JJ tells Kyle he doesn’t want him hanging out with Paige. He says it’s none of his business. Paige walks up and agrees telling JJ to get the hell out of her life. Paige says this is her loser ex-boyfriend and don’t believe a word from him as he’s a liar. Kyle says whatever is going on between you two is none of my business and he takes off. Paige rips into JJ about butting into her life and tells him to stay away from her. He says he’s trying to do just that. He then tells her to get a brain and says for someone so smart she’s really stupid. She slaps him. He just wants to warn her about Kyle saying he’s bad news and she should stay away from him. He accepts things are over between them but he won’t let her make this mistake with Kyle. She says he’s right about him being out of her life. JJ walks away as Paige tells him to say hi to her mom.

Nicole says everywhere she turns there’s Serena. They go back and forth trading barbs and calling each other names. Aiden walks up asking if everything is ok. Nicole says just the person I wanted to see. She introduces him to Serena telling him she’s the one who used Eric and worked with Xander who tried to slow cook her and Eric. She’s thinking about going for a civil suit against Xander and Serena. Aiden pulls Nicole aside saying if she has a prayer in this case she needs to learn when to shut her mouth. He leaves. Nicole and Serena continue their bickering. Serena isn’t scared about her stupid lawsuit. Nicole says that’s the least of her worries and she has another thing. She talks about using her job at the station to out Serena. Nicole harps on her about the blood diamonds and how there are children’s blood on her hands and no degree of separation is going to wash it off. She used an innocent man to smuggle those in and then slept with him to get them back. Serena compares Nicole’s work to the National Enquirer and no one will care. Nicole disagrees. She knows Serena still cares about Eric and what he thinks of her and after she’s through with her Eric won’t ever forgive Serena. Nicole leaves.
Jennifer picks up her drink as Eve spies on her. Jen takes a sip but it tastes funny. She takes it back to the place she got it from and tells them it tastes weird. They offer another but she declines and walks away. Eve is ticked off. She turns around and runs into Eric. They chat about his ordeal and then Eve starts talking about his website until Jen rushes in to hug Eric so excited to see him. Eve once again looks mad. Jennifer gushes about what he went through and glad he’s ok. Eve takes her leave. Eric and Jennifer continue discussing what happened to him.

At Daniel’s Hope spots the engagement ring. She apologizes saying she didn’t mean to see it. He asks if she likes it. She says it’s exquisite. He wants her to keep this to herself. She asks if he’s really going to ask Nicole to marry him. He knows they had their ups and downs but he’s ready to do this. Hope thinks he’s going to ask her tonight and wonders where the candles and champagne are. He says he’s going to wait a bit. She’s skeptical about it all and he can tell she’s not thrilled about it. Daniel thinks Hope thinks it’s a bad idea. She thinks it might be a bit rushed. He understands how she feels but says he came close to losing Nicole and isn’t going to let that happen again. Hope says he deserves to be happy and she looks forward to dancing at their wedding but if Nicole screws this up she’s an idiot. Hope gets ready to leave. He mentions the Xander case and can’t believe he’s connected to that animal. She reminds him to hide the ring. Hope takes off for her date with Aiden.
Eve and Eric arrive at his place. Chit-chat and talk of heating up leftovers for dinner. Eve apparently cooked up something delicious, says she added hot sauce. He starts looking for that photo she was looking for. She picks up a photo of Serena noting how lovely she is but can see she touched a nerve. Eric explains he let his guard down and should have never trusted her. Eve asks if she was involved in what happened with him and Nicole. He says Serena has other crimes she needs to worry about answering to and she won’t get away with it. Sooner or later you have to pay for your crimes. Eve gets a guilty look on her face as she touches the pill bottle in her purse. Later she chooses a photo that she just loves saying how varied his work is. He mentions something about Jennifer giving him good ideas and this sets Eve off saying might as well just give her the Nobel Peace prize. He says she’s welcome in her home and knows she and Jen have their issues but he won’t tolerate her talking about his friend like that. She appreciates his directness. Eve says she knows there’s a part of her that’s crazy in her thinking about Jennifer but it doesn’t help that everyone in this town just LOVES her and thinks she can do no wrong. She talks about how it sends her to a dark place and she doesn’t want to go there. She needs to be there for her daughter. He appreciates that she feels she can open up to him. She thanks him for opening her eyes a bit too about her priorities. She leaves.
JJ returns home. Jen can see he’s upset assuming it’s about Paige. She tells him he has to figure out how to let her go. He understands that but there are people she is hanging out with that aren’t good for her and he’s scared. She tells him he needs to accept things and move on. He thinks there’s something else he can do.
Kyle comes up to Paige with a flower. He asks if she’s alright and wonders about her and JJ. She doesn’t want to talk about him and would rather talk about the two of them. He asks her to go somewhere more private. She says she has to get back to her dorm right now but looks forward to hanging out sometime.

Aiden is at the hotel suite waiting for Hope with candles, champagne, the works. He’s in a tux. She bursts into the room sorry she’s late, sees what he has set up and is taken aback. She immediately goes into his arms and kisses him. They clink champagne glasses and reminisce about their relationship and how things started. He asks if she knows what day it is and then offers a reminder holding up a dress bag. When they return to the scene, she comes out of the bathroom in a strapless white gown. He has turned on music and they start swaying together. He tells her it’s the one year anniversary of their dance at the gala together. She thinks this whole thing is beautiful and she’s so touched he remembered. He talks of how that moment he was no longer bitter and she’s made him so happy. Kiss.

:angry:
And the Eric and Eve scenes were weird too although she's a little more tolerable in those than with Jennifer. I'm so ready for Serena to die or otherwise leave Salem. Seriously, buh-bye!
Eric will be mad at Nicole for "making" him keep the truth from Daniel.
