In the Paris countryside, Eric and Greta are on the verge of kissing when John calls Eric. John tells him that he has gotten all the paperwork for the exhumation done and he's coming up from Paris now. Greta says they should probably get back to the castle, so they start packing up the picnic basket. Greta sees that Eric is a bit down and asks what is wrong? Eric says he's just thinking about all the grief he has given John over the years about his relationship with his mother. Greta says they all make mistakes and that John has forgiven him, so he needs to forgive himself. Eric thanks her and tells her that she always knows how to pick him up. Greta says she learned it from her mother, and then begins to think about how her mother looked last night. Eric tells her that was just a nightmare.
At the castle, Princess GIna is still puffing away at her cigarette and looking at the picture of Greta. Kurt brings her some fresh flowers, but Gina says fresh flowers won't do a damn thing for her. She tells Kurt that Stefano has robbed her of John and Greta's love. Kurt asks Gina what the last thing she remembers before coming here? Gina tells him that she remembers being at Maison Blanche. Flashback time! Stefano tells a youthful looking Gina that he has asked Rolfe to help her, he will perform a procedure to help remove these mood swings she is going through. Back in the present, Gina tells Kurt that Stefano might as well have killed her. However, one day soon he will regret that he did not! Gina tells Kurt that Stefano stole her entire being during the procedure. Kurt asks if something could have gone wrong during the procedure, but Gina says Stefano never makes mistakes. Flashback time again. Gina remembers hearing Stefano tells Rolfe to get Hope Williams ready for the procedure, he wants the change to be seamless. Kurt asks Gina who Hope Williams is, and what does she have to do with the procedure? Gina says she doesn't know, she just remember Stefano telling Rolfe to get her. Gina says the next thing she remembers is being here. Gina looks at her picture of Greta, but Kurt says he must return the picture to Greta before she notices it is gone. Gina gives it to him and says when they are reunited she wants to look like she did in this photograph. Kurt leaves, and Gina looks out the window and sees Eric and Greta returning. She says that one day Greta will look at her and smile, not scream.
Kurt returns the picture to Greta's room and finds the invitation to the Duke and Duchess ball in honor of Gina. Eric and Greta return, and Greta is shocked to see him in her room. Eric asks him what he thinks he is doing in Greta's room? Kurt says he just brought fresh flowers, and leaves. Greta sees the photo is back, and Eric thinks that maybe Kurt took it. Eric wonders why Kurt is so intent on them leaving, what is he afraid that they will find?
Kurt returns to Gina's room and asks if she knows the Duke and Duchess of Haraman? Gina says they are close friends, and wants to know why he is asking? He says that they are throwing a party in her honor.
At a restaurant, Julie asks Bo if he and Hope are going to marry here in Paris? Doug offers to make arrangements to bring Alice over, but Bo says that is not it. Bo says he wants to marry Hope, but she is gone and they have to get her back first. They think that Hope is missing literally, but Bo tells them it is not what they think. Bo explains to them that when Hope was missing those four years they thought she was dead, Stefano changed her into Princess Gina Von Amburg. He tells them that Stefano has once again changed her back into Princess Gina. Doug wants to know what is going on, so Bo tells them to sit down so they can talk. Bo explains everything to them, and they are furious. Bo tells them that Hope thinks she is Gina, but she still has all of Hope's memories. Doug asks Julie what they can do to help bring Hope back? Bo is glad they asked, and then explains what he wants them to do. We are treated to a flashback in which Doug gave a very young Hope a baby blanket that her mom knitted for her when she was pregnant. Doug tells her that she loved this blanket, and thought that maybe her baby (Shawn D) would like it too. Hope tells Doug that she loves it and gives him a kiss. Doug wishes he and Hope had remained closer, but Julie says they are here for her now, that is all that counts. Bo suggests they go see Hope now, but warns them that she won't jump for joy when she sees them. As they get up, Bo is hit by another dizzy spell, but attributes it to lack of sleep.
At the Paris house, Gina is still in tears from John's rejection. She screams "Damn you Stefano!" Gina begins to remember Bo warning her that she would go insane or end up dead like the real Gina, and then she hears John telling her that he will never love her. Gina covers her ears with her hands and screams "No, No, Stop!" When the voices stop, Gina guzzles down some champagne and then makes a call to Bo's room. Unfortunately he is not there, and she doesn't leave a message. She tells herself that she wishes Bo was here, for some unknown reason she feels safer when he is around. Gina says she wants Bo's help, but she wants to live as Gina, not Hope. As she rubs her head, GIna says she cannot live without John anymore. She also tells herself that she will not let herself go mad like the real Gina. Gina wonders how she and John can escape from Stefano, and then remembers the letter. She once again begins to ransack the place searching for the letter. Gina wonders if the letter is at the castle, and decides to go there. As she is thinking about leaving, someone arrives at her door. She thinks it is probably Stefano, and is shocked when she finds Bo, Doug, and Julie standing on her doorstep.

Austin steps out of the pool and when Sami goes to get him a towel, she finds him talking to Carrie. Austin is surprised that Carrie is here, and Sami asks "You were invited?" Carrie asks if that is a problem, and Austin tells her no. Carrie says she doesn't want to ruin the party, when suddenly a drunk Nicole comes up behind her, puts her arm around her, and says she couldn't ruin the party because this is her party. Nicole tells Carrie to grab a drink and hit the buffet, so Carrie does just that. Austin excuses himself from Sami to be with Carrie, which upsets her. Austin tells Carrie that they need to talk, so they head off. Brandon tells a worried Sami that it is not what she is thinking, and that not even a divorce agreement can break their bond. Austin tells Carrie that he wants to put everything behind them and remain friends. Carrie tells him that she could use a friend right now. Austin asks what is going on? Carrie tells him that Mike left town. Carrie explains what happened with Mike, and how she doesn't know if she'll ever see Mike again. Austin is shocked and says he thought they had their whole lives mapped out together. Carrie apologizes to Austin for laying this on him after what she did to him. She says Mike also feels terrible about what he did, and that is one of the reasons he left. Austin says that maybe there is hope for him after all, and Carrie says maybe it is a good sign. Carrie tells Austin that this is strange talking to him life this. Austin says it is strange, and tells Carrie that he doesn't hate her. He says he wants to move on with his life, and is happy here with Will. Carrie asks if he is happy with Sami as well? Austin says that he and Sami are good friends, and he is used to living with Sami. Carrie says she is glad he has her to help him through this transition period. Austin asks if anyone is helping her?

At the castle in Paris, Greta wonders why Kurt took the picture from her dresser. Eric says Kurt is crafty, and that they don't need his help. Greta thinks about digging her mother up and says it sounds like something out of a horror film. John soon shows up at the castle and Greta welcomes him with a hug. John tells them that he's cut through the red tape, but dealing with the bureaucrats will take a couple of days. John promises Greta that he will have Gina exhumed and an autopsy performed on her. Eric asks if he remembers anything by being here, but John doesn't. Greta asks him if he has seen "Hope" and how she is? John says that Hope is under Stefano's control, she is Princess GIna once again. Later, Greta tells John that she saw her mother, but Eric says it was a dream. Greta insists it wasn't a dream, and she explains everything that happened when her mother visited her, how she looked old and scary. Eric says they have been hearing a lot of ghost stories about Gina, but Greta says she knows it was real because her mother touched her. John tells Greta that he thinks she might have been dreaming as well, but Greta is positive that what happened to her was real. Greta and Eric give John a tour of the castle, and when he sees the portrait of Gina in her room he lets out a "woah!" Greta asks him what is wrong, is he remembering something? John says it is more of a feeling, and he tells Greta that he feels her vision. Eric asks what he is feeling? John says he feels that Gina is very close, eerily close, to them right now. John looks through Gina's closet and smells her clothes, which gives him an overpowering feeling. John swears that Gina is in this castle, and Greta says she feels the same way. Eric suggests they go to the front of the house so they can hear the authorities when they ring. John says that is a good idea because he needs to know the truth as badly as Greta does.
In the tower, Kurt is unhappy that Gina is not eating her food. Gina says she needs to be with her daughter, but Kurt tells her that is not possible. Gina becomes upset and yells "So you keep saying!" Gina tells Kurt to hell with him and his pronouncements, she will make it possible. She swears to Kurt that she will hold her daughter in her arms again. Kurt asks her to trust him, she doesn't always think too clearly, she gets confused. Gina asks Kurt what she is confused about? Kurt says she is confused about her daughter and her daughter's reaction to her. He tells her that she can't go to Greta looking the way she does, which is why she has to trust him. Kurt tells her that her food has grown cold, so she will prepare her something else to eat. Kurt grabs her tray and leaves. Gina looks in the mirror and sees herself as the young and beautiful woman she once was. She hears a young Greta telling her that she wants to be as beautiful as her when she grows up, and then she hears an adult Greta screaming. In the mirror, Gina's youthful image fades. She says that Kurt is right, she can't see her precious baby looking like she does now. Gina ends up trashing a portrait of John, and then quickly begins another painting. However, this is a painting of a sleeping Greta. Kurt returns with a hot meal for Gina, and looks at her sketch. He is amazed that she remembers Greta so well. Gina says that the image is burned into her brain. Kurt tells her that she is beautiful. Gina says yes, but I am not. Gina is sad because she has lost the two people she loves most in this world, Greta and John. Gina says that she knows now that John is not coming back for her. Kurt picks up the portrait of John that Gina threw across the room, and Gina tells him to throw it away because she can't stand to look at it when there is no hope of his returning. Kurt leaves with the painting, and Gina talks to her portrait of Greta. She says that she is so close, but so far away. However, she is not as far away as the man that she loves, the man she'll never see again. Gina tells herself that John will never come for her, so she must focus on Greta.
Downstairs, John makes some calls and the exhumation is scheduled to begin shortly. John tells Eric and Greta that he isn't looking forward to this, and he wonders what surprise lie out there for them, or in here.
At the Paris house, Gina/Hope answers the door, thinking it is Stefano, so she plans to be rude to him to make him go away. She opens the door and blows smoke in someone's face, Julie's! Gina is shocked to find Bo, Doug, and Julie on her doorstep. She asks them what they are doing here? Julie just laughs, and Doug gives her a big hug. Bo, Doug, and Julie walk in and Julie quickly snatches Gina's cigarette away from her and says "there, better!" Doug asks when she started smoking? Bo says she just has one every once in a while, and Gina says it relaxes her. Julie tells her that it does the opposite, Nicotine is a stimulate, it zaps your energy, and makes you sick as a dog! Bo pats Julie on the shoulder to calm her down, and Doug says they should concentrate on their reunion. Bo suggests they all sit down and make themselves comfortable, so they do. Doug asks how his princess is doing, and Gina quickly snaps "Why in the hell would you call me that?" Doug tells her that is his petname for her, he says it with affection! Gina apologizes and says she is overly sensitive these days. She says she wishes she knew they were coming, she is so busy and doesn't know how much time she can devote to them. Gina reminds Bo about the party, but Bo suggests Doug and Julie joining them. Doug says that they can talk about that later, and Gina asks them how long are they staying? Julie gives her an evil look, and Gina says she doesn't mean to be rude but they did intrude on her unannounced. Doug asks why she doesn't want to see them, and Julie asks what she is afraid of? Gina knows this isn't a casual visit, Bo called them. Julie wants to be straight and tells Gina that they are here because Bo asked them to be here because he is concerned about her. Gina says she is fine dammit, and turns her back to them. Doug tells her that she is very different, she is not herself. Gina says they haven't seen her for awhile, and she has been under a lot of stress. The phone rings and Gina answers it. As she is talking, Bo tells Doug and Julie that it is probably Stefano on the phone. Gina tells whoever it is that she will take care of it as soon as possible and hangs up on them. Doug tells Hope that they got a wonderful letter from Alice the other day, Shawn D is moving back home and will do his senior year and Salem High. Doug says that it seems like yesterday she was that age. Bo says Shawn D is coming home this weekend. Gina tells him to go home to Salem and be with him, but Bo refuses to leave her. She says she isn't his co-dependant wife anymore, she can take care of herself. She wonders why in hell they are all here? Julie tells her that they are here because they love her, she means the world to them and want to be with her, is that too much to ask? Later, Bo serves them all ice tea, and Julie tells Gina that her father has been signing professionally again. Gina says "how exciting" without any enthusiasm. Julie remembers when Doug used to sing to Hope at Doug's place. DOug says those are his favorite memories. Doug tells her that when he sings now, he always dedicates one to her. He says that he introduces the song by telling the audience that he has an exceptional daughter, who is not only beautiful, but has a kind heart. He goes on to say that she is the light of his life, and being a father to her made him want to be a better man. Finally, he says that along with Julie, his daughter is the best thing that ever happened to him. Julie tells Doug to sing the song for his daughter. Doug turns to his daughter, lifts her head up with his hand under her chin, and sings to her. He sings "You must have been a beautiful baby" to her (I think that is the name of the song). As he sings, Gina remembers flashes from Hope's life. Julie is moved to tears, and one tear streams down Gina's face. Doug tells "Hopie" that he knows she hasn't forgotten all those memories, and inside Gina's mind Hope's voice cries out "Daddy please help me!" Gina blurts out loud "Help me!"
At the pool, Carrie and Austin are the only ones left hanging out. Austin is telling her a story about how Will stuck caterpillars in the butter case in the refrigerator because he thought it would make them turn into butterflies. Sami comes out to go to the guest house and is surprised to see Carrie is still here. Sami tells Austin that Will can't get to sleep, he wants Austin to read the caterpillar book to him. Carrie says she better go, but Austin says this won't take long and she can stick around. Sami says that Carrie probably wants to get back to Mike. Austin and Carrie exchange glances, and Austin tells Sami that Mike left town. Sami asks what do you mean, and Carrie says that Mike went to visit his son. Sami then asks if she is going to meet them in Israel? Carrie and Austin look at one another, and Sami wants to know what they are keeping from her. Austin decides to let Carrie handle this and goes to check on Will. Carrie tells Sami that Mike needed time alone, and she doesn't know when he is coming back. Sami doesn't understand why they aren't together when it was what they both wanted. Carrie says she knows, and she hopes it doesn't mess up her future plans. Carrie wants to know why she is in such a hurry to get her out of the country. Sami says that she just thought she wanted to be with Mike. Carrie says her life has completely changed this year and she doesn't know where she wants to be. Sami wonders if Carrie has decided that she wants Austin back? Carrie can't believe this and she doesn't know why she bothers with her, she has no clue what it is like being in a relationship. Sami says she does know what love is, and then starts talking about when she and Austin were on the run. Carrie tells her not to confuse compassion with love. Sami becomes angry and accuses her of showing up here to hurt Austin. She thinks that Carrie came here because Austin is finally getting over her, and she can't stand it that Austin is moving on. Sami informs Carrie that Austin is going back to boxing, which he didn't tell her because his future does not concern her anymore. Carrie lets out an Ahhhh and says "But it does concern you, right?" Sami says that Austin started sharing his feelings with her about the same time she started sharing her feelings with Mike. Carrie tells Sami not to count on Austin falling in love with her. Sami says that at least she knows he's over her. Carrie asks if she believes that, why is she so worried? Carrie tells Sami to tell Austin good night, and leaves. Austin returns and asks where Carrie is? Sami only says that she left. Austin says it was good to have a few laughs today.
In the mansion, Kate talks to Ruth on the phone, who is extremely pleased with how Nicholas has handled her account and that she will be renewing her contract with Titan. After the call, Billie walks into the room in a very tight white dress. Kate takes one look at her and asks where she is going dressed like that? Billie doesn't understand what she means and says that white is one of her best colors. Kate says that she wasn't talking about the color, she was talking about the image. Billie says that she thinks she looks great, and she is sure Nicholas will think so too. Kate comments that he certainly doesn't waste much time. Billie asks her mom if she has a problem with her seeing Nicholas? Kate says she doesn't have a problem with it, but she works with him and is involved with Roman. Billie tells her mom that she and Roman aren't seeing much of them anymore, they both got over loosing the ones they really loved. Billie looks in a mirror and puts on a scarf. She tells her mom that she is excited to go out with a man under thirty. She sees the look on her mom's face and apologizes for what she said, age never mattered to her and Victor. Kate tells Billie not to talk about Victor in the past tense, they will be getting married as soon as possible.

Billie fiddles with the scarf for a bit, but eventually decides to ditch the idea all together. Kate is browsing through her scrap book and looking at her "wedding" photos. Kate pours herself a drink and says that as soon as Victor is recovered, they will be married and neither Sami nor Vivian can separate them. Billie decides to go upstairs and change into something a little less revealing, and asks her mom to entertain Nicholas if he shows up early.
At the home, Nicholas drops by to see Victor. Victor isn't in a good mood and says this is not a good time for a visit. Nicholas tells him not to let minor set backs get him down, but Victor says he was supposed to be home by now, not stuck in a wheel chair. Victor tells Nicholas that he has no idea what that is like, but Nicholas says he also doesn't know what it is like to have a woman like Kate to love him. Victor wishes he could love Kate back, it has been years now. Nicholas says that Kate is not complaining, her life is all about him and her love for him. Nicholas tells Victor to fight for his family, and he hopes the present he brought him will help. Victor looks in the bag Nicholas brought and asks him if this is his idea of a joke? Nicholas pulls a laptop out of the bag and tells Victor that this laptop is different, it is one controlled by voice command. Nicolas tells him that with this laptop he can actively participate in Titan once again. Nicholas turns it on and sits it on a table in the room. He then pulls out an old photo of him, Vivian, and Victor. This photo was taken on one of their sailing trips, which they both remember. Victor asks Nicholas why he is doing this for him? Nicholas says he was there for him when he was a kid, so this is his way of repaying him. Nicholas hopes they can continue these visits, and he wants to help him get home as quick as possible because he is sorely missed. Victor wonders what he gets out of this, and Nicholas says he gets to work with a legend. Nicholas shows Victor how to boot the computer up, but says he has to go because he has a date with a beautiful woman tonight. Victor says that he's heard he is widely admired.

Victor says it is all about finding the right woman, for him it is Kate.
Back at the mansion, Nicholas sneaks up on Kate, Billie is still upstairs changing. Kate says Henderson is supposed to announce her guests, she will have to have a talk with him.

Nicholas acts crushed, and Kate reminds him that he is here to take out Billie, not her. Kate decides to leave and spend some time with Phillip. Before she leaves, Nicholas tells her that he thinks will work out for her and Victor.

Belle knows she won't be going out with him, but she can work with him at the hospital.
Belle walks downstairs just as Carrie was telling Marlena that Sami thinks she wants Austin back. Belle says it is true isn't it, you do want Austin back don't you? Belle says she doesn't want to take sides, but it looked like she was going after Austin tonight. Carrie says that is not true, they were trying to get past the anger. Belle says that they should get one with their lives, and Carrie says that is what they are trying to do. Belle wishes she'd tell that to Sami because she is worried. When Carrie says that is none of Sami's business, Belle points out that Sami is living with Austin. Carrie quickly replies "Only for Will's sake, Sami and Austin are not involved." Belle just replies with whatever you say. Marlena tells her that it is time for her to go to bed. Belle asks if this is a private conversation? Marlena says no, she is always welcomed to speak, but not argue. Belle says all she wants is Sami to be happy, and Carrie says she wants the same, but Austin isn't interested in Sami, not after the hell she put them through. Belle says Austin has already forgiven Sami, but Carrie says it is too soon for Austin to get involved, she doesn't want to see him hurt. Belle doesn't think that Sami couldn't possibly hurt Austin more than she has. Marlena tells Carrie that she should go back to her job at the hospital. Carrie says she will think about it and thanks her. Belle says she will be working at the hospital as well. Marlena thinks it would be wonderful if they could all work at the hospital.
