Nicole is stunned when she runs into Xander at the hospital. She demands to know why he isn't in jail. A protective Daniel rushes in and attacks him. Anne calls in security to intervene, and Xander plays up his innocent act. He claims Nicole and Eric must've been confused about who tried to kill them. Anne tries to get Xander to press charges against Daniel, to no avail. Later, Daniel and Nicole meet with Aiden who has spoken with the police and gives them an update on the situation. Daniel then takes a shaken Nicole home, where she has a flash to almost making love to Eric. Daniel wonders what's wrong, and Nicole is tempted to tell all. Eric is livid when Serena tells him Xander has been set free. Eric argues Xander would be in jail if Serena had just come clean regarding the diamond smuggling. Serena relays what Xander said - she has no proof. Eric storms off to meet with Xander. Eric rips into him but Xander coolly maintains his innocence. Eric then goes to Serena, asking her to prove she is willing to do anything to help. Roman gives Marlena the upsetting news about Xander. Later, she runs into Hope, who decides to speak to Victor to see if he knows anything that can help put his nephew away. Earlier, Rafe interrupts Hope and Aiden's argument about Clyde. Hope confides in Rafe, who realizes Victor may have previously put a hit out on Clyde - and that's why Clyde had Sonny stabbed. Rafe then puts a stop to their conversation, reminding Hope it's best for everyone if they stop digging. Later, Rafe stops Clyde from running into Hope, not wanting to give Weston any reason to be suspicious. Paige makes plans with a man online, then goes to the lake, where she sees JJ speaking with Kyle. (Kyle unsuccessfully tries again to recruit JJ as a dealer, which is observed by the unknown man.) She decides to stir things up by flirting with Kyle. JJ sees and is completely jealous. When a guy bumps into him, JJ is quick to start a fight. Bev realizes why and takes off, disgusted. Meanwhile, JJ flees and is stopped by the unknown man - who then cuffs JJ. Earlier, it's revealed Kyle is working for Clyde, who is pressing him to recruit and expand.

Tuesday: 1.79/2,389,000
Roman and Special Agent Watts try to recruit JJ to go undercover to figure out who's behind the influx of drugs in Salem. JJ refuses - he's not interested in helping or doing the right thing. Paige executes her plan to scam her mother - she meets up with an older man, Donald, and has Daphne alert her mom. Eve comes rushing over and gets Donald alone. She pleads with him to stay away from her daughter, and when he hints at pimping Paige out, Eve flips. Donald says he'll leave Paige alone if Eve gives him $10,000. Eve hawks her ring and gives him the cash - only to find out he's in cahoots with Paige, who wanted to teach her mom a lesson in payback. A guilt-ridden Nicole covers when she tells Daniel she doesn't think she should move in after all. However, she's touched when he declares his love for her, and they end up making love. Nicole is more committed than ever to keeping her secret regarding Eric. Eric wants Serena to secretly record Xander and get him to admit his guilt. Serena balks, pointing out Xander would kill her if he found out the truth. Eric realizes she's right and goes back to insisting he wants nothing to do with her. He later confides in Marlena his hurt and anger regarding Serena. Meanwhile, Serena has another run-in with Xander, and she notes how he's ruined her life, yet he has walked away from all this unscathed. This prompts her to call Eric and tell him she's changed her mind - she'll help him nail Xander. Hope and Maggie question Victor about Xander, and he maintains the lie that he had no idea what kind of man he was. Hope senses he's not being completely truthful, while Maggie urges Victor to think of something to put Xander behind bars.

Wednesday: 1.78/2,422,000
Ben has a nightmare about Abigail making love to him but calling out Chad's name. When he awakens, Abigail asks him to attend the summer picnic with her and Theo - and Chad. Ben agrees. He stays behind while Abigail gets the food, and he confides in Clyde what's going on. Clyde thinks they need to find a permanent solution to get Chad out of the picture. Earlier, Clyde makes a homophobic comment to Sonny, then backtracks. Later, Sonny informs Abigail he's certain Chad has feelings for her. At the same time, Chad surprises Zoe by asking her to join him and Theo for the summer picnic. She agrees, and while she goes shopping for something to wear, Chad runs into Abigail, who is curious off her conversation with Sonny. But before she can question him, Zoe returns, and Abigail beats a hasty retreat. She returns for something she left behind in time to hear Zoe accuse Chad of inviting her to the lake just to make Abigail jealous. Stefano questions Victor about Clyde. Victor warns Stefano that Clyde is a formidable foe, and Stefano realizes Clyde was responsible for the attack on Sonny. They agree to wait for the perfect moment to take down Clyde. Kate and Justin continue to clash at work, but when he admits he filed for divorce from Adrienne, Kate shows a softer side. Earlier, Kate makes a few snide remarks to Hope and Rafe, who are clearly very chummy. Later, Hope and Rafe teach Ciara how to be an umpire, and the two former partners bond a little more. Will shows up at Paul's hotel room to try once again to get Paul to back off, but Paul refuses. As he leaves, Will learns Paul and Derrick are going to hang out. He makes a beeline to Sonny, convincing him to attend the picnic with him and Arianna. Just as Will hoped, they end up seeing a playful Derrick and Paul together, and Sonny reacts.

Thursday: 1.77/2,423,000
While hanging out with Derrick, Paul runs into Will and Sonny at the lake. Sonny is surprised to see them together, but rolls with it. John shows up and quizzes Paul about Derrick. Paul assures his dad they're just friends. He later tells the same thing to a disbelieving Will. Paul guesses that Will arranged this whole picnic just so Sonny could see him and Derrick together. Later, Sonny receives a call from Adrienne and has to cut the afternoon short. A glum Will tells Arianna the day didn't work out the way he had hoped. Abigail, Chad, Ben and Zoe spend time with Theo at the lake. Abigail doesn't feel that well, but she chalks it up to Theo spinning her on the inner tube. Back at Ben's apartment, Abigail, still feeling nauseous, suddenly realizes what might be the cause of her problem... and Ben questions this just as Chad shows up. Theresa isn't happy when she sees Brady bonding with the new young nanny. Later, Theresa makes a discovery, and after confiding in Anne, she realizes she might be able to use her discovery to her advantage. At the same time, John pays a visit to Brady and warns his son about Theresa. Adrienne wants to tell Sonny about her divorce from Justin, but runs into Lucas instead. They discuss how their relationship has become awkward... but Lucas offers support, and Adrienne is thankful to have a friend like him on her side.

Friday: 1.66/2,193,000
Nicole struggles over her guilt about what happened with Eric. However, she reaffirms her commitment to moving in with Daniel, resolving to leave the past behind her. Daniel and Nicole then run into Serena, who is waiting to meet with Eric to discuss how to trap Xander. While Nicole confronts Serena, a guilty Eric considers telling Daniel about his and Nicole's secret. Brady almost overhears Theresa's plan to use the nanny-cam footage to make Hayley appear unfit to care for Tate. However, Theresa is able to cover. Earlier, Brady fills Eric in on his arrangement with Theresa, and Eric offers hope that Theresa is working to be a better person. Ben and Chad are oblivious to Abigail's pregnancy panic. She takes off to buy a home pregnancy test and runs into Will, who finds out she may be expecting. She covers her angst about who the father may be as Will assumes it's Ben. With Will's support, Abigail takes the test. Meanwhile, Sonny busts Chad for still having feelings for Abigail. Will shares with Lucas his hope that therapy and time will save his marriage. Meanwhile, Sonny learns about his parents' divorce. He supports Adrienne, then wonders what's next with Lucas. Adrienne tells Sonny she doesn't really know. Later, Lucas and Adrienne reconnect over their love for Arianna, both seemingly content to see how it all plays out.
 
I think by now the suits realize that the baby boomers have aged, that the very young don't have the kind of spare $$$ that are needed to satisfy sponsors. There certainly have been tons of complaints about being completely ignored, "why should I watch, I don't count". And the baby boomers have counted big time always.

That said......thanks, cryin'. There it is, lst week of sweeps, and ratings fell. I do hope things improve ratings wise.......
I wonder if those who watch via their phones get counted?
 
I guess I don't think the ratings are really that bad. I fully expected them to be MUCH worse this summer. They've basically stabilized. Hopefully come late August/early September we start seeing a steady increase. I really think we can overtake GH. They gained back some viewers this week but they have been pretty much tanking lately and I don't see it as that much of a challenge for DAYS to get back up to the 3 million mark.

I agree I actually don't think this is bad. Not that far off from General Hospital. This is the week after the furnace scenes would have loved to have seen that week's ratings.
 
The furnace scenes aired the week of June 22-26 with Nicole and Eric being rescued on Wednesday of that week. Here are the ratings for that week.
