On today’s full episode recap of Days of our Lives, Shawn and Ben learn Rhodes’ name, Gabi taunts Jake, and Philip decides to hire Gabi.
At Titan, Philip asks Kate if she is worried Gabi will turn her boy toy’s eyes if he signs with Gabi. Kate isn’t intimidated and says,” Jake’s not a boy, and he’s a man.” Philip calls Gabi ruthless and thinks it’s natural to be intimidated by her. Kate knows Gabi’s ruthless. They used to be friends. Kate reveals that she made a play for Jake when she returned to Salem. Philip laughs. “That’s quite an offer.” Kate and Philip make jokes about those they’ve fallen for in the past. Philip calls her love life a “four-alarm dumpster fire.” Kate says if she had to choose between Chloe and Gabi, she’d choose for him to be single. Philip admits that he was going to make a deal with Gabi anyway. She encourages him to keep it professional. She reveals she may be working for the competition.
At the square, Gabi gloats to Jake that not signing Gabi Chic will be the worst decision he’s made when Titan signs her. She taunts him and bends over to pick her phone up after she drops it. She notices he’s staring at her bum. She grins and starts sexually teasing him about who he thinks about. Her or Kate? Jake calls her desperate and she makes ageist jokes. When that doesn’t work, she tells him that Kate was a whore. Jake tells Gabi that Kate makes him happy. Hew ants her to keep her hands off him but doesn’t make a move to stop her from fondling his arm.

Gwen finds Abigail at Laura’s grave. Abby slings insults at Gwen and accuses her of pushing Laura to her death. “What if I did?” Gwen sneers. What will she do about it? Abigail goes after her. She’s going to give her a real black eye, this time. She attacks Gwen and Shawn D shows up and breaks them up. Abby goes after Gwen again and Shawn hates to do it but he has to bring them both to the station.
Rhodes brings Ciara “Good old-fashioned gruel” to her cage. She notes that it’s cold. He thinks she should be happy she’s getting anything at all. He lets her know he drove up to Statesville to talk to Vincent about her troublesome attitude. Rhodes reveals that Vincent “is no longer reachable.”
Ben visits his father, Clyde in Statesville. Ben was meeting Vincent but Clyde tells him that an hour ago, Vincent hung himself in his cell. He thinks Clyde killed him. Clyde says he didn’t kill him and asks him to keep his voice down. Ben explains that he thinks Ciara’s still alive and Vincent knew where she was. Ben fills his dad in on the fortune cookie incident and the phone call from Ciara and the psychic. Ben says Susan told him she saw a glass box and a shark. Clyde considers his son’s words and admits Vincent had a visitor. Later, when Ben’s gone, Clyde goes to Vincent and thanks him for the heads up about Ollie’s visit. Clyde talks about how Evan/Christian turned his back on Orpheus. Orpheus says it’s not his fault. It’s his do-gooder doctors that are messing him up. He learns that Ben visited Clyde because he thinks Ciara’s alive. Orpheus alludes to knowing something but doesn’t actually say anything.
Back at the cage, Ciara learns Vincent’s dead. She thinks that means she can go. Rhodes tells her that someone else is calling the shots now. He won’t say who but admits it’s not Eve.
At SPD, Shawn cuffs Gwen to her chair and Abigail to hers. He reminds them they tried to press charges against each other five times in the past two weeks. The animosity has to stop between them. He leaves them alone and Abs tries to get Gwen to admit she murdered Laura. Gwen says she’s not stupid. She knows they just busted Vivian Alamain for having a private conversation in this very same room. Gwen yells that it was an accident. Gwen tells her sister about growing up in poverty and if she complained about hunger, she’d get the belt. Abby is sorry to hear that — if it’s true. Gwen wishes she was lying about this. Abby tells Gwen that she’s not saying her gran was perfect but she had just spent time in a mental institution. Meanwhile, Ben arrives outside and he and Ben search for the name of the guy who visited Vincent. While Shawn takes a call, Ben awaits the search to conclude. Shawn returns to the interrogation room and gives the women an ultimatum. Either press charges or can it. They decided to be released. He returns to the outer office and to Ben. Allan Rhodes is the kidnapper. Ben realizes it because he has a shark tattoo. They run off to find him.
In the square, Kate finds Jake looking at the Gabi Chic commercial property for sale. She thought he had a meeting. He got held up but doesn’t say with what.
Abby runs into Gabi at the pub and says they need to talk. Meanwhile, she gets a text from Philip, telling her he’s signing with her.
Gwen returns to Laura’s grave. She tells her how very sorry she is “for what happened between us in that hotel room.” She cries.
Shawn and Ben arrive at some warehouse.
Outside the cage, Rhodes tells Ciara the players have changed but nothing has changed for her. She’s still a prisoner. “No one’s coming for you,” he says. Suddenly, the door opens and he’s shot in the chest. Rhodes gasps for air.
On the next full episode of Days of our Lives, Abby wants Gabi to team up.
