Chloe says her mom made dinner reservations for them at a restaurant, and she refused to take Chloe out with them. Chloe says she wanted to hug her dad goodbye as they were leaving for dinner, but she wasn't given that chance. Chloe says her mom grabbed her dad's hand and rushed out the door with him because she was in a hurry to get to the restaurant. However, Chloe says her dad did tell her that he loved her the last time she ever saw him. CHloe tells Brady that is that she never wants to say the words, or feel that way again.

Brady says the world doesn't work that way, and he uses his court case as an example. He says that he lost because the police force has too much power, and the cop who shot him in the back is still a cop and out abusing his power.

Note: This has NOT been proofed, and it was typed fairly quickly. Have been extremely busy with school stuff and friends all day. Sorry! John is driving to the DiMera mansion, wondering what Lexie is up to. At the DiMera mansion, Lexie is staring out the window and thinking. Rolfe asks her how things went with Hope. Lexie says that they had a long talk, and it couldn't have turned out better. Lexie tells Rolfe he won't have to do a thing to refresh Hope's memories of her past, she will do it all on her own. Lexie tells Rolfe that Hope is her friend, so she doesn't want any harm to come to her. Lexie says she just wants Hope to consume herself with the Gina thing that she doesn't think about the baby switch. However, Lexie says she still needs his and her father's help, she needs to give Hope bits of information to help Hope with her search. Suddenly, John shows up to see Lexie. Lexie asks John what he wants from her now? John says he wants to talk to her, and barges into her house. John tells Lexie that she is making herself a little too comfortable here, and he demands to know what she is up to. Lexie asks John if he is going to harass her now that he can't harass her father. John says this has nothing to do with Stefano, it has to do with Hope. John wants to know why she wants Hope to investigate her past? Lexie says if Hope wants to find out about her past, that is her business. John says like hell it is, he will decide what Hope does and does not know. Lexie accuses John of staking claim to his woman, but John says that is not the case. Lexie tells John that he is the last person Hope should be turning to. John warns Lexie to stay the hell out of Hope's life. Lexie tells John to get out of her home. John accuses Lexie of becoming a DiMera, and asks how she could do this to Abe and her son. Lexie tells John to get out, and not to come back until he can behave like a gentlemen. John tells her that she is just another pawn, and leaves. Lexie is pleased with herself, and thinks she has John and Hope so distracted they won't have time to think about her son. Lexie congratulates herself and says "Damn I'm good!" Rolfe comes out of the shadows and tells Lexie that she was brilliant! Meanwhile, John wonders what Stefano has done to Lexie. He says he has to get to Hope and end this madness once and for all.

At Salem Place, Hope tells Bo that she loves him so much. Bo asks if there is something else she needs to tell him? Hope says yes, whatever she finds out about herself as Gina, it won't change things. Hope tells Bo that JT will always be his son. Bo knows she's hiding something, and asks what is really on her mind. Hope avoids the subject by saying it is time for JTs naptime. Bo knows she is avoiding the subject. Hope recalls Marlena warning Hope that telling Bo the truth could ruin both their lives, and then she remembers Bo threatening to kill the man who raped Hope, and if he found out it was John, he'd kill him. Hope tells Bo that all she wanted to say was thank you for being so patient, loving, and supportive. Bo tells Hope not to keep secrets from him, whatever she finds she should tell him and he'll go to Europe to check it out, and while he's there, he'll check out Ireland. Hope accuses Bo of not wanting to help her, he's only using this as an excuse so he can go to Ireland. Bo tells Hope that now she knows how he feels about the secrets she's keeping from him. Hope says perhaps she just wanted to sort through things before talking to him, and she doesn't understand why he can't be more understanding. Hope tells Bo everything she is doing is for his own good, and whatever she finds out she'll tell him. Bo is beeped and has to go to the station, but he says this conversation is far from over. He tells Hope that her secrets are putting their marriage in serious jeopardy. Hope tells Bo that he is just upset, but Bo accuses Hope of breaking their wedding vows. Hope tells Bo that she loves him, but he refuses to let this go. Bo leaves, and Hope wonders what she is going to do.

Nicole and Victor are driving somewhere. Victor doesn't understand why Nicole feels this is necessary, he said he would protect her. Nicole says this is something she must do. Nicole winds up at the Front Street Diner to talk to Faye. They talk about Paul, and Fay says that Paul is gone. Nicole says she didn't think it would work. Fay asks Nicole what she did? Nicole tells her mom about her meeting with her dad. Nicole tells her mom that if Dad does come back, she wants her to call her. Nicole says that her mother could do that for her, she owes her. Faye agrees, and Nicole tells her mom to take control for one in her life and don't let that man back into her house or her life. Victor comes into the diner, as does Abe Carver. Abe wonders what Nicole and Victor are doing at the diner. Victor tells Nicole they needs to go, so they leave. However, Nicole remembers one more thing, and asks her mom about the can she and dad buried. Faye says she doesn't remember burying a can. Nicole finds this interesting and leaves. She tells Victor, who is not pleased. Victor says it's obvious this can is important to Paul. Nicole doesn't care, because he's left Salem, and that is all that matters. Victor fears his son or grandson could be in trouble from Paul, but Nicole doesn't think her dad would hurt kids. Victor isn't so sure.

Back in the diner, Abe asks Faye if she is okay, has Paul hurt her again? Faye says that Paul is gone, and she asks Abe if he is okay? Abe says no, and tells her about his troubles at the DiMera Mansion. He hates living there and feels that Lexie is changing, she's so moody. Fay suggests that perhaps Lexie is pregnant. Abe doubts that, because she would have told him, and he thinks it has something to do with Stefano. Faye says that Lexie has been through a lot lately, and things will probably settle down. Abe apologizes for dropping all of this on her, but she says she is here for him anytime. Suddenly, Abe gets a call from Bo, who wants to know why he just got paged. Abe says it was probably Simons, and he'll be heading back to the station. Bo then tells Abe about Hope and Lexie's meeting, and how Lexie is going to her father to help Hope. Abe is concerned, and Bo and Abe make plans to look into this.

Shawn says the clue was booby-trapped. Belle tells Shawn that this is too dangerous, and she wants him to stop. Mimi asks Shawn where the clue is? Shawn doesn't know, and Belle says it is a sign, fate's way of telling them to forget about this. Later, when Mimi and Belle go to get some dry clothes, Shawn tells Phillip that he saw the clue and it had Paul's name on it. Meanwhile, Paul looks at the first clue. The clue is a glass disk with Paul's name on it, as well as some numbers. Paul tries to figure it out, but he can't read enough of the clue.

Alice says that Jack is still in Salem and willing to work things out. Jen says Jack is still playing games, and says he is currently using Greta to make her jealous. Jen thinks Jack's plan could backfire, and Greta could develop feelings for Jack. Alice asks Jen if she would have a problem if Jack returned those feelings?

On the island, Paul tells Shawn and Phillip that if they keep asking him questions, he will turn this trip into their worst nightmare! Paul says that he only stayed to help them, so they should be grateful. Shawn asks why his name was on the second clue? Could it be he was the one who stole the ruby in the first place? Paul says if he stole the ruby he wouldn't need a map or these clues to find it. Phillip tells SHawn that Paul is right, and he did save his life. Paul says Phillip is right, and Shawn says he's sorry, but if he knew his great-gran, then he'd know why he is so determined to get the ruby back. Paul asks them if he is in or out of their little treasure hunt? Shawn says he is in, but the clue has been lost.
