At the townhouse, Belle is asleep on a chair in the living room when Shawn comes over and starts kissing her. All the sudden he morphs into Philip. They kiss passionately. Oops only a dream. Later, Belle opens up her tablet and sees a picture of her and Philip from Vegas, then has a flashback to them playing strip poker, then another flashback from the other day when Philip showed up drunk and started kissing her. She then gets up and leaves the house.
Chloe is with Philip at the Square trying to sober him up. She wonders what happened to make him go get drunk like that. He hedges and then asks her what she’s doing in town. She says she’s actually here to see him and offer an apology. She claims responsibility for the mess he’s been going through with Victor. Philip doubts it could be her fault. She tells him that she’s the reason that Deimos found him. She explains she didn’t know at the time who he really was but it turns out he was just using her for information. He wants to know what exactly Deimos said to her to get her to spill info. She fills him in on meeting “Robert” at the club and they got to talking and he said he had business with Philip. Philip says Deimos waited for me to make a mistake and then pounced. Chloe wonders what he did. He explains about the girl OD’ing in his hotel room and Deimos coming in and cleaning up the mess which led to the blackmail to go after Victor. He had no choice. Chloe feels bad about her involvement but Philip tells her Deimos won’t be a problem anymore as he drowned in the river. Chloe then drops the bomb that Deimos is alive and how she came to his rescue. Philip asks how she found out about him being Deimos. She says he told her. Philip wonders if his parents know about this. She’s not sure and she really doesn’t care one iota about Kate. Philip mentions the relationship between his mother and Deimos and the Nicole factor and then figures out that it really was Kate that pushed Deimos into the river. Chloe nods in agreement. Chloe recounts Deimos’s story of the argument with Nicole and then with Kate ending in her pushing him. Philip asks if she believes it. Chloe retorts Kate tried to kill someone? Uh, yeah! She thought she would have mellowed out over the years. Philip isn’t sure about all this since Deimos is involved. He wonders what Deimos’s next move is. Chloe thinks he’s out for blood. They discuss the fake marriage too. Philip realizes his mother could be in a world of trouble and wants to go warn her of all this. He asks when she’s heading back to Chicago. Tomorrow. She talks of having to find another job as her hours at the club have been cut in half. He gets a lightbulb moment. He asks her to meet him for breakfast at the Pub tomorrow and he will explain everything. He takes off to go find Kate.
Nicole is with Parker at the Pub eating ice cream. He asks her if she misses his daddy. Every day, she says. But he’s always with us. Parker says he keeps the monsters away. She asks him about meeting Deimos. He says he was nice to him but mommy was mad at Deimos. Nicole explains that Deimos likes to play games and can be selfish so be careful around him. Later Chloe shows up to join them. Parker runs off to check out the juke box. Chloe asks how things went with Parker. Nicole says he was an angel but he’s worried about his mom. Nicole starts to question Chloe’s involvement with Deimos. Chloe fills her in on the whole story. They then talk about Deimos being obsessed with Nicole due to her resemblance to Helena. Nicole asks if she still has feelings for Deimos. Chloe talks about how he asked her to go away with him but then Nicole showed up and she saw the way he looked at her and could tell she didn’t stand a chance. Nicole says it’s Helena that Deimos wants not her. Chloe is just mad at herself for falling for the guy and alludes to the two of them sleeping together. She asks Nicole if the charges have been dropped yet. Nicole says no. Chloe offers that perhaps Deimos just wants to build up a case against Kate to really take her down. Nicole is not so sure. Chloe thinks they should band together to protect themselves from Deimos. Parker returns and hugs Nicole goodbye. Chloe then tells Parker that they are going to stick around Salem for a bit. Parker is excited.
Over at the K-mansion, Kate imagines Deimos arriving back home and he taunts her a little bit until she stabs him with a letter opener. Meanwhile, Deimos is hovering outside the front door. Kate then has another fantasy of killing him with a fireplace poker. And a third fantasy where Kate tells him how sorry she was for how things happened at the river and asks his forgiveness. He asks about them being married which she said was a strategic move to save the business. He is inspired by her stealth. She pours him a drink and they toast but she notices he doesn’t drink it. He thinks she poisoned it but when he turns around she shoots him dead. Now, real-life Deimos has entered the living room but Kate has left.
Kate goes to see Roman at the police station demanding answers about the case to find Deimos. He can tell she’s on edge. He notes she’s had quite a few husbands and men in her life so he’s not really buying her phony concern about Deimos here. He even mentions her being with Clyde longer than this and didn’t blink an eye when she got rid of him. Roman can see something is eating away at her and offers to be there for her as a friend. She tells him she’s a mess. She lost the man she loved. She wasn’t looking for it and actually was happy to be just her and on her own but then Deimos came to town and she found her equal. Roman seems skeptical and thinks she’s holding something back. Kate sneers that she is upset her husband is missing and it’s all because of Nicole.
Later, Shawn is at the station banging on the keyboard. Roman walks in and wonders whose face was on that keyboard to make him so angry. Shawn tersely replies, Philip. He tells Roman about Philip showing up drunk to the townhouse and how he’s always around making a play for Belle. Roman thinks he should handle this man to man.
Philip shows up at the mansion banging on the door yelling for his mother. Deimos is inside having a drink. Philip then tries the handle and opens the door. When he walks in Deimos is gone. Later we see Philip walking through the square and Shawn calls after him. Philip tries to apologize for his behavior earlier and wants to make amends. Shawn says to leave Belle alone and is asking him to step aside for everyone’s sake. Belle is wandering through the square. Philip then tells Shawn that Belle doesn’t really love him. Shawn is getting irritated. Philip says she’s not that “Last Blast Dance” girl that Shawn is trying to force her to be. He tells Shawn that Belle has a wild side and if he keeps her locked up a part of her will die. Shawn says he’s not trying to lock her up. Philip leaves just as Belle walks up.
Nicole is walking through the square and looks at her phone. Next we see Kate return home and starts to head upstairs but then hears the piano from the other room. She enters and sees Deimos playing. He stops and raising his glass says, “hello darling, aren’t you going to welcome me home?” Kate looks scared.
