Bo walks into his house, and Carly is sitting on the couch. Carly gets up, and kisses Bo. Carly: Hey. How was Hope? Bo: Good. You should have come. She would have liked it. Carly: It’s ok. I had some work at the hospital. Bo: Between our jobs, and everything going on with Hope, me and you haven’t had a lot of time together. Carly: I know I’m sorry. Bo: It’s not your fault. I want to make it up to you. Carly smiles. Carly: How can you do that? Bo: I could think of a few ways. Bo kisses her, and they start going upstairs. Stephanie is about to walk into the locker room at the hospital, but hears Nathan and Melanie. Melanie: I can’t believe how fast everything changed. We were so happy, but I think I was just fooling myself. And I think you and Stephanie are doing the same thing. Nathan: What are you talking about? Melanie: You know what I’m talking about, Nathan. There’s still a connection between us. Nathan: I’m happy with Stephanie. Melanie: That’s what I was telling myself when I was with Philip. Nathan: Even if I did still have feelings for you, why would I act on them? Was I just supposed to be here waiting for you to leave Philip? Give me a break Melanie. Melanie leaves the locker room, as Stephanie quickly walks away. Carrie and Brady are sitting in the Java Café. Brady: So, Sami couldn’t make it today? Carrie: She had to take Ali for a check-up. She said she’ll come when she’s done. Brady: Oh. Well we could have gone later. Carrie: She said not to worry about it. Brady: I wish there was something I could do; to get her kids back to her. Carrie: Me too. I can’t believe someone could be that heartless. Brady: That’s EJ DiMera. Carrie’s phone rings. Brady: Who is it? Carrie: I don’t recognize the number. Carrie picks it up. Carrie: Hello? Carrie hears noise in the background. Carrie: Is somebody there? Carrie hangs up. Brady: Who was that? Carrie: I have no idea. Kate is sitting at a table in Chez Rouge. She looks at her watch. Kate: Where the hell is she? Jillian comes rushing over to the table. Jillian: Ms. Roberts, I’m so sorry; you will not believe the mess I got into at the airport. Kate: As long as it doesn’t become a habit. Kate smiles. They shake hands. Kate: It’s nice to meet you. Jillian: You too. I’m really excited to start working for Basic Black. Kate: So am I. Your designs are the best I’ve seen in a long time. Jillian: Thank you. Kate: So, I was thinking of getting you to design a whole new line for Basic Black, and if all goes well, then there will be more. Jillian: That sounds great. Kate: Are you ready to relocate, though? Jillian: What do you mean? Bo and Carly are lying in bed together, after making love. Carly is sleeping while Bo is wide awake. He flashes back to making love to Hope. He gets up, gets dressed, and goes downstairs. His phone rings and he picks it up. Bo: Hello? Julie: Bo, hey. Ciara wanted to stay for dinner, and I was wondering if you wanted to come too. Bo: Sure. Sounds good. I’ll be there soon. Bo hangs up the phone. Melanie is sitting at a table in the Cheatin’ Heart, having a drink. Stephanie walks in, and walks to her table. Melanie: What the hell is your problem? Stephanie: Listen, you pathetic slut, because I’m only going to say this once. Stay the hell away from Nathan. He does not want you! Get over it! He loves me! Melanie: If you feel so confident that he loves you, then why are you here? It shouldn’t worry you if you thought he loves you so much. Melanie sips her drink, as Stephanie punches her in the face. Melanie falls over. She gets up. Melanie: You are going to be sorry! Melanie goes after her, and Stephanie pushes her. Melanie grabs a pool stick, and hits Stephanie with it. Everyone in the bar gets up, and tries to stop them. Stephanie pushes people out of the way, and punches Melanie again. Melanie: You crazy bitch! Adrienne walks into the bar. She rushes over to them.

Carrie and Brady are sitting in the Java Café. Carrie: I’m going to go use the washroom. Brady: Ok. Carrie gets up, and pauses for a minute. Brady: Are you ok? Carrie starts to get dizzy. She holds her head. Brady gets up. Brady: Carrie? Carrie collapses, and Brady catches her. Brady: Oh my God. Sami walks in. She rushes to Carrie and Brady. Sami: Oh my God! What happened? Brady: I don’t know she just collapsed. Sami: We have to take her to the hospital! Bo walks into the Horton house. He walks into the living room, and sees Ciara, Doug, and Julie sitting on the couch. Ciara: Daddy! Bo: Hey sweetie. Bo hugs her. Ciara: I want to come home daddy. Bo: You are sweetie. Don’t worry. Jennifer walks into the living room. Jennifer: Dinner’s almost ready. Oh hey Bo. She hugs him. Bo: How’s it going? Jennifer: Ok. You? Bo: Not bad. Doug: Ciara, why don’t you come with me and grandma into the kitchen? Doug, Julie, and Ciara go into the kitchen. Bo: Hear anything from Jack? Jennifer: Nope. I’m not worried. He can do whatever the hell he wants. I don’t care anymore. Kate and Jillian are sitting at a table in Chez Rouge. Kate: I mean, you’re a smart, beautiful, successful woman. You must be involved with someone. You want to relocate here? Jillian chuckles. Jillian: I’m not really involved with anyone. Not seriously at least. Kate: I see. Kate sees Bill and Abby walking into the restaurant. Kate: Well, I’m glad your joining Basic Black. Have fun. Jillian: Thank you. I will. They both get up. Kate walks over to Bill. Kate: Bill, hi. Bill: Kate, it’s good to see you. Kate: Hello, Abby. Wow you’ve gotten so big. Abby smiles. Abby: Yeah. Abby looks at Bill. Abby: I’m going to get a table. Abby walks to the hostess. Bill: So, how’s everything going? Kate: Alright. How about you? Bill: Ok. So I was surprised to hear that you married Stefano. Kate: Yeah, well that’s over now. Bill: Oh, well that’s good. Kate smiles at him. Stephanie and Adrienne are standing at the bar in the Cheatin’ Heart. Adrienne: What the hell has gotten into you! If your this insecure about your relationship with Nathan, then there is something wrong! Stephanie: I’m not insecure! I know he loves me. I was just telling that bitch to stop bothering him with her petty problems. Adrienne: Stephanie, you need to stop this. Don’t you understand that she likes it when you get upset like this? Stephanie: Whatever. I swear if she goes near him again with one of her stupid problems- Adrienne: What? Your going to punch her in the face again? Stephanie: Maybe. Carrie is lying awake in a hospital room. Amelia walks into the room. Amelia: Hello Carrie. Carrie: Hi doctor. Please tell me that my baby is ok. Amelia: Carrie, I wish I could, but right now I’m not sure. Carrie: Well, what do you think is wrong? Amelia: I’m not sure yet, although I’ve been thinking of something, but I need to run more tests first. Carrie: Please tell me what you think it is. Amelia: I don’t want to add any more stress on you by telling you something I am not even certain of. Right now, just rest, and I will be back soon. Carrie: Thank you. Amelia leaves the room, and Sami and Brady walk over to her? Sami: Is she ok? Amelia: I’m not sure yet. I need to run a few more tests. Brady: Can we go see her? Amelia: Yes, but please, it is very important that you do not give her any stress. Sami: Thank you. Amelia leaves, and Sami and Brady go into Carrie’s room. Bo and Jennifer are standing in the living room of the Horton house. Bo: I find it hard to believe that you don’t care about Jack. Jennifer: Why? And why should I? He not only abandoned me, he abandoned his kids! Every night before I put JJ to bed, he asks when his father is coming home, and I don’t have an answer! Bo: Jen, sometimes it’s not always black and white. Maybe he needed to clear his head, and when he does, he will realize what’s most important in his life. Jennifer: Whatever. I don’t care. I have my family here, Hope is safe, and that’s all that matters to me right now. Bill and Kate are standing in Chez Rouge. Kate: So, how long are you in Salem for? Bill: I’m not sure yet. Kate notices Abby looking at them. Kate: Well, your granddaughter is waiting for you; you should go. Bill: Ok. We should catch up sometime. Kate: I’d like that. Kate hands him a card. Kate: My cell number is on there. Bill: I’ll be sure to call you. Kate smiles. Kate: See you. Bill: Bye. Kate leaves, and Bill walks over to the table, and sits across from Abby. Abby: Please tell me that card she gave you didn’t have her number on it. Bill: She’s an old friend, Abby. We just wanted to catch up. Abby: That’s all well and good, but don’t forget that kind of woman that she is. You know the kind that poisons people who look at her the wrong way. Bill: So, what are you getting? Abby: Ok, change the subject. Bill smiles, and picks up his menu. Happy New Year!

They walk into the living room. Jennifer: Well, I know how fond you are of Hope, and I wanted you here to celebrate. It will really make her feel good to see all her loved ones here.

EJ: Wow, you weren’t kidding about lunch. Jillian laughs. Jillian: I just can’t wait until dessert. He smiles at her, and kisses her. EJ: Maybe we should have dessert first. Jillian: I like the sound of that. He kisses her. Bo and Hope walk into the Horton house. Hope: Oh my God. Bo: What? Hope: You have no idea how good it feels to be inside here. I can feel gram’s spirit. Bo: That’s good. They walk into the living room, and she looks shocked as she sees Doug, Julie, Jennifer, Maggie, Ciara, Victor, Nathan, Stephanie, Roman, Caroline, Justin, Adrienne, Carrie, Sami Abe, and Lexie.

Sami, Carrie, and Stephanie are sitting on the couch in the living room. Carrie: Maybe Melanie called about the patient. Sami: Yeah, she works at the hospital, doesn’t she? Stephanie: She does, but that’s not why she called. She just needs a man to lean on because she’s so damn dependant. Sami: Stephanie, if this is what Nathan is doing to you, then it’s not worth it. Carrie: You two need to have a serious conversation, and decide what to do here. Victor and Maggie are standing in the living room.

Outside, Hope hugs Bo. Hope: This wouldn’t have been possible without you. Bo: I guess I had a little something to do with it. Hope laughs. Hope: You had a lot to do with it. Hope hugs him again. Hope: Thank you.

Carrie: Yeah, I’m fine. Just thinking about my life. How I’m getting what I’ve always wanted, this baby, and how I’m loosing my marriage. Rafe: I’m sorry about that. Carrie: Are you ok?

Why don’t you join me in about an hour? EJ: How can I refuse an offer like that? Jillian smiles. Jillian: Room 307. EJ: I’m looking forward to it. Jillian gets up, and EJ smiles. Nicole and Taylor are sitting at the table in the dining room. Taylor: Not a bad dinner. Been a while since we actually had a dinner together. Nicole: Taylor, I’d like to change that. Taylor: Why? After all these years. Nicole: I know things weren’t always great between us- Taylor: That’s an understatement. Nicole: But, we can get over all that. Come on, you’re my little sister. Taylor: If I didn’t come back to Salem, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation. Nicole: Can we just forget about all that? We are here now, and that’s all that matters. Taylor: What about mom? Nicole: Oh boy. Taylor: She’s worried about you! She thinks your loosing your mind after everything that happened with Sydney. Nicole: I am not loosing my mind! I am finally getting what’s mine, and that’s Sydney! Taylor: Whatever you say. It’s funny how you are looking for a family when you have one that actually accepts you. Nicole: Taylor, I have had enough of this. If you don’t approve of my life, then you can leave. Or is this because your jealous? Taylor laughs. Taylor: Jealous of what? Please Nicole, you have nothing I want. Carrie walks into the Brady Pub, and sees Kate sitting. She walks to Kate, and Kate gets up. Kate: It’s so good to see you. Kate hugs her. They sit down. Kate: So, is something going on? You seemed pretty anxious on the phone. Carrie: It’s about Austin. Have you spoken to him recently? Kate: Not really. I know it’s no excuse, but I’ve been busy, I assume he’s been busy. Why? Is something wrong? Carrie: We’ve been having problems for a while now. Kate: What’s causing these problems? Carrie: It’s about me wanting kids. Kate looks at her stomach. Kate: I was going to ask. Carrie: Yes, I’m pregnant. Chloe is sitting in the apartment, crying. There is a knock at the door. She opens it, and Philip is standing outside. Philip hugs her. Philip: It’s going to be ok. Chloe: No it’s not. Our marriages are both over! Daniel lost a son. Your life has been turned around. I made such a huge mess. Philip: Were going to figure it out, Chloe. Chloe: Look, I really don’t know about moving into Victor’s. He hates me, and I don’t want to get started with your mother.

Kate: There’s something really weird about this. Carrie: I don’t know. This is how he was always acting. When Will left to come back here, I talked to him about wanting kids, and that’s when he started working extra hours, taking more business trips.

EJ: At least your right about something, Samantha. Sami turns around. Sami: You really think you’ve done the right thing, don’t you? Ripping kids away from their mother, exposing my kids to that thing! EJ: Oh, Samantha. Nicole is a far better mother than you ever were! You use your children as pawns to get whatever you want. You started before Will was even born! Using him to get that dummy Austin. EJ laughs. EJ: And now you’ve lost them because you’ve decided that your flavour of the week is more important. Oh, Samantha you could have had it all. Money, a big house, your children, but you decided to throw it all away. Sami: You kidnapped my daughter and hid her from me for months! You faked her death, and why? Just so you can get your petty revenge? EJ: Petty revenge! You hid your pregnancy from me, and then decided to tell me everything when who we thought was our daughter died! Sami: This all wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for Nicole! EJ: Nicole? My dear, you are to blame for this entire mess. Jennifer is sitting in Jane’s office. Jane walks in. Jane: Hello, I’m the warden, Jane. It’s nice to meet you. Jennifer: You too. They shake hands. Jane: So, it’s a little odd that I found out about you from one of the doctors. Jennifer looks shocked, but quickly hides it. Jennifer: Oh, what do you mean? Jane: I didn’t know we were getting a new guard. Then one of the doctors, Dr. Walters actually, pointed me out to you. Jennifer: Oh, interesting. Jane: Yeah, interesting. Also interesting the amount of time you spend talking to Hope Brady. Jennifer: I know her from when I used to work at the station. Just catching up. Jane: You knew her from work, eh? Jennifer: Yes. Now I think I should get back to work. Jennifer starts to get up. Jane: Not so fast. Jennifer sits back down. Jane: Let’s cut the crap. I know your Hope’s cousin. Here to protect her from whatever is going on in here. I know about Dr. Manning’s part in this too, and your not going to get away with all this. Jennifer gets up, as Lee comes in. Jennifer: Look, I can explain- Jane: Lee, take her to a cell. I’ll deal with her and the good doctor later. Victor and Kate walk out of the elevator of the Penthouse Grille. Kate: Are you sure this is a good idea? Victor: I’m going to put an end to this all. Vivian sees them, and waves them over. Kate: I hope so. Victor and Kate walk to the table and sit down. Vivian: Were so glad you could join us! Victor takes out Vivian’s bill, and throws it in her plate. Stefano laughs. Stefano: If you think that’s an issue, just wait. Victor: Both of you listen, and listen good! Whatever you two are planning, drop it! We will not be giving into any of your foolish demands! Vivian: Really? Victor, you would do well to remember that I have evidence against all of you, for what you put me through! Stefano: And Katherine, you remember that I have all the evidence from your little brownie incident with Chloe. Kate: What the hell do you want? Stefano and Vivian both take out a folder. Stefano hands one to Kate, and Vivian hands one to Victor. Vivian: Read it. Sami and EJ are standing on the pier. Sami: How the hell is this my fault! EJ: Let’s see. You decided to hide your pregnancy from me. Which landed you in Dr. Baker’s clinic. If I had known you were pregnant, I would have made sure you were taken care of somewhere else. You would not have given birth in that clinic, and Nicole would never have had the opportunity to switch those babies. Sami: You bastard! I was almost shot on your doorstep! I didn’t want to bring another child into that family! EJ: Oh please, Samantha. There you go making excuses for everything you do. You shoot someone in the head, and still find a way to make yourself look like the victim! Sami: Go to hell, EJ! Sami walks away. EJ: Yes, Samantha, walk away! Because you know I’m right! Carly is brought to a prison cell. She walks in, and Jennifer is sitting in it as well. Jennifer: Carly! What happened! Jane comes in. Jane: Now, doctor, I find it so odd that you would help your boyfriend’s wife. Carly: That’s because I didn’t want to help her. Jennifer looks confused. Jane: What are you talking about? Carly: When Hope told us what was going on, I though it was my opportunity to get rid of her. That’s why I agreed to help them, so I could get in on this, and get rid of her. She looks at Jennifer. Carly: I had no idea she was planning to come in here. Jane laughs. Jane: You expect me to believe that story? Carly: Yes, because it’s true. Jane: Fine then, come with me. Jennifer: No! Carly, don’t do this! Carly gets up, and her and Jane leave the cell. Bo and a few other detectives come around the corner, and stop in front of Jane. Jane: What the hell’s going on here? Bo goes behind her, and starts handcuffing her. Bo: Jane Smith, you are under arrest. Carly looks back at Jennifer and smiles. Victor, Kate, Stefano and Vivian are sitting at a table in the Penthouse Grille. Victor and Kate look shocked as they read the papers. Victor throws them down on the table. Victor: Are you insane! Kate: Eighty percent of Basic Black, and Hearth and Home! What the hell do you guys think your doing! Stefano: It’s quite simple, Katherine, Victor. You two just continue working as you do, and give Vivian and I what we asked for. Vivian: Titan is mine, Victor. Victor: There is no way we are agreeing to this! Vivian: Ok, then Stefano and I will have our popcorn and drink ready as we watch you two get hauled off to jail. Victor and Kate look at each other. Kate: I would expect this from her, this snake, but not you Stefano. Kate gets up and throws her napkin in Stefano’s face. Kate: Both of you rot in hell! Kate walks to the elevator. Vivian: Well, Victor. You know what’s right. Victor gets up and takes the folders. He follows Kate. Vivian: I think that went well. Stefano: Indeed. Nicole in walking down the hall in the DiMera mansion. She sees EJ in one of the bedrooms, tearing everything apart. Nicole: What the hell? EJ: Where the hell is it? Nicole moves, as EJ throws a book. Nicole: What the hell is going on? What are you looking for? EJ: The camera! It’s gone. Nicole looks shocked. Nicole: What! How could it be gone! EJ: I left it right in this box! Nicole: EJ, are you sure you didn’t just misplace it? EJ: Of course I’m sure! Damn it. Nicole moves closer to him. Nicole: Ok, calm down EJ. We still have it on computer. She puts her hand on his shoulder. EJ: Your right. But I still need to find it. Nicole: Ok, just calm down. We can look for it later. You look like your going to burst a vein or something. Roman is in his office. He takes out a box from his desk, and opens it. He takes out Arianna’s camera. He holds it in his hand for a while. Roman: This is for the best. He takes out the memory card. He puts the camera back in the box, and looks at the memory card. He snaps it in half and throws it on his desk. Roman: Almost there, Sami. Hope is sitting in Bo’s office at the police station. Bo walks in. Hope gets up, and he hugs her. Hope: I don’t know how I can thank you. Bo: Don’t worry about it. Jennifer walks in, and hugs Hope. Jennifer: Thank God your ok! Hope: Jennifer, I can’t believe you did that! Do you know how much trouble you could have gotten into? Jennifer: It was all worth it, Hope. Jennifer turns to Bo. Jennifer: So, any word? Will Hope be able to come home? Bo: The judge needs to set up another trial. Jennifer: She just busted a corrupt warden! Who knows how many other women would have died if it wasn’t for Hope! She would be released imminently! Hope: Jen, it’s not that easy. Don’t worry, though. Everything is going to be ok. Jennifer: I’m so glad your ok. Hope: Where’s Carly? I need to thank her for what she did. EJ is sitting on his bed in his room. Nicole brings him a glass of water. Nicole: Here, drink. EJ takes the glass, and drinks. EJ: Thank you. Nicole: No problem. Nicole turns to leave the room. EJ: Stay, Nicole. Nicole turns around. Nicole: You want me to stay? That’s a little odd. EJ: I wanted to thank you for everything. Nicole: Are you feeling alright? EJ holds her arm. EJ: I mean it, Nicole. He moves closer to her. Nicole looks at him. Nicole: EJ- EJ kisses her. Rafe is sitting on the couch in his apartment. Sami walks in. Sami: Hey. Rafe: Hi. Sami: How was your day? Rafe: It was ok. What about you? Sami: I ran into EJ on the pier. Rafe: What happened? Sami: Just blamed me for this entire mess. And the more I think about it, the more I think he’s right. Rafe: Sami, he isn’t. Sami: Rafe, stop. I should have never have hidden my pregnancy. I would never be in this mess I’m in now. Rafe: Sami- Sami: I’m going to go take a nap. Victor and Kate are in the living room of the Kirikas mansion. Kate: There is no way we are agreeing to this. Victor: I don’t like it either, Kate, but until I figure something out, this is what we have to do! Kate: No! Victor: What, do you think Stefano wouldn’t do this to you? That your special to him? Stefano doesn’t care about you! Kate: You don’t know what your talking about. Victor: Ok, let’s play your game. Let’s pretend Stefano loves you and wouldn’t turn in the evidence. Do you think Vivian won’t turn in her evidence against you? Kate starts pouring herself a drink. Kate: We need to figure something out, now! Victor: I will. Stefano and Vivian are in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Vivian: I’m surprised we haven’t heard anything from them yet. Stefano: I’m sure we will soon. Stefano pours two drinks, and hands one to Vivian. Hope is sitting in Bo’s office. Carly walks in. Hope gets up. Hope: Carly, I don’t know how I can thank you. Carly: Hope, don’t worry about it. Hope: Carly, you risked your life to help me. I owe you so much. Carly: I know a way you can thank me. Hope: How? Carly: Stop feeling sorry for what you did while you were on those pills. Fight for yourself to get out of prison, to be with your family, your daughter. Hope, I didn’t have the chance to be with my daughter, watch her grow up, raise her. But you do. Please don’t loose these important years. Please, Hope. Hope starts crying. Hope: Thank you so much. Hope hugs Carly. Nicole is in her room at the DiMera mansion. She flashes back to EJ kissing her. Nicole: Wow. Didn’t see that one coming. Rafe walks into the Cheatin’ Heart. He sits next to Amelia at the bar. Amelia: You look like you can use a drink. Rafe: That would be great. Rafe orders a drink. Rafe: So, what brings you here? Amelia: I’ve been having a rough couple days at work. New job, new home. Rafe: Oh, you just moved to Salem. Amelia: Yup. Rafe: How are you liking it? Amelia: It’s ok. I met a lot of nice people. Rafe: That’s good. He sips his drink, and smiles at her.

Chad is sitting on the couch in his apartment. There is a knock at the door. He goes to open the door, and Will is standing outside. Chad: Hey. What are you doing here? Will: Can I come in? Chad: Sure. Will comes in, and Chad closes the door. Chad: So, what brings you here? Will: I wanted to apologize to you. Chad: Will, I should be the one apologizing.

Victor: Don’t play smart with me! Philip: In the end, it all comes down to Vivian. Stefano and Vivian are sitting in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Stefano: So, how did Victor respond to your bill? Vivian: He didn’t, actually. Which means he hasn’t received it yet, or he had a heart attack. Stefano laughs. Stefano: Wait until he sees what we have for him tomorrow. Vivian: Oh, I’m sure he’s going to love that. Stefano: Well, I think our plan deserves a toast. Stefano gets up, and starts pouring champagne. He hands a glass to Vivian. Vivian: To Victor and Kate. Stefano: May they get everything they deserve. They clink their glasses, and take a sip. Nicole walks in, with Sydney. Nicole: Oh God. My nightmare has come true. Vivian: Is that Sydney! Vivian moves closer to her, as Nicole backs away.

Jane: That’s too bad commissioner. Hope is all better now. Time to come home. The guard helps Hope off the bed. Hope looks at Bo, and Bo gives her a look of reassurance. Jane: Well, you guys might as well say bye, because Hope here is going back to solitary. Bo: Jane, why are you doing this? Jane: Hope broke the rules. I can’t just let it go because of her last name. Bo: She’s been punished enough. Hope: Bo, it’s ok. Hope hugs him. Hope(whispering in his ear): Thank you. Jane, Hope, and the guard leave the room.

Chloe: Goodbye. Chloe leaves the mansion. Kate: What the hell were you thinking? Philip: I didn’t plan on this, mom! Victor: Next time use protection! Or keep it in your pants!

Stefano, Vivian, and Nicole are standing in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Nicole is holding Sydney. Nicole: Well, I’m going upstairs until this leaves.

Vivian takes out her phone, and dials Victor’s number. Victor: Hello? Vivian: Victor, darling! So great to hear you alive! I hope my little gift didn’t cause quite a stir! Victor: Vivian, I swear to God I will ring that scrawny neck before I pay this bill! Vivian: We can discuss it over breakfast tomorrow. Victor: Are you insane?

Melanie: I’m right here. Kate: I’ll give you guys a minute. Kate leaves the room. Philip: Mel- Melanie: Stop. I don’t want to do this anymore. I don’t know why I fooled myself into believing that I can live like this, with someone like you. What you did with Chloe just makes it even more clear. Melanie takes off her wedding ring, and puts it on the table. Philip: Please, Melanie. Melanie: Philip, it’s for the best. Look at us. We weren’t meant for each other. It’s for the best. Good luck, Philip. Melanie leaves the mansion. Daniel and Chloe are standing in their apartment. Daniel: So, where do we go from here? Chloe: Daniel, please, it was only one night! Daniel: One night, that created a baby! You lied to me for months! Hell, how do I even know it wasn’t you that changed the results? Chloe: Come on, Daniel! Daniel: I need some time to process this, and think it through. Chloe: Daniel, please. Can we talk about this? Daniel: I’ve heard enough from you. Daniel leaves the apartment, and Chloe cries. Chloe hears Parker crying from the baby monitor. She picks it up, and throws it at the door. Hope, Jennifer, and Carly are standing in Hope’s cell. Hope: This is crazy! Jen, you can get yourself in trouble! Jennifer: Don’t worry, Hope. Carly: I’m so close. I almost have enough evidence to prove what’s going on here. Jennifer: And this whole nightmare will be over. Carly: I need to go. I’ll check if anything happened recently. Hope: Thank you guys so much. Ben is seen outside her cell, listening. He goes to Jane’s office. Jane: Is something wrong?

I knew I should have taken care of her the second I suspected her of knowing anything! Ben: What do we do now? Jane: Get rid of all three of them! Ben looks uneasy.

Stephanie: Maybe I should just end it with him before it becomes worse. Sami: I think that’s a good idea. Carrie: Sami- Sami: It’s true, Carrie. Look at me, what I did to hold onto a man. It’s not worth it. Stephanie: Your right, Sami. Victor, Vivian, and Kate are sitting at a table in Chez Rouge. Vivian: You two are being unbelievably rude!

Vivian: Well, first, I was wondering about this whole baby switch thing. How do we know for certain that the babies were actually switched? Were tests ever done to prove Samantha was the mother? Stefano: Vivian, if this is what you had to tell me, I suggest you leave before I throw you out. Vivian: Ok, there is something else. Something you will be very interested in. Maggie is outside of Hope’s room with flowers. Guard: I’m sorry, she isn’t allowed any visitors. Maggie: This is insane! I need to see my niece! Guard: Sorry, Mrs. Horton, I can’t let you in. Bo opens the door. Bo: Let her in. Maggie walks in, and puts the flowers on the table. Bo: I’ll give you two a minute. Bo leaves the room. Maggie: Oh, thank God your alright. She hugs Hope. Maggie: Jennifer told me what has been going on, Hope. Hope: She did? Maggie: Yes! And you should have not put yourself in danger like that! You should have gone straight to Bo, and told him, instead of investigating all this on your own. Hope: Aunt Maggie, please I’m fine, everything is ok. Maggie: You are not going to go back to that prison, do I make myself clear? Hope smiles. Hope: I’ve missed you so much. Maggie hugs her. Brady, Nicole, and Taylor are sitting in the Java Café. Nicole: So, you just go around telling random strangers our business? Brady: I was drunk, Nicole. Taylor: And why do you care, Nikki? You dumped him for a baby. Nicole: Taylor, mind your own damn business. Taylor: Wow, not even a how are you? How have you been these past years? Nicole: You weren’t very welcoming either. Brady: I’m going to go get another coffee. Brady gets up. Taylor: So, how has your life been? Steal any babies recently? Nicole: Oh, shut up. Taylor: Ok, seriously now, how have you been? Nicole sips her coffee. Philip and Melanie are in the kitchen of Maggie’s house. Philip: I need to go now, but I’ll talk to you later. Melanie: Philip, tell me what’s going on! Philip leaves. Stefano and Vivian are standing in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Stefano: So, spit it out what will I be interested in? Vivian: Well, last night I was at the Java Café, getting some coffee, minding my- Stefano: Vivian! Vivian: Ok, so I was outside, and I saw the lovely Samantha plotting with her uncle. Stefano: Get to the point. Vivian: Well, they were talking about a gun, the gun Samantha used to shoot Elvis, I assume. Anyway Bo was talking about getting a search warrant for here, and tearing it up and down, looking for the gun. Vivian smiles. Stefano smiles. Stefano: Ha! Samantha thinks she has the upper hand now? Vivian: Yes, I assume so. Stefano: Well, thank you Vivian. Vivian: Well, when do we discuss out plans? Stefano: When I call you. I have some things to take care of. Vivian: Very well then. I’ll expect your call soon. Vivian leaves. Stefano dials EJ’s number. Stefano: Come home. We need to discuss something. Philip and Chloe are sitting in Chloe’s apartment. Philip: So, what should we do? Chloe: I don’t know. Daniel’s not answering his phone. Where the hell could he be? The door opens, and Carly helps Daniel through the door. Daniel sees Philip. Daniel: What the hell are you doing here? Carly: Daniel, calm down. Daniel: Oh, didn’t I tell you? Philip is the guy Chloe cheated with. Carly looks shocked. Carly: What? Is this true? Melanie comes through the door. Melanie: What the hell’s going on? Daniel: Tell her, Philip. Tell your wife what you’ve been doing. Nicole and Taylor are sitting in the Java Café. Nicole: So, what are you doing in Salem anyway? Taylor: I wanted to see you. And see if we can actually have a relationship. Nicole: So you decided to start off by sleeping with my ex? Taylor: Come on, Nicole! I didn’t know he had anything to do with you. Nicole: Ok. So have you talked to mom lately? Taylor: Yes. It wouldn’t kill you to call her once in a while. Nicole: I’ll call her. I’ve just been busy. Brady comes back. Nicole: Well, I need to go now. I’ll see you guys later. Nicole leaves. Philip and Melanie are outside in the hall. Melanie: Philip, what’s going on? Philip: I need to tell you something. Melanie: Ok, tell me. Philip: The man Chloe had an affair with; it was me. Melanie looks shocked. Melanie: You bastard! She slaps him. Melanie walks back into the room, and slaps Chloe. Melanie: So, why did it come out now? Is it Parker? Is Philip the father? Daniel: Why don’t we go to the hospital and figure that out? Daniel, Carly, and Melanie leave the apartment. Chloe is crying. Philip hugs her. Philip: It’s going to be ok.

Stefano, EJ, and Nicole are in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Stefano: Elvis, what the hell are you thinking moving her back in here? EJ: Father, we already discussed this. Nicole: I’m right here, you know. Stefano ignores her. Stefano: She drove Chad away! Nicole: I did not drive Chad away, first of all! Second, what was he doing here anyway? Are you guys buddies? EJ: Oh, you didn’t here? Father here has just found out that he sired another son years ago. Nicole: Wow Stefano, what is that now, 15 kids? Stefano: Shut up, Nicole! Chad is sitting in the Java Café. Vivian walks in, and hurries to his table. Vivian: Hello, Chad! I’m Vivian Alamain! She grabs his hand and shakes it. Chad: Do I know you? Vivian: Oh, I’m an old friend of your fathers! Your biological one, that is. Chad: Great. Vivian: So, lets just get to the point. Why don’t you try and connect with him? He is a very influential man, you know? Chad: I know. Why are you doing this? Did Stefano send you to talk to me? Vivian: Oh, God no! Why is it that you don’t want anything to do with him? Chad: Look at that family! Most of his kids are dead. Just a little while ago, Nicole faked a pregnancy, and switched babies! One of which was mine, who died! Vivian: Oh my, you were the father of Mia’s baby? Chad: Yes, and now I will never have the chance to know my daughter. Vivian: Hold on just a minute. Chad: What? Vivian: Nicole says the babies were switched? Chad: So? Vivian: Who did the switching? Daniel and Chloe are in their apartment. Chloe opens the folder, and sees Parker’s paternity test. Chloe looks shocked. Chloe: What the hell is this? Daniel: You know damn well what that is! Chloe: Daniel, I can explain! Daniel: You better explain! Chloe: Daniel, you are the father! I promise! Daniel: Not according to this! All those times you had to tell me something, bursting into tears at the drop of a hat; this is why! You cheated on me, and had some other guy’s kid! Chloe starts crying. Chloe: No! Daniel, please, you don’t understand. It was the night that I thought you were cheating on me. I made a stupid mistake! I took a paternity test before Parker was born, you are his father! Daniel: How do I know your not lying? You’ve lied about everything else! Who is it? Who’s Parker’s father? Bo, Jennifer and Maggie are in Maggie’s kitchen. Maggie: Bo, please tell me you aren’t going to let Jennifer do this. Bo: I agree with you, Maggie, but you know how you Horton women are; once you get an idea in your heads, there’s no way its coming out. Maggie: Jennifer, please think before you do anything. Jennifer: I think we should all just get some rest now, and go see Hope in the morning. Bo: That’s a good idea. Bo and Jennifer put their jackets on. They kiss Maggie goodbye, and leave. Maggie: Oh God, please help us. Stefano, EJ, and Nicole are in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Stefano: Now, back to Chad. I would appreciate it if you would welcome him. EJ: Father, I don’t have time to bond with a new brother. Stefano: Damn you! Damn both of you! I am sick and tired of your attitude! I let you live here, I let the snakes you call lovers live here, and this is the appreciation I get! Nicole: Who are you calling a snake? EJ: Fine, I will welcome Chad. I’ll throw him a party if you’d like. Stefano throws his hands in the air. Stefano: I’m done with you. I’m going to bed. Stefano leaves the living room. Nicole: That went well. Nicole pours herself a drink. Chad and Vivian are sitting in the Java Café. Chad: Was I there? How would I know who actually switched the babies? Vivian: It was a rhetorical question! How do you know for sure that this doctor actually switched the babies? Chad: I don’t know, why wouldn’t he? Vivian: Let’s just pretend for a minute that Dr. Cooker- Chad: Baker. Vivian: Whatever. Ok, lets pretend that Dr. Baker actually didn’t switch the babies. What if he wanted to cause a huge commotion for nothing? What if Sydney is actually your daughter? Chad: Now your grasping at straws. Vivian: It is a possibility, Chad. And I think you should look into it. Chad: Why are you so interested in this? Do you owe Stefano a favour or something? Vivian: In a way, yes. But I also want to see a father and son become close. Chad gets up. Chad: Have a nice night, Ms. Alamain. Chad leaves the Java Café. Daniel and Chloe are in their apartment. Chloe puts down the paternity test. Chloe: Daniel, please! Daniel: Tell me who it was! Chloe: It was nobody important! He doesn’t matter! Daniel: The hell he doesn’t! Chloe: Please, Daniel! You’re the father! We can do another paternity test in the morning! Daniel: Tell me who you slept with! Chloe: Daniel, please don’t do this! Daniel: You tell me now, or I will kick you out right now! Chloe: Ok, I’ll tell you. Chloe wipes her tears. Chloe: It was Philip. I slept with Philip. Daniel looks shocked. Daniel: That son of a bitch. Daniel puts on his jacket. Chloe: Daniel, please! Daniel leaves the apartment. Chloe starts crying harder. Rafe walks into his and Sami’s apartment. Sami is on the couch. Rafe: Hey. Sami: Hi. Rafe: Sami, I’m sorry about the way things have been lately. Sami: It’s not your fault. Rafe: I was just trying to make it better for you. Sami: The only way this will get better is if I get my kids back. Rafe: I’m trying- Sami: Just stop, Rafe. I can’t talk about this anymore. Rafe: I’m going to bed. Sami: Goodnight. Sami takes out her cell phone. She dials a number. Sami: Hey, can you meet me at the Java Café? EJ and Nicole are standing in Sydney’s room. Nicole: Wow. I could watch her sleep all night. EJ: She looks so peaceful. They leave the room. Nicole: I missed this. EJ: What? Nicole: Putting Sydney to bed. Watching her sleep a little, then going to bed with you. Well, the last part isn’t happening I guess, but you know what I mean. EJ: I do. I missed it too. Nicole: Well, goodnight, EJ. EJ: Goodnight. They both go to their separate rooms. Chloe is sitting on the couch in the apartment, crying. Philip walks in. Philip: I got your message. What’s wrong? He sits next to Chloe and hugs her. Chloe: Daniel knows! Philip: What? How? Chloe: Somebody left Parker’s paternity test with him. It says he isn’t the father! Philip looks shocked. Sami is standing outside the Java Café. Bo sees her, and walks up to her. Bo: What’s wrong? Sami: I can’t do this anymore, Uncle Bo. I need my kids back. Bo: Sami, I don’t know what we can do now. Sami: There has to be something! Bo: I’ve been trying to figure something out, Sami. But there’s nothing. Unless we get something to blackmail EJ with, then- Bo has a thought. Sami: What? Bo: EJ said he had the gun, right? Sami: Yes, as the gun with the video recording is enough to put me away. Bo: The video alone can’t do anything. Sami: Ok, so what are you getting at? Bo: I’m not promising anything, but if I can get a search warrant, I can turn the place upside down, and look for the gun. Sami: Oh my God! That would be great! Thank you so much! Bo: Don’t thank me yet. Sami: Were going to stop him! She hugs Bo. Around the corner, Vivian is watching, and listening. Vivian: I think I just found my golden ticket. She smiles.

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.

Hope is sitting on the bed in the infirmary, as Carly walks in. Hope: What are you doing here? Carly: Bo, Jennifer and I came up with a plan to figure out what’s going on in here. Hope: Carly, I just found something out. Carly: What? Hope: Every single woman that has died had their organs harvested. Carly: Do you think- Hope: Yes. This isn’t right, Carly. We need to stop this. Carly: Ok, I’ll talk to Ben and the warden, and tell them that you need to go to a hospital right now. Carly opens the door to leave the room. Hope: Carly- Carly turns around. Hope: Thank you. Carly smiles at her. Sami and Carrie are sitting in the Java café. Sami: How are you feeling? Carrie: A lot better; don’t worry. Sami: What the hell is going on with Austin? I called him so many times. Carrie, is something wrong between you two? Tears start to form in Carrie’s eyes. Carrie: It’s been like this for so long, Sami. Sami: Like what? Carrie: When Will left us, I was talking to Austin about having kids, but he said he wasn’t sure if he ever wants any. Sami: And that is keeping you guys apart? Carrie: Yes. Then one night, he surprised me, and apologized, and we had dinner, and we went home, and made love. And then I brought up having kids again, and we went back to how we were. Sami: Where the hell is he? Carrie: He’s either busy with business, or out of town on business. He called me yesterday, and said that he won’t be able to come to Salem, because he’s so busy. Sami: I can’t believe this. Will is sitting outside the Pub. He remembers Chad kissing him. He shakes his head. Chad comes out of the Pub, and sees Will. Chad: Will- Will: Chad, please. Chad: I just want to talk. Chad sits down, beside Will. Chad: It’s not fair to Gabi. Will: What are you talking about? Chad: You don’t feel the same way she feels about you. Will: You have no idea what I’m feeling, Chad. And even if that’s how I did feel, what about you and Mia? Chad: Were not the same, Will. Will: What the hell are you talking about? Chad: Want me to put it bluntly? I’m bi, your not. Will looks at him in disbelief. Stefano is looking through some papers in the living room of the DiMera mansion. EJ comes in the room. Stefano: Tell me something, Elvis. Why are their a bunch of luggage’s in my foyer? EJ: Nicole’s moving back in. Stefano turns, to look at him. Stefano: What do you mean she’s moving in here? EJ: The kids need a mother. Samantha isn’t capable of it, so I’ve decided Nicole is. Stefano: Are you insane? That woman has deceived you! Why wouldn’t she do it again? EJ gets angry. EJ: And you haven’t deceived me! You kept her secrete! You knew all about it, but you didn’t say a word! Stefano: It was too late by the time I found out! EJ: Whatever. Nicole’s moving back in. Stefano laughs. Stefano: I love how everyone makes decisions without talking to me! Nicole is moving in, Katherine decides to keep the secrete of my son from me. What an ungrateful bunch! EJ: You really wanted to know about Chad anyway? Stefano: Of course I did! He’s my son. EJ starts pouring himself a drink. Hope is in a room at the hospital. Bo and Jennifer walk in. Jennifer runs to hug her. Jennifer: Oh my God! I’ve missed you so much! Hope: I’ve missed you guys too. Bo: How are you doing? Hope: I’m good. Bo: Carly told me what you found out at the infirmary. Jennifer: I can’t believe that! It’s disgusting. Hope: We need to stop them. Carly comes into the room. Carly: Jennifer, you need to get out. The warden is coming, and she can’t recognize you when you get to the prison. Hope: Wait, what do you mean when she gets to the prison? Jennifer: We’ll explain later. Jennifer kisses Hope on the cheek, and leaves the room. Carly: Ok, so I faked some test results, and that will be able to keep you in here for a few days. Hope: Thank you so much. Sami is at the Java Café, ordering a drink. She looks to the side, and sees Nicole. Sami: Nicole. Nicole turns. Nicole: Sami, please- Sami: I just want to say something. Tears start forming in Sami’s eyes. Sami: How could you do this? How could you take two children away from their mother. Epically after everything I went through with Grace and Sydney and the kidnapping! Nicole: Sami, I gave you a chance. But the second I turned around you and Rafe blew it! Sami walks out of the Java Café. Carrie: I thought you were getting another coffee. Sami: I changed my mind. So, we should get started on Christmas shopping. Carrie: Your right. Will and Chad are sitting on the bench outside the Pub. Will: Chad, this conversation is over. Will gets up. Chad: Will, come on. Will leaves. Bo, Carly, and Hope are in Hope’s hospital room. Jane walks in. Jane: I heard about Hope’s tests. Looks like your staying here a while. Hope: Think I’m still lying, warden? Jane looks around. Jane: This is an interesting trio. She looks at Carly. Jane: If I understand correctly, you’re the commissioner’s new girlfriend. Carly: I don’t think that’s any of your business. Hope doesn’t need any added stress, so I advise you to leave. Jane smiles. Jane: I don’t know what you three are cooking up, but just know it isn’t going to work. There will be a guard posted outside. I’ll be back tomorrow to see how your doing Hope. Take care. Jane leaves the hospital room. Hope: She knows were onto her. Carly: That’s fine. It won’t be long now until we expose them. Stefano is in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Chad walks in. Stefano: Chad! It’s good to see you! Chad: Why did you call me here? Stefano: I wanted to talk. Look, I know I came on strong, but I’d like to build a relationship with you. Chad takes off his jacket. Chad: Why? Stefano: Family is important. Now, I’m not saying- Nicole walks into the living room. Chad: What is she doing here? Nicole: I live here. Got a problem? Chad: Oh, so you let her back in? She’s part of the reason I didn’t get to know my daughter. Chad picks up his jacket. Stefano: Chad, wait, please. Chad leaves. Stefano stares at Nicole. Stefano: What the hell is wrong with you? Jane is sitting in her office, on the phone. Jane: Yes, no visitors. Starting tomorrow, I don’t want anybody except the hospital staff in Hope Brady’s room. Jane hangs up. Jane: I need to stop her.

Hope is lying on the bed in her jail cell. Hope: I need to get out of here. Hope goes to the bars. Hope: Guard! Help me! The guard comes over. Guard: What’s going on? Hope: There’s a really sharp pain in my stomach. It really hurts. Hope bends over, and holds her stomach. The guard opens the cell. Guard: I’ll take you to the infirmary. Hope: Thank you. They leave the cell. Victor and Kate are in the living room of the Kirikas mansion. Kate: What are we going to do about Vivian? Victor: Don’t worry about her. In the meantime, you could move in. That will really piss off Stefano. Kate: As great as that sounds, I don’t really feel like sharing this house with Nicole. Victor: You don’t have to worry about that either! Nicole’s moved out! Kate: Oh. Did Brady finally smarten up? Victor: I don’t know why they broke up; I don’t really care. I’m just happy she is out of here. Vivian and Gus are sitting in the Brady Pub. Vivian: So, I have a plan. Gus: How many times have I heard that before? Vivian: Shut up, and listen! Stefano has a new son. Gus: A new son! How old is Stefano! Vivian: No, not a new son. He’s about 20! Stefano just found out he is his father. Gus: So how is he going to help us with anything? Vivian: If you would stop asking questions and listen to me you would find out! Gus: Ok madam, go on. Vivian: Ok, so Stefano is reaching out to this Chad boy, but Chad is pushing Stefano away, and wants nothing to do with his family. Gus: So, what are you going to do? Vivian: I’m going to figure out a way to bring Chad and Stefano close, and then that will be my golden ticket! Vivian smiles. Bo and Jennifer are sitting in the Pub. Jennifer: Anything new? Bo: Carly talked to Ben about getting some shifts in the infirmary. Jennifer: What happened? Bo: Carly said he was acting very nervous when she brought it up, but then said he would put in a good word yet, but Carly still isn’t sure. Jennifer: Maybe it was a bad idea to bring it up to him. Bo: Because he might inform whoever else is part of it. Jennifer: Whoever else! We know for sure it’s that damn warden! She put Hope in solitary, because she knew Hope was figuring out too much. Bo: Ok, we don’t know that for sure. In the meantime, stay away from Ben. We can’t have him figuring out anything. Jennifer: Ok. Hope is sitting down in the infirmary, holding her stomach, pretending to be in pain. Lee comes in the room. Lee: Oh, God. You have got to be kidding me. Hope: Lee, I’m really sick. It hurts a lot. Lee gets on the phone. Hope: What are you doing! Lee(on the phone): Ya, come down to the infirmary. We have a little problem. She hangs up the phone. Lee: What’s the problem, Hope? Hope: There’s a really sharp pain in my stomach. It hurts so much, and it won’t stop. Who did you call? Lee: You’ll see. Hope: Please help me! Victor and Kate are standing in the living room of the Kirikas mansion. Kate: And how do you think it would look to Maggie, if I moved back in? Victor: Maggie knows were friends, and were close because of Philip. Besides, hse probably won’t care anyway. Kate: Wow Victor, I’ve never seen this before. Victor: What? Kate: You, sad, vulnerable. Victor: I’m not sad or vulnerable! Kate: What’s the problem? Victor: She told me to stay away from her. Kate: Well, how did you think she’d react when she found out you left a woman in a coffin? Victor: It was for her own good! Kate: It doesn’t matter. Maggie Horton isn’t that type of person; which is why you two are a good match. Victor looks at her, surprised. Vivian and Gus are sitting at a table in the Pub. Gus: How do you plan to get Chad to accept Stefano? Vivian: I’ll explain to him how family is important, and how he will regret it when he’s older. You know, stuff like that. Gus: I think it’s a long shot madam. Vivian: Well, it’s the only shot I have at getting Stefano on my side! Gus: Maybe you should think of another way. Vivian: There is no other way! Hope is sitting on the bed in the infirmary. Jane and Lee walk in. Jane: What’s the problem, Hope? Hope: I need a doctor! I’m in so much pain! Jane: I’ll have a doctor come examine you. Hope: No. I want to go to University Hospital. Jane laughs. Jane: Why should you receive special treatment? Hope: I want to see a real doctor. Jane: Oh, he is a real doctor. He actually works at University! Hope looks surprised. Jane: What’s wrong? Am I ruining your plan? Hope: What are you talking about? Jane: You want to get to University so you can try and escape. Guess what; it’s not happening. Hope: I don’t have a plan! I’m sick, and I want to go to a real hospital! Jane: The doctor will be here shortly. Jane leaves the room. Hope gets up, and looks through the papers on the table. Bo and Jennifer are sitting in the Pub. Bo: Jen, I don’t think it’s the best idea for you to go in the prison. Jennifer: Why not? Bo: Ben is working there. He will recognize you. Jennifer: I’ll stay away from him. Bo: How are you going to do that? If your working in the infirmary, he is bound to show up. Jennifer: Bo, I need to get in there. It’s the only way to find out what’s going on in there. Bo: Carly will be in there, Jennifer. Jennifer: It’s not enough. Bo, let me do this. It’s the only way of saving Hope. Stefano is in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Vivian walks in. Stefano: I thought I told you to do something for me, and I would consider helping you. Vivian: Oh, but I am doing something for you. I’m going to help you win your son over. Stefano looks surprised. Stefano: What son are you talking about? Vivian: Chad. Stefano: How do you know? Vivian: Don’t worry about that. Now I am going to get him to try and open up to you; don’t you worry. Stefano: Vivian, stay out of my personal business. Vivian: Stefano! Is this not what you want? For your son to accept you into his life? Stefano: If you can do that, then I will help you. Now get out, your annoying me. Vivian: You’ll thank me later. Vivian smiles, and leaves the mansion. Victor and Kate are in the living room of the Kirikas mansion. Victor: I’m a little surprised that you would say that, Kate. Kate: Well, it’s true. Maggie brings out a side of you that anybody rarely sees. And I can see you light up whenever you talk about her. Victor: I don’t think that’s enough, Kate. Kate: I’ll talk to her. Victor: What makes you think she will listen to you? You left Vivian in that coffin. Kate: Victor, don’t worry about it. Leave it to me. Kate leaves the mansion. Hope is in the infirmary. She looks through the papers on the desk, and sees that another patient died. She continues reading, and sees that her organs were harvested. Hope: Hold on a minute. She goes through the filing cabinet, and looks up April’s file. She sees that April’s organs were harvested also. She looks through a few more files, and sees that every woman who died had their organs harvested. She closes the cabinet, and goes back on the bed. Ben comes in the room. Ben: Hello, Hope. I’m Dr. Walters. Hope: Hi. Ben: So, what seems to be the problem? Hope: I’m having a sharp pain in my stomach. I don’t want to be here. I need to go to a real hospital. Ben: Hope, there is no difference if I examine you here, or in a hospital. Hope: I don’t care, I want to go to a hospital! Ben: I don’t have the authority to do that. I’m going to go talk to the warden about bringing you to the hospital. There’s another doctor here that can check you out. Ben leaves, and another doctor comes in. Hope: Oh my God. What are you doing here?

Philip walks into the Java Café. He sees Chloe sitting at a table, with Parker in a stroller. He goes up to Chloe. Philip: Hey. Chloe: Hey! They hug. Philip: How’s the little guy? Chloe: He is doing great! Sit with us. Philip: Ok. I’m going to get a coffee, you want anything? Chloe: No, I have mine. Philip: Ok, I’ll be right back. Philip goes to order his coffee. Melanie is at the Nurses Station at the hospital. Nathan comes, and is looking through a binder. Melanie: Hey. Nathan: How’s it going? Melanie: Good. What about you? Nathan: Good. Nathan continues looking through the binder. Melanie: Nathan, can I talk to you. Nathan: Of course. Melanie: I miss us being friends. I hate this awkwardness. Nathan: Well, it’s going to be awkward. Look, I have a few patients to see. Nathan walks away. Will is in the change room at the gym. He is wearing only a towel, and Chad walks in. They seem a bit awkward. Chad: Hey. Will: Hey Chad. Chad: Done your workout? Will: Yup. Chad: Will, can we stop beating around the bush. Will pretends to be confused. Will: What are you talking about? Chad: You know what I’m talking about. Chad flashes back to him and Will on the pier, his hand on Will’s arm, and moving closer. Will: Chad, whatever it is your feeling, I’m not. Chad: Will, I can see it; I know you feel it too. Chad moves closer. Will looks up at him. Chad kisses Will. Carly and Ben are standing at the nurses station in the hospital. Ben: What’s wrong, Carly? Carly: Just getting tired of the same thing everyday. Ben: You don’t like being a doctor anymore? Carly: No, I love being a doctor. I just want to try different things. Like your doing, with the prison. Ben: Oh, well it is a bit different there. Carly: Oh. So what kind of cases do you get? Ben starts to look nervous. Ben: Mostly surgeries. Carly: Minor ones? Ben: Mostly. Carly looks at his binder, and sees that his patient received a kidney transplant. She begins to piece things together. Carly: So, do you think I could get a couple shifts there? Ben looks nervous. Philip and Chloe are sitting in the Java Café. Chloe: So, how’s Melanie doing? Philip: She’s doing good. Chloe: Thinking about having kids yet? Philip: Yup I’m thinking about it. I’m a little scared though. Chloe: Why? Philip: After everything that happened with Claire, and Pocket, I don’t know if I’m ready yet. Chloe: Does Melanie want kids now? Philip: I don’t think so. I think she just wants to know that it is going to happen. And I don’t know if I can promise her that. Chloe: Then tell her that. It’s going to hurt her more later. Just tell her the truth. It’s the best option. Philip: Not in all cases though. Chloe: I know. If we told them about us, everything would be so different. They would have left us, and it would have all been for nothing, since Daniel is the father. Philip: Your right. Chloe: Thank God. We were so close to blowing our lives apart. Chad and Will are in the change room of the gym, kissing. Will quickly backs away. Will: What are you doing! Chad: Will, I know you feel the same. Will: I don’t Chad! Will gets dressed fast, and leaves the change room. Chad looks upset. Nathan and Stephanie are on the pier. Stephanie has a folder in her hands, with Parker’s test results. Nathan: What’s in the folder? Stephanie: Just some work stuff. So, what are we doing tonight? Nathan: I was thinking we can order in, watch a movie, or do something else. He smiles. Stephanie: I like the sound of something else. They kiss. Nathan has a flashback of kissing Melanie. Nathan: Well, I need to get to my grandma’s. I have to help her with a few things. Stephanie: Ok, I’ll call you later. They kiss, and Nathan leaves. Stephanie looks at the folder in her hands. Stephanie: This folder will ruin my life. Ben and Carly are standing at the nurses station. Carly: Is everything ok? Ben: Ya, sorry, I was just thinking of something else. Carly: So, you think I could get a few shifts? Ben: I’ll put in a good word for you. Carly: Thanks. I have to go see a patient. I’ll see you later. Carly leaves the nurses station. Ben takes out his phone, and dials a number. Jane: Hello. Ben: Jane, it’s me. We have a problem. Carly is around the corner, on her phone. Carly: Bo, something is defiantly going on. When I asked him about getting some shifts there, he was very nervous about it. Bo: You think he will get you in there? Carly: I’m not too sure yet. I’ll call you later. Carly hangs up. Will is on the pier. He remembers Chad kissing him. Gabi comes behind him. Gabi: Hey! Will turns around. He smiles. Will: Hey. He kisses her. Will: You don’t work tonight, do you? Gabi: No, thank God. We should go see a movie. Will: Ya, that sounds good. Gabi: Ok, I’m going to go home and get ready. Will: Ok, I’ll pick you up in an hour. Gabi: Sounds good. They kiss, and Gabi leaves. Chad sees them. He walks up to Will. Chad: Will, do you think it’s fair to her? Will: Chad, I already told you I don’t feel anything for you! Chad: That’s not what I thought when we were in the change room. Will: Chad, stop. Chad: No, not until you admit it. Will: Chad, I was confused about things! But now I know what I want. I know what’s right. Will leaves the pier.

Bo is sitting at his desk in the police station. He dials a number. Jane: Hello. Bo: Warden, I'd like to see Hope. Jane: Listen, I already told you Hope is in solitary. There is nothing I could do. Bo: Are you being serious right now? Jane: Yes. Now I have a lot of work to do. You have a nice day. Jane hands up, and Bo slams the phone down. Bo: Damn it! Roman walks in. Roman: Everything ok? Bo: No, it isn't! Hope is still is solitary. Roman: I still find it hard to believe that Hope would break the rules. Bo: Exactly! She wouldn't do it unless it was an absolute emergency. We need to send someone in there. To find out what’s going on in there. Jennifer is standing at the door. Jennifer: You can send me in. Will is sitting beside Carrie's bed in the hospital. Will: How are you feeling? Carrie: Will, I'm fine. I promise. I'm sorry I upset you before, but I think we have to talk about it. Will: Aunt Carrie- Amelia comes in. Amelia: Your test results came back. Carrie: What did they say? Amelia: The reason you were dizzy, and almost passed out was because your blood pressure was high. Carrie: Is that normal? Amelia: It's not unheard of, but if this persists, then it is not good. Carrie: This is serious? Amelia: It can be. I want to check your blood pressure again in a few hours, and see if it improved. Carrie: And if it doesn't? Amelia: Then I will have a few recommendations. Just rest now, and I will be back. Amelia leaves, and Carrie looks worried. Sami is sitting on the couch in her and Rafe's apartment. Rafe comes in. Rafe: Hey. He sits beside her, and kisses her. Sami: Have you found anything? Any way we can get our kids back. Rafe looks disappointed. Rafe: Not yet. I was thinking maybe tonight we can go out to dinner, get a break from everything. Sami: A break from everything? You just want me to forget that EJ has my kids? Rafe: I didn't say that- Sami gets up. Sami: I can't believe you would suggest going to dinner. Sami's phone rings. She answers it. Sami: Hello. Will: Mom, it's me. Sami: Hey. What's wrong you sound worried. Will: It's Aunt Carrie. I had to bring her to the hospital. Sami: Oh my God I'll be right there. Sami hangs up, and puts her jacket on. Rafe: What's wrong? Sami: My sister is in the hospital. Rafe gets up. Sami: Stay here, I want to go alone. Sami leaves the apartment. Bo, Jennifer, and Roman are sitting in Bo's office. Bo: Jen, that's a crazy idea. Jennifer: Come on Bo! You know it will work! Roman: I'm with Bo; I think it's too dangerous. Now, I gotta go. I'll talk to you guys later. Roman leaves. Jennifer: It's simple! You send me in as a doctor, and I act all shady, pretending I know what they are doing there, and I'll be wearing a wire- Bo: It's too dangerous! Don't you think that the warden will do all sorts of digging and find out who you are? Jennifer: I'll use Carly's name, and her information. Carly is standing at the door. Carly: Or why not send me in? Bo sits back in his chair, and holds his head. Carly closes the door and sits down. Carly: I'll get sent in as a doctor, Jennifer as a patient, and we'll see where it goes from there. Bo: This is crazy. Jennifer: It'll work. Will is sitting in the waiting room of the hospital. Chad sees him. Chad: Will, is everything ok? Will: I had to bring my aunt here. Chad: I hope everything's ok. Chad puts his hand on Will's arm. They look at each other, and Sami comes out of the elevator. Chad quickly moves his hand. Sami: Will, is she ok? What room is she in? Will: Come, I'll bring you. Will turns to Chad. Will: Thanks Chad. Will and Sami walk away, and Chad looks at Will. Rafe walks into the Cheatin' Heart and sits at the bar. He orders a drink. Adrienne sits next to him. Adrienne: Rough week? Rafe: You can say that. Adrienne: Oh, your Rafe, right? Sami's husband. Rafe: Ya, Adrienne, right? Adrienne: Yes. Rafe: So, what brings you here? Adrienne: Just thinking about some stuff. What about you? Rafe: Just feeling like this whole situation is pushing me and Sami away from each other. Adrienne: Oh, I heard about the kids. My God. I can't believe somebody can be that evil. Rafe: That's EJ. Adrienne: I wish you guys didn't have to go through this. I can't imagine being in that situation. Bo, Carly, and Jennifer are sitting in his office. Bo: You guys are serious about this, aren't you? Jennifer: Of course we are! If people are being killed for whatever reason, then we need to stop this! Bo: Ok, so then how is this going to work? Carly: We need to get Jenn in the prison. Jennifer: And around the same time, Carly will be transferred there, and I will suddenly get sick. Carly: And then the warden will let me in on whatever is going on there. Bo: If there is something going on, she's not just going to come right out and say it with your first patient. Jennifer: Bo's right. Carly: Then I need to start working there now. Bo: I know a way I could get Jennifer in there- Carly looks like she just realized something. Carly: Hold on a minute. I know someone who works as a doctor at the prison. Sami, Will and Roman, and Carrie are in Carrie's hospital room. Amelia comes in. Amelia: Ms.Reed, I have your test results. Carrie: It's ok, you can tell me in front of them. Amelia: Ok; I was very concerned about the high blood pressure before, but it seems to have gone down. Even though it has gone down, I am still concerned, and I want to see you again next week. Carrie: Ok, I'll make an appointment. Amelia: If you feel anything else, come back the minute you feel it. Carrie: Ok. Thank you so much. Amelia: Take care. Amelia leaves the room. Rafe and Adrienne are sitting at the bar. Adrienne: So, you said this is pushing you and Sami apart? Rafe: I try to do things, for example, I suggested that we go to dinner tonight, but she got mad at me. It's like we can't even smile, or she will think it will be betraying Johnny and Sydney. Adrienne: I understand where she's coming from. You just need to show her that your there for her, and comfort her. Rafe: I do that, but she still gets mad at me. I think she resents me for putting this all in motion. Adrienne: What do you mean? Rafe: If I didn't interrupt their wedding with the tape recording, Sami wouldn't have done what she's done, and she would be with her kids now. Adrienne looks confused. Bo, Jennifer and Carly are sitting in Bo's office. Jennifer: Who do you know that works in the prison? Carly: Dr.Walters. Jennifer: Ben? Carly: Yes. He works there every so often. I could tell him I need a change of scenery, and want to work with him. Jennifer: Wow, I would have never suspected him. Bo: Ok, we don't even know if this guy is involved. Carly: Even if he's not, it's a chance for me to get closer to the warden, and whatever is going on there. Jennifer: She's right, Bo. Bo: Ok, fine. You work on Dr. Walters, and I’ll work on getting Jenn in the prison. Will is on the pier, and looks into the water. Chad comes on to the pier. Chad: Will, how’s your aunt? Will: She’s good; they released her. Chad: That’s good. Chad puts his hand on Will’s arm. Chad: If you need anything just ask me. Will: Ok. Chad moves closer to Will, but Will backs away. Will: I need to go. Will walks off the pier.

Carly laughs. Carly: Me, Chloe, Nicole, and Victor all in one room? After Parker's baptism, you'll be throwing a funeral. Daniel: Oh, stop. Victor has mellowed. Carly laughs. Carly: Is that what you think? Daniel: Come on. Carly: Let me know when and where. Stefano and Vivian are sitting at a table in the Penthouse Grille. Stefano: Well, why did you want to meet? Vivian: Don't you find it interesting that both our spouses betrayed us both at the same time? Stefano: Dear God, is this why you called me here? Vivian: Yes! We need to figure out a way to get revenge, and it's better if we work as a team! Stefano: If I say no, will I wake up in a coffin tomorrow? Vivian: You never know, so you might as well say yes. Stefano laughs. Stefano: In all seriousness now, why should I help you? You went against Victor, how do I know you won't go against me? Vivian: I know better than to double cross Stefano DiMera. Stefano doesn't look impressed. He sees Chad standing at the bar. Stefano: I find it hard to believe you, Vivian. Now do something for me; help me in some way, and maybe I will consider it. Vivian: Stefano! But- Stefano: I have something I need to take care of. Have a lovely day. Stefano gets up, and Vivian throws her napkin on the table. Vivian: Damn it! EJ is in the living room of the DiMera mansion. Nicole walks in. EJ: So, you've made a decision. Nicole: Yes. EJ, I realize I may never get another chance to be a mother, and Brady has made it clear he doesn't want a family. EJ: So your choosing Sydney over Brady? Nicole: Yes. EJ: Have you told Brady? Nicole: Not yet. I will later today. EJ: Good. I'll have Mary set up a room for you. Nicole: Well, I'm going to go talk to Brady. Nicole leaves the living room. Carrie and Will are sitting at a table in the Pub. Carrie: So, are you and Gabi close? Will: Were getting there. Carrie: Have you been dealing with what was bothering you? Will: Yes, that problem's over. Carrie: What do you mean it's over? It doesn't just disappear, Will. Will: I really don't want to talk about this. Carrie: Will- Will: I forget something upstairs. Carrie: Will, please- Will gets up, and goes upstairs. Stephanie is at the nurses station of the hospital. She looks up Parker's tests. She looks confused, and prints them. She picks them up.

Chloe: Good, tired, but good. Stephanie: How's Parker? Chloe: He's good. A little colic though. Stephanie: Oh, well I'm sure he will get over it. Chloe: I hope it's soon. They laugh. Stephanie looks down at the papers in her hands, and is confused over what to do. Stefano and Chad are standing at the bar in the Penthouse Grille. Chad: What do you want? Stefano: Chad, I just want to talk. Chad: Ok, talk. Stefano: Maybe I came on a little strong. Chad laughs. Chad: A little? Stefano: Ok, maybe a lot. But you have to understand how important family is to me. Chad: What, are we supposed to have dinners together? Am I supposed to move in, and call you dad? Are we supposed to get each other Christmas presents. Stefano: I'm hoping in time we can become close. Chad: I don't know. I need to go now though. Chad leaves, and Vivian is shown, and was listening to the whole conversation. She looks intrigued. Will comes back downstairs of the Pub, and Carrie gets up. She looks confused, and starts to get dizzy. She almost falls over, and Will comes rushing over. Will: Aunt Carrie! Are you ok? Carrie: Ya, I think so. I was just a bit dizzy.

Nicole: Brady, this isn't working between us. Brady: What do you mean? I thought we were doing great. Nicole: Brady, we want different things. Nicole starts crying. Nicole: Brady, I never thought I would want to be a mother, but it happened. And loosing Sydney had left such a huge hole in me. And now I have the chance to be with her again. And I can't just give it away. Brady nods. Brady: I understand. Nicole smiles, and wipes a tear. Carrie is waiting in a hospital room. A doctor comes in. Doctor: Hi, I'm Dr. Amelia Sander. How are you feeling? Carrie: I'm better. I was just a bit dizzy. I'm sure it was nothing. Amelia: I hope so, but I would feel a lot better if I ran a few tests. Carrie: Ok, that's fine. Carrie looks nervous as Amelia leaves the room.

Nicole looks up, and smiles. EJ: Who let you in? Nicole: Mary...You said I would be allowed to visit. EJ: I did, did I? Nicole: EJ, these children need a mother. EJ: Yes, Nicole; a mother! Not a woman who comes every other day to sit and play with them! Nicole looks at him in disbelief. Nicole: Wow, this is about Sami isn't it! Sami is sitting in the Brady Pub. The Pub door opens, and Carrie Brady walks in. Sami gets up and hugs her. Sami: Carrie! It's so good to see you! Carrie: You too, Sami. Sami notices a bump in her stomach. Sami: Oh my God.

Vivian: I think I'll- Vivian stops talking, as she notices Maggie and Jennifer at another table. Vivian: Well, well, look who’s here. Gus: Madam, don't do anything. Vivian: Oh, Maggie's old news. It's about time I get started on those monsters who put me in that damn sarchoagous! Maggie and Jennifer are sitting at the table, looking at the menu. Maggie: Have you heard from Jack at all? Jennifer: I think I'm going to get pancakes, how about you? Maggie puts the menu down. Maggie: Honey, you can't ignore this. Jennifer: Ignoring it? He's left me no choice! He doesn't call, e-mail, send letters or anything! He has just forgotten that we exist! Maggie: What if he's in trouble? Jennifer: Please, Aunt Maggie. This is classic Jack, and I don't know why I ever thought he would change. Do you think he's thinking about the kids? How JJ is feeling about this? Or how about how Abby blames me for it? Maggie: What do you mean Abby's blaming you? Jennifer: Oh you know, it's all my fault, I wasn't paying attention to him, I was to busy with my own stuff. Maggie: When was the last time you talked to her? Jennifer: Last week. I asked her to come to Salem, to see her brother, her family, but she wouldn't hear me. Maggie: I'll call her. EJ and Nicole are in the DiMera mansion living room. EJ: Why are you bringing up Samantha? Nicole: Because, you say they need a mother, of course you would want nothing more than your obsession moving in here, and playing house with her! EJ looks at her, and laughs. Nicole: It's funny? EJ: Whatever, I was talking about you moving in, but if you think- Nicole: Moving in? EJ: Yes, these children need a mother, don't they? Nicole: I'd have to think about it.

Vivian: Good. I already have my plan, all I need now is to put it in place. Gus: What's the first step? Vivian: Getting in touch with my partner. Maggie and Jennifer are sitting at their table.

Vivian: Oh, stop Nicole. I don't blame you. Nicole looks confused. Nicole: What game are you trying to play, Vivian? Vivian: No game. I know what it's like to want a man. To do anything for a man. To be used by a man. Nicole: I wasn't used by Brady. Vivian: Really? Funny how he wanted nothing to do with you, and then as soon as you find out about me and my premature burial, he suddenly wants you. Oh, foolish Nicole. I thought you were smarter than that. Nicole: Go away. Vivian: Ok, but you know I'm right Nicole. Vivian smiles, and walks away. Nicole starts to think about EJ's offer. Carrie walks into her hotel room, and checks her phone.
