A Real Blockbuster

We're back at the Horton cabin where Florence Nightingale Layton-Kiriakis is compassionately tending to Chloe. Chloe is singing one of her opera arias, although the volume is way too high for most people's taste. Oh, waitaminute... that's not Clhoe singing... it's a banshee wailing... no... banshees wail a lot better than Chloe sings, so it must be... YES! Chloe is screaming in excruciating pain as her labor continues. OK, now I'm on track. I wondered why Chloe's singing sounded so good. Melanie coaches, "OK... the baby's eyes are out..."

Chloe blubbers, "What do you mean its EYES are out? Don't they usually come out with the head?"

"Yeah," says Melanie, "But in this case, the eyes are bugged out so far they got there ahead of everything else. And... the baby's face is blue. OMG! That must mean it's a boy!"

Caroline is counseling Stephanie about the BIG SECRET. "Maybe Chloe will be bright enough to keep her mouth shut about who the baby's father is and you'll get Nathan."

"Chloe isn't bright enough to light a dark room."

Brady and Rafe look through Arianna's things. Rafe is over-obvious that he wants a camera and Brady thinks it contains proof of who shot EJ. Speak of the devil, the devil himself walks in. So does EJ.

Nicole shows back up at the Hernandez Hovel and tells Sami Sydney will be back in her life with Sami's blessing, "I know everything about how you shot EJ."

Chloe huffs, puffs and squeals. Melanie encourages her to push. Melanie flies across the room, "The baby," says Melanie, "Not me, you nincompoop!"

EJ says both he and Rafe are there for the video, no matter what Rafe says.

Sami plays it cool and suggests Nicole has been talking to EJ. Nicole says she didn't learn this from EJ. Nicole tells her to check her email. Sami checks. "I sent you a video," says Nicole, "It's a real blockbuster."

Chloe pushes, Melanie pulls. Daniel and Phillip arrive right along with baby boy Jonas... or Kiriakis, as it were. Daniel cleans the kid up and hands the two-month old baby to Chloe.

Caroline rags on Phillip for giving up Pocket-Tyler-Whoozits and mocks Stephanie about what would happen if she told the big secret. Stephanie says she has made up her mind and she's already called Uncle Roman.

Nicole helps Sami and the video with Sami's big confession comes up. Sami hyperventilates, "I... How did you get this?"

Nicole says she found the video camera, "Sometimes things just fall into your lap."

"Like Rafe," says Sami, "That happens to me a lot." She rummages through Nicole's purse looking for the camera.

Daniel wants to get Chloe to the hospital. Chloe reluctantly agrees. Daniel thinks the baby needs better timing, "You scared the hell out of me, son."

"Wait till he drives a car," says Chloe.

"At least Arianna won't be around for him to go after," Says Daniel.

Caroline tells Stephanie, "I hope you're ready for the fallout." Believe me, if Stephanie doesn't button the top she's wearing there will be fallout of a different kind. Caroline says she’ll escort Stephanie to the station.

Roman is with Nathan at the hospital. He congratulates him on the big engagement. Roman announces he and Stephanie are meeting today and Nathan expresses surprise.

EJ says he's talking about the video of the will. He says he doesn't have anything to remember Arianna by so he asks for a copy of the will. Brady tells him to take it up with Justin. They stop him from going through Arianna's things and EJ leaves. Brady notes that Rafe and EJ seem to be after the same camera. Brady recaps what happened with the accident, but Rafe wonders if Brady is taking stock in what EJ said. Brady asks him, "Sami shot EJ, didn't she?"

"Yes, she did," says Rafe, "But she deliberately hit him in an area where she knew she couldn't do any damage — his brain."

Nicole is amused. She tells Sami she didn't bring the camera there, but all of the Internet can see her make her confession now. She starts the video again, but Sami stops it. Nicole says if they get the gun out of the river they can still get her fingerprints off of it, "Tell my homies in prison I said 'Hi.'" Nicole says she is either ready to make a deal or ready to go viral with the video.

Daniel and Chloe sit on the bed and check out the kid. Chloe worries that they haven’t picked a name yet. Daniel says they will figure that later. Chloe asks if Melanie wants to hold him and Melanie rushes to accept. "I'm your big sister," says the kid's step-mom. Daniel gets emotional and Phillip suggests a picture of the happy, if not totally dysfunctional, family.

Rafe covers for Sami, but Brady doesn't buy it. Brady also assures Rafe he can't stand EJ and hopes the proof went poof.

Meanwhile Nicole continues to pressure Sami. She says she didn't confront Sami before this because it was EJ she shot and there are extenuating circumstances with him, "I won't tell, but you have to do what I say... Sydney."

Roman is with Caroline and Stephanie but Stephanie asks for a moment alone with Caroline. Roman leaves and Stephanie says she's going to tell Roman SHE switched the results. Caroline doesn't thing that's right, but decides she could do without the 20 years in prison that would bring her. Nathan interrupts and asks about Stephanie's meeting with Roman. Stephanie decides to go find him as they wheel Chloe and Danchloephil Jr. in.

EJ is in the rumpus room on the phone asking about Arianna's will. He wants a copy and asks for Justin to call. He hangs up and wonders what happened to the evidence.

Nicole says she doesn't want custody but just wants to be part of Sydney's life. Sami (or the personality she has brought forth at the moment) ain' happy. Nicole presents her case, "You have to admit I was a great mother. I can't be a mother now and Sydney is it for me. Unless we come up with an arrangement the only time you can see her is during visiting hours." Sydney cries and Nicole goes to check on her.

Nathan hauls Danchloephil Jr. to the natal unit. Melanie tells Stephanie what happened at the cabin. Stephanie figures out Phillip was there and stammers. "One minute Chloe was in all this pain," says Phillip, "And the next minute there was a little baby in the room." Named Melanie.

Rafe thinks EJ will do anything possible to get back at Sami. He reminds Brady Sami was with him the night EJ was shot.

Sami blocks Nicole from getting to Sydney. "OK," says Nicole, "Then have fun in the big-house. Going to prison will be a bubble bath compared to what would happen to you if EJ sees that video." Sami suggests EJ may get custody. Nicole says she doesn't want that but leaves to "file the story."

Daniel and Chloe are in THE hospital room smooching. Melanie joins them and Daniel goes to check on the baby. Chloe thanks Melanie for what she did. Melanie don' wan' no stinkin' thanks, "I did it for my little brother. I'm not going to tell Daniel either."

Daniel wheels Danchloephil, Jr. in and gives him to Phillip to hold.

EJ obsesses over the the statuette, "Why this... what does it mean?" He crushes it.

Sami catches Nicole and brings her back inside. Nicole insists she isn't asking for much, but just wants a small part in Sydney's life. Sami says if she did that people would figure out that something is up. Nicole says they can just tell people they had a heart-to-heart. Unfortunately, they would need two hearts to do that. Sami doesn't think saving her freedom will be worth anything if Nicole is involved in their lives. "You should have thought about Sydney before you pulled the trigger," says Nicole. She turns to leave and Slammin' Sami attacks.

Phillip bounces the baby. Caroline watches. Melanie comes out and Phillip introduces his brother-in-law. He passes the kid back to Daniel and everyone stares.

Daniel brings the baby into Mama Clhoe. Daniel suggests naming the kid after his mom, who's maiden name was Parker — also a cross between Pocket and Tyler.

Phillip and Melanie watch through the blinds. "You're really into this baby, aren't you," asks Melanie.

"Yeah," says Phillip, "I'm ready to be a father." Hope so, because...

In Salem you don't have to worry about what other people think... because they don't do it very often.

Stephanie tells Roman things aren't a big deal and backs out of their meeting. Roman leaves. Caroline tells Stephanie she did the right thing. "For now," says Stephanie.

Rafe goes through the box and finds no proof, "Whatever she had must've died when she did." Brady thinks EJ won't buy it. Rafe leaves.

EJ picks up the pieces of the statuette and finds nothing. Then he gazes over at his desk and walks over to I. He looks at the picture of Johnny.

CAT FIGHT!

Sami slugs Nicole, who hits her head on the table and goes down in flames and a pool of blood.



Previews
========

Chad tells Kate, "I'm going to find out the truth one way or another."

Jennifer tells Hope, "I came back here to get you the hell out of here."

Nicole's head gushes blood. Rafe checks her out. Sami gasps, "Rafe, I think she's dead!"

Chloe blubbers, "What do you mean its EYES are out? Don't they usually come out with the head?"

the reason I'm so glad I'm retired - I can laugh as much as I want when reading Prevuze & not get in trouble.

Which is a worse name for a kid Pocket or Blanket? Too bad Blanket's dad wasn't on Dool - he could come back from the dead ...

For once, the writers allowed someone to use half of a brain on this show. I find it impressive that Nicole was smart enough not to bring the camera with her to Sami's. Of course, now Sami's tried to bash her skull in-what's the excuse for Sami's behavior this time?

It's no excuse..there really are TOO MANY personalities inside Sami! You can tell because of the "psycho" music playing when she snapped and gave Nicole the knuckle sandwich. If we hadn't had the HOpe Personality Clash earlier this year they could really run with this one. Rafe keeps proclaiming she will never lose him..she's gonna make him prove it. This was a fast moving episode for once. I thought for sure the shortest pregnancy in the history of Salem would end with the longest labor on record..thank God that wasn't the case. Chloe's wailing was just too much to bear. Thanks for the bright spot in my day Prevuze!

First LOL Prevuze moment – the picture of Bart. Unfortunately, not Stefano's Bart; but the Simpson's Bart fits the picture better.

Believe me, if Stephanie doesn't button the top she's wearing there will be fallout of a different kind.

My monitor just about had a close encounter of the yogurt-spewing kind when I hit that one.

I'll skip the over-the-top idiocy of Chloe giving birth in 20 minutes (especially a first-time mother) and the stupidity of Melanie telling her to PUSH when the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby's neck. Heck, I've never had a lick of medical training and I'D know better than that.

What really got my HUH?! juices flowing in today's episode is Stephanie.

Now that everything is finally the way she wanted it, what she's been whining about for months – Mel & Phil, Chloe & Daniel all happily married; her mom out of the country so the test switching secret is safe – NOW she insists she wants the truth to come out. So believable! And such a time-waster since we know there is no way in the world she's going to go through with it.

Another HUH?! is Sami's absolute refusal to meet Nicole's demands. I realize she doesn't have a whole lotta love in her heart for the woman. But let Nicole see Sydney once in a while or go to jail for attempted murder & lose your kids to EJ? Jeez, talk about a no brainer.

Final observation: I am glad they gave the little boy a decent name. I was worried Chloe would suggest they him after his big sister, the uber-nurse who help bring him into the world - Mel. Eeeesh

Bless you for your recap Prevuze.

What's the matter with Caroline telling Step-on-me that ClHOe would be bright if she keept her mouth shut???...Ok, let's see...the first problem with her theory is...Is Chloe bright??? Alrighty then! Second of all, Nate has proven to us that he's no smarter than a stick! Even if the truth comes out about Phloe's debraification(and we all know that the truth always finds it's way out on DOOL) there's no guarantee he will dump Steph! Nate might be dense, but he's not cruel. So the whole point of concealing the truth is bogus at this point! Besides, I'm not sure Mel would want anything to do with him! I know I wouldn't! Smart men are so much more desirable than dumb ones...

"EJ says he's talking about the video of the will. He says he doesn't have anything to remember Arianna by so he asks for a copy of the will."...Good one EJ! Like anyone's gonna believe that line! How about that fabulous snooze-fest of a book she gave you to read while you were recovering from half your brain oozing out? Isn't that something to remember her by? I gotta say it though...I love crafty EJ! He's great when he's got his game on!

"'Yes, she did,' says Rafe, 'But she deliberately hit him in an area where she knew she couldn't do any damage — his brain.'"...LMAO!

"Nicole presents her case, 'You have to admit I was a great mother. I can't be a mother now and Sydney is it for me."...Nicole's case is pretty weak. She was a mother to a child she stole from Sami and claimed as her own, and now she wants Sami's child again because she can't be a mother? Is she CRAZY??...the answer would be YES!

I'm glad Sami didn't allow Nicole to trick her into being in Sydney's life. Unlike EJ, who in the past fell for Nicole's BS, Sami has always been smarter than that! Nicole is a train wreck...wherever she goes, she brings nothing but havoc to people's lives.

I can't wait to hear all the sanctimonious excuses Rafe who used to be a freeking FBI agent will use to justify the fact that Sami attacked Nicole, if he can forgive killing his sister he can forgive anything.

Melanie said the baby keeps slipping back into the birth canal. Maybe the kid saw who his mother is and wanted to stay there.

Why would EJ want a copy of the video will? Maybe he thinks the outcome will be different this time.

I agree, this sudden 180 with Steponme is so unbelievable. But then so is the way Caroline's acting.

At least we were spared anyone in a sarcophagus today! And I loved Danchloephil Jr. and Bart's picture.

Thanks for the recap. It's very late and since I haven't had time to watch today's yet I can rest easy now.

And... the baby's face is blue. OMG! That must mean it's a boy!"

LOL!!!!!

Stephanie says she has made up her mind and she's already called Uncle Roman.

Why? To turn in her grandmother? Any normal dishonest person would find a way to make the hospital responsible for botching up the paternity test.

"I'm your big sister," says the kid's step-mom. Daniel gets emotional and Phillip suggests a picture of the happy, if not totally dysfunctional, family.

Holiday dinners with this bunch will undoubtedly be frightening.

Rafe covers for Sami, but Brady doesn't buy it. Brady also assures Rafe he can't stand EJ and hopes the proof went poof.

Rafe and Brady are supposed to be the good guys, but neither one of them seem to be appalled by what Sami did to EJ. If my fiancé had attempted to murder a former lover, I’d be changing the locks and asking for police protection.

Roman is with Caroline and Stephanie but Stephanie asks for a moment alone with Caroline.

Stephanie didn’t have enough alone time with Caroline on the way to the hospital?

EJ obsesses over the the statuette, "Why this... what does it mean?" He crushes it.

It means that EJ destroyed a rare statue of Quetzalcoatl worth millions.

Rafe goes through the box and finds no proof, "Whatever she had must've died when she did."

Wow – that’s pretty harsh. This is the same guy who blubbered during his much loved sister’s memorial service, followed it up by boinking a woman whose actions contributed to the death of his much loved sister, and moved on to declaring the evidence linking his boinkee to EJ’s shooting died with his much loved sister. Whatta guy! Whatta brother! Whatta hypocrite!

Sami slugs Nicole, who hits her head on the table and goes down in flames and a pool of blood.

It would appear that tables are now Sami’s weapon of choice. Let’s see her toss that in Salem’s river.

Thanks Prevuze!

To both Anon at 9:05 PM & Leslie - Ari was HIT BY A CAR, Sami did not kill her, not even remotely. If you're going down that path it's Will that killed her, Sami wasn't even on the scene.

To the last anonymous, true Sami didn't kill Ari, but did u miss the scene where she tried to grab the exceedingly large paperweight? Obviously she was gonna bash Ari over the head with it. Sami's a murderer through and through. I hope everyone in that apartment sleeps with 1 eye open.
