Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps
Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Johnny was on the set and thought about Joy giving him back his wedding ring. Alex approached him and wondered if he was ready for him to sleep with his wife. Johnny knew he was kidding, but he wished Alex realized it was a trigger for him after everything that happened. Alex informed him that things weren’t any better for him and Stephanie. Hopefully a war won’t happen while they’re working together. Johnny promised to be professional and apologized for messing things up with him and Stephanie. Chanel showed up and Johnny apologized for how he treated his wife. EJ brought Cat to the interrogation room and let Chad know that he dropped the charges against her. He was appalled by the things Cat did to Chad and Abby’s family. EJ uncuffed her and left Chad and Abby alone. Chad told her why she was free. He wanted to see her rot in prison for life, but he couldn’t because Clyde escaped. Chad informed her that Clyde wanted her out if he was going to find out what happened to Abby’s body. Cat was surprised to find out that Chad hated her like that. A part of Chad wanted to hand her over to Clyde, but he couldn’t sign her death warrant. Julie was about to make soup for Doug when JJ arrived at the Horton house. She was excited to see him again. They talked about what happened in Paris. Julie was confident that Cat would remain in jail for a long time.
Javi was grateful that Gabi gave him a job, but he didn’t want to be an errand boy. She gave him instructions while he received a text from Leo. Gabi gave him divorce papers to take to the courthouse. It didn’t bother her on outside, but she was brokenhearted about her marriage ending. EJ arrived after Javi left. Joy found Leo and called him the man who destroyed her marriage. He didn’t know what she meant by that. He noticed Javi’s text and winked at him. Leo asked her about her parents. She told him that she was Craig and Nancy’s daughter. Leo apologized for what he did. It wasn’t his intention to be a homewrecker. Joy couldn’t judge because she was a homewrecker too. Chanel confessed to Alex that she was having trouble with their love scene, but she was determined to get through it. She knew the men would get through it too. They got to work on their scenes. Johnny flashed back to passionately kissing Joy. Julie told JJ that Doug wasn’t doing well because of what happened with Abby. She said that he is dealing with a bad cold. He would be fine in no time. They couldn’t believe that Doug was 98. She felt that it was a blessing to still have him in her life. It was a segue to JJ’s personal life. JJ admitted that he wasn’t seeing anyone. Julie believed that he would find someone soon. EJ and Gabi argued over who was responsible for why they slept together. He reminded her that she came on to him. She believed he knew she wasn’t in her right frame of mind. EJ didn’t know when she was ever in her right frame of mind. She didn’t want him to talk any more. Gabi thought he should have stopped her when she came on to him. EJ enjoyed making Stefan pay by sleeping with his wife. Growing tired of the things he said, she slapped him knocking off his feet. Leo begged Joy to tell him about the person she slept with. Javi arrived and Joy went to the set. Leo admitted to him that he slept with Joy’s father. Chad let Cat know that he was using her as bait. He promised to protect her but there weren’t any guarantees. She agreed to do whatever he wanted. Cat owed him, and she thought it could lead to her finding her mother. She wondered if her brother could get out of jail. Chad reminded her that he tried to shoot him. She understood and wondered if he would be able to work with her. If he could find his wife, he would put up with working with her. Joy found Johnny on the set alone. He regretted what they did and wanted to tell Chanel what he did. Chad brought Cat to the Horton House much to Julie’s surprise. Gabi was about to slap EJ again, but he grabbed her arm. JJ walked up to them and demanded that he let go of her.
