I know. I know. I miss you too, sweetheart. But just think about it this way. It won&#8217;t be that much longer till you see me.<\/p>\n<p>[Twig snaps]<\/p>\n<p>[Soft dramatic music]<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: This is wonderful.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Well, the pub always has the best food.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: It&#8217;s true. That&#8217;s not what I meant. Yesterday. Yesterday, brady, I would have been absolutely convinced that, well, craig was lying to me about that being a work call. But today, today I&#8217;m perfectly calm because I know that my&#8211;my husband, my loving, wonderful husband, has gone out of his way to show me how much he loves me. And even though I came to salem for being terribly upset, then needing my daughter to talk me off the ledge, I&#8217;m really happy to be here, to be here with both of you.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: It was wonderful to spend time with you and craig.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Even though we sort of surprised you and disrupted your entire lives.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: No, you didn&#8217;T. No disruption at all.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: You know, as happy as I am, there&#8217;s only one thing that would make me happier.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: What would that be?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Getting you and chloe back together again.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: That&#8217;s what you get for cheating on me with that cheap slut.<\/p>\n<p>[Knock at door]<\/p>\n<p>[Suspenseful music]<\/p>\n<p>Nicole, hey. What a coincidence.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Coincidence? Why?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: I was just thinking about you.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Peace offering. Listen, I&#8217;m really sorry about this.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Oh, man, come on. You got nothing to be sorry for, shawn. You know, a third con came forward and said that I had falsified evidence. You&#8211;you had no choice but to make the arrest, and you got trask breathing down your damn back.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah, well, a few ticked-off thugs claiming to be railroaded isn&#8217;t exactly an ironclad case.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Yeah. The thing is, I&#8217;m not out there in the street making collars. I&#8217;m usually here, I&#8217;m behind the desk. So for these guys to come out of the woodwork saying what they said. It doesn&#8217;t look good.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah. Well, it&#8217;s obvious you&#8217;re being framed. I mean, I&#8211;I spent hours trying to&#8211;to find a connection between these losers, but I know I&#8217;ve got nothing. Except maybe&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: What?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: The last time we spoke, you said that you think that ava might be behind this. You still think that she&#8217;s the one that set you up?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: There&#8217;s no way.<\/p>\n<p>[Knocking at door]<\/p>\n<p>[Melancholy music]<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Hey!<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Dad. Hi. Come in.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Thank you. Thank you. You know, I was in the neighborhood and I thought I would stop by and say hello. And I brought a little something for jules and carver.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Just passing by, huh? Well, the kids are asleep, but will you settle for me?<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Absolutely. Where&#8217;s&#8211;where&#8217;s eli?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: He&#8217;s in D.C., Visiting his mom, so it&#8217;s just me and the twins, and I am dying for some adult company.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Oh. It&#8217;s perfect. That works out for both of us.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: You know, you don&#8217;t have to have an excuse to visit the twins.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: I do know that, but I was in the neighborhood. And since seeing you always lifts my spirits&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Bad day already?<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Yeah, I had a&#8211;had a run-in with paulina.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Ray? Oh, my god.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Hello, paulina.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Stay the hell away from me. Stay the hell away from me. I&#8217;ll&#8211;I&#8217;ll lay you out flat right here and now.<\/p>\n<p>Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the &#8220;days of our lives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>[Soft orchestration]<\/p>\n<p>Lani: So&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Ah, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: What did paulina do this time?<\/p>\n<p>Abe: You know, maybe &#8220;run-in&#8221; is too strong a word. We&#8211;we were civil. Friendly, even. There&#8217;s always going to be tension between us.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: I&#8217;m so sorry.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: At least things are better between you and paulina, aren&#8217;t they? I mean, you saved her life. Those are her words.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: She is so dramatic. But, yes. I mean, I will probably always have my guard up with paulina, but we are on better terms. And I do hope that happens for you, too, someday.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: I-I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s possible. Not when she wants me to&#8230; do something I can&#8217;t do for her.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: What do you mean?<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Well, I-I don&#8217;t&#8211; I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d ever be able to trust her again, especially after letting me think that I was your real father. And she always knew otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: You got some fight in you now, I see.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: I always did. Just got beaten out of me by you.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: You put your fist down now, paulina. I am not going to hurt you.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Too late for that. What are you doing here, ray? What do you want from me?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I go by tr now.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Yeah? Well, you can slap on an alias to run from all the skeletons in your closet, terrell raymond, but you&#8217;ll always be rotten ray to me.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Some things never change. Like that mouth on you.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: I asked you a question. What do you want?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I don&#8217;t want anything.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Well, then why did you track me down after all these years?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I didn&#8217;t &#8220;track you down.&#8221; I didn&#8217;t even know you were in this godforsaken little backwater.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: So, what the hell are you doing here in salem, usa, of all places?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I&#8217;ll be back later today. I&#8217;ll talk to you soon. What are you doing here, chloe?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: I brought your coat. Mom thought you&#8217;d be cold. But you sounded like you were pretty hot to me. For rob, it took years to find out<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Chloe and I already told you, we&#8217;re just friends.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Mm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Brady, ever since the two of you were singing duets in the park way back when, I&#8217;ve known that you are the only man for my daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Well, she didn&#8217;t know that, obviously.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: And it&#8217;s not obvious to me. And in my opinion, the only reason that she went back to philip this time was because you were entangled with kristen dimera.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Nancy, she and philip were together when he disappeared. And we don&#8217;t know if he&#8217;s&#8211;he&#8217;s alive or dead, so there is no way that I can pursue something with chloe right now.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: But you do have feelings for her?<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Yes, I do.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: So brady, then you&#8217;re&#8211;you&#8217;re basically in limbo.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: That&#8217;s a good way of putting it.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: But what&#8211;but what if we never find out what happened to philip? Are you okay wallowing in limbo forever?<\/p>\n<p>Brady: That might be the way it has to be, nancy, yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: No, no, it&#8217;s not. Not the way I see it.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I don&#8217;t know what you&#8217;re talking about, chloe.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Come on, dad. I just heard you. &#8220;Baby, I miss you&#8221;? I hope you don&#8217;t talk that way to your co-workers, or someone&#8217;s going to slap you with a sexual harassment suit.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Okay. It&#8217;s not what you think&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: It&#8217;s exactly what I think. And mom&#8217;s &#8220;ridiculous meltdown&#8221; when she first came to salem makes total sense. You lied to her, and you lied to me. You are cheating on her, aren&#8217;t you?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Yeah. Yeah, I am.<\/p>\n<p>[Melancholy music]<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Like I said, I&#8217;ve got no proof that ava&#8217;s behind this. It&#8217;s just my gut. And what happened with duke?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: The teddy bear that got the&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Yeah. That&#8217;s right. First, that happens. And then right after that, these guys come forward, and here I am.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah. Well, it wouldn&#8217;t be difficult for ava to orchestrate a frame-up, you know, given her mob ties.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Well, exactly. Yeah. I&#8217;m right there with you. Well, she was just so damn proud of leaving her old life behind.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: And what about the dead mobster you found on your kitchen floor not that long ago? I mean, that shows that her life isn&#8217;t that far behind her, but I still don&#8217;t get motive. Or you mentioned that ava&#8217;s got an issue with yours and nicole&#8217;s friendship, but you also mentioned that you and ava have been solid for months.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Yeah. That&#8217;s not exactly true.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Nicole, please, come&#8211;come on in.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Thanks. So you were thinking about me, huh? Why?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Well, the eggplant parm. You know, I should&#8217;ve sent you home with some last night, but I was just too upset to even think straight after rafe was arrested.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Well, it is safe to say that neither one of us had an appetite after that.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: My stomach&#8217;s just&#8211; it&#8217;s full of knots. Anyway, I&#8217;m&#8211;I&#8217;m surprised to see you back here so soon. What&#8217;s up?<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Don&#8217;t you think you&#8217;re being a little paranoid here thinking that ava is setting you up? I came to check on you. How are you doing?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: You know, you really are the sweetest. You&#8211;you&#8211;you are&#8211;you are&#8211;you are the best friend. Well, you know, I mean, I couldn&#8217;t really sleep a wink last night, right? I just&#8211;I kept thinking about what&#8217;s going to happen if rafe is convicted and he ends up in prison. It was enough to keep me up all night.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Well, I have complete faith that that&#8217;s not going to happen because rafe is innocent. And you know that better than anyone, don&#8217;t you?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Please. When you say things like that&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Like what?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: That paulina let you think that you were my &#8220;real father.&#8221; You are my &#8220;real father&#8221; in every way that matters.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: I should&#8217;ve chosen my words more carefully. What I meant was that you have a biological father out there. And ever since you found out, I&#8217;ve barely heard you mention him. Look, lani, I understand, and believe me, I appreciate that you think that I would be threatened by you seeking out information on him, but you are connected biologically. And I would think that you would be somewhat curious about him.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I have business here in salem.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: What kind of business would that be? Waste management?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Actually, I&#8217;m a movie producer now.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Movie producer? I can only imagine what kind of movies you make.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: It&#8217;s all totally legit.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: You don&#8217;t even know the meaning of that word.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: But apparently, I have a talent knowing what the public likes. And one of the filmmakers I&#8217;m working with just happens to live right here in town. He&#8217;s a young man from a fine, upstanding family. Perhaps you&#8217;ve heard of him. Johnny dimera?<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Johnny&#8211; johnny dimera? That&#8217;s the son of a bitch that broke my daughter&#8217;s heart.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: You have a daughter? Life&#8217;s been hard enough.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I had no idea you had children, paulina.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Well, my family is&#8211;is none of your damn business. My daughter has nothing to do with you.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I didn&#8217;t say she did.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: For the record, I had&#8211;I had chanel years after we split, with my husband george.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Is she your one and only?<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Yes, she is.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Well, she is a very lucky young woman to have a woman such as yourself for her mama. And george is a very lucky man.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: So you and nicole slept together. But ava doesn&#8217;t know about this, right?<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Well, I don&#8217;t think so. And ava, she&#8217;s&#8211;she&#8217;s been so sweet and loving and extra thoughtful, really, and not just to me. To nicole too. She&#8217;s always inviting her over to dinner and to just hang out. But I have seen this act before.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: I don&#8217;t follow.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: A few months back, gabi and ava were at each other&#8217;s throats, and I mean bad, right? And then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, ava is super sweet. I tell you, it turns out that that was one hell of an act, because while she was smiling to gabi&#8217;s face, she was stabbing her in the back. She was trying to screw her out of gabi chic.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Okay, so you&#8211; so you think that maybe ava does know about you and nicole.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: And that destroying my career is her revenge.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: What is that supposed to mean? That I would &#8220;know better than anyone&#8221; that rafe is innocent?<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Well, because you&#8217;re the closest person to him. You know what a great guy he is, how honest he is, how seriously he takes his work.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Yeah. Rafe is nothing if not honest.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: So then you know he&#8217;s being set up.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: I very much want to believe that.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Why wouldn&#8217;t you?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Well, for one thing, the police would not arrest one of their own&#8211;the commissioner, nonetheless&#8211; without a mountain of evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: But it&#8217;s fake, ava. And I&#8217;m sure that&#8217;s something else you know.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: What I know is that when I needed rafe to believe in my innocence, he didn&#8217;T. So why would i automatically believe in his?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Brady, I&#8217;ve seen the way chloe looks at you. She loves you too. Now all I have to do is convince her to admit that to herself.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Nancy, it&#8217;s sweet of you to want to try to help, but I-I think chloe and i should handle this on our own.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Brady black, do you want to be with my daughter or not?<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: You stood in my office and you swore to mom that she&#8217;s the only woman for you.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: She is, chloe.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: How can you possibly say that when you just admitted to having an affair? Who is she? Do I&#8211;do I know her? Does mom know her?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: There is no other woman.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Damn it, dad, just tell me the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I am.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: You&#8217;re not making any sense. You just admitted to cheating on mom, but you deny there&#8217;s another woman&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Because it&#8217;s a man, chloe. I&#8217;m cheating on your mom with a man.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Look, nancy, it&#8217;s not that simple.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Of course it is. You love chloe; she loves you. Now, you just have to man up and put it out there.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: You know, sometimes &#8220;manning up&#8221; means taking a little step back.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: You know, that kind of thinking is going to get us absolutely nowhere. Now, are you going to let me help you make this happen or not?<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Well, it&#8217;s going to be a little hard considering you and craig have to leave today.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Nope.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Nope?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Nope. I&#8217;m going to stay right here until I make sure that you and chloe are on the road to happily ever after, just like craig and me.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: A man? You&#8217;re&#8211;you&#8217;re sleeping with a man? But you&#8211;you and mom have been married for so long. I just&#8211;I don&#8217;t&#8211;I don&#8217;t understand.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I don&#8217;t either, chloe. Oh honey, come here. I&#8217;m sorry. I-I didn&#8217;t want you to find out this way.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Well, anyway. You don&#8217;t want me to find out any way, obviously. I mean, my&#8211;my god, dad. I knew that you and mom had problems, but all couples do from time to time, right? I guess I always just thought that maybe mom was just a little bit crazier about you than you were about her. And I just sort of assumed it&#8217;s because she&#8217;s a more demonstrative person than you are, but&#8230; dad, are you&#8211;are you trying to tell me that you&#8217;re gay?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: I know everything that I need to know about paulina&#8217;s ex. Apparently, he was abusive, controlling, cruel. So yeah, I did wonder about who my father was when I was growing up. But now that I know the truth, I have zero interest in meeting him.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Well, you might have other relatives out there you&#8217;d like to know.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Zero interest in meeting them, if they even exist. Look, I&#8217;m convinced that biology is overrated. You are the father that I have always dreamed of when I was a little girl. So why would I want to have anyone else as a dad when I have you?<\/p>\n<p>[Warm music]<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Don&#8217;t you try to sweet talk me. That might have worked when I was an innocent young girl&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Paulina, you were never an innocent girl. But I didn&#8217;t mean to be inappropriate. I know you&#8217;re taken.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: A woman is never &#8220;taken,&#8221; ray. You know what? That is not a concept I expect you to understand.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Again, I didn&#8217;t mean to offend. Is he with you? Your husband?<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: My george is dead, god rest his soul.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Oh, I didn&#8217;t realize. My condolences, paulina.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: I&#8217;d rather be in a grave right beside him than anywhere near you.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Look, I don&#8217;t blame you for feeling that way. The way I treated you, it&#8211;it was unforgivable. And I&#8217;m truly sorry.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: You&#8217;re what?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: You heard me. But I don&#8217;t expect you to forgive me. And I know this might just sound like words to you, but I&#8217;m not that man anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: So you&#8217;re trying to tell me you&#8217;ve changed? You got the lord, and you got sober?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Both.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Well, it&#8217;s going to take more than a miracle for that. A man like you doesn&#8217;t change, ray coates. And never will.<\/p>\n<p>Find your rhythm.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Look, nancy. I appreciate your enthusiasm. I really do, but I mean, you have to get back to new york, right?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: For what? Parker&#8217;s in boarding school, joy&#8217;s in grad school&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Brady: What about craig&#8217;s job?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Well, he&#8217;s been in so many medical conventions. He&#8217;s got about a bazillion days of vacation. So, oh, it would be so fun to be able to stay here and visit with my girl. I mean, we could&#8211;we could do things like we used to. Get our nails done. Go shopping. It would be so much fun. Oh, please, brady. Come on. I can&#8217;t wait to see her face when I tell her.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Me neither.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Oh. Though it&#8217;s taken an awful long time for her to get craig his jacket. I wonder what could be keeping them.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Chloe, I&#8211;I love your mother very much, very much. I had two beautiful children with her.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: I&#8211;I&#8217;m aware of that. You didn&#8217;t respond to my question.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: If I&#8217;m attracted to men. Well, yes, it seems that I am. If that makes me gay, then I&#8217;m gay.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Okay. Well, have you had these feelings forever, and just never acted on them, or what?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I don&#8217;t know. I just&#8211;I met this guy. We had great chemistry together. Both of us.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Okay. I don&#8217;t want to hear.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Chloe, you have to believe me. I never&#8211;I never meant to hurt your mom.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Well&#8211;well&#8230; well, then, you need to call this guy back, whoever he is, and tell him that you&#8217;re not rushing back to see him. You have to end this, dad.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I can&#8217;T.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Why not?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Because I&#8217;m in love with him.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Truth is, I fell into this relationship with ava, and then I convinced myself that it was real. But the whole damn time, I&#8217;ve been thinking about nicole.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: All right. So why didn&#8217;t you break it off with ava a long time ago?<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: You know, nicole, she&#8211;she didn&#8217;t want a rebound relationship after what happened with eric. And then she started dating ej. I was living with ava, you know. I was living with her. She was&#8211;she was making me home-cooked meals, and she was being so sweet, and I didn&#8217;t want to hurt her. Then I&#8211;I just kept telling myself what we had was real.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: I understand. So now that nicole and ej are over&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: I realized that I want to be with nicole, that I&#8217;ve always wanted to be with nicole, and&#8230; I told nicole that I was going to tell ava, that I was going to break things off with her, but I didn&#8217;t get the chance because that&#8217;s when you showed up and arrested me.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Well, I&#8217;m sorry for my characteristically lousy timing.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: It&#8217;s not your fault.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: So what are you going to do now?<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: What do you mean innocence? What did you do?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Well, I was innocent. Which means I didn&#8217;t do anything, boy, but did rafe think that I was guilty as hell.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: What are you talking about?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: Your precious plushie. Rafe was convicted that I went into your office and chopped its head off. Can you believe that? I mean, what possible reason would I have to go and do something like that to my best friend? Or the man that I love. Who wouldn&#8217;t hurt me any more than I would hurt them.<\/p>\n<p>[Eerie music]<\/p>\n<p>Trelegy for copd.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: There&#8217;s not much I can do while I&#8217;m in here.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Right. Well, give me orders. I mean, you&#8217;re still my boss. What&#8217;d you need?<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: [Laughs] Yeah, right. Not for long. No, I can&#8217;t imagine abe&#8217;s gonna leave me in this position, at least until I clear my name.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: And I&#8217;m going to do my best to make sure that that happens. So do you want me to&#8211;you want me to dive deep into&#8211;into ava&#8217;s priors and, you know, figure out the link between these clowns that are accusing you and her?<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Oh, I still do think that&#8217;s the best way to get to the bottom of this. But be careful.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Yeah. Always.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Shawn, I&#8217;m serious. I&#8217;m damn serious. I mean, if ava is using her connections&#8211;her mob connections, to make this all happen, there&#8217;s no telling what she&#8217;ll do.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Of course I would never hurt you, and neither would rafe.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: No? I did wonder there for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Wonder what?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: About the two of you. And sharing custody of that silly little bear. And I will admit, I&#8211;I was a little jealous at first. And the old me might&#8217;ve gone in there and chopped the poor guy&#8217;s head off. Hell, the old me would have aimed for some other body part if he&#8217;d have been anatomically correct. The old me. You know, the one who sabotaged steve&#8217;s plane and kidnapped kayla. Might have thought about framing rafe. Hell&#8230; I may have even thought about how good it would feel to bring him down. The old me might&#8217;ve thought once I can&#8217;t have him when he&#8217;s rotting in prison, then neither can you. You have to admit, it would&#8217;ve been perfect revenge.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Yeah, it would have been.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: But, of course, I am not the old me. I&#8217;m the new and improved ava vitali. Yes, I am perfectly sane. I am a law-abiding citizen who would never believe that her best friend and the man she loves would go behind her back and hook up.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Of course not. Listen, I have to go. But please tell rafe I said hi. How&#8217;s he doing?<\/p>\n<p>Ava: I have no idea. I mean, I&#8211;of course, I would love to see him, but I just think that it&#8217;s probably best if stay away right now because I wouldn&#8217;t want my&#8230; past connections to make anything worse for him. You know what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: I think I know exactly what you mean.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Mmm. Hey, can I help?<\/p>\n<p>Lani: This? One of the perks of being a mom. I am glad I&#8217;m not on duty today. The idea of melinda trask on one of her self-serving crusades and had rafe arrested for charges that everyone know are bogus? If I saw the woman, I&#8217;m afraid of what I might say to her.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: You know, I completely believe that rafe is innocent. But until he&#8217;s exonerated, I still have to find someone to run the department. I don&#8217;t suppose you&#8217;d be interested.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Thanks, but I&#8217;ve got my hands full.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Yes. Indeed you do. You know what? I&#8211;I&#8217;ve got to get down to the pd.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: I&#8217;m sorry carver and jules stayed asleep through your visit. But now I just hope that they will stay asleep through me getting them into the stroller.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Well, good luck with that and I&#8217;ll make sure I come see them when they&#8217;re awake.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Come back anytime you want, dad.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: You know, it means a lot you still call me that.<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Well, that is what you are to me, dad, always.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Aww.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: I understand your doubts, paulina. But I bet I can prove to you that I&#8217;ve changed.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: I seriously doubt that. And I&#8211;honestly, I don&#8217;t give a damn.<\/p>\n<p>Tr: At least let me take you out to dinner. I mean, for old time&#8217;s sake. I mean, I know that I can&#8217;t begin to make things up to you. But at least let me help you see that we were happy in the beginning&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: I don&#8217;t want to have dinner with you, ray. I don&#8217;t want to have another conversation with you. Now just&#8211;just&#8211;just get the hell out of my way and get out of dodge.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: You know, I better take chloe her coat. She is probably freezing out there.<\/p>\n<p>Brady: Do you want me to come with you?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Oh no, hon. I am sure everything&#8217;s okay. I just bet you anything that they went to the cart in the square to get a hot chocolate. Craig cannot resist temptation.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: So you&#8217;re in love with some guy you just met?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: It&#8217;s been a few months.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: And it&#8217;s love.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I&#8217;ve never felt this way before, chloe.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: But you&#8211;you said you&#8211;you love mom. Are you still in love with her?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I never meant to hurt her.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Are you still in love with her? Oh, my god. Oh my god, dad. Wow. So you&#8217;re&#8211;you&#8217;re not willing to break off things with this man?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: I won&#8217;T. I can&#8217;T.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Okay, well then at least respect mom enough to tell her the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: All right, I&#8217;m on it, rafe. I&#8217;ll report back to you as soon as I know anything.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Hey, thanks, man. I owe you.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Listen, we&#8217;re going to get you out of here.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Hi.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Nicole.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: I don&#8217;t suppose I could talk to rafe.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: No. Perfect timing. I will leave the two of you alone.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Thanks.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Oh, hey, shawn. How&#8217;s rafe doing?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: About as well as expected. I&#8217;m doing my best to try to, you know, keep him out of population. Hoping he&#8217;s out from under these charges soon.<\/p>\n<p>Abe: You and me both. But until these charges go away, I need to find someone to step in as acting commissioner. Now, with eli out of town, would you be willing to take on the most thankless job in salem?<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: Do I have a choice?<\/p>\n<p>Abe: Well, you know, if you&#8217;re worried about rafe&#8217;s feelings, I think he would be grateful to know that the department&#8217;s in the hands of someone he trusts.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn: You know, I&#8217;ll do it. But when you talk to rafe, I want you to tell him that I can&#8217;t wait for him to have his job back.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: You look pale.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: It&#8217;s only been one night. I&#8217;m fine.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: Well, if it&#8217;s any consolation, I don&#8217;t think you&#8217;ll be in here much longer. I went to see ava this morning&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Rafe: Well, you didn&#8217;t say anything to her, did you?<\/p>\n<p>Nicole: No. No, of course not. I played it cool. And so did she. And she didn&#8217;t admit to anything, not in so many words, but she didn&#8217;t leave a doubt in my mind that she is guilty as hell.<\/p>\n<p>Ava: You&#8217;re lucky I didn&#8217;t chop off your unmentionables, rafe. Maybe someone will take care of that for me when you&#8217;re in statesville.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: I mean it, dad. You have to tell mom that you&#8217;re in love with someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: There you two are. Is everything okay?<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Yeah. Everything is fine. Everything.<\/p>\n<p>Chloe: Yeah. Mom, dad has something he needs to tell you.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Oh.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Nancy, the phone call.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: No. No, no. I hope they didn&#8217;t call you to ask you to come home.<\/p>\n<p>Craig: Why not?<\/p>\n<p>Nancy: Because we&#8217;re staying in salem.<\/p>\n<p>[Tense music]<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Why are you still standing here?<\/p>\n<p>Tr: Well, last time I checked, you didn&#8217;t own this town. Although someday you might, knowing you. But in the meantime, I still have business with johnny dimera, and I&#8217;m not going anywhere until it&#8217;s settled.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina: Well&#8211;well, fine. Fine. But you&#8211;you&#8211;you stay out of my way. And if you go anywhere near my family, I swear&#8211; I swear I&#8217;ll&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Lani: Paulina?
