Sami leaving on her own.. without a man... very refreshing. Sami, as a character, has always been strongest on her own... Being saddled with EJ and Rafe actually limited her character in a way.

I actually agree and love the idea of Sami heading off on her own. For 22 years, she's basically been defined by trying to attach herself to a man. This represents a fresh start.

Also, I was into the idea of her and EJ secretly reuniting… except what are they gonna do? Tell the kids they can never ever tell anyone their dad is alive? It'd be ridiculous.

This sounds really stupid.

I would have sent her off by having her go on the run for shooting EJ, which would have required Sami never forgiving EJ for his affair with Abby in the first place.

She better be back before DAYS ends. And frankly I didn't want her to ride off into the sunset with EJ. I'd love to have her and Austin Peck's Austin end up together.

Hasn't she already filmed a return visit? I could've sworn I saw something that said so. I imagine she will take a year or so off to continue directing (like GH) and her other stuff. I just never got the sense this was permanent based on her readiness to come back for holidays, big events, etc. Even though it's kind of a bizarre exit, it actually works - Sami is not in danger - so the rest of the cast doesn't have to spend months "wondering where Sami is," it allows for Sami to come back and forth "as needed" easily, and it provides a "new chapter" for Sami following a tragedy.

A year or so later, she can return and reunite with Lucas.

I'd say this takedown of Ej and reunion and his murder was her exit story.

This is her send off at the end. And I like it, a lot.

Sorry austin peck belongs with Carrie not that 60 year old they tried to pass off as austin last time...

Patrick Muldoon who was the ORIGINAL Austin Reed?

I'll take Muldoon over Peck any day. 60? He is three years older than Peck.

Busted looking, dull, and, yes, original.

He sure didn't look it. Muldoon looked about 56. And with the voice of a washed up drag queen.

Peck, while hardly a great talent, made that role his own. You'd never believe that Sami would have bothered with Muldoon's Austin with the way he's turned out.

Plus, how could anyone watch the prick that broke up Zack and Kelly!

I saw this thread and avoided it bc I didn't want to be spoiled, but seeing the crap play off onscreen, I had to check to see if this sh-t was a reality, and yes they are going with it. I liked it better when it looked like she was going to be in some legal trouble and had to go on the run till it cleared out. This Hollywood story seems SOOO random and seems very contradictory to everything that's happened with her in the last month
