Steve tells Kayla about waking up in a motel room the day he "died." Abby reunites Jack with Jack Jr. Frankie offers to step aside so Jennifer can be with Jack. Jennifer assures Frankie that she still wants to be married to him. Jack spots Frankie consoling Jennifer and asks Steve to take him back to the hospice to die. Lucas warns Austin that Sami only wants to elope because she's done something to jeopardize their nuptials. Austin refuses to believe it without proof so Lucas calls Lexie over. Lexie arrives and declares plans to oust Sami. Shawn blames Bo for Hope fainting. Mimi, Philip, and Belle overhear Shawn proclaim to Bo that he knows how it feels to lose the love of his life. The comment sends Mimi storming out of the room and later asking for a divorce. Philip is furious with Shawn and questions Belle about whether she'd go back to Shawn should Mimi leave him. Patrick asks Hope to confirm Bo's claim that they are getting reunited. The doctor informs Hope that she is pregnant.
Abby: I'm so glad you're home, Daddy. All those months you've been gone, I never really believed you were dead. Jack: Abigail, I'm so sorry for what I've done to you -- you, Jack Jr., your mother. I was acting like I was doing the right thing, trying to protect you from watching me go downhill and see me end up like that. I just love you so much. Abby: I love you, too, Daddy. We all do. Jack: [Inhales sharply] Abby: Here. Jack: No, no. [Breathing heavily] Abby: I think I know something that will make you feel better. I'll be right back. [SCENE_BREAK] Kayla: Of course I'll answer your questions. I'll tell you everything that you want to know...about your old life, about us, about your family -- all of it. Nick: All right. I don't know where to start. Kayla: I do. I have a question for you. What really happened the day you supposedly died? Steve, tell me. What do you remember? Nick: You sure you want to know? Kayla: Yes. [SCENE_BREAK] Jennifer: Frankie, I know Jack does not have a lot of time left. His only reason for coming back here was to say goodbye. Frankie: I also know it's not that simple. Him being here alive -- it's -- it's had to reopen the emotions you've been working so hard to move on from. I'm sorry. I've got to ask. What does all this mean for us? Jennifer: What do you want it to mean for us? [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: I told you already, Lucas. I want to elope because I don't want to deal with the stress of a big wedding. Lucas: Well, you're forgetting I've seen you like this before too many times. Austin: What are you getting at? Sami: Austin, don't pay any attention to him. Lucas: No, pay attention. Something's going on. I can see it in your eyes. Look, man, the only reason why she's so anxious to marry you is because she's done something. She's done something wrong, all right? Something she's not proud of. I know her. And as soon as you find out what that is, you're gonna kick her to the curb for good. Isn't that right, Sami? [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: I'm glad you're here. Patrick: Well, I'm glad you're glad. Hope: No, I'm serious. We need to talk about our future. Patrick: Well, that does sound serious. [SCENE_BREAK] Shawn D.: Mom -- Mom, I got Aunt Maggie's message. I heard you fainted at church. What happened? Are you okay? Hope: Sweetie, I'm just a little tired -- nothing for you to worry about.. I'm okay. Shawn D.: I have a pretty good idea what happened here. This is all your fault. [SCENE_BREAK] Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of our Lives. [SCENE_BREAK] Mimi: Shawn, are you sure you want to do this right now? Bo: Mimi, it's okay. Shawn D.: Mom, listen, Dad and I are gonna go outside and talk. Everything's fine. Bo: Shawn, your mother isn't feeling well. She doesn't need any more stress right now. Shawn D.: No kidding, so why don't you leave her the hell alone? [SCENE_BREAK] Jack: [Breathing heavily] [Knock on door] Abby: Dad, there's someone here to see you. Jack: Yeah. Is that my little boy? Abby: Are you sure it's not too much for you? Jack: Absolutely not. Abby: Go see daddy. Jack: Hey. Hey, there. Hey, there, little fella. How are ya? Abby: J.J., who's this? Jack: J.J., do you remember me? It's me. I'm your daddy. That's right. I think he said it. That's right. I'm your daddy. And I missed you so much. I missed you and your beautiful sister. Look at this beautiful face and your beautiful head. I wanted this more than anything. This is a dream come true. Thank you for a dream come true. [SCENE_BREAK] Frankie: What I want -- what I've always wanted is for you to be happy. Jennifer: I knew that you would say something wonderful like that. Frankie: Jen, I know how much you love Jack. And now that he's back, if you want to be with him, I won't stand in your way. Jennifer: [Exhales sharply] Frankie: What? Hey, come on. Don't cry. Jennifer: I am so sorry. I have been so insensitive to you this whole day. Frankie: No, no, no, no. None of this is your fault. Jennifer: Frankie, the shock -- the shock of seeing Jack in that church today -- and I feel like all I've been doing is worrying about him. Frankie: Well, that's okay. Look, don't worry about me. Jennifer: I do worry about you. Jack is the one who pleaded with you and encouraged you to take care of me, to take care of our children. And you have done that so willingly, so lovingly. So, of course you would question what I would want because Jack came back. But I want you to know, I am telling you, when I stood on that altar today and I exchanged my vows to you, I meant -- I meant every word I said to you. I want to love you, and I want to cherish you for the rest of my life. Frankie: Jen -- Jennifer: No, don't say anything. Don't say a word. I am your wife. I am.. [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: I can tell you what I remember, but... [Sighs] It just comes back in quick flashes. You know, it's nothing. Kayla: No, no, it is something. Please, just tell me what you remember. Nick: Okay. The very first memory I have was waking up in this motel room -- this dirty motel room. I was dizzy. I was disoriented. I had this, like, hangover, but it wasn't like a hangover. It was -- man, I'd never felt like that before. I was sick. I didn't know where I was. I didn't know who I was. Kayla: Oh, my God. You must have been terrified. Nick: I knew I'd been through something pretty rough, but I just had no idea what it was. But I knew I was damn lucky to be alive. [SCENE_BREAK] Lucas: Look, man, Sami has got a closetful of wedding dresses, each one of them with their own little story behind them. What happened last time she wanted to elope and take you to Vegas? She did that because she did something wrong. She was hiding something. Come on, man. That's exactly what she did to me. That's exactly what she did to Brandon. She was hiding something. Look, Sami wants to get married more than life itself. She'd give her right arm for it. If she's willing to give that up, there's got to be a perfectly good reason. She's up to something, I'm telling you. She would love to get married. She would love to get married, but if she's gonna give that up, if she's gonna change her mind about that, it's only because she knows you're gonna change your mind as soon as you find out what she's done. Austin: What has she done? You have no idea. Lucas: No. Austin: You have no idea. So, what's all this about? This isn't fair to me, to Sami, and to everybody else. So, whatever your issues are with her, don't make them mine.. Lucas: Look, come on. After everything you've been through with Sami, you don't believe this? You don't believe that she's hiding something -- something major? Austin: No, I don't. I can't. Lucas: Fine, I guess I just have to prove it, don't I? Lexie, this is Lucas Roberts. Listen, I need you to come down to Sami's apartment for a while. Yeah, yeah, there's something I'd like to clear up. [SCENE_BREAK] Jack: So, any words of wisdom for the old man? Abby: I don't think he knows too many words yet, Dad. Jack: Oh, I think I heard him say daddy. I could have sworn I heard him. Abby: It's because Mom and I show him your picture all the time. Jack: Well, thanks for that. The check's in the mail. I just wish I had more time with the two of you. Abby: Dad, I'm sorry, but I refuse to accept that you're dying. Jack: Abigail, we've talked about this. Abby: Look, I'm gonna try hard to educate myself about your disease. Jack: Abigail, I appreciate that. I do, but your mother and I -- we did all the research we could. I don't think there's anything new. Abby: But there's amazing websites on the internet where people share information about lots of treatments for different diseases. Look, if it turns out that there is no cure for what you've got, I'll hate it, but I have to accept it. In the meantime, I don't want to waste a moment we have together. You have to do the same, okay? Jack: I'm all for that, right? Abby: 'Cause I know why you're here. Jack: You do? Abby: God heard my prayers. He's the one who sent you home. Jack: Yeah. [SCENE_BREAK] Jennifer: Frankie, I have to -- I have to talk to you about one more thing. Frankie: Okay, I'm listening. Jennifer: I know this isn't gonna come as a huge surprise to you, but I feel this huge responsibility toward Jack. I mean, I love him. He's the father of my children. Frankie: Of course. Jennifer: And you know, the next few days or, I don't know, few weeks are gonna be really hard for all of us. And I really need to be there for him. Frankie: Absolutely. I understand. If there's anything I can do to help.... Jennifer: Oh, please. You've already helped by being the most caring man that I know. But what I need to ask you is -- and be honest with me -- Frankie: Mm-hmm. Jennifer: Is it gonna be really hard for you to feel second to Jack through this whole situation? [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: Could you do me a favor, please? Could you go check on them? The two of them have terrible tempers. I just want to make sure they aren't killing each other. Mimi: Yeah, sure. Hope: Thanks. Mimi: And feel better. Hope: Thank you. Thanks, Philip, Belle. [SCENE_BREAK] Patrick: So, you were saying? Hope: What were you and Bo talking about earlier when Lexie was examining me? Patrick: What do we ever talk about? You. Uh, Bo told me something, but I'd like to hear it from you. Hope: What did he say? Patrick: He said the two of you were getting back together. Is that true? [SCENE_BREAK] Bo: I'm not leaving your mother alone. Shawn D.: So, you're gonna hurt her over and over again? Mimi: They're not yelling... Belle: Yet. Shawn D.: I'm not understanding your thinking. Bo: Well, maybe when you've been married for more than a couple of weeks, you'll start to understand. Shawn D.: So, what is this? You're screwing up your marriage and now you want to be a smartass about mine? Bo: That is not what -- Shawn, all marriages have their ups and downs. You have a little problem. You don't go off to the divorce court. Shawn D.: Yes, Dad, I understand that. You've been drumming that into me since the time I was a child -- how important it is to be honest, especially with the people that you love. And here you are lying to Mom over and over again. Bo: Listen to me. The night your little brother was hit, I hated lying to your mom. His death almost destroyed her, and I knew she needed me for support. And if she found out what had happened, she'd push me away. Shawn D.: Of course she was gonna find out what happened. I mean, you betrayed her by letting Chelsea borrow your car and get behind the wheel when she never had any business driving. Bo: You're right, and that is a mistake I'll always regret. Shawn D.: And then you let Billie take the fall for it. Bo: That wasn't my idea. Shawn D.: You went along with it. And then Patrick finds this video that incriminates Chelsea being the hit-and-run driver, and then the two of you just go ahead and you blame him. Bo: It was my responsibility to tell my wife the truth when I knew she was strong enough to hear it. Shawn D.: If that video didn't show up, you weren't gonna tell Mom, and you know it. And then what do you do? You go and you steal that video so Chelsea doesn't have to go to jail. I mean, it's just another one of a long list of betrayals. Bo: I had nothing to do with the disappearance of that video. Shawn D.: Dad, I don't believe that, and no one else does either. Bo: Well, believe this -- I love your mother, and I'm gonna do everything I can to get her back. Shawn D.: She doesn't want you back. I mean, we do not trust you, Dad. I hate what you have done to me, to my mother -- our entire family. Bo: I hate what has happened, too, Shawn. And it's good that you're so protective of your mom. But I have lost my son, and there's a very good chance that I might lose the woman I've loved all of my life. I'm going through hell right now, Shawn. You might try to understand. Shawn D.: I do understand. I know exactly what it feels like to lose the love of your life. Believe me, I know how that feels. So, why don't you take some of your own advice and get on with your life without us? Philip: No, Belle, stop. You're probably the last person she wants to talk to right now. You bastard. You're still in love with my wife. [SCENE_BREAK] Kayla: Steve, tell me more of what you remember. Nick: Listen, like I said, before I woke up in that motel room, everything is a blank. Kayla: Well, then tell me what happened after you left the motel room. Where did you go? I have no idea how I wound up in that place. I went back inside, and I decided to take a look around. I found a wallet. It had money in it -- like 500 bucks. The only other thing there was a photo I.D. It said my name was Nick Stockton. I had no memories. Nothing looked familiar. So, I did the only thing I could do. Kayla: Which was? Nick: I went to the address on the I.D. I took a bus. It was in a real run- down section of town. Kayla: What town? Nick: Cincinnati. Kayla: Cincinnati? Nick: Yeah. Let me tell you, this dump made the motel room look upscale. Kayla: Was anyone living there? Nick: No, the house was abandoned -- at least, I thought it was. Kayla: What do you mean by that? Nick: Someone ambushed me. Kayla: What happened next? [SCENE_BREAK] Lucas: Well, being a doctor, I'm sure Lexie will check her messages soon.. Sami: I thought you were talking to her just now. Lucas: No, I got her machine, which I guess gives you a little reprieve, doesn't it? But it won't last that long. As much as Lexie hates you, I'm sure she'll be over here as soon as she gets the message. Austin: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. What does Lexie have to do with this? Lucas: Well... [SCENE_BREAK] Lexie: After blackmailing me all these weeks, you told Abe about my affair with Tek with that anonymous note. Sami: No, no, I didn't write the note, okay, Lexie? I swear to God. I would never do something like that. I promise. You have to believe me. Lexie: Believe you, Sami? Come on. I know you've taken some sort of perverse pleasure out of ruining my life. Well, now it's my turn to ruin yours. Now that you've told Abe about my affair, there's nothing left for you to threaten me with or blackmail me with anymore, is there? So, it's your turn to suffer. Get ready to lose that bright, happy future you have planned for yourself with Austin. Payback's a bitch, isn't it? [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: I know exactly what is going on in Lucas' little mind. I told you all that I spoke to Lexie after the ceremony. And so, obviously, Lucas is jumping to the wrong conclusion, as usual. Austin: What was it about? Were the two of you fighting? Sami: You could say that. Austin: About what? Sami: About her cheating on Abe, obviously. Austin: That's all it was about? Sami: Yeah. What, you believe me, don't you? Austin: Well, why wouldn't I? Sami: You know, Austin, I'm so lucky to have you. You believed in me when no one else would. You knew that I hadn't killed Franco, and no one else believed that. And I haven't always deserved your trust. Thank you. [SCENE_BREAK] Mimi: [Crying] Shawn D.: I know exactly what it feels like to lose the love of your life. Philip: I don't believe this. Did you know? Belle: No, Philip, wait. Philip: I said did you know? Just say it. Have you known all this time that he's been in love with you? Belle: Honey, he is upset. He is just lashing out. It's probably not even true. Philip: Did you hear what he just said? Belle: Yes, he said that he knows how it feels to lose someone that he loved. Philip: No, no, not someone. He didn't say "someone." He said the love of his life. Belle: Okay, so, Shawn and I used to love each other. Philip: He didn't say "used to." It wasn't past tense, and it wasn't just what he said. It was the way he said it. He was pretty passionate. Belle: Why are you making such a big deal out of this? Philip: 'Cause you are my wife, and he's supposed to be in love with Mimi, not you. Belle: I am so committed to our marriage, and I'm sure that Shawn's committed to his. Philip: I'm sure you are, but I'm not. And judging by the way she just ran out of here, neither is Mimi. [SCENE_BREAK] Shawn D.: Do you still love Mom? Bo: You know I do. Shawn D.: Then why did you turn your back on her when she needed you the most? Bo: I didn't, Shawn. Shawn D.: Don't act like this is mom's fault. You kept choosing Billie and Chelsea over Mom and Zack time and time again. Is it any wonder that she doesn't want you back? You know, the only thing that has come from this is it has proven how strong Mom is, and I am incredibly proud of her. Because if she can get through the death of her son without her husband there, she can get through anything. Bo: She didn't have to go through this alone. I tried to be there for her. She didn't want me. Shawn D.: Yeah, of course. It was a little too late, don't you think? I just hope Mom finds someone to love her the way that she deserves to be loved. Hell, maybe she already has. Bo: What the hell's that mean? Shawn D.: Well, haven't you heard that Patrick's been there for her since you went awol? [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: Make love to me, Patrick. [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: Hey. Patrick: Uh... Hope: Patrick? Patrick: Yeah. Hope: What were you thinking about? Patrick: I, uh, was thinking about us, about that wonderful night we spent together on the island. I, uh...was wondering if it meant as much to you as it did to me. [SCENE_BREAK] Frankie: I know how much you need to be with Jack, and he needs you right now. Jennifer: Yeah, thank you for being so understanding about all of this, Frankie. Frankie: Not really. It's -- you know how I feel about Jack. I think he's... he's amazing. And I hate what's happening to him. Jennifer: I do, too. Frankie: This is your family we're talking about. They're gonna need your love and support like never before. And if you -- if you need anything -- anything at all, I'm here. You know that, right? [SCENE_BREAK] Jack: I think he's seen enough of me. Abby: You know what, Dad? I think he's just tired. I'm gonna go put him in his crib. Jack: All right. Big sister knows best, right? I'll see you in the morning, champ. [Exhales sharply] [Inhales deeply] [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: I don't know what happened next. After I walked out of that house, the next thing I remember was waking up in a hospital with a bunch of bluecoats standing over me. Guy: You're lucky one of your neighbors found you and called 911. Nick: Neighbors? Guy: He wasn't too sure how long you were laying on the lawn. That's a nasty gash on your forehead. It looks like you were mugged. You still had your wallet, but any money was gone. So, you don't remember seeing anyone or arguing with anybody? Nick: I told them I couldn't remember anything -- who I was, where I came from. They asked me a bunch more questions I couldn't answer, and then they left. That was it. Kayla: And there you were, all alone in a strange hospital? Nick: I had no idea who I was, what kind of work I did. I had one eye, man. I mean, where'd that come from? [Sighs] After a while, I just stopped tormenting myself and tried to put together some kind of life for myself. Kayla: I don't know how you did it. I can't imagine how confusing and terrifying it must have been. Nick: The people at the hospital were good to me. You know, I didn't have any money, but they helped me. They patched me up, and they treated me with respect. So, I decided the only way I could repay them was to, you know, go to work there, try to help some more people. Kayla: So you got a job at the hospital. Nick: It was volunteer work at first, but then it turned into a paying gig. The staff at the hospital got me a place to live. That's where I've been ever since. [SCENE_BREAK] Sami: Thank you for believing in me. Lucas: Yeah, Austin may believe you, but I'm not buying it. Sami: Well, that's no surprise to me, Lucas, given that you fell for your mother's story about me cheating on you with Brandon. You always want to believe the worst in me, and you don't know me at all. Lucas: I know you better than you think I know you. Remember when we were trapped in that room that night at Dune when the police raided the place? You practically admitted that you and Lexie had something on each other. Sami: What? You misunderstood my words. Lucas: No, I didn't. I didn't at all. You were talking about her affair with Tek, right? I mean, you knew about it before anyone else. My question is, what does she have on you? What does she have on you that's making you so damn nervous? Carrie: Is this true, Sami? I know that you and lexie have never gotten along. Sami: Yeah, but Lucas is twisting my words around. Lucas: No, I'm not. Look, you've done something wrong, all right? Why don't you just fess up to it? I mean, Austin's a great guy. Maybe he'll find it in his heart to forgive you if you're honest with him. Sami: What? Lucas: Sami, it's been proven over and over again that when you screw up, you don't lie about it, all right? You fess up. You ask for forgiveness. You ask people to forgive you. If you keep lying about it, it just makes the situation worse. Come on. Tell us. What does she have on you? Fess up. Austin: Okay, okay, that's it. That's it, man. Look, listen to me. I can't stand to listen to this anymore, all right? Look, Sami says she didn't do anything wrong. I chose to believe her. If you can't, that's your problem. Now go. [SCENE_BREAK] Bo: Shawn, I'm not perfect. But I've always tried to do what was best for you boys and your mom. And, yeah, I've made my share of mistakes. But Zack was my son, and no one loved that little boy more than me. And since his death, I've been out of my mind with grief and guilt and -- Chelsea is my daughter, too. What I'm trying to say is I love my family -- all of you. Shawn D.: Some more than others. Bo: Yeah, you got that right. I love you and your mom and Zack because you're the family that I have wanted and loved my whole life. And Chelsea -- she needs her parents' support and love, and I've got a hell of a lot to make up to her. Shawn D.: No. No, Dad. You don't have anything to make up for. She does, not that she could, not that she would even try, and not that you would make her. You know, when I got in trouble with the law, you wanted me to pay the price. I didn't necessarily agree with that at the time, but now I understand. And you were right. You were. And now all you want to do is protect Chelsea and -- no, Dad, you have always told me that actions speak louder than words. Well, your actions here to Mom and to me and to Zack speak very loudly, and they are not of love. Bo: You don't understand the horrible position -- my daughter killed my son. And I had to help my wife make it through -- Chelsea needed me, too. Shawn D.: So, what does that mean? You turn your back on the rest of your family? Bo: No. I don't know what else to say, Shawn. I mean, maybe with time, you'll understand. Shawn D.: Well, I'm sorry, Dad, but I really don't think I have that in me. I don't want to have anything to do with you ever again. Now, I think that we've said what we need to say. So, I'll just leave it at that. Bo: No, no. Living my life without you and your mom -- no, I will not accept that. Shawn D.: Well, I think it's too late for anything else. Why don't you tell Mom I'll be right back? I have to go find Mimi. Do you guys know -- thanks. [SCENE_BREAK] Belle: Yeah. It is awful what's happening to this family. Did you see the look on his face? Philip: It's gonna get a lot worse, you know. Belle: Why? What do you mean? Philip: What I mean is, Mimi's gonna leave him. She is. After what he just said, it's pretty obvious that he's still in love with you. So, what I want to know is, when she breaks it off with him and he inevitably comes crawling back to you, begging you to be with him, what are you gonna do? [SCENE_BREAK] Shawn D.: Mimi, what is wrong? Mimi: You want Belle, you can have her. Shawn D.: What? Mimi: I want a divorce. [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: That night meant a lot to me, too. [SCENE_BREAK] Bo: Hey. Feeling any better? Hope: Yeah, I feel much better. I'm sure Lexie will be by any minute with my test results, hopefully. Bo: Yeah. [SCENE_BREAK] Dr. Stuart: Excuse me, Mrs. Brady? Hope: Yes. Dr. Stuart: I'm Dr. Stuart. Hope: Oh, nice to meet you. Dr. Stuart: Dr. Carver was called away on an emergency, and she asked me to take a look at your test results when they came in. Is now okay? Hope: Yeah, please. Dr. Stuart: All right, well, you'll be glad to know there's nothing wrong with you. Hope: Good. I wasn't too worried. I've just been under a tremendous amount of stress, plus I haven't had very much appetite. Dr. Stuart: That's understandable. Wooziness, fatigue, appetite changes -- they're all normal signs associated with pregnancy. [SCENE_BREAK] Kayla: Jack... Abby: Dad, what are you doing? You're not supposed to be out of your bed.. Jennifer: Jack, you need to go back upstairs right now. Jack: No, I'm leaving, Jennifer. Jennifer: You're not leaving. You're gonna go back upstairs so we can take care of you. Nick: Where the hell do you think you're going, anyway? Jack: Where we're going. You're taking me back to the hospice. I'm going back there to die. Nick: [Scoffs] [SCENE_BREAK] Carrie: We're leaving, Austin. Good night, you two. Please. Lucas: All right, all right. Carrie: Come on. Lucas: Let's go. All right. Wait. Wait a minute. One more thing, all right? Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I really didn't. I've just been lied to too many times by Sami -- will and I both. We're sick of it. We don't want to get burned again. Carrie: Lucas, come on. [SCENE_BREAK] Lexie: Oh, Carrie. Hi. Carrie: Lexie. Lexie: Lucas, I got your message. Lucas: Yeah. Lexie: Austin. Uh...Sami. Great. I'm glad you're all here. I've been waiting a long time for this. Carrie: For what? Lexie: It looked you were about to leave, but, please, stay. You'll want to hear what I have to say. [SCENE_BREAK] Jack: What kind of man would I be to stick around for that? Frankie: What kind of man would you be if you don't? [SCENE_BREAK] Nick: You're not my wife, not anymore. [SCENE_BREAK] Lexie: Are you going to tell everyone what you did or shall I? [SCENE_BREAK] Hope: What if this baby isn't yours? Bo: Then Lockhart's a dead man. [SCENE_BREAK] Patrick: Can I -- Billie: Bo! Bo! Bo! No! Hope: Stop it!
