Square: Craig and Leo talk about their prenup. Leo looks pouty.

Horton House: Jennifer is thrilled about how Xander has tended the garden. Jennifer warns Xander against seeing his bride, he reminds them of what happened with Sarah when they followed that superstition. Xander explains there will be three grooms at their wedding. Jennifer is shocked by the turn of events in the Craig/Nancy marriage, even though she never liked Craig (because of what he did to her brother).

Police Station: A "disguised" Gwen and Abby recap the Ava story. Gwen lies about why she's there. Abby lies to get Gwen to leave. Then Abby steps into the interrogation room, where Ava says she needs a deal to give the murderer the dirt on her sister.

Salem Inn: Leo and Craig kiss. They have to get ready for their wedding in a few hours. Leo confesses to his attempt to bed Xander.

Outside the Pub: Nancy gets a peptalk from Bonnie (the sight of whom we are thankfully spared) before entering to meet Clyde. She tries to leave, but Clyde sees her. They chat. She introduces herself as Nancy...Miller. He says she's prettier in person. He is honest with her about his record; she thinks for a moment, but it's not a dealbreaker. She tells him about her ex-husband's wedding and invites him to escort her. He suggests she go alone, and let people see a strong independent woman. Clyde likes her, and she likes him. He wants her all to himself.

Horton House: Xander and Jack will wear tuxes, protecting Jack's bony knees. Gwen arrives, and Jack will give her away. Xander and Jack leave; Gwen tells Jennifer she's happy she'll be at the wedding. Gwen apologises for her pre-paternity reveal behaviour, and states that she has changed with Jack's acceptance. Jennifer accepts Gwen into the family and they hug as Abby enters. Gwen leaves to get dressed. Abby tells her mother she got dirt on the bride. This shocks Jennifer, who gets a recap of why Abby doesn't have all the dirt yet. Abby, who has committed murder and fraud, is worried about what else Gwen is planning. Gwen enters because she needs help with her zipper. Jennifer frets after the daughters leave.

Salem Inn: Jack and Xander arrive. Jack thought the four men should have a friendly drink before the wedding given the history between the Deveraux/Wesley families. They talk about Nancy's pain. Craig hopes she can find someone to start the next chapter in her life. Craig and Leo toast each other, then Xander and Jack toast Gwen. They all toast to love. Later, Craig questions Leo's taste (re: Xander). There's a knock on the door; it's Xander in a towel, he needs toiletries. Xander zips away, Craig and Leo admire his form. Craig recants his questioning Leo's taste.

Townhouse: An ex-prostitute and a drug addict recap the Leo & Craig prenup situation. The ex-hooker wonders if perhaps her father and Leo are actually in love, the drug addict thinks this is not possible. Then he remembers the Jackie Cox plot point, and relays that Sonny and Chad are hunting Cox down in New York. The drug addict hasn't told his daughter about the ex-hooker he's dating. They start kissing when Sonny sends a text. The boys have the goods on Leo. END
 
I will be 100% shallow in saying the best thing about today's show was toiletry free Xander..... and of course his towel.....

sidenote... why haven't Rachel and Holly been sent away to boarding school?

Thanks Jason for summerizing yet another 36 minutes that didn't move forward any story
 
Leo and Craig panting after Xander WAS funny, but maybe the last time they will be laughing when Leo is exposed (but not exposed like Xander usually is). Good product placement for the towel if they ever show the manufacturer's label.

Slap me upside my head, but it was sorta sweet when Clyde and Nancy were getting along so well, and I think he does genuinely like her; however, all that being said, she just cannot get involved with him. He is NOT a changed man. Maybe Kate will see them together and warn Nancy before it's too late. Clyde sure can be suave and charming, but we know better.

As I have said before, there could have been a good redemption story with Gwen, but she will soon be "voted off the island" when all her misdeeds come to light. Poor Xander, another broken heart is in his future.
 
I really like Nancy......& I really like the actor James Reade, who plays Clyde. I hate the Craig is gay, & hooking up with Leo story. So........as much as I used to love Craig/Nancy, currently, I would like Nancy to be happy. And if a bit of a flirtation with Clyde, (who is really bolstering her self-esteem) would make her happy & a bit more confident.....good!
And just for the record......the ex-OPERA SINGER, & the man who can't keep his zipper up did have a good converation about the pre-nup.
 
So Craig thinks that Leo is selfless. Since he's such a good judge of character, imagine the people whom he'll soon be hiring at University Hospital.

Dr. Ben Walters: "He says his part-parts-buying days are far behind him, so let's give him a chance."

Dr. Fynn "Dingo" Thompson: "This guy is a keeper. Unlike the late Dr. Daniel Jonas, he's a brilliant physician who's outgrown drooling on attractive women patients."

Clyde: "My ex, Nancy, says that he's honest and open -- just the kind of man we need to head the hospital's public relations department."

Finally, I agree that Xander and his towel were the highlight of the episode. It's a good thing that Xander's towel didn't slip. Craig probably would have suffered a heart attack.
 
Thanks you Jason for doing the summary today.

I might have to start drinking when I watch the show. Craig was so happy Leo signed the prenup and said
he loved Leo more. Than Leo said Craig was the love of his life.

We found out Xander has been keeping the flowerbeds nice at the Horton House. Maybe he's getting
paid to it. I would pay him to work in my flowerbed especially if he just wore a towel :)

Abby told Jennifer about Gwen hitting on the head. Then Jen said Gwen hasn't changed. Of course not,
how many people have actually changed in Salem? They do change clothes and bed partners.

Brady's red shirt matched Chloe's red dress.

Should we guess what Chad and Sonny found out about Jackie and Leo? Are they married?
 
Thanks for the write up since an inch of snow left me without power and internet all day. :rolleyes:

I would like Nancy to have someone fun to be with. Although if Clyde does something to her I think her reaction could be entertaining. I like the Clyde actor too so I'd be happy with him cleaning up. Also dropping the accent.
 
I disagree......Jen had been injured & yes, became addicted to the pills she was taking to help with the pain, as has happened to many others in the same situation. She overcame it, and is careful about what she takes since then.
