At Daniel/Nicole's, replay of Nicole entering as Daniel stares at his pad. She hugs him from behind, talking about how wonderful things are. He looks at her sternly, she asks what's wrong. He tells her he had a visitor, but it's nothing. She notices the engagement dates, says it feels so real. He wants her to know how much he loves her, chokes up as he says it. She loves him even more, asks him what is going on. He says she's the only one who can answer that. She doesn't understand; he declares his love for her, he wants her forever. He just wants to make sure nothing's left unsaid between them. She finally tells him there's something he doesn't know, the night Xander tried to kill her & Eric, she & Eric "almost made love." Recaps the numerous murder attempts, the near suffocation and how she truly believed she was going to die. (Really excellent scenes here.) He understands, wants to know if she was ever going to tell him. She wanted to tell him a few times, but couldn't bring herself to hurt him by telling him about something they DIDN'T do, which didn't matter anymore. She realised she was just rationalising, and couldn't live with that lie. How could she convince him to forgive her, when she couldn't forgive herself? Then he proposed, and he convinced her that she's worthy of his love. Eric won't be a problem between them anymore, Eric has prayed and understands now. Nicole's love has never wavered, tried to preserve their love by lying.
At the Kmansion, replay of Megan spitting her gum out on the walkway as Jeannie Theresa enters the mansion, and Brady introducing the perfect nanny. Jeannie T says, "No!" Jeannie T says she has the perfect candidate (who is ringing the doorbell), and is alarmed that Brady hasn't interviewed the Perfect Nanny (Emma) yet. He's got to go to the Office, can't do two interviews, this lady's résumé is perfect, etc. They do a group interview as Brady apologises for the miscommunication. Megan (Crabtree) doesn't want to come back for an interview, but Emma is willing. Jeannie T brings the baby out, Emma gushes and coos, Tate fusses as they joke about stranger anxiety. Jeannie gets Megan to hold the baby, she does, then hands him back to Emma. She tells Jeannie T, "You're never going to get Daddy Warbucks in there to hire me over Julie Andrews." LOL. She finally tells Jeannie T off, says Emma is more qualified, says she's not qualified to convince Brady that Jeannie's the perfect mom. Megan leaves. Back inside, Emma is ready to begin, Brady ushers her & Tate out, will have Henderson show her around. Brady tells Jeannie T she can continue to search for her own place.
At Aiden's office, replay of Aiden asking over the phone about Clyde Weston. The bump is Rafe, who apologises for startling him. He's dropping off a Little League All-Star game lineup. Outside, Hope listens as Aiden hopes he can trust Rafe about what he overheard. Hope enters, reminds Aiden it's quitting time, wonders what he's doing at the office so late. Legwork for a case, he explains. She worries about taking him away from work, he says she's important to him.
In the park, Martin thanks Clyde for his donations. Clyde thinks Martin deserves a raise, but before he can "sign off" on that, he needs a favour concerning a paternity test in which he has a vested interest. Martin tries to leave, but the Bearded Thug blocks the path. Clyde had hoped this would be easy, but now Clyde insists to Martin that he call his wife, Patti, who's at home with his baby, Catlyn, to tell her he's running late. He does, and learns there's a city inspector at the house. He tells her not to worry, everything will be okay. He hangs up, and Clyde continues to threaten him. Clyde outlines his plan, learns that the paternity test is already in progress, and that the potential father's bloodwork was in the database already. Clyde sends him home, will call him later, don't call the cops or there will be consequences.
In another part of the park, replay of Chad answering a call from Zoe. They had plans but he had to cancel because something came up. Enter Ben, wondering what's so important. He tells he's on his way home to Abby, but that's not Chad's business. (These scenes make no sense.)
At Sonny/Will's, replay of Will grabbing Abby to tell her that Chad's in love with her. She asks if he actually said that, Will confirms this. Abby is overwhelmed, talks about the horrible things Chad said; Will explains that was to push him away. Will doesn't have the answers, to get them, she needs to talk to Chad. Chad's lies about lying make her head spin, and she doesn't want to deal with this now. He suggests she know how Chad feels now, before she knows her baby's paternity, and before things get "too serious" with Ben. Implores her to hear Chad out, offers to let him use his apartment to meet with Chad. She agrees; he calls Chad and says Abby's waiting. He offers to stay, but she can handle Chad on her own. He leaves, runs into Chad in the outside-apartment-area, tells Chad to thank him by NOT hurting Abigail.
In the Square, Eric turns away from Serena, and she calls him a hypocrite. He keeps secrets, like she does. She tells him not to make the worst mistake of his life. Don't go back to Nicole. He tells her Daniel/Nicole are engaged.
At Edge of the Square, Rafe calls Tim (his FBI contact) asking if they have any open cases on Weston. A bit later, Hope and Aiden enter, and as Rafe is seating them, Aiden hears a "song" he likes and they start to dance, as Rafe looks on. Later, they're done dancing, Aiden scoots off to talk to a client (Stan something). Rafe comes over, Hope asks about what he & Aiden were REALLY talking about at the office. Rafe dodges, unsuccessfully.
In the park, Clyde tells Ben he doesn't trust Aiden anymore, is having him checked out. Asks Ben to tell him if he thinks of anything else from Ben's earlier conversation with Aiden. Says he ran in to Abby at the Hospital, wonders if Ben's been treated there. Ben doesn't remember the last time he was treated. Chit chat about giving blood, which Ben's never done, either.
Clyde calls Martin from the park, tells him the person whose DNA is being tested is NOT the father of the baby...understood? Martin understands.
Elsewhere in the park, Will has arrived to talk to Ben (yet Chad and Abby have been staring at each other all this time, LOL). Ben's about to call Abigail.
At Will/Sonny's, after apparently staring at each other for 5 minutes, Abby invites Chad in, let's get this over with.
At Nicole/Daniel's, Nicole tells Daniel he knows everything, wishes she'd handled this differently, and had not waited so long to tell the truth. Will he forgive her, or are they over?
At Edge of the Square, Aiden asks Rafe for a bottle of champagne. He and Hope talk about the Salem Bicentennial. She wishes her grandparents were alive to see it, Aiden would have liked to meet them, wants to thank them.
And we close on another shot of the Bicentennial flyer.
