She'd be better if they got her out of his orbit and used her on better storylines. |

I'm getting worried that Nick might target Tad. If Nick realizes that Tad has a crush on Gabi, and Nick sees Tad and Gabi hanging out together, then Nick might view Tad as a rival for Gabi's affections. On the other hand, if Nick does injure Tad, and Tad ends up in the hospital, this could be a way for Tad to get a storyline. And maybe Tad's sibling or parent could come to Salem to visit him in the hospital. My dream storyline is for Vargas to be Tad's long-lost father. :wub: |

I think the original charge was the shoplifting and JJ was told to stay clean until his hearing.That's why Cole was mentioned today with him getiing the max sentence. But you're probably right,JJ could have done away with Daniel and gotten away with it. |

Please note: This report is not to be copied and pasted to any other sites. Please link only. Link to summary archive: http://www.network54.com/Forum/358635/ Director: Albert Alarr Scriptwriter: Jeanne Marie Ford Segment 1: Jen jogs through the square and then stops. She imagines she sees Theresa and Dan walking - Dan with his arm around Theresa's shoulders and they're smiling at each other. Dan rushes into his apt. calling out Nicole's name. She comes out of her room. He asks if she got his message. Nicole - Yeah, you said you needed my help. Dan - I think there is something we may be able to do to help Eric after all. Eric is kneeling in front of the altar praying as a figure in black moves behind him. Rory is now at the house. He wonders why he didn't get in on the excellent adventure to trip up that skank Theresa. JJ tells him he didn't miss anything. But I'm still counting on you for the next part if it goes that far. Rory - So what's the latest. JJ - Bev left Theresa a little present at the hospital. Now we've got to make sure she takes the bait. Theresa is working when a girl drops off some mail for her. Theresa - Amy, yesterday I got some mail meant for someone else. Amy will take it to the right person. Theresa - I re-routed it myself. Any idea how that might happen? Amy - The people I work with down in the basement are barely functional. Theresa - So they find stuff that's fallen out of envelopes and take their best guess as to who it should go to? Amy - Exactly, totally random. Amy leaves. Theresa - Alright. She pulls out the cheque. Somebody out there is finally taking care of me. T knocks over Rafe's cane as he whizzes by his table. Rafe apologises. I can't wait to get rid of this thing. T - Last time you were on crutches and the time before that you were in a wheelchair. I'd say you're doing pretty good. How's Gabi? Rafe - She's great. The christening was beautiful. T - But Nick showing up I'm sure flipped her out. Rafe - What, Nick Fallon was there? T - Yeah, you didn't know? Rafe - He's back in Salem? Gabi has a nightmare. Nick is leading her blindfolded. She hears the river. He takes the blindfold off. He thinks it's so serene here, a perfect spot for a picnic. Gabi thinks it's too cold for a picnic. Nick agrees. Probably to cold for a swim too like it was the night you pushed me in the river. One way to find out. He pushes her in the river. Then he reaches out his hand to help her but once he gets hold of her he holds her head underwater. She wakes up. Julie and Nick are at the pub. Julie - So is Gabi receptive to the idea of being friends again. Nick - If Gabi gives me another chance I think she's going to be really surprised at how much I've changed. Eric hears something and turns around. It's not a figure in black but in brown. Brother Timothy pulls back his hood. Eric introduces himself. I understand you're going to be my confessor on this retreat. BT - Yes and I understand we have a great deal to talk about. Nicole thought Dan said all of Eric's test results were destroyed. Dan - Yeah but what slipped my mind during all this craziness is that I had compiled a list of scientists. There are very few PHD's and MD's that have done work with the compounds used to drug Eric. He shows her the list. Nicole - Shouldn't we give this to the police? Dan - No, we know that Stefano has eyes and ears on the inside and after what happened with you and Eric I don't want to tip anyone off that we're back in the hunt on this. This is going to be risky. Are you ready to be involved? Do you want to be involved. Nicole - Off course. At work our computer has an IP address that's totally masked so we can cover our sources and keep them all confidential. We also have other search tools. Let's just say the NSA has nothing on Titan TV. Dan - Leave it to Victor. Nicole - Only one teeny tiny little problem; I'm not sure I work there anymore. Rory - So what if Theresa doesn't take the bait? JJ - If she figures out I set her up she's going to come to my hearing and make sure I spend the foreseeable future in jail. Bev - Which she threatens to do every day. Rory - You know that I have your back and all but are you sure it's worth it. JJ - Let me put it to you this way. If we get Theresa out of the way everybody wins. Theresa stares at the cheque and then realises she's late. She stuffs the papers back in a drawer and leaves. Julie - I'm sure I don't have to tell you not to push too hard with Gabi. Nick - No you don't. Julie - Not that you asked for my advice. Nick - I appreciate your perspective. Julie - He said so diplomatically. Nick - I'm learning. Trust me, Gabi is the one who gets to decide what kind of relationship we're going to have this time around. Gabi comes out of her room and finds a note from the guys saying they've taken Ari out. She recalls part of her nightmare. Rafe knocks on the door. She opens the door and goes into his arms. Segment 2: Gabi - I guess you heard. Rafe did. I thought he was gone for good. So did Gabi. Rafe - So he just showed up at the church? Gabi - After you left. Rafe - I should have stayed. Gabi - You didn't know you were going to miss out on all the fun. There's nothing you could have done. Rafe holds up his cane - You know this doubles as an excellent weapon. Gabi says she's okay. Rafe - Is he sticking around or not? Does it depend on whether he gets what he wants; you two to be friends again. Dr. Chyka comes into a cabin? hotel suite? and sits down. Finally a little rest for the wicked. Dan - What do you mean you don't know if you have a job. Nicole - Miles and I got into a little disagreement but don't worry, I'll take care of it. Dan - When you say things like that; that's when I worry. Nicole - Well I didn't think I was going to go back there but I'll do it for Eric. Dan - Every time I think things are hopeless ... what do they say ... when God closes one door Nicole Walker just finds a way to bust it down. He's going to change. I'll see you at the station. Nicole opens the door to leave and Theresa is standing there. At the Horton house the teens are getting ready to leave. Rory - Hey, shouldn't whatever needs to be done involve ditching school. JJ hears the door close. Hey Mom, I thought you went to work. Jen looks around - Clearly. JJ - We're just going to school. Jen - Can you just stay here for one minute please. JJ - We were just on our way to class. Jen - Let me rephrase that. You will stay here for one minute and you two will go. Bev - Mrs. Deveraux we were just ... Jen - What? Bonding over Hemingway again. Bev and Rory leave. Jen - How could I let myself believe that anything had changed. Nicole - May I help you? Theresa - It's Nicole isn't it. I've seen on the news. You look so much better in person. Nicole - Theresa, you're exactly how I imagined you'd be. Theresa - I guess Daniel didn't tell you I was coming over this morning. Dan comes to the door. Theresa - Did you forget about our breakfast meeting? Dan - No. Nicole - Yes. Dan tells Nicole he'll catch up with her a little later. Nicole leaves. Theresa asks if she came at a bad time. Dan has had a crazy morning but he has a few minutes. How about breakfast at the Brady Pub. Theresa doesn't want to have this conversation with her Grandma lurking; it's personal. I was hoping we could stay here. Segment 3: BT hopes Eric could sleep. I'm sure compared to Salem you find our accommodations rather Spartan. Eric - Compared to the mission in Africa this is luxurious. BT - I know it was there that you decided you wanted to become a priest; after all you'd witnessed. Eric - Yes that's right. BT - The Bishop asked me to read your file before we spoke but what I'm having trouble understanding is after month's of maintaining your innocence, fighting to be reinstated, why now have you come to question your vows? Nicole joins Miles at a table in the club and thanks him for meeting her. Miles orders more drinks from T and adds a few smart remarks pertaining to Nicole. Nicole - Do you want an apology or not? Miles - Actually I don't know if I do. Nicole - Of course you do or you wouldn't be here. You need me more than I need you so do you want to hear what I have to say or should I go straight to the competition? Dan says it's probably better they're not going out for breakfast because he only has a few minutes. I'm sorry, there's something Nicole and I need to take care of together. Theresa hopes she didn't upset her by showing up at his doorstep. Dan - Why would you? Theresa - I've been working hard so I'm behind on the hospital gossip. I thought you were just roommates but are you together, together? Jen rants about Bev and Rory being a bad influence - JJ's words, and that he wasn't going to hang out with them. Yet here we are again. Have you forgotten your sentencing hearing is tomorrow. If the judge doesn't see that you've changed you are going to jail. Have you forgotten that? JJ - Of course I haven't forgotten. That's all I can think about. Julie - I fought so hard to get you out of that prison and then when you really needed me, I wasn't even there. Nick - You didn't know. Julie - I didn't ask. I was cruising off the coast of South America and you were forced to look in the eyes of that man who did such horrific ... Nick - It's okay. You can say it. He raped me. I was too ashamed to tell anyone, even you. Now I know that it wasn't my fault and it was brutal and totally unprovoked. Gabi - Who told you about what Nick said about us being friends? Rafe - Don't get upset. It was T. I had to pry it out of him. Gabi - And how did he know that? Rafe - Gabi, there are a lot of people in this town that care about you. They do not want to see you hurt by that S.O.B. again. And for the record how the hell does he ... he just decides to show up at Arianna's christening after everything that happened! Gabi - He said he didn't know. He was there to see Hope. Rafe - So then he sees you and decides to have a little talk ... Gabi - No. It was afterwards. I was on my way to tell you what happened and I saw him at the Town Square. Rafe - So he was following you. Gabi - No, he just ran into me. He says he wants to put everything behind us and that's what I want too. Rafe - Where have I heard that before! Gabi - He's getting professional help now. Rafe - It's going to take a lot more than a psychiatrist to put his head back on straight. You know that. He was screwed up before he went to prison. Gabi - I know. I promise I'm not going to get involved with him. Rafe - I understand that's what you want but what if he doesn't let you make that choice. Remember your talk about being friends. Remember how that went. He didn't exactly hear it that way, did he? What if you hadn't found out that he had set up the whole New York thing; that he intended to be your roommate so you could live happily ever after! I am not waiting for him to change. I am going to make sure he stays out of your life for good. Segment 4: Dan - I'm sure you're eager to use the limited time we have to talk about the reason you're here. Theresa - Yeah, I just didn't want to cause problems for you guys. Dan - Nicole and I are just friends. I have so much on my plate I don't have time for any other type of relationship. Theresa feels the exact same way. She has to feel that connection before letting someone get close. Being an ex-substance abuser sometimes I can be really reserved. But I wouldn't even be on the road to recovery if it wasn't for you. Dan is glad she's committed to sobriety but the hard part is on her. Theresa - I mean I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. I keep wracking my brain thinking of ways that I could thank you. Seeing Brady where I was a few months ago; it made me realise that what I needed to do was pay it forward. He's never really been nice to me but he was so messed up. Dan is glad she called him. So is Theresa. It's really good to give back. We were a really good team, weren't we? Dan - I think there's something that you and I need to get straight between us. JJ - Believe me I don't want to go to jail and end up like cousin Nick. I don't want you and Abigail to worry about me. I want to go to college. I want to have a good future. Jen - That is so great! If you're so concerned about what's going to happen to you why would you jeopardise that by hanging out with them! JJ - Do you see me hanging out with other kids at school? Do you see me going to football games? Do you see me going to dances? That's not my thing plus everyone at school thinks I'm this loser druggie; the kid who smashes windows. But I don't care because they are not my friends but Bev and Rory are. They have stuck by me even though I'm not doing drugs and they're still doing ... Jen - Yes, they are still doing drugs. Do you see my problem JJ? JJ - But they do not do it front of me. They get it. They understand. I don't think I'll ever get you to trust me again alright but after all the lies I told you if I were you I'd probably feel the same way. But this is not a lie. And I know I'm down to my last chance and I know damn well what would happen to me if I screw it up. Julie - As you said, it was unprovoked brutality and I'm sorry, I didn't mean to dredge up the worse memories of your life. Nick - You didn't. It's something that I think about everyday. Now I know when something like that happens you don't try to bury it. You don't try to forget it. You keep it at the forefront and that way you're always close to dealing with it. Julie - I'm so proud of you darling. Gabi - Rafe, promise me that you're not going to go after Nick. Nothing good could come from that. Rafe doesn't agree. You told him you just wanted to be friends but that didn't get through his thick skull so maybe if he talks to your brother, the cop ... Gabi - He just wants us to be friends, that's it. Rafe - Why? What reason does he have to be anywhere near you? Gabi - I don't know but for me, please don't! Rafe - Why are you so adamant about this? Gabi - I don't want another scene. Rafe - You want him to keep harassing you? Gabi - No I don't. Rafe - Is there something you're not telling me. Cue f/b of Gabi hitting Nick with the rock. Segment 5: Gabi - You know the one thing I finally got through my thick skull about Nick; that you don't want to get him angry. Now that I got him to be okay with what I did to him ... Rafe - What you did to him? Gabi - When we ended things the first time I should have just ignored him. If I had done that none of this would ever have happened. Rafe - You can't blame yourself for this. Gabi - I'm just saying that's what I want to do this time. Eventually he'll get the message. Rafe - And if he doesn't? Gabi - Nick is just someone I want to forget about okay. I want to move on with my life. I just want to be better. Promise me that you are just going to leave him alone. Rafe - I promise you that I will protect you and that beautiful little baby of yours. And I'm going to make sure you never have to worry about Nick again. Gabi - Okay. They hug. Dan - It's great that we were able to work together and help Brady out and even better that you are taking charge of your life. There is one thing you and I have in common. We both just said we're not ready for that type of relationship right now. So when it comes to you and me you know why this isn't a good idea right now or just ever. Theresa - I do. You've been saying that all along. It's just that I'm so unclear about what happened that night. I mean how you got to my place, what happened between us. If you're uncomfortable talking about it I understand. I just hope eventually that you'll be able to give me what I need. Theresa's phone rings. Dan hands it to her. It's Anne. Seems she thinks you're at the office. If she thought you were here ... well you know how she feels. Theresa is hoping they'll be able to talk again soon. I'm still unclear about things; you understand. Dan does. He opens the door for her to leave. Jen - It's all going to be okay. JJ - I just have to get through one more day; then the rest of my life, I know. Jen - You better get to school. JJ - You know what I wish. When I came back from boarding school and I pulled all that crap on Daniel when it wasn't even about him; I just wish that I could do something to take that all back so we didn't have to be this way with each other. Jen - You can't change what you've done; you can only change what you do. JJ - Exactly. Eric - I think it's made me doubt, question my vocation, everything. BT - Are you sure it has? And now I understand that in the wake of this incident you've come to develop feelings for another woman. Eric - I haven't acted on them but I can't deny them either. BT - Do you think forsaking your vows would be the solution to this dilemma? Eric - I don't know. BT - Or would that be too easy? After all, you're a priest forever. Eric - Yes, well, but if I'm not allowed to serve ... BT - That brings us to the reason why you were removed from your duties. Tell me about Kristen DiMera and what you claim happened between you. Segment 6: Dan is in Nicole's office. How did it go with Miles? Nicole - I'm here, right. That guy lives and dies by ratings and I'm the only one bringing them in. They talk TV for a second or two. Nicole informs him that she's eliminated another name off the list. Dan - I never gave you a copy. Nicole - Photographic memory. This guy's been in prison for almost a year. Dan - 5 more to go. I'm afraid internet searches are only going to get us so far. I just don't want to get Eric's hopes up again after all the false starts. Nicole - Well he's unreachable anyway. Dan - Why? Nicole - He's away on a spiritual retreat. BT - I know this is difficult and I'm not making any accusations ... Eric - Really? BT - As much as you try to substantiate your claims you really haven't been able to produce any hard evidence. Eric - Do you know who Kristen DiMera is? Do you know what she's done! I think the facts of my case support everything I'm saying. BT - What about the video? Eric - What about it. BT - You understand how this scandal has been so painful for the Dioceses. Your parishioners have not only seen the act Eric but how very willing you seemed. Eric - Willing! How in God's name can you say that. Just stop it. Dan - Eric didn't mention ... Nicole - It was kind of sudden. Dan - I hope he's not giving up on looking for the truth here and proving his innocence. Nicole - I don't think so but after that near death experience ... she's staring at the screen ... what is this link? Dan - You're not changing the subject. What is going on here? Is Eric okay? Nicole - It's not my place to say anything. Dan - You were just about to say ... Nicole - Daniel, look at this. Look, look! Jen and Theresa literally bump into each near the elevators at the hospital. Theresa signals this sketchy looking guy to hang back. Theresa makes a snide remark that she's betting Jen is really regretting replacing her with her daughter. Theresa sees a Valentine's Day poster. She needles Jen about starting to think about her date should be for that day. I know I am. Theresa leaves. Jen gets a call from Liam. When T sees Gabi come into the club he runs up to her and asks if she talked to her brother. I'm sorry, I didn't know that he didn't know Nick was back in town. Gabi - It's okay. I know you're concerned and I appreciate that. T - I served the dude last night. He was as freaky as ever. What's the deal with that scar? Why is he back in town? Gabi - I don't know. I know that we said we were going to get together but maybe we should wait. T - Are you getting back with Nick? Gabi - No I'm not. I just need a little time. Things are complicated, do you understand? T - Absolutely. Rafe sees Nick in the square and calls out to him. Nick heads to the park. Rafe follows. Nick finally hears Rafe and stops. It's good to see you up and around. Rafe - Yeah? You might not think so when I'm through with you. Segment 7: BT - I'm not here to pass judgement. I'm here to make sure you do a thorough examination of your conscience however painful that might be. Eric - My conscience? If you don't believe I was victimized after I almost died then ... BT - This issue isn't what I believe, it's what you believe. Eric - I know what happened. BT - I'm not talking about the event. I'm talking about what was in your heart. Are you sure your devotion to your vows was absolute. Think carefully before you answer that because it certainly sounds like that's no longer the case. Nicole and Dan find an image of Dr. Chyka. That's the guy who tried to kill Eric and me. Dan says it's Dr. Jacob Chyka. Chyka is in front of his laptop. He's not happy to see a report that Eric and Nicole survived the attempt on their lives. Rory and Bev meet up with JJ in front of the pub. JJ - What's wrong? Bev - What's the name of the judge on your case? JJ - Judge Goldberger. Bev - He got Cole's case too. My mom just told me that he got the maximum sentence. In fact the judge wanted to make an example of him. JJ - That's what he said at my trial too. Rory - But he also said that he'd give you a second chance. JJ - If my plan blows up, Theresa's going to blow my second chance to hell. The sketchy guy is in Theresa's office. She tells him if this doesn't work she can't pay him. She goes to the printer and picks up a hospital ID with her picture and Abigail's name on it. She smiles. I'm going to have to find a special way to thank you for this. Nick - I'm sure you're wondering why I'm back here in Salem. Rafe - Yeah, no because I already know what you're going to say. That I've got nothing to worry about and neither does Gabi because gosh you've changed. Well guess what. I heard it all before. I sure as hell didn't believe it then, I don't believe it now. Nick - What do you want from me? Rafe - Nothing at all. No contact. You don't talk to my sister or her baby girl. You don't text, or write or call. You don't go near them. Am I clear? Nick - I think that's up to Gabi. He turns to leave. Rafe falls when he tries to go after him. Nick looks around to see if anyone else is there. |

I'm sure Nicole and Daniel could let Hope, Abe or Rafe in on the mission without compromising the secrecy. Not keen on them going away with nobody knowing about it. (Where's Bo when you need him). |

I don't like the underscore to these Nicole Daniel scenes. That's Days' beginning to fall in love underscore. I do not like it. Oh Dammit I actually liked that little interaction between Dan and Nicole with Theresa at the door. It was cute. Edited by concerned, Jan 30 2014, 05:42 PM.

Love Susan Seaforth Hayes' new haircut. Julie has calmed down too, lol. Got a kick of Nicole's crack about the ratings and beating the show with the chefs! :blulaugh: I'm not totally following JJ's plan regarding Theresa but I like him with Bev and Rory. I can't get mad at Jennifer though for being upset about JJ hanging out with them considering his court date is coming up. |

He's a bit of an aggressive mentor/monk/counsellor. I don't think I'd feel particularly open about confiding with him. ( Marco would have done a better job). |
