Chad, Will and Mia faced off on the pier about her claim that she had slept around and Chad might not be the father of her baby. She lied to Will, saying she became a slut after Chad left Salem. A disgusted Chad took off. Once alone with Mia, Will asked if she was lying, but she said she wasn't. He dumped her. She cried.

At the hospital, Nicole was stressed out about what would happen with Mia. Stefano told her to relax. She exited and ran into Kate, who then asked her husband what he was doing with Nic. He said she might be moving home soon, but Elvis couldn't know about it yet. Stefano also told his wife he was going to be released. She kissed him. Victor entered at that moment to check in on his foe.

Sami tried to reach Mia, but couldn't. She met up with Brady, who was trying to locate Arianna, at the Java Café and said she had a bad feeling. She headed home. Chad came to the door and said he needed to talk. Sami invited him in. He told her about Mia's revelation on the pier and started to choke up from the betrayal.

EJ did a background check on Arianna; he wanted to see if Rafe knew she was dealing drugs.

Ari told Rafe that the truth about Nicole's baby had come out and everyone knew Nicole got the baby from Mia. Rafe smiled, realizing that she had handed him the last piece of the puzzle. Ari was confused. Rafe dropped the bomb that Sydney was actually Sami's baby. He then thought about his next move and asked his sister to fetch some clothes from his place. She said she would. He also asked her to grab his hidden cash and spare phone. She returned with his things. He told her he had contacted his pal at the FBI, who reported that Meredith was in a psych ward — for a long time. Rafe was determined to get DNA evidence to prove that Sydney was Sami's.

Nicole brought Sydney to the DiMera manse. She told EJ that Chad might not be the father of Mia's baby because she slept around in Chicago. EJ was surprised, noting Mia didn't seem like that kind of girl. Nicole believed she still had a future with EJ and the baby and tried to make him see that. "My love is still here, hoping that you want to take me back... I know you still care," she whispered, then leaned into kiss him. They kissed briefly, and EJ admitted that he had been happier than he had ever been with her, but it was over because of her lies. Nicole left, then ran into Mia on the pier. The teen was sobbing over the lies she told. Nicole insisted she had done the right thing. Sami came upon them after overhearing Nicole's last comment.

At the mansion, Brady admitted to Victor that he and Ari had reconciled. Vic wasn't pleased and revealed that Ari was a drug dealer.

A thrilled Stefano arrived home. Kate headed to the kitchen to instruct the staff to make healthy foods for her hubby. Stefano and EJ talked. EJ told his father about Nicole's visit.
