Days of Our Lives

The word to describe today.....intense! Wow. Justin talks with Rafe, admits he made a huge mistake which is how Chad got away. Tells of recognizing the fishing lure when at DiMansion, and should not have blurted it out. Stefano warned Chad, which is how he got away before Rafe's men got to that cabin. Justin further admits he has been overly eager, went to see Abe to offer resignation, Abe refused to accept it. Rafe says they both want the same thing, the killer off the streets, and an airtight case against him. Justin will back off, let Rafe do his job, they shake hands.
Abby is talking to JJ, to tells her his part in putting Clyde into police custody, how he threatened Paige, mom, and you Abby. Gabi has arrived, looking for Rafe, Lani says he isn't there. She joins Abby & JJ, but Abby texts Ben, with no answer, then leaves.
Adrienne sits in the square, toying with an envelope, Lucas arrives. These are her test results, she has not gotten the courage to open it. Lucas gives her a pep talk, she may not have the gene, if she does, doesn't mean cancer, and even so, tons of things, etc. Adrienne feels much better, decides to open it, starts, but slips it into her purse when she spies Justin coming. Lucas pretends they were talking of Sonny, thanks Adrienne & leaves. Justin joins her, is not going to start up, they go off together, he asks what she has been doing. Volunteer work. He is sorry he has not kept up with her life. It is all awkward. Adrienne asks him to look her in the eye, tell her he doesn't ever think of wanting, at times, to be free to go where he wants, be with whoever he wants. Justin just looks at her, says "sometimes". He cannot explain it, doesn't know what it is. So, that is it.
Later, Justin is in a bar, Lucas enters, Justin finishes his drink, warns Lucas "not to hurt her", and leaves. In her room, Adrienne opens the envelope, reads it, and just looks ahead.
In the park, Hope is on the phone with Roman, shocked at what he is telling her, Aiden comes up. Hope is upset, Aiden lied to her, and this all boils down to Roman telling Hope about the info from Aiden about Clyde, that enabled them to arrest him. Aiden is apologizing to her all over the place, tells of how Clyde made these threats against her & the kids, and he just wanted to protect them. He professes his love, & eventually, they kiss. Later, he meets up with some thug, gives him a key, and something to turn off the alarm system. Evidently the guy is to break into DiMansion, and find if Chad is there and where. Aiden will give him 10% of the $100,000 reward, but the guy says why not all, I can turn Chad in myself. Aiden warns him that he then would not live to spend a dime of it.
JJ & Gabi are walking in the square, making a lot of small talk, JJ stops in front of the place where Paige used to work. They go sit on a bench, Gabi talks of Ari, how upset Gabi was when she learned she was pregnant, but how Ari is her heart. She assures JJ that things will get better, look brighter. She has to go pick Ari up from the sitter, has to leave.
Rafe has been checking and thinks Chad is on the run, has gotten word the DiMera jet took off for somewhere in Europe. But...doesn't mean Chad is on it.
At Ben's apt., Will smiles, greets Ben as he closes the door, apologizing for
knocking over the trash basket, when Ben comments that Will found his tie. Will thinks it pretty snazzy, why throw it away. Ben laughs, says he had it in case he ever wanted to be an adult, but actually thinks it ugly. He is holding the tie now, but offers it to Will if he thinks it so nice. Nope, not since it was in the trash. They chat a bit, Abby, the cable guy who has not shown up, and then of Clyde. Ben begins defending Clyde, Will comments about Clyde's mistreatment of family when Ben was young, but Ben starts getting agitated, the tie in his hands. As he talks of Clyde changing him, not being guilty, he is wrapping the tie around both hands, Will noticing. Ben is blaming Chad for something, Will getting concerned, he says "Ben".
At that point, Ben unwraps the tie, putting it aside, and his phone is buzzing (a text??). Will asks if Ben is o.k. does he want to go somewhere and talk. Will is getting nervous over the phone buzzing, Ben ignoring it. Will has to leave, Ben says no, actually holding the door shut. The phone buzzes again, Ben is very angry, throws the phone against the wall, we hear glass breaking, as he exclaims why dont' they leave me alone". (The lighting is fantastic with that neon glow in the window going on and off). Will seizes his chance and tries to get out the door, but Ben slams it shut, starts talking of Will thinking he is so smart. Will denies this, Ben goes on, Will is protesting about them being friends, Ben asked him to be his best man, but Ben finally grabs Will, throws him against the frig, I think, knocking him out. He takes the tie, begins to strangle a protesting Will, who struggles, but then goes limp, eyes wide open. Ben seems upset, pounds against something, but closes Will's eyes. He then, gets a laundry bag, something large, slips it over Will's body, shoves Will's computer and files in it, pulls the rope to close the top, and knots it. This is all in the dark, more or less.
Next, he is in Will's apt., dragging his body to the side of the sofa, then wrapping the red tie around Will's neck. Ben starts knocking over things on table, trashing the place, to look like a struggle. He empties the big brown envelope on the floor near Will's head, smashes a few things. Goes out in the hall, locking the door, then breaking it open.
Abby comes back home, no Ben. She calls him.
He is back in the apartment when he gets the call from Abby, wondering where he is. He claims he went out for a run, will be home in a bit. He comes home, Abby has candles lit, wanted to surprise him. He is happy to see her, cannot imagine how he existed without her before, and doesn't ever want to do so again. Kissing, He picks her up.
Gabi comes home, the door is ajar, she cautiously pushes it, turning on the light, sees Will on the floor, and screams.

Today Guy Wilson really did a great job. And Robert Scott? The guy who plays Ben...sooooo creepy and scary!
I really couldn't believe that he killed Will right there in his apartment! Abby could have come home anytime! I thought we'd see him go after Will later. Maybe Will would say something to someone, maybe Abby, that Ben was acting weird then Ben would kill. It is interesting development. Didn't expect it to be Will .
