Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps
Recap written by Michele and Cheryl
Dr. Russell went to the DiMera mansion to let EJ know that Kayla wouldn’t let him out of his contract. EJ wasn’t concerned because everything was going according to his plan. He knew Kayla would do that. EJ wasn’t concerned because he was about to buy the hospital. He was kicked out of DiMera Enterprises so his money wasn’t tied into the takeover which left him free to buy the hospital. EJ felt it was time to get the ball rolling. Dr. Russell thought the hospital would bleed EJ dry. EJ thought the drug would be successful. The patent for the drug would keep the hospital open for years. Dr. Russell received a summons from Kayla. Philip and Stephanie ran into each other, and she wasn’t happy about seeing him. She told him that he and Kate got exactly what they wanted. Stephanie wondered if everything he did was worth it. Philip hoped that Bo dying would be enough to end their feud. Stephanie ripped into him for a few more minutes. He apologized for everything. Stephanie wondered why he didn’t do things legally. He wasn’t trying to deny Xander his birthright. Philip wanted to redeem himself in his father’s eyes. He didn’t regret what he did, but he regretted hurting people. Stephanie was annoyed with him but thought they could be friends again. Alex gave Xander research on DiMera Pharmaceuticals. He said he found a breakthrough drug that would change everything for them. The drug would help with people with sepsis. DiMera didn’t have a strong enough drug like the one at the hospital. Xander was happy about the news. Belle spotted Shawn at the pub. She assured him that Bo wouldn’t give up without a fight. Shawn agreed with her that he wouldn’t give up. He refused to give up too. They talked about their fathers fighting for their lives instead of helping each other.
Kayla looked through Bo’s records. Steve showed up at Kayla’s office to support her. She said time was running out and that he had to steal the drug now if he’s going to do it. Steve realized she shouldn’t be talking about it like that. She didn’t care about that anymore. Kayla warned Steve to steal one dose of the drug. She thought Dr. Russell would think he lost it. It wasn’t as easy as it seemed. Dr. Russell comes and goes as much as he pleases so taking the drug would be hard. Sarah walked into Kayla’s office to apologize for what happened to Bo. Steve left the office. Sarah was willing to skip the conference so the hospital would save money. She wanted to spend time with her family. Her comment made a light bulb go off. Kayla planned to send Dr. Russell in Sarah’s place. After Sarah left, Dr. Russell showed up to Kayla’s office. She let him know that she was sending him to the conference. He didn’t want to go because he didn’t like people. EJ showed up before they could finalize anything. Dr. Russell finally agreed to go to Chicago. He left her office. EJ told Kayla that he wanted to help the hospital. He didn’t want to make a donation. His goal was to be the hospital’s savior. Steve and Shawn met at the pub to devise their plan to steal the drug. Shawn memorized the floor plans. Steve knew how much of the drug to take. They just had to know when to take it and how they wouldn’t jeopardize the drug’s approval. EJ told Kayla that he needed her approval to buy the hospital. Kayla laughed at him and said it was a hard pass. She knew there would be strings attached. Kayla knew the hospital would succeed without him. EJ planned to go over her head and talk to the board. Kayla planned to make sure they didn’t listen to him. EJ knew she would come crawling back to him.
