I like them scheming, drinking, sexing, schmooping...as long as theyre sharing scenes that are written well. Its obvious from the show that won the Emmy, that JS and AZ deliver if they get the material. Hell, they deliver most times when the writing sucks.

Well, Nicole was talking about searching EJ's apartment with Rafe beforeat the pub she got there and even discussed how much she wanted him in jail, regardless of whether he actually killed Stefano. And after this little bonding moment, she shows up at the station with said evidence she found. That doesn't look like an add on to me. That looks like Nicole using her baby to screw EJ over. Again.
As she should. They are the perfect couple when they are screwing each other over. I just wish she wasn't pregnant so she could scheme against him while drinking a martini. That's how I love them best.
Agreed.

And add to this EJ is going to figure out she took the bullets from his apartment & gave them to Rafe.

I'm not so sure all will be schmoopy in Ejoleville anytime soon.

At least I hope not.
I don't think EJ was aware the bullets were there.... hence he won't notice they are missing.

Which if Nicole was thinking with anything other than self tanner fumed brains she would notice that he hasn't noticed and put two and two together.

It's so wonderful to see EJ and Nicole like this. The angst and love was so palpable. I wish she would cut it with the lies. She doesn't have to take him back just yet, I just want moments like the belly rub and EJ smiling because at least one thing is going right in his life, his wife is still pregnant with his child. They are suspicious of one another but they are so in love that with better writing, plus the amazing chemistry between the two, this story would be perfect.

EJole :wub: :wub:

I don't know if Gary T stepped in and tweaked the script or not but the Ejole scenes are great!
Yeah, EJ will be mad at Nicole for turning in the bullets..so what? He got over Sami putting a bullet in his head, I hardly think what Nicole did compares to that! Nicole and Sami both did what they thought they had to do to protect their babies from EJ Dimera....he knows that.
Anyway, tomorrow's show is a gift to the EJOLE'S, with many more to come, I hope!

I really think we have a good chance to see EJ not only be there for the birth of this kid, but lets hope he gets to deliver it! I think Gary T "gets" that EJ needs to be at the birth of this one, more than any other kid he has.

The ejole scenes are awesome. Thx TomSell cause this was definetely NOT MarDar. Oh the way he touches her baby bump and his face lights up with happiness. And Nicole letting her guard down with Ej...it showed how much she still loves him. Yay go ejole and go TomSell!!!!
So did MarDar then jump back in and write the part where Nicole heads strIght to the Salem PD after 'bonding' with EJ to triumphantly hand over the bullets she snooped out of his apartment? :blink:
Have you heard of an add-on or a tweeked script? END OF DISCUSSION!
I'm not done discussing, thanks.

Sure, and if Days could afford add-ons, I'd believe we were seeing them. They cant affird less than a three month lag time. People keep contradicting themselves about who wrote what depending in if they like it or not. This all still looks like MarDar to me.

Oh ok like they couldnt afford the added scenes for Justin and Adrianne (which we know are coming up)? Yes clearly people are believing what benefits them...totally agree with that.

Oh ya, I dont really care if you or anyone else aren't done discussing....the point to my comment was that I AM.

Carry on!!!!

Come on Ron, We are counting on YOU !!

I have a hard time believing that any scenes were added in yet. I do think some things have been edited out and we have evidence of that already, but I think the Days of them adding scenes in aren't here yet. I just think this was MarDar's idea of 'trying to please everyone'....notice how this weeks has 'good' moments for everyone. We have the week starting off with some very nice Lumi scenes, then this with Ejole and the kicking and all, and then the week ends with Ejami dancing after being prompted by Johnny. This is MarDar's bullshit still....Tomsell might tweak, edit out and we know there are some rewrites that apparently have Justin and Adrienne inserted somewhere, but I find it very hard to believe that Tomsell did anything here.

But clearly, you're not.

I think there is a big difference in adding entirely different characters to bolster a story line...which is what I assume they did by adding J&A versus adding in scenes mid show without changing the obvious direction of the overall story. Why add in a bonding moment for EJole then have her immediately go from there to the police station to try to get him arrested? If they were so invested in salvaging EJole that they'd rewrite the stuff...why leave the rest? It doesn't appear to me that anything was rewritten or added in. Nicole used their baby to play on EJ's emotions so she could manipulate him...and it worked. That was the intent of the bonding moment.

Don't get up. So how are you? What happened, eh? Let me guess, Stefano told you that you could fly,and you jumped off a building. HeHe It's funny right, no I'm sorry Bad EJ, I should'nt be that cruel!

Nicole needs to just tell him the truth, all this stalling making me dislike her each day.

Ej/Abe scenes look great, glad they are getting along for the sake of Lexi.

Oh and today's scenes between EJ and Nicole are why I stay around....those two are just MAGICAL when on my screen!!! Loved that they were able to share in the baby's first kick!! And an ILY from EJ...PERFECTION!!!! Nicole's walls are crumbling...slowly but surely!
Too bad they shared that moment but Nicole is willing to keep the baby from him :shame:

ITA. This is the same pattern that's been going on for weeks. And to take it further, the only thing that's new is not that ejole are getting happy scenes (because mardar has given ejole more big and/or saccharine moments like this than any other regime and more than they've given any other couple besides bradison), it's that they used the DBS as a catalyst to drive happy moments for the other couples in that group too.

These memorial scenes might live up to the hype. I sure hope so because I've been waiting months for them.

Finally, someone points out that other suspects are involved in this murder mystery. I know Rafe has a guy crush on EJ, but his obsessing instead of investigating was making for one boring ass mystery. Lets bring the other suspects back into this. While I don't think Marlena shot Stefano, she sure as hell is capable of it.

Nicole is back to her old bitch self I see. Well thank god for that, now I can stop being annoyed by her victim mentallity and go back to loving to hate her. Using her baby to put EJ in jail, actually both her babies including the poor deceased one, is cold. I'm glad EJ remembers how she screwed him over with the last baby and isnt buying her BS. I wouldn't deny him feeling his child kick, but I still think there's a good chance that either she'll lose this baby so TomSel can write her a clean slate with Eric. Or, it will turn out to be Brady's so they can throw that into a Brady/Nicole/Eric triangle.
But that would mean giving Marlena back her layered, complex personality... can't have that. Marlena is good, she always has been. But being good doesn't mean you don't have flaws, and I wish this show would get that. Have Marlena become prime suspect, someone watches her every move (we think it's the cops, doesn't have to be). But I forget, she's not Sami, so no focus for Marlena.

I love how one minute Ejole can be mad at each other and scheme against the other and then when one is hurting, like EJ over Lexi, or when Nicole fainted, they both are right there showing how much they really love each other. These two kids are just what good soap couples are made of: Never boring, have the best fights, have the best make-ups, have the best love scenes, and always trying to get the best of the other in some way. But in the end, when I think they are really hating each other, they do something to keep the other around. It's a happy day.

That's one of the problems with this show- the actors that can play more then one-note are left to say the same lines, or are supporting players to far inept actors who's stories we've seen played like a broken record.

Maybe Rafe (since he tends to find stuff/ is a cop with resources at SPD) finds out something about Marlena's whereabouts on the night Stefano's shot but keeps it to himself and tells John who in turn keeps that information from Marlena. John struggles as it makes more and more sense in his head that Marlena could have shot Stefano. The more he keeps digging to exonerate her, the more guilty she becomes.

Yeah, I don't buy any of the speculation about added/edited scenes. The overall storylines are playing out the same as they have been for awhile and from the upcoming spoilers, it doesn't look like any dramatic direction shifts are happening before the Olympics cliffhanger. Days is way too cheap to invest in re-writes unless a current scene severely impacts a future storyline direction. And clearly they are not changing direction with Ejole anytime soon since Nicole tries to get EJ thrown into jail in the next scene.

Now, I'm sure we will start to see some tweaks in the coming weeks, but I think those edits/add-ons will be necessary because of characters departing in July (Caustin) and to set up for the cliffhanger and TomSell's post-Olympics stories. Basically, unless its a big direction change like a new storyline or characters departing, I doubt Days will waste the money on re-writes.
