Cui Bono?

It's Anna-Nicole Round II. Anna is with Nicole in the prison visiting area. She asks why Nicole wanted her to come there, "Out with it."

"It's something Sami once said to me," says Nicole, "You bitch, you stole my daughter."

"You don't know what you're talking about," says Anna.

"I'm right on the money," sneers Nicole, "That was your voice. You stole Sydney. Say it!"

Anna caves in, "OK, you're right. I took Sydney."

EJ is in Sami's apartment. Sami calls and tells him she can't come home because they're having such a great time in the park. "I understand," says EJ, "It might even be more fun if you had Johnny and Allie with you." EJ hangs up and tells Sydney he and Sami are getting along famously, "This is much better than the original plan. With me here, I'll be able to make her fall in love with me and I'll break her heart and get to watch the whole thing happen."

Stefano tells Kate what's going on at Sami's and in the park, per information from his spies. They talk about dealing with Sami, and how much Stefano wants to see Sydney. Kate says, "I'm thinking that there is a way for you to see Sydney. I'll contact Australia Tours and book us a flight."

The judge starts to sentence Carly but Melanie busts in. The judge gets... uh... judgey, "This is a closed hearing, young lady. Who are you?"

"I'm Melanie Kiriakis," says Melanie, "The person Dr. Manning shot. I just want to say something." Groans are heard throughout the room.

Chad serves Gabi coffee, "There you go... Light, with five sugars. That's' really not coffee any more, you know."

"It's closer to coffee than the dishwater they serve at the pub," says Gabi.

Mia walks in, her eyes meet Chad's and we have a flashback to their last kiss. Chad's brain goes off to Never-Never Land and Gabi asks if something's wrong.

Nicole rants about Anna stealing her baby. Anna mocks, "Face it honey, she was never your baby. The only baby stealer in this room is you." Anna gets up to leave, but Nicole threatens to call Roman if Anna goes.

The judge invites Melanie in, "What is it you wish to say?"

"You're sentencing her for what she did to me," whines Melanie, "Don't I get to talk?" Justin objects, but Carly asks to let Melanie talk.

Mia twirls her necklace and she and Chad exchange stares. Will brings coffee and says he likes seeing her wearing the oh-so-special necklace and is glad they are "exclusive." When you look clueless up in the dictionary, all you find is a picture of Will...

Gabi wonders what's wrong with Chad, and then she turns around and sees Mia, "I guess this happened when Mia walked in."

Chad stares at Mia and then back at poor Gabi. He proceeds to give her the fastest dump-job in history, "I don't think it's fair to you for us to go out when I'm... you know."

"Not over Mia."

"Yeah," sighs Chad, "Right."

Anna asks if Roman would listen to Nicole. Nicole says, "I think he'll be all ears."

"He certainly won't be all brains," says Anna, "But if I know Roman, he'll want proof of what you are saying."

Nicole says she will tell him she heard Anna's voice as she walked away at the kidnapping.

Anna gets sarcastic, "Oooooo, that's damming. Roman and I share a child, while you put his daughter through hell. Which one do you think he'll believe?"

Bo and Justin advise Carly back off and not agree to let Melanie speak. Carly refuses. The judge asks Melanie to proceed, "But I have to remind you this will be for the public record."

"That's exactly how I want it," says Melanie, "I do everything in public. I'm sure you've seen my Internet porn video."

Kate is on the phone with Will. She says she has gone shopping and just couldn't resist spending a ton of money on him and his sister, and asks to deliver the gifts. Kate says she thinks Will is the one person who could make Sami agree to accept them, "Really the gifts were just an excuse. I just want to see you guys. Are you home?"

"No," says Will, "I'll head there now." Kate hangs up and tells Stefano what's up.

Will tells Mia he has to run interference between his mother and grandmother. Mia says she'll wait there. Will does a smooch-and-go.

Anna smiles her snotty smile, "Cui bono? It means who benefits. Roman always asks himself that when he tries to solve a crime. So, the question is, how could I benefit."

"How about five million bucks," asks Nicole.

"I don't need money," says Anna, "Tony left me well provided for."

"Then there is Tony's death," says Nicole, "Sudden. Unfair. Must've left you wanting revenge. Some way, somehow, stealing my baby gave you your revenge."

Back in the hearing room, the setup begins. Melanie talks about her history with Carly, "It turns out, I'm her secret love child. Not once has she ever told me the truth, and I don't think she ever will."

Bigmouth Bo jumps in, "That's not how it is and you know it!"

Mia walks up to Chad. He drops the news about Gabi on her, "I told Gabi I thought she and I should stop dating. It's bogus to see her when all I think about is kissing you. Do you still think about us? Even when you're with Will?"

"Yes," says Mia, "But it's not that serious between me and Will." Chad asks her out. Mia agrees, but says no one can know.

Will arrives home. EJ tells him Sami is at the park, Johnny and Allie have run off to join the circus and he's babysitting. Immediately, however, EJ gets a call from Harold who tells him there is an emergency meeting. Stef'n-Ho watch as Harold says Mr. Chibanelli is pulling his money from the new project. EJ hangs up and rushes off. Stefano thanks Harold for his loyalty. Stef'n-Ho head for Sami's.

Anna asks, "Tony died struggling with Phillip. How would that motivate me to kidnap Sydney?"

"Tony was doing business that night," says Nicole, "If he didn't have to prove himself to his own father he'd still be alive. Anna brings up the fact that Nicole stood and watched Tony die and didn't help him.

"OMG," says gasps Nicole, "You took Sydney to get back at me!"

Bo says Melanie knows why Carly lied. The judge and the DA suggest Bo sit down and shut up. Melanie continues with more history. She relates how Carly told her about being her mother, "I was so freaked out and didn't want to think about it until today. Some people had me go through it and remember what happened. She didn't mean to shoot me. It was an accident." Carly sobs.

Melanie says when she gave her first statement she was hurting and scared and wanted to get back at Carly for giving her up. The judge asks what really happened. Melanie talks about Vivian being at the wedding and hauling her up to the roof, "Carly didn't want to hurt me. She can't handle a cup of coffee around me much less a gun. She didn't try to hurt me. She's not guilty."

Chad wants to know why they can't tell Will. Mia says he and his family are going through too much right now, "I'll wait until his family chills out and then I'll dump him like yesterday's garbage."

"The sun will be a burned out cinder before that family chills out," says Chad, "If you don't really want to..."

"I want to," says Mia. She kisses him, "I really want to."

Kate arrives at Sami's place. She dumps loot on him, "This is for you... it's an iPhone, an mp3 player, it has all the bells and whistles."

"An iPhone," repeats Will, "iPhones are so last-year. Nexus is the thing now. By the way, Mom is at the park."

Stefano waddles in, "I'm glad to hear that."

Will looks at Kate, "You didn't tell me he was coming."

"I forgot."

"She asked me not to come, but I talked her into it," says Stefano.

"Mom and EJ don't want you around," says Will.

Silver-tongued Stefano asks Will to open his heart and let him see Sydney, "But if you feel I should go, well... I will."

Will shifts his eyes to Kate, "The mp3 was a bribe wasn't it?" The guy's as sharp as a polished marble. Stefano sits with Sydney and babbles Italian. Will tells him he can stick around.

Anna erupts, "Yes. I hate you, Nicole, and the whole DiMera family and anyone who was involved with Tony's death, but I have moved on. I have known true love and didn't have to steal a baby to make a man love me."

Nicole gives it right back, "And that man is dead. So let's spin it your way. Let's say you didn't steal Sydney. But all it took was a phone call to get you here. Why would that work unless you are guilty as hell?"

Kate and Will are at the Java Café. Kate thanks him for doing this for Stefano. "When mom finds out she will ground me," says Will.

Kate reassures him, "She won't find out. Stefano is having her watched. If she leaves the park you can rush home and get there before her. Will looks around the room. "What is it," asks Kate.

"I thought my friend would still be here." Will's "friend" may not be there, but someone else is. EJ sticks his head in the door and sees them.

Anna says she's said everything she's going to tell Nicole. Nicole says she doesn't believe Anna was with Carrie the last few months, "I have a business deal with the guard. She lets me use her cell phone whenever I want to, so let's just call Carrie now and see if she will verify that."

Mia and Chad wander at the dock. "Too bad the theater was sold out," says Mia, "What do you want to do?"

Dumb question. Chad moves in. In the process, somehow, Mia's precious necklace has drops off. Chad's an animal.

Mia cooperates for a while, but then cuts things short, "Making out in public isn't the smartest thing. Someone might see us."

Chad gets creative, "We could find someplace private. Did I tell you I've had the back seat of my car remodeled? " T-man texts Chad asking to hang out. Mia tells Chad to text T-man back and say he's busy. Mia says she has to go pick up her paycheck and suggests Chad meet her back at the Java Café. She leaves and Gabi comes up.

The judge had the bailiff escort everyone out except Justin and the DA. The judge says, "It appears Dr. Manning has plead guilty to something she didn't do."

Outside, Bo tells Carly this is pretty great. Carly agrees.

Gabi says she's trying to contact Kinzie and asks Chad for her info. He gives it to her and leaves. Gabi sits on the bench and finds the necklace, "Hey, Chad, you forgot this." Chad is long gone.

Stefano stoops at Sydney's crib and rambles. EJ comes back and blows a gasket. He tells Stefano to get out.

"Well," says Stefano, "So be it."

Anna says, "Go ahead, call Austin. He'll say I was there or called in while traveling."

"If you were traveling," says Nicole, "You left a trail. I want to know where you stayed. I want names. After I call Roman I'll call Rafe Hernandez. He'll turn over every rock until he finds the one you crawled out from under."

The judge rules the shooting was accidental. He puts Carly on double secret probation and tells her she can go. Carly hugs Bo.

Gabi calls Chad as she holds the locket. Will comes up and sees it, "Where did you get that."

"Chad had it."

The judge asks Justin and DA Woods into his office. Bo tells Carly they have to celebrate. He gets a call and says he has to go. Carly tells him she'll be waiting for him.

After Bo leaves, Carly thanks Melanie. She reaches out, "I do worry..."

Melanie reels backwards, "Don't touch me! I want to make sure you're unarmed first."

EJ rambles about seeing Will and Kate in the Java Café,s "It took me two seconds to figure out what was going on. I knew immediately they were having coffee. You have no rights with Sydney. None. None."

Back to Anna-Nicole. Anna tells Nicole she should just move on. "Oh," mocks Nicole, "I'll just go back to my charming room and work on that. I Hope they haven't eliminated the turn-down service."

Nicole backpedals, "I'm not admitting anything but... what do you want?"

Nicole beams, "That's more like it."
