Gabi comes out of the bathroom into her room wearing a robe. Vivian enters the room. Gabi tries to shoo her away. Vivian has decided that the only place for her to be, now that Maggie kicked her out of Titan, is by her son's side. At DiMera Enterprises.
Maggie is back in her office. The first thing she does is throw away Vivian's CEO name plaque and replace it with her own. Alex comes in behind her and asks what she's doing there?
Leo wants assistance at the hospital to get Dimitri's pillow fluffed (or some such other nonsense.) Kristen walks off the elevator and Leo says 'You."
Dimitri is in bed, slowly waking, Gwen's there when he opens his eyes. She says "Thank God, you're finally awake. I could kill you for worrying me like that."
Stefan is looking at the article about Dimitri's shooting and shaking his head. Jada comes in, the butler let her in. He says she's probably there with follow up questions. She says she has just one. Why did he lie to her?
Kristen says "hello Leo." Leo tells her to save it, he knows what she did. Gwen told him about her diabolical plan to kill his boyfriend. Kristen flashes back to confronting Dimitri with the gun. Kristen says she called it off. Leo doesn't buy it. More flashbacks. "I did not shoot Dimitri", Kristen swears to Leo. He doesn't believe her. He wants to know who it was.
Vivian tells Gabi she doesn't need to worry about business. Now that mother is there, she can just lie in bed and eat bon bons just like The Real Housewives of Salem. Gabi hates to disappoint her, but she will not take Gabi's job. Vivian offers Gabi some advice, not to underestimate her. Gabi says she's quaking in her boots. Vivan says she won't be leaving the DiMera mansion unless it's feet first. Gabi says that can be arranged. Vivian warns her to not get in her way.
Stefan says he and his wife were upstairs and repeat of the lie. Jada says she remembers his story. Dimitri's prints were on the gun along with Kristen's. Stefan says great, mystery solved, Kristen must have shot him. Jada says except she didn't. The prints don't even matter because the bullet the doctors took out of Dimitri didn't match that gun at all.
Dimitri asks what happened? Gwen explains he was shot. She lets him know that she knows about his lying ways and his affair with Leo. He says it was a despicable thing to do and he's so sorry. Gwen says she's sorry too, because sorry isn't going to cut it. She pulls out a scalpel and says this will.
Alex didn't expect to see Maggie there. Maggie says Vivian certainly makes sure to mark her territory, doesn't she? They discuss how fun it is when she resurfaces. The CEO job comes up. Alex wishes he could have watched Maggie kick Vivian to the curb. Victor left Alex in charge of Titan, he says, per the will. Maggie is surprised he brought Victor's will. Alex said he brought it in case he needed proof he was the new CEO.
Maggie says the will doesn't make him CEO. He reads it to her to prove he received controlling interest in the company which makes him CEO. Maggie argues that Victor spelled out his wishes before he passed and those were to make her CEO. Alex doesn't want to fight. He has considered his options carefully and he wants the job.
Stefan says "so Dimitri was shot with another gun?" Jada asks if that's how he wants to play this. She will get to the bottom of this and she will not hesitate to lock him up. Gabi comes in the room and says "You can't lock him up, he had nothing to do with this." Jada says oh really? Gabi then says the person who shot Dimitri was Vivian Alamain, my mother in law. Stefan is not happy.
Vivian is going through her purse, making sure she has what she's supposed to, lipstick, wallet. But oh, where's my gun?!
Jada says "Vivian shot Dimitri?" Gabi holds out a ziploc bag with the gun inside and says "with this." Stefan shakes his head.
Kristen doesn't know who shot Dimitri and tells Leo he's not in a position to judge anyone. Leo says the high horse Kristen is on is giving her the vapors. They both know she doesn't care about Gwen. Just the part of the inheritance she wants which she blackmailed him out of. Leo is going to check on his boyfriend.
Gwen is twisting the scalpel in her hands. Dimitri asks where she found that? Gwen says someone left it out on a tray. He seems scared of what her plans are. Gwen makes implications about harming him and ruining Leo's good times with him. (if you catch my drift). Dimitri is begging please, while Gwen keeps talking. Dimitri is hollering for help when Leo walks in wanting to know what she's doing?
Stefan asks what Gbi is doing? She says she's telling the truth and she'll always pick him. She won't let him go down for his out of control gun toting mother. Stefan says that's not fair. She may be out of control but she's not gun toting. Then Vivian comes in the room asking if anyone has seen her gun? Gabi does this shrug thing as if to say point made. That's pretty funny. While Stefan and Vivian are like "just great!"
Maggie says she understands that Alex's world has been turned upside down. He says that doesn't change the fact Titan is his birthright and he knows what he's entitled to. Maggie asks if this is payback? He says of course not. He's not taking the job for retaliation. He's doing it because Victor was his father and this is clearly what he wanted.
Vivian insists that Gabi can't give her gun to Jada as it's Vivian's property. Stefan tells his mother that she's not helping her case. Vivian says what case? Dimitri was threatening her son. She couldn't endure losing him again. It's not illegal to kill someone in self defense. Stefan tells Jada what his mother is trying to say is the truth. Dimitri was trying to kill him and Gabi and would have if Vivian did not intervene. That is why he had a hard time turning her in.
Gabi says yes and we want to press charges against Dimitri. Jada asks if they're willing to testify and they say absolutely. Jada tells Vivian that this might mitigate the attempted murder charge but she did lie to police and possessing a gun is a violation of her parole, so she will be speaking to Vivian's parole officer. Jada goes to leave. Vivian, Stefan and Gabi all glare at each other.
Marlena is on the phone with John telling him about Susan being alive. She's interrupted by Kate. Kate's sorry to barge in but Marlena's assistant said she was on a break. Marlena says it's fine. Did Kate hear about Susan? Kate did. Kate needs to talk to Marlena about Philip. He's fine, but Kate's not. He's leaving town with Chloe.
Leo tells Gwen to put down the scalpel. He's sorry she feels betrayed, but this is insane. Leo says it will destroy Gwen if she did it. He tries to talk her down by telling her she's not a violent person, and she's gone to extremes at times, but this is cruel and out of character for her. Because she's kind and decent. She's not the person he knows and loves. It's breaking his heart. She says he has no heart. He's not trying to make excuses. He messed up, and he's miserable a lot of the time.
Leo never meant to hurt her. It was his desperate need for love that caused him to betray her. Gwen says he was supposed to be her best friend, and Dimitri was supposed to be forever. They were supposed to grow old together. Leo wishes they'd told her the truth from the start, but he was hoping there was some way for all of them to get what they wanted. Gwen isn't willing to forgive either of them.
Maggie tells Alex that it did warm her heart that she could be there for him in Victor's absence. He's important to her, always has been, but seeing her husband in him, makes that closeness better. She doesn't believe Victor wanted him to be CEO. Alex will take it in front of the board if Maggie won't give up the job willingly.
Stefan asks why Gabi would give up his mother to the cops? Gabi tells Vivian she brought it on herself. Stefan says there is nothing he can do about it now. Vivian decides she has to leave town to evade the law. Gabi says Hallelujah. They are not impressed.
Kristen tells Gwen she promises she did not shoot Dimitri. Gwen says well who the hell did? Jada comes up and says Vivian Alamain. They wonder why Vivian would shoot Dimitri? Jada explains about Dimitri's attempt to kill Stefan. Jada's there to arrest Gwen's husband. Gwen says that is the best news she's heard all day.
Maggie is back in her office. The first thing she does is throw away Vivian's CEO name plaque and replace it with her own. Alex comes in behind her and asks what she's doing there?
