I haven't been around on the boards in awhile and I managed to watch days today and I had absolutely nothing to do... so I figured I'd do a write up of Monday's show. I meant to post this way earlier today but forgot and now other's have posted different day ahead articles. I didn't want to just have this one go to waste so.... I figured I'd post it anyway.
- Chad and Gabi find that Andrew is gone. He must have escaped. Chad wonders what Andrew meant when he told him to ask Gabi where Melanie was. Chad eventually leaves Gabi behind to find Melanie.
- Melanie cuts her leg and Brady tends to her wounds. They are trapped underground as the tunnel have caved in on both sides. Brady gets a weird feeling and tells Melanie they must get out…now. Just then, Melanie notices that there is a crack in one of the pipes.
- Daniel tries to save Nicole who is stuck under a large pile of debris. And wouldn't you know it…she goes into labor.
- EJ saves Sami with Will's help. He wants to go out and save more people but Sami tells him that he must leave town…and she’s coming with him.
- Ian proclaims his love for Madison, and admits he only used Kate to get to the Dimera fortune. We don’t know that Madison dies but it seems like it’s a major possibility. Kate secretly listens to everything Ian told Madison and cries angrily in the shadows.
To start off the show we replay all of the scenes of the 'DAYSaster' from the last episode before the Olympics began. After all the explosions are finished, we see a close up of John’s face. He opens his eyes and looks for Marlena. Everyone in the ballroom slowly starts to stand up, make sure everyone’s okay. Everyone is covered in dust and debris and they all wonder what happened.
EJ is holding Sami and keeps losing his grip on her but he tries his best to hold on as she dangles.
Nicole is revealed to be trapped under many beams and pieces of wall. She screams for help. Daniel calls her name. Behind him in the ballroom: Jack and Jen find each other and hug, Bo and Hope are already worried about helping everyone else and making plans to rescue and help the injured. Kate asks John/Marlena if they have seen Lucas or Ian and they have not. Kate decides to go looking for them. Jack and Jen suddenly realize that Cameron is still there and he says that he was going to meet Abigail in the elevator. The trio run to the elevator and find Abigail trapped inside. Jack and Cameron try to pry the doors apart but they’re not strong enough.
Bo and Hope find Roman in the streets who is somewhat delirious with a head injury and he collapses onto Bo. Back in the warehouse, EJ is holding Sami with two hands and he promises her that he will not let her die. He tells her that he is going to swing her back up onto the platform with her help. Down on the ground, many wires are short circuiting and sparking, so even if Sami survived the fall she’d be electrocuted. EJ tries to swing her but it only makes him lose his grip on her and one of Sami’s hands comes loose.
Ian slowly gets up and finds Madison lying motionless surrounded by glass shards. He crawls over to her and asks her to open her eyes. He touches her and finds his fingers covered with her blood.
Underground in the tunnels, Chad realizes that Andrew is no longer lying on the ground. He must have escaped. Chad now wants to find Melanie as quickly as possible. He asks Gabi if she can walk and she says that she can, but she’d like a moment to get her bearings. Chad thinks for a moment and then asks Gabi what Andrew meant when he responded “Ask your friend.” To the question, “Where’s Melanie?” In another section of the tunnels, Brady asks Melanie if she’s OK. He gets off of her and pulls some debris off of her. He wants them to get out fast but Melanie’s leg/foot got caught and cut in some debris and she’s bleeding badly. Brady takes off his jacket (I was hoping he’d have to use his t-shirt as well but alas, we are not that lucky this time!) and uses it to cover her cuts. Melanie is in a lot of pain but she’s trying to be strong. Melanie is scared that they’ll be another explosion so she wants to get out as fast as possible. They discovered that the cave has caved in on both sides and they are trapped.
Kayla has turned the pub into a make-shift hospital as the roads are all shattered and they can’t get cars through town. Kayla and Will tend to Roman who is unconscious. Bo/Hope want to go back and keep rescuing more trapped citizens. Kayla asks Will to stay and hold some gauze on Romans head while she goes to help Bo and Hope. John enters the pub carrying an unconscious Lucas over his shoulder.
In the ballroom, Daniel hears Nicole. She tells him she thinks she’s going into labor. Daniel stars clearing off large pieces of debris off of the pile where Nicole is. She says she thinks she’s having contractions. Daniel wants to know how often she’s feeling them. She replies about every 10 minutes. Daniel keeps her calm, noting that it’s probably just stress or Braxton hicks. Nicole starts crying and tells him she was having them before the explosion even happened. Nicole screams that it’s too early for her to be having contractions. Bo comes in and helps Daniel remove debris.
Outside of the Brady pub, John tells Marlena he loves her and goes off to help save more trapped people and look for survivors. Marlena will stay at the pub to help treat anyone who is injured. Inside, Will helps Kayla tend to Lucas. When he wakes up, he tells Kate and Will that he’s going to go find Sami because she’s still at the warehouse. Kayla tells him he’s too weak and Will says he’ll go find her. Despite everyone yelling for Will to stay, he runs out of the pub.
Sami asks EJ to let her go so their kids don’t lose both their parents. EJ starts to cry. Sami tells him she cares about him (it sounds kind of sweet but what came from her mouth sounded more like “I hate you, you stupid jerk!” than “I care about you.”) She asks him again to let go but he refuses.
Abigail is worried that the cables are going to snap. Jack wants her to open the safety hatch on top of the elevator and try to climb out. She tries to jump up and reach it but tells him that she can’t reach it and it wouldn’t open anyway because debris fell on it. Jack turns around and gets a really strange expression on his face. His hands start shaking oddly. He calls himself down and tells Abigail that they’ll try to get into the elevator from the floor above and get her out (Honestly his plan didn’t make a lot of sense to me).
Jen says she’ll stay with Abigail to keep her calm. Before they can leave to go to the next floor, something happens that causes the roof in the corridor to fall down. There is a small fire in front of the elevator doors. Cameron grabs a fire extinguisher and puts it out. Jen calms Abigail down. Meanwhile, Jack is on the floor mumbling about wars and bombs as flashbacks are occurring in his mind. Jen calms him down and reminds him that his daughter needs him. They breathe together.
They need to work on the consistency of their blood!!
Guess I better restock the barf bag section at the Spectator Store in case we have a run on them.
They should have tried pairing her with Lucas before they decided to fire her. There could have been a very interesting dynamic with Kate on one side and Sami on the other. Glad Ian is there for Madison in any event. Hope Nicole and her baby will survive.
