Rafe calls to check on Hope, as he tells his brother that Aiden Jennings is the new D.A.; he is concerned about her reaction to this turn of events.  Hope walks into Aiden’s office; she tells him that she can’t believe he is in charge of putting criminals behind bars.  She tells him there is no way she will ever think he is a good guy.  As she roughly reaches out and straightens his tie, Rafe walks in.  Rafe tells her that she needs to be careful because now that Justin is the D.A., he could be a threat to them.  He tells her they have to tow the line, as cops, because if Justin finds out what they did, he will come down on them hard.  Hope takes out her badge and throws it on the table, and leaves.  

Victor posts bond after his hearing and Justin brings him home; Maggie is there… he promises her he did not set up Tates’s kidnapping.  He tells her that thinks Deimos had something to do with it; tells her that he can stand everyone else not believing him, but he needs her to.  Nicole goes to see Deimos.   

Philip and Chloe announce to Kate that she is pregnant with is child; Kate questions whether it is actually his child – he tells her it is not up to her to question.  She leaves; she calls Deimos pretending to be a nurse at an obstetrician’s office, asking for Chloe, saying she left that number on file.  Then apologizes for bothering him, saying she sees another cell phone number.  He tells Nicole that he needs to go take care of something and invites her to stay at his house; she says she has things to do too, so they both leave.  Philip leaves Chloe at a table as he goes to take a phone call; Deimos shows up to talk to Chloe.  He tells her he heard she was pregnant; she tells him the baby is Philips but he says he doesn’t believe her.  Philip comes back to the table and tells him it doesn’t matter if he believes it or not.  

Adrian runs into Justin; she questions why he lost his job…he doesn’t really want to explain.  Brady and Teresa talk; she tells him Maggie came home today and she would like to go visit her – she agrees not to go in if Victor is there.  Maggie is happy to see Tate, but tells them she doesn’t have long because she has a physical therapy session soon.  Nicole tells Dario that she is dating Deimos now; he is not happy about it (secretly, I believe, he fell in love with her), but he tells her he will respect her decision.  She hugs him sweetly, but he doesn’t really reciprocate.  When she goes back to see Deimos, he tells her Chloe is pregnant with is child… this news makes her uneasy and she tells him she needs to go think before she says anything.  Aiden comes to see Kate in her new ‘home’…they toast to “world domination” starting with Salem.
