Sorry, Wrong Number
Mimi tells Belle she must stop beating herself up like this, "Phillip will be OK."
"I may never have a chance to make things up with Phillip," sobs Belle.
Mimi asks, "Are you saying you're giving up on Shawn?"
"Yes, that's what I am saying. I have no choice. Shawn and I are through."
Shawn doesn't know what Jan did to him last summer but he wants her to admit it. There's some twisted Shawn logic for you. Whatever happened to break up Belle and him, it's her fault.
Jan points out Shawn left Belle because she lied to him about her mother. Yes, he admits, he left her but he didn't break up with her. More logic from Shawn's world. He says he was wrong to do that. Shawn tells Jan he doesn't remember proposing to her, just being locked up in a cage with her. Jan says, "We just got a little kinky. All couples do. Even after your accident, your dirty little mind can't forget all the fun we had." His dirty little mind can't remember much, but he flashes back to the loooovvve cage.
"No, something else is happening here and when I figure that out, you're going down, Jan. When I come back, I want you gone." He says he's going for a walk to clear his head. That will be a short walk.
Jan asks, "Why go for a walk when you can ride? That's right, lover, I got your bike fixed. How'd you like to take me for a little spin?" Shawn stares.
Billie tells Ricardo he has given them concrete proof Georgia is didn't die. Billie turns morose and tells Bo this little lock of hair may be all they ever have of their daughter. Bo promises, "This little lock of hair will lead us to finding our daughter."
Nicole and Brady stop at John's to check on him. They open the door, "OMG, what happened?" Nicole tells him there is a note, "Here, you're not going to like this."
John struggles down at the dock. He flashes back to his encounter with Stami. He huffs. He grunts. He agonizes, "I shouldn't have taken those drugs. But I had to. I couldn't just lay there when Belle needs me." He visualizes Marlena, "Oh, Doc, you're the only one who can help me. I can't make it without you."
"We meet again," says Stami.
Marlena screams for Roman. Roman comforts her. It was a nightmare. They were in the future. They were really old and still right there. Roman was dead. Roman stares the blank stare of the dead.
Jack and Jennifer discover each other. It's her. It's him. She did that hair thing. She thought he was dead. She had given up on him. Jack says they can have the happy reunion later. Right now he needs to get inside and call the police. He says there is another woman in there that looks like Jennifer. "That's the one I saw," says Jennifer, "What's going on?" Jack rushes her into the house.
Jack picks up the phone to call the police while Jennifer runs into the kitchen. As he is dialing she says ominously, "Hang up the phone, Jack." She's got the drop on him.
"You're the imposter," he says. He asks who she is and what she wants.
"I'm just here to take care of a little business, Jack. Your little wife almost got in the way."
"Jennifer," he screams.
"Jack," says the alleged real Jennifer, "It can't be."
Bo assures Billie Georgia is real, "but right now, I have to get over to Shawn's. He'll come around, but we have some things to work through."
Billie tells him, "You know those problems you and Hope have been having because of me - you'll work those out, too, because you're family. I know how lucky you are."
Bo tells Billie she and Georgia are part of his family.
"You are right, Nicole, this is not good," says BB.
"Going out to get some air," asks Nicole, "At least he could have come up with something more original." Well, that's more original than "Going out to mainline." Nicole wants to know where Kate is. BB says Kate can't watch John 24-7. Besides, John gave his word he wouldn't use anymore. Nicole knows exactly where to look for him. Off they go on their wild junkie chase.
John tells Stami, "I thought I told you to stay away from me."
"Like I said," stammers Stami, "I'm your friend - here to lend you a helping hand. You don't seem to be in much pain. I wonder why. Oh, yes, I can see it in your eyes. Poor John, just a common junkie. Not to worry, Stan's your man." So to speak.
"I know you from somewhere," grunts John.
Mimi, the same Mimi who just a while ago told Belle it was good she had kicked Shawn out, now tells her she doesn't know if this is a good decision. She doesn't know if Belle is in any mental state to be making a big decision like that. Belle blubbers. She blames herself for the situation Phillip is in. Gee, I would never have guessed that.
Hope walks in on Shawn and Jan. She goes berserk, "Jan, what are you doing trying to put Shawn back on a motorcycle when he's just had two wrecks and has a suspended license." Shawn is running out of brain matter and Salem is running out of stained glass windows, too. Hope tells Jan she is desperate enough to keep Shawn she will do anything, including seeing him wind up in jail, "I'll be damned if I let you get away with it."
Marlena says her dream was some kind of prophecy. Roman doesn't believe it for a second. They will either find a way to escape or someone will find them. Marlena isn't buying it. She thinks they will be there until they die.
"Jennifer," yells Jack. Fake Jennifer tells him it would be a mistake if he tried to run for the door, "Shut up or I will blow your head off."
The alleged Genuine Jen tells herself she swears she just heard someone calling her name. She tries to talk herself out of it, "There's no one even home."
Counterfeit Jennifer tells Jack the last thing either of them wants is for Genuine Jen to walk through the door right now. He wants to know how she pulled it off. "Count DiMera knows all, MWAHAHAHAHAHA. And now that our little secret is out, I won't be needing this..." She yanks off her disguise revealing Sami.
Oh, sorry, I got my story lines mixed up there for a second.
"Just like that girl in Alias," says Jack.
"Yeah, except I work for the bad guys. And the bad guy is paying me to get your sorry little butt back to the chamber of horrors ASAP."
"No," says Jack, "I just got here. I'm not going back. Never. You'll have to kill me first."
Billie says Bo doesn't have to try to make her feel better. Bo assures her she and Georgia are family. Billie apologizes for coming down so hard on Hope earlier. Bo reminds Billie Hope has lost a child, too. Hasn't everyone in Salem? Oh, Billie is soooooo sorry. How insensitive of her. Bo has to go. Billie is just going to finish her coffee and go over the file some more. The klutz drops the file. She discovers something. "OMG," says Bo, "we could use this to find Georgia."
Nicole and Brady have scoured the seedy side of Salem and haven't found John. They will keep looking.
"Yeah," says John, "There's somethin' about you all right." Stami says John does know him - he's the friend who gave him his last fix. John says, "I'm not buying what you're selling. You have no idea who you're dealing with, punk. I'm ISA [Incompetent Salem Agent], I could run you in right now."
"Yeah," says Stami, "but you won't because of our relationship."
"We got no relationship," yells John. We take a stroll through the mellow world of Cheech and Chong with John the Junkie.
Mimi tells Belle once again, "Yada, yada, yada, blah, blah blah, not your fault, yada, blah."
Jan tells Hope to chill out. She would never do anything to hurt Shawn. Hope tells her to "Hit the road." Just like Shawn did.
Hope comes down on Shawn like a load of bricks. Shawn has a lotta 'splainin to do. Hope wants to know what is going on between Shawn and Belle. Shawn says, "That makes two of us."
Roman tells Marlena he doesn't understand why she's giving up like this. We, however, know it's because it's her turn to give up. Next time it will be Roman's turn to give up and we can sit through the same drivel only it will be Marlena telling Roman not to give up. Roman says Marlena is feeling guilty because they are getting closer. He says they will find a way out of there. "And if we don't," asks Marlena, "what then?"
Jack tells Fake Jen she wouldn't dare pull the trigger. All his blood would be a dead giveaway, "no pun intended." It would tell everyone he was alive. It would put a crimp in Tony's plans. He stops cold, "Jennifer..."
"Odd," thinks Genuine Jen, "that someone would be leaving a living room light on.
"No! Jennifer," says Jack, "Go away."
"Looks like this is about to get interesting," says Fake Jen.
"My God, Bo," says Billie, "I can't believe we missed this. Our baby's footprints. They're so tiny." Bo is going to fax this over to the police lab.
BB tells Nicole, "We've checked every dive on the east side. How are we supposed to find him?"
John asks Stami what he wants. "I am going to have my REVENGE," thinks Stami. He wants to help John with his pain, "In exactly the way you deserve."
If Phillip makes it through this, Belle vows to do everything she can to make him happy. Even shut up? She hates that she has to hurt Shawn, but Phillip is her priority.
Shawn tells Hope, "There is nothing to explain. Belle has been faithful to Phillip and it doesn't look like that's going to change anytime soon."
"Move," says Fake Jen. "If you let Jennifer see you, you're both dead."
"Maybe I did leave a light on for Abby when she comes home," thinks Genuine Jen. She leaves.
"Thank God, Jennifer," thinks Jack, as he sees her go.
"That was close," says Fake Jen, "Now you know what you have to do."
"Yeah, I do," says Jack. He slugs her, "Tell DiMera that was for me." He yells "JENNIFER!"
Genuine Jen thinks, "I could swear I just heard Jack call my name."
Mimi says we can just hope and Pray Phillip's all right and Belle won't have to make any decisions right now. Mimi is going to go check on Rex and see if he's had any luck hacking into that really secure Government website. Belle thanks her.
Shawn says he has nothing more to say. Jan comes back in and says, "Too bad, Mrs. Brady. Let's hit the road Shawn." Shawn says he's going. Mimi walks in as Hope yells, "SHAWN DOUGLAS!" Mimi tells Belle Shawn doesn't have enough brain left for another accident, "You have to go after him." Belle can't. She has to stay there for Phillip. Yeah, that's it, Phillip will probably show up any minute.
Bo tells Billie the crime lab says the footprints are not clear enough to get a good reading, "It's like whoever took the footprints deliberately smeared the ink." Bummer.
"This is part of the plot to drive me crazy," says Billie, "I can't take it anymore." Bo tells her it won't be long until the three of them are together.
Nicole thinks they should split up. BB objects. Nicole assures him she can take care of herself. They agree to meet in 20 minutes.
"Why do you want to help me, anyway," growls John, "What makes me so special?"
Stami flashes back to telling Kate she must have drugged both Brandon and her and convinced Lucas to walk in on them NAKED IN BED together and orchestrated the whole mess. So much for why she hates Kate. We finally get around to John, "You could have forced that slut you are playing house with to tell the truth. You have obviously chosen Kate Roberts over your own family."
"Let's just call it Karma," says Stami, "What goes around comes around."
"You bastard," Says John.
"What the hell is going on here," asks Brady.
Roman suggests Marlena go back to sleep and she'll feel better about things in the morning. Marlena is thankful he is there. "Together we can fight anything," says Roman. He kisses her, "Sweet dreams." Awwwwww. It's all bet-ter.
"God help us, Marlena," he thinks, "You may be right. We may never get out of here." Humph. The little scum lied to her.
"JENNIFER," yells Jack. He can't catch her, but he calls her cell phone. She answers, but Fake Jen attacks Jack from the back. Jack lies unconscious as Genuine Jen says, "Hello? Hello?"
"Sorry," says Fake Jen, "Wrong number." She hangs up, "Mission accomplished." FF.
Previews
========
Bonnie asks Patrick, "Do you have any idea who did this to you?" Chelsea smirks in the background.
Brady asks John, "You really don't know this guy?" John tells him no.
Nancy shouts at Nicole, "Are you happy now? You have just upset my daughter!" The mummy stares at Nicole.

Another inspired Prevuze. Perfect decoding of what ISA really stands for. And Mimi/Belle's "yada, blah" conversation is practically word for word what probably went on. HAHAHAHA
The FauxJen, GenJen scenes have to rank up there with the most obvious flaunting of The Logic Thing on this episode. If FauxJen got the call at the cabin that "everything was ready for Jack's surprise", why all the time wasted at the house with nothing happening? Why didn't they just take Jack when he first showed up? When they were at the cabin? When they were on their way back from the cabin? What the heck was that all about anyway?? (Except to waste time and give the JJ fans a taste of them being together.)
My favorite comment was the suggestion that Belle would do anything for Phillip - even shutting up. HAHAHAHA
Impossible, I'm afraid.
