Konstantin wants Theresa to stage a kidnapping of baby Victoria so he can be a hero to Maggie and Sarah. She refuses at first but he threatens to tell Alex that he is not Victor 's son and that Xander is the true heir. She finally agrees to do what he wants.

Chad and Stephanie have an argument about her involvement with Everett. Chad walks out. Everett comes in the Brady Pub. He and Stephanie talk.

Chad goes to see Xander at The Spectator. He offers to buy his share of the paper but Xander refuses the offer because he wants the Judfe to believe he is responsible and can take care of his child by having a successful business. So then
Chad calls Gwen who is now in Alamainia. He offers to buy her share and she agrees to the deal.

Sarah tells Maggie she doesn't trust Konstantin and that Maggie doesn't know enough about him to be objective. Sarah thinks he is using Maggie somehow. Maggie defends Konstantin because he was such a good friend of Victor's. Sarah has to go to work and has court later so Maggie agrees to babysit Victoria.

Steve confronts Konstantin about his lie regarding the tablecloth he gave Maggie, stating it came from Greece and was an heirloom from Victor childhood home but Steve knows it came from a local store in Salem. He warns Konstantin that he is watching him. Steve and John discuss the situation and decide to go to Greece to investigate Konstantin.

Konstantin gives Maggie flowers but she tells him he needs to stop giving her gifts. He says he thought she could take thrm to Victor's grave. He would stay with Victoria while she goes to the mausoleum. She agrees.

Xander is with Sarah at the hospital. She is upset that he arranged for Eric to testify in court that she is an unfit parent. She tells him that she has Brady on her side. He is not happy to hear that.

Alex hires Brady to work at Titan by bringing Basic Black back to the company. Then he tells him that Theresa is heading Bella Magazine. Will that be a problem?

Theresa shows up in a black Hoodia ready to kidnap Victoria. Konstantin tells her what to do. When Maggie comes in from visiting the mausoleum, she sees Theresa (we see her face but she has her back to Maggie) taking off with the baby. Maggie yells at the person and then sees Konstantin lying on the floor. She runs to him and he says someone hit him on the head wuth a fireplace poker and knocked him out.. Maggie says the person took the baby. Konstantin tells Maggie to call for help and he runs after the kidnapper. Maggie calls Sarah and tells her what happened. She and Xander rush to the mansion. Then Maggie calls the cops.

Konstantin meets Theresa in the park and brings the baby back to Maggie and Sarah. Of course he is a hero. They ask who took the baby but he is vague about how he got her back. They are so grateful that they drop the subject. Xander tells Sarah he is dropping the custody case. Sarah is grateful.

Maggie tends to Konstantin 's injuries and is so happy he saved her grandchild. He kisses her. (WHaT A SLIMEBALL).
