Episode #11,147 Taped 7/15 Director – Albert Alarr
We really jump around town today….so bear with me. Seems to be a new day has dawned in Salem. Melanie wakes up, flashes back to her little romp with Philip last night, he wakes up, they engage in a bit of pillow talk, no regrets, where do we go from here, we will just have to take it one step at a time and see, yada, yada. There is a lot of noise at the door, both jump out of bed, Melanie is wrapped in the sheet and into the bathroom, while Phil quickly dons his pants and opens the door. And there is the motel mgr. On his knees outside the door, sorry about the noise, needed to fix the A/C and wanted to get it done before it got too hot. Now he talks of the hot chick Phil brought here last night, wants her number as he could use some hot merchandise to fill empty rooms at night. Philip grabs his shirt front, shoves him up against the wall, the guy apologizes, Philip goes back into the room. He checks his cell, finding the battery is dead, he will have to get his charger.
At the hospital, Stephanie asks Nurse Maxine if Philip has been admitted last night, as Lucas arrives. She has been trying to reach him, and Maxine notes that no Philip K. was admitted. Stephanie tells Lucas she has been trying to reach Philip to tell him about Ciara, which surprises Lucas, no one told him. He wonders if Victor or his mom knows, Stephanie tells him that Victor is the one who told her, claims Maggie is notifying all those overseas. Lucas is a bit upset that everyone was called except him. (guess Maggie might have been a bit reluctant to call him after the way he treated her). Stephanie leaves, Lucas pulls a big envelope out of his pocket, stares at it. Nathan comes along, Lucas inquires about Chloe, they go in her room. Lucas does not want to bother Lexie and wants an update, then shows Nathan the papers he takes out of the envelope. Lucas was going thru some boxes at home, found this…..her living will. She does not want to be kept alive if no hope, etc. But Nathan tells him if these papers have not been filed with an attorney, or the hospital, they cannot abide by them, and the decision will have to be her husband’s, as before. Nathan leaves the room, Lucas tells Chloe that it seems her fate is in his hands.
Melanie has skipped in, lol, (o.k. at least that is what it seems like, but not really), telling Maxine she is taking a personal day, won’t be showing up for her shift. Maxine asks how her nursing class, Melanie is going to skip that, too, & when Maxine tells her she could lose her spot in the class, Mel says they would not dare. Out comes Nathan, Maxine fills him in, he tells Melanie he hopes it wasn’t because of him. Melanie cheerily tells him not to be so full of himself, just because he two timed her with Stephanie, and dumped her on their date preferring Stephanie over her….doesn’t mean a thing. He is not all that. She bounces off. LOL Stephanie returns, chats it up with Nathan, talking of how she hardly slept last night, worrying about Ciara, and thinking about Philip. She feels she has to talk to him, since he left his job, and family.
Daniel has been trying to reach Brady, wondering if he came up with a plan to get into Chloe’s room…..tho he knows Brady is probably helping in the search for Ciara. Kate comes upon Daniel on the pier, and begins immediately to verbally stick pins in him. She talks of how stupid he is, rushing to try and get into Chloe’s room when he got out of jail, after trying to kill her. Daniel tells her she knows it was her, but Kate goes on and on at how, when Chloe dies, he will be sentenced to death himself, and she will be sitting in the visitor’s room, watching. Daniel tries to reason with her, talking of how Chloe saved her life. Kate says Chloe did not pull her from a burning building, that she only gave a little bone marrow, big deal. She does the entire wicked witch routine, nasty as can be, smirking all the while.
Philip arrives home, calling for Henderson, but out comes Stephanie, happy to see him, and that he is o.k, since she was unable to reach him. He explains about his dead phone, she tells him about Ciara, then that she heard he left the family. He says it was his decision, she knows that. There is some rather awkward conversation, but Philip realizes she is suggesting they perhaps get back together. Melanie has arrived, and seeing Stephanie, steps away from the door, sadly listening, as Philip & Stephanie speak of talking their situation out, and perhaps getting back together.
Kyle is trying to get Ciara to eat something, she is saying no. Brenda comes over, telling Ciara if she doesn’t eat, she will die, and then will never see her mommy & daddy again. Ciara finally takes a bite of whatever it is. Brenda gets a call from Dean, goes outside to talk. He tells her the money has arrived, time for the next step.
Over at the cop shop, a frantic, emotional and exhausted Bo & Hope are still waiting impatiently for some word from the kidnappers. Traitor cop Dean listens and watches all conversation. Roman has arrived, will be checking some other leads. Justin arrives with the money in what appears to be a silver/aluminum/metal briefcase, says all the money is there, 50s and lower unmarked bills, no sequence to the numbers. Roman returns with the list of recent prisoner releases, narrowed down to four that Hope put away, but none seem to be involved. Hope sobs that it is her fault, and the kidnappers have said so. The cops cannot figure out why Hope seems to be targeted. Dean leaves the station, and using gloves, calls the kidnappers, telling him to get the next stage moving. He hangs up, stomps on the phone, throwing the broken parts in different directions.
The cops have been unable to trace the call to Hope, different towers being used. Hope is beside herself, and then her phone rings. Brenda, using the synthasizer, warns Hope again about doing exactly what they tell her. Hope says they have the money, and she wants to see her baby. Brenda tells her to check her e-mail, and hangs up. Bo & Hope rush to the laptop, to find a pic of a tied up Ciara holding the morning edition of the Chicago Daily Report. Bo orders someone to contact the Chicago police, and tells Roman to have the lab boys go over that picture, pixel by pixel, to see if they can nail a location.
Dean has snuck out, arrives at the shack, where Ciara is blindfolded, tied up, and listening to music …..so cannot hear them. Now we learn the why of Hope being targeted here. Seems that she got promoted to detective instead of Dean, who had already put in years, had done the citations, grunt work for her, and she gets the credit and gets the promotion. He calls her a few choice names while on his rant, with Brenda joining in on how Hope is rich, knew the commissioner who is now the mayor. Dean is oozing resentment, at one point kissing Brenda, so we know they are “together”, and takes his leave.
Back at the station now, Dean is suggesting to Bo that this trouble all started when that lawyer arrived, but Bo assures him that the guy is on the Jonas case, and is his cousin, all is well. Dean goes in another room, uses someone’s phone to text his cronies(Justin’s????)next Hope gets another call on where to bring the money. Alone, no cops, no snipers in trees, etc. etc. etc. Brenda pulls out a gun, sticks it in her back belt line, and tells Ciara it is time to get this show on the road. At the cop shop, there is now a few minutes of arguing, as Bo insists she is gonna get backup, Hope insists this is their child, she go it alone, Roman goes back and forth a bit, finally Bo caves and agrees. Hope takes the briefcase, she and Bo hug, exchange a few kisses and she is on her way. She arrives at a clearing in the woods, (west side of the river) and waits.
Back at the station, Bo sits at the laptop, and suddenly gets a vision, in black & white, of a ski-masked person bringing Ciara, who runs into Hope’s arms, but the kidnapper pulls a gun, shooting Ciara. Hope screams and cries no, no, and sits cradling her daughter, crying my Ciara, no, no.
