- Celeste tries to comfort Lexie, but Lexie will have none of it. She tells Celeste that she wants nothing to do with her and says their entire relationship has been built on a lie. Lexie says she'll never forgive her.

- Vivian informs Kate that she's here for revenge, but not on her. Viv says that hindsight being what it is, Vivian can see now that her beef with Kate never had anything to do with Kate, but everything to do with Victor.

- Sami and Lucas have an emotional reunion with Will at his hospital bedside.

- Paris/Kristen says that she thinks someone broke in and trashed the Penthouse! John has the police come and investigate. They say that there is no sign of a break-in.

- Bo and Hope are given good news about Zach. But Hope is in a zombie-like state and doesn't register the news.

- Kate asks Vivian what the hell she is talking about. She tells Kate that she is back in town for revenge on Victor for the way he treated her over the years. She can't remember why she ever loved such a cold-hearted old bastard. Kate informs Vivian that Shawn Sr. has recently passed and that Victor has been comforting Caroline. She fears that a reunion is in their future. Vivian says that it won't matter because she plans on bringing Victor to his knees.

- Paris/Kristen vows the ultimate revenge on Marlena. She declares her love for John, but says that this plan/scheme goes far beyond that. She's not going to let her love for John cloud her judgement this time.

- Alice and Mickey help Hope grieve.

- Billie is taken aback by Liam's reaction to Mason's death. It seems like it is a mix of anger, fear, grief, and guilt. Billie tries to let it go, but she still can't shake the feeling that something is not right with Liam.

- Vivian tells Kate that she used some of Ivan's left-over Lottery winnings to re-start Alamain International. Kate asks where Ivan is, and Vivian replies that he is still in Europe and that he wanted nothing to do with her revenge plans on Victor. Kate correctly guesses that Vivian is behind the plans to take down Titan. Vivian nods her head yes. Kate says that Vivian had everyone fooled since she just sold Victor back the 49% of her Titan Stock. Vivan counters that she also used that fortune to re-boost Alamain International. Not to mention, she says, that she wants nothing to do with Titan, financially, when it comes crashing down. Kate doesn't understand what any of this has to do with her. Vivian says that she wants Kate to join her company as the Vice President! Kate is floored.

- Hope is surprised by Doug and Julie's surprise visit to help comfort her.

- Celeste sees the Reaper disappear into thin air.

- Paris/Kristen re-calls how she had to wait YEARS to put her plan into action that allowed her to escape from the Harem Prison that Susan sent her to. She also remembers how she found an obituary of Paris Snyder, was able to have a surgeon duplicate her face and how that completed her taking over, and re-applied for a birth certificate as Paris and was able to take over her identity.

- Hope breaks down in the chapel with Billie. Hope opens up to Billie. Billie comforts her. Lexie interupts them. Lexie tells Hope that she should have kept her prissy, snobby son under a more watchful eye and it's HER fault all of thier children almost died tonight! Hope is horrified. Billie comes to Lexie's defense. Lexie tells Billie to back off. Lexie tells Hope that she has some damn nerve judging Lexie and condemning her for cheating on Abe. Lexie tells Hope to watch her back and exits. Hope breaks down in Billie's arms, but later Liam comes. Liam and Hope comfort one another.

- Sami and Lucas demand Celeste say why she said Will was the one to die. Celeste says that she had a premonition of Will's lifeless body. She doesn't know what went wrong...unless....unless her prophecy was not intended to mean the car crash...Sami and Lucas worry that Celeste's premonition for Will has yet to come true!

- Kate asks Vivian why she would trust her as V.P. of Alamain International. Vivian goes on to tell Kate that she knows Kate took over Titan when Victor had his stroke and made it soar to new heights. Vivian says her nephew, John, is a moron, and he could not possibly have been behind Basic Black's success. Then, when Kate joined Titan again, Basic Black went under. Vivian says that Kate is a good luck charm and a determined woman, and as much as she hates to say it, A.I.'s success hinges on Kate. Vivian also says that Kate has the power to steal Lucas, Billie, Austin, and Carrie away from Titan! But Kate again asks why Vivian would trust Kate with the Vice Presidency of the company and not be sure that Kate wouldn't sabotage Alamain. Vivian takes out a contract and signs it. She hands it to Kate. Kate is shocked as she reads the document outloud. It states that Vivian just signed Kate over 30% of the A.I. stock. Kate is floored. Vivian tells Kate if she has a vested interest in A.I.'s success, then she will work to make A.I. prevail. Kate says that she can't believe she's about to make a deal with the devil. Vivian says "Ditto! Now, let's do it! Let's make that old bag pay!" Kate throws Vivian around, puts the contract to Vivian's back, and signs it!
