What a lousy opening scene

Please register in order to view this content

After today, I think I finally understand why some posters thought Javi was obnoxious and selfish. Like, who orders people around in their own house? If he’s gonna be nothing more than a Leo prop, then just write him out. And seriously, who TF falls in love in a month? Gabi was clearly supposed to be the bad guy today but it didn’t work and it never will. 

But I’m glad we got some follow-up with EJ and Johnny. EJ’s fight with Kate was the one of the best parts of today, even though the background music in their scenes was ridiculous. And honestly, whoever picked it should be fired. And there seemed to be some continuity errors too. Does the show not remember that the night EJ raped Sami was also the night that he shot John and was on the run? But the fight itself was good and it was even better seeing Kate continuing to get her strength back. EJ hinting that he could target Philip as a way of getting back at Kate could be interesting too. 

I also enjoyed the Rafe/Johnny scenes and I’m glad that the show remembered their relationship. Johnny raised some pretty questions too, that I hope are answered once

I also appreciate the way that the two of discussed Sami. For the first time in years, she feels like an actual character instead of just a plot device/troublemaker.

The ending was pretty good too. It’s definitely time for Old Rachel to get lost.

I fast-forwarded the Leo and Javi scenes. The rest of the episode was good, but the cliffhanger! The mind-erasing drug again? Time to ship the DiMeras away from the show. They have run their course.

The Kate/EJ scenes were great!  Weren't EJ/Kate once an item?  Back in the early James Scott years?  Kate's really been around so it's hard to recall.   I always thought Austin was her favorite child, not Phillip lol.  I put Phillip above Rex and Cassie, but below Austin, Lucas and Billie.

Good scenes with Rafe and Johnny as well.  Galen Gering works really well with younger actors in general.  Much better than with love interests.  

Is that the first time we've seen an exterior shot of Rafe's house?  It's pretty nice.  Javi was completely obnoxious today.  Leo didn't even bother me for once.  How rude is it to just have Leo move in?  Javi doesn't even pay rent and Gabi is not just his roomate but his boss.  She has extremely valid reasons to not want Leo around.  Javi just completely ignored her.  I am sure Jada didn't think she was going to be living with four other adults when she agreed to move in with Rafe.  She's better off at Stephanie's.

IIRC EJ and Kate were lovers, but not committed to each other.

I've always felt Lucas was the favorite, because she spent the most time raising him.  Then, Billie, Philip, Austin, Cassie, and Rex, in that order.

See, I did think about that.  Lucas has a case here.  I was under the impression that Kate overcompensated with Austin and Billie because she didn't raise them.  Plus, I also factored in how pro-Austin/Carrie and how anti-Sami/Lucas she was.  Austin just seems like the least screwed up one and caused minimal trouble.  Kate doesn't feel like a 'girl mom' so I'd rank it-

1. Austin 2. Lucas 3. Billie 4. Phillip 5. Rex 6. Cassie  

Phillip doesn't top any list for me in the end.  He's obviously Victor's least favorite child too.

I do believe Peter will return full time one day.  It seems like the recent losses may have changed his views and perspective on Days.  And Bo is truly needed on this show now more than ever.  I think we all know I am not much of a Bo/Hope fan, but I am a Bo fan.

    • When Derek finally appears with only a towel, and his chest and pecs/nipples are finally shown, I say yes.

    • Now, actually not. That thought had not even made it into my head, so, no, so far anyway, I've not seen that. Haven't seen today yet. What you're describing is warped & I think she's feeling genuine empathy & sister bond. 
    • Xander was the bigger person apologizing to Cat when he didn't do anything wrong.  he wasn't yelling at Felicity whatsoever, he was asking if she possibly had given them the wrong order by mistake.  He was trying to get to the bottom of what was going on, but Chad/Cat were trying to white knight Felicity even though Felicity was being treated just like anyone else in that situation.   She was the one to bring the order out to them, and usually the person that brings the order out is the one that puts the order together.    I'm still getting a read on the Cat character.   I think she seems to work well when interacting with everyone other than Chad.   Perhaps the new writers can move Cat out of Chad's orbit into another orbit. Paulina has been written quite well the few times she's been on since the writer change.  I think Jackee is enjoying the new writing.. you can tell when she's on screen.  
    • LOL - well, Peter was included in the grandkids' section, each named specifically with their $100K trusts.  It must have been the abs...

        In Henry's will, he said it had to do with Hart having a chance at being a better person than his father, since his father isn't providing for him (I'm paraphrasing here, but it was about Roger).  Still a little surprised...
    • I'm glad the truth is all out regarding Roman and Kate's secrets from each other, and also happy Roman didn't make much of the letter forgery, because why would he even care? They are a good solid couple. However, not to be mean, when Roman had his little flashback at the DiMera mansion he seemed more like an old man that was lost. How wonderfully aggravating that we still don't know what the hell happened with Johnny the night EJ was shot. I can't wait to find out. I've my feelings clear on Paulina, but she was definitely written much more adult and Jackée even seemed a bit toned down, for the better. Nothing boring about either scenes for me. I like the little drama between Xander and Cat, for the newness of the interaction alone. AnnaLynne McCord is much better at material where she's not acting dementedly lovesick. Seeing that side to Cat was integral to remembering she's not a moron, and I am definitely intrigued by the heck could be calling her. Kevin Lambert returning is a cute little surprise. I never watched Chadwick Hopson in the role though, was he any good?

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
    • I just start to laugh thinking about the interview where Leslie related its being Tom Donovan who talked her into doing GH & then, once she was settled in & looked around for him, he had JUST vanished!!
