Are you surprised? He's had no storyline since Tomlin came back, they've been using him as a prop.

It's not a deal breaker it's just the way they started. Playing Sami. And you know when they're going with a real couple the other one isn't busy setting object of their affection up. Once Nicole started scheming with Daniel, you knew they were over. And I'm sure Kristen and EJ will by playing Sami and that's does mean they arent' going to end up being the real couple a great many of their fans want. I'm just saying it's not going to be anything we haven't seen before with EJ and Sami and some of their fans don't care, but a lot them do want to see something different for them.
I have no doubt they won't find a way to please everyone - even within the same fan base. My personal preference would be to see EJami get embroiled in a hot, steamy affair that shows them making frequent use of that big old desk on EJ's new office set and features lots of nearly nekkid EJ. And frankly, they don't even need to declare themselves a 'couple' for that to happen. In fact, I might prefer it if they didn't. :$

So you basically want to see what Ejole had their last go around with ejami minus the I love yous?
Not at all. What EJole had the last go round was schmoopy goop accentuated with lots of little tickle fights and all tied up with a big wad of grief sex secret hanging over their heads.

If I can't get Sami actively pursuing EJ (with EJ putting up a bit of resistance) I'll take them not being able to keep their hands off each other - but not being all that happy about it.

What we'll likely see is EJ pursuing Sami - talking about the undeniable 'thing' between them and wearing her down with close but not quite kisses and sappy EJami family moments with the kids. And while I'll lap that up, too - it's not really the version of EJami I'd be thrilled to see.

But hey - I'll take what I get and probably like it while I have it. Anything to add some variety to banners and avatars is a plus in my book. :shrug:

Maybe they're saving him for Chloe. We know he'll have some scenes with Kristen, but I hope it's nothing more than some pleasant banter and nothing romantic (on his part, anyway). They need to slow down all these insta-romances with Brady, because none of them have worked so far. Plus, if Parker's paternity is changed and Daniel is his father, I'm sure Daniel will be thrilled to have Brady help raise his son with Chloe. Since her stint is temporary (although I hope it's not), maybe she'll leave town with Brady, like she did before.

The only problem is Sami doesn't seem to have a problem turning EJ down sexually. As a matter of fact, she's pretty good at it. If she's so sexually attracted to him then what's stopping her? Her love for Rafe? Knowing if she takes that final step with EJ there'll be no going back to Rafe?

90% of the discussion in this thread is the reason this show is in the toilet, EJ and Sami. I wish a crane would fall on both of them.

We could both come up with all sorts of reasons why we think Sami has been resistant - but the bottom line is it's because the writers have written it that way. It doesn't much matter what we think - if the writers opt to have her start desk dancing with EJ for whatever reason I'll be a happy camper. Whoda ever thunk we'd have had EJami grief sex after the whole shooting him in the head/putting a faux Rafe in her bed? Not me. But the writers wrote it - and that pretty much just goes to show if they want to, they'll find a reason for any change in story direction.

If Sami & EJ go back together, I WILL quit watching DAYS. Hate that Gabi's gonna be pregnant with Will's baby. Sounds like they intend on possibly splitting up Marlena & John too. And Kate already received her divorce papers from Stefano, didn't she?

Which I find sickening. I could think of other characters that viewers could use a break from.

I'm hoping for a Broe story. Of course Chloe & Brady will have scenes together. Hope they lead to something between them! No thank you to Brady & Kristen. Just hope sharing scenes and nothing more!

I'm just happy they mention my girl Nicole as "front-burner". I would laugh and adore it if Nicole and Eric take off as the "IT" couple. Which means it won't happen, but a girl can dream!
IT would happen - and then they would purposely do something to destroy it.

I think she does have a problem turning him down otherwise, 6 yrs on we would not be getting the same back and forth with them. It does not seem to matter much to her what awful things that EJ has done. She still goes back to him, after allowing him to manipulate her, or simply because she feels like it. Like going on the run with him when he did not ask her to. Also, they would have had sex when they went on the run if they were not interrupted. There has been other occasions when Sami has been panting for EJ, and EJ stopped it or they got interrupted and it does not go further but, she certainly looked willing. So, it would not surprise me if she has sex with him this time round, especially that they will be getting closer. No awful thing that EJ has done has made a difference to her wanting him. While because Rafe tells her sister about him not being the father of Nicole's baby and not her, she decides to dump him. Stupid woman!

If they were really going with ejami then they would have started them off honestly and not with Kristen and EJ (once again) playing her. Sami could have had papers she really did need for him to sign, found him grieving for his son and they could have taken it off from there. But what did we get? Kristen setting Sami up and EJ laughing about how Sami fell for it and smirking to Kristen that she still had a long way to go before she actually delivered Sami to him. Yeah, they're on their way to true romance.
Evidently EJ really did need to sign that paperwork - and Sami was responsible for having not followed up and accruing fines and penalties as a result. So the reason for her to have to go see him was valid - Kristen was just savvy enough to find it and use it.

That's not to say that they won't find some other way to manipulate things so it's all guaranteed to blow up in EJ's face down the road - but this most recent scene wasn't anything that I think would be a deal breaker.
:sarcasm: Is that

I completely read that as Kristen had faked up the papers.

What's stopping her? All her little conversations with her family .. the only way Sami will be with EJ (in my mind) is if she has done something that the family disapproves of so she is already persona non grata and is in a position where she doesn't care what they think.

With Bo and Caroline away, and if Kristen manages to lock Roman & Marlena up somewhere maybe they'll have a chance

I didn't get that impression. Judging from the way it went down between Kristen/Sami, EJ's reaction to them and a lack of an obvious moment that pointed to Kristen doing something fraudulent like that in that moment (because Days always does painfully obvious), it looked legit to me.

In 2010 when she was going to marry EJ, all her family was against it. Her dad, her gran, even Brady warned her against doing so, and she was going to do it anyway. I wish she had listened to them since she hasn't got any sense to work things out for herself. Lucas was warning her not to get involved with EJ, and what did she do, got involved and ran off with EJ without giving Lucas a second thought. With the Sydnapping Rafe was warning her not to trust EJ and she ignored him and went ahead and trusted EJ anyway and we all know what happened. She even sat with Grandmother and told her that she was going back in a relationship with EJ because he had changed, and her grandmother warned her against it, and once again she did her own thing and did not listen. It would have put a lot of us of our misery is she had.

Anyway, if the writers want her to have sex with EJ. and they want her to tell EJ that she loves him she will. It may not not make any sense to us and it certainly would not be believable that either of them love each other but, that woh't stop them from writing it. It unbelievable to me that she is was even kissing EJ after he put a doppelganger in her bed, but she did and she is behaving as if EJ did none of those horrible things to her. This is what we are getting now.

EJ and Sami are plausible because they live in a fictional land that takes place on something we call a soap opera. Would I forgive EJ in real life? Of course not. But the inability these two have to stay away from each other despite what's gone down between them is what makes them exciting, dangerous and sexy as all get out, which is exactly what I want on a soap opera.

Even if i was to ignore all the stuff that they have done to each other which, I can't even if it a soap. I want some credibilty to a love story, if that is what is what they are trying to write but even if I was to ignore everything, it would not have been so bad if they were indeed, exciting, dangerous and sexy. They are non of these things to me. EJ is sexy, but somehow he loses his sexiness when they put him with Sami. I apreciate that is how you find them but, my god they are so boring. I really think they are 100 times worst than Safe. It could all boil down to the fact that, The more they try putting these two together, the more EJ looks pathetic and the more Sami looks like a brainless fickle idiot. That is what I see.
