Replay of Diana and Marlena running into each other in the Square. Marlena doesn't know her; Diana claims to know her from her radio show, which she listened to in Chicago. Diana invites Marlena for one drink, with the promise of no requests for advice; later, they are chatting about their kids (Marlena talks about having a difficult daughter) and she puts two and two together: her son is Matthew Cooper/Leo (for some reason this gets a flashback). This leads to the revelation that Will Horton is Marlena's grandson and that Will came to see her; Diana apologizes for the trouble Matthew's caused. Marlena wants to know what damaged Leo so that he is doing all these awful things. Diana refuses to throw her son under the bus.
At the Kmansion, Leo is pondering Adrienne's threat when Brady enters. He's moving back in; Brady knows him, Leo chats him up in a flirty way, but Brady doesn't want to be nice to the "creep" who almost cost his company "everything." They talk about Vivian and Brady burying her alive, and Leo admires Brady's muscles. Brady is not amused. Leo pushes with innuendo, Brady pushes back (verbally), Leo grabs him and kisses him as John walks in. What is wrong with him, Brady asks, Leo laughs it off. Eventually Leo figures out that John is the one who tracked his mother down. He gets bored, will fix a snack and go to bed; he tells Brady to drop by if he gets hungry. Brady gets compliments from John on his CEO job, and John worries about the confrontations with Eve, Chad, and Stefan; Chloe has been a support to him, Brady reports. John starts at this, but Brady says they're just friends; he frets about Leo's plans, tells John he hasn't met Leo's mother yet. John goes out to see him.
Chloe is talking to her mom on the phone, Doug and Julie are having date night, again, she's on her own. She enters the Club, Stefan is there on the beach chairs. Chloe forgot about Eli's private party; Stefan enjoys a mojito and tries to get her to sit down with him by flirting. She plans to ignore him, but he continues the banter. She relents for one drink if he'll leave her alone after that. Later, she is sorting mail as they drink; work is her oasis of peace and order since taking Holly in (Parker and Holly leaving toys around, etc.). They talk about parenting and Big Z laments the loss of Charlotte; then they talk business and she talks about what a great businessman her ex-husband Brady is. They talk about her love life, then she redirects to his. As they are talking, one of her packages is a bloody dagger. She flashes back to her Noodlecide.
At the police station, Hope leaves a message for Ciara, she and Ted talk about why she's not answering. Hope also calls Claire and learns Ciara's not been home. More speculation, Hope calls the airline, confirms the flight landed hours ago. More fretting and worry that Ciara could be with Ben; she resolves to find him now.
Replay of Ciara in her undisclosed location struggling and bound. Later, the mystery figure holding her plays messages and with some matches. While bound, Ciara flashes back to the fire. (There are about 50 scenes of mystery gloves and Ciara writhing.)
Hope has called Marlena to the station, introduces Ted (whom Marlena knows), recaps Ciara's being missing, needs to know where Ben is. Hope wants to know when Marlena saw Ben, and if he said anything about Ciara. She begs, Marlena blocks a bit, more begging.
Diana is in her hotel room, reading a news story on her tablet, about Sami shooting Marlena at the wedding, there's a knock. She peeks, then opens it. Hello, Roman, she says.
Ciara asks her unseen kidnapper, "Why are you doing this to me? Who are you?" END
