Days of Our Lives

Vivian comes to visit Victor, having seen Maggie checking into the Salem Inn. Victor is just leaving Maggie a loving message, wanting her to come talk, he hangs up to have Vivian propose a business proposition. Victor is his usual insulting and snarky self, thank goodness, as Viv is proposing a merger between their companies. Victor cannot believe she thinks he would ever merge Titan with DiMera company, even though Viv talks how beneficial with her son & her. No way. So now, she thinks perhaps a personal relationship might be better, he reminds her he is a married man, she thinks not for long, calls Maggie a few choice names. Vic is not interested, so she gives him a private showing of what he is missing. He covers his eyes, crying out about his eyes. He orders her out before he throws her out by her hair. She leaves, figures he will be sorry.
Chad is knocking at Stefan's door, Gabby wants to open it, let him in, Stefan prevents her from doing so, reminding her that with Andre's murder, it would be very awkward, raise a lot of questions. Chad can hear voices, knocks again, Stefan opens, (has hidden Gabby/Abby in the closet, and they go round and round about whether someone was there (Stefan claims it was his mother on speaker phone), Chad's belief that Stefan did away with Andre, Stefan's denial, arguing, defending. Stefan finally tells him to search his room, feel free, opening the closet door where Gabby/Abby is hiding, pulling a drawer out of the desk, throwing the contents on the bed. Go ahead, feel free. Chad declines, commenting that he doesn't think anything Stefan wants to hide would be in his room, he leaves.
Gabby/Abby comes out of the closet, wants the urn lid, Stefan won't tell her where it is, she is leaving, he grabs her hand, wanting to know when he will see her again, he is intrigued by her. She says she will come again, when she can. Leaves.
Marlena has brought ice cream to visit with Claire, who doesn't take long before she is talking of knowing something horrible, wanting to tell, not sure, etc. She finally gets Gramma Marlena to promise not to tell, spills about Rafe cheating on Hope with Sami. Marlena asks how she knows, Claire says thru Ciara, Marlena asks what exactly Ciara said, since Claire doesn't really have any details, like when this happened, how Ciara found out......and now Claire admits she did not talk to Ciara, but......it's all here on the phone. She plays it, (we don't hear) but Marlena wonders why she taped the conversation. Claire admits she knew Ciara had a secret she did not want Claire to know, and claims she thought it was about her, or maybe Theo. She goes on about telling Hope, she only wants her to be happy. Marlena wonders if that is the real reason, if Claire is not trying to get back at Ciara for some reason, and also wonders how being told this would make Gramma Hope happy, while causing so much destruction.
At the hospital, Kayla is with Steve, letting him know that while the antidote is working, stopping his body from destroying itself, his vision has been damaged. John arrives, Kayla is pretty cool, goes to check the test results. John & Steve talk, Steve understands John did what he had to, what they were trained to do. John is sorry things are not progressing faster, Steve figures it will just take a bit longer. Kayla returns, wants John to leave, Steve wants him there, she tells him the poison damaged his cornea, his vision is not going to get better, will get worse. Doctor is looking into options, but outlook is dim. Steve takes it all pretty well, John very upset, is sorry, leaves. Kayla mutters she cannot even look at that man, Steve defends him, reminds Kayla they have been in tough situations before, and managed to get thru them, they will this time, too. As long as they do it together.
And over on the island, Hope is very excited and happy about the justice of the peace arriving, explains to Rafe, tells the justice where bathroom is to dry off. While he is gone, she goes on and on to Rafe about wanting this for just the two of them, he figures Julie will be so ticked, she got ordained especially just to marry them. (And let's all have a huge eye roll here – ORDAINED??? Is Julie now a pastor?) Hope figures they can tell everyone at the party tomorrow, no stress about it, they can really party. Rafe says o.k. , laughter, hugs, kisses, Justice returns. Hope has brought their rings, and the laza, all is well. Rafe drapes the laza around them both, talking of being together forever, Hope tells him how much she loves him, he is her partner, friend, lover, protector. (Actually, this all is really very nice) He starts out saying he has a confession, but no, not what we might think, it is that he has not prepared vows, but tells her how he feels about her, the family, their life together, woman of his dreams, etc. They put the rings on fingers, take turns reciting the marriage vows, and finally the Justice pronounces them husband and wife. Kisses. Thank the Justice, bid him adieu and be safe. (wonder is he has to operate the boat or snowmobile himself, or is there taxi or ferry service?)
John sits on the park bench, in tears, as Marlena rushes up, starting to say she thought bringing ice cream to Claire would..........then seeing him upset, asking what is it, what is wrong. His arm goes around her, he holds her, very upset.
Chad comes into their bedroom, finding Abby asleep on the bed. He wakes her, surprised she is napping again after sleeping so late this morning. She blames stress over all this Andre stuff. He leaves to get changed, she sits on the bed, looking a bit confused.
Claire ponders what she is going to do, looking at wedding invite and then her phone, remarking Hope needs to know, and at least they are not married yet.
Stefan is doing a Ewe search on line about split personalities, wants to see what is going on with Abby.
Rafe and Hope have champagne, fluted glasses, and toast each other. She is on Cloud 9, calling him husband, he wants to tell someone, even a stranger, they did it. She is joyous, repeating “we did it”, as he says it, too. They toast, and tenderly kiss, as a song plays in the background, with lyrics something like.....kissing you is like being in paradise.........

. I just do not see any chemistry between these 2. Official wedding should be fun with Claire knowing big secret.
