Jennifer: You too look very cozy.
Abigail: It's not what you think, Mom. It's just an arrangement.
Jennifer: An arrangement? What does that mean?
Abigail: If I tell you something, do you promise you can keep it a secret?
Jennifer: I know I'm going to regret this, but okay. I won't say a word.
Abigail: Dario is in a predicament.
Jennifer: Okay.
Abigail: He's being deported, so I have agreed to marry him. Since he was technically born in Mexico, they want to deport him. If he doesn't marry a U.S. citizen, then they're gonna send him back.
Jennifer: And he doesn't want that?
Abigail: To go back to Mexico? No, I mean, why would he want that? His home is here in Salem, Mom. His brother, his sister are here. His job is here.
Jennifer: You are here.
Abigail: That is not why he wants to stay.
Jennifer: Are you sure about that?
Abigail: Yes, Mom, I am sure. And even if it was, does it make him a terrible person that he cares about me, that he thinks that my friendship is important?
Jennifer: Abigail, he looks at you as more than a friend.
Abigail: No, he doesn't, Mom. I have made it very clear to him that I'm not interested in a relationship with him. I mean, first of all, way too soon for me to even think about getting involved with anybody and - why are you looking at me like that?
Jennifer: Why do you think? Because I can't believe that you would marry Dario Hernandez so he doesn't get deported. I can't even imagine that he would expect that of you.
Abigail: Why, Mom? Why? We expect favors of each other all the time, or do you not believe in helping out a friend?
Jennifer: Yes, I do believe in helping out a friend, but this is not a favor. You marry someone because you love them and you want to spend the rest of your life with them.
Abigail: Yeah, Jennifer Horton, that is what you do under normal circumstances, but if Dario Hernandez doesn't marry a U.S. citizen, he will get deported.
Jennifer: I understand that. So you know what? Let's find him another U.S. citizen, because it's not going to be you.
