... Sofie catches Aaron (Agim Kaba) and Cole fighting in the corridor. Cole tries to get Aaron to leave but he announces he knows who is adopting her baby. Sofie doesn't believe him when Aaron names Gwen and Will as the adoptive parents but she forces Cole to lie that he just found out...

... Meanwhile, Alison tells Gwen and Will that she thinks the birth mother is Sofie and that Cole made her agree to give up her baby. She warns that Sofie's not the only person being manipulated and eventually stuns them with her guess that Barbara is involved...

... As the idea sinks in, Gwen asks Will how his mom could have done this. Katie (Terri Colombino) is upset when Brad announces that he bought her dream house and will gladly help her make babies on her terms...

... After Katie orders him to get out, Jack goes after Brad at the farm but backs off when Brad (Austin Peck) hints that he and Katie are going to have a family...

... Katie complains to Vienna and Henry about what Brad did. Henry (Trent Dawson) warns Katie about using Brad to give her a baby. Katie calls Brad to the hotel and he assumes she's ready and eagerly awaiting sex...
