Nancy is at the square talking to Bonnie on the phone. She tells her she's having dinner with Clyde. She sees Leo. Leo wants to know how Craig is. Nancy said you broke his heart. Leo says he still loves him. Nancy says if you loved him you wouldn't have lied to him. Nancy leaves. Leo goes after her.

Clyde and Ben are looking at baby Bo. Ben tells Clyde baby not named after him accept for Weston. Clyde makes a remark about being the only grandpa alive. Ben says never say that around Ciara. Clyde says he has to get ready for his date.

Sarah and Eric in his room above the pub. Sarah is grateful Eric told her the whole story about Mickey and how Xander switched babies. They hug. Eric goes downstairs. Sarah gets a call from Xander. She declines it.

Xander and Sonny in the K-mansion. They are discussing that Sarah found out the truth what he did. Sonny tells Xander to give her time. Xander doesn't want to sit around. He leaves.

Back at the pub, Holly, Nicole and Rafe walk in. It's the last day of school and they came for pie. Holly wants strawberry. Nicole tries to explain too early for strawberry pie (not where I live). Holly sees Eric and wants to know when he's going to go back to be with mommy. Nicole reminds her Eric is a priest and she's with Rafe. Eric says he's there for a short visit. Rafe talks Holly in the kitchen to find pie. Eric and Nicole talk about Sarah.

Meanwhile at the DiMera mansion, Belle and EJ are still drinking. When EJ looks for the good scotch and he finds an empty bottle. He's mad because he knows Clyde drank it all. Belle is surprised Clyde was there. EJ tells her they were in prison together. EJ mentions Clyde came by to start a business with EJ. Clyde wanted to work with drugs. EJ said no. EJ mentioned he has dirt on Clyde. Belle wants to know what it is as his attorney and won't tell anyone. (they are still drinking). He tells her Clyde is responsible for someone's death. His.

Xander returns to the room with Sonny. He found a package for Sonny. Sonny surprised Xander would come back to give him box. Xander said he came back for his phone. Sonny opens box. It's from Will and Ari. They sent him a box of cookies and eats one. Xander leaves again.

Sarah comes down to the pub and apologizes to Nicole for when she came looking for Mickey. Nicole told it's ok since Xander lied to her. Rafe and Holly come back out with strawberry pie. Holly remembered last year they had some when school was out. Sarah tells Rafe and Nicole a nice couple. Holly hugs Eric and the three of them leave.

In the square, Nancy is running after Leo since he pulled her wig off. Leo didn't realize she wore one. Rafe appears and makes Leo give her wig back. He tells Leo to leave. After Rafe, Nicole, Holly walk away. Leo comes back. He wants Nancy give Chloe a message (Chloe is with Parker). Leo tells Nancy that Chloe is on his list.

EJ explains to Belle that Clyde didn't pull the trigger, but his man did. Belle wants EJ to turn Clyde in. EJ tells her he and Clyde were working together running drugs. He says it was something stupid. Belle says she'll figure something out. EJ says no because Clyde threatened him and Orpheus is involved. EJ told her he's working on it. Belle tells EJ not to be an idiot. She cares about him. EJ is surprised since Belle never said that before. Belle says she sees him differently since she's been her lawyer (and he looks different too). Belle gets up and is tipsy. She says she's hungry. EJ says they will let his driver take them somewhere.

Ciara comes out of the bedroom. There's a knock and Nancy arrives. She calls herself Nancy Miller. She tells Ciara Chloe went to school with Shawn. Clyde comes out. When they leave, Nancy tells Ben he has a beautiful family.

Sonny is sending Will a voicemail. He's thanking him for the cookies. Leo comes in with fruit cut up looking like flowers. He says congrats on getting his old job back. Sonny doesn't want the fruit. Leo starts eating it to prove it's not poisoned.

Nancy is talking to Clyde on the square about Leo. Clyde says to let him know if she sees Leo so he can rough him up. Nancy tells him how good looking Ben is. He could be a model or movie star (he's actually a soap opera star).

Holly is ready for bed. Rafe gives her a stuffed dog since they can't have a dog in the apartment.

Eric and Sarah are eating in his room when Xander knocks on the door. He wants to talk to Sarah alone. Sarah says Eric stays. Xander tells her he didn't know how to tell her about Mickey so he lied. Sarah said he played god with her life. Xander says he'll change. Sarah says she's not the same woman and she will never marry him.

Nancy is sitting on a bench when Clyde surprises her with flowers. Nancy gets text their reservation is ready. They bump into EJ and Belle. Clyde wants to know if they are seeing each other. After Clyde and Nancy walk away, EJ wonders what's going on with them.

Sarah tells Xander she's not going home now because of the bad memories there. She'll call Maggie and let her know. Eric told her she can stay as long as she wants in his room (doesn't the pub have other rooms she can stay in?).

Nicole tells Rafe that Holly fell right to sleep with her new dog. Rafe tells Nicole he has a present for her. It's a Duke. He's not sure what to call him. Nicole asks how long it took him to win the bear. Rafe tells her there's something in it's pocket. It's a ring.

Leo is still eating fruit when Sonny gets a text from Will. He didn't send the cookies. Sonny realizes Leo set him up. Sonny passes out.
 
what a show.... desperate Xander, back to being snotty Sarah, holier than thou Eric, smarmy Rafe, that stupid bear...I didn't like Holly, but I think it's been so long we've had child actors who were older than a year, she just needs some getting used too..... it was nice seeing her, some how I thought she'd be older.....

Leo.... what is your plan?? Love the fruit bouquet... amazed the show had the budget for those... they are pricey.....

Thanks kat for writing this one up
 
Leo is sinister, but have to admit, that ruse with the cookies was very clever. At first, I figured Leo just poisoned certain fruits and was eating around them. Who would have guessed anything else? Pulling off Nancy's wig was absolutely despicable. Leo needs to be voted off the island.

Retro Sarah is not good for anyone.

I guess Rafe thinks if he marries Nicole, she won't be pining after Eric anymore. Think again, Rafe. Poor Rafe, so unlucky in love. So is Xander, for that matter.

Holly is supposed to be six now, based on what I read (you never know with these shows), cute little girl. Clearly, she adores Eric and is starting to like Rafe.

Today Belle is the brainless one, getting tipsy with EJ. How will their evening end?????
 
Legal stuff: Since the law does not provide for persons coming back to life, the fact that EJ is alive means that Clyde could be charged with attempted murder, a major felony for which there is no statute of limitations. However, the fact that the only witness is EJ, an admitted drug dealer, would make prosecution difficult.

Pushing their luck.
  • Clyde dared to threaten the whole DiMera family. What ever happened to Stefano's small army of thugs? Have they all retired to live on their DiMera hitman's pensions?
  • Leo actually drugged Sonny? Doesn't he know that if Victor learns about this, he might just get strung up by his thumbs.
Question: If the new bear is named Duke II, will the toy dog be named Pookie II?

Tell that to Hope. She was cleared on shoddy (and faked) video evidence of a murder she actually committed. I think Clyde will be OK (no matter what most viewers want).
 
I don't know how many of you read the summary help topic. At times, volunteers have to
post summaries later than the usual time. We post that in the topic.

The summary for May 25 will be posted around 4 central time... thanks.
 
so... the little girl playing Holly... is very cute. HOWEVER, if the producers are telling her to talk like a baby, shame on them. if she's doing it herself, they need to ask her to stop. She shouldn't sound like that if she's a truly proud A/B honor roll student in grade school. It just came across annoying, much like our baby talk Sarah. I just don't like it. But the actress is adorable and I'm glad to see her on screen.

Speaking of Sarah, she is really on my nerves...that's all, if I started to get into why, we'd be here all day.

Belle and EJ... just. no. but I guess if they *have* to put Ej with someone... better someone he hasn't been inappropriate with. Maybe he and Jan will fall in love and ride off into the sunset never to be seen again.
 
I thought that Holly would be older than she appears to be. She did sound more like a toddler than a child that is in school. I can't remember how long ago she was born, but kids seem to age pretty quickly in Salem.
 
Isn't Rafe rushing a proposal? I don't remember how long they've been together but I wonder if Nicole is ready for this.

I had to agree with Sonny when he told Leo the fruit was disgusting and so was he. I don't know what Leo's end game is for Sonny, assuming he has only drugged him, not killed him.

Will Eric put the priesthood on hold again, while he has an affair with Sarah? Watching Sarah and Xander go through the deception and lies about the baby the first time was awful. It's unbearable to watch it again. Why are they doing this same thing to Xander again? :cry:
 
Agree about Sarah. Ugh. I'd rather see Xander with lying, possibly murderous Gwen. She'd be THRILLED to be with him. Sarah was one snooty look away from dumping him for most of their relationship. After a point, it's just mean. To bring back snooty Sarah is ruining the Xander scenes, which are usually my respite from Days' foolishness.
 
So tired of Leo. He needs to go, and he can take Sarah with him.

Eric needs to be a priest or with Sarah, if she must stay. I do not want an Eric & Nicole re-run. It never ends well.

EJ and Belle is absurd yet kind of intriguing, if only for the drama it will later cause.

I can't believe Clyde and Nancy are the best thing about this episode!
