Did anyone understand why EJ looked as if he was about to cry after Abby left and he agreed with her that he was a liar? I kept waiting for his expression to change to some "yeah I pulled one over on you" but he continued to look sad and about to cry.
I think he was sad because he realized that he has to kill Abby now too. YES! FINALLY!
No really, I didn't think he looked sad. I thought he looked concern that Abby didn't buy his lie. She's threatened to tattle a few times now and I'm sure he's worried she will feel a need to clear her conscience.
I didn't see sadness either, just an acknowledgement to himself that he is in fact a liar who is having to keep lying to cover up the mistake that could ruin his entire life.
Well he should know by now that that doesn't work well.
Hasn't that story played out for him multiple times already.
I may be a pollyanne, but I think GG still plays Rafe as recovering from a traumatic brain injury. He delivers Rafe's lines slower and has Rafe reacting slower to everything since his accident.
IMO, he's always acted that slow and looked that tired. And the guy has no personality that I can see.
I'll take tired looking but smouldering hot Rafe's acting over EJ's flailing arms and ott theatrics any day. Rafe has a caring kindness and gentleness about him that is very sexy!!! :wub2::wub::blowkiss:
How did my comment degenerate into a comparison to Elvis? :shrug:
Will was at the diner with Abigail and ran out and met Sonny at the town square when he told him about the hearing. But he told Hope he was returning a book at the library and then went to the town square. Why can't the writers be consistent?
I hated the way Hope looked and talked to Will like he was guilty.
Hope's talking to EVERYONE like they're guilty. So far, neither Sonny nor Will has given Hope a reason to believe their stories. Sonny was trying to deflect Hope's simple questions like "Did you see Nick last night?" & Will hesitated on "Do you have access to a gun?".
I didn't see sadness either, just an acknowledgement to himself that he is in fact a liar who is having to keep lying to cover up the mistake that could ruin his entire life.
but why the hell would that be news to him? It's not.....I saw a mix of sadness and resignation that the truth about him and Abby might actually come out if Hope continues to dig into Nick's murder.
his sadness comes in right at the end of the Ejabby scene....before that he's creepy
Thanks for the clip. EJ comes off looking like a father's worst nightmare, he's gross. I agree with you LL, he does look like he wants to kiss her. However, I didn't see sadness at all at the end except for being upset he failed.
Seriously. Today's scenes just reminded me why Ejabby grossed me out so much. Abby looks like a young woman being manipulated by some creepy dad of one of her friends. Ewwwwww
imo, Kate Mansi is doing some really good work with this material
That conversation with EJ that she had gave me the creeps and I'm a huge EJabby fan. I shivered and I'm not even sure why?

what impression did you get? That he's a liar because he says he doesn't want anything to do with her? or he's a liar as he told her he loved his fiancee but truly misses being with Abby? IDK...that scene could be about anything....it's not the first time that Abby has told him he is a liar and clearly she knows he is as he's still lying about the affair...so she knows he's a first class liar....now why would Ej realizing Abby thinks that now bother him?
Erhmm.. he is lying to his fiancee about tones of stuff.. knowing what Kristen did etc etc .. lying about an affair he had and keeping the facade up. He lies about everything.
I think that is what she meant,...
.. so yes, he is a world class lair.. no huge secret there (for us viewers).. and EJ agreed. LOL :blulaugh:
I think EJ might getting tired of having to lie all the time,.. who knows.
I think his gentleness is extremely sexy too. There is an appealing masculinity is his manner. He has this understated tough guy stance, but such expressive eyes to the soft heart within. A winning combination for me. :wub2:
Rafe is my favorite Male Character! He is handsome, and a gentleman. He is the best husband material on the show right now. Maybe not money wise but for loyalty and caring and patience and stuff. And who do they put him with? JORBORE. Sorry, I do not like the character, have no interest in the character, have just become annoyed to the highest degree with the character. And since she ditched the glasses, she looks like she is squinting all of the time. If they keep the character, put her with Eric. They can be boring together. Nicole is wasted with Eric. With someone like Rafe she could still get in a little trouble and he would forgive and bail her out. I can not see a long future with Nicole and Eric together. I would like Rafe better with Nicole or even Hope. How much older than Rafe would Hope be? They look cute together. As for Rafe acting tired and slow, I always thought he acted like a cowboy type. Those cowboy types act lazy, tired, and talk slow until you need them not to.
Aw I'm sorry you don't like Jordan I think she fits Rafe they remind me of Lily and Cane from Y&R however I wouldn't mind him & Nicole either :hug:

I got the impression that he wasn't happy with himself as a man.......that he wasn't proud to be the type of man who would lie and hire a hitman. Remember the EJ who wanted to change so that his children would be proud that they were a DiMera? Seems like he was longing to be that man.
I agree with this,.. I think that is bugging him big time. He has become a person he didn't want to be for his children. Well, that happens when you have a fiancee called Sami Brady. :whistle:
Because love sometimes DOES hit you right over the head...
As much of a not fan of EJ as I am, I will say that I will miss Elope scenes! KA & JS played really well opposite each other (especially with that undertone of sexual attractedness). I don't think there will be an Elope scene that will outdo the talk in the rectory where EJ kissed Hope's cheek & her knee unlocked. lol.
I think he was sad because he realized that he has to kill Abby now too. YES! FINALLY!
No really, I didn't think he looked sad. I thought he looked concern that Abby didn't buy his lie. She's threatened to tattle a few times now and I'm sure he's worried she will feel a need to clear her conscience.
I think he definitely looked sad at the end, sort of resigning himself to what might come....I think he does wonder if Abby's guilt will get to her and she'll end up telling Hope about the affair, that would tie not only Abby with motive but also EJ...and then his world will fall apart...but I think he also looked sad...but right before that he looked rather creepy as fuck...at a point there I thought he would fuck her again to keep her quiet this time...as he was getting really close, almost kissing close....it's his MO...not the first time he does something to keep their trap shut....
Well I just found out what that looked was about. It was because he was lying to Abby......get your hands on the new SOD. ^o)
Yeah I heard he tells her about the hit man...I like the fact that he tells her in a way

One day perhaps,.. if James ever return from his traveling and talking it easy period.. LOL :P Oh and Aiden and Hope is not an item.. or maybe they could let KA play Greta as Hope for a short while.. LOL

LMAO. Not even Charles Shaugenssy came off as creepy becoming obsessed with his daughter's friend in that Lifetime Movie.
^^ I agree FS and GW have better chemistry than Chandlers version of Wilson. I loved Chandler's Will and I loved Wilson then but Guy and Freddie have better chemistry in my opinion. While I get the negative comments about Guys "blue steel" looks, I actually think he's a great actor doing a good job with his material. Not really getting the Guy hate but I hate Daniel so it is what it is. Lol. Guy was a worthy recast and if you don't enjoy him please know it could've been WAY worse!
I knew right away that Will realized that the gun had been fired, without any cheesy dialogue that said "Oh my god, the gun's been fired" that would have ruined the mystery.
Lol, see I didn't get that at all and would've wanted the dialogue for that :blulaugh:

It's a rare smart move from EJ who's been pretty dumb lately. After today, he knows Abby thinks he put out the hit on Nick to shut him up about the affair. So now that he knows his hitman wasn't the actual killer, the smart thing to do is to admit he did put out the hit but that it didn't work out, so that she's less likely to blab about her suspicions.
I found it interesting that you could see that Hope had no idea that Nick was being that awful to Will again. Her facial expressions and demeanor (she at up straighter) clearly changed for those few seconds when Will was telling her just exactly what Nick pressured Gabi to do. But then it was back to business with the rapid fire questioning. Hope needed to hear what a dick Nick was imo, now lets tell Julie and Maggie please.
Question: Why is Hope mostly backburned and were left with Jennifer? I don't get it.
I totally believe Will is innocent and I totally believe that he thinks Sonny did it ... he looked worried when Hope said she talked to him.
I lmao when Ben referred to Maggie and Julie as 'a couple of aunties'.....I like Ben.
Poor Abigail, black stockings with shorts in the spring? The wardrobe people should be fired imo.
I totally think that Sonny thinks Will did it, and Will thinks Sonny did it. Yesterday, Sonny was wiping prints off the gun that he thought were Will's (Gabis!) and today, Will got cagey and upset when he heard Sonny was questioned. I hope this leads to some good angst between them.
Yes, this is the type of drama and angst I was hoping for for WilSon too. :)
I know I might get some dislikes for saying this, but this whole Dicole/Jeneric sl is sucking the life out of the rest of the sl's going on today. And I thought Jen and Eric were cousins, gross if the ptb's pair them up....just ewww.
I won't be surprised if writers change Eric and Jennifer's history as cousins to become a couple .Look at what they did to Theresa and brady they changed their history as a cousins now they're two druggy and alcoholic who don't have nothing but sex and drugs. I hate what writers did to my favorite characters and the show. They make dr tan a super hero savior,police detective or god that he allows to grabbed nicole's hand so hard, yelling at her or go after Liam to kill him. I loathed fetch and I'm sick of him abusing women or sleeping with all his patients. Can we have new writers to get rid of Taniel and let us enjoy every characters on the show for god sakes?
They aren't cousins.
