Nicole entered Rob’s office. Rob is typing away at his computer, frustrated. He can’t find something.
Nicole: Hello, Rob.
Robert: Hey, Nicole. Excuse me for a second. Rob types some more. Come on. Where is it?
Nicole: What are you looking for?
Robert: The video we made of Andre arriving at The Brady Pub. I put it up on YouTube myself, and now i cant find it.
Nicole: YouTube took it down.
Robert: What?
Nicole: YouTube takes it down sometimes as fast as it comes up.
Robert: Why?
Nicole: Don’t know. Maybe they are afraid Stefano will sue them?
Robert: Now, come on. He has many more important things to…” Rob is cut off by his phone ringing.
What is it, Marco?
Seriously? Okay. Thank you.” Rob hangs up the phone and walks into his doorway.
Whats going on? asked Nicole.
ATTENTION EVERYONE THE SALEM PD IS ON THEIR WAY IN HERE WITH A WARRANT TO SEARCH THE PREMISES. PLEASE COMPLY. THANK YOU.
Rafe’s here with a warrant. Why?
“Chad is a DiMera Enterprises CEO/board member. Maybe they think he stashed something or someone here. Rob speaks louder. ITS TIME, EVERYONE. THANK YOU. Rob shouted again.
Do we really have to?
Please, Nicole. Do it for Stefano. I mean, Chad. Do it for chad.
Fine.
Robert: Nicole, and everyone else in the office put on a tie that looks exactly like the one the necktie killer has been leaving at the crime scene. This should mess with them a little bit.
Rafe enters.
Robert: Officer Hernandez.
Rafe: This is a warrant to search the premises, Robert.
Thank you. Rob grabs it, and puts it in his desk.
Rob: Nice tie, Nicole, Rafe remarks.
Nicole: Thank you.
So, Rafe, while you’re here…how have you been?
This week in Salem…
The funeral for Will was held. It was naturally a very sad event that brought together many people and also separated many people.
How will Salem cope? asked Nicole.
Robert: Salem will move on it always does.
Andre returned seeking forgiveness and understanding from the citizens of Salem, claiming therapy has really helped him. Roman responded by punching him in the face.
Robert: Andre should sue Roman, although it was really, really funny. And when Andre told them Stefano and he were father and son, it brought me to tears, it was so funny seeing their reactions.
Nicole: Uh huh. Do they believe him should they believe him and why is Andre denied a second chance when Sami and others have gotten dozens of second chances themselves?
Robert: You’re the only one Salem never gives a second chance to, Nicole.
Nicole: Sami found a letter from EJ from beyond the grave accusing Stefano of killing him and just took off.
Robert: Just like that?
Nicole: Yup, just like that.
Robert: LOL. Can’t believe she fell for that.
Nicole then got happy and shouted, WE”RE ENGAGED!” showing him the ring.
“FINALLY!” Robert goes over and hugs Nicole. So happy for you, he says.
Nicole: Daniel had something special set up at the Pub. There was dancing. It was so… Nicole was beaming.
Robert: Bit corny for the Pub, but I couldn’t be happier for you.
Nicole: Clyde was extradited to Florida on that murder charge. Will we ever see Clyde again?
Robert: Hard to tell. Don’t think so. What I’m wondering about is Clyde’s business and Jeremiah. What happens to them? Did they high tail it and run back to Popular Bluff?
Nicole: Maybe. Guess we’ll see. Speaking of law enforcement, JJ wants to be a cop.
Robert: ROTFLMAO! LOL! LOL! LOL! Oh, man. Oh, man. That’s…I bet Jennifer was thrilled.
Nicole: Nope. She’s going to stop him.
Robert: LOL!
Nicole: Back to Andre, your DiMera champion has gotten it into Aiden’s head that the only way to settle his debt to them is to kill Hope for her insurance money.
Robert: It’s just a gag, Nicole.
Nicole: How so?
Robert: He won’t try it, and if he does, Hope will kick his ass. Besides, Andre is doing them a favor, because Bo’s on his way back.
Nicole: How do you know this?
Robert: A large, fiery bird told me about Steve finding Bo in his cell. Only a matter of days before they escape and come home.
Nicole: And he’s okay with this?
Robert: I told you, Nicole. Stefano is not responsible for his incarceration.
Nicole: We’ll see. Anyway, how long will it take Steve and Bo to get back to Salem?
Robert: Fifteen days, give or take, which in Salem may mean day after tomorrow.
Nicole: Caroline’s miracle drug has given her psychic powers. She can now see Bo.
Robert: Miracles of modern science…
Nicole: Eduardo is showing signs of OCD.
Robert: That’s a bummer.
You have that, don’t you?
Nicole: Me? No.” Nicole, smiling, moves things around on his desk.
Robert: What are you—? Please don’t do that, Nicole. You know I hate that. Rob switches them all back.
Nicole: LOL. Nicole chuckles. Rafe told Gabby Eduardo was her father, and Paige was her half sister. She now wants to talk to Eduardo.
Robert: Will the Hernandezes be a family again?
Speaking of family, anything on Theresa? Eve and Good Ol’ father/grandfather, Shane?
Nicole: Nope?
Robert: SMH.
Nicole: Eduardo offered to give Ben the reward money for Chad’s capture.
Robert: He should wait for a conviction first. Do you think that if Chad is proven innocent BEFORE Ben gets his money, Ben will go after Eduardo for it?
Nicole: Don’t know.
Robert: Wish they would listen to us when we tell them BEN IS THE KILLER.
Nicole: Why do you do that? You know Rafe can’t hear you when you do that?
Robert: I know, I know.
Nicole: That’s all the big stuff.
Rafe enters Rob’s office.
Rafe: Okay, Robert. We are done. Thank you for your cooperation. We will return the computers in Chad’s office when we are done with them.”
Robert: You mean after you find nothing?
Rafe: Yes, that’s right.
Robert: Cool. Rafe, care to join us for lunch? We’re going to celebrate my best friend’s engagement to Dr. Manwhore,
DANIEL.
“LOL! I kid, because I love, what do you say Rafe?”
Sure.
