May he soon rest in peace!

At the hospital, Lexi is sitting on the hospital bed, hands shaking. Celeste helps her apply makeup and once Lexi gets a look at herself in the mirror, she starts to cry, uncontrollably, thinking she looks as though she has aged 10 years since she was a prisoner in the tunnel. Celeste tells her she looks beautiful and when Lexi worries about what will happen with Abe, her mother tells her, "Speak from your heart when Abraham arrives." Dr. Burger arrives without Abe and tells Lexi she has bad news. Abe has been complaining of severe headaches and running a fever, so it could mean that he is rejecting the corneal transplant. Lexi tells the doctor that they'll wait to see him. The doctor leaves and Lexi thinks it's a sign that she should leave Salem and never return. Celeste poo poo's her thoughts about this being a sign, and says that her husband needs her. Celeste asks, "What about Theo?" Lexi says she'll call him, and this strikes a chord with Celeste, who indignantly tells her daughter that Theo needs his mother. Lexi confesses that she worries she'll hurt her family more, being back. Celeste comforts her with a loving, motherly hug. Lexi says she feels bad about what her mother has gone through, but Celeste lets her know that she always held out hope. She thinks this is Lexi's second chance and tells her to grab on to it and never let it go! Alexandra nods and thanks her mother from allowing her to make another terrible mistake. The doctor arrives again and tells them that Abe is resting and the fever has gone down. Lexi and Celeste are happy and Lexi tells the doctor she has changed her mind and would like to see her husband!! The doctor tells her that Abe's sedated and won't know she's there, but Lexi doesn't mind. She wants to be the first person Abe sees when his bandages are removed!

The doctor leaves and Celeste tells her how proud of her she is for being so loving and kind, knowing she's a DiMera. Lexi's eyes are moist as she listens to her mother's praises. Celeste tells her she deserves a reward. She opens the door and Theo comes running in… "Mommy!!" he calls, as he's swept up by an overjoyed Lexi. Lexi promises her son she'll never go away again, and they tell one another how much they love each other.

Family Meeting!

The family sits to dinner and Bart serves. He splashes some 'fishy sauce' on Celeste, who calls him an idiot. Dr. Rolf stands nearby, having already eaten. Tony and EJ argue about taking the stem cells from Sami's baby, and Stefano gets up and holds a stack of letters and says wars have been won and lost. He says when his father was in Ireland, he met Colleen, who became his whole life. "Colleen Brady changed the course of our family's history, but love did not conquer all. She was murdered in cold blood. A Brady took a Brady's life," he says with passion, and confesses that his father never recovered. He says Santo made Stefano seek vengeance on the Brady family. He asks his family if he should tell them to continue this vendetta or ask them to stop it now and forever. EJ tells them that they've allowed the vendetta to take over their lives and says Stefano has the power to stop this. Tony tells Stefano that he forced the vendetta on their lives, "And now you want to stop this because EJ fell in love with Samantha?" Celeste tells them that there is no magic eraser to erase the past, even though they want to. Stefano angrily threatens Tony that if he doesn't have loyalty to this family, he can pack his bags and leave. Tony yells back that he has been running the family for him for years, "Until this SOB fell in love with the blonde bimbo." EJ doesn't like the sound of that, and gets up and goes at Tony! Stefano yells at them to stop it and start acting like brothers! "Embrace each other!" Stefano urges the men. The men huff and puff and eventually hug each other, rather stiffly! Stefano allows Celeste to leave, and asks her to give a message to Lexi that he loves her. After she leaves, Stefano asks Tony to follow Celeste to ensure she doesn't go to the police or the Brady Pub.

She Could Be a Twin

At Doug's place, Lexi tearfully tells Hope that she's sorry but she thought that Bo had come to kill her. Hope tells Doug to take her to the hospital and starts climbing down the hole. Doug and Julie sit down with Lexi. She explains that there was an accident and she woke up in the tunnel. She was given food and water every few days but saw no one. When she heard voices, she found the mask and put it on, not knowing who was upstairs. 'No one is safe, no one,' she says frantically. They call her mother, who quickly arrives and pulls her daughter into her arms. Lexi asks about Theo and Abe and, after an update, Celeste wants to know what has happened to her. Lexi will explain, but right now they need to get her to a hospital. As they walk off, Julie looks down the shaft as music becomes audible. Doug looks in and starts calling down.

Celeste takes her daughter to the hospital and tells her that whoever did this to her will have to be punished. Lexi begs her mother not to call Abe. The night of the accident, she was with Tek. 'Nothing happened, but...' Celeste still insists that Abe needs to know that she is alive. Is Tek alive? Lexi doesn't know, she hasn't been able to think, but she knows that she feels awful for what she did to Abe. When Celeste explains that Abe will be having his bandages removed tonight, Lexi asks if he can have it done here, in the room. She asks her mother to let her get fixed up beforehand. 'I want my face to be the first face that he sees.'

Fraternizing With The Enemy

Sami leaves, and Celeste shows up and tells him that EJ knows that he's the father of the baby. She tells her that the baby was conceived only to save Stefano's life.

Voodoo Ritual

Celeste kneels before a large cauldron and asks EJ to remove his shirt for the voodoo ritual. He does so and she asks the spirits to tell them who is the father of Sami's baby. EJ has on him a glove from Lucas and a handkerchief from Sami. Celeste asks EJ to blow on two peacock feathers that symbolize Sami and Lucas, and wrap them in his shirt. He does so, stating that he feels pretty silly, but she asks him to continue. At her request, he throws the items into the fire, and Celeste asks EJ to imagine the child is his and that Stefano rips it from his hands in order to add a few more years to his life. EJ can't take it anymore and wants to leave, but Celeste tells him he must stay until the fire has gone out. He kneels before the fire and she threatens that harm will come to him if she finds out that Alexandra is hurt or worse. She asks if he'll protect this child from his father if it's his, and he tells her he'll know what to do.

EJ finds a peacock feather and asks Celeste whose it is. "It's yours," she tells him. EJ breaks out in a smile and laughs. "Now I can save my father!"

Five month countdown!

Back by the family plot, Celeste says she didn't want to be pulled into another of his family's plots but if she wants to see Alexandra, she had no choice but to do Tony's bidding. She tells him Stefano needs those stem cells immediately, and becomes angry when it dawns on her that the stem cells are to come from Samantha's baby. She demands to know where Alexandra is, and EJ puts her off, giving her his word that he will tell her when he is ready. Celeste knows his word is meaningless and is steaming mad at him for raping Samantha in order to get her pregnant, just to save Stefano. EJ suggests she leave but she ignores him and tells him he doesn't owe Stefano anything. She warns, "I promise you. He will destroy you." EJ disagrees and says his father loves him. "I think I know my own father," he says, but Celeste says that Stefano hides behind his wealth and power because he's selfish. She says that Stefano raised him as a weapon. EJ's face falls as she goes on to say that Stefano would destroy his child for his own sake. "If you are the father, you need to stand up to Stefano and save this baby's life. How far will you go to save an evil old man?"

Sami and Lucas come to tell EJ of their agreement find Celeste there. Celeste says she's there to see EJ on family business, and EJ asks what the verdict is. Sami tells EJ that he'll have to wait 5 months until the baby is born. EJ is furious and says, "I'm not waiting 5 months, Samantha." Lucas asks what the rush is and EJ stumbles over his words. "I want closure," he says. EJ flashes back to his conversation with Celeste when she asks him what type of father he is to put Samantha through hell during her pregnancy, when he knows he's also putting the child through hell. He appears grim, and Sami says, "The child comes first, before everything else." Celeste agrees and EJ ponders finally agrees to defer to her until the baby is born. The newlyweds leave and Celeste tells EJ she's impressed and asks what he's going to tell Stefano. A desperate EJ suggests that Celeste perform some sort of voodoo ritual to find out the paternity of the child!
