10-30-2017 (Monday) Halloween Comes to Salem

It’s Halloween Eve in Salem; Claire answers the door, dressed in a tiger costume (she’s adorable).  It’s Theo; he forgot his key.  He tells her he has to work and won’t be able to go with her to the costume party after all; he says it’s not really his idea of fun anyway, “standing around dressed up like an idiot, talking to a bunch of other people dressed up like idiots.”  He tries to kiss Claire and tells her she is beautiful; she reminds him that he just said she looked like an idiot.  He says, “yeah, but a beautiful idiot.”  They kiss.  She says she’ll wait while he goes to do what he needs to do.  He goes to the mansion to talk to Kate; she tells him they have been hacked again and she needs him to figure out who did it.  He says that’s strange because they beefed up the security after the last hacking.

Claire comes back in the door, not looking where she’s going and bumps in to Tripp, who is walking around with a towel around his waist.  The towel falls to the floor; she looks at him and laughs, “oops.”  He pulls it up and apologizes; she tells him it’s okay, but says they probably shouldn’t say anything to Theo because he is still having a hard time believing Tripp doesn’t have a thing for Claire.  She says he takes everything so literally, making him jealous may not have been the best move.  But, she tells Tripp, he will eventually for give him, like he did her.  Theo tells Kate he cannot do what she wants; he says it almost got him in trouble the last time and he won’t lie to Claire about what he is doing.  Kate wants complete discretion.  Theo goes back home and tells Claire he’s ready; she says he needs a costume.  He puts on a baseball cap and says he is a “baseball fan.”  She laughs, kisses him and they leave; she almost invites Tripp to go with them, but thinks better of it.

Sammi, John, Marlena, Sonny and Paul go to a house in Memphis, where they find ‘Elivis.’  They question him, but he claims to know nothing about Will; he pulls a gun and tells them to get out of his house.  Sammi mentions Dr. Rolf; Elvis says he knows him – he brought him back from the dead, he says, claiming his “fans demanded it.”  Paul easily takes the gun away from Elvis; Sammi calls the police and says, “a crime has been committed” at this address.  Sonny steps forward and Elvis shoves him back.  He falls, hitting his head on a piece of furniture on the way down; he is out cold.  They call for an ambulance, as well.  When the police arrive, Sammi says this man needs to be arrested, but after Elvis shows his driver’s license, the officer tells Sammi he cannot arrest him.  Elvis says they should all be arrested for trespassing, but the cop is going to let them go, until he reaches for Sammi and she slaps his hand away, scratching him in the process.  He tells her she just earned herself a ride downtown.  After they leave, Elvis turns to someone and says they can come out now “they are gone.”  From this persons perspective, we see them step out of the bedroom door.

Standing by Deimos’ headstone now, Victor and Brady are surprised by Eve; she is wearing a black veil.  She says she wanted to be by her husband’s side; Brady and Victor can’t believe that Deimos married her, but she shows them a marriage certificate.  She tells the story of how she came to see Tate when Brady was in Canada with Nicole, and Deimos was the only one there; they talked, one thing led to another and they decided to get married (I think for Deimos, it was more to stick it to Victor than anything).  She says they honeymooned on a beach somewhere, and then Deimos just left her there… she decided to come back to town when she heard he had died.  She tells them to check out the paperwork; it’s all legal.
