In the Teen Loft, Claire is talking to Tripp on the phone before she goes to see Theo. Ciara comes in with her key, scaring Claire. Ciara announces she's moving back in. She is doing so despite her endless hatred of Claire, who is always trying to take things that belong to her. Despite this hate, Ciara feels that it would be preferable to living with the dictatorial Hope.

In Sami's room, Eric says Sami should have called him, they could have approached Will together. Sami was handling things, she claims. Eric cradles her as they talk about their tendency to trash rooms and she recaps her attempted re-murder of Will. She feels he's being too hard on her, while forgiving everyone else, and she tries to eject him from her room. He won't go, she breaks down again. He assures her Will is still Will, she frets, back and forth as he tries to comfort her, and she lets slip that she did something last night that was bad. But not as bad as her attempting to recreate her son's murder. He manages to comfort her without learning her secret, and she starts on about Nicole. Eric flees to return to work, but they still love each other.

In Paul's room, replay of Will surprising Paul with a kiss as Sonny approaches the door. Sonny knocks. Will answers. Sonny wants to know what Will's doing here, Will explains he wanted a non-sugar-coated version of his life. Sonny is upset Paul told him, Will exonerates Paul. Sonny admits they have much to talk about, and will do so, but now he needs to talk to Paul. Will says he and Paul are in the middle of something. Paul says they're done. Will thinks it's interesting that they have different perceptions of this meeting. Paul boots him. Sonny will be in touch, and Will doesn't doubt it.

In Theo's hospital room, Kayla overhears Kate asking Theo for forgiveness and asks Kate what she owes Theo. Kate evades, lots of blah blah. They're still waiting for a specialist for Theo's condition. Kate says money is no object, and wants Kayla to keep her posted. Kayla has questions about Tripp. Kate claims that she agreed to keep the Vitali money a secret (seriously, like that hospital board in debt to the Kiraikis and the DiMeras would give a fig) and rejects to Kayla's interrogation. More blah blah. Claire arrives, Kate bolts. Kayla tells Claire the specialist will be here tomorrow. Claire tells the comatose Theo that Ciara's back.

In the Square, Tripp is waiting tables after ending his (brief) conversation with Claire. Steve wants to know what Kate DiMera has on him. Tripp trips up trying to explain it away, Steve doesn't buy it, warns Tripp that Kate is bad news and pressures him to fess up so [Steve] can protect him. Tripp resists, but caves and explains how Theo and Kate each came to him to keep a meeting he walked in on secret, and how Kate blackmailed him using Kayla's guilt (over protecting Tripp) even though he was prepared to face the music to get him [Tripp] to hand over Theo's phone to her [Kate] so she could delete her messages (voicemails and texts) before the cops got the phone. Steve deduces that Kate is responsible for Theo's being at the warehouse. Steve vows to keep Kate from getting away with it while assuring Tripp that Kayla will be safe.

Back at the teen loft, Ciara has a delusion of Theo reading his letter and declaring his love. She declares this is what could have been, and smashes a picture of Claire and Theo. Later, she goes to the hospital and overhears Claire apologizing for their fight right before he left to be shot. Ciara asks Claire to leave, Claire begs her to come back. Ciara says that she just got to town, but Claire's had lots of Theo-time since the shooting. Claire doesn't want to upset Theo, so she acquiesces, and asks Ciara not to be a *bleep*. Alone, Ciara laments that she wasn't with Theo the night he got shot, because they would have been hanging out.

Back in Paul's room, Sonny tells him, "I can't allow you to keep hoping. We're done." Paul thinks for a moment he mis-stepped, perhaps with Will, perhaps in Memphis. Sonny says that those things don't affect it. It's not fair for Paul to wait, even though he is willing. Sonny loves Will, whether he remembers him or not, and he wants to be married to him. Sonny apologizes, hopes someday they can be friends. Paul doesn't want to be Sonny's friend, he wants to be his husband. Sonny says he already has a husband; Paul asks what if he doesn't want to be with you. Sonny is willing to wait, and even willing to accept that Will may get back his memory and not want him. It's in Paul's best interests to move on. Sonny leaves (slowly). Cue reaction pans (Sonny in the hall, Paul forlorn on the edge of his bed).

In the Square, Tripp sees Claire, asks why she left the hospital. Claire recaps the Ciara fit, but Tripp is distant. She apologizes for leaning on him too much, but before she listens to his problem, wants him to know Ciara's moving in.

By the Nurses' Station, Kayla tries to re-start her conversation with Kate, to no avail. Steve comes up behind them, lays slowly into Kate about how guilty she must feel re: Theo. Kate flees. Steve tells Kayla he wants to tear Kate's head off. Kayla wonders what's up, Steve says they have to talk in private because openly talking in public got them into trouble in the first place.

Back in la-la land, I mean Theo's room, Ciara lays the blame for Theo's shooting not on the DiMeras, nor JJ, but on Claire, because she hid the letter that would have prevented her leaving town. Ciara vows to make Claire pay for what she did to Theo.

Eric goes to the Townhouse to see Will, who does not anticipate getting along with his mother's twin.

In her hotel room, Sami gets a call about someone. She asks if "he" is alive.
 
The Partridge Family called. They want Kate's outfit back.

Thanks, Jason.

Kristen said EJ is alive. Maybe someone told Sami and now she'll
leave town to look for him.

It would be interesting if someone saw Rolf and told her.

I'm glad Tripp told Steve the truth about Kate. It was interesting Steve
told Kayla
we can't talk here. Will we see them in the park talking there instead?


I enjoyed Eric and Sami. Sami almost told him she slept with Rafe. Hopefully,
Sami will leave a big tip for housekeeping since she made a big mess.

Sad to see Sonny break up with Paul just in case Will remembers who he
used to be. Maybe Will won't want Sonny after he kissed Paul.
 
Kristen said EJ is alive.
When? The only appearance I saw of Kristen contained her saying that Susan could have had the real thing. That could go either way.

Frankly whatever gets rid of Sami would be OK by me. I still like the idea of her boarding a plane to find her ex and blowing up in the air. It worked for her mom. Hopefully this time it takes.
 
Kristen said EJ is alive.

No she didn't

I missed the first 5 minutes or so due to the Franken press conference.

I'm disappointed Sami and Eric didn't discuss her fight with Belle. I enjoy twin scenes though. Sami is only tolerable with Rafe, Lucas, her parents and her siblings.

Sonny can join Sami when she decides to leave Salem this time. Brady too.

Sonny wants Will. Paul wants Sonny. And Will seems to want Paul. Got that? It would be very Sami-like if Will's memory already returned and he's lying so he can pursue Paul.

I'm not here for Ciara being 90s Sami reincarnate. The hatred of Claire makes no sense. I felt so bad for Claire today. Ciara is basically Sami and Claire is Carrie. No thanks. And why aren't Hope or Shawn involved???

Lol at Will's comment to Eric at the end about him being like his twin.

So Sami's hotel room is clearly the townhouse set. I didn't like that final cutaway from Will/Eric at the townhouse to Sami in her room in front of the window. It looked like they were all on the same set.
 
It’s time for Sami to go back to Europe and pick up her kids and stay away from Salem.

I felt sad for Paul today. Why does Sonny want to give up what he has with Paul? He and Will were separated for a good reason. I can understand that he loves Will and perhaps feels guilty that he was not there for him when he was murdered. However Paul is a much better man and loves Sonny completely. Will, even without his memories, is not likely to want Sonny. I believe Sonny will end up alone. I hope someone new comes along for Paul. He deserves much better than this.
 
Was not liking Sonny today. He was pretty harsh with Paul. "We're done". You were 2 seconds away from being married!!! Now he's acting like Paul was just a fling, nothing serious. And Paul is such a good guy. When Sonny was leaving, I wanted him to say "Yeah, well, Will just kissed me!!"

I am not liking Ciara at all. Why when a young character goes away do they have to come back and be just awful? She's out for revenge against Claire now because it's her fault Theo was shot? Ugh. I was never a Theo/Ciara fan. I do not believe they belong together. Ciara only ever wanted Theo when he didn't want her.

Glad that Steve knows the truth about Kate. And how many times will she get caught saying she feels guilty, or will you forgive me? Please let her pay for this!! She gets away with way too much.
 
I half expected Ciara to go the full Scarlett O'Hara (from Gone with the Wind) and declare: "With God as my witness, I will never go hungry again!" :rolleyes: I know I said that I was willing to be patient when she first came back just a couple of days ago, but nothing irritates and bores me more then a character who stomps around with a chip on his or her shoulder the size of Mount Rushmore saying they "aren't going to be pushed around anymore!" when they were not pushed around to begin with.

Yes, Ciara went through some bad stuff, losing Bo and being raped by Chase, there's no denying that. But she wasn't the perpetual doormat she's trying to paint herself as either. I don't know what she's going on about and I have no sympathy for her whatsoever. This is not the best of starts I'm afraid.

I thought Kristen said something that Susan could have the real thing. I assumed EJ.
I guess not.
