Remember when they had Sami show up to pay her respects to Alice just before she died...accompanied by EJ, of all people? Yeah...that wasn't awkward. :lol:
They had Rafe bringing Alice leftovers, too. Apparently, she was keeping in touch with everybody. :tounge: need a boost, pull Alice out........ :lol: We've heard the people at Days watch the board - sometime around October, we'll probably find out Alice shared some sage relationship advice with Rafe when he dropped by with that soup.

I meant onscreen. There is nothing wrong with having characters talk offscreen if they can't be on camera. It's not surprising Alice liked Lumi. Who else would she go for?
we had Alice's memory used for the EJ/Sami/Rafe triangle in 2010......its NOT special to LUMI, so the answer seems to be Sami's flavor of the month :drunka:
That scene wasn't used to pimp any couple, it was more for Sami than anything else. Isnt that the scene where she tells her that she will find love someday? Sami was in her teens? If im not mistaken its the same scene she told sami to let austin be happy with carrie. A week after that scene Rafe was back and a few weeks after she was all over kissing him in the locker room, the triangle was over at that point. I think the OP was combining two scenes, but yes...both of them were more about Sami and not really about either couple. Alice tells her in the flashback that she'll find love some day, and Sami says (in present day) that she did but blew it. The other scene is with Julie and it's all about empowering Sami to do things on her own. At the time, the day ahead got taken out of context and people said it was about Safe. It wasn't.

All of us don't have ships...
Hmpft. Some of us make boards for our ships. Mine is more like a cruise line.

Lucas's big huge bad thing that he over hears from Will is him ordering a new car? OMG The horror!
Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
If u read the day ahead you'll see he's not concerned about the car but the way Will is barking orders like EJ.
I read the day ahead thanks. Still not seeing the horror. Will ordering a new car and telling the guy that he's EJ's right hand (truth), telling the guy he doesn't need to bother EJ with it (probably truth since EJ has other issues than Will's car at the moment). It's not like Will was ordering a hit and covering it up.
I think it's a tone thing - Lucas's alerts going up b/c he feel Will is parroting EJ (sounding like EJ's ventriloquist I think is what is written in the day ahead). It's not so much about what Will says, his ordering a car, saying he is EJ's right-hand man, etc. Anyway, we can't know how Will sounds until we see the scenes I guess - but that's what seems to concern Lucas, plus the fact that Will appears to be so assured that EJ won't double-cross him, makes Lucas worry Will has done something new to "guarantee" such things, and I think it worries Lucas to see Will feeling so sure about something where EJ is involved. Based on what I saw today, Will probably does the whole phone conversation with a smile and grin on his face. Not very EJ.
Lucas is going to look like an idiot for huffing and puffing at Will's sinister ordering a new car while grinning. :lol:

I love EJill, especially since the power balance is more, well, balanced, but darn it if they aren't on more than any other couple. Seriously, let's not give us too much of a good thing.
Although, I do like the idea of Will having his car, apartment and other toys. For some reason, the idea of him having all that stuff appeals to me and explains why he enjoys his job so much - even though a big part of it is the rush of being shady. But I do wish the show had the budget to show his badass car and apartment and show him enjoying all the stuff. But I doubt we'll ever see Will's apartment for reasons other than budget (you can't show a gay with a bedroom that might imply they - ahem - sleep.)
I think Will can't ever go back to being the sweet Will we saw last summer, but I do want to see him around Sonny and his siblings and Marlena - the people who bring out the less smirky, less shady side to him. Ideally, I do want him to be one step ahead of everyone in town and a loose canon.
Oh, and I wish they could use the brand name of whatever Will now drives. But I guess Fisker or Bugati probably don't need the product placement.

Even then Will's tone/Lucas's reaction/the reasonableness of it all, etc. will prob be up for interpretation anyway.

Love the PBP and the few scenes I've seen.
I generally enjoy Will and EJ, but I don't get the grinning thing CM is doing. I really don't. Is he having fun? Does he think EJ is funny? What are we supposed to be getting here. Otherwise, I think the dynamic is novel and interesting.
Poor Lucas. :fp2: Look, dude, if you tell a girl you love her and she doesn't respond in kind, she's probably not that into you. If you keep seeing your girl with her ex, and that ex is the same ex who she cheated on with that broke up her last marriage, she's probably not that into you. I really dig the dynamic between Sami and Lucas, so I'm happy the writers appear to be writing a just friends story. But I hope we can get there sooner rather than later; I'd rather not have Lucas totally humiliated in the process.
I have zero issue with Lucas being concerned about Will's involvement with EJ. That rings true to his character.
I have found myself enjoying the Dancole scenes immensely, much to my surprise. I do think, though, that Ari can sell almost anything.
Can we please, please stop making the Salem PD look like such a bunch of doofuses? Please? We need some good guys to root for, and to foil the bad guys. Roman and Rafe have been made to look like total amateurs for months now (longer?). Make it stop!
I am so digging Sami and EJ on screen together. They are so special together and I'm happy to see their chemistry being utilized. They are really interesting and, IMO, a very unusual (and entertaining!) soap couple.

its more like they are making it up as they go along......like all of Sami's memories that had NOTHING to do with Lucas :lol:
Well you could argue that If we hadn't seen Alice care, but we saw it And Six to answer your question, she was prolumi as far as 2007 or 2006, well after Stan. Now I know that Frances was only seen about twice a year toward the end and never seen again after Xmas of 2007
this particular point is about Alice caring for Sami because of Lucas and in this very eppy where Alice giving the bracelet to Lucas is being heralded we have Sami having memories of Alice caring for her BEFORE Lucas.......in essense making the first statement erroneous at best! True. They grew apart in later years, but Alice was Sami's grandmother, before she was Lucas'. IIRC, Marlena and the kids even lived with the Hortons when the twins were babies.

If Lucas wants to suddenly parent Will, perhaps doing something other than pushing him towards EJ would make more sense. Instead of having the same conversation about EJ in every scene, that they even point out on screen.

She was Grandma Alice, though. That all disappeared when Sami was SORASed. I find it very hard to believe that one Alice's dying wishes was for Sami to have a bracelet of hers.

Lexie stopped hating Sami a LONG time ago.....there is no need to apply past conditions to what her present was! secondly there is no way for you to accurately say that Lexie never thought Sami would make EJ happy......she has talked Sami up in the past when she realized just how happy EJ was and based on the written words of the show and not fans, she thought they would be happier than ever with each other! :cheer:
we saw ej said she said we never saw on screen lexie saying she want ej to be sami while we did saw alice on screen pro lumi and want lucas to be with sami in past
if one off screen shipping is accepted as is, then all off screen shipping is going to be......picking and choosing based on what works for the ship has very little credence. THIS. Since we didn't seeeeeeeeee Alice say these words, I think they should be disregarded like Lexie's were. Who cares if it makes sense? We didn't see it and she's dead. LOL.

Just wanting put out there, that I think Sami and Lucas are, will, should always be more than just friends...the idea of a just friends story is frankly irritating. But I will take that for now if the alternative is the "triangle" I currently see forming.
The Sami/EJ scenes don't sound that special to me, in all honesty. I don't think it would take a mind reader to notice something was wrong with EJ, so that doesn't melt my heart or anything. It's nice that she offers to listen, but she has been doing that since I can remember for the last few months. Nothing very unexpected about it.
The whole storyline is nothing very unexpected, I guess. So I will lap up what I can get, and groan as I see the rest play out as expected. Wonder if we can start some kind of pool to see what will happen when. Or devise some kind of drinking game out of the whole thing. Being hammered might be the only way to get through some of these scenes.
Ok - got that off my shippy chest.

Right, but Lexie's words were also enjoyed by those who wanted to enjoy it, so that's all I am going to do, knowing full well no one's fate is now sealed or anything.

I remember Marlena and Belle living with Alice but never Marlena and the twins. But you are making me question my memory so I hope someone remembers when Marlena lived with Alice.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
this particular point is about Alice caring for Sami because of Lucas and in this very eppy where Alice giving the bracelet to Lucas is being heralded we have Sami having memories of Alice caring for her BEFORE Lucas.......in essense making the first statement erroneous at best!
True. They grew apart in later years, but Alice was Sami's grandmother, before she was Lucas'. IIRC, Marlena and the kids even lived with the Hortons when the twins were babies.
I don't remember them living with Alice...Marlena and Belle lived there briefly. She was Grandma Alice, though. That all disappeared when Sami was SORASed. I find it very hard to believe that one Alice's dying wishes was for Sami to have a bracelet of hers. I am sorry I didn't get this far before I posted this exact same thing.

So who is setting up EJ? Reading the day ahead, it seems they're trying to make Rafe seem like the guilty one, but I think it's Roman!
