Salem: A Memory Behind Each Tombstone

Carly comes into the stateroom and announces the patient is asleep and she has to go back and contact Bo. Omar is reluctant to play nursemaid, but Carly's oh, so alluring personality convinces him. She tells him Bo is now the commissioner of police. Omar thinks they don't need no stinkin' law enforcement officials involved. Carly thinks Justin can help, too.

Justin helps Hope pack. He carts a few bags downstairs and asks, "So you're taking your anvils with you?" Bo comes in and catches them in the act.

Hope gasps, "I thought you were at work."

"Obviously," sneers Bo, "Justin. Always good to see you." At the moment, Justin can't say the same.

Sami comes into the Java Café mumbling, "It's a good thing you kept a couple bucks for yourself." Sami the financial whiz must've been the president of AIG before she became unemployed. She flashes back to the point where she backed a truck full of money up to the Nicole-hole and pressed the "DUMP" button, "I had to do it, but it will kill EJ – not that he doesn't deserve it."

Sami's big mouth does it again as EJ drops in from the sky and overhears, "Doesn't deserve what?" I thought you'd be with Nicole."

"She's busy tonight. Spending my money."

Stefano is on the phone ordering Nicole to get off the plane and come to the hospital with Sydney. "Sorry, Stefano," smirks Nicole, "I am finally out of your jurisdiction."

Brady and Arianna bask. He wonders if she's still angry about him sneaking up on her, "If this is how you deal with anger I can't wait to see you happy. I like keeping this a secret. It has adventure to it. Something really bothers you about that doesn't it?" Arianna doesn't want to think about that right now. The thinking stops.

Sami pulls everything out of her purse, turns it upside down and shakes it. Moths fly out. EJ watches the comedy, "Are you strapped for cash?" EJ offers to treat her. Sami don' need no stinkin' treat. She digs deeper and finds a buck. Hey, just $49,999 more and she's back where she started. EJ wants to talk about Johnny.

Stefano tells Nicole she is never out of his jurisdiction. An attendant announces over the intercom, "Please secure all electronics. We are about to depart on our flight to Rio de Janeiro." Stefano hears it and chuckles. He reels off a number of places she should visit while she is there. Nicole tells him it's not her final destination.

Stefano hangs up and makes another call, "Too bad you will never see Rio, Nicole."

Carly puts on her suspicious cat-burglar costume. Omar offers to take her anywhere in the world. Carly declines. Why take the world when you can have Salem?

Sarcastic Bo says he appreciates the fact that Justin isn't taking sides. Hope tells him this is between the two of them. Justin decides this would be a good time to haul a few things to the car. "Don't hurt your back," yells Bo. Hope insists Justin is just helping with her luggage. Bo asks if she's staying with Jugs and Doolie.

Unfortunately there is a delay with Nicole's plane. The intercom crackles with a message that they have to go back to the gate to drop off a passenger. Nicole tells Sydney they just shouldn't care about a little delay because they are headed for Rio. Stefano calls, "Nicole, when your plane reaches the gate, there will be someone there to help you." Goodbye Rio.

EJ tells Sami this afternoon was upsetting to him. He warns her to think carefully before aligning herself with Nicole. He insists Johnny is not going to watch his parents tear themselves apart.

Sami screams, "You drive me insane!"

"Believe me," says EJ, "It's a short drive."

Sami blows her stack, "You did not lose Sydney. You threw her away!"

Brady and Arianna smooch. They have now switched sides in the bed. Kinky. Arianna just wants the rest of the world to go away, "I can't believe it. You are never judgmental or angry like I am."

"Take me to a Cubs game and I'll show you a different side of me," says Brady, "I think we have something going on that's really great and pretty soon there won't be any secrets between us." Arianna zones. Brady says, "I want to know what's going on in your mind."

"How much do you know about that right now," asks Arianna.

"Nothing," says Brady.

"Well," says Arianna, "That's what's usually going on in my mind. They don't call me Ari-head for nothing, you know." Smooches ensue.

Sami thinks EJ is hurting himself as well as others, "How can you be so stupid?"

"I'm not the one who flushed $50,000 down the old poop-chute."

"And I'm not the one who couldn't tell my wife wasn't pregnant," says Sami, "Why are you so miserable? Why is Nicole hurting? Why is Sydney wondering where her daddy is? This is a fiasco. Nicole loved you. Now she's gone."

Nicole arrives in Stefano's room with a warm greeting, "Why aren't you dead? How did you get them to turn the flight around."

"It took a considerable bite out of my frequent flyer miles," quips Stefano. He scolds her for letting EJ kick her out of the house.

Nicole says if the truth comes out Sami would get her baby back in a heartbeat, "I did this for EJ, so he could keep his child."

Stefano tells her he only brought her back for Sydney, "You are insignificant. All that matters is the baby."

Carly strolls at the pier and flashes back to the time when she met Bo, back when he looked like Braveheart with a beard, "I should call Bo but That's too direct. Justin, it's up to you."

Bo and Hope argue. Your zapper will come in very handy at this juncture. You have heard it all before.

EJ wonders what she meant when she said Nicole is gone. He wants clarification. Sami tells him it's too late. "What are you talking about," asks EJ.

"You," says Sami, "and what you drive others to do. Nicole wanted you to be there when she had her miscarriage but was afraid you would kick her out. And that's exactly what you did. She has left the country to keep her baby. She ran. Broke and scared, but holding on to your daughter and my money."

Nicole tells Stefano she got on the plane because Chad is suing and she knows she will lose. Stefano reminds her Chad isn't the father. Nicole reminds him that can't come out, "If EJ finds out he will kill me or Sami will kill me. Maybe they will take turns killing me."

Stefano erupts, "I told you that you don't matter. Period!"

Bo and Hope. The punching bag and the shrew. The pin cushion and the nag. Bo thinks she has him cornered, "We learned in police academy, that's something you should never do in a volatile situation."

"Was that Police Academy V or Police Academy VI," asks Hope. Bo asks where she is going. She drops the Kiriakis mansion bomb on him. "Please tell me you're joking," begs Bo.

Carly flashes back to her time with Victor, "It is over." She knocks on the Kiriakis mansion door. Henderson answers but finds no one there. He closes the door and Carly comes back. Carly says, "Bo, here I come."

Arianna gets a call. Brady asks her not to take it, but Arianna says she has to. "And they say guys aren't romantic," says Brady, "Let me know when you are done yammering." Arianna flashes back to her arrest. Brady yanks the phone form her, suggests turning it off and turning her on.

EJ says Nicole couldn't have left because she had no money. Then he puts two and two together. He gets five, but that's close enough for a guy with EJ's mental prowess, "So that's where all your money went isn't it?"

"NO!"

"Yes... You helped her. She'll be back and five minutes after that she'll have handcuffs on."

Sami erupts, "You are the same pig headed man you have always been, and you will never see Nicole or Sydney again.

If there were a "Mensa" for morons, Sami Brady would be a charter member. Dues: $50,000.

Nicole rants and suggests they both tell EJ everything they know. Lexie comes in and wants to know what all the commotion is about. "Your father," says Nicole, "has finally pushed me too far."

Brady asks, "What's bothering you?"

Arianna asks, "Besides you?" She decides to stick to non-verbal communication and moves in for another heapin' helpin' of Brady.

Carly flashes back to being buried alive, "Salem. A memory behind each tombstone."

Bo and Hope. Sic Transit Gloria Crap.

EJ and Sami. See the previous comment on Bo and Hope. Sami tells him if it weren't for Chad trying to get custody, Nicole would have stayed in town and raised Sydney, "You still love her. You could have been happy, EJ, if you had a different last name."

"I tried 'Wells' and that didn't work," says EJ. Sami thanks him for the coffee and leaves.

Lexie drags Nicole out and reminds her Stefano is still in critical condition, "Go home. Get some rest." Lexie walks off.

Nicole drones, "I'm not gonna rest and neither are you, Stefano."

Bo and Hope. Ho and Dope. Bo suggests selling the house and starting over. Hope says she loves the house. She asks Bo for a little time. If I were Bo I'd give her about 50 years. Bo watches her walk out, "Watch your back over there."

Hope turns, "You're worried about my safety? I'm worried about yours."

Nicole returns to Stefano's room. She wants to finish their little chat. Stefano admires her tenacity, "You are certainly brave. You are just like like the men at the Alamo. Dead but brave."

Nicole wonders what EJ will do when he finds out Stefano knew all along, "If he finds out Sydney is his child, you can kiss both of them goodbye and Johnny too. Maybe I deserve what's coming to me but you'd better protect me or I swear you will die a miserable lonely old man."

Brady says one day Arianna will realize she can trust him.

Sami sits in her apartment, "Wherever you are my friend I Hope you are doing well. You have 50,000 reasons to be very happy. Mark this day, Sami, you actually miss Nicole."

Stefano tells Nicole people who threaten him regret it. Nicole says they don't have the ammo she does.

Hope and Justin arrive at the Kiriakis mansion. Ciara is off bull riding somewhere. Hope tells Justin she thinks she is making a terrible mistake.

We see a flashlight outside Bo's residence. The intruder has a choice... doorbell or smash the window. Well, a doorbell is so passe. We watch as a gloved hand pokes through the window and glass goes flying everywhere. Bo sneaks down the stairs and watches. The mysterious figure comes inside.

TACKLE!

Bo growls, "You just made a big mistake!"

Carly looks at him, "Sorry to drop in on you like this."
