While Brady and Nicole drove home from their day of hang gliding and watching planes take off, Nicole smiled and hoped they could do it all again. She explained that even if they never got this chance again she would have the memories of that day. Brady asked if she could go back and change things what would she do differently? After remembering her dad drugging her up and forcing her to do porn she quickly moved to the memory of shooting Colin on her wedding day...coming back to the present she decided not to reveal her secrets to Brady and said he wouldn't be interested. He argued that he wanted to know everything about her because he cared. Instead Nicole convinced Brady to keep driving past the mansion so she could take him somewhere. Before long they arrived at a playground. At the swings they met a young girl and played with her for a while. Brady realized quickly that Nicole was just "a great big kid who will make a great mom someday." Nicole's mood darkened and she told Brady that she would never be a mom because Victor didn't want more children. On the way home Nicole seemed happy, but began to feel depressed as they neared the mansion. Brady finally caught on that Nicole was constantly stating she felt trapped and he wanted to know why she and Victor stayed in an unhappy marriage, but Nicole refused to tell anything.

Across town, Sami and Lucas burst into Sami's apartment to answer the ringing phone. Sami was anxious to talk to Will, but it turned out to be a telemarketer instead. Lucas said he had a letter from Will they could read, but Sami became jealous and said Will wrote to Lucas more than he did to her. Lucas explained that Will couldn't talk to his mother about guy things. As they sat down to read the letter together, they were close enough to kiss, but the doorbell rang and interrupted them. While Sami got up to sign for her delivery, Lucas read the letter in which Will told his dad that he loved his mom. Sami's delivery happened to be fancy cookies to mail to Will at camp, but Lucas pulled Sami over to the kitchen to make some of Alice's homemade cookies for Will instead. Sami fretted over not even owning baking pans and said she had failed as a mother. Lucas convinced Sami that if she didn't make the cookies for Will she would feel even more inadequate as a mother. Sami then told Lucas about a dream she'd had in the hospital when everyone wanted to stone her for being a bad parent. Lucas stopped her and told her that she was a good mother and that Will loved her even though she was a terrible baker. For that remark she threw flour at Lucas and a food fight and lots of laughter followed. After another near-kiss...Sami quickly turned away to clean up and put the cookies in the oven. Lucas apologized for giving Sami a hard time in the past and said he was proud of the way Will had turned out. In a strange twist, the two started recounting each other's pasts when Will had endured hardships caused by their shortcomings such as Lucas's drinking problem and when Sami lied to Austin and he left her at the altar. Lucas struck a low blow when he said he would've been a better father if he'd known Will was his from the beginning. They baited each other into arguments for a while before Sami reassured Lucas that Will was lucky to have a good father in his life unlike she had had. She angrily told Lucas that John Black had not been a father figure to her and that he had ruined her life. While they ate cookies Sami explained that she had pretended to like John, but actually detested him and that John caused her mother to be disappointed in her. She decided that Marlena was actually under John's spell and Sami became mad all over again that John had broken up Roman and Marlena's marriage. They suddenly remembered the cookies in the oven and jumped up to pull out a perfect batch...something Sami was sure Marlena couldn't have accomplished. While they talk about fond childhood memories, the conversation turned to Tony and they asked each other why they hooked up with Tony in the first place, but the phone rang and they were "saved by the bell."

When Mimi and Rex entered the DiMera mansion they discussed how terrible it was to see Tony hooked up to all the machines at the hospital. Rex dreaded having to tell Tony about the botched deal for the natural explosive. Mimi said that maybe it was for the best that Bo and Hope blew the substance up. Just then, Cassie arrived and asked to talk to Rex alone and Mimi headed upstairs. Cassie announced to Rex that he was in "major trouble" and explained to Rex that Commander Carver had cornered her to ask questions about the Bo and Hope case. Cassie demanded to know the truth from Rex about whether or not he was responsible for the attack on the Brady duo. She told him that she didn't tell Abe Carver anything, and only wanted to protect Rex. He wanted to know why she suspected him and Cassie described her memories of the bloody pipe, the unexplainable stain on Rex's shirt and that she saw him try to scrub the stain off. Rex became angry and Cassie said she didn't think he did it, but that he had to admit that it looked suspicious. Rex then asked her what she was talking about, and Cassie realized that Rex had no memory of anything she had recanted. She worried that something was truly wrong with him, but he said it was more important now to save the DiMera name after their huge loss of money.

In the meantime, Philip looked intently at the computer while Belle dealt with the reality that Rex could have actually been so violent towards Bo and Hope. Shawn added that maybe Cassie had been in on it, but Philip defended her and said there was no way she would have done it. Suddenly, they heard a noise out in the hall; it was Bart teasing Mimi about being a trespasser while she "begged" for mercy. Belle, Shawn and Philip watched the door in horror as they listened to Bart and Mimi catch up on the jazz music genre. Bart told her that he was listening to music when he got the tingly feeling that someone was in the house and that he was checking it out. Belle and Shawn panicked and went to the window to leave, but Philip told them to go ahead and he'd catch up. Belle tried to get him to come with them and then the door handle began to turn. Mimi slightly opened the door while still speaking with Bart, but then closed it again. While the three trespassers let out a sigh of relief, Bart accompanied Mimi back downstairs to find what was taking Rex so long. A nervous Belle and Shawn waited while Philip printed off Rex's five-year plan that proved he had a motive for harming Shawn's parents. Instead of leaving, Philip decided that there was more to print and told Shawn and Belle to get out and that he could handle Rex. Shawn then became defiant and said it was his fight and that he wasn't taking orders from Philip. Belle deterred them from their macho argument and reminded them that they were supposed to be a team. Just then they heard Bart in the hallway saying that someone had turned off the security alarm. He asked Rex and Cassie if they had turned it off, but both said no and Cassie headed out to the pool. Mimi left to get snacks and Rex vowed to turn the house upside down until he found who was snooping. Hiding on the stairway, Belle overheard Rex's statement and rushed upstairs to tell Philip and Shawn. Shawn convinced Belle and Philip to leave and then sat down at the computer. Philip climbed down first and rounded the corner to find Cassie going to hang out by the pool. While Belle got caught in the trellis, Rex entered his bedroom and demanded to know why Shawn was at his computer.
