Mimi confronts Belle and Shawn. Not only did she see them kissing, she read Belle's diary and knows for a fact that she wants Shawn back. Belle is upset that her best friend read her diary. Mimi explains that she "stumbled across" it and wonders if what Belle wrote is true. Belle covers, saying that when she wrote about her feelings for Shawn she was undergoing hormone treatments which made her irrational and emotional. She insists she's committed to Philip. Later, Philip shows up and, sensing the tension, wonders if something is wrong.

Kate returns home from a business trip and learns from Bonnie about everything that went on while she was away. She's shocked to hear about the in vitro mix-up and the fact that her son was in a bad car accident. Both women vow to help save their kids marriages.

Stephanie and Kayla share a piece of chocolate cake and discuss their relationship problems. Meanwhile a depressed Steve realizes that he misses Kayla, so he returns to Salem and asks her if she'll give their relationship another chance. Kayla responds by pulling Steve in for a heated kiss.

Later, Carrie tells Austin that what happened between them can never happen again. Meanwhile, Sami tells E.J. that everyone's happy, so there's no reason for her to tell Austin her secret.

Sami tells Bo she wants him to get the crime lab to dust an envelope for prints. Bo is suspicious, but Sami convinces him to cooperate. Sami reacts when Bo hauls Kate in for questioning. Bo questions Kate behind closed doors. Was she involved in the disappearance of incriminating evidence at Chelsea's trial? Kate maintains her innocence and Bo has no proof otherwise. Later, Kate privately assures Officer Eve that Bo will never trace the crime to them. But Eve is still worried.

The lab results come back. Sami is stunned: the only other prints on the envelope are E.J.'s! Taken aback, E.J. explains: he picked up the note before Sami did. It must have slipped his mind. Sami knows E.J. can't be the one sending the notes. He was there when she received one of them. Frustrated that she's hit a brick wall, Sami goes home (and to bed) with Austin. Sami tells Austin that she can't wait to be Mrs. Austin Reed, while he has a fantasy of Carrie expressing the same sentiment.

Earlier, Austin kissed Carrie goodbye, while a mystery figure spied on them. Later, in a private moment, Carrie tells E.J. she's so ashamed that he saw her making love with Austin on the roof. E.J. vows he won't tell Sami or Lucas.
