Licensed To Be Rude

Roman and Rafe are together in Sami's apartment having one of those friendly father-to-daughter's-grubby-little-boyfriend chats. Rafe tells him Sami isn't there, "So Sami got a call earlier. Was that you?" Roman says it was. "She said it was a wrong number," says Rafe, "Is there a reason she would have to cover up a call form her dad? I think you're hiding something form me."

Sami bumps into Meredith at the pier, "I'm glad I found you."

Meredith isn't so thrilled, "Just what do you want with me?"

They haul Daniel into the cop shop kicking and screaming. The cops pull him away form Bo and take him off.

Kate enters Chloe's room, "So, Sleeping Beauty, you can't wake up. I didn't do this to have Daniel charged with attempted murder. You have to die."

Sami tells Meredith she just wants to talk, "...About Emily."

Daniel and Bo argue. Daniel insists Kate set him up. Bo threatens to put him in a holding cell if he doesn't talk. Daniel agrees, "OK, I'll tell you everything you want to know."

Kate putters around Chloe's room, "So Danny came up with an antidote. We've had enough of that." Kate checks Chloe's IV as Lexie comes in and asks what she's doing. She tells Kate to leave the room while she examines Chloe.

Kate steps outside, "Well, apparently Lexie is also licensed to be rude." Victor shows up and Kate tells him Chloe is in a coma. "Couldn't happen to a nicer girl," says Victor. He invites Kate to the Java Café for a cup of real coffee as opposed to the swill they serve at the hospital. Kate declines. "What," says Victor, "You don't want to leave and miss Chloe's grand finalé? Why do I get the feeling you're not telling me the whole story?"

Meredith don' wanna' talk about Emily. Sami does. I guess we'll have to spend the next hour working that out.

Rafe says, "Sami is in an emotional state right now. I guess I don't have to remind you when she's like that, she makes impulsive decisions."

Roman goes straight for the jugular, "You mean like asking her bodyguard to move in? If you want to know what she's up to, ask her not me."

Bo tells Hope Daniel is sticking to his story. Hope wonders what Bo thinks about the possibility Kate did it.

Kate fills Victor in about Chloe collapsing. Victor relishes the whole story, "Did you get it on tape?"

Kate is grim, 'There is a chance she will never come out of the coma."

"Is there anything we can do to help with that," chuckles Victor, "Kate, is this your handiwork? You hate her."

"I've been careful," says Kate, "Don't forget, I hate you too, you know."

Nathan comes up and we have intros all around. Kate asks about updates on Chloe. Nate says Dr. Jonas has come up with an antidote they are monitoring its progress.

"Antidote," gasps Victor, "She was poisoned? He takes Kate aside, "Did you give her a big shiny red apple with arsenic in the center?" Victor simply can't contain his glee.

Meredith back off. She says she understands Sami is still grieving about her little girl. She apologizes for being rude and says Emily died because of something that never should have happened.

Hope selects a rubber hose from the case of implements of torture and interrogates Daniel, "Don't do anything stupid, Daniel. I'll handle that for both of us."

Daniel admits he's made some big mistakes. He says his affair with Chloe was inevitable. When she ended it he was angry at the situation but not Chloe, "Kate and I were lovers and she resents the fact that Chloe and I are still in love."

Lexie and Nathan work on Chloe. Lexie says the antidote isn't working. Nathan wonders if Daniel poisoned her. "It's not our job to play cop," says Lexie, "Even though we're a lot better at playing cop than we are a playing doctors. It's our job to save her life... if it's not too late.

Kate says they think Chloe was poisoned over a period of time. Victor is about ready to explode with laughter, "Why, Kate, that makes it sound intentional." Kate reminds Victor he is at the top of the list of Chloe's enemies.

Victor thinks Lucas will suspect Kate. "Don't be silly says Kate, "Lucas couldn't put two and two together if the answer were written on the bottom of the page." She tells him Lucas is on a business trip.

Victor finds this all very amusing, "Lucas loves that girl. He won't like it that you killed her."

Kate asks, "You don't think I have that covered?"

Bo is on the phone asking for a report as Abe walks in. Bo hangs up and turns to Abe, "Forensics is jerking me around."

"That's what they do to jerks," says Abe. Bo tells Abe he thinks Daniel didn't commit the crime. Abe is skeptical. He runs through all the evidence against Daniel.

"Geez Abe," asks Bo, "What crawled up your..."

Abe cuts him of and crawls up Bo's..., "I have had calls wondering if the commissioner will coddle this suspect like he did his brother. As the AG put it, your ass is on the line." Fortunately, it's a big line.

Daniel says he thinks Kate taped his voice and spliced it together to fake the threat. He thinks she planted the tainted brownies to incriminate him. Hope wonders how she could know for sure if Chloe loves Daniel, "I certainly can't ask her."

Victor prods Kate and Kate asks him to leave before Lucas gets there. "Lucas will be heartbroken," says Victor.

"He'll be sad temporarily," says Kate, "but in the long run it's for the best."

Meredith says she is still grieving for Emily, "The pain is always there. I watch DOOL every day." She talks about how Emily used to make her furious and then do something to make her burst out laughing, "We were very close. Then everything changed because of him."

Sami asks, "Him?"

Meredith says, "Rafe Hernandez."

Rafe makes a call, "Mrs. Brady, this is Rafe. I was just calling to see if Sami was still there... She didn't? No, I'm sure she's fine. We must've just gotten our signals crossed." he hangs up and mumbles, "Dammit Sami. You said you were going to drop it about Emily."

Abe says people know Jonas is Bo's father's godson, "I want you to take the evidence against Daniel as seriously as your gut. And believe me, your gut is getting pretty serious. You need to lay off the Krispy Kremes."

"I have a solution," says Bo, "Fire me."

Hope tells Daniel, "I want concrete evidence." She then proceeds to ramble on about her theory that Daniel poisoned Chloe, which is based entirely on circumstantial evidence, "What if Chloe knew something someone didn't want her to share?"

Victor continues to jab Kate. She asks him to keep their conversation confidential. He agrees, "In fact, I'd have to say good girl, Kate. Nice work. See you at the funeral. So, how are you going to keep Lucas from suspecting you? And the police?"

"As far as the police go," says Kate, "The perfect alibi in Salem is to commit the crime. Then you're the last person on earth the SPD will suspect."

Meredith says she liked Rafe in the beginning. She breaks down, insists she can't go on and runs off. Sami huffs.

Abe says he isn't going to fire Bo. He just wants Bo to know he's under a lot of scrutiny. A cop brings Bo the latest lab report. Bo looks it over and tells Abe, "Not good news for Jonas."

Daniel says if Chloe could talk she would back up what he is saying. Hope asks under the circumstances why Daniel would have agreed to be in the show. Daniel says Kate bribed him to do one more show. He knows it wasn't a good idea to work with Chloe, "I resigned and planned to leave town because it was painful to be around her."

"If everyone who thought it was painful to be around Chloe left, Salem would be a ghost town," says Hope, "And let me remind you, Chloe told Lexie she didn't want you around."

Bo brings a note into the chamber of horrors and hands it to Hope. Bo leaves and Daniel asks, "What's that?"

Hope whacks him with her rubber hose and slams the door shut on the iron maiden, "LET ME REMIND YOU THAT I'M ASKING THE QUESTIONS HERE, MISTER!" Daniel says he thinks Chloe was afraid to have him treat her.

Hope asks, "You mean she was afraid of you?"

Sami gets back to her place. Laconic Rafe surfs TV channels as she tells him the smock wasn't at Alice's, "But we had a good visit."

Kate refuses to discuss things with Victor and claims she didn't poison Chloe.

A call from Bo interrupts as Bo asks Victor for a name of a lawyer, "We're about to arrest Jonas."

Victor hangs up and turns to Kate, "What a surprise, they're arresting Daniel for this."

Sami evades Rafe's questions, "So, once you got the kids to bed, did you have some time to yourself."

"No," says Rafe, "I had an interesting conversation with your father."

Nate brings a folder to Lexie. Lexie reads the information in the folder and looks grim, "Things are looking worse. She may never come out of this. We should prepare to move her to the Jan Spears ward."

Daniel thinks Chloe was afraid because the pain medication might have caused her to say how she felt about him. Daniel also says he thinks Kate may have confided in Victor.

Victor barks at his lawyer and tells him to get down there and bail Daniel out. He hangs up and turns to Kate, "How do you get out of this mess without pinning it on Daniel? I will not let you do this."

"Go ahead and tell," says Kate, "Bo won't believe you."

"No," says Victor, "but Lucas will."

That got Sami's attention. Sh wonders why Roman was there. Rafe says he was just checking on her, "So, Sami, why are you lying to me?"

Hope thinks Daniel's theory makes Kate out to be a really obsessed woman, "How did She know what poison to use? Where did she get it?"

Daniel says he doesn't know, but he wants Hope to keep Kate away from Chloe.

Bo tells Abe, "The report says only Daniel's prints are on that bottle, the prescription was in his handwriting and a man with his description picked it up, "With all that evidence against Daniel, I've got to believe he's innocent."

Kate tells Victor she won't have threats. Victor says he won't let Kate do this to his godson. Kate reminds him there is an overwhelming amount of evidence. Lucas runs up and asks the same question he's always asking, "What's going on?"

Victor smirks, "Are you going to tell him, Kate, or should I?"
