Brady is sitting at the bar in the Cheatin’ Heart. A woman (Natalia Livingston) sits next to him.

Woman: Vodka please.

Brady looks over at her.

Brady: Rough day?

Woman: I just had the worst plane experience of my life. I’m Taylor by the way.

Brady: Brady.

They shake hands.

Brady: So, what brings you to Salem?

Taylor: Just here to visit family.

Brady: Oh, for the holidays?

Taylor: I guess. It’s been a while since I’ve seen my sister.

Chloe is in the kitchen of her and Daniel’s apartment. There is a knock at the door. She opens it, and Philip is standing outside.

Chloe: Philip! Hey; come in.

Philip comes in and Chloe closes the door.

Philip: How’s it going?

Chloe: Good. Parker’s finally sleeping. So what brings you here?

Philip: I need some advice.

Chloe: About what?

Philip: A gift for Melanie.

He takes a box out of a bag, and hands it to Chloe. She opens it, and it is a necklace.

Chloe: Wow, it’s beautiful!

Philip: You like it?

Chloe: It’s gorgeous. There’s just one problem.

Philip: What?

Maggie is sitting in the kitchen of her house. There is a knock at the door. She opens it, and it is Kate.

Kate: Hello Maggie, can I come in.

Maggie: Sure.

Kate walks in, and Maggie closes the door.

Maggie: You want a coffee? Or tea?

Kate: Coffee would be nice.

Maggie pours two cups of coffee, and puts them on the table.

Maggie: So, why the sudden urge to visit me?

Kate: The truth? I wanted to talk to you about Victor.

Stephanie is at the nurse’s station at the hospital. She opens a folder, and looks at Parker’s paternity test. She closes the folder, as Daniel comes.

Daniel: Hey Stephanie, did you get started on that fundraiser yet?

Stephanie: Yes, everything is in order, I just need to pick a date.

Daniel: Good. The kids will love it.

Stephanie: I know! They defiantly deserve it.

Daniel: Your right.

Daniel puts his folders on the counter, and goes behind the desk. He turns around to talk to a nurse, and Stephanie picks up the folder with the paternity test. She looks unsure, but finally puts it on top of Daniel’s pile of folders.

Brady and Taylor are sitting at the bar in the Cheatin’ Heart. Brady drinks another shot of vodka. He is noticeably drunk.

Brady: So she decides to leave me for her ex. Oh and his baby.

Taylor: Really?

Brady: Yup. It gets better. Her ex actually took the kid away from her mom.

Taylor: Wow. How can someone do that.

Brady: Don’t ask me.

Brady gets up, and almost falls over.

Brady: Well, I need to get home now.

Taylor: How are you getting home?

Brady: My car of course.

Taylor: I don’t think so. I’ll drive you. Where do you live?

She helps him walk to the door.

Brady: Oh, you know that place.

Taylor: Oh God.

She opens the door, and they go outside.

Taylor: If you don’t tell me where you live, then I’ll take you to my hotel.

Brady smiles.

Brady: That doesn’t sound like a bad idea.

He kisses her, catching her off guard.

Chloe and Philip are in her apartment.

Philip: What’s wrong with it?

Chloe: It just doesn’t seem like something Melanie would wear.

Philip: Really?

Chloe: Sorry. Maybe I’m wrong.

Philip: No, the more I look at it, the more I think your right.

Parker starts crying.

Chloe: Hold on a minute.

Philip: Wait, can I go?

Chloe: Of course! He loves you.

Philip smiles, and goes into Parker’s bedroom.

Maggie and Kate are sitting in the kitchen of Maggie’s house.

Maggie: Kate, please don’t get involved.

Kate: Maggie, please listen. In all the years I have known Victor, I have never seen him like this before.

Maggie: What do you mean?

Kate: The way he is with you. The way his face lights up when he sees you, or even talks about you.

Maggie: Kate, please-

Kate: Look, just think about it. Talk to him.

Maggie: I will.

Kate: Thank you. I have to go now. Please think about it.

Maggie: Bye, Kate.

Kate leaves, as Jennifer comes into the kitchen.

Maggie: Jennifer, hey I didn’t know you were coming.

Jennifer: There’s something I need to tell you, Aunt Maggie.

Maggie: Is something wrong?

Jennifer: It’s Hope. She’s in the hospital.

Maggie looks shocked.

Daniel picks up his files from the nurse’s station. He looks confused, when the top file says “Parker Jonas”.

Daniel: What’s this?

Daniel opens the file. He begins reading it.

Daniel: What the hell? I’m not Parker’s father?

He starts remembering all the times Chloe said she had to tell him something, and all the times she would start crying for no reason.

Daniel: Damn it!

He slams the file down. Stephanie walks by.

Stephanie: Is everything ok, Daniel?

Daniel: I need to leave.

Taylor unlocks the room to her hotel suite. She and Brady walk in.

Taylor: So, I’m going to forget about what happened outside the Cheatin’ Heart.

Brady: Why?

He moves closer to her.

Taylor: I hardly know you.

Brady: So?

He kisses her. They start to kiss more passionately, and she starts taking off his shirt. He takes off her shirt, and they go on the bed.

Maggie and Jennifer are sitting in Maggie’s kitchen.

Maggie: What the hell is going on in that place! We have to make sure she doesn’t go in there again!

Jennifer: We’re trying to make sure she doesn’t. Carly is working there to try and figure out what is going on, and I’m going to go inside, pretending to be an inmate-

Maggie: No your not! Jennifer, you can’t put yourself at risk like that!

Jennifer: Nothings going to happen, Aunt Maggie!

Maggie: And how does Bo feel about this? I’m sure he jumped for joy when you told him your little plan.

Jennifer gets up.

Jennifer: He’s a little reluctant, but he’ll come around.

Taylor and Brady are lying naked in Taylor’s bed at the hotel. She gets up, and puts a robe on. She sees Brady’s wallet, open on the floor. She sees a picture of Nicole.

Taylor: What the hell?

She looks closer.

Taylor: Wow, Nikki. What a small world.

Chloe is sitting in her apartment. She picks up the box with the necklace that Philip bought. She calls Philip.

Chloe: Hey, you forgot the necklace.

Philip: Oh shoot, I’ll come pick it up tomorrow.

Chloe: Ok, see you tomorrow.

Chloe hangs up, and Daniel opens the door, looking mad.

Chloe: Daniel, what’s wrong?

Daniel slams the folder on the desk.

Chloe: What’s that?

Daniel: Open it, Chloe.

Chloe looks scared as she picks up the folder.
