He didn't ask her to chose till the end of the convo...then he left... The other question was what was she doing there and why and she answered it, even brought up death row and the framing to justify why she felt she needed to help EJ clear his name.

I just can't ever see Sami choosing one guy to be with. She likes to have EJ and Lucus hanging on as she goes back and forth. And she has never wanted EJ enough to choose him to be with over anyone. She likes to sleep with him, but there has never been anything else with EJ for her.


i think it is quite obvious that is exactly what she is doing now finally: she is choosing ej over anyone else including lucas and her family (the bradys). i could not be any happier about it.
No she isnt choosing anyone. Just because she helps him doesn't mean she chooses him as her lover or anything. She helped him with the immigration thing in 2008, but she didn't choose him as her lover.
Sami helping EJ with the immigration thing while Lucas is MIA and Sami with everything to lose refusing to let EJ suffer are two totally different things IMO.

Lucas barks stay away from EJ and Sami shows him she will do anything but!..........its only a matter of time before she verbalizes what her actions are saying JMO!

This must be what GT was talking about when he referred to Wilson as The Hardy Boys. They might as well be brothers, right?

Sonny, darling, did you not notice how hot Brian was the other week? I gurantee you he won't make you dig through the trash or sit around trying to save the ass of his hot, straight boss. I want to ship Wilson, too, but at this point you can do way better.
Is that supposed to be Wilson in your avi? It rocks!

I still have hope. The couple who roots through trash together, stays together!
Yes, it's Wilson in my avi! And I have hope, too. And honestly, Freddie Smith is doing a great job with what little they give him. I'm getting the feeling that even Sonny knows he's an idiot for being in love with Will, but the heart wants what it wants.

If the writers decide to make use of just how into Will Sonny seems to be as part of a plotline, I could very much be on board.

and she stood aganist her family for ej on 2010 when she chose to marry ej but it was only she could not have rafe at the time

If Ejami is being written as the rooting couple, I am certainly not rooting for them. I am just waiting, hoping for whatever show they are previewing to get on the road already (or for it to die in the water, either way), for Lucas to save himself from this nonsense and move onto another storyline. And then once that's all leveled out, I can anticipate and watch for the tides to change again. So I am just waiting out the worst of the storm right now - I expect to be in misery for awhile, but that's ok. Nothing new. But I can see from miles away what's happening here, and the getting there is the worst of it. I just want to put a band-aid and move on, until the next sea change. I am a realist, but I ain't giving up hope for down the road.

OMG - Sami NEVER answered Lucas' question! That says it all! She can't choose!!!!
He left before she even got a chance to answer though, he told her to make a choice and let him
Know later, then he left.
She had enough chance to answer if she wanted to. He asked her at the very beginning of their conversation and all she could talk about was who was doing EJ wrong. Lucas pretty much got his answer!
He didn't ask her to chose till the end of the convo...then he left... The other question was what was she doing there and why and she answered it, even brought up death row and the framing to justify why she felt she needed to help EJ clear his name.
Something tells me Lucas is going to get the answer to his question loud and clear this week. Just like he said, it's all right there in Sami's actions. ;)

I have said over and over again that the writers need to make it clear who the rooting couple is in order for the audience to care and feel invested. I feel that they are finally doing so. IMO They are finally making clear that, at least for now, Ejami is the rooting couple. It makes such a difference!
They're not doing anything different than what they've done with Safe, Lumi, Ejole, etc at various times. I think it's a little late for them to truly establish a rooting couple out of these characters. Everyone's been split for too long.

The problem with Sami in a coma then waking with amnesia - it's BORING. It's been there done that how many times? It's going to be pretty clear from next week's spoilers that Sami supports EJ. OK, fine, go with that.

Have Lucas walk out on Sami and help John fight BOTH EJ and Sami for control of DiMera Enterprise. It will be a real SL involving more than just three characters. They can also throw in that Kate was still married to Stefano at the time of his death to add excitement. This has a LOT more potential than another lumi/ejami triangle ever could.
I said the Sami in a coma with amnesia thing sounds predictable and frustrating more than anything else, b/c I can so clearly see what writers might do with that easy route, and b/c it's been done. I was just saying I could see possibility for my couple - I am grasping at straws here, it's all I got left - that is all. But I don't want to go for any more rounds of triangles with any of Sami's men, not really. so your s/line idea sounds better of course. Would pit Sami and Lucas as enemies again, and I can see possibilities for a renewed dynamic that could then evolve again there. ;) I am not going to stop hoping or rooting for them.

Seriously, there are too many other directions to go after the CH and too many stories to wrap up to have Sami in a coma or amnesiac or dead or any of the other wishful thinking options that keep getting spun. EJ's trumped up murder charge, Gabi's schemes, Jack's death/departure, Ian's wrap up - the list goes on and on. Prepare for Sami to be wide awake with her memories intact. There are new stories to tell, and TS is moving on.

I wouldn't mind an amnesia storyline for Sami. Starting from a clean slate that would hopefully lead to the man she really wants.

No. I've already stopped, lol. But yes. Everyone will find out when we get more information and when it airs. Duh. But your wishful thinking is no different than everyone else's. They've given us no information. Everyone is allowed to speculate.

Why should we prepare for anything that isn't certain. Your spec of her waking up with memories intact isn't any more valid than mine. We don't even have spoilers yet that even hint at anything with Sami and what we do know is that she apparently falls to her death.

Well Sami does not fall to her death, I'll put a year's salary on that being wishful thinking and not reality. I'm sure they will make us think that but after the olympics we will see eJ do some heroic act to save her life since its obvious they are going in that direction. I'm sure a few characters will die but unless you are spoiler free , they won't be a big surprise to most of us. The thing I found strange is that Celeste is not mentioned as being at the memorial fundraiser thrown on behalf of her daughter..yet cameron is there....what did she have a bad hair day?

Goodness I am just speculating, and fully admitting wishful thinking b/c my couple is being trashed right now. That's all. I even said I was grasping for straws. I am no rose-colored-glasses delusionist (is that a word? it should be if not). I don't have to prepare for anything - although I am expecting the worst. It's a possibility as much as anything. Not the best, as I also admitted. There is something to the clean-slate aspect that sort of sounds appealing, but as I said from the first, that kind of storyline would be utterly predictable and I would roll my eyes at it. There are ways I could write it to favor a storyline direction I might like, but it's just talk. I am not betting on it or taking it seriously. I am just talking out loud here, and trying to find hope where now there is just darkness, soap-opera wise.

I think they're making it clear that Ejami is the rooting couple for NOW. Who knows how long they will be written that way. (I personally hope for a long time). The difference that I'm seeing (and I really hope I continue to see) is less of the confusing crumb-throwing that has been the hallmark of the Sami-centered pairings for years.

I think if people step back and take into account all the things that Days has to do to turn this ship around, then other options besides the ones that keep getting repeated here become apparent. I'm not invested in wishful thinking. And I do watch the show.

What you posted was as much wishful thinking as what others are posting. There are a billion options to what could happen because we don't know. Any prediction is wishful thinking because we don't have any information. The last time TomSell took over, they ignored everything that happened right before they started. We're told that won't happen this time, but I really have a hard time believing it because I don't trust them.
