>> Will: Hey. >> Chad: Hey.

Thanks for meeting me. I know Arianna really

needs you right now. >> Will: Oh, no, it's--ah,

John and Marlena took her ice skating.

So how're you doing? >> Chad: I, uh...

I stayed up most of last night just...

replaying everything that happened on Christmas Day.

>> Will: Yeah. Well, at least you know Abigail

was right. You know?

You're Charlotte's dad. So.

Could that maybe bring the two of you together?

>> Chad: Not unless she forgives me,

which I don't see happening. Not right now.

>> Rafe: Morning. >> Gabi: Go ahead.

Say it. I have disappointed you

yet again. >> Rafe: Disappointed.

Disappointed. Disappointed...

doesn't quite catch it. No.

And I get it, because I know everything that Abigail did

to you and how you suffered at her hands,

but she wasn't in her right mind.

But you... what you did?

Convincing her that she had lost her mind?

Convincing the rest of us? You knew exactly what you

were doing. You broke up a marriage.

>> Gabi: Can we not... go through all this again--

>> Rafe: No, we are gonna go through this, okay?

Okay, sis? Yeah. We are gonna go through it.

And what you did to Stefan, you convinced a sociopath

that Chad's baby girl was his? You got Chad to send Abigail

back to the institution? Wow.

So you paid them back and then some, didn't you?

So how does it feel? Is it good?

Was it worth it?

>> JJ: Hey. >> Abigail: Hi.

>> JJ: I need to talk to you. >> Abigail: Yeah, I'm sure

you've heard by now everything that I said Gabi

was doing, she was actually doing.

>> JJ: Look, I can't tell you how sorry I am for that.

If I could kick my own ass right now, I would.

But that's--that's not what I came here to talk

to you about. >> Abigail: Oh.

Surprise, surprise. >> JJ: Look, it's Dad.

>> Abigail: What? >> JJ: Something's happened

with him. >> Abigail: What are you

talking about? That's not possible.

>> JJ: I don't know how to say this

so I--I... I guess I'm just gonna have

to say it. He's alive.

>> Jennifer: [knocking] >> Eve: Ah.

What do you want? >> Jennifer: I want to see Jack.

Or whoever that man was. >> Eve: Well, I hate to

disappoint you, Jennifer, but, um, Jack's gone.

>> male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass,

so are the "Days of Our Lives."

>> Jennifer: You told me that the two of you

came back to stay. Why would Jack take off?

What have you done now? >> Eve: Just calm down,

Jennifer. He just went out for coffee.

>> Jennifer: How can I calm down when I buried my husband,

and he showed up here with you, Eve?

>> Eve: Hmm. You should've seen

your face. >> Jennifer: Oh, my gosh,

you love torturing me, don't you, but you have really

outdone yourself this time. >> Eve: You know, Jennifer,

you go after me every chance you get.

>> Jennifer: I told you. I didn't tell Brady

you were the reason he lost custody of Tate.

>> Eve: Yeah, but he found out anyway, didn't he?

Because you opened your big, fat mouth!

>> Jennifer: I told you that I was sorry.

>> Eve: Oh, you know what? I'm not interested in

anything you have to say. So in fact, I'd like for you

to leave. And don't come back!

>> Hope: Oh my God. What...

>> Jack: I beg your pardon?

>> Hope: Jack? Jack, is that you?

>> Abigail: JJ, this makes no sense.

>> JJ: Yeah, you are absolutely right, but it happened.

Look, all I know is Eve came strolling into the

party last night and announced that she back for keeps

and was going to blow up Mom's life,

and Dad walked in. >> Abigail: Dad would never be

with--with Eve. He hates her.

>> JJ: Abigail, he doesn't remember that.

>> Abigail: What do you mean? >> JJ: He doesn't remember

anything about his life here. >> Abigail: What are you

talking about? >> JJ: He doesn't remember.

Including us.

>> Gabi: I know that what I did was horrible.

>> Rafe: Then why did you do it?

>> Gabi: Because I was obsessed. I needed...

to get revenge on Abigail and Stefan.

I needed them to feel the suffering that I

was feeling. >> Rafe: And look where that's

gotten you. >> Gabi: Rafe, come on.

You know that I'm not a bad person.

I just... felt this need

to get back at the people who hurt me.

It's been torture, Rafe. You have no idea.

I have been living with this colossal-sized guilt.

Okay? Ever since I switched those

paternity results. I just--I haven't stopped

thinking about all this guilt. And I--I know that everyone

hates me. I know that people are gonna

look at me and--and they're never not gonna think,

"Okay, she's a monster." But what I need to know, Rafe,

please, I need to know if you're gonna turn your back

on me, too. Please.

>> Abigail: JJ, it's just, it's not possible, okay?

Just think about it. I mean, where would he have been

all this time? And how did Eve find him?

I mean... >> JJ: She wasn't answering

questions. She's too busy having her

moment. >> Abigail: Okay, well, if

Dad's here, where is he now? I mean, I'd certainly love

to see him. >> JJ: He's staying with Eve.

They have a room at the Salem Inn.

>> Abigail: Okay, uh... My father is alive...

and he's staying at the Salem Inn...

with Eve. I mean, this is

just--I... >> JJ: Mm-hmm.

>> Abigail: Uh, I need you to stay with Charlotte, and, um,

just--just take care of her. I'm gonna go over there.

>> JJ: Abigail, I really don't think that's a good idea.

>> Abigail: Well, why not? I mean, if he's back,

I'd certainly love to, uh-- to see him.

And if this is--if this is real, if he's there, then--then--

we'll just go from there. >> JJ: I really don't think you

should go. Abigail.

>> Abigail: Take care of Charlotte.

>> Jack: You'll have to excuse me.

You obviously know who I am, but I don't know your name.

>> Hope: Oh, come on, Jack. Snap out of it. It's me.

It's Hope. >> Jack: Well, Hope, I will tell

you what I've been telling everyone else.

I have no memory of my life in this town.

I don't remember the town or any of the people in it.

>> Hope: Well, it's a really good thing that I remember

a lot. You came here as a young man.

You eventually fell madly in love with my cousin,

Jennifer Horton. You've got two

great, amazing kids. I will show you some photos.

You are the love of Jennifer's life.

I'll take you to her. Hold on, I need to take you to

her, and when she sees you she-- >> Jack: She's seen me.

>> Hope: When? >> Jack: Well, last night

I went to a New Year's Eve party with Eve Donovan.

>> Hope: Whoa, whoa, hold on. That I don't understand at all.

>> Jack: I said to Jennifer then I didn't remember her

or her kids. >> Hope: Her kids--

Jack, they're your kids too.

>> Jack: It's my understanding at the time of my accident

that we were divorced. >> Hope: Oh, my God.

But that was only because you left.

>> Jack: So I've already seen her, and I don't

think I need to talk to her any more at this time.

So...if you'll excuse me, the coffee is getting cold.

>> Hope: Same old Jack. >> Chad: Yeah, when I think of,

uh... what it must've been like for

Abby to, you know, to hear me say that

I was gonna get her help when she didn't actually need

it... Hey, tell me something.

How do you get somebody to forgive you for something

that you don't forgive yourself for?

>> Will: I don't know how to answer that.

>> Chad: Stefan just drove me crazy.

He took my focus from my wife and my kids...

My friends. You hear what I did to Sonny?

>> Will: Yeah. I, uh...

My... I know that you did not tell

him about Kate and Leo and that sexual harassment suit.

>> Chad: Kate... another person I thought

I could count on. I just, I--I--

I hate to know Sonny's going through all that

married to somebody like Leo. I wish there was something

I could do. >> Will: Yeah, me too.

Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything anyone can do.

>> Eve: Ah. Coffee.

Thank you so much.

>> Jack: I ran into someone else who recognized me.

>> Eve: Yeah? Who? >> Jack: She said

her name was Hope. >> Eve: Oh.

Her. She is, um...

She's your ex-wife's cousin and BFF and...

she's a cop. But it--are you okay, Jack?

>> Jack: It's going to keep happening, isn't it?

People are going to keep freaking out every time

they see me. >> Eve: You know what, it's

gonna be okay--I mean... You can't help it that you

don't remember. >> Jack: I left the woman

sitting on a bench. I couldn't get away

fast enough. If I didn't have you here,

right here, away from all this pressure,

I... >> Eve: Okay.

Come sit down. >> Jack: I mean...

I know they all--they mean well. But...

>> Eve: It's definitely pressure.

I get that. But...

You know, you can't do things that they're asking you to do

right now. Just give yourself some time.

Just--right now just finish your coffee, relax,

and you know what? I am going to go get dressed.

All right?

[knocking at door]

>> Jack: [sighs]

>> Abigail: [gasps] Oh, my God.

Oh, my God, Daddy! Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, it's you, it's you. Oh, Dad.

>> Will: So I... I finally got my

head together and I remembered how much I love Sonny.

>> Chad: And then this happens. >> Will: I just miss him.

And... Leo is making

his life miserable. >> Chad: How?

>> Will: Well, he's... he's...

he's getting drunk all the time. He's spending Sonny's money.

He's...coming onto him. You know, saying that he wants

it to be-- "make it a real marriage."

>> Chad: You and Sonny belong together.

If there's anything I can do... >> Will: I'll let you know.

Thank you. I'm not giving up hope, though.

I'll--I'm telling you that. There's gotta be

some way to get rid of Leo.

>> Sonny: Are you still drunk? >> Leo: Oh, my head is killing

me. >> Sonny: Good.

>> Leo: Well, at least the brat is quiet this morning.

>> Sonny: My daughter is spending the night with Will and

his grandmother. >> Leo: Good.

>> Sonny: You do know that her mother's in jail

and could go to prison for the rest of her life.

You do know that, right? Ari needs Will and me.

And we should be taking care of her together, but we can't

because of you. No wonder you stay

a sloppy drunk. How else would you live with

yourself?

>> Rafe: You know I'd never turn my back on you.

>> Gabi: Thank you, Rafe. >> Rafe: What are you doing?

What are you... I'm a cop.

You--You've just admitted to one felony after another.

>> Gabi: Yeah, I didn't want it to go on for so long.

I was trying to tell Chad the truth, but then...

I'd think about Arianna. I'd think about my daughter,

you know? She's so scared.

She made me promise on Christmas Eve that I'd

never leave her. >> Rafe: Well, that's a pretty

rash promise, considering everything you've done.

I mean, on top of it all, you were at fault for Julie

falling down the stairs. >> Gabi: I can't leave Arianna,

okay? I can't.

>> Rafe: I'm gonna do everything that I can to help you,

but this--this... You gotta start living

a different life. Justin.

Just the man I wanted to see. Thank you for coming right away.

>> Justin: Yeah, Rafe, um, when you called you didn't

mention this was about Gabi. >> Rafe: Yeah, well, it is.

And obviously, she is going to need a good defense attorney

which is why I called the best. >> Justin: I'm sorry.

This is one case that I just can't take.

>> Jennifer: Hope. Why did you call me?

Have you heard about Jack? >> Hope: I ran into him.

Jenn, I kept telling myself that it couldn't be him,

but it was--it was-- it was Jack.

>> Jennifer: He doesn't remember anybody.

Everything that happened in his life before the accident

is a blank. >> Hope: He looked at me like I

was a complete stranger and he-- he just couldn't wait

to get away from me. Is this really happening?

It can't be. >> Jennifer: But it is.

>> Abigail: Dad! Oh-- >> Jack: I wish...

I knew what to say to you.

>> Abigail: You don't remember me.

JJ was right. You don't remember me, do you?

Oh, um... I'm Abigail.

And I'm your daughter. >> Jack: I believe you.

I know that I have a daughter named Abigail.

>> Abigail: Yeah, that's me. >> Jack: I was told that.

But I don't feel that I have ever seen you before

in my life. >> Abigail: That's okay.

Yeah, that's okay, Dad. You know, I, um...

You gave me this necklace once. It had these

little wings on it, and... you liked it because it--it--

the wings reminded you of the-- the cherubs in the Raphael

paintings. You used to love him, um...

Anyway, you gave me the necklace because you said

when I wasn't with you, that it would always keep me safe

and it would protect me. And I was gonna give it to

Charlotte, uh, my... my daughter, your granddaughter,

but I think I'm gonna get it and I'm gonna give it to you

so that you can have it and then you can hold on to it

and you can remember me. Yeah.

That might help you. Would you like that?

>> Jack: I wish I... I remembered that guy

who did that, but I... I don't.

I don't remember anything. I only know my life

after my accident. >> Abigail: So you remember

the accident, though. I was--that was--

you died in the-- well, in the accident, you--

I--you were saving my life, Dad. In the elevator I was trapped

and you saved my life.

Are you--are you remembering me?

>> Sonny: You don't give a damn about Ari, do you?

That little girl has gone through so much

and her mother might be going to prison

for the rest of her life >> Leo: That kid should thank

her lucky stars if that happens. She's got a mother from

hell just like I did. I would've paid someone to send

my old lady away for life. >> Sonny: Whoa.

>> Leo: What? >> Sonny: It's just I've never

heard you talk about your mother.

Why is that? >> Abigail: Are you remembering

something, Dad? What's...

What happened? I saw something.

Did you just remember me? >> Eve: Hey, hey, Abigail.

What are you doing here? >> Abigail: Not now, Eve.

Please, Dad. Tell me what happened.

Something came back to you, I just saw it.

You can tell me. What happened?

>> Jack: I... I am a blank.

I am sorry. >> Abigail: No, you don't have

to be sorry, that's okay. We're just, um...

We're just, you know, we just have to keep trying.

That's okay. It's all right.

We'll just try to, you know... Jack: No, I--

I can't hear that anymore.

Enough of that. >> Abigail: Enough? Dad--

>> Jack: Enough of that. >> Abigail: Why can't--Dad,

you have to. This is the only way.

>> Eve: Abigail, did you just-- >> Abigail: We have to talk

about this. >> Eve: Did you just hear what

he said? He can't hear any more of the

stories. You need to back off.

It's better, you know, you should actually leave.

>> Abigail: That's--that's not your decision, okay?

No, I'm not leaving. I'm not gonna leave unless

my dad wants me to leave. Dad.

>> Jack: I-- I think you should go.

>> Abigail: Uh, okay. Um...

Yeah, I'll go. Uh, you can get some rest

and I will--I'll come back with, uh, with your grandkids.

I'll come back and I'll bring your granddaughter, Charlotte,

and I'll bring your grandson, Thomas.

They're gonna love you, Dad. You're gonna be their grandpa.

They're gonna love you. We love you, Dad.

And we are your family, okay? Not her.

She's not your family. We are, okay?

We're your family. Okay, well, I'll see you later.

>> Eve: Come on. Jack. Come on.

>> Justin: Abigail is my niece. How can I possibly take

this case after what you did to her?

>> Gabi: Justin. I just need a lawyer.

Okay? If you won't do it for me

please do it for Arianna. >> Justin: Were you thinking

about Arianna when you did the things that you did?

>> Rafe: Okay, you know what-- >> Justin: Okay, you know, I'm

sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Look, I don't want to see any

mother separated from her child. But I'm sorry.

The answer is still no. You need to find yourself

another lawyer. >> Rafe: Thanks.

>> Jennifer: The only thing that Jack remembers about me

and our life together is what Eve's been telling

him. >> Hope: And I'm sure they're

all lies, Cuz. >> Jennifer: And then he read

that memoir that he wrote, and...

He's holding it against me because I had a relationship

with Daniel when he was in that POW camp.

>> Hope: You had no idea that's where he was.

>> Jennifer: And then he really stuck it to me when

I took my time to decide between him and

Daniel the last time he came home.

>> Hope: Yeah, but you know what?

You had every reason to do that. Jack wasn't the most perfect

husband, you and I both know that.

>> Jennifer: I know, but it wasn't the right time to say

that, Hope. I had to remind him of...

of how we fell in love with each other.

Of how he gave me a career, he gave me children,

he taught me so much about life...

And it didn't even affect him. He looked at me

and he said he felt nothing. >> Hope: Oh, Cuz, I'm so sorry.

>> Jennifer: I am too. >> Hope: Oh, honey.

>> Jennifer: But I'm not gonna focus on that, Hope.

Because Jack is alive. >> Hope: I know.

>> Jennifer: My God, he's alive! I have been praying...

to God for years that if he would just let me see him

one more time, I could tell him what was

in my heart. >> Hope: I know, and you know

what? Your prayers...

they got answered. >> Jennifer: But he doesn't

remember me... and what he's learned about me,

he doesn't like. So--so he's here.

He's so close that I can touch him...

and what if he never remembers me?

How can I go on like that? >> Hope: You and Jack...

you share something that's a part of both of you.

And nobody can ever take that away.

Nobody. As for Eve,

her schemes eventually always blow up in her face.

We're not giving up on Jack. We're going to find a way

to get through to him. I promise.

>> Chad: You've got to be kidding me.

Uh, sorry, I was just, um-- I just, I, um--

I just read about your father. >> Abigail: Yeah.

>> Chad: So it's real? >> Abigail: Yeah, it's--it's--

it's real, he's back. Uh, he just...

he has a memory problem. He doesn't--he doesn't remember

me or any of us right now, but. >> Chad: I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. >> Abigail: Yeah.

>> Chad: Do you want to go talk about...anything?

>> Abigail: Uh, no. Not with you.

>> Chad: Did you hear that Gabi turned herself in?

>> Abigail: Yeah. Uh, yeah, I heard that.

>> Chad: I know it doesn't make up for what she did to you.

But it's something. >> Abigail: Oh, it's something.

It's just not enough. Not even close.

>> Jack: She upset you, too. She seems like a very

nice, if determined, young woman.

>> Eve: Well, that nice and determined young woman

locked three women in a basement and tried

to suffocate them. >> Jack: No.

She's violent? >> Eve: She's a little bit of a

head case. I mean, she even went after me

one time. She is a chip off the old block.

>> Jack: That old block is me. >> Eve: No, no, no.

What I mean is that she's exactly like Jennifer.

I mean, you really need to stay away from that woman.

I mean, really far away from Jennifer.

>> Jack: Why do you dislike her so much?

>> Eve: Jack, we're talking about you and why

you divorced her. There was a reason for that,

you know. >> Jack: Yes.

Yes, and you keep saying that but you never go into specifics.

>> Eve: Well... >> Jack: And while we're on the

subject of divorce, why did you and I get one?

>> Eve: Well, now, that one's very complicated

and I really want to talk to you about it, but I don't

have the time right now. So I need to get going.

But we will talk about it. >> Jack: Are you gonna tell me

where you're going? >> Eve: That's not important.

You don't worry about that. I'll be right back.

Kay? You just relax.

>> Rafe: So you saw him, huh? It's really Jack Deveraux?

>> Hope: Either that or an exact double.

>> Rafe: I suppose stranger things have happened

in this town. >> Hope: Don't we know it.

What's happening with Gabi? Have you asked Justin

to represent her? >> Rafe: Yeah, I did.

And, uh, he refused. >> Hope: Kind of expected.

Right? I mean, Abigail is his niece.

>> Rafe: Yep. It was always a long shot, but, uh...

she's gonna need a damn good attorney to keep her out of

prison this time.

>> Hope: What do you think, um...

about Ted Laurent?

>> Rafe: You gotta be kidding me.

>> Hope: No. He represented Theresa

when Brady was suing for custody of Tate

and he won. >> Rafe: The guy's a slime ball.

Didn't he admit to blackmailing Will and Sonny?

Hmm? >> Hope: Rafe.

There aren't a lot of people in this town that want to help

Gabi. So...

She really can't afford to be picky, and neither can you.

And I'm so sorry if that makes you mad.

>> Rafe: You know what, it does make me mad, actually.

>> Hope: I'm trying to help you here.

>> Rafe: Oh, you're trying to help me?

>> Hope: Yes, of course I am. >> Rafe: Really, are you?

By trying to offer Gabi a shyster lawyer?

I don't think that that's helping, Hope, sorry.

>> Hope: You want the truth? Rafe...

after everything your sister has done to Abigail--

She drugged her. She drove her crazy, she...

You know what Gabi has done to Abigail is unforgivable.

>> Leo: It's no big deal about my mom.

She just wasn't much of a mother, that's all.

>> Sonny: Why's that? Tell me about her.

>> Leo: You would not understand.

>> Sonny: How do you know? >> Leo: Because I've met

your mom. She thinks the sun rises

and sets on you. She's willing to kill

anyone that messes with you. I'm afraid of her.

>> Sonny: You should be. >> Leo: Not everybody gets to

be that lucky. For my money, no mother at all

would have been better than the one I had.

>> JJ: Hey, Abigail's not here. >> Chad: Uh, no, I know.

I actually just ran into her. Right after I heard

about your father. Is that real?

>> JJ: As far as I'm concerned, yeah, yeah it is.

But he doesn't remember anything about his life here.

>> Chad: That could change. >> JJ: Yeah, that's what we're

hoping for. Yeah.

>> Chad: Look, uh, I came by, I was hoping

to spend a little bit of time with Charlotte.

If that's okay. >> JJ: Oh, yeah, well, she's--

uh, she's asleep right now. >> Chad: I'm not gonna

wake her up. I just...

you know, want to look in on her.

>> JJ: Um... >> Chad: I--I'm...

I'm her father, JJ. >> JJ: Yeah, but I don't want to

get in the middle of a thing between you and Abigail.

>> Chad: I know, I just-- I lost a lot of time.

She deserves a father. >> JJ: I know Gabi

did this to you. She didn't just go after

Abigail... She took it out on

you and Charlotte. I'm sorry.

It makes me sick to think that I took her side.

>> Chad: She hurt a lot of people.

We're gonna make sure that never happens again.

>> Rafe: Pretty cold attitude to take for a sister-in-law.

>> Hope: I have been very fair to Gabi.

And I have been more than understanding, Rafe.

With all the bad situations that your sister has gotten

herself into, have I not? But you know what?

I'm done, okay? I am done.

I am all out of understanding. I'm trying to help her.

I am, and I only suggested Ted because he might be the one

attorney who might actually be able to help her.

And get her off. I am trying to help.

>> Rafe: Ted. [chuckling]

No. Well, thank you.

For your offer to help, but, um..

I'll look after Gabi myself.

[cell phone dialing] [cell phone ringing]

>> Will: Sonny? Is something wrong?

>> Sonny: Uh, no more than usual.

But I gotta be quick because Leo's upstairs,

and he must have just come in. He seemed like he was still

really drunk. >> Will: With any luck

he'll destroy his liver. >> Sonny: You know, he was

actually being more open than usual, and he said

something that I think we can use against him.

>> Will: Something big? >> Sonny: Everyone has

an Achilles' heel, and I think this might be Leo's.

[Charlotte fussing]

>> Chad: I'm your father.

You know, I found out about that on Christmas Day.

You were the best Christmas present that I could

have ever asked for. I put your mom through a lot.

I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to the both of you,

I promise you. Just hope she can forgive me.

You think she can forgive me? 'Cause if she does, then I...

then I think that we could be one of the great,

happy families of all time. What do you think of that?

[Charlotte fussing] You know, you have a...

big brother. You haven't met him yet,

but you will. I'm gonna do everything I can

to put things back together. I love you and...

and your brother and your mom way too much to ever give up.

To ever stop trying.

You must be real proud of yourself.

Kicking that many people in the gut in that amount of time,

You should know that more than anyone.

>> JJ: It takes a really twisted brain to do the things you've

done and still feel sorry for yourself.

Blaming Mom for Nicole's death? Only you could come up

with that one. And then making my dad into

your big "Ta-da" moment? Nice work.

that I'm the one that brought your dead daddy back to town?

And the three of you aren't helping him at all with all this

"Why don't you remember me?" whining and the wounded looks.

>> JJ: You know, we might've done it differently

if we'd had some warning he was alive.

But you didn't want that. You brought that poor, broken
