Brady threatens Eve to sign over her shares of Basic Black or he'll take the folder to the new police commissioner. Brady asks if she's interested in the contents of the folder and says he can just read the juicy parts first, while Eve says she'll makes herself a drink (as Brady notes it's not even 11:00 am). She's savoring her drink while Brady looks mighty thirsty.
Brady says he found that Eve had a nasty habit of swindling old men for money, even using fake names, such as Chelsea from Springfield and Blair from Pennsylvania. (funny inside joke, as the actress played Chelsea on Guiding Light, set in Springfield, and Blair on One Life To Live, set in Pennsylvania). Brady says she tried the same thing on his ol' Uncle Deimos.
Eve goes through the folder and asks how he found it all. Brady says she's good but not that good, victim #3, Gerald, sued her in court. She said they settled out of court and the case was sealed, so he can't use it against her in court. Eve tells Brady to keep digging all the way to China, while she keeps doing her thing with Basic Black. She says he looks so disappointed and offers him a drink to lift his spirits.
He says he's been sober for weeks. Eve mentions having some of Kentucky's finest bourbon. Brady keeps saying he's not interested. Oh, but Eve saw him take a drink not too long ago, and while she doesn't care, his sponsor Maggie will, and his boss, Victor, will. Or is it Sonny he answers to??
Brady says grandpa knows he's had a drink or two. Well, Eve says, looks like neither one has dirt on the other. She'll go back to running Basic Black and Brady will go back to whatever he does when he's not drinking. She tells him to examine who he's really angry with and that she's not holding him back. That honor goes to his dear ol' grand-daddy. Brady tells her it's no use to try and get him to turn on Victor. She says Victor is playing Sonny and Brady against each other. Says that Victor has turned a blind eye to his drinking because he knows he's going to turn over the reins to Sonny.
Brady keeps defending Victor, while Eve says Vic uses Brady to do his dirty work. She says Brady seems stressed and she'll leave her drink there in case he feels the urge, while she takes the folder with her. Says it'll be a nice trip down memory lane, and leaves.
Hope and Rafe are talking about Ciara taking the motorcycle, about how Ciara is grounded. Rafe tells Hope to turn around, there's Ciara. Hope points out she took away the keys, but Ciara says she had an extra set. Ciara is full of attitude and Rafe shuts down the conversation, tells Ciara they can have a chat about the law and her mother.
Ciara smart mouths Rafe to slap the cuffs on her. Hope tells her to stop, but Rafe says he'd like to talk with Ciara, so Hope leaves. Ciara thinks she can get Rafe on her side, but clearly he's not, tells her she's not going anywhere (she gets on the motorcycle) He tries to talk sense into Ciara, who keeps at it with the attitude. Rafe says that once she gets her motorcycle license, he'll be there to support her and takes her keys. She says he'll never be the man her dad was. Hope comes in with "Ciara Alice" as she storms off. Rafe hands the keys to Hope, who then hands them back (as she goes after Ciara) so he can ride the motorcycle back home (in his nice suit?? Sure)
Sonny goes to Will, tells him he's not giving up on him. Will reminds Sonny they were legally separated. Will asks what about Sonny's fiance, Paul? Sonny goes on about loving Will and not giving up, while Will says you can't force love and attraction. Sonny asks if Will is talking about his kiss with Paul.
Sonny says that Paul said Will kissed him, and asks why. Will said he wanted to kiss Paul. Sonny is questioning why he did it, but Will keeps saying he was attracted to Paul (who answered the door in a towel). Sonny asks Will if he has feelings for Paul. Will says maybe he does. He says he's not in love with Paul but he is attracted to him.
Sonny wants to talk about "us", while Will insists there is no "us" and brings up the legal separation papers (which he had a copy of). Will tells Sonny he's been really nice to him, but he wants to be gay and single after 2 years of being in the closet while with Susan. He wants to explore his options. He apologizes for hurting Sonny, but doesn't want hard feelings and extends his hand for a handshake. Sonny takes Will's hand to shake, but then pulls him into a kiss.
Sonny and Will then smile at each other, Sonny saying he feels the connection, the attraction, right? Will's kind of like "ehhhhhhh". (I've seen him show more enthusiasm for Caroline's clam chowder) Sonny asks why he's fighting the feeling. Will then shows Sonny the journal Sami brought over and suggested he start writing again, picking up his story where he left off. Sonny thinks that's a good idea. Will talks about how he wrecked their marriage by cheating and that if they picked up where they left off, he and Sonny aren't destined for being together.
Sonny says he's made mistakes, while Will says not as big as his mistakes. Sonny says none of that matters, he wants to start over. Will is surprised and asks if he'd be willing to take it slow? Sonny says absolutely. Will asks what is step #1 and Sonny says to move into the K-mansion, in separate rooms. But they'll figure it out together. Will seems to contemplate it. Sonny knows it's a leap of faith, but Will would've asked him to leave already if he wasn't considering it. Will says he made peace with Sami, so he'll do the same for Sonny. He'll move into the K-mansion (won't Victor love that??), but he's not promising anything. He asks for Sonny's help in figuring out what comes next.
Sami comes into the pub to see Roman and Eric with presents. Roman shows her a plate of Christmas cookies that Caroline just sent. The twins joke about Sami eating more than Eric when they were 6. Sami tells them she's there to say goodbye. Roman asks why she can't stay through Christmas, but she says she has to get back to the kids, who miss her. She tells Roman she already misses him. He says he's going in the back to make a sandwich for her so the twins can visit for a few minutes. Sami says it was just so they wouldn't see him cry.
Eric says he'll keep an eye on Will, and that makes Sami happy. Sami tells Eric his new year resolution is to move on from Nicole. He denies he's stuck on her, while Sami is cheerleading him about what a great guy he is and a catch for any woman. The twins hug as Roman joins them. He made her sandwich and put it in a brown bag for her trip. Hugs and kisses between Roman and Sami, as she asks him to look after Will, too. And we get an early Christmas miracle: Eric smiles.
Ciara now storms into the pub and Eric asks what he can do to help. She asks to borrow his car. No, he doesn't think that's a good idea. Fine, she says, buy his favorite cousin a drink. He hands her a drink and she's excited until she sees it's club soda. She's now whining about how Hope is overprotective, while Eric points out Hope lost Zack in an accident. But Ciara counters with she rode all the time in Hong Kong and she's safe about it. He asks if her attitude is about what happened with Theo. No one cares, boo-hoo. Eric tells her it's not true and offers to take her somewhere. She says forget it and leaves, after thanking him for the drink.

Ciara: Where does the rude, nasty Teen Ciara 2 get off telling poor Rafe that he'll never be the man her father was? If Rafe wanted to be unkind, he'd say something like: "Yes, I haven't committed nearly enough felonies. Nor have I had an affair with Carly Manning."
