Didn't see one of these, so here it is... Discuss!

The last line by EJ-" I expect you to die" to John was great. I read the episode for tommorrow, it sounds amazing. EJ makes being bad so damn sexy

I really like to see Nick and chelsea become a couple, they would be so cute.

Looks like Nick got a haircut.

LMAO at Chelsea's comment about Mimi. "The man's trapped in a closet for 150 years and the first woman he runs into is Mimi?"

It was a really good show today. It was a nice way of transitioning from what we got with Christmas yesterday and all the drama we are going to get the rest of the week.

Patrick has lost it. His scenes with Hope were great. I got worried when Caroline walked in because I thought he may do something to her. Loved Hope using the spray on Patrick and trying to fight him. That was the spunky Hope we all know.

I loved Chelsea's line about Mimi. Nick looks better with the haircut and I am liking the Nick/Chelsea stuff. I loved how Chelsea handled Patrick. It seems she is done wanting her mom and dad together. I like that she called Bo and helped out.

John and Marlena were good and seeing her caring for Will for once was refreshing. It always seems to be Caroline and Shawn Sr or Kate so it was good to see him with Marlena. Liked that last scene where Will was asking Marlena what was going on. We were all wondering when the LUMI ski trip/Marlena caring for Will stuff was going to happen and here it is.

John/EJ was good. Nice buildup with Bo having to go handle Patrick (loved the Bo/Caroline scene too) and Roman being forced to ask John for help. The line EJ had to John at the end "I expect you to die" was a good ending.

LUMI were HOT. I wish we got to see more but I was pleased. Ali and Bryan rock together and I enjoyed their scenes and some of the comedy we got there.

Tomarrow and Friday should be amazing. Another great week so far for Days.

The real Hope Williams Brady was back today. What a relief to see the strong, common sense REAL Hope again. I've so missed her. She was using all her skills with Patrick based on what she knows as truth.

Sami and Lucas deserve their place in the stars as a bona fide "supercouple" and thankfully, it seems as though Hogan sees that and is making it happen. They were so human, believable and lovable today.

Chelsea, Abby and Nick at the church were interesting. I was enjoying Abby taunting Nick to reveal himself to Chelsea but disappointed that he, the brain with the super confident fellow, lost his confidence in being truthful with Chelsea. I was really pleased with how Chelsea handled the "weird" call from Patrick so that Bo was alerted to Hope's plight.

Spooky how EJ just appeared in the boathouse and snuck up on John. The music was perfect.

I think today flowed so well and didn't want it to end. Hogan really knows how to build the suspense.

I loved seeing Will with his Grandma Marlena instead of him just being around Kate,caroline,and Shawn Sr..It looks like Thursday's show is going to be really good with it heading towards Hope giving birth.It is really going to get complicated with Sami having to sleep with EJ to save Lucas' life.I see a who's the daddy storyline for Sami down the pike because Lucas and Sami just made love in the cabin.This reminds me of a storyline from AW in which Rachel Cory slept with Mitch Blake in order to save Mac's life back in the 80s resulting in the death of Janice Frame.I hope the ratings jump for DAYS on this action packed week.

I love Nick and I can't wait for Chelsea to find out she's in love with him. I think they are adorable together. I'm loving Lucas and Sami too. Can't wait for Patrick to be gone; good riddance to bad rubbish. And is it just be, but is Marlena just BORING lately???

Solid episode. Chelsea is becoming more likable. As with Sami, I am glad she finally said she is over the whole “I want my mommy and daddy together even though I am over 18” crap.

Also....after this incident, they need to refrain from having Hope kidnapped again….at least for another three years (lol, I would have said never again, but this IS Days)

Hogan really has hit his stride with Days..the show was on fire today..It had a great mix of romance, action, and suspense....Lumi was cute and hot at the same time..Ali and Bryan rocked in their scenes, and you can tell they are enjoying the material...

Chelsea, Abby, Nick---i love all them...finally some interesting teen characters, and strong actors..Also i'm really liking Chelsea and Nick, they have so much potential...

Hope/Patrick---wow, this shocked me..I wasn't expecting hope to get kidnapped today..and i didn't know Caroline would show up..Also the pepper spray suprised me...tommorows show looks great..

It was a nice touch having Will show up with Marlena, just more realistic..and the end with John and EJ was very suspenseful...If i was unspoiled, i'd be freaking out..

Finally the previews were so intense..those defintitely made me feel like i had to tune in tommorow..

And is it just be, but is Marlena just BORING lately???

Lately? um No.....but since 1996? YES!

For some reason, the episode didn't gel with me. Something was off. Something prevented it from being just right. One of the "off" elements is DAYS' music, which isn't cutting it right now with this dramatic stuff. It isn't intensifying the scenes: it's fighting with what is on the screen. A bunch of dramatic numbers would do wonders, because Hogan's stuff on ATWT worked very well with the show's deep compositions.

And I think some of the actors are so used to phoning in their performances during JER's tenure that they're falling into that trap right now. Bo's scenes with Caroline seems rushed and choppy. John walking into the warehouse was beyond stupid. And all the scenes seemed too short, and I'm not feeling the build.

I'm sure the show will be on its A-game tomorrow, but I didn't think today was everything it could be. It was much better than normal, but tripped all over its potential.

Andre, ICA with you about the music. DAYS has this sci-fi/techno crap that's horrible in dramatic scenes. Take us back the piano.

The show has been rocking lately. I hope Hogan FINALLY gets a reward in terms of the ratings.
