1986 (#29) - Sven's plan and Jill's rescue with Jack and Carl's intervention

Meanwhile, Sven is the only one not happy about Jill's awakening. Afraid that Jill might remember her attacker, Sven decides he can't help but eliminate the woman altogether, who in the meantime begins to see her memories reemerging. When Jill is released and taken home to Michael, Sven decides it's time to take action. Meanwhile, Jack is incredulous when he receives the news that Jill has recognized him as the attacker, or at least doesn't exclude that it could have been him. Ellen thus consoles Jack, assuring him that she has complete faith in him and believes he's innocent. Just as she is in the shelter, meanwhile, Jack thinks and thinks back to the events of that night, and remembers that just before Gina left the hotel and was attacked, she was talking and drinking with a mysterious man, the same man she crossed paths with as he was leaving the hotel. After some research, Jack manages to contact Leonard, the hotel concierge, who tells him that he realized he had found the gun in a different place when he took it to help Gina: it had probably been used before by someone else. Jack then reconnects everything, sensing that Jill's attacker is the man he crossed paths with and that talking to Gina had revealed to him that he was a masseur. Jack, thus, understands that Jill is in great danger and decides to leave the shelter running to Jill and Michael to tell them the whole truth. Meanwhile, at Jill's house there is Sven himself, who convinces Jill to go to him for a private massage; the woman, from Sven's insistence, finally understands everything, including why Jack has voluntarily accused himself, and realizes that she is in great danger. Warned that Jack has violated his parole and left the shelter, Carl and Salena immediately set out to search for him. Both Carl and Jack arrive together at Jill's house, which they find strangely desolate but with the door left open. Entering the house in search of the woman, they find a troubled Sven ready to pack up and leave the country. Between Sven and Carl, a furious fight breaks out, which gives Sven the chance to escape. Jack, meanwhile, manages to find Jill and save her: Sven had tied her up and locked her in a cold room, where she would surely find death. Everyone's overjoyed to see Jill alive again.
