accountants is wait.

If you weren’t out tracking down scoops to the wee small hours, what to keep you up last night? Nevermind. I have zero interest in hearing about your sex life. Oh, well it wasn’t my sex life that robbed me of my beauty. It was Gwen’s.

Oh my God.

Oh wow. You are incredible. You’re so yourself,

so no more regrets. About hooking up with me again. I mean, I know Cousin Zander isn’t too thrilled about us being friends with extremely good benefits. You know what, Zander’s opinion doesn’t matter to me anymore, and that’s the last I want talk about him.

I’d much rather talk about you. Alexus and specifically that incredible is the trick that you did with your

this true.

Good morning, Sandra. Um, would you send Alex in, please? Oh, he’s not. I see. Oh yeah, sure. Of course. Send him in instead. Thanks.

Hi. Uh oh, Greaty. It’s so good to see you. Boom. Boom. Oh my goodness. Oh. Says beautiful flowers. Thank you, Adam. C e o oh oh oh. Family business. Could not be in better hands. Oh, thank you. That’s very kind. Well, it’s true, it’s true. Although I was, I was a good surprised that granddad passed over, Alex, to put you in charge.

But yeah, I’m surprised Alex, too, especially, he’s not a happy one. Mm-hmm. , but I think he’s coming around. Speaking of Alex, he should have been here by now. We have a very important meeting this morning with a content syndicator. He’s interested in distributing digital articles from Titans Publications. Oh my gosh.

Listen to you, you, you sound like you’ve been in charge of a major conglomerate for the, I don’t know, your whole life. What can I say? Quick study. . I’m so, so proud of you. Uh, thank you, Brady. That means a lot. Well, I just hope that granddad doesn’t keep you so busy at Titan that you will not have any more time to be my sponsored a.

Don’t be ridiculous. I wouldn’t let this job or anything else keep me away from being there for you. I’m glad to hear that. Just to be honest with you, this whole situation with Chloe is, it’s been, it’s been pretty tough and I’ve been struggling a little bit, Maggie. Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. Have you been going to meetings?

No, not lately. Nothing. Brady. I know, I know Brady. It’s okay. It’s okay. I’m okay. I will go. I will. Okay.

Hello? Uh, yeah, I guess I’ll accept the charge. Who the hell’s calling me from Statesville? Hello? Hello, Chloe. It’s your old friend Kristen.

Like Sam, through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Good morning, sleepy head, . Good morning. What’s all this? Oh, it’s just breakfast in bed. Well, I can see that, but what’s the occasion? Well, it’s the first night you slept over. Thought that was worth celebrating

and.

I wanted to say thank you for what? For, for giving me, for opening my big mouth to Leo.

Well, aren’t you the least bit curious who Gwen was hooking up with last night? Couldn’t care less. Well, if you don’t care, then you want my knowing. Leo, it was your smoking hot cousin, Alex.

Oh my God.

Well,

I put two into shame actually all day’s. Word, me, millennium. Speaking of work, I think I gotta get going baby. Got a big morning meeting at Titan and the old boss lady is gonna kick my ass. If I show a blade enough, I take a quick shower

actually. Plus

we have that shower together.

Damn good plan. Mm-hmm. tricks.

What do you want, Kristen? Oh, is that any way to talk to your future sister-in-law? Oh wait, actually you’re nothing to me and never will be. Now that Stephan has come to his sensors and dumped your pathetic ass, he didn’t come to his senses. You psycho. He was deprogrammed or do you not remember your little brainwashing scheme with Lee and Rolf?

God, you call me pathetic. You were so desperate to keep me and Brady apart that you. You know what? I don’t have time for this. Go to hell, Chloe. Don’t you dare hang up. I have got something that you damn well need to hear.

Oh, sorry I’m late, Dawn. I’m late. . Couple minutes. You know, , I took the privilege of ordering forest. Oh, and half a grapefruit And two egg white omelets. Turkey sausage . No, no, no, no, no, no. . You’re gonna have to tell the cook. 86. The health plate. I want pancake cakes and scrambled eggs, yolks included, and bacon.

Two extra sides of it. We’re celebrating Abraham Carver and breakfast is on me. All right, well then I assume that they’ll succeeded in getting your assets unfrozen. Oh, no. If she did so much more than that, she got the whole case dismissed. Shaone, the devil herself. Peterson is out of. Forever,

Chad, we’ve been over this. I know that you were only trying to defend me. Yeah. But I should have let you deal with it and I should have never brought up your mom. Especially not to somebody like Leo. Well, like I. You were just trying to get him to back off and I shouldn’t have been so hard on you. I’m really sorry.

I’m sorry too. It was a big thing about our first fight though. Oh, what’s that? As we got to spend all night.

So there I was having just exfoliated getting ready to tuck in and watch that sexy nerd Seth Meyers. When I get an urgent text from Gwen, she was bringing Alex home and I had to scr before they got. And since a certain newspaper man barred me from crashing at the spectator offices, I ended up on one of those lumpy lounge sofas.

At the end. Side note, I need to speak with management about cleaning the furnishings. A spritz of lavender or something. I can’t believe it. I know, right? The least a five star in could do is provide appropriate accommodations for those of us displaced by their promiscuous roommates, not Alex. Him steer clear of Gwen, he didn’t listen to me.

Well, at the risk of facing the wrath of Zandy, I don’t think you’re in a position to tell two single hot people not to do what hot people do. Best present, company included. Okay, my my point is, is that you had your chance, it’s paraphrase for legal certain queen, if you were interested in said parties should put appropriate matrimonial jewelry on said party’s finger.

Right.

Well, I’ve gotta get to work. I’ll see you at the office, boss. Man,

I just really thought once this whole situation with Stephan was resolved, that Chloe and I would be fine and we’d be together and I just feel like We’re further apart than we’ve ever been. Those are Rachel. Yeah, my little girl. My beautiful big eyed. Big smiley girl. She, uh, she’s never had an unkind word to say about anybody ever up until the last couple months.

Mm. And now she des, she despises Chloe. How the hell am I supposed to handle that? Well, I don’t know. Would you like for me to talk to her? I appreciate you saying that, but I don’t think it would do any good. Mm-hmm. honestly. Kristen has done such a good job of turning her against Chloe, that anytime anyone brings up that subject, Rachel just shuts down or she goes on the attack or she has a tantrum.

Well, I wish I could say I’ve been surprised by Kristen using her own daughter in that manner, but we both know that that woman will stop at nothing to get what she wants. It’s true. The only thing she wants right now, the her, her main goal in life right now. Hmm. It is just to keep cling me apart. Go on.

What the hell do I need to hear? Well, you’ve heard it before, since you don’t seem to retain anything in that pea size brain of yours, and since Stephan dumped you for a woman who actually has a personality, meaning you’re on the market again, and I will say this for the umpteenth time. You stay the hell away from Brady.

Let’s get one thing straight. Kristin, who I choose to date is none of your damn business. Well, it is my damn business when it concerns the welfare of my daughter. Well, I’m going to say this one more time. Since you can’t seem to retain anything in that evil, twisted brain of yours, I would never do anything to hurt Rachel.

Well, you obviously not endeared yourself to her. In fact, Chloe, she can’t stand the side of. And whose fault is that? You’ve done everything in your power to turn that little girl against me. Well, I didn’t have to do much. My sweet Rachel is an excellent judge of character. Your sweet Rachel is now a little monster, and if you and Brady aren’t careful, she’s gonna grow up to become just as deranged as her mother.

That’s what I’m talking about,

You know, it’s so good to see that beautiful smile on your face again. Oh, well, you can expect to see even more these pearling whites now that we are rid of Sloane Peterson and all of her awful lies.

So, well, where’s your? You know, I’m, I’m relieved. I’m relieved that Sloan’s bogus civil case has been thrown out, but I’d be lying to say that I wasn’t concerned about her latest threat against you and Chanel. Police. Sloan Peterson has been selling wolf tickets ever since she showed her sour puss here in Salem

She’s not scar anybody anymore. The biggest mistake that we made was even given that woman one drop of our energy to feed off of. It’s time to move on. I know the perfect way to do it,

huh? Oh, who know? Who? Who are you calling? Someone more than capable of letting the citizens of Salem. Oh hell. Even the entire world know Paulina Price is back in business and better than ever.

I guess this means our first sleepover at your house is officially over. Oh, I wanna sleepover at wa. Hmm. First of many. I hope better be

it’s Paul. Paulina, good morning and it’s going to get even better, but I need you and Chad to meet me at the Pub Toronto. Okay, I will let him know. See you soon.

What’s that? We’ve been summoned to the pub pronto. Did she say why? No. What She did sound very chipper. Well, it’s one thing I know that’s not to keep Pauline apprentice. Wait. Shall,

how dare you call my daughter a monster, an innocent little girl who is heartbroken because she was separated from her mother. If anyone is a monster, Chloe, it’s you. Look, I, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. I lost my temper. Okay. , you pushed my buttons. Mm-hmm. . Mm-hmm. . Blame it on me like everything else. It’s my fault that you finally expressed your rational hatred from my daughter.

You hurling these vicious insults at me. Damn you, Kristen. Don’t ever call me again,

Leo. Hey, uh, I didn’t see you there That much is obvious, girlfriend. Otherwise, I doubt you would’ve been calling Brady’s daughter a little monster. . Oh wait, what are you doing? Just jotting down some notes. I find it very interesting that a certain sale mite thinks another Salem’s daughter is the next Rhoda pen.

Oh, that’s the little girl from the bad seat, played by the inimitable Patty McCormack. In case you haven’t seen the movie, Leo, please, it’s clear you despise the girl for wrecking your relationship. You, you can’t print what you just overheard. Please. I’ll be seeing you Ms. Lane on the gossip page.

I had a great time last. And this morning? Mm-hmm. , how about you? Smashing?

I think we should do it again sometime. Yeah, I think we should. The rare double walking shame. Whos ashamed? I wasn’t talking to you guys. Why should I be ashamed? Well, you certainly can’t be proud, can you that you invited Salem’s most notorious manslaughter into your Becca? I hope you use protection. God knows what kind of STDs he has.

All right, that’s enough. Cause I’m a little bit curious though, Alex, what’s it like? Lapping up a heart serving of my sloppy seconds. You know, I’d really watch your mouth if I were you, mom, boy, why? What are you gonna do if I don’t? Okay, look, Alex, let’s just go. Let’s just walk away, shall we? Yes. Alexis, listen to your little playmate here before I have to teach you a lesson.

You most certainly did not learn in a prep school.

Good morning. Good morning. Holly know what so urgent. Well, I’m happy to announce a drum roll, please. Oh, please, yes.

Sloan Peterson’s frivolous lawsuit has been thrown out. Boom. What? Which means I am now once again a control of, oh my vast real estate holdings. Price. That is so great. That’s incredible news. Congratulations, . Oh yes, thank you. Thank you, . But there’ll be plenty of time for celebrating later. Right now I need SJ p R to put on a press release announcing my victory.

I want the whole world to know that if you want to mess with the best, which is me, you must be prepared to lose cause pulling the prices. One woman who never backs down from a.

Enough trust. Fun. Is that it? Hey, hey. Stop, stop, stop. Alex, you are already late for work. You should go here. Should go now. That’s okay. Excellent advice. Actually, you don’t want, aren’t he mags breaking out the rule and wrapping your knuckles, do you? No. No. Alex, peace please. Just.

Fine, we’ll call you later.

This is an over, oh, anytime, anywhere you want me to, even up that face of yours, just let me know.

What the hell is wrong with you? Me. He shoved me. Why are you doing this? You made it very, very clear that you don’t want me, so why should you care if somebody else does that? Playboy isn’t good enough for you, Gwen,

I see what this is. You, your precious. Sarah’s no longer here, so you’ll just settle for work. What did you call me Sloppy. Is that really, is that really what you’re thinking? Of course not. I was just, you know, I was just talk. Yeah. Well, you said it with a lot of conviction, didn’t you? I’m sorry. I don’t want your apologies.

You know when you told me how you felt about me, I took you at your word. You don’t see a future with me. And that’s fine, but I will be damned if your Neanderthal antics prevent me from moving on with my life. What I do with Alex is none of your bloody concern. Do you hear me? Zander?

So you just leave us the Hello? Hello?

I was surprised that you wanted to see me. Let me guess. Chloe came crying to you about our little Tiff. Tiff? Mm-hmm. . No, I don’t know anything about that. I haven’t spoken to Chloe. Why would she come here to see you anyway? Oh, we talked on this new invention called the telephone. Hey, here’s something new.

Why don’t you try leaving her the hell alone? Why don’t you do that? Calm down, Brady. I merely offered my condolence suit about the end of her relationship with my brother, and she got testy and she got nasty and she called our daughter a monster Brady. Say this. I don’t wanna hear it. Of course. You don me to think I could say one bad word about your dimwitted little song.

God, I don’t even, I don’t even know why to try with you.

Is that for me?

Yeah. Yeah. This is a, this is a picture that Rachel drew for you in our.

I want something from you first.

Thanks to Chloe Lane not using her inside voice. The second installment of Lady Whistleblower is going to put the first one to shame.

All right. All right.

Who is it? It’s Chloe Lane. Ms. Lane do come in. Are you here to borrow a cup of sugar? Do you know damn well why I’m here? Oh, right, because I’m finishing up my new column to kill a songbird. The social life and death of Chloe Lane. Leo, you cannot print that column. What? What you heard was one side of a conversation.

It was taken outta context. I’m sorry you’re out of luck. I have a responsibility to my readers and they know I chant to be silenced. Please, Leo. I’m desperate. Desperate, huh? Well, that’s an interesting new wrinkle. How desperate.

This price. We are so relieved that you and Chanel can finally put this nightmare behind you. You’re here, and if I may speak for both of us, you can count on SJ p r to generate tons of positive press in any of your upcoming business ventures. Well, I’m counting on you both to do just that . In fact, Stephanie, why don’t you and I head back to the office now?

Re-up your contract to handle all my PR needs. . Uh, you boys don’t mind, do you? No. No. That’ll give Chad me a, a chance to catch up. Wow, what he said. . Well, all righty then. Okay, young lady. Let’s move it. . Alright. Let’s give this. Mm-hmm. . There you go.

I am sorry, Chloe, are you attempting to bribe a lady of the fourth estate to prevent her from printing the truth? Just take the money you bottom feeding little twerp. Do the right thing for once and keep an innocent child from getting hurt even more than she already has been. Innocent child. You mean the innocent child?

You call the little monster who’s gonna turn out like her deranged mother. That innocent child. She weren’t supposed to hear that. If a tree falls in the forest and no one’s there to hear it is said tree’s, boyfriend’s daughter, not still profoundly insulted. What are you talking about? L Look what I said to Kristen was a mistake and I deeply, deeply regret it.

Haven’t you ever said anything that you wished you could have taken back? No. Regret is a waste of time and it costs us friend. God damn it. Well, if cash won’t fire your silence, then what will? Well, let’s see. I am a big fan of Basic Black’s. Latest men’s line used to work there, right? No, I do not. Oh, I hadn’t heard that.

But your bff, Nicole Walker still does. Yeah. Maybe she can hook us, assist up if you ask nicely. Okay. Yes, I will call her. Excellent. I believe it was Jeff Pulitzer who said it best? Show me the swag. The tongue won’t wa it’s a Joseph Pulitzer. You dolt. That’s what I said. Anyway, get me one of everything from the men’s collection in a size small, or am I a medium better?

Make it a S medium. You do that. Nobody has to know about your hateful outburst. My lips and my laptop will remain. Fine. Fine. Ooh,

What kinda game are you playing? Brady? You’re the one that likes games. Kristen, you love games. I’m just trying to keep one step ahead of you. Oh, what? By withholding a drawing that our daughter made from me, and people say, I’m cruel. Kristin, you can have the. As soon as you help me convince Rachel to ease up on Chloe, not a chance.

What’s one picture? Just keep it,

you know, I can, uh, I can withhold much more than just, uh, die from here. What is that supposed to mean? We know exactly what it means though, right? I want you to think of this as just a symbol. Of what you could lose. You are gonna write a letter to Rachel telling her that you no longer harbor any animosity towards Chloe, and that you are fine with Daddy and Chloe being together.

Okay? If you don’t, you are not gonna see Rachel live again.

Yeah. I need. Everything from the men’s line sent to Leo Stark at the Salem and asap. I will explain later. Medium. Yeah, I know Nicole. I really, I appreciate this. I, I, I really, really owe you on. Thank you.

What happened to you?

My, uh, cousin Alex. He smashed his smug pointy little face into my fist. And why would he do such a thing? Sleep with my ex. Oh, Sarah’s back. I’m not Sarah. Oh wait, don’t tell me you two. Were fighting over Gwen Riz check. Ugh. She’s just a slimy. As her pal Leo starts. Actually, that guy’s worse. He’s sadistic little.

I thought I could hold a grudge. You’re still pissed at Leo, I promise. Taking you down to the cleaners, huh? No, I have a much more pressing reason to hate the guy. That little vermin just blackmailed me. What’s he holding over? I’m not gonna tell you that I’ll have two people holding something over. Nah, clay, I’m not gonna do that.

Trust me, Leo works for me, but I’m not exactly his biggest fan. You know what I mean? Fine. Leo overheard me saying something negative about Brady’s daughter and now he’s threatening to publish it in his column unless I give him thousands of dollars worth of basic black merchandise.

Sorry, I’m late. You’re sorry, Alex. We are doing the conference room in five minutes and what happened to your. Sander happened. Sander, and what did you, no, you know what? Just scratch that. I don’t wanna know. I need to get to this meeting. Okay, well, let me just freshen up real quick and I’m right behind you.

Hell no. I can’t let Titan look like a gang of hooligans. Is that blood on your shirt?

Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no. Are not going anywhere near that conference room. I’m taking this meeting alone, auntie

oh oh oh oh. And Alex, when I get back here, you and I are gonna have a serious conversation. About your future at this company,

knock.

I would go easy on the eyeshadow next time. Hmm, good call. Um, I told your assistant that I had an appointment. I hope my little fear isn’t going to get you in trouble with boss Maggie. Trust me, one, your little fib would be a drop in the bucket. As far as Maggie’s concerned, she’s already totally fed up with me.

I’m so sorry, Alex. This is all my fault. How is it your fault? When I’m the one that let Xander under my skin? I started that whole stupid fight. Yeah. But Xander targeted you because of me.

Um, you know, um, maybe we should just, you know, call it.

No way. A little bump on head is not gonna scare me off. Zander be damned. I think that we should let this ride and see what it takes us. What do you think? It’s like a plan. It sounds like a plan.

I do your makeup next time.

Oh, amazing. So it was all just delivered. Oh, thank you. Of course, Leo didn’t tip your delivery person. He’s such a stingy little creep. Nicole, thank you. I, I owe you my life. Thank. Love you. Bye. Ugh. I am off hook. Leo got his merchandise. Now I’m saved from that gossip column. Ah, Chloe. I’m afraid no one is saved from the lady.

What is that supposed to mean? Leo just turned in this new column, Chloe Lane Brady. Daughter is a deranged monster like her mother. Oh my God. That double crossing snake Xander. After everything that Brady and I have been through, we finally had a chance at a fresh start. Now you still did. You, you tell Brady that is so alive, but it’s not.

I actually said this. I let Kristin der go me into insulting their daughter, and now when Brady sees this, I am gonna lose him forever. Oh my God. On my God.

Is this house gonna be till Rachel’s 18? A tug of war of threats back and forth. I threatened to take her away from you. You threatened to take her away from me. You made it the. I did not want it to be like this. Oh, right, right, right. Because I am always the bad guy. You are the one that stoked Rachel’s resentment of Chloe in the first place.

Okay. You have used our daughter as a weapon against the woman that I love. You are using my love for my daughter against me. You’re no better than I am, Brady.

Maybe not, but I’m the one holding the cards right now.

I will write Chloe a letter of recommendation to our daughter. Will that satisfy you?

Make it glowing,

Well, you and Stephanie seem to be getting along pretty well these days. Yeah. Yeah. Things are good. And the kids, they love her. Well, dad seems to be pretty fond of her too. I am. I don’t have to tell you how hard it is to move on after you lose the, the love of your life. No. No, you don’t. You know, I never thought I’d find in love again after I lost your sister, but Paulina.

Well, she makes me very happy. It’s obvious. . Well, it’s also obvious that Stephanie makes you feel the same way she does. Couple of lucky old dogs are we? Indeed we are. Uh, don’t think I ever noticed that satisfying little grin on your face all morning. Really? Hmm. I’ve been grinning. Or maybe it’s the twinkle in your eye.

Uh, whatever it is. , I’m guessing it’s because Chad has been lighting up your day and hopefully you are nice too. Am. . I like to remain professional and discreet, but yes, he’s been lighting up my dates and my night . Oh, I knew it. Oh, a woman. A woman can sense these things. . I’m so happy for you. After all that awfulness with.

Yeah. Yeah. That was a bad situation. Mm-hmm. . Well, you have yourself a winner now. Just like my Abraham. Oh, I’m telling you Stephanie. Oh, everything. Everything is coming up Roses for me and for.

Oh my God. Oh my God.

Neil, I’m troubling you. I mean, normally I wouldn’t ask about someone else’s life, but your sadness amuses me, . I’m trying to text this girl I met at a party. It’s so much pressure. I feel like I’m gonna die. Neil picking up a pizza from Chuck E. Cheese doesn’t count as a party. . It was a real party. For my grandmother’s 90th birthday at her care home

Oh, that’s the stuff. But I did meet a very cute nurse. Her scrubs had puppies on them, so I told her I have a puppy. I’ll have to figure that out later.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Morning baby mama. Oh, I see you took down that health one sign . And I’m sorry I had to put down my foot about it. Mama left. Chanel. Chanel . No, I know you run off your feet put Allie gone. But it’s outta my hands. The court won’t let you hire anybody. Mama, you didn’t let me finish. I already did.

Mm God. I love these Brady Pub Muffins.

Mm. I’m not so sure what, I dunno. Something’s missing. Trying to figure out what it is. Brown sugar? Mm-hmm. . Oh yeah. How come I didn’t think of that? You know, it’d be more perfect that you had added a little bit more of a caramel note too. Caramel note, huh? Yeah. Everything else is great though. I mean, I still can’t believe you get to roll out of bed and have breakfast like this waiting for you.

What? Well, don’t get too used to it. Now that you found a job, you’re gonna have to find your own place too. I don’t plan on sharing my bed with my little sister forever. Why not? It’s not like you’re sharing it with anybody else.

Commissioner, find a house. Call come bearing documents. Still think you’re making a mistake, but uh, you want to drop the charges against Brady and Eric, you’re gonna need to sign on the dotted line. I do. Don’t come in. Okay. Look, don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I enjoyed being kidnapped and worked over by a met scientist, but gotta say I can’t complain about the end.

Come. Right? Yeah. You made that clear. So why did the police commissioner find it necessary to run this errand in person? Well, actually, I’m not just here to have you sign documents. I’m also here about my sister, Gabby,

you won’t regret agreeing to take this meeting, Mr. Sax. Hmm. In fact, I’m, I’m very confident that you’ll be impressed with my wife. She’s not only a a, a brilliant businesswoman. She’s extraordinarily creative. Good morning, Mrs.

Good morning, and it’s been a very enjoyable one so far.

Oh, a text really this hour. It’s not a text. It’s an alert.

It’s an alert to let me know if there’s any job opportunities for a photo. and it’s may be covered because of you and I appreciate it, but I need to fill my daytime hours.

What a lovely way to wake up. Did you sleep well? Better than I have in. O I don’t know how long, uh, well, not having a drug-induced hangover probably helps, no doubt. You know, maybe what also helps is you and Stephan finally sitting down and hashing everything out. Yeah, about that. There’s a bit more to the story.

Hmm. We’ll film in, please. Yes, Ste and I hashed things out, but that doesn’t mean everything’s settled far from that, you see. Though my brother may not know it. I’m as committed as I am and was to taking him down

like sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Stop. Stop. What? The alert. Just cancel it. Sorry. I need a job. Right. No, I get that. But not just any job. You’re incredibly talented. Eric, a wonderful photographer. So who needs a boss? Hmm? You should be your own boss. You should open up your own gallery.

I don’t understand. I mean, not that I expected you and Stefan to become best friends. I understand. Look, I said all the right things to him. But I did have my fingers crossed behind my back, as did my brother, I’m sure. And it’s obvious he wants what he’s always wanted Lee out of the way, Gabby in his life, and the two of them running the mirror, which I am not going to allow to happen, meaning I have to stop the two of them teaming up to sme.

Okay? And how are you gonna accomplish? Well, they’re forming my own team, of course, which I’ve actually already done with Lee Shin.

Mm-hmm. . I look forward to it as well. Yeah, talk soon then. Thanks. So how much did you hear? I heard your comments about me, your very effusive comments, all of them sincere. You want this deal for your fashion line to go through at Saxons, don’t you? What I, no. I haven’t even agreed to go in and pitch them and hear you her setting it up.

Well, you seem intrigued enough last night you took all the paperwork to bed with you. Just curious. That’s all. It doesn’t mean I’m ready to make a deal. It’s just an initial meeting and no one’s gonna rush you into anything. Gabby, I want you to have an outlet. This incredible creativity of yours and Saxton seems very interested, but if, if I’m being too pushy, I can always call them back and cancel the meeting.

So can I assume that Gabby living with Lee bugs the hell outta you as much as it does me. I hate it a lot. Figured as much, although I will admit, I, uh, don’t really know all the details of their arrangement considering Gabby, uh, well, she stopped confiding in me since she knows how I feel about Lee as opposed to all the warm and fuzzies you feel about me.

Well, let’s just say that he makes you look. Uh, now with that said, I hope to hell you, uh, haven’t given up on getting her away from. Oh no. Never giving up on that. You can bank on it. Good, good. Just be careful. You know, Shannon obviously already tried to pull the plug on you once. I, uh, don’t think he really likes competition.

I’m not competition shin. I’m gonna blow that son of a bitch out of the water.

A gallery. Me. Well, when I couldn’t fall asleep last night, I spent a good hour going through your portfolio. Eric, you would have no trouble filling in entire gallery’s walls, especially with those photos you took in Africa, . Now you’ve been building this whole library of images. And meanwhile, you set alerts on your phone for someone who has a 10 of your talent, hoping that they’ll dein to hire you.

Listen, I need a job, Sloan. No. What you need is to take charge of your career. You know, I appreciate your support, but I mean, God getting a gallery space, do you know what it takes? It takes money to buy the supplies, not to mention a gallery. So how am I supposed to find that I have the perfect place? It’s called Sweet Bits.

You may remember the person I hired. Her name is Talia and she is perfect for sweet bits. I remember her fine. You are the one forgetting we can Scott throwing money around Chan. Now every penny we spin is being watched by the court. Damn it, mama. I can’t believe Sloane Peterson got that judge to sign off on a plan like this.

Please tell me that bail is working on getting that freeze on our accounts reversed. Believe me, she’s trying. I mean, she’s hoping to get the whole crazy case that’s missed, but we have to be realistic. Baby girl. She’s a lawyer, not a miracle worker. Okay, well, neither am I and I can’t rent a successful bakery without any.

I need to swoop in and lock Talia down before I lose her. But what if you made this girl an unpaid intern? No. Nope. Just until the lawsuit is over. I cannot do that. Mama. She worked at one of the most successful bakeries in New York City. I mean, I have to offer her a competitive salary or else someone else in Salem is gonna snap her up in.

Now I guess you need to win the lottery.

I open my door to you, give you a place to lay your head, and this is the things I get grief about my love life. I was just joking. Really? You thought that was funny? Ugh, you’re too sensitive, Jada. And look, I’m not with anyone else either right now and it’s fine. Me and you we’re independent women, right?

We do just fine on our own. That we do. So here’s to the both of us flying solo.

So how long has it been, since what? Since that flying solo and here I thought we were dropping the subject. Fine. It’s none of my business. No, it’s. But I, I have nothing to hide. I broke up with someone a few months ago. Wow. A few months. It’s a long time. My breakup was pretty loose. I’m doing fine, Talia, and I’m sure you are.

But is there someone new on the horizon at least?

After my brother and I got honest with each other, I invited Lee over to tell him that I’m willing to join forces, and now he knows that I fully support his reconciliation with Gabby, and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen. Okay. And what did you tell him about the situation with Stephan?

Nothing he can use against. Leon knows what I want him to know, and more importantly, Leoni heard what he’s willing to hear, and in return I got an earful. Meaning, meaning he’s cooked up some wonderful distraction for Gabby one, which she’s just made.

Don’t cancel. The meeting won’t look on either one of us if I bail now. So I’ll go in beat with sex and see what happens. I actually know what will happen. You’ll go in there and press the hell out of them. Before you know it, everyone will forget all about Gabby Sheik and your new designs will leave them in the dust.

Okay. You can dial down on the flattery. I know how good I am. Oh, it doesn’t hurt to be reminded, does it? I’m gonna go get ready for this meeting. Oh. Then I’ll make you breakfast to remember.

So Gabby might have a new fashion line through Saxon’s department stores. Department starts, right? So while Stephan’s forced to sneak around, try and statue a few stolen moments with. She’ll be going to bed every night just a few feet from the man who revived the artistic side of her career. My Gabby’s in love with Stephan, and she’s mourned him for years.

She’s never gonna be able to stay away from him. Mm. And that’s where things get interesting. Oh boy. How so? He filled me in on a very important stipulation in his and Gabby’s deal. She will get his Demir shares if she remains in the marriage for six months, but only if she remains faithful. Oh my God. The contract actually has a fidelity.

one, which I might be able to take advantage of. Aj, you’re playing a dangerous game. What if Stephan finds out what you’re doing behind his back? ? Well, I like taking risks. That’s the fun in life, isn’t it? Wouldn’t you say? Yeah, bet. I guess it depends on what that risk is. Wow. Getting involved with someone romantically.

That’s risky business, isn’t it? Since one. You can have that poor little heart. True, but it’s definitely fun nonetheless. Wouldn’t you agree? Yes.

The hell do you think you’re doing? Getting dressed. This is my bedroom. Remember living out a suitcase over here, unless of course you wanna change our sleeping agreement, invite me into your bedroom. Nice try. I’m gonna go get ready myself. Hey, listen for breakfast, um, egg white omelet with spinach butter toast, coffee, black.

Coming up.

Hello Stephan Lee. What the hell are you doing? Answering Gabby’s phone.

Uh, sweet bits. They’re going out of. Well, Chanel and Paul might not know that yet, but yes, and once I win my case against them, the space is mine. I want better use of it than for your gallery. Are you sure about this? Did it all win? No. Yes. No. No, no. But this is a good idea. Look, I get it. You don’t wanna take business away from Chanel and you won’t be, you know, that’s, that’s my job.

And believe me, I’m really looking forward to doing it. You’re just like the beneficiary. And with the cash I win from my judgment against them. I mean, hey, I can even be an investor too,

me with Brown Gallery. Oh, don’t say no because it’s Complic. Say yes because it’s thrilling.

You better get that. This maybe. About the case. Hold on, on Peterson here.

What?

God, I hated this never ending war with Sloan. Oh, believe me. Believe me. I hate it too. And you are right. This is war. That’s why we need to think strategically now. If you hire this girl, it’s gonna look like you’re trying to put one over on the court, and then the judge will penalize you and then Sloan wins

it’s bill. Well, well answer. It’s probably about the case. Hello? What

Bella are you. Oh, no, no, no. She knows right here. She’s right here with me now. Y Yeah. Okay. No, I have to call you back. Oh. Oh, Lord. Oh, Lord, Lord, mama. Stop calling for the Lord and tell me what happened. Come on. What did Bell say? Mama? Mama. You’re scaring me. Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t know what we’re gonna do now that we’re gonna have all this free time since Bell got the case thrown out.

Oh, baby throw we free, which

Good morning, brave. Hi. Hi. So, uh, you enjoying your time in Salem so far? You know, I was until about 20 minutes ago when my big sister was saying I was cramping. Her style. Need to move out stack. But little does she know you have to have style to cramp first. . Please feel free to ignore her. Yeah, duly noted.

That’s, what were you guys talking about a second ago when I walked up? This seemed kind of intense. You know, it’s funny you should ask, didn’t you say you have the new Java Co too? You know, we didn’t want you to be late. Oh no, it’s. A good point. You know, now that I’m a baker, I have to get used to the early morning shifts.

Wait, wait, wait. You’re going to be working at a bakery? Mm-hmm. at Sweet Bits in Horton Town Square. You know it. That’s your new job. What’s wrong with that? Sweet Bits has the best donuts in town, and they’ll be even better now that I’m there. What’s going on? Why would you work as a baker? What’s wrong with Bakers?

Nothing. That’s your chosen field, but it isn’t yours now, is it? What am I missing here? It’s just that tie here is not a baker. She’s a doctor.

You’re a doctor? I have a medical degree, yes. Stop making it sound like you just got your learner’s permit. She got her degree from Stanford, one of the best medical schools in the country, and she graduated top 10% of her class. Top 5%. Actually, you know, you’re only proof my point, right? How is working at a baker using any of your talents?

I’m a very talented. When you said you got a job, I assumed it was at University Hospital. I thought it was always your dream to follow in daddy’s footsteps. No, it was daddy’s dream to me. Follow him into medicine. It doesn’t make it mine. But you worked so hard. Who walks away from a career like that? Me.

And you’re right. I don’t wanna be easily from my new job, so I’ll catch you guys later. Bye. Re bye. Bye, Jada.

I wonder if Chanel Dupree knows just how overqualified her new baker is.

So this means I can hire Talia or No, I already hired her. So this means now I don’t have to fire Talia . Oh, you can hire, uh, baker’s dozen of Talia if you want to. Oh, did you see what I just did there? Uhhuh. . Yeah. I, I did what? I’m just way too happy to even complain about your terrible sense of humor. , we owe Bill big time.

Oh, do we ever hold that? Brilliant woman left Sloan. Dust

I wondered how that witch is taking it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It’s okay. Okay. It’s okay. Please. Everything is not okay. That whole lawsuit, everything, everything relied on that, and now it’s dead in the water. They’re murderers, and they won again. Right. It was just a civil case, right? No one was going to prison. It’s about money you have. It was never about the money.

They’ve torn my family apart and they just keep getting away with it because they’re cute and cuddly and fun and everyone loves them. But me, Sloane Peterson, he’s the soest soulless ambulance chaser. God forbid I forget about my mother being pushed off of a roof to her death. She’s like, whatever happens to me, whatever I get taken from me, you know?

Oh, I deserve it.

Sorry, I’m on your side and I’m sorry if. It sound like your case was unimportant.

Is my last shot my,

can I help you? You can help me Lee, by giving Gabby her phone back. I’m afraid. My wife is a little busy right now. Doesn’t have time for Chit Chat. She’s getting dressed for a very important meeting. What meeting? If Gabby thinks it’s any of your business, I’m sure she’ll tell you. It’s just not my place.

The clock is ticking on that little six month deal you. You know what happens when time runs out? I know what will happen if you keep calling here. I also know what will happen if by some bizarre chance you actually succeed attempting her into some secret rendezvous thought of that scares you to death, doesn’t it?

It should scare Gabby to death because she fails to resist you. She’ll lose all those dememer shares and she’ll have you to thank for that because you couldn’t keep it in your pants. So do her a. Do yourself a favor and stay away from my wife, Lee. Lee.

Bitch.

Uh, is there a problem, brother?

Thanks for all your incredible work. Bell, you, you are truly a lifesaver. You don’t know how much of a relief this is to me and Chanel, oh, we are eternally grateful. . Mm-hmm. Oh, oh, you too. Bye now. Oh, what are you working on, honey? Oh, I am revising the budget for Sweet Bits with Talia on board. I’ll be able to add back some of the popular items to our menu, and thanks to Bill, I will be able to actually pay my new employee

I didn’t know that was an issue. , but I’m certainly happy that you can. Hi, Talia. Uh, this is my mother, Paul Price. Mama. This is my new employee, Talia. Oh, I am so sorry. I forgot your last name. I, I know it was on the application. Oh, it’s Hunter. Hunter? Mm-hmm. . Any relation to Detective Jada Hunter? Yeah, she’s my sister.

You know her? No, but I do know of her. My partner arrested me once.

I just don’t get it. She spent all those years in medical school just to become a baker. She’s trying to change her life, pursue her dream. Her dream was to become a doctor and she pursued that dream with a vengeance. Totally driven. Little Miss Overachiever. You heard the way she corrected me about where she graduated at Stanford.

I mean, who does that if they’re not proud of their. Well, it’s certainly something to be proud of. Exactly, but I know better than to try to sit her down and set her straight. It’d be a complete waste of breath. I wanna hear that. I mean, Garo and Gabby, they have made some curious choices over the years, despite my excellent advice.

Must be hard being right outta the time. Mm-hmm. , . And also being the older sibling, you know, we were born to be, um, ignored, disrespected, and resented, but we love those disrespectful, recent, resentful, young ones anyway, don’t we? Dearly . Yes, we do. And we will never stop trying to rescue them from themselves.

Damn right. We won’t.

Hey, will you put that omelet in a container for me? I want to eat it later, but I don’t wanna be late. Wow. Saxtons is about to be deluged with women who wanna look exactly the way you do now. I told you to tone it down on the flattery. Well, why are you dressed up? You don’t think you’re coming with me, do you?

Well, I, I I was the go-between. I, I I’m the one who told them to snatch you up. Yeah, but it’s my pitch. I can do it myself. I don’t need help with that. They are expecting both of us. That’s fine. I can just tell ’em that you’re Stephan called.

I dunno what my problem is. His name’s Lee Shin.

He just told me that Gabby was too busy to talk because she’s headed to some important business meeting, and I’m sure that creep made the whole thing up as another ploy to keep us apart. Well, maybe it wasn’t made up. What do you mean? Word on the street is Saxon’s, maybe partnering with Gabby on a new fashion line.

Word on the street. Well, yeah, I hear things at Basic Black, that’s part of my job. Well, if that were true, Gabby would’ve told me about it, and I would’ve heard first.

I can’t speak to Gabby’s willingness to share information, but if I were to guess what’s going on here, it sounds like Lee is trying to get her interested in a new business opportunity. So she loses interest in his DEMIRA shares and by extension, You. No way that’s gonna happen. Gabby loves me and she wants nothing more than to be back together.

No, Wakely distract her by waving some shiny new business opportunity in front of her face. But if she gives in to her feelings for you, she could lose her mirror shacks. How do you know about that?

You wanna ride to the station? Sure. We can talk about what a bummer it is, being the older sibling. And you can tell me what you and Talia were talking about when I walked up. I mean, it’s none of my business. It’s just what? Hmm hmm. Oh, just the look on your face is when I came. Nevermind. Oh, you know, it, it’s Sean.

Uh, you know, we’ve been trading info on the case we have, so I should probably take this. You you go ahead. I’ll drive myself. Hunter.

So you never went to culinary school? No, um, actually I had a different focus, but baking is just something I know. Do you also know that you’re talking to a couple of criminal. You think you’ve won, don’t you? Oh honey, we know we have. Well, you are wrong. I am not giving up on making YouTube bitches pay for what you’ve done.

Look, I don’t know what your problem is, but you can’t just talk to them like that. They’re my problem. This one’s a murderer and this one covered it up. Your lawyer may have pulled a rabbit out of her. But you are not off the hook. You listen to me, Sloan Peterson, you have lost and you will keep on losing and losing.

So how about you’ll find something better to do with your time than trying to hurt me and my family trying to drag us a court to satisfy your sick need for revenge. When my daughter and I, we have done nothing wrong. Do you hear me? Maybe. Maybe I don’t need court to get my revenge. Ever thinking that,

so Stephan called and you didn’t think to tell me. You saw the notification before I had a chance. Uh, it was a very brief call. He asked for you and I said you were getting ready for a meeting. Needed to stay focused. Lee, I don’t need a secretary, nor do I need you answering my phone without my permission.

Well, I I, I’m sorry. I, I just, I wasn’t thinking, uh, why don’t you call him back now if you like. I mean, it might make us late for the meeting at Saxon’s, but. We can probably make up the time on the break. No, I don’t wanna be late and there’s no, we okay. It’s just me remember. Fine. Um, the only thing is they’re expecting me to, and I wouldn’t want them wondering why I didn’t show up.

That would be an unnecessary distraction, and I wouldn’t want to spoil your pitch before you even get to make it.

You’re driving.

Oh. Uh, Lee’s little sister, Wendy, she mentioned something about her morals clause in their, uh, marriage contract. Wow. Surprise Lee would share that information with her and that she would just impart that knowledge onto. Well, no one’s ever accused Wendy of discretion. Look, I’m sorry if I spoke out of tone.

I didn’t know that this clause was on a need to know basis. Either way, I, I, I don’t envy you, Stephan. It certainly is a very tricky situation. It is indeed. He’s watching us like a hawk waiting for me and Gabby to give into feelings for one another, and I, I can’t figure out a way.

Well, Stephan, maybe I can help you. How? Well, maybe, um, yeah, I can arrange for you and Gabby to meet privately. I mean, after all, Lee’s not watching.

It’s a very kind offer. What can I say? I’m, I’m a romantic at heart, and I just, I really want you and Gabby to be happy together, and since you two boys have made peace, I’m on your side as much as EJ is.

That’d be amazing. Thank you. Of course. But I, I’ll, uh, I’ll get to work and. I’ll let you know as soon as I come up with something. I’m very grateful, Nicole, and I know Gabby will be too.

Well done Oscar worthy. Now I was just following the plan. Now all we need is for Lee to catch Ste and Gabby and the act and it’s by by shares. Gabriela earned controlled D mirror. Let’s just hope Stefan makes it worth it.

Update written by Joseph

Paulina walks through the town square and greets Chanel at the Bakery. Paulina sees that Chanel is removing the “Help Wanted” sign from the bakery and starts talking about how she’s sorry she had to put her foot down but reminds Chanel that the court won’t let her hire anyone. Chanel then stops her and reveals that she already did hire someone.

Jada and her sister Talia have breakfast at the Brady Pub. Jada praises the muffins while Talia is unsure, feeling they could use brown sugar and caramel. Talia comments that she still can’t believe Jada gets to roll out of bed and have breakfast like this waiting downstairs. Jada tells Talia not to get too used to it, reminding her that now that she has a job, she will have to get her own place. Jada jokes that she doesn’t plan on sharing her bed with her little sister forever. Talia then questions why not, remarking that it’s not like she’s sharing it with anybody else.

Rafe goes to the DiMera Mansion. Stefan answers the door and questions why he’s making a house call. Rafe says he comes with documents and notes that he still thinks Stefan is making a mistake, but if he wants to drop the charges against Brady and Eric, then he will have to sign on the dotted line. Stefan confirms that he does and invites Rafe in. Stefan says it’s not like he enjoyed being kidnapped and worked over by a mad scientist, but he can’t complain about the end result. Rafe says he made that clear. Stefan questions why the police commissioner found it necessary to run this errand in person. Rafe admits he’s not just here to have him sign the documents as he’s also here about his sister, Gabi.

Li is at home on the phone, saying they won’t regret taking this meeting with his wife. Li praises Gabi as she comes out of her room and he greets her.

Eric and Sloan kiss in bed. Sloan calls it a very enjoyable morning so far. Eric gets an alert on his phone which he explains is for if there’s any job openings for a photographer. Eric notes that his nights have been filled thanks to her but he needs to fill his daytime hours.

Nicole and EJ kiss in bed which EJ calls a lovely way to wake up. EJ says he slept better than he has in a long time. Nicole jokes that not having a drug induced hangover probably helped. Nicole adds that maybe it also helped that he and Stefan finally sat down to hash everything out. EJ informs her that there’s a bit more to the story about that. Nicole asks him to fill her in. EJ confirms that they hashed things out, but that doesn’t mean everything is settled as it’s far from it. EJ reveals that Stefan may not know it, but he’s as committed as he ever was to taking Stefan down.

Nicole tells Eric to stop the alert and job search. Eric responds that he needs a job. Sloan says she gets that, but not just any job, noting that he’s incredibly talented and a wonderful photographer. Sloan suggests Eric should be his own boss and open up his own gallery.

Nicole tells EJ that she doesn’t understand. EJ says he said all the right things but he had his fingers crossed behind his back and he’s sure Stefan did too. EJ adds that Stefan still wants what he’s always wanted and that’s Li out of the way, Gabi in his life, and the two of them running DiMera which he is not going to allow to happen, so he has to stop Stefan and Gabi from teaming up to oust him. EJ declares that he will stop that by forming his own team, which he’s already done, with Li Shin.

Li finishes his call and asks Gabi how much she heard. Gabi says she heard his comments about her which Li calls all sincere. Li asks if Gabi wants the deal to go through with her fashion line. Gabi complains that she hadn’t even agreed to go to the store but he’s already setting it up. Li remarks that she seemed intrigued enough last night since she took all the paperwork to bed. Gabi says she was curious but that doesn’t mean she’s ready to make a deal. Li calls it just an initial meeting and assures no one is going to rush her in to anything. Li wants Gabi to have an outlet for her incredible creativity. Li adds that if he’s being too pushy, he can always call back and cancel the meeting.

Rafe assumes that Gabi living with Li bugs the hell out of Stefan as much as it does him. Stefan admits he hates it a lot. Rafe admits he doesn’t know all the details of their arrangement considering Gabi stopped confiding him since she knows how he feels about Li. Stefan asks how that compares to how he feels about him. Rafe states that Li makes Stefan look good, so he hopes Stefan hasn’t given up on getting Gabi away from Li. Stefan assures that he’s never giving up on that. Rafe advises Stefan to be careful since Li already tried to pull the plug on him once and he doesn’t like competition. Stefan responds that he is no competition because he’s going to blow that son of a bitch out of the water.

Eric questions Sloan thinking he should open a gallery. Sloan informs him that while she was having trouble sleeping last night, she went through his portfolio for an hour and sees that he would have no trouble filling a gallery’s walls, especially with the photos he took in Africa. Eric insists that he needs a job. Sloan thinks he needs to take charge of his career. Eric appreciates her support, but reminds her that it takes money to buy the supplies and the space for a gallery, so he questions how he’s supposed to find that. Sloan responds that she has the perfect place and it’s called Sweet Bits Bakery.

Chanel informs Paulina that she hired Talia and she’s perfect for Sweet Bits. Paulina complains that Chanel is forgetting that they can’t start throwing money around since every cent they spend is being watched by the court. Chanel can’t believe Sloan got the judge to sign off on a plan like this. Chanel asks if Belle is working on getting the freeze on their accounts reversed. Paulina assures that Belle is trying and hoping to get the case dismissed, but they have to be realistic. Chanel argues that she can’t run a bakery without any help, so she needs to lock Talia down before she loses her. Chanel adds that Talia worked at one of the most successful bakeries in New York City, so she has to offer her a competitive salary or someone else is going to snap her up in no time. Paulina guesses that she needs to win the lottery then.

Jada questions Talia giving her grief about her love life. Talia says she was just joking and says she’s too sensitive. Talia points out that she’s not with anyone either and calls them independent women who do just fine on their own. Jada agrees and toasts to them both flying solo. Talia then asks Jada how long it’s been since she was not flying solo. Jada thought they were dropping the subject. Talia accepts that it’s none of her business. Jada decides she has nothing to hide and informs Talia that she broke up with someone a few months ago. Talia calls that a long time compared to her break up being pretty recent. Jada assures that she’s fine. Talia asks if there’s at least someone new on the horizon. Rafe then enters the Pub.

EJ explains to Nicole that after he and Stefan got honest with each other, he invited Li over to tell him that he’s willing to join forces, so now Li knows he fully supports him getting back with Gabi and is willing to do whatever it takes to help make that happen. Nicole asks what he told Li happened between he and Stefan. EJ assures he told him nothing that he can use against him and Li only knows what he wants him to hear. EJ adds that Li only heard what he wanted to hear anyway and says he’s cooked up a wonderful distraction for Gabi that she might just fall for.

Gabi tells Li not to cancel the meeting since it won’t look good to bail now. Gabi agrees to go and see what happens. Li encourages that she will impress the hell out of everyone and they’ll all forget about Gabi Chic and will be blown away by her new designs. Gabi says he can dial down the flattery because she knows how good she is. Gabi decides she will go get ready for the meeting. Li says he will too and then he’ll make her a breakfast to remember.

EJ explains to Nicole that Gabi will have her new fashion line in department stores, so while Stefan will be sneaking around trying to steal a few moments with Gabi, she will be sleeping just a few feet from the man who will have revived the artistic side of her career. Nicole points out that Gabi is in love with Stefan and she mourned him for years, so she won’t be able to stay away from him. EJ says that’s where things get interesting as he informs Nicole of the contract that Gabi must stay in the marriage for six months to get Li’s DiMera shares, but only if she remains faithful. EJ feels he could take advantage of that. Nicole worries that EJ is playing a dangerous game and asks what if Stefan finds out what he’s doing behind his back. EJ responds that he likes taking risks and calls that the fun in life. Nicole feels it depends on the risk. EJ jokes that getting involved with someone romantically is a risk, since one could get their heart broken, but it’s still definitely fun which Nicole agrees with. Nicole says it’s definitely worth the risk as they kiss.

Stefan looks at a photo of Gabi on his phone and then goes to her number.

Li starts getting dressed in front of Gabi, so she questions what the hell he’s doing. Li reminds her that the living room is his bedroom, unless she wants to change their sleeping arrangements and let him in to her bedroom. Gabi says nice try and decides to go get ready herself. Gabi tells Li what she wants for breakfast as she heads to her bedroom. Gabi left her phone behind as Stefan calls. Li answers the phone. Stefan questions what the hell he is doing answering Gabi’s phone.

Eric questions Sloan telling him that Sweet Bits is going out of business. Sloan says that Paulina and Chanel might not know it yet, but once she wins her case, that space will belong to her. She asks what better use for it than Eric’s gallery. Eric asks if she’s sure about this being a good idea. Sloan gets that he doesn’t want to take business away from Chanel, but says that’s her job and she’s really looking forward to doing it. Sloan says that Eric will just benefit and with the cash she wins from the case, she could even be an investor too. Sloan encourages Eric to say yes as they kiss until her phone rings. Sloan answers the call and is shocked by what she hears.

Chanel complains to Paulina that she hates this never ending war with Sloan. Paulina says she does too but it is war, so they have to think strategically. Paulina worries that if Chanel hires Talia, it will look like she’s trying to put one over on the court and the judge will penalize her, then Sloan wins. Paulina gets a call from Belle, who tells her some surprising news. Chanel questions what she said. Paulina responds that she doesn’t know what they are going to do with all this free time as she announces that Belle got the case thrown out. Chanel can’t believe it as Paulina tells her that their longshot came through. Paulina declares that they are free of that witch at last as they hug.

Rafe greets Jada and Talia. Rafe asks if Talia is enjoying her time in Salem so far. Talia jokes that she was until about 20 minutes ago when Jada said she was cramping her style and needed to move out. Jada tells Rafe to ignore her. Rafe aks what they were talking about when he walked in as it seemed kind of intense. Talia says it’s funny he asks but Jada interrupts and reminds her that she has to get to work. Talia talks about having to get used to early morning shifts now that she’s going to be a baker. Jada questions Talia working at a bakery. Talia confirms her job is at Sweet Bits in the town square and asks if she knows it. Rafe asks what’s wrong with that and says they have the best donuts in town. Jada questions what is going on and why Talia would work as a baker. Talia asks what’s wrong with bakers. Jada says nothing but points out that is not Talia’s chosen field. Rafe questions what he’s missing. Jada informs him that Talia is not a baker and reveals that she’s a doctor! Rafe is surprised as Talia confirms she has a medical degree. Jada points out that she graduated from Stanford in the top five percent of her class. Jada questions how working as a baker is using any of her talents. Talia argues that she’s a very talented baker. Jada says when Talia got a job, she assumed it was at the hospital and that her dream was always to follow their dad’s footsteps. Talia clarifies that it was only their dad’s dream for her to follow him in to medicine but that doesn’t make it her dream. Jada points out that she worked so hard and questions who walks away from a career like that. Talia says she does and that she doesn’t want to be late, so she says bye to Rafe and Jada as she then exits the Pub. Jada wonders if Chanel knows how overqualified her new baker is.

Chanel tells Paulina that this means she can hire Talia and doesn’t have to fire her which Paulina encourages. Chanel says they owe Belle big time. Paulina agrees and exclaims that Belle left Sloan in the dust. Paulina wonders how Sloan is taking it.

Sloan begins throwing things in her apartment. Eric gets up and tries to encourage her that it’s going to be okay. Sloan complains that everything relied on that lawsuit and it’s over. Sloan cries that Paulina and Chanel are murderers and they’ve won again. Eric reminds her that it was just a civil case so no one was going to prison and she has money. Sloan shouts that it was never about money as they tore her family apart and they just keep getting away with it. Sloan screams that everybody loves Paulina and Chanel except her and refuses to forget about her mother being pushed off a roof to her death as she breaks down crying. Eric tells her that he’s sorry and assures that he’s on her side. Sloan cries that this lawsuit was her last shot at justice for her mom as Eric hugs her.

Li asks Stefan if he can help him. Stefan tells him to give Gabi her phone back. Li says he’s afraid that his wife is a little busy and doesn’t have time for chit chat as she’s getting dressed for a very important meeting which Stefan questions. Li is sure Gabi will tell him if she thinks it’s any of his business, but it’s not his place. Stefan warns him that the clock is ticking on his six months while Li warns that he knows what will happen if Stefan keeps calling or if he somehow tempts Gabi in to some secret rendezvous. Stefan asks if the thought of that scares him to death. Li says it should scare Gabi since if she fails to resist him, she’ll lose all those DiMera shares and have Stefan to thank for it because he couldn’t keep it in his pants. Li tells Stefan to do himself and Gabi a favor and stay away from her as he then hangs up on him. Stefan throws his phone out of the room in frustration as EJ and Nicole enter. EJ asks Stefan if there’s a problem.

Paulina calls Belle back and thanks her for all of her hard work, saying she doesn’t know how much this means to her and Chanel and that they are eternally grateful. Paulina hangs up as Chanel begins revising the budget for Sweet Bits and says she can bring back some popular items and she’ll actually be able to pay her new employee. Talia then walks up and says she didn’t know that was an issue but she’s glad she will be able to. Chanel greets Talia and introduces her to Paulina. Paulina notes Talia’s last name of Hunter and asks if she has any relation to Jada. Talia confirms that is her sister and asks if she knows her. Paulina says no but she knows of her because her partner arrested her once.

Jada tells Rafe that she doesn’t get it since Talia spent all those years in medical school just to become a baker. Rafe suggests she’s changing her life and following her dream while Jada argues that Talia’s dream was to become a doctor which she pursued with a vengeance. Jada knows trying to set Talia straight would be a waste of breath. Rafe relates to that with trying to advise his siblings over the years. They agree that they love their younger siblings and they will never stop trying to rescue them from themselves.

Gabi gets ready to go then questions why Li is dressed up and if he thought he was going with her. Li points out that he was the go-between that set this up. Gabi argues that it’s her pitch and she doesn’t need help with that. Li confirms they are expecting both of them. Gabi starts to say she can just tell them something but then she sees on her phone that Stefan called which she questions.

Stefan informs EJ and Nicole that his problem is named Li Shin, who just told him that Gabi is too busy to talk because she’s headed to some important business meeting. Stefan says he’s sure Li made the whole thing up as another ploy to keep them apart. Nicole suggests maybe it wasn’t made up since word on the street is Gabi may be partnering with stores for a new fashion line, noting that she hears things at Basic Black. Stefan argues that if that were true, Gabi would have told him about it and he would’ve heard first. EJ says he can’t speak to Gabi’s willingness to share information, but it sounds like Li is trying to get Gabi interested in a new business venture so that she loses interest in his DiMera shares and by extension, Stefan. Stefan says there’s no way that’s going to happen since Gabi loves him and she wants nothing more than to be back together. Stefan declares that there’s no way Li can distract her by shining some business opportunity in her face. EJ points out that if Gabi gives in to her feelings for Stefan, she could lose her DiMera shares. Stefan then questions how he knows about that.

Rafe offers Jada a ride to the police station which she accepts. Rafe brings up wondering what Jada and Talia were talking about when he walked in, noting the look on their faces when he came in. Jada then gets a call from Shawn and says they’ve been trading information on a case so Rafe can go ahead to the station as she answers the call.

Talia tells Paulina and Chanel that she never went to culinary school as she had a different focus, but baking is just something she knows. Sloan interrupts and asks if Talia also knows that she’s talking to a couple of criminals. Sloan guesses they think they’ve won. Paulina says they know they have. Sloan tells her that she’s wrong and that she hasn’t given up on making them pay. Talia tells Sloan that she doesn’t know what her problem is, but she can’t just talk to them like that. Sloan responds that they are her problem. Sloan calls Chanel a murderer and says Paulina covered it up. Sloan remarks that her lawyer may have pulled a rabbit out of the hat but she hasn’t won. Paulina tells Sloan that she has lost and will keep losing, so she suggests finding something better to do with her time than hurting her and her family. Paulina argues that she and Chanel have done nothing wrong. Sloan decides maybe she doesn’t need court to get her revenge and asks if they ever thought of that as she walks off.

Gabi questions Li not telling her that Stefan called. Li says she saw the notification before he had the chance. Li adds that it was a very brief conversation as Stefan asked for her but he told him that she was busy preparing for the meeting. Gabi complains that she doesn’t need a secretary or Li answering her phone without her permission. Li apologizes and says he wasn’t thinking. Li suggests she call Stefan back now if she’d like. Li notes that it might make them late for the meeting but they could probably make up the time. Gabi says she doesn’t want to be late and reminds him that it’s only her. Li points out that they are expecting him too, so he doesn’t want them wondering why he didn’t show up as that would be an unnecessary distraction. Li says he wouldn’t want to spoil her pitch before she even gets to make it. Gabi tells Li that he’s driving. Li smiles and follows her out.

Eric goes through some of his pictures and come across a photo of Nicole.

EJ claims to Stefan that Wendy mentioned the morals clause in their contract. Stefan is surprised that Li would confide that to Wendy and that Wendy would just share it with him. Nicole jokes that no one ever accused Wendy of discretion. EJ apologizes if he spoke out of turn and says he didn’t know the clause was on a need to know basis. EJ states that he doesn’t envy him as it certainly is a very tricky situation. Stefan complains that Li is watching them like a hawk, waiting for he and Gabi to give in to their feelings for each other and he can’t figure out a way around it. Nicole suggests maybe she could help by arranging for he and Gabi to meet privately, since Li’s not watching her. Stefan calls that a very kind offer. Nicole says she’s a romantic at heart and she really wants Stefan and Gabi to be happy together. Nicole adds that since Stefan and EJ have made peace, she’s on Stefan’s side as much as EJ is. Stefan agrees that would be amazing and thanks her. Nicole says she’ll get to work and let him know when she’s come up with something. Stefan tells her that he’s very grateful and he knows Gabi will be too. Nicole and EJ then exit the room. EJ praises Nicole, who says she was just following the plan. EJ declares that now they just need Li to catch them in the act and it’s bye bye to Gabi’s shares and control of DiMera. EJ hopes that Stefan makes it worth it.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

If it wasn’t Stefano, then who was the last person in that chamber? I never said it wasn’t Stefano, but you strongly implied it, and you said that you kept that person alive for over a decade and impressed his feet even for you. You are impressed. Well, we are women of science. Of course we are. Yeah. And I would think that you would be dying to tell people about your achievement.

So am might not share it with us. I mean, who are we going to tell you raise a good point. I suppose I wouldn’t her to brag a little about one of my great successes.

There’s no sense in drawing this out any longer. You might as well go ahead and kill her. No, no, no. You don’t wanna do that Megan. Call him off. Kate, you destroy the serum, but you see you to me now. I’ll do what you want. Just give me a second chance. No, Bo No. You know you don’t want to do it. Oh, I think he.

Actually, she’s right. Thank you. Oh, what are you doing? This could get messy. You don’t want blood all over the lab, do you? Ah, good point. How about to take this outside? Great idea. Kill her outside and then leave her to rot. Hmm.

Thank you so much, Andrew. I’ll be in touch.

The Isa granted visiting privileges for Harris. Michaels great. Let’s go. No, no, no. Hold on. You too. Should hit back to Salem. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You don’t want us to come along. John, this is something I need to do in my own.

I have brought people back from the dead, of course, but in this case, I think you will be awestruck as well as jubilant. When I tell you that’s a person in question is, look what we have here. I do hope I’m not interrupting anything. No, it’s fine. And just asking me questions about my new serum. Rolf was just telling us that you were planning to use it on Kate, like she’s some kind of Guinea pig.

Where is she? What have you done with her? Well, you don’t need to worry about those tests anymore. Kate refused to cooperate, so she’s gonna suffer a different trait now.

Okay. Megan’s gone. You know, you don’t have to follow her orders. You can, you can say that I got away, or the, the gun jams. I know you don’t wanna do this.

Move

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Ah, Katie, will I ever hear from you again? What will it take to make you reach out?

Do I have to plot another murder?

Maybe I’m crazy. I just imagined it all.

Okay. That’s good. That’s good. I think this is a perfect place for you to die. Okay. Look, I, I, I don’t know what Megan stands to you. Oh, no, not about her. Okay, well that’s good because she’s crazy and you need to get the hell away from her bow. Elena, Kayla and I, we all know you. This is not you. So me the real blow.

See a sweetheart of a guy most of the time, but you are definitely not a stone cold assassin. Okay? Do you know how many people are going to beat overwhelmed by the fact that you’re so alive? You need to think about. Okay. Because you loved her, why would she think if she saw you like this?

Ms. Brady, welcome to Isa PSYOPs. Thank you, agent Rose and uh, Ms. We’re so honored to have you visit us. Agent Donovan called and said you were coming, but not to fango out. You and your late husband are kind of legends around here. That’s very flattering. Thank you. My condolence is on his death. Thank you.

You must still miss him every day. Commander Michaels is in here. Yes, right inside. May I please see? Of course.

We’re never getting out of this door. Now I wanna tell Megan comes back for us. What do you think she’s planning now? I mean, saying that Kate is going to suffer a different kind of fate. I, after all she’s been through, um, she did find a cure for the virus. She put us into a cryogenic state until she decides to wake us up, but she wanted to keep us alive for some reason.

Remember Ralph said that she was planning on using the serum on Kate. I don’t know. I think Megan’s new plan sounds ominous at best. Yeah. Do you think I’m overreacting? No, I don’t. I think we’re in a world of trouble here.

Do you think it might have been shortsighted for you to order bull to kill our test subject? How so? You can make a new serum, right? Yes, but it’ll take time. Fine. And we still have two women that we can test it on. Megan, don’t question me Wolf. Get to work very well

and no more procrastinating. It’s been months since Bo and I were reunited. We all the respect, you’ve already waited 40 years. And I don’t want to wait any longer than I have to.

Oh my God, it works. Bone. You’re conscious.

It’s me, Megan. Oh, what’s darling? I knew you would come back.

Can you say something, please?

What’s hope?

I literally brought that man back to life and all he could think about was her. Yes, you gave me quite an earful about it at the time. Why do you have luck? Megan, let me outta here. I have to fly my wife. Come on. I gotta find hope. Megan,

Ralph. Thank God. Last thing I remember I was in the park. I was dying in hopes. I have to get to her. As you can hear this must stop is you’ve taken me away from a very important project your brother Stephan did. I don’t care about that. Megan, I need you to make this stop. I cured more of his brain tumor.

And I need you to cure him of Hope Brady,

I did as you asked. Yes, but it didn’t turn out as I expected.

Why would I care what hope thinks? Because she’s your wife. Uh, correct me if I’m wrong, but ex-wife got a divorce. Okay, well, there’s the mother of another one of your exes whose heart she broke. I know all too well that hope was the one great love of your life and that you never got over it. Isn’t that true?

Oh, what a beautiful story. Okay. Time to die. Okay. Is at least, uh, take this. Take my wedding. So you can return it to Roman.

Sorry man. I know you’re closed. Not to you guys. Come on.

Right. What are you, uh, doing back to her? What’s going on? Did you find Megan? Well, not exactly bud. We got an. What’s going on? Your nephew, Andrew did us a real solid, let us access ISA records. So we found out where Megan went after she left Ruckus. We got there. It was too late. She’d already cleared out. So that was the end the line.

Maybe not. We went into Hope. Oh, yep. What was she doing? Same thing we were doing, I suppose. She has an idea that Harris Michaels might know something that could lead us to Megan. Well, if he does that, bastard’s never gonna tell. Maybe, maybe not. You see, when he was in Montreal, he indicated to hope that he thinks maybe he.

Was brainwashed by Megan, so if she used the same techniques on him that she used on us, he could be reachable. Kayla got through to me. Marla and Paul were able to reach John help figures. She gets a face-to-face with Michaels. She might have a breakthrough there also, but Harris never really loved hope, did he?

I guess we’ll see about that.

You got him locked down pretty tight with good reason. Commander Michaels has been quite uncooperative. I can’t say that surprises me. Advised arrangement after he sent the third agent to the hospital. Thank you. One of our top psychoanalysts Donovan’s wife. Has met with him several times, but he’s been highly resistant to treatment.

Yes. So I see. I’d like you to let me in there with him alone. Yes, Erin. It’s some privacy that would be inadvisable. As I said, he’s very dangerous. Yes, I understand an agent Rose, but I need to look him straight in the eye for this to. I can call Shane if you’d like. It won’t be necessary. I trust you. Thank you.

Here’s your panic button.

We’ll be right outside if you. Thank you agent.

Hello, hope.

It’s been a long time.

I had such high hopes at first.

What? What is happen? What, bro? What are you doing to me? Just relax. Bob. You’ve been through a little procedure. That’s all procedure. What kind of procedure on your brain just need to make sure that it’s worked?

How does that make you.

Ah, excellent. As I said, , the procedure worked exactly as intended. Yes. He no longer wanted hope, and he was loyal to me. He did everything I asked him to. But the spark between us, the the spark was gone.

What’s with the yearbook? Well, it’s our yearbook though. Don’t you remember? We are a voted best couple. Yeah, so well, we could be that happy again, . That was a long time ago, but the feelings can come back. I know they can.

He was supposed to love me. I warned you that a procedure could not create romantic feelings out of nothing. They’re not nothing. They’re just. Dormant. Now, this serum, this serum had better work as you promised when Megan’s said that Kate was going to suffer a different kind of fate. Now, do you think that she was just trying to scare us to get us to behave?

I mean, why would she kill Kate after she had gone through so much trouble to revive her? Well, she wouldn. And even if that were her intention, I, Katie was just, she’s resourceful and, and she’s able to talk her way out of any dire situation. I know she will. Here again, as I recall, you and Roman were over a long time ago.

Well, we got back together again recently and actually we got. On my deathbed, although it was the first time, you know, because I got sick and then I recovered and then I relapsed, and then apparently I died. And yet here I am. Which is pretty miraculous. Wouldn’t you say ? No, no. Ralph made it happen. Have Megan’s request.

Oh, well Ralph makes a lot of things happen, doesn’t he? Did you see I’m a survivor? You’re a survivor. Roman’s a survivor. Do you remember, do you remember saying goodbye to him on that beach when you thought he was dead? Because Roman loves me. If you kill his wife, he’s gonna be devastated. Is that what you want?

So you only think that hope can get through this Harris, my close guy. I mean, he might not know anything even if, uh, she gets in to talk and after the way he got the upper hand on both of you. Oh, hey, we were on Bush, man. Come on. That’s right. Hey, we’ve been prepared on that. Hey, relax. Okay. I’m not questioning your skills.

All right. I’m just worried about hope. The point is he is in ISA custody. It’s a highly controlled situation. We wanted to go with. , but she insisted she had to do this on her own and you know how damn headstrong she can be. Yeah. She almost got herself killed last time she got involved with this guy. I hope she’s being safe this time.

What are you doing here? Why would you even want to talk to me after everything I did to you and your family?

The last time we saw each other in Montreal, you said you thought Megan had done something to you, brainwash. You said that you wanted help. We got you that help Harris, but I’m confused because ever since then you have fought it every step of the way. Why is that? I was lying. I said whatever it took to mitigate that.

Punish. No, no, no. I don’t. I don’t believe you. If they were two, you’d still be keeping up with that. No, I think that you are still fully under a million’s control and why? It’s the reason why you wouldn’t open up to Kimberly, and that’s why I only see the real you when we’re alone. Harris, look at me, Harris.

I came all this way today.

Remind you of what we had. There was nothing between us. We had was a card. I was just playing you to get to the prisons just like you were playing me. No, it’s not true. Not in the beginning. I wasn’t. Here is something, something grew between us. Before I realized that you were after the prison, you said it yourself.

It’s the reason you couldn’t pull the trigger. When Megan had urged you to kill me, I said what you wanted to hear. Yeah, yeah, I know. To communicate your punishment. I heard you.

All right

then. Tell me this. Why? Why did Megan have to hire Thomas Banks? Put him up in the rafters to kill me? You could’ve killed me. You could’ve done it from two feet away. It’s a backup plan. Why am I still alive, Harris?

Because I failed. No,

because you succeeded. You succeeded. Aris, you stopped.

I am alive because of you.

You felt something for me.

You still do. It’s real. It is.

I.

What about you?

Do you feel something for me too?

Do you don’t hope is risking her life? Is it worth it, Roman? Megan’s out there somewhere behaving like a true Demir Stephanie’s daughter through and through who knows what she could be planning right now to hurt even more people we love. She’s still a threat. We need to stop her. Whatever it takes. As you recall, I made no promises, but if it works, This serum will allow you and Bo to go back again and start at the beginning.

It’s about time my flight was delayed from Jakarta and frankly, I’m not even sure why you summit me. I thought my work was done. Not quite. Although Bo has forgotten his feelings for hope, then what’s the problem? The problem is, That the spark between us, between bow and I is gone. And how do you suppose I can change that?

What are you asking me to do? I read an article in the Salem Spectator the other day about an orchid that seems to have magical healing properties and or could you grew in your lab before it disappeared? And what does that have to do with. I’m just wondering if you might be able to use it to help bow and me to turn back time.

Ah, you want to reverse the aging process? Oh, and I lost so much. And you think the orca could be your own personal fountain of youth? Almost as good as a time. Is it possible? I know you told the police that it’s gone, but I wonder if you might not know where I can get my hands on it. Actually, I do.

When we’re young, again, like when we first met, I know he’ll love. Instead of just following my orders like a loyal soldier, you know, he has never once questioned what I’ve asked him to do or why.

No one knew he was in Salem. They all still think he’s dead and they’ll never know otherwise. Come on, we’re Homan thinks you’re dead. I pull this trigger. We’ll make a damn bit of difference to him. I know, because eventually he will find out what you. I guess the truth always comes out, doesn’t it? Both. I don’t really care if the truth comes out.

I don’t care about Roman. You know? I don’t believe that. I really don’t. I mean, I think that you’re lying to yourself because I think everything that I’ve said to you deep down has struck a chord with the real vore who is devoted to his family, who adores his sisters, Kimberly and Kayla and his brother Roman, and his children and his grand children.

Sean, Douglas, Sierra, Zach, Claire, Chelsea. I mean, you could forget about Chelsea, your daughter. With my Billy. I mean, I can see you trying to deny that you have feelings for hope, even for Roman, because certainly those relationships are fraught. They, they’re complicated. There’s not a baggage there. But the parents love for their child.

That is pure, that is unshakable, even in the worst of circumstances. So you see Chelsea is my flesh and blood. Blood. You wanna see blood? I’ll show you blood. Listen to me. You are not going to break Chelsea’s heart by killing her grandmother. You and I. That you are not going to pull that trigger. You know that I will only to shut you up.

So you were together for a whole year. When you kissed me, I felt something that wasn’t just part of the game.

Come on hope. I want the. Okay. The truth,

as much as I wanted to stay disconnected, there were moments I thought something,

okay, I admitted it. I can, I can you Can you admit?

Or maybe, um,

Me just think about what Megan was willing to do to get revenge on hope. Yeah, on a pure spine. Well, just because Bo lived another woman, it’s not like she could have ’em anyway. Now. and if she has succeeded in getting hope out of the way. Yeah, I still can’t believe it. I mean, Megan Hathaway is still alive and our wives are damnit.

You know what guys? I mean, sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy. I mean, I, I tell people, you know that Kate is talking to me from the great beyond

through an.

So have you picked up on anything from her lately? Now she’s gone silent and that’s what makes me wonder. I mean, did I. Did I imagine that Paulina herd of two?

I saw Kayla. She came to me. John, what about you? What about you? Did anything like that happen to you? Did you ever hear from Martin Le?

I haven’t heard anything at all from Doc. I thought appealing to to Ralph’s ego might get us somewhere. It was getting us somewhere. I’m sure that he was about to tell us who was in that fourth chamber when Megan walked in. Not that it even matters now. But it might because if somebody had been in there and they got away, maybe if they’re friendly, they was able to come back, they could help us escape.

You don’t think My relationship with Chelsea was complicated. She’s responsible for the death of one of my kids. I know, and you got past that because of your love hurt. Both, you know, Chelsea and Max London now because they’re, they’re so happy. Bella and Shawn are happy. Sierra and Sierra and Banner sailing around the world just like you would hope to, but you know who’s not happy?

Hope hope’s miserable because she, because she misses. And you could, you could fix that. You have another chance. I, there’s no fixing that. It was over a decade ago. Let’s see. So you’re just, what? You’re just meeting’s lap dog now. So some may think it’s selfish of me to keep them all to myself, but I brought him back to life.

And I’ve loved him faithfully all these years. , which is more than anyone else can say, I deserve this. I deserve him.

Dr. Marlena, Evan. Dead virus claims. Third victim. I had no idea that you get sick again, sorry ladies,

but I needed this beauty for myself.

Oh, hey, what are you doing?

What are these women doing here? Oh, they’re here for us though. You see, with their help, you and I are gonna get back all the time that we lost and finally live halfway ever after.

When you got here a few weeks ago, Ralph, I gave you this facility and the plant continues to thrive. You can make limitless amounts of the serum. Quantity is not the issue. Assuming every single is just planned. When the testing process is complete and we are able to administer it, foe and I will be young again and we can start all over from the.

This time he’ll stay and he’ll love me forever and ever and hope will go off of some other poor stop.

Do not try to play me again.

You know, I can stamp your neck in an instant. You could, but you won’t. You can’t. Any more than he could bring yourself to pull the trigger. God, I went into yours.

You’re making sweet just like I was. You still are. Do you want that woman to get away with everything she’s done?

Like you give it down what happens to me? I do.

Course I Care. Harris, we’re not our only victims.

She kill my sister-in-law, Kayla and her brother, Roman’s wife, Kate Roberts, and hi. John Black’s wife. She’s, she’s killed a lot of people I love and care her about greatly.

Why should that matter to me? Because you were so much more than a trained assassin. You are a Navy hero. Before Megan got ahold of you, you were a good man. You were an honorable man, a good and honorable. You forget the fact that I killed two men. That wasn’t you. That wasn’t you. Doesn’t change the fact that that was the brainwashing Harris, you have the chance, the opportunity to get your life back.

To get back what’s real.

Don’t you want that? I wanna help you. Let me, let me help you and then you can help me make sure that Megan never hurts anyone ever again.

I, them, I don’t, I don’t care what Megan did,

didn’t do it for me. Harris,

do it from me.

Good coffee man. We’ll let you know if we hear anything from Hope. Hang here to Roman. Yes, you too.

Damn. A hell of a wind man. Looks like uh, we’re in for storms. Yeah, that’s what they say. Okay. You guys be careful out there. Yeah. All right.

You okay? Oh yeah. Quiet time’s the hardest, I guess. I keep trying to reach out somehow to John and my family. Have to know how much I love them. Oh, I end up picturing in there the pain. Hello. I remember how I breathed for Steve when I thought I’d lost him, went on for years. And to think about our families going through that, well motivate us to get out of here.

That’s what it’s

don’t.

Ms. Brady, is everything all right? Yes, everything is. Perfect. In fact, manager Michaels has agreed to another session with Dr. Brady Donovan and I have a feeling that, uh, he’s gonna be a lot more cooperative this time around.

No, I mean, nobody’s lap dog really. That’s not what it. Like to me, I mean, this is Megan’s idea. This was in your idea. Take her outside and, and, and kill her. Now, I don’t know. It, to me, you just look like a glorified Aaron boy, I pray you’re right. You know as well as anybody that we have to keep our faith right now.

We are going to get out of here. The two of us and Kate, so you think this is the best time to insult me? , I, I, I don’t know. I. It’s just that I’m surprised. I’m really surprised. I wouldn’t think that you would fall in with a two bit wannabe Ste like, Megan, stop, stop, stop. Or what? I mean, you’re gonna shoot me because that’s what Megan expects you to do.

I, I don’t know. I don’t understand where is the boat that, that I knew that was a rebel that would’ve come in here and would’ve blown off this whole lap and taken off on his motorcycle without ever bothering to look back at the flames. I mean, this is not an action movie. This is real life, my life. And yours for the next few seconds anyway.

Fine. That’s fine. I, I just never expected to see you go out this way. I mean, how many times did you take down Megan’s old man I, that though Brady, I did not follow orders, did hated anyone to tell him what to do. That Bo. Right now we think that you’re disgusting that you’re doing something just because someone ordered you to do it.

Someone, my, the likes of Megan’s Hathaway. How about Chris? I want you dead. Do you? Do you really? Because if you do, Pull that trigger. Shoot me.

Did you hear that the deed is done. I heard now you need to get back to work and make some more of that serum so we can test her Marlena and. And if it works, then it had better control. And I will be young and in love, and we will finally have our happily ever after. Ah, it’s done. I know. I heard the gunshot.

I’m very proud of you though. Okay, now look, I’ve got something else that I need for you. I don’t give a damn what you need. I don’t take orders from you, lady. It’s over.

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

Kayla asks Dr. Rolf who was in the cryogenic chamber if it wasn’t Stefano. Rolf responds that he never said it wasn’t Stefano. Kayla brings up that he said he kept this person alive for a decade. Marlena and Kayla pretend to be impressed and encourage Dr. Rolf to share his achievement. He admits there might not be harm in bragging about one of his greatest successes.

Megan declares there’s no point in dragging this out any further and instructs Bo to go ahead and kill Kate. Kate tells Bo that he doesn’t want to do that and tells Megan to call him off. Megan points out that Kate destroyed the serum so she has no use to her at all. Kate asks for a second chance and pleads with Bo. Megan thinks Bo does want to do it but Bo says that Kate is right. Megan questions what he’s doing. Bo points out that it could get messy and she wouldn’t want blood all over the lab. Bo suggests taking this outside which Megan calls a great idea. Megan instructs Bo to kill Kate outside and to then leave her to rot.

Hope finishes her call with Andrew, thanking him and says she’ll be in touch. Hope hangs up and informs John and Steve that ISA granted visiting access to Harris Michaels. Steve wants to go but Hope says they should go back to Salem. John questions her not wanting to come with her. Hope calls this something that she needs to do on her own. Hope looks up Harris Michaels on her tablet.

Dr. Rolf says he has brought people back from the dead, but in this case, they would be awestruck and jubilant when he tells them who it was. Megan interrupts. Dr. Rolf says they were just asking questions about his new serum. Kayla and Marlena question Megan about Kate. Megan informs them that Kate refused to cooperate so she is going to suffer a different fate now.

Kate tells Bo that Megan is gone now so he doesn’t have to follow her orders anymore. Kate argues that they can say she got away or that the gun jammed because he doesn’t want to do this. Bo keeps his gun aimed at her and walks her out of the lab.

Hours later, Roman is at the Brady Pub with Kate’s urn, wondering if he will ever hear from Kate again and what it will take to make he reach out. Roman questions if he has to plot another murder. Roman decides maybe he’s crazy and just imagined it all. Roman then closes the Pub for the night.

Bo walks Kate outside and declares this is a perfect place for her to die. Kate doesn’t know what Megan did to him and calls her crazy, saying he needs to get away from her. Kate says she, Marlena, and Kayla all know that this is not Bo. Kate argues that Bo is not a stone cold assassin. Kate tells Bo of how many people will be overwhelmed by the fact that he’s still alive. Kate urges him to think about Hope and asks what Hope would think if she saw him like this.

At an ISA Facility in Frederick, Maryland, Hope meets Agent Rose. She tells Hope that they are honored and notes that Hope and Bo are legends around here which Hope calls flattering. Rose gives her condolences on Bo’s death and says Hope must still miss him. Hope confirms that she does every day and then asks to be taken to see Harris Michaels which they then go to do.

Kayla complains that she and Marlena are never getting out now. Kayla wonders what Megan is planning now by saying Kate is going to suffer a different kind of fate. Marlena talks about Megan finding a cure for the virus and putting them in a cryogenic state. Kayla wonders why Megan wanted to keep them alive. Kayla worries that Megan’s new plan sounds ominous at best. Marlena agrees that they are in a world of trouble here.

Megan brings Dr. Rolf back to the lab. Dr. Rolf thinks it was short sighted for her to order Bo to kill their test subject. Megan orders him to make a new serum which Dr. Rolf says will take some time. Megan points out that they still have two women they can test it on and tells him not to question her. Megan orders Dr. Rolf to get to work and not procrastinate. Dr. Rolf points out that she’s already waited 40 years to be with Bo. Megan responds that she doesn’t want to wait any longer than she has to. Megan flashes back to last July, when Bo first regained consciousness inside of the cryogenic chamber and his first words were asking “where’s Hope?” Megan then complains about how she literally brought Bo back to life and all he could think about was Hope. Dr. Rolf remembers Megan giving him quite an earful about it at the time as they flash back to Bo wanting to escape to find Hope and Megan ordering Dr. Rolf to cure Bo of Hope. Dr. Rolf states that he did as Megan asked. Megan admits that it didn’t turn out as she expected.

Bo asks Kate why he would care what Hope thinks. Kate states that Hope is his wife. Bo recalls that they were divorced. Kate insists that Hope was the one great love of Bo’s life and that he never got over it. Bo mocks that and says it’s time to die. Kate asks Bo to take her wedding ring so he can return it to Roman.

John and Steve join Roman at the Brady Pub. Roman questions what they are doing back so early, what’s going on, and if they found Megan. They say not exactly but they have a lead. They explain that Andrew got them ISA access and they were able to track where Megan went to but they were too late and she was already gone. John then reveals they ran in to Hope, who was also looking for Megan, and she has an idea that Harris Michaels might be able to tell them something about where Megan is. Roman feels if Harris knows anything, he’ll never tell. John reveals that Harris told Hope that he thought maybe he was brainwashed by Megan too, so maybe Hope could get through to him. Roman questions if Harris ever really loved Hope. Steve guesses they will see about that.

Hope comments on Harris being locked down pretty tight. Agent Rose informs Hope that Harris has been quite uncooperative and sent agents to the hospital while he’s been highly resistant to treatment. Hope wants to be let in to the room alone with Harris because she needs some privacy. Rose warns that Harris is very dangerous. Hope insists that she needs to look him straight in the eye for this to work. Agent Rose gives Hope a panic button and says they’ll be right outside if she needs them as Hope then enters the room with Harris. Harris greets her and says it’s been a long time.

Megan tells Dr. Rolf that she had such high hopes at first. She flashes back to September after having Dr. Rolf brainwash Bo to get rid of his feelings for Hope. Dr. Rolf tells Megan that the procedure worked exactly as intended. Megan acknowledges that Bo no longer wanted Hope and he was loyal to her, but the spark between them was gone. Megan flashes back to trying to jog Bo’s memory by showing him their old yearbook where they were voted best couple. Megan told Bo that they could be that again and insisted the feelings could come back. Megan complains to Dr. Rolf that Bo was supposed to love her. Dr. Rolf argues that he warned her that he couldn’t create feelings of love out of nothing. Megan warns Dr. Rolf that this serum better work as promised.

Kayla wonders to Marlena if Megan was just trying to scare them and questions why she would kill Kate after going through so much trouble to revive her. Marlena says that Kate is resourceful and can talk her way out of any dire situation.

Bo tells Kate that as he recalls, she and Roman were over a long time ago. Kate informs him that she and Roman got back together and got married. Kate goes over how she apparently died and now she’s here. Bo guesses Dr. Rolf made it happen under Megan’s orders. Kate tells Bo that if he kills Roman’s wife, he will be devastated and asks if that’s what he wants.

Roman questions John and Steve thinking that Hope can get through to Harris Michaels. Roman worries that Harris might not know anything. John states that Harris is in ISA custody in a highly controlled situation. Steve adds that they wanted to go with Hope but she insisted on going alone. Roman worries that Hope almost got herself killed last time she was involved with Harris, so he hopes she’s being safe this time.

Harris questions why Hope is here and why she’d even want to talk to him after he almost killed her and her family. Hope brings up the last time they spoke, he said he thought Megan had brainwashed him so he was sent here for treatment but she questions why he’s fought against that every step of the way since. Harris claims he was lying and said whatever it took to get out of punishment. Hope doesn’t believe him since he’s not keeping up that lie now. Hope believes Harris is still fully under Megan’s control and that’s why he wouldn’t open up to Kimberly and she only sees the real him when they are alone. Hope tells Harris that she came all this way to remind him of what they had. Harris claims there was nothing between them and it was just a con. Harris says he was playing her to get the prism just like she was playing him. Hope says in the beginning, she wasn’t. Hope says there was something real between them before she found out about the prism which is why he couldn’t pull the trigger when Megan ordered him to kill her. Hope questions why Megan had to hire Thomas Banks to kill her. Harris calls that a backup plan. Hope asks Harris why she is still alive. Harris says it’s because he failed. Hope argues that he succeeded in stopping Megan. Hope declares that she’s alive because of him. Hope states that he felt something for her and he still does, insisting that she knows it’s real. Harris asks if she feels something for him too.

Roman tells John and Steve that Hope is risking her life and questions if it’s worth it. John responds that Megan is out there somewhere, behaving like a true DiMera, so who knows what she could be plotting to hurt even more people they love. Steve agrees that Megan is still a threat, so they need to stop her, whatever it takes.

Dr. Rolf tells Megan that he made no promises, but if this serum works, it will allow her and Bo to go back again and start from the beginning. They flash back to November when Megan summoned Dr. Rolf back to the lab where she asked him about the orchid with magical healing powers which she wondered if he could use to help her and Bo turn back time. Megan asked about reversing aging like a time machine and Dr. Rolf revealed to her that he knew where she could get the orchid. Back in the present, Megan tells Dr. Rolf that if they are young again, she knows he will love her again and not just follow her orders like a loyal soldier. Megan notes that Bo has never once questioned anything she’s had him do. Megan then reveals that she had Bo steal the orchid from the DiMera tunnels in December. Megan declares that nobody knew Bo was in Salem as they all think he’s dead and it’s going to stay that way.

Bo tells Kate that Roman already thinks she’s dead so if he pulls the trigger, it won’t make a difference to him. Kate disagrees, insisting that he will find out because the truth always comes out. Bo says he doesn’t care if the truth comes out or about Roman. Kate thinks he’s lying to himself and that she’s struck a chord with the real Bo, who is devoted to his family. Kate brings up Bo’s siblings and children’s names. Kate says she can see Bo deny his feelings for Hope and Roman, but a parent’s love for their child is pure and unshakable even in the worst circumstances. Kate brings up that his daughter Chelsea is her flesh and blood too. Kate argues that Bo won’t break Chelsea’s heart by killing her grandmother, so they know he won’t pull that trigger. Bo responds that he will, if only to shut her up.

Hope states that she and Harris were together for a whole year. Hope confirms that when he kissed her, she felt something. Harris asks if it wasn’t just part of the game and says he wants the truth. Hope admits that as much as she wanted to stay disconnected, there were moments where she felt something. Hope says that she admitted it and asks if he can do the same. Hope touches his arm and says maybe he needs her to remind him. Hope leans in to kiss Harris but he suddenly grabs her by the throat and stops her.

Steve and John tell Roman to think about what Megan did just for revenge on Hope. They argue that it’s not like Megan could have Bo no anyway. Roman can’t believe Megan Hathaway is still alive and not their wives. Roman says sometimes he feels like he’s going crazy since he told people that Kate was talking to him from the great beyond through an urn. John asks if he’s picked up anything from her lately. Roman says now she’s gone silent which makes him wonder if he imagined it. John points out that Paulina heard it too. Steve insists that he saw Kayla. Roman asks if anything like that happened to John or if he ever heard from Marlena. John confirms that he has not heard anything at all from her.

Marlena tells Kayla that she thought appealing to Dr. Rolf’s ego might get them somewhere. Kayla says it was and she’s sure that he was going to tell them who was in the other chamber until Megan interrupted but it won’t get them anywhere now. Marlena wonders if the person who was in the chamber got away, maybe they will come back to help them escape.

Bo asks Kate if she doesn’t think his relationship with Chelsea was complicated, pointing out that she was responsible for the death of another one of his kids. Kate encourages that he got past that. Kate talks about Chelsea and Max being happy in London now, Belle and Shawn are happy, and Ciara and Ben are sailing around the world just like Bo and Hope did. Kate adds that Hope is not happy, she’s miserable because she misses him and he could fix that. Kate encourages that he has another chance. Bo responds that there’s no fixing that since it was over decades ago. Kate questions if Bo is just Megan’s lapdog now.

Megan says some may think it’s selfish of her to keep Bo all to herself, but she brought him back to life and has loved him faithfully all these years which is more than anyone else can say so she deserves him. Megan flashes back to January where she read the article about Marlena, Kate, and Kayla’s deaths as she held on to the orchid and then to February, where Bo questioned what the three women were doing there. Megan told Bo that with their help, they would get back all the time they lost and finally live happily ever after. Back in the present, Megan reminds Dr. Rolf that she got him this lab and the orchid is thriving so he can make lots of the serum. Dr. Rolf talks about the time it will take while Megan declares that she and Bo will be young again, so they can start from the beginning. Megan declares that this time Bo will stay and love her forever while Hope will go off with some other poor sap.

Harris warns Hope not to play him again as he could snap her neck in an instant. Hope says she knows that he won’t just like he couldn’t pull the trigger on their wedding day. Hope argues that he is Megan’s victim, just like she was, and he still is. Hope asks if he wants Megan to get away with everything she’s done to him. Harris doesn’t believe that she gives a damn what happens to him but Hope insists that she does care. Hope adds that they are not Megan’s only victims, revealing that she killed her sister in law Kayla, Kayla’s brother Roman’s wife Kate, and John’s wife Marlena. Hope says that Megan has killed a lot of people she loves. Harris questions why that should matter to him. Hope argues that he is so much more than a trained assassin. Hope says he was a navy hero, a good and honorable man before Megan got a hold of him. Harris reminds her that he killed two men. Hope argues that it wasn’t him and blames the brainwashing but Harris says it doesn’t change the fact that they are dead. Hope encourages that Harris has the opportunity to get his life back and asks if he wants that. Hope says she wants to help him and then he can help her make sure that Megan never hurts anyone ever again. Harris responds that he doesn’t care about Megan. Hope asks him to do it for her then.

John and Steve tell Roman that they will let him know if they hear anything from Hope. They go to leave the Brady Pub and notice the wind has picked up. Roman notes that they must be in for a storm and warns John and Steve to be careful as they leave. Roman heads back inside the Pub and goes back to put Kate’s urn behind the bar.

Kayla asks if Marlena is okay. Marlena guesses quiet times are the hardest and keeps trying to reach out somehow to John and her family to let them know how much she loves them but all she ends up picturing is their pain. Kayla remembers how she grieved for Steve when she thought she had lost him for years and now thinks about their families going through that. Marlena calls that their motivation to get out of here.

John stands outside the Pub and hears Marlena’s voice telling him not to give up on her. John calls out to her but guesses it was just the wind and walks on.

Hope brings Harris out of his room and informs Agent Rose that Harris has agreed to another session with Dr. Brady-Donovan and she has a feeling that he’s going to be a lot more cooperative this time around.

Bo tells Kate that he’s nobody’s lapdog. Kate says that’s not what it seems like to her since this was Megan’s idea and not his. Kate says to her, he just looks like a glorified errand boy.

Marlena tells Kayla that they have to keep the faith that they are going to get out of here along with Kate.

Bo questions Kate thinking this is the best time to insult him. Kate says she’s just surprised that Bo would fall in with a wannabe Stefano like Megan. Bo tells her to stop. Kate questions if Bo is going to shoot her just because Megan told him to. Kate asks where the Bo is that she knew, that would’ve blown up the whole lab and taken off on his motorcycle without bothering to look back. Bo tells her that this is not an action movie, it’s real life. Kate tells him that she just never expected to see him go out this way. Kate brings up how many times Bo brought down Stefano and says that Bo didn’t take orders from anyone and would be disgusted by him. Bo declares that he wants Kate dead. Kate questions if he really does and tells him to go ahead and pull the trigger if he does.

Marlena and Kayla hear a gunshot.

Megan tells Dr. Rolf that the deed is done, so he needs to get back to work and make more of the serum so they can test it on Marlena and Kayla. Megan adds that if it works, she and Bo will be young and in love so they can finally have their happily ever after. Bo returns and informs Megan that it’s done. Megan says she heard the gunshot and she’s very proud of him. Megan tells Bo that she has something else that she needs, but Bo says he doesn’t give a damn because he doesn’t take orders from her. Bo tells her that it’s over and walks off.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Andrew. Hi Paul. If you’re looking for my dad, uh, he, he’s just left for the airport a few hours ago. Excuse me. Up with your uncle Steve. Yeah, I figured

so. What are you doing here?

I came to see you,

so, uh, vacuuming. Yeah, of course.

I think it worked.

I think you got it, man.

Hello ladies. Welcome back to the Land of the Living.

No. Freaking way.

Night. Night. Golden girl.

Is that you? Yeah. Uh, long time. No see.

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Hey mom, it’s me. Um, can you gimme a call back when you get this? I, uh, what I’d like to hear from? Hello, am I glad to see you. Hey. Ugh. Long day. What was it ever? I’m just leading the courthouse. The jury wanted to stay and deliberate so they could come up with a verdict tonight, which they did. You, okay? Uh, yeah.

I just, I’m, I’m worried about my mom, why I can’t seem to reach her. I called her a bunch of times. I left a message and she hasn’t returned. I just tried again and went straight to voicemail. I’m sure she’s just, Yeah, I hope that’s all it is. Hope Brady. What the hell are you doing here? The same thing you are, I assume.

Looking for Megan Hathaway.

I just can’t believe this. Your life. Yep. How? I mean, it’s just, it’s so wonderful. But how

Megan, the prisons, right? I mean, So we assumed that she wanted the prisons because she wanted her father back, but she wanted you, she wanted to bring you back. Mm-hmm. , she succeeded. Look at me. So you’ve been in presentation the whole time? Yeah. You’ve been here while, I’m so sorry. I, I, but I’m thrilled. I’m thrilled because I ran into you.

She had me imprisoned here too. Really? Yeah. That’s just me. Marlena, your sister. Oh, Kayla. Yeah. Kayla. Kayla. Kayla’s here. And Marlena. I mean, it’s all, I have no idea why she did it, but Megan had all three of us here on ice against Star Wheels.

Oh, no,

I’m sorry. Are you going somewhere? I still can’t believe you’re alive. You know, wait to Kayla sees you. She’s gonna just die. She’s, but you know, she’s, of course she already did die, right? So did I. So did Marlene. It’s all. It’s crazy. Yeah. Look, we have to find them. We have to free them. And then all four of us are gonna get the hell out of here.

Right? Come on. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. Um, we can’t do that.

My dad ran outta here pretty fast when he got that call. Yeah,

he said that Steve had a potential lead on the location of Megan Hathaway. I’m guessing that you gave that to him,

like I’m not asking you to tell me where she is. I just wanna know if you think they have a shot of finding her. Well, come on, man. I mean, we’re talking about the woman that murdered my stepmother. Your, your aunt and, and uncle. Your uncle Roman’s wife. I know, but it’s not my case. And even if it were, I’m not allowed to discuss anything related to top secret information.

Yeah, I get it, Paul. Believe me, I care about this too. It’s personal for both of us, for our families. And while I’m not allowed to disclose anything about the investigation, I can assure you that the ISA is doing everything in its power to get justice for these women. Do you trust me on that?

Good. Because I’d really like to talk about something other than Intel such. us.

I didn’t think, there wasn’t us . I mean, I was just telling my dad that you and I stopped talking to each other. Not that we, you know, had a falling out or anything. I mean, you know, I was just us living on opposite sides of the country. Trying to build a relationship like that is, it’s pretty difficult. And, you know, top of that to my, my coaching schedule and your caseload and, and we just didn’t seem to figure out logistics.

I know, I remember. They, the thing is I’ve missed you.

I missed you too.

Well, did something happen? I mean, do you have some reason to believe your mom’s in trouble? No. No, it’s nothing like that. I’m just frustrated that I can’t get ahold of her. Um, you know, I want coming up there on the Megan Hathaway case. Yeah. Her possible connection to my mother’s death. God, I just can’t believe that this woman that I, I’ve never met, that everyone thought died like 40 years ago.

Come in and upend all of our lives and just cause so much sorrow for so many people. And for what? Some ancient grudge. Yeah. Well, I mean, she’s stepping out the mirror’s daughter. Resurrection and vengeance is what that family does best. Yeah. Taking wives away from their husbands and mothers away from their daughters is just, Hey, you know that Megan’s not gonna get away with this.

Especially a black patch on a case. Yeah, I know. That does make me feel better knowing that my dad and Steve are out searching for that murderous bitch.

This is, uh, John, look at you, girl. Oh, Steve. Steve, I’m good to see you. I can’t believe you guys. I can’t believe you’re here. No. Well, we. , we heard that this is where Megan Hathaway was hiding out. Yeah. That she came here after Caracas last July. Yeah. But the ISA only recently discovered that and they’ve kept a top secret.

So how’d you find it outta Shane? Well, we didn’t, but the person we did pry it out of took a little convincing, especially considering what Megan did to us last summer. Yeah. See, the agency thought that maybe we were still under her control, but we’re definitely. But I got a question for you. How did you find out where to look for Megan?

You know, luckily she didn’t mess with my head. So the agency didn’t have the same concerns really. Well that, uh, Intel is still highly classified. I mean, you couldn’t just walk in and get that information unless you got it from Shane. Well, let’s, let’s just say I still have a few friends in high place.

That’s why don’t we? But hey guys, I. No matter how we all got here, I’m so happy to see you both right back at you. Hope we opened that door. The last thing we expected to see was a friendly face, especially one as pretty as you . Steve, you look like you were ready for a fight. , I had one way or another, we’re gonna take half the way down and if it’s gonna be the hard way, so be after what she did to you.

I don’t blame you. That woman deserves what’s coming her way. Well, The fact is it isn’t just about what she did to us.

We should have known that you were gonna show up. I mean, how would we think we were gonna wake up from the dead without you? How indeed you may express your thanks at any time. Don’t hold your breath. So now you’re in league with Megan Hathaway. Hmm. Oh, surely that doesn’t surprise. Well bit you would take directions from somebody who was evil and unhinged.

No, it does not surprise me. I serve as a pleasure as a Demer family. Aunt Megan is a dememer. She’s a daughter of a man who caused pain and suffering to everybody he ever met. Untrue certain. Dara has a legend lost to us far too soon. It is now my duty, honor and privilege to carry on some issues of his progeny.

I shall. Her wish, as they say, is my command. Look, we don’t really have time to wait, okay? No. Oh, did you? Did you hear what I said? Kayla and Marlena, they’re both here somewhere, so Yeah, I heard you, but we can’t leave. If you are worried about Megan, there’s no problem there. She’s incapacitated. What do you mean?

I mean that she had me tied up. She was trying to inject me with some kind of drug, so I punched her in the jaw and I knocked her out. But she could come too anytime. So we need to go Where, where did this happen? Right on the other side of this door, right before I ran into to you. So the love of God.

Let’s get out of here. Um, sorry, but we have to go that way. No. No, we don’t. It’s way too risky. Nope. Don’t have a choice.

I know it didn’t turn out so well for us the last time. Ended up devolving into a bunch of texts about when we could possibly meet up and all the times that we couldn’t. Right. But even when we lost touch, I, I couldn’t stop thinking about last summer meeting you for the first time traveling around the world together, trying to find your dad.

Yeah. It’s not often a, on our first date where we end up in a shared hotel room in Hong Kong. , I’ve never been happier to return someone’s gym clothes , when she could probably tell Yeah. When we kissed . Yeah. Yeah. I, I could,

you know, I thought about that kiss many times. You know, it felt like, uh, it felt like the start of something. Sometimes when I’m sitting at my desk working late, I think about that moment and now I wish we could go back to him.

Maybe we could,

have you heard anything from your dad since you left? No, not yet, but I’m sure I’ll call when there’s an update. Well, knowing your dad and my uncle. Your phone’s gonna be ringing real soon. There aren’t two people on this planet more motivated to find Megan. Yeah, I wish I could do what they’re doing and just throw myself into the search and then give myself away to take my mind off all this grief, you know, in a way that’s productive.

But you know, even if they do find Megan and she does end up behind bars forever, it doesn’t really change anything for me. What do you mean? I mean, no matter how much Megan pays or Orpheus pays, I don’t get what I want. More time. My mom. Where the hell is Megan? And what has she done with Kate? Such anger.

You’re damn right. We’re angry and we’re worried about our friend. You didn’t be really. Why is that? Because she’s been given a great honor. Thanks to her contribution, I will be able to determine if my scientific genius has been successful yet again. And what contribution is that? Well, due to our doctors as well.

Certainly you are familiar with the concept of a test subject. Yeah. But in legitimate medicine, a test subject, volunteers. I’m pretty certain that Kate did not volunteer to help you. Well, actually she was fortunate enough to be chosen. As I said, it is a rare and coveted opportunity. What? Kate will be the very first recipient of my new.

What serum is that?

You think Megan’s the one who stole the orchid? Yes, and it was the only thing that could have occurred. Kayla, Marlene and Kate Hathaway is responsible for their deaths. What I.

Oh, dear God, I’m so sorry.

I’m, I’m in shock. I’m so sorry. I,

I can’t even imagine what you’ve both been going through. I make behind it

all these years, she’s still causing so much destruction and pain to the people I love. I’m. Well, she’s obviously just as vindictive and deranged as she ever was. It all started with her obsession with Bo. You know,

here’s the thing. All the doors in this place, they flock automatically. It’s, it’s like this. You go into a room or whatever and door closes behind you, and it’s locked. Okay. Well, I was just able to let myself out of this room, so, oh, well. When is a door, not a door? When it’s a jar, it must have been open a little bit.

What are you trying to tell me? That, that we’re not gonna be able to get out of here? No, we just, we have to go back in there and get Megan’s. Okay, fine. Let’s just do it. Okay.

Well, there she is, right where I left her. What’d you do to her? Exactly what I told you. I knocked her out. Let’s get those keys and get out of here,

Megan. Hey, wake up. Okay. Just nevermind her. Just get the. Good job. She’s out cold. Yeah, it is good. So good. Get look at her pocket, Megan. Oh, look at her pocket. Let I, I’ll do it. Stay where you are. You said that we needed to get the keys to escape, so let’s just shut up and stay where you are. Hey Megan again.

Can you hear me? Hey, time to wake.

What happened? Hmm? You got cold caught.

Oh, you all right?

I think so. No thanks to her. Yeah, I think she’s figuring out that she got played

I don’t have to tell you what it’s like doing it. No, no you don’t. Not that I wouldn’t get how terribly difficult this is for you anyway, but um, I mean, having gone through this with my dad, I know how much you still miss him. You know, he’d be really proud of you, of everything you’ve accomplished. I mean, you dedicated your entire life to protecting people and not just family and friends, but everybody.

You honor him every day by doing that. I know there, I can’t help but think about all the things that he’s missed out. I mean like another chance with my mom seeing Claire grow up, not being able to spend time with Sierra and her new baby, all the family milestones, birthdays, holidays, and all the ones yet to come.

Yeah, they should both be with us. Your dad and my mom. There’s a day that goes by that I don’t think about him, but. I made peace with the fact that he’s gone. And I think that a big part of being able to do that is that, is that I understand it. I mean, yeah, his death was terrible and it was tragic, but, but it made sense.

And what happened with your mom? It made no sense at all. I’m so sorry, bill. I would do anything to give you more time with your mom. And I would give anything to be able to help you with this pain.

What serum are you talking about? The details are not for me to disclose. Well then who should we ask? You should direct any inquiries regarding the serum to Madame Hask. But trust me when I tell you, it could be life changing or not. Just for her. What is that supposed to mean? Most people get over their high school sweethearts, not her.

Megan never did. So this all goes back to Megan and Bo going steady in high school. Yeah. She thought that Bo had broken up with her and he thought that she had done the same to him, but in fact, neither were true. So what happened? Megan’s mother, she caused the breakup. She manipulated both of them. And when Megan found out she lost it, she, she’s, something broke inside of her.

That’s when she became obsessed with ball and desperate, really desperate to get him back. Are you sure you’re all. Yeah, I’m, I’m fine, but would you just mind helping me out?

Okay.

Back in business.

Look at her like a deer in the headlights. Stunned silence. No, she wouldn’t shut up earlier to hold it. Hold it.

You’re not going anywhere.

What’s wrong? Um, nothing. Nothing. I, I’m just wondering, maybe, maybe this is, maybe this is not a good idea. Do you not want to No, no. I, I do. I I definitely do. But i’s just like what we just talked about, you know, we tried this before and it didn’t work out. I dunno, maybe we’re just setting ourselves up for more disappointment.

I see your point. Well, I, I, I, it’s like we really had, I mean, we really do. We have such a strong connection and, and I would love to see where that takes us. But the last time around, I mean, finding time for each other was such an impossibility. I don’t know, maybe, maybe we should just be smarter if we just cut our, cut our losses now.

Mm. And before we get in too deep. Probably right? I mean, we live so far apart. Our lives are so busy. I mean, there’s a really good chance that this won’t work, but there’s a chance that it might, it’s a chance I’d like to take. Would you.

So your serum is meant to be life changing and not just for Megan. So who else’s life is it going to change? So many questions. And did the answers have anything to do with that? Is Marlina Wright is it also gonna change the life of whoever the former occupant of that tube? Ah, yes. Well, my earliest prototypes, the technology was far more limited back then on, yet it was a very successful project.

Successful how I was able to keep the subject in a cryogenic state for nearly a decade. A decade. Who was it? Who was your subject?

Put down the gun. You’re not going anywhere. Come up. We’re both going somewhere. We’re leaving. Push me. You’ll regret it. I wouldn’t test him if I were you. Look, I, I don’t know what she put you through. Look, clearly you have been through something and you don’t even know what you’re saying. You. You have to trust me.

Okay? I’m on your side. Let me help you. Please

go. We’re not strangers. Okay. We’re, we’ve known each other for years. We’re a family. I was married to Victor. You were married to my daughter. Bo doesn’t need a history lesson, so stop babbling so that we can pick it up where we left off before you so rudely assaulted me and. Phase two will finally begin.

Don’t listen to her. Don’t listen to her. We’ll ditch her and we’ll get out of here. We’ll be free and we can go back to our homes and to the people that we love. Bo I find your lack of gratitude. Very disappointing. God, what do you want me to be grateful for? For what you did to me. I saved your life, didn’t I?

And now I’ve chosen you to be the initial recipient of my new serum. Well, I choose not to be the recipient of a pable fatal drug. Okay. Oh, relax. It might not kill you, but it does need to be tested so it stop wasting time and get on with it. Now, where is that vile?

You mean this?

You know, we really don’t give a damn what Megan’s motivation is. We just want to track her down and make her pay. So, looks like you’ve got a headstart on us. Did you find anything poking around here? I have searched every inch of this labyrinth and, uh, there’s no sign of her. So indication where she might have gone, nothing.

Nothing If there’s a affording address, she did not leave it lying around. Damn, damn well, partner. Looks like it might hit a dead end here. Dead end. What are you talking about? There’s no dead end. There’s gotta be a way to figure out where Megan went. Yep.

You are absolutely right. I missed you. Maybe there is.

Thank you for always knowing exactly what to say. No, I, I don’t always. Don’t even think I do most of the time . I just think that I do in this case because you know, I’ve been there and if there’s something that I can tell you, it’s that you’re never gonna stop missing them. But time, time definitely helps, you know, although there are days that I will feel the loss of my dad, so it’s a cute thing.

It’s like, it just happened yesterday. And then there are other days that I remember all the fun times I had with him now that we had, you know, and think about all the funny things that he’d say and times that he’d tell me that he loves me and that he’s proud of me and that definitely it makes things less painful.

Yeah, right. You know, another thing that. Hmm. So when I remind myself just how blessed I am to be able to share my life with someone like you, someone so kind and so wonderful, who I just happen to love with all my heart, I love you with all my heart too, and I need you so much right now. You have me now.

You have me now, and you have me always.

And do you know what else we need to remind ourselves of? Mm-hmm. , not only do we have each other, got an incredible daughter. Yeah. We’ve got a great big family to lean on.

And now

I’m officially off the clock. I said, what do you say? We go home and we lean on each. On the couch. That sounds really good.

That was perfect.

Ah, exactly the words I was looking for. So can we talk about what happens next? Well, I was thinking.

No. No. , no. Do we discuss where we go from here? Yeah. Yeah. We probably should, but not, right? No, I just wanna enjoy this perfect moment with you.

It’s all right. Get it.

Donovan? Yeah. Pat your through

hope. What can I do for you? I need a favor. I need to go to see Harris Michaels.

We know that you kept Stephan Damara on ice for four years, but a decade. That’s quite a feat, don’t you? Thank Marta. Yes, I do. It’s quite remarkable. Mm-hmm. . So the person must have been very important. Yeah. I’m just, I’m just so curious. I can’t stop thinking about who it might be. I can’t stop thinking about it either.

I mean, it could be, but No, that’s silly. Now what are you thinking? Well, I’m just thinking that maybe what if it’s, uh, somebody famous? You mean like a world leader or a rockstar or a Hollywood legend? Maybe an athlete? You know, I did hear a while back that there was a baseball player who was Cryogenically frozen.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, maybe. Maybe we’re on the wrong track. Maybe it’s somebody who was, I don’t know, closer to home, maybe somebody from Salem, somebody that we all. Yeah. What about that Ro? Somebody we all knew. Somebody close to Salem. I didn’t say anything, but nice try. If I went in such a hurry to complete my experiment, I’d stay and applaud your creativity.

We don’t need your applause. We’d just like to know who was in that tube. And we are pretty. Wasn’t Stefano because you took his essence and put it in Steve. Another hugely successful experiment of mine ruined by stefano’s well meaning, but misguided children for a tremendous loss. When Chad and Tony destroys that microchip, you can lament it later.

Just tell us who it was for the last time. Tell us who was in the tub.

Hand it over. Do you really think that you’re gonna be able to make it out of here without Bo shooting you dead? Or perhaps you think that another pathetic speech about how the two of you used to be family is gonna change his mind. Oh, please give it. You heard the man,

whatever kinship the two of you used to have, it’s long over. I’ll stop wasting time and let’s get on with it.

Time.

That was stupid. Really not allowing you to make me your personal Guinea pig. I think it was one of my smarter moves. How typically arrogant and ignorant of you. Congratulating yourself when you’ve just made one of the most idiotic decisions ever. How’s that? The only reason that I was keeping you alive was to make sure that that serum worked.

Now that it’s gone, you’re of no further use to me,

no point in drawing this out any. You may as well go ahead and kill her.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yep.

Okay. Send him.

Uncle Steve

desk job. Huh? Who’d you piss off? Nice to see you too. I, not to seem too hostile or anything, but what the hell are you doing here? Why do you think I’m. I need your help to find Megan Hathaway,

my dear ladies, your whole family still PS you’re dad, but I don’t want you to sleep your whole life away. Once again, it’s time to wake up. We have so much to do,

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Hey, Robert Lucas. Now I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out why you wanted to see me again.

We can take it by your attitude that this is not a social cult. No, it isn’t. We found out which Demaris told the orchid and. It was step’s. Daughter, why would Kristen take the orchid from herself? Not that daughter. His other daughter made an Hathaway, who’s that? Well, you might have forgotten her because she appeared to die 40 years ago, how Salem offered to appear to die.

Yeah, Larry Wells killed and, uh, stuck her in a hot tub and proceeded to zap it with electricity. It’s pretty thorough. You would think so, but you know how hard it is to kill Dira. And in true Dira form, Stefano took the body and maintained it in life form cryogenic. But now she is very much alive, fully functioning, and totally lethal.

Where is she now? That’s a million dollar question, John. Steve looking and I am here. To find out what you might know.

You know, dad, ah, you need to tell you about this new device that came out with, it’s called a phone. Sorry. Did you show up like this kid? No, it’s fine. It’s a bit surprised. That’s all.

How you doing? About as well as can be expected, I guess.

If it’s hard for me to believe she’s gone, it must be hell for you.

You okay?

Yeah. I forgot how much you love to talk about your feelings. Don’t really see any point in talking about I’m not gonna change anything. Right. Hey, but you know what though? The good thing is, you know, I, I really wanted to stay on in, in Salem after the funeral on. Yeah, well you got a chance to coach Triple A.

You can’t pass that up. So how’s it going up pretty well, actually, here’s the thing, uh, we’re starting a, a home stand. Three games. So don’t you stay around for a couple days, coach my coaching. We’ll see.

Why do I get the feeling that you didn’t come out here to talk about baseball? Because I didn’t. You on a case, Steve and I are you. Look, we ought to sit.

You have to know that finding Ms. Hathaway is one of the agency’s top priorities. Wow. Agency speak, getting real good at that. The thing is, this isn’t my case, but I can’t put you in touch with the agent in charge. Well, if I wanted to talk to the agent in charge, I wouldn’t be in your office. Now, remember when we spoke on the phone a few days ago, I got the distinct feeling that you were giving me the runaround.

So I’m here face to face to get some answers. Steve, it’s not that I won’t answer your questions. I can’t.

Are you awake too? Oh, I was having a nightmare. I think we’re actually living one. Yeah, it trumps it. Megan was holding this captain and we didn’t know why. Well, I don’t think we have time to find out. We need to get outta here. Here I, I’m okay. Why don’t you help Kate? Damn. What is it? She’s gone. How could she be

here? Go. What the hell are you smiling at? I’m happy because phase two. Is finally about to begin.

What? What is going on? Why am I tied up? Where am Marlena and Kayla? Okay, I, who the hell do you think you are? Does it not compute that you are the one who’s tied up? And I am not? That you’re not in a position of power and that I am, perhaps it would be wise of you to at least try not to infuriate me. I didn’t realize you were so fragile.

Not at all. I just think that life is short and we should all try to get along as best we can. Okay. Okay. Remind if I. Uh, would you be so kind as to tell me where Marlena and Kayla are and if they are okay. The doctors, Evans and Johnson are absolutely fine. , see your idea of absolutely fine. And mine are probably not the same.

They ain’t dead. How’s that? Has anyone ever told you that you’re a complete pain in the. Well, your father thought I was absolutely delightful, but then again, he had a sense of humor. , is that what you think it was now? I have something very important to discuss with you. No, I do not wanna talk about anything with you.

You need to get me and Marlena and Kayla back home and to our husbands.

I didn’t even know there was a Megan Hathaway. How, how would I know anything about her? Well, we didn’t know that. We thought maybe your mom had mentioned something when she and uh, Stephanie were married. No, I would’ve remembered. I, I would’ve said so. I would’ve said something as soon as Oria said that, that a DIR stole the orchid who effectively killed my mother.

Yeah, I know that. Look, Lucas we’re, Glassman saw us here. John and Steve are in touch with the isa, but it seems at this point that Megan has just vanished into thin air. Stephanie could do that too, right? Yeah. Well, I think the two of them have lots in common. What I don’t get is why would a woman who’s been, I don’t know, dead for 40 years, why would she come back and try to kill my.

My mom didn’t even know her. I’m telling you, I’m telling you. When my mom was married to Stefano, I never once heard either of ’em say the the name Megan Mali. I don’t think Kate was a real target from what I configured. The bitch was after Kayla and Myla.

You think Kate really found a way out here and left us behind? Well, it wouldn’t be the first time that she looked after number one. No. No, it wouldn’t. If Kate found a way out of here, she must have done it with some planning. Don’t you think that Megan wouldn’t have security cameras everywhere? Who knows?

Locked? Of course it is. But if Kate got out of here, she would not have locked the door behind. So Megan must have done that. Yeah. I’m getting really tired of this. Megan Hathaway. Yeah. Yeah. She kept talking about her plan. I, I wonder if maybe Kate was part of that plan. Oh, we have gotta find a way out of here.

Are you gonna.

Another cryogenic cylinder.

So who the hell was in here?

So you think Andrew can help you track down Megan Hathaway? Oh, that’s what we’re hoping. So he didn’t mention anything to you off the cuff about her? No. You want a beer? I’m gonna have a beer. Don’t take this personally here. He’s not trying to shut you out. ISA agents can’t really bring their work home with him.

Hell, it’s not like that. Yeah. And what’s it like? Nothing. Yeah. Angie and I aren’t really talking to each other about. And that’s it.

If you have any idea where Megan Hathaway is, which I think you do, I don’t understand why you won’t tell me. You and John don’t have clearance. We don’t have clearance. Do you have any idea how long John and I have been doing the agency’s dirty work? Just ask your father how many times we put our lives on the line and then tell me we don’t have clearance.

I don’t have to ask my father. I grew up on the. And everyone here knows and respects your history. Oh, my history. Listen now we’re trying to find the woman responsible for the death of our wives, and you tell me we don’t have clearance. Why the hell not? Because there’s a concern that you and John have been compromised.

And it’s not like Andrew and I had a falling out. Hmm. You just said that you and Andrew aren’t talking to each other. About anything, so, so how is that not a falling out? No, I mean that we didn’t get in a big fight or anything and it wasn’t that we didn’t get along. We did, we’re getting along. That sounds pretty tepid.

So in other words, what? No heat. Dad. Oh dad, what? Come on. You told me when you two in Hong Kong, there was a lot of chemistry there. So what happened? He comes here to visit. What? The movie doesn’t live up to the preview. Okay. What happened was, we had a great time together and we thought we could make it work, but then reality checked in.

He lives in dc I live here. He’s got a demanding job. I’m transitioning to become a coach. You know, long distance relationships, they involve, well, a lot of logistics. I see. And it’s, it’s too hard for a couple middle-aged farts to make adjustments, not middle-aged Well, you know, the way he could’ve fooled.

Come on, you got a secret agent, you’ve got a superstar athlete, and you two act like a couple of insurance adjusters. So you know, you, you’re fine. You, you sit here, you sit here all alone, and you just keep convincing yourself that logistics are too complicated to be with someone who could actually make you happy.

How do you really feel about it?

Compromise. Huh? What the hell’s that supposed to? It means the last summer in Hong Kong, you were Megan Hathaway’s hired muscle. We weren’t hired, we were brainwashed, and it was pretty effective. You held a whole room hostage. You put a gun to Wendy Shin’s head. We were under Megan Hathaway’s. Control. And how does anyone know that you’re not now?

Oh, you think John and I are sleeper? I don’t, but some very important people in the organization have reservations, so now my partner and I are in the impossible position of having to prove a negative. You said you don’t believe it. Why? Because I was there when Paul broke through to John and broke Megan’s spell.

While I understand your desire to get back to Salem and your dreary little lives, I’m afraid I can’t accommodate you. As I said, phase two is about to begin and your participation is non-negotiable.

what does that even. I didn’t even know there was a phase one and now apparently it’s all over. You don’t need to know you. Marlena and Kayla are just chest pieces on the board pawns in someone else’s game. Okay, I so are Roman, John and Steve. Are they paws as well? Is that why they believe we’re all dead?

They believe you’re all dead because someone took the only thing that could have saved your.

Damn look, actually I think it’s quite beautiful.

So was Kayla and Marlene who put the kibosh? When Megan’s big plant Katie had nothing to do with she telling me my mom died for no good reason. Yeah, it feels that way and that’s why we have to find Megan to make her pay for what she did. It’s not gonna bring my mom back. You think? I don’t know. I’m sorry.

I know this has been hard for you too. How are you doing? Want me to lie to you? Tell you I’m doing okay. I can see you’re not okay. I want you to tell me the truth. Well, I got lots of people looking out for me. Abe came over the other day and, uh, told me how he fell when he lost Lexi, and how he thought he’d never fall in love.

I knew I meant well, but, uh, all does. Lets, uh, remind me how much time your mom and I wasted and how damn happy we were when we got back together. And now I have to face the fact that I will never see her again. And I am very sure that John and Steve feel exactly the same way.

Look, it’s power down and the locks have been released. There’s no one in there. Now. Whoever was in there, Megan had to have let them go. Well, I’m no expert, but it looks like that is a lot older than these are. Then you heard what Megan said. She never throws anything away. She also told Steve and John that she was cryogenically frozen after she was supposedly.

So maybe that’s where she was stashed. And what about the prisms? She said she wanted those to help cure someone. She cared about someone we all thought was dead. And who was it who was in the tube? Oh God. I think I know.

I know it’s not exactly the same, and I know I don’t have any right telling you this right now, but the way you feel about my mom is exactly the way I feel about Sammy. Sammy’s not good. Yeah, I know, but I’m pretty much as good as dead to her. She’ll never forgive me. I’ve never loved anyone the way I loved her, and I’ll never have a chance to get her back.

I, I know I blew that. You’re not always wrong, and I know she’ll never forgive me, and I know you’ll never forgive me. That’s why I’m really appreciative that you come here and you talk to me and you tell me what’s going on. I know that I don’t deserve it.

Well, you know what? You won’t get a big argument from me on that, but the thing is, You’re Kate son. She did forgive you and she did love you. And I am thinking, Lucas, that in a way you and I talking to each other this way is a good way to honor your mom’s memory. So that’s the orchid. The orchid. When I got you here, you were all at death’s store.

How else do you think I was able to revive you? I had to use the orchid to count of the effects of the toxin that Orpheus gave you. Kind of weird thinking about your life being dependent. A flower. I had someone prepare and administer the necessary second. That is why you’re still here.

This flower’s healing power. It’s not restricted to what ailed the three of you. I took it because I needed to remedy my own condition. And that of someone who is very dear to me,

Ste. You think it was Ste? Well, what if Megan was just keeping him on ice and now she has the three prisms and, and she’s thinking that what the Phoenix may rise. Well, you know what? I have a second thought. Even if that man’s body was able to be preserved, he would just be a shell, his, his spirit, his soul, as if he had one.

You know, he did have one, but it was evil and destructive, and it was taken from his body in the form of a microchip, and it was put in Steve’s head, and then I was able to remove it. And then Chad and. Burned it. Okay. Then Stefano is gone. Stefano is dead. He has to be,

my wife is dead and John’s wife is dead because of Megan. Now, how could you people think that we’d be helping her? I told. I don’t think that, and I know how much you loved on Kayla. I did too. I don’t want justice for her as much as you do. Don’t talk to me about justice. My Kayla is gone and the agency has decided that we can’t be trusted with clearance and you are gonna play it to the agency.

Okay, that’s fine. We’re gonna keep looking for her and we’re gonna find her. Whether you help us or not

good, you just get back to your busy work

and say hello to your dad for me. Uncle Steve,

I just pulled up our file on Megan Hathaway because I have clearance. I can view it whenever I want. I’m just not at liberty to share it with you. But what I can do is offer you a cup of government issue, coffee, and it’s a coffee station at the end of the hall. Would you like a cup of coffee and take me maybe three, four minutes?

Yeah, I’d like a cup of coffee. Thank you. It’s the least I can do.

You. Sorry kid, I didn’t mean that. Shouldn’t have said anything. It’s really none of my business.

Saved by the bell. I gotta take this.

Yeah. What’s up? I might have a possible location on Megan Hathaway. It’s a long shot, but right now it’s our only shot. So how fast can you get to the airport? You know, I don’t think we have to worry too much about who was in that tube, because right now I think that Megan has Kate, and if that’s. I think things are gonna start changing pretty fast around here, and we better be getting out while we still can.

Agreed. We need to find a way through that door from the look of it. We’re not gonna break it down. I think that we just have to start getting smart about this.

I, I, I could give you a ride to the airport. Oh, I’m fine, thanks. Or you could get two tickets to wherever it is you’re going. You know that place? That’s your only shot. Just a figure of speech. Oh, come on dad. We were just in a heated discussion about my failed love life and how I’m basically screwing life up in general, and then Steve calls and what You’re outta here.

So I know it’s important. I know it’s urgent and it’s probably dangerous, so let me help you. Let me come with you. No, because Steve and Eric, we just need to do this on our.

All right, but please be careful. I don’t wanna have to fly halfway around the world to save your ass again. I’m never gonna hear the end of that, am I? No.

Listen about before I’m. I’m sorry, I I had no right to talk to you like that. I was really outta line. Do you really think that? I don’t get that. It must be damn frustrating when you’ve lost Marlena and to, to see me all alone and apparently not doing anything about it. But still, it, it’s, it’s none of my business.

You’re my dad. And as much as I hate to admit it, you got a point. So you and I were cool. Okay. You’ve got enough on your plate without worrying about. Okay, thanks. I gotta run. Good. Okay. Well, uh, you know, just, just let me know when you’re o when you’re okay. When you have the time. I can’t help. I, I just worry about you.

Good luck this weekend.

Okay, well, I’m gonna check in with, uh, John, Steve, see if they’re having any luck. Just keep me busted first. Hurt while, alright,

so you said that you had to use it to remedy your own condition. Are you sure you really did that? Cause you’re not looking so.

The lighting’s not very good in here. I’m fine. You know, I could have let you die,

You expect me to. Thank you. Uh, oh. Maybe I should have sent you a fruit basket when I get home, but then I’m again, to do that I would need your address, so, so what’s it gonna be? Is it gonna be a cell at Statesville or a padded room at Bayview? You know, you really are a pain in the ass. Which erases any hesitation that I might have had to proceed?

What do you mean I’m going to use you as a Guinea pig? You see, someone has made me a little serum. Only it came with a caveat. What doesn’t make me stronger might in fact kill me, and I don’t see any reason that I should take that risk, not when I have you here to do a trial run on.

This, please. Like a damn labyrinth. Yep. Been switching these hallways for. Almost an hour no sign. Megan Hathaway was ever here. Well, the ISA analyst put the probability at 12%. These aren’t good odds partner. That’s the only lead we got. You know the agency checked it out before, maybe they missed something.

You don’t wanna stop, do you buddy? We’re not gonna stop till we find that woman in Baker Bay.

Guys mock up. You gonna turn, lock pick on you on, man? You said you were bringing yours ia, security confiscated. Oh, okay. So now what do you,

what’s. A nice little cocktail that someone whipped for me. I have it on good authority that you and my dearly departed brother Andre, had an affinity from martinis. Shaken, not injected. You are right. I am not yet fully recovered from being well, you know.

And I’m told that this could be the answer to my prayers. Well then why not use it on yourself rather than waving around near me, because while it may take care of whatever it is that I need, it does come with the one-off chance of an unpleasant side effect. Well, I suggest that you try something homeopathic first, then I’m more inclined to do a trial run on you.

You see, look at the kill you. It could potentially have very extraordinary effects. Something that you’ll thank me for later, and if it does happen to kill you, who knows? Maybe someone will bring you back to life again. Right?

Oh my. And you’ve been at that forever. Maybe we should try something else. Ah, ah, I got it.

You think that’s going to get us out of here? You know, when you pointed to the chamber, it reminded me of a date that I had with Steve where we talked all about how to pick a lock. So I got him to teach me. And you know, it, it’s actually pretty simple if you have a wire. What like a, like a bobby pin? No, no.

Nine times outta 10, those will break. You need something industrial like from a, a heating or cooling unit, like, like this, uh, cryogenic chamber. Well, let’s just hope that Steve taught you. Well, man. Kathy’s not the heating unit around the corner. Nice.

Before you do whatever you’re going to do to me, can I, can I at least say something? Final last words. Make it snappy. It’ll be short. Just a sentence. Okay. What is it? The rope on my hand wasn’t tight. Stop it.

I think it worked.

I think you got it, man. Click.

Oh, I miss you. I haven’t heard your voice in a while, but if there’s a way for you to reach out to me again, I know you’ll make that happen. I love you.

Night. Night, golden Girl.

Andrew. Hi Paul. Well, if you’re looking for my dad, uh, he, he’s just left for the airport a few hours ago. He’s meeting up with your uncle Steve. Yeah, I figured.

So then what are you doing here? I came to see you,

so, uh, yeah. Come in. Ah, yeah, of course.

I think it worked.

I think you got it, man. I heard a click.

Hello ladies. Welcome back to the Land of the Living.

No. Freaking way.

Night. Night. Golden girl.

Is that you? Yeah. Uh, long time. No see.

Update written by Joseph

Paul answers his door and is surprised to see Andrew Donovan. Paul informs him that if he came to see John, he just left for the airport to meet up with Steve. Andrew says he figured and that he came to see Paul, so Paul invites him in.

Kayla successfully picks the lock on the door in the lab.

Steve and John pick the lock on the door they are at.

Kayla goes to open the door but hears movement from the other side.

Steve and John then open the door with their guns raised.

Kayla and Marlena’s door opens and it’s Dr. Rolf, who welcomes them back to the land of the living.

Steve and John are shocked to find Hope Brady with her gun raised as well on the other side of the door!

After knocking out Megan, Kate escapes and runs in to Bo Brady! Kate asks if it’s really him. Bo confirms it is and says long time no see.

At the police station, Shawn calls Hope and leaves her a message, saying that he’d like to talk to her. Belle arrives and says she’s glad to see him as they hug. Shawn asks if it was a long day. Belle says she’s just leaving the courthouse as the jury wanted to stay and deliberate so they could come up with a verdict. Belle asks if Shawn is okay. Shawn says he is just worried about his mom because he can’t seem to reach her despite calling and leaving messages. Belle is sure she’s just busy. Shawn hopes that’s all it is.

Steve questions what the hell Hope is doing here. Hope assumes the same thing they are; looking for Megan Hathaway.

Megan remains knocked out where Kate left her.

Kate can’t believe that Bo is alive and asks how. Kate guesses it was Megan and the prisms. Kate says they assumed Megan wanted the prisms to bring Stefano back, but she wanted to bring Bo back. Bo confirms that she succeeded. Kate asks if he’s been imprisoned here the whole time. Bo confirms he’s been here awhile. Kate says she’s so sorry but she’s thrilled that she ran in to him because Megan had her imprisoned here as well along with Marlena and Bo’s sister Kayla. Kate says she has no idea why she did it but Megan had the three of them on ice against their wills.

Dr. Rolf asks Marlena and Kayla if they were going somewhere.

Kate still can’t believe Bo is alive and says to wait until Kayla sees him. Kate says this is all crazy but they have to find Marlena and Kayla so they can free them and then all four of them can get the hell out of here. Bo stops her and says they can’t do that.

Paul tells Andrew that John ran out pretty fast when he got Steve’s call, saying that he had a potential lead on the location of Megan Hathaway. Paul guesses that Andrew gave that to him. Paul notes that he’s not asking him to tell him where he is, he’s just asking if he thinks they have a chance at finding her. Paul argues that they are talking about the woman who murdered his stepmom, Andrew’s aunt, and his uncle Roman’s wife. Andrew says he knows but it’s not his case and even if it were, he’s not allowed to discuss any of the information. Paul gets that it’s top secret information. Andrew insists that he cares about this too as it’s personal for both of them and their families. Andrew assures that the ISA is doing everything in it’s power to get justice for these women. Paul says he trusts him on it. Andrew says good because he’d really like to talk about them. Paul didn’t think there was a them since they stopped talking. Paul notes that they didn’t have a falling out or anything but living on opposite sides of the country and trying to build a relationship is difficult and with their schedules, they couldn’t seem to figure out logistics. Andrew says he remembers but admits he’s missed Paul. Paul responds that he’s missed him too.

Belle asks Shawn if something happened or if he has a reason to believe Hope is in trouble. Shawn says it’s nothing like that and he’s just frustrated that he can’t get a hold of her as he wanted to fill her in on the Megan Hathaway case and see if she knows anything. Belle can’t believe that Megan could just upend all their lives and cause so much sorrow for so many people for some ancient grudge. Shawn points out that she’s Stefano DiMera’s daughter and resurrection and vengeance is what that family does best. Belle complains that what Megan did is sick. Shawn assures that Megan won’t get away with this, especially with Black Patch on the case. Belle admits it does make her feel better knowing that John and Steve are looking for this murderous bitch.

Hope hugs John and Steve, saying she can’t believe they are here. John says they heard this was where Megan Hathaway was hiding out. Hope notes that the ISA only recently discovered that and kept it top secret, so she questions how they pried it out of Shane. Steve admits they didn’t but the person they did pry it out of took a little convincing, especially considering what Megan did to them last summer. John explains that the ISA thought maybe they were still under Megan’s control. Steve assures they are not and asks how Hope figured out where Megan was. Hope notes that Megan never messed with her head so the ISA didn’t have the same concerns with her. Steve points out that it’s still highly classified so she couldn’t just walk in and get that information, unless she got it from Shane. Hope says she still has a few friends in high places. Hope adds that no matter how they all got here, she’s so happy to see them both. Steve says the last thing they expected when they opened the door was a friendly face. Hope points out that he looked ready for a fight. John declares that one way or another, they’re going to take Megan Hathaway down. Hope states that Megan deserves what’s coming her way. Steve adds that it’s not just about what she did to them.

Kayla complains that they should’ve known Dr. Rolf would show up and asks how they would wake up from the dead without him. Dr. Rolf says they can express their thanks at any time. Kayla tells him not to hold his breath. Marlena questions Dr. Rolf working for Megan now. Dr. Rolf says they can’t be surprised, pointing out that he serves at the pleasure of the DiMera family and Megan is a DiMera. Marlena argues that Stefano brought pain and suffering to everyone he met. Dr. Rolf disagrees and calls him a legend that was taken far too soon. Dr. Rolf says it’s now his mission to carry on his legacy with Megan, so anything she asks of him, he will do.

Kate tells Bo that they don’t really have time to wait because Kayla and Marlena are both here somewhere. Bo repeats that they can’t leave. Kate informs him that Megan is incapacitated so there is no worry there. Bo asks what she means. Kate reveals that she knocked Megan out but she could come to at any moment so they have to get out of here. Bo responds that he’s sorry but they have to go back to the room Megan is in. Kate calls it way too risky but Bo says they don’t have a choice.

Andrew knows it didn’t turn out well for he and Paul the last time and it ended up devolving in to texts about times they could meet up. Andrew admits that even when they lost touch, he couldn’t stop thinking about last summer, meeting him and traveling around the world together trying to find John. Paul jokes that it’s not often that he goes on a first date where they end up in a shared hotel room in Hong Kong. Andrew brings up when they kissed. Paul admits he thought about that kiss many times and says it felt like the start of something. Andrew notes that sometimes when he’s working late, he thinks about that moment and wishes they could go back to it. Paul suggests maybe they could and then they kiss.

Shawn asks if Belle has heard from John since he left. Belle says not yet but she’s sure he will call when there’s an update. Shawn feels her phone will be ringing soon then because there’s no one more motivated to find Megan than John and Steve. Belle wishes she could do what they are doing and throw herself in to the search to take her mind off all the grief in a way that’s productive. Belle adds that even if they find Megan and she ends up behind bars forever, it doesn’t really change anything for her because no matter how much Megan or Orpheus pays, she doesn’t get any more time with her mom.

Kayla and Marlena question Dr. Rolf about where Megan is and what she’s done with Kate. Dr. Rolf tells them not to worry because thanks to Kate, he will be able to determine if his scientific genius has been successful again. Dr. Rolf calls Kate a test subject. Kayla argues that test subjects volunteer in legitimate medicine and she’s pretty sure Kate didn’t volunteer. Dr. Rolf argues that she was fortunate to be chosen to be the first recipient of his new serum.

Hope asks John and Steve about thinking that Megan took the orchid. Steve confirms it was the only thing that could’ve cured Marlena, Kayla, and Kate. John declares that Megan Hathaway is responsible for their deaths. Hope is shocked and says that can’t be. Hope tells them that she’s so sorry as she can’t even imagine what they have been going through. Hope says after all these years, Megan is still causing so much destruction and pain to the people she loves. Steve says she’s obviously as vindictive and deranged as she ever was. Hope points out that it all started with Megan’s obsession with Bo.

Bo informs Kate that all the doors in this place lock automatically. Kate points out that she just let herself out of the room she was in. Bo guesses it must have been open a little bit. Kate asks if he’s telling her that they can’t get out of here. Bo tells her that they have to go back and get Megan’s keys which Kate agrees to do. They go back in where Megan remains knocked out. Bo questions what she did to her. Kate repeats that she knocked her out and says to get the keys and get out of here. Bo checks on Megan and confirms she’s out cold. Kate tells Bo to just get the keys but Bo starts trying to wake Megan up. Kate argues about the keys but Bo warns her to stay where she is. Bo wakes Megan up. Megan asks what happened. Bo informs her that she got cold cocked and asks if she’s alright. Megan says she thinks so, no thanks to Kate. Bo thinks Kate is now figuring out that she got played.

Belle tells Shawn that she doesn’t have to tell him what it’s like. Shawn gets how terribly difficult it is for her. Shawn relates to having gone through this with his dad. Belle knows how much he still misses him and assures he’d be really proud of everything he’s accomplished and dedicating his entire life to protecting people. Belle says that Shawn honors his father every day by doing that. Shawn can’t help but think of all that his father missed out, like seeing Claire grow up along with Ciara and her new baby. Belle states that his dad and her mom should both still be with them. Shawn says he thinks about him every day but he made peace with the fact that he’s gone and he thinks a big part of being able to do that is that he understands it. Shawn says his father’s death was terrible and tragic but it made sense while what happened with Marlena made no sense at all. Shawn tells Belle that he’s so sorry and that he would do anything to give her more time with her mom and to be able to help her with this pain.

Marlena questions what serum Dr. Rolf is talking about. Dr. Rolf says the details are not his to disclose and suggests they direct any questions to Megan. Dr. Rolf warns that the serum could be life changing and not just for Megan.

Hope tells John and Steve about how Megan never got over Bo, who was her high school sweetheart. Hope explains about how Megan and Bo both thought the other broke up with them, but it was manipulated by Megan’s mother and when Megan found out, something broke inside of her, and that’s when she became obsessed with Bo and desperate to get him back.

Bo asks Megan if she’s sure she’s alright. Megan assures that she’s fine and asks Bo to help her up, so he does. Megan remarks that Kate is stunned silent. Bo responds that Kate wouldn’t shut up earlier. Kate tries to leave but Bo pulls a gun on her and says she’s not going anywhere.

Paul and Andrew kiss until Paul stops and wonders if this isn’t a good idea. Paul assures that he definitely wants it but reminds him that they tried before and it didn’t work out, so he worries they are setting themselves up for more disappointment. Paul acknowledges that they have a great connection and he would love to see where that takes them, but finding time to be together last time was so hard so maybe they should cut their losses now before they get too deep. Andrew agrees that they live so far apart and their lives are so busy so there’s a really good chance it might not work, but there’s a chance it might and that’s a chance he’d like to take, so they continue kissing.

Marlena and Kayla question Dr. Rolf about his serum being life changing but not just for Megan, so they want to know who else’s life it’s going to change. Dr. Rolf mocks them having so many questions. Marlena asks if the answers have anything to do with the cryogenic chamber in the room. Kayla asks if the serum will affect whoever was in the chamber. Dr. Rolf says that was one of his earliest prototypes and a very successful project. Marlena asks how it was successful. Dr. Rolf reveals that he kept the subject in a cryogenic state for nearly a decade. Kayla questions who the subject was.

Kate tells Bo to put down the gun. Bo tells her that she’s not going anywhere. Kate responds that they are both leaving. Bo warns that she will regret it if she pushes him. Megan adds that she wouldn’t test him. Kate doesn’t know what Megan has put Bo through but argues that he doesn’t even know what he’s saying. Kate urges Bo to trust her and let her help him. Kate says they aren’t strangers and have known each other for years. Kate reminds Bo that she was married to Victor and Bo was married to her daughter. Megan argues that he doesn’t need a history lesson and tells Kate they are going to pick up from before she rudely assaulted her and then phase two will finally begin. Kate encourages Bo not to listen to Megan and to ditch her so they can be free and return home to the people they love. Megan is disappointed in Kate’s lack of gratitude, reminding her that she saved her life and now she’s chosen her to be the first recipient of her new serum. Kate refuses to be the recipient of a potentially fatal drug. Megan argues that it won’t kill her but it does need to be tested. Kate finds the vial of the serum on the floor and picks it up.

John tells Hope that they don’t give a damn what Megan’s motivation is as they just want to track her down and make her pay. Steve asks if Hope found anything while poking around. Hope confirms there’s no sign of Megan or any idea of where she went. John guesses they hit a dead end. Steve disagrees and says there has to be a way to figure out where Megan went. Hope agrees and declares that maybe there is.

Belle thanks Shawn for always knowing exactly what to say. Shawn doesn’t think he does most of the time and he only does in this case because he’s been there. Shawn says they never stop missing them but time definitely helps. Shawn notes that there are days that he feels the loss of his dad like it just happened yesterday and there’s other days that he remembers all the fun times they had. Shawn adds that it helps to remind himself of how blessed he is to spend his life with Belle. Belle says she loves him with all her heart and she needs him so much right now. Shawn assures that she always has him. Shawn reminds Belle that not only do they have each other, but an incredible daughter and a great big family to lean on. Shawn declares that he is now officially off the clock so he suggests they go home to lean on each other on the couch.

Paul and Andrew end up having sex. They talk about it being perfect. Andrew asks if they should talk about where they go from here. Paul says they should but not right now and kisses him until they are interrupted by Andrew getting a call from Hope. Hope tells him that she needs a favor; she needs to get in to see Harris Michaels.

Kayla tells Dr. Rolf that they know he kept Stefan DiMera on ice for four years but a decade is quite a feat. Marlena agrees and says the person must have been very important. Kayla can’t stop thinking about who it might be. Kayla asks what if it’s somebody famous. Marlena and Kayla talk about how maybe it was someone from Salem that they all knew. Dr. Rolf says if he wasn’t in a hurry to complete his experiment, he would applaud their creativity. Marlena says they just want to know who was in the tube. Kayla adds that they are pretty sure it wasn’t Stefano since Rolf took his essence and put it in Steve. Dr. Rolf calls that another hugely successful experiment of his, ruined by Stefano’s misguided children. He calls it a terrible loss because of Chad and Tony. Kayla and Marlena demand that he tell them who was in the tube.

Bo tells Kate to hand the vial over. Megan asks if Kate really thinks she will get out without Bo shooting her dead or if she thinks a speech about how they used to be family is going to change his mind. Bo tells Kate again to give the vial to Megan. Megan states that whatever kinship they used to have is long over. Megan orders Kate to stop wasting time and get on with it. Kate says fine but then drops the vial and smashes it. Megan calls that stupid. Kate thinks it was a smart move to not let her make her the guinea pig. Megan calls it arrogant of Kate to congratulate herself on making one of the most idiotic decisions ever because the only reason that she was keeping Kate alive was to make sure the serum worked, but now that the serum is gone, Kate is of no further use to her. Megan declares there’s no point in dragging this out any further and instructs Bo to go ahead and kill Kate.

Update written by Joseph

In the secret DiMera Lab, Marlena, Kate, and Kayla remain lying in their tubes.

In San Francisco, California, Paul Narita is working out at home when his father, John, shows up at the door and they hug.

At ISA Headquarters in Washington DC, Steve arrives to visit Andrew Donovan. Andrew greets him and asks what he’s doing here. Steve asks why he thinks and responds that he needs his help in finding Megan Hathaway.

Megan Hathaway enters the secret DiMera Lab and declares that Marlena, Kate, and Kayla’s families still think they are dead, but she doesn’t want them to sleep their life away. Megan announces it’s time to wake up because they have so much to do..

Roman goes to visit Lucas in prison. Lucas says he’s been trying to figure out why Roman wanted to see him again and guesses it’s not a social call. Roman reveals that they figured out which DiMera stole the orchid as it was Stefano’s other daughter, Megan Hathaway. Lucas questions who that is. Roman says he might have forgotten her because she appeared to die 40 years ago. Lucas calls that very Salem of her. Roman explains how Larry Welch electrocuted her in a hot tub but you know how hard it is to kill a DiMera and in true DiMera form, Stefano took her body and maintained it in life form, cryogenically, but now she’s very much alive, fully functioning and lethal. Lucas asks where she is now. Roman says that is the question and he’s here to find out what Lucas might know.

Paul jokes with John about not calling. John apologizes for just showing up like this. Paul says it’s fine and he’s just a bit surprised. Paul asks how he’s doing. John says about as well as could be expected. Paul says it’s hard for him to believe that Marlena is gone, so it must be Hell for him. Paul asks if he’s okay but John doesn’t answer so Paul jokes about John not liking to talk about his feelings. John responds that he doesn’t see the point in talking about his feelings because it’s not going to change anything. Paul mentions wanting to stay in Salem after the funeral but he got a job coaching AAA baseball. Paul tells John that they have games at home so he invites John to stick around for a few days and coach his coaching. John says they’ll see. Paul guesses John didn’t come out here to talk about baseball. John confirms that he and Steve are on a case and suggests they sit down.

Andrew assures Steve that finding Megan is one of the ISA’s top priorities. Steve mocks his agency speak. Andrew clarifies that it’s not his case but he could put Steve in touch with the agent in charge. Steve says if he wanted the agent in charge, he wouldn’t be in Andrew’s office. Steve brings up when they talked on the phone a few days ago and how he felt Andrew was giving him the run around so now he’s here, face to face, to get some answers. Andrew says it’s not that he won’t answer his questions, but he can’t.

Kayla and Marlena wake up. They talk about feeling like they are living a nightmare. Kayla gets out of her bed and goes to help Kate but finds that Kate is gone. Kayla wonders where the hell she could be.

Kate wakes up tied up in a room with Megan, who announces that phase two is finally about to begin. Kate questions what is going on, why she’s tied up, and where Marlena and Kayla are. Kate asks who the hell Megan thinks she is. Megan argues that Kate is not in a position of power and she is, so she advises Kate to not try to infuriate her. Megan remarks that life is short so they should all try to get along as best they can. Kate asks where Marlena and Kayla are and if they are okay. Megan assures they are absolutely fine. Kate thinks they have different definitions of absolutely fine. Megan states that they aren’t dead. Megan calls Kate a pain in the ass. Kate brings up that Stefano thought she was delightful, but he had a sense of humor. Megan says she has something very important to discuss with Kate but Kate doesn’t want to discuss anything with her. Kate tells Megan that she needs to let her, Kayla, and Marlena go back to their husbands.

Lucas tells Roman that he didn’t even know of Megan Hathaway so he questions how he could know anything. Roman says they didn’t know that but thought maybe Kate may have mentioned something while married to Stefano. Roman admits they are grasping at straws. Roman says Steve and John are in touch with the ISA but it seems at this point that Megan has vanished in to thin air. Lucas notes that Stefano could do that too. Lucas questions why a woman who had been dead for 40 years would come back to kill his mother when she didn’t even know her. Lucas insists that he never heard Kate or Stefano even say the name Megan Hathaway. Roman doesn’t think Kate was the real target as he figures Megan was after Kayla and Marlena.

Kayla wonders if Kate found a way out and left them behind. Marlena says if Kate did, she must have planned it. Marlena figures Megan would have security cameras everywhere. Marlena tries the door but it’s locked. Marlena notes that if Kate got out, she wouldn’t have locked the door behind her so Megan must have done that. Kayla says she’s getting really tired of Megan. Marlena brings up Megan talking about her plan and wonders if Kate was part of that plan. Marlena declares that they have to find a way out. Marlena pulls back a curtain to find another cryogenic cylinder and wonders who the hell was in there.

John explains to Paul that he and Steve are hoping that Andrew can help them track down Megan Hathaway. Paul notes that Andrew never mentioned Megan to him and asks if John wants a beer. John encourages Paul not to take it personally that Andrew kept it from him since ISA agents can’t really bring their work home with them. Paul says it’s not like that and reveals that he and Andrew are not really talking about anything.

Steve thinks Andrew has an idea where Megan Hathaway is, so he doesn’t understand why he won’t tell him. Andrew responds that Steve and John don’t have clearance. Steve reminds him how long he and John have been doing the ISA’s dirty work and says he can ask his father. Andrew says that he grew up on the stories and everybody here respects their history. Steve argues that now they are trying to find the woman responsible for the death of their wives and questions why they don’t have clearance. Andrew then reveals that there is a concern that Steve and John have been compromised.

Paul tells John that it’s not like he and Andrew had a falling out like a big fight or anything and they did get along. John questions what happened then since he said they had a lot of chemistry in Hong Kong. Paul explains that they had a great time but then reality set in that Andrew lives in Washington DC while Paul lives in San Francisco and Andrew has a demanding job while Paul is becoming a baseball coach. Paul says that long distance relationships involve a lot of logistics. John mocks the idea that they can’t make adjustments. John tells Paul that he can convince himself that it’s too complicated to be with someone who makes him happy.

Steve questions what Andrew means by saying they were compromised. Andrew brings up that last summer in Hong Kong, Steve and John were Megan’s hired muscle. Steve clarifies that they were brainwashed. Andrew notes that it was pretty effective since they held a whole room hostage and held a gun to Wendy Shin’s head. Steve argues that they were under Megan’s control. Andrew asks how they know that they’re not now and notes that some people in the department are suspicious. Steve complains about having to prove it and asks why Andrew doesn’t believe it. Andrew recalls being there when Paul got through to John and broke Megan’s spell.

Megan understands Kate’s desire to go back to Salem and their lives, but she can’t allow that because phase two is about to begin and her participation is non-negotiable. Kate questions what that even means as she didn’t even know there was a phase one. Megan tells Kate that they don’t need to know as they are just chess pieces on the board and pawns in someone else’s game. Kate asks if John, Roman, and Steve are pawns as well since they believe they are all dead. Megan responds that they believe they are dead because someone took the only thing that could’ve saved their lives. Megan then presents the orchid.

Roman tells Lucas that Kayla and Marlena stopped Megan’s plan and Kate had nothing to do with it, so it looks like Kate died for no good reason and that’s why they have to find Megan and make her pay for what she did. Lucas complains that it won’t bring his mom back. Lucas knows it’s been hard for Roman too, so he asks how he’s doing. Roman says he has a lot of people looking out for him. Roman brings up Abe coming to see him and comparing it to when he lost Lexie. Roman recalls how much time they wasted and how happy he and Kate were when they finally got back together. Roman declares that now he has to face the reality that he will never see Kate again and he’s pretty sure John and Steve feel the same way.

Marlena and Kayla note that the cryogenic chamber they found is powered down and the locks have been released, but there’s no one in it now. Kayla says Megan had to have let whoever it was go. Marlena says she’s no expert but that one looks a lot older. Marlena adds that Megan said she never throws anything away. Kayla recalls that Megan told Steve and John that she was cryogenically frozen after she was presumed dead, so maybe that’s where she was stashed. Marlena asks about the prisms since Megan said she wanted those to help cure someone she cares about and someone they all thought was dead. Marlena wonders who was in the tube. Kayla thinks she knows.

Lucas knows it’s not exactly the same and that he has no right telling this to Roman, but says the way Roman feels about Kate is the same way he feels about Sami. Roman points out that Sami’s not dead. Lucas says he is pretty much dead to her and that she will never forgive him. Lucas adds that he’s never loved anyone the way he loved Sami and he will never have a chance to get her back as he knows he blew that. Lucas knows Sami and Roman will never forgive him so he’s really appreciative that Roman visits him and tells him what’s going on even though he doesn’t deserve it. Roman acknowledges that Lucas is Kate’s son and Kate did forgive and love him. Roman thinks that in a way, them talking to each other like this is a good way to honor Kate’s memory.

Megan tells Kate that the orchid was how she revived her and countered the toxins that Orpheus gave her. Kate calls it weird to think about her life depending on a flower. Megan reveals that she had someone administer the necessary second dose and that is why they are still here. Megan adds that the orchid’s healing power is not restricted to just what ailed them. Megan reveals that she took the orchid because she needed to cure her own condition along with someone who is very dear to her.

Marlena questions if Kayla thinks it was Stefano. Kayla suggests Megan could have kept him on ice and now has the three prisms. Kayla then decides that even if Stefano’s body could have been preserved, he would just be a shell since his spirit was taken from his body and put on a microchip that was inserted in Steve’s head. Kayla adds that she then removed it and then Chad and Tony burned it. Marlena decides that Stefano is gone and dead then. Kayla agrees that he has to be.

Steve tells Andrew that his wife is dead and John’s wife is dead because of Megan, so he questions how they could think they would be helping her. Andrew assures that he doesn’t think that and he wants justice for Kayla just as much. Steve complains that Kayla is gone and the ISA has decided they can’t be trusted with clearance. Steve says they are going to keep looking for Megan and are going to find her whether he helps them or not. Steve tells Andrew to get back to his busy work and to say hello to his dad for him. Steve goes to leave the office but Andrew stops him and pulls up their file on Megan Hathaway. Andrew reveals that because he has clearance, he can view it whenever he wants, he’s just not at liberty to share it with him. Andrew then states that he can offer him a “cup of coffee” from down the hall which might take him three or four minutes. Steve accepts and thanks him as Andrew then exits the office, allowing Steve to take a look at his computer with the file on Megan Hathaway.

John apologizes to Paul and says he shouldn’t have said anything when it’s really none of his business. John then gets a call from Steve, who tells him that he might have a possible location on Megan Hathaway. Steve calls it a long shot while John calls it their only shot right now. Steve asks how fast he can get to the airport.

Marlena tells Kayla that she doesn’t think they have to worry too much about who was in that tube because right now, she thinks Megan has Kate and if so, she thinks things are going to be changing around here soon so they better get out while they still can. Kayla agrees that they need to find a way through the door. Marlena thinks they’re not going to break it down. Kayla says they have to start getting smart about this.

Paul offers to give John a ride to the airport but John says he’s fine. Paul argues that John could get two tickets to where ever he is going that he called his only shot. John calls it a figure of speech. Paul argues that they were just in a heated discussion about his love life and general failing at life and then Steve calls and he’s out of here. Paul says he knows it’s important, urgent, and probably dangerous. Paul tells John to let him help him and come with him. John says no because he and Steve need to do this on their own. Paul asks him to be careful because he doesn’t want to fly halfway around the world to save his ass again. John jokes that he’ll never hear the end of that. John apologizes again for talking to him like he did before and says he didn’t deserve that. Paul understands that it must be frustrating for John to lose Marlena and then see him all alone and not doing anything about it. John says it’s none of his business. Paul acknowledges that John is his dad so he has a point. Paul understands John has enough on his plate without worrying about him. John thanks him and says he has to run. Paul tells him to let him know if he’s okay when he can because he worries about him. John hugs Paul and wishes him luck coaching this weekend. John then exits the apartment.

Roman tells Lucas that he’s going to check in with John and Steve to see if they are having any luck. Lucas asks him to keep him posted which he agrees to do. Roman then exits the prison.

Kate questions Megan saying she had to use the orchid to remedy her own condition. Kate asks if she’s sure she really did that because she’s not looking so great. Megan blames the lighting and insists that she’s fine. Megan reminds Kate that she cured her of dying. Kate asks if she’s expected to thank her. Megan calls Kate her a pain in the ass again which erases any hesitation she had of proceeding which Kate questions. Megan reveals that Kate is going to be her guinea pig for a serum she had made that comes with the condition that what doesn’t make her stronger could kill her. Megan doesn’t see any reason for her to take that risk when she has Kate here to do a trial run on.

Later that evening, Paul sits at home and looks at a photo of Andrew on his phone. Paul thinks back to he and Andrew kissing until there’s a knock at his door. Paul answers the door and is surprised to see Andrew.

John and Steve arrive at their destination and talk about not finding a trace that Megan Hathaway was ever there. Steve notes that the ISA analyst put the odds at 12%. John feels those are not good odds but Steve points out it’s the only lead they’ve got. Steve says the ISA checked it out before but maybe they missed something and asks if John wants to stop. John declares that they are not going to stop until they find Megan and make her pay. John tries the door but it’s locked. Steve asks if John has his lockpick. John says no because he thought Steve was bringing his. Steve reveals that ISA security confiscated it. John asks what he wants to do then.

Kate remains tied up in a chair as Megan returns with the serum. Megan then admits that she’s not yet fully recovered from being dead but she’s told that this serum could be the answer to her prayers. Kate asks why not use it on herself then. Megan says while it might take care of what she needs, it does come with the one off chance of an unpleasant side effect; death. Kate suggests Megan try something homeopathic first then. Megan wants to do a trial run on Kate. Megan says that if it doesn’t kill Kate, it could potentially have extraordinary effects that she’ll thank her for later. Megan adds that if it does happen to kill Kate, maybe someone will bring her back to life again.

Kayla gets a wire off the cryogenic chamber and explains to Marlena how Steve taught her how to pick a lock with a wire. Marlena hopes Steve taught her well as Kayla begins trying to pick the lock of the door.

Steve returns to John with a wire he got off the heating unit around the corner and begins trying to pick the lock on the door.

Kate asks Megan if she can say something before Megan injects her. Megan tells her to make her final last words snappy. Kate says it will be short and just a sentence. Kate declares that the rope on her hands wasn’t tight and calls her a dumb bitch as Kate stands up and knocks Megan out with a punch.

Kayla successfully picks the lock on the door. Kayla goes to open it but hears movement on the other side.

Steve and John pick the lock as well from their end. Steve and John then open the door with their guns raised.

Kayla and Marlena are surprised when the door opens.

Roman goes to the Brady Pub and talks to Kate’s urn about how he misses her and hasn’t heard her voice in awhile. Roman says if there’s a way for her to reach out to him again, he knows she’ll make that happen.

After knocking out Megan, Kate escapes and runs in to Bo Brady!
