Nicole, who has followed the both of them, is nearly seen by Sami. She ducks out of sight. Meanwhile, back in the ballroom, Lucas is worried about Sami and thinks they need to go after her. Austin wonders how they can do that when all these armed men are standing around above them. Carrie says they need to find a way. Evan and Will a
-Orpheus: My, my, Roman. You should be used to seeing people come back from the dead in this town.
Orpheus chuckles at Roman as Roman and the rest of the guests are stunned by seeing this man’s face once again, after 20 long years. Bo can’t believe it, as Victor steps forward and asks Orpheus....

Marlena: I wouldn’t do that if I were you, partner.

The MCF looks out a porthole in the captain's quarters of the cruise ship. Ernesto enters.
Ernesto: Almost everyone is either in attendance or on their way. Looks like everything has come together as we envisioned it.

Katherine walks out of the bathroom and asks Cal who was at the door. Cal responds, telling her that someone has sent him a letter. As Katherine dries her hair before dinner, they both sit down as Cal opens the letter and starts reading it....
Cal: This is just......strange.
Katherine: What? What is it?

-On the cruise ship, Tony sits in a chair and looks at Anna, who is sitting on their bed. He quietly asks her what is wrong with her. She says she’s fine but Tony says he knows differently. She can’t hide anything from him. So, since they have so much time on their hands, she might as well tell him what is the matter. Anna stands up from the bed and walks towards the window of their room and looks out. She turns and starts to tell Tony but then stops herself and starts walking towards the door.
