Shawn and Belle found shelter from a man named Merle. He took them to a room and told them to keep their cell phones off, so they couldn’t be
traced. They could make calls from a pay phone in the hall. Merle asked Shawn and Belle if they were really Claire’s parents and not
kidnappers. They assured him that Claire was their daughter. Merle took out a map and pointed out countries that don’t have an extradition treaty with the US. Later, Shawn counted their cash and told Belle they barely had enough to get to Montreal. Belle suggested selling her wedding ring and told Shawn that she was glad he was back in her and Claire’s life.
Shawn was glad, too, because Claire was with her parents and that was all that counted.
Victor ordered Lucas to fly to Toronto to find Claire and bring her home, but Lucas refused. This wasn’t Titan business. Lucas suggested
Philip track down Claire, but Victor opposed the idea. Between the war and losing Belle and Claire, Philip couldn’t handle it. Victor pressed Lucas to change his mind, insisting that Philip wouldn’t press charges
if Shawn and Belle returned with Claire. Again, Lucas said no. Victor told Lucas he had a choice: get on the next flight to Toronto or start looking for another job. “You can take your job and shove it,” said
Lucas.
Nick called Abby to discuss Chelsea and Billie’s request to find Chelsea a job at the lab. There was just one problem: Dr. Rebert, who
does the interviewing, was Lonely Splicer. Just then, Nick’s boss told him there was an opening for a lab assistant. Later, Dr. Rebert
announced he had a candidate to interview and in walked Chelsea, who recognized Dr. Shane Patton. Fortunately, for Nick, it was a daydream.
At the pub, Abby told Chelsea that she’d decided to go to college full-time. Chelsea was delighted. She and Abby could join a sorority. Chelsea always dreamt of living in a big house with a sorority mom to give her advice. Chelsea reminisced about her late “mom,” Mrs. Benson. Abby reminded Chelsea that she had Billie, but Chelsea said Billie had her own life and guy. Nick arrived and told Chelsea that there were no
jobs at the hospital. After Abby left, Chelsea asked Nick if he had any idea who her mom’s boyfriend was. Nick gulped and said he didn’t.
Chelsea called Nick an amazing friend and planted a kiss on his lips. Nervous Nick tried to go. Chelsea asked him to help celebrate her going to college and he agreed. As the pair turned to leave, the phone at the pub began ringing. Little did they know it was Shawn calling.
Sami went to see EJ at the police station and brought up Lexie witnessing EJ shoot John. “Except she didn’t,” countered EJ, noting that Lexie lied and was now on the run with Tek. EJ said the cops had no evidence linking him to John’s shooting. While he was in the boathouse waiting for Sami that night, he left before John or his assailant arrived. Still, Sami accused EJ of being behind John’s attack and Lexie and Tek’s disappearance. EJ mentioned the night they “made love,” and Sami spat, “You raped me!” EJ said Sami “wanted it” as much as he did. Sami explained that she wasn’t there to relive that, but to reassure EJ that she told no one about seeing him. Hence, he had no
reason to target her or her family. EJ told Sami he’d be free soon and planned to rebuild his business. He wanted Sami to work for him. “No,” said Sami, who just wanted EJ to promise she wouldn’t end up dead. EJ
insisted he’d never harm the mother of his child. Sami lied that she’d used protection that night. “I’ll just have to try harder next time,”
taunted EJ. Sami threatened to kill him if he ever came near her again. Later, EJ was released and phoned Kate, suggesting a business
meeting. “Clothing optional,” he cooed.
Sami and Lucas returned home, and Lucas filled Sami in on his meeting with Victor and getting fired. Sami suggested she get a job, but Lucas
insisted he’d support their family. Sami asked Lucas to keep their pregnancy a secret. “I don’t want to hear anyone say, ‘Oh, the poor kids. Now is such a bad time to have a baby,'” noted Sami. Lucas agreed to keep mum.
