EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) is surprised to find a passed out Lexie (Nikki Crawford) where he thought he would find Kristen (Stacy Haiduk). He brings Lexie home to the DiMera mansion, but she says more goodbyes last week. Does she try to skip town again or is her second chance at life really over? As for Kristen, she does not end up where EJ wanted her to since she manages to sneak a visit with Rachel (Lorelei Mote) later in the week.

Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) wants Xander (Paul Telfer) and Sarah (Linsey Godfrey( to finally be happy, so he traps them together, hoping they can work something out. Sarah finds it hard to resist Xander, but she does her best. Later in the week, things go wrong when Philip and Xander learn their celebration might be premature. What does Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) do?

It's Leo (Greg Rikaart) to the rescue when he finds Gwen (Emily O'Brien) in Alamania. But it's not smooth sailing getting out of there. Leo and Gwen find themselves making a desperate move.
