DANNY ROMALOTTI'S HISTORY
Danny Romalotti showed up in Genoa City at age 16, after running away from his family who were con-artists. This included his parents and his sister, Gina. He found a job waiting table at Jonas's Restaurant and befriended Paul Williams. Soon, Gina came to town wanting to reconcile and go straight and Danny got her a job at the restaurant, which she eventually took over!
Danny began giving concerts in Genoa City, often accompanied by his sister, or by his friends, Traci Abbott, Lauren Fenmore, and Amy Lewis. He and Lauren even toured together at one point!
When Traci, who was also the President of his Fan Club, became pregnant by her professor, Danny married her. This devastated his girlfriend, Paul's sister Patty Williams, and she left town. Danny's marriage to Traci was annulled when she miscarried.
Soon, Danny's father turned up in town, brought there by a devious Jill Abbott to con Katherine Chancellor. Rex Sterling, as Danny's father was known then, fell in love with Mrs. Chancellor, however, and reconciled with his kids. He was lost to them forever, though, when he was killed by a bullet from a thief's gun.
Danny, meanwhile, had fallen in love with Cricket Blair. Together they helped her friend Nina through her ill-fated relationship with David Kimble. Christine became a lawyer and they got married. Soon, the couple were dealing with her obsessive boss, Michael Baldwin, who set it up to look like Danny was cheating on his wife.
Danny and Christine survived Michael's machinations and Danny left to perform in "Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat". While away, Christine became close to Paul Williams, and Danny was drugged by a fan named Phyllis, who later claimed he was the father of her unborn child. Danny and Christine divorced and he married Phyllis in order to do right by their child. Soon, Danny became aware of how manipulative his wife was, and they got a divorce.
It wasn't long before the baby became sick. Phyllis's grave concern for their son caused Danny to see her in a new light and they remarried. Paul and Christine, however, urged him to seek a paternity test, and he discovered that Daniel was not truly his son. Since his name was on the birth certificate, Danny chose to fight for custody anyway - and he won. He made another play for Christine, but she chose Paul. During this time, Danny was attacked by a mugger and received major kidney damage. Michael Baldwin redeemed himself by donating a kidney. Danny then left for another tour, taking the young Daniel with him, and convincing Phyllis that the boy was better off not having contact with her.
In 2003, Danny returned to town to provide support to Gina who had just lost her restaurant to arson. It was revealed that Daniel was in a boarding school and that he had been there for quite awhile. Within months, Daniel came to see his father on Spring Break, and reconnected with mother Phyllis. He became very angry with Danny and demanded the truth. Feeling like a neglectful father, Danny left Daniel to get to know his mother, and went back on tour.
In March of 2008, Danny returned to perform at the launch party for Restless Style as a favor to Phyllis and also so he could extend an olive branch to Daniel. Things smoothed over between father and son. In May, Danny returned again, this time to offer talented Daniel an opportunity to work as a photographer on his tour. Daniel accepted the position and they left town together.

Thursday, November 20 2008: A Good Day For a Haunting!
Amber and Daniel arrive at the Chancellor home and are greeted by Esther. Danny and Gina come in and Gina begs Daniel to try and get Danny to stay for a few more days, but Danny says he can't. Billy comes through the door next and is warmly greeted by Cane. Just as Mitchell Sherman asks everyone to have a seat, Gloria and Jeffrey blow into the room. Jill looks outraged! Mitchell begins to read the will. She leaves Brock 1% of her estate in trust so that he may continue his good works, and he is also named Chairman of the Chancellor Foundation. Danny and Gina get one half of 1% of her estate in cash as her stepchildren, and she leaves Esther enough money to live the rest of her life in comfort as well as her entire 50% ownership of the Chancellor Estate! Esther nearly faints, and Nikki calls for water. Billy smirks at Jill, "Mom, you may be in the market for a new maid!" Jill takes Mitchell aside and says that Katherine must have been drunk when she made the changes, but Mitchell tells her it's ironclad and Katherine was certainly not impaired! He continues the reading of the will, telling Nikki, that as someone who Kay thought of as a daughter, she has been left Katherine's jewelry and her mother's ring - a family heirloom!
Still in the Chancellor living room, Mitchell details how Billy and Cane will receive one-quarter each of her estate. Amber and Daniel are given enough money to fund their respective ventures, and Amber also gets sole rights to Katherine's memoirs! Jill jumps out of her seat in protest, but Mitchell cuts her off, saying that Jill has been left the remainder of the estate, and all but 5% of her Jabot shares. He then turns to Gloria and tells her she has been left a priceless vase that was a gift from John, as well as the remaining 5% of her Jabot shares - in honor of John's memory! Jill turns to Cane in panic, and Jeff and Gloria beam! As they all rise from their seats, Daniel asks Amber if she's going to publish the memoirs, but she says she wonders if she should bring more upset to the family. Danny comes over and says goodbye. Brock wanders over and says he'd like to know more about the memoirs. They all share a laugh. Across the room, Jeff purrs at Gloria that she's never looked hotter than she does right now. Jill comes over and asks what she did to make Katherine give her the shares. Gloria says that Kay genuinely liked her! Billy takes Jill away, telling her that if he had inherited what she just did, he'd be dancing on the table right now! Jill goes after Amber before she can leave - she informs her that she won't have her capitalizing on Katherine's memoirs and if she tries to print it, she'll fight her every step of the way. Amber tells Daniel she's going to make it her life's mission to print them now! Nikki is next to leave, telling Jill that she hopes she doesn't mind Katherine giving her the jewelry. Jill rudely tells her that her life's such a mess, how could she mind. Esther kindly tells Nikki she can still come to the house to visit her. Jill goes back into the living room and notes to Cane that they're very vulnerable without that stock! It then dawns on Jill that she is no longer answering to Katherine and can do whatever she wants!
Tuesday, November 18 2008: I've Been Expecting You!
Jill thanks Gina for arranging the reception at the GCAC. Esther, Danny, Liz and Brock all discuss how much Katherine would have liked the service. Billy, Cane, Chloe, Amber and Daniel join in the conversation too. They joke about how wild she could be at times and share a laugh. Neil, Karen, and Lily arrive and pay their respects. Jill thanks them for coming. Billy asks Brock why he called her 'the Duchess', and Brock explains that that's the way he always saw her. Liz agrees that she had a regal bearing. Neil takes Lily aside and asks if she's okay - she's been very quiet. Lily notes that it's just a sad day. Neil is joined by Karen and they tell Lily that they're engaged. She congratulates them happily. Nearby, Brock introduces Cane to Nina. Cane tells her that he's the 'other' son - Jill will always consider Philip her son as well. He says he'd like to meet her son sometime, and she says he'd love that too. They agree to meet to chat later.
Danny tells Gina that her food is terrific and Amber and Daniel agree. Nina strolls over and says she used to live on it! She mentions how shocked she was that Gina's restaurant burned down. Amber asks where Nina lives, and she says she is a screenwriter in L.A. Danny and Amber toot Daniel's horn by sharing with Nina that he's a talented artist. They all discuss Philip being in the army, and Gina hugs Nina. Next to them, Jill stands with Liz, and they thank Jana and Kevin for stopping by. Liz then tells Jill that she's so glad that she told Jill the truth, and that she and Katherine had time together.
