THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Good morning. You are at my place. Remember? I brought you here last night. Yeah. Yeah. I slept on the couch. Sorry, I took your bed. No, don’t pee. I didn’t hear a peep out of you all night. I assume you got some rest. Yeah. Good. How you feeling? Like I got hit by a truck. Coffee smells really good though. And fresh algae.

You’re spoiling me. That’s what friends are for.

That was really tough to see. I know. Our beloved home in ashes and cinders. It was a blow, a blow to all of us. Well, the blessing is that you all made it out alive. Absolutely. But what kind of a criminal, what kind of a sociopath sets fire to a house with, with innocent people inside? The worst kind. Look, I just really hope that this investigation produces some solid leads.

I’m not holding my breath. But we’re moving forward. Yeah. Gonna restore, repair, rebuild, refurbish. I’m excited about that. So tell me, what’s up with this mysterious time capsule? Oh, the message from my grandparents. It’s great, but we have no idea what the message is. I’m sure they didn’t intend for us to find out by setting the house on fire.

So, what do you think will happen first? The house will get finished or you’ll find the key to this time capsule? Time will tell. Tell me some more about Polina. Yep, she does not need a heart transplant, really. They’re keeping under close surveillance, but no, it’s a miracle. It’s a do over. Abe got his memory back.

Yes, yes, you should see Abe. I mean, he is practically dancing on air. His smile, it could light up a city. Always could. Yeah. I mean, we go back a long way, and Speaking of Abraham and Paulina, you know what they just love? They love having you and Lonnie and the twins around. I love that so much. Do you suppose there’s any chance in the world that you would move back to Salem?

Um, sorry, Grandma, but No. It’s not gonna happen.

Those are so delicious. Thank you for making these again for the kids. They couldn’t get enough of them, and neither could I. You know, creating culinary delights is one of my great joys. Be careful. You might get a permanent job here. Fortunately, it would be a lot easier, though, I think. One house has been filled to the brim with guests.

Oh, I love it. It’s wonderful to have all four children running around. It makes me feel like a real papu. I always hoped for grandchildren. Alas, it was never meant to be.

I’m so sorry about your daughter, Constantine. What a terrible tragedy. You know, it is not true what they say that time heals all wounds. Not for me. You see, I miss her more, not less, as time goes on.

Thank you, Nora. Are you sure that you’re up for this? What, breakfast with Eric? Yeah, why wouldn’t I be? Well, you’ve been through so much with Steve lately. Um, I don’t know. How are you sleeping? Not well as I understand. You still having those nightmares?

They’re getting worse, in fact. I’m not too surprised. Having to save Wendy and Tripp from that tank. Bring them back from the From the edge of death.

Not to give anybody nightmares, I’m I’m imagining that triggered a lot of your own bad memories. Yeah, it did, it did. And you know what, I’d rather not talk about it right now, is that okay? Sure. Anytime you’re ready. I’ll let you know, okay? Sure. Let’s not keep Eric waiting.

Well, how is my grandson doing? Oh, you’re talking about the most beautiful kid in the world? That is the one. He’s been fantastic. He’s holding his head up now. Like a champ. Hey, thank you for your help with Lucas. Yeah, of course. So is there any chance of him coming out of hiding soon? Well, your guess is as good as mine, but, uh, with Clyde out of prison, I’d rather he just stay put.

Yeah, I can’t believe Clyde escaped. I mean, how could that even happen? With a whole lot of serious help from outside. Missing Salem Dr. Tripp Johnson and Salem Police Tech Specialist Wendy Shin rescued at Salem’s Old Brewery on the outskirts of the city. Thank God. Kidnapper identified but nowhere to be found.

An investigation is underway to determine whether the incident is linked to the Statesville prison escape of notorious criminal Clyde Weston. Son of a bitch. Like

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

So, any news on Tripp and Wendy? Well, I was at the hospital earlier. And? And, they’re doing pretty well, all things considered. You know, we got there just in time, I implied. Leaving them to die, and then that crooked cop. I mean, Goldman fooled everybody. I swear to God, if I ever get my hands on either one of them, I am going Get in line.

What about, what about the manhunt? Any news on, um, where our modern day Bonnie and Clyde might be? Not that anyone’s shared with me. And that escape. I mean, Clyde, he had to have outside help, but I don’t think Goldman could have pulled it off alone. Do you think Stephan had something to do with this?

Stephan? Why would you think that? I mean, we both know Clyde had Stephan under his thumb. Yeah. Um.

I don’t think that, um, Steppen had anything to do with it. I mean, and besides, I mean, what is he going to know about pulling off a prison break, huh?

All right, you know, time to take your pills. Oh, okay. Thank you, Nurse Nightingale. Yeah, wait, wait, wait. Nurse Nightingale, really? Yeah, I had to, uh, read, uh, her biography. I think it was, uh, sixth grade. I don’t know, something just Stuck with me about her story. You know, she was a strong, empowered woman. It was a compliment.

I took it as such. Now stop stalling and take your meds, Commander. Very good.

Grandma, I was waiting to tell you this, but I got a promotion. A promotion? A big one. A lot more responsibility. I’ll be working with the FBI and the DOJ. Which means I’ll be doing a lot more traveling, domestically and internationally. Is this something you want? Absolutely. Yes. Oh, my beautiful, brave grandson.

I’m so incredibly proud of you. Thank you. But I’m proud of you. I mean, the way you’ve been handling this house fire, you’re incredibly strong. The way you handle everything, you’re so brave. It’s the family that makes me brave. Oh, darling. Go tell Doug about this promotion. Oh, this is so funny.

Your compassion touches me.

I, I, I know what it’s like to lose a child. I’ve lost two, as you know. But you still have your wonderful Sarah. Yeah, she’s a blessing. Yes. Although I do think I interfere in her life too much. I, uh, I focus too much on her. Yeah. Now that her sister and brother are gone. Well, I doubt that. Sarah adores you.

Then again, who doesn’t?

What are you thinking? Oh,

I’m just, you know, I’m, I’m reminded of, um, the power of touch. Um, I’ve read a lot of articles lately about how important it is for everyone later, you know, in their later years. That touch can be the most powerful ways to communicate emotion.

I’m grateful to you, Constantine, and not just for the comfort of our hands touching, but also all the stories that you told me about Victor, and then the latest story about your daughter. Katerina,

you’ve touched my heart. Oh, you have touched me as well, Maggie. I cherish our friendship.

I cherish you. You

are a very special woman, Maggie. Well, I’m, I’m, uh, I’m grateful that I’m special in your eyes. However, I must be honest. As much as I’ve tried to fight it, as much as I hoped that this guilt would eventually subside, it hasn’t.

Constantine being close to another man, to someone other than my husband, my late husband at that, I feel Like it’s a betrayal. I feel like I’m betraying Victor.

Maggie, did you not tell me that Victor loved you deeply, unselfishly? So, why would he want you to continue in life without being cherished?

Victor not want you to be happy?

Did I hurt, oh, did I hurt you? No. No. No, it only hurts, uh, when I move. Talk or breathe. Not when you snore. Wait, don’t do that. Don’t make me laugh. That hurts. Sorry. What are you doing? Oh God. It’s okay. It’s as good as any nurse at the hospital. So thank you. I really appreciate it. Yeah. I Thank you. You have to take that.

Might be a trip. Uh, hello? Can you talk? Uh, well, I’m in the middle of something right now. Well, wrap it up as soon as you can. We need to meet face to face. Okay. When? One hour. I’ll be at my office, waiting. Okay, good. I will, uh, I’ll see you then. Okay, I am going to go meet Steve and we’re going to go visit Tripp together.

So, um, you’re going to be okay for a few hours by yourself? I made it this far. Yeah. Call me if you need anything, alright?

Oh, um, I’m so happy you both made it. Hey, so are we. Hey, hey. Buddy. Please, join us. It is great to be celebrating something positive for a change. And, we do have a lot to celebrate. Yes, we do. Matter of fact, last night when we were getting ready to go to bed, Abe called. I mean, that voice sounded just like the Abe we’ve all known and loved for all these years.

Yeah, he left me a message, and you could hear it in his voice how relieved he was to be himself again. Yeah. I’ve checked on Paulina. She’s doing amazingly well. Just blessings and miracles. Yes, and now a christening of our own little blessing and miracle. Jude Verdi. You know, Joan and I would love to host a little celebration after the ceremony, if that’s alright with you.

That’s very thoughtful, Mom. But Nicole’s already offered to host a party at the DiMera mansion. Oh. I hope that’s okay. I’m just surprised. No, I think it’s a great idea. It’s larger than the townhouse. Alright, any, any thoughts about godparents? Yes, actually. Sloan, she asked Melinda Trask to be godmother.

Really? Well, they’ve gotten really close lately. I mean, she was the one who found Jude for us. Oh, of course. But I do plan on asking Brady to be Godfather. Oh, that’s nice. I’m sure he’ll be stoked about that. Yeah, I hope so. John, you look beat. I don’t know, why wouldn’t you? Trip, Wendy, damn. That was some rescue.

Yeah, you’re a real hero, John. No, no, no, no, no hero here. Far from it. You know, I have been meaning to ask you, with that beautiful red mane of yours, are you of Irish descent? Hmm? Actually, I have no idea. My parents, um, they died when I was quite young. I grew up on a farm and I never knew any of my other biological relatives.

My main name is Simmons. Um, it could be Irish, I guess. Or Welsh. Or Scottish. Definitely Anglo Saxon. Yeah. Well, maybe I should have my DNA tested. Oh, , be careful. You never know who you might end up having as a relative. I myself believe I am a descendant of Les and the, the son of Zeus, the, the king of Gods.

Um, but then again, I, I could be a descendant of Hades and we know who He’s the ruler of . Well, although wherever we’re descendant from you and I. It doesn’t affect anything, does it? I mean, you can’t change the past. No, you can’t change it.

Sometimes there is something in our past that is so foul, we will never ever forget it.

Yes, send the arrangement to Paulina Price. The mayor, yes. And sign the card. Um, nothing but goodness and love. Maggie Kiriakis. That’s right. Thank you. Is your friend allowed to have flowers now? Oh yeah, she is. And she happens to love orchids. Oh my goodness! Come in! Have you had breakfast? Oh, we have blueberry muffins and sweet bits.

Mmm, well then come and sit down. Oh no, I can’t. I’m actually here just to pack our things. We leave this afternoon. Oh, you’re leaving so soon? Well, he has to because he has a wonderful new job. Tell him, tell him about the promotion. Tell. Well, for one, I’ll be spending a lot more time on international cases.

Impressive. With whom? Uh, the FBI. I’m a federal agent. Yes, he’s been a federal agent for a long time, but he’s done so well that he has been moved up. And he is going to have a new job with a great deal of promotion. Power and responsibility. He’s gonna rid the whole world of evil. Okay, Grandma. Anyone can do it.

You can’t, Eli.

You know, maybe Jude can wear the same christening gown that you wore when you were a baby. You still have it? Of course I do. It’s in a, in a bin in the basement. I’ll make sure I pull it out. Oh. Hey! Wow, looky here. Steve, sit, join us. We’re helping Harry plan Jude’s christening. Oh, well, you know, I’d love to join in on that, but, um, actually I saw John’s car outside.

We have a couple of things to discuss about a case. You mind if I borrow him for an hour or two? No, just return him in one piece. Hey, Steve, we’ll see you at the christening moment. I wouldn’t miss it.

So what’s up? Ava’s meeting us at the office in 20 minutes.

I trust you, Ava. I do, but dammit, you’re up to something. I know you are.

Grandma, it takes a hell of a lot more than one person to rid the world of evil. Don’t sell yourself short. You wouldn’t have this responsibility if you weren’t the best of the best. Okay. Spoken like a true loving and biased grandmother. You have made your family very proud, Eli. I I must be going. It was lovely to meet you and your lovely wife and children.

And, uh, I have to make a call to Greece before it’s too late in the evening.

We heard about Paulina’s recovery. Abe must be over the moon. He is. Uh, Lonnie, Schnell, I mean, we all are. Yeah. And I heard about Abe, too. He remembers everything. He does. It sucks that we can’t spend more time with them, but with this new job, I gotta get back to D. C. Yeah. But I’m thrilled that we’re leaving happy and not heartbroken.

Thank God. Thank you again, Maggie, for taking a sit. We really appreciate it. That’s Maggie’s new occupation. She’s running the Kiriakis Mansion bed and breakfast for displaced loved ones. Hey, hey, I am delighted with this new occupation. And I’m so happy that you came back, all of you. Please, I love being surrounded by family.

Come on, Rafe, nothing? Seriously, no leads? I mean, what about past hideouts or places Clyde used to visit? Okay, okay, just please call me if there’s any news. Thank you.

Well, there she is. Okay, let’s make this quick. I want to check in on Tripp and then I got some things I need to take care of. Then let’s get down to work. Okay. Yeah, speaking of which, after that stunt you pulled, we’re just lucky no one’s on to us. Everyone assumes Officer Goldman engineered Weston’s escape.

What he has over her, I can’t imagine. Oh, well, from what it looked like at the airfield, she’s his girlfriend. What? I didn’t see that coming. Okay, okay, okay, did you see anything else? I mean, did they say or do anything that would indicate where they’re headed or what their plans are? No, no, nothing, okay?

Just that monster was taunting me about my son being dead. Oh, my God. You realize that we’re in this mess because we trusted you, right? We didn’t expect you to stab us in the back. Okay, you know what? Get off your high horse, both of you, okay? You double crossed me first. The original plan was we were going to bust Weston out of prison and then let him go, so I just went back to the original plan.

Besides, We had no choice. There’s always a choice. Okay, well, you know what? Weston’s in the wind now. Nothing we can do. That doesn’t make it okay.

I can’t do this, man. We gotta make this right. I can’t live with myself. Knowing that SushiPath is out there destroying people’s lives because of us. I’m with you. You know, just a mere fact that we assisted in a prison escape. We scratched that. We didn’t assist in anything. We made it happen. No, it’s wrong.

It’s wrong. And it’s not what we do. Oh, so holier than thou. Okay, you know what? We have all three done things that we are not proud of. Okay? Some really bad things. Yeah, some really bad things. But those things are in the past. Not the past. John.

You okay?

Alright, the car’s all packed up. I’m picking Lonnie and the twins up at the hospital. Oh my goodness, it was wonderful to see you all. Please, please come back soon. I will, and you know I’m going to keep sending you pictures. You’d better. Grandma.

So proud of you. Just about to burst. And so happy. That your family’s all united and, and you know that’s the way it should be. Yeah, so am I. I love you. I love you. See you later. Bye.

Oh, oh Maggie. Uh, I know you have a million people living in this house right now, but without Eli and his family it’s gonna be a, an empty place for me and

Do I sound silly? Not at all. I know what it’s like to live in a house full of people. And still feel lonely.

Fatherhood looks good on you. Well, I’m fulfilled. It’s just, you know, June and I have an amazing connection and I just, I just really love that feeling. I’m so glad to hear that. Sloane, how is she? Um What? What did I miss? Go ahead, tell Dad. I had supper at their house a little while back and She got bombed.

Sloane got ways to that. Look, it isn’t so crazy unusual. I mean, she’s got a very taxing, demanding job. But she’s trying to be a perfect mom. What else is there? Well, I, it’s just sometimes I think she gets jealous of Jude. Oh. Have you two had that conversation? Yeah, I tried to explain it to her. It’s, I just, okay, maybe I am a bit obsessed with Jude.

I mean, I hate letting him cry or being apart from him. I understand that. Yeah, have I ever thanked you too? For what? Just being amazing parents, to me, you know. For being loving and so kind. You made it so easy, you always have. And you have thanked us. Many, many times in fact. But, Always nice to hear.

Voicemail. Again. Stefan! Quit blowing me off, okay? You call me, or you fine me. If you don’t, you’re not gonna like what I’m gonna do.

Right, no one but the three of us can ever know that we were behind the prison break. Oh yeah? Well, there’s still the issue of your mob pals helping us out. Okay, don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of it. You keep saying that, Ava. But what’s it really gonna cost you? Whatever the price is, it is worth it because we saved our son.

Okay? Are we done here? For now. I’m going back to the hospital. Alright, I’ll head out with you. You coming, John? I’ve got a few things I need to follow up on here. Okay. You take it easy, man. Yeah, you too.

I need to see you. Copy to Oblige, where are you? Black Patch. I’ll be right there.

Hey, what’s up with John? Not sure what you mean. Really? Okay, well, you know, you know him a lot better than I do, but sometimes it seems like he just checks out. Yeah, well, I’ve known John for over 30 years, and sometimes he’s a mystery even to me. Yeah, right. Okay. Um, hey, you know, uh, By the way,

You know when you pulled Trip out of the beer tank, and he wasn’t breathing, I, uh, I just about stopped breathing too. But we brought him back. No, you didn’t. You did, so thank you. I am incredibly grateful to you, and I just hope that you know that. I do. And hey, we, we got Wendy to thank too for being smart with that sign language.

Yeah, she’s a very smart, smart young lady, that’s for sure. Look, look, I know, I know that you, you disapprove of the way that I handle things. Okay, no, forget that. It’s an understatement. You, you, you hate the way I handle things, but look, I just need you to know that the safety trip was the only thing that was on my mind.

Okay, hey, boo. I didn’t mean to drag you into this mess, you know that, right? But if you had just trusted me, maybe John and I could have saved him. Without letting Weston go. Yeah, or maybe not.

Okay. Agree to disagree. You’re going to the hospital. Yeah, maybe a little later. I just have a few things I need to check on at the house first.

Been a while since I’ve caught up with you. So, as they say in New Jersey, How you doing?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What do you mean, you can’t? You can’t tell the truth? Holly, this is my life we’re talking about. Right now I have no life. I am stuck in some halfway house for no reason, even though I didn’t do anything wrong. I want my life back, Holly.

Okay, okay. I’ll tell them the drugs weren’t yours. I just, I can’t tell them they were mine.

No, no, but they’re still gonna think that they were mine. Don’t you get it?

Hey, please. We can make up another story.

Why do we have to make up a different story? Why can’t you just tell the truth?

Because Look, I overheard my mom talking to EJ when she thought I was sleeping, and she was going on and on about how disappointed she’d be if it turned out those drugs were mine.  And I mean, you know, when she lost her baby, she totally fell apart. It was horrible what that did to her. And then, and then with me almost dying? She’s been through so much lately, and if she thought I was responsible for what happened to me? I can’t do that to her, Tate. I just can’t. Because she would never trust me again.

Oh my God. So, you are going to sacrifice me? You are going to totally ruin my life so that you can what, Holly? Keep up appearances? Pretend that you are just this little golden child?

It’s not like that.

Then what is it like, Holly? Please, please, you have to help me. You are the only one that can solve this.

Please. Tate, please don’t make me do this.

What is all What the hell? EJ, it’s not what It’s not what it looks you get in here, Tate? I’m calling the police. No!

Oh, coffee. At this hour, you’re going to work, aren’t you? I am. I have the overnight tonight, and you are going to the gym. I’m going to the gym. I’m going to go lift some weights and, uh, wear myself out. Good. Well, good luck with that, Brady. I’ll see you later. See ya. Uh, uh, sir, can I, can I just Do you have a minute?

Yeah, I don’t have to be at work for another half hour. What’s up? I, uh, actually had a medical question for you. About comas.

Are they breathing? Ava, please stay back! Are they breathing? Please tell me! I already did! Call again! Come on, keep calling me! Yes, hi, hi, I just called a few minutes ago. Yeah, about two people we found out at the old brewery near the airport. Why isn’t anyone here yet? Okay, well, one of them is my son. You need to come now.

Please, well, please hurry. Come quick. Okay, they said they’re on their way. What is happening? Come on. Get back here. Come on. Come on, buddy. Come on. Come on. Oh, dear God. Dear God, please save my boy. Got nothing over here, buddy. Come on, buddy. Come on, Wendy, come on. Come on, come on, Wendy. Come on. There’s something out of here.

Tripp! Wait, we need some serious medical help here now. Tripp!

Yeah, this is Commissioner Hernandez. We need two RAs, backup, and the CSU at the old brewery off Foxhorn Road by the airport. Now!

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

I was just wondering, um, based on your professional experience, can a coma affect Holly Jonas’s memory? Brady, I can’t discuss that with you. It’s doctor patient confidentiality. Right, of course, um. Let me pose it more generally then. Okay. Can a person, can a person’s memory be affected by a comb? Well, um, I’m, I’m not a neurologist.

Right. So, that feels important to say. Um, but what I do know is that, There is a potential for that. Um, a coma can cause a wide range of cognitive and physical impairments, which can include memory loss. Uh, short term. A long term? Well, that depends on the severity of the brain damage that caused the coma and how long a person’s in a coma.

So her, but her memories could come back. Sarah, my, my, my, my son’s future depends upon Holly remembering what happened the night she OD’d. Right. So. Right, no, I, I understand Brady. And I am. I am so sorry because I can’t even imagine how hard that has to be. Um, you know, like I said, neurology is not my specialty.

But what I do know from my limited experience, once a coma patient regains consciousness, um, their memories could come back quickly, gradually, or sometimes not at all. Yeah, I read that online. But I just, I just wanted to get a professional’s opinion, so. Sarah, thank you. Anytime. Brady, I, I really do hope everything works out for Tate.

Thanks.

But they were her drugs, not mine. Dad, you have to believe me. I hate I believe you. Why wouldn’t I? Alright, your mother believes you too. The problem is, how do we prove it? If Holly won’t admit it, do you have any proof at all? Do you have anything? My word. That’s all. It’s my word against hers. EJ, please don’t call the police.

Tate didn’t do anything wrong. He broke into my home. I know, but will you just give us a chance to explain? Please just hang up. Let us tell you why he’s here.

Let’s hear it. Sir, I’m sorry to disrupt your evening. I just wanted to see Holly. I’ve been so worried about her. Yeah, I bet you are worried. Since you’re the one who pushed the drugs on her that caused her to OD. She nearly died because of you. No, that’s not true. You have it all wrong about the night Holly OD’d.

The drugs that she took They weren’t mine. I swear they weren’t mine. What is all the ruckus? Tate, my god, what are you doing here? Breaking and entering into Holly’s bedroom window, apparently. I just wanted to see her. I, I’ve missed her so much. Look, I’ve heard enough. I’m calling the police and you’re not going to stop me this time.

Mom, do something. Please stop it. No, I can’t do that, honey. And Tate, I, I’m gonna call your father.

Nicole, what’s up? Brady, thank God you answered. I need you to get to the DiMera mansion right away. Tate’s here. What? He broke in the house to see Holly. Dammit. And EJ’s calling the police right now. Alright, I’m on my way.

Okay, you too. Tell me what’s really going on.

Oh, it’s a trap, baby. Baby, please come back to us. You’re my life, you’re my heart. Please, please come back to us. Check her.

We got a pulse. Wendy’s got a pulse. Come on, Kato. Come on, Kato. I’m doing good. Did you hear that? Wendy’s coming back. Come on, now. You gotta fight and come back to us. Come on. Come on, Tripp. You fight. Fight. Wendy, I’m here. I’m out here. We’re here for you. If you can hear me, squeeze my hand, alright?

She did it! She did it! Wendy’s back! You’re doing great, kiddo. You’re doing great, kiddo. Come on, hang in there with us. Come on. You’re doing great. You’re doing great. No, no, no, no, no. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You’re doing fine. Just stay right there. That’s it. That’s it. You’re doing good. You’re doing good. You’re okay.

He’s right here. He’s right here. Dad’s helping him. Is he okay? The only way you can help Tripp is for you to get stronger. And the way you’re going to do that, you’re going to focus on Wendy. You’re going to focus on me right now. And we’re going to breathe together. Are you ready? We’re going to inhale slowly.

Here we go. Inhale. Come on. That’s it. Come on. Exhale. That’s it. Exhale. One more time. Inhale. I got a pulse. Nice. What are you doing? I got a pulse. Baby Tripp! Can you hear me? Yeah. Breathe, bro. Breathe, bro. Breathe. There he is. There you go. Do it, buddy. Where’s, where’s, where’s Wendy? Where’s, where’s my wife? Hey,

Wendy’s here, Tripp. She’s okay. Yes. It’s all good. It’s all right. It’s okay. Thank God. Baby, you called her your wife. Well, he just said that because he hoped someday she will be. Right? Right now, we’re just relieved. I found you, and you’re okay.

Yeah, Jay. Yeah, we found them both, and it looks like they’re gonna be okay. Good job, good job. Peter?

Alma. Alright, just stay on top of it and call me if there are any updates. What happened? Clyde Weston escaped from Statesville. Jay,

do you have any intel on that? Well, it just happened, I mean. I’m sure they’re looking at prison surveillance videos as we speak. I think you had help from Goldman? Yeah, who else?

Dad, you called him. He has the right to know what’s going on with his son. Are you okay? Dad, I swear, all I wanted to do was see Holly. I hadn’t seen her since she got back. I wanted to make sure that she was all right. The only thing he wanted to make sure of was that Holly would lie for him and tell everyone that the drugs that nearly killed her were hers.

Holly, I heard what you said when I opened your door before. You said Tate don’t make me do this. All I wanted her to do was tell the truth. I just want my life back. You can tell your story to the police. Holly, please, please just tell them what happened. It’s okay. They’re gonna take me back to jail.

Please, Holly.

There he is, officers. Take Black. Arrest him. I

want that man arrested for breaking and entering. EJ, please, can we please talk about this for a second? There is nothing to talk about, Brady. Your son has been a plague on my family the moment he arrived in Salem, and we’ve all had enough. He left the halfway house he was confined to, without permission obviously, and then proceeded to break into my home and harass my stepdaughter.

EJ, he broke into your house because he was falsely accused and he’s desperate. He’s a good, honest kid. He wouldn’t have risked everything to break in here if he wasn’t telling the truth. All my son wants is for Holly to finally tell the truth about how and why she OD’d on New Year’s Eve. But we already know how and why she OD’d.

Your son pushed drugs on her. That is why she OD’d, and that is why she ended up in a coma for several months. And Tate only broke in here to try and cover his arse! Stop it! That’s not true! Tate Honey? Polly? Polly? Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Honey!

Yep. Both Wendy and Tripp are alert. They’re doing well, getting checked out as we speak. We should be able to interview them sometime tonight. Listen to me, Jada. I need you to stay on the warden. Alright, we’re gonna need to interview guards, prisoners, support staff. Yeah. As soon as possible. Alright, I’ll see you at the station.

Bye. Any update on Clyde? Not yet. Hell of a start, huh? Breaking out of Statesville. Sure was.

Why haven’t we heard anything yet? Listen, Tripp and Wendy are in good hands, Ava. We need to trust the doctors to do their job. Yeah, speaking of trust What the hell, Ava? We had a plan here. Yeah, some plan. Tripp and Wendy might have died if I hadn’t thought like Clyde, so don’t Hi, sorry, I hope I’m not interrupting, but I do have good news.

You can see Tripp and Wendy now.

So, um, how, how is Tripp? He’s gonna be okay, isn’t he? Yeah, he’s doing well. He’s resting comfortably. Obviously, he’s been through quite an ordeal, as you know. So, keep your visit short, please. He needs the rest, as does Wendy. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Dr. Horton. Yeah, he’s in room 441. Great, thanks. Thanks. So, do you think maybe Wendy’s up for a visit also?

Mm hmm. Judging by my conversation earlier, I think she is. She’s in room 445. Nice. Thank you, Doctor. You got it. Detective Michaels. Yes. How are you feeling? Uh, I’m good. You know, I’m getting stronger every day. Good. Yeah, I’m glad to hear that. I would like to get you checked out, though. So, go talk to Wendy, and then meet me in exam room C.

It’s just down the hall.

I’m awake, Mom. You don’t have to tiptoe. How did you know that it would It’s the perfume you wear. It’s kind of a dead giveaway. Well, no sneaking up on our boy, I guess. How you doing, sweetheart? What can I get you? You need some extra pillows? You need some water? Mom, I’m good, Mom. Thank you. Yeah? How you feeling, son?

Besides tired. I’m just glad to be lying down in an actual bed. Oh, baby. I don’t think I’ve ever been that scared in my life. But your father

Your father saved your life.

Hi, it was a group effort. What’s important now is we found you in time. You’re okay. Hey, Lindy. Hey, Mr. Black, Commissioner. How you

doing there, kiddo? I’m not doing great physically. Really? I’m just beyond relieved and grateful. To be able to breathe. You guys, you really saved my life. And Tripp’s. All in a day’s work. Hey, it’s my line. What do you say? I know you both went above and beyond, so really, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

No, no, no. Having you alive and well, that’s all the thanks that we need. Yeah. So, uh, should I contact your parents? Well, actually, I tried to call my mom, but I got her voicemail and I didn’t get into anything in the message, but I just wanted her to know that I was okay. And Tripp, he’s okay, too. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

In fact, his parents are in there with him right now.

So, Wendy, you feel up to talking about what happened? Yeah, yeah, sure. What happened was, Officer Goldman found Trip and I at the geocaching event on Valentine’s Day. And she told us that Trip was in danger. That we had to follow her to a safe house for protection. She said it was a direct order from you, Commissioner.

Yeah, well, um, Yeah, we just learned that she was a bad cop and, uh, Wish we were known sooner. I wish I had too. I was so sure she was one of the good guys. Yeah, right. Well, she obviously is not. In fact, we’re just learning about all the criminal activities that she’s been up to. But, Wendy, kudos on that clue.

Well, it was one of the first words I learned to sign in my college ASL class. Well, you know, I got this feeling that Abe and Steve are going to set you up with a lifetime of beer to memorialize that brilliance. Am I missing something here? Didn’t you know about the video that Officer Goldman had Tripp record for Ava?

Yeah, I did. Okay, well I guess what you didn’t notice was me standing behind Tripp signing the word beer. Wendy’s quick thinking is what led us to the brewery. Wow, Wendy, that was really impressive. Thanks, Commissioner. Yeah, then again, maybe we’d have found you sooner if Ava had just Shared the video with us from the beginning.

Holly, Holly, are you okay? Holly, honey, talk to me. Everyone back off. Especially you. AJ! Oh my gosh. Come on. Get him out of here, please. Wait, wait. Hold on. Wait, stop. Wait, hold on, hold on. Judge, that’s a misunderstanding. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have a right to an attorney.

Commissioner,

please don’t be upset with Ava, okay? Officer Goldman told us that no cops could know about the video. Or else we’d be dead. Yeah, but Ava knew she could trust me. But it was a happy ending, right? We found Wendy and Tripp in time and they’re both okay? Okay. Look, I know that you’re close with Ava. If I find out that she had anything to do with Weston’s escape.

Where’s this coming from? Harris, come on. Really? Well, you don’t think that it’s just a little convenient that at the same time Weston escapes? Triple window, you’re found. Okay, do you have evidence linking Ava to Clyde’s escape? No, not at the moment. But we both know what Ava’s capable of.

Thank you guys for not giving up on us. Either of you. You know, toward the end there, uh, Wendy and I were for sure that we were going to tie in that tank. Well, you know, it was Wendy’s clue with the sign language that saved you. We didn’t have time to plan anything. Officer Goldman had, uh, I spoiled the gunpoint and she told me to read the script as written.

And, you know, Wendy acted on her own. Thank God she did. She’s a very brave young woman. It’s a damn good thing Goldman didn’t notice what she was doing back there. Yeah, she was trying to be, uh, not too obvious to tip off Goldman, but she wanted to Be obvious enough so that you guys could catch it. Almost didn’t at first.

But, your father and John, they were relentless about analyzing that video. Thank God they did not give up. You’re counting on that? Yeah. You know what I’m counting on? I’m counting on you coming home real soon. So, what you need to do right now, sweetheart, is just relax, okay?

Mind if I stay, though? I mean, even if I’m just watching you sleep. Stay as long as you want, Mom. You too, Dad.

You’re a very lucky guy, Detective. Those stitches weren’t meant to be put through the ringer. You’re Yeah, I get that, but hey, I’m still standing. Um, okay, so this is for an antibiotic. And this is for a pain medicine. The antibiotic you have to take. The pain medicine you should only take if necessary. Got it.

I would also prescribe bed rest, but I feel like I’d be wasting my breath. Uh, you would be. Well, I admire your dedication to your job. Uh, I can say the same for you. Seriously though, Harris, I do hope that you’ll get to the bottom of your own case. You know that Xander’s been held in jail without bail ever since you were shot.

Uh, yeah. And I’m, I’m sorry about that. I’m sure my fellow officers would just follow the trail of evidence. The evidence that lined up perfectly to point a finger at Xander? And since I know he’s innocent, I’m Since you’re up and moving around, I thought maybe you would remember who did shoot you. No, so far I, I don’t.

Well, I hope you do remember soon because Victoria really misses her dad. And Xander’s absolutely crazy about her. He’s missing a lot of firsts. Again, I’m really sorry. Thank you. And, and from a medical perspective, I do understand that your memory of that night might elude you, but you were really experienced, Detective Harris, so I have every faith you’ll keep investigating until you figure out who really did shoot you.

So that Victoria and I can bring her dad home, where he belongs.

Well, Wendy seemed in pretty good spirits. Yeah, trip two. Boy, those kids sure are resilient, aren’t they? Yeah. I guess when they’re feeling stronger, we can get more information from them. Yeah, well, I’m not so sure Kyme’s on our side, partner. What are you talking about? No one knows who was involved in Weston’s escape.

Rafe is suspicious of Ava. Based on what? Previous experience with her, cops intuition. I don’t know, I just got the definite vibe that he’s about to start digging. Oh, boy. And his digging could lead straight back to us. Damn it. We’ve made ourselves a serious mistake here, partner. We let the devil loose. God only knows what’s gonna happen next.

Hey.

Well? You all checked out? As ordered. Any updates on the escape? I’m heading to the station now. Gotta put a task force together. This investigation’s gonna be massive. Copy that. I’m gonna hit the pharmacy first, I’ll be right behind you. Mmm, nope, no you’re not. What does that mean? That means that you are not going to the station.

You are going home to get some rest. Doctor’s orders. And mine. Oh, you’re pulling rank on me. Yeah, absolutely. I am. Listen, I need you. But I also need you to be healed up and rested, okay? I can’t take the chance of losing you. You hear me? Alright? Got it.

Hey, Dr. Horton. Hey, Trent. Sorry if I woke you up, but how are you feeling? I’d feel a lot better if I could see Wendy. Think you could take me over to see her? I can do even better.

I’m here for you, Moana. I’m so excited to see you. You didn’t think that they would keep you away from me for long, did you?

May I interest you into a trip to the City of Lights, my sweet? Oh, me oui, mon amour. I’ll go anywhere. With you, Tripp Johnson. Right now, I think I’m just fine being here looking into your eyes. You know, not having a panic attack, not struggling to breathe. I’ll make sure that you never have to suffer through any of that again.

But we made it, Tripp. And struggling through that with you? I couldn’t have asked for a better beer tank, buddy. Me neither. I love you so much. I love you too.

Okay, well, your pulse feels normal. I told you, I’m okay, Mom. Alright, but just to be safe, I’m gonna call Sarah. No, you don’t need to bother Dr. Horton. I’ll be okay, I promise. Alright, well, fine. I won’t call her, but I will leave the monitor on just in case you need anything. And we will be right down the hall.

Actually, there is one thing. What is it? Please don’t send Tate to jail. I promise you, he didn’t do anything wrong. Look, honey, why don’t we talk about this in the morning, okay? Mom, shh. No, honey, shh. Listen, you just, you need to rest. Just close your eyes, okay? You don’t understand, Mom. Please, please. Listen to your mother, Holly.

She knows what’s best for you. Alright?

Please, someone might see us. My mom almost did. By the way, my parents are both addicts, so there is no way I’m taking those and neither should you. Oh, come on. They’re just some ADHD meds I got from someone at school. Everyone does it. Yeah, well, not me. And I didn’t think that you did either. Really? Because I offered you weed like your first day in Salem.

That is not weed, Holly. Those are amphetamines. Very mild ones. Look, they, they just make me feel better, okay? And they give me energy. Wait, so you need to feel better and have more energy tonight when you’re with me? Tate, you don’t understand. They’ll just, they’ll make things more fun for both of us. Yeah, no, not for me.

I’m out. Fine, Mr. Goody Two Shoes. I’m, I’m going to the bathroom. Don’t be sorry. Just Help me, Holly. You have to tell them the truth. Tell them What, exactly? That the pills were yours. That your ODing was because of the pills that you had on you that night, New Year’s Eve. Holly. You have to tell them that I had nothing to do with it.

I can’t.

Thank you. Thought I’m worried about Holly. You need to make sure that she’s okay. I’m sure EJ and Nicole have taken care of her. But what if she slipped back into the coma? Tate, it looked like she just fainted. Okay, right now my focus is on you. What’s gonna happen to me? Jim is, uh, Jim is gonna give me a minute with you before you have to, uh No.

Dad, no. They can take me back to the halfway house. I promise I won’t try to leave again. They can do whatever they want. I’ll sign up for more cleaning duties. Please, Dad, just Hey, there’s only so much I can do. I can’t help you here, because my hands are tied. You broke into the DA’s house. I know, but you can talk to Nicole.

She’ll listen to you. She is not going to turn on her husband right now. I can’t make her do that, all right? It’s going to look bad on everybody. Son, I’m sorry. Stop. No, no, no, please. Just wait one second. Dad, please. Tate, Tate, I will talk to Justin. I’ll get you out of this safe. I’m sorry. We’ll try to I’m sorry.

I know you are. It’s okay. I really screwed up this time.

It’s okay.

Thank you. Thank you for everything that you did for my son. Tripp’s gonna be okay. And so are you. Thank God. I know, um, I know how you were there for me. A lot. When I was unconscious, Rafe told me. I just want to say I’m sure it helped in my recovery. Just sensing that you were around me. Yeah. I’m not sure how much it helped but, I was definitely around.

How you feeling? Um, Glad I’m not staying here tonight. Looking forward to just sleeping in my own bed. Yeah. How about my bed? Harris, you’re still recovering from a gunshot wound and then you run around like some superhero. Try and help save my son. I know you, and I know you’re not recovered fully yet.

I know you need someone to help take care of you. And I’d like to be that someone. Will you let me? Please.

Oh, God, Tripp. Tripp, baby, I can’t lose you. I can’t lose you.

Oh, hey there, Mitali. What did I tell you?

Can you believe it? Beckett Goldman, the one person you would never expect to be on the dark side. When I heard your APB, to say that I was shocked would be an understatement. Harris. Harris, hey. What are you doing here, man? Yeah. And in your condition, why would they released me? They didn’t. I, uh, checked myself out against medical advice.

Harris, you don’t need to do this, okay? Listen to me. We’ve got this handled. Okay? We don’t need you. Yes, you do need me. You can always use an extra pair of eyes and knowing everything that I know now, there’s no way I’m just gonna lie in that hospital bed and do nothing.

Hello, Abraham. You, you know me? Of course I do. It’s my, it’s my brain telling tricks on you. Am I hallucinating?

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

it’s you.

Let’s see.

I’ve seen. Pictures of you.

I’m Paulina. But, you probably know that.

Lexi. Is it I?

Paulina, what’s going on? What’s going on? Don’t you Don’t you see her? It’s Lexi. Your first wife. But Lexi, you You died. You died years Years ago. You know what? Maybe we can use you. All right, where do we start? Becca Goldman, an operative for that scum Clyde Weston. Ugh, I still can’t wrap my head around that.

Okay, what have you uncovered so far? Well, we’re searching her apartment as we speak. We’ve got an APB out on her and our car. Yeah, a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Expired plates. Highway Patrol’s been looped in. We’re also searching her financial records and phone records. Although it would be amateur hour for her to have not used a burner phone.

And clearly, she’s not an amateur considering the way that she played us. Yeah, she’s, uh, she’s a cop. She knows exactly what we’re doing. How we win this is by skating to where the puck’s gonna be, not where it is right now.

John Stega, wait, how did you get back here? You know, it took us all of three minutes to knock your goons out and leave them on the side of the road. Damn it, Ava. Look, I didn’t have a choice. You had a choice. Okay, he lied to me, that bastard, he lied. And now he’s long gone, isn’t he?

Steve. Our son. Our son. What about our son, Ava? What did Clyde tell you? He said that Tripp was as good as dead. Well, I’ll tell you something. I don’t trust anything that psychopath says. I won’t accept that. I won’t believe it until every stone is turned over. What have I done? This is, this is all my fault.

Shut up!

We don’t have time for that, Ava. We’ve got to find Trip before it’s too late. I’m going to hold my, hold my house somewhere.

Where? The countryside.

Where I have, uh, I have two kids. A boy and a girl. Two kids? Yes. And it’ll be, it’ll be perfect. Because, because you’re, you’re perfect. I want, I love you so much. I love you. My sweet husband. And I love you too. What the hell is that? Oh my god! Dean!

Lexi, Lexi,

that was, that was my first wife’s name, I, I read that in my dossier,

you died, right? She died, she died, right? Years ago, Brain cancer. You had us fun together.

Theo! What? Wait, wait, wait a minute. Are you going to take her? Are you here to take her to the other side? Abraham. Darling.

It’s my time. No, no, no, no, no, no. It is not your time. I will not let you take her. I won’t let you, do you hear me? I won’t let you take her.

I can’t believe I, I gave that lowlife a shoulder to lean on. No, I comforted her when she shot that drug dealer. And we took her word for it. But he drew on her first. She executed the guy to keep him from talking. She was cleaning up for Clyde. All that time, right under our nose. Wait, her sore arm.

Remember? The night of the attempted murder of Lucas at the pub? She said she hurt herself at the gym or something. But, but Kate, Kate shot at the assailant. Oh my god, it’s all adding up now. How did we not see this? Because she’s good. Did either one of you, uh, question Officer Phillips? Yeah. Yeah, we did.

And? And while he’s not thrilled to be on death’s duty, he understands that we also need to investigate him. He was curious about being betrayed and seemed shocked about what she did. Only god knows what else we’re gonna uncover. Dane,

oh my god. What are you doing here? You did it. You’re alive. I can’t believe I’m looking at you. And that, that you’re okay, Holly. I’ve, I’ve missed you so much. Dane, you shouldn’t be here. No, no, no. It’s okay. Don’t worry. No one knows. No one saw me. So Tell me, did you go to the other side? What happened? I mean, I was in a coma for a while, but I woke up, as you can see.

Oh my god. After I found you at the party, after you OD’d, Holly, I thought you were gonna die. And I didn’t know what I was gonna do. I was, there was no way I could have dealt with that. I was thinking maybe I’d buy a one way ticket somewhere far away, but You don’t have to go anywhere.

So, I’m really okay? I, um, I feel like Uh,

um Well Well? You little Romeo. I can’t believe you just scaled a trellis to climb into my room. You know the last time a boy did that was in sixth grade? And he spent the rest of the school year with a cast on his right arm. Hmm. Well, trust me, I’ve done crazier. I believe that. Uh, so, were you gonna tell me what you’re doing here?

Well, uh, you wouldn’t answer any of my calls, my DMs, and I, I don’t have a carrier pigeon, so I kind of felt like I was running out of options. Yeah, I, I know, I just, I didn’t really know what to say to you. But I guess I know what I want to say now. And I’m sorry, Tate. I’m really, really sorry.

Listen, you gotta call Rafe. You gotta get this video into the hands of the police right now. I can’t hurt. All right, look. No talk about the Western escape. Okay, look. I don’t care. I don’t care what they do to me. I only care about my son and what happens to him and that he’s okay. Rafe. John Black. Hey, John.

What’s up? What? I’m sitting here with Steve and Ava. And Ava received a very disturbing video. Oh yeah? Of what? Of Tripp and Wendy being held hostage. Situation looks dire. So far we’re betting zero. Want to take a look at it? When did you receive it? It’s time sensitive, man. You want to look at it or not?

Yeah, okay. Send it over. On its way. Okay. Maybe they can pick up on something we missed. Well, let’s hope so. But in the meantime, how about we take another look? Fire it up.

Hi mom. First you need to know that Wendy and I are okay. You’re getting this message as a warning to keep your mouth shut and not talk to any law enforcement about anything you’re currently involved in. And you will not tell anyone about this video. You’re being monitored. So, be very careful what you say or do.

And be sure to do exactly as you’re told. Wait a minute. When you’re contacted. I’m missing something. I think I do. If you follow these instructions, Wendy and I can come home. No.

Where is my shepherd? I shall not want. He, makes me lie down and, Creeping pastures.

Leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul.

Wendy.

Abe, do you remember when I last saw you? When you, you last saw me. Yes, it was in heaven. Lexi, oh my

god.

It’s been ten years since I lost you.

It’s not a days gone by that I, that I don’t think of you, that miss you. You’re still in my heart. And in Theos, my precious son, he’s so kind, gentle, and when he smiles, There you are. My sweet Lexi. You raised him well, Abe. Oh no, no. I won’t take credit. Not all of it. You, you, you were there, as I said, and, and, and you are in his heart and in his smile.

You’re there, always. Always. Always. Always. See? I remember.

I remember now. I remember it all. I remember when we met. We met at the Salem PD and we We were partners. I Paulina? Paulina! Do you know what that means? Do you know what that means? Do you know what this means, my love? Hey,

hey. Don’t be sorry. It’s okay, really. Come on, sit. Hey. No. Look, Holly, it’s fine. It’s fine. It’s not fine. It’s not. I’m embarrassed. Actually, no, more than embarrassed, I’m ashamed. I should have known better. I mean, you even told me not to take those pills, but I did it anyways. Honestly, I thought they were just ADHD meds.

Just good old fashioned stims. Harmless. I should have listened to you, Tate. Wait. That’s why you’re sorry? Well, yeah. Is there something else I should be sorry about? Polly, do you have any idea what happened after you OD’d? I got in I got in terrible trouble. EJ blamed me for giving you those drugs. What?

Yeah, he said I forced you to take them. They were laced with opiates, which is Why you overdosed. He had me arrested, Holly. Lexi,

we had quite the life together, didn’t we?

We had our, we had our ups and downs, but we were so very much in love. We had our son, Leo. Oh my god, you were, you were chief of staff right here, right here at this hospital.

Seems I only fall in love with competent, feisty women. Yes, that seems to be true. But now, you need to focus on just one woman, Ape. The woman you’ve committed the rest of your life to. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. Yes, this woman. This woman. She is my life now. She’s everything. She’s my everything. I remember. I remember.

Our wedding

looks so beautiful

and we, we jumped the prune because it was June 19th. June 19th. That’s the day that we became, we became husband and wife.

We have

so much life to live. Right, my darling? Paulina? Paulina? Paulina, are you with me? Paulina? Paulina?

No!

No! I think the

proof’s all here. Clyde is behind this. He’s the mastermind. He knew kidnapping Tripp would get Ava to do anything he demanded for her to save her son. But his plan to take me out failed miserably. And Goldman being the mole, I think we have a little bit of a criminal conspiracy on our hands. Goldman.

Goldman. Goldman. I had Goldman fill out the missing persons report. Wendy and Tripp. Everything looked fine until Damn. Check the contact for intel. Rebecca Goldman. What’s up? Pretty damn cunning. If anyone reached out, it would go straight to her.

Pull her GPS info. Pull her GPS info. When Wendy and Tripp went missing.

Hey, you alright? Yeah. Hey, are you okay? Are you sure you’re okay to do this? Alright. Yeah, I’m sure. Get on the phone then. Contact the prison. See if there’s any communication between Goldman and Clyde. I’m on it. Alright. They’re pulling up the squad’s GPS. Okay, good. That’s how police leads or something.

Look, I was focusing on Tripp before. But look at Wendy here. She’s, she’s been making these gestures behind him. Look, she, she brushes her hand across her cheek from the top to bottom and then making these circular motions two or three times. Yup. There it is, I see it, I see it. Okay. What are you doing?

Checking the ASL site. ASL? American Sign Language. Kayla and I studied it when she lost her hearing for a while. What, you think, you think that Wendy is, is using sign language? Yes, I do. That’s it. I got it. That’s, that’s ASL for beer. Beer? Why would Wendy be making the sign for beer? Hey, hey, hey. Look at this.

In the background, see the rivets on that metal there? Yeah. See that curvature? Looks like some sort of a tank. A brew tank! Hey man, isn’t there a brewery out past the airport? That has been abandoned for years. We were at the airport. We were just there. Let’s move. Okay.

Wait, EJ, he had you arrested? Yeah, yeah, he did. First, they sent me to jail, and then they sent me to this awful place for GV criminals, and then finally they moved me to this stupid rehab center called Serenity Salem. Oh my god, Tate, I’m so sorry. Don’t I had no idea. Don’t be sorry. Just, help me, Holly. You have to tell them the truth.

Tell them what, exactly? That the pills were yours. That your ODing was because of the pills that you had on you that night, New Year’s Eve. Holly, you have to tell them that I had nothing to do with it.

I can’t.

I’m getting nowhere with Statesville right now. They said there’s some type of toxic chemical spill tonight, so their hands are full. Wait, I think I got something here. What is it? Okay, starting from the date that Wendy and Tripp disappeared until today, there’s one address here that’s listed over a dozen times.

And it’s too far out of town to be a stop on Goldman’s patrol. Run it. Can we uh, let’s hope we hit pay dirt here. It’s the brewery, by the airport. Bingo. Okay, I’m going with you. Alright, good. You find out exactly what’s going on at Statesville. You should check the printout and see if Goldman made any more stops.

Any at all. She stopped for a cold hot dog. I want to know about it. Okay, and you will. Let’s go. Tripp! Tripp! Tripp! Wendy! Wendy! I told her! They’re here! Are they alive? Just stay back for now. Just stay here.

Lexi.

I remember after, after I got shot, you appeared to me from heaven. And you said, you said it wasn’t my time. You said that I was needed. Here in this life, we can’t be together. I don’t want to leave you. I’ll be here. My darling waiting, but it’s not your time yet. I think you know that.

Yes, I know it. I know it now. My children. The children need me. And my grandchildren, my friends, Paulina.

I know I have to go back. And so you will, my love. God bless you, Maxine.

Needed it. By my kids. My friends. And Paulina. And you still are.

I need her, Lexi. I, we, we need her. She, she, she, she’s, she’s scattered on by so many people.

She She can’t leave. She can’t leave. I’m not here to take anyone, Abe. I’m here to help you. To help Paulina. Close your eyes. Now look deep into your heart. And feel the love inside of it. Can you feel it, Abe? Good. Now take that feeling of love and transfer it to her. Transfer it? Transfer it? How? How? Believe, Abe.

You have to believe what’s in your heart. Believe. Believe.

I’ll eat it. I’ll eat it.

What do you mean, you can’t? You can’t what, tell the truth? This is my life we’re talking about here, Holly, and right now I have no life. I am stuck in some awful halfway house for no reason, even though I didn’t do anything wrong. I want my life back, Holly! Okay, okay. I’ll tell them the drugs weren’t yours.

I just can’t tell them they were mine. What? No, but Holly, they’re still gonna think that they were mine. Don’t you get it? Tate, Tate, please. Please, we can make up another story. Why do we have to make up another story? Why can’t you just tell the truth? Because, Look, I overheard my mom talking to EJ when she thought I was sleeping, and she was going on about how disappointed she’d be if it turned out those drugs were mine.

And, I mean, you know, when she lost her baby, she totally fell apart. It was horrible what that did to her. And then, God, with me almost dying? I mean, if she thought I was responsible for what happened to me, I I can’t do that to her, Tate. I just can’t. Oh my god.

So, you are going to sacrifice me. You are going to totally ruin my future so that you can what, Holly? Keep up appearances? Pretend you’re just this little golden child? It’s not like that. Then what is it like, Holly? Please. Please. Holly, please, you have to help me. Come on, Ricky,

come on. Back to me, kid. Come on, kid. Come on, come on. Are they breathing? Come on. Ava, stay back, please. Are they breathing? Tell me! Call 9 1 1. I already did. Call again! Okay. Come on. Come on. Come on. Hey. Hey. Yes, yes, yes. Hi. Hi, hi, hi. Yes, I just called. Yes, a few minutes ago about two people that we found out at the brewery.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

There you are. Hey, how are you holding up?

Mom, I’m losing it, I swear. I’m barely holding on. I know. Your dad said that he spoke to Nicole. Yeah, he told me too. I was so pumped when I heard that Holly was out of her coma, but she doesn’t even remember anything from that night. Nothing. I know it’s a blow. But we are not giving up. We are going to clear your name.

God, I was so sure she was going to tell the truth, too. That I didn’t give her those drugs, that I tried to tell her not to take them. I know. But your family believes you. Well, I hope that does me now. Still stuck in here with no way out. What are we gonna do, Mom?

Hey! Welcome back. Thanks. Hey. It’s, uh, it’s good to be back. Yeah. How’s Molly? Oh, here, come on in. Yeah. Um, well, she’s very excited for your visit. Yeah. Um, she is a little upset, though. That she can’t remember anything about New Year’s Eve. So, but she is on the mend and she’s getting stronger every hour. Wow, that’s fantastic.

And how was it for you? I mean, being in Italy, were you able to get out at all? Oh, um, you know, very little. I was back and forth to the hospital and my hotel room, so. Yeah. How’s the photography business? It’s good. Great. I’m picking up, but you know what? My main focus, it’s kind of, it’s been on parenthood.

Pretty great, isn’t it? Oh yeah, it’s pretty great. I’m really happy to see you. Likewise. Never fear, Nanny McStark is here. God, I’m gonna regret this, aren’t I? Would you prefer I leave? No, no, I’m desperate for a babysitter and my last resort. I’m touched. I went through every contact in my phone. Eric’s family, the neighbors, literally no one else was available.

Well, then how lucky for you that I was footloose and fancy free. And I came prepared. See, I’ve been reading up on child rearing, and they say that bright colors stimulate cognitive development. And did you know that babies prefer high pitched voices, elongated vowels, and over enunciation? Isn’t that right, baby?

Great. Well, looks like you got it covered. Uh, if he gets hungry, there’s formula in the fridge. I am going to meet a new client. She’ll be back in a couple of hours, hopefully before Eric gets home. If you have any concerns Don’t worry, Mommy. Okay, fine. But listen, don’t forget that like a fine wine or a park avenue escort, I don’t come cheap.

You’ve been draining me dry for weeks. Cheap is never a word I’d use to describe you. That is so sweet. Mommy is a hot mess.

So where’s Clyde’s cell again? Clyde’s cell is Right here. In the watchtowers. Or right here. And right here. Okay.

Angela, tell me you’ll make this happen. Tripp doesn’t have much time.

So I can count on you? Bene, bene grazie.

Yeah, I owe you big. Ava,

sorry the situation has put you in this position. Yeah, well, so much for vowing that I’ll never work with my family again. So they’re in? Yeah, it’s taken care of. Angelo and his team will do their part. What it cost you?

Extends through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Holly, honey, are you decent? Yeah, come in. Hey. Hello, sweetheart. Eric. Hey. Oh, I’m so glad you’re here. Me too. Just so happy to see you awake. I’m Yeah, so I’m pretty scared for a while. Yeah, I can’t believe I was out for two months. Yeah. It’s so freaky missing time like that. I bet. Yeah, I bet your mom says you’re on the mend.

You’re getting stronger all the time. Yes, she is. Sarah was here yesterday. She ran a few tests. So, our girl is on track and on her way back to normal. That’s great. Our little miracle.

What’s your plan? Theresa. Hi. And you must be Tate. I’m Sloane Peterson. Sloane has agreed to take over your case. What happened to Justin? Well, uh, as much as I’m grateful to Justin, he is knee deep right now in defending Xander Cook in attempted murder charges. So, he’ll help later, if he can. In the meantime, I’ve decided to go outside the Kiriakis family, and I want to bring you home, back to your family, where you belong, as soon as possible.

And, as your new lawyer, I’ll start by telling you, we plan to take a somewhat Novel. approach.

My family’s doing this as a one time favor. Okay, if it comes back to bite me, I’ll deal with it when the time comes. I’ve spent decades fielding demands from my family. I’m an expert at it. So let’s not get distracted. Ava called in her family because we need their help. They have the connections we need inside that prison.

That’s right. Whatever it takes, Tripp and Wendy have to be saved. Okay. Right. Okay. So, let’s just drop the topic of Angelo and his team. They’re handled. And they’re only one part of the plan. It’s up to us to take care of the rest.

Oh, here we go. Okay, um Let’s see.

Checklist for a crying baby. Step one is the child hungry. Why don’t we grab that bottle of formula mommy prepared for you, okay? Right back. Okay. Hmm. Now go, huh? All right. Okay. Step two, is the baby feverish? Uh oh. Uh oh.

98. 6, that’s perfect. Okay. Step three, does the baby have We knew this moment would come, didn’t we, soldier? Don’t you worry, I got this. And then

the cops said, I’ll take those. So I looked at my dad, he nodded for me to do it, and then I handed the drugs to her. That’s, um, that’s pretty much it. This is all very helpful, Tate. Can you remember anything else? Even some small detail you might have left out? Um, no. No, that’s everything.

Do you think you can help us, Miss Peterson? I do. But I think we should go over the challenges first. Uh, okay. Thing is, even though EJ’s case is mostly circumstantial, it doesn’t help that Tate delayed calling for help when he first found Holly unconscious, or that he initially lied to a police officer who later saw him with drugs in his hands.

But that was a mistake that he made in the heat of the moment. He was really scared and confused. He was just trying to help a girl that he has a big crush on. Shh. I understand that. The question is will the jury believe that if we go to trial?

So I have to check with the hospital about when your next exam is and schedule your physical therapy. So you two keep talking and I will be back. Okay. Do you know that I came and saw you every day at the hospital? You did? I did. I came by to pray for you. Until your mom decided to take you to, you know, Italy.

Did I look weird? No, you looked like you were sleeping. Oh. Um, uh, was there anyone else there? Of course, pretty much everyone at some point. Oh, I’ve, I’ve got a lot to catch up on. Yeah. Your mom said that you’re having trouble remembering what happened the night you overdosed. Yeah, it’s, it’s all just blank.

I don’t even remember passing out. Well, do you think that somebody slipped some drugs into your cup? Uh, um, I don’t, I don’t know. I mean, I guess that makes sense. Dancing. I didn’t watch my drink the whole time. Someone, some loser totally could have slipped something in there. I don’t know. You know, Holly, every time, um You got nervous when you were a kid.

You used to play with your hair. Oh, I didn’t spill the juice. I didn’t color on the walls. You used to be afraid to ever tell me the truth when you were nervous or thought you might get in trouble. That was a long time ago. Owie. What aren’t you telling me?

I’ve checked out the entire duct system here. It’s a go. You know, there’s also a service gate behind yard two. It’s rarely used, but it gives us less ground to cover if we can get Weston into position. Nice. Alright, where’s that list of supplies again? Here, here it is. Okay, we got uh, wire cutters, grinder, hacksaw, black tape, disguises, binoculars, cable ties.

Night vision goggles? Yeah, it’s right on here. Everything’s in order. Alright, Steven, I will handle the transportation within your field. And, uh, Angelo will have a plane prepared for immediate flight at the designated airstrip. Anything else? I think we’re ready to go. Right? Tonight we break into prison.

Okay, okay. Ah, see? That wasn’t so bad, was it? Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. That has always been my motto. Well, that and, if at first you don’t succeed, then skydiving is not for you. Okay, well, now that we’re changed and settled and looking very adorable, I might add, how about, oh, how about I rock you to sleep?

You ready for a little shut eye, huh? Okay. Uh, well I don’t see a rocking chair, so how about I walk you to sleep? And I could tell you a story. Would you like that? Okay, I take that little wrinkled nose as a yes. Um, so it was a dark and stormy night. No, you’re right, that’s too scary. Why don’t we go a different route?

Once upon a time, a very handsome little prince was born along the side of the road. And he was delivered by his very godfather, none other than yours truly. And for the briefest of moments, his mother got to hold him very lovingly in her arms. And then, a tall, handsome German god swooped in and took him away, bound for the hospital.

Or so we thought. Instead, they were waylaid by an evil, nasty, bottle blonde, wicked witch. Okay, that’s not fair. We don’t know for sure that she’s a bottle blonde.

How does the story end, you ask?

I don’t know.

But so far it’s not looking good.

But the little prince,

He is always going to be protected from poison apples. Because that’s my job. Okay. What? What

is that? Are you smiling at me?

Well, that warms my heart.

Yeah, that really warms my heart.

Eric, New Year’s Eve, that night,

It’s all just a blur. I really wish I could remember what happened.

Um, hey, how’s Jude doing? I’m sure he’s a lot bigger since Christmas. Yeah, yeah he is. He’s actually holding his head up. And he’s sleeping through the night while we waste most of the time. Got any new pictures? Of course I do. I just shot these the other day when he was having a little tummy time. Oh my gosh, he’s so cute.

Yeah. Look at those little cheeks. Yeah. Oh, he’s adorable. Oh, oh, oh, oh my goodness, he’s so precious. Definitely a keeper. Yes, he is. Wait till you see him at the christening. When is it? Will I be well enough? Well, we held off until you were both back in Salem and you were awake. Oh my gosh. Your mom said she wanted you both to be there.

Well, that was thoughtful. Well, Holly, I mean, if your doctors say it’s fine, then yes, of course you can come if you’re feeling up for it. Oh, I’ll be more than up for it. Oh. I can’t wait. Well, like I said, I haven’t made an official date yet, but it’s going to be a small family gathering at St. Luke’s, and then we’re going to have the reception at Brady’s Pub.

Oh. Yeah. You know, I have an idea. What if we have the reception here? I would love to host it. Oh, thanks for the offer, but it’s too much to ask. Well, you, you didn’t ask. And, um, hello? Are you kidding? I would love to do it for you. Especially since you saved the date for us. Really, the, the pub is fine. To be honest, I just don’t think someone would be on board.

Are you sure? I mean, look, you’re both parenting and working full time. It would be a huge load off of her and you if someone else planned it, right? And besides, closing the pub would take away business for Roman, so She’s right. I am. It’d be really cool if you had it here, Eric. It would. And look, Holly’s still recovering, so it’d be better if it were here.

And then she’s not running from the church to the pub and the, you know, the whole thing. Of course, it is totally up to you, but I would really love to do this for you. And, you know, maybe it’ll help make things right between Sloane and me.

Okay. It’s a great offer. Thank you. I’ll let Sloane know. Wait, do you think we’re gonna have to go to trial? No, no, that can’t be. This is not gonna go to trial, right Sloane? Well, that’s my hope. Um, but as we all know, EJ is DA. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve taken him on many times before, and beaten him, and negotiated some kick ass plea deals.

But, this case is personal to him. But my dad said that Holly’s awake now, we just need to get her to tell the truth. But, you said that she doesn’t remember the truth. The bottom line is, it’s going to be very hard to prove your innocence unless, She admits the drugs were hers. If we go to trial, I’ll depose her, of course, and try to get the truth out of her.

Yes, that’s good. Let’s go after her. Go after her? Mom, she’s my friend. Really? Would a friend let you go down for a crime that you didn’t commit? I’m gonna pursue every angle I can, but I do think we should consider another option. What might that be? Going to trial is a long, arduous process with no guarantee of the outcome.

I could arrange a plea deal and you would get a light sentence tape or possibly even time served. Before you know it, you’d be free to go home. No, that’s BS. I don’t want a plea deal or a light sentence. I didn’t do anything wrong. I tried to stop Holly from taking those pills. I am totally innocent. Don’t you get that?

All right. We are out of here. I’ll pick up any other supplies we might need. And I’ll get the unmarked vehicle to transport Weston to the airport. Okay, great. And I’ll meet you both at the airfield. Right. Oh, John, remember, we have to stop by the office and pick up that special equipment. Oh, yeah, well, we might just need our old pal Rico’s basement again.

Oh, yeah. Wait, wait, a minute. Special equipment, basement. What are you two talking about? It’s just everything we need to interrogate Weston about Tripp and Wendy’s location. So we’re gonna make it look like we’re busting, busting out and getting into the airfield? Yeah, but in reality, that’s not gonna happen.

We’re not gonna let him go. Oh, like hell we’re not.

H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y M Z. Now I know my ABC’s. Uh! Next time won’t you rap with me? Check it! That’s impressive. Did you daddy’s home? Uh, you alone? Where’s my wife? She’s out with a client. So you’re babysitting? Word. Son didn’t tell me she called you. I would have known. I would have been here with him.

Well, if it’ll ease your mind, he has been fed, burped, changed, entertained, washed, rinsed, repeat. And check this. Peek a boo! Are you laughing at him? Or his outfit. Hey, now. No, no, I’m sorry. You just, you, you two seem to belong. Yeah. We’ve got a connection. I felt it ever since he came into my life. Quite a special little boy you’ve got.

Couldn’t agree more.

Okay, so I’m thinking of a cold buffet bar that way people can snack since they’ll be popping in and out. Yes, oh, and we should do those, um, those individual cakes too, you know, like the bite sized ones. Yes, with a little blue icing. Mom, that whole pink blue thing is so last century. Okay. And, hey, I will be in charge of music playlists.

Because if you do it, we’ll end up with a three hour Billy Joel medley or something. I had one Billy Joel CD growing up. You will not let me live that down. Besides, Piano Man was the most amazing song ever. All his songs were, actually. If you say so. I do say so. Oh gosh, it’s going to be so great to have a celebration here.

Since there’s been so much sadness lately. Yeah, there has. So Aren’t those pictures of Jude just adorable? Mom, try not to go there, okay?

I know, honey. It’s just that sometimes those feelings just come flooding back, thinking about your little brother and, and what happened to you. I’m here. I’m back now. Thank God. Because I don’t know what I would have done if I lost you, my precious girl. I don’t know what I would have done.

Okay, so I’m going to go make a call to get the ball rolling. Mom, I don’t get it. Why do I have to plead guilty when I’m innocent? Tate, it’s to get you out of this mess. It’s a tactic, okay, to get you home sooner. We don’t know if EJ’s gonna drag this out for the long haul. It’s, it’s a guarantee of a light sentence.

But Holly could come around. She could tell the truth when she remembers.

Honey, we don’t know if, if that’s gonna happen. And we can’t wait around for that possibility. So we just need to do whatever is best to make sure we can get you out of here. Does Holly even know where I am? Does she know that I was arrested and then beat up in jail and then shoved into a halfway house?

I don’t know. I don’t know, but I will find out for you. Yes? Can I talk to you for a second? Sure.

I’ll be meeting with the judge soon to file a formal complaint against EJ. Hopefully I can get him removed from the case due to bias and non objectivity. That would be great. It’s a long shot, but there’s a chance the judge will see it our way. EJ seems to have some really strong pull with the judges.

I’m aware. We’ll know soon enough how the complaint pans out, but in the meantime, I need Tate to stay mentally sharp and focused in case this goes to trial. You two think you’re gonna double cross Clyde Weston? Do you have any idea how insane that is? Steve, how could you even think of risking our son’s safety like this?

I’m doing it for his safety. Look, we’re taking all this risk to break that maniac out of prison. So what if he takes off and he doesn’t give us Tripp back? That is a risk I’m not willing to take. So we’re going to hold Clyde’s feet to the fire for as long as it takes until he coughs up Tripp and Wendy’s location.

That’s the only way this is going to work. You are out of your mind. Do you realize that? Look, Clyde may play the country bumpkin, but he is sharp as a tack and he knows what he is doing. Look at his track record since he has been in prison. A police detective has already been gunned down. He set the fire at the Horton House.

And he is scattering drugs all over this town with the force of a Texas tornado. We know what we’re dealing with, Ava. Oh, do you? Do you really? Yes, yes. Okay, well then you know that he’s already broken in here and he is watching us. You know, he could be listening to us right now. I swept the place for bugs when I first came in and it was clean.

And with our training, no one, you know. Is ever going to follow us to the rendezvous point. Okay, well that is not enough. Don’t you get it? Clyde Weston will find a way to royally screw us if we don’t do exactly what he wants. If we defy him in any way, he is going to seek revenge and it’s going to be tragic.

So I’m begging you, please, please, just let him go. Steve, it is the price we are gonna have to pay to save our son. Ava,

I know that Clyde’s been doing a number on you lately, and you’ve been on pins and needles for months. You’re not thinking clearly. Oh, screw you, Steve. I’m thinking just fine. Okay, all I mean is that you’ve been under pressure, okay? But we can’t let Clyde Weston go. I know. Especially not after everything he’s done to half the people in this town.

Steve’s right, Ava. Can’t let a career criminal like Weston go free. We had to alter the plan. Oh yeah, and with no surprise, you two are in cahoots behind my back. Okay, so now you know everything, all right? So we’re gonna do the plan exactly as it was laid out. But when we get to the airfield, we’re gonna make it clear to Weston that either he gives up Tripp and Wendy’s location, or the night is gonna end very badly for him.

Trust us. Weston is never going to know what even hit him. Oh, honey, I, I should be talking to my therapist about this. Not my beautiful daughter who’s recently been through enough as it is. Oh, it’s okay, mom. I know how hard it was for you to lose the baby. And then what happened to me? I mean, you’ve been through a lot too.

It definitely was a lot. Not just watching you lie there so still day after day. I just, I didn’t know if you were going to come back to us or if you would ever talk again or, or, or be yourself. God, and then I thought, what if you woke up and you didn’t remember anything? Like, with Eve. And Paulina, I mean, what if you, you didn’t remember all of our good times and, and the tea parties we had when you were a little girl and, and the forts we made with the couch cushions and looking for frogs on our nature walks.

I remember all of those things.

And then I’m very grateful for honey.

And I’m also grateful for all the support that I had because if it weren’t for EJ and, and Eric, I don’t know what I would have done.

I really did lean on that baby. Mom, you are so strong all on your own. Don’t forget that. You’re a survivor. Oh, me? Yes, so are you. I mean, look at you, my little fighter. Um, yeah. Well, I’d really like to not think about New Year’s Eve anymore and the party, what happened, or at least, you know, not talk about it as much.

Okay, Annie, I understand. So we will just, we will leave the past where it belongs, okay? And we’ll just focus on this baby bash, yeah?

This has been so hard on Tate. Emotionally. It’s been rough on the whole family, obviously. As for me, I um, I fell off the wagon. It was just a one time slip. And it was demoralizing. To say the least. Anyway, now I’m completely committed to my sobriety. And all I care about is just being there for my son. And I do not want this nightmare to permanently damage his psyche or mess up his future.

I get it. I, brother Colin is locked up in prison right now. Well, because of his thirst for revenge and unlike Tate, he was guilty, but. I still wish I could have saved him from the mistakes he made. Anyway, I can’t guarantee what the outcome will be for your son, but I promise I will do everything I can to help.

Thank you so much. I get the sense he’s a good kid. He is. Let’s do everything we can to take him home.

Okay. I’ll see you tomorrow. All right? I’m going to let you know what Sloan finds out from the judge. Okay. Hey. Hey, don’t be upset about Holly. Okay? You need to stay positive. You know how many people you have backing you in your corner? Don’t give up. Don’t worry. I will never give up. That’s my boy. Love you.

Love you.

You know, I was about 14 months when I started walking. My twin sister Sammy, she was a little bit more ahead of me. And, uh, she started running around the house and nobody could keep up with her. I’m pretty sure I skipped walking and went straight to running. Away from my mother in terror. You’re home! Hey!

Uh, Eric, I couldn’t find anyone to babysit. I, I just And you found Leo. Who’s been doing a wonderful job. You even got him to smile and laugh. That’s great! I think he remembers me. Well, since we’re both home, uh, Leo, you can head out. Um, I’ll just pay you. Oh, no, no, no. He can stick around if he wants. I mean, we don’t have any plans.

I’m sure he has plans. Nope. Free as a bird. Super. I’m gonna get a glass of wine. Oh, yes, please. Hey, honey, by the way, um, Nicole, well, she offered to host a little after party at the DiMera mansion. Yeah, it’s kind of her way of extending an old friendship. O M G, Nicole is just the sweetest. And the DiMera mansion, what a perfect venue.

Fine. We’ll do it your way. I just want my son back. And once he is home and he is safe. I don’t give a damn what happens to Clyde. We have everything we need to deal with him, Ava. I assure you. But first, we have got a prison to break into. I’m ready. Let’s move it. Okay. We’ll be in touch within the hour.

Alright, password should be my birthday. I want to think about changing that, mom. I’m in. What? Crap, I don’t know Holly’s number. I don’t know anyone’s number. Oh, she’s got a contact. Damn, she’s got a contact list. Um, So familiar. Okay, so we will do finger sandwiches, um, and pasta salad. Rolls. Rolls, yes, great idea.

And petite fours. Must haves. Oh, and hey, maybe we can do, like, little candle party favors with Jude’s name on them. Yes, that’s a great idea. Okay, I’ll let you look into that. I think Sloan and Eric are gonna love this. I can’t wait. Uh, so listen, I’m gonna go out and hunt down those petite fours, and then we’ll talk to Cook when I get back.

Do you need anything while I’m out? Okay, well, text me if you think of anything, okay?

Theresa Donovan? Why the heck is Tate’s mother sliding in my DMs? Sorry lady, no time for you. I’ve got a party to plan.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

We’re back. Shh. Shh. Sorry. How is she?

She’s not good.

Okay. Okay. So my mom and my dad and Kayla, they have to be looking for us, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. Okay. But how long will they know that we’re here?

How long until we run out of oxygen? Actually, BGU isn’t burning out of oxygen, per se. In an airless, enclosed space like this, the danger is more, uh More what? Tell me. It’s the carbon dioxide. A 1 percent concentration is mildly toxic, and once it reaches 10%, it’s I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said anything.

No, I want to know. If there’s a chance of us dying. I want to know.

There she comes. All right, it’s time to roll. Jig out, this has to work.

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

How’s her breathing? It’s labored.

Doctors were here earlier. There’s no change. And there’s no update on a possible heart transplant.

Why don’t you go and get some rest? You’re next. We can stay here with mama. Yeah, we won’t leave her side, we promise. Maybe, maybe later. Hey, you look exhausted. You need sleep. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. I want to be here when she wakes up. Okay, if you’re sure. I’m sure, sure.

Doctors.

Doctors say she’s running out of time.

But you know, there are thousands of other people who are waiting for a heart transplant too. Yeah, yeah, that’s right, but, but even still, we can’t give up hope, right? Right. We’re not giving up.

Okay, we should, we should, we should minimize our physical activity, okay? Try to make the, try to make the oxygen last as long as possible. Okay. Okay. I’m moving around. That increases oxygen consumption, right? Yeah, it does. And we should, we should take slow, shallow breaths. Okay, got it.

You’re being so brave. You can take your makeup, remember? Right, right. Okay. Okay, how’s this?

I’m not scared. I know we’ll be okay. And even if we’re not, I’ll deal with it. Because I’m with the man I love. Who has never loved you more than he does right now. Tripp. Yeah?

Do you believe in God? Uh?

Oh,

yeah. Oh. Abraham.

Right there, my love. Oh. Hey, Mama. We’re here. My girl. How you feeling? Oh. Oh. My grandbabies. They will be here tomorrow. Okay, Eli will bring them. They made these. They made these for you, see? They, they drew those for their grandma. For me? Yeah. We love you so much, Mama. I love them. And you. Oh, my, uh, How many?

How many what, Mama? Grandbabies. You. Johnny. You gotta give us some time, Mama. We just got Uh, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t make it. You tell them about me.

Uh, well, my mother was raised Catholic. It runs pretty deep in her family. I’m asking about you.

I’ve had patients, uh, and their families come in to the hospital from all kinds of faiths and backgrounds. And, uh, when I’ve had to give bad news to someone, they’re Well, it seems that the religious ones are usually comforted by their belief in an afterlife. Their belief that God is watching over them.

That everything happens for a reason. But do you believe that, Tripp? That everything happens for a reason? That God is looking out for us right now? I, I, I, I wouldn’t. To believe that, especially now.

You know, I can’t believe we’ve never talked about this, but are you religious at all? Uh, what I was taught growing up was to seek enlightenment through meditation. And it was also turned into me that life is beautiful and mysterious.

But it’s also full of suffering and uncertainty. Like right now. Wendy, I’m so sorry. If it weren’t for me, you’d be in China right now with your family. Stop. Okay, enough with the guilt, Tripp. I’m here because we fell in love. Because I love you, Tripp Johnson. And if I had to choose between Living a hundred years, not knowing you.

And falling in love with you. Being with you, right here, in this tomb.

I’d pick the tomb. I wouldn’t trade knowing you for anything, either.

You know, maybe we should, uh, Maybe we should write messages to our family, just in case. There’s, there’s nothing right on here. The width is just I’m just gonna have to We’re just gonna have to trust that they know that we were thinking of them. And love them. But my parents I mean, they, they already lost Lee.

So I’m their only child now and I just, I’m, I’m so scared that they, they’re not gonna be able to deal with it.

You’re your mom’s only child too. Yeah, yeah I am.

She’s already been through so much, after losing her other son.

I pray,

and right now I have to admit I’m feeling pretty religious. So right now I think that we should both pray to God that our parents don’t have to, don’t have to suffer any more than they already have. I

gotta tell you boys, this is a brilliant plan. Shut up.

Mama, what can we do? How can we help?

I need to talk to your, your dad. Okay, we’ll go grab coffee.

Take as much time as you need, okay? Yes, darling? What is it? Abraham. I’m here. I’m here, son.

I feel myself slipping away. No, no, no. You can’t talk like that. You can’t talk like that. We only think positively. I won’t let you go. I won’t. I want to thank you for giving me the. For the best years of my life. Sweetheart, I love you. I love you so much. Promise me. Anything. Anything. Take care of my girls.

I promise.

I promise. I will look out for Lani and Chanel and I’ll Eli and Johnny and Jules and Carver. I won’t let you down. Ty So Ty

I just remembered, I’m supposed to go to the dentist tomorrow.

God, I was dreading it, and now what I wouldn’t give to, to keep that appointment.

I thought I I took everything for granted. Me

too. All this time my dad asked me to come over to watch the ball game, and I was, I’m too tired, I have to work, you know, some other time. Then, then Joey’s been texting me, he wanted me to come out and visit him in Seattle, you know, have some bro time, and I, I shook on it. You, you flew out to him when he was in that accident last year.

I know, I know, and I’m so glad I did that. You were such a good brother, Tripp. No. I’m not such a great son either. I mean, I mean, my mom, she’s always, she’s always wanted to hug on me and kiss me, and I, I, I’m, I’m a grown man. I thought, I thought she was babying me, and why, why, you know, why would I push her away like that?

Is that what she’s gonna remember of me? No. No, of course not. You were so good to your mom, Tripp. That’s what she’ll remember. That you were always kind and caring to her. I could have done better. Well, we all could have, right? I mean, like me, my, my parents, they’re old school and they wanted me to get married young and have kids.

I pushed back really hard because nobody’s gonna tell me what to do, how to live my life.

But the truth is, I

do want to get married and have kids.

I mean, on my own time, of course, but

I’ve always wanted that. To be a mom, to be a wife.

Now I’ll never get the chance.

Marry me. Right now.

Good job, little lady. I gotta tell you, I wasn’t sure you could pull this off. Where is my son? All in good time. Hey, we broke you out, now you’re gonna keep up your end. Tell us where Tripp is. Not quite yet. What? Okay, you listen to me, you disgusting piece of Your mom would teach you. We catch more flies with honey, you know.

Yeah. Well, I smack my flies with a swatter. Until they’re dead. Hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? Gentlemen, we’re gonna do this my way.

I can’t believe this is happening. Mama just got through cancer, and, and her surgery was a success. She was supposed to be out of the woods. We were all so happy, and Johnny and I had just gotten married, and, and, and. Mama, she, she was recovering and she was doing fine.

When I was little, my aunt Paulina seemed indestructible. She was a force to be reckoned with. I remember looking at her and thinking she made all the other adults just shake in their boots.

I had no idea she was going through hell. I didn’t know that she was in an abusive marriage. That she was forced to give up her child.

She pushed through the other side. She’s a survivor.

Do you remember when I first found out that she was my biological mother? God, I was, I was so upset at her for keeping it from me. Like, I was awful to her, Chanel. Yeah, but that’s understandable, okay? But I know, I know that she was doing it to protect me. I know that she wanted to keep me away from her. A man that would abuse me and beat me like he did her.

She sacrificed her own happiness for me.

Just like you would for Jules and Carver. But my babies are gonna grow up without their grandmother. They, they won’t remember her. Chanel, they’re too little. Yeah. My kids, they won’t, they won’t know her at all. I’ll never get to hear the sound of her voice or see her face light up whenever she lays eyes on them.

God, Lani, what are we gonna do? Mama is the one person that loves us no matter what.

The most pure and unconditional love is between a mother and her child. No matter how many mistakes we make, our mother still loves us. You know? And how lucky are we?

We are so lucky.

And that luck better not run out. Better not. Come here.

Oh,

Paulina. Paulina, can you hear me? Can you hear me?

For giving me the best years of my life.

I wish I could remember all the I wish I could remember all the All the times we had together.

But instead,

I get to fall with you all over again. I love you. I love you.

I always will.

Wendy Shin. With my whole heart, I take you as my wife. I promise to respect you as a person, as a partner, and an equal. You know, before you came along, I wasn’t sure I believed in finding the one. But, uh, relationships brought me a lot of heartache, a lot of pain. And now I know that things just didn’t work out in the past because fate was just sending me to you.

I just had to be patient. And, for the first time in my life, I finally feel accepted for who I am. You don’t have to be something I’m not to try to impress you with it in some mold. I’m just me. Just, just dorky, nerdy me. Gotta say that, it feels really good. You were my heart. My soul. Yet in this Jenga game we call life, you are the piece that I need.

It’s pretty corny. It’s so, so sweet. It’s true. Without you, my whole world comes crashing down.

And so from this, Moving forward, I vow as your husband, love you, cherish you with all of my being, until I draw my very last breath on this earth.

This ride has come to a complete stop. John, Steve, This is where you get off. You don’t want to do this, Eva. This is a big mistake. The hell it is. It’s the only way I can save my son. Boys, take the guys back to Salem.

Now, for the last time, Clyde, where is my son? You know, that was an ace move right there. Seems to me like you’re the only one that really gets it. But, as much as I appreciate you stopping the dynamic duo there from double crossing me, I gotta tell you, I still don’t really trust you. Okay, well, there’s not much we can do about that now, is there?

I think there is. See, this is how it’s going to play out. Once I’m in the air, I call you on the phone. I tell you where Wendy and Tripp are. Okay, you know, let me think about that. No. That is not going to work for me.

Got it. I better pull myself together Before we go see mom because she can tell from a mile away when I’ve been crying She knows we’re scared we can’t fool her. Yeah, you’re right Sick as she is, she’s still razor sharp. And bossy.

I remember growing up one time she said, I could never die. Who would run my funeral?

This is so messed up. It’s just wrong. Our wonderful mother is in there dying. And it is unfair. All these horrible people, they just get to live. Yeah, well, life’s unfair, Chanel. And like Big Mama always said, you have to play the cards you’ve been dealt. But let’s not lose hope, okay? And you know, if the worst happens, if we lose mama, we’ll have each other and we will cry and we will grieve and our hearts will be broken.

But hey, we will pull ourselves together. And we will be the strong and fierce, powerful women that she has showed us to be by her example. And we will keep her in our hearts forever, okay? And we will make her proud. Oh, we

need more time. We need more time, Paulina.

You need to make new memories.

I know.

I know I’m being selfish. I know. And of you. Of you. To fight. It’s okay. It’s okay.

We’ll try, we’ll try to, try to get along without you. I know that’s what you’d want. You’d want, you’d want us to be strong. You’d want us,

you’d want us to take care of each other.

And we will. We will. Johnson,

with all my heart, I take you as my husband. I promise to be by your side, to learn with you, to encourage you, to respect you and accept you. You’re my best friend, Tripp. You make me laugh. You’re there for me when I cry. You were my rock when And I know I can always turn to you, lean on you, no matter what.

You are honest, and kind, and you’ve devoted your life to helping people. I love that you are so smart, and funny, and nerdy.

You love that I’m smart too.

We are equals. We’re friends. We’re lovers.

And now we’re husband and wife. And I vow to love you and to cherish you with all my being. Until I drop my very last breath on this earth. Well, this wasn’t part of the plan. Why am

I surprised Ava double crossed us? Should have seen it coming. Just like the The double cross of the, um, Chicago case. Ah, yeah. Chicago case. I hear you, partner. Well, I think you’re forgetting, you killed me. You’ll never find your kid. Oh, you’ll live. But you’ll walk real funny for a while. And don’t plan on having any more kids.

Where is my son?! Sweetheart, I think he’s probably halfway to heaven by now. I think his man parts are where they are. Thank you very much. So,

uh, do you think we should go back in now? No, um, let’s give them some more time. Dad knows we’re out here. Why don’t we go to the chapel and say a prayer for Mama? What if Abe comes out here and he’s looking for us? He’ll text us. Don’t worry. Okay. Hey, Lani. Yeah? I love you.

I love you too. How much?

How much time do we have left? Not much time. How will it happen? I’ll just I fell asleep. Oh, sleep. I’m okay. Tripp. When we get

out of here,

will you marry me for real? Huh? Oh yeah. Yeah, I’ll marry you for real. I I do.

There’s our ride. Yep. Looks like it’s about time to Go!

Let’s blow this popsicle stand. You got it, baby. Now, I assume whoever’s flying that plane works for you. So me and my gal here, we’re just gonna drive off into the sunset. But rest assured, I will be thinking warm thoughts of you as I travel down that glory road to freedom. Please, Clyde, don’t do this.

Don’t do this. I will do whatever you want. I will give you whatever you want. Just, just tell me where Tripp is. Sorry, baby. Damn you. Damn you! I will kill you! I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth and I will slit your throat, you Son of a bitch! Adios, amiga.

Don’t even bother looking for your son. I made sure he’s good and dead. No!

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Sarah: The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout. And down came the rain and washed the spider out. And then up came the sun and

Good morning, love. Oh, and who’s this we’ve got here? It’s my sweet angel. God, I’ve missed you. I’ve missed you both.

Hey, bud, what’s up? Hey, dad, just, uh, just checking in to see when you’re getting here. Uh, about an hour or so, and I’m bringing a big surprise for you. Oh, a good one, I hope. Of course it’s a good one. I will see you soon, okay? Alright, bye. And I’m just leaving Sweet Bits, where I got you your favorite Alice’s Snacks.

Mmm, yummy. Uh, see you soon, honey. I love you. I love you too, mom.

Hi, Brady. Hey.

Hey, how’s, uh, how’s Holly? Actually, um, I have great news. She’s awake. Out of her coma. You’re kidding me. Oh my god, that’s unbelievable. I’m so happy to hear that. When did this happen? Just yesterday. Is she, is she, she’s alert? Is she, is she talking? Well, she’s a little weak, but yes, she’s alert, and she’s, she’s talking.

Oh, God. And the doctors, they, they, they think, they’re hopeful that she will make a full recovery. Oh, God, that’s, that’s what we’ve been praying for. My God, both Holly and Tate. Nick, I gotta ask you though, I’m a little confused. I mean, you know what this means for Tate, you know. How important it is for Holly to, to tell the truth about what happened on New Year’s Eve.

Why, my God, why wouldn’t you call me? Why wouldn’t you tell me that she’s alert and, and talking?

Perfect timing, Chaz. You’re two goes away. Got three top of the morning sandwiches, three vanilla shakes. For you and the kids, I assume. Uh, no, uh, Julie and Steph, actually. Yeah, we’re all meeting over at the, uh, the Wharton house. Hmm, okay. Uh, what’s going on over there today? Well, actually, Julie met, um, met with the adjuster yesterday, so she needs to make a list of everything that can be salvaged, and, uh, and the renovators are there.

Sounds like a lot of work. I suspect you need an extra pair of hands. That’s, that’s good of you, but we got it. No, no, I got this new kid, Adley. He’s quick on his feet, got a lot of good spirit going for him. I’m sure he can take care of everything. I’m coming with you. Okay, great. I’m joining the cause.

Awesome. Alright, let’s go. Stephanie, it’s so kind of you to come and help. I’m really grateful. Oh, you know, I’m so happy to help, Julie, in any way that I can. I know this is a difficult time for you. That obvious, huh? No, no, not at all. But, um, Everett came by and we got to talking. Oh. Did he tell you we’ve all found out that he’s Jada’s ex husband, Bobby Stein?

Yes, he did tell me that. He also told me what a painful, confusing experience this is for him. And one thing became quite clear to me. He cares for you deeply, Stephanie. For what it’s worth, if anything. Stephanie. You know, rebuilding here is going to take a lot longer than a day, so we’d best get started.

Oh, Everett. How good to see you. You still are going by the name Everett, right? Yes. Yes. Because that’s who I am, Dr. Evans. And listen, I mean, if, if, if you don’t believe that, then, then I can’t, I can’t go through with this. I understand. I do believe that you are Everett Lynch. And I, I also think we need to explore the idea of who Bobby Stein is, and, and why you can’t access any memories of the other identity.

But that’s why you’re here. To help you do that. Please sit down.

Can you tell me how you’re feeling today? Ah, well, um, I guess, uh, all the way over here. You know, I was trying to calm myself down because I know, I know you’ll be Impartial, non judgmental, but, uh, as hard as I tried, um,

I’ve never been so terrified in my life, Dr. Evans, of what I might learn about myself. About my past.

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

Everett, of course you’re terrified. That’s understandable. But, to use your words, I am non judgmental. All I want to do here is help you.

I have, uh, accessed some of your medical records. It says here that you suffered a traumatic brain injury and that you were in a medically induced coma. Uh, that’s right, for a year. Yes, a year. Um, tell me, when you were brought out of the coma, what were some of your first memories? Um,

I, I felt like I was in a fog, you know, um, everything was fuzzy. I remember out of the corner of my eye, there was this nurse in green scrubs going in and out of the room. And, uh, and then this, This doctor came in and, and he, he started asking me questions. I imagined to determine how lucid I was.

And the first question that he asked me

was, what is your name? Yes, uh, I assume that you told him that it was Everett Lynch, correct? Yes, that’s That’s right. Because that’s who I am. Yes, Stephanie, it will take more than a day to restore the house. It’ll take a village, as Hillary loved to say. Well, in that vein, I’ve got to go outside, talk to the carpenters who are giving me an estimate.

And if you would be so good as to go upstairs and just check on the guy that’s cleaning the walls. I will do that. Thank you. Doug wants me to, um, Look through the closet in the back bedroom. That’s where he kept all of his, his music archive. Yeah, the, uh, the scores, the, the sheet music, and his memorabilia from, from all the years when he toured the country singing.

You know, clippings, and photos, and I just pray to God that it made it through the fire unscathed, because those are some of his best memories, and well, they mean the world and all to him. I can only imagine. Stephanie, uh, I hope Everett regains his memory, too. You said Marlena was going to try and help them with that.

She is. And hopefully she will succeed. As much as that scares me.

You understand how, how we’ve been waiting anxiously and desperately for Holly to be able to set the record straight about what happened the night she OD’d? Brady. My son is, my son’s life has been on hold. He’s in a halfway house because he was falsely accused of pushing drugs on your little girl. I’m sorry, Brady, if I didn’t call you right when Holly woke up, okay?

But right now we are focusing on her getting better and her well being, okay? My gosh, you’re almost dying, Brady. I know, I know, I know, yes, I understand that. I’m relieved, of course I’m relieved, but I’m worried about my son, too. Nicole, when are you going to talk to her about the drugs? We’ve already spoken to her about that.

And? And, I’m afraid you’re not going to be happy about what she had to say. Oh, Sarah. so

much for bringing her. Yeah, she was missing her dog. I was too. But, hopefully not for too long. What do you mean? Well, I’ve been waiting to tell you since you came in. But you were so excited to see Victoria. No, tell me what? Harris Michaels is awake. And recovering in the hospital. What? Oh my god, did he Did he say who did it, who shot him?

No, not yet, but He will.

Everett, can you tell me about Some of your earliest memories Say from the time you were Three, four years old Because those Memories are the earliest that we think of as retrievable. Um, yeah. Earliest memories.

My mother, when I was, uh, maybe three? She, she baked me this, um, birthday cake. Uh, shaped like a Formula One race car, you know. Single seat with the, The candle sticking out of the open cockpit, uh. She loved to bake. She was, uh, beautiful. Kind. She always used to say, I remember this, um, Just be nice, you know.

Everybody’s going through something. That was her mantra.

Just be nice.

It looks promising, doesn’t it? I think once, uh, once everything’s laundered, a lot of it should be wearable again. And there’s a lot more upstairs. Yeah, well, we’ll salvage something. Wait. Look at this. Look at this. It’s one of Doug’s albums. Yes. I don’t think a needle has touched it since the 1970s. But it’s intact.

Isn’t that wonderful? Doug’s gonna be thrilled. Hey, hey. How’s it going in here? Roman. Roman. What a nice surprise. Yeah, when I told him where I was headed, he didn’t think twice. Wanted to come and we came bearing gifts. Milkshakes and breakfast sandwiches. My goodness. With Stephanie’s donuts and this, it’ll be a, it’ll be a cruise ship buffet.

Well, I’m ready to pitch in. Where do you need me? Oh, I’ll support, uh, put, put me in too, coach. Oh, you are so kind. It’s, it’s, it’s just, you’re wonderful. I’m grateful. Well, we are grateful to be part of this effort. Definitely. Okay, let’s get started. Okay. Uh, these. What do you want these? Oh, oh, ugh. They stink of smoke.

So, if you, if you could, uh, put them in my car for now. I’ll take them to the laundromat in a fluffin fold. You got it.

How lucky am I to have family and friends like you. Bless you. Oh, bless your dear sweetheart.

Why won’t I like what Holly said?

Listen, Brady, Holly is still a little foggy about what happened that night. Things are still a little unclear. But she said that the OD’d on, were not hers. She doesn’t know how they got into her system, so we believe that someone must have slipped her those drugs.

Tell me right now that you don’t think it’s my kid.

Well, EJ wonders who else would have motive and opportunity. Okay, EJ, okay, listen, listen. My kid would not do anything like this. My kid would not push drugs on a girl and try to take advantage of her. Regardless of what EJ thinks. My kid does not push drugs. He doesn’t do drugs. As a matter of fact, Nick, he has an aversion to drugs because he’s fully aware of his parents addictive history.

And you know all about it. Yeah. Okay, you’ve told me about it. Quite frankly, I, I, I don’t know what to believe right now. It’s a lot to take in, okay? But I do know that right now, I need to be home with my daughter. Nick, please, please give me, just please. Sorry, give me a minute. You need to understand that my kid went to jail.

Because he found your daughter passed out on the loading docks, okay? And he panicked like any 16 year old kid would. He looked me in the face and said, Dad, those drugs were not mine, I didn’t give them to her. And I believe him. You know why I believe him, Nick? Because he’s a good kid, he’s a good person. I never said he wasn’t.

And Holly, Holly admits she was foggy about what happened. She’s still foggy about it. My kid has been clear from day one, the day it happened. I think I should, I, I, I need to talk to your daughter. I want to talk to Holly, please. No, Brady, I’m sorry, that’s not going to happen.

Why is that not going to happen? Why can’t I talk to Holly? Because, Brady, right now we are focusing on her healing and well being. And we can’t allow anything to disrupt that. Nicole. My kid’s life hangs in the balance here. Do you understand this kind of thing can jeopardize his entire future? Do you understand that?

My little boy’s not lying! Neither is Holly! Oh God. Brady, listen. Maybe when Holly Feel stronger. We can all sit down and talk, but I can’t make any promises as to when that’s gonna happen.

I have to go, Brady, I’m sorry.

So here are the trash bags for all the trash that we have collected. Oh, if anybody sees a little strange object that might be a key You know, to the time capsule. Time capsule? Oh, yeah, I didn’t, uh, I didn’t tell you. When, uh, when we were here to survey the damage for the insurance claim, Thomas was running around being his eight year old self and, uh, whacked the fireplace and a, and a time capsule fell from the inside.

And we worked hard to get that thing open. No luck. Yeah, I took a picture of it. Yeah, and who knows what Alice put in there. It was over 50 years ago, ancient history of YouTube. Here it is. See? Wow. Yeah, it’s fascinating, ain’t it? I mean, who knows? Maybe you’ll find the, uh, keys to a rusty old mobile that’s hidden away in some long forgotten barn, or some creepy jack in the box.

So jump out and scare the hell out of it. Well, I hope it isn’t anything creepy. We’ve had enough pandemonium and creepy things to last a lifetime. I hope it’s something that just. Brings joy up to the maximum. Hear, hear. Yeah.

Hmm. Obviously you have some positive memories of your mother. Yeah. Yeah, I do. Um, But I admit, I haven’t, I haven’t thought about her in a long time. Okay, would you like to, Explore that relationship with her Maybe next session. Is that okay? Just I’d really I’d like to focus on figuring out you know Who Bobby Stein?

Sure, of course. I actually have a file that Jane has sent over. Um, yeah. It says here that your name is Robert Everett Stein, and your mother’s maiden name was Lynch.

Everett Lynch.

I mean, but that makes sense, doesn’t it? Because it’s my own middle name, my mother’s surname. Do you have any idea why you chose those names? Uh, none, no. No. What can you tell me about your father?

My father. Um,

uh, I don’t know, uh, nothing, nothing comes to mind. My god, I’m, I’m blanking my own father, uh,

sorry. Is that, is that because of the brain accident after the A brain injury after the accident? Yes. I would assume so. I mean, really though? I mean, what does, does every war correspondent or every pedestrian in a road accident for that matter just put Forget their father. I mean, Why, why would I just completely obliterate him from my mind?

So do you suppose that Harris hasn’t said who shot him because you didn’t see the person or because he doesn’t remember? He says he doesn’t remember. And in your very wise, doctorly opinion, will he ever remember? Have those memories sunk to the bottom of the ocean, or are they more like messages in a bottle, and they’re just bobbing around, hopefully to one day reach the shore again?

That’s really hard to say. You know. Well, the difference isn’t me. It’s cobbled together over the years. The cards are stacked against me, we know that. Especially now that Harris may never Say that I wasn’t the one on the loading dock that night? Yes, but there’s another way to look at it. He can’t say it was you, either.

Hey, what are you in the mood for? I got a jelly filled, I got cinnamon crumb in there. Oh, both of those look awesome. But, before we start with donuts, I have something I want to show you. Here, give me your phone, okay? Why do you need my phone? Just give it to me. Why do you need it? It’s this app that I found.

Okay, basically, you can stream any Premier League match for, like, the price of a cup of coffee. So we can watch the Liverpool Man City match next week. Tate, that sounds great, but, um, not right now, okay? Why? What’s the matter? Because there’s something important that I need to tell you. What is it? It’s about Holly.

She’s awake.

Well, this is a pleasant surprise, seeing you down here. It’s out of your bed. Well, I was kind of getting cabin fever in my room. Like the walls were closing in. But I see Santa came early this year. Yum. Oh my God. These are amazing. From Sweet Bits? Uh, where else?

So, um, I ran into Brady while I was there. Chatted a little bit. About what?

You know, what happened on New Year’s. And that Brady’s such a, a devoted father and he loves his son very much and he just refuses to believe that Tate’s the one that gave you the drugs. He didn’t.

Any luck finding a key anywhere? No, not yet. Whoa, look at this. Wait, it’s Yeah, it’s JFK. It’s a half dollar. Gee, there must be so much history all over this house. Oh, yeah. There’s histories here and treasures everywhere. You just need loving eyes to see them. Roman, why don’t you and I go to the backyard and go through that pile of discarded furniture and we’ll decide what can be salvaged.

Will you help me? Let’s go. Okay. I love Julie’s attitude. She is one strong woman, huh? Yeah, she sure is. She, um, she has a knack for turning a sad situation into, um, well, a treasure hunt. Right. She’s been so kind about what I’m going through too. She encouraged me to open up about it.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, you should.

With me. I mean, if you wanted to. Actually, I do. And I don’t. I mean, it’s, it’s hard for me. Because it’s so fraught to broach the subject with you. Hmm. What if I broached it? Sure. Go for it. Okay. Stephanie Johnson. Uh, where Do things stand with you and Everett?

Everett, would you like to stop here? I know this has been quite a lot to take in. I could say that. Alright, we can pick this up next week. Um, I, I would like to, um, try hypnosis. You’d be willing to do that? Uh, hypnosis. Okay. . . It can be a very effective therapeutic tool. And, uh, you, you know what? Read up on it.

Tell me what you think. Uh, no. Um, I, I don’t have to. I, I. Defer to you if you think that it’ll help. Yeah. Well, I think it could be very helpful. And it’s also helpful that we do it right here in the office. Right. Um. Yeah. Okay. Uh. Let’s do it. Okay. How, how bad can it be? Let’s get it scheduled. Okay.

I think, uh, we’re good for it the same time next week if that works for you. Uh, yes, uh, actually, yeah, it does. Good. And your homework is? Just be gentle and patient with yourself. I will do my best.

Thank you, Dr. Evans, for, for everything.

Holly, she’s, she’s awake? Is she gonna be okay? Apparently so, yeah. So she’s talking and everything? She’s fully conscious. That’s That’s a miracle. So she told everyone what happened on New Year’s Eve, right? She told them that the drugs she took weren’t mine? Tate. Unfortunately, no, she didn’t.

So Tate is not the one who gave you the drugs? No, he didn’t. Why would you even think that? Well, honey, because he was your date and you were with him all evening so by power of deduction, he’s the likely culprit. But honey, I mean Who else would have slipped you those drugs, and why? I, I don’t know, but I know it wasn’t Tate, Mom.

He would never do something like that.

Sarah, come on. No, I’m not being Pollyanna, Sander. What I said is true. If Harris’s memory has been wiped of what happened that night, then he cannot implicate you, period. Yes, but also I wasn’t there. You, you do believe that, don’t you, Sarah? Of course I believe that. How many times have I told you that? You know that.

My God, do you really think that I would bring my infant daughter to visit a man who I thought had just tried to commit murder? Of course not. I just wish I could borrow your roast into glasses for a minute. I will admit, I’m starting to get a little bit of a pessimistic outlook. It’s this place. It’s just starting to get to me.

It’s driving me crazy. I think it’s at least, in part, because of the tattooed geezer who stares at me maniacally from the next cell. Honey, I’m so sorry. Oh, what have you got to be sorry about? You’re the most supportive and loving partner a man could ask for. God, I just can’t wait to come home to you and our little angel.

Hey, promise me you won’t go back to our apartment until everything’s resolved, eh? I just hate the idea of you two being there alone. I promise that I will not go back there until you are there. Although, it is so chaotic at my mom’s house, what with Doug, Julie, Chad, and the kids. And oh my god, let’s not forget Constantine, because he’s still there.

I don’t run into him much, but he is there. Oh yes, the uh, Greek interloper Constantine. Yo, honestly, I’m not crazy about the two of you being around that man.

Actually, you know what? I mean, never mind. It’s uh It’s really none of my business, you know, what, what happened between you and Everett. Um,

Uh, but, you know, for, uh, I do want to say something. And, uh, I know, um, you know, when we broke up, and, uh, we went our separate ways, I, I, I know that it was a tough time for you. And then, uh, for me, too. Uh, You you got involved with Everett. Uh, and now this. And I just wanted to tell you that you deserve better than that from both of us.

Thank you. And for what it’s worth, I, uh, you know, had the timing been different and I, and I wasn’t coming off of losing my wife, I’d like to believe that it would have worked for us. I know. It’s just, uh, it’s just It’s hard to hear, you know? Yeah. But, hey, you know what? We’ll always have the, uh, the ring toss game at Six Flags.

Huh? There, uh, you know, you won, um, you remember you won the, uh, the gigantic teddy bear for, for Charlotte? Right? I mean, it wasn’t Paris, but We had, um, we had fun, yeah. Yeah, it was great. We weren’t living together yet. I was just, I was just so happy to hang out with your sweet kids. Oh my God, they love you.

When I told them that you were coming with, they went ballistic. They were jumping up and down, screaming, Oh my God, Stephanie’s coming with! Oh my God, Stephanie! No, I was excited too. Some, uh, pretty good memories, right? Yeah.

Um, yeah, you know, I’m, I’m, I just wanted to say that, you know, if you ever do want to talk, you know, I’m here for you. Or vent, or, you know, hang out with me. And the kids, of course. Uh, I mean, we could go back to Six Flags and, uh, the next time I’ll, I’ll win you a gig gigantic, the giganticus bear that that place has is yours.

I’m getting it for you. I’d like that.

You’re a good person, Steph. And I’m really grateful for you. I’m grateful for you too.

Honey, I, I, I shouldn’t have brought it up. Look, you should be focusing on relaxing and resting and eating these donuts. How am I supposed to relax when you just told me that you and EJ think Tate’s to blame for my overdose, which he wasn’t, mom. Honey, I mean, who else could it have been? Who else would have given you those drugs?

By the way, my parents are both addicts, so there is no way I’m taking those and neither should you. Oh, come on. They’re just some ADHD meds I got from someone at school. Everyone does it. Yeah, well, not me. And I didn’t think that you did either. But they were her drugs. Not mine. Dad, you have to believe me.

I love you, Kate. I believe you. Why wouldn’t I? Alright, your mother believes you too. The problem is, how do we prove it? If Holly won’t admit it. Do you have any proof at all? Do you have anything? My word. That’s all. It’s my word against hers.

Holly? Honey? Where’d you go? I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought this up. No, it’s fine. It’s just What? It’s, it’s all just a blur, okay? But, Mom, I know Tate. And I know he would never force me to take anything. Who would have given you those pills, honey? I don’t, I don’t know, Mom! Okay, I don’t know! Sorry! No, honey, I’m the one who’s sorry.

I hate to see you so hurt. I’m fine, really!

Damn it. Do you have everything you need over there? Of course you do. I’m sure your mum is taking excellent care of you and our little one. She is. She’s doting on us, in fact. That sounds like Maggie. And you promise you’ll steer clear of Constantine, yes? I will. For sure. We will be back in our apartment soon.

I know that. I’m counting on that. Me too.

And as for you, little one, I need you to promise to take extra special good care of your mummy, yes? Two blinks for yes. Okay, drool is fine. And from my part, I promise you, Victoria, I will be back home just as soon as the gods smile down on me. Which I’m praying will be very soon.

You know, um, you know when we broke up, uh, um, and it was awkward for that little bit. I was worried that we’d, we’d, uh, never get to this place. Mm, yeah. Where we are now. Yeah, me too. And I’m so glad that we’ve gotten over that awkwardness and gotten close again because This friendship is really important to me.

To both of us, I hope. Yeah. There’s nothing I would want to do to jeopardize it. Neither. Uh, can I walk you home? Oh, you know not to do that. I’d like to.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Thane and Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

It was from Clyde Weston.

Thank God you guys are here. So what’s the emergency? Did you get another video? Not a video, a call. From Tripp? If only. It was from Clyde Weston. He said if I ever want to see my son again, I need to break him out of prison. In the next 24 hours.

Oh, God. My neck.

What I wouldn’t give for a nice fluffy pillow. I’m imagining you and I on a road trip to Italy right now. After Paris? Mm hmm. So then our trip continues. Oh, definitely. Right now we’re sitting at the most Wonderful cafe eating the most delicious pasta in Rome. Oh, the sauce is magnificent. Brought Diablo by any chance?

Mm. Topped with tons of grated Parmigiano. Oh. Oof. You have some pretty deliciously vivid dreams. Yeah, well it sure beats reality right now. You mean you don’t like being locked inside a fermenter? I will say the, the one thing that makes this nightmare bearable is having you right beside me.

Same here. I’m so glad that’s not a dream.

What the hell, Stefan? Why did you call me so late?

One sec.

Okay. Here goes.

EJ?

I need your help.

So you’re sure that no one followed us? Kate, I was a cop most of my life, I promise you. We’re clear. Okay. Well, I think this is it.

Ah, there he is. Good evening, brother.

Very funny, mom.

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

Honey, I’m so happy to see you. I’m, thank God that you’re safe. Yes, so far I am safe. Are you settling in, Lucas? Well, there’s not much settling in. You know, this is a pretty simple lifestyle here. Yeah, it’s kind of quiet. It’s quiet, yeah. But I hear a lot of stuff, you know. Like I am a humble man of the cloth, lost and confused, taking a vow of silence, renewing my faith in God, but yet no one looks at me or even talks to me ever.

Honey, I guess I was lonely. Mm hmm. What? Better than Statesville. Yes, Roman, it is better than Statesville, I cannot argue with that. But, you know, this is one lifestyle that I’m not cut out for, so, you know. No? No. My darling son, my shy, retiring darling son, my god knows hates attention. This isn’t the kind of lifestyle, I don’t know, that my son the introvert would love.

Look, she’s a riot, isn’t she? Look at you. Yeah, I don’t know, because, you know, like, brother Lucas is kind of, that rings a nice bell, doesn’t it?

You know, when we get out of here, I’m taking you to one of those spas, like the all day job kind of things, where you get the works, you know, massage, manicures, that thing with the crap, like white crap all over your face. They’re called facials. Dr. Dupin’s Charms. And I also wanted my bath. Anything your heart desires.

So then what do you get when we get out of here? Three weeks sitting on the couch watching March Madness. I could have guessed.

I just, I, I, I can’t stand sitting here anymore. I’m going, I’m going, Buggy. Okay. Uh, we can’t have that. So then, pack your imaginary bags, Trip Johnson, because We are going on yet another trip. Okay, well then, I’m psyched, Wendy Shin, because my bags are packed and I’m ready for our next adventure. Yeah. Look, I know you think this is madness.

Well, you got that right. We’re not breaking that murderer out of prison. Hard no for me, too. Okay, but we don’t have any other choice. Don’t you get it? If we don’t break Clyde out, he is going to kill Trip. And Wendy. Okay, see, we have no other option here. I mean, unless you guys have some, some brilliant idea.

I mean, I’m open to suggestions.

What do you got?

You want my help? You can’t be serious. EJ, please, just hear me out. Forget it. Whatever you’ve done now, Stefan, not my problem. EJ, please, I need your help. You are the only family I got left. We’ve been through this all before, Stefan. You scutter around like a brainless roach slipping in and out of the darkness.

And then, somebody turns on the light. Oh no, you panic right before they step on you with a crunch. Please, I tried to avoid the dark path I did, but things got out of control. And EJ, I need your help. Or what? Gabby might suffer another broken neck. I need your help or it’s the end for me.

What are you talking about? I did it. Hey, Jay.

I shot Harris Michaels.

Say something. Anything! What am I supposed to say? I don’t know, maybe start with how? Why? How about What the bloody hell? My brother just confessed to attempted murder of a police officer. What in God’s name were you thinking? E. J., you knew the position I was in. I had no choice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you keep telling yourself that, Stefan.

But don’t try selling that bridge to me. There’s always a choice. Not this time. Clyde ordered me to kill Harris, or Gabby would face the consequences. Oh, Gabby, Gabby, Gabby. Who brings nothing but trouble and misery into our lives, yet you cling to that woman. How in the hell did it come to this, Stefan? I don’t know.

Okay, it just snowballed. And now things are worse, because Harris is alive. How is that worse? Because I didn’t finish the job! And because of that, because I failed, now Clyde is coming from me,

accommodations or queen. Yeah. But, uh, that minimalist look, you know, very trendy. Please judge. Absolutely. Yeah. Your mom suckers me into watching those house design shows with. Oh, come on, you know you love learning about interior design. I do love curling up on the couch with you. I wish we could watch a little baseball, but whatever makes my Katie happy.

Sure. Oh my God, do I have a good husband or what? Yeah. You know, the next time a baseball game is on, I am going to watch a round with you. A round? All right then. What? Why are you smiling? Why are you laughing? Nothing. No, I could just listen to you guys all day. It’s entertaining. Listen to you talk about anything.

Because, you know, I don’t have any TV or radio or music or anything like that. Honey, I’m sure you could wander around the grounds. I mean, the scenery is really quite lovely. I mean, we saw it because the abbot took us for a tour, you know, before he sends us down here to visit you, so. You had a visit with the abbot?

I would have paid money to see that. What? Your mother can’t mind her pees and queues with a man of God? Well, I don’t know. I don’t know. I thought you’d be struck down by lightning as soon as you entered the building. But, good for you. Glass houses, my friend. Glass houses. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you’re right.

You’re right. You know, when I had my visit with the abbot, you know what he told me? He wanted to discuss possible life changes. And thank God that my, uh, vow of silence kicked in so I could put the kibosh on that for a while. Recruitment into the priesthood. Interesting idea, don’t you think? For me? Really?

Why? Because I’m such an introvert, like Mom said earlier? I don’t like women? Why? What am I missing? I’ve been in jail, now I’m here. What does it matter? Okay, uh, uh, listen. I don’t think you should forget that this monastery and the inhabitants are keeping you safe. So if I were you, I would do everything I possibly could to keep it going that way.

I will. But celibacy. I’m drawing the line there. I’m not doing that. Sorry. But you know what? Anything else, I’m gonna be great. I’m gonna be like a rockstar rookie monk. You should see it. I mean, you just wait and see. Wow. Hey, you’re gonna make your mommy proud.

And now, we are going to take a road trip. To pizza. Mm. Yeah. Ooh, okay. Come on in. And a slick little stick shift speedster, huh? Oh, yeah. With the top down and the wind in our hair. Okay, so pizza. So we’re busy in the tower, right? Uh, of course. Oh, mama mia! There it is! Look at how tall it is. Oh, it’s taller than I expected.

Yeah. Huh. Okay. You ready to climb up to the top? I thought you were afraid of heights. A little, but this is a Leaning Tower of Pisa baby, so I’m gonna brave it. Okay? Okay. Oh, wow. Okay, these, uh, These steps are getting really narrow. Oh, sure are. Eight floors up. This is exhausting. Yeah. Oh. Okay. We’re at the top.

Let’s go out on the balcony and take a look. That is only four feet wide. Seriously? Four feet wide? Yeah.

Alright, let’s, uh, let’s take this from the beginning here. How did Wesson get a hold of you in the first place? Okay, so I had come home from a walk and nobody was here, obviously. I had just, I had called you, I had left a message, and then a second later, the phone rang again. I thought it was mine at first.

But it wasn’t. So, so I was searching around the apartment, and I found a burner phone, and Clyde was on the other end. Someone obviously broke in here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was planning on it. Right. Yeah, so that video said that she was being monitored. Right, so what did Clyde say? Oh, God. Well, he made it really clear that if I wanted to see my son again, I needed to break him out of prison.

Okay, did, did he, did he reveal Tripp’s location? No. Any clues? No. Does he expect you to break him out of Statesville? He told me I needed to call my family and get reacquainted with them. That’s it, let’s get the mafia involved here, dammit Ava. I can’t think of a more dangerous move than releasing that monster back into the world.

You know what, there is no guarantee that Weston is gonna hold up his end of the deal. You know that, right? Okay, what I know, Steve, is we have to try. Because this could be the only way we see our son again.

Clyde made his instructions very clear, so let me be clear with the two of you. We don’t have time to ponder. The clock is ticking as we speak. We’re making progress on the video. We’re running it through various recognition programs. Okay, but nothing definitive yet, right? No, not yet. Okay, great. So we are no closer to saving Tripp and Wendy than we were before.

And the cops sure as hell haven’t found anything. Come on, Steve. Steve, we need to do this. Okay, we don’t have any other options. I need to break that bastard out of Statesville today. And I need your help. Dammit, Ava, why did you have to get mixed up with Weston in the first place? Okay, you want to blame me?

Go ahead. Go ahead and blame me. That is fine. Alright, I have made some really bad mistakes when it comes to Clyde Weston, okay? But our son? Our son is innocent. So if you don’t help me pull this off and he dies, then you are going to be the one to blame. And I’m not so sure that you can live with yourself if that happens.

Can you? So,

how are you occupying your time here? Oh, it’s been great, actually. Um, I was in charge of the vegetable garden. Oh. Yeah, but I killed all the seedlings. I didn’t know. I guess you’re not supposed to do that. So now I get to hang out in the laundry room and do laundry. You? Laundry? Yeah. Laundry. I’m a pro now.

I can fold like a madman. All four corners meet and everything. Yeah, well, I can only imagine that. Yeah, well, it keeps me busy, you know, because after I’m done with work, I’m very bored. Because I don’t have a phone. Or anything. Or a baby. But we brought you supplies. What’d you bring me? Yeah, well, let’s see.

First, some treats. So there’s chips, there’s cookies, beef jerky. And in here, a razor, toothbrush, toiletries, a lot of other stuff, but here, Doug sent you books. Salvaged, yeah, from his library. And he said that you’re to start with this one.

Ah, the Counts. The Counts of Monte Cristo. Boy, I can’t wait to dive into this with both feet. Come on, Lucas, you can give it a try. Hey, um, Doug thinks you’re back. State’s phone protective custody, by the way. I guess the fewer people know where I am, the better. All right, I’ll give the Count a try for Doug.

I’m only doing this for Doug. Okay, well you know he’s going to really appreciate it. Yeah. I do miss everyone. I miss my life. I miss my family. I know you do. And you’re gonna get it back. You’re gonna get it all back. I promise you that.

At this moment, I am having serious doubts that Al Jean Pooh truly overlaps. Okay, EJ, spare me the insults. Please. I know I made a terrible mistake, and for that, I feel profoundly But Harris is leaning on me now because he knows that I’m the shooter. He wants me to help them take Clyde out. Oh, he knows you’re the shooter.

Wow. The plot certainly does thicken. Okay, it does more than just thicken, Wiseass. It gets me killed. Because if I help the cops take Clyde out, I’m a dead man. Right. Well, that sounds like a you problem. Oh my god, EJ, have a heart, could you? For once?

I came to you because this thing has spun so far out of control. And because you were my brother and I thought maybe, just maybe, you would have an ounce of empathy for me. Not to mention if you would help me out the first time when I came to you. Oh, no, no, no. Don’t you dare try and blame me for this. I’m not.

I’m not trying to blame you for anything. I am simply saying, that with your help, this situation would not have gotten out of control. But stupidly, I pulled that trigger, and this thing began to unravel. And now, I’m out of options. This is life and death. I’ve got nobody left. I’ve got nothing left. I mean, what the hell am I supposed to do?

You’re not going to do anything. I’m going to call the police.

Sure is cold up here. Oh, but just take a look at that view. It’s breathtaking. I’ve never seen a more beautiful sunset.

I really am a total Dr. Doofenshmirtz, aren’t I? I wouldn’t have it any other way.

So, where are we going now? Well then, let’s just drive by the coast, find a little feel out we can spend the night in. Yeah, okay. Okay. I’m ready. Oh, I love this car. Uh oh. The car broke down. No, not the roaster. Damn it. I guess we’re just going to have to spend the night. Here, just, uh, gazing up at the stars.

Hey, well, as long as I have you right beside me, it doesn’t matter where I spend the night.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

We’re gonna survive this. Right.

Together, we can survive anything.

Emotional blackmail? Really? That’s where you’re going with this? Okay, where else am I supposed to go with this? I mean, I, I have apologized. I have begged. I know, I will admit to you that I am a bad person. I have made bad choices. I’ve been a damn fool about all Stop. Stop. Berating yourself isn’t gonna help anybody, especially not Tripp.

Now come on, we can’t panic here. I know you’re scared, I’m scared too. But we have to focus on what’s important, and that’s finding Tripp and Wendy. Right. Hey partner

We’re running out of options here

Now we can continue trying to dissect this video Or maybe it’s time that we Consider other options John, if we do this, we have to be all in. I got your back, buddy.

Alright. If breaking Weston out of prison is the only way to bring Tripp and Wendy home safely, then that’s what we’re gonna do.

I’ll call Ray for giving the heads up that you’re headed to the station to turn yourself in. Oh my god. Although, come to think of it He might be open to picking you up right here. Are you out of your mind? You know that going to the cops, EJ, is a surefire way to get me and Gabby killed. I mean, come on!

We’re family! Lower your voice, dammit. Holly and Nicole are asleep.

You know, if father was still alive, he would tell you to stand by me, and to do the right thing. But despite our differences, Despite my mistakes, he would tell you to preserve family at all costs.

All right, I’ll call you almonds, raise you two cashes. Oh, come on, I’m out. Kate? I call. I have what I believe is down as a full house. Damn, I thought you were bluffing. That’s a poker face. Well, I learned from the best. Yeah, what the hell was I thinking teaching you how to be me at poker?

On another note, any news? Any news on Harris? Actually, there’s great news. He came out of his coma. Yeah, it looks like he’s going to recover fully. Right, but what about the investigation? I mean, what about the guy who took a shot at me? What about the fire at the Horton House? Well, we all know who’s behind that.

Clyde Weston is determined to burn Salem and everything in its wake to the ground. I know, but is there any headway on the investigation at all? The police are keeping a tight lip, and under the circumstances, I think that’s a good move. Let’s them do their job without letting everything out for Clyde and the whole world to look at.

But he has got to pay. I mean, he has to. Well, as long as he’s still alive and he’s not paying for what he’s done, there’s gonna be a target on my back. What the hell is going on doing out there? Why haven’t you opened the hatch yet? What if it isn’t Goldman? What if it’s your dad or someone who can help us?

Hey! We’re inside! Open the hatch, please! So you conveniently invoke our father’s name in an effort to coerce me into mopping up

your mess. I believe you’ve employed the same strategy with me from time to time.

I’ll help you, Stefan. But, there is no get out of jail free card with this little game. Just like our father, I believe in quid pro quo. So in exchange for my services, You will sign over all of your Demura shares to me. Along with all land holdings and all your offshore assets. You gotta be kidding me. E. J.

will have nothing left. I’ll be destitute. Destitute, yes, but alive. I believe it’s more than a fair trade. Take your time to consider my offer. You can’t be serious. Oh, I am just as serious as you and Gabby were when you did the exact same to me. Or did that slip your simple mind? You know, you should really rent out that space between your ears, Stefan.

My God, you would net a fortune. So this is your offer? Take it or leave it. No matter to me either way.

And what do I get in return? What, besides your life? I’ll have you transported to a safe and secure location. Arrange you passage out of the country. Care to be specific? Ideally, I’ll drop you in a country that doesn’t hold any extradition treaty with the U. S. I have some other ideas, but I will share them with you in all due time.

Any other questions?

Obviously I need to keep Gabby safe. The only way I can protect her And yourself, don’t you forget. Is to give you everything that’s rightfully mine.

Fine. It’s yours. All my shares, everything you want, it’s all yours. You have my word. Well, your word is worthless. But your signature on a binding contract, ooh, that is pure gold. I’ll write something up that will formalize our arrangement without any risk of misunderstanding.

How’s the Horton rebuild coming? Um, well, not fast enough for Julie and Doug, you know, but Chad is handling the insurance and contractors for the most part, so. Yeah, Julie wants to, uh, restore the house to its original look. Her way of honoring the past, but, uh, I mean, that’s gonna be a challenge, but I think Julie can handle it.

And speaking of challenges I talked your mom into a 5k run next month. How’s she gonna do that? She doesn’t wear sneakers. First time, yeah. Good luck. Stop, stop. I mean, I admit I was slow to commit, but then I heard there was the prize, which is a 5, 000 bottle of wine. So I thought, hell no. Of course I couldn’t throw my hat in the ring.

Your mother is a huge fan of the Margot, plus the winner gets a, uh, winemaker’s dinner to boot, so. How can you beat that? Yeah, right. We are both highly, highly motivated. It’s nice to see. It’s nice to see you guys making plans, living your life to the fullest. Lucas, I know that you’re bored. I mean, I know that you’re lonely, but this isn’t going to last forever.

It’s not. No. Have you been thinking about your future? What you’re going to do next when you’re a free man? I have. Yeah. I’d love to start a new chapter in my life, maybe a new venture of some kind. But, um, you know, it’s gonna be tough if I don’t get my freedom, which I probably won’t get. Lucas, you don’t know that.

I know this is hard on you. I mean, I know it is. Way too much idle time, just like you said. And, uh, you miss your family, and you just I mean, all that time that you’d have spent in prison, all of that. You’ve been so brave through all of it, and I’ve been so, so proud of you. I have. And when you’re a free man, all of your family, including your children who adore you, well, we’re gonna make up for, We’re gonna make up for lost time, honey.

Okay? We’re gonna celebrate your return. And we are going to shower you with so much love and affection. Love and affection. I can handle that.

Alright, now that we’re all on board, how are we gonna pull this off? Well, first of all, we need to get blueprints of the prison. We need to know What kind of security system they have in place? What kind of video system? Yeah, sure. Okay. You know, if we had more time, we could disappear Weston into thin air.

Yeah. Yeah. What if we can’t? What if it’s just that easy? What do you mean? You got a plan? I think I might. No! Let us out of here! Please! Please! Let us out of here! It stopped. I knew it. The vents are closed.

How can you tell?

I don’t feel any air movement.

We’re sealed in. Those

are your disguises? With that hat, you look like Audrey Hepburn, I’m sure. Well, that’s a, that’s a lovely compliment. Are you sure no one followed you guys in here? Okay, look. Roman did at least three 180s on our drive over here. So, to make sure there were no one, no one following us. Trust me, we were not trailed.

I guarantee it. Okay, so you have the supplies, the toiletries, the goodies, the treats, the books, the Count of Monte Cristo, don’t forget that. Also, there’s a note from Julie and I, um, I tucked it into one of the other books. Oh. All right, I’ll look for that. Thank you. Thanks for all my supplies, and thanks for coming to see me.

I really miss you guys. We really miss you, too.

Could

you spend some time with me, Lucas?

Hopefully you’re going to be out of here. You’re gonna be out of here really soon. Yeah, well, I’m kind of nervous about that. Why? What do you mean? Well, this is all over. And Clyde’s out of the way, I mean, what happens? Do I go home, or do I go back to Statesville?

There. This covers all points we agreed upon. Uh, excuse me.

I’ll sign here.

You sign that.

Father would never approve of this. Oh, please. This is straight out of Father’s playbook. You thought you could handle Clyde Weston. You were wrong. You thought you could manage Harris Michaels. Wrong again. My help is the only option you have left, and this is what it costs.

It’s the 11th hour, Stefan. Time to wise up. Sign it.

There is another way. Okay, well, there isn’t. We have no choice. We’ve already established that, Steve. So, John, spill. How are we gonna pull this off? I gotta get back to the office. I need some hardware, huh? Yeah, I have an equipment list in mind. I’m gonna have to hit up some of our vendors. Okay, what can I do?

We are gonna need help from your family members if we’re gonna pull this off. Okay. I’ll make sure they’re at the ready. No, no, no, no,

no, no, no. They can’t, of course. Depends if they close the vents. Then that means we won’t be free. We have time. We have time. Time? How much time? I don’t know. But you do know it’s not that long, right? Okay, maybe it is four minutes. No, no, no. I can’t. We’re gonna be okay. Okay. It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s okay.

Okay. He’s trying to stay calm now, okay? Okay. For God’s Drip, what we have to do, Is get the hell out of here. I know. We’re gonna die. We’re gonna die. We can’t We can’t

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Once you’re added to the National Organ Transplant Waitlist, you may receive an organ that day. Or you may wait.

I shouldn’t read any more of this. No, darling, you shouldn’t. But it won’t matter. It doesn’t make a difference what happens, happens. Meanwhile, we’re all here for you. And we’re not going anywhere, Mama, until you get that call saying that they found your heart. Hello, everyone. Oh, hello. Of course. I’m Marlena.

Oh, hi there. It’s so good to see you. It’s so good to be home with your family. Oh, it is so good to be home.

Hello, my friend. You came. Of course I came. Marlena, I need to talk to you.

Ava? Hey.

Do you have any leads? Well, same as when we spoke this morning. Nothing concrete. But I promise you my people are working, doing everything they can to track down Tripp and Wendy. Assume you haven’t heard anything? Um, no. Nothing. Okay, well let me know if you do. I know you pretty well, Ava. I assume you’re using your connection to do everything you can to find Tripp.

And what mother wouldn’t? I’m gonna do anything I can to find my son. I get it. Just be careful. Don’t cross any lines, okay?

Goldman. It’s you.

Yes, darling. I’m still here. Well, Doug, sweetie pie, I’ve been wandering around like crazy trying to find something that will open it, a little key or

Because this is not your garden variety time capsule. I’m being careful. I know. Well, I’ll be home soon. I love you too.

Like

sand through the hourglass, so days of our lives.

I’m here. I’m happy to talk to you. Alone?

Uh, yeah, we’ll go grab some coffee, huh? We’ll be back in about 10 minutes. Okay, Mom? Mm hmm. Take your time.

Okay, I’m here. What do you want to talk about? Marlena.

I’m scared.

Okay, you know what? I will do my job, and you do yours. Alright, Commissioner? Alright, you always got your back up, don’t you Eva? Okay, you know what, Rafe? This is not the day to mess with me, okay? I am a mother whose son is missing. Okay. I was just offering helpful advice.

Okay. Look, I’m sorry. I’m sorry I snapped at you. I am just, I am on edge. Obviously. Okay. I’m sorry. It’s okay. Yeah, I’m sorry. I gotta go. It’s, uh, police business.

Coleman! AHHHHH!

You scared me to death! Well, you give as good as you get. Everett! What were you doing here at this hour? I was I was driving by and I saw a flashlight moving around in the house and I thought somebody had broken in. Nobody broke in. Thank you. That was very nice of you. It’s nice to know there are decent people in the world.

Would you mind shining your flashlight? I dropped mine and I dropped the phone. Oh, there they are. Thank you. Thank you.

I thought you were the arsonist. Come back to finish the job. Is that a possibility? After that threatening phone call that Chad got while the house was burning down, I think anything’s possible. What are you doing here? All alone at this hour?

Well, actually I’m obsessed. While the family was here checking out the damage, we found a time capsule. Little Thomas was playing in the fireplace with the poker and it just fell out. Time capsule? Yeah. Put together by my grandparents in 1966. Wow. Amazing. Have you opened it? No. That’s the problem. What do you mean?

Did you take it to a locksmith? Of course. He was no help at all. He couldn’t figure out how to open it without forcing it, which might break it and then ruin whatever is inside. You see, my grandfather, Thomas Horton, loved puzzles. And this is not the first time he challenged the family with something like this.

So I want to open it the way my grandfather intended. I get that. But what are you actually doing here? I thought if I looked around quietly by myself, checking everything, I might find a clue or some secret little key that would help me open the darn thing. You want some help? I wonder what mom wanted to talk to Marlena about.

Do you know why she wanted to see her? No, I don’t, I don’t. I’m guessing that she is Worried sick, and she’s hoping that Marlena can offer some, some comfort. You know, we’re, we are, we’re battling against time. I know. And the reality is that, uh, this is completely out of our hands. I know. Mother is our rock.

She is our core. And we just, we can’t afford to lose her, we can’t. No, dad, we won’t. We won’t.

Everyone keeps saying you’re wrong, you’re a fighter, you make it through all this,

but I’m not, I’m not feeling strong, Marlena, right now, all I’m feeling is scared because you see, I, I love my life. And my sweet family, my job, my friends, and the thought of leaving, all that.

I want you to know something. You have got a lot of years ahead of you. Okay, a lot of living to do. I want you to remember that. You know, heart recipients are living so much longer now. That can happen with you as well, and I, and I, I know we’re gonna fight very hard to find you the right donor. So it’s, it’s natural for you to feel frightened, but you can also be very strong.

So You can be scared and strong at the same time. Yes, you can. A lot of us fight battles that way all the time. Look, you have got a family who loves you and is standing by you, and I think if you, if you feel you can, let them know you’re right. Let them know what you’re going through and let them, let them comfort you.

But I’m not sure I want anyone to know what I’m going through, Marlena. Well, maybe it’s because I’m physically weak. But, much as you say, there’s still hope. I’m having a hard time clinging to that. That’s the problem. Fighting spirit. Everyone admires me for saluting me right now. My mind, it keeps fast forwarding to a future where,

For what? Where I won’t be here anymore. Not here for my husband, for my daughters, for my friends. So can you help me, Marlena? Can you help me to feel more hopeful? Can you help me to stop fast forwarding to darkness?

What’s going on? What’s the origin? You’re not going to believe it. I found our mole. Who? It’s Goldman. What? Are you serious? I just passed her on the square. She blew me off. How do you know it’s her? Because somebody tried to kill me. She allowed it to happen.

Good thing we found this lantern, huh? Oh, you found the lantern. I’m so short, when I go in the garage, I never even look at what’s on the top shelf. But you can reach it. Oh, my tippy toes. Everett, are you sure you want to spend the evening with an old lady looking for clues? I mean, there must be something exciting for a young man like you to be doing.

Oh, what do you mean? I love a good mystery. And besides, uh, curiosity is, uh, well, half the reason I became a journalist. What’s the other half? Oh, um, this may sound pretentious, but a burning desire to spread the truth. Sounds pretentious. I’ll indulge you. Thank you. Anyway, um, what a great story a time capsule discovery would make.

Yeah, well not if I can’t open it. What are we, what are we looking for? Clues? Or a wanky key? Wanky? A wanky key? If you say so. You know what’s wanky? When I look at you in this light,

You look so much like my cousin, Nick, God rest his soul. He, uh, He was a very promising young man until he lost his way. I’m sorry. What happened to him? He went over to the dark side. Sadly. Anyway. Yeah. Your family has such fascinating stories. I’d love to hear more sometime. Always a reporter, huh? I mean, this house must be Bursting with interesting tales, right?

Family histories buried in the woodwork. Secrets whispered from the walls. Scandal dripping from the eaves. Everett, I don’t enjoy the image of scandal dripping from my eaves. Okay, I’ll, uh, I’ll stop. Thank you. Let’s move on to modern times. So, what’s a story? With you and Stephanie. Do you think there’s a future there?

As you begin to feel stronger. I know you will see yourself. Is that healthy? Vibrant woman. You’ve always been the woman who Lights up every room she walks into. Oh, thank you, Marlena. Oh, you’ve given me respect and comfort. Uh, and, oh, right now I, honestly, I’m feeling a bit stronger after having taken in all you just said.

I’m so glad to hear that. Oh. Now just take this time to enjoy your loved ones. And friends. Yeah. Oh. Right, right now, in this moment anyway, I feel like that fighting spirit is winning over that fear. Thanks to you.

Someone tried to kill you here. Yes, he was disguised wearing a cervical mask. He came in not long ago. He tried to inject something in my IV bag and I fought him off. I was, I couldn’t detain him. The hitman, he ran off and then Goldman is standing right there looking shocked that I was alive and then she took off.

Obviously, she let him in. Unreal. That, that explains it. That explains why she blew me off in the square. She acts like she’s just a straight arrow, stickler for protocol. Yeah, makes her a perfect cover for a double agent. Yeah. Yeah, well thank God you’re okay. I’ll put a new guard at the door, alright?

Obviously this recent development sure puts a new spin on Xander Cook being the assassin. And maybe the guy today was the same one that shot you, came back to try and finish the job. It’s very possible. Yeah. Yeah, there’s a lot we gotta dig into. But first, we gotta find Goldman.

Speak. Is it done? He’s still alive. What? Are you kidding me? Damn, what, uh, What does he got, a guardian angel or something? What the hell happened this time? I don’t know. Maybe Tamara botched it. Maybe he chickened out. Maybe he double crossed me. I saw him run off. And then Then what? Tell me. I’ve been made.

Are you sure? I could tell by the way Harris looked at me. He knows. Well, why didn’t you take him out? A nurse walked in, but there were too many witnesses. I I had to take off.

Alright. We’re just gonna have to move up the timeline then. You know what you have to do next. What about Tripp and Wendy? They’ve seen my face. They know who I am. Well, that’s your problem, sweetheart. And I suggest you solve it. Fast.

Let me get this straight. Jada Hunter has a wedding photo of the two of you as bride and groom? Crazy, right? I’d say so. I thought I must just look like the guy. We’re like twins. Well, it does happen. Um. Adrian Kariakis and Bonnie Lockhart. Look almost identical. Two different women. Different personalities.

Only one of which is tolerable. I mean, that’s the thing. I mean, doppelgangers do exist. It is a phenomena. But Jade, she was hell bent on proving that I’m this Bobby Stein, and so she She ran my fingerprints, and um,

I, I can’t believe this, but um, yeah, they came up as a, as a match, to Bobby’s. Fingerprints don’t lie. I know. I know that. I mean, uh, that’s why it’s such a nightmare for me. I mean, granted, there are, there are gaps in my memory since the accident. I just, how could I have forgotten that much of my life? It doesn’t, it doesn’t make any sense.

No, it doesn’t. Unless you’re lying.

You know, it warms my heart how much you love my mom. I mean, to head after everything that’s happened. You losing your memory, us being kept away from her, and we both found our way back. It was a miracle. It was. And I have to say, your love for each other, you and mom’s, it really does give me hope. It reminds me that even through the darkest times, Dad, we can still find a way to push to the light.

Paulina, a person who donates their heart or other organs when they die is never ever coerced. They do that because it’s It’s their wish. And it’s a kind and enormous gesture. And in a strange way, it Let’s a part of them continue on in the world after they’ve gone. So no guilt, okay? O okay. No guilt. Oh, Marlena, you’re so good to me.

Always there for me. Well, when Lonnie didn’t know I was a mama, when I needed advice about AIDS,

He is my honor. Always has been to be there for you. Right now. I think you need to rest. Uh, yeah. Yes, I do. Oh, I feel at peace now. I think I finally know what I need to do next.

Yeah, I need you to put out a BOLO, an Officer Rebecca Goldman. Yep, that’s the Becca Goldman. Yeah, you have the description. Consider her armed and dangerous. I want her brought in immediately. Man, the rest of the force is going to be blown away when I get that call. Yeah, and now that we’ve exposed our dirty cop, this is all starting to make sense.

I mean, it’s no wonder Goldman shot Clyde’s guy in the drug bust. Obviously, she needed that drug dealer dead, otherwise he would have let us write to Clyde.

Steve.

Tell me that you’ve made some progress on that video with Kip. The waiting is killing me.

Can you call me?

Can you call me and just tell me that you found our son?

Where the hell is that coming from?

Hello?

I’m not lying. I’m not. Everything I’ve told you is all I know. I mean, my God, I would never deceive Stephanie. Or anyone, for that matter. It’s just, it’s not who I am. I’ve always tried. As far as I know, to be a, a, a decent person, you know, caring and loyal and, and hardworking.

I really hope you believe me, Julie. Because I think you’re a wonderful person, and frankly, I just, I need someone to believe me, to not, to not hate me. I don’t hate you. Why would I hate you? I will leave you, Everett.

Thank you.

You say you like Horton family stories, I’ll tell you a Horton family story. My uncle Tommy, who was my mother’s twin, went off to serve in the Korean War. Did not come home. We all assumed he was dead. Years later He appears in Salem, in the company of my Uncle Bill, and neither one of them knew that they were brothers.

This is what happened. While he was overseas, Uncle Tommy developed amnesia. He was captured, and his face was disfigured when he was a prisoner of war. Somewhere along the way he got plastic surgery after that. Looked completely different. Not to mention he had another name. Dr. Mark Brooks. Wow. But, and, how did he figure out who he really was?

Oh, um, my grandfather, Dr. Tom, and my uncle, Mickey, started an investigation. Precipitated by my grandmother, Alice, standing behind that sofa. And noticing a little tiny birthmark on the back of Tommy’s neck. Are you serious? Very interesting. Yeah, interesting. Heartwarming, in the end. Well, I hope when you find out your story you don’t discover that you and Stephanie are related and then she has to run off to a nunnery.

Fingers crossed. I am very sorry. For what you’re going through. And what a blow this must be to Stephanie. I mean, that’s, uh, That’s the hardest part. I mean, she’s just really hurt and confused. Understandably so. I just Got her back, Julie, and now I lost her again.

Maybe forever. Either way, you have to find out about your past. Or like my Uncle Tommy, you’ll never be free.

Well, okay, if we come into Oh, please. I brought you some more ice chips. Oh, thank you, baby. Would you, uh, like some coffee I brought? Oh, Heavens no. It’ll keep me up all night. But, you know, I really should be going.

Well, thank you so much for coming, Marlena. Hopefully, I’ll see you soon. Yes, I’ll be thinking about all of you. And please, hug those babies for me. I will. Good. Marlena? I’ll see you pretty soon. Soon. Thank you again. We’re in this together.

So, sweetheart, are you feeling better? Ah, better.

I need you to do something for me. Anything, Mama. I need you to get my laptop. Now? What do you need it for? I want you to help me draft my last will, testament.

How could I have missed the signs? How? I trusted Goldman completely. She fooled everybody, boss. Why did she do this? Why, money? Could be Clyde has something on her, forcing her to do his work. Whatever it is, it’s gotta be big. It’s gotta be, and who’s to say that Clyde’s not the only one who has, who has people out there pulling strings.

I mean, there could be judges, there could be other cops, uh, what, prison personnel? We have to bring Goldman in. We’re gonna break her down and get her to tell us whether she has accomplices. Yeah. And when we do that, we’re gonna use her. We are gonna use her to bring Clyde to his knees. I am telling you. We are gonna end that monster once and for all.

Well, hello there, little lady. You son of a bitch. How dare you take my son after everything I have done for you. Everything you’ve done for me? What about what you haven’t done? And now let’s get this straight. The fact that your boy isn’t there with you right now is nobody’s fault but your own. Okay, you listen to me, if you hurt Trip at all, I will personally drive a semi truck through the gates of Statesville and I will choke the life out of you.

Do you hear me loud and clear, but it’s real simple. You do exactly what I say and your boy will be fine.

I should have had a will made up a long time ago. But I just assumed I would live forever. Saw no reason to rush it. But now, you know, I might, might get, wait, listen for God knows how long before I get a new heart. So I need to make sure my affairs Are in order

I understand mom and you know now that Eli and I have kids we’re gonna have our wills made up as well Yes, am I. Okay, that’s fine. It’s fine for y’all to be copycats. But how about you just let me be first, okay? Of course. Okay. So, sweetheart, I’m gonna dictate it to you and you take notes, okay? Okay. I’m ready.

Uh, here it goes. I, Paulina Price, declare this to be my last will and testament.

I am married to Abraham Carver. I have two children. Children, Lonnie Price, and Chanel Dupree. Well, as much fun as this has been, I gotta call it a night. Then, uh, pick it up another time. Yeah, I’d like that. I know Doug’s waiting up for me. Oh, while you were in the garage I called him, and I said, you were here, and you were taking care of me, and he was very glad to hear that.

Well, it’s my pleasure to be able to take care of you. You and your husband have been so wonderful to me since I arrived to town, inviting me over for Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve. You’re a, you’re a good guy, Everett. And I hope when you do find out the secret of your past, you tell me all about it. I’d love to, but, uh, I have a feeling you’ll find out before I can tell you.

Word spreads pretty fast in this town. Yes, it does, doesn’t it? I know when you do know the truth, it’s gonna give you peace of mind. Well, goodnight. Thank you, Julie. I told you

I’d put a new guard outside, but if I don’t know who I can trust I guess I could call in help from another agency. I’m sure Clyde doesn’t have people everywhere, but sure as hell feels like it right now. I can take care of myself. Can you just do me one favor? Yeah, name it. Bring me my gun. Now, what I’m about to tell you stays between you and me.

No cops, no stiff. Okay. Instead of you coming to Statesville to do me in, you’re gonna get your little fanny over here and break me out. Are you out of your mind? A prison break? How the hell am I supposed to pull that off? Well, it’s time for you to shapeshift from that doting mama to vitally mom princess.

You can call your family. You got the numbers. I know you do. No. No, I can’t do that. Oh, yes, you can, and you will. Cause if I’m not out of this prison in 24 hours, that bambino of yours is going to be pushing up daisies.

THIS STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING!

So this is it, huh? This is how it ends. Neat. Clean. Easy. And then curtains down for Harris Michaels.

You know, if someone did in fact kidnap Tripp and Wendy, they sure as hell knew how to disengage their phones. Last pings came from outside the park near the square. Yeah, during the event. Right. You know, with Wendy’s tech prowess, it’s possible that they could have coerced her into showing them how to do it. Mm. Oh, man.

I think we’re gonna need to move through some back channels now. That takes more know how. Yeah, well Hang on a second.

Hey, son. How’s Tate doing? Hey, dad. Well, we just got here. We haven’t checked in yet, but I know that you’re on the visitors list, so do you think you can make it? Hold on a second. Um, it’s Brady. Tate just got moved to a halfway house. He was wondering if maybe I could Go. Go. Don’t have to ask. I think you just got the okay, so I’ll see you soon.

You got it, kid.

Buddy, take off. It’s okay. Hey, I’m still waiting for notes on that Ava video anyway. I’ll stay here. I’ll keep working at, at this until you get back.

We’re gonna find your boy. Come hell or high water.

I

thought he would never leave. You again? I was in the neighborhood. Have you tried the shashouks at the little cafe down the road? Oh, the eggs are cooked beautifully, but it could have used a little bit more salt. I don’t have time for your restaurant reviews. I am busy. Well, I too am a busy man, Mr. Johnson.

But I have made time in my busy schedule. To see you.

Room service. Hi, honey. How are you doing? It’s still all weird to me. Oh. Yeah, I, I understand. So I was wrong before, wasn’t I? It’s way past New Year’s Eve, right? You know, honey, the doctors assured us that when, uh, a person wakes up out of a coma, they tend to pick up where they left off. Do you remember Damar Hamlin, the Buffalo Bills player who got knocked out on the field and then was in a coma for a few days and, well, the first thing he said when he woke up was, did we win?

And against all odds, he’s playing again. How inspiring is that? Yeah, that’s great, but I’m not a professional football player. And mom, you haven’t let me see my phone or watch the news. You said I was in a hospital in Italy? I just, I can’t even wrap my brain around that. Holly. Mom, what is it you’re not telling me?

So, how are we doing?

Okay, Dad’s headed over. Great. Tate’s going to be so happy to see him. Yeah. Hi, uh, we are, um Teresa Donovan and Brady Black. We’re here to see our son, Tate Black. You’re on the list, Ms. Donovan, so you can just head on into the visiting room. Um Oh, I’m sorry. What about me? Brady? Brady Black? You are not listed.

Um, okay. There’s been a mistake here. See, this is, this is his father. I’m sure it’s on the list. I’m sorry, I just can’t let anyone in without the patient’s permission. Go on. Go on. He’s, he’s waiting for you, so you go.

Okay, I’ll talk to him. Go. I’ll be here if you need me. All right.

Oh. Tight. Alright, Mom. Oh. So good to see you.

You know your dad’s here. Don’t. Just don’t do this, Mom. What? What am I doing? What are you doing? Really? You’re trying to guilt trip me into seeing him, aren’t you?

Sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. Thank God you’re

here. I’ve been challenging for a cappuccino. I’ll be back in a jiffy. You, uh, you want anything?

Bitch.

What are you doing? I whipped up some of my famous baklava rolo. It is an old family recipe that my mother god rest her soul passed down to me. I’m not hungry. You’re not hungry? Well, you might be in a little while because we are going to be here for a while. Uh, do you have coffee? Uh, that old American diner style coffee with the drip, drip, drip stuff?

Just ran out. Ah, what a shame. That is too bad. Ah, well, here you go. Oh, thanks. You are really missing out. You know, I gave some to the children this morning. Thomas and Charlotte at the house, and they just gobbled them up. That’s why I like to call them the little goblins. I love children. I really do.

Really love them. I don’t have time for this. You don’t have time to have a delectable Greek pastry, huh? Well, you should make time. Ella, pedacimo. It might remind you of Greece. The time you spent in Aria, to be precise. You know, my Catalina, she loved baklava rolo. Oh, yes. I had to hide them from her. She loved.

She loved so very much, everything. She had what you might call a zest for life. Don’t you ever shut up! Now listen, I’m in the middle of a case here. I don’t have time for this.

So your son is still missing? What’s it to you? Well, it’s just that I I can certainly relate to the pain that you are going through. The acute anger, frustration. Pining for answers that remain excruciatingly elusive. Yes, well, I do understand. The pain that you are going through, the hell that you are going through, because I go through it every minute of every day, Mr.

Johnson, wondering who killed my daughter.

You’re doing great. Uh, EJ, can you help me get Holly up? Honey, Sarah said that you should get out of bed a few times a day and walk around. Yes, absolutely. After being in bed so long, well, we mustn’t let the muscles atrophy. You’ve been in bed for so long. How long? How long have I been in a coma? Easy, honey.

Easy. First things first. Come on. Here we go. Let’s get this over and done with. Ready? Hold on. There you go. Ready? Down. Hold on. You in? Let’s go. Oh. Yay, honey. This is great. Look at you. There you go. And turn you right. And there we go. There baby. Yum.

What? What? It’s, it’s, it’s chicken broth and smashed bananas with a pinch of cinnamon for a little kick. Ugh, gross. Nah, someone pass me my phone. I’m gonna order a burger from Buddy’s Burger Bar. No, honey, you can’t have that. Why not? Well, because Sarah said, and every Google search known to man said, that you have to reintroduce Certain food groups in your system slowly.

Well, how is it gonna help my system if you’re giving me food I won’t eat? Well, how about some chowder from the pub? No. Uh, yeah, never mind. It’s too rich. Never mind. French fries? And what are you gonna ask for next? Froglois or fried Oreos from the state fair? Bet. Bet? What? What? Bet? What does that mean? Oh my god, mom.

What? It’s Gen Z slang. Gen Z slang? It means like word. Word? Bet? I’m Sorry. What? It’s okay, sweetie. What? What? What’s so funny? It’s nothing. It’s just watching the mother daughter back and forth. It’s beautiful. I missed it. I’m sure you have. I have. Oh my god. Guilt tripping you? I’m not guilt tripping you. I’m just trying to tell you that Mom, I mean it.

Do not try to force me to see dad today. Tate, you can do whatever you want, okay? But just hear me out. You and your dad had a great relationship before all this happened. You guys were best buds! Yeah. Yeah. We used to be. But, ever since I started therapy, well, it brought up a lot of stuff for me. Especially how dad wasn’t there for me when I was growing up.

Like, when we moved to California, I Yeah, about I’m moving to California. Yeah?

I had a big part in that. What do you mean? I’m the one I kept you from your father.

It is a parent’s worst nightmare, losing a child. They say it gets easier with time. No. Oh, it does not. I miss my Katharina more as time goes on. No less.

She was my heart.

She was the only good thing I ever did.

Do you feel that way about your children, Mr. Johnson?

My children mean everything to me.

Well then, you must understand how terribly painful my loss Has been.

Do you understand?

How could I not?

I appreciate your empathy, Mr. Johnson. More than you know.

Hey, buddy. Dad, thanks for coming. What’s, uh, what’s going on here? Have you been in to see Tate yet? Uh, no, no, I haven’t been in. Teresa’s actually seeing him right now. Oh, okay. He didn’t put me on the list. Oh, come on, son. I have seen you and your boy together. Let me tell you, that bond is strong. I mean, come on, does it need a little bit of work here?

Yeah, you know, so let’s give it some time, some patience, and with a little bit of effort, I can guarantee you things are gonna be A OK. I’m hoping so. Listen, don’t I know that he wants to see his granddad, so why don’t you, uh Why don’t you go in there? He’ll be happy to see you, okay? Go on. Okay. Love you, buddy.

Love you, too. No.

No, you didn’t You didn’t move me to California to keep me from Dad. You No, you’re just making that up to cover for him. No, I’m not.

The reason I have custody of you is because I made up What? You made up what?

I made up a lie that implicated your father in a murder case.

I lied. And that got me custody of you. And that’s what allowed me to take you with me to California. So my point is, that man out there that you refuse to see? I have hurt him. So much more than he has hurt you or hurt me.

Your father loves you. He always has and he always will.

Um, there’s something else that I think that I want you to know about your, your father. Actually, about me.

You remember that first night that you were sent away? I was a mess. And I slipped. I slipped. In a really big way. And guess, guess who was there for me? I mean, totally, totally there for me. Kind and forgiving and supportive, even after everything that I have done to him. Your father, Brady Black.

He needs you in his life. And you need him. Hey, dear.

Where are you, kid?

Your mom’s right. Your dad needs you because he loves you with all his heart. And your mother here, you know what? She just took a really big risk in telling you the truth. That was brief of her.

You know why she did that?

Because she trusted enough in your love for her. She knew she wasn’t going to lose you. You know what we call that?

Unconditional love, T. And that is what your mother and your father have for you. That is what your grandparents have for you. Always. Or ever.

I

heard you survived those bullets, you son of a bitch. Better

luck this time.

Not so fast.

No, you’re not going anywhere, pal. Ah! Stefan? So good to see you.

Listen, Constantine. I understand that you’re still grieving your daughter. But if you’re somehow trying to implicate me in her death No, no, no, no. I am not trying to do anything. I am merely sharing, uh, how her death haunts me, pains me, every minute of every day.

No one was supposed to die that day. It was an accident. A terrible accident. Which you witnessed. Did you not? No, no, not directly.

But you admit, you were there when Katharina died. When the pawn put a bullet through her head.

You were there. Were you not?

I’m good, Mom. Really, that’s all I want. Okay, well that’s a good start anyway. Well, um, let’s get you back into bed, shall we? Not yet, okay? Mom, you said you’d answer some of my questions, so how about answering those now? Okay, what do you want to know? Everything. Starting with why I was in a coma for what, months?

You had opioid laced drugs in your system.

Drugs? What? It’s okay, Colleen. We know that you don’t do drugs. And believe me, we are going to get to the bottom of what happened. But however it happened, it was an overdose and your heart stopped several times. You nearly died. Before you slipped into unconsciousness. And it, it happened on New Year’s Eve.

That’s when I thought it would, when I came to. Honey, do you remember anything else?

No, um, not really. Just, just the sound of fireworks. But darling, just, just try and think hard. Think hard for back then for you were drugged with potentially lethal drugs that in fact almost cost you your life. So it is very important that we know where they came from. Honey, where did you get the drugs?

It’s hate. Hey,

your father, he’s missed you so much. He’s out there in the waiting room, he’s just hoping you’re gonna agree to see him.

You know,

I just found my long lost father. Your great grandfather. Timothy, he’s a wonderful, spirited man, which I missed out on so many years with him. And neither one of us were ever gonna get those years back. I’m just saying that I don’t want you to look back one day and have any regrets about the time that you missed with your dad.

You know Tate, but it’s your call.

So what do you say? Can I, can I go get him and tell him that you would like to see him after all?

Can I help you? Tate Black would like to see his father. Okay, sure, I just need to make a quick call.

Hello, this is Olivia confirming that Tate Black will allow his father to visit. Thank you. You can go in to see your son now, Mr. Black. Thank you. Listen, I gotta take off, but uh, you’re gonna call me, right? Yeah, of course. I love you, son. And Tate? You got yourself a good kid in there. I know he’s a good kid.

I’ll see ya. Thank you again. Love you, buddy. You know I had no choice in this. We all have choices. Uh, what do you want from me? You seem to follow instructions really well. I like that in a person. Now I have some instructions of my own for you. Are you listening? I’m listening. Yeah? You work for me, Gamera.

You’re gonna take the fall for this, and you’re gonna help me take Clyde Weston down, do you understand? I understand. That’s good. Oh, that’s good.

Do You need to confess, Mr. Johnson? Because now is the time. Surely, it would help you to, to relieve the guilt. To finally admit the truth. Nothing

will relieve me of that guilt. So you were there? In Aria? On that terrible day?

Answer me, Mr. Johnson.

Yes. Yes, I was there.

God, how I wish I hadn’t been.

Please. Tell me more, please. For both our sakes. We both deserve to have peace of mind about this. Don’t you agree?

Sure. It will unburden you. It will help. I assure you, it will help. It was a long time ago. Decades. We were different people then.

But yes. I was the pawns handler for Victor.

He called me away to give me some instruction.

And when I came back,

there was a young girl lying there.

Dead.

That image has tormented me all this time. I didn’t know who she was.

But you do now.

I do now.

And the bomb? Where was he when you came back? He was there, just holding the gun. And someone else was lying next to the girl, flat, on the ground. I couldn’t see that person’s face,

but I knew it was you. Hey son. I have to go make a call. It’s uh, it’s good to see you.

Yeah, it is. It’s good to see you too. Look man, I um, I don’t know what grandfather said to you. No, it was mom. Yeah, she um, she told me the truth about what happened. Between you two. What she did so she could take me to California and away from you. Pauline.

Tell us, please. , where did you get the drugs? Did Tate give them to you? Uh, I, I don’t know. I, I don’t remember taking any drugs, so someone must have given them to me, or maybe they slipped them into my drink without my knowing. I, I don’t know. So no one gave you the drugs? Not Tate, not anyone. Mom. I’m, I’m just really tired.

Okay. So you need to rest. Yeah, of course, honey. Of course. Come on. That a girl. Let’s see. There we go.

What’s the plan? He’s gonna keep me here? No, I’m gonna keep you here until we’re clear on where things stand. I know where things stand. Just a reminder, I got you on attempted murder of a police officer. Not once, but twice. First, a loading dock, and now with a syringe. And look, you’re not wearing gloves, so your fingerprints are all over the murder weapon.

Do you know what kind of time you’re gonna freaking serve?

You ready to play ball?

Where is he? Where is that bastard who killed my Katerina? I will suck the life out of him! No, no, no. John is not the one you want. He was not the puppet master there. Whatever he did was out of his control. But you do not deny he was the pawn, huh? He was transformed into that maniac by Stefano DiMera. And he’s dead.

And so is Victor. So if it’ll make you feel any better, go spit on their graves. But leave John out of this. He has suffered enough. He suffered? I have suffered! And now I want the both of you to suffer, like I have suffered! What do you mean by that? Your missing son, he may still be alive. But my daughter is dead!

And I will have justice!

Did you hear what she just said? I knew it. Someone slipped her those drugs and we both know who that someone was. No, we don’t know that for sure. Oh, come on. Who else could it have been? No one else was drugged at that party. Holly was roofied. And there’s no one else who would have done that except for her date that night.

The little swine who was trying to get into her pants.

Is this true? Did you, did you, you told him? It was time that Tate knew the truth. Oh, I really don’t know what to say. I do. I’m sorry, Dad. I’m so sorry.

You don’t have anything to be sorry about, Tate. None at all. And I thank you for telling the truth. I’m grateful.

I love you. You’re my kid, I love you so much. And your mom and I, we’re always gonna be there for you, no matter what, okay? You hear me? Come

here.

We have a lot to catch up on, don’t we? Yeah. Yeah, we do. Do you know what it was like for me to watch the Super Bowl alone this year? I picked you, Dad, in a room full of chicken wings and pizza and a giant 4K television and no one did It was awful. Yeah, well, I had no one to ask to kick in fantasy basketball this year, so Okay, stop it.

And, um, Mom, thank you for opening up to me. Really, for having the courage to tell me the truth about you and Dad. I’m so glad I did. Just seeing you both laughing together, it just You have no idea how happy it makes me.

I knew I’d find you in here. Yes.

Just making sure this was all still real. Holly’s home and she’s come back to us. I understand that need. But I assure you, my darling, it is very real. And

now EJ, I mean, she doesn’t I obviously remember that she was drugged and I just, I so hope that those drugs weren’t hers that did this to her. I guess because I would feel like that would reflect on me because if she were using, that means I failed her as a mother. But you haven’t, Nicole.

But I have, in so many ways. I’ve been selfish and self absorbed, and if those drugs that almost killed my daughter, if they were hers, then that’s just another box ticked off on a terrible mother checklist. And yes, you know what, sure, I, I I could say that I should have been there for her more. I mean, recently, just losing the baby, and then losing my mind, and stealing Eric’s baby.

I mean, it just It was so lost. It was just And, and, and And pain. And it was hurting, and I’m trying to make sense of it all. And I just was really I was just trying to handle how to get through every day. Nicole, sweetheart. I need you. To stop beating yourself up. Look at me. You are a wonderful mother. And darling, Holly made it clear that those drugs weren’t hers, which means she is completely innocent in all of this.

Holly is a wonderful young woman. And you have raised her right. You should be very proud. Very, very proud. Now come on, let’s let this lovely young girl get some rest, okay?

Okay.

So, any late breaking news since I left? Um, yeah, that’s right, no problem, no problem. If you don’t come to us, we go find the leads, right? Because our number one priority here is bringing your boy home safely. Definitely. All right, now you said, Dylan, when I left here that the last cell phone pings were heard what, outside the park?

Yeah. That’s right.

Yeah. Right there. All right. Nice. See, partner? We’re already making progress. Let’s keep at it.

You can go. I’ll be in touch. Yeah. All right. Oh, God. God! Oh! Oh! Please. Oh, gosh. Uh, Uh,

What the?

Goldman! It’s you!

THIS STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING!

Oh, you just had to wake up, didn’t you, Harris?

Damn it! One frickin thing go right!

What now? Hey, watch your manner, Stefan. That ain’t no way to answer a call. Especially one from me. I

wish, I just wish I could just Wake up from this nightmare and Tripp and Wendy would be home, sitting on the couch and laughing, and I just, Harris would be fine. He’d be okay. You know what? Unfortunately, neither one of us is gonna wake up from this. This is happening. So we need to stay focused. Did you call Wendy’s parents yet?

No. I haven’t. I just, you know, I’m not ready to yet. Ava, they need to know what’s going on. Should we do it together? And say what? It’s usually what we’re supposed to say. Oh, hi, Mr. And Mrs. Shin. Um, your daughter and our son are missing and we don’t have any idea where the hell they are.

Oh my God.

Does your back feel any better? Uh, you know, if I imagine myself in a yoke class on a warm beach, that definitely helps. Want to do the same thing. Yeah. Look, I know that it’s hard to stay positive right now, but we gotta at least try. Yeah, well I’m positive that I want to punch Officer Coleman in the face.

Yeah, I hear you there. I just hope my mom sees the video and doesn’t completely freak out. Oh, she definitely will. But at least she’ll know we’re alive. Maybe she can figure out where the hell we are.

Eric, a little help here.

Oh my god.

You’ve got to be kidding me.

How’s mommy doing? She’s uh, she’s taking a nap. It’s called resting my eyes. How you doing, Mama? Fine, now that you’re here, my darling. And my Abraham, too. Well, I’m glad. And you know, I know something that’ll make you feel much better.

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

I was planning on it, too. Oh, Lonnie. Hi, Dad. You know, it’s just You’re getting released now? What timing. I mean, this is just great news.

Now, where are the They’re with Doug and Julie right now. They had a long day of travel, so they needed some down time and so do we.

Yeah, but not, it’s not like they’ll get that with Julie and Doug or with Thomas and Charlotte. They were just all over Carver and Jules, waiting to show them all their toys and games. And, uh, Says I hear we missed the wedding of the year. Oh yes, it was a gala event. No, actually it was simple and perfect.

Just what the doctor ordered. And where’s the husband of yours? Oh, Johnny went to grab some snacks, but he’ll be back soon. He has been here with me, Mama, and Abe through all of it. Hasn’t he, Mama? Uh, sure has. Yes, Ember. All of it. I’m sure Chanel means first my surgery and then my heart kind of going south on me.

Uh, um, you must have heard about that, Lonnie. Yeah, Mama, I did. Well, my heart, it may be failing, but right now it’s oh so full. Now that my I have my two beautiful daughters here with me. What do you think? Oh, there you are. Happy Valentine’s Day. Eric, is this the emergency you had me rush home for? It is.

I, I hope I didn’t scare you. No, I mean, it’s okay. This is so beautiful and romantic. The decorations are just the beginning. Because I have some very big plans for our special day.

So? What do we do now? We’ve shared childhood stories, and a game of I Spy won’t really work in here. I’ve got an idea. I’m open to any and all suggestions. Good, good, because I’m, uh, taking you to dinner. Yeah, that seems like a slightly illogical suggestion given the circumstances. Aw, I mean, illogical, that’s just relative, right?

I mean, one person finds illogical, the other person could find perfectly illogical. Logical and sensible, right? Okay. Okay, then allow me to be the perfectly logical and sensible person And suggest that we go to dinner in the most romantic city in the world Paris

Clyde I wasn’t expecting to hear from you today. Really? Even with the recent turn of events. Okay, look, I, uh, I’m in the middle of a crisis at the restaurant and I’m needed on the floor and that’s not a good time. Kind of hard to get back on the floor when you’re not at work, isn’t it? I mean, when you’re at home.

In your, you know, fancy mansion. How the hell? Hey. You will never see my people. You understand that? Yeah. Got it. But I got a lot of stuff I gotta take care of right now. Okay? Not okay. You should be focusing on your number one problem. And what’s that? Harris Michaels. He’s awake.

What is it? It’s a video. Of Tripp and Wendy. Play it. Hi mom. First you need to know that Wendy and I are okay. You’re getting this message as a warning to keep your mouth shut and not talk to any law enforcement about anything you’re currently involved in. And you will not tell anyone about this video.

You’re being monitored. So, be very careful what you say or do and be sure to do exactly as you’re told when you’re contacted. If you follow these instructions, Wendy and I can come home. And if you don’t, you’ll never see us again. I love you, Mom. Oh my God, Steve.

What do we do? Of course I’m being watched. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. That might be an empty threat, just to keep you in line. Okay, this is Clyde Weston we were talking about. He doesn’t make empty threats. He only makes promises. And did you see, did you see Wendy and Tripp? Did you see how exhausted and scared they look?

Where, where the hell are they? What are you doing? Trying to answer your question

Okay, so Our dinner in Paris. How do we make it happen? You know without actually flying there? Well See we make it happen with

A pot of water. Okay. Protein bar. And Chocolate kisses. Oh, Goldman was ever so generous, isn’t she? Learned it cold. Plan wasn’t intended. Fantastique. Now

Care to join me, mon amour?

Bien, sir, mon chéri. So When did you and my grandbabies get into town? Earlier today. All we did was drop off the luggage and the kids. We wanted to get here as soon as possible so we could see you. Oh, well, I, I appreciate that, my, my loves. Oh, oh, shoo. Oh, oh, just need a minute. I’ll come. You just take it easy, sweetheart, alright?

Chanel, you take Eli and Lonnie and show them where the ice machine is, and then you all can, you all can bring back some ice chips for your mom. Uh, of course. We’ll be right back.

You didn’t have to do that. What did I do? You sent them out of the room. Because you sensed there was too much excitement for me. Wow. And having them all in here. It’s part of it, it’s part of it, but I thought you might need a little break from coming out. Yeah, I wanted us to talk for a moment. Just the two of us.

Hmm.

So, I have cleared your calendar for the day. You obviously had my assistant go along with this. Well, Lillian knows how hard working you are as a boss, and so she was happy to help. And Jude’s sleeping? Actually not, he’s not here and he won’t be for a couple of hours because my mom is on grand babysitting duties.

We have the place to ourselves. Listen, I just want to give you a proper Valentine’s Day. Because I feel bad for conking out on you. Well. This is the perfect Valentine’s Day redo do over. And I’m just grateful that you did it for me. You’ve been working a lot. You’re a new mom. And I know how tough it can be.

But I wanted to make sure you know how important you are to me. Happy Valentine’s Day, my love. Happy Valentine’s Day. Look, Clyde, I’m well aware that Harris woke up. I was at the hospital when it happened. Yeah, so I heard. You and Ava both. So if you know that, then you know Harris doesn’t remember who shot him, so I’m in the clear.

In the clear? Do you think that because Michaels can’t remember you shooting a gun at him, that that lets you off the hook with me? Why wouldn’t it? Because I told you, in no uncertain terms, the last time we spoke, that you need to finish the job. That if Michael somehow regained consciousness, it was your job to make sure he lost it again.

Permanently. So unless you want to disappoint me more than you already have, you’re gonna finish the job, dammit. And you’re gonna do it today. Look,

I didn’t forget what you said, but it’s not like I can waltz into that hospital and shoot the guy. You seem to be under the impression that you have a choice. He is under 24 7 surveillance. And you know that. Which means, as long as Harris Michaels is in that hospital bed, he is untouchable, so how the hell am I supposed to kill him?

The how part is really easy. And I’ve already taken care of that. I’m pretty sure even you can’t screw it up. Close your eyes. And close my eyes, yes? Yes, of course. Okay, now I’m back to English. Now, we’ve been walking up and down the alley looking for this one cafe. Okay. And then, boom, something appears right on Rue Teilhard.

We take our seats, the waiter greets us. Ah, bonjour, monsieur, mademoiselle. Bonjour, monsieur. I, I tell the waiter, I was like, oh, pardonnez moi, my French is a little rusty. And then he smiles, he doesn’t mind. And then he welcomes us to the The finest café in Paris. Oh, wow. C’est très belle ici. It’s light. It’s the delicious aroma of all the French delicacies.

Escargot, quiche Lorraine, bouffe aux guignols. Oui, oui, oui. Et maintenant, il est temps pour un peu d’eau. À votre santé, mon chéri. Sante. Oh, Abe. I feel so lucky. Oh, have my beautiful daughters here with me. And you. My darling husband.

We are the lucky ones. And, hey, I know you’re dealing with your own issues. And, yet, yeah, in spite of all that, Still here with all of us here for, for all of us.

100 percent day and night. I don’t know how you do it. I’ll tell you my secret. Love. I love you, Pomona. That’s what motivates me. Our family. It’s the most important thing in my life. And you? You are the most important person in my life.

Mama was so happy to see you both. Me too. You came at exactly the right time when we all needed you the most. Well, we need you too. I mean, what mom was going through, what you’re going through. Yeah, it’s been tough, but mom is being really brave. Chanel, how serious was that heart attack? Um, it was pretty serious.

It was bad enough that she may need a new heart. A heart transplant. Yeah, it’s not definite yet, but Kayla said that it is a possibility. Okay, well, we will deal with that when we know more. Um, you got married in the middle of all of this? Mhm. Um, Mama, she was feeling pretty down about the wedding possibly having to be postponed due to her surgery being moved up, and so then Johnny came up with the idea to just have a small ceremony here.

That’s great. Um I know Mama would just enjoy every moment. Oh yeah, she was so excited. We all were. Abe officiated. I guess that. How are you doing? I’m doing okay. You know, like I said, Mama, she’s being stoic and brave. So I’m just trying to do the same. At least, you know, in front of her. But I’m really really grateful that you guys are here, and I know that the twins can’t see mama right now But I think that just knowing that they’re close by will lift her spirits because it’s definitely lifting mine I can’t wait to hang out with those little munchkins.

Oh, you’ll definitely get a chance lots of chances Is there anything we could do right now? No, just just Being here, really. You know, we can take turns sitting with mama, so if you and dad want to go and shower and do whatever you need to do. Thank you. Thank you. That will be super helpful. Yeah, and I think we just have to keep positive energy.

Well, that’s what we’re going to do, as a family. As a family. Okay, we’re going to get through this.

I just can’t believe how quickly you pulled it all together. I have my ways. I just wanted you to know how much you mean to me. Not how much I love you and our family.

I love you too, Eric Brady. You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me. You and our son. Wait. Wait. What? What is it? Just

wait a minute, okay? What are you hiding behind your bag? I think I am ready for my valentine’s day present. Oh. I

think I’m ready too. And don’t you go anywhere. I wouldn’t dream of it. Right,

here’s some ice chips, mama. Oh, thank you, sweetheart. Well, uh, uh, Lonnie and Ela. Oh, uh, they’re checking in with Julie and making sure the twins haven’t torn the house up yet. Oh, you know what, um I think I’m gonna go get a cup of coffee. I’ll be right back.

Oh, Mama. Can you believe that Lonnie is here? It’s a miracle. I can’t wait to cook us all a big family dinner. Okay, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We need to get you feeling better before you start cooking up a storm. Ooh, hold up now. If anybody’s going to be cooking up a storm, it’s going to be me.

We’re working on some recipes that I think will be price approved. Oh, Eli. Let me, let me, let me. Look at you,

I was just seeing you and my sweet Lonnie today. I was so good for my soul. Not that having Chanel and Johnny and Abraham. Yeah, pretty much day and night hasn’t been wonderful and comforting, but now it feels complete. My husband, my kids, my grandkids, oh, close by, oh, it already feels like my heart is getting stronger.

Cause it’s, Just so ill to the brim with love.

A package will be arriving shortly. Do you hear me? Yeah, I hear you. Inside you’ll find a vial and a syringe. You’ll inject the contents of the vial into Michael’s IV bag. And then what? A man will suffer what will appear to be a fatal heart attack. And that will be that. And just so we’re clear, when this is done, you and I were square, right?

Come on, Stefan. You’re smarter than that. Just do the job, and don’t screw it up.

Find anything yet? No, not yet. I just need to study this more closely. There must be something here that can give us a clue as to where they took Tripp and Wendy. I’m just gonna take it apart frame by frame.

Okay, so now You’re right, he’s still young, is he not? Oui. So, what next? How about a stroll along the Seine? You know, Paris at night, I’m there for you. As I close your eyes, it’s gonna be spooky. Okay. I will film, I miss you. Hey, mental mom. You see the Eiffel Tower twinkling in the distance? I do see it.

Magnifique. Oh, that sure was a cold wind off the river. Let me warm you up, ma chérie. Merci beaucoup, mon amour.

Happy belated Valentine’s Day. Same deal. Will you promise me that we’re not ever gonna go this long again without some us time? I think we can talk my mom into babysitting this morning. Now that, you know, she reviews in a routine. Maybe some sleepover action as well? It’s something we can work on, alright?

Let’s All right, yeah.

You found the coffee, I see. Yeah, I did. And I am just so glad to have a moment alone with you. Can I have a hug, Dad? Oh, of course, of course. Oh, honey, honey, I’m so happy to have you home.

Yeah, me too. I’m just I’m really worried about her. Oh, sweetheart. We all are. But she’s so strong. Yeah. And we’re trying to be positive. Optimistic. Right. Yeah, um. How are you doing, Dad? I assume you want to know if I remember my past. I still don’t. But there is one thing. One thing that I do know. I’m so lucky to be your father.

Best father anyone could ask for. It means so much to me. And speaking of fathers. Where is the father of my twin grandbabies, huh? He’s with mom. He wanted to show her pictures of the babies. Oh, she’ll be loving that. So are you going to plan on staying here in Salem for a while? That’s the plan right now.

But Eli is being considered for a new job in D. C. It would be a really great opportunity. We both have mixed feelings about not being here in Salem.

Anyways, right now, I just, I want to focus on mom, and I want to focus on being here for you and Chanel. I appreciate that. I need another hug. Definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely. Oh, honey. Your mother. Your mother is going to make it. She has to. Yeah. This is the

best news ever. Oh my. Would, would tomorrow be too soon, or can I come by? No, sure I can be there. No, I will be there. Yeah, I’m, I’m so happy for you. Alright, I’ll see you then. I’m, I’m so sorry. That wasn’t cool. And? She and Holly, they’re back. And Holly’s awake. Wow. That’s great news. No, it is a miracle. So this is it, huh?

This is how it ends.

Neat. Clean. Easy.

And then curtains down for hers, Michaels.

You know, Tripp is the most important person in my life. I’m so proud of the man that he’s become. He’s a good person. You know, he gets that from his dad.

He gets a lot from you too, Ava. Yeah, what? My sparkling personality? I’m pretty sure he gets some of his strength from you. Yeah, well I wish I felt strong right now. Listen, Ava, we’re going to find our son. Come hell or high water, we’re going to find him and Wendy and bring him home.

I’m trying super hard to be positive. And our trip to Paris definitely helped, but we’re still stuck in this godforsaken tank. Are we ever going to get out of here? I mean, what happened? Shh. No, no, there’s no what ifs. There’s no what ifs, okay? We are going to be found and rescued. Okay, I know that. I know that.

Hey, we just, we have to wait. We have to, we have to be patient. Hey, I, I, I, I love you. Wait. I can’t, I can’t wait to take you to Paris for real, okay? I damn well will. You promise? I promise. Je promets. Très bien, mon amour.

This, this is the ice cream incident that I was telling you about. I had no idea how powerful Rocky Roe was until this moment. Even Messy as can be, so beautiful, so beautiful. I see you’re showing off the babies. Yes, I am. Oh, and it’s too bad you only have about 50 million photos of them. Oh, more than that.

And I’m sure Julie will have taken even more and will have a full report for us of all their shenanigans. Mama, are you okay? I’m just happy to see Lonnie. Oh, uh, Disa. These are, I treasure these moments. They mean, they’re so precious. Mama, we are going to have a whole lot of time together. All of us. Yeah, we definitely will.

I mean, I’m personally looking forward to Alani coming home. And God will answer more of our prayers with your, your kind and generous heart.

That’s right. This family, we need you, Mama. We need you to stick around for a long, long time. You got that?

Got it. Oh, I love you my darlings. I love you so much.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I’m sorry, ma’am. Ma’am? Oh, yeah. Kristen, hi. Yeah, it’s Kristen. I did not know that was you. I’m sorry. Oh, well, now that you do, maybe you could call me Miss. Yes, absolutely. Uh, my head was someplace else. Anyway, I was going to run into you. Yeah, literally. Uh, so tell me, uh, what’s got you so hyper focused? Uh, it’s nothing.

Yeah, let me guess. Does it have to do with one genie, Teresa Donovan? No kidding, is that really her name? Oh my god, you guys are that close, huh? I mean, we were until recently. She just moved out, back with Brady. Excuse me? Yeah, she moved back out of the townhouse. With Brady. A little cream and two sugars, right?

Thank you. Yes. Thank you for letting me shack up here, again. Well, uh Tate’s room is just sitting there empty anyway. You know what makes me feel close to him? Just being in his room. Especially after that nightmare visit. You know, they say that every teenage boy at one point in time just tells his parents that he hates them.

You know, that’s what I keep telling myself anyway. Do you think it was just a rant? Like Pent up frustrations. I think he’s got a reason to be frustrated, right? Yeah, but not to take it out on us. As someone who was once a teenage boy, I know that you have all these feelings that you just don’t know how to deal with and sometimes they just fly out at the worst possible time.

Funny guess, is that Alex again? Oh, God. He will not leave me alone. Just give it a rest, Alex. Oh my God, it’s Tay. Hmm? Hi, honey. Are

you alright, darling? Would you like some water? It wasn’t me, I thought it was you. Mom.

Like

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

Tate, are you there? Yeah, I’m here. Okay, okay, your dad is here with me too. I’m gonna put you on speaker, okay? No, Mom, don’t. Hey, buddy, how you doing? We certainly hope that you’re calling to apologize for what you said to us. I’m not calling about that. Is there a problem? Mom, I wanted to let you know that, uh, Justin called me this morning.

He let me know that a spot opened up at one of the halfway houses in Salem. That’s fantastic! Yeah, he, uh, he said that I could transfer there if I want, since I’ve done a good job here. Um, Justin said that I needed to let you know. Buddy, that is great news. Yeah, we, we cannot wait to see you. So when is the, uh, transfer happening?

That’s the thing. I don’t want to go. Oh my

gosh, she’s awake. Hi. Sweetheart. Hi. Mommy’s here. I’m right here, baby. Hi. Hi. You’re awake. Hello, Holly dear. We’re so happy to talk to you. I’m gonna go call Sarah, okay? Yeah.

What time is it? What time? It’s, it’s 7. 30.

Did the party end?

Okay, let me get this straight. So you bought a huge rock, which Teresa found, but you didn’t propose to her? I was thinking about it, but I changed my mind. Oh my god, you are evolution in reverse. No, no, no, whoa, it’s actually the opposite. See, I gave this a whole lot of thought, because I didn’t know if this was a smart move or not.

Until I had this feeling wash over me, and I thought this could possibly be the biggest mistake of my life. Even though At times I do think I love Teresa.

At times you think. Oh honey, that is so romantic. And so what popped into your head? I went to a meeting. Oh. For people whose loved ones are addicts, and I sat there listening to them share their stories about what it was like to be in a relationship with somebody like Teresa. I was also thinking about Tate.

And, uh, that’s too much of a problem for your little brain to handle? No, this is not a small thing, Kristen. Like, this girl has a lot of things going on, a lot to work on. And I want to be supportive to that. But I also know that if I’m in the picture, it could pose a problem for her. She needs to just focus on herself, and I don’t want to mess things up.

Okay, Alex, I mean, she fell off the wagon. One time, and apparently she got right back up again. So don’t you think you’re overreacting just a touch? Charissa, no, I don’t. It hasn’t been sober for six months. And another thing that they said was that a recovering addict should take at least that amount of time before making any big decisions.

Ah. So now you’re an expert on, uh, addiction, right? Okay, you know what, I think you just got cold feet. Okay, did you not listen to a word she said? Alex, Alex, I did, I heard everything you just said. Okay. Okay, but you could have settled on a long engagement instead of pushing that woman right into Brady’s arms.

I didn’t push her into anybody’s arms, she decided to leave. Okay, yeah, because you broke her heart. And now she’s with Brady, my Brady. Oh, so you’re Brady? Yes! Okay, Brady hasn’t been yours for a very long time, ma’am. So if you actually think you stand a chance of getting back with him, It’s delusional.

Hey there. Chad! I’m running. Hi. Is this seat taken? It is not. Yeah? Come join me. Thank you. Oh, man, this place gets busier and busier every day. Which is, uh, which is great for my, my new niece in law, I suppose, huh? That’s right! I heard about Johnny and Chanel. It’s very exciting. I’m happy for them. Yes, yes.

Hopefully it works out better than the last time. It will. Come on. I believe in second chances. And, and thirds. Oh. Are, are you a hopeless romantic? I am a hopeful romantic. Always hopeful. Uh, I just dropped the kids off at school, and they were raving about their playdate with Victoria. That’s so sweet.

Although I don’t know how much she plays right now. What do you mean? Are you kidding me? The kids were cracking up at her little giggle fits, which is just, you know, they really need that right now, so. And I’m very glad that my mom is babysitting so much, so they can all hang out. How are you holding up?

You know, it’s, uh, it’s tough. I, uh, worry a lot about Thomas and Charlotte. And, and Doug and Julie, of course. You know, losing the home that they love is just All that history. It’s gotta be, gotta be really tough. And tough for you, too. Yeah. Well, I mean, God bless your mother. She’s a saint, taking us all in without even batting an eye.

She is that, but That’s what families do. She’s always said that. And we are all here for you. Thank you. What about you? What’s um, I mean, the thing with Xander must have shaken you up a bit. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I’m hanging in there. Did he, did he say what happened? He went for a run. That’s it. Everything else after that is a mistake and a framed job.

He didn’t shoot that detective. You sure? I am absolutely sure. Look, Xander has screwed up royally in the past. He was on a dark path, but he is right at himself. He’s seen the light. Well, you know what? I have a feeling that that light is you. I’m pretty sure it’s Victoria. Anyway, now we just need to get your brother to see the light and get it through his thick skull.

Bet Xander is innocent. Yeah.

Weird. Speak of the devil. EJ? Sarah, you won’t believe it. Holly woke up. What? Oh my god, that’s fantastic! What’s fantastic? I can’t tell you because it’s doctor patient confidentiality, but I am sure your brother will be calling you.

Honey, the party ended a long time ago. But now you’re home, safe and sound. Mom? Yeah? Why are you crying? Well, cause honey, I’m just so happy to see you. What is this? Oh, that’s a um, That’s a Japanese healing bowl. EJ got it as a gift on va Isn’t it beautiful? Honey, you were hurt. And you were in the hospital, but you’re home now.

You’re okay. You’re much better. Did it end? Did the party end? Oh, Sarah’s on her way.

Hello, love. It’s so good to see those beautiful eyes of yours again.

It’s okay, honey. You, you don’t have to talk. It’s okay. Everything’s gonna be okay. I’m sorry. I’ll get you some water. She still thinks it’s New Year’s Eve.

She has no idea what happened.

Hello? You guys heard me, right? We heard you, we just don’t understand. Tate, why would you not want to be transferred to Salem? You’d be so close by. That’s it. That’s the reason. I don’t want to be close by. You guys act like I should be grateful that I’m in here. Like this is a good thing. Like I’m guilty.

But I’m not. Neither of you believes in me enough to fight for me. That’s, that’s not true, buddy. We, we do believe in you and we, we are fighting for you. Then get me out of here. We’re working on it. Tate, let us prove to you that we believe in you, okay? We want that chance. I’ll think about it.

You should not have told him about my letter. Excuse me? This is my fault?

Hey, yeah, thanks for coming in early, Leo. Yeah, no, I’ll be there soon. Uh, no, I don’t imagine Everett’s gonna be coming in today. Yeah, hey, the um, the, uh, the article on the, uh, the Horton House piece is, yeah, great work. Yeah, okay, yeah, keep me posted. Thanks.

Uh, I am not delusional, Alex. No, I’m not. And if I want Brady back, I can damn well get him back. I can make it happen. Really? Yes, I can. Why haven’t you? Well, maybe you’ve heard, uh, we’ve been in a brutal battle for custody and my daughter is my priority. Yeah. I like the way you try Kristen. Really? Oh my god.

What conversation? Exactly! I’m sorry, I’m just really struggling with all this. Well, no, of course you’re struggling, it’s mind blowing. Hey, look, you can tell me that’s none of my business if you want. Um, but do you believe this guy? I don’t know what to believe. Uh, Everett and I saw Jada the other day and, um, wasn’t pretty.

I mean, there’s some real bad blood between the two of them. Except she doesn’t remember any of it. Or so he says. Yeah, that’s what he said. No memories of her, nothing of the marriage. But she had She’s got dozens of photos of them on her phone. They were married. While he and I were dating. While we were in love, supposedly.

Look, I, I mean, I gave him a chance. You know, but, uh, but I always thought something was, uh, was a little bit off with that one. I wish I had sensed that too. And now for all I know, he’s a pathological liar. Oh my god, this whole, this whole thing is such a mess.

Like her mother.

Perfect! Tired. Yeah. Okay, you get some rest, alright sweetheart? Okay. Okay. Um, so Her pupils are reflexive and responsive, and she’s following simple commands, which is all very great news. Um, I, I would like to get her to the hospital to do some comprehensive tests. Just, you know, an EEG, some blood work, pain assessment.

Now? No, no, no, no. Um, let’s let her get acclimated first. Well, whatever she needs, she’ll have it. Okay, um, for right now, that’s just gonna be ice chips and then, uh, water. And we can slowly work her up to liquids like broth, just nothing too hot. And then we can get to Planned foods. I’ll send a whole list.

Don’t worry. And okay, and then I would like to schedule for some tests Anything else we should do? Just let her go at her own pace and I’m gonna update her chart Okay, um, I’ll go get the ice chips

Thank you for coming. I know I’m not your favorite person right now. I’m here for Holly, not for you. I understand. You know that Sander shouldn’t be in jail right now. He didn’t shoot Detective Michaels. And he should be out on bail until we can prove it. Well, we’re going to have to agree to disagree on that one.

Unfortunately, Frisanda, the facts are not on his side.

You shouldn’t be here, Alex. You won’t answer any of my calls or texts. We are, and you know the reason for that. Well, we need to talk, Theresa. We need to have an adult conversation, huh? Oh, are you calling me childish now? I’m saying that you never gave me a chance to explain. You put up a wall and took off.

Oh. Maybe we should leave them to them. Why don’t we grab a coffee? No, we’re not grabbing coffee. Alex, she Look, she doesn’t owe you any explanations. And honestly, what Teresa and I need is for both of you to kindly go.

Oh my God, I didn’t know it was this bad. Yeah. Pretty tough to see, huh? Wow. The last time I was here was Christmas Eve. Such a special night. Beautiful tree, the family all around, singing, opening gifts. Yeah, I remember, um, I remember when, uh, when Abby brought me here and I got my Christmas ornament. And we stood right there, and then home, and Abby was wearing this red sweater and she just looked so beautiful.

It was, I’m sorry, that was insensitive. Yeah, I stick my foot in my mouth sometimes. No, no, no, not insensitive. Abby was my cousin. I loved her very much. You and I are friends now. Yeah. Oh, I forgot to, um, I forgot to tell you. The Christmas ornaments were saved. Really? Yes, they were just downstairs in the basement.

Uh, not a scratch on them. Ah, my God. Maggie and Julie must have been Thrilled, Doug, too. Yeah, they were, it’s just, they were beside themselves. They were, they were so happy. Wow. How are Thomas and Charlotte doing? They’re, um, they’re having a bit of a hard time. Charlotte keeps waking up at night terrified of a fire, but I had to give her a tour of the Karyakis Mansion, show her where all the smoke detectors were.

Oh. And, uh, and teach Thomas and Charlotte to call 9 1 1 in case of a another fire, so. Well, they’ve really had to grow up these past couple of years. Yeah, they sure did. I hope they understand why I’m not around anymore. Yeah, no, of course they do. I mean, the talk at Christmas helped. You know, with the fire, they, um, they want somebody to stay with them until they fall asleep.

So, we switch. Me, Doug, and Julie. Take turns. Your kids. They’re the sweetest. Yeah, they are. I might be biased. A little bit.

Okay. Well, uh, I should probably take some pictures. Yeah, yeah. Oh.

Um, EJ left? Uh, yeah. It was It was a little awkward given the circumstances. Got it. Sarah, I’m so sorry. No, it’s just, uh, It’s hard to reconcile EJ, the very doting and loving stepfather, with EJ, the intractable DA that refuses to consider that Xander might have been framed. Well, the truth will come out, Sarah.

Yeah, it better. So I know from the bottom of my soul that Xander is innocent.

Oh, she’s starting to wake up again. Oh, okay. Let’s give her some ice chips when she’s ready. Okay. Alright. Yeah.

Um, so, is this gonna keep happening, Sarah? Her waking up for a little bit and then going right back to sleep? Well, um, you know, like I said, it’s gonna be At her pace, but truthfully, Nicole, the fact that she regained consciousness at all is just It bodes extremely well for her to make a full recovery. I hope so.

I mean, I know this is going to take a while, but I just The fact that she opened her eyes and looked at me, that’s a miracle. I know, I know. Oh, Mom. She’s She’s probably going to need some physical therapy from being in a coma for so long, but the one thing I do know for certain Is that she is going to be surrounded with love and attention and that is going to be so so helpful for her recovery Yeah, I agree.

This is definitely a full house I call it a mixed bag of nuts and it’s only gonna get nuttier when Tony and Anna come home from Europe. Oh my god. I love Anna so much. She’s so hysterical. She’s got a heart of gold And it takes a heck of a woman to be with a DiMera man and oh and A karyakis, you know, they often live in the gray area.

That is, that is very well put. Yeah. And Sarah, since, since we have that in common, you and I, if you ever need to talk about anything, I’m here. Thank you, Nicole. I may take you up on that.

Well, some rooms aren’t so bad. Yeah, and some rooms are pretty ravaged. Even still, I have no doubt that this house will rise from the ashes. Absolutely. There’s no way this family is going to let the Horror Legacy die. So I have to, I have to take this. It’s my brother. Yeah, sure. Hey. Yeah, you got my message.

Yes, I’m sorry, Chad. I couldn’t pick up when you called. Things have been rather busy here. Holly’s awake. What? Oh, my God, that’s incredible. Holly’s awake. We’re thrilled. She’s weak and a little confused, but she opened her eyes and talked to us. Sarah’s in there now, examining her. Yeah, I was with Sarah when you called.

I got the sense that there was some good news. The best. Nicole’s over the moon, obviously. Oh, of course. I’m so happy. Tell Nicole how happy I am for her. It’s amazing. I will. And how are you and Thomas and Sharma? We’re hanging in. Well, I’ve, uh, been staying on top of, uh, the case and the police haven’t nailed anything down yet about the arsonist.

No, nothing about the arsonist or the phone call, you know, as far as they tell me. I’ll keep on them, Chad. Thank you. And, um, and give, give Holly a hug for me. I will.

That is so great about Holly. That’s amazing, and we, we really needed some good news. That’s for sure. And if you don’t mind my asking, what did you mean about the phone call? Um, so, uh, when we, uh, when we got out of the house, uh, and we got across the street and watched the house burn down, I got a, I got a call.

The voice was distorted and they said, maybe next time you’ll listen. Oh my god. Yeah, I mean, it’s gotta be because the, uh, the article that we published about the opioid crisis. The, the drug raids. Pointing the finger at Clyde Weston. Yeah, I have no doubt that it’s Weston. Believing it and proving it are two very different things.

Brady, please stay out of this. She has to talk to me sometime. No, she really doesn’t. Wait, do you speak for Teresa now, too? No, he’s not speaking for Teresa. I am speaking for Teresa. And I have a lot of important things on my mind right now, and they don’t include you. I’m sorry. So just, you need to go. Look, that drama has nothing to do with me.

I came here to speak to you about Rachel. We’re not gonna speak about Rachel right now. Listen, I thank you for the valentine, I really do, but I need you to go. Hush! Hush! Hush! It’s Tate! It’s Tate! Tate! Shh! Everyone! Hi, Tate! Did you decide? Chad, you have to

believe that they’re gonna connect the dots. To prove that Clyde Weston gave the order to set fire to this house. Well, yes, you can count on, uh, on that. I have another surprise for you. I told you about the Christmas ornaments being pristine and in one piece and all, but I saved, saved something good for last.

What? Tom

and Alice’s chair. Wow. Yeah, no, uh, no fire damage, no water damage. No, nothing. It’s perfect. Wait, that’s amazing. How? I don’t know. It was just sitting here in the middle of the blaze. That’s freaky. Yeah. Like, in a good way. Yeah. Have, have you sat in it? Sat in it? Are you kidding me? I thought we would, you know, and all this stuff.

No, I’d be the first person in history to get a stain on this thing. No way. Yeah, I’m scared to even touch it. Yeah, do it. Be brave. Oh, you’re doing it. Oh, my God. Oh, no. It’s like touching royalty. I know. Actually, um, she said she’s gonna rebuild all around it. Yeah, restore everything to its original glory.

For generations of importance to come. Like your grandchildren and great grandchildren. Yeah, I hope so. Are you still with dad? Yes, I am, but I won’t put you on speaker this time. No, it’s okay. Are you sure? Yeah. Yeah, I guess. Okay. Okay, we’re both here now. So I’ve been thinking about the whole transferring to Salem thing.

And I called Justin again after we talked, and Well, he thought it was kind of lame, my whole not going there, so I think I’m gonna make the move to Salem. Buddy, that’s, that’s great news. This sounds like you have put a lot of thought into this, and we think this is a really wise decision. So, uh, when is this happening?

And then, by the way, we’re gonna, we’re gonna be with you every step of the way. Thanks. Well, I, um, I gotta go. Love you! Hey, buddy, I love you too! Um, I’ll see you soon.

He’s coming! Our son! Our son’s coming home! He’s coming back! Oh, my God. Ah. I can’t thank you enough, Sarah. I’m very, very happy to help my niece. And my mom is going to be so excited when she hears that Holly woke up. Is it all right if I tell her? Yes, of course. And then we’ll set up a time for Maggie to come by.

Great. Great. And, uh, I will set up an appointment for her in her online medical account. You can look at her records there. And, I’m here. 24 7. Whatever you need, you just call me and I will be here. Oh, thank you, Sarah. Oh my goodness, this is, this is one of the happiest days of my life. Yeah, I’m just, I’m so thrilled for you, Nicole.

I really am. And for Holly, of course. All right, I’m gonna see myself out. Okay. Okay. Thank you. All right. Enjoy your girl. I will.

Make sure you’re nice and warm.

Everything all right? Yes. It couldn’t be better. Oh, EJ. You know, I have, I have so many people that I need to call, but I just want to save her this moment. My little girl came back and everything is right in the world. She came back. Yeah. Okay.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Xander, how are you holding up? About how you’d expect. At least they let me out myself to talk to you about it. How’s everyone doing since the fire? Well, uh, Chad and the kids and Doug and Julie are settling in with my mom. They all went to the Horton house this morning to assess the damage from the fire.

Thank God none of them was hurt. Or worse. Zander, I wish we could get you out of here, but after they found the gun at your apartment. And I, I’m, I’m so sorry. I, I should have stayed while the police searched the apartment, but Victoria was crying. She woke up from all the commotions. I just, I took her to mom’s.

There’s nothing you could have done differently, Sarah, that would have helped. Someone would have found a way to plant that gun, whether you’d been there or not. I am being set up, Justin. You do believe that, right? I not only believe it, but I’m going to prove it. And hopefully, Michaels will explain everything once he wakes up.

If he wakes up. And if he does, it might be a while. Time is not on our side, obviously. Planting that gun, that’s, that’s just the beginning. Whoever’s out there setting me up They’re planning the next move as we speak. Rafe? Hey. Rafe, I’m being framed. You have to believe me. I mean, I didn’t shoot Harris Michaels.

I barely know the guy. I have no connection to him. Right. Yeah. But I am sure that you do have a connection to the $50,000 that was placed in your checking account this morning from an untraceable offshore account.

What

now? Quite, oh, I think you know what now, Stephen, but. Why don’t you come on out here and pay me a visit, so I can clarify? I don’t think that’s such a good idea. Last time I was there I got in trouble with the cops. It’s not a request, my friend. It’s an order. Oh God. Oh God,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris. Harris. Oh, no, no, no, no. Stace, Stace, Stace, Stace, Stace, Stace.

Hey. Hey. No loitering. Well, I wouldn’t have to loiter if you just let me in there. You know the rules. Family only. But I am the closest thing to family that he’s got. For the last time, lady, I’m asking you to leave before I have you removed from the premises.

You haven’t found anyone who remembers seeing Trip or Wendy? No. Not at the, uh, caching Cupid event, no. And I have hit every single shop and restaurant here at Horton Square, showing people photos, and so far, nothing. Yeah, I’ve been racking my brain, punching in every possible lead that I can think of in the database, searching for clues.

I’ve been all over the surveillance footage from around town where the event took place. Okay, well you just stay on top of that. And I have a list of all the people that signed up for the event. So I am gonna be busy. Checking in with those folks here. And it’ll be a little while till I’m back at the office.

So hang in there, Steve. We’re gonna find your boy. And Wendy, too. You can count on it. Thanks, man. Keep me posted.

Come in. Hello, Mr. Johnson. Is this a bad time?

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

What do you want, Meliones? Oh, you seem to be in a foul mood, Mr. Johnson. I assume it’s because your son is missing? How did you know that? Well, I just came from the hospital where I was having my uncle examined, and I overheard one nurse talking to the other that the good doctor did not show up for his shift today.

What does that have to do with you? So I repeat my initial question, what do you want? I just wanted to give you my, my take on it, if you will. Your take? Yes, on your missing son. It struck me that it would be, um What is the expression? Karmic justice, if something did happen to your boy. For as you well know, my daughter was killed by the pawn and you, well you just stood there watching.

Which makes you equally responsible for her death. Please officer, I’m, I’m, I’m having a really hard day here. You see my son, Tripp, he’s um, He’s a doctor here at this hospital and he’s gone missing. And, uh, actually it was Tripp who, who was the one who helped Harris Michaels, um, that night on the loading dock.

So if it wasn’t for him, and for me finding him in the first place, you know, he, he may not even be with us right now. So I know, I know that It would do him well to know that I was here. So maybe, maybe you could just, you know, bend the rules just a little bit? No can do. Okay. Fine. Fine. You know what? What’s your name?

Godfrey. That’s right. Um, Officer Godfrey. You know what I’m gonna call? I am gonna call Commissioner Ray Fernandez. You know, yeah, that’s right, your boss. Mm hmm. And, um, we’re very close, so I’m sure that he will tell you to stop being such a tight ass. I’ll save you some time, Miss Vitale. The commissioner’s the one who ordered me otherwise.

Said I shouldn’t let you in to see Michael’s. Under any circumstances.

50, 000! I have no idea how, when, or why that was transferred to my account. The why is obvious, and further proof that Xander is being framed, right? Exactly! If I was doing something nefarious, I wouldn’t broadcast it to the world by having a huge sum of money deposited to my personal checking account.

What about the text sent to your phone? Is it done? Or the very incriminating fact that the gun used to shoot Harris was found in your apartment? I’ve told you, I don’t know how that got there. Which he has already explained, so if you have no other evidence Actually, I do. An eyewitness to the crime.

As usual, my Leonis, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Oh, don’t play me for a fool, Mr. Johnson. You were the pawn’s handler. And my old friend Victor sent you two to Greece. Aria, to be specific. To send me a message, to see things his way, huh? Only, the pawn took that message one step too far. And killed my Katarina in cold blood.

Look, I don’t know what game you’re trying to play here, man. But you got it all wrong. First of all, I didn’t even know you had a daughter. And even if I did, and what you’re saying wasn’t complete nonsense What proof do you have? Did you actually see this pawn kill your daughter?

We have a witness who saw you running near the bistro the night of the shooting. He said it looked like you were in a hurry. Of course I wa Doesn’t everyone who was running look like they’re in a hurry? I mean, I was just, it was cold. I was trying to keep my heart rate up. I went in for some exercising to clear my head.

You believe me, don’t you, Sarah? Yeah, of course I do. Well, you might have second thoughts when you see this.

What? No, that, that can’t be. It’s not. That’s not me. I mean, sure, that man is dressed in similar running clothes, but I bet thousands of people have that running gear. Rafe, you can’t even see his face. There’s no way in hell you can identify the shooter as Xander based on that photo.

Um, how’s he doing, please? Um, can you tell me if there’s been any improvement in his condition? I’m sorry, but unless your family Please, I mean, I’m Nurse, um, Michelle. Look, Harris doesn’t have Any family. I’m Ali Scott. And I know that, If I was in there, I know that it could help his recovery. You know, doctors say that comatose patients, they respond to their loved ones voices.

Sorry. I really wish I could help.

Thanks for stopping by, Stephen. Yeah. You’d be lucky if I get out of here. Listen, why are we meeting out here as opposed to inside the visitor’s room? Cause I need a little fresh air, and you need some anonymity. If you’re worried about getting shot, don’t be. Ain’t gonna happen unless I order it. The fellas up in the towers there, they, uh, happen to be preoccupied at the moment.

What about him? Huh? You on your payroll too? No, he’s just here to keep a watch over the yard, make sure we don’t have any unwelcome visitors. Alright, well, here I am. A welcome visitor. So why don’t we make this brief? Why don’t you tell me what the hell you want from me? Well, what I want is to see you face to face.

To tell you how disappointed I am in you. You had an order to shoot and kill. Yet, somehow Harris Michaels is still alive. Now, I think it’s because you didn’t really want that son of a bitch to die. Right? So, Stephanie, if you disobeyed an order, there will be consequences.

Look, I did exactly what I was ordered to do. Yeah? What do you want a gold star? For what? Dressing up as Xander Kiriakis? Sending Michaels that bogus text from Ava? That’s child’s play, man! Any third grader could have done that!

Ava! Where are you?

You. What are you

Get off.

Twice. How the hell was I supposed to know that Ava was gonna show up and call her son to help save him? Well, next time, you shoot him three times. Or you aim for his head, or you kick his ass in the river afterwards if you have to. Next time. There’s not gonna be a next time. I got news for you. There’s no sign that Michaels is gonna wake up or even pull through.

I did exactly what you asked me to do, and I did it for Gabby.

Please tell me she’s still okay.

Your wife is still breathing. For now.

I can tell you most emphatically that the man in that picture is not me. Obviously somebody dressed up like me to commit the crime and then planted the gun in our apartment. I’m being framed, can’t you see that? Rafe, come on. You know damn well when this much evidence falls into place so easily, there has to be other forces at play.

Okay. Okay. Alright, okay. So, so let’s say that we’re, we’re gonna go with that theory. The, uh, other forces at play theory? Tell me, Xander, who would want to frame you and why? I wish I knew. I mean, no one comes to mind offhand. Except maybe Except maybe Possibly one of the DiMeras. I mean, we all know there’s no love lost between the DiMeras and the Kyriakises.

And, Rafe, you should know that I Recently received a mysterious phone call. An altered voice instructed me to eliminate something. Now, I, I thought it was E. J. or one of the DiMeras messing with me, so I went over to the mansion to confront E. J. about it. And? E. J. wasn’t there, so I ended up talking to Stefan.

Okay. Alright, so let me get this straight. You received a phone call soliciting you for a murder for hire, and instead of going to the police, you went to the DiMeras. What were you thinking?

I wasn’t.

I admit I did not actually witness the pawn shoot my daughter. For I was unconscious during the attack, but when I woke up, I saw my Katerina lying there on the floor, dead. So, if you were unconscious when your daughter was killed, how can you be sure the pawn was a shooter? There were only three people in the room with me when I was attacked.

You, me, and the pawn, who you know is John Black, huh? I have no doubt that Mr. Black was there in Aria that very day. And though I did not see his face, I will never forget those eyes, those murdering eyes. Eyes are the gateway to the soul, Mr. Steve Johnson. And when I look into your one eye, I can read you like a book.

And so I know, that you know, that every word I have shared with you today is true.

Now you listen to me, dude. Whatever happened to your daughter all those years ago Had nothing to do with me or John. I will say this, and I hope for the last time. I know in my heart, si cardiamo, that John Black, a. k. a. The Pawn, killed my daughter in cold blood, and you were an accessory to that crime. Well, then your heart is telling you lies.

No, it is not! I swore on my Katarina’s sword that I would avenge her death. And I will not rest until I make good on that promise. So what the hell is going on in here?

I’m going to give you two some time to be alone. I need to get back to the office. But you can Get me out of here on bail now, right, Justin? Now that Rafe agrees I’ve been set up. Rafe agreed to consider that you might have been set up. Look, Xander, with all the evidence pointing at you, I am not going to give up fighting for you, but I’m afraid we may have a tough road ahead of us.

Thanks, Justin.

Look, I know that he doesn’t want to get your hopes up, but every bit of evidence points to a setup, and Rafe sees that now, too. Yeah, well, if Rafe’s just playing us What do you mean? Well, he might just be pretending to be an ally, to get me to say something incriminating that he can use against us. No, he’s not doing that.

Well, whatever he’s doing, and whoever’s out there trying to make me look like a murderer, I God, Sarah, I just, I finally turned my life around with you and our, our precious Victoria. I, and I was so proud of the work I was doing at The Spectator, and even more proud, I’d gained your trust. But you haven’t lost.

I’m so proud. Very grateful for that. But, I don’t know, it’s just Being implicated in this terrible crime is It’s just making me doubt myself all over again. Why? Why doubt yourself? You know that you’re innocent. Sarah, you know all too well. Trouble follows me wherever I go. It doesn’t matter how hard I try to walk the straight and narrow and be a good person.

Stand up citizen, always makes some bad choice along the way, or someone I hurt along the way decides to punish me, and that’s obviously what’s happening there.

I wouldn’t blame you, Sarah, if you just wanted to get away from all this. Sam! No, Sarah, let me finish.

I love you, darling. You and Victoria, you’re, you’re everything to me. But I want you to be happy. I don’t want you to be burdened by the fallout from all the bad choices I’ve made. So, If you decide, That you just want to take Victoria and start a new life without me, I will understand.

You don’t, Godfrey. Just take a break. I’ll relieve you of your duties for a while. Harrison, you’ve

been on the force for about what, four months now? Already in here fighting for your life? Listen man,

I knew from the minute that I heard you, that you were tough. That you were a tough SOB. Not just because you were a Navy SEAL, man. It’s because that’s who you are. You don’t quit, you don’t give up, you’re a fighter. So don’t you go. But you’re not giving up on me now, right man?

You’re gonna get out of here. You’re gonna get out of here and then When you heal up, we’re gonna find the bastard that did this to you and we’re gonna take him down. Shouldn’t be here, right?

Why not? Rafe, why are you so hell bent on keeping me from seeing Harris? It’s for your good and for his. Okay. I will try and accept that. Okay. Look, I just, Rafe, I’m really, I’m really sorry. Sorry about what? About, about this. This whole mess. I mean, I You know, if I hadn’t gotten involved with Clyde and his drug operation, none of this would have happened.

That’s not your fault. I know you and Harris were just trying to bring Clyde down. Yeah, a whole lot of good that did us. Yeah. Please, please let me, let me just see him. I mean, if something happens and I don’t get to say goodbye,

You know what I’m gonna do? I’m, I’m gonna, I’m gonna go on social media and I’m gonna say all kinds of mean hurtful things about you. Oh, are you? Mm-Hmm. . Yeah. I’m gonna say that, that Ray Hernandez is, is just terrible and he’s has no heart. Oh, come on. You wouldn’t want me to do that. Mm, well, I probably wouldn’t care.

No, I’m not even on social media anyway. No. So, yeah, and despite what some people think. I actually do have a heart. Yeah, you do. Yeah. Alright, so go on. Go in there and see him. Really? Yeah, before I change my mind. Thank you.

Please, Clyde. Don’t hurt Gabby. She’s suffered enough. You just followed my orders. Gabby will be in perfect health. What about Tripp Johnson, huh? Apparently he’s missing. I assume you had something to do with that. Well, if I did, it was only for insurance purposes. Insurance, huh? Hey, you know better than me, Ava’s gone soft.

She’s weak. Thanks to that do gooder Michael. So, if her boy Tripp has gone missing It’s all on her.

Does Eva know what you need from her? Well, if she doesn’t, she soon will.

A hell of a nerve showing up here after everything you pulled. He was just about to leave. Oh, Mr. Brock. Are you not curious as to what we were discussing before you arrived? I think I can guess. You’re here to taunt us about how you were messing with my head during our last encounter, am I close? Actually, I was talking to Mr.

Johnson about my daughter. I’m certain you may remember her. Mr. Black, my Katarina. Never heard of her. And as far as I know, I’ve never laid eyes on you until you showed up here in Salem. So I certainly don’t know anything about your daughter. Well, you will remember everything about her all in good time. I do hope your son turns up, Mr.

Johnson. Yes, I hate to think what a person like you would resort to if anyone were to harm or, dare I say, even kill your precious child. What? I assume you would, uh, seek revenge, would you not, huh? Don’t you ever. I threatened my son, do you hear me? Get out! Get out!

Okay, Amy Ava has, you know, softened. Like you said. It’s because she cares for Harris. She’s human, she has a heart. She’s also smart. And Savvy, that’s why she has been loyal to you down the line. Would she hire you to do public relations for her, sir? I am simply trying to point out that she has not blown out of the water yet.

I mean, yes, she is upset about her son, but other than that Hey, man, if you’re so concerned about Ava Vitale, get your ass back to Salem, keep an eye on her, make sure she keeps her mouth shut and stays loyal, all right? Okay. I will. One more thing, Stephen. If somehow, Detective Michaels recovers from his wounds and regains consciousness, you better make damn sure that he loses it again.

Permanently, this time.

Hey,

Harris, I am here,

and I hope you can hear me. Oh, you know I’ve been thinking about when we first met, and how you had my back, and you believed in me right from the get go. Back when we were in Bayview.

You know, you saved me. So many times.

Mostly you saved me from myself.

And how did I repay you?

I pushed you away.

God, I didn’t want to.

But you know me.

I am my own worst enemy. Harris,

you have loved me. Like no one has ever loved me.

And I love you for that.

God, it’s so many other reasons. I can’t lose you. I can’t lose you. Oh

my God, Harris.

I don’t get it, partner. What was that? Bastard’s motive for showing up here. I don’t know, John. He was just spinning some yarn about the past. He’s trying to take our attention off the fact that he’s conning Maggie. But I don’t have another minute to waste on that creep. My son is missing. Right, right, right, right, triple in here.

I’m sorry. That, um, that brings me to what I found when I was walking around the square. Any leads? The gal that was working the Sweet Bits counter, she remembered Wendy coming through there early afternoon, shortly after the geocaching event started. Wendy was chatting her up about these clues that she was following.

Anything else? Did anyone see Tripp? Actually, yes. Eric and Sloan briefly ran into Tripp and Wendy when they were coming home from dinner from the Horton Square. But apparently, Eric and Sloan were in such a hurry, they You never got around to asking them where they headed to. I’m sorry, buddy.

I will get my revenge against you, Steve Johnson. But before I do,

I must deal with you, John. My pawn. I will take great pleasure in playing you like a fiddle until all your strings are broken. Then, and only then, John Black, until all my tasks are finally completed, will you finally pay the ultimate price for what you have taken away from me?

Xander, there was a time that I would have believed that you were guilty. But, the Xander that I know And love today wouldn’t risk throwing away his life with his daughter. Nor with you. Nor that. So no, I will not run away from you, Xander. Because despite everything that we have been through, or maybe because of everything that we have been through, I do believe you now, and I trust you.

And I am With you, through this entire thing, no matter what.

God, I’m so sorry I went on that stupid run. I should have stayed home with you. Well, you did come back, and We did make up for some lost time. That was one of the best nights of my life. Until it turned into one of the worst.

We are going to find a Um, no, but, um, but there’s some other good news. Yeah. What’s that? Harris opened his eyes. Rafe’s in there right now.

Hey Harris. It’s Rafe.

Come on, man. Well, let us know that you’re here. Hey, if you can hear me, Harris, if you can hear me, squeeze my hand, alright? Harris.

Hey, did you see that? Did you see it? He just did it. He did it. Harris is back. He’s back. Hey, hey. Harris, it’s Rafe. Hey, if you can hear me, open your eyes, man. Anyway.

Nurse Michelle, um, what’s happening? Detective Michaels is responsive. He’s definitely waking up. Oh, thank God. Oh, thank God. Oh.

Okay. We should have the CT results back shortly. How’s the headache? It’s gone. The dizziness? The lightheadedness? I feel totally fine now. Great. Oh, sorry, excuse me. Uh, I’ve got an emergency. I’ve got to run. But just sit tight and somebody will come in and relieve me, okay? Thanks, Mom. Absolutely. Thanks, Dr.

Johnson. Sure. I’m just glad you’re feeling better. You scared me, Everett. Yeah, I scared myself.

I just, I wish to hell I knew what was going on with me. Whatever it is, I’m sure my mom will figure it out. How

long do you think we’ve been in here? It’s hard to tell without looking.

Transcript provided by Thane and Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Mom,mom, mom, stop. People are watching. Please. Who cares? I care. I live here. So, just. Okay. It’s good to see you. Have you lost weight? The food here sucks. Well, maybe I can sneak in a cheeseburger next time, maybe from the pub. I have missed you so much and I loved your letters. Right. Yeah, find letters.

Another voicemail. Stop calling me.

Hey. Hey. How you feeling, baby girl? Like I was hit by a truck. I’ve um, I’ve hardly slept. I barely know which way is up right now. Yeah, I could hear in your voice last night. Two people are telling me two very different things and they both sound pretty damn convincing. So, who am I supposed to believe?

Well, I did some research. Wait, last night, after we talked, you didn’t have to do that. I couldn’t sleep either. Dad. Hey, I worry about you. I’m your papa. It’s part of my job description. Now I assume you want to know what I found out.

Hey, hey, Steph, it’s me. Um, I just, uh, I don’t know what to say. I, I, I, I swear to you, I’m, I’m not this, this, this Bobby person, okay? I mean, I’ve never even heard of him before. I mean, it’s, it’s, it’s honestly like the most absurd thing that I’ve ever heard in my life. I, I, I’m still the man that you, that you fell in love with in Seattle.

I’m, I’m the man who, who loves you right now. Please, please, please just, just call me. What the hell is happening? Oh my God. Why does that cop think I’m Bobby What’s His Face? And why can’t I remember what happened right before the accident?

We’ve got a lot to talk about, Bobby.

Ray. Ray, thank God you’re here. Yeah, I’m in the middle of something, Ava. My son. He’s missing. He didn’t show up for work last night and no one can get a hold of him. I called the hospital, his friends, everyone. What about Wendy? She’s missing too. Clyde Weston has them. I’m sure of it. Clyde Weston? Please, Rafe.

I need your help. You need to find them before something really bad happens. Oh god,

I fell asleep. Why’d you do it? So it wasn’t a dream. I don’t know if I like this. No. Why is my throat sore? I’ll be home. Oh, yeah.

My country. We’ve got to get out of here. We will, we will. We just We have to figure out how to first. We will do that. Together. Together.

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

Okay, and she didn’t call in. Yeah, that doesn’t sound like Wendy at all. And no remote logins either. Right. Okay, well call me in a second if you hear from her. Okay. Well, Wendy didn’t show up for work, and her supervisor can’t find her. This is, this is, this is, this isn’t happening. That can’t be happening.

Rafe, I cannot lose my son. You have got to do something. Okay, Ava, you need to back up a second. Tell me what this has to do with Clyde Weston.

Alright, let’s, let’s think backwards here, try to figure out a plan of action. Okay. Oh, we were at Cache and Cupid, just having a great time. Tripp, you may be in danger. What? I need to get you to a safe location. Both of you. Wait, wait, what is this about? Does this have anything to do with my mom or Harris?

Rafe will give me the details later, but I have to get you to safety. Now.

This is one hell of a safe house.

I don’t think this place is half bad. Wi Fi sucks. You get internet? They stream one movie a day and we don’t get to pick it. I hope it’s a good one. So how are your group therapy sessions going? It’s weird. They want us to talk about our feelings and stuff. In front of each other. So, Tate, how are you feeling right now, in this moment?

I don’t know, Doc. I’m, um, I’m hungry. Well, it sounds like you’re getting to the root of some of your feelings. That letter you wrote your father, that was What the hell, Dad? You showed Mom my letters? Hold on, hold on. I didn’t let her read it. He just told me about it. Those were private. I don’t like you two talking about me.

Okay. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I shared, I shared some of what was in the letter with your mother, okay? I didn’t realize that Look, you’re upset. Look, you’re entitled to be upset. If you want to be upset, then be upset, Tate. But listen, I, I know That I haven’t always been around. I can’t change that, son. I can’t change the past.

But I’m here now. I am here now!

Of course I want to know. I need to know. Okay. I still have more feelers out, but here’s what I have right now. I contacted an old colleague of mine who’s still with the Seattle PD. A part of what this guy told you checks out. God. Which part? There was in fact an accident which resulted in a John Doe being sent to the hospital the same time your Everett stopped contacting you.

Please don’t call him my Everett. I’m sorry. Anyway, I’m not able to access the medical records just yet. But, based on some conversations I had with a couple of sources, That John Doe was in the hospital for over a year. And his release coincides with Everett’s resurgence. Okay. So to an extent, This guy appears to be telling you the truth.

To an extent? Now the bad news.

My name. It’s not Bobby. Uh huh. Excuse me, excuse me! I did not, I did not invite you in. Don’t know why you are playing this sick game. But your name is Bobby Stein. Pardon me. Robert Stein. Look, I have our marriage certificate right here. Oh, and you know what else? I have a picture from our wedding day. Yeah, look how happy you look.

Clearly you were faking it, didn’t you? None, none of, None of this looks familiar. What are you talking about? That’s you! I see it. I see it, okay? I’m, I’m, I just, I don’t, I I don’t remember any of this. Oh, God. You know, if I wasn’t a police officer, I would smack you upside your head. And maybe that’ll jog your memory.

But you know what? I have a better option. If you’re not Bobby Stein, prove it. Fingerprints, now.

I want some coffee. Dad, quit stalling. Cut to the chase.

Okay.

This is from a few years ago. That’s Robert Stein’s driver’s license photo with his Seattle address. Can’t be. Unless he has a twin? I checked. No record of a twin on his birth certificate.

So Everett is Bobby. I’m sorry, Stephanie. Looks like there’s more to this dude than meets the eye. Do you think he’s been lying? Or do you really think that he can’t remember who he is? That I don’t know. And he wasn’t an accident. He could have suffered some neurological trauma. But since I don’t have the medical records, that’s just a guess.

It’s also possible that He could be lying.

The one thing I know for sure, based on the timeline, this man was dating you. While he was married. Yeah. His marriage certificate is on record. Robert Stein, legally married Jada Hunter in King County, Washington.

Ever said that he was missing chunks of time before the accident? That the doctor said that it was retrograde amnesia, that, that maybe in time his memories would come back. Well, that doesn’t change the fact that he was married when he was dating you, it just means he doesn’t remember that fact.

Dad, I have to go. Baby girl, listen. No, I just I need to process this, but thank you for helping me. Okay.

Now listen, I’m not going to stop looking into this. I know. Okay.

Here, Dad. You’re here for me. In this halfway house where I don’t belong. Where you two should be. What? Excuse me. That is not okay. Why not? I’m not a drug addict. I’m being punished because of my parents. I’m guilty because of association. You are here because you were found with Holly’s pills in your hand.

No kidding. God, I wish she would just wake up so she could tell everyone that I didn’t do anything wrong. Listen to me. I have news for you on that front, okay? I’ve been texting with Nicole in Italy. Holly’s doing better. She’s off her ventilator and she’s actually breathing on her own. Thank God. That is good news.

How long until she wakes up? I don’t know, but given her apparent progress, she could be home any day now.

Hmph. Well, I’ll be damned. What? What does it say?

Hey there, Bobby.

That can’t be right. Oh, it is. Fingerprints don’t lie. You are exactly who you’ve always been. A slimy, two faced bastard. I don’t remember you. Well, I sure as hell remember you. In spite of doing everything possible to forget you. Falling for a divorce was the best thing that I ever did. I left my hellish life with you in the rear view and I never looked back.

Uh, please. Yes. Please believe me. I, I don’t remember any of this. Okay? You were a liar throughout our marriage and you are still a liar now. Although we have, we have concrete proof of who you are. Bobby, just for once, for once in your life, just, just be a man and own up to what you did.

I mean it, Ava. If you want my help, you need to level with me. No more BS. Now what does Clyde Weston have to do with Tripp and Wendy going missing?

You know, I think this was a big mistake. Ava! If he’s taken them, then we are racing against the clock here. You need to tell me the truth.

Okay.

You know when Harris and I were in here that day and I slapped him? Yeah, kind of hard to forget. Okay, but what you don’t know is that we made a deal that day. Okay. What kind of deal? Look, Harris convinced me that the only way to save myself and the people that I love was,

was to work with him. Okay, let’s, let’s, can we just like back up a second? When you save yourself from who? Clyde Weston? Yeah. Look, you remember that day? You know how I told you that, that, Clyde tried to kill Tripp and, and, how he told me that if I didn’t work with him, he was gonna go through with it. Mm hmm.

Yeah, you said that you went to the prison and then you talked him out of it. Right, I did. Okay, well then if you did that, then what’s the threat? Look, you know, you know that Clyde is a scary guy, right? I had no guarantee that he was gonna be safe, and so

Harris convinced me to work with him, and that I would help him bring Clyde down for good. And how were you gonna do that? You know, intel. Keeping my ear to the ground, reporting back. Uh huh. So you were working as an informant? Even though you weren’t working with Clyde. Right. But it backfired. Charis got shot.

My son is missing. And I know that Clyde has him. I know it.

I don’t get it. Why here? What did that cop bring us here?

Okay, is it just me or is this really weird safe house? It’s a very secure location. Quiet, no traffic, no one will find you here. We’ve got eyes on this place at all times. You’ll be protected. From who? That’s a good question. You know what, I’m just gonna call Rafe and check in. You’re not calling anyone.

Tell us over your phones. No.

What a hero. Your phone. Doc.

Into the tank. Move.

Now. Sleep tight. I

thought she was one of the good guys. Yeah. Yeah, me too.

Don’t be stupid. What the hell? Are you doing this? If this is about money, my family will pay you whatever you want. Money? Please. Sit down. I said Sit.

I suggest you ration your supplies.

Oh my god, so Holly’s okay, thank god. And this means that This means that she can tell everyone what actually happened that night on New Year’s Eve. That, that I didn’t give her the drugs that I, I mean, I didn’t even want to, I even tried to tell her not to take them. This means I can come home. Okay, well honey, let’s, let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Yeah. It’s just one step outta two. Yeah. Your, your mom is right. ’cause we, we don’t, we don’t know what Holly is going to say when she wakes up or if she even remembers what happened that night. No, no, no. She will, I, I know she will. And she’ll tell the truth. She, she’s got to. What? What? We have to prepare for the possibility that Holly may not want to tell the truth.

You don’t seem to understand. Okay, I would own up to all of it. To everything. If I could remember any of it. Does that make sense? Am I interrupting? No, come in. You need to see this. Does this man look familiar? Oh, you know what? Wait, it gets better. You know, I scanned his fingerprints. And this man is Robert Stein.

So you were married when we started dating? I don’t, I don’t I don’t remember being married. I don’t remember her. I’m sorry. I didn’t know. Well, now you do. And I’ve said my piece, so I’m gonna leave. But just remember, Stephanie. This man claimed that he loved you while he was married to me. He’s nothing but a player, a liar, and a cheat.

And if I wasn’t your friend, I would say good luck. But because I am, run. Get out while you can.

Oh, and I am not going to stop digging until I get the whole story on you. And best believe, people are going to hear about it. I don’t know. Maybe from a rival newspaper. You got that, Mr. Editor in Chief?

Why do you think that Clyde has Tripp and Wendy? Because it’s how he operates. He holds things over people. And he hurts them. In the most painful way possible. Yeah, I know he does. I’ve seen it. But my question is, what does he have over you? Look, I was trying to do the right thing. And Harris saw how bad the situation was, and so I was gonna help him.

I was gonna help him bring Clyde down once and for all, but the whole thing just backfired. Hey, Ava, we’re just dancing around here, okay? I need solid information if I’m gonna bring him down. Don’t you get it? Clyde is untouchable. He is untouchable.

Hey, Milan, I really appreciate your help on this one. Yeah, that’s right. It’s L Y N C H. Uh huh. Okay. No. I know you’re gonna come through for me. You’re the best, man. Alright, I’ll wait for your text. Thanks a lot.

Hey, what’s up? Steve, we’ve got a problem. Trip’s missing. What? He didn’t show up for his shift last night at the hospital. No one can reach him. I’m at the police station. You need to get here now. I’m on my way.

Is he coming? Yeah. Alright, let’s get the paperwork started before he gets here.

Goldman, can you come in here please? What do you have, Mitch? Ms. Battaglia needs to file a missing persons report, if you can help her with that. On it. We have a first issue of Bolo on Tripp Johnson and Wendy Shinn. Ms. Battaglia will give you the descriptions. Thank you.

What do you mean she might not want to tell the truth? Why wouldn’t she? Okay, think about it. Telling the truth. It means admitting that the drugs were hers, okay? She, she may not want to get herself in that kind of trouble. And that’s if she even remembers anything. We just, we don’t know what Holly’s gonna say.

And don’t forget EJ has been, has been spinning this narrative about it being all your fault and he may persuade her to stick to that. No. No. No, we’re friends. She wouldn’t, she wouldn’t do that to me. She would not hurt me like that. No, son, she She may not want to hurt you, but she might be scared. Okay, and if she’s scared, she’ll do whatever she has to do to save herself.

She might wake up really confused or muddled. We just want you to be prepared. This is crap! I didn’t do anything wrong. And I don’t even know why I bother trying to do the right thing. They’re just going to accuse me for doing something that I didn’t do and lock me up for no reason. God, I just, I want to go home.

I want to get out of here. I don’t want to be here anymore. Don’t, just don’t, don’t. Don’t. So Tripp never made it to work and he didn’t call in to explain? Nope, and no one can reach him, and like I said, Did you talk to Wendy? She’s missing too. I filed a missing persons report. Okay. When’s the last time you saw Triff?

Yesterday. He and Wendy were together. Yeah, Stephanie told me she saw them both with the Cash and Cupid fundraiser. So no one’s heard from them since? Ah, voicemail again. Hey, Ava. Why would our son be missing? What else do you know about this? No, no, no, no. Hold on a second. The last time Trip went missing, you kept half the story from me.

Now we don’t have time for this crap, so start talking and tell me everything. Now.

I can’t believe Goldman’s dirty. I’m just pissed I didn’t see it. Was she under surveillance? Well, not by my department. But who knows, I’m not always privy to stuff. She fooled a lot of smart people. She’s definitely working for Clyde.

This is what my mom was talking about. This is why she couldn’t go to the police, why she didn’t trust them. Yeah, and why she was so hell bent on getting us out of Salem. Why would they take us now? Well, if Clyde is behind this You know he is. And this is about leverage over my mom. He knows that she’ll do whatever it takes to get us back.

Well, I’m sick of sitting around. I mean, I think there’s got to be a way out of here. Maybe there’s a release valve or something. Hey, look up there. There’s another hatch here. Here, get on my shoulders.

It’s all here, isn’t it? Just your real life with your wife, Jada. What the hell, Everett? Or do I call you Bobby? Stephanie, Stephanie, Stephanie. Please. Please. You know me. You know me. Clearly, I don’t. Do you remember that night that you rented that cottage on Mercer Island? Yeah. It had rained all day. We took the ferry over.

When we got there, you told me that you’d never been in love before. Never. Until me. You said that I was the missing piece in your life. Yes. We even started talking next steps. Moving in. Made sure we both wanted a family. And now absolutely none of it was real. Every. Single. Moment. I’ve had with you. Is real.

It’s real. Come on. I was your mistress. That was your side piece. But hey, you’re not the first man in the world to hide his wife from the poor sap he’s pretending to be in love with. I’m not hiding anything! I’m not hiding. I don’t remember being married. See, that doesn’t make sense. Because your accident happened after all that.

So if you had developed some sort of amnesia, it came after you and me. So the question is, are you a lying dirtbag? Or some kind of sociopath? Who the hell are you? Hey,

there’s no question you got a bum rap here. We know you shouldn’t be here. We just don’t want you to get your hopes up when it comes to Holly. Like your mom said, we just want you to take this one step at a time. And in the meantime, you’re, you’re in a safe place here. Yeah? Yeah. Gives you some time for self reflection and to, and to get stronger.

You can learn about addiction. I am not a drug addict. I don’t do drugs. And just because you two ruined your life with them does not mean that you get to pass that guilt trip on to me.

Now that hatch wouldn’t budge. They must have figured out that we’re missing now, right? I mean, you were supposed to have a shift last night. I, I should have been at work this morning. Yeah, my mom’s probably freaking out. She’s probably called a thousand times. But our phones are no doubt destroyed by now.

Okay, so where are we? What do you remember about getting here? An obstacle that put us into a van with no windows. Yeah, that should have been our first clue. Yeah. She played it so well. Yeah, I bought that she was taking us to a secure location and didn’t want anyone to see us. And she didn’t want us to see where we were going.

And we drove for like, what? Half hour? Yeah, that sounds about right.

What do you remember when we got out of the van?

It’s really dark. I, uh, Gravel parking lot. And I thought I heard a plane. Yeah, me too. I thought I could smell, uh, Gas. Maybe we’re near the airport.

You want the truth? Okay, here goes. Clyde Weston has been using the restaurant as a front for drug operations. The Bistro has been a warehouse for product being moved in and out to Clyde’s network of dealers. So how did you get mixed up in that mess? Because he was blackmailing me with our son. He threatened to kill Trip, and everything that I have been doing has been to try and keep him safe.

But it didn’t even matter because in the end it all came down to this. Here we are. Clyde has taken him. I know it. He was behind Harris getting shot, and the fire at the Horton house, and now he has taken Trip and Wendy. You have to help them, Steve. Please, please do not let that monster hurt our son.

Please, please help me find him. Please, please help me save our boy.

I’m not a sociopath. I am not a cheater. I, I am still the man who, who took that ferry with you to Mercer Island. I am the man who danced in the rain with you at the cottage. I am still the man who envisions spending the rest of my life with you, Stephanie. I don’t know what the hell is happening! What’s happening is, reality is hitting you in the face there.

God, no. No. No, no, no, no. No, this is this is like a a nightmare that I can’t wake up from and I just I feel like everybody’s coming at me and I feel I feel uh, I just feel uh

First of all ava you don’t have to beg me to save my own son And as far as the rest of it goes, I don’t have time to play the blame game, so here’s how it’s gonna go. I’m gonna find Tripp and Wendy, and I’m gonna bring them home. And after that, you are gonna turn yourself in to the police and make a full confession about your involvement in this mess.

You got it? Listen, I ran Everett

Lynch’s purse. What? He is Bobby Stein, my ex husband. Oh my god, no way. Yeah. I’m so sorry, Jay. I can’t believe that lying son of a bitch wound up here in Salem.

You okay? Yeah, yeah, I’m mostly just angry. Who am I kidding, I’m shaking. I thought that I had put all that crap that I went through with him behind me. Yeah. All these villains, they started rushing back and back. Oh. Okay. You need to go home? No. No. I need to stay. Are you sure? Yeah. Alright. I want to hear more about this later, but, uh, there’s some stuff I need to catch up on.

What’s going on? Is it Harris? No. No. Wendy, Shin, and Crip Johnson are missing. What? Yeah. Come on. I’ll tell you all about it. Okay. Everett. Sorry. Sorry. Are you okay? You passed out. Yeah. What? Look, if you’re faking No, you’re just, uh I’m okay. I’m okay. Your skin’s kind of clammy and you’re Look a little pale.

Okay, okay. I’m taking you to the hospital now. I’m good. I’m good. I’m good. I’m good.

You think we’ll be here for a while? Yeah. You know, Officer Goldman told us to ration those protein bars to water, so That’s my guess. Hey, what are those vents up there?

I saw those when I was on your shoulders. Fresh air. That’s good. If they ever close, we’re dead. Look, if they wanted us dead, we would be already. I’m not, I’m not, I’m not saying that to freak you out, okay? Yeah, well, it’s hard to not be freaked out when you’re locked in a stainless steel tank. For some reason, you need us alive.

Yeah, I hope so. What if that’s only temporary? We’re not gonna stick around to find out, okay?

Let’s find, let’s find a way to get Sal out of here. We don’t deserve that. I don’t know.

I want you both to leave. No. No, we, we, we’re gonna talk this out. We’re not. We’re not in charge here. And I’m not required to allow visitors, so Get out. Now. No, hold on. Let’s not end the visit this way. Let’s not do this, okay? Please. We love you, son. That’s uh, that’s your problem? Hate. I hate you both.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Perfect spot for a picnic. Not to mention my favorite part of Salem.

It’s a shame you started that new housing development across the street. Well, that’s progress, my darling. Yes, I suppose it is. And, just so you know, don’t fill up on the main course. I brought a little treat for desserts. I’ve been playing with this new recipe for donuts, but I haven’t perfected it yet, so Well, I can’t wait to try them.

And have I told you today how much I love you? Yes, but you’re welcome to tell me again. And again. I love you, Alice, won’t I? I love you, Tom Horton.

Here’s to our first year of marriage. And all the years to come.

I am so sorry to keep you waiting. Oh, don’t worry about that. How is Holly doing? Well, our precious girl is comatose. But, uh, isn’t it wonderful that she is back home with her loved ones? Nicole must be so relieved to be back. That she is. We all know how important it is to be close to family. Amen. Um, Are you sure about heading over there this morning?

Well, the safety inspector gave us a green light. I mean, I know it’s going to be hard. But yes, we’re ready. Yeah. Oh,

handsome. Did I thank you for last night? A candlelit dinner, a dance, and we came after. Phew. Definitely a night to remember. Good morning, you two. Hope we’re not too early. No, not at all. As a matter of fact, we’re just getting ready to head to the board now. Yeah, yeah, so are we. We thought we’d stop by for some to go coffee if it’s not too much trouble.

And we thought we’d take some, some of Alice’s doughnuts as a gesture of honor. And solidarity. My goodness, boy, what a terrible fire in the heart and house, but the good news is nobody was hurt, thank god. Yes, Moses, definitely. Do they know what caused the fire? Nope, just that it was definitely arson. 116,

117, 118, 119, 120. It’s the devil! Yes, I was about to break

my record that time. Oh, no, we wouldn’t want journalism to get in the way of breaking his little record, no, would we? Right? What are you doing here anyway? I thought you were taking the day off. Little man thinks he forgot a toy here. My radio controlled amphibious crocodile car. Kid, on the road of life, we are all looking for our radio controlled amphibious crocodile cars.

Hmm. Mm hmm. I think I left some in the back office. Okay. I hope he’s right. It’ll be the only thing that wasn’t ruined in the fire. Poor little guy. He has suffered way too much loss for someone his age. Yeah, he sure has.

Oh god, no.

I have no words. No words, but we still have each other. Thank god.

What was that?

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

How are you holding up? I’m doing okay. Eh, just doing my best to get the kids through this. They’re lucky to have you. You know that, right? That they are lucky to have you? Uh, yeah, well, you know, it shouldn’t have happened. It was, um, it was, uh, my fault. What? How? The fire. It was because of the story we published, implicating Clyde Weston.

Well, first of all, that was Everett’s article. Which I approved. Yeah, and you said yourself the Spectator was committed to publishing the truth. My kid’s good.

I put my family, uh, in danger. And, uh, and I put Doug and Julie in danger. And it was, uh, reckless and selfish. You were doing your job. You had no way of knowing that this was gonna happen. Yeah, well Look, I may have a exceptionally winning personality, but even I don’t have a crystal ball. Well, it still feels like I let my family down, Leo.

Again. Thanks man. Unbelievable. After saving that house in 86 to have this happen? You mean the Horton house nearly burned down in 86? Oh yeah. Orpheus planted a bomb at our place right next door. We caught it just when the, uh, the Embers and Sparks were flying over onto the Horton Roof. Tom and Alice were there, and Abraham was there, too.

Yeah, we invited Abe to join us today. Yeah, we thought it might, you know, jog his memory a little bit. Oh, good. Is he coming? Oh, you haven’t heard. Pottinger had a heart attack last night. Oh, my God. Well, how is she? She’s in CCU. Abe won’t leave her side. Does he need anything? Maybe we should go to the hospital.

No, he just mostly asked for prayers. He said he’ll let us know if there’s anything we can do. Well, with memories or no memories, Abe is such an incredible man, and he and I have such a history. I mean, partners on the force, and forces a lot of barbecues at the Horton’s. And, you know Tom and Alice are serving up hot dogs and, and giving great, great advice.

Oh, that’s a fact. You know, I remember a time when I had the kids on my own for a while, and they were little, just little squids here. And I, out of my league as a single dad, but Alice says, Don’t push them. They’re just children. Give them enough room. To make their own mistakes. And so great. We all learned so much from Tom and Alice.

Yeah, I remember when I was a kid. Sandy, I remember Tommy Horton’s daughter. I mean, she and I, we ran rough shots. Through that house, day and night. Oh, what, are you telling me you were a tiny terror? Oh, you bet. And then one day, I knocked over Alice’s new lamp, busted it into a million pieces. I’m scared as hell that she’s gonna give me hell.

And all she said was, things are only things. They can be replaced. That does sound like Alice. Uh, we were told this place was clear. We were told it’s alright to be in here. Should we leave? No, you’re alright. Let me help with the chair. Uh, look. There’s not a mark on it. I can’t believe it. It’s almost pristine.

That chair, that was my grandmother’s chair. And it’s, it’s very important to all of us. It was originally Tom Horton’s chair, but he left it to Alice. How did you know that? Oh, Lucas! Oh,

Lucas, darling, what are you doing here? How did you get out of prison? It’s a long story, Aunt Maggie. But I knew you guys were gonna be here. And I missed my family. I will never forget how you welcomed me with open arms when you found out I was a Horton. Especially my grandparents.

The first time my new grandmother asked me to call her grandma. Hi, Miss Horton. Hello, Lucas. I’m so glad you came. Well, so am I. Thanks. Having a hard time calling me Grandma, aren’t you? I tell you what, there’s always Gran and Nana, but don’t call me Granny. Okay, no Granny. How about Grandma? That’s best. Well, you may not feel like it yet, but you are a member of the Horton family.

I know you found out just a short time ago. I guess it just takes a little bit of time to get used to it, you know. Well, time will take care of that, darling. But we all want you to become part of a family. That is, if you’ll let us. I’d like that, Grandma.

Being a Hortonstone means everything to me. This house, this is the symbol, the symbol of, of our love that binds us all together. So many memories. Which is why it means so much for me to be here with you now. But there’s something you guys should know. Something really important. None of you can tell anyone I was here.

Hey, tell me what you would do if I went after Thomas with this paddle. If I just started whacking him with it, right here, right now. I’d rip your face off and I’d beat you to a pulp with it. Okay, well. But yes, and you would step in front of a bullet for Charlotte. You would walk through fire for those kids.

As a matter of fact, you did. And everybody knows it. So stop blaming yourself, Chadwick. This was not your fault. Thank you, Leo. Yeah. I needed to hear that. And, um Might need you to remind me of it every once in a while, yeah? Anytime. Dad, look! I found it! Um, that is the oddest looking radio controlled amphibious crocodile car I have ever seen.

No, not my car! This! Dad, I left it here. That’s so awesome, buddy. Let me see. Oh, that’s amazing. Come here. Sure is nice to see you smiling, buddy. Hello? Let me get a closer look. Is that a loose tooth I see? Yeah, it’s on right here. You know, it’d probably be easier if you just paid a bit in advance. That’s true, and you know, my wings could use a night off, so Here’s five dollars.

I told you in the wine store I get fifty dollars per tooth. No, five, five is enough, buddy. Here, five is good. Okay, fine. You can owe me the rest. No, he doesn’t, he doesn’t owe you anymore. That was, uh, that was very generous of him. You should say, say thank you to the Tooth Fairy. Thank you, Tooth Fairy. You are most welcome, Thomas.

Alright, buddy, you know what? We gotta, we gotta get you to school. Wait, aren’t you going to the house? Yeah, but you gotta go to school. Uh, can I come? Dad, please. I want to be with everyone at the house. Okay. Yeah, but if you get sad, I’m gonna take you back to Maggie’s, okay? Chadwick, do you think I would be welcome there?

I’d really love to learn about the Horton history. You can, you can come. I’ll ride with you. I want to see how this gooseberry flies. I weigh your expectations kid. I only moonlight as the tooth fairy, and I’m not planning on quitting my day job. Let’s hit it.

I’m here Tom Sorry, I’m late. Only a few minutes. Alice, you should not be carrying all that. It wasn’t heavy, it just slowed me down a bit. Mmm, I don’t know. Maybe we should put an ending to our picnic outings until after? No, I like getting out. Especially to our favorite spot. But, you’re gonna have to help me to the ground.

And back up again. Of course. Oh,

over these past couple of weeks, I can’t believe how much he or she has grown. Huh? Need I remind you that my family has twins? No, you need not. You’ve told me many times, but I think one is more than enough to handle, don’t you? I don’t believe that’s up to us. I only wish I could move inside that one bedroom apartment before the baby comes.

But someday, we will get a bigger place. I promise you that. It’s a shame they had to stop all that new development. But, with so much suffering in our country, I remind myself how grateful we are for all that we have. Very lucky.

Tom? Yes, my love? Tell me the truth. Now that I’ve gotten sobig Do I look unattractive? Are you kidding? You’re more beautiful than ever. In fact, you’re one red hot tomato.

Lucas, you didn’t escape from prison, did you? Absolutely not, Aunt Maggie. Well then, why can’t we tell anybody that we’ve seen you? I was released from prison under some very special circumstances. And I thought everything was on the up and up, but Let’s just say if certain people knew I was here right now, my life would be in danger.

Well, it sounds like witness protection. Well, not quite, but that’s the general idea. Oh, well, we know how to keep our lips buttoned up. Absolutely. Alright, I’m gonna get out of these clothes, okay? I’ll be right back. I’m so glad you’re here. Love you guys. Love you.

I can’t get over that chair. How did it escape untarnished?

Could be Grandma and Grandpa were watching over it.

Oh, Maggie. No, I know. I know. I know I gave you and Grandpa so much trouble when I was growing up. Remember when I got caught shoplifting? I will never forget it.

Well, you had a rebellious side. Your parents were gone so much of the time, I think you just needed attention. Oh, thank you, Graham. Well, we do mellow a bit with age, I guess.

Hello, everyone. Oh. Oh, how sweet of you to be here. Thank you, thank you. Of course, of course. We brought you some of Alice’s donuts. Very thoughtful. Very sweet. Thanks. We are so sorry this happened. We know it’s God’s blessing that we got out with our lives. You two aren’t going to believe this. Look. Our grandparents chair.

It survived the fire. It’s in perfect condition. Oh, this is just absolutely amazing. Yeah, it is. Honey. Oh. Is everyone excited to see you? Oh, that’s an understatement. He, uh, told us not to say a word about him being here. No. Well, that’s true. We can’t risk any more retributions. Not with Clyde’s man on the loose.

Clyde? Clyde is the man that’s after you? Oh, Lucas. Well, we’re not going to say anything, but where is he going next? Hey, you know what? The less you know, the better. Okay? And later, we’re going to get him out of here the same way we got him in. With the firefighter. This guy. Okay. Be careful! I will, for sure.

And now, I want to check the appliances to see which, if anything, is functioning. Oh, you sweetheart. Okay, let’s look at the appliances. Art, are you skilled at repairing appliances too, Lucas? No, not quite, but they do have donuts. It’s been a while since I had one of those. Oh, now I am worried for you, Lucas.

May we come in? Please do. Oh, Marlena, John, thank you for coming. Uh, we, um, brought everyone some donuts. Oh, how thoughtful. Roman and Kate, they Yes, I’ve brought donuts too. We know. Oh. Yeah. Oh my. Oh, Peggy, it’s a shame this had to happen. Look at this place. Yeah. We had so many wonderful times here. Tom and Alice were like family to me when I first arrived from Colorado.

And Tom welcomed me to the hospital. It was I’m so grateful. And you were treating Mickey at Bayview. You were, and you still are the best. You know, I still remember the first time I stepped foot in this house. Mickey is beginning to overcome his fear of the outside world. Keeping his promise to Maggie, taking her dancing after all this time.

She was so thrilled. A young woman like that, waiting for a man who is no longer the same man she married. It takes courage. Maggie knows there are no guarantees. I hope so. See, Mickey is going through a period of sorting out his life. He’s keeping some things and he’s discarding others. And how long do you think that will take?

Depends on Mickey. Could be weeks, months. In some cases, it’s years. But there is one thing that I’m sure of. Mickey is showing definite signs of progress. You saved Mickey. We were all grateful for that. And here we are, 40 years later, standing in front of the most iconic chair in all of Salem.

Hard to believe it’s been nearly 30 years since we lived next door.

Well, at least the fire didn’t spread that far, because We sure had some good times on that porch, didn’t we, Doc?

Oh, wow. Dad, everything’s burnt. Yeah.

Look at this. Hi, little man. How you doing? Hey, um, uh, Thomas, why don’t you take, uh, Lucas upstairs to your bedroom to check it out, okay? It’s too dangerous to do by yourself. Alright, we can do that. Leo Stark is here. Oh, and don’t come down until he’s gone. Okay, thanks. Come on.

Chad. Hey. I hope it’s okay. I took some photos outside. Yeah. Yeah, all good.

Leo Star? What are you doing here? He’s, he’s, he’s not here as Lady Whistleblower. He’s just, um, he wants to learn about the Horton family history. Uh, the Hortons have long been known as the first family of Salem. Would you do me the honor of telling me about them?

My, you look as pretty as a picture sitting there. Aren’t you the sweet talker? No, no, don’t get up. I’m coming. What do we have today? Tommy and Addie have kept me so busy this morning. I had to make one of those new macaroni and cheese meals right out of the box. Now don’t you tell my mother. How did you hide it from her when she came by to babysit?

It wasn’t easy. As you know, she likes to offer her opinions on my cooking and cleaning. Well, don’t change a thing for me. I think your ace is at taking care of our family of four. Actually, our little family of five. Are you? Holy smokes! Oh, it’s wonderful. It better not be twins this time. Three babies will be more than enough to handle.

Three youngsters in a little apartment. Well, now we have to move. And I hear those houses across the street, we’re back in production soon. They’re too expensive, Tom. We don’t need a house. We’ll manage. You’re right, darling Alice. Of course. You’re right.

So, the Horton family history in Salem begins with my grandparents. They were teenage sweethearts. Indeed they were. And they got married March 7th. 1930. Right here in Salem. Yes, darling, he did. Uh, my grandpa Tom was a medical student at the time, uh, at the university. And, uh, it was the Depression. The two of them lived in a tiny little apartment.

They didn’t get this house until they started their family. And the family started with my mother Addie and her brother Tom. Uh, they were twins. Uh, next comes, well Uncle Mickey, who became a very prominent lawyer in Salem. And he was married, first to Laura, and then to our darling Maggie. After that comes Bill.

Now he is the father of Jennifer and Michael and Lucas. And Bill was the one that brought me here to Salem. We met in prison, where I was being held. For being a con man. The plot thickens. Yes, yes. Well, Once he met the Hortons, the leopard changed his spots. Yes, then comes Aunt Marie, and Marie became a nun after she fell in love with a stranger in town who in time turned out to be her her brother, long lost in the Korean War.

The brother, Tommy. Brother and sister? Wow. Very Game of Thrones. Yes, well, I’m sure if we told you all about the Hortons, we would be here until Christmas. Of 2025. So, when do you join the picture? Well, my mother had, my mother Addie, had me and my brother Stephen by my father, Ben Olson. He passed away. Then after that, she was a widow for a while and then my mother remarried.

And she married me. After mother died, well, I’d always been crazy about Doug. And so, here we are. And we’ve been together ever since. The Wharton’s had their share of drama, Leo. They had mental illness, addiction, infidelity. Stranglers, stalkers, even demon possession. Yes. Yes, yes, but we rose above all of that, you see.

I, I think it was because of the, of the legacy of love that was passed on to us by Tom and Alice. Yeah. Tell them about the song. Their, their song. Well, why don’t you just sing a few bars instead? Oh, yes, please do. Oh, please. I’ll be loving. You always win with the love. The true always. Not for just an hour.

Not not just a day. Not for just a year, but.

Let me guess, is it called Always? Yes, by Irving Berlin, yes. This is an amazing story, truly. Would you mind if I wrote something for the Spectator about your family history? I promise I will do the Hortons justice. All right, as long as Chad approves the final version. It’s a deal. Thank you. Thank you all. I really appreciate you sharing with me, especially during this time.

I’ll show you one.

I’ll be loving you. Always with the love is true. Always. Not for just an hour. An hour, right? No, for just a.

Oh,

darling.

Okay, well, all the, uh, appliances will need to be replaced and rewired, but no worries. The insurance will cover it. Um, are Lucas and Thomas, are they still upstairs? Yeah, they’re still seeing what toys they can salvage. Oh, I know. I don’t, I don’t hold on, uh, hold on to too much hope, though. The kids are tough.

They’re gonna be alright. You know. I’m gonna have to lose an abbey, you know what that says. As sad as it is, and as terrified as we all were about the fire, it’s At the day, it’s just things. It’s just material possessions. Yeah. Hey, hey, hey! Look what we found down in the cellar! The ornaments are safe! I was praying that they were These are irreplaceable.

We’re so fortunate, aren’t we, Alice? So many suffering all around us. And I feel bad that I’m not doing my part to help ease that suffering. So, I was thinking that maybe someday, when the kids are all off at school and you’re busy taking care of the sick at the hospital, I could run a center to help people in need.

What a swell idea. And knowing you, I suspect it’ll happen. I appreciate your faith in me. Well, I just know when you set your mind to something, it always happens. And speaking of that, I actually have something I want to show you. I was going to wait until we got home, but you know how impatient I am.

Oh my. Look at those. I had them made for the children too. One for Tommy, and Addie, and Mickey. So, we can make it a tradition. Every Christmas, we’ll put these ornaments on our tree. And, maybe someday, we’ll add ornaments for our grandchildren. And even our great grandchildren. Well then, we’re gonna need a bigger tree.

And a very big house. Oh, oh, are they all in this good condition? Crazy, huh? They look perfect. Without a crack in any of them. Oh boy. Oh, I can’t wait to tell Doug. Where is he? Um, next door. Talking to Dan and Dave, our neighbors. He had to catch up. You know, everything, you know. Julie? Look at these.

God is good. Yes. Tom and I want you and Bo to put this on the tree. It’s for a new great grandchild we’re going to bring another time. I

love you, Tom. The Horton family tradition, it can live on. From the first five ornaments, Tom and Alice, Addie, Tommy, and Mickey. To our newest Wharton, my granddaughter, Victoria. Ah. Yes. What a legacy.

I didn’t expect to see you here. Well, I missed my family, so. Hey, Thomas, stop. Put that down. Thomas. Thomas. I’m gonna count to three. One, two, One, two, pitch!

What is it? Yeah.

It’s a time capsule. Placed by Alice Horton, 1966. With all my love, to be open on or after 2016.

I got Tommy one of those flying planes. It’s supposed to be crash proof, but I’ll believe it when I see it. And I found that Shirley Temple doll for Addie. Jeez, what a search that was. And Oh. Oh, Tom. The house is sold. You seem disappointed. I am, actually. I admit that secretly, I wish we would live there one day.

Yes, well, sometimes wishes do come true.

Alice, my very generous father in law gave us the down payment. The house, it’s ours. What? The house? The house is ours! Oh, Tom! Oh, Tom, it’s ours! Oh, the house is ours!

Well, I’m dying to know what’s in it. What would Al put the time caps in? Hey, inquiring minds want to know. Well, at this rate, I’m not sure we’ll ever know. Ah, let’s not give up just yet. Get a hammer.

Let’s go out.

Maggie? You alright? Oh, I was just thinking. I was sitting in this very room when Tom passed away. Alice was in her chair. And Mickey and I were still together. My grandmother. She was the strongest one of all. She still inspires me. Everything she said about their life together, still gets me teary. Yet after everyone was gone, she and I, we were here, alone.

I’ll, uh, clear out these dishes to the kitchen for you, okay? I like it. Thank you. In

every small town, there is a place, a centerpiece, where townspeople gather to laugh, to cry, and to celebrate. In Salem, that place is 545 Sycamore Street, the home of Tom and Alice Horton. Most Salemites are familiar with Tom and Alice. After all, our town square is named after them. As lifelong residents, the Hortons taught their five children the value of community, compassion, resilience, and most of all, love of family and friends.

These principles were passed down to Tom and Alice’s ten grandchildren, their fifteen great grandchildren, and now great great grandchildren, with the legacy ever expanding. So many more of our townsfolk have been blessed to be welcomed into the Horton Fold as extended family. Many of them still visit the Horton House today to bask in the aura that lingers from the days of Tom and Alice.

That is, until some malicious malfeasant tried to incinerate their legacy by setting fire to this historic structure. But today, as I sat with the family in their charred living room, it was clear to me. The arsonist failed in his mission. For it is clear. Theirs is a legacy that can never be destroyed. It lives on in every kind word, every good deed, every heartfelt embrace extended by this family.

Indeed, Tom and Alice’s legacy has only grown stronger as the family unites with a commitment to rebuild and the hope for new beginnings. Tom and Alice Horton, thank you. 545 Sycamore Street. Salem loves you.

Oh, Tom. It’s more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Welcome to our new house, Alice. Oh, no. It is so much more than that. A house is made of brick and stone, but only love can make a home.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Catching some Z’s, huh, Mama? Well, she has been asleep since you left. her. I really needed that shower. And what would you thank me for? There’s nothing in the world I’d rather do than be here beside your Mama. Yeah. I do know that. Well, I’m glad you got a break. When are you going to take one? Well, I don’t know.

At, uh, at some point. Here you go. Mom and

I used to do this all the time when I was a little kid.

She’d tell me that this is what mama goats did with their baby goats.

You know, I keep on thinking about all the wisdom that mama and big mama have given me over the years about dealing with tough times. And the thing that just keeps coming back to me is mama telling me Darling, you can’t change the direction of the wind, but you can adjust yourselves to make sure you always reach your destination.

I like that. And another one that I keep thinking of that Mama told me recently was, do not let your pain and your struggle make you a victim. You let your battle make you someone else’s hero. Your mama. Your mama’s my hero.

Mine too.

Well, look who it is, Monfee. Dad, hey. You look knackered, my boy. I know it’s a lot there at the hospital, isn’t it? Uh, yeah. Yeah, it is. Um, I can, I can see you’re busy though, so I will, um, That won’t bother you. Oh, no, no, no, no. No, no bother. No bother at all. I’m just trying to tie up some loose ends, making sure a multinational corporation remains solvent.

All right. Johnny! Nicole, you’re home! Yeah, I am. Oh, hey, hi! It is, wow, it is, it’s great to see you. Thanks, you too. Although, you look like you could use a good night’s sleep. Uh, yeah, I definitely could. Um, house? Holly. Well, she’s She’s upstairs in her room. You can go see for yourself. Uh

Hey! You got the gold, too? Sure did. How are the kids? Must be, uh, rough. Yeah, you know, her, um, she’s still trying to process everything. Turns out they have, uh, some unique coping strategies. Tom’s created a 12 point fire safety plan for Maggie’s place. Think it’s his way to, you know, try to gain control. Yeah, I understand that.

Tom, what about you? How you doing? Yeah, good. Just, uh, been dealing with insurance adjusters, talking to, uh, contractors about repairs, and spending whole afternoons listening to that, uh, two hour on hold jingle. It’s wonderful. Anyway, what do you think this meeting’s about? Uh, something about Lucas Horton, that’s all I was told.

Well, um, beyond the, uh, Spectator article, which has turned out to be a bit controversial, I don’t know, uh, I don’t know what point they would have to talk to us. Yeah. No idea. Um, Off the topic of this, um, upcoming interrogation, uh, have you, uh, have you talked to Stephanie lately? No, why? Um, I guess there’s, there’s something that I want you to hear straight from me.

Um, Gentlemen? Gina. Why are we here? Is this about the uh, Lucas Horton article? This is about the attempted murder of Lucas Horton.

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

someone tried to kill Lucas? Is he, is he okay? He is fine. Fortunately. The investigation is still in its fact gathering phase. I don’t understand. How did this story not leak? You think you’re the only one who can keep a secret? Well, that’s kind of funny. You can say on PD’s history of leaking information.

What I can tell you is that the shooting occurred the same night that Detective Michaels was hit. Okay, so also the same night as the fire. Yes. The gunman broke into the Brady Pub, opened fire in Harris room, where Lucas was being held. And the reason the two of you are here is because only a very small and selective group of people knew Lucas location.

Harris, Roman, Kate, and the two of you. Which means that one of the aforementioned people gave up Lucas location. And we are determined to find out who that was.

Oh, well, that’s a pretty limited selection of books at the library, if you can call it that. No, no pride in the prejudice. You know, that’s Mama’s favorite. No, just some 20 year old travel guides and some cookbooks. And she’s still asleep, I see. Yeah. Yeah, Kayla said that, um, she may not wake up for a while because of the medication.

You know, I keep thinking that we were so worried about the cancer and now,

you know. Mama has said to me a lot over the years, whenever I’ve done something stupid, she would say, Chanel, you’re gonna give your mama a heart attack.

And I bet she won’t be making that joke anymore. No, I don’t think she will. Oh, Abe, after everything Mama’s gone through, then Yes. That’s been a lot. It’s been a lot. But you know, your mother’s favorite expression, God doesn’t give us any more than we can handle. Right. And Mama can handle anything that’s thrown her way.

Isn’t that right, Mama? You can handle anything. And then some. You’re gonna make it through this.

Holly’s home? Since when? Since late afternoon yesterday, the doctors in Italy were confident that she could handle the flight back home with her mother, of course, and that the best situation for her right now is to be in her own bed, in her own home, under the supervision of her doctors here in Salem, of course.

Right, but, I mean, I’m assuming that since the doctors over there allowed her to fly all the way over here and be in a Non hospital setting, that means she’s on the mend, right? Well, she’s breathing on her own, so yes, that is a good sign. And thank God EJ had a positive experience with those doctors in Italy.

Worked miracles for him and were able to bring Holly to the stage of her recovery. That’s just, I mean, that’s great. So, what are next steps? So, the next step is to remain hopeful that she will Open her eyes and smile that big smile and then immediately ask for her phone so she can check her texts and emails.

Exactly. Well, whatever the case, I’m just, I’m glad you guys are both home. As am I. I’m ecstatic. Um, EJ’s been filling me in on everything, and how did Paulina’s thyroid surgery go? Um, yeah, it was successful. So that’s good. They got all the cancer out. There was no metastasis. However, she did have a heart attack.

What? Yeah. My God. At the end of her But, fortunately, she was already in the hospital, so they were able to treat her quickly. She had an angioplasty to unblock a coronary artery, and I guess they’re saying she’s in stable condition. Thank God for that. Tony, if there’s anything that she needs, or any of you need, please don’t hesitate to ask us, okay?

Yeah, I will. Um Also, I do have some, some other news that happened at the hospital earlier today.

Need we have a stiff drink at the ready for this other news? Um, more like champagne. See, as of now, Chanel and I are, uh, husband and wife. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what? When, when did this happen and where? It happened at the hospital. Uh, you know, we both knew how important the wedding ceremony was to Paulina, so we just had it at her bedside.

Well, that’s perfect. Paulina must’ve been thrilled. Yes, she was a very happy mother of the bride. Well, how is she doing? She’s resting. You know, just, uh, waiting to see what the next steps are in her recovery. Well, we will be praying for her. And Johnny, I’m so happy for you and Janelle. Thank you. Thank you.

And I am very, very happy for you as well, son. Just a little bit hurt that Nicole and I weren’t invited to the wedding. Yeah, well, look, I know. I am sorry. Okay, it’s just, we knew too much excitement probably wasn’t very good for Paulina, so we wanted to keep it limited to just Abe, Chanel, and me. I understand, and I’m just teasing you.

And look, son, I know that I haven’t been supportive in the past about your relationship with Chanel, but I see how much she improves your life. And that you two, uh, you complement each other. And I love that. You have my blessing. Well, thank you dad, that means a lot. It does. So I assume you and Chanel would like to move into one of the wings of the house?

Oh, or, or, maybe they want to become um, Oh god, what is, what’s that phrase? Digital nomads? You know where they travel the world? Oh yes, yes, I see that thing on the phone. Um, yeah, no. No? No traveling the world. Anytime soon, anyway. I think it’d be a little difficult for Chanel to run the bakery digitally, Shaq.

Oh, true. Yeah, that really wouldn’t work. Mm hmm. And as for our living situation, honestly, we haven’t even had a chance to talk about it. I mean, we’ve been so preoccupied. With Paulina’s health issues. I mean, honestly, Chanel hasn’t even left the hospital since the wedding. Other than a quick shower and she’s gone out to the parking lot to get a breath of fresh air.

Yeah, well, obviously, you, you have a lot going on. And if you two do change your mind about the living situation, even just temporarily, just say the word and we’ll have a space prepared for you. Thank you. I appreciate that. But, I have a feeling we’re gonna want a place of our own. I understand the thought.

And congratulations again. Thanks, Dad. I love you, son. I love you, too.

Um, now, if it’s okay with you guys, can I go see Holly? Yes, yes, of course. I’m sure she would love a visitor. There’s no way that either one of us would compromise Lucas. First of all, he was Abigail’s uncle. Why would I put my own family at risk? I don’t know, Mr. DiMera. But all I know is that some people don’t view family the way most of us do.

Detective Hunter, surely you can see that it doesn’t make any sense for us to betray Lucas Horton. Especially when he provided us valuable information in the hopes of thwarting the drug trade in Salem. Yeah, I mean, what purpose would it serve? Um, I don’t know, that’s why we’re having this little chat right now.

So let’s go back to the interview, okay? How did you contact Mr. Horton? We didn’t, he called us. Who did he call, specifically? Me.

Okay, well, who was present when you took Mr. Horton’s call? It was only me and, and Everett when we got the call at the office. Who did you tell about the call? Like I said, only Everett. And I only found out who we were going to meet once we were actually leaving for the pub. I can assure you, Detective Hunter, that Everett and I were the only two people that knew about Lucas location.

Let’s get back to the call from Mr. Horton. You say you were in the office, Mr. DiMera? Was anyone else aside from this man in the office with you? Was it possible that maybe somebody overheard you, like a janitor, delivery guy? No. No, everybody had gone home for the night. You sure about that? Mr. Stein? Lynch.

Okay, well forgive me, but your word really doesn’t mean much to me now. Okay, look, I really don’t understand why you’re being so hostile. Here, alright, so, let me repeat. The office was empty when I got the call from Lucas. Except for me, Everett, and some, some, some wheat drip coffee. We left, no one followed us.

No one knew where we were going. We didn’t tell anyone where we were going. Okay, we never compromised the source. It just, it wouldn’t happen. So you say. And yet, right after you saw Lucas at the Brady Pub, you paid Clyde Weston a visit at Statesville. Care to explain?

No. Oh, Kayla, Kayla. Thank you. Thank you for everything you’re doing. And everything you’ve done. Well, there are no thanks necessary. It’s my job. And I care about all of you so much. So how are you doing? Well, moment to moment. Oh, and, and thank you. Uh, I downloaded that mindfulness app that you recommended.

Great. Well, I hope it’s helpful. Chanel, how are you doing? Oh, I, I’m, I’m good. I’m, I’m fine. I’m just I’m grateful that Mama has so many amazing people in her life. Well, she is lucky to have a devoted daughter like you. Well, how is she doing, Kayla? Well, her stats are just as expected. Okay, so she’s getting better then?

She’s gonna make a full recovery? Well, there is something that I’d like to talk to the two of you about. Some good news and some not so good news.

Why don’t we start with the good news? That’s what I thought. Well, as you both know, the thyroidectomy was a success. And based on all of the follow up tests and the lab samples, etc., Paulina’s recovery from surgery is progressing just as we had hoped. So, the surgery wasn’t the cause of the heart attack?

No, it was not. And, um, in regards to the heart attack, we are so lucky that your mother was here so that we could do an angioplasty immediately and put the stent in place. But even so, after a heart attack, there is damage to the heart when it has lost its blood supply. And as it heals, it can form scar tissue.

So that’s a bad thing? Well, scar tissue does not constrict or pump blood as efficiently as healthy heart tissue. So, what, what does all that mean? Well, basically it means that Pauline is going to have a long road to recovery. I’m going to set her up with cardiac rehab today. But even so, that, that may not be enough.

What do you mean not enough? Well, why don’t we wait and see how the rehab goes. Given the degree of damage and scar tissue in Paulina’s case, she may need a heart transplant.

What’s going on here?

Hey, Holly.

We missed you around here, kiddo.

Hasn’t been the same without you. Personally, I missed the, um, That, uh, mouth watering smell of those macaroons Chef was always making for you. Just, uh, coming in the door. You know, seeing you with your sketchbook out. You know, your headphones on, mouthing the words to some Adele song. It’s all in the zone.

So peaceful.

Hey, you know, I Just remembered that we are way past due for that, uh, fencing lesson. Hmm? We gotta get that next one in.

I miss you so much, Holly.

And things are, um, A little hectic right now. But I’m gonna be back to visit you soon. Real soon. I promise.

Please, go ahead. Uh, yes, uh, Chad and I did go to see Clyde Weston, but not because we are co conspirators in some intricate murder plot. Uh, we wanted to talk to him because we were doing an article. We are journalists. Right. The article that was, oh, oh yes, uh, the one that was going to implicate Mr. Clyde Weston as the ringleader of the Salem drug trade.

Hello, Mr. Nixon. Oh, yes, it’s Woodward and Bernstein calling from the Post. How are you? Okay, um, whatever that was. Listen, the only thing that we wanted to do was write a comprehensive article with a diversity of voices and viewpoints. So we went to confirm some facts. We were hoping Clyde was willing to talk, but let me ask you something, Detective Hunter.

Do you really think that I would have the slightest desire to be in the same room as the man who murdered my wife? The only thing I want for that son of a bitch is pain and sorrow. I get that. I understand that your history with Clyde Weston is very tragic. For that, I am sorry that I have to ask. It’s fine.

You’re doing your job, I guess. What about you? What’s your connection to Clyde Weston? Matter of fact, it’s hard to really tell who you have a connection with nowadays. Mr. Stein? The name is Lynch, and no, I don’t have any connection with Clyde Weston, for which I am grateful, given that he is a homicidal maniac.

Yeah, well, see, you spoke with Clyde Weston, and then you visited him. And then afterwards, Lucas Horton’s safe house was compromised. Yes, and as I think we’ve made clear many times, not by us.

Well, as you might guess, your word means absolutely nothing to me. Nothing. So I’m gonna sit here, patiently, calmly, until one of you tells me something that I can actually believe.

I, uh, I hope she heard all that stuff. I was telling her about how much we miss her. I’m sure she did. You know, I read that when you talk to someone you love and touch them when they’re in a coma, it helps their recovery. Yeah. I can’t help but, but think that if I had just talked to her more, before, This happened, you know, or listened better.

I, I mean, I, I knew she had this, this crush that Johnny, Johnny, stop. Listen, what you did or, or did not do, it, it didn’t cause any of this. Of course not. The only one to blame here is Tate Black. Alright, EJ. Please.

For Holly’s sake, no, no negative talk, okay? When we’re around her, let’s just talk about how much we love her and how much we need her to come back to us.

Mama, you’re late. Barely. How are you feeling, Paulina? I feel like I was hit by a freight train. Well, that’s to be expected. Enough about me. How are you, my darling daughter? Oh, I, I’m doing good. How’s married life treating you? The first few hours have been perfect. Yeah, everything except for honeymooning at the hospital, right?

No, we are fine with that. Okay? We just want to be close to you.

Yeah, you should get your mom some ice chips, okay? I love you, Mama. I love you too, baby girl.

I want to give you two a little time to think. I’ll circle back, alright? Thank you, Kim. Yeah. Well You gave us quite a scare there, Miss Paulina. Sorry about that. You know, you can’t leave us now. Oh. No. Especially now that we just got back together again. Listen to me. Nobody’s leaving anybody. Oh, I love you to the moon and back, Abrahamcock.

What plan I’m doing that for? Very long time.

I’m going to ask you both to stay here while I make a couple of phone calls.

I had no idea someone came after Lucas. Yeah, I know. And on the same night that all sorts of other hell was breaking loose. It’s, it’s a little suspicious, no? Why the hell is Jada pointing the finger at us? More importantly, why is she coming after you so hard? Calling you by the wrong name, giving you dirty looks.

It’s like she’s relishing it. You know, the idea of taking you down. Yeah, um, There’s something I need to tell you, Chad.

So, how does it feel to be a married man again? It feels terrific. Um, yeah, Chanel is, you know, Chanel’s a catch. I’m a lucky guy. Oh, well, Chanel is a lucky girl. Thank you. Mm hmm. Well, I had better get up and get changed and head back to the hospital, but it was really great to visit with Holly and with you.

Nicole, I know this guy right here has really missed you. Well, I’ve missed you both very much. And please, son, if there’s anything you need day or night, let us know. And we will be praying for Apollina. Thank you. I mean, I know that you have a full plate yourself, so Hey. You’re my son, and I’m here for you no matter what.

Love you. Love you, too.

So, what do you need, my love? You need a pillow? Or a blanket? No, I need What I need Abraham, I need you to listen to me. Just sit down. Sit down. Sit down and listen to me. I need to say a couple of things to you before I close my eyes again. I need you to promise me something. Oh, come on, sweetheart. You know, you, you, you just don’t, I need you to promise me that you’ll take care of my girls.

I need you to promise that no matter what happens, that you’ll, you’ll be there for them. Of course I will. Of course. No, promise me now. Promise me, Abraham. Sweetheart, I promise. But I need you to listen to me. I need you to listen to me, Paulina Carver. Now you’re going to be there for your girls. And you’re going to be there for their children as well.

And I am going to be there right by your side. And that’s a promise that I make.

So, what you’re telling me is your name is not actually Everett Lynch. I’m telling you that I apparently have gone by another name in the past. It doesn’t make any sense, Chad. Honestly, um, but the fact is that there There are things that I, that I don’t remember from before the accident. Yeah, but, but see you You remembered Stephanie, yeah?

And, um, you, you remembered how crazy you were about her. You remembered, you remembered her enough to track her down to Salem and worm your way back into her life. Worm? Yes, I, I, I remembered Stephanie. I remembered how much I loved her. Yes. Okay. That’s what you’re talking about. Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m talking about.

But, but, but hold, just cause, hold on a sec, cause my mind Um, is, is, uh, spinning a little bit. So you, so you, you remembered Stephanie, but you didn’t remember your wife. Okay, I was, I was never married! I was never married! At least, I don’t

I don’t recall ever having been married. Besides which, Jade and Bobby, you know, they got divorced. Jade and Bobby. Bobby. Like Bobby Stein, that’s why she kept calling you Mr. Stein. Yes. Yeah. She’s obviously very angry. Yeah! No, I wonder why! You know what? I don’t believe a word that you say. You’ve been lying since you came to Salem.

Whatever, Everett, Bobby, whatever the hell your name is. Everett Lynch. Yeah, okay, Bobby, Bobby. My name is Everett Lynch. Okay, whatever, Bobby. Listen, okay, how did Stephanie react to this, huh? How does she react to the fact that the guy that ghosted her in Seattle, who broke her heart, tracked her down, just to break her heart again?

Huh? Stephanie and I are dealing with this on our own, okay? I love her, and she knows that. You love her? Yes. You love her? Yes. We don’t even know who you really are!

You know, and I, and I, and I shouldn’t know because, you never respected my relationship with her, okay? You knew her and I were involved. And you just, you just happily snaked your way in there and ruined it for us. You did that all on your own, pal. What’d you just say to me? Don’t blame me for your breakup with Stephanie!

You did that on your own. You told her that you weren’t ready for a commitment or whatever the hell you said because you were still grieving your late wife. Which, by the way, I think you still are. Shut up. Don’t blame your breakup on me. Shut up! What I needed was some time, okay? And she made her decision.

It is what it is. But what Stephanie didn’t need was her psychopath ex boyfriend infiltrating back in, making her think that he was willing to commit, when really, he’s a fraud. What is going on here? Uh Not him, just, uh, you know, your friend Bobby and I here. We’re having a talk. Okay, so I guess this turned into story time while I was gone.

Yeah, look, um, Whatever he put you through, I’m sorry. Listen, for what it’s worth, I’m glad that you know the truth about your colleague. Yeah, um,

You make me sick. Are we done here? Yes. For now. But a word of advice to both of you. Don’t leave town. Salem’s my home. I’m not going anywhere.

Belle! How are you doing? Oh, uh, As well as can be expected. It’s kinda hard not to worry. I know. But your mother is one of the toughest women I know. She’s gonna pull through this. And she raised a very strong daughter. I’ll see you.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey. I’m so glad you’re here. Hey, what’s going on? It’s Mama. She’s not doing too well. And her heart attack, they said that it caused some damage to her heart muscles. And now she may need a heart transplant. Oh, Johnny. I can’t lose her. Okay. Hey, hey, hey. You won’t. You won’t. Hey, hey. Look at me.

Whatever Paulina has to go through, she’s got our support. Okay, she’s got Abe’s support. Look, I was just looking, I saw on the news recently about heart transplants, how successful they are. I mean, people can live for years, years, after a heart transplant. Okay. It’s Eli. What do I say? How do I tell him? All I

can say to you, Detective Hunter,

is I’m sorry that I don’t remember us. Being together.

Your apologies mean nothing to me. So you can stop saying how sorry you are. I just wish What? That I would stop going back. You know, just remembering when we first met. When it was fun and romantic. You know, I met you at the farmer’s market. You came up to me with that stupid, charming smile and you asked me if you should wash prepped tomatoes before you ate them.

Not the worst line in the world. Listen, Jada, I am genuinely Trying to make things right. Okay, I’m, I’m seeing a therapist. Dr. Evans, um, We’re doing this intensive, um, I think it’s called Adaptive Memory Recovery. Anyway, the point is, I want to remember. Alright, I am, I’m trying.

All I want to do is forget. I want to forget I ever met you. I want to forget the good. Definitely the bad. I want to forget it all.

So let’s hope that one of us gets what we want.

Elwin, I was serious. What I said earlier. Don’t even think about leaving Salem.

My dear sweet Abraham. What would I do without you? Well, you never have to find out.

How you feeling, Mama? Oh, better now that the newlyweds are here. Well, the newlyweds have some good news. Oh, you two planned your honeymoon? Oh, well, you know, you know, you need to give me the names of the hotels, and the, I’m going to need the flight numbers, and you need to, oh, you need to talk to my travel aid, you know.

No, no, no, no, no, Mama, Mama, we have not planned our honeymoon yet. But, Eli just called. And Lonnie’s been released. And they’ll be here tomorrow. Oh! Released! Oh! Oh! Praise the lord! Praise the lord! She’s coming home! Oh! Oh!

Can you believe it, honey? We’re home and I know you’re on your way back to us. I can feel it. And I can’t wait to see those big beautiful eyes and your happy smile. I’m so lucky to be your mama.

You make me a better person, sweetheart. You’ve made such progress, honey. And that’s because you have that fighting spirit just like your mom. And so we know that very soon you’ll awake, and we will surely embarrass you with all the affection and attention. Because we’ll be just thrilled to have our precious Holly back.

Goodnight,

my love. Oh,

I’m sorry, ma’am. Ma’am? Oh, yeah, Kristen, huh? Yeah, it’s Kristen. I did not know that was you. I’m sorry. Oh, well, now that you do, maybe you could call me. Yes, absolutely. Uh, my head was someplace else. Anyway, it was good to run into you. Yeah, literally. Uh, so tell me, uh, what’s got you so hyper focused? Uh, it’s nothing.

Yeah, let me guess. Does it have to do with one Jeannie Teresa Donovan? No kidding? Is that really her name? Oh my god, you guys are that close, huh? I mean, we were until recently. She just moved out. Back with Brady. Excuse me? Yeah, she moved back out of the townhouse. With Brady. Ah. A little cream and two sugars, right?

Thank you. Yes. Thank you for letting me shack up here, again. Well, Tate’s room is just sitting there empty anyway. You know what makes me feel close to him? Just being in his room. Especially after that nightmare visit. You know, they say that every teenage boy at one point in time just tells his parents that he hates them.

You know, that’s, that’s what I keep telling myself anyway. Do you think it was just a rant, like pent up frustrations? I think he’s got a reason to be frustrated, right? Yeah, but not to take it out on us.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Okay. We should have the CT results back shortly. How’s the headache? It’s gone. The dizziness? The lightheadedness? I feel totally fine now. Great. Oh, sorry. Excuse me. Uh, I’ve got an emergency. I’ve got to run. But just sit tight and somebody will come in and relieve me, okay? Thanks, Mom. Absolutely. Thanks, Dr.

Johnson. Sure, I’m just glad you’re feeling better. You scared me, Everett. Yeah, I scared myself.

I just, I wish to hell I knew what was going on with me. Whatever it is, I’m sure my mom will figure it out. How

long do you think we’ve been in here? It’s hard to tell without phones or windows, and of course my watch is dead, so I’d say a day or two. It feels like a lot longer than that. Justin, I feel like, like it’s getting smaller in here, like, like the walls are closing in. You feel that too, right? No, not really.

Honey, are you okay? I’m I don’t know, I I’m sorry. Maybe you should sit back down for a minute. No, I’m worse off like I thought I was going to throw up. Hey, hey. I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe. Harris. Harris, my man. Can you open your eyes for me?

Hey. Hey. Welcome back, buddy. Hey. Welcome back.

Nurse, excuse me. Um, what’s happening? Detective Michaels is responsive. He’s definitely waking up. Oh, thank God. Thank God. Oh, God, you know, I, I finally, I finally talked Rafe into letting me go in and talk to him. And then when I was in there, he just, he opened his eyes and then of course I told the nurse and then they, they, they kicked me out, but, oh my God, Stephen, what?

I bet that Harris is going to have a great idea as to where we could find Tripp. Paris waking up could be the answer to all of our prayers. No. No?

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

Windy, Windy, Windy. Hey, I’m right, I’m right here. just try to take nice and deep, slow breaths with me, okay? Like, hey, look at me in the eyes, look at me in the eyes. Focus on, it’s good to focus on something. I know, I know. Look at me in the eyes. It’s good to focus on something. There you go, good. Alright, now breathe in and out.

Nice and slow. There you go, there you go. In. Out, okay. Breathe with me. In. And now, there you go, now is that better? Okay, okay, keep breathing, keep breathing. Oh. Okay, I think it’s working. You’re going to be okay. You’re going to be okay. I’m right here. I’m right here for you. I’m not going anywhere. Okay? All right, this is all gonna be over soon.

It’s gotta be. Hello, it’s Stephanie. Marlena, hi. This is Everett Lynch. Everett, this is Dr. Marlena Evans. Nice to meet you, Dr. Evans. Nice to meet you, too, Everett. Dr. Johnson has asked me to take over your case. And, of course, she will continue conferring with me on everything that’s changing. Okay. I was given your CAT scan.

There is evidence of traumatic brain injury. Okay. Yeah. I, I’d like to, uh, hear what’s been happening with you. So we’ll have some idea how to treat you. Did you just say that it’s not good that Harris is waking up? What the hell, Stefan? You What are you

Well, did you say it or not? No, I I mean, yes, I did say it, but I was more thinking about Clyde and how he’s gonna react when he finds out that Harris is awake. He’s obviously not gonna be happy. Okay, well, screw Clyde, okay? Seriously, Stefan. Why the hell should I worry about how, how Clyde is gonna take Harris coming out of his coma?

And why the hell should you?

Hey. Kayla. So you were here when Harris opened his eyes? Yeah, I was. And, um, he looked at me for a while. But he didn’t say anything? No. Let me see. Okay. Uh, Harris. Harris. Can you open your eyes for me?

There you go. There you go. Do you know who I am? Kayla. That’s right. I am. And you, Detective Michaels. Are back. Thank God. Where

am I? What’s going on? You’re in the hospital. You are safe. And you’re in good hands.

What happened? You don’t remember?

You were shocked, and you’ve been in a coma quite some time. Gave us all quite a scare. God, what is

taking so long? Kayla’s probably got a hundred tests she’s gotta run. Yeah, well surely someone could come out and tell us what’s happening. They got protocols. Look, I gotta get going, okay? So why don’t you just text me if you hear anything. Okay, are you kidding? Don’t leave. Yeah, don’t leave. How about if nobody goes anywhere?

Good, your breathing is stabilized. How do you feel? Mostly tired. A little woozy. Definitely better, though. What happened to me? Well, I think you had a panic attack. Have you ever dealt with claustrophobia before? Not that I remember nothing like this, that’s for sure.

Thank you for talking me down. Anytime.

You remember when I was in total claustrophobic panic mode? And you told me that you weren’t going anywhere. I’m not. Yeah. You kind of don’t have a choice. It’s true. Yeah, but even if I did have a choice, there’s no place I’d rather be than just wherever you are. Indeed.

Uh, well, Stephanie and I and Grace. We were, we were at the Brady Pub waiting for, um, Jada to arrive. Yeah, and I suggested that we have a double date with Jada and Rafe. So that they could meet Everett. Um, Jada. So that Jada could Anyway, uh, Rafe already had. Well, she was, she was later than, than the three of us.

And, um, when she came in and she saw me, Uh, she just, uh, just totally lost it, you know. Um, she was very angry. Enraged, you might say. Uh, you know, she thought that I was her ex husband. She accused me of lying, um, went on about how I, How I cheated on her and, and nothing that I said could convince her that I, that I wasn’t her ex.

Jada and I, we grew up together. Our parents were all friends. And we just recently started getting close. So she told me about her ex. How she’d been terribly hurt by him. She’d found out that he cheated on her. They got in a really big fight, apparently. And after she served him with divorce papers. He disappeared.

Mm hmm. So when she became so angry, how did you react? When she was very confrontational, as I said, and, of course, you know, I was, I was totally thrown. Um, I was upset. Wow. But it’s funny, as, as she was hurling these insults at me, and, and telling me what a horrible, deceitful person that I was, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her, you know?

And then, and then she, she showed up. At my, at my door with a, um, A, uh, a fingerprint scanner. Oh. And did that confirm that you were Robert Stein?

I mean, I don’t,

I don’t know how That could be possible, you know, I mean I feel like, uh, I feel like I’m losing my mind. Or maybe I’ve, I’ve already lost it, I don’t know. I swear to you, my name is Everett Lynch, I don’t even know who Robert Stein is.

Stephanie, you said that you and Everett were in a relationship several years ago? Yes, when we were both living in Seattle. And that ended. Why was that?

Everett left one day to go to work and didn’t come back. I thought he’d disappeared on me, ghosted me. But it turns out he was in an accident. I see. A very serious accident, which left him in a coma. I didn’t know that. Until a few months ago, when he came to Salem and found me.

So you have no memory of ever being Bobby Stein? No. Absolutely not. And I don’t ever recall being married. And, uh,

the woman, I don’t ever remember Dr. Evans, how is it possible that Everett remembers some things but not others? He remembers me, and his life as Everett Lynch, but not his ex wife. Well, that is possible in some cases. I mean, it’s possible that Everett had dissociative amnesia. Or traumatic amnesia. Those things happen with PTSD.

What, from the, from the accident? Yes. So it really is possible that, after the accident, Everett’s brain turned off the memories of being Robert Stein? Yes, that’s possible.

I mean, uh, just when I thought I was getting my life back together with the woman that I love. Just when I thought that the nightmare Of that accident of being trapped in an unconscious state for a year, being separated from Stephanie, just when I thought all of that was behind me and I could finally start living the life that I’ve always wanted to live.

Then I find out

Go on. I mean, is it possible? Could it be true that, that, that I’m not who I thought I was? That I’m, that I’m someone who, who cheated on his wife? Who lied to her? Was, was cruel to her? Could it be true that That I Am Bobby Stein?

Well, it’s probably pretty late. I don’t think I’ll be able to go to sleep. What about you? Definitely not. I guess we could swap stories from the past. What kind of stories? Anything. You know, you haven’t really shared that much of your childhood with me. There’s not much to tell. I mean, I, I was, I was born in Hong Kong, as you know.

And then I lived, I lived there for about six years. And then we moved to India for my father’s business. What was that like? Uh, you know, it was a tough adjustment at first. But I grew to love it. I mean, you know, I was a tomboy back then, and I was pretty athletic, and I preferred hanging out with the guys.

Well, you know, we can be pretty fun, us guys. Yeah, I definitely thought so at the time.

And then there was this one guy, Samir. He ended up being my best friend. And when we went rock climbing, and then he taught me how to skateboard. He was an amazing skateboarder. No, I’m serious. Like, he did all sorts of tricks. Like the dolphin flip and the double kickflip. Wow, so was Samir your first crush by chance?

Uh, I was nine, Tripp. Wow, an older man. He was older, yeah, but That was, anyway, that was a long time ago and far away, so Now it’s your turn to tell me more about your childhood. Let me, uh, let me save that for another time. It’s mostly kind of sad, and I think right now we should really stick to the light hearted stuff, you know?

Okay. Um, then how about you tell me a funny story? From like med school days or whatever. Hmm, okay, funny. Okay, med school. Um Okay, I got one. Okay. I was in my second year of med school. I was doing my hospital rotations. Uh huh. And I asked this patient who was complaining about dizziness if she had ever been diagnosed with vertigo.

Her daughter immediately chimed in right away and was like, no, no, no, no, no. She’s a Libra. She was joking, right? No, no, no. She was dead serious. Oh, yeah. Oh, and this, uh, one time This patient came in and she had good news and bad news. Okay. Yeah, and she said, okay. The wonderful medicine that works for my ears, you have no idea.

My ears are clear now. And I said, oh, that’s great. That’s fantastic. Yeah. She said, yeah, but they tasted terrible. Oh, no. Yeah. Oh. She actually swallowed her own eardrops. Yeah, but she felt better, so I mean, whatever. Oh! Oh, and this happened recently, this, uh, uh, I was examining this patient, this sweet, sweet elderly woman who was kind of flirting with me.

Right. And, uh, I lean in to check her eyes. And she looks at me, and she says, very coyly, she says, You look like my third husband. And I said, Wow, third? Okay, well, how many have you had? She said, Two. Wow. Yeah. I love that. I love you. I love you so much. Rafe, um, what’s going on with Harris? Well, he opened his eyes.

And, uh, Kayla’s in there with him now. Okay, look, Ava, I’m sorry, but I really gotta get back to work. Okay, wait, no, no, no. I texted with Elliot. Everything is fine at the bistro. Yeah, I think it’s a good idea that you both stick around, in case Harris has anything to say. Hey. Hey, Caleb. How is he? Well, he’s awake.

He’s talking. His vitals are good. He’s talking. Stefan, he’s talking. Can I see him? Yes, but please keep it short. Yeah, will do. Okay, thank you.

It’s good to have you back, man. Thanks. It’s good to be back. Yeah. Please tell me we got Clyde. No. I wish I could say that. But we’re close. I’ll leave you two alone. Just push the call button if you need anything. Thank you. Can, can you open the blinds for me, please? Oh, absolutely.

You gonna fill me in on what happened? Well, I promised Kayla that I wouldn’t wear you out, so Come on, Rafe, please. Alright, fine. I’ll give you the short version.

So.

Back to us.

Okay. Alright, so I have regaled you with numerous late night school stories. So now it is your turn. My turn? Okay. Uh, let’s see. Actually, I I can’t really think of anything right now, I’m sorry. No, no, that’s, that’s okay. It’s just, I’m trying so hard to be tough about this. You know, to be brave.

But I’m not really succeeding at the moment. I’m scared.

Aren’t you? No. No, I’m not. I’m, uh, I’m angry is what I am. Outraged, actually. No, no. I’m not enjoying our accommodations, obviously. But, uh, no, I, I know that we’re gonna be okay. I know that we’re going to be rescued, and we’re going to be found very soon, okay? And, I’m so grateful that if I am stuck in a beer tank, at least I’m with the person that I love most as well.

I’m grateful for that too. And I’m also grateful that even though you really are scared, You’re acting all brave and tough for me. Okay, yeah, sort of an act, but, uh, what’s the expression, you know, fake it till you make it, right? Right. Right. Well, you’re pretty good at that. I’m impressed. So, you want to give me any tips?

Well, smiling like you are right now, it’s a good start.

At this point, we’re just gathering information. So let’s not get ahead of ourselves with conjecture. I understand. So what’s the next step? Well, I’d like to get a release for you to sign so I can get your medical records from Seattle. Of course. Will you be requesting records for Everett Lynch or Robert Stein?

I think both, if that’s alright with you. Yeah, sure. Okay. Right back.

I don’t know what’s going on here, Stephanie, but I, I swear to you, Robert Stein, he is a stranger to me.

I don’t know what to believe right now. Well, believe this. I love you. I would never hurt you.

This is a lot for both of us to process. Right now I think it’s best that we just wait and see what the doctors say.

And what if, um, what if, what if something’s terribly wrong? You know, like, physically, I mean, what if, um, what if I have like a brain tumor? You just had a CAT scan. They would have found if you had a brain tumor. Let’s not borrow trouble, okay? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.

All I know is, um,

I don’t know if, if I can I’ll totally be alone right now.

You won’t be. I promise I’ll be there for you. What do

you think Harris is saying to him? Not much from what I can tell. Looks like Rafe’s doing most of the talking. Yeah, come on Rafe. I need to know what happened with Clyde. Yeah, I’m gonna fill you in on all that. First, we need to talk about what happened to you. Kayla said, I was shot. Yeah. I’m assuming you know something about that.

I do. Yeah. Um, it happened at the bistro loading dock. Bistro.

Okay, Kayla didn’t mention that. Alright, well, we were there to meet someone, apparently. We need to find out who that someone was.

Harris, you don’t know who did this to you, you don’t know who shot you.

Thank you. Now that you have assigned their releases, I can begin to familiarize myself with your information. Right. All right. Do you have old friends or, or family members who might be able to fill in some of the blanks for us? Uh, my old editor and, uh, a reporter buddy I, I used to hang out with in Seattle.

Good. And also, when you’re talking to them, they might trigger something, uh, in you, some memory you’d forgotten. I mean, if that happens, please. Call my office at once. Will do. And please do stop by and make a follow up appointment. I think we should start sessions as soon as possible. Oh. You’re a psychiatrist.

Yes. And I’m also going to contact a neurologist. I think it’s important that we have as much information, psychological again, neurologically, as we can about your case, in order to Give you the best diagnosis. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I, I, um, I understand. And, in your experience, I know you can’t say definitively, but, uh, when you’ve dealt with this sort of an issue, do you think it’s possible that I’ll remember those parts of my life that my, my brain seems to have completely deleted?

I can’t guarantee that. But of course, it’s what we’re all hoping for, isn’t it?

So this, baking it till you make it, is um, actually working better than I thought it would. And I’m gonna sound like a really nerdy doctor here, but the reason is because when you smile, your brain releases these tiny molecules called neuropeptides, and they, uh, help fight off stress. And then later on, other neurotransmitters like dopamine and endorphins and serotonin, they all come into play later on.

Okay. Okay. So in layman’s terms, smiling can trick you into feeling happier. Right. And on an even happier note, at least we know people are probably looking for us by now. Since I missed my hospital shift. Yeah, and since I’ve missed at least one work day at the police station. Yeah, and our mom is probably going crazy with worry.

She’s probably having my dad work his ass off trying to find us. But how would people know to look for us here? Yeah, that, I, uh, I don’t know. Pretty desolate area. Yeah, the old brewery by the airport. Tripp, it seems the only way we’re going to get out of here is if we find a way out ourselves. I know, but we’ve already tried to escape out of all the obvious ways we’re going to think outside the box.

Yeah, we are. And with big smiles on our faces, right? Right. Because we believe we can do this. Because we are clever, and resourceful, and you Are incredibly strong, and valiant, and fearless, and, and intrepid. How am I doing? You’re doing great, I don’t even think you’re faking it anymore. Actually, I’m not. No, I’m feeling genuinely positive right now.

Okay, so what we need is a strategy. Like a brilliant one. Like MacGyver? Yeah. Yeah? Yeah. Alright, what would MacGyver do? Yeah, Ava’s

been hanging around here pretty much ever since this happened to you. I finally let her in to see you. Before you opened your eyes. What about Stefan? Oh yeah, he’s been here too. As you can see. Well, I told them both to hang out. At least until I got your statement. He must be questioning him about the night he was shot.

Yeah, he probably is. Look, Ava, as much as I’d like to stay here and support you, I really need to get going. Again with Stefan? What is with the rush to leave? Because I got a lot going on, okay? Standing around here in this hospital clueling my thumbs when I got a million things to do is making me kind of nuts.

Yeah, I have noticed. You’ve had one foot out the door ever since you showed up here, even though Rafe told us to stay put. Come on. Stefan, talk to me. What’s got you so restless? Ava, it’s just It’s just what?

It’s Clyde. He made me.

Oh, hey, Ronnie. Hey, Emily. How’s Harris? Well, he’s out of his coma. Oh, thank heaven. Yeah, yeah. I mean, he’s still weak, of course, but we expect a full recovery. I’m so pleased. Yeah. Hey, listen, I just wanted to thank you for jumping in with Everett. It was my pleasure. Yeah, I mean, I was going to call you in on the case anyway as soon as I finished the initial evaluation.

But then, uh, you know, Harris waking up, everything just proceeded so quickly. Yeah. Well, I’m glad I was available. Yeah. But what did you think? Oh, I, gosh, I’d have to have a lot more information before I could make a reasonable diagnosis. Right, of course. But the CT scan did confirm about the previous TBI.

But, you know, I scanned the whole thing and I just don’t see any explanation for the memory loss. I don’t either. Well, do you think there’s a chance that he doesn’t have amnesia? That he could be faking it?

You’re awfully quiet.

Just taking everything in. It’s all either of us can do right now. Until we find out the truth about who you really are and what happened to you.

Jada deserves answers too.

Hello? Yes, this is C. Now? Uh, yeah, I’ll be there as soon as I can.

That was the police. They, uh, They want me to come down to the station right away.

My god, you’re back. Can you get this out of here? Shut up and listen. I’m calling the shots here. Johnson, you’re gonna record a little message for mommy. Yeah, what if I don’t?

The girl has no value to us. You know that, right? Yeah, I’ll do whatever you want. Take this. It’s all set to record. You’re gonna read exactly what’s written on the piece of paper in that envelope. And no funny business, Johnson. You’re gonna read exactly what is written. Not one word more, or one word less.

Got it. Rafe, um,

how’s Harris? What’s going on? He’s pretty sore. He’s in a fair amount of pain. I didn’t want to tire him out, but I did ask him about the shooting. And? And he Has no idea who shot him. I told him there’s evidence that points to Xander, but He couldn’t confirm it. So In short, he has no idea who tried to kill him.

THIS STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING!

OK, Lucas is safe now.

We thought he was safe here.

Katie, when we left Lucas, he told you– very emphatically, in fact– that he was feeling strong and positive and didn’t want you worrying about it. So how about you focus on you and me right now, OK? Especially since…

[gasps] Oh, Valentine’s Day. It totally slipped my mind.

Yeah, and that is totally understandable. Fortunately, it didn’t slip mine.

[romantic music]

[jazzy music playing]

---

Oh, God.

[scoffs] Come on. Come on. Where are you?

[sighs]

[sighs]

---

Oh. Sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb you.

That’s OK. Is–is Dad asleep?

Yes. And we’ll–we’ll see how long he stays asleep.

I understand he’s been dealing with some insomnia.

Yeah, and some nightmares as well.

I–yeah, I don’t feel like he’s been himself lately. He’s been irritable and a little on edge. But true to form, he–he insists that he’s fine.

Yeah. Kind of like father, like son.

[dramatic music]

OK.

[sighs]

---

[sighs]

I know you’ve got a lot going on. I know you’re very worried about Tate. This whole situation is… heartbreaking.

---

And I don’t want to– I don’t want to intrude, but I should tell you that I’m a little concerned about you as well.

---

Should I be?

---

Yeah. Yeah, you should be.

---

[sighs] Come on, come on, come on. Enough with the damn music! Yes, hello?

What are you doing?

You don’t have any rooms? You have none? Thank you for nothing! God.

Who are you calling?

The Salem Inn, not that it’s any of your business. With the geocache event and the stupid Cupid celebrations, they’re fully booked.

OK. All right. This is crazy, Theresa, seriously. Like, you don’t have to leave.

Oh, really? Why the hell would I stay here?

Stop.

I don’t want to stay here with somebody who doesn’t want me.

[sighs]

---

[sighs] Thanks for taking me home. It’s not like you needed to, though.

Yeah, I did need to, because you haven’t been eating or sleeping, so you know what? You’re gonna go in there, get in that bed. You’re not gonna come out for a while.

[scoffs] Yeah, not gonna do that. I am gonna go take a shower, though, a shot of espresso. And then I’m heading back to the hospital.

I can’t let you do that.

What are you talking about?

Ava, you can’t be wringing your hands over Harris. You need to stay away from the hospital, and stay away from him.

---

[soft orchestration] announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “Days of Our Lives.”

---

[scoffs] Stay away from Harris? Well, why the hell would I do that?

Ava, think about it. You and I, we’re supposed to be a thing, remember? So how do you think Clyde’s gonna react if he finds out you’ve been camping out at the hospital? It’s not gonna be good for you or me or Harris.

OK! All right.

[sighs] You know what? Tripp is–he’s working the night shift tonight, so I’ll text him. He can be my eyes and ears.

[dramatic music]

[romantic music]

[gasps] Oh, Roman. Oh!

[chuckles] All right, well, it might seem a bit “been there, done that.” But that was a couple years ago, so…

Yes, and I remember it a couple of years ago. And I remember how touched I was by all of that.

[sighs] You know, this is wonderful. There’s no “been there, done that.” This is really wonderful, and I am so grateful that you’re my valentine.

Back at you, Katie. Back at you.

---

So the burning question is, why on Earth would you want to meet with me on Valentine’s night when you have a hunky husband, not to mention a beautiful baby boy? You’re calling me?

[jazzy music playing]

Yeah, I am.

[sighs] I have been totally sidelined by that baby, Melinda, either pushed away or ignored completely. And I am damn sick of it.

[sighs]

Look, I don’t–I don’t want to pressure you into talking about this.

No, it–it’s OK. I appreciate your concern. The truth is, I’m feeling a little– a little lost, a little lonely. I mean, Valentine’s Day, it–

[scoffs] It’s a nice romantic holiday for a lot of people. But for others, it can just amplify a lot of negative feelings. I’m glad it’s almost over.

[dramatic music]

I know that Kristen had promised to let you see Rachel for Valentine’s Day. Did she follow through with that?

Yes, she did. She did. I went over to the DiMera mausoleum and I brought a teddy bear– big teddy bear– balloons and candy and everything I could think of. But there stood Kristen, and what do you know? We got into one of our box-office, drag-out fights. And it escalated, and Rachel was right there. She witnessed most of it. And she–she screamed at us. She said, stop fighting. Stop screaming, Mom and Dad. Stop. And I’m like, this is my Valentine’s Day. This is my life. I lost Chloe. I–I have a little girl that’s traumatized that I don’t have custody of. And I have a Machiavellian, insane ex-wife. I mean–

[chuckling] I mean, you know… that’s my life.

[sniffles]

I’m sorry this is happening to you.

[sighs]

But Rachel is your daughter, and she loves you, and she will love you no matter– no matter what happens.

---

The thing is that… no matter what you’re going through with Kristen, you can’t fight in front of her. You just can’t do that.

I know. I know. I know. But damn it–damn it, Marlena. Every time I’m– I am resolved to– to take the high road with Kristen for the sake of my daughter and not expose her to the toxic relationship that is her mother and father, every single time, as soon as I get around that lunatic bitch, I lose it. And I–I–I– my resolve goes away. It just weakens and cracks, and I blow it. I blow it every time! Completely.

---

Theresa, can we please be reasonable, OK?

[laughing] Oh, I am being reasonable. Actually, this is the most reasonable thing that I can do.

Hey, I care about you a lot, Theresa, OK? I care about you a lot, and I think we can have a beautiful future together. I really do. But I went to a meeting for people whose loved ones are addicts, and I’m listening to all their feelings, and I’m just thinking, maybe we’re just moving a little too fast.

[sighs] OK. So–so you’re saying that I’m too much for you. Is that what you’re saying? Is that what they said to you in your little meeting, that you shouldn’t get involved with somebody who’s led a complex life? Or–or maybe don’t marry somebody who has lots of baggage, God forbid.

That’s not what I meant, and nobody said that, of course. I’m just saying– hey, I’m saying maybe we just need to slow it down a little bit, or slower. It doesn’t mean it’s harmful, OK? Listen, you have a child. You have a son. It’s not even just us.

A child? Come on, Alex. Tate is nearly an adult. Listen, why don’t you try doing one of two things here, OK? You can either tell a lie and just say that you have commitment problems, or tell the truth and just say you don’t want to be with me. So which one is it gonna be, huh?

---

Thank you.

OK.

[whooshing]

[both laugh]

[scoffs] Wow.

[laughs] It’s a joke.

[laughs] You!

I am sorry. You know, I just couldn’t help myself, all right? But I will deny it if you tell anybody I did this, but I have takeout from the Bistro in the warming drawer.

Ah. My lips are sealed. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for making me laugh, like you always do, when I need it the most. But more importantly, thank you, my love, for always making me feel loved, always making me feel safe.

Katie, you have my heart. Always will. You are everything to me.

[romantic music]

---

[jazzy music playing]

Cut the guy some slack, OK? He’s a new dad, and he’s obviously very nurturing. He’s just doing his best, you know?

Oh, not with me, he’s not.

Oh, come on. The guy is–he’s crazy about you, Sloan.

No, not anymore, not since Jude came into our lives. Since Jude came into the picture, he’s the main star of the movie. I’m like some background extra, you know? It’s like–actually, I’m not even in the damn movie.

[sighs]

---

Come on. Why aren’t you replying, Tripp?

[sighs] Maybe he’s in a dead zone.

[sighs] Stefan… what–what if something happens at the hospital and I’m not there, huh? Come on. And, Tripp, why are you not replying to me?

Hey, look at me.

[sighs]

It’s gonna be fine, all right? Why do you need to go to the hospital anyway? It’s not like Harris is gonna know you were there.

I’m gonna know that I was there.

[dramatic music] You have any idea what it feels like, knowing that Harris went to the loading dock because he thought I asked him to? He was there because of me, and then some bastard shot him in cold blood.

---

[sighs] Ava, it is not your fault.

Yeah? Well, it sure as hell feels like it is. Oh, and I swear– I swear on all that is holy, if I ever find out who did this to him, I will personally pump several live rounds into that son of a bitch’s heart.

---

Brady, you said that your– your resolve weakens when Kristen provokes you.

Mm.

I can–I can help you with it. I can help you strengthen your resolve.

Thank you.

[clears throat] Thank you, and I know. But just for right now– for right now, today, I really just want to focus on tomorrow, because I get to see my son. I haven’t seen him in weeks.

Yeah, that’s right. You and Theresa are going to go visit Tate.

Yeah, and I’m very relieved that we’re getting to do that. It’s just– Oh, no. I just dumped all my problems about my daughter on you. I’m not about to do the same thing concerning my son.

I love your children. They’re my grandchildren. And I love you. And talking about whatever you’re going through, whatever you’re concerned about, that is never a burden for me.

OK. So there were these letters that Tate wrote to Theresa and me, two separate letters. And in Theresa’s letters, he talked about how much he missed her. My letter was… very cold. It was almost businesslike. And I know it’s because my son resents that I haven’t been in his life. That’s why.

We all know why that is. We all know what happened. Tate knows it too.

---

The fact is, he’s feeling distressed right now.

Mm-hmm.

He’s feeling that he’s been treated unfairly, and he’s making you the scapegoat.

---

Yeah, that sums it up. That’s–that’s it.

I know that, because that’s what happened to Sami.

---

You remember. Sami blamed me for everything that went wrong, whether it was actually my fault, or not. But I let her do that, because I wanted to show her that I could be patient and understanding, the same as you want with Tate. And you know the expression. Having a child is wondrous. It’s letting your heart go walking around outside your body.

[chuckles] God, is that true.

[chuckles]

Wait. Wait. Marry me.

[dramatic music]

---

What did you just say?

I said, marry me. You want to get married? Fine, let’s do it.

Is this real? Was that a real proposal?

[sighs]

Yeah, I didn’t think so. You know what? Maybe next time, you can actually try dropping down to one knee, or I don’t know, maybe don’t say things you don’t mean, Alex.

All right. Theresa, just wait. Wait, wait, wait.

I’m not gonna wait. I’m not gonna wait. You know why? Because what’s worse than being hoodwinked by a diamond ring, and not being proposed to at all, is being proposed to out of guilt-slash-pity!

That’s not what I’m doing. That’s not what I’m do–

[sighs] Where are you gonna go?

Who cares? Why is that any of your concern anymore?

It’s my concern, Theresa, because you’re in recovery, and I don’t want to find out you’re just running around–

Oh, what, am I gonna go do drugs? Am I gonna call up my drug dealer and get really high?

[laughs] You know what? That is like, the saddest little thing. That’s not gonna happen from this tiny little debacle, OK? So how about you just have a nice life? Catch. Taking that with me.

Theresa.

See you.

Theresa.

[tense music]

---

Whoa. That steak was so tender. I mean, it was so well-cooked.

The Bistro does have one fine chef.

Mm-hmm. And I do have one fine husband. I know you’re going to protest this. I know you’re going to. But I feel absolutely terrible– I mean, really badly, that I didn’t get you anything.

Well, then stop feeling bad, ’cause this is a fact. Every single day I spend with you is a gift.

No.

[sighs] We really have been thrown many twists and turns throughout life, haven’t we? I mean, and it hasn’t been easy at all. But we always do seem to find our way back to each other, don’t we?

Always, my love. Always.

[romantic music]

---

I don’t mean to pontificate about child-rearing. I certainly have made my share of mistakes. But something about having adult children does give you a certain perspective.

Mm. A much wiser one, obviously. I’m grateful that you’re sharing it with me, especially since I have to see Tate tomorrow, and I– I really don’t want to screw it up with him. I mean, more than I already have.

Well, just show him a lot of respect, especially respect for his feelings. And be kind and be loving, that’s all.

[frantic knocking] Oh, my.

I’ll get that.

Please do.

[sighs]

Hey.

I know, I know, I know. I should have called or texted before just coming over here. But I just left Alex, and I have nowhere to go.

OK, OK.

I just figured that since we’re gonna go see Tate in the morning, I could just maybe– I can maybe sleep in Tate’s room tonight?

Of course you may.

Oh.

Oh, OK.

[phone ringing] That’s fine, that’s fine. Yeah. No, come in. I’ll–I’ll take you to Tate’s room.

Thank you.

[phone beeps] Bye-bye. Thank you so much, Marlena.

Hey, it’s Theresa. Leave a message.

[phone beeps]

Theresa, it’s me. I really hate how things just went down. If you could just call me and tell me where you’re staying, and let me know you’re OK.

[phone beeps]

[jazzy music]

I’m just scared, Melinda. I’m scared.

Of what?

You!

Me?

Yeah, you. Li and I were lovers, and if you hadn’t lured him into your trap, he’d still be with me, and very much alive!

I am gonna find out who did this, Stefan, not only because I love him, but because Harris is one of the best people that I have ever known. And if he doesn’t– I swear to God, I am gonna be more determined than ever to mow down this son of a bitch. Why aren’t you saying anything?

OK. Because I– I love a good revenge fantasy too, as much as anybody. Especially the gory ones. But Ava, the truth is, we may never know who shot Harris, especially if he–

Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t. Don’t you say it. Don’t you even think it.

[tense music]

---

No. Uh-uh.

[sighs]

Ava, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you.

Yeah. Yeah, well, you could tell that I was already pretty damn upset, right? And so what do you do? You just decide to add a little fuel to that fire and just make things worse, which you seem to be an expert at. So I’m gonna suggest that unless you have something slightly helpful to say, that you just shut the hell up, OK?

OK.

OK.

I’ll shut up.

Great. And Tripp still hasn’t answered. It is just–it’s unlike him.

[tense music]

---

[sighs]

I guess Marlena’s called it for the night. Hey, you want to talk about what happened with Alex?

No, I don’t want to bore you.

You’re not gonna bore me. I care about you. I know when you’re upset.

OK. Where do I even begin? I was tidying up the other night, right? And Alex’s jacket is on the chair, and so I go to put it away. And then this ring falls out of the pocket. And like anyone with a modicum of self-esteem, I think this ring is for me. Alex is gonna propose to me. So I’m walking on air and I’m waiting for this proposal to happen, and it turns out he’s not. He’s not proposing to me. He was never gonna propose to me. And I made it very clear to him that I thought that he was– he was gonna propose to me. And so I was so embarrassed and completely humiliated.

I’m–I’m sorry. Wow. Theresa, I’m actually really surprised. I had no idea that the two of you were even considering marriage.

[phone rings]

[sighs]

[phone beeps] Ugh. Yes, well, I was, obviously.

So you really– you really do love Alex?

[sighs] Damn it, Theresa.

[knocking] I’m glad you came back. Dr. Evans.

Yes.

Hi.

Hi. I’ve been trying to call you, but I keep getting your voicemail.

I’m sorry, I keep calling Theresa over and over and over again. I keep getting her voicemail. So I was oblivious to your calls. I’m sorry.

It’s all right. Theresa is at my house.

What?

She told Brady and me what happened, and I thought you might need someone to talk to.

Actually, I do. And I’m really grateful you’re here. Please, come on in.

[exhales]

You know, lady, I am struggling to figure out exactly who you are, and how you escaped the psych ward.

Actually, she was a client of mine.

Yeah, I know the both of you.

That’s right. Connie. Didn’t Li go on approximately one date with you?

Yeah. Well, one date could have turned into several. And it would have, if not for you. And I would have kept him safe.

Kept him safe? What are you, a character in a Stephen King novel?

Well, I’ll tell you what you are– a heartless floozy!

Whoa. That lady is tin-foil-hat crazy, huh? I don’t know why I ever took her on as a client. Hey, you OK?

Yeah, I’m fine. I’m just sad Li is gone. And I think about him a lot.

Oh, you guys actually had something, huh?

Yeah, we did. And I messed it up, totally. I was just at a point in my life where my career was up here, and everything else was way the hell down here, including my love life.

[laughs] I just– I took Li for granted. I back-burner-ed him, as they say. Don’t make the same mistake, Sloan. What you have with Eric, sure, it’s not perfect. But maybe it’s good enough. Embrace it. Cherish it.

---

Well, in spite of all my tiger mother worries, this turned out to be a really beautiful Valentine’s Day.

First of all, I love the tiger mother in you, and I truly respect how devoted you are to your kids, and ours.

Mm, our very adult kids.

Oh, yes. Oh, yes. Our very adult kids. So now, no more talk about those very adult kids. Instead–

[romantic music]

[gasps] * *

Kate Brady, my very beautiful, very sexy wife.

Mm.

May I have this dance?

[inhales sharply] Oh, you might certainly will.

---

OK. Since I… obviously seem to suck at cheering you up, how about I feed you?

I’m not hungry.

You need to eat. I can whip you something up in the kitchen. You have eggs? Maybe some ham, some prosciutto? Because I guarantee you, I will make you the best damn omelet of your life, which is saying a lot, because you are an amazing cook. So come on. Why don’t you sit down, put your feet up–

Stefan, why–why are you doing this? What’s in this for you?

[tense music]

I–

Theresa, it wasn’t a trick question. Do you love Alex?

[dramatic music]

---

Why else would I want to marry him?

I don’t know.

[laughs] I mean, I’m just thinking maybe–no.

What?

No, no, no, no, no.

What are you thinking? What?

All right. OK. All right. He’s coming into a lot of money, if he hasn’t already. And I don’t mean to sound crass. I don’t. I just thought that might have– have a little bit to do with your motivation. That’s all.

Xander? This can’t be right. Xander is Victor’s son? Well, that is crass, Brady. And that’s surprising, considering I– I thought that we were getting along lately. I thought that we were getting closer, and now you’re accusing me of being a gold digger?

OK. OK, Theresa. I’m sorry. OK. My apologies. I’m sorry. I really am. I’m sorry for saying that to you. I’m also very– I’m really happy that since you’ve been back, we have been getting closer. I like that. And I really don’t like that he hurt you. I’m sorry. Come here. Sorry.

What an idiot, though, right, leaving the ring inside the jacket like that. Of course she expected a proposal. When it didn’t happen, she freaked out, and she ran out of the restaurant. She came back here and started packing up all of her stuff into a suitcase. I tried to stop her from leaving. She wasn’t having it.

Well, she’s hurt and embarrassed.

Yeah. Yeah, she definitely was. But you know, Dr. Evans, I do care about Theresa. But–

But what?

I went to this meeting for, like, qualifying loved ones of addicts. Everybody in there was sharing their feelings and their stories, and I just shot my hand up. Said hi, I’m Alex. And God, I just got everything off my chest. I talked about Theresa, I talked about her addiction, I talked about how much she meant to me, how much I care for her. And I admitted that I wasn’t sure that I was able to get into a long commitment to somebody who’s dealing with problems like that, just like I admitted to you, too.

Yes, you did.

I also admitted that I might not be too sure about becoming a stepfather quite yet.

Well, Alex, I think you got to be true to yourself. That’s what’s important.

Yeah.

You did the right thing for both of you.

Sloan, you are not seeing things clearly. Look, Eric is not only your partner and your lover, your best friend, he is the father of your baby. You have a family now. So you need to stop focusing on what you’re not getting, and focus on being supportive of Eric’s devotion to Jude. And maybe be a tad more supportive of the little guy yourself. I mean, you are his mother, for heaven’s sake.

Yeah, not really, though.

Oh, no. Do not go there.

Where? Don’t go to the truth? That my husband’s ex-wife, AKA Nicole DiMera, is actually that little baby’s mother that we stole from her?

Shh! Oh my God, Sloan. You better damn well remember what all that we did to get you that baby. And more importantly, you better remember that if anyone finds out what we did, our lives are ruined.

I know. I know.

[sighs]

[romantic music]

What do you say we go upstairs, and I could give you my Valentine’s Day gift?

You said you didn’t get me anything.

Well, this gift doesn’t come wrapped. It doesn’t need wrapping.

Oh.

Mm.

My favorite kind of gift.

And you’re my favorite kind of everything. I love you, Roman Brady.

I love you, Kate Brady. And now I am definitely ready for the gift that needs no wrapping.

Mm-hmm. Then come with me.

[blows]

---

I don’t usually do late-night house calls, but I– I thought you might need it.

Well, I’m grateful you did. Honestly, this whole Theresa situation, to use therapy speak, it destabilized me.

I understand. And I’m also impressed with your self-awareness.

I couldn’t have done it without you, to be honest.

[chuckles] Dr. Evans, I keep thinking about the other night in your office, when you said that if it was real love, true love, it’ll last. I think I love Theresa.

I think you’re right. I think that you do. But I think your love is not unconditional. I think you have a hard time accepting that she had a drug addiction. And you also have a hard time thinking about yourself as a– as a stepparent. Those two things are never, ever going to change.

---

Mm. OK. I’m gonna just table this discussion for tonight, and I don’t want to talk about anything else that has to do with my love life. I just want to talk about seeing our son, Tate, tomorrow.

That is fine by me. And I got to be honest with you, I’m nervous about seeing my own son.

Me too.

I’m nervous.

I know. I also am nervous about how I think that maybe he’s not really doing as well as he says he is in his letters. And I’m nervous I am gonna cry me a river when I first see him.

And as you cry a big old river, he’s gonna understand. He’ll be fine.

Yeah, I know. He’s got such a good heart, doesn’t he, our kid?

He’s a pretty good kid. He’s got a really good heart. And by the way, while we’re being honest with each other, while we’re sitting here sober, I’ll always be there for you.

[gentle music]

Like tonight.

---

Like tonight.

---

Brady.

Thanks.

I’ll see you bright and early.

I’ll see you.

OK.

Get some sleep.

Yeah.

---

[sighs]

---

I get it, Melinda. And no one will ever find out… about Jude, where he came from.

They better not. And you better not drink any more.

Fine, I’ll stop.

No, don’t just stop, all right? Go home. You have a husband and a baby waiting for you there. God.

No, don’t you dare. Not tonight. It’s on me, please.

Thank you. And call me anytime if you need to vent. Just don’t vent to anyone else.

OK, I got it.

---

Can I please get another bourbon on a big rock?

---

Why does there have to be something in it for me to be nice? You’re having a hard time, and I’m here for you. That’s it.

[phone rings]

It’s the hospital. Hello? Yes, this is Ava Vitali. No, he’s not with me. What–what do you mean?

[dramatic music]

---

OK. Yes, yes. Yes, I will. And please have him call me as soon as you– you hear from him.

---

What is it?

Tripp.

---

He never showed up for work tonight.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Thane and Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING!

So it was a success? They got all the cancer out?

By all indications, yes. The lymph nodes were clear. There was no metastases, and we were able to preserve the parathyroid.

Oh, that is such great news.

So what’s the next step in her recovery?

Mainly just a lot of rest. But she may have a little pain in the incision site, but it’s nothing to worry about. And she might have some difficulty speaking.

Difficulty speaking? Well, she’s not going to like that.

Well, it’s just temporary. In the meantime, the hospital will give her a whiteboard and some post-it notes if she wants to say something.

When can she come home?

Well, I’d like to keep her here for a couple of days, keep an eye on her. I can talk to you later about some follow-ups and long-term care. Yeah.

[sighs] You hear that, Mama? You’re going to be OK. You are going to be more than OK.

So, you know, this is cause for celebration.

Yes.

Mm, agreed. And I’ve heard it’s not the only cause of celebration.

What a wonderful dinner you prepared, Konstantin. What was it again?

Pastitsio. It’s a Greek lasagna, an old family recipe that was probably written on papyrus.

Well, it was delicious. And I’m sure it was much appreciated by the newest residents of the Kiriakis mansion, Chad and Charlotte, Thomas, Julie, and Doug.

Oh, such a terrible misfortune losing their house in a fire.

Yeah, and it meant so much to them, to all of us. But wasn’t it wonderful, in spite of everything that they’ve gone through, Doug and Julie, they were so spirited tonight, so determinedly upbeat?

And still so much in love, it seems.

Definitely. Oh, when they sang that duet.

Oh.

Oh, my goodness.

A moving performance.

[laughs] It was. I was also moved when Charlotte and Thomas lit up when you handed them those candied hearts. I know that cheered up Chad and– a great deal to see his precious children smile.

I adore the little ones. They are so cute.

Yeah.

And it was wonderful to see you cheer up as well, Maggie.

Well, thanks, in great part to you, Konstantin.

Well, I hope I can cheer you up a little further with this.

Well, well, well. So is this the elusive Everett Lynch?

Hey.

Oh, my God. Bobby?

[tense music]

---

Excuse me? Who’s Bobby? Who are you?

Who– are you being serious right now? Why are you pretending to not know who I am?

What is going on?

I’ll tell you what’s going on. This man is my ex-husband. This is Bobby Stein.

Ex-husband?

What?

Whoa, uh, look, I– I don’t know who Bobby Stein is, nor do I have any idea who you are.

Liar!

Whoa! Ma’am, we’ve never met before. I’ve never met this woman before.

How can you say that?

Uh, because it’s true. Look, I have no idea why you seem so angry right now.

The hell you don’t.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Let’s just– let’s take a step back here, OK? Now, was it possible that your ex-husband and Everett just happened to look alike?

No. It’s him. Even behind that beard, I can tell that you are the man that I was a fool to marry. You broke my heart. You broke my spirit. And you left me, and you never even bothered to look back. You are Bobby Stein.

---

[soft orchestration] announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “Days of Our Lives.”

---

Well, congratulations, you two. And, Chanel, you make a stunning bride. But you are stunning anyway, just like your mom. Look at her, glamorous in a hospital gown.

Mama would look glamorous even in “Sesame Street” pajamas.

I agree with that.

Hey, you know what? I just realized our anniversary is on Valentine’s Day, just like yours.

Ah, well, welcome to the club.

It’s beautiful. Such kind words.

And every one is true. You know, Maggie dear, I know I am not, as the Americans would say, your– your Valentine. Don’t they also say the greeting card companies invented the holiday?

Yeah, that’s the rumor.

Anyway, I don’t want to cross any boundary with this. I simply want to tell you how much you mean to me.

Jada, look at me. Jada, please. Look at me. This man, this man’s name is Everett, Everett Lynch. He works at “The Spectator.”

OK. OK, Everett, how about this, huh? One second. Here, see for yourself.

OK. I mean, yeah, I definitely see the resemblance. But I mean, we all have– what– doppelgangers or people who look like us. There are billion people waddling around this planet.

That is not a doppelganger. That is you. That’s you, and you know damn well it is.

Look, I honestly don’t know what more I can say or do to convince you that this complete stranger isn’t me.

OK. How about I prove that he is? How about I haul your ass down to the station right now and I run your prints, and you tell me that they won’t come back as Robert Stein?

---

Say it again, Mama, but just a little louder this time.

Here you go.

[groaning]

[laughter]

Well, of course you are. You haven’t eaten anything since before midnight last night.

Well, unfortunately, she can’t have anything till the morning. I’m sorry, Paulina, but only ice chips tonight, OK? Tomorrow we’ll get you on a little more regular diet– soft foods, pudding, scrambled eggs, yogurt, that sort of thing. We’ll prepare a menu for you. I’m sorry. I’ll check in tomorrow, OK?

All right. Thanks for everything, Kayla.

Absolutely. And if you need anything, you guys just call me, all right?

Can I get you anything, Mama? Magazines? Or I can go home and get some books for you so that you can read them. Or I can make calls for you for work or whatever. And I’ll make sure that I call Big Mama tonight and give her the lowdown on everything. But for now, just tell me what you need.

Yes, please. And I’ll do whatever I can. I’m happy to make a run to the store. I can run by your place, grab those books.

You know, in Greece, it is not the tradition to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

Oh, no?

No, no, no. However, on February th, we do celebrate and honor Saint Priscilla and Saint Aquila, a couple who traveled with Saint Paul to spread the gospel.

Oh. Well, I remember Victor telling me tales about certain Greek holidays that were just excuses to sit around a table eating and laughing and shouting at each other.

That is true, I must admit.

That’s certainly not the holiday that you described. I’m sure you know that Victor was a wonderful storyteller–

Hmm.

–so erudite when it came to Greek mythology. He used to compare our love to Eros and Psyche, me being Psyche, a woman of unmatched beauty, and he’s Eros, an unsightly beast, who was madly in love with Psyche.

That is a lovely and, some might say, a well-worn tale. But did you know that in Greek, Psyche actually means “soul”?

Hmm. I did not know that.

Well, now you do. And speaking of souls, it is a privilege to get to know you better and better, Maggie, and to celebrate your incredible soul.

That’s very kind. Konstantin, though, you have a very generous and gentle heart. I could see that when– I don’t know, when the way you interacted with Thomas and Charlotte earlier.

I admit, I have a soft spot for the little ones.

That’s obvious. You know, I wonder, we never talk about it. Do you have any children of your own?

[tense music]

---

Uh, look, Rafe, I– I mean this totally genuinely, and I’m not trying to sound disrespectful. But is it– is it possible that, I don’t know, that she’s losing it?

Losing it? I’m losing it? OK, OK. I’m not the one pretending to be someone else. I’m not the one who’s gaslighting his ex-wife. So let me– let me jog your memory for you, OK, Bobby?

The name is Everett.

Years ago, when I discovered that you cheated on me, I filed for divorce, and I served you your papers. You–

Jada, Jada.

You turned into a ghost. And I don’t know, I assumed that you just got in too deep with those shady poker guys. Or I don’t know, maybe you just changed your identity and started a whole new life.

Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. What you’re saying right now makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills. OK, look, I know that the stress of your profession is very taxing emotionally, psychologically.

Oh, no, don’t you go there.

But I’m not– I’m not who you think I am, OK? I’m not Bobby Stein, nor have I ever been Bobby Stein. You and I were never married, nor have I ever been married. And that is the God’s honest truth.

So when you finally woke up from that coma, were you as lucid as you are now?

No, I wasn’t. I mean, my first diagnosis was retrograde amnesia, which is inability to access memories or information from before an accident or an injury or disease. So, you know, all they could tell me was to– to give it time.

Wait.

What?

After the accident, you said you had memory loss. Could that be why you don’t remember Jada and that you were married to her? Could it be because of the accident?

---

For Chanel and Johnny–

Oh my goodness, you did not. My employee said they were going to send us a specially made cake. Wow, thank you so much.

Of course.

Hey, when you get a chance, would you mind telling Dr. Johnson we’d love her to come and have a piece of cake with us?

I will do that.

Thank you. Take a look at this thing?

OK.

OK. Oh.

So who cuts the cake?

Well, traditionally, that honor is reserved for the bride and groom.

Shall we?

Yes.

If you wouldn’t mind, sir.

Not at all.

OK.

All right.

Here we go.

Oh, hold on, let me see.

[laughter] It’s red velvet.

Very nice.

So good. Oh, of course, Mama. Of course.

Yes.

[laughter]

Sorry to interrupt, Doctor.

Ahh.

I’ve been told there’s some cake waiting for you in the Price room.

Oh, I love cake. Thank you.

Oh, also, I thought you should know, Tripp hasn’t shown up for his shift.

Huh? Well, that’s odd.

Yeah.

I’ll reach out for him now. Thank you.

[tense music]

---

I see my question upset you. I’m sorry.

No, no, there’s no need for you to be sorry. We are friends. You asked me if I had any children, and why would you not? That is a perfectly reasonable question. Yes, I had a child, a daughter, Katerina. She was my– my…

[speaks in Greek] my heart. She was everything to me. And then she was gone. It happened many years ago in a fishing village not too far from Athens. It was tragic, an accident. And she was so young and beautiful inside and out, my Katerina.

Konstantin, I’m sorry. I know what it’s like. I know what it’s like to lose a child. The pain, it– it reaches the depths of your being. And even though time lessens the acuteness of it, it’s there. It’s always there, the pain.

Yes, it is. I tried to conjure up memories of her tender smile, the way the– the sun shone off my daughter’s beautiful hair. It is those memories that delivered to me some kind of peace, serenity.

Yes, it’s true. I was in an accident. I got hit by a car, one of those giant pickup trucks. I count my blessings every single day I’m alive.

It was my fault. I asked him to run errands, and he was just crossing the street and–

Steph, please, please. The only person who bears responsibility for that accident is the genius driver, who was, I’m told, playing “Candy Crush” on his phone at the time. Anyway, I’m not sure why we’re telling them this. But anyway, after I was struck down, I was apparently carted off in an ambulance, close to death, and placed into a medically induced coma for a year.

So he disappeared. I thought he ghosted me. I was confused, obviously, heartbroken, until he came back a couple of months ago. And he tracked me down.

I don’t buy it.

Well, speaking for myself, I don’t know what to believe right now. So if it’s OK with you, Everett, I’m going to personally look into this. And hopefully, we’ll get it all straightened out.

Yes, great. I love it; look into it. I have nothing to hide.

OK, fine. I mean, as we all know, you know, people do get amnesia all the time, and they can forget whole chapters of their life. So yes, why don’t you feel free to explore that idea? But I can tell– I can tell by looking in your eyes that you know me, and you know that we were married. And you know that you are still the same lying, cheating son of a bitch.

You are obviously in a world of pain from how you were treated, apparently, by your ex-husband. And that must be the reason that you would throw these kind of insane insults at a man who has never, ever laid eyes on you before. So let me just say this one more time so that you can finally accept it, and we can move on. I’m not your ex-husband. I am not Bobby Stein. My name is Everett Lynch.

[tense music]

---

Hey, Tripp, it’s Kayla. I’m at the hospital, and you’re not. So I’m just wondering if maybe you lost track of time. I mean, maybe you’re out for a nice Valentine’s dinner with Wendy. Or maybe you’re going off to the Cache Cupid Geo Hunt? Is that how you say it? Anyway, I’m sure everything’s OK. But maybe you could just give me a call and let me know? OK, bye.

OK, look at you, all John Mayer with your guitar.

Yeah. Well, you know, I just figured since we didn’t hire a band for our lavish wedding that I would fill in. Any requests?

Ooh, how about Ed Sheeran? Oh, or maybe Taylor Swift? You know I’m a big Swiftie at heart.

Who doesn’t know that?

Oh, no. You know what? How about you surprise us?

Oh, you want a surprise? OK, sounds good. But just remember that you asked for it.

[light guitar music] * * * My whole life I’ve lived in second gear * * Trying to go somewhere but got stuck here * * The day I met you it changed my life * * I saw the sparkle in your sunshine eyes * * No longer alone * * On top of the world * * On top of the world * * * * I love those pretty eyes and your smile * * And when you look my way * * There’s no denial * * The sun is shining bright * * It’s crystal clear * * The day is looking up because you’re near * * No longer alone * * On top of the world *

Konstantin, what about Katerina’s mother?

Oh.

[scoffs]

Oh, OK, never mind.

No.

We can change the subject, really.

It is fine. It is fine. I feel so at ease with you, Maggie. Katerina’s mother, well, I adored her. She was one of the great loves of my life, and she was a wonderful mother to our Katerina. But when we lost her, our Katerina, there was this emptiness, this unspeakable sadness. The marriage did not survive.

[gentle music]

Mm.

Yeah, you’re not Bobby. So we’re all supposed to just take your word for it, even though he looks and sounds exactly like Bobby.

All right, look, this isn’t going anywhere, at least not anywhere good. So why don’t we all just take a deep breath and we’ll call it a night?

I think that’s a good idea.

Yeah.

Fine. But, Stephanie, I can tell that you have feelings for this guy. Oh, I know that you are a really good person, and I think that you know that I am not a complete lunatic. So please, please believe me tonight for what I know to be true. Please– please don’t allow yourself to be sandbagged longer than you already have been. And I know who you are. And you will be found out. And you will eventually get what you deserve.

[groans] Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

I don’t– I don’t know what to think or what to say.

Yeah. Steph, how well do you know her?

Jada is my friend. She has always been so warm and kind. And she did tell me about her ex, how he cheated on her and lied to her and broke her heart.

Yeah. I mean, that must have been so hard for her. But I mean, to come after me like that, to accuse me of breaking her spirit on and on about how I cheated on her, how I lied to her, I mean– what? What are you– what are you– what are you thinking?

It’s just everything she said and that photo– Everett, are you really telling the truth? Are you really not Bobby Stein?

[tense music]

I’m terribly sorry you lost your daughter, Konstantin, your Katerina. I’m always here if you ever need to talk.

That means so much to me. And now I must ask you for something. And you can say no, of course. May I kiss you?

[laughs]

Good night, Maggie.

[guitar strumming]

* On top of the world * * Mm, yeah * * *

[applause] Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[laughter]

Yes, yes, you really are. And you are talented and charming. And I am so lucky that you are all my husband.

You certainly are, wife.

[tense music]

What’s going on? Do you need something, Paulina? What do you need? The doctor did say the anesthetic might make you nauseous.

OK, I’ll go get the doctor.

[groans]

[grunting]

Jada! Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Hey. Can you just talk to me? OK. All right, what happened back there, I’ve never seen you lose it like that before.

Because that man, Everett, he is a duplicitous con man who is a liar, and I was stupid enough to even marry. And now he’s doing this whole, what, this disappearing act, and he’s changing his whole identity. And he has the nerve. He’s claiming that I’m the one– I’m the one that lost it?

Yeah.

So yeah, yeah, yeah, that was– that was a lot for me to take in.

I understand. I understand. It’s just he claims he doesn’t know you.

He is a liar! He’s a liar!

Yeah, OK. Obviously, this has really freaked you out, and understandably so. Yeah, it’s just– oh, I’ve hung out with Everett a few times. He seems like a decent guy.

Oh my God. You think I’m the one that’s lying, don’t you?

[tense music]

Are you asking me if– if I am not Bobby Stein, a name I have never heard before it came out of the mouth of a woman I have never seen before? Stephanie, you could hook me up to every lie detector in the country, and I would tell you that your friend, Jada, is a complete stranger to me.

But the photo.

So she married a guy who looks like me. There are people in the world who look like each other, look-alikes, you know? And my God, I think I’d know my own name, all right? And it is not Stein. It is Lynch. My name is Everett Lynch. It is– it is on my driver’s license. Do you want to see it?

No, I don’t. I just–

What? You just what?

Is it possible that you don’t remember your past life with Jada because of the accident?

No. It is not possible. In fact, it is impossible. I mean, yes, there are– there are gaps in my memory, OK, you know, like maybe movies that I forgot that I saw or friends’ bachelor parties that I forgot getting bombed at, but not years or entire relationships. I mean, I think I’d remember getting married.

It’s an engagement ring. The question is, why do you have one?

OK. The truth is I bought it a long time ago, before the accident.

For me? Everett, you were going to ask me to marry you? The ring I found–

What? What about it?

So is that why your marriage ended, because your ex cheated on you?

Well, that was the main reason. But it was how I found out.

And how was that?

One day, I was checking our credit card bill, and I found a really big charge from a jewelry store. And since he hadn’t bought me any jewelry in months, well, you get the idea.

What’s going on? Are you OK?

No, I’m not OK. Because if– if Jada is telling the truth and you’re Bobby, it means I’m the other woman.

[gentle music]

---

[sobbing]

No, no, no. No, I am not saying that Jada, no. No, of course I don’t think that you’re a liar.

Well, you’re going on and on about how Everett’s this decent, nice guy like he can’t be a liar, right?

No, no, no, I only said that because–

Because what?

Because I just think– hey, I just think that we need to be careful with this, OK? You’re accusing someone of falsifying their identity, your ex-husband. I just think that you need to be % sure before you take that shot. Are you sure?

All I can say is that as soon as I saw him, there’s just all these– there’s all these old wounds just opened up, all the resentment, all the pain, all the hurt.

Yeah.

All that work that I put in to put that part of my life behind me, it just feels like it was just yesterday. So yeah, yeah, yeah, I lost it. I lashed out, because you don’t know– you don’t know what Bobby did to me and what he might do to Stephanie.

I understand.

I’m going to go to the station right now. I am going to find everything there is about Everett Lynch, no stone unturned.

OK, hold on. Jada, Jada, Jada, Jada. Just hold on, OK? I know how important this is to you. And because of that, it’s important to me as well, all right? But it’s late. And let’s not forget it’s also Valentine’s Day, right? So how about this, why don’t– why don’t we just try and salvage what’s left of this night? And then, tomorrow– tomorrow, I promise you, we will get to the bottom of this Bobby everything, all right? We’ll go– we can go back to my place, order from your favorite Thai restaurant, right? They can deliver those spring rolls, you love those, and the drunken noodles. And we can just hang out or watch a movie or whatever. Does that sound OK to you?

Sure. Yeah, let’s do it.

OK, great. I promise you, tomorrow we will find out what is going on with this thing, OK? Promise.

Steph, come on. You can’t possibly believe something that preposterous, that my actual name is Bobby Stein. I mean, it’s legit insanity.

Everett, you bought a ring. You were going to propose to me. You said that.

Yeah, I did. But that’s relevant because?

It’s relevant because Jada said that Bobby bought a ring for another woman, which means he was cheating on her with, it seems, me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. But that only makes sense if I’m Bobby, which I’m not. I mean, Steph, I’m not– I’m not a cheater, all right?

How do you know if you can’t remember? Oh my God. I feel like I’m going crazy.

Listen. Hey, hey, hey, hey. It’s OK. It’s OK. Let’s just take a beat, all right? Let’s calm down. Please, please, please. Let’s go back to my room. Let’s have a nightcap and talk about this like two mature adults, OK?

I’m– I don’t think that’s such a good idea. I’ll see you later.

Steph? Hey.

Uh, hey, Tripp. It’s me again. Are you coming in tonight? I’m kind of starting to get worried. And since your phone is going straight to voicemail, I’m assuming that it’s– that it’s dead. Maybe I’ll just try Wendy. OK, bye.

Doctor, code MI.

Oh.

Mama! Mama!

Stay with us. Stay with us, baby. Stay with us. Stay with us.

What’s happening?

I’m not sure. Carol, get me some aspirin and some nitroglycerin. Get Dr. DeVos from cardiology over here. Take it easy, Paulina. Help is on its way. Take it easy.
