In the hospital (in Thomas' a waiting room), Abby sleeps, and is dreaming of Chad vowing to cut the DiMeras out of his life.
At the DiMansion, Chad has roused Stefano and André. He tells them Belle is on his side, he's pretending to cut out the DiMeras to win her trust, Belle opened up to him, but Belle knows nothing. He claims to be positive that Belle knows nothing, and isn't just protecting Sami. They should give up their pursuit of Sami via Belle. Later, Stefano and André are playing chess, André seems not to believe Chad's story, thinks they're closing in on Sami. Stefano just wants a graceful end game, sends André out, puts on opera.
At the hospital, by the nurses station, Belle is leaving, Philip has been waiting to make sure she's ok. She says she's fine, he calls her a liar. Both of her half-brothers (his choice of words) are fighting. She admits she's just coping, Philip offers to look after her. Later, he's brought her some water, offers to get food with her.
At the Johnson house, Patch recaps yesterday's surgical events to Kayla, is proud of her, but wants her to rest. They sit on the couch, he goes to get a snack for her. She falls asleep in the moment he's gone.
In her hotel, Ava looks through a pack of pictures of a baby, puts about three of them in an envelope.
At Hope's house, Rafe and Hope argue over her plan. Hope is grateful for Rafe's intercession and assistance, but Rafe is unmoved, begs her to stop. Later, she's looking over papers. Steve calls, says he needs to talk to her, something really bad happened. She says now's not a good time, hangs up on him. Asks Bo what she should do. Later Steve shows up at her door, says she needs to hear this. She sends him away again and wonders how she'll prove this.
At the townhouse, Chad arrives, wants to talk to Belle, who calls him a stalker. She's just picking up clothes for Marlena & John, who stayed at the hospital. Chad tries to offer sympathies, Belle's not buying. He admits to lying to her since Day 1. Later, Chad has filled in Belle, and she recaps it, he apologises for it, warns her that he's filled in his pops that she knows nothing, tells her not to trust anybody. He's about to leave when she questions his sincerity. He warns her that Sami stole a lot of money, and [Stef and André]'ll do anything to get it back. She seems upset (?) that he'll be out of her life, but he says he may have to pretend, and bother her a bit, as André is suspicious.
Rafe appears at the DiMansion. Rafe wants to talk to André and Stefano, André says not possible, but gives Rafe a few minutes. Rafe wants to ask about Malcolm's murder "last week," André cracks on about the serial killer, and how Salem PD "fails upwards." Etc. Rafe asks about Stefano's health, memory problems. This offends André, who thinks Rafe is fishing to see if they were trying to get the cure for memory problems. Informs Rafe his time is up.
At Hope's, Ciara bolts down the stairs and out the door, is having a panic attack, had another nightmare about her kidnapping. (The recent one.) Hope assures her she'll get the people responsible, this will never happen to her again. Later, Hope has tucked her in for a nap on the couch, digs a box out of the closet. She opens it with a key, and removes a gun, which she puts in her back pocket before leaving.
Ava is in the Square, looking at the pictures in her envelope, hacking up a lung. Steve spies her, comes up to her. She claims to have something stuck in her throat, he asks if she's had any other treatments, and she says she's part of a drug test now. Besides that, she's focusing on one last thing she needs to take care of, before she dies. She won't tell him what, thanks him for forgiving her. She leaves, stumbles against a table, dropping the envelope.
At the hospital, in the waiting room, Chad arrives, kisses Abby, explains how he played Stefano and André. They talk about how Thomas will get to come home today. The nurse brings Thomas in, Abby has her give Chad the baby.
Belle runs into Philip at Club TBD, she's picking up food for John & Marlena (the latter of whom texted that Brady & Eric are OK). He invites her to sit down. Fesses up about Sami's $500million theft from Stefano. Philip squeals with glee, Belle is serious, Stefano and John can't find Sami. Philip deduces Chad's part in the plot, Belle says Chad's turned on them. Philip wonders if Chad's playing her too. Belle's not sure, lets slip about the $250million in an account in her name. She plans to give it back to Stefano, then she's out of it. Philip thinks Stefano would redouble his efforts to recoup the other half if Belle did that, advises her to sit on the money, he'll protect her. She's not up for much of anything, reminds Philip to keep quiet, doesn't need a protector. Philip says his phone's always on if she needs him.
At the Horton House, Chad and Abby talk about the loss of Daniel, how everything's come back to him. He tells her that he needs to make Stefano & André think they're still in control. Later, they're snuggling on the couch, Thomas makes some noise, they leap at his basinet. He's okay; they laugh about being first-time parents. Chad feels guilty for feeling so happy with all the recent traumas, but is glad their son will grow up knowing his parents love him...and each other. Kiss.
Kayla wakes up, calls for Steve. He's in the Square, looking through the envelope Ava dropped. Later, he arrives home, Kayla's getting ready to leave. She already had a busy day, and it'll be busier now. Wonders where he was, he says he went to see Hope, and ran into Ava. Shows Kayla the pictures Ava dropped. They wonder whose baby this could be.
In her hotel room, Ava puts on music and dances around the room. She removes her robe for a shower, there's a big snake tattoo on her back.
Rafe goes to the police station, sits down and pulls out the iPad, sees an article about Daniel's death. Is visibly upset.
Hope barges into the DiMansion, demands André get Stefano down here NOW!!! André rises, staring her down.
