Days of Our Lives
Wednesday, November 21, 2012
A Happy Thanksgiving week to us all from Days.....o.k. I take it back...for me, anyway, as this is another EJ free day, which means an entire EJ free week at last! However, not too happy for many of our Salemites. Replay of Will meeting Gabi in the Square, announcing he got most of the money, still needs about $50, and then spotting his father standing there, asking what is going on. Will makes up some lame excuse about a school project he & Gabi are working on. Lucas thinks that is awfully expensive project, and decides to talk with Will privately. He takes him just a few feet away, but really only tells him about talking to Sonny, and then apologizing to Will for his behavior. He admits that Will was right, that if Will had been with a girl, he would have reacted differently, and is sorry. He only wants Will to be happy, and obviously Sonny make him happy, so that is all that matters. He tells Will how much he loves him, and that Sonny said the same. This touches Will, father & son embrace. Will goes to Gabi's side, she has heard it all, and they have to leave. Lucas has them wait, they are short some money for their project, and gives them $60.
Nicole is with Father Eric, evidently having told him all that has happened, all she has done. She is uncomfortable with his talk of God, with his collar, and quickly becomes self-deprecating, which Eric halts. He knows her, and though she doesn't want to hear God talk, if she was just open to it, she would be amazed at the change and how it would help. She teases about him being celibate, he talks of her inability to apologize for anything, she agrees it is hard for her. She asks how he became a priest, he talks of going to Colorado to start life anew, he was a photographer, Denver did not offer all that much for him in that area. He got a news assignment, went to the Civil War in the Congo, witnessed a lot of horrible things. He just wanted to make things better. And it happened slowly, he began going to mass again, then remembering all he learned and was taught as a kid. They talk some more, reminiscing over a photo shoot, where she still owes him apologies for 4 things. We don't know what they were, but there is a bit of a flashback...shots of her on the beach. She smiles, says she retroactively apologizes to him. He notes that she has yet to make things right with Jennifer, and with this Daniel Jonas. Nicole thinks perhaps they would not think differently of her. Everyone hates her, Eric assures her he doesn't.
Well, as good excuse as any for Salem's females to get together. Jennifer is evidently hosting the gettogether, Hope is helping, and just in case we forgot, or have not heard her say it before, calls Jennifer "Cuz". First to arrive is Billie, who apologizes to Jen for making assumptions. All is forgiven. Next to arrive are Kayla & Adrienne, everyone with a book in their hands. Yep, they seem to have a book club. Kayla mentions Caroline doing so well, with Hope chiming in that she may be home sooner than they thought. And now the gals are sitting all around in the living room, drinking tea, chattering away, and Billie gets asked why she picked the next book in particular. Guess what it is? The Scarlet Letter. Billie says she read it in high school, but loved the story. She thinks Hester Prine a woman ahead of her time. Would it not be something if nowadays, the present day females had to wear a shirt with a big scarlet A on it? Everyone is nodding and agreeing. Hope wants to know just why Billie loves this book. She laughs and says...cause it is about "forbidden love". (Can we all see where this is all going?? And for those who don't know about the scarlet letter, Hester was forced to wear a Red letter "A" on her forehead, I believe, to indicate she was an adulteress)
At the Pub, Sami is apologizing to Nick, thought Gabi had told him about being pregnant. No, she had not, he is still trying to absorb this. A frustrated Rafe comes down, loaded for bear, asking Nick if he knows where Gabi has gone, but Nick has not seen her. She may have gone down the back stairs. Rafe goes to the kitchen to see if anyone knows anything, Sami tries to make excuses for the impatient Rafe, worried about his sis. Rafe returns, no one saw her, knows anything. He decides to go back to Gabi's room, in case she returns via the back stairs. Nick calls Will, leaving a message that he knows they had a school project they were working on, so please tell Gabi to call him, it's important.
Hope sits in Father Eric's office, happy to see him, happy he is back in Salem. He mentions being back in time to oversee construction of the school! She finds an earring on the floor, he notes it probably belongs to Nicole. Hope goes into Mother Bear mode, telling Eric to stay away from Nicole, she is bad news. He lets her know that Nicole is mourning the loss of her child, that they were catching up with what has gone on in their lives, and that Nicole feels everyone hates her, and just needs a friend. That does not move Hope at all, She complains about what Nicole did to Jennifer, and figures all this is not over, her gut instinct tells her this.
Will & Gabi arrive at the clinic. She is quiet, is given papers to fill out. Will asks if she is sure. She says yes. Before she can start writing, he tells her that if, at any point, she changes her mind, it is o.k. They will deal with it, it will be fine. She hands the papers in, and soon is called in. She tells Will she is glad he is there, wishes he could be inside with her. He promises he will be right there, he is not leaving.
A hesitant, seemingly shy Gabi goes with the nurse into a room, is told to undress, put on the hospital gown. That they first will do a sonogram to see how far along she is. Later, she is in the gown, as another female doctor comes in with the first one, shaking her hand, telling her she will be the one who will be doing the procedure.
Nicole is in Horton Square, comes up the infamous staircase, flashes back to arguing with Jen and falling down the stairs. She then flashes back to Jennifer coming into her hospital room, sincerely apologizing for badgering Nicole the way she did, wishing she take it all back if she could. Nicole shakes her head, and strides purposely forward.
Back at the Pub, up in Gabi's room, Rafe paces, talking of how this is his fault, he wasn't paying attention to her. Sami says no, that is not the way it works. Rafe comments on how close Gabi was to Arianna, misses her. Sami notes that Gabi knows he loves her, and would do anything for her. He agrees, picks up a picture of Gabi & Nick, as Sami notes Nick loves her, was so worried when Gabi fainted and was in the hospital. She was there, she could see it. Rafe admits he loves Gabi, would give up anything for her and he did. He gave up Sami in order to save Gabi, and it did not do any good. He lost Sami anyway. Sami is unable to get any bars for her phone, wonders if Gabi would mind if she used her computer to send an important e-mail. Rafe figures it would be o.k. Sami sits down at the computer, presses a key to get the screen to light up, and gasps as she sees what comes up on the screen. Rafe comes over, and they both stare at the clinic website, with Rafe mutter, oh no, Gabi, no.
At the Horton house, Jennifer has bid all her guests good-bye, Adrienne being the last, reminding Jennifer that they will be seeing her & Abby tomorrow for Thanksgiving dinner. Adrienne leaves, Jen goes into another room, the door handle moves, and in comes Nicole, key in hand. She looks around.
Jennifer comes into the living room, not noticing Nicole standing off to the side. Nicole comes up behind her, Jen turns around, and both stare at each other.
