Okay, no more schemes,

Last time, you had me faking
a brain tumor.

with Nicole.
That might soften her up.

I'm leaving now.

please, Lucas.
I have to protect my brother.
Okay?
He deserves to know that
his wife cheated on him.
>> Lucas: You don't even
know that for sure.
>> Sami: Well, I'm getting close
to proving it.
I went to the manager at the
Salem Inn, and he said that
Nicole did not book a room
under her own name, so she must
have been in Xander's room.
And when I busted her on it,
she produced some hinky receipt
saying that she charged the room
to Basic Black.
>> Lucas: Well, see,
there you go.
That explains it.
>> Sami: No, that receipt
is fake, just like she is.
>> Lucas: You need to stop.
You need to stop obsessing
over this--enough.
>> Sami: Nicole broke her vows.
She cheated on her husband, and
she shouldn't get away with it.
>> Lucas: What is this
about, really?
Is this because Nicole
cheated on Eric?
Or because you cheated on EJ?
>> Gwen: I'm sorry, I--
I misunderstood.
You haven't spoken with Xander?
>> Kayla: No.
This information came
from someone who witnessed
an interaction between
you and Dr. Snyder.
Thought it seemed tense
and possibly threatening.
>> Gwen: It was Tripp, wasn't it? >> Kayla: He thought
you seemed upset.
And he was concerned about you.
So if Dr. Snyder is doing
anything that is making you feel
uncomfortable, you can tell me,
and I will make sure that he
never bothers you again.
>> Snyder: There must be
some misunderstanding.
I would never suggest a patient
share their prescribed
medications with anyone.
>> Xander: Save the
innocent act, Doc.
You're pushing pills.
And forcing Gwen to be
your drug mule.
>> Snyder: [laughing]
Ah, wow, that's--
that's ridiculous.
I'm not sure what kind
of fairy tales--
>> Xander: Hey.
I'm not a cop, okay?
I really don't give a damn
if you are running an illegal
drug ring out of this hospital.
Just leave Gwen out of it.
Understand?
>> Snyder: You're the one that
needs to understand.
I'm not forcing Ms. Rizczech
to do anything.
She and I have a mutually
beneficial arrangement.
She runs errands for me, and I,
in return, keep her secret
about her miscarriage.
>> Xander: What secret
about her miscarriage?
>> Gwen: It's very kind of you to be concerned, but, um, I think Tripp misread
the situation.
>> Kayla: So you weren't upset?
>> Gwen: Ah.
I was, only because, um, talking
about what happened, losing my
baby, well, it's still
quite difficult.
>> Kayla: Of course.
So you don't think that
Dr. Snyder did
anything inappropriate?
>> Gwen: He doesn't have the
best bedside manner, but, um,
no, I have no complaints.
>> Kayla: Okay, then.
In that case, I will head back
to the hospital.
>> Gwen: I appreciate you
reaching out.
I know I'm not your favorite
person, considering how close
you are with Abigail.
>> Kayla: Whatever happened
between the two--
>> Gwen: What happened between
us is that she caused me
to lose my baby.
>> Kayla: If you feel at all
that you are being mistreated
at the hospital, please,
do come to me, all right?
>> Gwen: Thank you.
I'm sorry I snapped just now.
>> Kayla: Okay.
Tell me, why did you think that
I was talking about
Xander before?
>> Gwen: Um...
[laughs]
'Cause he's always stirring up
trouble, isn't he?
He's just poking his nose
where it doesn't belong.
>> Snyder: Hmm.
Apparently Ms. Rizczech hasn't
told you the whole story.
>> Xander: So enlighten me.
>> Snyder: You're not suggesting
that I break doctor-patient
confidentiality, are you?
>> Xander: Why not?
I mean, I don't suspect that
ethics are especially high
on your list of
priorities, are they?
>> Snyder: Hmm.
I think we're done here.
>> Xander: But you haven't
fixed my problem.
>> Snyder: Uh, in my
professional opinion,
mind your own damn business.
>> Xander: But Gwen is my
business, like I told you.
She's the daughter
of my best friend.
And if you mess with her,
you mess with me.
>> Snyder: You don't
intimidate me, Mr. Cook.
Must be the paper gown, mate.

Leave Gwen alone.
Or you're the one who'll be

>> Sami: Oh, you needed me
to do that 'cause I had to fix
the mess that you made.
>> Lucas: Well, you wanted
my help; I gave it to you.
>> Sami: See?
This is where we always end up.
>> Lucas: This is where we tear
each other's clothes off and--
>> Sami: Okay, no,
we're bickering.
That's what's happening.
>> Lucas: No, it's not
bickering; it's called magic.
That's what we have.
It's honest, it's real,
and it's passionate.
And I have never had it
with anybody but you.
And I want it again.
>> Sami: Just--I just have
a small problem of the fact
that I am married, you know?
I--I have a husband, and what
EJ and I had was--
>> Lucas: What you had.
You just said "what you had."
Like past tense.
Not now; I'm here now.
I'm your present.
I'm all in if you are.
>> Snyder: Well, Dr. Johnson, of course, I have absolutely no problem with you accessing
your niece's records.
But I am afraid those records
are not yet in the system.
My fault; I--
I handwrite everything.
A little old-fashioned that way,
but I will make sure and have
those records uploaded
as soon as possible.
>> Kayla: I appreciate that.
>> Snyder: Yeah, of course.

>> Gwen: You do not bring up my miscarriage ever again. Do you hear me?
I understand that it's
a touchy subject--
>> Gwen: I lost a child,
you heartless cretin.
You have no idea
what that is like.
>> Xander: I don't.
That's true.
But I did help Sarah raise
a baby for a year, and I--
I loved that little girl
like she was my own.
Then we had to give her up.
I'm not saying it's the
same thing, but I can imagine
just a little bit.
The pain you must be
going through.
And this son of a bitch Snyder's
making it worse.
So if you change your mind and
decide you do want some help,
you just let me know.
>> Chanel: What is it? >> Paulina: Um. I just wanted to say...
I'm very proud of you.
And I just know you and your
bakery will be the biggest
thing to ever hit Salem.
[laughs]
>> Chanel: Knowing you believe
in me after all the times
I screwed up makes me feel
like I can do anything.
>> Paulina: Mm-hmm.
>> Chanel: Now let's go
rock some pies!
[both laugh]
>> Paulina: [chuckles]
[sighs]
Mm-hmm.
>> Nicole: Oh, God. I can't do it. I can't lose you, Eric.

>> Lucas: We have a second chance here. >> Sami: [scoffs]
Don't you mean more like
a sixth or seventh chance?
>> Lucas: I don't care how many
times it's been.
I think what we have is amazing,
and I would love to get it back.
>> Sami: What are you doing?
>> Lucas: Giving you
the Lucas eyes.
Is it working?
>> Sami: Stop it.
If you remember, we don't
exactly do "happily ever after"
very well.
>> Lucas: So let's do
"crazily ever after."
Okay, I don't care as long
as I'm with you.
What do you say?
>> Sami: Oh, Lucas. [knock at door] >> Sami: My God.
Do you think that's EJ?
>> Lucas: Oh, stop.
Paranoid much?
It's probably Rafe again.
You said the same thing
last time.
>> Sami: Right.
Right, of course.
I'm just being silly.
I mean, it couldn't
possibly be--
EJ.
