Days of Our Lives

Let the games begin! Replay of Abby coming in to find Andre’s body, but differently from last Friday. She gasps, startled, drops what she is carrying. She goes over, takes his pulse, is obviously upset, shocked, calls Chad.
Chad has come into the DiMera living room, study, whatever that room is, Kate sits on the sofa, he notes she has had a bad night. She figures he did as well, cannot believe Andre fired Gabi, rants about how he lied to her over and over and over. She goes on about him saying he loved her, wanted a real marriage, she did so, etc. etc. And all the while he was plotting behind her back. He never once mentioned it to her. She did not sleep all night. Chad suggests a shower, and they will regroup and counter all this. She leaves, he gets Abby’s phone call. Abby is hyperventilating, can barely speak, jumps around in her sentences as she says Andre is gone, there is blood. Chad will be right there.
When Chad enters the room, Abby is kneeling by the body, holding his hand. She babbles about no pulse, she took it, and is still in shock, talking in short bursts. Chad holds her, attempting to calm her down, says they have to get the police over, and he takes her out of the room.
Rafe wakes up, in bed with Hope, who is on her tablet. He cannot believe she brings her commissioner work to bed, but she is planning a wedding. This pleases Rafe, kiss, kiss, morning delight. Back to the planning, picking a date, whatever it is, Rafe is fine with it. Phone rings, tis Chad.
Gabi sits on the park bench reading the news flash about her being out of Gabi Chic. Eli comes along, gets the news, starts ranting about making Andre rescind the firing. She figures that is no go, Eli is adamant, gets a call from the station, has to leave, possible homicide. But will be back and they will confront Andre together.
A panicky Vivian is telling Stefan they need to get their stories straight. The police will be finding Andre, and their stories have to match. Stefan isn’t worried, nothing there will tie them to the scene, he made sure of that. Later, (he is now dressed) they have evidently got their stories down pat, he tells her to go to cook and ask for her usual, and be sure to complain about eggs too hard, as she always does. (warning, lots of flashbacks today).
Rafe & Hope arrive, see Chad & Abby outside the door, go in, check Andre. Rafe stays to check things as backup is coming, Hope goes to talk to Abby & Chad, who are now in Gabi’s “workroom/office” whatever it is. Abby tells of finding the body, talks of how good Andre was to her, but tho she remembers the conversation with Gabi, doesn’t mention it. Chad does say he was upset with his brother, who had just fired Gabi from the company. Hope is surprised as the launch was to be today.
Viv is in the study with Kate, both throwing digs at each other. Kate has to more or less defend Andre firing Gabi, tho she doesn’t want to, but Viv is doing her usual smirking and making inuendos. Kate leaves in a huff. Later, Viv talks to herself, as she see a news reports, unconfirmed, about Andre being found dead.
Stefan is in the square having coffee, reading the paper, Gabi arrives. She has a favor. (O.K. folks, NBC broke in here to give their special news report about Congress putting the government back into operation for 3 weeks, so I missed 5 or 10 minutes).
But, evidently, she wants Stefan to go over Andre’s head, and unfire her. He is refusing, she accuses him of doing so because she would not have dinner with him, he says Countess W & GabiChic are Andre’s area, he won’t interfere.
Meanwhile, Rafe is looking around, notices something on the carpet, follows a small trail of it, to under the desk. Eli has arrived, he shows him. Eli calls it a martini shaker, but Rafe says no, it an urn, yes, the kind that is used for dead people’s ashes.
Forensics has arrived, they are about to zip Andre up in the body bag, in comes the sobbing Kate, all upset about her husband, wanting to know what happened. This was her husband, boo hoo, tears, etc.
Stalwart Chad is holding onto Abby, she stares over his shoulder at the Gabi poster on the wall, recalling the angry Gabi threatening to kill Andre. She says nothing, just keeps it in.
Roman is wiping off the bar, in comes Anna, wants to talk to him. Oh, he stops her, has to first apologize all over again for bringing in Marlena, should have talked to Anna first, he knows she is so devoted to Tony, which is fine, he cares about her a lot, but since she hasn’t brought tony out, perhaps they can start fresh, have some fun. She agrees, but has to tell him something first. Whatever it is that she has done, Roman promises to support her.
So, she opens her mouth to start, and in comes Rafe & Hope. No, not there to eat, they came for Anna, gonna take her down to the station to answer some questions.
