Adrian comes to tell Jennifer that the negotiation went better than expected; he sold the paper to them “for a song.”  They are the new owners of the Spectator.  She said she started off talking about how her brother used to be the Editor, but what sold it was when she told him Jennifer would be in charge of the journalism.  Adrian tells Jennifer if she takes care of that, she will handle the “biz.”  Justin shows up; he is angry with Adrian for buying the paper ‘out from under’ Titan… he says it was all over in the paper that they were putting in a bid for it.  Adrian is really pissed about Justin’s reaction to their purchase of the paper; Jennifer asks her why it upset her so.  

Teresa comes home, terrified; she finds a box on her bed, with a phone in it.  The phone rings; it’s Mateo, letting her know he was in her house… he tells her how beautiful her little boy is.  She runs to check on Tate.  He’s not there; she asks Mateo what he has done with them, but he doesn’t answer.  She tells him she will do whatever he wants; Brady strolls up the sidewalk with Tate in the stroller… she hugs him, asking where he was.  He said they just went for a walk; they go in the house.  Mateo is still on the phone; Brady goes upstairs and Teresa talks to him again, asking what he expects her to do.  She calls Victor for a meeting and tells him that this man has threatened to kill Brady and Tate if she doesn’t leave them and go with him to Mexico; she tells him she doesn’t want to go, and asks if he could use his connections to help her.  

Victor says he can’t help Teresa; this man is more powerful than him, he says.  Victor suggests she get her father’s help; she says her father just wants her to run.  She decides she is going to have to go to Mexico with Mateo and do whatever he wants; Victor tells her, he agrees, but says she can’t tell Brady – but how is she going to explain her leaving, he asks.  She cries; Victor puts his hand on her shoulder.  When she sees Brady in the bedroom, she asks him to make love to her.  

Chloe holds her belly and talks to the baby; she says they have no one else to lean on… she says Deimos is the reason that no one can know their secret.  She returns Nicole’s phone call; Nicole asks why she didn’t tell her the baby wasn’t really Deimos’ – she tells her she wants her to come live with her, asking if he isn’t the father, what is the problem?  Chloe makes up a story about having a one-night stand with a guy in a bar, then suddenly tells Nicole she needs to go, and hangs up.  She imagines a conversation between her and Nicole, back when Daniel was still alive; on the park bench, after Daniel goes to play with Parker, she tells Nicole she wants to be a surrogate for her and Daniel.  If only it could have been that easy, she tells the baby.  She says it wasn’t that easy a sell with Daniel; he resists the offer, but then concedes.  

Next scene shows them at the sperm bank/ doctor’s office; they are told it will take about three weeks for the process, but then, the transfer doesn’t take – and then Daniel died, along with Nicole’s dream.  Chloe reveals that she went back to the clinic and found out she had the right to try implanting another one of the frozen embryos…and this time, it took.  But she had never told Nicole, and for whatever reason, still isn’t sure she should.  Deimos calls Nicole to apologize; he says he spoke with someone who helped him see the other side of all of this.  He asks Nicole to give him another chance.
