A couple things about this episode intrigued me. One, when the guy came to EJ with Stefano's medical update, they mentioned stem cells. Kind of random, makes me wonder...could this be incorporated into an upcoming storyline? I believe this involves the cord blood from a newborn, and there are two pregnancies on the show right now. And second, when Sami was in the church praying she referred to herself as "letting" EJ have sex with her. No mention of rape. I'm wondering if they are going to try to put a different spin on that story now.

I liked this episode because I felt it was building to something. I'm hopeful we're going to be getting some major story movement.

Yeah, I don't think EJ has any interest in raising Sami's baby (or Willow's for that matter). He needs something from a newborn to aid in Stefano's recovery.

She's called it rape several times in the last few weeks and when Ali was discussing this week's material in the SOD, she talked about the "rape" affecting Sami's mental state. I think that line was just to emphasise the (unfounded) guilt that Sami is experiencing. It's pretty normal for rape victims to feel that way.

My question still is, Why Sami? He could've had a bun in someone's oven without all the drama, and it would've given him what he wanted a whole lot sooner. He came to Salem in ... what, last June? The baby could be near birth right now. Why Sami?

Interestinging find, Days4Life! I'm hoping that both Sami and Willow carry to term and their babies are fine, but EJ could have his own plan. I want to think that EJ really does want the very first DiMera/Brady baby, but a part of me also wonders if EJ had this planned from the start. He needed a baby to save Stefano. My only problem with that theory is why did it have to be a Brady baby? The fact that Stefano wanted EJ to have a Brady's baby, makes it seem like the DiMeras have all intent on raising this child and sticking it to the Bradys.

Because EJ and Sami are the new Stefano and Marlena. Sami is EJ's obsession, the same way Marlena was Stefano's. Plus, EJ did the one thing Stefano was never able to accomplish with Marlena.

I believe Hogan (?) mentioned that we would finally get to the bottom of the Dimera's grudge against the Bradys. I hope this is true because I'm dying to know!

My guess is that there is some distant family tie and and that EJ specifically needs a Dimera/Brady child. There are only a handful of Brady women of child bearing age, Carrie (who can not have children), Chelsea (perhaps EJ considered her too young), Sami and Stephanie. Perhaps Stephanie lacked the proper genetic markers required to make her a suitable match.

Maybe he needs the child for a medical purposes or maybe the child is the key to something else.

Yeah, I guess it does. EJ probably thought Sami would be easier to manipulate than she was. Sami wasn't budging back then. She was after Austin, no matter how many times EJ tried to convince her it would never happen.

Chelsea and Nick were amazing!!

During the episode, I was thinking the same thing regarding Stefano. He needs something for his recovery, and that's what EJ is going to use his child for. Although, if this theory is true... why was EJ determined to make it a Brady baby, then?

I don't think EJ wanting a baby has anything to do with Stem Cell research which doesn NOT have to be from a baby. I think it has to do with the war he is finishing which was mentioned in today's show. From that I decided that Shawn Sr. did in fact give Stefano's wife a baby and now EJ is repaying the offense. Further, it excites me that that baby was John and he is actually Shawn Sr.'s son. I am not excited at all about Sami perhaps having a DiMera baby though, but it could be appropriately retaliation or revenge.

    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
