After Sienna and Noah go upstairs to pack, Sharon asks what’s going on with Dominic. That’s a question Devon needs to ask Mariah.
Dominic, where are you? Abby looks out the window before calling her Dad – I need our help – can you come over? I love you too. Picking a stuffed toy off the floor she remembers when Chance got it for him – Dom was so proud his Papa was a policeman. I wish you were here to bring our son home. Please help me believe he’ll come home.
Ah, the silent treatment – Ian’s here to help – please, talk to me; trust me. Mariah can almost feel Abby’s pain. If someone took Aria … I don’t know if I can do this. Stay the course, Dom’s your son – you know what needs to be done – keep your eye on the prize, Ian coaches. When Dom wakes up to bleat, Papa, Mariah’s nervous and alone.
Mariah checked into a clinic in Boston but checked herself out and went to Florida, Sharon says. Devon shows her and Nick a still shot of Mariah and Dom leaving a motel – she kidnapped him.
Abby and Dom were making a snowman, she went to the shed for a bucket and Mariah kidnapped him, Devon shocks Sharon. Yes, of course they called the police. Nick will call Abby. We’ll find your boy, he promises. After Devon leaves, Sharon’ in disbelief. I can’t believe this – why would Mariah do this?
Dom tells Mariah that his dream made him sad. My Papa in heaven said he loves me and gave me a big hug. That sounds like the best dream, Mariah’s really sorry but has good news; we’ll soon get to where we’re going. Maybe my Mom will be waiting for me, Dom hopes. Mariah promises he’ll see her very soon.
Devon comes home to find Abby laying on the couch but unable to sleep. Finding Dom’s favourite toy felt like a message from Chance; he’s keeping Dom safe. She wonders if he’s afraid or confused. Mariah’s our friend and a good person – she loves Dom, Devon reassures. You have to be thinking what I’m thinking, Abby knows – Mariah wanted to keep Dom; she was raised by Ian Ward.
Yes, of course Mariah likes to sing. Mommy sings to me, Dom talks about them going to see Aunt Ashley in Paris. Mariah knows he misses his Mom – but I’m kinda like your Mommy – have you ever heard that story?
Mariah’s been so lost but why do this? Sharon blames herself for not being in touch with her. It’s not your fault, Nick consoles – he loves Dom and he trusts her. Where could she be taking him? Sharon wonders.
Mariah used to sing to Dom a lot. When? When you were in my tummy; before you were born. Yes, she’s known him the longest. You used to do flips in my tummy, it made me laugh. I loved you very much – she explains his nickname Bowie; a rockstar name. Both like it. Tessa’s nice, Dom asks Mariah to you sing a song? Mariah flashes back to ‘butchering’ one of Tessa’s songs when she was pregnant, crying and being held captive. How she’d missed Tessa’s voice. S
As Mariah hums Eentsy-weensy Spider, Devon and Abby comfort one another silently; exhausted and devastated.
We became very close when you were in my tummy, Mariah tells Dom that it almost felt like he was her son too. Dom smiles as he looks out the window.
