Days of Our Lives
Thursday, May 16, 2019
Claire wanders the living room, talking aloud about how Haley ruined her life, is leaving the country, but for some reason she is the bad guy. She starts throwing figurines across the room in anger, as Ciara arrives, wanting to know what is going on. Claire does her usual evading, telling part of the truth, but painting herself as innocent of any wrong doing. Ciara sympathizes, comforts, and then eventually helps Claire to start cleaning up. Claire finally admits what she did, and giving the recording to Eve. Ciara understands, more comforting, then they pick up pieces of smashed stuff, Ciara even figuring she might be able to mend one. Claire starts to say it isn't all she did, there is more, even to Ciara, who shushes her, has forgiven her, no need to rehash. They hug, tho Claire looks contrite.
Melinda explains all to Haley, even with Agent Smith harping on them getting going. She was 17, still in China, going with a boy from prominent family, far above them. She did not even want to admit to herself she was pregnant, kept hiding it, til one day Mama caught her unawares, saw her. Baba (Daddy) had a fit, Melinda had brought shame on the family. (father never told....was to marry a gal from prominent family). Mama, against his wishes, announced she was pregnant, took Melinda to a friend's home in far south where she gave birth. She was able to hold Haley then, but Mama came, took her. Melinda went to America, not welcome in their home.
JJ is trying to get Agent Smith to relent, but it is pointed out Haley was born in China, and Melinda was not yet an American citizen, even tho she is now. She goes to call the pilot, Melinda is apologizing, was shocked when Haley arrived, did her best, but should have done more. They argue back and forth, Smith comes with an agent, all are in the square now. Tripp rushes up with a duffle bag with Haley's belongings, she thanks him, hug.
Jennifer is finishing typing her story, at the Pub of course, why go to Spectator office? She gets the notice the results are in. Abe arrives, says it wasn't good news for him. Jen is sorry, Abe says the voters have spoken. He has to call Jack and concede.
Jack & Eve in bed, all giddy, he won, is now mayor-elect. Eve gloats, Abe calls, concedes, hopes Jack does right by the town of Salem. He doesn't even reply, just says thanks, hangs up, off to victory party. Eve suggests she join him in the shower.
Ted is sympathizing with Hope over the divorce. She says no, he really is not sorry, doesn't want to talk about it with him. They end up going out for a drink, or dinner or something, and run into Jack & Eve. Hope has a few words about Jack's vendetta against Haley, who is now on her way to China, all alone on a plane. She berates Jack a bit, who says he has realized his first thing to do when he takes office. He tells Hope she will be fired, unless she hands her resignation in first. Nope, she won't do that. Then she is out. Ted says if she goes, so do I. Jack tries a bit to convince him to stay on, needs someone like him, …......but so be it. Eve says worry about this later, in fact after you take the oath, you can announce Hope is fired. Off they go.
Abe is talking aloud to Lexie, wishing she was there with him now. Along comes Kayla. They talk, she tells him to come inside, have a drink. He says no, but then agrees, they sit and talk, drink, toasting Jack & Eve failing.
Over to Hope & Ted, also drinking wine, yakking away. She is talking of Rafe, how he could always make her laugh, lame jokes, even in stressful situations. She seems to be feeling her wine.....anyway, she decides she is going to sign the papers, takes out a pen. She had these drawn up, she SHOULD sign them, and she does.
Jennifer is walking thru park, sees Melinda on bench. She stops, says her name. Melinda turns around, Jen is wide eyed, ...what are you doing. Melinda is holding a gun.
JJ, Agent Smith, Tripp, Haley, the other agent are in the square. Haley tells Tripp she is so sorry for all trouble she caused. She puts duffle bag on her shoulder, Smith tells the other agent to get Haley into the van. Suddenly, JJ pushes the agent, Tripp falls against him, JJ grabs Haley, and takes off running, the male agent getting up, giving chase. Tripp looks at the escaping JJ & Haley, smiles.
