Stefano receives third world petty state president Allessandro Chavez on a command visit and blackmails him economically to demand his nemesis, who threatens the DiMera empire, be tracked down there. Then he visits Dr. Rolf's mystery patient, the ideal soldier for the mission to eliminate her. Philip forces A.D.A. Chapman to offer Kate a plea-bargain because Roman lets Marlena off for similar facts and forces Kate to accept wearing a wire at Stefano's. Max show angelic patience and sympathy when Stefanie absurdly blames him and all manhood as if intrinsically inconsiderate serial seducers like Ford, even ends up kissing up.
