Clint ignites a bomb to murder Kay and Esther this week when Esther fails to deliver ransom money.
Kay believes that Clint has every intention to murder her and Esther. That's what he intended to do all those years ago, and he would've succeeded if Marge hadn't come to save the day.
Clint's plan is set into motion after he sends Esther away to get cash from Jill. At first, Esther is sent with Roger. She even tries selling her half of the Chancellor Estate to Jill, but Jill isn't buying it -- literally. She doesn't trust Roger at all.
Meanwhile, Amber runs into Clint without realizing who he is. Gina spies her with him and warns Amber that she should stay away from him because he's bad news.
Roger takes Esther back to the motel where he ties her up next to Kay. Desperate, Kay does everything she can to recall memories with Clint so that she can finally convince him that she is who she says she is. Eventually, she summons a memory that throws him for a loop.
Kay recalls a situation with Rex where Clint bought a pair of beautiful diamond earrings for Rex's daughter, Gina. Clint realizes that Marge couldn't possibly have known about that and starts to believe that this woman just may be the real Katherine Chancellor. That's when the terror begins.
Clint hands Esther a ransom letter and tells her to take it to Jill, which she does. Esther pleads with Jill to believe that Katherine is alive, but Jill isn't buying it. Esther says that Clint and Roger have kidnapped Katherine and she will be murdered if Jill doesn't come up with the ransom money. However, Jill still doesn't believe that the woman is Kay. She continues insisting that it's Marge, and Esther is getting nowhere with her.
Back at the motel, Kay tries persuading Annie and Roger to let her go. They don't budge. Esther returns and reveals that she wasn't able to get any ransom money from Jill. That's when Clint turns maniacal.
As if things weren't already bad enough, Kevin and Amber begin snooping around after they (along with Murphy) decipher Katherine's not to get the word "CLINT." Annie convinces them that she hasn't seen Kay and they leave. Later, Kevin goes back because he recalls seeing Kay's coat in the motel room. Desperate, Clint injects him with a sedative and sets it up to look like Kevin has planted a bomb there.
Esther and Kay are tied up and the bomb is ticking away. Esther begins freaking out. She apologizes to Kay, telling her that this is all her fault. Kay says, 'Esther, stop it! You and I have been through things before. We're going to make it!' Kay attempts to slide her chair over to Esther's so that they can claw each other's ropes off.
Kay refuses to give up hope. She knows that she and Esther are in for the fight of their lives, and the story is about to take a very explosive turn...
