Kate asked Lucas how Chloe was doing. He said she was doing well. Lucas handed his mother some production notes for the show's taping that day. He went to the hospital to see Chloe, who was with Daniel. Lucas asked Daniel to come over for dinner some night, but Daniel begged off. Lucas thought it was weird. Chloe got a good report from the doctor. She and Lucas ran into Daniel after. Lucas mentioned the taping, but Daniel said he couldn't make it because he had so many patients to see and couldn't get home in between work and the show. Lucas offered to go to his place and pick up the clothes. Daniel turned over his key.

Back at the Kiriakis manse, a man came in with a small delivery for Kate. She kicked her assistant Chris out and paid the man. After he left, she opened the box. There was a key inside. She then took out the poison she used to harm Chloe. After, she sneaked into Daniel's apartment and planted the poison in his place. She heard Chloe and Lucas outside and hid in the closet. Chloe got weird when she walked into Daniel's pad, recalling her intimate moments there with him. Lucas went to fetch the clothes. Chloe spied an item on the floor that Kate had left behind.

At the DiMera mansion, Nicole told EJ that dropping the custody suit was the right thing so she, EJ and Sydney could move forward as a family. EJ was still bent on getting some sort of revenge on Sami.

Rafe came to Sami's townhouse. She asked him to move in with her. He was surprised and didn't answer right away, which made her uneasy. He explained that he didn't want her to rush into it. She said she wasn't. They happily made plans to live together.

At the Brady Pub, Philip revealed to Melanie that Stephanie dumped him. She was unfazed and wanted to order dessert. She noted they'd be back together soon enough. Melanie urged him to fight for Steph.

At the hospital, Steph ran into Nathan, literally. He asked her to go for coffee, but then got a call and picked up his phone. He realized it was her phone and that someone named Philip was calling. He handed the cell to her. Steph didn't answer it. Nathan questioned her about Philip, but she said it was none of his business. He apologized and introduced himself to her. They made the Horton/Brady connection.

Back at the Pub, Brady came in as Philip told Mel that he didn't think Steph was coming back to Titan. Brady asked his uncle what he did to make Steph leave him. Philip got insulted and left. Melanie wondered why Brady wasn't with Arianna. He warned her to stop matchmaking and not to interfere with Phil and Steph. Melanie asked Brady to talk to Philip about her getting Stephanie's Titan job now that Steph was working at the hospital.... Steph called Philip back and asked him to stop calling her, explaining they needed a clean break. She returned to the hospital and ran into Melanie, who reported that Philip told her everything. Mel asked Steph to meet her later for plans. Steph said okay.

EJ arrived at Sami's townhouse to find Rafe moving in. They exchanged barbs. EJ took off. While unpacking his things, Rafe found an engagement and wedding ring. He took them out and said, "Emily." He then found a newspaper clipping that read, "Bride To Be Dies Mysteriously."

Nicole called Sami and asked to meet. Nic then took Sydney to the park. Sami arrived. She asked when she could see Johnny again. Nicole explained that things had changed. Sami was alarmed, but Nicole reported that she got EJ to drop the custody case. Sami was thrilled and thanked Nicole. Nicole reminded her to keep Rafe out of DiMera affairs. Sydney started to get fussy, so Nicole picked her up. Sami held the baby while Nic looked for her pacifier. Sami noted how beautiful Syd was and how she looked just like her mother. Gulp, thought Nicole. EJ came upon them and took the baby from Sami, saying she could never hold her again. EJ said he was about to drop the custody suit until he saw Rafe at her apartment. He wasn't happy that she was exposing his son to a man she knew nothing about. She insisted she knew everything that mattered.

On the pier, Brady ran into Daniel, who was about to go for a run. Brady noted that the doc seemed out of sorts. Daniel revealed he had a situation with a patient and it rattled him. He revealed that it was Chloe — and that he loved her.
