Nicole overheard Daniel and JJ talking about Theresa. Kristen wanted to find out what was in Eric's head so she wanted to see. Eric stopped Kristen from leaving the chapel. Marlena was happy that she found Kristen's flash drive. JJ was upset that Nicole could have heard what they said. Daniel wanted to talk to Nicole about what she heard. Eric just told Kristen that he would perform the ceremony. Kristen wanted to pick Eric's brain about Nicole, but he gave her nothing. Anne went to Daniel's office and talked to Marlena about Daniel. While they were talking, Marlena dropped the flash drive. Jennifer talked to Brady about Daniel and Theresa. Daniel asked Nicole what she heard. Nicole knew that Daniel was covering for JJ. Daniel explained what would happen to JJ if the judge found out the truth. Marlena was looking for the flash drive when Kristen showed up at the office. Brady had trouble believing that Daniel's dating Theresa. Brady wanted to talk to Daniel for Jennifer. Daniel wanted Nicole to keep quiet about JJ. Nicole didn't think it was a good idea to keep the truth from Jennifer. Nicole finally promised to keep quiet. Daniel and Nicole talked a little more and he realized that she was in love with Eric. Kristen didn't see Marlena looking for the flash drive, but she did notice that she was acting jumpy. Marlena taunted Kristen about her secrets coming out during the wedding. Jennifer, Kayla, and Hope talked about Daniel being with Theresa. Daniel and Nicole continued to talk about her love for Eric. Nicole let Daniel know that Eric thinks she drugged and raped him. Nicole explained to Daniel why Eric thought she raped him. Kristen denied doing anything to hurt Brady. Kristen walked out of the office so Marlena picked up the flash drive. Daniel believed that Nicole didn't rape Eric. Marlena started to look at Kristen's flash drive. Kristen went to Daniel's place and saw Nicole there. Marlena watched the flash drive and something shocked her.
Marlena: Okay. Oh, there you are. [Sighs] [Sighs] Just... oh, my God. It's Kristen's flash drive. [Laughs] Ooh, yes. Brady: Moved on? What are you talking about? Is he seeing someone else? Jennifer: Oh, yeah, I guess you haven't heard. Daniel brought his latest fling into the hospital last night. I guess they were hanging out, and she suddenly O.D.'d. Brady: Wait, wait, wait a minute. Sami told me that her cousin Theresa O.D.'d last night and that Daniel-- Jennifer: Yes, that's right. That is his latest involvement, a vindictive little snake who just wants to make my life a nightmare. Theresa: Have you told my parents yet? Kayla: Um, I haven't been able to reach them yet. So I guess it gives you a little more time to recover, huh? Theresa: But you'll keep trying. Kayla: Your family will. You screwed up big-time, kid, but I guess you get a second chance. Use it wisely, all right? Daniel: JJ-- JJ: I-I need--I need to know what's going on with Theresa. Did she say anything? Daniel: No, she didn't. She doesn't remember what happened last night. So for now, as long as we stick to our story, no one's gonna know you were there when she O.D.'d. JJ: Yeah, but you'll be stuck covering for me. Everyone's gonna think that you were there to sleep with her. Daniel: Well, it's a lot better than you going to prison, right? JJ: Oh, my God, anyone but her. Daniel: [Sighs] Kristen: Whatever Eric remembers, he seems to think that it was Nicole... [Sighs] Which works out great for me. But if he remembered that much, then isn't he gonna figure out that it was me? Oh, God, yes, he will. So I have to find out what's in Eric's head, and the only person he ever opens up to is Daniel. That's what I have to do. I have to have a little chat with Dr. Jonas. Eric: Good, I'm glad you're still here. We need to talk. Kristen: I was just on my w-- Eric: I'm sorry, but this can't wait. After we talked earlier, I-I realized I was completely wrong about everything. Now I see the truth. Marlena: What is this doing in Daniel's office? Well, it doesn't matter why it's here. What matters is what is on this flash drive will make Brady leave Kristen for good. Daniel: I will explain. Just give me a minute with JJ. Just a minute, okay? Nicole: Okay. Daniel: Come on. JJ: Why didn't you tell me she was here? Daniel: Well, you didn't give me a chance. JJ: She hates me. I-I know that she heard everything, man. She's gonna tell everyone. Daniel: No, she won't. JJ: She hates my guts. Daniel: Okay, JJ, I will handle it. JJ: Dude, she could send me to prison. Daniel: Okay, JJ, you need to listen to me. You need to get it together, okay? Just breathe. I am gonna go in there. I'm gonna make sure she doesn't tell anyone. You meet me in my office in an hour, okay? Focus. I need you to focus. All right? Take this. Use the back stairs. Make sure nobody sees you. If maintenance has locked the door, which they probably have, just use that key. You sit there, and you sit quietly. JJ: What are you gonna say to her? Daniel: Do not worry about it. Just go. JJ: [Sighs] Daniel: [Sighs] Nicole: What the hell is going on here? Kristen: I don't know what you're talking about. Eric: All right. Well, I'm not happy about Brady and you not being honest with me about Nicole... but I never should've said I wouldn't marry you two. I made a promise, and my boss hates broken promises. Kristen: [Laughs] Yeah, he must be hell to work for. Eric: Tell me about it. Kristen: Thank you so much. Aw. Really, it means so much to Brady and me, especially to Brady. Hey, maybe if you wanna talk to me a little bit about the problem you're having with Nicole, I could help. You know, maybe you can tell me what happened, I could... Eric: No, I don't wanna talk with you about that. Actually, I'd appreciate it if you forgot anything I said about Nicole at all. Kristen: Okay, it might be a little hard to do, but okay. [Knocks at door] Marlena: Checking up on me? Anne: Well, you said that you were gonna leave a note. I don't--I don't see a note. Marlena: Well, I thought I'd call him tomorrow. Anne: Meaning you'd kick it around a little and then forget about it. Marlena: Meaning I thought I'd call him tomorrow. Anne: You know, last we spoke, you were head of the ethics committee. Ha--have you--have you stepped down? Marlena: Of course not. Anne: Okay, so then does it not concern you that what Dr. Jonas did is not only unethical, but quite likely criminal? Marlena: That is not your determination to make. Anne: You know, I seem to be the only one around here taking this seriously. Marlena: You seem to be a close-to-neurotic woman bent on being a vigilante. Now, please, get out of my way. Anne: No. [SCENE_BREAK] Victor: [Clears throat] Truce? Maggie: So you're trying to buy me off with flowers, huh? Victor: I already told you, Marlena and I are not planning on doing anything that's going to hurt anyone. Maggie: Well, I don't think Marlena would, but it did cross my mind that you might be trying to, mm, I don't know, get information out of her? Manipulate her in some way so that you can--can go off and do whatever it is you wanna do that you know I don't want you to do. Victor: It wounds me that you even think I'm capable of something like that. Maggie: Fancy words for saying "the truth hurts," right? Okay, my love. I will stop and smell the roses. They are wonderful, you know? All right. We'll declare a truce. Victor: Let's celebrate. Maggie: Not so fast. Let's set the terms up first. I'll stop cross-examining you-- like I said before--if you don't end up hurting someone that I love, because if you do, I will put these roses where the sun don't shine, thorns and all. Sonny: How's--how's your mom doin'? Abigail: Well, she's not great. I mean, how could she be? But she does not wanna talk about it at all. I texted her, and normally she responds right away. Sonny: Well, I know why you're mad at her. I get that, okay, but Dr. Jonas? That is not cool. He's a doctor. Abigail: And Theresa Donovan is just an evil bitch. This is all her fault. Brady: Look, I'll admit, I don't--I don't know anything about this Theresa person, but she doesn't sound like Daniel's type, and I think you're making a mistake. Jennifer: Brady, you know what? There have been a lot of mistakes, and I am the one who broke up with Daniel. I-I really hurt him. So he has a right to see whoever he wants to see, but her? I mean... Brady: "Her"? You put a lot into that "her." Jennifer: Because I feel like he's doing this to--to hurt me, to--to pay me back. She is not his type. She's just this little perfect piece of revenge. Brady: I'm sorry. Sorry. It doesn't sound like Daniel at all. Jennifer: Okay, well, he is not the man that you think he is, and he is not the man that I thought he was. Daniel: Um, how much did you hear? Nicole: Enough to know that you're covering for that little punk, and--and something to do with Theresa, Eric's cousin Theresa? Daniel: Yes, yes. She O.D.'d last night. JJ was there when it happened. He was scared to death, so he called me. Nicole: What are you, the drug hot line now? Daniel: I got her to the hospital. She's fine now, but what's important is that no one knows that JJ was involved. He's still facing criminal charges. Nicole: Because he did criminal things. Daniel: Okay, if the judge finds out JJ was any way connected to an incident involving illegal drugs, JJ will go straight to jail. The judge is not gonna give him any more chances. Nicole: No. You are. Daniel: You know, I would think you of all people would know that he needs a break here. He's trying to put his life back together. Nicole: No. He's trying to cover his ass. Daniel: Well, he could've left her there. He didn't have to call me. Nicole: And you were the perfect person to call, right? Daniel: Nicole-- Nicole: Look, okay. I know better than anyone that your middle name is "good Samaritan," but let me ask you a question. What did--what did he mean when everyone thinks that you slept with that girl? Daniel: Uh, you know, it-- it--for reasons too complicated to get into, but there is no-- no way for me to explain why I was there without implicating JJ. None. Nicole: You are risking your reputation for a kid who hates you... Daniel: [Sighs] Nicole: Because you love his mother. That's why you're doing this, aren't you? Marlena: I don't pull rank, but I am senior staff. You have challenged my authority and questioned my integrity. And speaking of integrity, you're a person who has openly attacked Dr. Jonas-- well-documented--a doctor who saves lives. And you are a person who files. He is a man who does his job well. You are a person who does her job poorly. Anne: Wow. Who's making personal attacks now? Marlena: I'm talking about your reputation at the hospital. There isn't a person who works here who isn't intimidated by you or enraged by you. Anne: Oh, yeah, so let's do that. Let's move off the subject of Dr. Jonas's disgusting transgression, and make this all about me and how unpopular I am, like I give a damn, simply because I don't take crap from people. And P.S., I don't file. We have a-a digital filing system here, and it's managed by the interns and/or the clerical staff, not by me. I do not file, okay? I-I-I manage personnel. Marlena: What we know about Dr. Jonas is he saved a woman's life. What we know about you is you are insecure, and manipulative, and will do anything and hurt anybody to be more powerful... Anne: [Sighs] Marlena: And I will not allow Dr. Jonas to become your victim. I will have the conversation with him. And if you don't back off, you will find yourself up on charges. Now, get the hell out of my sight. Anne: [Sighs] Gladly. And I would appreciate it if you would stay the hell out of my sight from this moment forward. Okey-dokey? If you have any complaints, you can take it to the chief of staff or to the hospital board, and I can assure you they will vigorously and wholeheartedly defend me. Do you know why? Because I happen to be a highly respected senior executive here at this hospital, Dr. Evans, your vicious and self-righteous rant notwithstanding. [Door opens, slams] Marlena: Flash drive. Kristen: Fancy meeting you here. JJ: You hear that? talking about when I came in here? It looked--looked real intense. Abigail: It was about Theresa. JJ, there's something really important that I need to tell you. JJ: Yeah, she's in the--she's in the hospital. I heard. Abigail: It's more than that. Theresa has been having a thing with Daniel. It's absolutely crushing mom. JJ: Yeah, I bet. Abigail: You know, I would almost guarantee that that slut was only after Daniel just to stick it to mom. Sonny: That's sick. JJ: Yeah, but it's true. Theresa's a user in every meaning of the word. She takes drugs, and she uses people. She--she doesn't care what happens to them or if it ruins their lives. Abigail: Whoa. Talk about intense. I thought that you actually liked this chick. What changed? Jennifer: Brady's here. And as Daniel's best friend, he's having a hard time believing me about him. Brady: Actually, that's not what I said at all. It's not that I don't believe you. It just doesn't sound like Daniel. I mean, some random girl with a--with a drug habit. Jennifer: No, I know, but I told you, he--he chose to be with her to hurt me, Brady. Okay, no, I-I don't know that. All I'm saying is I don't wanna talk about it anymore, and I don't wanna be in a room with you and Kristen pledging your love and fidelity to each other. Oh, gosh, this is insane. How did this even happen? How? Hope: It's okay. It okay, you don't have to go. It's all right. Come here. Kayla: Maybe this isn't the best time. Brady: [Sighs] Uh, Jenn, you know what? Let me talk to Daniel. Jennifer: Brady, I am not asking you to uninvite him. Brady: I'm not going to do that. I just think it would be best if I talk to him and try to figure this out. Okay? I'm sorry. Daniel: So I can count on you to keep this to yourself, right? Nicole: You've got it bad, and that's not good. Daniel: Okay, Nicole-- Nicole: How many times has she shoved you away? How many times has she not believed you? Daniel: Okay, do you really wanna get into this? Nicole: I mean, you're not even together anymore. Daniel: It doesn't even matter. It doesn't matter. Nicole: What does matter is that kid you're covering for is a drug addict little creep. Daniel: No, that little kid is Jennifer's son, and if he goes to prison, it will kill her. It will kill her. Nicole: And what about you and your reputation? Daniel: Okay, listen, I-I-I am--I am just calling on all my favors right now with you, please. I have kept a secret or two with you, right? Nicole: And look how that turned out. Look how that turned out, Daniel. I mean, have you--have you even thought about what Jennifer's gonna think if--if she hears that you slept with her son's little drug buddy? Daniel: Yeah, well, that ship has sailed. She was there when I brought Theresa in. I mean, she can deal with that, but she cannot deal with losing JJ. She won't-- Nicole: Daniel. Daniel: Okay, Nicole, please, will you just promise me that you will keep this to yourself? Please, promise me that. Nicole: I promise. Daniel: Thank you. Thank you. [Sighs] Nicole: Love sucks, doesn't it? Daniel: Yeah. It so sucks. Nicole: God, we have a lot of terrible things in common, don't we? Daniel: Yeah. Nicole: I mean, isn't it fun when the person you love most in this world thinks that you're... Daniel: What? Nicole: Nothing. Daniel: No, you--you came here because you were upset that Eric said something. You did something terrible? What--what was that-- Nicole: I'm gonna go. Daniel: No, just now, you said-- Nicole: I said nothing, okay? They're just words. Daniel: No, the person you love most in this world is-- is--is Eric? Oh, God. Nicole: Yeah. "Oh, God" just about sums it up. Kristen: What the hell are you doing in Daniel's office? Marlena: And that would be any of your business? Kristen: Where is he? Marlena: I think he left for the day. Kristen: I thought he'd still be here. Marlena: Didn't know you were tracking his schedule. Kristen: It's shocking, I know, but I do have a couple friends, and Daniel happens to be one of them. Marlena: Well, I guess you'll have to see your friend some other time. Kristen: It's always such a pleasure. Marlena: Hm. Kristen: You know, you seem a little jumpy. Is there anything wrong? 3q my asthma's under control. of a very long and difficult day, and I've run into somebody that I don't especially like. Kristen: Oh, so you're just hanging out in Daniel's office, huh? Marlena: Hm. [Cell phone rings] Marlena: I'm gonna leave him a note, not that I owe you an explanation. Kristen: Excuse me. Aw, it's a text from Brady. He's just so cute. You know, it's a last-minute wedding detail. I think he's more excited about the wedding than I am. He's so cute. Marlena: I wouldn't be so cocky if I had as many skeletons in my closet as you do. Wouldn't it be a shame if one of those fell out right before the wedding? JJ: I guess, I don't know, Theresa, she's just another example of someone getting screwed up by drugs. You know, now that I have my head on straight, I can see what she was really like. And even before, I-I never liked the way she treated mom. Abigail: Yeah. Well, I mean, clearly, I'm not her biggest fan, but I do think that Daniel should've shown some restraint. Okay, I just completely dissed Daniel and left the door wide open, and you're not gonna say anything? I don't get it. I thought this would be your big I-told-you-so moment. JJ: I don't think I should pile on. No, he's already gonna pay for what happened. Abigail: Yeah, big-time. JJ: So Sonny, um, have you heard from will? How's--how's Berkeley? How's he doin'? Sonny: Well, he just got there, so no news yet. Abigail: Well, did you tell him about Theresa? Sonny: No. I don't want him to worry. There's really nothing he can do about it, and Theresa has plenty of family to look after her here. Eric: How are you feelin'? Theresa: [Sighs] Tired doesn't even begin to describe it. Wiped out. Embarrassed. Confused. Eric: Confused about what? Theresa: I know I O.D.'d last night. I mean, the way I--my body feels makes that very clear, but what's unclear to me is everything else that happened that night and most of yesterday. It's just a big blank. You can't imagine how frustrating that is. Brady: I wanted to ask you out Daniel. Do you understand this thing that's going on between him and Theresa Donovan? Maggie: No, I don't. And he doesn't wanna talk about it, so I-I mean, it seems like it's true. I just don't understand him being so insensitive to Jennifer. Victor: Oh, would you stop worrying about it? As far as I'm concerned, the man has done nothing wrong. Brady: [Sighs] Kayla: Jenn, listen. Daniel said that Theresa called him, and--and he--he went over there. And he found her passed out. Jennifer: No, I-I know, and I keep trying to see this from his point of view, because I hurt him. I did, and I did not handle things well. But Theresa? [Laughs] I just keep thinking the only reason he would even choose to be near her is to hurt me, and that is so not Daniel. Hope: Maybe there's another explanation. Daniel: Oh, wow, I had no idea you were in love with Eric. But looking back, all the signs were there. I mean, how long have you felt this way? Nicole: Almost since the day he got back. Daniel: So you went to work for him. That way, you'd spend endless hours with a guy who is completely unavailable? Nicole: Well, you know me. I never do anything halfway, and that includes unrequited love. Daniel: Right. I'm--I'm sorry. Nicole: He was my first love, the one that got away. You know, he was--was always sexy. But then he came back sexy and saintly, Albert Schweitzer played by Ryan gosling. Daniel: [Laughs] And he had no idea you felt that way? Nicole: No, I--and I-I really tried hard to keep it that way because I didn't think it would be fair to him. But then, he did find out, and the timing was horrible. And--now, in his eyes, he thinks I had motive to do what he thinks I did. Daniel: Well, what does he think you did? Nicole: [Cries] He thinks I drugged and raped him. Jennifer: I mean, if there were another explanation, why wouldn't Daniel have given it? He pretty much admitted why he was at her place. Why would he lie about that? Kayla: I'm so sorry about all this, Jenn. Jennifer: Yeah, and you know it means the world to me that you guys are here, but I-- Hope: You really want us to go? Jennifer: I guess I'm just seeking a certain sense of denial, and it's easier done without sympathetic friends and family. Kayla: Mm. Well, uh--oh, gee, look at the time. I gotta get back to the hospital. Hope: Oh, and I'm heading that way, so, cuz, you know how much I love you. You're gonna be fine. Jennifer: I love you. Thank you. Hope: I love you too. You're strong. You'll be fine. Kayla: Happy denial. [Laughter] Kayla: Good luck with that. Jennifer: Thanks. Kayla: Yeah. Hope: And you look beautiful. Jennifer: Thank you. I mean, it doesn't matter. [Door closes] Jennifer: It doesn't matter. I mean, it really, really doesn't matter. It just doesn't matter. [Sighs] Then why does it hurt so much? [Sighs] Victor: All right. Here's what we know. Daniel saved some young woman's life. So we're gonna rake him over the coals for that? Maggie: That isn't the issue, and you know it. [Cell phone rings] Maggie: [Sighs] [Mutters indistinctly] Uh, it's chez rouge, and I have to take this, which is probably a blessing, because I don't really wanna hear what you're about to say. Victor: He's your son. You're supposed to be on his side! Maggie: I know. I am. Brady: She is on his side. She's upset. You--you should've seen how upset Jennifer was. Victor: She dumped him. Cry me a river. Brady: You callous much, Victor? Victor: [Sighs] He's family. He's my godson, Maggie's son. My loyalties are first and foremost to him, just as they are to you, which means tomorrow, I'll be there at your wedding while you vow to honor and love the psychopath of your dreams. Brady: I think I'm gonna cry. Victor: Yeah, well, watch me at the wedding tomorrow. Brady: Huh. Theresa: You must be so ashamed of me. Eric: You know, we all make mistakes. It doesn't define you. It's how you handle it, the mistakes, that matter. Theresa: [Laughs] Even by that definition, I'm a screw-up. Eric: Well, this may be an opportunity to change that. You may not know this, but I work for a guy who might be able to help that. Theresa: The thing is, Father... [Sighs] I don't think I'm cut out to be as pure and saintly as you. Daniel: What? I mean, how in God's name can he think you have anything to do with this? Nicole: I don't know. I don't know. I barely understand it myself, and it all happened that night he got sick at the capital. I-I mean, his memory's fuzzy. He thinks he was drugged, and then--you know, by some woman. Daniel: Well, he doesn't remember it was you. Nicole: 'Cause I didn't do it. Daniel: No, I'm not--I don't mean it like that. That's not what I'm saying. I just--I don't know, I think he would get a few more details before he starts accusing you of something so--that's so-- Nicole: He's such a mess. He's a mess. He's a mess, and he's frightened, and he's not thinking straight, and I'm really worried about him. Daniel: I'm sorry, what? He accuses you of rape, and you defend him? Nicole: Jennifer dumps you, and you take the rap for her kid? Daniel: Yeah. Quite a pair, huh? Nicole: Something happened to Eric that night. Someone did something to him. Daniel: Yeah. I always thought he was deliberately poisoned, so let me get this straight. Eric thinks it was you. But I thought I remember him saying something about the woman having dark hair. Nicole: There's more. I mean, this hotel clerk told Eric that there was a woman in disguise, and she demanded the room right next to his. The clerk said that woman was me. Daniel: Well, Eric thought the--the woman was the one that got him sick-- Nicole: Yeah. She used the name "Fay Taylor." That was my mother's name and my sister's name. Yeah. It all hooks together, one damning bit of evidence after another. And yes, I know I have done some horrible, terrible things, but I did not do this, Daniel. I swear. I swear I didn't. Please tell me you believe me. I... [Cries] Kristen: I learned my lesson. I don't keep secrets from Brady. Marlena: I think we both know that's not true. Kristen: [Sighs] [Mutters indistinctly] Boom. You know, if you're referring to the trash that Nicole is spewing, it's all a bunch of lies. Marlena: So you deny the affair? Kristen: It's nothing but a lie. Even when Brady and I weren't together, he was the only man in my heart. Marlena: Yes, but we're not talking about the man that was in your...heart. Kristen: You know what? Marlena, I don't care what you and Nicole say, or what you believe, because guess what. Brady believes me. Me, and nothing will ever convince him otherwise. Have a lovely day. [Door closes] Marlena: Not so sure you're right about that. [SCENE_BREAK] Nicole: that I lied to you, Daniel, but I swear--I swear I did not do this. Daniel: I-I believe you. Nicole: [Cries] Daniel: You're not lying. I mean, you wouldn't do something like that. Nicole: Thank you. And you have no idea how much that means to me. [Cries] Oh, God, Daniel, I feel so alone right now. I feel so alone. JJ: So what happened with you and Chad? I thought things were good with you two. Abigail: Well, they were, but it just didn't work out. Sonny: Hope you're doing okay. Abigail: Yeah. Well, not really yet, but I will be. I'll be fine. Sonny: That's good. [Cell phone rings] Sonny: Ah, it's a text from will. I'm gonna go take this. Excuse me. Abigail: Yeah. JJ: Oh, you know what? Hey, I'm gonna get going too. Abigail: Okay. JJ: But hey, if you want me to beat up Chad when he comes back into town, just say the word. Abigail: Thank you. That is a very sweet offer, my brother, but it is not necessary. Plus, I kinda think I could take him. JJ: Okay. Well, listen, come here. I love you, okay? I'll do anything for you. Abigail: Thank you, JJ. I love you too, and I know that I have said this to you like a million thousand times already, but I am just so glad to have my brother back. And I'm really glad that you finally came to your senses before you got into any more trouble. I was really worried about you. JJ: Yeah. Well, hey, things are good now, okay? No more worries. Abigail: Okay. JJ: All right, well, I'll see you later. Abigail: All right, bye. JJ: [Sighs] Theresa: I know I'm a screwed-up ms, but you seem a little not-you tonight. Is something wrong? Hope: Hey. So you are awake. Hey, Eric. Eric: Hey, hope. Hope: Hi. Good to see you. Eric: Good to see you. I was actually on my way out. Listen, if you need anything, call, all right? And think about what I said. Hope: Bye. Eric: Bye. Anne: [Sighs] It's terrible what happened to Theresa, isn't it? Eric: I'm sorry, do I know you? Anne: Oh, oh, I'm Anne Milbauer, yeah, Theresa's boss and her friend. And you're her cousin, right? You're Dr. Evans's son? Eric: Yes, that's right. Anne: Well, if you care at all about Theresa, you may wanna talk to your mother. For some reason, she's just hell-bent on allowing Dr. Jonas to get away with all this without taking any responsibility. Eric: And what does Dr. Jonas have to do with this? Anne: Oh, no one told you? Oh, he's the one who brought her in. Yeah, he was with her at her apartment. Eric: Why? Anne: I don't know, from what I hear, he was workin' on his bedside manner, if you get my meaning. Nicole: Thank you. Thank you so much. Daniel: Should I talk to Eric? Nicole: No, please. Not yet, okay? I mean, there's--there's more I should tell you, but I'm-- I'm just--I don't feel like it right now. Daniel: Oh, okay, okay. I'll--I'll go talk to JJ, let him know that he can trust you to--to stay quiet. Nicole: Could I just stay here for a little while? You know, just get myself together? I promise I'll be gone by the time you get back. Daniel: No, no, you know what? I don't want you to go. Don't go. You can--you can stay here in the--in the guest room. I don't think you need to be alone right now. Nicole: Thank you. It's good to have a friend. Thanks. Daniel: Hey, Nicole, the truth is gonna come out, and Eric's gonna realize that you didn't do anything wrong. Nicole: I wish I could believe that, Daniel, but how? How? Marlena: There must be something on here that proves Kristen had an affair. With whom? I found it in Daniel's office, but he'd never get involved with Kristen. Okay. One way to find out. Of all the places in your house... Kayla: [Hums] Eric: Hey. Kayla: Hi. Eric: I just heard some very vile innuendo. Kayla: Uh, let me guess. You just talked to Anne Milbauer. Eric: Yeah, was it Daniel who found Theresa in her apartment? Kayla: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Eric: Why was he there? Kayla: I don't really know. Um, I gotta see a patient. Okay. Eric: Daniel and Theresa? Theresa: [Sighs] It--it's weird. I-I don't even remember having drugs on me last night. For all I know, somebody could've slipped them to me. Hope: Right. Is there anything else you remember? Do you recall me coming by your apartment, and we had a conversation? Theresa: Not at all. [Sighs] The pope could've been in my house last night. I-I don't even remember. JJ: All right. So you're sure Nicole won't say anything? Daniel: Yeah, I am positive. JJ: Okay. But there's still Theresa. Dude, if she says anything, I am screwed. Daniel: Okay, JJ... Jennifer: Daniel, I saw-- JJ, what are you doing here? Kristen: Daniel, I hope you can tell me what's going on in Eric's mind, how much he remembers. Nicole: [Groans] Kristen: What the hell are you doing here? Nicole: I could ask you the same question. Marlena: Come on, I need to know what's on this drive. [Taps key] [Gasps] No. No, it can't be.
