Hope and Aiden get home; he reassures her that he is not pushing, but asks if they can do dinner.  She passes on his offer, but says they are moving in the right direction.  As Chad sleeps, he recalls Andre telling him about the downed plane, envisioning Abby, him holding Thomas, Jen coming in and telling him Abby is dead – she says he killed her.  He screams No!  He wakes up.  Jen is there, but assures him it was just a dream.  Rafe (where ever he is) is knocked unconscious and falls to the floor; it’s Andre.  He sets a bomb up on a table and tells Rafe to try to get out of this one…although he’s still out cold.  Andre gets a phone call, ignores it, then listens to it.  Rafe wakes, chained to a wall, with his arms bound together.  He calls out; Andre watches from a distance; he smiles.  Rafe looks down to see that he is wired up to the bomb.  

Jennifer tells Chad he needs to hold it together; his anxiety is affecting Thomas.  She asks to take the baby for a couple of days; Chad is offended and says no.  She pleads with him to be reasonable, but he refuses to let her take him; he puts Thomas down for a nap (the baby playing Thomas now is cute). When he takes him out for a walk in the stroller later, a lady asks where mommy is today – Chad recalls the letter again; starts to feel light-headed and sits down.  His phone rings; it’s the search team… he tells them to add more men if necessary.  Julie and Doug tell Jennifer she may have to sue for custody, for Thomas’ own good if Chad doesn’t pull himself together.  Julie and Doug continue to talk about it; Jen says she should talk to Chad again; says she’d rather avoid a battle.  But then she comes home and announces her decision; calls Chad to tell him she is filing for custody.  

Shawn tells Hope that Tate Black was kidnapped; she asks for the file.  He also gives her an envelope and tells her he is sorry(?).  Hope looks through the envelope – it’s blood work on Aiden; it’s a match… but for what?
