DVD #17A Bo, Hope, & Shane are stranded in the woods. Hope is asleep after being rescued from the river. Shane gets a message out to Peach but she falls ill before she can send in the rescue team. Bo is determined to kill the man that killed his brother. Shane insists that Bo stay put and wait for the ISA to arrive. Hope sides with Shane and tells Bo that he is right. Shane says to wait for reinforcements to arrive, that if Bo goes off on his own that will only hurt their efforts to track down John & Marlena. Bo later tells Hope that she doesn’t understand what it was like to have Roman die in his arms. She says she doesn’t want to know how that feels, she doesn’t want to see Bo die in her arms.
