Theresa’s (Emily O’Brien) return took both Tate (Leo Howard) and Brady (Eric Martsolf) by surprise, but it was Theresa who was in for a shock when she learned that her son got Sophia (Rachel Boyd) pregnant. To make matters worse, when Tate revealed their adoption plans, Theresa was against it.
In the square, Holly (Ashley Puzemis) and Doug III (Peyton Meyer) learned that Melinda (Tina Huang) had purchased Julie’s (Susan Seaforth Hayes) necklace and failed at getting her to sell it back to them.
After Rachel Blake (Roslyn Gentle) showed up at Ava’s (Tamara Braun), she whacked out a knife and sliced Ava’s arm just as Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) arrived on the scene.
After Rafe (Galen Gering) and Jada (Elia Cantu) discussed the motives behind what EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) did to them, Rafe decided to leave the hospital and confront his nemesis by strangling him.

When Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) ran into Belle (Martha Madison) and Paulina (Jackée Harry) in the square, she confronted them about putting EJ away. After Gabi exposed Belle’s recent fling with EJ, Paulina considered taking Belle off the case.
Meanwhile, at the PCPD, JJ (Casey Moss) and Shawn (Brandon Beemer) discussed Gabi’s need for vengeance and then Shawn confessed that he slept with Jada.
Brady showed up to Ava’s and noticed the chaos. While Kristen took her mother home, Brady tried convincing Ava not to go to the police. After Rachel Blake got home and reminded EJ she knew what he did at Aremid, he realized the only way to keep Rachel Blake from revealing what he did was to inject her with the memory-wiping serum.

Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) was welcomed back to Titan by Xander (Paul Telfer) and Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier), who let him in on their plan to take DiMera.
When Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins) ran into Stephanie (Abigail Klein) at the pub, Stephanie revealed she knew she may be pregnant. Their back and forth ended with Joy going to the hospital to get her test results while Stephanie admitted to Alex that Joy could be pregnant. After Joy received her results, she went to Stephanie’s to let them know she wasn’t pregnant. When she left, she looked at her results that said she was positive.
When Chad (Billy Flynn, who shocked fans with his exit news) showed up at Cat’s (AnnaLynne McCord) apartment, he was greeted by Cat in a towel. Felicity (Kennedy Garcia) let it slip that her sister has feelings for Chad, but Cat blew it off. Later, as they planned the hospital fundraiser, Cat proposed that Chad sign on as an eligible bachelor for the auction, and he agreed on one condition: Cat would be the bachelorette.
Elsewhere, Javi (Al Calderon) suggested to Leo (Greg Rikaart) that he write an article about what EJ did to Rafe. Later, things took a twist when room service arrived, but instead of food, they left Leo’s big bill that he’s wracked up since losing his job. When Javi found out, he asked his boyfriend to move in with him.

As EJ pondered about using the serum on Rachel Blake, Johnny (Carson Boatman) entered the room blaming his father for the disastrous lunch with Amy (Shi Ne Nielson). Meanwhile, Paulina listened to Chanel’s (Raven Bowens) frustrations over EJ.
Marlena (Deidre Hall) prepared to leave to find John (the late Drake Hogestyn), but not before updating Belle on her plans. Meanwhile, Steve (Stephen Nichols) and Roman (Josh Taylor) discussed what happened with Rafe, infuriating Roman to the point that he slipped to Johnny that EJ was as bad as Arnold.
When Theresa and Tate ran into Amy, she confronted Theresa about her time in prison. Later, Paulina met with Amy to talk about their shared disapproval of EJ.

After EJ arrived at Belle’s door, Belle ordered him to stay away from her, then the two hopped into bed. Later, when EJ’s case was brought up, Belle kicked him out, then called Paulina to recuse herself from his case.
Over at the pub, Roman realized he’d said too much and tried walking it back, but Johnny pressed him for information. Roman revealed EJ was a rapist like Arnold, then refused to say anymore. When Kate (Lauren Koslow) came in, Johnny asked her about it and she admitted to him that EJ raped Sami (Alison Sweeney), resulting in his existence. Furious, Johnny stormed home and threw a punch at his father.
Elsewhere, Tate and Sophia learned that Amy and Paulina had hit it off, while Holly suggested to Doug III that they steal the necklace back from Melinda.
