Marlena finds herself at the hospital, in front of Stefano's room. She dreams that he has woken up and grabs her arm. "You won't get away with this, Marlena." She wakes up and jumps when John comes up behind her. He tells her she can watch but can't do anything. He's going to kill Stefano and it'll be untraceable. "I don't condone murder," she says, but John thinks she should have killed him before. She already regrets what she did, in desperation. She comments that she was taking care of him and thinks Ava can do that now. "Things have changed," says John.
Marlena goes to Stefano and tells him she's there. She's not sure how the stroke affected him but guesses he can still hear her. She wonders if he remembers what she did to him. She wants him to know she would do it again in a heartbeat! Stefano wakes up, looks at her through half closed eyes and his heart rate spikes. Lexi races in with EJ and Tony in tow. In his head, Stefano murmurs, "Prepare yourself. I will have my revenge."
Nicole arrives at Java Café with Pookie. Evan tells her she can't bring dogs in the coffee house, but she denies that he's there. She tells Pookie that Evan's a cat person, and Pookie barks quietly. Some young girl comes into the café, and Nicole overhears her telling a friend that her new beau is very sweet and even opened the door for her. Nicole mopes. Marlena wanders in for a coffee and makes idle chit chat with Evan. He's going on holiday to Colorado, he says. Trent butts in front of the young woman and this irks Marlena, who tells him how rude he is. They argue about common courtesy. Nicole listens from her table, laughing. Marlena goes to Evan and they agree that Trent has an inflated ego.
EJ arrives. "Hi trouble," EJ says to Nicole and when he asks if he can join her, she looks at Trent and refuses, then reconsiders. They discuss Sami. He tells her he and Samantha are through, but she doesn't believe it. How he can turn his feelings off so suddenly? He tells her she seems to have! She tells him she really likes EJ but can't continue on this path. EJ thinks that his feelings for her mirror his. He's only asking for her to give them a chance. She won't compete with Sami. He tells her he's a real ladies man, but he has no interest in anyone else. He's been in a relationship that's going nowhere for two years and it's Nicole who has turned his eye. She still can't see him, she apologizes.
Nick arrives at Java Café and Trent's happy to see him. They sit and discuss school, and Trent tells Nick there is more to life than nuclear physics. Trent wants to rent the Brady pub for a going away party for Professor Fergus. Could Nick put in a good word for him with Max? Nick pauses… Trent should talk to Caroline - not Max! Trent thanks him and goes to Nicole and EJ's table and mentions how they spend an awful lot of time together. "He is my lawyer," says Nicole. EJ leaves and Trent starts his usual threats. Why was EJ holding her hand, he wonders? Nicole denies he was and tells him to go to hell. She's sick of his control and manipulations. She's putting her foot down! He thinks she brings it on herself by the way she dresses and flirts. His manipulations don't affect Nicole. She gets up and leaves the table and Evan goes to her to see if she's all right. Evan detests Trent and offers to kick him out.
Marlena goes to EJ and tells EJ he stepped way over the line by threatening to take her daughter's son away from her. EJ comments that Sami would have done the same. Marlena is angry that she defended him. He's still Stefano's son. She knows he bribed the judge. EJ retorts that Sami's done worse, but Marlena's not so sure. She accuses him of manipulating everyone. Marlena admits she talked to immigration. Mr. Burke will be out of a job! She thinks he should be behind bars and is angry with EJ for playing games with them after all they've done for him. "This isn't over EJ. Not by a long shot," she promises. EJ won't apologize. Marlena asks if he's still in love with Sami. All he says is that she's the mother of his son. EJ says that though he was honest with Sami regarding Mr. Burke, it backfired. Marlena laughs at this and EJ says no matter what his feelings for Samantha are, they're not reciprocated, so he's moving on.
At the DiMera mansion, John and Ava lounge on the couch. She talks about their amorous antics but he's busy reading an article about Paul. He says that searching for him is a waste of time. "How do you know it's a waste of time?" Marlena asks as she bursts into the room. Rolf apologizes but John says it's okay. "I didn't mean to intrude on your... private time," she hisses. He says that's okay because she's his wife, not that she ever acted like it. Ava decides she should be somewhere else. Before she can escape, EJ catches her. She thanks John for last night and walks off. EJ strolls over to the desk to work. Marlena and John repeat their common argument about her trying to change him into who he isn't. She points out that he's now committed infidelity. "I guess that gives you grounds for divorce," he mutters. They bicker. She walks out.
Marlena grabs Rolf in the foyer. He doesn't want to talk; he's scared of John. She says that it's not John, just a robot in his body. She repeats her demands that he work with the ISA to fix John's memory disc. Rolf worries but Marlena repeats her promise that she can get him protection from John, new or old. She worries that the old John will never come back. He reminds her that she's always gotten through to him eventually. Not this time. "The truth is: He's falling in love with someone else," she admits.
Ava catches Marlena at the pub to apologize. Marlena vows to fight for her husband, if not for herself, than for his own sake. Ava reminds her that John Black doesn't exist. Marlena tells her that the man she slept with wasn't her husband and that the real John is hiding somewhere inside. "When the real John comes back, he will be though with you," Marlena bites.
Marlena goes to see Roman at the station. He still has no information about John's disc. She explains that the DA has contacted her to turn over the notes from her sessions with Ava. Ethically, she can't do that. Roman reminds her that she is one of their consulting therapists. She says Ava came to her; the department didn't send her. They talk about how Vitali has sublet Sami's apartment and what it must be doing to Steve and Kayla.
Morgan stands in the doorway of Bo's office. She asks he and Philip what they were talking about. They say it's just about Victor. Philp walks out with her. Morgan continues to worry about her father. He offers to take her to the sorority house. She doesn't want to be alone. He offers to take her to his place instead. Bo watches them, frustrated. Marlena catches him kicking his desk and asks what's wrong. He's got problems with a case but can't talk about it, especially to her. She offers to recommend someone then. He turns her down and walks over to his brother, reminding him that he is a suspect in Paul's disappearance and it's stupid for him to be hanging around his daughter. Philip wants to be there for Morgan. "If I find out that you and Victor played me..." Bo threatens. Philip protests his innocence again and walks off.
Patch watches TV at home before laying down and opening a baby book called "Daddy, Don't Drop me". Kayla walks in and tells him Joe is sleeping. "I'm sorry sweetness," he says. The whole Ava thing is something he can't forgive himself for, especially because of what happened to Shawn. Kayla wants Ava to pay. Later, Steve grouches about Stephanie leaving with Max. Marlena and Roman come to the door. They discuss the testimony they will be giving at Ava's trial. Kayla wanders off and Marlena follows. Kayla admits to her that she lost it when she discovered that Ava moved in across the hall. Marlena apologizes on John's behalf, blaming him for initiating this. Kayla just wants Ava out of her life for good. Marlena is sure it's only a matter of time before she hurts someone else. They begin discussing Bo; Marlena is concerned about him. Kayla doesn't know what's wrong but offers to find out. Meanwhile, Roman explains to Steve how all of the charges against Ava are going to play out. He knows that part of Steve feels guilty about all of this, but this is not his fault.
The doorbell at the mansion rings and Ava answers it only to find Marlena standing there. The doctor strolls in and explains that she's ethically bound not to testify against her, whatever her personal feelings may be. She then suggests that she move somewhere else. John walks in and announces that Ava will be staying with him. Marlena asks to talk to him privately. Ava makes herself scarce. Blondie wants the truth out of John about Paul's disappearance. He lights a cigar. "Did you kill him John?" she asks. Ava eavesdrops.
