I'm not sure how many minutes. Approximately 23 of them are wasted.
Pub - Philip and Rex are seated. Philip recaps the Victor-will situation. Rex laments the Xander situation. They recap things such as Philip's embryonic kidnapping and Xander's terrorizing of EJ's mother. Rex isn't mad at Chloe for her reveal. Rex asks about Chloe, who overheard Philip's love declaration for her as well. Philip says Chloe seems to want to be in a relationship with him again and has forgiven him for his actions against Brady. Rex has always rooted for Philip & Chloe. Philip never wants to be an obsessive criminal again (Ed. note: yet again disappointing his daddy, to be sure). Rex thinks it odd that they both are waiting for the women they love to pick them over Xander.
Cook-Lane Apartment - Chloe is talking to her mom on the phone, worried about Xander. He arrives. He slept at the office because yesterday was so crazy. Chloe is relieved. She's moving out. Xander doesn't want that; he's grateful that she's strong and honest (proven by her immediate disclosure of Victoria's paternity). He still wants to be with Chloe, but can't leave town now (he talked with a custody lawyer). Chloe no longer wants to be with him because Philip never stopped loving her. She never stopped loving him either (since she thought he was dead all this time). She needs time to figure things out. She loves Xander, but acknowledges that their love affair started because they weren't over the stepsiblings (Philip & Sarah).
DiMansion - EJ tells some thug who was keeping an eye on the hitwoman that he's now the hitwoman's lawyer. EJ engages the thug to kill Ava. The thug questions this since many want EJ put away. EJ waited too long to avenge his mother. He also wants Xander dead and to frame Rex Brady for it. EJ has no feelings about Rex, but he's the obvious patsy since the paternity reveal.
Crummy Dungeon Room - Ava wants Susan to get the three of them (includes Harris) out since her psychic message lured them here. They want her to send a psychic message to someone. "Comedy" ensues for a few minutes before Susan gets a flash of the action in the flat's living room. The room is soundproofed. More "comedy" from Susan while Ava worries about the impending death of Tripp. They need to find a way out. Susan prays. Harris breaks the chain.
Crumb Flat - Rafe and Tripp talk tough with Edmund. They want to look around; he won't have that. He pulls a gun on them. He doesn't want them to find his guests, who are the people they're looking for. Tripp reveals he's Ava's son. Edmund plans to kill Tripp. There's some blather about how Susan left him. Edmund can't decide in what order to kill them. Who knows how long this standoff lasts before Harris busts out of the dungeon room and disables Edmund.
Crummy Dungeon Room - Ava laments while Susan babbles about her prayer. They hear a shot. Back in the living room of the flat, Edmund shot the ground. Harris hands over the gun to Rafe. Rafe calls Scotland Yard. Harris takes Tripp to find Ava in the dungeon, where Tripp sees Susan's alive. They go back to the living room. Rafe can't believe Susan's alive. They discuss the two mystery men who grabbed Susan, and took her to London. Susan is worried that the men who grabbed her is still on the loose, and her brain is empty of information about who they could be.
THE NEXT DAY [text on-screen]
Private Area - Thug calls EJ at DiMansion and says he's just texted Rex.
Pub - Kate and Rex are arguing about Victoria. He gets "Xander's" text and dashes away.
Cook-Lane Apartment - Chloe has packed. Xander guesses this is it. She'll get the rest of her things some other time. Xander says she'll always have a place here. He gives her the dartboard. He'll never be angry with her. They embrace tearfully. She leaves.
Police Station - Tripp thanks Rafe for allowing his mom to handle things. Rafe's not doing it for kindness, but to nail EJ. He feels Michaels and Ava should be locked up.
DiMansion Living Room Area - EJ is in a schnazzy dressing gown/robe. After speaking with the thug (see above), he tells his daddy's portrait he's about to succeed in killing Ava and Xander. Ava enters from the outside-side door. She's planning to end their little standoff. EJ asks how. At the main doors to the living room area, Harris reveals Susan.
Private Area - Philip and Chloe meet. She tells him she's leaving town.
Cook-Lane Apartment - The thug is dressed as a gas man and tells Xander there's a leak in the building that can't wait. He enters the apartment. Moments later, Rex arrives and befuddles Xander. The thug (whom the credits seem to list as "Bronson" although there's no in-universe confirmation of that) fiddles with his gun in a suitcase. END
