with you. >> Rex: What? No, Sarah, you

gave me another chance, okay? You let me take you to dinner

tonight, hold you in my arms and kiss you.

I-I can be patient, believe me. I'm not gonna like it, but...

[chuckles] I can do it. >> Sarah: Thank you.

>> Rex: I'll drive you home. >> Sarah: Oh. Um...

yeah, okay, that's probably a good idea.

There is something else you should know.

>> Rex: What's that? >> Sarah: I-I...I stopped things

tonight because I thought it was a good idea.

But that doesn't mean that it was easy for me.

>> Rex: [laughs] Thank you for saying that, but...Sarah, I

don't wanna do anything that's gonna rush you or pressure you

into any situation. >> Sarah: No, I--

You know, we--we've... both forgiven each other, and I

think we both understand that things can't just go back to the

way that they were immediately. >> Rex: Yeah...

>> Sarah: But that doesn't mean that they can't be...

a little better than they are right now?

>> Rex: Better as in... better than me taking you home

and the two of us spending tonight alone?

>> Sarah: Yeah. Yeah, that.

little bit of slack if I were you--it is partly your

responsibility for what happened tonight.

>> Brady: I'll tell you how I figured that--because you knew

that Theresa had left Chloe in Mexico in the first place.

If you would have told us from the beginning where she was, she

wouldn't have been forced to kill this Mateo guy, and these

goons wouldn't be after her right now.

One's dead, the other one's running with his tail between

his legs--problem solved! >> Chloe: Well, not exactly.

Before that guy died, he vowed that my children and I would

never be safe. >> Brady: He what?

they would be safe, at least for tonight.

danger, but I can't stand to be away from them, and they need

I never left the foyer, Abigail saw me leave, and I certainly

didn't have a baby in my arms. >> Chad: Well, you were just

buying time while one of your goons kidnapped her?

Charlotte is not my daughter. She's yours.

>> Chad: To get control of the company, Stefan!

innocent? 'Cause you're just a stand-up guy?

It's right outta your playbook. >> Stefan: You know what?

You're right--I can be a ruthless bastard if I have to.

But if I did have her, don't you think I would admit it?

I mean, the jig is up. So why am I not demanding that

you resign in exchange for the return of your daughter?

Trust me, I have every intention of

removing you from DiMera, but I wouldn't kidnap my own

niece to do it. No matter what you think of me,

Chad, I care very much about that little girl.

anything? >> Eli: No. She was sound

asleep. >> Abigail: Okay. I should check

on Thomas-- >> Eli: No, look, Julie's got

him. We've just been coming and

going--I think we woke him up. No signs of forced entry in the

nursery. >> Abigail: Well, no, that's

because he came through the front door.

>> Lani: You let him in? >> Abigail: No, I didn't let him

in--of course not. I just--I-- I walked out and I found him out

there. He gave me some line about the door being open, but

that's probably because he already took her and gave her to

one of his guys. >> Eli: All right, we're gonna

need every detail that you can remember.

>> Abigail: I-I mean, he didn't stay long.

He--he said that he came to-- to give me this for Charlotte,

and then he just--he just left. Because he already had what he

wanted. [spoon clatters]

gonna bitch at me-- >> Ben: No, no, no.

I'm not gonna bitch at you. It's my fault.

I'm sorry. Ciara, everything that happened

was my fault. I messed it all up.

there was this great connection. For me, anyway.

shaken up, honestly. I'm scared to death that El

protection? >> Chloe: I don't know.

I mean, the thought of having to need a bodyguard 24/7 for me and

my children... Brady offered to have us move in

It's none of your concern. I've got it all figured out.

The only thing that matters right now is that Ben has no

idea where Charlotte is. Or you, for that matter.

So that means he can't hurt either one of you.

thank you. It's very kind of you to offer,

tonight? I'd say that was quite the

bonding experience, don't you? [groans] Ohh.

>> Chloe: Uh, well...yes. I agree, um...

But, uh, my kids are a fairly skilled wrecking crew, and I

couldn't do that to you or your lovely home.

>> Stefan: Why not? I have a full staff here that

I'm sure would be happy to earn their respective paychecks

picking up toys, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

Besides, haven't you heard that old saying: if you save

someone's life, you're forever responsible for them?

>> Chloe: [exhales] Ahh... you know what?

I think we will probably be fine at my place.

I mean, you scared off that one cartel guy and the other one's

dead. There's probably no real threat.

I'm just--I'm just feeling paranoid.

[beep beep] Oh, sorry.

Who's texting me at this hour? Oh, my God.

S-she's my friend. She would never take my

daughter. >> Lani: But?

worried about what he might do. >> Chad: Especially if he wanted

to get back at me. I just fired him.

>> Eli: Then it's possible he might have kidnapped someone

else as well. >> Chad: What?

>> Abigail: What do you mean? What?

>> Lani: Hope thinks Ben took Ciara.

>> Abigail: Oh, my God. Are you serious?

>> Eli: We were just at Ben's hotel.

We questioned him, but there was no signs of a baby.

And the officer that's trailing him--he hasn't reported anything

suspicious. >> Lani: Still, this guy hasn't

been taking his meds regularly. It's possible that he could be

losing it.

Ciara, the problem is I don't know where the hell to start.

You know I'm not really here, right?

>> Ben: Of course I know that. >> Ciara: A little advice.

If you wanna be of any use to me, you need to stay on your

meds. >> Ben: No, I am.

>> Ciara: Mm. >> Ben: Right here.

[pills rattling] Uh...okay, I missed a few doses,

but I am back on track. It just takes a little while

for, you know, all the levels to even out.

>> Ciara: Hmm. Good.

Now you need to get some sleep. >> Ben: No, I can't sleep.

I can't rest, I--I gotta think. I gotta figure out where the

hell you are. >> Ciara: You will.

But first, come here. Just lay down.

You really need to get some sleep, okay?

You need to get your strength up.

Never again. >> Ciara: I know.

Now...close your eyes.

And just go to bed.

Wait.

I'm gonna go get the crib I left in the car--be right back.

Just look around... okay?

This is no place for a baby. >> Jordan: Four walls does not

make a home, okay? Love does.

And I have got plenty of it for that little girl.

I'm gonna take really good care of her.

>> Ciara: Yeah, but you don't have to.

She has parents, two of them-- Chad and Abigail--and they love

her so much, and Jordan, they are gonna protect her.

You don't have to. >> Jordan: Because that's what

parents do? Is that it? I know better than anyone that

is not always the case. My mother certainly didn't

protect me from Clyde. >> Ciara: I know how Clyde used

to beat you up. >> Jordan: He did more than that

to me. It's no wonder Ben's such a

to be a hard-ass, but there's no reason you have

to be the one to rescue her. I know the girl: believe me,

she'll find some other poor sap to take care of her.

>> Stefan: Chloe, what is it? What does the text say?

>> Chloe: The number's blocked. >> Stefan: Let me see.

"This isn't over. You'll never be safe."

All right, that settles it. You're staying here tonight.

>> Chloe: What about Holly and Parker? They're in New York with

my mother. >> Stefan: I will send a team to

look after them, and then tomorrow, you and the kids move

in here.

[tense music] >> Eli: CSI's upstairs dusting

for prints. I'm gonna head back to the motel

and question Ben. >> Lani: I'm gonna go question

Stefan, and we'll also give Jordan a call and see if she saw

anything suspicious. >> Abigail: Okay. Please just

keep us updated on, uh, whatever you find.

>> Lani: Of course. >> Eli: We'll keep you updated,

Abigail. >> Abigail: Thank you.

[sniffling] [crying] It's our--it's our

little girl. >> Chad: We're gonna find her.

Okay? I promise you we're gonna find her.

We're gonna find her.

>> Jordan: It's supposed to just unfold.

How do you unfold it? [Charlotte cries]

Oh. It's okay.

Charlotte, it's okay. I'm gonna have your bed ready

for you in just a few minutes. >> Ciara: Why, uh, don't you let

me try and soothe her? Just while you're getting the

crib together. If you can untie me, then I can

hold her and... >> Jordan: No.

It's safe if you're tied up. Besides, I've got this under

control, okay? You'll see. All right? Everything...is under

control. [Charlotte crying]

>> Ciara: Ben... please help me.
