Bo told Billie that he wanted to start a relationship with her but they would have to wait until the murder investigation was over. He warned Billie that Pat Hamilton could not find out about their involvement. Bo took Billie to the basement where Curtis hid, hoping that the place would cause her to remember what happened the night Curtis died. Billie had a number of flashbacks, remembering threatening Curtis, Curtis drugging her and seeing Curtis's gun. She told Bo that she remembered Curtis giving her heroin. She ran out of the storage room and saw Curtis standing on the stairs. The person wearing black, who broke into Belle's room, picked up Belle and left out the window. Marlena and Roman returned home to find Sami asleep in the living room. Marlena went to check on Belle and found her gone. While looking for Belle, they saw a ladder outside the window. Roman called the police. John was passing by and saw the activity at the house. He came in to see what was wrong and Marlena told him that Belle had been kidnapped. John instantly thought that Stefano was responsible. He left to confront Stefano, while Roman stayed to comfort Marlena and Sami.
John told Abe that Fred Harris, the cop guarding Stefano, was spending a lot of money and he suspected that Fred was on Stefano's payroll. Fred was concerned that John was on to him and called Stefano. Peter met Fred, gave him some money and told him to leave the country permanently.
Tony and Kristen visited Stefano on the eve of their wedding day to get his blessing. Stefano wished the couple the best and assured Kristen she was doing the right thing by marrying Tony. As they were drinking a toast, they heard John outside the room. Kristen rushed out to see what he wanted. John told Kristen that Belle had been kidnapped. Tony and Kristen were upset by this and asked who would do such a thing. John openly accused Stefano.
The man Billie saw on the stairs ran and was caught by Bo. He claimed to be a new tenant looking for the laundry room. Later he was revealed as a photographer for a tabloid newspaper and he managed to get a photo of Bo holding Billie. Billie tried to get the camera off him but Bo let him go. Upstairs, Billie told Austin and Carrie how she mistook the man for Curtis and told Austin that Curtis was still ruining their lives. Bo asked what Billie meant by this. Austin explained Billie was confused but Bo did not believe him. Bo agreed to drop the point, for the moment, because Billie was upset but wanted to talk to her the next day.
Kristen reused to believe that Stefano could be responsible for Belle's kidnapping. She asked Stefano and Peter who both denied any involvement. Kristen let John into Stefano's room so Stefano could tell John he was innocent. John told Stefano he was offering a one million dollar reward for Belle's return. Stefano agreed to match this reward in hopes that Marlena's baby would be returned safely. Despite Stefano's offer, John did not believe he was innocent.
Roman and Marlena waited anxiously for a phone call from the abductor, while Shawn and Caroline tried to offer their support. Lexie arrived home and Abe told her what had happened. She begged Abe to be allowed to help but he pointed out that she was no longer on the police force and could not help. He would not allow her to go through any old kidnapping cases for clues. Sami continued to blame herself for Belle's kidnapping even though Roman and Marlena don't.
Tom is getting fed up with being in hospital and wants to be released, even though his doctor wants to run more tests. Alice asked the doctor if he knew what was wrong with Tom. He told Alice that he suspected something was wrong and it was major. Tony offered his support to Alice and asked if there was anything he could do. Alice thanked him and wished him well with the wedding. Alice spent the night with Tom in his hospital room. Carrie and Austin talked about their relationship and how it ended. Austin asked Carrie if they could try again after the murder investigation with Billie was over. Carrie did not have a chance to reply as Bo and Billie arrived.
Jonah woke Alice in Tom's room and asked how Dr Horton was. Alice said he had a peaceful night and asked Jonah not to let Tom know she spent the night. Alice wished Jonah luck with his hearing that afternoon before the medical school board. Lexie wished Jonah luck as well. Jonah asked Lexie what she was going to do now that she was off the force. Lexie confided that she would like to be a nurse. Jonah thought this was a good idea and Lexie appreciated his support. A nurse arrived and told Jonah the board was ready for him.
Kristen had a dream about her wedding but as she was about to say her vows a baby started crying. She went to see Marlena to offer any support she could. She told Marlena about her dream of Belle. Marlena was touched but John wanted to know what the baby symbolised. Carrie gave Kristen a blue garter for the wedding and wished Kristen the best.
John told Marlena about Stefano matching his 1 million dollar reward and confided to Marlena that he didn't think that Stefano was responsible for the kidnapping. John arranged to have Belle's photo put on the front page of the Spectator and Sami thought this was a bad idea. Marlena tried to calm Sami down but Sami erupted at John and Marlena and left.
Alice visited Marlena then returned to the hospital. She found out from Tom's doctor that his condition was quite serious. She put on a brave face to talk to Tom. He reminded Alice of their favourite memories and their promise never to keep secrets from one another. He told her that he knew his condition was serious and Alice broke down and cried.
Peter again pleaded with Stefano to allow him to run the business using the old methods instead of letting Tony legitimise it. Stefano stuck by his decision and suggested that Peter meet a woman and romance her. Later he bumped into Jen and she spilled coffee on his suit. Initially they blamed each other but then both apologised. They introduced each other and Jen realised he was Stefano's son. Jen offered to have his suit cleaned but Peter suggested that she buy him a cup of coffee sometime.
The kidnapper gave Belle a bottle. As they picked up Belle, it was revealed that the kidnapper was Sami.
Jonah waited anxiously while the medical school board considered his fate. Lexie waited with Jonah. Wendy came by to offer her support. Abe gave Jonah another lecture. Lexie tried to keep the peace but Abe ignored her. A doctor told Jonah the board had decided to dismiss him. Jonah was devastated. Lexie hugged him which caused Wendy to get jealous again. Jonah told Lexie that she should forget about being a nurse and should be a doctor.
Kristen arrived at the church and was given a necklace by Stefano that had belonged to his mother. He told her to pass it her daughter on her wedding day. Father Kyle asked Kristen if she was sure she had resolved her feelings towards the other man she loved. Kristen assured him that she had. Later, Karen, Sami's friend, stopped by the church to wish Kristen luck. Karen told Kristen that she had given her baby up for adoption. Kristen asked about this and Karen explained that she had made all the arrangements through a lawyer who approached her at the hospital.
Sami discovered that she had run out of Belle's special formula and returned home to get some. She ran into Karen on the way home and asked Karen not to mention their conversation about the adoption lawyer. Karen agreed not to say anything. John asked Marlena about Sami's attitude and Marlena told him about Sami's bulimia but did not tell him that Sami knew of their affair. John asked Marlena and Roman if he could question Sami about the kidnapping. While questioning her, Sami told John to leave her alone and leave the whole family alone. Later Sami asked Roman if he would love her no matter what she did. Roman assured her that he would. Sami was putting bottles of formula in her backpack when Marlena walked in asking what she was doing.
John was standing outside listening to the sound of wedding bells in the distance. At the church, Stefano began to walk Kristen down the aisle.
Kristen made it down the aisle where Tony was waiting but then decided she could not go through with the wedding and ran out. Stefano started to berate her but Tony asked Stefano and Peter to leave. Kristen assured Tony that she still loved him but she could not marry him yet. She was troubled by Belle's kidnapping and wanted to follow through on a lead given to her by Karen. Tony suggested that she give the police the information but Kristen argued that the people on the streets trusted her but not the police. Tony agreed to postpone the wedding. Stefano berated Tony for allowing him to let Kristen leave but Tony told Stefano he wanted their wedding day to be perfect. Billie noticed that Bo was looking tired because of all the work he was doing on the Curtis case and with Belle's kidnapping. Billie decided to surprise him by cleaning the boat. Bo arrived and almost hit her with a baseball bat thinking she was an intruder. Billie had a bathtub delivered to the boat and gave Bo a bubble bath. She washed his hair and then his back. Alice told Tom that she wanted him to get better and gave him a book on fly fishing. She told Tom that once he was out of the hospital she would go fishing with him. She prayed that Tom would get better and that she would happily make the sacrifice of going on fishing trips if it meant that Tom would be fine.
Sami hid the bottle behind her back while Marlena talked to her. The walkie-talkie in Sami's bag must have been turned on because Belle started crying. Sami pretended that she didn't hear anything and convinced Marlena there was a stray cat crying outside. Later Sami took Belle to the adoption lawyer in hopes of giving her to another family.
Wendy told John and Marlena that when she was pregnant there were people who approached her to buy her baby. She suggested that perhaps one of these baby sellers had kidnapped Belle. John went to the pier to see if he could find these people and saw Kristen.
