00:07Thanks again for, uh, meeting me.
00:10Of course.
00:11Although I'm surprised that we're now meeting a Tamara.
00:14What are they, uh, having your office painted or something?
00:19Actually, I wouldn't know, seeing as it's not my office anymore.
00:26Not your office?
00:28What do you mean?
00:30I'm leaving, Demira.
00:52Stephanie.
00:54Are you busy? I can come back another time.
00:57No, this is fine.
00:59I'm happy to take a break.
01:02Please, come in.
01:09So, what can I do for you?
01:12I'm, uh, I'm here about the advance for my next book.
01:15Look, I, I already missed the deadline to submit my proposal to Kate, so I can't accept this check.
01:24I can't take money for work I haven't done.
01:28And won't, uh, so stay strong, my darling Rachel, know that I am always here for you.
01:44Love, Grandma, love, Grandma Marlena.
01:47Love, Grandma Marlena.
02:12Hey, boy, I can see you right now.
02:14I will be right there.
02:15I'll be right back.
02:16Bye.
02:16Come back.
02:21Come back.
02:24Thanks, Sarah.
02:26Let's see.
02:26Bye.
02:28Bye.
02:29Bye.
02:30Bye.
02:33Bye.
02:35Bye.
02:35Bye.
02:37Bye.
02:38Bye.
02:40Bye.
02:41Bye.
02:43Bye.
02:44Oh, that's great. I was really worried about her after I visited her in the hospital.
02:48She was pretty open with me about everything she's been feeling since she was rescued,
02:53and I encouraged her to be open with you, too.
02:57She did talk to you, right?
03:02No. Honestly, Chanel, she hasn't really been open with me about anything lately.
03:11What did she say to you? Please tell me. I need to know that.
03:21Remo, it's so great to see you.
03:24What, did you miss me?
03:26Yeah, kind of. No, of course.
03:29Well, what are you doing back in Salem?
03:31Well, my leave of absence from the fire department is coming to an end,
03:34and I got a message from the chief wondering if I needed to be replaced,
03:39or if I could come back to cover an upcoming maternity leave.
03:43So, here I am.
03:45Yeah.
03:46So you've just been staying over here for a while.
03:49Well, since my dad is doing really well right now,
03:53I agreed to come back to the department full-time.
03:57So, yeah, baby, I'm here for good.
04:03And I just, I really hope that my room is still vacant.
04:07Yeah.
04:09No, of course it is.
04:10But why didn't you let us know that you were coming back to Salem?
04:17Because I was afraid that you'd tell me not to.
04:31Like sand through the hourglass,
04:34so are the days of our lives.
04:48Why would we have told you not to come back?
04:51We really missed you, Gabby.
04:53She goes on and on about how the house is too quiet without you.
04:57Well, you know, as nice as that is to hear,
05:00that's not what I meant.
05:01I thought that you and Gabby would want to keep me away from Leo.
05:06Oh, well, yeah, sure.
05:09We don't want you to get hurt again, but...
05:13About what?
05:14But don't look now, but Leo is right behind you.
05:18Oh, my God, please don't let him see me.
05:21Listen, I am sure that this town is big enough for the both of you.
05:26Yeah, baby.
05:29Alex, what Stephanie told me was in confidence,
05:32and I thought that she told you,
05:36otherwise I wouldn't have mentioned it.
05:38I'm just trying to help her.
05:41You know, that is all,
05:42and I can't do that if I don't know what the hell is going on.
05:47I will not tell her that we talked.
05:50Alex, I...
05:51Chanel, please, I am truly worried about her.
05:59Okay.
06:02Well, um...
06:03She just told me that she's, uh...
06:08She's feeling pretty down about herself,
06:10and, like, she can't trust her own decisions,
06:14and she blames herself for everything that happened to her,
06:18all the bad stuff,
06:18and, well, um, she said that she's, uh...
06:23I think wreck was the word she used.
06:28Oh, my God.
06:31Alex, you really had no idea that she was feeling that way?
06:36No, I didn't.
06:38Not really, because, I mean,
06:39obviously she's determined to seem so strong in front of me.
06:44She's acting like she's able to handle all of this okay on her own,
06:48but she just won't let me in.
06:51I don't understand why.
06:54Look,
06:55if you're worried about Titan being in financial straits,
06:58that is not an issue anymore.
07:01Okay?
07:03Xander worked some magic
07:04and was able to pay off the latest loan installment,
07:07which has bought us a little time.
07:11So,
07:12keep the check.
07:14Please.
07:20And why are you looking so sad, Steph?
07:22What's going on?
07:25Maybe you didn't hear me just now, Phillip.
07:29I said I can't accept a check for work I haven't done.
07:34Yeah, I heard that, but...
07:35And won't ever do.
07:37Did you hear that part?
07:42So, what are you saying?
07:45I'm saying that
07:47I'm not just going to be late on my next proposal.
07:53There won't be one.
07:56Or another book.
07:59I'm not going to write anymore.
08:02I need you to release me from my contract.
08:11I'm here.
08:12I'm here.
08:14I'm here.
08:34Take breath and calm down.
08:38It's not helping.
08:39I don't feel any calmer.
08:40Do it again.
08:41It'll help.
08:42Okay.
08:48Now, last time I saw you, you were recovering from a concussion.
08:53Do you think that might have caused this?
08:56No. No, it's not my head, Dr. Evans. It's my heart.
09:03You're leaving, Damara?
09:05Yeah. But just yesterday, we were discussing a partnership between our two companies.
09:13Did something happen at work? Have the other Damaras been giving you a hard time?
09:17Oh. Nothing like that, and, uh, I'd rather not talk about it.
09:26Okay. Well, I'm not gonna pressure you to explain.
09:36But since you know my deepest, darkest secret, I'm sure you know that you can trust me.
09:43If you do want to talk about it, I'm here for you.
09:49Mm-hmm.
09:57Alex, I'm sure that Stephanie will open up to you about how she's feeling in her own time.
10:03She just probably doesn't want to worry you.
10:08Yeah. You're probably right.
10:12Thank you for always being so supportive.
10:17And I'm sorry, by the way, about the whole Titan coming after Damara and Johnny with the whole plagiarism lawsuit.
10:24Dude, I was just talking to Philip about how blindsided we were by that entire thing.
10:29The rumor's true.
10:31Is Johnny gonna be the new Damara CEO for good?
10:36Yes, yes, the rumors are true.
10:40It's a done deal, in fact.
10:43How do you feel about that?
10:46Not so great.
10:54You know, I hope you know that whatever you tell me stays between us.
10:59I do know that.
11:01But like I said, I'd rather not talk about it.
11:07Anyway, I turned in my full proposal to Johnny, and I asked him if he would honor it.
11:13So if you have any questions, reach out to him.
11:17Although I doubt you will.
11:20Why wouldn't I?
11:22Considering your past experience with Damara Enterprises and the family that started it,
11:29and now your current connection to one of the CEOs of Titan,
11:33it just seems more likely that you'll partner with Philip's company rather than ours.
11:40You are underestimating my desire to make sure that Gabby Sheik gets the best possible deal.
11:46And that could be Titan or Damara, regardless of who's running which company.
11:53So I'm not automatically choosing Titan just because Philip and I are involved in moving in together.
12:07So Leo is back from Elamania.
12:10He is, yeah.
12:13Andrew Donovan brought him back to the States for treatment.
12:17Treatment for what?
12:20An assassin tried to take out him and Dimitri.
12:23Oh, my God. Is he okay?
12:24He's okay.
12:25All he got was a concussion, and apparently last night they let him out of the hospital.
12:33Look, I'm sorry.
12:35I am sorry for not telling you that he and Dimitri went to Elamania.
12:39I just didn't want to hurt you.
12:41And then later on I realized that it was probably going to hurt you more to find out from Leo.
12:46It's okay.
12:48I don't have to apologize.
12:50Because what really hurt was being left hanging for months without having a clear answer as to whether he loved
12:57me and only me.
12:58Only to find out that Leo knew the answer all along.
13:03Yeah.
13:04Well, maybe not.
13:12So there we were, in bed, and then I suddenly pulled away from Dimitri and I told him I couldn't
13:17do it.
13:17Which he thought meant I couldn't do it.
13:19I could do it.
13:21That's not what I meant.
13:22But I pulled away from him because suddenly my emotions took over, and I finally had an answer to the
13:28question that has been haunting me for months.
13:30Do I want to be with Dimitri?
13:31Do I want to be with Javi?
13:34And you chose Dimitri?
13:36No, no, no, no, no.
13:38I chose Javi.
13:39It's always been Javi.
13:40But I obviously repressed those feelings because I deeply and cosmically convinced myself, as you well know, Dr. Evans, that
13:48Leo Stark does not deserve a happy ending.
13:51And now, I've been deleted from his life like an embarrassing tweet.
13:58All these months of wringing my hands, trying to make a decision, and it has cost me the love of
14:04my life.
14:05Oh, if only...
14:09If only what?
14:12If only I'd behaved like my old self.
14:16Basically a one-man show called, Is He Breathing? Then Good Enough.
14:20Because then I would have jumped into bed with Dimitri right away, and I'd have an answer right away on
14:25Javi's and my wedding night, and then Javi and I would still be married.
14:35So you're giving up writing?
14:40I won't ask you why.
14:42It's none of my business.
14:44But I'm sure you know my mother will not take the news very well.
14:48Yeah.
14:49Of course she won't.
14:51And I'm so sorry, Philip.
14:53I don't want to cause any problems.
14:55Hey.
14:57You have to take care of yourself.
14:59That's the most important thing.
15:02And don't worry about my mother, either.
15:03I can handle her.
15:06And I'll see to a legal brings up a mutual recession memo to get you released from your contract.
15:13Thank you so much.
15:17Sure.
15:20And hey, I'm sorry for what you've been through.
15:25What you're obviously still going through.
15:30I'm sure the thought of telling someone's love story, digging into all those emotions, would be an upsetting thing for
15:39you to deal with right now.
15:45Maybe someday I'll get back to it.
15:49But right now, the idea of telling someone else's love story, digging into that emotion, the joy, and the pain,
16:04I just can't do it anymore.
16:12Oh, my God.
16:15You already knew that I was coming here to do this.
16:19Alex told you.
16:21Didn't he?
16:35Alex and I talked.
16:36Don't try to deny it.
16:38Philip, you just said exactly what I told him, nearly verbatim.
16:43Alex came to see you, didn't he?
16:45To tell you that I was giving up my writing career.
16:51Yes, he did.
16:53And if I'm being fully transparent, I already spoke to legal.
16:59I'm sorry.
17:01I just wanted to make it easier on you.
17:04So did Alex.
17:05I'm sure he didn't mean to go behind your back.
17:07Of course he meant to go behind my back.
17:10Because he doesn't think that I'm up to handling any of this on my own.
17:15That is insulting as hell.
17:19And it's not true.
17:21I am a strong and resilient person.
17:24I will not be treated like some helpless victim.
17:28You are definitely not that.
17:30You are strong and resilient.
17:34And I hate that I was complicit in making you feel that you were shortchanged in any way.
17:44It's not your fault.
17:47You were just doing what Alex asked you, too.
17:53And thank you for being so understanding and for offering to deal with your mother.
18:02Now I need to go deal with Alex.
18:06So then Johnny and I decided that it was best to probably just stop trying to fight the inevitable
18:14and let E.J. back in our lives.
18:17But on our terms.
18:20Well, you never can be too careful with E.J.
18:23It is hard to blame him, though.
18:26For not wanting to give up on his family.
18:28I mean, who wouldn't want to be involved with this little guy?
18:32Well, hey, if you and Stephanie ever want to get in some practice before you start a family of your
18:36own,
18:36you can borrow him.
18:37Oh, you can borrow him?
18:38Mm-hmm.
18:39Maybe instead of borrowing him, Stephanie and I could just, I don't know, babysit
18:43whenever you and Johnny need a break or, I don't know, you don't got anybody else.
18:47Okay, well, you know what?
18:48You better mean that because I might take you up on it.
18:55You and Philip are moving in together?
18:59Yeah.
19:00He's going back to the Kiriakis estate and invited me to be his roommate.
19:04Oh.
19:05I didn't realize you guys were wronged yet, though.
19:09Moving in stage.
19:12Well, things have been going really well for us.
19:16So I just felt like the next logical step.
19:19And has this next step affected whether you'll tell Philip or not about your secret?
19:27No, absolutely not.
19:30Philip can never know what I did.
19:33What about the just...
19:36just keeps getting away at you?
19:40I won't.
19:42I won't let it.
19:45You know what?
19:47I think you and I need an excuse to just relax and have fun.
19:52So, are you and Jada free tonight by any chance?
19:58We are.
19:59We were just talking about earlier what we are going to do tonight.
20:04Great.
20:06And I think it's a sign.
20:10Of course it is.
20:13No, I mean, it's a sign for that long overdue trivia night that we've been talking about.
20:22That's like a plan.
20:25Sounds like a plan.
20:29Wait, you think that Leo didn't have the answers?
20:32Why would you say that?
20:34Look, it's probably it for me to put in a good word about Leo Stark,
20:38but I don't think him choosing between you and Von Leuchner was as easy as a walk in a park.
20:45In fact, I think that he's been kind of depressed lately.
20:53Did Dimitri come back to Salem with him?
20:57No, they didn't come back together.
21:00But the Alamanian authorities tried to detain him at first.
21:05He's here now.
21:07Well, what about the Demir kidnapping charges against him?
21:13Leo and Dimitri managed to clear his name.
21:16Right.
21:18Well, it seems like things are going pretty smoothly for those two.
21:24And you know what?
21:25Since Leo has definitely moved on, it allows me to feel free to do the same.
21:35Oh, Dr. Evans.
21:37Not only did I keep him in limbo so long and needed a zip code,
21:41but I lied about being in Alamania with Dimitri.
21:43And that, that was the emotional Jenga block that took down the whole tower.
21:49And now he's gone, which is probably for the best,
21:52because even if he did forgive me, even if he did think I was still worth loving,
21:57I would just end up hurting him again.
22:00You can't think like that.
22:02That's just negative self-talk.
22:05It's negative, yes, but it's not just self-talk.
22:08It's what Dimitri told me before he left.
22:10And he's absolutely right.
22:21Hey, you two.
22:23Hi, Chanel.
22:24Hey, baby.
22:26Oh, my goodness.
22:28Ray.
22:29He's getting so big.
22:31Oh, no, and he's dying to see his favorite uncle.
22:34What a cutie.
22:36Okay, well, I will leave you three to it, and I will see you later tonight.
22:41See you then.
22:51So, Johnny is taking over your position at DiMera.
22:57Yeah.
22:58He is.
23:00And why are you leaving, Theo?
23:03The real reason.
23:17Exactly what did Dimitri say to you before he left?
23:21He said, among some other very nasty things,
23:25you're damaged goods, Leo.
23:26You're never going to find happiness now.
23:28I was your last chance, and you blew it,
23:31and this was the biggest mistake of your life.
23:36Was he twisting his mustache when he said it?
23:40I bet he would have been if he had one.
23:43What did I ever see in him?
23:45I mean, besides the whole tall, dark, handsome, mesmerizing, virile, whole package thing.
23:51God, I'm such a shallow, horrible person, Dr. Evans.
23:55He said, no, no, you're not.
24:00Look, there was a time when you and Dimitri were cut from the same cloth.
24:07I think that was because it made you feel safer, more comfortable.
24:13But we have discussed this.
24:16You have changed.
24:19You are far more self-aware.
24:22You're more sensitive to other people's feelings,
24:25and you're more understanding of your own feelings now.
24:29So, I've gone from walking disaster to work in progress.
24:35Sold does not mean that I'm worthy of Javi's love.
24:39Well, you may feel that way now,
24:42but let's let Javi decide how he feels.
24:51Are you really okay with all this?
24:53I am.
24:55Honestly, maybe even better than okay.
24:58Because when I was in Texas, I was there.
25:02But...
25:05Oh, my God, what's going on?
25:08Are you here?
25:09What is this?
25:10Actually, I'm here to stay.
25:35Hey, how'd it go?
25:38It went well.
25:40I...
25:41returned the advance,
25:43and Philip agreed to release me from my contract.
25:47He even agreed to speak to Kate on my behalf.
25:51Some new things over with her.
25:53That's great.
25:56I had a feeling things were going to work out.
26:00Oh, I think you had more than a feeling.
26:06Because you orchestrated the whole thing.
26:21Look, I know that you didn't want to tell Johnny about why you're leaving DiMera,
26:26but he sensed that there was something wrong.
26:33Johnny has a lot going on.
26:36He just had a new job,
26:38taking a lawsuit,
26:40he's had a kid at home,
26:41another on the way.
26:42We're not talking about Johnny right now.
26:44We're talking about you.
26:46Right, and I'm not going to push you to talk either,
26:49but...
26:50I can't help but wonder if EJ
26:53has something to do with your
26:55very sudden decision.
27:03Okay.
27:05I'll admit I almost called Javi before I called you.
27:10Well,
27:11I'm glad talking to me helped.
27:15So you can call him now.
27:17Now?
27:18No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
27:19Now's not a good time.
27:21See, if I even think about telling him how I feel,
27:23my heart turns into a caffeinated squirrel on roller skates.
27:27Mm-mm.
27:28Look,
27:29I know this is a very big beep for you,
27:33but you're going to have to take it
27:37sooner or later.
27:40And you know what?
27:42I will be right here with you.
27:45So if it turns out to be good or bad,
27:48whatever happens,
27:50I will be here when you hang up the phone.
28:00I will be right here.
28:14Javi,
28:15that is wonderful news about Woah Papier.
28:17And Aria is going to be so relieved
28:19and so excited that you're coming back

30:26whatever clearly is bothering you but i think it's important that for your own sake you at least talk to
30:35someone i am a grown woman alex i've handled my business affairs long before you came into my life
30:46but instead of respecting that you let me make a fool of myself rambling on to philip about everything
30:52he already knew i am sure that philip didn't think you were being foolish yeah well i felt foolish damn
31:00foolish my god alex you say that you want to protect me but then all you end up doing is
31:08is coddling
31:10me treating me like a child when i needed your protection when i desperately needed your protection
31:21when it actually mattered i failed you that's what you're gonna say right
31:43i knew it i knew it was a mistake to call look we don't know why hobby's not picking up
31:50the phone
31:51maybe he's driving or maybe he's having a a conversation with his father but when the time is right
32:01the two of you will talk what if the time is never right
32:08you know what regardless of the outcome with hobby you've become a man that i never met before
32:19you've become a man who was denied himself instant gratification
