THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yeah, baby. I’ll pick you up in plenty of time to get to the funeral. I love you too, sweetness.

Yeah. Too early? No, no. Fine. Come on in. How you doing, man? Any news on your granddaughter? Not a word. It’s obvious that Kristen has got her. We just don’t know where the hell she took her.

May I help? No. Looks like you got your hands full anyway. It’s okay. These are actually just pictures of Abe on taking over the church for the funeral. But I thought, I thought that sounded helpful. No, you don’t have to. You don’t have to. Honestly, I’m, I’m, I’m just doing this to, Do something to keep me from going crazy.

It’s kind of pointless, don’t you think? Since we both know exactly where Rachel is anyway.

If this is the police again, let me remind you, you will need another warrant if you want to come in. Kristen, Kristen, it’s me. Oh my God. Lonnie? Oh my God. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Mama, do you need any help? Well, baby, can you send Lonnie in, please? Oh, well, she just went out to run an errand. But, why don’t you let me help you?

Oh.

Mama. Oh. Oh. Oh, baby, no, uh uh. Don’t, don’t you start crying, too. No. And I’ll try not to. And you know, I can dole out tissues just as well as Lonnie can. Thank you. Oh. I just did my makeup for the third time. Oh. If I can’t make it through getting ready, how else am I going to get through Abraham’s funeral?

Good morning, sunshine. Here’s your breakfast and a soft boiled egg just the way you like it. Doesn’t Paulina take good care of you, darling? You are not. Paulina. You are not my wife.

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

there anything I can do to help? Mmm, wish there were. Cops have searched that mansion from top to bottom. They got nothing. Alright, so assuming Kristen is hiding Rachel. What do you think her endgame is? Take the kid and run? Eh, it’s doubtful. If she were to blow out of Salem for good, that would mean that she is ready to give up on Brady.

I don’t see that happening. But I’ve got her under surveillance 24 7 just in case. Well, that’s good. Yeah. Can I get you a cup of coffee? You look like you could use it. Oh, thanks, partner. Yeah, black and strong.

Did you get any sleep at all last night? No, not really. I think I nodded off for a minute or so, but every time I did, I had a nightmare. About Rachel? No. About Abe.

Second time, I had the exact same dream. Second time. On the dock, Abe is right there, same place where he fell into the water. And he just looks at me and then he turns around. Disappears. That shook me up too. Yeah, yeah, um.

I’m gonna say something that sounds a little bit out there. I’m starting to wonder

if maybe somehow it was more than a dream.

Mama, you have always been so strong for me. How about you let me be strong for you now? Especially since Big Mama can’t be here. Just looking at you gives me strength, my precious girl. Well, I’m here for you, Mama, always. And, I just want to say that I am so, so very grateful for the man that Abe was to you.

The way he loved and respected you. And I’m also grateful for, for what he meant to me. He was so kind and caring and, well, I had a dad again. After so many years without one. Yes. Yes you did. We both were so, so very lucky, weren’t we? To have that wonderful man in our lives. I

guess maybe I’m not as strong as I thought I was. Oh, baby. We just have to lean on each other. Okay?

Oh, Abraham, that’s just crazy talk. Of course I’m Paulina. Who else would I be? I saw her picture. And it wasn’t you. Abraham, you’re not a well man. Your memory’s very fuzzy. But you know what? This medicine will get you all cleared up.

No. No, no, no. I, uh, I don’t want it. I don’t want it. Ah, no, no, please. Ah!

I know you believe that Kristen is behind Rachel’s disappearance. I don’t believe it. I know it. I know it. I mean, think about it. I mean, if, if she was actually missing, why would Kristen demand a warrant from the police in order to search the house? Hmm? Yeah. Yeah. I understand what you’re saying. And if Kristen really believed that her daughter had run away or had been kidnapped…

She would leave no stone unturned to find her. Exactly. Exactly. She would be out here. She would be searching. Instead, I’m out here running around in circles while she’s sitting on her ass at the DiMera mansion right now. Honey, I can’t believe that you’re free. How did you manage that? Well, I’m not exactly free.

I’m out on furlough. So I can attend my dad’s funeral. Oh, sweetheart, I am so sorry about Abe. He was such a wonderful man. Yeah, he was the best. Anyway, um, I, I can’t stay long. I’m just, I had to see you. Especially when I heard that Rachel was missing. I know. It’s so awful. I mean, Brady made her go to that damn stupid camp.

And, of course, she hated it and she ran away. And, and now she’s disappeared into thin air and I’m just, I’m so worried about her. Uh huh. What? Uh huh. You wouldn’t by chance be lying to me, would you? Sister?

Theo, come in, come in. Hey, Chanel. Hello. Oh, good, good. You’re here. I asked Theo to go with us to the funeral. Oh, oh. I hope it’s okay. Of course it is. Why would you even ask? I’m glad we’re all going together. That’s right. Well, actually we’re not. What? Why not? Because I want you to swing by the Johnsons and pick up those pictures of Abraham.

Oh, but I can just text them to bring the pictures. Please! Just do that for me, okay? Theo and I will meet you at the church. Okay, um, sure.

Okay, love you, okay? Alright, I’ll see you guys there.

Uh, Paulina? I’m not great at reading social cues, but um, did you just send Shenandoah on purpose? You might be better at reading those cues than you think. Because, uh, oh, yes, yes, honey, I did. Theo, there’s something I want to talk to you about.

So, you think this dream was… More like a premonition.

I don’t know, man. I don’t know, maybe I’m just unsettled by Abe’s death, by all these unanswered questions. Especially coming off what we just went through with Doc and Kayla. Yeah, man, I hear you. You remember I had that dream about Kayla? She was still alive, trying to reach me? Yes, exactly. That’s exactly what this feels like.

Like, like somehow Ibrahim is trying to reach out, is asking for help. So do you think he might still be alive? It’s possible, isn’t it? I mean, think about it. Think about it. We don’t know how he disappeared from the hospital. We don’t know where the hell he was the whole time he was gone. We don’t know how he got down to the pier or why he went into the water.

Now obviously, we can’t say anything to Pauline about this until we have something concrete to go on. But none of this stuff is adding up. Okay, I agree. But dude, listen, we’ve been over this evidence a million times. Buddy, we just gotta do what we do best, and that is we go back to the beginning, from the moment that he disappeared from that hospital, we retreat every step here, because partner, we gotta be missing something.

Okay, we do what we always do, we go right back to the beginning, we start with what we know. And that is… There’s King’s statement.

Now, Abe, sugar, you just let that medicine do its work on you, and all of those thoughts will seem like a bad dream. I am your Paulina, darling, and I love you.

Who is it? It’s me. What are you doing here? All of our business is done. Why are you so freaked out to see me all of a sudden? What’s going on? Oh my God. What have you done to him?

Do you really think that Kristen has Rachel hidden in the mansion? Mm hmm. I know it. I know it. I feel it in my bones. I know it. You know, in fact, what am I doing out here? I’m going to the DiMera mansion right now, and I’m going to get the truth out of Kristen once and for all. I’m, I’m, I gotta go. No, Grady, you can’t do that.

You can’t.

Shirley, after all that time we spent together in the convent, you wouldn’t break the ninth commandment. And which one is that again? Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. In other words, bitch, don’t lie to your best friend. I’m not lying to my best friend. Look, the police came and searched this place top to bottom.

If Rachel was here, they would have found her, wouldn’t they? No offense to my former colleagues, but if anyone PD, it’s you. I am flattered you think so, but Rachel is not here. Okay, then why aren’t you out looking for her? I, I doubt that you would be here shooting the breeze with me if Rachel was really missing.

You know kidnapping is a crime, right? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, okay, hold on, just, let’s just say, theoretically, I had her. I mean, how could that be kidnapping? She is my daughter. You cannot be this stupid. You are the non custodial parent, Kristen. Listen to me. Hey. You just got out of prison, and I have to go back inside later today.

Little advice? Not that you’re asking for it. Enjoy your freedom. Find a way to legally enjoy time with your daughter. Yeah, but I cannot, um, I can’t even see my daughter unless Brady… I know. Unless you work things out with Brady. Yes. You can do that. Kristen, you both love Rachel. So start there. Take that first step.

Okay? If, if you know where Rachel is, now is the time to tell Brady.

So, what did you want to talk to me about? Well, sweetheart, um, I know you’re planning on, uh, giving the eulogy at your, your father’s funeral. And, you know, I think that’s… So brave of you, especially since Abe told me how much you hate speaking in public. I’m just not good at it. Oh, that’s not true. You did an amazing job delivering his speech on Juneteenth.

I got through it, anyway. Oh, no, you did better than that. Um, the thing is, uh, Theo, today is going to be a very emotional day. And, well, if it’s too hard for you to give a speech, I… Well, I just don’t want you to feel the pressure of anyone else’s expectations. I don’t really. I just… Well, I want to give the speech for my dad.

That’s what helped me get through the Juneteenth one. And, yeah, it’s gonna be hard, but I’m used to it. I’ve done hard things my whole life. And you’ve done them very well, Theo. Thanks. But I am really nervous about today, so… Paulina, could I ask you a favor? Anything, baby. Do you mind if I practice my speech on you?

For the Juneteenth one, I practiced with Chad, and maybe practicing would help. I I just don’t want to upset you, though. Upset me? Oh, well, if I could get out all my tears right now, right here in my own home, I’d be very grateful to you. Okay.

Um, I don’t usually like hugging people when I’m feeling upset, but can I hug you? Oh, of course. Oh, come here. You come here, honey. Oh.

Okay, Rafe and Eli both talked to Nurse King and her story’s been consistent. She said she, uh, went in to check on Abe. Noted that he was confused and she left. When she came back into the room, he was gone. He had none of the hospital cameras picked up any of his movements. Which makes it kind of hard to believe he was just wandering around out there.

You know what I feel?

It feels to me that someone had moved Abe in that hospital. We knew exactly where all the cameras were. It may be someone who worked in the hospital. But Kayla talked to everybody who was on duty that night. And she said no one saw any of that. That brings us right back to Nurse King. Okay. Eli did a background check on her.

And Kayla said she’s one of those exemplary employees. She’s had the same shift for 15 years. She never took any time off except for when her husband died a few years back. Oh, she left work early on the day Abe disappeared, right? She told the police she was sick. So she was sick on the day Abe disappeared, but didn’t miss a day of work for 15 years.

Until her husband died.

Hey, Mr. Johnson. Hey, Chanel. Come on in. Hey, Chanel. Hi, Mr. Black. I’m profoundly sorry, honey. I bet you’re here for those pictures your mom asked for. Yeah, Kayla found them. They’re right here. Thank you need?

Oh, no, thank you. We have everything we need and then some. Everyone’s been so kind. Coworkers, friends, total strangers. I mean, Abe’s nurse even stopped by to see if Mama was okay the other day. Nurse King? Um, I think that was her name. Uh, why?

Abe is fine. I had to sedate him, okay? Which is all your fault, by the way. My fault? What are you even talking about? Abe saw you on Body and Soul. And then he saw your name in the credits. He figured out that you’re not his son, so I had no choice but to give him a little break from reality. Oh my god, this isn’t right.

That’s what I came here to talk to you about, okay? I met Abe’s son and his daughter, and they’re wrecked. I mean, they love this guy, and they think that he’s dead. All because of you and this crazy scheme of yours. Okay, this is not some crazy scheme, Jerry. I love this man. He was meant for me and I’m the only one that can take care of him the way I can.

Yeah, right. Like you’re caring for him right now? Keeping him cooped up and sedated and away from his family? If you really cared about him, you would let him go. You shut up. You shut up! You have no idea what his life was like with those people. Yeah, you’re right. I don’t. And neither do you. But what I do know is that they’ll be grieving for no damn reason.

And that they’ll be crying at his funeral when he’s sitting in there, right under their noses. Yeah, well, not for long. I’m leaving Salem, and I’m taking Abraham with me.

Lonnie, I know that you’re out on parole in six months, and I don’t want you to do or say anything that might jeopardize you getting back to your family. Wow. So, in other words… In other words… I know that you, as someone who… Who’s been unfairly, um, separated from their children. You know, exactly, exactly how I feel.

I actually do. And Kristen, I want the best for you and for Rachel. I know how much you love her. But Brady is that child’s father. And he loves her too. Yeah, but I, I just, I don’t get to see her. I don’t, I know, Kristen, and I know you still have feelings for him. So, why do you want him to suffer? Huh?

All this time, Kristen, that I have been away from my babies. They’ve had Eli. Thank God. I can’t even imagine. How painful it would be for them to be separated from him right now. He is their world. And like it or not, that is what Brady is for Rachel. God, God watch me, why don’t you? Just think about it. Okay?

God. I have to get to the church. Look, I love you. I love you, too. You know that. Oh. I know.

You know what? I really wish I could be there at the service for you and Theo. I just don’t think anybody is gonna want me there. I would’ve wanted you there. Look, don’t, don’t worry about that. Okay? You just… You focus on reuniting your beautiful family. Do that.

It’s so wonderful to see you. Please, I just, I hope we get to see each other very soon. We will. Here. In Salem. Not in federal prison. Okay. Okay. I love you.

I will be. Civilized with Kristen, okay? Since when has civilized ever worked with her? Brady, let me do it. Wait, what? Let me go to the mansion and try to talk to her. No, uh, Marlena, you… No, no, no. I may not be a trained detective. But I am trained in knowing when somebody is lying to me. And I am trained in…

Having people open up to me. Man, nobody’s better at doing that than you, that’s for sure. Alright, I will go there as soon as I drop the pictures off. Okay, alright, alright, maybe, maybe, maybe you can get through to Kristen. Find out where my little girl is. I will do my damnedest. I know you will. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

And I didn’t think my father would fall in love with anyone else ever again. Not after my mother died. But, then he met this amazing woman, who changed his life. And she changed mine too. She always makes me feel important. She has a talent for that with everyone she cares about. And even when she made my dad angry, like when she was gonna demolish a town square, which would have been very dumb.

Oh, um, maybe I should… Take that part out. I know sometimes I can be too blunt. That’s very blunt, for sure. But, it’s, it’s, it’s true. So, keep it. Just, just keep it. Go on. Okay, um, where was I? Uh, oh, I got it. Um, And even when my dad was upset with her, They worked it out because they were made for each other. My dad really loved Paulina because she’s such a fun, interesting person.

And I love her too. I may not be her flesh and blood, but she treats me like I am.

I’ll take care of her, Dad.

I promise. Oh, we’ll take care of each other.

So, Nurse King came to your apartment? Yeah, Mama said she wanted to give her condolences when she found out the news that Ape had died. That was very nice of her. Yeah. I wonder how she got your address. Uh, she probably got it from his patient file. Or maybe she got it when she worked on Abe’s last mayoral campaign.

She was on Abe’s campaign? Yeah. She was a big supporter of his. She was even at the park for the Juneteenth celebration when they got married. Um. Anyway, um. I should get going. Thanks again for the treat. We’ll see you real soon, okay? Bye.

Kinda seems to me, we need to take a harder look at Nurse King.

What do you mean you’re leaving Salem? I’m quitting my job and I’m taking Abe somewhere far, far away from here where we can have a fresh start. I’ve been saving up for years, so we’ll lack for nothing. And speaking of money, there’s a big bonus in it for you if you would leave town too. You want me to leave Salem?

Why? Why do you think. You’re up to your neck in this mess too, and it would be better if you were away from here, somewhere, away from prying eyes and all the questions that you seem oh too ready to answer. But… Look, look, look, you’re an actor, right? You want to stay here and say hello to this? Nothing for you here.

Last I checked, they weren’t shooting any movies and TV shows here, right? No, definitely not. Okay. Well, look, I gotta get back in there to Abe. I’ll be in touch about the bonus. Just not a word to anyone. Okay?

Jerry. Why, why was he here? Oh, Theo forgot something. He had to come all the way back from South Africa. Isn’t that something? He’s not my son. It’s not Thea. Of course he’s your son. Silly. Don’t be so silly. Well, listen, I’ve got to go to the hospital and take care of a few things, but while I’m gone, you’re going to watch your stories.

Just let your friends from Pineview keep you company. What do you say? And when I come back… Darling, we’re going to start a whole new life together. Not the, uh, not my son.

Hmm. Well, I’m gonna see you two cupcakes and raise you, uh, a piece of gum. Am I interrupting? Uh, no. Um, it’s okay. Uh, you know, you could have used the front door like a normal person. I know. But then you wouldn’t have answered the door. I don’t mind going through the tunnels. I know my way around down there, having been held captive there a number of times.

Ah, yes, and so here you are. And to what do I owe the pleasure? Smart as you are, I think that you can figure out that I’m here on Brady’s behalf. About Rachel. Ah, and did you take a good look around for her while you were downstairs? In fact, I did. Yes, then you’d see for yourself that, uh, Rachel is not here.

I don’t believe you. Why don’t you make it easy on yourself? And everybody who loves Rachel. Tell me where my granddaughter is. So how you

holding up, son? Dad, I’m, uh, I’m nervous. Marlena just went over to confront Kristen about Rachel. Yeah, yeah, she told me that. Hang on a second. Hey, John. I just gave Kayla a ride back to the hospital. I’m gonna check and see if Nurse King is on shift. Maybe have a word with her. Alright, sounds good. Let me know what’s going on.

Will do.

Who are you, and why do you want to talk to me?

See, I told you they would accept you as their long lost heir, Kyle Von Furstenberg. Good

work. Well now, our business is concluded. Good. Because I’m tired of this charade. I am not Kyle.

I cannot see you either. It was a beautiful service, Mama. It was, wasn’t it? Seemed like the whole town was there. So many people I didn’t even know. Yeah. Uh, but I didn’t see Nurse King. Did, did any of you? No, but maybe she had work? I didn’t either, but I did see that guy Jerry at the back of the church.

Jerry, who was that? He’s the one who saw Dad fall into the river. Lonnie and I met him the other day. He was feeling guilty because he felt like he should have done more to save Dad, but… He can’t swim. Well, then what could he have done? That’s what I said. Well, I don’t know about the rest of you all, but I am ready to go home.

Yeah, me too. Wait, hey, Mom, do you mind if I just stay here for a little bit? I just, I need a minute. It’s not like they can’t keep tabs on me.

All right, all right, but just don’t stay too long. You know Rafe will be at the apartment soon because I know. He’s gonna take me back to prison. I know. Please do not worry. I will be there in time, okay?

Wait Before Lonnie and Eli showed up. You said that you had something to tell me. What is it? Oh I Just wanted to say again how terrible I feel about your dad, and I want you to know how Deep piece of her head.

Your psychological insight knows no bounds, really. You demand that I tell you what you want, but, uh, you really think that’s gonna work, Dr. Evans? Only yesterday, I helped you through hypnosis to get your memories back. When your sister kidnapped you. And injected you with mind altering drugs? Yes, yes, yes, yes, and I, I, I remember, uh, I thanked you for that.

Yes, but you didn’t pay me for it. Now, I, I, I don’t, uh, I don’t want your money. But you could pay me by letting me know where my granddaughter is. Hmm. Well, I’m sorry, I can’t help you with that. Kristen, you can’t keep going on like this. If you truly love Okay, just Stop.

If I did know where Rachel was, and I’m not saying I do, I’m not willing to give that information up for nothing.

I would need something in return.

Hopefully, hopefully Marlene will be able to get through to Chris. I was really hoping to hear from her by now. I just, um, gotta be patient. Hasn’t been that long yet.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Dr. Abraham. Most honorable man I’ve ever known. Best friend that any man could ever ask for. Cheers. Cheers.

My name is Steve Johnson. I was a good friend of Mayor Carver’s. Oh, you’re Dr. Johnson’s husband. Oh, I recognize you from the hospital Christmas party. You’re the one eyed Santa. Yeah, that’s me. Yeah. Well, uh, what do you want to talk to me about? Well, Abe’s stepdaughter mentioned to me that, uh, you’d worked on his election campaign.

Oh, yes, I did. I’m a huge supporter of Mayor Carver. And you were at, uh, his wedding to Paulina Price? Well, I was at the Juneteenth celebration, if that’s what you mean, along with the whole town. I also woke up early to watch Princess Diana’s wedding. What does that have to do with anything? Well, I’m just wondering if you could tell me…

Exactly what Abe said to you before he disappeared. I’ve already told the police everything, and I don’t mean to be rude, but I really do have to get going. Actually, I need to speak with your wife. Do you know if she’s in her office? She is. She just got back. What do you need to talk to her about? Actually, I’m tendering my resignation.

Oh, really? Why’s that?

So, uh, how about I make some zucchini bread, or pumpkin bread, or oatmeal cookies? I’m not hungry. Mama, you have to eat. Maybe later. Do you believe what they said? What? Who said? Everyone. About how my dad’s in a better place.

I sure hope so, honey. Oh, I sure hope so.

Uh, what do you not understand about goodbye? You are dense. Go.

What now?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

You are damn good, Chanel. Let’s hope those aren’t laced with a dangerous hallucinogen. Can I help you? Chanel Dupree, I presume. Yeah, that’s me. We haven’t been formally introduced. My name is Clint Rawlings. We have a lot to discuss. Hey. Hi. Coffee? Oh,

I would love some. You just come from the hospital? Yeah, I just left. We had a very eventful morning. Really? Care to share? Well, you might find it interesting. Marlena managed to deprogram Harris Michaels. Really? So he’s gonna be okay? To be determined. I don’t think you understand. We have completely broken through Megan’s conditioning, so you are no longer under her or anybody else’s control.

I’m glad you think so. Well, I think so, because it’s true. And there’s also no reason for you to receive any inpatient care. With all due respect, Dr. Evans, the only way to make sure that I never hurt another innocent person again

is to have me committed immediately.

So, who do you want to be in a committed relationship with? Buddy, me. A trip. Look, we’ll respect your decision either way. We need an answer, Wendy. Are

you suspending me? You’re leaving me no choice. You’re drinking on the job. You’re gonna hurt yourself or worse, someone else. Now, I’m gonna need your gun and your shield. Man, oh man. How do you not get dizzy standing up there on your high horse? What the hell does that mean? It means that you and I both know damn well that you’ve broken as just as many rules as any other officer in this department.

Careful detective. Careful? Yeah. How careful do you want me to be, boss? I mean, I was just as careful as you were when you started having sex with one of your other detectives.

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

Jada! Is it a nice surprise? Sorry, I should have called ahead. No, no need. My oldest friend’s daughter doesn’t need an invitation. Come on in. Thanks.

So, Steve, I wanted to say that I’m so sorry that you lost another long time friend. Thanks. Can’t believe Abe’s gone. Still trying to wrap my head around it. Yeah, me too. I’ve been on the job a long time, and I’ve seen a lot of bad things, but this… It’s hard to make sense of it. I know you and Rafe did everything you could to bring Abe home safe.

We did, but we still can’t help but feel that we let him down.

I wonder how Abe would feel knowing that instead of you being out there looking for him. You were too busy disobeying one of his last rules. My office. Now. No, you just put me on suspension, so I don’t have to go anywhere with you. I’m telling you, don’t do this. Why? What, you don’t want the rest of the department to know that you’ve been screwing Detective Hunt?

You don’t know what the hell you were talking about! Really? This lady whistleblower, she sure knew what she was talking about. Oh, really? Okay, so now we’re gonna believe everything that we read in Leo Stark’s gossip column? Or maybe… Maybe it’s the booze that’s clouding your judgment. Hmm. Yeah, well, I didn’t just read about it in Stark’s gossip column.

I got a first hand account.

You know, I appreciate you two being so patient with me. Giving me time to figure out what I want. Of course.

Trip, do you mind giving Johnny and me some privacy?

Yeah. Yeah, uh, I need to… Don’t check in with my dad anymore. Yeah, please let him know I’m thinking about him. And Tripp, I’ll text you. Okay.

Alone at last. Clint

Rawlings. You’re Abe’s deputy mayor. I was until his untimely demise. May he rest in peace. So, are you the mayor now? Acting. Mayor. I see. And I see you’re open for business.

Sample? I’ll think about it. Well, as I’m sure you know, we’ve been going through some challenges, but with everything that my family’s going through, I’m just, I’m really grateful to be back in business. I’m sure you are. I’m sorry. Is there a problem, Mr. Rawlings? Acting Mayor Rawlings. You’re damn right there’s a problem.

You poisoned half this town, Ms. Dupree. And if it were up to me, sweet bits would be shuttered for good. I know how upsetting it

must have been to learn that you were still susceptible to It’s a nightmare. It’s a nightmare. Only, I never wake up from it. I’m constantly in fear that I’m gonna wake up strapped to a bed and learn that I’ve hurt somebody else. I understand. I know how it feels to… To believe that you are no longer acting of your own free will.

And, and if you think you still have some residual effect, I’d be glad to see you on an outpatient. No, that’s not gonna be enough. That’s not gonna be enough. I need to be under locking. key 24 7 until a team of shrinks can guarantee me that Megan Hathaway and that freak Dr. Rolfe will never be inside my head again.

So it was you that had Michaels go after Megan Hathaway? Oh, what was I thinking, right? I mean, I knew that she had already had him under her control. I mean, we all knew that. And so did he. I mean, he’s a big boy. You know the risks? It’s true, but seriously, I should have known that she wouldn’t go violently when she found out he was trying to kidnap her and transport her to an off grid site.

He’s a pro. He’s probably done a hundred of these sort of things. Yeah, still, maybe. It still would have been best if he had gone with my original idea. What was that? I told him to kill the bitch.

Dr. Evans, as long as Rolf and Megan are out there, I am a threat. To you and everybody that you care about.

You didn’t seriously hurt anybody when you were under their control. Not this time. But what about before? The two guys that I shot in cold blood in Greece. What I did to Bowen Hope, the Johnsons, I attacked your husband and your stepson in San Francisco. Do you want somebody who’s dangerous and unstable like me walking the streets?

Now, this is more like it. Johnny.

Hey. No, no, it’s okay. I didn’t mind a little competition and, and… Besides, if anyone deserves to have two men fighting over her… It is you. Except… I’m not surprised to be one. No, no, no, no, no, you’re not. I’m, I’m, that’s not what I meant. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for it to come out like that. Johnny, this wasn’t about you competing with Tripp.

Okay, this was about me trying to figure out my feelings. You know, deciding who and what I need in a partner. No, no, I know, I know. And I get that, I respect that, and I am so happy that you chose me. And now the trip is out of the picture. You and I can really just focus on committing to each other. Aren’t you forgetting someone else in your little equation?

Uh, no. What do you mean, who? Who else? Chanel.

So you’re not gonna try the sample? Cuz I have to say my chocolate scones have been known to make grown men cry. This works a lot of people, huh? Why does? That bubbly irreverence. It’s easy to see how so many people have been charmed by you. Theo Carver. Xander Cook. And before that, there was your college professor.

Excuse me? And let’s not forget both Johnny DiMera and his twin sister, Allie Horton. And then there was Talia Hunter. Okay, wait a second. You going over all of the people that I’ve been involved with is really creeping me out. And for the record, not that it’s any of your business, but Talia Hunter only pretended to like me so that she could help Colin Bedford get revenge.

Yes, and then she threw herself and her boyfriend off a roof. All to save you. My God, how do you know all of this about me? And what is your point? My point? Is that you’re not just delivering delicious treats to Salem. Since you arrived here, you and your mother have brought nothing but crime, chaos, and salacious scandals to our fine city.

And it’s time someone did something about that. Mmm.

These are delicious. You’re right.

First hand account. About Jada and me? Yep. From Jada herself. Alright. She told you? Not exactly. Alright. Alright. So, Rafe came over to give me some good news about my sister. And, you know, that was a big relief to me. And then, one thing led to another, and… That’s all I’m gonna say. Well, I am very a great guy, and you’re a great catch.

I really hope it does work out. Thanks.

So you eavesdropped on Jada and Cade’s conversation. Well, detectives gotta detect, right? So yeah, yeah, I know all about your sneaky little affair. Burning question is, what am I gonna do with the information?

Well, John and I… Came up against the same walls on the investigation that you guys did. I kept thinking there would be some piece of evidence out there that would explain why Abe went into the water that night. And where he went when he left the hospital. You know, Rafe and I, well, the entire Salem PD, we turned this city upside down looking for him.

But I wish we could have done more. Hey, buddy. Hey, Dad. Hey, Dana. Hey, Tripp. Nice to see you. You too. Well, I better get back to the station now. Well, thanks for coming by. I’ll let you know if we turn up anything new. Same. See you,

Tripp. Bad day? Written all over my face, huh? Yeah, I think you inherited that from me. When you’re unhappy, you have a hard time hiding it. So what’s going on? What’s got you down? Uh, it’s about Wendy. Who I have very strong feelings for. And that’s a bad thing? It is now. Cause it looks like I’m about to lose her to Johnny DeMera.

What does Chanel have to do with you? And me finally getting to be together. I had to make a choice when it came to you and Tripp, and you had to make one too. Um, no. I didn’t because I wasn’t seeing Chanel the same time I was dating you. Yeah, only because she didn’t give you the chance. What? No! Wendy! You are the only woman that I want to be with.

I’m not so sure about that. Okay. Where is, where is all this coming from? Look, I’m not the one who needed to date two people just to make a decision. Well, because I was being honest with you. Oh, and I wasn’t being honest with you. I’m just saying… When it comes to your feelings with Chanel… I don’t think you’re being honest with yourself.

I know those poison biscuits cause a lot of trouble, but I had nothing to do with it. Except that it was one of your employees that did the poisoning. Okay, my, my bakery was sabotaged. I’m the innocent party here. Oh? Well, what about your customers? Some of whom suffered violent reactions and terrifying hallucinations.

Weren’t they? Of course, and I feel terrible about that. I’m not sure you do. Because from what I’ve gathered, you haven’t taken responsibility for the incident. Or for the fact that your unseemly involvement with Colin Bedford’s parents led directly to this mess. Oh my god, why are you attacking me like this?

What I am doing, Miss Dupree, is making it clear that the Rawlings administration is bringing law, order, and moral decency back to Salem, USA. Which means going forward, if you are involved in one more incident, I’ll see to it that you never do business in this town again.

Stale, by the way.

You asked Michaels to kill Megan

Hathaway? Ah, ah, ah. Ah, come on. I mean, you’re not going to tell Robin, right? Kate! What? Come on. Megan Hathaway is fine, so there’s no harm, no foul. No, I don’t make a habit of lying to my big brother, and you shouldn’t either. Listen, I, he would understand. When we were all presumed dead, John, Steve, Roman, they all considered taking out Orpheus.

Yes, I know. Roman told me. He also told me that he had a change of heart and went to Statesville to stop them from going ahead with their plans. But still, he would understand the impulse. I certainly do. What? Taylor, Brady, Little Miss Catholic School, Laurel actually has a little bit of the killer instinct.

I’m not saying that I condone cold blooded murder. Do I wish that Megan Hathaway was out of our lives for good? Damn right

I do. It is because of my husband that I have enormous empathy for you.

I know. I know that he was brainwashed by, by Rolf and Stefano. Yeah. The DiMeras have used mind control against people for decades. They’re the monsters. Not you. That may be. But they managed to turn me into a weapon not once, but twice. And I’m not willing to risk what could happen if they could do it a third time.

Are

you threatening me, Shawn? I’m just saying. That if you can break the rules, and you can get a pass, then why can’t I? You were drinking on the job! And you have been sleeping with your subordinate! What I do off the clock does not impact my work! And it’s no one’s damn business! Really? Yeah. Okay, what about, what about power imbalance?

Workplace ethics? Like… What the hell do you want, Sean? I want fairness. But at the end of the day, that’s up to you. If you wanna suspend me, fine. Go ahead. You wanna, you wanna treat me like crap? Go ahead. But it… I’m not a vindictive bastard. Meaning what? Meaning that I will be discreet. I’m not going to tell anybody that you’ve been hooking up with Detective Hunter.

Excuse me?

Deputy Mayor! I’m acting mayor now. For your sake, Commissioner Hernandez, I sincerely hope this detective’s got his facts wrong.

Acting Mayor Rawlings, um, I think you misheard. You mean you didn’t just accuse your commanding officer of having an inappropriate workplace relationship with one of your fellow detectives?

What’s going on? Detective Hunter! What a coincidence. We were just talking about you. I think

I like this new lethal Kayla Brady Johnson. I’m not condoning violence. But I want my family to be safe. Said the proud mama bear. Look, I hope that they find Megan Hathaway and put her away for life this time. Oh, amen to that, sister in law. Yeah. Listen, I need to go. Steve and I have a lunch date at home.

Yeah, I’ll walk you out. There’s someone I need to see.

Harris, even if I had you committed to Bayview, it doesn’t mean you won’t be conditioned again. Several lovely demure pawns have succumbed to mind control. Even after very rigorous psychiatric treatments. I, I get that. I mean, I was in intense therapy with those doctors overseas, but we know how it worked out for me.

But at least with inpatient treatment, I, I believe that will help me become mentally stronger. So I’ll be less susceptible to Rolf’s mind games.

What do you want from me? What, what do you mean? Well, you, you can commit yourself to, to, uh, to bathe you of your own volition. Yeah, but then I can check myself out too. But if you commit me, then I have no choice but to stay. That’s what you want?

Yeah. My mind has been so screwed with over the past few years. I

just need some time to heal.

For me this is about survival. And if I can’t rid myself of the fear that at any moment I might lose control of who I am or who I want to be, I just don’t know if I can go on.

So please,

will you commit me or not?

So, you, uh, just left Wendy there with Johnny DiMera? Yeah, what was I supposed to do? Chain myself to the couch? She asked me to go. Well, you know, when Bo and I were your age, we would fight for the lady’s hand. Well, times have changed, Dad. I don’t think Wendy would have appreciated me challenging Johnny to a duel.

What do you think turning tail was the answer? As opposed to refusing to leave? Were you afraid of being cancelled? Or arrested? Oh, man. Everybody’s so sensitive these days. Dad, you do understand that I have to respect Wendy’s wishes. Yeah, yeah. Well, I guess you do. Dad! Yes, of course you do. Okay, I’m not that much of a caveman.

I know that throwing a woman over my shoulder or on the back of Bo’s stolen bike, those days are obviously long gone. Yeah, that’s a good thing. Damn straight it is. We have to trust that women know their own minds, and that is what I am doing. If Wendy chooses Johnny, that is her prerogative, and I’m dealing with it.

End of story. What? What are you thinking now? I just wonder if Wendy really knows her own mind. Of course she does. And I have to accept that.

I think it’s just too cut and dry. I

don’t want to be with Chanel. I want to be with you. And yet every time I turn around, you’re racing off to be with her. Yeah, because she’s my friend. Okay, and she’s been through a lot of trauma lately. She was almost killed. She just lost her stepdad. Yeah, I understand. She’s going through hell, and I feel for her.

But you still think there’s something shady going on? No. Look, I like her. And I do not do girl drama. Then what’s the problem? The problem? Is that your first instinct is to always protect your ex wife and I don’t see that changing anytime soon Which is one of the reasons I’m choosing to be with Tripp

You can’t give up on Wendy that easily Have you been listening to anything? I just said of course I have You have to let her make her own choices And I’m hip to toxic masculinity and gender equality and all that stuff But you don’t have to be toxic and disrespectful to fight for someone. And I’m talking about the kind of fighting you guys do.

You’re smarter, more evolved generation. With your head, you know, with respect and decency. How am I supposed to fight like that? It’s easy. You just show Wendy what a good, awesome man you are. And that you’re in it for the long haul. I don’t think I’ve already tried that. I think that you’ve been let down and hurt by a lot of people in your life.

So when it comes to love, things get dicey, you have a tendency to cut your losses and, and run. To protect yourself. And I get that, man. I used to do the same thing when I was your age. Let me tell you something. If you really care about Wendy as much as you say you do, then you’ve got to let her know you’re not going anywhere.

Will

you do that? Will you at least consider it? I suppose I could. It’s just,

I feel like I’ve already humiliated myself enough. Even just being in this competition with Johnny. Hey. It shouldn’t be humiliating to give something all you got. Okay? And if it doesn’t work out, you can walk away with no regrets, knowing that you fought for it.

Okay. Okay, I’ll take your advice. I’m telling you, you won’t regret it. I better not. Thanks, Dad. Anytime, son.

Now, where are you going? You’re going over to Wendy’s, right? Yes, I’m going. I promise. I’m going. Okay.

So you’re really picking Tripp over me because you think I’m not over Chanel? Your connection with Chanel is only part of the reason. Okay, then what’s the rest?

Well, Tripp and I have been spending a lot of time together lately. Well, I’ve been with Chanel. Yeah. And my feelings for him have started to deepen. Oh. Oh, so it’s my fault. No. No, it’s not anybody’s fault. Look, you’re a great guy, Johnny. And I care about you a lot. Now it’s just… Have a hard time. But I, uh, really do hope that you and Chanel give it another shot.

I don’t want to be with Chanel. How many times do I have to tell you that? What do I have to do to prove it?

Goodbye, Johnny.

Bye.

What’s new?

Hey, you’re back. I’m back. Sorry I had to check on a few other patients. And I wanted to give that sedative some time to kick in. How do you feel? I’m a little more relaxed, thank you.

Good. Have, have you made a decision? About my request? I have.

It’s obvious to me how much you want this, so… I will commit you to Bayview.

Detective Hunter, your partner has just brought a very serious accusation to my attention. Sean? Oh, I didn’t make any accusation. Might I speak to you in private, Detective Hunter? I’m sorry, what is this about? Your relationship with Commissioner Hernandez. Okay, you know what, this, this really isn’t necessary, Mr.

Mayor. In here, Detective. Now? Sorry, Rafe,

I didn’t, I didn’t know that Rawlings was standing right behind me. Yeah, it’s a little late for apologies, Sean. Look, I can make this better. Okay, I’m gonna go in there, I’m gonna talk to him. No! I’m gonna… You’ve done enough. Now, I’m gonna still need your gun and your badge.

Now!

Yeah. Yeah, Mama and I got the flowers you and Henry sent. They were beautiful.

I know. I can’t believe it either. Abe is gone.

So, I heard you’re seeing someone. That’s great. All I’ve ever wanted was for you to be happy. Me? Oh, um, no, there’s no one new in my life.

Uh, Horton? Um, I, I have a customer. I’m, I’m gonna call you back, okay? Okay, yeah, you too. Bye, Horton.

Do you have a permit for that dark cloud you’re carrying around? It’s that obvious, huh? It is to me. What happened?

I just got dumped.

Hey! Hey!

Where’s Johnny? He left. Really? I figured you two would be celebrating your new official status as a couple. He and I have nothing to celebrate. What, he’s not excited about being your boyfriend? He’s not my boyfriend. Trip.

Okay, okay, I’m, I’m, I’m a little lost here. You asked me to leave so you could tell Johnny. So I could tell Johnny that I didn’t want to be with him. What?

I needed some time alone with him to explain why I chose you. Me? Yes, you. Dr. Tripp Johnson, you are the man I want to be with. That is, if you still want to be with me. Oh yeah, I do.

Mmm, something smells delicious. I hope you’re in the mood for some of my famous beef stew. Your amazing beef stew? Yeah. I think I’m in the mood for anything you’re cooking. Oh boy.

How was your day then? Well, two of my favorite people stopped by. Jada and then Tripp. Ah, for good reasons or bad? Jada was here to give her condolences about Abe, and… Well, that was nice of her. What about Tripp? Well, Tripp came to me for a little bit of advice on his love life. Uh huh. What do you mean, uh huh?

Tripp came to you for relationship advice. Well, not exactly, but I am his father. Oh. So you gave it to him. What can I say? When you have a gift, you gotta give it away. Hmm. So you say. Ah. So what about you? Busy morning? Um, well, actually, you know what? I stopped by the pub. And had a very interesting conversation with Kate.

Interesting how. Well, it turns out that my sister in law is the reason that Harris Michaels went after Megan Hathaway. It just didn’t turn out the way she hoped.

Knock, knock. Up for a visitor? Hey Kate.

Look, um, I need to apologize. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a card that said, Sorry that my harebrained scheme almost got you killed. You have nothing to apologize for. It was my plan, and it went awry. I’m actually, uh, I’m actually grateful to you. Oh, grateful. Yeah, if you hadn’t convinced me to go after Megan, I wouldn’t have found out that she still had the power to control me.

Yeah, well, maybe that’s a good thing. Let me know that I’m, I’m still a danger to myself and to the people around me.

But, uh, thanks to you, I’m going somewhere to get the help that I need. Okay, where’s that? Bayview.

Marlena, hey. Oh, hi there. Uh, uh, Are you here on assignment? No, um, no, I’m off duty.

Uh, wait, um, Look, actually, that’s, uh, that’s a lie. I’ve been, I’ve been doing that a lot lately. I’ve been lying to myself and, uh, and to others.

The truth is, I’ve, uh, Look, I’ve been suspended from the force. Oh my, what happened? Look, I’m in trouble. And, uh, Look, I need, I need your help. Look, I need your help before I make my life any worse than I already have.

Detective Hunter just confirmed that you and she have been engaging in an inappropriate workplace relationship. As you know, this is a violation of department policy regarding fraternization between city appointees and their subordinates. So I have no choice but to take immediate action.

I’m gonna need to take a gun in your badge. Okay, well, with all due respect, Mr. Mayor, you, uh, you don’t have the authority to suspend Detective Hunter. Oh, I’m not suspended, Mayor. Or you, for that matter. But as Acting Mayor, I do have the authority to appoint the Commissioner of Police. Or remove him. In other words, you’re fired.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Uh, hey. This is Tripp, is, uh, is Wendy here?

No.

Oh. Uh, well, do you, uh, do you know where she is?

Yeah. She’s out at the station visiting her brother

June one.

So happy to see you. Don’t, don’t what? Don’t pretend everything is normal, like you didn’t brainwash someone late, which is crazy enough on its own. You brainwashed them to take out your romantic rival, Jim Wayne, you don’t understand. Of course, I understand you didn’t want me to attend Stephanie and Gabby’s engagement party.

Remember? You tried to stop me cause you ordered Harris Michaels to crash the party and commit murder.

3, 2, 1. Open your eyes.

How do you feel? I’m just frustrated. We’ve been working at this for hours. Doesn’t seem like we’re making any progress. Well, I, I know this kind of, the programming takes time. You’ve gotta be patient with the process and with yourself. Maybe hypnotherapy isn’t working for me

objectively. I know it’s wrong. But I still have this overwhelming urge to kill Stephan Damara.

So is Stephan on his way? I haven’t told him what happened yet. Well, he doesn’t know that you were attacked. It’s just a few scratches, but I’m sorry, I, I can’t believe that Dr. Wolf jumped me. You know what? Next time that bastard’s not gonna be, so No, no, no, no, no. Next time. Do you hear me? No. Okay. And since, uh, that old bastard and Megan are still out there, maybe you ought stay with me at least till we catch ’em.

No. Okay. That it. Thank you. But don’t underestimate me big bro. Okay? I can handle this. Plus I just wanna relax. I wanna be home in the arms of my loving fiance. God, what the hell is wrong with you?

Where the hell is Rafe? He’s at the hospital checking on his sister. Then who is in charge down here? Uh, well that would be me, obviously. Is there a problem? Yes. Ms. Trask? Yes. Can you tell me why the divers are packing their gear up? Uh, maybe because they’ve searched every inch of the river and there’s no sign of mega deira or will hem wolf.

They’re clearly gone. So I’m calling it to search. You can’t do that? Uh, actually I can, and I just did. Detective Brady, do I smell alcohol on your breath,

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

Alcohol. Like why would I have alcohol in my breath? I’m on duty that you are detective.

What is this? But that, um, I don’t, it just, um, like I, I dunno, you see this makeshift memorial right here? People have been dropping all sorts of things off from Mayor Carvers. So, uh, I maybe they pour one his on or right. So if I take this down to the station and have it dusted for print, the results won’t come back.

Reading for a certain Sean Douglas Brady, uh, Be my guest. If you want to waste apartment’s, time and money, that’s on you. But I’m not gonna find my prints on that then I guess we’re gonna have to wait and see.

You know, Wendy was, uh, just pretty upset with her brother last night. How was she today? Still in shock. I wish there was something I could do for her. You know, I think you’ve done quite enough.

What’s that supposed to mean? What the hell were you thinking Johnny dragging? When did your family’s party, I mean, thanks to you, she could have been killed,

Jing. One. I would never put you in danger, but you did, Lee. You let me walk into a situation that could have gone very wrong. People could have died, including me as I told Gabby and Stephan. I believe Megan, setting me up. Just stop. Stop. Okay. I know it was you, Harris Michaels said so himself. And do you know how horrified I was when I heard that I was trying to defend you, but my godly Your actions are indefensible.

No. No. You’ve got it wrong. You know, when you decided not to fight Gabby on the divorce, I felt so proud of you because I thought you were finally taking the high road, you know, trying to make up for all your past mistakes, be a better person. But obviously that was all an act, and now instead of pride, I feel shame.

I’m ashamed that you’re my brother.

I’ve been in this situation before, thanks to Megan the last time the i s a used e c t to deprogram me and it works. So why don’t we just try that again.

I don’t think we need anything that risky. I think that we can try something else. Have another resort. Because your, your programming wasn’t as ingrained as it was before, but what does it feel like? That it has a vice grip on me. I understand. We’ll try something else. Please just get the electrodes and zap the hell out of me.

Nobody’s getting zapped on my watch.

Okay. Then what?

Something new and you’re going to have to trust me.

We are using hypnosis. To go back to the moment when you returned,

I want you to remember back to the moment when you were kidnapped. Can you do that? Mm-hmm.

Tell me, tell me where you are.

I’m, I’m in a lab.

Okay. Look around. Tell me what you see.

I’m strapped down to a gurney. I’m trying to get free, but I can’t. I feel groggy. Just everything’s blurry and off. I must have been drugged. Is there anyone in the room with you?

No, but I hear voices, muffled voices. What are they saying? I can’t, I can’t make it out. I think they’re out in the hall. Wait, someone’s coming. Who is it? It’s Lee Lee. Listen carefully. Commander, your mission is to go to Stephan and Gabby’s engagement party. Once there, you will find Stephan Demara and eliminate him.

Commander, you will stop at nothing to fulfill your mission.

You lied to my face. You said you were not gonna confront Megan, that you were going straight home, and now I find you here. Well, technically I didn’t use those exact words. I only led you to believe that I was listening to your advice. Do not get cute with me right now. Now is not the time. Had you listened to me, you would be home safe and sound.

And instead you got attacked by Rolph and handcuffed to Megan’s bed. I don’t even know why I bother with you anymore. Okay, Stefan, you’re upset right now and I get it. And I agree with you because what Gabby did was reckless and dumb. Excuse me. But the important thing is she’s all right. Yes, she is. She’s also standing right here.

Yep. Trying to help you. Gabby, after you jumped Michael’s, I saving your life. Let me finish. After you dropped Michael’s, you promised me you were gonna take these risks and more. You could have gotten yourself killed. How do you not see that? You know what? I’m you. I’m not gonna sit here and get scolded like a little girl who didn’t eat her vegetables.

I’m going home Good. Unless that’s another one of your lies. And I’m gonna get a phone call later that I don’t know. You went to question Hannibal Lecter and ya ended up in the bottom of a freaking well. Oh yeah. Well, the woman who spoke to Lecter and went after the killer, she’s a hero of this story. She saved the day and rescued that woman from the.

Does that mean what I think it means?

Does that mean what I think it means? You don’t wanna know.

Don’t you think? You’re being a little harsh. Mui moi. What happened to family loyalty? Family loyalty. Lee, you’ve lied to my face. You told me you were moving on. You even said you hired a matchmaker and then you attempted murder.

Wait a minute. That day I overheard part of your phone call. You said something about a big plan.

When I asked you about it, you claimed you were talking to a matchmaker, but you weren’t. You were talking about planning to kill stuff. It, look at me. Look at me.

What is wrong with you? When did you become so unhinged, so venal that you would go to such extremes to get what you want? Why couldn’t you just let Gabby go? Who are you to lecture me about letting go? You’ve been stringing along two poor stops for months.

Okay, back up. First of all. I didn’t drag Wendy along to that party. She was happy to come along with me. And second of all, how was I supposed to know that her crazy brother was planning to assassinate my Uncle Stephan? Please, you know damn well that putting someone in a room full of de mayors is like dropping them in a shark tank at feeding time.

Are you even listening to me? Wendy’s brother Lee Shin hired a hitman to kill my uncle. Stephan Demara, you know, the victim and all this. Selma doesn’t keep up with current affairs. What are you talking about? Your aunt Megan Demara was also apparently involved and now she’s on the lamb.

Maybe it’s slipped your mind, Misra, but we have more pressing matters to attend to, such as Megan Demara being on the loose, and yet you. You’re more concerned about, uh, a stupid empty liquor bottle. Yes, I am a hundred percent concerned detective. So maybe I’ll just take this out to the police lab and find out if it’s really yours.

Stop.

Fine. It’s mine. Are you happy now? No, I’m not happy. Why the hell would I be happy about a police officer drinking on the job? Actually, I’m a detective and currently right now I’m doing nothing. I’m just standing around waiting for the divers to report back. It’s not. It’s not like I’m in some high speed pursuit.

It’s not a big deal. Of course, it’s a big deal. You are an on duty cop. You are carrying a gun. You can’t have your judgment impaired. Does it look like my judgment is impaired? Yeah, actually it does. Why else would you prematurely call off a search for a a dangerous psychopath and her evil sidekick? Hey.

Nobody wants to find Megan more than I do. Okay? Nobody. But look around. She’s gone. And even if I, whatever, if I’ve had a few, it’s not like I can’t spot a submarine. I mean, for all we know, she’s sailed off into the land of blue meanies. You know what? Maybe you’re right. Maybe it doesn’t make a difference whether or not you’re drinking on the job.

Matter of fact, maybe you should have started knocking them back sooner. Maybe if you had a few, you would’ve been so quick on the draw when you shot your own father. Don’t

go to hell.

I want you to listen to my voice and accept what I’m telling you.

Lee Hin was the one who wanted you to kill Stephan. He put that idea in your mind and you did not want to do it.

Just keep saying it over and over. And over. It’s getting to me. It’s getting into my head. I understand. You have to ignore that. Don’t listen to it. Don’t listen. Can you do that?

Okay. Okay. Okay, good. Let’s go over this one more time. But this time you’re an observer, not a participant.

Listen carefully. Commander, your mission is to go to Stephan and Gabby’s engagement party. Once there you will find Stephan Deira would eliminate him. Commander, you must stop at nothing to fulfill your mission. Furthermore, you will believe it was who gave you the orders? Not me. If anyone should ask why you want to kill Stephan?

You are to blame Lee Hin.

It wasn’t Lee,

Dr. Wolf and Megan did this. They framed him.

You compare. My being indecisive with what you’ve done. Oh my God, Lee, do you do, do you even realize how insane that is? You have to judge me for being conflicted about not being able to choose between two guys for you to judge me for anything. I was only trying to point out that most of us are somewhat irrational when it comes to matters of the heart.

Yeah. Irrational doesn’t even begin to explain your behaviorally. And as for whom I choose to be with, I am not stringing anyone along. Okay. I, I am trying to figure out responsibly who is better suited for me. I am in the rare position of having two great guys wanting to be with me, and yes, it is flattering.

It’s so confusing. And difficult,

but I will make my choice at some point. And unlike you, I won’t be committing any crimes along the way. I didn’t commit a crime, Wendy. I told you that I was set up. Why the hell won’t you believe me? I dunno what to believe about you anymore, Lee. Well believe this.

I care deeply about you, J one, I think the world of you, and I only want you to find happiness, so will you at least allow me to offer my. Further Lee perspective.

Sure. Knock yourself out. Okay. I think you do know, maybe not consciously, but on some level, which one of those young men you are more drawn to, which one of them will give you what you need,

but because of your big heart. You’re reluctant to hurt the one that you’ll eventually have to reject, and that’s why you’re vacillating. Am I right?

I’ll take your silence as confirmation, and so I advise you, my precious sister not to procrastinate any longer. Take the stress off yourself. And relieve those young men of their uncertainty, their need to compete for your affection. Make that choice.

Wow. Yeah. I knew my aunt had locked my dad and Aunt Kristen in the basement, but I didn’t know she was trying to have my uncle’s stuff and killed. Yeah, just more proof that your family’s dangerous. So if you really care about Wendy, you’ll keep her away from them being awfully judgmental. Don’t you think I have a good reason to be judgmental?

I mean, I’m a victim of your crazy family too. Remember? That had me kidnapped. Oh, oh, yeah. Yeah. I do remember. I remember because it was right after your crazy mother kidnapped my grandma Susan, who is now dead because of your mother. So, I don’t think you get to criticize my family when yours is just as messed up.

My mom has a mental illness. Yeah, I heard about that. I bet she’s faking it. Just like she’s faked everything else. You best watch your mouth hear me. You’re the one who started this taking shots at my family, but I don’t think that’s what it’s really about. Your anger. See, I think it’s about Wendy and I think that you’re afraid.

That you’re gonna lose her to me.

Coast Guard’s gonna be keeping an eye out from Megan’s submarine. I’ve already alerted Isa. They’re gonna be checking international waters. Hopefully we catch a break. Thanks for the update, commissioner. No problem. Anything else? I’ll be in my office. Actually, there is one more thing. You need a fire Detective Brady over there for drinking on the job.

Look, first I gotta say that I’m getting really, really frustrated and kind of embarrassed in this little ridiculous competition we have between us. And although a part of me would just prefer just back out all together and just tell Wendy that I am done humiliating myself to try to prove that I’m more worthy of her devotion than you are for another part of me knows that’s do.

That would be to give up on her,

huh? I feel the same way actually. Okay, then okay, then let’s just. Stop with the, oh, I’m better for Wendy than you are. I’m, I’m closer to her than you are. I spend more time with her than you do. It’s just all juvenile and petty, don’t you think? I do think. All right, so given that we both don’t want to be petty or juvenile about this anymore, I say we both just do our best to be mature.

And dignified through all of this. Stop trying to prove who, who’s gonna make Wendy the happiest or who’s the better person. Just be ourselves. Let Wendy make up her own mind. I’m all for that. Me too. Let’s hope Blake like hell. You chooses me. You, you couldn’t give mature and dignified much of a shot.

Could you? Come on, man. I’m kidding. I’m, but really, I, I think the best thing we can do is just give Wendy her space and be patient. Yeah. Patient. Patient. You know, I’m trying to be patient with you, Lee, allowing you to weigh in. About my left life when it is totally irrelevant to why I’m here right now. And as I’ve said before, there is no comparing my indecisiveness to you committing a felony brainwashing someone to have someone else killed.

Why do you continue to accuse me when I never admitted that I did either? But clearly you want the moral eye ground and I will happily conceded to you.

You know, instead of being glib, maybe you should start figuring out a way that you’re gonna get out of this mess you’ve made for yourself. And if by some miracle you do find a way out, maybe consider this a wake up call. Because it would be a shame to throw your entire life away over a woman who has made it abundantly clear.

She doesn’t want you

top three. And he confirmed Pento means exactly what I thought it meant. I am not an ungrateful ass, coulda fool me, really? So I’m the bad guy here for caring about you, for worrying about your safety. Huh? For getting upset that you deliberately put yourself in harm’s way for no good reason. I had a good reason Steph and Megan has to pace.

She tried to kill you, and in turn you almost got yourself killed. Well, I’m still here. One piece. Why? Why are you being so stubborn about this? Why are you being so angry about this? Because you scared the hell outta me. Do you have any idea how freaked out I was when I heard what happened to you? I’m fine, but you almost weren’t.

It could have been so much worse

if Megan really was the one who wanted me dead, she would’ve had no problem knocking you off too,

and I never would’ve forgiven myself.

You are my entire world. Get me. You’re fine too.

Why are we fighting? Because we’re good at it, but we’re good at other things too.

I mean, it, it’s, it’s all coming back to me. Lee Chen didn’t order me to kill Stephan was Dr. Wolf. I, I, I’m pretty sure I didn’t even see Lee in the lab, but Wolf wanted me to think so. So I would blame Lee,

now that you remembered all that. When you see Stephan Damara, how do you feel?

Hi.

I, I don’t, I don’t feel anything

and those thoughts of wanting or needing

to kill him are gone.

Dr. Evans, I think you did it.

Well, it must be some sort of mistake. I have worked with Detective Brady for a long time, and there’s no way that he would ever drink on the job. Down at the docks, I smelled alcohol on his breath. At first, he tried to deny that he was inebriated, but when pressed, he admitted it. Is this true? Shawn?

I think that we, uh, we should discuss this in private commissioner, what is there to discuss? Detective, you drank on the job endangering the public commissioner. This man should be fired immediately. Yeah. To ask, this is my department and I suggest you focus on your own. Oh, I would much prefer to do that, but.

I can’t prosecute criminals if you can’t catch them. Mm-hmm. Maybe it would help if you didn’t have a bunch of drunks and losers on the payroll. Oh, well, as I recall, we actually have a suspect in there right as we speak. So maybe instead of worrying about my job, you should focus on yours and prosecute Lee Chen.

Now, if you excuse me, I have to take this. Hi, Marlena. Yeah, well, how’s it going with Michaels? What? Well, that’s great news.

Hey. Sorry, I yelled. I’m sorry too that I lied. Made you worry. I guess I just felt like I needed to take control of the situation. You. Take control of a situation. No, it’s, it’s so outta character. Stop. I’m being serious. Ever since Michael just showed to our party, I stopped thinking about how I could lose you again.

You don’t know what that’s like, lose here thinking that you’ve been gone forever. You’re right. I, I get it. I guess I’m the lucky one, huh? I didn’t have to live without you. Hard to have your heart broken when you’re in a coma, huh? Yeah, but easy to have it ripped outta your chest, literally. Hmm, true. Good point.

But hey, you didn’t have to suffer the way you did.

I mean, it was so stupid leaving your side that night to help my mother escape. That was such a bad decision. Obviously, and I suppose that tonight I made a similarly bad decision, one that could have torn us apart again. Okay, so how about we make a pact from here on out? We work as a team. After all. We are getting married in what, two weeks?

You’re right. No, you’re right. And then we’re going rogue. So we work together. We have a deal. Deal.

So you believe that leash Chen is innocent? I like if he was involved. I have no way of proving it. I, I never saw him. Mm-hmm. But what I do know is Dr. Rolfe implanted the idea that Lee was behind everything.

Okay. Well if you think of anything else, please let me know. I will brave. Now that he has been successfully deprogrammed, is it all right for him to go? You’re absolutely sure that he’s no longer a threat to Stephan or to anyone else. I will verify that myself and, uh, I’ll also testify in court that he was not responsible for what he did, and I can even submit a, an official report if that’s what you would like, I would.

Thank you. Does that mean I’m stuck here In the meantime?

Well, if Dr. Evans says that you are fine, then um, I’m not gonna argue with her. Listen, not. I wanna be keeping a close eye on you. And if for any reason that I deem you are a threat to anyone in Salem, I’m gonna slap these things right back on you. Understood. Yes, sir. Okay.

I have nothing to say to you. Not without my lawyer present. You don’t have to say a word just. Listen, Harris Michaels is changing his story. He, um, is walking back his accusation that you were the one who. Sent him to murder. Stephan Damara. Hmm. Told you I was innocent. Well, I’m not so sure about that, but lucky for you.

The only other people that can confirm or deny this new revelation have fled Salem in a submarine.

Does this mean that? I’m free to go.

So if you, uh, don’t mind. I’m gonna hang around for a little bit. Wait for Wendy to come home. What happened to give her space? Oh, you’re not doing that because I happened to live here, which is an unfair advantage, as you well know. And, and what happened to, you know, being mature about all this? Okay. Being mature doesn’t mean I’m willing to have you barging in here whenever you want to.

Putting your feet up on our coffee table.

Better.

Look, this is my apartment. I share it with Wendy. If you wanna hang out with her, you do it on your own territory or at least neutral territory. Fine. I’ll leave, you know, you know what I’ll do is I’ll, um, I’ll just call Wendy, invite her over to my mansion, uh, where our private chef is cooking up a delicious dinner tonight.

We’ll have a nice evening. Wow. Are you really going to start out how freaking wealthy your family is? Do you really think Wendy give the damn that you live in a mansion or that you have a live-in cook? I don’t think she minds it. Maybe she doesn’t mind it, but she also doesn’t give a rat’s ass, and she’s not a shallow jerk like you are.

You know, she cares about things that matter, like character intelligence. Oh, okay. So, so what you’re saying now is that, that you’re smarter than me, that you have more character. Well, guess what that is cool. Just, just go, man, disco. All right. Like I, I, I really thought that we could get past this whole teddy craft, but clearly I was wrong.

So just, just leave. Nah, I think I’ll stay. Hell, you will get outta my car. I can do that. Wait, Wendy, like that man. What, what is going on here? Uh, Wendy. Hello? I just was, uh, coming by to see how you were doing. Yep. And clearly she’s fine. So we’ll be seeing you, Johnny. Mm-hmm. Although, actually before you got here, uh, Johnny and I decided to be mature about this and not.

Petty and obnoxious and juvenile, but clearly he’s incapable and I don’t blame him.

Actually, I, uh, don’t blame neither of you for hating this. I stringing you both along, so it’s time to put an end to it.

Dr. Evans, thank you. I’m in your debt. Not at all. I am glad I could help though. And after everything you’ve done for me, I. I hate to ask for another favor. Oh, all right. What is it? I want you to have me committed to Bayview.

Thank you for letting me know. Yeah. Talk soon. My brother, apparently Michaels had a breakthrough and remembers that he wasn’t. Taking orders from Lee that, that this was a lie that Dr. Wolf implanted in his head. So EJ and Kristen were remembering accurately. They were telling the truth that Megan set Lee up.

Maybe I just can’t help shake the feeling that Lee’s and involved somehow, Wendy said Lee freaked out when she said she was coming to our party. He had to have known something. And if Lee ends up going free, he’ll definitely come after you again. I can’t let that. I mean, we can’t let that happen. That’s right.

We’re a team now.

No match for us.

So as a verdict, I spoke with Commissioner Hernandez and he confirmed that Harris Michaels can’t place you at the lab that he was being held, and he clearly remembers Dr. Rolf. Instructing him to put the blame on you. So you have nothing on me. You have to let me go for now, but I wouldn’t get too comfortable Mr.

Shin. So I’ll have my eye on you cuz I don’t like people that get away with crimes. Didn’t you decline to press charges against Talia Hunter when she poisoned half the town, including you? That young woman was in an emotionally abusive relationship. You know what my decisions are of no concern of yours.

Some might say I was in a emotionally abusive relationship with Gabby Hernandez. You really are an arrogant son of a bitch. An arrogant son of a bitch who’s free to walk outta here. Correct? Right after you get someone to uncuff me. This is the second time you’re slipping through my fingers, Mr. Shin, and I promise you next time you won’t be so lucky.

Hey, man. Um, thanks for having my back with Trask. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, I don’t take my orders from Trask. But I can’t ignore the fact that you have been drinking on the job. I, I promise it’s never gonna happen again. Oh, it’s just a one time thing, right? Except that it wasn’t right. What do you mean, Shawn? Come on.

Trust isn’t the only one who has noticed that you have been off your game. You’ve been late to work, your work’s been sloppy, you’ve been distracted. I mean, look, I’m trying to cut you some slack cause I know you were upset about your father. But I can’t look the other way anymore. Not anymore. What are you saying?

I think you need to take some time to get your act together. So until further notice, you are suspended from the force.

Johnny Trip. Look, I like you both a lot, but hitting you guys at the same time, it isn’t fair to anybody.

So it’s time for me to finally make a choice.

You mean like right now? I think it’s for the best.

Okay. Uh, Well then who is it gonna be? Is it gonna be me or…?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

So what do you think of this one? Well, I, um, it’s the best one we’ve seen. I agree, and it’s perfect for the kids. There’s a park right across the street. It’s close to the kids’ school. Each of them would have their own room, and we’d have enough space in our bedroom for a king-sized bed, our bedroom.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. I like the sound loud.

I think we should take it. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Then welcome home.

Yes. Well, we we’re gonna need the answers by next week. Sure. Um, actually, let’s not discuss the details over the phone. Okay. You know, how sensitive these deals can be. Yes. Right. Okay. I’ll see you then. Bye. You going on a trip? No, I’m moving out. Oh,

there. Hello. Wow. Do I not even get a Chloe? My wee Bonnie Las. It’s wonderful to see you. Okay. That was a bad impression. I sorry, Lauren. Not in a very jolly mood today, I’m afraid. Oh no. Oh yes. How year to date revenues are down 30% and that’s taken into account the Saxon deal. You closed. No wonder you’re not in a jolly mood.

Well, maybe this will help. Well, how could that possibly not help a flying cactus and a cowboy hat? One of the big travel websites is doing a promotion for Southwest getaways, and I’ve sold them on a huge ad buy-in for our online edition. The ad agency gave me this to work on a printed version. When you say huge buy-in, oh, why don’t you see for yourself?

Boom. Oh, that is definitely substantial, and I’m. Very relieved and back to my jolly old self. Oh, I thought you might be, have I ever told you you are absolutely fantastic at your job? Is that the only thing I’m absolutely fantastic at? That’s definitely not the only thing.

Okay. Easy there, cowboy. Did you not have enough of me this morning before work? I cannot have enough of you.

Okay. Okay. Not here. Can’t here. Come on. Why not? I mean, we’ve done it in your bedroom. We’ve done it in my bedroom. We’ve done it in every conceivable place in our apartment. Variety is a spice of life. So why don’t we shake things off a that then do it in the office.

So you accepted Dimitri’s proposal. Mm-hmm. It looks like you and I are going from friends to family, auntie Kristen. Ah, yes. Uh, congratulations. I suppose my, you are thrilled, aren’t you? I know why, though. You are surprised at how fast this is all moving.

Are you sure you don’t have a problem with me using Gwen to get what I want? No, actually, I’m not surprised at all.

I’ve got you now. Z Yvonne Ner

Sarka. How are you doing in my room? What am I doing? I am about to expose you for the delicious swindler You are? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. The jig is up. D v L. You’re only marrying Gwen to get your hands on this money. That’s preposterous. Yeah, we’ll see about that. Where do you think you’re going to tell Gwen everything and there is nothing you can do to stop.

Thank you. I think there is.

Like Sands through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Speaking of home bedrooms, we could go Chris, on this one. Oh, well we don’t have a bed. Well, that’s never stopped us before. Mm-hmm. True. Maybe we should sign the lease first. I’ll just text the realtor really quick.

So then, oh, hi. Hey, hey, hey. What’s up? Hey, Stephanie. I’m. I came to check this apartment out. I’m looking for a place for me and Rachel. Uh, too late. Sorry, Chad and I just decided to take it.

Xander, this is really not appropriate. We are at work. That’s right. And I’m your boss. You have to do what I say, which makes it even less appropriate. All right? Unless I say yes, and I say yes. It’s a definite. Definite, yeah. Mm-hmm.

So you’re not surprised that Dimitri and I got engaged so quickly? No. No. I am not, because I know how much you wanted to move on from Sander. This is not about Xander.

Dimitri, as corny as it sounds. Sort of swept me off my feet. Really? I’m sure he did. You see, my nephew can be very charming. Not to mention persuasive. I do hope your future mother-in-law’s imminent. Return to tasteful doesn’t put a damper on your impending nuptials. I wish you and Dimitri all the best.

Gwen. I really do. Thanks.

Ow. Ah, ow. Ow. Yourself. I think I just broke my hand on that cheekbone. And where were you smiling at? You were smiling at me. I was simply smiling back. I wasn’t smiling at you. I was smiling because I was right about you. I know what you’re up to. D V L. You think if you just kiss me and press that hard body of yours up against mine, that you can persuade me to indulge in the pleasures of your flesh in exchange for my silence.

You think if you get me into bed and satisfy every single one of my wanting desires, I won’t tell Gwen what you’re up to. So am I. Right.

That’s odd. Usually in by now.

Oh my God.

What the hell is going on here? We were just going over Chloe’s new Abbi. To me, it looks like you were just going over Chloe. Okay. You know what, I’m gonna go get some coffee. Does anyone want anything? Yes, please. I’d like you to get the hell out of here. Thanks. Oh, look for the first time you and I want the same thing except for me, obviously.

I’m so sorry that sounded so much funnier in my head. See you soon.

Sandier, your cactus is looking a bit pricker from the last time I saw it. I wanna have a doctor have a look at it. There’s nothing wrong for Mike. Cactus.

Sorry, you had to see that you’re not nearly as sorry as I am and not because I’m jealous. Mind you. No, not in the least. See, I don’t care if you are having sex with Chloe Lane or Lady Gargo, or Miss Bloody Piggy for that matter. You know why? Cause I’m quite busy myself, actually. Yes. Giving an amazing man the most amazing sex that a woman can give him.

So there

No. No sir. Despite whatever rumors you may have heard. To the contrary, I am not that easy, and now that I know for sure that you’re just marrying Gwen so you can cash in on your inheritance. She needs to know the truth.

Wish she doesn’t know can hurt her. Sorry, not interested.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Maybe I would be interested if you hadn’t just made my best friend an offer, a trove. And if you weren’t just some douchey straight guy trying to take advantage of my insatiable sexual appetite, Leo. What? I’m not, not what? Engaged to Glen. I’m not straight.

Well damn. Then I’m having a really hard time solidifying a place here. I just lost one to Xander and Chloe, and I’m gonna have to fire my real estate agent because I’m always coming in late to these listings. I don’t like it. Oh, well I could refer you to our, she’s really good. I would actually very much appreciate that.

Doesn’t, uh, enjoy your place, um, and enjoy your new job. Uh, I don’t have his new job. How’d you hear about it? Alex told me and Chad, he, uh, he wasn’t too happy about it.

Yeah. You’re moving out. Why? I’m just not that comfortable here anymore, auntie. I haven’t been sleeping well. Well, you have one in the nicest rooms in the West Wing. You’re welcome to choose another. I mean, if it’s the mattress, I’m sure Henderson can find one more to you. Liking. No, no, no. It’s not the mattress or the room that’s making me feel uncomfortable.

It’s you.

What do you mean? Megan escaped? Well, ej, why wouldn’t I be worried that satis had us tied up in the secret room for weeks? You know, I, I wouldn’t be surprised if she just takes us all out one by one. Oh my God. Okay. Okay. No, I, I appreciate the heads up. All right. You just watch your back.

Oh,

Megan, don’t you come near me. I’m warning you. I armed. I’m not Auntie Megan.

Honey, whoop. Oh my God. Oh, sweetheart.

We’re gonna need a lot of furniture, huh? Couch. Coffee table beds, dining table. It’s a lot of shopping. Oh. Oh, perfect. Our realtor’s coming over with keys and some paperwork we need to sign. She’s gonna be here in an hour. Okay, that gives me time to, uh, run over to Maggie’s and let her know my decision.

Good luck.

I’ll be back soon,

Shirley. Surely you can understand that I just don’t wanna live in the same house with the woman who fired me. You are the one. Who signed with Titan’s biggest competitor. You stole a client, a huge client away from me, auntie Mag. That is just not what happened. Mm, nope. I’m sorry. I get it. That is how you see the deal that I made with Yuri.

That’s not how I see it. That’s what you did. Well then we’re just gonna have to agree to disagree on that. But I’m sure there’s one thing that we can both agree on and that this living situation isn’t healthy for either of us. Did you at least say goodbye to your Uncle Victor? No. He was taking a nap. I didn’t wanna wake him.

I’ll see you around Auntie Alex. Hi. Whatever has happened between us, it doesn’t change the fact that we’re, we’re still family and we always will be. Yeah. Family.

So, uh, where are you gonna live? I will let you know when I find a place. I’ll see you around.

Hey. Hi. Got a button? This one. Oh, uh, I was running late this morning. Yeah, how are you? Ah, um, okay. I don’t say I’m a little frustrated. I’ve been trying to find a, find a place to live for Rachel and me. I just lost another one to Stephanie and Chad and I don’t know, I was hoping to find a place before Rachel came back from camp.

Well, I’m sorry, this is her camp. She probably wants more credit on her camp account or something. Hello? Yeah. What do you mean missing? When what? Well, where the hell could she have gone?

Oh my baby girl. I have missed you so much. Oh, mom, stop, honey. Sue, I, I’m just so happy to see you. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a minute. What? What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be at camp. What do you care? You never even came to see me before I left. You never even said goodbye, honey. You know what that is?

Because mean old auntie Megan had me locked up in the basement. Wait for real? Yes, sweetheart. For real. Oh sweetie. There’s nothing else that could possibly have kept me from seeing you off. Oh God. Oh honey, I am so happy that you came to see me, but um, I’m gonna have to take you back to camp. No. No way

you, you’re seriously going to look me in the eye and tell me that you are queer with a straight face, a very straight face. That is what I’m telling you. Okay, so we have very quickly moved on from you thinking I have absolutely no scruples to you thinking I’m just playing stupid. Oh no. I don’t think you’re stupid Leo, but you want me to believe that you’re gay?

I am. But you’re sleeping with Gwen. You proposed to her? Yes. Only to get access to the money in the bomb. Was she cosol? And since, as we have established you are anything but stupid, you have known all along that I’ve had an ulterior motive. And now you know what that is.

We’re listen. I overheard Dimitri Van Loser bragging about proposing to you and I, I suppose I can even see why you might be attracted to him, even though we both know that blokes from Northwest and Europe are more your time. Oh, that is ridiculous. But even if he is an amusing distraction for you, Gwen, that insufferable man’s so full of himself, how can, how can he possibly have room in his heart left for you?

I mean, why would you even consider marrying such a narcissistic, pompous jerk? Excuse me. But Dimitri is none of those things. He’s actually very caring, generous, and loyal, wonderful person who happens to be head over heels in love with me as I am with him. And I’m not contemplating marrying him. I’ve said yes to Dimitri.

I am marrying him. And you know what? I cannot wait to be his wife there.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. It’s not the marrying Gwen, so you can get your grubby hands all over your family’s money thing. It’s the gay thing. I have excellent gay and from you. I haven’t gotten a single ping. I had a lifetime at practice not giving up pings. But it’s not just that you’re stripping. Gwen, you also had that flinging with Billy Reed.

I was playing Agent Reed as well to get my hands on the Almanian peacock. Yeah. Now you’re playing me to get up my. Subterranean peacock. No, it’s not like that. Then what is it like? And keep in mind I am neither stupid nor gullible, nor naive, nor a pushover, though the last one may be a little, which I hate, but I’m working on it.

Right? Well, that’s good for you. Look, um, I am imploring you to reveal neither my intentions nor my sexual orientation to anyone, and I’m willing to give myself to you as a means to that end. But you should also know that I don’t consider it any kind of sacrifice as I am very much looking forward to it, giving myself to you.

That is, well, strike me pink. Are you trying to tell me that you’re attracted to me? For someone who asks. We have established is not at all stupid. That sure took you a minute, Leo? Yes. Yes I am.

Gwen, are you sure this is a good idea? You just met this guy. You know the horrific things he’s done.

Okay. Sure. Yeah, I know he hasn’t led an exemplary life, but you know what he says that I bring out the best in him,

and you will know how I like bad boys. I’m no angel myself. Am I

what? What are you thinking? Just say it. I just can’t help but wonder if maybe this has less to do with you being in love with Dimitri and more to do with me getting together with Chloe. Oh God, look, there it is again. Usual, massive ego. No, no, it’s not. It’s not about that. And you know what? Even if it was so what?

You’ve moved on from me, haven’t you? I would very much like to move on from you, so I would actually say this is a very positive step in the right direction. Wouldn’t you share with us, Dimitri? Can you just stop please? Why can’t you just be happy for me? Zander. Jake cheated on me. Chad was in love with Abigail and you, you never really got over.

Sarah, did you? And now for the first time in my life, there is a man who wants to be with me and only me.

I wanna be with you, Leo Stark. Since when? Since the first time I laid eyes on you in Arizona. Oh, please. The way I remember it, you were totally into Billy Reed and totally annoyed by me all the time. And then I stole your emerald and you wanted to kill me. I never wanted to kill you. If anything, any antagonism that you felt for me was just my attempt to hide my desire for you.

But the truth of the matter is, Leo, I have always found you attractive. I think you are so interesting. You’re smart and witty. That definitely smile and that expressive eyes and that sassy little walk of yours. My walk. Mm-hmm. No one’s ever commented on my walk before or thought my eyes were expressive or thought that I was witty.

Funny, yes, but never witty, which is just a smarter version of funny, right. Well, you are all of the above and everything I just said that I liked about you, just the tip of the iceberg. But besides all that, and perhaps most importantly, Leo, I think you are so hot now. I understand that you don’t wanna betray your best friend, but really is it any better than betraying your own desires?

This hate between us, it is undeniable. This pole, it’s a gravity that neither of us can fight for much longer. I know I certainly can’t.

Okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Okay. I will give myself to you, but you have to promise me one thing. Anything. You’ll be gentle. Oh, I’ll good. Because I won’t

Yeah, well, you, you do that. Okay. Thank you very much. God, wait, so Rachel’s missing. Yeah. She left camp. Yeah. Yeah. And unlike those incompetent counselors I have. Pretty good idea of where she went to see Kristen. Yeah. Odd are She’s with her mother right now. Mama Kim is so stupid. I wanna stay here with you.

Oh, honey, honey, honey, I wish you could, but there’s a lot going on with this family right now and it’s very, very complicated. And besides, you know that your daddy has full custody of you and he’s the one who gets to make the decisions. In fact, I need to call him right now. I thought we were fighting that he’s having custody.

I’m trying. It’s been very, very hard, Rachel. I need a lawyer to help me and. No one wants to take my case. There has to be somewhere that we can be together. Mama isn’t there, please.

Ah, Chad, what can I do for you? Well, um, I came to give you my decision. Oh, well. Oh, I hope you decided to come to work for me at Titan. I think we could do great things together.

I think so too.

Living room. Ivory white paper. White. White. Dove. Too many choices.

Hey Alex, what are you doing here? Well, I was hoping to move in.

It’s true. What is, you do have a magic penis. No, no. I, I thought I’d seen it all when you made it levitate with that thing you did at the end.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. No, no. Uh, this can’t go on. Not like this. Gwen is my best friend. So what are you saying? You mean we can’t see each other again? Oh, hell no. That is definitely not what I’m saying. But you cannot marry her. You have to walk back that proposal. And yes, she will be hurt, but she would be way more hurt being the wife of a gay man and I can walk her through that misery and help her.

And how are you going to help her when you’re involved with the man that’s just turned his back on her? Well, maybe we can leave that part out. My involvement with you, it doesn’t matter anyway, because she’s already said yes to my proposal. What. When, just earlier today we’re at Mother’s Bedside in the hospital and she hadn’t said yes yet, but then we had this strong connection, this, this bonding of sorts and so and so.

She said, yes. Damn Leo. I genuinely like Gwen, but it’s you that I want badly. So if we could, you know, have more times like this, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, what are you suggesting that you marry Gwen and keep me as some sort of side piece? That is not happening. D v L? No way. No. How do you know what’s at stake here?

I will lose a staggering amount of money if I’m not married by the time I turn 40 and I turn 40 at the end of the month. Oh, right. Damn well, I would hate to see you lose all that money, but this situation we find ourselves and it does beg a major question. Mm-hmm. What’s that? Okay, so the Cota Soul says that you have to tie the knot before you turn the big 4.0 to inherit the V millions.

Mm-hmm. But does it say anything specifically? About tying knot with someone of the female persuasion.

Why Leo Starr? Are you asking me to marry him? I can’t be sure if it Dimitri guy is being straight with you. You know he’s a conman. I don’t want to hear it. Yeah, I just don’t think it’s in your interest such proposal right now. Your blood. Yeah, I just, I just want you to be happy, but. Especially after, you know how I hurt you

each other.

I know that I’m taking a chance here, but. I’m neither naive nor stupid, Sandra. I know that. I know. You can hand yourself up. I’ll shut up now. Well, that’s a relief. Just be careful with that guy. Yeah.

I appreciate your concern.

You know what I don’t appreciate though, is you fornicating all over the bloody office. So if you don’t mind, perhaps some sanitizing that desk over there and anywhere else where your bums may have rubbed against. Yes, ma’am.

Oh, we’ll work out all the details of your contract. Yeah. Um, should we be pleased with the terms? I’m, I’m, I’m sure I will be. Oh no. Oh, I’m so happy about this. Yes, I’m too, today has been, uh, uh, a day. I, uh, I have a new job. Stephanie and I, we found an apartment together. Oh, that’s wonderful. What great news.

Yeah. Um, yeah. Just one thing though, about what, um, Yeah, and it’s really none of my business, but I was just wondering if, um, if, if it’ll be at all uncomfortable for you and Victor with Alex living here, but working for Demaro. Well, you know, you don’t have to worry about that anymore. Alex just moved out.

Things just started to get really awkward, so I figured it was time to move out. Plus, I’m ready for my own place anyway. Makes sense. Yeah. But apparently Salem is a hot rental market. Brady was just here looking at this apartment too. But um, Chad and I had already decided to take it. Oh, well then I should say congratulations.

Thank you.

And speaking of awkward, I should probably tell you before you hear it from anyone else. Chad decided to take your old job at Titan. Ah, well good for him. Yeah, he’s excited about it.

I just, I hope this doesn’t set us back, you and me. I mean, why would it? Too bad. You and I have gotten to a really good place, even after everything we’ve. Been through and now with Chad at Titan and you at Demara. Not to mention the fact that he and I will be living together. I just, I don’t want things to change that I’d really want, I’d really like for us to be friends.

I’d really like that too, but for now, I’m gonna go find myself a place to live. See you soon.

No, I’d find you here. Where else would I be? Hm? What’s wrong, Brady? You know damn well. What’s wrong, Chris? Where’s our daughter?

Hey. Hey. Is Maggie thrilled that you accepted her options? She was thrilled. So was I. Me too. Congratulations. Yeah, it’s been a good day. Did um, did the realtor come by with the papers yet? Not yet. Perfect timing, but that’s her. Hey there kids. I have here the keys to your new place as well as the lease for you to sign.

How did you get, what are you talking about? Well, I got ’em from the realtor. She asked if I could drop ’em off on my way home. Yeah, but you don’t live anywhere near here? I do now. I got a place in the building directly across the hall from you guys. Hm.

Hey you. So how did it go with Gwen? That’s something you might expect. She was in an unusually good mood.

Are you okay Chloe? Yeah, I, I’m sorry. I’m just a little bit worried. Um, I ran into Brady when I went to get coffee and he said that Rachel went missing from her camp. She’s missing, that’s terrible. What’s going? Yeah. But he has a pretty good idea as to where she went.

Missing, but what are you talking about? Do they think she ran away? Are they looking for her? Oh, you, you didn’t, you didn’t know. Of course. I didn’t know. I mean, how would I, I mean, you’d never put me on their contact list. What the hell are you kidding? Kristen? Let’s, let’s just not do these mind games.

Let’s not do ’em right now. Okay. Do one who set her up at this camp? Mr. I have full custody, Kristen. Just tell the truth for once. This is for a change. Are you hiding her here or not? I swear to you, if Rachel were here, I would tell you

voicemail. Damn.

Hi, Matty, it’s me. I was really hoping you’d pick up. Um, I wanted to share with you the news in person, um, but I just couldn’t wait to share this wonderful news with my most trusted and loyal friend. Ready?

I said yes to Dimitri and call me crazy. But, um, for the first time in my life, I think I might actually have a chance of real happiness.

What if I was asking you to marry me? You are not gonna gimme grief, are you? For not getting down on bended knee, which would be redundant given what I just did. Uh, no. No. This has nothing to do with the informality of your proposal and everything to do with my old world family and its old world values.

I wish that they were open-minded enough to accept the marriage between any consenting adults, but alas, that is not the case. Now. The codicil is perfectly clear. I must be married to a woman. Oh, I guess I missed that part. Mm-hmm.

The thing is, Gwen really likes you. I think maybe she even loves you. Yes. But I promise you I will take care of Gwen in my own way. But you have to promise me that no one will know about this, especially her. It’ll.

What are you thinking?

Just that I have thrown myself at more men than a groupie at a month long music festival, and they always turn out to be either too straight, too nice. Well, now you know I’m neither there.

Promise me this isn’t just some kind of trick I swear in my family name. For whatever that’s worth. I swear that this is not a trick. Now you have to swear to me, Leo, that no one will know about us by what just happened, but I hope happens again, again and again. I swear on my honor. It’ll be our little secret.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

abe, my friend,

best friend of man, could ever have.

Humana been part of my life for such a long time.

Just knowing you were there,

comfort me

and you know exactly what to say to. Help me

get outta my own head.

I wonder if you ever knew what that meant to me and how I treasured of, I’m French.

We gave it our all. Buddy, we, we searched for you. I alone,

and then,

and then Steve and John. Me, you know, doing whatever I could to help. We, and we, we beat the bushes, we, we canvassed the whole damn town, including these docks. So I don’t understand, but I don’t damn well understand

going hell. Why in the hell we can never find you? Before, before

God part.

She So I,

you were such a special man. God was you special.

Pete and I, we’ll both miss you so much.

No.

Gabby, what are you doing in Megan’s room? What the hell are you doing In my sister’s bed?

So just to be clear, you. You just said yes. Yes. And just to be extra clear, yes. Demetri, I will marry you.

Well, Mr. Stock, I’m waiting. Would you mind telling me why you were robbing my ancestral home? Robbing. That is a strong word. Why would you think I was robbing? I. Oh, this isn’t the cork screw I was looking for. Silly me. Speaking of which I hear it’s like Tuscany down in that cell, an abundance of exceptional wines for every pallet.

You may wanna try the kitchen. Yeah. Um, there’s a corkscrew, I think, in the drawer, in the left hand side, right underneath the espresso machine. Will do. Thank you. Great. Leo, that was sarcasm. Oh, and here, I thought you were being gracious and hospitable. Look, I don’t know what you’re doing, but you’re gonna have plenty of time to talk with Salem’s Finest.

You see, I’m gonna call the police. I’m calling.

The judge called us into Tams right after he broke for lunch. Hey, hey, no worries. I uh, got us drinks. Oh good. I see it’s like 95 degrees outside

something the matter, you know, what’s the matter? Sean, you’re on duty. Do you think you should be drinking?

Like Sam through the hour class, so are lives,

oh, come on, Kristin, the police. There is no crime being committed here. I’m just a normal everyday guy. Who’s studying for his sommelier exam in October. Okay. You know, just stop the adorable little yarn before you even put a spin on it. What were you doing forcing your way into that drawer? I. Okay. I’m not studying to be a someone, but it is on my bucket list and I am something of a wine connoisseur.

Mm-hmm. And also a jewelry connoisseur as well. Yeah. I believe it was a little over a year ago when you broke in here and stole my sister-in-law, Abigail’s precious gems. And that was also the night she just happened to be murdered, which I had nothing to do with. And believe me, I have paid the consequences of my ill timed revenge kick witch along with smoking and snorting baby powder.

I’m totally off of now, I swear. So what pretail are you on now? I’m not on anything. I am merely in search of the truth, an honorable and noble pursuit. No. And what truth are you in pursuit of Mr. Stock? I’m trying to get the goods on D V L.

So you mean it, you’ll really marry me. Yes. Yes. I mean, how many languages would you like me to say? Hate in Portuguese or Cantonese, perhaps. No, no, no. English is fine. I’m just, I’m, I’m surprised, delighted, don’t get me wrong, but surprised. Yes. Well, I, I know I, I was hesitant at the beginning, but um,

I changed my mind, obviously when your mother was shot, so you said yes. Because of my mother,

come sit with me. Mm-hmm.

It was partly because of what your mother said when we went to go and visit her in the hospital. What she said about seizing opportunities with courage and not letting life pass you by.

But really it was you. I could see how much you love her and how scared you were to lose her,

and

it was more to it than that. I just suppose I saw another side to you, Dimitri’s side, that’s tender and. Vulnerable. One that doesn’t really get a lot of air time, if you will.

And I looked at you and I realized that you are. You are not just some criminal mastermind in more than that. You are not just some man who imprisoned Kate on that fishing boat. Or tried to blow up the whole bloody world with an almanian peacock.

You’re human. Dimitri,

a beautiful human at that.

What am I doing here? What? What do you think I’m doing here? Does it look like it’s by choice? Well, I mean, I wouldn’t think you and Stephan would choose Megan wrong for your kinky sex rom. Not funny. And where the hell is Megan? Well, that’s the burning question, unfortunately. See, I came here to see that.

Sick bitch was the one behind Harris’ attempt on Stephan’s life because Lee kept on insisting that she was the mastermind behind it all. So I figured the only way to know the truth is to come here and confront her face to face.

Hi. Hi.

I just thought I’d come down and pay my respects as well.

It’s just so senseless, unfair that he’s gone so soon.

How are you? Oh, well, with the baby, I hope. Yeah, I, uh, I had a follow up appointment with the doctor and she said that everything seems fine. That’s great. I’m sure HJ thinks so too.

Actually he wasn’t there.

Gabby, you were right about me. My just hypnotized me. Long story short, a memory surface of my sister admitting that she was gonna have Stephan killed. Oh my God. That’s psychopath. Mm. I came here to choke the truth out of her. Oh, I came up here to do the same. And it appears she turned the tables on you, but considering she’s recovering from a gunshot wound, how the hell does she manage that?

It’s like you said, it’s 90 something degrees out. I mean, I can’t help it if I’m thirsty Bell. It’s just, it’s a beer. That’s it. John, you’re working and I’m on my lunch break. All right. I’m not drunk.

What? What? Go ahead. Go ahead and tell me what you’re thinking. You know what I’m thinking, what That I, that I have a drinking problem. But then I need to go to aa. Maybe I need to get a sponsor. I need to make amends to the, to the kid whose m and ms I stole in the second grade. Is that just to get him close there?

Huh? Okay. You know, Shawn, I have tried to give you space because I know that you’re in pain. I know that you’re, you’re suffering terribly about what happened with your dad, and I get it. I get that you feel a lot of guilt and regret, and you’re trying to numb that with alcohol. But I am not gonna enable this anymore.

This has to stop. D V L. What the hell is that? Uh, your nephew, Dimitri von Leischner. Does that ring a bell? Well, why the hell would you wanna get the goods on him? Oh my God. Are you hing a schoolboy crush? Perhaps? No. I’m not harboring anything but suspicion and a desire to make sure that my friend Gwen, whom he’s weirdly determined to marry, does not get hurt.

Well, that is a hell of a way to get yourself uninvited from the wedding. Mr. Breaking and entering. Well, maybe you could get a job on the catering staff. Hmm. Well, since I was summarily dismissed from my last catering job, after the hostess caught me eating artichoke cini and her heart-shaped jacuzzi, highly unlikely.

Let’s just get back to the topic at hand, shall we? It is rather presumptuous of you to think that my nephew ISN insincere in his marriage proposal. Oh, please. I have seen videos of kittens riding on robot vacuums that have gone on longer than those two know each other. Don’t you remember any of this? I told you about it when I found you and EJ in the secret room and you said it sounded vaguely familiar.

Are you telling me you have no idea why Dimitri is so eager to get Gwen to say I do? Even if that means deceiving a woman who is apparently a good friend of yours. Are you sure you don’t have a problem with me using Gwen to get what I want?

Oh, Gwen, you just make me so happy whenever I’m with you. I, I always feel like the man that I always was meant to be. You’re the only one that can bring who’s ever brought that out in me, and I promise you. You will not regret this. I bloody hope not. At least not before I publish the engagement announcement in this spectator.

Well, speaking of shall we make it official?

Oh boy.

So beautiful, Dimitri. It’s beautiful.

My beautiful ring for my beautiful bride to be.

Hey, Jay, didn’t go to your appointment with you. Well, he and Kristen went to see your mother to see if she could help them, remember why Megan pulled them into that secret room. But don’t you think EJ could have waited till after you’ve gone to your doctor’s appointment? I mean, considering the scare you had the other day?

He wanted to go to my appointment, but I told him it was more important that he recovered his memory, if that’s even possible, to make his lunatic sister pay for what she’s done. So this never happens again. I’m sorry. Completely none of my business. I was just concerned about you after the scare you had.

Thank you, Eric. But EJ is also concerned about his unborn child and he loves this baby and he loves me

and I love him.

Well, I showed up here and there she was, Megan Demara lying in this bed, helpless, like a little turtle on its back. I had her right where I wanted. She was about to tell me the truth that she si Harris on Stephan. And then somebody grabbed me from behind. Who? Dr. Rolfe. Rolfe. He was the one who did this to you?

Yeah. He surprised me, but I could have taken that bastard easy. So he struggled a little bit and then he managed to get the better of me. So you are saying this isn’t one of those, you should see the other guy type of thing? Unfortunately not. Okay. But wait, what prompted Dr. Rolfe to come back? Apparently he was keeping tabs on EJ and Kristen and when he found out that they had recovered their memories, he showed up here to whisk Megan away to safety.

Bitch didn’t even leave me or applesauce. Do you have any idea where they went? No, I don’t know, but Rolfe mentioned something about a submarine.

I shouldn’t question AJ’s devotion to you or the baby. It’s just. You need your reaction after all those weeks that he left you alone.

I understand. And I, I’m sorry too. I I didn’t mean to jump down your throat. No, you don’t have to be,

can’t imagine the pain you’re going through right now after everything that’s happened with the baby and no. It’s just, it’s just so heartbreaking.

I know this has gotta be painful for you too.

Thank you.

It’s just, I still can’t believe he’s gone. I. And it’s so unfair. He was such a good man, and the only reason this happened was because he was looking out for Paulina and Chanel. I mean, he looked out for everybody that he loved and he always looked out for me, that’s for sure. Like your father. And now I just.

I know. I’ll miss him. I’ll miss him.

Well, EJ shot outta here like a rocket. As much as I wanted to catch Megan. I’m sure she’s at the bottom of the C bite now. No, I used to, I used to date a submariner. I remember him talking about one of the cooks made it to die for her lobster. This, oh, fascinating. You know what, instead of blathering on about C, why don’t you help me outta these cuffs?

Oh, oh, oh, of course. That’s right. Oh, wait a minute. I forgot my trustee. Hacksaw. Yeah. Wasn’t thinking so. Call the cops. Cops. Yeah. Who else? I mean some. I’m sure somebody in the department will take an interest in freeing the commissioner’s sister.

Uh huh. What is that number? You know the number. And as soon as you’re done, why don’t you tell me why you’re even here. Got a dog in this fight, Kate.

You know, I’m fine. Fine. You’re the boss, Sean. You know what? Actually, why don’t I skip lunch too? Hmm. I mean, who needs to eat anyway? Right? And you know what? While I’m at it, why don’t I just go turn in my badge and join a monastery like son, stop. What are you doing? I lost my appetite, bill. And you know what?

And since you’re so tired of finding empty bottles, There you go. I left you a full one.

What was that all about?

You’re remembering something, aren’t you? That is the face of someone remembering something.

In any case, when I do convince Gwen to marry me, it’ll be for richer and not for poorer. You, uh, may be onto something about Dimitri having an underlying agenda. Oh my God, Kristen Deira. If you remember your Prodigal nephew’s real reason for wanting to marry Gwen, then in the name of all that is holy spill the tea.

Please look, like I said before, this is not about me. This is about my best friend she deserves to know, and, and you care about Gwen, right? The two of you were cellmates at Statesville. And I’ve seen the Shawshank Redemption twice. Well, it caught bits and pieces enough to know that the two of you must have had a special bond.

We were cellmates for all of 24 hours. Not sure how much special bonding we achieved. Yeah, Kristen, look, if you know that Dimitri is going to break Gwen’s heart into a million little pieces, You owe it to her to tell me,

I hate to do this, but what? I should go right now. I need to tell my mother. I need to tell her the the wonderful news. Wait, can’t we just. Mm. I don’t know. Can’t we just like track down a, a carrier pigeon or something to give her the message? God. Okay. Right. Yes. Fine. That’s your mother. Something wrong. No, it, it’s just, I don’t know.

I just. Ah, I just thought maybe just, maybe we could, um,

So he’s hitting a bottle hard, huh? Yeah. He’s still struggling with what happened with Beau. Damn. I was hoping he, he’s up on himself on there. Yeah. Well, he’s not, I keep telling him there’s nothing he could have done differently, know that he was just forced to make a terrible choice. I told him that. Told him the same damn thing, but doesn’t say more than I hear.

Yeah, but that’s the thing is he knows nobody blames him. He just can’t stop blaming himself. Okay. The police are on their way. Yeah. I guess we’ll just listen to the sirens. Hmm. Hopefully they get here before I start to chafe. Oh, do you want me to call them? Tell them to stop for some hour along the way?

No, actually, I’d like for you to answer the question that I asked earlier. That’s so funny. I don’t remember a question. Anyway, I have to get going. So stop right there. Okay. See, I know you, I know you very well and I know when you’re hiding something, and I’m guessing it has to do with Megan, and if that’s true, it’s very important that I know.

So tell me. How are you involved with her?

Oh, each, uh,

I was just leaving flowers for Aen. I pumped into Eric. Uh, It looks like a very moving tribute. He was obviously loved by many. But what, what are you doing here? Did you get a chance to see Marlena? I did. Yes. Yes, I did. Uh, your mother’s hypnosis proved quite effective memories of what occurred, and that secret room came flooding back.

And once they did, I took it upon myself to confront Megan Mano, or Mano only to find and much to my displeasure that she’s absconded from the hospital. What, how it appears Wilhelm Rolfe provided a helping hand. Do you have any idea where they could have gone well here? Oh, so I thought apparently Elvis had the same idea that I had because when I arrived at the hospital, I found Gabby Hernandez trust up in Megan’s handcuffs, courtesy of.

Dr. Rolfe, but Gabby did say before Megan was spirited away, that Rolfe mentioned something about a, a submarine, which is why I came down to the docks. But if my sister was here, um, it appears she’s long gone.

How am I involved with Megan? Oh, let’s see. That’s right. She’s the one who tried to have me killed. So you came by to what? Finish her off. No, that sleeping with the fishes isn’t exactly what the monster deserves.

So tell me, which one of you idiots let Megan Hathaway escape

you? You’re right When, and I did bond when we were at Statesville. I taught her everything she needs to know about Texas. Hold. Great. Great. So then you’ll help her. I already have, as I informed my nephew when I got the pardon from the governor, I got one for Gwen as well. So if anything Miss Riz check.

Well, she’s in debt to me. Uh ooh. If we’re talking about debts, then you, Sirina, Deira are in Deto. Tomio. Am I. And how’s that? Well, if I hadn’t been Johnny on the spot and shown up when I did, you and EJ would still be tied up in the secret room. Well then I’ll just make sure to send you one of those edible arrangements.

So that’s it. You de mirrors just close ranks and screw everybody else. We de mirrors protect what’s ours speaking of, are you gonna shove off? What do I actually have to call the police?

Fine, I’ll go. But word of warning. This is not the last you have seen of Mr. Leo Stark. A K a Maddie Cooper. But do not ever call me that. Only when he gets to.

You know, it might not be the, um, most appropriate time to bring up. Mothers. But, um, I think yours would be quite pleased to know what kept her waiting, but perhaps just, um, leave out the specifics of why we were delayed. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Definitely not. No, I would say we just keep it to, we got held up celebrating.

I know how it’s possible, but somehow you are more enchanting every single time. I,

I can’t wait to,

and why should we wait? We can go to the courthouse right now. We could be legally married by this afternoon. Before they even throw out the first pitch, the Cubs came.

Are you serious? You get married today? Yeah. With the heading of strike while the iron’s hot. Mm. I’m not really sure that that applies to its marriage. Um, and I, I’ll admit, I what

I. Hoping for something just a wee bit more romantic, huh? Well, what could be more romantic than the two of us proclaiming our undying love for each other? Just you and me.

Just you? Me? Mm-hmm. And the county clerk. I mean, it’s not exactly eloping to some nice tropical island. Is it saying our vows under the cover of darkness? I think it’d be nice to have a swaying palm tree close by, perhaps some dolphins doing some sorts in the background. So you want to get married in the screensaver.

Are you suggesting that I’m shallow? Mr. Vaughn Ner? Never. No. I was just teasing because that’s the last thing you are, that’s kind of you.

Honestly, I don’t, I don’t even know what I want, which is why I was hoping for the time to figure it out before we say I do. Really? What’s the hurry darling?

Damn, some young entrepreneurs should, uh, disrupt the handcuff industry. Find something a little smoother on the wrist. Okay, so lemme get this straight here. So, okay, so, so Megan escaped in a submarine. Yeah. I mean, I, I don’t know, obviously, but the Rolf mentioned he had one. Yeah. Well, did he mention, was it yellow?

Was Ringo star waiting to board? Uh, how long ago did they leave? I don’t know, an hour, give or take. Okay, good, good. Maybe there’s a chance I can still catch up with him.

Okay. So if he thinks he’s going to catch up with Megan and Rolf, he’s the one that’s an idiot. Well, the police are on their way and not that it will do much good. I assume Megan is halfway to Bermuda by now. Okay. Listen, I know it’s gonna take time. But justice will catch up to her eventually. One can help.

So, um, how did it go with the doctor? Well, she said the same thing that Tripp said in the er, that the baby is perfectly healthy. Thank God that is, that is brilliant news. Mm-hmm. Oh, that reminds me, I, uh, made arrangements with that, uh, specialist, the perinatologist. I’m flying her back in. I think she’d rather appreciated the first class ticket.

Oh, ej. But I, I told you the baby’s fine. So there’s no needs. I have every faith in your physician. I just, I just wanted to bring Dr. Laurenson back into the fold because I hated that I missed the first appointment with her. Especially since she gave you such excellent news about the baby and over the coming months.

I want to learn everything I can about what we need to do in preparation for bringing our baby into this world, and I want to do that as a couple together.

You’re absolutely right. Of course there’s no rush. It’s just that I’ve been waiting for someone like you my entire life, and I’m a little bit impatient, obviously.

Yes, I know the feeling. It’s just that, um, after one rather disastrous attempt. I’ve never been married before, and so I really, I really wanna make it something special.

I promise you, Glen, it will be. So how does the end of the month sound? It is enough time for you to gather a few girlfriends for a bridal shower in the next couple of weeks and have to make some phone calls, but if it all works out, I think I might have a fabulous destination in mind at the end of this month.

Oh, yeah, isn’t time for my birthday? My, uh, my 40th actually. Oh yes. Um, how’s that relevant? Well, now it’s gonna sound a bit silly, but, um, well, I made a promise to myself a while back that, that I would be married by the time I turned 40, and I hate breaking promises, especially to myself, but my 40, oh, um, well, it just feels like a significant milestone.

Uh, it’s a time where I should finally become the man. I’m meant to be a man who is mature and um, A man who was settled,

a man that you deserve, Gwen,

right then we shall celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday. Right after our very fabulous wedding.

Okay, Dimitri, you gorgeous little international fugitive. Surely you’ve left some breadcrumbs for lady whistleblower, something that will explain why you are so eager to get hitched

Dema. You sweet smelling. Son of a bitch.

Oh no, Leo, focus. You’re here for Gwen. Remember

nothing. Nothing. I feel like Geraldo and Al Capone’s Vault. Hi, Leo. You’re dating yourself.

Oh, I pray that the Salem PD steps up to the plate this time and finds that damn submarine. Well, considering all the havoc that Megan’s inflicted on everyone, I’m sure they’re highly motivated.

Listen, I, I just wanna say that. When you showed up on the docks and saw me hugging Eric, you, you don’t have to explain. Well, I, I feel like I, DOJ you were visiting Abe’s Memorial. It makes sense that you would see comfort in your friend, and that’s all it was. I, I’m really grateful that you understand.

Nicole, we love each other. We’re having a baby together. That’s all that matters to me, and I promise you this,

my priority from now on is you and me and a precious little baby.

Hey, you’re site for Surah. Wow. Hey, tough morning. Hey. Uh, yeah, it was kind of where you in? Uh, the hospital. Oh, the hospital? Yes. I wanted to go by and check up on Command Harris, make sure he doesn’t get into any anymore trouble, you know? You know what though? Macon escaped while I was there. What? Yeah. What did police say?

Well, yes, Shawn, Shawn showed up right when I was leaving. He’s on the case, you know, so hopefully they find her.

Hey mom, it’s me, Shawn. Uh, listen, um, I hate pulling you away from dad like this, but, uh, there’s something that you need to know, but Megan, she’s on the loose again. Look, I like, I hate scaring you like this, but I just need to make sure that you’re being extra careful. All right. The last thing I want is for you and dad to get hurt any worse than you already have been.

Yeah, of course, of course. I love you too. And, um, tell dad, tell dad that I love him and that I’m thinking about him. I’m thinking about him every second of every day and not that, not that he can hear you. Yeah, no. Of co Yeah, of course. I may. Yeah. You know what? Maybe he can, I, I, yeah, I hope so. Listen, so I, if anything changes, I will let you know as soon as possible.

Okay. All right, bye.

Hello? Hello, Kristen, I heard about your ordeal in the Dema Secret Room. Uh, well, nothing a, uh, bitter tasting cappuccino won’t fix. Well, I’m glad to see you are None the worst for wear. Mm. Well, my memory’s still a little fuzzy and, uh, few unsettling dreams, but, uh, other than that, no lasting damage, hopefully.

Oh, how are you? I’m engaged.

I’ve got you now. Z Yvonne Leischner.

Star, how are you doing in my room? What am I doing? I’m about to expose you for the malicious swindler You are? No, no, no. Dvl. The jig is up. You’re only marrying Gwen to get your hands on this money. That’s preposterous. Oh yeah. We’ll see about that. Where do you think you’re going to tell Gwen everything And there’s nothing you can do to stop me?

No, I think there is.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Two, one. How about you? In here, you’re giving the police a hard time refusing to answer any of their questions. I believe that’s my right. You think Stonewalling is gonna help you? You’re hired gun told a room full of people that you ordered him to kill Stephan. Sorry, Lee. Another epic fail. I can’t believe you did this.

Cooked up some scheme to murder the man that I love, so that I would be available again. You know, you might as well confess you pathetic freak because you and your homicidal henchmen are going down. So it’s true. I heard that you hear under observation. I guess I had to see it for myself. So what happened?

Asked the morons who brought me in. No, I know. I’m asking you because the last time we saw each other, you told me that you were going after Megan. You were gonna take her out of commission. And I thought it went according to plan because then I get a text from you saying mission accomplished. And then the next thing I find out, Megan is hosting a party at the bistro.

And you crashed that party in a big wave and, and you didn’t grab Megan. You tried to kill Stephan Damira because Lee Hin told you to. I mean, the whole thing makes zero sense. Makes perfect sense to me. Okay. Will, if that’s true, you’re in absolutely the right place because you need your head examined by an expert.

Hold on just a minute. I’m coming. Hold on.

Elena, listen, you listen to me. I assume you’re here to see Rachel. Well, she left for camp a week ago. And you never even said goodbye. I know, I know. I, I, I was held captive by my deranged sister, Megan. Yes. Isn’t she in the hospital? Kristen, I told you to wait until I popped. Everything she’s saying is true.

I was held prisoner too. I see. And why would Megan do such a thing? That’s an excellent question, and we need your help to answer it.

Matt, what are doing here? I came to see you. If there was any word on your, please don’t let her become your mother-in-law. No. Demetri’s in with Megan now. She still hasn’t regained consciousness since her surgery, but thank you for making this crisis all about whether or not I’ve accepted his proposal.

Have you accepted his proposal? The subject hasn’t come up. God, would you look around please? Cuz we’re in a bloody hospital here. It’s been two days since Megan was shot. Dimitri doesn’t even know if she’s going to live or die, so just have some respect. The man’s completely falling apart and my heart is breaking for him.

Gny, that is so sad. Yes. Thank you. Finally. No honey, you are sad. I cannot believe you’re falling for this poor little rich boy act.

Oh, thank God you’re awake.

Where am I? You’re in the hospital. You had emergency surgery two days ago. What? Why? What happened? Mother, you were shot, Sharon. Yes. At the engagement party, you don’t remember, do you? Harris Michael showed up. He was armed. He said that Le, in order to kill Stephan, right before he pulled the trigger, Gabby rushed him.

There was a struggle for the gun and, and I got hit. Yeah. Oh, what is this? Why am I handcuffed? If I’m the victim here? Why am I handcuffed?

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

You are insane. If you think I’d hire someone to murder Stephan, right, because you haven’t tried to off him before. How do you know Harris Michaels? I don’t. Well, he said he was acting on your orders. That makes no sense. It makes perfect sense, especially if you brainwashed him the way you did me. And he’s on a cycle hold because the cops think that someone namely you messed with his head.

So you say you don’t know Michael’s, but you do know Dr. Rolf very well. Oh, and messing with people’s heads is his specialty. So you could have gotten that nutcase to help you for the last time. I’m innocent if that’s true. Give us one good reason why Harris Michaels were barged into our party point a gun at Stephan and say that you get the order to kill him.

I don’t know why this is so hard for you to understand. I take my orders from Lee Shin, not you. He wanted Stephan Demara out of the way so he could have a clear path to Gabby Hernandez. Okay? Look, two days ago we had a conversation at the pub, right? You told me you had put a tracking device on Megan’s car, then you got an alert and you went off after her.

Right. But now, now you’re asking me to believe that Lee Shin crossed your path and, and redirected you to another target, because I, I’m not believing that. If it makes you feel any better, Megan Hathaway got hers anyway. Oh God. Okay. God, I know, I know. She took a stray bullet at the bistro, but the point is you still haven’t answered my case.

Yeah, I’m done. I’m done talking. So either you can get lost or go get somebody to cut me loose so I can finish my real mission.

Why am I shackled to the bed? Is this some kind of a sick joke? No. I hate to one tell you this. You’ve been arrested. Arrested. What for

you really? Dunno. Well, if I did, I wouldn’t be asking you. Dimitri, would you please tell me? Tell me what I have been accused of, of kidnapping After you were shot on, Kristen and Uncle EJ told the cops that you were holding them hostage in the basement of the mansion. Well, you must really be joking now. I wish I were.

That is not true, Dimitri.

That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard in my whole life. I’m unclear why you think I would help you with anything. We know that you would be reluctant, not just because of Kristen, but obviously I’m not your favorite person, but I’d need to, but, but we have. We have come to you with all due respect and humility because you are the only person who can provide the kind of help that we need.

Oh, what does that mean? Megan was arrested for kidnapping, Kristen and me. And unless we can tell the police exactly what happened and why they’re gonna let her go, well then why don’t you go to the police and tell them because we don’t remember. Mm. If you are trying to rope me into some demure family hygiene, no, no, no, no, no, no.

We’re not, we’re not. Megan injected us with a drug to raise our memories, and that’s where your expertise comes in. We need you to bring them back and, and frankly, after everything she’s done to you, I, I think you’d leave at the chance to put her away. Even if that means helping me,

what’s this? You are working for Father Christmas. Now. Why do you have a pillow case? It’s a change of clothes, which obviously you don’t need since you’ve already changed. Thank you. That was very thoughtful here in case you need to change again. I mean, you do seem to be living here now, Marty. I am not living here.

I am going to go home and I’m going to sleep. And so even though that was very thoughtful of you, I’m not gonna be needing a change of clothes. Not now. Fine. I’ll take it back.

Could you stop looking at me? So Disapprovingly, I am merely supporting Dimitri whose, whose mother, as I’m sure you know, may not pull through. He’s having a very rough time, obviously. Well, it’s not him. I feel sorry for right now. What’s that supposed to mean? It means to hell with his rough time. I’m worried about you, Gwenie.

Oh my God. Here we go again. Yes. Here we go again. And it will be again and again and again until you see the light. Oh, mm yes. Well, according to you, the light actually is very much the opposite, meaning very cynical and mistrusting. So therefore seeing the dark side of the moon, because in this case there is a dark side to the damn moon.

And my bff, former fellow cynic, pessimist, and misanthrope has suddenly gone all Pollyanna and Schal tearing over a dangerous predator. I can’t listen to this anymore. Corny. Corny. I’m only saying this because I love you. You know I do. And the count of Monty Lango does not. You need to wake up. You have fallen victim to a man who’s upsettingly handsome face and impossibly toned physique has caused you to throw logic out the window so he can suck you in.

Now, normally I am all for sucking, but not in this case, not under these circumstances, not when that conman is trying to lure you further into his web with his crocodile tears of his bullet ridden Mummy, you know what? You couldn’t be more wrong about Dimitri, that man. Is in so much pain. Oh, he hasn’t eaten.

Oh, he hasn’t slept. His pain is very real. Oh really? And that means his feelings for you are real. I know. They are. And whether you like it or not, that man is absolutely beside himself with worry over Megan. Of course he is. He needs that crazy bitch to survive so she can help him with whatever he has planned for you.

So you’re saying that there is absolutely nothing to Aunt Kristen and uncle e J’s claims. Of course not. Whatever they told the police, it’s a complete fabrication. Is it? Because the two of them disappeared rather suddenly. A few weeks ago, they didn’t disappear. Kristen went to New York to find a custody lawyer and Egypt probably just wanted to escape that insufferable girlfriend of his.

And yet they’re claiming that you had them tied up in the wine cellar. Now why, why would they lie about that mother? Because that’s what they do. Why? Who they you mean? Because, because they’re des, because they’re not true Des, like you and I, they’re pnu interlopers and they will do anything, say anything that they can to blacken my name, to drag me down.

What are you thinking? Say it, their story. It just, it makes me think of a couple of things. What things? Well, for one, the night of the party, I saw you heading into the tunnels to get a bottle of champagne, as I recall. Surely that’s not a crime now. No. No, of course not. But then there’s the other time that I came in and found you standing in front of the secret panel and you were holding a tray and it looked to have enough food to feed two people.

And yet there you were all by yourself. Dimitri, do you have any idea how much this hurts me that my own son. Can think that I would do anything so malevolent that I would be so cruel to my own siblings. To what? End

again? Silence. That’s just it. I don’t know. To what end? Oh, I have no theory as to why you would do this.

Because there is none. It defies all logic. So what do EJ and Kristen say that my motives were for kidnapping them and tying them up? They don’t know. Or rather they don’t know anymore because they’re claiming that you injected them with something to make them forget. Demetri, I’m getting the distinct impression that you believe them.

Look at me.

If you turn against me, Demetri, it will break my heart. Is that what you want to do? Of course not. And you.

Where your loyalties lie.

Say it right now. Tell me that you believe me. That you trust me. Tell me. That you will never betray me.

So Megan wiped out your memories for the most part. We do know that she had us locked up in the tunnels and that she drugged us. She may be our sister, but I can say without hesitation that she needs to be behind bars. Remember how badly John suffered when he thought that you had died? Well, Megan can inflict that pain all over again on your friends, on your family, on everyone in Salem, for all we know.

But the problem is we don’t know. We don’t remember. We have no idea what Megan’s plans are or more important who is in a crosshairs. And for the question, Lee, Why would Harris say you ordered him to kill Stephan? If that’s not true,

I just wanna make certain none of this will be traced back to us. Stop worried. Lee, commander Michaels is firmly back on my team, so he’ll take Stephan out at the party tonight and then you’ll be free to move on with Gabby and we’ll both get what we want. You two are so quick to blame me. You’re completely overlooking the person who’s actually guilty.

And who was that? Megan Hathaway. Oh, come on it. It couldn’t be more obvious. She used Ralph to brainwash Michael’s once, and now she’s done it again.

Megan, Megan would make sense if she somehow, somehow flipped the tables on you. I mean, I don’t know why she would wanna kill her brother. I don’t have any idea about that. But somehow I think she is up to her eyeballs on all of this. You’re wrong. Just go away.

No, I’m gonna do better than that. I’m gonna help you. Okay? I, I know you want my help. And, um, I’m gonna help you get back to your right mind. There’s nothing wrong with my mind, and yet here you are shackled to this bed after attempting an assassination. Paris. Okay? This isn’t you. This isn’t, you says stop.

Okay. No, listen to me. I know. I know. That the last time you were de programmed, it wasn’t a pleasant thing. Okay, so we don’t have to call in isa. Marlena can do this. She can do it here. She helps. No. Oh, I Let me call. No, look, you came to Salem to stop Megan Hathaway from ever hurting anyone ever again. But what she’s done is hurt you.

She has stripped you of your humanity so that she could use you to do her dirty work. You can’t let her do that. You can’t let her do that Again, you have to, you have to find. Your real self, your true self. Harris is your good man. Your decent man.

You are a hero. You saved my life. Okay? I wanna help you. I wanna help you, but I can only help you. If you give me your consent, will you do that?

Why would I consent to letting a shrink mess with my head? I answered, Alicia, I don’t need to be programmed to do what he wants. Of course you do. Anyone who can suddenly be okay with committing murder, that means that you were turned by someone who only thinks of you as a tool. And to me, that screams Megan Hathaway.

Are you finished?

You can’t let her do this to you again. I know that you want my help. I just really hope to God that you accept it because if you don’t, you will forever be a pawn for making sick.

Why would Megan want stuff? And Dad, he’s her brother. He’s also co c e o of Demara. So what, so you have what she wants, what All demaris want more power, money control. A bigger piece of the proverbial pie. And if Stephan were to meet his untimely demise, no, no, no, no. She may want the company, but she’s not gonna take out a family member to get it.

But you, Lee would absolutely take me out for another chance with Gabby. Hmm. So that’s it. There’s only one possible explanation that I did this because I can’t let go of my ex even after I didn’t fight you on the divorce. And I’ve told you repeatedly, I just want you to be happy. I decided to do a total 180 and risk my freedom, my future, everything to murder.

Stephan, a man you never stopped loving even after he was dead. So that way I could be with you again, knowing full well your heart would always belong to him. Yep, you got me. That’s it. That’s how I wanna spend the rest of my life. Good luck, man. I really hope there’s room in that bed of yours for the three of you, you, Gabby, and her ego.

Of course, I’m on your side. I would, I would never betray you. I’d never turn my back on you. I’m so sorry that I ever made you feel otherwise.

You are the most important person in my life to be true. You are my life.

And that’s why I know I can be a forbearing at times.

Okay. I suppose I can be downright track.

I’m with you, Dimitri. It’s only because I want you to have a very full, happy life. I want that so much for you,

and to that end, I have done everything I can to protect you from those who would sabotage you. Undermine you the way they tried to do me, you mean, uh, the other Damaris? The Yes. Yes. That’s what I mean.

But give me some good news. Tell me about Gwen and how that’s going. Well, I proposed and I offered her a diamond ring. Yes, I know. And has she accepted?

No, not yet. But you should know that all this time that I’ve been by your side, she’s been right here by mine. And from the moment that they rushed you into surgery, she has been here. And I don’t think that she’s left. Now I think she’s still here. She hasn’t left once. Oh, that’s wonderful. Dimitri. Bless her heart.

You know, I know that I was be cavalier and somewhat callous at the beginning of all of this, wanting you to get married. Just because the inheritance was contingent upon it, but

there is nothing that would lift my spirits more than knowing that when you do Mary Ms. R Jack, That you will not only have secured the Von of Fortune, but you would’ve found someone to truly love someone worthy of you.

Oh, so now it’s not just Dimitri plotting against me, it’s his mother too. You said he hasn’t left her side since she got here. Clearly, they’re thickest thieves. Oh, yes. He’s a very devoted son, so clearly they’re conspiring against me. You are really reaching Matty. Mm, I don’t think so. Love bug. When I said Kristen and EJ free, they told me they think Megan and her Spawn are just using you.

But what purpose? Well, they, they couldn’t remember, but they are sure those two are plotting something.

Will you help us figure out what Megan was plotting? Look, I will beg you if I have to.

Why don’t we try Come Scott. No, wait, wait. Come in.

I just wanna make sure that we’re not interrupted. Okay. Who wants to go first?

You know, at first I thought that Lee was trying to throw suspicion off of himself and onto Megan. Yeah. But what he said about her does seem at least possible. And he’s right. I mean, Megan has brainwashed Michaels before. God. I just, I keep going back to that moment where God, he was trying to shoot you.

He’s a Navy seal. If he would’ve pulled the trigger, he wouldn’t have missed. Yeah. So you bum rushed him to get his gun, Gabby. I can’t believe what you did to save me. I had to. You kidding me? I wasn’t gonna let that happen again. N not again. Not like that. Stephen, I love you so much. I love you. That monster that did this is gonna have to pay.

You think it was Megan, you were wondering why she was so insistent on throwing us that party. And that party is exactly where all this went down. Yeah. And EJ and Chris said that they were being held captive by her for weeks. They still don’t know why. Well, maybe this is why. Maybe they were onto her and she needed them out of the way.

Oh, and then maybe that witch injected them with something to make them forget. I will kill her. I will, I will literally go to the hospital right now and, and just smother her with a pillow. Take it easy, easy. Take it easy. Her sister tried to whack you. It’s ruthless. It’s, it’s totally her mo. We’re still not sure.

All right. And it’s too dangerous for you to confront her by yourself, so we need the authorities to handle this. I’ll talk to Trask and I’ll meet you at home. Or the two of us could go smother Megan together. Okay, fine. We’ll do it your way.

See how I just, I just want this to be overs. I just want you to be safe.

It is exhausting trying to convince you that all I want is for you to be safe. How about happy? Do you want that for me? Because Demetri makes me feel that way. Orgasms don’t count. You bloody stop it with the crude jokes and a loud, bloody name calling, there’s absolutely no proof that Demetri is up to no good.

You want proof? I’ll get you proof. I will go back to that house of horrors and dig something up. Yeah, that’s what you said the night of the party. Well, it is not my fault. I got sidetracked by two memory impaired de mirrors. And by the way, just because I didn’t find anything the first time doesn’t mean there’s nothing to be found.

No fine, then go at it. You’re just gonna be wasting your time. Just promise me you will not give D V L or his magic penis an answer about the proposal until I report back.

You’re really asking a lot. I mean, it’s been days. Since he proposed to me, what if he, what if he gets tired of waiting? What if he takes it back? Well then you, my little potato pancake can consider yourself lucky.

Ah, so. Here I am recovering from my brush with death, which given that I actually did lose my life some time ago, doesn’t seem that momentous does it. I mean, if I can come back stronger than ever, from the great beyond, you’ll be back to your old self again, stronger than ever. Once more. And looking at the bright side, my being out of commission for a little while.

Provided an opportunity for you and Gwen to spend some very valuable time together and for you to learn that she is both loyal and Carrie.

Megan, you’re awake. I am indeed. I’m very happy to see you. Are you. I, I wouldn’t be anywhere else. Your son here has been praying for your recovery, as have I. I’m very grateful to both of you.

You both did very well. Is everything clear to you now? Oh, that’s psycho. Megan was planning to kill Stephan. She brainwashed Harris and obviously set up Le Shin to take the fall. Thank God it all came back to us. Oh my God. But it’s still her word against ours. But we have the advantage now. We have the truth.

Marina, I know this was asking a lot and we are so very grateful, but because of you, we can stop Megan from doing any further damage. No, thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Marlena. I, I don’t know how, what to say. Just. Make sure she pays. Okay. What is our next move? We should split up. You go to the station and alert the police.

All right. And what are you gonna do? My dear sister is languishing in hospital. I think it’s time we pay her a visit.

Honestly, this is so wonderful. It’s just such an absolute relief to me too, obviously, especially knowing that you’ve been here by my son’s side, the entire ordeal.

Yes. Well, I’ve, I’ve seen how devoted your son is to you. He was sick with worry. Well, no more worry now. Just a great deal of gratitude that we still have so many happy days ahead of us here, here, and you know, this entire experience has made me realize how much I’ve taken for granted going along as if I have infinite tomorrows.

But this has reminded me that there is nothing in life. That’s a guarantee. It could all end tomorrow in an instant. So I say looking at the two of you, beautiful people starting a new life together.

At least I fer hope you are.

By Darlene’s son and you Gwen, who have supported him through this difficult time, allow me to impart a bit of wisdom.

Don’t postpone your happiness. If an opportunity presents itself, seize it with courage and conviction, and without delay, don’t let it pass you by.

I think I need to rest Yes. Of, of course. I hope that we haven’t text you too much. Not at all. You’ve warmed my heart. Inspired me to heal quickly. But you could go home now. Get out of this jury hospital. You sure? You’ll be all right? Absolutely. Just seeing the two of you growing closer together, making each other happy, it reminds me of the richness in life of the wealth that’s available to us if we simply commit and receive it.

Right. Well, I’m, I’m gonna let you rest, right?

I’m.

Bravo. That was most eloquent out there. Do you think I got my point across? Oh yes. Very effectively. And now, uh, it is time for you to take the reins. Dimitri. It is time for you to make this happen. Make that woman your wife. I will do my damnedest and one.

Don’t trust the others, the, and never forget that you and I we’re a team. We must stick together a united front. Yes, yes, yes. Mother United front. Always,

I love you.

Tell Ms. Trask it’s urgent. Stephan Demara. No, she has my number step. What are you doing here, Gabby? And I just grubbly shin. Now I need to find the da. Yes. Same here. Need to talk. I need to start from Megan. What? What?

What’s wrong? I don’t have time to explain. I’m looking for my sister’s room. Megan, why? So I can tell that maniacal snake that the jig is up. So Marlena agreed to hypnotize you and ej. Mm-hmm. I mean, she wasn’t happy about it, but she did know it was the only way. Did it work? Yeah, sure did. And now we know the truth about what our sister did to us and what she tried to do to you.

So Megan is actually the one who wanted step in death? That’s right. Well, Harris is convinced that the order came from Shin. Yeah. Lee insists he didn’t give Michaels a command to kill me, Gabby, and I don’t know whether to believe him. Well, you can believe him. All right. The commander did not get his commands from Shin.

Forget Shin. Megan’s behind this. It’s all about getting control of the company. Are you sure? Thanks to Marlena. Yes. I frigging knew it

well. Megan gambled that EJ and I wouldn’t remember, and she gambled and lost. It’s the perfect setup. She programs Michaels to think he got his orders from Lee. Her hands stay clean. Mm-hmm. But not anymore. You see, everyone’s gonna know the truth about Megan starting with the da. I left her a message to call me as soon as she’s out of her meeting.

No need for you to hang around as Megan’s intended victim. I would like to be the one to give Trask everything she needs to nail our sister to the wall. Mm. All right, then I will see you back at the house.

It’s time to let my sister know that she’s not fooling anyone anymore. Has she even woken up yet? Well, if she hasn’t, I’ll shake her back to consciousness. Oh, I would love to see the look on her face when she finds out she’s gonna be spending the rest of her miserable life in a cage. And by all means, join me.

I got a message through the police that you wanted to see me. Dr. Evans, thank you for, for coming. What’s going on?

Um,

I realize that I, I need your help.

Coast is clear. Let’s give this another go.

What are you hiding here? Dimwit.

Who the hell do you think you

probably feels like forever since you’ve been back here? I haven’t really missed it, truth be told. That’s because wherever you are is where I now want to be.

I can’t tell you how much it meant to me to have you by my side. I would never have left him alone. Never.

What is it?

Nothing. Okay, I should go. You get some rest. I’ll call you later. Dimitri. Wait.

Look, I know that there’s a lot going on right now.

But I haven’t forgotten that you are waiting my response to your proposal. Oh, Gwen, don’t worry about that. I can wait. No, I can’t wait. And I have an answer for you now.

My answer is yes.

So do you believe me? Now let me be very clear, Lee. I would never take your word on anything, but Kristen was just here and she remembers what happened now. She confirmed what you said. Megan programmed Harris to kill me. Finally, so go talk to the police and get me outta here. No, no, no. This may have been Megan’s plan, but you damn well could have been in on it.

So till I have confirmation, I. That you weren’t, you’re not going anywhere,

dear. I know the truth now.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

No, I can’t come to Rockville right now. Yes, I’m aware it is a holiday, but sweep it is reopening tomorrow and you were supposed to make that flower delivery yesterday. Yeah, well, you try running a business after your partner leaves town and your best employee tries to ruin your business.

Did you know my dad? Oh, you’re Theo. You’ve covered son, and you are.

So the eyewitness who saw my dad fall into the water is an actor. Jerry Prentice is his name.

He hasn’t been in much. Just local theater, a commercial. Oh no, look at this. A couple years ago he was on that soap, body and soul.

Oh, well that’s a little better. Do you wanted to see me, Ms. Delo, it’s about time you got here. I have a job for you. What kind of job? Well, I need someone who can pretend to me the true and rifle air to the DeLorean fortune and that.

What is my son doing in one of my life’s stories?

The hell’s going on here.

Nurse King. What are you doing here? I. I, I, I came to say I’m sorry,

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

Okay, look, I, I get it’s the 4th of July and you wanna spend it with your family, but my family just lost someone really, really dear to us. And, well, my bakery is reopening tomorrow and I, I just really need something good to happen. Okay? So if you can’t help me, I 8:00 PM I will be in the store. Thank you.

Oh, uh, they were supposed to make a delivery yesterday. Flo, they’re coming tonight. As you probably gather, you’re reopening tomorrow. Yeah, that’s the plan. Assuming nothing else goes wrong, what is all this? Uh, just doing my community service. Keeping Salem clean. Yeah, I heard the DA gave you a deal. Lucky break.

Yeah, well, turns out that she had a personal experience with an abusive relationship, so she showed me some mercy. Well, good for you. Uh, I should go, uh, Chanel, uh, hang on, please. What is it?

I just really wanna say how sorry I am.

You’re sorry for what? Well, for your loss. I heard about your husband’s death and I wanted to share my deep condolences. Thank you. That’s very kind. I didn’t know Mayor Carver very well, but he seemed like a decent and caring man. Yes. He was, and you may have been the last person to see him alive.

I thought so. Uh, but it sounds like that guy at the docks was the last one to see him before he met his tragic fate,

body and soul. Never heard of it. Nice try. I know you used to watch it during the day whenever you worked night shifts. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Oh, really? So it was just a coincidence that the TV would be on that channel when I came home. I mean, if you’re watching it, it’s just, just I have to it.

Fine. All right. I, I, I watched it here and there. Mm-hmm. But only cuz I had a crush on that actress, or was her name Sal or something like that. Oh, so you like her, huh? Just cuz she reminded me of you. But baby you are way, way better looking nice, safe. No, but I don’t recall seeing this guy on the show though.

It looks like he was just in a couple episodes. Yes, he gave up his Hollywood dreams and moved back to good old Salem. I gotta be honest. I was kind of hoping for a mugshot and not a headshot. Yeah. He ran him through the system, but came back clean. Looks like he was just an innocent bystander on the docks.

I mean, why would this guy have any reason to lie about seeing my dad fall into the water?

Jerry? Jerry, you’re the witness. You’re the one who saw my dad fall into the river. Yeah, that’s me. But, but what are you doing here now? Uh, I guess I was drawn to come back because I felt guilty. Guilty about what

is an actor?

Doesn’t make sense. I want you to pretend to be Lord Kyle Vaughn Furstenberg bastard, son of lady Charmaine de Laqua, heir to the de fortune. Do you really think that’s going to work? Why not? Well, in case you haven’t noticed, I don’t exactly bear resemblance to the Delacroix land. Oh, what difference does that make?

DNA never lies until it does. So Kyle, Brandy, Kyle. Oh, rights. Kyle, you do exactly what I say. And no one will ever be the wiser.

I sure as hell will be.

Look, I felt terrible when I heard the news. I was really praying that Mary Carver would be found safe. We all were the not knowing was awful, especially for my mom and well now we have closure, but Babe is gone.

Look, I’ll never be able to forgive myself with the role that I played in all of this. And I know that Colin had nothing to do with Abe’s disappearance, but I mean, if he would’ve never assaulted him, and if I would’ve never helped him in that stupid revenge block, what ifs are pointless now? Okay. I look, believe me, I, I did my fair share of those when Colin and Sloan’s mother died, and it didn’t change a damn thing.

So now I know all we can do is just keep moving forward.

You know, you were right. You know, but while I was putting up those fires, I guess I was just trying to asage my guilty conscience. Did it work? No, it, it didn’t, and I know that there’s nothing I can do to make up for how I hurt you and your feeling.

I, I feel guilty because I saw your dad fall and I almost got to him, but it was too late and I wanted to jump in and save him, but I. You can’t swim. I, I understand. I know that the last thing my dad would’ve wanted was for you to lose your life while trying to save his. You did what you could, right? You called 9 1 1.

Yeah.

At least you know what happened to her. I’m actually glad that I ran into you so that. I can say thank you for that.

That’s very kind of, you very kind pay me a condolence call. You obviously care very deeply for your patience. Oh, mayor Carver was, wasn’t just a patient. I voted for him in every election. I then volunteered for him on his campaign. Before I ever met him, I felt as if I, I knew him personally. Hmm. Abe had an amazing talent for connecting with people.

Oh, he did. You’re very lucky to have had him for as long as you did. I keep telling myself that doesn’t make the loss any easier. We were supposed to be celebrating our first wedding anniversary. I was there. You know what? I was in the park the day that you got married. You were? Yes. I attended a, a Juneteenth barbecue and I just stumbled upon it to watch you exchanged your vows and then jump the broom.

Oh. It made me so, so happy to be a small part of that day o of your lives. I will never forget Abe Carver and I, I feel blessed to have known him.

What are you reading the statement from Nurse Whitley King? It seems like she was the last person to have seen my dad before he left the hospital. But if her timetable is right, there’s still all that time missing before he showed up at the docks. I mean, Eli, where could he have gone? We checked every security camera in Salem.

Nothing. There’s Ray. I’m not supposed to be looking at this house. Okay, that’s fine. No, I don’t wanna get you in trouble, babe. I’m not worried about that.

Bonnie. Oh, Bonnie, it’s so good to see you. You too, boss. Yeah. Wish you were under any other circumstances. Same. Hi. Oh, you too. Haven’t met. Sorry. This is Detective Jada. Hunter. Lonnie. Detective, please call me Jada. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Abe was a wonderful man. Thank you. And. I really appreciate you working so hard on this case.

Okay. Listen, I’m sure that you didn’t, uh, just come all the way down here to Salem PD to say hello. Well, I was part of it. Right. So, uh, let’s just say hypothetically, if you wanted to take a look at the evidence and I wasn’t there, then, uh, hypothetically that would be okay. No harm, no foul. Thank you for understanding.

I’m sorry. That’s my boss from DC second. Okay.

Oh, I’m sorry. Yeah, I’m really sorry. We. I just wish we had better information on your father, Ray. I know that you’ve gone over this case a hundred different ways. I guess I thought if I just, if I saw the evidence for myself that it would help me to accept what happened. Yeah, but I don’t know. Truth is if even if we did figure it out, nothing’s gonna bring my dad back.

Let’s just get to the credits. So I’m hosting the Party of the Decade at Patterns. You plead it, right? And I expect by the ends of the evening you’ll be welcomed into the family’s exclusive. Oh, what do you get out of this? That’s for me to know, for you to find out.

All right here.

Jerry Prentice. What the hell?

That’s not my son’s name.

That means Pauline’s been lying to me. What else is she lying about?

I gotta get outta here. I gotta get outta here.

Are you still seeing Dr. Evans? Yeah. Therapy is a condition of my probation, but I mean, I would’ve gone even if I didn’t have to. So if she’s helping you, yeah, more than I could have hoped. I’m glad to hear that.

Yeah, and I’m glad to see you moving forward too. Look, Chanel Sweet Bits is a great place and I know that you’re gonna make it a success again. Yeah, I’m gonna try. I hope you found someone’s salad to replace me. I did. She’s conscientious, punctual. Trustworthy.

Sounds perfect.

I mean, her oatmeal, scot cheese, taste like hockey pucks, but we’re working on it. Well, what happened there? A friendly fire. Oh, uh, something like that. I’m actually headed home so that I can shower and change and make it back for the flower delivery tonight. Well, um, go look with everything tomorrow and please tell your mom how sorry I am.

I will. Thanks.

Well, I should be going, uh, nurse King. Before you do, could I ask you a favor? Uh, sure. Now, um, as you said, you may be the last person to talk to Abraham. Um, could you tell me his last words to you? Last words, my daughter Chanel. Told me he was confused. He didn’t even remember who I was. I, I was just wondering if you had the same experience.

Did you, you awake? How are you feeling?

Paulina? Excuse me. I know. I know who you are. You’re my wife.

He said. Your name. He did see, yeah. Y’all on some level, he, he must have remembered you.

Oh, thank you. Thank you. Your an angel. You have no idea what it means to me to hear that. Yes. Yes, of course. I, I, I better be going now off, off to work. Of course, of course, of course. And thank you. Thank you again for, for stopping by. Yes. Of

I hope your husband’s taking you somewhere special for your anniversary. Oh, it’s today. It is. Yeah. Happy anniversary. Thank you. But we agreed not to celebrate it until I am actually free. Oh,

what? What’s wrong? My boss just assigned me to a new case in Arizona. What she Explain your situation to him. I tried, but it turns out this case is tied to some other investigation that I’ve been working on for months. Oh, I can’t believe this. Baby, I’m sorry. I, hopefully it’s just for a day. I, I’m gonna do everything that I can to make sure that I’m back in time for his funeral.

But you, you know, I, I, I know you can’t make any promises, honey. No, I, I understand baby. You, you have a job to do, but I’m a supervised release. You agreed to look after me. Does this mean that I have to, I’ll take responsibility for you. Really? Yeah, of course. I’ll get on with corrections right away. Thank you Ray.

That’s the least I can do. When do you leave? They said that they’ll book me out on the latest possible flight, so at least we have some time to spend together tonight. Okay. Then we just have to make the most of the time that we have. Do you mind if we stop by Doug and Julie so I can say bye? Of course not.

Um, as long as we can make one other stop on the way.

Can I ask you something? Of course. I’m just wondering, since you were the last person to see my dad alive, how did he seem? What do you mean? Like did it seem like he was confused, upset? I’m not sure. Uh, I was pretty far away.

Well, did it look like he just tripped? Pretty much it, it, it all happened so fast. I, I don’t think he was in any pain. That’s what you were wondering. Yeah. You have that up. That’s good to know. Thanks. I wish I could tell you more. I, I wish I could have done more, but you, your dad seemed like a, a pretty special guy.

He was,

and I’m gonna miss him forever. Um, Theo, there’s something I need to tell you. We gotta get outta here. See what’s going on.

Abe, what are you doing? I’m leaving.

No, you’re not.

Oh, great. More cases. I’m sorry. I know, I know. You’re already swamped. Maybe if we had Eli and Lonnie back on the force, I’d be able to get through this stack. Not that I’m complaining. No, no, no, no. Complain away. I’m just saying. I mean, well, we have leash and in custody. Harris Michaels is under observation at the hospital, and then there’s Kristen and EJ Demere’s kidnapping situation, which is fishy to say the least.

Oh man. I just remember, oh no, you got one more assignment. Yeah. What now? Go home, watch some fireworks. Well, come on. No, that’s in order now. I am not saying you have to watch fireworks with me, but if you do happen to, wanna spend your well-deserved time off with yours, truly, you may, um, street location then.

Well, I do enjoy being. Discreet with you, Ms. Hernandez, you’re on.

Jerry, what is it, Theo? You’ve suffered such a terrible loss. And Theo, buddy Eli. Hi. Hi.

It’s a trying your dad, what are you guys doing here? I asked Eli to bring me here so I could see where the accident happened. I, I just, I didn’t know this would be here. So many people loved that.

Dear Jerry Apprentice. Yes. Jerry came because he felt bad about not being able to help dad when he fell into the river. But I, I told him that it’s not his fault that we don’t blame him. Thank you for saying that. Hey, why did you tell my husband you’re on that soap? Body and soul? Oh, it was a long time ago.

Mm-hmm. Well, if he’d known, he probably would’ve asked you for your autograph cuz he is secretly a fan of yours. Lonnie? No. Uh, well this is clearly a, uh, family moment, so I should just go, Jeremy, wait. Before Elia and Eli showed up, you said that you had something to tell me. What is it? Oh, I just wanted to say again how terrible I feel about your dad, and I want you to know how deeply saw her half.

Hey baby. Oh Mama. So how’s the reopening of Sweet Bits coming along? Who is coming? What are you doing on? Figured you’d be there all night getting ready? Yeah, I just came back to shower and change really quick and I’m gonna head back and, um, but. I just, I, I really hate leaving you alone again. I haven’t been alone.

Not for the whole time anyway. Oh, who came over? Oh, Whitley uh, um, nurse King came by to pay her respects really Abe’s nurse. Mm-hmm. She had so many wonderful things to say about him that was nice of her. Mm-hmm. He wasn’t her patient for long, but he really seemed to touch her life. You’ve been lying to me.

Oh, Abe, what are you talking about? Sat theo on Body and Soul, and he was playing Lorna DeLorean’s Bodyguard. And I watched the credits and they didn’t say Theo Carver, it was Jerry Prentice. You see?

Jerry Preis is his stage name, stage name. Apparently there was another actor named Theo Carver. He didn’t wanna be confused with him. Anyway, body, his soul was pretty much his last role, and he moved to South Africa and open up his own business.

I don’t believe you. I don’t believe any of it.

You’re leaving tonight, believe me. I wish I didn’t have to this anniversary. That sucks. I told you, Theo, we’re not celebrating our anniversary. Not until I’m free. Dad wouldn’t want you to wait. You’re playing the dad card. Really, Theo? He’s kind of right. Lonny. What are you saying, babe? I have hours before I need to be at the airport.

Plus we haven’t had a night together, and I don’t know how long. Well, we don’t have to make it about our anniversary. I, I just want to enjoy every moment that I have with you. He’s right. You should listen to him. I’m gonna head over to Pauls Chanel’s reopening her bakery tomorrow, and I’m sure that your mom could use the comfort.

Thank you. There may or may not be lasagna left in the fridge, so it’s not entirely altruistic. Yes. Soon. Easy.

What’s that?

This is my old pile. Bruno dad got him from me at a carnival when I was six. I used to not be able to sleep unless I was holding this thing. I squeeze. I’m sorry, this little, no, I was ripped off. You lived. Lived a tough life.

I think Dad probably thought I was gonna carry all my stuffed animals with me to high school. You’d be very proud if I was gonna leave this here, then

you. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I will be. I love you so much. I love you.

I knew I was gone, but

I don’t think I felt it until right now. I’m sorry, Lonnie. I’m so sorry.

Uh, so it sounds like you and Theo have big plans tonight. Where? Dinner, fireworks on tv. Maybe a game of Canasta. You can’t play Canasta with Theo. Why not? So guys a shark. He’ll take you for everything you’re worth. Okay, we’ll skip the canesta now. Tell me, uh, how’s the new employee at Sweet Bits working out?

She’s okay. Just okay. Well, she’s fine. She’s just not Talia. I, I ran into TA at the square and um, she wanted me to tell you how sorry she feels about Abe and she still feels so guilty. I’m deeply ashamed for her part in all of it. Well enough of that. What do you mean? I mean, Talia is a young woman who was under the spell of a, a very bad man.

So for obvious reasons, my heart goes out to her and I think she should let go of the guilt and the shame and. To focus on being stronger and wiser from now on, making a good life for herself. Oh, that’s, That’s very, uh, kind of you, I, I’ll tell her that if I ever see her again.

Hey, hey. What’s going on? Uh, I’ve been just here to give my parole officer my signed forms. You know, to show I’m doing my community service and my therapy, but I can’t seem to find her anywhere. I’ll take care of it for you. Oh, thanks. So how’s therapy going? Really well, Dr. Evans is the best. Well, I’m glad it’s working.

Yep. She even offered to help me find a job at the hospital when my probation ends. That’s amazing. Now you’ll finally get back to doing what you were trained to do. Yeah. What’s wrong?

And it’s just, I saw Chanel before and she told me she hired this new woman. Are you jealous? Jealous. No. For what? You miss working at the bakery? Yeah, actually I do a lot. I know Chanel never forgive me for what I did, and she shouldn’t, but I mean, GIA, I have to admit. What?

Every time I see her, I miss her too.

Oh, Abe, everything I’ve told you is the truth. No, no, it’s not. Something has felt wrong from the beginning. You know what? Maybe you should lay down, darling. I don’t want, I don’t want to lay down. I want you to tell me the truth right now. Or I’m gonna call the police.

Oh, there you go. Here you go. What did, what did Jesus do to me? Oh, it was just a mild sedative, darling, you drug me. Oh, you were, you were confused and upset. Oh, I can’t let you leave, darling. Not now. Not ever. You.

Toya. Hey, uh, sorry. I realized I never returned this. Oh, thanks. Yeah, I figured you need it. You know, from a replacement.

I am really grateful. To be here with you in this moment, but I miss my dad. I miss our beautiful babies. That reminds me Carver and Jules, they made this for you. I think we have a couple of artistic geniuses on our hands, um, for mommy. Ugh.

Carter did that. Yeah, I love it. Um, but I, I don’t have anything for you babe. You don’t need to get me anything for our anniversary. Just having you here with me. It’s the best gift I could ever receive. Just sucks that we don’t have more time together. I know, but we’ll be together soon enough. You’ll be free.

You’ll be a family again. Yeah, and I’ll never take that for granted again. My freedom, my beautiful family. Just having you guys close to me and not just in my heart. I love you. I love you too.

Thank you.

I was hoping you wouldn’t notice. What are you thinking about?

Last 4th of July, your father was sitting right there where you are now. We were watching. Tv. He was trying so hard to be so strong after Lani had just been sent to prison and you going back to South Africa.

We were watching the fireworks and I looked over

and there was this tear holding down his face.

See, isn’t this nice a perfect night, just the two of us.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Mama, look how beautiful mama.

Oh, just, just put, put a bit all the, okay.

All right. And here is the note.

You can read it.

Okay. Dear Paulina and Chanel, we are very sorry for your unimaginable loss. You are in our thoughts and we are here for you. Whatever you need, always love John and Marlin.

Such good friends. I’ve loved Abe so much. I’m sure they must be grieving too. Um, I should send them something.

No, mama. Right now you just need to take care of yourself. Okay.

Come on buddy. You gotta be out here somewhere.

Is that you buddy?

Hello, John.

I knew that I’d find you. Oh, I gotta tell Paulina. I’m sorry, John. I can’t stay. What do you mean you can’t stay? Goodbye old friend.

No, no, no. Don’t believe. Don’t go Abraham. Abraham. Don’t go.

What are you doing with that paper?

Did you, did you see the paper? They’re saying that my dad is dead. The, they’re saying that Commissioner Hernandez thinks so too. All the people that I need and love, I I just keep losing them. You haven’t lost me, Theo. I’m right here. Hi.

Like Sam through the hour class. So are the of

So does this mean No, I, I haven’t been released from prison, but Eli convinced the warden to grant me a furlough for dad’s funeral. I just have to wear this, honey. Thank God you’re here. I love you. I’m so grateful I could be here. I’m just, I’m so sorry, Theo. I wasn’t here when dad first went missing, and I wish we could have waited together or maybe I could have helped find him.

No, babe, we went over this. There’s nothing that you could have done that Steve, John, or Raf didn’t try. Helis, right? Everybody was looking for him, and even though he’s the most well-known man in Salem, nobody saw him on a single soul. I just, I don’t get it money. I don’t get it either. Hey, but we have to be strong for each other.

Okay. And we have to take care of each other. Okay. Because that is what dad would’ve wanted. Okay. I love you.

You didn’t even come to bed last night. Well, I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep,

just be going over this stuff again. I still can’t believe Abe just walked off the docks, fell in the water, and drowned even though all the evidence points to that evidence can be fabricated. Is that what you think happened? It’s just too easy. Sweetness. It’s too pat.

Oh, thank you. You woke up drenched in sweat, calling out Abe’s name. Yeah. They’re one of those damn nightmares.

Do you wanna talk about it?

Yeah.

I was down at the docks and I found. And we, we were, we were face to face. I was talking to him and before I could call Paulina to tell him that he was okay, he was gone. And I, I couldn’t stop cock. I tried it. I, uh, I couldn’t stop on my eye.

No wonder the dream was so upsetting for you. Paulina trusted that Steve and I were gonna find him, and I let her down.

Let him down.

So, did you hear me? What are you doing with that paper? I was, I was getting rid of it before you woke up. Why? Because I didn’t want you to get upset. Why am upset now? I don’t like being handled. Okay. I’ll tell you something terrible happened down at the docks. A local man who had gone missing was found in the water.

He drown? Yes. Yes. Well, at least now his poor family can have closure for weeks. They had been looking for him. Well, I, I feel sorry for them. And for him, but I’m not falling apart. And now I’d like to read that story for myself.

Lasagna from the bistro, from Maggie and Victor, Kiki. How nice we can have it for dinner with the green beans that Julie brought over.

What, just, uh, don’t you think it’s maybe time for you to take a shower and get dressed? Not yet, darling. Not right now. Right now I getting dressed reminds me of just wanting to look my best for my sweet husband, and without him here I. No, I just, I just need to sit here right now. Come, come sit with me.

Sit with me.

No. Excuse me. I’m sorry, Abe. I’m putting my foot down. The details are just too upsetting and the doctor said that we have to keep your stress levels low, you know, to a minimum, so we avoid another seizure. I feel fine. Well, you felt fine before the last one, didn’t you? You know, you’re not the only one going through this.

You know, I’m, I’m, I’m scared. I’m scared all the time.

I, I’m sorry. I, I, I wasn’t thinking, I, I, I know this is, this isn’t easy for you. I, I just can’t lose you. Okay. I get it. I get it. I’m, I’m sorry. Then, then I have to go to work and I have to leave you at home alone. Look, I feel, I feel fine. You, you don’t have to worry about me. Okay. Well, I, I better go and get ready now.

Get ready to go to work.

And believe me, darling, I’m doing this for you. This is what’s best for you.

You are being too hard on yourself. You and Steve did everything you could to find a, obviously we didn’t do enough. Right?

You know what the worst part is?

We gave Pauline hope. We told her, it just doesn’t make any sense how he could have got from wherever he was all the way down to the dock without somebody recognizing him and calling the cops. Don’t you believe that? I still believe that. I don’t know how he could have done it or why he fell in the water, but then you got the hospital bracelet.

His name’s on it. The blood. Most important. You have an eyewitness, the only person who saw him these last two weeks. Finally, somebody sees Abe. And what happens the next minute he falls off the dock and drowns in the river.

So you, you got to see Joseph Carter? I did. Uh, I cannot tell you how wonderful it was just to hold my babies and my arms without a prison matron. Just watching me like a hawk. Yeah. They’re with my mom now. We do wish we could have brought them, but obviously they’re, they’re too young to deal with all this.

Right. But we, we know how much they left their grandpa. Yeah. And we did tell them what happened, but they didn’t seem to understand, which is a, a good thing for now.

They seem to be starting fireworks early.

Oh my God. 4th of July. It’s, it’s your anniversary.

What’s wrong? Are you guys fighting? No. No. Theo No we’re not. You’ve given everything that’s been thrown at us this year. I think, uh, we’re doing pretty damn well. So why did you both seem so we’re gonna say it was your anniversary cause we decided that we’re not gonna celebrate this year. Because of Dad Lonnie.

That is the reason why you should celebrate, you know how happy he was about you and Eli, how, how he love that you two got married and how he was over the moon when the babies were born. I know, I know Theo, but to have champagne and a fancy dinner without him there, I can’t do it. I’m sorry. I can’t do it.

I’m sorry, Lonnie, I didn’t mean to upset you. Come here. Yeah. I think we better our head over to Pauline is You wanna come with us? No, I’ll, um, I’ll come over later. I think she’s gonna wanna spend some time alone with you. Yeah. And there’s something I have to do. What do you mean to Pat? Well, first of all, do you really think Abe was physically capable of getting outta the hospital on his own?

At the time I didn’t think so, but I suppose it’s possible. Okay. Well, S AA did wander off on his own. Salem PD puts out an a p b, and for weeks the cops and a whole army of volunteers search for one of the best known men in the city. And no one reports seeing anyone they even think might have been a and one day, weeks later.

The first person to lay eyes on Ave sees him at the exact moment. He walks into the water and drowns, and then the case is closed, all tied up with the ribbon. Something doesn’t add up, baby.

So you’re saying that if egg was so confused and so out of it, he just, he just walked off a dock into the river then how did he survive the weeks before that? No, he was, uh, not only suffering from Amnesia, he was recovering from a head injury. So what did he negotiate the streets on his own. Would you still think that it was Colin Bedford that did it?

I know maybe he kidnapped Abe, I don’t know. But he was in jail most of the time. Abe was missing if someone wasn’t looking after Abe. I don’t understand how he didn’t end up in social services. And thanks to Abe Salem is very proactive in helping the homeless. You know, you’re really, you really kind of scaring me now.

Oh, I’ll get in.

Theo. Theo, I’m so glad you came over. Oh, Steve, look. Look at Theo. Hey man. Okay. I’m so sorry.

This is, uh, this is a tough day. I, I am sorry that, uh, John and I didn’t come through for your dad and for you. You did your best. I just came to say thank you for the donation you made in my dad’s name to the autism charity. Well, we, we know how important that charity was to your dad. We were happy to do it.

And we really loved your dad, and we love you, and we are here for you.

Well, your executives and your long lunch breaks. Mm-hmm. How you feeling? I tell you, I feel a lot better when I get these bullet fragments outta me. Yeah. How you doing these days?

Hey, hey look, I’m not trying to pry, I’m asking as a friend who’s friend. Mine are Romans. Both of you. I don’t want either one of you to get hurt.

What were you just, now

I was thinking of the moment that I found out I wasn’t the person I thought I was. And how my whole life that I knew I changed in an instant

and there was Abe, one thing in my life was still the same, and it was my friendship with Abraham.

Dammit, doc, I just wish that I could have been as good a friend to him as he’s always had been to me. You were, you were. He always knew that about you. Dammit, doc. I was so damn sure that we were gonna find him. I, I was so damn sure that someone had taken him for whatever reason, they were holding him against his will and, and,

And I was so damn wrong.

Well, I’m off to work now.

I Are you still mad at me? No, not mad. I just, uh, I just get a bit lonely when you’re gone. Oh, well I thought you were catching up on body and Soul. I am, but it would be nice to have people who talk back, you know, I was thinking, couldn’t feel come over and hang out for a while. Oh, I forgot to tell you, uh, Theo had to travel back to South Africa.

What? My son left town without saying goodbye. Well, he stopped by on his way to the airport, but you were resting and I didn’t wanna disturb you, but I would’ve wanted to say goodbye. You should have woken me up. I, I know. I, I, I, you’re right. I, I, I’m sorry. What? What, what about your daughter? Huh? Chanel. My stepdaughter, couldn’t she come by and see me?

I just keep thinking of the heartache got brought to Abraham with my secrets and lies. Mama, you more than made up for whatever heartache you caused him by all the love and support you gave him. He was so crazy about you.

Look at that be.

This is delicious. I know things are hard right now, Theo, but you have to remember to eat. I’ll try. And you know what? If you ever are feeling alone or you wanna talk to somebody, we’re here for you. I know that. Thank you. But I think I’m gonna be okay, especially now that my sister’s here. Mama, you’re not going to believe this.

No, but. What is it now of a, let me guess, a cactus. Well, Eli does say I can be a bit prickly if I haven’t had my morning coffee. Mommy.

Oh. Hi, mama. I’m home. My baby girl, my darling, my precious girl.

Come on, man. What’s the matter with you? What? What, honey? What? I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. From the moment I woke up here, all I’ve been thinking about and talking about is myself, and I know you’re going through this too, sweetheart. It’s hitting me hard too. It doesn’t mean that you can’t talk to me about how you’re feeling.

Look, the only way that we’re going to get through this, and I I, I mean beyond the two of us way, we’re all going to get through this is talk about our feelings, share our feelings. In fact, I think I have an idea.

Paulina must have been thrilled to see Lonnie. God bless Eli for bringing her home. It’s just a furlough. Well, I think it’s really important that your whole family is together for the funeral. Yeah.

When my mom died, I was able to say bye to her, but. My dad, he just, he just went away. He just disappeared and then drowned. I just, I, it, it doesn’t make sense to me. I,

I am so grateful that you’re here, Lonnie. I’m so very, very grateful, even if it is for such a terrible, sad reason. Yeah, I’m grateful too. I am beyond grateful to be free, even if it is for a short time so that I can be here with my mama and my sister and my brother. Thing is, um, some part of me just, it just doesn’t, uh, just don’t feel that.

Dad is really gone. Mm-hmm. It’s so surreal. Yes, it is. It is. And oh, the way it happened. Oh Lord Lonnie, it just doesn’t make sense to me. Maybe, I suppose partly because we, we didn’t get to say goodbye to him. Never got to see him touch him,

and how the hell are we supposed to have a proper home going when we don’t have a body?

Well, Chanel was intending to come over to visit with her. Step, pop, pop, step, pop, pop. Oh yeah. That’s a little, uh, pet name that she has for you. You love it when she calls you that and yet I cringe on you. Say it anyway. As I was just getting ready to say, Chanel has just been so swamped at the bakery, so, so another day is staring at the walls.

What, how luckily for you body and soul is fitting to get better. You’re about to meet Lorna. She’s back Who? That’s Lorna. Lorna is just one of the great soap bitches of all times. And trust me when I tell you, you gonna love to hate her. Check it out.

I know that it would help us all to accept what happened, but given a case like this, there’s just no telling when or. Even if his body will ever be found and yet, and yet what? Sweetheart? They didn’t waste any time declaring him dead, did they? Even though there’s no evidence to prove it for a fact.

Lonnie, no, Eli. I wanna see that evidence for myself. I wanna go down to the station. That’s against policy Mia, but you know, given the circumstances, I’m sure Ray wouldn’t, he wouldn’t mind and I don’t care if he would mind. Can we go now? Oh, wait a minute, darling. Lanie you. You’re out of prison today. It’s your anniversary.

You shouldn’t be spending at a police station, especially since nothing you find down there at that police station will bring a back to us. Mama. I have to see that evidence for myself. Or I will never sleep again. Paulina, look, when she gets like this, you just got I know. I know. There’s no changing her mind.

Tell me something. I don’t know. Thank you.

We’ll be back as soon as we can. Well, I’m gonna walk out with you. I need to head back over to the baby. You call me if you need anything. Okay? You gonna be all right alone. I think I should get used to it, don’t you? Hey, you too. I’m just about to call you. Look who’s here. Oh. Oh my goodness. Oh, good to see you.

I’m so sorry about your dad. Thank you. Good to see you kiddo. Be on. Sorry. I know how hard you work to find him. And you too. I’m very grateful. Dad was a good man. He one of the best. We loved him a lot. He knew that. He used to say. He used to say, okay. Do you wanna talk about this? No, actually, um, I think I should get going now.

Are you sure? You’re all right. Lonnie’s. Someone furlough. I’ll be fine. Lonnie’s here. Please, please give her a love and, and send her love to Paulina as well. Tell her to call us if there’s anything we can do. I will. It was nice to see you all again. Yeah, you too Sweet. Take kid. Come back anytime. Okay.

Goodness. Poor kid.

Damnit. Should have found him. You should have found him. We should have found him. You too are blaming yourselves entirely too much for this. You did everything you could. You searched and searched. Come on. You left no stone unturned. You did your very best. And I’m sure if were here, He would say the same thing.

It’s burned.

So that’s Lorna. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Like I said, one of the greatest soaper bitches of all time, so large than life, so over the top. So outrageous that Susan Lucci and Heather Lockney are fired, their agents. Oh. Oh, okay. I wish I could sit here and watch with you five more minutes, but then I’ll be late for work.

Happy watching. Thanks. Oh, oh, oh. When I come home, I’m gonna need to hear all about your favorite cat fight.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the most unstoppable of.

You okay?

Yeah,

it’s just, it’s really weird being back here. So many memories.

Mainly meeting my new partner. And falling in love with him, and him falling even more in love with you. Okay. And, uh, they got married. Mm-hmm. And they lived happily ever after. Okay. Okay. Fine. With a few challenges, but nothing that they couldn’t handle. Mm. Because they were tough. So tough. And so enough,

uh, you know, doc, you’re right. Steve and I, we busted our ass. We did our damnedest to find Abe. You know what I’m thinking? I’m thinking that maybe I’m just blaming myself because it’s a hell of a lot easier than accepting the fact that he’s gone. Yeah. It’s the same for me. Yeah. Hey, did I tell you I had another dream about him this morning?

I dreamt that I found him down on the docks, but he just walked away from me. Didn’t go in the water. He just walked away from me. You didn’t tell me that. I thought I did. Why don’t you tell me about the end of the dream, what, whatever details you can remember.

I was getting on my phone to call Paulina and

I hear Abe say that he was sorry that he couldn’t stay. I said, what do you mean by that? And he just said, goodbye, old friend. And he turned around and he walked off into the fog and I kept calling on him and he was gone.

What is it?

I was thinking that maybe just, maybe this is not really about John’s guilt, the dream. I mean, maybe it’s about. John’s something that, there’s something wrong here. That’s what I’ve been saying. Abe was injured, he had amnesia. How did he survive all those weeks? With no one seeing him looking after him.

Yeah. And this, this witness, the one and only person to see him is the one who watches him go in the water. That means eight had to get from wherever he was all the way down to the dock without anyone seeing him. We need to get back to work.

This is a lab report matching the blood from the pylon to AIDS blood sample that was on record at the hospital. D. Exact match. Exact match. Hmm.

When I first came to Salem, I just, I knew I was my biological father and I was determined to prove it. My mom said, you two weren’t together very long. She didn’t even tell me how you guys met. Well, she almost crashed into my car on her way to singing Friend’s Wedding Dr. Marlena Evans, they went to college together.

Yeah,

she, um, she doesn’t know about you either, Bonnie, didn’t you, you ever wonder who your father was? Of course I did. Probably thought he was some dent.

When your mother left Hannah,

I had no idea she was pregnant.

How could she not tell me I had a daughter?

I was wrong about the d n. But Abe, Abe is your father in every way that counts.

What else is in there? Here’s a statement from Jerry Prentice. He saw your dad go in the water.

What’s this? It looks like a professional photo. Yeah, detective Hunter dug that up. Turns out Jerry Prentice is an actor.

Oh, well that’s a little better.

You wanted to see me, Ms. DeLorean?

It’s about time you got here. I have a job for you.

What kind of job?

I need someone who could pretend to be the true and rightful heir to the DeLorean fortune, and that is where you come in.

Abe: Theo?

Paulina: Oh, Nurse King, what?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Being at the hospital with me must have been difficult, but it, it meant a lot to me. I’m glad I could be there. Not as glad as I am.

Erica, you know, I should, I should go get that food for you. You’re to look a little pal.

What the hell have I walked in on? Oh, Leo Star. I never thought I’d say this, but thank God you are here. Well, I don’t mean to kink shame, but what is going on here? Oh, well, you know, playing cops and robbers can get a little outta hand, seriously. Of, of course not you, imbecile. Our sister, Megan did this to us.

She’s held US cap down here for weeks, weeks. Oh my gosh. I knew it. I knew it. You knew? Well, I knew she was up to something, so I followed her here. Lady Whistleblower can always sniff out a good story, and you’d be surprised how more often than not my nose leads me to uncovering an underground bondage dungeon just like yours.

Oh god. All right. This isn’t a bondage dungeon, huh? Well, I should hope not. It’s not usually siblings. I find all tied up together. So why did Megan do this to you? Because we found out that she was planning on

well out with it. Handsome planning on what? Uh,

I don’t, I don’t remember.

Hey, where is the host? I mean, people are starting to get a little restless Honored. Guests welcome. Now please accept my apologies for the delay. In order to make this a really special night tonight, I had to bring a bottle of my father’s very favorite champagne. Just took me a little longer to get it than I expected, but I’m here now and I’m so glad that you are all here too.

Because there is nothing in this world more important than family is there. I am so grateful that you have all welcomed me back into your bosom,

and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host this lovely gathering for my newfound brother and his gorgeous bride to be. And I just know that father is smiling down on us now. Happy to see us all together again. Well, at least most of us. Yeah, very few of us. And yes, I know that we have our differences, but we overcome them, don’t we?

That’s what families do. Well, normal family is like yours. My sister Megan, she’s an assassin. Thomas Banks had to kill us. So all those things are a little bit hard to overcome. Mm-hmm. I’m so sorry for all of the lost years that we could have spent together, but I look forward to the many, many happy years to come.

And now I want everyone to grab a glass of champagne so we can toast the happy couple, the lovely Gabriela and my charming brother Stephan. Oh my God. Harris Michaels, what the hell are you doing here?

Sorry, Kate. Commander Michaels is in accepting calls at this time. He’s under new management and Megan and Ivory, give him his first assignment. Eliminate Stephan Demara.

Sorry to interrupt the festivities, but I’m gonna need everyone to move to that side of the room right now. No sudden movements. Let’s go. I’d hate for my friend here cause I have to start barking orders. Michaels, what are you doing? I’m here to eliminate a threat. What threat? Oh my God, don’t you see? I’m the threat.

He’s here to kill me.

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

This looks delicious. Well, Harold, he did most of the work, but for the record, I did toast the toast. Oh, really? Mm-hmm. I was just gonna say how toasty the toast looks. I think you found your new calling. You know what? Drink some tea. Stay hydrated. The doctor’s orders. Okay.

Oh yeah. It’s the spot. It’s even worth all your nagging. I’m looking out for you and the baby. Yeah, only the baby’s father was so attentive. Eric, I, I, I really do appreciate your help, but EJ should be the one doing this instead of being on some secret business trip where he couldn’t even be bothered to answer his phone.

Well, I’m sure he has his reasons. Well, they’re not gonna be good enough. It’s like he’s forgotten what’s important. This baby isn’t even born yet. He’s already abandoned us.

You don’t remember? Come on. This isn’t like your locker combination, Sean, but let me think. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Ah, it’s like the memory is evaporated from my brain. I, I know something should be there, but it’s not. I, I, I dunno. What do you think? Hm? What do you think? What do I think? Hm. Um, oh, I, I think that Megan injected us with something.

She’d make us forget, forget what her plan. Uh, uh, probably, um, the thing is, is that I have no idea what, uh, what, you know, what? I, I don’t even, I don’t know any of this. I might have a vague idea. Does it have something to do with her son, Dimitri? What about it? Well, he proposed to my best friend Gwen, but I think he and mommy dearest have an ulterior motive.

Does any of that ring a bell? Oh, actually, I. It does sound familiar.

It’s all happening right upstairs. Soon Stefan will be dead. And I’ll be there to pick up the pieces for Gabby Lee.

What doing here?

Can’t you see? This man wants revenge for everything that I did to him. He even came to my house a couple of weeks ago and threatened me. Mother, why didn’t you tell me? I, I thought he was all talk that it was just a hollow threat. I didn’t realize that he was this terrain enough. No, Michaels. You wanna hurt my mother?

You’re gonna go through me first. No, Dimitri, stay outta this. Relax. I’m not here to kill either one of you. Oh, thank God. I’m here to kill Stephan.

You’re here to kill Stephan. Yeah, I don’t understand. You don’t even know me. I assure you, Mr. Damara, there’s nothing personal. I’m just following orders. Whose orders?

I can’t. Just watch him do this. We’ll call the police.

Drop it. I’m sorry.

Next person I see with the phone will not get a warning. Is that understood?

This can go one of two ways. Everybody can do as they’re told and survive the night, or I can take out as many people as I have to to complete my mission. Okay. You said earlier you were eliminating a threat. How am I a threat to you? Isn’t it obvious, Stephan? I mean, who would consider you a threat?

No. Yeah. It has to be EJ who, who’s conveniently not at this party, who’s been plotting against you this entire time, who would be crazy enough to hire this lunatic to take you out. Is that true? Did my brother hire you? Answer me, dammit.

Fine. If you must know

it wasn’t ej I. And who, who are you working for?

The man who wants you dead is Lee Chen. What? What?

I didn’t hear you sneak up on me. Oh, I’m not sneaking up on anyone. I’m just trying to go to my sister’s engagement party. Running a little late, aren’t you? Yeah. Well, things have been a little hectic down at the station. Of course, I heard about Mayor Carver. I’m so sorry. Uh, you still haven’t answered to my question.

What are you doing lurking about? No one’s lurking, but I was just, uh, passing through. Yeah. Seemed a little nervous to be just passing through. I’m not, you were thinking about going up there. Weren’t you crashing the party, creating a scene?

Fine. You got me. Commissioner Guilty’s charged.

Okay. Okay. I was right. Lady. Whistleblower strikes again. Megan and her son aren’t just using Gwen, but why? I, I, I don’t remember. Damn it. Woman. What you think? Don’t get your hands off of you. Little creep. Listen, you’re friends with Gwen too, don’t you wanna help her? Something tells me that my sister’s plan is a lot more sinister than manipulating your friend.

I, I feel like it’s more high stakes, like it’s life or death. Are you saying Gwen is in danger? I feel like someone else is the main target. Like who? I don’t know. It’s just a gut feeling. Oh my God, you two are useless. Oh no. You know who is useless. You found us ages ago and you still haven’t UNT yet. It would help if you asked nicely unless you wanna fully commit to your non day plume lady.

I suggest you untie us now. I even say, please, no. Hey,

I’m sorry. I am sure the last thing you wanna hear is me complaining about ej. It’s okay. I mean, you have every right to be angry. Look, you, you, you should go. Don’t feel obligated to stay it. I don’t feel obligated. And you know what? You shouldn’t be alone right now. No, I, I told you the cramps turned out to be nothing trip.

And the ob g y n said that I’m fine. And so is the baby besides Harold’s here if I need anything. Are you sure? I’m sure.

All right. Okay, thanks. Listen, thanks again. I, I am grateful. That I can still count on You always.

I can’t do this. I’m with ej.

Hi. Yeah. Well then where is he?

I’m sorry, I, I’m sorry. I just, I felt that old pool between us and those old feelings of being abandoned and worthless. Okay. You shouldn’t feel either. And he jay’s a jackass for doing this to you. And if that baby were mine,

I’m sorry. That’s not helpful.

That’s okay. You would’ve been the perfect father

and you still can be if things work out with you. And Sloane,

thank you for saying that. It’s the truth.

Speaking of which, I have some hard truths to face with EJ if I ever see him again. That is, And if I do or when I do, I don’t know if I can forgive him for this disappearing when I need him the most. I am gonna kill when I right there. Oh, Nicole. Thank God, ej,

we put you up to this. Is that so hard to believe? Apparently the guy still has something for you. And, and that maniac thinks that killing my fiance is the way to win bad my love. I believe it’s more of a, if I can’t have her then good job. Ralph Harris is convinced he’s working solely for Lee. Just as I planned, we’re we’re just as supposed to believe a crazy man with a gun.

Look, I know my brother and he would never hire someone to kill Stephan. He’s not a murderer. He did pull the plug on me when I was in a coma that was different. Okay. Making a split second mistake is a whole lot different than plotting to murder someone in cold blood because he says something you, you know, that’s not Lee.

Well, Stefan’s, right? Lee has a history of trying to eliminate his competition by any means necessary, but my brother has accepted that you moved on Gabby. I mean, he didn’t even fight to the divorce. He let you go. Wendy. Wendy, when we ran into Lee earlier tonight, he insisted you not come to this party.

That was just. About loyalty to him. Yeah. Boy, he didn’t want you getting caught up in the crossfire.

Lee, you need to stay away from this party. Do you hear me? Do you understand you have caused Gabby enough pain already? I know you’re right. I, it’s just, it’s just what Lee, I ran into my sister and Johnny Damara as they were headed in, and Gabby and Stephan, and honestly I tried to be happy for them, but seeing them, knowing what’s going on in there, I just can’t get it outta my head.

What could have been. I loved your sister so much. I still do. Okay. I hear you and I understand because I have been in a similar situation myself, but what you need to understand is what you and Gabby had before it is over. You need to accept that.

You can’t just willow away feelings brave. Sure you know that even now. Right now, knowing how happy they are up there just breaks my heart.

So it’s true. Lee put you up to this. Why would I lie? What the hell happened to, to turning your life around wanting redemption for all of the terrible things that you, this isn’t you, is it? You’ve been brainwashed again. This time by Lee Shin. No, you’re right. Chad Lee’s done this before. He, he brainwashed han into forgetting that he loved me and now he’s brainwashed hairs into becoming his assassin.

Owens Town hasn’t been brainwashed. Ah, it’s sort of a thing here. Just wait until somebody pulls off a Mission Impossible style mask. Mid party crash. Right? Shut up, everyone. Shut up. I don’t know what you’re talking about.

All I know is I have orders from Lee to kill you.

It’s about that time.

Aj, you’re here. Yes. Thank God I’m here with you. Um, when did you get back in town? I never left. What? Megan locked me in the tunnel. Hey, hey. US, us struck us in the tunnels. Okay. Why would she do that? We don’t know, but we’re pretty sure she gave us something that’s affecting our memories. Good God. How did you escape?

Well, I mean, thankfully Leo Stark found us and he set us free. Leo Stark? Yeah. What was he doing down there? No idea. I don’t remember.

Ah, Megan must be using this as her base of operations, so there has got to be something down here.

Oh my Gaga, jackpot pot. This is the good stuff. Ancestral wealth tear bubbly. No legal focused. No. Today you are a hero. You have got to find proof that Dimitri is up to no good. It’s the only way to stop going from getting hurt. Okay?

No. Oh, I can’t watch Michael’s. Michaels. Michaels. Just stop. All right. You don’t wanna do this. Orders are orders. But you don’t have to follow them. Whatever Lee did to you, Michaels fight it. Do not listen to Lee’s voice in your head. Michaels, you listen to your own. Okay? Deep down, you know this is wrong.

Think about that time that you set that bomb off at my apartment in Seattle. You felt terrible about that after you broke free from the brainwashing. You hated Megan for doing that to you. Um, how about we don’t remind the man with the gun how much he hates me? Please, please don’t let me make you do this.

You’re not a murderer. Um, actually, technically he is a murderer. I read his case and there were several instances where. Sorry, I have an idea. Let, let me get Lee on the phone and you know what? You probably think I’m gonna call 9 1 1. You get him on the phone and let me just talk to him right now. I can talk him out of this.

Please, please.

Thanks Ray. As much as I’m hurting, Hoda just made it worse. Humiliating myself at Gabby and Seven’s party. Nah, I’m glad you stopped me. I didn’t do it for you. Well, either way, you helped me and I appreciate it and I promise I’m headed straight home. Good. Give my congratulations to the happy couple.

Fair enough. Goodnight Lee.

Hopefully by the time you get up there, it’ll be too late. The job will have been completed.

Please let me call Lee. I I can straighten this up. Drop the phone, but Gabby’s right, she and I can make my brother realize what a mistake this is just two minutes. I said drop the phone right now, Gabby. Just do what he says. But Gabby,

I didn’t, I didn’t want to hurt Lee. Okay. Just my, my heart belongs to Stephan. He’s the only person that’s ever understood me, the real me. Everything I am and love me for it, not in spite of it. So if you shoot him, then you have to shoot me too, Gabby. Yes, please. I cannot live without him. Okay. I can’t. I can’t.

So please, I’m telling you, please don’t do this. Please don’t. I’m sorry, but I have no choice.

What happened?

Mother,

you shot me.

There’s just so much blood. Um, it’s okay. Um. I’m, I’m gonna go get help. Just keep putting pressure on it. Okay. I’ll be back. Hang on.

Why haven’t I heard from Megan? Steph should be good and dead by now.

Kevin, what are you doing here? Are you supposed to be your engagement party? I was there. I was there, and then Harris Michael showed up and killed Stephan. Oh my God. He didn’t hurt you, did he? No. You must be devastated. I was at first. Then I realized, Harry said me a favor. Did you A, did you a favor? What do you mean?

I thought, I love Stephan. But now that he’s gone, I realize you’re the only man ever truly loved. Wait, wait, wait. Don’t you need time to mourn? I can mourn Stephan tomorrow to tonight. I want you to rish me.

Hurry home to me, Gabby. You gotta let me go. I get a job to do him sit. Michael said that Lee ordered him to kill Stephan. We suspected, uh, that Lee brainwashed him. Lee dammit saw Lee outside. He was staring up here. Yeah, I thought he was going to come up here and wreak havoc and make a fool of himself.

Obviously it was much worse.

Okay. Um, the paramedics are on their way. She’s still unconscious. Okay. Don’t give up hope. Okay. She’s soon gonna get the help she needs. Mm-hmm. Hey, You all right.

Okay. Let’s get you outta here. Let’s go. Come on. How were you thinking going after him? Like that you could have gotten yourself killed. No, he was trying to kill you. You and he’s, how about thank you for saving my life. You were amazingly brave. You’re my hero. You Thank you for saving my life. And you are amazingly brave, but please.

Don’t do something that reckless ever again. No. I had to stop him. I couldn’t lose you. Not again. It’s okay. It’s okay now. He tried to keep us apart again and he failed again. Nothing can separate us. You and I, were gonna get married. We’re gonna have a long, wonderful life together and Lee is gonna pay for this and so is everybody else who helped him out.

So Megan held you to prisoner this whole time evil sadistic bitch, but you texted me. No, no, I, I did not. How I wish I could have, it must have been Megan using my phone obviously. Well, that explains why you didn’t answer my calls,

ej. I, I thought you abandoned me and the baby. Nicole. Nicole, I will never abandon you. You and this baby mean everything to me. You hear me? Everything.

Did you meet with a specialist? I did. And. She thinks that I can carry this baby to term. Oh my God, that’s wonderful news. That’s wonderful news. After all these years, we’re finally going to have a child together.

Mm.

I feel so much better after that shower. It helped clear some of the fogginess outta my head. Hey Jay, we really should have a doctor take a look at you. I mean, Megan’s drugs could have some side effects. We will. But first I want to address the elephant in the room. What do you mean? I think you know, Eric, what about him?

What was he doing here? Well, trust me, he came over for a very good reason, and, and we will talk about that, just not now. Okay. The, but the point is it, it was a blessing in disguise because I got some cramping. He took me to the hospital and, and everything’s fine. Everything’s fine. But Eric wanted to stay because, well, you, you weren’t around so I disappeared.

You thought the worst of me, that I didn’t care about you all. Al child, and you turned to Eric. No, it’s not how it went. Ej, you know how I feel about you. Do I, I mean, a few weeks ago I told you that I love you and you, you haven’t set it back.

I know, and I’m sorry. And when I think about how Megan could have killed you, I realize that I,

I do. I I love you.

You look skeptical. I, I just feel like I might have talked you into saying that. No, I pressured you. I hate to No, you, you didn’t. I, I, I said it because I feel it. You are the father of my child and the man I wanna be with. And if you don’t believe me, And maybe this will convince you, oh, I’m here. Mm-hmm.

Yes. I, I would like to report a kidnapping. Uh, my brother and I, ugh, ugh. My wicked witch of a sister. Actually, no. I, I don’t remember how it happened. No, no, no, no. I’m not kidding. Why would I joke about something so serious? You know, I just, just hold on. I, my brother. DJ.

Well, so much for being boy’s hero. At least I got this lovely souvenir. Uh, I just wish those two bozos could remember what Megan and Dimitri are up to. So I could tell my poorly diluted BFF before it’s too late. She would dump that miserable SOB and never look back.

Dimitri. Yeah. How’s your mom? They managed to keep her stable in the ambulance, and then they just rushed her straight into surgery as soon as we got here. When she just, she, she looked so pale. She, she was so fragile. Listen to me. She cheated death once, didn’t she? Mm-hmm. She’s, she’s gonna do it again.

Thank you. Thank you for your support. I’m sure you want to get home and I, I totally understand Dave. No, no, I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here.

You have to let me go. It’s not gonna happen. I promise. Ray, if I’d look after you until back up. A squad car just pulled up. Police should be here any minute. I have a mission to complete. Michael’s the mission’s over. You failed

Dr. Ralphs handy work. Yeah, I’d bet. Good money on it. Poor guy. Can’t catch a break. First, he’s brainwashed by Megan. Now, lay shin.

I can’t believe my brother did something so crazy when I, uh, when I lost Chanel to my sister, I was so desperate to get her back. I almost did something very underhanded. Did you brainwash a Navy seal to kill Allie? No, of course not. You’re not a criminal heartless bastard with no conscience.

There’s no excuse for the horrible, unforgivable thing my brother did, none at all, and now he’s going have to face the consequences.

What are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be at your engagement party? I was there, but it ended early when Harris Michael showed up with a gun. What? Why? To kill Stephan. Oh my God, Gabby, I’m so sorry. Poor Stephan. I Lee. Don’t bury me just yet. Stephan. Thank God you’re okay. Drop the act. You son of a bitch.

I have to go. What? Act please. Chin. You go under arrest for the attempted murder of Stephan Damira.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Damn it.

Just not according to your plan.

You didn’t kill him, did you? Is he all right? Of course I didn’t kill him, but since he’s already broken free from your control once I had to administer an especially intense regimen, so you can rest Assured Commander Michaels will be doing only your bidding from now on. Are you sure that he’s ready for the job that I need him to do tonight?

Don’t you worry, this will be your brother Stefan’s last night on earth.

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

Well, I am so glad that I ran into you both. Nice to meet you, and that I could extend the invitation. Oh. Like I said, it’ll be a little weird for me to be there since it’s almost Gabby’s sister-in-law, but I am really happy for her and for Stephan, so I’m glad that we can celebrate their engagement. Yeah.

Yeah, me too. Great. Very generous of you both. And it means a lot to my mother. She’s trying to do something nice for them, but, uh, well, to be honest with you, the attendance on the Demer side is looking a little thin. Well, we’ll help with that. The more the merrier. Right.

You’ll find out soon enough.

Ah. Thank you.

I hope you’re not planning on spending the evening drinking all night. That’s the current plan. Unless you can finagle me an invitation to the party or a press pass at least. I’m sorry, my darling lady whistleblower is just going to have to have the night off. Dimitri’s hoping for a very romantic evening and I don’t want you spoiling it.

Me spoil a good time. Never. I’m constitutionally incapable. No. Yes. I used to think that, but now I think you are constitutionally incapable of trusting anyone, giving anyone the benefit of the doubt. Oh, right. How disappointing that I don’t trust a guy who meets you beds, you and wants to put a ring on it in 24 hours.

Come on, Gwenny. Even I don’t move that fast. Okay, Matty, I hope you don’t take this the wrong way, but the past few months we’ve been commiserating. Have we not been losers in love and now my Prince charming has literally fallen into my lap while you are still a loser. No. I never said that. Oh, that’s what you meant.

No, it’s not. I’m just, I’m saying that while I’ve had this wonderful bit of luck, I know that you haven’t, and I’m wondering if perhaps you’re just a wee bit jealous.

Gwen Ek. Yikes. Scraping the bottom of the barrel. Are he? Oh, Chad Damara is gonna be there. Look at that. Well, at least a few Damara will be in attendance, huh? Yeah. Well, wife’s the only one from my side that’s coming and he’s so busy working Abe car’s space. He said he, he’s only gonna be able to stop by.

This probably gonna suck. No. Impossible. Yes. You’re gonna be there. I’m gonna be there. And I plan on having a grand old time celebrating us. Our love and the fact that you and I are suing the husband and wife again. You’re right. No, you’re right. Yes. Us being there together, that’s all that matters. That’s right.

No offense, but Nicole’s the least of our problems at this moment. Oh my God. I am starving. I’m starting to contemplate cannibalism. Well, I suppose that is the demure way. I can’t believe my sister did this to me.

Oh, and you, of course. I cannot think how this is gonna end. Okay, Emma, Kristen, don’t go there again. How can I not, how can I not? There’s no reason for her to keep us alive, is there.

He hardly looks like a man prepared to carry out an assassination. Later tonight. The procedure was taxing, but I’m confident. Commander Michaels, who will be ready. He better be father would roll over in his grave if Stephan handed his entire legacy to that conniving. Gabby Hernandez. Demira should be mine.

There’s only one fly in the ointment. Well, two actually. DJ and Kristen. I can hardly take out the entire family, but if I let them go, they’ll turn me into the authorities and they’ll ruin everything that I’ve planned. Don’t you have faith in me by now, Megan?

I know how to ensure that won’t happen.

Why on earth would I be jealous? Just because you’re being wooed and proposed to by a rich, gorgeous guy with a magic penis. Oh God sake, Matthew, we really going there again. You never denied he had one. That’s because you made a very stupid lewd joke, which I was trying to forget about, but since you won’t drop it, yes, Dimitri and I are quite compatible physically.

And also he has a magic penis. Oh God. Can you just stay on topic please? What was the topic again that you are for no apparent reason. Quite jealous and still very suspicious of Dimitri even though we have obviously ruled out that it’s not money or reputation laundering or, or he’s not marrying me for a green card.

So what are his ulterior motives? I mean, what other possible option is there? Health insurance. He’s from Europe. Health insurance is free, really, even for Botox and fillers. I’m pretty sure that you have to pay for that everywhere. But look, just consider this, will you? It could be quite simple for Dimitri that perhaps it was just not at first sight.

Hmm. I mean, you know that’s possible, don’t you? Even for friends. I knew that when I first saw you, I loved you and that I always would, fuck. I just made my heart go pitter powder. Yes. Well, I meant it.

Okay. Maybe you’re right. Uh, come again. Sorry. Do, do my ears deceive me. Did I actually just hear you say that I am right? No, I said maybe. And maybe I am a teensy bit jealous that you have found your prince charming, as you say, whereas nobody’s even flirted with me in the last millennium. Oh, come on.

That’s not true. And that’s how it feels. But petty jealousy aside, Lord, I am still certain that magic penis guy is up to something. Ah.

You’re right, of course. The more the merrier. See you at the bistro. Yes. Yes, we will. It should be a great celebration.

You know, I, I was surprised that, that we even wanted to go to the party. Well, Gabby is the closest thing I’ve ever had to a sister, and I don’t think she holds what happened between her and my brother against me, or even against him. I just, I think, I hope that she understands that Lee kind of lost his mind when Stephan came back.

Yeah. He knew he was gonna lose Gabby. Right. And so he did a lot of things. He regrets now. I mean, he was just trying so hard to hold onto her because he loved her so much.

Now I’m really glad he’s finally come to his senses and realized he has to move on.

Hey, you two. Hi. Hi. Hi. It’s good to see you. Hello. Overdressed for the pub though, aren’t you? Oh, no, we’re not. Uh, we’re not having dinner here tonight. We just wanted to stop by and see how you’re doing. Me too. Hey. I know you guys are close. I know, I, the, the whole thing is so terrible. I just, I mean, I still can’t believe it, you know, I just haven’t processed it really?

Yeah, we haven’t either. It’s just so awful and sad. Feels kind of wrong to be going to a party. Yeah. So Stefan and Gabby’s engagement party, I didn’t want to go, but, uh, you know, my sister Megan, she can be. Consistent. Megan, you know, I still don’t know why Megan was so Help Ben on throwing us this party.

Who cares? Party’s a party. True. I guess we could give her the benefit of the doubt. Assume she means well, I think she is capable of that as long as she’s not being a power hungry bitch on wheels. Right. Well, I guess I should get ready. Uh, you know, actually, I do need some help getting into my dress. Yeah.

Yeah. Mm-hmm. I’m your man.

Nicole, look at me. Look at me. Everything is gonna be okay. You’re not gonna lose this baby. You don’t know that Eric, Nicole, look, the, the cramps, they’re coming in less frequently. You’re not spotting, are you? All right, then well listen. You heard what the OB said. She said the most important thing for you and your baby’s health is just to try and relax.

Well, I can’t relax. I’ve been down this road too many times. This is nothing like what’s happened in the past. The cramps are coming in less frequently. You’re not spotting what? What is with that look? It’s just that you’re being so kind and and caring, and this isn’t even your baby. And after what happened with Jada, Eric, I, Hey, hey, hey, stop.

Listen to me. Don’t you know by now I care about you. Even with all the ups and downs that we’ve been through, I’m not going anywhere. Okay. I’m sorry that ejs not here for you right now, but I am.

I’m all for finding a way out of here, but it feels like we’ve tried everything. Got any new ideas? Well, if I had Susan’s teeth, I could knock through these ropes. Look. I don’t think we’re in imminent danger. If Megan wanted to kill us, she would’ve done it already. Well, maybe she is just waiting for the right time.

She has no qualms about killing Stephan. Why not us two?

CRS 17. Who’s a rescue? Oh, Ralph, you’re a genius. If Kristen and EJ can’t remember that I kidnapped them or admitted that I planned to kill Stephan, then I am free and clear. Can you make them forget that? And only that I’ve gotten a lot of practice with this drug in recent years. How much they forget is dosage dependent.

We should be able to wake out the last week or two with very little problem. Excellent. So I have a little bit of time before the party if you hand me that dose. I’ll take care of them on my way.

Now that is something to celebrate.

See you there, commander. You better not let me down this time.

Eric, I, I, I appreciate you being here for me, but it is a lot to ask. You didn’t ask. I still, I just, I, I just feel like, like, like what? Like I don’t deserve to be comforted. Like I’m being punished. Nicole, stop it. There’s a lot of things about my faith that I question. That’s not one of them. God doesn’t punish people by scaring ’em this way.

That’s not how it works.

Look, I’m gonna go see what’s keeping the dog there. All right? So I just want you to relax. I’ll be right back.

God,

don’t wait up. Okay. Gwynnie promise me this, if dreamy Dimitri pressures you to accept his proposal tonight, you will at least call me first. Why, so you can talk me out a bit? No. So you can see if I dug anything up. Oh God. Matty, please. Can you just give it a rest? I mean, whatcha are you gonna find in three hours anyway?

Are you kidding me? The next three hours are perfect for finding things out. All the de mirrors will be out tonight. It is the ideal time for me to swing by the mansion, nose around a bit, look for clues. Who knows? I may even get a story out of it. Oh yeah, you’ll definitely find clues. That place is murder mayhem central.

But if you are looking for dimitri’s ulterior motive, it doesn’t matter how hard you look. Because there isn’t one We’ll see about that. I can’t possibly suck in any more than this. No, that’s, that’s not the problem. I just can’t get it up. Well, I beg to differ. I, I’m talking about the zipper. Right? And you know what, maybe, maybe this is a sign.

A sign meaning, meaning that, uh, maybe instead of. Putting clothes on. You should be taking clothes off. I like the way things, yeah,

don’t worry about Kate. I’ll take care of her next. I just wanna make certain, none of this will be traced back to us, but stop worrying. Lee. Commander Michaels is firmly back on my team. So he’ll take Stefan out at the party tonight and then you’ll be free to move on with Gabby and we’ll both get what we want.

Pleasure doing business with you.

Hey This’s, your uh, brother. Hey Lee. Hey, I see Case you never dress up. Oh, we got a last minute invite to a party, not Gabby and Stephan’s engagement party. Well, yes, as a matter of fact, no, I I don’t want you to go.

Wait, what did, what did you just say about Megan? Just that she insisted that, um, that we go to that, uh, a party. And I, I still hate her for what she did do. In fact, out of all the people that are gonna be there, I hate 90% of them, but 90% of the time. Okay. Yeah. I just, when exactly did she, um, send that invitation?

Oh, a little while ago. Why is something wrong, wrong? No, no. I, I just tried to avoid her at all costs. Well, then I’d stay away from the bistro for the next few hours cause she’s hosting. If you want, we can give her your fondest regards. Hmm.

Don’t look at me like that father. I’m only doing what’s best for the entire family. And as for Stephan, you never even knew he existed. And honestly, I don’t think you would’ve liked him very much. Oh, he’s so easily manipulated by that woman. Very weak. No, I don’t think you’ll be shedding any tears over this.

Whatever you are,

mother, what are you doing?

Kate, are you sure? You’re all right? No, I’m fine. I’m fine. I just, uh, I just despise the woman, you know, not to mention her son. They deviance both of them. I’m really sorry for what they put you through. Hello? It’s all over now. Nice to you. In fact, I wouldn’t be here now if it wasn’t for you. I’m damn grateful You are.

Okay. Uter, you have a party to go to, right? Yeah. We should go. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Sooner we get there the sooner we can leave. Mm-hmm. Right. We’ll have fun, okay? Okay. It’s gonna be lit. No, you take care, Kate. Yeah, you too.

Finally changed your ringtone, huh? Yeah. What You’re not gonna answer. It is just spam. Probably someone wanting to offer me an extended auto warranty. Yeah, dude, I, I get those all the time. Right. Well, you were just about to tell us why don’t you want us to go to the party? What I should think it’d be obvious, Stephan humiliating me of me to be brutally honest.

It’s very embarrassing,

but if you really want to go, I know you’re very fond of Gabby, so Yeah, we are. Just promise me that you’ll watch your back. You never know what can happen in a room full of Demaris. No offense not taken. I know exactly what you mean.

Mm-hmm. Thank you. Stuck zipper. Thank you. But you know, we better get, move on or we’re gonna be late to a party. Or maybe, and I’m just spit balling here. Maybe we don’t go, you know, everybody else is sent along their regrets. Maybe we should do the same.

Oh, I was just going down to get a few bottles of Christophe for the party tonight, huh? Well, it’d also been up to, I’ve texted about a dozen times. I know, sweetheart, I’m sorry. I’ve just been so busy planning everything for the party. There’s so many little details, but tell me. Has she accepted your proposal?

No, not yet. Only because we have been rudely interrupted by her Weasley, overprotective little roommate. Damn it. She needs to accept that proposal. Yes, I know mother, but she has agreed to come to the party tonight and I’m sure that all of this engagement, excitement will be contagious. I am very confident that I’ll be able to persuade her to accept this evening.

You’d better be confident. I’m sure I don’t need to remind you about the small fortune that’s ATS stake. Mother, you really don’t.

I’ll see you there tonight. Can’t wait.

Well,

well, uh, the doctor said that the baby’s fine. That’s great. So what caused the cramps? Uh, something called round ligament pain. I, I don’t know, I, I’ve never heard of it before, but apparently it’s normal, so I, I just need to take it easy. Stay hydrated, and now I just, You like an idiot, Nicole, you’re not an idiot.

Oh God. God, of course you panicked. You’ve had a rough history with things like this in the past. Just I’m relieved that the baby’s okay.

You and me both. I’m sure you’re just gonna feel the same way when he gets back from wherever he’s

well. I’d be an idiot if I wasn’t a little worried about what made my do to us since she’s already done this, but I’m much more worried about what she might have already done to Stephan. Relax. I haven’t done anything to Stephan, thank God. But now that I have all my duckies in a row, He’ll be dead within the hour.

Please look at you would’ve been a crappy idea to skip our engagement party. Uh, you’re right. I mean, yeah. This is the best of both worlds. We get to sip on some champagne, those yummy puff pastries, hang out with, uh, all these people that we love, fawning all over us, pretending to like us, and then we get to go home and spend the rest of the night in bed together.

Oh, I love that last part. Me too. Definitely. Hello? Oh, hello Lee. I just, uh, ran into my sister and she said she’s on her way to your engagement party. I’d like to offer my congratulations. Thank you, Lee. That’s very kind of you. Well, I just want Gabby to be happy. I want the same for you, Lee. You all right?

Apart from the obvious weirdness seem a little edgy. Who, uh, me? No, not, not at all. I just hope that your evening is every bit as lovely as you deserve it to be.

I just heard Megan throwing a party tonight. How is that possible? You said she was taken care of. Now I’m not sure what’s going on, so I guess I’m going to my own eyes.

Hope you don’t get caught in a crossfire, Kate.

What do you mean? Stephan will be dead within the hour? Exactly what I said. I am throwing an engagement party for Stephan and Gabby tonight, and this is the exciting part. Dr. Rolfe has worked his magic on my man. Commander Harris. Michaels. Wait. Dr. Rolls is back. Oh, keep up. Ej. Yes, he’s back. And so tonight, commander Michaels Navy Seal and MAL trained assassin is gonna do the deed and kill Stephan in front of all of his friends and family gathered, except for you two Of course.

Oh, Kristen, you’re such a drama queen. No, of course not. I’m not gonna kill the two of you. I don’t think father would be very happy about that. Megan, listen. Listen, if you, if you let us go, we swear, sorry, that we will not implicate. You will say nothing about any of this, right? And your word is your bond, isn’t it?

What the hell is that? CRS 17. Ring any bells? Ralph tried to inject your son with it in Jakarta to raise his memory. Good boy, you do remember, but you won’t soon. Now, don’t worry. As soon as this drug takes full effect, I’ll be back for you. Okay? So listen. Let’s just try and make this as quick and easy as possible.

Okay.

I’m in the mansion. I walked right in through an unlocked door. Apparently Damira security is at Mar-a-Lago levels. Probably shouldn’t print that for the world to see. Dateline 6:00 PM I couldn’t overhear the conversation between Count Dracula and his creepy mother, but given how shocked Megan was when I came through at the tunnels the other day, I am certain they’re hiding something down there.

And I will bet whatever it is, will shed some light on how those two are conspiring to screw over. My best friend.

Hey. Hey, uncle Chad. Oh my God, thank God. Actually, would you, Mike? Yeah. Family member. I actually know. And Blake? Yeah. Back at you. Uh, do you guys know Wendy? Oh, we haven’t met yet, but I have heard a lot about you from trip. Oh. Oh, don’t worry. It’s all good. Um, in fact, what, um, he mentioned that you two might be dating, but nevermind obviously, um, given that you two are on a date right now, I shouldn’t have said No, no, no, no.

It’s okay. Uh, actually trip and I. We did have a date earlier today, so we’re, we’re calling, uh, just to be, we’re calling this a date, no? Yep. Uh, none of our business. Um, Wendy, Johnny, I hope you have a fun night. Yeah. Good evening everyone. Have you all met Gwen Rizek? Yeah, we’ve met. Not only is she my beautiful date for the evening, but I’m also hoping that tonight she might do me the honor of accepting my wedding proposal.

No, sorry, what? Did you guys know each other from Europe? No, actually we didn’t, Tim. Well, Yes, it is true Gwen and I just recently met, but, uh, we both agree that we share a very deep connection on, on many levels and hope that you all can be happy for us. I guess not. Mm-hmm. It’s all right, Dimitri. We don’t need anyone’s approval, do we?

Oh, good. Because, um, we’re not gonna get it from me.

Look, everyone, for people who hate us and each other there, you see, I told you we should have stayed home. Hmm.

Ah, command Michaels. You’re back, sir. What’s going on? You have a very important mission to carry out. Do you remember what.

Oh my goodness. I’m over here. Right here. Okay. Sit down. Thank you. Yeah. And comfy? Yes. All right. Um. I’m gonna get you some water or some, would you like some soup, baby? Don’t go

listen, I, I just wanna say I know it, it must have been difficult for you to be in the hospital with me and I just want you to know it means a lot. I’m just glad I could be there for you. Not as glad as I am.

Damn it should. I’m slipping away by now. My, my memories. I’m trying, but I can’t do it. I can’t hold me neither. Oh my God. How, how, how do we help Stephan now? Oh,

OMG guys. Wtf.

Oh. Cue face, Megan. Hello Kate. Lovely to see you. Do I smell fish? I can’t believe it. Sorry. I’d love to stay in chat, but I’m late for a very important date. Mission accomplished my ass.

How’s it going? It is, as I said, it would be. Commander Michaels is like a heat seeking missile singularly focused on destroying his target, but only the target. My sister at that party press assured my boy Michaels is programmed only to harm. Stephan

keep thinking though, won’t everyone suspect Megan immediately? I mean, she brainwashed Michaels before, so yes, I took care of that. I just hope you didn’t let him go before he was fully ready. Remember the disaster was Stephan. Rest assured my boy. My work may be experimental in nature, but the procedure is complete when you will be a happy beneficiary.

Yes, yes. Steph will be gone. Gabby will be mine again, and this time my hands will be completely clean. Hey, where is the host? I mean, people are starting to get a little restless honored. Guests welcome now. Please accept my apologies for the delay in order to make this a really special night tonight. I had to bring a bottle of my father’s very favorite champagne.

Just took me a little longer to get it than I expected, but I’m here now and I’m so glad that you are all here too, because there is nothing in this world more important than family is there. I am so grateful. But you have all welcomed me back into your bosom,

and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host this lovely gathering for my newfound brother and his gorgeous bride to be. And I just know that father is smiling down on us now. Happy to see us all together again. Whoa. At least most of us. Yeah, very few of us. And yes, I know that we have our differences, but we overcome them, don’t we?

That’s what families do. Well, normal families like yours. My sister Megan, she’s an assassin. Thomas Banks had to kill us, so all those things are a little bit hard to overcome. Mm-hmm. I am so sorry for all of the lost years that we could have spent together, but I look forward to the many, many happy years to come.

And now I want everyone to grab a glass of champagne so we can toast the happy couple, the lovely Gabriela and my charming brother Stephan. Oh my God. Paris Michaels. What the hell are you doing here?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Dad, I’m, I’m so sorry to hear about Abe. I know how much you, and you and Kayla loved him.

Yeah. I mean, he was pretty much family for most of the town.

Eric, what are you doing here? I wanted to come see you as soon as I heard about Abe. What about Abe?

You hardly touched your burger friend. That’s unusual for you. Yeah. That kind have a big lunch. Is it that, or is it because you had that run-in, in front of the pub, finding out that Gwen’s getting married? That was a bit of a shock. Do you wanna talk about it?

Do you are asking me to marry you officially? Okay. What the hell kind of proposal was that? What was wrong with it? For starters, I don’t see a ring, and I have a rule. If a man isn’t willing to go down on bended knee, he is not a man worth marrying. You know what stuck? You are absolutely right. Forgive me Gwen, let me do this the proper way.

Oh wow. That is a, that’s a large diamond. That is a very, very large diamond. Now allow me a second chance, Gwen Sek, who you do me the great honor of becoming my wife. The answer is a hard no.

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

God’s sake, mate. Okay? That thing is huge. The ring, I mean, but I’m sorry, Freo, you’ve wasted the money you worked so hard to inherit because there is no way Gwen is accepting your proposal. Damn it. Matt. How do you say? Hell no. And Almanian, you are aware that I’m proposing to Gwen and not you. So Gwen, what do you say?

Well, well, Gwenny, before you answer that, I have a question of my own that needs answering. Like what? Like what the hell is actually happening here?

When’s getting married to some eurotrash phony? What is it to talk about? Just like that my appetite came back. You know, you don’t have to pretend like you don’t care about her. Chloe, I only care about her because when we were together I ended up really hurting her. I feel good about that. In spite of everything she’s done, Gwen has been through a lot.

She deserves some happiness. And you don’t think the man she’s mirroring can give her that they’ve known each other for all of five seconds? I mean, how can it possibly work out? It’s all too fast. Did you tell Gwen that? I haven’t talked about it. She and I are hardly on good terms. I told him if you done anything to her, Gwen, you’ll answer to me.

So you’re still very protective of her. Gwen’s a grown woman. She can make her own decisions. I just, I don’t want her to make one that she’ll end up regretting for the rest of her life.

If you are here to try and convince me to change my plea, save your breath. I’m gonna take my chance at trial as your lawyer. I’m well aware of your position, so this is just a sisterly visit. Then I came to give you some news. Abe Carver is dead.

Abe is,

he’s dead. They haven’t recovered his body yet, but they have a witness who said he saw hate fall off the docks of the water. Okay. Well, he, he could have survived that, right? It’s very unlikely they said he could have already been injured. Raven and Eli said they found his blood and a hospital bracelet at the scene.

No way. Bye. I can’t, I can’t, I can’t believe this. I, I mean, I, I knew it was a possibility when he went missing, but, but still, I, I didn’t, I didn’t let myself think that I, I’m so sorry, Nicole. I just, I thought you knew.

He, you be, I, I, I, I mean, I, I can’t, I can’t believe this. To be true because he, he was the dearest est man. I He loved you so much. Yeah.

And having him in my life meant so much to me. I, I mean, having someone in, in, in my corner no matter what, and even when I felt all alone, I always, always had Abe.

And no matter how much I disappointed him through the years, he never judged me because you are like a daughtered him. Oh my god.

What am I gonna do without him?

Oh God.

So awful about Abe and the way that he died. Yeah. Such a tragedy. And I feel so bad for his family, my dad and Kayla,

I’m glad to be here with you.

I’m glad to. And thank you for a wonderful dinner. Oh no, this is just fish tacos. Uh, no, just fish tacos is something you get at your local fast food chain. Okay? What you put on this plate made me feel like I was sitting on a cliff overlooking a beach in Mexico. Well, no think you’re not. Maybe not a little thick, but I’ll take it.

Who knows? Maybe we’ll uh, go there together for real sometime. I’d like that. But for now, this, uh, this date was a pretty good placeholder

one. I was just wondering if, uh, to be wrong, to revisit that goodnight kiss. When they got interrupted, you mean when Johnny called to cancel our date? Yeah, that’s what I mean. So what do you think?

I think it would not be wrong at all.

So on a scale of one to 10, Sorry, what? On a scale of one to 10, how worried do I have to be about how protective you are of your ex? Wait, do you really want a number? Well, I’ve spent a good portion of my life in romantic relationships with men who are, um, unavailable or conflicted, or just a plain hot mess.

So I figure we should just get it all out onto the table. Chloe, you should not worry about me and Gwen. So is that a one? It’s a zero. Look, I admit I was thrown to find out that she’s getting married, but no, I’m totally over, Gwen. Okay, that’s, that’s good to hear. However, in the spirit of. Total honesty. I should admit that maybe Sarah will always be the one that got away,

and I will always think of him as a father no matter how long ago things ended with him and mom. Yeah, you too. And we’ll, we’ll video chat later. Okay. I love you too, Brandon.

You already knew about Abe. Theo told him, oh, I can’t imagine what he must be feeling right now. I should check on him. Yeah, I think you should be with your family. Just let me know if you need anything because you’ll be there for me. Thank you for checking on me. It means a lot. Actually it was Sloan’s idea Sloan.

She and I were together when I found out. I just, I mentioned how close you and Abe were and so said I needed to come see you right away. Oh, no, that was nice of her. Maybe she does have a heart, but you probably already knew that since you’re trying to have a baby with her.

No, that, that is the best news I’ve heard all day, Colin, a man is dead. And, and that’s, that’s tragic. I mean, I, I guess I, I didn’t have anything personal against Abe Carver. Uh, you bashed his skull and with a rolling pin in the wrong place, wrong time. And honestly, he was asking for it by marrying into the family that destroyed ours and continuing to support Chanel and their mother after we’d found out what they’d done.

So that makes you happy. I’m all for anything that causes Chanel, Dupree and Pauline and Price to suffer, and now they know what it feels like to lose someone you love. Dammit, Colin, I’m not gonna sit here while you dance on the man’s grave. I’m sorry. I forgot you had an epiphany and decided they’re always forgiven.

They’re on the path to righteousness. Oh goodness. And life

Sloan. Where, where did you go? What are you thinking about? No, I just said, um, I’m, uh, I’m not, All goodness and light at all. Actually, I’m a complete hypocrite.

You don’t have to answer him, Dimitri. Oh, no, no. It’s all right. You’re a friend. Well, he has doubts about my intentions, and I’m willing to address those doubts. Very unconvincingly, I’m sure. Oh, whether you’re convinced or not, Maddie. But, uh, today you don’t get to call me that. Only GW gets to call me. That fine Leo.

The truth of the matter is that I have fallen head over heels in love with this glorious woman, and I wanna marry her because she’s the most interesting and utterly captivating creature that I have ever met. And nothing will make me happier than knowing that she is mine forever and ever, and ever and always.

That’s you addressing my doubts. By laying on the schmalz with a trowel, how gullible do you think we are? Hey, what? What? Hey, look, as someone who knows a thing or two about laying on the schmalz and almost always has an ulterior motive, I could smell this man’s ulterior von Motive from a kilometer away.

Yes. Hello, mother. It’s your son, Dimitri, yet again. Yeah, I think it’s a little odd that for the last month you have done nothing but nonstop nag for me to bag a wife so that you get your hands on this funnel, your fortune, and you will not answer my calls or call me back to tell you exactly what it is that you want to hear.

I asked the risk check woman to marry me. She hasn’t accepted the proposal quite yet, but let’s just say I am very confident that you will. Leo, it is clear that you are a loyal and devoted friend of Gwen’s, and I’m sure it hasn’t been easy having to watch over the years as various men of questionable character have caused her pain.

Yep. Just like the man of questionable character standing right in front of me. But what you don’t realize is that you and I we’re not enemies. We are allies because we want the same exact thing. Oh, please. And that is to see. This rare and, and wondrous woman whom we both love, happy and safe. Now, there is nothing in this world that I want more than to marry you, Gwen.

But if you can’t find it within your heart to grant us your blessing, well then I will withdraw my proposal once.

I realize that you were just trying to get Matty to stop being an absolutely royal pain in the ass, but, um, I will have, you know that I do not need his or any man’s blessing to marry you. Now, yes, of course. I, I didn’t mean to offend you, but it’s just that I know how close you and Leo are, and I would hate to ever put you in the position of having to choose between me and your friend because you know damn well that she would choose me.

Nabi, please stop it, Leo. Now I know that this is all happening very fast. What is, you mean you suddenly getting physical with me and staring into my eyes? No, I mean, somebody falling in love with your BFF and proposing to her. Oh that. Mm-hmm. And if Gwen does decide to be my bride, do you think you could reserve judgment and allow me the opportunity of finally giving her the happiness that she’s earned?

So do you need a number for how worried you should be about me and Sarah? Huh? No. You’ve always been honest with me about her. Just like you’ve always been honest with me about your feelings for Brady. Which is why we’ve been taking it slow. And slow is good, right? Yeah, it is. Uh, it was, but uh, I wanna move on.

That’s fair. I mean, I know what’s going on between us. It’s brand new, but I, it just feels right. It does to me too. I’m so glad to hear you say that. Actually, I was just talking to Nicole about this, huh? Well, I bet she was thrilled. Oh yeah. Really thrilled. Yeah. No, not at all. But I did tell her that even though she’s one of my best friends, she is.

Not gonna talk me out of exploring things with you. So she agreed to back off? No, not at all. But we did talk. She asked me questions, she gave me her opinions. And um, you know, we talked about you like any other relationship, and I feel like that’s a semblance of acceptance. My resignation. What does she ask?

You know, the usual. Okay. Like one of the first things she asked was whether we had slept together. And what did you tell her? I was vague. I’m a lady. I do not kiss and tell. That’s good to know. Wait, does that mean that you’re not gonna tell her about this?

I’ll go get rid of.

So tell how are you a Hypocrites loan?

Come on. You know, you can tell me anything.

I did something that might really hurt Eric. Let me guess. You were screwing around. What’s, no. Why would you say that? Because I know you and I know you’re not exactly a one man kind of girl. Yeah, it was with Eric. It’s different. He’s, he’s just not like any of the other guys I’ve been with. So you finally found someone you’re serious about.

Yeah. I love him. And now you are worried that you’ve done something that’s gonna come between you. How bad boy is it? Oh, it doesn’t. It doesn’t matter. Simon, come on. Your boyfriend would be the first one to tell you that confession is good for this whole. So tell Brother Colin, how are you sinned against Eric?

Eric’s ex-wife? Nicole Walker is pregnant and the child could be his.

I know you think my relationship with Sloan is a bad idea. No, stop. Sorry. I am sorry, I, you don’t owe me an explanation. Well, it seems like you need one. Well, I,

I was just thrown off guard when Sloan blurted out that you two were trying to have a baby. Okay. Was, I mean, was she just trying to get a rise outta me? No, I think it’s more than that. I think she’s excited about the idea.

Okay, well, having a baby, was it saloon’s idea? We came to it together. Slung saw, she saw how disappointed I was when we found out the baby was DJ’s.

You were I, I mean, uh, I know that you’ve always wanted to be a father. I just wasn’t sure, especially since we both know how complicated this would’ve been, right? But I know somehow we would’ve made it work.

Have to admit a part of me was hope, hoping that baby was mine.

Oh, ah, are you all right?

Oh,

So, so you’re telling me that this Nicole woman is pregnant with your boyfriend’s baby and she doesn’t know that it’s his, I said it might be his, it could still be EJ Damir, right? Because neither of them were actually tested. I swabbed my own cheek and that’s what the lab got sent. Interesting. So the only thing that we do know is that.

You are not the father of this child. I’m glad you find this so amusing. Come what you want me to feel? Sorry for you? You got what you wanted then you, Eric, is free to be with you. Yeah, but I feel terrible about it. Not terrible enough to tell the truth. Look, when I found out that Nicole was pregnant, I started thinking about everyone I’ve lost.

Mom, dad, and now you. I’m right here. For how long, Colin? You’re going away to prison. We see. Anyway, the point is, is I was terrified of losing Eric to Nicole cuz if he finds out that she’s carrying his child, then missed, a good guy will go running him back to her. Eric’s always wanted to be a father and he and Nicole have like just decades of history, so it’s bad.

So what you were doing was leveling the playing field. You did what you had to do to hold onto someone you love. There’s no shame in that. Sloan. Oh, there’s shame and deception, Colin. Just let it go. Enjoy the victory after everything that we’ve lost. You deserve a win. Yeah, I suppose I do. Just trying to make up for what I did.

You mean for taking away a baby from Eric? That might be his. And how are you gonna make up for that? By giving him a baby that we know for sure is his.

Oh, yeah. Okay. It’s, it’s gone. Are you sure you’re okay? You know what, I don’t, I don’t know what the pain was, but it’s passed. Well, do you want to go get it checked out? Oh. No, it was probably the peanut butter and onion sandwich I had for lunch. And the butter and onion. Yeah, with a cinnamon raisin bagel.

Oh, that sounds delicious. I know. Gray beans. I would explain it. Yeah. Ow. I’m gonna go find ej. No, no, no. You’re not gonna find him. Why? Well, he’s hasn’t been here for a while. That’s why I was so upset when he came in earlier. Where is he? I dunno. He went away on a last minute business trip and I haven’t heard from him since.

He hasn’t called, well he sent the occasional text. Where is he? Did he say when he was coming back? No. What the hell is he up to? Is he bailing out on you in this pregnancy? You know what, I don’t. I don’t wanna talk about it. Okay. Oh God. I’m taking you to the hospital. Come on.

Oh,

so not so long ago you wanted my head on a spike. Now you want my blessing to marry Gwen. Not to mention you’re warming up my shoulders. I was rightfully upset with you for costing me that emerald. But things have changed now. Gwen is the only treasure that matters to me. Oh, well that is awfully sweet, isn’t it?

Leo, in a dime store Saccharin kind of way. Aaliyah, please can we put our differences behind us? You’re clearly very important to the woman that I love and therefore, Very important to me. Okay, fine. Fine. You said all the right things, albeit in a very insincere way. So it all rang hollow, but maybe that is me just being overly cynical and mistrustful because my parents treated me like crap.

Consequently, I have never felt respected. Love didn’t have serious self-esteem issues. Oh, for God’s sake. Dimitri’s not your shrink, Matty. Well, forgive me for being open, honest, and authentic. And if Gwen had, let me finish, what I was going to say was,

I will allow this marriage against my better judgment. Wow. Wow. How very generous of you. Indeed. Thank you very much for your grudging permission, Matty. And might I remind you both that I have not given Dimitri Nancy yet, and given that you two have now kissed and made up, you know what? Maybe you two should just ride off into the sunset together.

You know what? I’m pretty sure that we are the better couple now, Gwen, I love you. I love you so much, but you don’t have to answer me right now. Tonight my mother is throwing an engagement party for another happy couple. My Uncle Stephan and his Gabriela, and nothing would make me happier than having you there on my arm.

Who knows? Maybe the romantic occasion will inspire you to accept this ring.

Johnny, I I thought you were staying with Chanel. Yeah, yeah. No, uh, Paulina came home, so I, I left to give him some privacy. How are Chanel doing? Not great. It’s a terrible loss for, for all of them. For, yeah. I’m so sorry for what they’re going through. Me too. Uh, but look, I was, uh, I was hoping that maybe you and I could still go out, grab some dinner, maybe catch a late movie I already ate.

I made fish tacos. Yeah. Oh, oh, I’m, I’m sorry. Was I, uh, was I interrupting something? Actually, you were, when you called and canceled. I made plans with Trip. Well, I better just, uh, leave you to him then. Great, great. What, what is it? Dr. Sitz has the flu. I had to go cover her shift. Like I, I really don’t wanna leave.

I had a really great time tonight. Me too.

Maybe tomorrow we can pick up where we left off Maybe. Johnny,

good luck.

Well, uh, it seems like you’re available tonight after all. Look, I know trip made dinner, so, uh, What do you say about getting some dessert?

So,

uh, Still wanna take things slow. Well, like you said, this feels right. It does. But I can see where this is going and I just, I don’t wanna rush you. Sorry. Do you wanna wait? Not even a little bit.

Whoa. What are you doing? Oh, I’m sorry. Did you wanna take my shirt off? No, I just went, why here? Uh, do you want her first time to be on the couch? No, I don’t. So, uh, you bed online.

Yes. Yes. Does that mean No. No. Wait, now I’m lost. As am I? Yes. To the party pause on the marriage proposal. Fair enough. I’m sorry if that disappoints you. Knowing that we’ll be together this evening, how can I possibly be disappointed and who knows? Sometime soon we’ll be together. Every evening,

get a room. You two just left this one.

Oh, what’s going on there, buddy? Oh, what? We asked for three scoops. I know you ordered, uh, strawberry, which whatever. I ordered chocolate because I’m not a monster. And the cookies and cream in the middle, we’re supposed to be sharing. Okay. Mm-hmm. I admit the sharing gene doesn’t exactly run in my family, but I could learn, are you sacrificing your cherry?

Well, that’s not much. I like you. And for the record, this is my first bite of cookies and cream. I won’t go beyond my half. Oh, you better not. I’m watching you Damara. Right. I got your shit.

Uh, trip. Hey, hey, hey guys. What’s going on, Nicole? She needs to doctor right away. What’s wrong? Uh, uh, I’m two months pregnant and I, I have a siring pain right here. I have a history of miscarriages. And this is a high risk pregnancy. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Look, Let’s get you to an exam room. Uh, see what’s happening tomorrow this way.

Okay. We didn’t, we didn’t make it very far. I’m working on it far to either bedroom. Sorry. I’m. Kind of eager. Okay. E eager is good. So your room, I didn’t make my bed and my room is super messy. Okay, well then let’s go make a mess of mine.

What do you think? I think Count Chola doesn’t deserve you looking that hot tonight. Come on. I thought you were gonna give him a chance. I am. I will. I But Gwynnie, I’ve said it before. It bears repeating. I just want you to be happy. Thank you, Matt. But listen, if anything juicy happens at the party tonight, I promise I will.

Text Lady Whistleblower post taste. You better.

Oh, I hope this one works out for me, buddy, because usually when a guy seems too good to be true, he’s no good at he coming.

Well, well, well, if it isn’t my favorite young cousin, oh, well, I am flattered Wendy Shin. This is my cousin who I just found out I had Dimitri Vaughn Locher. Nice to meet you. My pleasure is all mine. Looks like you’ve made some damage out of that Sunday. We’re on a date hoping for a little alone time.

Johnny. What we’re family, right. We can be honest with each other. Of course. I was just stopping by to see if you were coming to the party and what, what party might that be? The engagement party that my mother is throwing for your Uncle Stephan and Gabby Hernandez. It’s just at the bistro. Oh, well that sounds great.

But our plans are, I love a party. Do you wanna go? Sure. I mean, it might be a little weird since I was almost Gabby’s sister-in-law. Oh. But, um, I really like her and I’m glad that she’s marrying the man she loves. Wonderful. Hmm. Well, I guess that settles it We’ll, uh, see you at the party.

So wait, you, you are trying to have a baby with Eric just to hold onto him. That seems a bit desperate. That is not what I am doing. Are you sure? I love Eric and I feel guilty about costing him the chance to be a dad even though you are not sure that Nicole’s baby is actually his right. I. No. I mean, odds are it’s e J’s baby.

I mean, those two are actually together, you know? And Eric and Nicole, they hooked up once when they were both highest kites. But anyway, the point is, is that Eric desperately wants to be a father and you wanna be a mother. Yeah. You and I are. All our family has left. Of course. I want our family to grow, and if Eric is the father, then my.

Son or my daughter, she has a real chance at being happy,

and I hope it happens. I hope you have Eric’s baby and. Nicole’s baby isn’t his. Either way, I’ve fixed it so that neither Nicole or Eric or anyone else will ever know

your vitals all look good. Uh, but we should get some blood work in the sonogram, see what’s going on with the pregnancy. I’m gonna step out and find the be on call. So sit tight. Okay? Okay, thanks. Hang in there. Thanks.

I think the trip assumes that I’m the, oh, it’s that it doesn’t matter, right? What matters is that I’m here for you. The baby.

Thank you Eric for being here. I, I don’t know what I would do if I was alone right now. You don’t need to worry about that.

Wow. Well, so much for taking it slow. I can honestly say no. I don’t have a single regret about anything, just.

Do you? Maybe we should do it again and find out.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey, I’m glad I caught you. It’s me. Perfect timing. I just got home from work. Nice. Um, well I was just wondering if you had any plans for tonight? Not so far. Why? I thought I’d take you to dinner. Dinner tonight.

Yeah. Hey. Oh, I’m so glad you’re home. I just got back from court where I gave an hour long summation and three inch heels. Maybe you should take them off. I can’t wait. But the worst part about the summation was that the whole time my mind kept wandering really,

I kept thinking about you really, really?

And you know what I was thinking when I was thinking about you? What’s that?

How I can’t wait to make you a father.

Hi, Pedro. It’s, it’s me again. I, I was just wondering if he just checked in and told you when he might be back. Okay. Thank you. Knock, knock. Hey. Oh, Harold, let me, Chloe, this is such a nice surprise. It was good to see you. You too. I know that you had that appointment with a specialist yesterday. I wanted to know how it went.

Um, pretty well. I mean that the doctor thinks that I can carry this baby to term. That’s great news. Yeah. Nicole, I’m sure you and EJ are just thrilled. Well, I am, uh, I don’t know about ej. What’s that supposed to mean? I, I don’t know. I, I, I haven’t talked to him for days. It’s like he’s fallen off the face of the earth.

Yes. Hello mother. It’s your son, Dimitri, yet again? Yeah, I think it’s a little odd that for the last month you have done nothing but nonstop nag for me to bag a wife so that you get your hands on this funnel, your fortune, and you will not answer my calls or call me back to tell you exactly what it is that you want to hear.

I asked the risk check woman to marry me. She hasn’t accepted the proposal quite yet, but let’s just say I am very confident that she will.

Where’d you get those? The front desk. Apparently they were sent to our room. Now let’s find out which of my many suitors is trying to rekindle my flame. Oh, they’re for you. For me. From who? From whom? Kale Surprise or from Dimitri. Hoping these will inspire you to contemplate my proposal. Anxiously awaiting your answer, Dimitri Ha.

Fat chance dude, like you would consider marrying that guy. Actually, I am considering it.

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

So mother, if you give a damn at all about your son’s future, please give him a call back. Hey, uh, wait a minute. Are you Dimitri Von Weisner? I am. And you are Son Cook. Okay. I’ve never heard of you. I co-own the Spectator with Gwen Risk check. Couldn’t help but overhear your phone call just then. So you listened in on a private call.

Well, I listened in when I heard you say the word, a risk check, unusual name caught my attention. It was still a private call. Well, I only caught the tail end. You know the part where you said that you asked her to marry you.

You’re seriously considering marrying that tectonic twat. You don’t even know him. Well, I know him well enough in the biblical sense. You slept with him once and now you’re thinking of tying the knot. What does he have a magic penis? Well, it didn’t pull a rabbit out of a hand. Okay, then if he isn’t David Copperfield of the bedroom, why would you even think about marrying this guy?

Yeah, I’d love to have dinner with you. But I do need some time to get ready. Okay. Well, what do you say? I pick you up in one hour. Perfect. See you then.

Hey, Chanel, what’s the matter? It’s, it’s, Is he still missing? No, he’s, he’s dead.

You asked Gwen to marry you. You, you barely know her. She only interviewed you once. Oh, well it was an in-depth interview. You called her that risk check woman. Yes. If I’d called her my darling dearest Gwen, my mother would’ve no idea who I was talking about. Ah, and you seem to be more interested in my affairs to call than my own mother.

No contrary more to me. I don’t give a damn about you all your affairs. It’s Gwen. I’m worried about, obviously, and my question to you is, Mr. Cook, why do you care who Gwen marries?

I don’t understand why it’s considered to be so crazy to want to marry an attractive man. He finds me interesting and he, he wants to spend time with me. I’m an attractive man. I find you interesting. I wanna spend time with you, but I don’t think you should marry me. Yes, Matty. Dimitri and I don’t sit around gossiping about fashion and Harry styles tattoos, and how long have I been saying I need to just get over Sandra and finally move on with my life?

Well, it’s one thing to sleep with someone on the rebound, even to have a rebound thing, but you can’t have a rebound marriage. This is not a rebound. And the reason why I took so long to get over Xander is because I’ve just been waiting for the right man to just come along. And you think Hare Dimitri, who you’ve known for a nanosecond, is the right guy?

He might be. He, I mean, he takes all the boxes off, doesn’t he? He’s tall, he’s rich. He’s, he’s really handsome and he’s so romantic. I. He’s so romantic and after all, my beyond dysfunctional relationships, I have to say, it’s really nice to be the one being pursued like Katniss in the Hunger Games. I haven’t seen that, so I don’t understand the joke and I don’t plan to anyway.

God bloody hell, Matty look after the way I grew up and you know that. That’s why I’ve always thought that there was something wrong with me, and Dimitri understands that. Because he lived that as well and he sees me for me, who I am and he still wants me anyway. Look, Gwenie, I get wanting to have that kind of connection with someone, but I also get all too well how painful it is when you find out it was all just an occlusion.

What’s he saying? What I’ve been saying all along Gwen. This guy, he, he’s playing you. Why can’t you see that?

So EJ disappeared on this mysterious business trip and you haven’t heard from him since? Well, I’m, he texted me a few times saying that the trip went longer than he expected. That’s it. Well, when I asked, he said that he couldn’t go into detail. I mean, I, I. I get it. You know, Demira business is confidential.

Nicole, you are having that man’s baby. He doesn’t have to share his business affairs, but he does need to call you to see how you’re feeling, how you’re doing. I agree. I do. It is just that something’s off Chloe. I mean, he was so excited to have this baby and he was concerned about me and, and he’s the one who pushed me to go see the specialist, you know?

And now not only could he not be bothered to go to the appointment and he didn’t even bother to call to see how it went. Oh honey, I’m sorry. I just. I wanted a better father for my baby.

So you think we made a baby? Well, if we didn’t, it wasn’t due to lack of effort, we can always try again. You know, double our odds. Hmm.

You really want this, don’t you?

Sorry, Eric, I just can’t risk losing you to Nicole if this baby ends up being yours. That test has to come back negative.

Oh, I just, I know how bad you want this and how important it’s to you. Listen, having a baby, I mean, raising a child, it’s, it’s a big commitment. It’s a lifetime. I hope you’re doing this not just for me. No, I’m not. I

I want this for myself too. I want this for both of us.

Trip. I didn’t hear you come in. Oh, you were on the phone. I didn’t wanna interrupt you. So was that Johnny? Yeah. Sounded like you two were making a date. He asked me out to dinner tonight. Damn. Yeah, he beat me to the punch. You know I was gonna offer to make you dinner when you got home, but, uh, So I get for showering first.

Mm, sorry. So when are you expecting him? He’s picking me up in an hour. Okay. Then that gives us plenty of time for what hour date?

My God. What, what happened? I, I called Eli to see if there was any updates and he told me that, well, that they found blood on the docks and Abe’s hospital bracelet and that, and now he’s on his way to go. Tell Lonnie. Did they, did they find a body? No, but there was a witness who saw him go into the water and he never came back out.

And they, they haven’t found him, but they, they. They, they think you drown.

I just can’t believe it. It just, it doesn’t seem real. Abe was, uh, he was a great guy. He didn’t deserve this

well. Um, I should go. Um, Eli said that Jada and Ray were on their way to tell Mama, and so I, I, I have to be there so that she’s not alone. You sure you’re okay to drive? I have to be, I, I have to be there for my mom. She needs you in one piece. Come on. Lemme take you

Eric. I meant what I said before. Both my parents are dead Collins in jail probably for a very long time. I mean, the odds of him having kids are pretty slim. I’ve got no cousins. I’ve. I know uncles or aunts when she’s, I really have no extended family, so if I wanna be surrounded by family, I have to create that for myself.

I’m a big family and they drive me crazy, and I can’t imagine life without them. I envy that my family. You know, which is pretty obvious was messed up. But raising a baby with you would gimme a chance to kinda move past all of that, you know, make up for the mistakes that my family and die made.

It’s, I just feel like it would be, Chance at redemption. Yeah. That, in other words, I mean, if I, if I can be a good mom, maybe I can be a good person.

You know what may, maybe I, I’m being too hard on ej too hard. You literally just said it was his idea for you to see that specialist and then when the appointment comes, he just flakes. Well, I, I mean, he had a good reason I. A business trip. Look, it’s, it’s the company. It’s, it’s the de mere legacy. It means a lot to him.

And it’s not like I didn’t know exactly who he was when we got back together. I mean, I was married to the man twice, so. You’ve accepted him. Flaws and all

I have. Okay. And I think that you should accept the fact that I have done the same with Sander.

I care who grand marries because we used to be involved. In fact, we were nearly married newly. It didn’t work out, obviously. Obviously. Yes. Your law seems to be my gain. Sander. Xander. Yes. Xander. That does ring a bell. And yet you said you never heard of me. Well, it didn’t register at first, but now it does.

Yes. Gwen told me all about your history. She told me all about how you hurt her and now how she’s doing everything in her power to move on from you.

You think Dimitri’s playing me. For God’s sakes, Quinnie, I’ve been saying that all along. Why is my thinking that this guy is a devious dirt bag news to you? Why is my thinking that his wanting to marry you is not coming from a pure place and that schmuck’s heart surprising to you? Okay. Okay. It’s not a surprise to me.

I know that you have not trusted Dmitri from the start, but what you are not seeing here is that the relationship has changed. Oh, I’m seeing it. It’s gone from casual and terrible to serious and alarming. Will you just listen to me please? Me writing a favorable article about Dimitri is one thing, but him marrying me, I mean, how is that gonna earn him Any respect?

I’m an ex-con for God’s sake. I’ve screwed over half of the people that I know. Not to mention the fact that I don’t have a bloody dollar to my name. So what on earth do I have to offer him? How does he benefit from making me his wife? Can we have a date? I mean, you said Johnny’s not picking you up for an hour, right?

Right. But. I need time to get ready. It takes you a whole hour to get ready. Uh, no, but even if I hurry, it’s won’t be long before Johnny gets here. Okay. Then it’ll have to be a quick date. Come on. I don’t know. What do you say? We mean back here in 15 minutes for a 45 minute date. I bet you I can show you a better time in 45 minutes than Johnny could over a three course meal.

Okay. You’re alone. I’ll see you in 15 minutes.

What does me dating EJ have to do with you dating Xander? Well, if you know, if you’re okay with all the things that ejs done, Do you think that you should lighten up on Xander? You were kind of hard on him the other day with good reason. For God’s sake, Chloe, he kidnapped me and Holly and, and Bonnie and Susan, and he left you with a murderous drug, Lord, in Mexico I know.

And EJ kidnapped Sidney. Remember that? Look, we could spend the rest of this night cataloging all of ejs and Sanders crimes and. Trying to figure out who’s more appalling or whatever. But for the sake of our friendship, please, I think we should stay off of that topic. I, I think we should refrain from commenting on each other’s person of interest.

So you’re telling me that Xandr is likely to remain your person of interest. Possibly. So how serious is it? You don’t wanna know if it’s serious. You wanna know if I’ve slept in it well, have you? Not yet. Ah, I bet you’re going to.

Gwen and I had a complicated relationship. Complicated by the fact that she lied, cheated and fed my fiance psychosis, inducing drugs to sent her to a mental institution. Huh. So you were in a relationship with Gwen and had a fiance. It was a very complicated relationship. Yes. And it’s over now, and the fact that you still work with Gwen doesn’t change the fact that you have no right.

To anything in her personal life. That’s not your call. Well, let me put it this way for you, Xander. I don’t like it when people comment, let alone interfere. In my personal life, these people, they usually regret it. I make sure of that. Well, that’s wonderful. We have something in common cuz if someone hurts someone that I care about, then I do still care about Gwen.

They also end up regretting it, and I also make sure of it.

Look, I don’t know what Dimitri wants, but he sure as hell must, wants something. Wow. You really know how to flatter a girl, don’t you look gwenie. It’s not your self-esteem I’m worried about. It’s your happiness. I am trying to protect you from being a jilted bride. Again. That’s it. Darius. I married Darius because he needed a green card.

Maybe that’s what Dimitri needs since he’s from Transylvania or whatever. He’s not from bloody Transylvania. And where is he from? Last chance Iowa cut and shoot Texas. By the way, those are names of actual places I Googled. Weirdest American city names, committed them to memory to use for an occasion just like this.

Wow. How very, very clever of you. And now back to the point, it doesn’t matter where Dimitri’s from because he’s in this country legally, how legally, and even so maybe his visa’s about to expire or maybe just maybe he actually loves me and he does wanna spend the rest of his life with me. Did you ever think of that?

What are you thinking? Mm. I’m thinking I’m starving. Me too. You want to go down and get some dinner in the pub? Sure. But first, why don’t you call your mother? My mother? Why? Well, remember I told you a few weeks back. That I’d suggested the four of us having dinner. Yeah. You can invite her and John and we can tell them the good news that we’re trying to have a baby.

No, not on the first dinner. Maybe we should just kind of ease them into this. Okay. You’re right. You know what? I will call my mom and ask her if she and John are available for dinner tonight. How’s that? Mm-hmm.

Hey, mom, the reason why I’m calling is because Sloan and I wanted to know if you and John will join us for dinner tonight. What? What happened? What happened with Abe? Mama? Mama, you home?

I don’t think she’s here. Yeah, well, Eli told me that, that Jada and Ray were coming by. So what if she doesn’t know what happened to Abe

Jada? Hi. Um, yeah, yeah. Eli told me about Abe. Um, but I, I just got home and my mom’s not here. You did? Okay. Um, thanks for letting me know. It’s, it’s okay. Johnny’s here. Okay, thanks.

They, uh, they talked to your mom when they told her. She insisted on going down to the dock, so, They’re there with her now. Okay. Uh, you, you, you want me to drive you over there? Jada said that as best if I just stay here. That way when Mama comes home, she isn’t alone. But you, you don’t have to stay though.

I, I’m sure you probably already have planned, so it’s really okay. No, it’s not. I’m gonna stay here until your mom gets back.

Trip.

You look very lovely. Thanks. Ready for our date.

Okay. This one. Ah, okay. Okay.

What? Yeah, how did you do that? Carefully. Okay.

Which one? No. Oh yeah. What? Ret. Nice and quick.

Okay. Yeah, I saw that one coming. I usually don’t lose at this game. Oh really? Yeah.

Of course it is possible that Dimitri loves you. You are eminently lovable. It’s just not likely. Because you are eminently cynical. I am protective of my best friend is what I am. And look, don’t shoot the messenger. I’m just saying as someone who knows a thing or two about cons, I can spot one a mile away and gwenny this dude is up to something.

I will bet you my favorite Rainbow Chino shorts.

Is that a threat? It’s more like a promise. What are you gonna do? You’re gonna run a nasty article about me. Oh, that’s right. You haven’t been in town long enough to know about my past careers, have you? Well, I’ve had a few past careers myself. Great. I hope that experience serves you well, cuz if you do anything to hook win, spectator’s gonna be the least of your worries.

Look, I don’t know what’s gonna happen between Xander and me. We haven’t been together that long, obviously, and that would be a big step. And you mean sharing a bed with the man you already share an apartment with? Uh, okay. All right. Whatever you and Sander do is your business. Okay. Thank you for acknowledging that.

Mm-hmm. And speaking of, I have to go Sander’s picking up some dinner from the P, but I love you. And I hope that EJ comes home soon. Yeah, me too. Been a little lonely lately. Well, aside from whoever is hanging out in here, well, I’m always here for you all. I know. Thank you. Love you too. Yeah, yeah. Thanks for letting me know.

I’m sorry too.

Bye. Geez. What happened? Someone saw Abe Carver fall off the docks this afternoon. They’re sending divers in. They presume Dead. Dead. Oh my God. I’m so sorry. Has he just been wandering around this whole time? I’m not sure why. Oh. Cause I was thinking about what this means for my brother. I mean, when Abe went missing the, the first thing I thought of was, you know, Dick Collin killed him.

But if this all happened this afternoon, I mean, well, Collin’s in jail, this could be really good news for him. I’m so sorry, Eric. I was so insensitive. I know what Abe meant to you and your family and, and Colin caused them so much pain. I’m sorry. Yeah, I need to, but listen, I understand you love your brother.

Oh, no. What Nicole? He was like a father to her. She’s just, I know. I, I had no idea. She’s gonna take the snooze really hard when she finds out. I mean, she go see her. You want me to go see Nicole, Eric? She’s gonna need a friend right now. That’s very kind of you. And as you know, as a lawyer, you probably shouldn’t let that get around, but you’re a good purse.

No, you did it. I mean, you packed a whole date into 45 minutes. Well, I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you know the date’s not over yet. No, no, no. You can’t leave out the kiss. Goodnight

Johnny.

Hey, Johnny, are you on your way? Um, no, actually, uh, I, I ran into Chanel and she just found out that Abe is dead. What? Oh my God. Yeah. Um, I mean, you know, I saw her, she, she was so upset. I, I didn’t want her to drive. So I’m here at her mom’s apartment now. Um, she’s with the police, her, her mom. I mean, um, look, I, I don’t think I can leave Chanel alone.

No, no, of course not. And I don’t know when Pauline’s gonna be back, so I’m not really sure when I can get over there. Okay, Johnny, don’t worry about it. I’ll do it some other night. No, no. I’ll be there. No, look, I can’t imagine how Chanel must be feeling right now. You have to stay with her and you can’t just run out when her mom gets there.

You’re right, you’re right. I, uh, I can’t, um, I’m really sorry. Don’t be, I’m just really glad that you were there when she needed to. Thanks for being so understanding. I’ll, uh, I’ll call you later.

Was that Wendy? Yeah. Yeah, it was. Did you two have plans for the night?

I, I can’t believe it. A, was one of my dad’s best friends. Seemed like a lot of people left him, especially Chanel. I mean, she lost her own dad a while ago and he was the only father she had left.

Johnny, it’s so good of you to be here with me, but honestly, you don’t have to stay. Look, don’t worry about me. Okay. Look, I am happy to stay for as long as you need me. Sure. I’m sure there’s no way I’m leaving you.

Oh, hey, I, uh, got the spicy chicken sandwich extra pickles. Oh, thank you. Did you remember the hot sauce? Of course, yes. Is everything okay? Yeah, yeah, sure. You seem a little distracted. Yeah, I guess I have, I kind of a weird runin outside the pub. Really? Yeah, I was one. Dimitri v Ner. Looks like he and Gwenna getting married.

Did it ever occur to you to just. Keep your doubts to yourself and just wish me the best. I don’t keep my doubts to myself because I wish you the best, and marrying that card. Carrying conman would be a train wreck, a plane crash, a tsunami, followed by a winter ice storm, followed by a catastrophic typhoon.

Hi. Hi. Hi. I hope you don’t mind me stopping by. No, not at all. Oh, I see you got my flowers. Yes. Um, did. Um, they’re so lovely. Although next time you might wanna spring for a larger arrangement. Leo, weren’t you just leaving? No, I wasn’t.

Oh, he doesn’t bother me. One learns to simply ignore Ladies in waiting. Ignore me at your own peril. Von Leischner, by the way, I Googled that name. It’s derived from the German word fleisch, meaning meat, and the suffix’s man, meaning man. Thus, the word means butcher synonymous with terminator, slaughterer slayer.

Take your pick. What brings you by Dmitri? I was just in the neighborhood and I was wondering now that you’ve had a bit of time to, uh, think about it, would you do me the great honor of becoming my wife?

Oh, here’s to hoping you’re in there, baby. So I don’t have to feel so guilty about what I did to Eric’s paternity test. Uh, then again, maybe there’s no reason to feel guilty. Maybe EJ really is the father of Nicole’s baby. After all. Ej, I know you’re busy, but if you could let me know

if you, if you have. And the idea when you’ll be back,

dammit. Damn it. Dammit. The father of my baby does not walk through that door. In the next five minutes, I am gonna scream.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hello boys. I’m back. How long is it gonna take you to get this place up and running after you provide the supplies? I’ll need no time at all if I don’t have to improvise with kitchen appliances this time. You’ll have top shelf equipment. I assure you there is one vital component of my project that’s missing.

It’s a subject you want me to work on? Patience, doctor, our friend, the Navy Seal will arrive very soon.

What do you want me to do? Cry. Plead for my life.

Truth is I’ve been expecting you, Michaels,

you specialize in gunning down the defense list. Just ask those people that you sent to a watery grave in the aja. So what are you waiting for? An engraved invitation.

Sorry I didn’t call first. Oh, Phil honey. That’s okay. You know, I’m always glad to see you. Do you have news? I do. I was just at the police station when a call came in. After that, Eli called Rafe and took off in a hurry. Oh, what was it called about? I’m thinking it was a lead. Something that’s gonna tie that nurse to what happened to my dad.

I don’t see anything. Yeah. Well, we gotta know for sure right now what we have is this guy’s word.

Charlie. I know that the visit with Theo was a little stressful, so why don’t we just sit and watch a little bit of body and soul. All right. But you’re gonna have to tell me who’s lying to who because it’s. It’s hard for me to keep up.

Okay. You know what to do when you get down to the dock, right? I should. I’ve gone over it like 50 times. Aleena. Aleena. Oh, uh, what? You didn’t hear me just now. You looked like you were a million miles away.

Did you get a good look at him before he went in the water? I, I, it all happened so fast. All right. Well do best to describe him, uh, my height, but older. Yeah, that could be a lot of guys. Like I said, it was fast. Yeah. Okay. Look, This is the guy that we’re looking for.

Gabe Carver.

Yeah, that was him.

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

Just calm down, Megan. Nobody’s getting shot.

The only time I ever pulled the trigger on somebody, unarm is when you were messing with my head and I have to tell myself every single day that it wasn’t me, that it was you. And now your days of making people do whatever you want are over. You’re going somewhere. Somewhere. You’ll discover new levels of misery every.

Single day, I’m a guess Disney World. Joe, call you one. You won’t be laughing when you get there. May I know why you’re doing this. To stop the insanity to stop you from doing whatever you’re planning to bow or hope or Kate. Funny you should mention Kate, tell me what’s her role in this cute little stunt of yours.

So you and rave. Thanks for this. Okay. I am not gonna pressure you into sharing more than you’re comfortable with, but I saw your face when I guess that you and Rave were upstairs together, right? A few hours earlier where you were over there at that very table and you were sharing how you felt about him.

So, uh, Well, I also told you that there are certain rules in play to stop me from acting on those feelings. Mm-hmm. Well, rules are made to be broken, especially silly ones. Come on chair. You just don’t give up, do you? Never. All right. All right. Okay. So Ray came over to give me some really good news about my sister, which was a huge relief, obviously.

And you know, one thing led to another. And that’s all I’m gonna say. Well, I am very happy for both of you. I really am. Thank you. He’s a great guy and you are a great catch and I, I really hope it works out for you. Thank you. So where is he now? Oh, he had to go. He, yeah. Well, one of us needs to be out looking for him.

Trying to figure out what happened to him.

I’m not sure about this guy. He was a little nervous to me. Yeah. Well, why wouldn’t he be? I mean, seeing somebody fall into the river and then just disappear. Yeah. Well, I still want to dive team in forensics all over this. Look man, you make the call. I’m going in. What? No, you’re not going in Not without scuba equipment and dive team.

You’re not. This is Abe. I need to see for myself. E Eli, Eli.

I was just thinking how happy I am that your test results were so good. You know, you’re not only on the road to recovery, you are in the express lane. Oh look, the commercial’s almost over. You know, I, I don’t wanna watch that show. You don’t. No. You know, it’s such a, a beautiful day outside. When do we get outta here?

Let’s go to the park.

You. You wanna go out? Yeah. Why not? It’s a nice warm day. Oh, it’s not just warm, it’s actually hot. You just got outta the hospital. You’re nowhere near ready for that kind of exertion. Oh, come on now. You can drive us to the park and we’ll sit on the bench. Listen to the birds. I, I know I’m up to that. You were just telling me how, how, how great my, my test results were.

I know what I said, but No, no, no, no, no. No box. No box. Come on. He’ll me get dressed and then we’ll go out and see what I’ve been missing. Oh, so you think maybe it was someone who recognized your dad and Ray and Eli, they’re on their way of finding him and bringing him back maybe so. Oh, oh, wouldn’t that, wouldn’t that be Oh, Uhuh uh, no.

No. No, no, I’m not going there. Not yet. Uhuh. I’m not getting my hopes up. Just, just have ’em dashed again. No, I have done that this too many times already. Uh uh, uh, uh uh. I’m not going there. I’m not going there for yo No, don’t. More wishful thinking. Oh, no, I can’t do it. I can’t handle it. I can’t handle it.

I can’t handle it. Theo, come inside. Oh, I got you. It’s okay.

I can see how this is affecting you, and it’s not my place to tell you how to deal with it, but I can tell you what’s been working for me and what is that? I know what you mean about not getting your hopes up, but hope is all we have right now. And until somebody I trust tells me that I’m never gonna see my dad again.

I’m gonna believe that they’ll find him. My dad and I, we’ve been through bad things before. A couple years ago I got shot and I went into a coma. Nobody knew if I was gonna regain consciousness. Sweetheart, what? Kate told me that my dad never stopped believing that I was gonna come out of it.

Maybe I felt that maybe that’s why I pulled through, and maybe that’s exactly what Dad needs from us right now is to never lose hope.

I couldn’t say anything. The current could have carried him downstream. Yeah. Okay. If it was him. How about we wait for the divers? Divers next time? Okay. A man like Abe just doesn’t randomly hit his head and then just disappear, man. What the hell was he doing down here? All alone? Or how’d he get away from wherever it was that grabbed him?

Are you sure that the man you saw go in the water? Is the man in the picture? Uh, yeah. I, I guess maybe. What do you mean you guess? Listen to me. Abe is my wife’s father. All righty, Eila. He’s eila. Hey. Hey. Okay. Chill off. I’m, I’m sure, uh, as soon as I saw the picture, I, I knew. Okay. Hey, listen, we got all your information.

You don’t have to stick around. So don’t leave town. Okay. We’re gonna wanna speak to you again,

vla. All we have is that dude’s word. Okay. And the blood stain. Napes Hospital brace stain Forensics hasn’t even typed the blood yet. So we’ll follow up on evidence because that’s what we do, but we can’t get ourselves. We both know how this ends.

Okay? I’m outta here. You’re gonna expect a delivery soon. All you have to do is sign for it. I’m impressed with your preparation. But that doesn’t change the fact that twice you have promised to have Commander Michaels ready to do what must be done, and twice you have failed to produce him. I would hate to find that I’ve risk coming back here for nothing.

Your joy ride on Princess Gina Summer and wasn’t wasted. Doctor. This is being handled by Megan Damara herself. Did I say more?

You forget about Kate. I’m doing this alone. I wanna be the one to make sure you get what you deserve. I’m, I’m feeling properly threatened, I assure you, but I can’t help wondering. Why are you doing this now? What nudged you into it? And when I asked myself that question, I remember just how ruthless your friend Kate Roberts Brady has always been.

So let me guess. Kate wants me dead, but you held out for delivering me to my own private Siberia. Am I close? This conversation’s a waste of time and your boat is waiting. Well, you see, you should have listened to Kate. Your problem that you’re too much of a Boy Scout. You are only effective when I was giving you your marching orders,

Kate isn’t here Commander. It’s just you and me and Mr. Baretta in your right hand.

So I’m wondering what you would do if I were to suddenly turn and run for my life? Do you really have it in here to shoot me in the back?

I’m not gonna shoot you cause you’re not going anywhere except where I take you.

How you gonna spend all that time? All alone in the middle of nowhere.

Gosh, maybe you can take my mind off April while, why don’t you tell me about you and Raf. Well, I mean, there’s not much to tell. It’s still very new, obviously. Yeah, but you’re, you’re happy it happened, right? Do you have regrets, right? Oh, nope. None. We definitely wanna be together, but we have to keep it between us, you know, behind closed doors.

Well, I’m sure you’ll be able to manage that. Now comes the time when you should. Thank me for giving you such good advice. Thank you Kate. Your advice really was helpful and, and you know, I’m grateful to Eli too because he had a talk with Rave, apparently he picked up on the energy between us and he gave him some similar advice.

Oh, I gotta go, Ralph needs me down at the docks. Do you think that’s about it? He didn’t give me any details. Listen, Kate, you can’t tell anyone about rape and I, okay? My life is not an open book either, and believe me, I know how crucial it is to have someone you can trust, especially with your secret self.

It’s time to go. Don’t I get a teary goodbye with my old friend, Kate. Oh,

what? What is it? Just something they shoot at charging rhinos.

Oh darling, I know how impatient you are to feel better and those test results are great. Step in the right direction, but look at you. You can barely walk. Darling. You know you brought me home in the wheelchair, so why don’t we, why don’t we take that with us, then the exertion will be all yours. May I remind you that a man tried to kill you and unfortunately he is still out there on the loose.

I would feel so guilty if I put you in danger for even one moment. Spra day we’ll be in a public park. I, I am not going to live in fear. I’m not gonna be a prisoner in my own home. Oh, let me get the door darling.

Oh, Theo, I am so very happy to see you. Perhaps you can convince your father that it’s not time for him to go out yet. Actually, I think that’s a great idea. Come on, puffs. Let’s get you dressed.

Oh, I’m sorry if it sounded like I was preaching at you. You, you didn’t preach. You opened my eyes. I’ve been thinking about myself worrying if I could handle the stress and it’s Abe who suffering the most away from his loved ones. God know where likely scared out of his mind.

I’m gonna have to keep myself strong for him until he gets home. We both will. Okay. So now tell me more about this call that Eli and RAF got got.

Hi, is this Hi Dave? Yeah. Uh, 9 1 1. Caller said he saw guy who was wobbly put this pile on and then toppled into the water. There was blood stain on it and uh, we found Abe’s Hospital ID bracelet. Did you interview the witness? Yeah, I showed him a picture, said it was the eye he saw. Oh my God. So there’s still a chance that it might not be.

No, I hope so. Yeah. I’m not gonna tell Pauline about any of this. It’s all based on circumstantial evidence in one guy’s statement, if there’s a body in there, the divers will find it. One, the texts gave me a blood sample from the pylon. They want to do a DNA match with apes. They volunteered to be a bone marrow donor, so they probably still have his sample at the hospital.

I’m gonna take it over there right now. Okay. I’ll let ’em know you’re coming and it’s priority one.

It’s Paulino.

I gotta, let’s go to voicemail. I can’t let her know what’s going on. Not yet. I can’t. You did the right thing. She’ll only hear what you know now in panic. Yeah. When did the call come in? I hope it wasn’t when you and I were together. Well, I know what you’re thinking. Just stop. I get in here a little bit sooner, I wouldn’t to change anything.

We’re here now and we’ve got a job to do much as we’re dreading what we might find.

I’m sorry to be bothering you again, Rafe, but as soon as Theo told me you have a had a lead. I, I had to call. Uh, so, uh, please call me back if something happens. Even if it doesn’t seem so important, and just so you know, I am filled with hope that you are on the verge of him finding my Abraham and bringing him home to me where he belongs.

That I do. That was great.

A won’t be long. It’s just peeking out a shirt to wear. What the hell’s the matter with you? Didn’t you hear me tell you to back me up? Oh, I heard you loud and clear. Then why did you shoot off your big mouth? I’m trying to make people think that he’s dead. Don’t you forget that’s why I hired you. I did everything like you said, and so far it’s going exactly the way you wanted to.

Okay? The cops think that Abe fell off that pier and drowned, and they’re using the evidence that I planted to prove it. Wait a minute, what do you mean? So far, when I left, they were calling in divers and crime scene investigators and pouring everything they had into it. And you know what? When I signed onto this thing, uh, I thought I was taking on an acting job to help a sick man, but somehow it morphed into this whole.

Weird nightmare where I faked someone’s death and it just so happens to be the mayor of the damn town. And I’m the one on the line with the cops. And you know what I think that costs for? I think it costs for a raise a big one. I am just a nurse. I’ve already paid you everything I’ve got. Well, you better figure something out then, because if I don’t get the money that I want and I’m going straight to the police station, then I’m blowing your whole little world to Smith Rains.

It seems like you should have shuffled me off while you had the chance. This change is nothing

you keep telling yourself that. I suppose you are wondering how this happened, but don’t waste your waning energy trying to figure it out.

You had this little thing planted on my car, thought you had me right where you wanted me. The truth is, I had you the whole time.

They’re not gonna get away with this.

You didn’t put enough in you, al. He nearly killed me.

Come on. Michael says, you have had an update by now. It’s taking you so long.

What took you so long? He was just about to march me outta here at gunpoint. I had to get a roll, settled and answer questions. Doesn’t seem he has a lot of confidence in our ability to provide the subject. Oh, note to self. Next time hire a mad scientist who keeps his mouth shut.

Check his pockets.

Damn thing’s locked. Must have a special coat on it. What about facial recognition? His eyes are closed. Well then open his eyes.

Wow. Disable that feature for you. Next time you wanna use his phone, he’s not gonna be available. Right? It’s Kate seems she wants an update. I knew she was in on it. Well, forget about her for now. We’ve got work to do. Let’s get him outta here.

So you’re not just an actor, you’re a blackmailer now. I guess that makes me a double threat. I better go check on the ape. Oh. Oh. How’s your grandmother doing Better? Mm. Yeah. I’m so glad that I was able to get her the medication that she couldn’t afford. I’m sorry, Ms. King. God, I really am, but I’m afraid the cops are gonna try to pin this on me.

It’s probably not just them. By now. They must have called in the fbi. And you’re right. You are the one who broke all the laws. I did what you told me to. What are you talking about? I’m a nurse. I’m a respected member of the community who’s gonna believe you against me. You’re just a two bit actor, but the police have enough on you to send you away for a really long time.

Am well. Try to look on the bright side. Maybe there’s an inmate’s FI’s troop up there at Statesville.

Busy Helena. Think I should try again. No, no. I, okay. You’re right. You’re right, you’re right. No point. He will call when he knows something. Oh, I’m so glad you are here, Theo, darling. I’m glad I’m here too. It was driving me insane, being half a world away. We need to be going through this together. You got a real way about you.

Hm? You remind me so much of your father. When Abraham gets home, I am going to tell him what a, a wise and caring son he has raised. Then I’m gonna plant kisses all over that man.

Ooh,

damn. Stone a word from Eli.

I’m gonna call him. Hey, there he is. Hey man. What’s up? You were right. The hospital still had that blood sample of Abe, or if it was a match, the blood we found was his.

They’re sure. Yeah. Everything that God Jerry said was right. Ape’s gone. Oh.

Oh, I can’t believe this. Yeah, me neither. Look, I, I need to go tell Lonnie in person. There’s probably gonna be re reporters down there. This can hit the news. I look, I, I, I just need to tell her before she finds out I can’t, I can’t have her find out like that. Yeah, yeah. No. Um, yeah, you take off, man. I’ll handle it.

Ray. What about, um, Pauline and, and Theo? Somebody’s gotta tell them. I’ll tell her. I’ll tell her, man. You just dumb.

Take care. Okay buddy.

Wow.

Here we are. Time for our adventure. Uh, you know, I’ve been thinking pops and um, I think Paulina has a point. You changing your mind. But, but Theo, you were so set on giving your father what he wanted. Uh, I know, and like I said, I, I thought about what you said to Pops and then to me, and I realized you were right.

Uh, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have agreed to taking you out, and there are so many good reasons for you to stay put right here. So it doesn’t matter that I really wanted to go out. Oh, darling, of course it matters. But that’s why I was really trying to get behind the idea. But Theo knows what’s best for you, and he’s your son.

And of course we care and oh my goodness, who knows what would happen if we got out there. I can’t. I, I, I can’t take it anymore. I’m going over to that police station and make somebody talk to me. Wait, I, I thought you were gonna wait until you get that call back from Reef. No, I can’t just, I can’t just sit here.

Not one more minute. Now you don’t worry. I’m gonna be filled with, with hope and all of that, but I, I need, I need to hear something. Where’s my purse went? Oh, oh, oh God. Oh, hey. I was just coming to see you. Didn’t you get my message? Yeah, yeah, I did. And what? You have news? What? What did you find that, um, can we come in?

No. No, you cannot. I, um, no. You didn’t come here for this? No, I will not have it. You, you did not come here for this. I will not have it. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. We, um, we find, but we did find some remnant stuff. Who was there? There was a witness. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no.

Well, wow. Commander Michaels, I should have known, I could count on you.

A guest is waking up. I don’t think he likes his accommodations. What are you trying to do? Same thing that you were just about to do to me. You woke up very quickly. I’m impressed. I expected you to be down for at least a few more hours. New strong one commander. But I doubt that you’re strong enough to resist what a good doctor has in store.

You know? What does that mean? In just a few short moments, you’ll be back under my control. No, no. I should have seen this coming. I’m telling you. I’m warning you. This is not gonna work this time. Woo. Did you hear that doc? Our friend here doesn’t have any faith in your freelance.

Oh no. Don’t worry. I have enough faith for both of us.

No, now.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

And I’m kind of knocking with breakfast. Those two in grapes will have a little bit more appreciation, but no. EJ ate a bit, but Kristen turned her nose up at everything I brought down. So high maintenance in their defense. Megan, I think it’s safe to assume being held captive isn’t the most enjoyable of pastimes.

Lee, we cannot have two turn coats on the loose now, can we? They cast their shadow across my bright vision of the future. I got what’s coming to them that makes them a tad cranky and impatient, and so be it. Oh, speaking of impatient, how’s it all going? Tell me you’ve got good news for me. I do. I’ll be leaving soon.

Well, if we arriving any moment, great. But you just make sure that he knows what we expect of him. Brainwash shares Michaels. I know. And soon, so will he. Excellent. Once I have Michaels under my control again. Nothing can stop us.

Hey, so we have a lot to discuss. Yeah. First, tell me about your friend, the mayor. Any news on his disappearance. No, no. I just talked to one of the detectives and they have nothing. Mm. Which really calls me because Megan Hathaway still free to stalk the streets, and he had Abe, a really good guy, really runs the best of us.

He’s nowhere to be found.

Oh, I think I need to go lie down. Can I give you a hand? Yeah. I think I need it.

You, you don’t seem very steady. Do you have like a, a cane or anything to help you out?

What do you mean? I mean, this is a, this is a new suit. Is is my tie to wife. Your clothes are fine then the problem is that ugly ass hospital of yours. Oh yeah. No. Paulina doesn’t like it either, but, but what do you want me to do? I, I’m still unsteady. I mean, the last thing I wanna do is wipe out walking down the aisle at my own wedding.

Well, that’s a good thing. Your best man’s got you covered. You that

something wrong. Paul pops,

you keep calling me Pops.

You’re not my son.

Thank you so much. All right. Appreciate it. Bye. Phil, please gimme about three minutes and I’ll come and talk to you. Um, before you go back in there, can I just ask. Why are you questioning that nurse about my dad?

When, when I reviewed the case file on the day that your dad disappeared, I saw that Ms. Whitley King left the hospital early and I wanted to know why. What’d she say? She said that she wasn’t feeling well. Do you believe me?

I’m sorry, Abe. F B I breathing down my neck. What choice do I have?

Poor baby. You’re gonna have to die. Hi.

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

Hey, hey, um, I’m sorry. Um, I tried calling but you didn’t pick up. Uh, yeah, I was, I was in the shower. I’m, I’m lucky. I, I heard you knock. Yeah,

me too.

Okay, but what if he starts asking me about his life? Oh, or mine. Oh my God. You’re an actor. Just improvise. Improvise. You’re right, right, right. Just make some stuff up. Like talk to him. Your your guys. Do guy talk. That’s just the amnesia talking pops. Look, I, I, I’m your son Theo, and I, I love you a lot. Uh, but you’re just really not yourself right now.

I may not.

And I just had just now a vivid memory of my wedding day, and it was as bright as day, and I was talking to my best man. My son

and it wasn’t you. Uh, you’re really starting to worry me, pops. Um, let me get you a glass of water. All right.

So much for these acting skills. Oh,

Now, here’s the thing. When a hospital employee is sick, the protocol is to leave immediately. So she did the right thing. But what got my attention is that when Ray questioned her, she didn’t even mention it.

Agent Grant, I I, I’m very sorry to bother you. Uh, I really must get home. Is there anything else that you need from me today? Is everything okay? Yes. Well, a actually, no. Uh, my cat is sick as I, as I told you, and, uh, my neighbor has to leave and so I must get home and tend to him. He’s very old and very feeble, so.

Yeah. Um, sure. Yeah, you can go. If I need anything, then you’ll hear from me. Oh, no problem at all. Right. Bye bye. Bye bye now. Mm-hmm. Thank you for coming in. Oh, thank you. No, thank you. Wow. Is it just me or does she seem super anxious?

Yeah, I’m sorry. I seem a little, um, Yeah, once I heard the news, I dropped everything and I rushed over here. Come in please. Yeah. Thanks. Um, so yeah, so Bell came to the station. She was looking for you and uh, I don’t have all the details yet, but evidently Trask is willing to cut a deal. A deal. Hmm. What does that mean?

It means that Talia probably won’t have to serve any jail time. Are you kidding? Oh no. Oh my God. Yeah. Oh my God. Yeah. Oh, I can’t believe this. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you so much. Yeah.

Oh, Lee, if my heart didn’t belong to another man, I would kiss you. Not necessary. I assure you. So you’re positive everything’s secure with EJ and Kristen. I am. EJ is away on a fictional business trip, so all I have to do is send text messages to his dopey girlfriend and Stephan with his phone. And Kristen, no one’s looking for her except for her daughter.

And all she does is text, preteen, dribble. So I’ve just parked her phone in a drawer and on to more important things. As I told you, I’ll be meeting Ralph shortly, right. Just remember it’s imperative. But he understands that time is of the essence. So whatever he needs, he has it. There’s something he needs that we haven’t discussed.

The commander himself, well, don’t worry about that. He’s well within our grasp and he will do away with Stephan while we keep our hands clean and in her grief. Gabby will turn to me. She will indeed, and my little brother, Stephan, well, he’s in for quite a surprise. Am.

Oh, I’m sorry. I, um, no, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have, uh, brave. If you hadn’t, I would’ve jaya sh Just listen, listen to me. Okay. I, I, I wound up running into Kate downstairs and we started talking. And, and maybe she told me what I wanted to hear, but what she said, it, it really, it really changed my perspective.

What would she say? I mean, she said that, you know, what we do at work is one thing and what gives anyone the right to police what we do in the privacy of our own homes. It’s, it’s nobody’s business. And, uh, I think Kate is. Absolutely right.

So look, I appreciate your concern for my friend, but we have other pressing things to talk about. Like Shawn ruining your plan to grab Megan. Yeah, well, she was armed, he was drunk. I had to get Shawn out of there. She could have killed him. She could still kill him. I mean, she’s still free to create whatever chaos she wants to, and she also knows that you’re coming after her.

So how do we proceed now that you’ve lost the element of surprise? Kate? I’m, uh, I’m well aware of the situation, Kate. That’s why I’ve already prepared for my next encounter with Megan before I even left the property.

Oh, you have to go. No problem. Chat for now.

I didn’t hear you come in. Hmm. Obviously not. So what’s this big surprise you have in store for me? Well, I’ll just say that there are bad surprises and good surprises, and this one is in the latter category somehow. I’m not comforted by that. Fine, I’ll tell you, spoil sport. Hmm? It has to do with the party that I am planning to celebrate your engagement to.

Gabby, you told us about that. It’s hardly a surprise. Ah, but not when I was gonna keep you in the dark until the main event. But I would like to say I wouldn’t make any plans for tomorrow night if I were you. Oh, well thank you. And now that you know. I guess I’ll have to figure out another surprise for you tomorrow night.

Feel, I suppose that anyone would be anxious if they’re being questioned by the fbi? Yeah, I guess, but I don’t know. She seemed super nervous when I was talking to her earlier in the waiting room. Really? Yeah, like her hands were shaking. So what did she say? You know about not telling Rafe that she left early Liberty and my dad disappeared.

She just didn’t think it was important.

What are you thinking? Maybe it was important and that’s why she didn’t say anything, Eli. Somebody took my dad from the hospital that day and Nurse King’s whereabouts are unaccounted for. So I just hope that you’re not ruling her out. Hey, uh, here, go pops. Uh, drink some water and you’ll be, I don’t want any damn water.

I wanna know who the hell you are. Pops. I’m your son. Who else would I be? Hello there. Oh, hi there. How are my two guys? How’s my father and son duo? Did you have fun catching up? No, we did not. Um, actually there’s kind of a problem. Paulina uh, pops keeps saying I’m not who I say I am. What? Oh no, what are you talking about?

Of course. That’s your son, Theo. That’s a damn lie. He is not my son. I don’t even know him well. Well darling, you’re getting all worked up. You know, let me go and get you some water. I don’t want any damn water.

I want the truth.

Paulina, I had a very clear. Memory of our wedding day. Your best man has you covered. That’s what my son said. My real son, not this damn posture. So now, now I am starting to question everything.

Theo, I’m not ruling anyone out just yet, including Nurse King, but the issue here is evidence. Okay. So what about security cameras? They’ve gotta be all over the place in that hospital. I checked the cameras. Nothing. Hey, yeah, that, that brings up a good point because Nurse King would know where the cameras are and how to avoid them.

But Frank was given Ms. Willie King’s Hospital record. I mean by the looks of this thing. It’s immaculate. I mean, there’s not one negative word in here. She’s caring, compassionate. It’s a model nurse. So we just give up on her. She’s a good nurse. So that’s it, dear. I know this is hard, okay? It’s hard for me too, but I promise you I’m not ruling anyone out just yet.

She also said that file says at all. No, I never said that this file says at all. In fact, before she got here, I put in a request to have a background check on her.

Fuck. Let’s go in the room and see where the FBI turned up. Promise you if she’s telling stories, it’s not gonna hold up under FBI’s scrutiny.

Oh, darling, you, you, you’re getting worked up over nothing. There’s a simple explanation for everything. There is nothing simple about this. Wow. This, he’s, this is not an imposter. This is your son, Theo. And your other son was also at your wedding? My other son, yes, Brandon. He was your best man, and you just are your memories getting all mixed up.

See, doesn’t that make sense?

Grief, I hope you know that I would never do anything that could jeopardize your career. Of course. I know that. Of course. I was just, I was shocked to hear you say that because I was thinking the same thing. Don’t tell me Kate got to you too. No, no, no. It wasn’t Kate, it was Eli. Yeah, he asked about us cuz um, I guess it was obvious, you know, but he is a detective and he also had been through a similar situation with Lonnie, although they were partners, he was not her boss.

Right. But they were meant to be. And even now. Even now, nothing can stop him. I mean, he is patiently waiting for her to get out and talking to Eli just got me thinking this doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter about a rule or a law or anything. If it is meant to be, then it will be. So what are you saying? We’re meant to be.

I’m saying

I wanna find out.

Welcome home. What happened? Why are you wet? One of the hazards of traveling via a submarine. You came in a submarine, princess Gina, some point of fact, a fine mode of transportation, especially when one wishes to arrive by stealth. You understand if I’m a little wary of running afoul of the authorities given my hasty departure last time after deprogramming stuff in the mirror?

Well, Let’s hope your skills in that department haven’t rusted with time. Ah, it cut but be to mess with that poor man’s brain yet again. Relax. Relax. This isn’t about Stephan. You recall Commander Michaels, I assume the Navy Seal. Megan ve had me back on. Mm-hmm. She needs him back under her control.

Well, don’t leave me in suspense. How have you prepared for your next encounter with Megan? After, uh, getting Shawn out of the house, I placed a small tracking device on her car. I mean, she can’t stay cooped up there forever. Eventually she’ll come out and she’ll be mine.

I am sorry. I spoiled the surprise, Megan, but I guess it’s just as well, right? EJ won’t be back from his business trip by tomorrow, so I wouldn’t worry about EJ crashing your party. I would like to include Kristen though. Have you seen her? Kristen? Yeah. Kristen, her sister. Blonde lady roaming around here a little.

It’s funny, I, I poked my head in her room and her bed looked like it hadn’t been slept in. You wouldn’t know anything about our whereabouts, would you?

Well, we can’t keep anything from you, can we, I’m afraid. Um, Kristen is indisposed tomorrow evening as well,

so Kristen won’t be there. You know this because, I saw her leave. She said goodbyes and she headed outta town last night.

I don’t understand. Well, the door, the front door is right through there, and she crossed the threshold out into the world and closed the door behind her. Oh, Megan, you know very well. That’s not what I mean. Ever since Kristen has been back, all she’s wanted is custody of her daughter back. That’s all she talks about.

And so now you’re telling me just out of the blue, she books a vacation somewhere. I said that she left town. I didn’t say she was going to The Bahamas and she has not given up on her daughter. Quite the contrary. She’s taken a proactive step. You more than anyone else should know that Damira has cannibalized all of the competent lawyers in town here.

So she’s headed to New York to see if she can find a custody lawyer who can grind Brady Black into the ground. And she had quite a significant list to go through, so I shouldn’t imagine that she’ll be home anytime in the next few days. Maybe weeks. So you said she left last night? I did. If you were alone when I came in here, who’s that extra breakfast plate?

Belonged to

tell me. Mr. Shin says, what does Megan ha have up her sleeve this time? If I remember correctly, her last escapade was about an elixir for eternal youth. She goes by De Marina, and all you need to know is that she requires a unique talent to fulfill a very ambitious plan. So the question is, Dr. Rolf, are you up to the task of getting Michael’s back under her control?

My boy, this would be child’s play. I could do it in my sleep.

That was, um, better than I imagined. I’ll admit, I’ve done a bit of imagining. Me too. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

So now what? Well, I don’t, I don’t want us to keep imagining, you know, being together like this. I, I want it to keep happening. For real. Me too. Oh, yeah. Oh yeah.

All right, so let’s see. Whitley King, born in Scottsdale, Arizona. Youngest of five. Father was a pastor, mother school teacher. She paid her own way through college and nursing school. I mean, it’s, it’s all pretty unremarkable. Uh, she’s on her own now, so she’s a loner. Now. Now she was married once, divorced, widowed, just a couple of years back, and no kids.

Anything else? I’m sorry, man, but this just isn’t the profile of a criminal.

Theo. I know you had your hopes up. But upstanding citizens don’t just turn the crime without a reason. And by the looks of it, this woman doesn’t have a reason.

Well, sweetheart, does that clear everything up? Hell no. It’s just the opposite. Why the hell didn’t you tell me I had another son? Why would you keep that from me, Abe? I know I should have told you sooner. I know, but. But, but you haven’t seen Brandon since the wedding. Um, actually, he doesn’t really approve of us, and I’m sorry to say, but the two of you had a falling out and I, I just didn’t wanna bring this up.

You had so much going on and I didn’t wanna share that tension with you. And I just, it would’ve seemed cruel, you know, but now it’s out in the open and, uh, Hopefully that just clears everything up now,

I suppose. Yeah. Yeah. And you,

I owe you an apology. I was, I was harsh with you before. That’s okay. Pops. Um, I’m, I’m just worried about you and, uh, I want you to get better. You know what, Theo, you’ve had such a long flight coming in from South Africa. You must be exhausted. Let’s get you to the hotel and rest up. Yeah, I am feeling a bit tired.

Yeah. Let’s, I’ll walk you out. Sure. Alright, come on. See, you see Pops? Yeah.

You are so lucky that he has another son. I, I leave you over two minutes and damn it Jerry, I told you to improvise in case something happened. What? I tried, improv is hard. Okay. You know what? Forget it. Just don’t have any time to waste. There’s something else I need you to do for me,

and don’t worry, there’s no improv. Just wait here for a second. There’s something I gotta go to first. Jerry,

what are you doing?

Don’t worry, darling. This won’t take long.

Oh, what won’t take long. I need to get a blood sample from you. Blood sample. Yes. Right before I came home, I got a call from the hospital. They want you to come all the way back down there just to get one little sample. I told him that you’re doing very, very well, but just not quite well enough to make that trip all the way back down there for something I could do right here in the comfort of our own home.

Okay? Okay.

Okay. Here’s an option. How about we never get out of this bed? And we just, we just leave the world and it’s stupid rules behind tempting, but

we both have jobs to do. So here’s another option. Okay. How about at work? We are consummate professionals committed to the forest. Mm-hmm. But behind and closed doors we’re committed to each other. Oh, I like that option a lot.

You gotta get back to work. No, no, no. I have to get back to work for you. You have to get that rest that I ordered you to get. Oh gosh. Mm-hmm. I knew you would find a way to pull rank, but you know what? Hmm? To complete that game, huh? And I am not going to let you leave without giving me another kiss. Oh, okay.

Mm-hmm.

There we go. All done. I’ll just run this down to the hospital. You know, I could go with you, huh? I think I’m feeling up to it. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You stay here and rest. I insist I’ll be back at two shakes of a lamb’s tail. Oh, I know you’re probably going stir crazy in here, but do this my way. It’s gonna be best for all of us.

Now listen up. This is what I need you to do. I was alone when you got here. But before that, my son, Dimitri was here and we were having breakfast fussy eater that he is. He turned his nose up at the breakfast sausages. Ah, I see. He is lost then. Good to know. I’ll make sure to include it on the menu for your last meal.

Your last meal is a bachelor before your wedding day sausages. Better write that down so I don’t forget.

Ah,

quite the shopping list, Ralph. That was the last time I performed work like this was under trying circumstances to say the least. Lots of proper tools. This time, instead of having to resort to a collection of kitchen implements and pub paraphernalia, not too much to ask in exchange for my talents, I suppose not.

Plutonium. If you want my work to stick this time, I need everything on that list. Everything okay? Okay. Relax. You’ll get it. Excellent. That is the subject. Now, we’ll make him available to you very soon. Is it really today to reconsider Megan’s fate? I mean, honestly. I mean, it doesn’t make any sense to disappear her into parts unknown if she’s just gonna escape and make her way back here.

Okay. Okay. Take my word for it. Once she’s gone, she’s not coming back. Is that arrogance or confidence? Michael’s experience.

What is it? It’s Megan, she’s leaving the house as we speak. I better go. Good luck. Luck will have nothing to do with this.

I guess Megan already left. I was gonna ask her if she thought there was a small chance Christian could make an appearance at our engagement party, but you’re right as you always are. I should just call her myself. All right. I’m gonna give her a ring and uh, let you know what she says. Love you.

Why the hell would Kristen go to New York without her phone

friend Michaels. You following me?

We have unfinished business. Megan,

your moments are numbered. Megan Deir, you Smart, evil witch. First sign of insanity. Hey, Jayda, talking to yourself. I’m in. Uhha. Right. Although I’m not sure that you heard what I was saying. Oh, I, I didn’t actually. Right, right. I was just bemoaning the fact that my son Rex really gets in touch with me. You know, the doctor.

Right, right. Mm. So, um, is that rave that I saw leaving before? It was actually. Mm-hmm. So did you take my advice?

Alright, let’s start from the beginning. Tell us everything you saw.

Hey, Brandon. No, no, there still no news about that. But I was at the station a couple of minutes ago when Eli and Raf got a call. Yeah, leave. I think, well, they rushed out to check it out without telling me much about it, but, um, hopefully we’ll finally get some answers.

You are gone for a long time, Pauline. I’m sorry Hun, but I wanted to wait for your test results and, and. You passed with flying colors. Good news. Oh, I was walking way over there when I saw someone by the edge of the docks and he looked, uh, totally out of it. What do you mean out of it? Uh, wobbly, like unsteady.

And then the next thing I know, uh, he just stumbles and hits his head on one of the pylons. And, and then splash right into the drink. And then I, I ran over here, but he must have sunk like a stone because I, I can’t swim otherwise I would’ve jumped in after him. Mm-hmm. And no one else was around. Uh, I called for help, but no one came.

All right. You stay here. We’re gonna check this out. Hey Ray, look at this. Yeah. It’s blood. It’s fresh.

Oh God, what’s this?

What is it?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Well, thank you for agreeing to see us this morning. I know how busy you are. I am. So let’s keep this short. Okay, short. It is, uh, as we’ve discussed, my client has agreed to testify against Colin Bedford in exchange for some certain considerations. Actually, I’ve changed my mind about that. Excuse me. Yeah.

I think it sets a terrible precedent for a truly dangerous criminal to be given a walk in exchange for pointing the finger at our co-conspirator. Okay, well, it’s not your job to decide whether she’s dangerous or a criminal. It’s the court’s job. And in court I will present an open and closed case that will put Ms.

Hunter away for a long, long time.

I hope that if we went over everything again, maybe. So maybe we’d find something that we’d missed and all we missed was a night’s sleep. Yeah, thanks. Now they said the academy, that missing person cases go dry after three days. It’s been missing now almost three weeks. Rafe, we’ll find him. Yeah,

that that’s great. I will. Thank you so much. That was the Salem Health Department. They’re letting me reopen sweet bits. That’s wonderful, baby. Oh mama. I’m sorry. It wasn’t news about Abe. I keep saying to myself any day now, his memory will come back. The doctor said it could, and my, my phone will ring and it will be him.

I’ll go wherever he is and bring him home.

Time for breakfast time. Breakfast from my baby. Here we go. Here we go. Bon Appit boat meal again. Well, it’s, it’s heart healthy, and I want you to live a long life. Well, facing this every morning is going to seem like a long life. You know, when we renewed our vows yesterday, I promised to love you through sickness and health, and I’m gonna do my best to make sure that it’s mainly in health.

Wasn’t it nice to say those words again? Yesterday? Would’ve been nicer if we’d had our family there. Oh wow. That means you’re gonna really like the surprise that I have for you. Bacon. Oh, it’s better than bacon. Your son is back in Salem,

Theo. Oh my God. It is so good to see you again. Hi Kate. Oh, honey, I wish it was under circumstances. Me too. Listen, I uh, I heard your speech at Juneteenth. No, no, my, that was my dad’s speech. No, honey, you made that speech your own. He would be so proud of you. Do you think he’s gonna be okay? Of course I do.

You know how strong he is? Right now I know that he is working on getting back to you. I wish that I could be so short.

Theo thought you told me he lived overseas. He did, but he came back home because of your situation. So I’m going to see him. That’s right. You know, I’m thinking if I can see my son, my own flesh and blood, then I can remember him and then I can remember everything.

Like Sam through the hour. So are the days of lives.

You know, your dad and I had known each other for a long time, but I think I really got to know him. When thanks to me, you were in the hospital fighting for your life. No, I think that was, thanks to me being shot. Yeah. But that was my fault, you know? No, he never left your bedside ever, except of course when the doctors would, would make him leave your room.

I watched him go through parent hell, and he never wavered. I think, I think it was his love for you that we’ll do to come back and I, I really believe that that same love is gonna wheel him back to you. I hope you’re right.

I’m sorry, I, I have to go. Someone needs me right now. Okay. Phil, what is it?

Now, Abe, listen to me. I I don’t want you to get your hopes up. You know, you may not remember him right away, and that’s okay. I keep telling you these kinds of cases. Sometimes they just take time. Wait a minute, why isn’t he here? I mean, if he came here to see me, why? Why didn’t he come straight here? Well, because seeing him right away is gonna be stressful for both of you.

He wanted me to break it to you first, and so I did. And I just texted him and he’s on his way.

Eli. Whoa. What’s happening man? Wow. It’s good to see you. Hey, you doing hi? Looking good, man. Thanks. You too. Uh, hey, um, this is, uh, Jada. I don’t think you two, I’m sorry. Detective Hunter, this is, uh, Eli Grant. F b I used to work at Salem pd. Nice to meet you. Same here. Yeah. He’s also Abe’s, uh, son-in-law. Oh.

Figured. I’d come by and see if there’s any, anything I can do to help. Great. Well hopefully a fresh pair of eyes will help us find something that we missed. Yeah. This is everything we got. All right. You guys been pretty thorough? Oh yeah. Yeah. We spent the night going over everything, but, uh, nothing’s jumping out at us.

So, uh, let me walk you through So far. No, no, no. Jada, you go home. You’ve already been here all night. Well, so have you go home, get something to eat and get some rest. That’s an order. Has he always been this wishy That’s one of his best qualities. So, go on. I’ll let you know if something happens here.

Please do. Okay, Eli, it was great meeting you. Hopefully you can bring us some luck. Yeah, have a good one. See ya.

She’s great. She’s great. She’s been through a lobby. She never gives up. She’s not real. Ask that to the team.

What, what with the look? No, no. It’s. I’m, I’m happy for you. Oh, you’re, you’re okay. You’re happy for me? Yeah. She seems like you know. Good girl. Clearly there’s something going on between you two.

I know you’re not gonna deny it.

All I said was that Jada has an incredible work ethic and that she’s been a real asset to the team. And yeah, you know, it’s been intense between us because we have been working so closely together, especially on this case, and I have worked a lot of big cases and as intense as they’ve been. I don’t recall us ever holding Nance when I walked in.

Y’all were holding Nance.

Okay, fine. Mm, fine. All right. Jada and I are, we’re attracted to each other, but we also both know that nothing can come of it.

Jada. Hi. Oh my God, Kate. Oh my goodness. I am so glad to see you alive and back. Well, how do you think I feel, you know, this probably shouldn’t be the first thing I say to you, but you look like you’re feeling a little rough. Well, don’t sugarcoat it. Well, I’m just saying you dragged yourself in here. Did you have a night on the town?

Yeah, a night on the town at the station house going over Abe’s case. Oh yeah, I know. I’m so sorry. Of course. Of course. I’ll tell you. It’s just a nightmare, isn’t it? I’m just praying that he is somewhere alive and well. Yeah, we are all praying that. Ralph and I spent the night going over yet again.

Everything that we have, right. You know, um, I hope you’re a personal relationship isn’t going to be a distraction, you know, working on the case now, why would it be? Well, I mean, I have to admit that I do read Lady Whistle. Lowers column every once in a while. And, uh, recently she reported that you and Ray were seen being affectionate in the office.

So kissing you mean? Yeah. Well I wasn’t being so blunt. I mean, but it’s not like I had put stock in idle gossip anyway. Well, it’s, it’s not idle gossip. It’s, it’s the truth.

Big mama’s packing to go home. And of course she wouldn’t even hear of me trying to help. She’s pretty upset about going home before we found aid. What’d you say? Nothing important. Are you okay? Yeah, yeah. I, uh, was just about to post the job opening at Sweet Bits, and then I got caught in a bag. Kind of dejavu reminded you of Talia?

No, I didn’t need to be reminded. I ran into her yesterday. She’s out on bail. Did she threaten you? No, nothing like that. She was putting up posters asking if anyone had seen Abe, why would she be doing that? She was probably trying to help her case so that the DA will go easy on her. Wait, but you said that Talia, let me handle this.

My client and Colin Bedford are not co-conspirators. Yes, Talia committed some crimes at his instigation, which means that he is responsible for everything Talia did at his behest. But let’s not forget that on his own, he held a gun to Chanel Dupre’s, head to coerce Paulina Price to jump off a five story building.

Do you really think a guy like that should walk? Because without my client’s testimony, without your client’s testimony, I still have a rock solid case against Bedford. Ms. Hunter’s own sister, a Salem police officer is an eyewitness to what happened on that roof, and Paulina Price will testify to his attack against Mayor Carver, which will give me enough to lock your boyfriend up for a very long time.

He’s not my boyfriend. Not anymore. Well, that’s probably for the best I’ve heard. It’s hard to keep a relationship when each of you are serving long sentences in different correctional facilities. Oh, watch it more. I’ve got your confession to your own sister about you drugging those biscuits. And trashing Paulina Price’s office, which means I can use your own words to prove to the judge and jury that you are guilty as hell.

Okay? There is no need to pile on Melinda. Oh, am I supposed to be polite to her? I am a fit and healthy woman. And your drugs that you put in those biscuits sent me to the emergency room. Heaving my guts out all night long. It could have killed a child, a senior, anyone with a compromised immune system. Did you even think about that?

Did you? Okay. Did you think about the fact that she actually saved Chanel and Paulina’s life and nearly died in the process? You would’ve never been on that roof in the first place if it wasn’t for your client. Look, I don’t take my job lightly, and I’ve gone over and over the evidence. And there is nothing there that indicates any kind of leniency.

Okay, here’s something new.

I got Jack. There you go. Okay. I’m a little nervous. I, I just hope I, I, I hope I recognize him. If I don’t, I, I don’t know how that make him feel. Oh God. I told him about your condition. He’ll understand. You seem a little nervous. Maybe just a little. Are you and Theo getting along? Well, to be honest, we don’t really know each other that well.

I’ll get it.

Well, here he is, your son, Philo. Hello Pops.

I also think that Toya is working some angle trying to convince everyone that all the things she did were Colin’s fault. Is that what she said? No. No. She apologized and tried to take responsibility for what she did. So tell me this, are you thinking of forgiving her?

Oh, I’ll get it. Hmm.

Hey y’all. Oh, I’m so glad you’re here, honey. Hey, I came as soon as I got your text. What’s up? Oh, mama Price is uh, leaving for Florida this morning and she wouldn’t leave us saying goodbye to you. What she actually said was, I have to see that handsome face of his. One more time.

Is this my son? Yes it is. It’s uh, good to see you again, pops. Thank you for coming. No problem, sir. Uh, you really don’t remember me? I am, I’m sorry. I, I don’t, well just give it time. You two just need to get to know each other again. Theo, sit down.

Uh, yes. Would you, uh, like some coffee? Uh, no, I’m good. Oh.

Uh, uh, so, uh, how was your flight? Uh, it was good. Long. Yeah? Yeah. So, uh, where, where are you living now? Uh, south America, South Africa. I, uh, sorry, uh, a major jet lag. I had a layover in Brazil. I got mixed up. You, you had a stop over in Brazil on a flight from South Africa. That’s, uh, Boy, that’s way out of the way.

I, uh, got a deal. Cheap flights. Huh? Must have had it whole day. You know, you know what aid You are always so good at geography. You know me. I get lost on my way to the hospital sometimes. Oh, pops. Would you mind if I had a talk with Paulina out in the corridor? Why I, I don’t think that’s necessary. Paulina, right, please.

Yes. Excuse us. Let’s talk.

You didn’t tell me that The guy you were talking about was the mayor. What has she been with? Amnesia. He’s no fool. I mean, he’s not only good at geography, but he knows damn well there’s something going on. Because like an idiot. You said that you were from South America. I gave you Theo’s background. I didn’t have time to read all that stuff you sent and, and I, I didn’t expect to get grilled or, or that or that.

What? That he’s a good guy who needs help, needs his real family. I’m sorry, I can’t do this. You mean nothing can come of it? She’s single, right? She is. Okay. Well so are you. What’s the problem? Good jobs. Okay. Look, I know from experience that two cops getting together isn’t easy, but Lonnie and I proved that it’s possible.

You and Lonnie were partners. I’m Jade’s boss. Okay. And there are now new regulations in place. Fraternization with a subordinate is now grounds for dismissal. Yeah. Forgot about those new regulations. Mm-hmm. That sucks, man. Yeah. Uhhuh. And I know you’re looking at me right now and you’re thinking, oh man, this guy.

He’s got some real bad luck when it comes to women. Oh no. Yeah, I was not thinking that bad. You were. Cause I saw you. All right. You were and you’d be right. Yeah. Well, I am happy for race, happy for you. Well, there’s nothing to be happy about. I mean, the only reason he kissed me was because he was high on those tainted biscuits.

Well, whatever the reason, I don’t know. It seems like when you talk about him, there is a little something there. Okay. Maybe. Yeah. But I mean, we work together and, and plus the city council has all these guidelines. Oh, screw the guidelines. Are you kidding me? You know, I was just telling Eric and Sloan, life is short.

You know, we don’t wanna waste what little time we have. You’re just waiting. You’re just getting older, right? I mean, if you’re interested, you should go for it.

What is that? In a second? Talia, do you take responsibility for drugging those biscuits? Yes, I do. And do you also take responsibility for breaking into and vandalizing MS Price’s office? Yes, I do. You’re just making my case for me. Talia, are you also currently under the care of a psychiatrist? Yes. Um, Dr.

Melina Evans. This is a signed affidavit by Dr. Evans detailing the nature of the relationship between Talia and Colin, and I truly believe this changes everything.

The worst thing about being in a abusive relationship is the shame that we feel. I. A man treats us badly and somehow we still believe it’s our fault.

Years later, we think we’re past it and comes back like malaria. He not only makes us feel unworthy of his love, but of anyone else’s, you keep saying. We and us.

My ex-husband, Mr. Trask, he was a very, um,

shall we say, controlling man. I was so afraid of him. So cow. That I denied the existence of my own daughter. I kept, kept her a secret, um, from him, from the world.

Uh, sometimes I still wonder how I found the strength to break away from him.

I am so sorry. I I’m so sorry that you both have had to suffer like that.

So it’s, it’s clear though, Melinda, that you understand what Talia’s been through, and I, I know that that was really painful for you to share.

What do you think this means for her case?

You are back already. Your mom would not let me drive to the airport. So we got our taxi. And don’t worry, I slept a driver, a 21. Big mama wasn’t looking that way. He’d get more than Bible verses for a tip. Good for you. So Theo, you, you had breakfast, what would you like? No, nothing for me. Thanks. It was great to see your mom again, but I’m afraid I’ve gotta get going.

I’m gonna head down to the police station. I’ll find my dad.

So you really think I should go forward with Rae? Okay. Full disclosure, Ray and I have, uh, a little bit of history. We actually dated for a while. It was years ago. And, uh, even though I had issues with a lot of things that he did, I will say he’s one of that rare breed, a good man. But the work thing don’t, you can just make the work thing work out, you know?

I mean, I would suggest no more p d a in the office, but when you and Rave are in the privacy of your own home, Pass off the city council or anyone else’s business. Right.

Okay. Please. Those are all the witness statements. Like Jada said, maybe a fresh pair of eyes see something we missed. Speaking of eyes, you could barely keep yours open. Why don’t you take your own advice, go home, get something to eat, take a shower and get some rest. I’ll call you if I need anything. I’m actually too tired to argue with you.

That’s cuz you know I’m right. Mm-hmm. Right’s. Good to see you, bro. See you too. I’ll be back this afternoon. Don’t set an alarm. Mm.

You can’t back out on me now. You agreed to do this. Plus I paid you good money. This is a great challenge for an actor. I’m an actor, not a con man. I’m not asking you to con anybody. And wait a minute. Didn’t your grandmother get help when she was in the hospital? Here we go. Yeah, that’s right. Here we go.

Your grandmother had no health insurance, but thanks to me. She got the help that she needed. And what did it cost her? Nothing. Right? Nothing because I doctored her intake form so she could get the help she needed. So you owe me. Jerry, big time. You have been accepted into the family since you’re feeling so sorry for Pops.

I only wanted you to act like his son to help him with his recovery, but it’s not gonna help him. I mean, I can see that it, it’s only confusing him. Listen to me, Jerry. I’m a nurse and I’m his wife, and I know best. You can’t walk away from this besides what would happen to your career if this came out.

Okay, but what if I do? If he starts asking me about his life or fine, oh my God, you’re an actor. Just improvise. Improvise. Yeah. Right, right, right. Just make some stuff up, like talk to him. Your, your guys. Do guy talk sports or something? I don’t know.

Hello? This king? Yes, this is she. This is Agent Eli Gran the fbi. I’m investigating the disappearance of Abe Carver. I need you to come down to the police station right away. Oh, I, I can’t, my cat is sick and I can’t leave him. Okay, then I’ll, I’ll come to you. No, no, no, no. That’s not necessary. I’ll just have a neighbor come over.

Mm-hmm. I’ll see you soon.

Look, um, I, I need you to go in there and, and, and just be with him. I, I got some place I gotta go. Hey, look, you’ve spent an hour and I, I won’t take that long. Um, I’ll give you an extra hundred. Look, I, I, I, I need you to stay with him and I gotta go, alright? Okay. Okay. See and cash. Remember, I,

I’m back pops. What were you talking about out there? Where’s, where’s, where’s Paulina? What’s going on here?

Hey. Hey. Hello. Hey. Oh, how’s Shawn? Uh, he’s not doing great. He’s still reeling after everything that happened in Greece. Oh, well that’s understandable. Yeah. On top of that, he’s feeling pretty guilty about not being able to help find Abe. Oh, you know what? Tell him not to worry. Eli’s here. We got it covered, but, uh, is there anything I can do for you?

Uh, actually I’m here to see Jada. I have news about Talia’s case. I will file my recommendation with the court community service, and, uh, probation and continuing to see Dr. Evans.

Thank you so much. I never expected this to happen. If there’s anything I can do, You can keep going to therapy and work on your self-worth. Get to a place where you can feel that you deserve to be treated with kindness and respect so that what happened with you and Colin Bedford will not happen again.

So we were talking about Talia before Theo showed up. Are you thinking of forgiving her hearing Talia talk about Colin. It wasn’t just the things he said or did, it was more about the way he manipulated her. He played on her insecurities, took advantage of the way she felt about him to get her to do things that she didn’t really wanna do.

Emotional abuse, like what Ray did to me, Colin’s father did to me. Yeah, all too similar. So you think Charlie was a victim in all this? She loved Colin and she was afraid that she’d lose him if she didn’t do what he. Told her to do. And as, as much as I hate what she put you through, put us all through, she’s in pain, real pain, and it’s going to take her a long time to get over it.

What, you didn’t answer me, what did you have to talk to her about? Uh, okay. Okay. Uh, Paulina got a call. She, uh, had to run an errand. You still didn’t answer my question. What did you and Paulina have to talk about alone? Um, uh, you want the truth? Um, I asked her if my showing up here. Upset. You see? I mean, I mean, yeah.

It, it, it’s, it’s weird. I don’t know how to talk to you when you don’t, when when? I don’t remember you. Yeah. I’m sorry. It, it is weird. I’m sorry. Hey, it’s, it’s not your fault, so I guess we just gotta try to get to know each other again. It’s okay if I sit. Yeah, of course. Of course. Please do.

So, uh, how about those white socks?

Oh, excuse me, aren’t you Abe Carver son? Theo? Yeah, I am. Do I know you? No, no. I, I was one of your father’s nurses. I, I was there, uh, the day your stepmother was trying to jog his memory. Oh, he’s such a wonderful man. What a terrible thing to happen to him. Yeah, I was. Yeah. So why are you here? Oh, uh, uh, I received a call, uh, from the fbi, uh, agent grant to come down.

Yeah. Um, I’m actually here to see him too. Really? Oh, but you weren’t even here when your father went missing? No, not as a witness. Eli is my sister’s husband and my dad’s son-in-law, my friend. I’m here to help him and we’re not gonna stop until we find my dad.

You seem a little nervous. Yeah. You know, I just don’t know why they called me down here. I mean, I told the police everything I know. So. Ms. King? Yes, that’s right. Yoo. I need to speak to Ms. King. Yeah, that’s okay. I’ll wait this way. Nice to be.

Thank you Ms. King for coming in. You gotta have a seat right here. Okay.

Thank you. You’re welcome. I’ll be with you in just a second.

You know, as, as I was telling, uh, Abe carver’s son outside, I’ve, I’ve already told the police everything.

Now you can tell me everything, you know. I was going over your statement about the day Abe Carver went missing. You were on duty, right? Well, uh, yes. Yes, I was. Uh, but as I told the police, I, I didn’t see anything. Well, you, you couldn’t have, did you, excuse me, because you left work early hours before the end of your shift, and I’d like to know why

you, okay.

Just a little bit overwhelmed. I still can’t believe I’m not going to prison. Seriously. Thank you so much Ms. Brady. No. Well, not always, but sometimes the prosecution and the defense work together to get it right. Um, I just went to the station to tell your sister the good news, but she’d already gone home.

Well, should I call her? I, I think Rafe was going over there to tell her

Jayna open up. I got some good news

after all the terrible things that Colin Bedford did. He still denies taking Abe out of the hospital. Yeah. And the police say they’re sure that he didn’t do it, but we both know that Eli won’t give up until he finds Abe and he makes sure that whoever did take him pays. Um, I, I was sick that day, so I went home early.

Like your cat? Huh? What? When we spoke on the phone, you said that your cat was sick. Oh, right. That’s right. He has ringworm. Aw. What was wrong with you that day? The day that Abe car went missing? I, uh, well, I was feeling like I was getting the flu. I had a slight fever. Uh, and you know, I can’t be around patients.

I. Like that. So, you know, you didn’t mention that in your statement. Oh, well, I, I didn’t think it was important. No, it’s not for you to decide what’s important and what’s not, which is why you’re gonna tell me everything that happened on that day. And this time you’re not gonna leave anything out.

I’m sorry. I’ll be right back.

Kitchen grant.

Eli is my sister’s husband and my dad’s son-in-law, my friend. I’m here to help him and we’re not gonna stop until we find my dad.

God, help me. I don’t have a choice. A carver has to die.

White socks. I, I, I think I’m a cuts fan. No, I’m sorry. I forgot. No, no, no. I’m, I’m, I’m sorry. I, I know this is hard on you. I.

Oh, I’m sorry. I just, all of a sudden I just got a, I just got a headache. I think I, I think I need to rest. Okay. Can I give you a hand? Yeah, I think, uh, I think I’m gonna need it.

You don’t seem very steady. Do you have like a cane or anything to help you out?

So what, what do you mean? I mean, this is a, this is a new suit. Is is my tie too wide? Your clothes are fine dad. The problem is that ugly ass hospital can viewers. Oh yeah. Well, Paulina doesn’t like it either, but what do you want me to do? I’m still unsteady. I mean, the last thing I wanna do is wipe out walking down the aisle of my own wedding.

Well, it’s a good thing your best man’s got you covered. Beer bad.

Something wrong, Paulina.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Look, we bested Maggie in a business deal and now she’s pissed off. Why should we care? Because we care about Maggie. She’s not just a competition. No, and I understand that, but I mean, it’s not like Maggie getting even is like Uncle Vic getting even. I mean really Brady, what the hell is she gonna do? Like cut off our lemon bars?

It’s all right. You’re gonna laugh this one off. Really? Look, we made a better deal for Kassoff than Titan did, and now Maggie is gonna have to learn to live with that.

So you’re offering me a job at Titan to be my second in command. Alex’s old job. That’s right. I’d like you to start right away. What would Victor think about having a demara on the inside track at his company? A Damara was Once Titan’s, c e o Victor hired you himself, he also fired me,

but not for incompetence. Chad, you are a brilliant businessman. I know that you will be an enormous asset to Titan. Besides, I am in charge now, so Victor will defer this matter to me. And as far as this cu to me feud if Brady and Alex can work for your family’s company. Why can’t you work for mine?

Hey. Oh, sorry. You’re doing your yoga. No, no, no. I can wait. Please come in.

Something’s wrong. Your checkup today. Is it the baby? No, no, no. Everything is fine. It’s just I got home and I got this voicemail. Sarah. Hey, uh, it’s body carus. The reason I’m calling you is that we need to talk. Look, uh, the thing is, as hard as I’m trying, I. I don’t know if I can keep your secret.

I’m screwed. No, no, no, no. I’m so sorry. No, hold on. Just, just calm down. Look, um, it doesn’t sound like Bonnie told Sandra or anything. Yeah. Right. So maybe call her back and, and talk her down. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that’s, That’s a good idea. I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna do that.

Hello? Sarah. Sarah, you sound awful. I know. It’s just No, but just a bad cold, I guess. You got my message? Yeah. I could. Please tell me that you didn’t tell Xander about the baby. No, I didn’t. I s I swear. Okay. That’s great. Thank God. But I did tell one person. You did. Who? Who did you tell Bonnie? It was just Justin.

Okay. You can spare a couple of minutes. Go on, pull her, pull up her chair and tells everything that’s going on with you. No, there’s really nothing new to report. Yeah. Uh, nothing really. I got nothing. Not one thing. Yeah. Are you, uh, sure about that? Why wouldn’t I be sure? I don’t know. You just seem like you’re acting a little bit nervous.

It’s not like you.

Okay. Look, there is something and you have every right to know what it is.

Like sand through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

You told Xander’s cousin that I’m having Xander’s baby. Oh man, he’s my husband. What was I supposed to do? You promised that you wouldn’t tell anyone. Bonnie, will you just listen? I gave Justin a dollar as a retainer before I opened my mouth. Right? So if he Blas, he’s gonna violate that attorney client thingy.

All right? And Justin would never do that.

You need an antihistamine for that cold? No, I’m fine. Justin, skinny me some chicken doodle soup. Listen, everything is gonna be okay. All right. Zander is very busy right now, and it’s not like Justin is gonna be seeing him. All right. Justin’s not gonna say anything. They’re not gonna be hanging out. Zander is busy.

Like I said, he is very, very busy. What do you mean? Very busy? Like, like with work? Well, he’s very busy with, with his new girlfriend. Look, you might as well know he’s Porking Chloe Lane.

Well, don’t leave us hanging. Justin, what’s the big news? This may come as a surprise. This is not my secret to tell, and I only know that Sarah’s pregnant because I ran into her in Chicago and she made me swear. Swear not to tell anyone, please. Justin, are you gonna tell Sandra,

I know you gave Sarah your word, but I didn’t. But you’re my wife and I love you so. I will not tell Zach. What is it? What is it that I have a right to know that Alex has gone to work for Basic Black. Ah, wait, that’s your big news. Oh, so Brady gave Alex my old job. You know, he practically begged Chloe to go back and work for him, but she told him that she’d rather to keep working for me at the Spectator.

Meant the world to me. So you are living together and working together? Yeah, that’s right. And that’s the way we like, you know, Maggie tried to get me to go back and work at Titan and I said, no dies. Well, no, I’m curious. I wonder if she’s gonna get to take Alex’s place.

I’m flattered, uh, about the offer, Maggie, but I already have a job at S J P R working for me. Chad is my most valuable employee, and Titan is one of s j’s most lucrative clients. So you do would still be working together? One of Chad’s responsibilities would be acting as liaison to S J P R like Alex did when he had the job.

And uh, as far as the Commute, Titan’s headquarters is right down the street. Right. Um, I actually just, uh, told Doug and Julie that the kids and I are gonna be moving out. Really? Oh, well, where are you moving? Well, we don’t know yet. We, yeah, we, Chad and I are moving in together. Hmm.

I would not underestimate Maggie if I were you. Alex, she’s been my sponsor for years, and I’ll tell you what, she is as tough as she has to be. Well, she’s definitely no pushover, but she sure as hell has no idea how to run a business. Oh, hey Alex. I, uh, I’m glad you’re here. I actually have your employment contract here saved me from sending you a pdf.

If you could just, uh, read it, sign it, send it back to me, that’d be great. I will do that right now. Okay. And I have another matter to discuss with you. Uh, uh uh, this looks good to me. Uh, that was pretty. There you go. Pretty set pretty fast. Did you read all of the fine print? Yeah. I’m a speed reader, not to mention I trust you guys.

Got leaving Titan behind me, going to work for my cousin who would never screw me over. It’s the smartest move I’ve made in a long time. Where you going? Well, it seems like you two needed to talk.

There you go. So what is this other matter? Is it a tamira business? Uh, one Damira in particular, Kristen.

Well, congratulations on taking that big step. I hope you find the perfect place to start your life together. Thank you Maggie. It’s gonna be so wonderful for Thomas and Charlotte. I know they’re quite crazy about you, Stephanie. Ah, I think it was both ways. I love them very much and they’re very lucky to have a wonderful father and now to have a wonderful you and their lives.

I’m the lucky one. Well, look, I really should get going. Um, just one thing, Stephanie, I hope you will support Chad if he decides to accept my offer. Yes, I will. Yeah. I can’t say I’m not interested. I, I, I just need some time to think about it. I understand. But don’t take too long. Uh, I am, I am just ready to go with my plans for Titan and fill in that position is crucial.

Care to tell me what your plans are. Okay. Um, EJ and the others, they’re so sure. I don’t know what I’m doing. I. So I am gonna take advantage of that. So Demer Enterprises is gonna get a run for its money. Congratulations you two again, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Whoa. I, uh, I haven’t seen that side of Maggie before. Yeah, me neither. What are you thinking? I, I don’t know. I mean, her offering me the number two PO position. I mean, I didn’t see that coming. I assume that this is about, My daughter. Yes it is. So you had asked me to make sure that the family court ruling giving you custody of Rachel was ironclad.

Yes. So I went over the ruling in detail and there is absolutely no wiggle room for Kristen. You are legally the sole custodial parent. But let me guess. Kristen wants to dispute the ruling. Oh, had to guess. Oh, just had a no-brainer there. Have you heard from her legal team at all? I have not, which I think is really strange.

And I’m guessing you haven’t either. Nobel not a word. Well, that begs the question then. Where is Kristen Demira and what the hell is she up to?

Xander and Chloe. How can that be? She hates him. Not anymore. She’s living with the dude.

Wow. Okay. Um, I guess he really has moved on only because he doesn’t think he has a snowballs chance in hell in getting back with you. Now, if he knew you were carrying his child, I bet he’d dropped Chloe Lane like a hot rock. So maybe you should reconsider and tell him about the baby.

I have no idea who Maggie will hire to replace. I’m not art of her inner circle. All right, well, I’m pretty sure that inner circle is just big enough for two, her and Uncle Victor. Hmm, probably. Well, if you excuse me, I have a sick wife who’s at home and she’s in desperate need some chicken soup. I’m concerned that Bonnie might be suffering from a little bit more than a head cold.

Wow. Why do you say that? It’s just that the last time I saw him, she’s acting, seem really nervous. I, I dunno it as if she knew something that she didn’t want me to find out.

You’ve been kind of quiet since Maggie blew outta here. What can I say? She’s a tough act to follow. Well, I’d like to know, uh, I’d like to know how you feel about the job offer. Well, I think you have to consider taking it. I mean, it’s a, it’s a very important position, but,

well, he’d be taking Alex’s job, a job that he loved.

Hey, what up, sunny Boy? How’s the hubby and my niece? Good, good. Now the new gig is going great. I actually just signed a contract today. No, I don’t have any problem working for the Demaris. And hey, I tried to stay a Titan, but Uncle Vick’s power mad wife had other ideas. I, I know Maggie tried to get me my job back, but I also know that it would just be a matter of time before she had some other reason to fire me again.

And who the hell needs that?

Okay. Just know that Maggie and I have parted company and I couldn’t be happier.

Well, you’re right. Radio silence has never been Kristen’s style. Mm-hmm. Look at how she reacted when I tried giving her limited visitation rights to sued for full custody. I think she’s just trying to make a sweat. I don’t know. You know her better than I do. Well, I, I mean, she’s capable of anything. She could be doing anything.

I, but at least she’s not gonna go after Chloe this time. How do you know that? You just said she’s capable of anything. No. Be the only reason Chloe was a target before was because Kristen thought Chloe would end up raising Rachel. All right. And that’s, that’s obviously off the table now. Why are you. You haven’t heard, Chloe is living with Xander now.

What is she out of her mind? I don’t know what Bonnie could possibly be hiding from you, Xander. I really don’t. I’m sure she was just. Being Bonnie, you know her now. If you excuse me, I really need to place my order. Sure. Its great seeing you, Justin. Take care. Good seeing you. You too. I seeing you too.

Is it just me or does it see my Justin knows whatever it is that Bonnie knows. I don’t know, but he does seem uncomfortable. But baby, he’s just anxious to get home to his sick wife. No. All right. Yeah, maybe that’s it. So Sarah, what do you say? Would it be so bad to tell Xander he’s gonna be a daddy? I don’t want him back in my life bar.

So you and Justin are just gonna have to keep it to yourself. So you hear me? Yeah. Yeah, I hear you. Our lips are sealed, so, oh, listen, I gotta get off the phone. I’m gonna have another coughing fit. Goodbye. And good luck to you. Bye Bonnie.

So Bonnie told Justin everything I. Pretty much. And Xander is dating Chloe now.

You okay? Yeah. Why wouldn’t I be? I mean, Zander and I are divorced and that’s her what I said to Bonnie. I want that creep outta my life. So, He can date whoever he wants. Dear it,

so can I.

I can’t believe Chloe is seeing Xander Cook. You’re not joking with me. No. No. You think I would joke about something like that? I mean, she just hasn’t said anything to me about this. Yeah, cuz she knew that you would go through the roof when you heard that. Yeah. Damn. Straight. I would. Xander shot mom and you and he made Sarah and Eric believe that Rachel was there, baby.

And that your baby with Kristen had died. Yes. And then he went, all I know understand blew up Eric and Nicole’s wedding. I know Bell. I didn’t he leave Chloe and Mexico with some drug lawyer Bell? He did. He did all that stuff and I’m aware of it. I mean, wow. Kristen just must have pushed Chloe way too far.

Yeah. Chloe must just see something in Xander that. We don’t.

Thank you. Well, I could certainly use another weed drown. How about you? Ah, yeah. A glass of wine sounds really nice. Wine, eh? That sounds even better. Well, you just relax and I’ll turn bar. How about that? Yeah, thank you. I just hand you this. Oh, thanks. You know, I still can’t go over how sketchy Justin was acting tonight.

Yeah, I know you didn’t stop talking about it the entire way home. Sorry. Should I take that to mean that you are sick of me banging on about my family and they’re strange behaviors? No, I like you talking about your family. It lets me get to know the real you and that’s something you want to know the real me?

Yeah, it is.

Can I ask you a question? Are you sure that you want sleep alone tonight?

No. Oh, Sarah, no. No, no, no. Wait, what’s the problem? It’s not like this hasn’t happened before. I know, but. This is different.

It’s me. Okay. Wow. You’re afraid to see me without any clothes on. What? Are you kidding me? Hey, you were the most beautiful pregnant lady that ever was. Well then, what’s the problem? I saw your face when you found out about Xander and Chloe. I don’t care about that. I was, I was just surprised. I thought that Chloe had better taste as all that.

Hey, come on, it’s me. You were nuts about the guy. And look, I haven’t exactly made it a secret that I want another chance with you. Why are you pushing me away? I want a real chance, not some. Rebound sex, and that’s what that would be.

You know that don’t you?

Looks like I got here just in time. Oh honey. You go and you brought me my chicken noodle, so of course guaranteed to make you feel better. Here you go. Thank you, honey. Oh, this is gonna fix me right up. I can tell. Mm. I ran into Chloe and Xander at the pub. Oh, please. Oh, please tell me you didn’t spill it about Sarah and the baby.

Only because I gave you my word. Oh, thank God. I just got off the phone with Sarah and she’s so mad at me for telling you. She made me swear that we would not tell Xander about the baby. Like I said, I do not feel good about this. Xander is far from a perfect human being, but he did love Sarah. Oh my God, it’s his baby that she’s carrying.

Believe me, I hear you. And I tried. I tried to convince Sarah to come clean with him. I tried a lot, but she won’t budge you and I have no choice but to do as she says. Oh, I wish I didn’t know about this. I know what you mean. I just hope Sarah’s secret doesn’t blow up in our faces.

You were in the kitchen for quite a while. Yeah, I was, uh, I was loading the dishwasher.

I know you’re upset with me.

Um, I just, uh, I just don’t understand why Alex’s, uh, feelings should factor into whether or not I take the job. It’s just. He tried really hard to make it work with Maggie, and she fired him without even giving him a chance. And, but how was that my problem? Or yours? I mean, he, he’s a, he’s a big boy. He can handle himself.

Uh, you, you don’t always have to worry about him. I don’t always worry about him. Okay. I just meant that, you know, he landed on his feet. He got a good job at Basic Black. I don’t understand what the problem is. I hate the optics. Chad, first you take Alex’s girl. Next you might end up with his job. No, no, no.

I didn’t. I didn’t. I didn’t take his girl. You’re your own woman, and unless I’m mistaken, you made your own decision about who you wanted to be with. True.

It’s just I’m, I don’t know. I still feel weird about this offer, and it’s not only because of Alex. Okay, then what else? It’s Maggie. It’s like she’s completely changed since Victor made her the c e o. How so? She fired Alex because he lost that Kassoff deal, but it wasn’t his fault. Kassoff had second thoughts.

It happens. Who’s to say that she won’t do the same thing to you?

I would hate to see her kick you out on that fine ass of yours.

Well then I guess, uh, I guess it’s fine. I asked is just gonna have to be better at staying on her good side than he was. Right. Well, I don’t have to make a decision right now. It’s not what Maggie said. Well, Maggie, uh, Maggie’s gonna have to wait. That’s all. And, and honestly, right now, I’d rather. I’d rather not be, uh, talking about Maggie or, um, or work at all for that matter.

I’d rather be looking at possible dream houses for you, me and the kids, he’s okay. Yeah, yeah. Well, sounds good and lucky for real good PR lady never leaves her house with our laptop.

Oh, hello, Alex. Hi, Maggie. I thought you should know that I found someone to take your spot at Titan. Mm, really? Really? I didn’t want you to read about it in a spectator. How decent of decent w. You know what, Alex, you’d get along a whole lot better in this world if you didn’t have that chip on your shoulder.

No, you fired me. All right, so I don’t need all the self-help bull. Mm mm Nope. Nope. Not doing that. Aren’t you gonna ask me who I found? Well, congratulations on finding your ideal number two. Hopefully now we can both move on with our lives. It’s Chad.

Good for him. I thought he was working for Stephanie. Oh, he is. He is. But uh, he’s gonna take some time to think about my offer, but I think he’ll accept it. He and Stephanie will see enough of each other now that they have decided to move in together. I’ll see you back at the house,

not if I don’t see you first.

Wow. Xander and Chloe are living together. I just, oh, I’m so sorry, Brady. I know how much you love Chloe.

Yeah, well there’s not much I can do about it, so it’s pretty much over. I don’t wanna dwell on it. Okay. Okay, I get that. I understand. Dwell on you. Let’s dwell on you, sis. Tell me how you’re doing not great. Sean. Is he still drinking? Well, yeah, I mean, he’s either staring off into space or sleeping one off.

I can’t tell he he needs help. Yeah, I know, but he doesn’t see it that way. Especially after Victor laid into him. Yeah. I love my granddad, but I’ll tell you what he can, he can really make a bad situation worse sometimes. Mm-hmm. Do you want me to talk to Sean? You know, I’ve been where he is. I know. Thank you for offering and I might take you up on that.

Okay. Not now though. Well, right now I’m trying to get him to make an appointment with mom. He just says he’s not ready. You know, he’s just swimming in guilt and, and he jinks his dad’s in a coma because of him. But the fact that he was saving his mother’s life when he shot Bo, that doesn’t even register.

Yeah. I’m so sorry about that. Ugh. All right, I gotta go. Okay. Um, let me know if you hear consistent. I will. And, um, listen, Brady, what I know. That you think things are over between you and Chloe. All right. But I really think that you should try and hang on. She is gonna see Xander for who he really is, cuz everybody does.

Okay. Bye. Okay, thank you.

Came on too strong, didn’t I? No, I, I just. I thought I was ready to move on with my life, but I don’t think that’s possible. Not quite yet anyway. Right. You have a new place, new job, but you’re still not over. Brady.

Trust me. I want to be over him, but I’m just not yet. And. Sandra, I don’t, I don’t wanna lead you on. No, I understand. I mean, if I’m being dead honest with myself, I am still missing Sarah. Aren’t we a fine, fair?

So what do we do in the meantime? Keep getting to know each other. Take our time. I like the sound of that. Maybe there’s something on telly. Ah, okay. Just no love stories. No, definitely not. How about an action adventure with a creepy villain who gets what’s coming to him in the end? That kinda hits a little close to home for me, so, okay.

Fair enough. Um, the Marx Brothers, perfect.

You are right. I was using you to forget my problems and I am. I am so sorry cuz that’s the last thing I wanna do. Can I point out though that most guys, including me, wouldn’t mind being used in that particular way, but with you, I, I want it to mean something. It’s okay.

Do you know how much I wish I was over Xander? You know how much I wish that too.

I hate that what he does with his life still gets to me. I know. But look, all you know is that Xander and Chloe are just living together. Doesn’t mean they’re sleeping with one another. And who cares what Bonnie thinks? I mean, her word is not exactly gospel. Sandra isn’t the kind of guy that lives with somebody that he isn’t sleeping with.

He.

All right, I’m gonna go because we are both on duty early tomorrow.

Good night. Good night. Hey, um, the second you get over Xander, you know where to find me.

Here, lemme get you some more. Mm-hmm. I felt better already.

And notice tonight that Xander and Chloe seemed happy together. Yeah. Huh. Maybe she’ll be a good influence on him. Like you were for me. I wonder if Brady knows about them. Poor guy.

Words.

You wishing you.

Chloe, have I told you recently how much I adore?

See your lascivious. That’s even better than

and also,

Words can’t describe this

feeling inside. Every time

you.

I,

I.

One day,

one moment will change my life.

I.

See how things.

Open your eyes.

I.

Open.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hi. Hi. How’s uh, how’s Doug feeling? Well, I’m getting him some chicken soup. And he insisted it was fine for him to come downstairs and eat the soup in front of the big tv and I insisted, no, he’s still recovering from the flu and he should stay put and have the soup upstairs in bed. Uhhuh, I can guess who won that argument.

It wasn’t easy. Oh, thank you so much for spending time with him earlier. There’s nothing he loves more than a good game of gin rummy. Yeah, we, I mean, like I told him, there’s, there’s nobody I would rather spend time with. No, I’m grateful he took his mind off Abraham for a little while. Oh. And he lifted my spirits as he always does.

I’m so glad. So, um, what are your plans this evening, darling? I noticed you set out the good silver and the good napkins. Well, um, if it’s, uh, if it’s okay, I was, uh, hoping to have Stephanie over for dinner. There’s our baby girl. Hi. The, uh, the Juneteenth celebration was just incredible food, music. Oh. If only the hospital hadn’t had that emergency, I would’ve loved to have gone.

You were missed both of you. Yeah. Well, John and I didn’t wanna let up on the search for Abe. Abe was supposed to give the keynote speech and Theo stepped in for him. He did such a great job. I bet he did. This whole thing is so horrible. I mean, who on earth would wanna kidnap Abe baby? That’s what we’re all trying to figure out.

What is it? Who, what is it? Um, it’s Alex. Oh, is everything okay? Yeah. Fine. He just, um, was sharing some good news. Yes. We just did that. We just did that and I just sent the signed contract off to legal. Which means we are officially in business Basic Black with Yuri Casas. No. Good job man. Good job. Hey, it’s all you man.

Drinks on me. Ah, drinks yeah, drinks on me. No bueno, Alex. Ah, right. Yeah, I’m sorry about that. That’s my bad. Well, how about we, um, I don’t know, split a play of nachos wings. Hey, whatever the hell you want. I just know I’m in way too good of a mood to go home right now, and it’s not like anybody’s waiting on us.

Right. Yeah, definitely not. Oh, I’m so tired. Oh, yesterday I had that great ad buy from Saxtons and then today at least a dozen of our vendors are asking us to cut their rate by 20%. Well don’t worry, I managed to hold them off at least until our numbers for next quarter come hopefully Gwen’s exclusive with dirt bag on Lo snow Drive our numbers up.

Ah, I hope so. Me too. I mean, I just had to. Promise our two top reporters are raised so they wouldn’t jump ship. I bet you’re regretting not taking that job at Titan. Rightly, and even the worst day of the Spectator is still a day I get to spend with you. Yeah, and there it is. The patented Sander Cook charm, which has convinced me to ignore all the reasons why pursuing a relationship with you is a horrible idea.

And yet here I am. What can I say? It’s a blessing and a curse. Okay, back to work for one second. Are you sure that Maggie’s not truly upset that you turned her down? I mean, yeah, she was disappointed, obviously, but she knows I have to fall in my heart. Are you sure about that? About Maggie? Yeah, I know. It’s just when I went over there to talk to her, I had the strangest encounter with Bonnie.

Oh,

I thought you could use a fresh supply. Thank you, honey. Go. That is some cold you have. It seemed to have come outta nowhere. No, I told you it’s God’s way of punishing me for lying. No, no. That’s not how it works. And you know that besides, all you did was pretend you were sick. That’s not all I did. I told like a zillion lies.

God, Justin. It just kept on yapping and yapping and digging myself in deeper. I really didn’t mean to. I mean, it just sand her short off and I panicked. You’re caught off guard. You weren’t expecting to see him. No. Please don’t use that word expecting it. Just reminds me of the secret Sarah’s wanting me to keep, but honey, it just makes me panicky.

Okay, sweetheart. Xander’s not here. Yeah, but he could come back and I could mess up everything. I could crack under this pressure and tell him Sarah’s pregnant with his kid.

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

Is it okay for you to invite Stephanie here to dinner? More than Okay. You know, I like her so much. Oh, well, you know, she feels the, the same way about you, you know, you and Doug. It, um, our talk yesterday in the cemetery, it, it really did help. You’re right. Guilt is corrosive. And, and Abby wouldn’t want me to shut myself off to the world.

She would, she would want me to live my life. Yeah. She would darling. And

thank you. Just you, you know, for your wisdom and for everything you’ve done for, for me and the kids and helping out. And I, I just, I, I, I really don’t know what I would do without you guys. Well, Doug and I feel the same way about you having, having you here with your children. It’s a comfort. It’s been wonderful.

We love you. We love you kids too.

Hello Doug. Let me in. Hi, is he in the Dan in front of the big tv. Yeah, I think so. Uhhuh, well, a few darlings will, excuse me. I will just get ahold of my naughty husband and put him back into bed. Enjoy your dinner. I hope I’m not too late. No, no, you’re right on time.

So neither of us are having much luck with the ladies at the moment, but at least things are going damn well between you and I. That’s a big comfort. I’m serious man. We may be family, but after all the fighting, Sonny and I did a Titan. There is no guarantee this was gonna work out. I know it’s still early and we just landed Yuri freaking Kana about the gate.

Are you kidding me? I think this is the beginning of a very long, successful partnership, Alex. It could be. Or in a couple months we end up trying to kill each other. Who knows? Dude, the pessimism. My God. You’re right. You’re, listen. I’m so, don’t take it personally. Okay. Just lay lately, being hopeful about anything hasn’t worked out for me.

I’m just constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop.

We need to talk now.

You had a strange encounter with Bonnie. Isn’t every encounter with that woman strange? Now this was stranger than usual. How so? Well, she was nervous, like super jumpy, scared. Really? When I walked in, she screamed at me to stay back and then ran behind the couch. Well, maybe she has a little bit of PTs. D From that time you held her prisoner in the garden.

She, yeah, I mean, obviously that’s what I thought too, but no, Bonnie assured me that she’s forgiven me for all that. Then why would she tell you to stay away? Well, her excuse was that she had some terrible cold and she didn’t want me to catch it.

So after you left to go meet with your client, I gave myself this pep talk, you know, I said, body girl, you got this. You just gotta steer clear as Xander. And I turned around. Boom. There he was. You must have been surprised. Surprised. No, I was terrified. God. It was like being in a horror film where you’re peeking around the corner looking for the killer and you turn around and he is been behind you the whole time.

God, I was so shocked to see Zander there. I, I just, I couldn’t think straight. I, I just, the more kept trying not to tell him what I knew. The more it got closer to blurting it out, it was like I was a pressure cooker ready to blow, you know? I’m just so glad I have a release valve. What’s that? Oh honey, you, if I wasn’t able to tell someone I’d be climbing the damn walls, I am just so grateful.

You don’t have a problem keeping Sarah Secret. You know, actually Bonnie, I do.

So Bonnie may have reacted a little over the top, but maybe she was trying to be considerate and try not to get you sick. Yeah. But that wasn’t really even the weird part. It wasn’t, no, no. As I was leaving, I found out that Nicole was pregnant. I got a news alert on my phone and when I read it, I went, oh wow, she’s pregnant.

And Bonnie replied with, she told you she’s pregnant. Why would Bonnie think that Nicole would tell you personally that she’s pregnant? Right? I mean, everyone knows Nicole and I aren’t exactly pal’s, honestly, I, I got the impression that Bonnie thought I was talking about someone else.

You have a problem keeping Sarah’s secret. Why didn’t you tell me this before? Well, you didn’t gimme a chance. You just handed me a dollar. So we’d have attorney client privilege. No, wait. Hang on, hang on. I filled you in and told you we had to keep this between us, and then Maggie interrupted us. But after she left, you didn’t say a word.

You kissed me and went off to your meeting. And in fact, we talked on the phone later and you seemed like everything was fine. I know, but I’ve had some time to think. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Justin, please, please. You gotta stick with me on this. Just like you stick with your clients, you keep their confidences, and I bet they have secrets way worse than this.

Well, that may be, but those secrets don’t involve my cousin. Are we feeling bad for Xander? Are we forgetting what he did to me? No, I’m still very upset with him, but that doesn’t mean that I’m okay with keeping life-changing information from him. Justin, I made a promise to Sarah. I know you did, but I didn’t and I just don’t feel comfortable knowing that Sarah’s pregnant with Sander’s baby and he doesn’t know

you ordered pizza. I did. Garlic and jalapeno from me. Mushroom for you, baby. I thought we were having leftovers. No, no, no. I decided we can’t have leftovers today because we’re celebrating. Celebrating what? Having the house.

Thanks for inviting me to dinner. What? You don’t have to thank me then allow me to express my gratitude on behalf of my parents between us. I think they’re very glad to have some alone time. What, no, you lived in Seattle for years. I’m sure they’re thrilled to have you at home. Oh, living in Salem is one thing that living under the same roof is something else.

Is there tension? No, not at all. But they’ve hardly had a chance to reconnect since we got back from Greece. You know, after all those months of thinking my mom was dead, the way they look at each other, I’m starting to feel like a third wheel. Wow. Yeah. Tmmi. Oh, no. Yeah, a little, sorry. I’m just, I’m starting to think that maybe it’s time for me to look for my own place.

You know what’s funny is I, I was thinking the exact same thing on Maggie. Hey, is everything okay? I don’t know. You tell me. Did you just make a deal with Yuri Koff? Yeah. Yeah, we did. We’re actually launching a brand new digital fashion line on his app. What about it? Well, up until a few weeks ago, he was ready to make a deal featuring exclusive Titan content.

On that very same app.

Well, you should know, Alex. You blew the whole thing. Did you do this on purpose? Excuse me? Well, I was in Greece with Victor and I let you take that meeting with Fury. Your one job was to get him to sign that contract. And somehow he didn’t. And ever since, I’ve been wondering how you managed to botch such a simple task, and now I know you did it on purpose.

What are you talking about, auntie? Why would I do that? You had Brady’s job offering your back pocket, so tanking that deal. What was your way of giving the middle finger to tighten on your way out the door? Maggie? Maggie, I, I did not. Bring Alex on until after you fired him. And besides that, is that really who you think I am?

That I am just some snake that would intentionally hurt my own family? Well, you had to know that working for the competition, basic black would hurt us. I needed a job. I offered to hire you back. You turned me down and you joined the competition. Why? Because you were angry at Victor. He passed you over.

You were resentful of me for being my number two. So your parting shot at us was intentionally screwing up that deal. Did it ever occur to you that maybe I’m not the reason why Yuri walked away. If I was auntie, why would he still wanna work with me? Hmm. I’ll tell you why. It’s because when he finally looked into Titan, he realized there was a dinosaur.

Now this guy’s moving at the speed of light. Meanwhile, you’re telling him to be patient and prudent. He doesn’t want any part of that. This guy wants to slay right now. Is that so? That is, damn. So. And he can’t slay Jack with a relic like Titan Auntie for the past. We are the future. So with that being said, the.

The question you should be asking is not whether or not I tanked the deal between Yuri and Titan more so how could you ever have thought that Yuri would actually wanna make a deal with a loser like Titan to begin with?

How dare you insult me like that. Uh, I was talking about Titan. Titan isn’t a loser. Our profits are up. Our shareholders couldn’t be happier. Hmm. Now, auntie, what is the average age of those shareholders? Oh, no, no, no, no. Don’t you go there. I’m just being honest with you. Yuri doesn’t wanna deal with gray suits and gray hair.

He wants energy. Oh yeah. Like all that energy you put into tagging the deal. Auntie Mag, you can blame me all you want for Yuri deciding not to work with Titan, but he did that all on his own. You are not the right person to bring his vision to life. And he told you that? Oh yes, that’s right. After that meeting where you sabotaged me.

Oh, yes, yes. Up until that point, he was thrilled to be signing with Titan because he didn’t do his homework. When he did, he realized that your company was all wrong for him, and that is the truth. That is a fact, and I’m sorry if you can’t accept that. What I can’t accept is you being an insufferable.

Disloyal swine who sold a company and a client from us, Maggie? I don’t think that’s what Alex was doing. You fired me. Maggie. Do you think that I have any type of obligation to your company? No. And what about your obligation to Victor? What do you think you’d think of what you did? I think he’d admire the initiative.

Oh, so now you are admitting that you did the tanking on purpose? I’m admitting that I saw an opportunity and I took it, and I think Uncle Vic of all people would never have a problem with that. And what about you, Brady? Do you have a problem with it? Did knowing that Yuri had a deal in the works with Titan?

Give you pause. Actually, this is the first time I’m hearing about this. That being said, Maggie? Um, I agree with Alex. I don’t think Victor would be upset with him or me.

He would be upset that you both have treated me so disrespectfully. No, no, no, no, no, no. Victor would be the first one to say business is business. Maggie. We are rivals in business. Yeah. And maybe if you two aren’t always so busy firing us, Karakas, we wouldn’t work for the competition.

Who did Bonnie think was pregnant? Well, she claimed that she was talking about Nicole too, and then she had a massive coughing fit and the conversation was basically over until I mentioned you. What about me? Well, I said that we were involved and she got super interested, started asking all these questions and basically freaked out.

What do you mean? Well, she demanded that I end things and you know, said I was making a huge mistake. Oh God. That goes all the way back to high school. In high school. Yeah. In high school. I had this rivalry with her daughter Mimi, which I’m the one who should be holding a grudge about, by the way. But, um, because of her daughter, Bonnie’s never been a great fan of mine.

Yeah. But her reaction was really extreme, even taking that into account. Yeah. But she’s silly. She probably thought she was protecting you or something. Trust me, this has everything to do with Mimi. I don’t know. I think maybe it has more to do with Sarah.

Justin. I know Xander is your cousin, but come on. Not just that, it’s that I was in the very same position that Xander’s in now, and Angelica, when she was pregnant with Alex, she kept that from me and that was wrong. Look, I’m sorry she did that to you, but Angelica was creating nutcase. Sarah’s not Justin.

She has legit reasons for not wanting XR to know. I understand that. But secrets have a way of coming out, especially ones about babies and Sarah of all people should be sensitive to that. I hear you. Believe me. I hear you. But at the end of the day, Justin, this is not my secret to tell. And I only know that Sarah’s pregnant because I ran into her in Chicago and she made me swear.

Swear not to tell anyone, please, Justin. Are you gonna tell Sandra,

I know you gave Sarah your word, but I didn’t. Oh, you’re my wife and I love you, so I will not tell, but I don’t feel good about this. Yum. Mm-hmm. You good? Mm. Even better than I remember it. Although it’s not hard to recall the last time that we had pizza from Brunos. Yeah, the day in the hospital when I almost died the first time.

Crazy. Why that day was a nightmare. Yeah. It seemed like it was never gonna end. Yeah, going from helpless and hopeless to relieved and elated and completely destroyed, those were hands down the worst days of my life. Mine too, and I thank God every day that you came back to me. I can’t believe how lucky I am.

I think it’s more than luck. You worked so hard to find me. Yeah. Who would’ve thought we’d be reunited in the wine cellar of Victor car’s child at home? By boat of all people.

John and I started out trying to find Megan Hathaway on that creek island. No idea you were even alive A few days later. You were in my arms. I think it shows the power of our love no matter what separates us or what odds we’re against, somehow we always find our way back to each other. Yes, we do baby always.

So you’re thinking about moving out too? Are you surprised? No. It’s just, I I thought you liked living here. Yeah, no, I, I, I do. And yeah, I’m, I’m beyond grateful for Doug and Julie, but I mean, there’s, there’s no way I could have gone back to the Mansion after, and, and, you know, the kids and I, we would’ve had love and support.

But I, I, I just, you know, I didn’t wanna be surrounded by all those memories and here, you know, we get so much love and support, but No, I, I totally understand. Yeah. And, you know, besides we, uh, we have a living babysitter, so that’s, that’s very helpful. No, I’m sure Doug and Jill have loved having Charlotte and Thomas here.

Yeah, for sure. But you know, they can be a handful. And, um, and I’m sure that’s, that’s wearing on them. Um, and they would never say anything. So I think it’s, uh, you know, I think it’s, it’s time for me to, uh, initiate and, and probably find a, a place, a fresh start for me and the kids. Yeah. No, I, I think that makes total sense for you to look for your own place.

Yeah. You know, or, um, or we could, we could find a place together.

Did you just ask me to move in with you? Um, yeah, I mean,

uh, that’s not such a crazy idea, is it? Uh, and we, we, we, we both wanna find a new place and, um, and mean we spend most nights together anyway. I know. But the, we work together and if we also live together, yeah. But I, I, I want to go to bed with you every night and wake up next to you every morning, and that sounds wonderful.

What about the kids? The kids are crazy about you. The feeling is mutual. Obviously. This is a really big step. I just, I, I worry that they would think that I’m trying to replace their mother. No, look,

how about this? Um, I’ll talk to the kid’s therapist and, and if, um, if she thinks that, That it’s something that they’re ready for, then I’ll, I’ll find a way to talk to the kids about it. Sounds good. Everybody and the kids would be psyched. What do you mean? They could have a dance party with you whenever they want.

It’d be amazing. No, I, you know, I always love a dance party. Yeah.

Okay. So then if the, if their therapist says, Says yes, and then the kids are happy about it, then, then, then maybe you would be too. I, I would be very happy about it. Is that a yes? Yes. Yes, Chad? Yeah. I would love to move in with you.

If you don’t slow down, you’re gonna eat that whole pizza. All right. I’m gonna eat this whole pizza. It’s impossible to stop. Impossible. Mm-hmm. Don’t believe me. Try a slice. Oh, jalapeno and uh, garlic. No thank you. No, no. Listen, baby. I’m telling you it’s the perfect combination. No, it’s too spicy. Oh, let me tell you something.

The cheese balance is out. The heat. All right. Trust me. It’s a very complex flavor profile. Did you just say flavor profile? Well, yeah, I’ve, um, I’ve been binging Top Chef on Peacock. It’s really expanded my culinary horizons. So, yeah. Mm-hmm.

Pru it.

You want me to eat fungus pizza special, and it’s delicious. I can. Oh, well maybe your horizons aren’t as expensive as you thought.

I’ll try yours. If you try mine.

I’m so sorry, Justin. I never meant to put you in such a tough position. It’s an awful position. If it’s any consolation, which it’s. Probably not. I feel bad for keeping this from Xander too. I just hope when this all comes out, which it will. It doesn’t get too complicated. Well, it might. Xander has a new girlfriend.

He does. Who? Chloe Lane. When did that happen? Just recently. And apparently it’s getting pretty serious. Wait, so Bonnie’s upset that you’re dating me because of Sarah. Right. She’s said it would hurt her feelings. Why? I mean, you and Sarah are divorced. Yeah, I mean, I reminded Bonnie of that and I had to tell her, you know, Sarah has no interest in what I’m up to.

She’s too busy getting busy with Rex Brady. Is that true? Actually, according to Bonnie, no. How would she know? She ran into Sarah when last week she was in Chicago visiting Mimi. Oh, well, I mean that, that explains it. Sarah’s fresh and Bonnie’s kooky little brain. She’s pretending to be concerned about her feelings.

Trust me. Give it a day or two. She’ll be freaking out about something else. All right.

Funko Vic has a problem with me working at Basic Black and seizing every opportunity that I can. He can tell me that himself. I’ll be sure and relay the message and I’ll remember what you both said at all as fair and business. Family be damned. Oh, you know what? Just a heads up. My husband has a reputation of being ruthless when it comes to the competition, but believe me, huh?

Yes, I know what it is. I can slay with the best of them.

Don’t let Bonnie get to you. Trust me, I’ve known that woman since I was a teenager and she’s always been a little off. Well, I mean, I’ve gotten to know Bonnie a little bit over the last few years and trust me this was off even by her stance. But you know what? I’m going to follow your wonderful advice and not worry about it.

Cause I am actually rather content right now. Hmm. That makes two of us. Hmm.

Wait, wait. Did I just hear your stomach growl? Well, in addition to being content, I am actually rather hungry. Mm-hmm. That makes two of us. But there’s no food in this house. Since we both started working, we’ve kind of neglected the grocery shopping duties so. What do you wanna do for dinner? I, I, we too content, but hungry people are going out.

Sandra and Chloe, not two people that I ever guessed were dating, not just dating, living together. You’re kidding me. I told you things were moving fast, Justin. It makes me wonder whether I. Neither Xander would be slamming on the brakes if he knew Sarah was pregnant with his kid. Well, he doesn’t know, and we’ve agreed not to tell him.

So there’s no point in speculating. Can’t help it. Well, are you saying that you think we should tell Xander? No, no, no, no, no. I made a promise to Sarah and I have to. I have to keep it. There you go. There you go. Take these. Take these. I’ll be right back. Oh gosh. Where are you going? I’m going to the pub to get you some chicken soup.

Oh. Guaranteed to hit the spot. Hurry back please. I’ll be right back. Maybe some brandy too.

So what do you think? Um, it’s interesting. How’s yours? Interesting. Yeah. You sure? You don’t wanna take a sip of that cold beer? No, no, no. I’m, I’m fine. Well, your eyes are watery. There’s no shame in admitting this. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.

How do you eat that? My mouth is on fire. Yeah. Here. Yes, it is. An acquired taste. Mm, yeah. Well, you acquired a taste for mushroom. No, sorry. Sweetness. I guess we’re gonna have to order two different kinds of pizza from now on. Well, it’s kinda like marriage, you know. Sometimes you agree. Sometimes you have to compromise, and sometimes you just have to let the other person do what they want.

I guess the trick is knowing when to do which. I think we got that down. We definitely do baby.

Get another sip of beer.

Can you believe Maggie? Showing up here acting like I’m some kind of a traitor. You are a liar, Alex. What? You weren’t straight with me, man. What do you mean? I wasn’t straight with you, Brady. I told you Maggie fired me because she thought I botched some kind of major deal. Alex, she didn’t mention that the deal had anything to do with Yuri Kassoff.

Okay. Even when you suggested that we go after his business, that is a liable mission. I didn’t think it mattered. Look, if this is gonna work. You can’t withhold any information from me, none clients deals. You gotta tell me everything. Understood. Why didn’t you just tell me that you had met with Yuri when you were with Titan?

I don’t know, man. I I just figured that if you knew the history, maybe you wouldn’t want to go along with it. Well, imagine that. Alright, look, if you think this is a bad idea, I’ll call Yuri right now and I’ll tell him that we’re backing out. I’ll do it right now.

Well, I am gonna put the rest of mine in the refrigerator so that I can have it from breakfast tomorrow. You know, that’s one of the advantages of not eating the entire pizza on a single night. What’s up?

I’m just thinking about Paulina Stephanie said, and how she couldn’t bring herself to go to the Juneteenth celebration without Abe. I know. So sad.

You know, she was over here last night to see how John and I were doing with the search. Poor woman’s going out of her mind and we had nothing to give her. You will, you are going to bring Abe home and to be without him today must be torture for her. For both of them. Yeah. We both know how hard it is to be apart from the person that you love, especially on your anniversary

all that time. I thought I’d lost you. I was sure I’d never see you again.

And here we are. Devin, a pizza party. I’ll say it again. I can’t believe how lucky I am. You’re both lucky and I am never. I’m gonna take you or our family, or our future for granted. I won’t either. Have I told you tonight how much I love you? You don’t have to tell me, baby. I know.

I love you too. Sweetness.

Alex put the phone down. So you don’t want me to call off the deal? No, I don’t. I What about Maggie? I love Maggie. I care about Maggie. But like I told her, this is business and she wouldn’t expect me to pull out of a deal just to spare her feelings. And besides, we worked our asses off for this. That is exactly what I wanted to hear.

So how about those nachos? Huh? I wouldn’t go celebrate in just yet. Why not? We won. We won the first round. This might be a long fight. You saw Maggie’s face. She’s pissed. I mean, what do you think she’s gonna do? I don’t know, but I know one thing. She’s not gonna take this line down.

You, um, you ready for some dessert? Oh, that depends what’s on the menu. Why don’t you come over here and find out? Oh, uh, Julie, let me in. I’m so sorry to interrupt. No, no, no. Not at all. We were just about to have dessert. Would you like to join? Uh, no thank you. I can’t say. I just, I just came to ask you a question.

Um, okay. Ask away. How would you like to come and work for me at Titan?

So what looks good to you? Everything. Oh, now it’s okay.

Um, Justin, long time no see. Sandra, Hey, you, uh, here for Bite, are you? Uh, no, no. I’m, uh, just here to grab some takeout. Oh, well, why don’t you grab a chair and sit with us while you wait. No, I can’t do that. I’m, uh, I’m in a hurry. I, no, don’t be ded. I’m c crazy. Geez. Come pull up a chair and tell us everything that’s been going on with you.

Oh

damn.

Okay.

Sarah, Hey, uh, it’s body Carus. The reason I call you is that. We need to talk. Look, uh, the thing is, as hard as I’m trying, I, I don’t know if I can keep your secret.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

You know what I was thinking? I was thinking we have one of those beautiful chocolate fountains. Oh. And for the first dance. How about that Amazing Ed Shean song shape of you. It’s my favorite. Anyway. Hey. Hello. Sorry, I, uh, stop thinking about ej. Yeah, well I was trying to distract you, but I guess it didn’t work.

It’s strange how he just disappeared. You think he’s trying to make some kind of end run behind her back? Highly likely. Look, EJ is always up. Something sketchy, as you won’t know. In fact, we should probably be using this time to plan our counter attack. Such as? Such as using his curious absence to make inroads with Megan.

You know, when I ran into her earlier, she said she was still considering our proposal to team up. Oh yeah. It’ll be like gates and Jobs all over again. You don’t believe her, huh? Are you? You leave her Stephan. Are you kidding me? Your sister’s as subtle as a shark attack. Is it not ridiculously obvious that she has her own agenda?

So Lee, have you touched base with the good Dr. Rolfe? Well hurry up. It’s not like we can hire a cruise ship hypnotist to Brainwash Commander Michaels. Now, can we. No, I haven’t decided yet exactly when and where or how, but just that my brother Stephan’s extinction needs to take place at exactly the right time.

Look, stop worrying. Kristen and AJ are locked away nicely. Some tight in the secret room downstairs. There’s absolutely no way they can sabotage.

How’s big mama holding up? Oh, she’s fine now. She’s just taking a little lie down. She’s bone tired from a trip. Yeah, she was saying it was a rough life across the turbulence. Not to mention that she hates flying no matter what the. Well bless her heart for making the effort to come all this way. Yeah, she sure surprised me.

I had no idea she was coming, but you know, maybe it’s a good thing. Maybe it’s good that she’s resting cuz I sure don’t like the idea. Fold the pieces right in front of her. I’m not sure how much I can even hold it all together. Mama, we’re all here for you, Paulina. Oh, I know. And we are all praying for Abraham Darling.

I know. I appreciate that. I know you are. I know you are. Uh, but it’s just that. The longer he’s missing with no, you know, no word from and no way to reach him. Where, where, where God’s name could he be?

Why would you say such a thing of, of course, I’m your wife. Are you feeling discombobulated? Do you wanna rest a little while? I feel perfectly fine except for the fact that you have been lying through your teeth. Darling, why would you say such a thing? I just had a memory from the wedding jumping the broom with the bride in that bride.

Definitely wasn’t. You

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

Leah have to go.

Who the hell are you? I’m Leo Stark, also known by my adoring fans. This lady whistleblower. And you must be Megan Hathaway, also known as Megan Demara. What were you doing in my tunnels? Well, I was going to take the front door, but I knew Harold would never be so kind as to let me in, so I came the back way.

Well, I hope you haven’t helped yourself to our valuable wine collection while you’re down there. I’m more of a banana daiquiri kind of guy, so no, I came straight up to see you. Me the poor. Well, there is a lovely British reporter named Gwen Rizek, who happens to be my best friend, and I happen to know that you and your dastardly son are using her as a pawn in some sort of evil scheme.

But I have news for you, Megan Hathaway, or Demira, or whatever the hell you’re calling yourself these days. You are not going to get away with it. Not if Leo Stark has anything to say about it.

And, um, Hmm. How exactly did this happen? Uh, well, I distinctly remember you kissing me and then.

I’m so sorry, Glen. I hate to do this, but, um, I’ve been waiting on this, this business text.

Is it important? Seeing your beautiful eyes and having just felt your lips on,

I just can help. I

I didn’t take it to four.

No, no. I would’ve let you know if. Obviously the feelings were regretted,

but this, this can’t happen again.

Thank you so much, Julie, for stopping by, for bringing my darling son-in-law with you. I want you to know that Doug and I are standing by for you anytime, anything you need. I appreciate that. And Eli, I want you to know that I sleep, you know, better at night for a little, a little better anyway, knowing that you’re on the case.

Yeah. I told Lonnie that we’d find a, and I don’t intend on letting her down. Oh, thank you so much for taking care of my baby girl. I know, I know. How hard things have been over the past year for you both. Yeah, it’s, it’s definitely been tough. The twins and I, we hate being separated from Lonnie, but. Well, we’re managing as best as we can.

Mm. So sorry that the situation just pulled you away from my precious little jewels and carver. No, it’s okay. I can use the break. Oh, I’m no, but look, I, I don’t intend on being here too long. Like I said, we’re gonna find Abe no matter what it takes. Oh, oh, oh.

Well, if it wasn’t me, sweetheart, then who was it? It was that woman, the one from my dream. You and your dream girl. You know what? What was it? Was it Shirley, Ralph, or are we talking Beyonce? Neither? Well, I don’t know who’s making guest appearances in these dreams of yours, but clearly you are mixing things up.

It wasn’t a dream. I am telling you. It was memory darling. Dreams and memories. You just, they’re all the same thing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. This was, this was vivid.

I was wary that light blue suit and the bride, bride was wearing a gold dress with, uh, With a black floral pattern. Yes, exactly. That was what I was wearing. But it wasn’t you. Oh, Abraham sweetheart. Of course it was me. Prove it. What? How am I gonna prove it? I don’t. Show me a picture of our wedding.

But Abraham, you saw our wedding photo. My daughter Chanel showed it to you at the hospital, remember? But I had just woken up from surgery and everything was, everything was fuzzy, and that image was pretty hazy. I wanna see it again. Well, I don’t have it on my phone. Just not enough gigabytes at the moment.

So, but we don’t, we don’t have a, a photo album with a wedding around here somewhere. We don’t. It was destroyed. What, how Yeah. And, and a fire. Oh, all of our precious memories just went poof up in smoke. Just like that. You’re telling me that there isn’t a, a single photo left from our wedding? Sadly, no. I’m not a single one.

You know, something’s not right here.

Sophia, tell me about the Juneteenth celebration. Well, everybody was asking about Dad. Oh yeah. They’re all very worried about him. Of course they are. Your dad touched on so many people’s lives. I’m, I’m so glad. I’m proud that you were there to represent him and the family. I wish I could have been there too, but you know, I, I, I just was in no shape to go.

Yeah. Julie said you gave a speech. Darn. My dad was supposed to give. Well, I was surprised to hear, I know how much you hate public speaking. I do, but, um, uncle Chad convinced me to do it. I just hope I didn’t embarrass myself too much. Oh, I’m sure. I’m sure you were wonderful baby. And your father, when he comes home, he be, his heart will be so full hearing that you, you filled in for him.

I hope so. Mm-hmm. Oh, and. I almost forgot. Um, there was this older woman who came up to me after the speech, big supporter of dad’s. She wanted to give me this, she, uh, intended to give it to you too as an anniversary gift, but um, she made it herself. Oh, wow. Kind of her beautiful. She said that I don’t give you strength.

And remind you that no matter how bleak things may seem, never give up hope

or Paulina. She can barely hold it together. Well, that’s understandable. It’s one thing not to be with the person you love, but not to know if they’re dead or alive. I just wish there was more we can do to help her. Oh, you and me both seeing Paulina like this, it just. Breaks my heart. I. I think you mean my heart

evil scheme? I don’t know. I have a clue what you’re talking about. Oh, don’t you play innocent with me, lady. You and I both know that you are using my best friend to launder, your son Dimitri’s soiled reputation that he’s using some kind of hot guy, black magic to manipulate Gwen into writing these glowing pieces about him in the Spectator.

Oh. Is that what you think? I don’t think I know. Look, Mr. Whistleblower, I’ll admit that. I was delighted with your friends ride up onto Dimitri what mother wouldn’t be. People seem to have gotten the wrong idea about him. They think he’s some kind of a monster. He is. He’s like a Bootylicious Voldemort.

Well, I would suspect that your friend Gwen wouldn’t agree with you because he has cast a spell on her hell. It’d probably work on me too. There’s no spell, I assure you. My son is just naturally charismatic and charming. You can’t hold that against him. I can if he uses that charm and charisma to lure my unsuspecting friend into his web of deceit.

Your cynicism is disconcerting, Mr. Stark, not to mention that you’ve got it all wrong. You see Demitri actually enjoyed speaking with the charming Ms. Rizek, and he hopes to spend more time with her in the future. I assure you there’s no hidden agenda.

I, I don’t, I don’t understand. Why can’t it happen again?

Well, um, You and I talked about doing, doing some follow up interviews. Yes. Mm-hmm. And, uh, though I didn’t go to journalism school, I reckon that shagging, your interview subject isn’t really something that you bubbling on a pop quiz, you know? Yeah. No, I’ve probably not. No, I’ve never really been bothered by ethical boundaries myself.

If it is a problem for you, Well, I think I might have an easy solution. No, what’s that? Well, how about we end a professional relationship immediately and pursue a personal one instead.

So by a personal relationship, you mean a romantic one? Yeah. Yeah, that’s exactly what I mean. Gwen, I don’t know about you, but. I have never fallen so deeply, so fast, so hard for someone before. It’s just, um, it’s hard to describe. It’s, um, it’s like a spark, this immediate intense spark that I felt. Yeah. But as you know, I, I, I felt it too.

Um, um, when you told me about your, your upbringing, it was like you were telling me about mine, my story. Um,

I think that, I think that you and I know each other in, in ways that other people don’t really. Yes, yes, that’s exactly it. Yes. There’s something so special between us and I’m suddenly terrified of letting it slip away. And to that end, I think I’m about to ask you something crazy. Crazy. What do you mean crazy?

When risk check

will you marry me?

I hope I’ve addressed your concerns, Mr. Stark, regarding my son’s intentions with your friend, addressed my concerns. How? By bragging that your son is charming, charismatic, and honest to a fault. Well, you didn’t say that, but it was in the subtext and it did nothing to reassure me because A, he’s scary and creepy and so are you, and B, you two are honest, like I’m straight and tall.

Well, I’m sorry you feel that way Mr. Stark, but I’m afraid I can’t spare another minute in all this conversation. So I’m gonna have to ask you to leave. Okay, I’ll go but be warned, Ms. Damira Lady whistleblower is going to be keeping an eye on you. So you and your creepy son had better not do anything to hurt my gny perhaps.

You can use the front door this time, fine. I will. And you know what? I am glad to get away from you because honestly, you give me the Hupy Cheapies, and I know why. You remind me of my mother. She too has only a nodding acquaintance with the truth. Not to mention she’s a conniving bitch on wheels just like you.

Oh, did mommy not tuck you in at night? Didn’t read you any bedtime stories? Don’t think that you have me fooled for a nanosecond, Ms. Mustache twirler. I know that you and your son are up to something. And I am damn welcome to find out what it’s

you. I, uh, I didn’t know you were back in Salem. I’m here to help look for my father-in-law. That’s right. Yes. I heard he was, um, missing this awful, have you heard any sign of him? I didn’t know you cared. Of course I care. Not completely heartless, Julie, speaking of which, I’m glad we ran into you, Julie. It’s good to see that mild ticker is still going strong.

Well, no, thanks to Ms. Hernandez here. Uh, I I, I don’t understand. Isn’t she the one who generously donated my heart to you? Generously. You can’t be serious. Wow. I guess Gabby didn’t fill you in. She used your heart as leverage to get back at Lonnie for shooting you. How so? Look, I can explain. Oh, Alami. First she made Lonnie get down on her knees and beg for it.

Imagine the cruelty of one woman degrading another woman that way, especially a black woman. And then she would never, ever have agreed to the transplant if she hadn’t first made Lonnie swear she was gonna break my grandson’s heart. On his wedding day, then to keep Lonnie in line, she reconstructed the pacemaker in my heart somehow so she could control it from her telephone.

And with the flick of her finger. She could murder me by blowing up my heart. Oh, I, I had no idea she had gone to such extremes himself. You see, even he is disgusted by you. Actually, I, um, I couldn’t be more proud.

Oh, I better head out. I gotta make a pit stop before I head to the Salem end Salem and, oh, no. No way. Just staying right here with us. I thought you guys had a full house. Well, you can take my room and I can sleep at Mama’s. Thank you Janelle. Seriously, guys. It’s fine. Oh, honey, honey, are you sure? We’d love to have you.

No, I’m, I’m sure. Look, I’m gonna be spending most of my time looking for that anyway, so I’ll make sure to stop and as often as I can check in with you guys. Oh, Theo, oh, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m so glad you’re here. Thanks for coming. You don’t need to thank me. A year ago today, we became family, which means that we have to look out for each other.

That’s what, doubt it. What?

I’m sorry, Abraham. I, I wish that I could show you the picture, but unfortunately that doggone fire incinerated our entire album. It’s in the picture on Janelle’s phone. Can’t you send it to you? Uh, I mean, in theory she could. Well, you know, why don’t I call her? May, may I, um, yes. Oh. I bet you I can find the photo on my computer here.

Oh, thank you. Okay, let’s see. Oh, I’m just the empress of digital dust. There’s a lot going on here. This. Folders within folders. I don’t have anything arranged properly. Oh, this lock going, oh, this picture, my trip to Machu Picchu in 22. You know, you know, I, I, I think it’ll be much faster if I just call her.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I think I found one. Um, you did? Yes, I did. Well, the should. Let me see her. You know what? I don’t really like the angle on my face. That’s not my most flattering thing. Just show me the damn picture, Paulina. Okay, fine. Here you go.

Oh my God.

I, I don’t understand. Oh, what’s not to understand, darling, as you can clearly see the bride in the photo is none other than more

my mind must be playing tricks on me guys. That’s the only explanation. That and a little Photoshop. What was that? Huh? Oh, no. Nothing darling. Nothing darling. No. You know, if I’m being honest, the only reason that I was convinced I was right. So I noticed that you don’t wear your wedding ring. Oh. Well, that’s because I leave it at home.

You know what? With all the hand washing that I have to do, I wouldn’t want it to fall down the drain. And so I leave it home and sometimes I forget to put it back on. Can I see it? Uh uh. Sure.

It’s my most prized possession.

Wow. I, uh, I’m so sorry for doubting you, accusing you of not being my wife, especially on our anniversary.

So how can I, how can I make it up to you?

Hle.

I have an idea.

All right. Well done with the dishes. Mama, can I get you anything and a little tea? No. Well, thank you, baby. I’m all right for now. Is that your wedding album? Yeah. And with all this, well, let’s talk about our anniversary. I thought it might be nice. Take a little stroll down memory lane. My goodness. Mama, you were so beautiful that day.

I mean, not that you aren’t every day. Thank you, baby. Oh. Oh, oh, look, that beautiful cake you made for us. You know there’s still a piece in the freezer. Ava and I were supposed to share it today. Oh, mama, you will. Okay. Maybe not today, but, so

what’s this? Oh. Those are Abraham’s vows. That’s a touch button. I should have had somebody personally to fan me down at the altar when he read them. Oh, I just had eight. That’s the copy. I had eight printout for me. His words. They were so heartfelt and the way he delivered them with the that e voice at him, you know, I wouldn’t believe it possible, but I love him even more today than I did back then.

And I wish he was here, so I wish he was here so much so I could tell him that. Oh mama, he knows wherever he is, he knows

you’re proud of Gabby. Proud of her. Humiliating and tormenting and manipulating Alani for over a year in this terrifying way. Lonnie is no saint. She did shoot me in the throat. Your mother was attempting to flee. Lonnie had no choice to fire, and if we being real, it’s your own damn fault for jumping your stupid ass in front of a bullet.

Okay? I do admit that the uh, details are a little fuzzy. That was a very chaotic night, but if I’m not mistaken, that wasn’t the last time Lonnie got in trouble for being a little trigger happy. Isn’t she in prison right now for shooting her own father? Not want a lot of talk after somebody who don’t know what the hell they talking about.

Darling don’t. He’s not worth it. She’s not worth it. They deserve each other. That’s right. We do. And that’s why we’re getting married again. Congratulations for your honeymoon. You can both go to hell.

Oh, father, I suspect you might not like my plans for Stephan, but if it’s any consolation, I’ll do my best to spare Kristen and ej. Then hopefully feeding them well will be a morale boost. Make them less cranky.

Hello? Oh God. I really have to beef up security around here. I’m sorry, I, I hope I’m not interrupting your dinner. Oh my goodness. You are Theo Carver, aren’t you? Lexi’s son. That would be me. Ah, you’re so very handsome. I am your auntie Megan, and it is a real pleasure to finally meet you. You too. So what brings you here?

I’m actually looking for my uncle ej.

Th this, this can’t be happening. I mean, you are, you are joking, right? You’re just having a bit of a laugh, aren’t you? No, no. I’m dead serious, Gwen. I want you to make me the luckiest man on the face of this earth.

I mean, we just met and we, we don’t even know each other. Oh, I know everything I need to know about you. I look at you, you’re insanely beautiful. You’re whip smart. You make me laugh, and uh oh, you’re a maestro in the sheets. What more can men want? This is, this is, this is meant, this is crazy. This is crazy.

Exactly like what she saying. Yes. No, I understand how it might seem that way, but I’ve always been someone who goes after what they want and knows exactly what that is, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Life is too short to dilly dally

if I’m. Understanding correctly.

Are you saying that you love me? You know, I never believed in love at first sight, but I have been proven wrong. Gwen, I have been waiting my entire life for a woman like you to come by and I am not about to let you slip away. No, not like Xander did that idiot. He, he had no idea what he had. He didn’t appreciates you.

Not like I do. God. I do. And I promise you, Glen. I will spend every single last waking moment of my life devoted to making you happy. And all you have to do is say one little word. Yes.

You’re not saying anything can, I’m sorry. I, I just, oh, my heart’s pounding and, uh, adrenaline is pumping walls from my body and the. So Well, there’s no, there’s no words coming to me. It’s ok. I understand. I completely understand. It is not lost on me how spur of the moment, how impulsive this is, but it just feels so right.

Doesn’t it feel the same way for you? I’m not, I’m not sure. Maybe this will give you some clarity.

With a sock. Oh, holy moly. No way. No how I they, they what in the name of RuPaul’s Drag Race is going on? Imagine, didn’t you see the sock? Yeah, I saw the sock, but I was unaware. We were back in the freshman dorms at state, and you are obviously unaware. You just slept with a lying snake who is going to break your heart into a million pieces, and I’m the one who’s gonna have to pick those pieces up.

Not that I mind because as you know, I adore you. But for God’s sake, Gwenny, have we not established that this guy who is staring at me, will you stop staring at me please? You are creeping me out. Is using you for good press? According to you, Madi, that is because I am the only one who has not taken leave of his senses.

Will you listen to me? Dimitri here has put off our scheduled interviews. Okay. What? You heard me? Perhaps the two of you would rather discuss this. In private. No, no. Please don’t go. No, it’s fine.

Do you mind?

Oh, and Gwen, I don’t mean to pressure you, but. Think about what I said.

I’m afraid your Uncle EJ is outta town on business. I’d be happy to take a message if you’d like. Oh, no need. I was just hoping to see him while I’m in town. He sent me a couple messages about my dad and I said I’d hit him up if I came to Salem, so right. Of course, and I heard about your father. I’m terribly sorry.

Have the police found any leads? Not really. We’ll talk about hope. I’m sure that Nana and my daily departed sister are watching over him. Thank you. You know, you’re really not as scary as everybody makes you out to be. Well, you are as plainspoken as everyone says you are, and I like that about you, Theo. I hope to see you around here more often.

I can’t take this anymore. Oh. Well, what can I do for you, mama? Or we could go for a walk, try and get your mind off things. Oh, no, nothing will. Nothing will stop me thinking about my Abraham, what? I already lost my husband. I can’t go through that again. I don’t have the strength. Of course you do, mama. You are strong and brave, and so you have to just try to stay positive, okay?

For yourself and for Abe, because he is out there fighting to get back to you. I just know it.

Oh,

what have I gotten myself into? Abraham baby.

It is such an honor and a privilege to renew our vows on such a blessed day. Uh, shouldn’t we have invited our family? Oh, Abraham, we have our family surrounding us. Well, I, I, I met, I met Chanel and Theo. Um, oh, what’s that you say? Uhhuh. Uhhuh. Oh, thank you. Thank, uh, apparently the invitations never got to them.

Something about. A scared mailman and an attack dog. Oh, but no worries. We will send them the photos. After all, we have to replace the ones that were lost in the fire. Uh, I’m not exactly dressed for the occasion. Uh, you know what I will, uh, I’ll put on that light blue suit that I wore for the wedding. Ooh, the suit burned up in the fire too.

All we could find were your charred cuff links, so, well that’s, that’s a shame. Fires are so indiscriminate, aren’t they? Anyway, gimme a ring.

Miss Caddy LaBelle will hold onto this until we’re ready. Okay. All. Shall we begin?

So you actually slept with Count Dracula. Don’t call him that. Oh, I’m so sorry. You slept with Dimitri. The dastardly. Not that either. Well, whatever. We’re calling the guy. It is truly repulsive. It is nauseating. But also kind of hot, like I wouldn’t not eat an entire roast sashimi off that man’s abs. Mm.

Yeah. I’m sure that you wouldn’t not. So how was it? No, don’t tell me. Okay. Tell me. But say that it lasted all 20 seconds and there’s a weird birthmark. You can’t unsee.

It was incredible. Oh, damnit. It was, wasn’t it? I hate you. Hate him. Okay. Can you just take it down a notch please? Because you’ve given me a pounding headache and I’m, I’m already. Quite wound up and somewhat dazed. Wound up and dazed. Why? Wait, what did that guy who I hate more now than I did before?

Because I am all sorts of jealous that you two had so much fun doing the dirty and I haven’t had that kind of fun in a month of Sundays. But I’m also angry with him because he’s using you. What did he mean earlier? What does he want you to think about? Nothing.

He just asked me to marry him.

Oh, mother. Oh, Dimitri. Hello? Oh, those look good one from me. No, they were, oh. I must have worked a bit of an appetite sleeping the fair, miss Rizek off her feet and into bed. Oh, Dimitri, that’s wonderful. I am so proud of you. Thank you. Although this is a bit of a weird conversation. Even for us to be having.

So don’t ask for any further details. Okay? Just one. Did you pop the question? I did. And let’s just say that, uh, well, we got interrupted, but don’t you worry. I’m sure she’ll have an answer to me soon. And she will undoubtedly say yes because who could say no to that magnificent face? I can practically hear what he bes already, who’s getting married.

Why you too. Of course. I, I was just, um, telling your nephew here that I’ve been planning and thinking, um, and we are gonna throw the two of you an engagement party. Wow. I That’s very generous of you. That is very kind, Megan. Thank you. Absolutely my pleasure. And I promise you, this will be a party that you will never forget me and I, I must apologize to you.

I, I thought I had put that whole ugly episode out of my mind, but when I saw those two crocodiles rising from their pri ordinal swamp, I lost it. I.

I can hardly believe that awful man’s heart is beating in my chest. Grandma, that’s your heart now. That’s why it’s kind, generous, and loving just like you. Thank you, sweetheart. Let’s forget about them. We got more important stuff to think about, like finding Abe and bringing him home to Paulina.

I’m gonna go check on Big Mama. Will you be all right here? Yes. Yes. Fine. And thank you for the pep talk. You sweet girl.

Linda Price. By the time I met you, I had, I had thought that I had experienced the last great love of my life. But every day, every day, you prove that love is not in my past. It’s in my present, and it’s in my future.

Now you say your vow. I, I’m afraid I don’t remember them. Um, okay, no problem. I I got you. I’m

Do you take this luscious woman, Paulina Price to be your lawfully wedded wife in sickness and in health to love and to cherish until death Do you part.

I do.

Oh, yes. Oh, Abraham, you’ve made me the happiest woman on the face of this earth. Again,

I hope to share that love with our children and. Our grandchildren, as long as God blesses me to.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What the hell do you think you’re doing?

Feel. Hey Chad, is it really? You come here. Oh God, it’s so good to see you. Yes, I’m here. I’m really sorry about what’s going on with your dad. Yeah, me too. Thanks. That was ju just with Doug and Julie and. They were asking if I’d heard from you. You know, they’re, they’re upset about your dad. Of course we all are, but it’ll be really comforting to them that you’re here,

darling. You’re not eating, not hungry, but you’re okay. I mean, you’re feeling well. I’m fine physically. I’m fine. I’m just heartsick Doug. We, we just got past the anniversary of Abigail’s death and now this disappearance of Abraham. Yes. So much grief in his family. You know, today is, is Paulina and Abe’s first wedding anniversary.

Juneteenth. Yeah. A day of jubilation. And instead it’s, Hey, I hope y’all don’t mind. I let myself in. Eli. Eli. Good, Eli.

Happy anniversary. Abraham.

Oh dear Lord, please. Please let this be good news,

mama. What on Earth? Why are you here? Why am I here? I’m here because I know you need me.

Sorry, I’m late, babe. I had a cold yellow when I was running out the door. So what you been up to? Well, I was watching those old soap tapes of yours when all of a sudden I remembered something very important. Oh, uh, what do you, what do you mean? What did you remember? Don’t you have something you want to say to me?

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

Ooh, you look so good, handsome, tall, slender. Yeah. You look as though you could use a little home cooked food. I’ll just go make you a plate right now. No, no, grandma, it’s, it’s okay. I don’t, I don’t need to eat right now. Don’t fight it, grandson. It’d be a losing battle. Okay. I’m let, let’s do it. Okay. Thank you.

I’ll be right back. Hey, hey, hey. Hey. Wow, you just got here in time. I was about to break out the chocolate truffles to cheer up your grandma. Hmm. But you are the perfect bomb. Oh, I don’t know. She loves her truffles. So, uh, why didn’t you tell us that you were coming? I wanted it to be a surprise. Ray and I, we’ve been in constant contact about a, but it’s, it’s just hard with me not being here.

So I had a couple days off, so I figured I’d show up and see what I can do to help. Well, you’ve helped already just by being here. Oh yeah, darling. Ooh, thanks. Thank you, grandma. You’re welcome. So where are my beautiful, great-grandchildren? Uh, they’re with my mom in DC but I, I promise next time I’ll bring ’em with me.

It won’t be months and months from now, I hope. No, no, no, no. I’ll bring it back soon. Hopefully Abe will be here as well. Yeah, well, we’re all praying for that, but, but unless, unless you’ve heard something from Ray or, or somebody, the, the police don’t have any leads. No, no news, unfortunately. But I did hear that they ruled out Colin Bedford as a suspect.

Yeah. Well we heard that. Abraham is such a good and decent man. You know, he does not have an enemy in the world, and for him to be kidnapped, actually, he still hadn’t recovered completely from that last assault. Why? Oh, why Lord? Who in the world would do this to him? Well, what do you mean, Abe? What? What would I have to tell you?

Well, I was sitting here watching. Body and soul and Cassandra and Rhett were celebrating their second anniversary, their second anniversary of their fourth wedding. That is, And all of a sudden came back to me. What did Paul, today is our wedding anniversary, isn’t it,

baby? I wish I could say happy anniversary and happy Juneteenth too. But I know this is a tough time for you, so I’m just gonna say I love you and I’m here for you. Bless your heart. That means so much to me. But mama, why’d you call and tell me you were coming because I wasn’t gonna let you talk me out of it.

Besides, I had to see with my own two eyes that my baby was okay, well, she’s a lot better. Not a choice.

I had these fires printed. I wanted to do something to help find your stepfather. Yeah. Well, Abe is the mayor, so everyone pretty much already knows he’s missing. So all of this is just performative. Chanel, wait, look, I know I should have said this yesterday at the hospital, but thank you for what? Calling the cops and saving me from Colin.

And I’m sorry about all the terrible things I said about you. Why did you say them? Because Colin was listening to every word I was saying. He had a gun. I had to say whatever I had to to save your life. And yours. Look Chanel, I didn’t want you to get hurt. More than I already hurt you.

Yeah, I wish I would’ve known you were coming. I would’ve asked EJ to send that yet. Uh, no. It’s, it’s cool. I actually bought a ticket months ago. My dad is supposed to give this big speech for the Juneteenth celebration and, um, my wanted to surprise him. Right. Well look man, it’s really good to see you.

Yeah. And I’m sure it’ll mean a lot to Melanie.

Hey. Hey. You okay? Yeah. Um,

my dad, his office asked me to deliver a speech form and for some reason I said yes. What do you mean? I think that’s a great idea. He sold your dad. Yeah. It’s just that it is supposed to happen in like half an hour and. There’s no way that I can do it.

I tried to tell Dad’s staff that someone else should give the speech, but line is unavailable obviously, and they didn’t wanna ask Paulina, so, so why not you? Because I’m terrified of public speaking. It’s basically my biggest fear. I mean, I, I, I start to sweat, I trip up on my words. I, I, my hands are clammy just thinking about it.

Yeah, I know the feeling. You do. Yeah. What do you think? You’re the only person that hates public speaking? No, but I’ve seen you give speeches before. You seem totally cool. Yeah. Maybe if it’s about, um, business or something.

A year ago. A year ago. Um, I, uh, I had to give the eulogy at Abby’s funeral and the pressure, you know, I mean, it was just,

I had to be strong for the kids, first of all, and, and I wanted to, you know, I wanted to use the right words to honor their mother’s memory. She got through it. Yeah. But I wasn’t sure that I would. And then I walked up there and I looked around and I saw all of my friends and family, all of their faces, and I knew that they were there with me and Abby was too.

And then this, yeah, this calm just kind of washed over me. And then, like you said, I got through it and you will too today. You know you’re gonna be the one up there at the microphone, but. You bet your ass. I’ll be there. So Ani and Paulina, Brandon, you know your whole family, your mom, the most important.

Your dad, he will be there too. Yeah. Yeah. I know. I just, I don’t wanna disappoint him. I don’t wanna let him down. You mean you couldn’t if you tried? You want what? Let him down. Some boring white dude drawn on about the history of Juneteenth. Yeah. Sad. Yeah. You’re gonna make your dad proud. Okay. I know you are.

Okay, I’ll do it. But I need your help.

How’s Lonnie doing? I mean, I, I know you’re busy. You, you have the children and you have your job, but. You must get to see her sometimes as much as they’ll allow me to. She’ll be eligible for parole in six months, so hopefully she’ll be home by Christmas. Oh, oh, that would be wonderful. Yes, it would.

Apparently she’s doing incredible things in there. She’s mentoring prisoners, changing lives. It’s, it’s, I don’t know, it’s just so many women in prison. They just need someone to believe in him. Lonnie is a wonder. We’re always so proud of her. Yeah. Oh, I know that when she’s released, she won’t be able to be a cop again, which is a damn shame because she’s, she’s one of the best, but whatever she does, I know she’ll be great at it.

I am counting down the days until she’s home again.

So I hired Black Patch investigators to work with the police. Oh, they’re the best. And they, they happen to be Abe’s closest friends, but they, they still haven’t found anything. Well, baby. Now you told me Abe was dealing with memory loss. You think maybe he could have wandered off? No, I brought that up. But Mama Abe is the mayor.

He’s one of the most recognizable men in Salem. If he was wandering around the streets, someone would’ve called a tip by now. Unless now don’t you go to that dark place. You hear me? Don’t go to that dark place. Especially not today. Come here baby. Come here.

Now you’ve listened to me, you’ve gotta have faith that your wonderful husband will be found and that he’ll come back to you. Okay.

How did you know that it was our anniversary? Are are, are you starting to remember? No. No. But, uh, Chanel your daughter, I. When we were in the hospital, she told me that we were married on Juneteenth. That’s today, isn’t it? That’s right. So today is, is our wedding anniversary. Of course. I wasn’t hiding it from you.

In fact, I was planning a special dinner for us later. How many years are we celebrating? Just one. One. So this is our first anniversary? Yes. Mm-hmm. It is. Uh, you know, we had both lived such full lives before we found each other. I know it’s only been one year, but I feel as if I’ve loved you forever. Can you tell me about that day?

How dog? Yeah. What would you like to know? Was it a big wedding or a small one? It was there. Do we, do we write our own vows? That’s just tell me everything. I mean, maybe you can spark some memories.

Look, before you met me, I know Colin convinced you that my mom and I were these evil people who he needed to pay back for what we did to his family. But then you did meet me. I gave you a job and we were friends. Or at at least I thought you were my friend. I was. But you still did everything he told you to do.

You went along with his plan to destroy our lives. Look, I know it doesn’t make sense and it doesn’t even make sense to me. Okay. But I’m working through it. I went to go see Dr. Evans and she made me realize that. I was in an abusive relationship. Colin abused you? Yeah, emotionally. I mean, he never hit me or anything, but he had this power over me that I can’t even explain.

And I know it sounds crazy to somebody as strong as you. Not crazy really. When I was with Colin’s father, he was my professor and well, He had all the power in our relationship, and even though it was totally consensual, there was just something that made me feel like I had no choice but to be with him.

It’s always easy to see looking back at it, right? And I know that my situation is way different from yours, and I’m not trying to make any excuses for what I did at all. But you and your mom were so good to me, and a part of me felt like I needed to stop Collin’s plan right then, but, but you didn’t. But I didn’t know how Chanel, when he asked me to seduce you and then break your heart, look, I didn’t think that it would happen.

Okay. I didn’t think that you would feel for me, cuz I knew I wouldn’t feel for you. I never even thought about being with a woman before Chanel, but when we got close I did feel something.

You want me to believe you had real feelings for me? Is that what you’re saying? Look, look, no, I don’t know. I don’t know what I’m saying. Chanel, I, I just knew that I didn’t expect to feel so connected to you. Okay. After that, I knew I had to stop lying and I just had to tell you the truth. Yeah. Or are you sure you weren’t just trying to get out of sleeping with me?

I don’t think so. Look, before I left Colin that day, I made him promise me not to hurt you or your mom. Yeah. I guess he wasn’t keeping that promise. No. Unfortunately not. Look, when I saw him on top of that roof pointing that gun at you, I knew I couldn’t let him. Everything after that, I don’t know it. It was a blur on instinct.

I lunged at him, and before you know it, I was falling off the side of the roof. You saved my life and you almost lost yours in the process. Look, I can’t, I can’t take credit for that. Okay. Cuz I know that I could have stopped it way earlier. Okay. But you did stop it and could have been worse. A hell of a lot worse.

He was gonna kill me and then he was gonna kill my mom next. So I owe you a thank you.

Why would you want the gory details of our wedding day? Why were they gory? I mean, weren’t they happy memories? Oh, yes, yes, of course. I mean, well, the wedding part was amazing. It was perfect. But right after we said I do, our daughter confessed to murder. What? Chanel killed somebody. Oh, no, no. Chanel’s my daughter.

With my ex. I’m talking about our daughter Lonnie.

Why am I just hearing about this? I haven’t wanted to overwhelm you with details since When is having a daughter a detail, Helena, why is this the first time I’m hearing about her daughter and, and why haven’t I seen Lonnie? Well, because she’s in prison. In prison. I’m sorry, I just didn’t wanna spring all of this on you at once.

Well, do I have any other children I don’t know about. Yes, actually. You have a son.

All right. So, uh, what do you, uh, do you need some help writing your speech? No, I, I have the speech my dad wrote, but there’s another way that you could help me. Okay. Whatever you need. So, um, back in the day, my speech therapist used to have me line up all of my stuffed animals and just practice having conversations with them.

Okay. So you will, I can go back and get some of Thomas and Charlotte’s stuffies for you. No, I I, I’m kidding. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. You want me to be your audience? Yeah. If, if you wouldn’t mind, fine. I would be honored. Okay,

you grab this.

Good afternoon. I’m Mayor Abe Carver. No, I’m a mayor. Hip Carter’s son, Theo. I know. He wishes you were here today. But I wanna start by talking about what brings us together on this special day

on June 19th, 1865, where it finally reached Galveston, Texas, that the Civil War had ended two months earlier, or importantly, it was a day that the last enslaved people in the United States learned that they were free. That next year, the first Juneteenth celebration was held in Texas. But soon as the families moved elsewhere, they took that tradition with them,

uh, Juneteenth spread all across the country. And finally, last year, Juneteenth became a federal holiday. This day has been known in various parts as Jubilee Day. Emancipation Day and even Black Independence Day. It’s also the day that I, um, no, it’s also the day that my dad calls his anniversary. And today as every day, we celebrate with a mixture of joy, for freedom, sadness, for our years of hardship, and for those still struggling.

I know for a better, brighter future.

And darling, you gotta have faith. Faith in the good Lord. I do have faith Mama. In both the good Lord and in Abraham. Well, you hold on tight to that faith. Okay?

And honey, I know this is supposed to be a day of celebration, but as I recall, your wedding day was not exactly a day of sunshine and roses. No. No it wasn’t. It was the best day of my life and it turned into one of the worst when Lonnie got arrested. And what does that tell you? That today isn’t just about celebration.

It’s about taking the good with the bad, looking to the future, and holding onto that faith. You must never stop believing that a will come back to you. You hear me? I hear you.

Please, no need to thank me. I’m just really happy that you’re okay.

Well, um, I should go. I made teacakes for my mom’s anniversary. Oh, wow. I’m sure she’ll love them. I used your recipe. So does that mean the bakery’s back open? No. No. Um, but I’m working on it. I’m, I’m sorry. Yeah. Well, for what it’s worth, I hope Abe’s found soon, and I know you don’t think it’ll do anything, but I’m gonna continue to knock on some doors and I’m gonna hang up some flyers.

Oh yeah. Look, I’m not gonna give up. Okay. Chanel,

oh my stars. Look at the time I promised Thomas and Charlotte I was gonna take them to the park to meet Chad for the Juneteenth celebration. I’d like to go with you, sweetheart, but I’m still feeling a little wiped out. My darling here went 10 rounds with the flu last week, and one as always. Yeah. See, thank God.

Would you like to come with me to the park? Yeah, absolutely. Maybe Paulino will be there too. Yeah. You know, Abraham was supposed to give the speech today, wonder who’s gonna take his place as if anybody could

to quote President Obama. Juneteenth has never been a celebration of victory or an acceptance of the way things are. It’s a celebration of progress. It’s an affirmation that despite the most painful parts of our history, change is possible and there’s still so much work to do.

On behalf of my dad, we thank you. Happy Juneteenth. Happy anniversary that

it’s perfect. You’re gonna the park.

I’m ready.

Mama, aren’t you supposed to? Big mama. Hi. Hey. Hi. I am so happy you’re here. So good to see you. It’s good to see you too. We have missed you so much. Well that’s good because I missed you too and I know it means a lot to mama that you’re here. So please tell me that you’re staying for a long time. Just a few days.

Oh, well, we’ll have to see if we can talk again into staying longer, a lot longer. We will definitely work on that. And aren’t you supposed to be at the Juneteenth celebration? I was gonna bring some teacakes by afterward, sweetheart. My heart is just not in it today. Not without Abraham. What’s my son’s name?

His name is Theo. Theo. Why haven’t I seen him? Well, um, he lives out of the country, uh, South Africa actually. Oh, he, he is even calling me. Does he know I’m injured? Does he, I mean, I would at least,

what, what, what is it? I think, uh,

I think I’m close to a memory. Well, don’t push it, baby. You don’t wanna upset yourself and delay your recovery. Um, don’t worry, I’ll get that you just rest.

Hello, may I help you?

Hi, I, I’m so sorry to bother you, but I’m, you know what? I don’t want my cat to come out, so let me come outside with you here in the hallway there. That’s better. How can I help you? Um, I’m trying to find a missing person. So what, you just canvassed the whole neighborhood? No, actually, my sister’s a cop and she scrubbed on this address when she was following up on leads.

So I thought I’d start here first. Huh,

mama. I know it’ll be tough for you, but. You should probably get out so that you can not stay here staring at us in these four walls all day. You know she’s right, Paulina. I know, but sitting here is staring at my sweet mom and my daughter and these four walls. That’s all I’m feeling up to today.

I get that. Okay.

Julie. Hi. Hi. Chanel. Oh, oh, oh, my Miss Olivia. Oh, what, what a beautiful surprise. So good to see you. So good to see you too, Julie. Thank you. Well, I, I, I know I’m interrupting a lovely family gathering, but. Colleena. I wanted you to know we missed you at the park. I know I wanted to be there, but, oh, I understand.

I do understand. So, I brought something back for you from the park, Julie, now come on. You didn’t really have to do any Thank you.

Hey. Oh. Oh. If you didn’t come to the party, we bring the party to you. Oh, so. How was the Juneteenth celebration? Oh my God. It was, it was, uh, amazing. It was so moving and I ran into, uh, to Theo before, and he was so nervous, uh, to give Abe speech, but as soon as he got up there, his, his whole energy changed.

His Brilliant. And he was channeling his father. Exactly. Yeah. It was just, it’s just really nice to have something to celebrate this week. Yes. Julie reminded me that this was a anniversary of Abigail’s death. Yeah. Yeah. I decided not to mention to the kids, but like I said to Julie, you know, I, I’m, I’m pretty sure they knew.

Well. Children always understand more than you think they do. That’s exactly what Julie said. And though your precious kids have lived through a terrible loss, they still are spirited and altogether delightful. And Chad. That is a credit to you.

You know what? Before I forget, Lonnie asked me to give you one of these. We love you, Pauline. Excuse me? Can I get one of those? Oh, now you know I’m gonna give you a kiss. Big mama.

I missed you. It’s good to see you. It’s good to see you, and it’s good to see you too, sister in-law. Hang right back at your brother-in-law, Eli. Thank you. Thank you for being here. Thank all of you. Hey, where else will we be? Think mommy, you know, maybe you are right. Maybe I did need my family and my friends around me.

Maybe. Of course I was right.

Is there room for one more? Oh.

Oh, well, the commissioner came to question me because I was on duty at University Hospital on the day that, uh, uh, mayor Carver disappeared. Apparently, I was one of the last people to see him before he went missing. Oh, oh, really? Did you notice anything suspicious at all? No, no. As I told Commissioner Hernandez, I saw nothing.

It’s so wonderful. Haven’t you all here? I just only wish that Abe was here to see all the people that he loves coming together like this. Well, maybe he can’t see us, but I believe we can make him feel us. No, I do. Let’s all gather around. Oh goodness.

Abraham Carver, we know you’re out there. I want you to know we love you. We miss you. So much, oh, do we ever? And my precious, precious husband is me, Paulina, your wife. And I want you to know no matter where you are, I feel your love and send you mine. And may you never, never leave my heart.

With this ring, I,

I gotta say I am feeling pretty good about this hand. I’m glad to hear it. I know you got a lot better things to do than just babysitting me. Yeah, I was gonna say the same to you. Well, I don’t, and I, Chad, I can’t think of one thing I’d rather be doing than just hanging in with you. They don’t, in that case.

Jen

man, foiled again, I’m gonna beat you one of these days. We’ll see you about that. Yeah. I may, uh, manage you to be the ripe old age 125, but I’ll beat you. I’ll do my dinges. Okay, well one more unto the breach. It was great. Great to see Eli again. Wow. And it lifted Julie’s spirits. Yeah. I’m sure it’ll lift Paulina’s spirits too.

You know, wherever Abe is, I hope he can feel all the love his family is sending his way.

You know, it’s been way too long since you sent me pics of my, my grand babies. Paulina, I just sent you pics yesterday. Well, what about today? All right, everyone. Now Miss Olivia and I as the two matriarchs of this family, wanna propose a toast? We do. Of course we do. Now, we all know today is a mixed bag.

It’s Juneteenth great celebration, also a great celebration for a very important anniversary. But we are all missing Abraham, something fierce. Fear. You know, I’ve known Abraham Carver longer than anybody else in his room.

And I know that he would want us to go forward with a celebration and he’d be so proud and honored of the speech you gave in your father’s name today, and all of the town turned out to give their support. Today. Can, can I say something? Oh, please. I wanna make a toast to all of you for being here to love, support, and celebrate my brilliant, powerful mother on her anniversary.

Oh, her love and faith are what’s gonna bring Abe home. Happy anniversary, mom. Yeah,

happy anniversary.

And this time next year, we are all gonna be meeting together in this room with Abraham to celebrate your second wedding anniversary. Amen. Abraham, wherever you are,

we know that you’re thinking of us just as we are thinking of you

Rain. Ivy, we with this Ring Ivy, we.

Sorry about that darling. Sorry, it took so long. I was a door-to-door salesperson. I thought I’d never get rid of her. Hey, what’s the matter? You look like you’ve seen a ghost. You’re not my wife.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Sean, what are you? You do realize that it’s barely past breakfast time? I do. And do you have any idea how hard it is to find a place that sell liquor this early in the morning? Don’t joke about this. Listen, I wasn’t joking. The bottle that I had the other night just somehow mysteriously just disappeared.

So I had to get another one. Can I, can I please have my bottle back? No, you can’t. And if you’re wondering if I poured the other bottle out, I did. I confess and I would do it again. Son, listen, I get that you’re in pain about your dad. And that you’re tearing yourself out both of putting him in that coma, but this has got to stop.

Well, if it isn’t, commander Michaels didn’t expect to see you here. That was intentional.

So what were you doing behind the wall?

Dam it ej. I am more concerned about Megan killing Stephan than Nicole killing you. Why would she? What do you mean by that? For God’s sake? I was being facetious. Ohm supposed to be with Nicole right now at an appointment with a perinatologist, an expert in high risk pregnancies, one of the most sought after specialists in the country.

It was almost impossible to get an appointment, but I managed it. I am relieved because I thought Nicole had suddenly become homicidal. No, of course not. And honestly,

finding out that I was to be the father of her baby, I wouldn’t have predicted that it would mean so much to me. As you are well aware, she’s, she’s had a history of miscarriages and it’s all very heartbreaking, so her and I are very, very eager to find out what her chances are of carrying our baby to turn.

But now here I am with the appointment only an hour away, and our sadistic sister has got me tied up tighter than a rodeo calf. Yes.

Oh, Nicole, I’m so good you’re here. I just got a message from the perinatologist, so she should be here within the hour. Where is he? Jay? Is he around? Oh, you mean the man who’s supposedly excited to be the father of my child.

Thanks for letting me know. Is that about Colin guess? I tried to get him transferred to Bayview since he’s obviously in a bad state, mentally. Of course, Trask wasn’t going for it, no surprise. So he’s still at Salem PD and since he refuses to take my plea deal, probably end up at Statesville for the rest of his life.

Okay. What can I do?

Nothing. Except hold me.

Stop right there. Lucy, was he, excuse me. As much as I’m sure you would love them, they’re not meant for you. Oh, these are not meant for anybody because this is where they belong.

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

Pat, you are being extremely rude. Yeah. Well, at least I’m not a card carrying phony. Like this guy Unc Meister here is about a see through as as that underwear Xander gave you for Valentine’s Day. Look, I know you want me six feet under because I swapped out your priceless emerald for a phony. And now you’ve got double reason to want me dead because I am onto you.

Mr. Hoy toity. Mr. Too handsome for the room. This room. Anyway. Well, Gwenie here happens to be my truest and bestest friend in the entire world, and you have another thing coming if you think I’m just gonna sit back and watch you take advantage of her,

I was. Nearly getting acquainted with my famous family home, which is not your home. So what exactly are you doing here?

So you’re going to exile Megan permanently to a place she can’t ever leave and she’ll never hurt another soul again. It’s simple.

I’m done watching You hurt people.

Dammit. I have to get out of here. I have to get to that appointment. You know what? I didn’t. I didn’t know this meant so much to you becoming a father again, truthfully,

what means the most to me is Nicole’s happiness. I’ve got no pregnant twice before, as you know, and nevermind the drama surrounding those two pregnancies. That’s irrelevant. The important thing is that both times she miscarried and she was crushed. I don’t want her to have to go through that again. You really love her, don’t you?

I really do. Even if she doesn’t feel the same way about me, you know, EJ is the one who pulled strings to make this appointment happen, and now he’s not even coming. With no explanation, just some text that says, Ooh, whatever, you know, deal with it yourself. Okay. Those were not his exact words, but you know, I find it really surprising because EJ seemed really excited about this pregnancy.

Well, he is excited. Maybe I’m just overreacting. Maybe I’m, I’m hormonal, but I’m just trying to understand why he suddenly pulled a disappearing act. C, come on, gimme that. Come on, Val. Listen, I’m not hurting anybody. All right. Are you serious? Because the other night you were so wasted and ready to get behind the wheel of a car, and I’m just praying you don’t hurt somebody else.

I, Lord knows you’re already hurting yourself with all of this. Okay? Oh, you know, you’re right. Actually, you know what? Maybe I should just go on like everything is fine. I’m just gonna forget about the fact that I shot my dad, and I’m gonna forget that I put God sake Sean, no one’s asking you to forget it.

I’m just asking you to deal with it, but in the right way. Oh. Oh, okay. The right way. Okay. The right. And I’m assuming that you know what the right way is, so if you do, I’m all ears I’d to know. Okay. Well, it’s not drinking yourself into a stupor.

Listen, I just, I’m just asking you to maybe go talk to my mom. Okay. Maybe she can help you process all this guilt you’re feeling. You want me to go to therapy? Therapy be, I mean, come on. I mean, Bob is a lot cheaper, so he can stop joking about this. Listen, it’s, it’s not gonna be easy and it’s not gonna be immediate, but I do think that talking to someone about this will help give you some perspective, you know, so you’ll stop torturing yourself.

Maybe I want, maybe I wanna torture myself bell, huh? Do you not get it? Do I have to spell it out for you? Is it, I deserve to be tortured. I deserve to be miserable. That that is my punishment. You can’t mean that. I mean, every damn word of that.

Well, the doctor’s not gonna be here for a while, so there’s still time for EJ to get here. Yeah, of course. I’m sure you’re right. Yeah, listen, I need to get to my office, but I’ll look for you in a little bit, okay? Mm-hmm. Okay. Sounds good.

Oh, come on, ej. Dammit. Answer me pink.

Everything okay? Yeah. Hi, bill. I’m just, um, I’m just frustrated, you know, because I’ve been trying to reach EJ and he just finally sent me a text and I, you know what? It’s a long story and I’m, I, I, I just wish he was here. I’m sorry. Is this about you being pregnant? I, uh, I read about it in Lady Whistleblowers column.

Yeah, right. Well, it, it is so I guess the story is accurate then. And ejs the father. Huh? We did a paternity test. It’s definitive. Yeah. Wow. I guess that probably hit Eric pretty hard. Huh?

I must seem so needy to you. Hey, I know each other sometimes. God knows I’ve leaned on you a lot since we’ve been together. I’m here for you and I told you that

I just wanna be here. All day right in your arms. It’s fine by me. Don’t tempt me. I can’t. I have to be in court soon. Let me come with you. I can help you get through it. You would do that for me

with everything that my brother has done. I mean, the mayor still missing Abe’s or friends. He wouldn’t have even been in the hospital had it not been for Colin. He must be crazy to even wanna be seen out with me. And call me crazy. That was a two-way street. So was loyalty. You’ve been there for me. Like I said, why wouldn’t I be there for you?

Matt, I knew that you were trying to protect me, but you, um, I’m not trying. I’m succeeding Actually. You’re not, you’re not even being very clear right now. What exactly do you think is happening here? What, how, how, how, how am I taking advantage of Gwen? Oh, just stop. I know what you’re up to with your cheap grocery store flowers and your good manners, and your good looks and your good.

Okay, fine. I’ll give this one to you. Your great body. And you turn on the charm and suddenly the spectator is running this splashy front page sugarcoated profile about Salem’s latest Euro trash reject. In which you’re all, I know, I present as a narcissistic sociopath who wants to destroy the world, but deep down in just a cuddly teddy bear, God.

And this, this is what you’ve wanted all along, isn’t it? Von Liar, liar, pants on fire. All this great free publicity, Dimitri. Well, I will not stand idly by while you try and manipulate Gwen into giving you more and more, because lemme tell you she’s a real journalist and if she’s not gonna stand up for herself, then it falls on me.

Hmm.

Where does that leave us, Mr. Stark? I still sit down. Oh. Like you wouldn’t cheat, but go ahead. Kill me. If you must. At least I will go down knowing I was defending my best friend from your insulting and nefarious behavior.

My Commander Michaels, I’m insulted. Talk about baseless accusations safe act.

I know you have somebody in your sights right now. Who is it? Hope Kate, somebody else in town. Who’s in your way? Oh my look who’s come down with a terrible case of savior complex. So now your Salem self-appointed protector. Tell me, does the job come with a shiny tin badge, perhaps a Dakota rape? Somebody has to protect this town from you, and I’m proud to be the one to do it.

I owe the people a Salem that much after all the damage I did when I was under your control, and you were such a disappointment. Believe me, I’m about to become more disappointing to you.

You two,

what the hell is going on here?

Fuck mad. I simply stop by to express my thanks to Gwen for the story. That’s it. No ulterior motives, I swear. Right? Okay, Matty, you know you love best, right? And you know that I adore you, but sometimes you could be just a bit overzealous. And you can be dangerously dewy eyed and gullible at times. Gwen falling, shallowly.

Shallowly, is that a word? Shallowly. Shallowly. Pray to a man’s physical attributes, ignoring the fact that he’s a master manipulator with a heart of stone. Okay, that’s enough. Just Dimitri, as you recall. I’m sure. You remember yesterday I defended Matty and I think today he’s just trying to return the favor, return the favor way to downplay Guinevere.

I offered to die for you and he seems to forget that I am absolutely capable of taking care of myself, and that’s why your life has been such a better roses. You see Matty as a very loyal friend, so loyal. In fact, he sometimes passes the ability to take a hint. Not to mention my ability not to be fooled by a slick and slimy creep whose only attributed is that he looks like a cross between George Clooney and Ricky Martin.

Oh God. Look, look at the time, um, you have a deadline, don’t you? Yes. You have a column that you have to file now, right? Matty, right now I’ve got my eye on you. Tall, dark, and dangerous. Don’t forget it.

I’d like to apologize for my friend. He, um, sometimes has an overactive imagination. No, no. Um, actually I should be the one apologizing to you. You see? Now that we’re alone, I can tell you the truth that Sure. Odd little friend there. Well, he was absolutely right about me.

Uh, God. Sorry, Nicole. That was so insensitive. I’m just a little and no more than a little. Listen, I, I know it’s no excuse. I just had a really rough morning. Yeah. We’ll, join the club. What’s going on with you? It’s Shawn. Yeah, it’s uh, you heard what happened with his dad and how he was trying to save his mom and Yeah, I did.

And I also heard he is struggling with it. Yeah, that’s putting it mildly. And it’s just getting worse. So I thought I would bring him here to see my mom, but, um, you’re here alone. Well, I came anyway. Yeah. So I should probably go talk to her and get her thoughts on all of this. And, um, you don’t need to hear about my problems, but I am so sorry for what I just said about Eric.

I know it’s, it’s complicated. Okay.

Complicated. You have no idea.

So you think, Nicole, what she’s using you doesn’t have feelings for you? No, no, no. I’ve never said that. I’m, I’m just not confident that she loves me quite the same way that I love her. Why is that?

Oh, did you say the L word to her and she didn’t say it back, and how was that? Any of your concern? Well, just. Answer my question. It’s complicated. All right. Because of her past feelings for Eric Brady, though it might become less complicated now that he’s clearly moved on with that hateful lawyer that Baden noir of everyone of Salem.

You haven’t eaten a thing. Listen, I know you’re worried about your brother, but you got to eat so you can keep your strength up. This is not about Colin, it’s about you. Me. Did I do something wrong? No. No, you didn’t do anything wrong. It’s about the offer you made me earlier when you said you’d go to court with me.

Well, it really touched me. I wanna support you because I love you. I love you too, Erin. Which is why I,

which is why what? Which is why I don’t want you to forget about the offer I made about us having a baby together. I haven’t forgotten. Why are you bringing him now? Oh, well, because you just do so much for me and I wanna do something for you. And that’s very kind and loving offer, but you have so much on your plate right now, and I don’t mean literally.

Seriously though, given everything that I’ve gone through and what you’re going through right now, I don’t think it’s the right time for us to have a baby. Why the hell not?

It’s starting to feel like Grand Central Station in here. I’m gonna have to talk to the staff about upgrading the locks. Whoa. Well, so much for being done with Megan Hathaway, right? Hmm? That’s Megan Demara. Who is it that you’re gonna take out next? Huh? Is she trying to get you to go after my mom again?

Hey, just slow down. It’s obvious you’ve been drinking. You g know you sound like my wife. You got, you got it wrong. Okay. I’m here to deal with Megan, not make a deal. We’re on the same side. Okay. And who, wait, who is it that asked you to do that? I, I, because I, I decide. I decide. I decide who’s on my side.

Okay. Thank you very much. Are you sure that you were sied by Bo Brady? Because you are absolutely nothing like him. Pathetic, drunk in little mansion. You’re the reason that I’m like this. Okay. How is it that you. How is it that you’re not in prison? Hey, how is it that you are walking around here free? Well, my parents after everything that you did to them, huh?

My mom and my dad. You keep your distance. Oh,

wait a second. Who’s the one that’s pathetic right now? Hmm? Who’s pathetic? Wait, are you scared, Maggie? Are you scared? Are you scared that you’re gonna have to pay for messing up my dad’s head and turning him into a zombie? Huh? Is that what you’re gonna, oh, come on, Shawn, let’s calm down. If you tell me where your dad is, I can go and apologize to him now.

Oh, wow. That’s That’s hilarious. That’s hilarious. An apology. An apology. Talk about a little too late you sadistic bitch. You know the minute, the minute that I thought of it, you were here. I knew, I knew that I needed to come here and I needed to do something. Yeah, Maggie, you know what? You, you were gonna pay, okay?

That is enough out of you, detective, unless you wanna have a bullet between your eyes.

Kate, what are you? He is dropping. Sorry, not sorry about letting in. So what did you hear? Well, I heard enough, although you girlfriend may not be a favorite of mine. That’s beside the point, which is, which is. Obviously you are serious enough about each other to be talking about having a baby. Something I know is very, very important to you.

So if there’s an offer, genuine one, why would you wait? Because it’s a serious decision. It’s not something you just rush right into, oh, blah, blah, blah, blah, boring. Okay. I know you’re trying to do the responsible thing, but, but life is messy. I mean, it can be joyous. It can be thrilling, and then it can be depressing as hell.

You still have to plunge in and embrace the chaos. I mean, if you’re always using all of your energy and time to logic through everything, opportunities are just gonna pass you by and you won’t even notice because you’ll be so busy trying to do everything the right way, and all of a sudden you’re gonna end up on a boat in the middle of the ocean, God knows where, cutting the heads off fish and wondering why you didn’t do all the things you wanted to do.

Well, tell us how you really feel. Yeah, cuz it’s not that simple. Oh, I never hold back. Oh yes. It is that simple. I know about McCall and EJ Roman filled me in. So what so what That it didn’t work out. Screw it. Why don’t you make something else work out? Because if you wait, all you’re gonna do is get older.

I mean, if there’s something you want really, really badly, you need to make that happen, and you need to make it happen now.

Hey, speaking from experience, although it has been a while, um, When a woman isn’t expecting to hear, I love you, it does take some time for her to process it. Therefore, she might not immediately respond in kind. Well, obviously Nicole did not. But in her defense, I was unaware that she was pregnant. She was unaware who the father was.

I, well, I, I don’t know this if this would be comforting to you in any way, but, um, I wouldn’t say I love you too, under those circumstances, but Nicole and I have known the truth that I’m the father for several days now and she hasn’t said it. Yep. Ej, she doesn’t know if she’s gonna carry this baby to term.

And she’s in a very stressful position, said, just don’t expect too much too soon,

Kristen, if I didn’t know better, ID think you were trying to be helpful to your brother. Are you actually offering me emotional support?

And if anyone asks. I will deny it.

Oh, maybe today was the day that Nicole was going to say it. Dammit. If I hadn’t tried to warn Stephan, I’d be with her right now at the doctor’s appointment, finding out where we stand. Instead, I’m here waiting for the craziest mirror of all time to decide our fate.

I wouldn’t if I were you, commander Michaels, you stay exactly where you are. That’s a good boy, Shawn Brady, you pathetic little weasel. Here I am grieving the loss of my beloved bow, and all you can do is drown yourself in a bottle of booze. Not to mention looking around everywhere you can for someone else to blame for the bullet that you put into him.

I know. I know what I did and I hate myself for it. But you know what? But the truth is I would do it again. I would do it again if I knew that I was saving my mom’s life because I thought, I thought my dad was gonna kill her. I wish he had. You should have let him because we’d all be better off then.

That’s right. That’s right. Shawnee. Boy, back away and don’t you dare take another step. I waited years, years to have my beloved bow back. And you, you ruined it in an instant. Well, guess what? I can ruin you in an instant. Megan. I’m, I’m a witness. You pull that trigger and you go straight back to prison. You silly, silly boy.

There will not be a witness if I go this far besides. This man broke into my house and threatened me. I am well within my legal rights to end his pathetic little life right now. I just hope that it won’t permanently stain my carpet with your blood. It’s one of my favorites.

So you really were just using me to clean up your image, a very unsportsmanlike of you. No, no, no, no. I, I would, I would never do anything like that. What I meant was that your, um, well, your persistent and very, very loyal friend was right to assume that I did come here with, well, with an agenda, uh, with her.

Then what is it? The truth is that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since the day we met. That’s why I brought you these flowers,

Gwen, ever since I saw you at our family home, I just, I just felt something and ever since that day, I haven’t been able to get you outta my head and my heart. Forgive me, I, I’m sorry. I’m, I’m, I’m putting you on the spot. How could you possibly, well, how could you possibly have the same feelings for me?

What if I do.

You mean you, you actually have feelings for me.

You know, we had lunch the other day. I, I couldn’t believe how much we had in common, how alike we were. I. I thought I was being too obvious with my feelings. Honestly, must be my famous British Reserve for not showing it. Or maybe it was that my vision was just clouded by hope.

Well, I hope you’ve seen clearly now

watch closely.

Hey Sean. Come on. Stop Megan.

Okay. I know you think you got a case of self defense, but two dead bodies are gonna mess up whatever plans you have cooking, and we both know you always have something planned.

Good decision now. I’m gonna walk Shawn out. Shawn gonna walk out. You’re gonna put the gun down

and we all to fight another day. Let’s go. Sean, walk out. Let’s go.

Stupid Salem Protector. You are lucky. I need you for my plan. Still commander.

Which reminds me, what am I gonna do about those two down there?

Damn her. How long do you think she’s gonna let us stew down here? You tell me you are the one who’s been colluding with her. Okay. You know what? I owe you an apology for throwing in my lot with her. Well, in your defense, you had no idea. She made the bummer look like an older boy.

Ah man. When she cooked up that plan to escape from prison, I was determined not to get left behind. I just, it went along with the plan cuz I thought it was gonna be my only chance to get back with Rachel. I do understand that I. Oh, honestly, I mean, I didn’t mind plotting behind my siblings back. I mean, alls, alls fair and love and corporate governance, right.

God, I had no idea. She was such a crazy woman. Oh hell, she makes me look practically normal. Let’s hear it for normal. I’ll take that any day of the week. Hello? Hi Kayla. Can you sign a vj? No. I texted him a couple of times. Well, actually a couple thousand times, but I haven’t heard from him. He must be tied up somewhere.

Well, I’ll stay here with you so you don’t have to do this alone. All right. I just got another message from the doctor. She’ll be here in a few minutes. Oh, that’s great. I mean, at least we’ll find out one way or another what my chances are of carrying this baby to term.

You have to admit, I mean, everything Kate said makes sense. Oh, I always make sense. Excuse me. Okay. So if this guy needs further convincing, you’re going to have to handle that on your own because I have to go. But before I do, I have one more thing to say to you. You need to cease today. Okay? And I know that you know what that means, because you gave a sermon on that once when you were still wearing that funny little collar, remember?

Okay, look, I swear to you, I did not pay her to come and say all of that, but what do you think

here? Drink this. It’ll help.

After everything last night, I should have known you’d go after Megan today. I never should have let you leave like that. We could have shot you. Yeah. Well, I wish she had. Don’t say that. Listen, I would’ve taken that bullet. I would’ve taken that bullet because I deserve it. No, that is not true. Look at me.

Son, I love you.

I dunno, what am God’s name has she been doing up there this whole time? Who knows? Maybe she’s found someone else to terrorize. I just hope Stephen’s safe. Oh. God, I have a feeling that we’re gonna be down here for a long time. See? Might as well get used to it. There is no way in hell I’m getting used to this.

Oh, damn it. What Nicole? No, the appointment was an hour ago by now. She’s gotten the news about her pregnancy, good or bad, and I wasn’t by her side.

Nicole. Oh, oh. Hi. Everything. All right. Uh, yeah, you, I, I just came from that doctor that I told you about, the one that AJ arranged for us, the perinatologist, to see if I could carry the baby to term. Mm-hmm. What’d the doctor say? Well, I mean, as, as we suspected and, and of course I read up on this too, so I’m not really surprised, but there’s been so many changes since Holly was born and, and with the, uh, some new treatments, the doctor thinks.

The doctor thinks there’s very good chance. That’s great news. I’m happy for you and ej. Yeah, no, truly it’s, that’s wonderful news Nicole. And congratulations. We actually have some good news of our own too. We just discussed this a few minutes ago, but um, we’re gonna try and have a baby as well. Isn’t that great?

We’re gonna be pregnancy twins. It was thanks to Kate. Really, Kate? Yeah. She made me see that there’s no point in weighing around for something I really wanted.

So Shawn just stumbles in and blows up the whole thing. He was there to confront Megan. Obviously he was drunk, he was belligerent. Damnit. Damn it. So that’s it. You just canceled the whole thing. Well, I, I had no choice. She was gonna put a bullet in him. Well, of course she was going to put a bullet in him.

She’s a homicidal maniac. If we don’t stop her, she’s capable of putting a bullet in him. Hang on. Don’t worry. This is just a delay. When the time comes, I’m gonna go back and then you’ll never see or hear from Megan again.

All right, back to business. I know taking over the world was so labor intensive.

I’m so sorry, Glen. I hate to do this, but, um, I’ve been waiting on this, this business text.

Is it important?

Not as important as this? Oh.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

There. How was your shower? It was pleasant enough. I suppose. That shower head though, that’s a bit much. A bit much. It’s supposed to be the Costa Rican waterfall experience of a lifetime. Did it at least wash off the sickly sweet smell of incessant fawning. On Earth is that supposed to mean? Well, here I am reading your interview with a murderous kidnapper who comes off like Mahatma Gandhi, thanks to your gushing and flattery.

Oh, you read my interview? I see. Well, that’s a step up from you perusing photos of the shirtless Hemsworth Brothers, can I read you my favorite quote with his scores of crimes against humanity being well-documented and a rap sheet that would make Al Capone blush. You can only imagine my astonishment at discovering that Dimitri Vaughn Leischner does indeed have a heart.

Well, it looks like someone dialed up the charm to an 11 last night. If you’re referring to yours, truly, my charm does not have a dial. It lives at an 11. Uh, well, from what I’m reading, it seems you made significant headway in regards to Operation Seduce and Mary Gwen Rizek. Yes, I believe I have. Although, I must admit, I’m a little surprised not to find Mother waiting here on tenor Hooks ready to hear all about it.

You really think it’s a smart idea for you to be here? Don’t worry, Mr. Chen. I waited patiently until all of your little roomies scurried off, and I knew you were alone. It’s vital now that we continue our conversation, why was our call cut short? Is someone walking on you? Yes, actually, I was rudely interrupted when my brother EJ overheard our plan to eliminate Stephan.

Stepan Stephan up. Stepan, you need to let me in. Our sister Megan came crazy. She tied me up in the secret room, but I escaped. Stephan, listen brother, I overheard her Ploting to kill you. Stephan open the body door.

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

Brother. Brother,

oh,

yes.

It was a dream. God. It was just a dream,

but now I’m stuck in a nightmare on my own.

Tommy come, oh, uh, Stefan, why don’t you use a battering ram next time? I, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb you. You want to tell me what this is about, Nicole? Because the way you were knocking made it sound like that it was a matter of life and death. Well, I’m. I’m looking for ej. Do you know where he is?

Megan? Oh, shoot. Heartless psychopath. You better go find another island to go hide under because when I get out of here and wrap my hands around your neck. Dear sister, you’re gonna be sorry you never came back from the dead.

With the love of God. Megan, why would you tell EJ about our plan to off Stephan? No, you didn’t hear me. I said EJ overheard me on the phone. Of course I wouldn’t choose to tell him. Okay. Okay. What exactly did he overhear? He overheard that I said, my brother is not long for this world. I. And being the self-absorbed narcissist that he is.

Of course he assumed that I was talking about him. Did, did he know it was me on the other end of the conversation? No, no, no, no, he didn’t. So then I explained to him he had the wrong brother and that it was actually Stephan that we were planning to do away with, and that it might work out in his best interest as much as mine.

Okay. So did he go for it? It felt promising briefly, and then he had a sudden attack of conscience. Where are you going to warn Gabby and Stephan?

Look at what you’ve made me do.

Followed by a sudden attack of being vase.

Well, I have no idea where your mommy is this morning, but why don’t you come and sit next to Auntie Kristen and tell me all about it.

So did you get on your knee and. Ask for Ms. Riz check’s hand in marriage, or are you waiting for an actual date with her? I’m, uh, I’m sensing the slightest tinge of disapproval. Oh, come now. I’d be quite the hypocrite to disapprove. And you doing whatever you need to do to attain your goal. Huh? Even if that means deceiving a woman who is apparently a good friend of yours.

Huh? Are you sure you don’t have a problem with me using Gwen to get what I want? You know what? How about in the future you stop reading my interviews and you go back to looking at pictures of the shirtless heworth brothers. Oh, come on Gwen. I’m just teasing you. No, you were questioning my journalistic integrity says the girl who didn’t hesitate to use blackmail to wrestle control of the spectator away from her old man.

Hey. If memory serves. That was your idea. One of my more inspired ideas at that. But we are straying way off topic. Yes. For good. I hope. No, no, no. Miss Heda hopper wannabe. Not until you explain to me why you went so easy on that scoundrel. Who is so, so easy on the eyes.

Look, Mr. Von Ner and I sat down and we had a rather nice chat. No, I had a roommate once who had a cat named Dimitri. Hello. I thought you wanted to hear about my lunch with the scoundrel. I do, I do. I’m just processing my distress over being exiled from my home. This room that we share so that the two of you can have one-on-one private time.

And when I returned hours past midnight dying to be debriefed, you weren’t even here. You wicked little gat about you. So tell me, after the bistro, did he take you to the hop word on the street? Is that Mr. Von Leischner can cut quite the rug for your information? No, we stayed here and we ordered room service.

Oh hmm. And did you eat your meals in bed under the cubbies? Of course. Not such restraint. Oh no. We sat down and ate in chairs and then when the interview concluded, I made a beeline for the office, wrote up a quick article to get into the morning edition. Hmm. It’s like all the president’s men minus the mutton chops and newsrooms.

What were we supposed to watch that the other night? I know you Gwenie and your article is dripping with subtext. I didn’t have to read much between the lines to know that you’ve got a thing for Dimitri. God, stop it. I barely know him. Yeah, and I know you better than anyone else on the planet. Lady Gwenivere over his Czechia.

So don’t try and pollute lady whistleblower’s air with your lies and deception.

Okay, fine. Yes. He’s quite attractive. I mean, who wouldn’t, who doesn’t? Nobody with eyes and a libido. Yes, exactly. But even beyond that, I, when I was talking to him and getting to know him, I, I realized we have so much in common. Oh, so the two of you were kindred spirits, huh? I wouldn’t go that far, but I would say that there was.

Definitely a connection there.

I actually happen to, like Gwen, she’s smart, savvy, gutsy, but I’m the one who got her the pardon and she owes me not the other way around. Right. Mm. Well, if it makes you feel any better, I, uh, I enjoyed her company. Oh yeah. She, uh, she, she seemed to really listen to everything that I had to say, and she even related to a number of my life experiences.

You mean? You mean the life experiences you no doubt tailored to me hers, the ones that were laid out in detail in the dossier that your mother gave you. Fine, yes. I may have embellished a few details and told her what she wanted, but Okay. Just. Be careful that it doesn’t turn into marriage gate with a reporter breaking her own story.

Well, that’s not gonna happen. Oh, in any case, when I do convince Gwen to marry me, it’ll be for richer and not for poorer. You do know, you do know that, um, mommy dearest, uh, has some big, bold plans of that inheritance of yours. No, she hasn’t made much of a secret about that. No, mommy dearest has a plan for everything.

Absolutely everything.

Nicole. I don’t know where EJ is. Have you checked between the couch cushions? This is serious, Stephan. Okay. EJ has made it abundantly clear that he’s not my keeper, so why should I be his? Because you’re his flesh and blood. Look, last night he sent me a text saying he had to go out of town for a last minute business trip, and I haven’t heard from him since.

I’m worried about him, Stefan, and I thought maybe you might know something. Well, I don’t, Nicole. And the fact that I don’t, and the fact that you don’t should tip us off to one thing, and that is, as we speak, EJ is probably up to something, uh, what’s the word, underhanded. Damn ropes. Okay, come on. Come, come on.

Deep breathy J. Deep breath. Calm. Calm. You’re gonna have to use every bit of your strength to free yourself and get out of here so you can warn Stephan about that at our sister of ass.

Okay? Okay. Okay. So E j’s tied up. In the secret room underneath the Demer Mansion seemed like the logical place to statue him. How’d you even know about it? I thought you never lived in that house. Well, I learned about it last year when I dispatched my beloved boat to relieve Kristen or that rare orchid.

In hindsight, I wish I had never actually sent him here to Salem. If I hadn’t, perhaps, then everything would’ve turned out differently. As much as I. Delight in hearing about all the questionable decisions you’ve made in your past. I’d rather talk about the current offering of choice that will preclude destroying my future.

Because if EJ tells anyone, EJ has been taken care of, your Honor, it’s immaterial. He’s my problem not yours. You. My handsome co-conspirator. You need to focus your full attention on eliminating Stephan so that you can eventually reunite with Gabriela Hernandez. Now, isn’t that what you want?

So how are we gonna do this? How? How are we going to eliminate Stephan?

Wait, you’re not thinking I’m the one who’s going to kill him, are you?

Ah, finally. Yeah. Sorry I’m late. Well, you should be, since you’re the one who called this meeting. Yeah. So am I correct in assuming that you gave some thought to what I proposed the other day? I have. And I’m in excellent. Megan Hathaway has to be dealt with before she has the chance to hurt somebody else.

Well, I’m so glad that you came to your Senses. Commander Michaels, obviously, we agree that she’s a minister to society, so when she’s soundly sleeping in her unmarked grave, I’m not, I’m not gonna kill her. Okay. So I. I don’t understand. I’m confused. You just said that you’re on board for getting rid of her and I still am.

In all my years of being a seal, I’ve learned that there’s more than one way to make somebody disappear.

I don’t see why you’d be put off with the concept of murder, Mr. Chin. Have you forgotten that? You’ve already made an attempt on my brother’s life when you pulled the plug on him and Dr. Rawla, which is why if Stephan Demara is the victim of foul play, I’d be the chief suspect. Prison may be a great place to, you know, finish Moby Dick, but I hear the food is pretty bland.

Well, good thing you’re not going to have to find out, but, but you just said that I was leading you astray, Mr. Shan. I would not trust an important job like this to an amateur assassin who couldn’t even get it right the first time. No, Mr. Shan, we need someone. With ice in their veins. Someone who is trained to kill and willing to kill, and I know just who that someone is.

So you’re gonna exile Megan permanently to a place she can’t ever leave and she’ll never hurt another soul again. So are you talking like a, a black side? Unless, unless you know the better. Okay. I’m fine. I’m fine. But the one thing I do know is that I’m gonna sleep a lot better once I know that woman is Spanish.

Yeah. You and a lot of other people. Indeed. But you do know we have to keep gifts between you and me. Okay. Yeah, of course is my husband, for better or worse, is a man of conscience. I mean, he believed that Orus had killed me and still he stopped Steve and John from Avening my death by killing Orus. So if he finds out about our little plan, as much as he loads Megan for what she did to me, he will definitely try to stop us.

Understood. You know, another thing I was thinking about too seems rather like cruel and unusual punishment to separated mother from her son. So as long as you have Megan blindfolded in an unmarked van, I’m thinking might as well pick up Dimitri and take him along for the ride.

So Dimitri flashes you as baby browns as pearly whites. Maybe breaks out a van Leischner and you go softer on him than a goose feather pillow. Wrong, not to mention very unfair and disrespectful. I will have you know that I asked him some very hard questions, but something else got real hard during that interview.

I swear. Matt, hold on. Let’s see. Let’s see. Uh, no, actually I don’t see any mentions of how he kidnapped Kate Roberts or threatened to blow up half the houses of Parliament in Europe or Salem itself, for that matter. The little speck on the map that we call home and nothing about, and this is highly significant to me, obviously, but how he manhandled yours truly.

And last but certainly not least, not a single hard question about his psychopathic mother. What. I think you were just a tiny little bit jealous that he’s interested in me and not you. Oh, breaking news. Gwenivere. As much as I adore you forever, I hate to hold the stop sign up to this little ego trip of yours, but it’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Dimitri has an ulterior motive.

Oh, and what might that be? Prey. Tell my sweet little darling Misanthropic friend. It’s not misanthropic ness, miss. Whatever. I’m quite fond of. Most of humanity. Well, you anyway, but to answer your question, I don’t have a crystal ball, so I don’t know what lies ahead for you and Dimitri, the dastardly, but I would swear on my life that that dude is not motivated to charm that cute little tushy of yours and swear that the two of you are separated at birth because he thinks you’re the BE’S knees, which you are, but that’s irrelevant.

It’s because he has some sort of grand and sinful plan. Oh, like all great leaders before her. Your mother is wisely circumspect on the particulars of global Agen enemy, though I did hear her mention something about amassing an army of sorts with Harris Michaels at the helm, whatever that means. Uh, I guess it means that someone fell asleep in front of the history channel one too many times.

Man, mom, just, she sounds, sounds delusional. Grandiose. Yeah. I guess nothing new there. Yeah. Well, she can hand me a helmet and stick me on the trenches for all I care. Oh. I only intend to stay on my sister’s good side so that she can assist me in the resources necessary to regain full custody of my daughter.

Wow. So you’re going the legal route this time. That must be a whole new, exciting feeling for you. Oh, it’s gonna be a challenge to say the least. Brady has his little lawyer slash sister in his corner to keep me away from Rachel, and she is an attack dog, and I need an attorney to put a muzzle on her.

Unfortunately, it has been a challenge convincing someone to represent me. If only you had a hotline or a an app for this dilemma? No, no. I actually have someone in mind who might that be. Sloan Peterson, though. She is sleeping with Brady’s brother, Eric. Well, that sounds like a conflict of interest to me.

Mm. Which I am confident that I can mitigate. You see? Dimitri, you are not the only one in this family who can turn on the charm. You know, I have heard Madame Mozel Peterson has a weakness for a, uh, very rare vintage champagne. A 96 Louisie owns put Mm, yes. And we have some in the cellar just collecting dust.

So, If I can turn on said charm and present her with said bottles, then I am quite sure that she’ll accept a retainer in. Bubbles.

Are you insinuating that EJ is involved in some plot that I don’t know about? Right Nicole? It is certainly within the realm of possibility, don’t you think? No, I don’t think, and that, and this can’t be what’s happening because EJ and I are supposed to have an appointment with a specialist in about an hour to discuss if or, or how.

I can carry this baby to term and he did a lot of research to find this doctor, so I’m just trying to understand how he could suddenly be Mia. It doesn’t make any sense. Okay. Nicole, I hate to break this to you, but do you think that maybe just maybe. Killing my chances at Demara is more important to EJ than having this baby with you,

ej.

Putting aside your comprehensive knowledge of my rather checkered history with members of the opposite sex, how many bruises and bumps has my self-esteem and my ego sustained? I mean, what possible objective could Dimitri hope to achieve by charming me? Let me put my thinking cap on for a second. Hmm, I’ve got it.

Maybe the glowing article he’d hoped you’d write about him, which you in fact did. I mean, you can’t buy press like that. Oh, can’t is a strong word. Are you saying that the only reason he was interested in me is, was to use you to rehabilitate his reputation? Ding, ding, ding. Well, okay. I mean, yes, it did. It did occur to me, but I, I made sure to maintain the utmost professionalism and he seemed, he seemed really genuine.

No, I’m, no, I’m not diluting myself here. I. There was a definite attraction. There was this, it was like an electricity. It was so palpable. I’m telling you, I could feel it.

Because Dimitri is as cold-blooded and as manipulative as his mother and that son of a bitch. And I mean that literally might not have actually tried to kill me, but he did hold me hostage and he did force me to the head A boatload of fish was, was not only disgusting, it was totally moralizing. So yes, I would like to see that little mama’s boy just cut off at the knees.

I, I, I understand. I do, but making two people disappear. Well, yeah. I mean if it’s a matter of a incept in shovel, if Dmitri disappears along with Megan, it increases the risk substantially. So what are you saying? That’s what I’m saying. You bring the sun into the mix. It could complicate the mission to neutralize the mother.

I know you had Michael’s brainwash once, but I thought the is a D programmed him. I did, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t reprogram him to do my bidding, and that Lee is where you come in. Not my area of expertise, I’m afraid. However, you can secure someone whose area of expertise it is. I’m thinking, Dr.

Wilham rolls. I trust you know where he might be. You want me to bring the good doctor back to Salem? I do indeed. See, that’s not much to ask. Really. Rather simple, isn’t it? So let’s play this out. Dr. Rolfe programs Commander Michaels to murder Stephan and then OneLA. You and I both get exactly what we want.

Consider it done.

Stephan, you don’t know your brother like I do. I know him well enough to know that he’s a pompous. Ass, or shall I say pomp is rs. What does that have to do with him standing me up for something that’s important to both of us? Like I said, Nicole, nothing is more important to EJ than screwing me up. Oh, damn it Stephan.

I am not gonna wait into your sibling rivalry. I know this baby means too much to EJ to just blow off this appointment so he could love a grenade into this family feud. EJ has moved heaven and earth to get us this appointment with this doctor, and I know I trust that he’s gonna be there by my side for it.

Kristen, thank God you’re here. What? Who the hell did this to you with SCA and stuff in? No, it wasn’t that I, our bloody sister, Megan, but maybe you already know that. Excuse me. Maybe you were a part of this. I knew you two had your heads together plotting something. Oh my God. I had no idea what she was planning.

I just came down here looking for some champagne. Thank God you did. Okay. I know rational thought is not her strong suit, but did she give you a reason why she tied you up down here? She wanted to stop me from stopping her from killing our brother, Stephan.

As a thought experiment. Let’s just say I’m wrong, which I’m not. Almost never am. Let’s just say that Dimitri is vibing with you the way you’re vibing with him. Even if that were true. Aren’t you still licking your wounds from your ZA to break up? Yes, but I suppose I am, but. I mean, it’s not the worst way to get over someone.

Is it having a sexy, dangerous, probably very rich hotty to distract you. A sexy, dangerous, probably very rich Heidi who has made it clear he wants to kill me. Your best friend or so you claim it’s not a claim. It’s true. But think about it, Matty, if I can keep spending time with Dimitri and he thinks of me as the.

Bees knees, or however you put it, then I might even be able to talk him out of wanting to throw you against or through a wall every time he sees you. And maybe just maybe I can show him that you are not the obnoxious, incredibly annoying person that he and everybody else on this planet seems to think you are.

Okay. I’m not ruling out the possibility of dealing with Dimitri, but right now we just need to stay focused. I’m getting rid of Megan. Okay. Megan is the more pressing threat. No doubt. So what’s your, your time schedule? Well, why put off until tomorrow, which you can get done today. Okay. Call me when you’re done.

Aj, where are you?

Hi, aj. It’s me again. You know, at first I was really pissed off that you skipped town and didn’t return any of my phone calls or texts, but now I’m, I’m just worried I’m. I’m at the hospital for our appointment about the baby. Hopefully you just lush your phone and you’re on your way.

Well, well, well brother off to the office. Someone’s gotta keep this company running. Little Birdie told me EJ took another day off. Must have found a couple of palm trees in a hammock. Well, I hope he’s enjoying every moment of it. Life is fleeting and one day we’re all gonna look back and have tons of regrets.

All those woulda, coulda, should us. So live it up while you can. Seize the day as much as I’m enjoying this little Ted talk, Megan, I can’t help but wonder if you’ve had a chance to go over the proposal Gabby and I put together for you.

Well, it definitely sparked some ideas and left me with a few burning questions, but that time is precious and I don’t wanna keep you. Mm. We’ll talk later, right?

Assuming you’re still alive.

Hello, Donny.

I read the article in The Spectator Impressive. It seems that Ms. Rizek is already smitten with you. It oozes out of every sentence. Thank you. Well, uh, to be honest, I’m quite smitten with her as well. Wonderful. Well, perhaps you ought to go see her. Keep the momentum going. Perhaps I will. You know, before I go, uh, mother, I was just speaking to Aunt Kristen and well, she mentioned something.

She mentioned that she were putting together an army. What exactly is it that you’re doing, mother?

Whatever I do my. It’s with you in mind. So you just go sweep that British journalist off her feet and move us closer to our goal. Right.

By the way, where is that sister of mine now? Oh, she, uh, she said something about grabbing a bottle of champagne from the basement. Yeah, I’m sure if you checked, she’d still be there right now. Bye mother.

Why would Megan wanna kill Stephan? Would you be so kind as to undo these bloody nods while we play 20 questions we need to him? Yes.

Okay. These are. Oh my god, these are tied pretty tightly. Yes, I’m well aware of that. Uh, speaking of difficult, not to mean, there was this, um, game that Brady and I used to play. Oh, no, no, no. Not now, not ever. Fine fight. Fine, fine, fine. Just go on about Megan and her motives. She said she was motivated to eliminate Stephan because she wanted to reshuffle the family power dynamics.

Oh God. That it would be some sort of means to whatever twisted ends, she’d conjured up in her disease brain. Well, I need to find something to cut those ropes with, so just hang tight. I wouldn’t do that if I were you.

Sorry, but I cannot support this burgeoning fake romance between you and the venomous bond leischner, even if you could convince that creep to solve all the world’s problems, including climate change, inflation, threat of nuclear war, and rehabbing my reputation. Okay, fine, fine, fine. You’ve made your point.

I sure as hell hope so, because I see a whole lot of ambivalence in those big, soulful eyes of yours. Well, I’m fighting that ambivalence. Okay. I mean, what if your instincts are right, Matty? What if he’s just playing me like a fiddle just to get good press? What if I’m acting like a silly little school girl who has a crush on the jock who can’t even remember her name?

Hey. Hey, uh, I wanna thank you for letting your divorce with Gabby go through so smoothly. She and I are, uh, you know, yeah, I know soon to be married. I’ll keep an eye out for my invitation. I’s knew Gabby would end up with the love of her life.

Speaking of you, thank you. I told Gabby her happiness means a lot to me, so, um, When’s the big day? End of next month.

Well, congratulations.

Thank you.

Too bad you won’t live long enough to say. I do.

So, is it fair to assume that you no longer have any queries about whether or not our system, Megan, is utterly unhinged? You know, I swear I had no idea what she was planning. Okay. I’ll admit, I will admit that when she pitched the these grandiose ideas of picking up where Stefano left off and conquering the world, I did go along with it.

Oh, but she is so much more deranged and sadistic than I thought. You know what? We could be her next victims after she’s done with Stephan. Seems inevitable, but at this point, Nicole might just push Megan outta the way to get to me first.

I need to finally,

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

you know, something in here has gotta lead us. Abraham partner, he just didn’t disappear off the face of the earth. Don’t worry, man. We’re gonna find him. Won’t stop until we do.

Started Combin through all this evidence Salem P just sent us. Oh.

Oh, that’s good. That’s good. Yeah, I know. If you want the case done right, you need black patch on the job. Damn. Abe is always singing your praises. What do we got?

Nothing. You got nothing.

I am honored. And humbly accept this position as your mayor. Woo.

How can this be true

of Salem? Alina said, I said I run an ice cream shop.

You know, I don’t trust any of my siblings, but Megan, there’s something exceptionally deranged about her.

No arguments here. I mean, EJ and Kristen. They have their limits. Right. But Megan, I don’t think there’s any line she won’t cross in order to get what she wants.

What we talked about, taken Stepan down by any means necessary. Yes, I’m in Wise decision, Mr. Shin, that I’m sure that with your help. My brother is not long for this world. Is that so? So what’s the next step? How soon we’re gonna put this plan in motion?

I’ve gotta go ej, I didn’t see there. Obviously not. Or I doubt you would’ve been standing here in my living room plotting my demise,

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

Well, Paulina, I wouldn’t exactly say we have nothing. We’re running down every possible lead and none has panned out. Trust me, if it’s in here, we’re gonna find it. Okay. How can I help? What can I do? Well, listen, rave told us that the last person to see Abe in the hospital was a nurse named Whitley King.

That’s right. Uh, that’s right. And I, I talked to her. She said she. She didn’t know anything. Yeah. You feel sure about that? Believe me, I got everything out of Nurse Whitley that I could. She said she saw Abe in his room before he disappeared, and she had no idea what happened to him after that. I am honored and humbly accept this position as your mayor.

Woo.

What the hell? Just doesn’t make any sense.

I guess I, I won’t get any answers until Paulina comes home.

We now return to our regularly scheduled program, body and Soul. All right. Tell me, Cassandra, what is this so-called a, you have up your designer knockoff sleeve. I know the truth. Charlamagne,

what truth is that? That it was you. Who held re’s twin brother thrust against his will?

You know much as I think you’re perfect for me anyway. Sometimes I find myself wishing why I thought I was born into a nice, normal family. How’d you guess? Well, I wish for the same thing, but. Nice and normal. Doesn’t get you mansions all around the world servants. Billions of dollars in assets, all of which I do appreciate.

Mm, so I’ve noticed too bad a constant war with your siblings comes as part of the package. You know what? I don’t want it to be part of the package. So to hell with all the demer shenanigans, the power struggles, the backstabbing me. Overall Demara insanity. I’m done worrying about what my brothers and sisters are planning.

Are you really? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Well, for tonight. Okay. Well, tonight is a start. Okay, so how would you like to pass the time then? How would I, I, I would like to pass the time by focusing on my beautiful fiance. I like the sound of that.

Lee do when I didn’t hear you come in. Well, I did not expect you to be back so soon, so. How was your visit with father? Oh yeah. You know, it was, um, fine. Fine, huh? Not demoralizing and or infuriating. He sends his love. Mm. And also unsolicited advice about how I need to pick Johnny Demara over Dr. Tri then start settling down and producing grandchildren.

Am I right? He may have said those things. I wasn’t religious thing. Which is always an excellent way to go when it comes. Tohin a k a dear old dad, but enough about him. What was this plan you were talking about? Plan. I heard you on the phone when I walked in. You were asking about some next steps and a big plan, so why don’t you tell me what you’re up to, bro.

Plot in your demise. That’s ridiculous. Who are you talking to? That’s not what you think. Oh, it’s exactly what I think, and I should call the police right now. And tell them what, that you’re violating the terms of your release that you’re intending to commit frat side and should be back behind bars where you belong.

But as you know us to mirrors, we prefer to settle our own scores. And what does that mean? It means, dear sister, that you have greatly underestimated me. If you think that I’m going to be an easy target, you are sadly mistaken, which is why you are finished here, finished pack up your things. I want you out of this house immediately.

You can’t kick me out of this house. Oh, I just did. I have as much right to be here as any of Stefano’s children. Wrong. You have no rights at all where this house is concerned. That’s a lie. It belonged to father. It used to belong to father, but since he’s passing it has changed hands many times. Stefan was in possession of the D before his untimely death, upon which his widow Gabby inherited it.

But once I returned to Salem, I convinced the bank to transfer the mortgage back into my name, meaning I decide whose eyes under this roof. No, that can’t be true. Oh, it’s true. And it’s happening. So instead of darkening my doorstep, why don’t you go and stay with whomever you were conspiring with on that phone,

Molly? Out with it. Let’s hear about this plan of yours. It’s none of your concern, Jing Ween and just because we live together doesn’t give you an all access pass to my personal life. Oh, so it’s a personal plan, not business. Well, now I’m really curious. Just let it go Jinen. Why should I? We both know, I’m gonna find out eventually, especially since I’m just gonna keep hounding you and hounding you, and generally making your life miserable until one day you finally can’t take more, okay?

Okay. Okay, fine. I’ll tell you. Yeah, I knew I’d get you to crack. So what is it? What’s this big plan?

I’ve hired a matchmaker.

No worries. You’re so mad. I’m yours.

Yeah, Roman. Thanks for the update. Keep us posted. What did he say? Well, he is retracing the officer steps thinking maybe they missed something. But so far no luck. But don’t worry, he’s still working on it. Oh, well it does make me feel better knowing that all the Abe’s best friends are on the case. Listen, it’s just a matter of time before we catch a break.

Oh, I just, I just hate waiting. Ah, I feel so helpless. That is not something that I’m used to. We kinda know better than most what it’s like to worry about someone that you love. Of course you do. If anybody knows what I’m dealing with, this, uh, you two and Roman, you, you thought that your wives are lost to you forever.

Yeah, but they weren’t. And Abe isn’t lost to you either. Paulina, your husband’s coming home to you.

When is she going to be back? Need answers answer me, Charlamagne. How long did you really think that you could keep it a secret? Keep What a secret. Oh, don’t play dumb. I know that you held thrust against his will while the entire town was searching for him. Admit it.

Well answer her Charlamagne.

Hey Bob, did you miss me? Helena? Oh, look at you. I see you watching my show. I knew you were gonna get into Body and Soul.

Oh, you didn’t have to stop it on my account. It’s just getting to the good part. Besides, I have to put away all the groceries before the frozen fish sticks start to haw. Those fish just can wait. You and I need to talk. Oh, that sounds serious. What’s this about? Go for starters. Why the hell didn’t you tell me that?

I was mayor of this town. Mayor, yes. Mayor of Salem. Now, what the hell else are you lying to me about?

I know I’m not the first person dealing with a missing loved one. Oh, dear God. Not knowing where Abraham is, seeing him in my mind’s eyes suffering, terrified, wondering why the hell he hasn’t been rescued yet, Paul? Oh, I guarantee you that wherever it is, he knows for a fact and you, all of us, we’re searching high and low for him, but we’re not gonna give up.

He knows that. And don’t forget, Abe is a very recognizable figure in this town. If he’s lost here in Salem, someone’s gonna recognize him and run him right home, but no one has. So what, what, what are you saying? I mean, if Colin Bedford doesn’t have Abe stashed away somewhere, he hasn’t wandered off, where else could he be?

You got your memory back. No. I was watching your soap opera when they cut in to a press conference of me making an acceptance speech for Salem’s mail race. Press conference now. What the hell’s going on here? You told me that I owned an ice cream shop. You did own an ice cream shop baby, that the, these tapes are 15 years old and you admit I was elected mayor.

Well, yes. Yes. But your time in office was short-lived, and after that you soured on politics and then you opened your ice cream shop, which was very well run, by the way. Well, why was I mayor for only a short time? Well, you know, things happen. What happened? Oh, aim Now answer me, dammit. What happened? Well see.

Once you were elected, your political rival had you impeached for no good reason what it was. My rival, a horrible, horrible man named EJ de.

You don’t have to do this, ej I I. You have it all wrong. I wasn’t trying to hurt you. I’m done with this discussion. I can have Harold pack your bags and put them in the car. I can have them simply thrown on the street. You decide I am not leaving this house. Oh, you won’t go quietly. Fine. I’ll just have security remove you.

Life force. You don’t want to do that. Oh, just when I think you’ve joined us in the modern age. What a matchmaker. Really, what do you think I should do? Uh, have you ever heard of dating apps? They work for everyone else living in this century. I’m sure they do, but the idea of finding love through swiping doesn’t really appeal to me.

Mm. So you decided to hire an old, busy body to find you a girlfriend, someone who understands me and what I’m looking for. Yes. Father talked to you into this, didn’t he? I made my own decisions. Jing, when. And why wait, considering what came in the mail today?

Your final divorce papers? My marriage to Gabby is officially dead. Thanks to the man who killed it.

Oh my God.

I think I just saw my life flash before my eyes. So French, call it the little dad. Oh, not a bad way to go. No. Come here. I just can’t believe we’re here again in this house, in this bed. I’m sorry. It’s not the mess. We, we will reclaim that soon enough. I don’t care what bedroom we’re in, as long as we’re together, out in the open and happy.

Oh, very happy. Very, very happy. And soon we’re gonna be husband and.

What is it? What’s wrong? I dunno. I dunno. I guess I just afraid to let myself be this happy again. The last time we were married, you were taken from me. Happy. Don’t think about that. It’s all in the past. I can’t. I just let it go. I. I cannot not. How do I just not remember that? I, I thought you’d been killed.

I thought that I’d lost you forever. I thought my own life was over. I’m sorry. That like I

we’re here together.

Whatcha thinking?

Stephan, how do you know that something awful isn’t waiting for us around the corner again, because it’s not Gabby, we were given a second chance and we would be fools not to take it. History’s not gonna repeat itself. I promise. I promise when everything I hold dear, nothing or no one will take me away from you again.

Let go of my hand, not until you listen to me. All right, then gimme one good reason why I shouldn’t have you thrown out on your lying murderous as with the rest of the rubbish. Because it is not you. I’m planning to kill you, idiot. It’s.

Hm, A few more of those little deaths. I might experience the real thing. Would you stop? What? Don’t joke like that. I’m serious. We don’t know how strong Jake’s heart is. Don’t stop it. Don’t say that too dark. Isn’t that what you love about me? One of the things, one of the many things. Oh, I love you too. You ready for round three?

All ready? I was gone. For too many years and we have some serious making up to do. Okay, well, how about we move this bucket to the shower, then I like where your head’s at. Tell you what. Why don’t you go into the bathroom, make sure the water’s nice and hot. All cut down in the kitchen, have cook. Fix us a nice romantic dinner on the terrace while we’re done.

Girl could get used to that. That’s the plan. All right. Go.

I’m sorry, Lee. It’s not like I wasn’t expecting it. Still, I’m staying hitting black and white. Can’t be easy. You okay? I live. You win some, you lose some, right?

You know what I gotta say? This feels like progress. My divorce. You accepting your divorce? I mean, you aren’t tearing the room apart. You aren’t blotting some desperate scheme to try and hold onto. Gabby, I’m really proud of you, Lee, for finally moving on.

You want to kill Stephan? What has that brother ever done to you? Well, it’s nothing personal, really nothing personal. Said the Cobra as has swallowed the gerbil. Let’s just say, I wanna shake the table a bit. What the hell does that mean? It means that with Stephan outta the way, Gabby will be vulnerable, freeing up power in the family and the company.

So this is about you wanting more of father’s fortune. You are reel that heartless. You would do that to your own flesh and blood. Spare me the melodramatic soliloquy on Demira family loyalty.

Father wasn’t above eating his young, metaphorically speaking. At least I hope. If you think father would want Stefan’s own sister to kill him, then you didn’t know him at all. And you did Elvis. You think his legacy belongs to you? The little boy who he sied with a buck tooth IMB via Turkey baster. Don’t you dare speak about my mother again.

Oh, get over yourself, junior. Your self righteousness is beginning to bore me. E. Besides what do you care what happens to Stephan? Because he’s my brother and he’s a decent human being. Oh, come on. You two have been fighting for months now. You can’t think he’s that decent. Look the way I see it, Stephan’s untimely death could be good for both of us.

It would help us both. Think about it, EJ with one less Tamara in the picture. There’d be a much bigger slice of lip pie for you and I, right? Father,

we believe that someone other than Bedford is holding you Captain. But who and why? Well, we don’t know yet, but Abe is a very powerful and influential man with an equally formidable wife with a serious bank account. Well, but if this is about money, why haven’t they contacted me for ransom? Because we’re not sure.

It’s money they’re after. Well then what the hell are you sure about? I’m, because it feels like you’re guessing and my husband’s life is at stake. Oh, whoa, Paul. It’s okay. It’s okay. I’m, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. It’s okay. It’s okay. I didn’t, I didn’t mean to snap at you. It’s just, I, I’m so frustrated. More than frustrated.

I’m losing my mind here. Listen, we understand. Believe me. I know. I know, I know. I know. You’re doing your best. And I know you love Abe too. Well, that’s a fact. We do. It’s just, you know, so hard I going to the worst case scenario. I mean, oh, we know baby. He could, could be. He could be. No, no, no, no, no, no. Okay.

No, no. Okay. I’m not going there. We’ll not go there. I will not. Okay, good. And we won’t either. Now listen, Abe is one of the toughest dudes I know. He is a survivor and wherever he is, he’s gonna survive this too.

You keep calling me a good and honest man. Oh, you are baby. You are a honest day. That’s what they always call you. You know, my memory may not be much, but I know that. Honest. A is someone else. Okay. But you are a great man too. And why was I impeached? Uh, that’s not really something that you usually like to talk about.

I want to talk about it now. Okay. Okay. Well, it was all sparked by your rival EJ Demara. When he, uh, accused you of cheating, and somehow he was able to prove it, so I did cheat. Oh, it, it isn’t that simple. You wanted to win because you wanted to serve the great citizens of Salem. You knew that you were the best man for the job.

I cheated to when? No, no. It was your shady campaign manager who put you up to it? Jennifer Horton. Jennifer Horton. Does that name sound familiar? Vaguely. I, uh, who is she? To me? Just nobody. Nobody that you need to know. Just not a good person. And this, uh, well, my opponent, uh, ej, this character ej, uh, what happened to him?

Well, uh, ej uh, unfortunately is, uh, still the mayor of Salem. In fact, for many, many years, he’s the most popular mayor that we’ve ever had. Even more so than Doug Williams.

This doesn’t feel right. Just doesn’t feel right. Well, why do you say that, baby? Well, I mean every, everything you. You’re telling me about my life. Every bone in my, my body

is telling me it’s different.

Are you okay? Pooky? I, I hate to see you so upset. It just, It’s just jarring seeing yourself on video like that. It, it’s, it, it, I ever try my hand in politics again. I mean, after, after the impeachment. I’m afraid not. It was all so painful that you want to leave that messy world behind you and stick to what you know best.

Ice cream making people happy, right? Oh, you know, maybe losing your memory is not such a bad thing. How do you figure? Well, most people are bogged down by memories of the past and the baggage that they have to carry of all the mistakes that they’ve made and all the pain that they’ve endured. But, but not you, you, you have a clean slate.

You get to start fresh. You have a live in the present. Right, right. Memories. The memories are what we are. Paulina. I mean, I, I don’t even know what kind of man I am without a memory. I. Do you understand? You know what, it is getting late. I better start that dinner. You must be so hungry. Yes, I, I got fish sticks coming up hot soon.

I really am proud of you, Lee. So you keep saying no. Hey, bear is repeating. I mean, when I think of all the crazy things you did to try and keep Gabby around, having stuff brainwashed, uh, using your Demer shares to try and bribe her into staying with you. Okay. Do we have to go down the whole painful list?

Okay. I’m just saying I hated seeing you like that. So obsessed. I wouldn’t say I was obsessed. You wouldn’t really, I mean, Again, you brainwashed a dude. I loved Gabby, and I believe that when you love someone, you fight for them, right? But there’s fighting and then there’s lying, kidnapping, blackmail. Let’s be real here, Lee.

Okay, you, you morphed into this Lovesick maniac that I didn’t even recognize. You lost all perspective where Gabby and Stephan were concerned. You’re exaggerating. Am I? Lee, you are out of control. Hey. It really worried me, which is why I am so relieved that you’re finally over Gabby and you put all of this behind you before you could do something that you couldn’t take back.

So did you make any special requests for our special dinner tonight? Mm, I made all sorts of special requests, but. I’m not telling you what they were. Oh, come on. I know it’s a surprise. You’re such a tease. I know I am. But you love it. I promise. You’re not gonna be disappointed, but you have to wait till we get downstairs to see for yourself.

Take a moment. Ej. Imagine the possibilities. Chad is no longer interested in Demara Enterprises. Tony semi-retired. Happy to globe trot around the world with that vapid wife of his, with Stephan out of the way. Father’s legacy is ours for the taking. Aren’t you forgetting someone? Am I Kristen, you are co-conspirator.

That was her on the phone earlier. Wasn’t it enough with the 20 questions? Are you gonna keep my plans for Stephan to yourself or not? Sorry Megan. I may have done some despicable things in my life, but I’m not going to conspire to kill my own brother. Where are you going to warn Gabby and Stephan?

Oh, look at what you’ve made me do.

I’ve taken up enough of your time. I should leave so you two can concentrate on finding my husband, Paul. Listen, we know how brutal it can be to wait these things out. And you know what? You’re welcome to stay in our guest room if you like. No, no, no, no. Chanel will be waiting for me at home. Make me a promise.

Oh yeah. What’s that? That you will not rest until you find my Abraham. We’re gonna bring him home, Paulina, whatever it takes. And that’s a fact.

Oh, you’ve gotten mad Cassandra. I didn’t have to hold thrust against his will. He was with me because he wanted to be with me the hell he was. How else would have gotten him to stay away from his family for so long? Oh, I’ll tell you how. Because just like his brother, Rhett, he had amnesia.

Well thrust and red hat amnesia. What are the odds of that? You know what? That’s enough of the stories for one date. Why don’t we play a fun game of checkers?

Okay, that is enough. Talk about Gabby for one night. Tell me about this matchmaker. What do you wanna know? Everything. When is she gonna start hooking you up with Salem’s most eligible woman? Well, I just signed up today and like you heard when you walked in, we still need to iron out a plan of action.

Right. And, uh, we know for sure that this matchmaker is solid. How did you find her or him? I just searched matchmakers and the one I chose was well. She has tons of great reviews as in the business, apparently. So then tell me what was said about her and the reviews. I mean, Hmm, let’s see. Well, the one that stood out to me was when it comes to giving her clients their heart’s desire, she’s known for having quite the killer instinct.

Oh, thank God for these secret passageway. Hey, ej, can’t very well carry you through the front door, so what am I gonna find out? What’s being served? Cook said he’s going to. On the Paris when I heard somebody in there,

it’s weird. I, I could have sworn I heard a voice. Maybe it was you now who, what the hell happened here? You know, these cleaning ladies need to be a little more careful. Spaces worth of fortune. Well, I’m sure EJ has it. Heavily insured. Probably gonna end up making a fortune. Remind me to ask him about that.

Are we gonna stay here crying about broken pottery? Are we gonna go outside to check out that delicious dinner? You plan after you?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

4:00 AM in Hong Kong. I wonder, I feel like crap. Survived a life consultation with Father and come back to Bills.

And this,

that must be death wrapping out my door.

Close enough. Hello, Mr. Shin. I’m Megan. I know who you are. You’re Megan Hathaway, the one who stole that crystal from me, please. It was never really yours in the first place. And it’s Megan Deira. Yeah. Well it’s great catching up. Not so fast. You and I have important business to discuss.

Yeah. More. There you are. Oh, somebody’s in a good mood. I just got the best news ever. Yeah. My divorce, Lee, it’s final. You are looking at a single woman. Oh, not for long. You hear that? What? What? Wedding bells in the distance of getting closer all the time. Oh, Stephan, I cannot wait to be your wife and I can’t wait to be your dooring husband.

And as Salem’s preeminent power couple, you’ll have the world by the colons. Yes. We’ll, oh, I wouldn’t be so about that.

Oh, hey Eric. Hi. Hey. Any news with Abe? No. Sloan’s brother continues to deny that he’s had any involvement in his disappearance. Sloan believes him. So does Rave. Yeah. Well, I’ll keep praying that they find Abe soon.

Hey, wait,

how are you? How’s everything going? I assume you’re talking about the pregnancy. I mean, EJ and I have a meeting with the Perinatologist tomorrow, you know, specialist for high risk pregnancies. Right. Well, I hope everything works out. That should tell you that you can have e j’s, baby

lady whistleblower can blow it out as whistle. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Sarah and Xander are over for good. There’s no reason to think that that would change.

Okay. You can do this. Funny girl. You can keep Sarah’s pregnancies. See if get easy peasy. Just gotta stay away from Xander. Some just don’t. Okay. Yes, I heard you coming. How did you know it was me? Uh, can’t you see why you’ve got those clo hoppers? I mean, they make a certain flop every step you take and people could hear miles away.

I don’t have particularly big feet. And they certainly don’t flop, do they? No, no, no, no. Don’t do, don’t you come near me. Just, just, just, just please stay the hell away from me.

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

Displaced. It was only to freak out. Oh, wait, I know exactly why this is happening. You do. Who told you? No one told me. I just know I, you’re still afraid of me because I. Held you captive, disguised as a killer clown. Yes. That’s, that’s why I freaked out when I saw you. Yeah, I understand. Probably having trauma flashbacks, a big flopping clown shoes coming towards you.

I clown feet is exactly right. Boy, I wasn’t wearing CLA shoes when I kidnapped you. It’s true, but you know what? That’s not really important. The important thing is that that is just so far in the past and I’ve forgiven you, and I know you would never, ever do anything like that again. And the only reason that you were driven to do such dastardly deeds is because he wanted to provide for Sarah and what husband wouldn’t wanna provide for his wife.

Huh? Huh uh, ex-wife. Sarah’s your ex-wife. Two are divorced, she is gone and she is never coming back and you two are never getting back together. He’s Bonnie Leon thick. I’m sorry, I really stepped in. I just know that I meant well. Please meant well, but reminded me how much Sarah needs me. Oh, but she doesn’t, I mean, it’s not hate that she feels, I mean, how would I know how she feels now?

E, even if it is hate that she feels that could change. Because you know what? Things can change. You know what they say? Nothing is for certain except for death. And babies of change. Death attacks isn’t change. Right? Those things are definitely certain. Oh yeah. Ooh, glad we’re on the same page. It is hot here.

I’m gonna get going. Okay. Bonnie, if you have forgiven me and you’re not scared of me anymore, Then why did you shriek and run away when I walked in?

Well, there are no guarantees, but a lot has changed since Holly and there have been some major advancements in the treatment of high risk pregnancies like mine, right?

I hope they tell you some really good news tomorrow. I mean, after everything you’ve been through, you really deserve this.

Yeah. I don’t know about deserving it, but I am happy that maybe I get to be a mom again.

Okay. Yeah. You, you take care of yourself. Yeah. You too,

isn’t it? A little too early in the morning for a drink brother. Shouldn’t you be heading to the office? I would like to wine, wine first, if that’s all right with you. Tough morning. Just somewhat intense, but in a good way. We do get a lot of research trying to find the best possible specialist for Nicole and flying in an expert tomorrow, uh, perinatologist, who will hopefully tell us that Nicole will be able to carry out Charles the time well, I really hope it works out for you guys as you are.

Thank you. And the timing could be perfect because by that time you’ll likely be free. You know? Once the little one comes around and you could be a stay at home dad. It’s like a trend now, isn’t it? All my days will be anything but free when this child is born. You see, I’ll be very busy ensuring that my son or daughter inherits the legacy of our father’s company.

So I will be doing everything on my power to stop Salem’s most incompetent couple from leaving it in ruin.

You don’t have the votes to stop us ej, nor do you have the votes to stop me. No. We damn well do because not only do we have each other’s vote we have Kristen. Kristen. Yes, I know you believe you’ve secured her support. I also know how to be quite mercurial mercurial. Fickle tends to turn on a dime, as I’m sure you two have observed, but that notwithstanding, I have secured our other sister’s vote.

So you may have Kristen’s support. For the time being, I most assuredly have Megan’s, I assume you still have eyes and ears of the company, Mr. Shin? I do. So then you are aware of the fact that there is a power struggle brewing, hard to mess trust. You’re here representing ejs interests. I am here representing my own interests.

You see, my little brother Elvis is a sweet boy, but when it comes to being ruthless in cutthroat, he doesn’t batten my league. Well, you must know I’m out at Tamara, so not quite sure you still have a vote, which I promised to Gabby Hernandez. Who is madly in love with my other half-brother Stephan. So you’ve pledged your loyalty to a woman who’s pledged hers to another man, Wiley.

Why are you going to let someone who used you and betrayed you, keep you from getting what you want?

Chloe. Hey. Hey. I hope I’m not interrupting. No, of course not. Come here and of, oh, I’ve missed you, my friend. We have fairly spoken since I left Basic black. Uh, yeah, it’s my bad. I I should have been better at keeping in touch. No, the phone works both ways. How, how are you, how’s it been teaming up with EJ at the mothership?

Oh, well that’s been eventful, in fact. Um, Life in general has been pretty eventful. Mm. Well, now you’ve got my attention. What’s been going on with you? Well, for starters, uh, I’m pregnant.

Hey, hey, how’s your meeting Go with the da. It’s a disaster actually. My brother’s still refusing to plead guilty and trusts out for blood.

He’s facing a lot of time in prison for what he did up on that rooftop. There’s nothing really I can do to help him.

I know what he did was unspeakable to Mayor Carver and Paulina Chanel. But you know, he’s, he’s still, my family’s is the only family I have left. You have me. I’m here for you.

Huh? So now you wanna know why I freaked out when I saw you? Yeah, you totally freaked out on me. I mean, why did you scream at me to get back? Well, because I feel cold coming on and I didn’t want you to catch it. And you know that feeling when you just have the s just going, oh. When was that? Was that sneeze or a cough?

Oh, both. I’m sorry, my nose is running and my throat’s kinda scratchy. Ooh, I should, I should just probably be wearing a, a mask, you know? I don’t wanna infect people with myy germs. Yeah. So, right. Yeah. Look, I was actually looking for a Maggie shirt around upstairs, I think. Okay. You know what? I’m just, I’m just gonna get the long way around.

Understand this. Hey, it’s a good idea. You probably, yeah. Should go.

Oh wow. She’s pregnant. What? She told you she’s pregnant? No, she didn’t tell me. I just got a news alert. A news alert? Yeah. But you just said she told you she was Bonnie, who do you think was pregnant?

I mean, I wish I could have helped him. If I would’ve known what was going on, I could have stepped in. I could have tried to stop him. It’s, you’re here for him now. He’s damn lucky to have you in his corner. This big sis is there for thanks. I’m lucky to have you in my corner.

Sorry, Eric, I just can’t risk losing you to Nicole. This baby ends up being yours. That test has to come back negative.

When I said someone was pregnant, who did you think I meant? Who? Um, who it was, was the. The person you said was pregnant is who I thought it was. Knew. So you knew that Nicole was pregnant? Nicole, of course I knew. But have lady at Whistleblowers column only just published to the site. She just published on the maybe for.

You, it just published, but I, I just happened to be one of Lady Whistleblower’s premium. I. Subscribers. Mm-hmm. Oh, you’re a little blowy. Ah, that’s me. Not really fond of that name, but uh, then again for 4 99 a month, I get all the dish on Salem’s hot dos before the general public. I see. Yeah. Well, we’re happy to have you.

I’m so glad I approved that revenue stream. Oh, me too. I wouldn’t wanna be in the dark when the next big secret drops. I hate to be the last one to know about that stuff. Right. Yeah. Well, anyway, I really should find Maggie, who’s great, catching up better. What do you have to tell Maggie? Anything juicy? I, well, I don’t think it’s anything that Lady Whistleblower would report on, but Maggie offered me Alex’s job at Titan, but I’m gonna turn her down.

Oh, sander. But I bet that position pays big bucks. It does, but as much as I love Maggie, I, all right. Being my own boss at the Spectator just means so much to me. Ah, I don’t wanna sabotage what’s happening between me and Chloe, between you and Chloe Lane. Do you know any other clothes? Kardashian, but that’s with a K.

Please don’t tell me you and Chloe are an item. Well, I don’t know if I’d use that exact term, but since she’s someone that I greatly admire, I’m happy to say that we are somewhat involved. Somewhat. What does somewhat mean exactly? How involved are you? Two? Wait, I’m sorry. So. You were saying that you cheated on EJ with Eric?

No, no, no. I did not cheat on ej. I just had a a one night stand with Eric, and it was while we were under the influence of those damn hallucinogenic biscuits. So it was just that one time. Yeah. You guys didn’t use birth control? Well, we were higher than kites, Chloe. Oh, so you didn’t know who the baby’s father was, but now you know.

Yes. I had a paternity test done. And I found out that EJ is the father, and it’s such a relief. But now my biggest concern is if I can carry this baby to term, and I know I don’t have to tell you, it’s, it’s been my biggest problem. Right. And if you need me again too, Nicole, I’m here. No, no, Chloe, thank you so much.

But there have been a lot of advances in treatments for high risk pregnancies, so EJ and I are gonna see specialists tomorrow to determine if I can carry this baby myself. Well, that’s so wonderful. I’m, I’m praying that you get good news. Me too. So is EJ happy? He is over the moon and you. Are you in love with ej?

He’s been so good to me. Wow. That does not answer my question Well, that is the best answer that I have for you right now, Chloe. Okay. Well, I know that you said you’re relieved that EJ is the father of your baby because you two are dating and Eric is now with Sloan. But no, no, no. Chloe, please do not go there.

I’ve had a hard enough day as it is, and I, since I already know what you’re gonna ask. No, no. I do not wish, nor have I been wishing that Eric is the baby’s father. What? What is that look? Just makes me think of that line from Hamlet. You know the one that goes, the lady doth protest Too much me thinks.

Eric, when I walked in here before you looked like you had something weighing on you. Oh, please. You’ve been here for me. I wanna be here for you too. Oh, my partners, right?

I ran into Nicole in the square. I see. You know what? Maybe we shouldn’t talk about this. No, no. It’s okay. You don’t have to hide your feelings from me, Eric. Look, I know how disappointed you are. How you wish. You’d have been the father of Nicole’s baby.

I would not put too much stock in Megan. I mean, aside from her being a homicidal mania. Oh, as opposed to Kristen. You mean post to child for rationality and trustworthiness? Okay. Yeah, yeah. Okay. We, we, we both have seen Kristen and Megan put their heads together. You know, they joined forces to get out of prison, so obviously they’re thickest thieves.

So what makes you think they’re gonna stop now and dilute their power by voting separately? Gabby has a point. So ej, maybe it’s time you and I bury the hatchet and not in each other’s backs. So you are suggesting me what? Consolidate power of formal lines. That’s exactly what I’m suggesting for our sisters.

Take both of us down.

I know what it’s like to be slighted, rejected. And to lose the love of one’s life to someone who’s unworthy. Well, that just makes it all the more painful, doesn’t it? So you consider your brother unworthy, my half-brother, please. Birthed by the loaves from Living Aloma

inferior stock. Not to mention that she’s a total psycho. So if I’m reading you right, you’re assuming that my losing Gabby to Stephan and the resulting animosity I therefore harbor towards him and her would motivate me to become entangled in your machinations to take over the company by job. I think he’s got it.

No, not gonna happen. You see when it comes to being ruthless and cutthroat. I don’t batten your league either. Mr. Demara don’t be so modest. Mr. Shen. You see Kristen did fill me in on your own machinations to take over enterprises. How you seduced Gabby? How you brainwashed Stephan? And how you would’ve pulled the plug on him Had Kristen not stopped you?

No. Perhaps the next time that that swine is on death’s door, you won’t be quite so lucky, my son. You seriously considering killing your own brother?

You know, my father was a master chess player, used the game as a metaphor for life and taught me to do the same.

That doesn’t answer my question. I thought that was a rhetorical one. It wasn’t Mr. Shen. I see both of my brothers as kings. Slow moving pieces. Who can move only one step in every direction forward, backward, to the side or diagonally. Whereas I see myself as a queen who is free to move around the board in any direction she chooses.

Mm. But there’s one more queen on the board. Is there not? Gabriela Hernandez. Yes, and I have been watching her moves very closely. Turns out that she’s an emotional queen, isn’t she? She’s hotheaded, high strung one who might be easily knocked off her pants. By the elimination of her king, which is why I’ve come to you.

Now, speaking for myself, I can say that the thought of Hope Brady, with the man that I love leads me to impulses that can only be described as homicidal. So I ask you, Mr. Hin, as you sit here in your sister’s, Modest department. No job, no power. And no love. And then you think of the man that took all of that from you.

Can I safely assume that you might perhaps be feeling burned, humiliated? Would winked and therefore aching for retribution.

Megan is still fixated on Bo Brady and Kristen is obsessed with Brady Black. I doubt that they are in any shape to make any major moves. Hm, wrong. Unlike men, women are excellent multitaskers, and those two are no exception. They can chew gum and walk all over you at the same time. Believe me, the only woman I’m concerned about is the one in this room.

If I’m, again, foolish enough to ally myself with my brother, I know it won’t be long before he throws me over in an attempt to secure said woman my share of power. Okay. Gabby and I have made no secret of our aspirations, but maybe it’s time for the three of us to consider our life balance. Life balance.

What the hell are you talking about? You’re right about me and Stephan. My divorce from Lee just came through and Stephan and I are getting married and you have a new baby on the way. So you are suggesting, I am suggesting that there is more than enough money and power to go around De Marisol. The three of us can find a way to peacefully coexist and eliminate our mutual enemies.

Maybe just, maybe we can all start the next chapter of our lives with a modicum of harmony. What do you say, brother?

So it’s not about Nicole. I just, I really wanted to be a father. But between Judah’s pregnancy termination, and now this, maybe faith is just trying to tell me. It’s not in the cards for me. I don’t believe in fate or destiny or whatever else you wanna call it. And Eric, why isn’t it in the cards for you to have a kid?

Huh? It hasn’t happened just because. It just hasn’t happened. It doesn’t mean it can’t. You’re young, you’re healthy, so why don’t you have a baby with me?

Well, I’m protesting because it’s not helping Chloe, and it’s pretty insensitive too to suggest that I would rather have Eric be the father, especially since I told you he’s not. And, and, and what good does it do to wish otherwise? You are right. I’m sorry my friend. I’m, I’m sorry too. I, I know that you didn’t mean to upset me.

No, I, I didn’t, but you’re right. I was being insensitive. I wasn’t thinking. I look, Eric and Saloon are together now, and EJ and I are together, and EJ is my baby’s father, and I am so grateful. And he’s been nothing but sweet to me and patient. And we are committed to each other and this baby. Well, that’s good.

I’m, I’m happy for the both of you. I’m, I’m praying everything works out. Thank you. And what about you? What about me? I never imagined you working here at The Spectator. Yeah, me neither. But Sander offered me this job and. He doesn’t really take no for an answer,

so you and Sandra are working together and living together Uhhuh, and by the look on your face. Please do not tell me something is going on between the two of you.

Sandra, answer me. How involved are you with Chloe Lane? Why not see you care, Bonnie? Because I’m curious. That’s all. I’m sorry, but I’m not the kind to kiss and tell you kissed. Oh, come on. Spill it. Cat’s outta the bag here. All right. We did share one kiss. Actually, there were three kisses, but I got slapped the first two times.

Oh, so only one kiss where you didn’t get slapped. I’ve already shared too much Bonnie, and to be honest, I don’t really understand why you’re so interested in how many times I kissed Chloe or any other woman. I mean, Why is it with you? What’s going on, Bonnie? All right, I’ll tell you. Okay, Xander, you are making a huge mistake and you need to stop this kissing business with Chloe immediately.

Why? Why? Because of Sarah.

Bonnie, Sarah and I are divorced as you just brought up. She and I were, we’re through. We don’t even talk anymore. That’s beside the point. How is that beside the point, you may not be in touch. All right? But gotta believe me when I tell you, if you get serious with Chloe, it’ll hurt Sarah’s feelings. And you have to believe me when I tell you, Bonnie, that.

Sarah’s doesn’t give a damn what I do. She’s too busy doing whatever with Rex. No. No, she’s not. That’s what I thought meant. I saw her and saw what conditions she what You saw her, her condition. Is she okay? No, she’s fine. She, she’s fine. Yes. I saw her in Chicago when I went to visit Mimi. Okay, well, what’s, what’s the less about her condition?

Oh, I shouldn’t have said condition. I, I, I, men are we, wait, she’s slim. Very slim. Well, she’s not eating. Oh, no. She’s healthy, happy, happy, happy, happy. She, she hasn’t let herself go. Mm-hmm. Hmm. Good. Um. Happy for her that she’s staying fit. Yeah, it’s, it’s always a good thing. Mm-hmm. Well, it’s always a treat.

Catching up with you, Bonnie, but I really should find Maggie now ex I knowand. Really? You have to listen. I understand that you, you’re just trying helpful. But my relationship with Chloe is none of you concerned, and Sarah, she’s in the past. There’s no reason for either of us to give a damn what is.

You may think that right now, right after Sarah has the baby, You both are gonna feel very differently.

You kissed Xander? Well, I kissed him three times, but after the first two times I slapped him. So I’m not sure that those count. Oh God, I can’t believe this. Oh, come on. Listen, I know that he has a history of violence. Deceit. Have you forgotten that he left you in the clutches of a ruthless Mexican drug cartel?

Have you forgotten that? He locked me in a shark cage. He ruined my relationship. My marriage with Eric. I thought if anyone hated Xander as much as I do, it’s you. Okay? Maybe a few weeks ago I would’ve agreed with you, but. You know that people can change and the more that I’ve spent time with him, I’ve just, I’ve discovered that he has his charms.

So I, I, I don’t know what to say. It’s okay. I guess it was a bit audacious of me to suggest that we have a child together. We’ve not even been together that long, but I mean, we do love each other and we’re committed to one another. Why can’t I be the one to give you the child you’ve always wanted? Some slowness isn’t something we just decide in the wake of what happened with Nicole.

This has nothing to do with Nicole. This is about us. Eric, listen to me. I’ve lost both my parents. My brother is about to go away for a very long time. I know family’s important to you. It’s important to me too, but I let all of that get so twisted for, for the wrong reasons, his anger. A hatred, but I’m done with all of that because of you.

Because kindness and your patience, your love God have given me so much. I just, I wanna give you something that you’ve always wanted. Won’t you let me do that for you?

Sloan. I dunno. It just, it feels so, so sudden. Well, it was sudden for EJ too, but I’m sure he is over the moon about it. Yeah, he, he is de flame.

I dunno. I think that you deserve everything in this world. A little precious baby on the way. A blessing. Fiji Damira gets to be a father. Why shouldn’t you?

Well, brother.

Yeah, not interested brother, but if you and Gabby want to give up and go work on your life balance, I’ll be happy to accept your letter of resignation as co c e o of the company. Short of that shall just say that the best of

Gabby did love me once, so if something terrible should happen to Stephan. The vulnerable widow de mera could very likely turn to you for comfort. Even if she did, I moved on from her. I had to.

So you’re telling me that if I gave you the opportunity to get her back, And to get back at my brother at the same time you turn me down.

Think about it, Lee. The next move in my little game could very possibly be yours.

Oh my God, Justin, I almost totally blew it. You know me, I can talk my way out of anything. It wasn’t it very clever of me to come up with the idea that I had a bad cold. Oh. Ooh. Oh no. Oh, no, no, no. I, I think I really am getting sick.

Oh, God. Oh God. Oh God. No. God is punishing me for lying. He is.

Oh, he has his charms. What the hell is that supposed to mean? It means that he’s, he’s kind and he makes me laugh, and he’s a really good cook. Chloe, who cares if he makes you laugh and is a good cook? Zaner is the lowest of Lowe’s, and you know that as well as I do. No, not anymore. Well, that’s because you’re not thinking straight.

Xander is a horrible excuse for a human being. His smug, arrogant, exterior hides all that rotten inside. Oh, come on Nicole. That’s how you really feel. Don’t listen to your friends here. Nicole’s just full of Sarah grapes cuz she had her shot with me and she blew it. Oh, there it is. Stupid arrogance. You know, you really are full of it.

You were just, but her loss, no. Is your game, Chloe. If you’re not going to slap him again, please allow me.

So what do you think? Should we start trying? Not gonna answer me. My answer is, I love you better than I know slow. This isn’t something that we need to rush into and the timing is, Right. You’re still getting a big disappointment. Okay. Well, whenever you are ready to become a father, You know where to find me.

I’ll keep that in mind. You’ll definitely be the first to know.

AJ made a huge mistake. Pop his ass. Hey, we tried and under the heading of the Pride Goeth before the fall, you and I are the only ones EJ needs to worry about taking him down.

I just left you, Mr. Shin. Miss me already what we talked about, taken Stefan down by any means necessary. Yes. Amen. Why is decision Mr. Shannon. And I’m sure with your help, my brother is not long for this world.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hello? Hey, Steph, still prepping for that Zoom meeting? Yeah, I just finished going over our proposal again and I think we’re in pretty good shape. You on your way? I’m actually not gonna be able to make it. Oh no. Why not? Is everything okay? I just have something I need to take care of. I’m sorry though. No worries.

I can, um, I can just drop by your place when I’m done and fill you in. I don’t know when I’m gonna be free, um, but I’ll let you know. I, yeah. Okay. I will talk to you later. Goodbye,

Sarah. Honey, will you. Relax. Of course, I’m gonna keep your secret. I am not gonna tell another living soul that you are pregnant with Ander’s baby. You betcha. Now you take care now, hun. Okay. Okay. Bye-Bye. Oh God. That girl has wound up tighter than a $2 watch. Hey Bonnie, you’re home. I didn’t know you were here.

I just got in this second. Oh my God. How I miss you? Oh, oh, I miss you. That was Chicago. Tell me everything.

Hey, bam. What’s this? Oh, just a major ad buy from Saxon’s department store. Excellent. Wow. That’s some bottom line. How’d you get ’em to fork over so much cash? Well, I happen to know Mr. Saxon from working at Basic Black and we always got along and I just turn on a little charm and he was putting my hands see.

Told you you’d be great at this job. Ain’t glad you didn’t quit. Yeah. Today’s been a really great day. Stress free. I think it’s because Gwen’s not around.

Gwen, did you order me room service?

You do. I know you. Oh, I should hope so. Since what happened in Phoenix changed the course of my life. Oh, right, Phoenix. I remember you now you’re agent Kyle Graham, of course. You and and Billy Reid were very cute together. Very Mr. And Mrs. Smith, any who? I’d love to stay in chat. That’s so fast, Mr. Stuck. You and I have unfinished business.

Do we? We do. And you’re not going anywhere until it’s finally settled.

Like Sam through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Did I do something to offend you? Do stolen jewels ring a bell? Um hmm. No, not really. Oh, oh, you mean when I swapped out that priceless emerald for a phony? Is that what this testosterone driven posturing is all about? Because really it was just a silly prank. Nothing to get riled up about. Riled up a silly prank.

You know? Your silly prank ruined everything for me. Okay. Okay. I’m sorry. Really? I am. I didn’t know that my little caper was going to. Poor your evil plans for world domination. Listen to me, you simpering idiot. It wasn’t about world domination. It was about me becoming very, very rich. You cost me a fortune not to mention my own freedom, and now I’m going to make you pay.

So where is. Gwen. Anyway, apparently she scored some exclusive interview with Dimitri Vaughn. Ner Ner. Yeah, I heard that guy is kind of a dirt bag. Yeah. Unfortunately Dirtbag sell, but hopefully it’ll be good for our numbers and he keeps her out of your hair police for today. That is true. Well, I should get back to work or you could take a break.

I was hoping we could spend a little time together thought You think we should keep things professional here at the office? Absolutely. Professionalism is very important, but I can’t stop thinking about last night and specifically like it’s you. Me neither. So maybe Hello? You too. Oh, hi. Am I interrupting?

No, not at all. Maggie. Hi. Nice to see you. Hi. How are you, Chloe? What brings you by? Um, okay. Well, I’ll get right to the point. I don’t know if you’ve heard I had to let Alex go. I did. And good for you. Well, it might be good for you as well, sander. Because I would like to offer you Alex’s job.

Oh, hey. Hey. What are you doing here? Well, I just wanted to, oh, is this a bad time, Ms. Chad here? No, uh, he’s not. Oh, okay. Well, I just wanted to come by and tell you the good news. Well, I would love to hear some good news. What is it? I am officially employed again. Oh my gosh. That’s great. Mm-hmm. I told you Maggie would take you bash.

She needed some time to cool down. Yeah, yeah, you’re right. And she did offer to rehire me, but I turned her down.

Hey, Abby.

Can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we lost you,

and it seems like yesterday we were together. Happy raising Thomas and Charlotte.

I’m just thinking about having a new baby.

I think about it all the time.

We would’ve been successful, but we’ve had a boy girl, her,

hello. We would’ve been Christ. We were trying to juggle two kids and a newborn baby.

I know that we would’ve loved every minute of it, though.

I can picture it, you know. I could picture exactly what our lives would be like.

Sometimes it seems so real.

Feels like I never lost you.

Julie, I startled you. No, God, nevermind. You want your privacy? I’ll come back later. Please stay.

So, uh, did Thomas and and Charlotte get off? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. It all worked out. Jack and Jennifer picked him up from the airport in Boston earlier. Oh, that’s great. They’ll have a lovely visit. Yeah, I hope so. I think they needed a change of scenery. Yeah. They’ve, they’ve been acting out a bit lately. I’m sure you noticed.

It’s my fault. Yeah. I should have. I didn’t talk to him, you know, and I know they know Subc consciously, and it’s the anniversary of their mother’s passing coming up. They feel it. You know, children always understand more than we give them credit for.

Abigail is watching over you, darling. I truly believe it. Yeah, I hope so.

I wonder what she would think about me and Stephanie. Wait, I don’t understand. You turned Maggie down. So how are you employed again? I took a job at Demara. What? My cousin Brady offered me a position at Basic Blank and I accepted. So you’re working for the competition? Mm-hmm. Wow. And, um, how does Maggie feel about that?

Let me get this straight. Sorry. You, you want me to work at Titan again? Well, I floated this idea before. Surely it can’t come as a complete surprise. What about Victor? He’d never approved and he’s barely spoken to me since I quit. It’s not up to Victor. The only person who needs to be on board with this decision is you so.

What do you say?

Isn’t my granddaughter the cutest? She’s adorable. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute. Are you teaching Emily Poker? Well, yeah. You’re never too young to learn it’s math, which is what I tried to explain to Mimi and Rex, who weren’t too thrilled. I bet. So what’s going on with Sarah? What do you mean? Why on earth would you ask me about Sarah?

Well, she’s living in Chicago and she’s working with Rex, so I figured he must have mentioned her, right? Oh, yeah, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. Um, actually, I, I saw her. Oh, how is she? Oh, she’s good. I mean, she’s the same. Exactly the same. Hasn’t changed a bitch. The same old, same old. Oh, is it hot in here? Oh, hotter than Billy goat with a blow torch attack.

Need some water?

What’s going on with you? What you mean? What’s going on with me? Nothing. Well, you seem to be a little nervous. Bonnie is, there’s something wrong. Please don’t hurt me. I will give you anything you want. All I want right now is revenge. Okay. Well, if I can’t change your mind, can I please say one last thing?

Make it quick. Thank you, GWE. Save me Gwenie. Come and help me please. Going on here. What does it look like? He’s trying to kill me for heaven sake. You let him go. This is none of your concern, Gwen. Actually, it is because Maddy is my best friend, Maddy. Yeah. Maddy, you’re not the only with an alias. Kyle, do you have any idea what your best friend here did to me?

No, and I don’t care. Now, are you gonna stop this nonsense or am I gonna phone the police when I don’t think you understand? It doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is this. Do you want to go back to prison or not?

So you are really not worried about how Maggie feels? Hell no. Or Victor? Nope. Nope. Hell no. Especially after the way they treated me. I mean, come on. If, if, if Uncle Vic wasn’t so dismissive with his personal decisions, both Brady and I would still be working at Titan. And if Auntie Mag is such a good CEO O I’m sure she won’t mind a little healthy competition, I guess.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you the good news she probably get going before Chad shows up and finds us together. Don’t wanna piss off Chad. I don’t, I don’t think Chad’s showing up today. I’m pretty sure he is with Abigail. Yeah, Stephanie and, and, and I have been seeing each other for a while now. Yes.

Well, I like Stephanie. She’s a lovely person. She’s wonderful with your children, and you always seem happier when the two of you’re together. Well, I am. I still feel guilt. Guilty. You know, uh, being with someone who isn’t abbey, not always, sometimes today I do. I understand you love somebody as much as you liked Abigail, you’re always gonna feel her presence in your heart.

But I think Abigail would want you to make room in your heart or someone else, cuz Abigail would want you to be happy.

Yeah. She told me she wanted me to move on. What do you mean? Yeah. After we found out that Clyde was responsible for Abigail’s death, I came here. And I talked to her.

I know it sounds crazy, but she talked back to me. I swear to you, I saw her. I held her in my arms.

Well, that must have been comforting.

Yeah, it was.

Maybe it was just wishful thinking. You know, me telling myself what I wanted to hear, what I wanted myself to hear. Nothing is wrong with me. Nothing at all. Are you sure? Mm-hmm. Because, um, seem to be acting a little strange.

It’s just probably jet lag. Jet lag. Mm-hmm. You know, you drove Chicago and we’re in the same time zone. It’s true. Silly me.

Okay, sweetheart, I can tell something’s really upsetting you, so just talk to me. What’s going on.

You know what, what you,

you are my husband, obviously. Yeah, but you’re also an attorney. I. Uh huh So, so

now you’re my attorney, which means we have attorney code privilege. Bonnie, did you do something illegal? No. No, of course not. No. I just got the secret. I wanna tell. And if I don’t tell it, my tongue is gonna explode and I just love off somebody. All right. What is it? Sarah’s pregnant with Sander’s baby.

Um, my god, I don’t know. I won’t, uh, won’t Sarah be upset if, if you are home? I, well, well, I suppose she might be, but she knows I’m fond of you. Oh, listen, to be honest, there’s a part of me that is hoping that Sarah will forgive you and she’ll come back home someday. Yeah. Well, I don’t see that ever happening, but, and honestly, I’m not sure I’m ready to abandon this newspaper just yet.

Well, wait a minute. I thought you were already taking a step away because it was so awkward working with, you know, with Gwen. Am I wrong? No, you’re not wrong. It’s, I’ve been awkward as hell, but, huh. I dunno. Certain things about the job have improved recently.

Oh. Well, okay, you just take some time and think about it. Not too much time though. I do need to replace Alex sooner than later. And I really do hope it’s you. Of course. Oh, I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Wonderful. Chloe, it was so nice seeing you. Oh my goodness gracious. I see you too. Oh, listen.

Would you tell Parker that? I absolutely loved his birthday gift. He got me. Of course. I’ll tell him. Okay. So nice to see you. Oh, it’s so nice to see you. Think about it.

How is unexpected? Yeah. Well, Maggie obviously thinks very highly of you. I feel the same about her, but No, I mean, I’d be crazy to go back to work at time, wouldn’t I? Then why didn’t you just say No, I didn’t wanna be rude. Or maybe deep down, you actually want the job.

So what’s it going to be? Are you going to call a truce or am I going to call the police?

No, no need to call the police. I apologize, Mr. Stark. I shouldn’t have manhandled you. Oh, that’s okay. Normally I enjoy a good man handling. You’re right. It was too easy. Anywho, I have got to get to work. Guinevere, you are a lifesaver. Love you minutes.

Your best friend is, uh, yes, I know I, I know he’s a lot, but he has a good heart and he makes me laugh so,

Are you still willing to do the interview or, oh, um, of course. Brilliant. Okay. Well, I’ve, I’ve made a lunch reservation at the Bistro, so we could just head over. Actually, I was thinking, well, why not just do it here? Could be a lot more intimate.

Chad was being really vague about his plans, but I, I figured they had to be important if he was blowing off a client meeting and then it hit me. Today is the one year anniversary that’s Abigail’s death. Wow. So I’m sure he just needed some time to process that. Well, why wouldn’t he just say that? I guess because.

It’s just something he has to deal with on his own right. I mean, obviously I’m sure it’s still very painful for him. Mm. How could it not be? Right.

You know, one thing I did notice though, um, what, nevermind. Oh, Alex, what were you gonna say? Um,

he still wears his wedding ring. Yeah, he does. I think I haven’t noticed that too.

We, um, we haven’t talked about it, but I totally understand. I mean, when you love someone so much, It must be hard to let go.

Wow. You’re just so chill about all this. Just living in Abigail’s shadow. Nope, nope. Sorry. That’s not what I meant at all. That that came up very, very wrong. Um, I didn’t mean that you don’t like measure up at all because you do. Um, it’s just that you have to. Somehow, I don’t know. You have to share Chad with Abigail’s memory.

You’re a strong person, Stephanie. I know you can handle it. Chad’s really lucky to have you. You’re understanding, caring. You’re always there for him. You don’t pressure him about anything. Thank you. That was much more tactful, not only tact. That was kind and insightful. Must be the therapy. I don’t know that Dr.

Evans, Hey, she’s a genius. Yeah. Anyway. I, um, I really do hope that Chad’s okay. Yeah, me too. I know it seems impossible that you actually saw Abby, but who knows? What did Shakespeare ride in Hamlet? There are more things in heaven and earth than dreamt of in your philosophy. Maybe you did see her. I will never know that.

But I know one thing, whether you just imagined her or not, whether you just told yourself the things you wanted to hear or not. I know that she would want you to get on with your life and you know that too, don’t you?

Sometimes. Only sometimes other times I just, I’ve, I, um,

I just have this overwhelming feeling of guilt,

like I’m betraying her, you know what I mean? Well, maybe I just made up this vision of Abigail so I could give myself permission to be with Stephanie. Sleep long enough. It’s only been. A year since Chad stop, I have something to say and, and I want you to really hear me okay. There is no timetable for grief.

There is no right or wrong way to mourn, but one thing I know from living a long, long life is that guilt is corrosive. It will steal all of your happiness if you let it. So don’t you let it. You deserve to be loved. You deserve to have happiness, and not just for yourself, but for your children too. They need to see their father living a full life.

Yeah, you’re right. I see you’re still wearing your wedding ring. This is really none of my business. You can ignore anything I might say, but.

Do you think that wearing the ring is holding you back from moving on?

Yeah, maybe.

Maybe it, I just hadn’t been able to bring myself to take it off. I’m afraid that if I do, it’ll allow me

make it final and really let her go. My darling, she will never be gone. Abigail is always going to be with you in your heart and wearing a piece of jewelry, a little golden ring. It’s not gonna prove that to you. You don’t need it and you don’t have to prove it to anyone else in the world.

Another thing, the guilt that you feel, I think it’s because you are here. She’s not, it’s called survivor’s guilt,

but life is a gift. And we should treasure every single bit of it we get cuz it’s brief, it’s limited. It’s limited for all of us. So forgive yourself for finding love again, for wanting to move into the future. Forgive yourself. And be thankful for all the blessings you have and all the glorious joyous moments that are ahead of you.

Will you do that,

Mr. Vaughn Lona? I think that it’s best that we keep things strictly professional. Oh, I wasn’t suggesting otherwise. Well then why? It’s just that restaurants can be so crowded and noisy. I thought it might just be easier to do the interview here that we were not disturbed. Oh, right. Well, alright. I suppose you have a point.

Wonderful. Well then I will order us room service, my treat, of course. Oh, no, I can, no, I insist please. I think we might have gotten off on the wrong foot earlier, and I’d like to make it up to you fresh start. Of course, Mr. Von Lena, uh, as I said last night, please call me Dimitri. All right. Well, thank you in advance for lunch, Dimitri, and for the interview.

Hmm. Normally I, uh, I detest interviews. For some reason, I’m looking forward to this one. Something tells me that you and I are gonna get along

well, to be honest, I mean, God, part of me would just love to go back to Titan, I mean, Bro, not face to dream about being part of the family business and finally feeling like I belonged. I have to say, I mean, it would be so satisfying to go back and just rub it in Victor’s face showing that he made a mistake by not believing in me.

I could see why that would be satisfying. So I guess you’re taking the job

actually. I think I’m gonna turn it down. You are? Why? Well, as much as I enjoy spending time with Maggie, I enjoy spending time with you much more. Listen, we already live together and this job. Yeah, the job, right? I mean, I can’t abandon you to battle Gwen or by yourself. That wouldn’t be fair, would it? So what, you’re staying here for me?

Yeah, I guess I am.

How on earth could Sarah be pregnant with Xander’s baby? She left town months ago. Well, she was pregnant before she left. She just didn’t tell anybody. Why not? Isn’t it obvious? She thinks Sander is a dangerous criminal. She’s trying to protect her unborn child. Yeah, I guess I can see where she’s coming from.

I mean, he did hold you and Susan hostage. Mm-hmm. Which led to Susan’s death. She rest in peace. Well, if Sarah didn’t want anyone to know, why did she tell you? Well, I ran into her, bless her heart. It’s kinda hard to hide your pregnancy at this stage. So she tried to convince me that the father was Rex, which of course I didn’t believe, and then she finally confessed, but she begged me not to tell anyone her secret, but holy moral doesn.

It’s a huge of a secret for me to hold it. I just had to tell someone. Yeah. I understand Justin, this has to stay between us. No one, not even Maggie can know that she’s pregnant, who’s pregnant.

Hi Maggie. I didn’t know you were home. I just got back. So who’s pregnant? And why am I not allowed to know? Well, well, it’s not just you. No one can know. She wants to keep it a secret. She who? Mm-hmm. Mimi. Yes, Mimi is. She’s pregnant and she doesn’t want too many people know until she’s through her first trimester.

You know how that goes. Oh, yes. Of course. Of course. I won’t say a word. Thank you. Thank you. Well, that’s, that’s, that’s wonderful news though. No, you have to be thrilled. Oh, thrilled. If yes, the word yes. Now I have to admit a little jealous. Mm. I’d love to be a grandmother again. Oh yeah,

him. Sorry to interrupt. I just wanted to grab my paycheck.

Thanks, Xander. Are you busy or do you have time to talk about my next column? Busy. You’ll have to wait. Someone needs an answer from me. Air sap.

So that’s your definition of platonic. Interesting. Listen, Leo, can you please not mention this to Gwen? She hates me enough as it is. Girl, please. Gwen is so over that Scottish longhead has been for ages. As a matter of fact, she’s having lunch with a hot new hunky hun. Even as we speak, you know, most of our readers view you as this sort of James Bond type villain.

Who threatens to obliterate entire cities to get what he wanted. And I know that that’s, um, part of your story, but um, I would actually like to move beyond that. And, um, well, I’d like to learn more about the real Dimitri Vaughn Leischner. What would you like to know? Well, how about we start at the beginning.

What was your childhood like? My childhood. Well, I was an only child raised mainly by my mother, whom you’ve met, whom I love dearly, although I, she can be quite needy. You see, she went through a lot before I was born. And come to think of it, sometimes it felt like I was the adult in the relationship. Yes, I know what that’s like.

And, um, what about your, your father? Ah, yes, the venerable Oscar Ner. My father. My father, my father and I didn’t really have very much of a relationship because he was always off on business traveling. And when he was home, he, well, he was cold. And distant, not exactly what you would call a, a fatherly figure.

In fact, I would go as far as to say he may as well have been absent from my life altogether. Sounds like an awfully lonely childhood. Yes. Yes. I suppose it was. Of course I grew up with great wealth and privilege, and I am fully aware of how lucky I was,

but looking back, I, uh,

I would’ve traded all in for just a, a modicum of unconditional love,

if that even exists. I think it does.

Well then you’re less of a cynic than I am anyway. When you’re deprived of love, it starts to eat away at you and to cope with this deprivation, I think I developed a sort of a me against the world mentality. And to be honest with you, I don’t think I’ve ever been able to shake it. And I suppose that it might be that mentality that’s driven many of my, shall we say, less prudent life choices?

Ah, you mean, um, your choice to use a weapon of a mass destruction to bend world governments to your will? Uh, yes. Like that. Mm. Among others

in prison, you spend a lot of time by yourself alone with just your thoughts to keep you company and you start to wonder. How did I get here? How did I hit rock bottom,

and do you know what I realized? No, I’m very eager to hear. I realized that my need for power and money was all born from a lifelong desire just. Just to be loved.

Please feel free to scoff. I just, uh, I realize how wildly cliche that sounds, and I’m sure that now you think that I’m just some self-pitying narcissist. So if, uh, I don’t know. No, I don’t. Um, I don’t, um, actually, I, I completely get it.

I should be going. I’ve given you a lot of advice. I hope, I hope you take it to heart. I will. I appreciate everything you said. You are always. You’re so wise and caring. You really helped me, Julie. Good. Anytime you wanna talk. I’m, I’m always around. I,

I love you. She, I love you too, Julie.

I want you to know, Abby,

well, I saw you here that day and that what I said.

I will love you forever.

Oh, hello. Hi. I didn’t think I’d seen you today. I’m in. I just wanted to come by and, uh, apologize for missing the meeting today. Oh, it’s okay. The truth is, is I went to go see Abigail. That’s what I thought. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you Chad. You don’t owe me an apology.

How was the meeting? It was really good. Actually, we just finished up right before you got here. And the client wants to see the numbers you crunched. Hmm? I have them right here.

Got them right here.

Great.

Let’s get to work.

So are you still looking for that perfect love?

I suppose I am.

And um, is there anyone special? No. Perhaps, um, anyone you fancy?

Sadly, no.

Has there ever been?

Yes, yes. There was someone that I thought was perfect for me, but I kept getting hurt. So finally, as painful as it was, I had to walk away. I think you might know what that feels like. Sorry. Excuse me. Forgive me. I, uh, last night at the house, I overheard you speaking to my aunt and you said something about wanting to put someone named Xander behind you and starting fresh with someone new.

Oh yes, I suppose I did say that. I’m so sorry. I really shouldn’t have been dropping, but secretly I’m glad that I did because it made me realize that perhaps you and I have a connection. Of sorts.

Um, yes, um, it’s true. I mean, honestly, since hearing your story, I am. I think it’s quite uncanny how much we have in common. Really. It’s Imagine that Gwen’s on a date. I thought she was interviewing Dimitri Von Leischner. Oh, well she is, but you never know. One thing could lead to another. Well, I hope you’re right.

If she’s happy and moved on, then she’ll be less of a problem for Xander and me. You know, even if Gwen is out of the picture. What about Sarah Horton? What about Sarah? She and Xandr have been over for a while now. I mean, she doesn’t even live here anymore and yet her Specter always loomed large over Gwen’s relationship with Xandr.

Poor Gwen always playing second fiddle to Xander’s. Beloved Sarah, who’s to say that won’t happen to you too? That’s ridiculous. They’re, they’re done for good. Trust me. You say so.

Oh Lord. Do you think Maggie bought my story? Let’s hope. And you may wanna let Mimi know that she needs to get pregnant. A sap. That’s the only thing I can think of. This is all your fault anyway. My fault. Yes, your fault. I was a much better liar before I fell in love with you. Now I’m outta practice. Oh, well I guess I should take that as a compliment.

Yes, it’s a compliment and a curse cuz now I feel guilty for lying and I never used to feel guilty before. Oh my God. Did you see Maggie? She can’t wait to be a grandmother again. Well, she will be, won’t Sarah eventually have to tell Maggie? I mean, it’s not like she can keep this secret forever, especially from her own mother.

Oh, no, you’re right. It just, I think Sarah needs time to figure it out, you know? Well, she better do that soon, because I’m not sure how much longer you can last before you put it in Skywriting. I really not. You’re the only one I’m gonna tell. Okay. I try to do that.

All right. I have a client to meet. Okay. Then you’ll be here when I get back. Oh, God, yes. All right. And keep your mouth. Mm, yeah. Ow

you can do this bunny girl. You can keep Sarah’s pregnancy a secret. Easy peasy. You just gotta stay away from Xander.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

you’re not dressed yet. Sweetheart. One of the upsides of being a gentleman of leisure is not having a set schedule, but you do have an appointment to keep.

Lunch with Ms. Rizek? Ah, yes. That I’m not going.

Yes, this is Gwen Rizek. I’m phoning to confirm a reservation for lunch, right? Yes. It’s for two people at one o’clock. Um, and just so you know, my um, guest is Mr. Vaughn Ner. Dimitri Von Ner. So I would please like a very quiet, nice table in the corner. Private one. Thank you. Well, everything’s set with my interview with the mysterious Mr.

Von Ner. I’m telling you, Matty, this is going to be the spectator scoop of the century. How nice. So while everything’s coming up, roses for you. My life is over.

Yeah. Well, okay. Thanks Jada. Keep me posted. Okay. Sounds like there’s no news. Yeah, she says. They have no new lease. I mean, I don’t get it. How does the mayor of a town just vanish? Beats me? What about that, that Colin Bedford guy, the one that put Abe in the hospital? I mean, he’s in custody, right? No, he was just bl.

When he said he had information about where Abe is, he’d say anything to cut a deal with the cops. Yeah. Are they sure? Sloan Peterson is his lawyer and his sister and she says he doesn’t know anything. Uh, you know, I wouldn’t leave anything out of the two of them, his mouth, so. Well that is a good point, but Bedford’s in a whole lot of trouble.

If he did have Abe stashed away, I do believe he’d say so. I just, I, I think it’s ridiculous. Okay. There’s no way that Abe could have gotten out of that hospital on his own. So someone must have helped him. Someone must have seen him. That’s what I keep telling myself. Yes. Yes. Julie, I’m back in my hospital bed now.

No, no, no, honey, you don’t need to come. No, I’m fine. Well, I’m, I will be once they find out who really took Abe and where he is. Oh,

uh, I, I’ll come back after your call. No, no, no, don’t go. I need to talk to you.

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

Well, you know what, I, I can’t sit around here twiddling my thumbs any longer. What are you gonna do? Well, I’m gonna go talk to John and Steve and, uh, offer my help. Well, I don’t see them turning you down. Me neither. See you later. Oh, no, no. Please be careful. Bring him home. Will do. Hey Michaels. Hello, Kate Roman, we heard you were back in town soap.

Are you coming by for early lunch or no? No, I just, uh, wanted to see if you heard anything from Megan Hathaway. No, I haven’t heard of Peep since she came by the other day. Fuck you, me. Well, Steve says that, uh, that’s reading your bet. Yeah, I thought I would, you know, I thought I’d keep an eye on her. Felt like it’s the least I could do, but I’m assuming that you would prefer it if I just stayed away in mind of my own business.

Really? Do I have to remind you that it is not long before you turn 40? You mean for the umpteenth time? And the codicil to the will says that you, that if I am not married by the time I turn 40, I will not inherit a scent. Yes, mother. I know it has been emblazoned in my brain. Thanks to you not to mention that I read it all right here.

Where did you get that in your room? Where else, and you felt to mention a few pertinent details? Which details? Well, for one, that I need to remain married for at least a year. That’s not all. Let me see. Where’s my absolute favorite part? Uh, yes. Here it is. Now, if it is found that Mr. Von Leischner has entered into this marital contract under false pretenses, then he loses every penny, which means that not only do I have to marry this rice chick woman, but I have to remain married to her for at least a year, and I have to act as though I am besotted with her.

You don’t have to act besotted, just turn on the charm. Romance a bit. Would that be the worst thing in the world? I just got out of prison. I am ensconced in this mansion. I thought maybe I could have a little bit of fun. That might prove difficult if I’m playing the part of the devoted husband.

Okay. Tell me, my darling, why do you think that your life is over? I went to see my mother in Statesville. Why on Earth would you do that? I honestly don’t know. But you loathe her with good reason. I mean, what possessed you to go over there and see her? I mentioned her to that lady cop when she was grilling me.

Jada Hunter. Jada Hunter told you to go and see your mother? No. It just made me realize that I hadn’t visited mommy dearest once since they put her in the slammer. And so you just thought you’d take care of that today? Then did you get it over with mainly, gosh, I can see by your mood that it went swimmingly.

Did you two have a row? Please. I learned a long time ago not to contradict Diana when she’s ranting. Today’s rant was entitled, why Leo Stark is a worthless human being that nobody could ever possibly love.

I’m gonna have to call you back, Julie. Um, oh, yes. Okay, bye. Oh, um, thank you for waiting. Yes. Um, what can I do for you? Um, My name is Paulina Price, but of course, I’m sure you already know that. Yes, it’s, it’s, it’s here on your chart. I know who you are. You do? Mm-hmm. My husband suffered a head injury a few days ago, and they brought him here, and while I was waiting to hear how he was, I saw you taking care of him, and I just want to say thank you.

For what? For everything that you did for Abraham. Oh, I’m just a nurse. That’s what we do. Oh yeah. I know that is not easy. Most people give credit to the doctors for saving people’s lives, but it’s you nurses that take care of people around the clock. I don’t know what me and Abraham would’ve done without you.

Ms. King,

you there? I know that voice. I really need to talk to you. It’s important.

Ms. King is the police.

I’m gonna go now and I’m gonna lock the door behind me. I want you to listen to me very carefully. I don’t wanna frighten you, but that. Man that attacked you is still out there and he, he’s been impersonating a cop, so it’s very important not to open the door, especially if the cops show up. Okay.

Well, you, uh, you probably hate me. Well, I wouldn’t go that far. Look, Harris, I may have hated what went down with you and hope and my brother, but I’m in your debt. You stuck your neck out. For my wife, you saved Katie from Megan and that son of hers and for that, for that I will always owe you.

Perhaps Ms. Rizek isn’t the woman of your dreams. But isn’t inheriting a vast fortune worth being married for one tiny little year to a wife you don’t love? And what exactly do I need this vast fortune for? We seem to be doing pretty well around here, Dimitri. This might look like a mansion, but it’s actually a pool for sharks.

You and I have no choice but to share the demure fortune. With Tony, ej, Stephan, Kristen, Chad, and any other illegitimate child that shows up at the door

and every single one of those sharks wants that fortune for themselves, but none of them can touch the von Leischner fortune. That my darling is all ours. Ours. That is right, my dear Ours. This was part of the plan when I married your father. You’ll be sharing that money with your mother.

Come on, Mattie. How many times have you told me that your mum is a conniving bitch? Honestly, why should you believe a single word that she says? Maybe because it’s true. Stop that. I mean it. Nobody has ever loved me. Excuse me. What about me? You’re my friend. I’m talking about lovers. None of them have ever stuck around.

Well, there was Darius. Yeah. Who was gone the minute he got his green card? And Craig, I was only in that one for the money. Well, yes, maybe at first. But then you developed feelings for him, didn’t you? And look how that turned out.

There was that one night in Vegas with Chris Hemsworth, though. He spent the night with Chris Hemsworth. All right. It was an impersonator, but still he had no trouble raising his hammer, but even he was gone right after the breakfast buffet.

Honestly, I do feel like there was something between Sonny and me, but then Will came back like he always does, and they made up like they always do. What was I thinking? Sonny is a married man. There was never any hope, but that’s what I’m talking about. Every guy I ever go for is either married straight or using me for my American citizenship.

I hate to say it, but maybe Diana was right.

It was an honor taking care of a man like your husband for, as I said, I was just doing my job. Well, I think being a nurse is more than just a job. It’s a calling. Oh, it was a joy taking care of the mayor, and I’m just so sorry that all those terrible things happened to him and that awful attacker, who possibly is the one who kidnapped him?

Yes, yes. Colin, Colin Bedford. He’s a sick, dangerous man, but turns out. He wasn’t responsible for Abe’s disappearance. How do the police know they do? That’s all that matters. Oh, are there any, um, other suspects? No,

I have no idea where my husband is. How he is, I don’t know. I never even see him again.

Dear, dear.

Hello. Is anyone there?

Okay, well I was just leaving to go help John and Steve look for Yeah, sure. Good luck with that. You will call me if you get any information. Will do. Yeah. Bye.

How about at lunch now? Uh, no thanks. I’m, I’m good. You know, now that I’ve come back to Salem, I just gotta really, um, figure out my life. What’s that mean? Yeah, well I’m, I’m staying at my parents’ old place. Don’t know how long I can stay there, so, you know, if I wanna get my own place or rent a place, I’m just gonna have to figure out a job.

Well, I might be able to help you with that one. Yeah. How so? I would happily pay you to get rid of Megan Hathaway.

Are you listening to what I’m saying? Yes, mother. I am. I am. I’m just. I’ll admit, I am not relishing the prospect of having to share my inheritance with a platoon of Damaris. There you go. You see, finding this corso was the best thing that’s happened to us in a long time. Oh, see now there you go again with that US word.

And yet, I’m the one who is being forced to marry a woman that I just met. Now you listen to me. I have sacrificed plenty for you over the years. Just think opportunity to,

how long have you and I been friends? Oh, let’s see. We met in 2006, so if you take 23 and then you subtract the six. Oh, of course I’m not, I’m not asking you to do the math. You big knob. I was just pointing out that I know you really well. Yeah, and so I know everything your mother said about you is simply not true.

Easy for you to say she’s not your mother. Oh, come on mate. If we’re playing bad mother poker here, we both have a winning hand in this.

My mother convinced me that my father didn’t care if I lived or died. That’s why I turned out like this. I drugged. My sister went after her husband. Thanks to dear old mom, I was convinced that if I were to get anyone to love me, I would have to trick them.

So you know what? Everything that our mothers have said about us, it is absolute rubbish. I love you so much, Gwynnie, and not a single trick made me feel that way. Just your genuine adorableness. I catch you Mady.

Doesn’t really help us in the romance department though, does it? No. What you and I need is for two handsome, well-heeled strangers with great asses to show up one day and sweep us off our feet. That doesn’t happen very often though, does it now? Exactly. Should I repay you? Go upstairs, get dressed, have lunch with Ms.

Rizek and turn on the charm. Must I? Yes. Now. Okay. Okay. Look, the sooner you propose to her, the sooner we get all that lovely money. This is why I adore you, mother. You never sacrifice your own dignity upstairs. Okay, now. So what are your plans for all that lovely money?

Don’t you worry about your husband, all right. He’s gonna be just fine. You can’t possibly know that you’re right. I can’t, but I’m a woman of faith and my faith has gotten me through so, And I know that you are a woman of faith too. I usually am, but then, oh, Frank, is there news about A, I’m sorry, what? Well, then why are you here?

I’m here because I was told that Ms. King was here. I need to speak with her.

Well, I must be, must be the guy who, who attacked me. I hope. Hope he’s gone. I hope he’s gone. But if not, I, I have to defend myself. Well,

oh,

I guess I have to wait. Let’s wait till Paulina comes home.

Charlamagne,

what do you think you’re doing here? Cassandra? You and I are gonna have it out once and for all.

Yeah. Dashing handsome strangers. Well, they only turn up in romance novels, don’t they? I think we might be setting our sights too High pointer. No, no, no, no, no. I don’t want you thinking that way. I believe, and it might just be the three cups of coffee I just had. That’s making me feel frenetic and wound up in a good way.

That true love is just around the corner for both of us. Oh, so it’s just the caffeine then talking, is it? No. No. Well, I mean, maybe the caffeine is helping me to feel optimistic, but it doesn’t negate the fact that I am envisioning great romantic futures for both of us. Us. Oh, besides, we have a backup plan.

If neither of us find a man, we just marry each other. Resorting to Eves dropping. Now are we. Did you have a glass pressed in a wall? Oh no. Your voice carries. See, I heard it all the way out from the garden. Oh, into horticulture. Now, are you, I do have something of a green thumb, but guess what we’re talking about?

You, Megan, and I already know about your plant to take over the world and, uh, how are you going to use the vonner money? Don’t you think it’s time I learned what you’re going to do with it?

Uh, okay. Um, let’s define, get rid of, do I convince Megan to leave town or do we take it a step further? Okay. Well, first of all, I don’t need you to play games with me. You’re not going to make me feel guilty. Megan tried to kill me and then she sicked her brainwashed henchman on me. No offense. No none taken.

And if though hadn’t had a last minute change of heart, I would be dead right now. Okay. So I think you can imagine how I feel about Megan coming back into Salem with her demented wealth and putting down roots. I mean, obviously you think she’s up to something or you wouldn’t be keeping your eye on her, would you?

Do you think that, uh, she’s gonna try to kill you again? I don’t wanna wait and see. I just wanna have her neutralized first. Okay. Why don’t you just tell me exactly what it is that you want? Oh, I think you know what I want, and it’s not just about my life. She had plans for Marlena and Kayla. Should you consult with them about your plan?

That would be a waste of time. Neither of them has the killer instinct. I’m the only one ruthless enough to take care of this situation. Ah, yeah. Have you going mad? I want justice and I do it myself, so be it.

Ah, what are you raving about now? I know you read the ballot box. Charlamagne Delacroix. You are not gonna get away with stealing the election from me. Well, I don’t know what you mean. Oh really? You can’t stand. Rhett loves me and not you, and you’re gonna do anything in your power to make sure that you are voted Woman of the year.

Woman of the year, that’s what they’re fighting about. Accuse me of whatever you want. You have no proof and I’m going to be Woman of the year, whether you like it or not.

You wanna talk to me? Uh, you’re a policeman, right? Commissioner? Commissioner Hernandez. And, uh, just came from your apartment. There was no one there. So I came here. I also left you a message yesterday and never called me back. Oh, I, I, I’m sorry. I had my phone turned off. I’m a little behind in my payments.

I see. Okay. Well, um, it, what can I do for you, uh, commissioner? Well, it seems as though you may have been the last person to see Mayor Carver before he disappeared.

Okay, lemme get this straight. You have the killer instinct, but you want me to do the killing? Well, it’s not like you haven’t done it before. If you’re talking about the jobs I did for Megan, I wasn’t right up here. I was brainwashed. Okay. Okay, but you still have it in you, right? You’re a Navy seal, you have advanced combat training.

Yeah. Megan is evil, but she’s not exactly an arm combatant. She isn’t exactly a frail flower now, is she? She tried to ruin your life. She almost cost you your freedom, right? Yeah, pretty much. Okay. So we both know what she’s capable of and we both know sooner or later she’s going to be back at it and that could be a problem.

Mm-hmm. But your problem is money, and I have loads of it.

Why pay me or anybody else. Your husband was a cop. I’m sure he would love the chance to get even with Megan. Okay. I love my husband dearly, but my take on morality is situational. His is absolute. He stopped to John and Steve from killing Orpheus, who’s a monster. There is no chance I could convince him to kill a woman like Megan, even though she may be evil incarnate, which means I’m left with you.

I have done some far out stuff, but never plan to take over the world. So Megan, spell it. How are you gonna do it? Well, do I pass inspection? Oh, you clean up so well. Only a bespoke suit would do all the work for me. Now, how am I going to convince this reporter who is interviewing me that I barely know that I’m mad about her and that she should marry me?

You’re really gonna do that, is he? I am sure you have. Many ways to charm women. Yes, but my aim has never been marriage. What have I just told her? Why I needed to marry her? Have you forgotten about the clause that specifies you must be sincere in your intentions. What little clause is that? Do shut up.

And it may not even be difficult. Apparently Ms. Rizek is desperate for a new man in her life, and I heard something to the effect that Xander Cook used and abused her. You see, she’s primed and ready

and now so are you. What’s this? Well, it’s everything you need to know about the fair mis wrist check. When did you have the time to put this together? I needed some background on my future daughter-in-law, didn’t I? Especially if I was going to expediate the process. Oh, mother, when did you become such an incurable, romantic?

I hope you know, I will be expecting a gigantic six Kara Diamond engagement ring from you. Oh, you think I’m kidding? Of course I do. I’m not. I seriously think you and I should consider tying the knot, then we can have a huge wedding invite everyone we know, invite everyone. We don’t know. Why on earth would we do that?

The bridal registry gwenie with our taste. We’d make a killing. Yes, except for nobody likes us enough to pay a single penny on gifts. Ugh, killjoy.

Oh, I’m so sorry. Are my efforts to cheer myself up boring you? No, it’s not that. It’s just I have to finish getting ready. If I’m going to make it to this interview on time, fine. Go have your glamorous interview. I’m gonna stay here and watch Bunny and Soul. Well, tell me what happens next when I get back.

Oh, Gwenie. When you meet Mr. Vonner, you may not wanna mention my name. Okay. Why is that? We have something of a troubled past. Remember the whole Almanian peacock debacle? He kind of threatened to kill me over that. That was him? Mm-hmm. Oh, for goodness sake, my lips are sealed.

Nobody told me Ms. King was the last person to see Abe, not even Ms. King. Are you accusing me of something? No. No. But, uh, you were working this floor yesterday when Abe regained consciousness, and then shortly after he had regained consciousness, he disappeared. And according to the duty roster, He was assigned as one of your patients?

Well, I have a lot of patients that I see too. Right. Yeah. Okay. We’ll try and think through the day. Was there anyone around that would’ve been suspicious, someone lurking around that shouldn’t have been? No. No. Nothing like that? No. You remember taking care of her? Did you? You’re awake. How are you feeling?

Paulina? Excuse me. I know. I know who you are. You’re my wife. Well, yes. Yes, I remember it well. There was something

you might be able to see a woman of a year away from me. But I will not let you steal my man. Rhett loves me and only me, don’t embarrass yourself. Well, that’s exactly what you’re doing. Desperately holding onto a man who doesn’t love you. You think that Rhett loves you? Oh yeah, I do. The only reason you were able to get your claws into red was because he had amnesia.

So this plan of yours, is it already in motion? Oh, yummy. Yeah, you’re stalling, which makes me believe that you’re having your doubts about it. You underestimate me. Mm. You underestimate the number of enemies you’ve made in this town. So if you want them to bend to your will, you’re gonna have to have an army on your side.

Yes, that’s right. And every army needs a commander. Mm. Well, it sounds like you have someone in mind. That’s right. One who recently arrived right here in Salem.

So Commander Michaels, do we have a deal?

Whatever Megan did to me. I can never be hit, man. Now clearly you are back on the side of the angels. Hmm? Traval. I’m not, yeah, I’m sorry. You’re gonna have to find somebody else. I, okay. Well, you should probably keep your guard up. Though sooner or later Megan is gonna take action against you. Maybe. Hope that could be true, and I don’t like to be backed into a corner.

Okay. It’s just give it some thought. I think you’ll realize that I’m telling the truth and he’ll come around.

Gwen, did you order room service?

You.

Well, I went into Mr. Carver’s room to check his vital signs, and I noticed that he was conscious and very, very confused. That’s what Chanel said. Um, I told him not to worry that he was gonna be just fine, and then I left to notify his doctor of his change in his condition. Okay. And then I didn’t see him again after that.

You don’t remember anyone hanging around outside his room? No. No sir. And that Colin Bedford was handcuffed to his bed. Oh gosh. I wish I could be more, have more help. Yeah. Well, thank you for your time and if you need anything, you just ring that call back. I’ll come running. I don’t want you to know that the mayor is in my prayer

so. This red character at Amnesia and left this woman for that woman.

You enjoy your moment in the sun, honey. Because you may win this award tonight, but you will never truly be Woman of the Year. You’re talking nonsense again. Oh, you just wait. I might have a little. Ace up my sleeve. What Ace?

What Ace? We interrupt this program to bring you breaking news regarding the 2008 mayoral election. We are going live to Carver Campaign headquarters. There’s been a lot said about me and my family during the course of this campaign. Some of it’s true, some of it’s not true, and over the next several weeks I will delineate fact from fiction.

But tonight I want to assure all of Salem. That I am committed to making life in this city better for our children and our children’s children. I am honored. And humbly accept this position as your mayor. Woo.
