    Downtown Salem, Titian

    Victor, who has just finished up a meeting with shareholders walks out the main conference room and sees Vivian, waiting for him with a newspaper.
    Victor
    "What is it this time Vivian?"
    Vivian smiles, and turns the front headlines so Victor can read. In bold and large print, it reads "Stefano Dimera Dead!!..Again.! Victor smiles "That will just make things easier for me. My arch-rival dead. There is a God."
    Vivian
    "Now that you got that out the way, how about you help me get the Dimera Millions" She says as she walks over toward him and plants a kiss on him. He blocks the kiss
    "Have you gone mad old woman? What in the hell makes you think I am going to help you get Stefano's millions. He has a lot of family. I am sure the Phoenix didn't leave you a dime."
    Vivian
    "I wouldn't be so sure. I'm a woman on a mission and if you don't help me, you'll be sorry."
    Victor, chuckling
    "Your amusing. A woman is isn't working with a full deck telling me she's going to get me. You're a nutcase Vivian. You stole Kate's embryo, buried Carly alive, helped crazy Kirsten. I don't want to have anything to do with the likes of you. Now get the hell out my office before I throw you out. And this time Don't come back!"
    Vivian
    "You sorry son of a Bitch. You'll pay for this. And to think I once loved you. Go get some Viagra you dirty bastard." And with that Vivian leaves. Victor sits behind his desk and smiles, as he thinks of Stefano being dead. "I hope he really dead this time."

    Forrest Alamain, looking sharp in his pinstripe suit walks into The Penthouse Grille and looks around to see if he sees his date.
    "Looking for me?" He hears a woman voice rom behind. He turns around and smiles when he sees Billie. He hugs her and she returns it as well
    Forrest
    "I'm glad you showed up."
    Billie
    "I don't know why I did after you cuckoo Aunt insulted my mother."
    Forrest
    "Again I apologize about that. Vivian didn't take her medication that night."
    Billie smiles at Forrest sarcasm. They are escorted to there seats as they enjoy a romantic evening together.



    Marlena, Hope, Lexie, and Celeste all meet up at Chez Rouge for a girls night out and to celebrate Lexie's freedom. Maggie greets them and escorts them to the bar.
    Marlena
    "Oh Lexie, I am so happy for you." She says giving her a good friend a hug.
    Lexie
    "Thank you Marlena. That means a lot to me. And I wanted to say I am sorry about Roman."
    Marlena
    "Oh Thank you. I believe in my heart he will awaken from this catatonic state. He has too. He was recently transported to a sanitarium out of Salem."
    Celeste
    "He will darling. I can see it in my cards."
    Marlena
    "Thank you Celeste. That really gives me something to hold on too." Everyone notices Hope is quiet already half way gone with her beer. Marlena remembers Bo coming into her office and asking her to talk to Hope about her recent erratic behavior. Just as Marlena is about to ask Hope something, Maggie walks back over to them and tells them Stefano is dead. All four women are shocked.
    Hope
    "Serves that evil Bastard right."
    Lexie
    "Excuse me. He is still my father Hope."
    Hope
    "What kind of father lies to their children. Stefano is scum and I am so glad that heartless bastard is dead. Good riddance. I pray it's for good this time" Lexie, Marlena and Celeste are stunned at Hope's vicious words.
    Lexie
    "Hope, with all do respect you are talking about my father."
    Hope
    "Don't tell me your trying to defend him. Ask yourself Lexie, what has Stefano ever done for you. Besides lie to you and play games with your life, tell me one damn good thing he has done for you."Lexie is at a loss for words. Marlena tries to intervene "Hope, I think you have had enough to drink." Hope looks at Marlena and says
    "Who are you, my mother?" Hope grabs her beer and grabs a table by herself by the window.
    Marlena and Celeste both look at each other
    Marlena
    "Hope is certainly a different person tonight."
    Lexie
    "Yes she is. Something is very off about her. I have never known Hope to be so blunt and ill-mannered."
    Celeste
    "Hope is going through a lot of pain darlings. She fight some kind of inner demon. She's fighting for her soul."
    Marlena
    "Bo did come to me earlier and expressed she has been acting very erratic." They all watch Hope as she now sips her red wine relentlessly and wonder what is driving Hope to behave this way.


    As Megan Hathaway is reading her father's obituary, she walks past Chez Rouge and Hope sitting in the window drinking catches her eye
    "Well, Well, well, what do we got here. The honorable and never do wrong Hope Williams Brady. Drinking her sorrows away." Megan watches Hope drink glass after glass. "I'd never thought I'd see the day when the high and mighty have sunken so low. My old enemy, getting drunk like's there's no tomorrow. Some one has to know about this." Megan pulls out her cell phone to kick a devious plot into action against Hope


    Tony walks into the Dimera Mansion. A look of sadness appears on his face as he calls out for Anna. He hear's silence in the old mansion. He then hears what seems like a woman crying upstairs. He walks up the stair case and walks towards the room the cries are coming from. He opens the door and sees Kirsten, balled up on the bed.
    Tony
    "I didn't think you would take Stefano's death this hard." He says walking towards her. Kirsten sits up and looks at him with fear in her eyes
    Kirsten
    "Don't you come any closer! Stay away from me!!"
    Tony frowns, not knowing why Kirsten is acting this way toward him
    "Kirsten, what's the matter? You act like I did something to you?"
    Kirsten jumps up from the bed and pulls a gun out on Tony.
    "You come one step closer and I'll kill you!!"

    Victor, after a hard days work downstairs on the Titian floors, walks inside the Pent House Grille. He walks over to the bar and sees Celeste. He grabs a seat next to her and orders a scotch.

    Victor
    "Celeste, It's been a while. How are you?"
    Celeste, after sipping on her white wine
    "I am wonderful. The devil is dead."
    Victor smiles
    "I can drink to that."
    Celeste
    "I can too Darling" They toast to Stefano's death
    Celeste
    "That means one less enemy for you."
    Victor
    "Indeed it does. I wonder who's going to inherit the Dimera Dynasty."
    Celeste
    "With any luck and hope, I hope it's me. I have been by that's man side for years and he never gave me nothing."
    Victor
    "I didn't know you wanted his millions. I've never known you to be into greed."
    Celeste
    "It's not about greed darling. It's about getting what is owed to me. Stefano owes me his life. Me and Alexandria. I think it's time I collect what was owed to me."
    Victor
    "I would like to help you get what you deserve Celeste."
    Celeste, looking at the old tycoon
    "You're offering me help? It seems odd, you and I teaming up. Who would have guessed it."
    Victor
    "It's a new year Celeste. It's time for new beginnings. To our quest to get Stefano's millions" He says as he holds up his scotch glass. They toast to millions. As they toast Vivian walks in and is stunned to see her ex husband and Celeste drinking together. "What the hell does that gypsy got that I don't? Jungle Fever?" Vivian says to herself

    Episode 214, Jungle Fever
    Written by: ML C.
    Story Editor: Tara Smith

    As Vivian watches her potential new rival dine with Victor, she notices her nephew Forrest dancing with Billie "For the Love of God, I'm going to be sick. What is this new year and new couples. This is not a good sign for 2008"
    Billie and Forrest are dancing to a smooth Jazz tune. They smile at each other as they gaze into each others eyes
    Billie
    "For such a big hunky man, you sure light on your feet."
    Forrest
    "Oh am I? Your not so bad yourself."
    Billie
    "I haven't felt this good in a long time. Thank you Forrest."
    Forrest
    "No thank you for giving me the opportunity. I enjoy your company."
    Billie
    "I suppose I enjoy yours too." They chuckle at her last comment as he pulls her closer to him and she lays her head against his chest and closes her eyes, and thinking "Could this be the start of something new." Her thoughts are interrupted when Vivian walks over to them
    Vivian
    "What in the hell is going on here? My nephew dancing with the enemies daughter."
    Forrest
    "Please Viv, don't start you're antics or you will be sorry."
    Vivian
    "My own family threatening me. Thanks a lot Billie for turning my family against me."
    Forrest
    "You did that all by yourself. I promise you Vivian, by the time I am done with you, you won't have a pot to piss in."
    Vivian
    "We'll see. No nephew of mine will disrespect me nor shall he date the hor of Salem. First Bo, then Steve and Nick Fallon. Where do you get the nerve, oh wait, that's right Kate Roberts, the orginal Hor of Salem is your mother, how could I forget." Billie slaps Vivian across the face.
    Forrest
    "Good job. You deserve that you miserable hag. Stay the hell away from us."
    Vivian
    "You'll be sorry. The both of you." She hollers at them as they leave the upscale restaurant. Vivian talks to herself "I swear I'll prove to this damn town that I am still a force to be reckon with." She leaves.


    The Horton House
    Julie takes out some fresh doughnuts from the pot of grease as her son David Banning sit's a t the Kitchen table quiet. Julie breaks the silence
    "I'm so glad your back home Davy. I've missed you so much."
    David
    "I've missed you and Salem too."
    Julie, as she sits down next to him
    "So tell me what brings you back?"
    David
    "Do I need a reason to see my mother and family?"
    Julie
    "Of course not. No reason at all. I know we didn't get a chance to really talk good on Christmas day with Hope's outburst."
    David
    "Yes, what is up with her? I've never seenher act like that before."
    Julie, thinking of when Hope confessed to her that she killed Gina
    "Hope has had one hell of a year. From grand ma Alice, to losing Shawn Douglas to.." She stops David looks at her
    David
    "To what? What else is Hope going through?"
    Julie
    "Look, just never mind. Hopefully Hope can find the help she needs before it's too late."
    David
    "Sure mom" He says with uncertainty as he think's his mother is hiding something from him about Hope.


    Meanwhile, outside of Chez Rouge, after watching Hope drink glass after glass of wine, Megan decides to make a call.
    "Hello? Salem Police?. Yes I am a good Samaritan and I wanted to tell officer Bo Brady that his wife is getting totally wasted at Chez Rouge….She's sloppy drunk. Tell Bo to come get his sloppy face before she gets hurt." Megan hangs up snickering. "Oh what the hell" She says as she calls the Salem Police Dept again. This time Police Commissioner Abe Carver answers the phone
    Megan, this time disguising her voice to sound like a man
    "Hope Williams Brady is sloppy drunk. Tell Bo to get his drunken wife off the streets. The Brady's should be ashamed of themselves."
    Abe
    "Who is this?"
    Megan
    "Hope's wasted. Get this low life off the streets." Megan hangs up, snickering once more. She turns around and is shocked and a bit nervous as she sees Hope standing right in front of her
    Megan
    "Hope, my God, I didn't hear you sneak up on me."
    Hope out of no where decks Megan in the jaw and walks away. Megan loses her balance and falls to the ground "You self righteous Bitch. I'm going to press charges on you." She says wiping blood from her mouth regaining her balance.




    Downtown Salem, Anna Dimera Designs
    Jan is sitting in a barber chair as Anna is applying make up and giving her a make over. Anna slyly clips a few strands of Jan's hair and puts them into a zip lock bag. Anna smiles as she remembers what Marlena told her what was needed for DNA testing." Marlena said hair would do but saliva would be better. So I got to get in Jan's mouth. I don't know how I am going to pull this off." Anna pulls out a q-tip from a drawer


    As


    Nicole, wearing huge black sunglasses sits on a bench, with a newspaper in front of her face, slowly eases it to the left she can spy on Anna and Jan's encounter. "I know what your up to Anna. You want to find Tony and Marlena's missing child. A missing Dimera heir. And now with Stefano gone, I can help you Anna, I can help you find out what you really want to know." She smiles as she continues to stalk Anna, watching her every move." Somehow, I have got to get my hair samples and-"She pauses her thought as she sees Anna walking towards Jan's mouth with a q-tip. She continues her thought "And what ever else kind of DNA she's going to get"
    Back inside the shop, As Lucas walks in, Jan looks at Anna while she is getting closer to her mouth, "Anna, what are you doing?"
    Anna
    "Don't move, you got something on your lip." Anna inserts the q-tip inside Jan's mouth and rubs it around to get plenty of saliva. Jan pushes Anna away.
    Jan
    "Crazy Bitch. What in the hell do you think your doing?"
    Lucas, walking over to them
    "What's going on?"
    Anna, turning around to put the q-tip in a different zip lock bag
    "I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me. Please forgive me. I am not feeling so well."
    Lucas
    "Come on Jan, I think it's time for you to leave."
    Jan
    "I'll say. " She spins Anna around. "Stay the hell away from me. I don't need a weirdo's like you stressing me out during my pregnancy." Jan and Lucas walks out the shop. Anna breathes a sigh of relief as she finally has got what she was out to get for. Some of Jan's DNA, hair samples and a swab of the mouth, Anna is sure she is about to find out if Jan really is indeed the possible heir to the Dimera Dynasty, the long lost child Of Marlena and Tony, . Anna closes up her shop and leaves.
    Nicole puts her paper down and continues to stalk Anna.


    University Hospital
    Marlenai walks into John's room. She sits down next to him. Marlena takes his hand and holds it. "My dear sweet John. I got some good news for you baby. Stefano is dead."
    Marlena
    "I need you to open your eyes sweetie. Come back to me. We can live happily ever after. The evil is gone from our lives forever. You don't have to battle him no more. We can live in peace and breath a sigh of relief."

    Anna hesitates before she opens the door to the Dimera Mansion. She wonders who is she going to get when she walks inside, Tony, or his alt personality Vince.
    Nicole, not letting her prey out of sight, is camped out around some bushes where no one can see her. She wonders why Anna is not going in. "Something is very off." Nicole thinks to herself.
    Anna opens the door and she is stunned to see Kristen, holding Tony at gun point.
    Kristen, crying hysterically
    "Stay away from me you sick bastard.!"
    Tony
    "Kristen, please let's talk about this. You act like I did something to you." Tony begins to walk towards her to retrieve the gun
    Anna
    "Tony..Kristen what is going on?!"
    Kristen
    "I'm going to shoot!" Tony tries to grab the gun from Kristen and the two tussle. The gun goes off and Anna is shot in the stomach. She collapses to the ground………

    Episode#215: Anna’s shooting

    -Lucas goes to Maggie’s house, and knocks on the door. Maggie answers with a smile, and asks Lucas what brings him to her house. Lucas says he wanted to come visit since he didn’t get to go to the Horton House on Christmas, and Maggie says they all missed him. Lucas asks how it was and Maggie says it was very hard without Alice, but Mike and David Banning came home so that helped. She asks how his was, and he says he went out on a date. Maggie gasps and with a laugh asks:

    Maggie: Lucas, that’s fantastic! With who?!
    Lucas: Jan Spears.
    Maggie: Lucas…please no…tell me this is a joke…

    -Belle is at Salem Place, getting some clothes for Claire. Once she is done she turns with a ton of shopping bags in her hand, and she mutters to herself shopping is always good therapy for all the drama that has been going on lately. She keeps thinking of her father going catatonic, Gina dying, and everything else occurring in Salem, but she thinks on it so much she doesn’t see where she is going and bumps into someone. As she drops her shopping bags she says:

    Belle: Oh I’m sorry-wait are you Nicholas Alamain?
    Nicholas: Why, yes, I am. Belle Black, I presume?

    -Hope tells Megan if she went to the police she’d just be going straight to jail afterwards because of the crimes she’s committed. Megan tells Hope that if she ever goes down, Hope will go right down with her. She smirks as she says once Hope drinks herself to her death, Bo will just come running back to her!

    -Kristen’s eyes widen and she whispers “No..no…what have I done now…” and slowly the gun falls from her hands as Tony rushes to Anna’s side, and says:

    Tony: Anna…oh my poor Anna…Kristen what have you done?!
    Kristen: Its nothing compared to what you did to me…

    Kristen rushes up the stairs in tears and shock as Tony dials 911 while cradling Anna in his arms and Nicole watches in shock from the bushes outside…

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Lucas says its not, and he actually likes her a little. Maggie exclaims “Lucas, have you lost your mind?! Jan Spears hurt your cousin so much over the years…first she had him pretend her child with Nicole Walker’s father was really his, and then she came back next year, stalked Shawn, and later held him captive in a cage, and once he escaped and lost his memory she got him into drinking, and caused him to crash Belle and Philip’s wedding, and then when Jan woke up from her coma in 2006, she impregnated herself with Shawn’s baby! Lucas then says:

    Lucas: That’s why I’m doing this…for her baby. I’ve realized that we are losing family members by the year, and I want this new one to come into the world safe and sound. I am wary of Jan, Aunt Maggie. But she doesn’t seem as evil as Victor or Stefano. I worry for that baby’s safety if she gives birth alone and takes care of it, so I need to be there since the rest of you guys are busy.
    Maggie: Lucas…that is so sweet of you…but I just don’t know, I fear for you…
    Lucas: I can take care of myself, trust me.

    -Belle says yes, yes it is, and Nicholas apologizes as he helps her get her bags from the ground, and she says she’s had worst things happen. Belle asks what a high society resident like him is doing at Salem Place, and he says he’s not high and mighty like his aunt and uncle, and he doesn’t like to hang out at all of those rich places, and Belle says her family was always the same way. Belle says she should get going, and Nicholas tells her it was nice to finally meet her, because he heard some about her father when they thought he was Forrest Alamain and when they thought he was adopted, even though all of that, even the adoption part, turned out to be fake. Belle thanks her, and says the same to him. After Belle leaves, Nicholas thinks to himself that some women may not be like Vivian always was during his childhood and adulthood…

    -Hope tells Megan that will never happen, because Megan has done much worse things than drink. Grabbing some boy and making it out to be that he was Bo’s son, trying to kill her in a hottub, not to mention help Stefano get those prisms…she is just a spoiled low life. Megan sees Bo off in a distance, and simply says:

    Megan: We’ll see who comes out on top this time, Hope.

    Megan turns and darts off, while Hope turns around to see Bo!

    -Tony tells Anna that an ambulance should be here soon, and she tells him to please not let her die as she moans in pain. Tony promises that he won’t, and then the ambulance arrives. The paramedics come in and get Anna onto a gurney, and Tony says that she was shot. The paramedics nod and walk back outside, and Tony gets into the ambulance with them as Nicole follows after it drives off…

    Episode#216: Nicole’s Plans

    -After Lucas leaves Maggie’s house, Maggie keeps worrying for him. She thinks to herself that Jan had better not hurt him, or Jan will have her to deal with this time. She hears a knock on the door, and sees Abe! She then asks:

    Maggie: Abe! What brings you here?
    Abe: I need advice.
    Maggie: On what?
    Abe: On whether I should pursue custody of Theo or not.

    -Vivian walks up to the grounds of the DiMera Mansion, and looks around. She says to herself it looks empty enough, and slowly begins to walk forward…and then heads around to the back of the mansion! She looks at the back door and tries to open it, but it is locked. She groans and then takes out a nightstick from her purse, and slams it right through the glass door! As the glass shatters, she reaches her hand inside the hole and unlocks the door, and then opens it, an enters the DiMera Mansion with an evil chuckle…

    -Bo walks over to Hope and asks her what the hell she thinks she is doing drinking herself to death, and she could have gone right back to the hospital like she did before Christmas! He says that something’s been wrong with her ever since they came back from Italy, and Hope says:

    Hope: Bo, listen, I’m fine. Its just Alice’s death is still affecting me and the anniversary of Shawn’s death got to me…I am sorry…but please stop being so worried.
    Bo: You’ve never been like this before, Fancy Face. And I understand that, but you haven’t been like this before and at first we were trying to get through their deaths together, but after we came back home you keep running off to drink. I keep feeling like something’s going on that your not telling me.

    -Tony is sitting nervously at the hospital while Anna undergoes surgery, and he flashes back to when Kristen shot her earlier at the DiMera Mansion. He wonders what he did to Kristen to make her act so insane, and then thinks to himself he just hopes Anna comes out alright. He then thinks to himself:

    Tony: We’ve already been through so much…what more can happen to us?
    Vince: Oh, you’d be surprised.
    Tony: Wait…what the hell…who are you?!
    Vince: I’m your alternate personality, Tony. I am Vince DiMera.

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Nicole lurks around University Hospital while Anna is in surgery, mainly around the waiting room but making sure Tony doesn’t spot her. Nicole looks forward at Tony for a moment and then at the ER where Anna is, and whispers to herself:

    Nicole: Well…this is the perfect chance. The perfect chance to become Tony’s missing DiMera child.

    -Maggie tells Abe with confusion in her voice that she thought Lexie was in jail for Tek’s murder, and Abe says that it was discovered that Tek’s death was an accident by a security tape, and Lexie was released. Maggie then says that should be a good thing, and Abe says:

    Abe: Well, I am glad she’s released, but I don’t feel comfortable with her around Theo with how she is known to embrace her “DiMera side”, if that makes sense. She already did it in 2002, and she did it again last year when she gallivanted around with Stefano. She may be better now, but Theo is just not safe around her. But I still don’t know…it would be difficult, and I don’t want to tear Theo away from his mother so suddenly.
    Maggie: Well, Abe, this will take some time if you decide to do it, and you have to make sure you take it slow for Theo’s sake. However, if you think he is in danger around Lexie, then I think it might be best for you to try getting custody, maybe at first giving Lexie some visitation rights just to keep her in his life.
    Abe: I just…don’t want to lose time with another son like I did Brandon. And I don’t want Theo being the next Stefano or Andre in twenty years.

    -Vivian slowly walks through the living room, checking Stefano’s desk for anything suspicious. She says to herself:

    Vivian: I will find that will…and I had better be in it…but if not…I’ll fix that.

    Vivian continues on, and she walks towards the staircase, only to hear sobbing. She raises an eyebrow as she walks up the stairs slowly, and once she gets to the bedroom door where the sobbing is coming from, she peeks in there to see Kristen!

    -Hope snaps that nothing is going on, and tells Bo she’s sick of his worrying, and that she’s just sick of it ALL! Hope tries to stomp off but Bo grabs her arm and tells her they need to talk about this, and Hope shouts:

    Hope: NO! I am not going to tell you, my family, friends, or anyone ANYTHING! Megan Hathaway was just here, you should be chasing after her, not badgering me!
    Bo: I don’t care about Megan, the cops can find her. I care about you.
    Hope: Listen, we should just go…

    Hope breaks free of Bo’s grip and angrily walks off…

    -Tony hears Vince in his head, and thinks:

    Tony: What…so you’re the one who Anna met in Italy?!
    Vince: Of course…I’m your protector, your guardian…not to mention Father’s star son and true heir.
    Tony: You mean Stefano? What the hell are you talking about?
    Vince: Unlike you, I am loyal to my father…I do his bidding no matter what it is. Although, he thinks I am you, but that is only a small complication…
    Tony: I want to know what you have done that I don’t know about…you seem too dangerous.
    Vince: That I am, but if it weren’t for me you would be much more of a wreck than you are now…you should be thanking me.

    -Vivian ignores Kristen, and simply continues on.. She sneaks into Stefano’s office, and begins to search around. She digs through the shelves, in his desk, yet finds nothing. She mutters “Damnit” but then she hears Kristen walk out of her room, and Vivian curses again. She says she’ll have to come back another time, and quickly climbs out the window to escape the DiMera Mansion…

    -Nicole peaks into Anna’s room, and overhears the doctors say she is stable for now, and they have the bullet out. As they leave the room and Anna lies unconscious, Nicole sneaks over and pulls Jan’s hair out of the pocket of Anna’s clothes as well as the stick with Jan’s saliva. She then switches it with her own, and says:

    Nicole: Well, this will prove that Jan is not the true DiMera child, and that I am…

    “This is a really nice place Maggie has here.”
    Julie
    “Yes it is. So how long do you plan on staying here in Salem?”
    David

    Penthouse Grille

    Victor and Celeste are slow dancing to a classical tune.
    Celeste
    “A man of your age is surpassingly light on the feet.”
    Victor
    “Your not so bad yourself Ms. Perrualt.”
    Celeste, laughs
    “Who would have ever guessed, me and you would end up on the dance floor together.”
    Victor
    “In a million years I wouldn’t have guessed it. But I will say this should have been happening some time ago. Celeste you are beautiful.”
    Celeste
    “Thank you darling. It’s been years since a man has told me something like that.”

    Victor
    “Well some one is blind then. We need to do this more often.”
    Celeste
    “I would like that. New year, new beginning’s”
    Victor
    “And Maybe new romances too.” Suddenly they hear
    “Over my dead body.” They both turn around and see Vivian.



    University Hospital

    Dr Mike Horton walks into Anna’s room. Anna slowly opens her eyes and looks at Mike
    Mike
    “Hey there. How you feel?”
    Anna
    “Like I got shot.”
    Mike
    “There. I see you got your sense of humor still. I’d say you’ll make a full recovery.”
    Anna
    “Great.”
    Mike
    Now how did this happen to you?”
    Anna has a flashback of walking into the Dimera mansion and seeing holding Kristen at gunpoint, Tony walks up to Kristen and they struggle for the gun. The gun goes off and Anna is shot.
    “I really don’t remember.” But what Anna really does remember is getting Jan’s DNA samples, or so she think she did.
    “Mike I need a huge favor.”
    Mike
    “Sure, what is it?”
    Anna
    “I have some DNA samples in my pants pocket. Please take them to the lab and tell me who’s DNA it matches too.”
    Mike
    “This is a bit odd. Anna, what is going on?”
    Anna
    “Please, don’t question me. I really need those results” She says pulling the hair samples and saliva filled q-tips to Mike
    Anna
    “The sooner the better”
    Mike, frowning
    “I’ll have the results by the end of the day.”
    Anna
    “Great. And keep this between us.”
    Mike
    “Sure” He says wondering what in the hell is this DNA thing all about.



    Back at Chez Rouge

    Julie approaches Lucas and Jan
    Lucas
    “Aunt Julie. It’s good to see you again” He says hugging her.
    Julie
    “I wish I could say the same Lucas. Your going out with your cousin’s baby’s mother.”
    Jan
    “Excuse me? What does that have to do with anything.”
    Julie
    “From one Horton to the next huh.”
    Jan
    “How dare you!”
    Julie
    “No how dare you? Don’t you have any self respect? Any class for yourself? I mean who in their right sane mind would steel sperm? Lucas I urge you to think twice before dating this little trouble maker.”
    Lucas
    “You know Julie, I have. I have thought about this long and hard. This is my life, and if I want to share it with Jan then that’s my business. I don’t come up to you telling you how to live your life. I’m a grown ass man so please respect that.” Lucas grabs Jan’s hand and they walk away as Jan looks back at Julie smiling.



    Pent House Grille

    Victor“You again. Are you stalking me?”
    Vivian
    “Of course not. It just so happens every where I am there you are. Salem isn’t that big you know.”
    Victor
    “I wish it were. The less I see of you the better. You make me sick Vivian. Your like a vulture. Always looking for easy prey. Stefano is dead and the first thing you want to think about is his will and the Diemera millions.”
    Celeste
    “I suggest you preoccupy your mind with other things besides the Dimera’s Vivian. Like keeping Alamain afloat. You have no business being worried about Stefano’s money.”
    Vivian
    “Like hell I do. Stefano owes me. I did a lot for him.”
    Celeste
    “And I gave birth to his daughter.”
    Vivian
    “Your not the only woman has woman he has evil spawn with.”
    Victor
    “Vivian that’s enough. I want you to leave know before I throw you out myself.”
    Vivian
    “This isn’t over Celeste. Stefano’s money belongs to me.”
    Celeste
    “We’ll see about that darling.” Vivian walks off. She thinks to herself “Celeste and Victor? What is the world coming to? I just know in my world, I will win Stefano’s millions. Celeste doesn’t stand a chance against me

    Lexie, tears forming in her eyes
    “Abe, no, you can’t do this. I am Theo’s mother. He needs me. You can’t cut me out like this.”
    Abe
    “I’m sorry but yes I have too. Your not a good mother and I don’t want my son anywhere near the Dimera name.” And with that Abe walks back inside his house. Lexie stands outside with tears rolling down her face. She says “You can’t do this to me Abe. I won’t let you take my son away from me.”

    Dr Mike Horton walks back into Anna’s room
    Anna
    “Please tell me you have the DNA results back.”
    Mike

    Outside the room is Nicole, over hearing everything. A devilish grin appears on her face as she says “Jackpot”……

    Jeremy

    Marlena
    “Oh my.”
    Delivery man
    “These are for Belle Black.” Marlena takes the flowers and hands them to Belle, then Marlena tips the delivery man.
    Belle

    Jeremy grabs his hot chocolate from the Java Café and garbs a seat with his cousin, Nick Fallon.
    Nick
    “So tell me what happened? How did it go with your father?”
    Jeremy
    “Not good man. He pops back in my life and expects me to say how high when he says jump. It’s not going to happen like that.”
    Nick
    “He is your father.”
    Jeremy
    “Not by choice. He wasn’t there for me half my life. Instead he pawned me off with my mother and for what? So he can romance women here in Salem?”
    Nick
    “You mean Carrie Brady?”
    Jeremy
    “Yes and for what? There not even together. Carrie is with Austin.
    Nick
    “Maybe you should let by gones be by gones. Leave all that stuff in the past.”
    Jeremy
    “Sorry Nick. I just can’t do that. My mother struggled raising me and keeping food on the table. Did my father come see how we were doing? No. SO just because he wants to be in my life when it’s convieant for him, doesn’t mean I have to partake. To me Mike Horton is dead!”

    Megan
    “What can I say? I’m a Dimera. You know us Dimera’s are above the law.”
    Hope
    “I don’t know about that, but I know this, you’re a pathetic Bitch.” Hope throws her drink in Megan’s face and walks out the bar.

    Sami
    “Well I am not asking for a Nobel prize or something. I am trying to turn over a new leaf in my life. After EJ was shot on that island, I have had a new outlook on life.”
    Lexie
    “I’m glad Sami. It shows your really are maturing.”
    Sami
    “Lexie, I don’t want to be ruder but I don’t need you telling me how mature I am. Your not the best person to be passing judgment. You are a Dimera by the way.”
    Lexie
    “You’re right. I am. Look Sami, I just came by to tell you thank you. I hope we can bury hatchet.”
    Sami
    “Anything is possible.”
    Lexie
    “That’s all I can hope for. Listen, I won’t hold you up any longer so I’ll be on my way.”
    Sami
    “Well thanks for stopping by.”
    Lexie, turning back and looking at her
    “And Sami, if you ever need someone to talk to, I am only a phone call away. I know you’re dealing with a lot with losing EJ.”

    Salem University Hospital

    Kristen slowly walks into Roman’s room. She grabs a seat by his bedside. Being with Roman makes Kristen feel safe at the moment. She knows with him, she doesn’t have to worry about anything. Roman always did make her feel safe. Kristen has images of Tony(Vince) raping her. They replay over and over again in her mind. She wipes a tear from her cheek. She holds Roman's hand and begins to talk to her ex lover
    “John, I mean Roman, It makes me ill to see you like this. You have to wake up baby. I need you. Something bad has happened. I don’t know what to do John.” She says trying to fight back tears.
    “Tony has done something horrible.” The mention of Tony’s name gets Kristen going. She breaks loose a river of tears. That is until Marlena announces her presences with the slamming of the door.

    Maggie
    “How dare you! I will not have you speak to me in that manner. I demand some respect.”
    Jan
    “You have to give respect in order to give it. Treat others as you would want to be treated and so far the rest of the Horton family has treated me very shitty and I am tired of it.”
    Maggie
    “We wouldn’t have to if you had some descent morals about yourself. I mean what sane person goes and steal sperm from a dead man. You’re sick and demented. You’re evil and I will not let you weasel your way into this family.”
    Jan
    “You don’t have a choice. Lucas is falling for me and I am carrying a Horton child.”
    Maggie
    “You are a disgrace and I will not let you taint the Horton name missy. I wouldn’t mess with me. I from the old school and I will take you out. Don’t let this smile and collected attitude fool you.”

    Marlena
    “Then you shouldn’t be here then. I hope I don’t have to get a restraining order against you.”
    Kristen
    “It’s not that serious Saint Marlena.” Kristen gets up and walks past Marlena, bumping into her and then leaving. Marlena shakes her head. “Something is not right with her at all. I’ve never seen her so distraught.” Marlena looks at her husband laying peacefully in the bed. After spending a little time with John, Marlena leaves and goes into her office

    “So how are you? Any more thoughts about Theo?”
    Abe
    “Actually Lexie stopped by last night. It didn’t go well at all.”
    Maggie
    “I am so sorry to hear that.”
    Abe
    “Don’t be. I think it was a blessing in disguise. It’s like a light switch went off in my brain. It’s more clearer then ever that I cannot let Lexie be apart of Theo’s life. She’s unstable and unbalanced and I don’t want my son around that.”
    Maggie
    “Where’s little Theo now?”
    Abe
    “He’s with Celeste. I told her to steer clear of Lexie.”
    Maggie
    “So did you tell Lexie you are suing for sole parental rights?”
    Abe
    “Yes I did. She was none to thrilled. So I expect this custody battle to be a long drawn out war.”
    Maggie
    “Do you think that’s best for Theo?
    Abe
    “You know Maggie, it may not be but at the end of the day it will be worth it. I don’t want my son to be influenced by the Dimera’s.”
    Maggie
    “Poor Abe. You got a lot on your plate. I bet you haven’t had a good meal in weeks”
    Abe
    “You know, you’re right. I’ve been so busy down at the station and with Theo that I really haven’t. I forget what real food taste like.”

    “Then why don’t you come to Chez Rouge and I’ll fix you a nice meal”

    Episode#220: Who REALLY Killed Kate?

    -Vivian knocks on the door of Celeste’s house, and looks around and comments that she forgot how middle-class people can live. Celeste opens it, and groans and asks:

    Celeste: Vivian Alamain, what more do you want? You already gave me and Victor a blasting at the Penthouse Grille, and I have enough on my plate with Stefano dead, and my daughter fighting her ex-husband for her son, so I am not in the mood to deal with you.
    Vivian: I could care less about your personal drama with your daughter and grandson, I want to know why YOU want Stefano’s will.
    Celeste: This again, Dahling? If you really must know, Alexandra and I deserve Stefano’s money and possessions! She is his daughter, and I served him at Maison Blanche for years! I was his right-hand woman, assisting him in whatever he needed. And why do you think you are entitled to ANYTHING in his will?
    Vivian: I was married to the man for heaven’s sake! I deserve something!
    Celeste: It was a loveless marriage, a marriage of nothing, and not even a long one. I was one of the only few women who truly loved him! I may hate him now and have for the recent years of my life, but unlike you, Kate, Megan’s mother, Lee DuMonde, Helena Cassadine, Susan Banks, Ellen Hawk, and even Daphne DiMera, I LOVED STEFANO! I SERVED HIM SO WELL FOR SO LONG BECAUSE I LOVED HIM!

    -At the Salem Inn, Steve tells Sami that he can’t be arrested because EJ attacked him first and would not stop, so he was forced to shoot at him more than once. Sami tells him to not give her that bull, and that he killed EJ just because he was a DiMera and of course everyone in town always thinks every DiMera is evil just because Stefano was. Steve tells her that’s not true, and that EJ also helped take everyone hostage last October and November in Italy at the DiMera Palace. Sami then tells him to just shut up and get out. Meanwhile, the mysterious figure in the other room begins to snoop around, looking through pictures, files, and anything else…

    -Nicole takes a heavy breath and says this is it, and inside Marlena tells Tony “One moment” and goes to answer the door, but suddenly Nicole is taken by surprise when an up-and-around Anna grabs her arm and pulls her into a separate hallway. Nicole looks at a bandaged Anna and asks her what the hell she’s doing, while Marlena answers the door and raises an eyebrow when she doesn’t see anyone. She shuts the door and turns back to Tony, and then says:

    Marlena: Now, first of all, Tony…I have a very important question, although you might not know the answer. First I will ask this: Your alternate personality, Vince I believe to be his name from what I hear, he was in control from late October to late November, correct?
    Tony: From what I know, yes he was.
    Marlena: Then I ask you this: Was it really Helena Cassadine who killed Kate in Italy last November?

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Nicole asks Anna what on earth she’s doing up, and Anna asks how she knew she was shot, and Nicole lies that she was here to visit Marlena and saw her rushed to the ER. Anna says she should be fine so she was allowed to get up and be released, and then says that she can’t let her speak to Marlena. Nicole then asks:

    Nicole: Why the hell not?! You have no business saying what I can or can’t do!
    Anna: You…you just can’t!
    Nicole: Oh, is this because I’m Tony and Marlena’s missing child?

    -Vivian tells Celeste to quit her sob story, and that she could care less. She tells Celeste to back off, and that some low-class servant woman will not get Stefano DiMera’s will, and that she, her daughter, and her grandson will get NOTHING when she takes control of the DiMera Empire. Celeste then suddenly slaps Vivian and Vivian yells out in pain, and Celeste says in a monotone:

    Celeste: I’m afraid that won’t happen, Dahling.

    -Steve tells Sami he’ll respect her wishes and will leave this time, he knows she needs time to grieve over EJ’s death, and he’ll give her that, but he’ll be back. Sami then snaps:

    Sami: Don’t bother…because next time you come back…I’ll be here, waiting, this time with a gun, just like you were when you ran into EJ on that island.

    Steve turns and leaves, and Sami slams the door shut, while the mysterious figure hears it and begins to climb out the window of the Inn…

    -Tony tells Marlena with a sigh he wouldn’t know, and Marlena says that Kate was Helena’s ally and helped her try to kill Sami, so she’s not sure Helena would kill her unless Kate tried to turn on her. Marlena also then says that Kate was killed in the garden of the DiMera Palace, while Helena may have still been inside while Stefano tried to chase her down after the hostage situation ended. Tony thinks back, and Marlena sighs and says:

    Marlena: Tony…to discover some answers, even more answers than just Kate’s mysterious death, I might have to put you under hypnotism.

    Tony sighs and thinks for a moment, and then says:

    Tony: F-fine…do whatever it takes. I just want to find out all of what my alter has done in these past few months, not to mention years…

    Marlena then prepares to put Tony under hypnotism to bring out the evil Vince DiMera…

    Episode#221: Marlena Meets Vince

    -Vivian tells Celeste to never touch her again, and Celeste tells Vivian that she won’t let her get her hands on something that is rightfully hers. Vivian then says:

    Vivian: Oh please…you are being ridiculous. I am wiser and more cunning than you, I shall have Stefano’s will.
    Celeste: Dahling, if you were cunning and wise then you would have Stefano’s will changed to what you wanted by now, and you wouldn’t be here. You are only here because you have failed at finding his will.

    Vivian screams in anger, and tells Celeste that she hasn’t seen the last of her, and Vivian quickly turns and stomps out, as Celeste smirks and mutters “The poor foolish woman.”

    -David walks into the graveyard in Salem by St.Luke’s alone, and he looks at Renee DiMera’s, his ex wife, grave. He stares at it, and as a tear falls from his eye, he leans down and says:

    David: Well…its been a long time, hasn’t it? I know we weren’t on good terms when you died but….I still care about you Renee, deeply. And I think about you every day…and your death still haunts me.

    -Anna’s eyes widen in shock and she trembles “Wh-what the hell are you talking about?” and Nicole laughs and then says:

    Nicole: Oh don’t play dumb with me, Anna. I know I am the child of Marlena and Tony. I heard Mike Horton telling you the good news.
    Anna: This is insane. Why do you seem to be taking it so lightly?
    Nicole: Because somehow I always knew Faye was not my mother, or that pig Paul. Brandon isn’t even Paul’s child, I had a feeling I might be some other person’s child too, or as it seems other people’s child. So I’ve been preparing myself for this moment. And get ready because the heir of the DiMera Empire has arrived and her name is Nicole Walker DiMera.
    Anna: Well I’m afraid you won’t be able to go public with this information, because I…I…I can’t let Tony and Marlena know you are their child!

    -Marlena begins the hypnosis process on Tony, and as it begins in its first stages Tony says while he has his eyes closed:

    Tony: Marlena…no…I can’t do this…
    Marlena: Shhh…it’ll be fine…leave it all to me…

    Tony begins to breathe heavily but Marlena shushes him gently, and for a moment he is perfectly still as Tony fades away, and then his eyes snap open and he says:

    Vince: Well well well…Marlena Evans…oh my it has been so long since we’ve been alone and face to face…you were always my very favorite woman.

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -David caresses Renee’s grave, and several more tears fall from his eyes, and he exclaims in anger:

    David: Damnit Renee we could have worked out, but you had to try to kill Anna and Tony’s baby…and I couldn’t stay with you because of that…I couldn’t…but…I still love you to this day and will never be able to stop…I would have come to that party if I knew you were going to die…and….I would have finally told you how I felt deep down….

    -Nicole looks at Anna angrily and snaps “How the hell are you gonna stop me, bitch?!” and Anna says it would just make Tony, Marlena, and her own lives so much more hectic than they already are, and goes on to say that Marlena is trying to cope with the fact that her husband is catatonic, and Tony is battling an evil alternate personalty. Nicole counters her by saying:

    Nicole: Well this would be a joy and I could comfort them both.
    Anna: Oh, really? Listen, Miss High-And-Mighty, I’ve been back in Salem for over a year now, and I have definitely heard of you. You weren’t some goody goody to your other parents, or to anyone in this town except your bed buddies. I think you could care less about Tony or Marlena and you just want that DiMera Money and power.
    Nicole: I just think you don’t want to lose your husband to my new mother because you’re scared I’ll bring them together.

    -Marlena says “Well, you are Vince, I take it?” and Vince says he is here in the flesh, and Marlena tells him that she has a few questions for him. Vince tells her as long as its not too personal he will play along, and she nods and then asks:

    Marlena: First, how long have you existed?
    Vince: Since about 1985 or 1986, when Tony split into another piece.
    Marlena: And why did he do that, Vince?
    Vince: Because Tony was torn over losing Renee, and wanting to hate Stefano but love his father at the same time…and his emotions were so fragile after disappearing of the pier, I was born, and took control. I became my father’s perfect child, his heir, his loyal servant…I did whatever he asked, no matter what it was.

    -Celeste walks around her house, cleaning a bit with her vaccum, but suddenly she puts her vaccum down and looks around, making sure she is alone, and then she walks over to a small chest and pulls out a key, and unlocks it. She gently lifts the top of it, and there is a piece of paper inside of it that is rolled up in a bow. As she undoes the bow, she stretches the paper back to its full state, and stares at it and then says:

    Celeste: Yes…at long last…I view Stefano’s will…

    Suddenly Vivian bursts in, saying she forgot her purse, and Celeste looks up at her in shock and as Vivian walks over to her, she sees the paper and exclaims:

    Vivian: How the HELL did you get that?!

    Episode#222: Celeste’s New Extreme

    -Anna tells Nicole to shut up and that she doesn’t know what she’s talking about, but Nicole says that now that Marlena’s husband is a veggie she’s free to be with Tony, and Anna snaps that Tony would never leave her for Marlena, and Nicole says:

    Nicole: She already stole Roman from you, right? Even when you had his saintly daughter Carrie, and you don’t even have a child with Tony, so he’ll drop you like a hot potato.
    Anna: You bitch…I’ll kill you.

    -Marlena writes the information Vince gave her down, and then she says “I see…interesting, now onto our next question.” and Vince asks what that would be, and Marlena answers:

    Marlena: Now Vince…what things have you done over the years?
    Vince: Oh such a big list it is hard to count…many many crimes for Stefano, mostly what I have done over the years…
    Marlena: Was it you or Andre that orchestrated the Salem Serial Killer?
    Vince: Andre.
    Marlena: And did Helena really murder Kate in Italy a few months ago?

    -Vivan tells Celeste to answer her, and Celeste tells Vivian it is none of her business. Vivian shouts that Celeste is holding Stefano’s will, and its not like Stefano would just hand it over to her. Celeste again says:

    Celeste: It is none of your business, Dahling. Now go.
    Vivian: Not without that will in my hands!
    Celeste: I am afraid you are going to leave, Dahling, and you will never tell anyone.

    Celeste then pulls out a gun from her pocket, and points it at Vivian!

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -At Maggie’s house, Nick comes downstairs and tells Maggie he has news for her. Maggie is sitting in the living room and she asks what kind of news, and as Nick sits down he says:

    Nick: Well as you know I’ve been in Salem for about a year now, and lately I’ve been trying to find a job, or a career, to do here, especially since Great-Gran died. And I’ve finally decided…I’ve want to follow in my other family members’ footsteps and study to be a doctor!
    Maggie: Oh my gosh Nick, that’s great!

    Maggie and Nick both smile and hug….

    -Nicole says with a sarcastic tone “Awww, did I set off my stepmother’s nerves?” and Anna walks right up to Nicole’s face and as she points at Nicole she hisses:

    Anna: Now you listen, I don’t care if you are Tony’s daughter or not…you do not toy with me, and I am warning you now, Anna DiMera doesn’t play games like you do. So, new stepdaughter, you’re either with me or against me, and if you are against me…you won’t like it for long.

    -Vince laughs and asks why Marlena would ask that, and Marlena tells Vince that she must make sure, because no matter how much she hates Helena, she doesn’t want the finger pointed at the wrong person. Vince smiles and says:

    Vince: Oh Marlena, my dear Marlena…you are so smarter, much smarter than the rest of these fools in Salem…you know that Helena didn’t really kill Kate, don’t you? You figured it out the moment you put all of this together…
    Marlena: To be honest with you, yes, ever since Tony walked in here looking for help I knew that Helena didn’t really kill Kate…it was you wasn’t it?
    Vince: Of course it was…I was the one who shot Kate Roberts in the DiMera Garden.

    -Vivian nervously asks Celeste what she’s going to do with that, and Celeste says she is going to fire it if Vivian does not leave. Vivian says:

    Vivian: C-Celeste…you are one of the good people in this town…you shouldn’t fire a gun…
    Celeste: I don’t care when it comes to Stefano’s will. Now, you have five seconds to leave. Five…four…three…two…ONE!

    Episode#223: Tony learns who really killed Kate

    -Jan is at the Spears Mansion alone, and as she reads a magazine she hears a knock on the door and gets up and opens it to see Bo. She asks him what he wants, and he says he’s here to talk with her about Shawn’s child. Jan asks what does he need to know, and Bo replies:

    Bo: I want to discuss custody rights.

    -Nicole tells Anna to bring it on because if she can fry Victor Kiriakis in his bath tub than she can take on some woman like her, Anna warns Nicole that just when she thinks she has the upper hand, she’ll swoop in and throw it down.

    -Marlena sighs, and Vince says “Not shocked?” and Marlena says that she expected an answer like that, because of the circumstances. She then goes on to explain it didn’t match up since Helena wouldn’t have logically had enough time to escape the DiMera Palace right after the hostage crisis ended. Vince tells Malrena she is without a doubt, a smart woman. Marlena asks:

    Marlena: Now, what other notable crimes have you pulled?
    Vince: None, really. However, enough questions, because you know basically what I have done. I have something else in mind…

    As Vince begins to stroke Marlena’s cheek, Marlena immediately snaps her fingers and Vince begins to fade away as he puts his hands to his head, and Tony re-emerges…

    -Vivian tells Celeste fine, but she hasn’t seen the last of her. Vivian stomps out angrily, and Celeste smirks as she puts the gun back in her pocket. She turns to the will and whispers:

    Celeste: Now…let me change this will to how I desire…

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Jan says “EXCUSE me?” and Bo tells her that he hasn’t been able to talk to her because of Gina running rapid a few months ago and then problems with Hope, and Jan snaps:

    Jan: I’m NOT sharing custody of MY child with you and your wife! Last I heard she was guzzling down alcohol.
    Bo: And you are psychotic. Much more dangerous than my wife.
    Jan: Not a chance, bastard.

    Jan then slams the door shut.

    -Nicole snorts and says that she’ll be waiting for Anna’s wrath, and Anna just tells her for now to stay away from Tony and Marlena, and if she doesn’t she’ll regret it. Anna walks away, and Nicole then laughs and says;

    Nicole: Fine, “stepmother”…I’ll play along…for now. But this will only make my revelation even more sweet…

    -Marlena asks Tony if he is Tony, and Tony slowly and even a bit shakily says “Y-yes?” and Marlena says she was able to talk to Vince. Tony sighs, and asks her what she learned. Marlena replies that she has learned most of the crimes that Vince committed. She explains that most of them were regular DiMera crimes, being a henchman for Stefano, but also…she says it was Vince who killed Kate in Italy. Tony’s face suddenly becomes pale, and he stares at Marlena, and says:

    Tony: Th-thank you…Marlena…I must go no-
    Marlena: No, Tony, wait. I know this is painful, and it hurts so much…but its not your fault.
    Tony: But I was the one who created that damn disaster!
    Marlena: You weren’t consciously doing it though!

    Marlena puts her arms around Tony and she says she knows its so hard, but she will help him through this. Tony gently pushes her off of him and says he can’t take all of this, and quickly leaves the room. Marlena sighs…

    -Celeste later puts Stefano’s will back where she found it, and says quietly “There we go…all as I wanted. Now, I will truly get what I deserve. As will my daughter, and my grandson…

    A mysterious figure watches through the window and says “Not for long Celeste, not for long…”

    Episode#224: The Beginning of Stefano’s Funeral

    -A new day in Salem rises. It is the day of Stefano’s “funeral”, and at St.Luke’s, Celeste and Lexie walk into the empty church and all that is there is Stefano’s coffin and his picture. Celeste asks Lexie why Theodore could not come today, and Lexie says with a sigh that Abe still won’t let her see him. Lexie then says to Celeste:

    Lexie: He wants to pursue custody of Theo, Mom. I don’t know what to do.
    Celeste: If Abraham does not come around in time, then you must fight him for Theodore. A mother should be with her son.
    Lexie: I know…its just all of this is so confusing right now…
    Voice: Oh so you’re afraid to fight your puny little ex-husband but you’re not afraid to betray our father?

    Lexie and Celeste turn to see Megan Hathaway standing in the doorway of the Church…

    -Tony and Anna are getting ready to leave the DiMera Mansion, and Tony tells her he’s glad she was able to be released from the hospital so early. Anna agrees, and comments she wishes she could find that Kristen woman so she could give her a piece of her mind. Tony nods and says he wonders what is wrong with her, and Anna says they shouldn’t worry about her, they just need to concentrate on their lives. As Anna and Tony walk outside to their car, Anna asks:

    Anna: So, how did your therapy session with Marlena go? We didn’t get much of a chance to talk last night after we got home.
    Tony: Well enough…I suppose…we did make some good progress…
    Anna: No other details?
    Tony: Not really.

    Anna raises an eyebrow at Tony but he assures her everything is fine as they get into the car and drive off…

    -Maggie and Marlena are in Maggie’s car together, on their way to Bo and Hope’s house because they are riding with them to St.Luke’s for the funeral, and Maggie says that this funeral is really a landmark. Marlena says it could be, and Maggie says with a laugh that the infamous Stefano DiMera is dead and that this is definitely a landmark. There is a moment of silence and Maggie asks:

    Maggie: How have you been since Roman went into that catatonic state? We haven’t gotten to talk much because I’ve been wrapped up with Chez Rouge and my family.
    Marlena: Oh its fine, I’ve been busy with my psychiatrist job as well. Anyway, I am doing…as well as I can be. I have to be strong for my family, and I have faith that Roman will come back to us. He’s done more amazing things before.
    Maggie: You definitely have a good point there, but are you absolutely sure he’ll come back this time? I don’t want to be negative but as your good friend, I don’t want you to get your hopes up too high.
    Marlena: I will admit that in the back of my mind, part of me is afraid. Afraid that he’ll be like this for the rest of his life…but if I, his own wife, do not have faith then who will?
    Maggie: Very true. But hopefully Roman can be at ease knowing his rival is dead.
    Marlena: *If* he is dead.

    -At Bo and Hope’s house, Hope asks Bo if they really need to go to this funeral, and Bo says while he may not want to, they probably should, also to make sure no one gets out of hand there. Hope points out that things could get even more out of hand with them there, and Bo tells her he’s going to try to keep his cool, and she should too. Hope then says:

    Hope: Well Bo, I can’t exactly be the calmest person there after all that man put us through. Lets see, he blamed us for murdering Megan when we didn’t even do it, and then it turns out the bitch was never dead. He put your older brother through hell, he kidnapped me and made me think I was Gina. He stole your and Billie’s daughter, and if he hadn’t, Zack wouldn’t be dead right now. Not to mention how he toyed with our lives when he switched Zack and JT. And I have no doubt in my mind that if Gina hadn’t killed Shawn, Stefano would’ve.
    Bo: Fancy Face, I know. I hate the bastard too but we can’t let our anger take control.
    Hope: And you know what, Bo? I think mine already has!

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Celeste coldly snaps to Megan to stay out of this, and to get out of the church or go hide somewhere before she calls the police. Megan tells her not a chance, but before Celeste can say anything more, Lexie tells her to just go sit down and that she can handle this. Lexie looks at Megan and says:

    Lexie: Now listen, we may be sisters, but you mind your own damn business. Our father deserved me turning my back on him, and he’s not the great man you make him out to be. And while I don’t love Abe anymore, he sure as hell is a great man.
    Megan: Father is much better than him! If your ex was so clever he would’ve caught Father a long time ago. But you know, I hope he does keep that little son of yours, because there’s no way in hell that in twenty years or so that some little black boy is ruling the DiMera Empire.

    Lexie’s eyes flare up in hatred and anger, and she curls her hand up into a fist and PUNCHES Megan, and tells Megan to next time keep her mouth shut. As Megan holds her face in pain, Lexie goes and sits down…

    -Kristen sits outside St.Luke’s as people begin to arrive, and she sheds some tears as she flashes back to all that has transpired over the past month, specifically Stefano’s death and her rape. She tells herself to not think about the rape today, and just focus on her father and honoring him. Suddenly she hears a voice say “Kristen? Is that you?” and Kristen gasps and turns to see a face and says:

    Kristen: Oh my…Peter?!?!?
    Peter: Yes, Kristen, its me. I’m home.

    Kristen rushes to hug her brother and they embrace, and Kristen tells him she’s so glad he’s back, and Peter assures her he’ll be back for a long, long time…

    -Maggie tells Marlena that who knows anymore, but hopefully he’ll stay dead this time. Marlena agrees, and says that she has more to worry about than just Stefano DiMera. The car pulls up to Bo and Hope’s house, and both women get out and head inside…

    -Bo tells Hope that what she’s been doing lately has been out of anger and pain, but he thinks it’ll pass in time. Hope tells him he didn’t have that attitude the other night, and Bo says “Exactly, because I was angry.” and Hope tells him that they just need to go, and right then Marlena and Maggie walk in, and Hope simply tells them that they’re just about to leave as she walks out the door. Bo sighs as Maggie frowns and Marlena looks at Hope with worry, and Maggie tells both of them they have to do something about her. Bo and Marlena both agree as they walk out the door.

    -At St.Luke’s, people slowly arrive and gather inside the church, including Kristen, Peter, Tony, Anna, Marlena, Maggie, Bo, Hope, Victor, Vivian, Celeste, Lexie, Megan at the back of the church, and others. Father Jansen then arrives, and says its time to begin…

    After the funeral ends, inside of St Luke’s Church,
    Marlena approaches Bo and Hope
    "Hello you two"
    Bo
    "Hey Marlena how are you?"
    Marlena
    "I am good. I mean what more can I ask for? The devil himself is finally dead. I think this calls for a celebration."
    Bo
    "Well we all know he is the Phoenix. I am sure he will rise again. Just like he always does."
    Marlena
    "I don’t know Bo, I like to hope and pray he is gone for good. It keeps me going." Looking at Hope
    "Hope, are you ok? You haven’t said a word?"
    Hope, arching her eyebrow
    "I’m not drunk if that’s what you’re asking." After saying that Hope storms off, heading outside.
    Marlena
    "Oh my, I didn’t mean to upset her."
    Bo
    "It’s not your fault Marlena. Something is seriously wrong with Hope. The scariest thing is, I don’t know what’s wrong with her nor do I know how to fix it."
    Megan Hathaway, hiding in one of the confessional’s has just witnessed Hope’s latest outburst. Having seen her enemy walk outside, Megan decides to not pass the opportunity to strike at her arch enemy. Megan sneaks out the confessional and goes to confront Hope.


    Episode: 225, Megan vs. Hope
    Written by ML Cooks

    Victor holding Celeste and with Lexie on the other side of him walks up to the front of the church to view Stefano’s picture, which is taking the place of Stefano’s body. Stefano is smiling, deviously in a pin stripe suite looking into the eyes of his mourners. Even in a picture, The Great Dimera still sends chills through Celeste’s spine
    Lexie
    "I can’t believe my father is really dead."
    Celeste
    "Alexandra darling, you shouldn’t believe it. He’ll be back. He’s not done with us yet."
    Victor
    "Celeste, the paper said he out of a moving ambulance and rolled down a mountain. Surely the old man could not survive that."
    Celeste
    "You’d be surprised. Stefano is full of surprises. My cards tell me he has more in store for the residents in Salem. Evil hasn’t left Salem yet. He’s waiting, for the right moment. He’ll be back." Then they all hear a voice say
    "Still up to your old antics I see." Victor, Lexie and Celeste turn around and see Peter Blake with Kristen.
    Celeste
    "Peter Blake. Stefano’s adopted demon seed."
    Kristen
    "You better watch your mouth. Peter has never been found guilty of anything."
    Victor
    "Kristen Please! Your as bad as the next one. Faking a pregnancy! Hiring a bucked tooth dummy who believes in vampires to impersonate you. You held Marlena hostage. The list goes on."
    Peter
    "And who are you supposed to be? Shouldn’t you be in a retirement home? You look like you’re about to croak any minute."
    Lexie
    "Alright Damn it that’s enough! This is my father’s funeral and I will need everyone to respect that. Take the drama outside. Have some dignity Please!" Lexie storms off.
    Victor
    "This isn’t over son. Not by a long shot. I may be old, but a force still to be reckoned with. Don’t let my silver lining fool you. Your old man is dead and you are nothing with out him. I’m a Kirakis and don’t you ever forget that." Looking at Celeste " Come Celeste let’s grab a seat." Celeste and Victor walk off.

    Maggie walks over to Marlena and Bo
    Maggie
    "Hello Bo, Marlena"
    Marlena
    "Maggie, it’ nice to see you."
    Bo
    "Yes it is."
    Maggie
    "I saw Hope storm off. Is everything ok?"
    Bo
    "That’s a good question. No one seems to know. Maybe I should go after her."
    Marlena
    "I don’t think that’s such a good idea. Hope may just need some space right now to get through whatever it is she’s going through."
    Maggie
    "I agree with Marlena. Hope seems so disturbed these last few weeks. I really noticed it when she came back from that island."
    Bo
    "I did too. Something must of happened on the island that’s making her act this way."
    Marlena
    "Indeed. She’s hiding it and doesn’t know how to handle it. That could be why she’s been drinking."
    Maggie
    "We have to do something. Being an a drunk doesn’t help anything. I should know."
    Marlena
    "You’re right."
    Bo
    "It all sounds good, but how in the hell do we reach out to her if she just pushes every one away?"
    Maggie, looking out in the guests to see who else has arrived,
    "Well would you look at that."
    Marlena
    "What?"
    Maggie
    "Peter Blake has come back to Salem." Bo, Marlena and Maggie watch Peter and Kirsten talk.
    Peter
    "We haven’t gone to see Tony yet. Let’s go over to say hi."
    Kristen, having a flash back in her mind of Tony/Vince raping her
    "No! I don’t want to go anywhere near that Bastard!"
    Peter, looking at his sister with concern
    "Kris, what’s the matter? What did Tony do?"
    Kristen
    "I don’t want to talk about it. Don’t ask me no more. I’m just glad you’re here now." She says hugging her older brother. Peter wonders what is going with Kirsten and Tony. He tells himself he is going to find out.
    As Tony and Anna mingle with other guests, Anna looks on at Kirsten, wondering what did she walk in on that day at the Dimera mansion when Kirsten shot her in the stomach.
    "I need some answers. And Tony or Vince or who ever in the hell he wants to be today is ginving me any." She says in her mind.
    "Tony, I’m going to talk to a few friends."
    Tony, smiling at her pecking on the cheek
    "Hurry back."
    Anna walks over toward Kristen. Just as Anna is about to say something to Kirsten, she sees Nicole Walker..DiMera walking into the back of the church. Nicole smiles at Anna "Damn it. Not now Nicole. Not today. Please don’t tell the world you’re a Dimera today."
    Before anything else can happen, a voluptuous woman wearing a form fitting red dress, with big over sized glasses to cover her face and a red scarf walks into the church. Everyone wonders who is the glamorous, out of place woman.
    Meanwhile, outside St. Luke’s, As Hope walks past some statues, taking in the cold air, Megan walks into her path.
    "Lonely and cold out here isn’t it Hope?"
    Hope ignores Megan by turning the other way.
    Megan
    "Aww what’s the matter? Not feeling so fancy today ugly face?"
    Hope turns back around to face Megan with a look of rage in her eyes.
    Megan, reaching in her coat pocket, pulling out a small bottle of gin
    "I got something for you. I knew you would need it."
    Hope
    "You thought wrong Bitch!" Hope takes her two hands and wraps them around Megan’s neck. Hope has a flash back of Killing Gina by smothering her. Hope felt so much rage and anger that she’s having those same’s feelings right now as her grip around Megan’s neck gets tighter and Megan’s once pale white face is turning blue. Megan takes the bottle she had in her hand in the face of a death grip, bashes Hope in the head with it, causing it to shatter and the alcohol soaks into Hope’s clothes. Hope passes out from the blow to her head, falling to the ground.
    Megan
    "I win. Ha Ha! Megan says and walks back into the church to spy on the deziens of Salem once more. Hope continues to lay on the cold snow filled ground, unconscious....

    Somewhere, anywhere The Phoenix himself , indeed alive, and well, lays on a hospital bed, hooked to ventilators and heart monitors. Two masked figures, one male and female, look over Stefano, then they look into a tv monitor and look at the residents of Salem, at Stefano’s funeral, looking upon a woman in red,

    Back at St.Luke's, Vivian comes storming into the church
    "Somebody better get out there and get poor Hope. My God, she’s passed out drunk just outside." Vivian stops as she sees the woman in red. The woman turns around, places her hands on her hips and looks at Vivian. The woman takes her glasses and scarf off. Vivian is stunned
    Vivian
    "Valentine Heart!"
    Marlena
    "You know this woman?"
    Vivian
    "She’s my sister!" Everyone is stunned



    Episode 226, Valentine WHO?
    Written by ML Cooks

    Midtown Salem,
    Marlena’s Penthouse,
    Belle is sipping hot tea, looking out the patio window. The snow flakes falling from the sky puts Belle in a trance of peace and tranquility. That is until her cell phone rings. She puts her tea down and answers her phone. "Hello?"
    "Belle, I’m glad you answered."
    Belle
    "Nicholas?"
    "Yes, it’s me. Listen, I am in a bit of a bind and I really need your help."
    Belle
    "Well what’s’s going on? Are you ok?"
    Nicholas
    "I really can’t talk right now. Just please get down to Salem Place as fast as you can. I really need you right now."
    Then Belle hears the other end click. "What is going on?" She says to her self as she puts her boots and coat on, leaving the penthouse.

    Back At St. Luke’s
    Valentine
    "I’m surprised you even know who I am. After all, I never hear from you."
    Vivian
    "Just what the hell are you doing here?"
    Valentine
    "The same reason why you are here. To mourn the loss of Stefano."
    Vivian
    "Stefano? What in God’s name are you talking about? You don’t know Stefano."
    Valentine
    "Oh yes I do. Very well." She winks her eye at her older sister. Vivian rolls her eyes.
    Vivian, looking at Bo
    "Don’t just stand there you fool, Your fancy face is passed out drunk." Bo, side tracked by Valentine’s sudden appearance jumps up and heads out side followed by Marlena, and Maggie.
    Vivian walking over to her sister and grabbing her by the arm and pulling her aside.
    "Cut the bull. What are you really doing here?" Valentine smiles and walks away from Vivian. Valentine walks up to Stefano’s picture and pulls out some tissue and sheds a few tears.
    Vivian, looking on at her sister with evil eyes
    "I am not having this. This is the last thing I need. A slutty Valentine. Everything seems to be against me. I have to do something. I have to turn things around."

    Salem Inn
    Lucas brings some fresh popped popcorn out from the kitchen and over to the couch where Jan sits, admiring the fire place.
    Lucas
    "You ready for the movie? You said you been wanting to see this one."
    Jan, looking into Lucas’s eyes
    "Nah, no movie, I just want to sit here and talk."
    Lucas
    "OK... Is something wrong?"
    Jan, nibbling at her popcorn
    "Nothing is the matter. I just wanted us to talk."
    Lucas
    "Ok, shoot, what’s on your mind."
    Jan
    "You and I both know that your aunt Maggie and Julie have made it very clear they don’t want me in the Horton family and they despise that I got myself pregnant with Shawn’s baby. How do you really feel about me carrying your’s cousin’s child?"
    Lucas, not expecting that question from her, stares into her eyes, thinking of his answer.
    "To be honest, I don’t even think of it. I just see you as pregnant. It’s doesn’t matter who’s the father. I am falling in love with you, and I want us to raise this baby together. Me and you, a family."
    Jan
    "Wow, no one has ever said anything like that to me before."
    Lucas
    "Well hopefully this is just the start of the rest of our days together." He leans in and kisses her. He then pulls back and she smiles at him.
    Jan
    "I really don’t remember the last time I was this overjoyed. I have new hope for this baby." As she says that, she remembers Bo coming to see her and threatening to take full custody of her unborn child.
    "No one will take this baby from me. Not Bo, not Hope, not anyone."
    Lucas
    "You got that right. You shouldn’t have to worry about that." He says holding her.
    "I don’t care what I have to do, No one will take this child from me, ..no one." Jan says to herself.

    Downtown Salem,
    Salem Place,
    Belle walks around the shopping mall looking for Nicholas. He taps her on the shoulder from behind. Belle is startled
    Nicholas
    "Oh I’m sorry didn’t mean to sneak up on you."
    Belle
    "Yeah well this is the town of the devil, the river front knifer and the Salem serial killer. "
    Nicholas, laughs
    "Thanks for coming down here so soon."
    Belle
    " It’s no problem. Now you said you needed help. What’s going on?"
    Nicholas
    "You promise you won’t laugh? I am kind of embarrassed.’
    Belle
    "Embarrassed? Nicholas, what is going on?"
    Nicholas
    "You see, I’m not very good reading with out my glasses, can you look up and tell me what that says?" He says pointing toward the sky. Then into Belle’s view, a small plane flies past, circling Salem square with a message tied on the plane that reads "Belle, will you be my Valentine?" Belle smiles and looks at Nicholas
    "That’s really cute. Is that why you dragged me down here?"
    Nicholas
    "Answer my question and I’ll answer yours?"
    Belle, blushing and smiling
    "Yes, I’ll be your Valentine." he smiles and engulfs her in a hug.

    Outside of St. Luke’s
    As Bo, Maggie and Marlena look for Hope, they are unable to find her.
    Bo
    "Didn’t Vivian say she was out here?"
    Marlena
    "Yes she did but I don’t see no sign of her."
    Maggie
    "Oh no, I hope nothing has happened to her."
    Bo
    "You and me both" He says pulling out his cell phone, calling Hope.

    Inside the church, once the mourners get over their shock at Salem’s newest visitor, it’s back to business. Nicole begins’ to walk over toward Tony. Anna walks away from Kirsten, to try and stop Nicole. She catches up to her
    Anna
    "What do you think you’re doing?"
    Nicole
    "What does it look like? I am paying my respects for my grandfather."
    Anna
    "Don’t be coy with me young lady. I want you to leave now. This is not the place or time for anything stupid."
    Nicole
    "Go to hell Anna and get the hell out of my way. I have family to talk to." Nicole brushes right past Anna
    Anna
    "No damn it! This can’t be happening."
    Nicole walks up tp Tony
    Tony
    "Nicole, it’s a bit strange seeing you here."
    Nicole
    "It shouldn’t be. We are family."
    Tony
    "Excuse me?"
    Nicole
    "I’m your daughter with Marlena. Ask Anna she’ll confirm it."
    Tony's face suddenly pales as he looks at Anna and then back at Nicole, and is STUNNED!!!

    “Easy there Hope.”
    Hope turns around and sees David
    “David, I almost didn’t recognize you.”
    David
    “I bet. I’ve barely seen you since I got back here on Christmas.”
    Hope has a flashback of blowing up at the Horton House just as Mike and David came back to Salem.
    “Yeah, well things have been rough for me lately.”
    David
    “I can tell.”
    Hope
    “Look I don’t need this from you too. I came here to be in peace without some one always looking at and asking am I ok?”
    David
    “We care about you Hope. Everyone is concerned about you. This is not you. Drinking like this. Tell me what’s going on? Let me help you.”
    Hope has images of Killing Gina and nearly choking Megan to death.
    “Look, I don’t want to be bothered. Nothing is wrong with me. I wish everyone would stop treating like a child.”
    David
    “Your turning on the people who love you and care the most about you.”
    Hope
    “Go screw yourself David. You don’t know a damn thing about me.” Hope drinks her last shot of Rum and storms out the Cheating Heart. David decides to call Bo and let him know he just saw Hope.

    Nicole
    “Oh, hey mom?”
    Marlena
    “Your our of your mind.”
    Tony
    “This is madness. You! My daughter with Marlena! This some sort of sick joke.”
    Marlena
    “I’ll say. Surely I would remember how many children I gave birth too.”
    Nicole
    “Well just ask Anna. She knew for a few weeks.”
    Marlena
    “Is this true Anna?” She says approaching her
    Anna with a tear rolling down her cheek

    Mike
    “Come in.”
    Nick walks in.
    Mike “Nephew, it’s good to see you. What brings you by?”
    Nick, taking a seat.
    “I thought I’d come by and see how things are with you. Here we are, with the same last name but I barley know you.”
    Mike
    “I feel the same way.”
    Nick
    “I was thinking of attending Salem U, in the spring.”
    Mike
    “Oh yea? What do you plan on studying?”
    Nick
    I am going to study medicine. I want to be a doctor.”
    Mike
    “Well you came to the right person for some advice on that. I must say, it’s very rewarding work. I love it with a passion. Though it can get hectic and crazy and very stressful at times, I think you can handle it.”
    Nick
    “Thanks for the vote of confidence.”
    Mike
    “Anytime.”
    Nick
    “Listen, there is another reason I came to see you.”
    Mike
    “Really?”
    Nick
    “Yes, it’s about Jeremy.” Mike looks at Nick with interest upon hearing his son’s name.



    Up on Salem Hill,

    Lexie is about to enter the Dimera Mansion, with Celeste right behind her.
    Celeste, trying to convince her daughter to not move in,
    “Alexandra, I am telling you, this is not such a great idea.”
    Lexie
    “Mom, I’m sorry. I don’t have no where else to go right now. Abe doesn’t want me, he doesn’t want me to be a mother to Theo, what else can I do?”
    Celeste
    “Please darling, you can move in with me.”
    Lexie
    “That won’t look good to a court. I have to stop Abe from taking my son away from me.”
    Celeste
    “Moving into the Dimera Mansion won’t makes things any easier. This house is full of evil. Besides, Tony, Anna, Kristen, and now Peter Blake is back in town. Won’t you feel crowded?”
    Lexie
    “Not at all, it will be a great time to get to know my family.” She says as she opens the door to the mansion with her suitcase. Celeste looks up to the heavens as she rolls her eyes, She prays silently “Dear Lord, Help my darling Alexandra come to her senses and help steer her clear of this evil house”



    Back at St. Luke’s

    Tony fans Marlena as she comes too.
    Anna
    “See what you did?”
    Nicole
    “I did nothing but tell the truth. You were the one who didn’t want me to tell my parents.”
    Marlena
    “What? Is this true Anna?”
    Anna
    “Marlena, it wasn’t like that. I just know you and Tony are dealing with so much right now I didn’t think this was the right time to drop a bomb like this.’
    Marlena
    “How dare you!?” She wsays walking up in her face “Who do you think you are?”
    Anna
    “Marlena please I was only trying to help.”
    Marlena
    “Trying to help? I think not. You didn’t want a mother to be reunited with her long lost child. That’s called treachery. I don’t need you deciding what’s best in my life Anna Dimera. Have you forgotten that I am a therapist?”
    Anna
    “Marlena, I was not trying to be underhanded. Honestly.”
    Marlena than slaps Anna across the face.

    Mike
    “So you want to talk to me about my son?”
    Nick
    “Yes, I hope it’s ok.”
    Mike
    “Were family, of course it’s ok. So what’s going on with Jeremy? You seem to know more about my own son then I do.”
    Nick
    “That’s just it. I know you two aren’t on the best of terms right now.”
    Mike
    “That’s an understatement. He’s shutting me out. I don’t know how to reach him. I don’t know how to get my son to open up and talk to me. “
    Nick
    “You’ve been in and out of his life for years. He just want you to be a father to him.”
    Mike
    “That’s what I’ve been trying to do. He won’t open up to me and tell me how he feels.”
    Nick
    “Jeremy feels abandoned by you. Reach out to him.” Nick gets up and leaves Mike’s office. Mike stares off into space, thinking of how he’s going to reach out to his son.



    Chez Rouge

    Abe enters the dining room and Maggie greets him.
    Maggie
    “Thanks for coming. I certainly need some good company right now.”
    Abe
    “I almost for got, you’re coming from Stefano’s funeral. Did that go off with out a hitch?” He asks as he and Maggie grabs seats at a table.
    Maggie
    “This is Stefano Dimera we’re talking about. Of course things went awry.”
    Abe
    “What happened?”
    Maggie
    Nicole showed up and announced she is Marlena and Tony’s missing child.”
    Abe
    “Nicole, the missing child of Marlena and Tony? I don’t think anything surprises me anymore as far as the Dimera’s are concerned.”
    Maggie
    “You’re right about that. Enough about that dreadful. man Tell me how are you?”
    Abe
    “As well as can be expected. There’s a big snowstorm coming in a few days. It’s been kind of hectic getting The Salem Red Cross, and Emergency Services and the Salem PD to coordinate efforts for the expected calamity of this storm.”

    Maggie
    “Sounds pretty bad.”
    Abe
    “The forecast is calling for significant ice accumulation. It‘s being called the perfect storm. It‘s really going to have us bogged down for days, maybe weeks”
    Maggie
    “Oh my” She then orders her food as the waiter approaches. Then the waiter takes Abe’s order.
    Maggie
    “Have you talked to a lawyer yet about custody of Theo?”
    Abe
    “Actually yes I have. We are meeting soon.”
    Maggie
    “I really feel sorry for little Theo. He’s really going to be the victim here.”
    Abe
    “Maybe for the time being. But in the long run, Theo would be better off with Lexie. I don’t want a lying slut raising my son.”
    Maggie
    “When push comes to shove, I don’t think she will bow down easily. You see how she went berserk with Isaac.”
    Abe
    “I say let her. She’ll only hang herself in the long run.” He says as the waiter brings their food and they begin to eat.
    Abe
    “You know Maggie, I really do enjoy your company.”

    “I feel the same way. It’s like a breath of fresh air.” They smile and admire one another.

    “Come on sis. This is not like you. You’re one of the most aggressive person’s I know. Something is really bothering you. I can tell. I am your brother and I am going to protect you. Just please tell me what’s going on?”
    She doesn’t respond. He walks up behind her and grabs her shoulders, giving her a reassuring feeling,
    “Does it have something to do with Tony? Did he hurt you?”
    Kristen, turning to look at him
    “No damn it, now just drop it! Please! I told you I am ok. Nothing is bothering me.”

    “Ji’ Min wants to meet with everyone that’s in Stefano’s will.”
    Kristen
    “Please tell me it’s not at the mansion?”
    Peter
    “Why, did something happened there between you and Tony?”
    Kristen, getting angry that he brought Tony up again,
    “You said you were going to leave it alone! Just get the hell out Peter! I want to be alone.”
    Peter
    “Krissy please don’t do this.”
    Kristen
    “Get out Peter. Just get the hell out!” Peter, not wanting too, but not wanting to push her any farther, obeys her wishes and turns around and leaves her room. Once Peter closes the door, Kristen breaks into a storm of tears, sinking to the floor.

    Anna
    “Can we please talk?”
    Tony
    “I don’t think we have any thing to talk about. I don’t know if I can trust you. It’s know telling what else you’re not telling me. What else don’t you want me to know about Anna?” He says getting up and, approaching her.
    Anna
    “Tony, You have to understand. I did it for us. I didn’t want to lose you to Nicole or Marlena.”
    Tony
    “My God! Do you hear yourself woman? What are you turning into? I have a child to get to know, I have lost time to make up for and you’re here worrying about losing me? Didn’t you believe in our love?”
    Anna
    “Tony I do but-”
    Tony
    “There is no but. Anna I love you and me having a child with Marlena would not have changed that.”
    Anna
    “What do you mean would not have? You’re saying that in past tense.”
    Tony
    “Correct darling. I want you to get your things and get the hell out of my house.”
    Anna
    “Tony no! Please!”
    Tony, getting angry and hollering at her
    “Get the hell out Anna, Don’t make me call security. It’s over!”
    Anna
    “No! You don’t mean that. This is Vince, this is not Tony speaking to me.”
    Tony
    “Is it? You didn’t believe in our love so how do you know who I am right now?”

    Steve opens the door and is shocked to see his niece Samantha
    Steve
    “Hey Sami. A little bit surprised seeing you here. Want to come in and take your coat off f and stay for a while?”
    Sami doesn’t respond at first. She’s breathing heavily and she’s looking at Steve with hate filled eyes
    “No I don’t want to take my coat off and stay awhile. I want you to take your coat off in jail. I don’t understand why you’re not rotting away yet, for killing EJ.”
    Steve
    “Sami, I keep telling you it was self defense.”
    Sami
    “What about me? What am I supposed to do? Who do I have to come home too? Who can I share my life with huh Steve? You took the one thing that meant the most to me in this world. And yet here you are running around here free to kill more people.”
    Steve
    “I’m not a killer Sami.”
    Sami, shedding a tear
    “I will never forgive you for this. And I swear to God If the law won’t make you pay for taking EJ away from me that I sure as hell will make you pay.”
    Kayla walks out from the bathroom. She smiles when she sees Sami, thinking Sami is here to wave the white flag and forgive Steve.
    “Sami Hi, I am so glad you came.” Kayla stops talking when she sees Sami pulling a gun out from her purse and aims it at Steve’s chest.
    Kayla
    “Sami, what are you doing?”
    Steve
    “Sami come on. Put that toy away. You’re not going to use that on your old uncle Steve. Let’s talk about this.”
    Sami
    “No I don’t want to talk. I want to kill. I want to kill you like you killed EJ. Then maybe Kayla will truly know how it feels to have someone they love ripped from their lives.” Sami cocks the gun as Steve and Kayla both get nervous.



    Bo and Hope’s House

    Bo brings out the hot cocoa to Hope as he sits on the couch. They sit on the couch and listen to the fire wood burning in the fire place. They both sip on their cocoa.
    Bo
    “It has been so long since we spent some quality time together.”
    Hope
    “It really has Brady. In fact I don’t remember the last time we did this.” He holds her as she lays down on his lap.
    Bo
    “I love you fancy face.”
    Hope, looking up into his eyes, giving him a peck on the lips
    “I love you too Brady.”
    Bo
    “So how was your day? I haven’t seen you since Stefano’s funeral.”
    Hope, having a flashback of drinking
    “My day was fine. I was just out riding around. I just can’t deal with everything.”
    Bo
    “You mean Shawn and Ms. Horton?”
    Hope
    “It’s like something inside of me died when they did. Bo, I haven’t been the same since.”
    Bo
    “I know. But I want you to know, that I am here fancy face. You can come to me and talk to me. That’s what I am here for. For better or worse.”
    Hope, shedding a tear
    “I know Bo. It’s just been so hard dealing with-” She pauses, looking away as she has a flash back of smothering Gina to death, then of bashing Megan in the head with a bottle then all the binge drinking that she has been doing as of late.
    Bo
    “What is it Hope? I can tell something else is bothering you? Just tell me what it is. We can get through this together.”
    Hope
    “I don’t know Bo. I’ve made such a mess of things.”
    Bo
    “Is that why you have been drinking?”
    Hope, now looking at him
    “I am so sick and tired of hearing about me drinking. One or two bottles of beer is not called drinking. “
    Bo
    “One or two bottles? Come on Hope, Nicole Walker found you past out drunk on the pier. You have a problem. You need some help. Vivian told us she saw you past out drunk on the lawn at the church.”
    Hope
    “Did she? Since when do you listen to Vivian Alamain, a woman who once took herb’s and spices and buried your ex Carly Manning alive?”
    Bo
    “Answer the question. Were you drinking at Saint Luke’s?”
    Hope
    “If I was?”
    Bo
    “Hope come on. At church. Have you lost all sense of self respect?”
    Hope
    “So now your judging me?” Hope slaps him. Bo rubs his cheek
    “That’s all you have been doing this last few weeks. Believing what everyone has to say about me. Gossiping to Marlena and Maggie about my drinking all the time. I don’t need that. I already have two parents and if you haven’t noticed, my father is already dead. I need you to be my husband and not my father. If you’re so worried my drinking, then take this hot cocoa and shove it up your ass” She says grabbing the hot cocoa and throwing it on Bo. Bo, hollers out as the piping hot sweetness hits his face and hands. Hope grabs her coat and leaves a burning Bo behind. Bo is at a loss for words, stunned that Hope just did what she did.

    -Deep in a hidden section of the rarely-visited DiMera Mansion, two figures stand beside Stefano's comatose body, who is still attached to many tubes and machines. The female figure runs her hands over him, and chuckles evilly. She says to her companion that in mere hours, this scheme of theirs will pay off, and they will have all the DiMera Power...she goes on to say that no matter what they pull, Celeste, Vivian, Victor, and any others never had a chance of being in Stefano's will and having *any* power. She then says:

    Woman: We are the only true children Father has left...you and me, ELVIS.
    ELVIS BANKS: So true...Tony is not a true DiMera, Megan just pines for that cop, that Hawk guy is Lord knows where, Kristen and Peter are pitiful failures, EJ is dead, Lexie is a goody goody...the only sibling I have is you.....RENEE!

    The woman slowly removes her mask over her face to reveal...the VERY-much alive...RENEE DUMONDE DIMERA!!!!!!!!!

    Back at The Salem Inn

    Kayla, looking at her niece pointing a gun at her husband
    “Sami please don’t do this. We can talk about this. There is no need for this.”
    Steve
    “No, ..no, it’s ok Sweetness. Sami is angry. And she has every right to be.”
    Sami
    “You don’t know nothing about me. You don’t know what kind of pain I’m in right now. You don’t know what it feels like to have the person you love killed by your own so called family.”
    Kayla, pleading with Sami, slowly walking over to her
    “Sami, we are family. What happened with Steve was out of self defense.( Tara can you insert the reason why Steve Killed EJ in the first place in this spot.) He was only trying to defend himself.”
    Sami
    “I don’t want to hear that. EJ was the best thing that has ever happened to me and you took that away from me Steve! So now it’s time to repay the favor” Kayla hollers out as Steve tries to grab the gun from Sami. In the struggle for the gun, the gun goes off……

    Episode:230, Hope Meets A New Ally!
    Written by: ML Cooks & Tara Smith

    In the basement of the DiMera Mansion,

    Renee DiMera and Elvis Banks are sitting down watching TV monitors. They both smile, as they see all the guest arrive for their father’s will reading.
    Elvis
    “If only these idiots knew that Stefano was really alive and well.”
    Renee
    “I know what you mean.” She says getting up and looking at her father, hooked up to heart monitors and ventilators. She continues,” Soon father, you will be good and well, and you can resume leading the Dimera Dynasty. That’s where you belong. And Elvis and I will be right behind you.”
    Elvis
    “Indeed. When dear father awakes, Salem will never be the same again.” He says with a smile.

    Just as Vivian is about to enter the DiMera Mansion, Valentine calls out to her from behind.
    Vivian, turning around to look at her
    “Oh bloody hell. “
    Valentine
    “Now that is no way to talk to your much younger and sexier sister.”
    Vivian
    “If you would stop acting like a low class floozy, I would treat you have way respectfully.”
    Valentine
    “Like you’re the Virgin Mary?”
    Vivian
    “Compared to you? So just when did you and Stefano, …..-God, it makes me sick to even say it.”
    Valentine
    “That’s none of your damn business. Just know we shared something special, and it was something neither one of us will ever forget . Rest his soul. Even beyond the grave, I can still feel him.”
    Vivian
    “Enough already. If I wanted to hear about some sordid fairytale, I’d watch Desperate Housewives.”
    Valentine
    “Why are you nasty? You’re miserable. It’s no wonder why you’re lonely. I talked to Forrest and Nicholas. They’ve told me everything.”
    Vivian
    “I don’t have time for this.” She says turning around and entering the house. Valentine hears Marlena and Nicole walking up behind her.
    Valentine
    “Well look at the newly reunited mother and daughter. duo”
    Marlena
    “Holiday is it?”
    Valentine
    “No, It’s Valentine.”
    Marlena
    “Oh my, I’m so sorry. So you’re Vivian’s sister?”
    Valentine
    “I know it’s hard to believe as old as she is, she has a much younger sister. But yes, she’s my sister. But she won’t admit that.” She forces a tear and pulls out a napkin and dabs her eye.
    “She treats me like a black sheep”
    Marlena
    “Oh dear. I am so sorry to hear that. “
    Nicole, rolling her eyes, seeing right through Valentine’s act
    “Give me a break. I can see right through those fake tears.”
    Marlena, stunned
    “Nicole? What’s the matter with you?”
    Nicole
    “She’s fake. I can see right through her. Look, I’ll meet you inside.” Nicole walks off
    Valentine
    “Well I see some one needs some home training. How dare she speak to me that way? I hope you knock some sense into her. My tears are not fake. I will not be insulted like that.”
    Marlena, embarrassed that a daughter of her’s would act in that rude manner, not even Sami acts that way.
    “I’m sorry about that. Let’s go inside. The weather is getting worse.”



    Hope is walking the streets of Salem, drinking Tequila straight from the bottle. Hope begins to dance around in the snow. She laughs and feels good as the alcohol streams into her blood. Hope empties the bottle in her mouth and throws it on the ground. Hope feels no pain, no worries, no sorrows, no guilt, she feels as if nothing is wrong. Drinking her angst away, she decides to lay in the snow and make a snow angel.



    Midtown Salem,
    Marlena’s Pent House

    Belle is applying makeup to her face in the bathroom mirror. The door bell rings. She opens it and smiles when she sees Nicholas.
    “Wow, you look amazing” He says handing her a dozen of white roses.
    Belle, blushing
    “Thank you. These are so beautiful. You didn’t have too.”
    Nicholas
    “I know I didn’t but I wanted too.”
    Belle puts the roses in a vase and adds water to them.
    Nicholas
    “So are you excited for our first date?”
    Belle
    “Yes and a little bit nervous.”
    Nicholas
    “Don’t be nervous. I promise you, we will have a good time, and I’ll even have you home by 10.”
    Belle, chuckling
    “How sweet. I heard on the radio there’s a snow storm or something?”
    Nicholas
    “Nothing major. It’s just some flurries outside. Besides, I drive an Escalade. A little snow won’t stop us.”
    Belle, grabbing her coat
    “Ok let’s go then.”



    Hope is done making her snow angels. Having wore off her buzz, from all the energy she put into making angels and dancing in the snow , she gets up and looks in her purse. She frantically searches it. She takes every single article out her purse. She opens it up and shakes it vigorously.
    “Damn it. Where is my money? I need a drink!” Off in the distance some one makes their way towards Hope.
    “Who’s there?”



    Abe’s House.

    Abe is tucking Theo in bed.
    “Good night son.”
    Theo
    “Good night daddy.”
    Abe smiles at his son and as he is about to turn the light off, Theo stops him
    “I miss mommy.” Abe pauses, knowing his son misses his mother. Abe wonders how does he tell his son he’s fighting to keep his mother out of his life forever. He tries to give an honest answer to the question, something a 4 year old can comprehend
    “Mommy, won’t be around much little guy.”
    Theo
    “Why? Why are you and mommy fighting?”
    Abe, again, is at a loss for words. He doesn’t want to break his son’s heart. Abe doesn’t know what to do.
    “Get some sleep Theo, I promise we’ll talk about it in the morning. And after that, we can go outside and play in the snow. How’s that sound?”
    Theo
    “allrright!” He says cheering.
    Abe
    “Good night son.” Abe turns off the light and closes the door. Once the door is closed, he wipes a tear that he held in his eyes, not wanting to let his son see him cry. Abe thinks of how, the family he wanted with Lexie will be no more. No more Lexie. The door bell rings. Abe looks at his watch, not expecting visitors, on a night like this, especially with the snow storm wrecking havoc in Salem. He opens the door and is surprised to Maggie
    Abe
    “Maggie, what a surprise. Come in, come in.”
    Maggie
    “I brought you some cookies.”
    Abe
    “Thank you. Take your coat off, sit down. I can’t believe you came all the way here to see me in this snow storm.”
    Maggie
    “Oh, it’s not that bad out there yet. Here try a cookie.” Abe sits down on the couch next to Maggie as they both eat a cookie.
    Abe
    “I’m really glad you came by Maggie.”



    The person approaches Hope.
    Hope
    “I said who are you?”
    “It’s ok mama. I have no ill intention. I come bearing gifts. I got what you need.”
    Hope
    “Who are you?”
    “They call me Suga.”
    Hope
    “I’ve never seen you in these parts before.”
    Suga
    “You’re right. I’m just passing by.”
    Hope
    “You said you got what I need. You got a drink?”
    Suga
    “I got something even better” She pulls out a pipe, a lighter, and a bag of crack.
    Hope
    “What’s that?”
    Suga
    “Some get right. A lil crack. 10 times better than drinks.”
    Hope
    “I don’t know about that.”
    Suga
    “No troubles ma. Leave your worries behind.” Suga resonates a deep chord within Hope upon hearing “Leave your worries behind.” Hope instantly has flashes of smothering Gina to death, her son Shawn dying, her grandma Horton dying, her father dying racing through her mind. So much sadness, she wants to escape from it all. Hope now contemplates on taking her descent into madness to a new low. Has it come to this?……

    -At Salem Place Apartments, the gunshot manages to just miss Kayla and it hit’s a now-shattered vase. Steve finally manages to grab the gun from Sami, and yells that THAT is why he had to kill EJ. Because EJ kept firing a gun wildly over and over, and he wouldn’t stop. He tells Sami that if she keeps doing that, she’ll get herself killed soon. Sami yells in disgust:

    Sami: Is that a DEATH THREAT?!

    -At the Titan building, Bo is in Victor’s office and Victor is pouring them both a glass of Champagne. Victor thanks him for coming to this party for him tonight on such short notice, and Victor says that Celeste couldn’t come because of Stefano’s will reading, and he really doesn’t have any other friends in Salem. Bo says that he was glad to come, but on the inside feels odd about speaking to his biological father after so long.

    -Forrest and Billie are on the main level of the Titan building where the party is going on for Victor’s announcement about the new face of Bella Magazine, and Billie asks Forrest to remind her why they are here again when this is a Titan event. Forrest explains that Titan is Alamain’s arch-competitor, so he needs to see that Victor has in store. Billie sighs as she says this place, not to mention the whole fashion industry, reminds her so much of her mother. Forrest then quickly says:

    Forrest: Hey, if you don’t want to be here, we can leave and I can find out about Bella later.
    Billie: Normally, I’d probably want to leave, you know? But with you here…I don’t at all.

    -Anna runs onto the grounds of the DiMera Mansion in the quickly-falling snow, and she rushes to the front door and she bangs on it while she shivers due to the cold, and yells “LET ME IN! SOMEONE LET ME IN, I’M FREEZING!” and Tony answers the door with a sigh and tells her to get the hell off of his grounds, and Anna tells him that she NEEDS to talk to him and Marlena, and Tony then says not a chance. Anna says in shock:

    Anna: You really are turning into Vince, aren’t you?

    -Vivian is in a corner of the living room of the DiMera Mansion, watching while Marlena, Celeste, and Lexie sit down and Kristen and Peter sit across from them alone, and she scowls as Valentine walks over to her. She asks what the hell she wants now, and Valentine says that she doesn’t seem to be very interested in the will reading tonight, and Vivian says that there is no reason to anymore. Valentine then says:

    Valentine: Oh, afraid you aren’t going to be in Stefano’s will?
    Vivian: Oh I have a feeling I’ll be in it alright, but when all of my foes are assembled in the same room I’m not just going to go speak to them.
    Valentine: Oh, please. I can see the look on your face. A face of worry, dissappointment maybe? Vivvy honey, I think you are just throwing a fit that you know Stefano will give all his power to ME. Even if he did give anything to you, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy it for long.
    Vivian: Excuse me? What are you saying?
    Valentine: I’m saying, sis…that I know your secrets…I know about your crimes…
    Vivian: What crimes? I haven’t done one single crime since the nineties!
    Valentine: I beg to differ…Mysterious Woman.

    -Hope tells Suga that she may have drank a few times but she is no smoker, and Suga says that it’ll help her a lot. Suga says:

    Suga: I can tell you’ve got problems on your mind, ma. This stuff right here that I gots will make it just go away.

    Hope stares at the pipe and the crack, and flashes back to when Bo told her about her Gran’s death at the hospital a few months ago:

    Bo strokes Hope’s cheek slowly with the other hand that is free, and he tries not to choke up as he finally tells the truth “Hope……” he starts “Your aunt Maggie………asked Marlena to check on Alice last night……..and Marlena did, but…she found that....Alice passed away………”

    Bo looks away after the last word comes out of his mouth, as several tears run down his face. Hope continues to stare, no emotion anywhere. She is completely silent, and for several minutes silence is between the two. “No…..” she finally says, in a soft tone as tears run down her cheeks as well “Bo, no……”

    Bo finally looks back at her and takes her other hand and squeezes them tight, as he looks at her and tries to say something “It’s…..true….her body is here……it was through natural causes……”

    Hope merely looks at him, not sure what to think. She stares back into his eyes and knows it is true. “NO!” she screams “NO NO NO NO NO!”

    Bo pulls her into an embrace, and they both cry. “I’m so sorry, Fancy Face…..” Bo slowly says

    As Hope stares at it more, she next flashes back to when she killed Gina after she verbally blew up at her in the hospital in Italy back in November:

    Hope walks around Gina’s bed and tearfully says “I lost my Gran. I lost my sons. I lost my life to you for a time, and at one point even thought I was YOU years ago, which took away even more time in my life! You could have come forward and revealed who I was at first but no, you had to scheme to get your beloved Bo! You have RUINED MY LIFE!”

    A smirk slowly begins to form on Gina’s face, and Hope finally screams out very loudly in anger it echoes throughout the halls, and she jumps at the life support machine and presses the activate/de-activate button several times.

    Suga asks Hope what she wants to do, and as tears stream down Hope’s face she tells her she has to end this because its tearing her apart and she then tells Suga:

    Hope: Just give me that damn pipe…give me all of it…I may not use it yet but…Lord knows that if it does what it says you do then I need it…

    Episode#231: The Secret Storm BEGINS!

    -Jan is at her family’s business company, Spears Inc.’s main building that is in the middle of Salem. The company is a fashion company like Titan and Alamain, and a popular one but not as popular as Titan or Alamain. Jan is signing some papers, and suddenly there is a knock on her office door and she says “Come in.” and Lucas opens the door. Jan smiles and asks him what he’s doing here, and Lucas says that the weather is getting pretty bad so he wanted to make sure she and his little cousin were alright. Jan grins as she looks at her stomach, and says that in only a month or two she’ll be giving birth, and comments that its amazing.

    -Maggie tells Abe that she’s glad to be here, and that she’s enjoyed seeing him lately. She says that even though Julie is family and she loves her dearly, she needs more friends than her. She then goes on to say that ever since Mickey died…she has felt a bit lonely, even with half of her family living with her. Abe says he understands, and that without Lexie…it can get lonely to him too without anyone to talk to except police officers, but that’s mostly business subjects. Maggie half-jokes that it must have been fate that they started talking to each other more.

    -Nicholas and Belle are driving through Salem in Nicholas’s car, and Belle comments as she looks out the window of the passenger seat that the snow is really starting to come down out there, and Nicholas once again assures her that they’ll be fine. Belle says with a smile that she trusts him. Nicholas decides to make small talk and asks how she’s been lately, and Belle answers:

    Belle: As good as I can be, I guess. My father is catatonic, and now my mother now has this hidden child that turns out to be Nicole Walker of all people.
    Nicholas: Heh, you sound like that’s a bad thing?
    Belle: Well…I know that you probably don’t know too much about Salem these days since you only recently came to town…but Nicole Walker isn’t the best woman in the world. She’s worse than my sister Sami. She slept with my brothers Eric and Brady, schemed her way into marrying Victor Kiriakis and then helped my rival Jan Spears try to kill him…and those deeds aren’t even all of what she’s done.
    Nicholas: I see…well you don’t have to worry about her tonight…because its just us, together…

    -Renee and Elvis, in the basement of the DiMera Mansion, mainly watch Tony and Anna argue at the doorway of the mansion. Elvis asks Renee why she is so interested in Tony and Anna, and Renee says that she has been waiting for Tony to blast Anna like this for twenty five years. She continues to explain to Elvis that Anna was always her biggest foe, and flashes back to at her party back in 1983, shortly before her “murder”, how she told Anna that she hated her most of all…

    -Tony snaps to her that he is not and never will turn into Vince, but Anna says that she should’ve known that he would start acting like him after the integration process started. Anna shoves her way past Tony and walks into the entryway of the mansion, and says that she won’t give up on him this easy. Tony tells her that after what she did to Nicole, Marlena, and him…they can never be together again. Anna says:

    Anna: Tony, I love you! I can’t just let our relationship go! I understand why you would be upset and you have every right to be…but I just couldn’t tell you that the town’s biggest tramp was your daughter with another woman!
    Tony: Don’t EVER say that about my daughter again, do you understand me?

    Tony suddenly begins to clutch his forehead, and Anna yells:

    Anna: Tony…wait no…please don’t let Vince come out…I didn’t mean to upset you…
    Vince: Too late, honey. Vince is here and he needs to talk to you NOW!

    -Vivan growls to Valentine that she doesn’t know what the hell she is talking about, and Valentine hisses “Oh please. I know how you came back to Salem in 2006 and stabbed Chelsea Benson, poisoned Kayla Brady, blackmailed Sami Brady, and everything else in-between us.” Vivian tells Valentine that she has enough to worry about with Celeste Perrault, she doesn’t need to put up with her and her lies. As Vivian stomps off, Valentine says “Celeste Perrault, eh?” and looks at Celeste…

    -At the Salem Place Apartments, Steve tells Sami that it was far from a death threat, and it was a simple warning. He tells Sami that it’s a big world out there and she could get in serious trouble if she keeps waving a gun around. Sami yells “You know what, I’m not a kid? And sometimes I have to wave a gun around when I’m near a killer like you.” Kayla intervenes and tells them both to just calm down, and Sami says she’s out of there but Steve grabs her arm and tells her they aren’t done yet until they end this once and for all.

    -Suga tells Hope she’s makin’ the right decision, and as Hope gives Suga some cash Suga hands over the pipe, lighter, and crack. Hope shudders a little as she looks at it, and says to herself this had better work. Suga tells Hope to forget what she might have been taught about crack, it’ll take all her pain away. Suga tells Hope that if she needs more, she might just be around. Hope nods, and as Suga walks away, Hope turns around and plans to head to the Titan building…

    *Life in Salem Opening*

    -Victor asks Bo how he has been, and Bo replies as good as he can be., and explains to Victor about Hope’s drinking problems. Victor points out that its odd that Hope started drinking recently, when Alice’s and Shawn’s deaths were months ago. Bo nods, and says that this started shortly after they returned from Italy in November. Victor asks if Gina’s death had anything to do with it, and Bo says he doesn’t know but it could be true since she did kill their son…but he doesn’t get why it would affect her deeper than Shawn or Alice’s deaths would.

    -Forrest tells Billie that her coming with him made being at this Titan party enjoyable as well, and Billie smiles as she kisses him on the cheek. Forrest asks what that was for, and she shrugs and says with a chuckle she just felt like doing it. Forrest pours her a drink, and then asks:

    Forrest: Billie…do you have any experience in the fashion business?
    Billie: A bit…why do you ask?
    Forrest: Well, since your mother has passed on…it left a position vacant at Alamain, and it needs to be filled quickly. I was wondering if you’d like to take your mother’s place.

    -Anna tells Vince to leave her, Tony, and everyone else in this town the hell alone. Vince tells Anna that it has gotten rare for them to see each other, and sadly Tony is winning the battle against him, but he’s not giving up yet. Vince suddenly pulls Anna into a dark corner, and whispers:

    Vince: I am not here about that, I simply need to tell you something. That Nicole Walker fellow…I hope you’re not believing that she’s really Tony and Marlena’s daughter.
    Anna: Oh please, there were DNA results and everything.
    Vince: You stupid idiot! DNA tests mean nothing in Salem! And Nicole Walker is a scheming bitch. It is Jan Spears, as I told you on the island. I was the one who got Marlena pregnant, I was the one who watched the child be born, I was the one who gave her away to that Spears woman!
    Anna: So you’re saying that Nicole schemed this up? You’re a lying bastard, Vince…but somehow I want to believe you.

    Anna looks at Nicole, who is sitting down in the living room of the DiMera Mansion, and looks back to Vince and tells him she wants to expose the scheming bitch.

    -Sami screams and finally yells “You know what, fine?!?! Forget it. I am wasting my time here anyway. I’ll just forget both of you if you forget me. We’ll leave it at that.” and Steve tells her that he’s sorry for killing EJ, but once again claims it had to be done. Sami then says:

    Sami: Again, forget it. I’ll try not to hold some crazy grudge against you, Steve, but don’t think we’re just going to be all buddy buddy. I won’t avenge his death like he asked, as much as that hurts me, but I’m not going to talk to either of you. Not at all.

    Sami turns and stomps off, and Steve sighs and Kayla tells him sadly there is nothing they can do now, and they just have to let it be. Steve tells Kayla he knows but he still wishes there is something they could do. Kayla tells him they just have to put all this behind them, and move on with their lives and they’ve done all they can do. Steve reluctantly agrees, and Kayla hugs him, as someone watches them from the snowy window…

    The figure says “Well of course you can’t avenge EJ’s death, Samantha…that’s my job.”

    The person turns to reveal…HELENA CASSADINE!!!! Helena chuckles evilly as she goes over to a back door and slowly enters the apartments…

    -Sami is able to get out to her car, and she starts it and drives off, heading back to the Salem Inn, and a few tears come out of her eyes as she whispers “EJ, I am so so sorry…I just couldn’t do it…forgive me…” and she continues to cry, and soon he manages to drive up to the Salem Inn(which is not far from Salem Place Apartments), and then she goes inside and heads to her room…

    -Hope arrives at the Titan building, and she goes inside and heads to the Women’s restroom on the main level of the building. She takes out the pipe and the crack, and is about to take out the lighter, but she finally gives in and breaks down, dropping it all on the floor. She becomes hysterical and says in a low tone “I can’t believe its come to this…” and before she can pick the pipe up again, suddenly the lights go out…

    -The whole Titan building’s power seems to be out, and back in the party area Billie hasn’t had a chance to answer Forrest’s question and asks Forrest if he’s still there and Forrest responds that he’s right beside her, and Billie says she wonders what the hell just happened. Forrest tells her that it might just be a small issue, because of the storm. Billie then tells him she hopes its not getting too bad…

    -Bo tells Victor, in the dark, that the electricity must be konked out from the snow. Victor tells him that his office phone runs on a back-up battery, and he’ll see if he can get anyone downstairs to see what is going on. He lights a candle to see, and then picks up the phone and dials a number, but there is no dial tone. Victor mutters “damnit”, and Bo tells him they can just go downstairs to find other people. Victor tells Bo no they can’t…because they are alone on this level of the building, and the only way down is through the elevators, which are obviously broken.

    -After Jan finishes her papers and she and Lucas get onto the elevator, it starts its descent down onto the parking garage level, however it stops. Jan asks what happened, and Lucas says he doesn’t know and grabs a phone and tries to call, but he can’t reach anyone. He wonders if the electricity might be out…

    -At the DiMera Mansion, everyone looks around as they start to hear a strong blowing, and also creaking from the roof. They can hear the snow come down harder and harder outside, and Marlena says she hopes that everything’s alright. Peter says that maybe before they start the reading they can check the weather, but as he walks over to the tv he looks up as the creaking gets louder and louder. He wonders to himself whats going on up there, and suddenly as he starts to see…the roof BEGIN TO CAVE IN! His eyes widen and he yells “EVERYONE RUN!” but right after the words escape Peter’s mouth, the roof…COLLAPSES!

    People scream and try to dart off, but the wind and the impact of the collapse push people into other rooms. Marlena and Kristen fall into one of the bedrooms, Lexie is shoved into the basement by the impact, Vivian and Peter are shoved into another bedroom, Valentine and Celeste are pushed into the library, Vince and Anna are thrown into the study, Ji’Min is shoved outside, and Nicole is pushed into Stefano’s old office by herself…

    Episode#232: Trapped!

    -Belle and Nicholas continue to drive through a snowy Salem in Nicholas’s escalade, and Belle comments that the snow just keeps getting more and more intense. Nicholas says yeah, and with how its coming down now he’s not even sure if they can keep going. After a little more driving as he examines the roads, he groans and says they’ll have to pull over.

    -In the elevator at Spears Industries, Lucas sighs and says there’s nothing he can do. Jan yells “Damnit!” and pounds on the door, breathing heavily and screaming for someone to help them. Lucas tells Jan she shouldn’t get too stressed out over this and its not good for the baby, but Jan tells him she doesn’t do well in confined spaces for too long, and is claustrophobic. Lucas says that hopefully this will be fixed soon and they can get out of here.

    -Hope yells in disgust and anger “Oh what the hell happened now?” at the power going out and tries to pawn around the floor for the pipe, but only finds the lighter. She uses it to see where the crack and the pipe is, and once she spots them she picks up the crack and sighs…

    -After the roof over the living room collapsed at the DiMera Mansion, it blocked all other rooms from being able to be exited. In the bedroom where Vivian and Peter are, Vivian asks Peter how on earth the roof collapsed when this is one of the biggest mansions in Salem. Peter answers that while it is one of the biggest mansions in Salem, its not the strongest, and was built back in the 1800’s, so it is not the most stable, and unfortunately its looking like they might be stuck for quite awhile.

    -Kristen is breathing heavily in the room where she and Marlena are trapped, and has yet to even notice that Marlena is in there. She keeps muttering to herself “What to do what to do…” while rubbing her temples and with all the stress she even sobs a little. Marlena sighs and says “Kristen?” and Kristen jumps at hearing her voice, and looks at Marlena and says:

    Kristen: Oh dear God…not you.

    *ATTENTION: NEW LIS OPENING, MADE BY LIS CO-EXECUTIVE PRODUCER/CO-HEADWRITER ML COOKS! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo2A7rZhZGA *

    -In the DiMera Mansion’s study, Anna says to Vince that this is just great. Vince tells her its fitting, and it gives them a chance to chat. Anna yells that she doesn’t WANT to chat with someone as disgusting as him, Vince grabs her arm and tells her that his time is almost up so he has to get his final word to her in!

    -Jan continues to breath heavily inside the elevator at Spears Industries, and Lucas clutches her hand to try to calm her down. He again tells her none of this is good for her or the baby, and Jan argues that she can’t help it, and suddenly yells “OW! My stomach! Lucas, it’s the baby!”
    -Vivian tells Peter she can’t afford to be stuck for “quite awhile”. She says that she needs to hear what is in Stefano’s will! Peter tells her that that’s obviously not going to happen now, and she scowls and says she hates men like him, and Peter points out that men like him are the exact men that she gets obsessed with.

    -Marlena says yes, its her. She says she hates being stuck in here as much as Kristen does, but unfortunately that is how everything transpired. Kristen tells Marlena to just stay the hell away from her, and she’ll stay away from Marlena. Marlena sighs and says:

    Marlena: You know Kristen we both loathe each other, but we should make this better than that whole Secret Room disaster n 1997 and try to actually get along.
    Kristen: Oh please. I hate you and this whole world now more than ever. Every single person I know except my brother is practically demented, and I don’t mean just you so don’t go spouting off rants about how I am out to get you and out to hate you and only you.
    Marlena: Now what makes you say all of that?

    -At the Salem Inn, the lights keep flickering and Sami groans and says that this just makes her evening even worse. She stomps into her room, and sees someone sitting at her desk with the chair turned to where she can’t see their face. She asks who the hell they are and what they’re doing here as she slowly grabs a bat, and the person turns around in the chair and says “Oh Sami, you wouldn’t want to hit me now would you? We go way back…”

    Sami’s eyes widen and she says:

    Sami: No…it can’t be…this has to be a trick…IT CAN’T BE…YOU’RE STAN!

    The camera pans to reveal Sami’s previous other persona, Stan, sitting in the chair grinning devilishly…

    Episode#233: Stan?!

    -Valentine and Celeste are in the DiMera Library, and Celeste mutters that she just has to be stuck with another one of Stefano’s whores. Valentine tells Celeste to watch her mouth, because she has some information that might be useful to her. Celeste tells Valentine she knows all the DiMera secrets, so there’s nothing that could possibly interest her. Valentine then says:

    Valentine: Oh no, Darrrrrrrling as you say, this is about your new rival: My sister, Vivian.

    -Inside the stuck Spears Elevator, Lucas asks Jan if the baby is alright, and as Jan falls back onto the elevator wall she says she thinks so, but her stomach is in great pain, and Lucas says it’s the anxiety getting to the baby. He tells her to think of Shawn, and how he would also want her to be calm for their baby together. Jan sighs and says he’s right, and tries to breathe in and out…

    -Inside one of the bedrooms at the DiMera Mansion, Kristen says “Forget it.” and gets up and shoves past Marlena, and in anger pushes a bunch of books off of a shelf. She screams, and Marlena wonders to herself if this time, Kristen is truly hurting due to something. Marlena slowly puts a hand on Kristen’s shoulder, and asks her what is truly wrong, deep down.

    -At the Salem Inn, Sami shrieks at STAN sitting in a chair, and says that he has to be someone like Helena, Alan Harris, or someone trying to trick her! Stan stands and slowly caresses her cheek, and says that incase she didn’t know, he’s an actual person! And he is here, in the flesh, to make her life a living hell.

    *Life in Salem Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo2A7rZhZGA *

    -At the Carver household, the electricity constantly flickers. Maggie looks out the window and says this storm seems to be getting stronger, and Abe says he should probably check on Theo real quick. He heads upstairs, while Maggie walks over to the mantle over the fireplace and sees a picture of Abe, Lexie, and Theo together, and she sighs as she says:

    Maggie: Oh that poor man…I know what its like to lose a spouse you love so much, and now he will have to fight for his child…if only I could help him somehow, he is just so kind and caring…

    -In the DiMera Mansion basement, Lexie lies on the floor, coughing and she slowly tries to stand up, and looks around the dusty place. She stomps up the stairs to the door and tries to open it, but its stuck and she yells “Somebody! Help, the door won’t open!” but when no one responds, she mutters it is no use and goes back down the stairs, and says its freezing down there. She moves around a few boxes to try to find any blankets or something to help keep warm, but finds nothing useful. As she checks a few more boxes and moves them around, she discovers a DOOR! She says “What the hell?!” and tries to open it…

    -In an old warehouse by the pier, Suga walks into it, barely escaping the chaos of the snow storm. She says that the snow is comin’ down like never before, and comments that Pasadena never had snow like ‘dis. Suga sits down on one of the carboard boxes, and says:

    Suga: I hope Ma is ok…she might be da only friend I’ve got left, and through her I can find a home in this here little town…but not for long, because I gots a bit of unfinished business in Pasadena…

    -Celeste laughs and says to Valentine “Dahling, Vivian Alamain is hardly my rival. Perhaps she was a small thorn in my side when she pined for Stefano’s will, but nothing more.” Valentine tells Celeste that she obviouslmoves them…she spots a DOOR! She says “What the HELL?” and tries to open it…
    y doesn’t know her sister, and that once you cross her, you are officially her rival. Valentine goes on to tell Celeste to just look at Kate Roberts, Vivian and her were rivals and Kate ended up dead. She says that the information she has could make it to where Vivian never bothers either of them, or the rest of Salem EVER again.

    -Kristen tells Marlena to get the HELL away from her, and Marlena says fine, but it would probably be better for them to at least get any problems out or cooperate instead of argue, because they are going to be in here for awhile. Kristen says that they were trapped in that Secret Room in 1997 for months and they did fine without getting along, so they aren’t going to start now. Marlena says:

    Marlena: Fine, forget it. I’ll leave you alone, you’ll leave me alone.

    Marlena walks to the other side of the room, but raises an eyebrow when she hears Kristen start sobbing even more…

    -Sami screams to Stan that that is IMPOSSIBLE, and that she CREATED him! He was just an alter ego of hers, and doesn’t actually exist! Stan tells her that Andre had to get that design he implemented into her from somewhere, and it was him. He says that he’s been a loyal servant of the DiMeras, only more in the background, but he has never forgotten about the woman who had his identity for a time, and he’s been watching her for nearly three years, waiting for the right time to strike, she was always scheming for Austin, flirting with Lucas or EJ…but now that EJ is dead and they are all out of their life, he’s here to make her pay for making a mockery out of him in 2005.

    -Marlena wonders to herself what possibly could upset Kristen so much as to where she can’t stop crying, even in the presence of her rival. She flashes back to Stefano’s funeral, when she heard Kristen tell Peter she didn’t want to see Tony, calling him “Bastard” and how also she pulled a gun on Tony back in the beginning of Janurary, but ended up shooting Anna. That is the main odd thing she can think of since Kristen’s return to Salem in December, so she walks over to Kristen once again, and asks:

    Marlena: Kristen, does this by some chance…have anything to do with Tony?

    Episode#234: Lovers Are Born

    -In one of the DiMera bedrooms, Vivian tells Peter that she CERTAINLY does not fall for men like him. Peter laughs, and says “Yeah right, Viv. Just forget it.” and Peter turns around, and Vivian groans and tries to break open the door, but can’t and can only open it slightly to see boards from the roof are blocking every door in the living room and entry-way. She screams in anger and mutters even in these freezing temperatures they are going to smother. Peter comments:

    Peter: You know, it is starting to get warmer in here…

    Peter takes off his shirt, and Vivian’s eyes widen…

    -Inside the Titan building, Forrest and Billie are trying to make their way past the other patrons of Victor’s Bella Magazine party and find a phone or something to get some light. Billie asks Forrest if he’s still there, and he says “Yeah, I think we’re getting close to the door, but I wouldn’t know.” and Billie says good. Forrest takes out his cell phone, and says there’s no reception, but the screen should give them some light. They finally are able to find the door, and go out into the dark hallway together…

    -Sami screams to Stan at the Salem Inn that she didn’t make a mockery out of HIM, she made a complete JOKE out of HERSELF! She says that she lost Lucas because of that and never ever got him back. Stan tells her to just shut up and quit her whining, because it wasn’t only in public, but also in the DiMera Empire. He was a loyal follower of Stefano, Andre, and Tony and an expert at it, but after her fiasco in 2005 he was known as the guy who was impersonated by a complete failure. He slowly walks over to Sami and grabs her by the chin, and tells her to get ready to suffer at his feet.

    -Kristen looks at Marlena angrily, and says she is a nosey bitch, and her problems with other people is none of her business, and it is also none of her business why she sobs. Marlena says that she has just been so distraught this past month, it is starting to get strange. She once again asks if it has anything to do with Tony, or Roman going into a catatonic state about two months ago or what, and Kristen shouts:

    Kristen: DAMNIT, MARLENA! Don’t you get it?! How I’ve been acting is not “strange” after what I’ve been through!

    *Life in Salem Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo2A7rZhZGA *

    -Back at the Carver house, Abe slowly walks into Theo’s bedroom to see him sleeping soundly. He smiles as he slowly sits down at his son’s bedside, and says that he sure hopes he’ll be able to keep him from Lexie and the DiMeras. He sighs and says its not like he hates Lexie, she’s a good woman deep down, but she lets the DiMera side of her take advantage time and time again, by trying to scheme to get Isaac back from Bo and Hope in 2002, cheating on him with Tek, killing Tek even if it might have been accidental, and killing Nikolas Cassadine. He stands up and begins to pace a bit, and then says:

    Abe: But Maggie sure has helped me in my decision to fight for custody of you…no matter how much Lexie tries to fight me. Maybe she even understands what I’m going through more than I thought…

    -At the Titan building, on the level of Victor’s office, after checking the area Bo comes back into Victor’s office and tells Victor he was right; there is no way to get down to the other levels besides the elevators, which are obviously out. Victor says that they have no choice but to wait until the electricity is fixed. Bo says that he’s sorry worried for Hope, and his daughters. He says Pamela and Addie are with Julie at the Horton House, but he has no idea where Hope is. He tells Victor that she’s been constantly drinking lately, and has become so emotional. Victor says it is understandable, considering Doug is in an irreversible coma, Alice and Shawn and Zack are gone, and she only has you and her daughters left. Bo says he knows, its just that it seems like something is else is affecting her as well.

    -At Maggie’s house, the electricity has just gone out, and Abby, Nick, David, and Julie are all down at the Horton House. Mike rushes into the living room from the kitchen, and yells upstairs to Jeremy to ask if he’s alright. Jeremy comes down the stairs and says he’s fine, but asks what happened as Mike lights several candles and turns some flashlights on. He says this storm caused the power to go out, and Jeremy sighs and says he’ll just go back upstairs and wait until it comes back on. Mike however then tells him to stop, and they could at least take advantage of this to spend time together.

    -Sami pulls away from Stan and slaps him, and says that she doesn’t care who he is, no man ever pulls her around! She says that after her rape by Alan Harris, she has vowed for nothing even close to that to ever happen again. Stan chuckles and says “Now now, I thought the infamous and oh-so-devious Sami Brady wouldn’t be so tense. Oh, wait, she hasn’t had a man to play with in months so that probably explains it.” and Sami then punches him right in the face, and yells “You BASTARD!” and begins to try to run off, but Stan runs forward and grabs her!

    -Vivian looks at Peter shirtless and is practically speechless, and says “Wow…I have never seen you quite like this.” and Peter asks her if she has a problem with it, and Vivian says “No, actually, somehow it washes all my anger away…” and she walks closer to Peter slowly, and Peter smirks and says now that he thinks about it she does have a type of beauty as well…and Vivian says “Trust me, I know.” as their lips get closer, and then they lock…

    -Marlena asks Kristen what she means by that statement, and Kristen realizes she might have slipped up a bit and flashes back to Vince raping her a few days after Christmas. She thinks to herself Marlena can’t know about that, and she then snaps to Marlena that she means being shipped off to jail after being rescued from years of captivity, then coming back to find the man she loved for so many years was catatonic. Marlena tells her that being taken to jail was her own damn fault, and she and Samantha shouldn’t have tried to kill her. Marlena then says:

    Marlena: You know if that’s what has got you so riled up then I am not even going to bother, its obviously just the spoiled DiMera part of you coming out. In fact, you had a similar breakdown to this when I exposed you passing off Elvis Banks as your own child and Susan and you impersonating each other. I shouldn’t be surprised it was something so simple and foolish.
    Kristen: Oh stop acting like I am just some cold wicked witch that has no feelings. Because Marlena I have a HEART! If I didn’t, don’t you think I would have pulled some scheme off against you by now? And if you’d stop hating me for a few minutes, you’d realize that you are not my top priority! I have moved on from John or whatever the damn hell you call him these days! And I have so many other problems to focus on than you!

    -Forrest and Billie walk through the hallways of the Titan building, and Billie slowly walks up to one of the windows. Billie stares out at Salem, and sees barely any lights on anywhere. She comments that it looks like the whole town is out. Forrest says he’s not surprised as he puts an arm around Billie. She smiles, and says that if the power in the whole town has to be out, and a huge storm is blowing across the state…she loves to spend it all with him. Forrest grins and says he can say the same about her, and Billie says:

    Billie: You know, Forrest, this is going to sound odd, and I know we’ve only been dating a short time…but as I get to know you better…there’s something about you that makes me feel so good. I’ve been put through hell the past two years. My daughter schemed so much, got stabbed, and later left town…I lost Bo once again, as well as Patrick. My mother died, one of my brothers was hauled off to jail…I felt like I just couldn’t take it, then you came along and invited me to the Alamain Christmas Dinner. When I look into your eyes…its like nothing ever happened. My father never abused me, my mother never died, I was never with Bo…its just you and me. Forever.
    Forrest: I don’t have as many deep experiences as you do in relationships….but I think I understand. Billie, you’re amazing. When I first saw you at Kate’s funeral was when I began to think that you were much more than what you came off as…and I was right.
    Billie: Forrest, I…I…think I love you…

    Forrest and Billie lean in, and then begin to kiss passionately…they continue to kiss, and fall back against the wall, as Forrest slowly opens the door to a private empty office, and they go inside and close the door behind them. Billie falls onto the desk as they continue kissing, and they slowly begin to take each other’s clothes off…

    Episode#235: Valentine’s dirt

    -On one of the roads of Salem, Nicholas’s Escalade is parked on the side of the road. Nicholas rubs his temples and moans that this is just great, and Belle tells him that it did put a damper on their plans, but she’s gotten used to it. Nicholas says this is just a rare occasion, because he got to get away from his family for a good reason for once and had actually found a fairly nice woman. Belle laughs, and tells Nicholas that even she can be a bitch sometimes. Nicholas suddenly remembers something and opens one of the compartments in the car, and pulls out a box of chocolates and says to Belle “Oh yeah, I got these for you.”

    -At the stuck elevator at Spears Industries, Jan continues to breathe in and out and clutches Lucas’s hands. Lucas asks how she’s doing, and Jan says she’s doing ok but she can’t take much more of this! Lucas continues to tell her to keep calm for the baby’s sake, and Jan snaps that she’s trying as hard as she can! Suddenly she shrieks in pain, and holds her stomach…

    -At the Salem Inn, Stan holds Sami back from leaving and whispers in her ear she is not going anywhere, and she tries to scream but he puts his hand over her mouth. She elbows him in the stomach and he yells out in pain, and she says angrily he has five seconds to get out and never come back or she’s going to call the cops. Stan laughs once again and says over half of the power is out all over Salem, and that its just her and him.

    -In the DiMera Library, Celeste tells Valentine she is not the kind of woman who schemes to get rid of people, not even Vivian Alamain. Valentine tells Celeste that she schemed for Stefano for years, and then goes on to say that she and Celeste go back years and years, and tells Celeste that the scoop she has on Vivian is so juicy, many people in Salem will be enraged if they find out.

    -Forrest and Billie rip each other’s clothess off one by one in the office at Titan, and begin making love. They kiss each other furiously, and then Billie whispers “We shouldn’t be doing this so soon…” and he responds by whispering “Who cares?” and Billie says he’s right as they roll all over the desk, and continue to kiss…

    -Down in the DiMera Basement, Lexie constantly tries to break open the secret door she found earlier. She tries to pick the lock, kick it open, and everything else in-between. She vows to herself that she’s not going to let anymore of her father’s damn secrets stay in the dark, and after a bit more picking, she finally gets it open! She pushes it open and walks in…to see Stefano lying on a bed with all the medical machines attached, and Elvis and Renee immediately turn around from the dead monitors to see Lexie! Lexie says in complete shock:

    Lexie: No…this is impossible…it can’t be…this can’t be happening all over again…

    -At Salem Place Apartments, Helena spies Steve and Kayla from a hole in the wall connected to another room, as they talk about what happened with Sami earlier. Kayla tells Steve to not let Sami bog him down too much, and this is just the way it’ll probably be between them and her for awhile. She says just to let it go, and maybe someday she’ll come around. Steve says:

    Steve: But, you know, Sweetness, sometimes that’s not good enough. Especially when we are two of the only family members she has left on her father’s side. Roman’s catatonic. Caroline is in a coma. Your dad’s dead. Kim is in England. Bo is busy with Hope so much…
    Kayla: Steve, you’ve tried talking to her over and over again, and it just gets worse every time. Look at tonight, she came barging in here with a GUN! I think its better we just keep our distance from her, and focus on ourselves. With all of this drama, we’ve barely had any time together.
    Steve: Yeah, I know what you’re saying, Sweetness. And I agree. I’ll try to keep my mind off of Sami, and just on you.

    Kayla smiles as she kisses Steve, and Helena chuckles and says that their happiness will be short-lived, and that both of them will pay dearly for her son’s death…

    -Inside Nicholas’s car, Belle looks at the chocolates and exclaims “Oh, Nicholas, you didn’t have to get me these!” and he says he thought he should, and she smiles at him. She is silent for a moment as she takes one of the chocolates out and eats them, before placing them in the backseat. Nicholas asks if she’s alright, and Belle answers:

    Belle: Well, you’ve been so kind to me over the past few weeks…asking me to be your Valentine, sending me flowers, taking me out on this date even if things didn’t go as planned, and now getting me chocolates…I want to return the favor.
    Nicholas: Oh?
    Belle: Yes…Nicholas…I’d like to kiss you.
    Nicholas: I can take you up on that offer.

    Nicholas and Belle lean in, and slowly share a kiss, and then after a moment they pull back and smile at each other…

    -Lucas immediately asks Jan whats wrong, and Jan says it’s the baby. She says that all this anxiety is getting to it, and Lucas says “Oh no” and tries to figure out what to do, and Jan screams in pain again and tells Lucas that there’s nothing either of them can do at this point…she’s going into labor! Lucas asks if she’s sure, and Jan nods slowly and says she can’t hold it back, the baby’s coming!

    -Sami tells Stan there is no way in hell she’s staying in the same room as him, and she begins to shift through her drawers and Stan asks what she thinks she’s doing, and she growls she’s looking for something to protect herself against him. Stan tells her she won’t have to worry about him hurting her, because he’s not going after her physically…he plans to torture her already tortured mind.

    -Lexie looks at Stefano, and says again he just can’t be alive. She looks at Elvis and Renee and asks who the hell they are, but thinks to herself that Renee looks familiar. She begins to remember seeing pictures of her around the mansion before, and slowly asks “Are you…you…Renee DiMera, my dead half-sister?” as her eyes widen, and Renee and Elvis look at each other in silence, wondering what to do…

    -Back in the DiMera Library, Celeste tells Valentine she could care less about Vivian. She says to Valentine she knows her, and does not plan on allying with HER anytime soon. Celeste states that she won’t be like all the other fallen DiMera Lovers. Valentine tells Celeste she has gotten too careful, and must have softened up after leaving the DiMera Empire. She whispers to Celeste that she knows she is just dying to know what she knows about Vivian, and that she’ll regret it once Vivian tries to come between her and Victor. Celeste snaps:

    Celeste: How do you know about that?!
    Valentine: I have heard through the grapevine, after being in Salem for a little while, that you and Victor Kiriakis have a relationship blossoming.
    Celeste: Fine, if it’ll get you to just shut up, you can tell me your knowledge.
    Valentine: I knew you’d come around, Darrrrrrling. Now, what I know on Vivian could send her to prison for years and years. Basically, Vivian returned to Salem in June 2006, but didn’t tell anyone. But I have eyes and ears everywhere; specifically through her once-loyal assistant, Ivan. Anyway, she began to meddle in people’s lives. She stabbed Chelsea Benson which put her in a coma, she tried to blackmail Sami Brady, attempted to poison Caroline Brady but ended up poisoning Kayla Brady which caused Shawn Brady Sr.’s death, she attacked Billie Reed on the pier, she tried to attack Kate Roberts at Roman Brady and Marlena’s wedding…all to get revenge on Kate and get Victor back…

    Valentine smirks as she looks on upon Celeste’s horrified face…
