Hope asks Celeste why she snatched the box away from her. Celeste says she
wasn't honest when she told Hope she didn't know about her past at Maison
Blanche. Celeste says she was with Hope the entire four years watching her
recuperate from her injuries and have reconstructive surgery, and she just
didn't want to remind her of the painful memories. Hope says if that's the
case, there's no harm in looking in the box. The box contains an intricate
wooden case with some expensive toiletry items, including a silver mirror and
lipstick case. Hope puts on some lipstick and Celeste asks her if she's
having a memory. Hope says she isn't, but she wonders where she got these
things. Celeste says Gina was very important to Stefano and he gave her
everything she wanted. Hope pretends she believes Celeste that nothing else
happened while she was at Maison Blanche. Celeste tells her it's best not to
try to remember, and Hope pretends to agree. As soon as Celeste leaves, Hope
says she will never give up, but she will let Stefano and Celeste believe she
did.
Stefano stares at the picture of Hope with the Russian writing underneath. He
wonders if someone has been snooping, but decides that if Hope or Bo had found
the picture, they would have taken it with them. Bart comes in and swears
that he set the alarm every time he left, so no one could have come in.
Stefano dismisses him and burns the picture, but he smiles as he remembers how
fearless Gina was and how profitable their association was. He has a memory
of her putting on lipstick with the same kit that Celeste gave her. Celeste
comes in and tells Stefano that she has convinced Hope to give up on finding
out about her past. Stefano says she's done well, but if he needs her
services in the future, he hopes she knows better than to refuse. Celeste
storms out without a word.
Bo walks in on Billie pretending to drink a martini. He is alarmed and asks
her what's going on. Billie puts on an Oscar-winning performance, pretending
she is so worried about the amniocentesis and the possibility of their baby
being harmed by her drug habit that she is driven to drink, since Bo is never
around for her. Bo says he'll always be there, and Billie tells him to shut
up, because she's heard it all before and obviously it isn't true. She
pretends to flip out and hurl her drink on the floor and break down sobbing.
Bo holds her in her arms and can't see her smile of triumph that her plan is
working. Bo says he will be there for her more often and will go to the amnio
with her tomorrow. Billie says she'll be fine with his support and tells him
to leave her alone for a while. Bo leaves and Billie jumps for joy, mentally
thanking Hope for giving her an idea of how to hold on to Bo. Bo heads over to
Mrs. Horton's house to talk to Hope. He tells her that Billie kicked him out
and Hope asks exasperatedly, "What's she up to now?" Bo looks shocked at
Hope's cynicism.
John sees Roman and Marlena embracing and assumes they've decided to get back
together. Before he can turn around and leave, Roman sees him and calls him
out onto the terrace. They talk about Belle's condition and then Roman tells
John to stay, because they have something to tell him. John says he thinks he
knows what it is and he doesn't want to hear it. A nurse comes and tells
Marlena that Belle is awake and asking for her and Marlena rushes off. John
asks Roman if he forced the issue with Marlena and Roman says yes, but it
isn't what John thinks. Roman tells John that he knows Marlena and John
belong together and he has decided to step aside. John is shocked and
overwhelmed at Roman's selflessness and nobility. They wish each other well
and John goes to see Marlena and Belle, while Roman closes his eyes in pain.
While John and Marlena feed Belle her ice cream and rejoice in being together,
Roman heads over to a blues bar to drown his sorrows. He tells the bartender
that the old saying about holding on to a person by letting them go is a lie.
Just as he's feeling at his worst, he hears a woman say, "You look like you
need a friend." He turns and sees Billie standing beside him.
Mike asks Carrie if she's sure it was a good idea for them to agree to go to
dinner with board members Lewis and Winston. Carrie says of course it is -
they have to strike while the iron is hot. She congratulates Mike on his
moving speech that totally turned them around. Mike says he's not letting
anyone intimidate him from trying to follow in Tom Horton's footsteps. Carrie
says she's glad, because that way they can spend more time together. She
leaves to see Austin and Craig Westley comes to congratulate Mike on his
successful suck-up speech. Mike tries to ignore him, but Craig asks how the
board members would react if they knew Mike was fooling with a married woman.
Mike gets mad and says he and Carrie are just friends, and have been since
childhood, that she is happily married to Austin and their only reason for
spending time together is that she is running his PR campaign. Craig says he
is so confident of winning the Chief of Staff position that he has moved his
wife to Salem.
Sami sees Austin working out at the punching bag and gloats that he is
probably venting his frustration over Carrie's time with Mike. She brings up
the subject to him, but Austin says he trusts Carrie completely. Sami says
Carrie will be especially busy with Mike now that the Intruder article has
come out. She shows the article to Austin and then tells him that Kate has
approved her New Faces campaign. Austin wishes her luck, although he knows
she got Kate's approval by using Vivian. He says that if her campaign
succeeds, maybe she'll leave him and Carrie alone. Sami swears she has not
interfered with them lately. She tells him that her interest is in Titan,
since her son is one of Kate's heirs. She tells Austin how much Will misses
him, and Austin tells her she should work out her differences with Lucas for
Will's sake. Sami asks Austin if he is thinking of taking up boxing again.
Austin says no; as much as he enjoys working out, Carrie hates boxing and he
won't do it. He leaves to get a drink of water and Carrie arrives. She asks
Sami where Austin is, and Sami teases Carrie about her time spent with Mike.
Carrie assures Sami that she is devoted to Mike's campaign. Austin shows up
and embraces Carrie and says he is ready to shower and spend the entire
evening with her. Carrie tells Sami to give them some privacy and then tells
Austin (while Sami eavesdrops) that she had to do damage control after the
Intruder article was printed, and she and Mike are having dinner with two
board members tonight. Austin is disappointed, but Carrie assures him she'll
be home early and they can spend the whole night together. Sami listens with
glee and then makes a phone call and tells someone it's time to turn up the
heat.

COURTESY SOAP OPERA CENTRAL
At the hospital, John and Marlena wait to bring Belle home. Marlena sees
Carrie with Mike and comments to John that they are spending a lot of time
together. John asks if that bothers her, and Marlena says she hopes it
doesn't bother Austin. John says Austin is secure and doesn't mind having a
wife who has a career. Marlena remembers times when Roman was called Mr.
Evans and how well he always handled it. John goes to sign Belle's release
papers and Carrie and Mike, dressed for dinner, come up to Marlena to ask
about Belle. Marlena tells them that she and John are going to be together.
Carrie is happy for her and says true love always wins out in the end. She
asks Marlena if she's as happy as she should be and Marlena says yes, she's
just stressed out about Belle being in the hospital. Carrie and Mike leave
for their dinner and John and Marlena take Belle home. They announce to
Chelsea and the children that they are going to be a family again. Everyone
congratulates them, and Chelsea and Brady take Belle up for her bath. John
asks Marlena if she is having any second thought about being together.
Marlena says no, and John says he won't move in tonight; he wants to make sure
everything is perfect. He leaves and says mysteriously that he will call her
later.
At Mrs. Horton's, Bo tells Hope that Billie is going through a very rough time
with her worry about the drug use affecting the fetus, and that he caught her
about to take a drink. Hope is in disbelief that Billie could be so reckless
and tells Bo that his place is with Billie to make sure she does nothing to
harm the baby. Bo says that he will be there for Billie, but he also wants to
help Hope with her quest to find out more about Maison Blanche and her missing
four years. Hope says she can take care of herself, but Bo says he won't let
her endanger her life by going up against Stefano alone. Bo sees the box on
the table and asks what it contains. Hope says it contains clues to her past.
At the piano bar, Billie orders a mineral water and Roman puts it on his tab.
He tells Billie that he has just let Marlena go. Billie says she would never
be able to give up the man she loved, and she thinks Roman is very noble to do
so. Roman says he is not noble, just realistic. Billie tells him how worried
she is that Bo's quest to help Hope find out about her past will get him
killed, and she will have to raise their baby without a father. Roman says he
heard about how many times Billie saved Bo's life during the undercover
operation and that she is a remarkable, brave woman. He reminds her that he
has firsthand knowledge from their time in Paris. They exchange smoldering
looks as they remember how they helped each other through the hard times in
Paris, and Billie says that things are really not much different now - neither
of them has the one they love.
Sami runs into Eric in Salem Place and comments on how handsome he looks.
Eric says he is taking Nicole out to dinner. Sami throws a fit and says it's
bad policy to mix business with pleasure. Eric can't believe his ears, and
points out that Sami is dating Franco, and her personal life is too screwed up
for her to be giving him advice. Sami tells Eric he wouldn't even have a job
if it weren't for her. Eric says he was waiting for her to pull a power play
like that and that she can keep her job. Sami realizes she was wrong and runs
after Eric and begs him not to quit. She promises she won't ever try that
again. Eric says he wants his twin back, and that Sami needs to stop
interfering in people's lives. She promises she won't, and they hug. Eric
heads over to meet Nicole. Sami sees Austin in Salem Place and contrives to
bump into him. She asks him if he and Carrie will have a drink with her
(knowing full well that Carrie is having dinner with Mike) so she can discuss
a problem she's having with Lucas and Will. Austin says Carrie can't come, so
Sami says she will talk to him alone, if it's all right. Austin asks where,
and Sami says Chez Vous is just around the corner, knowing that's where Carrie
and Mike are having dinner.
Someone knocks on Nicole's door and she opens it to find her angry landlord
telling her the rent is late - again. She says she'll have it tomorrow, but
he tells her if she can't come up with it now, she can move out. She shows
him her modeling contract with Titan, and he reluctantly agrees to wait
another day. Nicole says to herself she can't wait until she doesn't have to
deal with losers like him. She puts on her new dress and meets Eric at Salem
Place. He tells her she looks great and that he is taking her to Chez Vous,
his father's favorite restaurant. She looks a little intimidated, but is
excited. They head over there and run into Austin and Sami, who are sitting
in the bar. Nicole thanks Sami again for giving her such a great opportunity,
but notices Sami is a little cold. She and Eric sit down to dinner and Eric
tells her Sami is just protective. He tells her a little of Sami's history
with Austin. Nicole says they should forget all that and drink to their new
careers.
At Chez Vous, Mike and Carrie are sitting down to dinner with the board
members, Lewis and Winston, when a drunk man comes up to Mike and loudly
accuses him of killing his wife. Mike remembers the man, Mr. Collins, as
someone whose wife recently died as a patient at University Hospital. He
calms the man down and refuses to let the restaurant call the police. He
tells Mr. Collins that he remembers his wife well, and that he knows the grief
must be overwhelming, but there was nothing anyone could do to save her. He
tells Mr. Collins to give him a call in the morning and he will recommend a
grief counselor. The man calms down and starts crying and apologizing for the
scene he made. Mike tells him it's all right, but he should make sure to call
Mike in the morning. Mike gets the restaurant to call him a cab, and the man
leaves. Carrie, Winston, and Lewis are all impressed with how smoothly and
compassionately Mike handled the crisis. Lewis suggests they dance, and
Carrie and Mike start dancing close. Just then, Sami and Austin walk in.
Austin keeps noticing Carrie and Mike dancing, and Sami pretends she doesn't
see them. She tells Austin that Lucas is turning into a drunk and she is
worried that it might be affecting Will. Austin doesn't know whether to
believe her, but says he will check it out. Meanwhile, Carrie and Mike start
reminiscing about their dance on the hilltop in LA while Austin watches
jealously. The dinner ends on a positive note, with Lewis and Winston
promising they will do this again when the board has narrowed down its
choices. Carrie congratulates Mike on how well he handled the dinner, and he
tells her he is glad she was there. Austin comes up to them and asks how
things went. Carrie says it was great, and Austin tells her it's time to go
home. She says good night to Mike and they leave. Mike is obviously
unsettled.

WEDNESDAY APRIL 29TH
COURTESY SOAP OPERA CENTRAL
John calls Marlena and tells her that he wishes they had known each other when
they were younger, so he's recreating a date as if they were in high school.
He tells her to meet him and she dresses in a ponytail and fifties clothing,
while John dresses in a leather jacket, jeans, and T-shirt and drives a red
sports car. They go to a movie theater John has rented out and filled with
sixties memorabilia, including pictures of Martin Luther King, the Kennedys,
and lots of pink decorations. Marlena remembers when JFK, Martin Luther King,
and Robert Kennedy were shot and John says she must have been a sensitive
young girl. She says she imagines he was popular and athletic, a leader.
They sit down to watch the movie John set up - Grease - and start making out
in the back seats.
Hope shows Bo what's in the box that Celeste sent - the comb, mirrored
compact, and lipstick. She asks him why Stefano would have given her a mirror
if her face was so horribly scarred for so long, and if he waited until her
face was reconstructed and he knew she was Hope, then why does the mirror have
the initial "G" on it? Bo urges her to give up her search because he doesn't
want to lose her, but Hope says there is no way, now that she is close to the
truth. Bo begs her to be careful, but says that he can't be there for her all
the time because of Billie. He leaves and Hope looks ready to cry.
Billie and Roman continue to reminisce about their dangerous ISA assignment in
Paris and how they helped each other through the rough times. Billie says she
wishes Bo had such high regard for her and that he would remember the promises
he made in Rome. She starts to cry because she says her pregnancy should be a
magical time in her life, and instead it's just painful. Roman says she
doesn't deserve to go through this and he hopes Bo will come to his senses
soon. As they leave the piano bar, Roman promises Billie he'll always be
there for her. She tells him he's a wonderful man and they embrace. Just
then, Bo walks up and looks disturbed.
Eric asks Nicole to fill him in on her life up to this point. She keeps
avoiding his questions, but when the waiter asks her if she wants dessert, she
displays an astonishing knowledge of port wines. Eric is impressed and
guesses she was a debutante. Nicole refuses to answer and instead asks him to
dance. As they dance, Eric asks if she would consider dating him now that
they're working together. Nicole says she will go out with him again. The
dance ends and Eric offers to take her home. Nicole, ashamed of her dumpy
apartment, says she will walk. Eric is worried, but lets her go alone. He
tries to give her a kiss, but she puts him off. Nicole returns home and says
that Sami and Eric are her ticket out of this dump. Meanwhile, walking in
Salem Place, Eric notices a teenage girl (enter LeAnn Rimes!) stuffing muffins
from a bakery into her bag. The proprietor yells out and the girl tries to
escape, but Eric stops her and says he saw her stealing the muffins. She
looks up and asks, "So? What are you going to do - call the cops?"
Kate sees Franco in Salem Place and chews him out for letting Sami slip out of
his control. Franco tries to make excuses, but Kate says she's interested
only in results - that's what she's paying him for, and he'd better control
Sami or he'll be out of Salem so fast his head will spin. Franco promises he
will take care of Sami.
Sami leaves a message on Franco's machine, telling him she misses him and has
great news to share. Lucas overhears her and taunts her that her new
boyfriend has probably dumped her. Sami says Franco is just busy. She
accuses Lucas of drinking too much, and he says it's no wonder he drinks when
he has to deal with someone like her blackmailing his mother. Sami puts Will
to bed. When she comes back out, Lucas tells her he heard all about her power
play with Vivian and that he has no choice but to make good on his threat and
sue Sami for full custody of Will. Sami says he will never win, because
Austin won't support him and knows what a good mother she is. Lucas says he
doubts Austin would support her if he knew she was a blackmailer. Sami tells
Lucas to quit being such a drunk. He leaves the room to say good night to
Will. The doorbell rings, and Sami is delighted to see Franco. He soon
dashes her happiness by telling her that her plot with Vivian was directly in
opposition to the plan of action he laid out for her, and that if he can't
count on her to trust him, he wants no relationship with her. Sami says the
important thing is that her plan worked and the campaign was approved. Franco
says congratulations, but he wants no part of her manipulations. He storms
out, leaving Sami confused and upset. He sees Kate outside the door and tells
her Sami is all taken care of and will soon be begging for him to take her
back. Inside the house, Lucas, who overheard Franco dumping Sami, teases her
about it, but Sami is in no mood and says if she were a man, she'd deck Lucas.

COURTESY SOAP OPERA CENTRAL
Eric holds the arm of the girl he stopped from stealing the muffins. She asks
him not to call the cops and he says he won't. He pays for her muffins and
the baker agrees not to prosecute - this time. The girl tries to take off,
but Eric convinces her to sit down and eat her muffin and he'll buy her some
milk. She reluctantly agrees and tells him her name is Madison. She stares
into Eric's filled wallet when he pays for the milk. Eric tries to convince
her to go to a shelter or to go home, but she tells him no way. Obviously,
she doesn't trust him or anyone. Finally, he convinces her to spend the night
at the pub's spare room so she can get a shower and have a good night's sleep.
While she is showering, Eric calls Nicole. After he gets off the phone, Eric
picks up Madison's bag to put it in the bedroom and sees something inside that
concerns him.
Nicole stares at the letter she ripped up and asks herself why this is
happening to her when everything is starting to go right in her life. She is
so freaked out that when someone knocks on the door, she turns out all the
lights and pretends she's not home. She hears a girl's voice and answers the
door. It's her neighbor, Inez, who asks her why she's hiding out. Nicole
says she thought it was her landlord and she didn't want to fight with him
about the rent. Inez asks her why she's so dressed up and Nicole says she
went to Chez Vous with a great guy whose family connections could get her into
the big time if she plays her cards right. Inez asks if Nicole could get her
a modeling job and Nicole tells her to slow down - she hasn't even started
working at Titan yet. Inez leaves and Nicole gets a phone call. It's late at
night, so she picks it up and yells, "Stop calling me!" But it's only Eric,
who wonders why she's so upset. Nicole says she gets prank calls and Eric
tells her to change her number. He says he just wanted to be sure she got
home okay. She thanks him and hangs up.
Bo asks Billie and Roman what's going on. Roman says he'll leave them alone
and gives Billie another hug and kiss before disappearing. Bo notices the
closeness between them. He asks Billie what she's doing out, and if she was
drinking. She says she only had mineral water and she was just bored and
unable to sleep. Bo takes her home and rubs her shoulders and then leaves to
get some pistachio ice cream because Billie says she craves it. Billie smiles
in triumph and tells herself her plan is working perfectly. When he's out
looking for the ice cream, Bo runs into Roman again. Roman says they need to
talk more and he reminds Bo of his promises to Billie in Rome. Bo wonders why
Billie told Roman so much and asks Roman when he appointed himself Billie's
protector. Roman says they're friends and he is looking out for her. He
tells Bo that right now, Billie needs him more than Hope does and Bo should
remember his responsibilities. Bo hates the lecture and tells Roman that he's
getting ice cream for Billie right now. Roman says he's only lecturing
because he wants to keep Bo from making a mistake. Bo says that's great, but
just as he will never stop loving Hope, Roman will always love Marlena. That
stops Roman short. Bo goes home and gives Billie the ice cream and decides to
sleep at her place so that he can go to the amniocentesis with her in the
morning.
John and Marlena kiss passionately as they watch "Grease." They swap a lot of
romantic talk and then leave the theater. On their way out, they bump into
Roman, who can't hide a look of pain. He quickly assures them not to feel bad
and to go on and enjoy their date. Although he is hurting, he smiles and
leaves them alone. He tells himself that there is only one way he will get
over Doc. Meanwhile, Marlena and John decide to go home, and Marlena says she
hopes Roman will find someone to love soon.
At the hospital, Mike can't get his mind off of his dance with Carrie. Lexie
sees him mooning and guesses why. Nurse Allie, whom Mike dated a few weeks
ago, comes by and tells Mike how sorry she is about the article in the
Intruder. An emergency develops and Mike has Allie page Craig Westley to
help, since he's the only other doctor on call. They all work together to
save people's lives and Craig keeps probing Mike about his relationship with
Carrie. He even takes Allie aside and asks why her relationship with Mike
didn't work out. Before she can tell him, she gets called away. Lexie is
disgusted with Craig, but manages to be polite. Craig calls Lexie away to
assist on an appendectomy. Mike looks at Allie and tells himself that if he
is going to get over Carrie, he'd better start focusing on other people.
At home, Carrie and Austin get undressed for bed. Carrie can't stop talking
about how amazing Mike was with the board members, especially when the drunk
man accused him of killing his wife. Austin listens to the story politely,
but obviously, he is sick of hearing about Mike 24 hours a day. He massages
Carrie's back until she relaxes and then starts kissing her, but Carrie says
she's too tired and has to get up early tomorrow. Austin is stung by her
rejection, but says he understands and holds her close. Carrie, however,
can't stop staring at a picture of Mike in a magazine she left on her
nightstand. She asks herself why she can't stop thinking about Mike.

FRIDAY MAY 1ST
COURTESY SOAP OPERA CENTRAL
At the Brady house, Eric tells his Aunt Kim about Madison, the runaway he
found at Salem Place who spent the night in the spare room. He says that he
saw her ID and she's only a kid. Kim says he did the right thing and she will
figure out how to help Madison. Madison comes out and meets Kim and they sit
down to breakfast. Kim gets a phone call from LA and Madison overhears her
calming someone down. Madison decides Kim must be a shrink and yells, "You
tricked me!" to Eric and runs out the door. Eric chases her down and tells
her that yes, Kim is a counselor, but she isn't here to call social services;
she just wants to help. He finally convinces Madison to come back and talk to
her. Madison tells Kim that she was in foster care her whole life and now her
mother wants her back, and she doesn't want to go. Kim says she understands
the anger and tells Madison about her own past - about being molested by an
uncle and turning to prostitution. She also tells her that when she decided
to reach out for help, she was met with love and support. Madison calls her
pastor and is surprised to learn that everyone has been looking for her and
the pastor and his wife want to take her in permanently. Eric takes her to
the bus station and they part ways, but Madison has a fantasy about dancing
romantically with Eric and says, as she's leaving, "Maybe I'll be back
someday."
Kate walks into her living room and wakes up Bo, who spent the night on the
couch. She rudely tells Bo that if he won't sleep with Billie, there are lots
of spare bedrooms. Bo says he just crashed on the couch so he could take
Billie to her amniocentesis. Kate tells him it's too little, too late, and
that he should stop spending all his spare time with Hope and concentrate on
his pregnant wife. Bo asks her what she did to make Hope quit. Kate says
Hope has her own mind and no one makes her do anything. Billie is
eavesdropping on them and walks in when the conversations starts getting too
heated. She tells Kate she can handle it and Kate leaves for the office. Bo
takes Billie to Dr. Bader's office for the amnio and has to practically hold
Billie down to keep her from walking out, she's so nervous. After the amnio,
the doctor tells them they'll call with the results. Bo pulls some strings
and gets Billie a private hospital room to relax in while they wait. Billie
is touched by Bo's solicitude.
At Salem Place, Sami and Roman sit down to coffee and Roman tells Sami that he
and Marlena will not be together. Sami is hurt and angry and tells Roman she
hates Marlena and John. He tells her to stop it, and it's nobody's fault what
happened. Sami says her whole world is crumbling. Roman asks what she means
and she tells him Franco led her on and then dumped her. Roman looks angry,
but tells her she's better off without him. He gives her a hug and she goes
to the office.
Vivian and Ivan run into Stefano, who has just put away the photograph of
"Kristen" with Elvis, which fooled him completely into thinking everything was
under control. Vivian flirts with him outrageously and invites him to dinner
at her place (little do they know that her place is Stefano's place). She
says she'll send a car for him. Vivian meets with a designer who agrees to do
her office, but wants $40,000 up front. Vivian tells Ivan to sell that ugly
statue in the hallway of the penthouse. Ivan sells it and gets the money.
Meanwhile, Stefano goes to Titan.
Kate is at Titan, annoyed to learn that Vivian is putting her offices on the
floor above Kate's office and the sound of construction is overwhelming. Kate
goes into her office and is angry to see someone sitting in her chair. The
chair whirls around and there is Stefano, who apologizes, but says he wants to
know what Titan's financial records look like for the past five years, since
he's 49% owner in the company. Kate tells Marie to give him the records, but
is plainly unhappy to have to bow to Stefano.
Franco bumps into Hope at Salem Place and asks her if she's going to the photo
shoot. Hope tells him that she quit Titan a few days ago because of Kate and
Billie. Franco is shocked and tries to talk her into coming back, but Hope
says her mission now is to find out about her past. Franco almost slips by
saying that Kate didn't mention this to him. Hope asks why Kate should tell
him anything about her, but Franco says it affects him because he and Hope are
modeling partners. She says she's sure he'll be fine without her. Franco
goes to Kate's office to confront her and is furious that she let Hope quit.
Kate says she had no choice and tells Franco that she is through putting up
with him and he should be concentrating on Sami. Franco yells that Sami is
the last person he wants to see right now. Sami, who is passing by the
office, overhears that and walks away, hurt. Franco storms out of Kate's
office after she tells him to get lost and runs into Marie, who gives him a
telegram. Franco rips it open and learns that the INS has discovered that his
green card is a fake and he is going to be deported unless he can think of a
plan. Suddenly, he remembers Sami. He goes to her office and stands outside
her door, thinking to himself that she might be just what he needs.
Heading back to Salem Place, Stefano sees Hope, who has just put away the
mirror with Gina's initials. He is polite to her and convinces himself that
she is not a threat. A few minutes later, Stefano runs into Roman and spills
his Titan reports everywhere. Roman sees them and asks what Stefano is doing
with Titan's financial records. Stefano tells him that he inherited Tony
DiMera's 49% of Titan from Kristen and he plans to take active part in running
the company - especially by working with the employees. Roman is appalled to
think that all three of his children will now be working for Stefano. Stefano
walks on and is startled when he sees a statue in an antique store window that
he is sure belongs to him. He concludes that Jonesy must have sold it and
gets a look of dark anger on his face.
Meanwhile, Hope telephones the doctor in New Orleans who worked on her
reconstructive surgery. He remembers her after a while and tells her he has
been wanting to talk to her because he has discovered something very
interesting about her case. Hope says she is on her way to New Orleans and
will meet him then.
