At the Hospital, Anne grabs Jeannie T, correcting her wardrobe before she goes into Tate’s room - Brady’s in there. Jeannie T wishes she’d not gotten rid of Melanie as Anne encourages her to use her goods to snag daddy. Anne points out that with Melanie gone, Brady will eventually need someone to “scratch his itch.” (Again speaking for the chorus.)
In Tate’s room, Brady tells Maggie he’ll never do anything with Jeannie T. He explains their binding agreement, intermediaries for custody transfer, etc. Maggie asks if he’s sure about this. He’s sure, he doesn’t want Tate exposed to his hatred for Jeannie T. Brady un-ironically says nothing will change his mind.
Rory (in the Park) calls JJ (sulking at the Horton House) telling him about a raging kegger replete with bodacious babes. JJ doesn’t want babes, just Paige. Jenn has overheard this, tells him to let her go. JJ reminds Jen that she took back Jack after numerous mistakes (eye roll), Jenn subtly hints that that was different, JJ realises what he did was worse. Jenn says that every person, every relationship is different...and it’s up to Paige to decide if she can live with what JJ did. He thanks her for never giving up on him before zipping off to do something.
At the Pub, Kayla and Paige are talking...but NOT about JJ/Eve...Paige needs a favour. She wants a letter of recommendation for a night shift job at a Yogurt shop, which will help with her expences. Refuses Kayla’s offer to work at the hospital. Kayla insists JJ will hardly ever be there, Paige doesn’t want JJ to have the opportunity to show up at her work, begging to be let back in to her life. She says she’s doing some online dating, checking out sites, Kayla cautions her that guys there aren’t honest. Paige rails about JJ some more.
At her apartment, Eve is Googling (yes, actually Googling, mentioned by name) Laura Horton, learns Marlena was her doctor. Later, she goes to the hospital, interrupts Jeannie T/Anne, Jeannie yells at her about visiting Tate. Sees Marlena and shoves them off.
Earlier, Marlena had been in her office, calling after Eric. She’d been trying to reach him, worried she was being a pest, and wondering if Daniel got ahold of Eric. Later, she calls Daniel (above) before Eve enters her office, asking to talk to her. Eve asks for advice on dealing with her daughter, to whom she did something terrible, admits Paige knows about it. Admits she knows Marlena couldn’t be her therapist because of Jeannie T, just wants an appointment to talk and get a referral. As Marlena is looking through her computer, Eve admires an “old” picture of Belle, laments losing Paige, gets into a hysterical coughing fit in order to get Marlena out of the room, uses the moment to look up Laura Horton on Doc’s computer.
At Serena’s hotel, Daniel is grasping Serena by the shoulders, she’s saying she loved Eric and this is all Nicole’s fault. He shoves past her (shades of EJ here), grabs the elephant statue, which he thinks has something to do with it. Recaps conversations, gets a call from Marlena, confirms he’s dealing with Serena, who then begs him to leave or she’ll call hotel security. He says forget security, let’s call the police. He has figured out that the elephants were used to smuggle things into the US, figures Nicole knows, calls Serena out on her lying, tells her he’ll find Eric and get the truth, let him know how Serena acted when the chips were down.
Xander, gun drawn, pursues Eric and Nicole, who are stuck in a storage room. Xander pushes open a door, but it’s the wrong one. He’s screaming that he’ll exterminate them, he should have finished her when he had the chance, etc. Nicole asks Eric why he showed up. He avoids the question, she assures him the room is hidden, they surmise Xander might give up in a few hours so they can escape. She presses the issue of what he’s doing here. Xander remains furious, as Navidad assures him that they MUST be in the building. They decide to use Nicole’s computer to track them, as well as to determine where they are. Meanwhile in the secret room, Eric has apologised to Nicole, explains how Xander & Serena were smuggling diamonds using artwork, like the elephant. He realises she’s not surprised, and she admits she’s known for weeks.
In the park clearing, Anne and Jeannie T are eating yogurt, Jeannie laments her scheme, which Melanie blabbed, to get rid of her rival. Anne continues to see the gravy train, Jeannie T claims she’s focused only on her son, admits she’s worried about being a mother, because she lost the time most moms get to prepare. Brady is in the shadows, eavesdropping, as Jeannie worries she might be a terrible mother. She might feed him too much, etc; she can’t rely on Kim, who’s mad about LA, or Eve, who “moves from one hot mess to the next.” Anne offers help, they’ll learn together, Jeannie (and Brady) look horrified, turns her down.
JJ and Paige run into each other in the Square, she accuses him of stalking her. He says he was going to the Yogurt Shop to look into a job, she accuses Kayla of telling him, rails that she’ll never believe another word he says. He tells her to keep the job, he’s done, as Bev watches from behind the trees. Paige tells Bev that JJ had sex with Eve, which broke them up.
In Nicole’s office, Xander and Navidad are going through Nicole’s computer when a beeping alerts Xander to Eric’s phone. He checks the messages, realises Serena blabbed; however, he thinks this is perfect. (See below, he texts Daniel pretending to be Nicole.)
Outside Eric’s apartment, Daniel is trying to get Eric’s attention, Serena is pursuing him, keeps her mouth shut or it’ll be “a disaster.” Daniel gets a text from “Nicole” (really Xander), claiming she’s driving to Chicago, phone almost dead, she’s at the Tower Hotel on Michigan Avenue. Daniel won’t let Serena go along; she wants to see him one more time, even if Eric doesn’t want to see her.
In the secret room, Nicole admits she didn’t know about the diamonds, but knew Xander & Serena were up to something and that it involved the elephant, she had been playing him, didn’t realise how dangerous he was. Eric wants to know why she didn’t say something to him or Daniel, Nicole didn’t want to be wrong again; Eric realises she didn’t think he’d believe her. Apologises for not believing her, realises she couldn’t come to him, and that his role in this inadvertently put her in the danger they’re in now. Tells her he’s so sorry. They’re holding hands, she tells him that his only mistake was being trusting, being his wonderful self; admits that she too was responsible for her sullied reputation, and how she couldn’t talk about her Serena hunch. It’s quiet, Eric thinks it’s a good sign Xander’s gone...Nicole thinks it’s safer if Xander can’t find them. Upstairs, Navidad has used Nicole’s computer to locate their hiding spot (using blueprints for the building).
In the Nursery, JeannieT is singing to Tate. Brady comes in, and she tries to leave, yells at him when he tries to play nice. She tells him to deal with her attorney; alone with Tate, he resolves to do what’s right for Tate, no matter how he feels.
At the hospital, Marlena receives a text from “Eric” (really Xander), saying he needs space and is fine.
JJ shows up at the kegger, gets some booze from Rory.
Eve is digging in the computer, Jen comes in to see Marlena, and asks what she’s doing.
In the Secret room, Eric agrees that they’ll be safer in this room, since Xander doesn’t know about it. Outside, Xander starts rattling the doorknob, demanding they open the door.
