Fishin' In The Wrong Stream

If I were Chad my New Year's resolution would be to get as far away from Abigail as my bloated DiMera bank account would take me. #DAYS

 

Abby: "I'm trying to fix my marriage?" Gabi: "Oh, you mean the one you broke?" #DAYS

 

Having a rockin' New Years Eve party in the pub is kind of like watching the Cubs win the World Series in the Toledo Mud Hen's Stadium #DAYS

 

Lani joins Paul and Derrick for New Year's Eve.  Honey, you're fishin' in the wrong stream. #DAYS

 

 

Abby's Statue

 

The Agreement

Sunday is her day of rest.

Abby Normal

 

Panting

Jennifer insists things will be OK.  The last time things were OK in Salem two baby dinosaurs were seen playing in a meadow. #DAYS

 

Gabi: "Abigail was my best friend." That's probably what drove Gabi to became a cold-blooded murderer. #DAYS

 

It's not the chemotherapy that's nauseating Adrienne — It's Lucas and Justin panting after her. #DAYS

The Phoenix Will Rise Again

They want to exhume Stefano's body. The Phoenix will rise again... kind of. #DAYS

 

Joey: "If I could go through this pregnancy I would." Jade: "No you wouldn't." I have a feeling Jade wins that one. #DAYS

 

Joey threatens Hal: "Get away from Jade or I'll smash your fist with my face." #DAYS

Stefano Is Dead... Uh... I Mean,,, Alive

 

Jimmy Hoffa and Amelia Earhart

If Nicole says "This baby needs her mother" one more time I'm gonna scream. #DAYS

 

It's true. Stefano is alive. I saw him myself... walking down the street with Jimmy Hoffa and Amelia Earhart. #DAYS

 

Once all this sorts itself out Nicole and Theresa can co-author a book: "How To Have A Kid Without The Inconvenience Of Childbirth." #DAYS

 

Shane: "If Stefano is alive..." Marlena: "That's a nightmare come true." No, it's a cheesy writer's ploy come true. #DAYS

Room Temperature

Patch wishes he could go back in time and be there for his kids. Even the times when he was dead? #DAYS

 

Ciara wonders how she, Claire or Joey would know what it's like to be pregnant. Hey, this is #DAYS — Anything is possible.

 

Coco and Sheila beat up on Annabelle. Super Hero Hope trips over her cape coming to the rescue. #DAYS

 

Hope cries out, "Chillie? Chillie? Chillie?" Turns out she's not just chilly, she's room temperature. #DAYS

Don We Now Our Gay Apparel

Fa la la la la la la la!

The Ghost Of Christmas Past

Steve's patch is so Christmassy. #DAYS

 

Chad to Abby: "Are you crazy?" Is the Pope... Does a one-legged duck... Does a bear... #DAYS

 

Chad to Abby: "Oh, I get it — you're the Ghost of Christmas Past." #DAYS

Man In Black vs. Woman In Black

 

His Inner Humphrey Bogart

Abby to Jennifer: "I need you to trust me." Oh, yeah, because you've been so trustworthy in the past. #DAYS

 

Abby wants trust. André wants trust. I agree — they both should be trussed. #DAYS

 

Andre, "Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow.  But soon you'll regret this." Andre, channeling his inner Humphrey Bogart. Who knew? #DAYS

 

Jennifer to Abigail: "You're leaving tonight of all nights."  Maybe she couldn't face the upcoming Horton ornament ceremony.  #DAYS

 

Chad to Gabi: "You've seen me with my shirt off before." Vegas odds are a zillion to one this won't be the last time, either. #DAYS

 

The Horton tree ceremony: Where all the people have a bulb and where all the bulbs are dim. #DAYS

All They Want For Christmas...

 

Speaking of Bastards

Joey hopes Jade isn't thinking what he thinks she's thinking.  Probably not. That would require thinking by both of them. #DAYS

 

Phillip wants Victor to stand up for him.  Maybe Phillip can't stand up for himself because his prosthetic leg got bent in the fight with Deimos. #DAYS

 

Victor harangues about Chloe's bastard child. Speaking of bastards, I wonder if Victor misses Bo. #DAYS

Carpe Gabi

Phillip: "My mind is a blank." Thank God, he's fully recovered. #DAYS

 

They made such a big deal about Nicole heading out in a snowstorm I hope they've got the Salem Hospital bed ready for her. #DAYS

 

Chad says he feels "in the moment." Well, come on, pal… carpe diem. Or to be more accurate: carpe Gabi. #DAYS

So Close, Yet So Far

 

Santa's Naughty List

Gabi and JJ... definitely will be on Santa's "Naughty List."

Outlaws Anonymous

Ortiz: "I don't think Steve Jobs' ghost could fix that computer." Steve Jobs sure wouldn't be the 1st to come back from the dead on #DAYS

 

Dario, Gabi and Rafe at the same table.  Must be a meeting of Outlaws Anonymous. #DAYS

 

Rafe wants Gabi to look at his present for Mami: "I'm just not good at this kind of stuff." Or any other kind of stuff for that mater. #DAYS

1.985 Inches

Jade: "I'll raise my baby on my own."  And, by golly, she will… until the first time it gets her up at 2AM, then she'll reconsider. #DAYS

 

Adrienne: "Five centimeters is like an inch." For the record five centimeters is about two inches. 1.985 inches to be exact.  #DAYS

 

Jade to Joey: "DON'T TOUCH ME." If she had told him that earlier they wouldn't be in this mess. #DAYS

Bringing In The Sheaves

Sonny can't get a computer connection today. OMG, NO! He'll miss all the Prevuze snark. #DAYS

 

Hernandez criminals: Rafe, Dario, Eduardo, Gabi. Hernandez non-criminals: Arianna… but probably only because she's dead. #DAYS

 

Maggie's in her element. She's reaping so much gossip material from Nicole she might break into a chorus of "Bringing in the Sheaves." #DAYS

Schrödinger's Cat

Nicole: "Are you alive?" Daniel: "Yes and no." Nicole: "How is that possible?" Daniel: "Have you ever heard of Schrödinger's cat? #DAYS

 

#DOOL scripts are magical, aren't they? And by 'magic' I'm referring to the ability to turn bloodthirsty Hope into Mother Theresa. #DAYS

 

Chad: "When my life is on track, something knocks me off it." To keep that metaphor alive, Chad, there's a train wreck headed your way. #DAYS

JJ Gets A Lecture

 

Remembering The Iconic Stefano DiMera

 

John and Lorena Bobbitt

Apparently in Gabi's mind "giving JJ another chance" entails spending a lot of time with Chad. #DAYS

 

Kate and Eduardo: It has the potential of being the greatest love story since John and Lorena Bobbitt. #DAYS

 

Eduardo says the world is a better place with Kate in it. The world must be in worse shape than I thought. #DAYS

Jade's Arrangement

 

A Technicality

 

Stefano's Grave

Julie hates to leave Hope in prison, "It's so cold and dirty…" Sounds just like Stefano's grave. #DAYS

 

Nicole wails, "Daniel was so real." He was… for a fictional character, that is. #DAYS

 

Gabi says if she wants a successful business she needs more than one client. Well, award the woman an MBA degree. #DAYS

 

Gabi's not one of those short-attention-span people who can be distracted by a shiny object.  With her it takes a purse. #DAYS

Jade's Priorities

 

The Reunion

 

Juvenile, Pathetic and Idiotic

Poor Adrienne has turned into Joe Btfsplk — the L'il Abner character who walked around with a permanent rain cloud overhead. #DAYS

 

Sonny claims his plan was juvenile, pathetic and idiotic. As plans go in Salem that's pretty much par for the course. #DAYS

 

Nancy wonders if Nicole/Deimos is a casual fling. In Salem if it moves from the couch to the bedroom it has to be true love. #DAYS

Nuttier Than A Stuckey's Pecan Log

Chad doesn't want to go on a blind date so he asks Gabi. How conveeeeeenient… and fabricated. #DAYS

 

In case you haven't been paying attention, Abigail is nuttier than a Stuckey's Pecan Log. #DAYS

 

In today's episode, the role of the loafing, mooching, good-for-nothing visitor from hell will be played by Jade. #DAYS

Rafe's Plan

 

The Luddite Category

Victor to Ciara: "Your mother's sentencing was a travesty." Yeah, all she did was murder a guy in cold blood. #DAYS

 

Hattie says her trouble started when, "I met this guy." Guys: Trouble for women since Adam met Eve. #DAYS

 

Theo invites Valerie to go Christmas Tree shopping. They must need someone to carry the tree home and set it up.  #DAYS

 

If you think knowing how to do a factory reset makes someone a "technical wizard" you fall into the "Luddite" category. #DAYS

Leather vs. Chrome

 

Thomas' Prayer

 

Testosterone Filled Events

Marlena doesn't want any more "testosterone filled events." Maybe that's why John left town. #DAYS

 

Marlena tells Kayla she had to break up the fight between Justin and Lucas.  And I'll never forgive her for that. #DAYS

Wackoness

Laura is wacko. Abigail is wacko. It's a scientific fact that wackoness skips a generation… unless that generation is Jennifer. #DAYS

 

Laura to Jennifer: "Try to stay calm." Well, that had the same effect as telling a Category 5 hurricane to stay calm. #DAYS

 

Abigail: "Death is usually permanent." HA! She was just about the last person in town who hadn't come back from the dead. #DAYS

Adrienne Chooses
