00:06I really thought taking the twins to the aquarium would be a slam dunk.
00:11They're not excited to be going?
00:13Well, Jules is jumping up on the bed thinking she's a jellyfish, but Carver, I guess it turns out he
00:21has a thing with sharks.
00:23Well, I can't say I blame him. Poor little guy.
00:26I'm surprised you didn't hear him screaming from down here.
00:30Oh, I heard him.
00:33Jule, I'm so sorry. I know this is a lot with us being here.
00:40Lonnie, darling, nothing makes me happier than having this house full of life and the people I love.
00:56How did your call with London go?
01:00Long, and I have like five more just like it today.
01:04I wish I could go to the aquarium with you guys.
01:07I know, I do too, but at least we get to spend time with Lonnie and the twins.
01:12No, I love that Trey gets to hang out with his cool older cousins.
01:16You take lots of pictures, okay?
01:18I will. And next time, no excuses.
01:21I mean, what's the point of being CEO if you never get to spend time with your family?
01:27Well, at least I have time to do this.
01:40Dr. Gregory, it is killing me to see Rachel like this.
01:45I mean, it's like she has forgotten how to smile.
01:51No, no, no, what you can do is tell the judge that she'd be better off at home.
01:58You don't have children, do you, doctor?
02:01No, no, I don't think that's an inappropriate question.
02:05You know what? Thanks for nothing.
02:08Is Rachel all right?
02:10No, E.J., she's not. She's in a mental institute.
02:13Sorry, sorry, stupid question.
02:16Are you all right?
02:20Don't insult me by pretending care.
02:28Sophia Choi is an evil, crazy bitch.
02:32Her son is lucky she's not raising him.
02:36Bet Sophia ends up back in a padded room before the month's out.
02:44Senior superlative.
02:46Most likely to abandon her child.
02:51Class psycho Sophia Choi.
03:07Sarah.
03:09Hey.
03:09Hey, I'm sorry to bug you at work, but I was wondering if you could do me a favor.
03:14Kind of a big one.
03:15Okay. What's going on?
03:19Could you help me order a paternity test?
03:23Alex told me.
03:27He just found out.
03:32He has a baby.
03:35What?
03:39The mother is someone that we thought was out of our lives forever.
03:45And she just dropped this on you.
03:50It's a long story.
03:53But, yes.
03:56And now I don't know if we're strong enough to handle this.
04:01If I'm strong enough.
04:06Stephanie, I'm so sorry.
04:09Me too.
04:12Me too.
04:14Me too.
04:21I know you're strong enough to get through this.
04:26What if I'm not?
04:28Then I'll be here for you.
04:30No matter what.
04:46No matter what.
04:49So are the days of our lives.
05:05Can I help you?
05:07No, I got it.
05:08I am an expert at a go bag.
05:10Eli and I are basically a NASCAR pit crew.
05:14That's terrific.
05:15Are you picking Chanel up on the way?
05:18No, I'm going to meet her in the square so we can stop by and get some snacks before we
05:23head to Chicago.
05:24I have to swing by the shop.
05:27Could you drive me with you to the shop?
05:32Yes, that's great.
05:33The kids can stay and hang out with you while I go to Sweet Pits.
05:37You know, I'm thinking I have this book at the store.
05:39It's a, well, it's a baby shark pop-up book.
05:43If Carver and I read it together, maybe he wouldn't find sharks so scary when they're behind glass, that is.
05:52Yeah, you know what?
05:53That sounds amazing.
05:55Thank you, Julie.
05:57My darling, I believe any problem can be improved by reading a correct book.
06:03I just want you and your sister to have a perfect day.
06:07I feel like today is going to be a great dry run from when we have two of our own.
06:12I can't wait.
06:18Did you, uh, did you happen to hear back from the, uh, radiologist about getting mammogram appointment scheduled?
06:26Johnny, are you really bringing that up right now?
06:29No.
06:41A paternity test on who?
06:47On Joy Wesley's baby.
06:51To determine if I am the father.
06:56Probably samples.
07:00Joy.
07:02Yeah.
07:03Joy.
07:05Well, I'm glad she finally told you.
07:08Wait, what?
07:10You knew?
07:16What the hell do you think you're doing?
07:23Screw you.
07:24Screw all of you.
07:25You don't, you don't know me.
07:27You don't know what I've been through because I'm not crazy and I'm, I'm not an evil person.
07:33And I, go away.
07:40I said, go away.
08:05What did I walk in on?
08:07Nothing.
08:09Nothing.
08:09You shouldn't be here.
08:10Oh, well, if you're wondering, no one else is home.
08:15What do you want?
08:17Sophia.
08:19You know damn well what I want.
08:21It's time to take care of my nephew.
08:25Now pull yourself together.
08:33For you.
08:38Unregistered and untraceable.
08:40Now just toss it into the Salem River when you're done.
08:43As we discussed, Johnny is working from home today and Chanel was, she's out with a baby.
08:52No.
08:54What?
08:55I'm sorry.
08:57Hmm?
08:58I can't.
09:00The, the, the kids at school, they're calling me a psycho and a monster.
09:06So?
09:07So, so if I do what you're asking me to do, then that makes them right.
09:11And, and I'm not that person, so I will not kill Johnny.
09:17Chanel.
09:19Hey.
09:22I didn't mean to upset you, okay?
09:24I just, I, I saw you look down at your phone and I.
09:27Yeah, because I'm waiting on a text from Lonnie.
09:30All right, we talked about this, Johnny, about you constantly.
09:34Just bringing up problems and worries.
09:38I know, okay?
09:39I, I'm sorry.
09:40All right, it was just, it was all on my mind.
09:45That's all.
09:48Okay, well, I promise to let you know as soon as the appointment is set, okay?
09:55Okay.
09:58I love you.
10:00I love you too.
10:01So much.
10:04And I, I couldn't go through any of this without you.
10:13You know, you, and Trey, and this, this baby right here inside you.
10:25You're my everything.
10:27You know that, right?
10:32All right, I shall let you get back to work.
10:35Hey, how about we, uh, how about we order in tonight?
10:39Maybe Ty?
10:41There's this, uh, there's this new horror movie that I've been dying to stream.
10:44It's supposed to be really scary.
10:46Hey, can we not do horror?
10:48There's too much of that going on in real life.
10:52Rom-com it is.
10:53And, I will throw in a back rub.
10:57Mm.
10:58And what about a foot massage?
11:00Whatever you want.
11:02I'm going to spend this entire evening showing you exactly how much you are loved.
11:14You were Joyce, doctor.
11:17You ran the original pregnancy test.
11:19The one that she said was negative.
11:21Mm-hmm.
11:22Yeah, I, uh, gave her the unopened test results.
11:25And then I had to tend to an emergency, um, before I could go over them with her.
11:30But by the time I found out that she was pregnant, she had already left Salem.
11:35So you, like, never spoke to her?
11:36Well, I called her in New York, but she told me that she hadn't decided what she was going to
11:42do regarding the pregnancy.
11:44I'm sorry I couldn't tell you anything, obviously, doctor-patient confidentiality.
11:49Yeah.
11:51Well, she had a baby girl.
11:53Her name is Kelsey.
11:56She's beautiful.
11:58Well, that's good, right?
12:00Yeah, it's complicated.
12:03But, um, yeah, I think so.
12:11Stephanie, I am so sorry.
12:14You were upset, and I thought that...
12:16That I wanted to kiss you?
12:20I'm married to Alex.
12:22I know that.
12:23And no matter what is going on between us, I love him.
12:26You understand that, right?
12:27Of course.
12:29Yeah.
12:31Jeremy, I will always be grateful for how you supported me when we were kidnapped and since our rescue.
12:38But I need to be clear.
12:41Nothing can ever happen between us.
12:48Thanks for being honest.
12:57Even if I wasn't married after what happened between us the first time, when we were together, the way that
13:02you treated me, there is no way that I would ever be with you again.
13:11I know.
13:22Is Stephanie known?
13:25Yeah, I told her.
13:26What?
13:27I only wish I had known all along.
13:31Well, um, when I spoke to Joy, albeit briefly, um, I did get the sense that she knew you were
13:41in love with Stephanie, and she didn't want to stand in the way of that.
13:47Yeah.
13:48Well, still, that wasn't her decision to make.
13:54I admit it was a mistake to lean on you the way that I did.
14:00I know that you care about me and that you were trying to help, but I let the lines get
14:03blurry.
14:04Steph, you didn't do anything wrong.
14:10What happened, this whole situation with Alex and Joy, it is, I can handle it on my own.
14:18It's just, um, you weren't even in Salem when they were together.
14:25Just because I was in New York with my dad doesn't mean I can't understand what you're dealing with.
14:31It's a lot to handle.
14:36The joy showing up with the baby now on the heels of what happened to us.
14:47What?
14:51Steph, what is it?
14:57Oh, my God.
15:05I hope you don't mind my stopping by.
15:08I know you're working from home today.
15:10Do you have a minute?
15:11Yeah, is this, uh, is this about what we were talking about this morning?
15:15No one knows will?
15:16No, actually, it's about Bonnie's book and Titan's plagiarism lawsuit.
15:21I have an update.
15:24Sophia, we talked about this.
15:26You have no choice.
15:29You made a deal, remember?
15:32Now, once Johnny's gone, you can turn your attention on making Holly suffer.
15:39And then your revenge will be complete.
15:44And then you can disappear.
15:49Yeah?
15:50Start fresh with a new name and a new life.
15:53You could be happy again.
15:57Don't you want that, Sophia?
16:01I mean, don't you deserve that?
16:06That man!
16:07That man, he took everything from you.
16:12He took everything from you.
16:14He destroyed your mental health, your sense of self.
16:19And now you have a chance to get all that back.
16:23And even those haters, you don't have to deal with that again.
16:28But it won't happen without me, since I am the one funding your new life.
16:34Hmm?
16:38And you won't get that.
16:41Hmm.
16:42If you don't do as I ask.
16:45So.
16:48You good?
16:57Hey, you two.
16:59Hey.
17:00I see this guy.
17:03Look at you, you little stud.
17:05This outfit.
17:07So cute.
17:08I know, right?
17:10Uh, where are Jules and Carver?
17:12Julie is watching them in the bookstore.
17:14Let me go get them.
17:19Hello?
17:21Yes, this is Janelle.
17:25Oh.
17:26Now, like, as in today?
17:31Okay.
17:33Yeah, sure.
17:34Uh, thanks.
17:37Who was that?
17:39Uh, Lonnie, I'm sorry, but I can't go to Chicago.
17:43What?
17:44What's going on?
17:50Steph?
17:51What is it?
17:53What's wrong?
17:55Joy said she heard from a mutual friend that Alex couldn't wait to start a family.
18:00That's why she came back to town to tell him about the baby.
18:04No one here in Salem even knew that she was pregnant.
18:07Very few people even knew that she and Alex hooked up.
18:11But I did tell you.
18:18I was talking to Alex about how I feel right now.
18:22Told him that, um, I wasn't as sure as I used to be about wanting kids.
18:30It was not about him.
18:32But he took it the wrong way.
18:34And then I got defensive and the whole thing escalated really quickly.
18:41I'm sorry.
18:42But what's strange to me is this is like a total 180 from where Alex was last year.
18:49When he thought that he got Joy Wesley pregnant.
18:54I told you Alex was pressuring me about having a family.
18:57I even told you about the pregnancy scare with Joy.
19:03Your dad was dating Joy's mom, so of course you talked to her.
19:08You're the friend who got Joy to come clean, aren't you?
19:12You're the one who got her to come back to Salem.
19:25So, I'm really sorry to cancel on you.
19:29Are you kidding?
19:30I mean, Chanel, if they can get you in for this mammogram, you have to go.
19:34Yeah, but it's not like it's an emergency, but it's just that Johnny was really worried, and so.
19:40Are you worried?
19:43You know how your body changes during pregnancy.
19:46So, Sarah says that the lump is probably, it's probably nothing.
19:52Have you told mom?
19:53No, no, I have not told mom yet.
19:56You know how she gets.
19:57Yeah, yeah.
19:57So, please just don't say anything.
20:00Okay.
20:01Your call, I am just, I'm so happy you're getting it checked out.
20:07Let me go ask Julie if she'll keep the twins for the afternoon.
20:10Why?
20:11What do you mean, why?
20:12I'm coming with you.
20:13No, you can't do that.
20:16Why not?
20:17Because I don't want to let Jules and Carver down.
20:20Chanel is fine.
20:22Carver is afraid to go anyway.
20:24We, I want to be there for you.
20:27You know, you know what the best thing that you can do for me is take Trey with you to
20:33the aquarium.
20:35Okay, it'll give me happy thoughts to know that he's there, seeing the fishies with his cousins.
20:41We can go to the aquarium any other day.
20:43Yes, I know that, but please, I mean it, all right?
20:51Are you sure?
20:53Yes, I'm sure.
20:55And take a million pictures, okay?
21:00Okay.
21:02You just call me if anything, just if there's anything that you need, you call me.
21:08Okay, I will.
21:11I'm praying for you.
21:12Okay.
21:13You know I love you so much, right?
21:16I love you, too.
21:20An update on the lawsuit.
21:22Okay.
21:24Good or bad?
21:26Good, I hope.
21:27I went around Xander and Kate and reached out to Justin directly.
21:32Justin wants to save his wife for the humiliation of this lawsuit, going to trial and becoming tabloid fodder.
21:40I mean, that'd be great.
21:42I mean, that'd be great.
21:44Thank you for, you know, for working on this.
21:46And, yeah, I really appreciate it.
21:49I really appreciate you stopping by to let me know, too.
21:53Never a hardship to deliver good news.
21:55Plus, I thought I might steal a little time, my grandson.
21:59Uh, sorry.
22:00No, yeah, Trey and Chanel are in Chicago at the Shed Aquarium.
22:05Next time?
22:07Next time?
22:10Hey, how about tomorrow?
22:15Yeah, maybe...
22:16Maybe we could take Trey out for lunch before we go to Nona's will reading?
22:22I'd love that.
22:28All right.
22:30Let me see these messages.
22:33I made a fake post on a school message board fishing for Holly to say something negative about me so
22:39that I could use it against her later.
22:41And did she?
22:44Well, then everybody else started piling on, and I don't even know half of those people, and they all hate
22:49me.
22:50Oh, Sophia Choi is an evil, crazy bitch.
22:55Her son is lucky she's not raising him.
22:59Just gets more vicious from there.
23:04Sophia.
23:07These miserable losers saying vile things about you after what Holly and Johnny put you through?
23:14They are the monsters.
23:16Others, trust me, if you stay in Salem, this hate, it will always, always be a part of your life,
23:28along with the shame and the judgment.
23:33You will feel this every time you walk out of your house.
23:45If they make you feel that way, why do you stay here?
23:53Rachel.
23:55And I have unfinished business here.
24:01Settling the score with your brother.
24:06And once we're even, maybe I'll disappear to you.
24:10You know?
24:12Take Rachel, leave Salem, and...
24:17Just let those small-minded jerks see them in my rearview mirror.
24:24And say goodbye to them for good.
24:28Not to mention EJ.
24:31All right, you know what, I'm sorry that my brother tried to scare you this morning.
24:36But those threats, those are just the beginning.
24:42You will never be free of that.
24:45Never.
24:49He deserves to feel real loss.
24:54Real, unrelenting pain.
24:59And when he does,
25:02he'll understand.
25:05He, and Holly, and Johnny, they will all understand.
25:24Sophia, do not squander this golden opportunity.
25:38One last mission, that's it.
25:45And then you, you can live your beautiful new life.
26:14You know, I made a similar choice to Joyce with Victoria.
26:21Yeah, but you didn't do that to protect Xander.
26:24You did it to protect your daughter from someone who was threatening her safety.
26:32But now, after I've seen everything Xander's done,
26:39I still regret keeping his daughter from him.
26:44And it sounds like Joy feels the same way.
26:48Yeah.
26:52Now, back to the paternity test.
26:55Oh.
26:56Do you have any reason to believe the child isn't yours?
27:03Not really.
27:05I'm just covering my bases.
27:08I think that's smart.
27:11Yeah.
27:12It's better to make sure before you make any decisions.
27:16Right.
27:19And then we will just deal with whatever comes next.
27:25The old man would try to deny it.
27:28Try to throw someone else under the bus.
27:31I've spent too much time trying to convince you.
27:34Convince this entire town.
27:36I'm not that guy anymore.
27:38Does that mean you're admitting what you did?
27:42Yes.
27:44Once I realized that Alex is the father of Joy's baby,
27:47I encouraged her to come back to Salem and tell him the truth.
27:51Which you knew would turn Alex and my life upside down.
27:56And you even pretended to be surprised that Joy was in town.
27:59Hold on.
28:00Hold on, please.
28:00I didn't do it for the reasons you think.
28:02I was trying to help.
28:03Help?
28:05How?
28:06Alex deserves to know he has a daughter.
28:09And Joy is struggling to raise that kid on her own.
28:13Keeping this big secret to herself.
28:16Mostly, I saw how stressed you were about Alex wanting a kid.
28:20And I thought, maybe if you already knew he had a child,
28:23I'd take some of the pressure off.
28:25You really think this was going to make things easier?
28:30Do you hear yourself?
28:36I'm sorry, Stephanie.
28:39I was trying to be there for you.
28:42Yeah, well, I don't want that.
28:46Not anymore.
28:49I will always be thankful that you showed up when I needed you to.
28:54But that is where it ends.
29:00I don't want you in my life anymore, Jeremy.
29:03Not in any way.
29:05Do you understand?
29:09Yeah.
29:11Yeah.
29:12Yeah, I got it.
29:16Goodbye, Stephanie.
29:41Pardon me one, will ya?
29:47You seem to be in better spirits.
29:49Yeah, so do you.
29:51I had to spend some time with Johnny.
29:54Oh, how is that, darling boy?
29:58He's great.
30:00We spoke about the mirror business,
30:02and he invited me to spend some time with him and Trey before the will waiting.
30:08Oh, congratulations.
30:10It sounds like things couldn't be better.
30:36Hey, Mom.
30:40I know you're busy, but can you let me know if you have a minute?
30:48I need my mom right now.
30:58Ah, you're home.
31:03Something wrong?
31:06I did something, Julie.
31:10Something I...
31:12I believed it was helpful at the time.
31:15I was starting to realize.
31:19I didn't do it for the right reasons.
31:22Well, I don't know what the something is, so I can't comment.
31:27I'm sorry you're upset.
31:32You know, I've been trying to figure out what my next chapter's gonna be.
31:36Whether I should stay in Salem or just go somewhere else.
31:43Have you made a final decision?
31:48Alex!
31:50Hey, what are you doing here?
31:51Hey, Chanel.
31:52Just here for a routine test.
31:55How about you?
31:55Everything good with the baby?
31:57Yeah.
31:57Yeah, great.
31:58Just a checkup.
32:00Oh, nice.
32:01Well, good luck.
32:02Yeah.
32:02Did you see it?
32:03Oh, good.
32:05Radiology reached you.
32:06I'm really glad they could squeeze you in today.
32:08Okay.
32:08Will Johnny be joining you?
32:10Uh, I haven't called him.
32:13Does he...
32:14Should he be here?
32:16I think he would want to be here.
32:22Uh, well, he's just really slammed with work right now, so I just, I don't want to worry
32:27him.
32:29Okay.
32:30I understand.
32:31And as your doctor, I will respect your decision.
32:36But as your friend, I have to ask.
32:40Maybe he would like the chance to make that decision himself.
32:43They don't want him like me12.
32:46They don't want him.
32:53They don't want him to bash the Jahre at何 .
33:26Okay, he's not answering. He's probably on another international Zoom call.
33:32Is there anyone else I could call for you? Maybe your mom?
33:36No, I'll be fine. Like you said, it's probably nothing, so it's best to just get it over with.
33:44Okay. Well, there are gowns in the dressing rooms down the hall. A nurse will direct you to them, and
33:49I will walk you down to radiology when you're ready.
33:53Okay.
33:53Okay.
34:02I don't know anymore, Julie.
34:06Don't know about what?
34:15Everything. It feels like no matter what I do, I just make things worse.
34:20Jeremy.
34:24Because you lead with your heart, like I always have.
34:30Sometimes things just spin out of control that way. Our control, anyhow.
34:40Well, that's when you need to focus on what really matters, Jeremy. On what makes you happy.
34:51What if what makes me happy, I can't ever have.
35:00And maybe, maybe it's time to forget what's impossible and open yourself up to something new.
35:17Something that might be wonderful. Something that's worthy of the good person you are.
35:36You're home.
35:38I just got back.
35:40Where'd you go?
35:41I, uh, needed some air.
35:46And they ended up running into Jeremy.
35:49Jeremy.
35:52Alex, he's the one who brought Joy back to Salem and encouraged her to tell you the truth about the
35:58baby.
35:59Wait, what?
36:01Why the hell would he do that?
36:03Doesn't matter.
36:05Because you deserved to know.
36:10So even though I'm upset, it's not Jeremy's fault.
36:15Or Joy's.
36:17And it's certainly not yours.
36:22So, if you are the father...
36:25I just dropped off the samples at the hospital.
36:27So, you're doing the DNA test as we speak.
36:32Okay.
36:34Good.
36:39But you know, if you are a match...
36:43This is going to change our whole lives.
36:48I know.
36:56One thing that doesn't change is how much I love you.
37:02I love you, too.
37:05I do.
37:09We're going to get through this stuff.
37:14As long as we hold on to each other...
37:17We're going to be okay.
37:32As much as I love being here with you...
37:34And the whole family...
37:39I just don't think I can get the fresh start I need in Salem.
37:44I don't think this is where my future is right now.
37:51So, back to New York?
37:56I think that's where I need to be.
38:01Hopefully, find some peace and see what's next.
38:11Well...
38:12I'm going to miss you.
38:18I'm so proud of you, Jeremy.
38:22Thank you...
38:23For never losing faith in me.
38:26Making me feel like a true Horton.
38:32You are a Horton, my dear.
38:35And wherever you go...
38:37Remember, you always have a home.
38:41Here.
38:45Evil.
38:47Evil.
38:47Oh.
38:53You're still planning to be at the Will Reading tomorrow, Al?
38:59Wouldn't miss it.
39:03I have to say, I am relieved the day has finally come.
39:07We can put father to rest and move forward with our family.
39:12And who doesn't want that, right?
39:18How are you feeling about it, Chris?
39:27Tomorrow is going to be a day that none of us will ever forget.
39:32Remember what father used to say?
39:36Make the most of today.
39:39For tomorrow isn't guaranteed.
39:51Look, Sophia, this is, uh, really not a good time.
39:54And, frankly, I have nothing to say to you.
39:59No.
40:00Well, I don't really care because I have a lot to say to you.
40:05Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
40:13oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
40:16oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
40:16oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
40:17oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
