Having watched the clips i must say the Ejole/Will dynamic is sizzling, RUSSIAN ROULETTE anyone? They can't put an end to this when Lucas comes back, it could be the most awesome quad in LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time.

I liked Will's "...worldly possession, I'm moving out..." comment but I FLOVED it when Sami said "...you're treating me with..." and he says "...contempt...big word, I know." I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS KID!

EJole (despite the pending doom) were amazing together, they are so naturally in tune, their loving gestures are such a perfectly sharp contrast with the secrets and as someone said it's the "circling" one another with Nicole hell bent on knowing what he's hiding and EJ equally bent out of shape trying to make sure she never finds out.

Sure there's a SECRET to end all secrets but more importantly there's is the LOVE, it's so obvious. EJ needs to be the one to tell Nicole about the beastsex to minimise as much damage as possible and start building the trust she so desperately wants because the love is a forgone conclusion at this stage, they are obviously smitten and in love with one another.
By far my favorite episode of the week! Awesome EJ/Nicole/Will. I was gripped in every scene!

Sami and Madison were great in their sparing too. Boy, Sami has no problem throwing Rafe under the bus now does she? So much for always defending her hero. Such an undeserving witch!

Oooooo here comes Will Sami. Are you really ready to hear it? It's going to be interesting once he tells her what he knows how he keeps getting in his digs on her. I still think he should have told her sooner and had been torturing her when things were going well with Rafe, but oh well.

I think what I also especially enjoyed about today's episode was no Carrie and Rafe!!! I've had my fill of their supposed chemistry. I'd love the show so much more if they kept their jovial bonding and ice cube lusting moments off screen and we just hear others mention it in passing. "Saw Carrie and Rafe at the soda shop sharing a milkshake - one straw" "Saw Carrie and Rafe tonguing each other outside the book nook while holding copies of Swing Town Seventies" etc. Spare us and them the humiliation of creating any more 'moment' scenes, thanks.

Omg this sounds so good! I love Ejole, the best thing about this episode! My favorite line besides the 'soulmate' one is him telling Will that this will put a kink in their relationship but they've been through worse. That's exactly how I feel! They can get past it. I think EJ believes they will, & that Sami will only be a bad, distant memory to them. GO Ejole!

Today's episdoe was really good. The writing and suspense was great in all scenes.

I can't get over how absolutely good looking Will is, and how good he is opposite EJ/JS. Great scenes.
Favorite scenes of Nicole so far too. Love that she didn't take EJ's bull and is still on his ass. HE is such a sly devil. Great dynamic between all three!

Even the Sami/Madision and Stefano/Bope was good.

Seriously. I'm beginning to think that this week's episode have been the most all-around SOLID week of episodes since the reset. I loved how the begining of the Will/EJ/Nicole scenes plays as almost a complete reverse of last week's Will/EJ/Sami scenes where EJ was observing (and reacting) to Will and Sami. Today is was Will's turn to just casually linger in the background (at the start). I also love how EJ has now given Will both a car and an apartment -- 2 things that are very often (and cliched) that rich guys give to their mistresses. I've also noticed how EJ is very "handsy" with Will. He likes to touch him (grab him, toussle his hair, etc.) which I think is on purpose on EJ's part as a part of "seducing" Will. I did notice that flirting will Will makes EJ's nipples hard.

At least Alice's box is open! (that just doesn't sound right). Easily the weakest scenes of the day. But at least this story is finally moving. You can tell this story was started too early and then was deliberately stalled to line up with sweeps.

As much as I typically dislike Madison and the writing for her (I actually was rooting for Scami today against her), I liked the Madison/Sami scenes because THEY WERE BOTH RIGHT. From each character's individual perspective, they were both correct and they EACH made valid pro/con points. I've actually been enjoying a LOT of Sami lately because, even when she's being stupid or annoying or bitchy or whatever, she's actually being written LOGICALLY IN CHARACTER. So Sami's going to stick with CW to stick it to Madison who she feels has betrayed her? SO totally something Scami would do.

But someone tell my why Madison is dressed like Amanda Woodward audition to be a Fly Girl circe 1994? I fully expect a clothing credit at the end of the show that says "Fashions by Helen Keller, South/Southwest".

Today was directed by producer Albert Alarr and, once again, written by script god Richard Culliton.

How long have they been talking about opening that damn box? This is just ridiculous!

It was hard for me to tell who was the adult and who was the child.... Will or Sami. :shame:

I thought Madison had a major wedgie or was wearing a diaper. I had to do a double take.

My daughter, who is 18, just walked in while I was finishing watching today's show. Stefano was on. She said "Hot dayum, for an older dude he oozes sex appeal. His voice just caresses you and that accent is sexy too." Crazy kid.

This was a very solid episode. Didn't ff thru anything! Even enjoyed the Sami/Madison scenes. Sami is at her best being a bitch. The Bo/Hope/Stefano stuff seemed like retread - and reminding me of the JER days of the same scene over and over for weeks - but at least the box is finally open.

Will is really the star of the show right now. There is not a single scene he is in that is filler. So many emotions covered by Chandler in the past 2 days. From the tenderness with Sonny, to cockiness with EJ- which was quickly knocked back down to frightened little boy, then to disgust/contempt for his mother. I don't think there is another actor/character on the show with such range right now (or ever!?).

This was also the first episode in ages that ended with the viewer wanting more!

Madison back peddling on the Sami-- spying on Kate thing... bothers me. Madison saying that her relationship with Brady is more important than any competition with Kate... Madison is making her decision based on her trust of Brady... is very character building of TPTB...b/c Sami says how upset she is with Rafe not supporting her decisions.. and how surprised she is at Madison not doing her homework. I am not sure it there was a tad pimping of Madison's character by Sami...Sami the shrew is is full form and her worst nightmares have yet to begun.

I have never understood the Safe relationship anyway because Sami takes, takes, takes and takes some more. What does Rafe get out of it? Nothing as far as I can see. He got a petulant, immature over-30 woman with four kids who agreed to marry another man strictly so that Rafe would have to prove his love, i.e., by stopping the marriage. I can understand a preteen girl having this fantasy over the budding Justin Bieber sitting next to her in math class, but a grown woman? Carrying it out? I just don't see what Sami brings to the table for Rafe at all. He's had to sacrifice for her over and over and find her misplaced and kidnapped children and she does . . . what for him?
Sami is less than a catch for any man. But Rafe has done a good job of taking care of her and her kids and being there for them. As soon as he got fired, she turned on him.

Am I the only one who thought EJ was talking about his and Will's relationship when he made that comment?

Any idea what secret Stefano's envelope contains?


I believe either one or 2 things

we will get a hint on tomorrow's write up for Monday...but either
Stefano learns that he is not a DeMira because he and Santo does not share the same chromozones..due to Alice had to get medical info to save EJ ..Stefano is EJ's father but Stefano father is not Stefano father


or

some how EJ is not his son

I love EJ and Will's dynamic. It certainly feels like a rich man and his mistress with all of the gifts and blackmail. And I think the apparent "seduction" is done on purpose. I think it's a subtle sign that EJ knows Will is gay and is flirting with him in order to manipulate the younger gentleman. He doesn't have to come right out and say Will is gay yet. EJ definitely knows and that's the reason he's so hands-on with Will. It's all a game. I love it.

Here comes trouble for Madison!

Glad the safe desposit box is fianlly open. Keep this story moving please!

^ Yes I agree about EJ knowing Will is gay and sorta undertoning it in his relationship with him.

The undertones are there for sure.

Let me preface this by saying that I didn't really have a problem with the quality of today's episode.

HOWEVER...

Everyone is acting like morons. Every. Single. Person.

Sami - You know...something wrong when Sami is the least dumb person on an episode. But don't get excited she was still dumb. As far as backing out of the spying goes, I'm on her side with that. However, I do think that Sami could have been more assured that Madison wouldn't hang her out to dry because of Brady's involvement. But the Sami Brady I know would have take the opportunity to double cross both Kate and Madison, not just gone running back to a woman she's hated her entire adult life. Meanwhile, Sami's own closet is bad enough. She doesn't need to shop in Jennifer's. She also doesn't need to copy her hairstyle. Meanwhile, I'm glad Will's finally going to tell her because I can't take any more of her "RIGHT NOWs" that she doesn't follow through on.

Madison - Seriously. What did she expect Sami to do? I kind of wonder how she expected to pull Sami out of this in the first place.

Will - WTH was with his line about thinking EJ might not be trustworthy? What kind of moron thinks his blackmailer is trustworthy? I do enjoy his obvious glee at everyone else's misery and conflict. Chandler plays that well...and with no tears. But when EJ told him threatening doesn't go well for people, Will should have taken a minute to remember that that's not at all true. I mean...he's married to Nicole. Sami's alive and kicking. Rafe's fine. Lucas is fine. But I did LOL when Sami said she knows she's not perfect and he agreed and said "I'll leave on that positive note."

EJ - What on earth was he talking about when he said Will would be dead? If Will had had better aim, EJ would have died, and still no one would have known Will was the shooter.

Bo - Okay. Most things he said today made me laugh. But really, just open the box, take the envelope, and go.

Hope - You know...maybe figure out all your internal conflict BEFORE you go see Stefano.

Stefano - He's becoming as a bad a liar as EJ.

Nicole - And she takes the prize. What a moron. All of her "tell me right now" was so ridiculous. And then she deduced that Will is blackmailing EJ...basically right after EJ and Will told her that Will is blackmailing EJ. EJ has to be sick of her nagging him because I know I am.
