Sami is hesitant to tell Lucas why she is truly upset about the new baby. While Lucas is out buying celebratory supplies, EJ calls Sami to gloat about being back in town. EJ walks into Roman's office but denies having shot John. Roman has EJ booked and put in a cell. Chelsea has Nick, Abby, and Billie join her at the pub and announces her plan to start attending college. Billie gets angry and leaves when Chelsea teases her about her secret lover. Nick makes an excuse to leave and runs after Billie to talk. Shawn calls Philip to taunt him about being close to the border. Music from the radio causes Steve to have another flashback to getting shock therapy. Police officers try to pull over the delivery truck but Steve has Shawn take the wheel while he throws packages out of the back to divert the cops following them. The cops pull over and Steve instructs Shawn and Belle to head for the border while he jumps out the back of the truck to serve as a decoy. Philip yells at Roman and accuses him of helping Shawn and Belle. Roman confronts Philip about his plans to take Claire out of the country. Philip reports Belle's wedding ring as stolen so that he'll be alerted should she try to sell it for money.
Sami: [Sobbing] Lucas: Baby, why are you crying? Honey, you're pregnant. That's great news. It's something to celebrate. Don't cry. Are you sure? I mean, are you sure that you're pregnant? Sami: I've been nauseous every day this week, and so I bought a pregnancy kit and... it's positive...twice. Lucas: That's great, then. I mean, we finally get to share in having a baby together. I mean, we'll be together from day one. It'll be -- it'll be great, honey. What could be better than that? Sami: Oh, my God. What am I gonna do? [Sobbing] Lucas: What do you mean what are you gonna do? We're gonna call everyone we know. That's what we're gonna do. You call your mom. I'll call my mom. We'll tell the whole world. Baby, you -- you want this child, don't you? Sami: Lucas, I want to have your child. I do. I just, um -- I'm just afraid that... Lucas: What's going on? What are you so damn afraid of? [SCENE_BREAK] Chelsea: Hey, you guys, over here. Abby: We were summoned, my lady? Chelsea: No, I just asked you politely. What are you guys waiting for? Sit down. Nick: We're waiting for your permission. What else? Chelsea: Would you guys stop it? I invited you here as my guests. Abby: But you never told us why, Chelsea. What is it that you really want from us? Chelsea: Um...I want your forgiveness. [SCENE_BREAK] Steve: Hey, sweetness. I got to cut this short in case they're tracking. We're close to the destination. There's nothing to worry about. I'll give you a call as soon as the packages are delivered safely. Shawn D.: Wait, Steve, let me talk real fast. Steve: Hold on. You got 20 seconds. Shawn D.: Hey, Aunt Kayla. I can't call my mom or my dad or Marlena, but just tell them that we're gonna call them as soon as we can. Belle: And tell them that we love them so much, please. Steve: Time's up. Let's roll. Shawn D.: Wait, let me just grab a cup of coffee real fast. Steve: No. Shawn D.: It's just gonna take a minute. I mean, don't you guys want something? Is Claire -- is she okay? Steve: All right, let's get the baby some juice. Come on. Shawn D.: Um, I'm gonna catch up with you. Just one second. [SCENE_BREAK] [Cell phone rings] Philip: Kiriakis. Shawn D.: I sure hope dropping you into that hole didn't screw up that pretty new face of yours. Philip: Where are you? Where's Claire? Shawn D.: We're just about to cross the finish line. I just wanted to call one last time and say goodbye. Philip: Damn you. Shawn D.: Claire is my daughter -- mine and Belle's. You and Victor are never gonna ever get your hands on her again. Philip: Fine. You run, Shawn. But you better keep running, pal, because sooner or later I'm gonna find you, and when I do, I swear to God -- Shawn D.: God isn't listening to you anymore...pal. Have a nice life. [SCENE_BREAK] Philip: All right, what are you doing? Come on, catch me up. Roman: Thanks for knocking. Philip: Hey, my daughter was kidnaped, and I want to know where she's at. Roman: We got our eyes on every road headed North. Trust us, we're on top of it. Nobody's gonna get out of the state. Philip: Then how come I just got a call from your nephew who says they're about to do just that, hmm? Tell me about how they're not gonna get away, Roman. Roman: Philip, we're doing every damn thing we can. Philip: What you're doing is helping your family break the law. Roman: Really? You know what, Philip? I had no idea you had such a respect for the law, 'cause from what I understand, you and your father had already planned to violate that judge's order yourselves and take Claire out of the country. Did I get that wrong? [SCENE_BREAK] Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of our Lives. [SCENE_BREAK] Roman: You know what, Philip? I, uh...I heard Brussels. Does that ring a bell? Philip: My family has businesses all over the world. We have offices there, and if we had to travel, of course I'd take Claire. Why not? Roman: Because the agreement says you can't. You know what I think? I think you were gonna grab Claire and head out of the country and never come back. Philip: I don't really care what you think. Are you bringing back Shawn and Belle or do I have to call up my lawyers? Roman: You don't want to care what I think? You don't care? You know what? That breaks my heart. You want a suggestion, though? You don't like what we're doing, you don't like our efforts on behalf of you, then call Victor. Tell him to hire his own police force. Philip: Hmm. So that's how you handle a child being kidnaped -- telling the father, "you want your kid back, you take care of it." Put yourself in my place, Roman. How would you feel -- calm? Roman: No. No, Philip, I wouldn't. Philip: You don't like me? Fine, that's fine. I can live with that. Our families have major problems. We always have. Maybe we always will. But I love my little girl, Roman. Look at me. I'm asking you here, begging you. Please, help me get my little girl back. [SCENE_BREAK] [Slow-tempo music plays] Steve: Oh, man, what is this? Some driving music. Good old R&B. [Radio tuning] [Instrumental music plays] Steve: I'm out here in the middle of nowhere. You'd think there would be something other than this elevator crap. [Radio tuning] [Rock music plays] Steve: I guess that's not bad. At least it's got a beat. [Banging] [Indistinct moaning] Steve: Stop. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it, damn it! Shawn D.: Steve. Steve: Oh, it's all right, man. It's okay. We just had a tailgater. He passed us. Everything's cool. Everything's cool, man. Go back to sleep. [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: Is that Chelsea or is that some pod person that took over your body? Abby: Shh, you're gonna scare it away. Chelsea: Okay, ha ha. Very funny. I deserved that, but let me know when you guys are done so I can start to apologize, okay? Abby: All right, Chelsea. What are you gonna apologize for? Chelsea: I am sorry for all the mean things I've said. I never meant to hurt you. Well, aren't you guys gonna say anything? Nick: Like what? Chelsea: I don't know. I thought maybe you'd kind of sort of forgive me officially. What are you doing? Nick: I'm looking for cameras. I mean, are you joking? Are we being punk'd? Is Ashton gonna come out in a second? Chelsea: You're very funny, Nick and cute. Abby: Look, we've seen this act a million times before, Chelsea. Chelsea: Yes, but -- Abby: Yeah, and this time it's different because Dr. Shane Patton, your soul mate from the internet, told you to be nicer to people. Chelsea: Well, he is a very smart, very wise -- Abby: Very good-looking guy. Chelsea: He can't help it if he's attractive, Abby. It's like Kate Winslet once said, "Beauty is a curse." Or maybe that was Kate Hudson or Kate Moss. Nick: Do you think that you'd still be trying to change if it weren't for this guy? Chelsea: Come on, you got to give me some kind of credit. I've been bending over backwards trying not to be shallow. I mean, it's true. I like looking at Shane. I'm not blind. But it's more about, um...how he thinks and what he says. I mean, those things that he used to write me, they made me want to make other people feel happy, I mean, the way he made me feel. Nick: You really miss him, huh? Chelsea: With all my heart. Abby: But, Chelsea, the last thing he said to you was goodbye. Maybe you should just move on. Maybe we should all move on. Chelsea: Sometimes I wish I could, Abby, but I can't. I can't let go, and I never will. Abby: Why not? Chelsea: Because I think that I'm in love with him. Actually, I know I am. [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: It's just that things have been so great for us, you know? I mean, right now it's just better than it's ever been. Lucas: And you think we're gonna blow it? We're gonna blow it if we're having a baby? Honey, we talked about our future and how great it's gonna be together. Sami: Well, we never talked about having another child. Lucas: Yeah, I know, but listen. Here, come here, sit down for a second. I got something to tell you, a little confession, but I think you can handle it. Sami: Lucas, I love you so much. Whatever you have to confess... Lucas: Listen, I've always wanted to have another child with you. You're an amazing mother. You really are, honey. I think it brings out the best in you, and I know Will's always wanted a little brother or sister. Sami: It's not that simple. Lucas: Yeah, it is. I'll help. I'll help with everything -- with the diaper changings, the 3:00 AM feedings. I don't care. I would do anything for our baby. Sami: Don't! Don't say it! Lucas: Baby, this is a miracle. Our baby is a miracle. Don't get upset about it. I mean, we're together. We're stronger than we've ever been. And when that baby's older, we can tell them about the night they were conceived -- you know, how you saved me and you lifted that beam off me. Sami: Are you sure it was that night? Lucas: Yeah, we hadn't made love for a while before that. It had to be that night. Sami: You're right. You're right. It must have been that night. Lucas: Yeah. [SCENE_BREAK] Shawn D.: Steve. Steve: You got to keep quiet. You'll wake the baby up. Belle: She's fine. Steve: Oh? Hey, you okay? Everybody okay? Belle: Hey, maybe you should slow down. Steve: Just relax. Everything's under control. Belle: Yeah, but we don't have a car seat, and you're going too fast. Steve: We just got 20 miles to go. We're almost home free. Now you close your eyes, go back to sleep, and before you know it, you'll be in the land of the Maple Leaf. Shawn D.: Steve, are you sure you're okay? Steve: Stop worrying, all right? Just relax. You got to trust me. Everything is okay. Nothing can go wrong now. [Siren wails] Shawn D.: Oh, my gosh. Steve: Uh-oh. [Chuckles] Here we go. We got company. Belle: No, we're so close. Shawn D.: Steve, what are we gonna do? What do we do? Steve: Just hang on. Everybody hang on. [SCENE_BREAK] Chelsea: You guys are both so quiet. Abby: Uh, that's the way you like it. Gives you more room to talk. Chelsea: No, I like it a different way now. Abby: You're really serious about this, aren't you? Chelsea: Yep. And it's all because of Shane. You know, I really think if everybody had somebody like him in their life, the world would be a better place. Nick: You know what? I'm really sorry. I have to go. I'm so sorry. Chelsea: Oh, hey, look who it is. Mom, got some nachos over here on me. You guys don't mind if my mom sits with us, do you? Nick: Why would we mind? Why would we mind about that? [SCENE_BREAK] Billie: Hi, everybody. Abby: Hey. Billie: Hey. I just came back from my meeting. I thought I'd come by and pick up some of Caroline's chili. Chelsea: Why don't you just eat with us? Billie: No, that's okay. I don't have time. Chelsea: Oh, come on. Nick, pull her up a chair. I've got very exciting news for you all, and I'm really glad you could be here for it. [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: Is it really hot in here? I'm really hot. Billie: What is this exciting news that you -- Nick: Oh! I am so sorry. That was totally my fault. Billie: No, no, it's my fault. No, it's my fault. Nick: I'm gonna go get some napkins. Billie: Nick, go get napkins. Chelsea: Why is everyone acting so weird? It's just water. What's wrong? Nick: Nothing. Billie: Nothing. [SCENE_BREAK] Lucas: Honey, this is great news. Please don't be upset. It's a sign. Sami: A sign of what? Lucas: It's a sign that we were meant to be together. I mean, we had a child the first time we even tried. That's got to mean something. We're supposed to be together. This is supposed to be. Can I feel it right now? Does it...feel weird? Sami: No, I don't. It's too early. It's too early, Lucas. Lucas: I don't know about you, but I can already feel the bond that we're gonna have with this baby. It's probably a little girl or something. The little miracle was conceived on a night of miracles when you saved my life. Sami: I don't want praise for that, Lucas. I would do anything for you. I love you. You and Will are my life. You're my family. Lucas: And your family is so proud of you. Sami: I hope that never changes. Lucas: It's never gonna end. [SCENE_BREAK] Lucas: Well, that's not good enough for you, not for my hero and my mother-to- be. I'm gonna go get some stuff. Sami: What? Lucas? Lucas: I'll be right back. I'll get some good stuff. Sami: Where are you going? Lucas: I'll be back. Don't worry about me. Grab my coat. Sami: Are you sure you're gonna be warm? [SCENE_BREAK] E.J.: Have you been dreaming about me? Sami: Damn you, E.J. I told you never to call me. E.J.: Would you rather we did this face-to-face? I could stop by. Sami: Oh, my G-- oh, my God, you're here. E.J.: I am indeed, my dear. Close enough to reach out and touch. Sami: Why? Why the hell are you back? E.J.: For you, of course. Sami: Me? E.J.: We have unfinished business, Samantha, but you already know that. Things are far from over between you and I. [SCENE_BREAK] Roman: All right, Philip, let me get this straight. You think because I don't like your father, I would let Shawn and Belle take the law into their own hands. Philip: I think everyone in Salem is hoping that they cross into Canada. That's what it think. Root for the underdogs, right? Roman: You can't blame a mother for wanting to keep her baby. Philip: And I'm a father trying to hold on to his! I've lost a lot, Roman, but I'm not gonna lose Claire, too. You got that? Roman: I do, Philip. I get that. Now, you told me Shawn called you, right? Said they were getting close to the border. Now, you know that, that -- Philip: Doesn't mean anything. I know that. Even the stolen truck might be a decoy. For all I know they might be hiding with Claire in their parents' pub, or maybe you do know and you're holding back. Roman: You know something? Every damn time I start feeling a little sorry for you, you remind me why I shouldn't. Philip: I don't really care what you think of me. I just want results. Roman: Okay, here's a result you may not like. What if Shawn was telling you the truth? What if they already are up there in Canada, planning the rest of their lives? Well, if that is indeed the case, there's not a damn thing you, me, or anybody else can do. [SCENE_BREAK] Belle: Oh, my God, Shawn. We can't do this. Shawn D.: Belle, we've got to, okay? We have to. Steve: I'm not going back. I'm not going back. Belle: We need to stop. This is way too dangerous. Shawn D.: Steve, we're gonna have to pull over. Steve: No, no, no! I'm not going back! We got to keep going! Shawn D.: There's nowhere to go. If you think you can outrun them, you're crazy. Steve: Watch me! Officer: Pull over, or I'll shoot your tires out. Pull over now. Belle: You're gonna get us killed! Shawn D.: Steve, pull over. Steve: I'm not pulling over! Shawn D.: We're not gonna make it. Steve: I'm gonna make it! Bastards! [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: Yeah, because I'm hormonal. Lucas: It's not hormones. Something's going on. I know you. Something's eating you up inside. Just tell me what it is. Baby, I'm asking you to trust that our love will be strong enough. Trust me, damn it. [SCENE_BREAK] Chelsea: I'm serious, you guys. My mom's not normally like that. I'm really kind of worried about her. Abby: Everybody has bad days, Chelsea. And you were making fun of her. Chelsea: Oh, my God, Abby. That's it. The guy she slept with is married. He's married. That's why she won't tell me his real name, because he needs the privacy and she's ashamed of what happened. She's embarrassed about it. Nick: Oh, my God. [Car alarm wails] Chelsea: What? Nick: Do you hear that? That's my -- I think that's my car -- I'll be right back. It's my car alarm. [SCENE_BREAK] Chelsea: So, what do you think? Abby: About you going back to school? I think it's great. I mean, the semester starts in a few days and...Chelsea, are you sure you're gonna be ready? Chelsea: Yeah. As ready as I'll ever be. You only enrolled part time, right? Abby: Yeah, that way I can stay working for Max. Chelsea: Abby, Max will let you do hours whenever you want. Why don't you just register full time? Come on, just one semester. Just try it. Think about how much fun it would be. We could study together. We could go to football games, frat parties. What do you say? [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: Mrs. -- Billie. I'm sorry. Billie: You didn't say anything wrong, and you didn't do anything wrong. Nick: No, I-I know. Neither did you. Billie: I have to go. Nick: No, no, no, please don't. I think we need to talk, don't you, about -- about that night? [SCENE_BREAK] Lucas: Sami? You do trust me, don't you? Sami: Of course I do. Lucas: Tell me why you're so upset. Sami: I'm just crazy. You know, I can't help thinking that someone or something is going to ruin everything for us. Lucas: Is it because E.J. called you the other day? Is that it? Sami: It's not just about E.J. It's just things, you know -- things beyond our control. Lucas: And you still think that you don't deserve it, right? That's the old Sami talking again. You tell her to shut up, stay out of our lives. No one -- nothing is gonna come between us this time. That's all in the past. I promise you, all right? We won't let it. Sami: Lucas... Lucas: What, you love me? Is that what you're gonna say? You love me? I love you, too, but you're gonna love me even more once you see what I got you here. I got you the good crackers in case your tummy gets upset. We got caviar, cheese, and enough virgin Piña Colada to fill a tub with, baby. We're celebrating tonight, me and you. Celebrate our new addition. What do you say? Sami: Thank you. Thank you for making me feel hopeful. Lucas: Just have a little faith, okay? That's all I'm asking. I got it. I got enough for both of us -- for all three of us -- all four of us. I got more than enough. [SCENE_BREAK] Roman: You know what, E.J.? I thought you had a little class, but I guess not. And since we're talking -- you and me -- quietly here... E.J.: Nothing like intimacy, is there? Roman: You know I was outside that boathouse the night you shot John. E.J.: Was it a stakeout? Roman: Yeah, he was wired. You jammed the signals. That's when I should have come in. E.J.: Well, I would agree with you...if I had the first idea what you were talking about. Roman: John Black is one of the finest men I've ever known. He may not come out of that coma. E.J.: Well, that's a pity. Roman: Yeah, and you stand there with that dumb-ass smirk on your face, thinking you're so smart. E.J.: You haven't got a clue what I'm thinking. Roman: No? Tell me. E.J.: I'm thinking the man sullied my reputation, broke into my safe-deposit box, and planted bugging devices in my apartment. He got exactly what he had coming to him. Roman: Don't you ever say that, you son of a bitch. Don't you push it, E.J. Don't you push it. E.J.: What are you gonna do, huh? Come on. Roman: Remember what I said, E.J. Don't you push it. Casarez. Casarez: Yes, sir. Roman: Get this son of a bitch out of here, process him, and put him in a cell. Take him out now. Casarez: Let's go. Come on. [SCENE_BREAK] Philip: Hey. If and when Shawn and Belle cross into Canada, they're gonna need money. And there's only one thing of real value Belle took along with her -- her wedding ring. Belle tries to sell it, alarms will go off all over. Roman: So, you reported it stolen. Well, good for you, Philip. I'm glad you got everything under control. Philip: Claire is as good as in my arms already. My baby's coming back home... to me. [SCENE_BREAK] Belle: Oh, God. I still can't believe this. Shawn D.: You mean that we made it to Canada? Belle: Yeah, well, but, no, not that. I mean what just happened back there. Shawn D.: With Steve? Belle: Yeah, it was like he was possessed or something. Shawn D.: But if it wasn't for him, we'd be on our way back to Salem and Claire would be in Philip's arms. Belle: I hope he's okay. Shawn D.: Yeah, me too. Belle: So, what do we do now? Shawn D.: You mean where do we go and how do we get there? Belle: Yeah. I guess we'll figure it out as we go, huh? Shawn D.: Yeah, we will. I'm gonna take care of both of you -- you and Claire. Trust me. Belle: I trust you. I trust you with everything. I just think about never seeing my family again -- Shawn D.: Hey, shh. We're gonna see our families again. You'll see, if you believe in me. Belle: Us. I believe in us. Here we go. [SCENE_BREAK] Kate: Did you shoot John or not? E.J.: Kill a man in cold blood -- I couldn't that. You know that, don't you? [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: Tek and Lexie aren't coming back. Lucas: Why not? Why would you say that? Sami: Because they're dead and E.J. killed them. [SCENE_BREAK] Conner: Give it up, Mom! You're a Lockhart, Mimi, and you got a right to know. Mimi: Who is it? [SCENE_BREAK] Chelsea: Nick, I really like you.
