He purposely avoids mentioning Allie but Chanel pushes him to update her. Marlena helps Talia work through her feelings for Chanel and encourages her to talk to Chanel about how she feels.
Johnny tells Chanel about Allie’s new boyfriend and how happy they are and Chanel is happy for them. Johnny tells Chanel that no one can compare to her and she asks about his breakup with Wendy. He is about to tell her that Wendy chose Tripp because she thought Johnny still had feelings for Chanel but Talia interrupts them. Johnny leaves them to talk and Talia confesses her feelings for Chanel.
Talia asks Chanel if she can return those feelings but then gets scared and leaves. Chanel is very confused. At Steve and Kayla’s, Paulina tells Abe what happened to the bakery and asks him to go back to work as the mayor to help Chanel. Kayla thinks it’s too soon but Abe decides that he wants to do it.
