Update written by Joseph

Chloe sits outside the Brady Pub with a breakfast biscuit from the Bakery but Xander arrives and smacks it out of her hand, asking what the hell she is thinking and tells her that she can’t eat that.

Brady asks Kristen what is so damn important that she has to tell him. Kristen responds that it actually has to do with her long lost sister Megan Hathaway and her latest partner in crime.

Chad and Stephanie are confronted at the warehouse in Greece by Thomas Banks, who pulls a gun on them and questions what they are doing there. Stephanie responds that they came to find out what he did with Kayla.

Hope asks the cop at the Greece police department if he’s sure that Shane Donovan is not the man who took Steve in to custody. He confirms that it is not and that he had no way of knowing it wasn’t Shane since he showed him his badge and said he wanted to see the evidence from Dr. Rolf’s room. The cop adds that he knows it’s under investigation, so he gave the man the prisms which Hope questions. Hope asks if the man then just walked out of here which the cop confirms. Hope shows another photo and asks if this is the man who was posing as Shane Donovan.

Bo goes to leave the cabin right as Harris arrives at the door and they come face to face. Harris says this can’t be and questions if he is Hope’s late husband. Bo claims not to know what he’s talking about but Harris stops him and says he knows it’s him because he’s seen a lot of pictures. Harris identifies him as Bo Brady.

Chloe asks what the hell is wrong with Xander. Xander repeats that she can’t eat the breakfast biscuit and calls her crazy. Chloe argues that she just bought it this morning and was waiting all day to eat it while running errands and now he ruined it. Xander warns that unless she wants her next errand to be going to the hospital, she will leave those biscuits alone which Chloe questions. Xander realizes she hasn’t heard the news and informs her that someone dosed those biscuits with hallucinogens and are seeing pink elephants or worse. Chloe can’t believe she almost ate that. Xander says it’s good he came by when he did. Chloe asks if they know who laced the biscuits with drugs. Xander says they are still investigating as Chloe calls it a truly evil thing to do. Xander remarks that whoever did it is clearly dangerous. Chloe guesses she can get bagels from the coffee cart but Xander offers to treat her to lunch. Chloe jokes that she must be hallucinating. Xander says he’s a working man now so he can afford it but tells her not to let it get around.

Brady asks Kristen what about Megan Hathaway. Kristen informs him that Megan is now a fellow guest in Statesville and they just started talking to get to know each other better. Brady doesn’t care and asks why this is of utmost importance. Kristen explains that Megan gave her some details on how she avoided being locked up in an ISA prison. Brady responds that he already knows that Megan told the ISA that it was Thomas Banks who kidnapped her mother. Kristen states that she’s not so sure it was him.

Bo tells Harris that he’s heard about him too. Harris questions Bo knowing who he is. Bo reveals they have a mutual acquaintance in Megan Hathaway, who is extremely proud of how she orchestrated the descent of Harris. Bo recalls Megan saying Harris was a navy seal turned in to a simple hired gun and mentions Hope.

Hope tells the cop that she has reason to believe Thomas Banks is involved in all of this but the cop assures it was not him. Hope asks the cop to describe the man to her in detail then.

Xander and Chloe have lunch in the Brady Pub. Xander jokes that this is better than a crusty old breakfast biscuit. Chloe says the chowder is delicious and thanks him. Xander brings up that they are back where Chloe bested him at darts so he wants a rematch. Chloe talks about researching dart techniques and asks if he’s sure he’d like a rematch.

Thomas Banks tells Stephanie to be more specific because she knows a lot of mothers. Chad questions Thomas playing a game. Stephanie tells Thomas that the woman kidnapped is her mother, Kayla Johnson, and demands he tell them where he took her. Thomas responds that he’s sorry to disappoint but they got the wrong dude.

Brady questions Kristen saying she doesn’t think it was Thomas Banks that kidnapped Kayla. Kristen responds that based on what Megan was saying, she thinks it’s possible it could be someone else. Kristen flashes back to asking Megan if Bo Brady is alive. Kristen tells Brady that she will tell him when he brings Rachel to see her. Brady questions if that’s what this is all about and says he should’ve known. Kristen argues that he can’t blame her for using this information to her advantage. Brady argues that he’s never had a reason to trust her. Kristen insists that he’s really going to want to hear this and so will everyone in Salem because this news is so explosive that it will change a lot of peoples’ lives. Brady responds that he’ll think about it and hangs up.

The cop doesn’t know how helpful his description will be and says their sketch artist is working in another town. Hope asks him for anything and asks if the man had any distinctive features. He calls him a pretty average looking guy, middle-aged with brown hair, brown eyes, and a medium build. He asks if that sounds like anyone she knows.

Harris says if Bo heard about him from Megan, maybe she had something to do with bringing Bo back. Harris recalls someone else being in the lab in the cryogenic tube but he never knew it was, but what Megan wanted most was the three prisms and that’s why she programmed him. Harris adds that she never told him what the prisms were for but he knows they could be used for medical miracles and now it all makes sense. Harris states that Megan wanted to use the prisms to revive somebody she loved and that was Bo.

Chloe and Xander play darts. Chloe gets another bullseye and Xander can’t believe it. Chloe jokes with him and decides she’ll give him a handicap by throwing the next one with her eyes closed. Chloe does so, but ends up accidentally hitting Xander with the dart.

Chad informs Thomas Banks that his boss Megan already told them that he kidnapped Kayla. Thomas responds that no one is the boss of him and he’s an independent contractor. Thomas reveals that he followed them and calls it no coincidence that they are all here. Thomas says that he saw them in the hotel lobby and knew they would take him to where he needed to be. Thomas says to give him the list. Chad claims to not know anything about a list while Thomas asks who is playing games now. Thomas says he saw them talking about all the places where Kayla could be and demands the list now while holding them at gunpoint.

Hope tells the cop that she saw dozens of men that fit his description as he described half the population of Greece. The cop repeats that their sketch artist is working in another town but he can call him. Hope asks for the security camera footage so the cop pulls up the file.

Bo comments on the narrative Harris strung together. Harris explains that he actually heard it from Hope, who told him how obsessed Megan was with Bo. Bo responds that those feelings were not mutual and one of the many reasons that he left the island. Harris asks if Bo brought Kayla with him. Bo asks why he would do that. Harris points out that Kayla is his sister. Bo responds that the rumor he heard is that some character named Banks kidnapped Kayla. Harris questions Bo not seeming to care about his sister. Bo says that Kayla is tough and knows how to take care of herself. Harris questions Bo and Kayla both being on the island at the same time and coincidentally leaving the island around that time but not being together. Bo claims he didn’t even know Kayla was on the island or why Megan brought her there. Bo declares that he was just fed up with Megan’s games so he took off as fast as he could alone. Harris says he understands but he came all this way to find Kayla and if Bo has nothing to hide, he asks to take a look around but Bo stops him and pulls his gun on him.

Chloe panics about hitting Xander with the dart and asks if he’s okay. Chloe worries about pulling the dart out of his chest and questions what to do. Xander guesses they are heading to the hospital after all.

Megan returns to the visiting room and tells Kristen that she’s all settled in after having to evict her cellmate from the bottom bunk. Kristen jokes about Megan making friends. Megan asks her how Brady is. Kristen asks what she means. Megan reveals that she overheard Kristen’s chat just now. Kristen tries to explain while Megan says she was thinking that they were beginning a new sisterhood but as soon as she turned her back, Kristen is talking to Brady about her and Bo Brady being alive. Kristen apologizes for betraying some sisterly confidence but admits the only thing that matters to her is her daughter, so she will play any card she has to get a chance to see her. Megan says she understands but the problem is, Kristen is not holding any cards as she never said Bo Brady was alive.

Bo tells Harris that it was nice meeting him but they are done here and tells him to run along home. Harris asks if Bo is really going to shoot him if he doesn’t. Bo remarks that killing a military hero would be bad karma and tells Harris to just run along home. Harris threatens to go tell Hope what happened. Bo asks why he would do that. Harris argues that Bo knows damn well that Hope is in love with him and now she could know he’s alive. Bo questions this being a selfless act since telling Hope that he’s alive will end their budding romance. Bo asks if Harris is ready to lose Hope.

Hope and the cop find that the security footage is all gone and been erased. Hope questions who else had access to the security footage and thinks someone did it deliberately. Hope asks more about the man who left with Steve in hopes of finding a clue of who he is. The cop recalls that Steve did say something. Hope asks him to please tell her what he said.

Thomas Banks demands the list and warns them not to piss him off. Chad tells Stephanie to do what he says. Stephanie says the list is in her purse. Chad tells Thomas that he wanted to offer his condolences on his sister passing away a few months ago. Thomas thinks he means Sister Mary Moira but Chad clarifies that he means his other sister Susan. Thomas questions what happened. Chad calls it a very tragic car accident that exploded over a cliff. Thomas calls that mean and says Susan was a good girl who didn’t deserve that. Thomas says he always thought he wasn’t all bad because Susan was his sister. Thomas admits that makes him sad and starts to get emotional so Chad offers a napkin but then throws it in his face and grabs him. They struggle over the gun until it goes off.

Chloe checks on Xander in the hospital after the doctor finishes bandaging him up. Xander tells her that he’s fine and just pierced a muscle. Xander jokes about her not being the best dart player. Xander wonders if this is some kind of retaliation for when he kissed her last night. Chloe admits she was annoyed by that but doesn’t think it called for a violent retaliation as long as he promises to never do it again.

Megan questions why Kristen would sell any information she did have so cheaply for one visit with her daughter. Kristen repeats that her daughter means everything to her. Megan gets it but argues that Kristen thinks too small. Megan advises Kristen to look at the big picture. Megan talks about going through a great deal of trouble to make sure she was incarcerated here. Megan warns that if Kristen even suggests that she stretched the truth, they will ship her to some black site which won’t help her either. Megan encourages that there’s no limit to what they can accomplish here if they work together. Megan tells Kristen that she has no intention of staying here one minute longer than she has to and she’s already started formulating a plan. Megan asks Kristen what sounds better; one measly visit with her daughter or spending the rest of her life with her daughter outside? Megan tells Kristen to ponder over that before making the biggest mistake of her life. Megan asks who would believe Kristen anyway when everybody knows Bo Brady is dead, so she asks how could a dead man kidnap his sister. Megan remarks that being a criminal mastermind is exhausting so she needs a nap. Megan tells Kristen that she will see her around and heads back to her cell.

Thomas screams in pain as he is shot in the ear and Chad takes the gun, shouting that he should’ve listened to reason. Chad tells Thomas that they will patch him up on the way to the police station.

The cop reveals to Hope that Steve said the man claiming to be Shane Donovan was not who he said he was. Hope questions him ignoring that. The cop explains that the man had said Steve was the actual con artist. Hope asks if Steve said anything else. The cop remembers Steve mumbling something as he was dragged out but he can’t remember what it was. Hope thanks him and says to call her if he remembers anything else. Hope leaves her number and then exits the station.

Harris tells Bo that he’s not sure he understands this, questioning Bo wanting him to be with Hope. Bo explains that he’s starting a whole new life without Hope and he’s sick of people trying to drag him back to that whole life. Harris asks if he’s just going to let him go if he doesn’t say anything about finding him. Bo insists that it’s best for both of them and for Hope too since she started a whole new life and moved on with Harris. Bo says they have a good thing going so he asks why break her heart again. Bo tells Harris that Hope is all his, so Harris gets the girl and Bo gets his new life as long as he keeps this conversation between them. Harris questions pretending he never saw him, deceiving Hope, and letting her believe that her husband is dead. Bo argues that he’s not really deceiving her since from his point of view, that husband is dead. Bo asks Harris if they have a deal.

Xander tells Chloe that he should probably make an appearance at the paper and jokes about wanting another rematch when he’s healed. Chloe is impressed that he’d be willing to come near her ever again with a dart. Xander jokes that she may be dangerous and scary, but she makes up for it in charm.

Brady goes to the prison which surprises Kristen. Brady says he came to see this supposedly explosive piece of information that she uncovered. Brady asks what the big news is that’s going to change everybody’s lives in Salem. Kristen claims that it turns out she was wrong and that Megan was telling the truth that Thomas Banks was the one who kidnapped Kayla. Megan listens from outside the room and smiles.

Chad and Stephanie bring Thomas Banks to the police department in Greece. Chad tells the cop that he’s going to want to book him as he’s on the most wanted list. The cop recognizes Thomas from seeing his picture earlier and calls him even uglier in person which Thomas calls not nice.

Harris returns to his room where Hope shows up at his door. Harris asks if she had any luck at the police station. Hope says only the bad kind as someone posed as Shane Donovan and took Steve and the prisms. Harris asks if there’s any idea who. Hope says no as the description was vague and someone erased the security footage. Harris questions how that even happens. Hope thinks whoever kidnapped Steve erased it and was a real pro. Hope complains about the cop not even questioning the man and just letting him walk out with Steve and the prisms. Hope asks if Harris had any luck. Harris responds that he started on the list and went to Victor Kiriakis’ childhood home. Hope asks if he found anything. Harris thinks back to his conversation with Bo where they agreed on the deal to not tell Hope about him. Harris then lies to Hope and tells her that he found nothing at all and the place was deserted.

Update written by Joseph

Marlena returns to her office at the hospital. She sits at her desk and declares she’s back in business. Alex then arrives and asks if she has a minute. Marlena calls it a nice surprise and invites him in.

Kristen calls Brady from prison, but he does not accept the call. Kristen screams in frustration until she is greeted by new prisoner, her half sister, Megan Hathaway.

Hope goes to see Harris and tells him that no one saw Steve come in, so now she’s starting to worry that something has happened to him.

Steve pounds on the door of the wine cellar while screaming for Bo to open the door. Kayla tells Steve that Bo won’t suddenly come to his senses and let them out. Steve declares that they will have to find themselves out of here.

Chad and Stephanie arrive in Greece. Stephanie calls Steve and leaves a message, saying she’s starting to worry because she hasn’t heard from him so she hopes to hear from him soon. Stephanie tells Chad that it’s been two days and worries about something happening to her father too. Chad tells her that she can’t think that way and they are here now, so they will find him.

Bo has Steve’s phone and listens to Stephanie’s message on his voicemail.

John comes home with flowers for Marlena. Brady informs John that Marlena isn’t home. John knows that Marlena went back to work but he thinks it’s a little bit soon. Brady points out that Marlena has been seeing patients on the couch ever since she returned, so he thinks she’s ready which John agrees with. Brady brings up Marlena hypnotizing Stephanie and Stephanie remembering Kayla saying something about Victor. Brady questions what that is all about. John explains that Victor is out of town but Chad and Stephanie talked to him on the phone and he said he knew nothing about Kayla’s kidnapping. John adds that Maggie gave a list of Victor’s properties in Greece so Chad and Stephanie flew there to check them out. Brady asks if John thinks Victor is telling the truth. John says he’d like to think so, but he’s been wrong about him before. Brady hopes Chad and Stephanie are not walking in to some kind of trap. John says he’d feel a lot better if Steve hadn’t gone off the grid but they have no idea where he is. John would love to be on the search but he can’t bring himself to be away from Marlena so soon after getting her back.

Marlena tells Alex that they haven’t formally met. Alex tells her it’s great having her back as he knows how much she means to so many people. Marlena feels lucky to be back with the people she loves. Alex hopes it’s not a bad time. Marlena says she’s not seeing patients today and was just catching up on paper work but she invites him to have a seat and asks what she can do for him. Alex brings up Stephanie being in Greece, looking for her mom who is alive. Alex wondered if Marlena had any news about her since she is so close to the situation. Marlena says she hasn’t heard anything new. Marlena asks if Alex knew Kayla. Alex says not really, but he hopes to God they find her because that could mean his redemption.

Hope complains about calling and texting but then she gets a text from Steve’s phone, that says sorry for not being in touch and that Stephanie arrived in Greece, so he’s trying to calm her down. Harris says that’s one problem solved while Hope is relieved that Steve is okay.

Bo turns off Steve’s phone after sending the text.

Kristen and Megan meet one another which each calling the other infamous. Megan remarks that despite different last names, they are undeniably family. Kristen comments on Megan being dead ten years before she ever came to Salem. Megan credits a cryogenic chamber. Kristen mentions hearing that she was apprehended on an island off Greece. Megan comments that news travels fast. Kristen questions what she’s doing in Salem. Megan explains that she cut a deal with the ISA so that she could be incarcerated here. Kristen questions why the ISA would even consider giving her a deal after everything she has done. Megan responds that they were desperate to find Kayla and she told the feds that her former associate, Thomas Banks, was the one who took her. Kristen calls Thomas a disgusting little creep and brings up Thomas masquerading as her before.

Chad and Stephanie talk about going through Victor’s properties and hopefully find Kayla. They take their bags to their hotel room as someone watches them.

Alex explains to Marlena that he had no idea that Kayla was dying when he turned Stephanie’s phone off and he just wanted quality time with his girl, but he knows that it was his fault that she didn’t have the opportunity to say goodbye to her mother and she had every right to be, but that’s why they broke up and now she’s with Chad. Alex says when he heard about Kayla being alive, he realized that maybe he didn’t rob Stephanie of her last moments with her mother after all. Alex knows they still have to find her or else he will live with this guilty conscience forever.

Hope sends a text back to Steve’s phone that they will continue to look for Thomas today and keep him updated. Hope says it’s too bad they didn’t accomplish much last night but Harris points out that they did have fun, especially with their dance. Harris and Hope kiss until there’s a knock at the door. Harris goes to get dressed while Hope answers the door to see Chad and Stephanie.

Kristen questions Megan as to why Thomas Banks would kidnap Kayla. Kristen then asks if she ordered it. Megan asks why she would do that when Kayla is of no use to her now. Kristen asks what Megan was planning to do with her with Dr. Rolf. Megan explains that Kayla, Marlena, and Kate were going to be Dr. Rolf’s human guinea pigs and it would’ve been a monumental scientific breakthrough for all of humanity. Kristen guesses she was mostly interested in what it would do for her. Kristen asks why Kate had to bite the bullet and not Marlena. Megan says it was not her choice and that one of her employees went a bit rogue. Kristen says it had to have been Thomas since they didn’t find anyone else on the island but Dr. Rolf. Megan questions where she gets all this information. Kristen responds that she’s aware of everything that concerns her family. Kristen says that Megan threw Thomas under the bus and that’s a major breach of DiMera loyalty. Megan explains that she had to give the ISA a name and they knew that Thomas had been one of her hired guns. Kristen questions why she lied and for whom. Kristen asks if Thomas didn’t take Kayla, who did?

Bo returns to the wine cellar, mentioning that his gun is just an insurance policy. Kayla questions where he was. Bo claims he was fishing and he made them some stew. Kayla complains about him holding them hostage. Bo says they had to eat. Kayla asks why Steve is here. Bo says he got in his way. Steve brings up Hope and asks why he doesn’t want to see her. Bo recalls that Hope hated and misunderstood why he grew to love and admire his father, so there’s no reason to have Hope in his life. Steve calls that a lie and says Hope understands him too well, so he’s afraid that she will break through to him which scares the hell out of him. Bo decides that’s enough talk. Bo argues that Kayla said she would get information off the prisms. Kayla clarifies that she thought that. Bo warns that the clock is ticking. Bo reveals that Stephanie has found her way to Greece which shocks Steve. Bo says it’s only a matter of time before Stephanie or Hope find out that they are missing. Bo warns about either of them getting in his way. Steve then grabs Bo and they struggle over his gun while Kayla tries to intervene.

Brady asks how John could say it’s irrational as he understands John wants Marlena by his side every second because she’s the love of his life. Brady says everyone is happy for John and adds that he’s envious of him. Brady mentions his relationship with Chloe. John knows the pain of when things go wrong and that Marlena told him it’s rough right now with Chloe and Rachel. Brady says that what makes him so infuriated is that Kristen manipulated the whole situation to her advantage and succeeded at making Rachel hate Chloe, so he has no clue how to fix it.

Megan says she never denied that Thomas took Kayla. Kristen points out that she never confirmed it either and asks why she doesn’t just tell her the truth. Megan questions why she would, pointing out that she doesn’t know her. Kristen brings up sisterly bonding. Megan talks about never having a sister. Kristen says the same but notes that she has so many brothers. Megan says she doesn’t know them either. Kristen calls it obvious that Megan hasn’t talked to anyone in decades other than misfits, hostages, and dead people. Kristen encourages Megan to confide in someone normal, that she’s related to. Kristen jokes that they can be sisters in crime. Megan admits that they have one thing in common; a desire to get out of prison. Kristen suggests she scratch her back and Megan scratch hers.

Marlena says that Alex’s urgency to find news about Kayla seems to be about more than his guilty conscience. Alex says of course he wants Kayla to be alive, mentioning that she’s a respected doctor and so many people love her, just like Marlena. Marlena questions if he came all the way over just to say what a wonderful doctor she and Kayla are. Alex doesn’t know what she’s getting at. Marlena feels that Stephanie broke up with him because she felt that he had cost her the last moment she would have had with her mother and now that her mother is alive, she wonders if Alex is thinking he has a second chance with Stephanie.

Hope invites Chad and Stephanie in, asking where Steve is. Stephanie responds that they don’t know. Chad says they went to his room and he wasn’t there. Hope introduces Chad and Stephanie to Harris Michaels. Stephanie responds that she knows who Harris is and brings up how he delivered pizzas to them in Seattle when one of them blew up in her face. Harris apologizes and says he can’t tell her how much he regrets his actions during that time. Stephanie mentions ending up in the hospital but recovering quickly. Harris hopes she can accept his apology. Stephanie understands that he wasn’t himself and that Steve went through something similar awhile back, so she accepts his apology, especially because he’s helping look for her mom. Harris is grateful for her understanding. Stephanie states that now she’s worried about her dad. Hope mentions that Steve just texted them that he was with her. Stephanie argues that he isn’t and they haven’t heard from him since before they left Salem. Stephanie worries that Steve is in trouble.

Bo fights off Steve and warns him not to pull that crap again. Steve dares Bo to pull the trigger and argues that he’s had plenty of chances to kill him but hasn’t done it yet. Bo warns that it can be arranged. Steve yells at Bo to pull the trigger, so he does.

Alex thanks Marlena and wants to pay her for a session. Marlena says no but Alex says she deserves to be compensated for helping him. Marlena says it just feels good to be working. Marlena then points out that Alex didn’t answer her question. Alex guesses he hasn’t thought much about getting back with Stephanie, maybe because he may seem confident, Stephanie was the only woman that he truly loved and being rejected by her was really painful. Alex guesses maybe he’s just afraid of getting hurt again. Marlena understands he’s feeling vulnerable because he has very deep feelings for Stephanie which he admits. Alex guesses this discussion is just bringing his subconscious thoughts to the surface. Marlena says that’s how therapy works. Alex realizes that part of him is hoping that if they do find Kayla, maybe Stephanie will be able to get past what happened and they could be together again.

Hope tries calling Steve but it goes straight to voicemail. Hope worries that it’s possible that someone else has Steve’s phone. Stephanie worries that he’s not okay. Chad asks when they last saw him. Harris says they split up yesterday and Steve went to the police station to look at Dr. Rolf’s belongings for any clues on where Kayla is. Hope notes that they haven’t seen him since then. Harris decides they should go to the police station as right now, it’s the only lead they have. Chad stops him and says it’s not the only lead.

Bo pulled the trigger and shot a bottle of wine. Bo blames Steve for making him do that and wasting a bottle but Kayla argues that this is on Bo because he’s trying to be someone that he’s not. Bo responds that he’s not Shawn’s son who never fit in and remarks that he was never a Brady. Kayla argues that he was and still is. Steve adds that if Bo thinks it’s better to be a Kiriakis, he’s a fool. Bo asks if Steve keeps pushing him because he doesn’t think he’s capable of killing. Bo then brings up that he put a bullet in Kate. Kayla shouts that Bo doesn’t need to do any of this and what he’s thinking and feeling is because of what Megan did to him. Steve adds that Megan has been captured and is in prison as they speak. Steve questions if Bo is going to let Megan control him from an ocean away.

Megan says if they are sharing secrets, she wants Kristen to start. Kristen decides that if Megan doesn’t want to tell her who has Kayla, she will figure it out on her own. Kristen questions Megan just giving up Thomas Banks and argues that whoever took Kayla is someone she is protecting and someone she cares about. Kristen states that as she knows, Megan never cared about anyone in her entire life other than maybe Stefano and Bo but they are both dead. Megan remarks on Bo dying of a brain tumor, just like she was dead before they dumped her in a hot tub and fried to her a crisp, yet here she sits before her. Kristen asks if Megan is saying that Bo Brady is alive.

Chad shows Harris the list of Victor’s properties in Greece. Stephanie points out that they don’t know if Kayla is actually in any of those properties while Chad encourages her to stay positive as they just have to start looking. Harris suggests they split up. Hope agrees and decides she will go to the police station since she’s been working with the ISA, so they will talk to her. Hope tells Stephanie and Chad to stick together. Chad splits the list of properties and hands one to Harris as he and Stephanie exit together. Harris advises Hope to be careful too. Hope responds that she’s going to the police station, the safest place in town, but Harris points out that Steve possibly disappeared from there. Hope says that’s what she is going to find out. Hope thanks Harris for helping her family. Harris responds that she gave him his life back, so he just hopes that he can return the favor as they then exit.

Alex tells Marlena that he always mocked the whole getting in touch with your feelings thing, but admits it’s really helping which Marlena is glad to hear. Alex asks if she thinks he needs therapy. Marlena responds that therapy is what she does, so she thinks everybody can be helped in therapy. Alex says he’s always thought he doesn’t need it as talking about his feelings and emotions is not really his vibe. Marlena asks if he’s changed his mind. Alex admits this did help a lot right now, but it didn’t change his mind as he doesn’t think he wants to continue. Alex declares that he’s fine. Marlena says if he does change his mind again, he can call her and hands him her card. Alex thanks her and says he appreciates that. Alex adds that it was great meeting the famous Dr. Evans as he then exits her office.

Brady tells John that Marlena said she would keep working with Rachel as far as talking things through. Brady adds that Marlena is really the only mother figure that Rachel has right now. John says they really adore her and asks if he’s taken Rachel to see Kristen lately. Brady says no and that Rachel’s only time seeing her lately was her solo trip to the prison. Brady admits that Kristen’s been hounding him but he doesn’t want Kristen poisoning Rachel’s mind any further. Brady mentions that he just declined Kristen’s call a little while ago. John questions him thinking it’s okay to freeze her out. John warns that if Rachel thinks he’s keeping her from seeing her mother, she’s going to dig in even more. John says as much as they wish it wasn’t true, in this case, there’s a strong bond between mother and daughter that he’s not sure can be broken.

Megan tells Kristen that they may be sisters but it does take time to trust someone. Kristen questions what she is getting at. Megan responds that she’s just not quite ready to play true confessions. Megan decides it’s time to get settled in to her new home because it looks like she’s going to be here for awhile, theoretically at least. Megan then leaves the visiting area.

Bo declares that no one controls him and that Megan just opened him up to who he really is. Kayla argues that this is not him. Bo asks what he has to show for the pansy that she says he was. Steve and Kayla bring up Bo’s children and grandchildren. Steve reveals that Ciara is pregnant so Bo has another grandchild on the way. Kayla calls that wonderful news and a blessing. Bo says that makes what he’s doing that much more important because he’s going to build an empire like his father. Steve argues that his kids want him, not some Kiriakis wanna be. Kayla repeats that what the Bradys lacked in wealth, they made up for with how much they loved each other. Kayla tells Bo that is more valuable than numbers in a bank. Bo complains that they are wasting his time as this is happening whether they like it or not. Bo tells Kayla to get back to work. Kayla argues that she needs equipment and supplies. Bo accuses her of stalling. Kayla insists that she needs a lab. Bo reluctantly agrees to get what she needs and exits the cellar.

Stephanie warns Chad that this could be dangerous. Chad says they knew that when they came. Stephanie doesn’t think she should be dragging him in to this when he has kids to worry about. Chad assures that nothing is stopping him and he’s not letting her do this alone. Chad declares they will be fine as they have each other. They exit the hotel as someone remains watching them.

John goes to Marlena’s office and brings her flowers. John asks how her first day back is. Marlena responds that it’s been pretty busy. Marlena then gets a call from Alex, who decides he would like to make an appointment.

Brady gets another call from prison and this time he reluctantly accepts. Brady answers and asks what Kristen wants. Kristen says she wants to relay something to him of the utmost importance.

Steve asks Kayla if she’s okay. Kayla says she’s not and complains that Bo could have shot Steve, so she questions why he baited him like that. Steve says he was proving a point. Steve says that Bo didn’t shoot him and won’t. Kayla worries that he could have and now Stephanie is here. Steve argues that if Bo couldn’t hurt him, he won’t hurt his own niece, and declares that Bo is not as dangerous as he pretends to be. Steve tells Kayla that Hope and Harris have to be wondering where he is now, so Hope is going to follow the bread crumbs and they are going to find them.

Chad and Stephanie go to a warehouse which Chad notes is huge with a lot of place for someone to be sulking around. They are then startled by a noise behind them.

Hope goes to the Greek police station and introduces herself as from the ISA. Hope informs the cop that she’s looking for a colleague who was there yesterday named Steve Johnson. The cop says it doesn’t sound familiar and asks for a description. Hope then shows him a photo of Steve which the cop recognizes and tells her that the Director of the ISA said he was an impostor and took him in to custody. Hope questions that and shows him a picture of Shane Donovan but the cop says that’s not him. Hope says that’s Shane, so she questions who is the man who took Steve in to custody.

Rafe questions Sloan not knocking. Sloan remarks that if they wanted to be alone, he should’ve locked the door. Jada tells Sloan that it’s not what it looks like. Sloan says what it looks like is that the police commissioner was coming onto Jada and she’s not happy about it. Sloan warns that Rafe just committed a very serious crime. Rafe mocks Sloan and argues that he’s innocent but slurs his words. Rafe asks what Sloan wants. Sloan reminds Rafe that she was summoned here after Jada raided her home. Sloan adds that she brought her phone as asked. Jada says she’ll have a team examine it right away.

Johnny tells her not to be so mad and says she can totally come to the wedding and even go on a date after if it’s cool with Chanel. Wendy hopes he’s joking. Wendy brings up that Allie warned her about how badly Johnny treated women but she didn’t believe her. Johnny complains about Allie being such a hater.

Gabi tells Li as if he’s Stefan that she wants him so bad and she can’t wait any longer so they start kissing on the bed until Li stops and says he can’t do this. Li assures that he wants her but not like this. Gabi doesn’t understand and asks what the problem is. Li shouts that the problem is he’s not Stefan.

Stefan asks where Gabi is. Melinda questions if this is some kind of game. Stefan asks what she did with Gabi. Melinda shouts that she didn’t do anything. Stefan says that Gabi was there and then she turned in to Melinda. Melinda asks if Stefan was just pretending she was Gabi. Stefan insists that Gabi was there.

Melinda then suddenly vomits and says she thinks she needs a doctor.

Li tells Gabi that he’s not Stefan and what she’s seeing isn’t real. Gabi tells him not to push her away and says she already knows Li found out so they don’t have to sneak around and lie. Gabi says she will lose his DiMera shares but now they are free to show the world how they feel and that’s what matters now. Li confirms that EJ sent him a picture of Gabi and Stefan having sex in the DiMera wine cellar. Li reiterates to Gabi that he is not her ex-husband, he is her current husband who is a pathetic excuse for a man who was so desperate to hang on to her that he almost ended up in prison. Li adds that he still didn’t get the hint and deluded himself in to thinking he could win her back. Gabi then realizes he is Li and questions what’s going on. Li says she’s been hallucinating and asks if she took something. Gabi says she would never do drugs. Li says that someone clearly drugged her. Gabi then stops and vomits right in front of Li.

Rafe continues hallucinating and imagines Sloan as Duke the teddy bear and hugs her, leaving Sloan and Jada confused. Rafe talks about how he’s missed Duke but says he shouldn’t be here right now because he and Nicole are over and he was trying to get busy with Jada until the blonde witch showed up. Rafe continues to imagine Duke and then questions why the room is spinning. Rafe then collapses to the floor and Jada checks on him.

Eric and Nicole start kissing and talking about how much they want each other. Nicole stops and asks about Sloan. Eric says that she ended things because he had trouble believing that she wasn’t stalking Paulina and Chanel. Eric then asks about Nicole and EJ. Nicole complains that EJ is so boring and only wants to plot against his brother while being with Eric is so much more fun and they kiss onto the bed.

Johnny and Chanel sit together in the town square. Johnny talks about being bummed that Wendy dumped him. Johnny says he can see why since he’s marrying Chanel but he’s surprised it was a deal breaker. Talia comes over, so Johnny introduces himself to her as Chanel’s once and future husband. Johnny adds that Talia is the first person they’ve told other than Wendy eavesdropping. Talia questions them getting married. Chanel says maybe while Johnny argues that she said yes. Chanel says she’s not sure why she said that. Johnny asks if she’s saying she doesn’t want to be his first and second wife. Chanel says she thinks so. Johnny asks if the honeymoon is off too. Chanel says she’s sorry. Johnny guesses he should probably get home. Chanel mentions that she should get back to work. Johnny asks for some more biscuits since he got dumped twice in one day. Johnny then decides he’s going to go home and take a nap as he walks off. Talia questions Chanel as to what that was all about.

Eric and Nicole lay in bed together after having sex. Nicole asks what they just did. Sloan then knocks on the door, calling for Eric to open up. Eric tells Nicole to be quiet and maybe she’ll go away. Sloan calls for Eric to open up because they need to talk. Nicole doesn’t think she’s going away. Eric then covers himself with a pillow and answers the door, claiming he was just getting dressed. Sloan says she came to apologize for overreacting since she did tell him that she was still planning on getting revenge on Paulina and Chanel. Sloan says she’s not guilty of what they are accusing her of but it makes total sense why he’d be suspicious. Eric says it’s no big deal and asks if that’s all. Sloan asks if he’s going to invite her in and questions since when he’s ever been nervous about her watching him get dressed. Eric says he’ll call her later but Sloan pushes her way in and finds Nicole in Eric’s bed.

Jada paces at the hospital, hoping that Rafe will be okay. Stefan arrives and tells Jada that he needs to speak with her. Jada says it’s not a good time but Stefan says he needs to report two attempted murders. Jada says she’s listening. Stefan informs Jada that EJ poisoned him and Melinda, so he needs to be arrested. Jada asks if he has proof. Stefan says no, but he’s pretty sure that EJ poisoned the breakfast biscuits they ate. Jada questions him saying breakfast biscuits. Stefan explains that Nicole picked them up from Sweet Bits Bakery, he and Melinda ate them and started hallucinating. Stefan adds that Melinda is in the ER right now. Jada informs Stefan that EJ may not be the one responsible for this. Gabi and Li arrive at the hospital. Gabi rushes up to Stefan, who questions what happened to her. Li says that’s what they are here to find out as Stefan hugs Gabi and tells her that everything is going to be okay.

Talia and Chanel go to the Bakery where Talia gives her a glass of water and asks if she’s feeling any better. Chanel says she doesn’t know what happened before with Johnny. Talia questions Johnny really asking her to marry him. Chanel questions saying yes and says that he was just so excited and she got caught up in the moment. Chanel guesses it was a temporary moment of insanity. Jada arrives. Talia asks if she got sent on a donut run. Jada reveals she’s actually here to investigate a crime. Chanel asks if something happened to Paulina. Jada assures that she’s fine, but Rafe and Melinda are both in the hospital, suffering from hallucinations. They call that awful while Talia asks what that has to do with the Bakery. Jada explains that they both had the breakfast biscuits that they purchased this morning, so there must have been something in them. Chanel argues that half the town had those biscuits and asks if there’s any other reports of people getting sick. Jada says not yet, but if they really sold that many, it’s likely they will. Talia worries that this could ruin Chanel’s business. Jada says one step at a time. Jada asks if it’s possible someone may have spiked those biscuits. Chanel responds that she knows exactly who it was.

Sloan tells Eric that was fast. Eric says this isn’t what it looks like. Sloan complains about people saying that to her today. Eric says he doesn’t know how this happened. Nicole talks about how Eric was going to take pictures of her. Eric doesn’t think that ever happened. Sloan asks if they are trying to convince her that they didn’t have sex. Eric assures that they definitely had sex. Eric and Nicole then talk about seeing the other dressed as a priest and in a bikini. Sloan questions them seeing things that aren’t there and thinking things are something else. Eric says exactly while Sloan points out that they ended up in bed together but both don’t know how it happened. Sloan declares that it sounds to her like they were drugged.

Chanel tells Jada that it had to be Sloan because she leaked the story about her to the Spectator and now she’s coming after her. Jada asks how Sloan would know Chanel was the source. Chanel admits she told her yesterday and they got in to it physically. Talia mentions getting there to break it up, but not before Sloan drew blood. Chanel calls Sloan a total psycho which is what the headline in Leo’s column said. Chanel says that cost Sloan business so now Sloan is costing her business. Jada brings up that Sloan was at the police station when Rafe passed out and seemed just as shocked as she was. Chanel argues that Sloan was clearly putting on an act. Chanel wonders if that’s what happened to Johnny since they were acting really weird earlier and they both had the biscuits. Chanel argues that this has Sloan written all over it and questions who else would do something this twisted. Talia then has a flashback to herself that reveals she was actually the one who drugged the biscuits. Jada then tells them that whether Sloan is involved or not, she is going to make it top priority to find out who has been drugging the citizens of Salem and she’s going to bring them to justice…

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

After Chanel and Talia leave the Bakery together, someone sneaks in and pours something in to a bowl of dough to tamper with their product.

The next morning, Chanel and Talia are at the bakery putting out biscuit samples and talk about all the customers they’ve had. Talia hopes they can keep up with the demand. Chanel declares that with Talia on board, Sweet Bits Bakery will be more successful than ever.

Eric goes to Sloan’s apartment with breakfast for them. Sloan questions Eric not being there when she woke up. Eric says he didn’t want to wake her so he went to get them breakfast. Sloan calls it sweet of him but then sees that he went to Chanel’s bakery to get it and questions what the hell is wrong with him.

Nicole brings EJ breakfast from Sweet Bits Bakery at the DiMera Mansion. Nicole tells him to show the proper gratitude first, so they kiss until Johnny walks in. EJ says good morning but Johnny says it’s not a good one for him because he didn’t sleep at all. Johnny mentions the loud noises from down the hall that sounded like wild animals. EJ informs Johnny that the noise wasn’t coming from his room but from Stefan’s. Johnny is surprised and questions if Stefan and Gabi are back together but EJ reveals it was not Gabi, it was Melinda Trask.

Stefan comes out of the shower and questions what Melinda is doing and why she is undressed in the bed. Melinda responds that she knows he just showered but she wondered if he would want to get dirty again in the dirtiest way possible.

Li is at home, looking at the photo that EJ sent him of Gabi and Stefan in bed. Gabi comes out from her room and questions where breakfast is as she admits she had begun looking forward to Li’s breakfasts. Li guesses he wasn’t in the mood. Gabi asks if something is wrong. Li claims that his father has been texting him non stop about an issue he has to deal with, so she’s on her own for breakfast. Gabi decides she will go out then. Gabi tells Li to tell his father that she says hello and that she looks forward to being a major DiMera shareholder again in about four months. Li stops Gabi and points out that she never told him about her dinner meeting from last night. Li guesses it ended with everyone feeling satisfied. Gabi thinks back to being with Stefan last night. Gabi remarks that satisfied doesn’t begin to describe it as everything just flowed the way it’s supposed to. Gabi then says she’s starving so she’ll see him later and exits the apartment. Li smashes his phone against the wall and screams “damn her” as Wendy comes out from her room.

Melinda tells Stefan that he can’t blame a girl for trying and points out that this is the second night she’s been here screaming his name and she has nothing to show for it. Stefan offers to have Harold bring her some tea. Stefan tells Melinda how grateful he is to her for helping him out and assures it will all be over soon. Stefan promises to repay her. Melinda assumes he means platonically and says she gets that Stefan and Gabi have an everlasting love. Melinda says she doesn’t begrudge them but questions how long he plans on dragging this out. Stefan says just until EJ blinks.

EJ is surprised that Johnny hasn’t ran in to Melinda in the halls since Stefan has practically moved her in. Johnny questions Stefan being with Melinda but EJ says he’s not really as it’s all just fun and games for Stefan as he tries to put one over on him and Nicole. Nicole offers Johnny a biscuit from Sweet Bits Bakery but Johnny says he’ll pass. Johnny thought EJ and Stefan buried the hatchet so he questions why Stefan would be trying to get one over on EJ. EJ explains that Stefan and Gabi are trying to conspire to get Li’s DiMera shares without Gabi sticking to the deal that she signed with Li. EJ insists that he’s just trying to protect the company and Johnny’s future inheritance. Johnny says whatever and he doesn’t want to stick around as last night’s show was enough for him so he’s going to the town square for coffee. Nicole decides that just means more for them and has one of the drugged biscuits.

Chanel talks to Paulina on the phone and says things have been pretty quiet. Chanel tells her not to forget to come by to try one of Talia’s biscuits as they hang up. Talia questions Chanel saying things were quiet. Chanel says she meant in a good way because Paulina was worried that Sloan would try something again, but so far nothing. Talia wonders if Sloan will finally back off. Chanel wishes but states that Sloan has pretty much dedicated her life to destroying hers. Chanel adds that she’s put up with a lot from Sloan, so she deserves a treat of her own. Chanel points out that she hasn’t even tried one of the biscuits. Chanel then takes a bite and tells Talia that it’s amazing.

Sloan questions why Eric would bring that in to her home and why he would think that she’d ever want to eat something from that murderous bakery. Eric says that it’s just breakfast. Sloan argues that he knows how she feels about that family and what they did to her. Sloan complains that not only did he give them money but he brought it in to her home and questions why he would do something like that. Eric responds that he did it because he wants to help her finally get over it. Sloan questions Eric thinking she should just get over it. Eric says he’s only trying to help and he knows she was traumatized by what happened. Sloan argues that what happened was her mother was killed and took her last breath when Chanel pushed her off the roof top. Sloan complains that her mother is not coming back from the dead and she doesn’t get that luxury like some people. Eric clarifies that he’s not telling her to get over the death of her mother and father, he’s just trying to tell her that she’s only hurting herself by making everything about the death of her mother. Sloan asks if this is because of the way she died and doesn’t want to hear that it was an accident. Eric doesn’t want to fight with her but worries that this need for revenge isn’t healthy, so she needs to ease off a bit.

Talia jokes with Chanel about saving biscuits for the customers. Gabi approaches so Chanel and Talia encourage her to try their new breakfast biscuits. Talia promises it’s a healthy way to start the day and offers Gabi a free sample which she accepts. Gabi says Chanel has outdone herself. Chanel says it’s actually Talia’s recipe and introduces Talia to Gabi. Gabi recognizes Talia’s last name so Talia confirms she is Jada’s sister while Gabi reveals that she is Rafe’s sister. Talia says they have to have a talk about how perfect Rafe and Jada are for each other. Gabi is excited that someone else sees how obvious it is. Talia declares that when two people belong together, it’s a crime to keep them apart. Gabi remarks that she couldn’t agree more.

Li complains to Wendy that Gabi is still his wife even though he might be the only one that remembers that. Wendy asks what he’s so upset about. Li explains that there was no meeting as Gabi never went near the Bistro last night while EJ sent him pictures of Gabi in bed with Stefan. Wendy recalls Gabi saying the story about Stefan and Melinda wasn’t true. Li says this is why Gabi was so sure of that. Li argues that Gabi wants Stefan and his shares and everything but him. Wendy asks what happened when he confronted her, then questions him not saying anything. Li responds that he can’t stop loving Gabi even after all of this, as he still believes that she belongs with him, not Stefan.

Stefan and Melinda go to the living room to put on a show for EJ and Nicole. Melinda talks about having everything she needs in Stefan’s room and tells EJ that he’s not getting rid of her anytime soon. Stefan takes some of the drugged breakfast biscuits for he and Melinda. Nicole steps aside with EJ and encourages him to keep it together and not let them get to him. EJ wonders why Li hasn’t done anything yet. Nicole tells EJ not to worry and suggests they go for a walk to think of what to do next. Stefan and Melinda act playful with each other and end up breaking a glass. EJ shouts at them and questions being expected to believe this travesty of a love affair and not call them out on it. EJ then declares that Stefan is actually having an affair with Gabi and not Melinda.

Eric worries that Sloan is letting her obsession with Paulina and Chanel take over her life and everything she seems to be doing is about them, even eating her breakfast. Eric tells her to stop giving them so much power and to ease off a bit, then she will feel better. Sloan calls him condescending. Eric argues that he sees what’s going on and what she’s doing. Sloan asks what he’s not saying. Sloan guesses he thinks that she’s terrorizing Paulina and Chanel. Eric says he never said that, but admits he thought it.

Talia asks Chanel to watch the table for her because she and Gabi have a lot to talk about. Talia steps away with Gabi and talks about them being on the same page because their siblings can’t see it. Gabi thinks they see it but they’re just afraid to do anything about it because of the work policy. Talia mentions pushing Jada and even trying with Rafe but he shot her down. Gabi assures they will come up with a plan together and if it’s meant to be, they will find their way to each other. Johnny comes by the Bakery, saying he needs coffee. Chanel has him try one of the drugged breakfast biscuits first. Chanel asks why he’s so tired and if Wendy is keeping him up late. Johnny wishes that was the case, but he thinks Wendy is going to dump him for Tripp.

Wendy questions Li thinking he actually still has a chance with Gabi. Li knows he’s supposed to throw a fit and tell her that she’s never getting his shares, but he’s been holding onto hope for so long that he can’t give up now. Li says he’s not fooling himself about Gabi’s feelings for Stefan, but argues that things here were starting to work. Li brings up that Gabi said she loved his breakfast and the deal he set up for her which Wendy points out Gabi uses to sneak out to see Stefan. Li says that hurts obviously but complains that he really thought if they spent time together, she’d remember how great they were together and better than anything she’d have with Stefan. Li questions what is wrong with him.

Stefan comments on EJ losing his cool. EJ tells him that he doesn’t get it and the game is over. EJ informs Stefan that Li has pictures that he took of Stefan and Gabi in the secret room, so any minute now, Li is going to lower the boom on Stefan and Gabi and any hope that Gabi had of getting Li’s DiMera shares. Melinda asks Stefan if this means she’s out of a job. Stefan says he’s afraid so, but he owes her and her performance was oscar worthy. Stefan tells Melinda that he now needs to hash this out with his brother. Melinda decides to go shower and leave him to it. Stefan questions EJ spying on he and Gabi, commenting that there is no bar too low for EJ. EJ argues that Stefan and Gabi were sneaking around like horny teenagers but somehow he’s the one who sunk too low. EJ declares that he’s protecting the family business from a viper. Stefan warns him not to talk about Gabi like that. EJ states that Stefan may not see who Gabi really is, but he does clearly and won’t apologize for that. EJ calls Stefan a traitor to Stefano and everything he created.

Eric tells Sloan that he didn’t want to suspect her but admits it crossed his mind. Sloan brings up that she swore to him that she wasn’t the one trashing Paulina’s office or sending threatening notes. Eric mentions that he doesn’t know anyone else who has a personal agenda against them. Eric then points out that he noticed a stack of magazines with scissors on top. Sloan questions Eric checking up on her and asks if he went through the magazines. Sloan asks if he felt any remorse when he saw the magazines were in tact or if he just assumed she got rid of the evidence. Eric argues that he didn’t assume anything and then Abe showed up to confront her. Sloan thought Eric defended her but guesses she was silly to think he would have her back. Eric insists that he does have her back. Eric points out that when he told Sloan about Abe, she sent someone a text and that is when Paulina got a threatening text. Sloan mocks the idea that she’s guilty. Eric points out that he wouldn’t be here if he thought she was guilty. Sloan doesn’t give a damn what he thinks and doesn’t want to sleep with someone who thinks she’s out committing felonies in her free time. Sloan tells Eric to get out and threatens to throw all of his crap out the window. Eric tries to plead with her but she orders him to get out right now and opens the door. Sloan remarks that Eric did her a favor by not trusting her because now she has so much more time to obsess over Chanel and Paulina than wasting it on him. Eric then exits the apartment.

Chanel asks Johnny if it’s over with Wendy. Johnny doesn’t want to talk about it and asks if Sloan is terrorizing her and Paulina. Chanel says yes and that Sloan denies she was behind the threats but assures they are going to prove it was her. Chanel switches the topic back to him and asks what’s going on with he and Wendy as she thought things were picking up. Johnny repeats that he doesn’t want to talk about it but Chanel argues that she’s his friend, a good listener, and maybe she could cheer him up so he gives in. Johnny informs Chanel that Tripp found out that Wendy said they were never exclusive, so he went right to work. Chanel feels that doesn’t mean it’s over between them. Johnny points out that Wendy and Tripp are already really close. Chanel points out that Johnny and Wendy are too. Johnny doesn’t think he has a chance since Tripp has way more to offer, so he can’t compete.

Wendy encourages Li that there’s nothing wrong with him and says that unrequited love is obviously painful. Wendy understands Li has never been this much in love with anyone before which he confirms. Wendy hates to tell him to give up hope, but she hates to see him hurting like this. Wendy reminds Li that he only has four months to go on his deal with Gabi and she’s already sleeping with her ex. Wendy tells Li to open his eyes as this is not the time for wishful thinking. Wendy states that Gabi is cheating on him and lying to him, so she’s not warming to him. Wendy decides that Li needs to think, so she should get out of his way. Wendy then exits the apartment. Li looks back at the photo of Gabi and Stefan in bed on his phone.

Stefan questions EJ saying he’s the traitor of the family. Stefan calls EJ the miserable son of a bitch who offered him a truce and then immediately started working behind his back to sabotage him. Stefan brings up EJ thinking he had him dead to rights when he set he and Gabi up in the hotel room, but he worked quickly to come up with a plausible ruse. EJ laughs at that and says it was idiotic. Stefan says it wasn’t meant to fool him, but to make him open his mouth and admit what he was doing but he didn’t have the guts. EJ points out that Stefan didn’t have the willpower not to have his plan blow up in smoke. EJ says that now Stefan and Gabi can be together, but what’s important to him is that Gabi can no longer get her hands on the DiMera shares because Stefan blew it. EJ hopes one quickie in the basement was worth it. EJ then walks out of the room and heads upstairs then Nicole follows out.

Li paces around the apartment then pulls out his phone and sends a text.

Stefan pulls out his phone and makes a call.

Talia comments on Gabi receiving a text and a call at the same time. Gabi says she wants to continue their conversation but she has to take this. Talia understands and walks away while Gabi answers the call from Stefan. Gabi asks why Stefan is calling her on this phone when Li could look at the history. Stefan tells her it doesn’t matter and reveals the cat’s out of the bag because EJ saw them in the secret room and sent a picture to Li. Gabi realizes that’s why Li was so cold this morning and worries about the shares. Stefan tells her that he’s sorry and it’s all his fault. Gabi says they decided it because it’s what they wanted. Stefan encourages that they will figure it out and points out they at least don’t have to pretend anymore. Stefan asks what Gabi wants to do now. Gabi instructs Stefan to pack his things while she goes to have it out with Li and then Stefan can move right in. Gabi reminds Stefan to give Melinda her walking papers. Stefan gets a sudden headache and guesses he just got excited and had a blood rush. Stefan says he’s good now and asks if she’s sure she doesn’t want him there when she talks to Li. Gabi assures that she has to do this herself. Gabi tells Stefan that she loves him. Stefan says he loves her too and they hang up. Stefan exits the living room, leaving behind the bakery box while Gabi walks on finishing her drugged breakfast biscuit.

Chanel questions Johnny saying he can’t compete, what Tripp that he doesn’t, and what he’s so worried about. Johnny shouts that Tripp’s a doctor while he’s just some failed movie maker. Johnny adds that Tripp is built, handsome, and marks the sympathy box since his mom is in an institution. Chanel is tired of Johnny putting himself down and encourages that he has just as much to offer as Tripp does. Chanel likes Tripp a lot and thinks he’s a great guy but says so is Johnny. Chanel calls him all that and so much more, asking if she would have married him otherwise.

Sloan trashes the breakfast that Eric had brought from the bakery.

Johnny thanks Chanel for the pep talk but says it didn’t really work. Chanel argues that this isn’t like him. Johnny doesn’t know where his usual self confidence has disappeared to but thanks her for reminding him how they used to be when they got married in Italy. Johnny knows their relationship didn’t end pretty but talks about how it began. Chanel acknowledges that she was so swept off her feet. Johnny tells Chanel that she’s beautiful while Chanel recalls their wedding. Chanel encourages Johnny to get his confidence together. Johnny gets a headache but blames it on his lack of sleep while Chanel starts to feel hot. Johnny recalls when they stayed up all night in Italy. Chanel says she remembers everything. Johnny talks about the red dress she had on. Talia comes back over and tells Chanel that she’s starting another batch of the biscuits. Chanel mentions that Johnny loved his. Johnny starts to get dizzy and envisions Chanel wearing the red dress from their wedding. Johnny then suddenly gets down on one knee and proposes to Chanel. Wendy then walks by and is shocked to see them.

Gabi goes home to the apartment and tells Li that she got his text. Li says there is something he needs to say. Gabi responds that she thinks she knows. Gabi turns to look at Li but imagines him as Stefan.

Melinda gets out of the shower as Stefan enters his room and imagines her as Gabi. Stefan sees Melinda as Gabi and asks how she got here so fast. Stefan then says who cares as she’s here now and hugs Melinda while thinking she is Gabi.

EJ and Nicole walk past the Brady Pub. EJ wonders why Li hasn’t acted on the photo and says he knows he got it since he saw the notification. Nicole says it doesn’t matter since EJ won and Gabi lost. Nicole then gets a call from work and says she has to take it. EJ says he has to get to the office anyway so they will talk later. They kiss goodbye and EJ walks away. Nicole answers the call and says those files should be in. Nicole then imagines Eric approaching her while dressed as a priest.

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

Eric goes to Sloan’s apartment and finds the door cracked open. Eric rushes inside and calls out for Sloan but Jada comes down the stairs. Eric questions what is going on and what Jada is doing there.

Talia goes to Rafe’s office and asks if Jada is around. Rafe says she’s out on a call and asks if she wants to leave a message for her. Talia says no, but since she’s here, she asks if Rafe and Jada enjoyed their dinner last night. Abe overhears this from outside the door and enters the office, questioning what dinner.

Chanel goes home and tells Paulina that the bakery was busy and almost sold out, but she managed to save some for Paulina and Abe. They joke about her diet as Chanel brings up Paulina seeing the cardiologist. Paulina points out that she was given a clean bill of health. Paulina recalls when she went to the appointment, Chanel said she was going to handle Sloan, so she assumes this is her doing as she shows her laptop with Leo’s latest column about Sloan, titled “Is Salem’s Top Legal Eagle a Total Psycho?”

Sloan goes to Leo’s room at the Salem Inn. Leo asks what her problem is. Sloan says it’s his stupid little gossip column. Leo jokes that she read that and immediately came over assuming it was about her, so that means the story is true. Sloan warns Leo to fix this or she will end him.

Gwen enters the Pub and sees Xander and Chloe together. Gwen remarks that it looks like the rumors are true. Chloe questions what rumors. Gwen responds that according to Leo, they are Salem’s new hottest couple and it looks like he was right. Xander questions what she is talking about. Gwen responds that she walked in and heard them toasting to letting go of the past and moving on, so it’s very clear that they are moving on with each other. Xander tells Gwen that she doesn’t understand. Gwen argues that Xander lied to her when he said he couldn’t be with her because he was still very in love with Sarah, but now she sees he’s cozying up to Chloe. Gwen complains about how Chloe treated her and Leo. Gwen declares that as far she’s concerned, they deserve each other.

Jada informs Eric that she’s here on official police business. Eric asks if anything happened to Sloan. Jada says not that she knows of and explains that she came to question her but she wasn’t around, so she decided to take a look around. Eric accuses her of breaking in. Jada informs Eric that the supervisor let her in when she showed her warrant. Eric asks if this is about the letter. Jada responds that there’s been a break in the case as last night, Paulina received a very threatening text message and she thinks Sloan might know something about it.

Abe questions Rafe and Jada having dinner together, reminding Rafe that they talked about this. Rafe assures that it was very platonic and explains that he ran in to Jada and Talia at the Pub, so they decided to sit at a table together. Rafe asks if that’s against the policy or if he should have fled the Pub entirely to maintain the police department’s sparkling reputation. Rafe introduces Abe to Talia and notes that she was also there the other night. Talia tells Abe it’s nice to meet him. Abe recognizes her name as working with Chanel and helping Paulina through her panic attack. Talia hopes Paulina is feeling a lot less stress now. Abe says not so much because this situation with Sloan is getting to her.

Chanel mocks the idea of the article hurting Sloan’s feelings. Paulina asks if it was Chanel’s work then and told all to Leo. Chanel responds that Leo doesn’t reveal his sources. Paulina says that Sloan will know who gave this to Leo. Chanel feels it’s about time that Sloan realizes that they hit back and this will hit her where it hurts. Chanel states that the only thing Sloan cares about other than making them miserable, is her law practice. Chanel wonders how many people will be looking for a psycho lawyer. Paulina hopes she’s right that this backs Sloan off and that last night’s text will be the end of it. Chanel questions what text.

Leo tells Sloan to chill and asks what exactly she wants him to do. Sloan tells Leo to issue an immediate retraction and admit that he made the whole story up. Leo responds that he got his intel from a very reliable source. Sloan guesses that was Paulina. Leo says as a journalist, he does not reveal his sources. Sloan argues that he’s not a journalist and calls him an insignificant little worm, who is about to have his ass sued for libel. Leo argues that it’s not libel if it’s true. Sloan calls it untrue that she has been harassing Paulina. Leo points out that she has motive and keeps insisting that Chanel killed her mother. Leo calls it a sad story and he’s sure the public would be on her side if she confessed in detail in his column, then they could get the whole town to hate Paulina and Chanel instead of just her. Leo turns on his recorder and suggests that Sloan tell him everything.

Eric argues that Jada has no proof that Sloan sent that text. Jada says that’s why she is here. Eric is pretty sure that Sloan has her phone with her. Jada says she could’ve used a different phone, so she decided to poke around a bit but admits she hasn’t found anything yet. Jada notes that she did notice Eric has his own drawer now, so things must be getting pretty serious. Eric states that he doesn’t need a lecture on why he shouldn’t be dating Sloan. Jada says it was just an observation but she knows it’s none of her business. Jada tells Eric that she just wants him to be happy, no matter who he is with. Eric responds that he wants her to be happy too. Eric then asks Jada if there is anybody new in her life.

Rafe asks Abe if Paulina is okay. Abe responds that she got a clean bill of health but all the harassment and pressure doesn’t let up. Rafe swears to get to the bottom of it. Abe knows he will and asks if he’s heard from Jada on if she was able to question Sloan about the text. Rafe says she hasn’t checked in yet but he will call Abe know as soon as he does. Abe apologizes for before and assures Rafe that he does trust him. Abe tells Talia that it was nice to meet her and says he’ll talk to Rafe later as he then exits the office. Talia apologizes to Rafe for getting him in trouble. Rafe says it’s okay but asks her to stop trying to push he and Jada together. Talia jokingly asks if she was that obvious. Rafe reminds her that he’s a trained detective. Talia jokes about Jada liking him so much. Rafe tells Talia that she heard Abe, he is Jada’s boss and there are rules against this so nothing can happen. Talia calls it a shame because they would make a great couple. Rafe repeats that nothing can happen. Jada asks if Rafe would be making his move if not for the policy.

Paulina shows Chanel the text she got that says “your husband can’t save you”. Chanel can’t believe Sloan sent this. Paulina says it was technically anonymous but they both know it was Sloan. Chanel asks if she told the police. Paulina assures that Abe is taking care of it. Chanel calls Sloan twisted. Paulina adds that Sloan practically gloated when she ran in to her last night. Paulina then reveals that she had another panic attack but claims it was no big deal and she got calmed down. Chanel guesses there is more. Paulina informs her that Sloan mocked her and walked away before knowing she was okay. Chanel calls Sloan a bitch. Paulina assures that she’s fine and that Sloan will get hers eventually, one way or another.

Sloan tells Leo that there is nothing to confess because she’s innocent. Leo suggests she read the comments of his column where everyone thinks she’s guilty. Sloan says that’s why she wants a retraction. Leo argues that it’s too late because the public has already made up it’s mind, so the only way to turn things around is to share her sob story and get people to feel sorry for her. Sloan asks why she would do that when Leo would just twist her words. Leo tries asking her which magazines she used to cut out the letters for the note. Sloan asks why that matters and calls him a hack. Leo urges her to work with him. Sloan demands an immediate retraction by tomorrow or else she will sue him. Sloan then storms out of the room.

Xander tells Gwen that it’s none of her business, but he and Chloe were just having a drink together and there’s nothing romantic going on. Gwen asks what about last night when she walked in and they were in each others’ arms. Chloe explains that she was upset about Brady and Xander was comforting her. Gwen asks about the photo that Leo took of them and shows it to them. Xander asks if Leo thinks he’s using the picture in his column. Gwen says not to worry as she killed the story like Xander did about Leo’s story on Chloe. Chloe points out that she was happy that Xander did that, so she hugged him. Gwen asks if that’s how they shacked up and traded sex for favors. Xander repeats that there’s nothing going on between them and asks why Gwen cares anyways when she’s sleeping with Alex. Gwen responds that she doesn’t care, she just doesn’t like being lied to. Gwen says if Xander didn’t want to be with her, he could’ve just told her instead of making up an excuse about being hung up on Sarah. Gwen calls Xander a coward and tells him to just admit he and Chloe are together now. Xander then gives in and tells Gwen that she’s right. Xander declares he’s fallen madly in love with Chloe and doesn’t care who knows it as he then grabs Chloe and kisses her, shocking Gwen.

Jada tells Eric that she’s not seeing anybody right now as she’s focused on work. Eric hopes she doesn’t neglect her personal life for too long as she deserves to be with somebody great. Jada thanks him and decides to get going. Jada asks Eric to remind Sloan to stop by the police station the first chance she gets. Eric agrees to tell her. Jada hopes Sloan is aware that they have ways to access deleted messages. Eric really thinks Sloan had nothing to do with this. Jada says it would still be in her best interest to cooperate as she then exits the apartment.

Rafe tells Talia that he should get back to work. Talia complains that he’s avoiding the question. Rafe says he will let Jada know that she stopped by. Talia argues that he doesn’t need to answer the question because she can see in their eyes that they like each other and they just need to find a way around the regulations. Rafe tells Talia that there are a lot of people in this town that he trusts and he hasn’t discussed this situation with them, so she shouldn’t be offended that he won’t with her either. Talia jokes that Rafe is right up Jada’s alley.

Abe comes home and sees what Chanel brought from the bakery but Paulina says that’s for later as Chanel went to the Bistro to pick up dinner. Paulina adds that Chanel was pretty upset when she told her about Sloan walking away from her during her panic attack and about the text message. Abe mentions talking to Rafe about that and that he sent Jada to Sloan’s apartment, so as soon as she reports back, he will give him an update. Paulina hopes they nail Sloan to the wall. Abe declares that in the meantime, he thinks they should leave Salem.

Sloan confronts Chanel in the town square and tells her to tell Paulina to stop spreading lies to the reporters. Chanel reveals that she did it, not Paulina, and says they weren’t lies. Sloan warns that if Chanel was the one who talked to Leo, then she’s the one who will go back and set the record straight. Chanel argues that the record is already straight. Chanel accuses Sloan of trashing Paulina’s office and sending the text. Sloan questions what text. Chanel tells her about the text that said “your husband can’t save you”. Sloan denies sending it so Chanel asks who else would send it. Sloan suggests one of the other hundred thousand people that hate that old obnoxious bitch. Chanel responds to that by slapping Sloan. Sloan shouts that she will kill her and attacks Chanel.

Paulina questions Abe wanting to move out of Salem. Abe clarifies that he didn’t say move but just an extended vacation and points out that they never had a honeymoon. Paulina argues that this is about getting away from Sloan. Abe admits that it is and says the police are on the case, so once Sloan is behind bars, they’ll come back. Paulina complains that they would be running away. Abe encourages her not to think about it like that. Abe says she’s under a lot of stress and Paris is beautiful this time of year. Paulina says she would love to but she can’t leave Chanel alone. Abe suggests she come with them but Paulina argues that Chanel won’t leave her bakery for that long which means she has to stay and protect her from Sloan, especially after she got Leo to run that column in the Spectator. Abe is not sure that’s a good idea with what they know about Sloan.

Chanel and Sloan fight in the town square. Chanel calls her a psycho while Sloan says Chanel is the one who killed her mother. Chanel grabs a bouquet of flowers and starts hitting Sloan with them until Talia runs out to break it up. Sloan argues that Chanel started it. Chanel responds that she has no problem finishing it. Talia declares it ends now and warns Sloan to leave before she calls the cops. Sloan remarks that she had no problem filing a restraining order against Paulina and guesses she will have to file one against Chanel too. Sloan then walks off. Tanel checks on Chanel, who shouts that she hates Sloan. Talia sees that Chanel is bleeding. Chanel calls it just a scratch while Talia worries that it could be infected. Talia decides to take Chanel to the bakery where they have a first aid kit.

Jada joins Rafe in his office. Rafe asks how it went with Sloan. Jada informs him that she wasn’t home so she just looked around the apartment and only found that she has crap taste in music and more handcuffs than the department, but no burner phone or cutout magazines. Rafe asks if she left a message. Jada confirms that she did on Sloan’s phone and with Eric. Rafe asks how it went with Eric. Jada says it went how it always does with an ex but she thought it was good thing because she saw him living there with a dominatrix who listens to Coldplay and realized she is over him.

After Xander suddenly kissed Chloe, he asks Gwen if she’s satisfied. Gwen calls him a pig and storms out of the Pub. Xander calls Gwen a nut. Chloe remarks that Gwen was right about one thing, he is a pig, and she then slaps him.

Gwen goes home where Leo tells her that she won’t believe what he just went through. Gwen says he won’t believe her day either as she tells Leo that he was right about Xander and Chloe. Gwen says they were at the Pub and she was showing her cleavage while he was undressing her with his eyes. Leo asks Gwen if quietly walked away but Gwen says she went over to confront them. Gwen adds that at first, Xander said nothing was going on but then he kissed Chloe right in front of her. Leo is happy and exclaims that this means they are winning, leaving Gwen confused.

Xander questions why Chloe slapped him. Chloe argues that he assaulted her. Xander says he just gave her a kiss while Chloe complains that it was in public for someone else’s benefit. Chloe doesn’t like being dragged in to his relationship with Gwen and especially not being used as a prop for his ex. Xander admits she has a point. Chloe asks if he stopped to think for a second about what he did. Chloe complains that Gwen will go straight to Leo, who will put it in his next column, and then Brady will read it. Xander thought she was moving on. Chloe argues that she never said that but it still doesn’t give him a right to maul her in public. Xander apologizes and admits he didn’t think. Xander repeats that he is sorry because he really would like them to be friends.

Jada tells Rafe that she’ll get started on the report. Rafe adds that her sister stopped by to see her and then mentioned their dinner last night in front of Abe. Jada says she will tell her to back off. Rafe notes that he already did that but it did not seem to phase her. Rafe says Talia went from their dinner together to how unfair the policy is and then concluded with how clearly attracted they are to each other. Jada says she’s sorry and she’s mortified. Rafe says it’s okay and he just wanted her to know that Talia clearly hasn’t given up her campaign. Jada assures that she will handle her but insists that she has never encouraged that as she knows there can be nothing between them and that Rafe has no interest in her in that way. Rafe thinks the problem is that he actually is interested.

Sloan comes home and finds Eric cleaning up the apartment. Sloan questions what all this is. Eric explains that Jada executed a search warrant after someone sent Paulina a threatening text message last night. Sloan remarks that apparently she’s already been tried and found guilty. Eric mentions Jada leaving a message that they want Sloan to come to the police station. Sloan complains that she’s getting tired of this. Eric adds that they want her to bring her phone and she better do what they say. Sloan assures that she has nothing to hide and offers her phone so Eric can see for himself.

Talia takes care of Chanel’s wound at the bakery. Chanel jokes that it was good to hire a doctor. Talia comments on Chanel getting in a street brawl and that it really looked like they were going to kill each other. Chanel admits she’s really glad Talia showed up when she did in general. Chanel says when Allie left, she lost not only her girlfriend but also her business partner and she was feeling overwhelmed until Talia showed up and now she’s finally seeing a path forward. Chanel thanks Talia for everything.

Gwen tells Leo that she doesn’t get how she’s winning. Leo encourages that her sexual exploits with Alex have made Xander mad with jealousy, so now he’s trying to make her jealous by stripping Chloe. Gwen remarks that it doesn’t feel like winning to her. Leo insists that Xander is using Chloe so that Gwen will come back to him. Gwen suggests maybe Leo’s plan backfired and now Xander has real feelings for Chloe. Leo admits he hadn’t thought of that.

Xander tells Chloe that he’s really sorry and asks for another chance. Chloe relates to being provoked in to doing something you regret. Chloe admits she’s actually really enjoyed hanging out with Xander and she never thought she’d be leaning on him for emotional support. Chloe jokes with Xander that they are good as long as he keeps his dirty paws away from her.

Jada questions what Rafe just said. Rafe clarifies that if he wasn’t her boss, he would ask her out. Jada responds that she would say yes. Rafe says he thought if they were aware of the situation, they could be more in control of the situation. Jada agrees but thinks the problem is not that he’s her boss because he’s very good and professional. Jada thinks the problem is the policy. Rafe says the policy is still real so nothing can happen. Jada decides to get going now that that’s settled. They say goodnight to one another as Jada then exits the office.

Eric tells Sloan that he doesn’t need to see her phone as he believes her. Sloan states that at least someone does. Eric does have one question and asks why she has baby’s-breath from a bouquet in her hair. Sloan says it’s been a long day and she’s going to shower. Sloan asks Eric to make dinner or order in because she’s not in the mood to go out as she’s had it with the good people of Salem. After Sloan goes to shower, Eric picks up her phone.

Abe tells Paulina that he wasn’t just trying to get her away from Sloan and it’s not that he doesn’t like having Chanel here, but he would like a little alone time with her. Paulina says once Sloan is behind bars, they will be Paris bound and they kiss. Paulina and Abe get the table set for dinner while Paulina decides to text Chanel to find out where she is.

Chanel and Talia are interrupted by Paulina’s text. Chanel says she should get going since Paulina wants her dinner. Talia tells Chanel that she’s all bandaged up and good to go. Chanel notes that they always order too much and invites Talia to join them for dinner. Talia asks if she’s sure as she doesn’t want to intrude. Chanel assures that Paulina loves her and will be happy to see her again. Talia accepts the invite and thanks her. Chanel thanks Talia for the medical assistance and they leave together. After they leave, someone sneaks in to the bakery and pours something in to a bowl of dough to tamper with their product..

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

Alex goes to Gwen’s room at the Salem Inn. Alex says he knows she’s busy but her assistant told him that she was working from home. Gwen says it’s okay and invites him in. Alex says he just needs to vent about his infuriating relative and figured she might understand. Gwen assumes he’s talking about Xander, so she says she is all ears.

Chloe and Xander play darts at the Brady Pub. Chloe talks about her bad last shot and how this time she is closing her eyes to concentrate first. Chloe then throws and hits a bullseye which excites her. Xander congratulates her and they hug as Brady walks in and greets them.

During hypnosis, Marlena asks if Stephanie still hears the sound of her mother’s voice but she doesn’t so Marlena brings her out of the hypnosis. Marlena asks how she feels. Stephanie says she’s fine and asks if it worked. Chad worries that he messed it up by asking who’s name Stephanie heard and thinks he threw it off. Stephanie confirms that she did hear Kayla say a name. Chad asks if it was Thomas Banks, but Stephanie reveals that she’s pretty sure it was Victor Kiriakis. Stephanie confirms that’s definitely what Kayla said. Chad wonders what it means and what Victor could possibly have to do with Kayla’s kidnapping.

Kayla helps Steve up and sits him in a chair in the wine cellar, asking if he’s okay. Steve asks if it’s really her and kisses her as they tearfully reunite.

Alex tells Gwen that he’s sorry to disappoint and as much as detests Xander, he’s here about Maggie, who he calls the boss from Hell. Gwen asks what she did now. Alex says he had an unbelievable opportunity land in his lap with the four prisms that the DiMeras and ISA were trying to get their hands on for decades. Alex says he found out Dr. Rolf had them and he pulled some strings so the prisms would’ve belonged to Titan in the biggest deal of the century but Maggie didn’t understand and made him go crawling back. Alex calls this a catastrophe because they lost and now the prisms will end up in the wrong hands and who knows what they will be used for.

Steve hopes he’s not dreaming and Kayla assures that it’s real as they kiss. Kayla tells him that she’s missed him so much. Steve thought he was going to have to miss her forever and to live without her. Steve calls this a miracle. Kayla asks how badly he’s hurt. Steve questions her worrying about him after everything she’s been through. Steve says he just has a little headache from where Bo pistol whipped him and doesn’t suppose that was a dream either. Steve can’t believe it and talks about Bo being dead for years but there he was alive and then he treated him like his sworn enemy. Kayla explains that Megan brainwashed him so he’s not really Bo and is like a heartless impostor. Steve asks if Bo was working with Thomas Banks in taking Kayla off the island. Kayla doesn’t know anything about that and asks why. Steve informs her that Megan said Thomas was the one who took her. Kayla calls Megan a liar and complains that Bo went rogue and Megan knew it. Kayla figures Megan just didn’t want to give Hope the satisfaction of knowing that Bo is alive. Steve asks if she knows why Bo brought her here. Kayla explains that Bo wants her to use the prisms to create the miracle serum that Dr. Rolf and Megan have been working on. Kayla says she doesn’t even have any idea how to do it, so they are never getting out of here. Steve encourages that so many people are looking for her and they know he’s here now, so it’s only a matter of time before they are found.

Stephanie goes over that they know Kayla is in Greece and Victor is from Greece. Marlena wonders if Victor was somehow involved in Kayla’s disappearance. Stephanie doesn’t know what to think. Chad suggests going straight to Victor directly. Stephanie agrees and adds that they could get Maggie involved to help. Chad assures that Maggie will be on their side.

Gwen tells Alex that she still doesn’t understand why Victor made Maggie the CEO of Titan and argues that she doesn’t seem very bright or have much experience. Gwen insists that Maggie can’t afford to lose Alex because she needs his energy and business sense. Gwen calls him a tremendous asset to the company. Alex thanks her but says unfortunately Maggie thinks he’s a liability so that’s why Maggie is dying to replace him and probably will. Gwen questions who she would replace him with and who would want to take a thankless job. Alex tells her that it starts with an X. Alex says that Xander is miserable as Gwen’s business partner so he’d be happy to abandon the Spectator and make his mark on Titan. Alex adds that Xander would also be punishing him for taking his place in Gwen’s bed, by taking his spot in Titan.

Brady questions what’s going on here. Xander says they are just playing darts while Brady points out that Chloe hates darts. Xander says not anymore as she just got a bullseye. Chloe tells Brady that she and Xander were eating alone at separate tables, so they just ran in to each other. Chloe asks how Rachel is doing. Brady says she’s okay and happy to have Marlena back. Chloe tells him how sorry and ashamed she is of what she said to Rachel and says it’s no excuse but she was so hurt from Rachel saying she hated her. Xander assures that Brady understands, but Brady tells him to stay out of this. Xander argues that if Brady doesn’t understand, that would be very unkind of him since Rachel is being horrible to Chloe. Brady tells him to shut up while Xander continues saying that Rachel has provoked Chloe over and over again until she finally couldn’t take it anymore, lost her temper, and gave Rachel a taste of her own nasty medicine. Brady warns Xander not to talk about his daughter and that he has no idea what she’s been through. Brady adds that Rachel’s mother is in prison, so as a parent, he tries to give her tenderness and understanding. Brady questions how any of this is Xander’s business and then questions Chloe telling him about it. Chloe apologizes but says she was upset and needed someone to talk to. Brady questions confiding in Xander of all people in Salem. Xander argues that he happens to be compassionate and understanding. Xander remarks that he’s glad that Chloe stood up to Brady’s spiteful daughter. Brady calls Xander spiteful and insensitive, arguing that he doesn’t know what it’s like to be a parent so he can’t talk like he does. Brady adds that Xander doesn’t even know how to be a decent human being. Xander brings up that he gave Alex a black eye the other day, so maybe Brady would like one too.

Steve tells Kayla how crushed their kids were to lose her and brings up how Stephanie didn’t make it to the hospital in time before she supposedly died and she was so tortured by that. Kayla can’t wait to see Joey, Tripp, and Stephanie. Kayla worries that Steve needs stitches but Steve assures it will heal fine. Kayla says it’s bad enough that Bo kidnapped her, but now to hurt him this way. Steve insists that they will be fine and Bo will be too. Kayla hopes so but feels that Bo somehow broke away from Megan’s mind control. Kayla talks about all Bo has been through over ten years in limbo with whatever Dr. Rolf and Megan did to him. Kayla worries that Bo is at war with himself because he kept talking about wanting a fresh start and figuring out who he really is. Steve asks if being Bo Brady doesn’t appeal to him anymore. Kayla says she kept trying to appeal to him about their past but Bo didn’t want to hear it and just dismissed it. Kayla adds that Bo wants to build an empire with wealth and power. Kayla thinks it’s all about being Victor’s son or maybe even his clone.

Gwen encourages Alex that Titan is his birthright, so she warns him not to roll over and let Xander take his job. Gwen questions why Maggie would want Xander anyway after he screwed her daughter over. Alex remarks that it seems Maggie has a soft spot for Xander and just forgives him for whatever he does. Alex can’t believe Maggie gives Xander a pass at every turn, but get pissed off at him if he even sits in her CEO chair. Alex stops and apologizes but Gwen tells him to go ahead and insult Xander because she doesn’t care. Alex asks if she no longer has a soft spot for Xander. Gwen asks why should she. Gwen adds that ever since taking a step back from their relationship, Xander has been avoiding her at every turn and didn’t even bother to show up at the office for work today. Alex asks if he at least had an excuse but Gwen says he didn’t call or even bother go give an excuse. Gwen remarks that it’s no mystery where he’s spending his time now and that he’s probably cozying up to Chloe as they speak.

Chloe tries to stop Xander and Brady from fighting. Xander calls Brady arrogant and self righteous, bringing up that he fathered a child with a sadistic psychopath. Brady warns him not to go there. Chloe says that’s enough. Brady agrees and then Chloe tells him he can leave. Brady refuses to leave until he talks to Chloe. Xander asks if Chloe wants to talk to him. Brady argues that Chloe can speak for herself and asks if they can talk. Chloe asks Xander to give them a few minutes. Xander agrees and goes to get another round of drinks. Brady sits with Chloe and says he wants to fix this which surprises Chloe. Chloe cries that she was so terrible to his daughter and feels horrible about it. Chloe says she would understand why that would be a deal breaker. Brady says it doesn’t have to be and that Rachel just needs to understand that Chloe doesn’t hate her. Chloe asks how she could hate Rachel when she’s just a child who has been through way too much lately. Chloe says her heart breaks for her having Kristen as a mother. Chloe adds that she truly loves Rachel and wishes she didn’t see her as the enemy or as the person who came between her and her mother. Brady encourages that they used to have a great relationship. Chloe wishes she could have that again but cries that she can’t take back what she said, so Rachel just thinks of her as the evil step monster. Chloe asks how to change that. Brady says he will talk to her. Chloe offers to write an apology but Brady says he seems to be the only one who can get through to her. Chloe is not sure talking will be enough to get Rachel to see her in a better light, feeling that it’s going to take a miracle. Brady questions if she’s saying she wants to give up because of this issue with his daughter. Chloe cries that she doesn’t. Xander then comes back and asks Chloe if she’s ready for a rematch at darts. Brady then gets up and walks out of the Pub.

Alex questions Gwen about Xander and Chloe. Gwen informs him that she saw them with their heads together the other day. Gwen says she stopped Leo from putting it in his column, thinking he was making something out of nothing, but now she’s having second thoughts. Gwen shows Alex the photo that Leo sent her of Xander and Chloe hugging and asks if that looks platonic to him. Alex says maybe. Gwen says maybe she should’ve let Leo run the story then, especially since he replaced it with something Sloan would have gone mental over. Gwen wonders if Leo was right about Chloe and Xander because after she told Leo it was rubbish, she walked in and saw the two of them in each others’ arms.

Xander tries to encourage Chloe to another game of darts but Chloe doesn’t want to play anymore. Xander blames Brady for making her feel worse. Chloe says she’s just miserable and full of regret and guilt. Chloe adds that Xander threatening to beat up Brady didn’t help. Xander apologizes and argues that Rachel treating Chloe like dirt and Brady doing nothing to protect her from it is outrageous. Chloe argues that there’s nothing Brady can do to protect her from it because Kristen has convinced Rachel that she’s evil and that she’s keeping her from her mother, so now Rachel just wants her out of her and Brady’s life. Xander guesses all he did by nixing Leo’s article was postpone the inevitable. Chloe asks what he means. Xander says from personal and recent experience, there comes a point of no return in a failing relationship. Xander talks about trying to go back to before it all fell apart and trying to make it work, but it’s already over and just a matter of admitting it to yourself. Xander says he could have saved he and Sarah so much heartache if he just let go, but now they are divorced and Sarah can’t even bring herself to live in Salem. Chloe asks if he thinks she and Brady are at the point of no return. Xander responds that it doesn’t matter what he thinks and asks what she thinks.

Brady goes home where Marlena is reading. Brady talks about still getting goosebumps when he sees her because he’s so grateful that she is there. Marlena feels the same and is grateful to be alive and home with family she loves. Brady asks if there’s any news about Kayla. Marlena responds that they may be making progress as Chad and Stephanie were over and they think Victor may be able to shine some light on where Kayla is. Brady questions that. Marlena explains that Victor is not involved in Kayla’s disappearance but Stephanie remembered Kayla saying something about him. Brady says that could be crucial to finding Kayla and offers to talk to Victor. Marlena says they will see how they do and if they don’t discover anything, then maybe Brady can give it a try.

Chad and Stephanie go to the Titan office where Maggie asks what she can do for them. Chad asks if Victor is around. Maggie says he’s out of town. Stephanie says they needed to ask him something. Maggie suggests asking her and maybe she could help. Chad explains that Kayla is in Greece and asks if Maggie can think of any reason why Kayla would bring up Victor’s name when Stephanie asked where she was. Maggie says she can’t be sure but Victor has investment properties all over Greece. Stephanie asks for a list of those properties. Maggie says she has access and get her assistant on it right away. Stephanie says that would be very helpful. Chad thanks her and asks if she can think of anyone in Greece that is connected to Victor. Maggie says they will keep their ears out and if they hear anything, they will be their first call.

Steve and Kayla talk about this being Victor’s childhood home. Steve comments on the smell of goats. Kayla mentions that Bo did encourage her to open up a bottle from the wine cellar. Steve suggests making the best of it while they are stuck here but Kayla thinks he should stick to water and aspirin for his headache. Steve agrees to hold off on wine until they get out. Kayla assures they will have champagne when they get out. Steve agrees that they will party, sing, and dance back in Salem. Kayla states that just being with him makes her so happy and grateful because he is all she really needs as they kiss.

Chloe tells Xander that she doesn’t know how she and Brady can come back from this but she also doesn’t know how to give up since she has loved him for so long. Xander says he understands but it’s not like Brady is the only fish in the sea as there are plenty of handsome single men in Salem. Chloe asks like who. Xander asks what he is. Chloe brings up that he left her in the clutches of a Mexican drug lord. Xander says she’s just never going to let that go. Xander admits he has some flaws and has behaved abominably at times, but jokes that he’s better looking and more intelligent than Brady. Chloe jokes that she still can’t let the left her to die stuff go as they toast their beers.

Marlena tells Brady that Rachel has been playing in her room for hours and she offered to take her out for ice cream but she refused. Brady explains that Rachel didn’t want Marlena to know that she’s grounded because she decided to skip school and take an uber to prison to see Kristen. Brady adds that he forced Kristen to write a letter to Rachel, telling her to accept Chloe, but Rachel saw through it. Brady thought they could work through it but it’s just escalated and then Rachel told Chloe that she hated her and out of anger and frustration, Chloe gave it right back. Brady doesn’t know what to do as he wants to put his kid first because he doesn’t want her to be miserable, but if he doesn’t fix things with Chloe, he’s going to be miserable. Marlena relates to having the same problem with John and Sami. Brady remembers how terrible he was to her as a teenager but she took it with grace. Marlena understands he was acting out of anger like Rachel is, but he outgrew it. Brady says that John and Marlena were already married and a solid couple, so there was no coming between them while Rachel still thinks that he and Kristen could get back together. Brady adds that to top it off, Xander is moving in on Chloe. Marlena is surprised as she didn’t think Xander was her type. Brady says whether he is or isn’t, they are hanging out. Marlena assures they are just friends. Brady agrees, for now. Marlena says she’s so sorry and asks how she can help. Brady asks Marlena to talk to Rachel, thinking she might be able to get through to her. Marlena agrees to do that right now. Brady says he has no expectations but thinks she might be the only other person in the world that can make her understand things. Marlena agrees to do her best but says not to expect any miracles. Brady thinks Rachel having her grandma back is miracle enough. Marlena then heads to Rachel’s room.

Chad and Stephanie walk through the town square as Stephanie tries calling Steve but says it’s going straight to voicemail. Chad gets a text from Maggie with the listings of Victor’s properties in Greece which Stephanie says she will text over to Steve. Stephanie knows they don’t have anything concrete, but she feels like they are getting closer. Chad encourages that they are and they are going to find her mom. Alex then appears and questions what they mean by finding her mom. Stephanie then reveals to Alex that her mom is alive.

Kayla wonders where Bo went as she thought he would be eager to supervise her scientific endeavors. Steve wonders why Bo left him with her, knowing he’d try to break them out. Kayla asks if he thinks anything will bring her brother back. Steve assures that he thinks the real Bo is still in there. Steve talks about how Bo threatened to take his other eye out but he couldn’t go through with it and kept him alive. Kayla says Bo isn’t thinking rationally. Steve believes that deep down, Bo knows he needs them to save him from himself. Steve brings up that it was love that got through to he and John when Megan messed with their minds. Steve encourages that will get through to Bo as he will feel all of their love and come back to them, just like he came back to her.

Marlena comes back from Rachel’s room and informs Brady that Rachel is busy perfecting her 3D printing skills. Marlena adds that she did ask about Chloe but Rachel was not very receptive, so she will try again tomorrow. Brady knows she said this might be a long process but he doesn’t think he has time as he feels Chloe slipping through his fingers as they speak and it may already be too late..

Chloe resumes playing darts with Xander and gets another bullseye. Xander says he’s proud of her. Xander toasts to Chloe’s new found dart prowess and to both of them letting go of the past and getting on with their lives, right as Gwen enters the Pub. Gwen thinks the universe is trying to tell her something and remarks that it looks like the rumors are true. Chloe questions what rumors. Gwen responds that according to Leo, they are Salem’s new hottest couple and it looks like he was right.

Alex tells Stephanie that he’s really happy for her and can’t tell her what a relief it is for him either. Stephanie points out that he barely knew her mom. Alex says that’s true, but if she’s alive, at least now he knows he didn’t deprive her of being able to say goodbye to her after all.

Kayla shows Steve the old letter she found from Victor to Caroline, a plea to come visit him in Greece, but she never read it as it was returned to sender. Steve notes that it looks like it makes Kayla sad. Kayla confirms it does but she’s not really sure why. Kayla is glad Caroline stayed with her father as she always felt they had a wonderful marriage, but she finds herself feeling sorry for Victor and questions why. Kayla guesses there is just something tragic about Victor pining after Caroline all these years. Steve says it reminds him of when they read the story of Emily and Gideon. Kayla recalls how sad they were, thinking they wouldn’t get their happily ever after. Steve points out that they did and they will too. Kayla hugs Steve and says she loves him.

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

Marlena is reading at home until Chad shows up at the door. Marlena says it’s nice to see him and asks if he’s alright. Chad says he’s fine and that he heard she’s alive but he had to see it with his own eyes. Chad asks how she is and tells her she looks amazing. Marlena says she’s just so happy and thrilled to be back with the people she loves. Chad assures that everyone else is just as happy and calls it a miracle but notes that it’s just too bad that Kate didn’t make it too.

Stephanie is with Tripp at his apartment when her phone rings and she answers hoping it’s Kayla. Stephanie is shocked by what she hears and questions how did this happen.

Kayla opens the locked box she found in the wine cellar in Greece and finds a stack of envelopes. She wonders what could be so important for Victor to keep hidden all this time. Kayla picks one up and sees it’s a letter addressed to her mother, Caroline Brady.

Steve introduces himself to the cop in Greece and says he’s working with the ISA and needs to see the evidence found in Dr. Rolf’s room. The cop responds that he’s afraid his colleague already made that request as he arrived a few minutes before him. Steve asks if he’s still there. The cop informs him that “Mr. Donovan” is in the other room. Steve questions Shane being there. The cop suggests Steve join him while he checks to see what’s taking so long on their end. Steve goes to the room looking for Shane, but is shocked to find Bo instead. Steve asks if it’s really him and how this can be. Steve questions him being alive which Bo confirms that he is. Steve hugs Bo in shock while asking how this is possible that he’s alive. Steve then questions what Bo is doing in Greece, posing as Shane Donovan.

Hope and Harris show the photo of Thomas Banks around the restaurant until the bartender calls out that he wants to talk to them.

Stephanie says she’ll be there as soon as she can and hangs up. Tripp asks about the call. Stephanie reveals it was a hospital in Seattle as their brother Joey has been in an accident.

Kayla questions Victor keeping this letter to Caroline all these years. Kayla opens the envelope reads the letter where Victor wrote that he had just arrived in Greece and how it was terrible to leave her behind in Salem but that it was for the best after what happened between them.

Steve questions Bo about what is going on, how he’s alive, and what he’s doing here. Bo calls it a long story. Steve says that’s a story he’d like to hear. Steve explains that the cop told him that Bo said he was Shane Donovan and that he was trying to get all the evidence from Dr. Rolf’s room and asks why he would say that. Bo claims that he’s working undercover for the ISA but he can’t go in to detail. Bo says he just has to get some evidence and get the hell out. Steve asks if he’s in some kind of trouble. Bo claims he’s working a case and just has to go. Steve says not until they talk. Bo says he can’t talk as this is a highly sensitive operation. Steve argues that Kayla is missing and some psycho has her which is why he’s in Greece because he’s trying to track down Thomas Banks. Bo asks why Banks. Steve says that he and Hope have reason to believe Thomas is the one who took Kayla. Steve adds that Hope is here in Greece. Steve pulls out his phone and says he has to call Hope to tell her that Bo is alive. Bo grabs Steve’s phone away from him and says he’s not calling anyone.

The bartender in Greece introduces himself as Konstantin and says he’s the owner. He acknowledges that Hope might not mean any trouble but he recognizes seeing Harris on the news, being arrested for many crimes including trying to kill Hope on their wedding. Hope tries to explain as Konstantin questions how Harris got out of prison, assuming he must have escaped and is now a wanted man. He asks Hope if Harris is holding her against her will and then says she must be too scared to say so. He declares that Hope is safe now because he will make sure Harris never hurts anyone again.

Tripp asks Stephanie about Joey’s accident. Stephanie notes that he’s fine but pretty banged up with cracked ribs and a broken leg, so he’s in surgery now. Stephanie says that Joey is all alone and going to need help getting around so she’s going to Seattle since Steve and Kayla can’t. Tripp tells her that he will go. Stephanie argues against that, pointing out that Tripp has a job here. Tripp says she does too but Stephanie says she can work from anywhere. Tripp points out that Stephanie hasn’t slept since hearing from Kayla, so she needs to go see Marlena to see if Kayla left any clue as to where she might be. Tripp adds that Joey would want her to focus on finding Kayla. Tripp decides he will book his flight now. Stephanie thanks him and says she really appreciates it, but reminds him about his big date with Wendy.

Chad asks Marlena about Kate being in the lab too. Marlena confirms that Megan was holding all three of them. Chad goes over how now Marlena is home, Kayla is missing, and Kate’s gone. Marlena says she’s so sorry. Chad says he can’t stop thinking about Kate and trying to put all the bizarre pieces together. Chad asks what Megan wanted and what she did. Chad knows she doesn’t want to relive the nightmare, but Kate was like a mother to him and had a second chance but his own sister took it away from her. Chad states that losing Abigail how they did was a shock and having the answers made it a little easier. Marlena understands and wishes she could tell him more, but they were sedated most of the time and there was only one day where they were conscious together. Chad asks how Kate was. Marlena says she was alright and kept demanding to know what Megan planned to do with him but Megan wouldn’t tell them much and then she put them under again. Marlena adds that when she and Kayla woke up, Kate wasn’t there, so they tried to escape and find her but Dr. Rolf stopped them. Chad asks if he told them where Kate was. Marlena responds that Kate was with Megan as she was apparently going to be the first test subject of Rolf’s new serum which he said would be life changing. Marlena mentions that Megan came back and said that Kate had refused to cooperate so she was going to be taking a different path. Marlena adds that she and Kayla remained in the lab and a few minutes later, they heard a gunshot. Marlena assumes it was the same henchman who took Kayla off the island. Chad brings up Thomas Banks. Marlena says she hadn’t considered him and asks if his name came up. Chad informs her that Steve told Stephanie that Megan is claiming that Thomas Banks took Kayla.

Hope stops Konstantin and tells him there has been a misunderstanding. Hope explains that what he saw was old news and shows him an article on her phone that says Harris was cleared and found innocent of all charges. Harris confirms it’s true and says he feels terrible about all the people he hurt. Konstantin apologizes. Harris says he had every right to be upset and he’s glad that he was looking out for Hope. Hope thanks Konstantin and promises that Harris is not a danger to anyone. Hope adds that he’s actually helping her find her sister in law who was kidnapped. Hope shows Konstantin a picture of Kayla and asks if he’s seen her.

Kayla continues reading Victor’s letter to Caroline about how he wanted to stay in Salem but it had become too much of a risk with his feelings for her and that he loved her, so he didn’t want to destroy her life or her family.

Steve asks what the hell Bo is doing and says they need to call Hope and find Thomas Banks. Bo disagrees. Steve repeats that Thomas took Kayla. Bo responds that Thomas didn’t take Kayla, because he did. Steve asks what he’s talking about. Bo says he doesn’t have time to explain. Steve demands to know where Kayla is and asks if she’s alright. Bo says of course and asks if he really thinks he would hurt his own sister. Steve says he doesn’t, but he doesn’t get why Bo took Kayla off Megan’s island without telling anybody when he and John were there searching for her. Steve doesn’t know how they missed him. Bo asks what difference it makes. Steve shouts that Kayla is his wife and argues that Bo had to know how worried everyone would be. Steve questions Bo not letting anybody know and that he couldn’t find a way to make contact. Bo says he doesn’t have time for this. Steve tells Bo that he can trust him. Bo says that’s enough and he has to get this evidence. Bo tries to leave but Steve grabs him. Bo tells him to get the hell off of him.

Konstantin says he has not seen Kayla. Hope shows a photo of Thomas Banks and Konstantin confirms he has seen him but not in a few years. Hope tells Harris they should get back to the hotel and check in with Steve. Konstantin stops them and offers them a meal since he couldn’t provide them any information.

Tripp tells Stephanie that he hates to cancel on Wendy, but Joey needs him and Wendy will understand. Stephanie tells him to call her when he gets there. Stephanie hugs him and says he’s the best. Tripp wishes her luck with Marlena, hoping that she remembers something that helps Steve find Kayla. Stephanie then exits the apartment.

Kayla continues reading Victor’s letter to Caroline where he said he could never hurt her family but dreamed of them having a child together. Victor then wrote suggesting Caroline come there to Greece so they could be together.

Chad asks Marlena if she thinks Thomas took Kayla. Marlena admits it’s possible since Thomas had worked for Megan before. Chad asks if she saw Thomas in the lab. Marlena says she only saw Megan and Dr. Rolf. Marlena then remembers that there was someone else there.

Bo repeats to Steve to get the hell off of him and pulls a knife. Steve doesn’t believe he will cut him and reminds Bo that even if they haven’t seen each other in 10 years, he’s still his best friend in the world. Bo brings up that there was a time they hated each other and he took Steve’s eye. Steve asks Bo to put the knife down and talk. Bo says he’s done enough talking and warns him to let go before someone gets hurt. Steve doesn’t know what’s going on with him or what he’s been through but argues that this is not him as Bo Brady would never hurt him. Bo asks if he’s sure about that. Steve says he is but Bo then hits him and pins him against the wall with his knife held up. Bo declares that he took one of Steve’s eyes and now he’s going to take the other. Bo takes the knife and stabs through the wall next to Steve’s head. Steve laughs and says he knew Bo couldn’t do it. Bo then instead pulls out a gun. Steve says he doesn’t know what’s changed in Bo, but he can’t change 40 years of history and he’ll always be his closest friend. Bo tells him to shut the hell up and knocks him out.

Marlena tells Chad about the fourth tube in the lab and Dr. Rolf was about to tell her and Kayla who was in it, but Megan walked in so they never got a name. Marlena doesn’t think it could’ve been Thomas Banks if he’s been causing problems all around the world. Chad asks who she thinks it was then. Marlena is not sure they will ever know. Chad thanks her for telling him what happened and he’s glad to know that she and Kayla were with Kate in her last days and that she went out fighting. Marlena is glad he came by as they hug. Marlena tells Chad to call if he has any more questions. Chad says he appreciates that. Chad goes to leave and opens the door right as Stephanie arrives.

Kayla continues reading Victor’s letter to Caroline, saying he’s come to learn that nothing is more precious than time with the people you love and that he could send her a plane ticket so they could be together for awhile.

Hope tells Konstantin that she would normally say yes but they have lots of work to do. Konstantin encourages them to keep up their strength and calls Hope his best customer, saying he can’t let her leave without taking good care of her. Konstantin recalls Hope and Harris being there on the day they met and how happy they looked. Konstantin says that everyone there loved Hope and encourages them to have a seat, so they do. Konstantin announces he will recreate the magic of that night.

Wendy comes home and sees Tripp’s bag is packed. Tripp comes out of the back on his phone, booking his flight to Seattle. Wendy questions him going to Seattle. Tripp confirms that he is going this afternoon. Tripp apologizes but says his brother Joey was in an accident.

Stephanie tells Marlena that she knew she was back but it’s wonderful to see her as they hug. Stephanie asks how she’s feeling. Marlena says she’s fine and her family is taking very good care of her. Stephanie wasn’t expecting Chad to be there. Chad explains that he wanted to see a miracle with his own eyes and Marlena was kind enough to tell him what happened to Kate. Marlena repeats that she’s so sorry and asks Stephanie if there’s any news about Kayla. Stephanie says not yet, but that’s why she’s here because she was hoping Marlena might be able to help them find her. Marlena asks how she can help. Stephanie explains that Kayla called her but there was a lot of static and she could only make out that she was in Greece. Stephanie adds that Tripp thinks maybe her subconscious mind heard more, so maybe if Marlena hypnotizes her, she might remember. Stephanie knows the chances are slim but she will try anything that might help her mom. Marlena says she will too.

Hope and Harris get their dinner. They talk about this being a dead end with Thomas Banks. Harris suggests they finish their meal and then get back to the search. Harris jokes that Konstantin hopes for Hope to have an encore of smashing plates from their first night together. Harris recalls seeing Hope the same way everyone else did, as the beautiful American that everyone fell in love with.

Bo drags Steve back out to the main room of the Greece police station and asks the cop about the prisms. The cop hands over a bag with all three prisms and asks about Steve, thinking he was his colleague. Bo claims that Steve just told him that to get access to the prisms but he’s a con artist. Steve starts to regain consciousness. Bo claims that Steve came after him so he had to bash him in the head. Bo says he has to get him to a secure facility as Steve tries to say not to listen to him. Bo then drags Steve out of the room.

Wendy asks Tripp if Joey is going to be okay. Tripp says he has a broken leg but he should be just fine. Wendy asks if Joey is in surgery now. Tripp says that’s why he’s leaving now, to be there when he wakes up. Tripp tells Wendy that he’s really sorry that he’s going to miss their dinner. Wendy tells him not to worry as his brother needs him. Tripp thanks her for understanding. Tripp doesn’t know exactly when he’ll be back, but asks for a rain check on dinner. Wendy tells him to count on it and to tell Joey that she hopes he gets better soon. Tripp says he will see her soon and kisses her goodbye as he then exits.

Marlena begins to hypnotize Stephanie. Stephanie remembers talking to Kayla on the phone but there’s too much static. Marlena encourages Stephanie to block out all the static until all she hears is Kayla’s voice. Stephanie remembers that Kayla told her a name of who took her. Chad asks who it is. Marlena asks if she still hears the sound of her mother’s voice but she doesn’t so Marlena brings her out of the hypnosis. Marlena asks how she feels. Stephanie says she’s fine and asks if it worked. Chad worries that he messed it up by asking who’s name Stephanie heard and thinks he threw it off. Stephanie confirms that she did hear Kayla say a name. Chad asks if it was Thomas Banks, but Stephanie reveals that she’s pretty sure it was Victor Kiriakis.

Kayla continues reading Victor’s letter to Caroline, saying he knows it may be impossible but he hoped she would consider it. Bo returns and says he got the prisms she needed and another present. Bo then drags Steve in to the wine cellar which shocks Kayla. Bo tells her to stay back and that maybe Steve will live.

Harris and Hope enjoy their dinner and people in the restaurant begin dancing. Harris recalls Hope dancing on a table the last time. One of the men invite Hope to join them. Hope tries to decline but gives in and dances with them. Hope then joins in their tradition of smashing plates. Hope declares she’s not dancing alone and brings Harris into it as well. Hope and Harris hug in the center and end up kissing.

Bo tells Steve and Kayla to behave themselves and leaves them locked up in the wine cellar. Kayla then rushes to wake Steve up as they are reunited.

Days of Our Lives Update

Update written by Joseph

Alex joins Maggie at the Titan office. She notes his black eye has healed while Alex says his bruised ego has as well and he always gets back up. Maggie asks if he’s ready for the board meeting. Alex says he actually wants to sit out on this one if that’s okay. Maggie asks if he has something more important to do. Alex knows she’s had her doubts about him but he promises to prove to her that she made the right decision in keeping him in his position, by closing a huge deal for Titan. Maggie asks what huge deal but Alex says it’s a surprise. Maggie doesn’t like surprises but Alex promises she will love this one.

Tripp goes home and lays on the couch but then Stephanie shows up and says she’s been trying to get ahold of him. Tripp asks if there’s news about Steve and if he found Megan Hathaway. Stephanie confirms that he did, but there’s more. Stephanie reveals that Kayla is alive.

Hope and Harris go to a hotel in Greece. Harris carries her bags and tells her that his room will be right down the hall. Hope thanks him for coming with her. Harris says it’s the least he could do as he knows how important Kayla is to her. Hope says she’s family since she was married to Kayla’s brother, Bo. Harris mentions passing a wedding in the plaza. Hope acknowledges that Greece can be romantic. Harris suggests after they find Kayla, maybe they can hang out for awhile and appreciate the beauty. They agree that they would like that. Harris says he will let her unpack and goes to leave, but stops.

Andrew Donovan goes to the police station and greets Shawn. Shawn says he hasn’t seen him in forever while Andrew jokes about missing the last family reunions. Shawn mentions needing to get everyone together again. Andrew informs him that it looks like his mom is trying to do that now as Hope is in Greece, trying to find Kayla.

Kayla tries to escape the cabin in Greece but Bo appears at the door and asks if she’s going somewhere.

Harris and Hope almost kiss but are interrupted by Steve arriving at the door. Steve tells them that he thinks he’s got a lead on the son of a bitch who took Kayla

Kayla claims to Bo that she was just going out to get fresh air. Bo tells her to let him know and he’ll crack a window. Bo hopes she wasn’t planning to leave, warning that the path is treacherous. Bo tells her that he has dinner but Kayla says she’s not hungry. Bo encourages her to eat because it’s a big night. Bo asks if she’s made any progress on the formula for the serum from the orchid. Kayla responds that she’s working on it. Bo mentions that Dr. Rolf said the formula would reverse aging so it would be worth a fortune that would dwarf Victor’s. Kayla asks if Bo’s goal is just to be richer than Victor. Bo says he just wants to build an empire of his own and getting a back a few years he lost would be a benefit.

Shawn thanks Andrew for the update on the search for Kayla but says he knows he’s here on ISA business. Andrew confirms he’s here to transfer his prisoner. Shawn hopes they lock Megan up for the rest of her miserable life. Shawn and Andrew then head in to the interrogation room where Megan awaits. Megan tells Shawn that she would know his face anywhere and that he reminds her so much of his father.

Tripp is shocked and questions how Stephanie knows Kayla is alive. Stephanie confirms that she talked to her on the phone and heard her voice. Tripp hugs her and calls it unbelievable. Tripp says Steve must be going out of his mind. Stephanie says he’ll be a lot better once he finds her. Tripp doesn’t understand and asks where she is. Stephanie says they don’t know as the connection on the call was horrible, so all they know is that Kayla’s been abducted somewhere in Greece. Tripp asks if Steve is there now. Stephanie confirms that he and Hope just arrived. Stephanie adds that Kayla sounded so scared, so she hopes they get there in time. Tripp encourages that he will and that Kayla has survived this long. Stephanie talks about being unable to sleep since the call and knowing that she’s been alive after all these months. Stephanie wonders if she missed a clue to what Kayla was trying to tell her and wishes she could hear the call over again. Tripp suggests maybe she can.

Harris asks if Steve got a location on Thomas Banks but Steve reveals that Dr. Rolf has been spotted in the area. Harris asks how Steve knows that Rolf is here. Steve says his face is all over the news feeds as he’s an international fugitive, so someone called in a tip while he was ordering takeout but he was able to give the local cops the slip and they believe that he made it off the island. Harris says they were so close. Steve notes that Dr. Rolf was apparently in a hurry and left all his stuff at the hotel, so he’s going to the police station to see if they found anything that can lead them to Thomas Banks and Kayla.

Bo asks Kayla how soon the serum will be ready. Kayla responds that after reviewing Dr. Rolf’s notes, she’s pretty sure there is no chance that she will make that serum for him.

Andrew informs Megan that she is now in the custody of the Salem police department, who will hold her until she is transferred to Statesville prison. Megan continues talking about how Shawn reminds her of his father and remarks that it’s as if she actually succeeded in turning back the clock and made Bo young again. Shawn questions what that is supposed to mean.

Bo asks Kayla what the problem is since she has Dr. Rolf’s notes and he made several batches of the serum. Bo tells her to just follow the directions. Kayla argues that it’s complicated, they’re not in a lab, and the notes are incomplete. Bo asks what she means. Kayla says it’s clear that Dr. Rolf was taking instructions from what was on the three prisms that Megan got last summer. Kayla says she can’t decipher the short hand. Bo questions what she is saying. Kayla declares that without the prisms, there’s no serum. Bo thinks he knows where they might be.

Alex calls the police department in Greece and says he’s ready to move over the funds if he has his items. The officer confirms he does and tells Alex to just wire the money and the prisms are his.

Tripp suggests Stephanie try hypnosis and tells her about how it worked for Allie before. Tripp says Stephanie may have been in shock but her brain may have remembered more than she thinks. Stephanie worries that Marlena just got home but Tripp assures that Marlena would want nothing more than to help find Kayla. Stephanie agrees that she has to try and hopes she remembers something that will bring Kayla home.

Bo tells Kayla that when they left the island, he was going to go get the prisms but they weren’t where he thought they would be. Kayla repeats no prisms, no serum, so there is no reason for him to keep her here. Bo says he might know where they are at as it’s possible that Dr. Rolf left them behind.

Alex prepares his wire transfer to the Greek police. Maggie returns to the office. Alex asks how the board meeting was. Maggie says she was distracted the whole time because she was worried about Alex and his big surprise he has planned. Alex informs her that while she was at the meeting, he cemented the deal, so he’s happy to share. Alex brings up Dr. Rolf. Maggie says he’s currently a fugitive and questions what he has to do with Alex’s deal. Alex reveals that Dr. Rolf was hiding out in Greece but he got away, though he possessed three prisms that are powerful artifacts that Li Shin failed to acquire for DiMera last summer. Maggie mentions hearing of these prisms. Alex talks about how there are reports that the prisms can cure diseases and possibly even reverse aging. Alex asks what if he told her that he was about to secure all of the prisms for Titan.

Shawn questions what Megan meant when she said make Bo young again when she knows he’s been dead for years. Megan claims that she was just saying seeing his face was like traveling back through time. Megan states that she and Bo had a very intense love affair until he settled for Hope. Shawn warns her to keep his parents names out of her mouth as he’s done listening to this nonsense. Shawn argues that she’s hurt his family enough. Megan doesn’t think Hope is suffering that much and says she’s moved on from them and from Bo as well with Harris Michaels. Megan informs Shawn that Harris and Hope are together for real now. Shawn repeats that he’s had enough. Megan mocks him that it’s tough when his mom moves on with a new dad. Shawn warns her to shut her mouth.

Hope and Steve talk about finding Kayla. Steve knows it’s a longshot and maybe implausible to think Dr. Rolf left a clue behind. Steve knows the connection is thin but it’s the only one that they have to Thomas Banks, but Harris says maybe not.

Tripp makes breakfast for Stephanie. Stephanie says she’s not hungry but Tripp encourages her to keep up her strength so that she can help Kayla. Tripp offers to cancel his plans for later so he can make sure she can get in to see Marlena. Stephanie asks if Tripp’s plans are with Wendy. Tripp asks who told her that. Stephanie knows Tripp and Joey were competing for Wendy’s attention in Hong Kong and that Joey backed off, then tried to play matchmaker. Stephanie says that Joey just wants him to be happy and she does too. Stephanie asks if Tripp likes Wendy. Tripp confirms that he does but the problem is that she’s been hanging out with Johnny. Stephanie points out that Wendy is going to dinner with Tripp, so maybe she’s just as interested in him.

Harris reminds Hope of the restaurant where they first met. Harris notes that Megan had him staying in a room upstairs and there was another one of her employees looking for the prisms, Thomas Banks.

Maggie tells Alex that she’s heard rumors of these prisms for years but it sounds like science fiction to her. Alex knows that it’s far fetched but says for the price he’s paying, the risk is worth the reward. Maggie says she will be the judge of that. Maggie asks for the details and who his contact is on this transaction. Alex explains that when he found out Dr. Rolf was in Greece, he reached out to Victor’s people and they put him in touch with the police there and it turned out that when Dr. Rolf evaded capture, he left the prisms in his hotel room. Maggie questions them agreeing to sell the prisms to Alex. Alex confirms that one of the cops did. Alex adds that they are just sitting in an evidence locker and the cops have no idea what they have, so he convinced one of them to sell them to him for a relatively small sum. Alex calls it pretty amazing but Maggie calls it amazingly stupid.

Harris and Hope plan to go show Thomas Banks’ picture around while Steve decides to go see what Dr. Rolf left behind. Hope hopes that one of their longshots pans out.

Bo warns Kayla that he doesn’t have all night and has to get going. Kayla brings up their childhood which gets Bo arguing, but then he tells her it was a nice try to walk him down memory lane to get him to be the old Bo, but he likes who he is. Kayla asks what he’s going to do and if he’s just going to just walk in to a random Greek police station and ask for the prisms. Bo says he’s just going to get her what she needs to decipher Dr. Rolf’s notes and then she will get him what he needs. Kayla questions Bo leaving her in a wine cellar. Bo tells her to try to relax as he then leaves her locked up.

Stephanie asks Tripp about declaring his feelings for Wendy. Stephanie tells him that tonight’s dinner is his once chance to convince her to be with him instead of Johnny. Tripp worries about pressuring her. Stephanie doesn’t think being clear about your intentions is ever a bad thing. Tripp asks if he’s not doing what Alex did to her. Stephanie says that Alex tried to manipulate and control her because that’s who he is. Stephanie adds that unlike Tripp, Alex will do whatever it takes to get what he wants no matter what it costs.

Maggie questions Alex using Titan money to pay off a police officer but Alex argues that it’s not a payoff. Maggie asks if it’s a bribe then. Alex says this is how these people do business and Victor has relationships with them. Maggie questions him not talking to Victor about this. Alex says he wouldn’t go behind her back again because he’s going to prove to her that she can trust him. Maggie accuses him of using Victor’s name and Titan’s money to bribe a government official. Maggie remarks that Alex is now giving a black eye to the company and the family.

Andrew tells Shawn that he knows this is intense and asks if he needs to take a break but Shawn assures that he’s good. Megan comments on Shawn having the same temper as Bo. Shawn declares that he’s done talking about his father as her relationship with him is ancient history. Shawn brings up that Megan’s deal requires her to cooperate fully. Megan says she told Steve that Thomas Banks took Kayla and claims that’s all she knows. Megan adds that he can ask any questions he’d like but it will be a waste of time. Shawn says he will decide that. Megan responds that she is exercising her right to counsel because she wants to make sure this transfer goes off without a hitch. Megan asks for a phone to call her lawyer.

Harris and Hope go to the restaurant where they met. Harris recalls when he first saw her and says no photo could capture the spark in her eye as they then kiss. Hope says they shouldn’t draw attention to themselves while Harris says this is them blending in as a couple caught up in the romance of Greece, so they continue kissing.

Kayla complains about her own brother locking her in a wine cellar to create a youth serum. Kayla then finds a lockbox on one of the shelves of wines.

Bo goes to the police station in Greece and impersonates Shane Donovan. Bo says he’s here about evidence collected from Dr. Rolf’s room and a set of prisms that are extremely powerful and could be dangerous if they fall in to the wrong hands. The cops asks if he has any paperwork of his claim. Bo then questions if he’s saying there’s a problem with a request from the director of the ISA.

Maggie hopes Alex didn’t send anything to this corrupt cop in Greece. Alex states that he was about to when Maggie walked in. Maggie argues that he was doing something so irresponsible. Alex argues that acquiring these prisms for Titan is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change the landscape of science and medicine while also humiliating DiMera Enterprises. Maggie doubts the scientific claims but says it’s still bribery and smuggling. Maggie vetoes Alex’s surprise and orders him to call the dirty cop back to tell him the deal is off. Maggie warns that she will deal with him later and asks if he understands. Alex reluctantly says that he does as Maggie exits the office.

Bo tells the cop that he needs the prisms now as it’s a matter of international security. The cop then gets a call from Alex. He tells Alex that there is a man from the ISA asking about the prisms. Alex begrudgingly tells the cop to go ahead and hand them over because the deal is off and then hangs up. Bo threatens to go over the cop’s head but the cop apologizes for the delay and directs him to wait in a room while he goes to retrieve the prisms for him. After Bo leaves, Steve arrives and tells the cop that he hopes he can help him.

Kayla searches for something open the lockbox she found. She finds a bottle opener and gets the box open.

Tripp offers to go with Stephanie to see Marlena and cancel his plans with Wendy. Stephanie tells him not to do that and thanks him for the offer but assures she’ll be okay. Stephanie adds that if anything happens or she hears from Steve, she’ll let him know. Tripp wishes her luck. Stephanie tells him the same and that Wendy would be very lucky to end up with a guy like him. Tripp thanks her for saying that. Stephanie gets a call and answers, hoping it’s Kayla.

After leaving the interrogation room, Shawn tells Andrew that he’s sorry for not keeping his cool with Megan. Andrew thinks he did fine, given the circumstances. They talk about wishing they could listen to clients and lawyers as it would make things easier. Shawn hopes Megan plays this straight but worries she could use it as another opportunity to go after Hope.

Megan uses her phone call to call Thomas Banks and give him a heads up that a lot of people are looking for him. Megan adds that he can return the favor by doing one little thing for her. Megan instructs Thomas to find Bo Brady and shoot anyone who gets in his way.

Hope asks Harris if he’s ready to do what they came for. Harris confirms that he is and pulls out a photo of Thomas Banks, wondering who they should talk to first. Hope tells him to follow her lead.

Steve introduces himself to the cop and says he’s working with the ISA and needs to see the evidence found in Dr. Rolf’s room. The cop responds that he’s afraid his colleague already made that request as he arrived a few minutes before him. Steve asks if he’s still there. The cop informs him that “Mr. Donovan” is in the other room. Steve questions Shane being there. The cop suggests Steve join him while they check to see what’s taking so long on their end. Steve goes to the room looking for Shane, but is shocked to find Bo instead.
