If Sami doesn't tell Rafe about the ransom note, that will totally be the force that drives them apart. After everything he has done for her, there should be really no doubt in her mind. At the very least, she should hint it to him without being obvious.

It will be hard to do justice to any memorial for Mickey since most of he people he was closest to are gone. Nathan will have to pretend he was close to his grandfather even though they never interacted. However, Michael was always the child Mickey was closest to. He raised him as his own & Michael continued to call him Dad after he learned Bill was his biological father.

I do hope they show flashbacks. Mickey (Marty) & Maggie's love story was one of my favorites. Before that, I enjoyed Mickey in his triangle with Bill & Laura. I have no doubt Suzanne Rogers will break our hearts.

Thursday
Nicole is about to be sentenced by the judge;
Friday
Sami remains torn over whether to tell Rafe about the ransom note;


This sounds interesting, I am still hoping for team Sole to take down the Dimeras.
Nicole with the power and money of being married to the Dimera and Sami with the history. Just my dream of course.

Oh good, love it. :wub: I remember Sami giving a silent prayer for (Rafe's life) not to be messed up because of hers, and she knows how much being an FBI agent meant/means to him. I don't think she wants to conflict that. Sami's mother heart wants to do whatever the kidnapper wants yet Rafe knows differently because of professional experience. Good Safe angst, I can't wait to see this play. Thanks for the spoilers.

First Sami's has got some bad advice from Hope... con to telling him. Sami loves Rafe.... pro to telling him. I guarantee you there are many pros and cons... Rafe and Sami will probably have problems due to this... no probably about it with spoilers of the future saying what they say. But I love what GG said that they couldn't just sit around having picnics all the time, so I guess angst is bound to happen. SAFE...

Yawnsville.

A "note" and a "meeting" are not Big Secrets That Tear Couples Apart. Now, if SamiLena and RafeJohn were MARRIED and in a lifelong committed relationship, OK, I would buy it. Even then, it's quite a stretch.

DOOL has been so outstanding the past couple months. If they use a "note" and a "meeting" as a method to break up a couple, it would be a mjor cop-out. It makes the Bo-Hope breakup over CiaraNapping+ZackDeath almost Shakespearean, and we all know that their current marital distress has been weak at best.

There must be more to this. And a twist that is worthy of all this effort.

I suspect that the memorial service is held off-screen. There can be plenty of nice flashbacks using those in the cast who interacted with him. Maggie/Hope/Bo/Julie/Doug/Caroline/Abe/Lexie/Stefano/Victor/Vivian/Kate/Sami/Lucas can all tell stories to the newbies as they return from the service and mourn the Fallen Horton in Maggie's Kitchen, the Bope Living Room, the Brady Pub, the Kiriakis Foyer, and the Salem Cemetery/Park.

Alice, Melissa, Sarah, and the others in his past can easily be explained off-screen with commentary from Hope ("I just put Gran to bed. She's so devastated but she'll be fine. Now where is that Carly Beeyotch?") or Nathan ("Steph, I just dropped my mom and Aunt Sarah off at the airport, can you help me get through my pain by throwing your slutty self at me like you have done every time you break up with Philip K even though we haven't really even dated?") or Julie ("Jack, Jennifer and Abby were so upset they were stranded in Europe during that airline strike and couldn't be here, but they are still looking forward to Gran meeting them in Africa next month. Their trip to see Bill and Laura is just the tonic she needs to get through this.").

I would just love to see Stefano reminisce about how he kidnapped Mickey in the 80s and held him hostage on a deserted island, allowing Maggie to fall in love and nearly marry Don Craig. Sadly, the DiMeras are now being portrayed as Misunderstood Good Guys and Victims, so I imagine nothing will even be referenced. In the cartoonish JER Years, I can see Stefano, all decked out in his dark, pricey European-styled Funeral Suit, settling into a nice comfy chair in front of the fireplace, lighting up his cigar, lifting a Strega, toasting a one-time rival, and flashing back to one of his first successful Salem Kidnappings.

I fear that Mickey will die on the "cruise" and Maggie will just come back to Salem as The Widow Horton, saying he collapsed, died, and she dumped his ashes into the sea. Or even worse that he simply fell overboard after they spent an evening dancing on the Lido Deck.

The show has been so good the past few months. I hope they don't blow this.

And the Anna! surprise makes me ever-hopeful that another handful of former castmates were smuggled in for secret tapings.

I don't think his kidnapping is a secret he's keeping from Sami, I think it's just something he hasn't figured out how to tell her. This is why I think so... first last week he told Carly it's something he's been meaning to tell Sami. Sami right now is stressed out, and telling her that will cause her to worry about him every time he steps out that door. I think that's why he pleaded for her to be patient with him, because that is gonna be a story that is going to upset her, a lot. She might even blame herself, she's the one that starting talking to Meridith. She's the one that was the root of the problems Rafe had with Nicole and Stefano. Now, in the end... none of it was her fault, but Sami loves Rafe and she doesn't want him hurt by her life. This is something she prayed not to have happen. But the road of true love isn't always smooth, people would say that they are so different. But the fact of the matter is that is why they are the perfect match, IMO. She's wild, passionate, and goes with her emotions. He is calm, grounded, and methodical. Though their personalities will sometimes clash, they fill in what the other is missing. He's the tails to her heads, together they are the whole coin... I love that she's torn, cause it says she wants to. And with him, he wants too tell her, just don't know how, I think.

Wonderful post! I agree with your take on why Sami and Rafe are so good and compliment each other.....two halves of the same coin that make one whole.

I also agree about why Rafe has not told Sami about Meredith and the kidnapping. He is not keeping it a secret because he doesn't want to tell her about his recent past. First, it was because he was trying to prove that Sydney is Sami's child, then almost immediately Sydney was kidnapped so he doesn't want to tell her now because it would only cause Sami more worry when she is already stressed enough. Sami will learn all in good time.

Whatever will take Safe off my screen, bring it on!!! Could it be that the producers finally saw the light?

This baby switch storyline is as exciting to watch as Safe for me. It was fun when Nicole carried it. Now that Safe is carrying it, it's just simply snooze worthy, and I can't wait for it to end!!

I think the secret probably has more to do with Bope breaking up and the other thing is probably Rafe and the FBI botching up the ransom.

I think he told Carly that he was meaning to tell Sami about what happened to him while he was gone and being saved and all. I am wondering if the writers are even going to go the route of Rafe's past anymore. Sami began looking into last July and here it is almost January and we still don't know, except that he has a younger sister and a mom. Really, I don't think it matters anymore and I wouldn't be surprised at all if it is just let go. The EMily thing is a different matter. I am sure that will come up at some time in the future-- like when they are ready or planning to get married.
I agree, kitkat, the fact that they are so opposite--she is so impetuous and he is so methodical, that makes them go together so well. I think even GG said in an interview, tho, that they can't always go on picnics, there has to be other stuff, too. I am sure there will be bumps on the SAFE road, but they will not be apart for long, if at all.

You know these scenarios wouldn't surprise me at all. Bill Hayes mentioned recently that he was filming scenes involving comforting Maggie. You know Doug & Julie are perpetually on a cruise. Maybe both couples are on the ship together when Mickey dies and as you said, Maggie returns alone.

I would love it if Days was able to write a big twist in the story and actually have someone like Vivian solve the whole kidnapping before SurperRafe could. It could happen accidentally like when she was in the sanitarium back in the 90's and discovered that Laura and other patients were being over medicated .... :D

I wish I could find a pic online of bald Vivian from that storyline.

I think Sami will be pleased b/c she knows how much he loved being an agent and feels responsible for his losing his job with the FBI. I am sure she will be fearful, as his job can be dangerous, but my guess is he will be based in Salem like Tim is, and won't travel around so much anymore. Agents are usually based in one city for a period of 2 - 3 years. I would doubt that he would be imvolved in WP anymore. I remember he said he didn't want to babysit-- he had other cases he wanted to be in on.

According to Jason's rankings, AS appeared in 28 fewer episodes this year than AZ through the end of November. I imagine the ratio will be similar for the final rankings. AS worked throughout almost her entire pregnancy just as AZ did, delivered her child in January 2009 and yet still only had 28 fewer episodes. It will be interesting to compare the rankings a year from now and see how AZ's rankings compare factoring in her maternity leave. Given that we know her last airdate is January 6, that she still hasn't returned to work, and that before the Days set went dark at the end of last week they were taping into mid-February, it will seemingly be at least 6 weeks to 2 months before we see Nicole again. At five days a week, six weeks would be 30 potential episodes AZ won't be in.
Good stats. Thanks for the info. I, for one wish AZ would disappear into the sunset with her demented boyfriend, Brady. Remember how hot old Brady was and how much he loved Chloe? Now he's so in love with Nicole. His devotion to her is an insult to anybody that has watched the show for more than a year. Pookie's life is more interesting to me than Nicole's whinefest.

Can Tim be his partner, pretty please with sugar on top... I mean when he talks about his buddy, it's always Tim that he is speaking of... So maybe this was his former partner. I think Sami will be happy and sad, pleased and disappointed, afraid and glad.... I'm predicting a bundle of emotions...
