Was there ever a suggestion that Daphne was or could have been Megan's mom? In reality, it could have been plausible (Madlyn Rhue was born in 1935 and Miranda Wilson in 1960), but I suspect Daphne was supposed to have been born in the mid-late '20s (since Thaao Penghlis was born in 1945 and I don't think they were claiming Tony or Andre were younger than they looked).

I'm pretty sure I read Tony was born in the Mid-1950's Somewhere, Thaao actually looked good in the 1980's it's afterwards that he age as fast as The sands through the hourglass

Interesting. Daphne's biography on the old Who's Who in Salem page also states that Tony wasn't Stefano's oldest -- in fact, she ran away with Tony after being aware of the treatment Stefano gave to his previous baby mamas and/or wives -- but I'm pretty sure that idea is no longer canon.

Marlena suggests to Mickey that he leave the sanitarium for a visit, and they decide she will ask Linda if she would like to have Mickey to dinner. Marlena goes to see Linda at the law office and suggests she have Mickey over for dinner. However, Marlena says it would be better if Linda and Mickey weren't alone, whereupon Linda proposes she ask Mike to join them. Marlena agrees, and they both look at one another speculatively - maybe they sized each other up too hastily. At the sanitarium, Marlena finds Don wanting to visit Mickey. Don tries to apologize for last night, but Marlena cuts him off: From now on she has no interest in him except for his help for her patient, Mickey Horton. Exiting Mickey's room at the sanitarium after discussing office business, Don finds Marlena waiting, says he has a few things to discuss about Mickey, will she meet him later for a drink. Although she's wary, Marlena agrees and Don leaves. Marlena talks to Mickey, and he admits he's afraid to leave the sanitarium. She says Linda wants very much to fix dinner for him, and Mike will pick him up so the three of them can have dinner together. Mickey asks Marlena if Linda is afraid to be alone with him.

Has an absolutely ridiculous Sarah Horton spoiler been posted anywhere? I'm looking & not finding & I'm hoping this has no credibility! 

Apologies if we've seen this one before. It's another non-storyline-related promo. I kinda like that NBC did these sort of vignette ads. Maybe I'll find one not related to a couple, like, say, of Mike in a medical situation or Victor scheming?

OH, I like that! Except for the shoulder pads & big hair, I thought soaps were good in the 80s. 

JASON47'S DEIDRE HALL COUNTDOWN TO 5000 EPISODES CONTINUES...

Each of the 25 episodes that Deidre Hall appears in (from 4,976 to 5,000) will feature an episode summary countdown of her first 25 appearances on "Days" from 1976. Here is Deidre's ninth episode, # 2680, which aired July 8, 1976.

Deidre Hall Countdown: 4,984 Episodes...16 Episodes to go.

2680...7/8/76: EPISODE # 9:

Sets: Linda's Apartment, Doug's Place Bar Area, Doug's Place Powder Room, Amanda's Hospital Room & Waiting Area Outside, Boutique, Mickey's Sanitarium Room & Waiting Area Outside, Amanda's Apartment.

 

Marlena has to convince a doubtful and nervous Mickey that he is ready emotionally to go out for an evening of dinner at Linda's apartment. He challenges her about not thinking he's up to going out to a public place, only to someone's house where he'll be supervised. Put on the spot, she says if he feels like going out after dinner, to do so. Outside, she tells the waiting Mike that if Mickey seems to want to test her statement, to take him somewhere. It's important he doesn't feel he's being supervised. Later, at Doug's Place, Don and Marlena talk of Mickey and are surprised to see Amanda Howard enter the place with Greg. Marlena is devastated when Mickey comes in with Mike and Linda. She fears he will think she's there to "supervise" his behavior. And Mickey's penetrating eyes show that indeed he does think that. Linda accuses Marlena of spying, but Marlena says she had no idea they would show up here. She goes back to her table, asks Don to kiss her, and they exit. Mike, relieved, tells Mickey that she probably didn't even know he was there, but Mickey is only half buying. Linda sees the way Marlena handled things, says score one for the doctor. Marlena says she didn't know it was a contest. Alone, Linda says to herself that with her it's always a contest where Mickey is concerned. Mike leaves also, realizing his attitude about Marlena isn't helping his Dad.

Each of the 25 episodes that Deidre Hall appears in (from 4,976 to 5,000) will feature an episode summary countdown of her first 25 appearances on "Days" from 1976. Here is Deidre's 10th episode, # 2681, which aired July 9, 1976.

When Don brings Marlena back from their date to the sanitarium, Marlena tells him she is not interested in his advances until he gets Julie out of his system. If and when is he free, she will be happy to have a real date with him. Marlena is in the waiting area outside of Mickey's room at the sanitarium when he and Linda arrive. Angry and defiant that Marlena is there to check up on him, Mickey strides into the room, slamming the door. Although Linda considers the evening a disaster, Marlena does not, and the latter suggests the two of them work together to help Mickey. When Linda goes in to say goodbye to Mickey, he makes it clear that he feels both Marlena and Don are against him, to which Linda replies that if it weren't for Don, there would be no law practice. Moreover, although she doesn't particularly like the lady psychiatrist, Marlena seems to have her head on straight. After Linda leaves, Mickey finds he really wants Marlena to like him. He just has trouble expressing his need for people. With the rain pouring down outside, Mickey and Marlena play chess, Mickey verbally testing her. However, Marlena handles the situation like a true professional, telling him that for the most part, she finds being his therapist a challenge and obviously she is not afraid of him or she would not be alone with him. Whereupon, Mickey asks her to go for a walk in the rain with him. Sitting on a bench under a tree dripping with water, Mickey tells Marlena he isn't sure where his home is because he doesn't love anyone, to which Marlena replies he will in time. Meanwhile, Don proceeds to ask Julie to marry him, slipping a beautiful engagement ring on her finger. Mesmerized by Don's persuasive kisses, Julie agrees to marry him.

Wednesday marks the 30th anniversary of it being revealed that Sami caught John & Marlena fooling around on that conference table. The 30th anniversary, alas, isn't the conference table anniversary, but the pearls one.
