10-26-2017 (Thursday) The Search Goes On

Eric comes to the Pub; Roman wants to talk to him about getting back together with Nicole.  Eric tells his dad that it is already over; he says, “Nicole is out of my life.”  He tells his dad that Brady did or said something that forced her to change her mind about wanting to be with him; Eric says he wants to find out what it is.  Roman gets a phone call about Sammi; he says, she “did what?!”  Hope goes through files on her desk; Rafe comes in and asks, “why in the hell did you do that?”  He is talking about Sammi; Hope says she grabbed her gun and put a man’s life in danger – Rafe asks how she could let that happen.  She tries to explain how it all happened so fast; she says she had to arrest Sammi because somebody could have gotten hurt, saying over and over, “what if?”  She tells him that Rolf killed himself because of Sammi’s actions; Rafe says she couldn’t have known he was going to do that.  He asks Hope to give her a break, saying she was desperate; Hope tells him he is a hypocrite.  She points out what happened with JJ; he says there is a difference because JJ is a trained police officer.  Hope thinks he is just defending Sammi because he used to be married to her; he denies it.  What asks, “what if it was Zach?”  Hope can’t believe he went there; he asks her how far she would go… then apologizes.  She says Sammi went too far, and she wishes he would respect her decision; he says okay.  They call a truce; he hugs her and they kiss.  Rafe says, they must be looking for one scary dude if Rolf chose to kill himself rather than reveal him.

Chad brings Abigail breakfast in bed; chocolate chip pancakes.  He is trying to make their honeymoon special even though they had to stay home; Abby kisses him and pulls him down and they almost tip the tray over.  Jennifer comes to see Kate; she says Kate is “on the ropes” and she is there to ask some questions as a reporter.  Kate insists there is no story here; Jennifer says there has been ever since Andre called that press conference.  Abby and Chad come in the room and interrupting the yelling; Abigail gets her mother to leave.  Kate tells Chad Jen can really be “a witch”; he smiles.  They start talking business; Chad asks how her big idea is going.  She says not so well.  Kate tells Chad every time she targets a new company, it gets bought out from under her.  Chad says that’s an inside job; they both realize it’s probably Andre.  Kate says she knows he can console her with one hand and stab her in the back with the other; she tells Chad she will take care of it.  Jen talks to Abby over coffee in the Square, she talks about Eric.  Jen says maybe with Nicole gone, Eric can finally get past her; Abigail says maybe Jen could help him get past her.  Kate tells Chad they probably shouldn’t tell Abby because she is so close with Andre; Abigail walks in to hear Chad say that he won’t lie to his wife.  Roman comes to tell Kate about Sammi being in jail, and why; Kate is stunned.  She cries, realizing that they are no closer to knowing if Will is out there somewhere now.

Chloe comes to see Brady; she brings him a payment on the loan but admits that she wants to ask what happened with Nicole.  Brady just gets irritated and tells Chloe it’s always the same thing; he gives and gives and loves these women and he still ends up alone.  Chloe tries to find other excuses for his past relationships not working; he tells her not to do that.  He glances over at the decanter; Chloe notices and asks him not to even consider that.  She reminds him of how bad off Lucas has gotten and tells him to just keep focusing on Tate; she invites him to go to the pumpkin patch with her and Parker tomorrow.  He hugs her goodbye and then runs to the decanter and pours himself a drink; he pours it back.  Eric walks in; Brady tells him to tell him how it happened… he tries.  Eric says they wanted to be honest with him; they had a plan.  He demands to know what Brady did that made her change her mind; Brady just shrugs.  He finally says, if Eric “knew the truth” about what she is capable of, he’d be thanking him.  He calls her a “selfish, lying slut” and Eric punches him in the jaw.
