Now that Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) has agreed to help, Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) is ready to save his father's company by entering a high-stakes poker game in which the jackpot could pay off Titan's loan and then some. Gabi is ready to put up the money so Philip is ready to play. He just has to tell Xander (Paul Telfer) what he is up to.

Xander might not be too happy to know that Philip is ready to take this massive chance with their family legacy, but what other choice do they have? Philip makes his case that he truly believes he can pull this off. Yes, it's risky, but all of their problems could be solved in an instant.

Will Gabi be by Philip's side through all of this and cheer him on (quietly)? Or will she be busy back home giving Javi (Jacob Martinez) advice about his love life. With Leo (Greg Rikaart) back and Gus (Michael Ocampo) gone, Javi has a big decision to make about what he plans to do next.

Jack is Back

Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) returns to Salem with Thomas and Charlotte, who each look a little older than the last time we saw them only a few short months ago. Summer vacation is over and now it's time for that big daddy-daughter dance.

Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) questions Chad (Conner Floyd) about his plans for the future. Is she just trying to get an update on his relationship with Belle (Martha Madison)? Julie is much happier that Belle is a part of Chad's life than she was when Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) was hanging around.

As for Jack, he is glad when he runs into Gwen (Emily O'Brien) in Horton Town Square. He asks his hesitant daughter if he can hug her and tells her how relieved he is that she is okay. Will Gwen be as cold to Jack as she was to JJ (Casey Moss) last week?

Is Philip taking a huge gamble by...gambling? Does Javi even deserve to have Leo at this point? Sound off in the comments.
