Days of Our Lives
Tuesday, March 17, 2015

Eve has waited til everyone is gone, to waylay JJ, tell him his piece was beautiful, then to warn him again about staying away from Paige, but JJ has nothing to say to her, says he doesn't have to talk to her and won't. Eve begins berating him, Paige arrives. (She had run into Cole, who has made restaurant reservations for their date tonight, suggests a movie, & she suddenly remembers something she has to do, tries to call her mom). When Eve sees Paige, asking what she is doing there, Paige was looking for her. Eve tries to get Paige to leave with her, and pretends that she only was telling EJ how beautiful his music was. Paige wants to talk to JJ alone, Eve leaves, reluctantly.
She tells JJ his piece was wonderful, he talks of fixing the bridge as she had suggested, she says she remembers when she first heard it. He begins begging and pleading again, loves her so much, big mistake he made, blah, blah. She doesn't want to hear it, has to go, he wants her to meet his at the bench in the clearing where they used to hang out, so he can explain. *(egads, how many times is he going to say the same thing over and over). She just leaves. He mutters, "well, she didn't say no).

Brady is at home, a bit out of breath after his run, has come in via French doors (how convenient!) that he leaves open. Clint comes in easily, pulls his gun, Brady's back is to him, and shoots.........a dart into Brady's neck, and down he goes. (gee, seems to me we saw this with Eric, didn't we?) Clint takes Brady's wallet, tosses it after extracting the money and pocketing it. He then puts a strip around Brady's arm, ties it, then pulls out a hypo. He seems to be withdrawing blood.

Melanie & Theresa once again get into it at the hospital, with Theresa doing a great deal of insulting to Melanie, Daniel arrives, Whoaaah.......Theresa leaves, Daniel confronts Melanie, who claims Theresa started it. He wants answers, why was she investigating, she has to go, is meeting Brady at his house. Well, Dan is going to see Maggie, so he will ride with her, she can explain. Evidently she does, letting him know that she dropped it all after finding on the internet that Mandrake was a fertility specialist. (she does NOT mention Nicole). They are now at the mansion, go in, find unconscious Brady, call for ambulance, check him out, etc. etc.
Later, at the hospital, they are at bedside, waiting for toxicology, Brady finally comes to. He remembers his run, coming home, that is all. No, he took no drugs. Honest. Daniel gets a call, preliminary results are in. He leaves, she assures Brady she believes him.

Theresa comes home, Clint is waiting in the hall. She is going to change clothes, and they can then have some fun. She goes to change, he pulls out the vial of blood with Brady's name on it. Out comes a hypo, a vial of clear liquid, he fills it, stashes it all back in his little bag. She comes out in a slip, and they go at it on the sofa. In the throes of passion, while kissing her, he reaches down into that bag, and pulls out the hypo.

Hope & Abe are at DiMansion, all set to arrest Stefano, who is not there. Harold comes in, asks what they are doing. They make up some story, he lets them know everyone is not home, and they should leave. They do, Hope has figured out how to find the board meeting. She makes a couple calls to people.

Meanwhile, at the board meeting, a very angry Kate is accusing Stefano of setting her up, she mentions Victor. That girl wonders why she sought out the "enemy", but Kate claims Victor called her with the info that Stefano was looking to buy the tech company himself. Everyone is talking, is not happy, she put them in a bad place, SHin will be livid, will leave the board. One guy leaves the room, another thinks it is time for an immediate change in CEO, and nominates Stefano. Kate protests that they need 2/3 majority, and Shin, who holds a lot of stock, isn't there. But, the guy who left now returns, having Mr. Shin's proxy. They take verbal vote, all say aye, Kate says nay, and Chad...he says aye. Now a guard comes in to escort Kate out, they cannot conduct any further business with her there. She says they are all going to now be getting exactly what they deserve. Well played, she says to Stefano, and she is gone. Stefano has called Shin, smoothed things, talks of negating the sale, all is well. Everyone eventually leaves, Chad stays, a bit ticked at why Stefano did not warn him. Stefano says he doesn't trust him. That though he has forgiven him, he always will for his son, the trust has to be earned. He tells Chad he has to grow up. Chad mentions being out of a job, but no, he is to come to work every day, learn the business, so he will be all ready to assume his place when the time comes.

Eve finds Cole, soft soaps him with how glad she is he is dating Paige, he had better not hurt her, or else. Yada, Yada, Eve's usual warnings.

Abe & Hope are in the square, along comes Victor, Hope is glad Maggie got him out for some air. Small talk, Abe mentions Vic knowing Judge Pierce, tells him of the stay so Stefano cannot be arrested. Vic wonders how he could do that, the D.A. is down there fighting it right now. Hope doesn't want Vic to do a thing. Kate arrives, can tell them exactly where Stefano is. They leave, she sits with Victor, he learns she is out, but figures she will just wait for the right offer to come along. Vic mentions how well Lucas is doing at Mad World, Kate starts to smile, Vic says "but you would not want to usurp your own son, would you? Kate starts to say a "but"......however Victor gets a call, has to take it.

Abe & Hope rush into the board room, saying Stefano DiMera, you are under arrest. But the chair turns and it is Chad. Ooops, you just missed him.

Victor is on the phone with Stefano, saying something about all going as planned. Yes, perfectly. Victor chuckles, Good. Are you in the air. Oh, yes, he is. Stefano says he owes Victor, who replies that yes he does. Just don't you forget it. Stefano replies, not to worry, he won't forget. He hangs up, looks around the plane, smiles, sips his brandy.
 
Geez, what kind of security do the DiMansion and the K-Mansion have???? Abe and Hope waltz right into the DiMansion and start poking around. Clint breezes through the front door of the K-Mansion and shoots Brady with drugged dart of some sort. You'd think these tycoons would have big time security at their estates.
 
Security does seem lax. :) And won't the awesome Dr. Jonas find a puncture mark on Brady's neck where the dart got him? Or is he just going to see the puncture where Clint took his blood. Not really sure where this is going. I can see Brady's blood, Kristen wants to be sure it's his child but why Theresa?

It's becoming pretty clear that Eve has real feelings for JJ. Eww.

Indeed. Somebody should tell "cook" that allowing members of the Salem P.D. into the DiMansion is not a career-building move. As for Victor, he ought to take a cue from Mr. Burns on The Simpsons, who has fierce guard dogs ready to attack anyone who dares to jump the fence. If Victor had only done this, slimy Clint would have been turned into a chew toy. As for the Salem P.D., it was yet another very bad day -- ordered out of the DiMansion by Harold and undone by Victor's judge. At this point, nobody would blame Hope and Abe if they went back to doing what they do best -- socializing. It may have been a bad day for the Salem P.D., but it was a good one for Stefano, who once again demonstrated why he's known as "The Phoenix." That said, Kate will rebound, she always does. Finally, the less said about the absurd Brady-Theresa drugging plot and the interminable saga of Eve, Paige, and JJ the better.
 
Here is what is odd to me. Brady is taken to a hospital, is obviously undressed, and put in a hospital gown. But NO ONE notices the mark on his neck, or the the puncture spot in his arm while doing this? The man is unconscious, they have to hold him, etc. PLUS, being he is unconscious, don't they examine him? Yes, they did tests. And heck, they took blood.....but did not notice another spot? Sigghhhh.

This must relate to the magical healing powers that exist in Salem. Brady probably has no puncture marks for the same reason that Philip's leg grew back, Paul and Jenny have no surgical scars, and none of Salem's many past gunshot victims have any marks on their bodies
 
Kate royally got screwed today lol wow. Yeah, makes you wonder where she'll be staying; probably the Salem Inn. I think Victor and Stefano are working together to take down Clyde. However I see a different angle. Victor just gave the Devil his horns back and his empire. Stefano can easily double cross Victor, as they are enemies, or possibly even team up with Clyde. Play both the two.
 
Have to say, I loved coy Victor, talking of the bad week he was having, or offering to try and talk to Judge Pierce for Abe & Hope. But then, to Stefano he is talking, obviously having talked Judge Pierce into issuing that stay temporarily.....telling Stefano that the judge held onto that stay as long as he could, but the minute the wheels of the plane left the ground, that was it.
So, it looks as though Stefano's return to Salem was a very short one, he will be back on the phone again. Tsk, tsk. So, he will run DiMera Enterprises from afar, I guess.
 
Oh, i BET Stefano already has gotten wind of someone moving in on the drug trade that EJ had going, and either knows already, or soon will know that Clyde was involved.

But the thing is, he owes Victor, and Victor told him to remember it. So, since he helped Stefano regain his company, I have a feeling Vic will ask Stef to help take down Clyde. Both men are all about family.....and you do NOT touch family. THEY can.....not you. LOL
 
Is the board room simply Daniel's blue office with a different desk and paintings???

I can't believe that Victor did that to Kate. Hummm, wonder what else Victor has in mind for the former Mrs DiMera?

In the real world, Kate would have to pack her bags and move out, but I'm guessing her stuff such as it is, is now in the Salem Inn in her old room.
 
You know, Stefano said something to Chad a couple weeks ago.......about remembering the "end plan". And that is what Victor is doing. Clyde threatened Vic, called him an old man, has been, and threatened the rest of his family. Victor had already told him that family was off limits, but not to Clyde (who forgets he has a son in town).
So Victor now has retreated, is pretending to have taken his whipping, the warning, and sitting back in front of the fire. LOL
Never underestimate.
I think Vic was after Kate because of her "sleeping with the enemy"...both Clyde..and earlier, Stefano. He knew Stefano would be after her, since she pulled her little takeover on him, only a matter of time. And now...yep, bet he is going to call in his favor.

Meanwhile, those Eve/Paige/JJ scenes are super boring. LOL So are Theresa's tirades against Melanie. Green is not a becoming color for her, and yes, our Jeannie T. is green with envy that Melanie has Brady now.
 
Let's see if I got this straight: Stefano is back in the CEO seat but he still can't be in the country to oversee things and is just going to be on the telephone from time to time. As much fun as the battle of wits between Kate and Stefano was to watch it seems to me that it's much ado about nothing. Because really what's changed?

Clint/Brady/Melanie/Theresa: Yeppers they were on today. I just don't care about any of this. The dream is that someday I will care about but alas thus far that dream remains unfulfilled.

Let's see in the beginning the reason why Eve was so against JJ being with her little Paigie was because of his rap sheet. Enter Cole whom from what I understand has an even bigger rap sheet is just fine and dandy? Got it.

I know that this about the fact that Eve apparently is developing real feelings for the lad :sick: but surely the inconsistency is going to have to seem glaring. Oh wait, this is Paige we're talking about here so it's not like she's going to notice when when Eve starts saying "Sweetheart, why don't you spend more time with Cole? He seems like a really nice boy." Besides when you're beautiful like Eve is you don't need to be consistent right?
 
Oh, my JJ/Eve loving heart had its fill today with her dreamy scenes with him. :love::love::love::love:
Now if only her boring daughter would keep away from them so they can be together!!

Elsewhere in Salem, Jeannie T needs to get a life. I can't root for her anymore because she's been picking the fights with Melanie instead of being the bigger person & walking away. Silly. And "Melonhead" Melanie is no better.

New suggestion for recurring prop (like the Tabitha the Tablet, Flashie, Benchie, Snow White, Sofie, and Pinky): Bart the DiMera Dart Gun (Bart the Dart for short)

I am loving coy boy Victor.

Let me get this straight - the stuffy bunch that makes up the DiMera "board" loved that Kate made them a mint over the past quarter, but then the stock drops a wee bit (based on insider info no less) and they plotz? Oy vey!! Then they hand over the reigns to a WANTED CRIMINAL who didn't even show up in town when his precious "Junior" died, and who then promptly left town?!?!!?!? Only in Salem!!

I really want JJ to tell Paige the truth. And not just so he can be with Eve, as he truly wants and deserves and needs, but mainly because (as Carolyn Stoddard of the late Dark Shadows put it so well...) when is a blackmailer ever done blackmailing? The same logic holds true for Eve. Better to tell, and deal with the fallout, than wait for Haggifer to drop the bomb.

Dr McScruffy scolding his Melonhead daughter...TOO MUCH!!! (Thanks to LucyFan for the nickname "Melonhead" for Melanie, LOL.)

AND WHAT A BUNCH OF MISSED OPPORTUNITIES for using John today. He's a cop who could have been assisting Hope & Abe (though apparently his beat is Club TBD and junk stores that have been robbed) OR who could have been on the DiMera board as a shareholder (or does his discovery of lacking DiMera DNA also immediately forfeit his ownership of the company??) OR been notified/present in the hospital when his ONLY SON was struck ill? (Or, unimaginably, all of the above????!?!?)
 
And where was Rafe today?

I think Victor went after Kate as payback for Clyde attacking Sonny. She is sleeping with Clyde and he doesn't like that.

I don't care about Melanie, Daniel, Brady, Jeannie, Paige, Eve, Clint and Cole. And I too have no idea what Clint is up to. Nor do I care.

And how does Hope tell Stefano he is under arrest if she is not even in the same room yet?
 
Bart the dart :rotfl:

Jason, I'm glad your favorite couple was on just for you

Stefano owes Victor a favor. I bet it's name is Clyde

The way Eve kept looking at Cole, I wonder if he's going to
be next on her list.

Poor Brady, he got shot with a dart gun, drugged and his blood
was taken. I think we all can guess people will think he drugged
himself. Interesting how Mel thought Theresa's fault.
