Days of Our Lives

The editing is a bit off today, so bear with it. Hope & Eli get into the hotel room, to find Tripp standing there. He claims he saw the tip they got about this motel, so thought he would come, try to convince JJ & Haley to give themselves up, to no avail. Hope isn't buying it, and has Eli cuffing Tripp to take down for questioning, but she gets a text, relieving her of her duties as commissioner by Mayor Jack Deveraux. They let Tripp go.
Over in the square, Jack has announced his choice for new commissioner, Jennifer's jaw drops, she cannot believe this. Eve accepts, thanks Jack, but Jen questions....are you kidding? This is nepotism at it's worst. She is no more qualified to be Police commissioner than you are to be mayor. Jack tries to calm her down.....doesn't work. Eve comes along, no, he did not hire me, his wife. Hired me because all the bad stuff is gonna get cleaned up. (Jack says Eve was a novice campaign manager, proved herself, so what if a novice at law enforcement.
JJ & Haley have arrived at Smith Island, the Horton cabin (looks so different to me), in their disguise clothes, red print Las Vegas shirts, New York baseball caps. She is glad to finally see this place, JJ does some tales of long ago adventures, when his parents were on the run, in the circus, the bad stuff he himself did. He introduces her to beans and weenies, she thinks not bad, even offering to wash the dishes. We don't see it, but evidently a pipe bursts, he gets soaked, she gets a big towel, and of course he cannot dry himself off, she has to, which ends up in them kissing, until Tripp calls, tells of Hope & Eli, and of Hope being fired.
Lani tries to explain to Rafe why she lied to Ciara, doesn't think Ben should be around David. Sorry she did not tell Rafe. He says that decision is his, not hers to make. She agrees, is sorry again. Ciara does more pleading, Rafe can lay down rules, have supervision. Rafe says he will ask Jordan and if she agrees, o.k. But warns that last time he saw her, Jordan was not in a good way.
After Ciara leaves, Rafe & Lani talk about Jack having come over, Rafe says he just now sent a text to Jack declining the offer of the Commish job. (Note this is after Jack already appointed Eve, etc. )
Later, Eli calls, telling of Hope officially being fired, and Eve appointed. Lani tells Rafe, who now is sorry he did not say yes, too late. Lani talks of resigning, but Rafe says no, the force is going to need every decent cop it has.
When Hope & Eli returned to the station, Eve asks for her gun & badge. Hope says she will turn it over to the replacement, Eve lets her know she is it. Hope looks at Jack......Eve?? Really? But gives up the badge, gun, wishes Eli good luck, leaves. Eve gets immediately bossy over Eli, first priority is finding Haley & JJ. She is nasty and in his face. Later, she wants the file on the cabin fire, Eli protests she wanted him on Haley & JJ. She gets tough, get me that file. Ben Weston belongs behind bars. Eli says there is no substantiation, she gets nasty, get me the file.
Ben comes in as Claire is about to set fire to Tripp's clothes, she halts, tells him of being dumped, and claims she was gonna throw his clothes in the trash, like he threw her. She babbles about his treatment of her, wanting her to wait. Ben does think waiting years for him was a bit much on Tripp's part, then talks about the lighter (Claire had doused and pocketed it). Ben knows it was sent to the cop shop, resembled the lighter he had used, wants to see it, could tell right away. She claims she threw it away.Ben comments about the odd smell in the house, like chemicals. Tells of coming to get Ciara's charger. Leaves.
Tripp returns, she is folding his clothes, has laundered them. He doesn't like that, she is talking of trying to be civil to each other, she is sure he cannot support himself there alone, he says maybe he will take 2nd job. She thinks they can at least try. And who knows. He says never will be be with her again.
He goes out, calls JJ & Haley, tells them of Hope being fired, Eve hired. JJ is beside himself that his father could do such a thing, praising Hope as good detective, taught him a lot.
Hope meets up with Jen at the Pub, who is waiting with glass of wine. Hope is grateful, they talk of Eve's new job, Jen knows she will be after JJ & Haley immediately. Hope tells her of motel room tip, finding Tripp, not taking him in to question. Jen thanks her for helping her son.
Ben meets up with Ciara in the square, she tells him what Rafe promised. Ben thanks her, is so very grateful, hugs, etc. Ciara asks how it went over at combat central ...Ben almost seems to be about to tell her about thinking Claire was going to set fire to Tripp's clothes, but changes his mind. Fine, he replies.
