Our lawyer just tried to get me to confess to setting the fire

Charlotte home. And when I tried to talk to her,

You confessed to setting up Abigail.

I mean, she was already headed straight for Splitsville,

I'm Gabby. And when my man laid eyes on me,

he couldn't get me outta there fast enough.

I would never hurt Ciara. >> Stefan: Right, right, right.

This guy killed three people! And he tried to incinerate many

more, including you! >> Ciara: But that's not the

whole story. His father traumatized him.

He terrorized the entire family. He had a terrible childhood, and

that kind of stuff really affects you.

>> Julie: My darling, half the people in this world have a

rough time growing up. They don't take their revenge on

people by strangling them! >> Ciara: Ben did some terrible

things--yes. But he was sick.

And he got help. Ben is not the same person he

was before. >> Julie: In my long experience,

I have noticed that people that much.

Especially not a sociopath like Ben.

He's cunning. He's snowing you.

Just like he snowed everybody else in this town.

Honey, before he was caught, we all thought he was a nice guy.

>> Ciara: Now he is a nice guy...for real.

And I would really appreciate it, Grandma, it would mean

so...so much to me if you would just please

consider giving him another chance.

>> Julie: I know you're passionate about this, darling.

You're just coming off a breakup.

>> Ciara: I know, but we're taking things slow, Grandma.

I'm fine. >> Julie: Honey, you're

vulnerable. A-and men like Ben, they sense

that in a woman, they seek it out.

Past trauma. A heartbreak.

They prey on that! >> Ciara: Do you really think

naive when it comes to men?

>> Julie: I know you're not. But Ben Weston is not your...

average predator. He's lethal!

So the next time you see him coming...

whatever you think your feelings are, set 'em aside...

and run!

[dark music] >> Ben: I'd never rat you out to

the cops, Mr. DiMera. >> Stefan: Well, it's...it's

obvious you want Hope Brady off of your back.

Perhaps you found a way to make that happen.

>> Ben: By giving you up? Like a rat?

Never. I am a loyal employee.

>> Stefan: Then you tell me exactly what went down in that

hotel room. >> Ben: [sighs]

Soon as I get there, Ted is trying to sell me on the idea

that we can sue the Salem P.D. for false arrest, that they

don't have any evidence on me. He gets a big payday out of it,

make millions of dollars. But in order to go forward,

he needs all the facts. In other words, he wanted me to

confess. >> Stefan: And you said...

>> Ben: I said I don't need your damn payday, 'cause I'm working

for you. He freaked out.

All of a sudden, Hope crawls outta the bathroom and points a

gun at my head. >> Stefan: Then what?

>> Ben: Then Ted starts making all these wild accusations,

saying that you kidnapped him and that he escaped and that you

hired me to kill him. I said, "I don't know what the

hell you're talking about. You're the one that called me."

>> Stefan: I suppose if Ted had any proof that I held him

against his will, the police would have arrested me by now.

>> Ben: Trust me, they have nothing on you.

>> Stefan: But I-I have to say I'm a little disappointed.

I mean, this was your first assignment, and you failed.

>> Ben: Whoa, whoa, whoa... >> Stefan: You failed.

>> Ben: I will get this done, boss.

I promise you.

>> Stefan: Relax. I'm not gonna fire you.

I said I'd give ya a second chance, and I meant it.

>> Ben: Thank you. Because now I want to get this

lying snake lawyer. What's our next move?

>> Chad: I'm gonna go talk to Stefan.

>> Jennifer: No, you're not gonna do that right now because

you're upset and you're gonna make things worse--please.

>> Chad: Stefan and I had a deal, all right?

I give him his daughter back, and in return, he has Abby

committed. He reneged on his offer. Abby's sick again, and

he's taking advantage of it. I'm not gonna let that happen.

>> Jennifer: No, please, you have to calm down, Chad, you

cannot go there right now. >> Chad: I'm gonna go deal with

that son of a bitch, okay?

>> Abigail: I'm so grateful for you.

Gabi, all your scheming sent Abigail over the edge.

She cracked, and I'm free. And now, Stefan and Charlotte

and I, we can live our amazing happily-ever-after.

>> Gabi: Or... or this is some big performance

that you, Abigail, are putting on so that Stefan can spring you

out of Bayview. I know how much he loved and

missed his beloved Gabby, so I'm sure it didn't take a lot of

convincing for him to bring you home, did it?

>> Abigail: I don't understand. What's with all the attitude,

Gabi, huh? I mean, I just told you how much

I appreciated you. >> Gabi: No, you're...you're

doing a pretty good job at keeping up with me--I'll give

you that. See, marrying Stefan--that was a

good idea. Pretending to be Gabby...even

better. So what's next?

>> Abigail: Next, I...well, I guess I, uh, live my amazing

life. >> Gabi: Uh...amazing life?

W-what do you mean? Chad's gone.

Your entire family bailed on you.

You've been gone for so long, Thomas probably doesn't even

know who you are. And now that you're all in

playing crazy, you're gonna lose your baby too.

[intense music] >> Abigail: [quietly] Like hell

I am.

>> Hope: Ted and I made a deal. >> Rafe: Yeah?

>> Hope: I protect him from Stefan, and...he gets me a

confession. From his client, Ben.

That's all that was going on. >> Rafe: I was at the cabin--

>> Hope: Rafe-- >> Rafe: Hope, I went to the

Horton cabin. >> Hope: Nothing else was going

on. >> Rafe: I saw the wine glasses,

his boxers on the floor! >> Hope: I had Ted stashed there

for his own protection. As for what you saw, I was

stressed, okay? I-- And he's a slob!

That's it. The bottom line is, all I wanted

from Ted was... a way to keep Ciara safe.

>> Rafe: Why'd you lie to me? Why? Why'd you go sneaking

around behind my back? He just said you were having an

affair. >> Ted: I was covering for her.

She wanted to tell you the truth, but I didn't think you

could handle it. >> Rafe: What does that even

mean? >> Ted: You--you would have

insisted by playing by the book, which would have left me

vulnerable--vulnerable to anyone at the Salem P.D. who's on

Stefan's payroll. They would have tipped him off,

and I will have end up in cement shoes.

You know it. >> Rafe: You say that like it's

a bad thing. >> Hope: Ted's right.

He--he's right. You never would have agreed for

me to do this--never. >> Rafe: Yeah, you're right.

You're absolutely right. >> Hope: I'm not budging on

this. The question is...

will you help me?

>> Ben: Hey. Got your call.

What's up? >> Ciara: Uh...

I don't really have much time right now.

My shift starts in a few minutes, and I have to set up

for a birthday party. >> Ben: Oh. Anyone I know?

>> Ciara: An old family friend. He turns 84 today.

Loves soap operas and yard work. >> Ben: Oh. Well, I'd like to

meet him. >> Ciara: Not gonna happen.

>> Ben: Something bothering you, or...

>> Ciara: My Grandma Julie just gave me hell for getting

involved with you. She thinks it's the biggest

mistake I've ever made and practically ordered me to stay

away from you.

>> Ben: Wait, are you dumping me?

>> Gabi: Finally...we're done playing games.

I'm Gabi, you're Abigail. We can hate each other.

You can probably take off that stupid wig.

>> Abigail: [chuckling]

I'm Gabby...with a Y. >> Gabi: All right, look, y-you

might be fooling Stefan with that bull, but I'm not some

lovesick puppy. So listen to me, Abigail.

You probably have some sort of delusion where you think you're

gonna get payback for what I did to you? Forget it.

You're screwed. >> Abigail: Actually, I'm

exactly where I wanna be. >> Gabi: No, I know.

Yeah, you're out of Bayview, and you're in Stefan's house.

Long enough so that you can get a divorce and then run out with

your kid--that's the plan, right?

>> Abigail: What? No. I love my man. I would never leave him.

>> Gabi: What are you talking about?

That man makes your skin crawl. You know what?

Even if you manage to ditch Stefan, you do know your entire

family thinks you're insane. They're gonna do whatever it

takes to make sure you get back to the funny farm for a very

long time. And you can cry about how I set

you up and everything, but your brother, your mother, and Chad

and everybody else have dismissed your crazy, paranoid

story. No one is gonna help you.

No one's gonna believe you. You are completely and totally

alone. >> Abigail: Hmm.

You're right. Everyone does think that I'm

crazy. Dangerous, even.

>> Gabi: I mean, I did a pretty damn good job, didn't I?

>> Abigail: [laughs] Yeah, you did.

You really did. And now that you've thoroughly

convinced everyone that I'm Gabby, I'm not gonna be held

responsible for my actions. I mean, you know better than

anyone that I got away with murder once, right?

So what if, instead of slapping that smug look off your face...

what if I just killed you instead?

Hmm?

>> Ciara: I, uh, I don't really think you can dump someone after

one date. But, uh...

if you're asking if my grandma changed my mind about you...

the answer is no. As you know, my mom already

tried, and it didn't work out. >> Ben: Yeah, well, your entire

family is against us, so... >> Ciara: Doesn't surprise me.

But what does is that you try to take me on a date at

grandparents' club. >> Ben: It's a nice place.

>> Ciara: [laughs] Yeah, where we agreed that they wouldn't

even hire you as a dishwasher. Ben, what the hell were you

thinking?

You seem really upset. >> Julie: I was just talking

unfortunate choice of dating Ben Weston.

It's terrifying, isn't it? >> Jennifer: She told me that

she broke up with Tripp, but she didn't tell me the reason was

I did. She's not hearing, Jennifer.

She thinks Ben is a "changed man."

exactly what Ben did to Abigail. He's the one who caused her

first psychotic break. >> Julie: Darling, I'm sorry,

I should have asked right away. How's Abby doing?

Stefan because I abandoned her. >> Jennifer: What? Don't let

Gabby's bravado fool you. The woman you love is in

trouble. >> Chad: Thought you wanted me

to stay out of it. >> Jennifer: No, I wanted you to

stay away from the mansion because you were so upset.

But Abigail needs you. You can't give up on her.

>> Chad: I wasn't there for her before.

I should have been. And I will be now.

I promise you, I'm gonna fight like hell for the mother of my

child. >> Abigail: I had no choice.

Pretending to be Gabby, pretending to love a man that I,

in fact, despise, it was all I could do, I had to do, in order

to get back to my daughter. And I'm probably gonna have to

keep pretending to do that for a while.

It's not like anybody's gonna believe me.

>> Julie: Why do you say that? >> Abigail: Well, my whole

family gave up on me. I kept telling them over and

over again that it was Gabi Hernandez who was trying to set

me up, that she was trying to take everything that mattered

from me, and nobody listened to me, nobody believed me.

So now I just have to find a way to prove it.

>> Julie: And why are you telling me this?

>> Abigail: I guess... I guess because I know that you

hate Gabi Hernandez, and... I'm just hoping, Julie, that

confiding in you isn't the wrong thing.

>> Julie: Abigail... I believe you.

>> Abigail: You do? >> Julie: I know what Gabi

Hernandez is capable of. And together...

we are going to find a way to make her pay.

>> Abigail: Thank you.
