Ranting and Raving!

She can't tell him but needs him to trust her and help John. He'll do his best. She thinks Rolf can repair it and if they can offer him immunity if he can fix it, this may help. Roman's unsure if it's possible and wonders if this disc could harm or kill John. Roman wants to send the disc to ISA to see what's on it and restore it, and then they can help John. This way they don't have to give a deal to Stefano's mad scientist! He asks how Marlena's holding up and she says she's taken on more patients and keeping herself busy.

He isn't sure she should be around him. He thinks it's time to let him go, but she can't. Roman wonders if she has a choice.

Marlena goes into Roman's office to discuss Sami. Roman tells a shocked Marlena that EJ is threatening to sue for custody of Johnny, and explains that EJ and Nicole had sex on the night of the blackout, while Lucas and Chloe did! Marlena is shocked and figures since Sami has played one man off each other, it was bound to happen. She blames herself for Sami growing up watching her torn between two men, but Roman interjects that Sami needs to take some responsibility. Abe interrupts and Marlena goes to get coffee while Abe tells Roman that Morgan refused to take the money that Paul left for her. She wants them to keep it until they find her. "If we find him," says Roman.

Onward and upward, Blondie!

Sami goes in search of Lucas, at the mansion, in the dark. She searches for the ankle bracelet, and Marlena finds her in the great room. Sami asks why Marlena's crying. Marlena tells Sami she has lost John for good. She doesn't want a clean start, but John took away her hope. When John and Ava return from the lab, Sami blasts John. He tells her this is none of your business. Sami calls him a coward and a fool. John says Blondie knew the risks. Marlena agrees but knows there are people who could help - not a stranger. Sami lashes out and calls Ava a kidnapper and murderer and bickering goes on. John's memories mean nothing to him, much to Marlena's surprise. He finds it liberating, he admits. He and Ava go upstairs and Marlena says there is nothing more to discuss. She wants to talk about Sami's love life. Sami wants to spend her life with Lucas but can't erase what happened with EJ. She lets Marlena know that she told EJ they don't have a future. Since it's hot and she's having a bad night, Sami wants to get out. Marlena suggests a few places, including Salem Inn.

The doorbell rings and John excuses himself. He returns with Ava. Marlena isn't impressed and Ava turns to go, but John tells her, "No, I want you to stay." John wants Ava to weigh in on their discussion, though Marlena is unhappy with this. She doesn't want him to trivialize this by having a stranger here. Ava wants to leave, but John tells her to stay. Marlena finds what he's doing to be self-destructive. She asks that he take the disc seriously and Ava turns to leave. John tells her they're through talking and says it's amazing how one little disc can cause all this commotion. Ava thinks he should look into the disc and unlock the doors to himself. He's sure blondie would like it but he's not interested. Marlena has had enough and turns to leave. She hopes he comes to his senses and says the man he was is the only man worth being. She leaves and John is frustrated. Ava comes to John and he tells her he knows who he is now and what he wants. He kisses Ava. Ava thinks this feels right, but John stops things.
