Sami scams her way not only into getting Austin to take her to the Titan benefit, but also into taking her shopping for something to wear to it.

Carrie asks Hope if she can move back in to the apartment and Hope is only too happy to have her back. She tells her that Bo wants a divorce so he can remarry Billie. They then decide to go to the Titan benefit together.

Bo arranges for Billie to go and meet a client at a hotel. When she gets there, however, she finds dinner for two set up. Bo arrives and they make love before Mickey calls Bo and tells him he can rush the divorce in a matter of days.

Peter is sure that Jack stole the portrait and he gets Lou to call the police. Meanwhile, at the graveyard, the Lady in White slashes the picture and soon afterwards, Jack finds it and the knife. Jennifer and Peter arrive in short order and Jack insists he is not responsible for the damage. They all go back to the pub and watch Jack’s videotape, but they cannot see the Lady in White on it. The Sheriff arrives and gives Jack a choice - go to jail or get out of town. Jack, however, does not plan to leave until he gets some answers. He retraces his steps back to the graveyard and finds a piece of white lace caught on a tree branch. He decides to leave Aremid, but vows to return when things settle down. The Lady in White watches as he departs.

Sami is surprised to learn that Carrie is moving back into her old apartment, and is dismayed that Austin can’t seem to take his eyes off her at the benefit. She tells Lucas that Carrie is moving back in with Hope.

Vivian realises that Caroline is still suspicious about her role in returning Sami to Salem, but Ivan reassures her that no one will ever find out about what happened in Seattle. Meanwhile, Mr Panetta from Seattle arrives. He is with a business associate of Victor’s. He speaks to Sami and joins her table. He tells Caroline he is from Seattle and that there is something very familiar about the woman who is onstage, hosting the show. Caroline tells him her name is Vivian. Sami tells Panetta she doesn’t want anybody to know about Seattle. Vivian spots Panetta in the audience, by which time he realises that she is Sister Mary Vivian from Seattle.

Vivian tells Tony that John hasn’t shown up yet. Tony begins to panic. At the loft, John and Kristen are getting carried away with each other and have lost track of the time. John notices the phone is off the hook, and when he replaces it he gets a call and he realises he is late for the benefit. They quickly get ready and make haste to the Penthouse Grill.

Carrie and Austin are selected by Theodore the Amazing as volunteers from the audience who are to be handcuffed together. However, the trick goes wrong and they are stuck with each other until Theodore’s assistant can find the right key.

Bo and Hope arrive at the hotel in Santa Rosa. It is the same hotel in which they stayed last time they visited, but it is very different now. The woman who owns the hotel, Carmen, is delighted to see them back after all this time and they do not tell her that they have returned to Santa Rosa to get a divorce. Carmen pulls some strings and gives them the same room they stayed in last time.

John asks everybody at the benefit to donate money in the memory of Kate Roberts before he enters the tank. Tony starts the ball rolling with a donation of $10,000 if John emerges from the tank alive. Kristen holds up the commencement of the trick further when she suddenly freaks out, but Billie reassures her that they wouldn’t let John do it if it wasn’t safe. John is lowered into the tank...

Panetta confronts a worried Vivian as Sami, Lucas and Ivan watch on. Vivian brushes his questions off and goes to see John’s trick. Kristen begins to worry when John does not emerge from the tank promptly, but Billie is certain they are just building the drama, and Vivian agrees. Then, Theodore announces that there’s something wrong and all hell breaks loose. Austin and Lucas are eventually able to pull John out of the tank and Mike and Lexie revive him. Abe is suspicious that so many things went wrong at once with the tank and plans to look into it, while Charles pleas with Tony to stop the madness...

Panetta accosts Vivian again, but she manages to convince him that he has mistaken her for someone else. He tells Caroline the resemblance between the two women is quite uncanny.

Kristen tells Billie how terrified she was for John’s safety and considers that it might not have been an accident. Billie points out that if that is so, then someone was trying to kill John. Later, she tells Tony that if anything happens to John she’ll hold him responsible. He realises he must find a way of killing John and looking blameless.

Bo and Hope’s room has been named "The Room of Eternal Love" after the love they obviously shared on their last visit. Hope takes a swim while Bo calls Billie, and a child tries to warn her that it is very dangerous as the undercurrents are very strong this summer. Bo panics when he learns this, but is ecstatic to see that Hope is on the beach unharmed. He embraces her emotionally. Back in Salem, Billie clutches her wedding ring as she goes to sleep. It falls out of her hand...

Austin and Carrie come across each other on the rooftop of their apartment block. Austin offers to leave her alone, but she tells him they must learn to co-exist.

Cast (in alphabetical order):
Jaime Lyn Bauer (Laura Horton), Tanya Boyd (Celeste), Jason Brooks (Peter Blake), Roark Critchlow (Mike Horton), Bryan Dattilo (Lucas Roberts), Eileen Davidson (Kristen DiMera), Pat Delany (the Lady in White), Carrie Genzel (Lisa), Vincent Guastaferro (Mac), Deidre Hall (Marlena Evans), Drake Hogestyn (John Black), Joseph Mascolo (Stefano DiMera), Thaao Penghlis (Tony DiMera), Melissa Reeves (Jennifer Horton), Michael Russo (Charles), Mark Valley (Jack Devereaux)

Mike tells Stefano they’ve done as much as they can for him and that he is to be discharged to a specialist facility. Marlena notes that he’s distracted during their therapy session and she mentions this to Celeste. Stefano tells Celeste that he deosn’t want to give up his sessions with Marlena and she tells him she thinks his bond with Marlena is preventing him from regaining his memory.

Laura finds it difficult to believe that John would have slashed the painting of the Lady in White. She is told all about the events in Aremid by Jennifer, Peter and Jack. Laura tells Jack he’s causing trouble, but he insists there is something wrong in Aremid and it has something to do with the Blakes. He thinks Stefano may be able to help him, and though she points out that he has amnesia at the moment, Laura agrees to take Jack to see him. Jack shows him a photograph of the slashed painting, but it means nothing to Stefano. Later, Jack admits to Laura that if he could trust Peter to look after Jennifer, he might be able to move on, but as it is, he can’t.

Mike tells Stefano that his memory is more likely to come back in bits and pieces rather than all at once. He tells him the specialist facility have a room available and that he will be transferred later on today. Marlena learns about this and questions Stefano’s readiness for such a move.

Peter and Jennifer speak to Celeste. She denies any knowledge of Aremid and says she’s never been there. She hounds Peter to visit Stefano but he won’t. She goes off and calls Mac, who reports that there’s no sign of "her" in Aremid. (He is referring to the Lady in White, who is standing behind him as he says this.) Meanwhile, Peter and Jennifer find a photograph of Celeste in Aremid.

Tony sends Charles to the library for some books on murder. He also orders that all of his appointments are cancelled and that all the service staff are to take a few days off while he stays in the house plotting John’s death. He realises that the best way to kill John without getting caught is to get somebody else to do it, and he knows just who it will be - Kristen.
