IT HAPPENED TODAY…
Joey and Kelly prepare to say goodbye to Llanview and move to London. Aubrey returns her engagement ring and learns that Joey is leaving town with Kelly and wishes them the best. Elsewhere, Kelly gives John the news of her imminent departure and urges him not to let his pride get in the way of a possible future with Natalie.
Bo visits Asa’s grave on the anniversary of his death. There he runs into Renee, and the two have a heart-to-heart about the state of the family and Bo’s feelings that he’s let them all down. Clint settles into life at Llanfair, but broods that house arrest prevents him from keeping up a tradition he’s begun since Asa’s death, which requires his presence at the mansion. Clint compels Nigel to help him slip out and go to the mansion anyway, thus violating the terms of his sentencing.
Rex returns to Llanview. Rex tells Natalie about his run-in with Kim. Natalie extracts a promise from Rex that he’ll keep Kim’s whereabouts a secret especially from Clint. Rex goes on to say that he saw Gigi again. She urged him not to give up. Natalie suggests that the meaning behind Gigi’s statement is that he shouldn’t give up on his life. Kim visits the bedside of her mysterious friend and tells her about Rex’s surprise visit to The Spotted Pony. Kim, made aware of Clint’s reversal of fortune, decides to risk the wrath of David, return to Llanview and take another shot at her ex-husband.
Dorian’s career aspirations do not mesh with David’s but he chooses to sacrifice his career to stand by Dorian. Dorian is rattled after a visit from John which sends Dorian on a mission to complete one last bit of business.
At EOD: John comes face to face with Natalie. Viki, Joey and Kelly discover that Clint has disappeared. Rex asks Gigi for a sign that Natalie’s interpretation of her last message is correct; then Clint and Nigel arrive. Kim arrives at La Boulaie to see David. A bedside photo of the person in the Kentucky hospital room implies her true identity.
