Episode#270: Diva in Salem!

-At the Kiriakis Mansion, Kate comes downstairs in her robe and brushes her hair, and she sees Celeste in the living room with Victor, and she walks in and smirks and says how cute. Victor tells Kate he is spending some private time with a very special person, and to get out. Kate laughs and says fine, but as she turns to leave, the doorbell rings, Kate goes to answer it, and it is revealed to be DORIAN LORD!

-In Europe, there is a woman seen walking through a large castle. She walks up to a door and knocks on it, and a voice says “Come in”, and the woman enters. She begins by saying that she needs to go to Salem, and the man tells her to be patient, and soon they will go back to Salem…once her sister heals. The woman says that time is running out, and the man assures her that it will all happen when the time is right…

-Back in Salem, at Maggie’s house, Laura Horton(Jamie-Lynn Bauer) comes downstairs and sees Robin drinking some coffee. Robin looks up and smiles at Laura, and says that she is sincerely sorry for the loss of Laura’s great friend Marlena. Laura thanks her, and says these past few years have been very hard for everyone, and she just is glad her children and grandchildren are alright, and Robin mutters under her breath that maybe Mike isn’t. Laura tells her that that is actually what she wanted to talk to her about: Mike.

-At the Salem Inn, Tony wakes up in bed…with Anna next to him!!! He slowly looks at her as she wakes up, and she looks around…and asks if they slept together last night! Tony slowly says he believes they did, and Anna then apologizes, but Tony says no, he should be apologizing, because he was so drowned in Marlena dying…but Anna stops him and says she understands. Anna then says that maybe she shouldn’t be asking this, but she will. Anna asks Tony if this by some chance gives hope for them ever getting back together!

-Stefan and Kayla are at Salem Place Apartments. Kayla says that it is so sad that Marlena is dead, and Stefan simply says yes, it is. Kayla asks if he’s alright, and it seems like he’s not really cared about Marlena’s death or anything. Stefan says that all is fine, and Kayla oddly shrugs as she walks away, and it is revealed Helena is watching from the window…and she scowls and says that Stefan is screwing everything up!

-Kate asks Dorian Lord(Robin Strasser) who the hell she is! Dorian laughs and asks how she could not know who she is and she says she is Dorian Lord! Kate shrugs and asks what she wants, and Dorian says she wants to speak to Victor. Kate shakes her head and yells to Victor that someone is here for him, and Victor tells them to leave, but Kate yells that its Dorian Lord and Victor stops dead in his tracks!

-The two people at the castle in the Europe discuss going back to Salem, and the man insists that the time is approaching when they will go back to Salem.

-Laura and Robin get into an explosive argument over Mike, Laura telling Robin that she’s being way too hard on Mike, and Jeremy won’t need her breathing over his shoulder to protect him from Mike and Alexis. Robin however fires at Laura that after all that Mike has done, she needs to do this, and she’s stayed out for far too long.

-Tony and Anna discuss their relationship, and Tony tells Anna that he has forgiven her for all that happened with Jan and Nicole and understands why she did what she did now, but he’s not ready yet, its too soon after Marlena’s death, and they shouldn’t have slept together, and Anna understands, but says that she can’t wait for him forever.

-Helena vows not to let Stefan ever be discovered, and to continue to torture Steve. However, another figure watches Kayla, Stefan, AND Helena…meanwhile Stefan and Kayla spend time together and bond to help Kayla get over Marlena’s death.

-Victor is astonished to hear about Dorian Lord being on his door-step! He quickly rushes to the door with Celeste behind him, and Dorian says “Hello…Victor, its been a long time…I’m sure you’ll be glad to know I’m moving to Salem. Permanantly.”
