Philip sings Melanie's praise to cynical Victor, who warns she's just after their fortune. Elvis is determined to spare himself ever growing heartache by rejecting Nicole and Sydney, to whom he assumes having no claim. Nicole decides at Stefano's sickbed and leaving Salem forever with the baby, hoping Elvis will adjust to the situation and take them back. Sami bullies Harold into helping her mind Sydney, then takes her to hospital to ask Elvis why he didn't pick up Johnny. Nathan turns down a balloon trip with Stephanie, already having promised Melanie a date. Philip finds him in the bar, thanks to Daniel, and sneers it's no way to court. Kate reposts to Victor's sneer she 'still can't get the dose right' by warning if Stefano is disabled, she'll have business proxy, as she earlier told Elvis.
