He is clutching his cell phone, which she had tried unsuccessfully to snatch. She thinks he should go back to sleep. He sighs he needs to guard her and returns to a peaceful slumber. Sami feels she needs to get out of there. She makes sure he is still asleep and reaches for the phone he is holding. Rafe wakes up with a start. "What's going on?!" She pretends she was trying to calm him down as he was thrashing in his sleep. Rafe thinks a few more aspirin and a cold shower will bring down whatever fever still lingers. He would like her to help him get to the shower. She does just that. He leaves the cell phone behind. Once he is out of the room, Sami grabs the cell and starts to gasp and dial. Enter Hilda, the good egg. "Put the phone down now!" She takes the cell away and warns poodle pants that using the phone could lead the killer to the doorstep. Sami freaks out. Hilda assures her they are getting closer to the killer so it will be but a wee longer. She and Rafe will not let anything happen to her. Then it's off, to attend to a case she is working on. She is also knitting baby booties for Sami's baby! Hilda gives back the phone after Sami pinky swears she will not use it. Exit Hilda. Sami locks the door. Shirtless Rafe now staggers out of the bathroom, about to fall. Sami rushes to his side. After she puts Rafe to bed, the FBI guard falls asleep again.Sami grabs her coat and keys, and departs, though she has not touched the phone cos a promise is a promise ... - Meanwhile, the snitch gives the assassin some more expensive information. He hands over a pic of Hilda, who would know where Sami is. "One way or another, she is gonna tell me," the killer drawls. Later on, the assassin catches up with Hilda on the foggy pier. She wants to know who he is and why he is following her, while slowly reaching back for her weapon. He replies he wants Sami Brady! - At the Kiraikis mansion, Lucas and the very chic Chelsea shoot the breeze. He admires her for coming despite Daniel and Kate. They are over now anyway. Chelsea is surprised to hear about it and she suspects Daniel has met someone new. She also disapproves of him giving Kate stress. Lucas points out the decision was entirely Kate's so she could focus on health and family. Enter Kate, who confirms this and adds "If you love someone, set them free." Chelsea asks why she dropped the doc. Kate thinks it is not her business. Chelsea presses. Did they have a fight? Kate assures her that she is fine and will be more comfortable with Daniel as her doctor, no more. Chels wonders how Dan is taking it. Kate jokes he must be devastated over losing a woman like her. The very poised Chelsea is sorry and hopes Kate does not feel alone.Lucas returns and the smiles continue. Kate credits Lucas with part of her change in attitude. She wants to have what he and Chloe have together. She praises her some more. Lucas agrees. "And she's mine, all mine!" Kate then departs to ask Henderson for more hors d'oeuvres. Lucas talks Chloe.

Kate wonders where Daniel is. - Upstairs, Chloe insists Daniel leave as there is nothing to discuss, nothing between them. She dramatically opens the door. He gets close and breathes he wants her to look him in the eye and say she wants him to go. "I want," Chloe begins and then gasps. "Me too," Dan whispers and grabs her in a passionate kiss, shutting the door. They get hot and heavy until Chloe breaks away and tells him to never do that! He insists he is the one person she can be honest with. She suspects he just wants to have a fling. Dan says that is not what he wants. Chloe does not want to hurt Lucas. Dan asks how she feels. "You're with Kate and I'm with Lucas, end of story." Dan, however, feels their story has not even begun! He says he is no longer with Kate. Chloe pauses. Dan perceives it means something to her that he is free. Chloe insists she loves Lucas. Dan demands to know if Chloe thinks about Lucas day and night, like Dan does her? "No!" she blurts out, then changing her flustered answer to a yes. Dan thinks her marriage to Lucas would be a sham. She can hardly hold it together for a little engagement party. Dan is what she needs. Why is he doing this to her, she laments. "I am not trying to hurt you," the doc whispers. He is not trying to wreck her and Lucas but for so long they have been unable to keep their eyes off each other. And the feelings are getting stronger. Chloe is unable to deny it. Operas are written about such situations, though, and they never end well. Dan retorts this is no opera. This is their life! She feels she is being unfair to Lucas. She says she can be a faithful wife. Dan explains Lucas wants her to want him. "Like I want you!" Chloe exclaims. "Happy now?!" She turns away, toward the fireplace. No, he is not happy now. He knows this is crazy. Tears start to flow down Chloe's cheeks. Dan says they have a raw connection, they can see each other's souls. He feels as though he has been waiting for her his whole life. Chloe speaks of Lucas' love for her .... Dan thinks perhaps he should go. Chloe slaps him and cries "How could you do this to me!" She is torn and now hates herself. Dan is sorry.

They kiss and stumble over to the bench, where his briefcase is knocked open. The contents spill onto the ground. Nicole helps him pick the papers up and sees the prenuptial agreement. He explains. Fatha arranged it but he said absolutely not and was merely taking it to the office to be shredded. He tears it up. Nicole smiles. He could have asked her to sign cos she loves him. He loves her, too. They sit down together. Nicole coos she does not want his money, just him and their family. Elvis announces their little child will have the best mother in the world. She decisively agrees. Later on, whe she is alone, Nicole calls Dr. Baker at the clinic. She needs to see him. He reminds her she had her chance. She tells him to shut up. She wants results and will be there soon. Once she gets to his office, Nicole rages at the doctor about what will happen if he does not get her a baby. He says the gal she was supposed to meet is in a fragile state. And they could all be killed if the DiMeras knew what they were up to! Nicole wants the pregnant girl's pic. The dubious doc obliges. Nicole is now pleased and wants to know her address. - At the witness protection apartment, Sami tosses and turns. Everywhere she close her eyes, she sees EJ. All of a sudden Rafe gasps. Sami is at his side in an instant. He has a temperature so she thinks she should call an ambulance. Rafe stops her by grabbing his phone back. "I'm stronger than you think," he croaks. Sami begs him to let her call a doc. No luck. Sami gives him water and gasps they must get his body temperature down - with a sponge bath. She does just that but swipes his cell the minute he falls asleep. - At the hospital, Lexie receives a call from Stefano, who would like to give Theo another Christmas prezzie. "I am still grandpapa, no?" Can she bring him over? Lexie has just dropped off Theo for his session and refuses to bring him over. Stefano shakes his head. Lexie is crabby and impatient and ends the call. Theo is then brought to her. He seems agitated and could use a special reward. Lexie considers. - Mel drops by to see Maggie at closed Chez Rouge. Maggie is happy she came and informs her that Nick's sentencing hearing is coming up. He would like her to be there so he can make a public apology to her. Mel agrees to attend. She is grateful for Maggie's help. Maggie also wants her to be good to herself. She saw the game she was playing with Phil and Steph at the party. She warns her she will never be able to wrap Philip Kiriakis around her little finger. Mel appreciates the advice. She complains sometimes she acts the way her dad taught her to be. Maggie thinks it sounds terribly sad. Teary-eyed Mel promises she will stay away from troublemaker Phil. Maggie must leave to take a call and tells Mel she is there for her if she ever needs to talk. Exit Maggie. Mel suddenly appears to get an idea about Nick's sentencing hearing ...! - At the Kiriakis mansion, Steph enters. Phil stands up. She is glad he called as New Year's eve was amazing. They kiss and fall on the sofa. Phil pulls away. Persistent Steph follows him and insists she knows what she wants. Phil does not want to hurt her. He needs space.

She wants them to be about happiness and kisses him. Phil warns her anyone could walk in on them. Steph wants to go to his bedroom. They do. Is she sure? She says yes. They fall on the bed. - Back at DiMera mansion, Stefano dotes on his grandson and shows him some treats the cook made just for him. Lexie intervenes with cookies she has made for him.
