Episode # 10297; Tape Date: 3/25/06; Air Date: 4/20/06; Director: Roger Inman

Summary: Lexie confronts Alex…Sami offers advice to Belle…Bo is served his divorce papers…Hope learns what happened to Alma.

Sami has an eye on Lexie...as she is on the phone inquiring about her test results. She leaves the hospital and goes by the Java Café. As she sits pondering a way to stop Lexie, Bonnie comes in, wondering what Sami is up to now. After hearing Shawn and Mimi in the hall (see below) Belle comes by and joins Sami. Sami asks her what’s up as Belle claims she is worried about Marlena. But Sami knows there is more to it than that…and cuts to the chase, asking if there is trouble in paradise. Belle defends Philip but Sami can tell that she doesn’t love him, so Belle admits to still being in love with Shawn. Sami advises her that she either must accept her life or change it. Belle says she can’t hurt Mimi but Sami says she has to stop being miss goody-two-shoes and fight for the man that she loves (of course Bonnie is listening, taking all this in). Belle says she can’t break up their marriage and she would never cheat on Philip, but Sami urges her to be honest with Philip and herself. Belle says in time she thought her feelings for Shawn would fade. But Sami says she and Shawn belong together…everyone knows that…but she and Shawn are with the wrong people and only Belle can fix it. She tries to point out to Belle that she never really loved Philip…not like Shawn. Belle gets very uncomfortable but Sami points out that Belle only married Philip on the rebound and soon Shawn will also realize that he doesn’t really love Mimi either. Belle worries about Claire, but Sami tells her that through it all, Will knows that both she and Lucas love him and that is what is important…Claire will be fine. Belle says that Philip is such a great guy but Sami asks her if she ever felt that she couldn’t live without him and of course Belle has no answer for that. Sami tells her that she can’t live her life without Shawn…go and tell him and don’t let anyone stop her. With renewed spirit, Belle thanks her and takes off. After she leaves, Sami cries alone as Bonnie vows to not let Belle take Shawn away from Mimi. She says that Sami just made another enemy.

Shawn and Mimi are smooching when the phone rings. It is Bo asking him to come down to the station to talk about Hope. He and Mimi leave as Mimi is complaining in the hallway about all the interruptions to their honeymoon. Belle walks up and overhears them. (This is right before she runs into Sami).

On the Island…Hope is at Alma’s grave as Patrick is upset she followed him. He says when she learns the truth, she will hate him…he is responsible for Alma’s death…he killed her. He puts flowers on her grave as Hope assures him that her death wasn’t his fault. He tells her about how he was a con man and involved with the mob, owing them money. But he came to the island to hide away and met Alma and she changed him (insert flashbacks here). He says that Alma saw the good in him and changed his life. Hope asks what happened to her and he goes on to explain that he owed money and he left for a while and when he came back he found her dead (also told in flashbacks). He beats himself up over her death, saying that Bo was right about him along. Hope assures him that Bo was wrong about him, as he is about a lot of things. She talks about how Bo was always her hero, but not anymore. She tells him that he is a good person and nothing can change her mind about that. He tells her to just go back to Bo…far away from him as he stares at the grave.

At the Penthouse…Alex is talking to Marlena about their honeymoon as she wants to know where they are going, but he won’t tell her. He only says that it is a trip from which she will never recover. She becomes a bit leary of this, but he says he just wants to get her away from Salem and from John. He tells her as soon as they are away from Salem, he is going to make her very happy. He encourages her to go and pack. After she leaves, he goes out on the terrace and makes a phone call, putting the penthouse on the market. He instructs them that the money is to be wired to his offshore account. He pulls out a vial of medicine, saying she needs a refill. He says that once they are out of Salem, she will realize her fate.

Later, Lexie shows up as Marlena talks about how she is so afraid of John. But Lexie tries to tell her that John is only trying to protect her from Alex. Marlena doesn’t want to hear this and defends him. Lexie asks her WHAT has he done to her. Marlena says she trusts Lexie’s opinion but NOT when it comes to Alex or John. Lexie notices the needle marks on her amrs and asks her about it, trying to convince her that Alex is drugging her and that she is in danger from him. But Marlena won’t listen, insisting that Alex loves her and would never harm her. Alex walks in and stops Lexie and urges Marlena to go back upstairs and pack. After she leaves, Alex begins threatening Lexie with his blackmail info, but she tells him it’s no use, she is telling Abe everything. She tells him about her medical condition and that she is planning on relieving all the stress in her life. He tells her that she stands to lose everything, but she doesn’t care, she is determined to do the right thing. She warns him to get out of Salem…she is also going to tell John the truth about what he has been doing to Marlena. Alex laughs at her, but she says he will feel the consequences. After she leaves, Marlena comes back downstairs and once again Alex tells her to go finish packing. After she leaves, he says she needs another dose and chuckles, saying he has come up with a new way to deal with Lexie. He says it may be cruel, but an adulteress like her deserves it.

At the Cop Shop…Chelsea is in the hallway, determined to go tell Bo the truth, when Frankie shows up. She tells him that she is there to talk to Bo and Frankie asks if there is something she wants to tell him. Shawn and Mimi come in and Shawn is NOT happy to see Chelsea there and blows her off. She tells Frankie that no one will ever forgive her for the things she has done…and she doesn’t blame them if they don’t. Inside, Bo tells Shawn he has tried everything to find Hope and begs him to tell him where she is, but he won’t tell him. He asks if he has heard from her and Bo tells him he has…and she has asked for a divorce. Chelsea and Frankie come in but Shawn is upset and doesn’t want to see her at all and jumps her for all the trouble she has caused and he storms off. Frankie tells Bo that he is there to serve him with Hope’s divorce papers.

Shawn and Mimi return home as she encourages him to tell Bo where Hope is so they can talk. He says he is going to email her first. He talks about all the lies his dad has told and says he doesn’t blame his mom at all (these words are not lost on Mimi). Bonnie calls and warns Mimi that Belle is on her way over there and tells her to stop her. Oops, too late, the doorbell rings as Shawn answers it to find Belle there. She tells him that there is something she needs to tell him.

Back at the cop shop, Bo is crushed, saying he doesn’t know what to do, but Frankie says that he can try to change Hope’s mind. Chelsea says she needs to tell him something, but Bo explodes at her, telling her this is NOT the time…and to stop thinking of only herself. Frankie and Chelsea leave and in the hallway, Chelsea says it’s all her fault and she just wants to tell Bo the truth. Frankie tells her to wait until Bo calms down. Bo sits alone and cries that he can’t lose his “Fancy Face”…he just won’t…as the previews show…

Alex (to Sami): I have a very specific course of action in mind…the solution to both our problems…interested?...

Belle (to Shawn): So what are you saying…divorce may be okay sometimes?...

Hope (to Patrick): I am not letting you go…

Chelsea (to Bo): It’s about what I have done…to you and Hope…

And the credits roll…
