She sadly walks away as she realizes he isn’t going to cooperate. Bo overhears Victor demanding that Steve not be released. Bo questions whether Victor had Steve arrested? Bo asks Victor to call his contact back and ask him to back off pursuing Steve. Victor points out that Bo is asking for a lot of favors and those add up after awhile.

He says that he does. She then demands that he act like it! Hope tries to reassure Roman when they meet at the loft. Steve arrives and Roman asks him about Britta’s death. Roman asks him about the clue of “three”, Steve tells him it is three knives and Bo, Steve, and Britta all had the same tattoo. He shows them his and they realize maybe there is some clue, perhaps the tattoos fit together. Steve wants to get Bo over there right away, Roman says no that he can’t trust Bo. Steve realizes that he is afraid that Bo would tell Victor. Steve says its pretty rough when Roman doesn’t trust his own brother. Steve suggests that Hope seduces Bo and takes a picture of his tattoo. She remembers that there is a picture of Bo’s back with his tattoo at their room at Victor’s and heads over there. 10/8 Hope comes in and finds the picture. Bo enters the room and wants to know what she is doing there. He notices the picture and wants to know what she is up to. He doesn’t buy her excuse for being there. She tells him that she is working with Roman to help him find Marlena, but she can’t tell him anything more as they don’t trust him not to turn over the info to Victor. He is shocked and asks if doesn’t she realize he wants to find Marlena as much as she does. He assures her that she can trust him. She asks him to prove it. He tells her that he is the same guy he has always been. She says yes that he has changed. She reminds him that he has already chosen Victor over her. He tells her that he is staying there to protect the Brady family. She says that he thinks he is helping them but he isn’t, he is hurting them all by staying there. He reminds her that Victor is still a very dangerous man. She tells him that Victor killed something she never thought would die, their marriage! She tells him she doesn’t want Bo Kirikis, she wants Bo Brady! He follows her downstairs and tells her he can’t handle her not trusting him. She says she just can’t trust him as long as he is living for Victor and living in his house. After she leaves, Bo find a registration for Britta’s gun. Hope goes to visit Caroline and tells her that things aren’t any better between her and Bo. Hope tells her that they are even worse. Caroline wants to know if there is anything she can do to scare some sense into Bo, isn’t there anyway to save her marriage? Hope says not as long as he is living with Victor. Caroline reassures her that Bo loves her with all of his heart. Hope realizes that but says it doesn’t seem to be enough anymore. Caroline tells her she will always be a Brady and she couldn’t have wished for a better daughter in law. 10/9 Hope arrives at Roman’s with a blow up of the picture of Bo’s tattoo. Roman calls the tattoo pallor where they were done and she hangs up on him, scared as her husband was killed. Steve calls her and tells her she is already involved and the only way to protect herself is to cooperate with Roman, that the threat to her isn’t going to go away. Steve tells her that they are on their way to Stockholm. As Hope is getting ready to leave the loft, Bo comes in and tells her to put down her bags that she isn’t going anywhere. Hope wants to know how he found out. He tells her the credit card company called to verify her purchase. He tells her that she isn’t going anywhere, that she isn’t putting her life in danger! He demands to know why she is going and threatens he will tie her down if he has to. She tells him that he doesn’t have any right to tell her what to do any longer. She says he is no longer the man she fell in love with, that he isn’t the man she married, that man wouldn’t be doing the things he is doing. The man she married wouldn’t have turned his back on her, his family, to go chasing after a low life criminal. She says that he has been saying that he isn’t a Brady and she finally agrees with him. He isn’t good enough to be a Brady! He finally tells her if she will calm down and listen to him that he will tell her what is going on! He is not staying with Victor because of his money or his power and she should know him better than that! He tells her that he is doing this so he can DESTROY Victor, that he is going to bring him down and get Victor our of their lives for good! He became a son to Victor to gain his trust and work from the inside. He hated lying to everyone, especially her. She doesn’t understand why he didn’t tell her? Why didn’t he trust her? He did it to keep her safe. She is hurt that he didn’t trust her. He tells her that he has been working with Shane and is working with him and he agreed to keep Hope out of it. Bo tells her that he has finally got the evidence against Victor but now he is having a hard time betraying his own father. Hope doesn’t understand his conflict. He tells her that Victor does have another side and points out that his mom fell in love with him, that she saw the same good side that Bo has seen. He knows that Victor is a criminal and has to pay for what he has done but he just doesn’t want to be the guy who does it. He takes Hope into his arms. She can’t believe that they almost lost their marriage over this. He realizes that she doesn’t trust him. He shows her the registration for Britta’s gun that he found in Victor’s safe and it is the same kind of gun that killed the Stockholm people. He tells her that he went over to give the info to Shane but couldn’t do it. Now he wants to know why Hope is going to Stockholm. She tells him that they need to get a picture of Britta’s tattoo. She tells him the clue is with the three tattoos. Britta figured out that the clue was in the tattoo and that is why she was trying to get pictures of his and Steve’s tattoos. He warns her this is what caused Britta’s death and he is worried about her. She tells him she has to follow through on this to help Marlena. He tells her that she can’t tell Roman about this as Victor has a way of finding things out. She agrees. They agree to keep up the pretense of their impending divorce till this over. 10/10 Bo takes her to the airport and kisses her goodbye. They promise to spend a night together in the loft when he returns. Bo takes the evidence to Shane and he agrees this could incriminate Victor in the Stockholm murders. He tells Shane that he had to tell Hope the truth. Shane is disappointed, he was hoping to keep Hope out of this. Bo assures him that Hope agreed to keep it quiet.

Victor pulls Neil to head to his office to see some plans. Bo tries to stop them but is unsuccessful. He beeps Gillian to warn her that Victor is on his way up. She has just enough time to hide on the balcony. Bo interrupts them and gets Victor back downstairs so Gillian can escape undetected. Gillian finds evidence that Victor is behind all of the murders, Billings, Gregory and Britta, and then Lana in Stockholm. He realizes that Victor framed Roman for Lana’s murder. 10/17 Hope visits Roman again. Roman wants to know what is taking Shane and the ISA so long. Roman wants answer as to who she talked to at the ISA. Meanwhile the Sweds will not release Roman and feel they have enough to hold him over for trial.

Just as Roman is demanding that Hope tells him Roman is surprised when the officer comes in with his belongings and tells him that the charges against him have been dropped. Back at the hotel, Roman calls Vaughn and demands to know who set him up. Orpheus is demanding the treasury bonds in exchange for Marlena’s freedom. So he doesn’t believe it was Orpheus and there must be another player. When Vaughn tells him about the evidence against Victor found in his personal safe, Roman immediately believes that Bo has known about this all along. 10/20 Orpheus calls Victor and tells him that they have the copy of Britta’s tattoo, but Lana had burned Bo & Steve’s before they arrived. Orpheus demands that Victor get a copy of Bo’s tattoo that day. Victor drugs Bo’s drink. Bo catches on and pretends to pass out. Victor exposes his tattoo and gets a picture of it. Victor apologizes to a seemingly unconscious Bo that is sorry to have used him this way but this project is the culmination of 7 years of work. Bo then wakes up and pretends to be woozy. Bo looks so sad at this betrayal. Bo calls Shane and tells him that he had to let Victor get a picture of his tattoo and he needs to warn Steve as they will be coming for him next. Roman is seriously ticked off that Steve & Kayla have vanished overnight. He knows Kayla would never leave like this and he worries they were kidnapped and blames Steve for putting her at risk. Roman wants her on the first plane out of there. Hope tries to warn him that Kayla might not go so easily. When Roman pushes her for info, she shares that Steve is “fond” of Kayla. Roman rages that if Steve lays one hand on his sister that he will have to answer to him. Steve & Kayla walk in at that moment. They report they got surveillance film from the tattoo palor. Steve shares that he had a roommate who was into photography and he knows how to develop the film. Hope calls Bo and tells him that she heard that they got a copy of his tattoo. He admits he did. Hope realizes that Victor betrayed Bo, he sounds so sad. Hope promises him that she is on her side. He gets choked up as he says as long as he has her that he can get through anything. 10/22 Victor gets a call inquiring why Roman is still in Stockholm.

She urges her not to give up on Bo, to keep loving him that he will come back to them. Steve, Kayla, Roman, Hope print the film but it comes out blurry. Roman insists they try again and get it right this time. A clear picture comes out and Roman identifies Orpheus. He tells them he was an ISA agent who cracked and he is very capable of killing Marlena. Bo calls Hope and he is worried when he learns that Orpheus is involved. She assures him they are on their way to the airport and will be home soon.
Orpheus calls Victor and wants to arrange a meeting. 10/23 Bo stops in front of Alex Marshall’s poster for Mayor. Hope walks up behind him and slaps her dad’s poster over Alex’s.

Bo whines that he can’t believe Hope is covering up Alex’s posters and rips up her dad’s poster. After Victor leaves, she rips up Alex’s poster.
Hope goes to see her gram and is so relieved that Bo told her the truth that now Hope can talk to her. She tells her how frustrating it is as she wants to be with her husband. Mrs. H tells her they will have dinner together that night at Blondie’s. Hope is puzzled as she can’t do more than accidentally bump into her husband in front of everyone. Mrs. H tells her to trust her and to go home and put on her prettiest dress.
Mrs. H then calls Bo and tells him to put on his nicest suit and warns him that it is going to cost him lots of money! When he arrives, he finds his beautiful wife in a candlelit empty room with just a table set for two. Mrs. H tells Hope that Bo bought out the entire restaurant for the evening. She then tells them that Victor & Slyvie are having dinner at her house to keep them busy so they don’t wonder where Victor is. She then gives Hope a lantern to put in her window and suggests that when she is alone that she can light the latern and Bo will know it is safe to approach. They are finally alone together and tell each other how much they love each other. They toast champagne, and dance together to “Celebrate My Love” as balloons cascade all around them. They dance and kiss and just enjoy being in each other’s arms finally. She admits how much she was afraid of losing him, he promises that isn’t going to happen, that he isn’t going to let her go and she should know that by now. He promises that nothing can keep them apart and one day soon all of this will be over. He realized throughout this what his life would be like without her and it isn’t a life, she is his everything. She tells him how much she loves him as her eyes fill with tears.
10/27 Mrs. H sees Hope at Blondie’s and says she just saw Bo buying her favorite champagne. He saw her latern lit. Hope says she didn’t lit it that Kayla must have. She was using the loft that night. When Kayla answers the door, decked out in a black evening dress, Bo gives her the champagne and pretends that he thinks it is her birthday. She knows he is there looking for Hope. He admits that she caught him trying to patch things up with Hope. He starts questioning her on who she is all dressed up for. He isn’t happy to learn she is waiting for Steve to arrive.
Bo warns her away from Steve that he isn’t the guy she thinks he is. She reminds him that Steve is a friend of his. He tells her that Steve has changed and isn’t the person he once was. Kayla kicks him out. He points out that Steve has already kept her waiting all night without the courtesy to be on time or call. Bo finds Steve outside carrying a bouquet of yellow flowers. Bo snarks that no one is going to buy his act. He warns Steve again to stay away from Kayla, this time he asks him to please stay away from her. Bo tells him that Kayla doesn’t understand the world Steve comes from, that she is innocent and doesn’t understand the kind of person Steve is. Bo knows he is nothing but trouble for her and is only going to hurt her. He asks if Steve has any decency left over in him from the old days that he will walk away. Bo leaves, Steve lingers by the door, drops his flowers and then leaves, as Kayla sits alone inside waiting for him. Hope calls and Kayla knows she was calling to see if Bo was there. She admits she was, Kayla assures her that Bo has gone and so she can come home. Hope tells her she will stay out for awhile this evening. Bo finds her at Shenanigan’s and then sneak a moment together and try to figure out a place they can go to spend some time alone together. Alex sees them together and interrupts them.

They all run out the door to go help. Soon they come back in as the roads were closed and police wouldn’t let Bo through. Bo tries to get rid of Steve. He lingers and observes that he finds Bo’s reaction very interesting as he is so worried. Bo says of course he is worried about his wife.

Bo continues to play dumb. Victor tells him to knock it off as he saw Bo & Hope after their little performance yesterday. He confronts him about planting the bug. Bo says that he was angry as Victor was excluding him from meetings and didn’t want him to come to Sweden, he was feeling left out. Victor questions him about what he overheard. Bo says he was trying to get something that was valuable, he says he didn’t understand all that he heard. Victor snarks he would have gotten it last night if not for Bo and wants an explanation. Bo continues that he saw a guy he recognized from meetings at some point (Orpheus) and he saw him go into the storm drain. He thought that was odd so he followed him. When he found him standing over Roman with a gun pointed at him, of course he acted to stop him. He points out that Roman is after all his brother and while they may have had their differences, he wasn’t going to stand there and watch this guy shoot him. Bo says he would do it again even if it did screw up Victor’s plan. Victor warns that he doesn’t like Bo sneaking around behind his back and to just ask him if he wants to know something. So Bo wants to know what he is after? Victor is quiet. Bo points out that he told him the truth. Bo says fine, that he will take the first flight back to Salem, finish up any business ends and get out of his life for good. He walks towards the door, but Victor stops him. He tells him that 7 years ago he made a deal involving several million dollars in treasury bonds. Victor demands that he show his loyalty to Victor by getting him the bonds from Roman. Bo tells him that he can’t do that as Roman doesn’t have the bonds, Orpheus does. He tells him he saw Orpheus stuffing them in his jacket. Bo says if he doesn’t believe him that he should ask Orpheus. Victor sets up a meeting with Orpheus and demands that Bo is there too. Kayla calls Bo and tells him she has to see him, that it is urgent. Bo isn't happy that Kayla tricked him. Roman sends her on her way so he can talk to Bo. Roman asks Bo for his help. He fills Bo in that Orpheus is working for Kiriakis and he thinks he has Marlena but the notes he has been getting don’t make sense. The notes still talk about a trade but doesn’t make sense as Orpheus has the bonds and he thought he had Marlena. He wants Bo to get info to help him find Marlena. Bo refuses and says he can’t help him. Roman punches him. After Roman leaves, Kayla comes back and apologizes to him. Meanwhile, Hope and Roman are back walking the street. Roman shares a note that he found in his hotel room from Orpheus: “If you have the bonds, ready to make the exchange, will be in touch.” They don’t understand why Orpheus would say that as he knows that Roman doesn’t want to have the bonds. Later, Hope runs into Steve. They talk about the note that was left and that they don’t know who has Orpheus. He also tells her that Kayla arranged to meet with Bo, and Roman. Hope gets upset that Roman didn’t come to her. Steve defends that Roman thought it would be too painful for her. She gets upset that how could Roman think that Bo would be involved in anything that could harm Marlena. She gets faint and has to sit down. He tells her not to do this to him again, last time she did this she was pregnant. He guesses that she is pregnant again. She tells him it happened on their honeymoon but a lot has changed for them since then. She insists that she will raise the baby on her own. He tells her that if Bo isn’t there for her, that he will be. She thanks him but assures him that if she needs Bo that he will be there for her. Hope finds Bo on the docks and he fills her in on Roman’s request. Hope knows he is going to try to help Roman find Marlena, though Roman can’t know he is helping. Bo tells her that he is going to a meeting with Orpheus & Victor and will try to find out if he has Marlena. Hope is worried and thinks maybe Bo should get out now. He tells her that he can’t, he has to help find Marlena. Bo goes to the meeting. Victor demands to know if he has the bonds? Orpheus says that he does but refuses to turn them over to Victor as he plans on trading them for Marlena. He wants Roman, and can only get him by getting Marlena. Bo looks on in surprise as obviously Orpheus doesn’t have him. After Orpheus leaves, Bo is angry that Victor violated their deal to keep the Brady’s out of his dealings. Victor said he didn’t know anything about Orpheus vendetta against Roman until just recently and there is nothing he can do about it as Orpheus is a madman.
A messenger tries to slip a note to Roman to meet at midnight to do the exchange. Roman grabs the guy and forces him to call his boss. Roman tells him that he isn’t going to any meeting until he talks to his wife. 11/20 Bo arrives and fills Roman in that Orpheus doesn’t have Marlena but he does plan on using the bonds to trade for her. He warns that ultimately, Orpheus wants Roman and will use Marlena as leverage against him. Next, Bo walks in on Steve & Kayla arguing and he thinks he is taking Kayla’s side and she blasts both of them for trying to appoint themselves guardian of her life! Later, Marlena calls Roman! He is so relieved to hear her voice. She tells him that she is okay, she just wants this to be over with and be home. The guard comes back on the phone and asks Roman if he has the bonds. Roman lies and says he does and they arrange a meet and greet. Of course Roman is told to come alone. Orpheus then calls Vaughn and tries to arrange a trade for the bonds for Marlena and also gets the meet and greet. Vaughn is holding Marlena as leverage to get the bonds in exchange for Marlena. After the call, Gillian tells Vaughn that Shane has found out that they have Marlena and is on his way to Stockholm to tell Marlena. She warns him that he needs to let Marlena go before this gets any worse. He tells her they are going to Stockholm. Steve, Roman, Hope all leave for the pier. Shane arrives at the hotel and tells Kayla that the ISA has Marlena and always has. Bo shows up and tells Hope that he couldn’t let her go down there alone. On the pier Roman is ready to make the exchange, Gillian is there in the distance in the fog in a blonde wig. Orpheus appears and says he has the bonds and he wants Marlena. 11/21 Roman yells at Gillian disguised as Marlena to run. She pulls a gun and Orpheus knocks it out of her hand. Shane comes running up and dives towards Gillian just as Orpheus shoots at her and Shane dives in front of her and is shot. Orpheus then grabs Gillian as a hostage. Steve goes to help Kayla with Shane. Bo comes up behind Orpheus and grabs his gun, and Gillian is able to get away. Bo and Orpheus fight as Roman takes on the two ISA guys. Orpheus gets away from Bo and dives into the water, Bo follows him as Hope yells NO!
Shane is taken away by ambulance and Hope asks Kayla if he is going to be okay. She doesn’t know as she says he has lost a lot of blood and it doesn’t look good. Kayla & Steve go with Shane to the hospital, while Hope waits for Bo on the docks. Roman demands that Gillian tell him what is going on? She tells him that the ISA has Marlena as they knew he would be motivated to find the bonds. He is beyond shocked and realizes she knew the entire time. He demands to know where his wife is. Unfortunately, Gillian doesn’t know.
Bo swims back to the dock and tells her he is fine but Orpheus got away. She is so relieved to see him. After they reunited, she heads to the hospital. Kayla tells her that Shane is still unconscious. As soon as Kayla & Steve leave, Bo arrives and goes and sits by Shane’s beside. 11/24 Steve & Kayla and Hope watch as Shane crashes and the ER staff being immediate CPR. He flatlines but is brought back to life as his friends sigh in relief. Back at the hotel, when Victor sees Hope with Bo, he asks if they are going to stop sneaking around behind his back? Hope questions why Bo’s personal life is any of his business? He says the fact that they felt they had to sneak around made him suspicious. He leaves to pack to head home. Hope complains to Bo annoyed that Victor assumes Bo is going back to the mansion. Hope begs him to come home with her so they can wake up together every morning. He tells her he is very close to getting the evidence he needs against Victor. He offers to go back to the loft with her if that is what she wants. She relents and says that he would be throwing away months worth of work and asks him how much more time he needs? He guesses 1-2 months. She agrees. Hope goes to see Roman and asks where Marlena is? Steve & Kayla come in wanting to see Marlena too. Roman tells them that he doesn’t have her, that Orpheus does. Roman tells them about accidentally shooting and killing Orpheus’ wife. He tells them Orpheus threatened him over the phone, “Your wife for mine!” They all offer to help Roman get Marlena back and set up a plan. 11/26 Steve & Kayla & Hope are waiting in the tunnel. As Marlena runs towards Roman, she is shot in the back and falls to the ground. Roman has a flashback to the death of Orpheu’s wife. They hear gunshots and Kayla turns to run to the rescue. Steve stops her and tells her they are going to follow the plan until they know for sure what is going on and tells her that no one goes out alone. Orpheus tells Roman that he shot her with a tranquilizer dart. He wants him to have a taste of the pain that he has lived with every day since his wife’s death. As Roman moves to pick her, he warns him that he will kill her. Roman swears his wife’s death was an accident and what Orpheus is doing is sick. Orpheus suggests that Roman hold onto his wife as it will be for the last time. When she comes to, Roman assures her that everything is going to be okay. Orpheus says that everything is NOT going to be okay. As Orpheus demands that she come with him, Roman asks her to trust him. Steve throws open the grate to the tunnel and Roman throws her down, jumps with her and slams the grate closed and they all take off through the tunnel as Orpheus climbs down to follow. He follows into the trap and is caught. Roman holds Marlena and tells her it is over. Back at the hotel, the gang celebrate with champagne!
