Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps
Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Belle and EJ talked about being on opposite sides in court. They were on opposite side, but they wanted Johnny to go free. Belle wanted that, but she planned to do it by the book. She wished that the judge didn’t put her back on the case. Belle wished the ADA was on the case because it would look like favoritism if he was let go. EJ wasn’t worried about it because people knew that she had integrity. He felt like there was enough evidence for reasonable doubt and for the charges to be dropped against Johnny. Belle was shocked that he wanted the charges dropped. She felt like it would look bad if Johnny’s not exonerated in court. Belle felt like he seduced and manipulated her to get her to drop the charges against Johnny. She stormed out of his room. Kristen went to see Brady to let him know that there was a new suspect in EJ’s shooting. She felt like it was good for Rachel. Kristen told him that Chanel was the suspect. Kristen was glad because Rachel wouldn’t have to testify after all. Brady felt that it was a no-win situation for Johnny. Johnny did it or his wife did it. Kristen thought Chanel deserved what was coming to her since she was going to let Johnny take the blame for her crime. Brady thought Kristen would do the same thing Chanel did if she could protect someone she loved. Kristen agreed, but she wouldn’t let the man she loved go to prison for her crime. She was thankful that Rachel wouldn’t have to be involved in the case since EJ wanted her to convince Rachel to lie on the stand. Tate checked his phone as he waited for Holly. He tried to call Holly, but her phone went to voicemail. Brady wanted to go after EJ, but Kristen stopped him. She warned him that EJ was desperate and dangerous. Brady agreed to drop it for now. Tate arrived at the townhouse, and Brady was surprised to see him. Kristen slipped out of the townhouse while Brady and Tate were talking. Tate told Brady that Holly never showed up at the lake. He hadn’t heard from her at all. Tate thought Holly might have changed her mind about them being together. Brady tried to make Tate feel better. Johnny let Philip know that he couldn’t make it to work. Chanel couldn’t believe that he was being so calm about their worlds falling apart. People were going to think one of them shot EJ. Johnny wasn’t worried about it since they were innocent. They had to figure out who shot his father. He didn’t trust the police. Johnny felt like they weren’t interested in finding other suspects. He let Chanel know that he believed in her. Johnny knew she would never allow him to go to prison for her crime. They went through the list of suspects. Ava, Gabi, and Kristen were the people they suspected. Johnny wanted to write their names down. While he looked for something to take notes, he noticed that she used Sweet Bits as collateral for his bond. He didn’t like how she did that because she could lose her business. Chanel wanted him to know that she supported him 100 percent. He wished he didn’t keep things from her like wanting to kill his father.
Arianna and Holly were held in a room at gunpoint. A henchman let them know that once a friend gave them the money, they would be let go. If he didn’t pay the money, things would get complicated for them. They wouldn’t die if he didn’t pay. The thugs would ransom them to their families. After the guy left, Arianna and Holly began to panic. They tried to get the door open, but it wouldn’t open. Holly apologized to Arianna for the mess they were in. She helped the guy the thug was talking about. Arianna hooked up with someone like that. After they talked, they realized they were talking about Doug. Holly told her how she knew Doug, but she didn’t sleep with him. She was glad since she’s back with Tate. Arianna wasn’t happy that Doug got them in the mess they’re in now. She felt like a fool for getting involved with him. Arianna thought that Doug was with her because he couldn’t have Holly. They knew Doug didn’t have money but hopefully he could fix things. The girls tried to figure another way out of the room. Holly remembered dropping her ring in the alley. She thought someone would notice and help them. Doug saw the thug at the pub. He grabbed him and demanded that he let the girls go. The guy would do it once Doug gave him the money. Doug said he didn’t have the money. The guy was giving him one more day to get the money. Doug would be responsible for anything happening to them. He didn’t want the cops to be involved. Doug was tempted to take the money out of the register at the pub. He was about to grab it when Tate arrived. Tate wanted to know what happened to Holly. Doug pretended not to know anything about it. He said he hadn’t heard from her.
