Stefano kept Kayla from escaping the warehouse. Dr. Rolf apologized for allowing her to get free. Stefano and Kayla ended up arguing. She wanted to know why he wouldn't let her go. He wouldn't let her go until he had Marlena. Kayla told him that Justin would never sacrifice Marlena for her. He assured her that wasn't true. She told him that they had to implant someone else's personality into Marlena in order for him to get her. They thought it was worth considering. Justin talked to John about what went down with Stefano. John was willing to help him with that situation. Evan held Sonny at gunpoint. Evan told him that he needed his help. He told Sonny the truth. Sonny was shocked that he had sex with Jordan. He thought he was with a man before he was with him. He fell for her, but didn't realize she was crazy before it was too late. He explained how he found out about David. Evan told him that he wanted to leave town and raise David. He told him that he needed money to leave. He would like to leave with Sonny and Arianna. Ciara called for a stay of execution, but the person didn't believe to believe her. She went to stop the execution before it was too late. The doctor was preparing for Ben's execution. Warden Floyd talked to Marlena. They were surprised Justin wasn't there. Ben was brought into the room where he was being executed. Will arrived and wanted him to be strong. Ben was strapped to the table so the execution could start. Ciara rushed in the room to stop the execution. She told the warden about the DNA evidence of the real killer. She had proof. Marlena asked the warden to listen to Ciara. She told the warden about Evan being Christian Maddox and that he's David's father. Will was shocked by that. He said that he was with Sonny. Will called Sonny, but didn't get an answer. Marlena told Will and Ciara to go and she would stay with Ben. Marlena called Abe to tell him about Christian. The doctor told Ben what to expect with the execution. Ben asked the doctor to wait. Marlena told Ben what happened. The warden decided not to give him a stay of execution. John and Justin went to the pub to get Hattie's help. They talked to her about Stefano's demands. They wanted her to pretend to be Marlena. She agreed to do it, but Roman didn't like the idea. Stefano called Justin. He told them that he wanted Marlena and he would let Kayla go. Hattie agreed to go away with Stefano. Will and Ciara went to the Kiriakis mansion. They saw the gun. They saw Sonny and told him the truth about Evan. He said he knew the truth. Will told Evan that it was over for him. Evan pushed Sonny out of the way and pointed the gun at Will.
Kayla: Explain to me how you made steve think that he's stefano. Rolf: Oh, steve doesn't think he's stefano. He is stefano. I was able to distill stefano's essence, his personality, his memories, well, his entire brain function really, and transfer all of it to a microchip which I then implanted in steve's brain. I always told you my work is revolutionary. Now you are experiencing it firsthand. Can you imagine what this could mean for the future? Kayla: Maybe I don't need to imagine it. Maybe--maybe you could show me your notes. Not everything, just a peek. Just so that I would really see your ability and what you're thinking. I mean, your mind has an incredible way of coming up with these extraordinary scientific advances. I--I just would be honored to see it. Rolf: I really shouldn'T. Well, I suppose one little peek wouldn't hurt anything. There, you see? It's great, no? Roman: Listen, you know as well as I do the longer my sister is out there missing, the more her life is at risk, so damn it, find her. Call me. Hattie: Hey. No word on kayla? Roman: Salem pd is certain that steve--stefano--has her, but he hasn't called in to make any demands, so we have no idea where he's taken her. Hattie: Well, he's not gonna hurt her. I mean, that's--that's steve and kayla. Roman: There is no trace of the brother-in-law I used to know in that man, all right? So for all intents and purposes, that is stefano dimera. God knows what he would do to her. Kayla: You know, I really am so thirsty. Do you think you could get me some water? Rolf: Well, I suppose you've earned a reward for not pulling anything while you were on the phone with justin. I'll be right back. Stefano: Going somewhere? John: Justin, aren't you ben weston's attorney? Justin: Yes, I am. John: Well, I thought you'd be at statesville to witness the execution. Justin: Well, I would be, but I have an emergency to deal with. John: What kind of emergency? Justin: Steve has kayla. Sonny: It just happened, okay and I've always been honest with you about where we stand. Even yesterday I told you I wasn't sure if I was ready to be involved with anyone, and you know that I've never stopped loving will. Only thing that kept us apart is that I thought he killed my mom, okay, but it's not true. So yes, we're getting back together, and I don't want to hurt you. You're a great guy. So I mean, the only thing I--the only thing I could say is I'm sorry. Evan: [Sighs, cocks gun] I'm sorry too. Sonny: What the hell are you doing? Ciara: No. No, no, no. Don't you dare tell me that the warden is not available, okay? You are executing the wrong man. Ben weston did not kill his sister. The real killer is the father of jordan's child, a man named "christian maddox," okay? He's been calling himself "evan frears," and he's been posing as the baby's nanny. Are you even listening to me? No, don't you dare hang up on me. Hello? Hello? Ugh! God, I hope it's not too late. Floyd: Dr. Evans, I'm warden floyd. Thank you for being here. Marlena: Yes, well, I'm ben's psychiatrist. I really care about him. I want to be here for him. Floyd: Well, looks like you're the only witness. Even his lawyer didn't show. Marlena: Wow. I'm surprised. Uh, may I talk to him? Floyd: Sure. Marlena: I'm right here. I want you to stay strong. I'm here for you. Will: So am I. Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. Kayla: Let go of me. Stefano: No. Kayla, you have to listen to me. Kayla: Justin said that he would give you whatever you wanted. Just let me go. Stefano: I can't do that. Although, I am glad to see that justin's willing to cooperate. Mm-hmm. You know, he seems as smitten with you as steve was. That is, before I inhabited his body. Kayla: He would be disgusted with what you've done with it. Stefano: Mmm. You know, being sequestered here in this rat hole with you is no fun for me either. So for both our sakes, I hope that justin does comply with my terms so that I can finally be rid of you. Hattie: Hey, look. You know, your sister's gonna be okay. I just know it. And that steve or stefano, whatever he calls himself, he's just a homicidal maniac. And you know what? He couldn't even--he couldn't even hurt hattie adams, and I'm just a--I'm just a humble waitress. Roman: You sell yourself short. You got street smarts, not to mention a good heart, so thank you. Hattie: For what? Roman: Well, I know you've been covering for me around here a lot since kayla was kidnapped, and I do appreciate that. Hattie: Oh. Well, it's just a thank you for all you've done for me. Roman: Well, it is nice to have somebody in your corner. Hattie: Always. I'm always in your corner. Roman: Well, again, thank you. Hattie: What was that? Roman: Well, if you got to ask, maybe I shouldn't have done it. Hattie: [Laughs] Stefano: Make sure it's tight enough this time. Kayla: Believe me. It's tight--it's tight enough! Rolf: I am sorry for my previous lapse, sir. Stefano: You should be sorry. You almost lost us our only bargaining chip. Rolf: I don't know what i was thinking letting my guard down like that. Dr. Johnson led me to believe that we shared a bond of medical and scientific expertise. Kayla: Except for I'm a real doctor, and you're a psychopathic madman. Stefano: Do not disparage dr. Rolf's skills. I am proof-positive of what he is capable of. Kayla: Oh, one monstrosity created by another. Stefano: I owe him my life. Kayla: Why are you doing this? Justin gave you your money. Stefano: Money was never what this was about. I came back to salem for something far more important. Kayla: Marlena. Stefano: My queen of the night. My destiny. Kayla: You are crazy. After everything that you've done to her, do you honestly think that you have a shot with her? She is never going to love you. She loves john, and she always will. Justin: Steve showed up at my doorstep demanding $10 million for kayla's return. John: You saw him face-to-face? Justin: Yeah. It was really, really weird. I mean, he was steve, minus the eye patch, but his voice and his mannerisms were pure stefano. John: Why didn't you go to the cops? Justin: I don't want to risk it. At that point, at least I knew that kayla was still alive. So he came back to get his $10 million, and he made a second demand, something he wants more than money, which is why I'm here. I need to talk to marlena. John: That's what he wants, isn't it, his second demand? In exchange for kayla, stefano wants marlena. Justin: Yep. Sonny: Please don't point that at me. Put that down. Evan: Look, you don't need to be scared of me. I would never hurt you, sonny. I just--I needed to get your attention. Sonny: Okay, well you have my attention. There was an attraction between us, and maybe if things were different between me and will, we could have a real shot. But will is the love of my life. He's my husband, and we are getting back together. Now, I know that's hard for you to hear. Evan: That is--this isn't about you breaking up with me. I am in trouble, sonny, and I need your help. Marlena: Oh. I'm so, so happy to see you, and I'm so relieved that you're free. Will: Me too. Marlena: Yeah. And I'm very touched that you would be here for ben. Will: Well, I--I did not expect to become friends with the man who killed me, but being ben's cellmate really made prison almost bearable. Marlena: I'm glad you were able to help each other through it. Will: Yeah. And now I'm gonna be here for him one last time. [Dramatic music] Expertly tailored eyecare. Roman: I'm sorry that kiss made you uncomfortable. Hattie: Well, the thing is, do you remember the time that I was helping john and marlena by pretending to be marlena, and that was when you said to me that you were proud of me? Roman: Yeah. I do remember that, and I was, and I still am. That was incredibly unselfish and brave for you to put yourself in danger to help them. Hattie: Do you remember what you did then? Roman: Should I? Hattie: Yeah. Well, you--you kissed me on the cheek like you did just now. Roman: Well, you know, now that you mention that, yeah. Yeah, I guess I did do that. Yeah. Hattie: Yeah. Well, see, the thing is that makes two, twice that you've done that, and I was just thinking I should find out if that means something. Roman: Does it have to mean something? Hattie: Well, kisses are kisses are kisses are kisses, and they all have different meanings, you know, and because I have these strong feelings for you, I just--I keep thinking about that last kiss, and I think about it over and over and over and over. Roman: You do? Hattie: I do. I do, and I thought maybe I should just ask you, because you were the one who said that there was, you know, no future for us. I thought I should ask you if you've changed your mind. Stefano: Marlena will come around. Kayla: The hell she will. And you are delusional to think that justin would ever trade her for me. Stefano: He loves you, and I love marlena. It seems a fair trade to me. Kayla: Except justin knows that marlena would never love you, and he would never sacrifice her that way. Stefano: Wouldn't he? You know, victor kiriakis is as ruthless as they come. He would stop at nothing to protect the people he loves. Perhaps some of that ruthlessness flows in his nephew's veins as well. Kayla: Justin is nothing like victor. Stefano: Mmm. I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the notion. I'm counting on it and so should you if you ever want to see him again. Justin: Let me be clear. I'm not suggesting that we trade marlena for kayla. John: Oh, I never thought you would. Justin: I just--we just have to make stefano believe that I'm cooperating until we can rescue kayla. John: No, trust me, I get it. I have dealt with this bastard in one form or another for decades. Justin: He doesn't give up, does he? John: Hey, I know you're scared, buddy. You've got every right to be. Justin: I lost adrienne. I can't lose kayla. John: It's not gonna happen. I got a plan. [Dramatic music] Ciara: Stop! Stop! You can't go through with this, okay? Ben is innocent. Floyd: How did you get in here? Ciara: This is wrong. Marlena: What's going on here? Floyd: Guard. Ciara: No. No, no, no, no, no! Listen! Listen to me. They have evidence. They have dna evidence that puts the real killer at the scene of the crime. Floyd: Are you serious? Ciara: Yes. Oh, god. I found david's father. Ben: You did? Thank god. Marlena: Wait, wait. You've got proof that ben is innocent? Ciara: I do. Marlena: Warden, you've got to hear her out. Ciara: Okay, ben did not kill jordan ridgeway. A man named "christian maddox" did. He's the father of jordan's baby. The cops thought that the dna evidence they found at the scene of the crime belonged to david, but it didn't belong to david. They were wrong. It belonged to his father. Floyd: How do I know all this to be true? Ciara: Because we searched through the database, the criminal database, and the evidence was a perfect match to maddox. Ben: Wait. You found him? Ciara: Yes. Yes, I did. He's been living under the assumed name "evan frears." Will: Did you say "evan frears?" Sonny: What do you mean you're in trouble? What happened? Evan: Rafe fired me. Sonny: Why? Evan: He-- Sonny: I mean, you're so good with david. Is it because he found out you have a gun? Evan: It has nothing to do with the gun. It's about david. Sonny: What about david? Evan: They found something in my background check. I did my best to hide it from rafe. But when he discovered what it was, he let me go. Sonny: I don't understand. What did he find? Evan: He learned that I changed my name. Sonny: Evan frears is not your real name? Evan: No. It's not. Look, I changed my name because I couldn't let rafe know who I really was. Sonny: Who you really are? I don't get it. Evan: I'm david's father. In america we all count. No matter where we call home, Roman: Look, hey, that kiss was just a show of appreciation. Hattie: Oh. Oh. Well, you see, the first kiss, you know, when that happened, I sort of told myself that, you know, maybe that could've been just a spur-of- the-moment thing. But then when the second kiss happened, it--it's like it was a little bit of a habit, and maybe it means something. I mean, is it started to mean something to you? Roman: Look, hattie-- Hattie: Because you know how I feel about you. You know. I have and have always felt that way about you, and um--look, I'm trying to be professional and all that because that's what you ask of me when I did the job. But I don't know. I'm just thinking maybe there's something a little more to it. Justin: Hattie. Hattie: Are you getting that something or something a little more? John: So glad that you're here. Hattie: Yeah. Not a good time, okay? I don't feel-- Justin: We need your help. Hattie: I'm in the middle of something here, okay? Just get a table. I'll bring you a menu. Justin: I'm sorry, hattie, but this can't wait. Kayla: Justin could serve marlena up on a silver platter and she still wouldn't love you. Unless of course you got old rolfie over there to give her a complete and total personality transplant like he did with you, and then, well, maybe then you have a chance. Stefano: Why am I talking to you? I don't care what you think. I will have marlena, and god help anyone who stands in my way. Rolf: With all due respect, sir, perhaps dr. Johnson raises a valid point. Stefano: What are you suggesting? Rolf: Well, I was able to transform hope into a princess. Why not transform marlena into a queen? Will: Evan frears is david's nanny. He's the guy that sonny has been seeing. Ciara: Right, right, right, no, but he's not actually david's nanny. He's david's father. Marlena: Does sonny know this? Floyd: Look, I have heard enough. Your convoluted story sounds like another desperate attempt just to try to stall this execution. Marlena: No, no, no, no. We can't go forward. Not when there is doubt about ben's guilt. Floyd: The only way this stops is from a stay from the governor. We're moving forward. Marlena: Don't you care that you have the wrong man, warden? Floyd: He was convicted by a jury. In fact, the conviction was upheld three times. Ciara: What if that was wrong? What if this new evidence changes everything? Marlena: Does evan know that his secret is out? Ciara: When rafe found out he was lying, he fired him. Evan was pretending to be packing his things, but he took the baby and he fled. Marlena: And he has david. Ciara: What if evan hurts him? Marlena: No. If he's the father, I don't think he will. Ciara: Rafe put out an apb, and they're out there searching for him right now. Will: I know exactly where evan is. I just saw him with sonny. Sonny: I know how much you love david. Evan: More than anything in the world. Sonny: And as a caregiver, you spent just as much time with him as anyone. My friend lani used to take care of david when rafe was looking after jordan in the hospital, and she fell in love with david too. Evan: It's not the same thing. Sonny: Evan, you may love david like a son, but-- Evan: You're not listening to me, sonny! I'm not saying david is like a son to me. He's my flesh and blood. Sonny: What? Evan: Jordan and i had a child together. David is my son. (Vo) do you push through four or more migraine days a month? Roman: All right, listen to me. Are you sure kayla is safe? Justin: Yes. Stefano let me speak to her. I have agreed to give him the $10 million he demanded, but it turns out he wants something more. He wants marlena. Roman: Oh, that son of a bitch. How much more can he put her through? John: Tell me about it. And if doc knew about this, I'm sure she would do whatever she could to help kayla, but right now she's in statesville watching ben's execution. Hattie: Oh. Oh. So you need my help? John: We know it's a lot to ask, but we were kind of hoping maybe you had one last performance in you. Roman: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You want hattie to pretend to be marlena again? Hattie: It was pretty hairy last time I did it, but if you need my help, I'm in. Justin: Hattie, thank you so much. You have no idea how much this means to me. Roman: Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Nobody wants kayla home safe more than I do. Believe me. But stefano almost killed her the last time she tried to help you guys out. John: We don't plan on putting her in harm's way. Roman: That's exactly what you're gonna do. Look, I'm worried sick about my sister, but this doesn't feel right. It doesn't feel right to put her right back in the lion's den. Rolf: I believe I can give you your queen of the night, sir. Kayla: You have got to be kidding. Stefano: I have no doubt that you are capable of a great many things, rolf. But I made it clear from the very beginning I want marlena to choose me of her own free will. Rolf: Free will is a very gray area, sir. Stefano: Not in this case. I don't want to be with some robot impersonating marlena. I want her. Kayla: Is that supposed to be romantic? Stefano: Love is when two souls connect. That is what marlena and i are meant to share. Kayla: Give me something to stuff in my ears please. I think I am going to be sick. Stefano: You of all people should understand what true love is. Kayla: Obsession is not love. Stefano: I assure you that what I feel for marlena is very real. Rolf: I appreciate your desire to connect with the genuine marlena, sir, and I would never assume anything less. Stefano: Then you understand why I don't need your help in this situation. Rolf: Well, given how strongly she has resisted you in the past, I would just suggest that there are different ways to coax things along. Stefano: Coax things along how? Rolf: Well, I mean, I wouldn't have to turn her into a different person. She would still be dr. Marlena evans. Merely a bit more receptive to your advances, a little more susceptible to your considerable charms. Kayla: This is total madness. You guys are insane! Sonny: Wait. So wait, you slept with jordan? Evan: Remember when I told you I was in a relationship out west that ended badly? Sonny: You were talking about jordan? I just assumed that you were talking about a man. Evan: It was easier just to let you think that. Sonny: It was easier than telling me that david is your son? Evan: Look, I've been with both men and women. I was attracted to jordan from the moment that we met. Sonny: I--I just can't believe I'm hearing this right now. Evan: She was beautiful, and there was something offbeat about her that I just really fell for. Sonny: "Offbeat?" Is that a euphemism for "clinically insane?" You do know she almost killed ciara and ben? Evan: Look, I know that she wasn't the most stable person, but it wasn't until the end that I finally realized what a psycho she truly was. Sonny: What did you do? Will: Evan came by to see sonny, but he didn't have david with him. Marlena: Well, are you sure about that? Will: Yes, I'm positive. I walked by his car on the way out, and there's no child in it. I left them alone together. Come on, sonny. Come on. Pick up. Floyd: I have had enough of this. We've scheduled an execution, and this stunt is not gonna delay it any longer. Marlena: But you don't want to execute an innocent man. Floyd: I don't decide guilt and innocence. Marlena: I understand that. But if you go ahead, there's no turning back. What about contacting detective hernandez? Floyd: I have a directive. Ciara: Sonny's not answering. Marlena: Okay. Look, the two of you go ahead. Warn him what's going on. I'll sit her with ben. Ciara: Marlena, I'm counting on you, okay? Marlena: I understand. Ciara: Okay. Ben, baby, you can't lose hope, okay? 'Cause I'm gonna get you out of there. I'm gonna find christian maddox. I'm gonna bring him here. I'm gonna make him admit that he killed your sister, and we're gonna get you out, okay? I'm getting you out of there. I swear. This is not the end for you, okay? Ben: I love you. Thank you. Thank you. Ciara: I love you, too, okay? Okay. Okay. Justin: Roman, we don't have a lot of options right now. John: We're running out of time. Roman: We'll figure out another way to save my sister, but we can't put hattie's life at risk again. Kayla wouldn't want that either. Hattie: Look, roman, it's really sweet of you to be so protective of me, but I'd like to help. Roman: Hattie-- Hattie: And your sister is a very good person. She does not deserve this. Roman: Do you know what you're offering? Hattie: Yeah. Well, you said that I have a lot of street smarts. I can handle steve. Roman: It's not steve. It's stefano dimera. Hattie: All right. All right. John: She handled him before, roman. Roman: Really, john? She barely got away. Stefano almost strangled her to death. We can't ask her to go through that again. Hattie: Roman, I can do this. I really want to help. I want to help your family, and I want to help you. Justin: It's her call to make, roman. Marlena: Look, you can't go through with this now. With new evidence, you've got to put the execution on hold. Floyd: I haven't seen any evidence. Marlena: No, but you heard what ciara said. Floyd: You expect me to take his girlfriend's word? Look, that's not how this works. The time for new evidence was at his trial. He was convicted. Marlena: Convictions are turned over all the time. You know that. Floyd: He appealed three times, none of which changed his sentence. Marlena: Then we've got to reach out to the governor. See what he can do to stop this. Floyd: Good luck trying to get him to take that call. The execution continues as planned. Doctor, please proceed. Ben: Wait, no. No, no, no. Hey, hey, you can't do this. What about the new evidence? Marlena: Ben, abe knows the governor. I'll call him right now. Evan: I didn't do anything, okay? We broke up. She moved away. I didn't even know she was pregnant at the time. She never told me. Sonny: Then how did you find out? Evan: I--I saw pictures on her social media, and she was beaming holding this little baby. It wasn't hard to do the math. Sonny: So then what? You just tracked her down here to salem? Evan: Yes. And I found out she was living with rafe. Sonny: I just don't understand it. If you're really david's father, why not just announce yourself? Why would you create a fake name and then take a position as the nanny? Evan: I didn't have any choice. No court was gonna let me have my son. Sonny: Why not? Evan: Because I have a criminal record. Sonny: What? What crimes did you commit? Evan: It doesn't matter, sonny. All that matters is that I did what I had to do to be close to my son. It was heaven to be with him every day, to care for him, to see how much he relied on me. Sonny: I know. I know. But it was all a lie. Evan: Yeah, but our relationship is real. I didn't think it could get any better until I met you, and I saw what a perfect family we could become, you, me, david, and ari, but now everything's falling apart, and that's why I need your help. I just need enough money to leave salem with my son. Sonny: Wait. Where's david? Roman: Hattie, listen. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you wanting to help my sister, but you need to hear me. Neither I nor kayla could ever live with ourselves if something happened to you. Hattie: I'll be fine. Really. I'm a survivor. Me and the roaches. Roman: Yeah, well, besides it's a bad plan, we've already substituted her for marlena once before. He'll be wise to us doing it. John: I'm not saying he won't figure this out eventually, but we're gonna buy ourselves some time. Justin: Yeah, or even force his hand by getting him to meet with us face to face. Roman: You want to use her as bait? Justin: Look, roman, I wouldn't ask this of anyone if I didn't think kayla's life hangs in the balance. It's kayla, which means it's stefano. John: Here we go. Put it on speaker. Justin: Stefano. Stefano: Counselor. I trust that by now you've reached out to marlena. Justin: Yes. I've approached marlena. Stefano: Mm-hmm. My patience is wearing thin. Do we have a deal? I will release kayla if marlena agrees to go away with me. Evan: David is safe. Sonny: What does that mean? Where is he? Evan: I can't tell you that, not right now, but you believe me, don't you? Sonny: Yes, I believe that david is your son. Evan: And you understand why I lied? Sonny: I understand why you pretended to be his nanny, okay, but you can't leave town with david. You need to go find rafe, and you need to explain yourself to him and the authorities. Evan: They'll never understand! I won't lose my son again! Please, I need your help, okay? Just enough money for a fresh start. I mean, you have plenty to spare. Sonny: Is that what this was about? My money? Evan: No. No, and I hate asking you because I really care about you. I just thought--I hope you'd care enough about me now to help me. Sonny: Evan-- Will: Sonny. Sonny: Hold it. He's got a gun. He's got a gun! Evan: Get away from me! Sonny: No. Evan, don'T. Don'T. Ciara: His name isn't evan frears. His real name is christian maddox, and he's david's father. Sonny: I know. He just--he just told me. I know that he was with jordan before he came to salem. I know. Ciara: Sonny, he wasn't just with jordan, okay? He killed her. He killed jordan, and he let ben take the fall. Isn't that right, christian? Evan: You shouldn't have come here. Marlena: Abe, thank you so much. Please hurry. There's not much time left. Ben, abe is contacting the governor. Just hold on. Floyd: I told you I'm not waiting any longer. Marlena: You have to wait until we hear from abe or the governor. You just have to. Floyd: It is my job to oversee this execution, and I intend to do so. Doctor, are the ivs in? Please explain to the prisoner what is about to happen to him. We flush a saline solution through the ivs to make sure the lines are not blocked. The initial injection is a barbiturate that acts as an anesthetic so you will not feel what's happening. The second is a muscle relaxant that will diminish your breathing. And finally the third injection stops your heart. I switched to miralax for my constipation. Stefano: I'm waiting for your answer, justin. Justin: The answer is-- Kayla: Justin, don't do it. Don't risk marlena's life for mine. Hattie: Stefano, it's me. Stefano: Marlena? Is it really you? Hattie: Yes. Please don't hurt my friend. Stefano: I have no intention of hurting anyone. Hattie: Good. Good. So we will do the switch. Kayla for me. Just tell us what we need to do. Sonny: Is this true? Did you kill jordan? Evan: Don't listen to her. Ciara: No, no, no. It's true, sonny. Some of the dna that the police found, they thought it belonged to david, but it really belongs to david's father. The evidence is indisputable. Will: She's right. Sonny, he's a murderer.
