Roman and Bo try to convince Caroline that Shawn Sr. will recover, speculate about some link with the old secret in Ireland, and reproach John not to have told them he's Tony's half-brother. Cassie wants Belle's job, supporting Shawn; Tony warns the twins Bradys will always turn on DiMeras, and indeed John does so till Marlena pulls him away. Rex decides they still go to hospital, for Shawn's and Marlena's sake, but warns Cassie not to risk her friendship with Shawn by rivaling Belle. When Bart reports John no longer petitions to have Daphne dug up, Tony believes Marlena has become his unexpected ally and swears to destroy the Brady-clan, for one thing with the forged letter from Colin. Once the tests are conclusive, Dr. Craig Wesley releases Shawn Sr. to the family, stressing medication and no stress. When Marlena says she wants the feud with the DiMeras to end with her generation, John answers it's going to end soon, but that takes a war.
