No-Tell Motel - Leo and Dimitri talk about Gabi and their evasion from the law. He laments not being able to drop a column about this scandal. They read in the article about Rolf (they're still in Salem) and Leo thinks it will help them somehow. Rolf arrives. Dimitri humbly asks for help fleeing Salem, assuring Rolf that Megan will pay for everything. Rolf tells Dimitri that Megan's mad he lost his fortune, but will still help Dimitri. Not Leo. This appalls Dimitri, who stands firm that Leo must accompany him on the submarine. Dimitri will handle Megan. Rolf seems to accept this and leaves. Dimitri wonders if Leo can really give up Salem. Leo admits he'll miss the town, but it will be worth it.
Shin-Johnson-Whatever Apartment - Tripp has made Wendy tea. Wendy wants to let it steep since she's not going to work. She gets a bunch of weepy scenes and tries to put off calling her father. Tripp supports her. Later, she is speaking with her father (they do acknowledge it's the middle of the night in Hong Kong) but can't get the news out. Tripp takes the phone and drops the bomb. After terminating the call, he relays to Wendy Wei's reaction. Wendy cries.
Police Station - Jada tells Rafe about a false lead in the Leo/Dimitri case. There were also extra prints on the knife. (Li's.) But he was cooking per Wendy's statement.
Interrogation room - Stefan has brought Gabi something from Sweet Bits. She is sure she's going to prison and he's sure Belle is a good lawyer. Rafe comes in and tells her there's nothing exculpatory yet. Stefan keeps postulating, and also says Belle thinks they can get the case dropped as a personal vendetta.
DiMansion - EJ gloats over using his job as revenge. Belle arrives to exchange blusters with him. This goes on 20 minutes too long.
Interrogation Room - Belle arrives as Stefan is consoling Gabi. The forensics were disappointing. Stefan lays out a plan for normalcy, but Belle douses water on it because she thinks EJ will make a compelling case for no bail.
Murder Apartment - Jada arrives to ask Wendy about Li's emotional state while making dinner. Wendy accuses her of trying to clear Gabi. Jada just wants the killer brought to justice. She gets a call and has to leave. Later, Tripp makes Wendy more tea as she laments her career options. They get a text that Gabi's been denied bail. This makes Wendy happy, I guess.
Police Station - Stefan, Belle, and Gabi talk strategy if denied bail. EJ comes in gassing about the legal system. Stefan tries to punch EJ. Rafe keeps them apart. EJ leaves after telling Gabi "Good luck in Statesville." Rafe has to send her up to Statesville awaiting trial, but vows to keep working for her. They get a long-ish goodbye.
Private Area - Belle comes upon EJ and tells him she'll be appealing. He expected as much. Belle tells him that the war has just begun, stomps off.
Police Station - Gabi has a tearful phone call with Arianna. She will visit her as soon as this is all cleared up. Stefan tells her the transport is outside and Rafe is giving them a moment alone. They have a teary goodbye. Gabi can endure some time away because it won't be as tough as the 4 years without him. They love each other.
No-Tell Motel - Leo and Dimitri have packed. Dimitri gets a text that the submarine is waiting. They leave, but Jada's at the door. END
