DAYS: January 2026 Discussion Thread

Found it on the archive.org version of soapcentral recaps.
Last week of September 2013 and the first week of October 2013.
(Somewhere over this batch of episodes, I forget where, it's clear when Abigail and Jennifer are talking, that Jennifer had already told Abigail about Jack/Kayla rape years ago, but they had decided not to tell JJ back then).

This was when Jack was supposedly dead. JJ was annoyed that Jennifer was dating Daniel, and he felt Jennifer had gotten over Jack too quickly. He was fighting with Jennifer and wouldn't stay with her. He was planning or sleeping at the park or crashing with Rory and hanging out with Bev, etc.

He encountered Kayla and asked if he could stay at her home. Kayla tried to convince JJ to work things out with Jennifer. JJ ranted to Kayla about Daniel. Kayla blurted out "well your father was no saint". JJ said what do you mean by that? Kayla changed the subject by telling JJ to reconcile with Jennifer, and then Kayla walked away.
Abigail walked up and shows JJ that Jack's book has been published and is now on sale, and he's thrilled. He mentions his conversation with Kayla, and asks Abigail what Jack might have done, but Abigail doesn't respond to that.

JJ then tried to get info out of Adrienne by visiting her at the K-mansion and Adrienne thinks he's looking for a place to crash. He started mentioning something about Kayla and Jack -- and Adrienne dropped her coffee cup and it shattered. He knew that Adrienne knew something and he got her to start talking; and she said Jack had deeply regretted it (but Adrienne didn't say what "it" was. ) JJ said "I already know" but Adrienne realized he was bluffing, so Adrienne didn't tell him.

The recap says that JJ broke into the Horton house (he didn't have a key) and he searched. He found the transcript of Lawrence Alamain's trial for raping Jennifer. Within that transcript of Lawrence's trial, it says Jack testified that he (Jack) had raped Kayla. JJ freaks out.

JJ goes to see Kayla at the hospital, and tells her he read Lawrence's trial transcript and what Jack had said then. JJ asks if Jack lied on the stand to help Jennifer in some convoluted way, but that he didn't really rape Kayla. Kayla says it's true.

Meanwhile Jennifer returns to the Horton house and finds the Lawrence trial transcript laying out, and she realizes that JJ read it and found out. Abigail and Kayla arrive and they all discuss this. Just then JJ gets arrested for smashing the window of the store where Jack's book is on display.

Thanks. This sounds like my kind of book. A lot is said about Kim and Reva, but both tell it like it is.

GH: January 2026 Discussion Thread

I'd rather Carly/Sonny again than Valentin/Carly. I said what I said...lol.
You know I want Kevin/Lucy back together too. It's not like GF/JL have any real chemistry. The relationship doesn't real move any of Laura's story. You know Donnell Turner is just waiting for his chance lol

BTG: January 2026 Discussion Thread

I still don't like Ted, but it was a nice little laugh having him scoff at "someone who spells Kyle K-i-a-l." I agree, I think whoever at BTG thought Kyle needed an extra unique spelling is focused on the wrong things.

GH: January 2026 Discussion Thread

I think if it was up to FV he'd run Valentin and Carly for another 3-5 years to keep JPS around tbh. I think that's his priority. I hope it doesn't come to that. But I'd also rather gnaw my arm off than watch more of her and Maurice together. Both options suck and I will not choose one.
Kevin and Laura has got to end and I say that as someone who yes, wants Kevin and Lucy back together but mostly wants Laura free for something new. The relationship has never made much sense to me and now it's nonexistent. Not that Frank cares. JL's role on BTG will end eventually IMO (he plays a crime kingpin with his hand in several murders) but in the meantime, move on.

DAYS: January 2026 Discussion Thread

I don't know who is currently aware that Jack raped Kayla. But the year it happened, Kayla filed charges. I don't know if that went to court or not. I remember years later, teen (or young adult) JJ had recently come to Salem after going to school in Europe or something. I think Jack was "dead" or "missing" at that time? and Jack's book had been published after he died or went away. Jack's book was on display in a store window in Horton Town Square. I forget how, but JJ learned about the rape, and then there was a whole scene after learning then, when JJ was at the Square, and approached the store that was selling the book -- and he smashed the store window in his rage. Forgive me for typing this from memory -- I don't have time to look it up right now, so I might have some of the details wrong.

Edit: JJ found out and reacted the last week of September 2013 and the first week of October 2013.

I think there are places to take Sonny currently on canvas that the show or Mo just aren't willing to do. It's annoying to me that BTS stuff is ruining drama that can be done. I don't agree with all the choices MB has made with Sonny over the years, but at least give him something to do besides having bestie chats with Laura and flirt with the DA like he is 25.
I am okay with the Carly/Sonny relationship being done for real although I do consider that the most likely default. How long can Carly play Brennan? How often will JPS show up for a romance with her? Neither of these options are long term.
Circling back to Laura, why are Kevin/Laura still a thing? JL pops up for 2 episodes and takes Ace with him? This is the most non-couple to ever exist. They never are even in the same place lol. I am not mad at JL for doing other things, but give them some conflict or something to explain the absences.

GH: January 2026 Discussion Thread

Smh. Them agendas strike again. Almost sad to read options for Sonny, but no one will, can, and won't do them.

That wellspring is dry.
