35 minutes - an explanation that Cat 1 is the mother; Cat 2 is who we were told was Abigail. If you just want to see Clyde get shot, it’s the last 4 seconds of the show; move the slider to 34:24. We also have a new shirtless day winner.

Daytime in Salem. Marlena is at the hospital talking on the phone with someone, she's very happy, John wishes them a happy holiday season too. We will catch up soon. As she finishes the conversation with phone person, Leo interrupts with his current mental health emergency. Which differs from his previous mental health issues. Additionally, he has problems with work. The first problem involves a guy.

Today is Javi’s day to be without a shirt. He is working from home today, answering a phone that never stops ringing, Gabi Hernadez’s office, please hold. Someone asks for Ms. DiMera, and won’t give up. Caller insists on knowing where Ms. DiMera is. Javi tells caller that she went with her ex-boyfriend to Vancouver to pose as her dead frenemy to find some crazy escaped convict.

Daytime in Vancouver - replay of Gabi finding a cockroach and the password finding for Clyde's computer (It's "Nancy"). Gabi is wearing some impressive heels. Clyde speaks about sudden movements. He has figured out that JJ is pretending to be Chad.

Reply of Chad acting brave with a gun to Cat 2’s head. Cat 1 enters the room. Cat 2 tells Cat 1 to put the gun down, Cat 2 tries to explain why she looks different (plastic surgery after the accident). Clyde told Cat 1 that the woman (Cat 2) would lie to her.

Clyde is humbled that Mr. and Mrs. Chad DiMera would come to visit little ol' him. Clyde makes threats. JJ makes macho remarks.

Javi is telling the person to please understand he is new at this job. Ms. DiMera is out trying to find some homicidal hick. Caller hangs up. Knock on door, it’s Kerry.

Marlena and Leo talk love life, and it all involves Kerry and Javi sparking. Forever and ever.

Kerry had fun on his date last night. The phone is ringing and ringing. Javi picks up and drops the phone. These two fun loving kids make a date for right now!

Brady is working yet again in the town square; they must be redoing his office at Titan. He wants to arrange a time to pick up Rachel. Kristen has made plans, Brady missed Rachel’s recital. He has tickets to the Nutcracker but Kristen has already taken Rachel to see the show, it’s a traditional thing. Ava comes into the picture. She says this is all my fault.

Chad tries to convince Cat 1 that Cat 2 is really her daughter. Cat 2’s surgery changed everything. Cat 1 has to do everything Clyde says.

Clyde’s plan is to kill JJ and Gabi because he found two people tossing his place. The police will take his word for it. Gabi wonders how Clyde will explain his escape from prison? Clyde trashes the boys in blue in the states and the Dudley Do Rights, who wear red in the Great White North. JJ continues to make threats and demands to know what Clyde did with his sister’s body?

Brady wonders why it’s Ava’s fault? Ava explains how she told Kristen that Brady has no plans to ever get back with her. A long conversation about co-parenting. Christmas music plays loudly in the background, it’s a nice jazzy saxophone.

Javi and Kerry discuss favorite female musical artists. Leo comes in.

More threats with Gabi, JJ and Clyde. JJ pulls his weapon.

Cat 2 wants to know what Clyde told Cat 1? Clyde told her the truth, he is her friend. Cat 2 gets shoved out of the way, Chad rushes Cat 1 and off-screen a gun goes off, Cat 2 screams.

Clyde tells JJ to put the gun down, he wouldn’t want to put his partner in a coma like he did that poor Theo Carver. Clyde tells JJ to put the gun down again. Even if he shoots Clyde, the reflexes will make Clyde’s finger pull the trigger. JJ puts the gun down and kicks it towards Clyde. While Clyde bends over to pick up the gun, JJ pulls his phone out of his pocket and messages Chad. (guess this is a reason to not lock your phone or maybe the younger generation is just faster at pushing the keys without looking than I am.)

Chad has tied up Cat 1 while Cat 2 can’t believe what’s happened to Cat 1. Cat 2 can’t believe Cat 1 tried to shoot her. Cat 2 won’t leave her mother here. Chad gives Cat 2 a gun and leaves.

Ava is playing with a lunch wrap, as Brady plays with fruit cocktail. They discuss how unhinged Kristen is. Brady thinks that he and Ava would have fun if they are together.

Leo hangs up on Rafe, and interrupts the Kerry and Javi date. Javi didn’t want to make the same mistake with Kerry that he made with Leo so no, Javi hasn’t slept with Kerry, yet.

Cat 2 tries to talk to Cat 1. But Mom doesn’t believe a word coming out of Cat 2’s mouth. Cat 1 called Cat 2 Kitty Cat when she was little, and Cat 2 goes into an entire story about singing Kitty Cat and freckles. Now Cat 1 seems to see her daughter in the new and improved Cat 2. This makes Cat 2 happy. Cat 1 wants to be untied so she can hug her baby girl.

More thrilling Brady and Ava and Kristen chat. More toying and playing with food and words. Ava thinks that perhaps at some point they might move beyond friendship. Little Brady would like to focus on perhaps learning more about Ava.

Javi calls Leo out on being a nosy and interrupting. Leo tells Javi that his shrink told him how to proceed. This is a weird Leo conversation. Kerry tells Leo that he has run B/S into the ground.

Cat 2 unties Cat 1, they hug and Cat 1 takes the gun and pulls it on Cat 2. Cat 1 leaves. Cat 2 is now alone.

Clyde now has two hostages, so he only needs 1. He now thinks it’s cruel to Jack and Jennifer to take the life of both their children. This entire time Gabi has been standing quietly next to Clyde with daggers on her feet yet she does nothing. Chad arrives and knocks Clyde out.

Brady invites Ava to see the Nutcracker, because he has tickets. Kristen bashing continues. Ava agrees.

Kerry trash talks Lady Whistleblower and B/S. Kerry and Javi go back to who is the better singer conversations.

Clyde isn’t tied up, just put into a chair. Chad makes idle threats to Clyde. Cat 2 tries to call Chad but he doesn’t pick up. More threats. Demands to know about Abigail’s body. Just as Clyde goes to tell Chad where Abigail is, he is shot by Cat 1.
 
Well done, Robin!

Appreciate the Cat 1 and Cat 2 references.

I am glad I was wrong thinking that once Cat 1 was untied, she was going to try to shoot Cat 2.

Even though I want Clyde dead, that would mean Abby's body will never be found. We will find out soon if he survives?

Despite the animosity now, I do think Javi will realize that Kerry does not have the personality of Leo and will get bored. So today was Javi's shirtless day. Who's next?

I liked the Brady/Ava scenes. If they get together in a romantic way, their dynamic will change, and they won't be so nice to each other. Sad, but true.

How lousy of Kristen to do that to Brady with The Nutcracker tickets. But we are not surprised.

Will Marlena charge Leo for their "session" in the middle of the room at the hospital?
 
Who is it at Days who insists the guys take turns being shirtless. Do they realize it is winter, mid-December? And that having the men take turns each day is asinine? Maybe they decided that instead of being located in the midwest.......Salem is actually out in CA, or Texas, Louisiana, Floriday, Mississippi?????
 
Apparently all Cat can say is never mind how I look, I am so and so. I really thought she was working with Clyde. Glad she wasn't. I like the actress so I hope she can stick around. Glad he's dead (hopefully) but he didn't tell them about Abigail which means they can still bring her back from the dead. They'll probably bring Clyde back too, if he's dead.

I like Brady. I wish he could be with a woman and be happy and never see Kristen again. I like Ava too, so I'm ok with that pairing.
 
Thanks for the summary. This was a much better episode than the last few!

I hope somehow Clyde tells JJ and Chad the truth about Abigail's body, then dies. We've had enough of him over the years. It needs to end now, along with this storyline.

Will Kerry be Lady Whistleblower 2.0? Obviously Javi and Leo are being set up to be a long-term couple. Which I wouldn't necessarily mind.

Love the idea of Ava with Brady. I remember when the actress played Taylor Walker back in '11, and a few weeks before the character left town, she and Brady got drunk and kissed as Nicole walked in. Back then, I thought they had chemistry. I know it's a different character now but I like the idea of it.
 
Ding dong, Clyde’s been shot. Which old Clyde? The creepy Clyde. Of course he survives. The only question is whether goes into a coma, and if so, for how long?

Are they ever. Neither one of them is worth Leo’s time.

I spent four years in a men’s dorm back in college and nobody walked around shirtless, including varsity football players who had physiques akin to Xander’s.

On other subjects, the writers don’t seem to understand the concept of wretched excess. Four guns pointed at four different people was a little much. Speaking of guns, Stefano would have been proud that Chad, a member of La Famiglia, was the one the shoot down Clyde. Finally, before Brady marches happily into the sunset with Ava, he should ask her: “What were you thinking when you brought down the Black jet?”
 
Thanks, robin.

I figure it's Re-Ron who wants the guys take turns not wearing shirts.

Who was Javi talking to on the phone when he said Gabi was off in Canada going after a homicidal hick?

What did Clyde do to Cat's mom to have her act that way? It doesn't matter now, does it?

Clyde was going to tell Chad about Abigail. What was he going to tell him? Abby's alive, where her body is?
Hopefully, there is a clue on his laptop.

The big question is who was Marlena talking to when she told the person whose dad was having 90th birthday and
John gives her his best. Could it be Neil Curtis? Joseph Gallison is still alive and he'll be 90 next year. Some thought
it could be Don since Jed Allen would be 90 next year if he was still alive. If it's Neil, will he come to Salem?
 
I wondered who Marlena was talking to, too.

Sarah and Maggie have talked about Neil Curtis and it's always in the past tense, so the character appears to be dead.

I guess she could've been talking to someone associated with Don Craig, although Jed Allen died in 2019, so that would've been a weird line.

I'm wondering if it was just some inside thing for maybe a family member of one of the writers. I think if it was referring to a Salemite, she'd have mentioned a name that we'd have recognized.

I was thinking that the other day when someone was talking about how the characters were dressed. Their outfits wouldn't be unusual in Texas. It was in the 40s this past Saturday, but back into the 60s the next day. Even the shirtless scenes would make sense if the guys were in Texas and didn't have good air conditioning.
