Will says no but im looking forward to my first one they kiss gabi and nick come back to the pub they tell Caroline they were at the pre -cana session and john and marlena counselled them she says her and shawn use to council young couples for awhile Will comes in Caroline says if you are here to check on me im good to go she leaves will tells gabi and nick he thought sonny found out but he didnt but he knows i took you to the clinic and helped you get the money for the abortion gabi says did you tell him he was wrong? Will says no, not going to lie to him nymore than i have to and he wont tell anyone gabi says sonny cant stand me and he is chads good friend what if he tells chad chad tells abi the first x-mas after his mom died was the worse she says her dad made a big deal out of every holiday when he was around he always did crazy things and he always told us that santa was real at x-mas she feels bad for her mom jj wont come home for x-mas and she got appendicitis chad says you should worry about yourself i told myself if i got through the first x-mas that there would never be another one like that, as hard as that one she says was it true?

Lydia said a priest was looking for me; I thought it might be you. Eric - Well, if you have time ... Caroline - For what? Eric - I thought it would be nice to have a cup of tea with my wonderful Grandmother. Caroline - Sin of omission Father. Eric - What did I omit? Caroline - The real reason you're here; to check to see if your wonderful grandmother is gaga again. Will was here for breakfast. Roman was here for lunch and you're here to cover the tea time. I may be slightly dumb but I'm not stupid. Eric - We love you and we want this to work for you. We just stop by in case you need backup. And if you don't like it too bad. Caroline - Don't get fresh with me young man. Eric - You're not upset about it, are you? Caroline - I don't like being the center of attention. Do you know what it means to me that you're saying Midnight Mass this year. Eric - Do you know what it means to me that you're going to be there? He yawns. Sorry Grandma ... Caroline - Are you getting enough sleep? Eric - The hospital called for a priest 2 nights in a row. Caroline - You're doing too much. Eric - I'll be fine. I just need a good night's sleep. Caroline - Can't Father Tobias do some of that. Eric - He was doing it before I got here. He deserves a break too. Caroline - Sami tells me that you're going to marry Nick and Gabi and Marlena tells me that you're running the board meetings. Eric - And you need to stop spying on me. Caroline - I think you're taking on a lot. Eric - I'll make you a deal. If you stop worrying about me I'll stop worrying about you. Caroline - I've got to say one thing. You act as if you've got to prove something. Eric - Because I do. HTS - Part 1: Nicole sees Chad and says hi. I haven't seen you much since I've been exiled from DiMeraland. Chad - I'd say it's great to see you but we really don't give a crap about each other. Nicole - Oww. Okay, it's almost Christmas. Chad - You buying out the stores? Nicole - St Luke's has this really great thing where you can sign up and get a kid's name from a family who has no money. You shop for the kid from his Christmas list and then the parish gives presents to the parents so they can give them to their kids on Christmas morning. Chad - Oh, that's really nice. Nicole - It's kind of fun too. It got me into the Christmas spirit so much I bought Sydney a few things. I couldn't help myself. Ever since EJ and I got divorced he made it very clear that I can't see her anymore. Chad - So that's why we're having this conversation. Nicole - I was hoping that you could put them under the tree. I haven't seen her in so long I don't want her to forget me. Silence. Nicole - Okay, sorry that I bothered you. She starts walking away but Chad calls out to her. I have a picture of Sydney with Santa. You want to see it? St Luke's - Part 1: John tells Nick that he's sure Gabi and Marlena are going to be just fine. Nick - I know. John - Now this is your turn to discuss your innermost feelings about marriage with a guy you hardly even know. They chuckle. Nick - I could talk about that all day. I've never been happier about anything in my entire life. John - So what is it about marrying Gabi that makes you so happy? Nick - Well the first time I met her I knew she was what I was looking for. John - And what was that? Nick - You know she needs me but she doesn't like to hang all over me. I know she loves me but she's got her own life, her own friends. She makes me feel better about myself then I've ever felt before. John - Yeah, what a woman. Nick - What? You don't belive me. John - Absolutely I do. Nick - Then why are you looking at me like that? John - I guess I'm just a little surprised about how quickly all that has happened. Marlena asks Gabi if she's ashamed of being pregnant or ashamed of Nick when she finds out that Gabi hasn't told her family about the baby or wedding. Gabi - I'm not ashamed of anything. Marlena - Then why aren't you telling your family about the big changes in your life? Gabi - You think I'm afraid of telling them that I'm getting married because I'm pregnant and the father has a prison record, right? Marlena - That is what I think. Gabi - You want to blame this whole thing on Nick. Marlena - I'm not trying to blame Nick although I think he has been fairly irresponsible. Gabi - What about me? I've been irresponsible. Marlena - Nick is older than you are. He knows how not to make a baby. Gabi - I want this baby and Nick, I would really like to show you all the things he's doing; the sacrifices he's making. Marlena - It isn't a sacrifice to marry the mother of your child. Gabi - Nick is committed to spending his life with the baby and me. Marlena - It's only a sacrifice if he doesn't love you. Gabi - Of course he loves me. We both love each other. Marleana - Then why did you call it a sacrifice? This is Nick's baby too. Gabi recalls telling Will that he's the father of her baby. Gabi - Why are you twisting my words? Marlena - I don't think that I am. Gabi - Nick and I love each other and we want to give this baby a wonderful life. Isn't that enough? Common Grounds - Part 1 : Sonny tells Will that he figured out the secret between Will, Gabi and Nick. Will - I don't know what you're talking about. Sonny - You don't have to do that anymore. Will - Do what? Sonny - Cover it up. I know what happened between you and Gabi. Will - What are you talking about? What exactly do you think happened between me and Gabi? Sonny - It took me a while to figure it out but I did. And what hit me is that the last time I saw you look at Gabi is the first night that you and I ... Will - Were together. Yes, I remember. Sonny - And then Gabi showed up at the door. She looked a wreck and wanted to talk to you alone. And that's when she said she was pregnant, right? Will - Right. Sonny - And then you changed. I could tell that something was weighing you down. Will - It makes sense, don't you think? Sonny - I asked you so many times what was wrong. I was afraid it was something I did. Will - I couldn't tell you. Sonny - Why couldn't you be honest with me? HTS - Part 2: Nicole looks at the picture on Chad's phone. OMG, I miss her so much. She's so cute. Chad - I wish there was something I could do for you; really I do. Nicole - But there isn't, is there? Chad - If I put your presents under the tree EJ's gonna freak out. He's going to make your life worse than it already is. Nicole - I'm sorry I asked. Have a nice Christmas. Chad - Just hold on a second. Go wrap your presents. I'll figure out some way to get them to Sydney. Nicole - What about EJ? Chad - He can't know where they came from which means that Sydney can't know where they came from, okay? Nicole - Yeah okay. I'll know she has them and that means so much. Thank you. Abby walks up and greets them both. Nicole - I'll let you guys catch up. Abby - Actually I was looking for you. You helped Daniel save my mom's life and I just wanted to say thank you. Nicole - I didn't do that much. Daniel's the hero. Abby - Right but it couldn't have been an easy situation for you. Nicole recalls telling Daniel how much it will mean for him to be back with the woman he loves, Jennifer. Nicole - No but I made peace with that and I care about Daniel enough to want him to be happy. I hope you and your family have as happy a Christmas as you can under the circumstances. Abby - Thank you. And I wish the same for you. Nicole leaves. Chad - That was really great of you to say that. Abby - She's left with nothing in this and it's kind of hard not to feel a little bit sorry for her. Chad - I know what you mean. Abby - You were really sweet about Sydney. Chad - She truly loves that kid. What's going on? It seems like everybody is shopping today. Abby - Not me. This is my dress for the wedding actually. Chad - You're going to Nick and Gabi's wedding? Abby - Yes, I'm the maid of honour. Chad - Well somebody has to be. Abby - I know that you don't like Gabi anymore and I don't even know why but Gabi's my really good friend and if you and I are going to start hanging out together then I need you to deal with that. St Luke's - Part 2: Nick - I didn't think the purpose of these Pre-Cana conferences was to convince me not to get married. John - Not trying to do that. Nick - You just said this was happening too fast. John - What I was trying to say is that it takes a long time to get to know someone. The church teaches that a marriage is forever. Nick - I know that ... John - Why do you keep looking at the door? Are you nervous about what's going on with Gabi and Marlena? Nick - No, I just don't know if I like this whole divide and conquer strategy. John - Is that what you think is going on here? Nick - No, it's just that Gabi and I have always done everything together. That's the way it's always been. I know that always hasn't been that long but it's always felt right to us. I believe in her and she helps me believe in myself. John - I can tell. Nick - You know what my problem is. My problem is Father Eric never told us you and Marlena would be doing these conferences with us. I had a prison therapy session with Marlena. She knows every bad thing that there is to know about me. John - You know she can't divulge any thing that she told you in a session. Nick - Sure but that doesn't stop her from telling Gabi that I would make a lousy husband and father. Marlena - I'm sorry if I upset you but counselling is about looking at an issue from every possible angle. That's why I think Eric wanted me to talk to you. Gabi - I understand. I just feel that you're examining only the bad sides. Marlena - Let me be frank. If Eric had told me we would be counselling you and Nick, I would have refused. Gabi - Why? Marlena - Because of your relationship with Will. Gabi - What does that mean? Marlena - I know you had a bad breakup. I know you were very hurt. Gabi - I was. For a long time I thought there was something wrong with me. Then you told me that he was gay and I understood. Marlena - I know you had very strong feelings for him and I had a sense that if he returned those feelings well I might be sitting here talking to you and my grandson. Gabi - I used to be Will's girlfriend and now I'm not. What difference does that make? Marlena - Maybe I'm the wrong person to be talking to you. I seem to keep upsetting you. Gabi - Dr. Evans, I have so much respect for you and I would love for you to approve of what I'm doing but if you don't Nick and I are still just going to be fine. Marlena - Good for you. Gabi - And I care so much for Will still. He's one of my best friends. Honestly, no one has made me feel the way Nick does. I can see that he loves me as much as I love him and that's a first for me. It's not a one way street anymore. Common Grounds - Part 2 : Will - I don't know what else to say besides I'm sorry. Sonny - It didn't enter your mind that I would eventually figure this out? I saw Gabi before you asked me for the money. She looked as sick as a dog and she tried to tell me that it was the flu. And you have Nick thinking she had an upset stomach because of something Chad said. He didn't have a clue. She didn't want him to know she was pregnant. You asked me for the money to help her get an abortion. Will - Right. Sonny - The one reason that she told you she was pregnant and no one else. It's the same reason she wanted you to take her to the abortion clinic and no one else. Will - I am so sorry. I wanted to tell you. It's been driving me insane. Sonny - I can tell. Will - I took Gabi to the abortion clinic because she said she wanted me to. Is it wrong to think that was her decision? Sonny - No, it's her decision but I have the right to know what I'm paying for. Will - Right. I'm sorry. That day was just crazy. Mom and Rafe found out what was going on and then they showed up at the abortion clinic. Before I could say anything Nick charged into the abortion clinic and Gabi changed her mind. If I could take back everything then everything would be different. Sonny - Well it's okay. I understand. Will - You do? You really understand. Sonny - I know that you and Gabi were together when I first got to Salem. You weren't ready to accept the fact that you were gay and you were up front about that. I get that. Will - I wasn't fair to her. Sonny - You must have done something right. She finds out she's pregnant, she's freaking out, she turns to you. It's because you're great to her. Will - I wouldn't say that. Sonny - And then she asks you to keep this secret even from me and you did it. I don't think less of you for that. Will - So you know everything and you still don't hate me. You are the singlemost incredible person that I have ever met. Sonny - So I guess Gabi really didn't want Nick to find out that she was pregnant, huh? Will - Yeah. Sonny - I'm glad she changed her mind. I'm not that crazy about Nick but he is the baby's father. Brady Pub - Part 2: Eric - You know that when I decided on a life in the priesthood it's not because I wanted a cushy job. Caroline - I'm very proud of you. I just don't want you to burn yourself out trying to be everything to everybody. Eric - I'm not. Caroline - I've got say something. You're different than you were before. Eric - I'm a priest. I've grown up. I've got more responsibilites. Caroline - It's not just that. There's an uneasiness about you and it started when you came back from Africa. You must have seen some terrible things in Africa. Eric - The suffering there is unimaginable. Caroline - But you don't want to talk about it right? If you ever do want to talk about it then I'm here. And you don't have to worry about me blabbing it because I forget half the things people tell me anyway. They laugh. I better get back to the kitchen. They hug. Eric - I love you Grandma. Caroline says I know that and walks away. Eric recalls waking up from a nightmare. Nicole walks up and asks him if he's okay. St Luke's - Part 3: Gabi - I met Nick at one of the worst times in my life. Marlena - Really. Gabi - I can't tell you about it but it was really bad. Marlena - I'm sorry. Gabi - You don't have to be. From the moment I met Nick and started to get to know him I just had this feeling that things were going to get better. Marlena - What did he do to make you feel that way? Gabi - I don't know. I guess I just always knew how he felt about me. And he also showed me that he really did love me. I didn't have to figure it out ... I kind of knew, you know what I mean? Marlena - I know exactly what you mean. I'm pleased to say that I think you're getting married for all the right reasons. You've convinced me. Gabi hugs her - Thank you so much Dr. Evans. Marlena - And that's a good thing because you and Nick are going to face some incredible obstacles. Gabi - I know but I think we're going to get through it. Marlena - I think so too. The guys knock so Marlena tells them to come in here. John - See, nothing to worry about. HTS - Part 3: Abby - I know that Gabi isn't your favourite person in the world. Chad - It's worse than that. Abby - I wish you would just tell me why. Chad - I do too but I can't. Abby - Fine. She needed a maid of honour and Will's mom was putting the pressure on ... Chad - You don't have to explain yourself. Abby - Thank you. Chad - So this dress, is it ugly. Abby - No. Chad - Aren't bridesmaids dressed supposed to be ugly? Abby - No, I have much better taste than that except in men. Chad - Oh, so you're not going to take me up on my offer. Abby - You mean that really sweet offer to go out with you because we've both been dumped? Gee, I don't know how I could possibly turn that down. Chad - There are worse ways to spend an evening. Abby - I guess there are like doing a research paper or getting a bikini wax or reading The Canterbury Tales or getting the stomach flu; that could definitely be worse. Watching golf on TV might be worse than going out with you. Chad - Might. You said might be worse. You're running out of steam here. What if we had a good time? Abby - You and me? Chad - Come on, it's possible. Abby - Anything is possible. I should get going. Chad - Wait. I know we've been laughing but I also know life hasn't been a picnic for either one of us especially you. Abby - Yes, that is true. Chad - It's Christmas so from one friend to another how are you doing? Common Grounds - Part 3 : Will - So what you're upset about is that you wish you had known that you were paying for Gabi's abortion. Sonny - Yeah. She had every right to make whatever choice she needed to make. I guess I was just upset because I was in the dark. I think I came down on you a little too hard. Will - No, you didn't. Sonny - I just want you to feel like you can tell me anything. Will - Trust me, I do feel like that, Sonny - Then it's okay. Gabi didn't want anyone to know she was pregnant and you respected that. No matter what I think about her I'm not going to say anything to anybody. Will - The good news is that it's over now. Nick knows everything, Gabi loves him. Sonny - So what, she was just afraid that she was going to lose him if he found out she was pregnant? Will - Yeah, that was it. Sonny - I guess she was wrong because they seem happy. Will - They are. They're getting married. I guess we don't have to talk about this anymore. Sonny - We don't. I promise. Actually I prefer we never talk about Gabi. Will - Works for me. So what are you doing for Christmas? I was thinking, if your parents don't mind, that you'd come with me to the Horton family Christmas. Sonny - I don't know if all the Horton's will be crazy about that. Will - If you're talking about my Dad this was his idea. Sonny - Get out! Will - He's starting to come around. Sonny - That's great. I just didn't know he'd go so far as wanting me around at Christmas. Will - So is that a yes? Sonny - I think my Mom would have a problem with it unless you come to my house too. Have you ever been to a Greek Christmas. Will - No but I'm looking forward to my first one. They kiss. Brady Pub - Part 3: Eric - I didn't see you come in. You startled me but I'm fine. Nicole - Good because I kind of need you to be fine. Eric - Why? What happened? Nicole - I was shopping for presents for my kid at the parish and I couldn't help but think how this would have been the first Christmas with my baby and how I can't see Sydney. Eric - I know. That must really hurt. Nicole - And then I ran into Abigail Devereaux. Eric - How did go? Nicole - She was actually nice. It just reminded me that Jennifer and Daniel will probably be spending Christmas together. Sometimes Christmas sucks you know. Eric - I know. Nicole - I hate to tell you this Padre. You say you're fine but you look like hell. Eric - It's just that I have so much to do. What I need is a few more hours in the day. Nicole - What you need is a nap. Eric - I think you're right. He leaves. Gabi and Nick return. Nick tells Caroline they can cover the dinner shift if she wants to go get some rest. Caroline - Where did you kids have to go? I forgot. Gabi - We started our Pre-Cana conference today. Caroline - Right! How did it go? Nick - We lucked out. We had John and Marlena to talk to. Caroline - Good. Shawn and I use to counsel young couples for a while. I'll never forget their young eager faces. And I wish I could remember where I left my keys as well. Did they counsel you about not keeping things inside when you're upset. You have to talk out a problem in order to solve it. Gabi - Yeah we know that. Will comes in. Caroline - If you're here to check on me I'm good to go. I'll see you later. Nick - I'll meet you back there in the kitchen. Gabi - Hey, is anything wrong? Will - No, I thought there was for a second there, but there's not. Nick - What do you mean? Will - I thought that Sonny found out ... Gabi - But he didn't? Will - No. Gabi - Thank God. Will - However he did put it together that I helped you get money for the abortion and that I took you to the clinic. Gabi - Did you tell him that he was wrong? Will - No. I'm not going to lie to him anymore than I have to besides he's not going to say anything. Gabi - How do you know that? Will - I just do. Gabi - No, no, no. Sonny can't stand me. What if he tells Chad? HTS - Part 3: Chad - I remember the first Christmas after my mom died. It was the worst. Abby - Yeah. My dad used to make this big deal out of every single holiday; at least when he was around. He'd hide our Easter Egg basket so it would take us half a day to find it. And then the money we'd get from the tooth fairy, it was never just under our pillow. One year he tied it to the ceiling fan. And on Christmas every single year he would swear to us that Santa was real. JJ's on vacation with his friends this year. He can't face coming home. Chad - I'm so sorry. Abby - I'll be okay. I just feel so bad for my mom. She didn't deserve appendecitis on top of everything else. Chad - I'm not one to give advice but can I say something. You worry so much about your mom, you really need to be worried about yourself. You have this great family. You need to utilize them and let them help you get through this. Abby - I know. I would. I just don't know what they can do. Chad - I told myself if I got through the first Christmas that there would never be another one as hard as that. Abby - Was it true? Chad - Yeah. Don't get me wrong. You're always going to miss your Dad. You'll just find better ways of handling it. Abby - Just make it through the first one. That helps. Thank you. Brady Pub - Part 4: Caroline walks up to Nicole. Excuse me, I was having tea with Eric. Do you know where he went? Nicole - No. Caroline - Okay. St Luke's - Part 4: Eric kneels by his bed and prays. Bless me Father for I have sinned. Please help me understand, forgive me. Please help me forgive myself. HTS - Part 4: Marlena and John are strolling though the square. John stops. Here's where we split up. Marlena - What! John - So we can do our Christmas shopping for each other. Marlena laughs. I've been talking to Gabi for so long saying that marriage is a hard thing to work it ... I guess I'm overreacting. John - I guess so. Do you think the kids are going to make it? Marlena - They're getting married for the right reasons, that's a start. John - They have a rough road ahead of them. Marlena - She's young to be having a baby. John - He's got a prison record. How the hell is he going to find a job to support a wife and child? Marlena - Did you say that to him? John - What's the point? I tell you one thing, today made me realise one thing. How lucky we are. We've been through all the big battles and I'm still more in love with you then ever before. Marlena - I am too. John - And grateful too because you listen to whatever is on my mind and I know you'll always be honest with me even if it isn't easy. Marlena - I don't know what I ever did to deserve you. John - I do. You were you. They kiss. Common Grounds - Part 4 : Chad returns. How's everything here? Sonny - Good. Chad - I take it you worked things out with Will. Sonny smiles - I guess so. Just in time for Christmas. Chad - It's about Gabi, right? Sonny - I promised him that we wouldn't talk about it. Chad - That's what she does. She gets inbetween friends, she gets inbetween couples. Sonny - It's all good. Chad - I'm really happy for you and Will. I mean that. I just hope you know you still can't trust Gabi. Everything I told you about her is the truth. Sonny - I know that. Chad - Good. Brady Pub - Part 5: Will - I'm telling you that you can trust Sonny. He's not going to tell anybody. He's not going to tell Chad. Gabi - I don't know how you can be so sure. Will - Because he gave me his word and I trust that. Gabi - You said that Sonny figured things out. What if Chad figures things out too? Nick - Given Sonny didn't figure out the most important part ... he still thinks I'm the father right? Will - Right. Nick - so does everybody else. John and Marlena, Will's mom, Rafe. You and I are the ones getting married. You and I are going to be the one's raising this baby together. Who's going to look at all of that and figure out the biological father is actually some gay boy. I think we all just need to calm down. I need to go help out Mrs. Brady in the kitchen. See you later. He leaves. Will - Gay boy? St Luke's - Part 5: Eric is having a nightmare. He screams out no. When Nicole touches him he sits up quickly. Nicole - My God, what is wrong with you? |

My heart goes aflutter when Nicole mentions Sydney. I keep hoping that some way, somehow Sydole will happen for real. I appreciate Chad helping Nicole out with the presents. Slowly and ever so tentatively he's growing on me. Abby's reluctance to be Gabi's maid of honor, though understandable since they aren't terribly close, has somehow managed to make the champion of underdogs in me feel sorry for Gabi and Nick. No one in their peer group likes them or wants to be in their wedding. But Nick had to go and blurt out that "gay boy" line and...poof. Goodwill squelched. |

Other than the fact that they are both played by Blake Berris, this Nick might as well be a completely different character than 2006-09 Nick. I don't even think his prison stint is an adequate explanation for the complete personality transplant that the character has received. Why must TPTB keep bringing back fan favorites only to ruin them? |

Abby and Gabi are friends, why is everything turning out badly for them? I like Nabi, but this stupid storyline and Nick's homophobia is making it boring for me. |

Chad, you just got played by one of the best. Nicole had him eating out of the palm of her hand every step of the way. She needs to give it up - Sydney is NOT her child. Chad should not be enabling her obsession. |

I'm glad Abby thanked Nicole, I just wish her mom would as well. This episode was alright, I might watch it. But I don't get why Sonny said he doesn't really care for Nick? I can see him saying that when he discovers Nick hates gays, but since Sonny doesn't know that yet, doesn't really make sense. Will and Nick is getting good! |

My Current reaction watching DAYS!

I wasn't all gaga over Nick before... but this version of Nick is a asshole. This whole pre-cana meeting is sounding all kinds of weird!

It is reasonable that Chad and Abby would feel sorry for Nicole because of the recent loss of her full term baby and why Chad might understand how Nicole under the circumstances might get some comfort from being able to reach out to Sydney,the only child with which she has had a full parental relationship.I really don't see this as Nicole playing Chad,I see it as an admission by Nicole that she misses her relationship with someone important to her and a thougthful gesture by Chad during the holiday season. |

I for one may actually start liking Chad just for this act alone, especially considering she did just lose a second child. Being nasty to someone after experiencing such a loss would do more harm then good. |

Ok first we have EJ donating gifts to the needy, now Nicole has adopted a family to give gifts to. While their actions are both admirable we already have enough saintly Hortons and Bradys. Please someone give them a cocktail. |

I didn't say he should be nasty to her. I said he shouldn't feed her obsession with a child who doesn't belong to her. Chad recognized immediately that she had an agenda when she said hello to him, it's just that Nicole plays the victim so well that she was still able to get him to do what she wanted and make him think it was his idea. |

I actually don't agree with this because while I think the father should support the child, marrying the mother just because she's pregnant too often just compounds the error. That aside, this assertion did make me wonder whether we're going to get a situation down the road where Will decides to marry Gabi in order to ensure custody or something. Hmmm.
