In Greece, Nicole flashes back to her convo threatening Victor's wrath at Xander. She is resolved to escape with Holly. She goes to the guard, but it's Eric. He won't leave without her because Brady asked him to although she at first refuses to leave with him. He updates her on Brady, she won't leave without Holly. The nanny brings the baby through the back, Eric speaks Greek with her (learned it during seminary), gets the baby, gives her to Nicole. Nicole refuses to leave with him. As they quibble, Xander comes out (Eric's back is to him). Xander plans to fire the nanny, sends Eric away with the baby.
Chad is in the Square--oh wait, it's Greece, talking about the amulet on the phone. Hope invites herself to join him. She tells him the trip is a bad idea, and André shows up in a letter jacket to agree. He scolds Chad for his foolish quest (he learned from Harold), suggests they not discuss this in front of the reinstated Hope (despite her "attempt to murder our father"). André drops the bomb about the amulet search, upsetting Chad, who learns Stefano passed on the offer. They quibble for 50 scenes. Then a Greek woman slaps André, wants him arrested. During their confrontation, Chad bolts. They resolve to work together to stop him.
Victor is on the phone, furious that Brady is getting sicker. Claire has come to visit, needs money to launch her music career. He wants to know how much, she's not sure. She's jealous that Victor favours Ciara. He points out that he doesn't play favourites (ahem) and doesn't give out blank checks until age 21. He wants to discuss her jealousy of Ciara. He admires Claire, who goes off about how perfect Ciara is. Ciara comes in, wants to move some of her trust money around to help people get access to clean drinking water, Claire flips. (Ed. Note: These scenes are truly cringe-worthy.) Later, Ciara is telling Victor how she's jealous of Claire. She refuses to give up boyfriend Wyatt's last name (lest Victor sick his detectives on him).
Earlier at the Pub, Ciara and Wyatt were on a date and Theo had entered. Ciara got a call and Theo watched Wyatt pay the bill (by taking money from Ciara's backpack, with her permission). Theo confronted him, got schooled; Ciara excused Wyatt to lay into Theo. Ciara announced that she and Wyatt are now exclusive. Theo flashed back to talking with Wyatt as they put their scheme into motion.
Later in the Square, Theo runs into Claire, who is happy to see him. Theo says Wyatt's out for Ciara's money, Claire calls him out on his obsession. Their separate and non-parallel jealousies drive them apart. He returns to the Pub, where he apologises to Wyatt. Wyatt reveals he knows Ciara's loaded (which Theo did not tell him), just as Ciara comes in to witness the spat. Things cool down, and we learn Ciara is writing a paper for Wyatt. Ciara goes over to a table, Theo tells Wyatt it's time to call it off.
Chad meets with a young Greek gent with a broken arm and they discuss their exchange. Later, Hope and André have caught up with Chad, who claims the deal is off. Meanwhile someone touches the amulet with his/her right hand.
Eric has placed Holly on the plane, heads back for Nicole; instructs the pilot to wait 24 hours, then leave if he's not back. Meanwhile Xander taunts Nicole, who wants to check on Holly, but is forced to have a drink with him. He reviews her past and theirs. He smarms; she charms. She gives him a massage and he falls asleep. He wakes up as she tries to steal his keys. He gets rough with her. Eric busts in and punches him out.

And maybe I'm older and get annoyed more easily now.
