Abe tells Theo he believes he made a
mistake by taking Valerie’s advice to stand back and let him be independent;
Theo hands over his computer. Abe tells
him he compromised himself and broke the law, for nothing as it turns out… The
just shakes his head. Theo reminds his
father that he is a DeMira when Abe starts talking crap about “them.” He tells him he wanted to help and he would
do it again. His dad demands that he quit his job at DeMira; Theo says, “no”
taking his father by surprise. Abe
says, “what?” Theo says, “you heard me,
I’m not going to quit.” He walks
off. Lani meets with Eli and tells him
she doesn’t think she can work with him anymore; she tells him Raines is pushing
her for information and she can’t even tell him that she pretty much “knows butcass.” She tells Eli that he threatened to fire
her, but says she handled it beautifully, by telling him that he could, but
then her father could fire him, admitting that it was an empty threat. She says she would never put her dad in that
position, nor would he let her. Eli
dismisses her, effective immediately.
Hope says she can’t believe they have to re-open “this case” and Rafe
says that’s what happens when you have more than one credible witness. She says at least she is glad he is there
with her, and not in Mexico; Rafe tells her he has determined that Dario is
probably still here in Salem. Rafe
confesses to Hope that he doesn’t like Eli thinking that he can run this
investigation; she says he is trying to help.
Rafe says he has wracked his brain to think if there was anything he
could remember Dario saying, but he says he never mentioned who he was working
with. Hope says Eli won’t say either,
which means whoever it is, is a “major player.” Raines comes out to talk to Rafe and Hope; he complains about
Lani not telling him anything, saying she seems to forget who she works
for. Lani comes back and apologizes to
Raines, telling him she is no longer working with Eli. She also retracts her threat admitting her
dad would never abuse his power and she wouldn’t ask him to.
Eli asks his mom what the occasion was; she
says none, he’s just been generous as of late.
She tells him Abe said he got a good price for it because he paid cash
for it; Eli is intrigued by this information.
Theo gets home and tells Claire that he just got in a huge fight with
his dad because of the work he’s doing for his family; she asks if this work
has anything to with Chad’s arrest. He
says, “kind of.” She tells him she
hopes it doesn’t get him in trouble. He
starts getting uncomfortable and symptoms of autism manifest; he starts
squeezing his hands and moving around.
Claire bends down and takes his hands; she rubs them and tells him it’s
going to be okay. Eli finds Abe sitting
at a table in the Square; he thanks him for taking care of his mom, mentioning
the presents. Eli asks if he won the
lottery; Abe asks about leads on Dario Hernandez. Eli says no; Abe asks if the case is closed. Eli says far from it; Abe looks disappointed. (Oh my, is Abe the major player???) Eli asks Rafe and Hope to meet him in the
park; he tells them it’s time he let them in on who this major player is, and
says they aren’t going to like it. Abe
pulls a wad of cash out of his pocket, counts it and puts it back.
Kate is mad
at Andre; she asks when he was going to tell her Chad confessed to killing
Deimos. Andre admits to telling Chad
the truth because he deserved to know how much Abigail loves him and was
willing to give up for him. Kate asks
if he thought about what this has done to their “bottom line.” Andre mocks her; he says its all okay
because Chad has recanted his confession, and Sonny has been cleared too. Kate says she needs to call the board. She reminds him that the board doesn’t trust
him and starts getting bossy; Andre says he did his damnedest to change Chad’s
mind, even trying to enlist Gabi’s help.
He says she needs a reminder that she may run the company, but he runs
the family and when he divorces her, she will be on the outside again, pressing
her nose against the window. They have
a stare-down. Andre asks if they have
irreconcilable difference; he welcomes her to divorce him, reminding her the
board could press charges for fraud.
She apologizes for being harsh.
She tells him they can just forget they had this conversation; Andre
reminds her that neither one of them ever forget anything. He walks off laughing. He later hears her on the phone talking to
someone about him, saying “it appears he isn’t up to the task.”
Roman asks Steve
what happened between him and Kayla; Steve tells him things are so broken this
time, he doesn’t know if they will be able to fix it. He tells Roman about Tripp being the one that set Kayla up,
reminding him about the day at the bar and how guilty Joey was feeling. He says Tripp jumped to the wrong conclusion
and wanted to make Kayla pay for his mother’s death. He tells Roman Tripp snapped and tried to kill Kayla. Roman asks where they go from here. Claire reads the news about Chad’s
confession; she tells Joey she didn’t think the DeMiras admitted to anything,
ever. Joey says it must have been hard
for Chad; he tells Claire he is planning on doing the same thing. She tries to talk him out of it, but he says
he has made up his mind. He goes to the
Pub and tells his Uncle Roman that he quits and can’t give him two weeks
notice; he asks his dad to come with him to the police station.Kayla remembers
their first conversation with Joey about Tripp, before Steve went looking for
him. Tripp surprises her when he walks
up behind her and says her name. He
asks if they can talk somewhere private; she says no, but he can talk to her
right there. He tells her he wanted to
say he was sorry. He admits his Uncle
Angelo got him worked up about her needing to pay; he says he was just going to
talk to her and then he got enraged when he saw her sleeping and thought about
his mother struggling to breath with that pillow over her head.
He again says he is so, so sorry and says
she is right; he deserves to go to prison for what he did. He tells her that he heard their conversation
and he was just going to take off, but then he talked to Claire and she helped
him see that he’s just be running away.
He says if he wants other people to pay for the things they’ve done, he
should too; Kayla says she has every right to go to the police, but she isn’t
going to. She says she was angry when
she was talking to Steve; she doesn’t want to ruin his life anymore than she
wants Joey’s ruined. Tripp says he
doesn’t know what to say; Kayla says he doesn’t have to say anything, but there
is something he could do. Steve asks
Joey if he is sure turning himself in is what he wants to do; Joey says
yes. They get ready to head out and are
surprised when they see Tripp walk into the Pub with Kayla; she tells them
Tripp has something he wants to say to them.
He says he has realized that they can all be pushed to do bad things; he
tells Joey he has paid enough and he just wants this to all be over. Kayla says it’s what she wants to, and asks
Joey what he thinks; Joey hesitates to answer.
