Ben opens the door after a long time and glances back over his shoulder. Ciara wonders what is wrong ... Gwen tells Chad to go before Jake comes storming in. She promises to back him up when he speaks with Abigail. He knows Abigail already knows he only wants her and goes to contact Shin. He decides they are done and doubts it when she warns Jake could still pose a problem. Downstairs Shin and Jake are having a drink. Shin now updates Gabi on the Collins deal ...

Ben numbly notes Marlena had an emergency. He was waiting but would rather be home alone with her. Ciara loves the sound of that and they leave together. Drums of doom play ... As Gwen perches on the bed she points out to confident Chad that Jake even hoodwinked the Philly mafia. Chad gets a call and is shocked to hear the Collins deal closed ... Shin informs Gabi that Collins was keen on Jake’s down to earth style. Jake just knew it! Shin is grateful Gabi brought him to the meeting and will be in touch. Triumphant Jake lets out a laugh and licks his fingers like he did at dinner. He expects Gabi to thank him ... Rafe is happy Hope is herself again and apologizes for being like a guy not a cop. Hope gushes about the guy. However, they should be friends and good cops for the moment. He agrees and he welcomes her back. Exit Hope. Rafe sighs ... Ciara and distracted Ben walk through the square hand in hand. Ciara tells him Rafe and Hope are trying to track down Eve and her minion. He mutters Vincent and notices her necklace. Claire comes running and hyperventilates Eve is here ...
