Oh, boy, Victor & Clyde go head to head, what fun. At Club Nameless replay of Rafe telling Kate & Clyde to finish their drinks and leave. But the Kate manages to remind Rafe it would not be good publicity for Rafe to throw out two such upstanding citizens on the very first night. Clyde keeps talking of Rafe no longer being a cop, so no good cause.
Meanwhile, Abby is arguing with Chad about going after Ben, with Chad insinuating Ben is not on the up and up with her, lies, etc. She laughs at look who is talking of lying, and tells him that what she & Ben talk about is none of his business. Ben is arguing with Jordan, who can't believe Ben is swallowing Clyde's whole act. Ben talks of how Clyde is trying to change, and though Jordan wants to tell how he really hasn't, she flashes back to Clyde threatening to tell Ben how she deliberately crashed the truck, killing Mama and his little brother. Abby & Ben come in, Jordan says all is o.k. Chad says they can leave, but Jordan says no, they will stay, and all 4 go back into the club.
When Ben & Abby comes back to the table, Rafe leaves, evidently deciding not to press the issue of Clyde & Kate leaving, and as Ben & Abby sit down, Clyde tells Kate they should leave these two to enjoy themselves, and go to another table.
At the Kmansion, Victor is talking to one of his men, who is telling all about the trucker fight, and the guy in the hospital. Victor will take care of the hospital bills, and knows who is responsible for this, a hillbilly, name of Clyde. And wow, Victor knows Clyde had all the drug business sewed up in Poplar Bluff, and now has come here, even taking on Riverfront Park. Damon is surprised, as everyone agreed it was off limits, but Vic says after EJ died, Clyde saw his chance and grabbed it. The trucking business is to launder the money. Damon offers to help get rid of Clyde, but Victor will do that himself. Damon offers the help of other men as well, but Vic says no.....just as Maggie comes in. She just returned from checking something at Chez Rouge, and since both are dressed up, suggests checking out his new club. (She has greeted Mr. Damon, who has left)
Over at Paul's room, replay of Paul asking Will if he wanted them to get together again, as he moves in closer and closer. Will is silent, and sure enough, they are kissing, getting worked up, shirts comes off, Will's arms are around Paul as he looks at his ring finger, remembers the vows when he & Sonny exchanged the rings, and Will backs off. This is wrong, cannot do this, puts his shirt back on. Paul is a bit upset, and another conversation ensues about Paul coming out or not. Will is encouraging him, Paul is being sarcastic about Will only caring about the article, but then Will brings up other athletes who have opened up, helped others, etc. Paul reflects, Will is right, he will come out, but is too exhausted to talk now, tomorrow will be better, he can collect his thoughts and figure exactly what he is going to say.
John, Marlena & Sonny all tiptoe out of Arianna's room, with them teasing John over how he gets Ari to laugh so much. All 3 sit and chat for a bit, with Sonny asking about the cop job offer, Basic Black, and how he figures John already has made up his mind to take it. John insists he has not, that this is a decision they both make together. Sonny gets a call, isn't too happy, John & Marlena figure it is time to leave. In the square they comment how deserted it is as they sip their coffee. John says maybe that is why Sonny seemed upset about the call, but Marlena is worried about both Sonny & Will, who are each leading such individual busy lives.
Victor & Maggie arrive at the club, Maggie is impressed with how it all looks, etc. But Victor is scowling when he spots Chad. Maggie goes to say hello to Abby & Ben, Vic talks with Rafe, figures Stefano sent Chad to spy on the place. What could be worse than having a DiMera here. Uh, oh, he spots Clyde, his mouth tightens. He wants to toss Clyde out, Rafe says he feels the same, mentions what Kate said about bad publicity. Never mind, Vic will take care of this. He goes over, Clyde gets up, and oh, wow, the sparks and the snark flies between them. Vic warns Clyde that his employees are like his family, and hurting his family, means hurting me. Clyde is smart mouthing Victor right & left, calling him an old man who should be retired like Stefano, that they may have rules Salem for 30 years, that time is over, go enjoy being retired. Vic warns Clyde he has no idea who is dealing with, but Clyde is pretty cocky. Before Victor can say more, Maggie comes up, thanking Mr. Weston for his generous donation to the hospital. He kisses her hand, is happy to see her, comments that poor folk like he was didn't get much of anything, so he is happy to help the less fortunate. Victor wants to leave, she goes to say goodbye to Abby & Ben.
At home, she comments on how quiet Victor was on the way back, he says he was distracted. At first she talks of him being jealous that Kate is dating another man, but Vic doesn't give a darn who Kate shacks up with. She realized he doesn't like Mr. Weston, & yaks about the donation. Victor doesn't trust the guy, ulterior motives, etc.
Back at the club, Abby & Ben take their leave, Clyde bids them good night, telling his son he was glad they got to spend time together, and he loves him. Ben does a half smile, just says Good Night, Dad. Later, Clyde is looking pensive, Kate asks what is wrong, and Clyde says it is the first time he called me Dad.......ever! It was good to hear, even once. Kate is happy for him. They kiss.
Out in the square, Ben is very quiet, and finally tells Abby that he called his father Dad, it just slipped out, and he has never ever done that. She says "even when a little boy". And Ben replies that once he was locked in a room for refusing to say it, and still wouldn't. Abby realizes this is huge for Ben.
Jordan & Chad have left the club, exchange some banter about her loving the dress, feeling like Cinderella, him saying how that ball did not turn out well. She laughs, yeah, Cinderella was left with pumpkin seeds in her hair, and no shoes. He thinks she still looks beautiful, she thinks he is still a prince, promising that Clyde is not going to spoil their time together. They kiss.
Paul call his mother, talking of needing more therapy for a few months, plus some other things, and since he is stuck there, could she come to Salem, with Grampa. (we do see her!) She says no, that even tho Grampa is o.k. she is just busy and cannot come to Salem. Paul asks again, wants to see them, talk in person, but she adamantly refuses, she absolutely cannot come to Salem.
Will arrives home, is sorry to be late, can see Sonny upset. It isn't that. For the first time ever, the club did hardly any business, they lost money for the day. He figures it was because of Uncle Vic's club opening, tells Will how he was asked to run it, turned it down. Will is confused...Sonny was willing to take money from Vic. Sonny claims it would have been a loan, but he refused the club as he did not earn it. Sonny says their problem is no cash, Will talks of the bills they have to pay, Sonny brings up how he blew all their savings. Will notes that Sonny supported them all for a long time, but Sonny says he did not mind at all. It was fine. Will talks of how he is now able to contribute, but Sonny notes that he even blew Will's L.A. money. He goes into his bedroom, slamming the door, as Will calls out to him.
