Basic Black: Xander is on a business call when Brady enters and swipes Xander's phone. Brady thinks Xander stole his phone. Brady lowers the boom, knows Xander blackmailed his way into the job. They bicker and Xander dares Brady to fire him. Xander also reminds Brady he once came between Nicole & Eric. It's escalating when Nicole enters. Xander takes the rest of the day off, learns the phone was the trigger. Nicole hands him the phone, which she claims to have found "in the kitchenette off of conference room B". Brady doesn't remember being there. Nicole cons him, he admits he's been out of it lately. Nicole is sad, Brady forgot that it was Eric/Nicole's anniversary. He gives her the day off.
Pub: Nicole enters and flashes back to her wedding. Later, she's seated at a table, upset. Theo comes upon her. He tries to console her and returns the phone. Good news: He got Kristen's number. Bad news: It was probably a burner. Theo is curious as to what topics Nicole and Kristen may have discussed; Lucas, passing by, is also curious. Theo leaves. Lucas sits down. Nicole is trying to prove her theory, Lucas cracks jokes but Nicole sees through him and remains resolute in her determination to prove Sami slept with him. Lucas recalls the match scene - he was the tong operator! He has the letter and will keep it from Nicole. Lucas calls Sami and she relays the letter's chain of custody. He thinks they're not in the clear. She talks about how great things are with EJ now, EJ's changed. She apologizes for this talk, Lucas plays it off. After they end the call, Lucas says EJ may find out another way.
DiMansion Bedroom: EJ asks if Sami will sneak out on him again. He woke up after their rendezvous yesterday afternoon, and she was gone. Where was she? She flashes back to her Emmy®-worthy match scene. She went downstairs to get a drink, he went downstairs as well and didn't see her. She lies. He has a surprise for her. It's a necklace to thank her for standing by him. They make out, but EJ has to leave. Sami gets a call from Lucas (see below).
Eric's Apartment: Allie tiptoes back into bed with Tripp. She had to feed Henry. Tripp wants to leave, but Allie won’t let him because Chanel is on the couch and doesn't know they spent the night together. On the couch, Chanel awakens and recalls Tripp and Allie going into the bedroom. Allie scoots out to talk to Chanel, offers her breakfast. Chanel says she knows she spent the night with Tripp. She's surprised, as she thought Allie was headed to a breakup with Tripp. Chanel calls to Tripp, it's safe to come out. Tripp heard everything, they discuss the current state of affairs.
Chanel supports Allie and Tripp, thought there were mutual feelings with her & Horton, but there aren't, and it will be OK. Allie has several worried one-shots during Chanel's speech. Later, Chanel has dressed but Allie's still in a robe. Chanel is leaving, has overstayed her welcome. Time to find her own place. She'll get her own breakfast. She starts to leave, Allie asks her to text her. Again, lots of worried Allie one-shots. Later, they talk about Chanel's feelings. Allie's no longer confused, she might have led Chanel on unintentionally. She's into Tripp. They kiss; she's going to grab Henry to go to a mommy-social-group, they'll all leave together. Allie goes to the bedroom; Tripp has a worried reaction.
Rafe's: Gabi has a design meeting, Jake is shirtless and plans to juggle apples. They discuss Sami's infidelity and Jake's job opportunities. He likes Gabi's pep talks. Gabi has her eyes on Titan; she likes Philip but acknowledges that his hold on the company is tenuous at best. When she is named CEO, she'll work to destroy DiMera. They want to have a quick adult encounter before she leaves for the meeting. (There are some negotiations about how long they have and need.)
Construction Zone in the Square: Chanel is upset, Theo asks what's happening. They talk about the Square debacle. He wants to help her. She kisses him. He meant ice cream, not public frenching. They talk about his engagement to Ciara. She admits she's upset about more than the bakery, he offers his ear.
DiMera Office: Lucas drops in to talk with EJ.
Horton House: Sami meets with Xander, wants the truth about him and Nicole.
Eric's Apartment: Nicole enters, there are flowers and a card from Eric. She is reading the card when Eric steps into the room. "Happy Anniversary." END.
