< Continued from page 1

Will is later on the phone while Sami plays with the twins on the floor. He then asks the twins if they want to go get some breakfast, or a treat. They head to the Java Café. Sami gets Grace’s blanket and holds it. Rafe calls and begins to leave a message and she picks up the phone, crying that she told the twins and now they’re at breakfast with Will. He asks if she wants him to come over, but she prefers to be alone.

After they hang up, she tosses the phone and breaks down.

Sami later sleeps on the couch and awakens to hear Grace crying. She goes over to the playpen and sees Grace, then fetches her favorite blanket. She suddenly sees that Grace is gone, then frantically yells out Grace’s name and searches for her. It turns out to be just a dream as Sami awakens for real. She soon answers the knock on the door to E.J., who came to check on Johnny and her. A jaded Sami invites him in, informing him that the twins are at breakfast. He heard that she was going to tell the twins about Grace and asks how it went. She doesn’t know how much of it they understood. He asks how Rafe is doing through all this, knowing he and Grace were really connected. Sami begins to cry as she recalls how Rafe helped her through the Witness Protection Program and he was inseparable with Grace. She cries how she did what she had to do, but fumes that it meant nothing. E.J. doesn’t understand what she means by this.

E.J. tries to assure Sami that she did a good thing by taking a little girl who had nobody in the world and gave her everything.

She expresses how sweet and special Grace was, wishing that he would’ve known Grace the way she did. E.J. wishes that as well, reminding her that Grace was Johnny’s sister. “She was more than that,” implies Sami, who admits that she didn’t tell him the truth. “She wasn’t just my baby, E.J. She was ours,” clarifies Sami. “Grace was our little girl,” she cries.

E.J. tells Sami that it’s been a really terrible ordeal, and nobody should have to go through what she did last night. He assures her that his daughter Sydney is at home asleep. Sami insists that she’s talking about his other daughter, Grace. E.J. begins to babble about stressful situations becoming too much to bear. “Why aren’t you listening to me?” she interjects. He notes that she seems to be losing a grip on what is real and what is not. She implores him to stop questioning her sanity and think about it for a second.

E.J. is taken aback and implores Sami to explain away. “When was Grace born?” she asks him. E.J. confirms that it was around January 28, the same time Sydney was born. “That’s right. Count back nine months. Who were you sleeping with?” she reminds him. E.J.’s eyes widen in disbelief and he shakes his head back and forth. “You lied to me, you lied to me,” he quivers. Sami insists that she had to. He pleads for her to tell him that she wouldn’t lie to him about something like this. “I had to,” she says. E.J. is shaken up by this shocking revelation. He shakes his hand a bit before sitting down, cowering up on the edge of the sofa. He calmly questions why she would lie to him about Grace. “Because you’re a DiMera,” she sneers, ranting how his family represents everything that is evil.

Sami rehashes how his father had the mayor murdered and as a result, she had to hide and be away from her kids. She recalls coming back to Salem and finding that he’s planning his wedding while planning Philip’s murder, but he didn’t succeed so he tried again to kill Philip. She tells him he’s become more and more like his father every day, recalling all those threats he made to take Johnny away from her. E.J. has a look on his face of bewilderment, shock, confusion, betrayal, all rolled into one. He demands to know why she didn’t tell him she was pregnant before all the “nonsense” with murders and attempted murders. She insists that she wanted to and was going to. “Why? Why? Why? Why not in August? Why not in September?” he bellows. “I came to tell you the day I witnessed the mayor being shot! I came to tell you, and that’s when I saw you and Nicole!” she exclaims, as she found out Nicole was pregnant too. He screams at her to shut up about Nicole, insisting that this has nothing to do with Nicole. “She didn’t lie to me about the most important thing in my life!” he affirms. “She has not betrayed me!” shouts a furious E.J.

University Hospital

Rafe arrives and tells a nurse that he’s there to make arrangements for the baby that died last night. The nurse asks for the baby’s name. “Grace Rafaella Brady,” replies Rafe. She asks what his relationship to the child was, and he confirms that he was her father. “I’m sorry sir, but your name wasn’t in any of our records,” she says. Rafe insists that he already filled out the paperwork last night and signed everything. The nurse laments not being able to help him. “Look, I’m her father, okay?” yells Rafe. Nicole emerges and affirms that Rafe is Grace’s father. Nicole introduces herself as Mrs. E.J. DiMera, and the nurse willingly offers to dig up whatever paperwork is missing once.

After the nurse walks off, Rafe asks Nicole why she did that, knowing that he’s not Grace’s real father. “In your heart you were, and I know you loved that little girl,” she assures. He wonders what she’s doing there. She admits that she was so upset last night that she left her cell phone there. She expresses again how sorry she is about what happened. Rafe can’t help but wonder why Nicole’s so upset, since she didn’t have any real connection to Grace.

Daniel is sleeping at the hospital when Kate slowly approaches him and basically stalks him. She sees the prescription pad by his bedside and tears a sheet off, then flashes back to forging his signature. She is about to walk out the door when Daniel awakens and asks what she’s doing in there. She claims she came there to talk to him, but he was pretty much out of it so she decided not to disturb him. He knows she hates him and surmises that she’s there for another agenda. “If you came here for something, why leave without it?” he questions. Kate implies that she got what she came for.
