Newfound brothers Brady and Leo sit down together, but Leo is secretly trying to attain Titan info from Brady

Leo believes he's gotten the goods from Brady and readily delivers the details to Stefan, who seems more than pleased

Brady's secret weapon, Gabi, comes to his aid, and what Leo was actually left with won't do Stefan any good

Stefan is incensed when Leo's information turns disastrous for DiMera Enterprises, and he quickly learns Leo was hoodwinked

Stefan finds himself fighting with Gabi again, but he also remains smitten, reminiscing about his kisses with Chloe

Following her spontaneous kiss with Eric, Sarah shares her feelings with him, but he remains torn

Though Eric has feelings for Sarah, the complex situation makes it hard for him to give in to them

Eric does some soul-searching and pleads with God that, if Marlena makes it, he'll walk away from Sarah

Sarah bares her soul to Maggie about Eric and lets her mother know she'd rather be with him than Rex

Keen to the situation, Rex isn't about to sit back and do nothing when it comes to Sarah (and her connection to Eric)

John begins to connect the dots when it comes to Diana and starts to ask his devious ex some uncomfortable questions

In fact, Diana is a bit edgy, as she believes she may have slipped up and left something connecting her to Marlena's attempted murder behind

Marlena's fate remains touch and go, and, while doctors attempt to save her, she has otherworldly visions

Tony DiMera, as well as other seemingly deceased Salemites, visit Marlena as her soul struggles to survive

While struggling in the other realm, Marlena decides to play detective to determine if Kristen is, in fact, as dead as reported

Justin is the bearer of bad news as he reports Haley's fate to her, but fearing he will lose her forever, J.J. has a plan

As J.J. proposes marriage to Haley, Jennifer does some reporting and rattles Jack's cage as she presses him

Claire feels the pressure as she attempts to keep her various secrets hidden from an already suspicious Tripp

Tripp, though, feels Claire knows more than she's letting on, and it takes her by surprise when he lights her up

Ciara hopes lightning will strike again between her and Ben and attempts to get him to reconcile with her

A conversation and a kiss have things looking up for Ben and Ciara, but then disaster strikes at the DiMera mansion

In a moment of mistaken identity, gunfire rings out at the mansion, and Ben must bounce into action to save Ciara

The shooting only enforces Ben's earlier beliefs that he and Ciara should stay broken up for good, as his world is a dangerous place

Ted continues to place himself near Hope, leading to a rather amiable moment between the two of them

Still, Hope remains in love with Rafe, and the two of them share a special time together, reflecting on their love

Just as one sordid scheme seems to be coming to an end, a deadly twist changes everything
