Abby and Chad run into Gabi in the Square; Abby mentions that she is going to work for DeMira Enterprises as soon as their “staycation” is over, and Gabi mentions that Kate wants to buy her company to merge with Wilamina whatever and have her come to work for her at DeMira as well.  They all look a little awkward for a moment; Abigail asks if she’s accepted the job.  Gabi says no, because she has some concerns; she says she will turn down the offer if either of them have a problem with it.

Claire gets excited when her tablet starts dinging non-stop; she tells Theo, “I’m trending!”  The new song she posted is “blowing up.”  She says it’s the most amazing thing that’s ever happened to her, except for dating him; Theo says he isn’t surprised.   He tells her he is the reason she got all those followers; she looks confused.  He says he “bought her some followers.”  Claire gets angry; Theo doesn’t understand why.  He thought it would make her happy; she yells at him, it doesn’t make her happy… she says those are “fake likes” and that’s not what she wanted.  He says some of those people might start liking her for real and that will help her numbers keep going up.  She leaves, saying she has to get to work; Theo reminds him that they have plans later, and she says she’ll meet him there, “maybe.”

Kate comes to see Kayla at the hospital; she says the board members would like to know who that large ‘anonymous’ donation was made by, and she’s hoping Kayla can help.  Kayla obviously doesn’t want to tell.  She says the donor wants to remain anonymous; she admits that some people may not feel comfortable where the money came from…but she ends up telling her it was Tripp.  Kate says that might reflect badly on the hospital, accepting “mob money” but Kayla defends the donation.  She says he could have done worse with it; he wanted to do good instead.  Kate agrees it was generous and forgiving, since the hospital is where his mother was murdered.  Says says, “it’s almost saintly” and Kate responds, “Tripp is no saint.”  Kate recalls Theo telling her that Tripp is in no position to judge them for what he overheard; she asks Kayla what she means by that.  Kayla says she shouldn’t have said that; she says he’s just had a rough life, that’s all.  Kate agrees to leave it alone and excuses herself.

Tripp sits on the bench in the Square, looking at pictures of Claire and smiling; Steve happens by and notices.  Tripp tells him he’s just happy for her because she’s a friend; then Claire walks by.  Tripp asks her what’s wrong; she says she just wants to scream.  Theo calls and she ignores the call; she says Theo Carver is the last person she wants to talk to right now.  Theo recalls Claire’s words, “sometimes I feel like you just don’t know me at all.”  Claire explains to Tripp why she got upset; she says she was so excited at first, thinking that these people really liked her song, but it was all a lie.  Kayla recalls her first conversation with Tripp about the donation, and her negative reaction to it; Steve comes in to see Kayla and tells her that Tripp still thinks he wants to go into medicine, even though he knows he could never come back "here."  She tells him about her meeting with Kate today; Steve is upset when she says she told Kate it was Tripp.  Kayla tells him, it’s okay because she didn’t say anything incriminating; Kate listens from behind the doorway.  Kayla goes on talking, saying she would be in trouble if the board knew Tripp was behind all those instances that made her look guilty of killing patients; Kate smiles.

Brady calls a meeting; Eve comes in first, then Eli and Rafe.  He tells Eli and Rafe that Eve is Deimos’ killer; he says she killed him to inherit everything he had.  They have to admit, that is quite a motive for murder; Eli says they should at least check into it.  Eve refuses to say anything until she gets an attorney; Brady says he has “proof.”  He brings up the amulet; Eve denies ever having seen the amulet, but Brady says she’s lying.  Brady calls Henderson, the butler, who had been given instructions to throw Eve’s things out in the yard.  Henderson tells Rafe and Eli that, when he went in her room, he saw the amulet laying in her bag; Eve says he’s lying too, but when she looks in her bag, the amulet IS in there.  She tells Rafe she’s never seen it before; she says Brady set this whole thing up.  Brady says he only wanted her out of his house, but now that he knows she killed his “great uncle” he wants her behind bars where she belongs.

Eve shoves Brady, saying she knows he’s behind this; she says he “wrote the story.”  She tells the officers that this is just revenge because he’s mad that she is now in charge of Basic Black; they question this and her answers only make her look more guilty.  Brady whispers, “you didn’t think this one through, did you?”  She turns, shoves him again and says, “I will kill you for this.”  A death threat, right in front of police officers; not very smart.  Lol.  Rafe tells Eve she needs to come with them down to the station for questioning; after they leave, Brady thanks Henderson for bringing that to his attention; Henderson leaves the room.  Brady goes straight to the decanter and pours himself a drink; he says, “well, that was easier than I thought.”  Victor comes in and tells Brady that he thinks his little scheme was derived by PUI; Brady asks what that is, and Victor answers, “Planning Under the Influence.”  He says, “what if she has an alibi?”  Eve sits in the police station; says she would ‘kill’ for a drink right now.  Rafe says she may want to refrain from using that word; she says to herself, “Brady has messed with the wrong woman.”
