Johnny checked on Chanel to see if she was okay after the adoption fell through. She wasn’t feeling okay at all. Chanel wanted to get out of town for a little while. She wanted to drive to Chicago for the night. He thought that sounded great, but he wanted to see Roman. Johnny went to see Roman. He told him about the adoption falling through. Roman apologized for that and for telling him about the way he was conceived. Johnny let him know that he hated everything about it and now he hates his father. Roman told him that he would always be angry about it, but he may understand why his mother made the choices she made. He admitted to Johnny that there are times that he wants to pick up his gun and shoot EJ. Johnny was surprised that Roman had his gun behind the bar. Roman wanted to hide it from the kids. He apologized again for letting it slip that EJ raped Sami. Roman asked Johnny if he talked to Sami. He said that Sami has been avoiding him. Johnny let him know that it was a struggle to avoid killing EJ when he showed up looking for forgiveness. While Roman and Johnny were talking, Ava rushed out of the pub. Chanel showed up at the DiMera mansion to confront EJ about ruining the adoption. He wanted to get it over with. Chanel wanted to know why he ruined lives. She reminded him that he knew they were trying to adopt a child. All he had to do was stay out of trouble until after the adoption was finalized. She called him a dangerous man and that Amy had a right to worry about him being near her grandchild. EJ thought it was a good thing that Johnny cut him out of his life. She thought Johnny would have forgiven him if he didn’t work with the man who hurt his mother again. Chanel felt like he didn’t show remorse for what he did. She was about to leave when he asked her to tell Johnny that he loved him. Chanel agreed to do it. Belle arrived at the townhouse and took off the wire. Brady told her about what was going on with John. She wasn’t in the right headspace to be hopeful about the situation. He noticed she had a wire and wanted to know what was going on. Belle didn’t get a confession from EJ. Brady was impressed by what she tried to do to EJ. She filled him in on what happened with EJ. Belle told him that EJ said she would never get him out of her system. She was afraid he was right. Brady understood because he felt addicted to Kristen. He told her that he got over it and moved on. Belle could do it too. She realized that he moved on with Ava, but he told her that they broke up.

JJ told Shawn that Belle didn’t get EJ’s confession. He noticed that Shawn seemed preoccupied. Shawn told him that Jada was going to tell Rafe the truth.

She told him that it wasn’t the same thing. Rafe didn’t like that she didn’t tell him about it right away and didn’t realize that something was wrong. Gabi tried to defend Jada, but it didn’t work. She told him that she didn’t recognize something was off either. The only person to blame was EJ. EJ ruined their lives, and Gabi wanted to kill him for it. Rafe warned her not to say that because she was risking her freedom. They wouldn’t do that to EJ, but Gabi wasn’t so sure about that. Jada went to Paulina’s place to talk. She admitted that she slept with Shawn. Paulina said they slept together after she was fired and reinstated so there wasn’t an issue. She would take care of it if it got out. Paulina knew something else was wrong. Jada told her about Rafe’s reaction. Paulina couldn’t believe he reacted that way. Jada felt like she should have known something was off because she was a detective and loved Rafe. Paulina told her that EJ was the person responsible for everything. Jada didn’t want to shift the blame, but Paulina believed every bad thing that happened was because of EJ. She believed that EJ was going to pay for everything he did.

She felt they would do the world a favor by ridding the world of EJ. Jada agreed with her. JJ went to Rafe’s place but no one was home. Shawn texted Jada to see if she was okay. She told him that she wasn’t okay. Jada grabbed for her gun. Chanel went home and saw Paulina asleep on the couch. She wanted to know if Johnny was home, but he wasn’t.
