If Bo doesn't tell Hope about the change and she fails to appear at the trial, it will help Chelsea's case. But it will also sound the death knell for Bo and Hope's relationship. Bo has no choice. His marriage to Hope is over. He has to do whatever he can to protect his daughter. Billie is deeply moved. Marlena confides in Hope. Her memory is coming back.

Hope admitted that Marlena had been acting strangely. Bo wrestled with his decision not to tell Hope about Chelsea's trial date. Chelsea learned the news and realized if Bo changed his mind, her life would end -- quickly. Frankie still thought Bo needed to tell Hope, but he couldn't.

John vowed to protect Doc, and he asked for Hope's help.

Patrick arrived, and Hope told him not to help Alex. Patrick and Alex went off to look for John and Marlena, and Hope alerted John. Patrick returned, and he and Hope guessed that John and Marlena were at the tent as Alex overheard.

Alone with John, Bo confides about Chelsea's trial date being moved up. John presses Bo to tell Hope the truth. He can't lie to her anymore. When Bo gets time alone with Hope, he makes a big pitch for her to forgive him. They've meant so much to each other, they've overcome huge obstacles in the past, can't they come through this even stronger and be together? Hope is yearning to be with Bo again.

She should give Bo one more chance to prove his love. Hope finally agrees.

Dirty cop Eve offers Kate a deal to clear Chelsea. Bo is sent to the secure evidence room on an unrelated case. Eve sneaks in after Bo uses his security pass. The video disk is brought to the D.A. for Chelsea's trial. Did Eve get the evidence or not? Hope, Shawn, Kate, Bo, Billie, Frankie, Jennifer, Chelsea and Max arrive in court, and Hope tells Bo today will be a turning point. It's his last chance to prove whose side he's on.

6/9 It's Chelsea's day in court, and Frankie, Jennifer, Abby, Will, Shawn, Bo, Hope, Victor, Caroline, Billie, Kate and Max are present. A tough-as-nails judge drops the bomb. There won't be a trial. For a moment it looks like Chelsea's off the hook, but the judge explains that he was just assigned the case and wants to hold an informal hearing to familiarize himself with it. Hope takes the stand. In a stirring tour de force, Hope points out that today would have been Zack's birthday. Her baby boy, the light of her life, is gone and it's all Chelsea's fault. She asks the judge for a stiff sentence so that justice will be done. Next, Bo takes the stand. He asks the judge to send him to jail. He was the one who gave Chelsea permission to drive and signed her temporary license. The judge refuses Bo's request. He is not criminally liable. It pains Bo, but he admits that if Chelsea is found guilty, she should be punished. Hope is moved. The judge wants to see the evidence against Chelsea. The DA plays the incriminating videotape, but it's all snow! Everyone reacts. Kate privately pays off Eve, the dirty cop. She hopes the stolen tape can't be traced back to them. The judge demands an official investigation. Eve shows evidence that Detective Bo Brady was the only officer to use his security pass to enter the evidence room. Chelsea is thrilled while Hope feels completely betrayed.

6/12 Chaos erupts in the courtroom after it's announced that Bo was the last person to have been in contact with the video disk before it disappeared. The judge orders an investigation into what happened. He also says the trial must go on. After hearing the two lawyers debate whether the case should be dismissed the judge states that there is enough evidence to convict Chelsea, but because the disk is missing, she is only sentenced to 200 hours of community service and a suspended license. Billie accuses Kate of tampering with the evidence. Hope is in complete shock over the outcome of the trial and asks Frankie for the divorce papers. Bo overhears her request.

6/13 At the courthouse Frankie asks Bo if he had any thing to do with the disk being switched. Bo denies it. Jen is trying to console Hope about the verdict and tells her not to sign the divorce papers right now. Bo walks up and Hope rips into him about getting Chelsea off. Once again Bo denies any wrongdoing. Billie does not believe that Bo had anything to do with the evidence suddenly disappearing. She believes her mom had something to do with it and tells her so. Chelsea comes up and wants to go celebrate. Before they can get far they are confronted by Hope. Hope tells Chelsea that what happened in the courtroom was not right. But she has accepted the judge's decision. "You have been given a second chance don't screw it up." Hope tells Chelsea. "Does that mean you forgive me" Chelsea says, looking at hope expectantly. "No, but I am willing to try because that is what Zack would have wanted. For some reason he loved you"

Chelsea stated that she loved him too, after all he was my brother and I won't ever forget him. Because of the double jeopardy law Chelsea cannot be tried again for the same crime but both Hope and Chelsea know that justice was not served that day. Chelsea takes off running with Billie and Kate close behind. Patrick tells Hope how brave she was in trying to forgive Chelsea. Hope admits that it is not Chelsea's fault the way things turned out today. She still blames Bo. Bo comes up from behind and once again denies he had anything to do with it. He points the finger at Patrick. It would be a perfect way to create an even bigger rift between him and Hope. Abe catches up with Bo, Hope, and Patrick and says there has been a new development in the case, as the real culprit looks on. Kate tries to beat a hasty retreat but is stopped by Abe.

6/14 Abe calls Billie, Kate, Eve, Bo and Hope to the evidence room where Tek explains he managed to access an old yet still-operative surveillance system set up during the Salem Stalker days. He has Bo on camera and it looks like he tampered with the camera! Bo denies this, but Hope says it's clear. He did this on purpose. She storms out angrily and Bo follows, but she won't listen. Billie knows Kate is responsible and tells Bo she believes he's innocent. Abe sadly tells Bo this looks like he's done the unthinkable. Bo claims that if Abe thinks he would do such a thing he doesn't want to be a part of the force. Hope shows up at Jennifer's house and asks Frankie for the divorce papers. She's about to sign when Bo arrives. Hope tells Bo to get lost and she signs the papers.

Hope tells Bo that she knows he loved Zack, but that he has chosen Chelsea over their sons many times. Bo says the one woman he has always loved and always needed is her. Bo says that it doesn't matter that her baby isn't his, but Hope finds that hard to believe. Bo wants a reunion regardless of all that's happened. Hope wants to know how he'd handle Patrick being involved with the baby. Bo says that as long as him and Hope are together, he can handle it.

7/26 Bo tells Hope that he would never do anything to hurt her, including tampering with the evidence that kept Chelsea out of prison. He is going to attempt to prove it, and wonders what will happen between them if you can't. Hope says that she's sorry, but without proof that he didn't tamper with the evidence, she can never trust him again. Then, their marriage really will be over. She tells him that he's lied about so many things, she just can't take his word for it. Hope goes onto say that maybe a divorce is for the best, since she's having Patrick's child. She reminded him of how he behaved when she brought home J.T., not helping her when he was so sick. She doesn't believe it'll be any different now, especially with Patrick's child. Bo reminds her that the father who raised him wasn't his biological father, and how close they are. He also talked about being angry when he found out Victor was his father and having to word through his feelings. He says he'll love the baby she is carrying the same way his pop loved him. Hope went right back to needing proof about the trail evidence and Bo promised to produce the proof. She hopes he can. Bo leaves.

Hope is joined for tea by Maggie and Gran. They're worried about her since hearing that she's having Patrick's baby. They all agree that it's complicated, but a wonderful blessing. Hope feels that Zack asked God to send this new baby to her, not to take his place, but to give her another chance to love another child. They offer her positive encouragement, and remind her that biology isn't everything. They tell her that if she's back with Bo then the baby will have three loving parents. Maggie assures her that true love wins out in the end. Hope tells them that she wishes things could turn out that way. They discuss Bo's feelings about the baby. Maggie and Gran are convinced Bo can do right by this baby. Hope tells them that first Bo must prove that he had no role in tampering with Chelsea's trial evidence, and she's not sure he can do that.
