Sarah finds Alex sitting on the arm of the couch in the living room, staring into space. She asks how he is. He says how do you think?
They sit together and talk. Sarah asks what the worst part is.
Alex tells Sarah how his life was turned upside down by the news he was Victor's son and how he tried to carry on his legacy, only to learn the whole thing was a lie. Sarah knows he doesn't want to hear it, but it's hard for Xander too right now. Alex doesn't see why. Xander got everything he wanted. Sarah points out that Victor treated Xander horribly, like hired help at best. Alex says Xander deserved that. Sarah accuses him of being just like Theresa.
Alex says the thing is that with one stroke of a pen, everyone's life was changed forever. Sarah is sorry. He says it's not her fault, or Xander's. He should be thanking them for inviting Fiona. Otherwise they might never have learned the truth.
Later, Brady comes to see Alex. He's sorry about the news. Alex says Brady tried to warn him. Brady asks where Theresa is. Alex doesn't know. She packed her things and left. Brady says that's typical of Theresa, to leave everyone else to clean up her mess. Theresa shows up and says not this time.

Why do Alex and Brady even care about what happens to Theresa? Shouldn't they both be mad and upset with her, especially Brady? Also I'm pretty sure Theresa only came back to turn herself in to the police because she knows that she's backed into a corner and she doesn't have any real choice, not because she actually feels any real remorse for her crimes. Theresa isn't even a real human anyway; she has no real feelings for anyone but herself.

First off, I was going to give Alex some sympathy for being used and messed up by Theresa, but his wallowing, self involved pity party with no thoughts for anybody but himself was too much. How can he whine in one breath that his whole life was upended by this lie, but then say Xander will just be happy with the payday? And what was with sitting in a room drinking staring at Victor, who in fact was never his father and never lied to him? What a pathetic douche bucket.
Sarah said everything that needed to be said to him, sadly it fell on deaf ears because in Alex's world only he can suffer and feel betrayal from a parent. And this jerk still has JUSTIN, who was always his dad and never stopped, even when he thought he wasn't.

Alex blathering on was yet another example of his all about him personality.
I would rather see Theresa dragged into the police station against her will than seeing her fess up which might make Brady and or Alex forgive her.
If she had any depth she might well be worth some sympathy but as stands she is a vacant opportunist with the emotional maturity of a third grader.
So I would prefer her to suffer real legal punishment.

If she had any depth she might well be worth some sympathy but as stands she is a vacant opportunist with the emotional maturity of a third grader. So I would prefer her to suffer real legal punishment. I would've liked to see Theresa being dragged into the police station too, but this is fine. Besides, just because Theresa is confessing to Brady and Alex herself doesn't necessarily mean that either of them is actually going to forgive her anytime soon if ever. I mean, if Brady is still mad at Theresa over the Chloe situation in Mexico even though it's been like 5 or 6 years at this point, then I won't be surprised if he ends up throwing this latest incident in her face later on in the future. And now she's just going to give him even more reason not to ever trust her again. As far as Theresa is concerned, she's basically persona non grata. Not to mention that she's only confessing because she doesn't want to face any more heat from Xander, not because she actually feels any real remorse, and we all know that Theresa is pretty much incapable of feeling any genuine emotion for anyone other than herself. |

Alex is so self-centered to think this is no big deal for Xander. What a jerk.
I did like how he was dressed casually, as if to show he's not wearing designer clothes anymore.
Someone should address the money issue and determine how much money Alex owes Xander or the estate.
