Sami and Marlena have a mother/daughter talk. Sami tells her about Austin. Marlena tells her to go for it. Then she has another heart to heart with Carrie and tells her to go after the man that she loves. As Marlena does her usual "possessed" laugh from her hospital bed, Sami plants herself naked in Austin's bed and flaunts herself at him. Carrie arrives on his doorstep.
