35 minutes - another good show
Outside police station. John asks Brady to not plead guilty till we know all about the story. Maybe someone else hit Sarah. John tries to talk Brady, but Brady is adamant, he is pleading guilty. Outside the all-purpose interrogation room, EJ is on the phone, he wants EVERYONE to work all night as he needs all the ducks in a row before that arraignment tomorrow morning. Brady Black must pay for what he’s done. Eric walks in and overhears part of the conversation and calls EJ a vindictive son of a b-word.
Replay of Holly finding out about her real daddy’s demise. In her precious outrageous indignation, and now the bubble has been broken, what about Eric?
Maggie and Justin's replay of why didn’t Brady call his sponsor. Maggie takes this on as her fault, how could he drive drunk? Justin also can’t believe that A. Brady would drive drunk, and B. Brady would drive off without helping Sarah. Maggie hears that Brady doesn’t remember driving or hitting Sarah. She thinks well, maybe Brady didn’t do it.
Fiona, Sarah and Xander in Sarah and Xander’s room. Sarah gets that flash again. Sarah says again, I remember, Fiona looks scared.
John tries a new tack on Brady, this will be the rest of your life, how will Tate handle his mom being shipped off to jail, and now you? Brady is eaten with guilt.
Xander tries to coax memories out of Sarah, against his mother’s wishes. Sarah remembers walking, hearing the car, and seeing the driver. No, it wasn’t Brady.
EJ is ever so kind to Eric; he asks after his wife and son and their pauper’s trip to Paris. Eric reminds EJ that Nicole is EJ’s soon to be ex-wife and Jude is HIS son. EJ brings up that Eric and Sarah were at one point in the not so recent past an item. He wants to know where Eric’s compassion is for the victim’s family? EJ says he isn’t surprised that Eric would cross an ocean to defend his brother for getting drunk and running over an innocent person considering you committed the exact same crime. It appears that vehicular homicide runs in the family. Brady should take heart as he only crippled Sarah.
Holly demands to know what Tate meant. Tate thought she knew. What are you keeping from me, we don’t keep secrets. Tate tells Holly that Eric was the drunk driver who killed her dad. Holly thinks Tate is making this up, but Tate would never lie to her. It’s a big family secret. Tate overheard his mom and Grandma Kim talking about it when he was a kid. Holly’s world has shattered. She rants and calls Eric, Nicole’s Beloved Saint Eric.
Justin and Maggie talk about how Brady was once in Maggie’s shoes, when they thought that Maggie had killed his wonderful Adrienne and Sarah’s baby? Remember? But then Maggie was found innocent. Maggie reminds everyone how that (bad word) Orpheus had framed her by putting her in the driver’s seat and framed Maggie as the driver. Justin of course remembers, but there is no evidence supporting someone framing Brady. Maggie can’t believe someone with a kind heart would drive off.
Xander questions Sarah, you didn’t see Brady, no, there was a glare, but I don’t remember a face. Xander believes she might remember more if they keep talking about it. Sarah doesn’t remember a clear face. Fiona thinks badgering Sarah won’t get anywhere because we all know Brady Black did this to her.
EJ’s smugness and lack of self-awareness of his evil deeds, is a pleasure to watch as he rakes Eric over the coals for killing Dr. Dan the Tan Man. EJ asks if Eric ever thinks about Dr. Jonas’ death as he lies next to Nicole? Perhaps Eric can offer absolution or say a few rosaries, but that won’t cut it for the DA’s office. Apparently, Brady will be in jail for the rest of his life (at best with this being his first offense and the victim lived, life in prison is really a stretch, 6 months with a boatload of conditions is more like it. But then this is Salem). Eric tells EJ that Nicole has fast tracked her divorce. EJ should be getting his final papers any day now. EJ storms off.
John comes out of the all-purpose interrogation room, very happy to see Eric, they hug. John asks after Nicole and Jude. They are doing fine, settling into life in Paris. John says looks like that based on all the smiling faces in the pictures you send us. John tells of Brady insisting on pleading guilty, then begs Eric to talk some sense into him.
Brady flashes back to the Small Bar and Fiona. The cop alerts Brady to another visitor, he doesn’t want to see anyone. Eric walks in and says not even your brother? The boys hug.
Holly is trying to take in that Eric did what Tate is telling her. Tate tells her that he heard that Eric was tormented by the fact that he killed someone. Was, was, as in past tense? I’m glad he found a way to get over killing my dad and now he’s ready to move on with my mother and their precious new baby. Tate tries to get Holly to take a breath and think about it. But Holly is deep in her grief.
Justin arrives at the police station, chats with John on how Brady is going to plead guilty at the arraignment tomorrow. Justin thinks that maybe the mind they need to change isn’t Brady’s.
Back in the all-purpose interrogation room, the brothers continue to hug and pound backs. Brady wants to know why Eric is there? Eric came alone so he could put all of his focus towards helping Eric.
Xander tells his mom that a positive ID from Sarah would go a long way in putting Brady away. Fiona suggests that Xander get some leek and potato soup for Sarah as she gets Sarah ready for a long rest. Sarah agrees the soup sounds lovely, so Xander goes to get it. Fiona tells Sarah, ahhh, alone at last.
Brady is somewhat surprised that Eric isn’t there to talk him out of pleading guilty. Eric replies he is not if there is anyone who knows you must atone for your sins, it would be me. Brady takes a deep breath and says yes, of course you do. Eric reminds viewers that Holly lost her father and Maggie lost her son, because I drove drunk.
Eric asks are you sure you were the one driving? Brady remembers being in a drunken stupor. Eric will be here for Brady. He needs to find Holly and finally tell her he is the one who killed her father. (For new viewers, Holly was a frozen embryo when Dr. Daniel Jonas was killed. She never knew her father at all. Unless the writers choose to change that story.) Holly asks Tate to leave because she needs to be alone. Tate leaves her. Holly breaks down.
Justin and John finish their conversation, EJ walks in and tells Justin he will not go for a plea deal, he is going to throw the book at Justin’s client. Justin reminds EJ that he has nothing for this case. EJ counters with a confession, he has a confession from a man who was blind drunk and ran over Sarah. Justin reminds EJ that anyone can walk in and confess to any crime, but without witnesses or any evidence that leads to reasonable doubt, which leads to an acquittal. Save yourself the time and energy, EJ, and drop the charges.
Xander come down, and talks with Maggie. Maggie asks if Sarah knows who was driving? They talk about the greatness of the soup.
Fiona is talking to a sleeping Sarah and wiping her forehead.
FINALLY, Holly Bolly looks up the facts of her dad’s death. It’s true, charming Eric killed her daddy.
John walks in on Tate, looking at a news story of Brady running down Sarah. They discuss Brady taking responsibility for the hit and run. John thinks it will all come down to one volatile person.
Back at the police station, EJ is questioning Brady's sobriety. What makes Justin think EJ would even consider releasing Brady? When we both know he is guilty as sin. Justin points out that EJ can’t place Brady or his car at the scene, the victim doesn’t remember who hit her, Brady has no actual memory of driving the car or hitting the victim, and there there’s the fact you can’t produce the car.
EJ counters that the car was reported stolen, but we both know your client most likely made it go poof, disappear. EJ is now going to add destruction of evidence. Justin reminds EJ that he can’t prove any of that. He tells EJ that the case is built on a castle of sand.
Maggie doesn’t want Sarah to be pushed into remembering who hit her. She tells Xander that Sarah will remember eventually. Xander gets all mushy about having Maggie and Fiona in his life.
Fiona is singing lullabies to Sarah while playing with her hair.
Justin walks into the all-purpose interrogation room. Brady tells him that it won’t work, he won’t pull his confession. Justin tells him it’s time to leave, there won’t be a trial. EJ walks in all alpha male and demands to know why Brady is still there? Justin tells Brady that he has convinced their esteemed District Attorney to not bring the case based on circumstantial evidence and your rather tenuous recollection of the event. EJ tells Brady that once the Salem PD finds the evidence, he will haul his *bleep* back into court.
Tate can’t believe that they are basing their hopes on the one man in Salem who hates dad more than Xander. John tells him to keep the faith. Then he asks what else is getting Tate down. John knows that something is bothering him. Tate confesses to be an idiot, and tells Grandpa that he told Holly something that he shouldn’t have.
Holly is now talking to the bushes in the park about Eric killing her dad. Eric walks up and knows something is wrong.
Xander and Maggie talk about Fiona and how much Xander resented her. Xander can see the good in his mom. Maggie thinks Fiona is a Godsend.
Fiona continues singing to Sarah. As she moves a pillow into position to smother Sarah, she asks for forgiveness before doing so.
