The comment to Ari was asking for hope for Ejole. She said to keep the faith. Usually that does mean, better times are ahead. I think obviously there are some Ejole scenes ahead...they are having a baby together. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see EJ deliver the baby! I guess we wait and see.
That would be very John & Marlena of them (except that Sami was the reason they didn't know Belle was theirs). And we all know how J&M ended up ;) So EJ, please do deliver your baby.

Greg Vaughan just tweeted this:

‏@greg_vaughanTo ALL my beloved friends' that have stood beside me! I've traveled a path I love & feel fortunate to join & become apart of the cast #DOOL
Now just confirm that you're playing Eric Brady, cutie patootie.

Maybe he will come back with Eileen Davidson playing Sister Mary Moira and it will be revealed that SMM was really always Eric Brady in drag all along. Don't want to overwork ED again with these silly characters.

My real guess is that he will indeed be Eric Brady and a priest. Maybe Eric had a serious accident and looks totally different like Tommy Horton back in the day. Which is why he says be patient with the reveal. If done write that could be great and a nod to the history of the show rather than a blatant copy of 90s storylines. If you're going to copy shit go all the way back. I could respect that. It would also explain the jarring difference between Jensen Ackles and Greg Vaughan, but that isn't really necessary. Jensen was great, but its not like his portrayal was iconic. A lot of people probably don't even know an Eric Brady exists.
Hope they don't plan to dumb Marlena down enough for that. She's recognize her own son. Esp since she's been the only one who's seen him the last 10 years.

Not sure how I would feel if Eric came back as a priest due to GV's religious beliefs.... So Eric Brady will be in Salem, and a total religious goodie goodie? No sex, no real love interest, no future Eric Brady baby 2013, no juicy scandalous soapy story? Just going around telling people to be better a better person and to pray a lot? He is way to hot to not be naked in a juicy love scene lol

I bet he's a priest because something has happened to him. Maybe he thinks he did something bad...then he finds out it wasnt his fault and leaves the priesthood. He's no going to stay a priest.

I have no idea. I just heard the rumors that he's become very religious in real life, etc, and its been incorporated into the character. I have zero idea if its true. I was just saying I didnt like the idea of Eric being a priest, as some were speculating may happen

Well..John was a priest for a while (even though it turned out he was a thief, but we didn't know that at the time.) I know that Marlena was possessed and the devil planted the memories in John's mind, but he and Marlena got a little down and dirty several times. Hehe...

I shouldn't even need to say this, but she didn't recognize that John wasn't really Roman. And she believes that windbag Josh Taylor is Roman. So...lets just question her judgment a little bit. And I'm going to have to say if Alice and Tom Horton can have doubts I'm sure Marlena will survive not knowing right away. Also there's always a person that believes it like Alice with Hope when she was Gina. Marlena could be that person. Roman, Sami, etc. could be like hellllll no. Anyway, this probably won't happen. He will just show up as Eric.

Soap holy men are almost never that holy, given that it doesn't lead to much story if they stand around being holy. But there have been some amazing examples of corrupt holy men like Mitch Lawrence. And how could we forget Mason's involvement with Lily Light's cult on Santa Barbara.

But the phrasing "holy man" almost strikes me like Eric became a Buddhist, which wouldn't limit story quite so much.

But we don't even know if he's playing Eric. I wouldn't object to him playing Peter Blake, giving Kristen someone to scheme with.

The story was that RoJohn had had a ton of plastic surgery AND his memories removed, so that goes. And we're supposed to believe this is how Roman Brady has always looked (thus the fake re-created flashbacks of Winston and Marlena). It's stupid, but sadly true. That's different from Eric coming back, having changed his appearance a little bit and his mother, who has been to see him like twice a year during this period, not knowing who he is. Eric's her son. Didn't they even mention J&M video chatting with him not long ago (Christmas?)? In the meantime he's gotten out, gotten plastic surgery, recovered and joined the priesthood?

It'd be a lot better (if they have to make him one) if Eric just came back, he's a priest and Marlena feels strangely about it because she doesn't believe he did it because he really wanted to (which I seriously don't see Eric Brady doing). Could bring some conflict for John & Marlena because of his past, and he starts to feel a little protective and wants to understand Eric, while Marlena wants to know what happened. Also some lines throw that reference the Possession time without really mentioning it could be done (like John saying "Just because you're a priest doesn't mean you always resist temptation when you find it" - like John almost having sex with Marlena several times and most definitely wanting to do so).

I hope you're right and he'll just show up as Eric. Sometimes simple is better. He had a secret last time. I'd much rather have Eric and Nicole become close friends (they've both made mistakes and make amends for trickery/cheating on Greta/guilt about it) and have Eric be the supportive figure in the last part of her pregnancy (in other words, goodbye Tanny and GooeyEyes!).

But yay for Greg Vaughn! I really, really hope he is Eric Brady. He and Ari Zucker would look GORGEOUS together.

But how about Julia and the priest on Santa Barbara (Father Michael?) or the priest that had a crush on Hope 1984 or 1985-ish? I'm a sucker for those stories, although they aren't as believable as they used to be in the modern world.

Maybe he won't be a priest, as not to limit his storyline potential. He could be a Protestant pastor or minister, even though the Brady's are Catholic. He could have found his own way.

OR it could be really soapy and he has to fight against the temptation that is Nicole! :rockon:

I just pray that he's really Eric so that he's not resisting Sami's temptation.

Is Eric having become a priest based on insider info? Hopefully Days isn't going to waste Eric on Possession-type storyline with Kristen, especially with such a limited budget. :blink:

I am in love with this statement.

Like I could marry it, if I wasn't already in a fantasy relationship with Ejamandbread's EJ gif.

I don't hold that against her because there was no reason for her realize John wasn't Roman because he truly was Roman at that time. He wasn't pretending to be Roman, he was Roman. The writers didn't change his identity until Wayne decided to come back, had that not happened Drake would still be Roman today.

And as much as we all hate it, JT is in the role of Roman. I don't think that will ever change :(
