So. They clearly cut part of Nicole's dream Friday...and then inserted it today. So weird.
Maybe they planned to show it twice?

This Summer-Brady--Brady's baboon heart storyline will be acceptable to me if unstable Summer becomes attached to Brady because of her obsession with Daniel and kills Theresa or it's a way of tarnishing Perfect Dan's memory or Theresa goes to find Summer, falls in the ocean, and is never found.

"I know you're sad, but you need to find a new boyfriend! Here, let's find you a new boyfriend! You can't have MY boyfriend! Did I mention how perfect my life? Because it is! It really really is! I have a baby and you don't. I have a boyfriend and you don't. I'm just so happy -- and you aren't." Good lord.

I like Philip's hair today. And his little rant in the police station

I cannot take another minute of this DJ Wear story. Or Brady and Theresa. Or Theresa and Nicole.

I think she doesn't want her seeing Brady and the second coming of Dr. Dan...and since they've only been together 4 months who can blame her for worrying...
Then why did she bring Nicole back to her and Brady's home and insist that they work there for the next few weeks? Wouldn't Nicole's apartment be a better place to work and she wouldn't have to deal with Nicole and Brady being together all the time?
I don't know to keep an eye on them working together...I didn't get it either...

So I think Summer is Sarah. No, I don't know for sure. Yes, I've been thinking this for months.
As in. . . Sarah Horton, Sarah? So Daniel was taking care of his sister only didn't realize it?
Hmmm interesting theory....we could use another Horton on the canvas for a change.
I was thinking about Sarah as well. But my problem with this was - wouldn't Maggie know if Sarah had such big mental health problems? It seemed to me they weren't estranged.

Today's episode had a weird vibe to it. I'll put it down to the writer shift and try not to give the odd stuff too much attention.

I have little interest in Kate and which man she ends up with. (And of course she was going to accept the necklace. It was the first time Kate hadn't been draped in multiple jewelry strands) Can I please see the men put their energies elsewhere. This bored me.

Belle looked gorgeous and I loved the way she came back at Lani. That felt like a genuine expected response. Sal got some lines to play today and still her delivery is dry! There was some fun to be had and she couldn't elevate the scene because she's a weak scene partner. The writers are creating quite the budinski with Lani. She's all over Hope influencing Rafe in a bad way and now she accuses Belle of interfering with Shawn's mental state. At least there is consistency with her character.

John giving Philip what for about Belle was well written and nicely performed. Probably my favorite scene of the episode. I like that family was focused on and I liked the honesty in the conversation.

I don't know what was going on with Theresa, Nicole and Brady. That felt so messy and poorly executed. I'm sick of Nicole in tears. I get Theresa wants Nicole to stop focusing on Daniel's heart beating in Brady's chest, but it all comes off rather lame as written. I just wish they'd let it go and move them all onto something better. Daniel's heart is becoming the new never ending elephant.

Deimos promptly taking out Victor's hired hand was amusing as was his follow up text. I like that Rafe, John, Philip and soon Victor will also know about the phone calls from Greece and connection to Dr. Malcolm. It's good to see those threads begin to run together. It's time to move this story.

I'm looking forward to Belle focusing on Claire. I really like both characters immensely and I want to see both of them interacting opposite each other. I also think their conflict makes good story.

Is she pregnant?
I'm guessing they mistakenly believe she has a history of being an alcoholic.

OR maybe she felt drinking would have been kin to what Eric did which took away from Salem the greatest man that would ever live in that cursed little town.
Point two would have actually been a good point to bring up..

BUT THAT WOULD HAVE INVOLVED NICOLE ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT ERIC SO SOMEONE SOMEWHERE ISN"T EVER GOING TO ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN :soapbox:

I'm guessing the only reason we had the Belle/Lani throwdpwn is because Lani is the one Shawn will be asking out momentarily! These writers are NOT good at subtlety and telegraph everything!

Dear Writers,
Nicole HAS family that can be brought back or she can visit!! She does NOT need a surrogate family in the dimwits Braniel & Theresa!!
Thanks!!

I liked the John Philip conversation for a few reasons. The concern for Belle and Claire, the honestly from Philip, John's reference to his own mistake. I almost got the sense of an anvil about Belle getting hurt because of Deimos too.

I thought Theresa seemed a little in love with Nicole today. This triangle thing would work better if Jen Lilley would play the insecurity and edge in Theresa that it calls for.

I'm getting a little eye-rolly about Daniel, too, but AZ is fantastic and hasn't had material like this to kill in a long time. I did think it was a missed opportunity not to use Eric at the bar.

I feel like I should have more to say about this ep, lol. Lani and Belle -- maybe I missed some lead up to this scene over the last few weeks, but it seemed like a lot. Oh, and John slut-shaming Philip made me laugh.

How angsty would it have been if Nicole had been at the bar thinking about taking a drink to drown her woes and then ERIC had walked in to buy a drink......

# I don't care if my couple hate/despise each other - I just like to see them in scenes together....

One of my fave EJOLE scenes is on the pier after Sami has dumped him at the altar.

here's my problem...So Eric drank and drive does that mean nobody should drink? Nicole's not an alcoholic...I say knock back one if you want to.

^ My face watching DAYS

Nicole in a matter of weeks has become the most annoying character on this show....by a fucking mile.

She has surpassed normal Maggie levels of annoying for me....I need a change of direction/characterization and story for her IMMEDIATELY or rest this character and get her the fuck off my screen because I AM DONE with this pathetic version of Nicole wallowing over her 5-7 monthish abusive douchebag boyfriend.

She's not an alcoholic but she would be drinking to numb her feelings of loss which was exactly what Eric was doing. ( he wasn't an alcoholic either).

I love Nicole but I totally agree with you the only thing that is saving her is I know AZ is capable of more.

Especially when it's contrasted with Hope losing Bo her soulmate of 30 years and she seems to have forgotten he existed
