Paul tells his dad he doesn’t think he’s cut out for private detective work; he felt horrible about following Jennifer and digging into her pain like that; his dad encourages him to give it chance.  Just as they finish up their conversation, Sonny shows up; John excuses himself, and Sonny sits down.  Sonny orders lunch and asks Paul how it’s going; Paul tells him he is having a hard time with the job because he’s afraid it is going to ruing his relationships with people.  Sonny seems to understand.

Jade sees Joey in the square and calls out; she asks if he’s avoiding her – mentioning that living back with her parents is going okay.  She asks if he has a new girlfriend, or if he figured out he is out of her league…he avoids her calls and refuses to carry on a text conversation; he tells her he is going to see a ‘shrink’ and he thinks she may be part of his anger problem.  She reminds him she wasn’t around when he was with Ava; he acknowledges, it isn’t all her (it’s the fact that he finds her so exciting…he likes the thrill).  He says, he’s afraid that he’s turning into his dad.  Kayla tells Steve that she wants to go to couples counseling; he tells her that’s not his thing.  He says he doesn’t need a therapist to find his way back to her because he is already there; she is the one saying it can’t work.  She gets mad and says he can’t blame her; he asks what more he has to do to prove he’s trying (he’s given up his job, working at a bar).  She looks completely frustrated; after she carries on for some time, he says okay, he can tell this means a lot to her.  He tells her to call.  They leave the house and stroll through the park, where they come across Joey and Jade, just as Jade is telling him to go to hell and leaves.  They tell him they are going to take his advice; they are going to therapy (which means they will be seeing Marlena as well).  After Kayla leaves them alone, Joey tells his dad he is sure he will hate it as much as he does.  

Eduardo tells his family that he is leaving Salem; he feels it is best, and necessary, in order to keep them safe.  Gabi is bothered by the news, and by her brother’s behavior; she tells Rafe that she thinks Dario is acting strangely, like there’s something he is not telling them.  Dario is on the phone with the guy who grabbed Gabi, telling him to get out of town; the man tells Dario he has decided there are more reasons for him to stay.  He demands more money; Dario tells his family he has to leave.  Eduardo hugs Gabi, as she cries; he shakes Rafe’s hand and then hugs him.  Gabi and Rafe leave; Eduardo holds Adriana tight and promises her he will make everything right and come back for good.  She says it’s not fair, as she just got him back.  Dario meets the would-be kidnapper and pays him some money, telling him that is it; they guy laughs.  Gabi sees him as he rounds the corner in the square and she starts to scream; the man covers her mouth and tells her to shut up, adding that he is really tired of her family.  He leaves.  

Steve cancels on Kayla as she waits at Marlene’s office for him to show; she tells John she doesn’t think he is going to show.  John goes to the bar and finds him with a drink in hand, talking to some lady who just sat down.  Joey finds Jade and tells her he loves her; he wants to be with her, no matter what anybody says.
