All The Days of Our Lives

Marleana is sitting a table in Chez Rouge. She looks at her watch. Stefano comes, and sits across from her.

Stefano: It’s good to see you, Marleana.

Marleana: What can you possibly have to tell me, that I will be interested in?

Stefano: It’s about John.

Marleana: Stefano, I don’t have time for this.

Stefano: Marleana, I am not pulling your leg! I have something that proves that he did not agree to fake his death!

Scotty and Julie are in Scotty’s apartment.

Scotty: What horrible things do you have to say about Nicole this time, grandma?

Julie: Must I repeat myself?

Scotty: What is it?

Julie: I just have a question.

Scotty: Shoot.

Julie: How old is Alex?

Scotty: 8.

Julie: How old is Nicole’s son, Benjamin?

Scotty: Where are you going with this?

Julie: I am wondering if you are trying to replace Alex with Benjamin! Carly has his in Paris, you hardly see him. They are around the same age-

Scotty: Grandma, stop!

Julie: This has gone on for too long! It’s time to dump the gold digger!

Hope and Jennifer are sitting at a table in the Brady Pub.

Jennifer: What did you mean when you said you couldn’t get over something you did?

Hope: Nothing.

Jennifer: Hope did you cheat on Bo, too?

Hope looks at her.

Jennifer: Hope, if you did I won’t judge you.

Hope: I got drunk at the Cheatin’ Heart one night, and brought someone home.

Jennifer: It only happened once?

Hope: Yes, and I’ve regretted it ever since.

Philip walks into the Java Café, and sees Belle and Claire sitting at a table. He goes to them.

Philip: Hello.

Belle looks at Philip, with a disappointed look on her face.

Belle: Claire, why don’t you go say hi to Maria? Her and her mom are sitting at that table.

Claire: Ok.

Claire gets up, and goes to the other table.

Philip: What’s the problem?

Belle: Philip, I’m not in the mood right now.

Philip: The mood for what? I just came to say hi.

Belle: I almost ruined my relationship with Shawn for you! He turned to drugs because of us! I’m not going to do that again.

Philip: First of all, it took both of us to have an affair, and second of all, Shawn turned to drugs all on his own! He didn’t have to turn to drugs.

Belle: Philip, please don’t start this.

Will walks into the café. He goes to Belle’s table.

Will: Hey Aunt Belle. Is everything ok here?

Marleana and Stefano are sitting at a table in Chez Rouge.

Marleana: Stefano, what are you talking about? There are documents showing John’s signature!

Stefano: Those documents were falsified, Marleana! Wake up and smell the coffee! Why would John agree to leave his family again, after waking up from a coma?

Marleana: To bring you down!

Stefano: Give me a break! You think it was an accident that John lost his memory?

Marleana: Then why did they do it? Why did they fake John’s death?

Stefano: Because the ISA has it in their heads that John has secretes about the DiMera’s locked inside his brain.

Marleana: Let’s say that you are telling the truth. How did you find this out?

Stefano: I have my sources.

Marleana: Ok, so you’re telling me that the ISA, who has been completely loyal to John just turned against him.

Stefano: It wasn’t the ISA; it was one of their agents.

Scotty and Julie are in Scotty’s apartment.

Scotty: Grandma, I really don’t have time for this fight anymore.

Julie: I’m just warning you, Scotty.

Scotty: Is there a reason you came over here, or was it to trash Nicole?

Julie: I was in the neighborhood, and I decided to come up, and ask when Alex will be in town next.

Scotty: Actually, I’m going to go visit him next week in Paris.

Julie: Oh! That’s nice! Too bad you’re going to have to see that nut job, Carly!

Scotty: Here we go again.

Ciara walks into the Brady Pub, and walks right past Hope and Jennifer’s table.

Hope: I am so upset over this.

Jennifer: Hope, is this why she has been mad at you these past few months? Is this why she moved in with your dad and Julie? She walked in on you?

Hope: Yes. I didn’t know she was there when she saw it, but it came out when we had a fight.

Jennifer: Hope, I’m so sorry.

Hope: Don’t feel sorry for me; feel sorry for her.

Will, Belle, and Philip are at the table in the Java Café.

Philip: What? You don’t say hi to your uncle anymore?

Will: When you want to start acting like one, let me know.

Belle: Philip, please, just leave us alone.

Philip: Fine. See you guys later.

He leaves.

Will: What was that about?

Belle: I don’t know. He just came to see Claire; I overreacted.

Will: So, where’s Shawn?

Belle: At work. He’s almost done is training, and he will be one of Salem’s finest in no time.

Will: That’s good. What about you?

Belle: What about me?

Will: How is the nursing thing going?

Belle: It’s going good. I have a test tomorrow that I should really study for.

Will: Oh, do you want me to leave?

Belle: No, of course not! I don’t even have my books here.

Belle sees Philip reading a magazine.

She has a flashback.

Belle and Philip are upstairs in the Brady Pub. They start to make love.

Will: You ok, Belle?

Belle: Ya, I’m fine.

Stefano and Marleana are sitting at a table in Chez Rouge.

Stefano: Marleana, if you do not want to believe me, then don’t.

Marleana: Stefano, even if this is true, why would you tell me?

She sees someone at the bar.

Marleana: Oh my God.

Stefano: What?

Marleana: John? He’s back?

Stefano turns around, as Marleana gets up.

Next on All the Days of Our Lives:

John and Marleana are at the bar in Chez Rouge.

John: Marleana, I think were better off not together.

Valerie and Eric are sitting at a table in the Brady Pub.

Valerie: What do you mean you don’t know if you can do this?

Eric: I don’t think it’s the best idea for us to be together.

Bo and Hope are on the docks

Bo: Are you saying you’re going to give us another chance?

They kiss.
