I didn't hear anything.

Are you there?

>> Haley: [laughs]
>> JJ: Shh.

>> Eve: Thanks.
So it's confirmed.

>> Jack: Hmm?
>> Eve: They're gonna televise

the debates live tonight.
>> Jack: They're televising the

Salem mayoral debates.
>> Eve: Yes, that's right.

It'll be the perfect opportunity
to expose that Melinda Trask has

been lying about the fact that
her little sister is an

undocumented immigrant.
>> Jack: Whoa. Whoa, now, wait a

minute--
>> Eve: You know it won't just

be a temporary setback for her.
It'll be permanent.

And she won't just be out of the
running for mayor--she'll be out

of politics.
And did I mention out...of...a

job.
>> Jack: You are one scary

woman.
>> Eve: Yes, I am.

But lucky for you, I'm Team
Jack.

>> Abe: Hey, how do I look?
>> Sheila: Where are the

sneakers I gave you?
>> Abe: They're in my closet.

What do you have to say about
this--the suit, tie, shoes?

It's, uh, you know, mayoral.
>> Sheila: Maybe, if you're

running for mayor in 1954.
The suit screams establishment,

but the sneakers give you street
cred.

[phone rings]
>> Abe: [laughs] Excuse me.

Oh, it's Valerie.
[beep]

Hey, have you landed?
Oh, you're kidding me.

Of all the...rotten luck.

>> Hope: Ben.
>> Ben: Is Jordan on her way to

Bayview?
>> Hope: Yes. You okay?

>> Ben: I just can't stop
hearing the things that she said

to me.
I don't understand what could

have made her snap like that.
Wish I had the opportunity to

talk to her and just...ask her
why.

You know something, don't you?

Tell me.
Please.

>> Ciara: Jordan could have set
both fires.

And all this time, that thought
never even entered my mind.

She knew that everyone would
blame Ben, and they did.

[small laugh]
It had to have been her.

Who else could it have been?

Ciara--if you had not entered

the contest, then I wouldn't

wouldn't have dumped me.

always liked to take your side
about everything.

loved him.

wanted to get Tripp into bed

[applause]
Thank you.

>> Eve: Okay, Jack, now I want
you to listen carefully and see

if this woman should be mayor.
Okay?

>> Melinda: Mayor Carver and I
don't agree on much, but we do

agree on the importance of this
public space to the community.

It's a place where family and
friends should feel safe to

gather and live out their lives.
Sadly, under Mayor Carver's

watch, horrific crimes have been
committed here, and the

perpetrators have oftentimes
gone free.

Just last summer, one of Salem's
most respected citizens,

Dr. Marlena Evans, was gunned
down at her own wedding right

over there.
As D.A., my office and I were

eager to bring the shooter to
justice.

It was an air-tight case.
The shooter was caught

red-handed on security footage.
But that man is still free

today.
Why?

Because he was able to waltz
into the mayor's office and gain

access to the security footage
so he could delete it.

Thanks to Mayor Carver, Xander
Cook continues to pose a threat

to every citizen in this town.
>> Jennifer: Mayor Carver,

would you care to respond?
>> Abe: Yes, thank you, Ms.

Deveraux.
What happened with Xander Cook

was unfortunate.
And I take full responsibility

for the loss of that video
footage.

>> Sheila: No. That's just not
right.

The mayor had nothing to do with
it--it was all my fault.

Cook isn't just a murderer.
He's a con artist, and I fell

for it.
And since it is all my fault,

[laughs]
I'm resigning, effective

immediately.
[crowd murmurs]

>> Jennifer: Quiet, please.
I think we need to give

Mayor Carver a chance to
respond.

>> Abe: Thank you, Ms. Deveraux.
And thank you, Ms. Watkins, for

your offer.
I do not accept your

resignation.
We're only human.

Mistakes happen.
>> Melinda: How do you know this

was a mistake?
Ms. Watkins is a convicted

felon.
>> Abe: And she served her time.

>> Melinda: Still, you've given
her access to highly sensitive

materials.
Who's to say that she wasn't

just helping out a fellow
ex-con?

>> Abe: You know, I am not
surprised that you're willing to

throw out baseless accusations.
During your tenure as District

Attorney, you made a habit of
rushing to judgment.

That's why you kept prosecuting
innocent people.

And that's why you ended up
with a conviction rate that can

only be called dismal.
You never took the time to do

your due diligence, because you
are only interested in the

win...not in seeking justice.
And something tells me

that this bid for mayor
is no different,

all
the wrong reasons.

>> JJ: Good for you, Abe.
Really nailed her.

>> Haley: Hey, Melinda scored
points too.

It's still anybody's game.
>> Abe: Ms. Trask has used

sarcasm and innuendo
to imply that my passionate

belief in justice for all
means I'm soft on crime.

I don't think that I would have
won the endorsement of the

police department if they
thought that.

The officers who served under me
as Commissioner of Police

believe I would be the better
mayor.

And I hope you all agree with
them.

>> Melinda: And I would say it's
almost criminally negligent to

ignore what's happened here.
Xander Cook has terrorized this

community and literally gotten
away with murder.

Could it be because Mayor Carver
is so cozy with his uncle,

Victor Kiriakis?
A Mexican drug lord was able to

send a crew of his henchmen up
to our town with impunity.

We are all under attack.
>> Eve: [sighs]

Jack, this is disgusting.
And Abe's just standing there

taking it.
Well, I'm not going to do it.

I'm gonna ask a question.
Excuse me, Ms. Trask--

>> Jennifer: Oh, please wait
until the candidates have--

>> Eve: You've told us about
the terrible things that were

done by a member of the Greek
crime family and a Mexican drug

lord.

>> Ciara: Yay! Do you think you

could give me a ride home?
>> Hope: Is that--

Is that a serious question?
Yes, of course, I can drive you

home.
>> Ciara: Thank you.

>> Hope: Here you go.
Try that. See if you like it.

Where's Ben?
He's not here?

>> Ciara: What do you mean?
He went to go see Jordan.

>> Hope: No, he couldn't.
She was being transferred.

We had a, um...we had a nice
talk, and then he left and I

thought--Well, I thought for
sure he would come here to

see you.
>> Ciara: No, he didn't.

Wonder where he went.

>> Ciara: You're not a killer
anymore, Ben.

You're better than this!

questions--

down and let me finish.

You can't just bark out orders
here.

A citizen has asked a question
of a candidate, and you damn

well better answer it.
Both of you.

What is your position on
immigration?

Or more specifically, what do
you think about illegal

immigration?
>> JJ: Oh, God.

>> Haley: You told him?
>> Abe: Well, I believe that's

more of a federal issue.
>> Jack: Okay. Okay, then, Ms.

Trask, your campaign literature
paints a very scary picture

of Salem being threatened by
an "influx of criminals."

So clearly, you think it's
actually a very local issue.

>> Melinda: Of course it is.
>> Jack: So let's just can it

with the dog whistles and answer
a very simple question.

Do you think illegal immigration
is a clear and present danger

to this community?
>> Melinda: Well, I certainly

think that there are cases--
>> Jack: Yes or no?

Do you think illegal immigration
is a threat to the people of

Salem?
>> Melinda: Yes, I do.

>> Jack: And you would take a
firm stance against it?

>> Melinda: Of course.
>> Jack: Interesting.

Considering the fact that your
very own sister is an illegal

immigrant...
and she lives right here in

Salem.
