I think a different story would have played out if AZ wasn't fired/left/whatever etc. Facts are they need to break up EJ/Nicole pretty quickly. The only thing I could think of to explain this is that EJ let his anger go more easily since the child was his and now that it's Eric/Nicole's child it brought that anger back to the surface and he realized he doesn't forgive the indiscretion* now. *I don't even know what to call the sex/affair/drugging situation.

He does. That's why I didn't rewind because I wanted to keep the canon in my head that EJ didn't want Nicole to have Jude because it wasn't his royal blood. I agree EJ works better as a villain. I just think it's such a horrible thing to do to Nicole. EJ did seem to really care about her and saw how devastated she was. I thought EJ changed just enough to be above that especially since he's been in similar shoes with Sydney.

Carly should just take it off the menu. I think it was specifically Kelly's BLT's Heather loved although I think almost anyone can make a BLT.

😂That makes much more sense. I thought he said "mere commoner" since it was a one sided convo I thought it could have happened. I wouldn't be shocked if the Dimera's considered themselves royalty in their own heads lol.

Man, I am going to pretend he did lol. Sometimes his accent can get slightly muddled especially if I have Days on a lower volume. What did he actually say?

Lol. I think Topaz is kind of nice. I just don't know why Eric gave her ANOTHER necklace. Sloan just got the Jude nameplate one and wears it in most her scenes. Maybe a bracelet, ring or some earrings next time.

The Chanel drama seems warranted and I think RB did a really good job today. CB acted the same way Johnny does everyday 😂, so he wasn't stretching himself much. The Holly/Nicole fight when from 0 to insanity so quick though lol. I don't know why Holly thought Nicole would let her go to prom especially without asking or making any concessions or compromises. Actually, I question Aaron's parents for letting him go to prom with the girl that just OD'd on drugs and lied, forcing her last bf to go to juvie.😂 Did EJ ask Rolf if Jude was just a "commoner" when he got the test results? I didn't rewind, but if so, hilarious.

I like the idea of a lot of things culminating at Brook Lynn and Chase's wedding. I just wish I cared about the couple. It's hard to be excited about a wedding I could care less about.

I thought about that possibility as well. It seems plausible. It doesn't seem like fired guy would care about SR or DH's needs more than the new regime, but it's possible.

The strangest one to me was Dante. He loved his job! I know he just got severely injured, but that was surprising to me. I know Sam is much more worried about her cop boyfriend's safety than she ever was about procreating with a mob hitman, but character growth for Sam I guess? You would think PM/EK would want to quickly move along the stories that aren't theirs and just start fresh. I really get the Jason return story was probably top priority I just hope they are really looking at what stories and what characters actually work.

I can't tell you the exact timing of their last scenes. The rift seem to become clear after the DH's returned in 2011. I think DH/SR had 5 scenes together total in the 2011-2023 period and maybe one where they actually spoke more than a few words to one another. It was strange at many points although it didn't really affect the show. It was just weird Marlena/Maggie didn't seem to be friends anymore. Once RC/Scabs/Whoever decided to make John a major player in this Konstantin saga I think it became too hard to keep Marlena out of the story. Plus, the canon on the show was always that Marlena/Maggie were still good friends just mostly off screen or something. I basically think that's the case. And it's not like SR/DH have ever come out and said they had issues. It was just obvious.

I wonder how the ELR casting came about. I understand why the show hired her even if the show has 700 cast members already, but this was the pitch? Blaze/Kristina already have about a million different obstacles to begin with. Let's just add a stage mother and maybe a brother to all this. And Kristina/Blaze aren't even worth that much effort! I absolutely agree FV and GH have completely outdated ideas. The show is lacking in cliff hangers while practically every single character is changing careers, getting new hips and/or new personalities, or talking about Pikeman/Jason/Mob/FBI. I have been on the fence about PM/EK so far and don't want to judge too quickly, but I almost feel like the show needs to deep breathe a bit, cut out dead weight, and end some stories first before jumping head long into a bunch of new ideas.

Is it his last episode? It didn't feel like it. I'll be honest after I heard Burton was back to GH I checked out on the entire story even though I actually like Harris and I think Harris/Ava are cute. No point in investing.

It's ridiculous seriously. And Natalia doesn't actually talk or reference religion very often. She's got no problem hanging out with Sonny. It makes no sense and I think GH is very dated in a lot of ways and think their audience would be shocked by a queer singer in the year 2024. And that's why we get all the baby stories.

I agree too, but I don't think anyone has the gall to tell Deidre or Suzanne to act like adults and as long as everyone shows up and says their lines Days is cool with it. Their scenes were technically fine. The point and the story came across. It just was a bit unbelievable Marlena/Maggie were friends for 45 years by the way they were acting. John did say it was important Marlena was there because Maggie trusts her so much today, so I guess there is that. I kept thinking the other new cop (not Goldman) was also suspicious so I thought they might be working together. He hasn't appeared again so probably not.

They were. Like laughing, hugging, and all.

Believe it or not they were still pretty close after that.

Days continues to have a lot of extraneous details in their plots that don't matter. So something can be said and it will literally have nothing to do with anything and the show just moves on or completely drops it lol. If @AbcNbc247 can't recall, no one can.

It is. Lucky for Suzanne she did get a chance to appear in Never Say Never: The Deidre Hall Story😂

I don't believe we got clarity on that. I think it was Stefan. Clyde was just don't be an idiot and immediately get caught. Which, he obviously did lol.

Yes! Her body language is so off. DH sitting all the way off to the side near John and being so clinical and unemotional about it was weird. John and Steve were the ones physically holding Maggie's hand and comforting her. If you didn't watch Maggie/Marlena throughout their entire history until the 2010's it may not have seemed strange, but they were always very warm and physically affectionate previously. Idk, it just feels awkward. It's not exactly necessary for Marlena/Maggie to share story so maybe it's fine lol.🤞

Okay. I was under the impression the plane got lost (because of changed flight plan), crashed into the ocean or something and it was suspicious. I could have absolutely made that leap in my head myself. It still doesn't make sense why Victor went to Greece. Even if the implication was that he was telling his baby momma about the new heir will change neither Angelica (dead) or Xander's mom live in Greece (from what was said on today's show) so people on the show should be more concerned about that lol.

She's 37!!!! She looks very good. I thought she was like 28 lol. I am pretty sure Kristina is in her very early 30's. She was a teen in 2010 and I don't think she was aged up or anything.

If Maggie was aware I would totally buy that she was waiting it out to catch Konstantin doing something criminal and have him arrested. But, then again, she could have just waited for him to get deported and not do anything about it all lol. I just don't buy that Maggie is that dumb to fall for Konstantin's lies when everyone in town sees right through him. This question is for anyone that might know. Wasn't there very suspicious circumstances around Victor's plane crash? Does that tie back to Konstantin or is it just a dangling plot hole?

Thanks! Couldn't recall. Tbh, I can't really even tell how old Blaze is supposed to be so I guess it doesn't matter.
