Lexie (Nikki Crawford) and Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) both find themselves in situations they'd rather not be in, all thanks to EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel). Lexie is alive again, but finds herself dying again, all because EJ decided he should play God. Kristen knows that EJ is planning on kidnapping her and holding her on DiMera island, something Lexie told her. EJ doesn't even realize Lexie overheard his whole plot.

Lexie isn't about to allow Theo (Tyler Joseph Andrews) and Abe (James Reynolds) to go through what they had gone through years ago when they watched her die the first time. To spare them, she plans to leave Salem and live out her next set of last days without her husband and son.

As for Kristen, she refuses to allow EJ to get the upper hand, so she proposes an escape plan to her sister. They may as well do this together because two heads are better than one, but is her plan a dangerous one? Lexie knows her sister can be impulsive, so will she go along with what Kristen wants or will she balk at her idea?

Gabi Drops a Bomb

It didn't take long for Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) to change her mind about giving Titan her inheritance when she learned that someone has been stealing her designs and creating knock-off Gabi Chic bags. She just assumes it has to be Titan, so she is going to withhold the money and let the company fold.

Now, Gabi informs the Kiriakis brothers that she won't be giving them any cash, which leaves Xander (Paul Telfer) and Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) in more trouble than ever. Not only do they still owe on this loan, but they also owe more than ever before and it's all because of EJ. They have no idea how they are going to make these payments.
