Lucas was sure of his love for Sami and promised to stop his mother once and for all. Worried about the sparks between herself and Brandon over Thanksgiving, Sami set off to get him out of town once and for all.
At Salem Hospital, Abe was released from treatment and could see. A surprised Brandon hugged his father but was distressed to learn that the eyesight was only temporary. Abe informed Brandon his experimental eye drops would only delay the inevitable and planned to make the holidays special since it would likely be the last one he would see. While Abe went off to see John, Sami found Brandon in the hospital hallway and asked him about Thanksgiving. Brandon assured her he was not flirting but perhaps her taking notice of her feelings was a sign she should postpone the wedding. Determined, Sami said that was never going to happen. Reassured of Brandon's non-feelings, Sami hugged him and ran out leaving a not so indifferent Brandon looking longingly after her.
At the loft, Belle worried about Shawn storming out but Philip told her to forget about Shawn and his insults. Talk then turned back to their upcoming nuptials. Kate overheard from the hallway as she was opening the door to the loft and was pleased as punch at the development. Her cheer was short lived though as Philip broke the news of his upcoming deployment. Kate bordered on hysterical as Lucas arrived to discuss Sami. After a couple of minutes of yelling at Kate to knock it off, Lucas learned of Belle and Philip's engagement. The beaming big brother went in to congratulate the twosome but was dismayed to learn that Philip was going off to war. To make matters worse, Belle informed him that their wedding date was the same as Lucas and Sami's just as Sami arrived at the loft. Freaked, Sami told Belle she was exactly like Carrie. Changing tactics, Belle suggested a double wedding with John walking them both down the aisle but the idea sent Sami into an even bigger rage. "I hope he never walks. I hope he wallows in pain!" shrieked Sami.
In the Salem County jail, Hope visited her son Shawn in the drunk tank. The disappointed mother asked Shawn what was wrong but Shawn could not remember the previous night's events. When Hope tried to tell him he was ruining his life, Shawn responded that he wasn't going to law school because he had dropped out of college. Understandably upset, Hope tried to call Bo but he was too busy with Billie to talk. Hope tried to talk sense to her son but he didn't want to hear about Belle when Hope and Bo's relationship was such a poor example for him. Ignoring Shawn's digs, Hope informed Shawn about the possibility that Georgia was alive causing Shawn to speak ill of his half-sister. Having had enough of Shawn's anger, Hope demanded he call Bo.
At the Salem PD, Bo and Billie worked to crack the code on the DiMera disk as they wondered what their teenage daughter would be like. Billie vacillated between joy over being a mother and despair over her daughter learning about her past and that she and Bo were not married. Bo tried to keep her calm. When Bo finally figured out how to crack the code, Shawn called but sensing a break in the case, Bo told the police officer to tell Shawn he would call him back. Finally, Bo discovered a clue involving latitudes and longitudes.
Delirious at Salem Hospital, John told a male nurse in his room "you're killing me." The nurse insisted no one else had been in the room before scuttling off. From the bathroom the gloved, needle bearing stranger emerged to inject more fluid into John's IV bag. Abe interrupted briefly to say hi but it only delayed the IV injection by a few minutes. Sweaty and in pain, John looked up at his attacker and exclaimed, "I was wondering when I would see you again."
