Here's a brief rundown of Fake Rafe.

The whole point of Fake Rafe was to break up Sami and Rafe because Johnny adored Rafe, which EJ obviously hated. He figured if Rafe was gone, then Johnny would love him (EJ) more. Remember how much little Johnny loved Rafe, and the little FBI jacket Rafe gave him? Also remember that EJ put Arnold into Sami's bed to essentially rape her. He told Stefano and they literally laughed about it.

At first, they kept Rafe locked in a jail cell in the DiMansion basement. Then they wiped his memory, and shipped him to a sanitarium, with the eventual plan to kill him. He escaped and made his way back to Salem where he regained his memory at some point. I think he had flashes of memory, then when he saw Sami, all of his memories came flooding back.

Fake Rafe also terrorized little Allie. At one point, Stefano was going to have Allie kidnapped and removed from Salem. EJ actually had a bit of heart and told Kate (on the down low) to have Lucas come and take Allie to Hong Kong with him, so Stefano couldn't have her kidnapped. Once Fake Rafe was arrested and then killed, Allie came home to Salem. Sami and Rafe had to sit down and explain to her about the two Rafes and how the bad man who was pretending to be Rafe was gone forever and could never hurt her again.

Hey Allie, guess what??? :rolleyes:

Oh, and Arnold caused the death of Nicole's mother, Fay Walker. She overheard EJ, Stefano and Fake Rafe discussing their plan and tried to run upstairs to tell Nicole. Fake Rafe went after her, they struggled on the steps in the DiMansion, then he threw her down the staircase. She was clinging to life and taken to the hospital. Fay tried to tell Nicole and Taylor, but was too weak, all she managed to say was that EJ had a secret. Later, Fake Rafe slipped into her hospital room, smothered her with a pillow and killed her.

It was after the truth about Fake Rafe came out that Sami basically blackmailed EJ into signing over full custody of Johnny and Sydney to her.
 
Here's the summary of the day Stefano was going to have Allie kidnapped and removed from Salem, which EJ ultimately didn't agree with. So he told Kate to have Lucas bring Allie to Hong Kong, immediately.

Rafe 1 is asleep on his cot, dreaming of Rafe 2 beating him up (like we need to see that again!) as Stefano pounds and shakes the cell bars to wake him up. Stefano has heard of Rafe 1’s little adventure yesterday. Rafe replies he just needed some air. Stefano remarks it is too bad little Allie is going to have to pay, chuckling as Rafe begs him to leave Allie alone, but Stefano departs.

Over at the hospital, Sami is watching over Johnny with Lexie, wondering why EJ is not there, seeing as Johnny has had the surgery. But EJ is hooking up with Rafe 2 in the...
 
Here's the summary of when EJ and Stefano laughed about Arnold being in Samantha's bed:

If ever I was hospitalized with something minor, let alone something major, the last person I would want to see anywhere near me is Nurse Melanie. Of all the inept….Daniel is on the phone with Melanie who tells him they took Jennifer’s heart. She is dead. Carly’s face drops, but Daniel asks Melanie if she checked Jen’s vitals. No, but oh, look, she is hooked up to machines that seem to be recording vitals, so she is still alive. Carly is relieved, Daniel gets the heart in the cooler and is on his way. Meanwhile, the prisoner nurse is...

And here's the summary of the first time he raped her:

Replay of Philip coming into the Pub, and telling his mother to back off. Like Kate would listen to him for a second. Lol. She gets on her high horse, protesting that Chloe is not a fit mother, is falling apart, cannot care for Parker, not like Melanie can. Philip continues to tell her to back off, she continues to go forward. He insists he is not a victim here, that he is responsible for everything that happened, even manages to throw in a crack about how Kate tried previously to kill Chloe. Kate wants him to do his best to make up with...
 
When going through the old summaries, I had forgotten that Arnold also used the name Javier Morales. When he hooked up with a girl named Alicia at the Cheatin' Heart, he told her his name was Javier. That's what they (Bo/Hope/Salem PD) thought was his real name until a cop named McCarthy managed to figure out his real name was Arnold Feniger.

The girl who played Alicia (Arnold's one night stand) came back in 2020 to play Zoey Burge, who was Orpheus' daughter.

Also, when he was trying to make Sami mad and humiliate her in public, he hit on Stephanie one time. Sami was more upset about how uncomfortable he made Stephanie. (back in 2010/2011, Sami actually cared about her family members)

Rafe was in a car accident that was sort of Sami's fault. She went off half-cocked about something with EJ, and Rafe went after her. He swerved to avoid a deer, crashed into a tree, and was taken to the hospital. While he was at the hospital, Stefano had his flunkies sedate him, slip him out of the hospital and put Arnold into the hospital bed (Stefano had been planning the switcheroo before Rafe's car accident anyway). All of "Rafe's" odd behavior kept getting chalked up to his head injury from the accident.
 
Cannot stand fake Rafe. I just don't know why they always have to have doubles. It's stupid!!!
