NEVER HAPPENED, SAMI (and anyone else who may decide to bring it up going forward). They don't have to justify themselves to you, particularly with regard to something that never came to pass. It's disturbing to me the way Rafe and Sami keep badgering Gabi and Will with questions and laying a guilt trip on them about it, even though, again, for greater emphasis, IT NEVER HAPPENED. I agree. At least Will said it was what she wanted, though.

And even if it had happened, it wouldn't be Rafe and Sami's fucking business. If they want Will and Gabi to act as adults, then they need to respect their adult, legal choices. And if either one of them wanted to give the child up for adoption because they feel they are not in a position to parent properly, that is an act of love, not turning one's back on the child. Will went about it in a 100% wrong way, but giving a child up for adoption is not weak, cowardly or morally wrong. Will seems to want his child in his life, and yes, he should be encourages to step up if that is what he wants. But the choices are his and Gabi's to make together.

Sami,maybe Will didn't tell you because you somehow always manage to make every situation all about YOURSELF.

I can hardly believe I'm say this, but Sami is kinda right. I have to say I kindaaaaa agree. I don't agree with Sami berating Will over the abortion, taking Gabi to the clinic. That was their decision together and should be respected, if disagreed with. But I think what Sami is saying to Will, about lies, about the fact that he has a huge support system in place, that he should or could have relied on them, is right. I understand his POV that entrusting his mother with anything usually leads to disaster. But, I dunno, hearing Sami speak, I thought she was being genuine actually, and reassuring her son that he did not have to go through this alone. Will is veering towards that familiar jerky territory that has made me dislike him at all. I mean, whatever, his prerogative. But his attitude is bothering me a little again.

Thank you, Sami! I don't get Will's passivity either. Me either Because God forbid he be a little ambivalent about the idea of being a father right now or a little uncertain about what he really wants and what this means. I love that Will is being passive, that he's uncertain, that he's maybe even a little scared. I want him to be conflicted between not wanting the responsibility of fatherhood at this point in his life, yet not being able to deal with idea of never really knowing his own child. It's real and is complicated and it's not necessarily pretty. It's exactly the way he's been acting all along and it's consistent.

Yeah, I should have been more specific. I wasn't talking about the abortion part. I was referring to the other stuff she was saying.

John,stop putting word's in Marlena's mouth and LET HER TALK.

I was just saying that to state my opinion. Because there I thought Sami was out of line.

Thank you, Sami! I don't get Will's passivity either. Me either Because God forbid he be a little ambivalent about the idea of being a father right now or a little uncertain about what he really wants and what this means. It's not so much that for me, it's that his eyes seem like they are glazed over and he's not really there. This probably doesn't make sense to anyone else. It would be interesting if there was angle we haven't seen yet and that would be him being on pills of some kind to cope.

Passions	Really glad Chloe told Daniel the truth about her past as a prostitute before anyone else could. Stay ahead of the curve, Chloe. I don't like the object of her pursuit but I admire her savvy in pursuing him so far. Chloe hasn't always been the strongest character - she definitely hasn't always been a take-no-prisoners schemer like Kate, Nicole, Kristen or Sami (once upon a time) - so I am enjoying the steel in her spine right now.

It's complicated and messy and difficult, and he wants to do the right thing. Unlike many people in Salem, he seems to comprehend that a baby is a person as opposed to a prop in a happy family narrative. Although, I do wish Will had reached out to someone.
