News U. Politics Joe Biden Congress Extremism. Special Projects Highline. HuffPost Personal Video Horoscopes. Follow Us. Terms Privacy Policy. Part of HuffPost Entertainment. This was just one of many confrontations between Emily and Daniel. His house is to die for!

Of course, his party planning had ulterior motives. In total party prep, Nolan hit up the Hamptons pool, where he encountered Patrick Justin Hartley getting his tan on. At the party, the drama pretty much hit the fan.

Emily was not pleased that Jack brought Margot. He was looking super-sharp in his suit, so her displeasure was understandable. She brought along Aiden and Emily was beyond shocked. Emily and Aiden talked and as Victoria pointed out, they fought as if they are in love. Stay forever! Emily was flustered and screamed to everyone that the Graysons were bankrupt.

Emily and Aiden are not enemies. More on that later. Father Paul headed to the confession box and it was Emily on the other side! I loved this. She told him that he has to earn her forgiveness and keep her secret she said she was Emily, not Amanda, by the way.

If he helped her, she would save his reputation. He first met Emily in a bar in while she was on a mission for Takeda. Aiden was a bartender who was scoping out the local Russian mob. As Dmitri's men were marching Aiden through the club on the way to his demise, Takeda jumped into action and killed one of the mobster's men. This created enough chaos for Aiden to break free, grab a gun, and run after Dmitri.

Once face to face with Dmitri, Aiden did not learn much, as Dmitri revealed nothing, claiming that Colleen was "probably dead". After saying a few choice words about how she "grew to like it", he had several bullets fired into his back courtesy of Aiden. Even though Emily was not pleased that Aiden took out a witness who might have had some answers, she still convinced Takeda to take him on as a student by threatening to leave if he didn't take him in.

Realizing there were things he still needed to learn, Aiden became Takeda's student. At some point, he learned of Takeda's true motives for training him and Emily, but told her nothing. Soon enough, he and Emily began a romantic relationship. In the middle of his training, in , he was released by Takeda when he found a lead to his sister. Seeing as there might apparently be no next time, he opted to leave as soon as possible.

When Emily found out, she offered to go away with him, and he lead her to believe that they would. Nonetheless, Aiden left without her for some reason. Takeda used this as an opportunity to teach Emily a lesson about trust and compassion and how it can affect their plans. Hurt from his betrayal, Emily began to close herself off and had become afraid to trust anyone the same way again.

To make matters worse, Aiden's mission was for nothing as it led him no closer to finding his sister. Both Emily and Aiden come back for training under Takeda in , but this time, Emily obviously no longer trusts Aiden. Aiden has apparently returned from his failed mission, and now he is bent on getting Emily on the right track. Takeda then decides to send Aiden to the Hamptons as he does not believe that Emily has the courage to see her plan through, while Emily merely thinks that Aiden and Takeda were interfering with her plans.

Aiden was constantly in Emily's shadow; doing things for her she may or may not know about. By Resurrection , Aiden is at the Hamptons and watching Emily from afar. Aiden now also acts as Takeda's proxy on the board of Grayson Global , tasked to destabilize the company from the inside. Later, he comes into Emily's house and shoots Gordon Murphy before he could cut Emily's throat. Although he has Emily's best interests at heart, he is mainly focused on keeping Emily's on track of her real mission.

He gets rid of any possible distractions, particularly a hotel key he found in Gordon Murphy's pockets. With the key, Aiden retrieves the flight recorder of the airplane Gordon had just blown up.

He later comes across Kara Wallace , Emily's mother, managing the motel Murphy was staying in. While posing as a police detective, he shows her a sketch of Murphy and warns her about him, not knowing that she is actually married to him. When Emily confronts him about finding Kara, Aiden denies this and later goes back to meet Kara again. This time, he poses as Gordon Murphy's friend and is fooled by Kara, who had lead him to believe that she was believing him. She ties him up to a chair, which he eventually escapes, but not before Emily had regained her memories about Kara.

Heartbroken, Aiden comforts Emily. When Emily wakes up, Aiden tries to comfort her more, but she tells him that her father lied to her about Kara's death to protect her.

Aiden then tells her that he and David "share the same protective instinct" before confessing that Gordon Murphy was in fact Kara's new husband. When he tries to console Emily again, she coldly tells him that she merely needed someone and he happened to be there, and that it meant nothing.

As Takeda's proxy, Aiden gains access to Grayson Global. He was in a meeting with Conrad when Victoria calls about Kara's survival. Despite, being outside, Aiden hears the conversation and reports back to Emily. But now, he goes and asks Nolan directly a proof of David's investment in Nolcorp. After Aiden makes it clear that he is there for Emily, they make up and rekindle their relationship. In " Revelations ", Daniel becomes aware that Emily and Aiden are a couple and is visibly jealous.

In " Power ", Aiden is contacted by Helen , who claims that the Initiative have been keeping Colleen alive since he killed Dmitri in and that they will be needing his assistance later.

Helen gives video proof of this to Aiden in " Collusion ", offering to return her to him in exchange for killing Victoria. Emily stops him as he is about to snipe her, arguing that he will be under the Initiative's control if he goes through with it and saying they will get back Colleen on their own terms. Helen responds by sending him a video of Colleen being killed by a drug overdose. In a fit of anger, Aiden partly blames Emily for not being able to stop his sister's apparent death.

He goes to investigate further, only to find out that Colleen had been dead for years. Near the end of " Truth, Part 2 ", Aiden decides to leave the revenge plan, feeling that it leads nowhere. He gives her a key to a villa in Capri they talked about going to together and leaves. However, he is later arrested when trying to cross the border into Canada and is taken back to New York, where he is questioned about the Grayson Global bombing.

However, the police let him go when they find fake information implicating Nolan, who is arrested as well. Aiden later shows up at Emily's home when Daniel goes there.
