Its a strange choice to have Jennifer's reveal and Gabi's confession off screen.Eric really looked stunned.I hope they do flashbacks of both but I really want to see the Gabi/Hope interaction during the confession since both were excellent in the scenes just before they left to go to the police station.With Jennifer and Eric I want to hear exactly what she said to Eric and see her demeanor while telling him as well as his response(s)to her during the reveal.

I REALLY, REALLY hope that they don't continue to do these off screen reveals....because if it's any indication then maybe that is what they plan with the Ejabby one and I would really think that Days wouldn't be THAT stupid.

Once again Im gonna skip this abomination of a show after reading the play by play, for which Honeybees deserves a medal of valor. I can't waste my time on Horny and Corny today. I have important things to do like giving the parakeet an enema!

I have nothing invested in Eric and Nicole, but it still bothers me that they ruined this couple. I could see why this happened if there was another woman in Eric's life who he was meant to be with. But there isn't. And sorry, Tomlin, it is not Jennifer (who is suppose to be much much older than him).

Gabi: "I know that you didn't kill Nick... Because I did that."
And Sami smiling a little. :shame:
If your son was just cleared of murder because someone else came in and confessed, you would smile a little too. The relief of the reveal would trigger a smile. :whistle:
I think she was also thinking about how Gabi confessing got her and Elvis off the hook.

After her time with Gabi and Ari I bet Hope just wants to go home and hug and hold Ciera.

Marlena: "If Jennifer needs help, she can ask for it. Plus, she's got Daniel."

Eric: "Well everyone needs more than one person to lean on."

Um....? Does Eric know SuperDan at all? He's ALL anybody ever needs.
I loved Marlena's reaction to Eric telling her to check on Jennifer. It was a WTF moment.

Are we really not going to get to see Jennifer tell Eric the truth? WHY does the show insist on depriving us of all of the dramatic scenes! UGH.
Yeah, I'm still waiting for more than a two minute scene between John and Marlena since he returned that has some actual meaning and drama. Instead they act like they don't even know each other :rolleyes:

What female on the show doesn't?

And most of the men do, too.

The viewers get robbed. Its like bad editing of the show. It also robs the actors involved of emmy worthy material.

I don't think it was a strange choice at all to have those off screen moments. These were the show's May Friday cliff hangers.

Gabi's dramatic jail house confession would have been gutted if all of her conversation with Hope had been shown as it happened. This way we got the great scenes that you mentioned and the 'big reveal' of the killer. Yes, everyone on this board knew that Gabi was the killer, but there are millions of soap fans out there -- DOOL's included -- who just faithfully watch their unspoiled 'stories' and never bother with soap mags or internet sites. Those fans deserved the drama of today's ending. I would feel cheated next week if we don't see what Hope and Gabi said, but right now I'm looking forward to flashbacks. That's a good thing, since DOOL has not given me much to look forward to this sweeps. So I think it was well done.

Same goes for the Eric-Jennifer disclosure. For dramatic purposes, scenes of that painful conversation should not have preceded Eric's confrontation with Nicole. The only suspense in that ugly mess is Eric's reaction on learning the truth. Those scenes deserve to have Nicole in them first -- not Jennifer. I understand the desire to know about Jennifer -- how much she heard, how much she said, how she said it. However, personally, I am not looking forward to that and could completely do without it. JMO.

Hope with Gabi and baby Arianna made the episode for me. Beautifully done. I wish they had given them another sequence because of how compelling they were. So quietly touching, so meaningful. This is why I watch Days.

I agree, and I think there is more to come in flash backs on Monday. There should be.

This was not a bad Friday cliffhanger although I was left scratching my head a few times. We had to listen to Dan and Nicole go over and over and around and around the same stuff they've said a hundred times before and yet we don't hear one word of what Jen has to say to Eric. Ridiculous. And gosh Jen must have talked a thousand words a minute - it's a wonder Eric understood her.

And the stuff with Will dragged out as well too ... all to get to the big climactic moment of Gabi confessing. I will say my heart was breaking for Gabi in those scenes at the apt. I think Hope's heart was breaking too.

I am looking forward to Eric's confrontation with Nicole. It should be a good one. I just can't drum up any sympathy for Nicole this time. What she did so wrong and deep down she knows it. All of Eric's anger and rage she brought on herself all because she had to hang on to him no matter the cost.

honestly, Camila Banus has grown SO MUCH as an actress. I'm really going to miss her and Gabi in Salem
I don't agree. She's still the same conniving bitch she's always been on the show.

Marlena tells Eric she wants him to be happy and if marrying Nicole makes him happy, then he has her blessing. Eric tells her about the elopement. She doesn't look happy and there is a ominous music cue.

St. Orange smugs to Nicole that she's not going to elope - that it ENDS HERE. Smug Douche level goes to 11.
I used to be neutral about Dr. Dan, then I liked him, then I liked him but agreed he was being overused. I have stepped into the light. . .away from the darkness of Dr. Dan. I officially hate him now. The writers have made me hate him.

I am going to say this again and it sounds stupid but so are alot of things lol. I do not blame Nicole, I blame the writers. It can be argued that Nicole always goes desperate and crazy when things are going right and she doesn't trust a persons love for her. Yes I get it. But I've decided to do my best to ignore this asinine plot point (I should try harder), get thru the yearly crucifixion of Nicole and move forward ASAP. Also, I'd rather have Charity Rahmer play 5 different characters than have Daniel on this show. I'm sick sick sick sick sick of him and it's only getting worse. And it was bad enough before this month even happened.

EJ is going over Will's statement with EJ. EJ wants to know when Sonny saw the gun and Sonny says he saw Will holding the gun. Ejami look upset.

Lucas says you know how much I hate EJ and I"m telling you to listen to him. Will says I get what you are trying to say but he demands the confession be brought to him to sign.

Gabi is with Ari and tells her she will always be her little girl. She loves her. Hope watches. Hope says she's sending a team over...it seems like maybe Gabi confessed off screen because Hope says I'd spend as much time with her if I were you.
Hope and Gabi. Best of the day. And I love that Lucas still hates EJ as well as Dan.
