Episode #11,274 Taped 12/18/09 Director Herb Stein
A rather emotional episode on all fronts today…..
However, a short snynopsis of Wed. 2/17/10 show first…Melanie was rushed into surgery after being shot by Carly, Daniel operating w/Lexie assisting. Evidently she went into cardiac arrest. Meanwhile EJ has gotten some of Sydney’s baby clothes, which Anna has washed to get rid of DNA (??) but have some of Sydney’s blood on them from a nosebleed she had incurred at some point in the past. He takes them down to the pier, throws them in the river, where they are eventually found and identified as belonging to Sydney.
And on to Thursday… In the O.R. .Daniel is desperately working on Melanie, telling her to hang in there, seemingly to no avail. He finally asks for time….a nurse says 10 minutes (!!) he asks Lexie if they should call it. Out in the waiting area a sort of quiet bedlam. Vivian is insisting Carly be arrested, that she because she missed her intended victim, someone else is at death’s door. Carly is talking of protecting Melanie from Viv, that she was about to smack her over the head with a lead pipe, Vivian denies, Kate comes waltzing in with Lucas, agreeing that Vivian did plan to off Melanie. Victor is silent, Philip worried. Vivian is telling Phil how much she adored Melanie and would not hurt her, Kate is telling him Viv is a liar, he tells both to shut up.
Lexie comes out, somber face, but says the surgery is over, she still needs blood, Carly volunteers, talking of having negative blood as Melanie probably does. Victor gets hold of Vivian, warns her that her life will be over if anything happens to Melanie, that he had warned her previously, and his son’s happiness means everything to him. Carly & Bo seem to be in another area, where she tells him everything that happened, including the business about the comb, Victor switching it, how she took Hope’s gun, only for protection, but everything happened so fast, she still doesn’t know how. Vivan wants Carly arrested, Bo hesitates, she asks Abe, who tells Bo, if he doesn’t arrest Carly, he will have another officer do it. Then Abe tells Viv she is also arrested as a suspect, and HE reads her the Miranda rights. Lol. Now Bo finally is sorry, but has to arrest Carly, gives her the same “rights” speech, and cuffs her.
Kate has come up to Philip, so sorry for what has happened, yada, yada. Hugs as she tells him how much she loves him, always has. She later talks to Victor, wanting to know what exactly happened, and Victor changes the subject. She won’t let go, knows he was involved, is surprised he allowed Vivian back in his house, knowing she was out for revenge against Carly, babbling about him hiding evidence Viv was trying to do away with the love of Philip’s life. Victor retorts something about evidence being hidden when the love of Lucas’s life was nearly killed. Philip comes up, Victor assures him he had nothing to do with any of Vivian’s plans, that all he wants is a long and happy life for him and his bride. They hug.
Down at the cop shop, Bo is trying to question Vivian, who reminds him she has the right to remain silent. He asks a couple questions, she replies with “yada, yada, yada” and then with blah, blah, blah. (gee, these are my favorite expressions to use here, lol). He gets a call, then tells her she is free to go. Now we see the cuffed Carly, talking with Bo, moaning a bout how she should not have returned to Salem, Bo reassuring her all she has done was to protect her daughter, but Carly figures Vivian would never have come to Salem if she wasn’t there already. And all she wanted was to be a part of her daughter’s life, Bo again saying that it was not a mistake, and when Melanie comes out and learns everything, she will be happy to have the mother she never had. Now, in the empty room, Carly is pacing, and, of course, getting a visit from the very dead Lawrence. He is very happy, could not have done better himself. She is crying, telling him to go away. Eventually Bo returns, taking the cuffs off, has to take her to her cell.
Vivian comes into the Kmansion, looks around, talking out loud to Lawrence, telling him she has gotten revenge, may he now rest in peace.
Over at DiMansion, EJ, Sami & Rafe are awaiting word from forensics about the blood on the clothes. EJ fakes his positive attitude, insisting many girls have dresses like that, it doesn’t mean anything. Sami is very upset, Rafe asks if she wants to go home, no, she wants to stay cuz Sydney lived here, then she asks EJ to tell her stories about Sydney. He talking about how she likes music, he hums when she is on his lap, and she hums along with him, and nursery rhymes, mentions English ones (aren’t they all originally from England???). Rafe gets a call from forensics….with the bad news. The blood was Sydney’s. Sami gets more upset, rather hysterical, EJ is looking at her, (and boy, we know he is happy to see her this way) with his slight downturned mouth. Sami tries to be a bit positive, as they did not find a body, Rafe notes the depth of the river, and the speed of the current, they might never find any trace. Rafe has his arm around her, she goes on about how all the woman wanted was her money, and when she didn’t get it, she just “threw my daughter away”…just threw her away. She doesn’t know how she is going to tell the twins, Will, her family. Rafe asks if she wants to go, and they leave. EJ sits alone, flashing back to sitting on the sofa with Johnny, telling him that in a few weeks, he may be hearing some terrible things about his sister, but not to worry, they are not at all true. And soon he, his sister and his daddy will all be on an island together, but this is their secret and he can tell no one. Johnny nods in agreement.
Rafe sits at a table at the Pub, as Sami returns from the back. The twins are asleep, so is Gramma, & Will is out somewhere with Mia…so much for telling my family. She sits down, no, she doesn’t want coffee or tea. Rafe has to make some calls, gets up and goes to the side. She takes out her cell and calls someone, asking the person to come over, she needs to talk. And in a few minutes, in comes Lucas, telling Sami how sorry he is. (this is all perfect). She hugs him, he holds her, she talks of how Allie was asking when she was going to see her baby, she calls Sydney her baby. Lucas tells her not to worry about that now, that they don’t have to tell Allie til morning, and they will figure something out by then. They hear Rafe telling someone to drag the rive, all the way…and Sami just cannot stay there. Lucas agrees and hustles her out the door.
Anna is admiring a baby sunsuit, telling Sydney how she is going to love it, be in such a warm place, etc. A bit later, she is holding Sydney, as EJ comes in the door, takes Sydney from her, pops a kiss on her head. He evidently tells Anna all went well, but she is appalled that Sami thinks Sydney is dead. EJ repeats his mantra of making her suffer as he did. Anna says Sami already suffered with Grace’s death, and Grace really died, Sydney is still alive. Oh, no, Grace was not his child, Sydney is….but Sami kept Grace from him, he is keeping Sydney from her. He is going to provide a stable life for Sydney, something she would not have with Sami. Anna protests, she is a mother herself, and tho Sami has done awful things in the past, she doesn’t deserve to lose another child. Nope, EJ is adamant, his kids are much better off with him, and they are all going to disappear…now.

P.S. This show is the last time Lucas will appear in Salem, he is no longer on the show.
At the end of the show today, there is an "In Memoriam" for Frances Reid, who passed away a couple weeks ago. There are 3 pictures, 2 of her alone, one of her and Tom.
