Days of Our Lives

Just a short summary, most folks have seen this show already….so..Carly tries to explain to Daniel why she never told him he was the father of her baby. She tearfully (gmab) recounts the story we have heard many times…but now it is how she was in such a bad place in her life when she went to that conference and met Daniel, both had too much to drink, went to his room, both needed each other (pass the barf bags) and the next morning her guilty conscience had her tell him she was married, so they agreed on the “friends” thing. And besides, she ran into her friend, Rebecca, introduced her to Daniel…and…. (Why do I seem to remember Daniel saying Rebecca was a patient of his, and that is how they met??). By the time Carly discovered she was pregnant, Daniel & Rebecca were planning their wedding, and she just did not want to intrude on that. And of course Lawrence realized he was not the father, his illness had left him sterile. He beat her trying to get her to tell him the name of the father, but she didn’t. She was always not only protecting her baby, but him, too. Yada, yada. Daniel is not a happy camper, not at all, and not sure if he can forgive her. He takes off to check on his daughter.
The Salem PD has managed to haul in Gus, Hope pretends she recognizes him, and has written out a full statement. Bo & Hope want Gus to give them Vivian, or he is spending a lot of time behind bars. He starts to mention Viv going home for her gloves so she..but stops, wanting a lawyer. Bo goes out in the hall, calls Melanie’s guard to make sure he has never left the door. The guard confirms this, but mentions leaving for a minute to help Mrs. Horton. Hope & Bo dash off.
Vivian presses the pillow down on Melanie’s face, she struggles a bit, weakly moving her arm her leg, and then calms down, but Viv lifts the pillow. Melanie takes a breath, flutters her eyes open, then tells Vivian to just kill her, go ahead, she doesn’t know anything any more, so she might as well die. Vivian is taken aback, and then Melanie talks of how horrible Carly was to her, then shoots her, and then says she is her mother. She sobs as she tells of how her father was a gambler, and when he could not pay someone, sent her to the man, how she lied and cheated cuz her father taught her that, and after he died, she continued to do so as she thought that was what one did. Vivian is becoming horrified, as Melanie cries that the man was not even her father and now Carly won’t tell her who he is. Vivian puts the pillow aside, stroking Melanie’s hair, saying enough already. This girl has suffered enough in her short life. She is embracing Melanie as Philip & a doctor burst in, soon followed by Bo & Hope. The doctor says Melanie is stable but very weak, truly needs her rest. Hope has hustled Vivian out of the room. Bo asks if Vivian hurt her, but Melanie is a bit hazy, saying she had a dream about Vivian, at least she thinks it was Vivian, and all she wants to do is sleep. Bo gets a call from Carly, she needs to talk to him. He tells Hope (who realized who it was) that he has to fill Carly in on what happened, better to do it face to face. He takes off, meeting Carly, who cries on his should about Daniel…and how how both he and her daughter hate her now.
Meanwhile, Daniel enters Melanie’s room, she is alone, he just looks at her.
Rafe has called EJ to tell him of the family gathering. He is reluctant, but finally agrees, saying that he wants it to be on the pier….it is where they lost Sydney. Rafe lets Sami know, figures EJ just wants to rub his nose in it… he thinks it all very odd, but Sami figures EJ is just grieving, assuring Rafe she knows he did all he could, but Rafe sadly replies it just wasn’t enough.
EJ has come in to DiMansion, telling Stefano he came to get Johnny. Stefano knows there is to be a family gathering, EJ lets him know he is not invited. Stefano tells him to be wary of Hernandez…. Kate \goes to get Johnny, EJ exchanges a few unpleasantries with his father, doing his usual “you are dead to me, I am taking Johnny and going away for a while” speech. Kate returns with Johnny, EJ picks him up, leaves. Kate knows Stefano did not tell EJ of Rafe’s questions. Nope, and he won’t ever. If Senor Hernandez is investigating Elvis, fine, let Mr. FBI take EJ down. Good!
Vivian return to the Kmansion, is about to open the door, when Lawrence appears, scolding her for not killing Melanie. Vivian protests the girl has been thru enough in her short life, is an innocent girl….. but Lawrence will have none of that. Vivian promised to make Carly suffer, Viv has to go back and finish what she started. Vivian simple says “Good-bye Lawrence”, and his apparition fades away. She enters the door. Victor comments about the very long walk for a senior citizen. LOL. She says it was invigorating, cleared her head, he was right, Philip loves Melanie, she is a sweet girl, and Carly will be going to prison, she will be suffering there.
Down on the pier, Rafe, Sami, Will & Allie are wondering what is keeping EJ, when there he is, Johnny in his arms, telling them he is not ready for this gathering, and wants to cancel it. (who the heck does he think he is?). He tells Will to take Allie, Rafe to take Johnny back to the car, he wants to talk to Samantha alone. Rafe comments Sami will tell him anyway, EJ insists it is private. They all leave, Sami protests that the twins have to be told, EJ thinks later will be fine, she says they are asking now, she knows they are all sad, etc. EJ pretends he is leaving, Sami knows something is going on, insists he tell her, and he finally says he got another letter, pulls it out, tells Sami he thinks Sydney is still alive.
