SALEM UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
Eve rushed in just as Paige was brought in on a stretcher.
EVE: What happened? What's going on?
NURSE: Excuse us.
Eve walked over to Kayla.
EVE: Dr. Brady, what's going on?
KAYLA: I don't know yet. As soon as I do, I'll let you know.
Kayla and the nurses wheeled Paige into another room. Mary Beth walked in.
MARY BETH: Everything okay?
Eve pulled Mary Beth into another room.
EVE: What did you do to my baby girl?
DIMERA MANSION
CHAD: How do you know that?
Chad turned to Rolf.
CHAD: How does she know that?
ROLF: It is part of an experiment I am working on with Cassandra, here. As twins, she and her brother have always had a very strong bond. I, however, wanted to see if I could make it stronger. And I have. Once I have the brother, the experiment will be complete. For right now, it is only half done. Cassandra can now sense exactly where her brother is and if he is in danger.
CHAD: I see. So, Cassie, where in Italy?
CASSIE: Rome. The Vatican.
CHAD: Excellent.
Chad got out his cell phone and dialed a number.
CHAD: You're going on a little trip.
Pause.
CHAD: The Vatican. You're going to find Rex DiMera for us.
Pause.
CHAD: Oh, don't worry, Stan. Your boss has given you permission.
Chad chuckled, evilly.
SALEM UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
ANNE: What the hell is this?
TERESA: It's a spoon, Anne. Duh.
ANNE: Do you think I'm stupid? Do I look stupid to you?
TERESA: Well...
ANNE: Don't answer that. Teresa, what are you doing? I mean, really? I knew about the coke, but this is a whole new level.
TERESA: I was just trying it out. This whole thing with John and Brady has got me so messed up that I can't think straight, so I needed something stronger than coke to take the edge off.
ANNE: So you chose heroin?
TERESA: What is the big deal? It's just a one time thing!
ANNE: It's a very big deal. This stuff is nasty. This isn't little kid stuff. You could die from this!
TERESA: Wow! Have you been taking drama lessons lately?
ANNE: I'm serious, Teresa. I'm worried about you.
TERESA: Anne, I appreciate the concern. I really do. But, I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself. Like I said, it as a one time thing. No big deal.
Teresa grabbed the spoon from Anne, wiped her nose, and walked out.
ANNE: That's what everyone says.
