Carrie/Austin/Sami/Lucas/Jamie

Sami tells Marlena she'll legally divorce her if she tries to interfere in her life. Marlena tells her therapist how worried about her she is. The therapist tells her of a young man who student services referred to him (Alan) and that this guy, who wouldn't give his name is obsessed with a girl (Carrie) and he's worried about what this guy could do. He asks Marlena is she'll see this young man.

Austin goes to see Kate and she asks him lots of questions about his life. She offers him a weekly column to write for Bella about his and Jenn's show. He's excited but worried that Billie will feel rejected by him. He tells Kate if she really wants to reach out to Billie, give her Countess Willhemina back. She says it's undergone too many changes since she took it over and it would be too much for Billie to manage. He says he feels he can't do it to Billie to join Kate's company because it would upset her too much. Lucas is mad that she made the offer at all and tells her there's not room for both him and Austin in the company.

Austin and Carrie plan their trip to the snow.

Sami gets ready for the frat party that night with Alan. Alan bumps into the therapist (in Salem square where all professional meetings are conducted) who says there's another psychiatrist he wants Alan to see. He goes off to get Marlena but when Alan sees who he's going to get he takes off.

Lucas goes to see Bill to ask him if he knew who his mother might have been seeing when she lived in Salem (he saw Bill's name down as his Mum's doctor after Curtis had beaten her once). Bill says he doesn't know, Lucas leaves and Bill says he can't do this anymore and runs after him.

David Caldwell rings to make another appointment time with Kate because the tape of their last session seems to be blank. She goes ballistic that he taped the session and fires him.

Ivan tells Vivian that he listened to the rest of the tape which she didn't bother to listen to because she thought she'd heard all the juicy stuff. He tells her it reveals all of Kate's secrets. Vivian gives the tape of Kate talking to David Caldwell to Fisher Andrews, a reporter for "The Intruder". Bill tells Laura he can't not tell Lucas he's his father. He says he truly loves her and he doesn't see why they can't all be happy. She decides to believe him. He asks her to go with him to the party that's being thrown to thank Kate and Victor for a large donation to the hospital. She says no but changes her mind after he leaves. At the party Lucas is still asking Kate to tell him who his dad is but she tells him this isn't the time to talk about it. Kate talks to Bill on the balcony asking him not to tell Lucas the truth yet. They get locked on the balcony and while Bill comforts Kate Laura arrives. Vivian steers her to the balcony where she sees Bill and Kate and tells her Bill will never be truthful and that she should spill the beans on him tonight.

At the party to celebrate Billie's freedom, Laura reveals publicly about Bill and Kate's affair and that he's Lucas's father. Fisher Andrews tops it up with the tape of Kate telling David Caldwell that Curtis hadn't divorced her so her marriage to Victor isn't legal. Everyone's angry at Bill, Mickey remembering when Bill took Laura from him, Jenn angry at him, Lucas won't speak to him. Victor tells Kate he's not coming home tonight and leaves while Vivian gloats. Lucas yells at Kate for her and Bill not having told him the truth. Marlena tries to convince Kate to fight to keep her marriage but Kate says it's up to Victor now. Jenn yells at Bill for what he did, saying she always thought he was so perfect and thought of her family that way and it was all a lie. He packs his bag and leaves. Vivian is happy with the newspaper clippings on Kate. She asks Victor out for dinner. Victor tells Kate they need to sort the mess out and then he'll decide about their relationship. Bill leaves Salem

Lucas bangs into Austin's car and it won't start which means he can't drive to the mountains for his and Carrie's night there. Alan offers to help fix it.

Alan fixes Austin's car so it will break down on the way to the lodge. He calls the police because he's also terrified of what he's doing. Marlena is there so she speaks to him to try to talk him out of the rape he says he's going to do. After he hangs up he goes to the frat party with Sami and gets her drunk so she'll pass out and won't remember he wasn't there. He heads up to the mountains. Austin's car breaks down on the way and Carrie is there waiting for him.

Alan goes the the lodge to rape Carrie but Austin manages to hitch a ride and get there so Alan decides it'll have to be Sami instead and goes back to the party where she is semi-conscious.

Carrie and Austin share champagne and make love at Green Mountain Lodge for the first time.

Marlena worries about Carrie and Sami in light of the rapist out there. There is a report of a woman's scream from the frat party so Roman and Abe (the two most senior police at the station) go to check it out. It's nothing but will he see Sami there?

Sami has a bad hangover after the party. Alan comes to see her at school and she tells him she's sure he was away from the party for a long time but he says it was only a short while and she was just too drunk to tell. He says to her that they should do something by themselves like dinner.

Carrie and Austin have made love and are very happy, though concerned about the rapist after Sami rings to say hi and tells Carrie about it.

Jamie's father comes to Billie's lunch and as they leave Jamie turns and looks at Billie and Billie realises that Jamie is being abused by her father.

Carrie and Ausin return from their trip and everyone is happy to see how happy and in love they are (except Alan of course).

Sami and Roman decide to go to a Marx brothers film, something he and Marlena used to always do at the annual festival. Alan turns up there in costume and Sami sees him but then he disappears. Caroline finds out Sami and Roman are there and persuades Marlena that she should go to the festival, not telling her the others are there. Sami goes out to find Alan and Marlena moves down a few rows not realising she's next to Roman. They see each other and realise what Caroline did.

Billie worries that Jamie is being abused by her father and Bo says he'll quietly look into whether any domestic violence complaints have ever been made by the Caldwells.

Carrie and Austin can't bear to be away from each other during the day. Austin asks Kate to let Billie become part of the company. She says she'll think about it after the IVF. Lucas hears Austin tell Carrie about it and says "no way". He asks Kate about it and Kate flippantly says not to worry, as far as she's concerned the company is his. He goes off very smug.

Dr. Mike Horton returns to Salem without Robin and Jeremy and reunites with Jenn and his Mum. *(see note above)

Bo can't find anything on David Caldwell but Billie remains convinced Jamie is being abused. Billie asks about the necklace David Caldwell bought for Jamie because he said she "deserved" it. She asks Jamie if her Mum thinks she deserved it to, sending a clear message to Jamie that she knows what's going on. Billie goes to apologise to David Caldwell, not knowing Jamie is hiding under the desk in his office. He tells Billie he should sue her and to get out and after she goes he moves to touch Jamie and she says "No!".

Austin and Carrie babysit Belle and Brady and tell each other how much they love each other. They come to terms with their new relationship and how it feels "playing house". Austin hints he'd like to do more than just "play" house. Roman goes to see Marlena but when he gets there Carrie tells him she went to New Orleans.

Austin says to Billie that if she wants to start a new company he bets Kate would invest. She tells him where to go. Kate likes Lucas's proposal for Countess Willhemena and says one day the company will be his. He asks her to promise Billie will never work there (after Billie tries to rearrange his display at the mall so it'll look better and sell better) and Kate promises. Billie then bites the bullet and decides to ask Kate for a job so she can achieve her dream from the ground up. Kate is trying to relax for her IVF appointment and knows seeing Billie will stress her so she tells Billie to leave and when Billie keeps trying to talk to her she tells her to get out!

Kate refuses to give Billie a job because of promising Countess Wilhelmina to Lucas. They argue and Lucas comes in and calls Billie a tramp and tells her to leave.

Austin and Carrie do a photo session of themselves at Titan and Carrie goes to take them to get processed and Lucas comes in and is his usual revolting self to Austin.

Billie runs into Jamie at the mall and apologizes for accusing her dad of molesting her last night (if that was last night then this 24 hour period has lasted a week). Jamie says it's o.k. and she's sure her dad will forgive her. Jamie goes and tells her dad and he begins to molest her. Meanwhile Billie decides to see if David Caldwell might still want to back her in a new company and goes over to see him. Billie springs on them as David Caldwell is about to molest Jamie. Jamie runs out and runs into Bo and nearly tells him but doesn't. David Caldwell grabs Billie and says he's going to make sure she doesn't tell anyone.

Maison Blanche/Philip's Conception

Tony and Kristen decide to get away and to visit some of the houses they inherited. She decides to start with Maison Blanche.

Kate decides to undergo Invitro Fertilization in order to give Victor a son. Kate's IVF file is moved to Salem so she can do it all there.

Roman and Marlena meet with their lawyers to split their possessions up. They share happy memories about things they bought together. Mickey tells them they don't really need divorce lawyers they need a marriage counsellor but Roman is determined to go ahead with the divorce.

John asks Marlena to hypnotise him to see if can remember details of where Stefano is hiding. Jenn has tea with Kristen, Tony and Peter are there and they arrange to leave Jenn and Peter alone but she tells him she can't see him anymore. Kristen asks her to think carefully about this as she's never seen Peter care for anyone like this before. Kristen prepares to go away to get away from all the stress. Peter and Tony don't realise she's heading for Maison Blanche.

Marlena sees Kate and Victor at the hospital where the doctor has told them he'll only try the IVF once. She warns Kate if she's so stressed it may not work.

Vivian gives the tape of Kate talking to David Caldwell to Fisher Andrews, a reporter for "The Intruder". Bill tells Laura he can't not tell Lucas he's his father. He says he truly loves her and he doesn't see why they can't all be happy. She decides to believe him. He asks her to go with him to the party that's being thrown to thank Kate and Victor for a large donation to the hospital. She says no but changes her mind after he leaves. At the party Lucas is still asking Kate to tell him who his dad is but she tells him this isn't the time to talk about it. Kate talks to Bill on the balcony asking him not to tell Lucas the truth yet. They get locked on the balcony and while Bill comforts Kate Laura arrives. Vivian steers her to the balcony where she sees Bill and Kate and tells her Bill will never be truthful and that she should spill the beans on him tonight.

Marlena hypnotises John but he gets upset and she brings him out of it. She suggests a glass of wine to relax him. While he's getting wine Roman arrives to give her a photo he found of her and Belle which he didn't want to get smashed in the boxes. John and Marlena tell him they're trying to find out where Stefano's hiding by hypnotising John. John tells him Stefano rang him the other day and Roman finally believes he's alive so he stays for the hypnosis. John starts remembering a light in a window of a house (Maison Blanche).

At Maison Blanche Stefano sitting in a chair behind his desk facing the wall rather than the desk. He's gloating that soon it'll be just the two of them, him and John, when Kristen walks into the room calling out "Hello, is anybody there?"

Under hypnosis John remembers details of Maison Blanche. Roman thinks he's been there while captive and remembers a nearby sign that said "Tolley Imports/Exports". John tracks the name down to New Orleans and says he's going down there to beat Stefano at his game by turning up early.

At Maison Blanche Kristen is in the room where Stefano is sitting when the housekeeper, Celeste walks in. She switches the light off so Stefano can get out. Celeste tries to discourage Kristen from staying there, but Kristen is determined and Stefano tells Celeste he wants Kristen to stay because he's missed her so much. He says there are plenty of hidden passages for him to hide. He watches Kristen from one.

Kristen tells Tony on the 'phone how she wishes Billie could get her company back. John tells Victor he's going to find Stefano and Victor tells him to be careful, that their friendship means a lot to him. Celeste drugs Kristen so Stefano can sneak out of Maison Blanche. She is urging him to rush because of John but he says it'll be ages before John gets to there. As he speaks John arrives and starts going through the house, finding the jigsaw puzzle. With a gun he goes through the house and into Kristen's room.

Victor goes out with Vivian to the Penthouse Grille. Kate is there getting drunk. Tony asks her if he can buy Countess Willhemena and tells her if her luck changes tonight it'll be because of him so to think about selling the company to him. Billie and Bo go there for dinner too and Kate tries to talk to Billie but Billie says now she knows why Kate hated her so much, she is exactly like the names she called Billie. Then Vivian gloats to her about Victor so Kate pulls her wig off. Tony tells Victor the wounds will heal and doesn't he want a future and a son with Kate. Victor goes to Kate and tells her they'll talk properly tomorrow. Tony sends a bottle of wine anonymously to Bo and Billie and Billie says she feels like someone is watching over her.

Marlena worries about John and Abe makes Roman admit that he is too and wonders why John didn't contact the local police when he arrived in New Orleans.

John finds Kristen drugged and wants to get her to a doctor but he remembers the voice of the woman calling him Johnny and asking for help and he runs around looking for her. He finds the diary Stefano left behind detailing his life. When he goes back to the room to get Kristen Stefano is there waiting for him with a gun.

Victor tells Kate he still hasn't made a decision about their marriage but he'll make it by tonight. Kate goes to Caroline to ask her to speak to Victor on her behalf. Caroline says no but then changes her mind and goes to see Victor. Vivian is there having wangled a dinner with him, though he refused the suggestion of a cruise around the Greek islands.

John wakes up locked in a dungeon. Stefano tells him over a television screen that he's going to train him to be his pawn again. Kristen wakes up and can't believe she's been asleep for 24 hours. Then she finds blood in her room. Celeste pretends she cut herself. Stefano tells Celeste to get her to go back to Salem. Celeste tells Kristen to stay in her room and rest and Kristen wonders why it's so important to Celeste that she doesn't come out of her room. Marlena asks Tony if Stefano is still alive and he says no. Marlena worries about John. And about Laura's fragility. Tony tells Kate to be patient and wait for Victor to come back to her. Vivian prepares for Victor coming to dinner and thinks she can still get him to go away with her to the Greek islands and that he'll propose while they're away. She makes sure Caroline overhears her telling Ivan to prepare for their dinner together. Caroline talks to Victor about how Shawn forgave her and managed to trust her again. She asks him to think of who would really make him happy. He thanks her and tells her she's just helped him make a decision.

Stefano lets John see Kristen in her room on the t.v. She's getting more and more suspicious about why Celeste wants her to stay in her room. Tony and Peter work out that Kristen is at Maison Blanche where Stefano is. He tells them there are secrets in the house which Kristen must never find out.

Stefano gets Tony to come to Maison Blanche to try to get Kristen to go back to Salem. She finds many photos of her past and asks Celeste for the keys to the whole house. Celeste is making excuses for why she can't have them when Tony arrives. Kristen tells Tony she thinks Celeste drugged her.

In the dungeon John finds his name etched into the wall and realises this was where Stefano brainwashed and tortured him. Stefano puts the t.v. screen on which shows Kristen's room and John sees Kristen and Tony making love.

Victor decides to give it a go with Kate but won't marry her until she conceives (then tells her at her appointment that she can't get too stressed or she won't conceive). He breaks the news to Vivian so she starts scheming about what's going on with the IVF.

Victor and Kate have a nice time in bed but she still senses his distance and gives him back her wedding ring. He tells her to keep the engagement ring on and that he just needs to get some trust back in her, not to mention a son from her. Vivian works out that they're doing IVF and starts plotting how she can use this. Victor tells her to move on and find someone else. Vivian gets upset when she gets a letter from Nicky saying he can't come for the visit he'd planned and she feels very alone. After he leaves she tells Ivan there's no way Kate will have Victor's baby.

The doctor tells Kate her blood pressure is too high to induce ovulation today so Victor takes her to the Penthouse Grille for dinner to try to help her relax.

Bo has spoken to David Caldwell about helping Billie start another company but she's more concerned about Jamie. She tells Jamie she knows what she's going through and can help her but Jamie denies her father's abusing her. She gets upset and her parents and Bo come out and Billie accuses him of abusing Jamie and he and Jamie's mother call Billie lots of yucky names and leave. Bo tells Billie that if she doesn't apologise to David Caldwell he doesn't know if he'll be able to forgive her.

Marlena and Roman have dinner together and Roman keeps making sure the conversation stays on the kids. She tells him she's worried about John but Roman is sure Stefano won't let John find him. Roman drops her home and tells her they can't get what they had in the past back. Meanwhile John is still in the dungeon trying to dig his way out when Stefano isn't looking at him on camera. Stefano tells him to take a last look at Kristen because she and Tony are leaving tonight. Kristen actually doesn't want to leave. Tony tells her how he might have got Countess Whillhemena from Kate and Kristen just loves him to pieces!! Then John manages to get out of the dungeon. When Marlena gets home the 'phone rings and John's voice is on the 'phone telling her to get to Maison Blanche as soon as possible. The voice on the 'phone is a tape recording Stefano has put together. He tells Marlena he's sending the private jet to get her so off she goes in the jet Kristen and Tony were supposed to come back to Salem on so Tony is angry at Stefano and Peter, but Peter doesn't know what's going on in this case.

John finds Celeste and ties her to a chair. He finds a map of the island and works out where Stefano is hiding and goes off there, encountering barking mean looking dogs on the way. Meanwhile Stefano 'phones Marlena on the 'plane, using the tape again which has John's voice saying he'll send a car for her when she lands, and letting her hear dogs barking.

John runs around the plantation away from the dog trying to find Stefano. When he finds him he tells him he's going to take him back to Salem to prove to Kristen that he's alive and that everything he ever told her is a lie. Marlena arrives in New Orleans and Celeste goes to pick her up. Marlena is very suspicious of her but agrees to go with her when Celeste tells her John is hurt. She says she just wants to call her family and Celeste's hand moves toward her do stop her somehow. Kristen and Tony leave the island but she's still sure there are secrets there she was meant to discover.

Bo convinces Roman to go see Marlena but when he gets there Carrie tells him she went to New Orleans and of course Roman thinks she's gone there to have fun with John. Celeste puts a handkerchief with chloroform or something like that on it and puts Marlena to sleep. John holds the gun on Stefano and ties him up but then Stefano tells him to look at the t.v. screen and there's Marlena drugged and tied up and Stefano says if John doesn't untie him, Marlena dies so he unties him and Stefano says "Checkmate John!".

Vivian arranges to have an IVF appointment alongside Kate's so she can destroy whatever it is Kate will have done in her appointment but the doctor then rings Kate to change the time. Vivian runs into Victor at the mall and he apologises again for hurting her and hopes she'll meet a man and she smile and says she's sure she will!

Kate goes for her IVF appointment and Vivian walks in.

Stefano visits Marlena in her locked room. She too refuses to eat so he tells her and John they are all going to have a formal evening dinner together and makes them put on evening clothes. John and Marlena hug each other and start to piece their stories together but Stefano says to wait, that everything will be revealed this evening. Meanwhile Marlena hears a noise upstairs and we find out that Stefano has a woman stashed upstairs who has been hiding for a long time. We see her from the back. At the pub Roman hugs Belle and is still convinced Marlena loves John.

Kate is told that ovulation can be induced tonight. She tells Vivian she knows she's up to something but she won't ever get Victor because he's hers. Vivian's still going through the charade with the doctor that she is going to do IVF with Ivan, so that she can later break into the office and muck up Kate's test tubes.
