Hope tells them Bo is very excited, and they are ready to plan the wedding. Abe has a lead on Megan’s murder. Bo is eager to help with the investigation since Hope had been a suspect in her murder. 

Bo arrives at the Horton’s and receives a huge welcome from Alice. Hope is thrilled to see him and says they are ready to start planning the wedding. He tells her he can’t, he is helping Abe on a case. She wants to know if he thinks this is more important than their wedding? He insists not, that they will talk about the wedding that night. Bo and Abe go to see Larry, they believe he killed Megan. Their evidence? A parking ticket on a rental car the night Megan died. Larry had rented the car and the time of the ticket proves he lied about what time he left the Body Connection. Larry insists they don’t have proof. The boys promise him they will get proof and Bo taunts him about getting any sleep in the meantime. Bo goes back to his place. He finds Hope there waiting for him, laying naked in his bed, strewn with flowers. Music plays as Hope begins to undress Bo, and they make love.

They eventually get moving and head over to the Brady’s Fish Market to discuss the wedding and have breakfast. They decide on the first weekend in May.

Bo and Hope attend the Anna DiMera Designs fashion show with Caroline. It is quite the spectacle as Anna has sabotaged the designs and the clothes begin disintegrating on the runway.

Bo comes running, and asks what is wrong? She tells him that Prince Nicky has been murdered and she saw the guy who did! Hope tries to remember what he looks like. Kim develops the pictures from the fashion show hoping to get a picture of the killer. Shane recognizes the mark on Nicky's neck and tells Kim he knows who killed Nicky. It was the same man who killed his wife, an international terrorist. Bo and Hope go into Shenanigan’s and Bo worries about Hope’s safety. He tells her that she just witnessed a murder and could be in a lot of danger and they have to be very careful.

Apr 19 Bo shows up at Kim’s to tell Shane that another Romanoff descendant has been killed in France. Shane realizes the Dragon has struck again. Shane is going after the Dragon and he wants Bo to go to England with him to help with the investigation. They both realize Hope is going to hate the idea. Shane gets Kim out of the room so Bo can talk to Hope alone. Bo tells her the good news is that the Dragon is in Europe. The bad news is Bo is going with him to work with him as his partner. Hope tells him he can’t go, they have a wedding coming up! He assures her that she can make all of the decisions about flowers, bridesmaid dresses, ect. She believes this is just another way for him to get out of the responsibility of planning the wedding, and figures he isn’t anymore ready for the responsibilities of marriage. She huffs off after delivering an ulimatium, about the wedding or him traveling to Europe for this case!

Bo finds Hope at Shenanigan’s and tells her they have to talk. She starts to walk off and tells him she doesn’t have anything to talk about. He asks her to just listen and says that he isn’t leaving for a couple of days. She accuses him of running away to Europe, of getting away from her and making an excuse. He says that he wants to marry her and spend the rest of his life with her. But that doesn’t mean that he is going to stop his work, that it is part of him and that makes him feel alive. He assures her the trip of Europe is just a job and he isn’t trying to run away from anything, he is just living his life the only way he knows how but he doesn’t want to live it with her! Relieved, she hugs him and tells him she loves him too, that she just gets scared. He promises to be careful and that nothing will stop him from returning for the wedding.

Apr 23 Bo has info for Tony about the Dragon being in Europe and tells him that he is going there. Hope overhears this and she does not want Bo going after the Dragon. Kim & Bo fill in at the fishmarket and talk about Shane and committment. They continue their talk on the docks and the fishmarket is vandalized in their absence.
