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.

      Which is still a form of manipulation. Granted it won't work because Ted isn't interested in Leslie at all no matter how much she tries to make him look like a horrible person. When you consider the situation with Hayley it does make sense why Anita would take that approach.

      Another good one and great episode to start off the week. Confrontations, character moments, movement, and an awful lot of bubbles on display. lol.    I've found myself liking Sara Bibel breakdowns. And this episode might be why. I sense movement of plot going on. And Jazmen being on script duty has already become a highlight for me. So this episode dealing with more fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal was another good one. And even got a solid B plot moving in the Vanessa/Doug/Joey storyline...which I just said yesterday...has been the only one of the B plots...that has real build to it so far.    You are not a real soap pariah until you get dragged and a community treats you as such. So basically another old school soap vibe that Eva is giving me. Watching her trying to find her footing only to be read by just about everyone she has encountered has been great. It makes her so rootable. And she's played by an excellent actress. Cuz that quivering lip at the end with her and Anita...ooooo some of you all seem heated for Anita making poor girl cry even though it's her fault. That's great acting. Not to mention writing.    I also love that the side character got their point of view. I loved Mona moving about town trying to get info to avenge Nicole in a way. And she dragged Eva. She read Silk Press Sheila. And that 'enjoy the burn' was well-said. And did I see a spark with Mona and Randy? Hmmm. I don't mind.

          I also didn't mind that Martin/Kat scene. I enjoy their sibling relationship so far. And I feel like the right thing to do to keep them close as they support their mother. It even made sense that Martin would soften to the idea of Eva as part of the family given their brief scene at the start of this storyline. Meanwhile, NO from Kat. lol. And she's already questioning the DNA test...OF COURSE SHE IS. But again...that avail...her and Eva being the SAME age. Twins. I just felt the writers are really foreshadowing that heavy. Meanwhile, the SilkPress saga is far from over.   I love the parade of Ted Visitors. LMAO!!! I thought Dani vs Ted was pretty good. But I about fell out when Anita walked up in there like old school Sonny Corinthos. And I hollered with Anita wiping the floor with Ted with Dani in the background like Jason Morgan. Watch your step, Theodore. Anita was giving Boss Bitca and I was living.    That said...I didn't like Anita making poor Eva cry. But as was said above...the stuff with Hayley is still too fresh on the Duprees' mind. So sadly understandable, Anita set down the law.    Uh oh. Dani saw Vanessa with Joey. Granted they are not the BFFs, but I do hope that that means we are getting a Dani/Vanessa scene. And I loved that we got another step in the B storyline. Doug fighting (and failing) in his addiction. Meanwhile, Vanessa resisted hers. And Joey did not look happy.    And saying the best for last. I LOVE Nicole vs Silk Press Sheila. Ooooo Nicole got under her skin good. And I loved it. I also hollered at Silk Press couldn't even be fake nice for 5 whole minutes to her. DD did soooooooo good. The body language. The looks. The inflections on just the right words. I LOOOVVVE that confrontation and looking forward to more since she clearly verbally cracked SilkPress's face. Meanwhile, I was just as taken aback at Ted showing up at Silk Press Sheila's place. I also thought it was another fantasy. Nope. And then SilkPress put the moves on him and went just a little more cray cray in the coda.    Just such a great episode.

      Nope still in development. ABC/Disney are having their upfronts today though, so there's a very slight hope we might get an update.

      I agree. Especially after SilkPress got back to her apartment and started to mock Nicole. Her dislike for Nicole and seeing her as a threat to her getting Teddy Bear is growing worse. So I could see her pulling a kidnapping on Nicole at some point. If anything she was going there to poke the bear and got pressed (pun unintended) when the bear gathered her.   Completely understandable.
