00:24you out in time for the spring Olympiad yes absolutely I'm actually I'm
00:28volunteering at the medal ceremony me too and now that the weather is warmed up it'll be fun to
00:35hang out outside with everyone again right do something normal for a change Wow you're in a
00:41good mood I am I'm just I'm so relieved that our baby is going to a good home me too so relieved
00:58hey shawty come look at this oh yeah what's up
01:21can't you look at this crap you can actually program it so that it rocks the baby to sleep
01:30I didn't even know that was a thing a very expensive thing I know right for that price
01:36it better change the baby's diapers too but I bet if we put it on the registry mama will
01:42probably swipe it up for us she is crazy excited about this baby uh did your aunt Belle did she drop
01:52off those papers you know I you know she she must have um gotten swamped at work huh yeah I bet
02:02there's nobody busier than a DA in Salem right I just I really hope that she doesn't forget about us
02:09she's on top of it okay promise you know I don't know I guess it's just like with everything that
02:21we've been through I'm just I'm so worried that something will go wrong you know something that'll
02:29stop this adoption from going through
02:32listen mom I am getting on the next flight listen I know that he's in isolation but there's got to be
02:42something that we can do but I know I just want to be there with you
02:48are you sure okay I love you too
02:56what did your mom say
03:02it's my dad
03:06he's dying
03:11thank you
03:21I hear Maggie dropped a million bucks at the auction
03:25yes she did
03:28and that auction thank you very much for letting us have it here at the Brady pub
03:33it was fabulous thank you
03:35well that was my contribution and you're more than welcome
03:39I tell you Roman
03:41Maggie's generous donation and all the others and the bachelorette auction that we moved online
03:48I am feeling really optimistic and positive about the future of the hospital
03:52I just feel like my spirits have been lifted
03:56I am so happy to hear that sis and I know your spirits are being lifted
04:02for another reason too
04:05I never thought I'd be so happy to see that sign again
04:20that is a sign for sore eyes
04:24forget you said that
04:27I think that we almost went on a wild goose chase
04:33if we'd listen to Orpheus' lies
04:36well it's a good thing we didn't
04:38because now Andrew and Paul are following an actual lead
04:42I've got a good feeling about this
04:48I think they're
04:51I think they're gonna find John
04:53and I think they're going to bring him home
04:57yes my spirits are definitely lifted
05:04Steve is gonna be home any minute
05:06I have to say I do feel a bit guilty though
05:10guilty?
05:12what?
05:14because my husband is coming home to me
05:16and Marlena doesn't even know where John is
05:18hey, this whole family's on this case now
05:22alright?
05:23so nobody's giving up till we find him
05:26which means he will be coming home soon too
05:30yeah
05:32oh, sorry
05:34ah, it's Hope
05:37hey, Hope
05:38gosh, it's good to hear your voice
05:40I'm sorry, I meant to reach out and I
05:42what?
05:44oh, no
05:48what is it?
05:52what's wrong?
06:04like sand through the hourglass
06:06so are the days of our lives
06:09I didn't realize you were still worried about the adoption going through
06:25yeah, I mean, aren't you?
06:28I mean, I'm more excited and happy more than anything
06:33but I just, I can't help but be a little nervous
06:37you know, with all the ups and downs
06:39and
06:39you know, until the papers are signed
06:43Mrs. Choi can still change her mind
06:45especially now that EJ woke up
06:48what do you mean?
06:54well, Mrs. Choi only agreed
06:57because we put in writing that EJ
07:00can't be a part of the baby's life
07:02do you
07:03really think that he's gonna respect that?
07:06doesn't get a vote
07:07I know
07:09but
07:10I think things were a lot more cut and dry
07:13when EJ was in a coma
07:14don't get me wrong
07:15I'm happy that he woke up
07:17it's not like I wanted him dead or anything
07:20I did
07:20yeah, I
07:23I know that that's what you said
07:25I meant it
07:27well, um, I was thinking
07:34since we aren't moving back to the mansion anytime soon
07:38I took the liberty of looking up some listings
07:42oh
07:43uh, anything good?
07:47well, it's not exactly a renter's market
07:49but
07:50my mom was able to find us a townhouse
07:53by
07:54water
07:55even though she has a little bit of pool
07:56you know, so I was thinking
07:59what you were thinking
08:02yeah, why
08:04thinking what?
08:06I was thinking
08:07why should we throw away our money on rent every month?
08:10why don't we just splurge on a down payment for a house?
08:13a house?
08:14I know, right?
08:17but
08:17well, I found this
08:19great little house
08:21with three bedrooms
08:22and a huge backyard
08:22and I was just
08:23I was thinking
08:24wouldn't it be nice for the baby to grow up
08:26with
08:27you know, all that space?
08:29who?
08:37um
08:37if we hurry, we can make the swim meet
08:39actually, if it's cool
08:42I'd rather just
08:43hang out
08:44and kill some time
08:45before the medal ceremony
08:46how come?
08:49because
08:50Holly's friends with most of the swim team
08:53and
08:53you know, I'm not exactly their favorite person
08:56oh
08:57right
08:58yeah
08:59but
09:01look
09:01now that the adoption is back on
09:03maybe you and Holly can
09:05work things out
09:06or
09:08forget it
09:09that's
09:09it's not any of my business
09:10no, no, no
09:11it's
09:11it's fine
09:12seriously
09:12um
09:13yeah
09:15the baby situation didn't
09:16make things easier for us
09:17but
09:18you know
09:19the main reason we broke up
09:21is because of Doug
09:22you were just looking out for her
09:26so Holly will come to realize that eventually
09:29yeah, I doubt it
09:31anyway, let's
09:33let's talk about something more fun
09:35like your
09:3618th birthday

09:39I mean, come on
09:39uh, no

10:48okay?
10:49look, you didn't have a choice
10:51you were trying to protect your mother

13:55yeah
13:55bye
13:59bye
13:59Mommy.
14:29wow
14:33not even gonna like take a minute to think about it or anything great
14:39but it's it's not personal it's just like well have you ever seen maternity prom dresses
14:46you know i i can't say i've ever really looked into that
14:51well i have and they're all really weird and or ugly so
14:58oh no come on you could pull off anything you would look beautiful thanks
15:06but uh no forget it i'm i'm not going and actually
15:14actually is what what well it's not because of how i look that's not the real reason that i said no
15:21okay what is it then what would you what are you worried about i'm worried i'm worried about why
15:32you're asking me are you just trying to make holly jealous
15:36you know when i was a kid my dad and i we both thought that my mom was gone
15:50my god he he was grieving but he would never never let me see it just he never wanted to burden me
16:01he just always made sure that we stayed busy because he
16:10he wanted to make sure that there was that was normalcy in our lives
16:13i mean whatever whatever sense of normalcy at least we could get
16:25steve said that you two lived on a houseboat for a bit is that right yeah oh yeah that was
16:33that was awesome that was awesome every morning he and i would wake up and uh
16:38uh we go fishing and then sometimes you take the boat out out further out into the water and then
16:46we go swimming and
16:50you know i actually think i think that that's when i learned how to swim
16:58he would just pick me up and he would take me and he would just
17:01he'd just toss me overboard but he would he would always he would always jump in the water right after
17:11just to make sure that
17:16just to make sure that i felt safe
17:21no matter what i needed
17:22look he was always there for me
17:30now my dad he was the
17:38he is
17:41the key is the best man the best father in the entire world
17:52okay
18:06baby what's going on with beau
18:09she got a call from hope
18:13what it's beau is he no no he he's still with us
18:17but he's taking a turn for the worst
18:21what happened he contracted an infection from the ventilator the doctors tried to contain it but it
18:29spread and now he has sepsis
18:34my god i assume he's on large doses of antibiotics yeah yeah they have him on that but you know his
18:42immune system is already so compromised i mean it may not be enough so what's the outlook
18:51it's hard to say i mean sepsis is caused when an infection spreads uncontrollably and if it's not
18:58contained it can continue and if it's not abated then you know what happens there's
19:05organ failure i mean wait what are you giving up are we giving up here i mean is there is there no
19:13way that beau can pull through no i mean the doctors have put him in isolation he doesn't have
19:21any visitors so at least that gives him a fighting chance to kick the infection but
19:27his odds are not good so there's nothing we can do there's no other treatment that could help him
19:34you know what the antibiotic regimen is really our best bet at this point
19:39i mean any other treatment would be just the holy grail of medical research and
19:46wait a second there is something that's being developed right under our noses
19:52what do you mean i know someone who is working on a drug for sepsis and he is one of my directors
20:01in my departments what are you talking about dr russell there's a lot of buzz around the hospital
20:09about him working on something very special in his lab yeah he's working on a medication to halt
20:17the multi-organ failure from sepsis well what the hell are we waiting for let's get this guy on the phone
20:24uh you know it's just not that simple it's not that simple this is in the first stage of development
20:30it hasn't even had a human trial yet i mean it's gonna be a long time till this thing is approved
20:36and certainly not in time to save our brother
20:41look that that is not why i asked you to prom
20:54i swear it is not to make holly jealous i just think it'll be a chance for us to do some fun
20:59you know senior stuff but it's it's totally your call obviously
21:07oh hey guys hey chanel hey uh what are you doing here oh i uh wanted to give these to felicity
21:17congratulate her on her gold medal that is so sweet of you she's gonna love those
21:23you know so but uh that's actually not the only reason why i'm here i was hoping that i'd see you
21:31guys here too i'm sorry i'm sorry for what you for loving your dad and worrying about him
21:48i know the feeling all too well
21:56god now i'm thinking about my father
22:02he was uh he was sick for a while before he passed right yeah he was
22:10and even though we all knew it was inevitable it was still a shock when it finally happened
22:21but you got to be there you got to be there with him by his side didn't you
22:28yeah i was and i got to tell him that i loved him one last time
22:34but take it from me if if you think that being by your dad's side is going to
22:46rid you of the guilt and regret
22:51it doesn't
22:55what did you have what did you have to feel guilty about
22:58oh for one um i didn't become a doctor
23:05talia she was in medical school when he died but i'm the oldest
23:11my parents they they were pushing me so hard to get into medicine but no i wanted to be a cop
23:20well i wanted to save the world
23:25yeah
23:25well i'm pretty damn sure that your dad
23:32was very very proud of you
23:37yeah he was
23:40he was
23:42but you know i just
23:45i just kept thinking
23:46like if i had listened to him then i would have been a doctor by then and maybe i could have seen him
23:53you know
23:59sean listen
24:01i know you wish you could be with your parents right now okay
24:05but you are right where you belong
24:11speaking for myself i
24:12i i moved to salem
24:15so i can be around the people who meant something to my dad
24:19people who loved him who respected him
24:23that that that that gave me a lot of comfort
24:27and you need to find comfort in that too
24:30being around all the people who really care about your father
24:34who love him
24:38and love you
24:41all of their hearts
24:55how are you doing
24:58don't worry about me baby
25:00what was your brother
25:03i know but the two of you have always been as close as brothers
25:08that's true
25:12i guess i'm uh i'm still processing it
25:16i mean when we found beau alive two years ago
25:21i could hardly believe it
25:23it's like a miracle
25:24but then looking back
25:30of course he survived
25:32if anyone was ever stubborn enough to cheat death
25:36it was your brother beau
25:39is that the truth
25:42and he's gonna do it again
25:44if he can cheat death once
25:48he can do it again
25:56are you holding up
26:00shouldn't i be asking you that question
26:03well yeah
26:04yeah i mean
26:06i'm terrified
26:08my little brother but uh that doesn't mean i stopped worrying about you
26:14i don't know
26:21and uh
26:22there's someone who can lift our spirits
26:25grandma
26:26oh honey
26:33you have no idea how happy i am that you're back
26:37i feel the same way
26:38so any word on uh on grandpa john
26:45uh nothing definitive but i'm hoping we'll hear something very soon
26:49hey you know what uh i was about to whip your grandmother up something can i get you something
26:54yeah just uh just a beer thanks
26:57all right you got it grandson
27:00please
27:01okay
27:05so
27:06push me up what's been going on
27:09i do understand that it's been a stressful few weeks for you
27:15uh yeah yeah i mean old town can't stop talking about my father being shot
27:20yeah
27:24i'm i'm glad he survived
27:28and um i'm wondering how you're dealing with uh what you found out
27:37my mom called you
27:38she did
27:46she told me that she explained to you
27:49how you were conceived that you had a
27:54a long talk about it and that she thought it went well
27:58yeah it did
28:02did hearing her side of things definitely helped
28:06still
28:08it doesn't change the way i feel about my father
28:12have you spoken to him since he woke up to tell him what that i wish he hadn't that i'd be better
28:18off if he died
28:27did you order too much food
28:29uh no i
28:32i think i just lost my habit i'm sorry
28:36same here
28:38best laid plans right yeah
28:42today definitely did not go the way that i had planned
28:44what do you mean well i mean i i invited you here because i wanted to take your mind off your
28:52problems and well now you're kind of drowning in mine
29:00and there's nowhere else i'd rather be
29:02i just
29:10i just feel so helpless right now
29:13no
29:17well it's because you're all cooped up in here
29:20look what do you say we toss all this food in the fridge and get some fresh air
29:28it's a great idea i like that
29:32you know it just it just all feels so pointless doesn't it
29:49what does i mean here we are crossing our fingers saying our prayers hoping
29:56the boat can pull through this
29:57i mean it really makes me question why did i get these medical degrees
30:02oh come on i know you don't mean that no you know what maybe i do i'm here i spend my days
30:09saving lives healing people but when it comes to my own family i can't do anything
30:16kid listen to me we're not giving up
30:19i know i know i know that i just wish there was something i could do to help bow
30:28you wanted to see us is uh everything okay yeah yeah um i just wanted to give you something
30:41uh when i was at the florist today i i thought that you should get something nice
30:49both of you well thank you but uh uh what is this for are you kidding me
30:56johnny johnny and i have put you guys through the ringer these past few weeks
31:00and you could have looked for someone else to adopt your baby during all this but you stuck by us
31:11and now we get to start a family because of you and so i just wanted to give you something
31:22and not that this gift can even begin to convey what that means to us not when you are giving us
31:29the biggest gift that we have ever received but i just i hope that you know that
31:40well that you will always be in our hearts because of this oh god here come the waterworks
31:47i hope that i hope that i'm not embarrassing you no no of course not we're we're so grateful for you
31:54too yeah more than you know
32:01look you are allowed to feel whatever you're feeling
32:14but since there is an ongoing police investigation i i think you should be careful
32:21about what you say about your father would you give us a moment sure
32:36look i shouldn't have said that okay at least not in front of anyone
32:41i wasn't going to talk to you about that i was going to say that i know what your father did
32:50certainly did complicate your life it complicated a lot more than just my life
32:57you mean the adoption yes that certainly could derail it

34:33we need to stick together now that's the only way we're gonna get through this as a family
34:38so now that you've learned the truth about your father you're not sure you want to be a parent you
34:54know up until about two weeks ago i had no doubts i had no doubts at all and now i just
35:00i i i i i hate i hate feeling this way how did she know yet i haven't told her how could i
35:17she just finished telling me how how happy she is that everything's finally falling into place and
35:24now i'm supposed to just sweep the rug right out from under her again and there's god there's there's
35:31tate there's sophia look i know you don't want to hurt anybody but that is no reason to go ahead and
35:40and adopt a child that isn't fair it isn't fair to you it isn't fair to your wife and it isn't fair to
35:47the baby and if you have those feelings they are going to surface eventually i know
36:00listen to me if you are not a hundred percent sure that this is right for you
36:10you have to talk to chanel about it honestly and openly
36:13and then the two of you decide what you're going to do together
36:30felicity was so proud of herself uh yeah she should be she demolished the competition i
36:36i i just wish aaron were here to see it me too the cat was there to cheer her on and did you see
36:44how happy she was when chanel gave her the bouquet
36:50it was really sweet of her to think of us too i mean i know she said that we were giving her this
36:56great gift but really we're the lucky ones our baby is going to a great home
37:02yeah i feel the same way
37:10so you want to go halfsies on the flowers what are you talking about no they're yours no they're not
37:16chanel said they were for both of us and this baby is both of ours okay but i'm smart enough to know

39:31to take you to the ice cream truck every week right he told you about that i couldn't get him to stop
39:39talking about you yeah if i was having a hard day at school he'd always give me an extra scoop
