Nicole wondered how Chloe ended up in a coma. Brady explained she was poisoned and Daniel was arrested for the crime. Nicole refused to believe it. Daniel and Chloe loved each other. Nicole said Chloe told her that and that Daniel was moving on with another woman. Brady said Daniel never mentioned another woman to him, only how deeply he loved Chloe. Nicole wished Chloe would wake up and explain it all. In the interim, she suspected Kate. This kind of revenge was her style.

Kate prepared to leave the mansion. Victor noted going on the run made her look guilty, which she was, and expressed his furor over what she was trying to do to Daniel. Kate explained she was moving in with Lucas. Victor couldn't believe it, considering she poisoned Chloe. Kate insisted she did nothing. Victor scolded Kate for framing his godson, because he dumped her for a younger woman, not because Chloe cheated on Lucas. Kate swore that wasn't the case; then, told Victor she wasn't going to move in with Lucas. She was going to find a place for her and Philip. Kate played up how Philip loved her and would hate Victor if he turned her in. Victor said Kate could stay. Brady arrived and asked about the luggage. Kate noted she was considering getting her own place, but Victor convinced her to stay. After Kate left, Brady asked what was going on. Victor dodged.

Stefano tried to convince Meredith that Sami deserved to know everything about Rafe. Meredith said she'd told Sami her suspicions about Rafe. "But did you give her the details?" asked Stefano, insisting it was Meredith's responsibility to do so.

Nicole returned home and told Stefano about Chloe. Stefano tried to raise her spirits, telling her the situation with Rafe had been taken care of. "I changed my mind. I want you to stop going after Rafe," announced Nicole. Stefano couldn't believe his ears. If EJ ever discovered the truth about Sydney, Nicole would lose everything. Nicole noted everything Sami had already been through. Stefano realized Nicole was feeling guilty for taking Sami's child. He urged her to let that go and never look back.

Rafe remembered his talk with Meredith, while Sami slept. The phone rang, and it was Caroline, noting Chloe had been poisoned. Sami tried to call Lucas and Will to no avail. Sami went off on Chloe for cheating on Lucas, noting she brought this on herself. "So you're saying Lucas poisoned her when he found out?" asked Rafe. Sami insisted Lucas would never do that. It was Daniel, the man Chloe had her affair with. Rafe couldn't believe it. Sami said people did crazy things sometimes, even if they loved someone. Later, Sami apologized for her remark. Rafe knew Sami wasn't talking about him and Emily and noted how they loved and trusted each other.

"You expect me to believe that my own mother tried to kill my wife?" barked Lucas. Daniel explained that Kate knew about his affair with Chloe and wanted revenge. Lucas wondered why Kate hadn't told him anything. Daniel reminded Lucas how he fell off the wagon and almost got himself killed when Chloe broke off their engagement. Lucas didn't get why Kate hired Chloe and Daniel to work for Hearth and Home. Daniel explained Kate did all this to avenge Lucas's honor. Lucas accused Daniel of trying to kill Chloe and framing Kate. He noted Chloe was onto him. That's why she told Lexie to keep Daniel away from her. Daniel called Lucas "a fool." If he really loved Chloe, he'd keep Kate away from her. Daniel asked Lucas to have Lexie come see him. He had ideas on how to treat Chloe. Lucas refused. Daniel swore Chloe would admit the two of them were in love and that she was going to leave Lucas for him, if she survived.

Kate returned to Chloe's room and rambled on about Daniel. "I think I was falling in love with our Daniel, but now neither of us will ever have him because of you," sighed Kate.

Meredith wrote to Sami about how Emily and Rafe went out for a drive on their wedding day, but the car smashed into a tree and Emily was declared dead on the scene. "If only my sister had known what Rafe was really like, maybe she'd be with us," wrote Meredith, noting that when Sami got this letter Rafe would think her revenge was over, but he'd be wrong.
