Another fun, solid episode. Brady Black Widow strikes again! I love that they have left Kristen's death open-ended. I don't expect Eileen Davidson to ever come back, but I'd love to be wrong. I'm also LOVING the Nicole praise in Salem right now. It's about time!

Yay for all the Nicole love flying around Salem!! I'll have to rewatch to get the Gabi/Wilson/Nick business because I was too excited about the other stuff that was happening. Loved that both Roman and Victor were looking out for Nicole too. I'm also glad that the Salem PD has an actual case to investigate -- Hope's great in work mode.

Eric/Nicole/Ericole -- LOVED Eric's desperation to find Nicole and GV was on fire in the scene with Father Matt. He's just phenomenal. And tousled. He's still sexy-tousled. :wub2: I rewound and rewatched those few seconds with Eric and Nicole face-to-face several times and then I watched it at half-speed. (Yes, I know, but I had to stretch it out!) The number of emotions that flashed over both of their faces was kind of incredible. They're both such amazing actors and I am so freaking excited about tomorrow.

I don't generally watch much Ejami, but I thought their fight was spot-on and I'm interested to see how Sami's discovery is going to play out tomorrow.

ETA: Oh, I also liked the Brady/Nicole moment. Perfectly appropriate responses for both of them. And I'm happy about the way this ended with Kristen. Much better to leave an opening for her to return when least expected. With all of the anvils about fertility, I'm totally expecting Kristen to come back with some baby-related storyline.

So Kristen makes her getaway. She's gone, gone, gone ... for now. Not to be forgotten for a quite a while though I suspect.

Loved how Roman was clearly on Nicole's side! Even Vic came to Nicole's 'rescue' ... LOL! The Brady/Nicole scene was very short but it covered everything that needed to be said between those two.

Love that EJ kept digging himself in deeper and deeper. If anything Kristen's confession to him and his agreement to keep it from Sami cements my belief that Sami means next to nothing to him. She's not a DiMera by blood consequently she will always come last to him. What ticks me off is that Sami is too dumb to figure that out for herself but then she deserves to live a long and miserable life with the likes of EJ.

Good scenes between Eric and Fr. Matt - at least Fr. Matt believes him ... too bad it's not going to save Eric's 'job' for him.

I don't think that this "Kristen escaped" idea is an end game. I mean, maybe she did escape but there might be some mystery who "helped" or "killed" her.

Sorry, but Brady didn't act like he believes in what he is saying (I mean, besides appologies). He looks like the same Brady in denial he was after the first non-wedding, when he was saying how much he hates Kristen and never wants to see or hear about her and that Nicole isn't rebound for him which it was.

EJ's lies are not about choosing any Dimera over Sami, it was first about leaving things alone and hoping nothing would come of it and they all go on to live their lives and now it is trying to make sure his lie does not come out so he does not lose Sami. As always with EJ, its all about Sami and their love and life together.

Another great show - my random thoughts...

I LOVED Roman trying to help Nicole, not only because of their history, but because it shows Nicole's continued integration with the Brady family. I would love nothing more than for Eric, Marlena, Roman and Hope to adore Nicole. Can you imagine what that would do for the Sole rivalry???

Victor still gives no fucks about what he's done and it's fantastic. And Nicole becoming more of an ally for him also makes a ton of sense - he's always been all about whatever serves his goals best.

Wilson were actually hot today!! They really need to give them more love scenes otherwise they start feeling like roomies.

Father Matt bringing up Eric's past statements about the sexual encounter made total sense. I love that this reveal is going to have real consequences for Eric's priesthood. It's been a great set-up for him to reconsider his vows. And his looking for Nicole - sigh :wub: - my love for Ericole just continues to grow - can't wait for tomorrow!! GV has been a godsend to this show (pun intended).

Ejami was awesome. I love when they're written in a no-holds-barred fashion that actually USES their sordid history both individually and as a couple, rather than trying to pretend it doesn't exist. They're at their best when they can call each other out and neither has to hide - that's the point of having two people like them together IMO. Although I was hoping Sami would've gotten in a "Oh you want to talk about rape, EJ?" before Roman's call. Loved Sami's "you sonofabitch" (and did you see the little gulp that JS did? Perfect!). I can't wait for tomorrow's fireworks.

Crazy eyes coming back to the forefront now the Kristen is gone is perfect. There's hardly anything I love more than watching Nick fake a caring and supportive on the outside when he's actually being a manipulative ass on the inside.

My son is not a homersexual.

Can we get to the bottom of how Eileen got back on the show to begin with? One story is: Y&R wouldn't share her with Days, so Sony cancelled her Y&R contract, feeling that Days need her more. Keep in mind this was the time when Y&R cleaned house. All the people given pink slips weren't sent to other shows.

Okay, Eileen was officially out of a job. She has never given any indication that she knew that her contract was being ended so she could go to Days. Quite the opposite. Months ago, she even got into it a bit in an interview. All these behind the scenes quotes were to her, people claiming that they got her back on the show to begin with, others saying that they were fighting for her to stay. Eileen said 'That's not what I heard.'

Okay, so was Eileen fired from Y&R, like so many others around that time, or was her contract purposely cancelled by Sony so she could go to Days?

omg so many of her facial expressions in that scene were very WTF-worthy Do you have screen shots of the moment when she goes back to, like, pet Brady on the arm? I remember wanting to crack up at her "acting choices" there.

From what I've read: her contract was purposely cancelled by Sony so that Days could have a chance to have her. Maria Arena Bell was still in charge as EP/HW and she was in Europe at that time. Eileen wasn't told why her contract was terminated. Then (in a very short time) she was contacted by Days. It wasn't very surprising for her because previously (still on the contract with Y&R) she was asked if she would agree to do double duty and she said she would.

Other actors (Genie Francis, Debbi Morgan, Jennifer Landon etc.) were fired later when JFP and JG began their tenure as EP and HW.

Victor: I did hear that you managed to run Kristen off the road. And that's a good deed that deserves to go unpunished. In fact, if you'd managed to kill her, I'd a thrown you a parade. Who knows. If we're lucky, you may still get one.
