Alex arrives home in Salem, and he's followed by Theresa (of course). She tells him they need to talk about what happened in Greece.
Brady meets Justin at the pub and gives him the briefcase. It's the only item recovered from the plane. They discuss having not opened it. Brady and Alex agreed Maggie should be the one to open it.
Vivian is in her office at Titan throwing stuff around saying "out with the old and in with the best." The phone rings and she tells whoever she's talking to "send him in." The him being Philip. She thanks him for coming. He asks what she wants? Now that she's running Titan, she needs a right hand man. He's her first and only choice for the position. Philip isn't impressed.
Sarah is rocking doll-in-blanket and telling her how she's so perfect. She flashes back to giving birth and Xander supporting her.
Xander meanwhile is in bed, also remembering Sarah giving birth and giving her the baby at the hospital. He bolts up in bed, causing Chloe to ask if he's okay and what's wrong?
Justin says Victor definitely met with his old friend in Greece. Brady says yes and something was weighing heavily on Victor. They discuss the interaction with Konstantin and the letter, etc. Brady tells Justin that Shane brought the briefcase to Theresa. Justin asks what she was doing there? Brady of course says that the little stalker followed him.
Alex and Theresa talking more about their night together in Greece. She tells him he's a pro at avoiding people after sleeping with them. She wants to be clear to him she doesn't think their night meant anything.
Xander says he was having a dream. Chloe thinks he's upset about Victor and Maggie. He says it was about Sarah. He says it was about her giving birth and him realizing something.
Maggie is now in the room with Sarah asking about her precious granddaughter, who is sound asleep. Maggie thinks Sarah could use sleep too. Sarah says she can't wait to go to the mansion and crawl into a soft bed. Maggie kisses her forehead and tries to hide what's going on. Sarah calls her on it. Maggie doesn't want to tell her, but Sarah pulls it out of her. She says it's a big problem and her name is Vivian Alamain.
Philip asks why she'd ever think he'd want to work for her? Vivian says I carried you in my womb for 9 months. Philip asks if she thinks that means he owes her? She says of course not. She just felt so close to him and if he takes this job, she could feel that way again. Please Philip, she begs, come back to Titan. You belong here. Philip says "hard pass", he won't come back to Titan. She says it's what your father would have wanted.
Philip says he doesn't know about that, but he does know what his father wouldn't have wanted, what would have made Victor strangle the life out of her. And that's knowing that Vivian had Maggie ousted from the company and thrown out of her home. Philip says so you need to bring her back to Titan and give the mansion back to her. Will you do that for me? And to honor my father's memory? Vivian replies yes, of course I will, Philip, when hell freezes over.
Sarah and Maggie discuss the Vivian/Victor marriage news. Everything has gone to that miserable shrew. Sarah is so sorry, she knows that isn't what Victor would have wanted. Maggie tells her she is not giving up and they've started their counter initiative. They being Alex, Brady and Maggie.
Justin is surprised Theresa followed Brady to Greece (Why?!) Brady tells him she said Alex invited her, but that was a lie. Brady tells Justin about his talk with Theresa when she came to town. Brady says she started throwing herself at Alex. Jusin is concerned, he doesn't want that woman (Theresa) getting her hooks into his son.
Alex asks why he'd feel sorry for Theresa? She says because she was a wreck over Brady's rejection and insults. She was hurt and he comforted her. Alex says and you think I took advantage of you? No, she thinks she took advantage of him. (I think they can run away together and never be seen again at this point)
Chloe asks what he realized? He says in the dream, when he was helping Sarah and holding her hand, he looked over and Chloe was holding her other hand, and it just told him something about her. He was helping his ex wife at this vulnerable emotional time and his fiancee wasn't jealous in the least. She was just there for Sarah. That impressed him. Chloe says do you know what I saw? I saw you giving courage and strength to a woman who was scared out of her mind. I saw you put your history with her aside to make her feel safe as she brought her baby into the world. That impressed her. They love each other.
Theresa said she gave into temptation and used him to make herself feel better. He didn't mind. Brady was being a jerk, Alex says. More back and forth about their time together.
Brady says if Alex wants to date Theresa he won't stop in, but he did forewarn him that she's trouble. Justin doesn't like this at all. He doesn't like that she's using Alex to try to make Brady jealous. Justin says he's in therapy working to try to change his unhealthy patterns with women. Getting involved with Theresa Donovan isn't exactly healthy.
Philip tells Vivian that he knows in her twisted mind, she thinks of him as her son. But he's not, they are nothing to each other. So he wants her to do him a favor, never contact him again. Working at Titan is one of the reasons he ended up in a mental institution. No job is worth that. Vivian says she's not offering him just a job, she's offering him Chloe Lane (just how she plans to pull that off who knows).
Chloe and Xander are back in bed kissing. She says if they keep at it, they'll never finish planning their wedding. They need to get to the planning ASAP. Xander suggests getting married today.
Rex comes in to see Sarah. Sarah says Daddy's here, but she's sound asleep. Rex has an idea he wants them all to hear. He thinks Sarah and he should get married today. Sarah is being discharged anyway, so why not? Rex says they don't need a plan, they can get married at the pub. Maggie can be their witness. Sarah asks why Maggie isn't saying anything?
Maggie says she's gone on the record that it isn't right that Xander doesn't know he's the baby's father. Marriage is sacred, Maggie says, not something that should be thrown together at the last minute. She will not witness their sham of a wedding. She says goodbye to sweet Victoria and says she loves her, then leaves.
Vivian says did you hear what I said? Philip says he did but he won't dignify it with a response. She tells him to listen. She knows Chloe was the love of his life and if he takes the job, he has a chance to win her back. He says Chloe is engaged to Xander. Vivian shakes her head.
Chloe asks if he's serious he wants to get married today? He says why not? She says don't you want food, music, guests? All he wants is her. He doesn't have any friends, so who would he invite? Maggie has too much going on right now for him to ask her.
Justin asks Brady if he's sure he doesn't want to be there when Maggie opens the briefcase? Brady says she didn't get to say goodbye to her husband, and now Vivian has stolen everything that's leftover. He thinks Maggie deserves to have the moment to herself. Brady tells him not to worry about Alex, he's sure he has the Theresa situation under control.
Alex and Theresa continue blathering on about their hot night. She says she's trying to not be a mess anymore. Alex can relate to that he says. He's been trying to make some changes himself, but he has a long way to go. So does she. They almost kiss but are interrupted by her phone ringing. It's Brady asking her to the pub, it's important.
She tells Alex that Brady wants to see her. He tells her to not let Brady talk to her how he did the previous night. She says she won't and thanks Alex for being there for her. Now that they are back in Salem, maybe they can have that dinner. He says he would like that.
Theresa sits down across from Brady and says look if you called me over to apologize for being a jerk. Brady says it has nothing to do with me, it has to do with the fact that he got a call from Tate's school. He's been expelled. They tried to reach her. She says she didn't get a call. He doesn't know what Tate did, the headmaster wouldn't give him details over the phone. Theresa is shocked. Brady's going to go pick up their son. Theresa says I'm going with you. Brady says the hell you are.
