Days of Our Lives

Lost a minute or 2 at start, but evidently Eve is doing her best to get Jack to blow the whistle at the mayoral debate. He resists, even talking of betraying JJ, while she tries to say JJ may be angry, will get over it, realize it was for his own good, & move on. Jack makes a crack about Eve doing the thinking, him doing her bidding, she changes her tactic, says o.k. They can go to debate, and he can say something if he decides he wants to.
Meanwhile, JJ & Haley are hot and heavy on the sofa, Jen is knocking at the door. He puts his shirt back on, answers, she has brought pics from wedding, will leave them with JJ, mentioning hosting the mayoral debate tonight. She leaves, JJ & Haley talk of perhaps resuming where they left off after the debate.
Hope & Ben at the cop shop, he wanting to talk to his sis, but she has already been transferred. Ben is worried, wonder what she said, Hope fills him in (off camera) on how she purposely killed their mom. Ben is shocked, what made her snap? They talk over it all, Ben beats himself up over how he was ready to kill his own sister. Hope actually defends him, he was saving Ciara, protecting her. He figures Ciara was already saved, but he was holding that syringe, Ciara was screaming, knew he was going to use it, so did Jordan. Again, Hope talks of how he saved Ciara, thanks him, lists all the things she thought he did, was convinced he did, but doesn't think so any more. She is so grateful, is so sorry, truly, for all she put him through, isn't going to press charges for his escaping, etc. He is free to go...he leaves.
Abe talks with Sheila, who is disappointed he is not wearing the shoes she bought him. She backs Abe, even if they don't always see eye to eye, as Abe notes they both really want the same thing. Along comes Trask, sarcasm dripping, as she is so sure she will best him tonight. Eve & Jack arrive, Jen is surprised, Eve makes up some nasty reply. Jen starts, intros herself as moderator, Eve is blathering away to Jack, Jen mentions the audience being quiet so they can all hear the candidates. Both make opening statements, Melinda goes on the attack immediately, citing how crime runs rampant in Salem, mentioning the case against Xander, solid, shooting Marlena at her wedding, caught on film, airtight case, but Xander waltzes into the mayor's office able to delete the footage.
Sheila jumps up, takes full responsibility, her fault, she resigns. Abe refuses to accept, to err is human, we all make mistakes. Melinda mentions members of Mexican drug cartel being in town, Eve figures Jack is not taking advantage, jumps up, wanting to know where Trask stands on illegal immigration. Abe notes that is a federal issue, Eve wants Melinda's stance, she is avoiding, Jack jumps up, pins her down, demanding just a yes or no answer. She says yes, against it, he drops the bombshell, about her own sister being and illegal immigrant and being right here in town now. Haley & JJ are watching on TV, she is shocked JJ must have told his dad. Melinda's jaw has dropped, is at a loss for something to say.
In her hospital room, Ciara, Tripp & Claire are talking of Jordan, figuring she is probably the one who set the fire. Claire says no, wasn't her, was me, o.k. I did it. Replay of Friday's final scene where Claire enters the cabin, spies the sleeping Ciara, picks up the lighter, flicks it to a flame. The scene shifts as Claire tells her tale to an angry Tripp, disbelieving Ciara. She says her computer pinged Ciara's location, must have turned on her phone. She rushes out to the cabin, goes in, intending to save Ciara, be the hero. However, she just began remembering how Ciara always wanted or took everything Claire had. The Bella contest, she did not even care about it, but Claire did, so Ciara entered. Theo, who Claire loved, but he always took Ciara's side. She reminds Tripp that she had kissed him that day, and he told her he only really wants Ciara.
So, yes, she started the fire, figured she would get Ciara out of her way for good. She leaves, is half way back to her car, stops, cannot believe what she has just done, she doesn't want that, turns and runs back to get Ciara out..........only Hope had already gotten her out. She sees them outside, goes back to her car, goes home, and when Julie called, pretended to not know and be so happy.
She shakes herself, as Tripp asks what is wrong with her, she has just been standing there, silent. Claire says, sorry, she was just thinking, (yep, that whole thing was all just in her mind) and agrees with them that Jordan probably set that first fire.
Tripp & Claire leave the room, Hope arrives, surprised that Ben is not there, she thought for sure he would have gone to see Ciara, after being freed. She mentions they had a nice talk.
Ben is sitting outside, alone, evidently his mind in a turmoil.
Jack & Eve stand, waiting for Melinda to reply to his accusation.
