Replay of Chad entering Stefan0's office, checking around, jimmying open the drawer, pawing about in it, and finding the phone. Kate finds him and he shows her the phone. She tries to talk him out of his plan to use this to destroy Stefan0, fearing it will make him look irrational to the almighty board. He calls Lani.
Kayla returns to her office, no Abigail, no note, no glasses. Jennifer comes in, Kayla lets slip that Abby left before her tests, apologizes (thinking that Jen had been there with Abby) and stonewalls. A convenient phone call sends Kayla to a private area, Jennifer looks at her chart. Kayla catches her, Jennifer is worried about a brain tumor. Kayla gives her a minimum of information, no scolding, but does update her about Abby's vanishing. Jen calls Abby.
In the DiMansion study, Stefan0 leaves the secret passage as "Dr Laura" comes in. He demands she become "Gabby." "Dr Laura" refuses to cooperate until Stefan0 threatens to call the police. "Dr Laura" is mad at Stefan0 because "Gabby" is shattered. They go upstairs to end their stalemate. Later we see the end of the ham headache, and the arrival of "Gabby," who lays into Stefan0. He vows to protect her. "Gabby" is not happy that she's a coping mechanism. She plans to flee. Stefan0 warns her that "Dr Laura" will fight "Gabby" and resist these attempts. Bla bla bla. "Gabby" ignores the call from Jen, but listens to the message, alerting her that Abby's trying to get rid of her.
At the Pub, replay of Val upsetting JJ by objecting to his plan to marry her boyfriend's long-lost illegitimate daughter, with Lani coming in and interrupting. Even Abe starts to wonder why JJ is in such a rush. Lots of back and forth, nothing is really said, but Val does get some side-jabs in at Lani, who pleads with Val to let them (JJ/Lani) be happy. She claims she's thinking of her son and lays it on thick about her guilt in not telling her son's father. Again, no forward movement and Abe stops any chance of same by giving Lani the rattle for his first grandchild. Abe goes to get coffee, Lani sends JJ to fetch some tea. Lani tries to lay into Val, who stands strong about her concern for her grandchild. Lani points out that Eli made the choice to let JJ raise the baby, stay out of it. She gets a call from Chad, zips out to meet him at Stefan0's office.
Chad and Kate talk about Abby's mental state, her headaches and blackouts, which he seems to assume are related to grief, which will be allayed when the real killer is jailed. Later, they give Lani the phone, fib about how it was found, Kate confirms it was André's. Lani will tell Trask about this. Kate and Chad try to convince her not to, since Trask dined with Stefan0 on Valentine’s Day.
At the police room, Eli is talking via phone to Dr Evans, relaying messages from Gabi to Ari. Julie rushes in, having heard about Gabi's attempt to destroy evidence. Back and forth about Gabi's guilt. Eli doesn't want to hear it, says Gabi is similar to Julie. Rinse and repeat as she gasses on an on, and he threatens to choose Gabi if forced, missed you growing up, etc. And another rinse and repeat promise from Julie to hold it back with Gabi.
Back at the Pub, Val and Lani have run off to work. Abe and JJ are chatting, he's about to run off to study for his EMT exam. Abe apologizes to JJ for Lani's rude 'tude. Abe is thrilled and (here's a shocker) JJ's happy about the baby.
Once more at the Police Room, Val is talking to Eli about his decision to step back from the baby. He admits he told Lani that, but after his talk with Julie, he is rethinking it.
Outside Stefan0's bedroom, Chad (who still is the on-paper owner of the DiMansion) gives permission to Lani to search Stefan0's room. END
