The Human Thermometer.
Billie
strolls into the day spa and checks out some guy's ass. She's startled when
she realizes it's Daniel's. They chat about how hard she's been working and
he says that it must be helping Bo that she's by his side. She just wishes
he'd wake up and asks him if Bo can really recover. Billie boxes a bit. That
impresses the doctor but he thinks her footwork should improve. They start
hopping around and she punches him in the gut. He's winded but checks her
hand to make sure it's okay. That makes her uncomfortable. "I know your MO.
You feel someone's glands, take their liver out and... all of a sudden, Dr.
Dan is in love!" she moans. She accuses him of trying to seduce three
generations of her family. He insists he has no interest in her. She backs
down.
Abe
runs into Lexi at the pub. She lets him sit with her. They awkwardly talk
about Theo and then her 'evil family'. Abe wants her and their son back. He
misses them so much and doesn't think their marriage should end over the
election scandal. They discuss their son and she admits that she told him
the truth about what happened. "He knows that you're not one of the good
guys anymore," she says, explaining that Theo doesn't even want to see him.
This upsets him. He asks her to tell their son how much he loves him. "The
most important thing my mother taught me was to keep the faith," he says.
Lexi's not sure she can trust him again. He vows to prove he can be trusted.
She walks away.
Rafe
shows up at Nicole's. She hides her pregnancy pamphlet and lets him in. He
just wanted to make sure that she's okay after being harassed by EJ. She
beats herself up for helping Elvis get elected. They discuss food and he
opens his paperbag full of greasy food. She pukes. He feels her head. "What
are you? A human thermometer?" she asks. After some probing, he guesses she
is pregnant. She confirms it. He nearly pukes. Nicole tells him this has to
stay a secret. Rafe reminds her that it didn't work when Sami tried to pull
that. She admits that she's having mixed feelings. The baby is a miracle,
but she thinks she'll die if anything happens to it. They discuss what she
will do. She thinks she'll leave town. He keeps telling her to stay hydrated
and see a doctor. She admits she's seen Daniel and then pukes again. When
comes out of the bathroom, she collapses on the bed.
Lucas
stops by Sami's office and offers to help her with the mole investigation.
"You don't have to play whack a mole with me. Your son needs you," she says.
He explains what happened with Will and Elvis. Lucas thinks that their son
will be okay in the end but Sami has a fit. She worries that she screwed him
up for life. They argue about whether their son knows what he's doing or
not. He starts searching the computer for info on the mole. She confesses
that she's the mole. He's furious. This gives him a headache. She insists
that she's totally loyal to his mom now. "It's just so you!" he complains.
He lectures her. She's tired of the 'Sami bashing' but Lucas keeps it up and
accuses her of ruining their son.

Man's Best Friend..
Rafe
is at Nicole's fussing over her. She doesn't think he should be worrying
about her since he doesn't even like her. He calls Daniel over. When she
tries to stand up, she falls over. The doctor sets up an IV for her. He
lectures her about eating properly and insists that someone stay with her.
She doesn't have anyone so Rafe offers. Once Daniel leaves, Rafe asks Nicole
again if keeping her pregnancy secret is really wise. He knows how much
suffering it caused Sami and doubts it was worth it. She wonders if he plans
to take Sami back. "No," he says. When he admits that he kissed Carrie, she
asks if he loves her. "You really are in trouble," she says. Once she gets
into her jammies, she challenges him to truth or dare. He dares her to go to
sleep. They both recognize how weird all of this is but she thanks him for
sticking around. She feels stupid. He touches her hand and assures her that
everything will be okay.
EJ
is at Casa DiMera trying to write a speech about how he is man's best
friend. Kate comes in, looks at it, and ask if Johnny wrote it. He wants his
PR person back. Kate thinks a blow up doll could do Nicole's job. EJ feels
lost without her. He mopes. She tells him to get over it. "DiMeras don't
sulk," she says, telling him to concentrate on his career and children. Kate
vaguely explains that she's working on something involving the children
which will right past wrongs. He orders her to stop whatever it is she's up
to and then walks off. Elvis heads over to Nicole's and walks into her room.
He finds a shirtless Rafe standing by her bed. "You didn't like to keep your
bed very empty for long Sweetheart!" EJ says. Nicole doesn't appreciate him
breaking in and acting like a victim. "Once you're a whore, you're always a
whore," EJ sneers. Rafe punches him the face. Elvis flicks his blood at Rafe
and tells him he'll regret this. "Get yourself checked out mate. Believe me,
you don't know where she's been," EJ quips before walking out. Nicole
screams and throws a glass at the door.
Mel meets up with Abby at the coffee house. She starts congratulating her on
coming clean until Abby stops her to explain that she didn't. Mel lectures
her. Abby explains that Carrie left Austin for Rafe. Mel still think she
should come clean so they can have a 'secret free' relationship. Abby
swallows that. When she leaves, Daniel shows up. He chats to his daughter
until Kate interrupts and starts sniping. Mel runs off. Kate quizzes Daniel
about Billie. "You stay away from my daughter," she orders. He says she has
no idea what she's talking about and suggests she see a witch doctor for her
paranoia.
Gabi
drops in on Chad at his place. She shows him their first magazine ad and
says they will be famous. She gets excited about this and hugs him. He's not
that thrilled about fame and fortune. She thinks that's because he was
spoiled and tells him tales of how she has had to struggle to earn a living.
Mel calls and plans a date with Chad tomorrow night. As they make plans for
the Burger Barn, Gabi hides one of her earrings in the bedsheets.
Austin
is drinking at the pub and chatting with Kayla. Jack arrives and sits down
with him. Austin is uncomfortable. They begin discussing Austin's love life.
He's nervous but Jack obviously doesn't know the Abby story. Jack explains
that he's writing a book about his time in Afghanistan. When Austin mentions
he has to write some articles, Jack offers to help. Later, Abby shows up.
She's about to talk to Austin when she notices Jack is there. She asks her
dad to leave them alone to discuss work. Kayla interrupts to see that she
got a tip Bo might be recovering and asks one of them to lock up. Austin
offers and rushes away to start getting ready for close.

niece? Dude! What's the matter with you?" Lucas wonders. Austin says he has
no feelings for Abby and points out that Carrie loves Rafe. Sami barks and

lot with you," Lucas snipes. They rehash when it happened with Sami. She

think she deserves an answer and walks out. Carrie joins him. They look

on. Lucas tells Sami and his brother how amazing his fiancee is. The

will clear his name. Meanwhile, Kate tells EJ that this is everything his

how proud he is. His compliments make her paranoid. He knows he hasn't been

for him and he doesn't want to hear that question again. They head down to
the square and meet Billie and Kate. The rivals bicker. Ian talks about how
much he enjoys watching women fight. Once they walk away, Billie tells her
mom that it's a shame that Ian's married because she thinks he's attractive.

furious with her, but should have listened to her and come clean with
Carrie. He's sorry about what happened to her mom. She's impressed by how
nice he is being and tells him that all of this is her fault. He gushes
about how sorry he is until she stops him. He just wants them to stop seeing

takes out a photo of Marlena. He shows them that he has a video
feed of her. John curses. One of Stefano's goons starts flirting

thought her old enemy would be this stupid. Sami tries telling
her the whole story and blames everything on Madison. She moans
about how much time she has given up with her kids for work.
"All that proves is that you're about as loyal a mother as you
are an employee," Kate snipes. Sami explains that she could have
taken her down but didn't and that proves how loyal she is. Kate

make her wait for it. She advises her to go home and hold her

and gets awkward. He gets back to work and Lucas takes his son
aside to say that someone might get the wrong idea if they saw
what he just saw. Will says it was nothing. "I know you're
straight," Lucas says. His son thinks he's overreacting. As they
discuss Sonny, Kate arrives and listens in as Lucas tells his
son to watch himself or he'll be treated like a second class
citizen. Kate decides to interrupt. Will walks off to get a
drink. She rants about Sami. Her son thinks Sami was just
getting even with her. Kate wants to take custody of the
children. Lucas is miffed and storms out. Kate sits down with
Will and asks him if what Lucas was saying about Sonny was
hitting close to home. Will gulps. Kate makes it clear that she
knows he's gay and that's why his father was making him
uncomfortable. "Your secret is safe with me," she assures him.

returns to the loft. He sadly walks around and looks at family
pictures. Marlena walks in and assumes he's missing Sami. He
does but he needs to move on. She wonders if he's ready or if he
can still forgive Sami. Rafe doesn't think she can love anyone
more than she loves herself. He's finished fighting for her. She
leaves. Sami arrives. They sit down to talk. He tells her that
he can't do this anymore. She begs for a chance but he turns her
down. "It's over. We're over," he declares. She doesn't
understand this so he keeps explaining it. The person he fell in
love with was just a lie. She tells him he can't turn off his
love for her. "Maybe I can't but you sure as hell did when you
slept with EJ," he says. She keeps pleading. They go over it for

it is the worst thing she's ever done. Carrie wonders if this is
just another lie. "None of it was real," Abby admits. Her mom
asks her not to lie to protect him but Abby insists she's not.

reciprocated her feelings. Carrie finally believes her and
proves it by slapping 'the bitch'. Jenn and Jack hold her back.
Jenn starts apologizing for her daughter. Austin lectures Abby
for turning his life into a train wreck. She just wants to make
things right. Carrie cries and runs away. Austin chases after
her. Abby sobs to her parents about how everyone will know what
she's done. Meanwhile, Austin finds his wife in her office and

made love!'' she blurts out. Jack and Jenn walk by right as she says this.
Jack hopes he didn't just hear that. Austin stutters through an apology.

say it was her choice and she's an adult. Austin wants to take
responsibility for what he's done. Jenn rants at him about how disgusting
this is. Abby defends him. Finally, she admits that they didn't actually
have sex: she made it all up. 
Rafe
returns to Nicole's with food. She's worried about EJ discovering her secret
and doesn't understand why Rafe is so keen to help her. She reminds him that
he used her in the past. He insists that isn't the case now and tells her to
rest. Nicole thinks he's been a great friend lately but she's feeling
paranoid. The discuss EJ coming after them and how Sami will react. He
doesn't care. She's glad Sami is getting what she deserves. He offers Nicole
some chicken soup. She wants to puke so they decide to go outside instead.
They head to the pub and she stuffs her face until he mentions EJ. That
ruins her appetite. She prods him to share his miseries. He says that he
wasn't thinking when he was with Sami: he was in love. Nicole tells him
'many, many, many guys have gone down that road' and they usually end up
drunk. She just wishes she could finally find a trustworthy man but she has
no hope. He is not really hopeful either but she assures him he deserves
happiness. They go back to her room and she tries probing him about Carrie.
Sami
shows up for work late. She senses that her boss is hostile. ''You've been
keeping secrets,'' says Kate. She pulls out a folder full of enough evidence
to sink Sami. The blond plays stupid. ''You're a liar!'' Kate blurts out.
She demands answers immediately. Sami tries putting the blame on Madison.
''You are caught you deceitful witch! Now, I'm going to ruin you,'' Kate
declares.
In
Alamaina, John and Stefano bark at each other over the video
feed. John's sure he'll never really have them shot. Hope starts
calling him names. They keep talking around the issue. Stefano
takes out a photo of Marlena. He shows them that he has a video
feed of her. John curses. One of Stefano's goons starts flirting
with Marlena. She squints. John gasps.
At
CW, Kate yells at Sami to stop lying. She's always known that
she is the mole and she's finished toying with her. Kate never
thought her old enemy would be this stupid. Sami tries telling
her the whole story and blames everything on Madison. She moans
about how much time she has given up with her kids for work.
"All that proves is that you're about as loyal a mother as you
are an employee," Kate snipes. Sami explains that she could have
taken her down but didn't and that proves how loyal she is. Kate
still wants to turn her over to the cops, but she's going to
make her wait for it. She advises her to go home and hold her
children because she won't be able to do it for much longer.
Will
drops in at the coffee house to check it out and see Sonny, who
offers him a coffee for life card. They wrestle around for it
and lock eyes. Lucas walks in and spots them. Sonny notices him
and gets awkward. He gets back to work and Lucas takes his son
aside to say that someone might get the wrong idea if they saw
what he just saw. Will says it was nothing. "I know you're
straight," Lucas says. His son thinks he's overreacting. As they
discuss Sonny, Kate arrives and listens in as Lucas tells his
son to watch himself or he'll be treated like a second class
citizen. Kate decides to interrupt. Will walks off to get a
drink. She rants about Sami. Her son thinks Sami was just
getting even with her. Kate wants to take custody of the
children. Lucas is miffed and storms out. Kate sits down with
Will and asks him if what Lucas was saying about Sonny was
hitting close to home. Will gulps. Kate makes it clear that she
knows he's gay and that's why his father was making him
uncomfortable. "Your secret is safe with me," she assures him.
Rafe
returns to the loft. He sadly walks around and looks at family
pictures. Marlena walks in and assumes he's missing Sami. He
does but he needs to move on. She wonders if he's ready or if he
can still forgive Sami. Rafe doesn't think she can love anyone
more than she loves herself. He's finished fighting for her. She
leaves. Sami arrives. They sit down to talk. He tells her that
he can't do this anymore. She begs for a chance but he turns her
down. "It's over. We're over," he declares. She doesn't
understand this so he keeps explaining it. The person he fell in
love with was just a lie. She tells him he can't turn off his
love for her. "Maybe I can't but you sure as hell did when you
slept with EJ," he says. She keeps pleading. They go over it for
twenty minutes. She keeps telling him he loves her. He tells her
to get a lawyer and says he'll always love the children. After
he leaves, she heads out and bumps into Lucas. They discuss his
mom. She moans about what a bad day she's having.
In
the square, Abby comes clean to Jack, Jenn, Austin and Carrie
that she and the professor never actually had sex. Fibbing about
it is the worst thing she's ever done. Carrie wonders if this is
just another lie. "None of it was real," Abby admits. Her mom
asks her not to lie to protect him but Abby insists she's not.
She tells Carrie what a great guy Austin is and how he never
reciprocated her feelings. Carrie finally believes her and
proves it by slapping 'the bitch'. Jenn and Jack hold her back.

for turning his life into a train wreck. She just wants to make
things right. Carrie cries and runs away. Austin chases after
her. Abby sobs to her parents about how everyone will know what
she's done. Meanwhile, Austin finds his wife in her office and
asks her if this changes things for them.
