Well, some non dumb moves by the writers today, I must say.

CB is still slaying it.

I especially like that the river incident was really put onto Sami and Kate and portrayed as a god-awful thing to push Gabi into.

Rafe notices that EJ probably has a conflict in representing Gabi (even though he doesn't know about the river, does he?)

And again, event. n though I don't like that Nicole shredded that documents given her long redemption, AZ is selling it.

Oh, and if Jordan keeps standing up to and then blowing off Sami, she might turn into my new favorite character.
Because Gabi has no Will or mouth of her own, right? Who pushed her into hiring Andrew to have Melanie kidnapped?
I said nothing about the Andrew incident. I was singularly referring to the incident at the river in which a traumatized, just-having-been assaulted Gabi was talked into not going to the police by Sami and Kate. This is what the show portrayed.

Yes, Sami, because everyone should always be reachable just in case a sibling just happens to confess to murder. smdh

CB's portrayal of Gabi was once again the highlight of the show. I absolutely love that Gabi told Marlena, so Kami's part won't just be swept under the rug. Someone needs to call them out on it. EJ proved today why he should not represent Gabi. It was heartbreaking to watch Gabi fall apart when Rafe walked in. Love their sibling relationship and I will miss that. I'm really tired of these scenes where John interferes and Brady gets pissy. At least today, there's action. What's left? Oh, Ericole. I actually fast forwarded through some of their scenes today. I so hate what they did to Nicole with this one. I loved this couple, and now I just want this over. But damn, AZ can rock her scenes.

bringing Marlena in professionally to counsel Gabi is an unexpected story beat, but a logical one that I really appreciate

Can't believe Eric actually followed Nicole back to her room.

I'm sorry, but blaming Gabi for Jack being dead is like saying it's Marlena's fault that Samantha was strangled

Gabi is just tugging at my heartstrings today :( She's too good for Kate and Sami. Lord knows if they thought they could get a reduced sentence they'd give her up in a heartbeat IMHO.

Brady sucks. I get so annoyed when he's on anymore. They need to break up Theresa and Brady stat, because this pairing is a hot mess. And not in a good way.

I gotta say, the new Ben is a major improvement. He's got personality - something the old Ben was seriously lacking. I could really get on board with Ben/Abigail if we could just reveal this damn secret!

Sami being bitchy with Jordan is fun! I like CS, and it's nice when she's not ONLY interacting with GG/Rafe.

Seriously, I'm tearing up about Gabi! I can't wait to see her conversation with Marlena.

Nicole is bringing up Eric's time in Africa, and Eric is having none of it. GV tearing up gets me every time. I'm gonna need some tissues for today's episode!

I'm having a hard time rooting for Nicole or Eric or them together. I know that Eric is the one being hurt and deepily betrayed once again, but the writing choices made for him has been . . . eh

I find myself having very little sympathy for him.

I stopped rooting for Nicole the moment she chose to shred the evidence even after Eric chose her over the Church. She's been my fav Days lady (after Kristen) for the last decade or so but she fuck right off with her lying self.

I commend GV & AZ for emotionally committing 100% to the material even if the material is laced with more than a little WTFery

Ericole are not over.

I don't even mind them being torn apart. It's how they did it that bothers me.

EJ thanks Hope for bringing Marlena. Rafe bounds in demanding to know why EJ is there. EJ says he's representing Gabi and Rafe accuses him of a conflict of interest.

Gabi tells the story of her relationship with Nick to Marlena and how good it was at first but then he became obsessed. But there's a flashback of Sami telling her never to tell anyone about the river and attempted rape. Marlena says their conversation is confidential. And I am proud of the show for pointing out how shitty it was for Sami (and Kate) to not allow Gabi to simply go to the police at any point during and after the river incident, since she was in the least amount of trouble given his physical and mental abuse toward her.
So this is how Marlena learns what Sami and Kate did to Nick. But because of the confidentiality no one else in Salem will know. :ermm:
I wish Marlena could talk but I think Sami got the message that her mother knows what she did. Sami and EJ are still in full self preservation mode. How unfair that Gabi has to take the full brunt of this while Sami ,Kate and EJ are coming up smelling like roses. Can't wait for them to get what's coming to them. Another wonderful performance by CB today,especially when Rafe showed up.
Brady and Theresa, two useless losers going at it, one to spite Pops and the other to get rich. Sleazy is the only word to describe them.
