Clearly Nicole doesn't accept EJ just as he is or she wouldn't be going all over town telling everyone who will listen that she does not want her baby raised as a DiMera. :shrug:
She said the opposite at Stefano's funeral though. When was she was alone with him she said she wanted her baby to be like Stefano and EJ. Nicole is attracted to the real EJ while the same EJ repulses Sami.

I think the writing will begin to make sense again once Tomlin takes fully over. His stories at least had a beginning a middle and an end. I would be interested to see what he can do with Lumi. I believe his writing should start in august when Bryan said the Lumi scenes start. Then I heard we have more Lumi scenes coming in around Oct. That should definetly be Tomlin's work by then. I just hope we get Ejole, after all, they can not escape the fact she is having his baby. Tomlin will have to deal with that. I want Nicole to have a happy healthy baby for Ej. I hope he is their for the birth and takes good care of his wife and child, which he should be doing. Running after Sami is what cost him Nicole, I truly hope that Tomlin fixes that. Also someone suggested that Ej might be setting Sami up, setting her up to break up with Lucas like she cost him Nicole. Now that would be good to watch!
Tomlin's work is already onscreen and full takeover is next week. You don't have to wait until October, it is now. If that's how it worked then half of MarDar's work would have been Tomlin. There's some conflicting reports about when Tomlin's stuff truly starts.

Vicious circle.

I remember that speech of her's and all it did was further confuse me as to her real motives for this whole mess of a story. Is it possible that it was edited in because at the time she wanted nothing of EJ anywhere near her child and then suddenly she comes in and confesses to what she believed was the corpse of her father in law that EJ still owns a part of her heart that she is proud he is the daddy.
she may have been honest with herself for the first time in months......but every time she is with either rafe or Daniel she reverts to the "i hate ej" mode.

(No worries...Nicole's schemes are always better, the baby can take after her!)

Ok, then the script is wrong I guess. The script credits Marlene and Darrell with no mention of Gary or Chris. Scripts in August do list Gary & Chris. Have to wait until the credits run tomorrow in Canada. I'll check with Pat and ask her who is credited as the writers for tomorrow's Canadian episode (Monday's 7/23 US episode).

She said the opposite at Stefano's funeral though. When was she was alone with him she said she wanted her baby to be like Stefano and EJ. But her actions show something entirely different. I realize at the root it's based on the fact that she's being vindictive because she's pissed that EJ slept with Sami but regardless, she's clearly not supportive of EJ or who he is.

I was pretty sure the cliffhanger was written by MarDar with some edits by TomSell. Now I'm just feeling confused.

Well, it could be that these are MarDars outlines of their story and TomSell wrote some of it. I would bet on Jason's info, then SOD. SOD doesnt have a good track record of being accurate.

......And she is still sleeping with Lucas without batting an eye lash.
Ej is seriously hot, it shouldn't be so hard for him to get her to drop her knickers for him if he really wanted her to.

No, the script could still be right also.
It's all GT's writing SOD says starts the 24th, but if it's MarDar's storyboards that he's they're using then they have to give them the credit also.

I agree Liz, there's nothing of substance when pairing Ej with Sami. They have absolutely nothing in common except that they are messed up individuals. she's a brady, he's a Dimera, this sounds positively great on paper but it it has floundered time and time again because it is always expected of EJ to lose his balls every time he's in Sami's vicinity. She will never allow him to he himself....NEVER! And like a pussy he should never be he lets her.....I am sorry I will never buy this nonsense. I like evil, and deliciously bad EJ. He is more appealing than this guy on screen right now (unless he's playing her). It's like he wants her to take him home to meet the family because he's being a good little boy....nuh uh, not on my watch!
Nicole gave him the freedom he has longed for even with Stefano who still pulled his strings. Nicole has always been and will always be the perfect woman for him. She is hardly his second choice considering that he always ends up with her over his scamanther. He even said they were in a relationship for the better part of three years during the snow storm. The only thing between him and sami is their kids and nothing else, an occasional screw once very two years doth not a relationship make, they are barely even f*ck buddies by today's standards. They are more adversaries then anything else. Taylor fared better in the months of their scarfmance than the six to seven years with these two. MarDar were smoking some serious shit if they thought I would accept what they no doubt were spoon feeding me, ej and sami are a shit pair plain and simple. I have a six year history to prove it.
I'd rather EJ be alone and be in character than be the ball-less eunuch purse holder to samanther jean brady. The fact that she's still sleeping with Lucas claiming to love him and screeching to Carrie about her huzband is not helping the ej/sami cause with this viewer, nothing will ever convince me honestly speaking.
So where do we go after the break....who knows. I certainly hope they sever all ties (romantic and otherwise) between ej and sami. Too reaching of me I know but I can't settle for less, not any more.
According to EJ in today's show there is a pull between he and Sami that has always been there and they can't deny it. It's unexplainable and defies reason or logic - but it's there. Personally, I really liked that description. Sometimes the heart simply wants what it wants - and despite everything, that's what seemingly draws them back together time and again. No matter what other relationships they find themselves in - they never quite get the other out of their system. I like the fact that these days Sami isn't trying to change EJ or insist he be someone he's not. If anything, she's the one that keeps pointing out that they are 'bad together' because they are both selfish and will run over anyone that gets in their way. We know from spoilers that she's going to be the one to try to help prove his innocence, bail him out, help him attempt to run...and I love that we're finally seeing Sami's devious side coming out to work with EJ instead of against him. That's the EJami I've always wanted to see written.
This is basically Lumi's passion speech but Lucas and Sami had the history and the actual bond to pull it off. No rewriting and throwing characters under the bus needed. I don't know how this is Sami's devious side. I've seen Sami be devious. I've loved her being devious. This is not it. Maybe so but I never seen passion with Lumi, not if they are kissing like hungry sharks.
With Ejami, they can just look at each other and the rooms goes on fire.
I guess different strokes, different folks.

Clearly Nicole doesn't accept EJ just as he is or she wouldn't be going all over town telling everyone who will listen that she does not want her baby raised as a DiMera. :shrug:
She said the opposite at Stefano's funeral though. When was she was alone with him she said she wanted her baby to be like Stefano and EJ.
Nicole is attracted to the real EJ while the same EJ repulses Sami. Oh, yeah, Sami really looks repulsed on today's show and in the DA clips for tomorrow. :P
She knows EJ has blackmailed Will and he's suspected of killing Stephano, but she is all about helping him anyway. Repulsion looks pretty accepting on her.

We shall see. The WGA (Writers Guild of America) is very picky on making sure that the correct writers are credited in each episode. So, the credits will be the ultimate determination of who the official writers were for the episodes next week. Maybe it will be the "transition credits" where it says:
Written by: Marlene McPherson Darrell Ray Thomas Jr. Gary Tomlin Christopher Whitesell
They've had those transition weeks sometimes in the past.
That even works out perfectly...they's all be listed in alphabetical order if that's the case!
