BO had taken the controls as they left, while John sat in the co-pilots seat. Neither of them had said a word since they left, but both could feel the tension. Looking out the window, John couldn't help but wonder what will happen if its true and Roman and Marlena are alive.
I believe, that there's something deep inside
That shouldn't be from time to time.
I sure found out, thought love was such a crime
The more you care, the more you fall
No need to worry, no need to turn away
'Cause it don't matter, anyway
'There's something I need to tell you.' John remembered Kate telling him before he left. He thought of the night he and Kate had made love on the roof top of Basic Black. It was wonderful and perfect, 'John think about what Marlena would want you to do' 'She'd want me to be happy' 'What makes you happy' without even thinking about it he told her. 'You do'. It was like he finally had somewhat of closure with Marlena, knowing that she was dead and never coming back, he thought he'd be able to move on with Kate.
I miss you in a heartbeat
I miss you right away
I miss you in a heartbeat
'cause it ain't love, if it don't feel that way
oh no
When we touch, I just lose my self control
A sad sensation I can't hide
To love is easy, it ain't easy to walk away
I keep the faith and there's a reason why, yeah
No need to worry, no need to turn away
'Cause it don't matter, anyway
'Your husband, my brother is still alive...so's your wife' When Bo had barged in on him and Kate he was in shock when Bo told the two of them that. He couldn't believe that Bo would say something like that. John yelled and told Bo it couldn't be true, that it was some fantasy he had because he wanted Hope back. But now they were heading to this island, in search of those people that were supposedly killed, maybe if they didn't find anything there than he would finally have the closure he needed with Marlena...........but what if she's alive and so is Roman..?
I miss you in a heartbeat
I miss you right away
I miss you in a heartbeat
'cause it ain't love, if it don't feel that way
oh no
Now, I ain't big on promises, I'll be true to you
'Cause I'd do 'bout anything, yeah
for some one like, baby for you
But if their alive, than things can never be the same....between him and Marlena or him and Kate....
I miss you in a heartbeat
I miss you right away
I miss you in a heartbeat
'cause it ain't love, if it don't feel that way
oh no
"John..John" said Bo has he tried to get John's attention. "I found a clearing, I'm going to land." He said as he took the plane down and landed. After gathering what they would need, John and Bo headed out into the jungle in complete silence. "Alright Bo, this is ridiculas, if you have something to say to me just say it, and lets get is over with", John said as he stopped and waited for Bo to turn to face him. As Bo turned around, John could see the anger in his eyes, "Fine, I hope to god that we find Roman and Marlena so that you can come to your senses and maybe move on with your wife and not my brother's." "Is this what it's going to be about now...Dammit Bo, their dead, Kate and I were moving on with our lives, but god forbid that we move on with each other..." John yelled shaking his head. "Do you think that the second Marlena died, I thought 'Oh hey, Romans dead and now so is my wife, let's go sleep with Kate'. Well your wrong, it's not like that." John walked passed Bo, not wanting to hear another word come from his mouth. As they continued to walk in silence John came to a sudden stop, "What? What do you see?" asked Bo as he came up beside John.
Neither of them could believe what they were looking at, it was home, it was Salem but not Salem. "Melaswen" said John, Bo looked at him "What?". "Melaswen, it's New Salem spelt backwards". Just than there was a huge explosion. Running as fast as they could towards it, they came upon the jet that they had flown in on. It was blown up in pieces. "Great, now how are we getting home?" asked Bo. "I don't know" said John as he started to walk away.
"John over here, I found something" called Bo, "It's a force field". "What the hell would a force field be doing on an island?" asked John as he headed off. "Where are you going John?" asked Bo, "I'm going to look around" he said not wanting to stay with Bo. As far as John could see, the force field went a long way, but he stopped when he saw the last thing he would want to see.
"Roman I love you so much", said Marlena as she kissed him, pulling on her shirt. Roman broke the kiss as he did the same. "Marlena, you were always the one, I love you with all my heart and that will never change". He said as he pulled her into another kiss. John couldn't believe what he was seeing let alone hearing, just than his phone beeped..but he was too concentrated on what he was seeing he just ignored it. He called out to Marlena hoping that she would hear him. "Marlena !!". Marlena thought she was hearing things, slowly backing away from Roman she looked at him and saw that he looked as if he had seen a ghost, turning around she saw John standing on the other side of the force field.
Bo saw the control panel on the side, and begun pressing buttons, seeing if it would drop when suddenly Hope appeared out of the jungle, followed by Abe, Jen and Patrick who was holding a baby. "Hope...Oh my God Hope" called Bo, he couldn't believe it, he was right. Just than the force field dropped, all of them ran through it, not sure how long it would stay down. "John...it's down John come on". Yelled Bo, just than Roman and Marlene appeared and quickly ran through the force field, just as it went back up. John appeared shortly after, he couldn't believe what he saw, Abe, Hope,Patrick,Jen..they were all alive. He couldn't bare to look at Roman and Marlena, not after what he just saw. "We should get back, Roman foot is getting better but he needs new bandaging and we all need to rest." Marlena said trying to avoid John cold look. Roman remembers that night when he and Marlena were in the penthouse and they saw John and Kate make love, taking off their rings and everything. It broke Roman's heart to see that, but it also made him angry at the fact what John had done. "Bo I can't believe your hear, you got Roman's message...thank god. Every is back at the fake Salem, your mom, Victor, Maggie, Alice, Cassie and even Tony." Hope told him running into his arms and giving him a hug. "I knew I'd find you fancy face, I never gave up hope". Bo said as he gave Hope a kiss.
After everyone is shock free, they headed to 'Salem'. Once there, everyone is tired and burnt out that they head 'home'. Abe and Roman went to Roman's to get his foot taken care of, while Maggie who was shocked to see everyone okay, helped Jen and Patrick to Jen's so they could care for the baby. Doug found Hope and Bo and took them to Brady's pub so Bo could see his mother and father. Marlena said that she was going home to get cleaned up, John was hesitant but decided he would go with her. "Make your self at home, I'm going to get cleaned up", "Marlena said as he headed up the stairs without looking at John. John took off his coat and placed it on the couch as he looked around, everything was almost the same as it was in real Salem except there were no pictures of John. He picked up a picture of Roman and Marlena, he remembered when he first saw them. 'I love you Roman, I have always loved you and I always will'. Remembering that he threw the picture down. Marlena came down the stairs as John threw the picture, "John I know what you saw and probably heard wasn't exactly...." Marlena started but was stopped. "Oh and what did I hear Marlena because I thought that maybe I was hearing things, but no I'm pretty sure that I heard MY WIFE telling another man that she loves him, than I saw you kiss him.....Did you sleep with him Marlena?" yelled John. Lowering her head she told him that she did. "How could you do this to me Marlena, Dammit you knew that I was alive..how could you..." he yelled throwing his arms in the air. "John it's complicated, but you can't say that you were faithful to me....John I saw you and Kate...I saw the two of you make love." she cried. "Doc that was different, I thought you were dead, we were trying to move on..but you..I never would have thought you'd do something like this to me...I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive you", John told her as he headed for the door, "You can have Roman, because as far as I'm concerned this marriage is over, dead or not dead its over". Slamming the door he left. Tears started to flow down Marlena's face, she never wanted to hurt John but she did. Just than she heard a beeping, it was John's phone. Picking it up she saw that he had to messages from Kate. 'John I really need to talk to you..' 'Okay I'm just going to say it...John...I'm pregnant'. Dropping the phone, Marlena couldn't believe what she just heard, 'Kate...Pregnant...John'.. Quickly she grabbed her coat and headed to the once place she could think of...Romans.
"Doc listen, I forgot my coat and phone that's all...." John said as he entered the penthouse, only to find it was empty. He saw his phone on the ground and picked it up and put it back in his coat pocket.
"Roman...Roman I.." Marlena called running into his house. Abe came running to her, "Marlena are you okay?" he asked, shaking her head she told him that she needed to talk to Roman. Just than Roman appeared and saw that Marlena had been crying, running to her he pulled her into a hug. "Tell me what happened Doc...what happened between you and John?". "I'll give you guys some privacy, if you need anything, you know where to find me" Abe said as he left.
Walking over to the couch, Marlena told Roman everything, about John throwing the picture, them arguing, John yelling at her and telling her that their marriage was over, weather she's dead or alive, than about Kate's message to John that she's pregnant. "That son of a bitch" Roman mumbled as Marlena cuddled into his warm embrace. She quickly fell asleep and Roman knew that this would be his chance to confront John.
Roman quickly headed to the penthouse where he saw John standing there, "You son of a bitch, how could you say those things to Marlena". Yelled Roman. "Don't even start here Roman, if anyone should be mad it should be me, you slept with my WIFE" yelled John stepping toward Roman. "So its okay for you to sleep with my wife, but not me to sleep with yours, is that what your saying John?". John couldn't believe this, "Roman Kate and I thought you and Marlena were dead, we were trying to move on with our lives, but Dammit you and Marlena both knew that Kate and I were alive." "John we never thought we'd be getting off this island, and you know if you had never shown up in the first place we wouldn't be having this conversation...and I don't mean on the island I mean when you came to Salem. You stole my wife from me and broke a happy family apart." "My god Roman, I thought we had moved passed that, but apparently not, if your telling my wife that you love her...have you forgotten about your own wife?" John said as he headed for the door. "Oh you mean the wife that you have been sleeping with....I'm sure you couldn't wait for Marlena to die so that you could jump into Kate's bed." "That's enough Roman." yelled John as he turned around and tackled Roman to the floor. Punches were being thrown everywhere...just than Bo and Abe came running into the penthouse. Bo quickly grabbed his brother, as Abe grabbed John trying to restrain them. "What the hell is going on here?" Bo asked holding onto his brother. "You ruined Marlena and mine's marriage and you just mine and Kate's." said Roman. "What are you talking about Roman?" asked Abe. Anger was seen in Roman's eyes, he wanted to kill John for what he did, "Kate is pregnant, with his child......"
