Days of Our Lives
Friday, Sept. 2, 2016
While the show seemed a bit slow today, good acting from all involved, as the mourning for Abigail continues. Jennifer is alone at home, walking around, finally going to sit on the floor, in front of a box of what seems to be Abby memorabelia. She takes out a music box, opens it, takes out a few baby pictures, which at first make her smile, but then, she holds one as she bursts into tears. Knocking at the door, it is Lucas & Adrienne, claiming to come ask a favor, but Jen knows they came to check if she had another relapse. She thanks them, says she already was at a meeting this morning, will go to one every day. They invite her out to brunch, she agrees, closes the music box and hurries out the door.
Chad is at a chapel, sits down in what appears to be the only pew, gets up to nearly leave, but returns. He sits down, and begins to talk to Abby, noting she used to pray, so he will, too. He does a heartfelt monologue, as he talks of how much he loved her, how he feels he failed her, apologizes for that, promises to always take care of their son. He intends to make DiMera Enterprises legit, Belle is going to help, make it something great for Thomas.
Philip comes to visit Belle, gives her the check for what she gave him to start up the record label He also gives her the news that Chloe is pregnant, he is the father, that they saw quite a bit of each other before he returned to Salem. Belle's face falls a bit. She figures he is cutting her out of his business completely. Yes, it is better for them all. He makes some reference to hoping Belle knows really what she wants, she answers she does, a life with Shawn. Philip leaves.
Claire arrives at Chloe's, has done a whole slew of errands already, even brought Chloe animal crackers to help with her nausea. They talk of Claire's song, Chloe thinks Claire has real talent, loves that song. might even sing it herself on the prospective album, but it will be Phil's call on that. She will talk to him.
Later, Chad & Belle meet, she has decided she will come in with him to "redo" the DiMera business, it is a big challenge for such a corrupt and disreputable company. He gives her his business plan, which will change the focus to more scientific & tech stuff. She is impressed. He mentions all the liquid assets being stolen by Sami, Belle gives no indication she knows anything. He asks where Sami is, she says even if she did know, why would she tell him? He smiles, admires her loyalty, hopes she will be as loyal to him. He always wants her honest & open with him. They walk in the square.
Jen, Lucas & Adrienne are in the square, sitting at a table. Jen spots a girl, her back is to her, but she jumps up, goes over, says "Abigail". The girl turns, "can I help you". Jen apologizes, thought she was someone else. Jen goes back to Lucas & Adrienne, hugs, as Jen talks of how she sees Abigail everywhere, the market, the street, just everywhere. Lucas notes he, too, saw Will everywhere after his death. He knows as time passes, this all will get better. Adrienne is offering comforting words, Jen is proclaiming wanting to be strong for Thomas, give him all the love and caring she can.
Chad & Belle come by, Chad says he is glad to hear that, it is what he wants, too. Jen wants to talk to him privately, Belle advises not, but Chad does anyway.
More or less in low, whispering voices, Chad & Jen argue once again about custody of Thomas, both noting the other is not capable, not strong enough yet. Jen is adamant that she realizes she could possible relapse again, she is grieving so much, and notes that Chad could, as well. She has a suggestion..that Lucas & Adrienne take custody, care for Thomas, even tho she has not talked with them about this, but she knows they would. She wants Chad to think about it. He doesn't answer, leaves immediately. Belle follows.
While they are talking, Ciara happens by, hurries into Club TBD, but comes back out again. A guy passes by, but stops, recognizing her. It is RORY. He says how he & JJ go way back, she wonders if he is expecting anyone. Nope, he invites her to some party, she declines, promised her mom to spend time with her. Some other time. O.K.
Philip is sitting alone, flashing back to making out with Belle. He calls Chloe, wants to see her now. They are together, talking of music, recording, mostly Claire. Chloe thinks she has potential, Phil does, too, but Claire is too raw. She needs time to get a thicker skin, etc. He gives Chloe a song, she sings some of it A Capella (no music)..something about Heavenly Roads. He thinks it perfect, just imagine in a studio. She worries about all this, during her pregnancy, he assures her nothing is going to really get going until after she has the baby and has recovered completely. Suddenly, he kisses her, she kisses him back. Non stop.
Chad sits with adorable Thomas, who pulls his daddy's nose. (made me laugh) He talks to him a bit, cuddles & kisses him, then calls Jennifer, telling her he made his decision. He will let Lucas & Adrienne take TEMPORARY custody of Thomas, Belle will draw up the papers. Jennifer thanks him profusely.
She hangs up, goes over to the music box, looking at the baby pictures again. She says aloud to Abigail that she knows she was not always there for her, but she promises she will be there for Thomas, always and forever. She takes the music box, winds it up, opens it to play, lays on the sofa, hugging a pillow. Doorbell.
Jen opens the door to find her mother, Laura standing there, arms outstretched, hugs, comforting words. Jen finally asks what she is doing here. Laura relies, "I have something to tell you about Abigail".
