Wait Jennifer was there when Sonny was stabbed?

Ruh oh...Chad looks heart broken watching Gabi
He better not have been sad over Gabi. He just lost Abigail. Come on.
Sorry, lemme clarify. I'm not sure what specifically Chad is heartbroken about in the scene, i just said Gabi because of what she was saying when they panned to him. It could be watching Gabi crying to JJ makes him sad about losing Abby/remember losing Abby.

I don't actually know how they want this Gabi and Chad thing to play out. Some days, they are just really good friends, some days they flirt with each other. Then there are days like yesterday, where Chad is wrapping his arm around Gabi while she sleeps. Then there are days like today, where Gabi pretty much forgot Chad existed and was all about JJ and Chad was watching them. I'm going along with it because i like their chemistry, personally, but it feels undecided.

Justin running to Adrienne and hugs her? Wow, looks like he still cares about her and her safety.

Thank you JCP.

Yeah, real Orpheus would have murdered someone.

I think he had something to do with Britta's murder, and the tattoo guy that Ro-John was suppose to meet. Later, they fly to Stockholm and find the guy's wife murdered as well and the tattoo pictures missing from their shop. I thought Orpheus was responsible for their deaths.

I couldn't tell if Anne's dying mommy story was supposed to be real or not. :shrug:
She wants Lucas attention. Lol

What stunt did they do that required Terry James to be on set this week? If he is not listed next week, then it will have to be this week when Drake got hurt.
The magazine has spoilers for John for the following week too.

Lucas and Anne....hmm, you know that weird slaptick comedy troupe chemistry they try to force with him and Adrienne sometimes? It might work with Lucas and Anne. I didn't hate their scenes and it helps that they got Anne out of the wrap dresses.

Justin and Adrienne were my favorite part of this episode. Finally, my favorite super couple on screen, sparring and bantering and just being my favorites. How anyone at DAYS can see their chemistry then send her to Lucas, i just...

The Saving Private JJ scenes were really good, mostly. Casey Moss, kudos.

The Orpheus scenes were.... good and weird. I liked Steve/John/Orpheus, I liked Marlena and Orpheus scenes in the beginning. But the ending was just... dumb. It has nothing to do with the actors and everything to do with the fact that, for the super genius scary villain he is supposed to be, Orpheus is rather dumb. First he frees all his hostages at Victor's, now this. Why the hell would you poison yourself with something so fast acting before firing off a shot? John was already battering the door and broke it down without you shooting her. I like Marlena but dude, shoot your shot if you're going to do it. Be successful for once in this storyline.
I agree on the Orpheus stuff. I liked the exchanges (both today and before) but like...shoot the damn gun. And the Orpheus of 1986 totally would have.
Orpheus shooting Marlena as John entered the room would have been priceless. Lol

Why can't Gabi go back to Dimera mansion and take care of Ari and let Lucas go to see his nephew and be there for his sister?

I think they were right initially about him being more interested in torture. But that's WHY I think he would have/should have killed someone else. Shelle/Belle would have been ideal since she was leaving anyway. Or even some slightly more realistic threats against any of their kids would have been better. He seemed to forget about Paul and Claire after he got rid of each of them, and then he never mentioned Brady. And of course, Tate could have also been a target. If they were going to bother having him team up with Xander and Clyde, having him and Xander acknowledge that they had some targets in common could have been nice. Oh well. I'm certainly not disappointed that none of those people died, but I think they could have raised the stakes a good bit.

The magazine didn't have an end date for Orpheus and did for Xander and Clyde. I don't think he's dead yet.
I saw spoilers that said Orpheus commits suicide so I think this is it....Lame as it seems (but are you really surprised)I think this is the end of this SL.

Wow. I missed today's ep, so I'm just reading the recaps here. Glad I missed it to be honest. It sounds ridiculous.

I know most of you love any ep that has Jarlena and so an ep that is focused on them was prob'ly great for you (not criticizing...just saying you all prob'ly enjoyed it, but it wouldn't mean much to me because I wasn't watching back in the day so Jarlena don't have the same fascination for me).

So much randomness...again....

The Lucas and Anne scene sounds stupid

The hospital was on lock down, (yesterday JJ was SHOT, BLEEDING & Marlena couldn't get an ambulance), but Justin can get in because he's dehydrated?

Don't think I'll bother watching. Thanks for saving me some time.



He didn't get in because he was dehydrated. The way he got in was actually how he got dehydrated. And saying you're not criticizing doesn't negate your criticism.
I wasn't criticizing. I was just saying: Those who were watching 30 years ago, this story has some resonnance (I mean, I keep seeing comments about how it reminds those viewers of the old days), but for me its completely lost so an ep like this one just sounds dull & a bit ridiculous (random pop ups like Anne, inconsistencies, etc. Orpheus kills himself: THE END meh.)

For example someone mentioned that Orpheus said he wanted Marlena to be the mother of his kids but then he called her a whore. That's BIG if you were watching back in the 80's. Means nothing to me.

So for those viewers it was a good ep. I'll pass thanx.

Wake me up when Abby & Will get back

I think it's fine if you don't like it, but I don't know why you keep feeling the need to drag the rest of us into it.

I wasn't watching 30 years ago, and I got that moment because I've watched the story. It wasn't BIG. You haven't watched it and you're not invested in those characters. That's fine. But seriously. Just say so you don't like it and leave out the stuff about us. Please. Idk why I'm still having to ask you do this stuff. I've been begging you for months. I will not be asking anymore.

I love Jarlena, but I have to say I saw a chemistry between Orpheus and Marlena. That's crazy.

Salem has the worst cops and none of them has a clue how to take of the fugitive. For example; one got shot without wearing bullet proof vest and fighting for his life and other one didn't attack Orpheus when he grabbed Marlena and pushed them both against the wall. :drunk:

Yeah, it felt like a total set-up to me.

I was DRAGGING anybody anywhere. I simply said I get that a lot of viewers got more out of it because they were watching back then (for example someone mentioned Stockholm or whatever) Whatever. Enjoy.

It meant nothing to me so it wasn't even worth watching for me since AGAIN, in the end nothing really happened. And even what parts I am familiar with were a huge stretch (Let's start with the fact that Lucas is in the Dimera mansion babysitting Chad's son. Ok Chad was a friend of Will's but...& then Anne pops up (it would've made sense if she was at the hospital, but no...) with some story about her dying mother (whose never been mentioned before).

:sleep:
