On Monday, Chad received a shocking news from Andre about Abby’s whereabouts. According to Andre, a woman fitting Abby’s description got on a plane to Miami and the plane crashed in the Gulf of Mexico. While reports were still unconfirmed, the authorities presume that there are no survivors. Later, Andre worked on a plan to make sure it would appear as if Abby faked her identity to board the plane. He thought of using the alias Jenny Thomas.

Meanwhile, things got chaotic when Tate went missing at the park. It seemed that Theresa fell asleep again. When the police arrived, Shawn observed that Theresa’s speech is slurred and her pupils are huge. He saw her protein smoothie and had it tested. Shawn pulled Brady away to talk and asked him if Theresa’s using drugs. Brady denied this, but Shawn reckoned Theresa was drugged. Theresa was brought to the hospital and the results came in, confirming Shawn’s theory. Later, Theresa woke up with a start and realised that it was Summer who kidnapped Tate.
