 Rafe
runs through the woods when the two guards from the mental hospital corner
him. They tell him that it's all over. He backs away and falls into the
ravine. Meanwhile, RoboRafe is startled when he's trying to fix his car and
Ciara and Theo show up. They ask him not to tell anyone he saw them. Ciara
begs him not to make them go back. "That's cool by me," he shrugs. He makes
Ciara promise not to tell anyone she saw him. Theo's reluctant to promise
and this makes RoboRafe angry. When Theo is about to run off, RoboRafe grabs
him. Nicole,
EJ and her sister return to Casa DiMera. She talks about how hard the week
has been and suggests they drink oceans of liquor. Taylor announces that she
can't stay there any longer. Nicole demands to know why. Taylor and EJ
stare. Taylor claims that her being there doesn't make sense anymore. Elvis
gets a call and then says Theo's gone missing. Taylor rushes off to see
Lexi. Nicole wishes she had the kids to hug. EJ sits and drinks. She worries
about how the kids will handle losing Rafe. This annoys him and he tells her
Rafe doesn't even like children. Stefano shows up and sends Nicole away. He
rants to his son about Brady women tormenting DiMera men. EJ warns him that
Nicole is on high alert and they have to keep her calm so she won't see the
divorce coming. "This is about that bookkeeper who won't do you while you're
married to her sister," Stefano blurts out in disgust. He wishes his son
would think with his brain. He gets cruder and that makes EJ angry. "Ay ay
ay!" his father groans. A call comes in. The orderly tells Stefano that Rafe
is dead. At
the pier, Maggie orders Mel to stop bullying Chloe. The diva is sent away
and Mel tells the redhead she was just defending herself. They bicker and
Mel whines about how horrid Chloe is. Mel claims she's sick of pretending to
be a good person. Maggie assures her that she really is a good person and
Chloe can be too if people give her a chance. "What about what I need?" Mel
asks. She doesn't understand anything anymore, sobs and runs away.
Meanwhile, Chloe and Nicole meet up at the Cheatin' Heart. The diva fills
her in on Philip leaving with Parker. Nicole tells her about her suspicions
concerning EJ and Rafe's accident. When Nicole walks off, she spots Viv
dropping some paper in the trash. She picks it up and sees that it's the DNA
results for a 'prisoner'. At
the mansion, Brady and Victor bicker. Brady warns him that he's on
'probation' until he proves he can behave. Later, Mel shows up and mopes to
Brady. Victor eavesdrops as Brady counsels her. The mustache steps in and
assures her that Maggie is really angry at him and being stubborn. After he
leaves, Brady assures Mel that he will always be on her side and give her a
shoulder to cry on. She thanks him and they hug. Meanwhile, Victor runs into
Maggie and thanks her. He says that Brady has had a mature change of heart
and he assumes that has something to do with her. He warns her to be careful
with Chloe. "She's so needy she's dangerous," he says. Over at the pub, Viv
and Gus are discussing the DNA results he got. She thinks they've hit a dead
end. He tries making some calls and she decides to use her feminine wiles. At
Casa Da Bo, Hope gets a tip about Ciara. She tells her husband and they go
down to the station to see the homeless girl who saw their daughter. She
recognizes Hope. "You're that whack-job who ran around clocking dudes," she
says. She doesn't want to help so Bo threatens to sell her out to a pimp if
she doesn't help them get their daughter back. The girl tells them all she
knows. Bo runs off to the woods and finds RoboRafe with the kids. Back at
Casa da Bo, Taylor arrives to see Lexi and tells her about the accident with
EJ and being trapped on his lap for an hour. "It got pretty intense," she
explains, so she's leaving town. She thanks Lexi for being so helpful.
 After
finding the DNA tests in the trash, Nicole wonders what her husband has been
up to. She heads back to the Cheatin' Heart to drink with Chloe. She tells
the diva about what she found and how there was a prisoner in the basement
of Casa DiMera. "I think it was Rafe," she says. They gulp martinis. Nicole
brings up all the things Stefano did to John Black. Chloe finds all of this
confusing. Her friend shows her the paper and says that it proves EJ took
over Rafe's mind. Chloe thinks she should be scared if this is true. Nicole
ponders how EJ could have managed to change Rafe. She decides that she's
just spent the last half hour in crazy land and they should forget this.
Nicole departs, leaving the diva to read some court papers. At
Casa DiMera, Stefano tells his son that Rafe went off a cliff. "That ought
to teach him to look where he's going," EJ laughs. He's impressed by how
tidy his plan has gone. Taylor comes in to say that the kids have been
tracked down. Stefano is thrilled and runs off to tell Kate. She thinks they
should go out for some fresh air. After they leave, Taylor repeats to EJ
that she's leaving. "What if Nicole went?" he asks. He explains that he's
divorcing Nicole. She worries that will break her sister's heart and refuses
to allow it. He claims that he's only trying to do the right thing. She
tells him he can find another woman to love next month. He claims that he
loves that Nicole allows him to be himself but he still isn't in love with
her. Taylor doesn't want to help him make her sister roadkill. He thinks
that's always been Nicole's destiny. Every second he's with her, he's just
living a lie. She's not convinced that he's trying to be altruistic. Taylor
becomes distraught but he insists that they are doing the right thing.
Before he walks out, she breaks down. She doesn't know what to do so they
start kissing. Nicole walks in and spots them. Outside
the pub, Stefano's not impressed when Lexi asks him over the phone to stay
back and give Theo some time to decompress. He wants to tell Chad the news.
Kate points out that he's with Abby in the pub. She calls him and tells him
about Theo and then asks him to meet her at the pier so he can fix her text
messaging machine. Once Chad leaves the pub, Stefano sneaks in to join Abby.
She guesses that he's there to ask her to talk Chad into going to work with
him. Meanwhile, Chad meets with Kate and asks why she really wanted to see
him. She warns him that EJ is about to ask Nicole for a divorce. "He's a
real charmer," Chad snipes. Later, Stefano joins them and Chad says that he
will be working with his father after all. Out
in the woods, RoboRafe grabs Theo when he wants to run off. Bo shows up. He
tells his daughter that nothing that happened between he and Hope was her
fault. They can never be happy without her. He hugs her and says that
running away is never the answer. RoboRafe rolls his eyes. Bo calls Hope and
puts Ciara on the line. RoboRafe gives the family bonding scene the stink
eye. They head back to the station. The kids are hungry so they go off to
eat. Bo asks RoboRafe how he found the kids. RoboRafe gives a convoluted
explanation which Bo swallows. He takes RoboRafe home so Lexi and Abe can
thank him. RoboRafe waits for the beer and cupcakes Bo promised him. He
watches Hope tell her daughter how happy they are now and makes her promise
to talk to them about her worries. Hope leaves him to play with the kids. As
he's about to escape, Bo tells him that he needs to give an official
statement before he leaves town. Meanwhile, Rafe crawls through the bushes
by the ravine.
