How did that go? Are they on good terms? Sorry, lapsed viewer here. Sometimes I read the recaps, sometimes I didn't.

From what I remember, no.

Sami rejected them both. And actually ratted out Belle to Shawn.

Yeah, they are not on good terms at all.  I think Belle said yesterday that Xander tried to kill her entire family even Sami and snarked he might not have been wrong about that to Phillip lol.

I thought that was a little uncalled for 😂😂

It was, but I think a lot of people have wanted to kill Sami at different times especially her family members 😂.  She was talking to Phillip and it was clear she was semi-joking so I was okay with it.

Before EJ situation, I was a little unclear as to why Belle/Sami disliked one another.  They were fine before the most recent returns.

Sami annoys me, but her ratting out Belle to Shawn just highlights how complicated Sami's ties to both are since, like Brady, she is related to both.

Belle, of course, being her half-sister. And Shawn (Douglas) is her first cousin since Bo and Roman are (half, but Bo is considered a full Brady) brothers.

Belle is also Brady's half-sister and Shawn is also Brady's first cousin, since Bo and Isabella were brother and sister.

Wasn't that her exit story, after she returned from being kidnapped by Lucas?

She came back, there was a brief rapprochement, then Belle and EJ banged to the boogie, Sami found out, told Shawn, and went back to wherever (Los Angeles?).  But apparently did not spend much time with Johnny, who IIRC came to town after she left, and hasn't talked to her once since then…

I hope Chanel grows a backbone before Sami returns.  I'd love her as the mother-in-law from hell.

Tate’s a dick 😂😂😂

I liked him stepping up for Sophia but him immediately worrying about Holly and asking Sophia to keep the secret made me laugh. But I don’t mind him being a dick. He’s a teen. That’s how they’re supposed to be. But I also gotta say Leo Howard’s acting was a little off today. He definitely has some trouble injecting emotion into his performances when he has dramatic scenes. I wasn’t impressed lol. But I’m still interested in seeing what’s going to happen with Sophia. I still think they moved too fast with this storyline though. They really should’ve let the teens be teens for a while. And maybe it’s time to cast Sophia’s parents too. 

I enjoyed the Maggie/Holly scene, despite their awkward conversation lol. I love that they’re continuing to build a relationship between the two of them  

Brady and Ava were actually kinda nice too. I thought they had a pretty good rapport. But yeah, Brady’s pretty stupid for losing the ballet tickets and Kristen is just annoying for stealing them. She’s pathetic lol btw, paper tickets are still a thing? 😂

And just like I said yesterday, poor Doug the III. There are so many people he could’ve confided in about why he stole the necklace and what kinda trouble he’s is, but of course it had to be Leo 🤮🤮

One more time, guys: “This is why people get fired”

Yeah.

After she found out that Lucas was the one who kidnapped her, she ran off to go find EJ but found him in bed with Belle.

That was the last time we saw her.

Leo Howard acting is average at best. He should be freaking out about Sophia being pregnant. The original actor would've done a better job selling it.

Doug is dumb as dirt. Seeing and blabbering everything to Leo was just stupid.

I'm sure Julie would have given him the money to pay his debts.

Brady and Ava were corny cringe worthy bad.

So is Doug III really Steve's son, Spencer?

does Leo deserve to have a known reputation as a stolen jewels fence?

Well Leo was revealed in Beyond Salem I as interacting with stolen gems.  I think he used the drag show in Phoenix as a way to contact people?  It's been so long since I've seen Beyond Salem I that I don't remember, and he was so annoying that I didn't care to remember much about him.

Leo asked Doug if he was Spencer. Doug replied by asking, "Who is that?" Since they had already mentioned Spencer, the new writers could introduce him into a story later on.

IDK why some people persist in asking this question, seemingly every day. There is just nothing in the way they are telling this story that would make me think he is not who he says he is. What is the deal? I don't get it.

I can't remember either. All I remember is that awful drag show. I'm not saying that drag itself is awful. I've seen some really beautiful remarkable drag. But that was not one of them.

I don’t get that either. And Julie KNOWS Spencer, she is the one who mentioned his existence years ago.

That is such an excellent point! I had forgotten that. Of course. Makes all kind of sense. Thanks!

also, as recently mentioned to Doug III, he helped Clyde fence Abigail's jewels after she died
