THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 It’s a beautiful service, man.

So was Marlene’s. And Kates three funerals. Man, what this just overwhelming. Yeah.

You know, I think half the town showed up. They sure did touch a lot of people’s lives.

I lost count how many times. Someone put a hand on my shoulder, told me how much Kayla meant to them

and how it doesn’t make sense. She’s gone. I’m right there with them. Just can my head around the fact that I’ll never see Doc on this planet earth again,

just like you’ll never see.

I saw her last night.

You know you’re gonna wear a hole in the cloud if you keep pacing like that. Oh, ha, ha ha. What else else am I supposed to do while we wait for Nick Fallon? If he ever shows up? Oh, he’s coming back. How do we know that? Because the devil went to a lot of trouble to trick us into signing away our souls.

Well, he owes us an opportunity to plead our case. Hello? Hello? Hello, ladies. All right. What’s happening? A meeting with the devil. Uh, you know, they say patience is a virtue, not that virtue’s gonna matter that much where the three of you are headed. Oh, okay. What’s that supposed to mean? It means that it’s not easy booking a face-to-face with Satan.

Okay. I mean, why should he care about three arrogant women,

three funerals. Three, both my grandmothers and Michael.

Sorry. Thanks. But hey, you know, got to paint around family today. Yeah. I’m, I’m about to leave him right in the middle of all this suffering. And you don’t have to leave you in. I do. I gotta go to New Zealand for the shoot. I can’t put it off any longer. I hate that. I gotta say goodbye to you already.

Well, you don’t have to say goodbye

because I’m coming with you. I really sorry. You couldn’t say goodbye to your. It was, uh, it was a beautiful service. Being stuck here has made the whole thing a lot harder. Okay, look, I know the time stinks here, but, uh, we need to talk about, or well, you wanna put things into motion today? Look, if this’s gonna work, dude.

No better time for you to fall off the wagon in the day of your mother’s funeral.

Are you telling us that he denied our request? Oh, maybe because it’s your funeral day and he is feeling charitable, but he actually said yes. Yes. Congratulations. You’ve been granted an audience with the devil himself. Oh, excellent.

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

You. You’re kidding. You, you’re kidding, right? No, sunny. You can’t come to New Zealand. What I can’t do is spend another minute away from you. Will I? Don’t you think we’ve been separated long enough? Of course. Do you remember what happened the last time we were apart for too long? How Leo nearly sunk our marriage.

I, I remember, but sunny. But, but no, but nothing.

I’m sorry, will I just, I can’t spend another six months away from you. It’s not what I signed up for and I don’t think it’s what you signed up for either.

So I’m, I’m sorry, but I’m along for the ride. There’s nothing you can do to stop.

You saw Kayla.

I know how it sounds. Okay, but last night I was on the couch drifting off

and suddenly she came through the door.

My sweet. As beautiful as ever. Wow. That’s a, that’s a really nice vision. It wasn’t a vision. She was flushing blood. I touched her. We kissed. Oh, how’d you do that? I don’t know,

but she said she needed my help. What kind of help? She told me that she and Marlena and Kate had been tricked into giving their souls away to the devil. Come on partner. I know, I know. It’s crazy. It’s crazy. And then Trip came home. Kayla disappeared.

I’d had a few beers, so he tried to convince me that it wasn’t real, that it was just a. But no, John, it was real. It was so real. Look, I know you’re the one carrying a burden here. I wish there was another way. No, I, I’ll do it. I’ll do it. I, I want to do it for my mom. All three of them deserve justice and we are gonna get it for ’em.

Lucas

El, I. Didn’t hear you come in. Is that my dad on the phone? I thought you weren’t speaking to him after what he did to mom.

How do we do this? Is this, is this like a regular trial? Do we get a lawyer or do we represent ourselves? Well, you didn’t let me finish before. Um, Kate Kayla, you’re not going anywhere. What do you mean? I mean that the boss man has agreed to see one person and only one person, and that one person is you.

Arlena.

Sonny, I I love that you want to come with me, but I, I can’t let you pack up and leave stm

you saying No, I’m saying it’s not up to me. Victor’s not gonna let you run Titan from New Zealand. And you, and you think Gabby’s gonna let us take Ari to the other side of the world. I actually already talked to Gabby and you know, after some persuading she agreed to let Ari come with us. Apparently.

That’s actually what Ari wants. And, and you know, of course she’ll come for frequent visits

when he is, are you saying, I’m saying that you’re what matters to me. Okay. Whatever happens with, with. Whatever. I don’t care. We’ll figure it out. Okay. I love you. Will. I never want to be separated from you ever again.

I know it’s easy to explain this away, but it was not a dream, John. I swear.

I see how you’re looking at me. Just come on, man. Don’t worry, you’re a little too late for that.

I wish I could tell you I’m fine, but I’m not.

I’m gonna carry this grief with me for the rest of my life now that I underst. And that’s why we’re going after ort, isn’t it? Yeah. And killing him. He’s not gonna put a dent in what we’ve lost, but our wives need to be avenged. I mean, after last night, I believe that more than ever,

It is time to hook up with Roman.

Now that we have the women, we love to, it’s

your dad called to ask about the funeral. I’m sure. Love to talk to you if you’re up to. Yeah.

Hey dad. Hey sweetheart. It’s really good to hear your voice. Are you okay? Yeah. Grandma Kate’s service was beautiful. I wish they’d let you be there. Yeah, me too. I keep thinking how hard it must be for you to be stuck in there with your grief and have no outlet for it.

Hey, uh, listen, d don’t you worry about me, okay? You just don’t, you just lean on the people who love you and take care of yourself and Henry. I will. Thanks. Oh, listen, the guard is telling me that I, I gotta cut it short, so I gotta go. Okay. Um, I’ll talk to you soon. I hope so. Hey, listen, tell Grandpa Roman then.

I’m glad we talked. I will. I. I love you more than you’ll ever know

you are. All right. Yeah. But I was just wondering something, what is it? When I came in, I heard you telling my dad something about. Grandma Kate, grandma Marlena, and Aunt Kayla deserved justice and that you were going to get it for them. What did you mean by that?

We should have known there’d be a catch look, I don’t like this anymore than you do, but I think if we have one option, we’ve gotta take it. I agree. And, and I, I, I’ve beaten the devil twice. That’s one way of looking. So if I can do this, I’ll, I’ll, I’ll meet with them and then I’ll just get all of our souls back.

Can we stop wasting time already? Because this discussion is moot. No one here gets a vote. It’s, it’s Doc Evans or no one? No.

Okay. Okay. I’ll go with you. Just your.

I, I, I know how much running Titan means to you, and my brother is more than willing to step up. He already did when I was in the hospital. Remember, it’s all under. And I’ll be working remotely. And as for me and Ari, we could do whatever we want. Yo, we could hike from one end of the country to the other.

See everything there is to see. There’s just one thing stopping us. What

you,

I’ve got everything Figure. All of our ducks are in a row for some reason, you still seem to be against us, and don’t you wanna be able to do this

well, everybody’s having a rough time of it these days. Doubly worst for your dad. So when you were talking about justice, yeah, we all want justice for your grandmother’s friend, Kayla, but your dad being in prison, he feels helpless. I was just trying to reassure Well that’s very kind of you considering your feelings about him.

Oh, I still have issues with Lucas, but we’re family and uh, case death reminded me of. Really important. Thank you.

And I really hope that what you said to my dad comes true that justice is served, we’re working.

Okay, it’s time. Yes it is.

Where is he? Where is he? Where’s Orpheus? I’m not his keeper. No, but I know he’s got you in his back pocket. So why don’t you find him for me? You find him and you tell him I want to talk to him asap.

We heard you with Ali. Sorry you had to lie to her. Yeah. Well we’re just lucky she didn’t come in a minute earlier. I’m glad I could keep her Octa Sun. So are we good? Not having any second thoughts? No, no. I’m still all in. Good. Because when the day comes and I see Doc again, I want to tell her that her.

Did not go veed. Okay. Well you can go ahead Marlena. He’s uh, right down there. He’s anxious to meet with you again. I don’t see anything. Trust me. You don’t want me to ruin this for you? Well, how are you?

Well, I guess I’m on my. From now on.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello, Marlene and Darling

Tell me, did you miss me? I certainly have missed you,

This is really happening, isn’t it? You, you’re, you’re really coming to New Zealand. Yeah. I mean, don’t you think we deserve it after everything we’ve been through together? , I, I, I, I couldn’t be Lumina pitch it. I mean, I’m always the one leaving and, and putting pressure on us. Look, we’ve both put our fair share of stress on this relationship, but we.

Also make things right when we have to because what we have is worth it.

It’s worth everything. You’re making a bigger sacrifice though. Okay. Sure. Maybe this time, but if history is any guide, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to step up to the plane in the future. I will. I will. I. I have no doubt. I love you. Funny. I love you too. I, I can’t wait to tell you that every day in person, and not over stupid video.

Chad

Well, I, I, I, I guess we have a, a bunch of people to share the news with buttons.

God, I just keep on thinking that what if this isn’t real? Which part? Well, all of it. You mean what if instead of meeting with the devil, I wish Marlena away. Do you know? No, no, no, no, no, no. I, you know what? I, I, I can’t go there. I have to believe that this is not a trick. I, I have to, I have to believe that we are going to have a chance to change our fate, and I need you to believe that too.

Okay. Well, you know, I’m more of a, the soul’s half empty kind of gal, so Yeah. Yeah. I understand. But now is the time to have faith. We are in this together. God, I have to be in the afterlife. I am grateful that I’m here with you and Marlena. Oh, come on. This is what I hate about this place. What’s your problem?

Ah, it’s just so much peace and understanding, man. And by the way, I thought your funerals were sappy. Oh, you were there. You saw a family. How? Oh, not great. Yeah, they were really, really sad. Especially your husband, Steve. What about him? Oh, just he was a rack, you know, tears streaming down his will from his eye.

But this isn’t news to you, right? Because. You paid him a little visit last night, didn’t you?

So is Lucas all set on his end? Yeah, I went through everything with him. He’s till on board. Oh. Bringing booze back into his life. That’s a dangerous game. Yeah, he knows that he gets it, but uh, we can count on him. How about you? Ready. You’re born ready. Orpheus won’t know what hit him.

I hear you. Want to talk to me. What took you so long? What’s matter with you? Nothing. I are you drunk? Not drunk enough. That’s the problem.

Empty, huh? Yeah. I need more. You drank this awful way fast. Considering you didn’t want it

easy. What you gonna do? You gonna make me say it? I gotta beg you. You of all people. Say what? Today’s my mother’s funeral and I missed it. Sorry to hear that. No you’re not. No you’re not. Cuz you killed her, you bastard. But if I’m gonna make it through today, I’m gonna need more of that right now. I see. You gonna help me or not

Doug? Long time. No sea dear. I, I don’t understand. Has Doug passed away? Doug is very much alive. He’ll probably live forever. But how? Why? I thought assuming a familiar face might make you feel more comfortable. Besides if you saw my real face, yours would just absolutely melt away. , I’m glad you so amused by all.

Can we stop wasting time? Let’s get down to business. How may I help you?

So you guys are just leaving today, just like. Um, I mean that was basically my reaction when Sonny said it, but now I, I see how much sense it makes. Wow. I mean, I’m go ahead and miss you both so much, but I’m happy for you. This is exciting, . Yeah, thanks. I’m pretty excited too, . Thank you. Have so much going on here.

This couldn’t have been easy for you. Yeah, but you know, I’m not thinking life ever. I mean, when I, I first came up with this whole thing, I kept worrying about all the details and then I don’t know what just kind of hit me. Yeah. Being happy is all that really matters, and once I accepted that fact, everything else just falls into place.

Yeah. You okay Ellie? I was just thinking.

What if Henry and I come along,

it must hurt missing your mother’s funeral knowing it’s because you kidnapped your ex-wife. Consequences.

You stay put. I’ll be back in a few.

Oh, and I thought I made it clear I didn’t kill your mother. So stop saying it. Oh, we’re done

now. You did kill her. You sick bastard. Hey, today you’re gonna pay for it.

What is he talking? What is he ever talking about? No, no, no, no, no. Nice try. KK seems your pal went solo last night and didn’t tell you so much for the all For one and one for all bit. Um, Kate, Kayla, you naughty, naughty girl. What did you do? Tell you what she did. She went off and she made unauthorized contact with her husband.

Thought he could get her outta here. You saw Steve. How? How indeed? Yeah, sure. We’ll all admit, Steve’s a miracle worker, but even he’s not gonna get you out of this one.

I hope our wives are looking down on us right now and they understand that we’re doing this for them. Yeah, I wish I was going with you. Nah, it’s better to have someone on the outside in case this whole thing goes sideways. Well, they won’t because it can’t. This has to work. We got justice on our side and we got those three angels up in heaven looking out for us.

Good luck.

All right, come on Lucas. Please don’t fail us.

You have it? Where is it? Take it easy. Take it easy. Uh, not so fast. This being a sad, sad day. I think it’s only fitting and, and proper that we honor your mother by drinking a toast to her together.

Uh, I drink alone. I don’t share. Oh, don’t worry about. There’s plenty more where this came from. You first

Orpheus Ola for group therapy. Am I, I must have lost track of time.

All right. Let’s do this.

You know exactly why I’m here. I came to challenge those bogus contracts that your minion tripped us into signing. These contracts.

Look, we’ve known each other long enough for you to know that I am not impressed by those parlor games. Sit around. Are these not your signatures? Well, yes, yes, yes. But they were gotten under false pretenses, so they’re, they’re not enforce. On Earth maybe, but this is hell different down here. Here we encourage, uh, a certain lawlessness know why.

Here earth is desperately trying to catch up. , what do you know? Self, self-esteem. Look, I know you want our souls. I understand all that, but can, can’t you just get them in the normal way? Do you have to try to trick us? I am marette after all the devils. Yes, indeed you are. You’re not some cheap con man. You are the most powerful force of evil in the universe.

I’m flattered. You shouldn’t feel flattered. This, this tricking us, make you feel proud. You see, I think it makes you look weak, and I think you agree.

Do you? Do you want to leave Salem with us? Where is this all coming from? I know it may seem impulsive, which is exactly what I accuse my brother of being, but it makes sense to me. When I was sitting at those funerals today, I was thinking about the lives that our grandma sled and Kayla too, you know, they lived without fear.

No regrets. They took chances. Yeah, they did. What? But what about, you know, everything you’d be leaving behind? Well, um, Chanelle and I broke up, actually, she broke up with me. I’m sorry. I I didn’t know that. Hey, your loss, huh? No, this one’s on me. I, um, I slept with Alex. I thought that Chanel and Johnny were hooking up behind my back and I was wrong.

Okay. Well, did, did my brother take advantage of you? No, no, no. If anything, I was the aggressor. Well, I mean, are, are you sure it’s over between you and Chanel? I mean, you don’t want to stay and fight for her or, mm-hmm. I know Chanel, once she’s made up her mind about something, pushing her is just the worst thing I could possibly.

You know, I’ll always love her, but I think that we could both use the time and space to grow on our own. Cool. What about your job? You know, I’m gonna have to quit. Could you go to work every day if your boss was the person you cheated on? Okay. That’s that’s a fair point. Yeah. And I talked to dad today and he told me to lean on the people I love and to do whatever’s best for me and Henry.

Less good advice. Yeah, I’m a single mom. No job, no prospects. We buried our grandmothers today. I just, I really could use something positive in my life for Henry’s sake too, honestly. We may never get this opportunity again, you know, to, to recharge and reboot. We’re better than the most beautiful place in the world with two of my favorite people.

Are you sure? I can’t think of anywhere. I’d rather be. It sounds like heaven on earth. I can see in those glowing eyes of your. Nick and his games are beneath you that there’s no satisfaction in, in tricking silly mortals. It was a bitter experience losing du you twice. Yeah. Well that’s understandable.

What’s more, I hate losing and it’s not as though I. Morally opposed to cheating? Well, of course not. But don’t you wanna win without cheating? Don’t you wanna prove finally, once and for all that you are stronger than I am? It is difficult to know which path to take, but one path must be taken. It is this path or it is this path.

All right, I have made my decision.

So you actually contacted Steve, I’m not gonna lie to you. I, I believe I did. Well, you talked, you talked to him. Did he talk, did he talk back? I mean, did he see you? How, how No. I, I don’t know, but I was just, I was just so desperate. I was desperate to close to him and let him know that I’m okay. How could you do this?

I could have talked to Roman, I could have talked to Lucas. How could you not let me know?

Where is Ory is? Stay. Wait more? I need more. Why are you still standing here? I told you. Go get him today. Are you okay? Pardon’s Walters, you got an inmate down? Request assistance and send them to the infirmary set.

So

well, a little while ago I was headed back to New Zealand alone and cuz now we might as well charter our own flight cuz nothing would make me happier. Please come, Allie. It’ll be, it’ll be great for all of us. Okay. New Zealand. Very good.

You just tell me, tell me how I can reach my family. Sorry, but that had nothing to do with me. Okay. Kayla. Clever little devil that she is found a way around our firewall. The point is, it’s been plugged up. Right. It’s all gonna happen again. Damn you. Wow. You’re a little late on that front. You know? I’m gonna keep trying.

Go ahead. Keep. It’s not gonna happen again. Which is a shame because in reviewing our tapes, it looks like there’s gonna be some interesting developments today. What are you talking about

gema them? There’s murder in the air. Who’s murder? Okay. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Steve, John. They’re going to avenge your deaths. Bye killing Orpheus today. Oh my God.

Okay. Everything should be starting to come together right about now.

Hey, who’s in that booze? You gave that train? Wreck reporting. What do you mean he passed out? Trunk is a skunk. I just sent him to the infirmary. Huh. Well, maybe you can’t handle his liquor like a lot of drugs. A loser.

Mom. Mom, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry, mom. Mr. Horton. Mr. Horton, can you hear me? I’m gonna find you a doctor.

Dr. Kayla Johnson,

Kate Roberts. Brady, I can’t believe that I’m saying this. I am willing to tear up these contract. Oh, thank God in exchange, Marlena, in exchange, you must stay by my side throughout all eternity. You still think I’m cheating?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 If you’d prefer to go somewhere else. Oh, I’m, I’m fine. Really? Yes. Valentine’s Day. Every place is gonna be busy and I’m starving. You don’t mind spending the evening in the same room with them please? If he can take it. I can. As you wish. Uh, table for two under the name of tj, the math.

This should be fun. Could we possibly have another table? Not tonight, I’m afraid.

Usually I think of Valentine’s Day as like a commercial rip off. But this just got far more interesting.

Whoa. Sorry. Oh, oh, that, that’s, uh, it’s okay. Yeah. I hope it didn’t mess up. Chanel’s flowers. Oh, um, these are actually not for Chanel. They’re for.

Guess you changed your mind.

It’s you let me. You were hoping it was Gabby

Lee. You have to face reality. Okay? You totally blew it with her silver.

I love you, Stephen. I love you too. Chloe did. Did you just hear what you said? Yeah. You don’t want me to tell you I love you. Oh, I know. I, I can’t believe you just said that. You, you said that you love me, but then you called me Chloe.

You came back to me, girls, would I be on our anniversary?

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

Huh?

Why are they recruiting at each other? Like a couple of idiots? I thought she was just rebound sex. No, he’s. Staring at her like she hung the damn moon, Nicole, and they’re having Valentine’s Day dinner together. Hey Nicole, so are we.

Yeah, but it’s just to celebrate the Italian deal. It’s also the proper dinner date I promised you. And it can be as romantic as you want it to be.

What’s wrong,

Nicole? She let on. Her and EJ were, something was going on between them. I thought she was just trying to get to me and now she’s holding hands with him. She’s probably sleeping with him too, and sadly that’s tail bothers you.

And I know you think there’s something going on between Chanel and me and that I’m, Hey, look, you owe me no explanation, man. All right. If you and Mindy work things out, I think that’s great. Thanks. Uh, so you got big plans tonight? Uh, yeah. Yeah. I’m supposed to meet her in a couple minutes. We’re gonna go see a movie.

Cool. And look, I wanted to say that I’m, uh, I’m sorry if I screwed up your date with her last night. I don’t know if anybody told you, but Yeah, my brother Joey called her and told her that I needed her. Does he do that a lot? Yeah. I don’t know what’s gotten into him. Uh, he wants to play Max Maker, I guess, and for some reason he’s decided that I was interested in Wendy.

Hmm. Is he right?

Okay. What happened now? I asked Gabby if she’d have dinner with me and she’d turned me down flat. I’m sorry, Lee. What are you doing here on Valentine’s today? I was just checking up on me. Right. I can see. I am lonely, unemployed, possibly about to go to prison. Yeah. Can I offer a suggestion? Sure.

Okay. What you did behind Gabby’s back was big. I know what I did. I don’t need a Lexus. So if you want her back, you have to start small. Ask her if she’ll go for coffee, try to be her friend. Don’t invite her to Valentine’s Day dinner. I don’t want to be Gabby’s. She’s still my wife legally, but the only man she wants is her last husband, Stephan, the guy you had brainwashed.

I know Jane One. No.

I did not call you Chloe. I I wouldn’t do that. I heard you clearly. You said, I love you too, Chloe. Okay. If, if I called you Chloe, it’s only because I’ve been worried about her. You’re worried about her. You’re about to take me upstairs to bed. Why? Why are you even worried about Chloe? Because, Right. She ran outta here last night after Wolf was taken into custody, and I even heard from her since I’ve left her three messages, she’s ignored all of them.

Even when I called her earlier, she, wait, hold on a second. You, you called her earlier tonight on Valentine’s Day? Yeah. Before or after you called me.

I don’t underst. How can you be here? I had to see you on our anniversary tonight. I had to tell you much. I love you and I love you with all my heart.

No, this, this isn’t real. It. I had too much to drink. This is not real. I think I resent that. Weird. This isn’t some, it’s real. I’m.

I am not bothered.

I’m just tired of people telling me that I’m not over.

I have to admit maybe I’m not,

and now you’re afraid that she’s over. I was the one who divorced her. She has every right to move on. I just wish she wasn’t with that jackass.

You know, Eric could have any woman he wants. I don’t know why he’s settling for that trampy. Trouble making ambulance chasing.

I am sorry. No, uh, do, do, go on. No, I I don’t wanna spend the rest of the evening talking about him.

Okay. I’m gonna make a toast

to our first proper dinner.

I just don’t understand, Gabby, why would a woman like her waste her time on a man who loves someone else? Oh, if she said anything like me. She’s trying to believe that he loves her more. I wasn’t talking about you and Johnny. Can I pour you some wine? I better not. I have plans tonight

with Johnny. Last time we talked to you said you two were over. Turns out there was a misunder. I talked to Gabby and she encouraged me to not give up so easily. She said that Johnny’s a good guy, that I should fight for him. Sounds like something she’d say. Go, have a wonderful time. You sure you’ll be okay?

I’m just glad one of us. Have a happy Valentine’s Day.

All right. Look, Gabby, I, I’ll say it.

I called Chloe before I called you. Wow. Just wow. Look, it’s only because C comes before G in my contact list. Oh, hey Hernandez comes before L. You idiot. Cut you. Unbelievable. You know, I’ve been through a lot, so have I. I lost the love of my life and I thought you were gone forever. And then you invite me here tonight on Valentine’s Day.

I thought you’d made a decision that you realize that I’m the one you want. Well, maybe you just assumed that’s what I wanted. Oh my God. Your brain. Your brain is really scrambled. Okay. So what you, you hit the wrong button. Is that what it is? No, that is not true. I knew exactly what I was doing when I called you.

So you, you didn’t hit the wrong button. You meant to call me. That’s right. But only after Chloe didn’t pick up. What if, what if she had pick. Would I even be here tonight?

I mean, Wendy and I met last summer and uh, and Joy was there and what he, he thought you to hit it off. I mean, yeah. She and I are friends and, uh, and can’t what, sorry. I’m late. I stopped to check on my brother you YouTube talking about. Uh, no, we actually just ran into each other, or I, I did. Yeah. Literally, literally.

And, uh, Johnny here was telling me that you two work things out and I was about to say that. I’m really happy for you. Have fun tonight. Happy Valentine’s Day. Yeah, same to you.

Uh, these are for.

My God, that’s so sweet of you.

How can this be happening? How can you even be here? I guess I was able to, because. I really need your help. Why The good place Heaven? It’s.

So how long do you think we have to stay out? You mean to give Stephan space? Yes. For whatever the hell he’s planning. I have no idea what he has in mind. Well, he’s streaming if he thinks he. Stringing Chloe and Gabby along. How do you believe I heard that uh, Chloe was not returning his calls. She left town haw.

She’s had it. Brady lied to her about why Kristen moved in and now they’re a mess. And she thought she had something with Stefan until she found out that he was programmed a fall for her. Are you ready to order? Um, yeah, you know, I’ll have, uh, what she’s having. Oh, she needs a little steak off of law, I think.

Sorry, she got the last order, wouldn’t she? Just, um, I’m, let me need a few minutes.

That steak is so good.

Why don’t they just take it back to her place? I’m sure they will eventually.

I am not lying. I really was gonna call you. Okay. Really? So you were gonna invite me and Chloe to dinner and then what you were hoping for? A threesome? No. I mean, unless you’re into that sort of thing, I’m not you, pig.

Look what you’ve gone and done. Well, you deserve it. I, I can’t believe I was actually gonna sleep with you tonight. Please don’t be upset. Oh, I’m way past upset. My brother had to give me a pep pack tonight. He told me to focus on the fact that you realize that you love me. But it’s hard to focus on that when you love Chloe.

Hi. Wait. Are you seriously leaving right now? Oh, can’t believe it. Well, that’s not just Stephan, Gabby. Wait, I, your brother was right. I really do love you. Okay, well, when you decide I’m the only woman you love, call me. Then.

If heaven’s not working out, then stay here with. . I can’t, you know that, but, but, but strange up there. At first I was, I was in some sort of locked room. A vox room in heaven. Yeah. And then all of a sudden Adrian was there with me. Adrian, you saw her? Yeah. It, it, it was wonderful. She said she was going to be my guide on the next part of my journey, baby.

I’m so glad she was there with you. Except implicit. Really, Adrian. In fact, it was Nick Fallon pretending to be Adrian, Nick Fallon. Yeah. And when I thought that he was Adrian, he got me to sign a paper there. Papers to sign a paper. Yeah, I know, I know. And I was surprised too, but Nick tricked me into signing away my.

Is there something wrong with the chicken? No. No, not at all. It’s. PDA at the next table has killed my appetite. What’s your. I just have a bit of a headache again here. Oh, yeah. You know, you don’t, you don’t feel like you have a fever. I, I just feel a bit off. Oh, maybe my hangover from hell was really a bug that I passed on.

You. You know what, um, I’m gonna see if they have any extra as friend line. Really? It’s not necessary. Well, if you. Headache. You should take something for it. We need another bottle of wine.

You want me to read it for you? Yeah. I left my glass in the car. What? I’ll be right back.

My keys.

We have servants for that. You know, I can take care of it.

Looks like your evening didn’t go very well. Actually, it sucked. Gabby walked out on me.

This is Mr. Shin. I’d like to order dinner for. Someone’s out the door. I’ll call you back. If you cut your day short because of me. Hi Gabby. I, I was just wondering if that dinner invitation was still open. Oh, of course it is. Please come in.

I thought people only sold their souls to the devil in books and movies. Well, I, I didn’t sell my soul. I, I signed it away not knowing, and, and so did Marlena and Kate. So now you have to read the fine print in heaven. Somebody needs to help us, baby. You know, I would do anything to help you. You know that, but I don’t get this.

Heaven is not supposed to be a place of corruption. Well, maybe we’re not at heaven. Maybe we, maybe we get sidetracked somehow. How? I don’t know exactly, but I, whenever I’m in trouble, you’re the one I turn to. I mean, how many times have you rescued me? I wish I could have saved you this time. Well, I mean, not a, it’s not a loss.

I mean, I don’t know. Please, please. I’m just asking this last time. Please just help me. Just tell me what to do.

Dad, are you okay?

Who? Who are you talking to?

Kayla. Kayla. She was here. Yeah. That’s not. No, she, she was here. She, she told me she needed my help. She said, Nick Fallon tricked her into selling her soul to the devil. I, it was a dream. I, I, I heard you talking in your team. No, no. I swear she was right here. I know, I know. You, you’ve, you’ve, that’s been thinking about her all day nonstop.

I mean, today’s your wedding anniversary. Tomorrow’s your funeral. And it looks like you’ve had a certain amount of beer, which, which I, I totally get.

Maybe you’re right.

It felt so real.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

You know, I was worried about you after you’ve fainted, but you seem fine today. Oh, I, I told you it was nothing. How are you doing? I’m fine. Well, it’s seems hard to believe being at your mother’s funeral is tomorrow. I’m Kate and ca. I’m driving her not talk about that right now. Well, I just wanted to say that I was thinking about you and your family, but forget it.

Oh, I forgot about your,

I forgot my glasses. Just forget about it. I’ve had about enough of this for tonight. Can we just go home?

Why don’t I take you home? We’ll go out on a proper, proper dinner. Dates another matter.

I am curious why you’re here. You made it clear on the phone, you had no interest in seeing me. You said we should talk about the divorce, and I realized you were right. There’s ways I can drag out your divorce in court for months, maybe even years. And granted, I could get expensive. I don’t want a divorce, but I know you do and I love you enough to want you to be happy.

So I’m gonna talk to my lawyer and ask her to get the ball. Are you serious? You’re not me. I’m always serious by you. Anyway, well, um, thank you. I need to thank me. It’s the least I could do,

dude. You really called her Chloe. I didn’t mean. Obviously I’m still not thinking straight. So my brother’s fault and my Aunt Kristen’s. And my dad’s, yeah. It was everybody’s pet project. Well, I hear Dr. Rolf’s gonna be released on bail. Maybe you can finish undoing what he did to you. Yeah. But you scroll back to being the guy you were before all this happened.

Right. I mean, the way I hear it, you were totally in love with Gabby back then, and was this links that you have for Chloe. Wolf’s idea, so he should be able to make them disappear. Weird thing is

I not sure I,

Hey, Hey. What are you doing? Cleaning up after. It’s Valentine’s Day. You should be out with some nice girl. Ah, no. The nice girls I know already have a day. What about, um, Wendy, why’d you what her? I don’t know. I heard you and Joe talking about her. Why don’t you give her a call? What have you got to lose? I self, self-respect.

She already has plans. How can anybody want to stay brainwashed? Yeah, that’s what I’d like to know. Like what Ralph did. It only made me show up at Chloe’s door. Okay. That’s it. The rest was me. I started talking to Chloe and I remembered how much I liked her and this was well before Gabby and I were anything serious.

And I, Chloe and I, we were getting somewhere and that was not Rolf’s idea. And then the truth came out and yeah, I remembered how much I love Gabby.

And they really messed with your head. They did, but I don’t feel brainwashed. It must be pretty confusing though. It is. You know what? Who says it’s not possible to have deep feelings for two different people? I can only imagine what that’s like. Yeah. You know the thing is, I mean, stringing two women along like that, it doesn’t seem very,

Oh, uh, mine, if we join the party, actually it’s more of a wake. Have you had dinner? Uh, no. I was just about to order room service. I can order for two. Gabby, I’m sorry. What? I just realized that. You’re not with Stephan tonight and it’s Valentine’s dish. Well, I was with him and we were gonna make love for the first time in forever.

Hmm. What happened? Nothing. You’ve been obsessing over him since you found out he was alive. What stopped you tonight?

We, um, he called me Chloe. He called me Chloe

Oh, um, that Valentine’s Day was a bus. I’m sorry. He didn’t even get the dessert. Oh, I still think we can manage to salvage the evening. Assuming you still wanna do that. I know tonight was awkward, and tomorrow’s gonna be one of the worst days of your life. So if you wanna just call it an evening, I’ll understand.

But on the other hand, if you wanna rip off all my clothes, unfor, forget about everything else in the world. Come up for that.

I don’t know what was going on downstairs with your brother, but I, I didn’t wanna hang around and find out, nor did I se there’s enough awkwardness for this evening, huh? Hmm. On that subject, I heard what Eric said to you tonight. About what about you Fainting in the park. Why didn’t you tell me? It’s just a couple of seconds.

This is no big. Well, it is to me why? Well, you’ve said that you changed your mind about us, you know, sleeping together. Hmm. And if it had happened and you weren’t feeling well, I would’ve felt like a.

How gentleman Lee, how I mentioned how lovely and desirable you look this evening. Huh? We’ve been taking one day at a time for exactly one day now. And you didn’t seem so reluctant yesterday.

I suppose that was the alcohol talking. I dunno why I’m, I mean, only had two drinks.

How about a kiss night?

Well, that sounds like an excellent next step. Mm-hmm.

Stop laughing. This is not funny. , come on. You have to admit it’s a little bit funny. I don’t have to admit anything to you. Why don’t you admit that this whole nightmare is all your fault? If you hadn’t gone and played God with Stephan’s life and mine, I did that because I was am crazy about. And I’ll tell you something else.

Rolf could do whatever he wanted to me. He could brainwash me, he could pump me full of whatever drugs he wanted to and that would not change. I would still be crazy in love with you and it makes me sick that Stephan’s playing both ends against the middle when he could have you all to himself, Gabby, cuz that’s all I ever wanted.

And if I ever went a little overboard, that’s why

a little law report, okay, maybe.

Stay for dinner.

Why not? Girls gotta eat, right?

No. If you’re hungry. My kitchen’s waiting to serve oysters and Chateau Breon for too. I hate to see you go to waste. Wow. We were just gonna have popcorn for dinner. Well, we’re gonna stream evil dead too, so you really know how to treat a woman on Valentine’s Day. Seem to be doing better than you did.

Touche, nephew, enjoy your night.

I don’t know, maybe he’s right. If, if you wanna watch something else, you know, I don’t care what we watch. I just wanna be with you.

I think I want to go to bed. Oh, okay. I, I understand with you. I want just what you said. I want to forget about everything else in the world be with you.

Well, I, uh, I guess this is good night,

right?

Oh, what the hell?

Are you sure? Yes. I mean, unless. Unless you’re not

here, this will restore your electrolyte balance. Electrolytes, huh? Yeah, you’ll feel better. Thanks Dr. Johnson.

You’re a good son. You know that. I love you, dad. I love you too, buddy.

Are you gonna, are you gonna get some sleep? Yeah, I will eventually. Uh, you, you, go ahead now. Tomorrow’s gonna be a long, hard day. Yeah. Hi, dear.

From the very first minute I laid eyes on you, you had my heart through everyth. All the years, even the times we were apart, my heart belonged to you. Only you

I, I love you with all of my be and I always will. And that is a valve that can never be broken. I know I could never love another man the way I love you.

I just, I love you. I love your courage and your, your kindness, your passion, your smart and funny and so sexy.

I love your devotion to your.

I will never get tired of looking at your handsome face for the rest of my life. But I’m gonna tell you right now, this is the last time I am doing this . Okay? It’s the last time, okay? I’m never, never letting you go again. Do you understand me?

God, how am I supposed to let you go? Sweetness

seeing you here. Boy, it’s just so real.

Where are you baby? You know that I would go anywhere to the ends of the earth and beyond to help.

My vow to you is the same as it’s always been the same as it was on our wedding day.

I will love you till the end of time.

Happy anniversary Sweden

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Happy Valentine’s Day with love Stephanie.

Chloe, it’s, it’s me again. Listen, I know. Left you about 20 messages since you checked out of the Salem end, but here’s the deal. I’m worried about you. I have no idea where you are and, and everyone I’ve talked to hasn’t seen you or heard from you. I have

Nicole. We have been trying for months to close that Italian deal with Basic Black, and by God she. ej? Yes. I was just saying Nicole was on fire in that meeting. Hmm. Unlike me, you were a bit, uh, off your game more than a bit. I, I don’t know what’s wrong with me today. You kept losing your train of thought in that meeting.

I thought those execs were gonna walk, but Nicole, thank God she was there to save us and bring us home.

You all right, brother? I’m just a bit foggy again. It’ll pause since I know what you need. A good stiff drink. ? Huh? Can I pour it for you? Sure. Thank you, Stephen. My pleasure.

What is taking so long? Hello to you too, Gabby. No, the, when I left here yesterday, Jada said that she’d called me when you were ready to release Ralf. And why haven’t I heard from anybody? Because he hasn’t been released yet. Well, you need to do that right now so we can finish fixing Stephan. As I told you before, I am more than happy to do that as soon as the good doctor comes through with the goods on your husband.

Just spoke to Rolf and he wrote a long statement detailing everything you’ve done to Stephan Damira. But as his attorney and as yours, I convinced him not to sign. It made him see that it was his best chance to avoid being charged. Good. Speaking of charges, I got your first bill. No. No, honey. I may be easy, but I ain’t cheap.

What’s the matter, Lee? I just made the Roth problem go away. Yet you still don’t seem happy. No, I am. But now I just want to know what you’re gonna do about my Gabby problem,

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

Not a fan of roses.

Oh, uh uh Stefan needs. , go back to Gabby. Yeah, I, I’m, I’m pretty sure that was the idea behind the deprogramming that she forced him to do yesterday. Did you hear about that? Yeah. Anna told me, did Gabby really take Stephan prisoner and put him in the demerit basement? Yeah. Ralph showed up to zap his brain and the machine he was using, well, it broke halfway through the procedure.

So Stephan does love Gabby now, but he also still loves Chloe. Poor guy. Poor guy. You, you feel sorry for him? Yeah, really? I do. I do. I feel a little sorry for him. I mean, he was brainwashed and in the middle of getting it undone. All’s equipment craps out. That, that, that, that’s just it. I don’t think a guy needs to be, be getting his brain undone or un zapped or whatever you want to call it, in order to understand that he should be with Gabby.

Well, yeah. Then you should be with Chloe and I even, I even told stiff that after the procedure. I told him that I believe that you and Chloe together, and I was, I was glad that he decided to let her go, except he. Yeah. Well, okay. Hold on. Hold on. You, you spoke to Chloe, is she okay? Kind of, yeah. What does that mean,

Brady? She’s freaked out and, and why shouldn’t she be? I, I mean, for the last few weeks she’s been on this insane rollercoaster ride. Caught between you and S Stephan. Yeah, but Anna told me that she went to the Demer mansion specifically to tell Stephan. She didn’t want them to see each other anymore.

Well, yeah, because she wasn’t sure if his feelings for her were real or manufactured by, by Ralf. And of course, she gets there and finds out that his feelings for Gabby are back and it’s just, it was just too much for her. She just had to get out of there. Dad, get out. Okay. Okay. Okay. Tell you know what, just, just tell me where she is.

Oh, Nick Brady. Tell me where she is. I, I, I can’t. Come on, just, just tell me where she is. I can’t, why?

Because she doesn’t wanna see you either.

Brady. Brady, listen to me. She is still upset that you dumped her out of the blue and moved Kristen in. Oh my God. Your place. Oh my God. But now she knows why I had to do it. Yeah, but she doesn’t understand why you didn’t confide in her first. I couldn’t. I couldn’t. Kristen was blackmailing. Still, Chloe wishes that you told her what was going on so she could help you.

She wishes that you trusted her. I, I do trust her. Nick, of course, I trust her. Kristen was threatening me. She told me that if anybody found out that she would destroy the work. Okay, and then, then the three women would die. Oh, but they, they did anyway, didn’t they?

You know, maybe you’re right. Maybe I should have said something. Only, I would’ve said something, told someone. Maybe my dad or Chloe, maybe. Maybe they would’ve been saved. Hmm. Brady, what happened to those women is not your fault.

Maybe not, maybe. I don’t know. What I do know is they’re gone and I. Matter what you say. I just, I, I j I just, I just, it’s too much. This, this, this tragic set of circumstances. Losing Chloe. I mean, what is next? Huh? You haven’t lost Chloe. Okay. She’s, you haven’t lost her. She’s just overwhelmed and she needed some space.

Brady, listen to me. I told you that I am on your side and you know that I want you and Chloe to be together. What if we’re stuck and this, this, this love limbo indefinitely? No. No. Nobody, nobody wants that. Even Stephan admitted it’s untenable. Look, sooner or later, hopefully sooner, Ralph will finish the procedure and everything will go back to the way it.

You with Chloe and Stephan, with Gabby.

Brave. This waiting is his torture. Okay? You need a release for and you need to chill. Chill. How the hell do you want me to chill? My God. You know what it feels like to have the love of your life? Finally, remember, he loves you only to announce that he also loves another woman. Look, if that quack doesn’t finish this job, it could stay this way forever.

I am sorry sis. I really am. I feel for you, which is why I am trying to get the information on your husband. Oh, please, can you stop calling him that? Cause I don’t wanna be reminded that I’m still married to that snake. Yes, I am sorry. I know how much Lee hurt you, which is why I am trying to get the evidence so that I can charge him.

Well, last time I was here, Roe was ready to write a statement. Yes. And he wrote it. And then Sloane Peterson walked in. Why? Well, apparently she is his attorney now and she, uh, somehow kept him from signing on the dotted line.

As you know, my wife is infatuated with s Stephan Damara and hates my guts. She’s hell bound on to forcing me. If I told you we can fight. How there’s ways I can drag out your divorce in court for months, maybe even years. And granted, I could get expensive. Money won’t be an issue. You just keep me out of prison.

And in my marriage I’ll find a way to get Gabby to forgive me and forget all about Stephan America.

Here you go. Hopefully this will help you shake off the cobwebs. To always looking after each other. And of course it’s a family. Whoa. Hey, I wanna get in on this. No. Why are you, uh, I, uh, heard about your impromptu session with Dr. Rolf and Na Geo. Got your feelings from Gabby back? I did. . Yeah. Well, glad that you’re, uh, back in the right state of mind.

But I do have some reservations about Gabby, as do I, but their reunion isn’t a done deal yet, since Stephan still has feelings for Chloe Lane. Yes, there are worse fates than being in love with two beautiful women. Right? I am not sure I agree with that one, but, uh, since it’s Valentine’s Day, I’ll drink to your fate.

first. I need a drink. Here. Take, take my

nick. Come on. Can. Hey, it’s Valentine’s Day. I know, I know Brady, but I, I, I promised Chloe that I wouldn’t tell anyone where she is. I just, I just want to, I want to talk to her, but she’s not answering her. I, I just wanna, I just wanna know how she’s doing. I want to be able to say, Hey, clo, it’s Valentine’s Day.

I really miss you. I really hope you’re okay. And by the way, I love you as well. I wanna tell her that Nick, love. She knows Brady. I promise you she knows. Listen, tomorrow is Marlene’s funeral. Okay? So I think that you should just let this go for now. And focus on helping your family get through that.

You’re probably right. That is what I should do. I’ll try. As a matter of fact, I don’t wanna talk about myself anymore. How, how are you? Uh, I’m fine. I, I’m great actually. I mean, we close the. Italian deal. Yes, we did. . I know. I’m very happy about that. That’s good. But uh, what I’m not so happy about is the fact that you called in sick yesterday because of what was, I told a weird hangover.

It was awful. I strange. Really? Because I only had two drinks and I felt like I got hit by a truck. Uhhuh . Ugh. Well, you’re not the only one out there drinking right now. Um, Eric is drinking. Yeah, I know. I ran into him yesterday and I, and his breasts went like beer. Mm. He invited me to join him. What? Yeah.

Yeah. I declined of course, but I’m worried about him. He’s not in a good place. Molly did just lose his mom. It’s definitely part of it. I think there is a little more to it though. Like what you, he misses you. You miss him. I think the two of you miss each other more than you’ll ever. Look, I doubt Eric’s drinking has anything to do with me.

He’s moved on. He prefers hanging out with Sloane Peterson. Yeah, come on. What about you? Speaking of hanging out, I hear that you’ve been hanging out with ej. What’s going on there? Have you moved on? I don’t think I need this right now. You okay? Just a bit of a headache. It’s all yours. Yeah. Let me get you a fresh one.

No, that’s fine. I didn’t, I didn’t touch it.

That’s so strong. What did you put in this? Too much of something. Yeah, I think I’m good. I’m gonna just gonna, I’m gonna, I’ll take a club soda. I’m gonna dump this out. Disgusting.

We’re actually lucky the Ralph isn’t on some Demira island. What’s an umbrella drink? Fortunately the judge saw Ross a flight risk, can deny his. The only place I want wolf to fly to is Seth’s house. So he can fix him. Well, he is not leaving here until he signs that statement, which he just said he won’t do because his lawyer won’t let him.

Yeah. Five minutes with Melinda Trask and he’ll be begging for a pen. She’ll make it clear that he either flips or he’s going away for life. Okay, great. Well, she can put the screws to Ralph after he wipes that Inci Femba from Stephan’s mind. Yeah. Wow. Linda’s gone for the day. So first thing tomorrow. No, I Look, now you’re not hearing me.

I need a sun today. This is Valentine’s Day. Stephan and I should be together. Abby. Abby, why don’t, why don’t you do this? Okay. Why don’t you just take a breath and try and look at things a little bit differently? Right. Okay. You said to me that a few days ago Stefan couldn’t even stand the side of you, and now he is in love with you.

It’s huge. Now, did you miss the part about Chloe? You missed it now. No, but. I bet it’s temporary. Hmm. Okay. It’s temporary. How? You know, what, how do you know that? I mean, he’s not banging my door down or standing, uh, outside my window with a boombox playing our song. What’s your song? Wait, how, how the hell is that relevant?

I was just curious. A good song? Nobody, you don’t have a song? We don’t have a song. Okay. But you know when baby Chloe and, and Stephan do. I bet they do. I bet they had some, some stupid aria from some boring opera. All, all Forget. Look song or no song. Stephan said to you many times that you were the love of his life.

Right? Okay. Well, if I’m the love of his life, then why isn’t he with me? Why are we not together on this idiotic holiday? Hmm. Maybe beat me. Stephan is Mia because he wants Chloe and her giant arias more than he wants me.

Gabby hates you. You’ve told me that multiple times because it’s. And she has good reason too. I can’t deny. Well, as somebody who comes up with winning strategies for a living, I’m curious, what’s your plan to turn that hate back into love?

Stephanie Jada. Hi. Thank you so much for the flowers. That was so thought. I have been meaning to call. Oh, don’t, don’t worry about it. Don’t worry about it. I know you’re dealing with a lot. How are you? How’s your dad? Uh, a mess. We all are. I honestly don’t know how we’re gonna get through my mom’s funeral tomorrow.

Listen, we’re here for you, everyone that loves you and your family, not just tomorrow, but always. I can’t tell you how much I appreci. So how are you? I’m fine. Um, you know, just focus on work. I, um, I heard you and my cousin Eric, broke up a while ago. I mean, it’s, it’s fine. It just wasn’t meant to be more.

Are you still living here? Above the pub? Yeah, I’ve been so busy with work. I haven’t had time to look for a new place, but Eric and I seem to be on different schedules, so that’s cool. You know, we haven’t run into each other much. Hi.

Hmm. What’s going on with you and e. I dunno what you mean. Hmm. Well you haven’t married twice and now you’re living in the guy’s house. So I just was curious as to whether there’s anything romantic going on or am I right and you just can’t seem to get Eric out of your head? You know what? I have a meeting to get to really?

So I want you to hang in there. And I’m sure you and Chloe will get back together before you know it. Mm-hmm.

Well, I should get going. Call me if you need anything. I will, Eric. I’ll see you tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah. Hi.

I’m sorry about your mom and your aunt and your still mom. Thank you. I know you and Kate got close. We did. She was there for me during that time and I’m glad. Nice to see you moved on. And you have two. I heard you’re dating Sloan Peterson.

When we first spoke, you said you didn’t want to get the divorce, but you felt like you had no choice, that there was no way to turn this thing around. Remember what I told you to think outside the box and given your new renewed confidence about letting Gabby back, I’m assuming you took my advice. So what’s the plan?

it’s not, um, fully formed yet. I, I’m certainly open to ideas. Ah-huh . Yeah. Well, uh, the legal side of the divorce that I can handle, but the, um, personal issues, you know, like love and all that stuff. Yeah. That’s not my back. Valentine’s Day for me is just 24 more potentially billable hours. Well, I’ve got the cash.

What’s your take? I love Gabby. She despises me. What’s. Again, I’m no expert, but I can offer my observations, please. I see a man sitting in his hotel room who’s careful and deliberate complete waste of time. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in his life. If you wanna get anything, you have to be aggressive.

Stop worrying about what other people, how they’re gonna feel about what you do, and just do. You sound a lot like Gabby, you know, be beneath her tough exterior. She’s actually a, a big softy, huge romantic. Don’t look Natalie, but I think you found your play. Yes. I shouldn’t try to win Gabby back with logic or reason.

I mean, forget trying to craft the perfect arguments. Change your mind. I. I go straight for her heart.

Ah, here are what shall we toast to next? How about your promising you beginning with Stephanie Johnson? Um, to Stephanie, Stephanie.

All right guys. Sorry to break up the party, but I promised the kids pizza for dinner. So, oh, well send Charlotte and Thomas hugs from their uncles. I will, uh, and, um, good luck with the, uh, situation. They’re gonna need it. See you, John. Thanks Later. Ej, let get you something besides water. Huh? We gotta celebrate our victory.

Thanks Stefan. But I think I’m going to go upstairs and take a shower. Hopefully that’ll clear my out. Thanks.

Relax. Father, I’m not gonna kill. I’m just gonna give him a few more doses. So he goes feeling off to going off the deep end and then he will be out at Damara. Huh? But I will return my attention to vengeance tomorrow, tonight. This is for love. You said after Ralph did his thing, the Stephan said he loved you with all of his.

Yes, he did. And, and we kissed and it was like we’ve never been apart. So that’s why I don’t understand. I mean, Valentine’s Day is almost over and he hasn’t called me yet. Okay, well, I’ll bet, I’ll bet that he’s planning a special surprise for you. You’ll see your phone’s gonna ring any minute.

Told you, well, you were wrong. It’s Lee, what the hell do you want, Gabby? I’m so glad you picked up. Well, I’m not, why are you calling me? It’s Valentine’s Day. Why else would a husband be calling his wife except to invite her over for a romantic dinner? I have already told you on more than one occasion that you nauseate me.

The thought of having a meal with you makes me gag. Okay, well, well we can discuss our divorce then. What If they’re not discussed? I sent you the papers. Just sign them so I can be done with you. Oh, and please do us a favor. Lose my number.

So you told me so, huh? Oh, sorry. I had a good feeling. Oh God. They. Oh my God. Having a missed call from Stephan. You know, he must have called me when I was on the phone with that jerk. Oh my God, he left me a voicemail. We’re on speaker

Gabriela, my love. It’s Valentine’s Day and I can’t stop thinking about you. Please come see me at the house counting the minutes until we’re together again.

Ye of little Faith

Sloan and I are a casual thing. What about you? Are you seeing anyone? No, I’m not really looking to get into anything right now. Judy, I know things didn’t work out, but I want you to know, I think you’re great. You choose to be with will be a lucky person.

Enjoy your night. I will. You too.

Ej. Hello. Are you in here? Ej.

Uh, I, I just wanted to check on you, visit the office earlier. You seemed a little out of it. Oh, I’m, I’m fine now. The shower seems, soo down the tree. What about you? Have you managed to shake off the last of that nasty hangover? Yes. Thank God. It’s, it’s, it’s all done now. Um, wow. I’m, I’m, I’m gonna go. Oh, uh, Nicole, we agreed that when you were feeling better, I’ll take you out to a proper dinner.

Yes. Yeah. Yes, we did. Mm. How you up for it tonight?

I got your message inviting me over, so here I am. You okay? Tomorrow’s wing on me, obviously, but I’m trying not to think.

I’m here. Anything you need. Thank you, Chad. That means a lot. Would you rather be home? No. No, I wouldn’t. I’m exactly where I wanna be. I’m so glad you called. Good. I’m glad you were free. Nice. I was scared that maybe you got a better offer for Valentine’s Day . Well, it could be better than pizza. With my new guy and his two adorable kids,

I guess Gabby’s not coming over. She said the thought of having dinner with me makes her physically ill. But I know beneath all that disgusted, her feelings from me are still there. The passion we shared that doesn’t just go away, so. No Valentine’s Day reunion. Nope. Guess I’ll just waste another night here alone, unless of course, um, you’d like to have dinner with me.

Can’t say I’m not tempted. Hold that thought. Oh, hey, hey. Do you have plans tonight? Possibly break ’em. I think we should have. Sounds good. My place, I’m 30. I was thinking about a restaurant and don’t worry, I won’t suggest the pub because I know how much you ate our clammed shower. Just thinking the bistro.

I’ll see you there.

Sorry. No plans tonight. Gonna have to eat dinner on your own.

Great. Mines cheeseburger. Medium rare, you know it, but, uh, got mine to go better. Would taste better with a beer? I bet it would. Mind if I join you. Be my guest.

You wanna go to dinner tonight? I mean, you you are aware it’s Valentine’s Day. It’s kind of hard not to be. Well, I mean a, a meal was you, I mean that’s, that’s kind of a. Big deal. What happened at the office today? That’s kind of a big deal. One we never would’ve closed if it wasn’t for you. Oh, I’m not so sure about that.

Oh, oh, I do. I was struggling hard today, and you came in with grace and confidence and carried us over the finish line. That is an achievement worth celebrating. That’s very nice of you to say. It is just with the holiday and I, um, this was an Italian deal, right? Mm-hmm. , mm-hmm. . So how about this? Let’s pretend we’re in Rome where it is currently, February 15th.

Just a regular day. Zero expectations when in Rome. Okay. Uh, why don’t you go get trust? And we’ll head out. Okay? Okay.

You. Look great, please. Okay, time out. What’s wrong? Like, I know it’s Valentine’s Day, but I just wanna get one thing straight right off the bat. This is not a date I came for the by, so you can just, you know, get rid of the side order of romance.

You look beautiful.

I hear it. You what? Bas Carmen, the opera. I, I know it’s opera. Yeah. Well, in the Aria era, she sings

love. It’s a beautiful wild bird. That no one contained. And when I see you, when I think of you, I hear it in my head and also in my heart. I think of it as our song. Our song. Oh,

I am so happy that you accepted my invitation.

You had meet Dotson. Why did you go to all this trouble? Oh, no. No. It’s never any trouble to make the woman I love so special.

Your favorite wine. Our favorite wine. I can’t believe you remembered. I remember everything now.

Seven. There’s, there’s nothing I want more than for that to be true. It’s all I’ve ever wanted since you came back.

Trusting this is real. That we can recapture what we had. It isn’t just sex, it’s our, our love, our marriage. Our magic. This is the kind of magic you’re talking about.

Mm. White pizza. Nice thin crest. Perfect. Yeah, if you want, I can order you a whole nother pie, . No, no, it’s okay. I’m good. Good. Well, I hope you saved room for dessert. Thomas. Charlotte, you’re up.

Hey guys, what’s going on? Pull your eyes and hold up your. Okay.

You can open them though. We made two cookies Valentine. No way you guys made this. We’ve been, they have been baking all day long. Oh my God. This is so thoughtful and so beautiful and I’m sure super delicious. Thank you so much. Hey, and guess what? I brought you a Valentine’s Surprise. Same. Y’all, close your eyes.

Hands out,

no peeking Charlotte and open.

Put words on them. Mm-hmm. . You pace yourself now . I was just going to do one with Stephanie.

Oh, it says sweet. Watch us exactly what you are. But what about my cookie? Should I break it up to share? We already had our cookies. Yeah, we did. We ate about three or four of ’em, right? Yeah. Yeah, but you can share your heart death.

Very nice sharing a table with you. Thanks for letting me join anytime.

Hmm. I’ll be Valentine’s Day Detective Hunter. I catch commiss.

Ah, damn. Those, uh, those sugar crashes are just, uh, there’s something. Oh, one minute. The kids are running around here, 200 miles an hour in the next minute, boom. I like a light. Those you are just the cutest and this cookie so special. I almost didn’t wanna eat it.

Do you know how special that you are?

It means a lot to me that my kids.

I just, I was so happy around you. Well, I love being around them too, and their dad. I don’t mind being around him either. Tell me, blush him.

So we don’t have to call this a date. Hmm. All right. Then what are we gonna call it?

How about or play?

Chloe, Hey, it’s me. Listen, I wanted to let you know that I talked to Nicole. She told me you were okay. Very happy to hear that. Thank God. Um, she told me that you might need some space and I’m here to tell you that I’m gonna respect that, give that to you. I also wanted to let you know that, that I love you.

God, I miss you very, very much.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

Thank you

Gabby.

I just wanna say how truly sorry I am for everything that I put you through, and I hope you know that everything I did, I did out of love. Of course. I knew that. And as bad as things got between us, I never lost hope that you come around. I just knew you would. Deep down, I knew I would too.

Here’s. First of many happy Valentine’s stays together as husband and wife.

Shall we sit? Huh? You have Harold service dinner? No. No. I don’t wanna waste another minute. Let’s go upstairs so we can spend the rest of the night there. Fine by me. Hi, love you, Stephan. I love you too, Chloe.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 So there’s a question on the table. Do you give us a spectator or does your wife spend the foreseeable future as a guest of the state?

Come on. You’ve had all night to think about it. Actually, it didn’t take that long to decide. The answer is no. What? You heard me the answers? No. Wait, wait, Jennifer. No, no. There’s nothing. Don’t talk about, there’s nothing to talk about. We are not giving those two vultures. Now since neither one of you have ever produced anything worthwhile in your life, I’m sure that you cannot comprehend the amount of work and pain that this man, your friend, your father, put into this paper, Jennifer, and I know that you don’t care that it’s a good paper and it does something important in this town, but it is and it does.

So I am not gonna let the two of you slither in here and take it from him. Well, that was a very pretty speech, Ms. Ste. It’s funny. You’ve always been so good at sneering at me and judging me, but hang on. I believe it was you who got high and hit somebody with their car, and what a coincidence that somebody was me and then you drove off.

Not only is that wanton and coward, It’s illegal and that means prison time, which as your victim, I think you richly deserve. Well, there is something we both can agree on. What? Go ahead. Tough cops. I have it coming.

Was it Hemingway who said writing is easy, just open a vein and start. So I must, so I must, I’ve got the grubby headline, but where do I start? Ah, light bulb small barflies were a buzz When Alex Kikis and Ally Horton started sucking lemons and swapping spit. You didn’t hear this from lady Whistleblower, but it would appear as though those Kiki brothers have a pension for breaking hearts.

Can’t wait till you read that. Jackson K. What are you babbling about now you.

Oh, hi. Hi. Yourself. Aren’t you supposed to be at work? Took a gnarly lunch. Things are pretty slow at the office. Is that the only reason he looked like he just lost your best friend? He wasn’t my best friend. We’ve actually known each other for a couple of. Okay, I’m gonna go on the limb here. You’re talking about John and Damara, right?

So like I said, I mean, if you’re worried about anybody coming in between Ally and Chanel, it’s Alex. So he’s the problem. Yes. I mean, Chanel is always finding them together. You know, she even found Alex’s underwear at Allie’s house. Yes, I know, I know. Chanel told me all about the underwear. Okay. So then, you know, it’s stuff like that that’s messing things up between Allie and Chanel.

If. Is to blame for their problems. It’s Alex

Chanel cannot know that you’re here. Maybe if we just ignore her, she’ll just go away.

That took me long enough. Why now? Genius.

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

So after spending all that time together, you know, pretending we were a couple. I realized I was feeling things for him. And then on New Year’s Eve, we kissed, you faked something for so long and turned real, right? Well, that’s what it seemed like. So we decided to start dating. But, but what, what? What’s the problem?

The problem. He’s still hung up on Chanel. Look, I know Alex is a bit of a loose cannon, . That’s a nice way to put it, but he also makes for a pretty convincing scapegoat. Now I wanna talk about you and Chanel, and you keep making this conversation about Alex. So you think I’m trying to blame him. For something that you did.

That’s exactly what I think. Alex May have a habit of showing up in places where he is unwanted, but as far as Chanel and Allie’s problems go, there’s more than enough blame to go around, so, so , so it’s my fault. That Chanel and I walked into a bar and saw he and Allie together. No, but it’s your fault for almost kissing Chanel in the hospital.

You are the one who’s got Chanel all turned around so you can swear until you’re blue in the face that this is all Alex’s fault, but don’t get a kid. Or Johnny, it’s yours too.

Uh, sorry, I, I didn’t let you in. I was on the phone. Oh, it’s, it’s okay. I, I found my keys finally in the bottom of your purse. Yeah. How would they be? So, uh, what are you doing here? I wanted to talk to you about Alex.

Look. Okay. I get it right. You’re protective of Chanel, but I promise you, I, I, I respect the fact that she is with Allie. I do. And nearly kissing her. Does that how you’re right. You’re right. I went too far. Right, but that’s over now. I mean, nothing happened between us, but Chanel told me that you nearly both did something that she regret, but we didn’t.

We stopped. I don’t think that’s quite the merit badge You think it is? Why you so focus on Chanel anyway? If you really wanted to make sure that nothing happens, you’d steer clear of her all together. Now you do are divorce you. You a good looking boy. Don’t you have another girl you could chase after?

So you’re just gonna give up on Johnny. I’m not giving up facing reality. Meaning? Meaning. Johnny’s still very attracted to Chanel. . He’s not in love with her. Okay. First of all, that’s not reality. That’s a a nagging doubt. And you don’t get, you don’t throw the towel in over a doubt. I mean, you were the one that told me not to give up on Stephan.

That was different. He was being brainwashed stuff. Johnny isn’t being programmed to go after Chanel. He wants to, but I was in the same kind of situation. No, you weren’t. Yeah. Sefa was in love with Chloe. I thought there was no hope that it was a lost cause. And you reminded me that I’m not somebody who gives up.

Yeah. Cuz you’re not someone who gives. If you want something, you go after it. There’s nothing stopping you. No one would ever say that about me. I would , when I first met you, you bared into my hotel room demanding tickets to the to Mera Gala, and then you showed up here and demanded a promotion. No, that wasn’t such a big deal.

Of course I was. You wanted something, you went after it and you got it. I mean, what’s the difference between fighting for a man and fighting for a job? The job still isn’t in love with his ex-wife. Alex, what, what about Alex? Last night when I saw you two together, I am so sorry about what I said. I, I just, I overreacted.

No. Look, I, I know how must have looked, you know, me taking the lemon from his mouth and into your. Yeah, that did not look great. And it was actually kind of gross, but it wasn’t that big of a deal. And God knows I’ve done my fair share of stupid stuff. Hey, uh, how about we, how about we go on a walk and talk about this?

Oh, okay. Yeah. Um, but first I, I just, I have to tell you this. Last night I got so upset and I, I realize now that the reason why I got that upset was because of all the crap that’s been going on between us, and that is on me. No. Okay. No. Yes, yes. When I found Alex’s underwear, I just, I. I just jumped to the wrong conclusion and my totally reasonable explanation and I should have just listened to you.

You’re my girlfriend and I trust you, and I wanted to come here and tell you face to face that I believe you. I know nothing happened between you and Alex Jackson. You’ve interrupted my dictation. I gathered so what are you writing your memoirs? No, I’m working on my new gossip column. Oh my gosh. I should have figured after all the dirt you’ve given them.

It’s just a matter of time until the intruder put you on their payroll. Excuse me. A respected journalist, Kawa wouldn’t stoop to work for a rag like the intruder. Okay. And since when are you a respected journalist? Since I got hired at The Spectator.

What are you talking about? I’m talking about finally paying the crime that I committed. Jennifer. This is also giving into blackmail. What about the fact that she deserves to go to prison? She just admitted it herself, you know? You think somebody who went around dosing people with psychosis inducing drugs like there was baby aspirin, should maybe not be the one who’s talking about who deserves to be punished.

How is Sarah by the way? You know Sarah, the beautiful, brilliant doctor you were gonna marry until this one turned her into a vegetable. He’s right. Sander, you didn’t exactly trade up. Come on quick. Hey, didn’t expect him to make his tea, did you? It doesn’t hate you, us and I reason.

You’re right. You’re right. She says she’s ready to face the music. I’m ready to call the tune.

Yes. May I speak to Commissioner Hernandez, please? This is Gwen Rusche. It’s quite urgent.

That doesn’t, that doesn’t make sense. The Spectator is a real newspaper. They write objectively about real issues, not Cher’s birthday, May 20th, and they use more than two syllable words. Oh. How humorous are you? How du Oh, and how delusional you are. Did you actually get a contract or did, did your psychic just see it in your future?

No, I don’t have a contract yet. Okay, well don’t hold your breath. Jack DeVere wouldn’t hire you in a million years. Oh wait, he already turned you down? Proving he doesn’t know the first thing about running a newspaper. You know, it was inevitable that something like this would happen. He should have been forced out ages ago.

Okay, well, like I said, don’t hold your breath. He owns the company for now. What do you mean from now? Oh, I didn’t tell you. He’s giving it to my best friend, g Guinevere. She’s gonna be the new editor in. What? No, no, that’s, that’s, you know, as a journalist, I’m always searching for the perfect words. You know, the if you will.

I shouldn’t have said he’s giving it to her. It’s more like she’s prying it from his cold, cold hands.

I’m on hold. You sure you don’t wanna change your mind? Last chance. Do your worst? I’ll try. Yes. Uh, commissioner Hernandez, this is Gwen Ruzek. It’s urgent. I was just, um, calling you because I wanted to ra Rafu Jack. Sorry. Uh, To bother you. Yes. Look, uh, Gwen just wanted to tell you that she thinks she’s doing a good job, right?

Talk to you later.

You could have the paper.

Sounds like that Wendy is a very nice girl. Yeah, she is. And understanding too, considering all that foolishness you’ve put her through with Chanel. Yeah, I really liked her. You know, I still, I still really like her. Um, yeah, for, for a minute, I, I definitely thought there was a chance for, I dunno, a shot between us, but, uh, that was before I blew it all to hell.

So. One thing I learned here in Salem, there is no such thing as blowing it all to hell, , because there was, believe me, I’d be single right now, . So you know, if you think you and this girl have a future, you need to stop moping around and do something about it. Wait what? Find her and tell. You made a huge mistake.

I’m not just worried that Johnny still hung up on Chanel. I mean, the truth is I don’t know him very well. Well, it’s getting to know each other. That’s the fun part. What if I find things out about him and aren’t so great? Well, I, I call that a negative attitude. I think you’re expecting the worst, maybe.

But it’s for a good. Okay. The other day I was talking to Allie and she said some pretty scary things about him, especially about the way he treats women. It was, it was like she was trying to warm me off. I don’t think that was about you. What do you mean? Well, Johnny’s ex, the one you think he’s hung up on, considering allie’s, her girlfriend.

I think she’s probably worried that her brother still has feelings for Chanel too. So you think call. Just cell, she’s mad at her brother or she wants to run him down. And obviously she’s not gonna have an objective opinion on him, but it doesn’t even matter what she feels. It matters what you feel. If you like Johnny, right?

Yeah. Okay. I do. And it’s simple. If you want Johnny, you gotta Okay. For him.

You’re right. Nothing happened that night. I know, and I’m so sorry that I thought it did, and I want you to know that nothing happened between Johnny and me, but full disclosure, Johnny did drive me home that night. For a second, I thought that something might happen. You did. Well. I was just so upset when I saw you and Alex together that I was convinced that you had cheated on me with him, and I thought that maybe if I slept with Johnny, I could pay you back, but.

God am I glad I didn’t, because you mean way too much to me to risk losing you, which is why I just wanna put all of this behind us and just stop all this fighting and work this out. I love you Horton. I love you too, Dupree.

Jack. No. You can’t let her do this. It’s wrong. No, when it’s wrong is you going to prison. But you’ve spent your whole life building that paper. No, no. We built it built past tense. We did what we set out to do. That’s why we went to Boston. That’s why we gave paper the spectator to Abigail. That’s why it’d be her legacy.

Well, Abigail’s gone. She’s gone. And if giving Gwen the paper means you get to keep your freedom, that’s, that’s an even trade to.

Thank you.

Well, are you finally satisfied? Excuse me. This is why you came to Salem in the first place, isn’t it? To pay him back. To make him suffer. I just wanted, what was mine? really bull. It was never enough, never enough having what you wanted. You had to make everybody else suffer. You did everything that you could to, to, to, to damage and to destroy his family.

And when that wasn’t enough, you, you took his life’s work, he said. Finally, finally, enough. Are you finally, finally satisfied.

Yeah. Yeah. Maybe you’re right. Maybe I just need to let Wendy know how I feel about her. Mm-hmm. , that’s the spirit. But after everything that’s happened, I, I, I don’t even know what I’d say. . Are you kidding? That’s the easy part. You pull out your phone and call her, tell her it’s Valentine’s Day and you wanna see her.

Simple as that. . Well, it seems my work here is done. , stay away from Chanel.

Don’t you wanna get that? No, I, oh well, uh, I think I hung up. good. Yeah, we can let voice milk at it. I actually have it on the setting of like one to two rings, cuz I keep getting these robo calls and they’re just driving me crazy. All right. Okay, well let’s go. Uh, did you change your ring tone? Yeah. Yeah, I changed it yesterday.

I, yeah, I, I, but why are we talking about this? I mean, you’re back. Who cares about my damn phone?

What are you doing? Uh, you know, I just have to make a quick call. You have to make a call right now? Yeah. Just checking something. Are you calling my phone serious? It’s really not a big deal. I just changed my ringtone. I

really Horton. Nice try, Alex. You can come out now.

Fancy meeting you.

Wait, what do you mean that Gwen pried the paper away from Jack? I’m sorry, sweets, but I am in the middle of something, as you can tell. We should catch up later. Nope, that’s not gonna happen. Tell me what happened. Can you just forget I said anything? No, no. Like I said, that’s not gonna happen. What is gonna happen is you’re gonna tell me exactly what went down between Jack and Gwen.

I think that’s between Gwen and her dad, don’t you? Oh, and this is between you and me. What did Gwen do? No, you’re not dissatisfied. And I don’t think you ever will be in footing. Kane is your raison de.

You can even be snotty in French. Oh. Oh, okay. And this conversation has stopped being constructed. Well, whoa, whoa, wait. The conversation stops being constructive as soon as you got what you want. Oh, you’re just trying to shield Gwen of being so frail and fragile and everything. Maybe I’m trying to shield your wife.

She doesn’t stop cataloging Gwen’s sins. Gwen might be forced to point out that none of this could possibly be happening if your precious Jennifer hadn’t gotten behind a wheel of a car while she was high as a kite. Gwen might also point out that not only could she have been killed, but many other innocent bystanders as well, is she’s sorry for that profoundly, sorry.

And like my daughter whose idea of atonement is to go up and do something even more vile and less obscenity. Again, not constructive Jack. That kind of talk might make me want to point out that you wouldn’t even have the paper if you hadn’t blackmailed it from Leo’s mother. And then you could point out one of my many crimes, Gwen would counter attack and on and on and on.

A truth is I don’t think the four of us are enjoying each other’s company. So we’ll be going, I hope you can see there’s not as a door closing, but as a window opening.

Dad, don’t, don’t ever call me that.

No, you still think I’m hung up on Chanel? Ah, real smooth Tamera lead with your ex-wife. Okay. Um. Wendy, I know we have gotten wires crossed as of late. Oh God, wires. Am I writing an office memo? And the reason it sounds stupid is because you know that she doesn’t wanna see or hear from you. Just face facts, man.

You blew it.

Wendy. Hey, I, I was just wondering if you’re not doing anything right now, would you like to meet me in the park?

You changed your ring town, huh? It Chanel. This is. , what you think? . Elliot and I got drunk last night. I mean, you saw us. I was wasted. Yeah. I try not to judge. Anyway, we just came back here and I was in bad shape, so I just, I crashed in the office again, just like last time. Mm-hmm. , right? Is that true?

No. No, it’s not true. Alex and I lept.

I asked you a question. I can’t reveal my sources. Jim, tell me what Gwen the hell you were tracking down a story. You are going to find out Mr. Kakkis, that it’s not wise to attack one of my spectator. Oh, he’s one of your journalists. Who else did you hire? Beavers and Butthead. And what’s your job? Are you in charge of like the gardening column?

I’m more like the hide muscle.

After everything Jack did for you? For her, you’re okay stealing his newspaper? He gave it to me. Actually. We’re gonna go celebrate. Would you like to join us? You can be Leo’s plus one. I think I’ll pass.

You don’t know what you’re missing.

Joseph Floater must be rolling over in his grave.

Hey, hey yourself. So what, what? Actually, I was wondering if you had any plans for tonight?

You, you slept together. It was not anything we planned. No. No. But you didn’t do anything to avoid it. Did you Go out drunk, come back here? How does that scenario usually play out? No. Listen, listen. Ali was just really upset about you. Mm-hmm. and I was a mess over Stephanie. And, and I, I, we thought that maybe we could go for a drink and it was my fault.

It was my fault. I just, just go away situation. Okay. Okay. Just please do not blame Allie. Just go. Okay. Alright.

I just wanna say that I think you two are really great together and I care about you both and I,

Alex was trying to cover for me, but he’s right, I was drunk. It was not at all what I intended to. At all. Honestly, I, I saw you with Johnny and I thought you were gonna hook up with him. No, I wasn’t because I wouldn’t betray you like that. But obviously you didn’t have the same concern. Hey, no, look, I meant everything that I said before.

Okay? I, I love you. I wanna be with you. You are the only one that I wanna be with. So can we just forget that this happened? Forget this ever happened. Please.

I’m. But I just can’t do that

tonight. . Yeah. I was thinking maybe we could do something. I mean, yes. I mean, I’d, I’d love to, but I thought you said you changed your mind about me. So I had, and then I changed.

You know it’s Valentine’s Day, right? I do. I also know it’s not exactly Valentine’s themed, but I was thinking maybe we could see that horror movie. Evil Dead too. Sorry, that was one night only. Wow. But I think it’s streaming, so if you want to, we could go to my place and watch it. What’s the date?

Okay. Okay.

I will, uh, call down for some champagne and caviar. So you pulled it off. You got the paper. Talk about everything coming up. Roses get the scene that way, doesn’t it? Yes. And this is just the beginning. By the time we’ve made our mark on the Spectator, you and Zander are going to be Salem’s hottest power couple.

Oh. We just have to wait and see room.

I am so sorry. What are you talking about? This is all my fault. They could only do this to you because of what I had done. Ah, look, the only people that I blame for this is Xander and my daughter. You tried so hard with her. Look, I, I, I don’t really want to talk about that anymore. I. Aim to spend Valentine’s Day with you.

Sounds lovely. Well, how about a romantic lunch at the bistro? I’d like that very much.

And for the record my giving, Gwen the paper. Was selfish on my part because I just couldn’t live without you.

Well, call me. As soon as you get this. You will not believe what I just found. What did you just find out? Oh, okay. So how do I put this succinctly? So Gwen, with the help of Xander is stealing the spectator from my uncle Jack. And then to add insult to injury, they’re hiring Leo to like take control of the gossip column or something.

Just what Salem needs more dirt. Okay. You seem to be in a foul mood. That would be an understatement, brother. I just got back from Allian Chan. Okay, well you guys usually have a lot of fun together, so Uhhuh, , what happened? What happened? I destroyed their relationship.

You can’t mean that this can’t be it. You know how much you mean to me. You know how much we, us being together means to. Being with you. It is, it is like nothing I have ever felt, and it’s nothing that I ever felt I could feel for a woman, let alone my best friend. Okay. And when you, when you kiss me for the first time, it.

Opened up a part of me that I didn’t even know I had. And I, I know it took me a long time to come to terms with it, but once I came out to my friends and, and family and to myself and I was able to actually finally be with you, I realized, I realized how special it was and how lucky I was.

We have been through so much together. We have. So much you opened up an entire new part of me and, and I love you so much. We love each other so much, so it can’t, they can’t be over between us.

I’m sorry, but it is, yes, everything you said is true. We did share everyth. And we did love each other and now we’re just hurting each other and the last thing that I ever wanna do is hurt you. So I think it’s best if we just end things now, be before we hurt each other even more.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Uh, the spectator is so boring. Who cares about politics, wars, the economy. I’ve fallen asleep three times. I’m still on the front page. I can’t wait for you and Xander to take over this rag. Shock it back to life. Sanders said he was gonna be here first thing in the morning to talk strategy. He’s probably just at the gym.

Remember I told you last night working out that bodacious body of his is a full-time job here, have a chocolate stop stressing. What’d you do at those? They were giving them away at the front desk. I love a Valentine’s Day free beef. Thank you for the lovely night in front of the fire missing you, Les.

Who’s Les? Mattie? I think you’ve stolen somebody’s chocolates. Oopsy here. Just enjoy one. Oh wait, not that one. None of those Here. You can have one of those two. Relax Quinny. He’ll be here. What if you are wrong? I mean, what if he’s changed his mind and he is gone back to Sarah

been watching me sleep. I’ve been asking myself a question. A question. Is there. A more beautiful sight anywhere in the world than a sleeping Sarah Horton , and the answer, the indisputable answer is no.

Happy Valentine’s Day.

Hey, I want to talk to you. Trying to me, what could you and I possibly have to discuss? Oh, I don’t know about the fact that you murdered my grandmother.

Good morning, sleep. Oh, something smells incredible. Is this what I think it is? , my famous heart-shaped waffles, . Happy Valentine’s Day baby.

He used to make these every Valentine’s morning back in Florida. . Well, I thought it might be nice to revive the tradition since you’re staying here with me until you and Ally work things out. Oh, um, about that after last night, I. Maybe staying here longer than expected. Why? What happened last night? I almost cheated on Allie.

Oh, my head.

Wait, where’s a few weeks ago you said that I was hot. One of the hot women you’ve ever been with, so were you lying?

Not even a little bit.

Maybe it was just a dream. Oh, you have any aspirin?

Oh God, what have I done?

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

Blackmail by my own daughter and my best mate. What’s this world coming to?

I didn’t think I’d been gone long enough for you to start talking to yourself. Jennifer, miss mc. God, yes,

Why didn’t you call me? Let me, let me pick up the airport. You were coming home. I wanted to be a surprise for Valentine’s Day. I can’t think of a better idea. I can’t wait to celebrate. Mm, same here. But before we do, I want you to tell me why you were so upset when I first walked in.

Okay. Now, I’m not a kid. I’m a man and a Dara. You’d be wise to remember that. Look, clearly you’re upset. You need to get your facts straight. Had nothing to do with your grandmother’s untimely demise. David Vitale killed Susan. Yeah, after you helped David kidnap her. And Bonnie too. Don’t forget, Bonnie, your cousin’s wife, you know your own family.

You grabbed her two and for what? A cut of some ransom money from my dad that you never even saw. I hope it was worth it. Clearly you’re very angry, but rather than blaming me, oh, of course I blame you. I blame you. You could have turned Ava down, but you didn’t because you’re greedy, worthless, scum. And frankly, I don’t know how a woman like Sarah Horton stays married to someone like you.

She can’t what? Sarah’s Divo. You happy there?

Franks? Um, about last night. Oh, not it? No, don’t look at me like that. . Like what? Like you’re upset. No, no. I’m not upset. I just, I’m sensing some regret from you. No, no, no, no, no. Last night was, It reminded me of, of what it felt like when we first fell in love. But, but I am just coming out of my marriage and I just, I really am not ready to.

Do anything with anyone anytime soon as far as jumping into things. Can you understand that? Sure. I can Really? Yeah. You use me to get over Xander.

Oh my God. I can’t believe this. You can’t believe what? What do you mean? Can’t believe what you know, that you and I? Yeah, we did more than once. Don’t remind me. Was it really that bad? No, it was fine. Fine. Okay. You were amazing. Thank you. Did you wanna do it again? No one. Okay. I’m just asking. Chill. Chill.

How am I supposed to chill? What happened last night was like, monumentally bad. Epically bad. Allie, why are you freaking out right now? I mean, you were all about it last night, at least from what I could tell. I know we were also both hammered, but Oh my God. Please don’t tell me I misread this. No, no. Alex, you didn’t misread anything.

I, I did wanna sleep with you. It’s. What I can’t believe that I did this. I completely betrayed my girlfriend.

Chanel, how many times do I have to say this? You alcohol and cute boys or girls donuts? Johnny and I weren’t drunk. Someone polished off my wine. Report it, but we didn’t drink it. Wait, back up. Now you left here last night. You and I. Space and I went for a walk, and then I ran into Johnny, and then he asked me if I wanted to go watch a horror movie.

And so I told him no, but I told him that I would buy him a drink instead. Mm-hmm. . I was just killing time. And so we walked into the bar and we walked in on the worst thing I could have seen, which was. And Alex Kikis. First I cheated on trip with Chanel and now I have cheated on Chanel with you. Do you know what this means?

This means I’m a serial cheater. Allie, relax. It’s not that big of a deal. Of course it is. I know sex doesn’t mean anything to you, but uh, it means a ton to me. Why else would I have so much of it? You have one time, no strings attached. Meaningless sex. I cannot do that because I’m in a committed relationship, or at least I was until last night.

I don’t even know why I’m talking to you about this. It’s not what you’d understand. Oh, I understand Ellie, and look, I like hooking up. But to say that it’s meaningless, that’s not fair.

Look, this whole Stephanie thing falling for her, screwing things up with. It taught me a lot, and yes, I may still have casual sex, but I’m not casual about sex anymore for the first time in my life, I understand that there can be real feelings involved. Even love. Sorry Alex. I’m just furious with myself, but I’m taking it out.

It’s okay. How give anything to go back in time and change the way I behaved last night. I mean, seeing Chanel with my brother, why did I get so upset? I mean, she was pretty upset too. Yeah, but she wanted to fix things. She wanted to take me home, have me sleep it off, and I was just such an image to her unreasonable bitch that she ended up leaving with Johnny.

Look on the bright side, maybe they cheated.

I, I, I never meant to make you feel used at all. I’m, why are you smiling ? Because I, it’s actually okay. Really? I knew all along last night was just about rebound sex for you. You did? Mm-hmm. . Look, I would have to be a complete idiot to think that you suddenly fell back in love with me after all this. But hey, if being with me helps you forget about Xander, then I’m happy to be of service.

There is no way Xander is with Sarah. How do you not? First of all, she wants nothing to do with him. Second, he’s totally into you. Now I give it one month, two months tops before your re-engagement announcement runs in the Spectator. And of course you will give Lady Whistleblower the exclusive on all the wedding details.

Yeah. I wouldn’t buy your bridesmaid dress just yet. What are you waiting for? You and Zander are sleeping together, right? It happened one time and um, he made it pretty clear to me the next morning that he wasn’t ready to jump into something with me. Why? Well, lots of reasons, Mattie. But

the big one, I think I scared him off a bit because I told him I loved him. That was your first mistake, and that was before we slept together. That was your second mistake. So there you have it. The sad tale of my marriage coming to an end. Well, I don’t think it’s. I think it’s fantastic. She finally got the sense to dump you.

Oh, I’m glad that my misery can bring you so much joy, Johnny. I’m sure it’ll bring Sarah some joy too. You know, when she moves on somewhat new. Someone who’s not a heartless animal. It’s been lovely talk Kim Johnny. But I really have to go. Oh, we’re not finished. I believe we are. This conversation started with your role in my grandmother’s death, and it won’t be finished until you’ve paid.

Sandra and Gwen are blackmailing you. It’s awful, Jennifer. It is. It is. So h it doesn’t even seem real, but it is. It’s really happening. They can’t expect us to just hand over the. It’s our life’s work. What choice do we have? Let’s not end to go to the police and tell them that you hit Gwen with your car and drove away while you were high on drugs.

Well let them, better yet, I’ll go down to the station myself and make a full confession

for what you gonna kidnap. Me too. Susan was never supposed to go her. That was never part of the plan. She admit taking her. I let her go. Oh yeah, you let her go. You let her go right to her. Eva held her at gunpoint, it forced her into that hill, and I bet when they were speeding down that dark road, I bet my grandmother started to pray.

Not just for herself, but for you two, for God to have mercy on your soul, because that’s the kind of woman she was. My grandmother was kind and generous and loving. She deserved a long life with a peaceful ending, but that’s not what she got, is it? Now, when that car went crashing through that guard, All she felt was sheer terror.

That’s how she got to spend the last moments of her life. And then you can deny it, you can blame, maybe vitali all you want, but you know damn well the parts you played in her death. I can’t tell you how much I regret what I’ve done of it. I was sick when heard what happened to Susan. I don’t want to hear it.

But my ex stepdad, the police commissioner, I’m sure he’d be very interested to know that you just confessed. Maybe I’ll give him a call right now. You can tell RA whatever you want. I’ll just deny it. It’s hearsay. It’s not admissible in court. I recently learned there are loopholes around those kinds of things.

Like I said, it’s been nice chatting. For what it’s worth, I am truly sorry about Susan. People like you, you don’t feel remorse. You’re not sorry Sandra, but you will be.

You’re telling me. Almost slept with Johnny because you saw Allie doing shots with some guy, not some guy. Alex, what? What if that was more innocent than you think? I know what I saw Mama. She was into him. Well, they were throwing back to kill shots. Do enough of those and you’ll be into just about anything.

But I am sure that all that Ali was doing was indulging in a little, uh, alcohol-induced flirt. There you go again, making excuses for her. Just like when I found his underwear, all I said was that her story made. She lets him sleep over naked, gets wasted with him at the bar, sends out all kinds of signals as she wants him, and you want me to think that I have nothing to worry about.

It’s all just innocent fun. Is that what you’re telling me? No, baby, baby. All I’m telling you is I like Ali. I like the two of you together and I just don’t want you giving up on her until you are absolutely sure she has given you a damn good reason to.

And whenever I ask him, who do you love the most? He always says, and we all know . Right. Yeah. Um, okay, well I’m gonna be by to pick Henry up later, so thank you Will Allie about what I said before, just drop it. I did not mean to upset you. How did you think I was going to react to you suggesting that my girlfriend slept with my brother?

I knew you were feeling guilty and I just wanted to try to make you feel better. You know, you’d be even, or whatever

the logic of Alex Cian. I know, I know. I admit I am not a relationship expert, but I do know you and Shail have something very special, and I do care about you both and I’d hate to think that I played any messing things up for you boys. No, you didn’t. You’re not responsible for the problems you’ve been having and, um, you did not betray anyone last.

This is all on me and, uh, it’s my mistake to fix. So what are you gonna do? Offer starters. I’m going to tell Chanel the truth that you and I slept together. Um,

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What the last thing you need to do is tell Chanel about us. Really? Should I let her find out from someone else? Allie, how the hell would that happen? It’s just you and I, who know? I would never say anything, so as long as you don’t, everything will be fine. No, everything’s not going to be fine.

Alex, I’ve been in this situation. I did not tell Trip when I cheated on him with Chanel and then Johnny went and blabbed about it and Trip was devastated. Yeah. But your brother was like possessed or something? Yes. Yes. And, and I don’t think that you are going to be taken over by the devil anytime soon, but this is Salem and Secrets have a way of getting out.

Okay. Well Allie, as you know, I used to be a player at one time. I used to crush a lot, and as such I found myself in, um, let’s just call them. Potentially dangerous, disastrous situations. I know how to keep my mouth shut and else do you think I should do lie to my girlfriend every day? Hmm. Ignore the guilt that’s already eating me alive.

Pray that every time I look her in the eyes, she doesn’t see the truth that I slept with you behind her back. Alex, I can’t do that. It’s not right and I won’t do it. I need to.

Hi. If you want to ruin your relationship, Alex, it’s the only way. What do you mean? It’s not the only way? Al you, you believe it’s the only way right now because you are in this like hole, the truth will set me free mode. But please let me give you a friendly reminder of how she reacted when she found my underwear in here the other morning.

It was innocent. You told her nothing happened between us. She didn’t believe. She freaked out, she left. So please just try and imagine how furious this girl would be if you tell her that we actually did sleep together.

You’re worried about trying to get her to move back in here. You might not ever see her again. Trust me. It is better for everybody involved if Chanel does not find out about what happened last night.

That was delicious. Mm, thank you baby. Uh, more coffee? Yes, please. Ah, so, ah, now, now finish telling me about how Sing Ali Sucked. Alex’s Lemon almost led you to almost do whatever you almost did. Can we just talk about something else like the weather, anything? Chanel fine. Okay, so Johnny and I, we came back here and we poured the wine and we started reminiscing about our time together in Italy.

And then one thing led to another and we almost kissed, oh Lord, gimme strength a. I said almost, Hey, Johnny, realize that it would be a mistake. Oh, woo. Well, once in his life, cast Nova showed some common sense. He’s a decent guy. Mama, huh? And he’s been a really good friend to me through all of this. Chanel, I know the past few months have been very difficult.

Oh, between your arrest and now this civil suit, it’s been a lot. And you know, I’m here for you. I will always be here for you. But Allie is your girlfriend and you need her support too. I wish I had it and I wish I could be there to support her too. Well, it’s time to stop wishing and start acting now. You need to move back in with Allie.

You’re kicking me out. No, no, of course not. My home will always be your home. But if you wanna fix things up with the woman that you love, you can’t do it by sitting around my kitchen or sitting at the bar with your ex-husband. You need to go handle your business,

okay? It’s just a business. Let’s not be rash here, Jack, just a business. That paper is a part of who we are to, to zander and gweneth means nothing, nothing. It’s just another way for them to take from our family. Well, you know what? I’m not gonna let them, it means too much. I know. You mean more, look, if they go to the cops, you could go to prison.

I don’t know. Maybe, maybe not. It might not come to that. I mean, you know, it it, it was an accident after all. I, I could get fined. Maybe they’ll put me on probation. They could suspend my license. I’m not willing, willing to risk it. I’ll do whatever it takes to protect you. I, I’m even handing over the paper to the daughter.

I disowned to the son of a bitch. I was foolish enough to befriend. Well, thank you Mattie, for pointing out all the numerous mistakes I’ve made with Xandra. I feel much better now. Pudding Pop. I didn’t mean to be discouraging, you know, I’m rooting for you in the X-Men. When I told him I loved him, I did call him a nor.

That’s good. It means you didn’t go full. Would you like me to do something unpleasant with these chocolates? Ah, don’t you dare. There’s only one trumpet covered. Cherry left. Well, I can’t eat anymore and I can’t wait anymore either. Patience is a virtue, my darling. Take some deep breaths. Push those negative thoughts away.

I’m not gonna let you give up. Who said anything about giving up? Sandra and I were gonna take over the newspaper. I’m hoping that all those long days and late nights are gonna bring us closer, you know, in every possible way. After all at work for my father and Jennifer. Isn’t that cute? Romantically idolizing your dad and your stepmom have ripping away their most prized possession

and.

Hello, boss Man. Come again. Oh, do you prefer Citizen Cook? I need to know what to call you in front of the copy Boys and Muck Rikers. When I show up at the Spectator to drop off my gossip column, you won’t be calling me. I didn’t say because we’re not taking the paper away from Jack.

Alex, can you help me do this class? Yes. Yes. You never could do this without my help. , there we go. Thank you. So Ms. Horton. if you’re not too busy saving lives at the moment. Mm-hmm. , would you be open to having a nice Valentine’s Day breakfast with me? Okay. Yeah. I mean, he is just as friends, I promise, right?

Yeah. You do. You do. You, you feel, you look a little guilty. You, you don’t feel guilty, do you? Eh? Why should I? I mean, Zander and I are getting a divorce because, because he’s a bad person.

Yeah, I, I know. Yeah, I know. Um, I think I just hoped he’d change. I know people like Xander, they don’t change. I mean, it may seem like they do, but in the end, he’s never gonna do the right thing.

Did he just say, we’re not taking the paper from Jack? That’s exactly what I said. What’s happens Ando? Why the change of heart? He’s ran into giant Dara. He’s distraught at the loss of his grandmother, and he blames me. Why? Or if he has poisoned Dr. Evans. Not you. Not that grandmother. You idiots. His other grandmother, Susan Banks.

He says, I’m incapable of feeling remorse. That’s not true. Isn. I agreed to kidnap a sweet, gentle woman for a payday. Now, here I am conspiring to extort the one true friend I ever had. Oh, please, Jack DeVere does not deserve your pity. He blackmailed control of the spectator away from my mother. If anything, by putting me at the mast head, you’re helping karma come back around.

Sorry, Leo. I have to find some other way to live out your dream of becoming the next gossip Girl, Jack can keep his bloody paper.

It’s just, I always imagined Abigail taking over the paper. Someday. Spectator was her birth. And now the idea of your other daughter taking over where Abigail so clearly belonged. As far as I’m concerned, I’ve only ever had one daughter whom I’ve lost.

I’ll be damned if I lose you too.

You okay Jean? Just missing my grandmother’s God, I’m so sorry. Do you need anything? No, I’m good. Well, uh, I am off to try and hash things out with Allie. Really? Yeah, mama gave me another talking too, and she said that she thinks that I need to put on my big girl pants and glow and work things out, and I think she’s right.

I really do. I love Allie and I just, I really wanna be with her. I know. Thank you for being the voice of reason last night. I, I don’t know what I would’ve done, but I know I wouldn’t have been able to come back from that if I had cheated on Allie. And I probably would’ve ruined our entire relationship.

Well, good luck. Thanks.

I would offer you a pastry, but I’m taking some time off work, , and, uh, we don’t have any, well, I’ll grab something on my way to work, but before I go, can you tell me what you decided to do about Chanel? Yeah. Um, obviously I’ve thought about it and I think you’re right. Really? I didn’t expect that. Well, I was pretty adamant about coming clean.

Um, As much as I hate lying, the consequence of telling the truth, I, I just can’t risk it. So I agree with you. Think it will be better for everyone if what happened last night stays between the two of us

Oh, days. Rex, the x. I thought you were off working for Doctors Without Brains. I’m in town to support my family. If you haven’t heard, my mother and aunt just died. Right? I’m sorry. Well, I suppose Sarah’s playing the role of the supportive ex-wife suggesting that you, you yacht for B. Actually breakfast was Rex’s idea.

We woke up starving after we spent the night together.

Great. Xander picks now to grow a conscience when we’re this close to becoming media moguls. Ah, damn that Johnny Damira. He’s ruined everyth. I don’t think Sanders 180 was about Johnny your season then. What do you think brought it on?

I think he realized he doesn’t wanna be in bed with someone like me, both literally and figuratively. Oh, come on now. That’s not it. Yes, of course. What he was saying about being incapable of remorse. That’s my influence. He sees me as this sort of evil temptress. He keeps luring him back to the dark side, encouraging him and enabling him to do all the things that he’s worked so hard to stop doing.

The things that make him hate himself the most.

I bring out the worst in him, unlike his precious Sarah Gwen. Gwen. Johnny laid a guilt trip on Xander. That’s a hole. He’s gonna shake it off. Oh, that. Talk about not wanting to be judged and just wanting to be accepted for who he is. I mean, that’s, that’s all that is. It’s just, it’s talk what Sandra really wants.

It’s to be the man that Sarah Horton would be proud to be with. That’s why he killed our plan.

Well, that’s not funny. Who’s laughing? Ah, I get it. You’re still tick D with Gwen and this is your LA way of getting back at me. But Sarah, this is beneath you. Actually, I was beneath her the first time. The second and third time. Oh, okay. In the shower. Yeah. That was incredible. Don’t even think about it.

You know what I actually think of Chris Knott’s Not gonna do it. I really did work up quite the appetite. Do you wanna go to the pup and get something a little more substantial? Sounds like a plan. See bud.

I can’t believe my career as a columnist is over before it even began. ZK

Z Everything. All right, never better. Are you ready Wayne? For what? To head to the Horton house. We have a newspaper to acquire, but I thought, ah, screw that. Nice guys finished last.

Well what are you waiting for? Go, go, go, go, go.

Yes. It is a strapping hunks prerogatives to change his mind.

Where’d you go? Up to the attic? I wanted to see if Graham had saved this. My first spectator byline.

I remember this story about a horse and my plucky cub reporter, Ms. H. Given the green light by my impossible to please editor Mr. De.

What a team Jack are you sure you’re ready to let the paper go?

Oh, hey, miss. Well, if it is at one half of the Salem Wonder Twins, the half that needs to steer clear of my daughter,

well, I should probably get going. Valentine’s Day is huge for Titan’s online publications. Any minute now Uncle Vic’s gonna be blowing up my phone asking about Adam impressions. Okay, well, um, have a good day and uh, thank you. For everything. I got you.

Allie. It’s me. I can’t find my keys. Oh my God. It’s Chanel. I know they’re in here somewhere.

So how did it feel? How did what feel giving Xander a taste of his own medicine?

It felt good, actually. , it felt really good

Seems we have company. Well, Jennifer didn’t know you were in town. Lovely to see you as always. Cut the crap. Gwen. I know what you’re here now. Take it. Jack filled you in on our proposal. If I proposal, you mean your plan to extort our paper from us then? Yes. Well, since we are skipping the pleasantries, let’s get right to it, shall we?

Dad, will you be handing over the spectator or will your wife be spending Valentine’s Day lock up?

Look, Ms. Price, nothing happened between Chanel and me. I promise. I know she. But there’s obviously unfinished business between you two, and I’m just afraid if you keep having these close encounters, my daughter and your sister are going to be in for a world of hurt. All right. Look, with all due respect, if I was you, I’d be more concerned about all the time Allie’s spending with Alex Kiya is okay.

That guy’s the problem, not me.

Allie, I know you’re in there. I saw your car outside. Are you a.

Open up. This cannot be happening. Baby shall go away. Oh, here they are.

First up, we have Mr. Turco who’s accused of attempted robbery. Your Honor, the security camera footage clearly places the defendant at the scene of the crime. So granny footage, that could be either my client or Bigfoot . Well, we don’t even need the camera footage because we have an eyewitness. Oh, sorry.

Your Honor, the, the witness could have seen anyone. My client has an undeniable every man look, he could be mistaken for anyone in this.

Council. Is your defense just finding people who look like your client? What do they Oh yes, my God. They do. Oh my. What are you doing here? I got caught robbing this lady’s store, . He’s joking. The only thing my client is guilty of is possession of a razor sharp wit . The defendant just confessed. Can we have the stenographer read that back?

Oh, did you guys start ? Your honor, I think we can wrap this up pretty quickly now. The prosecution is going to argue that the evidence is incontrovertible, and I will refute it point by point, successfully showing that it’s inadmissible. The bailiff is gonna drop her keys, , which, and since it is my client’s first offense, you’re obviously going to rule guilty

Damn, fine. Fine, fine. Well, you gotta. Key thing was pretty good, , especially the second time.

I don’t understand this new judge work is over. Why does she want us to stick? Well, maybe she got us a present. Maybe we can wear it. Oh, or eat it. Maybe we can wear it then Eat it. Chocolate jacket. . You know, if I were you, I get used to this.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What secrets do you hold? Golden. There’s only one way to find out through that. Through that.

What the hell?

What were you and Joey talking about? He asked You were coming out with me, didn’t he? What? No. Okay. Yes, that’s exactly what he did. But don’t be mad at your brother. He just sees how much you’re hurting over what happened with your mom. And he didn’t want you to be alone. Yeah. Yeah. Except that’s not why he called you.

What do you mean? I mean that he wants us to spend some time together cuz he wants us to be a couple.

Did you want the strawberry shortcake ode or the Flowerless chocolate cake? Sounds lovely. Which one? Whatever you want. I want both. Obviously

I will call room service. You decide which cast of housewives you wanna watch. I was feeling Beverly Hills, but if you’re more in a New York state of mind, whatever. Stop it. Quinny. What am I doing? You’re doing nothing. That’s the point. We are supposed to be having a fun night of sugar, gossip, trashy tv, and you are lying there like a sad sack waiting for your Scottish beef cake to call.

I am not. Why hasn’t he phoned me yet?

Excuse me, Jack Wave.

Is this it? I don’t understand the question. Brent told me about the ultimatum you gave him. Sell me out or lose you forever. So, so should I assume that you and I were not me?

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

Were we ever really mates, Sandra, I’d like to think we were. I. Friendship goes both ways. It’s not just one person cleaning up another one’s messes. Now I screwed up. You didn’t screw up. You didn’t screw up. You kidnapped Susan and Bonnie. You’re just showing your true colors. I was desperate. I was trying to save my marriage.

And when they even made the don’t, don’t, don’t say that. Don’t gimme another excuse. You not only abducted those two women, you used my daughter to cover up your crimes, never intended to pull greed into that, but you did. You knew that Gwen’s still in love with you, and you took advantage of her feelings.

She was trying to better herself, trying to turn her life around, and you just dragged her down into your muck. I am truly sorry. I bet you are. But what you did was unforgivable. I’ve done bad things before. Jack, worse than this, but now you know.

The man I called my friend and learned and realized the difference between right and wrong. I watched you grow a conscience, and yet when it gets desperate, you’re aver to the same. Selfish losing, he’d always been. Turn you back on me. You want Jack? Please? Give quiet another chance.

Get outta bed. What the hell? I’ll command you to get out of bed. You command me Uhhuh. Go out at a girl now gimme your phone. No. What if he texts me? I don’t care. Just be careful of that. My God. You be careful. You are the one who is slipping into dangerous territory. My friend. What are you talking about? I am talking about you doing the big nasty.

With the big nasty. Now that you’ve slept with him, you have all these expectations. It’s a good way to get. We don’t even know what Zander’s thinking. He’s not thinking. He never does. Leaving you to stew in your own juices. Believe me, I’ve been there when we’re not talking about me. Look, I know that you’re playing the long game here.

Is that supposed to be some quip about, about Zander’s manhood? No, I was being sincere. Although when we were living in the same house, I did get a peek or two,

Matt. Oh, right. Uh, that’s neither here nor there. My point is for tonight, just let it go. Be in the moment and have some fun with your old girlfriend, Leo. Yeah, you’re right. Why am I mooning over Zander when obviously his sun rises in sets with s h.

Re Hi. Hi. I’m so sorry about your mom. Thank you. It all through be Kayla and Marlena too. I wish we could have done more. So do I. So why are you here? I’m here to deliver this to. You wrote Victor a letter? No, not me, my brother. You brother. You don’t mean it’s a letter from Philip

Tequila. Oh, this is funny to. I walk in here and I find your mouth on this boy, and you think it’s funny. Okay. My mouth was on the lemon, which just happened to be in Alex’s mouth. Right, right. I know how it looked like. I’m talking to my girlfriend. Okay. I understand it’s not, but it’s not like we were, we’re we were kissing.

Right? Like that. Hey Alex, maybe just keep quiet for a minute. I’m just trying to help you. Wanna help. Then maybe you should check yourself and you should start by checking to make sure you have your underwear. Um, Allie told me how you found my boxes in your apartment, but I’m telling you E no, I swear to you it is innocent.

Yeah, but there’s nothing innocent about what I just walked in on. Okay. You’re making way too big. Who am I? Am I then why does it seem like every time I turn around I find you two together? Oh. Oh. Like how every time I turn around I find you with Johnny.

So this is Joey playing matchmaker. Yep. Why is he trying to push us together? Uh, he’s seeing someone now and so I guess he figured at least one of us should win win. Like I’m some video games. Yeah. I’m sorry. Came out wrong. Um, what I meant to say was that, uh, I like you Mindy, for real, but I know that you’re dating giant Damara and I’m not looking to take someone else’s girl.

So,

Alex, why don’t, uh, why don’t you and I give these two little time alone, huh? No, no, it’s fine. I’m fine if everybody hears this because Chanel is the one who lied to me. How did I lie? You said that you were spending time at your mother’s, and yet here you are with my very own twin brother. Okay. All right.

We came to get a drink. All right. Seems like you and Alex are way ahead of us on that front. How, how many have you had, by the way? Uh, I mean,

They’re gonna, they’re gonna, they’re gonna run outta grass. Yeah. I, I’m glad this is amusing to you. It looks like I got my answer. Oh my God. Whatever you the drinking police, because if you are, you’re gonna have to arrest yourself. What does that, what does that even mean? It means why aren’t you here with Wendy instead of my girlfriend?

Phillip is in a mental hospital. Mm-hmm. . Yeah. He faked his own death and then tried to frame Brady for his murder. I clearly he needed help. Uh, did Brady and Chloe know he’s alive? No. No. I haven’t had a chance to tell him yet, but I will until then. Can you do me a favor? Can you just keep. Quiet. I know it’s not cool to ask you to keep secrets from your husband, but like you mean from, from Xander?

Yeah. Obviously. You mean Xander? Um, yeah. You don’t have to worry. Xander isn’t my husband anymore.

Look at me. No worry. That loser talking here. Did you just call me a lose? No, you’re not a loser. Quite the opposite. Gwe, you won, did I? Yes. Xander is no longer married to Sarah and with whom did he sleep last night? Me. What was that? I can’t hear you. Me. He slept with me. Yes, he did. And he’s a better man for it.

Then. Why hasn’t he fun me yet? I don’t know. Maybe he’s busy. Busy. I mean, what’s he doing? It’s not like he’s got a job. Still man, with a body like that, he’s gotta work out what, six, seven hours a day. Maybe they’ll call you in between his next set of squad AKs, maybe. But like you said, I, I fought for him.

You know, is it wrong that I want him to fight for me too?

I’m aware of that. You can’t just cut her out of your life. I can’t debate this. Last cuz you know you don’t have any ground to stand on. Gwen’s hurting Jack. Don’t punish her for something I did. You, you mean the world to her. She’s moving on and so am I just like that. What? Because she, she disappointed you Because I can’t have this in my life anymore.

Gwen is a threat to me and my family. That’s the kind of man you want to be, the kind that disowns his daughter because she didn’t live up to his standards. You couldn’t understand why. I think I understand quite. . That’s how Victor treated me. Everything was conditional. Tow the line or you’re out. Oh, IRA was just a little responsibility.

Oh, that’s a bunch of crap. And you know it. This was never just about Gwen. The truth is Gwen was not and was never going to be. Abigail, please. This olden girl do not bring Abigail into this. She’s always been in this, hasn’t she? I mean, Gwen’s always lived in her shadow. Sure. She tried to better herself to fix the things that were broken in her childhood.

She tried to change herself to make you happy, to make you proud. Did she? Yes. She twisted herself into for you because she needed your love jack. But instead, what did she. Your judgment. You tried to make a turn on me and when she didn’t, you turned on her. She made her choice and I made mine the hell with that.

Gwen got tired of trying to prove herself to you, Matt. She couldn’t have a father that loves her unconditionally. Why have a father at all? You talk a lot about the kind of man I am. What kind of man are you? I think I’m fine with us not being mace anymore. I don’t want to be friends with someone like you.

Johnny and I have started dating, or at least we’re trying to, meaning what? Nothing. I thought you could said we’d be honest with each. Meaning we were supposed to go to the movies tonight. We Joey called. So you skipped on your date for me. There’ll be other dates. Having a nice time with you. No. No. Uhuh.

No. I’m not being someone else’s. Pity date. Pity date. Yeah. Is that a thing? No. Call him What? Call Johnny right now. He remember this whole time to catch the.

Wow. Forgot how fun it is. Arguing with you when you’re drunk. Why are you trying to change the subject? What are you afraid of? The truth. The truth. The truth is you’re making a big deal outta me. Being here with Chanel when really it’s nothing. Oh, it’s nothing. Yes. Look, I was supposed to go out with Wendy tonight.

She had to go help a friend. Oh, same thing with me and Allie. Two friends being there for each other. Oh, hold on, hold on. So Wendy cancels on you and, and what? You just call up Chanel as you’re Fillin date. It’s not a date. No, no, it is. And I, I can see you guys are getting two drinks and you’re reminiscing about when you were married and you’re like, oh, remember our really romantic Italian.

So stop. Stop. At Horton. This isn’t about me and Johnny. It always, always about you and Johnny. No, you’re just using this as an excuse so that you can be with Alex. I don’t need an excuse. We have fun together. Is there a problem with that valley? Why don’t you just come home with me and then you can sober up and we can talk about this later.

We can set things straight. straight. That’s an interesting choice of words. Important. Maybe I don’t want a sober duck. I’m having too much fun. I can see that. No, you don’t get to judge me. You walked out and honestly, you’re really killing my buzz right now. I’m so sorry about that. Yeah, so unless you two buzz killers, wanna join us for a shot?

Hard pass. Come on. Can we get a drink somewhere else? Sure.

You warned me about Xander, in fairness. Of course everyone did. No, I’m actually sorry that he hurt you like that. Look, I never thought he was wordy of a woman of your caliber, although I’m not really one to judge now, am I ? No. ? I suppose not. I was a really terrible partner to you. On the other hand, you never kidnapped anyone as long as far as I know.

No . No. It’s just the cheating. Ah, yes. It’s just. But I did forgive you. You did. It meant the world to me, even though I didn’t deserve it. Holding grudges can just ruin your life. So does that mean. There’s a chance you might forgive Xander as well.

Oh good. Yeah, just carry on texting somebody else. Not like I’m having an existential crisis over here. Didn’t you just tell me that Xander stood up for you when he ran into Sarah? He did. Once she found out you guys had slept together and she was really letting you have it. It’s a critical bitch. I’ll tell you.

He really shut her down though. See? Yeah, but Matty, who we kidding? I mean, that’s all fleeting. What is Zander choosing me in the moment? It’s all part of the dance. He’s willing to take me into bed, but he’ll never fully be willing to take me in his heart. First of all, that is very poetic. But you don’t know that.

Oh, I do know that. His heart still belongs with Sarah Horton. You don’t know unless you tried. Yes, I have tried for years and look where it’s landed me. It’s better to have loved and lost something. Something Shakespeare said that actually Tenson said that, but I appreciate your reference. Really? Huh? And I was a theater queen in high school.

I guess I was too distracted trying to turn all the boys who didn’t know they were gay. Come here, it’s gonna be okay.

Who suck? I don’t know. Who could it be? Who could it be?

Is the question, can I forgive Xander, or is it, can I forgive him enough to be with him again? I guess both. I mean, , we signed divorce papers. Does that answer it? So it’s officially over. The papers are filed with the courts. So as far as I’m concerned, I’m no longer married. Shit, I’m surprised Zana gave up so easily.

Oh yes. Not only did he give up easily, he went straight back to sleeping with Gwen Resk.

Just had the misfortune of bumpy into your father while he was a stride’s high horse. Oh, he ran into Jack Told him what I thought of the ultimatum he gave you didn’t need to do that. Yes, I did. Man. There’s nothing, a loyalty the way sits in judgment of me, but more, I just can’t stand the way he treats you his own daughter.

Yeah. Well, less him down, haven’t I? Again and again. Screw that. I mean, you’ve done your best and well. He disowns you because you stood up for someone you care. He took away your, your job, your family, your home. You’ve lost everything. Well, maybe not everything. Just wish there was something I could do about it.

There is something you can do. Excuse me. Neither of you has to take this lying down, although if you did wanna lie down together, that is totally cool with. In fact, just thinking about it is getting me unbothered. Anyway, I know exactly how you can put Jack DeVere in his place.

Sorry you’re going through this. Me too. I really want things to be okay with me and Allie, but your sister is so stuff irrational, frustrating. Keep going. She gets it from her mom. I’ve heard stories about Sammy Barbie. I love her. I love her to death, but sometimes she’s just hard to have a relationship with.

You know who? Your mom or your sister? Well, neither of ’em ever wants to admit when they’re wrong, but what Ali’s doing right now, pushing you away? It’s the biggest mistake she’s ever made. Come on.

Why aren’t you chasing after Chanel? I’m good. Are you sure? I promise you I’ll not be offended. Hey, like I said to her, I’ve got nothing enough to say.

Johnny loves movie. He’s probably already sitting in a theater with his giant popcorn. You think he went by himself? You said he was going to, he was super excited to see this worm movie. You only playing one night. Apparently. Text him. He probably already has this fun on airplane though. Stop making excuses and just text the guy.

Okay, can we, uh, not talk about my sister anymore? Gladly. Let’s get that drink.

Hey. Hi. How’s it going guys? I didn’t know this was where you were going to the. Yeah, well, I, I changed my plans after you bow out, so I can see that. Would you mind if we talked for a minute? Sure. Of course.

Hey, uh, everything okay? You tell me. I don’t understand. We were supposed to be on a date and you said you couldn’t. What is it? The minute I get pulled away to help a friend? You call Chanel as a backup. You too. Me? Me too. What? That’s just your, uh, thought. You’re not the first person to accuse me of this tonight.

Let me guess your sister. Yeah. Yeah. We ran into her and Alex at another. We’re both pretty drunk and pretty cozy. Look, I’m just trying to be a good friend. Is Chanel the same way you are for Tripp, but is it really the same? What’s that mean? Trip and I weren’t married. Okay. Fair. All right. I I Okay that.

Yeah. It probably looks sketchy. Okay. But I, I, look, I just, I saw Chanel, I invited her to the movie only. She doesn’t like thrillers. We decided to get a drink instead. And, and Wendy, I wanted to go with you, but clearly Trip needed you more. No, I’m actually okay. I mean, if you guys want to rest the movie, Chanel and I can hang out.

See, fuck. Everything’s working out. Actually, I don’t think it is. What do you mean? I mean, yeah, we, we might miss the trailers, but that’s fine. I’m not talking about the movie. I’m talking about us seeing each other. What do you mean? Do I have to say it? There’s still something going on between you and your ex.

Okay. I told you. We are just friends. This is not the way it looks to me. It looks complicated and messy and full of drama. I don’t need, Wendy, you and I both agreed we, we have an opportunity here to build something really special. Can’t say. I’m feeling that right now.

I like you, Johnny. I don’t think we have a chance to build anything as long as whatever’s between you and Chanel is lingering. That’s it. You just wanna break it off. I don’t wanna hurt you. But even more than that, I don’t wanna get hurt. So I’ll see you around, okay.

What the hell are you doing here with me? Tequila shooter. Do you know what I mean? Why aren’t you chasing after Chanel? Why aren’t you chasing after Stephanie? Because she doesn’t want to be with me because I screwed up royally. But you and Chanel have so much love for each other. Elliot, I think you’re gonna have to swallow your pride on this one.

Why would I swallow my pride? Because she already made the offer some offer. The only thing I feel like squalling more of is these tequila shots. So you gonna leave me hanging or what?

Okay. Okay. So how do we get back at somebody like Jack Deveau when he is acting all holier than them? No guesses anyone. Okay. Just tell us. You throw his own sins back in his face. More sins. Oh, correct me if I’m wrong, Gwenny, but it wasn’t too long ago that Jack’s beloved wife Jennifer ran you down with her car and left you in the street to die.

We dunno that for sure. Do we actually, we do. You got confirmation that Jennifer was driving the car? I did. After which you took the high road, protected her for your father’s sake. Well, I’m here to say it is not too late to reverse course and make that sanctimonious bastard pay.

I am so sorry for jumping all this on you. What? No, no, no, no. Don’t be. Yeah. I’m sitting here talking about Xander and you’ve lost your mother. I won’t say anything about Philip. You have my word. Thank you. Really. Look, we’ve, we’ve been through a lot, but I’d like to think that we’re still friends. We are must have really hurt to see Xander with that woman, given all that she did to hurt.

Yeah. Honestly, I haven’t had time to process it, you know? Um, I ran into him and Gwen and they made it very clear that they were sleeping together and then I had to go back to work. So Nice. You have always been like that. I mean, no matter what was going on in your life, and you could just always be there for your patie.

It helps having a distraction. No, no, no. It does. It does. But I don’t need to tell you that, that keeping that anger and that that pain inside, it’s not good for you. It’s not healthy. You gotta let it out. You know what I mean? And

I think I have a pretty damn good idea to help you do that.

I’m sorry if I messed things up with you and Johnny. Uh, but honestly it’s Joey’s fault for trying to play matchmaker. Oh, this is nothing to do with Joey or you, Bonnie and I are just wrong place, wrong time. He seems a little fused. Yeah, that’s a good word for it. I’m sorry. Don’t feed. It is what it is. It is what it is.

Well, anyway, you showed up here because you thought I was hurting and now I get to be here for you.

So, but I totally screw up what you have going on with Wendy. Ah, nah. Just, uh, one big misunderstanding. I’ll fix it tomorrow somehow. Thank you, . No way. What. Uh, it’s nothing. It’s just this is the, uh, this is the same bottle of wine that we drank that night on the beach in Italy, on the Amul coast. Did you, uh, did you tell your mom about it?

I don’t think so. Oh, oh, no. What. . We’re doing exactly what my sister accused us of doing right now. You know, reminiscing about our romantic times in Italy. Well, I don’t care because when I drink this wine, I can just feel the breeze and Pieter. Raine. Yeah. Okay. Okay, now you’re laying in on a bit thick. Do you remember when we went to go see the sunrise or we fell asleep at four in the morning?

And woke up with our faces in the sand and those guys, they were taking out the fishing boats and singing in Italian. Yeah, it was much better than my sorry attempt at karaoke. You did your thing and I appreciate it. She wanted to make you smile. You always make me smile.

Oh, okay. Alright. All right. All right. Yeah, all we got this

home. Sweet home, sweet home. Sweet home. Sweet home. Oh, and by the way, My honey Penny is staying with his babysitter at her place because she has the five year old who loves him, and she asked me if he could sleep over. Isn’t she swell? Are you sure you’re okay? Do I look like I’m in pain right now? No. No, you don’t.

But. My gut tells me that tomorrow morning’s gonna be a much different story. Oh, well you only live once. That’s what I say. Mm. Okay. Come on.

Thank you for tonight. You’re buying drinks next time. No, I mean, thank you for being so. Oh, nice. Yeah, that’s me. All right. You think it’s cool if I crash on the couch in the office again? I promise you I will keep my underwear on my body this time. Yeah, you could crash in the office. Thank you. Are you kidding?

Crash crashing my bed.

Underwear optional.

Nice. All right. Again. All right. Now tell me how you’re feeling. I’m feeling pissed off. Okay, good, good. I can’t believe Andrew slept with a bitch. He promise he would never break the law again, and I was stupid enough to believe it. Okay. Are you feeling feel better? No, not really. Okay. I hate you. I hate you.

Zander. I hate you for making me book. Okay. Okay. Okay, okay, okay. Okay. It’s just this is a little bit more intense than I expected you. Okay. I mean, did it, did it work?

My key still works. Guessing you want it back. I do. Isn’t that all? There’s another reason I’m here. It’s about the spectator, Gwen. If you’re here to ask for your job back, you’re not here about her job,

we’re here to,

who was that?

Why shouldn’t I? You still want me right now? Of course I do. But you’re upset. Yeah. And you help me get out some of that anger. No. I need to get out the rest, but that’s not gonna happen from getting a pillow. Sarah, you said that you never got over me. Another chance.

You wanna stand around talking or do you wanna take me up to my room?

It’s been a long day and I think I’ve made it clear. I have nothing more to say to either of you. Oh, you don’t have to say anything. You can just listen. You are gonna sign over Ownership of the spectator to. And your daughter, and why the hell would I do that? Because if you don’t Daddy dearest. I’m going to send Jennifer to prison for running me over.

Dear readers, due to these spectators imminent change in owner. Your old friend, lady Whistleblower will finally be able to bring you the news you really care about. Check back in on this face soon to have your bassist appetites indulged. No gossip is too Deb botched. No one in Salem will be spared. So be ready for your daily dish of betrayal and of course to find out the latest on who.

Is sleeping. With whom?

Ah, I think I should probably go. I’m the one leaning in this time, Johnny. It’s okay. You shouldn’t, I know. We should look, uh, as. As I am with my sister right now, I, I don’t wanna do this to her. I don’t think you do either.

I, I think you’re right. I have to be loyal to Allie even if she doesn’t.

It wouldn’t be the first time he stayed in my bed and this time there’d be more room. I don’t think that’s a very good idea. Ellie. Come on. Come on. Stephanie is sleeping with Chad and Chanel is probably sleeping with my brother right now. And a few weeks ago he said that I was hot. One of the hottest women you’ve ever been with.

So are you lying?

Not even a little bit, prove.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, you’re definitely in good hands. Hey, you too. And keep me updated. Okay, thanks. Thought I saw you through the window, . Hey. Yeah, no, I just was. Calling the Seattle Hospital Head Consult. Nice. Yeah, I was just on my way to dad’s, but I saw you and thought, why not have a beer with my bro first? Ah, well, great minds indeed.

Uh, you haven’t been here working all day, have you? No, no, no, no. I, I went to see my mom earlier and, uh, that does not have been pretty much hanging out with Wendy Shin.

This is a surprise. What’s going on? Well, I know it’s last minute, but the Revival Theater is playing a great movie tonight. Wanna come with me?

Thanks for coming. Yeah.

So, um, I got your text. Is everything okay? Yeah. Sorry, I didn’t, um, I didn’t mean to alarm you. Uh, and I promise you the next time I text you, it’ll be to set up a proper date. . So why did you ask me to come over? Oh, um, I just wanted to tell you in person that, uh, I ran into Alex and he knows that I spent the night with.

Missing something. Ah, thank you for bringing us by. Got your text about finding them. Yeah. You know who else found them? Chanel. And she threw a freaking fit.

Oh, and she’s here . Oh, well what is all this ? Oh, elaborate mirror romantic table set for two. Wow. Mr. Abraham Carver, you must be looking to get a lucky tonight. Oh, now you know, I use up all my luck the day you entered my life. Oh, whom? I love . Oh. But seriously, what have you been? Well, you know, you, uh, you told me that Chanel was going home to make up with Allie.

Mm-hmm. and. I said, well, I made an executive decision. Oh, well, just what did my handsome executive decide? That you should be wh and dine like the queen. You are . And since we have the place all to ourselves, . Oh yeah. Oh, okay. Oh, remember, your cooking smells amazing. I am famished.

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

Oof. Oh, hey darling. I didn’t realize you were here. I was napping. Um, you know, I am hungry. But it looks like you were planning a dinner for just the two of yous. Well, I, it’s, it’s okay. We’re, we’re happy to have you join us. It’s just that your mom told me that you and you and Ali had gotten back together.

Yeah, I was hoping that would be the case. I did what you said. I went over there and I put aside how hurt I was, and I tried to tell her how sorry I was and, and what happened? Well, I realized she had a hell of a lot more to be sorry for than I did.

When Chanel saw those, she assumed the worst. The worst, huh? Really? Well, I’ll have you know that my Rotten tomato score is very high, and if I remember correctly, you and Chanel were among those who gave me rave reviews. Yeah. Well, it’s about a tank. If you keep making little jokes about my love life. Sorry.

Hey, I’m sorry. This is so stupid. And as much as I try and tell Chanel that nothing happened and that you spent the night in the office, I I, I might as well have been speaking another language. Wait, so all this over my missing underwear. Okay. You know what? I’ll fix this. I’ll fix it. I’m gonna call Chanel right now and I’m going to explain to her how I sleep in the nude, which happens to be true.

Yeah, I already tried that didn’t work.

Thanks for the heads up. But, um, it wasn’t necessary. I was actually gonna text you, but you beat me. . You saw Alex too? Yeah, uh, at Titan when I went to go see Sonny, he told me he knew about us. He wasn’t a jerk to you though, was he? No, it wasn’t like that. Chad, I don’t know if you noticed the flowers at my dad’s place this morning.

I did. They were from Alex, huh? Okay. He, he came by. Dropped them off last night along with an apology note that he wrote me. The door was open and he saw us together, so he just left it all behind. I wasn’t gonna read the note, I just threw it away. But then I was curious, so I fished it out of the trash and it was really genuine.

He, he knew how badly he messed up. He owned up to all of his mistakes. He said he never meant to hurt me, and so I told, That I appreciated him saying all of that. Well, good. I mean, it sounds like you were able to hopefully get some closure.

It was closure, right? Yeah, it was because I told him that he and I would not be getting back together because you. Chad are the one I wanna be with.

Wendy Shin. You don’t waste any time, do you? ? Oh, you think Wendy and I? No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, see, I, I came back to Salem for your mom’s funeral and then things have been pretty rough with my mom lately. And Wendy’s been a, a really good listener and a good friend besides, she’s already sort of seen someone.

Anyway, Johnny Damira sort of.

Something wrong. Well, I thought we said you were going to wait. What was everything that’s going on with your family and Afu was going on with mine. Ah, we did say that, didn’t we? We agreed it was a good idea, Tawny. I know we did, but I couldn’t help myself when I saw the movie Marqui. Look, this is such a classic thriller and it’s playing for one night only.

All right, look, I know I should have called and asked first, but I You were being impulsive. I get that. It’s just that we talked about waiting just yesterday, so this feels kind of sudden. No. Is that what this is about? How sudden it is? Or is this about what happened with Chanel?

So Johnny Dara is trying to play both sides of the fence. Huh? He wants Wendy and Chanel Dupree. Hey, well that’s not at all what I said. No. I said that Wendy told me that Johnny almost kissed Chanel, excuse me, vulnerable place. You know his grandmother was dying. Something that we both can relate. Sure Ming on Your Ex is a well-known remedy for stress and grief, but in my book, that forfeits his right to go after Wendy.

Oh, well, I’m sure she’ll be thrilled to know that you made the decision for her. All I’m saying is Wendy has options and yeah, Johnny’s cool, but he’s not a hot shot doctor like my brother. Look, I already told you. All right. She and Johnny are playing her step things up soon. As soon as not now. All right.

Wendy’s available and Johnny’s already given her enough reasons to doubt him, so stop making excuses no more. If you want, Wendy. I say go for it.

Is that why you’re hesitating? Cause it still bugs you that I almost kissed Chanel. It’s not like I’ve forgotten about her. Look, Wendy, we’ve talked through all this. Yeah, I know, but, but, but. What allie’s filling your head with doubts. She is, isn’t she? You know what, we’re gonna fix this right now. Chanel, will you come out here and talk to Wendy, Johnny?

No. You know what? We are going to fix this. Chanel’s gonna come out. She’s gonna tell you there’s nothing going on between us and we can move on from this. Chanel Johnny, stop. Chanel’s not here. She moved out.

Chanel, you and Ellie agreed to take a break and then you walked out. It shouldn’t matter what happened between then and when you went back to apologize. Now go back there and make things right. Make things right. How? By apologizing again, begging her to take me back groveling. Did I say you had to beg or grovel?

No. Explain to my daughter what I meant. Come on back, me up here. Well, your mother just wants you to be happy. That’s all. and, and we’ve both seen how, how happy Ali makes you. The point is, darling, sometimes you have to be humble and go the extra mile, not by groveling day gang, just by reassuring the person that you love, that they mean more to you than anyone else in the world.

Yeah, I get your point. Yeah. I’ll, I’ll go with the extra mile and I’ll just try to forget all about. Sleeping with Alex, Kiki.

I hope we can put this Alex stuff behind us. Just concentrate on us. Yeah, that sounds good to me.

Damn kids are sleeping, right? We’re alone. Actually, no, they are not sleeping. I told you I heard a voice. What?

Do you need tell us, Stephanie was coming over. What are we doing? What? What are we we’re doing nothing. It’s, you guys are both going back to bed, but nothing. It’s late, but we wanna hang out with Stephanie. You know what, I’ll, I’ll make you guys a deal. How about I read you something from your favorite book and then you have to listen to your dad in post sleepy time.

Deal great. Then why ain’t go pick out a book?

I will take the L on this one. If I had spent a few more minutes hunting from my underwear this morning instead of going commando. You and Chanel would be back at your place right now having magical makeup sex. Has anyone ever told you you have a one track mind? Well, it’s just kind of hard not to dwell on the possibilities, you know?

I mean, not everybody would be like us and not end up in bed together. We deserve like medals of honor for having that kind of restraint. Seriously, Allie, seriously, is that all we got is an angry ex-girlfriend on a couple world class hangovers. Yeah. You weren’t looking too good when I came in. Are you still nursing your.

No, the only hangover I’m nursing right now is at rejection one. You think things were bad on the Stephanie front last night? It ain’t hurt nothing yet. No. What happened? Ah, it’s better if I don’t talk about it, to be honest. If I gotta relive those feelings again, I’m, I’m gonna need something to wash it down with,

unless, of course you have any interest in washing down, bitter, angry, heartbroken feelings together. I actually have a lot of interest in doing that, although it sounds like we may be giving ourselves another hangover. True. But it’s not like anybody’s gonna have to take care of us. Stephanie’s definitely not gonna give a damn.

I’m sure they’re not gonna be seeing her while I am. Nursing said hangover. Mm-hmm. . And it doesn’t really seem like Chanel’s gonna care all that much either. Now, she wouldn’t even know considering we do not live together anymore. So then why are we still here? He’s me. Let’s go nurse that hangover. Ya

Chanel baby. Um, there could be a million reasons why that boy left his underwear behind a million. Really? Give me one. Maybe he sleeps in the buff. Yeah, that’s what Allie said, that supposedly he forgot them or misplaced them when he slept in the office. Well, you know, it makes sense to. I mean, it seems for Alex Caras that would apparently be on brand.

Absolutely. The way I see it. Those two got overserved at the bar, slept separately, and then he stumbled out of the place without his underwear. Okay. Can, can we just change the subject please? Sure, sure. So, well, you know, maybe we should eat before the food gets cold. Oh, you were obviously planning a romantic dinner for two, and now it’s for three.

Come on, baby. Oh, no, no, no, no. I am not going to ruin your evening. Oh, have fun. Hi, Chanel. Chanel. Oh, Abraham. Poor girl. I mean, she’s, she’s really going through it, huh? Oh, and how. You know what I think, I think Mars must be in retrograde. You know, I’ve heard of Mercury being in retrograde, but Mars, oh, Mars is much worse.

Relationships go on the rocks except for ours, of course. Oh. Of course , but seriously, seriously. Oh, you know, and if there were already existing problems, you know, like jealousy and misunderstandings, well then they tend to just multiply like crazy

trip. There’s no rule that says you have to step aside just because damara is in the mix. All right. You’re just as legitimate choice for Wendy as he is better if you ask me. Okay. I spent hours with her today. And if she was interested, I think I might know, maybe you need to open your eyes. I mean, this wouldn’t be the first time that you’ve been clueless about a woman’s feelings for you.

Okay. I am going to get us a round of beers and, uh, let’s talk about anything else but Wendy and me when I get back. Okay? Sure. No problem.

Ah. Why is this getting so out of control? I mean, Chanel and I didn’t even do anything, but you two have history, Johnny. Yeah, history that implies past tense. I’m trying to be here with you now in the present. Look, I know that we agreed that we’re not gonna go on any dates, but hey, it’s just a movie. Zero pressure.

Scott’s Honor.

Maybe I am being overly cautious. It shouldn’t be a problem with me in certain regards anyway. And it is just a movie like you said. So let’s a yes. Sure. Yes. Okay. Tossum, if we leave now we have time to catch a bite. Oh, hold on. I should take this. Joey. Hi. I was gonna call you about your mom. I’m so sorry.

It’s just so sad and awful. Yeah, it is. But right now it’s trip. I’m worried about, he’s kind of in a bad way about his mom. I heard Trip talked to me about how hard it’s been, right? Yeah. He said having you as a soundboard helps so much. I’m with him at the Brady Pub right now, but I’ve gotta go meet up with my dad regarding my mom’s funeral arrangements.

Would you mind, um, coming by and keeping ’em company for a while? Oh, you want me to come to the pub now? Yeah, if you don’t mind. No, no, no, no. I wouldn’t mind. Uh, I’ll be there as soon as I can. Thank you. That’s great. See you soon.

Something wrong. Um, kinda this trip’s been going through something and I’ve been sort of an ear for him so we can vent. So, so Joey just asked me if I could go to the pub and hang with him for a while with trip mean like, I can’t it. Wait, I don’t think so. I mean, it must be pretty urgent for Joey to have called me.

You know everything that’s going on with Tripp’s mom. Yeah, sure I do. She killed my grandmother. Maybe I could choose some comfort tonight too. Except our plan wasn’t for me to give you comfort, Johnny. We were going to watch a horror movie. Remember. Fine. You’re right. You’re right. And you’re being a good friend, which I respect.

So Go ahead. He’s for understanding. We’ll go to a movie another time. Sure. I’ll uh, see you later.

What happened to those beers? Dad called right before I got them and I, I think we should go be with him. Like, do you mean now? Yeah. He, it sounded like he could really use the company and maybe some help with the funeral arrangements. Oh. Um, yeah. Can you gimme a sec? I have to use the restroom. Yeah, yeah.

Okay. Okay. I’ll be right back. Don’t go anywhere. Okay. Alright.

So that the boy thought to himself why he looks just like my old bunny that was lost when I had Scarlet Fever. But he never knew that it was really his own bunny. Come back to look at the child who he had first helped him to be real. The end. Such a sweet book, huh? We love that book. Mom used to read it too.

My mommy used to read it to me too.

Celine Rabbit’s been around for a while. What did we say to Stephanie? Thank you. You’re very welcome. Now that I’ve jumped up my end of the deal, but we’re not as hard, can we stay up a little longer please? That wasn’t part of the deal, please. No. What is this puppy, dog? It’s not gonna work. Fine. All right.

Yes. Okay. Can stay up for a few extra minutes, but no more books cause it’ll take too long. What’s so fine? ? Okay. Then what do you, what do you wanna talk about? Any, uh, any ideas? No, but I have a question for Stephanie. Oh, sure. What is it?

My dad painting,

would it be okay with you guys? If we were,

we may have slept in separate rooms last. But as soon as I ran into Chad wearing the same clothes yesterday, pretty obvious that him and Stephanie didn’t hold back. Okay. But you’re assuming, and if Stephanie and Chad didn’t go to bed together last night, then you still have a chance. I love how you have my back yelling.

I really do. But uh, that’s not the whole story. It gets worse. I’m just getting started. Hey, find by me. I’ve got all. And you know what they say? Misery loves company

Chan. Oh, Johnny. Hi. Hey. I was, uh, which is at your place, which apparently isn’t your place anymore. You really moved out. Allie and I decided to take a break, and then she decided to extend it. It’s about us, isn’t it? The kiss that never was, tell me about it, but no, it’s, it’s not just, , unless you’re like my mom and you think that Alex Kiya is spending the night and losing his underwear in Allie’s place is no big deal.

What? What? Mm-hmm. . She, she turned your threesome into a twosome. Yeah. I, I don’t know. She, she denies it, but I, I, I don’t know anymore and it’s bad. Either way. You look at it. Yeah, it is. So now you’re what? Just wandering the streets? Well, I went home for a while, but then he, even my mom, they were having this romantic dinner and so I just, I told them I would give them some space, which means you have some time to kill and there’s no sense in just standing out here in the cold.

So come to the movies with me, tickets and popcorn on me. What do. Johnny, are you sure this is a good idea? I mean, for one thing, what about Wendy?

Ah, there you are. Let’s go dude. What’s the rush? You said you wanted to talk. Okay. I never said that and plus I’ve been here for like a while. I want to get moving. Okay. I wanna go be with Dad. Let’s go. Hey Brandy. Hey. What a nice surprise. Get over here. Don’t tell Trip I asked you to come.

Okay. First of all, I want you both to know that I will always love your mother, just like I know both of you. And, and I was gonna tell you about Stephanie and me, but I just wanted to wait for the right time. So here we are. What’s the, uh, what’s the expression that, uh, that I always say? No time, like the present.

That’s it. And, I just want you guys to know that it makes me very happy that you guys like Stephanie so much because I really like Stephanie too, and I just want to make sure that the more and more time I spend with her and and date her that it doesn’t confuse. Or make you feel bad? Not me. Not you either, right?

Charlotte?

I’m glad. Are you two gonna get married? Mary

Um, uh, . That’s a, that’s a, uh, Mary. No. That’s a very big step and, um, that’s probably too big of a step for, uh, for us to talk about right now. So right now we’re just gonna talk about the very, very, very small step and, um, is it okay? Is it okay? Do you guys wanna spend some more time with Stephanie?

I guess that’s a yes.

I, I just saw you, so I don’t think that reads a hug. You always read a hug, , you know, we, uh, we’re just talking about you actually. It’s a, it’s quite the coincidence that we’d run into you, right. Yeah. You know what? No one was at the apartment. I was kind of bored. So here I am. Yeah, it doesn’t really matter.

Why. Have a beer with us. Please. Trip was, uh, just telling me all about how you helped him out. Yeah. How has your mom and he changed? Uh uh No, I still haven’t spoken to anyone in Bayview. Still doesn’t make it any easier though. Right? It’s great how you were there for him, um, when he needed you. You never know when those feelings are gonna come rushing back, and I’m always around Tripp whenever you need to talk.

Ugh. So I got a little hopeful when she told me that she read my apology. But then my hope Scott is dashed very fast. What is wrong with her? Like, doesn’t she realize you didn’t mean to hurt her? Oh, Stephanie’s not the bad guy here. I’m the one who messed up. I can’t be mad at her or even Chad, but I’m mad at, you know, it is what it is.

We ended as friends hasn’t. That’s as much as I’ll ever get. What a bummer. Yeah, to put it mildly. Whoa. Now I have heard your tale of, whoa, you’ve heard mine. Yep. Aren’t we? The pair? So what’s next?

Oh,

isn’t it obvious? Keep him coming. Oh, yeah. , oh, I guess trip’s really upset, but with his mom being in the mental hospital and he needs Wendy’s shoulder to cry on or whatever, which means I’ve got this extra ticket just burning a hole in my pocket. Wendy’s loss could be your, Johnny, I, I really don’t think it’s a, a good idea.

I know you already said that, but I disagree. I I know you’re worried Allie will find out, but it’s, but what, I don’t think either of us needs that headache and it’s already just, it’s so messy. It’s not our fault. Hey, how about this? We’ll put an empty seat in between us and I will put the largest tub of popcorn they sell in that seat.

Allie never has to know. So what do you say?

Well, that was unexpected. Oh, I thought you did great. Yeah. Well, it helps that they’re, uh, they’re crazy about you. You should have seen your face when Thomas asked if we were gonna get married. . My, my fa What do you mean you look startled? Uh, I, I didn’t know what to say either. I’m just, I’m glad you took the reins.

I’m, um, I’m very flattered and relieved that I got the thumbs up from your wonderful kids. Two very enthusiastic. Right . Well, you know what that means, right? What? As many of these as

you don’t like, Oh, sorry, Abraham. Oh this. This truly is a feast for a queen and I love you for making a special meal just for the two of us, but I need to go and get Chanel and bring her back here, Paulina. . Well, it’s partially my fault that she and Allie things didn’t work out with them. I was the one who told her to go back and apologize.

Now look, everything is just spiraled outta control. You gave Chanel sound advice and didn’t work out the way we hope. But you’re not the blame for that. Well, what the fucking stand my baby heard Paulina. Paulina honey. She knows a grown woman, and she’s wise and compassionate just like her mama. So just trust her.

Trust her. To find the right fix and then you and I can concentrate on us for a change.

We’ll wear sunglasses. Brilliant. Then no one will recognize us. Yeah, you didn’t let me finish. I’ll wear my father’s trench coat. We’ll enter separately and we’ll work out a series of complex hand signals to communicate with, or we could. Text. No. A spy these days. No. Too risky. You, you do know Morse code, right?

No, but I’m a quick learner. Is that a yes? You wore me down? Yes. I will go. We can go, but I, I need one of those elaborate disguises. Oh yeah. By all. Okay, but I’m thinking like a little less Clark Kent and a little more Charlie’s Angels. Maybe a blonde wig or some red box sprays or something. Sure, sure. I dig it.

But wait, I, I forgot to ask you what movie it is. I don’t wanna look like one of those, uh, fanatic overzealous cosplay. No offense. Yeah, not taken. It’s a total classic. What movie is it? Evil Dead too. Ge. No, no. Thank you. But no. Come on, come on, come on, come on. I watched Exorcist with you last time and that was enough for me.

Okay. I had nightmares for weeks. You know what, I’m not doing that again. No. Yeah. I can’t believe it. It, it will nobody go see this movie with me. Well, I won’t, but I will buy you a drink to make up for it. Okay? Okay. Where do you wanna go? No one could believe it. Trip hadn’t even been in Seattle all that long, and you know, he already made a lifesaving diagnosis that no one else caught.

Everyone else missed. I mean, this guy is a, he’s a hero. Then there was this one time, okay, you know enough about me, uh, , Hey, did you actually know that Joe here helped save the planet? He did. Mm-hmm. just last week, he took the recycling to the curb all by him. No one even had to ask him. That’s funny. You’re funny.

Yeah. Well, I try to do what I can. It’s late. Uh, I’m gonna head back to Dad’s place and see if he needs any help with the funeral stuff. Yeah, yeah, sure. Let’s go. No, dad and I can handle it. You too. Hang out. Good to see you. He just wants I to ask Joey something real quick. Hey Joe. You calls, didn’t you? Huh?

What are you? Okay. First she just shows up, uh, right after you pushed me to ask her about and then why you talking me up? Like you’re major or something. You heard her? She said she wanted to get outta the house and I can’t brag about my brother. No, you can’t. When you’re insulting my intelligence.

Alright. Okay. Yeah. I called her when you were supposed to be getting those beers that you never actually got. Okay. Why would you do that? I was trying to do you a favor. I know you wanna hang. You welcome.

You did outdo yourself tonight, Abraham Dinner was sublime. Well, I am glad you think so. Are you still still worried about Chanel? No, I am not. Thanks to you. You’re a very wise man. Mm-hmm. , and I am. I’m so grateful to you for always giving me perspective, not just on my children, on everything, you know. I am.

Surely you would do the same for me, . Yes, I would. Yeah. We make a pretty good team, don’t we? Mm-hmm. . Yeah, we do. Well, you know what? I think it’s time for a dessert. Well, if you, you mean this kind is a.

I am definitely ready.

Okay, you guys, come on. It’s time for bed. Hey, come on. Gimme your phone, but I’m in the middle of my game. You can finish it tomorrow. Okay. Okay. One more book please. , please. What about you? You want another book? Okay, fine. But only after you guys are tucked in for the night. Okay. Um, and before, um, before we go upstairs and, uh, I tuck you in for the night, I wanted to, um, I wanted to tell you guys something.

I’m mom. I’m very grateful that you have both. So sweet and so welcoming to Stephanie. Okay? It means it means a lot to me, and I want to tell you something very, very important. Hey, look at me. I wanna tell you something very important. I love both of you more than anything. You are the most important thing in the world to me.

And there is no one, there is nothing that is more important to me than you guys. So even though I like Stephanie a a lot, and I know you guys do too,

no one will ever replace your mother, okay? Okay. Not for me and not for you. Okay,

Joey. Steph, Hey, where are you headed off to? I’m headed home to see Dad. That’s where I’m headed to. How’s trip coming? Uh, probably not for a. No, I think he’s tied up, or at least I hope he is.

Okay, so where were we? Well, you were brushing off to tell Joey something over by the door, so I wouldn’t hear you. What was that all about?

What secrets do you hold? Golden Elixir. There’s only one way to find out. True that true that.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Staffing. There you are. Everything. All right? Fine. Why I was expecting to see with the office today was supposed to be your first day Max Co. C e o. Hmm. About that. I’ve actually been having second thoughts. What do you mean? I don’t think I should be in the job. I don’t think you should either.

If you’re here to see your brother, he’s busy right now. I know. I know. You’re more than welcome to wait out here if you’d like till he’s finished. Don’t forget that you need to let me in there now.

Cric acid upsets my stomach. Great. You have nothing.

How much longer will I be subjected to this indignity? I have important work to do. Yeah, you wanna get outta here? I can make that happen when? Soon as you flip on your partners in crime,

you stupid idiot. You had one job at Keep Warhol Roll from coming to Salem. Calm down. Why would I calm down when I’m about to lose everything?

What you doing? What, okay. Looks like you’re having a beer in the middle of the afternoon. Yeah, you care to join me

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

No, I’m not gonna join you, brother. I’m sober. You know that. I can respect that. I thought you were too.

I don’t even, oh, hey, hey, hey, hey. Come on. Blame me for being slightly concerned. I did just take a gun outta here hand, and I was trying to get Kristen to tell us where the OR was. I know. No judgements. I. I get it. It’s a look. It’s a horrific time for all of us right now. We could all use some support. All right.

There’s no shame in that. This is your way of trying to get me to go to a meeting. Brady, please. I’m fine. Nothing says fine, like solo day drinking, honey. I just lost my mom. I mean, can you blame me? Wanting to have a beer, trying to take the hedge?

Absolutely not.

I, I miss my so much, man. I, I, and she wasn’t even my, Hey, hey. She was your mom too.

No, no, no, no. You, she was, you’re absolutely right. She was, she was always just so. Helping us all through the hard stuff, you know? And now I, uh, how are we going, how are we going without a breathing? I know how we go on. We lean on each other and that’s the only way to go.

You are not sure we should be co CEOs, but just yesterday you broke out the champagne to toast to our future. Since then, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about Gabby and how badly we treated her.

You feeling? Brother, it sounded as if you were expressing sympathy for Gabriela Hernandez, ej. You and I teamed up to oust her from her job, a job that she was doing very successfully. So yeah, I think it was a mistake. I’m sorry. Are you saying you want to reinstall Gabby as CEO of Damer Enterprises? She’s a strong leader, smart, creative, incredibly driven.

What the hell is wrong with you? The last I heard you hated that woman with every fiber of your being. Yeah. Well, not anymore.

Gabby, your brother asked not to be interrupted. Well forget that I need to speak with Ralph immediately about how you had him perform a medical procedure on Stephan Damara against his will. Stefan doesn’t have any will, not of his own. Anyway, he was brainwashed. Damn it. Jada, please, I need to speak to, he needs to to deprogram Stephan before it’s too late.

This is an emergency.

I am not even sure where to begin with you. It’s just so damn much. Rolf. You know, first off, you hid Steph and Damira from the world for four years and then brought him back to life after which you brainwashed him. Meanwhile, Orpheus somehow managed to get his hands on a toxin. A toxin that killed. Kayla and Marlena.

Where the hell did he get that from? Oh wait. I know a lab. Know anyone who works in a lab, bro, I did everything in my power to save those women. You created the damn pathogen and, but I didn’t infect anyone. As soon as I heard those, remember here, I began going orchid, so I could formulate an antidote. Oh, right.

Yeah. Did you want him to be the hero? You know, hero, Ralph, you’re a coward. And the minute you knew we were closing in on you, you gave Kristen Damir, the York, and right before we busted into your lab, you had no reason to do that. I had nothing to hide. Oh yeah. That’s why you fled overseas, right? Because you’re innocent.

I think it’s a good time for you to start. This is gonna be your last chance to avoid life in prison. Who exactly do you expect me to implicate? All of your accomplices that committed crimes. Obviously there’s Kristin and then there’s uh, there’s the man that broke my sister’s heart, Lee Shin. Why don’t you start with him?

Stop telling me to calm down. Damn it. If we’re all flips, I’ll never get my job back or my wife, not to mention, spend the rest of my life in prison so you can go to hell for screwing this up.

Sounds to me like you could use a lawyer. Sorry. Oh my ears. They perk up whenever I hear anybody in need of an attorney. Hard to have a lawyer. Thank you. But not the best one because that would be me.

Ah, I see. This is personal for you.

Well, we both know that Lee pulled the plug on Stephan. Kristen hadn’t showed up when she did. He’d be dead. He already was dead. Oh, come on Roth. You of all people know better than that. You’re the one who took his twin brother’s heart and put it in Stephan’s chest and then after you stabilize them, you brainwashed ’em.

Cause that’s what Kristen and Lee wanted. I did not know what you’re talking the hell. You don’t. You know damn well what I’m talking about is you admitted everything to Gabby and then you shot her full of something that made her forget. Now, unfortunately, for you, all those memories came flooding back to her at her wedding.

If you know all of this already, what do you need me for? Because Gabby’s word is hearsay. It won’t hold up in court, so I need you to corroborate her. I cannot do that. As I said, I know nothing about any of this. You want to go back to states, Phil Roth. I guarantee you there will not be any pardons this time.

Uh, you offering me a deal, commissioner? Wow. That will be up to the da, but I can guarantee. Get trash on your side. You’re gonna need to give up information. Unleash in and all of his accomplices,

Sloane Peterson, Esquire, we haven’t met, but, uh, your reputation proceeds you, as does yours, Mr. Shin. I’ve read all your stories, keeping up with you in the tabloids arrested at your own wedding for brainwashing your bride’s undead husband only in Salem. The police have no evidence against me whatsoever. I gather from your phone call that could all change very soon.

If Ralph talks, which he has a great incentive to do, the DA will have more than enough to charge you. Hmm. Tell me something that I don’t know. I can tell you you’d be wise to. Why would you wanna represent someone who’s completely screwed? Why else money? You dig deep into those pockets of yours and I will make all of these charges against you.

Go away. I don’t suppose you handled divorces. You just got married. You already wanna call it quits. No, but I have no choice. What kind of attitude is that? It’s a realistic one. I don’t see any way of turning this around. Then I think it’s time that you think outside the box should you know how to do that right?

So I got into this mess in the first place and now I’m gonna get you out of it.

Okay? So you’re saying Dr. Rolf didn’t only did half the job. I need him to get out of there and finish deprogramming seven, or he could get stuck this way forever. Or he can have the procedure in a week or two and it’ll all be just fine. I can’t, I can’t take that risk. Don’t you see? Everything is on the line.

The life, the love, the future. I never thought I could have ch please ste. The love of my life and I need him back all the way back and he needs me to get him there. I was wondering where you disappeared to last night. When I came across Gabby, I thought you were hiding. I never imagined that she had hit me over the head dragged me to the basement so Rolf could deprogram me.

Steph, and I apologize. No need. You were obviously oblivious. Totally. Nicole and I were up here drinking the cocktails you poured to celebrate our.

Hope you enjoy your little drink, you J Cause after a few doses of this, you’re gonna start acting pretty strangely. In fact, your judgments gonna be so impaired that the Derion board will have no choice to remove you. I’m glad someone could enjoy. I think Nicole enjoyed a little bit too much. What do. She can hold her liquor like a champ, but those dreams stayed.

They really hit her hard. I still are hitting me hard and I have no idea why.

So wow. It’s Rachel, Rachel. Mad, confused, angry at Kristen? No, no, no, no. Chloe, yes, she, she blames Chloe for the reason her mom, you know, had to go away. So, uh, I’ve been trying to persuade her otherwise to no avail. And I’m sorry. How about you? Who are all the, uh, women in your life?

Jay and I are doing a great job of avoiding each other, Nicole and I working on it.

Is that what this is all about? What do you mean? Come on, man. I know that you still have feelings for Nicole and you probably always will.

How are you feeling? Do you need an aspirin? Nope, I’ve got some. Thank you. There really was, some have, yeah, and I, I can’t seem to shake it, you know, the headaches, the, the nausea, and I couldn’t even get out of bed till now, which doesn’t make any sense because I only had a mimosa and a glass of champagne.

I’m so sorry. Ma, are you sorry that you’re feeling this way? You know I’m gonna have cook, make you some tea and toast. Yes. All have been eating the last few days. The only thing I can keep down. Thank you, Ste. And then we will finish our conversation. Of course. Oh, uh, I, I didn’t mean to interrupt. Don’t worry about it.

You know, in addition to feeling like death warmed over, um, I still feel so embarrassed about throwing myself at you yesterday. As I told you before, there’s no reason to be. Yeah, I, I, I know we already talked about moving forward, but I understand if you wanna put the brakes.

Not at all. I’m very much looking forward to taking you on the proper dinner that I, uh, promised you. So I . But tonight you are not feeling very well, obviously, and I have a fire that I need to put out with Stephan. Ooh. A fire now. Mm-hmm. , that’s something I’m familiar with particularly. Dumpster variety.

What do you mean? I still have feelings for Nicole. It’s ridiculous. Is it We’re divorced? Yeah. What has it been like 25 years or something. And every time you guys split up, you find a way to get back to one another. Yeah. Well, not this time. Hey, just like I told Dad, you know what? And Cole and I are over.

We’re moving on. Yeah, I’ll bet Roman doesn’t even believe it either. Come on. You know what? Nobody believes me about me and the woman I’m now seeing. Right? I can live with that. Hold on, hold on. Hold the woman you’re now seeing. Mm-hmm. , you talking about that Sloan girl, isn’t that like a friends with benefits kind of situation here?

Mm-hmm. . It is, and it’s exactly what I want right now. Exactly what you want. Yeah. Mm-hmm. , right. Something shallow, something meaningless, without any messy feelings attached. You don’t like the feelings you have for Nicole. You’re not good. Ready? Just admit it. The only reason you’re fooling around with this Sloan is because you’re trying to prove to everybody, mostly yourself, that you’re still not pining away for the love of your life.

I admire your confidence, Ms. Peterson, but this all seems a little too good to be. You swooping outta nowhere, making promises you can’t possibly deliver on Try me. Okay. How are you going to persuade a woman who thinks I’m evil incarnate to stay married to me? Has your wife served you with divorce papers yet?

No. Then how eager can she really be to end your marriage? Sounds like she’s having second thoughts. She certainly pretended to stopped by my room yesterday. It gave me a whole song and dance about how she’s giving up on Stephan and thinks we should give our marriage a second shot. It’s all just a ruse to get her hands on my phone.

Your phone? Yeah. It’s a burner. She used it to find a number to reach out to Ralph. And why is that? The police station right now singing like a canary, so we prioritize, we deal with Ralph first and then we fight the. I can’t force Gabby to stay married to me . Sure you can. You just need the right attorney.

Write down everything you remember. More details are better, especially when it comes to Lee Shin. Hmm. Give me enough detail to put ’em away. You might just earn your Get outta jail free car. Pray. Listen to me. You gotta let go.

I have nothing to prove to anyone. Listen, I moved on Eric. If, if you don’t wanna be honest with me, that’s fine, but at least be honest with yourself.

Eric, I’m so sorry about your mother.

Oh my goodness. You know, Marlena was such a remarkable woman. One of my dearest friends, I can’t believe she’s gone. Gary is, oh, Gary is just heartbroken and poor Roman, his wife, his ex-wife, and his sister. He must be devastated. I came to pay my control. You’re sure. My dad would appreciate that, but he’s not, he’s not here right now.

All right, I’ll come back later then. But if you, in the meantime, if you need anything, anything at all, you just ask. Okay. I will. And the same goes for you, Ray. Oh, honey, you not only lost your, your stepmother, but all this mess with Chloe and Stephan is just seems to get crazier. What? What do you mean? Well, uh, you didn’t hear about last night.

No, I didn’t. What, what happened? Well, uh, Chloe came by the house yesterday to see Stephan, um, to tell him that they shouldn’t see each other anymore. Oh. And then she was explaining it all to me, and then the landline rang, which is funny. I couldn’t even find it at first. I didn’t know we still had a landline.

Anyway, it was a collect call from Vivian Alama who informed us that Gabby had Stephan held captive in the secret room in our basement. What? Chloe and I ran down there and found that the old VAT was telling the truth for once in her life. Gabby had Stephan tied up. And he was rigged to some machine that Dr.

Rolf was using to deprogram him. I would, Dr. Rolf was there. I thought he was Mia a Well, apparently Gabby tracked him down. You say what you will about that woman, but she knows how to get things done. Um, anyway, Stephan’s feelings for Gabby have been successfully rekindled. Hold on, hold on. This, are you, are you telling me that?

Stefan and Chloe are over. Uh, not exactly.

Wow. Stefan is in love with Gabby again. That definitely complicates things. Mm-hmm. , no kidding. The kids talking about me. Oh, I was just filling in Nicole on last night’s exciting events. Uh, I sh I still can’t believe I slept through. You were ill. I have no excuse. And how are you Stefan? What Ralph puts you through?

That’s pretty insane. Yeah. Well, I must admit, I got a little nervous when he said the word improvisation for the procedure, but, uh, pretty happy with the end result. You know, not that I should stick my nose in where it doesn’t belong, but you know, Brady and and Chloe are, are dear friends of mine, and I, I think they belong together.

So I, I’m really glad you decided to let her go. Who told you that? Ej, you said you were in love with Gabby again? That might be true, but, uh, there is an additional piece. An additional piece complication. What do you mean? I am also. Still in love with Chloe

Gabby, what are you doing? I’m in the middle of an interrogation. I tried to stop her. Oh, I can explain. No later. Right now you need to leave. No, I’m not leaving without Rolf. He needs to finish fixing Stephan. No, not until he agrees to testify and gives me a full statement. I already told you I cannot complete the deprogramming process.

The equipment is destroyed. Well then you need to make new equipment or buy it or order it for you on frankenstein.com. Whatever it costs. Whatever it takes. I don’t care. You need to get Chloe Lane out of my husband’s head. Come on, start writing.

So, because you interrupted the procedure, Ralph wasn’t able to finish? No, he wasn’t able to finish because the machine he was using went cap. When Chloe and I ran down there, there was smoke coming out of it. Gabby was going berserk, yelling at Rolf to do something, and then the cops arrived and arrested him.

What about Chloe? Is she okay? I’m not sure. I don’t know. She got upset and ran out. I can’t believe she didn’t tell you about this. Yeah, yeah. Me neither. Well, maybe she didn’t tell you because tomorrow is Marlena’s funeral, but Brady, I do think she’d appreciates some support. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, it’s straight to voicemail.

Why didn’t you leave a message? Because I’m gonna go to the hotel and talk to him in. Good luck.

Oh, what? What’s wrong? It is that Kate? Yeah. Dad likes having her here. Talking to her gives him comfort. Oh, well I can understand that. Of course, as it turned out, those ashes I was talking to all those years didn’t belong to my Tony. Then maybe Romans should have those checked . I’ll let ’em know you stopped.

All right. Good to see you. Thanks. Thank you. You take care, sweetheart.

Poor boys. All the grief there have to deal.

And I’m just sitting here. Kate, I feel so useless.

Thank you. And you’re right, defeatism be damned. There is definitely something I can do. You are in love with two women. That is quite a situation complicated, like you said, and obviously not tenable over the long term unless you’re into polyamory. Oh,

are you all right? Oh, I, uh, I think I just need some air. Shall I go with you? No, it, it’s okay. I, I’m not dizzy or anything. I just feel a little queasy, so. Be back.

Oh, I hope she’s, uh, gonna be okay. She’ll be fine.

You didn’t mention earlier that Ralph wasn’t able to erase your feelings for Chloe , his equipment malfunctioned before he could finish the p. Right. So if you are still in love with Chloe, you can certainly understand that it would be a terrible idea to reinstall Gabby as c e O. No, actually, I can’t.

Chloe just quit her job at Dira, and you want to make Gabby in charge of the entire company. In fact, you think that’ll burn a few bridges with Chloe? So in other words, keep things as they. With you in charge. With us in charge. Stephanie, we worked so hard to persuade the board to get rid of Gabby, to turn around now and tell them it was a huge mistake.

Not only would that undermine their confidence in us, it could send the stock price tumbling. We can’t take that risk. We need to stay the course. Hmm. I suppose you’re.

What are you waiting for? I have writer’s block Wolf. I swear to God I She is not helping. Could you give us a minute? Of course. Come on Gabby. I Gabby go, please

flock my ass. You know what? Me, listen, I’m sure Rayful wrappings up with roll soon, but I’m not sure how long it’ll be. So just don’t you go home. Try to relax. We’ll call you as soon as he’s done and we release him. Can you call me as soon as he’s done? As soon as they walk outta that door, I will, I promise.

Fine. Fine. I’ll get outta your hair, but please, please stay. Please. I will call you or brave will, but just try to relax. Okay? Not a chance. Not until I get my man. A love of my life.

Even if you can keep Gabby from divorcing me, won’t be much of a marriage. If she hates me and I’m in prison, I already told you I can make the criminal charges go away. How you gonna wave a magic wand? Make Ralph disappear. Don’t you worry, I have a plan, which I’ll put into motion when I’m hired. You’re hired.

So now what? Just sit back, relax, and leave the details to me.

Kristin Dira. Keep going, man. You’re on a roll. Is this not enough? No, it’s not. You want to avoid prison? You give me everyone you’ve got.

Stephen, I thought you were looking forward to us working together. I am. I just, I still feel terrible about what we did to Gabby. You evidently do not, she’s an outsider and I feel very strongly that Dara Enterprises should be run by der. Hmm. As far as one of them’s you, Stefan, I know that you were upset that I didn’t speak up sooner about the brainwashing, but you said that you would forgive me if I was able to put you back in your rightful place as coce O.

That was what you wanted, what you were excited about. It wasn’t until after Gabby forced you to submit to deprogramming that you started. Now that it’s been done, I wish that it had happened months.

For my role that I played in preventing that. Once again, I am very sorry and I’m very grateful that you have forgiven me.

I hope that you were sincere when you said you had. Yes, of course. All is forgiven. Well, I wouldn’t be going into business with you now, would I?

Gabby, I’m glad I ran into you. Are you? Yeah. I thought you’d want an update. Rolfe is back in Salem, and Stephan’s feelings from me have returned. He’s manly in love with me again. So then what are you doing here? Why aren’t you with him? Well, because we’ve had a minor complication. It, nothing that can’t be fixed.

In fact, I’m on cloud nine right now. Can’t you tell? Because I very soon will have my real husband back.

Chloe. Chloe, are you in there? Knock again. Scared me. Anna. Hi. Um, what, what, what are you doing here? I thought you could use a mediator, a woman well versed in the trials and tribulations of romance, just to keep your conversation with Chloe on the right track. Okay, . Thanks for that. Um, I don’t think she’s here though.

I think she’s on an errand or something. Oh, well, that’s too, no, it’s perfect. That’s perfect. When Chloe comes back, she’ll be in for the most wonderful surprise. What do you mean? Well, you just wait right here and I’ll be back in the chair.

Much better. Okay. It’s time to go.

Oh, oh God. Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to stand up.

Who’d you? Well, from a very nice gentleman at the front desk, I told him, you two love birds were getting back together. And, uh, that you’d lost your key card , and he just handed it to you. Well, he is a romantic. Bless the hundred dollars. I slipped him. Probably helped. And, uh, come on. No, come on, just go on inside Brady.

Once Chloe walks back in and finds the love of her life waiting for. She’ll be overjoyed. Yeah. I’m not so sure she’s gonna be down with the whole breaking and entering thing. I told her I’d give her space. Anna, she doesn’t want space. Brady, she wants you now open that door.

What? Um, yeah, I, I just, I, I, I thank you for carrying Anna. I just don’t think you need to be here, . I don’t have anywhere better to be . Sorry to hear that. I appreciate the encouragement, but Chloe and I, we don’t need a mediator or anything. Okay. But how about a videographer? Mm-hmm. . Look, I can record the happy reunion for posterity and look around.

We don’t even have to tidy up. Chloe is obviously a new freak. Yeah, she’s, wait a minute, where is all her stuff? Drawers are empty.

Bathroom’s cleaned out and I don’t see her suitcase, so that means that means she’s gone. But where too? Well, if I knew that. Damn it. So Stephan’s feelings for you are back, but he’s still not sure. You’re the woman. He wants . Why stop gloating. Okay, this is just a minor setback. I don’t even know what the hell I told you about it.

You were venting. I understand. Well, I should have vented to somebody who hasn’t made my life miserable. You know what, Rolf, when he finishes this procedure, he’s gonna make stuff and want me and only me. I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Of course you wouldn’t because you’re spiteful, cynical, and jealous as hell.

I will never want you again. Le Ro is ratting you out to the cops as we speak, meaning you should be on your way to Statesville very soon. I wouldn’t be so sure about that either.

Good. Just need you to sign on the dotted.

Don’t sign that statement. Who are you? Sloan Peterson, your new attorney?

You Nicole. What’s going on? Ah, Nothing. EJ and I did a little too much celebrating last night. Okay. Well it’s, it’s 5:00 PM and you’re still hungover. Well, it was quite a night. I’m fine. Are you okay to walk? Well, I’m not getting in the car with you if that’s what you’re suggesting, because I can smell beer on your breath.

I’m just gonna offer to call you a cab. I got it

where my phone is. Damn. Oh. Oh. You know what? Maybe, maybe I left it in AJ’s bed. Listen, I’m happy to help you. I can take care of myself. Thank you very much.

Thank you for being willing to put my deception behind this brother for being reasonable and understanding. Not exactly the damer we know. Is it ? Perhaps it might be the new way. Perhaps. Hate to see this tea go to waste. Can I enter you in a. Sure. Great. Sure.

You good, brother? Enjoy.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Well, I figured we got a strategy session ahead. We better load up on caffeine. Nice. Thank you, man.

Mm. Roman, are you sure you’re okay with this? Which part? They’re going after Orpheus part. I thought it was clear about. We’ve already lost the women we love thought of him coming after our kids, our grandkids. I won’t let another person die at the hands of that many amen. And the only way to stop him is to put ’em on the ground.

Okay, only a question remaining is how do we want to do it?

I thought you could use that, but don’t worry now that your, uh, killjoy of a brother isn’t around to deprive you, you’ll actually get to enjoy it.

Hey, sunny, do you, um, do you have a minute? I just wanna talk about the, um,

oh, all those beautiful smiling faces you. Golly. Thank you. You. Chad. Hi. Are you all alright, Julie? I’m fine. We were just going through these old photo albums and the memories got to be a little overwhelming, the end of the feeling. Of course you do. I think of all beautiful people we have lost. I just hope they’ve found peace.

What the hell? Oh my God. Are you telling me that all this time? I wasn’t talking to Susan Banks? No. Marlena, you weren’t.

You were talking to me, Nick Fallon.

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

Nick Fallon, the one and only. I hope you’ll forgive the deception, but I was afraid if I had revealed my true form to you, none of you would’ve given me the time of day. You made me believe that you, I was your beloved sister-in-law, Adrian. Yes. Pardon me for you, Marlena. I took the form of your simple, but recently deceased friend Susan Banks.

And for you, Kate, I pose as Jordan Ridgeway. Anything to keep you off balance? Hmm. Mission accomplished. Why are you here? Why are we here?

Isn’t it obvious I needed you to sign these?

How we kill, if this isn’t the hard part, how we get next to him. That’s the real challenge. True. Locking him up may not have kept us safe from him, but it sure as he’ll keeps him safe from us. Yeah. You can’t just stroll in a prison with a gun. Well, maybe not, but there are ways to get close to the bastard how?

Well, the easiest way to get next to a prisoner is to go to prison yourself. So what are you doing? Are you proposing that one of us gets locked up with orthos? Yeah, me. Oh, come on, partner. Don’t partner me. I’m the best man for the job. I have a criminal record. All I have to do is commit the right crime.

Plead guilty. I’m on my way to Statesville to get up close and personal with Orpheus. Go ahead, take a drink. Yeah, I mean, this is the good stuff. Well, as good as you’re gonna find around here, ain’t we? Well now you’ll enjoy it, won’t you? You sure? Yeah. Suit yourself. Just trying to cheer you up. I mean, you’ve been walking around here like you’ve got a dark cloud over your head.

Can’t imagine why I’d be in a bad mood. Oh wait, yeah, I remember now. It’s because my mom is dead. Sorry for your loss. I’m sure you are. Well, you know what? At least I could take some satisfaction to knowing we’re in here together. Oh,

so you’re, you are, uh, glad that to have the opportunity to spend some, uh, quality time with me, are you? If it were up to me, I’d watch Burn in Hell, but this is the next best thing, justice. Justice. My mother may have lost her life, but at least I know her killer will never breathe a breath of fresh air ever again.

I understand your, your anger. Lucas. I sympathize only one problem. I’m not the one who killed your mother.

So you just wanna commit a crime in order to get close to Orpheus. That’s a general idea. Mm-hmm. , didn’t you have any specific transgression in mind? Well, it would have to be something serious enough to get me sent to Orpheus to cell block. Maybe a good old fashioned b and e. What are you gonna break into for Knocks?

I thought I’d shoot lower than that. How would you feel about me, uh, breaking into this place and taking a few bucks from the till? Well, I don’t think breaking into your in-law’s pub. We’ll get you a cell next to a murder of StuG, like not a chance. Now you’re gonna need to have a serious offense for that.

Yeah. Okay. Alright, hold on. What if you don’t actually have to commit the crime? How would that work? To be honest, I’m not sure. But if you can get to trash, convince her that you need to get close to work is for whatever reason, she’s not your big fan, she might be happy to send you away. Okay. And, and when she asked you why exactly does Steve need to get close to a prisoner in Statesville?

That’s the one to put in there, right? Well, maybe she would want our fees to pay for his crimes, but I doubt she’d sign off on his cold-blooded murder. Well, that’s true. And that is, uh, the problem with that idea. All right, we’re scratching that one out right now. Okay, gentlemen, we’re back to square one.

Let’s go. Okay. We need to find an honest way, so to speak, to get me sent to prison. No guarantee that works. Either you can go out tomorrow, commit the perfect crime, plead guilty. It’ll be months before they send you to state. That’s a. Besides, once you take the bastard out, we can’t get you out of jail.

You’re gonna spend years of your life behind bars. Kayla wouldn’t want touch. No, neither would doc. Neither would Kate. So we’re done with that idea here. Steve, your family needs you. Hasn’t that son of a bitch taking enough away from us already? Of course you killed her. You poisoned her. You sadistic bastard, just like you did Marlena and Kayla.

Oh, I, I don’t deny that, but. Probably well aware. That was the culmination of the war that began a long, long time ago. But that’s old news. Your mother was cured of her ailment months ago, as were the others. She was in remission. She wasn’t cured. What semantics? My point is, had they continued to receive treatment from that rather remarkable orchid, they would’ve all gone on to.

Long productive lives. She and her friends, no. She and her friends are gone. They’re dead and they’re never coming back. That’s because of you, right? You might want to take that up with Kristen Damara. She’s the one who withheld the serum. She didn’t withhold anything. Kristen didn’t do that. I don’t know why all of a sudden she decided to do the right thing.

Why? She wanted to do something admirable, but she was gonna hand it over until somebody stole it. Who? No, there’s your culprit. So why didn’t you? And the rest of you guys chase down the, uh, dastardly orchid thief because we don’t have any idea who it is. Oh, well. So rather than lashing out at me, perhaps you should reserve some of your anger for Ray Hernandez and is Mary Band of Bozos.

Come on, Lucas. If the Salem PD had done its job, you’d know exactly who signed the death. For your mother.

You okay? Yeah. I, I was just expecting to find Sunny in here. Well, it’s understandable. It’s his office, right? So is he around? No. No. He took the day off. Spending the day with Will. I am just following his desk and handling any uh, Titan business that’s pressing. Do you want me to take a look at something?

No, it’s okay. It’s okay. It’s private or it’s just the PR strategy for our new publishing subsidiary. It’s not due for another week, so we can wait. Beating deadline by a full week. You’re really on it. I’m just trying to stay busy these days. Right.

Um, so if you could just tell Sunny I dropped it off. Okay. You got it. Thanks.

Something else? I read your card.

You know, I used to love going through the old photo albums, but the older I get, the more I realize how many people that we’ve lost, people are dug, and I never expected to outlive. Please, you guys are gonna outlive us all. , you know, I’m almost a hundred Chad. Well, age is just a number. I agree. Hang on. I cherish every single moment I have with you

And with all the people I love, I just wish, I wish all of them could have been as lucky as we are. Me too. Love. Yeah. I miss ’em all, all taken before their time. Even the ones whose lives are spinning out of control,

like my poor, tortured cousin Nick.

Um, what are those? You don’t recognize them? You, you, you just handed them to me. Well, Susan told me that I had to sign that to get to the next level of. Right. Adrian told me the same thing. Okay. Well you were all told that, but we were all talking to you at the same time. Yeah. So time and space work a little differently here, but it sounds like you’re catching on.

Okay. What is this all about and, and why are you collecting the signatures? Is this really about moving to the next phase? Well, I’m, I’m so sorry, ladies, but what I told you was not exactly true. You weren’t signing some boring, bureaucratic paperwork. You were actually signing a contract. Yeah. What kind of contract?

Oh, you, you, you didn’t read it before you, before you signed it. Well, I mean, you made me think that you were Adrian and that I could trust you. Did I? Okay. Well, let me give you the, the short version of it, because what I have here in my hands are contracts of sale. Sale. We’re kind. Oh, well, Kate, uh, each of you has just sold me probably the most valuable commodity you possess.

Um, namely your souls.

Those contracts we signed, we sold you our souls. Wait, are you telling us you’re the devil?

That’s really good. That’s really good. No, I’m flattered. It’s really, but that’s a different, uh, that’s a different guy, right? Marla? Yes. You just work for him? I do. I do. You know, he’s not a bad boss, surprisingly. Just as long as you do his bidding like a good minion and, and don’t ask too many questions. He misses you by the way.

I’m touched. So anyway, the big guy is very busy, as you can imagine, being the devil. So he dispatched me in order to sign over your souls . Frankly, I thought it was gonna be a lot more difficult. Honestly, it was easy. It was really, it was really, really easy. But um, yeah, there are your signatures. Bolds can be Kate.

So now there’s nothing left to do but collect.

You can try to pass the blame all you want, but my mother’s death is on your head. And Marlena’s. And Kalis. And you know what? If they hadn’t been infected in the first place, they never would’ve needed the damn cure. A cure, which they had until it was stolen. Mm-hmm. . It’s funny how life works. I don’t think it’s funny.

Nothing funny about it. Nothing at all. Funny as in peculiar, Lucas, someone set something in motion, someone else responds to that and leads to consequences. No one could have. Is that for you? Because you know what? You knew what was gonna happen. You wanted him dead. Hmm. Oh, Lucas, I feel like we’re talking in circles and I’m getting rather bored, frankly.

I just remembered I’m wandering the kitchen for, uh, mop duty. Oh, good. Go do your mop duty. I hope you fall on your face. I hope you break your neck. Oh, now Lucas, that’s. That’s not very neighborly of you, but I’m not gonna take it personally because I know you’re going through a traumatic time for fella, which is why I was just trying to help.

I hate to see you suffer.

You write my card. Thank you for writing it and for the apology.

I meant every word. I have never regretted anything more in my life than I regret turning your phone off that night, Steph, and I am truly, truly sorry. I believe you and I appreciate everything you said, but not enough to give me another chance.

I’m sorry, I just, I don’t think we can go back to what we had before. Too much has happened. Is that because of my turning your phone off? Or because you slept with Chad?

I still think about him all the time and what went wrong. I’m still grieving for Nick. If he was on this earth, I would. I would try to help him reckon with what he did, but he’s gone. It’s gonna take a far higher power. Judge Nick Honey, I think if there’s any justice at all, he will suffer for his sins in the afterlife.

One can only hope that Marlena, Caden Kayla’s killer will suffer the same fate.

You know, maybe we’re making this more complicated than it has. Seems pretty complicated all on its own. We don’t need to be in Statesville for the long haul. We just need to be there long enough to have a moment alone with Orpheus. So you mean we just visited Prisoners have visitation, we put a request in, we head on out there, presumably just to shoot the breeze with him.

Once we get along with the guy, we take him out. That would cut out a lot of steps, including me committing a felony just to get on the inside. Come on guys. You know how the security that that prison is, you can’t just walk in that room with a weapon. They’ve got guard stationed everywhere, Roman. You know that weapons come in many different forums.

We can figure that out. Yeah. John and I have threaded smaller needles than that in the past. Yeah, fair enough. But what happens when a guy turns up dead after one of us visits him? What? Then let’s worry about the consequences after we accomplish our mission. Right now, I just want that human stain removed from the land of the living.

What’s going on here? Roman? I thought you were on board with. I am on board with killing Orpheus. I’m not on board with that six son of a bitch taking the rest of our lives. Alright, well listen, we’re brainstorming here. If you’ve got any ideas, let’s hear ’em. You’ve known Milo harp longer than any of us.

How do we waste the guy without sacrificing our own freedom or for stars? We can’t come directly at Orpheus. Can’t look that way. Or we get caught and that’s not exactly vindication. Agreed. Agreed. So what are you suggesting, Roman? That we come at him indirectly.

When I brought you the card and the flowers, your door was open. I wasn’t trying to look, but there you are with Chad, right in my line of sight. And I saw you kissing. You were there. I was there, Steph, but I didn’t stick around. No. I got the message loud and clear. That’s why I left everything outside the door and I took off.

I thought I heard something. I, I figured it was just the wind. Ah, no, not the wind, just me. But if that wasn’t enough to convince. Seeing you and Chad together like that. I actually ran into Chad this morning and he was still wearing yesterday’s clothes, so I did the math, Alex, and before you go on to tell me that it didn’t happen.

Wow. I wasn’t going to deny it. I have no reason to lie to you, Morgan. I’m sorry, what were you gonna say? I just wanted to say that that wasn’t planned. Chad Knight, we’d gotten close. I spent time with him and the kids, but he was still grieving, as you know. He wasn’t in a place to be in a relationship.

And then last night he showed up at my door and said that he was finally ready to move on. Wow. That’s good timing since you were available,

ladies. Okay. No need to grab. Okay. I have looked at a lot of contracts in my day and there are always loopholes. Nothing is airtight. Well, I think you’ll find the terms are laid out quite clearly. Do you know how many lawyers the devil has working for ’em? Basically all of them. There are no terms though.

This is old gibberish. Well, what do you expect? He doesn’t write in English. I mean, he was around before English was invented. . Well then none of this should be valid. Oh no. Trust me, it’s, it’s valid. Your souls belong to Satan. Okay. Okay, fine. We sold our souls. All right, so what do we get in return? Excuse me.

While contracts mean, contracts go both ways. If we sell you something, we get something in return. You see in every story that I’ve ever heard, when the devil offers to buy your soul, he, he tends to offer you some sort of earthly reward. Yeah. Like fame or fortune or something that you always wanted. Go ahead.

I’m, I’m gonna sit down, but I’m, I’m, I’m listening. Well, in the movies, the person has given their. When they’re alive. Yes, of course. I mean, isn’t that really the point? It’s only after you die that the devil comes and takes you to help. Right. You know what I’m feeling right now is, is that I should have watched more movies when I was alive because they sound amazing.

Alright, what is your answer? I’m sorry. What was the, what was the question? Eh? The question is if we sold our souls, what do we get in return? Right, right. You are absolutely right. I do owe you something. I owe you a reward. And it’s true. You’re gonna get it after you died. I think that you’re gonna find it was well worth the place.

Okay. This one for you? Oops. One for you? Yeah. And one for you.

What the hell is this? It’s crisp. $2 bill. We sold our souls for $2. No, no, no, no. Not $2. A $2 bill first issued by the US meat in 1862 initially thought to be very, very, very valuable. Though so rarely circulated, they ended up becoming more of an obsolete Curiosity, much like your souls, this is ridiculous.

This is useless. This is not a reward. It’s insane. It’s pathetic. Okay, ladies, that is valid US currency able to be exchanged for goods and services alike in, in many countries, not just united. Instead of a bitch, you son of a bitch. Okay. How exactly do we go after Orpheus? Indirectly easy. We’ve already got somebody who states us, somebody who hate.

As much as we do Lucas, Lucas, . You want us to ask Lucas to take out Orpheus? You know what? Lucas lost his mom. I can only imagine. He’s just as furious as we are and desperate for revenge. Lucas is certainly not above committing the crime after what he did to Sammy, but I’m not talking about asking to do our dirty work.

Then what are you asking him to do? For now, just provide a little intel. Lucas is a savvy guy. I have a feeling he has a few ideas how to get to horses.

Let’s talk first steps. First step. I pay my stepson friendly visit.

That was our wedding day. Mm-hmm. . It’s the happy day of my life. a, a yellow, so radiant with love and joy. Yeah. I thought that we would have enough memories to fill 10 of these.

Darling,

I spoke with Jack about how, how worried Doug and I have been about you. We know you’re still deep in pain and we understand. We understand that, that that pain will never go away entirely. We are hoping and praying that somehow, someday you’re able to find love again.

Jack and I actually just talked about that. He told me, he said he was encouraging you to move on

Yeah. I mean, yeah, it, um, we talked, it was helpful. It’s kind of new, but I’ve started seeing Stephanie Johnson. All right. Wonderful. Wonderful.

You think so? I do. She’s lovely. More importantly, she has a big heart. She’s smart. And you know, Thomas and Charlotte simply adore her. And when I’ve seen you with. Your spirit seems lighter. Yes. Yes. I think you’d be good together.

I’m glad to hear you say that. I wish you all the happiness. We have been in desperate need of some good news and this, this is definitely good news.

I didn’t know if Chad would ever be ready to move on, and then you and I got together, but now you’re. Because of what I did, and I accept that I made a terrible mistake that I can’t take back. And I wish I could give you another chance to talk to your mom, but I can’t do that either. And as hard as it’s gonna be for me to get past my mistake.

Alex, listen. You know how hurt I was. Turning off my phone, but not getting to say goodbye to my mom stuff if I had any idea. I mean, no, I know. I know. I understand. You didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just a case of really bad timing. Yeah.

If we were just talking. You and me our relationship. Maybe I could try to get past it, but

the thing is now there’s something between Chad and me

and I wanna see where it goes.

Okay, this is a crap deal. It’s not fair and you know it. You know we are not going anywhere with you. I’m no lawyer, but I can tell you, since none of us knew what we were signing, that the deal cannot be binding. You three need to open your minds. Okay? We’re not in some stuffy courtroom in Salem. We’re in the great beyond.

Here. I have final word. Uh, no you don’t. Excuse me. Mm. You told us yourself that you only work for the devil. So you see what we’re gonna do is do the proverbial end run Iran. You right. Ooh. End run. Wow. Ah-huh. . We demand to talk to your.

Well, thank you. Thank you for being honest with me and making your feelings very clear. I didn’t know if what was happening between you and Chad was a, a one time thing or what we’re, we’re taking it day by. I don’t know what the future holds for us, but I’m hopeful.

I got it. Just so you know, Steph, I’m not gonna keep bothering you anymore. I’m not, I’m not gonna be sending you cards if flowers are begging for you to come back to me. I, I’m just not, you know, I’m, I’m not gonna be serenading you at your window. I’m good.

And as far as, uh, everything with Titan, um, son’s still the ceo. He, he can still handle whatever you need, whatever you bring to him. Yeah, I think that’s best, at least for a little while. And maybe once we’re through my mom’s funeral and once things have settled down a bit, maybe we can, why? Still be front

this seat taken. Oh, hey. Hey Roman. Um, what are you doing here? Well, what do you think I came to see? You came for a visit. I didn’t think you’d ever wanna see me or talk to me again after, after what I did to Sammy. Well, I am still pretty angry about what you did to my daughter, but no matter what you’ve done, you’re still Kate’s son.

And I know she would hate the thought of you spending all your days in here alone. So here I am.

Thank you. Thanks. It means a lot to me. Of course. Are you holding. Not good. It’s getting to me. I’m falling apart. It’s miserable in here. Only to top it off. I just had a run in with Orpheus.

You wanna speak with the devil? Yes. Yes. We wanna speak with the devil. Well actually, We demand to speak to him. That’s right. I think that’s a great idea. And I’ve spent years battling him from my very soul, my very existence. So I don’t think it’s too much to ask to have him come and turn out this contract.

Otherwise you’re going to have to tell him that you fell down on the job. Because you see, unless we speak with the Prince of Darkness, we are going nowhere.

No more trips down memory lane. Doug is making lunch for us in the kitchen. That one’s a keeper. You know, I think the marriage is gonna work out.

Darling, I hope you do find happiness. You deserve it.

I know you said that all you ever cared about was that the kids and I are happy. What? You wanted me to move on.

I just wish that there was some way that I could know you were actually okay.

Do you remember? We used to imagine that, that we would be like Doug and.

Be back at a lifetime shade together.

I know how much you love Stephanie.

She makes me happy. Happy. Kids too, and for the first time since I lost you, I’m able to look forward to the future.

As wonderful as that future may be, there’s always gonna be a part that’s missing

no matter who comes into my life. No one will ever replace you.

I’m sure. The last thing you wanna hear me say is that I wanna be your friend. I just don’t want you to think that I hate you because I don’t.

I am glad

we had a good time together, didn’t we? We did.

Stephanie, I am sorry. Sorry about your mother. I’m sorry about everything.

Thank you.

Actually, ramen won’t mind at serving ourself. Ah, thanks,

son. Mine, partner. What you mean? Besides our pat to kill Morpheus. You’re not having second thoughts now, are you Not Morpheus, Roman. I mean, he wasn’t on board with any of this at first, but yet he is the one who’s out at Statesville. I know what you’re saying, but the fact is he’s less compromised than you and I are

not easy living with blood on your hands. Roman’s a grown man. He made his own decision and with any luck, Lucas will make the same one. So huge shot Murphy. Yeah, he was sitting in the same chair you are right now. He’s trying to push alcohol on me. Okay. You didn’t? No, I didn’t. Okay. I need you to do me a favor and get rid of this for me as soon as you can.

Alright? Of course. Yeah. Uh, what was he trying to accomplish with us besides torturing me? I mean, that’s what he does. He ruins people’s lives. You know, that not only did he kill my mom, but he’s trying to get me to fall off the wagon. But I’m not gonna do it. I am not gonna give him the satisfaction.

Excellent. Lucas. Maybe it wouldn’t be such a bad idea if you did.

Are we going to stand here looking at each other, or are you going to take our request to the devil? Make the call Nick. Ugh, you’re all just delaying the inevitable, but fine. I will relay your request. In the meantime, might I offer you a little re paste?

Very kind. Enjoy, because I guarantee you things are about to get a lot. Unpleasant.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

You really slept with one Uhhuh . The ink on our divorce papers isn’t even dry yet, and you already slept with that horrible woman. Uh, I’m right here, but I do know is officially none of your business. I wanna make something clear. I don’t want you putting Gwen down how defending your girlfriend’s honor.

She couldn’t be way too rid of a criminal like me. What you care how I spend my night?

You laughing at me because you do this every time we go out to breakfast. Do what? Take half an hour dithering over the menu.

How many years have we been coming here for breakfast? And you always order the same thing. Do not. Western almond skilled potatoes and crisp bacon. Sometimes I order sausage . Oh, I do love that about you. You know what you want. That’s a fact.

Show what you gonna be? Sweet Rose. I Gotted style. Ooh, peanut butter, bacon and banana sandwich. Seriously, I added that one. It’s the king’s absolute favorite breakfast. And when I say King, I don’t, don’t, I don’t want breakfast. Do you understand? All I want is information. Where is Kayla? Hello? Can anybody hear me?

I’ve been dead for weeks and nobody’s come from me. Hello, anybody? Oh, is that a voice? No, sounds familiar. Excuse me, Kate. Hello, is anyone in charge here?

I’m

Hello. Hello? Can I get some service?

Hello? Hello? Are you ignoring me? Don’t touch me.

Jordan, welcome to

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

Hey, did you get any sleep last night? Oh, I don’t know. Maybe a couple hours. How about you? Well, you know, I think, uh, I’m sleeping a little better, I guess. You, uh, want your regular just coffee please. Thanks. Long way to come for just coffee. Hmm. Well, I got a text from Steve. He wants to talk to me. I’m assuming it’s on funeral arrangements.

Yeah, yeah. You know, I think as difficult as that’s gonna be once we all get through it, maybe baby, maybe it just might be a little easier to. Keep going. Well, I hope you’re right about that, Roman, without doubt by my side, I don’t think anything is gonna ever be easy again.

You’re still threatening over Dr. Kay. Shoot. She was my.

She is my best friend and I need to find her. So would you please check your list? Oh, But only because you are my best friend in the whole white world. All right, now I’ve already looked under both Junction and Brady. Just, just keep checking. Okay. Just ready.

Well here it is. So fool. Put it under K for Kayla. Well that’s great cuz Nash is in the good place too. Just like you.

Jordan Ridgeway. I can’t believe this. It has been such a long time, Kate, and we have so much catching up to. Yeah. Well, I guess it’s official then, because if I’m stuck here with you, that means I died and went straight to hell. Kate, Kate, Kate is me. Kayla, your sister-in-law. I’m, I’m, I mean, I’m in this room with a locked door.

It’s been weeks. Somebody, anybody please get me the hell out of here. We don’t usually cuss up here.

Oh my God.

I was so surprised when they told me you were here. I thought for sure they made a mistake.

It’s really you. Oh.

You feel like I didn’t even know. You seem to have me sized up the other day. I’m just a lying, kidnapping thug. Isn’t that right? Do you deny that you traumatized Bonnie or that you are part of the reason that Susan is dead?

I shouldn’t be surprised that the night that our marriage ended, you slept with someone else. But if all the women in the world did it have to be her,

look at you got your appetite. I’m just so relieved that Kayla is where she deserves to be. I think I’m gonna need a friend and so will she. Oh, don’t you worry your little head about Dr. Kayla Cha. Cause she is about to meet a

now. Ah, Adrian, we have all missed you so much. I wish Steve could see you and, and Justin and the kids. I know my passing was a tremendous shock to them. It was for all of us. I just keep thinking of my family and what they must be going through right now. You know, I, I, I always assumed that people in heaven didn’t have the care in the world.

I’ll tell you something, I am so worried about. And how much pain he must be in. All I know is your husband is gonna be okay with a little help from his friends.

Hey guys. I’m sorry, but you’re gonna have to leave. What? Yeah, this place has been booked for a private event today. I guess nobody told you. That’s right. Well, and don’t worry about the bill. I’ll take care. You want us to just go? Yeah, I can come back tomorrow for breakfast. The breakfast will be on Roman, by the way.

But you have to go right now. I won’t. You, uh, take your toast with you he way to the car. Here you go. More shoes for you. Don’t worry about the glass. Roman won’t mind Right this way.

What the hell was that all about? Well, something tells me that this meeting is not about funeral arrangements. You got that right? Okay. Well, since I own this place, you wanna tell me what’s going on? We have a new case. We are on bereavement bereave. Not anymore. What kind of case is. The kind that needs to be top secret.

Oh, great. So this is my punishment for a lifetime of sin and shame being, being stuck in hell with you. Still as melodramatic and self-centered as ever. Honk Kate, an fyi. The infernal region. This ain’t, oh really? Oh. So where are we then? Well, we call this the in between place. It’s not as majestic as heaven, not as sweltering as hell.

We’re somewhere in between. Oh, so how long will I have to be? I mean, how many decades of rosaries am I going to have to say before I get that upgrade? It’s not that simple. The souls of individuals who end up here must be judged to see if they’re worthy of moving forward or if they must descend the eternal stairway all the way to the bottom floor.

So who’s going to judge my. Let go get them.

Oh, Dr. Kayla Johnson is in very good hands. . And what about Kate?

Do you suppose it, she made it here as well? I made anything.

Would you check your list again

please? Okay. But this is the last look she that I can do for you.

Look how your horses, you don’t got enough places to look. You know, I got beef for Brady. R for Roberts. D for Damara. What about, what about Cave for Kate? Oh, well, I.

She is. Oh. Oh, that’s wonderful. Kate needed to heaven. Not exactly.

So my eternal fate is in your hands. Damn right it is. Well, I don’t see how that’s fair. You see, when we were alive, you hated. And you don’t think I had good reason? I mean, besides the fact that you are a miserable excuse for a human being. You were so jealous of my relationship with rape that you went digging around behind my back trying to sabotage me.

Talk about holding a grudge. A grudge. Oh, this is more than a grudge lady. This is hatred for all of e. What, why be? Just because I was curious about you because I was trying to find out what your story was just because you found Clyde Weston and told him where I was hiding. I didn’t know what he had done to you, Jordan.

Irrelevant. Okay, you, you brought the man who molested me back to Salem thereby ruining my life and now it is finally coming back to ha new Catherine. Finally,

if you wanted to hurt me, you succeeded. You slept with the heartless bitch. That left me wasting away on Kristen’s private island. Here we go again. Oh, I’m sorry. Are you sick of hearing about all the awful things that you did to me and the people that I love? That’s really too bad. Did it slip your. That she worked overtime to convince you that I didn’t love you anymore.

All while knowing I was wandering around Kristin’s creaky old mansion, thinking I was some dead heiress named Renee. I remember, or maybe after Chad and Abigail rescued me, you’ll remember that your bed made. Gave me a second dose of a drug that could have left me permanently brain damaged. No, but it didn’t did it because you’re able to recall every single thing that I’ve done wrong.

And for your most recent unforgivable, wrong wrongdoing, sleeping with the sadistic a. Which,

so if you’re looking for a way to really get back at me for divorcing you, congratulations, you did it. Hats off to you.

Okay. Try not to worry. Steve has a great support system. John and Roman would go to the mat for him and so would your kids. Yeah. But John and Roman and Tripp, and Joey and Stephanie, they are all grieving too. They need Steve and I, I just, I just think, uh, think what? Tell me. I just think that Im the only one that really knows him.

I mean, you do of course, but you’re not there either. And I just know that when Steve is in this kind of. She couldn’t really go to a dark place. Look, I am excited that you are willing to tell me details of the top level Black patch case. But I stopped playing cops in robbers a long time ago. I’m running the business now, Steve, and you’re costing me paying customer.

Okay,

Dave, keep you. Damn Mike this. Damn. What is it about this case that’s got you so jacked up partner.

The client is me. What is up me? I’ve been thinking about. What’s gonna keep me going now that I’ve lost? Kayla came to me in the middle of the night. The three of us are gonna kill Orpheus.

Adrian, you remember how it was when I first met Steve, all he thought about was how he was gonna get back at someone who crossed him. Honey, that was decades ago. I know. But, but, but now, this whole thing that’s happened with Cade and Marlena and me, I just like the whole thing is gonna flare up again. And you were always there to talk him down.

Right. But I’m not there. Adrian, I am just so worth, but what sort of trouble Steve is gonna get into now. So you want the three of us to commence me? Can we slow this down a minute, guys? You both know it would be a service to humanity to put Orpheus down like a rabid dog. Yeah. Andy Self Steve, but I’m a retired police commissioner.

I shouldn’t even be hearing this. What are you worried about? Your pension, Steve? You know damn well isn’t it? I took her oath. Yeah. And where did that oath get Kate? And what about the vows we made to our wives? Huh? We promised to love, honor, and protect them. Now, maybe you can live with the way they died, but I can’t.

We failed them Roman. If you know what, there’s a very good chance that Orpheus could end up on death row. You don’t have to go rogue. Let the system take care of it. The system. Are you kidding? You’re gonna leave Orpheus’s fate up to Melinda Trask, for God’s sake. We’re the ones he’s after. We’re the ones who need to end him.

Do you know what I find? Absolutely hilarious. In all of this, the concepts of honor and integrity, you holy hortons, you just have no problem looking down on us and passing judgment, but then you’ll turn the other direction when it works for you. Do you know what? My police record is nowhere near as bad as Zanders is.

Sorry darling. But you had absolutely no problem ripping off his kilt and blowing on his bagpipes every chance that you got, did you? I believed he wanted a change. He didn’t want to work for Ava Vitali. He didn’t want to kidnap Susan or Bonnie. Do you know why he did it for you for the money so that he could support you and the lifestyle that you are so very used to you sanctimonious judgment.

Okay. Goodness. That’s enough.

I’m glad she. It explains everything you would think. Kidnapping for hire is a perfectly acceptable way to make a living, even if one of the victims dies.

Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t send your twisted, destructive soul straight to the bad place. What about your twisted little soul Jordan? Here you are in the afterlife. You still can’t find it in your heart. To forgive an innocent mistake, innocent you call subjecting the good citizens of Salem to a sick homicidal predator who molested his stepdaughter, who killed a mother of two and cold blood, an innocent mistake.

I call that a tragic and indefensible mistake. Oh, what are you saying? Are you blaming me for Abigail? Well, you are to blame. If you hadn’t brought Clyde West into town, Abigail Dara would still be alive. Those children would still have a mother. Okay. Just hold on. All right? Because Clyde would never have stopped looking for his son.

He would’ve founded you and Ben. It didn’t matter whether I intervened or not. And as I told you before, when I went looking for Clyde, I had no idea of what he had done to you when I thought that you were hiding something. That’s what I. But when I did find out how he had abused you, I felt horrible. Oh, so horrible in fact that you did nothing.

Yes, you’re right. I did not, I did not act quickly enough when I found out I should have washed my hands of him completely. And I didn’t. I didn’t. And I’m sorry. I am sorry for that, dude. All right. You’re. Now that I have your soul in my hands. Opportunistic much.

Okay. I get it. I do. It’s um, it’s too little, too late, but it is a sincere apology, Jordan.

Okay, look, you’ve gone on and on. My transgressions. Right. But you turn a totally blind eye to the the pluses of my record.

Okay. Kate, please indulge me with the pluses of your record. I always tried to be the best mother that I could. I was always there for my children no matter what, doing whatever I had to do to them. And they knew that. They knew that I was devoted to them. And then later in life, a good man, Roman Brady, it found it in his heart to forgive me and love me, a person like me.

And to my amazement, I found great happiness leaving with him in our apartment over the pub.

So can, considering that, don’t you think possibly I have a soul that could be saved?

Look, I, I know you have legitimate grievances against me. I really, I really do. But I have to tell you, I have changed. Roman really brought out a better side in me. You know, I was, I was less selfish. I was more compassionate kind of

well, You do make a compelling argument, but I’m gonna need proof. Okay? What do I have to do? You can sign a document that confirms your genuine contrition. All right, I’ll, I’ll sign that. If you are lying, the document will burst into flames immediately and you’ll be doomed for all of its. Okay. All right.

That’s fine. I, I will sign it. I can sign it. Okay. Here we go. I’m just gonna need you to sign right here next to every single word I uttered to Judge Ridgeway was the God’s honest truth.

No flame. Okay. Okay. Well then I guess I do believe that you feel sorry for ruining my life, albeit too late. And you are on a path to being a better person. It’s never too late for that, I suppose.

Well, I have to thank you so much for coming around the way that you. So maybe now we can fast track this transfer to heaven. I know this is staircase, but is there an elevator? Not so fast. But you said that I made my case. I said it was compelling. The decision of whether you make it up to the good place.

Well, that’s beyond my pay grade. But you said you were my judge. I am. And I am recommending that you move forward to the.

This document certifies that you have completed arbitration with me. So does that mean that I never, ever have to see you again? Careful. But thankfully, yes. Take this with you. You may now advance to the next round.

This is so great. Thank you. You have made. Oh, are you in my eternity? Jordan? You are an angel. Hardly. I really hope that Kate’s judges is fair and unbiased. Oh, everybody hears fair and unbiased. Now you gotta stop getting your head over your lady friends. See Dr. Kayla Brady Johnson and that moon. Okay.

They gotta make their own spiritual journey. Yeah. Now see, you need to start thinking about how you wanna spend eternity. I have.

I would like to see the people that I’ve lost. I’d like to see my baby DJ and my twin sister, Samantha. Oh, it would be so good to see Tom and Alice Horton again. And Sean and Caroline. Great. Oh my goodness. Yes. All in time. Only in time. Now, first you need to shine your release paper. What is it? Well, oh my goodness, , this is to advance you to the next level of heaven.

Okay. And that, that’s where the G is. All you need to do is shine your name,

you say, so you say so. There you go.

Kayla, after everything you’ve been through, I, I hate to think of you stressing so much over Steve. How can I not? He’s my husband. The love of my life. Kayla, your life is here now in.

What’s that? You’re way out of this room and it’s the afterlife. All you have to do is sign on the dotted line. Well, what is it exactly? It’s just a formality really. It states that you relinquish your earthly life and pledge your iort soul to God. Can’t I have a lawyer? Look at it. We don’t get too many of those.

It’s okay. Seriously me.

So this is about payback. It’s about protecting our families. Listen, Roman, I respect you for living by your code, but the problem with that is it makes you predictable to Orpheus. He only understands one form of justice and I for an eye, and he’s never gonna stop making us pay for his wife’s death. Hell by now.

It’s just a game to him. Look, I know the justice system isn’t perfect, but I still believe in it, and you can’t ask me to take the lawn to my own hands. I’m not asking just you. I want the three of us to do that. John Toxin sent to him. I’ve been listening to both of you.

I agree with. Steve, let’s get that bastard.

If you want to go along with this. John, you really can’t believe the killer Nous is the answer here, Wil. There’s something you don’t know.

When Orpheus was first released from prison, Steve wanted to meet me here. We sat at that table right there, and he told me that he wanted to take Orpheus out before he hurt or killed anyone. And I talked him out of it, and I use the same argument. She’s just.

Now, if I hadn’t done that, we would probably be having breakfast with our beautiful wives right now. So I gotta side with my partner. We need to wind this earth of my low arm now. No. Okay.

Hello? You’re all sucking. Your destiny. He’s waiting for you. You’re gonna come with me, right? Oh, I’m afraid you have to take this next step on your own, but we’ll have plenty of time together, I promise you that. I sure hope so. Adrian, spend his time with you. It’s really warm for my heart. Oh, sing the hair.

It’s,

you’re right. I worked , I told you. Okay.

Kayla Brady Johnson, you are so gullible.

What is next? Well, I’m just going to take this upstairs. I’m gonna file it and then I’m gonna come write that down here and I’m gonna introduce you to your Heavenly host and I am not talking about Ms. Hilda. Ms. Jan on that there today Show.

Marlina. Oh my gosh, Kayla. Oh, I’m so glad to see you. What are you doing here? Well, um, I’m, I come to the virus. Same. Is the same as you and Kate. No, no. I prayed and prayed. They would find an antidote to save you in time. It’s okay. I’m where I’m supposed to be.

Take this with you up those stairs. Well, I guess this is it then. Ah, let me just say once again from the bottom of my heart. Thanks for not holding me back,

Kate. Thank you.

Have you said everything you wanted to say or is there more? I honestly think that you and I don’t ever need to say another word to each other. Once Justin files those papers, you and Gwen will be free to spend the rest of your lives doing what you do best. Bringing mis.

God help this town.

Why? Wow. Kayla, you’re here too. Where are we? Ugh, I’m so relieved to see that you made it to the good place. I was worried about you. Ah, yes. I was so worried myself, but luckily, weirdly, judge Ridgeway took it easy on me, judge Ridgeway. Yes. The fate of my eternal soul was in the hands of none other than my ex-friend Jordan Ridgeway.

What I said to Sarah, and I was a bit harsh a bit, I just, I couldn’t. How going after you like that? Going after us? Of course you couldn’t, I mean, however harsh you were, it was only in reaction to Sarah lashing out at you. She provoked you go. Did you intimate? Well, this is quite new. What is you taking up for me like this, especially in regards to Sarah?

Well, you had my bag when the whole kidnapping thing blew up in my face, and I think about what that cost you. I don’t regret a single thing. Neither do I. I mean, for the first time in ages. You know what? Well, it feels good. Didn’t about you, but I’m sick of apologizing for who I am. Right? I mean, why should we have to go around town holding our little hats to people like my father and Sarah?

Yeah. I mean, it doesn’t work anyway. They just end up assuming. They assume the worst of us regardless of what we do.

I say we’ve proven, right? What does that mean? I say we take the good people of Salem for everything we can get.

Roman, I heard what you said before. We can’t do this without you. It’ll be like this conversation never happened. No, no, no. Why? If you’re gonna do this, it’s gotta be all or nothing. So what are you saying? I’m saying I’m man. Let’s make damn sure that Orpheus never hurts another living. So

you were locked in a room. I mean, that doesn’t sound very heavenly, and I thought purgatory was. Good. Good. Goody. The game is y’all here now. I need those papers you two signed

and I to sign papers too. Adrian brought them to me. Yo. Jordan Ridgeway made me sign papers as I couldn’t get out Purgatory. Oh, I show sure ladies. There’s benefit of a confusion. Why? What’s the matter? Well, I’m in Katy. That was not Jordan Ridgeway with you and Kayla, you were not visited by your lady sister-in-law.

Who was it? And I also hate to warm you, Dr. Ing. I am not your damn.

Well then who are you?

It’s you.

What you doing here? Signed it on papers, didn’t I? With divorce? You got what you wanted. What I thought I wanted.

That’s what I think of these four figures.

Baby. I’m so sorry. I’m so, so sorry. Ending things with us was the biggest mistake I have ever, ever made. I love you so much, and I always, always will.

Oh, there you are. Pour yourself some orange juice. Uh, how do you want your eggs? I got some leftover asparagus. How about an outlet? Thanks, pba. I don’t really have an appetite. Not relevant. You’re going to need your strength to get through this grilling. I’m about to give you grilling. That’s right. You are too upset to talk when you got in here last night, but, huh?

Give your space but breaks over child and you are going to eat and then you’ll talk and you’ll tell me exactly what’s going on between.

Are you as hungover as I am? I think I’m worse. Hey, I’m, I’m sorry that your underwear went missing. Ah, you don’t have to shout. I’ll text you if I find them. Don’t worry about it. There’s plenty more where that came from. Okay. Ali, maybe doing all that drinking last night wasn’t the best idea in the world, but I’m really glad we got to hang out.

Me too. Bye bye.

Sounds like you two had quite a night.

Hey, good morning. Good morning, buddy. Uh, coffee’s on. Let me get you some breakfast. Uh, no, I think I’ll wait for Stephanie and Joe to get up. Uh, Joey just went for a run. What about s. I guess she’s sleeping in.

Is that Look what I think.

What do you think it is? Regret

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

Thanks.

I’m glad Stephanie’s sleeping in. She’s been pretty ragged lately. Yeah, no, we had a talk last night, and this isn’t easy for any of us, but because she wasn’t there with her, When she passed, she’s having a really hard time.

Oh man. More flowers. So we’re done with that.

Yeah, they were outside the door last night. Son of a bitch. What? They’re from that jerk. Alex, you’re kidding me. She didn’t get to say goodbye to her mother because this guy’s playing God with her life and he just thinks flowers are gonna get her to forgive him. Yeah. Well, at least now she knows what a self-centered creepy is.

Pamela, let’s hope she does better next time. Her

regret, I’m the one that showed up at your doorstep asking if you were still interested. Yeah, but I brought you in here. Maybe that was too fast for you. Last night was amazing. I hope so. But in the way you were looking up at the ceiling, you looked Yeah. It’s just a strange to wake up next to someone who’s not Abby.

I get that. It’s been a long time since you did.

It’s not as long as you think.

Everything’s fine. Why? Why? Why’d you ask? I don’t look like everything’s fine. Oh, wow. Just a bit hung over. Alright. How did you sleep like a baby until you started tossing and turning? Sorry about that. You look like you were having an intense dream. Really, I, I don’t remember anything. You were mumbling something about, um, signing papers.

Weird. Oh. Just gonna see if we have any coffee.

You were dreaming about Sarah, weren’t you?

Yes.

Yes.

You are kidding me, right? Nope. So, Allie, your girlfriend, your partner, your lover, comes to the hospital where her grandmother is dying and finds you making eyes at her brother. I wasn’t making eyes at him. Where that means, man, wait for it. It happened again at home. Her home, she comes in and finds you there with him again.

Whoa. No wonder you don’t have an appetite. I’m feeling a bit bilious myself. I told you nothing happened. Johnny was just in pain and he, he needed someone to, to, you know, out with. But what about Allie? She was in pain too. And you offered her brother doing God knows. Well, in the first place, I would’ve been there for Allie, but she sent me away.

Her grandmother died. She told me to go home, and then she, in her pain, turned to Alex, Kiki for comfort. How is that any d. The difference is I don’t give a damn about Alice Kiki, whereas you are my daughter and I care mightly about how you were behaving. Okay? And since you are my mother, I don’t understand why you won’t believe me.

Johnny was my husband and I loved him and I still care about him very much. And he was just so, so sad. And. Alone and, and lost. And he just, he needed someone to talk to. I do believe that, but that’s not the whole story is it? And what is that supposed to mean? It means that’s how this mess got started. But I still don’t know how it would’ve ended if Ali hadn’t walked in on you.

Do you?

Thank you.

Okay, so, um, about last night, it’s none of my business. I shouldn’t have asked. No, I I want you to know that, um, Alex and I, we did go out drinking and we did not drink responsibly, and neither one of us was in any shape to drive home. So he just came over and he crashed here in the office. Nothing happened.

Oh, like I said, none of my business, but, but what? Well, if nothing happened, then how did he lose his underwear?

Sorry. It’s just been my experience since, you know. Preschool. That’s pretty hard to lose your underwear. I mean, look, I don’t know what happened. He was sleeping in the office and I was sleeping in my own room. Sorry. And I, I like, sorry, I, I, I, I don’t know. You know, the man sleeps in the nude, so he did sleep alone.

Okay. Ali, I’m sorry, it was none of my business. No, sorry. You just, I understand that you probably thought I was sneaking him out, but I wasn’t, we were only being quiet because we didn’t wanna wake him up. Get it all now. So, uh, so Chanel’s still asleep? Um, I don’t know. She moved out.

Why are you even asking me that? Because I, I want to know the answer. I wanna know what’s going on with you. Okay. Well, if you wanna know the truth, I’m feeling pretty shoved around right now. I was with Johnny in the hospital and, and he was in really bad shape. And yes, you’ve established that Johnny was in bad shape, but does that justify you?

Please, would you let me finish? Allie, she gets out of the elevator and just like that, Johnny and I were judged and found guilty. She, she wouldn’t listen to anything that we had to say. I didn’t even get a chance to tell her I was sorry about her grandmother, because from that second on, she just shut me out.

And then when the news came out, I tried to hug her and she just walked away from me. My, my, my, she didn’t handle things well. She had just lost her second grandmother that week. Oh, damn. The girl. Why does it feel like you’re taking her side? Speak. I remember when she took up your side when you were rock bottom facing murder charges, she was fierce for you.

I know all that. Mom, you’re acting like I don’t love her, but I do. What do you keep pushing back? Every time I try to make you see how much you hurt her,

and so I can tell myself that it was because of Gwen’s lies and, and that she got me crazy and drunk. The truth is, is I, I cheated on my wife with her sister, and it’s just, there’s no excuse for that.

That must have been horrible. But you, you got past it. Yeah, because she forgave me. I mean, I have no idea how she did. Oh, maybe it has something to do with how much you two loved each other.

This morning I was thinking about Gwen and how that was a mistake. This, this, this is not a. At least not for me. I mean, I hope the, the same is true for you. Meaning, meaning it wasn’t that long ago that Alex hurt you the way that he did, and

you know your mom. It’s just, I know everything is. This is sudden and I just hope that my timing wasn’t off.

You look like I feel Did you tie one on last night too? No, but I would’ve been justified if I did. Were you party? More like trying to forget it’ll work. Not at all. In fact, I should get my money back, but I will, uh, I will leave you alone. No sit misery loves company.

Okay? So. You had a dream about Sarah or was it a nightmare? Did you relive her, dumping you? No, it wasn’t like that. I dreamed she showed up at the door and told me she made a terrible mistake. She tore up the divorce papers and we started.

It’s just a dream. Gwen, Sarah and I are done. She made that crystal clear last night. You wouldn’t be here otherwise.

Why am I here then? Exactly. If you’re over Sarah, I mean, why did you sleep with me?

It’s okay. You can’t tell the truth. You can tell me if it was a drunken mistake.

So, yeah, she went stay with her mother for a while.

I knew you two were fighting after I left yesterday, but I didn’t know it was that, that bad. Yeah, it was that.

Well, you said she went to stay with her mother for a while, so, but it’s just a break. I don’t know. I mean, she left pretty abruptly. We didn’t really negotiate terms. I only have one. I just want her to own up to what almost happened with Johnny said That doesn’t happen again. Wouldn’t mind that. Did he, um, did he find you after you ran out yesterday?

I’m really sorry that you found out like that. I, it’s just me and my big mouth. No, it’s not your fault. You, you didn’t know I was there. Well, it doesn’t feel like that. So tell me, did I really screw things up between you and my brother?

Uh, boy, that was, What I just had to text Roman. He just lost his wife, Marlena, the mother of his kids, and now I’m texting him about his sister’s funeral arrangements. I can, I can do things like that, you know, letting people know, make arrangements, and, sorry.

Dr. Johnson?

Uh, yes, I’m sure. No. Uh, okay. Okay. Well, we, uh, we can talk about it when I get there. Thanks.

What was that about? Nothing. Don’t do that, man. I heard you say talk about it when I get there. Was that Bayview gonna go see your mom? Yeah. Did they see how she’s doing it? Don’t change. And look, you don’t have to. Uh, the last thing you need to be worrying about right now is her. All right. After everything she did to Kayla is, listen, listen.

Come on. You’re my son. Your mom matters to you. So that means she matters to me too. You got it? Yes sir. And another thing, new rule. No secrets in this house.

I hope that takes care of any doubts you may have about your timing or regrets or anything else for that matter. Well, you sure have a way of making a point. I do understand why you asked though. I am on the rebound, but just technically. Alex May not have meant to do what he did, but I knew he was arrogant, entitled, self-absorbed from the start.

See, that’s, that’s me. Chad, purposely not chatting you in . Your, um, restraint is admirable. But I do wanna say one thing though, that you and I can take things slowly if we decide that’s what’s best for us. But you should just put Alex outta your mind.

So I wrote this card to go with the flowers and really, I.

I don’t think grovel would be too strong a word. And how did Stephanie take it? She didn’t take it. I was too late by the time I got there. Chad, the mayor already slithered his way in and let’s just say it was quite obvious that she moved on. So I left my little flowers and my card outside of the door.

And I’m guessing they’re in the trash by now. Well, I’m not gonna lie. , you really messed up. Maybe not as bad as Zander, but Stephanie does have every right to, I hate my guts. I am, yeah, I know. I also know now that all the liquor and Salem isn’t gonna help me forget that. The difference you and Zander have is that you always find a way to get past it.

I mean, you always. Not this time though,

these are divorce papers. Your dad drew them up for me once they’re filed and I are over for good.

Well,

I think last night it probably was a mistake,

right on your part.

You slept with a, a drunken, messed up loser, guness. It’s pretty dumb. Whereas I, I slept with someone who gave up a job, a home, a father. Someone who stayed with me when stood by me when no one else did. Kby company during one of the worst nights of my life. Someone who’s given me so much, I’m just not sure I can often return.

My card’s on the table. Eh, I’m not over. Sarah and I, I dunno when I will be, if ever, don’t worry about it. I mean, I’m not stupid. I didn’t, um, expect anything to come out of this. Even though you told me you love me,

that’s my problem, isn’t it? If I think it is a problem, Gwen, your father made you choose between me and him, and you chose, okay, look, what, what can I say? I, um, don’t like ultimatums. Do I? I have that, um, opposition defiant disorder thing. Don’t make your joke outta it. Qu when I think about what you did, what you gave up for me and I look.

You didn’t ask me to do this, did you? You didn’t even know about it. It was my choice, my decision, and I don’t expect a thing from you in return. And if you want to pretend like last night didn’t happen, well.

Believe me, that is fine by me.

I should have known you to be like this. You did know that’s why you came home. What inside, you know, you don’t need sympathy and hugs. You needed a place to figure out what the hell just happened and. You know, Allie is at sea and you need to do the thinking for the both of you. She’s like, I’ve never seen her.

It, it’s like, she’s not Allie. I, I, I can’t talk to her. I, it, it’s like, I, hell, I don’t even know what it’s like. It’s, it’s grief baby. Books and movies lie. Grief isn’t throwing yourself onto the casket and sobbing. It’s a cold icle pissing your heart. It’s it’s despair and anger and emptiness and no faith that you’ll ever get past it.

And until you go through it, you don’t have any idea how strong it’s. Now the way Ali treated you was so unfair and you love her, so watch it hurt like hell. I’m just so sorry. Yeah, I had to go through it, but I’m the one that has to get over it. The aha moment

hall, she, she doesn’t know if her mother will be at the funeral and her father’s in prison and she and her brother can’t even. Same room. I have you and, and, and Allie. She just, she has no one. No, no, honey. No, no, no. That is not true. She has you, she has you.

I don’t think you need to be worried about me and.

But just so you know, he told me that what happened at the hospital with Chanel was just a weird moment and I’m the one he’s interested in. Of course he said that.

Okay. Um, maybe I’m going a little bit too far here, but you and Johnny, both of you have been hit by a truck. And maybe you both do say things you usually wouldn’t. Right. But that’s the thing going after Chanel is not, um, out of character for Johnny. So if it was a weird moment, then he’s been having weird moments since puberty.

And, uh, you know what I, I just, I think you should know this. Johnny has always had trouble with boundaries, impulse. Especially with women. I mean, for example, he was so, so upset when Chanel chose me over him, and yet he wasted no time rebounding with Tripp’s mother. Okay? I, I don’t blame him for that. They were both in a bad place and he knows it was a mistake, right?

And as soon as he admitted it was a mistake, it was right back to going after my girlfriend. Look, I’m not telling you that you should find somebody else. But if I were you, I would at least see who else is out there.

Sure. I can’t get you something to eat before you go. Nah. I’ll get something on the way. Well, I hope it goes better than the last time, buddy. Me too. Love you. Love you too. I’ll see you later. Okay.

Good morning, baby girl. Good morning. Yeah, I was just about to scramble some eggs. Yeah. Um, before you do, uh, Chad’s here. So I see. Morning, Mr. Johnson. Morning, Mr. Damara.

I am gonna, uh, leave you guys. Two, it. Um, I’ll call you. Hey, I was just telling Stephanie I’m gonna scramble some eggs. Okay. Why don’t you stick around, get him a cup of coffee.

So, um, milk sugar.

Call me if there’s anything I could do. I will. Uh, Steve, thank you for the eggs. They were very delicious. Glad you liked them. Okay. Um, I’ll see you soon. Call me if you want to talk. I will.

Hey Steve.

I’m sorry, Kayla. She, um, everybody loved her. Yeah. Well, thanks. We’ll see you. Okay.

Dad, I’m sorry. Why is your house two? I don’t think you needed a surprise this morning. And I’m sure you can guess that that wasn’t planned. I vaguely remember how those things can happen spontaneously.

By the way, those, uh, flowers are for you. There’s a card there. They’re from Alex.

Yeah. I’m sorry. Not much of an appetite. No. No surprise. You got a cure for a hangover. Yes. Don’t get drunk in the first place. Ah, . Uh, but maybe some fresh air will help you. Yeah. I walk out with you and leave for work. Okay. Hey Sarah, I’m really sorry about you and. Makes one of us.

I don’t want to pretend that last night never happened. Quinn, even if you don’t love me back, I care about you, Quinn. I know what you gave up to protect me. So if you need a place to stay, oh God, no. No, it’s, it’s all right. Leo has offered to share a room with me at the Salem end, so I am just peachy. Look, I’m gonna be out of your way here in just a minute.

No, you’re not in my way, Gwen. And I, I don’t want you to just take off. Look, why don’t I take you out for breakfast?

What? I spent the last of my money on Scotch. Wow. Happens to the best of us, doesn’t it? No. Sorry. Look. I’ll get you next time. I mean, I think I know what you mean. No, listen,

I’m putting some clothes. Don’t go anywhere. We need to talk. Let’s figure this out. Yeah. Yeah.

Somehow I don’t think there’s gonna be a next time.

Hey, are you okay? Yeah. Hey, sorry I didn’t, uh, I didn’t see you someplace. Is it about your mother? Yeah, I just came from. and, well, she wasn’t as manic this time, but somehow she was worse. Just catatonic, just stared off. Like I wasn’t even there, just stared off like, uh,

There’s nothing inside.

Hi. Hi. What are you doing here? I live. . I know, I, I’m, I meant I know what you meant.

I’m, I’m here because I’m sorry. I’m here because I know I hurt you and I’m here because I miss you. I miss you too. But Martin, are you. You love. I’m hungover. Alex and I, we went out drinking last night. We hit our limit and then we just kept right on going. Yeah. Well that makes sense considering everything you’re going through.

But you said that you came here because you hurt me, but I thought that you left because I hurt you. Well, the thing is, I’ve been thinking I was hurt. And then that kept me from saying how much I had hurt you. And then I kept making things worse by trying to tell you that you were overreacting. And it is not my place to tell you how to feel.

Do you really mean that? Okay. Well, I’m sorry too. . You screwed up. It happens. There’s just someone I saw you and Johnny together. I got like so crazy. Is that what you call it? What? So tell me with these belong to Alex.

Hey Chad. Hold up a second, Alex. It’s just that you and I haven’t had a chance to talk since. Well, you know what happened. Yep. Unfortunate. Yeah, it is unfortunate for me. Not for you.

You want me to give you some privacy?

No, no. Need

the couch first thing. What’s better than found money? I have just enough to get some breakfast and sweet bits, so I’ll be right back.

Come on. How desperate are you? It’s not like this is exactly breakfast. Tiffany’s,

I should have to go through what you’re going. I mean, now I should have to go through what my mom’s going through, right?

So I know your stepmom’s funeral is soon, but after that, I would like to say goodbye before you go back to Seattle. Actually, I’m not, uh, going back right away, really. You’ve given everything with my mom. I don’t think I can leave. Well, the reason sucks, but it’ll be nice to.

Damn it.

Dear Stephanie, I know you have no reason to forgive me, but.

Do you have a problem with me? I’m just more off the speed than you think. Chad, I saw you last night, Stephanie. I came by to drop something off and uh,

the door has left them. Yeah, yeah. But I’m sure it just slipped your mind in the heat of the moment right now. Here you are. Sam closes last. So I think it’s fair to say that you probably spent the night. Yeah, I did.

Guess there’s nothing really left to say then, except you’re a lucky man.

Yeah, they’re. Is he still here? No. No, but he left these behind. Yeah. Look. Okay. We got really drunk last night. He just crashed here. Okay. And he spent the night in the office. And where did you sleep? In my bed. Oh, and And then how did you wind up with his underwear? Okay. Look, Chanelle, nothing happened. Oh, I’m supposed to just take your word for it.

I’m supposed to trust you The way you trusted me when I told you that nothing happened between Johnny and me. Okay, where are you going? Back to? My mother’s. I never should have left.

Morning. Morning. Um, I heard about your divorce. I’m sorry. No, you’re not. You’re trying your very hardest not to do a happy. While you’re waiting to warm your way back in a Xander’s bed. But I didn’t have to worm my way back into his bed. Actually, Xander invited me.

What? When? Last night. I just came from there. You and Xander slept together last night and I’ll believe it. Don’t believe it

said there wasn’t much sleeping going on.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Xander, I just wanted to say.

Something’s wrong. Huh? I need to take your top off. I need to see my work. Well, I need to see too. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I need to know if you’re wearing a wire

from me. Oh, you shouldn’t have Ali. Hey, so where are you going with these flowers? Oh, are you going to see Stephanie? Are you guys back on track now? Now? No, but with a little luck by the end of the night.

Is it a bad time? My dad just left, so No, no, your timing is fine. Well, I, uh, I hope you think that after I tell you why it came, sounds serious. Yeah. Well it is, uh, actually, I mean, it is to me. Jack and I, uh, just had a long talk and he had some advice about what us.

As one of Dr. Marlena Evans Blacks nearest and dearest friends, I am honored to be here to mourn the loss of such a wonderful woman,

Anna. Hi. Uh, sorry. You must have not heard the doorbell. Oh, I’m sorry, Chloe. I was, I was just working on my eulogy for Marlena. Oh, okay. I won’t keep you then. Um, I’m here to see Stephan. Have you seen him around? You know, I haven’t, but I’m sure he must be here somewhere. Oh. Oh. Thank God. He’s, can you hear me Gabby?

You okay? Are you are? Where are we? Why am I tied up somebody on timey? What? You don’t remember why you’re here. You faster? What have you done to him? You were supposed to bring his memories back. Now take them away

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

So you and Stephan, huh? I heard the two of you had gotten involved. Yeah, we, we were definitely involved. Well, that’s wonderful. I’m very happy for both of you. Is it serious? Oh, I’m sorry. There I go prying again. You know, you don’t have to answer that. No, no. It, it’s, it’s okay. Yeah. Um, we, we were serious, but some circumstances have changed and I’m actually here to tell Stephan that I think that he and I.

Shouldn’t see each other anymore.

What do my memories have to do with any of this? What did you do? I did Of me stop my fault. I did no access to better equipment. Man, look at me. Look at my face. Okay, I see you, but I, I still don’t get any of this. You need to really see me okay. Not just who I am, but what I mean to you. Sorry. We’re, we’re, that’s why we’re here in the basement of your home too.

Undo what Rolf did to you. I, I, I need to make sure that it worked, that there aren’t any side effects. I love you so much and I’m just trying to help. Do you understand that, Stephen? Please? Do you understand?

Well, okay. Wait, wait, wait. You’re just gonna go in there. Cult? Mm-hmm. , like you haven’t sent her a text or a call to warn her that you’re coming? Mm-hmm. ? No point. Sorry. Stephanie’s been ignoring my calls. Okay. So what makes you think she’s gonna agree to actually seeing you? What? Well, because I just spoke to Paulina Price and I told her everything.

I told her how I turned off Steph’s phone. when Chad was trying to call her and I kept her from seeing her mother before she passed. Hmm. I bet Paul had a lot to say about that. Yeah, she did. She definitely let me know her thoughts about me, which weren’t much, but she also shared a little bit about her life and some of the mistakes that she made, like giving up her daughter Lonnie, when she was young.

The whole point that she was trying to make to me was that Lonnie forgave her. So Paulina gave me hope that maybe I could be forgiven for the awful things that I’ve done. Obviously not as serious, but still. She also told me that if I wanted to apologize to Stephanie, I needed to do it the right way in person persuasively.

So flowers, check apology letter. And my best wounded puppy dog look to top it all off . Okay. Well it seems like you’ve really thought of everything. Yeah, Ali. I just really hope it’s not too late to make this happen.

Um, so Jack gave you advice about you and me. I’m, I’m not sure I understand. Yeah. Um, I shouldn’t have, uh, blurted it out that way. That was. Weird. I think I’m just a, I’m a little nervous. It’s hot in here. Can I, I’m gonna take on my coat, if that’s okay. Yeah.

Um,

yeah, so I don’t think I’m gonna say what I rehearse because it’ll probably just come out as, as mosh I’m, I’m just gonna go ahead and shoot from the hip, you know, just say kind of what I’m thinking off the, off the top of my head, if that’s okay. Yeah, it’s okay. So, so I know that I told you that, um, that I didn’t know if or when I would be ready to move on from Abigail.

Um, I said that it would probably be never, but, um, but I’m, I’m. I am hoping now,

really hoping that you and I can have a future anyway.

Oh, what bloody are you talking about? Wow. Your best bud. Leo was here a while back. He wanted to give me a heads up that he’s gonna cut a deal, testify to the grand. I am the one that kidnapped Susan and Bonnie. So I gave him a heads up that if he went through with it, it’d be his last act on this earth.

And how does that have anything to do with me? Well, it’s just a wee bit of a coincidence, isn’t it? That his bestie Guinevere shows up my door out of the blue. Are you here to finish what he started? Get Melinda trash. What? She needs to send a zander down the river. Got it. Picture it. Now you leore and the da.

Let Stitch Sander up to take a for. I mean, why not? He’s a bloody loser. Anyway.

Hi Mommy. I’m so sorry. I didn’t think anyone was in here. No, it’s okay. You can come in. I’m just, uh, I’m trying to figure out what to say. Kayla’s funeral, you know, I just can’t seem to find the right words.

She was an extraordinary woman and doctor. And it’s a tragedy that she’s gone. I still can’t believe it. Me neither.

Are you gonna speak at the funeral too? Oh, um, these aren’t notes for a eulogy. They’re divorce papers. Andrew and I are done. I, I can’t believe you just did that, and I can’t believe you just accused me of wearing a wire. I mean, my God, it was just a couple weeks ago you told me to save myself and testify against you if I was drunk, man.

Yeah. And you’re drunk now. Single more this time. Oh, bloody hell. Well, you can’t blame me for being suspicious when my neck saw from looking over my shoulder all the time. You should know damn well by now that I am the last person. You need to worry about being like that around God. I came here in fact today to reassure you.

You don’t need to worry about me going and cooperating with the police. You don’t believe me. You can ask my father, Jack. We’ll see. You got to do this everything. He gave me an ultimatum. He said, I can go to Rafe, cooperate with the da, we’ll risk him cutting me outta his life forever. What? I was forced to choose one.

I trust you, Sandra.

Okay, so pretend you’re Stephanie. I show up flowers, an apology letter, and obviously I know a letter and a bunch of flowers isn’t gonna turn everything around, but I mean, it’s a start, right? Right. I mean, I, do you think I have a chance or am I just like diluting myself? . I mean, obviously I don’t know what’s in the letter, but assuming that it is a heartfelt, sincere apology, if it were me, yeah, I definitely consider forgiving you and Stephanie.

You know, I mean, she’s hurting right now, obviously, but I think deep down she knows that you are too good to give up. Well, thank you for saying that. And I’m sure that Chanel knows that same thing about you, cuz you are way too good to give up. Yeah. I appreciate you always being in our corner, Alex, but of course I actually don’t think that Chanel does know that about me.

What are you talking about? What do you mean what happened? Well, we tried to talk things out. Uh, didn’t get us very far. So we’re on a break. She moved out. Oh hell no, no, no, no, no. You ally. You know what you gotta. You gotta call her. You get her over here right now, right this instant. And you know what? I’m gonna be the damn couple’s therapist.

I’m gonna do it. I am. I’m obviously not a pro, but I’ve read a lot of articles on relationships lately and I did take a psychology class in college, so I might be able to help out a little bit. Alex, I love you for trying to help, but this is between me and Chanel. I understand. I just hate to see you go through this.

You two seem so good together. We were for a while. But anyways, enough of that. You need to go to Stephanie right now. You need to go. You need to give that girl these flowers and that what I’m sure is a beautifully written letter, , and you gotta tell her how you feel. So go, go, go another minute. Thank you.

Thank you,

You told me just recently. You couldn’t even think about getting involved with someone until you’ve worked through your grief. That was before I had my talk with Jack. You know, I, um, remember how I, I told you that I, that I was worried that it would be unfair to you if we got involved because of my feelings for abi my, my inability to move on.

And so, Jack and I, we talked about,

I’m never gonna get over her. She’ll always be in my heart. I’ll always see her and my kids

I’m always gonna have memories of her. And then

Jack said something that was, Very simple, very insightful, which was, and I can’t let that hold me back.

I can’t let that hold me back

because if I do, it’ll never be the right time. You know, if I just, if I’m just expecting that one day I’m gonna wake up and I’m not gonna,

Or miss her still being here. Still my wife, still the mother of my children still alive. It’ll never happen. I’m never gonna get over her.

I’ll never not wish for them.

So I’m, I have to learn to live with those feelings, those yearnings as I go forward. And I realize that I don’t want to wait

because I know that if I wait, I might miss out on something. Great.

Something really great.

Chloe, did something happen between you and Stephan? He didn’t cheat on you, did he? No, no. It’s, it’s nothing like that. Uh, actually, he, he wants to give us a chance of being together. , I guess I, I just don’t know if he truly knows what he wants.

Is that your phone? No, I thought it was yours. Oh. Um,

landlord . I keep saying who even has these anymore Damara residents. Statesville Prison. Sure. I’ll accept the call.

Vivian Alama, why are you calling?

So you brought. Yes. And you had him work on me. I had him fix you, and, and it was intense, which is maybe why you’re confused right now. But just look, look at me and just tell me what you feel right now. I, I.

I feel like I love you

I

to protect me over your relationship with your father. Are you crazy?

I’ve been called worse. Please the world to you. So do you.

I love you big knob. I mean, don’t you get that?

I suppose though, what is crazy is all that I’ve done for you is no hope of it ever menting to anything. And that’s because you are in love with Sarah and I know that eventually she will forgive you all your trespasses and you will probably pick up right where you left off and I will just be left with heartbreak for my troubles.

But that’s fine.

I’m still happy I did it and I would do it again if I needed to. Cause that is how much I care about. You think Sarah and I are gonna patch things up

if history is any indication? Well, she left not long ago. We should get her back here. She can show you the divorce papers I just signed.

Nope, not. Not blaming what? Come on, Sarah. You know, any minute Alexander’s gonna come walking through that door with a bottle of bubbly thanking me for forcing you to give him another chance. Yeah, Bonnie, trust me, that is never gonna happen. Hmm. Why not? Because I went to go see Xander like you urged me to do, and I walked in on him and g.

But, uh, locked in on him and as in. No, I mean, not walked in him as in, but they were both soaking wet and she was wearing his shirt. He swore to me that nothing would ever happen between them. And you know what? That’s not even the reason that we can’t be together. We can’t be together because he and I we’re just, we’re too incompatible in so many ways.

And look, I will admit the. Bad boy thing was part of the reason that attracted me to him, but that was because it was fun and and exciting. Now it’s, it’s scary and, and it’s unsettling. I can’t handle it anymore. So Justin dripped these papers and I got Xander to sign them once I signed them. It’ll be over for good when hell freezes over.

So let me get this straight. You think you and I have a shot at something? Excuse me. Great. I guess this was a mistake. A mistake you think, and yet it was only a short time ago that you told me in no uncertain terms that you weren’t ready, that it was too soon. Yeah, I said that, and that is why I gave into Alex, who was relentless about us getting together.

And now you’re telling me I didn’t have to shoot. You’re mad. I’m, I’m. It could have been you and me this whole time. If only you’d known, but you didn’t, did you all this just suddenly hit you tonight? Well, do you know what I have to say to that? What? Thank God you didn’t. Wait another minute.

Vivian slowed down. Your son Stephanie is where? With whom? Vivian, I am not following you. You know Chloe is here. Does she know what this is about? Okay. Chloe, she wants to talk to you.

Vivian, what? What’s going on? Oh my. Gabby has stuff in captive downstairs in the secret room.

Did did you just say you love me? You’re not lying. You really love me, love you. Want you, oh my God. These feelings. You’re just rushing through my body. I can’t imagine how I felt any other. It worked. I can’t believe it worked right? I dunno if it really worked. It’s possible that he may be faking. Is is it true?

What? Saying it. Are you faking it? Do you still hate me? No. Gabby, I can never hate you. I know I said it before, but it bears repeating. I love you with all in my.

I wanna believe that more than more than you know. But how do I know you’re not lying? Kiss me. Kiss me and find out.

Bonnie, this is silly. Just give those back. You’re rushing things. I am not rushing things when it comes to Xander, so please just give me those back so I can finalize my divorce. No, you need to think about this buddy. Give those to me right now. Back off. Stop this. Arm. I rip these to shreds and eat every bite.

Pulled out all the starts with Sarah. Tried to make her see how much she means to me. I can’t lose her. Tried to make her reconsidered reminder why she was attracted to me in the first place because I do. Things like the occasional kidnapping. So she likes that you are a bad boy. Apparently there are limits and I have exceeded them.

So she’s done. She doesn’t wanna be married to me anymore, so Sarah and I are over. Good this time,

hunter, I’m really.

What’s wrong? I thought I heard something. I dunno. Did you? No, I was probably nothing.

So what do you think? That felt real and great. . Oh, Gabby, I am sorry I treated you so terribly, but that wasn’t me. That wasn’t the real. Me. I look at you now and I I see my precious, beautiful life. So perfect for me. And I I love you. I love you so much. You believe me now, don’t you? I believe you. I believe you.

Get away from him. What the hell? What the hell is right? I just talked to Vivian. You’ve taken Step in prisoner. Oh, you’re too late. Step Love meet you. You right Kevin. I do love you. But what I,

I love you too,

Alex. How did it go? Did you like the flowers? Did you like the letter? Uh, I think you can guess how it went since here I am alone, which is more than I can say for Stephanie.

You okay?

God, I need to get back in shape. I think I, my, my, my heart’s beating so hard.

I’m just really relieved that you’re so, um.

So what, just follow, receptive, you know, to everything. And I, I, I know that I’ve, I’ve done a complete 180 about everything since I had that talk with Jack. Oh, I’m very glad you had that talk. Yeah, thank you. I just know, you know, you’re going through so much right now. Dealing with the loss of your mother, and, and I know that you’re, you know, you’re helping your father and your brothers plan everything.

I, I, I should go. All right. I, I’m gonna go, what? Yeah. You know, and then I’m just gonna give you some space, and then in a week or two when things have settled down a little bit, maybe you and I can pick up where we left off. Yeah. Um, That talk you had with Jack sounds to me like part of what he said didn’t get through to you.

What do you mean? Didn’t he say that there’s never going to be a right time? Yeah.

Hey, second. Hey, listen, you don’t know what you’re saying, okay? You don’t. You don’t love Chloe anymore. Dr. Vall fix you. It’s, it’s me you love. I do love you, Gabby. Okay, great. Now, now, thank. How do you feel about Chloe? I love her too. Oh my God know. I know what’s going on here. You undo his feelings for Chloe.

He had no feelings for her. When we finally got together, you need to finish where you started. I’m sorry. There’s nothing I can do, I’m afraid. Stefan’s current state of mind is. Immutable. No, no.

Fine. I’m not sorry that Sarah moved on from you. I mean, why should I be? Because you claim to care about me. My soon-to-be ex-wife thinks I’m the coming of the earth. Yes, I do. I do. I do care about you and I don’t want you to get hurt, but at the same time, you prefer me unattached

and. Well, the divorce papers I just sign say different. I’ll tell you. Oh, papers that might never be filed or papers that might be ripped in the papers will be filed. Gwen Fireplace, it doesn’t matter. There might be just a hiccup here happening. It might just be a bump in the road. I mean, you and Sarah, you’ll make up and Sarah might have regrets or you’ll do something really romantic and lovely and that will just leave me.

I am Nicole. Exactly. Quinn, listen to me and you listen. Good. Okay. Sarah and I are totally irrevocably over. I’m not just talking about her feelings, I’m talking about mine. I mean, why I don’t want to be with somebody who’s just always moving the goalposts. I want a bad boy, but he can’t be too bad. I love you so much, but not enough to forgive you for something you did.

Even if it was for my own good. I, all I wanted was to give the woman the kind of life I felt she deserved, and how did she thank me? She hers insults at me in files for divorce.

Who instead of throwing me under the bus, like I so richly deserve, you

throw away a chance of a relationship with your dad and for what? You had no guarantee that that’d get you anywhere with me. You only did it because you care, because you have faith in me. Because you don’t judge.

Show you that

I know that you think that you’re being a good. And that this is helpful, but it is anything. But in fact, it is making me very upset, as you can see. Yeah. Well, you’re gonna be even more upset if you file these papers and then one day wake up maybe tomorrow and regret this with every cell of your being.

The only thing that I regret is getting involved with Sandra in the first place. Ronnie, if you rip up those. I’m just gonna call Justin and have him drop another set, and then I will take those to Xander and have him sign them again. So yes, you can delay this whole thing with your shenanigans, but you cannot stop it.

So why interfere in my life thus infuriating me when you can just do the respectful and dignified thing and hand me those papers first.

So Chad was with Stephanie when you arrived? Yes. The door was open and I saw them together. Together like, like I saw them together. Ellie, I saw them kissing. Alex, I’m so sorry. Me. Me too. Me. But mostly Allie, I am sorry because I feel like the biggest idiot who has ever lived turning off her phone when Chad was trying to reach her.

I mean, I, I, I’ve done some selfish, stupid things in my life, but this is by far the stupidest, most selfish of all time. Okay? Seriously, there’s no way that you could have not, it doesn’t matter. Whatever. I, whether I knew it or I didn’t know what Allie, what I did was wrong. I did it for the wrong reasons, and I’m gonna end up regretting that for the rest of my life.

It’s pathetic. Allie.

I just pushed the woman of my dreams into the arms of another man.

How you, um, no more doubts, no more hesitations. And if you were about to ask me if I’m sure. This is my.

You,

you realize you’ve lost every. You find for where has it been? What will it take to be happy kin,

your second chance is your fault or your fifth. You kinda lose track when life gives you. Her tonight will make your head spill. Is that what it takes to be happy?

Don’t give up the fight. The hope.

The love of your life may be,

your life may

call out the name that you hear in. Then take ride in the way back

time to say

the.

Is right here.

The love of your life might be dust.

To be.

Alex, the last thing that you are is pathetic. And hey, maybe the kiss that you saw between Chad and Stephanie, maybe it was a goodbye kiss. Thank you for trying, Ellie. But no, it was not a goodbye kiss. And can we please just not talk about this anymore? Please. Please. Okay. Okay. Sorry, I just, I hate to see you hurting.

Thank you, but I will survive. What about you? What’s going on? Surprised to see her at the square. So Lane? Yeah, I just have to come back. I left something at the bakery. Ah, so that means you haven’t heard from Chanel? Haven’t seen her. Nope. I’ve got no idea where we stand. But I feel like if I had gone to see her, I probably would’ve witnessed something similar to what you did.

You mean with Johnny? Yeah. Or someone. It could have been literally someone just met. I don’t know. Chanel is very friendly. She likes to flirt a lot. That would be the hurt talking. Yeah, I know. I know. I’m hurt. Aren’t we the pair? Mm.

You wanna grab a drink? I thought you’d never ask

Oh, damn, I forgot the flowers. , I don’t need flowers. No, no. But when you showed up at my door, anyone I did need.

Chad, your feelings must be all over the place right now.

Yeah, they are.

I promise you. I’m exactly where I.

thank you. I’ll have, you know, I was standing up for true love.

I get it, but because as it turns out, true love wasn’t what X felt for me, or he wouldn’t have behaved so despicably or disloyal. I am going to sit here.

Do you still tap?

It’s not you. I don’t. It’s just that

I find it so hard to believe that something I, I want so badly. It’s actually within reach. It wasn’t within the range. He’s here. Gwe, I’m here. That’s what’s so hard to believe since. I mean, I’m not at all used to things working out for me, so I might have noticed nothing ever works out for me either.

Maybe that’s why we’re supposed to be together. So now why don’t we see if we can finally make something work out for ourselves?

Immutable my ass. Nothing is immutable. Not even death. You’ve proven that you gotta do something about this. I’m sorry, Gabriela. I can’t knock myself. New equipment. Come on. Let’s get you untied so we can figure this out. Figure th there’s nothing to figure out. I’m in love with the two most beautiful women in the world.

How lucky am I?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey, Steph. It’s me, a k, a, the jackass. Look, I know I don’t have the right to ask you for anything, but could you maybe just give me a chance to make this up to you? I’m talking groveling here. You and I had something so great going and I don’t want to give up on that. That’s all I wanted to say.

You’re right, Alex. There’s nothing left to say.

Hello, Alex. Hey, this price. Something I can do for you. I was looking for your father. My defense team could use another lawyer and I, I know he’s one of the very best. He is one of the best. Unfortunately he’s not here right now. No. I see. Um, as long as I’m here, um, put those man toys down and put on a shirt.

I’m gonna give you a piece of my mind.

Jack, you’re home. Hi. Hello. We’ve missed you. The kids are gonna be so happy to see you. What’s up? Is everything okay? No, I just cut Gwen outta my life for good. So if I understand you correctly, you chose Xander over your job, your home, and your relationship with your father.

You understand correctly? I don’t get me wrong, as you know, I find the man highly pleasurable to look at in that accent to die for. But is he really worth sacrificing everything else that matters to you? Especially when he’s still very much in love with his wife force papers. Just sign them, Xander. No, I will sir.

I still love. I love you. It’s all my heart. And don’t fight me on this. Just do the right thing for once. Let me go.

Voila. Our one and only genius Deprogrammer, doctor Roe, I told you I would find him stuff in and now he can put you back to the way you were before. When I was the only woman you loved

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

You asked her to do the right thing. She just refused. No. Jen, I told her that she didn’t testify against Sandra. I not only kick her out of this house, fire her from the spectator, but I’d essentially sonner and she still chose to cover for Xander. I never thought she’d define me like that, but she did.

She walked out the door

and now I’ve lost both my daughters. But you and your dad, you’ve gotten so close. We have and yet, and yeah.

Well, you very well known. When I first came to Salem, I, I wanted to destroy his family.

I was so angry at him for throwing me away. I devoted myself to getting revenge and I did terrible things to Jennifer advocate.

Yet my father, he was so guilty when he learned that Laura had sent my mother away without telling him that I existed, that he still, he still found in his heart to try and have a relationship with me. So it was all out of guilt, you mean? Of course. I mean, that’s how he was able to be so kind. So forgiving and how did I reward him By giving him trouble.

At every turn, you are being awfully hard on yourself. Connie, come on, Matt know it’s true now. I can’t seem to break that pattern. How hurting him, disappointing him.

You know, this last time he was so upset with me that I just accepted the fact that he would probably be better without me in his life because I love him

so much.

I decided to just do the unselfish thing and let him go,

which is what I ultimately had to do with Santa Sarah, please just. Just gimme a chance to try and explain to you what you thought you walked in on the other, what I thought I walked in on. I know what I saw. You were here with Gwen and you were both half naked. Yeah, but that was only cuz I was trying to drown my sorrows and cheap scotch and I got so sashed that Gwen had to shove me under the shower to sober me up and we both got a little wet and had to change clothes and, and nothing.

So there’s absolutely nothing romantic going on. So God’s honest truth. I’m begging you to believe. Please. Okay. I don’t understand. I thought Dr. Rolf was Mia that no one had seen or heard from him since he left Jakarta. Well, turns out Lee new is another thing he lied to me about. He’s been bankrolling Rolf the entire time.

Not completely. I never seize a Petri dishes. I specifically requested how, which is why our genie brainwashing slash. De programmer over here was headed to Salem to make sure that Lee followed through on his promises. Okay, and just how is it that you’re privy to all this information? Well, I figured that I would find something incriminating in Lee’s hotel room, so I made up a story that I wanted to get back together with him.

He let me in the room and I was able to find his burner phone, which then gave me Dr. Ball’s number, but Rolf is already on the way over here. It seems that fate wants us to be together.

It doesn’t matter if, I believe you are not

we’re here. When you came here the other night and you saw I’m going night together, you said it was a mistake coming here, but you never said why you came here in the first place. I came because,

nevermind, forget it.

It wasn’t to bring the divorce papers, was it?

No, it wasn’t.

Justin and Bonnie convinced me to give you another chance. But then you changed your mind because you saw Gwen now together. But as you know, that was all just a huge misunderstanding. There’s, there’s absolutely no reason not to give me another shot.

Let’s be real Gwe. You didn’t walk away from your father out of love and concern for him. You did it because you can’t quit Xander. You know? That’s the reason. Yes. Okay. That did enter my decision. Oh, Mattie, I know that you want me to testify against Sander and cut a deal and get us both off. And believe me, I was quite tempted when my father urged me to do so.

So yield to temptation. So what? Isand Falls’ heels in prison for a couple of years. You’ll still have your relationship with your father, Mattie. It could be so much more than just a few years. If they charged Sandra for Susan’s death, he could go to prison for the rest of his life. And the thought of that just, it was too painful for me.

I just couldn’t do it. And I realized that as, as much as I tried to tell myself to just let him go, as much as I told myself that we are just,

you’re right.

I just. I can’t give up on him,

and that’s because I’m still in love with him. Even if he doesn’t love me back.

I gave GU so many chances because God knows my family gave them to me. But Abigail went through such hell because of her. I blame myself for that.

Blame myself too. I believed Gwen’s lives. I doubted Abby’s commitment to our marriage, and then I betrayed her. No, you worked through all that. Chad, you and Aga worked through all that, and when you did, after you did, I’m telling you, you made her so happy.

I wish I could keep doing that. Make her happy. She made me happier than I could have ever dreamed. I think I, um, I’ve persuaded myself that Abby would want me to live my life without her. She wouldn’t want me to wallow when God knows I, I, uh, I did. I I do. But

for the kids’ sake, you know, I just have to be strong at least in front of them. You have been strong, Chad. You’ve been strong and you’ve helped keep your mother’s memory alive and you’re letting them experience joy, just daily joy. I gotta tell you, Charlotte was so excited talking about going skating with you and, and Stephanie.

It was, that was a good thing.

Chad, you deserve to have more good days. I don’t want to, I don’t wanna be presumptuous or overstepping or anything, but

you have a lot more to give. You do. You’re a good man. You’re a good person. You’re kind. And I, and I hope, I hope you find love again. And I think, I think Abi going through the same way.

We are gathered here today in the memory of my precious mother, Dr. Kayla Brady Johnson,

so that together we may acknowledge and share both our joy in the gift that her life was to us and the pain that are passing springs.

If I’d had the chance to say goodbye to her,

I would’ve told her that.

I didn’t expect you to get back home so soon. Yeah.

Joe and Trip are still at the hospital. They’re talking to somebody about, um, donating your mom’s,

your mom’s body is science. You know, she always wanted to be an organ donor, but now thanks to Kristen, we can’t even grant her her last wish.

I was, um, I was just writing her eulogy and most of what I type, I just end up deleting.

Well, I think, uh, the right words will come to you at the right time. Yeah. I just keep thinking about what I. Would’ve said if I’d been there, if I’d been at the hospital in time. Listen to me. You have to let go of that. Stephanie, your mother knew how much you loved her. I know, but I just, I wanted to say goodbye to her.

I sh I should have been there with her. No. Listen, baby. Please stop blaming yourself for that. It was not your fault. No. It was someone else’s. You want to give me a piece of your mind about Stephanie Johnson? I should have known that one. Look, I, I, I just want to let you know that I, she told me that you turned off her phone while you two were doing the, the whatever it is that you were doing, and so she lost her chance to give her final goodbye.

Say, Hadai Mama, I know. And Ms. Price, there is nothing you could say to me right now that Stephanie hasn’t already said. Oh. Oh, good. Good. You deserve every insult that she threw at you, cuz if she had no way to get you to the curb, I’ve got plenty of my own kicking to do that. And trust me, as much as you could possibly beat me up right now, I’m beating myself up more.

Okay. I know my brain was a bit scrambled at the time, but Ralph, I recall at your lab there was a ton of equipment. When you programmed me, there’s nothing down here, but cobwebs, wine and psychosis. That won’t be a problem. I stashed some of my equipment in the lab of tunnels, so set up may be a bit makeshift, but I will make it, uh, make it work.

I don’t want you to make it work. And what the hell? Why are you going along with this anyway? Because it’s what Stefano would want. You’re loving father and the boss of Dr. Rolf worshiped and adored. So the good doctor knows that the man that he was completely devoted to would never want his son just walking around.

Brainwash, get what you need. No foot raw.

I hate you. Not for long. And you know, once your real feelings from me, come back. You’re gonna thank me. I promise. I promise I won’t.

Uh, I can’t think about finding love again, Jack. Oh, and Abby still has my heart.

The showers will, you know,

I went to her grave site on Christmas Eve and I thought that she appeared to me. Just talk to me about how I should move on with my life. So you haven’t been thinking about the idea? No, I wouldn’t say that. You just did. When you said that Abi talk to you, I believe that was your subconscious trying to give you permission to move on.

Cuz deep in your heart, you know that that’s what Abigail wanted to. So you and Stephanie have been growing closer? No. No, Stephanie, me. No, there’s nothing going on between me and Stephanie. It’s not in the way that, you mean.

I mean, there might have been,

but I, I put a stop to it cuz I, I realized I wasn’t ready and I didn’t know if I ever would be Stephanie. Understood. You know, she, she loved Abby too. So, so Stephanie’s willing to wait No. Until you’re ready. She’s willing. No, I told her that wouldn’t be fair. I’m not gonna hold her back. No. So she moved on with, uh, with, um, Alex Carus.

Alex, it’s funny. Doesn’t seem like her type. Wow. You might not be after all they broke up. Well, maybe it is indeed the time for you to make your move.

I, I can’t believe I ever thought I loved that. Sure. I mean, Sarah Verman, anyone as self-consumed and narcissistic as Alex Kiki. Hey, I’m just so angry at him and I’m just as angry at myself forever trusting him. Baby, listen, I’m so sorry that happened to you, but I’m gonna say it again. Your mom knew how much you loved her, okay?

And at the end, she was at peace. She would want you to be at peace too

falling. It could be, if I had any idea why Chad was trying to reach share, my God, this price, I would’ve never turned her phone off. I just thought this guy was looking for another reason to interrupt us. Not that that’s any excuse, because it’s not. It’s not. And that’s not what I’m trying to do. What I did was wrong.

I did it for the wrong reason. And I admit that, and I can’t take that back now, obviously. And honestly, I don’t think there’s even a way I can fix this. I don’t know if Stephanie would even let me. And I don’t expect you to understand what it’s like to make a mistake. This’s terrible one that just causes so much damn hurt.

Oh, I know exactly what it’s like. Look, you know, I wish you would turn on Xander. I mean, how could I not? Since it would get both of us out of this pickle. But I get that you still love him, which makes it impossible for you to Well, you’d pretty much be ruining his life. Yeah, I would be. And like you said, I just can’t, it’s impossible.

Even if I know that it won’t work out for the two of us, why not? I know he still loves you too. He just loves Sarah more, but she wants nothing to do with him. And if we’re being totally honest here, based on what he told me while he was threatening my life, um, I think he might be giving up on Sarah.

Every time I give you another chance, you make me a regret it, and then you ask me for another one. I Right. Next time I promise. No, you won’t because I’m done.

Maybe nothing happened between you and Gwen, but you two have a connection that you and I don’t. What are you talking about? You woman? I love loved Gwen too.

And even after she helped

having kidnapped, and even though she fried my brain, you went out and did capers with her. I mean, I know. I shouldn’t be surprised because if you need help kidnapping someone who, who else would you turn to? But then, and you lied. Oh my God, you lied and you lied. I’m just so sorry, sir.

Sorry. Won. Cut it. Not this time.

Look, I know that you didn’t mean for anybody to get hurt, but

you kidnap people. Xander,

Susan is dead. Bonnie is traumatized for life.

So please don’t make me say this again. It’s the last time I’m gonna say it.

You are not the man that I fell in love with. And I don’t wanna be married to you anymore.

I remember our life together, Gabby. It wasn’t all flowers and hearts. It was far from it. It was at the end. It’s just before I lost you. That’s, that’s what makes this so devastating. Things are wonderful between us before and, and I know that you’ve had these feelings come back to you. I know that you have those feelings can’t stay buried forever.

Okay? If you really believe that, then why not just let the feelings resurface on their own? Huh? Why make me be a Guinea pig in another one of roll stupid experiments?

Oh, good God. Does this guy even know what he’s doing? There will be a bit of improvisation involved. And I have to warn you, there are always risks for anybody expanding the course of science. I’m sorry. Risks. Risks. Did you hear that? Huh? You let this lunatic poke around in my brain knowing that there are risks involved.

You just admitted it. Calm down. R Ralph. Risks. What kind of risk can we talk about here? Oh, so usual. Amnesia, aphasia, ag, agnosia, death. What? What? I sense some doubt. Hmm. Um, so it’s up to you. Mr. Hernandez. Do you still want me to go through with the procedure?

What exactly did Zander say about Sarah? He was a drunken mess. He probably won’t remember much himself, but in vodka veritas, technically it was scotch, but you get the idea. Anyway, once he was done almost throttling me to death, he told me he pretty much lost Sarah. Well, that doesn’t mean that he’s ready to give up on Ha Guinevere.

He, he’s sitting in his room drunk, vulnerable, half naked. If it were me, I would skedaddle on over there and let him know about the sacrifice you have made to save his fine, fine ass. And if you play cards right, you may have a piece of that ass before the night is over.

I have to hire a lawyer of my own. Look these over it’s boiler plate, Xander. It’s basically a form. There’s no assets to divide up. You don’t have anything of value. And unless you’re planning to ask for alimony from my meager salary, of course not. And quit stalling and just, and just sign the papers, please.

Oh God. I tried so hard not to let you down. Don’t do that. Don’t you dare try to put this on me. I wasn’t, none of this had to happen. None of it. I am a doctor for God’s sake. My mom was offering to give us money to tie us over until I was off probation and making my full salary. But you, you wouldn’t take her support because of your ego.

I never once made you feel inadequate. I never once asked for you to support me. You could work at Buddy’s Burger Barn for all I care. All I ever wanted was to be with the man that I love. And who is that? The man I thought you were. Well, don’t give me that. She knew exactly who I was when you married me.

I mean, sure. Yeah. Every now and then I’d try and turn over a new leaf, but it never worked, did it? I always failed. As you keep reminding me and you, you admitted part of what drew you to me in the first place was that was a bad boy, that you were drawn to the side of me. That breaks the rules. That is the man you fell in love with.

You know? It’s true. Can you find Yes.

When I was around your age, I gave up my baby girl, Milani. I sent her to my sister to raise her own. I did it to protect her. I thought it was the only choice I had at the time, and when it was done, oh, I realized that I had changed the lives of everyone I loved. I couldn’t undo it. My daughter and I, we had lost so much time together.

I’m sorry.

Lonnie was a grown woman by the time the truth came out and when it did it, it was ever a bit as ugly and traumatic as you’d imagine. But in the end, much to my amazement and with profound gratitude, I, my precious daughter, she was able to forgive me. Wow, that’s really good to hear. It makes me happy.

actually gives me a little bit of hope. Maybe one day Stephanie will amaze me too.

I know you’re probably not hungry, but Mom would be so mad if she knew you weren’t taking care of yourself. You see, I’m just like her. Isn’t that why you call me a little sweetness? Yeah. As much as I know you hate it, . Yeah. Well my feelings about that have changed.

I wanna be like her now. Just like her. I wanna help people like she did. I wanna, I wanna lift people’s spirits like she did. You do baby girl. Just by being, you sure do lift my spirits and I am so proud of you.

I can’t make a move right now. That wouldn’t be fair to Stephanie or anyone else. I, I’m, nah, I can’t get involved in a relationship. You miss out, Miguel. Of course you do. You always will.

Sad.

There’s never gonna be a right time.

There’s never gonna be the, the time when you say, I am ready to take that next step. And maybe I’m, I’m overstepping here, but

you have to take it. And it doesn’t mean the memories of Abigail are gonna be any less, any less important. It doesn’t mean that you’re gonna love her any less. It just means that you’re gonna find room in your heart. It’s gonna grow. So there’s space for you to live the full life that you deserve,

that Abigail would want you to have.

God Rolfe, you didn’t tell me that deprogramming could kill him. You didn’t ask. That’s a risk of him suffering. A severe side effect is approximately 0.12%. Negligible ne, my life is not negligible, Rolf, and I am not willing to risk. Okay, well you just went out in the tunnels and you found a bunch of tubes and wires and put ’em together on your little train and wheeled it back in here to poke around in my brain.

Not I elbow, not I ear. Not my little pinky in my brain. And face it. You don’t know what the hell you’re doing. , are you questioning my genius? I’m questioning your sanity, which is why I’m not letting you lay a finger on me, Gabby. Come on. I like the odds. Just do it wrong. You psychotic. Selfish bitch. How somebody in?

We’re gonna need to. Alright, we are ready to begin.

Alex, I see you’re suffering. Mm-hmm. I sure know what that feels like too. But I don’t have a crystal ball, honey. It’s not for me to say if Stephanie might ever forgive you. Right. I guess that would be a rhetorical question. And really the whole thing is just moot right now because I can’t even get her to talk to me.

I call her, I leave her messages. She doesn’t respond. Messages, huh? I guess you mean her. Texting and tweeting and tics and talks, and however the hell less that You young people now talk to each other. Yeah. You know, here’s what I think, and not that you ask now, I think you, you, the younger generation, y’all need to stop hiding behind a screen if you think that’s the way to get through through each other, because it’s not, you need to, you need to be with the person in the flesh so they can you see your face, look in your eyes.

Maybe even take them into your arms if you have something important to say. Especially if it’s an apology. Yeah.

Tell your father, you know, I said bye. Have him gimme a call. I will. Hey, thank you Ms. Press.

I’ll put it back in the fridge. Maybe we’ll have a little appetite later on. Yeah, I’ll, uh, I’ll take the container back to Roman. Okay. Well, before you do at least have a few bites of the pie on Maid. What dessert before dinner. Mm-hmm. , your mother would not approve. Woo. She says you When mom was in med school and it was just the two of us, we used to eat pie for dinner every Friday night.

You’re kidding me. I’m totally serious. And she was the first one to put a piece on her plate and ladle on the whipped cream. God, I wish I could have seen that.

You know, your mom didn’t talk too much to me about that time. But I’m pretty sure the two of you got along just fine. Without me. It wasn’t fine, but we managed because you had each other. Because we had each other.

And now without her, I just, I don’t know, dad, I just, I don’t know.

Yeah. Okay. I’ll just turn up at Zander’s door with a smile and all my worldly goods. Mm. It might be a bit much. Tell you what, you’ve been working out the paper. You got some bucks to rub together. Why don’t I go over to the Salem End book us a room. Better yet a suite? No. Sweet. I can afford a room. A small one.

Two queen size beds. Twin. Twin beds, fine. Cheap scape. Okay, while I take care of our lodgings, you go over to Xander’s motel room and you claim your prize. Bit of a crass way to put it, don’t you think? Crass smash. He is a major prize and you are gonna win now go get him, girl.

I meant there’s an element of danger being with you that part of me liked.

I said I liked it with reservations. I thought that I could soften your rough edges, but instead the other way around happened. We changed each other, Sarah. That’s how love’s supposed to work, isn’t it? Yeah, but not when one person keeps lying to the other and commits crimes and betrays your trust. That is not how love works.

Here we go again. I mean, you lecture me on how I’m not good enough for you. Then you leave, but then you come back. Sarah,

I’m not coming back this time,

so you might as well.

Yeah,

dears. Stephanie, I know you have no reason to forgive me. But

Dad, we are going to get through this. Mom would never forgive us if we didn’t. You’re right about that.

And Dad, I’m sorry. I’ve been so wrapped up in my personal problems that I haven’t appreciated how lucky I’ve been. Not just in having mom for as long as I did, but finding that pie and the note from her. It was like, it was like she got to say goodbye to me even if I didn’t have the chance to say it to her.

That’s a beautiful way to look at it.

We are going to be okay. Because we have each other.

Yes, we do.

Hey, yeah. I, I think, I think maybe you should at least go and talk to Stephanie. I don’t know. I, I, um, she, she just lost her, her mother. I can’t just show up at her door and bear my shoulder. I disagree. I disagree. I think, I think maybe this is the exact time that she needs to hear from people who care about her shrink.

Oh. Years of therapy will do that to you.

I’ve just said so much loss lately. Abigail, Arlene, Kate, Kayla, I, I just think maybe we’re, we’re forgotten. That we’ve, we’ve gotta live as well as grieve, which is just, I guess, a common way of saying that Maybe, maybe if there is a, a connection between the two of you, between you and Stephanie, and maybe you, you should, you should explore it.

I know, I know Abigail loves Stephanie, and I know, I just think that she, she wouldn’t be all right with, with you finding out, seeing if you could get close to her. Who knows?

I think that’s what you want. And listen, whatever you decide,

it’s your choice. I will support you.

It’s time for you to remember when you first realized you were in love with Gabriela Hernandez, when you were locked up together in the Secret Room. I should have admitted it before now, but my pride, my ego wouldn’t let me do it. I am done with all that now. If we never get outta here, I’m not leaving anything unfinished.

That’s why I’m laying it all out on the line. I care for you. Get me Hernandez, and I’m done pretending. I don’t

it’s worth

what’s going on. The equipment. He’s a bit older than his.

Hi. Ah, watch where you’re going. Oh, I see Zander finally signing the papers. It’s none of your damn business.

You go Gwenny.

I, Steve, I’m so sorry my Kayla. I’m so sorry.

Ready or not. Steph, you’re right. Come. Are you, can you.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, oh no. Oh my God. No. Please don’t believe us. I’m so dying.

I didn’t get to tell her how much in loved. I don’t wanna die. I’m not here.

Yes, skip. Of course. I want you to hold the front page, this new expose on the sale and police department’s gonna send our online subscription. Soaring. Yes, I’m talking rampant corruption, gross incompetence, and personal benefits.

Skip. I’m gonna have to call you back. Yeah, right. Bye Dad. , I didn’t know you were coming in. It’s um, that’s really lovely to see you. Hi. I don’t suppose that you’ll feel that way when you find out why I’m here. Okay. I spoke to ra. I know what you did.

Oh, come on Nate. Well, you’re gluten for punishment. We all know you’re never gonna be good enough for Meg Ryan, so all you do is all a favor and just stop trying. We’ve never watched a romcom before.

Who is it?

This very bloody important.

Going somewhere I can explain. Uh, please do, because I’m having trouble falling along. You send me off to take a shower so we can consummate our marriage and when I come out, I find you sneaking outta my suite like a cat burglar. What’s going on here, Gabby?

No.

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

I must say Bonnie is a very understanding person. that she is Sarah, honey. Justin was just telling me that Bonnie convinced you to give Xandra another chance. Mm-hmm. , she did. Unfortunately, it didn’t stick. What? Yeah. I’m sorry to get your hopes up, mom, but stating my marriage to Xander is not in the cards.

Oh, no. What changed your mind? Oh man, I don’t know. I was probably finding my husband half naked with Gwen Rizk.

Can’t believe the police commissioner had to call you in Boston to disparage your daughter. Is it true? Did you help Sandra cover up some kidnapping spree? Is just trying to create cover for himself. I mean, is there any wonder why the Salem Police Department’s reputation is in the bloody toilet? If you ask me, Hey, I think he’s doing his both a favor, how do you figure he thought maybe your father could speak to you, took some sense into you, if that’s still possible.

What did the Fair Commissioner have to tell you then? Enough for me to know that you could be in serious trouble for not cooperating with the police? Is that what you told you, Gwen? What are you thinking? Sandra kidnapped two women when who ended up dead. Why are you trying to help him cover up his crimes?

Is that any way to treat the guy who saved your magnificent? Or have you forgotten how I dawned on that muscle bound clown suit? Oh, I thank you, Mr. Cook. I’d love to come in for a visit. Looks like I interrupted quite the party. What do you want? Well, for starters, I’d like for you to acknowledge what I did for you.

I guess you, you do, I do. Can owe you one, uh, more than one. Yeah. Yeah. Don’t rub it in. Yeah. Start with a drink. Have we given up on glasses? It’s come to that. Just trying to cut out the middle man. How? How the mighty have fallen to think that gorgeous temple of yours used to luxuriate on Egyptian cotton at Curios Mansion.

Sheets are overrated. So is my family. What are you doing? I wanted to give you a heads up concerning, I’m kind of, sort of testifying against you to a grand jury.

Well, isn’t it obvious why I’m leaving? Uh, no, it isn’t. Well, I’ve changed my mind in case you weren’t aware. It’s a woman’s prerogative to do so. You changed your mind about being with. That’s right. I don’t believe you. You don’t believe that I’ve changed my mind. I don’t believe that you had any intention of getting back together with me, let alone making love to me today.

That’s why’d you really come here. I don’t have to explain anything to you. Not after everything you did to me and Stephan, why the hell are you here, Gabby? I thought for a second that. Then I could forgive you, but after I was in this room waiting for you to get outta the shower, I realized how wrong I was.

I, I never could have been able to get past what you did to the only man I’ve ever loved. Goodbye. Hey, hey. You’re not walking outta here until you tell me what you’re up to. Let go with me. Pick none. Whatcha you doing? I’m get out. Go. Hey,

this why you came to my room.

This is a collect call from Statesville Prison. Do you accept?

Please help me understand why on earth would you cover for crimes?

Van was desperate. He is always desperate. Look, he was in terrible debt and he didn’t have enough money for a place to stay, so he took a job with Ava Vitali just to get back on his. And by job you mean kidnapping Susan Banks and ransoming her to EJ Damira. It was meant to be a simple transactions. Zer never meant for Susan to get hurt.

I’m sure that’s a comfort to ej who lost his mother and Johnny who lost his grandmother. Zander lets Susan go. Well that’s really swell of him, isn’t it? Tell me about Bonnie. She’s in his family. Oh God, dad, come on. It’s not like Bonnie’s some sort of a saint or she to your sister, and that’s supposed to make it what Sandra did.

Okay. I didn’t say that then. What are you saying after everything he’s done, Gwen, why are you still defending?

Is this some kind of junk? I’m afraid not. Butter. My lawyer thinks, telling the police what I know is my only chance of staying outta prison. You told a lawyer what I did. Well, yes, but it’s nothing to worry about. I, it’s privileged or whatever. Nothing to worry about. He says, after his barrister advises him to throw me under the bus and back repeatedly over the body, she thinks she can get me a generous plea deal.

Oh, bully for you. Well, look, I didn’t wanna testify against you, at least not at first, especially since I couldn’t do it anonymously. So you were hoping that you could ruin my life with without anyone discovering your planet. Yes. I’m trying to go a jet. Hey, this is because of my cousin Sonny, isn’t it? You were worried how he’d react if he learned that you helped me kidnap his stepmom.

He believed I’d changed. Huh? Why did you decide to wrap me up? Will Horton. If that messy little queen overheard me talking to my lawyer and told Sonny everything, so now it’s every man for himself.

This is what you were after, isn’t it? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’ve never seen that phone before. It’s my burner. Why would you need a burner phone? You know what? Don’t even answer that. It’s probably to make all your untraceable shading deals. I use it only to communicate with Dr. But I suspect you already knew that.

Oh, and looks like someone made an outgoing call to him while I was in the shower. Still wanna pretend like you’ve never seen this before?

I’m sorry, sir. I’m having trouble hearing you. You have a collect call from Statesville Prison. Will you accept? Hello? Yes, yes. Hello? Hello. Accept. I’ll accept. Hello. Who is this? Hello, son. It’s your mother.

Mother, you have no idea how happy I am to hear your voice . Is that so? Yes. My ex-wife, Gabby, she totally snapped. She locks me up in the secret room, in the Demer mansion. You need to send help. You have to. I don’t have to do anything. And why should I lift a finger to such an ungrateful son?

Admit a cab. You send me into the shower so you could snoop around and then you called Rolf on this phone. What if I did, you know? For a second. I actually started to believe you, but I should have known, you’ll never give up this obsession you have with Stephan. Never. Not until he’s back to himself. Not until I undo every single thing that you have done to him.

I talk to Ralph. Not only has he agreed to get Stephan back to how he was, but he’s on the way to Salem as we speak.

I can’t believe that Zander would take up with that awful Gwen again. Especially after what she put you through. I should have seen it coming. I just, I didn’t think it was gonna happen this soon. Are you sure that you didn’t misunderstand the situation? I look, Xander insisted that he could explain why they were in a state of undress.

But does it really matter? Of course it does. He’s just gonna be more excuses mom. And maybe he’s telling you the truth this time. Maybe he is telling me the. This time

seeing him like that with that woman, it, it just proved to me that I’m never going to be able to trust him again. You don’t think, you don’t think you’re being a little rash, rash, mom. I have given him so many chances. I know what I’m doing. Of course you do. But if even Bonnie was willing to give Xander another chance.

Surely you can too.

Dad, Sando was about to lose everything. His relationship with Justin, his freedom, his marriage to Sarah. So you created a fake company where he could pretend to work to cover his tracks.

Yes, that was dodgy. Yes, but Zander had told me that he was done working for Ava. He just wanted to prove to his family that he wasn’t a complete screw up. He certainly failed in that attempt, didn’t he? I know you’re disappointed in me, sweetheart. We have graduated from disappointed to disgusted about three schemes ago.

This is different how? Because I had nothing to do with Bonnie or Susan’s kidnapper. You are an accessory after the fact. I was helping a friend. No. Helping a friend is giving them a truck to move, not enabling them to cover multiple felonies. Okay? So it wasn’t the best judgment, it was the worst judgment.

And this happened over and over again. But you have a chance to salvage all of this. To make it right for me and all the people you’ve heard,

wow. Go to the police and tell them everything, you know, I can’t. I can’t do that to Zander. If I turn him in, I would lose him. Would you rather lose me?

Little Horton knows what I did. What the hell are you thinking? How was I supposed to know that little sneak was eavesdropping? What if he writes one of his exposes about me? Worse shit turns my tragic downfall into his next flick. For peacock, I could think of worse faces. I could see a Hemsworth doing you justice, which.

Not Chris. What are we even talking about? I don’t know. Hot Aussies, she was just trying to distract me from the situation at hand. Uh, relaxed cookie. You don’t have to worry about Wilhelmina. She wasn’t snooping in my life for a story then what was Will snooping about for? She wanted to get me out of Sunny’s life and you know what?

It worked. He wants nothing more to do with me. It’s because your shabby little love triangle blew up in your face. You’re gonna sell me out. Well, it’s nothing personal, big guy. I just have to look out for my own interests.

What if I offered you another incentive? What incentive?

I dunno. By opens negotiation. What are you proposing?

You’re making a mistake, Gabby. The only mistake I ever made was trusting a man like you and I’m out of here. You think you can keep me here against my will? I would never do something like that. Gabby. Smart man. And my brother’s just itching for a solid reason to lock your ass up. I don’t need to keep you here by force because I don’t think you really wanna leave.

Really? No, I really do wanna leave. But see, there’s a little part of you that must know you’re wasting your time with Stephan Damir. Part of you that knows how much better it is to be with a man who actually wants you, who understands what we can be together, you think it’s a waste of time to want my husband back.

Back to the way he was before you and your mad scientists were playing in his. It’s a waste because Stephan doesn’t want to love you. He keeps telling you over and over that you make him sick. He has no interest in being Deprogrammed who says I’m giving him a choice.

Mother, this is not the time for your macab sense of humor. Please do. I sound like I’m joking. I, I tell you that your son has been abducted by a crazy person and you’re not even the least bit concerned. Where was your concern for your grieving mother when you rose from the dead? How many months now? And you haven’t visited me even once.

Mother, I died. You’re right. I am sorry. It’s just that I’ve been busy. Yes. And yet you send your attorneys to have me sign your late brother Jake’s Tamira Enterprise’s proxy. Over to you. Plenty of time for that. Am I right?

Dad, what are you saying? Are you saying that you can’t forgive me for helping Zander?

I’ve lost track of all the things that I have given you for four, almost assuring I’m marriage to. Tormenting Abigail, the whole Sarah debacle.

I truly, truly am sorry for all of that. So you always say over and over and over again, I have accepted that I’ve believed in because I have wanted to believe so deeply in. I have risked my whole relationship with my family, my wife, my other kids. Because of you, you know how grateful I have to have you in my life.

If you are truly grateful for my love and support, you will stop doing the things that you’re doing. Do you have any idea the position that you have put me in by helping Xander? How are you involved? You are living in my wife’s family home. You are working at my newspaper. You have weaponized a spectator launching an attack on the Salem pd.

I swear I never meant for any of this to blow back at you, and yet it has, and this is what I don’t understand. Tommy, how can you go to such desperate lengths for a guy who’s in love with another? Because he’s still my friend, whether he loves Sarah or not. And actually he’s your friend too. Did you forget that?

No. No. I have not forgotten. He is my friend too, but I will not throw my life away for him.

When you gimme no choice,

what does that mean? That means.

I am ordering you to go down to the Salem PD right now, and you swear out a statement against Sandra or else

Mom. I know that you mean well, but my mind is made up. It’s over between Sandra. , once the trust is gone, there’s just, there’s nothing left. I’m very sorry to hear that. I know that you care about Tanner and I know that you were, you were rooting for us, but we were never gonna make it work. We’re just, we’re too incompatible.

Namely, I have a moral compass and he does not well from what I have witnessed, you made my cousin want to be a better. It’s like Maggie, as for Victor. Yeah. And Victor has done some truly terrible things in his lifetime, but even he has lines he won’t cross. I can’t say the same for Xander. I’m sorry. What is happening?

I go shy now. You know you want it. It, I can remember a timer getting means bed was at the very top of your. That was a long time ago. You don’t find me attractive anymore.

I do. You’re definitely still attractive. You told me that you have nothing to lose by testifying against me, so why don’t you let me show you what you have to gain by keeping that pretty little man shut.

Okay, mother, you are right. Okay. I have failed you miserably as a son. I’ve just been so distracted by everything I. I didn’t take the time out to think about the one person who loves me most in this world. And I am sorry, but look, I promise you, I promise if you get me outta here, I will do everything in my power to get you out of that hell of a prison you’re in and back here at home with me.

Where you belong, please, mother. Are you still there? Oh, I’m here. I’m just thinking about. About how you’d saved just about anything right now to get my help. Okay? Yes. I am desperate. I am, please. I am telling you the truth. Just please get me out of here. Mother, I’ll take it under consideration.

You aren’t giving stuff on a choice about the deprogramming. What do you mean by that? Uh, nothing. It’s just a figure of speech. A figure of speech. Yes. I was just trying to say that I’m never gonna give up on him. That’s not what it sounded like, Lee. I’m not like you and Kristen and ej. I would never take away Stefan’s free will, but you would hound and harass the guy despite him telling you over and over again that he’s not interested.

I’m never gonna try to stop convincing Stefan to fight for the life that we had together, and Dr. Rolf is gonna help me accomplish.

I’m be so sure about that. Gabby,

you are ordering me to go to the police. I mean, what are you gonna send me to my bedroom if I don’t comply? Take me in for a time. You can’t force me to do anything.

No, I can’t.

You know, sometimes I wonder if I could have been a father to you when you were a little girl. Perhaps I could have taught you the difference between right and wrong. Yeah. But you weren’t

all right. I wasn’t. And I will always regret that because it’s obvious that you don’t know the difference.

So here we are.

Here we are.

Like you say, Gwen, you’re a grown woman capable of making your own decisions, so the choice is yours.

Either you go to the police and tell them everything you know about Sandra to help in his prosecution, or oh,

or.

You are outta my life this time for good.

You would really have sex with me to stop me from testifying against you. Well, it’s not like we didn’t almost do it before, huh? Yeah. But that time you tricked me and hooked up with Sarah Horton instead, and Sarah’s gone. It’s just you and me.

We’re doing this now. Okay? Is this real? Oh, it’s very real. And this time I don’t have any tricks on my sleeve. I thought you happened. These, please. Yeah, I know that, son. Do you have a deal?

Yeah, definitely. We have a deal. Take me. Take me now.

I like it. Rough but safe for. Safe word.

You nasty. Little bomb feeder. What made you think you wal in here and threatened me with no repercussions? How is it threatening? Oh, no, she was just casually informing me. Then you intend to testify against me in court if you’ve forgotten who I am. This a storm from snapping your neck. Right. Maybe not wanting to add murder charges to your list of offenses, baby, I don’t care.

Already lost Sarah. Most people would say that she was my conscience. Don’t only thing keeping me from turning into the worst version of myself. Is this the worst version of you? Like you said, what have I gotta lose?

You, you keep away. Make no mistakes, doc. If you tell the cops, then you help me and we’ll make sure that you join Susan Banks in the afterlife. You understand perfectly.

Justin, you said yourself, Sarah makes Xander a better. , well, not good enough to keep him from kidnapping his wife. I went along with Bonnie’s decision to give Xander a second chance, but I don’t think I’ll ever be able to overlook what Xander did to Bonnie and Susan. I he, he’s not a bad person. No, but he does bad things at a certain point.

You just have to accept that that’s who he. I am really glad to hear you say that Maybe you could drop the divorce papers so soon. Mom, are you not listening to me? I am ready to move on from this marriage.

Justin, I can get the paperwork started right. Thank you. Uh, should be pretty straightforward. No kids. Not much in the way of marital assets. How soon do you want them? As soon as possible.

You would, you would cut me out of your life. If, if I don’t flip on. I couldn’t understand why you’d be skeptical after all the times that I have threatened to disown you only to to, to bring you right back into my life and into my heart for your dead time. I have to be No, no, you don’t, dad. No. We, we can, we can fix this.

I mean, h how is this different from an hit any other time? Losing Abigail has changed everything for me. Everything, my relationship to life, to family, to the preciousness of time. I wanna spend the time I have. Making Jennifer as happy as I can, honoring the legacy of my daughter, spending time with JJ and the grandkids.

I don’t want to lose you,

but I can’t keep dealing with the negativity and the drama that you bring.

I can’t. It’s too, it’s everything’s unsafe. So do the right thing. Go to Rafe, tell him everything you know, Alexander, or you will lose not only the roof of your head and your job at the Spectator, but me as a father, the choice is your.

What’s gonna be

No mother, please. There’s no time for you to think this over. You gotta get me out of this room. Okay. Before Gabby gets back, there’s no telling what she might do. Mother, please. I’m begging you. Just gimme mother. What did you just say mother? What the hell? Oh. Hi. Hi, Viv. Yes. This is your once and future daughter-in-law, Gabby Hernandez.

He said what? Always so dramatic. Yeah, no. I know that you’re upset that Stefan hasn’t come visit you, but you, he’s had plenty of time to take Chloe to, uh, New York for Christmas and Miami for New Year’s. Mother, can you hear me? Yes, exactly. Chloe Lane. No, I need to talk to, I know it’s really awful what she did to your beloved Philip.

It’s crazy because the Stephan that we both know and love would never treat us this way. She never liked you mother. You never liked her. You know, I’m just thinking that when Rolf brainwashed step to hate me and love Chloe, maybe he did something to make him stop caring for you too. It’s a lie. Mother.

You can’t believe her. No, no, no, no. Sleep. Okay. Sorry about that. Yeah. Oh, no, that was, um, no, that was nothing. Listen, you and I, we are on the same page. We want Stephan to be 100% in his right mind and no longer under Dara’s mind control. Yes. Once he’s deprogrammed, I, I will see to it myself that he visits you at least once a week.

Okay. Nice talking to you. What? Okay. Bye. In.

Nice try, but funny story. Mommy. Weirdest is team stabby. Ha, I’m telling you. Oh, that’s right, stabby live with it. Ha.

It’s leash shin. I have an assignment for you. I need you to make sure Dr. Wilhelm Rolf stays away from Salem permanently.

Thank you. I hope you’re not upset with me for agreeing to represent Sarah in this divorce. No, of course not. It’s what Sarah wants, but it’s not what you want. Oh, Justin, I learned a long time ago. You can give advice and you can be there for your tournament. In the end, you just have to. You have to step back and support their decisions.

Sarah is probably at the motel as we speak, breaking the news to Zander.

He loves her so much. You know, he’s not gonna take this well.

I swear to God, if that’s you, I am ready to commit murder. I am ready to. Sarah, I wasn’t expecting you. Uh, can I commit? Yeah, course. I just, I put some quotes. You don’t have to. I’ve seen it fall anyway. I won’t belong.

What’s this? Divorce papers. Our marriage is over. Zander.

Go here.

I thought you’d like to know. I’ve decided not to testify against Sander. Turns out telling the truth may be hazardous to my health. Hello? Well, that makes two of us. You decided not to turn on Zander today. I thought you’d already made up your mind not to cooperate with the police. Yeah, I did until my father turned up and gave me an ultimatum.

What kind? Ofum? The kind where I either testify against Sandra or he will disown me. Oh my God. And you chose Xander.

Looks like I’m on my own again. Jack made good on his threat. He kicked me out the house fired me from the spectator. He said I no longer have a father.

You trying to, if you scream, it goes back on

you’re insane. You know that. I’m determined there’s a difference. How many times do I need to tell you no matter what you do, I will not fall in love with you again. We’ll see about that. Oh, looks like we have a visitor.

All right. Now who’s down for a little deprogramming.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

won again. Are you sure you’re not letting me win? Why would I do that? I, uh, I don’t know. You know, my mom just went off the deep end and my stepmom just died, and I feel terrible about both those things. I’m not that good a person. Hmm. I always play to win. Oh, okay. Well then I will accept my victory and thank you for keeping me company all day.

I was happy to be here. You sure I saw you checking your phone every a few minutes? I was not. Hmm.

Okay. Maybe I thought I’d hear from Johnny. I am sure he is just busy with family stuff.

Are you kidding me right now, Courtney? Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt this special moment. Look, this is not what you think. Okay? Okay. So my brother and my girlfriend weren’t just about to cheat on me. No, Allie, take it easy. Okay. It was just a friendly hug. Well, this is the second time that I’ve caught the two of you getting cozy together.

Obviously something is going on and I would like to know.

Why do I let Chanel’s mom get to me time? Pauline is a formidable woman. All right. Just try not to let her get to you. Enjoy breakfast. Not only has she ruined my entire life, but she’s also ruined my pancakes. They’re ice cold. All right, let me warm up for you. No, that’s okay. I’m not even hungry. I mean, how can I eat after I have to deal with both Nicole and Paul in the same day?

Yeah. I’m really sorry. Things got outta hand between you and Nicole,

whatever. At least now she knows that you’ve moved on and hopefully she realizes that it’s time for her to do.

Nicole, what you doing? Whatcha doing me right?

Hey, are you home? I was hoping I could stop by really? I thought you said you couldn’t stand being in the same room as me. Well, I just had a little run in with Stephan and got ugly. Did he hurt you? No. No, nothing like that. I just just wanna talk. Is that all right? Of course. I’ll be waiting. Okay. See you soon.

Stephan, I’m gonna get you deprogrammed, whether you like it or not.

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

Hey. Hey. Thanks for bringing this by. Yeah. Special batch of chatter for you and the family. I’ll make sure Dad eats some. Yeah. Is uh, is he around? No, him and Steph just went to St. Luke’s to make arrangements, but they should be home soon. Okay. Oh, hi, I, I’m, uh, Roman Brady. I’m, uh, Tripp’s uncle. Oh, yeah. I’m, I’m sorry.

Uh, uncle Roman. This is Wendy Shin. Hi. Nice to meet. Uh, I’m so sorry to hear about your wife and your sister. Well, thank you. If I may, I met Dr. Johnson in Hong Kong and she was a tonal badass that she was. Yes. Uh, So what’s with Shiner kid? Uh, it’s just a weird thing at the park, but it’s all good now.

All right. Look, I’m telling you, there’s nothing going on between the two of us. And why are you here? I came over to see Wendy. Okay. And since she wasn’t here, you decided to throw yourself at Chanel. We were just talking and hugging. Do not forget that I, I wouldn’t cheat on you. Oh, no you wouldn’t because you admitted to me last night that you and Johnny almost kissed.

So how far would you have gone today? All right. Stop it, Allie. Yeah. I am glad that I stopped it by walking through that door because if I hadn’t, the two of you might be having sex on that couch right now.

Can I at least heat that up for you? That’s just gonna make them rubbery. Let me get you something else. How about my family’s famous clams Chowder for breakfast. Considering an early lunch, I mean, it will warm your soul and rain. Now your soul needs to warming up. It’s on the house. All right. You can’t say no.

I can never say no to you.

Well, I, I, I, I, I, I’ve, I don’t think this is a good idea. Ah, why the hell not? Well, for one thing, you’re still upset about Eric. Ah, please. I don’t care about Eric, and obviously he doesn’t care about me. He and Sloan are probably somewhere off doing it, like rabbits. This is what I’m talking about. Well, I’m talking about how slow, I’m like to rub this in my face, so I’m gonna rub this in her face.

I don’t think Sloane would care if you and I slept together. Hi. Now rub it near it’s face. Yeah, the whole goose scanner thing. Wait a minute, IOR. Oh, let’s just do this.

Okay. You sure you don’t want me to stick around? At least until your family comes back, I will be fine. Okay. You are officially relieved of your babysitting duties. I wasn’t babysitting. I actually like hanging out with you, even though I do have to occasionally throw the controller. You swear you aren’t letting me win.

I told you I’m not that generous. You on the other hand, you are a good guy. You did something nice earlier. What did I do? Oh, and Roman asked about your eye. You didn’t rat out Johnny. Yeah. Well my family’s going through enough. Like I said, he apologized, so we’re cool still. You probably saved him a lecturer.

Two from his grandfather. You didn’t have to. Okay. Yes, you’re right. I’m a hero. So you are gonna be sticking around Salem for a while? Yeah, I’m not sure. At least through the funeral. Well, if, uh, you ever need to talk or crush someone at two k. Feel free to hit me up. Thanks, Wendy. I appreciate it.

Will you stop overreacting right before you just walked in here? I was telling Chanel that I’m happy you two were together and I was telling Johnny I was happy he found Wendy. What you saw was just us wishing each other. Let’s just chill. Okay. Okay. Well maybe I could just chill. If the two of you hadn’t almost kissed last night, it was a dumb, impulsive moment and it will never happen again.

Why would I believe that? Because it’s the truth. All right, well, you stop. You’re getting yourself all worked up over nothing and all this jealousy you’re starting to sound like, like Mom, were you just about to say, I sound like Mom. I. You take that back right now. Why would I, you are acting exactly like her.

You’re jumping to conclusions, you’re throwing a tantrum. You’re making it all about you. Okay. Well, you know what? I think that you’re acting like your dad. How, uh, EJ makes moves on women who are already taken, like Aunt Bell or mom when she was race. Oh, all right. I am not making moves. Of course you are.

And just like your father, you don’t care about the relationships that you ruin as long as you get what you.

Nicole, Nicole, stop. Stop. Stop, stop, stop. What is the problem? A New year’s you avan us getting together. Yes. And you put the breaks on. Remember, you said you wanted to stop making impulsive decisions. Okay, well, it’s been almost a month, so there’s nothing impulsive about it. You made it very clear. That you weren’t ready.

Mm-hmm. . But now I am ready. Oh. Looks like you are too. . What? What? Why are you doing this? Hey, Jay, don’t you want me ? Of course. Of course I do.

Then why do you keep pulling? Because I don’t think you are in the right mind to make an informed decision. Why not? Common parlance my drunk is a skunk.

Hi, come on in. Thanks. Sorry, I’m kind of sweaty. I was, I was at the gym working off my frustration over getting fired. DJJ fired you? Yeah. Came by Bright and nerdly to do it in person. I guess that’s not surprising, but I’m sorry. Thank you. So what happened with Stefan? Well, I was at the Demir state, um, trying to convince Stefan yet again to get Deprogrammed.

You don’t give up to. No, it’s not in my nature. I mean, I tried to remind him of, you know, the love that we used to share, but he just doubled down and was calling me vicious names, telling me I’m a terrible person. Mm-hmm. . I hate that he’s doing that too. Thank you. Why you telling me all this? Gabby? Is it so you can yell at me again for brainwashing, Stephan, for turning him against you?

No, Lee, that’s not why I’m here. And why are you.

I am here to say that you’re right when it comes to Stephan, I’m wasting my time and the person that I should be with is you.

What did you say? You heard me? Okay, then I’m going off the rails and hurry. You don’t get to criticize my father when yours is in prison for kidnapping mom. Oh, you really think my dad has committed more crimes than yours? Oh, you better watch out Chanel if all starts to feel too insecure, she might have you kidnapped little.

Okay. That is enough. Stop it. Both of you. Did you hear what he just said to me? I heard what you both said, Johnny. And it’s time for you to go. Yeah, it’s fine by. If we tell Wendy that I stop by. Yeah. Okay. And I’ll make sure to tell her that when she wasn’t here. You hooked up with my girlfriend instead.

What?

Hm

mm. Seriously? You, you’ve never had cle char. It’s good. I mean, it’s substantial.

Are you saying you don’t like our famous chowder? Uh, no. I’m just saying that, um, warm milk and clams not really my thing. Okay. First of all, it’s just heavy cream. It sure is. Okay. You know what? I had completely judged your character. I don’t think we can be friends after this. Look, I’m not saying it’s not good chowder, you know, I’m just, I’m a little bit more of a chicken noodle.

Traditionalist chicken noodle. That’s it. Out out. I want you, Adam, you’re kicking me out into Yes, you can take your blasphemy over to Julie’s place and you and Paul. Y’all can enjoy your spongy little noodles and chicken cubes. I didn’t realize you took your chowder so seriously. Oh my God. Are you kidding me?

That is a famous Brady recipe. And if my father heard you despairing his moss chowder, oh my God. It’s like putting the knife to his heart. Well then I’m so glad that you’re gonna keep this between the two of us because I would hate for your dad to know that. Um, I actually kind of hate it. Yeah, you certain.

Good morning to hear that.

Excuse me. There is nothing skunky about me. No, but you are inebriated. Inebriated as in chimpanzee. I don’t get it. I’m not drunk. It’s a skunk and a drunk. With a monk. I understand. Okay. Like I can’t be drunk. I just had one measly mimosa and maybe teeny tiny champagne chaser. Tiny. And nevertheless, it has hit you pretty hard.

Oh, stop. I can find, see. Perfectly fine. Oh, oh God. Oh, oh, oh. The room. Spinning. I’m gonna be sick, Nicole.

I have to say, this is very surprising. The last time I saw you, you dumped a bucket of ice on my head. I was upset clearly. I mean, can you blame me after everything that you did? I suppose not, but Gabby, that doesn’t explain the sudden 180

after I calmed down, I, I thought about what you said and I wouldn’t have even bothered you if I didn’t feel like there was some sort of passion between us.

So you admitted.

I admit that I, I feel emotions around you. I feel them very strongly. You are right. You are right about a lot of things. Like what? You and I are the same. We, we both go to drastic measures for what we want and. Stephan would never love me the way that you do and that you and I belong together. You didn’t want to hear it.

I know, but that was then, and I mean, after everything that happened today, I, I can’t deny it. Gabby, what are you saying? I’m saying I need to give up on stuff and, and really give our marriage a try.

Nicole, how are we doing in there? You okay?

Oh, don’t, don’t look at me. Why? Because this is so embarrassing. There’s no reason to be embarrassed. Ah, yes. I, I practically jumps you in. You turn me down, and then I puked like a freshman at a frat party.

I’m flattered, you know, flatter that I threw up. I’m flatter that you wanted to be with me. Trust me, it was hard to turn you down and why did. Because you were too drunk to know what you were doing. Ah, this doesn’t make any sense. I mean, I only had a, a drink and a half. I mean, everyone knows I can hold my liquor.

You said you didn’t have breakfast. Yeah, but still I’m Nicole freaking walker, the goat. Even restaurants won’t serve me bottomless mimosas because I put ’em out of business. . Hey, even LeBron James has an off day. Yeah.

Unless, unless, unless something was wrong with the champagne. Maybe, but I had some and I’m fine.

And what happened to me,

Sloane? This is my dad. Dad, this is Sloane Peterson. Mr. Brady, it’s a pleasure to meet you, and I’m very sorry to hear about what happened to your wife. Thank you. I appreciate that. Even if. Do hate my chatter. Oh, first of all, let me just say I hate all Clem chowder. I’m not sure that’s helping. Uh, anyway, I’m extremely grateful for the hospitality, and I hope you don’t hold us against me.

Of course. Now what I do hold against you is the way you’ve gone after Paulina Price and retire. Dad is married to a carver who happens to be my best friend, which makes her family. There is nothing more important than me than family. I feel the same way, which is why I won’t stop until Paul and Chanel have both paid for their crimes.

They took my parents from me, and I’m not gonna stop until they’ve both been brought to Justice.

Wendy, I was not hooking up with Chanel. Allie just completely misread. You don’t need to explain yourself to me. You can do whatever you want.

You know, you’re right. You’re nothing like mom. Thanks, lassis.

Where are you going? To the office to do some work? Mm-hmm. I don’t think so. We are gonna talk this out. I’m not really in the mood. I thought you said you came home to work things out with me. Yeah. And then I saw you in my brother’s arms. I told you it was totally innocent. You knew that. I was really upset about the two of you Almost kissing last night.

Why would you think it’s okay to have him over and give him a hug for the ump? Empty time? Johnny and I are just friends. You have nothing to worry about. Yeah. That’s what. Hold up. You went to see Alex.

I missed you so much. I missed you too. Are are, are you serious about this? About giving our marriage a try? I’m gonna show you how serious I am.

The vows that we took to love each other for better or worse, I don’t take them lightly. So you’re giving up on Stephan? He gave up on, on me a long time ago. I just couldn’t see it. So am I The consolation of prize probably. I I loved you before Stephan came back, but yes, I had a hard time accepting it.

But the Stephen. That I used to love is gone for good, and I believe you. I believe that we can get back to where we used to be. I can’t believe this. How do we start? What’s our first step? Well, we never did consummate our marriage.

You wanna consummate our marriage. Now, I wanna feel close to you again. Every time we made love, we had this deep connection. Absolutely. And if we could get to being close like that again, it, it could go towards building our relationship. Don’t you agree? Y Yeah. I mean, This is incredible. Well then why are you hesitating, Gabby?

I, I, I just wanna make sure this is what you really want. This is what I want. I, I wanna make this a real marriage. I wanna commit. I’m ready to commit. Great. Well, you think you could do a little favor for me first? Anything. Well, you mentioned you went to the gym, so maybe you could take a shower first.

Yeah, I, I can handle that and uh, in the meantime I’ll get undressed please. Leo, you have no idea how you meet.

There has to be something in here that will get rough, and I know your loyalty is with Aen, his family, but this is a complicated situation. I’m not saying. Lost her mother because Chanel pushed her off a building. From what I understand, that was self-defense. Well, Chanel and her mother are lying about that.

ARD didn’t think so well. I believe that the American judicial system will come to a different conclusion. Yeah. Hebe told me that you are suing for wrongful death. That’s right. And I expect to be vindicated. Yeah. My advice would. Drop to vendetta and move on. Dad still has every right to pursue the case.

The hell she does, all she’s doing is causing more pain. Haven’t we all had enough of that? You know what I, um, I really don’t wanna get between the two of you and cause more attention, especially at a time like this. I think I’d better just go some we’re in the middle of a lunch date.

This is a client. It shouldn’t take long, but maybe it will give you and your dad a time to sort through some things.

Can’t you just give Sloan a chance? What? You two getting serious? No, but I like. What about Nicole? Nicole? Me. You’re over. All right, we moved on. I’ve heard that before. You sure this time?

Tea and toast. The over indulges Best friend. Oh, thank God. I thought you were gonna bring me more. Your mimas yucky hangover here. Hey, that cure works. Yeah. Even if it is a little bit disgusting. Hopefully this makes you feel better. No, it couldn’t make me feel worse. That’s the spirit.

Thank you. My pleasure. No, I mean. Thank you for being a gentleman earlier.

I can’t believe it means to fool myself. You didn’t. I did, but I, I want you to know ej, that not everything I said and did was because the alcohol.

I am sick of pining over.

Eric’s not the same person. I used to love Anna to move on, and if you’re willing,

I’d like to move on with you.

Wendy. Hey, I told you I don’t need you to explain anything. Okay. It’s not like we’re a couple. Yeah. Well, yeah, but I mean, we’re, we’re what we kissed on New Year’s Eve. We haven’t even gone on a date yet. So if you’re hooking up Chanel, I mean, that’s totally, I told you I’m not hooking up with Chanel, but Allie said this.

Yeah, Allie said what she said because she’s in a fight with Chan. She wanted to mess things up with you to hurt me, so there’s nothing going on with you and Chanel.

Look, I wanna be honest with you, okay, last night at the hospital. I almost kissed her. Okay, so, so let me get this straight. You were upset with me for hanging out with Johnny while at the same time you were being consoled by Alex Kikis, one of the biggest players in town. You and Johnny were married. Okay.

And you had sex with Alex? We both did. Well, maybe you decided that you didn’t wanna share ’em after all. Maybe you wanted to turn our threesome into a twosome. I had Henry with me. We were just. Yeah, like Johnny and I were just talking and I’m sorry. No offense, but you sound like a total hypocrite. I never had feelings for Alex.

Okay. I know that. I’m just trying to make a point, which is I trust you Horton, so why the hell can’t you trust me? I mean, I’m not the one who’s cheated before, before.

That was really unfair. Yes, I cheated on trip, but I cheated on trip with you because you and I are meant to be together. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that. No, you shouldn’t have. But I also shouldn’t have accused you of cheating with John.

Look, um, emotions are clearly running high right now and, um, maybe we should just stop before we say something that will regret, or something else that will regret. Yeah, so. Maybe we should take a little time apart.

Yeah, I think we could both use some space. I can go to my grandpa’s. No, no. Your family’s dealing with a lot right now. I’ll, uh, go pack a bag and I’ll go stand my. Okay, thanks.

You almost kissed your sister’s girl. . What does that mean? It means that we probably would have, if Fally didn’t walk in, oh gee, I wonder why your sister’s mad at you. It’s not like that. Okay. I was upset about my grandma Marlena Chanel was just comforting me. Oh. With her lips? No, I. I was the one who instigated it.

Right. Fuck. She used to be my wife. She used to be my wife. Okay. And in that moment, I, I, I don’t know. I guess I, I just, I needed to feel close to someone. Well, do you still have feelings for her? No. I mean, I’ll always care about her, you know, and if I’m being honest with myself, There’s probably something a little unresolved between us, but that doesn’t matter.

Seems like it does. No, it doesn’t because Chanel is committed to Allie and I, I really like you.

You do.

And if it’s all right with you, I’d really like to take you on that date. What do you say?

So what exactly it is moving on with me in town?

Do I really have to explain it to you? I mean, are we talking about a relationship or just a good old fashioned roll in the hay?

I dunno. Can we just figure it out as we go along? Of course. And for the record, I’m game fryer.

Because I have a feeling we’ve been down this road many times and to make a full on commitment, I dunno, it just would be a bit premature. Yeah, it was gonna say unwise . Agreed. So perhaps when you are feeling better, You and I can go out to dinner on a proper date, just the two of us. And see how things go from there.

I would love that. And it’s a date? Yes.

And would you just trust. When it comes to me and Nicole, the ship is sailed, doors has left the stable. Okay. Pick your cliche. It’s over. Well, I’m really sorry to hear that. No, no, no. Don’t be all right. It’s over. It’s time for us to both move on. Okay, Eric, but really, phone sit in the middle of an ugly battle with Paul Le and Chanel.

You know what? I really don’t want to talk about my love life. Right. How you doing? I’m hanging in. Well, how are things going? I mean, where are you at with the funeral arrangements? Well, I told you Kate didn’t want any fuss. Okay, so what about Aunt Kaylin and mom? Well, you can talk to John and Steven from what I understand.

There’s nothing more to do at this moment. I’m back. Hope I gave you guys enough time. Sore through things, definitely, and I will bring you out something less offensive to track

Well, don’t I just make fabulous first impressions.

I guess he wouldn’t risk contacting Ralph on his regular phone. He must have a burner around here somewhere.

I, let me see. Oh, he’s called this number a bunch of times. Must be.

Oh, hi. Yeah. Hi, Dr. Rolf. This is Gabby Hernandez. No, no, no. Do not hang up on me. I need your help and I’m not taking,

I’d really like to go out with you. You would. That’s great. That’s great. I’d really like to go out with. , but your life seems really complicated right now. I told you I’m not interested in Chanel. Not, no, it’s, it’s more than that. You’ve just lost both your grandmothers, you’ve got all this drama going on with your sister.

You, you should really be with your family right now. Okay. All right. Maybe you’re right. Maybe it’s not the ideal time to start a relationship, but is it ever maybe. I just, I wanna be sure we’re both in it for the right reasons.

Okay? Okay. How about this? All right, we both take some time. We, we, we, we take our time. I get to be with my family. We let the alley and Chanel thing cool off and then things are a little more settled down. I want to take you on that date.

Okay. I can live with that. Good. So we’re good? Yeah, we’re good.

Hey. Hey. So, uh, I was thinking that maybe you should. Take the next few days off from work too. Really? Yeah. You’re dealing with a lot with your grandma and your family needs you and you need them. Okay. If you’re sure we have enough coverage, I’m sure. Okay, thanks.

Well, uh, text me if you need anything. I.

Now this is more like it. I’m glad you’re finally satisfied. Hmm. I wouldn’t say satisfied. Okay. What’s the problem? Oh, there’s no problem. But, um, if you’d like to satisfy me, maybe you can come back to my place later tonight. That is, if you’re up for the challenge, always.

If you want, I can bring some.

Trust me, Rolf, if you do what I ask, you’ll be back in the good grace for Damaris and more importantly, your ass stays out of prison. Okay, so we have deal. Good. Now get to Salem asap.

Gabby, where are you going?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Look, like I said, Johnny, this really isn’t a good time. Yeah. Um, yeah. Okay. Uh, sorry to bother you. I will, um, see if I can track down Wendy at Damara. Fuck Chanel. If you want me to go, I’ll go. Okay. But I can see that you’re upset about something and we’re friends, right? We’re good friends, so if you wanna talk, we can talk about whatever bothering you.

Wouldn’t happen to have anything to do with my sister, would it? Maybe. So you guys didn’t patch things up? No, no. Last night when I got home, Alex was here with Allie and she, uh, she wanted to have another threesome.

Hey, how’s it going?

Sorry, am am I interrupting? I just thought that you know, Eric might want his phone back. I’m not surprised you left it at my place. We made quite the mess, didn’t we? I found it. Loft in a tangle of clothes and sheaths on my bed.

Woo. Hello? Is he around that guy? Nicole, you know what Sloan? You really are pathetic.

Hope you enjoy your little drinky j. Because after a few doses of this, you’re gonna start acting pretty strangely. In fact, your judgment’s gonna be so impaired that the Derion board will have no choice to remove you and I, for one can not. Wait,

I am so sorry that I had to do that, but plus me someday soon. You’re gonna thank me.

I thought it was grateful to the mountain, but well turns out here, the mountain

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

I am pathetic. Yeah. Because instead of handing Eric his phone discreetly you decided to broadcast it to not only me, but to every sale mite within a five mile radius. That you are a pathetic slut. Okay. What? Oh, I’m pathetic for enjoying and not feeling ashamed about my sex life. . Meanwhile, you’re out here throwing around very hurtful, antiquated slurs against women, real progressive.

Should I just go and call the town crier and tell ’em about my transgressions? You know what? I don’t care who you sleep with or how many who’s there are. Just have some class. Keep it to yourself. All right. Why don’t we just, you care very much about who I sleep with, Nicole. Oh, so much. Because this particular who happens to be you’re very handsome ex-husband.

The real question you should be asking yourself is why do I care? So Nicole, why is it because you still have the hots for Eric. Meanwhile, you’re out here drooling and panting over EJ Damira.

Oh, what did you have for breakfast? A bowling ball. Did you pull the champagne brother?

What the hell is going on here?

I just, what the hell do you think you’re doing it here? Easy. Just the person I wanted. Save your lies. It’s obvious what you’re doing in here. It. If you’re transparent, Gabby, I am. Yes. But I guarantee you Stefan will never submit to Deprogramming and you desperately sneaking into his home. Into my home to persuade him.

Otherwise will only result in you being charged with breaking an entry. I don’t think I broke anything regardless. Stephan’s feelings toward you were at one point ams, but that was a long time ago. And the sooner you give up on. Degrading enterprise That fine, fine. You got me. That’s exactly why I’m here.

Although I hardly think true love is a degrading enterprise. But what would you know about love more than you? I assure you. I also happen to be very well versed in the art of loathing present company included, and that’s all My brother feels toward you. Now, as one might say, I know it when I see it, and with Stephan, I see it.

He loaves you. I’m very, uh, aware of what he thinks. He feels about me. Thank you very much. You know, I don’t have to prove it to you or anybody else for that matter. What I know to be true and. A deep down beneath Wolf’s mind control manipulations. Your brother Stephan still loves me and we’re gonna be together again.

He’s gonna be mine forever.

bra, the performance. Well, you know what? Now if you excuse me, I’m gonna see myself out too. I don’t think. I’m not gonna have you wandering around these grounds unfettered and flip toward me gladly. As soon as I personally see you out the door myself. And we will be going through the front door, Joe.

Yeah, no, that sounds, that sounds lovely. I think she’d like that.

No. I can’t believe that we’re planning our funeral now. Yeah. Surreal. I know, dad. Thank you. I love you too.

Oh, oh. Bella, I was so sorry to hear about your mom. Thank you, Paulina. And I just spoke to my sister, Tammy earlier. Your your mom’s old college roommate. She’s devastated like all of us. She sends a love to you and to all your family.

What? You don’t have a gym in this mazz. Sadly we do not. Victor thinks exercise is a waste of time. He doesn’t like to break a sweat. I see. So what’s up? Surely you didn’t come by here to Just to watch me pump iron. Mm-hmm. Sorry for the blow. True ego, but no, I did not. Besides how would I even know that’s what you’d be doing?

Good point. Yeah. I came to drop by Henry off to see his uncle Will. But I’m actually really glad that I ran into you. I wanted to apologize. Apologize. For what happened last night at my place.

Another threesome. Oof. Yes. And uh, Allie wanted it to happen again. Yes, but the only reason she said that was because she wanted to get back at me because we almost. She was so upset with me, and then I tried to talk to her about it again, and then we got into this huge fight.

Oh, sweetheart, you don’t know anything about me or about me and ej. All right. Okay. All right. No, you’re right. I don’t, but as previously established before, I, I do happen to know Eric and rather intimately. And I know that he, he doesn’t want you, so I think it’s best for all parties involved. If you stop being so desperate, throwing yourself up.

All right. Oh God, it’s not the both of you. Oh

God. Eric, you know what? I know you’re craving and maybe that’s what’s affecting your judgment, but there is no excuse for the horrible person that you’ve become. And if you ever break whatever spell you’re under, I have no doubt that you will regret laying eyes or any other body part on her. She’s a lot, some awful bitch.

I’m really sorry about your mother.

Finally, peace, quiet.

Where did you disappear to? No, rather, I don’t blame you. If I had a happy like that stalking you. I disappeared too. Step I just, you can come out now.

Thanks. We do for love,

Allie with me. You are never going to have to apologize for offering up a threesome. That is my solemn vow. All right. Very funny, but I dragged you into a fight between me and Chanel. That wasn’t fair. Don’t worry about it Serious. , but keep me on the list for future invitations. Alex, come on,

Did you two make up after I left? To what? No, that’s the thing. We slept in separate beds and then we barely talked this morning. You know, when we did talk, it just led to another fight. Oh, it sucks. I’m sorry to hear that. Yeah, but I did get Chanel to admit one thing. She admitted that when I caught her and Johnny at the hospital.

They were about to kiss. Come on. You and I both know what happened at the hospital. Man. Nothing. Right? I, I, I was upset about my grandma Marlena, and you were just comforting me. Look, I told you, you should just let me talk to Allie. Don’t trust me. You are the last person Allie wants to see right now with me being the one possible exception.

I’m sorry, Chanel, I just, I couldn’t deny it anymore. And then Allie pushed me into a corner and then she forced me to admit that what she thought almost happened almost happened.

My family is here for your family. Anything we can do, please, please let us know. Alina, thank you so much. That means a lot. Well, I don’t wanna keep you. I should be going anywhere. I have to call my attorney who’s dealing with some frivolous litigation. Hello? Well, if you don’t mind me asking, who’s suing you?

Who else? Sloan Peterson. That’s sadistic. Little Wish has slapped me with the civil suit.

You sure you’re okay? Mm-hmm. . This, the blow that your ex gave was superficial, but I gave as good as I got. I’m totally necessary. I was bringing you your phone, Eric, and I appreciate it. Listen, how in return I buy you breakfast. Now you don’t have to do that. No strings attached. Just we are. I mean, I owe you for all the, the beer, the takeout, you know, the visits to your place.

So come on. What did you say? Fine, after today, I could use four.

I assume you went to the office. You okay? No, I’m not. Okay. How fool is what I am. Yeah. I went to see Eric to give him my condolences and, and tell him how sorry I was about his mother and, and then Sloan flew in on her broom bragging to everyone with an earshot that she slept with.

Yeah, Stephan pulled him so we could toast to him taking his place by my side as CO c e o Deir. Congratulations, Stephan. But he seems to have disappeared, so now you and I will toast to Sloane Peterson. Oh, there’s no way in Helen Toast that bitch. You didn’t let me finish. Take it

to Sloan for moving in on the holier than thou hypocrite Eric Brady and to you for moving on from set. Hypocrite. She deserves Soon you deserve better.

Both of them, Johnny and Chanel are sticking to their lame excuse that he was upset about my grandma and she was consoling him. Alex, I’m upset about my grandma too, but you don’t see me making out with the person standing right in front of me. Of course not. Like, I’m not going after Johnny’s girlfriend, but I also can’t cut my brother outta my life forever, especially with everything going on in our family right now.

But I also don’t wanna worry that he’s always gonna be chasing after my girlfriend, and I don’t wanna worry about Chanel betraying me.

That’s it. All right, I’m gonna go find Allie. I’m gonna talk to John. No, wait. Wait, I told you I don’t want you to do that. I know, I know. Okay. But this, this almost kiss, it meant nothing. And whatever something there was, it was on me. All right. Allie needs to know that she’s already used to the idea of me being an insensitive jerk so I can get her past this.

Trust me. And I know my sister Johnny.

I can’t let you take all the blame for this. Yes. Yes, you did lean in to kiss me. That was you, but I didn’t stop it. And if I’m being totally honest with myself in that moment, I didn’t want to.

But then, Everything you did to stop the extradition order and you saved me and my daughter, Sloane, has turned around and filed a civil suit for wrongful death. Paulina, why didn’t you come to me right away? You know what hell I mean after everything you’ve been going through. Oh, well, I appreciate that, but work actually helps me deal with all of it.

Gets my mind off things. Please let me help you and Chan. It’ll help me too. I’m well, I’d be thrilled to add you to the team, but are you sure? I am positive. I like you almost as much as I hate Sloane Peterson. So what do you say? I’d say the feelings. Mutual . Why don’t you, uh, let me treat you to breakfast.

We’ll talk strategy about how to take that off a lady now.

You were right. I told you I’d make a mean pancake. No, about Nicole. Provoking Nicole. Um, it was a mistake. Oh, that, I know I shouldn’t be looking for trouble, but she just makes it so easy to get under her skin and knock her off balance. And I hate to admit it, but maybe I am a little jealous. Oh, you were a little jealous, huh?

Well, it’s very clear that she still has feelings for you. Sloan, but what’s not clear is Eric, do you still have feelings for her?

How are you feeling? Any better? Yes, I’m feeling much better. Thank you. So you want to tell me what happened between you and Ms. Sloan Peterson? That woman is beyond smug. . Okay. So she saw me hugging Eric, and I really was just consoling him. Look, I’ve known him for half my life. She’s known him for what?

Five minutes. She harassed you for hugging her boyfriend Eric. Hugging. Eric, sorry. She went to the pub to give him his. and instead of handing it to him like an adult and excusing herself, she used it as an opportunity to gloat about how he’s a another notch on her bed post. And she made an uncomfortable situation even worse by making lewd and inappropriate insinuations about.

About, about us, you and me. Oh,

uh, Nicole. Maybe that’s, we’re doing a little bit. Ooh. Hmm. I can hold my liquor.

Hello?

Who did this? Who are you?

That would be me.

All right, Alex. Now I know I’m the last person to give any type of relationship advice. Because the one serious relationship I had or that wanted to have, I found every which way possible to ruin it. But I’ve seen you and Chanel together more than most people, probably more than anybody ever really think about it.

But you going, the point is, I have seen you and Chanel together. I see how much she loves you. She adores you and that’s why she chose to be with you over Johnny. Her and Johnny were married. They were married. They’re not married anymore. Okay? So please listen to me. You are beautiful. You were smart, you’re funny, and you’re way hotter than your brother.

I always thought So , that is so, that is a fact. You can e in stone. That is never. Probably the hottest girl I’ve ever been with, and I’ve been with a lot of girls. Is that weird to say? Yeah. Oh no. You know what? No, that actually, that actually makes me feel a lot better. Well, good. Very good. So why don’t you go home and make up with your girlfriend

you wanted to kiss. Maybe I shouldn’t have said that, but in that moment, I just look, I, I love Allie and I am totally committed to her, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t still feel something for you.

Well, um, you know, I, I loved you once too.

So then, uh, what are we gonna do about this lingering attraction?

There’s always going to. Some sort of connection between me and Nicole. There always will be. You know, we’ve had enough chances to make it right. We’ve had more than enough chances to make it right. We never did, and even will, if we were in court, I would ask the judge to instruct the witness to answer the question, which was, do you still have feelings for Nicole?

I don’t see how anyone could have an appetite in this pub. With you sitting here, you better get used to my presence, Ms. Price. After all, we’re gonna be stuck in a courtroom together very soon. Speaking of which, I can’t wait to see what Joker you hired to argue your daughter’s defense. And yours. Oh, well, the weight is over, Ms.

Peterson. I am the joker who’s already beat you once and well, I could beat you again with my hands tied behind my back,

just, just bleeding the call. I’ll have Harold clean it up. Oh gosh. I, uh, I don’t know what happened. I just got a bit oozy there for a second, but I’m fine now.

Oh God. I just hate that. I let that bitch get me so upset, Nicole. Don’t give her that power over you. She’s a cold-blooded lawyer. She knows exactly how to elicit an emotional reaction from you and throw you off ballots. It’s her job.

You’re right. I, I certainly just don’t wanna give her the satisfaction of getting me upset and getting to me. I,

but on the other hand, Why should I deny myself the satisfaction of going over there and ripping every little hair on of her head? Well far be from me to tell someone to deny the Docker impulses. But Nicole,

Nicole, let’s, let’s, let’s, let’s get you upstairs. Let’s get you upstairs.

Ah, my head is killing me. Psycho. I’m sorry. I, I’m, I didn’t wanna hit you so hard on your head, but it’s fine. We know that there isn’t gonna be any permanent damage. Us. We both know how thick your skull is. You crazy. Hey, you know, I’m not the one here with the mental problems, and since you already told me that you no longer wanna find Ralph to undo some mental problems, I, I felt that desperate action was required because I’m not giving up on us.

Okay. Maybe we should open up discussions again about . Nice tray, smart guy. Listen, you’re not gonna get out of it this time, whether you liked it or not. We’re gonna fix that thick skull of yours and then, then we’re gonna see where your heart lies.

There you go. Better? Yes, it’s much better. Just lie down and rest. Stay with you if you’d like. Thank you, ej. I just. I think I’m just gonna lie down for a minute. I, I usually hold my liquor with the best of what’s

is nothing.

You’re a smart. Dynamic and

very beautiful woman.

Eric Grady is a fool. He never should have let you go.

What is your problem, Eric? Our mother just died and you’re, you’re just here hanging out with her. All right. Why don’t you not question me or my decisions, and I won’t question why you’re out. Ambulance chasing ambulance. Where’s there an ambulance? This is an, this is an attack on good people and a frivolous lawsuit with absolutely no merit whatsoever.

Why don’t you stop grandstanding and say it for the c. I’m not on the jury, but I’ve seen enough to know that you are on the wrong side of this. Sloan is an injured party here, and having lost the mother too soon, I can relate. And so should you stunt irreparable harm to Sloan, not the other way around.

Chanel took her mother away and Paulina covered it up. It’s in the story.

Ah, nice friends for you. If you want aspirin, are you out of your mind? First off, I will never, ever ingest anything from you as long as I live. Secondly, I’m timing. Lemme go. Okay, stop. It’s my turn. Now. First of all, settle down. Second of all, it’s just aspirin, Stephan. Okay? If I’m not gonna. Oh, you are unbelievable.

Thank you. See this. This is exactly why I abandoned any, any possibility, however, slim of ever getting back with you, your psychotic drive to take what you want in your incessant need to get your way, you know, step and fall. Actually, you don’t know because Rolf scrub your brain, but all the reasons that you’ve given me for not wanting to be with me.

Are there reasons why couldn’t live without me? My relentlessness, my, my passion, my drive, my desire to, to fight for what is mine, to defend what I think is mine. That’s what you loved about me. You couldn’t get enough. Oh, right. So then I should be forced to be someone I’m not against. My will is, To undergo some weird experimental therapy to re brainwash me so I can start feeling feelings that I don’t feel anymore or love Stephan for the love that I know is in there.

The love that was taken away from you. Es your will. Okay, Gabby, listen up. I don’t want to be with you and I never will. I know that you believe that. It hurts me to hear you say this, but I know it’s the brainwashing talking, and I know you don’t wanna be tied to this chair, but I had no option. We’re gonna get through this together, and once it’s done, you’re gonna see that it was all worth it, I promise.

How Gabby, how is this gonna work? Huh? Marlena is dead. Rolf has disappeared. Your husband Lee ought of that. So without Rolf the only person who can undo his own handiwork, I don’t see how I look. You’re right about one thing. My love. Yes. We don’t know where. But as you just said, we do know somebody who does.

Hi Lee, it’s Gabby. I really need to see you.

What? Well, normally I would just ghost you, but. , seeing as I’m in love with your twin sister. I don’t really see that happening. And really I prefer not to be ghosted regardless of how complicated this may be, fair. So I guess we’ll just have to be a little more careful around each other from now on, and I promise not to lean in anymore deal, and I promise not to lean back or not to lean away.

or no, not to lean into Well, you get the picture. Yeah. So what’s the deal?

I really care about you Shael, and I really care about my sister and we were able to overcome this little triangle we had a while back. And I don’t want to come between the two of you again. Besides, I think this thing with Wendy could be, uh, could be really. I’m happy for you. I’m happy for you too and for Allie.

Um, look, I know you guys are gonna figure this out. Okay. Thanks.

Normally I would defend my daughter to the death and put ignorant, mean-spirited people in their place. But out of respect for your mama, I’m not going to do that. Let’s just go to Julie’s place instead. Oh,

maybe I should get going myself. What? Why? It turns out these breakfast benefits aren’t really that beneficial first, Nicole, and now. I don’t wanna be the person that comes between you and your sister, please. It’s nothing that I can’t handle science. I like having you around.

Thank you for saying that, ej. That’s always nice to.

Especially these days,

and you know, you are, uh, you’re right about Sloan. I mean, I, I don’t need to go over there and engage with Sloan. It’s exactly what she wants. Why should I give into. You shouldn’t.

You know what? It’s a hell with Eric Sloan can have him. I don’t need him anymore.

I wanna have you.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Okay. Horton. Enough of a silent treatment. You’re the one who didn’t say good morning. Okay. You’re the one who slept in Henry’s room last night. Whatever. No, not whatever. We need to talk about this. Fine talk.

What are you waiting for, Dupree? Just minute it. While my grandmother was dying, you were busy macing on my brother.

So you’re saying I can’t come visit my mother anymore?

No, no. Dr. Ricker, of course. I wouldn’t want to upset her in her condition. I was just hoping that we could

just call me if anything changes. Okay. Thanks.

Well, look, I know you’re busy, so I’ll let you go. I just, I wanted to tell you how sorry I am about Marlena and Kate too. I mean, so incredibly sad. Of course. Hey, listen, if you need me to pick up Ari, just let me know. Okay. I’m here. Whatever you need.

Oh, what the hell do you want?

Morning, father, don’t you look at me like that? I know you don’t approve of me going after my brother ej, but if you’ll remember, EJ struck first. He knew exactly what Lian had done to me, and he didn’t say a word. So I know while you vehemently disapprove of one dera going after another, think you’ll agree.

In this instance, this particular Dera is there to pay.

Rolf, what the hell are you calling me? You. You need more Petri dishes. You can’t be serious. Okay? Okay, fine. I’ll get you whatever you want. Just make sure you don’t forget about our deal. If anyone asks about ej, I never had anything to do with Stefan’s brainwashing. Got it.

I have to go

ej.

I was just on my way to the office. Oh, then I’ve saved you a trip. I don’t understand. Let me be more clear. You’re fired.

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

Johnny, Hey. Sorry. I, uh, just dropped in like this. Open. I didn’t. Interrupt breakfast? No. No. Uh, my dad just went out to talk to the priest about his service, and Steph and Joey just went with him. Huh? Did you wanna come in? If it’s okay? Yeah.

Look man, I, I, uh, I know you got a lot going on, so I’m gonna make this quick. I, I said some things last night, some, uh, some unkind things about your mother, which was unfair and uncalled for. Look, whatever Ava did I know, I know it wasn’t your fault and I was just, I was upset about my grandma Marlena, and I took it out.

Look, I, I was way outta line trip and uh, I just wanted to come say that. I’m sorry,

Nicole. Good morning. Morning coffee. I’d love some. Yes.

Thank you. You are welcome.

It’s the brew not to your liking. Oh, no, it’s, it’s delicious. But I was curious about something, what’s. Well, when I walked in, I couldn’t help but notice you talking to Stephanie’s portrait, something about making Ed Zamira pay. Which one were you referring to?

Stephan. Who were you telling your father you wanted to get back? Kristen, of course Kristen don’t sound so surprised. Nicole. She conspired with Lee Shin to have me brainwashed, but she’s already facing pretty severe punishments considering it’s all but certain that she will be charged with murdering Kate and Kayla.

And next she’s going to be charged with murdering marle evidence. What you haven’t heard,

it’s been all over the news. I, I, I turned my alerts off of. What are you saying? Marlena died

last night.

You let me sleep in? Mm. I figured you could use a little rest after last night. , that’s more than I expected. So my mother’s obituary, oh, she lived an amazing life. But Eric, I gotta say, I mean, some of the stuff in here, it’s pretty wild. I think that the spectator needs some better fact checkers. Well, I’m sure it’s all.

Papers owned by our family’s friend. Well, no offense to your family’s friend, but it says something in here about your mom being a serial killer. I mean, that is a liable suit in itself. I mean, just let me show you what, it’s all right now. I’d rather do this.

Well, are you just gonna stand there or do you plan on telling me why you.

Gabby, I,

I know that you’re upset with me and you have every right to be, but I just wanted to come by and apologize again for my brother to, to Stephan. Anything else? Just that Okay. I didn’t agree with it when I heard, I was actually pretty horrified. Yes. Getting inside someone’s head and manipulating their feelings, playing God like that.

Oh, you must not been too upset since you didn’t bother to tell me. I wanted to. I swear. I mean, I came close so many times. Keeping that secret was agonizing. You know what’s agonizing, Wendy? Finding out that the man that you married is a two-face criminal and that the woman that you asked to stand up for you at your wedding is a damn liar.

They begged me to stay. He was so afraid of losing you. You know, I’m glad it all came out. I, it’s honestly such a huge relief. What if it hadn’t? Hmm? What if, um, what if I didn’t remember that, uh, that wolf told me that Lee tried to kill Stephen in his sleep, or that, or that Lee had ordered Ralph to, to make Stephan hate me?

What then edman, would you have kept me in the dark forever?

I don. You dunno, , you just wanted leave me happy and you made him happier than anyone has in his entire life. And I couldn’t take that away. He’s my big brother. I love him.

But I know that’s no excuse. I just came by to tell you that I know what I did was wrong.

Hmm. We both know you can’t fire me. Why not? Last I checked, I was c e O of Damir, and you have me to thank for that. I was the one who got you the votes needed to give Gabby the boot and take back control of the company. On behalf of the entire Demira family allowed me to express my sincere gratitude for all your years of service, which I’ve determined is no longer needed effective immediately.

Now, let me be clear. I’m going to remain in my position as your number two with your enthusiastic support. Most, of course, you want Steph. Find out about your role in his brainwashing. You see, that’s the thing, Lee, he already knows. Excuse me. I told my brother everything, and now since you no longer have anything to hold over me, you’re out.

What do you want me to say that I was kissing Johnny? It’s the truth. No, isn’t it? Look, Henry is still asleep, but he could wake up any minute. So why don’t you just admit what you did and we can all move on with our day. I’m not going to admit something I didn’t do. Chanel, I saw you when I got off the elevator.

You and Johnny sprung apart like you had been caught because you had, I was comforting him. That’s all you’re gonna gimme the comforting him line. I know that line. I’ve used that line on trip when you and I had sex behind his back. Okay. I know what you think you saw. Stop. Stop it. Because the more that you try and make me seem crazy and paranoid, the more insulting it is.

So if you have any respect for me whatsoever, you’ll just admit what is obviously going on and tell me the damn truth. When I got off that elevator, you and Johnny were about.

Yes, we were.

Finally, you admit it. You did wanna kiss Johnny. I’m sorry. No, don’t be because now I know how you really feel and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you having the courtesy to tell me. Okay. It wasn’t like that. I was really comforting him. Right. With your lips. No, I totally get that. Could you please just let me tell you what happened?

Yeah. Okay. Go for it. Oh, but um, just how steamy does it get, should I make popcorn? Allie, please. I am listening. So I, I went to the hospital looking for you, and then I ran into Johnny and then we started talking and then I got your text saying that you had gone home. So I was getting ready to leave. And then your grandpa John came running over to us, right?

Yeah. Because he wanted you to set up the rooftop for him and Grandma Marlina. I already know all of this. Okay, but what you don’t. Is that the whole time we were up there, Johnny was trying so hard to stay positive, and then we saw your grandmother in a wheelchair and she just looked so weak and pale.

And Johnny, he just, he kept smiling, but I could just see how sad he was and how scared he was. And as soon as we got back downstair. He, he lost it and I hugged him and we talked about your grandparents and, and about how blessed they were to have found each other and about how tragic it was that it had to end this way.

And after that, I, I don’t really remember what happened, but. Johnny, he, uh, he leaned forward to kiss me. So now you’re blaming it on him. I’m not blaming anyone. I’m just telling you what happened. Your brother, he was a wreck and emotions, they were running high and, and it just was like, it just, it happened in the heat of the moment.

It just said, what does it mean? It doesn’t mean anything. Okay, Atley. I am in love with you. I chose you. The whole reason I went to the hospital in the first place was to be there for you. I know you’re in pain, okay? And Molly, you need support right now and I wanna give you that support. I really do. I really wanna be there for you to help you, cuz I know you’re dealing with all this loss.

So please, Allie, can we please just forget about this?

Huh? That depends on what you say, that I’m the one you wanna be with, that you chose me and that what happened with Johnny last night was meaningless.

But to almost kiss somebody, that means that there’s attraction there. So tell me, are you still attracted to my brother?

Okay. I appreciate the apology. You taking the time to come by, that means a lot. Yeah. Yeah, of course. Look, I don’t blame you for being angry at my mom. I, I, I love her, but I’m also very aware that she’s done some truly terrible things. She’s sick and I kick myself every day for not being here, for not knowing how bad it was and not getting her the help that she needed sooner.

She’s at, uh, Bayview now, right? Yeah. She’s not getting out anytime soon. I’m sorry. Between, between that and losing Kaylee, you’re having a pretty rough time too, and, uh, hitting you. That was, it was not cool. Yeah, don’t worry about it. I didn’t take a swing at you first. . Oh, I should, uh, I should probably get going.

Um, give your family my condolences. Same. So we’re good. We’re good. All.

You told stuff in the truth. Mm-hmm. , he must be furious with you. Quite the contrary. He was very understanding. He understood that his own brother stabbed him in the back. Well, he wasn’t happy about it, of course, but he sees the bigger picture. By reclaiming Demira from an unqualified interloper, I’ve saved the company and preserved our legacy for generations to come.

You’re saying Stephan approved of your portrayal. I’m saying he respected it, and more importantly, he forgave me. And from now on, we’ll be running the company together as co CEOs. All in the family as it should be. . Funny you should mention family. You are aware that my father’s chairman of the demerit board, he’s not gonna like this.

True. True. He’s a very proud man. And you’ve embarrassed him terribly. I mean, he’s not going to like that. I’m being dismissed. He’ll never stand for it. I’m not sure what he can do. Seeing as you tried to murder my brother and subsequently had him brainwashed by a mad scientist. There’s no evidence of that.

Well, not yet. And in the meantime, there is a very decent chance Kristen could flip on you to save her own ass. You, the cops, your crazy sister, have nothing on me. Therefore, my father’s gonna make the case the very strong case to the shareholders and the board that until, unless I’m proven guilty of a crime.

I deserve to remain right where I am. Hmm. Wayne May be a formidable businessman, but he is not a demir. His opinion will never hold the same weight as ours. Are you willing to stake your company on it? I am in Indeed because the C E O I have every right to make this decision, which I’m sure I’ll have broad support in making, and I can always call on my voting block if I have.

Bottom line is whether you end up in prison may be an open question, but whether you have a job is not.

Good luck in all your future endeavors.

Oh, and uh, flee.

Let this be a lesson.

You don’t cross a demeanor and get away with it.

Fine. I accept your apology. Did you hear what I said? Do you want me to change my mind? No, no, no. Of course not. Thank you so much, Gabby. Thank you. Are those for me? Yeah. I thought they could be peace offering. Pretty lame, right? I would’ve preferred to design a handbag, but I do need Lily’s.

So what happens now? With who? With Stephan? Is he going to be Deprogrammed? Now that everything’s out in the open, you could do that. . We could, but Stephan’s not interested. He was at first, but he changed his mind. Why would happen? As you may know, after we got over our initial hurdle in this whole nightmare, you know, having Stephan believe that he was actually brainwashed and he finally did after Johnny told him that he went to Jakarta with you.

Yeah. That was huge. Yeah, it was for the first time after Stephen came back to life, he was actually nice. Sympathetic, almost caring. He said that now that he knew the truth, he understood how horrible this has all been for me. And he even apologized for hurting me. Must have been so happy to hear him say that.

Except he also told me that his, uh, feelings for that cow Chloe Lane are also real. But instead of arguing about how ludicrous that is, you know, I just told him we should find Dr. Rolf, have him undo what he did, and then he could decide if he still. And Stephan agreed. Yeah. Yes. Until we found out that Dr.

Rolf was in my, a disappeared without a trace. So I had one option left. The esteemed Dr. Evans, I, I went to see if she could help when yesterday is, I know that she was dying, but I had no choice. Okay. Well, what did she say? Brady wouldn’t let me in, which is a huge mistake because if anybody believes in the power of love, it’s Marlena.

I mean, if she could have helped, she would have, but now it’s, it’s too late. I’m sorry. I thought I was doing a good thing. I thought I was doing what Stephan wanted, but what I wanted too for him to remember what we had so that we could be together. But when he found out what I did that, and I even turned to Marlena, he was angry.

Oh, he was more than angry. He was repulsed. He says he never wants to see my face again.

I can’t believe she’s gone. Yeah, it did happen stunningly fast and the impact of her loss is so much greater than I could have possibly imagined. What do you. Well, her pit was picked up by every paper across the globe, and initially I thought Marlena was just a small town shrink, but hardly that’s so I learned she was one of the most well-respected psychiatrists in the world, and her impact didn’t just reach her patients, her colleagues or friends, and her children.

Thinking about Eric

Nicole, are you thinking about Eric? Of course. I’m thinking about Eric. I’m thinking about all of Marlena’s children, including Eric and Sammy and Bell and Brady. Right? Okay. Yeah. I wonder what’s keeping ej, isn’t he at the office? I asked him to, uh, take care of something for me first. Oh, that can’t be good.

Hmm. No, it’s a very good thing, Nicole. I asked him to fire Lee Shin on your. Oh, it was the least he could do. Considering he newly brainwashed me and didn’t say a word to me for months. AJ knew about that. Yeah. After the fact he came clean last night. Oh my God. I, I had no idea. Yeah. Nice try, Nicole. I’m. I have heard that you are a very gifted liar, but your acting skills use a little tune up.

Clearly you are fainting surprised about ej, just like you were pretending to care exclusively about Eric. Wow, I have to go to work. Hmm? You do that.

That’s it. No. Round two. I’d love to, but I can’t. All those shots you did last night, finally catching up to you. No, it’s not that. It’s just that my family is arranging my mother’s services and as much as I live to stay here with you, I need to go home and help. And of course, but just remember if you need to work through anything, I’m here for you.

Hey, Eric,

step doesn’t know me at all. Thanks. I’m this completely cruel, selfish person, person. Look, you can’t let what he said upset you. He didn’t mean any of it. Of course he didn’t. And he only said it because, oh, he hates me because of the, the brainwashing. But if he’s just got deprogrammed, he’d still love me.

But if he still hates me, he’s never gonna get deprogrammed. So I’m stuck.

You know? It’s too bad that you can’t make him do it. You mean force him? You mean, how would I do? Well, you just said s Stephan’s not in his right mind. I’m not a lawyer, but I would think that if you could have a mentally ill person committed, I mean there must be some way you can compel s Stephan to get the brainwashing reversed.

You mean get a court order? I don’t know. Maybe not. Maybe the best strategy would be to put on a full court. Okay. Get everyone who knows and loves Stephan to convince him he has to do this. Like an intervention. Yeah. But make it all about him. Like how doing this could give him back control of his thoughts, his feelings, his life.

And then once he has that, he can make whatever choices he wants. And of course he choose to be with you. Yeah. But even if Stefan gave consent, I. Well, I’d still be stuck because Marlene’s gone, Ralph’s in the wind. We have nobody to fix the damage. So no, I’m, I’m completely out of moves. Oh,

well, I’ve imposed on you long enough.

Anything else? Well, I guess I’m just a little surprised about what I’ve seen, how hard you fight for what you want. It’s one of the things I admire most about you. I never expected Gabby Hernandez to give up.

Wendy. Hey, that time, no, no. What’s going on? No. I just came by to see how you’re doing after last night. Oh my God. You’re fine. . No, no. Don’t worry about it looks worse than it is. Oh, I still can’t believe Johnny hit you. Oh, I actually just came by to apologize. good. I mean, I know he’s upset about his grandmother, but he can’t just go around punching people.

Ah, well, to be fair, I took a swing at him first. Yeah. After he said some horrible stuff about your mother, he actually apologized about that as well. Said that he was upset about Marlena and that he lashed out at me. Yeah. With his fist. I didn’t like it, but I get it. John just lost somebody who he really loved.

Am I still attracted to Johnny? What kind of question is that? I don’t know. You’re talking about emotions being high and things happening in the heat of the moment, so to me that sounds like there’s still chemistry there. Okay. Well you wanna talk about chemistry? Well, what about you and Alex? Me and Alex, yeah.

The other night when I came home, you two looked pretty cozy together. Drinking beers, hanging out. So what you wanna tell me that you’re not attracted to him? We were talking. But I’m thinking that maybe you wanted to do a little more than that considering that you asked for another threesome.

You know, it’s too bad that you can’t make him do it. You just said Stefan’s not in his right mind. I’ve seen how hard you fight for what you want. I never expected Gabby from N to give up

Wendy’s, right? I can’t just sit back and accept this. I have to freaking do something and I will.

So it’s done. Hardly take it. Oh, he made a lot of noise about how there’s no proof he did anything wrong, that his daddy’s chairman of the board, blah, blah, blah, blah. But rest assure. You don’t have to worry about having that trader in your midst any longer, Glen, hear. And even better, as soon as we finalize that paperwork, you and I will officially be co-CEOs of the mirror, which is a way it should have been all along headway, not intervened so unnecessarily.

And with the brothers de mirror back in charge, this guy’s the limit. Hmm. Sounds like reason to celebrate. Mm. Should I grab a fresh bottle of champagne from the cellar? We can toast to our future. Huh Uh. It’s a bit early, isn’t it? Oh, I’ll make you a mimosa . Okay. Okay. That, uh, that sounds lovely. I just need to email the paperwork to the lawyers and I’ll be right back.

Sounds good.

You’re throwing a threesome comment back in my face. You know, I didn’t mean that. Well, you sounded pretty serious to me. I was trying to make a point by airing out our private business in front of Alex. Do you know how uncomfortable you made him? Please? He doesn’t care. Okay. Well, I do. You made it sound like I’m unfulfilled in our relationship.

That was me. Me. No, no, no. You’re not gonna turn this back around on me. You are the one who almost kissed Johnny. Okay. And you brought Alex home. Alex took me home after he ran into me in the square and saw how upset I was about my grandmother and didn’t want me to be alone. Okay, I understand that. So why can’t you understand what happened with me?

Because Tony’s not some rando that you’re never gonna see again. He’s your ex-husband. Okay. Ex as informer as in no longer happening, right? Except for the whole comforting him. Well, have you ever thought that maybe I need some comforting too. I mean, I, I, if you’ve forgotten, I was recently arrested for murder.

The charges were dropped. Yeah, but it isn’t over. Sloane Peterson is suing me and mama in civil court, and she’s made it very clear that she is out for revenge as she’s not going to stop until she ruins both of our lives. So yeah, I’m kind of having a hard time right now. Oh. And I’m. I lost both of my grandmothers right before walking in on my twin brother, about to shove his tongue down my girlfriend’s throats at Lee.

No, I don’t wanna talk about this anymore. I have a ton of things to do. Oh, so that’s it. You’re just gonna walk away. Yeah. I need to go help with my grandma’s arrangements, so I’m gonna go get Henry dressed and then we’re out here

On your mom? Yeah. I just spoke to her doctors. Um, they asked me to stay away. They think seeing me might somehow trigger. Oh, no, I just, I feel so helpless. You know, I, I, I can’t go see my mom. I, I could have gone with my dad and my siblings to talk to the priest about care service, but that also didn’t really feel right.

But weren’t you closest with your stepmom? Yeah, I mean, over the past few years, I mean, she was like a mother to me, but. At a time like this, I just, I don’t know. It feels inappropriate to group myself in with Steph and Joey. I’m sure they wouldn’t mind. I know, I know. I just don’t intrude.

I don’t know what to do with myself honestly, Wendy. I am. I’m lost.

That’s okay. With grief illness. There’s no roadmap how you find your way outta it. I’m not sure you ever do completely, but I think in time it gets better.

So for now, I should just want stay calm. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and eventually

you’ll end up exactly where you belong.

Eric,

hi. Hey. I just heard about your mother. I’m so sorry. Thanks. That’s such a terrible loss. Senseless, and, and shocking, and I can’t imagine what you’re feeling right now. I, I feel numb. It makes sense.

I should inside. Of course. Um, Aaron, before you go,

nevermind, what

would it be Okay if I gave you a hug?

Yeah, of course you can gimme hug. Are you sure? Yeah.

Eric. Hey, Sloan. Sorry, didn’t mean to interrupt Nicole. Hello Sloan. Is everything okay? No, everything’s fine. You just left your phone in my bed.

Johnny, look, this, this really isn’t a good time right now. I, and actually until things cool down, we should probably stay away from each other. I came here to see Wendy. Oh, uh, sorry. Um, yeah, she’s not here. Where’s she? I don’t know. She left pretty early this morning, but I’m not sure where she went. Can I get you some ice for that eye?

I noticed that it doesn’t hurt.

Hold you. Okay. Tough guy. Hmm. I’m just glad that Johnny apologized. I’ve kind of been on an on an apology toward myself this morning. Oh yeah? Yeah. And who’s on your route? Mm. , how did that go? Well, first I thought she was gonna slam the door in my face. Mm-hmm. , but uh, and she heard me out and in the end forgave me.

Nice. I just wish I could help her with stuff. And you know, he refuses to get the brainwashing reversed. What? Why? Long story. But even if Gabby could convince him to get to be programmed, there’s no one who could actually do it. So she’s stuck with him hating her. That sucks. I know. I just feel so bad that there’s nothing she can do.

Hope you enjoy your little drinky J because after a few doses of this, you’re gonna start acting pretty strangely. In fact, your judgment’s gonna be so impaired. The mayor board will have no choice to remove you. An eye for one can not wait.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 I am gonna do without you.

So, uh, I guess I should ask you.

Oh, man. What, um, breaking news reports about grandma makes it pretty real. Yeah. I think I know how you feel when I lose my big mama. I am gonna fall apart. And then you lost your Aunt Kayla and your Grandpa Roman wife and my, uh, my other grandma. It’s, it’s just like, when, when does it end? You know, what’s,

you said that you wanted to ask me something? Uh, yeah. Yeah. You, um, you never told me what happened with you and Allie after I. Well, I was sitting alone when you found me here tonight, so that should tell you everything you need to know.

Dave, I’m, I’m so sorry. I was not looking where I was going. You neither.

Oh. Oh yeah. I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you. I’m sorry for yours too. Grandma meant so much to so many people. Yes, you did. This day is just the worst look. I’d like to have a seat and sit down and talk. You know, I don’t think anything that I would say would make much sense right now. If I just go on a walk, try and clear my head.

You do what you need to do. Do you know if, uh, if John’s still here? Yeah, I think he’s up on the roof. Um, that’s where she, that’s where she died, so I think he could really use an old friend right now. I figured.

I know you’re gonna be up there. You’ve been looking out for all of.

Where am I?

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

Hey, Steph. It’s me, a k, a jackass. I know I have no right to be asking anything of you right now, but

could you maybe. Try giving me a chance to make this up to you. I’m talking groveling here. You and I had something great going and I don’t want to give up on that.

That’s all I wanted to say.

I know I should have called first. No, it’s okay. Come on in.

Hmm.

Oh, I, I don’t know how so many terrible things can happen to one family in such a short time. I just wanted to tell you in person how sorry I am and, and I brought you something that you and your daddy can stick in the oven and heat up for. Thank you so much.

What’s the least I could do ever know that you’ve been there for me when I needed help. I really appreciate you bringing that in person. Um, actually, uh, that’s not the only reason I can, yeah. Oh yeah, Stephanie. I need your connections now more than ever.

Knock it off. I’m coming.

At least you didn’t bring the kid with you this time. No. Rachel’s situation is the only thing in my family that seems to be under control. What does that? My mother died today.

I don’t understand what’s happening. I was on the roof with John. Join John. John, are you here?

Don’t.

Is this a political problem? Because now that the new governor’s been sworn in, you can’t change your mind about No, no, no, no. I didn’t change my mind. I’m saying here in Salem and, and I’m at war and for chandel’s sake, I cannot lose.

So. I told Allie that the only reason I went to the hospital was to see if she was all right. Something tells me that didn’t make much of a difference. She can’t get over walking in on us. Did did you happen to tell her that? I had just realized that my grandmother was about to die and that’s why you had your arms around me.

Johnny, you turned into a little more that okay, fine. So let her be pet at. Johnny, it was both of us. You tried to comfort me. I tried to turn that into a piss. You know I’m right.

Oh, hi. Hey. Oh God. I just heard about Dr. Evans. I’m so sorry. Thank you. If you’re looking for Chanel, she’s not here right now. It doesn’t matter. What do you mean it doesn’t matter? Oh, you can’t be alone right now. You don’t look okay. I’m not okay. I’m the farthest thing from, okay, right now. Let’s get you home.

How’d you find me? Buddy? Ran into Alley at the nurses station. Ah,

we were just, uh, you’re sitting over there looking at some family photos. Oh, that’s. That’s what the projector was for.

She wanted me to take her home. I just kind of thought this was a, a compromise, just trying to make her happy.

You did,

and I know that she’s up there right now looking down on me wanting to need to be strong. She wants me to know that I’m gonna get past this. That would be her. But she’s wrong. I am. Cause I’ve never past this.

That’s it. That’s right. Your best friend,

Oh, thank God. We all thought you died in that terrible car accident. And here you are. You’re alive and you’re well.

God so much.

Oh my God, Eric, I’m so sorry. I, I know what it feels like to lose a mother. Yeah. Well, this didn’t have to happen. Did the hospital screw up on her care? Was it the doctor? Because if so, you consider them into oblivion? What? No, it wasn’t the doctors. They did everything They. It’s the virus. She’s too strong and they couldn’t find the cure to fix it.

Okay, so you came over here to tell me she died and shouldn’t you be with your family right now? No, the family is the last thing I wanna be around right now. Are you sure you don’t wanna be with somebody you care about? I said I care about you. I mean someone you love. And we kind of agreed that that’s not what we are doing.

That’s not, I’m not asking for a shoulder to cry. Hey, what do you want?

Yes.

So after the London cops said they didn’t wanna press charges, I thought Chanel and I had made short work of that Sloan Peterson. Well, I thought so too. What? Well, that little witch, she’s suing us both for wrongful death. She’s made up her mind to ruin on us one way or another. So it’s a civil suit. Right.

And the lawyer I’ve been talking to, he says that, uh, that means that that burned of proof thing is lower than ever. She could take me to the cleaner. Chanel could lose the bakery. Oh, that’s awful. Ooh, you’re telling. But I don’t see how a publicist could help you. What I need is someone on the inside, I want to know Sloan’s strategy and you want me to be that person?

Well, actually I was thinking of your, your, your boyfriend, Alex. What, what’s the problem? Well, he, he saved us once. I mean, uh, remember, remember how he got fat evidence that Sloan head on your mouth? Unfortunately, yes. Huh. Well, we need him again. Tell him to suit up or you gonna strip down whatever it takes.

Oh, he’s gonna get back in the ballgame As much as I’d like to help you, I, I can’t do that. Well, what, you’re not having an attack of ethics, are you? That’s not the problem. Well, I’m done to what it is. I’ll fix it. You can’t. Alex and I split up. Thank you again for taking such good care of Henry Night.

Hey, if you don’t wanna be alone, I can stick around. I don’t know what I want. I don’t even know where I was going when I ended up in the square. Why isn’t Chanel. Bakery’s closed. I don’t know where she is. Maybe with Johnny. Wait, what? Do you want a beer? I feel like beer sounds really good right now. Sure.

Thanks.

You want to sit down and drink that maybe? Sure.

I cannot believe that your grandmother’s really gone, that woman. She was like an institution or something, just always helping people. Yeah, she helped me. That’s for sure. Yeah, she was so strong. I really thought she was gonna make it through this.

What, what may maybe, maybe you shouldn’t chug that. The last thing you need right now is a hangover. What I need is my grandma. I’m gonna call Chanel, uh, Uhuh. Please don’t. Ali, is there something going on with you two? It’s what’s going on with her and Johnny. It scares me.

Okay. Uh, you know, I’m gonna go find Allie and talk some sense into it. No, no, no. Talking to Allie is my job. Butter vent to me, all should be should be calmed down by the time you. No, you are both grieving over your grandmother. You’re too raw if you try to talk to her now. It’s only gonna make things worse.

It has to be me. It’s it’s your call, I guess. Yeah. And I wanna give her a little more time.

Have you, uh, have you thought about what I said? You said a lot of things about wanting to kiss you

with Susan. Are you saying that, that you’re really dead? The car exploded. I went up in a big old fire boom. . Yeah, I’m sure they just sch swed what was left in me under the Rs. Oh, no, no.

As as I there.

So if you’re dead and you’re. Here, and I’m here with you.

Does, does that mean that I’m,

oh, no. See, without that orchid that they couldn’t do a darn thing to bring you back to love. The same with Kate and Cal. What were they?

Susan? I asked you a question.

Am I pushing you into something you don’t want? Anything That’s a possibility. I must be losing my time.

I knew you weren’t yourself, you were just trying to be kind to me. I came on to you. I, I’m really sorry. That’s, I didn’t take it seriously because you had just finished telling me about Wendy and how great she is. Yeah, yeah. I think I just screwed that up too, how, uh, I ran into her before I came here.

She’s with Trip Johnson. Well, he’s back in town. Yeah. Kayla’s his stepmom, so he’s. He’s here with Steve. Anyway, I, uh, I picked a fight with him. Okay, well, how bad a fight he tried to punch me. I decked him. Uh, well, what was it about? Oh, about his lunatic mother, maybe Vital. She’s the one who caused the crash that killed Susan, my other grandma.

Needless to say, Wendy. Not impressed with my behavior and I I don’t blame her. You know, I, you’re mad at the world right now and you’re being great about it.

Look, I’m, I’m really sorry that I, uh, made a pass at you. I won’t do it again.

I got off the elevator and the first thing I saw was Johnny and Chanel and they had their arms around each other and they were about to kiss. Okay. Well, to me the important words here are about to what they didn’t actually kiss. Yeah. Only because I showed. If I had gotten there like 10 seconds later, he would’ve been all over.

So then what did you do? Oh, nothing. I didn’t have time to do anything because Sarah showed up and told me about my grandma. Chanel could have been just trying to comfort the guy because he was so broken up. No, Chanel and Johnny are crazy about each other. I mean, they were married. They probably still be married if it wasn’t for Johnny.

Getting possessed by the devil. Yeah. A demonic possession can definitely take its toll on a marriage. I mean, that’s the only reason Chanel and I actually got together. And then she took forever to choose between John and Jeremy. But she chose you and she’s sticking with you. Why? Why are you taking their side?

I’m not taking their side. I am on your side. And look what you saw today could be right or you could be dead wrong. And since you have enough problems going on in your life right now, maybe you should just try trusting them.

I am talking from experience here. What? Having problems with Stephanie. Stephanie’s having problems with me. Major ones. It’s my own damn fault,

Alex. And you are on the F. It’s over. He cheated. I wish it was that. I’ve handled that before. This was worse. Hmm. What’s worse than a man who cheats? My mother died and because of Alex, I wasn’t there. Well, you gonna have to tell me more. Chad Damira found out about mom and so he tried to call me and let me know.

But I was outta the room when the call came in and Alex was alone with my phone. So he looked at the caller, ID saw that it was from Chad. He’s jealous of Chad. So he turned off my phone and didn’t tell me. Ooh, oh boy. It was, it was the worst thing anyone’s ever done to me.

And I was starting to think that maybe Alex and I had a. But that’s over. Now he’s dead to me.

A wonder if or refuse is enjoying his triumph.

Can open man. He’s a monster. Should have been me, Abraham. No, he hated Roman Stephen. Me. What does he do? He goes after the women we. Because he knew it would hurt more.

The devil himself went after Doc twice and she survived that. But Orpheus got her. He was so strong. Straw right to the end

buddy.

That incredible love that you had for each other. It isn’t gone. It will last forever. I know you’re right. It’s, it’s just that, hey, when, when, when it was just the two of us against the world, we could beat all the odds. So how do, how do I leave this place with, without her? How do I just turn my back on the bat?

How did you do it, buddy? How did, how did you go home to an empty bed without,

do you wanna tour the place? I want you to tell me where Kale is, and Kate is it? Kate made it through the Furley Gates

that Jebel broke every one of the team. And if you did, the Lord didn’t think of that then. I am very well aware of who Kate is and she’s been a good friend to me. And maybe she doesn’t live by everybody’s code, but under. She’s a good person. not good news. She’s definitely like you, Dr. Mar Evans for sure.

Or Dr. Kayla Johnson. Alright, tell me where Kayla is. You can do that, can’t you?

Hey,

hey. Did that help or did it just make you feel more alone? Not so tied up in

I can.

I am sorry if you felt like I was pushing you away. It, I just got tense when you spoke about your mother. Makes sense. It, um, it brings up a lot of memories of my own mom. Loving her, losing her. She doesn’t exactly make a person wanna have sex. I’m gonna, I’m sorry if that made you feel like I was using you.

No, you needed me. That’s very different and I’m not really used to that. People needing me feeling needed. Well, maybe talking to you can help me understand how to get through it. I don’t really think I’m gonna help you mention that Arina, you don’t seem like the vengeful type. Well, yeah. Tell me how vengeance is working out for you.

Ugh. I hit a bump in the road. The courts in London did not cooperate. That’s, I’m not gonna give up. She now, Dupree and her mother are not gonna get away with what they took from me. There’s other ways to make them pay.

Ugh. I think I’ve given Allie enough time. I better go see how she’s doing. Hey, Chanel, Allie loves you. All right, she’s gonna come around. Thanks for trying to make me feel better. You know, she could, uh, she’d come walking through here at any minute and see us. I’ll risk it. You’re a special person, Johnny Damara.

And I am so sorry. You’re hurting.

So you saw that it was Chad calling. And you turned off Stephanie’s phone and she wasn’t able to be there when Aunt Kayla died.

Go ahead, say what you’re thinking, but I am a selfish idiot who’s getting exactly what he deserves. All right. That might be a little bit dramatic. How do you figure if it had been Uncle Steve or anyone else from the family calling, what would you have done? I would’ve told Stephanie to pick up the phone.

Yeah, exactly right. So you saw that it was Chad calling. , honestly, you know, he’s been kind of a problem. He probably thought he was just butting in again. Exactly right. Okay, so look, you, you misjudged the situation. You messed up. If I was Stephanie, I’d be pissed. But we work through it. Why? Because you would never deliberately keep Stephanie from being at her dying mother’s bedside.

You made a stupid mistake, but I think that means that you deserve to be forgiven.

Ought to be hung up by his thumbs and I, I can’t believe you don’t even know your mama was dying. So you don’t think I’m overreacting? I do not. First of all, your phone is none of his business, but more importantly, he kept you from seeing your mama for the last time. Oh, let me tell you, if a man did me that way, he be singing soprano for the rest of his natural life.

Thank you for the back. You got it. Sometimes I have moments where I think maybe I was too angry. Hopefully you don’t need a man sneaking around trying to arrange your life the way he wants. You ha. You have so much to offer. Thank you for saying that. But I, I still can’t get him to help you with Sloan. I hope you can find another.

Get her out of your life. I am not letting you off the hook yet. Missy. Mm-hmm. . Now you have come through for me in the past and I have faith that you, you can do it again. Cases like this are one in the court of public opinion. That’s your area of expertise Now, branch head on board, that boy smart. Yeah. He is not hard to look at either.

Alex will probably just think you’re doing it to get to. Alex can think whatever he wants. I couldn’t care less what? This is a very big place. I mean, it makes New York City look like an you want, I’m asking you to try. Hi. Okay. All

here we are here to Jay. All right, we’ve got Andrew, Jack, lady Bird. Now we are already past the case. Well uh, try her maiden name, which day. Brady. Oh, I should, she’s still with romance. Kimberly and Bo? Yes. Oh, oh, here we are. Bogar, Aurelius Brady here. Yep. Except there’s Esri’s, Neer’s name and I really don’t know what that means.

And we’re looking for Kayla. She’s head.

I’ll start thinking about how to spend this and then I’ll give you a call. Mm-hmm. . Oh no. Take some time. Take some time to grieve, but get ready for War ii. . Oh, I wish I could do this myself, but I’m too much a part of it. Oh, Sloane made my baby a target and I went to DEF com one. Mm-hmm. . Oh, my mom would’ve done the same thing if anybody came from one of us.

They’d have to go through her first.

You and I are gonna open a bottle of wine one night, step dollar, and then you going to tell me all about her, but do yourself a favor. Don’t focus on not getting to say goodbye. You’ll never escape the pain. You’re not pretty sure you and your mother were past needing words and she died knowing how much you loved her.

Just, just think. Just remember all the good times and smile when you’re thinking of them, and she’ll never be far away.

You actually managed to give me some hope. Maybe Stephanie comes around. Here’s to you the only one so far to have my back.

Hey Alex, what are you doing here? I ran into him when you heard about grandma. Yeah, it was nice enough to offer me a shoulder to cry on, you know, like you did

No corner.

Know you’ve got your children. Yeah. Your grandchildren. They need you. They need you, buddy. They, that’s, that’s what will make you go on. You can do it, buddy. You can do it. You just came reminding me of that. Okay,

John, look, you know, why don’t you come home with me? I mean, just, just stay with Paulina and me for no buddy. You know what? That’s just gonna post Paul. Inevitable. I need to be in a place where I can feel Doc’s presence, and that is our home. I need to climb into our bed. I need to smell her perfume on her pillow.

I need to look at her picture on my night. And just fall under those eyes again. I know it’s gonna be hard as hell partner, but that is what I need right now.

I don’t know why Taylor’s not on the list. Well, she’s new. Her paperwork hasn’t come through yet. I mean, you wouldn’t believe how long I had to wait to see the king.

You had a meeting with God No better. Oh, I gotta talk to El Eric Presley, don’t you? I mean, I got to tell him how much I love his singing and we got to take a selfie together. I mean, I was gonna right there, but you know what? Dead. Well, you know what? She’s around here sometimes. She is. She is. You know what?

I’m here to, I’m here to help you make that transition over to the other.

You know, one of the things that I learned during my years as a priest is that’s a hunger for revenge isn’t a natural instinct. It’s more of an obsession. Is there anything that makes it go away?

I have one.

If I could just think of some of those strategies.

Hey, Steph, it’s me, aka the jackass. Look, I know I don’t have the right to ask you for anything, but could you maybe just give me a chance to make this up to you? I’m talking groveling here. You and I had something so great going and I don’t want to give up on that. That’s all I wanted to say.

Well, I think I’m gonna take off, no, that Chan knows back. No, no, don’t do that. Hey, you know what? Maybe we could have another threesome because I know first Chanel life would just means getting a little bit boring. That is not true. And don’t put Alex in the middle of this. You know, I’m sorry I wasn’t really in the mood anyways.

It’s been a pretty long and awful day for me, so I’m gonna try and get some. Henry’s room.

How’s John doing? Well, it’s going to be in a bad place for a very long time. Marna was his life.

Everyone who dies, they get God here like a guardian. And look at me. They want me for yours.

What is it that, the transition you’re talking about? Well, it’s hard for folks to, uh, accept that they’re really gone and to let go of their loved. I myself had a devil of a time. I accept that my Elvis Junior, I, I was never gonna see him again, and I know that it’s not gonna be easy for you to let go of the love of your life, Mr.

John kept, kept telling me I was going to pull through. He must be in so much pain. He is. He’s crushed, but he is his kids and the rest, family and friends, my children. Dear God, see, it’s just like you. I what? 20 You thought about yourself, oh, three seconds, and then you worried about child black and your kids, but that is why you made it.

Now I see paperwork, pay for work, and you need to get some rest. You’ve been through enough for one day. I can’t rest. I’ve got so many questions. Yes, the answers are gonna all be revealed. Yes,

Thank you. Welcome up. Tail. Here you go. And now I’m gonna have you walk right through and we’re gonna have a fresh start after you get some rest. Okay, let’s scoot. Scoot, scoot, scoot, scoot, scoop. There we go.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Boy that, uh, that slideshow I made for my grandparents kinda got to me. I can imagine. It was really something. Yeah, just, I don’t know, seeing all those picture. How long they were together, all the stuff they got through. It’s like the days of their lives were written by Emily Bronte, directed by Hitchcock.

Well, I wouldn’t have put it that way, but I think I know what you mean. Yeah, they were, they were together a long time before I was even born, but ever since I can remember they were. Solid. You know, even after everything they went through and they went through a lot, like I said, good and bad. There was never any doubt between either of them that they were with the person that they were meant to be with.

I used to, uh, think about. When I was watching movies, uh, Ingrid Bergman and Bogart standing in the fog at that tiny airport, Gregory Peck on the back of Audrey Hepburn’s, Vespa, even Carrie Grant shoving Katherine Hepburn back into that niche and there was, there’s this connect. That was always there no matter what was, uh, going on around him.

Now I know why you love those movies so much.

You know, I, I always thought that, um, Know that I’d, that I’d find someone that, uh, the first time I fell in love would be the last,

and now it’s the, it’s the end, honey.

Dear Lauren, I know we’re asking for a miracle,

and if it’s your wealth, please save her. I know it might be time for her to be with you in heaven, but we need her here. You my prayer.

I was just gonna drink you,

Dr. Horton. Why? Why was Dr. Evans moved? Why? I’m standing right next to her bed and it’s empty.

Have had a lifetime. Wonderful memories have.

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

What the hell is going on here?

So I, I just talked to the nurses and they said we could visit Marlene up, but only two at a phone. Okay. Um, you two go. Okay, we, we’ll come back and get you. Thank.

So how you doing?

Not great. I’m sorry.

I asked you a question, what the hell is going on here, Johnny? He was just really upset about your grandmother, and is she? No. No, she’s, she’s not dead. She’s just, uh, she’s up on the roof. Grandpa John.

Hold on. I’m gonna get some help.

Do you want me to pray with. No thanks. We were praying when you came in, or at least um, aunt Bellon, uncle Eric, where I can’t , I can’t really pray. Hmm. I mean, I think God knows how you feel between law firm.

You know, I, I’ve been thinking about, um, when we. When you and I like first

I was scared of how I felt about you. I didn’t know how you felt about me, didn’t know how I felt about me.

How weird is it that the only person I could talk to honestly about that was my grandmother? And she told me to fight for you.

Thank God she did. Although it wasn’t much of a fight. It’s not like I was playing hard to get,

sorry. It’s work. You should answer it. No, no, no, I’m not with. Your grandma wouldn’t want you to put your entire life on home.

This is Well, you’re kidding.

Hey. Hey. Did you get to see your mom? Yeah, I. How did it go? It was a nightmare. So Johnny found all these pictures of your grandparents and he put ’em together in a slideshow and then we set it up on the roof. I think to avoid roofs. What just sounds really sweet? That’s what grandma wanted. She didn’t want, uh, she didn’t want to die in a hospital, but.

No, no, no, no. It’s all right. It’s all right. I need to know who authorized the move and why I wasn’t consulted. Stat. Your mother’s been moved and I don’t know why. Oh my God. Please just try not to worry. If there was a change in her condition, I would’ve been told I’m the treating physician. Oh, God, snake.

Could this. You don’t know where she is, John, her, stop, get some help right now. Please help her. Right. Help.

Right. Yeah. No, I, I understand. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I’ll, I’ll, I’ll talk to you later. That sounded like good news. Um, the projects I’ve been working on got the green light. Oh my God. That, that’s wonderful.

It’s not, it’s not wonderful. Well, they want me on set. Yeah, the, that’s in New Zealand and they want me to go now.

I I, I’m gonna call my agent and tell him, tell him I can’t. Okay. Look, I know it’s, I know the timing sucks, but I mean, like I just said, your grandma wouldn’t want you to pass this off. Listen, I, I, I’m gonna stay here and Salem until I figure out what’s going on with her. Huh? Okay. Just, I understand. Call your agent, you know, tell him about your grandma, but just don’t say you’re not going.

This isn’t just about my, my grandma. I, I can’t leave because of us.

Okay. Drink this and tell me what happened. Thank you.

Oh, what? It’s Chris Tea. It’s supposed to be calming. My mother used to give it to me when I was upset. You look pretty upset right now.

So the visit, what happened? Well, uh, when I said that it was a nightmare, I wasn’t just talking about myself. Uh, my mom is hallucinating normal time. I’m. It must have been rough. She didn’t recognize me. She thought I was my dead brother. Charlie,

I, uh, gave Rafe a statement, so if he can arrest Kristen for what she did to grandma, I know. Do you want a medal or something? Not no, I I only told you cause I thought she didn’t know. Well, I did. Sorry if I didn’t praise you enough for standing up to the Damaris. Very brave of you, Ellie. Johnny is upset about your grandmother just like you are.

I really don’t need you to explain my brother to me. Also, this is not about my grandmother. This is about what I just walked in on. It’s not supposed to mean that it’s a little hard to believe that your grief stricken when I just saw you coming onto my girl.

You took her to the roof. She didn’t wanna be in this room anymore. Kids, she just wanted to be home and I couldn’t take away from the hospital. So we went up on the roof just to be under the stars. Oh. I’m thinking it’s maybe it was a little bit too much. No, no. You did the right thing. I had to do something.

She wanted to go home. She wanted to be in her own bed.

I’m.

Can’t. I can’t, I can’t.

To be with.

Do you want me to tell the rest of the family?

I’m so sorry.

Your mom thought you were your dead. Half Brother Charlie, we didn’t grow up together. I, I didn’t even meet him until recently. He did some very, very bad things.

Yeah, I have a brother like that. No, no. Lee hasn’t done anything close to what Charlie did. No. Charlie was a, uh, he was a lost soul. I think. I don’t, I don’t know. Maybe I’m just. It makes sense out of it all, but I think that he had so much pain on the inside that he just had to inflict that on. Others. What did he do?

I didn’t know where to start. Uh, he hurt a lot of people. Worst of all though, is what he did to Allie.

All, we’re all really upset, okay? We’re not thinking straight. I know what I saw, what you saw, what you saw was me about to fall apart and Chanel trying to comfort me. Craig, I don’t need your twist on how things happened because according to you, you never do anything wrong. But what about you? You’re gonna lie to me instead of telling me the truth.

Allie

Grandma is.

You.

Maybe you can talk some sense because none of this makes any sense to me.

You know, I don’t, I dunno if you realize, but like you alive, people have talked to me about things that are happening in their lives

and listen.

You were the one person that I could count on to listen to me.

No, you always know my faith is strong.

Then when life was hard, my faith sustained me

till now.

See, I asked God spare her life.

Stop listening.

I never needed someone to talk to more right than right now.

Okay, I think I’m gonna need you to explain this. Okay. Let’s just say that I, I, that my grandmother gets better, and, and then I, I go, we we’re gonna be apart for. At least six months, son. It’s a 16 hour flight one way. We’re never gonna have time to to, to go and see each other. I know. But this, this movie, you’ve put so much time and effort into it.

I know. And more than that, if you give this up, I, I might not get another chance that you’re You’re right. You’re right. And I, I know, even though we got past that fight we had on Christmas, I feel like it, it, it never would’ve happened. Or may, maybe it would’ve happened, but it wouldn’t have been so vicious and so sad.

I know we’ve been, we’ve had our ups and downs, but that, that felt different. I mean, that, that didn’t feel like us and that’s, that scared me. Well, I think what scared you was that I had befriend Leo Stark again, which of course you were right and I was wrong. Okay. I thought I should give him another chance.

I thought he could change and he did into an assistant kidnapper.

Look. Well, you said that you were scared because it didn’t feel like us anymore. Okay. But this, this movie is a dream come true. And if you let me hold you. Then you won’t be you anymore,

and then we could never be us.

Thing is that Charlie had this kind of gift and he could get outta people’s skin, make them,

I can’t really put it in towards. All I know is that he made my mom feel like all the things he did were her fault. That she loved me and didn’t love him, and that’s why he turned out like he did. And so as soon as she saw me, the, the guilt, he just made her think I was Charlie. That’s awful. What was really awful is that she started seeing Charlie after her first breakdown.

It was like this little devil on her shoulder, and I had hoped that when she started taking her meds, that the hallucinations would go away. But right when I walked in the door, she immediately started screaming, blaming me for all of the horrible things she had done. Thank you for Charlie. Right, right.

I, I tried to get through to her. I tried, I tried to make her see that it was me, but I couldn’t, and I had to and watch them, restrain her, sedate her, and then I had to watch them drag her away after she begged me to.

She didn’t know it was you. Trip, whatever part of her did.

My mom said that she hates me and, and maybe she hates me because I left her. In that place, uh, with Charlie alone in a nightmare that she may never wake up from.

So sorry. . God. Oh.

Are you okay? No.

I love you too.

So does everybody,

and not, not just love mommy. They respect you and admire you.

I’ve been so proud to be your daughter.

I, I just keep thinking about when we were in that coma and I had to fight everyone to honor your wishes, you know, to not keep you hooked up, to have been leader.

And then you let me off the hook. At least we thought you did. You woke up, but it wasn’t really you. It was Hattie and

God, I wish that this was handy right now. I just wish someone was gonna walk through that door and tell me. It’s not Dr. Marlene Evans, my mom,

do you remember when I was little on, we used to play hide and go seek . God, you were the best of that.

I would close my eyes and count to 10 and say, ready or not, here I come and, and then I couldn’t find you.

And then, so eventually I would just give up and, and I would just feel really. Scared that you were really gone. I was never gonna find you.

And then you’d come out and God, I would say, where were you hiding? And you would never tell. You said it was your super secret hiding. Please

God, why am I thinking about all this? I mean, I’m a grown woman and I just.

I just feel like that scary little girl.

I’m afraid I’m never gonna find you,

God, which is just a game I wish. But I could just close my eyes and count to 10 and just pray that this time I’m gonna find you.

You can’t lose her. I have to find her.

You’ll.

Just thank you. I know how lucky I hate them.

Okay, I’m gonna let you say goodbye. I’ll be right outside though. If you need me, I’ll need you. We’re all gonna need each other right now.

I.

Johnny, how’s your grandmother? She, uh, she just died. My god. So sorry. I’m sorry too. No, you just, You save. You’re sorrys Paolo. Okay. I just lost my grandma. The one I had left like Trip lost his stepmother. I know what you’re going through. Okay. Orpheus, that bastard killed Kayla too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Orpheus killed my grandmother.

He killed Kayla. He killed Cape, but sure, lunatic mother killed my other grandma, Susan. I can’t defend what she did, but she’s mentally ill . That’s convenient, isn’t it? You know, she made me believe she was a good person. She was just playing the victim card to get what she wanted, and now that it’s time for her to pay for what she’s done, all of a suddenly, she’s normal bass.

Watch it. Watch it. Your mother is a homicidal lunatic bitch, Johnny. He started it.

How’s Grandpa John Kate’s with her right now saying goodbye now. I’ve never seen anybody love anyone as much as you loved her. I know. Um, do you want me to call your mom? Yeah. Could you? Yeah, I just, I know she, she’s gonna try and be strong for me. I don’t want that for her right now. Okay. Okay. For your love.

You should go. No, Allie, I really need to go find Will, so I’ll just see you later.

Hi. Hi. I, I don’t think I can talk about this right.

Not until we know how your grandma stole Sonny. Just being away from you for that long. Also, it like it. I, Hey, you said you couldn’t talk about this right now. So let’s wait. This isn’t the.

I just left a message for Sammy to call.

Oh, hello, Dr. Evans. My name is John Black

Doc. This is wrong on so many levels. You’re those strong one. You’re the one that could go on me, not so sure about.

You remember when we first met? Yeah, I know that was a lifetime ago. I actually, I literally didn’t even know who I was. Yeah, I thought, you know, I was some good at this, this, this tough guy. You know, I thought I was, oh hell, I don’t know. I don’t know what I thought. But you,

you knew when you saw right through me, you,

you saw the man. Not only the man that I was, but the man that I could be. Again,

Primetime TV Review: Night Court (2023)

TV Review!

“Night Court” Review on by Eva 1/22/2023

I was a big fan of the original Night Court sitcom from the 1980’s which you can stream for free on freevee if you have never seen the original show. I was wondering how funny the updated version would be because, sadly, all of the cast of the original show have passed away except for John Larroquette who plays Dan Fielding on both shows.

Melissa Reach (from The Big Bang Theory) plays Abby Stone the daughter of the late Harry T Stone who leaves her job as a judge in upstate New York to take over her late father’s court room because she loved hearing her father’s stories about night court. Abby persuades Dan to return to night court as a defense attorney this time to help her learn how night court works. Abby, like her father, is very optimistic and wants to get to know the people that comes before her court.

This show is funny but the cast needs time to get their comedic timing together, as an ensemble cast. Melissa Reach and John Larroquette have great chemistry together and Dan is like a combination mentor and father figure for Abby. I look forward to seeing how their relationship will develop in future episodes.

The show is worth watching but it still needs a little work. I give this show 4 out of 5 stars.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, you didn’t come down for dinner? I thought you’d stepped out. I was here, but I was dealing with a para Uninvasive guests. Anyone I know, commissioner Hernandez and Detective Hunt. They were here before. Yeah. Looking for Kristen. Did they tell you the good news? They have an arrest warrant for your sister, but they can’t find her?

They were hoping I could help them out with that. And could you? No. But while they were here, Reeve got a call from Brady. The police should be closing in on Kristin, as we speak. You understand these rights does. I read them to you. This is ridiculous. I didn’t murder anyone, but you did withhold a life-saving treatment from two women who are now dead and Marlena is hanging by a threat.

I don’t know anything about a life-saving treatment. Kristin, you might as well give up the act because they know the truth. Oh God. What are you talking about? We have a recording of your confession. . Uhuh. You’re bluffing. Yeah. Is this gonna mark? Well, we can talk about all this down at the station. Let’s go take her.

Who off of me? What is this? A police state? Kristin, this is just you getting, what do you deserve?

Yeah, I, I’m hoping Brave has found Kristen by now, but I, I haven’t heard anything from him yet. Don’t, don’t, don’t thank me Uncle Steve. Look, it, it’s, it’s killing me that none of this is gonna bring Aunt Kayla back. You too. Yeah. I’ll, uh, I’ll, I’ll call you if I find out anything more,

Johnny? Hey. Hey. How’s your grandma? Uh, it was, uh, I was just about to check on her. Did you come to see Ellie? Yeah. I figured she could have used the moral support. It’s really bad, isn’t it? It’s really bad.

I can’t take you home, doc. Not in your condition. I don’t. I don’t wanna die. I’m not here. No, you, you don’t get enough. I don’t wanna talk like that. Ok. Don’t do that. We both, no, they’ve done everything they can. Nothing is working.

I just wanna be in my own bed.

The doctors are buying you time until Steve and the ISA can find that damn market. Good.

There’s no time. Now we both know that. Please, please, please get me outta here.

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

And I had Kristen cornered with this thing. If you would’ve stopped me, then she could have been knocked out on the floor before Rafe even got here. You’re serious. There are two dead women because of your sister, and Marlena might be next. So yeah, I’m. Kristen refused to admit to that she made a deal with Brady the first time got sick.

What’s so the deal? Well, she forced Brady to dump me and get back together with her, or else she was gonna let Marlena and Kate and Kayla all die. So Brady had no choice but to accept that deal, but then they all got sick again, and now she’s saying she has no idea where that damn orchid is. I wondered how she managed that reconciliation.

She’s a monster. That’s. She’s using her own child as a weapon to make Brady stay with her. All she does is cause misery and she doesn’t take any responsibility for any of it. Oh, that’s about to change. Why? What happened? Breaking news. Kristen Damer taken into police custody.

So Ray is gonna a restaurant, Kristen, as soon as he can track her down. And he wants you to testify against her. Yeah. Yeah. To, uh, verify the conversation she and I had when she confessed to everything. Oh, that was pretty slick of your Uncle Steve to put a bug in your place, but it kind of put you in a tough position.

No, no it doesn’t. Look, Kristin needs to be stopped. Her withholding of that cure is what led to Kate and Aunt Kayla’s death. And, and I’m. I am scared to death. My grandma might be next.

Johnny, you’ve been through this before.

Had enough time for me to take her back to Venice.

I’m not asking for Venice. I’m asking for a cross town. Honey, there wasn’t anything I could do for the zb.

Well, My odds aren’t much better than than hers were. So please, please, please,

perhaps you’ll settle for a compromise.

Molly, I made sure. What were you thinking?

I should go fine, Allie, right? Um, yeah. Last I knew she was in the chapel. Oh, it’s from her. She decided to leave the hospital. After all, she didn’t want the babysitter to put Henry to bed, but it’s nice to hug him right now. Well, uh, I guess I’ll head back. Uh, grandpa, is it grandma? No, no, no, no. She’s, uh, she’s the same.

Look, if you got a minute, I could really use your help. So I will keep you up to speed on Kristin if you keep me up to speed on Marlene. Okay. Thank you Bell and. , listen, if her condition changes at all, will you let me know anything at all? Okay. Love me.

Wheres mom? Hey, pumpkin. Um, We have to talk. Okay. Do you wanna, you wanna have a seat? Chad? Am I in trouble? No. No, you’re not in trouble, but mommy is okay. Mommy’s in a little bit of trouble. You see? She was gonna take you on a trip and she, she didn’t even ask me, and it’s not, that’s not good. Um, she’s done some bad things.

Some seriously bad things. And, and that’s, that’s why she couldn’t move. Well, she had to move outta the house, remember? Right. And, um, now it seems that she, she may have to go back to prison for a little while.

I know. Come here, come here, come here. It’s not your fault. Come here. It’s not your fault. It’s. Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marlaina or the other women. I swear to you.

Look, I will admit I hid the orchid knowing that these women would need more doses of the serum, but I wasn’t gonna withhold it if they got sick. I swear to you, I never wanted those women dead.

Where’d you get that? I got it. That’s all you need to know. Well, I hate to tell you that that’s not me on that tape. Someone who sounds like me or some sort of deep fake, it won’t hold up as evidence. Yeah, nice try. Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marna or the other. I swear to you.

Look, I will admit I hid the orchid knowing that these women would need more doses of the serum, but I wasn’t gonna withhold it if they got sick. I swear to you, I never wanted those women dead. Yeah, maybe not, but that’s what happened.

Damara agreed to testify that this conversation took place between the two of you. I demand to call my lawyer.

Let me see that. Describe me. A mugshot of her or something. I still don’t understand. What possessed you to let Kris move back in here and what can I say? She’s, she’s family. Hmm.

How about a game with Jess? I don’t wanna neglect my guest. No, it’s okay. I’m actually ready to go home. You sure? Yes. It’s been quiet a day and I’m pretty tired. You fellas, enjoy your game. I know my way out. Something tells me that I’m going to sleep so much better.

Something tells me she and Kristen don’t get along. You do know that I used to be a chess champion, right? Yes. You’ve told me quite frequently. . Well just want her to be up front.

EJ Dam. It’s your sister. I hear you’ve managed to get into a bit of trouble. Yeah. Now I need you to get me out of it How? How you come down to the police station and you bring your fancy law degree. I’m in the middle of something. Don’t jerk me around. Dj. You get your ass down here and you make this all go away.

Otherwise, my next call is to. And I am sure he would love to hear how his own brother sold him out for control of Tamara Enterprises.

Hey, where did you go? It’s going. A few arrangements. I know. Luckily I ran into a guy that’s gonna set everything up for me so I can stay right here with you.

The compromise, what is it? Come on, God. Will you love me? Surprise you for just one? Yeah. Do I get a hint? Okay. I’ll give you this much.

You’re about to go. On the adventure of a lifetime.

What is that thing? Uh, this thing is a Bluetooth projector.

I wanted to be nice for your grandma. Those good to be useful. Yeah. I still can’t believe you talked that coffee shop into giving you their window display . Oh, they were about to close anyway, and I told the counter guy who it was for four. Turns out your grandma’s a regular customer. Thanks. I really appreciate it.

Yeah, it, uh, takes my mind off my own problems Soon. I thought you said your English lawyer didn’t think Scotland Yard was gonna press charges. Well, that hasn’t stopped Sloan Peterson from suing Mama and Me and Civil Court

Chanel. I’m so sorry. I, I, I wish I would’ve known that. It’s okay. There’s nothing you can do. Yeah, but I still want to know what’s going on in your life. Just cuz we’re not married anymore doesn’t, I mean, I don’t still care about you, but what about Wendy? Is she okay with us being friends? Why would you ask about her?

Johnny, come on. You two are kind of the thing now. Right.

I don’t want mommy go back to prison. I know, baby. I’m sorry. But you look, we can, we can visit her. You’ll be able to see her. It won’t be the same. We won’t get to do stuff together. She won’t get to read to me at night. She does all the voices and she’s funny. I know, I know. She’s, I know she’s funny sweetie, but, and I’ve heard you laughing together and that’s.

You two are supposed to get married, but you wouldn’t and now mommy’s gone. Honey, we will get through it together, okay? You and me. We did before. We’ll be okay. I don’t want you, I want my mommy.

Leave me alone.

There you go. Turkey on rye with lettuce and mayo and cranberry. You remember the cranberry sauce kind of hard. Forget cranberry. What do I owe you? . Oh me. No, this is on me for a job well done. Well, if I would’ve known that I would’ve ordered dessert and apple pie. Carolyn Brady’s secret recipe. Okay. Okay.

Now I feel guilty. I mean, it was Steve Johnson that got Kristen on tape. No, no, no. You were the one who suggested that Johnny testified the tape is accurate. I mean, it’s, it’s a shot in the dark. I’m just hoping it’s enough to get the judge to. Yeah, well hopefully the DA can say that Steve didn’t get a warrant because he was so worried about his wife.

From what I hear, the Deras are experts at Eluting Justice, you heard. Right, and I will bet Kristen’s in there right now talking to EJ about how to do exactly that.

How soon can you get. I’d love to help you, Kristen, but the c e O of Dara Enterprises can’t get involved in a murder investigation. It’s just not a good look for the company. Don’t pull this crap with me, ej. Now you get me out of here tonight, or I will blow you out of the water. My decision is final. Fine.

Then I am giving s Stephan a call. Oh, there’s no need to.

S Stephan is right here with me and you are on speakerphone. Our sister has something she would like to tell you.

I hope we have another extension port. We do, we do.

You never answered my question. Uh, what? You and Wendy. Oh. Um, yeah. There’s really not much to say. I mean, technically we’re not even dating so. Oh, I, I, I guess I got the wrong idea because you two are always together. Ugh. We wanted people to think we were a couple. It was like our cover for what? Uber investigating.

Wendy’s brother le in. He’s uh, my dad’s right hand man at Damara. And what did you think he was? . Well, Lee was engaged to Gabby Hernandez, and we thought he might be doing something shady to keep Gabby from getting back with her husband. Who th she thought was dead? Yeah. My, uh, my Uncle Stephan. Oh, and, and it all came out at the wedding, right?

About the brainwashing? Yes. Oh.

Wendy’s brother. Sure. Sounds like a creep. Yeah, he is. That’s what I think. Anyway.

So, uh, well, now that your uncle and Gabby know the truth and the caper is over, where does that leave you and Wendy? Uh, I guess we, I dunno, we, we decided we didn’t want to. Seeing each other. I really like her. Oh, that’s great. I’m really happy for you.

Yeah. Yeah. We probably would’ve, uh, gone on our first date by now if it wasn’t for grandma getting sick. Hey, be careful on that chair, by the way. It’s not exactly stable. Woo.

You okay?

Yeah.

Krista’s in custody is all thanks to you Steve. We’re gonna make sure she pays for what she. Yeah, don’t worry. Just try to get some rest. Okay.

You okay? Yeah. It’s just, and Steve, he just, he sounds like a light just went out inside of.

Yo, you and Kayla fell in love when they were really young. I don’t know if he’s ever gonna recover from losing her, and it didn’t have to happen. I mean, how could one woman cause so much pain and suffering for so many people? And how does she live with herself?

Happy to see you, but what brings you by. Well, I heard that Kristen was just arrested. I was driving home and I I couldn’t stop thinking about you and Rachel. How are you doing? It’s been a day. Came home to find, uh, Kristen, preparing herself to take Rachel away with her. What? Thank God you stopped her.

Yeah, it was really close too. . Well, did Kristen know she was being arrested? Is that why she was running? No. She realized that she didn’t have any more leverage over me and that I would probably try to prevent her from seeing Rachel. She was very surprised to see Jayden and Rafe showing up here. Oh my goodness.

Was Rachel here when they took her? She was in, she was in the bedroom.

I don’t know how to, how do you, how do you tell your little girl that your mother has done such terrible things that she may be in prison for the rest of her life? How do you say that to your little girl? I dunno, but I’m sure you handled it well. I’ll enough. I can’t believe this is happening to my little girl, pj, this is ridiculous.

Take me off the speaker this instant. But you were so eager to tell S Stephan everything. This is your chance. Tell me what, I don’t know what you’re doing, ej, but it’s not, oh, I’ve grown tired of your games, darling. You wanted Stefan to know the truth. Okay. Why don’t you two quit screwing around and tell me what the hell’s going on?

It’s nothing. EJ is just acting like a child as usual. Fine. I’ll do it myself. What our wants to tell you is that I knew that Lee had RO brainwash you and outta self-interest. I’ve decided to keep that to myself.

You are an idiot, ej, and aren’t you fortunate that I won’t be serving as your attorney? And since you have to find someone else so quickly, why don’t we, don’t you dare hang up on me.

You knew he had me brainwashed only after the fact. Kristen was in on it from the very beginning. And you knew about it for months? Yes.

How’d you find out after you and I managed to pull off our coup? The board meeting, Lee took me to the site and told me everything. I was appalled, of course, but then Lee pointed out that if I decided to set you straight, you might remember your love for Gabby inside with her against me. Mm. So this was a business deal.

For me, yes. It was personal for Lee. And what did Kristen get out of it isn’t that obvious. You kept Chloe occupied and unavailable to Brady.

You knew what Lee did and you still made him your number two at Demira, and then you told me that way. Questioned my mental capacity, which was a lie of course,

but I had just assumed control of the company and I didn’t want that taken away from me.

I can’t believe it. If it makes you feel any better. Lee and Christian have been holding what I did over my head this entire time. But it is over now. I am glad, even if it means dealing with the consequences of my actions.

Okay. Yeah.

Everything ready to. Uh, one second.

Oh, that’s lovely. You too. Did an amazing job in such a short period of time. I won’t forgive it. Uh, this is for the projector. It’s all loaded. What do you do? You just drive around with all this equipment in your car, ? Uh, well, you know, you just, you never know when stuff like this might come in handy. Uh, I, I got this from the diner down the street.

Gus the Counterman, he says he’s praying for you. Bless his heart. Bless. Here’s two.

Anything for you, grandma. I love you. I love you too.

I know this isn’t the same as taking you honey,

but.

Thought that if something might happen, I can get you downstairs in a hurry. Oh my love. Oh my darling.

I’m so sorry. You have to deal with all of this when Marlene is sick. Huh? See, it’s, it’s, it’s all been kind of a perfect storm. Hurricane. Kristen, did you know that when you left the hospital we almost lost Mar? almost lost her. I mean, she, she, it was, it was really touch and go and the doctors were able to, to bring her back.

How is she now? I don’t know how much longer she can hold enlo. All the doctors can do is treat the symptoms. They need a cure for her. Are you sure that Kristen isn’t lying about the orchid being stolen? I, I don’t. All I know is, is the orchid was not where she said it was supposed to be. That’s all I. Wow.

And I feel, you know, I feel powerless to do anything, and I feel a hell of a lot of guilt about what I was supposed to save Marlena’s life by playing Kristin’s game. That was the deal. I should’t trusted her. I mean, I, I should’ve, I should have done something more, anything more. Hey, and I didn’t, your your back was against the wall.

None of this is your fault. No, that’s what my father says, but I’m not, Because look what I mean. Look, look what happened. I hurt you. I fixed it. So, so Kristen could control my daughter, John Marla had been forced to live here without maniac. I mean, it was all for nothing. Do you understand? If my dad loses Marlena, I , he’s not gonna be able to go on.

And I honestly, I don’t know how I’m gonna be able to live with myself if that happens. I’m sorry.

You get away from my daddy.

She one.

She one.

Delicious it.

Would you like some more? No. No? Okay.

Oh, what do you have? No, I had Johnny download some family pictures to my cloud. I thought it might be a nice idea just to.

Reminisce a little.

Oh.

I love that picture. No,

I love that one too.

You still laughing your eyes.

And yours,

John, how did this go so fast? I know. I just wanna do this all over again, doc. I know. I do, I do all over again.

Thank you again for, uh, helping me get things set up on the roof. Wouldn’t have made John’s deadline without you. That was so sweet. What John did I see where you get your romantic streak? Yeah. John and grandmother, their whole life’s been one big long, epic romance. Yeah. They, they had their breakups, but they never lasted.

You know, they, they always figured out that, We couldn’t live without each other. And now they might have to. Well, Dr. Evans, she seemed like she was hanging in there. Yeah. Yeah. That, that was for John’s benefit, you know, thanks to me. She, ah, she looked so frail and she was smiling, but yeah, I could see it in her eyes.

She knows what’s. Man. Man, you know, all my life, you know, as much as my parents would drive me crazy, I could always go to her.

God, I’m just so not ready to lose her.

Rachel, you will not talk to her that way. Okay? Chloe has done nothing wrong. Mommy said she added to move out because her, listen to me. Mommy says a lot of things that are not, You told my mommy, didn’t you? And that’s why the police came. Honey. The police came because mommy broke the law. Okay? I would never do anything to hurt you, Rachel.

You ruined everything. I hate you. Rachel. Rachel, that’s it. You need a timeout. I want you to go to your bedroom right now. I want you to cool off. And I will be in there in a minute. You seem mad. I’m not gonna be mad when we talk, sweetie. But you and I, we will get some things straight. I love you. Go.

So you hired an. Nope, I had a bit of a snag. We can get you a public defender, , some loser who went to a law school. He founded the back of a matchbook cover. No, thank you. We might wanna rethink that because I’m gonna want a statement from you before I book you and take you down to the holding cells. And while you’re at it, you might wanna tell us what Lian did as step in Damira.

Are you offering to cut me a deal if I roll on shit? It’s possible. Wow. I want murder charges off the table and total immunity.

Tell us what you know about Shannon and we’ll,

I remember when you first came to me, pitched me the idea of us joining forces to hold onto the company. And I thought to myself, finally, finally, I have myself an ally in this pit of vipers.

Finally, I have a sibling that I can connect with, and I thought we made a great. And now you tell me as soon as you got what you wanted, you stabbed me in the back. Kind of makes you king of the wipers. When we joined forces, I had no intention of doing that, but then Gabby made a run for control of the company and I simply could not allow that to happen.

I know that’s a poor excuse for what I did, but no, it. It is, and we both know this just wasn’t about the company. No, no, no. This was about you holding onto total control. You owed me and you hated it. Yes.

I am sincerely sorry for what I did, and you have every right to be furious.

No, I’m furious. All right.

In fact,

the only reason I haven’t knocked your ass out by now is that it wasn’t your idea to rewire my. That part is true, right? That you found out after the fact. Yes. So in your mind, you were doing what was best for the company?

Sure. He would’ve improved.

So

does this mean

we could work this up?

You mean can I forgive you? I suppose,

I think we can do that under one condition.

I am willing to put what you did behind me and move on if, if we go back to our original deal. Co CEOs

LE in has become a liability. I’ll terminate him in the morning and then you and I will run the Mirror Enterprises together. And we have a deal.

I’ll contact the legal department and get the ball rolling.

Thank you for being so. Reasonable about this, they still don’t trust you. Mm. And I don’t think you trust me, but I would imagine the old man would be proud of what we’re doing.

I agree. Now, if you excuse me, I’m rabbis.

I was being front with you when I told you you’re playing against a champion. I’m gonna get you ej. You’re not gonna see me coming.

I am sorry about Rachel. I really have my work cut out with her while she’s made it very clear. She wants me nowhere near you. Chloe. Chloe, that is not her decision, and I’ll make that very clear to her. Her feelings are her feelings. Brady, you know what? Maybe this is the universe saying that you and I shouldn’t be together.

I am not writing anything down until I consult an attorney. Well, that’s your choice, but if I were you, I would do whatever I could to get a lighter sentence is make no mistake. We’ve already got you for two martyrs. Unless Marlena gets a miracle, it’s gonna be three.

Thank you. Ah, try not to cry. Always makes my throat dry. Maybe you should just cry. This is really sad. No, it’s okay.

Having you to talk to has really helped. I’m glad I ran in you today. Me too. And Johnny, I want you to know, and no matter what went on between us, I will always be your friend. Thank you. Really. And you is a friend right now.

We have had a lifetime of wonderful memories, haven’t we got?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

So you think step’s telling the truth, he doesn’t know where his own sister is? Well, his own sister had him brainwashed to smooth out her love life. So my guess is if he knew where she was, he would draw us a map and Chloe would drive us there. So we go back to the beginning. Where the hell is she? I guess this is the part where I’m supposed to think like Kristen Damira.

I’d rather die.

So what do you say, kiddo? You wanna skip down with mommy? Hmm. Hit the throat. Why can’t daddy come with us? Um, do you know how you and Nora Jane sometimes get mad at each other and you don’t wanna play? But you’re still friends. You just need a little timeout. She’s my friend, not my husband. I know that. Um, but the same principles apply.

Daddy and I need a little timeout, so you’re gonna have to choose who you wanna be with. Leave for your daddy.

What is it? Grandma Code blue.

Dam it. She has fluid in her lungs. Let’s sit her up for a Thor and. Is prepper. What are you doing? Eric? I need you to get out of here. I’m leaving and please get him out. I’m leaving. I love you, mom.

Help me.

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

Hey, I got here as fast as I could. How’s.

It’s not good.

I’m sorry.

What’s happening? You can’t be in here, John. Don’t tell me that. Just tell me that she’s gonna make it. I am doing everything I can. She’s in paddles. Clear

honey, listen, I’m, I’m sorry you don’t have much time. You need to make up your mind. We’ll, we’ll come back. It’s just a timeout, right? Of course we will. And daddy’s okay with it? Of course he is. And then YouTube will stop fighting and be happy. Yes, promise. Promise.

I’ll go. Okay, . All right. And I’m gonna make you another promise. I’m gonna do everything to make you so happy. You know that I love you. Well then I can stay, sweetheart. I know Mommy. Didn’t you say we have to hurry? Yes, that is right. Sit the road, Jack.

Oh, leaving so soon

you.

Great job,

John. I’m here. I’m, I’m right here. I’m right here. I’m right here. You’re okay. You just gave us a little bit of a scare, but you pulled right through and now you’re gonna beat. You cannot just fine, just fine.

I knew I shouldn’t have stayed in Johanna’s Break this long. Don’t blame yourself. Claire needed you. No, I’m just, I’m scared because you know, if anything happens to mom, Claire, Claire loves her so much. Do you know that mom emails her every single day? Say, I’m not surprised. I don’t know that she could have relapsed.

I would’ve insisted that Claire come home for the holidays. Now, if we known that she would’ve relapsed, we would’ve done all sorts of things.

Claire missed mom’s last Christmas. Hey. Hey, we don’t know that. Don’t give up yet. Johnny’s in there with Sarah right now. She’s doing all she can do unless anyone murdered Kristen yet, because if not, I volunteer. I think my dad and Steve are in line just ahead of you. Yeah, well, there’s two women. And mom is in there fighting for her life and all for what?

Because Kristen wants to get her claws back into Brady.

I remember when I was little, everyone used to make fun of great grandma Caroline because she was always making a Venus and she, she would say, you can laugh all you want, but I have enough faith for the whole. . She did. She did. Yeah. Yeah. She was always so good at making Bella, and I feel like part of her family, you know, when I was taking my first driver’s test, she gave me one of those, um, them.

Oh God. You wear it around your neck? What is that? Oh yeah. Um, a scapular. Scap. Yeah. Yeah. And she said, Brady, it’s not magic. But it’s just a way for you to tell God that, uh, you need a little help.

Oh, Allie, I need a little help right now. Yeah, me too. I could use some of her faith right now. Cause mine’s, mine’s a little shaky.

Hey, we have to remember that she. Didn’t beat the devil up pretty bad, right? So anyone can do it and get through this. She can.

I’m just gonna turn it off.

It’s ra. Oh, you better take that on. I’ll, I’ll go check on grandma. Yeah.

What’s. Hey. Sorry to bother you. How’s Marlena? She’s not great. Uh, I’m sorry. Look, I’m calling because, um, I need to know if you’ve heard from Kristen. No, no, no. Last, last thing I heard she was hold up at the Damaris. Yeah, we were just there. No sign of her. Why are you looking for her? Because I have a warrant for her arrest.

Hi. Oh. Oh, don’t you love? Beautiful. Oh, and your hair smells like sunshine. You always say that. Well, it always does. I must say . I’m rather taking aback to see the two of you together. Oh, you’re taking aback when a mom brings her child to the park. Not a mom. You honey. Could I speak with your mom for a little?

Whatever. hasn’t skipped your mind that Brady has sole custody of Rachel and he wouldn’t want her to arrange mother anywhere near her. Just kidding. Eddie J. Especially alone with her, she’s my daughter and I have every right to see her. Not legally. Mommy, didn’t you say we have to. Ah, yes, that is right, honey

Oh. Always fun to chat with you. Ej. Wait a minute, where are you going now, mommy of this Mommy, because mommy and daddy, time out.

I’m so glad you made it. Yeah. Well, Shawn asked Victor to send the Titan jet. I’m sure he’ll be cranky as hell when I try to thank him for it, but it was very sweet nonetheless. Well, hi. Hey. Be oh. Thank God you’re here. Yeah, cool. I’s gonna be, um, really happy to see you. Yeah. I only wish I could have gotten here sooner.

Um, so I ran into Sarah outside of grandma’s room and she said that, um, while her condition is stable, um, the care that she’s receiving at this point is, uh, palliative. You mean like hospice? Um, not yet. And they’re monitoring her symptoms, but, uh, I think it’s clear that at this point her only chance of surviving is the second dose of the anode.

Right. Meaning. Meaning she doesn’t have very much time left.

You’re getting worse.

Okay. Just, just save your strength, honey. I know not much time. We have people turning over every rock on this planet To find that organ, all you have to do is hang in there a little while longer for us. Okay, that’s good, girl. Hi.

For as long as I’ve known you, you have never given up, and I’m not gonna let you start now.

Steve Bug the Damara Mansion. Yeah, I heard the tape. Uh, Kristen was pretty broken up about it, said she really didn’t want anyone to die. Yeah. But two people did. Two people did and now Marlena’s hanging on for dear life because of her. I’m sorry. You don’t need this right now. No, we’re great. This is exactly what I need right now.

Listen, the tape did, did she say that she blackmailed me? Did she say that she had the damned orchid? Yes. Did she also say that she told me she would let the three women die if I didn’t knuckle under Brady. We have got her. It’s not just the tape. What? The tape itself. It might actually be tricky to admit into evidence.

What are you telling me? That she’s gonna get away with this again? No. No, because I have spoken with Johnny and he’s gonna corroborate their entire conversation. She, hold on. She talked to Johnny. Yes. Yes. I told you that Kristen was broken up about this thing. She admitted the entire thing to Marlene’s grandson.

And because of Johnny, that’s how you got the warrant. Yes, that’s right. I mean, obviously it’s not gonna do anything to bring back Kate or Kayla or help Marlena, but. At least she’s gonna have to answer for what she’s done and then pay. Listen, if you hear from her, I need you to call me. Don’t do anything on your own.

I mean it. I get it. Good.

Um, how’s Allie

Ray roll? Just kind of like zombies right now. Yeah, I’m bad. Hey, tell her that. Yeah, I’ll tell her that you love her. She, she knows that already. Okay.

How is she, how’s Molina? How’d she do? They were able to stabilize her, but it’s still not good. Um, what did.

Leah sends his love. Mm-hmm. . Yeah. Well, Beth stepped out ever, but that can’t be why he called you. Well, he, uh, he was looking for Kristen to have a warrant for her arrest. Yes.

You and mommy are leaving Salem. They’re going on an adventure. We’re on the lamb. Huh? You know, sweetie, I need to talk to your Uncle EJ for just do, do you mind going over there and playing on the jungle Gym? Don’t you just talk? Yes. Uh, I know we did, but um, it’s important and I promise it’s only gonna take a.

It’s not going, whatever. What the hell do you think you’re doing? I’m taking my daughter on a trip. I’ll tell you all. What are you doing? What do you think I’m doing? I’m calling Brady. Nope.

How’d you know it was me? I’m your mom. Best one ever go, baby. I’m so sorry I wasn’t here. No, no, no, no, no, no. You’re here now baby girl. That’s all that matters.

Step. Leave you too alone for a second.

How’s Claire? Oh, she’s good. She’s okay. She, uh, she sends her love, she knows about, uh, Kayla and Kate, so son and I thought it would be best if she stayed in Johannesburg in case she needs some extra therapy sessions. That’s a good idea. And s his love too. But he wanted to stay with her. Just don’t, uh, we don’t want her to have any setbacks.

Tell her I love her always. Well, you can tell her yourself next time she visits, or who knows, maybe you and I can fly over in a few months and surprise her.

That would be wonderful.

Oh, oh baby. Come here. Come here. Oh, I’ve got you. I’ve got you.

Okay. So Uncle Steve planted a. At the Jams and got a recording of Kristen, telling Johnny everything. Mm-hmm. . I’m surprised he went all that trouble and just didn’t kill her on the spot with his bare of hands. Well, I hope it was worth it. What do you mean? Look, I want Kristen to pay as much as anyone else, and obviously I am no lawyer, but Chanel and I have been binging Law and Order and.

If, if Kristen didn’t know that she was being recorded, there’s a possibility she can get that recording thrown out as evidence. Yes. That is why Rafe made sure that Johnny was willing to corroborate it and he agreed He did. Hmm. Good for him. Wow. So I guess Kristen finally went too far. Yeah. Now all we have to do is find the.

It’s up. Sorry.

Thanks. I’ll keep you posted. I’ve been going over Kristen DER’s case file. Oh, Warren Peace would’ve been shorter. Do you think there might be a moving department? One that tipped her off about the morning. I think there’s been a demira all in Salem PD since time I memorial, so she’s probably going through her mask, wardrobe and planning another escape.

Yeah, the woman’s not a flight risk. She’s a flight certainty, but before we go trying to rip masks off at Salem International Airport, I think we should pay a visit to the one person that Kristen might actually lean on for help.

Are you still playing? Keep. Ah, honey, I thought I told you to go play in the jungle gym. I’m tired of it. I wanna go. Ah, my little girl’s not very patient. Can I say goodbye to Daddy first? Of course you can. That’s why I was just calling him. But I, I was telling your uncle EJ not to. Daddy is very busy because grandma’s sick.

And whose fault is that? God, you’re really getting on my nurse. Um, honey, we’re gonna call daddy from the road. You know, why don’t you say goodbye to Uncle ej? Bye, lij. I’m not gonna let you get away with this. Kristin, it’s kidnapping. Oh my God. Please. Like you didn’t do the same with Sammy. When the mood struck and I saw what it did to my.

I am not gonna let you do that to Rachel. I’m calling Brady. I’m warning you. You call Brady and I will tell s Stephan that you stood by and watched Lee put him through, oh, let’s just say a version therapy, and how do you think Brother Stephan is going to react to that?

Keep steering at that desk. Thank you. I’m just walk. What is happening here? Hey, you know, why don’t she let me take you home? No, just shower. Get some some. We get some rest and I’ll be here. I said no. The only reason I’m not in that room right now is because Bell is in there with her mother, so there’s no way I can rest.

There’s no way that I can, I can do anything except stay close to my wife.

When I was a little girl, Ugh. I love this book so much. It took you forever to read it to me, but you did remember every time you would say the end, I would say again, and you would start at the beginning, the very next night,

and you would read to me until I fell asleep. Just

just made me know how much you love me.

You have been the best mom anyone’s ever had,

so I am gonna do for you what you did for me, and I am gonna start the beginning.

Okay.

When Mary Lennox was sent to miss a white manor to live with her uncle, everyone said she was the most disagreeable looking child ever seen. I wonder which of Stephan’s parents he’ll channel when he’s exacting revenge on you. Father when you least expected or maybe tilt. Or bury you alive. You’ve made your point, so are free to go.

If your conscience won’t stop you, Neith will lie. You’re smart, man. Mommy, we going out. Yes, honey, we can . Bye. I’m again, . Oh. I’m going to miss you.

Don’t worry. It’s just a time out. We won’t be gone forever. Well, bye aj.

So, do the police have any idea where Kristen might be? Doesn’t sound like it. I’m worried that if Kristen knows she has a warrant out for her arrest, she’s gonna try to come and say goodbye to Rachel. Where’s, where’s Rachel now? Her friend Nora Jane’s mom picked her up from school. She knew that I would be here, so she offered to.

Um, does Kristen know that? No, but it would, it wouldn’t be hard for her to figure that out though. I’m, I’m gonna give Leslie a call and just give her a heads up.

Leslie. Hi. It’s, it’s Brady. Listen, she’s, she’s stable. Thank you for, for asking. Appreciate that. Listen, um, There’s a possibility that Kristen may be on her way over there, uh, to, to come pick up Rachel, or listen, under no circumstances. She, what do you mean? Kristen picked her up from school. Oh my God. Hey, I, I had no idea.

Okay. Leslie. Leslie, I, I have to go. I have to go. I’m gonna kill her. I’m gonna kill her.

And across the lawn came the master of Missile White, and he looked as many of them had never seen him, and by his side with his head up in the air and his eyes full of laughter, walked as strongly and steadily as any boy in New Yorkshire MasterCard.

Oh God, that ending gets me every time.

Well, we did it. I read the whole book just like you used to do when I was a little girl.

Mommy, you have to get better.

Come back to me the way calling it to his father, please,

I can’t lose you.

What’s wrong? He’s Kristen. She took Rachel.

Look, my son’s grandmother is dying. If I had that orchid, I would, this isn’t about the orchid. Sick do come in.

So what now? We have a warrant for your sister’s arrest. And what does that have to do with, can you tell us where is she? I don’t know.

Freddie, do you know where she might have gone, where she might be going? If there’s a warrant now for her arrest? My guess is away far, far away. So she knows about the warrant. I have no idea what she does or does not know. Now, if you excuse me, I’m very worried about my son. Well, you should be worried about your niece too.

That was Brady. Apparently Kristen is kidnapped. Rachel.

Okay, here we go. Honestly, goodbye to Grandma Marena and grandpa jumping. You know what? We’ll call them later, but we have to leave right now.

You’re going somewhere.

I always thought it interesting that even though Kristen was adopted, she is so like you

inventive to, Hey Morrow.

And just as fanatical about parenthood as you were,

but I don’t think you played quite enough chess with her. You were always able to see the move after the move, after the next move. I think Kristen is lost if she ever. Her ability to think things through to mix metaphors. She’s badly overplayed her hand and wildly underestimated her opponent.

As dim as Brady is is as as he is.

He’s Kristin’s match in his devotion to Rachel.

I really think that this time, this time she’s going down.

Daddy. Hi Mommy. Mommy said I couldn’t say goodbye to you. Really? Did she? Uh, where were you, uh, where were you going? On a trip for a time out. Really? Hmm. You, Dan now? No. Sweet. I’ve, I’ve been, I’ve been so worried about Grandma that I haven’t had a lot of time to pay attention to what Mommy’s been up to or planning, but since grandma is still in the hospital, I, I don’t think it’s a really good time for you to go anywhere, you know?

So, um, mommy and I definitely need a timeout. So why don’t you go back into your room, take your backpack with you, and you could draw Grandma a really pretty. Because, um, mommy and daddy really do need to talk. Did I do something wrong? No. No, baby. You did not. No, sweetheart, you didn’t. Daddy and I just, we got our wires crossed.

That’s all. I don’t think I ever wanna be a grownup.

Our wires crossed, I think. You would’ve told me that you were int gonna kidnap our daughter. I would’ve remembered that. Let me ask you something to you for one split second. When you’re thinking of pulling off crap like this to you, uh, you ever think about her? Did you give some thought about what it would be like for her to be on the run with a sociopath?

She’s my daughter Brady. And you are gonna take her from me? No, I tried to protect her. Her grandmother’s going to die and it’s going to be your fault. No. Yes, no. And you, you’re gonna have to live the rest of your life knowing that you’re gonna have to trust that. I am not gonna tell Rachel that. You wouldn’t, you wouldn’t.

No, I, you’re right. I wouldn’t. You know why wouldn’t, cuz I’m unlike you. I think about her, I think about her feelings. I think about her happiness. I think about how it would really affect her if she really knew what her mother did and who her mother really. And let me tell you something, Kristin, lately when you pull this kind of crap, I am, I’ve been getting really upset lately.

Like I just might lose control and say anything. So I want you from now on to be very, very careful about pissing me off. Don’t you think that you have the upper hand for one second because you don’t. And this little game, it is over. It’s done. Rafe, my daughter is in the bedroom. Christine Neira, you’re under arrest for that murder.

Kate Brady, Dr. Kayla Johnson. In the attempted murder of Dr. Marlena Evans, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have right to an attorney. If you can’t afford one, one will be provided for you.

Oh, is Brady. He has Rachel. Thank God. And Kristen’s been arrested. Good. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bitch. I don’t know if I should be here. Eric. I am just, I, I just feel so much hate in my heart from that one moment. I don’t. Angers are righteous. It’s a hell of a lot more than anger. Horrible, worthless woman is still out there and Kate and Kayla and grandma.

You know what? I keep thinking about Christmas. You know when we thought we were gonna lose grandma, but we didn’t. It’s with his help. Our prayers were stronger than the devil.

Okay, y’all pray with me.

You’re Almighty God. We come together here today and we, we pray for our mother, our grandmother, for strength. The doctors have said they have done all they can do. I ask you to please help her. We put all our prayer. In your hands.

In the name of the Father, A son in the Holy Spirit. Oh man,

sweetheart.

Kids are in the, I want me to call him,

was reading to me. I guess I fell asleep. Oh, that’s good. You can go back to sleep. It’s good for you.

What?

What do you want, sweetheart?

I want to go home.

Take me.

Oh, you didn’t come down for dinner? I thought you’d stepped out. I was here, but I was dealing with a pair of uninvited guests. Anyone I know, commissioner Hernandez and Detective Hunt. Again, they were here before. Yeah. Looking for Kristen. , did they tell you the good news? They have an arrest warrant for your sister, but they can’t find her?

They were hoping I could help them out with that. And could you?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Well, well, well, if it isn’t exactly the person I wanted to see, Mel, I can’t say the same. Haven’t I stack Valley? Not, not so quick. Kristen, you and I need to talk about how you try to steal my life. God, no. After everything that Kristen has done, I can’t believe I loved her. How the hell am I supposed to face Roman and Steve?

Hey, hey, none of this, none of this is your fault. You know that, right? This is Kristen. Kristen is the reason that they lost their, their wife’s. Yeah. And now I’m afraid that my dad is gonna join him. Hey, grandpa. John is gonna find a way to save grandma somehow. Yeah, I’m gonna check on him. I think you went to the chapel to to pray.

Ah, tell em I’m praying for too. I will. Thank you. Yeah,

that was Indonesian authorities still no sign off. They’ve searched every inch of his secret lab and every Dememer property in the region, but he’s in the wind. Has a mastermind at disappearing this time. He had the help of my new brother-in-law. You can’t talk to her like that. You owe the lady an apology.

You’re right, Lee. I’m sorry. Gabby, I’m sorry that you’re nothing but a cold bottom feeding snake who only gives a damn about yourself. What did you say? Okay, that’s enough.

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

Well guess we’re even. What does that mean? It means that Lee here must have gotten his ego bruised when I knocked him on his ass earlier. Really? This isn’t about what you did to me. This is about what you did to Gabby . What? What I did to Gabby. Suddenly, you’re the hero of this story. What you come riding to arrest?

Because they said a couple of mean things. You who lied to? Who rewired my brain so that I would hate her. You know, the funny thing is you probably didn’t need to do any of that because considering who Gabby is, I probably would’ve ended up hating her on my own. Save it. You two deserve each other.

Are you all right? I’m fine. He’s wrong about you, Gabby. I know who you really are.

I promised Gabby that I was gonna make Lee pay for what he did. Without Ralph corroborating her story about Stephan’s brainwashing, there’s not enough evidence to prosecute El. He gets away with it. Why don’t you arrest his accomplice? Kristin Damara instead.

And I’m really quite busy and not in the mood for this. You know what? I don’t give a damn. We have a lot to catch up on. Ah, hard pass. Uh, where do I begin? How about you Blackmailing Brady into dumping me, threatening the people that he loves so that you could move into his home. And let’s not forget about you having your own brother, Stephan Brainwashed.

So he would distract me away from Brady. You know, maybe you could put this in a strongly worded email. God, it’s so much better saying it to your face. Oh God. Are you done? Done? Yeah, done. No, I’m just getting started. Oh, kitty. Because none of that compares to what you did to Kate and Kayla, thanks to you hiding that orchid.

Two innocent women are. And your original bargaining chip, Marlena, that poor woman is barely clinging to life. So what do you have to say about any of this? I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Death.

I’m so, I’m sorry to interrupt.

Something happened to. No, no, there’s, uh, there’s no change. I, I, I just wanted to check up on you.

How are you guys? How you doing? You holding up?

Come on. I’m okay, man. Yeah.

Oh, I’m not good kid. I can’t believe that I’m

Allie. Hey. How’s grandma? The same. Will and Eric are in there with her now. I didn’t wanna leave the room, but she’s only allowed two visitors at a time. Well, I’m sure they’ll, uh, they’ll let us know if anything changes. Yeah. Hey, okay,

Johnny, what are we gonna do if she doesn’t get better? I mean, what are we supposed to do without her?

I’m so sorry.

We’re No, I mean, it’s my fault. It’s my fault she’s in that hospital. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Just for for months. I, I, I let Kristen hold that’s serum over my head. I didn’t say a damn word. Son. You were in an impossible situation. Dad. I, I made the wrong choice. You knew you tried to help me. You, you, you, you knew that there.

There was something I was hiding. There was a reason why I let Kristen inside the house. You knew it’s only cause it didn’t seem like you to change your mind about her. So suddenly I wanted to tell you the truth. So many times. So many times. I know that I keep thinking about the time when I found you going through all her stuff.

Yeah, that was, that was the day. That was the day I almost told you everything. Yeah, I know. And then she walked in. I’m telling you kid, it was like, she just just sucked the life right outta you. I caved. We caved to her threats over and over and over again. I just thinking to myself, I should, I should have, I should have just told you.

I should have told you what I knew about Kristen having you Orchid. I should have taken the risk, but I didn’t. But now we’re in this position. Kate and Kale are gone. Kristen should be locked up. Maybe that’s where we would be, but I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.

So you’re just gonna act like, I don’t know what you did. Is that how we’re playing this ? Honestly, Chloe, I have no idea what you’re talking about. I mean, what great stories you made of such an imagination. Brady told me everything. How you blackmailed him into threatening to withhold the treatment. How you had him on the hook this entire time until he had no choice but to take Rachel.

It was only then that you finally agreed to bring him the orchid. Okay. I really don’t know what to say. I mean, none of this sounds familiar. No, no. You did not get to do that. You did not get to act like none of it happened. Yes, none of it did happen. Honey, my God. You are starting to come unhinged.

Sweetheart. I know you do not get to gaslight me. You do not get to upend my entire life and cause death and destruction, and then pretend like it never happened. Well, you know what? Again, I don’t know what to tell you, but it is time for you to do it. The rope, don’t touch me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What you gonna do, Chloe? Kill me. You know what? I just might.

Kristen is a murder. I understand. I know you blame her for Kate and Kayla’s deaths. She’s the reason they’re gone. She had that orchid. She had a chance to save them, and she chose not to. Steve. I am as disgusted by what she did as anyone, but I can’t arrest her. Why not? Because everything we know about what Kristen did is secondhand.

We have no direct evidence from her. No confession from her or her accomplices. Actually we do.

Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marlena or the other women. I swear to you.

Look, I will admit I hate the orchid. Knowing that these women would need more doses of the serum, sounds like a confession.

So, where’d you get that recording? I acquired it myself. Planted a bug in the demer, matched in you and Kristen just admitted everything. Well, not directly to me. I knew she would never admit what she did, and while I was there, I might have, uh, caused a slight distraction. And do I want to know what? It was better that you don’t ask.

Right. So you planted a bug while she was distracted. Yeah. And sure enough, as soon as I left, she spilled everything to her nephew, Johnny. So she’s talking to Johnny on that recording. That’s right. And now we’ve got a confession straight from the horse’s. Well, that’s great. That’s great. This just confirms everything that we believed about Kristen and the orchid.

There is just one problem. We can’t use it.

I keep thinking, I’m so grateful that Grandma Kate and I were on good terms in the end, and I was so upset with her for keeping quiet about my dad. Kidnapping mom. Yeah. How were you able to get past. I just realized that she wasn’t trying to hurt me. She was protecting my dad, and I’m so grateful that I got past it because I was able to tell her that I forgive her and I love her.

You know, if I, if I hadn’t been able to tell her that, Hey, hey, hey, hey. She knew. She always knew, just like Grandma Marlena knows how much we love her, but Johnny, it’s not enough. I don’t wanna just remember what we had, I want, I want it to go on, you know, I wanna make new memories. I want more.

I was, I was in constant fear that if I told you about what Kristen was doing, that she would just, she would just destroy the flower. The orchid and she would let them all get sick again. But hell, it happened Anyway. It happened and it’s all on me. It’s on my head because I, I didn’t have the guts to come and tell you, Don, stop.

That’s, that’s the deal. Stop right there and listen to me. You listened to me. I’m listening. You got nothing to apologize for. Kristin was, was threatening Marlena’s life. If you would’ve told me who knows what she would’ve. Maybe you and I could have figured out something together though. That’s why I should Maybe, maybe.

What if she was watching? Well, I don’t know. What if she got surveillance or cameras on the house? You know how resourceful she is? If you No, that’s, you’re the one that’s, you are the reason Doc Kate and Kayla survived the first time. You sacrificed your happiness for them. If you didn’t make that sacrifice, they wouldn’t have gotten the treatment and we would’ve lost them months ago.

You are the only reason Kristin didn’t let Marla die.

Admit it. Admit that you let them. Come on, put the poker down. Chloe. We both know that you’re not going to kill anyone. Really. Really? I’ve done it before. Don’t underestimate me, Chloe. The hell are you doing? Doing what I should have done years ago. Take my life back. She’s lost her mind. Shut up. She’s acting like nothing happened.

Like we don’t all know that she’s a murderer. We don’t. Why not? Because no matter what Kristen has done, and we both know she’s done some terrible things, that poker is not the answer. He’s right. You know, you shut your mouth. Okay, Chloe, think about this. Think about your son. You have too much to live for you.

Do you say you wanna take your life back? This is not the way to do it.

I, I need, I need.

Oh, Stephan, thank you. Thank God you came when you did. Oh, thank me. You’re lucky I don’t use Sonny myself. I should go. Wait. Why was Stefan so angry at you? I thought you convinced him to get his programmer first. I thought so too. So what happened? We couldn’t find Ralph. Okay? And then I had this idea that maybe Marlina could reverse it somehow.

So I went over to the hospital to ask for help. Isn’t she very sick? I I wasn’t asking her to go clubbing. I was asking for her help. This is what she does. She helps people. And you know what? I could, I could argue that by asking her, it was giving her purpose and, and hope. I know your intentions were good, Gabby.

You’re a passionate person. You go after what you want. Stephan had no right to lash out at you like. You don’t deserve that. Well, this isn’t about what I deserve. What is it about now? Sorry. No. What? Nope, nope, no, to you. Defending me, comforting me, telling me I’m a good, passionate person, and that Stephan is, is treating me the wrong way.

Well, he’s treating me this way because of what you did to. Gabby, wait. Oh. Oh, wow.

I keep thinking about how many times Grandma Marlina helped me save me. Really, like when I started to remember what happened in London. I mean, there’s no way that I could have gotten through remembering what Charlie did to me if it wasn’t for her. Yeah, I know she used, uh, hypnosis to help you recover your memories from that night.

Yeah, but I mean, it wasn’t the hypnosis, it was just her being there, you know, making me feel so safe and so loved. Like it was, it was really her strength that got me there. It gave me the courage to remember, it’s her love and her strength that allowed me to accept what happened to me. And then she helped you.

I really don’t think I would’ve been able to rebuild my life if it wasn’t for her. Be a good mom to Henry, start my own business. Yeah, man. She has done that for so many people in our family, in our town. Well, we, we got to call her grandma, but to everyone else, she was a friend. A. My hero.

I just hope that, uh, while she’s lying there in that bed, she can feel all the love of, of everyone whose life she’s touched.

See, I’m not upset with the choices you made. In fact, I am. I am grateful. For what you did GR doc, I mean, son, you gave up the woman you love for her. Yeah, but she’s your life dad. You know how hard it is for me to, to, to see you like this, afraid that you’re going, that’s not gonna happen. You, you said earlier that Yeah, yeah.

I know. You cut me in a moment of weakness here. You’re your stepmother. She’s a fighter and she’s got more fight in her than. Our story is far from over. Trust me. I trust you. I believe that

speaking of our story, I, I’ve been doing nothing but thinking about our lives together as a family, , and I’ve, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking about all the crap that I gave Marla back in the day when I was a kid. You butted heads now and then. Now, and then . Really? Now, and then, all right. You were a handful.

Yeah.

How if that matters, now does, it doesn’t, I don’t even think I gotta tell you this, but you know that I love her like my mom. Right? I know that. That’s why Kristen threatened. She knew that you would do anything. Well, she would’ve done the same thing for

what’s wrong. It’s nothing. What did you hurt your hand punching step? It’s, it’s fine. It. All right, let me see it. Lemme see it. Your knuckles look bad. Might need an x-ray. He’s got a hard head. Tell me about it. Luckily you’re not a surgeon or a piano player, so you’ll be able to sign a mayor paperwork.

You’re assuming I still have a job there. Oh, you’ll find work. Can you make a fist?

It was worth it. I’m glad you think so. You know, nobody asked you to defend my. Nobody had to. I’ll just go get some ice. That’s fine. Stay here. I’ll get it.

So you gonna gaslight me now too? Tell me you weren’t part of this scheme to monkey with my brain. Nah, I was just playing with Chloe. You and I are family. We can speak honestly with each other. Right? Well, I can honestly say if Chloe used this on you, you would’ve deserved it. Wow. So now you are here to take revenge on me too.

Oh, I think I’m entitled, don’t you? After everything you did to me also, you could hold on to Brady. Oh, I’m sure. If we thought really hard, we could come up with many things you’ve done in the name of love. I have never withheld lifesaving medical treatment for three innocent women. Okay. I gave them the Sierra, and yet two of them are dead.

All because you couldn’t stand the fact that Chloe and Brady were together. Brady and I share a daughter. A daughter. They kept from me. Now, if you had a child, you would understand, from what I understand, Brady’s kicked you out and there is no coming back from this one. Especially not if Marlena dies. So I’m just supposed to let Rachel go.

Seems like your only option. Brady has full custody and any judge worth his soul will see too. You’re not allowed near that little girl, and if there’s any justice, you never will be.

Who the hell do you think you are? I’m the son of a bitch you can’t control anymore. I can’t even stand and look at you. Get outta my sight.

Get out.

So you recorded this without Kristen’s permission. There was kind of the point. We don’t have any kind of warrant for a listening device at that the mayor mentioned. You know, as well as I do, this constitutes an illegal search. Isn’t a recording considered admissible in this state? If one of the parties gives consent?

Are you saying that Johnny was aware that you planted the bug when he got Kristen to confess? Steve, it’s possible and I bet if you went to him right now and explain the situation, no, it does not work that way. I can’t falsify evidence. This confession is real. Ray, why don’t you use it to pressure Kristen into pleading guilty?

No, she’s too cagey for that. Okay, then go to the da. She’s never been shy about bending the rules. There must be some backdoor to getting this confession into evidence. Steve, I can’t do it. The law is the law. Actually. I may have a loophole we can use.

Hey, you know what’s funny is I spent all that time trying to make that movie about grandma’s life. I picked the wrong thing to focus on. I wrote a script about the. Worst stuff that ever happened to her, cuz I thought it’d be, I don’t know, scary or cool. People would wanna watch it. Yeah. Well you got the scary part, right?

I mean, we both know that from experience. Yeah, yeah, I know. But, but the Marlene Heavens story could have been about so many other things. The story of a woman who changed the world, who witnessed tragedy, who suffered heartbreak, and never let it change. Now the story of an icon. I watched that movie. Uh

uh Rafe. What’s up? Hey Johnny, are you available to come down to the station right now? Yeah, pretty. I. Sure. Yeah, I’ll be right there.

Is everything okay? I don’t know. Uh, RA just asked me to go down to the station. I told him I would, but I No, go ahead. You sure you’re gonna be okay here? No, but a lot of people love grandma and, um, I have a lot of friends and family I can lean on. Right.

I love you. I love you.

You know what really bugs me about this whole thing though. I should have forced Kristen’s hands sooner. You still can’t blame yourself for that. I knew. I knew that Marlene and the others, that they were gonna need another dose of the serum. Eventually, if I’d have done something sooner, we would’ve gotten to the orchid in time, you know?

And I didn’t do, you know, second guessing yourself isn’t gonna do anybody and could besides you did do something, you and your brother that was, that was Eric’s idea. He knew that Rachel would be our best bargaining. And that Kristen would do anything.

Oh my goodness. Here we go. This is the best hot chapter ever. Mommy. Oh, well I told you I was gonna be taking you somewhere fun, didn’t I? The daddy said, Nora Jane’s mom was supposed to pick me up from school. Why’d you come instead? Well, your daddy has had you all to himself for the past few days and uh, I wanted quality time with my best girl.

why’d you leave the house? Daddy said it was because you did bad things. Is that what daddy said?

Well, sweetheart, you’re a big girl now, and I can be honest with you.

The reason that I had to leave was because of Chloe. I don’t like her. I I know sweetheart. I know I don’t like her either. She’s selfish and dangerous, but she is the reason. Why we can’t be together. Thought you could use this. Thanks. Did I just threaten to murder Kristen with a fireplace poker? You did? I don’t know.

It’s just she was pretending like she’s innocent and then taunting me and I just lost it. What was I thinking? Well, you said you were trying to take back your. by murdering someone maybe not the most effective strategy. God, there’s just something about that woman. Every time I’m near her, I just lose all capability of rational thought.

Are you freaked out? Are you kidding? When I walked in here and saw you wielding that poker, I thought it was, please don’t say sexy or something equally weird. No, I was actually going to say Badass Noble. After everything Kristen has put you through, you are more than justified to take up arms, but she’s put us both through.

Speaking of, have you spoken to Gabby? Were you able to get Ralph’s programming reversed? Hi, asked you this for some mice and she let me fill up the book. I really appreciate it. It means a lot. You, you didn’t have to do this. Mm-hmm. , what the hell? Oh, you thought I was gonna help you, didn’t you? After everything that you’ve done to me.

Hey, John, Johnny. Hey, thanks for calling Matt. Yeah, yeah, of course. Well, what’s. Uh, well, Steve has some potential evidence and uh, we’d like you to hear it. Okay.

Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marna or the other women. I swear to you.

Look, I will admit I hid the organ knowing that these women would need more doses of the. But I wasn’t gonna withhold it if they got sick. I swear to you, I never wanted those women dead. Yeah, maybe not. But that’s what happened. How’d you get that when you interrupted Kristen and me at the mansion earlier?

You planted a recording device. I couldn’t let Kristen get away with what she did. She had that orchid and she let them die. It was the only way to get justice for. I understand. So what I mean, this means you guys can use the recording to nail Kristen. No, not exactly. That’s where you come in. I don’t understand.

Technically this recording is inadmissible in a court of law was made without either person’s consent. Assuming you didn’t know about the bugeye plant, Steve, well maybe you saw me. We don’t know. I just wanna make sure that no one is asking you to lie here and you know that, okay, so, so what does that mean?

What, what can I do you heard Kristen say these things directly? That means is not hearsay.

Are you asking me to testify in court against my aunt? No. No. Exactly. What we need is a sworn statement from you. That you had a conversation with Kristen about the orchid and that this is the conversation and well, that should be enough to get an arrest warrant for her. You willing to do that? Of course, I’ll do it.

I did speak to Gabby. And I don’t think it’s gonna be so easy to undo what Rolf did. Apparently Lee sent Dr. Rolf to parts unknown. Not even the cops have any leads. Ugh. Well, Brady said that Gabby thinks that maybe Marlena could have it reversed. Ilene is practically on her deathbed. You think Gabby gave a damn about that?

Well, you know Gabby, when she wants something very little stands in her way. I’ve noticed that too. I’m sorry. You’ve hit a dead end. Actually, I’m kind of relieved really. Gabby said that you’d made up your mind that you wanted to be deprogrammed. I did, man. When I found proof of what Rolf had done to my brain, I, I felt violated.

I wanted to get back to normal. Normal meaning the guy who fell in love with Gabby. Except when I just saw her, I was only repulsed. Well, that could be because Ralph’s commands are still in your head. No, I was repulsed by her actions today. The fact that she’s so blinded by what she wants, that she didn’t even take a second to think about what Marlena’s family was going through.

Can’t be with somebody.

What about you? What about me?

Now that you know, I’m Brady dumped you because of Kristen’s blackmailing, does that mean you wanna be back with him?

No. We can spend the rest of our lives playing Monday morning. Quarterback,

do you have any idea how many regrets I have a number of things I wish that I could take back if I Sure, sure.

But Kate and Kayla, they’re gone. Dad, there’s no way to take that back. No.

And Doc doesn’t have any time to lose. That’s why all my energy right now has to go into just getting her home happy and healthy. Is there any, is there anything that I can do? You’re doing everything just by being here, kid

What the doctors saying anyway, what’s what they say? They’re just giving her the best care they can. While I’ve got every Black patch agent out there trying to find that damn Dr. Roth on that lifesaving orchid,

then there’s, we’re doing all we can do right.

You’re right. I shouldn’t have expected you to help me. Not after all the lies. I told you that. Why are you smiling ? Sorry. It’s, it’s just. The thing I’ve been the most afraid of isn’t that you’re angry at me. It was that you didn’t care anymore, but the passion was gone. But you went to the Salem in filled a bucket with ice just so you could make me think you were going to help only to dump it on my head.

That’s not passion. I don’t know what is.

I did talk to Brady. He explained how he never stopped loving me and how it was torture when Kristen forced him to end our relationship. He asked if I would take him back, if we could pick up where we left. And what’d you tell him? I told him that when he broke up with me, my heart was broken. I felt like my entire life was just falling apart.

And then you were there and you, you helped me put it back together again. You helped me heal and. I developed feelings for you. Real feelings. I’m glad to hear you say that. Well, Gabby would say that you only care about me because you were programmed too at first. Sure. But I am not a machine. My feelings can grow.

They can change. And my feelings for you are very strong and real, too.

Chloe, you’re the only one I wanna be.

Thanks. I want to thank you for doing this, Johnny. I know Kristen’s your family. Hey, you’re family too. And so was aunt.

She’d be proud of you right now. I hope so. I, I want you to know I will do whatever I can to get justice for her, even if it means sending my aunt Kristin to prison forever.

And Carol’s off today. Which means I’m getting that.

Ah, morning Stephan Detective Commissioner. What can I do for you? Well, we have a warrant for the arrest of Kristen Damira. Sorry, she’s not here. Where is she?

So I can’t see you anymore because of Chloe. Yeah, that’s right. She told you daddy to make me leave and go away. I want a family to be together. I know you do, sweetheart. So do I. But that’s not gonna happen right now. But you know what? The two of us can be together. Just me and you. Mm-hmm. like two peas in a pod.

Only if we are together, we can’t stay here anymore. So what do you say? We love this hot cocoa. And leave SE alone together.

Grandpa, what is it? What’s wrong? You both have to come. Right now it’s from Marlena.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Could your grandma Marlan is hanging in there buddy? She’s got a lot of good doctors around her trying to do everything they can to help. Hey, I, I know you’re scared, Tate. I, um, you just gotta think good thoughts, buddy. That’s, that’s what she needs right now. And I appreciate you calling and checking on everyone.

Sweet of you.

Bye son. Oh God. Brady, Gabby. What? What? What’s wrong? I need to see Marlene now.

Father, of course, I’m not proud of what I’ve done, but I won’t go down for anything. The police can’t prove that I was working with Dr. Rolf and that’s how it’s gonna stay. You don’t have to worry about that either. I position as ej Dara’s second in command is completely intact. Yes, I’m aware. I made an enemy of his brother Stephan.

Arrest assured I can handle him.

I have to go. That might be Gabby.

Harold, can you get that?

It’s time for you to answer for what you did to Kayla.

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

Hey,

what, uh, what brings you by? I’m just invited to make something up for breakfast. I thought you’d be at the hospital. Yeah, I, I was, uh, I was there all night. Um, I just, I, I, I came by to check on my grandpa Roman. I’m sure he appreciated that. Can’t losing. His wife and his sister on the same day. It’s unimaginable.

How are you doing? Ah, I’m, I’m okay. You don’t look okay. I mean, clearly you haven’t slept once. Last a. I, I, I don’t remember.

It’s green that you wanna be there for your family. You have to take care of yourself too. Yeah,

I know. I know. I just, uh, I can’t stop thinking about my grandma, Marna. Well, what are the doctors saying? Has she made any improvement?

Gabby, my lane is in critical condition. Okay. Visitation is strictly limited. This is urgent. Everything depends on it. I don’t understand. Come on. Do I have to spell it out for you? Brady? You were at my wedding when I remembered that Lee brainwashed Stephan into hating me, and, and Stefan wants it undone.

Rolf is Mia a and I need somebody else, namely the renowned Dr. Marlena Evans to make it. So this is about your love life. Are you out of your freaking mind?

You know, this might sound crazy, but I’m glad you’re here. We have a lot to discuss. Clearly you’re angry, which is completely understandable, but I’m confident we can be adults about this. Let’s just have a conversation and hash this out a conversation. Uh, I don’t think so.

I didn’t know you guys were getting in so early I would’ve picked you up. No, no, it’s fine. Airport Ron. Morning rush. You didn’t need that. On top of everything else, I’m just so glad you’re both here. Papa really needs us now. Where’s he? He got up early and went out. I think he needed some time alone. Steve, you don’t wanna do this, I feel for you.

I really do, and I am so sorry for. Sorry. Sorry. Won’t bring my wife back. You knew those women would need boosters to survive and you said nothing. Okay. Just take it easy. Selfish, pathetic, psycho. You couldn’t get Brady to love you, so you decided to blackmail them. You held three lives over his. Meanwhile, that virus was ticking away.

But you didn’t care, did you? No, I did care. Oh, you didn’t care. The only person you cared about was yourself.

If you weren’t so cold blooded at the Ranged, you know, Marlena would be home right now. Kate would be alive, my wife would be alive. Took away the love of my. The mother of my children, then now you need to pay.

I’ve never seen Papa like this before. His instinct as a father, as a pi, you know, is to solve it. Find the solution that’ll make everything okay again. But he can’t this time. We gotta take that stress off him, let him know we’re gonna be okay, and we have to take care of him too. We. Starting the minute he walks through that door.

Look, guys, I, I’m here for that a thousand percent, but while he is out, I need, I need to go see my mom. I’m all, she has left and I can’t turn my back on her. Of course. Thanks. Uh, I won’t be long.

What’s this? A note from mom. Be careful with it. Okay, Steph. Sorry. It’s just she wrote that the day that she, those are her last words to me. Hey, what do you mean? I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to her. Someone robbed me of that.

My grandma, Marlene is not saying goodbye yet. She’s, uh, . She’s, she’s fighting with everything she has and she will win. I mean, this is a woman who beat the devil twice. Yeah. Yeah. But, uh, Wendy, this is, this is bad. This is a deadly disease that they don’t know how to treat. I mean, her doctors are, Obviously, but it’s all experimental.

You know, they’re just, it’s like just throwing everything at it and hoping something works well, something will.

Yeah. That’s what I’m praying for.

Look, I, I wish I could stay and talk more, but I, I really gotta go, go be with your family. Uh oh. Uh, The last time I saw you, you were headed over to Gabby’s, talked to her about giving Lee a second chance. How’d that go? Yeah. Stephan got there before I did. Oh, no. So what he told her that we knew about the brainwashing before the wedding.

E. Yep. So she tore into me and then throw me out. At least should try. Right. But like I told, He and Gabby getting back together, it’s not gonna happen. There’s only one person she wants to be with now.

Ah, , guess I deserve that. Although violence doesn’t seem like stopped, it’s not other way. We’ll say. Connecting with your glass jaw was extremely satisfying. Uh,

relax, pal. I’m not gonna hit you again.

Hello. It is tempting. It’s not every day you find out you were brainwashed.

If you tell anyone who said this, I will deny, deny, deny, but I’m sorry. I know it’s no excuse, but I was desperate. I was desperately in love with Gabby and terrified I would lose her in love. Will have you do some pretty crazy things. In your case, it wasn’t just brainwashing, it was attempted murder.

Do you know that you turned off the machines keeping me alive? You’re damn right. I know.

You know, suddenly I’m thinking maybe one punch wasn’t.

This isn’t about me or my love life. This is about Stephan. I’m sorry to disappoint you, Gabby, but Stephan is not a priority right now. Really, I’m surprised with everything your father’s gone through. You have no compassion for a brainwashed man. Lee took away Stephan’s free will. His ability to, to decide what he feels and he wants it undone.

He wants his mind to be right again. He needs help and I know Marlena would wanna help him. And Gavin, you, you, you know what Marlena wants? She wants not to die. Just like the two women for her who had the disease did. I don’t see the harm in just letting me ask her. I can’t, I can’t flip you serious right now.

She’s hanging on by. She needs every ounce of energy she can possibly muster. Just to stay conscious, you want to just skip the whole death door thing and and book a session with her. You just stop to think how insane that is right now that you’re thinking that, Brady, you need to think about this.

Because Stephan wasn’t just programmed to hate me. He was programmed to love Chloe. So once he’s back to normal, she’s gonna be available again. More unbelievable. I’m sorry, I thought that was gonna make this urgent for you too, but apparently you don’t love Chloe anymore. Of course. I love.

Oh my. I trip . Oh, I’m so happy to see you. . When did you get in? I just said a little while ago. So sorry about your stepmother. I know you two are really close. Thanks. None of us ever imagined that she could relapse, let alone, uh, I just wish I’d been here anyway. Uh, how are you? How are, how are you doing? I’m okay.

Yeah. I heard, uh, some stuff about your brother. I wasn’t really sure if it was true. It seemed pretty out there. Ah, it’s, hmm. Sorry. That sounds rough. Oh, you’d learned one lesson. Stay the hell out of other people’s lives. Hey, what’s going on? Nothing. Gabby and I are just, uh, talking about nothing important.

Lease not to. . Okay. Well I was just here to check on Marlene and see if there’s anything I can do. No, it’s good that someone is here for the right reasons. Am I missing something? Just a wild display of selfishness on Gabby’s part. It’s actually the opposite of selfish. I’m trying to help somebody to care about, she wants Stephan back.

No, shocker. But she thinks the way to do that is to go bug Marlena right now. And that’s not gonna happen. What? You know, forget it. I, I’m leaving. Okay. Chloe, just a heads up. Stephan wants to be the programmed and I will make it happen. So it’s not a question of if he walks away from you, but when Wow, you’re awfully confident.

Yeah, true love always wins.

You’re not gonna deny it, are you? Ah, I pulled the plug. Still can’t believe it. Look, if her, both of us, your sister showed up when she did. Otherwise I’d be dead. Look, you have to understand I wasn’t in my right mind. All I could think was if you came back, the woman I loved would no longer be mine. And as I said before, it’s not an excuse.

I know what I did was reprehensible, but it was a moment of mad. I’m no murderer. Hmm. So you’re going with temporary insanity. That’s what it was. I swear and I regret it. All of it. I mean that s Stephan, I wish there was something I could do to make it up to you. There is Marlena Evans is in the hospital dying of a terrible disease and I need to reverse what was done to.

And there’s one person who can do both. Who? Dr. Rolf, you wanna make up for what you’ve done? You’re gonna help me find him. Sorry, I have no idea where Rolf is. Maybe you should ask your sister. You’re scaring me, Steve. Oh, look. I would’ve done anything to help this woman. I swear to you. We’re going. You swear.

I swear. You do. I do. Really? And why didn’t you come to us with that orchid so we could have made more serum to save their lives? I’ll tell you why. Because you would’ve lost your leverage over Brady. Stop, please. Spiteful bitch. Bitch, you that orchid wasn’t even stolen. I bet you have it hidden somewhere waiting for Marlena to die.

But you love having that power, don’t you? Power to take lives. Guess who has that power? Now? You have made so many innocent people suffer. Now it’s your turn. I want you to think about your family, your. Knowing it’s about to slip away, excuse me.

Please don’t do anything you’re gonna regret, please. Oh,

Alex turned off your phone. That is so unbelievably wrong. I know. I could have been with mom, I could have been comforting her. I could. Holding her hand, telling her how much I love her.

She gave me this when she was sick the first time around. Yeah, I remember It’s Grandma Caroline’s.

I told her I’d give it back to her as soon as she got better, but I didn’t. How much more thoughtless could I be? No, Steph. She gave me this beautiful, generous gesture, and I told her I would do something for her in return, and I just forgot. Once mom got better, I, I took it for granted that she’d stay that way.

Maybe she thinks that’s why I wasn’t there in the end, because I was being so casual and cavalier about it all. I assumed since she got better, once she’d get better again, so it blew her off. Steph. Hey, look at me. Mom would never think that it’s not your fault. You weren’t there. It’s Alex’s God. I never should have gotten involved with him.

Yeah, I was surprised you did. Honestly, after that last guy, I mean, you just said you weren’t ready to get involved with anyone yet. And I wasn’t, and I told Alex numerous times that I, I wasn’t interested in him and that I didn’t wanna date anybody that I worked. So then what happened? He wore me down. I guess he was just so damn persistent.

I decided to give it a shot. Look where that got me. How does that feel? How do you think Kayla felt when she took her last breath? Well, Steve Scott, stop.

Why would Chris know where Rolf is? She employed him for years, but you set him up in Jakarta. It makes sense. That you would move him when things got hot. I can see why you’d think that, but I was surprised as anyone to learn he’d taken off. Must have been a huge relief that he was gone by the time a Indonesian authority showed up.

Huh? Wouldn’t want him flipping on you. You know, I bet I could tear this entire room to shreds and not find a single piece of evidence linking you to Roth. I’m telling you, I don’t know where he is and you’re not in contact. No, obviously you got spooked and went off the grid. If I, if I knew anything, anything at all, I’d tell you, but I don’t, you believe me.

Right. I’ll put it this way. If I find out that you were lying, that punch you just got or feel like a pat on the back compared to what’s coming your way.

You’re gonna want to clear out your desk at Dara. That’s not your call. Ejs the only one who can fire me. You think ejs gonna let you stay on after what you’ve done? Nothing is more important to EJ Dara than family. Nothing.

Nothing more important than covered his own ass.

Rolf, it’s me. So Gabby wants Marlena to undo what Rolf did to step him. She actually thought she could just sail into Marlena’s room and just make her. I mean, I, I shot her down. That’s why she was nastier than usual. Oh, well, she was reason to be nastier to me than usual since I’m with the love of her life.

Yeah. It’s hard to forget. I’m sorry, Brady, that came out the wrong way. It’s, it’s okay. You came here to see Marlina. Yeah. But I know that you’re going through a lot right now too, so I wanted to check on you. I appreciate that. I mean, I mean, does that mean you ? No, uh, sorry, I, I’m not gonna make a fool outta myself.

No, no. Brady, you were never full, and I’m assuming that you wanted to ask me if I had changed my mind about you.

So I’m guessing things with Alex got serious pretty quickly. And that’s why what he did hurts so much. But whatever pain he’s caused me seems so small compared to, it feels wrong to even talk about it. It’s probably because the person you normally talk to about these kinds of things, he’s gone.

She was our rock.

And not to judge dad, but wasn’t always there. Mom was the constant.

Now we have to find a way to be okay without her hop a will too.

It’s just us now.

Damn it. What the hell are you trying to do? Do you, do you, do you want to go to prison? Johnny, listen. You, you need to stay away from Kristen.

Hey. Hey. Just try to catch your breath.

Alright. Hell with. She deserved it. You need to go. Are you defending her after what she did now? Okay, go ahead. You take care of the monster. Who killed your aunt Kayla and Kate. Don’t you forget your grandmother might be next.

Thank you. Thank you. You’re saving my life and I didn’t do it for you. I did it for Steve.

So how’s your dad? Uh, I haven’t actually seen him yet. Uh, he wasn’t home when Joey and I got there, so I thought I’d come by and see Roman and pay my respects. Uh, do you know if he’s around? Yeah. Johnny Damara was just here a little while ago to check up on him. It’s like the saddest trip to Salem ever.

From here. I’m going to baby to see my mom. You want me to come with you? I could. Uh, wait outside until you’re done. No, no. That’s very sweet of you. I can handle it. You sure? Yeah. They might not even let me in. Uh, they said that it would depend on the state that she’s in when I get there. Oh, man. Yeah. She probably hasn’t had a single visitor since she was admitted, which I totally understand.

I mean, she’s done some terrible things. I I can’t just abandon her. I know what you mean. People will definitely judge me for standing by my brother’s side after what he did, but I can’t desert him. You know, pretty much all he has left. Is there anything I can do? Thanks. But uh, this is Lee’s mess and I’m pretty sure if there was any way you could clean it up, you would.

Don’t worry, Ralph, I’m on a burner phone. No one’s gonna trace this call to your new location. Well, I’m sorry, you were starting to like Jakarta, but you needed to be moved. Fair warning, Stefan Damara suspects. I know where you are. I’m doing everything that I can to convince him otherwise, but you need to do your part two.

Anyone shows up and starts asking questions. You’ve never heard of me.

Are you visiting Chloe? No, I was in Lee’s room trying to see if I could find out where Rolf disappeared. . So you’re still on board with getting the brainwashing reversed. I am. Although your husband was no help. So I don’t know if it’s gonna happen. Well, my soon to be ex-husband and it will because we will find a way.

We make a great team. Remember actually, Gabby, I don’t right. I’m, I’m sorry. Four choice of words. What I meant was, Gabby, I think I need to reiterate something because it doesn’t seem to be sinking in. I love Chloe. She’s the woman I want to be with. Whether or not we find Rolf, it’s not gonna change. We’ll see, and actually I was doing something overtime myself trying to find Wolf, and I hit a big old wall at the hospital earlier.

The hospital, you know, Brady banned me from seeing Marlena. Can you believe that? I mean, I only, I was only trying to ask her if she would deprogram you, and I know she’ll say yes, and then we could be together again. What the hell is wrong with you? Excuse me. The woman is dying. And you want her to reprogram my brain so we can reconcile How could you be so heartless?

Yeah. That, that, that, that is what I was gonna ask you. But I, I’m, I’m not gonna push, you’ve asked for space, I’m gonna give you space. Just felt like in that one little moment there, I, uh, sounded like you cared. I do care, but thanks to Kristen, I thought that it was over between us. I know you did Chloe, but I was being blackmailed.

I told, I told you that. I mean, don’t you understand? The last thing in the world I wanted to do was break up with you.

I know that this has been really hard for you too, but. I spent a really long time being in the dark about this, and I was struggling to figure out how the man that claims that he loves me and that I love with all my heart would just abandoned me. And then Stephan came along and he gave, he gave me a chance to just let it all go and try to move on.

And I was starting to feel normal for just a little bit, and then Gabby dropped her bombshell. That’s Stephan was brainwashed. Yeah. So I don’t know. It’s just been, it’s been one thing after the other, and I’m just really confused right now. I don’t know what I’m supposed to think. I don’t know what I’m supposed to feel.

Sure. Okay.

I’m so glad you’re here. Thank you.

Where’s Tripp? Um, he, uh, he had to run out Steph too. They’ll be back in a bit. Stephanie said you left early. She thought you, uh, needed some time. Well, yeah. Well, I wasn’t alone. I went over to the Damaris, went to see Kristen. Jack, what’d you do? I almost killed her.

Your uncle just tried to murder me. Didn’t you see his hands around my You’re fine now. Throat. You’re fine now. What? So you okay with what he did? I’ll tell you what I’m not okay with. How about that? I’m not okay with Steve going to prison. You wanna know why? Because he is the only parent as kids have left.

Thanks to you. Also thanks to you. My grandpa Roman is shattered. My grandma Marlena is in the hospital clinging to life. So given all the damage you’ve done to my family, I really don’t give a damn if someone damages you. Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marlena or the other women. I swear to you.

Look, I will admit I hit the orchid knowing that these women would need more doses of the serum.

But I wasn’t gonna withhold it if they got sick. I swear to you, I never wanted those women dead. Yeah, maybe not. That’s what happened.

Sorry. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t, shouldn’t have done that. No, I don’t, don’t apologize. It wasn’t wrong, but it wasn’t right either. I, I don’t know. I’m not making any sense. None of this makes sense. I’m, I’m sorry, I just, I. I, I can’t Brady it just

ej it’s me. You don’t recognize this number because I’m on a burner fund. Stephan’s on the war path that. He thinks you’re going to fire me because of what I did to him, but we both know that’s not going to happen. Right? Unless, of course you want him to find out about your betrayal, how you kept quiet about his brainwashing so you could take over damara.

That’s what I thought. Why are you so angry, Whitney? Because Whitney did is disgust. Oh, I see. It’s the programming. That’s why you’re reacting this way. Or should I say overreacting? I am reacting this way because you impose on a critically ill woman for your own stupid and selfish reason. Stupid and selfish.

Newsflash. This brainwashing is a very serious life-changing issue that isn’t just gonna undo itself. Okay? You need help. Ro is Mia. We may never find him. That leaves marlina. She’s dying, which is why I wanted to move quickly. Oh my God. Damn it Stephan. Don’t you get it? She’s your only. I did this for you.

Do not lie to me and do not lie to yourself. As always, the only person you were thinking about is Gabby Hernandez. You did this for you.

If you said this is what you wanted for you to act like an entitled petulant child the hell I did, how, how do you think this is gonna happen? How do you think we’re gonna access your real feelings? Real feelings? You mean my feelings for you? Right. Because let’s be honest, that’s all you care about. I care about us, Seth, you were my husband.

The love that we shared was more beautiful, more powerful than anything I’ve ever known. God, I thought that we were gonna spend the rest of our lives together, and then our future was ripped apart because a bullet landed in your chest. But now we have a second chance. We have a miracle. We just have to get in touch with how you really feel.

Nothing, nothing should get in the way of making that happen. How could you be so damn selfish? Huh. And cruel. You know, I’m starting to believe that Lee did me a favor when he brainwashed me because he got me away from a bitch like you. Leave her the hell alone.

Hey, how is she famous? Um, there’s no change. Damn. Uh, is, uh, is Grandpa John? Okay. Yeah, I, I, I made him go home to get some sleep, but then, uh, he, he just came back a couple minutes ago. Have you gotten any rest, ? Uh, uh, there was a, uh, a bit of a situation at my place. Situation. What? What do you mean? When I walked in, my uncle Steve had his hands.

Around Kristen’s throat. I, I think he was trying to kill her. Huh? Can’t say I blame him. I sure don’t. Yeah. Kristen is wrong. So many people. I should get one of those number to Spencer, so people just take a number, line up outside the door and get a piece of her.

Harold, I guess it’s his day off. Perfect.

You almost killed Kristen. Don’t worry, son. It’s just an. What do you mean? Well, right before I put my hands around her throat, I made a whole lot of noise hoping that somebody would come in and break it up before things went too far. Well and behold, Johnny Damara walks in when he was taking care of Kristen.

I planted a bug and Johnny kicked me out. Then everything they said after that went to this device. You recorded them? I did. I had to release Kristen due to lack of evidence, but I’m gonna give Ray everything he needs to make sure that witch goes down for murder. Listen to this.

Look, I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t wanna hurt Marlena or the other women. I swear to.

Look, I will admit I hate the orchid knowing that these women would need more doses of the serum, but I wasn’t gonna withhold it if they got sick. I swear to you, I never wanted those women dead. Yeah, maybe not be done. That’s what happened.

He’s that confession. Damn straight is

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Honey. Hi Bonnie. Hi, Justin. We were just about to grab dinner. Um, we’d love for you to join us unless you have other plans. No, I, I don’t, um, I’d actually love to join you. Just I’m afraid I won’t be much company. I’m kind of wiped out. Yeah, I’m sure you’ve been working all out lately. Yeah. Just kinda nonstop trying to find that cure from Elena.

Any. No, unfortunately. And without that orchid we can’t do much. But we are gonna keep trying though. Well, we’re all praying for her. Yeah. So am I actually, Justin, um, I’m really glad I ran into you. There’s, um, something I would like to discuss. What’s that?

I wanna divorce Zander, and I was wondering if you could help me.

Zander, are you in there? I really need to talk to you.

Oh, I’m delighted to see you. Look. You sure you only see one of me? Oh, there’s no time for mass right now. Come in the middle of a major crisis. What we thought, what’s not? I just running ask SCO

son’s wet blanket. Husband is already doing his damnest to convince him that I’m a terrible person who can’t be trusted. Well, I mean, you’ve only made this job so much easier for him with the latest stunt you pulled, you don’t need to rub it in, but you’re. That little bitch Wilhelmina would eat this up if the truth came out.

And even worse, I would lose Sunny’s friendship for good.

So, uh, how’d things go with Stephanie?

It’s over, bro. I just lost the best thing that has ever happened to me,

Stephanie. Chad. Hey, are you busy? I mean, if this is not a good time. No, I’m just, just running some errands. Are you okay? Sounds like you’re crying. Yeah. Things aren’t too great over here. Do you think you could come by? Um, I’m at my parents’ place. I just, I could really use a friend. Yeah, I’m on my way,

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

After what Zandra did to Bonnie, I’d be more than happy to help you divorce him. In fact, I’ll do a pro bono, hell, I’ll even pay you for the privilege of putting that clown through the ringer. That won’t be necessary Justin, but I do appreciate the offer. Can I say something? Yeah, of course, Bonnie. I, I know it’s none of my business, but, um, I think divorce might not be the best idea.

If you’re worried about me taking the case, it’s not a problem for me. I mean, it’s not a, like I owe my cousin any family loyalty. Lord knows. He didn’t show me any loyalty when he kidnapped you. No, I piss not them.

I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I honestly think you should give Xander a second chance.

I have more boos to be delivered, but the liquor store must be walking here from Scotland. Hey, you don’t happen to have any libation on you, do you, mate? Sorry. I’m afraid not, mate. Damn. Life’s so unfair, isn’t it?

Oh my God.

Are you just absolutely sloshed? Wait, I’ve got no self-control, honey. I’m only on my third ball. Yes, so this will keep me going until my delivery arrives. Zander, what’s going on? You mean beside my entire life? Imploding and my family thinking that I’m discovered the earth and Sarah wanting to divorce me.

Hang on. Sarah wants to divorce you. Indeed, she does, and I’m probably going back to prison. No, you were not. Not if I have something to say about it.

So you’re on board with representing me, right? I’m gonna try my best, but this is not a slam dunk, you know? I mean, it’s gonna take some serious. Legal creativity to get you out of this. Xander is the one who kidnapped son’s stepmom. All I did was help him cover it up afterwards, but that’s still a crime.

Me. I know. I know what it means. It means if I don’t play my cards right, this could all still blow up in my adorable.

Bonnie, I can’t believe that you of all people think that I should work things out with Xander. I mean, he kidnapped you and Su I know I was there and believe you me, I was furious when I found out I was him. And now, now what? Now that I’ve had a chance to process everything. Now that I don’t see clowns everywhere that I look, I realize I’ve been a hypocrite.

Where X’s concerned, what are you talking about? How do you remember what I did to Adrian? It was every bit as terrible as what Sandra did, if not worse. And yet you found it. And your big, beautiful heart to forgive me and give me a second chance and look where we are now. We are happy and I’m thinking. If Sarah can find it in her heart to forgive Xander, maybe they could be happy again too.

Bonnie, there is a big difference between you and Xander. You didn’t cause Adrian’s death. If Xander hadn’t a kidnapped Susan, then she might not have died that horrible way. I mean, even if I can. Get over everything that he did to me. How can I get past that?

Rafe came by yesterday and he offered me a deal that would keep me out of prison entirely. That’s great. Brilliant. Yeah. Only if I throw you under the bus.

So what’d you tell him? He said, I need to speak to a lawyer. And so today Leo asked if Sloan Peterson would represent us. He thinks that he, if we both turn on you, we’d get off SCO free. Why? They like the Sky Hub. Good old Leon.

Zander. I came here today because I wanted to tell you I’m not gonna do it. I’m not gonna cooperate with the police. Come hell or high water are you? Tough. Take the damn deal.

Dammit. I never should have agreed to dress up as that stupid clown, especially enough for the pits that Gwen paid me little late for. Regrets Leo. I still can’t believe that you were able to fool Bonnie Lockhart into thinking that you were to clown the kidnapped her. I mean, there must have been one hell of a body suit, excuse me.

It was my performance that sold it. I tapped into my inner Joaquin Phoenix to bring the menace and the pathos to that role. But instead of an Oscar, I’m gonna earn a trip to the slammer. Where is the justice in this? No. Okay. Come stalking it, Joaquin. All right. You’re gonna give yourself a hearty pack,

Alex, I’m really sorry, but I mean, like I said, I, I think it was important for you to come. Well, the thing is, Sonny, I didn’t even get the chance to come clean because by the time I got there, Stephanie had already pretty much figured it out for herself that I am the reason why she didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to tomorrow.

Gotta cut yourself a break. Like I said, it wasn’t cool what you did, but you didn’t know why Chad was calling. It doesn’t matter. Stephanie hates me. Okay? Cuz she just suffered a major loss. But give her time. I mean, once she’s had a chance to process, solve it and, and once she. S some time to process all of it.

Son, she’s still gonna hate me. She’s still gonna blame me for depriving her of her last moments with her dying mother, and why wouldn’t she? That is exactly what I did.

She told me she never wants to see me again, and I think she meant it with every fiber of her being.

Sorry for making you come back over here. I needed to talk to someone. You were the first person who came to mind. Of course. What’s going on? Is it about your mom? Yeah, it is. It’s about my not getting to see her before she died. It’s about Alex, what he did.

He turned off your phone so you couldn’t get my calls. How did you know? Sonny told me only because he, he knew that Alex was gonna come over here and confess. Yeah. Well, no confession was necessary. I was able to piece things together before he got here. So what happened when you confronted him? He tried to apologize, but Chad, what he did was unforgivable.

Alex, I missed my last chance to see my mom before she died, so Alex and I were done for good.

Look, Steph, you have every reason to be mad as hell at Alex. But in his defense, he didn’t know why I was calling. He just wanted to be alone with you, . I don’t give a damn what he wanted. He had no right to turn off my phone. It was a total violation. I I get it.

I get it That he was already annoyed that I, that, that you and I had spent the day together and then, you know, I intruded on your romantic evening together. On Christmas Eve, so you know, it makes sense that he wouldn’t want me interrupting you guys again, God, but you wouldn’t have been interrupting if you had called about anything.

But my mom, I would’ve told you I was busy, but Alex didn’t trust me to do that, so he took that choice away from me. And so I missed my last chance to say goodbye to my mom before she died. Would’ve meant everything to me, Chad, and to her. And now cause of Alex. It’s too late. It’s too late. I’m sorry, Steph.

Just telling her what? How can I help?

It’s gotta be least 10 below out there kinda dreading going home,

so don’t

stay the night. I mean, if you want to, of course there’s no pressure.

Actually, I.

I can’t stay here.

Sorry. You’re not really being fair here. I mean, Susan’s death was not Sandra’s fault. In the end, he let her go just like he did me. And believe me, I am not condoning what. But I can’t understand the position he was in because I’ve been there too. Stuck doing something you don’t wanna do, but unable to see a way out.

Maybe it’s like a delayed Stockholm syndrome or I know what that is. I saw a documentary and believe me, this is not that, honey. You know what I’m talking about, right? About forgiveness. My wife has one of the biggest hearts of anyone I know. And while I personally believe that she may be a little too charitable in this case, she may have a point.

Honey, we’re just trying to help you because we knew how much you love Z and how great you guys are together. And what Bonnie’s trying to say is that this whole thing was. Only recently blew up, so maybe you should just take a little more time before you really make the decision to end your marriage.

Forget it, zander, that there’s, there’s no way that I’m going to sell you out to the cops. Nothing you can say is gonna change my mind.

And what do you want in return? Not a thing.

Are you sure? Cause you’ve told me more than once that I owe you one since I’m probably going back to prison. If there is something that you want from me, now’s the time to collect.

So let’s get down to business. How soon can you get me a deal to testify against Xander? Anonymously of. You do realize whenever you say anonymously, it means that nobody would know my identity. Yes, I know what the word anonymous means. It’s just not that simple, I’m afraid. You see, Zander has the legal right to know who his accuser is.

I mean, even though you can be anonymous to the public, I mean, Xander has to know who’s testifying against him. Excuse me. Who came up with that idiotic rule? It’s the sixth Amendment. Besides, his lawyers are gonna want the chance to cross-examine. I mean, they’re gonna wanna debunk your testimony. What if I were a veil, a really thick one so nobody could see my features and I could change my voice?

You really think that’s gonna work? I think Xander’s gonna know exactly who you are. Okay. So even if Xander has to know, is there any way to prevent him from telling anybody else, like isn’t there some sort of court rule about witness confidentiality? There is nothing that can stop Xander from telling anyone who will listen that you are the one that turned on him.

So then Sonny would still know what I did. But at least you won’t be in present. Not good enough. Ali McBeal. I do not. I repeat. I do not want Sunny finding out the truth.

Well, hey. Hi. Hey. Oh, I’m so glad to see you. I saw your bags at the house and I figured you must have come here. Have you been able to see your grandma Marlene again? No, not yet. They’re only letting in two people at a time, but hopefully I’ll be able to get in soon. I’m so sorry again about Okay, thanks.

Have you been able to spend any time with the rest of your family? Um, yeah, they’re in the chapel praying. I just came from dropping off Julie’s. Okay. Well, do you wanna go back and join them? Actually, uh, I’m, I’m glad we have a moment alone because son, there’s something I need to tell you about Leo.

So you’re siding against me too, huh? Justin? Look, I think Zand. He is a very troubled man who has only a nodding acquaintance with the truth most of the time anyway. But I also know that he has on occasion made you very happy. So why don’t you just let the dust settle a bit? There’s no need to file for divorce right away.

Maybe you guys could try a little doubles. My sessions with Marlene have done wonders for my PTs. D I can finally go back to McDonald’s without freaking out

I dunno. I mean, Xander has lied to me and betrayed me so many times over the years. How can I believe that he will never do it again? And even if I can find a way to trust him, isn’t it all a moot point if he ends up in prison? You’re right. I do want something from you. I’m my son.

I want you. To stop being so bloody defeatist and pull yourself together, cook for goodness sake, what’s the point? Sarah’s divorcing me. I’m heading back to this. Oh, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Stop your bloody whining. Like everything’s so hopeless. I’m not gonna let you just roll over and give up. You’re gonna fight for your marriage, and you’re gonna fight for your freedom.

How? Well, first of all, we’re gonna sober you up, right? And then we’re gonna come up with a game plan. That’s enough. Come on then. You love. Well we got, well you stink now with booze and defeat, so just go in there. We’re gonna shower both. Come off. Come on. I still think you should go for the plea deal. If you help trash land this big fish, you, my little gpi will be off the hook.

I’d rather keep my mouth shut and take my chances. At least this way. Son won’t know what I did. Are you kidding me? You would rather risk. Then have your friend know you did something shady, . I mean, you really have a bad for him. . What? That is ridiculous. He’s not even my type. Okay. Enough with the side eye.

It’s like your eyes are bearing a hole into my psyche. Okay, fine. He’s He’s handsome. He’s funny, he’s kind. He’s completely wonderful. He’s totally my type. Oh my God. I’m completely crushing on him again. Leo knew that Xander was the one who kidnapped Susan and Bonnie. Mm-hmm. . Andy helped cover it up. Yeah.

He put on a body suit and pretended to be the kidnapper to get Xander off the hook. No, but Sarah was so sure that Gwen was the one guy in all of it because she paid Leo to do it. I can’t believe this. You’re sure you didn’t misunderstand all? I’m sure he laid out the whole plan for his attorney. He’s hoping to cut some kind of plea deal and he’s desperate to keep you from finding out.

Thank God that’s sneaky son, a bitch.

I’ve been denying it to myself. But Sunny does make me go weaken the knees. It’s the white tank tops. Not to mention the adorable face, the width, the charm, the kindness. Great head of hair. Well, I think it’s obvious that you have great appreciation for this guy’s, many attributes, but unless I’m missing something, I mean, isn’t he married?

Yes, but they’ve hit a rough patch all on their own, by the way. Nothing to do with me and they live in separate cities. Wouldn’t take much for that marriage to. And you think that if that happens, that Sonny’s just gonna turn to you? I can hope, can’t I? Uh, we were married once before. Our chemistry is still off the charts.

But even if that rosy little fantasy is not to be, I still wanna be his friend. I wanna keep Sonny in my life any way I can.

I, is it okay if I leave you here for a little? Yeah, of course. I’ll, I’ll be fine. Okay, son. Um, tell Leo that Wilhelmina says hello. Also good ridin. Go to hell and screw you. I’ll pass it along.

What’s with the Solo Act? Keri Aus. Where’s your little girlfriend who don’t play Coy? I heard you and Stephanie Johnson were practically attached at the hip. In all truth, I was a little offended that you never sent me a thank you. And why? Sharon, thank you. Only I or am I not? The reason that the two of you ended up together, I figure Ms.

Johnson was so grateful that you sold that file for me. She just decided she had to give you the time of day. Hmm. You know what? You’re not that far off. I figured as much, but in spite of that, You’re unintentionally getting Ms. Johnson, and give me the time of day as you put it. That’s over now. And that to state the obvious is because I am a total jerk, egotistical, selfish, dishonest, misogynistic, arrogant.

To put it nice and short, I screwed.

My world famous spaghetti and meat, the molds. Wow. Is this an old Dara family recipe? Um, no actually. Uh, taught me how to make this one.

Chad, I’m, I didn’t get a chance to say this before, but I’m, I’m so sorry for your loss. I know Kate was like a mother to you. Yeah, she was. Um, I think she actually probably understood me more than my own parents did. I mean, she was, She was hard as hell on me, but, uh, but she . She uh, she always looked at my spirit

well, I’d like to propose a toast to Kate. Gone but not forgotten.

Then feeling better. Oh, I mean, yeah, I feel a bit, a little bit more alert, but now I’m soaking wet and miserable, so thanks very much. All right. Well, good thing is, is you can change out of wet clothes. We’ve put on some dry ones, I think. Yeah, you should probably get changed too. Okay. Sarah left this behind.

Yes, as I said, that’s um, not really to my taste. Why about this? Is this more to your taste? Oh, yes, that is. Thank you. Much better.

Maybe they’ll end a hat. What does Sloane know about my skills at disguise?

Hey, I didn’t know you were home. Just got back. Well, fyi, your hub’s in town. He stopped by earlier. Oh, I know. I just ran into him at the hospital. Oh, well good. Since you’re here, you wanna have some dinner? I was about to have cook whip something up. There’s no need. Not gonna be here for long. Neither are you.

You, you need a pack of things in gal Do What? What’s going on? Oh wait. It was Wilhelmina, wasn’t it? She was going on and on again about what a menace I am. What a pathetic loser. And told you to throw me out. She doesn’t want me anywhere near you.

No, I don’t want you anywhere near me. Why Jackson? What’s going on? I know what you did. I know you were involved in Bonnie’s kidnapping.

Thank you. For dinner and for the company. It was just what I. . Good.

You know what we need now? Dessert. I know a place. I’m gonna go get somewhere. No, no. You will go nowhere. I’m sure we have something sweet hiding in here.

Oh my God. What is it? It’s one of my mom’s apple pies. She left a note on it

for Steph, made this for you since you missed out on Christmas. Love.

I knew it’s monogamy equals monotony as you used to always say. So tell me how long was it before you got bored and strayed? That is not what happened. Stephanie’s mom died. So she founded you because her mom died? No, she dumped me because she didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to her. Which was entirely my fault.

How so?

I was get just getting sick and tired of Chad Damara hanging around. And the night that Stephanie’s mom died, Stephanie and I were together. She went into the bathroom, the phone kept bringing, it was Chad again. So I took the phone and I turned it off. The thing is, Chad was calling to tell her that her mom was dying.

Oh wow. You really, I did screw up. Thank you for confirming that.

Do you think there’s any chance that I could fix this? No, not a chance. When my mom died, I, I would’ve given anything to have had one last chance to say goodbye to her. And if some guy got in the way of me doing that, I mean, I’d hate him for the rest of my life.

Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Son, you’ve got this all wrong. Knock it off. Leo will overheard you talking to Sloan and he told me everything. Oh, that nosy little twerp. Was he stalking you? How could you, how could you do this to me? How could you hurt my family like this after everything I’ve done for you? I mean, I, I, I helped you look for a job.

I, I I put a roof over your head. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I, I needed the money. I, at the time, it seemed like a harmless prank. A harmless prank. Bonnie was scared to death. She’d already been kidnapped once. And then, then you Alexander her, kidnapped her again? No, no, no. Technically I had nothing to do with the kidnapping.

Technically, you know what? Technically you’re guilty as hell. You stayed in this house, you knew what Sandra did, and you said nothing. You saw how traumatized body was. You saw how concerned my dad was, and still you lived under this roof and you said nothing. Okay? Okay. I screwed up. I’m sorry. I know that I messed up.

I deeply regret it. And Sonny, please, please, if you could just be that incredibly understanding and kind person that you are and gimme another chance, please. You are the only true friend I have ever had. The only person who has ever believed in me, who has seen the good. I promise. I promise you I will do better.

I will. I will make amends. I will grovel to everyone I have hurt, especially you. Please, sunny, if you could just find it in that. Enormous heart of yours to, to, to forgive me. No. Please. No, I’m not making that mistake again. Leo, I vouched for you. I got in a huge fight with my husband because I insisted that you would change that.

You were like this better person, . I I am. I’m becoming a better person. I’m doing that for you. No. Oh my God. No. Will was right. You’re still just a despicable, selfish con artist, and that’s what you’ll always be, son. No, don’t say that.

Do you wanna know what the craziest part is?

I actually started to think that you wanna have a friend.

We were we. We are. No, we’re not friends. Leah, you are not my friend. You are nothing to me.

Now get out of this house before I have you thrown up.

I’d feel so badly for Sarah. I mean, she may be all fussed and fury when it comes to Xander, but I could tell underneath she still loves him. So, oh, Justin, there may still be hope for them, yet you are incredible. You know that No, of course I am . Not seriously. What have I done? Xander terrorized you. Okay? He made you so afraid that you didn’t wanna leave the house.

Now here you are sticking up for him, rooting for him to save his marriage. I’ve been where he’s been and I tell you, I feel for the guy. Hi. Tonight, Bonnie, my Love. You have once again proven to me that you are one of the best people I know and I’m so lucky to have you. Oh my God. Back at you babe. Back at you.

Sorry. Sorry, I thought you’d be done dressing by now. God, these Travis holes keep moving about. Oh, finally, it’s a liquor store. No. Oh. If no, you’ve had too much to drink, I’m just gonna tell him to get lost.

What the hell is this?

This pie is amazing. I know, right? I know. When your mom made it is just, it makes it that much more. I’m very grateful that I get to. Share this with you.

I’m just glad I found it. She would’ve been very disappointed if it had gone a waste.

And Chad, thank you for coming over. I don’t know if I could have gotten through this night without you. Anytime.

You really taking this hard, aren’t you? No. So what? The only woman I ever had feelings for, never wants to see me again. No big deal. Stupid question. Yeah, very stupid question. How does somebody not take it hard when you feel like your life is over? When, when, when you don’t know how you’re gonna get through the rest of the day?

Alex, honey, you made the fatal mistake of getting emotionally involved. See, this is why no strings attached is always the way to go. But for what it’s worth, I’m sorry. Nothing is worse than a broken heart or so they say.

As soon as Leo’s gone, I’ll meet you back at the hospital. Okay. Take your time. Getting him out of our lives is the top priority. Yeah, you were right about him. I sh I should have listened to you. No, I’m just sorry that he hurts you again.

I have to go. Okay. I, I love you. I love you too.

Are you gonna tell the police about what I did?

I don’t know. I haven’t decided.

Son, before I go, there’s one thing I want you to know.

I really did care about you. Your friendship meant means everything to me. Come on. You were just playing me the entire time. I wasn’t. The bond we had, it was real. It was sweet and special and great and I am certain that deep down, you know that’s true.

I am so very sorry, Jackson,

for everything.

And you coming here was a huge mistake. Sarah, this is not what you think. She’s right. Sarah, you gotta, you gotta let me

disgust me, Sarah, wait.
