Sleeping with a Killer!

Friday, October 24 2008
Melanie's attempts to seduce Philip are thwarted, Sami goes into the witness protection program and Chelsea finds out Daniel and Kate are still together!


Bo goes to the pub for a beer. Max gives him attitude and Bo tells him he is just looking for the truth about Melanie. He's trying to clear Ma of a murder charge, but Max says he's all Melanie has. Stephanie shows up and tells them that it's what Melanie wants him to think! Stephanie trashes Melanie to Max and asks him to wake up, but Max yells at her to stop. Bo tries to stop them from fighting but when they refuse to listen, Bo says he'll take over the bar! Stephanie tells Bo she'll drop by the police department for a sworn statement. She tells Max she refuses to cry about this and storms off. Max is confused as to why she'd even cry, and Bo tells him that she's in love with an idiot and asks him to apologize to Stephanie. Max lashes out at Bo, but Bo has to take a call, and leaves momentarily. Stephanie returns and Max apologizes to Stephanie, who in turn apologizes. She tells him he doesn't see what Melanie's like and worries she'll get away with killing Trent, but though Max knows she could be right, Melanie's so scared and alone. Later, they all sit at a table and Stephanie starts up again, so Bo tries to stop them from rehashing the past. It's his job to judge whether or not Melanie did this… with facts!



Melanie tells Philip that he knows she didn't kill Trent, but he reminds her that she doesn’t even know if she killed Trent. Melanie says they've a connection and she starts unbuttoning his shirt as she tells him she can trust him. Philip leans in for a kiss. She calls him good at this and he say she's not a novice, either. The compliments come from Melanie as she turns on the seduction, and Philip asks her to make sure she knows what she's doing, right now so she doesn't regret it in the morning. Melanie asks him to stop talking and they start kissing. Things lead to the bed and Philip finally clues in. "I don't know how good I feel about sleeping with a killer," he says, and gets up and buttons up his shirt. Philip knows that she was just trying to seduce him to keep him quiet. Through gritted teeth, he says he wanted to see how she'd play this out. He asks her to clean up. They're going out to face the music!



Melanie and Philip arrive downstairs and Stephanie says, "What a surprise Max, she wasn't alone, after all!" Philip finds Bo and tells him that he knew Melanie had Trent's wallet, after his death. He didn't realize it mattered to the police, and Bo lashes out that this worries him. Philip talked things over with Melanie first and says she tried to get him to keep quiet about it. When Melanie starts talking, and confessing to what happened that she recalls, in the cemetery, Max asks her to stop until she gets a lawyer. Bo tells her to shut up and Melanie says she's leaving town. Max tells her she can't go, but she walks out of the pub, and Bo says to Max, "So, Stephanie was right. Melanie confessed!" Max still stands up for Melanie and how she was brought up.



Upstairs, Melanie starts to pack and calls somebody about getting out of town. She receives an anonymous note under her door that says they saw what she did at the cemetery.



Kate arrives at the hospital to Daniel, who wonders why she's there. She tells him she's returning his swim shorts and he asks her to stop waving them around, or he'll have explaining to do! She leans into him as he brings her behind a curtain and tries to kiss him but Daniel says they can't do this. Kate asks if he wants to break it off again, but Daniel asks her to stop. He's feeling crazed about waiting for the results as well. Kate hasn't coughed in over 24 hours and has her appetite back, she says. Daniel's happy to hear that, and she tells him that whether or not she's dying, she wants him, and wants to make love to him. She doesn't want her life under a microscope. They start kissing.

Chelsea asks a nurse if she has seen Dr. Jonas anywhere. The nurse says he was just here a moment ago and is probably nearby. Daniel and Kate stop kissing when Daniel's pager goes off and Chelsea walks in on them. Kate says she should knock before she barges in on a patient. Kate says she's fine, and has something to drop off to Daniel, when Chelsea asks, and Chelsea has documents for him to look over. Daniel has to go up to ICU and asks Chelsea to wait with Kate, for him to return. Chelsea asks what Kate was returning to Daniel. Kate changes the subject and Chelsea admits she was going to call her about their talk in the dressing room at the shop. She spoke with Lexi and says what happened between her and Daniel reminded her of what she went through with Nick and Billie. Chelsea loves Kate so much and got emotional. Chelsea says she knows things with Kate and Daniel are over and she's ready to forgive her and forget. Kate thanks Chelsea and they hug, but she sees Daniels shorts and asks if this is what she's returning to him. She starts to cry and Kate apologizes. Chelsea is hurt and disrespects Kate, who tells her that Daniel and Chelsea are over. It was her decision. She treated it as an adult decision and she's not ashamed of what she's doing. "At your age, I think you should be past temper tantrums," she says. Daniel returns, but stays away, while Chelsea tells Kate that she's selfish and wants her out of her life, forever. Kate asks her to be careful for what she wishes for. Daniel walks in and Kate asks him to read the results. Kate has lung cancer. Chelsea starts to sob.



Roman tells Sami that she's got to go into a witness protection program - without the kids. Sami worries, and Roman tells her facts. The kids will be in harm's way. Lucas reminds her they'll be at risk if they're around her, and Marlena promises the kids will be fine. Sami yells, wondering why Chloe's there. Roman says Sami's right. She doesn't need an audience around during this. EJ claps as Sami rants that her children need her. "Well done, Samantha, when you are right, you're right!" EJ thinks she'll be safe in Salem, but Roman reminds him that she was just shot at. EJ wants her to move into the mansion. Marlena gasps but EJ dismisses her. Marlena asks if she'll stay in the living room or the dungeon. Sami's eyes are still burning from what she witnessed on the sofa, she complains. Chloe thinks that Sami could use a change of pace, considering the way her life's going and Roman tells Chloe to shut up. Roman's got a friend at the FBI and gives him a call as Lucas tries to tell Sami to do the right thing and keep her kids safe. Sami feels her growing abdomen and whispers, "You're right." Everyone's confused as Sami says she's going into the program. EJ is angry, but Sami gets up to pack. EJ is still unconvinced but Sami asks him not to second guess her, and goes off to pack. EJ thinks there is something else going on and asks Lucas, but Lucas plays it cool. Later, they are alone as Sami packs and Lucas admits he hates to keep her secret. Sami cries about the situation, but Lucas comforts her. Roman will catch the shooter. Sami thinks she somehow deserves this for all her past mistakes but Lucas denies this. He also tells her he'll keep her pregnancy a secret. He wonders what she'll do for a doctor. She worries about that, about losing EJ, and leaving Johnny with Stefano and Nicole. Marlena goes to Sami to ask if she has anything to say to her before she goes. Sami shakes her head. EJ and Lucas take the babies to Sami, and Marlena tells her not to cry, or she'll upset them. Sami says goodbye to the children. Roman takes Sami aside and tells her she can't take a photo album with her because it'll tie her to her life there. Sami starts to cry, and isn't sure she can do this. Marlena has to leave, so says goodbye. When Allie feels Sami's abdomen, she says, "Baby." Sami looks caught, and EJ asks, "Baby?"



Next on Days Of Our Lives:

Chelsea says, "I mean I knew she was sick but we were just too preoccupied with our own little issues. I wonder if it's too late?"

Nick asks, "Are you going somewhere?" Melanie says, "Yeah. I'm getting the hell out of Salem!"

Nicole holds her belly and tells Pookie, "If EJ is holding that little twit's hand while I'm standing here growing stretch marks; I swear I'm going to shoot them both!"

Sami can't choose between Lucas and EJ because she loves them both. And she is jealous of Nicole and Chloe. She is right when she says she can't think straight. So much has happened to her with Stefano's threats, EJ's lies and Lucas' anger, she doesn't know what to do. It's too bad she couldn't spend more time with new John because he was helping her. She finally realized that he cared about her and she cared about him. It's too late for Marlena and Roman to help her because the situation she is in is so complicated. Maybe she will be able to talk to the FBI agent about her life and figure out what she wants while she is under witness protection.

I would like to see Sami and Lucas together, but she has to pick the one she loves or it will not last. Sami deserves some peace and happiness after all these years of turmoil.

I agree. I think this new Rafe guy will help Sami figure things out. EJ needs somebody to help him figure things out too.

I like Sami and EJ together, but I believe Sami would be better off with Lucas. He is the one who is always there for her. She should never have divorced him to marry EJ, no matter what. That was her biggest mistake.

Lucas should never have pushed Sami away and refused to see her when she needed to so badly. That was his biggest mistake.

They were happy together, and I think she could still be very happy with him. Especially when it comes out that Lucas did not shoot EJ, but took the blame in order to protect Will!

I think EJ will fall in love with Nicole while Sami is gone. Lucas will end up alone, and realize that he still loves Sami. He will wait for her return and hope it's not too late.

bghwme ITA with everything you said. EJ is a better person with Nicole, as he doesn't try to manipulate her to fall in love with him, she IS in love with him. She is also strong enough to stand up to Stefano, but also smart enough to stay on his good side. Afterall, Stefano has not done anything to her family, so she has no reason to hate him.

After all the Stefano has done to Sami and her family, I don't blame her for not wanting him in her children's life. Even though kate hates Sami, she has never done anything remotely close to what Stefano has done. Lucas does love Sami and always will. He has stood up with Sami against his mother time and time again, and tries to do the right thing.

Give me some LUMI lovin!!!

Great comments so far I completely agree!! I love how Lucas is her voice of reason...what's with Ej getting all mad? Why would he think for one second that Sami would be safe at the mansion? That is where the mayor was shot! Selfish Ej...I swear all he cares about is himself!

I can't wait to see Roman tell Chloe to shut up! Haha!!

So I guess everything with Kate is out on the table..she wants Daniel and she has cancer. What will Chelsea do?

The way Max is so sure that his sister did not kill Trent makes me think that he knows a lot more about what went down that night than what he is telling. Or, he know more about Melanie than what he is telling...

The people of Salem are so judgmental. Stephanie included. Maybe Max is just trying to get Stephanie to look below the surface before jumping to conclusions about people.

Max and Stephanie will have a discussion about things. Perhaps Stephanie will talk Melanie into being hipnotized by Marlena to help her remember what happened that night...

Maybe Stephanie will apologize to Melanie and vice versa and really get to know each other?

I don't see how EJ is a better person w/Nicole. His heart is clearly with Sami, that is why he lied to Nicole about going to the office. He wanted to check on Sami & also wanted to avoid Nicole's moaning, so he lied. EJ will always hope for a future with Sami. When it appears that isn't possible, he leans more toward Nicole, but even after learning Nicole was pregnant, EJ went to the cabin to see Sami & was clearly torn up (they both were) when he left.

Nicole is about to go off the deep end. *** Spoilers *** say when she is jailed for Trent's murder, she thinks EJ set her up. Her insecurity over Sami & her knowledge that her baby (which I believe she will lose) is going to make her crazy & she's going to do something crazy to try & hold onto EJ. John & even Lucas pointed out the bond Sami & EJ have to Nicole yesterday. She is worried, & rightfully so. Consider that she & EJ have never even been on a date, & the one time they had sex, he called her Samantha & she foolishly let him talk his way out of that one.

"Marlena asks if she'll stay in the living room or the dungeon." I love this line from Marlena! About time someone pointed out to EJ that his behaviour has been unacceptable lately. Love the way both parents are sticking up for Sami.

EJ must be the one who has Trent's will and the note. Why else would Nicole think EJ set her up?

Poor Chelsea! She is much too young to figure out what is going on in the grown up world of Kate and Daniel. Neither of them meant to hurt her, but they did. If Daniel really loved Chelsea he would not have let himself be so easily seduced by Kate. And, just when Chelsea was ready to forgive and forget, she did it again!

She gets upset and tells Kate she wants her out of her life forever, and then finds out that Kate is dying.

I don't think Chelsea should run around feeling guilty. She did not give Kate cancer. I think Chelsea still loves her grandmother, but there will be no hope for a relationship with Daniel after this. I am glad. He is a jerk. I hope he leaves town. That would be the honorable thing to do here.

What is with Kate going after Daniel the way she is. I know Chelsea told him to move on but c'mon Daniel loves Chelsea and Chelsea loves Daniel. The writers need to fix this, and soon, even if Daniel ends up with someone else but not Kate.

It takes a young child to point out that Sami is pregnant and EJ says Baby? He didn't realize yesterday when he saved her from being shot???

Wondering if Sami is going to hook up with the new guy Rafe?

bghwme-I don't see EJ hooking up with Nicole while Sami is gone. I think he will find a way through his connections to see Sami and that is where the truth about the pregnancy will come out.

Posted by Bwarner24 at Friday, October 24 2008 07:04 AM

I agree, bghwme, about Chelsea and Daniel! I can't stand him anymore! If he really loved Chels as much as he claims, why in the he** did he do the nasty with Kate again? He's all in it for the sex, that's why! Like I've said before, "Beware all ladies of Salem----SEX ADDICT on the loose!" Nobody's safe!

Posted by alwaysEJ at Friday, October 24 2008 07:22 AM

*** Spoilers ***

Rafe learns Sami is pregnant. I think there is some animosity between them at first, but I agree that he will serve as a friend/someone she can talk to (since she has nothing else to do in that safe house anyway) & since he knows about her pregnancy, she will hopefully be honest with him about everything & he can help her get her head on straight. I don't see much romance between them since she is pregnant & is getting bigger by the day.

I agree with angel 15 - I don't see EJ & Nicole growing much closer while Sami is in hiding. For one, Nicole will be in jail part of the time & also, like John said yesterday, if EJ knows Sami is in danger, he's not going to sit around & do nothing; he'll find a way to make sure she is safe & perhaps go see her...which will only drive Nicole further & further over the edge.
