Fake Rafe stands his ground against Sami's objections to him teaching Johhny violent self defense, eager to underline her marriage as DiMera plant, and gets surprisingly strong support from the boy, who doesn't want him to change back to normal. He also starts 'back' in Rafe's precinct job and deletes his own identity's criminal record. Will cleverly uses his kinship to commissioner Bo, who only suppresses Kinsey's potential complain against slanderous Gabi, to lean on the pawnshop to get access to its security video recording. Gabi recognizes the real earrings thief, her relative Dario Hernandez, who meanwhile faces his loans shark, still short of full payment. Carly and even Maggie gang up against Nathan's wish to see and win back Melanie.
