THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Right, well, um, still, I’m, I’m, I’m glad to see you and I know the move can be hard, you know, leaving your friends behind. Yeah. Yeah, but I did just, I did just meet this really cool girl in the park, so. Oh, wow. That was fast. Yeah. Yeah, but I thought… What? Never mind, never mind. I just feel really stupid, but you don’t, you don’t need to hear it.

Oh, come on, Tate. Why did you feel stupid? Because, um, I kind of thought she was into me, but she shut me down pretty quick. Sorry to hear that. Yeah, I mean, turns out she’s into someone else, so… Hey, Mom. Tarlas, don’t be discouraged because I’m sure you will meet plenty of potential girlfriends here. Yeah, yeah, it’s just, it’s just a little weird being the new guy in town, you know.

But, this girl Holly did give me her number, so… I’m sorry, did you say Holly? What are you

watching tonight? Uh, tonight, we’re watching… Welcome to your childhood. I have been working on a secret blend of salt and… Chanel, uh, look who’s joining us. You remember Holly, right? Yeah, are you guys back together? We are. That’s wonderful! I’m happy for you. Really happy. But also kind of surprised. I mean, you guys got a divorce, right?

I figured your relationship was totally over. Uh, yes, it was. But, um, Chanel decided to give me another shot. Hmm. But aren’t you into girls now? Oh, uh, girls, boys, I’m into both. Well, that’s a bummer. Excuse me? Oh, no, no, sorry, I meant, um, It’s a bummer for the dating pool in Salem, because you’re such a catch, right?

You know, Holly is right. By the way, you are a total catch. And look who caught you. Again. Look at me.

Um, Dr. Evans. What are you doing here? I came to thank you personally. Susan filled me in on what happened. How you and Ava had realized that she was alive, and how you rescued her from Crumb. She thinks you’re a real hero. Okay, uh, I’m not sure the Salem PD would agree with her, but thank you. You’re welcome.

And if I can vouch for you in any way, at all, please call on me. I appreciate that. But right now I’m more concerned about Ava. I think there’s a good chance she could be sent to prison.

Hello, Ava. How you doing? What did the doctor say? You okay? Oh, yeah, I’m just fine. Good. I’m glad to hear it. As am I. Because now Mother can finally press charges against you for attempted murder.

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

What was this girl Holly’s last name? It wasn’t Jonas, was it? I don’t know. She never said. Well, what does she look like? She’s, uh, she’s hot. Very helpful tape. Sorry. Yeah. It’s okay. Oh, I know. Got my phone here.

Is this her? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that’s Holly. Why do you have a photo of her? Because she’s my daughter.

So, are we good to go here, G? Yes, uh, movie’s all set, so. Mom, I better get out of your hair. What? No, stay. Watch the movie with us. Are you sure? I don’t want to crash your date night. Hey, the more the merrier. And there’s plenty of popcorn. Yeah. Okay. Just, uh, you know, slide over, make some room for Chanel. No problem.

Okay. Thanks, Holly.

This is gonna be fun. Thanks for including me, guys.

Eva was already in a lot of trouble before the two of you went down the lab and you, you put a lot on the line for her. I, I mean, what else was I going to do? Somebody tried to kill her at Bayview. I had to step in. You did more than step in. You escaped from Bayview. You helped her evade the police. And then you helped create an international rescue mission.

I would say you’ve done quite a bit for her. Yeah, I… Like, one thing did lead to another. But Ava was worried that, you know, nobody would believe her side of the story. She knew that E. J. DiMera sent that hitwoman, and the only way to stop him from going after her again was to prove that Susan was alive. So you forged two passports, and you fled the country, and then you went about going on the run, avoiding the police, at your own risk.

I feel like there’s a question in here somewhere. There is. I’m curious. Why you did all that for Ava?

Press charges? I am the reason your mother is standing right here. You’re also the reason she went missing for a year. And you know damn well I wasn’t in my right mind when I did that. Unlike you. You, who knew exactly what you were doing when you sent that hit woman to bathe you to assassinate me. I didn’t know such a thing.

Oh, you lie. You’re such a liar. Prove it. Prove it? Yes. Hey, hey, hey. What’s going on here? Commissioner Hernandez, my mother is ready to make a statement about how Ava tried to kill her. Uh, uh, uh, actually, mm mm, I’m not, I’m not, yeah, I will not press charges against Miss Ava Daly. Would

you like a lollipop?

Uh, that thing I said about that girl, Holly, uh, being hot. I meant that in like a totally respectful way. It’s okay, Romeo. I get it. Dad mentioned that you had a daughter with Daniel. I guess I just, I forgot her name. In my head, she’s still like a little kid or something. Tell me about it. But to my dismay, she is all grown up.

Feels like it happened overnight. Yeah, what a crazy coincidence. I mean, what are the odds? Welcome to Salem. Hey, but since it happened, do you think you could put in a good word for me? Never mind, I mean, what’s the point, right, if she’s in love with this other guy? Um, I’m sorry, wait. Uh, first you said she was into someone else.

Now you’re saying she’s in love? Yeah, that’s what she said. What, did you not know? No. She hasn’t mentioned anything. I wonder who she’s talking about.

Okay, mid movie review, what do we think so far? Oh my god, I’ve heard of Clueless, of course, but I’ve never seen it before. And when you said it was almost 30 years old, I thought it might be in like, black and white or something. Oh my god, Johnny, we are old. Um, wow, okay, well it’s not like we even grew up on that movie anyway, but actually, Holly, Color was introduced to film in its infancy, like a hundred years ago in the uh, silent era.

See, they actually used to Oh, okay, okay, Mr. Movie Buff. We’re here to have fun tonight, remember? Not help write a film studies dissertation. No, that’s really interesting, Johnny. And so far, I’m loving it. Alicia Silverstone and Paul Brett, they make such an amazing couple. Don’t you think? Uh, even though it’s It’s a little creepy that their characters are practically related.

Oh, come on. They’re not related. Not really. They’re step siblings. They didn’t even grow up together. Exactly. And there’s nothing wrong with that because they’re perfect for each other. Okay, okay. I stand corrected. Although, I’ve always kind of had my eye on Jeremy’s sisto. Sisto? You trying to make me jealous right now?

Maybe. Oh, whoa. Oh, my God. Are you all right? Yeah, no, just the, uh, wow. Chanel, that, uh, the popcorn is pretty heavy on the spice. Yeah, I’m sorry, that’s my fault. I like it salty and spicy. Here, let me get you something to drink. What do you want? Um, I’ll take a sparkling water. Thanks. Oh, can you grab me one too, please?

Sure. Sparkling water is all around.

Hello?

Helping Ava just seemed like the right thing to do. You know, she was scared, she didn’t have anybody on her side, and I was there. It was, uh, as simple as that. It might have been simpler if she told me about Susan after our hypnotherapy session. Yes, I… I think you can understand Ava’s trust issues. Mm hmm.

The person Ava trusts is you. I mean, being locked away together… Can bond people, and to be honest, it’s, uh, pretty lonely at Bayview, and we became friends. Is that all? Uh, why, why are you asking? Well, just, um, for my part, on a personal level, it’s really none of my business. But as your therapist, I think I need to caution you.

That you seem to be in denial. In denial about, about what? About your feelings for Ava.

What are you talking about? Ava drove you off a cliff. She tried to kill you. And that attempted murder is the reason why you were held captive for a year. Oh, sweet, sweet boy. Ava. And her hungry sidekick. They rescued me. Yeah, and Ava has made her a magic. And, sweetheart, I forgive her. Oh. You know, besides, I would rather have Mr.

Commish here. You know, focus on that, that mystery man. The man that shipped me off to Edmund. Oh, yeah, don’t worry. I’m on it, Susie. Alright, that’s it. Let’s go get some grub, hun. Mother, please, is there anything I can do or say that can get you to reconsider? Nope, nothing. Oh, Susan, thank you so much. You, you have no idea what this means to me.

Aw. Aw, lollipop? Yes. Alright, Alice darling, let’s go. Chow down! You’re a woman.

Yeah. So. Mr. Krish. What you waiting for? Yeah. Slow your roll, Vitaly. I’m not out of the woods just yet.

I hope tonight hasn’t been too much of a bust. First getting booted from your mom’s place, and then… Pauly crashing our movie night. It’s never a bust when I’m with you. And I am so loving watching Clueless again. Yeah, yeah, me too. And what a treat! Right, I mean, an actual color film produced in the black and white 90s.

Yeah, you know, I’m kind of glad your mom kicked us out tonight. Me too. Although, I have to say, it has been a lot more lively around here than normal, right? I mean, so many people moving in and out of this mansion in the last year. Oh, including Holly. Right, right. But, uh, she’s cool though, right? Yeah. Yeah, she is.

I mean, pretty low bar, though. All she has to do is not try and kill anyone. Yeah. Yeah, when you put it like that, um, I hope my murderous family is not deterring from the point that I’m actually trying to get at here. Okay, which is? Well, I was just wondering if maybe you’d like to be the next person to move in.

You know, Brave the Demerit Dungeon. Oh, and you put it that way. No, but seriously though, what do you think? Well, gee, I’m, I’m really glad that we’re back together and we’re having fun. But, I, let’s just not get ahead of ourselves, okay? Okay. Fair enough. How about a compromise then? Maybe, after we finish this movie, you and I could slip up to my room and start practicing for when you do move in.

You could be the Cher to my Josh. Unless you’d rather, I don’t know, you know, go track down, uh, what’s his name, Jeremy’s sister or

something. Oh, as if. Special delivery. Oh, hey, Molly. Um, wow, thank you very much. Thanks. Very kind. Sorry, I kind of stole your spot. No problem.

Oh! Whoa! Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Did Holly mention who this person is? This guy she’s in love with? No. Well, maybe she was teasing you. Right? Talking about a celebrity crush. You know, she’s Oh!

Michael B. Jordan, too. Yeah, yeah, she did say that she thinks the guy feels the same way about her, so. Really? Unless Harry and Michael happen to be, uh, sliding into her DMs, uh. I sincerely doubt that.

Oh, shoot, my dad’s freaking out. I gotta go. Do you need a ride? No thanks, I’m good. It was, it was nice seeing you. Good to see you too, Dave. And be safe. Yeah. Oh,

sweetheart, I am so glad I ran into you. I have the most incredible news. Oh, what’s up? I don’t even know where to begin, to be honest. Elvis! Elvis! This, this is what I have missed most. Mmm, good old American cuisine on a stick. Oh my God, Susan, I can’t believe this. You’re alive. Yeah, oh my gosh, and you’re preggish.

You know, we were just with Mr. Commission. He didn’t say anything about finally becoming a daddy. Hmm.

Are you seriously gonna press charges against me for escaping from Bayview and running off to England? No. No, I’ll see the DA’s office. It’s, uh, it’s kind of a mess ever since Trask was fired, so, uh, they’re gonna let that slide since you rescued Susan. Okay, so then what is it? Oh, is it because Harris and I didn’t get EJ’s confession because we tried?

Oh, and believe me, I want that bastard behind bars just as much as you do. Nope. Not that either. What is it? Well, I don’t know if it’s completely slipped your mind, but you weren’t exactly a free woman when you escaped from Bayview. You were there because of a court order. Yes, but I got better. Susan is alive.

Okay, well, maybe you did, but… Where you go next, it’s not up to me. It’s up to your doctors.

Dr. Evans, I really don’t want to talk about this. It…

I understand. And, I wouldn’t ask if I weren’t your therapist. But it’s important for me to know because it affects you. And, it affects your recovery. Okay, um, I’m not gonna deny that I care about Ava. We grew close in Bayview and even closer on the run, but I don’t know, the kind of feelings you’re talking about.

Alright.

So, what’s going on? So, Susan decided not to press charges against Ava. And, um, well, as for the illegal passports and evading the police, DA’s just gonna let it all go. You got lucky. Because although what you did was unlawful, it led to the rescue of Susan, and, uh, well, long story short, you’re off the hook.

No one’s going to prison. So, Ava and I are free to go? No. Not quite. Well, technically, you and I have to complete our court ordered stay at Bayview, but, um… Well, you know some doctors there, don’t you? I do. I can make a call. Oh, Dr. Evans, do you think that I really need to go back? I mean, I feel like I’ve made so much progress, and…

Well, I’m sorry, that isn’t really up to me. Do you think that you could talk to my doctors about it? I’d be glad

to.

Honey, you didn’t tell her? There was a lot going on. Well, don’t tell me what! Nicole is pregnant with my child, not Rafe’s. Oh, oh, okay, hold on. I thought that you were Mrs. Comish. You have missed out on a lot since you’ve been gone. Um, Mother, Nicole and I are back together. In fact, we are, um, Engaged. Oh! Yes!

And this little bundle of joy is your future grandbaby. Are you sure about that? Because I’m not getting any kind of familiar connection. Well then your psychic powers are on the

fritz because that child is definitely mine. You’ve even done a paternity test. What? Are you hollering around on my boy? Mother! No, Susan, and I resent that question very much. Wait, you know, well then why, why would you have to get a test to find out if the baby is yours?

Okay, because, there, and, there were some issues, okay, in Salem about the time I got pregnant, and I was high, and, Well, so was the person I was with because of these tainted biscuits. Tainted biscuits, huh? Yes. Wow, and so who was the other person, ha, on biscuits? How is that important? My God, can’t you just be happy for us?

Be happy for yourself. We’re having a baby and you’re going to have a grandbaby. That is wonderful news, is it not? Okay, yes, I’m glad, I’m glad, I’m glad, I’m glad, I’m just so happy for the both of you. You know what? To show you my congratulations to the both of you, I am going to give you my last lollipop.

And look, it’s so pretty. Here you go. You know, children are really a blessing, aren’t they? It’s about time. Okay, calm down. No, seriously, Ted, come on, where have you been? I’ve been texting you for hours. I told you, Dad, I was out. I wanted to get reacquainted with the neighborhood. I gotta say, not much has changed since I was a kid.

Because that was so long ago. Well, I, uh, I went by the park. You know, the one that we used to see the ducks at? Oh, yeah? Wait, you remember that? Yeah, yeah, of course I remember that. Huh. Did you see any ducks when you were there? Well, I, uh, I saw one chick. A, uh, chick? A girl, dad. I saw a girl. Ah. Yeah. And get this, you uh, you know her.

I do. Who is she? Her name’s Holly. She’s uh, she’s Nicole’s daughter. Chanel, oh my god, I’m a napkin. I, I don’t think one napkin is going to cut it. I’m such a klutz. You must hate me. No, no, it’s fine. You’re fine. It’s not like I’m a wicked witch or anything. Oh, wow. Now you’re gonna have to go all the way home to change.

What? No, no, you don’t have to do that. Um, I’m sure I’ve got a, uh, you know, a t shirt or something that fits, and I’m sure there’s a pair of sweatpants up there that’ll sort of fit as well. And I’m pretty sure that I remember where you keep your things. Fantastic. Okay, so, um, I guess I will just go upstairs, do a quick little wardrobe change, and…

I’ll come back. Sounds good. Um, yeah. T shirts. Top drawer of the bureau. Next to the window. Sweatpants are on the bottom. Right. Again. I’m so sorry. Hey, it is okay. I you dare start that movie again without me. Of course not. I totally ruined everything, didn’t I? You should have kicked me out on movie night when you had the chance.

Oh, no, it’s fine. It’s fine. Don’t worry about it. It was an accident. An A. I was just telling Chanel I think you’re really cool. You are? Yeah. Yeah, this, uh, this whole nut house has been a lot more bearable since you and your mom moved in. Johnny, can I tell you a secret? Yeah, sure. What is it?

So I’m guessing there wasn’t anything on that tape that you could use against EJ? No. No, unfortunately not. But thanks for trying. Yeah, I know it’s kind of weird. I don’t know if he caught on or not, but he just left. But I’m just hoping that he doesn’t come after Ava again. Yeah, EJ isn’t really known for forgiving and forgetting.

No, no, he’s not. Dr. Evans, um, what did my doctors say? They agree that you’re making amazing progress. And, before your escape, they were actually considering releasing you. And now? Now they believe that you’ve learned right from wrong. And the woman that drove Susan off that cliff is not the same woman who risked her life to save her.

They think you are no longer a risk to society. So I’m free? You are free Oh my god, I’m

free.

Well, I’ve been debating whether or not I should keep this to myself, but maybe now’s the time to speak up. Eh? Oh my god, I’m crazy. No, no, I’m not. Look, I promise, no judgment here. Okay, well, I’ve been thinking a lot about… Grandma? Grandma? Grandma! Oh my god! So happy to see you! Look at you!

Oh

my god, I, I can’t believe this.

Me neither. Wait, how is this possible? It’s a long story, but all that matters is your grandma is home safe and sound. Holly, honey, can I speak to you for a second? Yeah, what’s up? What is it? Well, I spoke with Tate Black, you know, the boy you ran into at the park earlier. Oh, so his last name is Black. Is he…

Brady’s son. Yeah, I did not put that together. Neither did he. Put together that you’re my daughter. But, uh, he told me about your encounter, and what I want to know is… Who’s this boy you’re in love with? Uh…

Um… Holly! Yeah, she’s, uh, she’s a sweet girl. I’m hoping the two of you can be… Good friends. Yeah. Yeah, well… Actually… Well, actually what? Never mind. No, no, no. Hey, hey. Well, actually what? What are you hoping to sweep her off her feet? Hoping she’ll fall in love with you? What do you have planned here, buddy?

What actually? What? Why are you being so mean about this? I mean, am I not allowed to be attracted to some girl and go out with her? First of all, first of all, she’s not some girl, okay? It’s Nicole’s daughter. Second of all, yeah, you can feel whatever you want to feel. I just… I don’t think it’s a good idea for you to act on it right now.

Cool. Yeah, I’m going to my room. No, Tate, wait. Please, come here.

I know I’m being tough on you right now, okay? I’m sorry about that. But with what happened at your school, I just wish you were a little more focused on making up for that instead of… You caused your parents a lot of anxiety and a lot of disruption. We had to go to California and bring you back here. I already said I was sorry about all that.

I know, but that’s not always good enough. That’s why tomorrow you’re going to be enrolled in Salem High. And when you’re not studying, buddy, you are going to be working. Working? What are you talking about? When you blew me off at lunch, the pub, your Uncle Roman did show up, and as a favor to your mom, he said you could work there.

Work there? Yeah. That is so not fair. I thought you were joking about that whole job thing. I’m not joking, Tate. You caused damage at your school. You’re going to pay for it because of your stupid prank. Come on, Dad. That’s like 50K. It’s going to take me forever to earn that back. Good. And you’ll stay out of trouble forever.

Now that you’re free to go, Ava, I don’t want to see you back here. Ever. Got it? You know, normally, I might have a snarky response, but… I’ll just say that I plan to walk the straight and narrow from now on, I promise. Well, I hope that’s a promise you keep. Oh, I will. Um, is there a phone that I could use to call my son?

I’ve got to ask him to pick me up, and I guess I need a place to stay. You can use the phone in my office. Well, um, I’ll be back.

Bayview is willing to readmit you if you’d like me to drive you over. You know, um,

After everything I’ve been through, you know, I’m feeling pretty good about my mental health. What do you mean? Well, I mean, I had you commit me because I thought I was going to be a danger to other people and I don’t really feel like that anymore. You know, and despite all the stress and everything that happened when I was on the run, I just, I felt like, I felt like I was back in control.

So… With your approval, I would like to end my stay at Bayview, uh, but also keep seeing you on an outpatient basis if that’s… I mean, what do you think about that? I think that’s reasonable. I’ll make the call. Thank you for everything. Yeah, I’m just curious about one thing. Your decision… To leave Bayview, does that have anything to do with the fact that Ava’s no longer there?

Not at all.

Oh, let me get a good look at you. I can’t believe how grown up you are. Why not? My mom must text you photos of me all the time. Well, yeah, she does, but… He doesn’t like seeing you in person. I’m so glad you’re here, honey. Yeah, me too. Granny Mar Mar. What? I never heard my sister calls you that. What, you don’t like it?

Well, you may call me Grandma Marlena. Unless you like sleeping in the broom closet. Deal. Grandma Marlena. Thank you. This kid’s trouble. Oh, you’re telling me. I’m gonna set up your room. I will help you.

Honey, what are you doing? Mom, you are embarrassing me. Why would you be embarrassed? Hello, you are being nosy about my love life. Right out in public. Oh, so you are in love. No, I just made that up. Why would you do that? Because that Tate guy, he tried to kiss me. He did? Yeah, but I’m totally not into him. So, I just made up a story about some boy I was in love with.

You know, to let him down easy. Okay. Well, that was kind of you. And it makes more sense than you not telling me that you’re in love. Because you would tell me, wouldn’t you? Of course I would. Okay, good. Because I feel like you and I have a close relationship, right? And you would be open to telling me something that important?

I just said I would.

All right. Do you want to go back in there or do you want me to walk five paces behind you so I don’t embarrass you? Mom. Mom. Uh, actually, you go on ahead. I’ll catch up. Seriously, Mom, I love you.

Just go. Okay.

I love you too. Hi. You alright? You look a little upset. No, I’m fine. So, something going on in there or what? Oh, right, you were upstairs? Well, you’re never going to believe this!

So… So Ava, Ava was right? You’ve been alive this whole time? Mm hmm. And thank goodness that, uh, Ava and Mr. G. I. Blues, they, they rescued me, because I would have still been locked up and, you know, chained up to that floor in Edmund Crumb’s crummy little flat. Well, I think Ava maybe has redeemed herself this time.

Impossible. Hey, Elvis, you, you, you leave that girl alone, you hear me? Grandma’s right, Dad. Okay. It’s time for you and Ava to just, just wipe the slate clean, okay? Start fresh.

I guess I’m outnumbered here. Fresh slate it is.

Yes!

That’s my you tried to have Ava killed. She may be off the hook. Sure not, Elvis.

Yeah, Harris, that’s wonderful news all around. Yeah, I’m feeling pretty good about it, actually. Um, But I was calling because, is, is Mr. Brady around? Uh, no, he isn’t at the moment, but I’m filling in for him. Is there anything I could do for you? Well, I heard, uh, Eric’s room is vacant, and I was wondering if his dad would take me on as a tenant.

He sure. Yes, absolutely. I think he would be happy to do that, and I would be happy to have you here as well. That’s great. Thank you so much. Well, I’ll let Roman know, and we will see you here soon at the pub, your new home. Look forward to it.

Hey.

Ava. So, um, Tripp’s gonna come pick me up, but I just, I wanted to say goodbye and, um, thanks. Again. No thanks required. So, um,

you headed back to Bayview? Actually, I’m not, uh, gonna go back. And Dr. Evans said she will have me released. Really? That’s terrific. That’s great. So what are you going to do now? Well, uh, since I came to Salem to keep an eye on Megan Romero, and I don’t know, now that she’s gone. Yeah. You can, um, leave town then, huh?

No. I’m gonna stay here in Salem. I grew up here. It seems like a nice place to start a life. That’s, that’s really great. You, um, you have a place to stay. Uh, well, Dr. Evans actually said her son moved out of the Brady Pub, and Kate just rented the room to me. Well, look at that. Everything’s just working out.

And, uh, for what it’s worth, um, I’m really glad you’re staying in Salem.

I guess I’ll see you around. Yeah,

Mommy!

I want my mommy! Shhh. I’ll get

you

back to your mom. I promise. What’s your name? Bella. Okay, Bella, I’m Gabby. Is this your house? No.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey. Hey. Um, I hope I’m not late. I couldn’t remember what time I said I was going to pick you up. That is because we didn’t set a time. Oh. Sorry. Why are you sorry? If we didn’t set a time, that means you’re not early or late. That’s a good point. Yes, you’re right. So, where are we headed? I thought that you were picking the place.

Well, I thought you were picking the place. Okay, well maybe your mom has a good recommendation or something? Well, I’m sure she would, but she’s not here. I haven’t seen her since this morning. Oh. So you’re saying that we’re… Uh, you and I are here alone. Yep. Okay then. I think I might have just solved our dilemma of what we should do tonight.

What can I do? I mean, after I got kicked out of school, my parents hopped on a plane and dragged me back to Salem, so I’m stuck here now. Yeah, yeah. Hey, hey man, I gotta call you back. Hey, you dropped something. Oh my god, I can’t believe I almost lost that. You’re a serious lifesaver.

Like I said, I, my mom was just pressuring me to tell her how serious we were. And all I was saying when you walked in was that I could someday see myself getting married to you. But it’s not like I was dropping any hints about wanting to get married now. Okay. Good. I just don’t think that we have to rush anything.

I mean, I like the way things are. Don’t you? Absolutely. Okay. So, um, I have to go pick up the kids from Doug and Julie’s. I should probably get going.

I’ll see you in a little bit. Sounds good. Okay.

Look, Teresa, I’m just getting settled in here, as you can see. You have to eat, don’t you? Yeah, but I was planning on a working dinner. You’re turning me down for work? Oof. Wow. Maybe it was pity, sex, and grease then after

all.

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

Now, how many people can say that they are dating their husband? I mean, wait, I know, married people are always talking about planning dates. night or whatever, but this is just different. This is really dating, you know, the kind where you kiss good night, not the end of it. You go your separate ways, which I am so hoping.

Oh, that is not the case tonight. Oh, OK. So Abe. It’s definitely coming to your place, right? Yeah, he is. And Kate, I’m so damn nervous. What if I put my foot in it and make the man not want to remember I’m his wife? There’s no way that is not going to happen, okay? Ava’s lost his memory, hasn’t lost his mind.

Why would he not want to remember that he is married to one of the most charismatic, fascinating women in all of Salem? Oh, well, Kate, oh, hey. You do wonders for my ego and it’s very much appreciated. Especially tonight. Oh, oh, you know what, huh? Oh, I better, I better get started. I better go home. I better start cooking.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Wish me luck. You don’t need luck, okay? All you need is your awesome self. And you need to let that man know how lucky he was and is going to be sharing a life with an extraordinary woman like you. Oh, okay. I will! And thank you, thank you for the very effective… Oh, my pleasure. Okay, now you need to get going and get ready.

Okay. Yes! I’ve got this.

Abe? Hello? I, uh, I hope I’m not interrupting. I know you don’t remember me, but I’m really glad we ran into each other because I’ve been meaning to come and see you. I know who you are. You’re Nicole Walker. That’s right. And you have a daughter named Holly. Oh my god. I can’t believe this. You have your memory back.

Thank you, thank you. If I’d lost this… Oh my god, I owe you. Big time. Hey, hey, no worries. I’m, um, I’m Tate, by the way. Holly. Did you go to Salem High? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before. Yeah, I used to live around here, but I moved away a long time ago. But now you’re back? For a while, yeah. You don’t sound too happy about it.

Yeah, yeah, I wasn’t at first, but um… Hey, maybe it won’t be so bad.

So what brought you back here? Did one of your parents get transferred or work or something? Actually, no. I got in some, uh, trouble at school, so my parents brought me back to straighten my life out. See, according to my dad, I’m way too much like my mom,

Theresa. Mm-hmm. . I told you that was not pity sex at all. Hey. I wanted to be with you, and I promise you we will have that first date, but tonight I really do have work to do.

Okay, fine. A multi billion dollar corporation is more important than a night out with me. Mmm, I promise you we will have that date. Oh, really? Really. Can I get that in writing? You don’t believe me? No, it’s… Well, maybe you’re saying no because you think maybe I’m just after your money. Hey.

Mama! Hey, Paulina, how’s it, uh, how’s it going? Oh, hey there! Well, uh, oh, well, no need to be embarrassed. Well, I’m happy to see you two back together again. Yeah, well, you, uh, You frisky kids, you’re gonna have to take that someplace else. Oh, really? And, uh, why’s that? Because mama’s got a date tonight. Okay. Abe, I don’t know how you’re just sitting here reading your tablet when you should be dancing in the streets.

You have your memory back. Everyone’s been waiting for this day. Nicole, I think you’re getting ahead of yourself. What? I’m sorry. I don’t remember you. I, I, I don’t remember any of my life before I woke up in the hospital. But you, you knew my name, and my daughter’s name. Well, that’s, that’s because of my education.

Education? Yeah, see, uh, uh, When I moved in with Steve and Kayla, Kayla started showing me photographs of people from my past. And, uh, well she told me about, about who they are. And things pertaining to, to their lives. Oh. Yeah, I guess, uh.

I guess I did get a little ahead of myself.

So, What else do you know about me?

Well, Let’s see, uh, Nicole, Nicole Walker, um,

You and I were friends, right?

Actually, we were more than that. You’ve been like a father to me, and I’ve missed you. Very much.

Why would I suddenly think you’re after my money? Because I know my reputation. I mean, you would be a silly little fool for it not to have crossed your mind. So are you trying to get me to not trust you? No. I’m just trying to get it out in the open to remind you, okay, that we had talked about going out before I knew about your…

Inheritance, and that I had absolutely no idea that you were Victor Kiriakis son the night that we slept together. Yeah?

Well, you didn’t have to remind me. Luckily, I happen to be secure enough in my incredible animal magnetism and charm that it didn’t even occur to me that you could actually be gold digging. Ha! Okay, great. Now that that’s out of the way, you have no excuse to blow me off. Well, uh, other than my actual excuse of having to work.

Oh, come on. It’s after hours. You’re gonna work. You need to relax. You need to enjoy a little bit. You can work tomorrow. Tomorrow’s another day. So you’re just gonna be inventing every reason to put me on the spot, huh? Have I worn you down yet?

I don’t know. Wait, wait, wait. So, the sprinklers went off over the entire school? Yeah, like a downpour in every classroom, every dorm room, and in every office, too. Yaaay. Yeah, yeah. What did you think was gonna happen when you pulled that alarm? I don’t know. I thought maybe we’d get a nice little fire drill, everybody gets to go outside for a while.

And, uh, The physics exam that nobody studied for gets postponed. Hmm, you thought you’d be a hero. Yeah, yeah, well the uh, the headmaster had a different take on the situation. Fifty thousand dollars in damages later. So now my parents are trying to get me a job dishwashing to pay back all the damage that I caused.

Which is, which is good news because it should only take me… I don’t know, 20 years or so. Yeah, right. Well, hey, maybe it’s lucky for you that I did drop my bag. Yeah? Why’s that? Because, seems to me, like you need to light up and forget your troubles. Hmm? So

my son, Brandon, is My half brother. And Faye was our mother. Faye. Yeah, you loved her very much. In fact, that’s how you and I connected. Babe, you are so wise and kind. And you were the person that I turned to when I felt lost. You never judged me. And you were always there for me. Wow. I hope I get my memory back soon, because you just seem like a very special person.

Oh, hmm. Very flawed person, actually. I’ve been known to make some bad choices, to put it mildly. Well, welcome to the human race. You see, that’s exactly what my dear friend Abe Carver would have said to me back in the day. Finally. I wish I could be that guy for you again. You are that guy. And hopefully after my baby is born in a few months, you will be a big part of her or his life.

Well, you know Holly must be excited about having a little brother or sister on the way. Mmm, I don’t know about that. Holly’s a teenager and she’s excited about… Whatever teenage girls are excited about. Boys. Oh, I suppose. I hope not. Because I am not ready for that yet.

Um, am I, am I keeping you? Uh, you know, I have somewhere I have to be soon. But I am a little nervous, actually. Where do you have to be? I have a date. With my wife. Paulina Price and I are having dinner tonight. So, what’s

the plan? The plan is a lovely, quiet, home cooked dinner. Oh, nice. Oh, I have to preheat the oven. Oh, you know, I’m not sure how I look. Uh, you know, uh, what do you think? How do I look in this dress? Uh, should I, should I wear slacks on or something more casual? What you’re wearing is perfect. And Mama, Try not to be so nervous, okay?

You and Abe, you’ve been out a few times. And you’ve had fun, right? Yes, yes, yes, but uh, tonight is different because we’re not meeting in a restaurant. My lovely dear Abraham, he’s coming here to the place that we once shared. The place where he left, because it was just too much for him and if it, well, if it still is, I’m just worried that I might push him away for good.

Yes, Mom, Chad and I finally talked about what he walked in on the other night. It turns out he’s not interested in getting married any time soon.

No, of course not. I told him that I was totally on the same page.

Yes, I was lying, but what else am I supposed to say? I don’t want to come across as desperate. Hang on, I gotta go. He’s coming back.

Hey! Where are the kids? Ah, well, they, um, they begged me to stay at Doug and Julie’s for the night, so. It’s just gonna be the two of us for dinner. Oh. Well, um, you wanna order in? You know, I was thinking maybe we should go out. Bistro. That sounds great. I’ll, uh, I’ll just grab my purse and you call for a table.

Okay. Hey, Steph. Um, I was thinking about our conversation. Which conversation? About marriage. Oh. Uh huh. And I just, I, I, I don’t want things to be weird. I want to make sure that we’re good. We’re good. Like I said, I don’t want to rush into anything either. Are you sure? Positive. Okay. Alright. Then let’s hit the bistro.

Beautiful, thank you. Alright, got us a res at the bistro. Don’t you have like a little assistant who can do that for you? You know, call up the bistro and say, Hi, Mr. Kriakis is coming in. I’d like a very special table for a very special friend. Maybe next time. Oh, so you’re committing to a second date? I am down with that.

Even though I’m not exactly sure of one thing. Uh oh, what’s that? Well, I know we got the whole gold digging thing cleared up, but…

But…

You’re not using me to make Brady jealous, are you? Okay, okay. I’m gonna tell this to you like this. Brady and I just picked up our son from California because he got kicked out of school. Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. Yeah, and of course Brady blames me because Brady’s Brady and I’m me. And if you had flown with us on the plane all the way over here, you would not be questioning my feelings for that man.

Okay. So you got in a fight about your kid? We got in a fight about everything. I’m surprised the Air Marshal didn’t arrest us. What the hell did they do to get poked out of school? I don’t know. According to him, it was some prank gone wrong. Played by the victim of overbearing parents and intolerant school administrators.

Sounds like my kind of kid. Sorry, I’m kidding. Um, where is he now? He’s with Brady. Hopefully Salem will be good for him. And all the drama will be in the past.

Where’d you get that? Maybe you haven’t followed the news, but weed is legal in this state. Yeah, weed is legal in California too, but it doesn’t mean they let teenagers into dispensaries to buy it. Are you gonna read me the local bylaws or? Do you want to get high?

I, um, could stand to chill out a bit. Me too.

Hang on.

There is a cop right over there. Okay, so maybe this wasn’t such a good idea. No, it’s just an idea we save for later. Do you want to hang out sometime? You and me? Sure. Put your number in.

Hi, it’s Tate. Now I’ve got mine. Tate. Holly. Cop’s still there.

It’s too bad. I still owe you for finding my bag. You’ll have plenty of time to make it up to me. Yeah, well, thanks again. You’re welcome.

Oh. Huh. What are you doing?

So you’re nervous about going back to your old place? Yes. You know, I, I lived there before I moved in with Steven Kayla Johnson, and I had to face the weight of Paulina’s expectations. And now I’m concerned that if I’m. I’m alone there with her. Well, once again, uh, those expectations might rise to the surface.

Abe, I’m sure Paulina isn’t gonna pressure you. Have you met the woman?

Okay, uh, historically, I used to come to you with the problems and you would dish out the sage advice. So I will, uh, I’ll give it a try. I use all the dice I can get, so… What do you say? Just go with the flow. Live in the moment and don’t get caught up in the expectations. Because there are worse things than having a wonderful woman madly in love with you.

You know, I may not remember you, but I’m starting to understand why we were so close. I’m glad we had this time together. Me too. And you mind if I give you a hug? Oh, not at all. Okay. Oh.

Good luck Eve. And I hope to talk to you again soon. Oh, you will, for sure. For sure. Oh, yes. Thank you. Okay. Bye

now.

So, you’re going to do the carrots and not the asparagus with the lamb? You sure about that? Look, Chanel, your mom has got this, okay? It’s our job to stay out of her way. Thank you, Johnny. Have a good time. Mm hmm.

What? What is it, baby girl? Uh, Mama, try to remember that. Abe’s memory, it may be spotty or whatever, but… His heart is the same, and somewhere deep down his love for you is still there. It’s just waiting to resurface again. And when it does, it is going to be just as strong as it was before. Maybe even stronger.

Oh, Chanel. You know, sometimes you drive me crazy. Sometimes, you sure know the right thing to say. Well, you know, I know it’s gonna work out. Because… Just look at Chanel and me. And we found our way back to each other. Because it was meant to be. Same as you and Abe. Oh. Come here, you two! Oh! You might need to come back over here and repeat that same speech to Abram.

Let me know. Okay, now get, okay. I’ve got a date and I’ve got you prepared for. Okay, okay. Go on.

So, Ava’s seeing Pauline. She’s like, yes! And it’s a pretty big deal. Because they won’t be on neutral territory like they were for their previous days. So obviously that could lead to something other than, you know, a goodnight kiss. Well, we can only hope. She’s so excited. She really is, but she’s very nervous too.

But that’s understandable. You know, knowing Pauline as I do, she is so full of fun, she’s so vibrant, and even if Abe doesn’t get his memory back, I think he might fall in love with her all over again. Oh, yeah. Well, and speaking of love, I, I talked to Chad. Yeah, he was talking about his feelings for Stephanie.

I understand they’re very happy together. Yes, yes, they are. They are. I just hope that that continues.

Teresa! Hey, Cuts! Hi! I didn’t know you were still in Salem. I guess you meant it when you said you were sticking around. Yeah, well, things have changed. A little. What? What’s going on? It’s a long story, but Tate’s in town, too. Oh, really? Is he here with you tonight? No, he’s with Brady. Oh, well, you shouldn’t have to eat alone.

Why don’t you, why don’t you join us? Oh, I’m actually, um, I’m expecting someone. He’s just parking the car. Oh, there he is.

Chad. Steph. Good to see you guys. You too. This guy was going to spend the night working, but I wore him down. So now he’s having dinner with me. Well, that’s great. I’m going to use the ladies. You want to come with me? I’ll tell you about Tate. Sure. I’ll be right back.

So, um, Stephanie filled me in on everything going on with you and your family. Uh, you okay? Yeah, yeah, I mean it hasn’t fully sunk all the way in yet, but um, I’m rolling with it. Your dad is not really my biological dad. Didn’t see that coming. Well, I’m, I mean, for what it’s worth, you know, I, I, um, I went through something pretty similar when I found out Stefano was my father.

Um, I’m probably one of the few people who actually knows what you’re going through. Yeah, well, I guess so. So I guess, I’m just, what I’m saying is, I know we’ve had our issues. You know, but I’m here if, hey, if you want help or whatever. I appreciate it, man. Thank you, Chad, seriously. Yeah.

So, um, Teresa. Yeah, she just had to uproot her son, drag him to Salem. So I guess we’re all just dealing with the fact that our lives are being turned upside down.

Oh my God. Oh my God. I am so sorry. We were just, we were talking about hanging out and we were standing really close to each other. I just thought, don’t, don’t worry about it. I feel bad. I feel like a jerk. I just, I didn’t mean to. Tate, it’s fine. Really. Look, I’m cool with being friends. Okay. But I’m kind of in love with somebody already.

Oh. Oh, oh, so you’re with someone. Actually, we haven’t gone out or anything, but I’m pretty sure he likes me too. At least I hope so. Hey, that’s great. That’s great. Good for you. Yeah. So, friends? Uh, yeah, friends. I mean, I don’t have any other friends in this town, so. Well, we’ll hang out soon, and it’ll be fun.

Not awkward at all. I promise. Yeah. So, uh, have you, have you known this guy a long time? Pretty much forever.

Okay, let me see if I can find this movie. Please tell me it is not another foreign film with weird dream sequences and subtitles. No, no. In fact, tonight we are going to be watching a brilliant piece of world cinema called… Clueless. Oh, wait, wait. Clueless? Clueless. I love that movie. But isn’t that a little too normal for you?

Oh, come on. I’m not a movie snob. Alicia Silverstone, Paul Rudd, awesome 90’s soundtrack. Okay, now you’re speaking my language. I’m gonna go get some popcorn started.

Okay. Is something wrong? It’s, it’s gonna go okay for a moment. Right? No. It’s gonna go great.

Olena, girl, who are you so anxious about? This is, this is just your husband. This is your incredible, loving husband. Oh!

Abraham. Hello, Pauline. Um, you look, you look beautiful. Thank you. Thank you. You, you look pretty great yourself. Come here. Oh, come here. Come here. Oh, I’ll take that. Ah. Hmm. Well this, oh, well this, this was an excellent choice. Oh yeah, that was recommended by the man in the store. Ah, well, you know, this stuff, uh huh.

Uh, yeah, I am, um, Oh, I was just so looking forward to tonight. Oh, me too, me too. Oh, something just smells delicious. Lamb chops. You were always very partial to them, so I thought, you know, I thought that it might bring back… Oh, well, you know, you always liked them, so there’s a good chance that you’ll like them again.

I better decant the wine. Oh, you know what, uh, let me do it. Let me do it.

What? How did you know where that was?

Well, I

wasn’t even thinking. I just wanted to decanter and believe it was just a guess. You bought that decanter after we were married. Did I? Mm hmm. We could decide where to put it. Then you decided that we should keep it there. I’m sorry, I… I don’t remember. Oh, well. I’m taking it as a sign. And with more good things to come.

You know, uh, I’ll decant the wine.

I know your father doesn’t have his memory back, but sitting with him, ah, just, it was like old times. Yeah, me too, Brandon. I love you. Alright.

Tate? Yeah? Oh, it’s, it’s me, Nicole. Cool. Oh, oh, right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, I remember. Sorry, it took me a second. Yeah, no, it’s okay. It’s, it’s, it’s been a while. I only recognized you because I’ve seen so many pictures, you know, that your parents post. Right, yeah. I, I didn’t know you were in town. Yeah, it wasn’t really a planned thing.

Um, I was kind of forced to come back, but… Oh, so you’re not happy about it. Did something happen in California? Long story, I’m sure my dad will tell you all about it. Okay, well I’m glad to see you. I know it’s not easy moving and leaving all your friends behind. Yeah, yeah, but uh, I did just meet this nice girl in the park, so…

Oh, well that was fast. Yeah, but I um, I thought that… What? Never mind, never mind, I just feel really stupid. Uh, but you don’t need to hear about it, so… Oh, T, come on. Why did you feel stupid? Because, I kinda, I kinda thought she was into me. But, uh, she shot me down pretty quick. Sorry to hear that. Yeah, yeah, turns out she’s, uh, she’s into somebody else, so.

New lease on life, thanks to surgery at the hospital for sick…

Johnny! Hi! Holly, hey! Whatcha doin Uh, just actually getting ready to watch a movie. Hmm. Yeah. Shoulda known since you’re such a movie expert. I don’t know if I would say that I’m an expert, but I’m a big fan of them. The good ones. Right. Well, I’m a fan too, I just don’t really know much about them. Oh, man, I’ve got…

A ton of books about movies. You can borrow one whenever you want. Thanks. Yeah. That’s really nice of you.

So, what are you watching tonight? Um, tonight, we are actually Wait a second, shall you try this? I have been working on this new blend of salt and spices. Hey, look who’s joining us. Holly, you remember Chanel, right? Are you guys, like, back together? We are. That’s great. I’m really happy for you. Thank you. So, Alex and Teresa, huh?

I’m not surprised. I mean, Alex was her type even before he came into the Kiriakis fortune. So now… Huh. Hope it works out. I guess one thing about Theresa, she’s motivated. I wouldn’t wanna be in her way. Thank you. What? For? Convincing me to come out. I mean, harassing you until you came? Mm-hmm. Yes. Yes. That, and I’m glad you did.

To be honest, it feels like the earth hasn’t really stopped moving from underneath my feet. It just feels easy to kind of bury myself in the work. Well, like I said, work can wait. You needed to get out. Have some fun. I did. Truly. So thank you again.

To working so hard for this. Cheers. Cheers.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, well, what are you so pleased about? Check this out. A warrant out for Vivian Allemane? Mm hmm. They got that psycho on possession of a deadly weapon and parole violation. Oh, that is great news. Now, if Vivian goes to jail, Maggie gets her house back. Oh, you haven’t heard. Victor actually had a new will.

Maggie tossed old Viv out the door yesterday. That is even better news. Yes. Yes. It is for Maggie, of course. And also, I cannot wait to ditch that rock hard mattress at the Salem Inn for good. Assuming that Maggie is still okay with Justin and me moving back in.

Come on, Maggie. Oh, Justin, how are you? Hanging in there. Hanging in there. Well, what can I do for you? Well, I was wondering, um, actually, Bonnie was wondering, now that Vivian is out of the picture, whether you might welcome us back into the family fold. Oh, Justin, of course. I mean, I’ve been so distracted.

Otherwise, I would have called you myself and urged you to come back. Especially since, uh, I’m gonna be glad for the company. You know, I’m gonna be spending more time at home now than I anticipated. What do you mean?

Wait, you’re out at Titan? What happened? Eh, you know, call it karma. Maybe taking too much pleasure in kicking Vivian to the curb. Because Alex did the same to me.

Vivian, I just got back to town and Chad told me all about your plans for Titan and I want absolutely nothing to do with them, so I am here in person to tell you that I quit.

Kate. Hey, may I come in? Yeah, of course. Draw me flowers? Um, actually those are flowers that you sent me to congratulate me on the birth of my grandchild, but I thought I would give them back and let you and Stephanie enjoy them. Oh, you didn’t like them? I think they’re beautiful, it just turns out that…

Victoria wasn’t really my grandchild.

Oh, hi, sweetie. I’m sorry that I had to get off the phone so quickly, but Kate was in quite a state. Well, she just found out that Philip is going to New York with Chloe. Yeah, well, she’s concerned, you can well imagine. No, I did try to talk her down, I’m just not sure how effective I was. Thanks. Say, speaking of offspring, is there any word from Brady since he left for California?

Welcome to Global Airlines. You only travel in style. Theresa, would you hurry up, please?

Pull your jets, I’m coming already, jeez. Hey, we’re in L. A. for two days. I mean, why would anybody need this much luggage? I don’t get it. Anyone? I’m not just anyone. I’m Teresa Donovan.

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

So, Victor did have a new will. Thank God. Oh, thank God. Thanks to the lawyers. Thank Judge Judy, whoever. Maggie gets to keep her house and her inheritance. Wow, that must have been a relief for the whole family. It was, um, although it came at a price. What’s that? It cost Justin his son.

Alex, what are you doing here? Well, according to the nameplate, this is my office. Your office? I guess you haven’t heard. I’m the new CEO of Titan. But don’t you work at Basic Black? And what about Vivian? Well, as it turns out, Uncle Vi Turns out Victor did have a will. He left half of everything to Maggie and half to me.

To you? And what about the rest of your family? I mean, I know Victor was your great uncle and he loved you, but… He wasn’t my great uncle. What?

Victor Kiriakis was my father.

I will talk to Alex. Justin, don’t. This isn’t right. He fired you? Oh, not exactly. Alex and I had a misunderstanding. You see, I just assumed that I would stay on as CEO, since Victor passed him over and gave me the job in the first place. Well, he didn’t see it that way because in his eyes, since Victor gave him controlling interest of the company, that meant he would get the top job.

That wasn’t Victor’s intent. If it was, he would have put it in writing. Oh, well, you know, it doesn’t matter. What do you mean it doesn’t matter? Alex told me the board was on his side. And even if they put it to a vote, that they would select him. He threatened you with a board vote. Well, it wasn’t really a threat.

He offered to let me stay on in a supporting role. But, you know, I decided I would just bow out gracefully. I’m so sorry, Maggie. Are you sure there’s nothing I can do? No, but thank you. Damn! I can’t believe Alex would do this. And I’m even more appalled that Victor would do this. Did you? To me, to all of us.

Should we, uh, get you a motorized cart? Maybe a Sherpa or something? I’m dying at first. I’m just looking for a place to get a coffee. Theresa, we’re on a three and a half hour flight. I think you ran the flight attendant about ten times. Do you still need some coffee? No, I think it was those salty pretzels or something.

Why are you in such a hurry anyway? I want to get home. That’s all. Uh, what about waiting for our son? I don’t know what’s keeping him because he just had a bag in the overhead bin, so I don’t know where he is. Sorry, I was, uh, talking to the flight attendant. You know, the blonde one? Kept offering us snacks.

Yeah, yeah, what were you trying to do, get her number, Tate? No, no, we were just talking, but she, she happens to be from Salem, so I was asking her what kind of fun things there are to do around here. Mm hmm, and then you got her number, right? Can you not? Can you not do this right now?

He gets it from you. Please proceed

to Sarah let Rex think the baby was his when she knew it was Anders all along? No, no, no. He knew from the start and he just gallantly volunteered to put his name on the birth certificate to protect Sarah and the baby. Okay, but did he have to marry her? No, of course he didn’t have to marry her. He wanted to.

He still has feelings for her? Well, clearly. Although he denies that’s the reason he made the grand gesture.

Okay, well, um, the truth is out. So now what? I don’t know. Now I am stuck with the daughter in law, I can’t stand, and Rex is in Xander Cook’s crosshairs. I’m sorry. That sounds messy. Yeah. Except now I know why Rex was keeping me at arm’s length. He just didn’t want me to get too close to a grandchild that wasn’t mine.

My God. All these years. All these years. How could Victor do that? How could he let Justin believe that Alex was his son? That is the burning question. I mean, come on, I get the whole truth will set you free thing and all, but it just would have been a whole hell of a lot easier if Victor had just taken the secret to his grave.

How’s Justin taking it? About how you’d expect. I think that Victor knew you would be a good father to Alex. A better father than he was capable of being. I certainly tried, but all of this would have been so much easier if the truth had come out 30 years ago. I know. I can’t even tell you, explain how this feels.

I mean, everything I thought I knew about my family, my relationship with Victor. My son? And why do it like this? After keeping it secret all these years? It just seems that spending time at Beau’s bedside changed Victor’s thinking. But all we have to go on is what he wrote in the new will. I mean, he left us so many questions.

Questions that we will never get the answers

to. Victor was your father? Yeah.

So, Justin is your… Cousin. And Sonny is not really my brother. Oh, Alex, of course he is. I mean, Vic and Joe are adopted. Did you ever think that they weren’t your real brothers? Yeah, but this is different. It doesn’t have to be. It does, though.

You know, Steph, I keep going over every single interaction I had with Uncle Vic. With my father. And I never would have guessed this in a million years.

So his will said that he wanted you to be CEO instead of Maggie? Not exactly. And that’s been a point of contention right now. Maggie said that if he wanted to put me in this position, then he would have done it while he was alive. Do you think that’s true? I don’t know.

I may never understand why he didn’t tell me. Why he waited until now to reveal the truth.

Maybe he thought all the money and the controlling interests of Titan would make up for all the lost years. Does it?

Sorry, stupid question. How, I, I can’t.

Nothing can make up for the fact that he lied to me. My whole

life. Jade. You’re 16 years old. So what? So what? That flight attendant was probably twice your age. There are, uh, laws, you know, covering this kind of stuff. Relax, okay? We just talked. And when I asked for her contact info, she shot me down. Extreme prejudice, I might add. Oh. Well, at least somebody’s thinking clearly.

I think you need to worry a little bit less about hitting on older women and maybe a little bit more on your future. Here we go. Yeah, yeah, here we go. Because I didn’t just bring you back to Salem for kicks, buddy. Okay, just because I got booted out of boarding school for bogus reasons. Bogus reasons? You, you, you pulled the fire alarm during exams.

Like I already explained, I didn’t think the alarm was going to cause all the sprinklers to go off and cause all that damage. No, you didn’t think at all. Well, that was good. Dad, that was serious. Did you, did you learn how to do that at the University of Fatherhood? The University of Fatherhood? Are you serious?

What is he talking about? We don’t need to go over this again, Brady. I think we do. Yeah. Obviously we do. Yeah, maybe we should go over it. Maybe we should go over some of the pranks that you pulled back in the day. Like, uh, kidnapping a goat and, uh, letting it loose in the halls. Well, from what I hear, your father wasn’t really much fun in school.

That’s wrong. I was a lot of fun in high school. And that goat, by the way, didn’t cause 50K in damage. I mean, they do eat a lot. Tate, the bottom line, this is not funny, alright? You did something really bad, you gotta pay for it. Aren’t you rich? I mean, not as rich as you were before you got kicked out of Great Grandad’s will, but still.

I’m not paying for this, buddy. You are. With what money, Dad? I’m 16, remember? Well, you’re gonna do a little something they call get a job. A job? Yeah, you’ve heard of them. Yeah, it’s a job. It’s like you do a task and people pay you for it. They give you a paycheck. Okay, he’s just a kid. He doesn’t have skills to…

He’s gonna learn. And I think I know exactly where he’s gonna do that.

So, I don’t care if Rex thinks I’m an overbearing and interfering mother. Ew. Never. Okay. The point is, I am not going to let Sarah Horton break his heart. Yeah, even if he did break hers first. I think you should stay out of it. Oh, that’s so funny. I don’t remember asking you for advice. I don’t care if you’re asking for it.

I’m giving it. You’re gonna make things worse. Who says? Says me. Someone who’s been through something very similar recently. What have I done to you recently? Surprisingly, nothing. Steven Kaler. Don’t tell me they don’t approve of you and Stephanie. Oh, quite the opposite. They cannot wait for us to get married.

What? Did they say that? Yeah, we were getting together for dinner and I walked in on Stephanie telling her mom, um, Of course I want to marry him. Do they know that you overheard that? Yeah. Yes, you know, she backtracked a bit and put it on her mom, and then Steve came in and basically asked what my intentions were.

Oh, thank God. That’s a lot of pressure. And, and, you know, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t know how to feel about it all because we haven’t been together that long. Okay, so this marriage idea, do you think that was Stephanie’s or Kayla and Steve’s? I don’t know. I don’t know. Did you talk about it? We danced around it a bit, and then, and then she had to go out of town for business.

Okay, so then it is possible she was just humoring her mom to keep her mom off her back. Yeah, I guess so. Okay, so let’s, let’s just forget about what Stephanie wants for a minute. Who do you want? Me. Mm hmm. You? Do you want to marry her?

I thought Vivian kicking us out of the house would be the worst thing that would happen after Victor’s death.

I know this is a shock and all, but… There may be some perks to the situation. You mean the job? The job. The money. The power. These are all things you’ve wanted, right? Sure. But not like this.

So I guess we’re not gonna be neighbors anymore. Why do you moving back into the mansion? Uh. I’m on the fence. Not really sure it would be all that fun for Maggie and I right now to… together. And if my dad and if Justin and Bonnie decide to move back into the house, that would be a little awkward, too.

Why? He’s still your dad, Alex. You two still love each other. Yeah. Well, I just don’t think I’d really be ready to live under the same roof with him right now.

Plus, if I move out of the apartment, I wouldn’t be able to use your shower anymore when mine craps off. I know you’d miss the hell out of that. Oh, desperately. Steph, if you still want to quit working for Titan, I totally understand. I don’t want to quit. Are you sure? We figured out our stuff. We’re friends, right?

I’d like to think so.

Alex, I’m really sorry you’re going through all of this.

I know that it hurts. You don’t have to act tough with me.

Thank you. But I’m not really feeling that tough right now.

Has Alex mentioned whether he wants to move back in? Not yet. I get the sense that he likes where he’s living now. To be honest, if Bonnie didn’t hate the Salem Inn, I’m not sure I’d be rushing to come back here either. Brings up a lot of complicated emotions, I’m sure. But, Justin, this is your family home.

Victor loved you. He would have wanted you here. And Alex is still your son, Justin. Nothing will ever change that.

Well, please, tell Justin that I’m thinking of him. And, and if there’s anything that Steve and I can do… Oh, thank you. I wish there were. But, the damage is already done.

God, look at Victor, still stirring the pot from beyond the grave. You can say that again. How’s Alex handling it? Well, he said all the right things to Justin, you know. That he’d always be his dad, etc, etc. But, knowing him, now that he’s the heir to the great Victor Kariakis, well… I’m afraid it might go to his head.

I imagine you’re right, , and now he’s a very rich, very eligible bachelor. I mean, not that he wasn’t already a hot commodity, didn’t judging by all the action he was getting, but now every single woman in town is gonna want to get their hooks in there. Know what I mean?

Oh,

I wish I was as sure as you, Maggie. That nothing will change between me and Alex. Justin, do you know the story of Mickey and our son, Mike? Oh, yeah. I’ve heard it. Yeah, I’ve heard about it. Well, let me refresh your memory. Many years ago, Mickey’s first wife, Laura, had an affair with his brother, Bill. Mickey wasn’t physically able to be a father.

So, when Laura became pregnant… Everyone knew it was Bill’s child. Everyone, except Mickey. Mickey raised Mike as his own for years. And then finally when the truth came out, it was difficult and was painful at first. But you know in the end… Nothing mattered. I mean, Mike, it was still and always was his son.

Biology, it didn’t matter. Go on, Iota. And it’s not going to matter with you, Justin. Because what matters is that you’ve raised Alex to be a fine young man. Some of the time. Justin, I understand that this feels… Like a, a, a terrible loss. Now trust me, you’re gonna get through it. I promise.

Let’s see if your Uncle Willem is around. Tate? Is that you? Hey Aunt Kayla, it’s good to see you. Oh my god, wow. It’s been so long. Are you on a break from school? Kinda. He was asked to leave. It was a mutual decision. He was kicked out. Thanks. Dad, do you want to post it on all your social media? I mean, I’m sure every stranger in this town would love to know.

Uh, Bonnie, Bonnie, do you know, uh, Brady’s son, Tate? Bonnie, Lockhart Kiriakis. I mean, father’s cousins. Um, we’re related. I think. Anyway, welcome back to Sam! Thanks. Just to make sure that you know, I got kicked out of school. Yeah, I heard.

Uh, and, and, uh, and this is, uh, my niece, Theresa, uh, Kimberly’s daughter, if you forgot. Hello, Bonnie. Hello. Theresa, always good to meet another Brady. So, as we’re roaming around, I wanted to talk to him about this one getting a job here. Ah, joining the family business, huh? Yeah, yeah, it’s news to me. Well, he caused a little damage at school before he left, so it’s time that he pays for it.

What am I even going to do around here? Wait tables or something? No, you’re not going to wait tables. You have to be 18 to wait tables, so you’re probably going to bust tables or you’re going to wash dishes. Wash dishes? Anything. That Roman says you’re going to do, you’re going to do. Well, I mean, at least you won’t be scaling the fish like I had to do when I was your age.

Is this really necessary? He’s going to be working till he’s 90 at the rate that Roman pays him. But he will work till he’s 90. Come on, he just moved to a new school in a new town. He can multitask, Teresa. Uh, well, you know, Roman actually is out. Okay, then I will text him. Can I at least get some lunch while we’re waiting?

Yeah, sure, sure, sure. Grab a menu. I should go. Bonnie, Bonnie, Bonnie, wait up. I did want to talk to you. It’s been on my mind and I’ve been a little distracted with what’s been going on lately. So, my grandfather’s briefcase. What was in it? The one the ISA recovered from the wreckage. Oh, uh…

As it turns out, uh, Victor did write a new will just before he died. To replace the one that he destroyed. Mm hmm. Um, okay. Is that it? For starters, uh, Vivian Alamein got exactly what she deserved. Absolutely nothing. Good. That is good news. Uh, and then, um, he, he left half of everything to Maggie. Even better.

So, so does that mean that the other half goes to the, uh, to the rest of the family? No. The other half went to the son no one knew he had.

Alex Kyriakis.

Sure, I’ll answer some questions. Yes, I am the

new CEO of Titan.

Yes, it turns out I am Victor’s son.

How do I feel about it?

No comment.

I mean, honestly, I, I, I never, I never really thought about marriage until I overheard them talking about it. Really? You’re living together, she’s helping you raise your children, right? Oh, now you’re starting to sound like Caleb. Oh, no. Don’t. Please, I am sorry, because I don’t want you to think that I’m trying to pressure you at all.

Okay? Especially because I know what a big step that was for you to think about getting serious about Stephanie in the first place. Yes, it was a, it was a huge step. And honestly, it’s still kind of strange living with somebody who isn’t Abby. And she’s only been gone for 16 months, and I thought I was gonna spend the rest of my life with that woman.

I know. I’m sorry. I really am. You have to take all the time you need.

Oh, hi. Hey. Am I interrupting something? Hey, welcome home.

Hey, thanks. Good to be home. Hi, Kate. Hey, Stephanie. And of course you’re not interrupting. Oh, never. Did you see these flowers? These beautiful flowers that Chad got for you? Ooh, beautiful. Anyway, I should be going. You… You have a great day. Hey. Bye. Thanks, Kate. Goodbye. Um, the flowers are amazing. What’s the occasion?

Okay, I gotta, um, I have to confess, actually, um, I bought them for Kate. But they’re yours now. I’m not offended by secondhand flowers.

I missed you like crazy. Same. You got my text? Yeah, did you uh, tell me when you quit? I stopped by Titan, but it didn’t exactly go as planned.

Thank you, Maggie, for that perspective. I’d forgotten that you lived through a similar experience. It wasn’t perfect, but in the end, Mickey and Mike… Well, it was a beautiful love story. And they were father and son in every way that counted. Just like you and Alex. But I know why you’re not sure about moving back in here.

It’s not that I don’t appreciate your offer. I know. But right now this family is hurting. Which means it’s so important. That we rally together. Please?

Oh, uh, hold on. Alex is Grandad’s son? Wait, wait, so does that change who he was to me? No. No, no, Tate. You’re, you’re good. See, um, Brady’s your dad. And his mother was, um, Somebody needs to make a family tree. You know? Oh, now I really gotta go. Okay. Uh, pleasure to meet y’all, alright? Listen, love to Justin, okay?

Thank you, honey. Okay. Love you. Bye. Gotta go. Kayla, I just need to get this straight in my head. My grandfather announced in his will that, that Alex was his son? No, no, but there was to Victor.

A letter? What kind of letter?

Oh!

Wow, I thought that that briefcase was going to have, like… On the net for prison students. Anyway, it seems like there’s a lot going on around here. Maybe we should focus on this whole job thing later. Yeah, yeah, nice try. Do you think that uh, Aunt Maggie is going to share her new fortune with the rest of the family?

You pay for the sprinklers. Nah, again, that’s a really nice try. Mom, can you talk to dad about this whole dishwashing thing? Um, you know, actually, uh, there’s something that I have to take care of myself. Seriously? You’re leaving? Right now? Yeah, but you, you should wait here for, for Uncle Roman. You don’t need to stick around, do you?

No, we’ll be, we’ll be fine. Oh, really? I assume that Tate will be staying with you at John and Marlene’s while I figure out my living situation. Theresa, I gotta run and buy them first, obviously. Bye, love you, love you. Bye, love you. Yeah, thanks, alright. Did she say her living situation? Like she’s staying in Salem?

Shh. We hadn’t really discussed it. Right. Well, Stephanie told me that Theresa did mention it. And, I mean, now that I’m here, why, why would she leave? I mean, like, where else would she want to be?

So I get to eat here for free, right? Like, whenever I want? No. Not exactly, no. So I have to scrub dishes AND pay? Hey, listen. Listen. This is not the way that I would have chosen for you to come live with me, alright? But I want you to understand something. I am actually very happy to see you, and I’m glad you’re here, buddy.

And, and, and Rachel, my god, she’s still looking forward to seeing her big bro. I, I can, I can drive you there. Let’s go. How’s she doing? Thanks for asking. I’ll tell you, I don’t really know how she’s doing because I don’t see a lot of her since Kristen got custody. So, I’m her way in, huh? No. Tate, no. No, no.

It’s cool. It’s cool. We don’t have a house. Really? Where are you going? Where are you going? I haven’t, I haven’t been to Salem in forever. I thought I’d, I don’t know, take a walk around the neighborhood. Unless I’m on lockdown or something. No, you’re not on lockdown. It’s fine. I just, I would like for you to see your Uncle Roman so we can talk to him about this.

You can just text him. You can just text him. I’m gonna go. I’ll see you later, though. Have a good night, Dad. Yeah. See you in a bit. Whoa, that was fast. Oh, yeah, I had the bags in my car. We all knew Maggie would see us. Home sweet home. Yeah. You know, um, I was thinking that, uh, Well, I was hoping that maybe Alex might move back in.

I mean, now that the house is 50 percent his, I’m sure he’d be a little uncomfortable. Yeah. Considering he just ousted Maggie to take over as CEO of Titan. What? Mm hmm. Oh, no, he didn’t. Oh, no. Yes, he did. Yeah, I thought maybe he might get a little big for his bitches. I just had no idea it would happen this fast.

Yeah, let’s just hope that he gets over himself soon, before anyone

else gets hurt. Hello, Alex. Teresa, you’re back. How’s Tate? He’s okay. With his dad. You know, the guy who humiliated me in Greece, if not for you, who welcomed me with open arms, would have made my trip a total disaster. Well, I’m glad I could be of service.

Speaking of Greece, I, um, heard what happened, you know, with your great uncle’s will. It’s wild, right? I mean… Look at me. Yeah, right, I know, look at you.

And obviously I had no idea that that bombshell was in that briefcase that my dad gave me. You must be, you must be so overwhelmed. Yeah, a little bit. Are you taking care of yourself? Are you eating? Are you sleeping? Are you having fun? I’m doing my best. I don’t believe you.

I will tell you what. I’m free for dinner tonight. And I have been told that I give really good fun.

What do you say? So Alex is Victor’s son? Apparently.

I’m surprised Kate didn’t say anything. She may not know yet. Yeah, she probably got too much going on with her own son to worry about Victor’s. So, is he running Titan again? Yep. You gonna report to him? Yep.

Hey, listen, I know, um, the other night there was some weirdness. Yeah, look, about that. Like, like I said, my mom was pressuring me to tell her how serious we were. All he was saying when he walked in was that I could see myself getting married to you. Someday. It’s not like I was dropping a hint that I wanted to get married to you now.

I mean, good. But I, I, I… I don’t think we need to rush anything. I mean, I like the way things are. Don’t you? Absolutely.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, good. I caught you before you left. What are you doing here? I was about to change. I have an important meeting at DiMera’s today. Is that what you’re wearing? Just get out of here, okay? It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing because I am the one that’s going to be sitting in that meeting. Excuse me.

Well, now that Maggie kicks me out of Titan, the only place for me to be is by my son’s side.

That’s better.

Oh, Maggie. What are you doing here?

Hello? Hi, can I get some service, please? My boyfriend is lying in bed with a gunshot wound. Who do you have to screw around here to get a pillow fluffed?

Phew.

You. Oh, thank God. You’re finally awake. I could kill you for worrying me like that.

You bastard. Mr. DiMera, I hope you don’t mind your butler let me in. Of course not. I take it you’re here with some follow up questions regarding Dimitri’s shooting. Actually, just one. Why did you lie to me?

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

Well, hello, Leo. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Don’t you hello, Leo me. I know what you did. Excuse me? Save it! Gwen told me about your diabolical plan to kill my boyfriend.

Oh, I didn’t realize you were still here. Oh! Come back. No, no, no, no, no. Don’t rush off on my accounts.

And you went through with it! Even after Gwen promised me you’d called it off. I did call it off. Oh, please. What, are you going to tell me that you had a change of heart with Dimitri lying in a hospital bed? You talk a good game, Kristen. What about all the horrible things that you have done in your life that you have never actually killed anyone?

Not that I know of. Not personally, anyway. And I really don’t think

you’re going to start today. For some measly money.

I did not shoot Dimitri. I swear to you I didn’t. I don’t believe you. But even if I did, and it wasn’t you or Gwen that tried to kill him, then who the hell was it?

There, there, Gabriella. No need to worry your pretty little head about business. Now that Mother’s here, you can just lie in bed and eat bonbons. Just like the real housewives of Salem. Ah, that rapier alimane wit. Although I hate to disappoint you, Viv. But no matter how much you try to charm us with your humor and your generosity of spirit, you are not going to take my job.

Is that sinking in? And I also wouldn’t get too comfortable in this house either. Gabriela, now that you’re my, uh, New daughter in law. Can I give you a little maternal advice? This ought to be good. Don’t underestimate me. Quaking in my boots. Well, you should be because I’m not leaving this house unless it’s feet first.

That can be arranged. I’m staying here, and if you get in my way, you’ll regret it.

Like I said, my wife and I were upstairs when we heard a gunshot. We came down into this room and found my nephew Dimitri on the floor, bleeding. Then we saw the weapon, the one that I showed you. Yeah, I remember.

We dusted it for prints. We found Dimitri’s. But, you know, what was also interesting is that we also found your sister Kristen’s prints on them, too. Great. Mystery solved. It must have been Kristen who shot him. Except that she didn’t. You see, the prints, they don’t even matter. As it turns out, because you know why?

The bullet that the doctors dug out of Dimitri didn’t match this gun. Dimitri was shot with another gun.

You were shot. Isn’t really much of a surprise though, considering what an absolute dirtbag you are. It’s bound to happen eventually. Excuse me? Oh, come now, don’t tell me that the bullet’s suddenly giving you amnesia.

Okay, fine. I’ll remind you. Shall I?

You lied to me. And you got me to marry you. So that you could inherit the von Leutschner fortune, all the while having an affair with my best friend. And that was a despicable thing to do. Gwen, I am so sorry. Oh. You’re sorry, are you? You’re sorry just isn’t going to cut it.

For this room.

Sorry. I didn’t expect to see you here. Vivian, uh, certainly makes sure to mark her territory, doesn’t she? Oh my god, that woman. I can’t believe she surfaced again. Yeah, it’s always such fun when she does. But now that we know that Victor did, in fact, have a will, I had the distinct pleasure of ousting her out of both the house and the company and taking the job of CEO back.

Right. Well, I’m glad to hear that Vivian’s out of the picture, and I wish I could have been there to watch you kick her to the curb. But… But? Victor… My father, he left me in charge of Titan. What? No. Yes, yes, he did. When he named me in his will. Which I happen to have right here.

You brought Victor’s will? I thought in case I needed proof that I had been named CEO. But you haven’t. Victor didn’t name a CEO in his will.

The other 50 percent of my estate, including controlling interest in Titan, shall go to my son. Controlling interest. So you see, Victor may not have specifically named me CEO in this, but he clearly spelled out his wishes. But Alex, he spelled out his wishes when he was alive. He gave me the job. He could have given you the job, but he didn’t.

I mean, don’t you think if he would have wanted you to be CEO after his death, that he would have mentioned it? Maggie,

I don’t know. Maybe he was in a hurry when he made out the will. Maybe he didn’t think it was necessary because he gave me controlling interest. What else? Which means I am in control. Please, no, don’t fight me on this, Maggie. Really. I have considered my options very carefully. I want the job.

So Dimitri was shot with another gun. Is that how you want to play this, Mr. DiMera? Because if you know anything about what really happened to Dimitri, and you’re trying to hide it from me, believe me, I will get to the bottom of this, and I will not hesitate to lock you up. Jada, Jada, you cannot lock him up.

Okay, he had nothing to do with this. Oh, really? Yes, the person that shot Dimitri von Leuschner was Vivian Alamein, my mother in law.

Lipstick? Wallet? Where’s my gun?

Vivian shot Dimitri? Quit this.

I don’t know who shot Dimitri. And spare me the righteous indignation, will you? You are hardly in a position to judge anyone. Considering that when you were screwing my nephew, you were screwing over your so called best friend. Oh, God. I think that high horse you’re on is giving you the vapors. We both know you don’t care about Gwen, only your share of Dimitri’s inheritance, which you blackmailed him out of, by the way.

So spare me the concerned gal pal act, save it for your bratty little daughter. Although, I don’t even think she’d believe it. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go check on my boyfriend. Oh.

Gwen, darling, where did you find that? Darling, somebody left it out on a tray. Can you believe that? I mean, they really, really ought to be more careful. Because somebody could, um, really get hurt. And what are you planning to do with it? What do I plan to do with it? Um, I don’t know. I had a few ideas. I thought about what to do.

And then I remembered how Leo just wouldn’t shut up about that magic penis of yours.

So I thought, perhaps I could work a little bit of magic of

my own and make it disappear.

Please Gwen, you don’t, you don’t, you don’t. You know, I was thinking, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the old MP myself. Now, I will admit that I was equally infatuated with it, although now I’m not really remembering why. Perhaps… It’ll refresh my memory. Um, Gwen.

There it is. It really is a thing of beauty, isn’t it?

Hmm. I suppose, besides the title and the money, of course, that thing of beauty is why Leo fell absolutely mad for you, although I think you would admit that that is a pretty shallow reason to fall in love with someone.

I wonder how lovable he would find you. If he and Matthew Perry there were no longer friends. Help! Help! Sure, sure. Help! It’ll only take a minute! Gwen,

what the hell are you doing? What the hell are you doing? I am telling the truth! Look, I know, I know you want to protect your mother, but you are my husband! If I have to choose between you and her, I’m gonna choose you every single time. I am not gonna let you go down for your out of control, gun toting, lunatic of a mother.

Okay, that is not fair. My mother may be out of control at times, but she is not gun toting. Uh, has anybody seen my gun?

Alex,

I understand that ever since you found out that your father isn’t Justin, that Victor was your father. Your world has been turned upside down. Yeah, it has. And I’m still dealing with that. But that doesn’t change the fact that Titan is my birthright. Victor told me a while back he thought I had a killer instinct.

He knew that I was cut out for the top job. And I know what I’m entitled to. Is this payback, Alex? Excuse me? I mean, when I fired you. I mean, now that the tables are turned, is this your retribution? No, Maggie, of course not. Yes, it’s true that I didn’t agree with some of the things that you were doing to run this place, but…

That’s not why I’m taking the job. I’m not trying to act out of retaliation. I’m taking the job because Victor… It was my father. And this is clearly what he wanted. She can’t…

You can’t give that to her. It’s my property. Mother, you are not helping your case. What case? Dimitri was threatening my son. He was threatening to kill him. I almost went through that once before. I couldn’t endure it again. Besides, it’s not illegal to shoot someone in self defense. Okay, what my mother is trying to tell you, in her own inimitable way, is the truth.

Yes, Dimitri was trying to kill me, and Gabby. And he likely would have, and we wouldn’t be standing here right now had my mother not intervened. And that is why I had a hard time turning her in. And we also want to press charges against Amitri von Bleichner. Yes, definitely. You’re willing to testify this?

Absolutely. Yes, we both will. We can corroborate each other’s story. Okay, well this might mitigate your attempted murder charge. However, you lied to the police, and possessing a gun is in violation of your parole. So, I will be speaking to your parole

officer.

John, listen to me. I saw her with my own eyes. Susan is alive. No, no, no. I know we’d all been meant to believe otherwise, but… Uh, yeah. I’ve got to go. Kate just walked in. I’ll get back to you. Bye. Hey, sorry to barge in like this. Your assistant said you were on a break, though. No, that’s quite all right. Um, did you hear about Susan?

Yeah, yeah, I did. She’s alive. That’s good for her. Um, I need to talk about Phillip. Is he alright? He’s fine. I’m not. He’s leaving town. Who’s Chloe Lin?

Wait a minute! Gwen! Gwen! Put down the scalpel! Look, I am sorry that you feel betrayed, but this is insane. I can’t let you hurt him.

This is gonna hurt you a lot more than it’s gonna hurt him. No, it’s gonna hurt us both. I mean, hurt us, it’s gonna destroy us. And it’s going to destroy you. You wouldn’t be able to live with yourself if you did what you’re about to do.

Gwenny, you are not a violent person.

I know that you have had a hard life. And like me, you have gone to extremes at times to get what you thought you needed or to get revenge against people who have hurt you. But this, this is cruel, and this is out of character for you. Because you are a kind and decent person. And looking at you now, about to inflict this kind of pain on someone?

About to ruin someone’s life in the most horrific way? Even that look in your eyes, Gwenny.

It’s like you’re not the person I know and love. It is breaking my heart. You have no heart. You know that isn’t true.

I am not trying to make excuses, Gwenny. I’m not trying to make excuses.

And I am miserable. A lot of the time. And people don’t know that because I use humor. To cover up how much I hate myself. You’re just trying to you. No, I’m trying to make you realize that I never meant to hurt you. Ever. It’s my desperate need for love that caused me to betray you. And you want to get back at somebody?

Get back at me. Because I hurt you more than Dimitri did. You got that right.

You were supposed to be my, my best friend.

And Dimitri, well, yes, I’m used to romances falling apart, but you, you…

We were supposed to be forever. I thought we were going to grow old together. I thought we were gonna comfort each other, I thought we were gonna make each other love. I thought so too.

And then I did what I always do. I don’t know if this is therapy speak, but I sabotaged myself. Because I felt like I had finally found love. Found a way to be happy. And that made me horribly selfish. So I sabotaged the only friendship that has ever meant anything to me.

I wish we had been honest with you from the start.

I guess I was just hoping, stupidly, so stupidly, that there was just some way we could all get what we wanted out of this.

I know that words are cheap, but I love you, Gwen. You have added so much to my miserable life. And maybe I didn’t tell you enough, maybe I never said it at all, but I have always felt so lucky to have you as a friend. To have you as an ally. And I would be willing to do whatever I had to do to make it up for you.

Please, please, tell me that you are willing to let me try.

Please.

I hope you’re rotten hell, both of you.

Alex, when I learned that you were Victor’s son, as upsetting as it was to you and Justin, it honestly did warm my heart. Because I thought, now that Victor is gone, I can be there for you. Because I, I know that’s what he, he would want.

Is there a point to this or the point? The point is, you’re important to me, Alex. You always have been, but now seeing my husband and you, it makes me feel even closer to you. But I also feel, uh, I believe that if he would have wanted you to be CEO, he would have made you CEO. Maybe he wants the two of us to work together.

Maybe he wanted us to, to be co CEOs. Yeah, I, I just don’t, I don’t see that working out very well, to be honest with you, Maggie. I mean, we don’t see eye to eye on the way we should run this business. So, you’d rather simply take my job? No, no, and that’s… I heard… Like I said, I don’t see it that way, but obviously you do, so I’m telling you right now, if you’re not willing to just give up, willingly, I have no other choice but to just bring it in front of the board, because with controlling interests, all I have to do to get them to remove you Jada

was accusing you! I told you, it’s either her or you! You. Oh, so now she gets charged with attempted murder. You hurt Jada? That’s off the table! Oh ho ho ho! So now it’s only that I was lying to the police and violating my parole. Lucky me! Well, you brought it on yourself, lady! Are you just gonna stand there and let this wife of yours throw your mother under the bus?

Hey, Mother, I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do about it now. Jada knows you violated your parole, and if she acts on what she found out here today, the U. S. Marshals are gonna be knocking down that door any second. Well, I don’t suppose there’s anything I can do other than leave town. Hallelujah!

Gwen, I got your message. Now, I know I gave you every reason to believe it was me, but I promise you I did not shoot Dimitri. Then who the hell did? Vivian Allemane. What? Why would Vivian shoot Dimitri? Apparently she walked in just as Dimitri was about to kill Stephan and Gabby. I’m here to arrest your husband.

Well, that’s the best news I’ve heard all day.

Calling a board meeting won’t be necessary. I’ll go. But I must say, I’m very disappointed. That I didn’t get through to you at all. I knew you were a womanizer. And that you tended to be grandiose. And somewhat full of yourself. But I didn’t think that you were so callous that you wouldn’t respond to what I said, which came from my heart about seeing Victor and you, how it moved me.

Look, Maggie, I’m not telling you that there’s no role for you at Titan. I’m going to need capable people. Yes, you will. But you’re right. Something tells me that you and I teaming up would work out about as well as it did the last time.

If you’ll excuse me, I need to read your husband his rights. Huh. Well, Dimitri’s

finally getting what’s coming to him. Yeah, well, he’s not the only one. Don’t you see what this means? We are going to get what’s coming to us, too. What are you talking about? Oh please, do I really need to spell it out to you? Apparently. Okay, okay, so listen. Dimitri is going off to Statesville. And someone is going to get the Von Leuschner fortune.

Wait. Gwen didn’t hurt you, did she? She came a little close for comfort. But, um, She didn’t draw any blood. How did this happen? Well, I had my gun trained on Gabby and Stephan. Then I heard a shot and felt a searing pain in my back. Wait a minute. Hm? You had a gun on Gabby and Stephan? You promised me you weren’t gonna do that.

I know, I know, and I meant it. After you left the mansion, I was ready to hand over the DiMera shares, but just before I was about to do it, Kristen walked in and pulled a gun on me. Kristen did this? No, no, no, she didn’t do this. Then who was it? Stefan’s mother. Vivian? I managed to get the gun away from Kristen.

I had it in my hand. Then Gabby and Stefan walked in acting all cocky. So you aimed the gun at them? It was an impulse move. And then Vivian walked in and shot me. Wait, if she shot you in the back, how did you know it was her? I guess I came to for a little while after that. Can you please focus on the fact that I nearly just…

I’m trying not to focus on that part.

But the important thing is that you are alive and now that the truth is out. We have nothing to worry about. Ahem.

I think it’s time the new Mrs. von Leuschner needs to pay her in laws a visit. Explain how poor, deranged Dimitri is going off to prison. Therefore, his new wife is entitled to his fortune.

You really think that would work? Well, why not? You’re still married to him, aren’t you? And you and Dimitri, you’ve fulfilled the conditions of the carter cell. Why shouldn’t they pay you? I’m not sure the von Leuschens would see it that way. Well then, you’ll have to persuade them. May take a little time.

And, uh, maybe a little fancy footwork. True, and I have always been good at thinking on my feet.

Yeah, I mean, honestly, there’s not really anything left keeping me here in Salem. I have the Spectator, of course, but that’s all tangled up with Xander, and honestly, that’s not a road that I want to go down again.

The only friend that I had was Leo, and, well, you

know how that turned out. Yeah, well, you always got me. Thanks, I think.

I don’t know, ever since I arrived here in Salem, it’s just been one bloody debacle after the other.

Maybe it’s time that I see what else is out there for me.

Perhaps a sizable inheritance.

Stefan, my dear boy, I would never leave you, but I have no choice. There you go. I think I’ll go back to Amania. It’s our home. It don’t worry about me. Whatever life throws in Vivian Al Lane’s way,

I will always rise like a phoenix. From the ashes.

So. Chloe and Philip are back together. No, I mean, I hope not. I mean Marlena, he got the help that he needed. He really did and he was doing so well, but it’s his obsession with Chloe that made him lose his mind in the first place. So. I mean, what if that happens again?

Philip is a grown man. And, and, Chloe must have believed that he’s changed or she never would have agreed to go to New York with him.

I suppose so. Okay, putting all of that aside. Honestly, I was really hoping that Philip was going to stay in Salem. Especially now, you know, and I suppose that was really, really silly of me to think that you know that he would want to be closer with me now because of losing his father.

Oh,

uncle Vic, I,

dad,

I really hope you’re not mad about Maggie.

But I don’t think you would have dangled this opportunity in front of me if you didn’t want me to grab the brass ring.

Detective Hunter, what can we do for you? Well, Mr. Stark, for once, this doesn’t concern you. Dimitri von Leuschner, you are under arrest for attempted murder.

Vivian’s gone. Thought she’d be saying goodbye to you for at least another hour. Honey, you’re really sad to see her go. You can’t tell me you were happy living with her in this house. It wouldn’t have been forever.

I’m pleased that was with the, the law on her tail. Look, I know she’s impossible. She’s my mother, and I feel bad for her. Yeah, that’s because you have a good heart. But that woman… Your mother? Misery follows her wherever she goes. Right. You may not see it right now, but trust me, I did you a huge favor.

Welcome to Global Airlines. You only travel in style. Better be careful. One never knows who one’s going to run into.

There’s my flight, it’s already boarding. Flight SK84 from Los Angeles has arrived at gate A57. Well, Salem.

Hasn’t always been fun, has it? Certainly been interesting.

There are things about you that I have loved. There’s also a lot of things I’ve hated.

I suppose you could say the same thing about me, though.

I promise you, it might be goodbye for now. You haven’t seen the last of this 16 from Geneva landed at number 8. Teresa! Teresa, would you hurry up already, please? Please proceed to baggage claims belt 2. Oh

you jets, I’m coming.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Ava, what the hell are you doing here? I thought you were on the run. Well, now I’m back. And I brought you a little surprise. Not that you deserve it after trying to kill me. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Save me the phony denials, CJ. I know you sent that woman to Bayview to murder me. And that’s why I’m here.

To end this. Now. End it how? See for yourself.

Mother! It’s you, it’s me! Mother? Oh,

that’s baby! So it’s my

You’re leaving Salem. Do you mean with Xander? Aren’t you getting married after all? No, um, now that Xander knows that he’s the father of Sarah’s baby, what he and I had, um, is over. I’m sorry. Yeah, me too. We obviously can’t live together anymore, and there’s no way I can stay at the Spectator, so without a job and no relationship, there’s nothing really keeping me here.

Come on, Victoria. Please just nap a little bit so that mommy can rest too. Ugh.

Sarah? Kate! What’s wrong? What’s wrong is that you have dragged my son into this psycho drama with Xander Cook and now you’ve put a target directly on Rex’s back.

What the hell do you want?

You mean, what am I doing here? You texted me to come over. What? Talk about Sarah’s baby. No, I didn’t. But, Sarah, I don’t have time for your games and your crap. Just stop lying. I’m not lying. I sent you a text. Then who did?

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

What’s that? It’s a text you sent me. That’s not my number. I didn’t send that. If you didn’t send this, who did? I don’t have a bloody clue, but since you’re here, Rex, look, we should talk about the baby. My baby. The one whose father you’re pretending to be. There’s no pretend here. I am legally Victoria’s father.

My name is on her birth certificate. You think a line on a piece of paper is going to keep me from my daughter? No, but a judge will. Then I’ll show the judge a DNA test that shows clearly that I’m Victoria’s biological father and you’re just some pathetic loser that Sarah roped into perpetuating a fraud.

We have been over this. You can fight it all you want but there’s not a court on the planet that is going to award you custody. So get over it. It’s over. Move on. Never. So, what’s the plan, Anzander, hmm? Well, for starters, you’re gonna give up any claim that you have to Victoria, and then you’re gonna divorce Sarah.

Oh, I’m so sorry, Kate. I’m, I’m quite sleep deprived at the moment. What, what are, what are you talking about? Okay, don’t try to play on my sympathies as a mother, because you have put my child directly in the line of fire. The line of fire? Okay. You know, maybe you want to have a romantic relationship with Xander Cook.

That is your decision. But you have been finally woken to the fact that he’s a homicidal maniac. So I do not appreciate you using my son as your human shield. I mean, what do you want, Sarah? Do you want to see Rex dead? Is that it?

Nigel, you were alive, but I didn’t think it was possible. I, I, I have so many questions, I don’t know where to begin.

What, just, you know what, start at the very beginning, like I always say, sweetheart. You, you, you look good, you sound good, are you, are you alright? Are you okay? Are you okay now? Well, especially now love you. Mother, I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you so much. PJ’s car’s down. It’s time to make the move. We have to get that confession.

We promised rape bombs. Don’t worry about it. Hey, Susan. Susan, I’m really glad that I was able to get you reunited with your son back home, but, um… You think you could help me out? Oh! You want me to help you out? Okay, you know what? I could do a reading for you, and, you know, a poem writing, or an oral reading.

No, no, no, not that kind of help, Susan. Just… Maybe you could ask your son to apologize for sending that woman to Bayview to murder me. Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. You know what, son? You’re going to listen to your mama right now. Now you are going to confess your sins.

Right this moment. And you’re going to beg Ava for her forgiveness. Hmm?

Where will you go? Well, um, my parents and Parker are in New York, so it makes sense for me to go there. You know, I just need a little bit of… Time to process all of this and figure out what’s next. Alright. Well, thanks for telling me, Chloe. You didn’t have to. I wanted to. What, you thought I’d just take off without saying anything?

Um, well, in the past you might have. I wouldn’t have blamed you. Yeah, you’re right, but in the past I would have worried that this kind of news was going to send you into some obsessive tailspin. But, like I told you last night, Philip, I know that you have changed and I’m not worried about you anymore. I’m glad.

I’m glad, too. I’m so glad that you’re alive, and I’m so proud of you for doing all that work to get better. And reconnecting with you has been…

It has been pretty great.

New York’s beautiful this time of year. Yeah, I know. And a change of scenery will be good for me, but I will miss you.

Miss you too.

Of course I don’t want Rex dead. What kind of a question is that? The whole reason that you didn’t want Xander near your baby is because you were terrified of him, right? You knew he was a dangerous man. You knew that if he was in Victoria’s life that she would never be safe, right? That’s, that’s right.

Okay. So, it was alright if my son isn’t safe, though? I mean, I, I don’t get that. I, I, it, this plan of yours for him to pretend to be the father of your baby, did you really think that you could pull that off? My, yeah, my hope was that it would, the truth would never come out. Okay, but you knew that it would.

And when it did, Xander would be out for blood, right? I mean, the thing is, I understand you wanting to protect an innocent child, but why would you do that and risk my son’s life? I mean, is that okay? You’d have to ask your son. What the hell does that mean? What it means, Kate, is I didn’t come up with the idea to lie about Victoria’s paternity.

Rex did.

We just got married, you idiot. Your marriage is a joke. She only did it to stick it to me. She did it because she thinks you’re a threat to her daughter, which you are. You guys are both insane. If you think I’ll ever do anything to hurt Victoria, you, on the other hand, I’d have no problem causing you a great deal of pain.

You need to get out of my face and stay out of Sarah’s life and her baby’s. And if I don’t? What are you gonna do, Rex? Are you gonna kill me? Of course you aren’t.

He’s not gonna kill you. That’s my job.

I’ve showed her confessions are good for the show. Now I want you to admit to Ava what you did. And I want you to call off the assassin, hmm? Now I’m alive, sweetheart. There’s no need for vengeance now. There is another

sitting duck waiting for you. Right here in Salem, in fact. Another tag at home. It was accomplice, Xander Cook.

Oh my God. What is it? That’s good. Good. Do you know what to I, I, I have to go. I, I, I just remembered I have a critical business engagement. Well, wait a matter of, it’s a matter of life and death. I’ll be back soon. I love you so much, brother. I’ll be back. I promise. Oh, I forgot about me getting into that boy’s bonnet to make him run out of here so fast.

What the hell are you doing? I’m gonna shoot you, then I’m gonna put the gun in his hand. You know Rex? I know he’s going down for murder. Whose murder? Yours. I’m sure somebody heard you guys arguing. Once they hear this gunshot, they’ll call the cops. By the time they get here, I’ll be long gone. You’ll be dead.

And this poor sucker will take the rap for it.

So, what are your plans? Uh, actually I don’t have any. Just taking it one day at a time. Though I’m sure my mother has my entire life all mapped out for me. I’m sure she does. Truth is, she can plan all she wants. Us karaoke says we don’t stick to the script. Like to keep things interesting. Oh yeah? Like what’s going on with my family right now.

It’s like that show, the one with Cassandra and Rhett. Body and soul? You watch that. I’ve had a lot of time on my hands. Anyway, it’s been wild. First, Vivian shows up out of nowhere. Announces she’s entitled to my father’s entire fortune. Then they find his revised will. Thank God. So she gets nothing. Maggie gets half.

The other half goes to my brother Alex. Oh, yeah, I heard about that. Alex’s victor’s son. Your brother? That must be strange for you. Well, he was always family. Now he’s closer family. Me, Bo, and Alex. Victor’s three sons. Though I’m not sure where I belong in the new configuration, but I’ll figure it out. I’m sure Victor loved you all equally.

Yeah, I think he did. And although my dad and I didn’t have the smoothest relationship of all time, I loved him too. Very much. I just wish I had a chance to say goodbye.

But, luckily… No! That’s not the right word. Uh, it should be… Thankfully. I get to say goodbye to you.

Don’t be a stranger, okay? I won’t.

Bye.

Don’t leave me. Do you think that maybe you would… Want to try to figure things out in New York?

What the EJ is onto us? I don’t know. Well, I know we just missed our one chance to get him on tape admitting what he did to me. I mean, we could, we could wait and try again. No. No, no, no. When EJ saw his mother, that was the time. We’re not gonna get another chance. Look, I guess it’s time. I guess we go back down to the station and tell Rafe the bad news,

huh? You know, to come back, and I’m gonna get Harold to make us some fried bologna and manny sandwiches. Oh, Susan, I don’t really have much of an appetite. Oh, no, no, no. You gotta try one. Oh, they’re so delicious. You think, you know, Harold, he makes that lunch meat so crispy just the way I like it. Yeah, Susan, I think that Harris and I, we’re just gonna head out.

Oh. But um, before, before we do go, I want to say one thing to you.

When I had you in that car, I was in a very, very dark place. And um, I was hurt, and I was angry, and I wasn’t thinking straight. And the issues that I had, they were with EJ, they were not with you. And I never should have dragged you into it. And for that, I was wrong. And I am truly sorry. Live and

you shall be forgiven. That’s what the Bible says and that’s what I believe. Thank you, Susan. Thank you, I really am grateful for that. And I am so glad that you are okay. Okay. Oh, hold on, hold on! Wait, wait, wait! What’s, what’s uh, next for Miss Ava Vitae? I

don’t know, I um, I guess they’re gonna send me back to Bayview. Oh, you

know, given what happened to me and, and Big Crumb?

I don’t have to do this. I’d do it if I’m gonna get paid. I’ll pay you. I’ve got tons of cash in the other room. I’ll just run and get it. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. I don’t think so. Listen, I know what you’re going through. I’ve been in your situation more times than I care to care. Not holding a gun on someone because I needed money.

I don’t need the money. I do this because I want to. I’m one of those lucky guys, I love my job. So someone hired you. Not back and guessing exactly who did that. Oh, and here he is. Hi, EJ. Come to make sure the job’s done right.

So, pretending to be the father of your baby, that was Rex’s idea? Bonnie Lockhart showed up unexpectedly to Rex’s place in Chicago and saw that I was pregnant and Rex jumped in and said the baby was his. So why didn’t you just tell her or anyone else that Rex was lying? You’re right. Yes, I could have. I could have.

You could have, but instead you decided to take advantage of his feelings for you. Well, hang on. I have always been completely honest about my feelings for Rex from the beginning. He knows that our relationship is purely platonic. Yeah, but you knew that he wanted a lot more, didn’t you? I mean, Roman and I just had breakfast with him this morning and, uh, well, he kind of laid out the, the whole plan, you know.

Even though the truth of Victoria is out, you’re going to stay married. He called me after he told you. He said that Roman was very understanding and that you were less so. Yeah, you’re right about that. Because even though Rex knows this relationship isn’t real, he’s going to do everything he can to win you back.

And you have him believing that the longer you play house together, the better the chances are that you’ll fall back in love with him. But we both know you won’t. I, I can’t predict the future, Kate. Can you? Yeah, in this case I can. Because you strung him along all the way up to the altar. You’re still feeding him false hope.

I knew there was something wrong with you and Rex right from the beginning because he was so secretive and he was so evasive about you. Two days in, before we find out about the birth of our grandchild that turns out not really to be our grandchild. But then again, all of it makes sense now, doesn’t it?

I’m sorry, Kate. I had to put my daughter first. Well, I’m not sorry. I need to put my son first. So you are greatly mistaken if you think I am going to stand by and let him take a bullet for you.

We have a deal, and I will honor my part by releasing you from your obligation to honor yours. Once I start a job, I need to finish it. Besides, this guy’s seen my face, and I don’t like to leave witnesses. Oh, there’s no problem there. I have a terrible memory for faces. I’m sure I’ll forget yours the moment you walk out that door.

You work for me. When I say the job is done, it’s done.

Fine. As long as I still get paid. You will.

I assume that you sent him here because of what I did to Susan. Why’d you call him off? Circumstances have changed. Oh, so?

Turns out my mother is still alive. Uh,

uh, come in, come in. Just, uh, take a seat, just give me a second, I want to finish this.

Okay, now what?

Susan? Yes! Susan

Delilah Banks! No, wait a minute, hold it, should it be me, or… Okay, I can just do confused, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. You’re alive. Oh my gosh. I’m not dreaming now, right? No, no, no. You’re not. You’re not dreaming. I’m real. I’m real. And if you don’t believe me, why don’t you come over here and give your good friend a great big hug.

So, Susan somehow managed to get out of the car before it blew up and, what, she’s been living it up across the pond? I wouldn’t say she’s been living it up, but yes, she survived the crash and has been in London this whole time. Oh my god, this is a miracle! Thank you, EJ! Well, thank you for coming here and telling me that.

I… And, thank you for stopping your goon from doing me in. Who are you calling? Who else? The cops. Why? Why do you think? I didn’t tell Ray Fernandes that you just hired somebody to put a bullet in

me. Sir Gray’s on a call. He should be back soon, I hope. He’s not.

Um, can you help me with this on, on my back? Yeah. Yeah? Mm hmm. Okay. Yeah, just go ahead and rip, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, just rip it off. Go ahead. Ooh. Okay. Um.

Thank you.

Like, I’m sorry we couldn’t get EJ to admit that he ordered that hit. Yeah. Me too. I was hoping it would help my case. And maybe even get the Salem PD and Rafe off my back. Maybe into my corner. Well, we may not have gotten the confession from EJ, but I mean, Susan being alive It’s gotta help.

Wait, wait. You were in London all this time? Yes, yes, I was, I was chained up in my ex hubby’s, that bedroom. I, I, I, until Ava Vitale and, and Harrish Michael showed up. Well, you must have done a wonderful job of helping them find you. Oh, yeah, I, well, but when they showed up to Edmund’s place, he took them prisoner, too.

But you know what? Thanks to Lord, we are all safe now. Yes, that’s all that matters. And… It’s a miracle, Dr. Marlena Evans?

Is being here and standing right with you right now. You so dang much. I’ve missed you too, Susan. Look, there’s something I just don’t understand. Uh, uh, so you, you crawled away from the car before it exploded. And, who found you and, and took you to Edmond? You know, much to my frustration and vexation, Uh, I still haven’t solved that one yet.

Doesn’t matter. You’re here now. With all the people that love you most in

the world. I like to say it. On hold. Are you sure you want to do this? Oh, I’m sure. And I’m sure Rafe would leave any excuse to lock you up. That is true. But I’m quite certain the Commissioner would relish the opportunity to put you behind bars as well. And what possible reason could he have to do that?

Well, the only reason you’re not in prison for kidnapping is that Rafe couldn’t find a witness to implicate you. Bonnie Kiriakis never saw your face, but my mother did. You have a point. Given the sheer hell you put Susan through, I have no doubt she’ll want to press charges against you. Unless… Unless what?

I could talk to her. Convince her to let it all go. As her one and only son, she’ll listen to me. But if I’m incarcerated, as you ratted me out to the cops… Forget it. She’ll get on the stand, tell a jury in extraordinary detail what you did to her, and then you’ll end up in a jail cell right next to me.

Despite Rex’s attempts at concealing the truth, you now know

that you’re a father. Do you really want to get to know your daughter in the visiting That is, if Sarah and her new husband would even allow it. But do you want to be free so you could fight for your daughter? So you can claim that little girl as your own. Well done, Counselor. You win. I do. Now, before I leave, let’s relieve, shall we?

Other guy was sent by the gas company to fix a leak. And I’ll talk to my mother, who will find it in her generous heart to forgive and forget. Alright, jackass. Wake up, nap time’s over. This may be hard

to hear, Kate, but… Rex is a grown man, and you need to let him make his own choices. Mm mm. No, it’s not about Rex making his own choices. It’s about me protecting him from a calculating predatory woman, and I’m never going to stop doing that. You’re using Rex. You’re using Rex to keep your ex husband away.

Look, I know that you’re worried about Xander hurting him. No, no, no, no. I’m also worried about you hurting him. And if you do, you’ll answer to me.

Get off me! Just put your right back down on the floor if you like. Dude, you did this? You used the baby to get me over here? Only to have some thug knock me out? I have no idea what you’re talking about. You hired somebody to knock me out! Don’t be ridiculous. No, no, no. We were talking about the baby. It got a bit heated.

You got very emotional and you fainted. Passed out. Shot. Hit your head on the ground. You’ve been out for half an hour. I know you did this. Because this is what you do. You hurt people. You knock them out. You kidnap them. You kill them. So I’ll tell you what, biology or not, you will never be Victoria’s father.

So do her and yourself a favor and stay the hell away from my family.

Chloe, what are you saying? You want me to move to New York with you? Okay, to be clear, I know that we both acknowledge that we have feelings for each other, but I literally just broke off my engagement and I’m nowhere near ready to jump into anything new, so if you did come, I can’t promise you anything, but I would still be really happy if we took this journey together.

And I think a change would be good for you too.

I totally get it. And look, I know I used to say I’d respect your boundaries and then blow right past them, but… I promise, Chloe, there won’t be any more of that. So, from here on out, nothing happens unless you’re comfortable with it. I know, that’s why I asked you to come. You’d really be okay with me tagging along?

At a respectable distance, with absolutely no pressure or expectations? I would be more than okay.

Then yes, I will accompany you to New York. Okay, great. So, this isn’t goodbye for us. But there are a few people that I need to tell that I’m leaving. Me too. Good luck with that. I’m gonna need it.

Yeah, I’m calling because I have some news. No, it’s not bad news. Nicole. Nicole, listen, I’m fine. I will be fine, uh, but I just don’t want to share it over the phone. So can we meet for lunch somewhere? Okay, great. Anywhere except the pub.

Hey, mom. Hey, sweetheart. I am so happy that I’m finally going to have a little quality time with one of my sons. I know how much you value our time together. So do I. Okay, um, I think I sense something here. I think I sense a butt coming. You know how much you value your time with me, butt? We’re not going to be having quite as much of it as you’d like.

Well, I think the worst they can do is send you back to Bayview. And if you go back, I’m going with you. Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to happen. Oh, it will if Dr. Evans says it should. Remember, I asked to be committed so nobody else could use me for their dirty work. Remember? Yeah, and I’m all for therapy, but I think you are way beyond needing to be locked up.

I’m sure if you asked Marlena, she’d just, she’d let you go. Or maybe I don’t want to ask her. I mean, look, we’ve been through a lot together. Almost killed by a fake nurse. Chained up by some crazy guy in London. There’s a lot of dangerous people in this world. And if you’re in there and I’m out here… Who’s going to wash my back?

It’s a nice back, by the way. Hey. I’m crazy. I’m not blind.

Mother! Mother, where are you?

Mother! Oh. Mother, I know you were here. There’s a bouquet of fried bologna mayonnaise in the air.

Where have you been? I just went to see my BFF M. E. M. D. Sorry?

My best friend forever, Marlena hmm?

I told you I had some business to take care of. Oh, more important than being with your mama who you thought you had lushed forever? There’s nothing more important than you, Mother. You know that. But now that all my business is taken care of, you have my undivided attention. Hmm,

this is what I’m going to find out from you, little shunny. When I was gone, did you behave yourself? Were you a good boy? Uh, I would love to say that I was, but where’s the fun in that? Oh,

have to your mom, don’t you?

Oh, I love you too, mama.

Stay away my arse.

Yes, sir, Xander Cook. There’s been a development in my case. Yeah, I just found out that Susan Banks is in fact alive and well. Well that does change things, doesn’t it? Changes everything. All of a sudden I’m a much more suitable parent. So, I want to sue for full custody of my daughter.

Oh, you will not believe what just happened to me. And I want to hear it, I do, but, um… There’s something I need to tell you first. What, what is it?

Sarah. It’s me, you can, you can tell me anything. Really, whatever it is, just, just, just say it.

I want a divorce.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What a relief they found my dad’s will, huh? So Maggie can move back in, kick Vivian to the curb. Better be careful if she hears you say that. She’s gonna remind you once again that she carried you in her womb. As if that means a damn thing. All it does is embarrass me, actually. Since she’s obviously a very bad person, and we are very lucky to be rid of.

Oh God, I wish I could say the same about the very bad person that continues to darken my doorstep. And especially Sarah’s. Xander? Yeah. He’s made it very clear that he has no intention whatsoever of staying away from Sarah. Or the baby.

What’s new with me, Mom? You mean besides everything? No, I haven’t had a chance to talk to Xander about any of it, cause… I, I haven’t even seen him. He didn’t come home last night. Wait, Mom, I gotta go, okay? Are, are you okay? Where were you? I’m so sorry. I, I didn’t mean to worry you. I slept the night in my office.

Yesterday was just such a crazy day, obviously. I, I needed time to process it. But I should have, I should have called you. It, I understand. I just, I didn’t know what to say. No, it’s fine. When you were gone, I did some thinking too. About what? About me moving out. I’m

surprised you took me out for detail. Yes, well, I appreciate you keeping an eye on the patient Ava Vitale shot, but I can take it from here. She’s my client now. Oh, I, I thought you were her client. Yes, well, certain circumstances dictated that the roles be reversed. I’m now representing her, and have advised her to exercise her right to remain silent.

Well, I’m sure she’s going to take your advice, Mr. DiMera. You mentioned there was another job you needed me for? I do. I was hoping that you could succeed where the aforementioned patient failed. I want you to find and to

get us out of here, Susan. Me? Yes, you. You’re the one who lured me and Harris to the big smoke with one of your, your little mental telegrams, right? So, so why don’t you try sending one of those psychic signals to somebody who can get us out? Yeah, can you, can you do that, Susan? I don’t know. Okay, well, you know, you need to figure that out real soon.

Because if you don’t, I’m pretty sure your ex husband, the crazy one, Edmund, he’s gonna end up shooting someone today.

Actually, the people that we’re looking for are under the impression that Susan Banks is still alive. But that’s impossible. I was told she was blown to bits in a car crash. Yeah, well, be that as it may, uh, we understand that they came here. What, to London? No, here to your apartment. I certainly haven’t seen them.

Well, they looked up your address just before they went missing. Well, that’s odd, isn’t it? Well, um, I will let you know if they show up. Alright, uh, do you mind if I have a look around? Well, actually, I do.

Edmund. What’s going on? What’s the problem here? The problem is, if I allow you to look around my flat, then you most certainly will find my guests. And I just can’t have that.

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

Is Ineva Vitale missing? She is. After shooting my client in cold blood, she and another patient escaped bathing into parts unknown. Hm. See? Not that you asked my opinion, but… I mean… Commissioner Hernandez, he’s headed out for years for you to get locked up. Why give him an excuse now to turn up the heat?

Oh, I’m not worried about Hernandez. And I’ve waited far too long to get vengeance from my mother, whom Ava Vitale has had people try and convince me is still alive. What? How could that be? It couldn’t be. So either Ava’s delusional, she’s trying her best to trick me into backing off. Either way… I want her dead.

You know,

I am afraid that my gifts do not work like that, Missy Moo. You know what? You want me to just broadcast the signal out into the neighborhood? You’ll never know until you try. There’s gotta be somebody you can reach. Okay, fine. Alright. Fine, fine, fine. So who do you want me to call? I don’t know. Scott Lanyard.

007 Paddington Bear. Oh, I do love that little bear with his little yellow hat and his blue coat. Okay, Susan, Susan, focus! Okay, just please reach out to somebody who can come here and save us. Okey dokey, Schmokey. But you know what helps? When you’re not yelling at me! Fine. I will be quiet. Oh, you know what?

And I’d also appreciate it if you don’t give me those dirty looks. And that goes for you too, Mr. Handsome Hair Shortcut. Okay. Ready or not, here I go.

You don’t think this is gonna work.

Did you see something? Susan. Susan, answer me. I, I, I, I, I, I, I didn’t, I didn’t get to see the message, I just, I saw this, this image, it hit me. What? An image? An image of what? It wasn’t, it wasn’t a what, it was a phone. It was um, oh boy, I saw Edmund, I saw him, it was vivid, vivid as days long. And, uh, he was, um, he was pointing a gun.

He was pointing a gun at your, your baby boy.

And who are these guests of yours? Well, quite coincidentally, they’re the two people that you came looking for. My mom is here. What did you do with her? Your mother? You’re Ava Vitale’s son? Yeah, I am. Then I’m sure you’re aware of what your mother did to my Susan. Kidnapped her and drove her off the side of a cliff.

Yeah. Yeah, I know what happened. Ava did her best to put out Susan’s light. And it’s a beautiful life that this world so desperately needs. It shattered my heart. Well, I’m sorry to hear that, Mr. Crumb. Well, I hope you don’t take this personally. But your mother hurt me deeply. And now, I’m gonna hurt her deeply by killing her son.

Well, hang on, Mr. Crumb. Okay? No one needs to get hurt here. Oh, I beg to differ. We can all see that you’re suffering. Oh, you can, can you? You have no idea what suffering is. Susan was my one true love. From the moment I first saw her, I knew I was gonna spend my life protecting her. Keeping her safe from this cruel world.

Yeah. Her loss was a terrible tragedy. Her death haunted me. Cast a pall over my every waking moment. Whenever I closed my eyes, all I could see was her face and her hair and that… perfect smile. The smile? Yeah, that’s what I love most about her. I mean, we were apart for years, but I always held up hope that we’d be reunited.

That despite our miscommunications…

It should take me back. I can’t imagine why she would have left you. Although she, this took my deep love and devotion for obsession. Because I said I’d do anything to take care of her. Even kill. I see. Oh. But she’s gone now. See, you don’t have to do that, Edmund. Okay, you don’t. Your life has value. It does, O’Shea.

Please, please just give me the gun, Edmund. Commissioned. I assure you, I have more than one bullet in this gun, and if you do not stand aside, sir, I have no issue shooting you first. And Ava Vitale’s impertinent son second.

My baby boy, Tripp. Is Tripp here? What? Um, it seems like, like he’s right out there in the living room. Oh dear God. And Krum hasn’t gone out? But yeah, old Krum is now and he’s not one to roll up the red carpet for uninvited guests. No. No. Tripp! Tripp! We’re back here! Tripp! Not gonna work, he can’t here you.

No, no no no. See, Edmund, he sound proofed this whole place before, uh, he locked me up in here. Yeah, of course he did. Yeah, and I just wish he me that because I screamed just like you, I screamed with myself, my, my voice got really hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse you know, and it, I sounded like I was, I was uh, Elvis on his 3rd encore on the, you know, Aloha from Hawaii via satellite.

Just stop! Stop talking!

Harris, we have to get Tripp. Please. Please, we have to get out there. We have to save him.

Well, Bronson, do you want the assignment or not? Look, you want the Vitali woman dead, I’ll make her dead. I just need to know where she is. She was a sitting duck in Bayview. Now, I don’t know where she could be. I’m working on locating her. But until that happens, there is another sitting duck waiting for you.

Right here in Salem, in fact. Another tiger? Who? Ava’s accomplice. Xander Cook.

Believe me, I totally get why Sarah’s doing this. I mean, anything to keep Xander away from her innocent child. I just, I can’t believe after what Xander did to E. J. DiMera’s mother. I mean, why is he not in prison? Or dead? Sarah doesn’t still have feelings for him, does she? You mean besides disgust? I’m just asking No, no, Phillip.

He lied to her over and over again. Even used her as cover while he kidnapped and terrorized Susan. I know all that. I also know you and Sarah have had your issues. Yeah, I still have a lot of work to do to regain Sarah’s trust. But Xander, unless he’s found out a way to resurrect Susan Banks from the dead, there’s no way in hell that Sarah’s gonna let him back into her life.

Or her daughter’s.

Hey, I, I know a lot has changed. I mean, I just found out that I’m her father to that little girl, but… Which makes me assume that… You want to try to work things out with her mother? I know that you loved Sarah for a long time and maybe you never stopped. I don’t love her anymore. She, she tried to keep me from my own child.

She put another man’s name on my daughter’s birth certificate. And I’m not saying that any of that is okay and you have every right to feel hurt and betrayed. That’s how I knew I had to tell you the truth about what I overheard. From Max and Phillip. Right. And in that moment, you proved that I can trust you, Chloe.

I know that our relationship is strong and

honest. I’m gonna fight, Sarah, for this baby. And, darlin I need you by my side when I do that.

Xander Cook kidnapped and terrorized my mother. Here’s the reason why she ended up in that car with Eva Vitale. Well, that sounds like he deserves what’s coming to him. But I gotta ask, is it safe? I mean, like, like I said before, you’re already under suspicion for what happened over at Bayview. This guy, Cook, takes a bullet.

It means there’s gonna be a lot of blowback coming your way. I’m prepared for it. That’s why you’re going to frame someone else. That makes sense. So who’s our fall guy? Someone who hates Xander Cook just as much as I do. Rex Brady.

You know, I have to admit, Chloe overhearing us talking about Sarah and… It’s really complicated things. I hope you don’t blame her for telling Xander what she heard. No, no, no, no. She just did what she thought was right. And, look, we both know secrets like that that have a way of coming out. So maybe it’s better we deal with it.

I hope so. Doesn’t make it any easier. No. Hey, Chloe didn’t just overhear us talking about Xander being Victoria’s father. Chloe also heard you say that you’re still in love with her. She did it. And how’d she take that? Better than I could have imagined. Really?

After everything I did to Brady, I never thought she could forgive me. Let alone consider being in a relationship with me again. But? But, Chloe admitted, when I came back to Salem, Her feelings for me came back too.

Uh, you want to win custody of the baby? Oh, no, no, it’s a long shot. I have a spotted history to say the least, but I’m a father, Chloe. I deserve to be a part of her life. So you hired an attorney? I had a preliminary discussion with the custody lawyer. She She said it’s probably a bad idea if I leave Salem right now.

I’m sorry, I know we are gonna go to New York and, and get married.

I do still want to marry you, Chloe. I don’t want to be with Sarah. Especially after what she did. I love you. I want to be with you.

I’m sorry, Xander. I don’t think I feel the same way anymore.

I don’t want to be with you.

I need to get to church. I’m not going to let that guy hurt your son. You’re going to be able to break that chain. Uh, maybe I can help? If Harris can’t do it, how are you going to help? Well, I’m just going to pray to God for strength. Prayer. Praying, praying, praying. That is your answer. Prayer is always answered.

So come, and we are going to pray to the Lord to loosen the weakest link. I’ll take all the help I can get. Alright, well you just work your end of it, Mr. Harrison. I’ll work mine. Okay.

Self destruct! Move,

Rafe. No! Touchdown! Both of us are being shot! Boy, it makes sense, Commissioner. Besides, this isn’t your fight. But you, Tripp. Is it? I’ll ask you to save a place for your mother in hell. And I give you my assurance, you won’t have to wait long.

Paris! Oh my god. What is going on up there? What if he doesn’t make it to him in time? Okay, hold on, hold on, Honey,

I mean, look the good Lord, he helped break the chains! Didn’t he? And, and now we have to pray that he’s gonna help Mr. Harris stop, Edmond, from pulling that.

You all right? Yeah. Gun was pointed at the ground when he pulled the trigger. Thank God. No, this is not right. Do yourself a favor. Sit there and don’t move. Mind if I hold the gun? Yeah. Where’s my mom? She’s fine. Follow me. Paris? Rafe. You don’t have to worry. We’re done running. Alright. Scotland Yard

will be joining us. In the meantime, consider yourself under arrest. I

don’t hear him anything. There was only one gunshot, and then… Harris, what happened? What was the worst trip? Oh my god. Oh my god, thank god.

Susan, you’re, you’re alive! Oh my goodness, it’s so good to see you, Dr. Joe Johnson! I guess you were right, huh? Yeah, I guess so. Why don’t I get you two unchained? Oh, yes, I’d like that very, very much, Mr. Michaels. Thank you. Um, you want to thank me, you can tell your son EJ to leave Ava alone. Okay. Um, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I can, I can do that.

Don’t you worry about Mr. Michaels. My Elvis, he’s such a good boy, and he’s gonna listen to his mama. Yeah, I hope you’re right about

that. Rex Brady has been presenting himself as the father of Sarah Horton’s newborn child. But it’s come to light that Xander Cook is her true baby daddy. Sounds like that could cause some serious bad blood between the two men. I’m assuming you don’t like this Rex guy either. I have no feelings about him at all.

But like you said, we need a fall guy. So Dr. Rex is going to have to be… collateral damage.

You and Chloe. I know it hasn’t always been smooth sailing for you two. To put it mildly. But… I have always believed that you two belong together. I won’t argue with you about that. But, I lost my way last time around with her. Obviously. My obsession took over and I did some terrible things. I wasn’t well and I hurt a lot of people.

Chloe included. I never want to be that guy again. Happy to hear that. Really? So what does this mean for you and Chloe? It means I’m sitting back and letting things happen the way they’re supposed to. Chloe knows how I feel. Now it’s up to her to decide who she wants to be with. Sounds like a good plan.

Because, you know, it’s crazy. Which part? That the women we love… can either choose to be with us, or that thug Xander. I have to say, I like our chances.

When I, when I didn’t come home last night, did you think I was, did you think I was with Sarah? Or that I’d just give up on everything that you and I have? I don’t blame you if you had doubts, Chloe. Well that, that certainly didn’t help, but this is not just about me. It’s you and Sarah. What’s it about, then?

Well, when you went to confront her, Philip came over.

And? And he, he said that he still loves me and that he never stopped. Well, that sounds like his problem, not yours. That’s true, but… Honestly, I have unresolved feelings for him. Since when? Since… always, I guess. You know, I thought he was dead, and it, it didn’t matter, and then, when I saw him, I had all these feelings come rushing back.

So, um, does that mean that you want to be with him? No. I, I don’t know. The way things ended with us was really ugly, and I would never want that back, but I Guess what I’m trying to say is that I need some time to figure things out, okay?

I, uh, I understand.

I love you, and I have loved being with you, Xander. Don’t you think that maybe we somehow ended up here because Sarah broke your heart, and I thought I’d never see Philip again, and if I’m, if I’m being honest, I’m not over him. And I think once you stop being so angry, you’ll realize that you’re not over Sarah.

So, what now? I guess spent one last night here, and… My old room. Tomorrow I will pack my things and I’ll go.

My God, it’s you. You really are alive. Yes, praise the Lord! Well, it’s you too, Commissioner. Well, I just can’t believe half the Salem came Ol Mike. Yeah, I just… I can’t believe that he held you captive this whole time. How did you even get here? Crumb said he got a phone call from someone who knew Susan survived the crash.

Yeah, and he said that next thing he knew, some guy showed up with an injured Susan. Who was it, Crumb? I already told them. I have no idea who the man was. Susan, you don’t remember? No, I’m coming to Blake. Blake, yep. Oh, yeah, but you know what? It really does scare the bejesus out of me to think that whoever grabbed me,

is still out there. Hey, boss. Everything set for today? Yeah. Yeah. But the techs are expiring now. Send him over to Cook’s apartment. Where you’ll be waiting? Where I’ll be waiting. Call me when everything’s done.

Mom, you’re not hearing me. I am hearing you. I am hearing you loud and clear. You’re planning on remaining married to a woman who is using you and letting you raise another man’s child. Sarah is not using me. We care about each other. A lot. And I already love her daughter as if she was my own. You know what?

Legally, she is. So my god, if dad can be okay with this, why can’t you? Because unlike you and your father, I am thinking straight. Okay? That little girl was sired by Xander Cook, and there is no way in hell he’s just gonna back off and let you pretend to be the father. I’m not afraid of Xander. Well, you damn well should be.

Hold on.

Speak of the devil. Oh, God. So what does he want to do? Squash you like a bug? He wants to see me. Right now. No. Rex, please don’t do that. Oh, no. I’m going. This is going to be the perfect opportunity to set that bastard straight. Rex, please! Later, Bob! Rex.

Well, I guess this is it. Yeah, um, we’ll figure out another time for me to come get the rest of my stuff. Anytime. You always have a place here.

I, um… I thought that you should have this. What is it? It’s the dartboard. You sure you don’t want to keep it? You went to such trouble hanging that thing up. Yeah, I remember. But if I keep it, you know, whose picture am I going to put on it? There’s so many choices. Sarah, Rex, Philip, mine.

Never give up, Star.

Take care, Xander.

You

too,

Chloe. All is in motion, father. Justice will be meted out to Xander Cook. And as soon as Ava Vital crawls out from whatever rock she’s under, she’s next.

Thank you, Ray, for letting my mom do this her way. Oh, I’m not doing it out of the goodness of my heart. And by all rights, Ava and Michael should be in a jail cell right now, or at least back at Bayview. Yeah. But you know as well as I do that, it was EJ who sent the woman to kill it. Yeah. Which is why I’m gonna do everything in my power to nail his ass.

Hello, Lee Chang. Ava, what the hell are you doing here? I thought you were… on the run. Well, I’m back now. And I brought you a little surprise. Not that you deserve it after trying to kill me. I have no idea who you’re talking about. Oh, EJ, spare me the phony denials. I know you sent that woman to murder me over at Bayview.

That’s why I’m here. I’m gonna end this. Now. End it how? See for yourself.

Hey, I got your text. Uh, yeah, thanks for meeting me. Um, there was something I needed to tell you. What is it? I’m, I’m leaving Salem.

Yes? Hey, sorry to bother you, uh, from the gas company. We got a word that there’s a leak in the building. Might I come in and take a look? Not really a great time, to be honest, mate. It’s a gas leak, sir. These things could be deadly if we don’t address them. How long will it take? Not long, I promise. Thanks.

How much do you want?

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Marlena: You have a moment? We didn’t have time to finish our session.

Talia: There’s not much more to say. I pretty much told you everything.

Marlena: No, I don’t think you did. You didn’t mention that you had slept with my son-in-law.

Talia: I-I-I don’t-I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Marlena: When we agreed to good start therapy, we discussed the fact that you would be open and honest and forthright. So let me ask you again. You sleep with my son-in-law.

Talia: Yes. I did.

Jada: Here are my notes. Send in the report and I’ll drop off the gun with forensics. Wait for Juda.

Shawn: Um, you and I were good, right?

Jada: Just focus on getting your act together and we’ll see what happens.

Shawn: I will. I will. Until then, if this is-this is awkward to ask you, but, um…

Jada: Don’t worry. I’m not going to tell anyone that you slept with my sister.

Belle: You just did.

Rafe: Hey, Jada. Just calling to check in gives you in the middle of something. Anyway, Ava and Michael still haven’t come back to the hotel room. Local cops got a call out for tips. See if they can turn up anything. All right, give me a call and you get a chance. Bye. Freeze!

Tripp: Don’t shoot, don’t shoot.

Rafe: Tripp. What the hell are you doing here?

Tripp: What do you think? Hey, I’m worried about my mom.

Harris: Ava. Hey.

Ava: Hey, God. Are you all right? Yeah, I am.

I think I am. What happened?

Harris: It was Crumb. Poisoned our tea.

Ava: Oh, God, wait. Am I imagining things or did he say that he had Susan locked up in the back bedroom somewhere?

What in the world?

What do you do? You found me.

Oh, what are you doing here? Oh, well, selling me.

I was going to come surprise my husband and take him to lunch, but after what I just heard, I pretty much lost my appetite. Oh, I was just telling my mom that you and I had turned a corner in our marriage and that the worst was behind us. Well, I am so sorry that you found out this way.

No, don’t be, don’t be.

No, I’m glad I found out. Because you were never going to tell me where you. So tell me, am I the last one to know about this that you are cheating on me with Talia Hunter?

How did you find out?

Belle was just here. She’d been worried. Because her husband didn’t come back after attending his grandfather’s funeral. That he said that he had just had too much to drink, and so he had slept in yours and Jada’s room. And then you came in and said that you had had too much to drink. And you slept with a married man. Not too hard to collect those dots.

I’m so sorry.

So am I.

Worried?

You mean that you wanted to tip her off that I was on her trail? She’s my mom, Rafe. Can’t you understand why I want to help her?

Did you know she was staying here all alone?

No. Oh, well, we knew the names on the fake passports on Wendy was able to track her on Harris down. You got the key to the room, Hal? Just told the people at the front desk that I was her son and they gave it to me. Oh, it’s much for security.

Why did you just knock?

Because I didn’t think my mom would be too happy that I followed her here. Rafe, you’re so brave.

Where is she? Damn to find her. Her and Harris, they left their passports here yesterday. They haven’t been back since.

He did. He thought nothing that you guys were here and that maybe that’s my other stand away?

No. I think they weren’t looking for Susan Banks. Hopefully they didn’t get her in any trouble.

I wasn’t hallucinating you our life. Yeah, no thanks to you. Yeah, I know. I know and this is going to sound really lame. But I wasn’t in my right mind when I drove us off that cliff. You’re right. That does sound lame. I am so relieved to see you.

You made it out alive. Oh, shit.

Who are you? And what are you staring at?

Uh, names Harris Michaels. I’m sorry for staring, but the resemblance between you and your brother, it’s uncanny.

Oh, and how do you know Thomas?

You probably don’t want to know.

Okay. Show. You finally got machine nose and yet here we are all of us chained up. Some rescue mission this turned out to be. Hey, Susan, you know, it could be worse. Harris, here’s the next Navy SEAL. Oh, I take you long enough to find me. Susan, why, why did you send me the signals of all people? Well, because everybody else would have thought I was communicating from the great beyond. And why would they rescue you little old me if I was your god?

Actually, make some sense.

And I’m not an adult system. You would be highly motivated for me. Yeah, because you’re not responsible for a man’s murder if I’m not dead, right?

Yeah, and maybe when your son EJ realizes you’re not dead, he’ll call off his hit he has on Ava. His hit?

Yes. Like a hit hit? Yes, like a hit hit. What’s a hit hit?

He sent someone to baby you to murder me. What?

What are you going to do for real? I’m going to sit so touching. Oh, terrific. I mean, I’m going to slap that boy stilly when I see him.

EJ is the least of our worries right now. We need to get out of here. So tell me everything you know about this guy, Chrome. And why he is that?

Well, well, well. Look who’s finally awake. I’m famished, I’m sure. Oh, dear. Not a fan of kidney pie. Not a fan of being poisoned. Well, that shouldn’t be a concern. No, I have you both where I want you.

Okay, so let me get this straight. Your plan to track down my mom and Harris was to just sit and wait in the hotel room until they get back, even though they might be in trouble. I mean, what have EJ has already gotten to them?

Relax, Trip. Okay, I am working with local officials. I’m going to talk about the equivalent of an APB out on them now. Which, by the way, is the only information that I have to go on? Maybe if you’d have been a little more forthcoming.

Are you serious? You’re going to try to make this my fault.

Well, why did I have to trick you into telling me Ava thought that Susan Banks was alive? Did you not realize that that information could have potentially exonerated your mother? If it’s true? Yes. And if it’s true, EJ will probably call off his hit on her.

Yeah, but you don’t care about exonerating or protecting my mom. Okay, you just want to bring her back to Salem and throw the book out.

I want to bring her back to Bayview so she can get the help she needs. Her name is… Well, that’s great. Yeah, thanks. Yeah, just tell me the name again. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah, come on my way.

None: What was that about?

Was that a me, my mom? Maybe. Come on, dude, you have to tell me. Go home trip. I’ll call you when I find her.

No, I’m not going anywhere. Okay. It wasn’t a suggestion. Either you leave willingly or I’m going to hank off you to the wall for obstructing a police investigation.

Why are you keeping us here? Why are you keeping her here? Susan hasn’t told you.

I thought you’d have told her is on fine now.

Well, I can’t explain what I’d still don’t understand.

Well, it’s perfectly simple, really. When my beloved Susan walked out of my life without any warning whatsoever… No warning!

I saw from the terrible arguments we had every day about how jealous, jealous, jealous and possessive you were…

No cause, no letters. As if she just dropped off the face of the earth. Until…

The newsreeler shared the crushing news that my beloved Susan was dead… Incinerated beyond recognition.

Spoiler alert! I wasn’t dead.

None: Hello?

Who is this? What do you mean Susan’s alive? Well, yes, I’ll do anything if I could see her again. Two men bought her here, half dead. For months I nursed her back to health. Okay, wait, wait a minute.

Who are these men? Who else knows that Susan’s alive?

You’re not serious. Oh, I am. I’ll cuff you right now. Do you even have cuffs on you? Yeah, look, Rafe, I know we don’t exactly like each other. We both want to find my mom and Harris and Susan Banks if she’s actually alive. I know I’m on better than you do. I know her habits and I know what she’s told me. I can help you. We’re wasting time. Yeah, we are.

Okay, fine. Okay, fine. Let’s go.

I’ve been…

I feel horrible about all of this. So you told me. But that was before I knew it was about my family.

I know, okay, and trust me, I feel worse because of it. I feel very ashamed right now. You’ve been so good to me, okay, and your daughter, she’s the reason I’m not in prison. I hope you agree that she doesn’t need to know about this. It was just one time and I promise you it’s never going to happen again, okay? You’re not going to tell her are you. As much as I can, I’m not going to tell her. I’m not going to tell her are you.

As much as I would like to. I am bound by doctor of patient confidentiality. But in my experience, secrets have a way of getting out.

No one else knows about this. My sister didn’t want anyone to know because she knew how much it would hurt you. Again, I am so sorry for all of it.

None: I’m going to take this down to prison.

Val, I love my name’s sorry. I will do anything or do anything to fix it.

Look, I know that we still have to work together and I know this is probably going to be uncomfortable.

Yes, it will. But I can behave professionally. Can you do that?

And I guess you can probably now agree that I need a therapist. I do. Of course. I just want you to know that you really need to know that you have to know about this. I want you to know that you really need help. I’m so sorry that I let you down. I deserve that.

None: That is the least of what you deserve. Well, I know you’re feeling angry right now and I know you’re feeling humiliated. Okay, you’re the one. You’re the one that did everything right now.

I’m not going to do anything. I’m not going to do anything. I’m not going to do anything.

I’m not going to do anything. I’m not going to do anything. Okay, you’re the one.

You’re the one that did everything right and I did everything wrong. Oh my God, please spare me the whole sad-ass victim routine. You don’t have any idea what I feel. You know, for the last few weeks, you’ve been dredging up everything about my past with Philip and EJ and throwing it in my face and all the while you were sleeping with Talia.

No, I was not. I wasn’t.

It happened one time. Oh God, I don’t care how many times it happened. It’s not the same thing. You and I were not married when I was with Philip. I was separated when I was with EJ. And you know, the only reason that we were separated is because you invited Jan to come live in our house and basically let our pregnant ask me out of my own home.

Okay, okay, okay. But we were married when you decided to go out and sleep with your professor back in Maine.

Oh, okay.

So we’re keeping score now? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. It seems to me like you’re the one doing that. Just stop it. Listen.

I know that you have been going through hell with everything happening with your dad and with Victor. And I tried to do everything in my power to be there for you through everything. I was so supportive and I was understanding that you and gave you grace when you said you were going to quit drinking and then you didn’t. Even when you got belligerent and even violent and almost lost your job twice, I stayed by your side. They even went to a meeting with you yesterday. And what did they say? They said, not only do you have to be truthful with others, but you have to be honest with yourself too. And even then you didn’t tell me. You just lied to me.

It was because I knew that the truth would hurt you worse than you lied.

Yeah, of course it hurt me. It hurt me more than you could possibly know because I thought this was the one thing you would never do to me or to us. And now I know I’m living a lie.

Well, my doctor, the server who called in the tip. Sure enough, he was able to ID Eva and Harris from the passport photos. They were here yesterday. Okay, all right, did he say anything else? Yeah, he used his phone to look something up. Okay, but you did, of course I checked the search history. I looked up a guy named Edmund P. Crumb.

None: Who’s that?

I’m Corinne to the web. Susan’s first husband.

Okay, I’ll call Wendy and see if she needs to get an address.

Oh, this guy’s necessary. We got her right here.

I have in the foggiest notion who these men were or who their boss was. They just told me that nobody must know where she was because she was in danger of some deranged woman drove off the side of a cliff.

And this is your idea of keeping her safe, keeping her in this room chained up like a dog? Oh, hold on.

I mean, there’s a little bit more to it than that. You know, you see, when I finally woke up…

Susan, can you hear me?

Edmund. Yes, darling, it’s Edmund. You’re in London. I’m taking care of you.

Where’s my Russia?

Roger. Who’s Roger? His man is red. Your husband? He’s a need him, I need my Roger.

After all I’ve done for you, I’ve fed you and bathed you. This is the thanks I get. You want you, Roger?

Get in, Edmund, Edmund. I really, really do appreciate everything he does for me, but… I don’t love you.

I love my Roger. Yeah.

Oh, man. And that is how I ended up like this. Okay, you know what, Edmund? What are you gonna do? You’re gonna keep Ava in hairs here, too?

Wait a minute. Your name’s Ava. Ava Vitale, the woman that tried to kill my Susan? Oh, for heaven’s sake. Ava, not your children! Well, it was an inconvenience to have you to stumble on my little situation. And I wasn’t gonna hurt innocent people. However, now I know that you’re not innocent, I’m gonna have to do something to take care of you.

Cheetah, what are you doing here?

I came to check on our gunshot wound patient and also to warn you. Wearing me about what? James, I’m so sorry, Talia. But Elle knows about you and Sean.

Elle, I love you. I always have, and I always will. And nothing is gonna change that. What happened, Talia? It was a mistake. And it wasn’t because I wanted her. Okay, it was because I was drunk. And you and I just got into this terrible fight, and then, I don’t know, she was just there. Right.

So you just jumped into bed with a woman you barely know? Who’d just been through hell herself? Did it make you feel better?

No, no, no, it did not. I take full responsibility for everything that happened, and please, don’t go and blame her for this.

I don’t blame her for this. I blame you. Only you. Because this was your way of getting back at me, right?

What are you talking about?

Yeah, because you could never stand the fact that I had ever been with anyone else, and you have just been dying for a reason to hurt me the way it hurt me.

No, no, that’s not true.

Yeah, it is. That’s how you use the past to justify training on me. No, I’ve…

No, there’s nothing that justifies this. Nothing. I know that. You know what? I guess if I’m gonna be truthful here, I guess that… You know what? You’re past. It did in some way, it… it justified what happened, you know? Because you know what? I think that if I were to forgive you for everything that you did, I would think that you would be able to understand and forgive me.

Well, I don’t understand, Sean. And I don’t forgive you either.

Well, just… Please, how I swear to you, I won’t do anything. Anything that I can do with the Fixals, just tell me I swear.

There’s nothing you can do. Nothing.

Susan? What do you think Edmund’s gonna do?

What? I haven’t focused. Does he have a history of violence? Well, yeah.

Well, what? Well, what, huh?

I mean, look, he’s prepped a chain gap here for months, so obviously he’s got a screw loose somewhere.

Okay, I shouldn’t talk. I know that, but come on. I mean, if he was gonna kill us, he would have killed us by now, right? Yeah, we probably. Everybody didn’t know who you were until just now, but… Charlotte, freak you out, but you did, Hess.

And you really didn’t answer.

Okay, time, time, time, time. I will answer. All right, let’s see. Weird, Edmund, pay crumb. Kill someone out of the blue for no reason. No, but… For what?

None: What?

I really has killed before.

Yes, can I help you?

So you’re saying crumb committed murder?

What? I mean, what he thought he was killing Christian to protect me? What are you talking about, Christian is still alive? Well, I know that. I know that. Hey, that’s okay. See, he mistook my late sister Penelope for Christian. I mean, they said so much alive. Anyway, okay. You know what? And then she and Edmund… Well, they got into this nasty, nasty struggle, causing Penelope to tumble into the swimming pool and causing Edmund to push her head under the water. Yeah, and that was the end of Penelope.

Okay, so what do you say?

I guess what I’m saying, Mr. Harris, is that if he’s done it before, then… Yes, I think he’s capable of killing a kid.

Edmund, the crumb? Yes, you are? Commissioner Ray Fernandez, Salem P.D., USA. And this is my… Soap seat. Trip Johnson.

The Salem, did you say? Mm-hmm. That’s where my late wife used to live. Where she died, so I heard. What a coincidence. For sure. Yeah.

How may I help you? Right, yes. So we’re looking for two Salem locals who have gone missing, and, uh, well… They have reason to believe that they’re in London. So… You see me there, these… There you go. These two people?

That’s her. That’s the woman that killed my beloved Susan. I thought she was in a mental institution. Yeah, she was. But, uh…

She escaped.

It’s terrible. The woman that killed my Susan shouldn’t be running around free. She’s a minister society. She shouldn’t even be alive.

We were in the interrogation room together, and I didn’t think anyone was going to walk in.

Let alone Belle. I thought the conversation was between us. Why would you talk to Sean about it?

Why, I hadn’t planned on it. But it’s just the moment I saw him, and after we talked, I just… I had to confront him. I mean, you were vulnerable, and he took advantage of that.

Jada, he was vulnerable, too. Okay, he didn’t force me to do anything. I’m just as responsible as he is from what happened.

I know, but it’s just… Please.

Listen, okay, you cannot let what happen, and if you’re with your work relationship. Sean… Sean is a good guy. Okay, he went through hell, and he made a huge mistake. Both… Both… He and I did. Yeah, but I just…

I hate that it’s all coming out like this.

Well, it was going to come out eventually, wasn’t it? I suppose. Look, I… I just hope that you don’t look at me differently because of this. Oh.

Talia, I love you, okay? I am not judging you at all.

Thank you. Thank you for never giving up on me, and for always being there.

There.

None: Anytime.

God, I have to get out of here.

Okay, let’s go home.

I don’t want to go home. I don’t want to be anywhere near you.

This old… What is it that you’re saying? Well, why are we supposed to go from here then?

I have no idea, but I know I want you to leave me alone. Aw, fuck!

None: directions I know. Question. fallen disagree. I Oh I’m sorry I this you’re very sweet girl, but this is look this is my fault. No, okay. It was me too

Look, I know there’s a lot more for us to say But I’ve got a got a tell bell worm so There’s any way that you know, you could just not say anything about last night just until

Figure out what I’m gonna say to her. Yeah, I understand. I won’t say a word

How to go with Chanel

Chanel. Yeah, did you like the flowers? Oh? I don’t know Chanel and I are seeing each other anymore. What? Yeah, she decided to get back with your nephew Johnny. Oh

Sean, I am really sorry. Yeah, no, thank you, but that was gonna find out one way or another You want to talk about it?

No, no, I’m good

Your nickers in a twisty twist. I mean we did not know that for a fact Oh, we know enough we need to find a way out of here. Hey, we’re gonna get out of here

I’ve been in much worse spots than this. Yeah, so if I show hip, I Promise you For that creep touches a hair on your head You have to kill me first

Yeah, well actually the people that we are looking for are under the impression that Susan Banks is still a lot

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I wish I had…Details? Any details?

Oh, I wish I had more. I wish I had a fly on the wall.

But just vice to say, everything I said was going to happen is now a feta complete.

So, Vivian is out on her fanny, huh?

Indeed she is, and if there’s any justice in the world, she’ll become a pauper and never darken on her doorways again.

What can only hope?

Well, Victor made it very clear in his will that Maggie is… is widowed, which means that succubus is entitled to nothing.

Well, you have made my day. I’m grateful for the update.

Oh, uh, uh, I’ve got to, uh, gotta go.

Does that somebody arrive?

Stay close.

Hi there.

Thank you for arriving on time.

Hi, Dr. Evans. Um, actually, I came to tell you that…

I think it’s time for me to find a new therapist.

Yeah, well, since, uh, you know, Rifen Jada took off to London to look for Eva and, uh, and Harris, things have been pretty quiet around here.

Except for, you know, a little extra paperwork for me, but, you know, it’s not that I can’t handle.

It’s okay. You don’t have to explain. I’m sorry if I made you feel like I was checking up on you.

No, don’t apologize, Bell. After everything that I put you through, I totally understand that you’re concerned.

But hey, I’m more focused and I’m more clear-headed than I’ve ever been. And Bell, I want you to know that I’m determined to get my life back on track.

So I can be the husband that you deserve.

I want you to know that you deserve to deserve.

Quite a beer. What on earth are you talking about? Are we never asleep with your husband?

Oh, God, almighty, honestly, do you really think that I’m that thick?

I saw you two together. And I sent them.

What do you mean?

I had my suspicions. I got feeling, you know, ever since you turned up to my honeymoon and gave me that preposterous story about some Madonna concert.

But I wasn’t entirely sure. That is, until I left to go get you a nice little Icelandic frozen treat, and then I doubled back to confirm my suspicions and, well, where have I ever confirmed?

I walked in, saw my best friend with my husband, going at it.

Gwynnie. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Come on. Go on then. Gaslight me, Mattie. Tell me I’m wrong. Tell me I’m just being paranoid.

Tell me that this is all just some big misunderstanding.

Oh, I’m not going to do that.

Because you’re right. I’ve been sleeping with Demetri.

It’s okay. You can keep the chairs. We have honey.

Nice try. It makes you feel any better. You two are going to make absolutely beautiful corpses.

In situations like this, I like to act first and then ask questions later.

Hello, my darling. Are you all right? Yes. Thanks to you.

I always had perfect timing.

Have you been unhappy with our sessions? What? No, no. Dr. Evans, you’ve done so much for me.

I seriously, I can’t thank you enough. Thank you. Are you uncomfortable because we’re colleagues?

Yeah. Yeah, that’s it. I’m just worried that things are good. A little awkward.

I see. I can tell you that I do have several patients. You’re at the hospital.

And we’ve been able to keep our professional boundaries.

You know, it occurred to me that you only have a couple sessions left of your court-ordered therapy.

I’m not sure what would happen to that if you changed therapists.

Well, maybe I should just continue working with you then.

It’s entirely your call, whatever you want to do. Do you want to continue now or do you have to get back to work?

Actually, I just want to shift. Oh, good. I’m going to sit down.

Tell me what’s happened since our last session.

So I was thinking after work, we should go out to dinner. And then after that, we can go to look out point like we did when we were in high school

and I don’t have a little make-out session.

Babe, I think we’re a little too old for that.

Is that a no?

That’s maybe.

Okay, great. Great. I’m looking forward to it.

Me too.

All right, I’ll see you at home, I love you.

Oh, Jada. Oh, wait. I thought you were in London with Grace.

I landed a few hours ago.

So how did it go with Eva and Michael’s?

Well, it went. You know, we tracked them to a hotel, but they never returned to their room.

Oh, man. I’m sorry to hear that.

Yeah. Ray felt that one of us should come back here and keep an eye on things.

Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, I can bring them to speed.

Right. But first, we need to clear the air.

About what?

Well, the fact that you slept with my sister.

Oh, my Tyson. That really hurt.

But you aren’t talking to me about being hurt. How about you discover that your husband is sleeping with your best friend

and you talk to me about being bloody hurt?

Okay, okay, okay. I totally deserve that pie in the face and the punch. I know that.

I haven’t felt this much shame since that drunken Santa caught me stealing ornaments off that big fake tree at the mall.

What? I was 19. I was working as an elf for $9 an hour.

Read the room. My God, this is not time for one of your stupid bloody anecdotes.

All right, fine. No more anecdotes. I promise. Look, it’s what I do when I feel nervous and guilt ridden.

I try and be funny to diffuse the tension.

Gwynne, I’m sorry. I am so sorry. I will get down on my hands and knees and beg for forgiveness.

Oh, wow. Really? Really? Do you really, really think that I’m going to forgive you after this?

You knew. You knew that I was falling in love with Dimitri and yet you still went after him.

No, no, it was not like that. Do you remember when the two of you first got together?

I didn’t trust him, as you know. The whole express lane engagement. It didn’t pass the smell test.

So, like any good friend, I snuck into his house and I searched his bedroom.

Yes, and then he caught you and then he somehow convinced you that he didn’t have some ulterior motive.

Well, that’s only sort of true. Actually, I found the carousel. I read it and it stated that in order for Dimitri to inherit the von Loyshner fortune,

he had to be married by his 40th birthday. Yes, I know. I’m not daft. Hence the whole whirlwind romance.

I know that he was bloody using me the whole time.

Right. Exactly. And believe me, I was livid. I was ready to go full Kung Fu movie on that entire house.

Cottasol on hand, kicking ass and taking names.

But then…

He kissed me.

And at first I thought, oh great, here’s another straight guy flirting with me to get what he wants, but…

Well, it turns out that Dimitri is about as straight as a crop circle.

And I don’t know why, but for some reason he was genuinely attracted to me.

I laughed, didn’t I?

Because he screwed me up.

I was.

I laughed, didn’t I? Because he screwed you. And then he screwed me.

He’s bleeding pretty badly, we need to call him ambulance.

Why would we do that? That cycle tried to murder us, he deserves to die.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I agree with your wife.

So all it took was one night of sex with some European weasel to stab your best friend in the back.

You don’t think I felt awful for betraying you? It ate me up inside.

I would wake up every night in cold sweats, having to watch old reruns of Larry King Live to fall back asleep.

Okay, look, Gwen, I’m not making excuses, but Dimitri was in a bind.

He couldn’t marry a man, those backwards von Leushers wouldn’t allow that.

And he was running out of time, the clock was ticking, there was no time to find someone who wasn’t you.

Yeah, right, because no other woman would be as stupid as me to fall for his act.

Right? Oh my God. Oh, I was such a fool, just blathering onto you about how deliriously happy I am that I found this wonderful man who loves me and only me.

You and Dimitri must have been snickering behind my back the whole time.

No, absolutely not. There was no snickering at all. I have been racked with guilt.

Oh, come on.

You don’t give a damn about anybody but yourself. All you cared about was shagging my husband only to have scond off to some tropical aisle somewhere with a giant suitcase filled with money.

Otherwise, he never…

He never would have let me put on that wedding dress and walk down the aisle as some glorified beard.

I tried to stop. No, but you didn’t, did you?

You threw away our friendship.

Dimitri, his magic penis.

No. You have to listen to me. It wasn’t just about the sex.

I love him.

I know you’re used to me being ironic and often wildly funny, but this is me being real with you.

Wow.

Well, congratulations. Ladies and gentlemen.

Leo Stark is being real. Look at that.

Well, you know what? I hope that your love is really real love because when it comes to money, you and your little lover, you’re going to be living in poverty because you’re not going to see one cent of that inheritance.

What are you talking about?

Revenge.

What do you honestly think that I would just suck it up and let you and MP just make a fool of me?

What kind of a wrench?

What a name.

Little something that Kristen and I just cooked up.

Kristen…

She was supposed to be Dimitri’s ally.

Yes.

That is until your little lover swindled her out of her half of the prize money.

Kristen didn’t like that.

In fact, she didn’t like that so much. She was very, very happy to tell me that you and Dimitri already got part of your first instalment from that lawyer.

When you tried to pass yourself off as maybe in a bloody wig, really the audacity.

Okay, well, I mean, that didn’t exactly work. I’m not as expected anyway, but listen.

Now that you know about the castle and the smorgasbord of lies for which I deeply regret, I’m certain that Dimitri would be happy to share the money.

You see, that won’t be necessary. You know why? Because his wife, Mrs Von Lorschner, that’s me, thank you very much, went to the bank today to pull out a very sizable withdrawal.

Have you ever seen so many theories?

I know I haven’t.

You took Dimitri’s money?

Yes, he’s lucky that that’s all I took.

What does that mean?

It means Kristen’s original plan. She wanted to kill him. She wanted to kill the pull bastard.

Okay, we can’t just let him die.

I need to speak for yourself. I’m not lifting a finger for this son, Vettel.

And what about the shares, huh? He needs to be alive in order to sign over the stock certificates.

Stock certificates?

Yes, Dimitri has full control. Is and Meghan shares of Dimitri?

Gabby and I were in the process of blackmailing him and handing him over to us and now…

Why didn’t you say so?

Excuse me. Where are the stock certificates?

Dimitri, hey, you need a hand over your two shares right now, or we’re gonna let you bleed out right here, right now.

Screw you, Dimitri.

Mm-hmm. Buddy, I have been vouching for you this entire time, but if you stop cooperating, that ends now.

You wouldn’t.

Ahh, fine, fine!

Behind me in the briefcase.

What’s the combo?

My birthday. Oh, wait. Oh, what?

Your Leo. I’ll finish.

Okay.

Great.

Thank you.

I’m the sunbeast. All right?

They’re all done.

Oh, now you can let them crumb.

No, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, that’s not what we just…

Hey, hey, listen to me. Matthew, I am a man of my word.

I’m going to hold up my end of the bargain.

Okay.

Okay.

That’s why Miss Winkentalia confided in you.

Not exactly.

I ran into Eric, and he told me that you said that I let you stay the night in my room the other night, and that was not true.

But you didn’t tell him that, did you?

No.

But when I spoke to Talia, I figured it out, and then we had a talk.

Oh.

My God, Sean, when are you going to get it together?

Look, I’m trying.

Well, try harder, because you are not only hurting yourself, you are hurting everyone around you, and most of all, and most importantly, your wife.

Me and Rafe, and now my sister?

Yeah, the job’s going really well.

Everyone’s been super welcoming.

Good.

What about your personal life? How is it with Chanel?

Um, actually, she broke up with me.

I was completely bi-excited, but I guess I should have expected that, right?

I was a mess, Dr. Evans.

I mean, the night that we split up, I’d be my straight to the brave hub.

And I got wasted.

Well, I can understand your reaction to that, but I don’t know. Getting wasted is…

Well, can become a very self-destructive behavior. You don’t want that.

Tilly.

What do you mean?

Oh, yeah? What?

Um, I did something really stupid.

After I got wasted.

Self-destructive, like you said.

What did you do?

I slept with a married man.

I’m not a very good person.

I’m not a good person.

I’m not a good person.

I’m not a good person.

I know what you must be thinking, right?

That I’m this terrible person.

I’m here to listen.

Not to judge you.

Yeah, okay. I appreciate that.

But I think that I’m a terrible person.

I have no defense except for the fact that either one of us planned on sleeping with each other.

I don’t know what just sort of happened.

How does it just sort of happen?

It was a chance meeting at the brave hub.

I mean, the sky and I…

We were both. We were going through so much.

So we started talking and then the drinks started flowing.

And before you know it, the bartender cut us off.

And so we went up to my room to have more drinks.

And then one thing led to another.

And before you know it, we ran back.

Hey, mom, I’m… Oh.

Sorry, I didn’t know you were with anyone.

Actually, I have to go anyways.

Things as if they’re short staff and they want me to come back on duty for a GSW.

So…

Thank you so much for listening.

It’s our good things.

And I just hear him straighten you.

I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean that in a row.

Yeah, I know.

Well, you know, I was about to reach out to you.

I also got on the shore.

Well, that’s actually why I’m here.

Look, I know Talia isn’t blameless.

I know.

But honestly, I just wish that you would have thought about the position that you’re putting her in.

Because now she has to keep secrets from Belle.

And not to mention her own therapist. Who happens to be your mother-in-law.

I know. I know. I know.

I’m sorry. I screwed up. I screwed up bad.

I assume you aren’t going to tell Belle.

I don’t know. I just…

Look, I love her so much.

Look, I can’t lose her. I don’t know what I would do if I lost her.

I have to go.

There’s been a shooting at the D’Mara mansion.

Okay, listen, I’ll go with you. I prefer you, David.

Jada, I know that you are very unhappy with me.

I know that you have every reason to be. But that doesn’t change the fact that we’re partners.

And you might need me.

Fine.

Let’s go.

So how is he?

Hey, let’s just take him away.

Well, I imagine Salem’s finest is going to be here any minute.

What are we going to tell them?

How about the truth?

Are you kidding?

That’s the last thing we should do is tell them the truth.

Kristen wanted to kill Demetri.

I knew she was a conniving bitch. I didn’t know she was bloodthirsty.

Yes, well, a little birdie told her that since Victor Kiriakis didn’t have a will,

the moustache twirling Vivian Alamein was next in line to inherit the late Greek magnate state.

And so Kristen deduced that since Demetri also doesn’t have a will.

If he were to die, then his wedded wife, that would be me.

Thank you very much. Would become his soul heir.

My God, that is pure evil.

Yes.

But you see, lucky for your swindling little paramour, I convinced Kristen to settle for a one-time payout.

Minus all the pallbearers and the eulogies, and of course I will be divorcing him immediately,

which means that that will result in him losing his inheritance.

It’s really just such a pity.

Who’s that?

Tell a marketer, or is it your lover, MP? Go on.

Answer it then. There should be a hoot.

I hate Demetri, we have…

Wait, who is this?

Oh my God, tell him I’ll be right there.

Something in the matter?

That was apparent.

Demetri’s been shot.

And I know you’re behind this.

No, I don’t know what you did.

You just told me you were planning on killing him.

I told you that I talked to Kristen.

She talked her out of it because if she shot him, you are just as responsible.

Hello? Hi, can you help me please?

I’m looking for information on Demetri Von Leuthener, who is brought in with a gunshot wound.

Well, are you family?

He’s my boyfriend.

I’m sorry.

Please, please. He’s my entire world. There has to be something you can tell me.

Okay, well, we just took him into surgery to extract a bullet.

Is he gonna be okay?

I don’t know. It’s kind of hard to say right now.

He lost a lot of blood.

Oh my God. Oh my God.

I’ll let you know as soon as I know anything. Okay.

Thank you.

What the hell are you doing here? Did you come to finish the job?

Okay, what is wrong with telling the truth?

You shot Demetri, you just stopped him from shooting us.

You’re not gonna go to jail for that.

My dear, have you forgotten that I just got out of prison?

And for my probation, my second amendment rights were taken away from me.

Okay, well then, why do you have a gun?

For protection.

Then what the hell are we supposed to tell the police, huh?

We’re doing a civil war re-enactment.

Oh, well, then just tell them Gabby did it.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I don’t think so.

Excuse me. I just saved your life.

You owe me one.

I do not think it is wise to be changing the story.

What if Demetri contradicts it?

Well, it’s our word against his.

Stefan, don’t.

Listen to her. We should tell the truth.

Stefan, please. I protected you.

Can’t you return the favor?

We’re here about the shooting.

Would someone care to tell us what happened?

I know that you and Sean had a fight the other night,

were you able to work things out?

Yeah, I think things are better now,

but before he really went off the rails.

How so?

Well, he disappeared.

He got very, very drunk, and I didn’t hear from him until the next morning.

Well, he must have been so worried.

Yeah, I was playing every worst case scenario in my head, of course,

but it turns out he slept at the pub.

He ended up crashing in Jada’s room because she was at work,

and so was Talia, so…

There’s he.

It was a chance at the pretty pub.

Me and Skye and I, we were both were going through so much.

So we started talking, and then the drinks started flowing,

and before you know it, the bartender cut us off.

And so we went up to my room to have more drinks.

And then one thing led to another,

and before you know it, we ran back.

Oh, my God.

Ma.

What’s wrong?

Oh, nothing. Nothing. I just…

I guess I just realized how bad this situation had gotten between you and Sean.

Yeah.

But like I said, it’s getting better.

You know, the next day it was very apologetic.

I’ll bet.

Yeah.

You know, he said he’s very committed to getting his life back on track,

and I know he said that before, but I really…

There’s something in his voice that just made it feel really authentic.

You know, he even asked me to go to an AA meeting,

and it totally helped him.

I’m glad he’s making an effort.

I think you should be cautious.

Oh, I know.

Listen, I get it. The last few months, it’s been one step forward and two steps back,

but I’m just encouraged, you know, and I’m very encouraged that he wants to continue doing sessions with you.

Good.

I’ll do all I can to help you know that.

You, Mom.

You know, for a long time, I really feared that our marriage was in really deep trouble,

but I just think Sean and I have turned a corner.

You know, I just… I really believe the worst is behind us now.

Well, who wants to go first?

Okay, I’ll tell you what happened.

My wife and I were upstairs, and we heard a gunshot.

We came down here, walked into the room found my nephew, Demetri, on the ground,

bleeding pretty badly, but he was still breathing, so we called 911.

Did Demetri say who shot him?

He was pretty messed up, actually.

He was just speaking a bunch of garbled this and that, couldn’t really make it out.

So you didn’t see or hear anyone leaving?

Unfortunately not, but whoever did this must have left the gun and taken the cannoli.

Huh?

Please.

Do you mean if you recognize this?

No.

What about you, Vivian? Any insight as to what might have happened here?

My mother arrived after the ambulance left.

She didn’t see anything.

Do any of you have any idea who may want to harm Mr. von Wischner?

Honestly?

I have no idea.

I swear on everything I hold dear, I did not shoot Demetri.

Great. Well, then I guess your pal, Kristen did,

which makes you an accompanist.

She promised me she gave me her work that she wouldn’t.

Then why are you here?

Because that bastard does not get to die before me telling him a first.

There is no way that’s going to happen.

I am not letting you anywhere near Demetri.

Not letting me.

I’m his wife.

And I’m the man he loves.

My god.

It’s true.

You two really are in love.

I’m sorry, Goni.

We should have come clean with you from the beginning.

You’re supposed to be my best friend, Maddy.

I’m the one person in this whole world.

I thought I had my back.

Yeah, we’ve done some…

We’ve done some underhanded things for another in the past,

but this is…

This is just beyond the pale.

I messed up.

I’m not going to do that.

I messed up.

I messed up, okay?

Just tell me what I can do to fix it.

Please, anything. I will do anything. Just tell me.

Nothing.

You can’t do anything on friendships.

I hope I can do anything.

Please.

Please.

Mr. Von Wachner is out of surgery now.

If you’d like to see him.

Go.

Go.

You and I have nothing left to say to one another now.

Who is in this bag.

Welcome.

I don’t know if you can hear me.

I turned Judge Judy off.

I hope that’s okay.

I love you, Dimitri von Leischer.

I love you more than I’ve ever loved anything.

And I’m not leaving your side.

Not now, not ever.

Now that Gwennie knows the truth,

you’re all I have left in the world.

Christian, where the hell are you?

Dimitri’s been shot,

and I pray that you want the one who pulled the trigger.

Thank you.

Covering for me.

What did you expect me to do?

Let them hand cover,

frog march her back to prison,

and to protect my mother.

Or at least this time you didn’t have to take a bullet for her.

I knew I could count on you.

That’s why I came back here.

Are you kidding me?

You’re here because you inherited

Victor’s entire fortitude.

Shouldn’t you be in, like, meek-unos?

Actually, and it turned out that

Victor had a will.

So, I have nothing except a son

that takes care of his adoring mother.

That never ends.

You said you wanted to see me?

Yes, I do.

Um, do you have a moment to talk?

I, uh, I’m afraid we didn’t get a chance

to finish our session.

Um, it’s not much more to say.

I, uh, too much told you everything.

Well, I actually know.

You didn’t tell me that the man you slept with

is my son-in-law.

If you hear my notes,

I’m sending the report and I’ll drop the gun off with forensics.

Jada, wait.

I, you and I were,

were good, right?

You focus on getting your act together

and we’ll see what happens.

Okay, well, I will.

Just, until then,

look, this is really awkward to have to ask you this, but, um…

Don’t worry.

I’m not going to tell anyone that you slept with my sister.

I’m not going to tell anyone that you slept with me.

And I can learn.

I’m not going to tell anyone that you slept with her.

Yeah.

Uh…

Uh, I got to stay.

Uh…

I won’t let you go.

Go.

Ok.

I’d have to make sure you’re whole that.

Can you give me your Golden

Witches without paperwork?

Okay.

Just cut their got off.

I’ll let you go,

and I’ll take this one’s.

You have a moment?

We didn’t have time to finish our session.

There’s not much more to say.

I pretty much told you everything.

No, I don’t think you did.

You didn’t mention that you had slept with my son-in-law.

I-I-I don’t-I don’t know what you’re talking about.

When we agreed, two could start therapy.

We discussed the fact that you would be open and honest and forthright.

So let me ask you again.

Did you sleep with my son-in-law?

Yes.

I did.

Here are my notes.

Send a report and I’ll drop off the gun with forensics.

Wait, Judah.

Um, you and I were good, right?

Just focus on getting your hands up.

I’m not sure.

I’m not sure.

I’m not sure.

I’m not sure.

I’m not sure.

I’m not sure.

Just focus on getting your act together and we’ll see what happens.

I will.

I will.

But until then, if this is-this is awkward to ask you, but um…

Don’t worry.

I’m not going to tell anyone that you slept with my sister.

He just did.

Hey, Judah.

Just call him to check in.

He gives you in the middle of something.

Anyway, Eva and Michael still haven’t come back to the hotel room.

Local cops got a call out for tips.

See if they can turn up anything.

All right, give me a call when you get a chance.

Bye.

Freeze!

Don’t shoot, don’t shoot.

Trip.

What the hell are you doing here?

What do you think?

I’m worried about my mom.

David.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, God.

Hey.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I am.

I think I am.

What happened?

Miss Chrome.

Poisoned her tea.

Oh, what, wait, wait.

Am I imagining things or did he say that he had Susan locked up in the back bedroom somewhere?

What in the world?

What are you doing?

I don’t know, I don’t know.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yes, your job is to eradicate every vestige of Maggie Horton’s hideous bourgeois taste. Oh, yeah, come after lunch, and we’ll start from scratch. And, oh. And bring a dumpster. Everything goes. Everything.

Also loud.

I’m coming. I’m coming.

Good you’re here. I gave it the office. Dad told me the score. Your dad told you the score. It’s my ex dad. Bad no more.

Okay. The sun is out, the leaves are turning wondrous colors, and the birds are singing. Meaning… Meaning it’s time to turn this day into the bleakest… Darkest and most hopeless day that my husband and best friend have ever experienced. Oh, great minds. Those swine have betrayed me in the most unimaginable way.

Now we just have to find a punishment. Something that will fit their crimes.

Gabby! Stefan! Open the door, you are in mortal danger! Please, listen to me, I’m the only thing standing between you and certain death!

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

No one’s hurt, right? You two are gonna be just fine. It’s just a little flesh wound. Do you know how to do CPR? Leo, it’s no use. You’re beating a dead horse. You actually went through with it? You killed them? It would appear so. Oh my god, what the matter with you? Oh, but darling. Everything I did, I did it for us.

For us.

Oh, thank God. A dream. Just a horrible, ghastly dream.

Well, why the closed door, Kristen? There are no secrets in this house, are there? Oh, no. It was my idea, my darling. To close the doors, that is. Because I, I didn’t want you to hear what I was asking, Kristen. Relationship advice.

No, no, um, no, uh. Not that. I was, um, asking her on what to surprise you with. Surprise me? What kind of a surprise? A very fun surprise, of course. Because I think you so deserve it. Doesn’t he deserve it? I think he deserves it. Because…

Because you’re… The man.

That I almost immediately overnight. Well, uh, let’s not forget who fell in love with you nearly as quickly. Oh, trust me. Gwen never lets herself forget that for one single day. Um,

Alex, come on, you can’t think like that. I can’t think like what? I can’t tell it like it is? That the guy that I thought was my dad apparently had nothing to do with my being brought into the world? And that actually explains a lot, and why he’s such a low respected, you know, dignified guy, and I’m not. Oh, come on, that’s not And why you?

The guy who I thought was my brother is loved by one and all. And I’m not. Okay, first of all, that is so not true. Can you leave now, please? No! What? No! I’m not gonna leave until I figure out why you’re feeling so damn sorry for yourself, alright? Nothing has changed. I am still your brother. Dad is still your dad.

Right. It’s just that my mother had an affair with Victor and obviously they were too stupid to use a birth control, so they had a baby, a. k. a. me. And even though Uncle Victor… Didn’t think that I deserved to know that my father wasn’t my father. You say that doesn’t change anything, right? That doesn’t matter?

I’m not, I’m not saying that it doesn’t matter. What I’m saying is my relationship with you, Dad’s relationship with you, the connection we have with each other, the love. We have for each other. Why does any of that have to change? Why does it have to change? I’ll tell you why it has to change. Sonny, a little thing called reality.

Some stone cold facts, and here they are. You ready? Listen. I’m listening. My dad is not my dad. And you and I are not brothers. End of story.

Did you get my message last night? I told you I needed to see you and it was very important. I got your message. I ignored it. And you are trespassing. Not when I have this. It seems that Victor did have a will after all. And this is

it. So what is it like? I mean, is it nicely decorated? Is there a view? I’m so curious. Hmm. Well, Sloan’s apartment is, it’s lovely. I mean, it’s bright, it’s spacious. The important thing is that Eric seems to be happy. Seems to be? Well, he did say that he and Sloan are very compatible. Wow. You know, I wish them both the very best.

Speaking of moves, have you heard the latest about Vivian? Well, I heard that she had resurfaced. That she had ensconced herself in a mansion and, uh, She was, uh, parading as the victor’s widow. Mm hmm. Well, that is the gist of it. But I heard from Bonnie that all of that is about to end. Really? Mm hmm. Really.

I’m very pleased to report that Vivian Alamein is going to be kicked out on her ass. Huh? You can wave paper in front of my face all you want, Maggie, but the… Fact is, Victor told his lawyer… To destroy the will. Yes. Victor ordered the will that was on file with his estate lawyer to be destroyed and then he wrote this one, Dian.

You really should put that phone down ’cause you need to focus.

This is preposterously. Convenient in point. Unbelievable. Well, in your case, it’s decidedly inconvenient.

My new lawyer discovered that due to a clerical error, my divorce from Vivian Allemagne was never properly executed. This means my beloved Maggie is not legally my wife. It is a mistake I intend to rectify the moment I return to Salem. And then, trust me, heads are gonna roll. He loves saying that. It’s my intention to finalize my divorce and make Maggie my wife as soon as possible.

And in the meantime, I want to ensure that she is provided for in the event of my death. To that end, I hereby leave. 50 percent of my entire estate to Margaret Simmons Horton. Well, I won’t go on because the rest doesn’t involve you. Oh, the hell it doesn’t. Huh, there’s still 50 percent left to go after. Oh, yes.

How about that other 50? Hmm. You know, I really wish you wouldn’t do this, Alex. Do what? Face reality? The reality is you’re wallowing in this self pity when you should be counting your blessings. Alright, our dad, and yes, I’m gonna keep calling him our dad, our dad is a great guy. With a huge heart, and he loves all of his kids, and that includes, and will always include you.

And for you to stand here, and act like your whole world has been turned upside down, and to act like you’re having this self identity crisis, you know what? It’s honestly a little self indulgent and pathetic. Oh, well I’m ready for you to leave now. I am leaving, actually. I’m leaving Salem. I have a plane to catch in about an hour.

And I, I wish I didn’t have to leave Dad like this. But I have to get back. Look at me. And I wish I didn’t have to leave you.

Look, in spite of everything I just said, I know, I know, man, you’re dealing with a lot right now. Okay, and that, that, you’re just venting, and that I’m the person you feel comfortable venting with. I really don’t need to hear all the psychobabble right now. Psychobabble? Okay, how about this then? Stop wallowing.

Wallowing? I’m wallowing? I can’t wallow? Yes, you’re wallowing. You’re drinking yourself into a stupor. You’re isolating yourself from the world. I mean, what else would you call it? I would call it needing some time to think, Sonny. Some time to think alone. To think about the fact that everything I thought about myself up until this point was a lie.

Like the fact that I thought I knew who my father was. Like I thought I knew who my brother was. Listen to me. You’re not listening to me. Listen. Dad’s genetics. His DNA. That’s not what made us brothers. It is the time that we spent together. Is my mom any less of a mom to you? Because she’s not your biological mother?

Our past. None of that has changed, man. You know what, you, you remember you got a D minus in biology and now you’re using genetics to say I’m not your brother? You know what, man? Screw you!

Here’s what I don’t get. Why is Dimitri ignoring our message from last night? I think this calls for a threatening text. How out of character for you. I don’t know what’s worse. Reminding him that he’s going to be losing all his Fun Moisture money when we reveal that his marriage to Gwen is a sham. Or wondering aloud what Gwen might do to his manhood when she finds out he’s been sleeping with Leo.

Why not a little bit of both? Why not? Indeed. I think we need to tighten our thumbscrews here, okay? Once we get Dimitri’s shares, we’re gonna be top dogs at DiMera. Okay, not so fast, Gabby. Because since we last talked about this, I’ve done some thinking, and I counted all the shares. And if we get Dimitri’s, we will only have enough to be in a tie for who has the most votes.

Am I loved? You don’t need to go through the trouble of surprising me. You know I’m more than happy. Status quo. Oh, I know you are, my darling. But you see, I read somewhere that surprises are the secret to a fairy. Happy marriage. Oh, really? Well, now you’ve got me on pins and needles. Good. That’s exactly where I want to start.

Okay. Well then, I, uh, I will take my leave and let you conspire. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, Dimitri. Don’t, don’t go. We need to talk about the outstanding DiMera business. Remember? Nonsense. We can talk about that any time. Let me go get the door and let you and Gwen get back to planning my surprise.

Did you see that? You couldn’t wait to get away from me. Oh, that little weasel. Well, wait until he finds out what kind of a surprise you have in store for him. Just not the surprise that he’ll be expecting. Oh, don’t say that again. Oh! But let’s just be real. Let’s call it what it is. A punishment, as you so aptly did earlier.

And there is only one punishment that fits his crime. I’m listening. We have to kill him.

Tell me you didn’t kill Gabby and Stefan. Tell me you’ve been down. I don’t know if I didn’t kill them. Oh, thank God. Please, by all means, be a little bit louder next time so the whole household knows my plan.

After all, the shares? Right. And again, if we get Dimitri’s, that will only put us in a tie with EJ’s camp 7 to 7. Hear me out. We’ve got my shares and Jake’s, right? I would imagine Kristen, Steven, and Peter will vote with me. But then on EJ’s side, he’s got Tony, and Chad, and Lee, and Johnny, and also Kate’s shares, right?

I can’t imagine any of those people switching sides anytime soon. Yeah, but it doesn’t necessarily mean a stalemate. I mean, what about Lee? What about him? Gabby, there’s no way he’s gonna switch to our side. There’s, there’s too much history. Well, it’ll take some convincing, but it’s doable. Okay, and just how exactly do you plan on convincing Lee?

Well, it’s not gonna be that hard. I’ll seduce him. Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Not dead. Dimitri. Yes.

You are joking, aren’t you? I am only thinking of you, love. You heard about how poor Maggie Horton is out on the street because Victor died without a will? And now Vivian has everything because she is still his legal wife. So? So? Oh, God. If Dimitri buys the farm, then you get every dime coming to him from that stupid codicil.

Not quite. You see, the marriage has to be in effect for at least a year for that codicil to kick in. Ah, but it doesn’t say anything about what happens if one of you dies before the year is up. Right, okay, that’s if I want him dead, yes? But what about you? You don’t give a damn about anyone but yourself and killing him.

You’re just gonna get part of the installment that he got. Why are you so willing to go nuclear? Because I know who’s kind. And these things you have to just nip in the bud. Yeah. Well, sorry, I’m not a murder. Oh gosh. Gwen , you broke out of prison to kill your own sister. Yeah, no. Yes. No, I did not. That’s not true.

That’s not why I came here to kill my sister. I only tried to set up Sarah to make it look like she was attacking Abigail. Right, right. And that is on par with jaywalking. Okay, look, you told me that he went to go deposit a cheque in a bank account that he doesn’t think I know anything about. Yes? Why don’t I go to the bank and withdraw every bloody penny and then you and I can split that?

I mean, isn’t that enough for revenge?

You’ve become such a prude. All right, Gwen. If that’s what you can

live with. Okay. I’ll go to the bank now. You hold down the fort.

I am giving you a lot more than that.

Oh.

Sorry, Gwen. Dimitri has it coming

to him. No, Dimitri, it is just plain wrong. And it’s dangerous! And most important, conjugal visits are not my thing. I am not going to prison, okay? And I am also not giving Gabby and Stefan my shares at Damerica. Gabby is texting me again. This woman is so tiresome. She really does need to die. No, Dimitri!

Please, listen to me! You wouldn’t get away with it. Just let them have the damn shares. You will still have tons of money from marrying Gwen. And how rich do you need to be? I asked a question I never thought I’d hear you ask. There has to be another way, because if something happens to the two of them and the cops question me, I know that I will fold like a cheap lawn chair and I will lose you forever.

Hey, stop. No. You’re not gonna lose me. Then… Then say you’re not gonna do it. Say you will find another way that you’re not going to kill them, please. Please.

Lord, you are persistent. Fine. Fine. They can live the two of us. Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank

you. Just what I needed. Tough love. Actually, it is what you needed, Alex.

Are you at least talked to, Dad? You mean my cousin Justin? And I thought I was getting through to you. No, I mean your dad. The guy who raised you. No, I haven’t talked to the guy who raised me, not since after he told me about the letter. After that, I found… That bottle. And that, as they say, was that. Okay.

Well, since you’re obviously too self absorbed… To think about how this new development is affecting everyone else

that is hurting too, Alex, so I suggest you get cleaned up and you go talk to him. Has no point. There’s no, what do you, what do you mean? What do you mean? There’s no point? You, you have to talk to him. The two of you have to talk. I did talk, I did talk to him and it didn’t make sense last night. It doesn’t make sense this morning because at the end of the day, Victor knew that he was my dad.

And he never said a word. I know, and that’s… It’s messed up. Obviously. But there has to be a reason why he did what he did, and I’m, I’m sure he struggled like hell with it. Yeah, and what reason could he possibly have had, Sonny boy?

I don’t know. I don’t know, maybe he thought that his nephew Justin would be a better father than he ever could be. I don’t, I don’t, you would have to talk to Phillip about that. Okay, well then here’s the burning question, Sonny. Why did I have to find out that he was my father after he was dead? He leaves me half his fortune?

What, to try and make up for lying to me my whole life? For pretending to be my uncle? How am I supposed to feel about that? I don’t even know if I want the damn inheritance! Okay, can we not talk about that right now? Because the money aspect is not nearly as important as how everyone is feeling right now.

The important thing is that you try to come to terms with this, Alex. You try to deal with this anger. That you actually try to figure out why Uncle Vic did what he did.

And most importantly, you gotta think about Dad, ma’am. Because I guarantee you, he’s just as messed up as you are about this.

But make no mistake, okay? He does. And he always will. Love you like a son. Alright, and I do. And I always will love you like a brother.

Everything else is pretty meaningless in my book.

You agree with me, don’t you?

It’s not even if I do agree with you. I can’t just let go the fact that I was deceived all my life. I can’t just suddenly learn that Victor Kiriakis is my father. And not be changed in some very fundamental ways. Do you understand that, Sonny? I have to rethink everything. Everything.

Alex. No, not him. Angelica’s letter was crystal clear. So was Victor’s will. Angelica. And Victor. Oh, I was just telling Alex that he had his mother’s killer instinct. Obviously, he has a double dose. Let’s stay on topic, shall we, Vivian? The new will is crystal clear. I get half of Victor’s estate, Alex gets the other half, and there is no third half.

Halves? Halves? There are no halves. It’s all in line.

So, Victor had written a new will. Mm hmm. Yeah, he did, to the tremendous relief of Maggie and the rest of the family. I can only imagine. So that means that Vivian has no claim on the mansion, or anything else for that matter. Yep. Just as I said, she is out on her ass. Could you imagine how satisfying it’s going to be to picture her, that malevolent creature, finally getting what she deserves?

Well, that was very dramatic, but completely useless. Not unlike you. Get out of my house. Oh, Vivian. Did you really think that I was going to let you in the same room as the original Will? That I would come back here before I had it probated. Ah, you know, you have always underestimated me. I am not leaving.

Possession is nine tenths of the law. And you’re always so predictable. No, no, I’m mercurial. You’re predictable. And I’ve come prepared.

How? Prepared how? Deputy Pratt, we’re ready for you now. Deputy? What? What the? That is your eviction notice. Let’s go, Ms. Elliman. It’s Mrs. Kiriakis. Now, if she gives you any trouble, just shoot her. Kristen, I won’t be long.

Oh,

Mattie. What brings you here and what are you two plotting now? Oh, uh, nothing. I, come here, I came to see you. I missed you and I was hoping we could maybe grab some breakfast before work. Oh, golly. Sorry, I wish I could. I’ve just got lots of errands to run in town. Secret errands. Soon then? Yes, absolutely.

And why are you hogging matters? All of a sudden, it seems like ages when you went to go answer the door when you left me and Kristen. Uh, well, um, well, you know, all that, that, that talk inside about surprising me, I was just discussing with Leo what I can do to you, for you, in return. Oh! Another surprise for me?

Well, fair warning, it’s really not easy to pull one over on me.

Right. Well, good luck, you two. I shan’t be long. Just in case you were wondering, no, I did not enjoy that kiss. That’s okay. I’m sure she more than made up for your lack of

enthusiasm. Relax, okay? Leo, everything is going to work out. Okay. Okay, I will relax. Just promise me that the two of them will still be alive when you’re done, not that they deserve that. Habiento mon amor. Habiento mon

amor?

Why is he suddenly speaking French? Ugh, and why do I suddenly feel like my entire life is about to go up in smoke?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! You are not going to seduce Lee! No way, no how! Why not? He obviously still has a thing for me! Exactly! So you are not going to sleep with Lee. You are not going to so much as bat a singular eyelash in his direction. Because let me tell you something. As much as I love power and the prospect of booting EJ out of our shared office, I love my wife even more.

You do know, don’t you, Bat? You’re the only man that I love. I was just saying that to get you all hot and bothered. What? Because I know you have a thing for Chelsea, don’t you? So your whole pitching you seducing Leigh was just an act? Can you tell me?

Ow! I didn’t realize you were still here. Oh! I’ll come back. No, no, no, no, no! Don’t rush off on my account. Kristen. Is that really necessary? Do you really think that I’m going to cut you out of your share of the money? You see, nephew, I go by actions, not words. And it’s, uh, pretty obvious. What your intent is.

Fine.

I get it. You’re angry. But you’re also bluffing. Are

you sure about that?

So you’re leaving today? Yeah. I wish I didn’t have to. You know, especially with everything going on. But, uh, Like I told Alex, it’s already way overdue as it is. Yeah, I understand. Sonny, it meant so much to me that you came for the service. Uncle Vic, huh? I love them a lot. And vice versa.

Alex, uh, how is he? How is he? Uh, pretty much how you’d expect. I mean, this is not gonna be easy on him. It’s not gonna be easy on any of us. Yeah, yeah. But, I’m really glad you’re back where you belong, alright? When I got the call, I nearly jumped for joy. Yeah. Losing Victor has been difficult. As has this fallout.

It’s just unending. But, damn. It was so fun kicking Vivian to the curb.

I really wish I could have seen it. Of course, of course, but, you know, she’s, uh, just, uh, she’s gonna keep moving on to some new scheme. And God help whoever’s targeted next.

Hello, Alex. Look, I’m really busy right now. Oh, I’m sure you have time to talk about your brilliant future. Actually, I don’t. What? Listen, now the whole world knows that you are Victor’s son and heir. We can gang up against Maggie and take over the whole company. Yeah, I don’t have any beef against Maggie.

What? She threw you out on your ass at Titan. Return the favor. Have some guts. You want me to show you some guts? Yes. Alright. What? What are you doing? Alex, I’m, I’m trying to talk to you. You’re so rude.

So glad I made you jealous. Yeah, well, I guess I felt that I had something to prove in the remote chance that you were not joking about seducing Lee. And you proved it so well. Now, listen, Lee is not our problem right now. Dimitri is our problem. So why don’t we go downstairs and see his cheating ass before Glenn finds out what he’s doing with Leo.

Or else things are going to go kablooey. Really? Gwenny,

what are you doing here? I thought you had errands. Yes, well, I finished early, see, but I did happen to pass Sweet Bits. And I saw this. It’s in the window, it’s banana cream pie, it’s your favorite. Gwenny, you truly are the greatest friend a girl could ever…

Do

I really need to do this? I have no intention of cheating you, auntie. As you know, I’ve only received the first installment check, but as soon as I get the second one, you will be swimming in cash. I already should be Threatening to tell Gwen about you and Leo. I mean, that didn’t put a fire under your feet.

So guess what? Maybe this will. You talk a good game, Kristen. But of all the horrible things that you have done in your life, you have never actually killed anyone. Not that I know of. Not personally, anyway. And I really don’t think you’re going to start today. Are you?

For some measly money? Aren’t you?

Are you?

Can you? Yeah, Leuschner.

Hey,

you are. Oh, yeah, I was just looking for you two. Oh, a lively story. Now, do you have what we want? Yes. Yes,

I

believe I do. So

good to be home.

You know, it’s so lonely here and empty without you.

Oh, darling. I miss you so much

Listen now the whole world knows that you are Victor’s son and heir We can gang up against Maggie and take over the whole company. Yeah, I don’t have any beef against Maggie What? She threw you out on your ass at Titan. Return the favor. Have some guts.

What in the name of Michael B. Jordan was that about? For sleeping with my husband, you bastard!

You can’t be serious. Try me. You know, it’s funny. Just a little while ago, I was about to hand over the shares to you. But then I got to thinking. And knowing you two brifters, it wouldn’t end here. No, no, you would hold what I did to Gwen over my head for as long as you can profit from it. So really, the best thing that I can do right now is nip this in the butt.

Now, Leo did say that I shouldn’t be going to these extremes, but I’m just gonna have to figure out how to make him understand. We have plenty, don’t, please. Nice try. Listen, if it makes you feel any better, you two are going to make absolutely beautiful corpses. What?

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Madam Mayor, DHS. What a surprise. That’s good job. You’re working late. I need to talk with you. Well, I’m actually glad you stopped in. I haven’t had a chance to congratulate you personally since your appointment as mayor. I got your email. I want you to know how happy I am to be working for you. I think you were an inspired choice to fill your husband’s position.

And I want you to know that I am your humble. Are you done? I guess so. Good. Cause you’re fired.

Hey. I

thought you were the man from Foo Walks In. I’m sorry to disappoint. I ordered some dim sum. It should be here any minute. Are you going somewhere? Yeah, here. Here? We’re still moving in together, right?

There you are. Sorry I’m late. I assume I missed dinner. Yes, you did. But, Cook is keeping a plate warm for you. Oh, lovely. But, I could use a drink first. Tough day? Tedious. I was sorting through resumes. What position? Head of IT. What about Wendy Shin? Oh, I fired her. What? Why? You were there the day that she stopped by with that report she wanted me to read.

Yeah, I remember. Well, I caught her trying to get the goods on me. Get the goods on you? What do you mean? Why would she do that? To prove that I hired a hit on Eva Vitale.

Susan was really married to a guy named Edmund Phineas Crumb, huh? Looks like it. Look, I’m, uh, I’m new to this whole, uh, supernatural thing, okay, but, but the crumbs did come off the scone into the shape of a knee, and it’s pointing right at this guy right here. Crumb. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Listen. You know that I am desperate for anything to get EJ off of my back, but come on, how’s that gonna help us?

Huh? That article is from way, way back when. I mean, even if this crumb is still alive and around. What does he have to do with Susan escaping an exploding car back in Salem? I don’t know, but it’s worth looking into. Yeah, I guess. I guess, since he definitely has a connection to her. But is he gonna be able to tell us whether she’s alive or dead?

Oh

no! Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

You’re firing me? Damn right I am. See? See, I’m sure you’re aware, D. A. is not an elected position. Now, you serve at the pleasure of the Queen, and she is not a muse. But, Mayor Price, I mean, regardless of your personal feelings about me, you know how much, how hard I’ve worked for this town. I have devoted myself completely to my job.

It is my life! This is not about job performance, Miss Trask. I just don’t like you, and why the hell should I? Considering all the time that you’ve spent being Sloane Peterson’s errand girl, making life miserable for my daughter and me for weeks, arresting Chanel and me at my husband’s election day celebration.

Shirley, you can understand that at the time I felt that It’s what I needed to do. A Sloan presented me with what I believed was evidence of your guilt. Oh, well, you had the choice of how and when to make that damn arrest. Okay, look, I know you and Mr. Carver were very upset. Upset?! We were horrified and mortified, but you, you were having yourself a rip roaring time, weren’t you?

That night was fun for you! Look, I I may have acted a bit overzealous and and hasty, but I A BIT?! But that is exactly how you are reacting right now! Overzealous and hasty in your decision to let me go. And and and I’m telling you, it is a mistake, Mayor Price. It’s to to get rid of me when I have something I can offer you.

Something you can offer me? And what exactly is that? A high profile conviction. Now I’m sure you are aware of your precarious position right now as mayor. And your husband’s intervention may have put you in this office, but you are going to have to run on your own merits in a short amount of time. Now, we both know that Clint Rawlings is gunning for your job.

And I don’t have to tell you that he’s going to campaign on any of your perceived missteps. Now, I am sure that you don’t want to risk giving him that kind of ammunition, huh?

I guess closing a high profile case… Wouldn’t be the worst idea. Who’s conviction do you have in mind? I

mean, you know I want you to move in, I just… I didn’t think it’d be tonight. Didn’t really give me any notice. Sorry about that, it’s just… You know, it just hit me that I need to give my dad a few extra days to find a new tenant before the end of the month. And I got to packing and, you know, loading the car and…

No, it’s just, it’s okay. You don’t have to explain. Really, just… What? Honestly? Yeah. I just didn’t expect a former priest to be so eager to live in sin. Well, considering that I was, um, kicked out of the priesthood for performing an exorcism cohabitating as small potatoes. That’s a good point. Yeah, besides, we won’t be living in sin for very long.

We are engaged to be married. My wife to be. Oh, yes, we are. Question is, for how long? When are we tying the knot? Has been to be.

Wait, so Wendy figured out that you sent that hip woman after Ava? But how? Trip Johnson must have put the idea in your head. He and Wendy are an item now. And that young man seems to adore his gangster mother. He must have convinced Wendy to do his dirty work. By getting the goods on you. Right, so she had the temerity to try and hack into my phone, which I caught her doing.

Grounds for dismissal, don’t you think? Absolutely. But she didn’t, she didn’t get anything on you, did she? I was way ahead of her. I purposely left my phone behind so I could catch her in the act, which I did, and then I gave her the sack, told her to clear out her desk and leave immediately. Yeah, come to think of it.

Hmm, what is it? I should have had security escort her out, because God only knows what else she could have gotten into while she was walking through the building, but I was, I was distracted by something she said. Okay, what did she say? She said that my mother was still alive.

What is taking so long? How many Edmund P. Crumbs can there be in London? Uh, there’s none, so far. Not a single one? No, because this internet is so dang slow. Okay. Harris, even if Susan was married to this guy, what’s to say they have any connection now? I don’t know. Maybe she was desperate and went to him for help.

All the way here in London? Ava, this guy is our only lead. We need to track him down. Finally. What? I got a hit. Yeah? There is one Edmund Crumb in London. And his address is right here. Great. Let’s get that phone back to the waiter and then get out of here. Okay. Lee Shin.

I’d say that’s a pretty big fish, wouldn’t you? Depends what you’ve got on him. Well, uh, Mayor Price, I’m sure you’re aware, he tried to have Stefan DiMera killed, and yet, he is still walking around free. Because there wasn’t enough evidence to convict him. But there will be, very soon. You see, I’ve been working on him.

And once he’s lulled into a false sense of security, It’s just a matter of time before he confesses. And, uh, well, uh, how exactly are you working on him? Oh, you know, never mind. Never mind. I can get it. Please don’t look at me like that. Surely you’ve used your feminine wiles on occasion to get what you want.

Just, you know, but let’s just stay on topic, okay, Ms. Drafts? Now, just how long is it going to take before this, this unsuspecting fool is lulled to a fare thee well and confesses to his crime? Actually, I, I’m having dinner with him tonight in the square. Tonight? Tonight. And, oh, he is, is ready to crack. And when he does, I promise you, I am going to nail Lee Shin to the wall.

But if you’re, if you’re playing him, how do you know that this confession will stick? I’ve read the law. I know what I’m doing. Uh huh. Yeah, well, you better. Otherwise, you’re out.

Hey, Lee? It’s me, Melinda. Would you like to have dinner with me tonight?

I’m sorry, I just haven’t really given much thought to when or where. Wait, what are you thinking? Uh, well, I’m definitely not having the wedding at the pub, because I will not be married in a place that smells like chowder. My brother and his new wife didn’t have a problem. What does that mean? Rex and Sarah got married there today.

What? And your fiancé wasn’t invited? I wasn’t either. You’re kidding. Are you and your brother on the outs? No, Rex and I are good. It’s just… It’s just that Sarah and I have a history. Oh. One of your exes. Something like that. Listen, you… You don’t have to worry. I won’t insist on us getting married at the pub.

Alright? Because I don’t want to either. And why is that?

Well, because I’ve already… Had a wedding there? Let me guess, uh, Nicole? Yeah, with Nicole.

Wait, so Wendy just blurted out that your mother’s still alive? Of all the Hail Mary passes she could have thrown to keep her job, I never saw that one coming. Well, she couldn’t have just come up with that idea on the spot, so why would she say that? Where would she have gotten that from? If I were to hazard a guess, I would say she got it from Ava.

But Ava was in the car with Susan, so she knows what happened. Apparently, she now claims that she suddenly remembered that my mother stumbled clear of the car before it exploded. Ava has stated unequivocally that my mother didn’t die that night. Well, I’m… That’s amazing news, right? Mm. It would be if it were true.

You don’t believe it? Uh, for a minute. Ava obviously came up with that lie in a desperate attempt to save her own skin.

So, uh, this is it, huh? Yeah. Room 17, according to the search results. This is Edmund Crumb’s current address. Okay, well, uh, here goes nothing.

At his age, I doubt that he’s out clubbing. He’s probably asleep, so… Should we get another? Yeah. We got another job. Why are you ringing the bell in the middle of the bloody night? Um, sir, we are sorry to disturb you. Yeah, and we wouldn’t have, except this is quite urgent. Um, are you Edmund Crum? Yes, Edmund P.

Crum, that’s me. How may I help you? Well, we certainly hope you can help us. Yeah, we were hoping to talk to you about a woman named… Susan Banks.

Hey. Ooh. You read my mind. I think I’ve gotten to know you quite well. Cheers.

Uh, I, uh, hope I didn’t keep you waiting too long. Oh, just long enough for me to order us both drinks. I have to admit I was, uh, kind of surprised to get your call. What’s the occasion? Does there have to be an occasion? I’ve missed you. You’ve been on my mind.

A lot. Oh,

really? Really. I keep thinking back on all the good times that we’ve had together. How no one has ever turned me on the way you do. Ever made me feel so, um, alive. And not just sexually. I, I, well, I love hanging out with you and I don’t want to jinx anything, but I guess I’m just trying to tell you how happy I am that we’re seeing each other.

And this is where you say you are too.

Actually, um, I was thinking we should call the whole thing off. What? Why? I thought everything was going so well. Yeah, I thought it was too. And then, I heard this. I am going to nail Li Xin to the wall.

Kate? Hi. Hey. Just looking at a picture of baby Victoria. Rick sent me a few photos before we knew the truth.

I’m so sorry. I know how much you and Romano were looking forward to a new grandbaby. We, we really were looking forward to it. For the extent of the deception. Anyway, did you come by for some chatter? Oh no. I was on my way home. I just thought I’d stop and check on Eric. Is he around? Oh, uh, I don’t, he must not have told you he’s, uh, well, he doesn’t live here anymore.

He moved out. Oh.

That’s right. I forgot you and Nicole had gotten married at the pub. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought it up. No, it’s okay. You were just explaining to me why you thought you and I shouldn’t get married at the pub and now I understand. Yeah. Yeah. And aside from my aversion to the smell of clam chowder, I sure as hell am not going to get married anywhere where you have already gotten married.

So. I didn’t think so. But wherever we do decide to do our numbskulls, we probably should not wait too long because, you know, adoption agencies are going to prefer married couples. Right. Yeah. We shouldn’t wait too long. So, is Belle willing to represent us in the adoption? Actually, I don’t think that’s going to be such a good idea.

Yes, I heard the news about Dear Susan. Such a senseless tragedy. They said on the telly that some deranged woman drove off the side of a cliff. Actually, that woman, uh, she was, she was mentally ill. Huh. Regardless of her state of mind, she cost the world a beautiful and gentle soul. Actually, um, that’s the reason we’re here.

We believe that may not be true. Not true. What are you saying? We believe that Susan may have actually gotten out of the car. And, uh, she might be alive. Whatever would give you that idea? Well, um, we think that because the woman who drove Susan off the cliff is now saying that she saw Susan get away before the explosion.

I must admit, Wendy using my mother’s supposed return from the dead as a way to mollify me, it makes a certain amount of sense, but to Ava it’s a no brainer. So you think Ava just made it up to get you to back off? Well, isn’t it obvious? Ava must have found out there was a contract out on her, and suddenly remembers that my mother survived the explosion.

The timing is rather convenient. Yeah. But, don’t you think maybe there’s a chance Ava could be telling the truth? She’s not. How could you be so sure? I am sure because if my mother was still alive, she would have made sure I knew that. Unless… Unless what? Unless your mother was so afraid of Ava that she went into hiding.

Not able to get to a phone, not able to get to you. EJ, what if your mother is still in danger? Can’t you even consider the fact that Ava is telling the truth? Nicole, this is my mother we’re talking about here. She doesn’t require something so mundane as a phone. I mean, she’s on a first name basis with everyone in the spirit world.

Look, if my mother was still alive, she would have found some way to send me a sign.

Hmm. Huh. You were saying?

Where did you get that recording? Remember last week when I showed up at your office? Yeah, and you said you couldn’t wait to get your hands on me and we had sex on my desk? Yeah, I remember. Hmm, yeah, well, I also gave you a cute little teddy bear. Told you he’d tickle you when I was away. No. Yes. There was a bug inside that thing?

Are you tickled now? Shhh. Dammit, how could I be so stupid? You know, I actually asked myself the same question. I was kind of surprised I got away with it. Why’d you do it? What tipped you off? I didn’t need any tipping off. I knew from the beginning you were out to get me. Although I thought I could sweep you off your feet with mine.

Reika’s charm and, um, sexual prowess. But on the off chance I was wrong, I took out a low insurance policy. I can’t believe you played me like this. Amanda, give it up. We played each other. You don’t care about me any more than I care about you. The only reason you’re upset is because you lost. It’s

me, isn’t it? I’m the reason she won’t represent us. She still can’t stand me. No, Song, it’s not that. It’s just… Oh, she’s going through a really hard time in her personal life. And I just think it’s best for all three of us if we… You know, just found another attorney. Okay. Yeah, well… I mean, even if family law were my specialty, you know, I obviously can’t do this by myself.

Of course not. Look, it can’t be that difficult to find an attorney that we both like. I mean, you know what, we can even start working on it tonight if you like. Tonight? Yeah, or we can just make a potential list of lawyers. I mean, yeah, we could, but you just, you haven’t even unpacked yet. Sure. It’s just that I’m excited, I mean, knowing that we both want to adopt and I just can’t wait to get started.

What? What’s up with that look? Oh, it’s just, I was thinking how this was all my idea and, Eric, are you sure this is really what you want? Definitely. I’m sorry, I thought I made this clear to you, Sloan. A child doesn’t need to share my DNA to feel like my own child. And I’m sure you feel the same way, of course you do.

I mean, this was your idea, like you said. Yeah. You know, there’s a kid out there who desperately needs a mom and a dad. And we can be those two people. I mean, like I said, I’ve just always wanted to be a father.

There we go. I’ll dine by a candlelight tonight, that’s better.

That’s it? That’s all you have to say? Well, I know you’ve already eaten, but I thought you wouldn’t mind keeping me company. Hey Jay, this isn’t about dinner. You said if your mom was alive, she would show you a sign and then bam, the lights go out. Oh, come on. What? Come on, if that’s not a sign, okay, then what could it be?

Uh, a faulty circuit breaker, a minor inconvenience. You are her son. You have seen what Susan can do. I have, and she’s not subtle. A sign from her would be a… Sky writer, spelling… Elvis, I’m alive. Or a Ouija board pointing to yes. Well, you’d actually have to get a Ouija board out in order for that to work.

Fine, fine. Then it would be the morning crossword clues being King of Rock and Heywood actress in I Want to Live. But the power going out… No, Nicole, that is not a sign from my mother. It’s… It’s just the power going out. Okay. If you say

so. So, this woman… That caused the crash. It’s saying that she saw my Susan escape before the cars burst into flames. Yes. But didn’t you say this woman was mentally ill? How do we know this is not the ramblings of some deranged person? Well, I, I know this woman and she’s had a lot of treatments. Yes, and, and she recently remembered.

I’ve seen Susan get out of the car just in time. Well, it’s my understanding that this accident happened months ago. And if Susan’s alive, if, where has she been all this time? That’s what we’re trying to find out. Yeah, that’s why we’re here to see you. You think I might have some knowledge of Susan’s whereabouts?

Whatever would give you that idea?

Well, um, recently, it’s, it’s, well, it’s kind of a long story, but we, we feel like Susan’s been trying to reach out to us. It’s what actually brought us to London in the first place. And then today we got another clue, um, that was sort of… Crumb related. Yeah, I, look, we did some research and we, uh, discovered that you’d been married to Susan.

Uh, that’s… Really why we’re here. Uh, to see if maybe you have gotten any signs from her at all. Signs? Yeah, I’m sure you remember Susan had some supernatural gifts. And, uh, we were just wondering if maybe you got a, uh, a message? Anything? Messages? No. But then again,

Why would she need to send me messages? When she’s chained up to the floor of the back bedroom.

Hey there.

How’d your dinner go? Not how I planned. Oh. I figured.

Back up to your office. You’re out.

Almost unpacked, and I left you enough hangar space. Oh, that’s great. Something wrong? Oh, Melinda just texted. She got some bad news tonight. I’m sorry to hear that. Yeah, me too. You

two are friends now? Because it wasn’t too long ago that you weren’t. I mean, our rivalry, we tried to leave to the courtroom, and… Plus, since I got to town, I’ve found that female friends are pretty hard to come by, so. Would you mind if I went and checked on her? No, of course not. And I promise I won’t touch the leftover dumplings.

That’s not what I was gonna say.

I’m just really excited about the baby, too. About the adoption process

and… I love you too. I’ll see you soon. Okay.

Um, if there really is a power outage, maybe you should save your battery. This can’t wait. Mirror Enterprises desperately needs an IT department head. By tomorrow? By yesterday, but I’m sure the power will come back on soon. I, I don’t understand. How, how are you being so calm about this? Why get worked up?

There’s nothing we can do until the power company repairs the damage. Oh. Still going to go with the power outage theory, huh? Oh, as opposed to your completely logical hypothesis that it was caused by my deceased mother who might be alive because Wendy Shin said so. No, I’m sure that the lights will come back on any second.

As much as I hate saying I told you so, I told you so. Oh, very mature. See?

You, you, you were just joking. Oh no, Susan’s right in there. I mean, why would you, why would you ever change?

I’m feeling, I’m feeling dizzy.

Me too, hello. What, what, what, what the hell is wrong with me? That would be the poisoned tea.

Poisoned tea? What? Oh, no, no. Oh, no, no. Oh, God.

He passed you?

That takes care of that.

Hey, Lee. You there? I just want to let you know something. You know, I finally figured out why Gabby Hernandez dumped you. It’s because as a lover, you suck! And I don’t mean that in a good way.

Ask

how you’re doing, but I got a pretty good idea. Coffee? I can’t believe we dumped him. Damn! Damn! Damn! I hate that creep! God, did he give you a reason? Yeah, a good one, actually. I found out I was only dating him because I wanted to make a case against him. Yeah, I mean, that’s kind of a good one. Yeah, and because I failed to make said case, Mayor Price just fired me.

What? Why? Because she hates me. And because it is entirely in the authority of her as mayor.

What are you thinking? Oh, it’s just that, um… This kind of works out for me. Well, as long as you’re happy. No, it works out for you too. How so? Well, I mean, you’re in need of a job, and I’m in need of an attorney. No, I’m serious. How would you like to help Eric and I adopt a baby?

Mom! Hey! Hi! Thank you. So, so this is your new home? It is. How’d you know where to find me? Well, I stopped by the pub to see you and Kate said that you had moved in here. Yeah, I did. I’m, I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you myself that I was moving in. It’s just, I got so busy and… He was quite all right. I understand.

I was just, well, I was surprised, I guess. I know that you and Sloane were serious. I didn’t know that you were this serious. Yeah, we are. And we love each other, and we’re compatible. And it just seemed like the logical next step for us. Well, you know that I’m happy if you’re happy. I am. And you know as well as I know that I’ve gone through a really rough patch recently.

But I think I’ve made the turn around the corner, you know? And Slo and I, you know, committed to each other and I… I think that I’m ready. You know.

I hope it works. Yeah. Me too.

Yes. Yes, thank you very much. That, that explains it. A car ran into a utility pole and knocked out the power in the area. The uh, electric company just… Finished repairing the damage. So, I think you would agree that the only sign here is that the drivers in this neighborhood need to keep their eyes on the road.

Okay, this neighborhood is made up of this mansion and the acres of grounds around it. You think the dorkers at the power company were having me on?

The only liar in this scenario… is Ava Vitaly. And may she soon rot in hell for all eternity, so that my mother may finally rest in peace.

Hey, what do you mean? What the heck do you think you’re doing?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Man, I’ve got to be home. Hey. That was the longest shift ever.

What, no kiss? Sorry. What are you so focused on? Uh, trying to find a new job since EJ Jamera fired me. That’s right. I’m, Wendy, again, I’m, I’m so sorry about that. Why? You’re not the one who got caught hacking into his phone. And, as we discussed, you told me to stay out of it. But I wouldn’t listen. I know, I know, but you were just trying to help me.

Which I obviously didn’t succeed at. Never did find proof that EJ put a hit out on your mom. And now Ava and Harris are on the run. Yeah, thanks to me, the police are hot on their trail.

This is it. Yeah. The guy at the front desk has a good pair of eyes. He seemed pretty definite that the two people staying in this room matched the description we gave him. He was kind enough to give us this. Why don’t you explain to him that we’re working with Scotland Yard and the ISA. Alright, so we’re about to pay a surprise visit to Eva and Michael’s.

Freeze! Police!

Phillip, hi. Hey. Hey, come in. Uh, yeah, um, sure, but, uh, what are you doing here? Isn’t your brother getting married today? Uh, uh, yeah, he was, but… Let me guess. Xander crashed the wedding. He sure did.

Well, what do you have to say for yourself? Okay. You know what, I actually don’t care anymore what you have to say. You kept me from my daughter long enough, I’m just gonna go back in there and tell you No, wait, you can’t! You’ve watched me.

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

No, no, no, Xander, wait, wait, wait. You said you wanted to talk. Let’s talk. Fine. You can start by explaining how you could pass off my child as Rex Brady’s. What kind of person are you, Sarah? Wait! Hang on, you and I did the exact same thing to Eric, and I don’t remember you having a problem with it then. No.

No, that was different. How? You told Eric that I was Mackenzie’s father because you didn’t want to complicate things between him and Nicole. You lied to me about Victoria out of sheer spite. No, that is not true. Yes, it is true. You kept my child’s paternity a secret, just to punish me. I did it to prevent an innocent child from being raised by a killer.

All clear. Well, if there was any indication on who those two people were.

William Thacker and Anna Scott. A. K. A. Harris Michaels and Ava Vitale. At least we know they’re still in the country. Yeah, but where are they now?

Well, luckily this place is open so late. Uh, yeah, uh, what are we doing here? Hmm? I mean, why are we here? What if we get recognized? By, let’s say, the cops or maybe one of EJ’s goons. He comes and tries to take me out. Try to relax. I mean, can I pour you some more tea?

Last night you said you trusted me. Yeah. I do. Okay. I just would feel better if we weren’t so exposed. I promise we’re fine. And sitting in that hotel room was not getting us any closer to finding Susan. What if Susan isn’t even in London? I mean, hell, what if she’s not even alive? We already talked about this.

The visions and the signs say she is. That could all be in my head. They could all be figments of my imagination. Right? I mean, hell, I mean, it could be Susan’s ghost tormenting me from beyond the grave. Yeah, but the visions aren’t the only thing that brought us here. Dr. Evans hypnotized you. You said you saw Susan stepping out of the car before it exploded.

You’re the one who told me that Susan has certain powers. Mmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, uh, apparently… Said Powers helped your friend Marlena

battle Satan. Well, if she can channel Powers to bring us to London. That’d be child’s play, right? Yeah, I suppose. But, if that is true,

if she waiting for? Why hasn’t she sent us another sign?

Still, I don’t understand why you’re here. Given what just went down at the pub, I figured you’d be upset. So I had to come see you. You okay? No, but I will be. Look, I know you’re the one who told Xander he’s Victoria’s father. He said you knew because you overheard me and Rex talking. Yeah, I overheard you guys.

Crossing through the square and I probably should have kept walking, but I didn’t and I’m sorry. Hey. Hey, I wasn’t Calling you out I’m a secret like that. It’s bound to eventually come out anyway This is Salem after all That is true I just hope Rex and Sarah are as understanding as you are. Though, why would they be?

I mean, obviously Sarah didn’t want anyone to know about this, but something this big, I just couldn’t keep it from Sandra. I felt like he had the right to know. I get it, Chloe. I do. But still, I feel awful that he ruined their wedding. He didn’t. They’d already tied the knot by the time he showed up. Oh, so, Rex and Sarah are married.

But you and Xander obviously didn’t make it to New York. Oh, you knew about that? Yeah, he mentioned it at the pub. Okay, well, actually right before you got here I was talking to my mom on the phone and telling her that the wedding is off. She’d already bought it dressed. My final sale, she can’t return it.

Why should she have to? Chloe, there’s no reason you and Xander can’t still get married. Actually, there is.

You have no idea how much I hated myself over what happened with Susan. What happened to Susan?

You can’t even bring yourself to say it, can you? She went off of a cliff. She died in a horrible explosion because of you. No, Ava Vitale killed Susan after I let her go. No, she may have been driving the car. But Ava would have never gotten her hands on Susan in the first place if you hadn’t kidnapped her.

So we’re back to all this? You mean how you’re directly tied to a murder? You are damn right we are back to that. That’s just your interpretation of events. Those are not the facts, Sarah. Do you want the facts,

Xander? Here are the facts. That despite all of the years of pain and suffering that you have caused me, And pretty much everyone I know. I continued to buy your bull about being changed.

But after you, you signed on with Ava, you, you kidnapped Bonnie. And you teamed up with Gwen. Yet again. You got Susan killed.

Santa, I couldn’t stay married to you. I, I couldn’t be around you.

And I certainly wasn’t going to let… My child grew up around your toxic influence, so I did what I thought I needed to do to keep her safe. Right. So once again, Sarah Houghton played God. But not just with my life, but with my daughter’s. Because Sarah Houghton never makes a mistake. She never makes a wrong choice or a regrettable call of any kind.

Sarah Orton knows what’s best for everyone. God, it must be so nice to be so damn perfect.

How are you holding up? Stupid question. I knew you weren’t sick about it. Worried, guilt ridden. She was counting on me and that made everything worse. Tripp, you can’t blame yourself. Okay, Rafe had an eyewitness who saw Ava and Harris behind our building. I’m sure he threatened to charge you if you didn’t tell him where they were.

Yeah, he did threaten me. See? You had no choice.

I can’t believe Rafe tried to go after you for protecting your own mother. Did he say he was going to arrest you? Not exactly. Oh. Well then, how did he get You to tell him that Ava and Harris went to London. Doesn’t matter.

Wait, he didn’t get physical with you, did he? No, no, nothing like that. Okay, can we just drop it? If he didn’t. Okay, now please, just let it go. Tripp, come on. I risked my career for this. And yes, that was my choice. But I’m guessing it wasn’t your choice to send the cops after your mother, so I want to know how Rafe got you to talk.

Okay, fine. It was you. Okay? Me? Rafe said that if I didn’t give up my mom and Harris, he’d go after you.

You want a bite? It’s the last one. I am not hungry. Are you sure? I mean, they’re good.

Explain this to me, would ya? Um, first, Susan, she won’t leave me alone. Won’t stop hounding me about telling the truth, and um, keeps giving me these cryptic clues about London. So we come here, we come all the way over here, and suddenly she clams up. Why? Well, I don’t, I don’t know. I’m not an expert in this kind of thing.

But maybe she just wants us to be patient. Why would she want that? Huh? Suddenly she’s the coy clairvoyant? Maybe. Or maybe she’s just screwing with me. She doesn’t really want to be found. Hey! Suzie Q! Are you there? We’re here, and um… Why don’t you give us another damn sign, would ya?

Yeah, there you go. Ava, look. What?

This.

Maybe I did play God. But I had to protect my daughter. She was not in any danger! Oh, because you went legit?

How many times have I heard that? How many times did you swear to me that your life of crime was over and that you were going straight? That you wanted to be a better man for me? I didn’t want that! Then why did you say yes to Ava? Because I was desperate! We were flat broke, remember? No! No, we weren’t. I was working part time at the hospital.

We were living at the mansion so that we could save. Yeah, but Victor reminded me every five seconds what a freeloader I was. You could have swallowed your pride for, for a few months. But instead you, you moved us into a roach motel and said that you were going to get a job. A respectable, high paying, and honest job.

I was going to work at the Spectator, but Jack, he, he couldn’t hire me. Because of Gwen! And then you teamed up with her to blackmail the paper away from him and Jennifer! I

tried. did

you pound the pavement? Did you? Work the phones because that, that is what people do when they are looking for a job, Xander. They don’t just get one rejection and then take to kidnapping. That is so easy for you to say. What does that mean? Pound the pavement and go where, exactly? Work the phones and call who?

Everyone in this town hates me! I was, I was drowning in debt. I had creditors breathing down my neck. I don’t, I don’t have a rich mummy offering me handouts, Sarah. Do not do that. My mother loves you like a son to this day. She wanted to help both of us. You’re right. Maggie’s an angel, but the money she was trying to give us, it came from Uncle Vic.

Who cares? I care! He took every opportunity to belittle me, and he refused to apologize. I wasn’t going to take a dime off of him! You’re very happy to take a cut of Ava’s ransom money. Not a day goes by that I don’t regret my role in Susan’s death. I made the choice that I made because… The thought of disappointing you again, Sarah, the…

The idea of failing you as a husband, as a man… It was more than I could bear. So I did what I thought I had to do.

So did I,

when I chose to make Rex the father of my baby instead of you.

I get that your new husband sharing a kid with his ex wife complicates things. But, Chloe, you and Xander can still be happy if you’re co parenting with Sarah and Rex. Tons of blended families make it work. Xander and I aren’t going to be a family or anything else. What makes you say that? Because I asked him point blank if he thought we could still get married when he found out the truth about Victoria.

And of course he tried convincing me that nothing was going to change, but we both know damn well that it, it will. It changes everything and that’s why I told him to go to the pub. I see. I’m sorry, Chloe. I know you really cared about him.

You know, people were really shocked when they found out that we fell for each other. Us included, but you know what? What we had, it was real. It was. With that being said, all the times Xander tried to assure me that he was over Sarah, I knew that he wasn’t. I knew that he had all these unresolved feelings for her.

I guess you would know something about that.

Just how much of my conversation with Rex did you overhear?

Chloe, answer me, please. Okay, I heard enough to know that you might still be in love with me.

Rafe threatened to go after me. He figured out that you were the one who doctored those passports for my mom and Harris. And he said that if I didn’t tell him what I knew, he would send in Trask. Oh my God. You made you choose between your mother and me. And you chose me? Why? Why would you do that? Isn’t it obvious?

Because I’m in love with

you. I gotta admit, Wendy Shin has skills. These look real. Yeah. Real enough to get them out of the country. Well, if they’re gonna want to go anywhere else, they’re gonna need these. Yep. Which means they’ll be back for them eventually. And we’ll be here waiting

for them. You don’t see that. See what? A plate of crumbs? Uh, no. It’s a letter E. So it’s not an S? No, it’s definitely an E. As in exactly what you wanted. You just asked Susan for a sign and here it is. Oh. You think that Susan is talking to us through a pastry? Why not? Because it’s bonkers. It’s possible.

Okay. So, um, Lady Woo Woo arranged these crumbs in the shape of a letter E. What does it mean?

Okay, so, so far Susan’s signs have been big smoke, which meant London, and now we have the letter E. So now we’re seeing messages and food? I think that’s our cue to head back to the wing. No, no, this is good. This is progress. Oh. Okay. Tell me what it means. Don’t know yet. I do. It means nothing. What, what, you’ve given up?

I thought, I thought you were, I thought you were tougher than that. Oh, I’m tough. I’m also smart enough to know that I’m not gonna waste my time on something that is obviously hopeless. Obviously hopeless? Come on, all we gotta do is figure out a way to connect the letter E to Susan Banks. It’s a piece of cake.

Or scone, in this

case. You’re really enjoying yourself, aren’t you? What can I say? I enjoy solving a good puzzle. Especially with a friend. Oh, we’re friends now, huh? Yeah, I’d say so. What about you?

Yeah, I’d say so.

You know, we should probably work on this bag of the hotel. Yeah, it would suck to get busted. Especially since we’re one step closer to finding Susan.

Alright. Talk to the guy at the front desk. He’s going to keep an eye out for Ava and Michaels. As soon as they get here, he’s going to call me. Okay. So what do we do? We just sit here?

Well, not much else we can do. Alright, well we tracked them to this hotel by using the surveillance footage from the taxi stand over at the airport. Can’t we just pull that surveillance footage from the taxi stand downstairs? I already did that. Nothing on it. So, they must have gone out the back or on foot.

Gone where? And why London? What are they even doing here? We should know. But you do know Ava. I mean, you were involved with her. Gosh. Why would she pick this location of all places? London’s a big city. Easy to get lost in. Yeah, but the U. K. has an extradition treaty with the U. S. And a former mob princess and a Navy SEAL wouldn’t know that.

Yeah. So, why wouldn’t they just go off the grid? Maybe it’s not about running from something, but trying to do something. So you think there’s a specific reason why they chose here? Did Tripp say anything that would suggest that? He was pretty tight lipped. I’m not that I blame him, I mean, I was trying to get him to grass up his girlfriend.

Grass up? We haven’t been here a full day and you’re already using the lingo? Oh, you know you love it. Whatever. Mr. Sherlock Homeboy. Who are you calling? Leave it to Sherlock.

You left me? I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while now. I almost did the first night we made love, but… But what? I was afraid you wouldn’t say it back. Why? Experience.

You mean Allie.

Tripp. Just because you said I love you to her, she didn’t say it back, that doesn’t mean the same thing will happen with me. In fact, I can guarantee you it won’t. So you mean… I love you too, Tripp. I’m in love with you. Wow, I, I feel like we should shout from rooftops or something. I have a better idea.

Chloe, I never wanted you to know how I feel about you. Why not? As you may have overheard in the square, I didn’t want to get between you and Xander. Or mess up Rex’s relationship with Sarah. So, you were willing to sacrifice your own happiness for everyone else? You sacrificed yours by telling Xander the truth.

Besides, I don’t deserve to be happy after everything I did to you and Brady. Oh, come on, Philip. You were mentally ill and you got the help that you needed. You are not the same person anymore. Maybe not. But… I know there’s no way you could ever love me again.

I’m not so sure about that.

You really… You really think Rex would be a better father than me?

Of course I do.

He’s not a criminal, for one thing. No, he’s just a liar and a serial adulterer. Have you forgotten? He cheated on you with your own sister. You seem to have no problem giving him my child to raise.

Rex has changed. He has.

Unlike you. He learns from his mistakes and he regrets hurting people. I just told you that I regret my part in Susan’s death every day. What about the spectator? Do you regret stealing that? Because Jack was your best friend.

What about the money laundering and the diamond smuggling?

Do you regret shooting Brady? Or Marlena?

What about putting Nicole in a cage? Do you have any… pangs of regret for all the psychos that you have teamed up with over the years? Like Orpheus. And Clyde Weston.

You can list every sin I’ve ever committed. All the way down to my unpaid parking tickets, but… That doesn’t give you the right to disqualify me as a father. Sarah, come on. Whatever little you think of me now, you must know I would, I would never harm my own child. You do, you do know that, right?

Sarah? Do we need to go right out here?

Go back inside, Rex. This doesn’t concern you. No, it doesn’t. Sarah’s my wife. Oh, you say that like it means something. You know, she only married you to keep up this charade. She doesn’t love you. Shut your mouth. Got a nerve, did I? Keep talking, I’m gonna hit a whole bunch of your nerves. Of all the people Sarah could spend her life pretending to care about, I can’t believe she chose the wanker who knocked up his ex behind her back.

I don’t give a damn what you believe.

It doesn’t matter. Rex and I get acquainted with my daughter? It’s not happening.

It’s, it’s getting late. We don’t have to talk about this now. No, no, no, Phillip, wait. I, I, I want to talk about it. I need to talk about it. Okay. When I thought you were dead, I guess a part of me died right along with you. And I didn’t even realize it until you showed up a few weeks ago. Right here at my doorstep, alive.

And I felt a part of me. There’s a part of me that I used to love you with all my heart and I felt that part come back to life again. Chloe… And I was denying it, okay, because of our past and because I was with Xander, but I don’t want to do that anymore. I can’t pretend like that part of me doesn’t exist.

It has been there since I was 16 years old and it’s not going away. And in fact, the more time I… And with you, the stronger it gets.

Chloe. Are you saying you still have feelings for me?

Maybe we should take this into the bedroom?

Oh, really? It’s Rafe.

Yeah, you want? Oh, what’s with the attitude, man? You threatened my girlfriend. You expect me to be polite? Just tell me what you want. Okay, fair. I have an update on your mom. Her and Michael’s were taken into custody by Scotland Yard. Is she okay? I’m not gonna lie, man. Your mother’s in serious trouble. Can’t, can’t you do something?

Yeah, I wish I could, but that’s, uh, yeah, that’s way above my pay grade, man. I mean, them coming to another country was a big mistake. They didn’t just run for the hell of it, okay? They went to London to find Susan. What? Find Susan? What, Susan Banks? She’s dead. No, no, she isn’t. My mom remembered seeing her get out of the car before it exploded, okay?

She is sure of it. If this is some kind of a trick, man… It isn’t. I I I swear, okay? Dr. Evans hypnotized her and it all came back, okay? She believes that Susan is alive and somewhere in London. If she can prove that, that would help her case, right? Well, I’ll let you know when I find her. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

You said that she was in custody? I lied.

Can you pay the check? Yeah. Also borrowed the waiter’s phone. Who are you going to call? No one. I thought we would just search the internet for clues. Search the… Wait, where are you going to search and where are you going to begin? Well, I think, uh, I think we put in Susan Banks and the letter E. And we’ll go from there.

Don’t, don’t answer that. I don’t want you to say something that you’ll regret because you’re emotional. I know I’m being emotional, Philip, but this is not some knee jerk reaction to what happened with Xander. Like I said before, I’ve… I’ve had these feelings for you for a while now. I swear, I did not come here to discuss this.

I, I know that, I know that you would not take advantage of me during a vulnerable moment and use it to get what you want. That, that’s the old Phillip. I see how much you’ve changed.

I should go.

But so you know, I’m here for you, Chloe. I always will be.

You have no claim to Victoria. She’s my flesh and blood, Rex. My name is on the birth certificate. I’m married to her mother. So in the eyes of the law, Victoria is my child, not yours. Come on. A quick DNA test will fix all that. Should be back in my arms as soon as I get the results. You want to go down that road, you’re in for a long, ugly legal battle.

And what judge in their right mind would give custody to a convicted felon over two highly respected physicians? If you think that your pathetic little threats are going to make me back down, you’re sorely mistaken. I’m going to fight harder for Victoria than I’ve ever fought for anything in my life.

And mark my words, I will win. I’m going to be part of my daughter’s life. And there’s nothing either of you two can do to stop me!

What did Rafe want? That son of a bitch just tricked me into telling him that my mom and Michaels went to London to find Susan Banks. He lied and said that they’re in police custody. Oh, damn it! How could I be so stupid? Tripp, you’re not stupid. Once again, Rafe did something really messed up to get you to talk.

Yeah, well, it worked. And now he and Jada are probably closing in on my mom and Michael as we speak. Susan Banks is alive? I thought she died when Ava drove her off the cliff. They never found her remains. Well, the car exploded. I mean, would there be any remains? We just assumed that she was incinerated.

Now Tripp says that Ava remembers seeing Susan get out of the car right before it caught on fire. And Susan supposedly came here. That’s what Tripp said. I don’t know, Rafe. He sounds like a son desperate to get his mother off the hook. Maybe. But it is Salem. Dead people turning out not to be dead. Not all that unusual.

So, for argument’s sake, let’s say Susan Banks is alive. What brought her to London? Man, there’s a ton here on Susan, but nothing that links her to the letter key.

Try crumbs. What? Add crumbs to the search. Yeah, zero comes up. Yeah, just try it. It’s possible. Okay, okay. Susan Banks and… Crumbs. Here we go.

Holy cow. What? Oh, come on, you find something? Yeah, it’s a, it’s like a newspaper article from like 25 years ago. It looks like a wedding announcement. Read it. Susan Banks of Salem, USA ties the knot in merry old England to Edmund P.Crumb.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey.

Oh, so good to see a familiar face. Hey, Bonnie. Would you care to join me? I mean, I’ve just been sitting here by myself seething. And since misery loves company, I’m assuming you’re miserable too. Why, why would I be? Why would you be? Because I know you hate Vivian Alamein with a vengeance, too, and since she is claiming to be the once and final Mrs.

Victor Kiriakis. Oh, that. Right, that. And since she and Victor were never legally divorced, she now claims to be the sole heir to his estate. And what’s worse? She threw us all out of the house. Now Justin and I, we’re slumming in in an itsy bitsy, teeny weeny little room at the Salem Inn. Excuse me, but weren’t you locked in Statesville for years, Bonnie?

Which is exactly why it’s so, uh, God, what’s the word everybody’s using? Triggering! Triggering! Not to speak ill of the dead. Damn Victor for leaving us in this mess. Damn him for destroying his will. In fact, damn him for dying.

Oh my god. Why? I, I, I, I can’t believe that that’s the child that she’s talking about. The baby boy. Victor’s son. It’s… Alex. Yeah. Oh.

Geez, who died? Oh, I’m sorry. I, um, Besides Uncle Vic, I didn’t mean to say that. You know I love Uncle Vic, too. I didn’t mean to say that. I’m sorry. You know, it’s okay. It’s just that, um, We’ve been through a heroin series of, of, uh, revelations. And, and now… Um, No. What?

Why is nobody answering me? Why aren’t you looking at me? What the hell’s going on?

Okay, don’t worry about it, alright? All is forgiven now that I’ve met my sweet granddaughter. But your mother, that is a whole different story. She’s pretty ticked off of you. Yeah, I figured. Where’s mom anyway? Don’t tell me she’s trying to track me down. Uh, she’s not. She went to Titan to see Vivian. What? I don’t understand.

Why would she go see Vivian? Because Vivian offered me a job there. Which, of course, Mom was not too thrilled about. In fact, she’s on the warpath. Shot out of here like a rocket to confront her. Well, we need to get her back here. I don’t think that’d be a good idea. Get between your mother and Vivian. That fur is gonna fly before the dusk.

So, that may be true, but I’d hate to see the fur that’s going to fly when mom finds out she missed my wedding. That’s right. Sarah and I are getting married. Right now.

Xander, wait. I’m sorry, I can’t. I can’t do this. I can’t marry you. What? Why? Because of Sarah. Oh, Chloe, darling, come on. I’ve told you a million times. I’m completely over Sarah. That’s not what I meant. I meant… Sarah lied to you. Rex isn’t the father of her baby. You are.

I’m sorry, I must have missed her because it’s so much. No, no, you didn’t miss hear me. Sarah lied. Her little girl is your daughter.

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

Okay, uh, wait, um, you two are telling me that you want to get married right here right now. Um, yeah, if it’s okay with you. Well, yeah, I mean, it’s okay with me, but can you give me a second to take all this in? I mean, a while ago, I didn’t know this little one was born, and now you two are talking about tying the knot.

Well, actually, she’s the reason we want to tie the knot. Because ever since Victoria Margaret made her grand entrance into this world, we want everyone to know who her father is.

I love you talking about? Victoria can’t be mine. Sarah told me. The timing, it made it impossible. Sanders, she lied. How do you know? I just overheard Rex and Phillip talking about it. In the square, Rex was confiding in Philip and they were talking and said that Victoria is your daughter.

Believe me, I hate that Vivian thinks she has a legitimate claim to Victor’s estate. You think you hate it? Imagine how Maggie feels, being kicked out of her own house by that evil witch. I know, it’s, it’s all a farce and I, I just wish you had some recourse. Well, I don’t know anything about a recourse.

Except there is one last shred of hope to hold on to. What’s that? Brady and Alex brought back Victor’s briefcase from Greece. The ISA found it in the plane wreckage. Hopefully there’s something in it that can turn this whole thing around. So, this, uh, this briefcase hasn’t been opened yet? No, they thought Maggie should do the honors.

I’m just hoping whatever’s in there, it’s good news.

You opened Uncle Victor’s briefcase? Did you figure out why he went to Greece? Is that the letter, the one Constantine was talking about? Yes, it is. It is. Good, good. Well, there’s gotta be some answers in there, right? Did you figure out why Uncle Vic destroyed his will? Um, why don’t I let the two of you talk alone?

Why? It’s about Uncle Vic. Yes, but it concerns you too. I’m sorry.

What’s going on? Why is Auntie Maggie sorry? And what’s in the letter? I just… I don’t understand.

Why would Sarah tell me that Rex is the baby’s father? Why would she lie to me? Get out. I know the answer is because she hates me. She hates me for what I did to Susan. I think it’s a lot more complicated than that. No, it’s actually very simple, Chloe.

She thinks I’m a bad person. A lowlife, not worthy to be the father of our child. Oh my gosh, you would rather her daughter, our daughter, grow up believing a lie than know the truth that I’m her father. Her precious little girl is mine.

Hey sweetheart. Oh my god. Look at that little smile. You do know your grandma and grandpa are going to spoil you, right? I have a feeling her parents are going to do the same. Along with their uncle. I just wish your grandma Kate would get here so she could meet you. Actually, here she is now. Well, look who decided to show up.

Hi.

Mom, this is Victoria Margaret. Oh, Victoria Margaret. I know you probably wish her name was Victoria Catherine, but look, with everything that Maggie’s been through, I hope you understand. Yes, yes, yes. No explanations needed. Victoria is such a beautiful, oh, beautiful, beautiful baby. I just wish we had been introduced maybe two days earlier.

Oh, Kate, I’m… I’m so sorry. We definitely should have called. Yeah, after the birth, things got a little crazy, but hey, at least you’re here now for the wedding. The wedding? Yeah. We are getting married right here, right now. Oh. At least you’re getting your priorities in order. Doesn’t seem very festive, though.

But we have everything we need. Who’s performing the ceremony? That would be me. Ow.

Oh, Bonnie. Hey. I was just on my way to see you. Oh, Maggie, I was gonna come see you too. I just needed a little liquid energy first. Oh, God, those beds at the Salem Inn I was tossing and turning all night. Justin, too. Oh, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t be complaining. How are you? I hope you were able to get some sleep at Doug and Julie’s.

Um, not really. Well, of course not. How could you get any, any sleep? Not only have you just lost your husband, but you’ve been kicked out of your own house by that horrible Vivian Allemagne, who’s also threatened to leave you penniless. And, oh my god, the briefcase! Oh, here I am, just blathering on and on.

I’m so sorry. Tell me, please, please tell me there was something in there that’s gonna kick that evil wench to the curb. Well, actually, there was something in the briefcase. It turns out Victor made it a new will. A new will? Yes, he was in the process of drawing it up when he discovered that he and Vivian were never legally divorced.

So, he, uh, specifically left me 50 percent of his estate. Oh, Maggie! Oh my god, I’m so relieved! That’s wonderful news! So, I guess the rest of the family, we just split the other half, right? Uh, not exactly. Well, I mean, Justin was his favorite nephew, so I mean, he must have left us something, right? I’m sorry, Bonnie, but no.

Victor left the entire other half to his son. His son? Oh my god, which one?

So Vivian gets nothing, and… Maggie gets half of everything. Yeah, that’s what, uh, the new, new will dictates. Good, good. That’s great news, Dad. I mean, Maggie’s got to be relieved, and you too. Judging by the look on your face, there’s a catch, isn’t there? Is this about the other half of Uncle Vic’s estate? Yes, it is.

Oh, God. What the hell did Uncle Vic do? He cut us out, didn’t he? He left the other half to Bo. Oh, no, please, don’t, don’t, don’t tell me, Philip. No, Alex. No, he, uh,

He left the other half of his estate to his other son.

A son that none of us knew

about. Another son that none of us knew about? Are you kidding me? I wish I were. It’s all explained in this letter. So Uncle Victor’s leaving half of his estate to some secret son, Dad? This is insane. After everything you’ve done for him? After everything you’ve done for this family? There’s gotta be some way to fight this.

I mean, come on,

we’re not gonna let some Uncle Vic did. It’s wrong, and at least Auntie Maggie’s taken care of, and Vivian’s… Alex! Stop! Okay. It’s you. What’s me? This letter. Angelica wrote it. Her mother? She wrote some letter to Uncle Vic? Yes. You can read it. I’m sorry, Alex. And I don’t know how else I, I don’t know how else I can tell you this, so I’m just gonna say it.

I’m not your father. Victor

is. Hey, what are you telling me? Alex is not Justin’s son, he’s Victor’s, according to Angelica, yes. No. I can’t believe Well, it was spelled out pretty clearly in her letter.

This is crazy. Believe me, I know. Oh, poor Justin. How is he even dealing with this? Oh God, Maggie, I can’t. I can’t, I can’t believe that Justin is not Alex’s father. I think… I’m…

Victoria’s father, this is,

I don’t know what to say, I don’t think the words exist. Oh my god, if you hadn’t overheard Phillip and Rex talking, I might never have known.

Um, you, you might not have known anyway. I’m, I’m not proud of this, but, At first, I was thinking of keeping that secret. Not only for my own sake, but I overheard Philip and Rex saying that that’s what Sarah wanted. Obviously, it’s what she wanted, and I thought I’d be respecting her wishes if I kept my mouth shut, but…

I also realized that my loyalty isn’t to Sarah, it’s, it’s to you, and… You deserve to know the truth.

The Victoria is my daughter. Yeah, and there’s more.

What? Uh, apparently Sarah isn’t really in love with Rex. She’s only with him to cement her story that he’s the baby’s father. She wanted to do whatever she could to make sure that you never knew that Victoria was yours. And that’s the only reason she’s marrying Rex. Oh my god, they’re… They’re getting married right now at the pub?

Yeah, um, So does that mean that you want to go over there?

So you’re going to perform the ceremony? Rex said he deemed it inefficient, so I went online and got ordained. Great, so we’re all set then? Hey, you never thought you’d have two brothers who are ministers. Haha, lucky me. Okay, enough with the jokes. Let’s get this show on the road. We’re here. Can’t wait.

We are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in marriage. And, seeing as how this is my first go at this, I wanted to do it right. So, I’d like to begin with a recitation of one of my favorite epic poems. Low praise of the prowess of people kings. I’m just teasing you, bro. No, really, I just wanted to keep it sweet and simple today.

So here goes. Marriage is an honorable commitment and definitely a joyous one, but it can often involve making sacrifices for the one we love the most. But it is through these sacrifices that an even greater joy can be found. And with that said, Do you, Rex Brady, take Sarah Horton to be your lawfully wedded wife, to live together in matrimony, to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her?

In sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, to have and to hold, from this day forward, as long as you both shall live. I do. Do you, Sarah Horton, take Rex Brady to be your lawfully wedded husband? To live together in matrimony? To love him, comfort him, honor and keep him? In sickness and in health? In sorrow and in joy, to have and to hold, from this day forward, as long as you both shall live.

Do you think I should go over there and cause a scene? I think that you need to go tell Sarah that you know everything. Before she… Before she what? What, marries her ex? Chloe, we’re, we’re about to get married. We’re heading to New York to meet up with your parents and Parker, we have plane tickets. Xander.

What? Come on, you’re not thinking straight. You know this changes everything. No, no, no, nothing has changed, but we’re still the same people we were this morning. The ones who make each other laugh and play darts and have made a really happy home here. We’re the same people who are planning our life together.

Come on, Xander, stop. You know we’re… You know this changes everything. Now that we know the truth… about the baby… and Sarah… Can you honestly say this doesn’t change everything? I

do really care about you, Chloe. I know. I know you do. I love you.

But I just feel that Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t say it.

Just go.

I have to go. I have to find Justin. Bonnie, please, would you just sit with me for a bit? I mean, give Alex and Justin time to talk. He’s my husband, Maggie. He needs me. And I need to go to him now. Maggie, imagine if Victor found out that one of his children wasn’t his. What would you do? They’re at the Hortons.

Victor.

He’s my, uh, he and my mother. You never knew? No. No. I can only assume that they had some kind of dalliance and kept it a secret.

If that’s true, um, why would it be there? Why would he and my mother have kept that a secret from me my whole life? Well, according to this letter, your mother thought that, um, I would be devastated to learn that, uh, she had lied to me and allowed me to think that, uh, Beautiful baby boy is mine. And that, uh, that I would feel incredibly betrayed by my uncle.

You know, flesh and blood. So, that’s why she and Victor kept it from me. And you.

Sarah, I think that’s your cue. Yeah, I, I’m so sorry, where were we? Oh, just me asking if you’d take Rex to be your lawfully wedded husband. Right, right. Yes, of course, yes. Then, if we could have the rings. Here you go. Thanks, Pop. With this ring, I thee wed.

With this ring, I thee wed.

By the power vested in me, by the almighty internet, I now pronounce you husband and wife.

And that’s your cue, bro. Good work.

My God.

When Brady and I went to Greece to try and figure out what Uncle Vic was up to, um, I never could have imagined that it would be this. Look, look, I don’t care what this paper says. And Victor may be your biological father, but Alex, look at me. I am your dad, in every way that counts, and nothing can change that.

You don’t feel that way?

Oh, I’m feeling, uh,

I can’t really put into words, um, None of it seems real.

Everything that I thought of, Who I am, Who my father is. Who my brothers are is suddenly told to me that it was all a lie.

I was really proud to know that you were my father. You’re a good person.

You’re honorable. And you are honest, and you are kind, and I always thought that because I was part of you, that maybe deep down somewhere inside of me, that that was inside of me too, and I, uh…

I just think that it always, it always gave me some kind of hope for myself. And now, uh, Alex, you are a good person. And I have, I know I’ve been tough on you from time to time, but I have always, I’ve always believed in you, son. Because I know how smart you are, and most importantly, What a good heart you have.

I feel like any minute I’m gonna wake up from this very strange nightmare.

I hope the hell I do very soon.

I think I need to be alone right now.

Yeah.

I understand.

Well, if I do say so myself… It’s very well hung. Said the chorus girl to the archbishop. You know there’s a reason I like you, you’ve got a filthy mind and a terrible aim. You know, let’s hope that that board stays up there because I would hate for it to fall the moment I hit my first bullseye. If a massive earthquake were to hit Salem…

And that wall started to crumble? Our dart bullet would stop it from falling. You think? I know. That’s a bearing wall. It might save the whole building. Thanks to my expert installation. Unbelievable.

Ha ha, believe it. I’m ready for that shoulder massage. Uh huh.

Ooh. Oh yeah, that feels good. Maybe I don’t mind losing so much

after a while.

Mom, hi. It’s me. No, I’m not at the airport. I’m actually, I’m actually not. Yeah, something’s wrong. Um, Xander and I, we, uh,

well, the wedding is off.

Xander.

Sorry to crash the party, Mrs. Brady. Xander, what are you doing here? I came for my baby. Your baby. This is not your baby. Are you sure about that? I want to ask them. What the hell are you talking about? Stop. Chloe was there, Philip. In the square. She overheard you and Rex talking about it. About how Sarah’s baby is actually mine.

But Chloe had the decency to tell me. Before we both got on a plane to go to New York. To get married. Chloe must have misunderstood. Say something, Sarah.

She didn’t misunderstand. She’s right. Victoria is Sanders. She’s yours.

You and I need to

talk. Alone.

Vivian, um, it’s Maggie. I need to see you as soon as possible. You and I have something very important to discuss.

Honey, I just, I just talked to Maggie. Oh, baby, I’m so sorry. Come here, baby. Come here. Oh, honey.

How can this be happening?

How can you be my father?

I thought you two, uh… Could use these, you know. Say that again.

So, that beautiful little girl, isn’t our granddaughter?

No. And I’m sorry. That’s why I was so slow to… To tell you about her. Um, so I guess that means that you and Sarah weren’t in a real relationship. She wasn’t.

I was.

Well, I assume you left my daughter with her fake father, huh? How could you do this, Sarah? How could you keep her from me?

No, it’s okay, Mom. You don’t have to come here. No, I promise. No, I will be fine, okay? I, um… I’ll just, I’ll talk to you later, okay? Okay, I love you too.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Roman, you are not going to believe this. What is it? What’s wrong? Well, I just ran into your sister and she said… I mean, honestly, I don’t even feel like I can tell you. It’s so upsetting. I mean, I am. I am. But you… You should be warned. It’s really disturbing. What? What did Kayla say? Congratulations. On what?

Apparently, Sarah Horton gave birth to our grandchild and no one told us.

Have you shared any of your good news with our mother? No, not yet. Why not? Well, because I feel guilty lying to her. Lying? About what?

I’m not the baby’s father. What do you mean? Victoria’s not my daughter. She’s Xander’s. You’re joking, right? No, I’m not joking. Xander is the father of Sarah’s baby.

Xander? What a surprise. It’s little Victoria. She’s great. Now that she’s sleeping. How are you doing? Exhausted, but otherwise fine. So you’re recovered from that scare after the birth? Yeah, thankfully so. I’m being discharged today. Oh, great. So what brings you by? Oh, I just, um… That’s something I wanted to tell you.

Xander is Victoria’s father. He has a right to know. Um, actually there’s something I want to tell you, too.

Thank you so much for coming, Alexander. I got your text. What the hell do you want? Well, I’ll be brief. The thing is, I’m running Titan now, and I need a right hand man, and I thought of you as my first choice. You want to hire me? Yes, I have big plans for Titan. And, uh, from what I’ve heard about you, I think you’re exactly the right thing.

Well, I gotta say, Vivian, I am very grateful for this opportunity. Really? Yes, because now I can tell you to take your job and shove it. Wow.

So now we know. Victor destroyed his old will and had this… New and drawn up and, well, he was in Greece. The question is why? Well, he had just been to Visebo. Do you think that had anything to do with it? Possibly. I wonder what changes he made. Only one way to find out.

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

So… What’s your news? Um, you go first.

Chloe and I are getting married. Yeah, I know that already. No, I mean, we’re getting married today. Oh. Not that you care or anything, I just wanted you to hear it from me first. Um, that’s uh, that’s very, that’s very considerate of you. Uh, congratulations. Thanks. So, um, what was it you wanted to tell me?

I don’t get it. If Xander’s the father, why have you been telling everyone the baby’s yours? Sarah asked me to. Why? Alright, let’s rewind a bunch of months here. So, Sarah and Xander… They were very happily married. Until Sarah finds out about what Xander did to Bonnie and Susan. The whole deranged clown thing.

Exactly. And then after all that happened, Sarah finds out she’s pregnant with Xander’s baby. And she doesn’t want a guy like Xander, who’s capable of something so horrible, to be the father of her child. So, I stepped in. Hey, I, I realize as I’m saying this, I might be bringing some stuff up for you, like about Claire.

No, this is totally different. Xander’s a criminal. He put Sarah through so much already, it makes sense that a double kidnapping was the last straw. Exactly. So she had to get away from him. So she signs the divorce papers, moves to Chicago, so nobody finds out she’s pregnant. Not even her own mother.

You’re the lawyer, you should read it. Do you need a minute? No, I’m ready. Okay. Victor Yergos Kiriakis, being of sound mind and under no undue influence or duress, hereby declare this to be my last will and testament, revoking all previous wills and codicils. Before I enumerate my final wishes, it should be stated that in the course of drawing up this new document, some very upsetting information has come to light.

My estate attorney discovered that, due to a ghastly clerical error, My divorce from Vivian Alomain was never finalized. Therefore, my beloved Maggie and I were never legally married. I intend to rectify this deeply regrettable mistake the moment I return to Salem, and trust me, heads are going to roll. Ha ha ha ha.

Of course. It is my intention to finalize my divorce and make Maggie my wife as soon as possible. In the meantime, I want to ensure that she’s provided for in the event of my death. And to that end, I hereby leave 50 percent of my entire estate to Margaret Simmons Horton. Oh, Maggie. Oh. Oh.

Uh, what I wanted to tell you was that, um, Rex and I are also getting married today. Oh. It’s, it’s quite a coincidence. Are you sure you’re up for it? Well, yeah, um, like I said, I’m, I’m getting discharged and now that our baby is here we just want to make our little family official. Makes sense. I know you’re a fiercely independent woman, but of course you want your daughter to have her father’s name.

So, how did you end up in the role of baby daddy? A few months ago, Bonnie comes to Chicago to see Mimi and Emily. Why am I not surprised Bonnie’s a mother? I know, right? So, it’s my night with Emily. So Bonnie comes over to my apartment and she finds a very pregnant Sarah. So I immediately jump in and say the kid’s mine.

Did she buy it? No, not at all. But Sarah did convince her to stay silent. So Bonnie’s the only one who knows. Mmm, Justin knows, Maggie knows. But everybody’s going to keep it a secret from Xander because that’s what Sarah wants. And I, I get it. If he knew Victoria was his daughter, it would bond him and Sarah for life.

She’d never be rid of him. Plus, she, she would never be sure that she and her baby would be safe. Look, can you please, please keep this a secret? Don’t tell anybody. I know Xander’s your cousin. I have zero loyalty. More importantly, I don’t want to mess things up for you. I know you never stopped loving Sarah, and you two are getting married.

Oh yeah, the wedding. For Sarah, the wedding is just about… Protecting her child, for me, I’ve made it very clear to Sarah that I’m doing everything I can to win her back, for real. Which will be a hell of a lot easier without Xander sniffing around. Yeah. So, you have my word, brother. I will keep my mouth shut.

Thank you. Really, I appreciate that. Especially since telling the truth would clear a path for you and Chloe.

Sarah had a baby? Yes. I was told, not by our son, that her water broke after Victor’s funeral and they didn’t even make it to the hospital. Is the baby okay? Kayla told me that our granddaughter is just fine. So they had a girl? I need him to Victoria. Let’s go. Where? To the hospital to see our brand new grandbaby.

Not so fast.

Well, I’m really disappointed. I thought you’d take my offer. Now, why would you think that, knowing we despise you? What did I ever do to you? You’ve been messing with my family for years. And what you did to my brother, Sonny. Yeah, that dirtbag Leo Stark falsely accused him of sexual harassment. You made his life a living hell and you still hadn’t let up on us because you just kicked my father and his wife out of their own home.

Well, I think Justin should find his own place to live. And who is that hillbilly wife? She’s not your mother! Bonnie’s still my family. And so was Maggie. Oh, really? I didn’t know you cared about Maggie.

Thank you.

Thank you, my darling. Hmm.

So, Victor knew that he was still married to Vivian. Do you think that’s why he created this new will? Well, the lawyer stated that he discovered the upsetting information about Vivian while he was drawing this up, which means the changes were already in motion. There is so much to process. Well, one thing is clear, Maggie.

My uncle was madly in love with you, and he couldn’t wait to marry you. Well, I wish we had gotten that chance. You know, it’s, it’s, it’s painful to think that our marriage wasn’t real. You know, I was there at your wedding. In fact, I think I was the one who pronounced you husband and wife. That’s right. The Justin of the Peace D.

K. couldn’t make it because of that snowstorm or something. Neither could the guests, or the caterer, or the florist, the musicians. But it didn’t matter. Because there was so much love in that room. The love that I saw that day and continued to see throughout the years you spent together was real, Maggie.

And an improperly filed piece of paper doesn’t change that. Ah, Justin. You know, I have to admit, this whole mystery surrounding Victor’s will, it hasn’t been easy on me. And it’s not because of the money. I don’t care about that. I don’t care about it. It’s Vivian. Yeah. Yeah, knowing that that will was destroyed and that Viper is gonna get it.

Everything. There is a little part of me though, I guess, that wondered whether Victor’s feelings for me had changed. But now you don’t need to wonder anymore. Victor’s feelings and his intentions are all here in black and white. And that’s for Vivian. Well, I can’t wait to see the look on her face when she discovers that she will inherit nothing.

Unless Victor left her the other 50%. Oh, not a chance. But I am curious about the other half.

Yeah. So, uh, where are you and Rex getting married? Um, he’s asking his parents if we could just do it at the pub. A family owned establishment, great choice. Uh, how about you? Hope we didn’t pick the same venue. No worries there. Chloe’s family are all in New York, so we’re gonna hop on a plane in a couple of hours.

Tie the knot over there. Nice. Ugh, it’ll be my first time meeting Parker. I hope he doesn’t hate my guts. No, my nephew is very sweet. I’m sure you two will get along just fine. Still, it’s bound to be awkward. Hi, nice to meet you. I’m your new stepdad. Well, maybe don’t lead with that. But, just be yourself.

Just

less dopey. Got it. Seriously, Xander. You’re gonna be a great dad. Do you really

think so? Think about it. Xander finds out the baby is his. pretty good chance he’s gonna try to get Sarah back, which would free Chloe up to be with you. Maybe, but I’m not going down that road again. I mean, yes, I still love Chloe, but it’s too late for us. I’ve screwed up too many times. Everything I’ve done, I disagree with that.

Bottom line, Chloe’s with Xander, which is better for you, Sarah, and the baby. Right now, that’s all that matters. I appreciate you. Thank you. It means a lot to me. Hey, since you’re being so magnanimous, I have one more favor. Shoot. So, you know, Sarah and I are getting married today. I’m gonna ask my parents if we can use the pub, but we need somebody to officiate.

I would like it to be you. I’d be honored. Great. Look, you have to get ordained. It’s really quick. You can do it online. But, um, hey, I gotta go pick up Sarah and the baby right now, but I’ll meet you at the pub. I’ll see you there. All right.

So, you don’t want to meet our granddaughter? No, of course I do, but Rex didn’t even have the courtesy to tell us that his child was born. I mean, why shouldn’t we wait? Okay, look, I know you’re hurt, but aren’t you being just a little bit petty about this? Two days. He had two days. He could’ve texted us. He could’ve, he could’ve phoned us.

Hell, he could’ve even sent me a, a baby emoji. He could’ve given us anything. Look, Kate, you know what it’s like having a newborn. Total chaos. No sleep. No, it’s more than that. What do you mean? I mean, he was really squirrely about this whole thing right from the beginning. I mean, not telling us that he and Sarah were back together again.

Not to mention the engagement. And then to walk out that door and turn and say, Oh, by the way, Sarah’s pregnant with my child. That, uh, that was a little strange, yeah. It’s all very strange. Something’s not right about this. My Aunt Maggie and I are getting along just fine now. Thank you. She’s also grieving the husband that she just lost.

So while you probably get off on compounding her pain. I want no part of it. Oh, that was very moving. But you’re not exactly an altruist. What the hell does that mean, Vivian? You sort of remind me of your mother. Angelica Devereaux.

You knew my mother? No, I knew her through Victor. She was sort of cutthroat and shrewd, which I think is exactly what your instincts are.

You know, my Uncle Vic said the same thing to me. That I have a killer instinct. Well, there you are. Embrace that instinct. Come work with me at Titan. Make your uncle proud. Okay,

where were we? Um… The personal effects listed below are to be distributed to my various family members, as indicated. Aside from these items, the other 50 percent of my estate, including controlling interest in Titan, shall go to my son. Which son? He knew Bo was in a coma. I can’t imagine it would be him.

Well, he must have been chillin Possibly. But Kate said Victor set up a separate trust for him. Well, keep, keep reading. I love my sons Bo and Phillip a great deal and have made arrangements for their medical care to be covered indefinitely. However, neither of them is the son to whom I am referring. Paul, I, I, I don’t understand.

The son who will inherit the other half of my estate is one I have heretofore never acknowledged.

Yeah, Xander, I think that you’re capable of being a very loving father. Or stepfather. I saw how you were with Mackenzie. Except she wasn’t really Mackenzie, she was… Actually, Rachel. Yeah, we don’t have to revisit that one. I know that you switched the babies to spare me pain. Yeah, but I just ended up making everything so much worse.

Yeah, that is the trouble that you get into. You make bad decisions. Sometimes they come from a good place, but other times, they don’t. Either way, people get hurt. I don’t want to make that same mistake with Parker. I want to be the kind of man that he can look up to. A good man. I kind of said that before, but…

This time, hopefully… It’ll be different. Hopefully. All right, I should, I should get going. I don’t want to miss that flight. Hey, good luck with the wedding. Xander,

I hope you and Chloe are very happy together.

You’re

right. You are right, Ashley. Rex’s behavior has been, uh, A little off. I don’t know. Maybe he’s angry at us. Maybe he’s angry at you. You think it’s my fault? No, no. Wait a minute. Look, all I’m asking is this. Do you think that maybe you did something to rub him the wrong way? You have been known to alienate your kids from time to time.

Don’t I know it? Okay. Did you know that Sarah had her baby? Kayla told me. Oh, there you go. At least we’re not the only ones left in the dark. He didn’t even tell his brother. I actually just ran into him. Really? So did he mention the reason that he neglected to tell the family about his baby? I’d better let him answer that.

He’s coming here to see you guys after he picks up Sarah and the baby from the hospital. Okay, you know, you see now you’re acting just as squirrelly as he is. What is going on? What are you not telling me? Nothing. Well, obviously that’s a lie. Wow, Mom, I thought Vivian was being aggressive. Vivian? What do you mean?

Oh, she asked me down to Titan earlier. Offered me a job as her right hand man. What? Oh yeah, she had a whole big pitch. Said I was her first choice for the position. Okay, so what did you say? What do you think I said? I turned her down flat. I cannot believe the nerve of that woman trying to draw you into her web again.

This is not going to happen. Okay. Mom, it’s fine. I already told her no. Well, believe me, there are a few more things that I want to say to her. I am going to give that bitch a piece of my mind.

I may be many things, Vivian, but I’m not a traitor. So no, I will not be betraying my family and partnering up with the enemy. Well, aren’t you already working with the enemy? Basic Black is owned. I don’t have to explain my career choices to you at all. My answer is no. And that’s not gonna change. Leave me the hell alone.

Doesn’t anybody want to work anymore?

So who’s the other son? I have no idea. Well, what does Victor say about it? I take this action not to punish my other heirs, but to make amends for denying my son his birthright from the day he was born. Oh, my God. After visiting Bo, I began to reflect upon my legacy, and came to realize that this is a secret I can no longer keep.

My son deserves to know the truth, and I plan to tell him in person upon my return to Salem. However, I’m also officially documenting it, so there will be no confusion or unanswered questions. The attached letter will explain everything. Letter?

There’s nothing in that stack of letters that they found in Victor’s childhood home. Well, there’s so many of them. Oh. To be included with my will.

Dear Victor, After much back and forth, I am so pleased that we’re finally on the same page about this. As you know, there is nothing more important to me In the future of our son, I’ll admit I wasn’t happy when you showed up at the hospital for his birth. But now that several months have passed, I realized it was your right to be there as he is as much yours as he is mine.

In fact, every time I look at our precious baby, I see you. The dark hair, the dark eyes, the way he screams his head off. When he doesn’t get his way, your pull toward him is only natural. But you must promise me that you will stick to the plan. No one can know that you are the father of my child. It would cause immeasurable pain to a man that we both love.

He’d be devastated to learn that I have lied to him. That I allowed him to think our sweet boy is his.

He would feel incredibly betrayed by you. And his own flesh and blood Does this mean Victor’s son was raised by someone in his own family

We need to talk What can I do for you, Kate? Well, for starters, you can stay away from my son. I assume you mean Philip. Yeah. He told me that you offered him a job. I thought he wanted to be part of his father’s legacy. Not if he has to work with someone like you. What’s the matter, Kate? You jealous? Does your blood boil seeing me in this office?

No. Actually, I feel sick to my stomach. And Phillip must have as well, because he rejected you in record time, didn’t he? Of course, you’re used to that with Kiriakis men. Hmm, Viv? Anyway, bottom line, you’re going to have to find someone else to do your dirty work. How about you? Hi.

Hi. Great timing. I just got discharged. I was about to get dressed. Do you have the rings? Yeah, right here. Did you ask your parents about the pub? I thought we could ask them together. Go over there and they could meet the baby. How’s she doing? She’s great. She even managed to sleep through a visit from Xander.

What was he doing here? Um, he came to tell me that he and Chloe are also getting married today. Today? It’s a big day for weddings, I guess. Yeah. Hey. I know I’ve said this a lot. This is a big decision. If you’re having any second thoughts about this wedding.

For the last time. Marrying you is the best decision for me, for Victoria, for everyone.

Hi.

Looks like someone found a dress. Uh, yep, I, I lucked out. Great, well, better go get packed. We don’t want to miss our flight, do we? Everybody’s gonna keep it a secret from Xander because that’s what Sarah wants. And I, I get it. If he knew Victoria was his daughter, I would bond him and Sarah for life. Chloe?

Is something wrong? No, no, no, no. I, I’m, I’m fine. I’m, I’m just thinking I can’t… I can’t believe this is finally happening. I should go get packed.

My God, Justin. Someone in this family is Victor’s son and he doesn’t know it. I think you should keep reading.

I know you wanted to claim this child as your own, but this is a secret that we must take to our graves. While our son will never know you. As his father, he will at least know you as an uncle. I hope you can take comfort in that. Trust me, Victor, this is what’s best for everyone, especially…

This is what’s best for everyone, especially little Alexander. Sincerely, Angelica.

Okay, are you ready? Yeah, sure am. Hey, um, before we go, I just, I really want to thank you for something. For what? For looking past all my faults. You know, my arrogance, my temper, my lack of skill at darts and putting things on walls. And still finding it in your heart to… Love me anyway, I can’t believe I got so lucky that such a beautiful, generous, kind woman has agreed to spend the rest of her life with me.

Chloe, I promise,

I’m going to work so hard to prove myself worthy of your love each and every day.

Alright, let’s get hitched.

I’m sorry, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t marry you. Why? Because of Sarah. Chloe, come on, we’ve talked about this so many times, I’m totally over Sarah, I really am. I just met, um, a s Sarah, she lied to you. Rex isn’t the father of her baby. You are.

Dad, someone I’d like you to meet. Well, it’s about time. This is Victoria. Oh my god, she is just absolutely beautiful. Congrats you two. Thank you. I’d have known she’d arrived and I’d have sent over a whole lot of food. Yeah. Why didn’t you tell us? She, she came a little early. The birth was a little dicey.

There was just a lot going on. Yeah, well don’t worry about it. All is forgiven now that I’ve met my beautiful granddaughter. But your mother, that is a whole different story. She’s uh, she’s pretty ticked off of you. Yeah, I kind of figured. Um, where is mom? Do

you think that I would want to work for you? Well, I can’t say you’re my first choice, but I do admire your chops as a businesswoman. Vivian, you have never admired anything about me. That is not true. I thought you were a perfectly worthy adversary. Why don’t we stop this animosity and team up together?

Well, if you think that’s ever going to happen, you’re completely out of your mind. Okay, your loss. You can see yourself out. This really is a travesty, you being in charge. You can insult me all you want, Kate, but the fact is I run Victor’s company now, and you and no one else is going to be able to stop me.

No, no, no, that can’t be right. Angelica signed the letter.

Oh my God. I can’t believe this. The child that she’s talking about.

Victor’s son. It’s Alex.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Alex. Theresa. Hi. Hey. Uh, listen, we need to talk. About what happened in Greece.

Hey, cuz. Have a seat. So this is the only item the ISA recovered from the wreckage of Victor’s plane. This is it. Hopefully this will give us some insight as to what Grandfather was doing right before he died. Why he went to Greece, why he destroyed the will. You haven’t opened it? No. Alex and I agreed that Maggie should be the one to do it.

Oh, out with the old, and in with the best.

Yes? Oh, send him in. Thank you.

Oh, Philip. Oh, Philip, my darling, thank you so much for coming. Phillip. What do you want, Vivian? Why’d you text me to come down here? Well, now that I’m, I’m running tight and I need a right hand man. Good for you. No, good for you. Because you’re my first and only choice for the position.

Sweet girl. You are just so perfect. Look at your little hands. You got Mama’s finger? Just hold on, Victoria. Never let go.

Sarah, Sarah, remember that birth thing class we did? Just, just visualize the pain and grab my hand and squeeze it as hard as you can. Sarah, Sarah,

remember that birth thing class we did? Just, just visualize the pain and grab my hand and squeeze it as hard as you can.

Hi. Thank you for making me a She’s beautiful. But her mom…

Hey. Xander. Are you okay? What is it?

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

So Victor definitely met with this old friend in Greece. Yeah, yeah, his old friend Constantine, he had said the grandfather had just come from seeing Bo, and that something was weighing very heavily on him. Oh, that makes sense. But he thought it might be about something else, too. Like what? Did Victor say anything about his will?

Or why he destroyed it? No. He mentioned a letter. What letter? Constantine said that the letter was very important to him. Then I remembered that Kayla had told me about when Beau had held her captive at Grandfather’s old childhood home, that she had found a box containing a bunch of his letters. So I asked Constantine to take us to the old house.

And? We got there and I found the box. But it was empty. So at that point we thought that this trip was a big waste of time until Shane showed up at our hotel with this briefcase that he gave to Teresa. Teresa? What was she doing in Greece? That little stalker followed me there.

You want to talk about what happened in Greece. Between us? The sex? And I’m guessing this is your usual M. O.? I’m not sure what you mean. Right. Like you’ve never avoided someone the day after you slept with them. I mean, clearly you’re a pro at it, because we just took a, what, 13 hour flight back from Athens all the way to Chicago, and you didn’t so much as acknowledge my existence.

Teresa, I was not avoiding you. I was asleep. I was kind of worn out. Look, Alex, it’s okay. Alright? I get it. You don’t have to worry. Worry about what? Worry that you have to act like you’re going to hide from me whenever you see me. Because I think last night meant something. Okay, I don’t. And I know you only had sex with me because you felt sorry for me.

So I was just having a dream. Yeah, it seemed pretty intense. Well, it was actually. I bet. I know that you’ve been really upset about Victor and then everything that’s happened with Maggie. Oh, it wasn’t about Victor or Maggie. It was about Sarah. Oh. No, I was dreaming about her having the baby. It made me realize something.

Aww.

How is my precious granddaughter? She’s just sound asleep. Well, it looks like my precious daughter could use a little rest, too. Oh my gosh. You have no idea. I can’t wait to come back to the mansion and just crawl into a big old soft bed.

Wow. She’s gorgeous. She’s beautiful. I saw that. You saw what? That frown. When I mentioned coming home. What’s going on? Nothing. Mom. Translation. Sarah, darling, I don’t want to bother you with my problems. So, judging from the vibe I’m getting from you, it’s fairly serious. Spill. Sweetheart, you’ve been through such an ordeal.

I’m fine. But, please, I know that something’s wrong, so just tell me. Okay. Well, it’s a big problem. And her name is Vivian Allemane.

Why would you ever think I’d want to work for you? I carried you in my womb for nine months. So what? I owe you? No, of course not. It’s just. I felt so close to you. And if you take this job, I could feel that way again. Please, Philip, come back to Titan. You belong here.

Sorry, but my answer is a hard no. I’m not coming back to Titan. But it’s what your father would have wanted. Mmm, well, I don’t know about that. But I can tell you what he wouldn’t have wanted, what would have made him strangle the life out of you. And that’s knowing that you had Maggie ousted from this company and tossed out of her home.

So, you need to bring her back to Titan and give her back the mansion. Will you do that for me? And to honor my father’s memory? Yes, of course I will, Philip. When hell freezes over. Vivian’s

divorce from Victor was never finalized?

Which means that my marriage to Victor isn’t legal. So the house? The company, the entire fortune, everything goes to that miserable shrew. Oh my god! Mom, I’m so sorry. That can’t be what Victor wanted. Of course it isn’t. But don’t worry, I’m not giving up. In fact, we’ve already launched a counter offensive.

Meaning we’ve started information gathering. And the we is Brady and Alex. They’ve gone to Greece. To find out why Victor was there. And why he destroyed his will.

Theresa followed you to Greece. Yeah, she had said that Alex invited her to come along, which turned out to be a giant lie because he actually asked her not to come. She’s never been one to take no for an answer. Oh, God, tell me about it. You know, when she came back to town for Grandfather’s funeral, she insisted that we give our relationship another shot.

And you? I shot her down. And then she found out that Alex and I were going on this trip and she showed up at our hotel on the pretext that she was going to help us out. I was, I was furious with her. I was, I was hard on her. Well, why wouldn’t you be? You didn’t want her there. Both you and Alex told her not to come.

Exactly. Exactly. But when I leaned into her, she stopped throwing herself at me and, surprise, She started throwing herself at Alex. Oh, Alex. What the hell? Justin, you’re not surprised about it, are you? Well, I’m not surprised, but I’m a little concerned. I don’t want that woman getting her hooks into my son.

Theresa, why would I feel sorry for you? Because I was a total wreck after Brady insulted me. Calling me desperate and pathetic and, look, I was hurt and you comforted me and… And you think I took advantage of you? No, not at all. If anything, I took advantage of you.

So, what did this dream make you realize? Well,

when

I was in labor, I looked over and… You were holding her other hand. And I just… It told me something about you. What? Well, there I was, helping my ex wife at this very dangerous, emotional time, and my fiancé wasn’t jealous or upset, not in the least. You were just there for Sarah. Comforting her. God, that did impress the hell out of me.

Do you know what I saw? I saw you giving courage and strength to a woman who was scared out of her mind. I saw you put your history with her aside to make her feel safe when she was bringing her baby into the world. And that did impress the hell out of me. I’m just the luckiest man, aren’t I? I love you, Chloe.

I love you, too.

I gave in to temptation and used you to make myself feel better. You know, I don’t mind being used in that way. Yeah, well, still it wasn’t cool that I put myself between you and Brady. Oh, Brady was being a jerk. Yeah, and you were really kind to me, and I appreciate it. And the sex was great, even if it was pity sex.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, that was not pity sex. No, Alex, you don’t know how to do it. Oh, yes, I do, because I have to make myself very clear on this. And I know you were upset last night, so maybe you didn’t understand it all the way. But I’m going to tell you again, Teresa Donovan. You are a beautiful woman. And what happened between us is not because I felt sorry for you.

I happen to be incredibly attracted to you.

Look, if Alex wants to date Teresa, I’m not gonna stop him. I mean, I told him that she’s trouble and he’s gotta be really careful. I don’t like this. At all. Her using him to make you jealous. Him, most likely, letting her. He’s a big boy. I hope he knows what he’s doing. He’s just starting to turn his life around.

He’s in therapy, you know. Working to try and change his unhealthy patterns. Especially with women. No offense to the mother of your child, but getting involved with Teresa Donovan isn’t exactly healthy.

I know. In your twisted mind, you think of me as your son. But I’m not. We’re nothing to each other, Vivian. So, do me a favor. Never contact me again. Working here is one of the reasons I ended up in a mental institution. No job is worth that. I’m not offering you just a job. I’m offering you Chloe Lane.

Enough. If we keep at this, we will never finish planning our wedding. Can’t we do both? You know, I believe that we can mix planning and pleasure. Sander, Cook, are you saying that planning our wedding would not cause you extreme pleasure? How would I know? We haven’t even started yet. Exactly, which is why we’ve got to get to it ASAP.

Well, how’s this for a plan? Let’s get up, get dressed. And get married today.

Hello. Hey. Daddy’s here. Yeah, she is sound asleep. So, no reaction for you. Sorry. No offense taken whatsoever. Hi Maggie. Hi Rex. So what are the odds that the three most beautiful ladies in the world are all in the same room at the same time? And it works out perfectly because I have an idea that I want you all to hear.

Now lay it on us. I think that you and I should get married today.

You want to get married today? Well, you’re being discharged anyway. Why not? Well, for starters, we haven’t even planned a wedding. Well, what’s the plan? I mean, I could go to the square, go to the jewelers, buy some rings, and we could get married at the pub. And Maggie, you’re ordained, right? So you can officiate.

Or you don’t have to officiate. We can have somebody else do that, and you can be our witness. Mom? Why aren’t you saying anything? I’m holding my tongue. Well, don’t. We want to know what you think.

You both know that I’m committed to keeping the child’s fraternity a secret. Because that’s what my daughter asked me to do. But I’ve gone on the record. Saying that I don’t think it’s right. Xander is Victoria’s father. He has a right to know, Mom. Look, I’m not gonna say anything. But, as someone who was recently widowed, I’m reminded that marriage is sacred.

It’s the joining of two souls, and two hearts, and two lives. And not something you just throw together at the last minute. Maggie, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to… Wait! You asked me to preside over a sham wedding that you’re using to double down on a lie. Okay. I’m glad. Because my answer… Would be no.

Goodbye, sweet Victoria. I love you, and I love you.

Did you hear what I said? Yeah, and I’m not gonna dignify it with a response. Oh, then just listen. I know that Chloe Lane was the love of your life, and if you take this job, you have a chance to win her back. There’s just one snag. Chloe’s engaged to Xander Cook.

I’m serious. You’re serious? You want to get married today? Why wait? I don’t know. Don’t you want food, music, guests? All I want is you. I don’t have any friends, so who would I invite? Don’t you want Maggie there? Yeah, sure, I mean… But she’s just got so much going on right now. Yeah, I guess it’s true. Between the death of Victor and the birth of Victoria.

And the fight to keep that witch Vivian Alamein from taking everything that should be hers. Are

you sure you don’t want to be there when Maggie opens this? She didn’t get to say goodbye to her husband, Justin. And now Vivian Alamein has stolen everything that’s left over except for what’s in here, so… I think Maggie deserves to have this moment by herself. Yeah. Well, here’s hoping she gets some peace.

Thanks again, Brady, for your help here. Of course, you’re welcome. And don’t worry about Alex. I’m sure he has the Teresa situation under control.

I thought last night was hot. Did you not? Yeah. Yes. Yes I did, but I, I’m, I, I was a mess, and I’m, I’m really trying to not do that anymore. Do what anymore? Look, when I’m feeling bad, I try to avoid the pain, and I’ll do anything to avoid it, and that’s even if it hurts me, or, or someone else. So… Well, guess what?

I can relate to that. The endless pursuit of not feeling bad. Yeah? Yeah. Has that been a problem for you, too? Mmm, I didn’t used to think so. Until I moved to Salem and… Realized a lot about myself. Mainly that I need to make some changes. How’s it going for you? Pretty well, so far. But I still got a long way to go.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, me too, um, apparently. Especially after what happened last night, and, uh, that was just me trying to avoid the pain. And, uh, I guess what I’m trying to say is I would really like to have hot sex without being on this. Well, that is a very admirable goal, and I think you got that. Oh, yeah? Uh huh.

Definitely. Definitely. Just,

um. Take that. Hello? Theresa, can you come to the pub, please? It’s important. Yeah, yeah, I’ll be right there. Um, Brady wants to see me. Hmm. Do not let him talk to you the way he did last night. I won’t. And Alex, thanks. For what? For being there for me. And hey, uh, I know we’re back in Salem, maybe we could have that dinner, okay?

I would like that.

Look, if you called me over here to apologize for being a total asshat to me No, no, it has nothing to do with being an asshat or anything like that. This has to do with the fact that I got a call from Tate’s school. Is he okay? Apparently not. He’s been expelled. What? They tried to reach you. I didn’t get a call, Brady.

Did, did, did they try your landline? I don’t, I don’t, God, they’re idiots. Okay, let’s just focus on our son right now. Okay, fine. What happened? What did he do? I don’t know. The headmaster wouldn’t give me any details over the phone. God, this is insane. Tate’s never been in trouble before. You sure you have no idea what this could be about?

No! What? Brady, I’m as shocked as you are. Alright, then that does it. Alright, I’m, I’m, I’m booking a flight to California. I’m gonna go pick our son up. Okay, I’m coming with you. The hell you are.

Is it just me or was your mom not exactly thrilled with the idea of us getting married today. She’s just She’s just going through a lot. I know I know What she said that it didn’t change her mind at all. Did it? No, of course not Look, I I love my mom with all my heart And I respect her opinion, but in this case, I just don’t agree.

I don’t want to start a rift between you and your mom, though, Sarah. No, no, you won’t. And ultimately, we all want the same thing. For Victoria to grow up happy and safe. And in time, my mom will see that. Yeah. She was right about one thing. Marriage is a very big deal. And, look, I’m up for it. But if you’re not, you need more time.

It’s okay. No. I want the three of us to be a family. And I am sure of that. So, I don’t see any reason to wait.

I promise you that I am going to be A better father for your daughter than any other man could possibly be.

I know you will. That little angel has stolen my heart.

And I am still hopeful that I could win back yours.

I’m gonna go get those rings. I’ll be back. You know, I was thinking, all your friends hate me, and my family wants nothing to do with me, and your family doesn’t even live here. They are capable of traveling. Yeah, but why should they? I mean, this is also last minute, and I’m sure your mom and dad are busy.

It doesn’t seem fair to expect them to fly over, does it? I suppose. So, why don’t we take the wedding to them in New York? We could honeymoon there. Taking some Broadway shows, I could treat you to a spending spree in Fifth Avenue. Come on, let’s get up, get packed, get on a flight, and tie the knot in the Big Apple.

What do you say?

Sander Cook, please don’t tell me you are going to lose the love of your life to that. Neanderthal. It’s not up to me. Ugh. Please. Do you love the woman or not? Yes. I do. And a couple of years ago, I would have sold my soul to you or anyone else who’d help make her mine. I did some horrible things to that end.

Yes, like framing Brady for your murder. He deserved worse, but we’re getting all off track. I’m trying to talk to you about you and Chloe. There is no me and Chloe! What? There could be. Quid pro quo, darling. You give me what I want, and I will do everything I can to get her back.

So is it a yes? To nuptials in NYC? Matrimony in Manhattan? You know, if we tie the knot there, we can tie it anywhere. Okay, okay, I get the idea. But do you like the idea? I think it’s crazy and impulsive and I don’t know how it could be possible unless… Unless what? Unless I race right over to the square and buy myself a new dress.

Does that mean what I think

it means? It means yes to crazy, to impulsive, and yes to marrying you today.

You have a choice, you can either stay a timid little boy or grow up and be a man. Excuse me? Well, if Chloe is choosing Xander it’s because she doesn’t see an alternative. Become her superstar and show her that you can bring all of her dreams to her. We’re done here. You know that spiel you just gave me?

Straight out of Victor’s playbook. Butter me up! Reel me in with the promise of validation and respect. But my father didn’t respect me. He just wanted to control me. And I was so eager to please him, I jumped at the chance to do his dirty work. But you? You’re on your own. You’re making a big mistake. Ah!

Another of Victor’s tactics. Getting me to doubt myself. Make bad choices out of fear. Well, I’m not afraid anymore. And…

I’m not gonna let anyone else do a number on my head. I know, look. I know that you suffered. I know that it was very difficult for you in that psychiatric facility. But I’m sorry, my son. I’m not your son, dammit. And I’m not sorry, because I’m better now. You’re just as deranged as ever. My advice, get on the horn with one of the doctors over there, and if they have a vacancy, take it.

I don’t want you involved in this. Well, it’s not up to you Brady. I’m Tate’s mother. Well, Theresa, first you followed me to Greece, and now you want to wait, wait, hang on a second. Are you actually suggesting right now that I got our son expelled from school so that I could sit next to you on an airplane?

God. Okay, you know what, Brady? If you could just set your contempt aside for me for one second, maybe you’ll remember who’s been raising our son all these years as a single mother. Okay. You’re right. I’m sorry. You’re right. You are a good mom. You’ve always been a good mom. I’ve always said you were a good mom.

You’re also a good daughter. The fact that you took Tate to California to be with Kimberly when she got sick again, that was… It was admirable. Thank you. I appreciate that. Look, I was, I was harsh on you. The other night when you suggested you were going to come back to my room. I could have been nicer about the whole thing.

And I know the hotel was pricey. I’ll be happy to reimburse you, Teresa, for whatever it costs. You don’t have to do that. I figured something else out. And like you said, you know what? Let’s just focus on Tate.

Alexander. Thank you so much for coming. I got your text. What the hell do you want? Well, I’ll come right to the point. Now that I’m running Titan, I need a right hand man. And you know what? You’re my first and only choice for this position.

You sure this belonged to Victor? Shane confirmed it.

Have you looked inside? No. No one asked. We thought you should do it. I’ll step out and give you some privacy. No, Justin, don’t. I mean,

what if there’s something horrible in here? A secret that changes the way I remember. My husband. Maggie, if you don’t want to open it, you don’t have to. Now or ever.

Vivian Alomane is wreaking havoc with our family. Because Victor destroyed his will, and I have to know why he did that. So, if that means that the answer is in this briefcase, well then I’m gonna open

it. Okay. Alright.

Letters. We were looking for those. And this? What is this? What is this?

Ah.

Victor’s last will and testament. Look. Look, the date.

Now we know, with absolute certainty, that Victor destroyed his old will. And he created a new one. Ah!

You both know that I’m committed to keeping the child’s paternity a secret. Because that’s what my daughter asked me to do. But I’ve gone on the record, saying that I don’t think it’s right. Xander is Victoria’s father, and he has a right to know.

Oh, what’s a hurry, brother? Oh, hey, uh, Sarah and I are getting married. Wow. I also heard you two had a baby. Yes, little girl. Her name is Victoria. That’s great, man. Congrats on all of it. Thank you. Thank you, Phil. Have you shared any of your good news with our mother? Uh, not yet. Why not? Well… Because I feel guilty lying to her.

Lying? About what?

I’m not really the baby’s father.

What do you mean? Victoria’s not my daughter.

Xander is Victoria’s father.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Okay, classic John Black. You tell me to meet you here, if you need to talk, and then you don’t talk. I will, I will, I will. I just, um, don’t know exactly where to start. So this is serious, huh? Sorry, man. Take your time. Sure. Joseph Bell. That John Bell guy who was in your dad’s unit in Korea? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Doc and I had a long talk with him. And did he remember your father? Steve, that man is my father.

You’re still at the office? That’s why I called. Did you forget that my folks are coming over for dinner? Yes, Steph, I’m sorry. I’m gonna be there. It’s just, you know, this place has been crazy with Maggie on her evening leave. I just have one email to send and then I’ll be home. Chad? Yeah? Did I sound to you just now like a nagging housewife?

I feel like I sounded like a nagging housewife just now. Hey, you gonna, um, you gonna meet me at the door with a rolling bin?

Um. Do you need me to pick up anything on the way home? No, we’re good. Uh, there’s someone at the door. I love you. Love you too.

Vivian Alamein. What are you doing here? Well, is that any way to talk to your new boss?

Ah, there you are. Uh, I thought maybe a cup of tea would calm my nerves. Darling, it’s going to take more than a cup. It’s going to take an entire pot. You’ve really been put through the wringer. Yeah, it sure feels that way. Julie, I can’t thank you and Doug enough for letting me stay here. You don’t have to thank us.

You’re our family. You looked a little grim when you came in here. Is, uh, is that for me? It’s a registered letter. It’s from Vivian. Oh, so…

What, uh, fresh hell is this? Gosh,

you guys are back. Uh, what’d you find out, any leads? It’s getting so late, I was getting worried that Carissa, cut the act. We know what you’ve been up to.

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

I, I can explain that. Oh, don’t bother. The guy at the front desk already told us. What, he did? Yeah, he wanted to confirm my order. Champagne, Duck larange, and a petrushian beluga caviar. Oh, that. Oh, that, yeah, just the caviar, Theresa, costs a thousand dollars an ounce. There’s a little duck left. Did you even bother looking at the right side of the menu, or?

No, I was hungry. Look, I tried to order moustika and some ouzo and baklava, and you didn’t have it on the menu. Not the baklava and moustika part, and so I just had to come up with alternatives. And, you know, damn it, none of this just let me come with you. You didn’t get what you wanted, so you just decided to spend other people’s money, you know.

Changed. A bit. Spare me the litany of my shortcomings, Brady. Alright, why don’t you tell me what happened? Did you get any leads with that guy Constantine? Did you figure out what was happening with Victor before he died?

Okay, do you want me to open it? You want me to tear it into a million little pieces? No, I have to know what she’s up to. Dear Mrs. Horton. Mrs.

Kariakis.

I’m writing to inform you that I am removing you from the position of Chief Executive Officer of Titan Industries, effective immediately. Firing you? She’s firing you?

New boss. What the hell are you talking about? It’s simple. Maggie is out, Vivian Cariocas is in. Vivian Cariocas? Yes. You see, Victor’s and my divorce was never finalized. So I was still married to him when he passed. Maggie was just a kept woman. Bull. And not only am I Victor’s widow, but I’m his sole heir.

Because he had the will and testament destroyed before he died.

Sorry for Maggie. Oh, now all I want to know is, are you going to be on the unemployment line with her, or are you going to be my number two when I execute my new plans for Titan?

Wow. So, the guy with the memory loss isn’t Joseph Bell. He’s the real Timothy Robichaud? And the man that I know as Yeo Ling is the real Joseph Bell. Turns out, he just switched dog tags with my… My dad. So strange to hear myself say my dad. I bet. Anyway… Yeah, they served in the same unit together. In fact, they were in the same foxhole together in Korea when they took a direct hit.

My father got the worst of it. Traumatic brain injury, caused the amnesia. He said he felt like he was gonna die, and he asked Joseph Bell for help. But instead, Bell just simply switched out the dog tags. Sounds like a real yo lang move. He was probably thinking about desertion for a while. My dad gets hit, he realizes, hell, it’s gonna be a lot easier to pull off if I can leave a dead body behind with his tags on it.

So he screws up your father’s life. Until he meets you.

It’s pretty amazing, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s amazing. And miraculous. I mean, uh, Timothy Robichaud just happens to come to Salem. He just happens to be treated by Kayla and Marlena. Who just happens to be married to a private investigator and turns out to be his son.

He’s a great guy. Stevie, he’s, he’s, he’s charming, he’s funny. Doc and I, we love having him with us. All the kids met him, they love him too. He’s just got this, he’s got this incredible spirit. I’m so happy for you now. Really. After all the crap you’ve been through. You deserve a dad like that. Ah, thanks partner, but you know, it’s not what I deserve, it’s what Timothy Robichaud deserves.

I mean, everything he’s been through, everything he’s been deprived of. You know, Doc and I, we just made a decision. We’re just, we’re gonna dote on the guy. We’re just gonna like, try to spend as much time with him as possible. Can’t wait to meet the man. Your you go.

Damn. Oh, yes. Thank you so much. Well, cheers. Cheers. Um, I love what you’ve done with the place. Mm. It’s a work in progress, but it’s definitely coming together. Where are the kids? I fed them and put them to bed already. Oh. Where’s Dad? Uh, well, John wanted to see him about something, but he’ll be alone. Yeah, Chad got held up too.

He’s, uh, pretty much running Titan with Victor gone and Maggie out on leave. I can imagine. Um, you know, I know it was for a sad occasion, Victor’s funeral, but, um, seeing Teresa was great, wasn’t it? I mean, did you get a chance to spend some time with her before she went to California? Uh, actually, she’s not going back to California.

She told me she’s staying here for a while. Oh, let me guess. She’s going after Brady again. Actually, uh, she has set her sights on someone new. Really? Who? Alex. Ah. And as I told Teresa, I would be totally cool if they started dating. Are you sure about that? Why wouldn’t I be? Well, I just think that it can be pretty dicey, you know, when relatives date the same guy.

And I, I do know from experience because I almost lost my relationship with Kim when I got involved with Shane after I thought your dad had died. Well, that was different. Uncle Shane is the love of Aunt Kim’s life. Alex is just an ex boyfriend. An ex boyfriend that you still see quite a lot. Because we’re neighbors.

But, Mom, in case you haven’t noticed, I’m with Chad. And I am totally committed to him. Great. Great. I’m just wondering, what is totally committed mean to you? I mean, do you see yourself marrying Chad?

So is it true? Yes, I just received a registered letter firing me. And that succubus is already at the office. She’s not wasting any time, is she? Maggie, I’m so sorry. Yeah, so am I. Well, is there anything I can do for you? No, Julie’s taking good care of me. But Chad, um… Yeah? Do what you have to do. Working for Vivian doesn’t mean you’re betraying me.

But, uh, Chad? Yeah? Maybe you could find out what she’s up to.

I will do.

Well, welcome to Titan. So, you were, uh, you were telling me about your vision for the company. What did you have in mind? Well, I want to honor Victor’s legacy. Take Titan back to its roots, uh, following his footsteps, so to speak. That’s a good idea. We should go to Greece and pick olives for three years. Try not to fall off a ladder.

How droll. I mean it. How do you think Victor got his empire? Shipping. And how did he get the capital? I don’t know. I do. Drugs.

You’re not talking about pharmaceuticals, are you? Street drugs. Is this, uh, uh, some kind of joke? Your big plan for Titan is to start laundering drug money? That’s, that’s, that’s insane. You know, I’m losing patience here. Titan is going to go back to selling illegal drugs. Now, are you on board or do I have to fire you?

No, you don’t have to fire me, Vivian. I quit.

So, according to this, she’s only giving you two weeks severance pay, is not picking up any of your sick days, and I suppose there’s not going to be any golden parachute. Yeah, you got it. She can’t get away with this one. I’m calling Justin. There’s nothing. That Justin can do. Okay, how about all those people on the Titan board?

Don’t you see? There wasn’t a will. So Vivian is Victor’s sole heir. Therefore, Titan’s majority shareholder. She has all the power. She can get rid of any board member who crosses her. Dear God, Maggie. So let’s face it, Julie. That woman can do whatever the hell she wants with Victor’s company, and there’s not a damn thing we can do to stop her.

So, speaking of fathers and sons, how’s Tripp holding up with Abel in the lab? Well, he’s worried, of course. But he’s hopeful his mom will be brought back safely. Mm hmm. Now, what are you gonna do? You planning on going out there and tracking down Abe and Michaels yourself? Brave asked me to sit this one out.

Thinks I’m too close to the situation because of Tripp. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can understand all that, but I know you’re itching to get your butt out there, right? You know I am. Mm hmm. Well, my son, Brady, he’s in Greece right now with his cousin Alex. They’re, um, looking into Victor’s last days. Well, you’re the private detective.

Why didn’t you go? I figured they could handle this one on their own. Besides, they don’t need a third wheel to tag it along.

I don’t see how it’s any of your business at all. Come on, we’ve been over this, Brady. Victor’s legacy impacts our son, Tate Securiox II, or have you forgotten that already? No. Brady, it’s not like it’s a state secret or anything. We might as well just tell her. Thank you, Alex. Fine, fine. Tell her. Tell her everything.

So this guy Constantine Malionis, he did meet with Uncle Vic before his crash. He said that something was really upsetting him and that he was really troubled. Is that it? Did he mention why Victor destroyed his will? No, he did not mention anything about the will, but he did say something about a letter.

A letter? What letter? Well, Constantine didn’t remember, but Brady remembered that your Aunt Kayla went to the home where Uncle Vic was born. And she saw a box full of letters in his wine cellar. So we checked it out, but we didn’t find anything. And I mean, we tore this place up, but no letters.

Well, um, maybe they’re in here.

That is my grandfather’s briefcase. What the hell are you doing with it? My dad delivered it while you two were out. Your dad? Shane, Shane was here and you’re just now telling us this? Well, I wanted to hear about your meeting first. Theresa, what, what, okay. What did he say and why did he have that? Look, the ISA recovered it from the wreckage from the plane crash and I’m thinking maybe Victor put those letters in on Kayla told you about.

Maybe she put them in here. She may be right. She may, yeah. Um, let’s open it. We’re gonna open it. I don’t think that’s a good idea.

You know, I heard that Victor had ordered his will destroyed right before he died. And also that Vivian showed up claiming to be his widow. Do you have any idea what she might be up to? Well, she either wants to establish a foundation for the betterment of mankind or she wants to suck every dime she can get out of Maggie’s inheritance.

I’d say it’s the second one. What was Vic thinking about anyway? Why would he have that will destroyed? He never would have done that if he thought he was still married to Vivian. That woman is not only crazy, she’s dangerous. Which is why you should watch what you say in public. John. Oh, still slumming, I see.

Marriage? Mom, where is this coming from? Chad and I just moved in together. But you didn’t just move in with Chad. You moved in with his kids. We decided they’re still too young to have a place of their own. Which results in them becoming very attached to you. And vice versa. But, what has that got to do with marriage?

I just think you and Chad need to look at it from their point of view. I mean, you are making meals for them. You’re tucking them in at night. Because I’m seeing their father. Well, isn’t marriage the next logical step? The next logical step for me, Chad, and the kids, or… Or my meddling, if well meaning, Catholic mother.

This has nothing to do with me being Catholic. Well, you’re starting to sound like Grandma Caroline talking about how men won’t buy the cow if they get the milk for free. No, no, no. It is nothing about that. I tell you, I just, I just worry about loss for those kids. And, and I want you to be happy. Don’t you want to marry Chad?

Mom, yes, of course I want to marry Chad, okay?

Theresa, I don’t give a damn what you think. Okay, this belongs to my grandfather and I have a right to know what’s inside it. But my dad specifically said he wanted Victor’s briefcase delivered safely to Maggie. He thinks she should be the one to open it.

Alright, maybe, perhaps. Fine, we’ll, we’ll open it when we get back to Salem. That’s All right, well, then we’re done. We’re done. We might as well go back home. All right, I’m, I’m gonna go pack. Oh, no, no, no, dude. It’s already after midnight. Dude, there’s not gonna be any flights until tomorrow morning. So let’s just get some sleep, and we’ll get up when we leave first thing.

Yeah? All right. I already checked. There’s plenty of seats available on the early flight. Plenty of seats? Fine, we’ll leave in a couple hours. It shouldn’t make much of a difference. Uh, have a good night. See ya.

Where do you think you’re going? Where else? With you, to your room. Like hell you are.

Chad, you’re home. Hey. Hi. I’m gonna, um, I’m gonna, I’ll, if you want, I can leave and then you guys two can, uh, you two can finish your conversation. Oh, don’t be ridiculous. My mom was just being mom. Oh. Uh, anyway, my dad’s going to be here soon. How about a glass of wine while we wait? That’d be great. Um, why don’t you tell us about your day?

How was it? Um, yeah, it was, uh, it was okay. Until, um… Vivian Halloween showed up.

John, my darling nephew. I’m so happy to see you. Even though you didn’t come to visit me one day in prison. Well, I would have, but I didn’t want to. Well, John, as much as I would love to. Stay and catch up with you and Auntie Viv. I gotta go. Stephanie and Kayla are probably wondering where I am. Yeah. But hey, congratulations, man.

Really. Thanks, partner. Yeah. Best to the family. John, are you surprised to see me? No, no, no. I knew you were here. And I also know that you inherited Victor’s entire estate. Yes, it was such a lovely surprise. Yeah, for you perhaps, but not so much for Maggie. Oh, well, you know Maggie, long suffering, but oh, enough about her.

But I have a proposition for you. Yeah, and that would be what? I want you to come and work for me

at Titan. First Vivian steals your home, now she wants to destroy your career. Gotta admit, the old hag has got a lot of ambition.

Worry not. Worry not. I meant it when I said I was gonna help you find the way to fight this. I know you did. Meantime, you always have a home with Doug and me. I appreciate that. But I really should start looking for someplace of my own. Nonsense. Grandma Alice would be whirling over in her grave if she thought for a minute you were alone at a time like this.

Well, the Horton family is not rich and powerful and… Nasty, like the cariocases, but the hortons stick together like glue. Would you? You don’t know what that means to me right now. Good. Okay, have you heard from Brady? Have you heard from Alex? No. No no’s is good news, right? Oh, Julie, I swear to God, if they read Victor’s will and told me that he didn’t have a dime to his name, that he blew it on private planes and Greek statues, and that I was flat broke, I would have thrown my head back and laughed.

But the thought that that venal, evil woman It’s claiming that she is Victor’s widow, stealing everything that he worked so hard for. Brady and Alex, they… Damn it, Julie. They’ve got to find something to stop her. They have to. From your lips, darling. Yeah.

Well, I can’t stay here, Brady, with Alex. I barely know him. That didn’t used to matter to you. God, Brady. I was a little below the boat. Sigh.

Look, we share a child, we can share a room. Theresa. No. Brady, you know what? If you’re worried about protecting your virtue, I’m not interested in sleeping This has nothing to do with my virtue. It’s not a good idea. I don’t want to be alone with you, okay? Brady, lighten up. Alex, please, stay out of this.

Listen, I’m gonna say this to you as well as I can, I don’t think you’re getting this. These delusions of you and I getting back together, Teresa, that’s what they are, they’re delusions. It’s not gonna happen, and what is happening here is you’re coming across desperate and pathetic, and it’s embarrassing for everybody, so please don’t do it anymore.

Just stop. Good night.

Are

you alright?

Not really.

Vivian fired Maggie and is taking over for Titan? Effective immediately. And you quit your job? I had to. Her new business plan is to start moving illegal drugs for Titan. You’re right. You had to quit. Huh. It’s probably your dad. I’ll get it. I’ll get it. Okay. Hi. Sorry I’m late. Hey. What’s going on? It’s like a Morgan.

Chad just quit his job because Vivian Allemane is now in charge of Titan. Damn that woman. No wonder she seems so pleased with herself.

You want me to be your COO? Yes! I made a couple of suggestions about the direction I wanted Titan to go in and Chad DeMera just f ed up and quit. And you were the first person I thought of to replace him. But I have a job. Oh, please, that detective agency. John, you’re an alimane. By adoption. But you have grander things to do than run around Salem photographing philandering husbands.

But I don’t want grander things. I’m happy with the job that I have. Isn’t there anything I can do to change your mind? Hmm. Actually, there is. Uh huh. Every man has his price. Give Maggie back her house. It’s my house. It’s not your house. We both know Vic wanted Maggie to have that house. Well, then he shouldn’t just destroy the will.

Damn it, Vic, for once, just once, will you do the right damn thing? Come on. I would like to. But the fact is, my lawyer told me that if I give Maggie one dime of Victor’s fortune, that will acknowledge that she has access to my husband’s fortune. I can’t do it. Well, looks like you’re gonna have to find yourself another corporate stooge then.

Who? It’s

okay. It’s okay. Look, Theresa, hey. Hey. Brady did not mean what he said. Yes, he did. No, he didn’t. No, he didn’t. He’s jet lagged and he’s worried about Auntie Maggie. You can’t take anything he’s saying right now to heart. He just said what everybody else thinks about me. And that I’m an awful person, that I’m, that I’m unlovable.

No, no, no, no, no, no. That is not true. That is not true at all. Hey, like I said, Brady is off his game right now. That’s all. I mean, the guy lost custody of his daughter. He lost his grandfather. Vivian is making Maggie’s life a living hell, you can’t listen to what he’s saying right now. That’s it, you know, he’s lashing out and he should not be lashing out on you.

He said I was desperate and pathetic! Well that’s not true. He’s wrong, Theresa. You’re smart, you’re brave, and you are, hey, you’re very beautiful. You really think I’m beautiful? Have you ever looked in a mirror? I think you do. I

think… That’s a little better, right? Give it a good look. Thank you. You’re welcome. Thank you for being here with me. I don’t know what I’d do if you weren’t here.

Uh, you know, maybe, maybe it’s because I’m in PR and cautious by nature, but if you are wanting to trade in illegal drugs, isn’t it usual to want to keep that quiet? Yeah, well, our Vivian sure thinks outside the box. Maybe I should call her and pitch her an ad campaign. If you’re thinking drugs, think Titan.

Titan wants to take you higher.

I love how you two make each other laugh. You know, there’s no greater sign of compatibility. Yeah, well, we make each other chuckle here and there. So well. Kids thinking about getting married any time soon? Steve. What? What’d I say?

Knock, knock. Who the hell let you in? Well, I rang the doorbell, but I assumed your staff was off for the night. What do you want, Vivian? Well, I brought these to you, these hideous figurines. Well, I was going to toss them. I thought you might want to donate them to charity. Because you’re going to need, possibly, a tax deduction.

I remember how much you enjoyed throwing Maggie out of her own house. Now, it’s my turn to throw you the hell out of mine! Unhand me!

God, give me strength.

Hey, Brady, how’s it going, kid? Hey, Dad, uh, good news. Listen, uh, no luck with Constantine, but the ISA found Grandfather’s briefcase in the plane wreckage and Shane brought it over to the hotel. Ah, that is good news. What was in it? Not sure. Uh, apparently Shane wanted Maggie to open it. Apparently? What, you didn’t talk to him?

No. He handed the briefcase off to somebody else.

Um, Um, Um,

Um,

Um,

Yeah, yeah.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

 

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What are you doing? I’m getting ready for bed. No, no, no, you’re not going to sleep on the chair. It’s okay, I’m fine. Come on. One night in that fleabag motel in Salem is one thing, but you know… We don’t even know where to begin looking for Susan, or if she’s even alive, or in London, so, you know, we could be doing this for a while.

Well, uh, we can only afford one room. And there’s only, uh, one bed, so, we don’t have much of a choice. Yes, we do.

Sleep with me.

You told me that your mother and Michaels came to you for help. And you turned them away. You still want to stick to that story? Where did you get these? Detective Hunter found them in the trash behind your apartment. Seems you were too focused on forging passports and not enough on the follow through.

So, I’m going to charge you with obstruction of justice, and aiding and abetting a felon, unless you give me the names on those fake passports. Now.

May I help you? No, I was just fixing your mouse like you asked me to. By using my phone. Oh, I wasn’t. You left it here and I was going to bring it to you just as soon as this driver update finished. How fruitful. Oh, I see you punched in some numbers on my lock screen. Well, my fingers must have hit the keypad as I picked it up.

Or maybe you were trying to hack into it, and why would I do that? I don’t know. Perhaps you were looking for evidence that I tried to have Ava Vitali killed, and if hypothetically I was doing that, not would I have found any. Why in the world would you think that I slept with Sean Brady? Oh, I don’t know.

Maybe because I ran into Eric downstairs and he thanked me for giving Sean a place to crash last night. Except I didn’t do that. Well, it could be Eric misunderstood. I don’t know. Could be. Except I asked you a question and you answered my question with a question of your own. So I’ll ask you again, yes or no, did you sleep with Sean?

So, where’d you sleep last night? Well, I, uh, I had too many at the pub, as you know, so, um, I slept off upstairs. Really? I was just with Eric and told him how worried I was about you. He didn’t mention you sleeping there.

That’s because I wasn’t with Eric.

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

So if you weren’t with Eric, then where’d you sleep? In Jada’s room. Jada? She wasn’t there. She, uh, she had an overnight shift at the station. And what about her sister? I thought she was staying there too. Talia, she was working late night at the hospital. Hmm. Well, I guess I’m, uh, just glad that you found somewhere safe.

Yeah. Do you have any idea how worried I was about you when I didn’t hear from you? I mean, you didn’t answer my calls, you didn’t return my texts. Listen, Belle, I am so sorry that I put you through that. I am. I… And I’m also, I’m sorry, I’m sorry about the things that I said last night. The things I remember and…

There’s some things that I don’t. What do you remember? I remember throwing your affair with EJ in your face, and, and that was, it was, it was unfair and it was wrong. Bella, I don’t deserve you. Don’t say that. We both made mistakes, and we’re gonna get through this together, okay? We just, we can’t let anything or anyone get between us ever again.

That’s insane! I barely even know Sean. Okay, but you do know that I’m a detective, right? Eric told me that he saw Sean coming downstairs earlier. And when I came in here, you were changing the sheets. And you can’t even look me in the eye and give me a yes or no answer.

Okay, yes, fine, you call me, okay? Yes, I slept with Sean. Are you happy now?

You want me to sleep with you? Sleep. In the bed. Next to me. Just sleep. I know you’re one of those chivalrous military guys, so I know you’ll be a perfect gentleman. I, uh… I appreciate the offer, but I prefer the chair. Wow, should I be insulted? Well, if you ever slept on a submarine wreck, you would understand.

It actually feels kind of nostalgic. Okay, well, suit yourself if you insist. And don’t worry, if one of EJ’s goons try to get in, You’ll be safe.

I walk in on my employee man handling my phone. Woman handling. And somehow you turn this into an inquisition about my behavior. Have you ever heard of consciousness of guilt? Yours? No, yours. You walk in on me, woman handling your phone, and… You just assume that I’m here trying to prove that you attempted to commit murder?

I mean, seems pretty telling to me. You certainly aren’t pardoning. I’ve been called worse. Well, I’ll have you know I set up a trap and you walked right into it. A trap? All those questions about Ava’s disappearance. Not exactly subtle, Wendy. So I left you alone in my office with my phone and let you hang yourself.

Which you have done with all due respect. You’re my boss, Mr. DiMera. The last thing I want to do is incur your wrath or ill will. And yet this wouldn’t be the first time you’ve been caught snooping around my office. Why would I even care if you had anything to do with what happened to Ava Vitale? I don’t even know her.

But you know her son quite well, don’t you? I can only assume your boyfriend Tripp put you up to this.

Fake passports. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Let’s not play around, Tripp. It’s obvious your passports were used to make dummy ones so your mom and Michaels could flee the country. Good luck proving that. Oh, I’ll prove it. I’ll prove it all right. And I’ll find Ava. The only question is whether or not you’re going to go down with her.

Or are you going to tell me where the hell she is?

No, I am not happy, Talia. I am not happy that you slept with my partner. I mean, what the hell were you thinking? I wasn’t, okay? I was drunk. I just don’t get it. When I saw you earlier at the hospital, you were so happy about your new job. You said things were going great with you and Chanel. Yeah, and that was before she dumped me to get back with her ex, Johnny DiMera.

What the

special delivery.

How do you know my mom and Nichols didn’t swipe those passports themselves? Right. Yeah. And forged new passports, new identities, new holographic seals in the alley? No. I don’t think so. See, what I think is that there was someone who had the tech savvy to forge those passports. And who also happened to be the owner of one of those passports.

Yeah. Wendy Shin. I understand you two are dating. No, you leave Wendy out of this. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Sorry I can’t do that, Tripp. You see, since you can’t seem to stop obstructing my investigation, I’m gonna have to haul Wendy in here and get the truth out of her.

Oh. You’re upset that I dumped your son for Tripp. And now you’re gonna punish me for it. On the contrary, I think Johnny’s quite fortunate to be rid of you. You, however, are not fortunate at all. Having left him for a man who’s too weak to do his own dirty work. I came for your information trip, didn’t even want me to…

So you admit what you were up to. Okay. Let’s just lay our cards on the table. You first. You blame Tripp’s mother for your mom’s death. You wanted revenge. Who else would have hired a hit woman to pose as a nurse, infiltrate Bayview, and attempt to commit murder? Do you know how many enemies Ava Vitale have?

Oh, but none of them is the lawyer representing said hit woman. Presumably so she won’t turn on you to the police. Everyone is entitled to a defense. What, so this wimpy assassin just happened to call you, of all people? Did you get your name off of Best Lawyers in Salem website? Wait, why would you even be on such a list?

You haven’t practiced law since… when? I offered my services pro bono. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Mr. DiMera? Nobody believes you’re innocent in this. How could they? But the past is of no concern to me. I’m worried about the future. I’m assuming you still have a hit out on Trip’s mom. I’m here to tell you, that is a big mistake.

And why

is that? Because Nobody did. What are you talking about? Your mother is still alive.

Is this some sort of special occasion I don’t know about? Do you remember? I promised to take you to the Rose Garden in Florence this summer after we got married. Yeah, I do. Well, I’m determined. We’re going next summer, but in the meantime, I figured I would bring the Rose Garden to you. Our time in Italy is the happiest I’ve ever been.

Me, too.

What’s wrong? Oh, boy. Oh, no, don’t tell me that you’re allergic to these. Not only in large quantities. Okay, you know what? I’m getting rid of them. I’m sorry. Oh, don’t you dare. Okay, I just need to take it. My histamine. Are you sure? Uh huh. Just give it a couple minutes to kick in. Okay, well, I hope you’re not allergic to these.

Ah, cannoli. Yeah, I would have got them from Sweet Bits, but I figured that would kind of ruin the surprise, so. We, um, we actually stopped selling them ever since Talia left. They were kind of her specialty.

Are you okay? Uh huh. Why? Well, it’s just you’ve… You made kind of a weird face just now when you mentioned Talia.

Look, are you sure about this? I mean I’m sure. I want to be with you, Johnny. It’s just I, I feel like I’ve blindsided Talia and, considering that she’s been known to go off the deep end, I just, I’m worried that she might do something rash or stupid.

I’m really sorry to hear about you and Chanel. Yep, me too. But I just don’t understand how you ended up with Sean. I mean, like you said, you hardly even know him. I guess that was the point. Okay, we ran into each other downstairs. And I was clearly hurt about Chanel, and he told me that he got in a big fight with his wife.

So, when the bartender cut us off, we came up here to keep things rolling. And, um, One thing led to another. And if it makes you feel any better, he woke up when he sobered up and he felt terrible. And I did too. I bet he did. I mean, my God, Talia. I mean, Sean is married. I mean, what the hell were you thinking?

You know, his wife got you out of jail. She took you on as a client when nobody else would. Yeah, okay, I remember. Okay, well, did you remember that when you were in bed with Sean? I mean, did she even cross your mind? No, honestly, no, she didn’t. Okay, all I wanted in that moment was to feel better. Look, I screwed up, okay, and really badly.

Sleeping with Sean was stupid and destructive. But I guess that’s not surprising, huh? I guess that’s just a pattern with me. Okay, I, I make horrible decisions and I hurt good people. And I guess that’s never gonna change.

I, I don’t, I don’t know what to say. Except I, I keep thinking that I’m gonna be better. That I’m gonna do better. And, and then, and then, I just, it’s like I can’t seem to break this cycle. Well, I’ve told you what I think you should do. But you don’t seem to want to get the help you need. So, where do we go from here?

You sure you’re okay? If I, uh, told you some of the places that I’ve had to sleep, you wouldn’t be worried right now. I’m not worried. It’s just, I can’t stop thinking that if it wasn’t for me, You wouldn’t be here right now. Nope, I would still be in the friendly confines of a mental hospital. Still. You’re not only risking sciatica, your life is now in danger because of me.

Ava, nobody forced me to run with you. I know. I

guess I… I am worried, because this just reminds me of when, um, When what?

There was a time a while back when, um, I needed a place to stay, and EJ’s brother, Jake, he let me crash at his place, and, uh, there was just one bed, just like here, and, So he ended up sleeping on the floor. Next morning he woke up, he could barely walk, and So I gave him a massage, and uh And what?

And before long we We fell in love.

My mother’s alive. What are you talking about? Tripp’s mother told us she remembered seeing Susan get out of the car after the accident. Oh, right, of course. Ava suddenly remembers several months later that my mother survived. Well, she remembered recently, after all that time in therapy. Oh. So how did you learn this, Wendy?

When did you talk to Ava? I… You saw her after she escaped from Bayview, didn’t you? And I’m guessing you know exactly where she is.

Look, leave Wendy out of this. I stole her passport, she had nothing to do with this. And you forged new passports? It wasn’t that hard. I watched a video on YouTube. Okay, look. I’m not after Wendy, or you for that matter. No, you’re after my mom because you still have some sort of grudge against her. I’m just trying to do my job.

Now, if she acted in self defense and someone out there still wants to kill her, then you should want her brought in here safely. Yeah, so you can bring her back to Bayview. No, so I can get her the treatment that she really needs. Look, you and I both know that EJ is the one who sent that person to kill her.

He’s not going to stop until… Until? Until my mom is dead. Yeah. So you gonna help me or not? Not until I know for sure her life won’t be in danger. You’re saying you know where she is? I didn’t say

that. Okay. I’m gonna have to contact D. H. Rask. So you’re gonna send her after Wendy? You leave me no choice.

You know, Cinema Paradiso is credited with reviving Italy’s entire film industry. Yeah, I remember the first time I watched it. It’s, uh, it’s actually what made me want to be a director. You Passionate about sharing a part of yourself. It’s like you with sweet bits, you know, once you really fall in love with

Something

All you don’t talk like that like making a bad decision is a pattern all you look at me look I am not judging you, okay? You were terribly hurt last night. You’ve been drinking and you did something very reckless.

I mean, you obviously regret it. I just hope that this doesn’t happen again. Right? No, no, of course not. Jada, look, Sean and I, we, we were just using each other. Okay, to lessen the pain that we were both experiencing. It meant nothing, and like you said, it was reckless. That’s why he and I decided to put it behind us and pretend like it never happened.

I tried to get professional help. For like 24 hours. And you said it made a difference, and then you stopped. Yeah, that’s because I thought that I could handle it on my own. And then I realized that… I realize that you’re right. This is, uh, it’s too big of a problem for me to handle by myself. So are you saying you’re ready to get help?

For real? I will go to AA. Yeah, you said that before, and then you didn’t go. Why, you don’t trust me? I want to. Sean, I really, really do. But I, I, I have to see it actually happening before I can believe anything’s gonna change.

I have no idea where Ava is. I mean, it’s not like she was gonna tell me where she was headed.

You know, Wendy, you are very good at your job. But when an employee proves herself to be untrustworthy, that employee has to go. Go where? Please, don’t ship me back to Fairbanks. Fairbanks? Oh, no, no, no. You won’t be working there or any DiMera office for that matter. Wait, are you saying… Yes, I’m definitely saying…

You’re fired.

T. H. Rask, it’s Commissioner Hernandez. Yes, I’ll hold. Please don’t. Don’t make that call. Change of heart? If I tell you… Where my mom and Michael’s are, do you promise to leave Wendy out of this? Well, you’re in no position to be making demands, but If you’re honest with me and your tip pans out I don’t see any reason to go after Wendy

So, where are they?

Oh no! Wait, Johnny, did I fall asleep? Yeah Yeah, you did. I guess you didn’t like the movie as much as I did. No, it’s great. It’s great. I just… I was up at 4 a. m. making dough, and plus the allergy pill. I’m so sorry. No, it’s fine. Hey, you should, you should go to sleep. Yeah, but it’s so early. It’s okay. Alright, I’m not offended.

I promise. Not how you thought that our date was gonna go tonight, huh? With me being a total drip. Hey. You could never be a drip. Besides, we got plenty more dates to go on.

Get some sleep.

You know the worst thing about this is? The thing that keeps upsetting me the most is? I just keep disappointing you. For the millionth time. It’s like I’m making you ashamed of me. No, no, no. I am not ashamed of you, Talia. Okay? Never. You are smart, you’re kind, you work hard, and I am so proud that you are a doctor.

I’m just, I’m just disappointed. I think I’m just disappointed in the fact that this is making you hurt. And yes, I am concerned about Sean and Belle. But you are my sister and my main concern will always be you.

I’m so lucky to have you. We’re lucky to have each other. Mmm.

Well, you should get some sleep. I’ll get out of here and let you get some peace and quiet. Yeah. Oh yeah. You’re gonna find someone that loves you. They’re gonna love you for who you are. Right? So just, just hold out for them, okay? Yeah. Okay.

Wendy, hey, what are you, what are you doing here? I thought you went to work. Well, I did. And then I got fired. What? Why? Okay, I know you told me not to go after EJ, but I had the perfect opportunity to hack into his phone. Or at least I thought I did. Turns out he set me up. You mean he caught you looking through his phone?

Yeah. Wendy, I’m so sorry. Well, you weren’t me, but I’m me, so I didn’t listen. Oh. I mean, I hate this has happened, but I know you’ll find another job. Somewhere where you’ll not be working for a murderous bastard. And somewhere they’ll actually appreciate your talents. I’ll worry about that later. There’s something else you should know.

What is it? I told EJ that your mom thinks Susan’s still alive.

So I assume things didn’t end well between you and Jake DiMera.

I guess you could say that.

The day we got engaged,

he died.

My God, I’m sorry.

And before his body was even cold, I did something incredibly stupid.

I let Gabby Hernandez persuade me into pretending that I was already his wife. Let me guess, for business reasons. Yeah, I got Jake’s boats on the board and that helped Gabby take over DiMera. And when EJ found out, he was none too pleased. Did he come after you? No, he tried to run me out of town. Oh, but I paid him back by kidnapping his mother.

That’s how I got into this whole mess.

And now I’ve dragged you into it with me.

It’s gonna be okay. Is it? Cause you risked your entire life for me.

And I couldn’t handle it if something happened to you too.

You know what? I will prove to you that I’m serious about recovery. Alright, I’ll, I’ll, I’ll go to the movie right now. I’ll call Brady and I’ll ask him to take me. No, he’s not, he’s not around. He and Alex went to Greece to look for information about your grandfather’s death. Greece? Yeah, apparently that’s where Victor was before his plane crashed.

Oh. You’re not upset that they didn’t ask you to go, are you? No, I mean, why would they? Why would they? Because you’re a cop and you’re his grandson? Yeah, but my life is also a big mess. And I’ve got to fix it. So…

Belle, will you go to a meeting with me right now? Of course I will. Thank you for asking me.

Oh, hey, Talia. Sean, bill? Yeah. Hey, how’d it go with Chanel? Chanel? Yeah. Did she like the flowers? Oh, uh, um, I, I don’t know. Chanel and I are seeing each other anymore. What? Yeah, she decided to get back with your nephew, Johnny. Oh God, and I just made it so much worse by bringing it up. I’m so sorry. No, no, please don’t apologize.

You’re the last person who should be sorry.

Son, I thought you had a date. Uh, she and I was tired, so we called it early. How was work? Fantastic. I fired your ex, Wendy. What? Why? I mean, she’s like the best employee you have. I hope it didn’t have anything to do with me. No, as a matter of fact, I caught her snooping at Tripp’s behest, just like she did for you.

Hmm. Snooping for what? She was trying to tie me to the event with Ava at Bayview, which of course I had nothing to do with. Of course, I’m sure. Can you believe she had the gall to advise me to call off the dogs? And then she claimed that Ava suddenly remembered that your grandmother was alive. What? I mean, do you think that could be true?

If only. But I… I don’t see how that could be.

I’m sorry. Okay, I know I wasn’t supposed to say anything, but I realized in that moment if EJ knew Susan might still be alive, she might stop going after your mother. What did he say? He didn’t believe me. Look, Tripp, I know I should have run up on you first. No, it’s okay. It’s okay. I, I was pretty close myself with telling Rafe when he was questioning me.

Wait, Rafe was questioning you again? About your mother? Apparently, the cops went through the garbage behind our building and they found the pages that we ripped out of our passports.

Oh, man. So are we in trouble? I don’t think so. Why not? Because I gave Rafe what he wanted. I told him where my mom and Michael’s are.

Sorry, did I wake you? Not at all. Liar. What’s up? Well, I have a strong lead about the whereabouts of Ava Vitale and Harris Michaels. Oh, you do? I do. So, how would you feel about going with me to London to check it out?

I’m not going anywhere.

And when this is all over, we’re gonna go home to Salem. We’re gonna get our lives back. Both of us. Assuming that, Hm. We don’t get caught by the cops, or EJ kills us. Tomorrow. We’re gonna look for Susie, and we’re gonna be one step closer.

Trust me.

Trust

you. Good night, Ava. Good night.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Look, just calm down. Okay? I know you’re worried, but as long as I’m representing you, we’re both safe. I’ll have to get back to you on that one. Right.

Hello. Mm hmm. I need to talk to you. I need a kiss. Oh, I think I just felt a little kick then. Oh, yeah. Welcome to my world. I think we have us a soccer player. Wonderful. Okay. Down to business. Good. You got my message. I need to talk to you as a consultant. Why? Professor Downe and I was wondering if you could do some research and suggest an acquisition that could give us a little boost.

Sure, I can get right on that, after you answer this question. Of course. Did you try to have Ava Vitale killed?

Just to see if there’s any sign of Martin. Well, at least there’s nothing about us in the local news. Unless they’re purposely keeping the media in the dark about us. So they can just close in. No one’s, no one’s closing in on us. Yeah? And you know that, Hal? Uh, what if somebody at Gatwick… Spotted those funny passports if we showed them.

They would have just picked us up right then and there. Oh, you know what? They’re probably staked out in front of the hotel right now. Okay, that’s not, that’s not how it works. We made it into the UK without Scotland Yard or the cops from Salem knowing where we are, okay? And tomorrow, we’re gonna start looking for Susan Banks.

Right. Here, in London. Which is a really big city, and we don’t have the first clue how to begin. Harris, what if we made a huge mistake?

So, have you heard from your mom? Did they make it to London? Radio’s silent so far. But she probably thinks it’s too risky to send me a message. I really hope she can find TJ’s mother. She’s gonna have to. Where she’s going to spend the rest of her life running away from EJ. But yeah, I’ll never be able to repay you for coming up with those fake passports.

I mean, you took a big risk for someone you don’t even know. But I know our son. And that’s enough.

Hey, I, uh, I got your message. What’s up? Well… Solon and I talked about still wanting to have a child and, you know, given her condition, we realized that adoption may be the best thing. Yeah, I can understand that. So that means you’ll help us through the process? I’m sorry, what? The adoption process. I mean, we’re gonna need a lawyer.

Oh. That’s why I asked you here. Yeah, I mean, yes. Sorry, yes. I, of course, I’ll represent you. Hey, what’s, what’s wrong? I mean, I can see that something is. Yeah, something’s wrong. Um, Sean didn’t come home last night.

Oh, God.

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

Hi. Oh

my god, no, no, no, no, no. Wait, what did we, and like, how did we? Listen, Talia, I’m, listen, I’m really sorry. I, I, this, you were, you were a very sweet girl, but this is, look, this is my fault. No, okay, it was me too. Oh. Oh my god, Belle. Oh.

Oh my gosh, six text messages and a voicemail. Gosh, she must think that I’m dead in a, in a ditch somewhere. Wait, didn’t you say that you guys got into like this big fight or something? Wait, I told you that? Yeah. Oh, what else did I tell you? Um, that she’s cheated on you in the past and… Oh, that I’ve never cheated on her.

Oh, man. Well, I guess I can’t say that anymore. Oh God, I can’t believe I told you that. I, I can’t believe any of

this. You told me that Sean was having sessions with mom again. That you thought he might be coming out of this. Yeah, and then Victor’s funeral happened. And because Sean now not only blames himself for Bo being in a coma, but also for Victor’s death, he’s started drinking again and then he went to work, or tried to.

He got suspended again? No, Rafe sent him home, but then he went straight to the square where he and I ran into each other and he was clearly drunk. And I, I said some things I shouldn’t have said. It’s been going on a long time. And understanding doesn’t seem to be the key with Sean. Yeah, well, I think I went too far.

I told him that I thought he should be in a residential facility. Or, rehab, and that’s really when everything went off the rails, and he said that I was trying to lock him away in a loony bin, and then he threw my affair with EJ in my face.

Oh, come on. Why would I plot Ava’s murder? Why wouldn’t you? The news said it looked like an attempted hit, and no one hates Ava more than you do. Ava was the one who did the shooting, and then she escaped with Harris Michaels. Okay, well, you skipped over the part about who Ava shot. And the first report said it was a nurse, but the administrator at Bayview said they’d never seen that woman before.

And the only person who knows about this mystery person is her attorney. You. Which leads me to believe that you’re defending her because you hired her to avenge her mother. By killing Ava.

I don’t understand, what mistake have we made? Oh, Harris. We have barely had a moment to breathe since we broke out of Bayview. Next thing I know, Tripp’s girlfriend’s making us fake passports, and now here we are, in London, without a clue as to what happens next. Yeah, well, we’re gonna figure that out. Oh, God, don’t, don’t you see?

I am in EJ’s crosshairs, and finding Susan is my only hope. And I’m here, in London. We are here, on another continent, based on a vision that I had. I don’t know what you’re trying to say. I am trying to say that you need to take me back to Bayview. Because clearly, I am crazy.

This is all good, Dave. Nice work. Hey there. Any news on the hunt for Ava? Yes. In fact…

Seriously? Yeah. That is coming straight from Officer Silver. I assigned him to check out chip drawings in the apartment building. And a neighbor thinks that they may have seen somebody in the alleyway behind the building at the same time that Ava and Michaels broke out of Bayview. I’m going to interview him.

No way. Not now. What? Tina, you were wearing the same thing that you had on yesterday. So you’re going to go home. You’re going to get some rest. I’ve got your notes. I’ll contact the witness. Okay. Boy, well, someone’s getting awfully bossy. Yeah, someone’s gonna get even more bossier if you don’t leave now.

Okay. Okay. I’ll leave. But, but, if you come up with something big, you promise you’ll call me. I am just as invested as finding Ava as you are. I’ve got you on speed dial. Okay. Right. Yeah.

If you find out anything Go! Now. If

you

hear anything, you’ll let me know? Definitely. You heading back to the apartment? I thought I’d go back to the office. The office is DiMera Enterprises. I know. Wendy, you’ve done enough. I don’t want you tangling with EJ. Tripp, your mom is in trouble. And the creep I work for sent an assassin to take her out.

Which proves how dangerous that creep is. Look, I’m just gonna do a little fishing. Okay, I’m a nobody to EJ, so he won’t even notice I’m there. And maybe I’ll find something useful. Wendy, please don’t do this. If you didn’t want me involved, you shouldn’t have made me care about you so much. Okay? So this is on you.

Hi. You better get that. Dr. Bronson.

Hello, commissioner Hernandez here. And what can I do for you? Commissioner? I need to see you down to the station. How soon can you get here?

I’m representing this woman because she was nearly killed by the same person who murdered my mother. I got to the hospital, and this poor woman was being grilled by a police officer, and she didn’t have counsel. EJ, why did you even go there in the first place? I thought she might need an attorney, and she did.

Well, never mind the fact that you’re running a major corporation and you haven’t practiced law in many a moon. My law license is still active and I am very motivated. Any enemy of Amos is automatically a friend of mine. Oh, honey, I can’t tell if you’re lying to me out of habits or to protect me. Oh, come on.

No. You come on. I think that you’re defending this woman because she knows something that you don’t want the cops to know. And excuse me, since I’m having your baby in a few short months, I think I deserve to know what that something is. Is

Sean? Well, it’s a notification that he just got all of the messages I’ve sent, so… At least I know he’s alive. But I… I don’t know why he’s not calling me back. You know, I don’t know why he’s ghosting me. Maybe he’s embarrassed. You know, for treating you so badly. I mean, drunk or not, he had no right to bring up PJ at all.

Yeah, but I did. I did. I cheated on him with a man that he despises. No, you and Sean were separated. That’s true. And I thought that, that Sean and I had gotten past all of this, but if you could have heard just the anger in his voice, what if Sean hasn’t actually forgiven me for my affair with EJ and what if that’s part of the reason he’s drinking?

Look, Sean, I’m not saying what we did was justified, okay? But I seriously think that you should give yourself a break. I mean, I know it must be really hard for you to get rid of that mental image of your wife being with another man. And you’re obviously still not over it. Yeah, but then I went and I threw it in her face.

And then I went and got even more drunk. And then… Then I cheated on her. Oh my god, listen, I… I lost control, and… Look, I feel like, I feel like I took advantage of you, and I’m so sorry, I… Can you please, please just stop apologizing? I lost control too. Okay, and it was all because I was hurt that Chanel broke things off with me.

And I’m the one who should feel especially bad. I owe your wife so much. Hold on, wait, you, wait, you feel bad? I mean, I’m, I’m the one, I’m her husband. I’m her husband, and she’s out there right now, she’s wondering, she’s waiting for a phone call back from me. Oh my god, I, I, I, what the hell am I gonna say? I mean, I don’t even know how I’m gonna tell her.

Uh, look, I know there’s a lot more for us to say, but I’ve gotta, I’ve gotta tell Belle where I’m at. So, is there any way that, you know, we could just not say anything about last night? Just until… Figure out what I’m going to say to her. Yeah, I, I understand. I won’t say a word. Thank you.

Well, I, uh, I should, I guess I should probably get going then. So, take care of yourself. You too. And, good luck.

Hey. When you see Sean, try to keep in mind that it was the alcohol talking last night, not him. Not the man you love. Unless he’s drinking again. Can I give you some advice? If he is drinking, do not engage. Tell him that you will not talk to him until he’s sober. It’s the best thing you can do for him.

Right. I’m gonna go get some air. And who knows, maybe he’ll call soon. Bye. Bye.

Sean? Where the hell did you come from?

Hey, look, you had eight hours on a plane to think about everything that could go wrong. Yeah, tell me what could go right. What could go right? We have nothing to go on except those woo woo visions that I had. And who knows if I’m gonna get another one. Wait, wait, wait a minute. You convinced me that those encounters were not hallucinations, that maybe Susan has ESP and wants to reach you.

Okay, but maybe you were right. Why me? Why me? I am the one who drove her off of the cliff into a ditch and almost killed her! I don’t know, maybe she thinks you owe her, Ava, but she sent you a signal that we should be looking for here. Right. A signal. Right. Okay. But, if Susan is so damn anxious for me to find her, then, then, why didn’t she give me an address?

Why did she just talk in code? I mean, if you hadn’t figured out that the big smoke meant London… We’d still be in Salem. Yeah, okay, but we’re not. We’re here, right now, and we’re ahead of the cops. Ava, look at me.

It’s gonna work out. I got a good feeling about it. Okay. Great. I guess we’ll go on that, then, I guess.

Susan better send me another sign real quick. Before her baby boy comes and finishes off the job.

Yes, Nicole, I’m, I’m, I’m sorry. I’m sorry for stonewalling you. But, as we discussed before, this is about protecting you. Oh, stop. We both know what’s going on here. And do I have to point out it’s going to be really inconvenient if I’m giving birth and you’re in prison? I’m not going to prison. No one knows what I’ve done.

Yeah, no one knows but your clients. And you’re probably Rafe’s number one suspect after what Ava did to Susan, and he could cut her a sweet deal in exchange for your hide. My client isn’t going to sell me out as long as I guarantee her safety. Nicole, I wouldn’t put at risk anything that we have for anything.

Mr. DeMare? It’s Wendy. There’s something I want you to see. I’m in a meeting. No, it’s… It’s okay. I don’t have any more questions. I’m gonna go do that research. Would you just try not to freak out? This acquisition is nothing to freak out about.

Love you. Love you.

So, what can I do for you? No, this shouldn’t take long. I just want to make sure I’m on track. Something.

This won’t take a long trip. I apologize for the inconvenience. Also, we’re having to track you down last night at the Salem Inn. Interrupting you and your girlfriend. No, it’s, uh… It’s all good. I’m glad you did. I I I needed to know what was going on. And, uh, I’m sorry I wasn’t much help. Actually, you were very helpful.

Yeah, and, uh, I’m hoping you can be helpful again. Yeah, I just, I want my mom to be okay. Yeah, it’s gotta be tough. Not knowing where she is.

But there’s good news. Yeah? Yes, we know for a fact that your mother was alive and well at 9pm last night. IPM. Mm hmm. Yeah. Thanks to an eyewitness who spotted her and Michael’s. Yeah. Got a real good look at them. Well, that’s, that’s good. Yeah. Funny thing, though. Uh, they were spotted in the alley right behind your building.

Really? Mm hmm. So I have to ask you. Have you seen your mom since we last talked?

Yeah. Yeah, I have.

Look, when I got home last night, my mom and Michaels were there. She and I talked for a little while, and then they left. How’d they get in? Fire escape. That explains why they were seen in the alley. Well, that must have been rough. Emotional, you know. Seen your mom after someone tried to kill her? Was. She asked for your help.

She knew I couldn’t do anything for her, and so she left. They left. Right. Any idea where they went? I can’t say. You can’t say, or you won’t say. Look, I haven’t lied to you, man. Can I go now?

You should tell the people who are covering for you at the hospital, that you’re held up. You’re not going anywhere. But I don’t have anything more to say. So you can sit here, and you can think about, um, the obstruction charges that you could be facing for failing to tell me that you saw your mother.

That should fill the time.

This is quite lengthy. Well, I was told to design a system wide upgrade. So I did. I wanted you to see it, because it could be really expensive. If you want modifications, I could redo the design. Hmm. But take your time. I’ll just read the spectator. Oh my gosh. What? Ava Vitale just escaped Bayview last night.

Yes, I know. Right. I guess the police must have told you right away. Because of your connection to her. Your unfortunate connection. I’m really sorry to hear about what happened to your mother. So am I. My mother was a very special person. So it says here the police don’t know where Miss Vitale is. That’s kind of scary, considering all the things she’s done.

But I guess you have good security here and at your house. Wendy, if you want me to give this my full attention, you’re going to have to stop talking. Hey,

Susan. It’s me. Ava. Here in London, and I, uh, I’d really appreciate it if you would give me another sign.

Something? Anything.

You see what I mean? Good, because you’re tired, you’re punchy, Ava, you didn’t close your eyes the whole flight, the whole flight! Okay, yeah, okay, and you’re not punchy at all, right? Because you can sleep wherever and whenever you want, because you’re not afraid of anything, because you’re an ex Navy SEAL!

And you’re a Vitaly, so act like one!

You wanna go first in the bathroom? Sure. I’ll do that. And when I come out, maybe you will stop sounding like a Broken record.

Belle is just here. She was worried about you. Uh, yeah, yeah. I’m just, you know, I’m just trying to figure out what it is that I’m going to say. You know, we’ve got a lot to talk about. We sure do. I’m assuming she told you about the fight. Yeah, she said you got into a fight and you didn’t come home last night.

So when you left her, you decided to come here? Uh, yeah. I mean, I, I, uh, I ran into Jada and I told her about the fight and, uh, she said to me that I could just crash here, so. Because she’s working for Laetia. And what about Talia? Talia? She lives here, too.

Belle! Oh, hey, Nicole. Uh, I, I was wondering about Sean. I, I know Victor’s funeral was yesterday. It must have been really hard on him. Yeah, yeah, it was. He’s not in good shape. I’m, I’m truly sorry. Thank you. How are you feeling? Gosh, you must be due soon, huh? January. I’m really excited. Aw, I bet EJ is really excited too.

Yeah, yeah, he’s, he’s on board with this baby and especially now since there’s no uncertainties. It was really hard on EJ and, and Eric. And now, I God, you know, I, I’m so sorry that Eric and Sloane lost their baby. Yeah, yeah, that was rough. How’s Eric doing? Oh, I was actually just with him. It sounds like he and Sloan are planning to adopt.

Oh! Oh, well, that’s great. Good for them. Yeah, you know, Eric’s always wanted a kid, and I’m, I just know he’ll be a wonderful father. Yeah, he definitely will be. Uh, yeah, yeah, no, I just remembered. Yeah, Talia, she’s, uh, you know, she’s working, too. Uh, at the hospital. You know, the late shift. Sorry, I’m just, I’m super slow right now because I drank a lot last night.

So this is what kept you from going home? Yeah. Oh. Hey, look, listen, I’ll, uh, catch up with you later, okay? Hey, wait up. Belle knows you saw her messages. She deserves to know you’re alright, or you’re gonna be. No, you’re right, you’re right. Listen, I’m gonna, I’m gonna text her right now. And, um, I’m gonna find out where she is and I’m gonna go meet up with her.

I hope the coffee’s fresh. I just pulled the night shift and I’m totally effed out. Coffee coming right up. Uh, you’re Talia, right? Jada’s sister, right? Right. Hey, I’m Sean Brady. Sean, I know your sister from the police department. Um, I spoke to her and she said it was okay that I crash. So, we don’t mind.

Yeah, no problem. Thank you so much. Oh, well, there she is. Bells, bells at the square. Um, yeah, wish me luck. Hey, you don’t need luck. Just make it right. Yeah.

Hey. I thought I told you to go home. I was on my way home. Uh huh. But then, my route, it took me by Tripp Johnson’s building. You know, where Officer Thompson picked up that lead on Ava’s whereabouts. Mm hmm. So, on a hunch… I decided to check it out myself. And?

What, did you… Did you find something?

You did a good job on this. I want some time to think about it, and then I’ll get back to you. Great. And… Hey, sorry if I overstepped before. What do you mean? Well, talking about Eva Vitale and your mother, it’s… None of my business. Don’t worry about it. I’m due in a meeting. May I hold onto this? Sure.

Oh, there is one thing you could do for me. Name it. My mouse is acting up. Probably just needs a new battery or something. I’ll take care of it. Thank you.

God. He forgot his phone.

Wow. Hey. Eric. Hey. I heard about what happened with Sloane. That she had a miscarriage. Yeah. I am so sorry. Thank you. I really appreciate you saying that. And I also appreciate you for what you did for Sean last night. I mean, you must have noticed he was drunk. Well, if he didn’t explain it to you, maybe he did, but he and his wife, they kind of got into a fight last night and, uh, he didn’t want to go home.

That was really cool of you to let him stay here. Uh, yeah, right, no, no problem, no problem at all. Um, but speaking of crashing, I’m, I’m pretty beat, so I’ll, I’ll see you.

Okay. Well, I’ll tell Eric you were asking about him. Oh, gosh, no. Don’t, don’t do that. I, I’m just happy that Eric and Sloane were able to get past what happened. Sean. Hey, Nicole. Hi. Um, I’m, I’m really sorry about Victor. He, he was a true original. Yeah, that’s for sure. I appreciate it. Well, bye.

Hey. How you feeling? Hungover. Yeah, I bet. So, where’d you sleep last night?

What the hell? You’ve got to be kidding me. What?

Tell me you didn’t sleep with Sean Brady.

Sorry to keep you waiting. It’s okay. Give me a chance to think about those obstruction charges you tried to scare me with. I decided it all. You had to be bluffing. I mean, what jury is going to convict me for trying to protect my own mother after a hit woman tried to kill her? That’s a good point. I forget the obstruction charge.

Yeah. Turns out I didn’t need it. What does that mean? It means you could now be facing the charge of… Aiding and abetting a villain.

Go ahead. Open it.

Maybe, just maybe, Ichi treated messages with that woman who tried to kill Eva. God, I just need to get past this lock screen. May I

help you?

What are you doing? I’m, I’m getting ready for bed. No, no, no. You’re not going to sleep on the chairs. It’s, it’s, it’s okay. I’m, I’m fine. Come on. One, one night in that fleabag motel in Salem is, is one thing. But you know, we don’t even know where to begin looking for Susan, or if she’s even alive, or in London.

So, you know, we could be doing this for a while.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Ow! What the hell was that for? Oh, don’t you play innocent with me. I just told you what it’s for. You’re cheating on me with your wife! I don’t even know… What are you talking about? Oh, please spare me. I just got an earful from Gwen. She wouldn’t shut up about how the two of you have been shagging your asses off.

Like you’re a horny Popeye who just had a huge serving of spinach. So stop playing the coquettish ingenue and tell me the truth. Have you been playing me this whole time?

You already knew that Dimitri was cheating on you with Leo? Of course I knew. Matthew may be a world class dissembler, but those lustful looks that he’d been giving my husband… I’d have to be bloody brain dead not to have noticed. So, you’ve been dissembling as well? Pretending to be in love with Dimitri when you knew all along that he was crazy for Leo?

Actually, no.

I admit, yes, in the beginning I was, um, a bit of a naive fool. When Dimitri proposed to me and I agreed to be his wife, I thought, Wow, your luck has really turned around. You’re about to marry the man of your dreams.

But I am relieved to report that I have jumped off of cloud nine and I have landed safely. And I’m now back to being my cynical, misanthropic

self.

Why was my grandfather meeting with you, Mr. Malonis? Oh, please, call me Constantine. So your grandfather did not tell you? No, he did not. He only told his wife that he was going to visit his son, Bo. But Bo doesn’t live anywhere near Greece. Which is why we were shocked when his plane went down in the Mediterranean.

Obviously, he didn’t want any of us to know where he was. What was he doing in Greece?

Room service.

Finally, it’s about damn time.

Oh my god!

Daddy! Like

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

I have to say, it feels pretty damn good to have Dimitri right where we want him. Thanks to us brilliantly uncovering his deep, dark secret. A torrid love affair with his wife’s best friend? And pretty soon, we will have DiMera in the palm of our hand. But why stop there? Why not make Dimitri hand over the von Leuschner money, too?

Playing you? Leo, what does that even I just told you! Gwen spent all morning rhapsodizing about your round the clock shagging, going into excruciating detail, bragging about positions I’ve never even heard of. Me! It’s a lie. She’s lying. She’s lying. Wait, what? The only physical intimacy that Gwen and I have shared in the last 24 hours is when she handed me the TV remote last night.

My hand grazed hers for a second. That’s it. Really? Yes, really. I swear.

Well, that doesn’t make any sense. Why would she lie? So when did you figure all this out?

Well, when Leo turned up to my honeymoon. Claiming that he was there for some secret Madonna concert. It is the Madonna concert. You know, that’s when I started to get suspicious. Matty fancies himself a material girl, but it was all too coincidental. Huh. But before that? No idea? No. As I said, yes, I was a naive fool.

But then once my suspicions were aroused, I started to look back on all the little moments where I should have bloody been one of the two of them. Should have seen them for the lying snakes that they are.

Daddy! Oh my God! It’s so good to see you! It’s been forever! Come here. It’s so good to see you too, my darling. But, what are you doing here? I was told Alex and Brady were staying in these rooms. Yeah, yeah, they are. They should, um, actually be back soon. And you didn’t ask my question. And it doesn’t take an experienced ISA agent to figure out what a father would instinctively know.

This is about Brady, isn’t it?

I did not plan to meet with Victor. He just appeared and I could tell something was very wrong. Well, he’s been really upset about his son. Yes, his son. So sad. He just come from a visit with him and it was evident the trip was very difficult for him. Yeah, I’m sure. We are all friends, I’ve known Victor for a long time.

So I could tell something else was on his mind. Something other than his ailing son.

So you want to go after Dimitri’s inheritance, too? Why not? I mean, we’ve got him right where we want him. And the best part is, if we get our hands on that full militia money, we wouldn’t have to share it with any single member of this family. We get the whole enchilada, baby.

Well… When Leo turned up to my honeymoon with that flimsy, ridiculous excuse about being there for a Madonna concert, that’s when my antenna went up, and as I said, that is when I started to think about all the little moments. Ah. Please, do go on. Well, the first one was right after we got engaged. It’s just I haven’t heard from Dimitri today, which is a bit odd, don’t you think, given that we, we just got engaged.

Oh! Oh my god, my team,

I

made

a terrible mistake. a confession to make. The reason you haven’t heard from Dimitri is because… He’s been with me. So… Leo told you that Dimitri was with him? Yeah. And he very quickly explained why. And it made sense at the time. Once, I was on board with the wedding. Your groom shared with me a capital S secret.

What kind of secret? Well, it’s really more of a surprise. For you. For the wedding. You know, but as strange as I thought it was, two of them concocting this surprise for my wedding, I just kept telling myself I was being paranoid. Like all those times when Dimitri wasn’t interested in making love to me.

Well, even if nothing happened between you and Gwen last night, you can’t say that the two of you never… Ugh, God, I can’t even say the word. Which is shag, by the way, because that’s what Gwen claims you do night and day, 24 7, round the damn clock. Leo, she is my wife. She does believe that we got married because of love.

If she and I never shagged, well then I suppose that jig would be up, don’t you? Fine. I get it. At least tell me you’re not enjoying it. Hey. I swear to you, I am sleeping with Gwen out of obligation. I’m sleeping with you because… Because what?

Because I love you.

But if we take Dimitri’s shares and his inheritance, what incentive does he have to keep us quiet? I mean, it’s Blackmail 101, Gabby, right? He has to have something to lose in order for us to exploit him. I hate to say it, but you may be right. Maybe. I mean, there has to be something we can do to get a bigger payday out of this.

Look, I love the way your mind works, but in this particular instance, I don’t think we can afford to be greedy.

And not only was Dimitri just completely uninterested in having sex with me, but… He was the very first person that I went and told. I’m sorry, honey. I really do think you’re overreacting. That’s easy for you to say. You’re not the one that he refused to have sex with.

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

God, that Matty, that… Clever little schemer that he is. He did manage to mollify me. Somewhat. Just as he did when I walked into the room to find Dimitri in his underwear. Well, this all must seem rather strange, Gwen, but I assure you there is a perfectly reasonable explanation. I’m waiting. Well, I… Dimitri does not have a proper suit for tomorrow, so I convinced him to try on one of mine.

You have plenty of suits. Yeah, but they’re also blah. I told him he needed something special, something with a little pizzazz. You know, after all, this is a once in a lifetime event. I knew Matthew wasn’t being completely honest with me, but… I thought I knew why. Come on. You honestly thought that I would believe that he would fit into one of your medium suits?

This one’s a woman’s large. It doesn’t matter what size it is. You didn’t want to see Dimitri in it, you wanted to see him out of it. What are you suggesting? That you wanted to see my fiancé in his underwear. I’m

so stupid, aren’t I?

I know that Matty is always keen to have crushes on straight men, but still I should have… I should have known. Especially when Matthew Perry came into the picture. What?

You… You love me. Me? I do. I suppose I only realized it when that lawyer Roth said he could see it so clearly. These feelings that I have for you, they go so far beyond just attraction or lust. But it’s those two, right? Yes. Yes, it is those two. But what I feel for you is so much more than that. It’s missing you when you’re not around.

It’s missing your smile and your laugh. It’s wanting to share everything with you. Above all, it’s… It’s just wanting to make you happy. So yeah, I think it bears repeating Leo Stark, I love you.

I love you too, Dimitri.

I knew you hadn’t really gotten over Brady, but to chase him all the way to Greece? Who says I chased him? Okay, fine, I followed him. But that’s because I’m helping him and Alex with their investigation. What, you don’t think I can? No, I, I know you can. But apparently they don’t want your help or else you’ll be out investigating with them right now.

Oh, Theresa, darling, you are a brilliant young woman with a good heart. Which is why I hate to see you chasing someone who doesn’t appreciate that. If Brady can’t understand how wonderful you are, then he doesn’t deserve you.

So, my grandfather seemed worried about something besides Bo. Yes, he did. But when I asked him about it, he got very quiet. Quiet? Um, Constantine, my grandfather called his attorney. To have his will destroyed. This was this was surprising to us. We didn’t know anything about that. Did he mention anything about that to you?

No, he did. Don’t say anything to me about the will.

But he did mention a letter.

So what did Victor say about this letter? Only that it was of great importance to him. Then we shared a toast of Ouzo, and he left. Excuse me for a moment. Of course.

That can’t be it. Can it? I mean, do you really think Uncle Vic came all the way out here just because of some letter? I don’t know. I mean, we both know when, when that man said… His mind is something, I mean, I was, hold on a minute, Kayla, Kayla told me when Bo had her captive in that wine cellar at Granddad’s old house that she found a box full of old letters.

Look, I know you’re right, Daddy. Okay, I, I know Brady doesn’t deserve me, and I should have enough self respect to move on, and believe me, I’ve tried, you know, I’ve had other boyfriends, and I just can’t help comparing them to Brady, and None of them measure up. Oh, darling. But I’m trying to play it cool, okay?

I swear, actually. Brady thinks I have a thing for Alex. Which I don’t. Alex Kiriakis? He’s Brady’s cousin. Yeah, so? Well, that rather depends on how far you’re planning to take this deception. Well, I don’t know how far I’m planning on taking it, and… You know, Alex is really cool, so he’s handsome, and he’s rich, and it’s not like it’s going to be a hardship for me.

Sweetheart, if, if you’re planning to have a fling with Alex just to make Brady jealous… I’m not really planning anything, I’m just…

I just thought, I don’t know, I’m holding on to hope, you know? That maybe, maybe if Brady spends enough time with me, that he’ll realize I’ve changed, and… And then maybe he’ll fall in love with me again.

Matthew Perry. Chandler himself. Oh, I didn’t tell you. How? How? I can’t help but wonder, who is this mystery man who’s lying in bed naked waiting for you? According to your contacts, his initials are MP. Ah, yes, MP. Matthew Perry. What? The actor from Friends? What? Who? Chandler? No, no. It’s a guy that I met on matchup.com.

I know what you were thinking. Oh no, I don’t think you wanna know what I’m thinking. Okay. Yeah. Fine, fine. But see, at that point I thought that Matti had his secret mp, and so I just stopped. I stopped worrying about Dmitri and Matt. Even after he interrupted our wedding? And then, on our honeymoon? Why are you here?

Feel free to answer any time now. You mean, why did I fly here, to Iceland, to surprise you, on your honeymoon? Yes. Well, isn’t it obvious? No, I’m afraid not. I’m here… Because today is Madonna’s birthday! Hang on, so you’re telling me you flew all the way out here to Iceland to tell me that it’s Madonna’s birthday?

Would that be strange? That would be insane! Well, yeah, because I did not come just to share that news, obviously. Hello? Matty? Why did you come? Because it’s, it’s, it’s… The thing is, it’s not just any old birthday. Madge is turning 65! Quite a milestone, right? And to celebrate, she’s giving a super secret concert.

Private show, very exclusive. I believed him at first. But then… But the more I thought about it, the crazier it seemed. I mean, I had no proof that anything was actually going on.

But that is until the very next day, when… Leo came into my room. So, torn up over Victor’s death, or he was pretending to be, where I popped out to get him a nice little Icelandic treat. And then, when I came back… Stop it, stop it, stop! Stop! What if Gwen comes back and finds out you were as gay as a Cher collage?

You can tell her you were just consoling me.

I’ll be quick.

And then I remembered. The day I found Leo hiding someone in his room.

What was that? What was what? Noise from the loo. I didn’t hear anything. You liar. You’re hiding somebody in there, aren’t you?

And I know exactly who it is. You were

sexting with yesterday. Remember, I saw your phone. I saw his initials, MP. As in Matthew, not the actor from Friends, Perry. 20 points. MP is not coming out because he doesn’t want you to see him. Why not? Because he’s a married

man. So then I knew the truth. MP did not stand for Matthew Perry. Ah, Sono Chandler. Knives Chandler. Okay, so what does MP stand for?

You’re seriously considering marrying that Teutonic twat? You don’t even know him. Well, enough, in the biblical sense. You slept with him once, and now you’re thinking of tying the knot? What, does he have a magic penis?

Magic penis? Exactly.

Okay, now that that’s settled. What did you mean before you said we’ve got trouble? Ah, yes, right, that. Okay, um, brace yourself. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. She’s carrying your child, isn’t she? The two of you are going to be bound together forever, raising Dimitri Jr. No, stop, please. Gwen is not pregnant. Oh, okay. Thank God.

So what kind of trouble do we have? Gabby and Stefan have discovered that we’re sleeping with each other behind Gwen’s back, and they’re using it as blackmail. You’re joking. That’s a joke. You’re joking, right? Not joking. Well, how could this be? We have been so careful, so discreet. How could they have figured it out?

Well, apparently they found a hotel receipt, proof that I paid for your room in Iceland. But that doesn’t mean that we’re… And they got that little brat Rachel to confirm it. Apparently she… Saw us having a little sleepover.

I covet the von Leuchtturm money as much as you do. But I think we need to stay focused on our original plan. If Demi When Dimitri gives us his shares, and Megan’s, Gabby, we are going to have a huge block at Temera. And we will almost be guaranteed to be the deciding votes. So if Chad and EJ want any kind of say They will have to kowtow to us.

I admit, the idea of EJ groveling for our approval does have a certain appeal. And if we’re strategic about it, maybe, eventually, we could run the whole company. And then… We can kick E. J. out on his ass.

Dammit, there are far too many nosy, obnoxious children wandering around that house. Right, well we probably should have recognized that before taking any chances because now Gabby and Stefan are demanding that I hand over my shares at DiMera plus my mother’s or they’re gonna tell Gwen everything. Well now I am officially schvitzing.

Please don’t tell me they want your inheritance too. Oh no, God no. Just the shares. Although I’d much rather not part with those either. What are we gonna do? There’s only one thing we can do. Which is? Kill them. Kill them right. Wait, what?

So… After I walked in on Dimitri and Leo on my honeymoon, no less, I finally knew the truth.

But I couldn’t figure out who I was angrier with, my so called husband or my so called BFF.

Angry and terribly hurt, as I’m sure you can imagine. Yeah. And I’m sure that flight home was so much fun. Oh, that was um, that was definitely a challenge to sit there for 10 bloody hours and not be able to strangle them both.

You know, as angry as I was, I couldn’t figure out why Dimitri wanted to marry me. Only to have an affair, right afterwards, with a man.

That is, until we came home here after our honeymoon and Dimitri sent me up there to unpack and he stayed down here with you. So you mean that you decided to do some eavesdropping, yes, Kristen?

Ah, correction. When we get our windfall, baby. Yeah, and that is only gonna happen if you convince this barrister, Mr. Roth, that your marriage is legit. Trust me, I can handle it. Mmm, can you? Because he called just before you got here and he was very eager to see you and Gwen. So, nephew, how are you gonna keep Gwen from finding out about your being an heir to a fortune when she has to meet the man who holds

the So you were planning to split the von Leuschner money with Dimitri all along, were you? Gwen, I had no idea that Dimitri was betraying you. Well, at least not to the… Egregious extent that he was. You see, he told me that he was sleeping with Leo only to keep him quiet. Hang on, Sue. You’re, you’re, you’re telling me that, that he doesn’t have feelings for Matty?

That he was just sleeping with him out of desperation? Oh, no. No, no, no, I, that’s what I thought, um, but Dimitri just told me that wasn’t the case. That what he and Leo have, it’s the real thing, they’re in love.

Right, kill Stefan and Gabi, ha ha, good one. Oh, I’m serious. You can’t be serious! Stefan is your uncle, Gabby’s your aunt, I think. So what? I barely know these people. Still, that’s like two less gifts under the Christmas tree. Not to mention it’s a horrific and heinous crime. Not to mention that not only am I schvitzing right now, but I actually feel like my head is going to explode, and oh god, you can’t be serious.

You are serious. Leo. You forget who I am. I nearly took out half of Salem with a peacock, remember? Yes, but that was during your world domination era. You’ve moved on to your gentleman of leisure, afternoon sex, and reality TV era. Right. As far as you’re concerned, I have. And you really don’t have to be any part of this, okay?

But I will be damned if I’m gonna let two newly discovered relatives ruin everything for me. So I’m gonna do everything I possibly can to make sure they do not. But all you have to do is sit back, keep your mouth shut, and pray. As

much as I wanted that Von Leuschner money, if we use Demetri’s shares to take control of DiMera, then we won’t have to share the pie. Or the enchilada. Or anything else. The whole buffet will be ours. Do you really think that Uncle Victor came all the way here for a box of letters? I mean, the guys probably sent hundreds of letters.

Well, these were obviously important to him. Alex, there were a bunch that he had sent to Caroline Brady. And she sent them back to him, marked return to sender. She was Bo’s mother. They just came from seeing Bo. My apologies. Oh, no, please, please. Uh, you have a business to run. We came unexpected. There is no need for an invitation when family is concerned.

And that’s what Victor was to me. So you, his nephew and grandson, you are both always welcome here. And if there is anything you need… Um, actually, actually, we were talking and we think that that letter that was very important to him might be at his childhood home. You said you knew the family. You know where that home is?

Of course I do. Victor liked me to keep an eye on things for him. I would be happy to show you. Listen, just like you look after me, Daddy, I gotta look after you, and that briefcase has got to go. I’m gonna order you a new one ASAP. No, no, no, this isn’t mine, it’s Victor’s. They, um, they recovered it from the wreckage.

They established it was in no way related to the crash, and that it just contains his personal effects. Some papers of a personal nature, legal documents, that sort of thing. I thought maybe Alex and Brady would like to take it home to Maggie. Yeah, yeah, of course. Uh, and I’ll, I’ll make sure they get it.

You can just leave it here with me. And hey, you know what? I ordered room service. There’s definitely plenty to share with you. Oh, I, I’m sorry, sweetheart. No, I, I really can’t stay. But please remember what I said about finding a man who, who’s worthy of you, hmm? Yeah. Okay, from here. Oh, I love you, Jelly Bean.

I love you too, Daddy.

Are you thinking what I’m thinking? That we don’t make an appearance at work and we get into that bed and not come out for the rest of the day? Why don’t we put that off until tomorrow? Because I think we’ve given Dimitri enough time to stew. Why don’t we go in for the kill? Yes ma’am.

Stefan.

I better go. Wait, you’re gonna go do it now? What? No, not now. No, these things take lots of planning. But I should go see Gwen. Wouldn’t want her to get suspicious. I’ll see you, my love.

Yeah.

See you.

Okay, that’s it. Okay, where are you going? Where do you think I’m going? I’m going to confront my so called husband. Okay, hold on. No, no, no, no, no. I think that you and I should turn the tables around on him. What are you saying? Are you saying that you and I should join forces and get back at Leo and Dimitri for what they did to us?

What do you say?

I

say let’s get him.

This was the wine cellar you mentioned. Do you have any idea where the letters might be? Kayla said that they were in an old metal box. Could this be it right here? Could be. I don’t know, I don’t see anything else.

Well, hopefully. This will give us all the answers that we need.

Empty.
