Blake kinda talked about that in his interview with MF. He played it like the first shot just startled him and he didn't know what was happening, like he'd gotten hit with something that hurt him so he turns around to see what the hell was going on and that's when he gets shot a second and third time from the same direction as the first. He looks down, sees that he is bleeding profusely, and that's when he realized that he's been shot and is dying. Pretty much this means that there was only one shooter that was standing in the same place the whole time but because he turned around, he got shot in the back and the front.
It also means that, even though not everybody was a fan of Nick, Days lost a damn fine actor when he left, imo.
Re: the bolded...I'm not sure how the way that Blake Berris played that scene means that he's a "damn fine actor". That's how I'd react to getting shot from behind, then getting shot two more times in the front, too, and I'm not even an actor. It's just common sense, IMO.
I've seen a few soap deaths/injuries by gunshot in the past that looked nowhere as realistic as Nick's, imo. I appreciate the fact that obviously Blake had thought through the scene, unlike some other actors, and wanted to make it look as good as possible. That being said, I think that Blake is a great actor for quite a few reasons and his death scene is just one of them. I am not a Nick fan but I really like Blake as an actor. I know that you have expressed your distaste for him and his character in the past and it's cool to agree to disagree.
Don't get me wrong -- I'm not criticizing your opinion that he's a "damn fine actor" itself. I clearly disagree with it, but it is still your opinion, and you are certainly entitled to it. I just don't think that particular example does anything to support your argument that he's a "damn fine actor". If I get hit from behind with something, I'm going to turn around to find the source of the impact. That's only natural. If I then get hit two more times in the torso, I'm going to look down to see what I was hit with. Again, that's only natural. I don't see how that could not occur to any actor, frankly. Beyond that, though, Blake Berris' story doesn't really add up, based on the way that you described it and the earlier quote that Kaha provided from (what I assume was) that same interview. (I'll reiterate here that I didn't read the interview, since I'm not a fan of the actor.) If this was really all just his decision, as opposed to something that he was directed to do in the script or in talks with the director, that doesn't fit with his other claim that he was told to point to his killer and he had to drag the killer's identity out of people so that he would know who to point toward. If the reaction to his shooting was really left up to him to decide -- meaning that he could have chosen to take all three shots from behind, but he didn't because he's a "damn fine actor" -- then there's no way that the writers and directors could have guaranteed that Nick would have seen his killer, and if he hadn't seen his killer, then he wouldn't have been able to then attempt to point to that killer in the next scene. I find it far more likely that the writers and directors called for Nick to turn around after the impact of the first shot because they knew, just as I pointed out earlier, that doing so would be the natural, common-sense reaction to such a situation. I don't think she is referring to just how he reacted to his death. He is an excellent actor in terms of playing his character as a villain

"An emotional nicole makes a final plea to eric and begs for his forgiveness" Why do i sense this is going to be ridiculously embarrassing? :puke: Its over,because another spoiler says nicole tells daniel their friend s ship is over. Unless she is unaware daniel wasn't the one who told eric,this is incredibly sociopathic move.
The other spoiler actually says Nicole threatens to kill Daniel..Little birdie says she's going to trick him into coming to his basement she & Eric where and have Jennifer at gun point tied up inside.. I doubt it but that would be crazy.. I'm ready for Crazy Nicole :cheer:

So Gabi is just going to be sent to prison, no trial or anything?
If she confesses and pleads no contest in front of a judge, there wouldn't be a trial. Yeah true. You'd think she'd tried to get off pleading temporary insanity. I guess maybe she is going to get a lighter sentence confessing. It's still hard to believe Gabi of all people is going to prison.

If I was Gabi, instead of killing Nick I would have taken my chances with the truth. I would have told Nick that I was going to tell the police everything including him blackmailing everyone and that he might as well get ready to go back to prison too. And if threat of going back to prison didn't scare him off I would have followed through with going to the police because I'm sure what she and Sami and Kate did to him wouldn't have carried the same sentence as murder.

Yeah true. You'd think she'd tried to get off pleading temporary insanity. I guess maybe she is going to get a lighter sentence confessing. It's still hard to believe Gabi of all people is going to prison. Not that I don't believe others should pay for their crimes, but Gabi most definitely deserves to have the book thrown at her. What she did to Melanie, her FRIEND, to get a man was sick and twisted. Her desire to cover her ass lead to not only the expensive destruction of Salem, it also caused the deaths of 2 perfectly innocent people. Not to mention the pain and suffering of the deceased loved ones is very real and ongoing. Then her willingness to look the other way when Nick began blackmailing her FRIEND so she could get what she wanted - her "happily ever after" - also started the chain of events that lead to another death. This time by her own hand. Personally, the things she willingly did to hurt her good friends ( who only loved and supported her ), just so she could get her way was deplorable.

Soaps.Com Spoilers: Monday June 2: The truth about Nick’s murder is revealed – and several lives will never be the same. Eric confronts Nicole over her deception! Tuesday June 3: Protective of Rafe, Sami rips into a stunned Jordan. An emotional Nicole makes a final plea to Eric and begs for his forgiveness. Wednesday June 4: Nick’s murderer prepares for life in prison – but has one last confession to make. An emotional Hope breaks down in Aiden’s arms. Thursday June 5: "Days of our Lives" will be pre-empted on Thursday June 5. Friday June 6: "Days of our Lives" will be pre-empted on Friday, June 6 2014. http://soaps.sheknows.com/daysofourlives/spoilers/
Assuming that Gabi is the person going to prison, I wonder whether Hope breaks down because Ari losing her mother reminds Hope of losing her mother when she was a baby? That would be great use of history but I have a feeling she might breakdown because she blames herself. She might feel that this whole thing was preventable if the family paid close attention to Nick. She already stated something similar right after Nick died.

Or today I miss Days today. Why can't tennis be on one of the sports channels? I was flipping through the channels and saw the tennis on. I'd never heard of either player.

She might feel that this whole thing was preventable if the family paid close attention to Nick. She already stated something similar right after Nick died. I think it might be a combo of things - her guilt, her stresses, her suppression of feelings in order to try to objectively investigate this case, it being Gabi, etc.
I wonder if Aiden stumbles upon an upset Hope because they were supposed to have a meeting about the gala, or if he's at the PD as Gabi's lawyer & sees Hope's upset & asks her to take a walk with him.

That is exactly how i saw it. Gabi was doing whatever she was doing to protect herself and she had no problem throwing everyone else under the bus. She was fine with Nick blackmailing Sami to give her a glamorous job and she did encourage Nick to go after Sami. she is a selfish little bitch and I will never buy that she did what she did to protect everyone even if the show tries to sell that notion. However, I will buy that she did it to free herself from Nick's control and to protect Ari from crazy Nick.

I kind of hope Aiden is there as Gabi's lawyer. Even if she's confessing she still needs a lawyer present. I think Hope has had a lot of emotions weighing down on her, especially since Bo left. Glad to see Aiden being there for her.

As someone pointed out earlier in the thread: The spoiler saying that Nick's killer "prepares for life in prison" -- might be worded in a misleading way.
Perhaps it's *NOT* a judge sentencing her to life in prison.
Perhaps Gabi is just preparing for *her new life*, and this new life will include some prison time, but not a lot.
It also could mean that she *assumes* it will be a long prison term, and she's trying to prepare herself for that by plotting to use her passport to escape the country. Who knows?

I have a feeling when she learns Daniel didn't tell,she will eventually want their friendship intact.
Of course if nicole has gone psycho possesive of eric,all bets are off on that happening.

Sounds like Gabi is the killer. So predictable. I do think it's time for her to admit what happened with Melanie
This has been the lamest whodunit story ever. :toetap:
Eh. I'd be interested in knowing how it is playing out to people who are genuinely spoiler-free and have no idea that Camila Banus is set to exit the canvas in two weeks. I don't think that it's been bad, per se. It was just obvious from the start to anyone who knew that Camila was leaving (and was willing to accept that Gabi was the murderer without trying to look for another explanation simply for the sake of being surprised -- which is circular because they might have been surprised if they hadn't known that Camila was leaving) that Gabi would end up being the murderer. At least this murder actually happened, unlike the last "whodunit?" with Stefano. I would think even "spoiler free" folks would've noticed her death grip on that diaper back and yet not a baby in sight?!?! :-/

I really have no desire to see any fist fight between Brady and John again, that's just insulting. John needs to forget about his adult son and concentrate on fixing the mess he made of his marriage.....thanks to the lousy writing of J&M.
