Pub - Roman hangs a "Help Wanted" sign in the window. Harris needs to talk to him. He questions Roman's apparent "no overnight guest" policy. Roman ejected Ava not because of her murdering his father, but because it upset Kayla. He relents and will allow Ava to stay temporarily.
Remember When this Was Eric's Apartment? Apartment - Ava has made coffee as Tripp and Wendy enter. She has prepared make-your-own omelets. Ava is thankful they're letting her stay here. She says Roman wouldn't let her stay at the Pub because of "history" and will figure out something. Tripp can't eat because he and Wendy are meeting Stephanie. Ava tries to clean up, Wendy won't let her. Ava has leads on a place and leaves. Wendy wants to stay home alone and claims she's not feeling well.
DiMansion - Kristen is boozing even though it's early. Stefan is leaving for the Bistro's soft re-opening. He's hoping to re-invent the Bistro. Kristen will be head of DiMera if she can prove Gabi is innocent. They rehash the relatable plot of Li keeping Stefan's frozen corpse for leverage and Kristen rewiring his brain to love Chloe. Stefan has hired PIs who have come up empty, but Kristen thinks she can solve the crime.
Square Walkway Area - Stephanie calls to Jada to give her great news. Everett has signed the divorce papers.
Salem Inn, Everett/Bobby's room - Everett/Bobby looks at the papers (Jada signed "Jada Hunter Stein"). His facial expression changes and he throws down the papers.
Square Walkway Area - Bobby/Everett saunters up. His carriage is different. He says hi to Jada and barely acknowledges Stephanie. He's getting coffee and doesn't have the papers with him, then he swaggers away. Stephanie thinks this was odd, Tripp comes up. Jada leaves to meet Rafe.
Square - Ava and Harris talk. She won't stay at Tripp's another night, will look for apartments. Harris gives her the news. She can stay with him at the Pub until she finds her own place. They work on a plan to get Clyde's book from the Bistro.
Bistro - Stefan enters and Rafe is sitting at a table. Stefan talks up the menu, Rafe threatens him.
Pub - Bobby/Everett is working as he decides which story to write (Smith Island Snowstorm or Dirty Cop Goldman). He settles on Smith Island, writes Everett Lynch on the paper, and Stephanie and Tripp enter. He talks to them differently than he talked to Jada outside, and seems not to acknowledge that he just saw Stephanie outside. He wants to do an article on the beer tank incident, Tripp doesn't think he is ready.
Shin/Dalton-Johnson Apartment - Kristen arrives to talk to Wendy. She is concerned about DiMera and Wei Shin's grief over his only son's death. Kristen says she wants to start an MBA scholarship in Li's honor. Wendy seems suspicious, but thinks her parents would be touched. Kristen helps herself to a seat. Later, she thinks she can have the scholarship running so students can get it in the fall.
Kristen talks about the two men (Li and Gil) who were attacked here, one of whom died here. She thinks it's sad nobody got justice for Li. Wendy believes Gabi killed him. They recap Wendy finding Gabi with the knife, betraying Li, etc. Kristen lays it on thick. When Wendy tries to turn the conversation around, Kristen scurries off. When she's alone, Wendy leans against the door and cries.
Pub - Roman asks Tripp how he's doing? Tripp isn't sure how to respond when asked. Roman wants him to take care of himself and lets him know about Ava. Stephanie asks about Wendy's struggling with PTSD. Tripp hopes Ava is staying out of trouble, but acknowledges her history suggests otherwise. Stephanie is worried about her brother. Tripp is having trouble concentrating, experiencing PTSD as well. Despite his issues, Wendy is struggling more. Stephanie thinks Wendy and Tripp need space from Ava, maybe a vacation.
Bistro - Rafe is still waiting on Jada somehow when Harris and Ava enter. They are chatting for a moment when Jada enters. Jada mentions moving in. Harris is complimentary. Ava feels threatend by Jada, lets her know she lived at Rafe's. She and Harris sit, Harris doesn't like her pushing Jada's buttons. Later, he goes to search. Stefan comes out and they trade barbs about the food. Over at Rafe's table, Jada wants to dish about Harris and Ava but Stefan's glare is concerning Rafe. Jada delivers her big news about Bobby, who will be finally out of her life for good.
Bistro, still - Ava returns to her table having searched the ladies room. She wants to engage Stefan in the search, Harris says no way.
Apartment 42 - Tripp can't enter. Wendy has the chain on and is talking to Wei (it has to be after 2AM in Hong Kong). She lets Tripp in, ends her call and weeps about how sad her dad is. Tripp shows her tickets to Hong Kong (on his phone). She is happy, always wants him there with her, they hug.
Pub - Stephanie is just getting up from the lunch she had with Tripp, Everett/ Bobby is still working. Stephanie is angry at him for ignoring her outside and being "Mr Friendly" inside. Everett/Bobby wasn't aware. Guess the emotion will not be possible today. Stephanie's reactions don't track either, but she's mad as Everett/Bobby leaves.
DiMansion - Kristen calls Wei Shin, talks about the scholarship and how much she admired Li.
Apartment 42 - Tripp explains he's gotten a leave from Kayla, and with Clyde gone and Harris looking after Ava, it is safe for him to jet to Hong Kong. They kiss.
Square - Ava and Harris have searched all available locations. They decide to commit a felony. (Harris cites 15th century philosophy because we're totally buying he's a smart character.)
Salem Inn, Lynch/Stein Quarters - Bobby/Everett swaggers in, pelvis first, picks the papers off the floor and tosses them back when someone's at the door. It's Rafe and Jada. She wants the papers. Will he get them? Yes. Then let's. OK. They do. Jada examines them. They look good. Rafe thanks Bobby/Everett/whoever he is these days. Rafe and Jada leave. Bobby/Everett looks at a picture of him with Jada on his phone. END.
