I seriously doubt EJ raping Sami was planned months in advance. A seduction...yes, but rape...no. He had too many opportunities alone with Sami last summer.

I still think that John was right about EJ. He is just as much a pawn as John was...and Steve is. I see that as EJ's best road to redemption...but I definitely don't want him to lose that edginess I've come to love.

The Baby should be EJ's for storyline purposes! Just think how far this pushes the Brady/Dimera fued. Sami having a child with EJ cements them as the next step in the Marlena/Stefano obession storyline, and it raises the stakes for all the characters. This is Days gold!

(Although I really hate the way it came about. And, SoapNet advertising "EJ Rapes Sami" really is crass.) A TWIN having TWINS seems like the best way to go. We definitely need that DiMera/Brady spawn. BTW -- ATWT blew it when baby Jennifer died (Stenbeck/Ryan/Stewart).

This is exactly how I feel. The implications go on for miles if EJ is the father. With Lucas it's just another cop out. It makes perfect sense to go this route. And we'd also have a better chance of keeping EJ around long term that way. James Scott is the most gorgeous man I've seen on daytime, and he's such a superb actor. He brings out the best in Ali too. Love him. Love the thought of a Dimera/Brady baby!!

Well, Sheffer has been doing a lot of foreshadowing with Sami carrying EJ's baby, so I don't think there's a question that Sami will bear EJ's child. I just question whether Lucas will have a role in this storyline or will it mostly focus on the EJami relationship. As a Lumi/Lucas fan, I have a lot of foreboding that this story isn't going to turn out positively for Lumi or Lucas. I hope I'm wrong. My greatest wish is that we see Lucas mature as a character in this story and that Lumi become closer as a couple. I would like to see Lucas/BD rise to lead along with Sami/AS and EJ/JS rather than just a supporting character.

I've been trying to figure out how the show could elevate Lucas' character. Since Lucas already works for Victor, perhaps Lucas could make an oath (like Sami did with Victor about that perjury tape years ago) that he would do whatever Victor wanted if Victor could help him take EJ down, since he couldn't count on the Salem PD to protect his family. In exchange, Victor could ask Lucas to help Phillip to retain custody of Claire, which of course would pit Lucas against Shelle and by extension Sami/J&M/Bo&Hope.

I hope that HS keeps the focus on ALL three players in this triangle rather than it just be EJ and Sami. But I'm on a wait and see mode to see how this story goes...

You worry too much, ademption. ;)

Everything Hogan has written (and said in interviews) suggests that this story will be about LUMI and elevating them to supercouple level. Like every other potential supercouple, they need to overcome several obstacles to reach that status. EJ and this baby are two of these. Corday did say that couples would overcome stuff together in the coming months amd I'm confident this will include LUMI. Hogan has invested too much in the couple to let their story degenerate into another one of Sami's self-destructive phases.

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
