Monday December 3:
Ted tries to get Ben to confess to starting the fire at the cabin. [Ted was always a crook, but now he's sinking to a new low -- working against a former client. He should be disbarred ASAP.]
Tuesday December 4:
Eli suggests to Rafe that Hope might be cheating on him. [It seems highly unlikely that Hope would have time to cheat. She's too busy trying to frame Ben. That said, if this is a way to free Rafe from being Hope's lap dog, it would be a welcome development.]
Wednesday December 5:
Ciara and Ben go on their first date! [Hopefully, it's not a shopping trip to Salem's Necktie City.]
Thursday December 6:
Chloe is thrilled when Lucas returns from Europe but he drops a bomb that changes their relationship. [That he's staying in Europe to be near Allie wouldn't be a bomb. A real "bomb" would be that he visited Vienna and has begun a torrid love affair with Carly "Polka-Dot Bra" Manning.]
Sarah appeals to Maggie to let Eric raise Holly. [This is so predictable. If the writers wanted to shake things up, Nicole's sister, Taylor "Tayhag" Walker, would appear in Salem wanting custody of poor Holly. Imagine clueless Judge Rose Duncan presiding at a custody trial pitting Eric against Tayhag: Justin: "Your honor, this woman is married to the infamous pimp, Quinn Hudson"; Ted: "Judge, Eric Brady is not only the ex-con drunk driver who killed St. Daniel, he's a professional sourpuss who works in a saloon."]
Friday December 7:
Stefan gets Abigail released from Bayview, believing she’s “Gabby.” [The Big Zero isn't very smart, is he.]
