John and Steve wait for a
ransom call; Marlena offers her advice about Orphius’ psyche. She talks about why he kidnapped her all
those years ago, what his motivation was and what saved her; Steve says he is
sure Joey is smart enough to keep himself alive. John assures Kayla that Orphius has to keep Joey alive, too,
because he’s his ticket to twenty million dollars (which he won’t see a cent of
if Joey isn’t safe). Kayla still
insists that there is no guarantee she will ever see her son again. Joey tries to connect with Orphius when
pictures of children fall from his coat pocket. He talks about how he despised his dad when he first came back;
but gave him another chance after all.
He suggests maybe Orphius could have another chance with his kids.
Abe is still in critical condition, but he
is still conscious; he asks Kayla if he is going to make it or not. Theo waits to see him; he is nervous. Ciara tries to comfort him, but Claire comes
running in and jumps into his arms; they talk about how they missed each other
and how worried he was about her. Ciara
looks disappointed. Theo goes in; Abe
thanks him for holding his hand last night and tells him he knew he was there,
even though he was out of it. He tells Theo
how proud he is of him; Theo says this should not have happened to him. He gets upset and leaves; the girls are
surprised when they find Theo is already gone.
At the station, Rafe gets a call and Hope gets a bouquet of flowers,
with a note demanding her appearance for a “date” in a hotel room. Creepy.
She goes; he waits there to talk to her about the move to Oregon… she
scoffs at the idea, especially when he suggests Ciara might come with
them. She gets good and angry and tells
him to go ahead and push her; he committed a crime too – she tells him, if he
keeps this up, she will make sure everyone knows that Chase shot his mother
dead. Interesting. He says she has no proof; she says he told
her himself. He covered it up; he says
he destroyed any evidence of that night.
What he has, he says, could send her and others to prison for the rest
of their lives; think about it, he tells her.
Rafe calls. She makes up a story
about following a lead; tells him she will be back soon. Aiden continues harping on her about
covering up Steffano’s murder, telling her even if she doesn’t want to save
herself, she needs to consider whether she really wants to destroy Roman and
Rafe’s lives as well. She recalls when she
went to his beach house; and a cryptic note she found from his dead wife. She leaves in tears.
She comes into the office and snaps at Rafe
when he tries to get food for her to eat; he apologizes for upsetting her. She says she’s sorry; she blames it on no
sleep. He tells her its okay; she tells
him she just is so confused, she doesn’t know who she is anymore. She tells him they need to take a break all of the sudden; Rafe is stunned.
