Hate how these writers have to rewrite history. Anyone that's watched this show faithfully knows that John was always there for his son.
Didn't Jarlena send young Brady to boarding school? My memory could be playing tricks on me, but I vaguely remember Sorased Brady coming home from Boarding school angry and resentful toward Marlena. That is probably what they are referring to.
His sorased history was total nonsense. When he first came back he was resentful of both John and Marlena and especially of Belle. He called belle their golden child and was determined to destroy belle in their eyes. Then over night they changed it to him only hating Marlena. First they said he was away at baseball camp, then they changed it so that it was a boarding school. It was like a schizophrenic was writing. It was ridiculous.
Thanks for the reminder. I could not be sure. but I do remember a sorased Brady coming home from boarding school hating Marlena. I don't think he hated Belle though. Marlena believed he did because he kept bitching about Belle. I remember when belle got hurt, Marlena thought that Brady had hurt her or something. It thought it was realistic at the time because blended families do go through those issues from time to time.

I personally think Brady is just lashing out. He is angry at Jarlena because it turned out they were right about Kristen. I think he will come around eventually.

I wonder if Wilson will ever get a love scene like Ericole got today?
I thought the same thing. The answer is probably not. We only get afterglow with WilSon.

I still stand by my belief that Hope's going OTT because she fears that she'll become emotional if she doesn't. She's overcompensating to keep her feelings inside. And I think she's starting to get annoyed that everyone she's interviewed has tried to lie to her about something. I also think her guilt about putting off talking to Nick is driving her desire to solve the case.
That's why she has no business investigating this murder. It clouds her professional judgment and it makes her look bad. I have great respect for Rafe for recognizing that he's too close to this murder to be an objective detective. Hope has shown time and again that she's taking this too personally and it's clouding her objectivity. As a police officer you're there for the public not to assuage your guilt over your murdered cousin.
I would not give Rafe too much credit. It irritates me that he pressured Will to confess to Hope about the fight, yet he has yet to confess to Hope that he punched Nick himself. I don't see him volunteer any information that could incriminate him or his sister. Rafe had a strong motive to kill Nick too. He wanted to protect his sister.
I don't think Rafe had that much of a motive. If you ask me, the only person with a concrete motive is Gabi. Rafe didn't know anything about the blackmail stuff although he suspected something was wrong. I highly doubt that a seasoned law enforcement officer would murder Nick in this slopy way. But he might suspect his sister but I doubt that he'll throw Will under the bus to clear his sister.

I really enjoyed the ejallie scenes. It was such an unexpected treat. I love the way Ej comforted her as a loving caring stepdad. It makes sense considering that Ej raised Allie for the first year of her life. those scenes reminded me of the time she spent the night in Ej's arms as an infant when she was burning with fever. That was sweet and endearing. I love that Ej can be ruthless and cold blooded when needed, yet sweet and tender when it comes to his family.

I may be twisted, but I was cheering when Ej pulled his gun out and went after the hitman (shade of 2007 Ej). Love bad ass Ej Freaking Dimera. The best part about it was Sami not blinking and being totally fine with it. She fits quite nicely as a mobster wife. I always knew you had in you Mrs Dimera LOL. I got to give her credit, Sami has come a long way from the judgemental hypocrite she used to be when she was pretending to be a good girl. She has been embracing her inner Dimera and I am freaking loving it. I am enjoying Ejami swimming in the dark side while being an all american loving family. Multi Faceted Ejami rock!!.

I do think having Ejallie bonding today is setting it up for Ejami to leave town with her along with the other children. They showed us today how being around her siblings cheered her up and was the best therapy for her. I think they are going to have Allie spend half the year with Ejami and the other half in Salem with Lucas just like they did when Lucas was in China. We hardly see the kids anyway, so it won't make a difference.

I just realized that having Sami leave Allie yesterday was just a plot point so Ejallie could bond. I approve this message LOL.

Why the pic of Stan?
I wasn't watching when Sami was Stan. I've only read summaries of that, and I don't know the nuances.

I think he would.
Do you really think so Kay? Do you think Rafe would set-up or frame Will to protect his sister? He might go all douchey and abuse his authority, like the time he threatened the poor receptionist at the aborotion clinic or hit Will (or maybe he just pushed him), but I don't think he'll do anything more senister to Will. Chad maybe, but not Will.

Yes, he did hate belle when he first came back. I didn't make that up. And actually belle didn't much care for Brady either.

And I don't care any more if Brady comes around AGAIN. It has gotten really really old.

I like Sami scheming but I don't like her when she's ordering hits and showing little regard for human life.

When AS announced she was leaving, I was disappointed because I like Sami, and let's face it, Will's survival is tied to Sami to some extend. But the artist formerly known as Sami Brady is just so unlikable right now, I just can't wait for her to leave before the writers completely and irredeemably destroy her.

I'm starting to wonder if Allie witnessed Nick being shot and repressed the memory. Allie was with Jordan that evening, but maybe Jordan got distracted by a phone call, and Allie wandered off into the park for a few minutes and saw Nick being shot. DAYS is really focusing on Allie's PTSD, so I feel like there's going to be more to the story than meets the eye.

My prediction: Another one of Allie's balloons will pop, and Allie will equate the popping sound with the sound of Nick being shot. (Nick's killer used a silencer, but the gun still made a slight popping sound each time the bullets were fired.)
Yep, I mentioned the same thing up thread. But since that'd actually make for a GOOD story, they'll probably go with something idiotic and trite. :drunk:

I am not really a Lumi fan, but that was kind of cool how Lucas had six months worth of Sami's texts. I like how Hope gets to business and says she is calling the phone company

I've already stated that I don't like Theresa/Jen Lilley, but they have really done her a disservice in the way they've "integrated" her into the cast. Her main scene partners are day players. There's no one in her age range. Her relationship with Brady is just about as ridiculous as Brady's last relationship, and that's probably her summer story. I realize that not everyone dislikes her, but I don't see where they've given us any reason TO like her. Aside from those family scenes last November (which turned out to be a farce), there's just nothing. I do not get it.

I thought it was weird having EJ witness and comforting Allie instead of Sami since I thought the whole point with Allie having nightmares would be for Sami to be feeling quilty instead she went from feeling quilty to giving EJ advice about how to get rid of corpes. It was also weird having Allie ask if EJ would be there when buying new ballons like he was her new hero. I donīt think they are setting it up for EJ and Allie to bond so she would go with Ejami if anything they are setting it up for Allie to find the Ejabby picture and realize he isnīt the hero she thinks he is and then wants to go live with Lucas.

Anyway I did like Sami becoming a good mobster wife and EJ looks hot when he is dark.

I understand that this section of your post is ... your personal likes/preferences. I cannot argue with that, because each person here is perfectly entitled to like whatever they like. I accept and respect this.

I just want to go on record to say my personal likes/preferences are completely the opposite.

Personally, I don't find it hot when *any* character is dark. I find it to be a turn-off.

And I will *never* accept Sami as a "mobster wife".

For the first time in days, there were more things for this fan to like than dislike.

I ate up Ericole with a spoon even with Shredgate looming to destroy them. Their scenes were good, and thank goodness they went the making love route for their first time instead of a wham, bam, thank you ma'am slam against the wall.

I enjoyed seeing Lucas tying the knot tighter and tighter around his own neck and hope this is only the beginning of storylines for BD. I am sooo waiting for a story for him, his daughter, Sheryl (if she returns), and Kate.

I had to happily pinch myself to see that ALLIE/ALLY is getting a storyline and not the usual Johnny. It's about time they put this young actress to work.

JJ showed that classic snark that made me his fan from day one. I miss that JJ and want to see more of him, preferably away from Paige.

John was back. My only problem with his scenes is that the writers always make him stand there and take Brady's smack. I know Brady was gone briefly in the past when younger, but don't most of the youngsters disappear when the show wants to age them? Brady Whining Black needs to chill with the accusations.

And last but certainly not least, the episode was nearly "Daniel" mention free. His name was only uttered once.

I tried to watch some today, but I've discovered that my new obstacle to enjoying this show is most definitely Theresa/Jen Lilley. I've tried to like or at least enjoy her, but it's just not happening. If Jen could just tweet for the show, I think that'd be a better fit all the way around. Meanwhile, I continue to not understand a damn thing that happens between Brady and John. I can't even watch James Scott anymore. I expect Ali to suck and I know she isn't capable of better, but it's beyond the point of being downright embarrassing watching him now. And finally, the dialogue has just gotten plain lazy. Marlena's dialogue (I didn't see the Gabi scenes) didn't even make sense, and the timelines mentioned throughout the show were off.

Notice I didn't mention Ericole, because why frickin' bother?
I FFed through nearly the entire show. Indifference is the ultimate insult. Thanks writers, for really WTFing up a once entertaining and great soap.

The evidence crap was stupid and uncalled for, but today's scenes were great! Nicole tried to tell him the truth, but Eric was just saying all the right things and doing the right things....can't blame the poor girl for that! He was ALL OVER HER!

No couple on this show right now isn't tainted so why such a fuss about Ericole? They are not perfect, and I never expected them to be. So, if this was all to just get Nicole pregnant and Eric be the Father...bring it!!!





This problem is they are ruining Nicole. She has always been one of my favorites and I don't like her very much right now. I normally root for her even when she is in the wrong, but this time is different. They were building up a really good story and totally ruined it. Not only does Nicole irritate me now, but Eric has been a total bore. He was more interesting when he was a priest. They need to fix this crap!





And maybe this next arc will be better, because there is no way it could be any worse! I hate what they did to Nicole as well, but it's not like they can rewrite it now. Just have to move forward and pray it's gets better!
Once burned, twice shy. I can't even get myself to get excited over the pictures. Anytime the writing does improve, there is a history of that "improvement" being inconsistent. It's going to take an awful lot for me to trust them. I can enjoy individual, sporadic opportunities, but since I really like character development and not plot devices, I can't get myself to enjoy this. I don't even think AZ's acting is up to par like it was. VERY disappointed.
My problem is that Nicole looks like she's carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders when she should be happy right now. Instead of moping and being weepy all the time, she should come clean once and for all and really remove what's standing in the way of her happiness, not the evidence but her secret. Instead of acting like a happy bride to be around Eric, she looks like she's always about to jump out of her skin. I still like Ericole and want them to get their happy ending but this beating around the bush has got to end. Nice love scene tho !I agree, AZ's acting is kind of off a bit lately.
