That was pretty damn good.
Mel and Co. were actually not so bad. That's a huge upgrade from shitastic. Big. HUGE.

ITA with Soc about Victor/Maggie/Dan/Nicole. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be but I still enjoyed it. Even though I know Dancole probably won't last, it was nice to see Dan defend Nicole. What can I say? I like them. :wub:

But my :cart: goes to Sami Gene, EJ and Will. There was just so much awesomeness my face hurts from smiling after reading it. I love that she defends EJ to Roman, even though he had legitimate claims about EJ. I love how she supports EJ when he is feeling so alone after losing everyone. Will hacking into the police website! LOVE. IT! And Sami ready to go on the run with EJ (at least to help him get to the jet): YASSSS!! Sami just might be getting her Ride Or Die Badge from me. :rockon:

You'd think he and Sami were living together he was so casual about it.

As much as I love the sight of EJ tucking in those jeans, this was my favorite part of the dialogue
Quote:
 
you are Ej dimera, for gods sake
you are the person who has done anything and said anything and manipulated to get what he wants
so do it now
the only you can prove you are innocent is if you are not in jail
Ej you are not alone
ok
we are going to help you
Ej says why are you doing this ?
she says i believe in you


:wub: :wub: :wub:

"fruit flies have a longer relationships than you do"

Not up to your usual standards Victor but I will take whatever crumbs you throw out.

Yeah, I was really hoping for some of those classic Victor zingers. Guess the poor guy was off his game, worried about Melanie and all. Oh well, maybe next time.
Yea, it was definitely no "booze soaked, money-grubbing, baby-swapping whore" :( . IIRC, this isn't the first time Victor has referenced Medea. It's still unbelievable that he watches those movies. Count me with everyone else who was expecting more of a showdown with danicole/magstor. At least we did get to see them, though. Maggie really should have been all over the Melanie storyline. It's very weird that they were made into family, only to sever that connection. It was nice to have Dan defending Nicole, but I wish she'd been able to get in some smart remarks of her own.

EJ, Sami and Will working together has been great. It reminds me of a light GH story. If we could only get them scheming for the wrong reasons it would be perfect. Sami's saying things to EJ in this episode that should have been said years ago.

I'll miss Andrew. He'll always have a place in my heart after chaining Gabi up underground during an explosion. Of course she'll make it out alive, but good on him for doing his part.

Gone, But Not Forgotten!

I will concede that Sami has been looking good this week and I am enjoying the Ejami and Ejamill scenes.

The SLs leading up to the "big cliffhanger" should have started earlier with more build. I am not pleased that everything has been so rushed into one day. TPTB could have made more out of the build up etc, I just know that I am going to be disappointed.

Not the slighted bit interested in Gabi and Mel and Andrew.... blow them up already, all three of them!

Dan and Nicole- fence sitting on this one. Enjoyed snarky Vic, but really Daniel is no saint. Love the mention of Dan's lengthy list of women he's been with. Not a fan of Vic pimping Jennifer-- she is not the perfect one, just one that Vic hasn't slept with. Vic is not a fan of Jack. I am completely grossed out over this. Poor Nicole being taken down a few notches is not warranted, Daniel is a big boy and his pervious female choices have been no better. Nicole being there for Daniel and using sex is pretty much what it is, sex and comfort and soothing Daniel's pain of being alone... IMO it spells out that he is definitely not over Jen-Jen. Dicole are using each other, they are obviously not going to be a long term couple.

Sami's "I believe in you" line to EJ, is one Jennifer used with Jack way back when.

TomSell are dialogue stealers-- totaly not appropriate for Ejami here, any other choice words are okay, just not these.

Die hard fans would know the difference, newbies not so much. I feel insulted, sorry, I just can't sugar coat this.

A lot of people say those words not just JnJ though. I have. If it was over the top, they were trying to have her say something other than, for the kids. I think they're just trying to ramp up the emotional stakes going into Friday. Was it a perfect attempt? Maybe not, but this is Days.

:iagree:

The Melanie kidnapping stuff should be entertaining. I love that Brady is involved in helping Melanie too!

The MAGIC/DACOLE stuff sounds good and I am also enjoying the DACOLE romance! :wub:

Obviously the EJ, Sami, & Will scenes are flipping fantastic! THIS is exactly the side of Sami and Will that I love to see- no hesitation at all to do some shady stuff to get what they want. And right now- they both want to help EJ!!! :cheer:
LOVE seeing the grey side of Sami & Will! Still hoping to see Team EJAMILL work together to fight for DiMera Enterprises or even start their own empire! That would be so fun to watch!

I especially LOVE the EJAMI scenes! So great to see Sami tell EJ that she believes in EJ and wants to be there for him! :whooohooo: GO EJAMI!!!

And seeing EJ zip up his jeans.... :licklips:

Oh see, I thought the "I believe in you" was totally appropriate. To me it says "I don't always believe you, because you are just like me, but I believe IN you." I liked it.

Oh, the other thing I wanted to comment on and forgot about was how well EJ knows Sami. He knew immediately where she got his bail. He didn't assume anything bad of her like Lucas assumed hse would use the kids' college funds. I just love the silent connection they have.
There were a lot more subtle like that in there that were better written than the corny "I believe in you." Maybe the writers don't have confidence that some of the audience are able to pick up on these subtlties that EJami are currently the root for couple, so they wanted to make it clear.

I guess this is tango-2012, but "I believe in you" and "I don't deserve you" are such generic statements that I can't consider this a case of recycling. They must have been used countless times on this show.

I don't read the DAs for any of the characters besides EJ and Sami (show is too boring if I spoil myself), but I did watch the EJamill scenes and all I can say is #EJami, FTW!

Sami is white? Sami, who is aiding and abetting a felon? Sami, who is encouraging her young adult son to hack into a secure police network and commit a felony? Sami is doing what is right, but she's doing it in a way the "good" guys wouldn't go about doing it, which is what makes her gray.

This is the Sami I remember loving, and when she said that to Roman at the police station, my heart skipped a beat. Stepford Sami is a snooze, but Black Sheep Sami is fantastic, and always has been.

I can't wait to see Sami's response when EJ said, "are you sure you want to come with me?" I want her to make it clear to EJ that she will do anything it takes! Then he can return the favor by saving her! :wub: :cheer: :cheer:

I think I'm going to pretend Sami's travails don't exist and watch the REST of the cast and characters for whatever time they have on these episodes. I'll even pretend Nicole is her old self and watch for the sake of watching her. the whole explosion thing sounds intriguing, and Julie and Doug will be back!

Cannot wait to see when Johnny, Sydney and Will meet up with the again, this is going to be so darn good. EJ with HIS FAMILY. :wub:
