Max won't even confide in Stephanie what he's up to with Nick's research project notes, which he 'restored' all night after coffee got spilled on them, and hastily had her mail to the university board. Kate tries to smoothen things when Dr. Jonas is clearly not amused to be tricked into meeting her old-time date Martino Vitali, but considers looking into Ava's case. Next he passes by Chelsea, admitting he wants a closer relationship with her; they kiss. After Ava's therapist Dr. Neusbaum's corpse is found, Bo goes provoke and hit Martino, although his lawyers already got her out on bail thanks to the usual Salem PD intemperate incompetence.
