Days of Our Lives
Friday, August 22, 2014

Good show, the you know what hits the fan all over Salem, and some folks are playing violins for those who insist on blaming others. Lots of little scenes, rather a mish mash at times. Will lets EJ in, and has to listen to him rake Will over the coals, with the entire "what were you thinking, how could you do this to your mother, your siblings" speech. Will tries to defend himself, to no avail, as EJ brings up all sorts of things, including the fact that his father went to prison for him, and his mother risked a lot to steal the evidence linking him to it all, as he threatens Will that he could still go to prison for it. Will lets EJ know that it was Sami who gave Abby's name to Zoe, insisted it be inserted. EJ tells him finally that he threw his family to the wolves, something EJ himself would never do, as family always comes first for him.

Over at DiMansion, Sonny is giving Sami a hard time about giving Abigail's name to Zoe, but Sami is not going to listen to anyone feeling bad for Abby. They argue a lot, until finally Marlena arrives, wanting to talk to Sami. Sonny leaves, Marlena wonders why Sami did not come to her. Sami claims that John in the coma, Kristen returning...but Marlena notes that Sami knew long before and married EJ anyway. Yes, she did. Phones are constantly ringing, Sami ignoring, but she says she has to start answering. Marlena just says she is there for her, will do anything she can to help, and leaves.
Sami starts answering phones, trying for damage control, assuring callers that the editor blew the story out of proportion, she & EJ are happily living together, consult every day about the business.
EJ comes in, frowning, silent. Sami tells him about all the calls, and finally, that he is going to have to help her.
Brady is on the phone, desperately trying to convince a specialist to come see his dad. Evidently the dr. says no, despite Brady's pleas, and hangs up on him. Brady is frustrated.

At the hospital, Anne is gloating as she reads, practically dancing in the corridor. Daniel appears, she shows him the article, making her nasty comments, as Theresa arrives behind her. When she spots Theresa, she is giggling with glee, showing Theresa, who already read it, is not in any mood to trash Abby. Brady has come in, hears this, wants to know what is up, is filled in. He & Theresa sit and talk quietly...about his dad, his frustration. He is going to go for a run, he needs to clear his head. Reminds her about the papers coming from Vegas, and let him know when they arrive.

At the courthouse, Ms. Trask is astonished that the judge is debating the bail issue in regards to Kristen, who sits smirking. Kristen stands up, makes a plea on her own behalf, claiming she was coming back to Salem of her own accord, talks of loved ones, blah, blah. Roman is sitting next to Ms. Trask, who notes the flight risk, the wealth of the family, she disappeared before, how the Salem PD has been looking for her for so long. The judge listens, but sets bail at 1 million, says she has to give up her passport, and wear a tracking device. More smirking from Kristen. Roman tells Ms. Trask "Stefano bought the judge".
Later, as she is getting the tracking device attached, her lawyer brings her belongings. She wants her phone.

At the Horton house, Abby & Jennifer are preparing a statement to be released to the press, trying to make sure the wording is just right. Someone at the door, Abby goes, tis Daniel. He says a lot of nice things to Abby, is there to be sure she is o.k., knows that those who care about her are not judging her. Hugs. Abby decides she has to go see Will, who has left a lot of messages. Jen tries to talk her out of it, nope. She will do this. She leaves via back way, evidently Daniel has taken care of the persistent reporters who finally leave (we only hear him say so). He & Jen talk a bit, mostly in generalities, and finally he leaves. We see him outside the door, her inside at the door, both looking a bit sad and frustrated.

Abby is in the square, gets stopped by EJ, who tells her most people think he was the aggressor and claiming he wants it to remain that way. Nope, she tells him that there were two of them, she knew what she was doing, and that first time, at the cabin, she wanted what happened to occur. It was a mistake, but she made it..

Sonny calls Will, who is filling him in on how well the article is doing, the editor is evidently pleased, but no statements just yet. Talk later as someone is at the door. He opens it....and there stands Abigail, giving him a "look", but half smiling.

In the park, Brady is finishing his run, is a bit breathless, is in tank top and shorts. He stops at a bench, checks the timer attached to his arm, sits down, and decides for some reason to take off the tank top. When he removes it, he looks up, and there stands the ever grinning Kristen.
 
LOLOL........and yes, Ms. Trask mentions Kristen kidnapping someone, Kristen's lawyer interjects that it is not part of this hearing or something, and then kristen, in her plea to the judge, claims she was kidnapped herself to be brought here, when actually, she was on her way to Salem of her own volition. That Salem is where all those she loves are, and so she would not flee. LOL
 
Before Roman even said that the judge was bought by Stefano I already figured that out. Let not forget Marlena came and visited with Will trying to figure out why he did it. When it is all over Will will be sorry he ever wrote the article and what will he do when he finds out Sonny was the one who influenced him getting the job in the first place.
 
We saw Sami telling Zoe the mistress was Abby, but Will is only assuming it was Sami.
 
I saw the end of the hour and saw Will talking to Sonny on the phone.. Will is feeling all the glory of a cover story and Sonny is cringing at the idea of Will doing interviews on TV about it..
I did also Love Marlena's talk with Will ... and he is showing how much of a little boy he still is in his statement "no one is excited for me to have a Cover Story"
 
We saw Sami telling Zoe the mistress was Abby, but Will is only assuming it was Sami.

No, we never saw Sami actually telling Zoe who EJ's mistress was.

And yes, Will did assume it was Sami, but Sonny confronted Sami today and she didn't deny it was her. Had it not been her, I'm sure she'd have gotten right back in Sonny's face and denied it. But she didn't.
 
Truly cracked me up. EJ is disgusted??? With all that he has done??/ Family comes first for EJ, he says, so....is that why he had the affair with Abby while engaged to Sami? Is that why he had the affair with Taylor while married to Nicole, and also why he had sex with Sami while married to Nicole. Tsk, isk, he is throwing stones while in his glass house. LOL

I guess you are correct JS. We saw Zoe had the info and added the name.
 
I posted this in another thread:

Wow, EJ told Will today (Fri. 8/22) that he's not only appalled, but disgusted with him.

Exactly how low are you when EJ DiMera is appalled and disgusted???

I'd feel pretty darn low for a second because someone is actually saying they're disgusted by my actions, but then I'd consider who was saying it and
 
It was a real case of like mother like son today. Every time somebody gets on Will's case about his article, he always carries on about how everything he wrote was the truth. When people confront Sami about her war on Abigail, her response is always that Ms. Perfect cheated with EJ. Speaking of EJ, it's always remarkable when he speaks the truth, but he was on target when he said that Will was an unethical journalist. As for young William, he may just find that when it comes to journalism, he's a one-shot wonder. Trashy TruVista wanted his article because it had inside information about a juicy DiMera scandal. Given his shoddy writing, it's hard to imagine that anyone will want a Will article on any less sensational topic. Finally, Kristen shouldn't be so happy about the corrupt or clueless Judge Damon Thorpe of the Salem Superior Court granting her bail. So many people in Salem hate her, she would have been safer in Roman's jail.
 
So EJ puts family first? I agree he put family (his father) first once when he came to Salem with the intent to impregnate a Brady by any means necessary. Since then he's kidnapped his own daughter; pretended she was dead; forced the mother of his son to tell him she didn't love him; created a situation (theft of the Black pension fund) that was so explosive and violent that his son was thought to be dead; ousted (albeit for a short time) his father from his business - yep a real family man!

Said the same on twitter. The raping murderer is appalled over a slam piece. OY VEY.

Really bad show today. Sick of Dimeras, Sick of Sami, Sick of Abby/Will. I did enjoy Anne's happy dance though.
