11-13-2017 (Monday) Will Theo Survive?

Claire complains to Tripp about Theo ‘bailing’ on her tonight; she says he had something better to do.  She says he’s just trying to make her feel better when he says there couldn’t be anything better to do than hang out with her.  Claire laughs about how she isn’t smart about “world things” (politics, history and such) and Tripp tells her that’s not nearly as important as being able to write things that make people feel good.  She tells him what she told Theo and he says that probably didn’t make him feel very good.  Claire proceeds to compliment Tripp, using words like “passion” and “intensity” and saying she is always the “opposite of bored” when she is with him.  He says it would probably be better not to tell Theo that they are “captivated by each other.”

When JJ tells the man he is chasing to "drop the weapon" and he turns around, with it still in his hand; JJ shoots... Theo falls to the ground.  JJ can not believe it when he goes to put cuffs on the man and rolls him over to see that it is Theo.  Lani rushes to her brother's side and tries desperately to stop the blood flow; the wound appears to be just above his heart.  Claire wonders why Theo isn’t coming home yet.  Doug and Julie, Abe and Valerie all sit and talk after the party, about “the younger days” and the great times they had back then.  Julie says she likes seeing Lani and JJ bringing their families together again; Abe says he used to have reservations about JJ being with Lani, but he has “come around.”  The ambulance arrives; when they load Theo onto a stretcher and roll him away, JJ turns around and throws up behind the fountain.

Sammi finds Paul and tells him that Will’s grave was empty; Paul tells her he already knows “because,” he says, he “saw him…at a bar in Memphis.”  Sammi gets angry at Paul for not saying something sooner.  Rafe goes back to talk to Susan; he tells her he knows that she lied to them and he isn’t going anywhere until she tells him where Will Horton is.  Susan is not cooperative; she mentions something about ‘her’ son dying; Rafe looks confused by this comment.  She tells him to get out… he goes to the hospital, looking for Sammi; Paul tells him that she and Sonny left an hour ago, to go see Will – he tells Rafe, Will has been working at a “local bar.”

When Sonny says Will’s name and hugs the bartender Paul told him about, the man stands coldly; he tells Sonny he doesn’t know anybody named Will.  The bartender insists he is not Will Horton, and that he doesn’t even know who Sonny is; Sonny decides kissing him might “trigger [his] memory” but …the man pushes him off and tells him “that crossed the line.”  He threatens to kick Sonny’s ass, then Sammi walks in; she runs up and hugs him, smiling and crying at the same time.  The guy looks really confused.  Sammi insists that she knows him and that he was the most amazing thing; he tells them he doesn’t know them and she doesn’t care that he doesn’t know them.  He says they are both crazy and asks them again to leave; Sammi begs him to look at them… he calls out, “mom” and Susan walks in the door.

When Susan tells the man, whom she calls, ‘her’ son, that this woman is Sammi, he says he knows about her and calls her a “lying, cheating whore.”  Rafe comes, also insisting that he is Will; the man says his name is not Will, it is “E.J.”  Paul calls his dad and says he has something to tell him.  When Abe gets to the hospital and asks who in the hell shot his son, JJ says, “I did.”
