Episode #11,124 Taped 6/8 Director – Phil Sogard
Melanie sits in the Java Café with a laptop, copying an url from a piece of paper, & Success….until Nathan comes in behind her, slams down the cover, and cautions her about cheating. Seems she was looking for answers to a nursing test she is to take, & she doesn’t think she would do well, but wants people who don’t think much of her to see she can do well. Nathan gives her a pep talk, telling how Maggie was in a car accident when young, lost her parents, was paralyzed, and how Bill Horton did his magic, operated on her and she could walk again. He brags about his great granddad, Tom Horton, and how people respected him and still do to this day, talks about always helping people, and that Mel should take the test on her own, she might surprise herself.
Brady comes into the K mansion living room, soaking wet after a swim (good excuse for being shirtless, I guess) looking for the towel he forgot to take outside with him. Victor scolds him for getting water all over, suggests a late breakfast at the Pub. Brady refuses, they go back and forth, Brady spills about the waitress he doesn’t want to see, Victor is ready to have Carolyn fire her, but Brady explains further how the woman just backed away when he told her he was a recovering drug addict. Victor knows he has been clean for over a year, praises Brady for being the man he is, and teases him about being a good catch. Later, Brady is dressed & they are leaving to have breakfast.
Rafe is unpacking a box at the apt. when Arianna arrives with Corn Muffins for him, and yes, containing jalapena peppers. (Oh, ugh! But to each their own). He tries to give her the doggie playing poker painting, she says no, but realizes he is moving in, and she is surprised only that he had not done this earlier. She is about to bring up Emily, he stops her, says just “don’t”, this is different. They talk a bit about her being alone, she likes it that way, uncomplicated. She mentions this guy who interested her, but no dice…..and when he asks why, she explains he is a recovering addict…….and Rafe is understanding. (???)
A dejected Melanie sits in the Pub, eating a chocolate sundae for lunch, as Arianna joins her. Mel has taken her nursing test, thinks she flunked. They talk about Brady a tiny bit, but though Arianna likes him, she admits she doesn’t want to date him because of his previous addiction. Mel explains he has been clean for ages…to no avail. Next, we see Mel meeting Brady in the park, starting to tell him all about her conversation with Ari, and how she really likes him. Brady stops her, tells her it is a no go, to butt out.
Mel returns to the hospital, running into Nathan who has the nursing test results. She is convinced she failed, goes on and on about no good deed going unpunished and never being rewarded, as he tries to get a word in, finally saying she HAS been rewarded, passed, and actually did quite well. Mel grabs the paper, looks at it, can’t believe it, says something about her photographic memory (which seems to come and go, lol) and is happy as a lark. Nathan reminds her she owes him a dinner…she smiles and says “your’re on”.
Stefano sits with a sheaf of papers, going over them….all relating to Rafe, evidently the “report” on him. He goes thru birth, family, top of the class in FBI, giving it up for Samantha….then leans back as he says, ahhh, Emily Hudson.
Sami is playing with the twins in the park, all spread out on a blanket, as Nicole comes round the corner, wheeling Sydney in her stroller. Greetings all around, Johnny & Allie scamper off to play in the sandbox, giving Nicole & Sami time to talk……and bond. Very good scenes here. Nicole mentions how Stephanie was willing to testify, and Sami must have been happy, and yes, she was. But the person Sami wants to thank is Nicole, she knows it was her that convinced EJ to let her have Johnny back. She says thank you so much as she grabs a rather startled Nicole in a hug….and then both are a bit embarrassed. Nicole says Sami had just lost a child, did not not deserve to lose another, they talk of moving on, of Sami having 3 wonderful children and Rafe. Sami admits Rafe has been a rock, she could not have made it without him. And then tells Nicole that she is a different person since losing Grace, she wants to let go of trivial and immaterial things, and wants Nicole to do her a favor. Call a truce between them. Nicole is surprised, but very much in favor herself. Nicole seems sad as she talks of how they both lost their little girls, which puzzles Sami, but Nicole explains about how, the day after bringing her home, Sydney stopped breathing, and she will never forget holding her, and at the hospital, wondering if she would ever see her again. Sami says it really is not the same, but Nicole manages to cover.
Rafe comes along, Sami goes to get the twins, Rafe talks a bit with Nicole, who gets a bit disconcerted when he brings up her grieving at Grace’s grave. Sami returns, and they leave. At home, she has put the twins down for a nap, is exhausted herself. Rafe gives her a bit of a shoulder massage, they talks of Grace, and always having her there in their hearts. Sami jumps up, grabs the poker doggie painting, and says she knows where they can hang it. She is getting used to it, sort of. LOL
Arianna is on the phone with someone saying yes, she got it. She is the manager. Everything is in place. She hangs up, Brady comes in, asking what a guy has to do to get some service around here. He sits down, she sits with him, saying something about starting over.
Nicole is at home alone, eyeing the booze table, about to make herself a drink, when Stefano comes in, chastising her as it is a bit early in the morning for a drink. She gives it right back, as he was supposed to take care of Rafe, who was asking her questions again. Both he & Sami promised to get him to back off, and both have not done it. Stefano wags his finger at her, he promised, he always keeps his word. And that she doesn’t have to worry about Rafe or Samantha. However, there IS someone she has to worry about.
