09-22-2017 (Friday) Goodbye Again?

Eric calls Julie; he thanks her for understanding.  He reflects back on his conversation with Brady, promising to never come between Nicole and him.  Brady gets up to find Nicole on the couch, setting up meetings with potential donors; he realizes she really loves that job.  She can’t find her briefcase; he apologizes again for being so jealous and says he knows nothing is going on between Eric and her.  She kisses him goodbye.  She is surprised when she gets to the Center and finds Jason sitting at Eric’s desk; he tells her Eric quit this morning.  He gives her a note from Eric.  He talks about his guilt over Daniel, and how much her forgiveness changed things for him; he says their friendship means the world to him, and thanks her for freeing him.  He tells her she has his “admiration and respect” and wishes her the best in life.

Jen and Abby go over details for the wedding; Abby objects when her mom says she is throwing her a bachelorette party.  Jennifer takes Abigail shopping for her wedding dress; she tells her, she doesn’t care how many times she does it, it will always make her cry.  They talk about how wonderful it will be, walking down the isle with two other people who love each other ass much as they do; Sonny wakes up, to see Will in his bed.  He smiles and tells him he is happy he’s back; he tells him he loves him so much.  Will asks why he is marrying “him” tomorrow; Sonny turns over to see Paul on the other side of him.  Paul asks, if he loves him so much, why he is thinking about Will.  Sonny actually wakes up, and Paul asks what he was dreaming about; he says he seemed agitated.   He says he was dreaming about Lucas; he tells Paul, he said a lot of things that made sense when he was yelling at him (even though he was drunk).  Paul says it made him realize that they still have a lot of unresolved issues about Will they need to discuss.  Sonny kisses him and says they can talk about it after they get some coffee.  They find Brady downstairs; Brady tells Paul he is taking him out for a bachelor party… Sonny asks what about him.  Brady says a “joint bachelor party doesn’t make sense” but Sonny protests quickly, that he and Will had a joint bachelor party.  He looks at Paul, with a slightly guilty face; Paul doesn’t seem bothered.  He tells Sonny it’s okay if he talks about Will; they agree to have separate parties, Sonny saying, he and Sonny will probably do something “low key.”

Paul asks Brady if he talked to his brother about Nicole; Brady tells him they were not having an affair, if that’s what he is asking about.  Eric tries to explain to Jennifer that he just feels like it’s time for him to move on; she says it sounds more like he is running away from something.  Paul leaves and Sonny tells Brady they need to talk about the future of Titan; Brady says they can talk about that when he gets back from his honeymoon.  He thinks it might be in Titan’s best interest to leave things the way they are; Sonny gets upset.  He tells Brady, his filling in for him was only to be temporary; Brady says things are running smoothly now and they shouldn’t disrupt it.  They bring up each other’s personal problems; Sonny says he earned the CEO position and isn’t going to hand it over to Brady without a fight.  He leaves the room.

Chad tries to figure out his wedding vows; Andre says it should be a “no brainer by now” and suggests he just speak from his heart.  He says there is something important they need to discuss now; Andre tells him he is taking him out on his last night of freedom.  Chad agrees, so long as there are no strippers; Abigail accepts her mother’s plan as well, but they argue over what the activities will be.  Eric approaches Jennifer and Abby at their table in the Square; he asks if he can talk to Jennifer.  Andre and Chad agree that they want to work on their ‘brother’ relationship; Abigail walks in to see them hugging.

Eric tells Jennifer he isn’t running from anything, but he is a different person now, much thanks to her… he says he knows he can do some real good now, anywhere he goes.  He thanks her for not giving up on him, and for pushing him; she tells him there is no thanks needed and says she will miss him a lot.  Holding hands, he says he will miss her more, especially the donuts she brings him; she says she’ll send him some by mail if he sends her his address.  They hug as she says “I guess this is goodbye then” and he says, “for now” and kisses her on the forehead.  Nicole tells Jason Eric’s letter doesn’t make sense to her; she says she needs to talk to him before it’s too late.  She runs into Jennifer in the Square; Jen tells her he has already left town.  Eric walks into an empty room, carrying a duffle bag in one hand and a small box in the other; he drops the box and pictures of Nicole fall out.  He picks them up and looks around the room, seemingly heartbroken.

Justin calls back and tells Abigail there is a problem; she tells Chad they might not be getting married tomorrow after all.  Paul gets a call from his mother; she is in the hospital and can’t come to the wedding.  She tells him not to postpone it for her; he and Sonny sit down to fill out their paperwork at the chapel.  Paul asks Sonny, “first, why don’t you want to talk about Will?”
