On the terrace at the Penthouse Grill Brandon tells Sami that it was cruel for Kate to give Sami the letter from Austin. Sami, thinking that Brandon is there to rub her nose in her misery, lashes out at him. Brandon tells Sami that he does not hate her but Austin is right when he says she'll always end up alone. Anyone who gets close to her ends up getting hurt. He says that he'd rather be alone than risk being hurt by her again. Sami says that she's trying to make a new start but Austin was a big part of her life and part of her will always love him a little. However, she is also angry with him over what he said in the letter and claims to be through with him. Then (in true Sami fashion) she switches gears and asks Brandon if he still loves her. Brandon asks Sami what she wants from him friendship or a relationship. She apologizes for using Brandon in the past and says she has feelings for him that one day could turn into love. He tells her to leave him alone as he won't be second best to anyone. As he heads back into the restaurant Brandon tells Sami that she needs to learn how to be alone. She asks about his relationship with Lexie and Brandon curtly tells her it's none of her business. Sami stands there and decides that she's better off resorting to her scheming ways in order to get Brandon back...

Brady and Belle arrive at the loft. Belle is concerned for their parents, but Brady tells her all will be okay. In order to calm Belle's fears he calls the restaurant and finds out that it's closed and the police are still there investigating. Still a little nervous, Belle reaches for her cell phone but Brady stops her and tells her not to call Shawn. Belle defends Shawn to her brother by telling him the real reasons behind Shawn being with Jan. The explanation does not change Brady's impression of Shawn. Belle changes the subject to Chloe. Brady admits that he fell for Chloe last summer. While everyone was away on the trip the two of them spent a lot of time together. He says he's been holding back because he knows Chloe still has lingering feelings for Philip. Brady also confides that Chloe suffering from the same disease his mother (Isabella) died from makes him feel powerless. Belle tells Brady that simply being there with Chloe can help her. She says that Chloe needs all the positive energy she can get and Brady is exactly the person to provide it!

Upon entering the restaurant, Tony exclaims that the phoenix has risen! John attacks Tony. Roman and Abe pull him off. A somewhat flustered Tony says his only intention was to have dinner with Lexie and is taken aback by seeing so many faces from his past gathered there. Bo accuses Tony of being there to try to kidnap Zack which totally confuses Tony. He has no idea that Bo and Hope had another child! Abe and Roman want to take Tony to the police station for questioning, but John insists on hearing his story then and there.

Nicole and Colin are watching all of this unfold from the doorway. She mentions leaving and he responds by telling her to shut up and go home if she's bored. She decides to stay.

Tony rehashes his history with John and how John was having an affair with Tony's wife Kristen. An angry John brings up the diary Tony left behind after his "death" that framed John for his murder. Tony reveals that it was actually Andre (gasp!) who died and was also the one who framed John. Everyone is a little skeptical since Tony was supposed to have personally watched Andre die in quicksand several years before any of this took place. Tony explains that Stefano swooped in and rescued Andre at the last second. And as luck would have it Andre had the same blood disease as Tony. So Stefano took the liberty of switching a very ill Tony with Andre (without Tony's knowledge) in order to defend the DiMera family honor and get revenge on John. As an added bonus Stefano was able to get rid of Andre, whom he never liked, permanently. Tony claims to have had no contact or involvement with his father in several years. Tony says that in order to put the matter to rest once and for all the police should send the diary for handwriting analysis and exhume the body.

On the way out, Tony makes eye contact with Colin. this does not go unnoticed by Bo. Bo confronts Colin who admits nothing( but he also doesn't deny anything...)to his cousin.

Jack and Jennifer are pleased to have an exclusive on this story. Jack is very curious as to why Colin is there when he has nothing to do with all of this. He decides to follow Colin and Nicole out.

John asks whether Stefano is also planning on returning to Salem. Tony admits he does know of his father's whereabouts. After apologizing to Lexie for having to give the bad news under such circumstances, Tony announces that Stefano is dead!!!

When Victor walks in on Nicole and Colin, and he orders Nicole to leave or else lose her job. Alone with Colin, Victor informs him that he investigates his past and threatens to divulge everything unless Colin stops seeing Nicole.

Belle announces her decision to remain in Salem for the summer instead of leaving immediately for Columbia. Concerned for Brady, she tells Shawn that he confessed his feelings for Chloe the previous day. Jack and Jennifer groggily lift their heads from their desks after spending the night on the DiMera story. They discuss the importance of the story to the newspaper, and Jennifer questions what Jack was doing while she stayed at the police station. When he brushes off her inquiries, Jennifer insists that the story has nothing to do with Colin, but Jack is convinced that Colin is somehow involved. Craig complements Nancy for being so supportive of Chloe during her illness.
