Andre is about to exit the pub but stops in his tracks when he sees Steve and Stefano on the news. Turning up the volume, the group stares in shock as Steve sends out a message to Andre: return Roman Brady alive or he'll execute Stefano on live TV.

At the cemetery, Bo fills Hope in on Steve's reaction to Benjy's death. He's just thankful Stefano has police protection so Steve can't do anything stupid. Just then, the guard who was posted outside Stefano's door arrives and Bo realizes Steve tricked the guard into leaving. Bo and Hope rush to the hospital, but Steve and Stefano are nowhere to be found. Hope alerts Bo to the TV where they see Steve holding a gun on Stefano.

Meanwhile, Roman has a bomb strapped to his body and it's counting down as a horrified Sami and E.J. look on. At the last conceivable second, Andre defuses the bomb and spares Roman's life.
