Episode #10,629 Taped 7/18 Director – Albert Alarr
At the hospital, outside Roman’s room, Belle is giving Shawn a litany of the medical progress, all the medications, and IVs, etc. Shawn is impressed by her technical jargon, and wants to see Roman. Nope, he has gone off to sleep. She gushes about the wonderful things doctors and nurses do to help people, and announces she wants to go to nursing school. Looonnnggg zzzzzzz conversations now with Shawn against it, Claire needing a home, Belle helping, going to Marlena for financial help (and just why does Belle not mention her dad…..he is the one with all the money!) Shawn taking a 2nd job, stability for Claire, Mom needed for Claire, Dad needed for Claire, yada, yada. Shawn finally agrees, which makes Belle very happy.
Elsewhere, apparently in the hospital, tho why I have no idea, Billie is going over a large envelope that Philip received, noticing the Indianapolis postmark. Philip is having a royal fit, as Billie pulls out the picture inside, and the note saying here is your son, about time you started paying something for his upkeep. Billie notices a prescription bottle in the background and says she will take the picture up to the lab and blow it up to get the name on the bottle. (Boy the hospital lab is sure accommodating to anyone, aren’t they?). She leaves. Later, Phil is in the same spot, talking to his dad (gee, glad the show remembered he has one!) on his cell, explaining he took the day off, and will talk to him. Belle & Shawn come by, and Philip tells them about the envelope and the picture. Cue Billie to come off the elevator, with the information. The name on the bottle is Tyler Kiriakis, she got a cop friend to run a check, has the address in Indianapolis, phone number…..and the kid even has a social security number in that name. Philip calls the number on his cell (WHY do I seem to remember one is not supposed to use cell phones in a hospital?) & when a woman says hello, Phil announces his name, saying he is coming out there with a detective…and bingo. She hangs up. Billie & Philip take off. Belle has been looking at Shawn strangely, mentioning that he looked odd when Billie mentioned Indianapolis. She asks him again where he went on the 4th of July, he repeats his “driving around Salem” alibi, but she pursues it further, asking him if he did, after all, go to Indianapolis.
On the beach, Chelsea is rubbing sun lotion on herself, with Nick seemingly getting a bit turned on. He does her back, and she talks of her conversation with Kate, the money she got for her tuition in spite of the bad things she has done, and how she has been thinking about her mother and decided to forgive her. Nick asks if she is doing that because she wants to or because Kate told her to, saying something about there was not supposed to be any strings attached. Chelsea is puzzled, but he wiggles out saying a gift is supposed to be just that. He tries to kiss her, but Chelsea backs off, wanting first to lay down some ground rules if they are to start fresh. Well, one rule, honesty. They both must always be honest, and she proceeds to tell him how she felt about Jett, but he lied to her and only wanted to use her. No, she did not sleep with him, but might have. Nick lied to her, too, but only to protect her, Jett did to protect his job. Now she wants to know if Nick felt bad when he was lying to Stephanie. (what a dumb question). For the record, yes, he did. More yada back and forth. Nick has lost his job, and has to start searching the want ads. Light banter about chicken farming, or dancing. LOL They are eating, actually eating. Wonders never cease. They finally get into a clinch, and up pops China Lee, tsk, tsking that Nick is only married a month, and already cheating. He jumps up, says he never saw her before in his life. Oh, yes he has, she claims, every single inch of this gorgeous body. LOLOL She pulls out a marriage license. He vows it is fake, and is taking it to his Uncle Mickey, top attorney in Salem. He leaves.Chelsea calls her a liar, and she admits she is a good one, but not this time. She hands Chelsea a video CD telling her to just see for herself.
Outside the Pub, Lexie stares at Abe, then pulls up her hood, and turns away. Abe tells her not to go. Now folks, Abe & Lexie have such a long and heartfelt conversation and I cannot write it all down. But it is wonderful, and James Reynolds proves once again what an absolutely fabulous actor he is. Lexie tries to tell him how bad she is for him, that she is a tramp. No she isn’t, counters Abe. He talks of how he missed her, how he loves her, how he realizes the mistakes that he made. She tells him of that proverb that goes what is bred in the bone is born in the flesh. She is a DiMera. No you are not, counters Abe. You are a Carver. He apologizes to her, because he seemingly was always making her prove herself over and over again. He tells her all the things he has loved about her, and how he did protect her the way he should have. He wants her to take off that hood and stop hiding. Lexie is adamant, but Abe is persistent with his words of love. Lexie seemingly will not budge, Abe is better off without her. He turns away, and she calls out to him. He turns, she drops the hood, and with tears in her eyes, (AND in mine) goes into Abe’s arms and they embrace.

Kudos to James Reynolds and Reneé Jones in these scenes. Very moving.
