Members JAS0N47 Posted November 5, 2013 Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 HEY THERE, DON'T YOU LOOK FAMILIAR??...IAN PATRICK WILLIAMS BACK ON "DAYS" IN RECORD-BREAKING FIFTH ROLE Ian Patrick Williams, who has had 4 recurring roles on "Days" in the past, is returning to the show later this month for his record-breaking 5th recurring role (for stats purposes, a role lasting at least 5 episodes). Listed as simply "Gentleman" on some of the Christmas paperwork, Williams revealed his character's name on IMDB: Percy Ruggles. Look for Williams to make his debut as Percy on November 26. "Days" fans may remember him for two of his most memorable roles on the show...he played Steve Kendall, the pilot that Vivian drugged and caused to crash the plane that Kate Roberts was on in 1995 (causing Kate to go missing for a year) and later would play Mimi Lockhart's father, David Lockhart in 2000 and 2002. His other recurring roles were as Dr. Bert Klein (Vivian's sanitarium doctor) in 1998; and Dr. Adams (Lucas' doctor in San Diego) in 2002. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 5, 2013 Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 That's fascinating. Did they just say Mimi's father was dead when they brought Bonnie in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 David only factored in at the end of the Lockhart's storyline. They brought in William Bumiller for one episode (3/1/07) to show David's death in newly-created flashbacks (Mimi, who had no memory of the events until this day, had killed her drunken father with a baseball bat to keep him from strangling Bonnie). This was also Mimi and Bonnie's last episode and they both left town, never to be seen again. I think it was Patrick (who had left the show in January 2007) who ended up taking the fall for Mimi, to save her from going to prison. Skimming through the episode synopses just now, Mimi and Max had stumbled upon a skeleton which ended up being her dad (and a ring on the skeleton's finger had Lockhart blood on it).

Members Bright Eyes Posted November 5, 2013 Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 Patrick went to jail for the Gloved Hand crimes. Bonnie went to jail by taking the fall for murdering David for Mimi, who left town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 Thanks for the correction, Bright Eyes. Remembering all the storyline details was never my strong suit!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ben Posted November 5, 2013 Members Share Posted November 5, 2013 I had stopped watching regularly by this point, but how did this fit with Mimi's homeless story in 2000? At that point they said David had got into debt, which resulted in them becoming homeless, and I'm sure he popped up during the Habitat for Humanity thing. Were viewers supposed to believe that after this Mimi killed her father off screen at some random point, and even though she blocked it out, no-one noticed any odd behaviour?! Did people actually buy all this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gray Bunny Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 Amen! I honestly do not remember that story AT. ALL. I remember they brought on Mimi's younger brother Connor at the very tail end right before Bonnie was finally written off (and then Judi Evans returned a month later with long red hair and an ugly creme pantsuit as Adrienne), but I don't remember Mimi realizing she killed her father. I don't even remember the details of Patrick being the gloved killer. Sigh... I'm getting old. Oh well. I was just glad to see all the Lockharts exit.

Members Bright Eyes Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 E.J. forced Patrick, his accomplice, to take the fall. I don't know if it was for all the gloved crimes or just police officer Eve's murder, but the situation remains the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 wasn't EJ, the Black Glove?? DId they drop that storyline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 6, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 I just did the cast & set list for August 16, 2006...the last scene is EJ's Apartment (EJ, Sami, Gloved Hand) and the summary for the scene is this: "Sami begins crying, she says she cant let Lexie ruin this wedding. EJ says hell make sure that doesnt happen. She thanks him and says she doesnt know what shed do if it wasnt for him. He smirks. Sami gets the funny feeling that someone is watching her right now. She looks outside but doesnt see anything. Sami says she needs to relax and let EJ help her now. She says after tomorrow she will be Mrs. Austin Reed forever. The gloved hand lurks outside!" So if they did end up making EJ the gloved hand, this scene helps disprove that... (Patrick was with Bo & Hope at the Police Station earlier in this act).

Members cassadine1991 Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 I wonder who really was the Black Gloves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sindacco Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 EJ was the mastermind behind the "Black Glove crimes". Sometimes he was the "black glove", other times it was Patrick, and in one scene EJ told Patrick he had other people working for him too. Patrick went to jail for kidnapping Hope.

Members cassadine1991 Posted November 6, 2013 Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 Interesting, so it was more than one Black Glove.. Wonder which one did the switching involving Mimi and Belle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 6, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 6, 2013 Oh, so that's how the writers dealt with it then...they made it multiple gloved hands!! Wonder if they all had to wear the same special glove, or any old glove would do!! In reality, there were probably multiple U/5s who played the gloved hand...now that's an easy pay day!! No lines to learn, no makeup or hair to worry about, just play a glove and make a nice pay day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
