John tells Stefano that he remembers he and Gina stole paintings for him, he remembers that he was his soldier, and he remembers how he was his friend. Stefano asks what he's going to do with these memories? John says he's documented them on a computer, and eventually they will all fit together to spell out his guilt. Stefano says just because he types some phantom memories on a computer does he really think that the authorities will believe them? John says he's not planning to take them to the authorities, he has left instructions that if anything happens to him then the disk will be forwarded to his daughter Alexandra! John tells him "checkmate!" Stefano asks John what he wants?

Marlena is confused about John's concern for Hope. She asks him why he is consumed with Hope remembering her past? John says if Hope remembers she can convict Stefano, but Marlena gets the feeling that he doesn't want Hope to remember her past. John says she is correct, he doesn't want her to remember because if she learned the truth about the baby, it could drive her over the edge. Marlena says the real question is, does Stefano have a way to keep Hope from remembering the past. John doesn't know if DiMera can prevent her from remembering. Marlena asks what his plan is?

At the DiMera Mansion, Stefano tells Rolfe that he doesn't have a plan to deal with John just yet because Hope and her unborn child are more important to him right now.

Rolfe says there is another reason he must make sure Hope doesn't remember, the baby! Stefano agrees and says that Hope can't know Bo is not the father of her baby. Stefano asks Rolfe what the chances are that Hope's memories will return? Rolfe says it is possible, but improbable. Stefano reminds him that he didn't think she'd remember being Hope, but she did. Still, Rolfe doesn't think Hope will remember, and if she was to remember it probably would have happened when she got her memories of Hope back. Stefano asks Rolfe how he can be sure? Rolfe says that there is a way, but they will have to do one more thing to her. He says he needs to get her into the lab and scan the chip in her head, but he can't do that while she is pregnant because it could spell disaster for the baby. Stefano hopes that Hope won't remember before then, and that nothing must happen to his child. Rolfe reminds him that the child could be John Black's. Stefano says that is true, and he knows what he has to do. He says that with Lexie's help, he will know if Hope's child is his or not.

Bo says that he's having conflicting feelings about the baby because he's worried about what it will do to her health and her life. Bo says they are in this life together. Hope asks if they are in this pregnancy together? Bo says of course they are, and gives her a kiss on the forehead.
