Slightly under 39 minutes of non-credits show; about 47 seconds of television worth watching (*wink*)
Peterson-Brady Apartment - Marlena and Eric talk about the christening that will happen tomorrow as she oohs-and-aahs over a small dress. Marlena suggests a port-a-crib. They're not sure there will be a crib at the DiMansion, although the Pub has one since Roman has watched "every Brady grandchild since forever." They talk about Eric's agreeing to let Nicole host without consulting Sloan. He reports how Sloan and Nicole have bonded after he wonders if Nicole can host without attending the reception. They then recap the Holly/Tate story (for a moment it seems Marlena doesn't know Holly woke up, but I think it's a line flub) and whether or not Holly is lying. Eric and Brady do think so. Eric asks how John is doing, offers an ear for her if she needs it.
DiMansion - Holly is not interested in Nicole's attempts to engage her in planning the party. She is angry that Tate is being blamed for everything. Holly says Tate isn't responsible; Nicole decides this is self-blame and that somebody gave Holly the drugs, even if it wasn't Tate. Nicole blathers on about how she failed Holly, effectively ending any chance of story progression for the foreseeable. She tries to figure out how to call Tate by searching the Serenity House number and then deciding whom she can impersonate (news flash: Rachel is 8). She calls pretending to be Jeannie T.
A Room - Tate is writing in a journal. This allows him to recap his story without looking entirely crazy; he recaps how Holly dated him to get over her stepbrother, and how he must get over her. He gets news of his "mother"'s call.
Square - Bobby Everett is drinking coffee. Stephanie tells him she can't work for him anymore on the Spectator's PR. They talk about his memory gaps. He has no memory of his father. They talk about how much of his memory is missing and what may be the cause. Reminder that his mom died when he was young. She wants to stay in his life but will not be dating him. He asks her not to give up on him, then leaves.
Harris's Room - Harris has a visitor, Xander. Xander vows he's innocent. Harris is stone-faced. Harris believes Xander's innocent as they talk about their mercenary pasts. Harris will help clear Xander, wonders who might set him up. Xander presses Harris's memory. Harris is a blank slate, Xander is curious, Harris says even if he knew something he probably shouldn't/wouldn't tell the prime suspect. Xander understands.
Private Pass-through Area near the Square which really looks like the Horton's across-the-street stoop/park - Bobby Everett runs into Marlena. He is getting nervous about hypnotherapy, but it's a pointless plot cul-de-sac, he will see her for their session. Marlena leaves.
Square - Stephanie calls to Jada, who seems to be avoiding her. Jada is angry about the situation and can't get over that Stephanie is the "other woman". (This seems out of character and contrary to the last time I saw her, but oh well.) Stephanie wants them to hash this out, would never have dated a married guy. Jada doubts this since Stephanie admits to never meeting Everett's friends or family. (Point of order - has she met Rafe's parents?) This gets really heated for no obvious reason, with Jada even insulting Stephanie's choices of jobs. She's angry that Stephanie is sticking by Bobby Everett, when they were supposed to be friends.
DiMansion/Serenity Springs - Tate is relieved to hear from Holly who reminds him she's his mother. Holly wishes she could help. Tate reminds her she can. She recaps how she can't say anything because Nicole will be sad. He knows she's not being selfish. He won't be there much longer. Holly hears a noise, ends the call because EJ is home.
Church - Nicole and Eric run into each other. Nicole has been visiting frequently since her tragedy. They blather about nothing and he confesses his deep secret that he saw her help Sloan calm Jude down. He is glad they are friends. They'll see each other tomorrow at the baptism. Eric leaves. END
