Shaun walks in to hear Claire and Belle talking about Hong Kong; he asks what’s going on.  Claire excuses herself, telling him not to get mad right away, and Belle gives him her news.  He is clearly pissed at first, (because they decided to come back to Salem to be near their family) but then he calms down.  Belle explains to him that this is important to her; it’s a chance to change DeMira Enterprises for the better.  He tells her he doesn’t want to stand in the way of her career, so she should go; she is surprised he doesn’t want to come with her – he says he will just spend extra time with their daughter.  He says it’s only a year.. they’ve gotten through much longer; he kisses her and leaves.

Milo tells Clyde the order in which he would like to kill people in Salem… Roman Brady, for shooting and killing his wife twenty years ago, then Marlena and John.  John is jogging with Paul (having some difficulty catching his breath); he tells Paul that he doesn’t have to keep working with him, if he doesn’t enjoy it.  Paul tells him, after finding Tate, he has decided he’s in.  Teresa runs into Kate in the square; she tells her she heard what she did – Kate assumes she means kidnapping Tate, but Teresa starts spouting off about comments she made to Fashion Week about Teresa’s incompetence.  Teresa gets a phone call and turns her back on Tate, in the stroller, again… Kate could just take off with him again.  She doesn’t; she recalls when she did take him, though (and a scene plays that wasn’t shown before, of Kate talking to Tate in the crib in the motel).  Teresa finishes her call and turns around; she asks Kate why Tate seems comfortable with her, because strangers normally upset him.  Kate shrugs. 

Victor calls Brady to tell him he found out who took Tate; Brady doesn’t believe him, but Victor says he can prove it.  Brady demands to meet this creep; Victor takes him to the morgue.  Afterward, they go talk to Roman; Roman tells Brady that Titus confessed – their man (Starbros?) heard the whole thing.  He says they found proof he was tied to the Chopan Group and have verified his confession; Brady apologizes to Victor for accusing him.  He cries a little, and they hug; Teresa shows up, looking slightly confused.  After Brady tells her they were wrong, Teresa apologizes and invites Victor to the wedding.  In return, Victor offers to host the wedding, at the mansion, where he and Maggie are living again (with Deimos).  

Back behind bars, Xander imagines what he would like to do to Nicole and Teresa, should he have the chance.  Clyde gives him a hard time, laughing about him being a psychopathic murderer.  The three men get told to come along; transport is there.  (Hmm, a chance for them to escape.)  As the bus rolls down the road, one of the men clenches his fist… it’s Eduardo, pretending to be a guard.  He stabs Milo, they wrestle, fall halfway out the door and the bus wrecks.  Milo appears to be dead; but the other two are gone.  Gabi finds Paul in the square; he tells her he was tailing somebody, but that person ended up dead (Titus, I think).  Gabi talks about how great it is to have Sonny back; Paul agrees, but it’s obvious he would still like more than just to be friends with Sonny.  

In the park, Shaun recalls a time that he needed to move somewhere and Belled begged him not to go; Claire finds him and sits down on the bench.  She asks why he won’t go with her mom to Hong Kong; he says that he thinks maybe things just weren’t meant to be.  He doesn’t want to go, not having any plans of his own.  She talks to him about how much he and her mom loved each other once; he recalls.  Belle tells John and Marlena the news; they are shocked, but agree to look out for Claire while she’s gone.  They toast to the future, and “new beginnings” and they embrace in a group hug. Just as Belle is ready to head to the airport, Shaun shows up at the door, with his bags packed.
