Teresa steps out onto the square, in her wedding dress; Brady appears around the corner, bleeding from the stomach.  He collapses into her arms, as she wakes up.  Brady brings her breakfast in bed; she jumps up and kisses him.  He tells her this is the first day of their honeymoon; unofficially, she says.  He says that she is his wife, officially, in his heart and that’s all that matters.  Nicole is having breakfast with Deimos; she thanks him for keeping his promise – he smiles, sheepishly.  Nicole sees Dario and confronts him about lying to her, and breaking into Chloe’s; he’s a little miffed when she admits that she was spying on him.  Deimos asks if everything is all right… he says he’s hoping everyone can see, in time, that his intentions were pure.  

As Blanca sits at a table with Dario, another man stares through the window at them; he looks mean.  The man comes in and says, “Olla, Blanca.”  She looks terrified… or just pissed.  Dario says this is the man from her past she had talked about; she tells him she left without telling him, for a reason.  She says she caught him in bed with another woman and tells him to go away.  She threatens to tell his old boss that he was skimming from him, adding that he’s not the type of boss to forgive and forget.  He asks if she would really rat him out to Mateo; she says she would do whatever was necessary to keep him out of her life.  Dario says maybe he will call his brother and tell him about this man’s cartel connections; the man agrees to go.  Blanca is trembling as he leaves; Dario hugs her, asking if she is okay.  She sits down and thanks Dario for sticking up for her; she says she really thought she was in love with this man – Giordano? - but it was a lies.

Philip meets with Deimos; Deimos tells Philip that he wants him to make up for causing the rift between him and his father, by talking to his father about putting him back on with Titan.  Deimos says absolutely not.  He argues that, since he was the one who caused the fight, he would only cause Victor to remember that.  He says he invited Philip to move into the mansion, hoping maybe it could help fix the rift between them; he tells Philip he needs to ask his father, himself, to come back to the company.  Deimos explains, as Nicole watches from a distance, how love shouldn’t be a weapon (to be withheld for obedience) and the father-son bond should not be dismissed lightly.  He mentions that being the reason he so badly wanted Chloe’s baby to be his, so he could give that love to his son; Nicole appears to be feeling guilty about keeping Chloe’s secret.  She tries to call Chloe, leaving a message that it’s getting harder to avoid the truth; Deimos rounds the corner and is surprised to see her there.  She hands him his phone; says he left it at the pub.  

Brady and Teresa go to the park; as they sit, Teresa tells Brady that she has to tell him something… she explains that she had lied (way back when) about Xander raping her.  Brady, though upset that she lied, tells her that he has not lived a perfect life either, and he loves her anyway.  They kiss.  The doctor tells Maggie that there is no physical or physiological reason that she shouldn’t be walking now; she suggests that there is a mental block keeping her from standing up.  When Victor tells Julie this, she says it makes sense; Maggie is, possibly, afraid of losing him and feels the need to stay dependent upon him.  Philip goes home and tries to talk to Victor; Victor tells him not now – of course, Philip says.  He asks how Maggie is and what her doctor said.  He tells Philip that Julie says it may be because of her fear of losing him; Philip says he knows how much Victor loves Maggie.  He is surprised that Maggie doesn’t know it; he suggests maybe just a small change in thinking would show her.  Victor says that might work; he decides he wants to spend more time with Maggie, but would need to step back from Titan a bit and would need someone to step in for him.  Philip waits, hopefully.  

Victor leaves the room; he goes to tell Maggie.  She is happy.  Philip runs into Brady in the square; he tells him that Victor is planning on retiring and mentioned that someone in the family would need to step up and take over.  He asks Brady to put in a good word for him; Brady says he is not the only viable candidate.  They leave it with, “may the best man win.”  Brady tells Teresa he feels like this is going to get ugly.  Giordano stops in his tracks when he sees Teresa and Brady on the bench; he calls someone and tells them they won’t believe who he just found – Teresa Donovan.  Deimos tells Nicole that talking to Philip earlier, and giving his advice, kind of felt like he was being a father to the son he never had; Nicole, hesitantly, tells Deimos there is something she needs to tell him… it’s a secret she’s been keeping from him for some time
