John Discovers Brady and Kristen's Illicit Affair

So... John finally knows about Brady and Kristen.

After weeks of watching him treat Marlena with such disdain every time she dared to suggest that Kristen wasn't the angel she was presenting herself to be, it's nice to see John get what he deserves.  

A nice big bowl of crow, served up Kristen style.  

How pathetic is it that this is all part of her evil plan to get revenge on John for choosing Marlena over her?  "Now I'm going to take your son from you!!!"

Of course, John plays right it to her plan, barging in to her hotel room Rambo style... now Brady's convinced he's wronged Kristen, and we're going be dealing with this for months to come.  With any luck, Kristen will get pregnant, and then the real fun will begin.

This story line is a little bit sick... she was almost his stepmom!  She surely changed his diapers a few times!  I also don't like how this makes Brady look.  He's usually so smart, how can he not see through her?!  

It's kind of a shame that she has to still be psycho, I always liked good Kristen.

But then again, what would Salem be without a few psychos in the mix?

Grandma Sami?

It's been too long since I posted, the daily dish is turning into the monthly dish... I will endeavour to do better!

Lot's has been going on in the past two weeks, and it's all pretty exciting!

Gabby is pregnant, and Sami was there with her when she found out.  What Sami doesn't know is that the baby is Will's.  I wonder how she'd feel about being called Grandma? 

(As an aside, what the heck is wrong with Sami's hair in the past two episodes?  Is the hairstylist on vacation?  Maybe on crack?)

Anyway, I digress.

So Sami being Sami, she couldn'y keep the secret, and she told Rafe about the pregnancy today.  I actually laughed out loud at the face he made after Sami finally spilled the beans.  

I love it when sh*t hits the fan on Days, don't you?

True to herself, Sami also managed to spill Gaby's secret to her new boyfriend, Nick.  His face was priceless too, considering he assumes it's his... Wonder what face he'll make when he finds out it's not?

I've got to hand it to Days of Our Lives writers and producers, they have been pushing the envelope lately, and I think it's really cool that the show seems to be evolving with the times.  Adding gay characters, the love scene between Sunny and Will, and now this pregnancy story line.

Gaby has decided that she wants an abortion, but we still don't know if that's going to happen.  

At the end of today's show, Will was still trying to put enough money together to pay for it.  He also spoke about the money before noticing his dad standing right there.

Now Lucas has questions, and Sami, Rafe & Nick will be desperately trying to find Gaby... I don't know if the abortion will actually take place, but I'm hoping it doesn't, because it would make for some great writing down the line...

What I really can't wait to see it the look on Sami's face when she finds out the baby is Will's!!!

Ooh! ooh!  I was forgetting all about Kristen.  We got our first bit of proof that Marlena's paranoia is justified today!!!  After John got angry at his precious Doc for erasing Kristen's messages informing him of Brady's attack, Marlena went off on Kristen, calling her a conniving bitch.  John didn't like this and came to Kristen's defense, only getting angrier with the usually saintly Marlena.

When Kristen found Marlena alone a little later in the episode, she walked up behind her and told her, in a hushed tone: "I'm only going to say one more thing: Thank you."  Then she smiled and walked away...

That conniving bitch, what has she got planned now?!  LOL

Have you been enjoying these story lines as much as I have?

EJ And Rafe Have A Street Fight Over Sami

So I'm watching Days of Our Lives today, and Rafe and EJ are arguing as usual. The object of their argument? None other than Sami Brady of course.

Suddenly, EJ head butts Rafe right in the head! Head butts him! Of course, Rafe goes ballistics and a good old fist fight ensues, right there in Salem's town square.

EJ the ex-mayor and Rafe, the detective, going at it old style. Two men who are well into their thirties, fighting over a girl. Just shameful.

The funniest part was watching John and Brady stand back and enjoy the show as EJ was getting his ass handed to him. You really shouldn't start fights you can't finish, Dimera. It's really bad for your rep as a big bad guy. No wonder he hires out for all his heavy hitting.

Who do you think Sami should choose? More importantly, who do you think she will choose?


Much love,
Felicia

Ian McAllister Killed Stefano Dimera on Days of Our Lives!

There's so much going on in Salem!

It seemed clear that today's post should be titled "2 dead, several injured in Salem explosion", but that breaking news was blown out of the water when Ian announced to Kate that he is the one who murdered Stefano Dimera!

Of course, the episode ended at that point and we'll have to wait until tomorrow to hear more.  I'd just like to point out that I singled him out as my prime suspect from the get go.  This isn't my first who-dun-it in Salem, and it probably won't be my last!

Now EJ, Sami and Will just need to find proof so they can clear EJ's name.  Will Kate help her former step-son?  This is far from over, and odds are the truth won't be revealed until EJ's about to get fried.  It happened to John, and to Sami... I can't think of anyone else, can you?

In other news...

The Salem explosion has claimed two lives so far:  Brady Black's fiancee, Madison, and Jack Deveraux, husband to Jennifer and father to Abigail and JJ, whom we haven't seen in years.  Could his fathers death be what brings him back to Salem?  We'll just have to wait and see.

The scene after the elevator Jack was in plummeted was quite touching, my eyes teared up as Abigail screamed out in pure anguish.  The acting has actually been quite impressive this week.

Brady is still in the tunnels with Melanie, so he has no idea his beloved Madison is gone forever.  On what was suppose to be their wedding day, I don't know how Brady will survive.  Let's hope he doesn't turn back to drugs.

He and Mel finally broke through the wall that had them trapped at the end of the episode, just as Chad and Gaby showed up.  Melanie and Brady were hugging, and Chad just looked jealous.  It was actually kind of weird.  Why in the world would he be jealous?  She's just gone through a terrible ordeal, and she was hugging her friend.

Probably will turn out to be nothing, when the scene starts again I'm sure Chad will be thrilled to find his darling Melanie.

Can't wait to see Gaby squirm when the questions start!

Who Killed Stefano Dimera?

I called it weeks ago, I just knew we were setting up for a who-dun-it in Salem.  Twenty five years of watching, and this isn't my first rodeo.  I knew exactly where the writers were heading with this.

Stefano Dimera was shot at the end of Friday's episode, and they took the body away in a body bag.  It seems like the old man is truly dead, but nothing's ever final on DOOL.

The Salem police department has an astounding eight sets of prints on the murder weapon.  Oh yes, you read right, eight different people showed up that night to threaten Stefano, and eight different people were dumb enough to leave their prints on a gun lying around the house.  Two of those people are police officers, and one is an ex-cop, mercenary and ISA agent.

It's more than a little bit of an insult to our intelligence as an audience, but this is Days of our Lives, and it's not the first time we've been asked to believe something so ludicrous.

So our present suspects are EJ, Will, John, Marlena, Bo, Hope, Kate and Abe, but when the shot was fired, our killer was wearing gloves, so it could actually be any number of people, such as Ian McAllister.

Who do you think did it?


PS: Alexandra's still not dead.  On the bright side, there were no sappy mushy scenes about her dying today.  :)

Who Will Kill Stefano Dimera?

Our up-coming who-dun-it is heating up in Salem, with today's episode being mostly about setting up the suspects.

Will, John Black, Marlena, Bo, Hope or EJ. I had pegged Brady as a suspect a couple of weeks ago when I first predicted Stefano would soon die. Well die Salem style, anyway. Stefano's never really dead, he's the Phoenix, and always rises from the ashes.

The episode ended with EJ brandishing a gun in his ex-dad's face, but it ain't over until you hear the bang, and I don't believe it will be him in the end.

The rest of the episode included scenes with Gaby and her stalker for hire and Nicole and Dr Daniel making out.

I've been hoping they might get together... Guess Daniel wasn't too angry about the test switching after all!

Who do you think will pull the trigger... And when?

Marlena Evans to Kill Stefano?

Today's episode was kind of a bore.

Bo and Hope made out all episode while discussing how lucky they were to have each other and how much they hate Stefano... ya, okay, we know.  Thank goodness for the fast forward button... barf

Gaby's still trying to break up Melanie and Chad, and is just annoying.  The whole stalker thing doesn't hold up one bit, yet nobody is calling her on it.  Give me a break.

And Alexandra Carver STILL isn't dead.  If she really is going to kick the bucket, can we get on with it already???  I'm so sick of watching crying scenes!!!

Marlena caught John buying the gun (further setup for the upcoming who-dun-it)...  and made him get rid of it.

Just as I was ready to call the episode a wash, Marlena's last line implied that she may take matters into her own hands.  Another suspect to add to an ever growing list.

On the upside, if Marlena goes to jail, we won't have to watch anymore kissing scenes of her and John.  I don't know who's at fault, but they always seem repulsed when they have to make-out.  It's kind of gross to watch, I wonder if the actors don't get along.

John to bite the bullet?

"I'm sorry my friend, but your little game is over" said the big bad arms dealer as he pointed his gun straight at John's chest. "I know who you all are and I know what you're up to."

End scene, tune in tomorrow. As if they'll actually get shot. How many times can one fake die in a week?

I know what you're thinking: this is Days, anything is possible! Very true, but I predict no one will be harmed. Though I'd love to see the looks on the doctors faces when they wheel in a supposedly dead patient!

"hey, didn't you die last week?"

Where are Shawn D and Belle?

So, all of Belle and Shawn D's parents have died, but at the service on yesterday's episode, excuses were made for every family member except them.

Even recently, when Bo was near death, they spoke of Zack and Siera, but never mentionned Shawn D.

I've been hoping for their return for a while now, but I think my dog is dead, because the writers and producers seem to have forgotten about them.

Ah sucky poo.

What about you? Are there any characters that you miss?

*edit* Of course, I posted this and then went to watch today's episode.  Belle and Shawn D. were mentioned.  No hope of them coming back though, because they conveniently get to know the truth.
