Somewhere Between Scared To Death And Halfway Crazy

Carly is in the Patch-n-Billie-ation ward with Melanie, Nathan and the Grim Reaper. She fills the hypo with the deadly Dungcootie Fever virus and...

JAM-PLUNGE!

She injects it into her arm. Dr. Daniel Jekyll stands outside watching the scene. Suddenly a switch flips and he turns into Mr. Dan Hyde. Deranged Mr. Hyde busts a gizzard. A guard comes up and tries to calm him down. Dan wheels around and lets him have it.

SMACK!

What happened to, "First, do no harm?"

Stephanie tells Phillip she's talking about him being Parker's father.

Rafe tries to convince EJ to let the kids come home for the holidays. EJ refuses. Braveheart begs Coldheart who says if Sami has any contact with the kids she goes to prison.

Nicole plays with Allie in the garden and serves fake tea. Sami watches and starts to come up to them but Nicole stops her. Sami insists Nicole give her Sydney.

Daniel takes the guard's keys and has him scram. He goes inside and asks Carly why she did that. Melanie and Nathan whine about her being in there, but it's too late, Carly is Dungcootie Fever-ized Daniel refuses to give her the drug. Carly begs, "If I don't get that drug, you know what the outcome is going to be."

Daniel says, "I realize it's life-or-death, but if your insurance doesn't cover it, you're toast."

Phillip says, "I know what you're talking about. I get it now."

"You'll get it when Daniel finds out," says Stephanie.

Rafe asks EJ to cut Will and Allie a little slack. EJ's not in a slack-cutting mood.

Nicole urges Sami to get away. Sami urges Nicole to take a flying leap.

Phillip thinks Stephanie heard Daniel tell him to look after Parker if something happens to Daniel. Stephanie says she gets it but Phillip still needs to hear the truth. Chloe stands behind them. "The truth about what," asks Clhoe.

Carly tells Daniel since he has a new baby she had to infect herself instead. She urges him to get out of the infected room. Daniel says the anti-virus could overwhelm her system since it was geared to his weight. "Well, I've gained a few pounds lately," says Carly. Melanie chimes in and asks Carly not to do this.

EJ says, "These are my final words on this." Don't we wish? "There will be absolutely no contact. Are we clear?" Rafe pulls out a family picture to prove all the kids are a family. EJ rips it apart, "Not any more."

Sami and Nicole fight over Sydney. King Solomon walks up and draws his sword, "I have a solution." Nicole tells Sami she's trespassing, "I'm here because EJ wants me here. It's bigger than me giving him the camera. It's about Sydney. She and I have a deep connection. You're jealous and insecure because she's never loved you the way she loves me."

Carly assures Melanie they will get through this. She begs Daniel for the drug. Daniel plans to stay in the room and get infected. "We don't have time," says Carly. She faints. Even though she's got one foot in the grave, Daniel refuses to give her the drug. Melanie goes to Freak-out-land. She tells Daniel if Carly gets really sick he has to give her the drug.

Rafe tells EJ he doesn't give a damn about his kids. EJ begs to differ. Rafe begs to differ with EJ's begging to differ. EJ begs... you get the idea. He claims in time the kids will drift apart and even forget their mother, "It will be like she didn't exist at all."

Sami denies Sydney could still love Nicole. Nicole disagrees and claims she's protecting Sydney, "For your information I just wanted to spend time with Sydney. I don't want sole possession."

"I am already aware you don't posses a sole," says Sami.

Machines beep. Daniel tells Nathan to hang in there. All those years of med-school and that's what he comes up with. Melanie tells Carly to be strong. Carly tells Melanie she loves her, "I know I've made some terrible mistakes... you were the biggest one of them." She tells Daniel if he doesn't inject her she won't last.

Daniel prepares the hypo.

Phillip 'splains. He says Stephanie means he will never be a good dad. Clhoe thinks he'll be a great dad. Parker and Pocket will cast the deciding votes.

Rafe says someday Johnny will run into Allie and they will wonder what happened to their mom. EJ says by then he will have brainwashed the kids into thinking their mother was a manipulative liar who tried to murder their father.

"You SOB," says Rafe.

"That's something I have in common with my kids," says EJ, "Well, I guess one of them is a Daughter of a..."

Sami says she just wants to hold Sydney for a few minutes. Nicole grabs Sami and yells for EJ.

Dr. Ben takes Chloe aside and tells her what Daniel has done, and also about Carly injecting herself. They figure both Carly and Daniel are now infected. "We have 3 doctors and a nurse in there. They all could die." At least the world of medicine will be better off.

There's a whole lotta coughin' goin' on in the isolation ward. Daniel tells Nathan to breathe. "If I could I wouldn't be coughing," says Nathan.

Dr. Ben says he talked to Daniel in isolation and will keep Chloe informed. Justin and Adrienne walk up. Justin goes off to call Bo and tell him about Carly. Clhoe falls apart and Phillip is there to comfort her.

Adrienne asks how Stephanie is doing. Stephanie is a mess, as usual. Somehow she'll work it around to this all being her fault.

Nicole continues to yell. EJ walks up, "Samantha, off all people."

Daniel puts an ice-pack on Nathan's forehead. Nathan calls for his mother, then for Melanie. Daniel says he understands. "No one understands," says Nathan, "I love her." The fever has gone to his brain.

Stephanie says, "When we talked before I was a mean, whiny bitch. I'm still a mean, whiny bitch, but I've calmed down." Adrienne and Stephanie kiss and make up, then look at Phillip and Clhoe across the room doing consolation by cuddle. Stephanie tells Adrienne Parker isn't going to lose his dad.

EJ rants. He asks Nicole to grab Sydney and take her inside. Nicole scoops her up. On the way out, she reaches out and rips Sami's heart out. EJ says if they pull this kind of stuff again the deal is over. He says each year on their birthdays he's going to sit the kids down and show them the video of Sami's confession.

"You'll have to pay us royalties," says Rafe.

Daniel asks Carly how the pain is going. Carly says the pain is doing just fine. Nathan goes into full-blown delirium. Melanie tells Carly she and Daniel did a great thing, "You're really a team."

"So were the 1962 Mets," says Carly.

Nathan runs off the rails, "I should have told you the truth."

"The truth about what," asks Daniel.

Stephanie tells Adrienne Phillip is Parker's father.

Justin returns and tells Chloe and Phillip he couldn't reach Bo. Chloe walks off. Justin asks how Phillip is. "Somewhere between scared to death and halfway crazy," says Phillip, "Melanie has to get through this."

Stephanie tells Adrienne about Chloe and Phillip's romp, and the switcheroo, "Daniel Chloe and Phillip still think the baby is Daniel's, but mom knows the truth." Adrienne thinks Melanie will run to Nathan. "Now they could all die," says Stephanie, "At least that would solve everything."

Nicole tells Sydney there will always be a bond between them. Translation, the bond is doomed. EJ walks in and says Nicole did the right thing calling him. "Did I pass the test," asks Nicole.

Rafe chases Sami down at the pier. He catches her and says he gets why she was at the DiMera mansion, but advises her not to do it again. He says he was there trying to get through to EJ. "You went there and I ruined that, too," says Sami.

"Yep," says Rafe, "Your record of being a complete train wreck is safe."

EJ says the jury is still out on Nicole and Sydney. Nicole asks to tuck Sydney in. EJ OK’s it and sends her upstairs with the baby. Nicole leaves. EJ buries his face in his hands.

Rafe tells Sami she didn't ruin anything. He says they can't give up. Sami says she just couldn't stand being away from her kids, "I can't live with out Johnny and Sydney, and I won't." Hugs.

Phillip tells Clhoe there is no news. Justin tells them to hang in there. Hey, he came up with that and he doesn't even have a medical degree. Phillip says if things go south with Daniel he'll look after her and Parker and help Parker get a good home with a stranger like he did Pocket.

Stephanie wonders what to do if Nathan recovers. Adrienne says, "That is something only you can answer."

Nathan rambles. He fades out and Daniel calls for him. Melanie assures Carly they'll all get better, "I can't lose you. I love you."

"I love you," says Carly. She stops breathing.

Melanie yells, "MOM! MOM!"

"MMMOOOOMMMMMMYYYYY!!!"

Previews

Kate is on the phone, "In short, You're screwed!"

UGH!!! SOOOOOO sick of Rafe. Can't he just go away? Hook him up with Stephanie and send them BOTH packing!

I just have one question-- why in the world doesn't the DiMera mansion have around the clock guards and a top-knotch security system to keep people wandering through their homes whenever they please. You would think that someone as paranoid as Stefano would have first class protection plus a security guard at the gate.

I hate what the writers have done to my favorite characters, Sami, and I'm sincerely hoping that this an eternally long dream sequence a la dynasty, or taking place in an alternate universe like in the old Dark Shadows series.

I want my EJAMI BACK and RIGHT NOW! aka Xeresa!

If Sami can't live without Johnny and Sydney, maybe the writers will do us all a favor and have Sami commit suicide. I realize that, as a "good Catholic", that would eternally damn her soul to hell, but I think she's pretty well set herself on that path already. Then Ali Sweeney can leave if that's what she wants to do, and they won't have to attempt a recast. And then there will be no reason for Rafe to be on the show anymore, and maybe we can get off of this merry-go-round of a storyline.

From the number of comments I'm seeing here, it seems like we're ALL going through Ejami-withdrawals.

I did happen to see the show today, and I must say it was almost bearable to watch. The action, which was amazingly one sided...Dan-the-man was either hitting or groping everyone who came into contact with him...so it occured to me that he could never contact this dreaded Dungcootie Fever virus himself, since he's probably immune to any deadly virus known to man, from having groped all of Salem's population and whomever they came into contact with. AND, rather than groping everyone in the isolation ward and putting their lives in more danger, did he never think of conacting the CDC to get some advice on what anitivurus dosage he should use on Carly? Practicing medicine and Salem U don't seem to go together well...

This whole Dr. Dan coming up with a cure for Dungcootie Fever is the dumbest thing since Squints entire brain was stored on/restored from a CD.

Can anyone explain this complete 180 with Steponme now determined to tell everyone the big secret??... Anyone?... Bueller?

I'm not kidding, one of my favorite watches is my Mickey watch. So I guess Rafe and I have something in common there.

Totally aroused suspicion of my coworkers when I was laughing over "I realize it's life-or-death, but if your insurance doesn't cover it, you're toast." and EJ begs to differ. Rafe begs to differ with EJ's begging to differ.

Great recap today, Prevuze! Now I have to go in and try to watch the episode without snoozing.....

Carly is in the Patch-n-Billie-ation ward with Melanie, Nathan and the Grim Reaper.

I’m rooting for the Grim Reaper.

Dan wheels around and lets him have it.

SMACK!

What happened to, "First, do no harm?"

Of all the numbnuts involved in this storyline, Daniel is the only one showing any type of emotion.

Stephanie says she gets it but Phillip still needs to hear the truth.

The love of Stephanie’s life is stricken with Dungcootie Fever, and all she can think about is outing Phillip to Daniel. Stephanie needs a one-way ticket to Bora Bora to live with her parents.

“You're jealous and insecure because she's never loved you the way she loves me."

I thought Sami showed great restraint by not going for Nicole’s jugular. That statement should have triggered the mother of all catfights.

Rafe tells EJ he doesn't give a damn about his kids. EJ begs to differ. Rafe begs to differ with EJ's begging to differ. EJ begs... you get the idea.

Yep, the writers made their point again and again and again. Don’t they think the viewers get it? Duh! EJ and Rafe don’t see eye to eye. This conversation is absurd on so many levels. Why would Mary even let Rafe into the mansion? Since he did manage to get past the guards, EJ would be well within his rights to kick Rafe’s sorry butt out of his home. EJ has the goods on Sami, Will, and Rafe, so Rafe having the temerity to try to talk to EJ is pretty silly. If that little grouping is in jail, none of them can spend the holidays with any of the kids. Geez.

Melanie tells Carly she and Daniel did a great thing, "You're really a team."

"So were the 1962 Mets," says Carly.

At least the Amazin’ Mets had Casey Stengel.

Nathan runs off the rails, "I should have told you the truth."

"The truth about what," asks Daniel.

Well, I guess that’s proof that Nathan and Steponme belong together.

"I can't live with out Johnny and Sydney, and I won't."

Sami spent months in witless protection with her FBI boytoy, and Johnny was no where to be seen. Sami has selective angst.

Mickey Mouse Rafe wears a Mickey Mouse watch, and Bo, the hypocrite, caught sweeping evidence under the rug. LOL!!! Great stuff Prevuze!!!

I nearly spewed my coffee reading this line -- I think Bulldog gets the prize today!

I thought Sami showed great restraint by not going for Nicole’s jugular. That statement should have triggered the mother of all catfights.

I think Sami’s problem, Leslie, is that deep down she agrees with Nicole. When she first got Sydney back Sami did nothing but whine about how Sydney didn’t “love her” or think of her as Sydney’s mommy. I imagine that fear has never really gone away.

Daniel takes the guard's keys and has him scram. He goes inside and asks Carly why she did that.

Since he was too late to stop the JAM-PLUNGE, what was the point of forcing his way into the isolation ward and exposing himself? TLT

Phillip says, "I know what you're talking about.

Yep, the tried-and-true DOOL formula. One character tries to tell another character something and the tellee “knows” what the teller is talking about without actually hearing the rest of a sentence/statement.

EJ begs to differ. Rafe begs to differ with EJ's begging to differ. EJ begs... you get the idea.

Prevuze sure caught the gist of that conversation perfectly.

"Now they could all die," says Stephanie, "At least that would solve everything."

I was pretty much thinking the same thing. Now, if Stephanie just wanted to go in and join them……

Justin tells them to hang in there. Hey, he came up with that and he doesn't even have a medical degree.

Combined with Dr. Dan's previous medical pep-talk, that was a LOL moment.

The Bo/Det. Hansen picture was great as was the Melanie goes to Freak-out-land prevuism.

Although I saw the show yesterday I knew I’d want my Prevuze in the AM. Love it!

UGH!! I must agree with Jules on this one. I really liked Rafe in the beginning, but now he's wearing on me. Maybe it's because he has no story line other than being Sami's doormat. He sure did get over Ari's death quickly.

And I'm so over the baby daddy drama. Blow up already! Then we can move on to the next kidnapping story. Where's a good old fashioned demon possession when you need one?
