A Pillar of Strength

Marlena; "During times like this, I'm a pillar of strength." And humble,
too. #DAYS

Phillip: "You have a way of insinuating yourself into other people's
business." Kate puts the sin in insinuating. #DAYS

Melodrama

Gwen: "But, Jake, we love each other." Apparently Jake has enough love
to pass around. #DAYS

This Hope/Ben melodrama is anything but mellow. #DAYS

Chad tells Gwen she can stay in the DiMera mansion. What could go wrong?
#DAYS

Damn the Torpedoes... and the Girlfriend

Gabi and Jake kiss. Jake: "I have a girlfriend. We can't do this." Damn
the torpedoes… and the girlfriend. They do it. #DAYS

Eduardo: "We have to get Gabi and get her out of town now." She's busy.
#DAYS

Programmed, not programmed, on meds, off meds, either way, Ben needs to
walk around with a Surgeon's General warning tattooed on his forehead. #DAYS

S-U-C-K-I-N-G FACE

Gabi and Jake, sittin' in a tree, s-u-c-k-i-n-g face. It doesn't rhyme,
but it's accurate. #DAYS

Rafe: "What are you doing here?" Eduardo: "I had to come back because
Longmier isn't on the air any more." #InsideJoke #DAYS

I know a guy in Kansas City. If you ask someone from KC what is the best
barbecue joint there, you will start the biggest argument you've ever
heard. #DAYS

A Little Chat

Sami wants to have a "little chat" with Justin. Justin would be better
off walking through a COVID-19 ward and kissing every patient. #DAYS

I hope the #DOOL writers are taking advantage of the pandemic break to
come up with some original plots not involving hostages, kidnapping,
coming back from the dead and a host of other things. #DAYS

Nicole: "Kids are everything to me. Holly is the center of my world. I
want her with us." So where the hell is she? #DAYS

The Sleep Tight Motel

Rafe discovers Eve is a the "Sleep Tight Motel." A four-star
accommodation experience in Salem, no doubt. #DAYS

For the nit-pickers in the crowd. Paige's grave stone says September 8,
2015, so we can't have just had the anniversary of her death, as claimed
on the show. Reason is probably because they missed the Olympic hiatus.
#DAYS

Nicole and Grandma Sami (Grami) go toe-to-toe. I was all set for a
heavyweight bout until Eric ruined things and broke it up. #DAYS

Dressed To Kill

Rafe: "I can't comment on an open investigation." Proceeds to comment on
an open investigation. #DAYS

Vincent to Eve: "You're dressed for a funeral." Perhaps you could say
she's dressed to kill. #DAYS

Here's a recap of what the closed captions said during Kayla, Jennifer
and Hope's conversation: "Cluck-cluck-cluck; cluckity-cluck;
cluck-cluck." #DAYS

Women... They're All The Same!

Pegleg returns. #DAYS

Hope wonders why Rafe was looking at her that way. Look, just because
he's not a Salem doctor doesn't mean he can't give the look of death. #DAYS

I've got a hula hoop smaller than Ciara's earrings. #DAYS

Hope gets Rafe to remove his shirt and then hands him a beer. Gets him
undressed and then tries to ply him with alcohol. Women… they're all the
same! #DAYS

His Belle Brady Sex Doll

John has a stroke as Sami has a cow. #DAYS

Sarah: "I'd like to be with Xander when he gets his good news, but my
shift doesn't end forever." So, just a thought but in that case you
might want to get back to work? #DAYS

Phillip's prosthetic leg seems very flexible. Maybe it's made out of the
same material as his Belle Brady sex doll. #DAYS

Fifty Shades of Grayscale

One sext from Xander and Sarah heads home for what one might call a
'nooner.' #DAYS

Xander: "This has been the most amazing 24-hours of my life." He kisses
Sarah. Things heat up. Make that 24½ hours. #DAYS

Sami says she wants to bring the baby to Marlena's house. Yeah, every
great-grandmother wants a kid to raise. #DAYS

Some technical information: that Sarah-Xander flashback was broadcast in
50 shades of grayscale. #DAYS

Nicole: "YOU GOT A RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST US? YOU CRAZY..." Sami
slams the door. Nicole the diplomat strikes again. #DAYS

Thank god Lani wasn't going into premature labor. Now Sarah can get back
to sexting. #DAYS

A Re;emt;ess Kind of Agony

Will: "What I did was so stupid." I wouldn't go that far, Will. Your
beard doesn't look that bad. #DAYS

Nicole: "Maybe we should adopt a brother or sister for Holly." Great
idea. I'm sure Holly gets lonely spending all that time with a
babysitter. #DAYS

The new Claire almost looks as old as her mom. This is a soap technique
known as Super-SORASing. #DAYS

Eve: "This is a relentless, never-ending kind of agony." I'm confused.
Which #DOOL storyline is she talking about?" #DAYS

Rafe: "I could always use a first-rate detective." But hope would do
until he finds one. #DAYS

Discounted Its Line of Bras

In case you're wondering why Gabi is wearing that outfit, it's because
Gabi Chic has discontinued its line of bras. #DAYS

Gabi and Jake lay into each other like the Hatfields vs. the McCoys. Can
their steamy bedroom scene be far away? #DAYS

I thought for a minute Ben was going to bite Ciara's ear off. Who does
he think he is, Mike Tyson? #DAYS

Kate: "I want a raise." Abe: "I could look into my discretionary fund."
FYI, "Discretionary" is a diplomatic term for "Slush." #DAYS

A Cup of STFU

If Ben's hands around Ciara's throat were as tight as her slacks, that
would strangle her for sure. #DAYS

Eric: "We're going for coffee." Nicole: "Does anyone want anything?" How
about a cup of STFU about the baby mess? #DAYS

Topless

Lani: "I felt a weird twinge." Eli: "Is it the baby?" Of course it's the
baby. #DAYS

Jake walks I on Gabi wrapped in a towel. I'm sure you've already
noticed, they're both pretty much topless. #DAYS

Roman bangs on the door and interrupts Steve and Kayla's intimate
moment. Only the deaf get to have sex in Salem. #DAYS

Gwen: "If anyone's whore it's Gabi. I've seen what effect she has on
men." Actually they could call both Gwen and Gabi "fishermen." They both
really know how to reel 'em in. #DAYS

Crocodile Tears

After today's experience with Bonnie, Justin will be eating lunches in
back corners of dark bars where no one can find him. #DAYS

Listening to Sonny and Allie talk, Will looks like some guy standing at
the top of a gallows. #DAYS

Bonnie cries crocodile tears. Or, more accurately,
crock-o-something-else tears. #DAYS

A Firm Grasp of the Obvious

Hope: "I think our luck is about to change." That could mean going from
bad to worse. #DAYS

Chloe thinks bombing a church at a wedding and kidnapping the groom is
evil. As usual, she has a firm grasp of the obvious. #DAYSA

Helicopter Mom of the Year

Just and observation from that first scene: Ben's totally nekkid and
Ciara is fully dressed after a night of "single mindedness." #DAYS

Sami to Belle: "If you don't let Claire go she'll just push you away."
Great advice from the helicopter mom of the year. #DAYS

Eve's torture chamber looks just like the one in my basemen… uh, never
mind. #DAYS
