She Hates Everyone — I've Trained Her Well

Sami and Rafe are at the pier. Sami tells him Will is OK and they don't have to worry about him any more.

Ian tells Stephanie how it is that Daniel couldn't possibly know the results were switched. Kayla walks in and overhears.

Carly paces outside the pub and stares, "You did the right thing for Daniel, Melanie and Chloe. Just make sure it stays that way." She calls Chloe and leaves a message.

Nicole whines and says she knew she someday would destroy the one real friendship she had, "Can't you forgive and forget?"

"I'm better at holding a grudge and remembering," says Chloe.

"Think about it," begs Nicole, "Please don't turn your back on me like Brady did."

Chloe says, "I don't have the right to judge you..."

Nicole says, "But you don't think I'm good enough for Brady."

"That's right," says the formerly non-judgmental Chloe.

Brady comes into the crypt. He says he thinks the people of Salem will throw him a parade for this, "I'll be celebrated. I might even get nominated for some Noble Prize. For drinking, maybe.

Vivian insists, "I am ultimately invincible and will turn the tables on you. Then what will you do? Kill me?"

Rafe doesn't get it. Sami says Kate called and said Stefano doesn't suspect Will anymore. Rafe rains on her parade, "This isn't good news if Will really did shoot EJ."

EJ huffs and puffs as his machines beep, "Samantha... I need to see Samantha." Arianna tells him to calm down. And reconsider.

Carly continues giving the longest phone message in history. Nathan comes up. Carly changes her tune and starts talking about the shower, the gift she gave, Daniel and it all becomes a rambling mess. When she finally hangs up, Nathan notes she mentioned Daniel. "I'm just happy for him," says Carly, "Daniel feels like the luckiest man in the world with Chloe."

"He's not the only one who got lucky with Clhoe ," says Nathan. He badmouths Chloe as Daniel walks up.

Rafe wonders how Sami knows Kate is telling the truth, "I think that Will is gonna become a prime suspect... Unless someone else takes his place."

Arianna rushes back into EJ's room with Lexie.

EJ moans, "My head..." Lexie tells him to calm down.

EJ asks for Samantha, "Where is my wife?"

"Out reloading her pistol."

Brady tells Vivian to relax, "I'm not like you. I don't kill people. Until after I bury them." Vivian rants about her conditions inside the sarcophagus. Brady tells her to shut up, "This is what you were going to do to Maggie."

Vivian whines, "What are you going to do to me?"

"It's all about you, isn't it Viv?"

Rafe tells Sami they have to face the reality that Will's alibi isn't that strong, "Unless there is something you're not telling me."

Sami decides to come clean. This is where it all comes out, "Rafe..."

Oops... phonus interruptus. It's Arianna. Rafe answers and she asks him to get to the hospital with Sami. Rafe hangs up and tells her EJ is waking up. The viewers, on the other hand...

Lexie asks, "Do you know who I am.

EJ goes into full blown panic, "OMG! You're my sister! Get me a real doctor! What happened?"

"You tell me," says Lexie.

"I was getting married," says EJ, "Where is Samantha? Where is my wife?"

Stephanie introduces Ian. Nice-ta-meetchas all around. Ian leaves. Kayla grills Stephanie about the test. Stephanie stammers. Kayla presses and gives Stephanie her serious-mom voice, "Come clean with me, Stephanie Johnson. What could Daniel do that would be so important to you."

"I wish I was in the dark about this like Daniel," says Stephanie.

Nathan wants to explain what he and Carly were talking about, but Daniel says, "We're all entitled to our opinions." Carly's instincts about self preservation kick in and she leaves. Nathan says he's sorry Daniel heard that. Daniel says he isn't surprised and it's not the first time Nathan has been hostile to Chloe, "What is the problem, Nathan? What is it that you have against Chloe?"

Nicole whines, "So this is it? Our friendship is over?"

Chloe whines back, "No... It's just... I don't feel safe with you any more." Nicole admits she screwed up and apologizes. "Maybe this is why you're alone now," says Chloe.

Nicole ramps up the whinerator, "So are you saying nobody loves me? It's a lie."

"Is it," asks Chloe, "I can't think of a friend you have right now."

Nicole thanks her for her candor, "But I know where there is someone who loves me and I'm going there right now." She storms out.

Lexie comes out into the waiting area and says EJ is out of the coma. Sami gives a halfhearted, "Thank God." Lexie says EJ wants to see her.

Vivian zones out. Brady runs through the lives that have improved with her being insarcophago, "The only person I haven't been able to keep from being sacrificed on the altar of sickness of yours is my mom."

"Your mom is resting comfortably," insists Vivian.

"I should finish you off right now," growls Brady.

"If you're going to do it, then do it," screams Vivian, "Put your money where your mouth is."

We pan out from the bone-shaped tombstone reading "Pookie."

Nicole bawls, "You loved me. Didn't you? You never judged me or turned your back on me. You did, however, leave a few messes for me to clean up. I've lost everyone. Why did I have to lose you? Why did you leave me?"

We have a flashback to Chloe, Nicole and Pookie. "She hates me," says Chloe.

"She hates everyone — I've trained her well," says Nicole.

Nicole cries, "You died of a broken heart when I was in prison. I'm so sorry. Now I'm all alone and I will be for all the Days Of Our Lives."

Sami wonders if this isn't a good time to go see EJ. Lexie says EJ was adamant and tells her just to stay calm. Lexie escorts her into EJ's room.

Rafe asks Arianna if she talked to him. "A little," says Arianna, "I think he's having time issues. He thinks Sami is his wife."

"Well, I'll go clear that up," says macho-man. He walks into EJ's room.

EJ sees Rafe and sighs, "You..."

Rafe growls, "What the hell kind of game you playing now, DiMera?"

Stephanie asks, "Remember when you came back before and I said I was worried about Phillip doing things?"

"Yes," says Kayla, "What did he do?"

"Chloe. Her baby is Phillip's. It's a total nightmare. Daniel, Phillip and Chloe don't know about it."

Carly arrives at Chloe's place. She says they have to make sure Nicole keeps quiet. Chloe says Nicole has sworn she will never blab again. Chloe is worried about Carly because of everything she has risked to keep the secret. Carly says she's worried about Daniel and thinks the two of them are meant to be together, "You know the old saying, cheating sleazebags of a feather flock together." Chloe asks who interrupted her when she left the phone message.

Nathan insists he has nothing against Chloe. Daniel says he owes Nathan for his help with coma-Chloe, "But I also know what happened with you and Melanie, and you clearly dislike the woman I love."

"I don't dislike Chloe," says Nathan, "It's what she did."

"What did she do," asks Daniel.

"Phillip."

EJ asks why he's in there. Rafe chuckles because people having their brains blown out is just about the funniest thing ever, "OK, I'll tell you."

Nicole gets up as Mortimer walks up and introduces himself as the director at the cemetery.

Nicole is confused, "It's a cemetery... What do you direct?"

"Actually," says Mortimer, "There is nothing to direct. It's kind of like being a director on DOOL." He says Nicole looks as if she's in distress. Nicole says she's not OK and wants to be alone. Mortimer says he thinks part of the pet stays with a person once the pet is gone. Nicole doesn't agree, "Except I have found a few little surprises Pookie left on the rug that I didn't find before." She searches for her sunglasses, can't find them, blows up and leaves.

Brady laughs. Vivian wants to know what's so funny. Brady says he's not stupid enough to lift the lid and let her scream for help. He says he has a more pressing matter, "Getting back my mother." He leaves.

Daniel wants to know what Nathan is talking about, "You mean the affair I had with Chloe when she was married to Lucas? I'm not proud of what we did, but she and Lucas were just wrong for each other. She is in no way to blame for that and you are judging her." So much for, 'It takes two to tango.'

Stephanie tells Kayla about hacking into the hospital computer. Kayla lectures and points out that was illegal. Stephanie defends herself, "If Melanie and Phillip divorced, Nathan would run to Melanie and once again she'd ruin my life." She tells Kayla about how they found the results were switched, "It wasn't Phillip, Chloe or Daniel, I don't know who else would want to switch them."

Kayla's cup of anger overfloweth, "IT DOESN'T MATTER AND YOU KNOW IT!"

EJ sighs, "OK, tell me what happened." Before Rafe can launch into things, Lexie barges in and drags him out. Arianna comes in, followed by the participants in the Salem Founder's Day Parade.

Outside, Lexie says she won't have Rafe doing that. He says he won't go back in. Lexie tells Sami to remain calm when she's in with EJ. Sami refuses to go in, "If he sees me he'll get upset, unless I'm unarmed."

"Why are you so sure of that," asks Lexie.

Mortimer asks how he can help Brady. Brady says his pet orangutan was interred there. "Oh, yes," gushes Mortimer, "Sparkles is right over there."

"It was a big mistake," says Brady, "I need Sparkles dug up and moved."

Mortimer is mortified, "Butbutbut... she's in a lovely spot."

Brady loses his patience, "You're not listening. I want her out of here... NOW!"

Carly says, "It was Nathan."

"Ooh," gasps Nicole, "That name is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me."

Carly makes one of her uber-sharp observations, "It's clear you don't like each other. He doesn't think you're good enough for Daniel and... OOOHHHHH MMMYYYY GGOOOOODDDD!"

Kayla says whoever switched the results did a terrible thing and it needs to be fixed. Stephanie runs off the rails, "Don't you understand what that would do to..."

"ME!"

Kayla tries to reason, "This is a serious deception with serious repercussions."

Stephanie becomes a one-gal demolition crew, "What about the problems it would cause..."

"ME!"

"If Melanie leaves Phillip, then Nathan Will run to her and leave..."

"ME!"

"Then he isn't worth keeping," says Kayla, "How did you become so desperate and insecure?" (For what it's worth, I blame the parents.)

"I AM NOT DESPERATE," insists Stephanie. She runs out in desperation.

EJ says, "You can't stand the fact Samantha and I are married."

Arianna says, "I think I should have her talk to you." EJ wants to see Samantha now.

Arianna comes out as Sami continues to insist she won't go in. Arianna tells her EJ only remembers up to a certain point in the ceremony.

Rafe butts in, "I don't believe a word of it."

Carly asks, "The man you slept with... was it Nathan?"

Nathan wanders at the pier and calls Stephanie. He gets her voice mail, "I think I screwed up pretty bad."

Stephanie stands behind him, "Me too."

Daniel arrives at Stephanie's apartment. He finds Kayla, hugs her and says, "I assume you're here for Hope."

"It's not the only reason," says Kayla, "Can I talk to you?"

Mortimer says Sparkles is in good hands. Brady gets in his face, "Are you for real?" Nicole walks up as Brady insists on digging up 'Sparkles.'

Mort agrees, "I have an iguana funeral in two hours. I'll see what I can do."

Rafe tells Sami she doesn't have to go in. Lexie suggests Rafe butt out and let Sami decide. Sami decides. She says she will go in. as she heads for the door, Lexie reminds her to take off her engagement ring. Sami takes it off and walks in.

EJ stares. Sami flashes back to the shooting. We come back to EJ staring at her. Sami stares back. The camera flips back to EJ. Back to Sami. EJ... Sami... EJ... Sami... EJ... Sami...

"What did she do," asks Daniel.

"Phillip."
This would be great if this was really said on screen - it would be the first time DOOL writers finally made a point.

Pookie died from dull storylines. Poor Sparkles where ever it may be.

Anyone NOT see EJ unable to remember coming? How long before we find out he is faking it? Didn't we see this storyline or something very similar with these same two characters about two years ago?????

All this camera flip flopping is making......RETCH!....sick.

We it to Friday everyone!!!!

Rafe really is a hell of a guy, isn't he? Is there any possibility of putting him in an irreversible coma? He'd certainly be more interesting, and absolutely more intelligent.

Nicole says, "But you don't think I'm good enough for Brady."

"That's right," says the formerly non-judgmental Chloe.

If Nicole isn’t looking for the unvarnished truth, then she needs to stop asking stupid and leading questions.

Vivian insists, "I am ultimately invincible and will turn the tables on you.”

Isn’t the inside of sarcophagus covered with some sort of paint that’s supposed to make the occupant crazy? In Vivian’s case, she should be getting crazier, but that doesn’t seem to be happening. After being entombed for several days, it also doesn’t appear she’s getting claustrophobic nor does she need a touch up on her hair and makeup. How does she do it?!!

"He's not the only one who got lucky with Clhoe ," says Nathan.

LOL!!!

"I wish I was in the dark about this like Daniel," says Stephanie.

Only because she was caught by her mother. My fondest hope is that Kayla will realize that Stephanie isn’t ready to leave the nest and drags her to wherever she and Steve call home to never be seen again. Hmmmm – maybe Kayla can also grab Melanie. It's probably too much to ask, but it would be nice if she'd haul Rafe's butt out of Salem too.

"Is it," asks Chloe, "I can't think of a friend you have right now."

Nicole needs to get a kitten or a puppy – stat!!!!!!!

We pan out from the bone-shaped tombstone reading "Pookie."

Nicole bawls, "You loved me.”

See – I was right! LOL!!!

"Well, I'll go clear that up," says macho-man. He walks into EJ's room.

Give me a freakin’ break!! Doesn't it figure that Rafe feels threatened by a man that just emerged from a coma, but who let him just waltz into EJ’s room? Rafe has absolutely no couth.

Brady gets in his face, "Are you for real?" Nicole walks up as Brady insists on digging up 'Sparkles.'

Poor Pookie had to die to bring Nicole and Brady back together, so now Nicole will get involved up to her eyeballs in the sarcophaguzation of Vivian storyline. Sigh. I read that Mortimer is being played by French Stewart. Can we please have a Prevuze review? Is it thumbs up or thumbs down?

Lexie suggests Rafe butt out and let Sami decide.

Lexie needs to spend more time around Agent Arrogant, because Rafe has a real issue recognizing boundaries.

Great photos Prevuze!!! The line forming outside of EJ’s room was too funny and too true!!! TGIF and TGFP!!!!!!!

Nearly spilled my coffee when I saw the EJ/Ari pic & her reaction to him saying Sami's name...LOL!

From their conversation it seems that NicHO & ClHOe are breaking up after all...bad idea. If drunken blabbermouth Nicole doesn't spill the beans, how will Daniel ever know about his beloved's little tryst with her BFF Phillip, or who the real baby-daddy is now that the test results have been changed...Oh, the angst!!!

"Rafe doesn't get it"..."Rafe rains on her parade"...Hmmm, trouble in paradise for Safe???

"EJ goes into full blown panic, 'OMG! You're my sister!'"...it's good to know EJ has retained at least ONE of his brain cells and thinks it would be wrong to be with his sister on his wedding night...it also means he's not Mormon, where a "sister" could be one of his many wives...

"We pan out from the bone-shaped tombstone reading 'Pookie.'"...I miss Pookie! The dog lover in me is grieving at this great DOOL loss...

SO, EJ is staying aliiiiiivvvvveee(sorry, having a Bee Gees moment)...finally, he's showing signs of real brain activity. Things are looking up...

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Kayla walks in and overhears.

And, there you have it. As I said a few weeks ago, the ONLY reason they would have Stephanie continue to obsess over who switched results was so someone, sometime would overhear her talking about it. So damn predictable.

Vivian insists, "I am ultimately invincible.

I’ll give her this. She has unbelievable bladder control (or else it’s pretty damp where she’s laying) and apparently can go without water longer than a camel.

Vivian whines, "What are you going to do to me?" "It's all about you, isn't it Viv?"

Well, at this point it’s kinda YEAH! LOL

If you overlook the fact that ALL of the current storylines are unbelievably stupid, at least today's episode seemed to have some activity going for it.

Thanks Prevuze. Hellooooo weekend!

Script for script, word for word (almost). In fact, rumor has it they're bringing Lucas back to pour a can of paint over EJ's head.

My fondest hope is that Kayla will realize that Stephanie isn’t ready to leave the nest and drags her to wherever she and Steve call home to never be seen again. Hmmmm – maybe Kayla can also grab Melanie. It's probably too much to ask, but it would be nice if she'd haul Rafe's butt out of Salem too.

Do I sense an agenda? LOL!

I read that Mortimer is being played by French Stewart. Can we please have a Prevuze review? Is it thumbs up or thumbs down?

He didn't have a big role today, so it's hard to tell. I generally think the bit characters do a good job on the show if for no other reason than we get a change of pace with them, and the fact they have a history the writers haven't been able to rewrite or screw up yet. Thumbs up.

We pan out from the bone-shaped tombstone reading 'Pookie.'

Heartbreaking scene. Devastating. Bring the tissues.

If you overlook the fact that ALL of the current storylines are unbelievably stupid, at least today's episode seemed to have some activity going for it.

If you overlook the stupidity, DOOL has a room full of Emmys and counts as good drama.

Rafe at least has some investigatory responsibility to visit EJ's room, but what the heck is Arianna's excuse? "Um, he was my lawyer on my latest felony conviction." And somehow she claims the moral high ground?

French Stewart did a great job on Private Practice last night, I'm sure he can handle "Mortimer".

Nicole went to Pookie and not Mom? Oh, yeah, it doesn't have to make sense, just another awkward link in the plot chain.

Oops, sorry make that Arianna's last charge, not conviction. So hard to keep track some Days...

Did Vivian tell Brady Brady exactly where she stuck Isabella? If not, how does he know they aren't going to actually dig up Sparkles?

"Then he isn't worth keeping," says Kayla, "How did you become so desperate and insecure?" First, I couldn't agree more about the Nathan assessment. Second, please add "and an obsessed ninny" to the second one.

I try to look on the bright side. This episode does have a couple of things going for it, lack of mopey Hope or I-act-like-I'm-five-Melanie.

LOL over "There is nothing to direct. It's kind of like being a director on DOOL." But the one that really sent me into giggles was EJ...Sami...EJ...Sami...EJ...Sami... It's like a B movie! Or a skit of a B movie on Carol Burnett with Carol and Harvey Korman. HAHAHA

Thanks for helping us to Friday, Prevuze. Have a nice one everyone. :D

This Ejami hopes that it somehow brings the two together and we finally have a super couple back on this show. Granted, I do like Stef-n-ho. But really, who wants to see THAT love scene?

Again, where's that pail?

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

aw, poor Ari :( She's been massaging EJ this whole time (probably gotten him around more bases than he's been in months if not years, lol) and the first thing EJ asks for is Sami. She should have held a pillow over his face, haha. Or said, "I'm sorry but that two-faced-b*** is off screwing my brother and your children have been taken by Children's Services."


Okay, I'm sorry, but I have to say it. DOOL is taking Passions storylines, twisting them a bit, and well yes, making a mockery of bits of them. Actually lets make it more general. DOOL is taking old JER storylines and re-doing them in odd/less dramatic ways.

EJ faking amnesia and Sami staying with him so she doesn't kill him is Luis-Sheridan-Antonio mess all over again! Only Antonio wasn't faking, lol. And "Sparkles the Orangutan"??? Seriously DOOL? Why not just name it Precious so you don't have to pretend that's where you got the idea from. Although it should be Rafe's pet not Brady's just so you know....and the Viv buried alive storyline? That obviously doesn't need an explanation of what JER storyline that was ripped from.


Also, Chloe must be trying to push Nicole to a suicidal state or something! "You have no friends and nobody likes you! Leave!" Ahh! Poor Nicki. And to top it off poor Pookie's died of a broken heart :(
