Nothing About The Heimlich Is Romantic!

Brad and Katie are just finishing up the show at WOAK. The food dish is making Brad sick because of the hangover. He asks how she could leave him that way in Old Town; she points out that he hasn't been great to her lately, either. "Nothing about the Heimlich is romantic, Brad," she says when he brings up his proposal. Brad asks her to come have breakfast with him. Katie refuses. He says they can brainstorm new ideas but she turns him down. He suggests take-out but can't find his wallet. Bonnie arrives - with Brad's wallet and undies! Katie walks off but listens as Brad asks Bonnie if he can come to court with her. Bonnie says it is a closed hearing but Brad says he'll wait outside and they can grab lunch later. Bonnie agrees. They leave with Brad laughing and making jokes about briefs and torts. When they are outside Katie's hearing Bonnie tells Brad to stop trying so hard because Katie totally bought his scene. He leaves.

Sofie meets with Chris and asks him to testify on her behalf. Chris points out his family loyalties but she begs him to testify that she had post-partum depression. Her lawyer arrives. Chris agrees to testify. Will and Gwen arrive. Sofie says she was wrong to give up her child but thankfully Hallie will never remember them. She goes into the courtroom. Bonnie arrives and says they have a good chance at retaining custody but it will be heard. As they are headed inside Barbara arrives. Will asks her not to come in but Gwen tells her to stay. Will finally agrees and they go inside. Chris is called as Sofie's first witness. He talks about post-partum behavior, saying it could have caused her to take the baby. The lawyer brings up Cole and Iris and says they pressured Sofie into giving up the baby. He brings up Barbara's part in it. The judge asks what her part was. Barbara takes the stand and says Iris and Cole told her that Sofie wanted to get rid of the baby. She talks about what great parents Will and Gwen are. The lawyer brings up Barbara's payments to Iris and Cole. She says it was for medical bills. Sofie yells that Barbara was trying to buy her child. Sofie takes the stand and says she was a victim of Cole and Iris the whole time. She says she wouldn't have listened if she wasn't alone; the lawyer says the adoption should be void because Sofie wasn't represented. Bonnie points out that she asked Sofie to get a lawyer but she didn't want one. The lawyer questions Chris again, who says that Sofie was pressured! Will can't believe that Chris is siding with Sofie. The judge calls a recess so everyone can calm down. Sofie thanks Chris and hugs him. Will angrily asks Chris how he could do that to them. Chris says he was just offering an opinion and leaves. The court returns to session and Bonnie gives her opening arguments. She points out that Sofie may have been sad and lonely but she didn't have a right to kidnap the child when she didn't even have a job with which to care for her. "You recklessly endangered Hallie's life," Bonnie says! Sofie keeps calling Hallie "my baby" and tries to blame Barbara for the kidnapping! Bonnie focuses on Sofie and reminds her about all the safeguards that she told Sofie about before she signed. Then, Bonnie reminds Sofie that she knew about the time period she had to object. Sofie insists she doesn't remember that. Bonnie tells the judge that Sofie had no rights to Hallie when she kidnapped the baby because that waiting period had been over for one day. The judge asks if she read the agreement and Sofie says she did and then cries that she didn't realize what she was doing. Bonnie turns to the judge, telling him that Sofie is obviously unstable and tells him about what happened to Hallie in New York City. Sofie's lawyer insists that Sofie only made a mistake; Bonnie reminds the judge that Sofie had no rights to Hallie. Bonnie asks if they can bring in a few more witnesses, just to delay. The judge agrees and dismisses them for lunch. Gwen believes they could lose the baby. Bonnie tells them they need a witness who can offset Chris's testimony. Will suggests Aaron but Gwen doesn't like that idea. Bonnie says it could really help their case.

Emily is Questioned!

Lily and Holden are having dinner at Al's when Bonnie angrily walks in and tells Holden to avoid police - even Jack! - unless she is around. She sits down with both of them and says Holden - and Lily - are only making things worse. "They could charge you with obstruction of justice," she says. Lucinda calls and Lily goes to chat with her. Bonnie continues with Holden, saying she won't represent him if he won't trust her. When he doesn't jump in line with Bonnie's plans, she takes herself off of his case and leaves.

Tom returns to Kim, who is worried about Chris. Tom says it has something to do with Emily and Dusty; Lily overhears and wonders if Chris now knows more than he wanted to about "those Stewart women".

Lucinda won't let Chris do it and says no one will sign any contracts until they hear everything Dusty has to say! Chris can't believe he is being foiled again.
