I still don't get why was Jen sobbing for this abusive man child. If he could dumb her for this minor thing and treat her like crap, I just don't get why she's crying for him. She should be angry. And stupid JJ asking her to "fix this." Damn you JJ and Daniel for making me feel sorry for Jennifer.
Geezus fucking hell, what in the world is Sami wearing? It looks like a repurposed wrestling jersey.
Yes, the dress is 1/2 price on the BCBG website...wonder why?
I find it difficult to believe that Ali had much control over what Sami wears. Or she just has this concept of Sami in her mind completely separate from herself. She wore some great looking dresses this past couple weeks while making the talk show rounds and the past 3 Sami outfits have been just awful.

I'm sure we're suppose to find Sami's hyperactive over-enthusiastic boundless energy when she's running around in the backyard to be cute and endearing but I just find her incredibly annoying and like chalk on a blackboard.
I keep wondering why EJ hasn't clued in to her bizarre behavior yet?
Cause while he says he knows her. EJ doesn't REALLY know Sami at all. ;)
Right. That's how I see it. I really hope that after Sami reveals she knows and it blows up in his face, the show makes it clear this couple is all wrong for each other. Abigail shows more guilt and remorse even when Sami's name is brought up while EJ could face Sami with a naked Abby behind him and actually act irritated at Sami at the interruption.
Speaking of nudity...I thought the writers missed a golden opportunity with Sami's dialogue in today's show. When she was talking about how Abby had made up her own mind about E.J. and had been able to see what Sami had seen in him, I kept expecting her to say that Abby had seen "the naked truth" about E.J., but that never happened, obviously.
I'm with those that are saying they'd like to see a flashback of Sami finding out the actual truth, but sadly, the new SOD doesn't make it sound like there will be one. AS implied that viewers will be left to "wonder" about how Sami got the pictures.
Why do people think Sami's gushing was so over the top? Wasn't she gushing this way before the Gack wedding. She was playing Gabi's proud mother figure, planning her wedding, organizing everything and she even involved Abigail. I know it was a plot devise then, as well as now but still, we saw gushy Sami before.
I agree. I don't think it was anything new for Sami to act all hyper and OTT.
Jen-Jen alone at Horton House. She weeps. Daniel in his office looking at picture of Jen-Jen, he puts it in his drawer. A knock. It's JJ looking for Daniel. He wants St. Jonas to know about his history final. JJ is all happy about Paige and is excited that Daniel will come to his graduation dinner. (Daniel, don't be a jackass. You have a separate relationship with JJ. Go to his damn graduation dinner, asshole.)
Eric tells Marlena about Nicole and that Jennifer told him. Eric apologizes for coming down hard on Marlena over Nicole's story. He says she has every right to say I told you so.
Nicole sees a newspaper story about Gabi and says "Oh my god, Rafe." She dials her phone.
I thought Nicole worked at a tv station. You would think she would have heard about Gabi killing Nick and being sent to prison before this.
How could she when she never goes to work.
I dated a reporter for years and he was rarely in the office.
Wow and here I thought Sami was trying to be a better person and wanting to make EJ pay for raping her back then and torturing her family. :shrug:
Why would she want to be a better person? It is so much more fun to be a bad girl.
So you thought Sami has been living with Ej and being in love with him and giving her children the illusion of a stable family for over a year just waiting for the opportunity to get revenge on him for stuff they already put behind them and to avenge a family does not give 2 shit about her?
IMO, Sami is hurt and she wants good old fashion revenge. But she is madly in love with Ej, so the rest will work itself out.
Ej does not care about the money or DE as much as he cares about the family he has with his Samantha. When he had to choose between saving Sami and the Dimera empire, he gave up everything in a split second without blinking. Quite honestly, if Sami really wants to hurt Ej, all she has to do is take her children and leave him. The last time she did that, he tried to kill himself. There is nothing Sami can do to Ej that could be worst than that to him.
I wasn't talking about the last year. Do you seriously not remember 2006? She wanted to be a better person. The night EJ raped her he told her if she said anything her family would be pissed at her for helping a fugitive. Remember EJ shot John? And then she would go to jail. Sami finally wanted to make things right with her family. Even now it gets to her when MArlena, Will and Eric are disapointed in her. Sami can still be bad (like in business) but not intentially hurt people,.
I remember everything about Sami. I guess I am confused about the point you are making. How does Sami wanting to be a better person fit into all of this? How is Sami making Ej pay for the 12/29 sex blackmail and for what Ej did to her family make her a better person? I have nothing against revenge personally. But revenge does not make you a better person. It makes you a vindictive person IMO.
Since Ejami worked everything out since 2008, as far they are concerned and as far as I am concerned, it is water under the bridge because they wiped the slate clean. Ejami have forgiven each other for the things they have done in the past including Sami shooting Ej in the head. The only thing they have to deal with now is the cheating. Or did I miss something?
I understand that Sami wanted to be a good person in 2006 and she is for the most part, but she is also deeply flawed. Either way, she is never going to measure up to her family and I think she finally gets that. Personally, I want Sami to be herself good or bad and most importantly love herself for who she is instead of trying to be the kind of person her family wants her to be.
As far as Sami's family goes, I don't want her to ever stick her neck out for any of them again because they do not deserve her loyalty and love IMO. Look how both Marlena and Eric treat her. They do not love her or value her as a family member. So my wish is for Sami turn her back on them for good and focus on her real family: Ejamily. I realize it is not going to happen, a girl can dream.

Who is Sami intentionally hurting? I need Sami to stop giving Eric and Marlena or any member of her family so much power over her and her life. she IS a grown ass woman.

Abigail shows more guilt and remorse even when Sami's name is brought up while EJ could face Sami with a naked Abby behind him and actually act irritated at Sami at the interruption.
I see don't see any real guilt from Abigail, just her being uncomfortable with the situation that Sami is pulling her into. She said herself several times that she was not sorry. She has yet to express regrets for hurting Sami and for sleeping with her man behind her back. All I hear is me me me, how the situation affects HER and how hard it is for HER. I am still waiting for her to stay that she was wrong to have slept with Sami's man and try to break up a family.
As far as Ej is concerned, he is going to get his. Hurricane Sami is coming for him.
so the spoiler for today about "abby and ej in a compromising position" ... refers to the PHOTO of them from the second time they met at the cabin?
or ... did the show put the wrong dates on the spoilers they gave out?
Oh goodness! I like that too! Can you pull up a video for me of that? I wanna see! :wub2:
I can get you links to the full episodes if you'd prefer, but here's a link that just includes that one scene I mentioned in the May 21st episode (skip to around the 1:00 mark):

Then, in the May 23rd episode, the relevant parts start around the 3:05 mark in this clip:
Spoiler: click to toggle
(And, as a slight correction to what I posted earlier, Sami said she would pick "that" up later, not "it"...but the point remains the same either way.)
Wow! I watched that and I can totally see that angle and timeline working as well. Excellent catch!
I would still be left wondering what text or message or phonecall she got in the clip I posted???
I don't think Sami received any incoming communication at all in the clip you posted of Sami with her phone. In that scene, Sami was preoccupied with the phone after listening to Gabi's heavy EJ propping about how much he loved Sami and would do anything for her.... I think Sami was debating whether or not to contact EJ by phone to tell him she was ready to make peace with him. She looks at the phone and the other hand hovers over it like she's going to send something. She never does because she hears EJ enter the house. Sami immediately initiates a conversation with EJ where she tells him she no longer holds him responsible for what his family members do.
The EJabby picture Sami had today was just then being taken in that same episode, while Gabi was doing all her propping about his love for Sami. LOL. Sami seemed completely sincere in her acceptance of EJ later in that episode. And Ali Sweeney has said Sami was being sincere at that point. Just my take, but maybe it addresses your questions. :)
This picture of Jennifer is HILARIOUS! She looks like she should be in a Pepto Bismol commercial! Or Ex-Lax, judging by her facial expressions most of the time.
Wouldn't you look like that, too, if TPTB made you flash back to sex with Jonas Christ?
LOVED the episode (save the Fetch shit).
Haiden was cute. Kinda raised an eyebrow at Hope participating in blackmail, but it was fun.
Eve! And she's going by Baron! Be careful which doctor you choose, though, honey. Some of them require their patients to get banged as a form of "welcome to town" initiation.
Loved the symbolic clothing going on: Abigail wearing white like a bride, Sami's effed up dress making her look like a priest. Loved AS bouncing all over the place and then showing that seething anger at the end. I cannot WAIT for all of this to unravel. Soapy, soapy goodness.
Today's episode was great. Now *finally* it's starting to feel like the show is cooking with some gas again.
Sami knew, as was expected. Her gushing was so over the top it was clear. And it is going to so great. I cannot wait to see her exact revenge on EJ and hopefully for STFUAbby aswell. I also like it how she's doing it slow burn style. She's not going to confront or punch them, she's going to make them pay and live to regret the day they double-crossed Sami Brady. I'm especially glad that I'm sure Sami will totally and utterly humiliate STFUAbby throughout the whole town so that they will all know, little miss babysitter isn't all that what everyone thinks she is. Little miss Her Royal Hortoness junior is headed for a big fall. I think this is going to be *EPIC*.
I really hope Mama Jen is in attendance for the big reveal about her daughter & EJ :hail:
She'll probably be unable to attend because she's still so sad about the break up with Dr Jonas.
I don't really see why Jen finding out that Abby slept with EJ would be such a big deal. Abby is an adult and sleeping with an older man is not the worst thing she could have done. It's not like Jen finds out her daughter attempted murder or that she's marrying a Demira or something. I say Abby needs to shake the goody two shoe image sooner or later now is just as good a time as any. I still don't think her reputation needs to suffer for being the other woman in EJ's life, he's the one who's cheated on his fiancée so he's the one who's reputation should be ruined if it wasn't already .
I totally agree with your post but I must admit I laughed at the thought of EJ's reputation being ruined if it is revealed that he had an "affair" with Abby while engaged to Sami.If all the slimey sh-t he has done in the past has not ruined it,revealing his affair with Abby should not cause his reputation to take too much of a hit.

I agree with you in principle. Abigail is an adult, and she slept with an engaged man. That's not cool, and she clearly regrets it. She's made a mistake, and the show is portraying it as such, but not showing it as an indictment of Abigail's entire character, although I'd like to see Will call her on her Daddy issues/habit of attaching herself to older men who remind her of/talk nicely about her dad.
However, her mother is St. Jenn-Jenn of the Jonas (ex but still). She will be horrified at Abigail's lack of perfection. And deeply ashamed. One thing I doubt Jenn-Jenn will do is stop her wailing over the Jonas long enough to realize that maybe Abigail needs a therapist (that isn't Marlena.) Her mother should sit her down and say let's figure out how to get you in a place where you make better choices, but again, we are talking about Jennifer.
I want Jen Jen to have a front row seat to the revelation that EJabby had an affair. For one thing I thought Abigail's dream in January about Jen walking in on her and EJ at the cabin was hysterical and I want to see how it compares. I also think it would be interesting to see some conflict between Abigail and Jen. Not that I think the writers will go there.
If Jennifer tries to assign all of the blame to EJ,I hope Abby will tell her the truth just as Abby did at the time of the reveal with her,Austin,and Carrie.
