I'm wondering if its not Sami since last time they used this angle was last Friday and then it was revealed to be Sami Monday.
I don't think Sami would take pictures. She would just storm through the door barking and flailing every limb.
She could have hired someone to follow him. :shrug:
My idea on who's watching Abby:
1. I was thinking maybe EJ has a photographer taking pics to somehow scare Abby into taking a step back. He did mention he had to find a way to "get her under control". He did position her to be facing directly into the window.

2. The British "bird watcher" . Of course I have no idea what he is doing taking pics of them! He is creepy though!

3. I like the idea that Sami hired a PI to follow Abby around too. She knows her history with Austin. And I think I would be suspicious of that Chad story. They broke up months ago! And she's just now crying to EJ about it?! Whatever!

4. Not thinking Nick. Just gross taking pics of his cousin making out!

Can't way to see Monday!
Number one is good, but it's too smart for Days.

It'd be cool if the person spying on Ejabby turned out to be Chad. And I'd be super impressed if DAYS had recast the role of Chad and managed to keep it secret all this time! (Actually, I recall that DAYS put out a casting call for a really tall twenty-something guy that sounded like it could be a Chad recast. But I don't think we ever learned if DAYS had hired someone for that role.)

And it makes sense that Chad would be spying on Abigail in Horton Square. Here's my theoretical scenario: Maybe Chad returned to Salem a few days earlier in hopes of speaking to Abigail, so he followed her to Smith Island. But before Chad could speak to Abigail, EJ showed up at the cabin. Chad spied on them to find out what was going on and was shocked to see them having sex. Chad decides not to confront Ejabby and instead decides to get revenge. Chad could've been spying on Abigail in Friday's episode because Chad knew that Abigail would eventually have another rendezvous with EJ. Then Chad, with camera in hand, follows Abigail to Smith Island and photographs her kissing EJ.

Also, it makes sense for Chad to be around when the Ejabby affair is revealed because it would really increase the emotional fallout. Everyone in Salem would be pissed at EJ for betraying Sami, whereas Chad would be pissed at EJ for betraying their brotherly bond. And it would be an especially vicious betrayal because Chad had asked EJ to be kind to Abigail and to help her after Chad had left town. Plus, DAYS needs more twenty-something characters (both male and female), so the Ejabby reveal would be a perfect time for Chad to return to Salem.

http://www.network54.com/Forum/358635/

Director: Herb Stein
Scriptwriter: Carolyn Culliton


Segment 1: Abby is in the square. She mutters that the next ferry is in 15 mins. She reads her text from EJ saying they need to talk about Chad again. Someone is watching her.

EJ stares at a family photo and then recalls having sex with Abby. He gets a call from Abby. Abby - I know I shouldn't call but you texted. EJ - We have to meet. Abby - Not in a public place. My mom just gave me a really long lecture about you. I don't want to go through that again. EJ - Okay. Abby - So Smith Island? The next ferry leaves in 15 mins. EJ - Abigail, I don't think that's a good idea. Abby - Fine. She hangs up. EJ - Ab ... Ab ... damn it. I have to find some way to keep the girl in control.

Julie is on her cell at the pub. No I haven't heard from Nick in weeks. Then I got a strange text from him and now an automated message saying his cell phone service has been cut off. Please Aunt Marie, don't worry. I promise you I will get to the bottom of this.

T comes up to Gabi who's at the club and asks if she wants another latte. Gabi thinks she's going to head home because the thing that Sonny planned for Will is probably done already. T - I wouldn't count on that. Gabi - You know something, don't you?

Will and Sonny are still in bed kissing. Will - I hope you know I didn't say no to your proposal because I don't want to get married. It's because ... Sonny - You want to talk things through and make sure the timing is right. The phone rings. It's Julie. I was wondering if I could speak with Gabi. Will - She's not here right now. Sonny says she's at the club. Julie - Alright. Thank you darling. I'll talk to you soon. Sonny asks who called. Will - Julie. Sonny - What does she want with Gabi? Will - I have no idea.

JJ - Why do you want to know about Nicole? Theresa - So you know her, good, then you can tell me, why is she staying at Daniel's place.

Brady takes another drink and then checks himself in the mirror.

Nicole say - No, you can't do this. Eric - You need to think about this. Chyka - I have. Eric - What will happen to you? Chyka - I'll get away. Eric - Your mortal soul. By killing us you'll be damning yourself.

Abby gets another text from EJ. Smith Island. She smiles and starts walking out of the square. It appears someone is watching and following her.

EJ gets a text and then picks up the house phone. Get me the boat. Thank you.

Maggie finds Brady in the foyer. Brady - Before you say anything, I went to a meeting earlier today. I feel pretty good. Everything's fine but I do have some things I need to deal with, work-related. Maggie - We set aside this time to talk and we're going to ... right now.

Gabi - You know what Sonny's surprise is. Tell me! Julie walks up. So sorry to interrupt. I really need to talk to you. It's about Nick.

JJ - I don't know why she's living at Daniel's. Theresa - Lose the attitude. You want to seem more cooperative than that. JJ doesn't know why she's there. She used to work for my cousin Eric so if you want to know what's up, call him.

Chyka - I'm afraid I don't share your religious beliefs. To me life is about survival of the fittest and I know if I don't get rid of you now they'll never stop coming after me. Nicole - We won't tell anyone. We don't even know your name. Eric - I know you're just doing what Kristen DiMera paid you to do. You're the reason she did what she did to me. If you just cooperate and give us the proof that we need. Just let us go. Chyka - And what? You'll simply look the other way, you and the Heavenly Father. I don't have that kind of faith in men or God. Nicole - He's telling you the truth. He's a priest for God's sake. Chyka - He's a man pleading for his life. He'll say anything which is why I can't risk it. I have no choice but to kill you both.


Segment 2: Will - Did I tell you Gabi asked Abigail to be Ari's Godmother. Sonny - Yeah. Will - I think it's a good idea, don't you? Sonny nods. Will - We were thinking who would be her Godfather and we were hoping that even though you're kind of already a second Dad that you'd be her Godfather also. Sonny - Me? Will - Is there anybody else in this bed? Sonny - You want me to be her Godfather? Will - Of course we do. You brought her into this world. You're the first person she saw. You made her breathe. Sonny - God yes. When she started to cry that was the most beautiful noise that I'd ever heard. And then when I saw you in her face, that was amazing. I would like nothing more than to be Ari's Godfather. They kiss.

Julie - I can't help but notice that you seem a little uptight. Gabi - You are Nick's cousin and things didn't end well for us. Julie - Really? The last time I spoke with Nick he made it seem like you ... Gabi - I never said that I was going to get back together with him. Julie - Then why would he think that? Gabi - I don't know. I'd guess you'd have to ... Julie - Ask him. I can't. His phone's dead and nobody's heard a word from him. Gabi - Abigail has.

Abby arrives at the cabin and retrieves the key but before she can use it the door opens. EJ stands in the doorway.

Maggie - I know you're trying to avoid talking to me and that worries me. That means you're holding a lot in right now. Brady - No. I went to the meeting and I talked there. Maggie - About Kristen and what she did to you and your brother? Brady - No, no, no. Maggie - You should be infuriated and you're keeping it all inside. And that's going to simmer inside until it boils over. Brady - Do you really think talking about it is going to make me forgive and forget? Do you? About what Kristen did to me and Eric. It's not going to happen Maggie. No way in hell is it going to happen!

JJ - What's up with all these questions about Nicole? Theresa - Just tell me, is Daniel doing her or not? JJ - I don't know. They don't share with me. Theresa - I don't think so. I would have heard about at the hospital. Either they're doing a really good job of keeping it on the dl or it's not happening. What! JJ - I'm just thinking about how you're getting all worked up over Nicole and I'm kind of hoping you might try something. Theresa - Why? JJ - Because it would be your basic Bambi vs Godzilla. He laughs.

Eric - You do know don't you that if you use drugs to kill us it's like leaving a calling card for the police. Chyka - The Salem PD Forensic's Dept. is no match for me. Nicole - Dr. Jonas is and he's on to you and with his help the police will turn everything to you. Chyka - That's highly improbable and even if he were able to trace anything back to me he would simply meet the same fate as the two of you. Eric - So you have no problem killing 3 innocent people just to cover your tracks. Chyka - If I have to but I would prefer to keep it down to 2.


Segment 3: Abby - You sent me a text about Chad to get me alone? EJ - I did that as a precaution. Abby - You did that to get what you wanted. EJ - I did that in case somebody saw my text on your telephone. Abby - It also covers your ass in case Sami sees you're texting me. So EJ what is it that you do want? EJ - I wanted to talk to you. I know that you were upset the other day when I asked you not to call ... Abby - Don't tell me what I feel. EJ - I know that you were upset Abigail in the same way that I can see that you're upset now. Abby - What? I'm supposed to be happy that I'm covering up an affair with EJ DiMera? EJ - We're not having an affair. Abby - Right. My mistake. It was just sex. EJ - I care about you. Abby - Don't, don't EJ. Don't give me your pretty words. I know you. I know you don't mean them. EJ - I do mean them and I feel responsible because what happened should not have happened. Abby - But it did. It did happen and unlike you I can't just pretend that it didn't. EJ - Right, which is why after some consideration I've decided to take you up on your offer. Abby - And what's that? EJ - Abigail, I think you should move back to Europe.

Gabi - Abigail heard from him the other day. She said he sounded great and he said he was doing fine. Julie - Why is it making you so nervous to tell me this. Gabi, did Nick frighten you? Did he do something to you? Gabi - No, it's just that it was very hard so say goodbye especially after everything we'd been through. Julie - So you think it's best that he's gone. Gabi - No, I didn't say that.

Theresa - So you want me to be afraid of this Nicole. JJ - I think you should be. She's certifiable. She was jealous of my Mom and Daniel ... my mom ended up getting arrested for murder. Theresa - Hold on, Daniel and Nicole dated. JJ - Hold on, I was just talking about murder and you want to focus on who dated who. Theresa - Whom. And getting arrested for murder is no big deal. My parents got along best when my Mom was on trial. What! JJ - You! Look, Nicole told the cops my mom pushed her down a flight of stairs killing her baby when she already knew the baby was dead. That being said, I actually think that Daniel will be better off with her than you cause she's crazy but you're a monster.

Eric - You don't have to kill us. I give you my word as a priest, I will not go after you if you let us go. Chyka - In negotiating you have nothing to offer my immortal soul. Nicole - If you don't care about your soul, what about your life? It's a win / win situation for you. No police, nothing. I was married to a DiMera and they don't want any of their associates to get caught so you could just disappear. Chyka - If you were married to a DiMera then you'd know what happens to an associate who botches a job or rats one of them out but you are right about one thing. I can't use poison in the drugs. I have to do it so that when your bodies are found there will be minimal evidence linking me to your unfortunate demises. It's bad enough that Dr. Jonas knows what I look like, it's not like he knows who I am. So it's on to Plan B. He puts on plastic gloves.


Segment 4: EJ holds out a cup of tea to her. I know how much you enjoyed living there and I would make you very comfortable. She doesn't take the tea. Abby - OMG. OMG. You think that you can bribe me? EJ - No, I'm just thinking about your well-being after what you said ... Abby - Whoa. This is for me then. This is for my well-being. I see. So then moving 4,000 miles away is just a coincidence that that would work out great for you, right? I wouldn't be around to interrupt your wedding plans. EJ - That's not why I suggested it. Abby - No? I have an idea EJ. Why don't you quit your job? You leave your family. That would be great for my well-being you know. That would just be great. My God, you don't even want to look at me, do you? Someone peers through the window.

After a kiss Sonny tells Will he still has the ring in case he wants to change his mind. Will doesn't think that would be fair to Sonny. Sonny doesn't get that. Will - I still have so much hanging over my head because of my Mom, Nick ... I just want to get rid of all my baggage before I marry you. I want to be your perfect partner, perfect husband for you. Sonny - You kind of already are. As long as we're together then I guess I can wait a little while. Will - Are you sure. Sonny is. More kisses.

Gabi - I'm really sorry Julie but I have to get the baby back to Will. Julie - Alright. But listen if you do get in touch with Nick would you please tell him his family is very worried about him. Gabi - Of course, I will. Julie - I'm sorry if I upset you. Julie leaves. T comes over. Are you alright? Was that about Nick? Is he coming back to Salem. Gabi - No he's not coming back. T - What was it about? Gabi - I'm sorry T, I have to go.

Maggie - I just think if you could verbalize what's going on in your head then you could find a way ... Brady - To what? Make peace with Eric? What if I don't want to make peace with Eric. Maybe my life would have been a hell of a lot better if that pious jerk hadn't come back to town. Maggie - So you think Eric is to blame for what happened. Brady - No. He's a saint. He's perfect. I just don't want to talk about it anymore. I want to leave the room. I'm going to leave the room. We're all caught up so I'll see you later. Maggie - We're not caught up. There's one more thing we haven't talked about. Brady - What would that be? Maggie - Rehab. We haven't talked about you going back to rehab.

Theresa - You better watch yourself big guy. Your sentencing is coming up and you're slowly moving from the I'll tolerate you list to the I hate you list where your mother and that bitchy sister of yours currently reside. And you don't want to be on that list. Bad things happen to people on that list. JJ - I told you all that I know about Daniel and Nicole. Theresa - And you're going to find out more. JJ - How am I supposed to do that? Theresa - That's your problem, not mine. Figure it out. JJ leaves.

Chyka uses a wipe on Nicole's arm. Nicole - Are you crazy? Don't you watch Law & Order. You're never going to get rid of your DNA. Chyka - You know, you're right. Thank you. You make a very good point. He picks up Eric's phone and wallet and other stuff off the floor and puts them in his bag. Nicole - What are you doing? Chyka walks over to a pipe. Nicole - What is that? Chyka - A gas line that used to lead to the furnace. It should have been capped off but it wasn't and I just opened it. Nicole - No! Chyka - I'm sorry but it's the only way. Hopefully you'll die of asphyxiation before the explosion. But at least I can be sure that all the evidence, all my DNA will be blown away sky high. Eric - You can't do that. There are other people in the building. Chyka - Blame her, she's the one that kept going on about DNA. What's that expression? Smoke 'em if you got 'em. He leaves and locks the door behind himself. Nicole and Eric scream No. Nicole cries - We're going to die, aren't we?


Segment 5: Brady - You didn't want to talk. You wanted to put me away. Maggie - Don't you get it! I'm worried about you. You're in crisis ... Brady - I'm out. I'm fine. Maggie - You're letting Kristen win. You know that, don't you. Brady leaves.

EJ - Abigail, I'm not looking at you because it's hard for me to see the pain that I've caused you and because of the feelings that I get when I look at you are the cause of this in the first place. Abby - Damn! You are good, aren't you? Just like my mother said. You can turn on that charm any time that you feel like it and you will do whatever it takes to get what you want EJ. EJ - No, I'm just trying to do the right thing. Abby - No, you're trying to do the right thing for you by bribing me, by sending me packing. EJ - I'm not bribing you or sending you anywhere. Abby - Oh no? All of this happened because of what I know about Nick. First you slept with me to keep me from talking to Hope and now, now you're offering me free airfare. EJ - I came here to tell you Gabi's story. And what happened here was not to stop you from talking about it ... Abby - What happened is that we had sex and forgive me if I think that was a major calculation on your part. The Horton cabin isn't exactly a high end ??? You're engaged EJ to a beautiful, successful woman and I'm .. I'm me. EJ goes to her. Abigail, you are a beautiful, young woman who has her whole life ahead of her. Abby - Stop. Don't say that EJ because it's not true. Maybe I could have believed that this was chemistry for a moment but then right after Gabi tracks me to down to make sure that I got your story right. You didn't think that I'd keep quiet so you sent in the reserves. EJ gets in her face. Now you listen to me. I didn't send Gabi to talk to you. Now I give you my word on that and my word is my bond young lady. And you'd do well to believe that not for my sake, but for yours. Abby - Right. Right. EJ DiMera found me irresistible. It doesn't make any sense; none of it makes any sense.

JJ returns home. Maggie says hi when she comes out of the Hobbit. I just let myself in to get this. JJ - Emergency casserole situation? Maggie - I'm frustrated and cooking calms me down. What's wrong? JJ - It's no big deal. Maggie - It feels like it is. Please talk to me. JJ - I just keeping about Mom and Daniel. It was my fault. I hurt my Mom so much. I don't want to do that ever again. Maggie - JJ, has something happened?

Sonny holds up the christening gown. My parents are so bummed that they can't come to the Christening. Will - They don't even know you're going to the Godfather. Sonny - Maybe if I told them they'd get back from Australia on time. Gabi returns. I'm sorry. I know that you guys wanted to be alone but ... Will - What's wrong? Gabi - Julie tracked me down and started grilling me about Nick. I tried not to say anything but she realised that his text's stopped coming in and that his phone is just as dead as he is. Sonny - We knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Will - How did you handle it? Gabi - I didn't say anything but I know when she can't find him she's going to come right back to me.

Nicole gets frustrated with trying to break free. It's not going to work. Eric - Don't give up hope. Nicole cries - There's no hope. I can smell the gas. That sicko was right. If we don't die of asphyxiation we're going to blow up. Eric - Just focus okay on getting out of those ropes. Nicole - How are you so calm? Aren't you afraid to die? Eric - No, I'm not.


Segment 6: Will - You need to stay calm. Gabi - You did not see the look in her eyes. They're all going to be at the Christening tomorrow, all of his family. Sonny - You can't think of them as Nick's family. Think of them as Will's family. They love Will, they love his baby and they love the mother of his baby. They are not out to get you. Will - He's right Gabi. What happened to Nick was awful but it was his fault, not yours. Tomorrow is all about Arianna, nothing else. Just keep telling yourself that.

Brady sits in the park and pours alcohol into his coffee cup. Theresa tries to walk by but Brady sees her. Hi Theresa. How are you doing? Going to another meeting? Theresa - Sure am. Just can't get enough of them. Brady - Yeah, they're fun. Right. Theresa - What's that supposed to mean? Brady - You're lying to me. You hate them as much as I do. Theresa - That's not true. Brady - Come on. I know a phoney when I see one and sweetie you are phoney.

Maggie tells JJ to talk to her. JJ - I worry that there's bad karma out there that's going to come and bite me and I'm going to do something stupid. I can't do anything right. Maggie - You've got to ease up on yourself. Things aren't always easy. I've hit a few roadblocks in my life but I found if I clear my head and keep my heart open, the answers to the problems usually present themselves. I think the same holds true for you.

Abby - That's not true. It does make sense. This is all my fault. EJ - Abigail, please, will you stop being so hard on yourself. Abby - Look at what I've done EJ. EJ - Listen to me. What happened between the two of us just happened. We lost control. That's it. Far, far more people have done far, far worse. Abby - That's not what I meant. It's not what I did EJ. It's who I am. I'm a terrible person because in spite of everything I still want you.

Eric - I have faith that death isn't the end. Nicole - I wish I had that kind of faith but I don't. She cries. Eric - If it comes to that we'll still be together. Nicole - Dr. Strangelove made sure of that. Eric - I would never leave you if I could. I would stay with you because I never stopped caring about you. And if it comes to that I just ... there's something that I want you to know. There's something that I need for you ... I just can't leave this world without you knowing.


Segment 7: Gabi - You're right. I have to stay focused on Arianna. Sonny - I want to thank you for letting me be Ari's Godfather. Abigail and I are two lucky people. Gabi hugs him - Arianna's the lucky one. Will - I agree. And tomorrow she's going to be christened and nothing or no one is going to ruin that day.

JJ is talking to himself now. I love you Aunt Maggie but you live in a dream world. Nothing is going to present itself. He looks at the document Abby left behind and recalls their conversation from earlier in the day. You left your paperwork Abs. He stares at the cheque that's attached. Maybe if I'm super careful it could work.

Theresa - You think I'm a phoney. Brady - No I don't think you're a phoney, I know you're a phoney. Just like I know you set your sights on Dr. Dan just to get back at Jennifer for firing you. Theresa - And that makes me a phoney? Brady - No, that just makes you stupid. The phoney part is this road to redemption that you're on. You're about as committed to change as ... Theresa - You are? And I'm not stupid. For example, I know you're drinking. Your enunciation is just a little too perfect. You can't kid a kidder. Brady - You should keep your observations to yourself Theresa. Back off. Theresa - Wow, I didn't know you were drinking but now I do. Brady - Go to hell.

Abby - I can't stop thinking about you; about what we did. It's staring at me every single waking or sleeping moment. I can feel you touch me. I can smell your skin. OMG. I'm such an idiot. EJ goes to her. Abigail, you're not an idiot. You're you. This thing that you're feeling ... he takes her hand and turns her facing him, it's nothing more than an infatuation. Abby - No, it's not. EJ, I slept with you twice and God, help me I'd do it again. She kisses him and he kisses her back as someone snaps pictures.

Eric takes Nicole's hand. Nicole, you mean the world to me from the moment we met until now. Nicole - Eric that's sweet but ... Eric - I need to say this. I need you to know that I always knew there was something and I need ... I want you to know that despite my vocation, despite my commitment to God, that I have feelings for you. My feelings are stronger than friendship. If this all came to an end it wouldn't be right if I didn't say something. I just want to be honest with you, to myself, to God. I love you. He kisses her forehead as she cries.
I really appreciate the caps now more than ever.Quite often I remember phrases or the essence of what is happening on screen.Its great to be able to return to this recap for exact wording.

EJ:I care about you. Abigail I'm not looking at you because it's hard for me to see the pain that I've caused you and because of the feeling that I get when I look at you are the cause of this in the first place.I'm just trying to do the right thing.Abigail,you are a beautiful young woman who has her whole life ahead of her.Abigail ,please will you stop being so hard on yourself.Abigail ,you're not an idiot.You're you.This thing that you're feeling,it's nothing more than an infatuation.

Abby:I 'm a terrible person because in spite of everthing.I still want you.I can't stop thinking about you;about what we did.Its staring at me ever single waking and sleeping moment.I can feel you touch me.I can smell your skin.No,it's not (infactuation).EJ I slept with you twice and God help,I would do it again.

Eric:I have faith that death isn't the end.If it comes to that we'll still be together.I would ever leave you,if I could.I would stay with you because I never stopped caring about you.And if it comes to that i just..There is something I want you to know.There's something that I need for you..I just can't leave this world without you knowing.
You've meant the world to me from the moment we met until now.I need to say this.I need you to know I always knew there was something and I need,I want you to know that despite my vocation,despite my committment to God,I have feelings for you.My feelings are stronger than friendship.If this all came to an end,it wouldn't be right If I didn't say somehting.I just want to be honest with you,to myself,to God.I love you".

Shivers and tears.I don't know exactly who is responsible for this dialogue but for me,they hit it out of the park.Best couples dialogue in eons.Its difficult to believe I am wishing part of my life away because of Days but I am on pins and needles for Monday show.I am slightly pissed that I have a 1:00p.m. appointment but I am going to watch this episode as soon as humanly possible Days is truly CANNOT WAIT TO SEE TV.

It'd be cool if the person spying on Ejabby turned out to be Chad. And I'd be super impressed if DAYS had recast the role of Chad and managed to keep it secret all this time! (Actually, I recall that DAYS put out a casting call for a really tall twenty-something guy that sounded like it could be a Chad recast. But I don't think we ever learned if DAYS had hired someone for that role.)

And it makes sense that Chad would be spying on Abigail in Horton Square. Here's my theoretical scenario: Maybe Chad returned to Salem a few days earlier in hopes of speaking to Abigail, so he followed her to Smith Island. But before Chad could speak to Abigail, EJ showed up at the cabin. Chad spied on them to find out what was going on and was shocked to see them having sex. Chad decides not to confront Ejabby and instead decides to get revenge. Chad could've been spying on Abigail in Friday's episode because Chad knew that Abigail would eventually have another rendezvous with EJ. Then Chad, with camera in hand, follows Abigail to Smith Island and photographs her kissing EJ.

Also, it makes sense for Chad to be around when the Ejabby affair is revealed because it would really increase the emotional fallout. Everyone in Salem would be pissed at EJ for betraying Sami, whereas Chad would be pissed at EJ for betraying their brotherly bond. And it would be an especially vicious betrayal because Chad had asked EJ to be kind to Abigail and to help her after Chad had left town. Plus, DAYS needs more twenty-something characters (both male and female), so the Ejabby reveal would be a perfect time for Chad to return to Salem.
And chad can go on to ruin the ejami wedding getting weirdly blamed for the whole mess by everyone involved but a new place in Salem as a serial wedding stopper in conjunction with Marlena.

Maybe Daniel/Jennifer would be more popular if Marlena propped them? Usually when the show wanted an unpopular couple to be more accepted by the audience or wanted a couple people were torn about to be more accepted they pulled out Marlena to give her blessing like what happened with Mike and Carrie

Hey they've tried everything else so it couldn't hurt

It'd be cool if the person spying on Ejabby turned out to be Chad. And I'd be super impressed if DAYS had recast the role of Chad and managed to keep it secret all this time! (Actually, I recall that DAYS put out a casting call for a really tall twenty-something guy that sounded like it could be a Chad recast. But I don't think we ever learned if DAYS had hired someone for that role.)

And it makes sense that Chad would be spying on Abigail in Horton Square. Here's my theoretical scenario: Maybe Chad returned to Salem a few days earlier in hopes of speaking to Abigail, so he followed her to Smith Island. But before Chad could speak to Abigail, EJ showed up at the cabin. Chad spied on them to find out what was going on and was shocked to see them having sex. Chad decides not to confront Ejabby and instead decides to get revenge. Chad could've been spying on Abigail in Friday's episode because Chad knew that Abigail would eventually have another rendezvous with EJ. Then Chad, with camera in hand, follows Abigail to Smith Island and photographs her kissing EJ.

Also, it makes sense for Chad to be around when the Ejabby affair is revealed because it would really increase the emotional fallout. Everyone in Salem would be pissed at EJ for betraying Sami, whereas Chad would be pissed at EJ for betraying their brotherly bond. And it would be an especially vicious betrayal because Chad had asked EJ to be kind to Abigail and to help her after Chad had left town. Plus, DAYS needs more twenty-something characters (both male and female), so the Ejabby reveal would be a perfect time for Chad to return to Salem.
And chad can go on to ruin the ejami wedding getting weirdly blamed for the whole mess by everyone involved but a new place in Salem as a serial wedding stopper in conjunction with Marlena.
I wonder how Stefano will feel when he finds out that EJ stole Chad's girl? We all know that, 1) Stefano loves Chad more than EJ; 2) Stefano has weird antiquated views about women, so he'll believe that Abby is Chad's woman; 3) He expects family loyalty, specially since Chad sacrificed his life for his brother.

I love this idea! I miss chad! So mad at EJ for boinking his ex! And using his name as the sex keyword for their rendezvous!

Since I'm not invested in the storyline, I think it's all soapy goodness. But if I was invested in Ejami, I'd be mad at EJ, too.

NO. Just NO. Enough characters have been sacrificed over the last two years trying to make Fetch happen without throwing Marlena into the mix too. Why TIIC are clinging white-knuckled to this dud pairing baffles me no end, though I suspect it has to do with Tomsell trying to make Daniel--their personal Gary Stu--a tentpole character on the show. Ironically, they have a better chance of succeeding in that aim if they cut him loose from Jennifer, because these two bring out the worst in each other. Surely it couldn't be that hard to end the inFetchuation permanently and send both characters in different directions!

I can barely articulate how much I loved Ericole. I was truly fearful for their lives due to the fabulous acting of AZ and GV, and surprisingly the believable menace of Dr. Chyka. And then when Eric told Nicole he loved her, it was everything I'd hoped for, and given their situation, totally heartfelt, endearing, and lastly, absolutely beautiful. Well done Days. They might be your signature couple or as I like to call them "the little couple that could."



I agree with every word of this. It just goes to show that the old-fashioned supercouple style of writing still works when you have the actors and the chemistry to pull it off. The payoff is so fantastic when you take the time to build it like this. Just think, they haven't even kissed yet!! And I hope they continue to drag out every little beat. Today was such a great pay-off that I'm happy to wait for the kiss, sex, etc.
It's really strange to me that Eric/Nicole was written so their relationship moved at a snail's pace and I find it perfect then EJ/Abby are written so their relationships is zero to sixty in two seconds and I find it perfect (so far)too.
I agree that the pacing of each has been nearly perfect for their individual stories. I know there's been complaints that EJ and Abby basically had a few scenes and then wham, here's the sex. But for me, I saw enough build up, and frankly, "the it came out of nowhere attraction" works for me. Sometimes lightening does strike without warning. So I'm actually loving the hell out of both stories. I do think though at some point the pacing will shift, and we'll be looking at a swifter paced Ericole, nothing too too drastic, but faster, and things will slow down some for Ejabby. Not right now, thankfully (that would kill me! lol), but at some point.

I don't like them together either I'm just saying that it might help their popularity if Marlena got behind them lol. That's how they got the audience behind Mike and Carrie instead of Austin. Marlena gave them her blessing and the audience got on board. During the triangle with Philip and Brady when the show wanted to go with Brady they had Marlena and Brady reconcile and the audience got on board. It was a pattern of using Marlena to get folks behind people ad pairings the show wanted up push lol. Maybe I shouldn't give the writers any ideas, it's just funny but instead of using JJ which isn't working use Marlena which has worked in the past

In both those cases, Marlena was supporting her children. She wasn't propping -- not the way Dannifer/Fetch have been propped over the past 3 years.

Whoever was following Abby must have known something was going on because when they started taking pictures it looked like it was with an actual camera and not a cell phone. Most people don't go around carrying a camera so my guess is that someone hired this person. Whether it was Sami, Ej, or Abby herself I don't know but it doesn't seem likely that it would be Nick since he floated down the river where would he have come up with a camera?

I know I'm just saying at the crossroads of a triangle when they needed the audience to swing one way or the other they had Marlena pick the winning side and give her blessing which swung the popularity from Austin to Mike and Philip to Brady when the audience was torn and this might work for Dan and Jenn. If Marlena told Jenn that she and Dan belong together it might help get more support. Idk

Too many people have been on the Dannifer train for that to have any effect.

I have a feeling kate paid someone to take a picture of EJabby, because she had suspicious of EJ to be with abigail at Smith island or it could be sami .when sami sees EJabby in dimera mention she was shocked and she was pretending to be nice, but she wants a proof that's why she followed them to take a picture of them as a proof.
Well, if anyone can sniff out duplicity, it would be Kate. Her dilemma would be when or even if to use it, if she sees Sami sniffing around Lucas as I think she may from that scene the other day. I don't think Kate would want to make Sami a free agent then.

Why not. I've still got Marlena at the Bristen wedding on repeat. It was that good!

Fan of EJ+ABBY!

Actually, that Ben guy in casting,.. couldn't he be Chad? He certainly looks like he could play the role of Chad. It would really put EJABBY into another perspective with EJ dealing with Chad finding out on screen and having to deal with his brothers anger over it. And of course competition over Abbys affection perhaps?

I love to see brothers being on love with the same woman... I don't think we seen that on days. Of course, EJ isn't just any brother. And both are Dimeras. =) Love it. I can definitely see this play out once its revealed and the effects of it has been played out. Maybe Abby decides to make EJ envy by going back to Chad. After all EJ has always been very flirtatious around abby in front of Chad.
