Now!<\/p>\n<p>JJ?<\/p>\n<p>[dramatic music]<\/p>\n<p>And then when I said yes, everyone in the hospital started clapping. Yeah, it was like something from out of a movie. No, no, no. Don&#8217;t you start crying. I just did my makeup.<\/p>\n<p>[chuckles] Right. OK, well, I bet&#8211; I better let you go then. OK. I miss you, and I love you, Sis. Tell Mom I said hi too.<\/p>\n<p>[phone beeps]<\/p>\n<p>Was that Talia?<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I was giving her all the details on your beautiful proposal. And I sent her a picture of the ring, and she loved it, as do I.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I&#8217;m glad. Although I can&#8217;t actually take credit for it because I didn&#8217;t&#8211; I didn&#8217;t really pick it out.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, but the fact that it&#8217;s a family heirloom, that makes it even more special.<\/p>\n<p>[tender music]<\/p>\n<p>Whoa. What&#8217;s this? Just a little something I got you. You know, my handsome fianc\u00e9. I mean, I didn&#8217;t pick it, but it&#8217;s just as special.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, yeah?<\/p>\n<p>Well, Paulina, what can I get for you today?<\/p>\n<p>Oh, well, Rafe and Jada, they&#8217;re joining me for lunch, so I&#8217;ll just wait till they get here to order, but in the meantime, oh, let&#8217;s start with a basket of mozzarella sticks. I&#8217;m treating myself since I just got a clean bill of health from my doctor.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, my God, that&#8217;s great news.<\/p>\n<p>Ooh, yes, it is. And I am beyond relieved, as you can imagine, you know, given all the medical issues that I&#8217;ve been dealing with not so long ago. But they checked everything, from my heart to my brain, and it looks like I&#8217;ll be sticking around for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I am very happy to hear that.<\/p>\n<p>[laughs] Whew. Oh.<\/p>\n<p>[laughs] Well, if it isn&#8217;t my beautiful daughter, Chanel. Come give&#8211; give your Mama a hug.<\/p>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Oh, did I tell you I met Joy? She seems pretty cool.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Yeah, Joy is super nice. I really like her.<\/p>\n<p>I think I kind of freaked her out a little bit though.<\/p>\n<p>What? What happened?<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know. I&#8211; I said something like her being a thorn in your side, and her reaction was like I meant it in real life. Obviously, I was talking about her character, your character on the show.<\/p>\n<p>Right, on the show.<\/p>\n<p>Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder why she thought you meant in real life.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know. Maybe she thought you might mix up real life with make-believe, kind of like your man Johnny did.<\/p>\n<p>Ooh. Yeah, that&#8217;s probably it. And considering that I am not inclined to do so, she can go after my man all she wants.<\/p>\n<p>On the show.<\/p>\n<p>Right. On the show.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Hey, Johnny. I just met Alex. I heard you just directed the first big love scene between him and Chanel. Or Faith and Arrow, that is.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>It went OK?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Yeah, it went fine.<\/p>\n<p>Then what&#8217;s wrong? You seem upset.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Yeah. Yeah, I&#8211; I am upset. All right, not&#8211; not about what Alex and Chanel did in that scene. I&#8217;m upset about what you and I did in real life. Look, Joy, I&#8217;ve got to tell my wife the truth.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8211; you can&#8217;t be serious. That is the dumbest thing that you could do.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[soft orchestration] <i><span><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">announcer: Like sands<\/span><\/span><\/i> <i><span><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">through the hourglass,<\/span><\/span><\/i> <i><span><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">so are<\/span><\/span><\/i> <i><span><span style=\"font-family: Arial;\">the &#8220;Days of Our Lives.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Johnny, what are you thinking? Chanel has given you another chance. She doesn&#8217;t know about us. Why would you risk blowing it up again?<\/p>\n<p>Because&#8211; because&#8211; because the guilt is eating away at me, OK? The whole time I was directing that love scene between Alex and Chanel, all I could think about was what happened in your hotel room, OK? I got to make things right. I&#8217;ve got to clear my conscience.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that&#8217;s all well and great for you, but what about me? Did you think about how maybe I would be affected? You would be putting a giant target on my back.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re not in a relationship, are you?<\/p>\n<p>I am, in fact. I&#8217;m in a relationship with my employer, &#8220;Body &amp; Soul.&#8221; I&#8217;m in a relationship with my new coworkers, my director, my castmates, including your wife, Johnny, who wouldn&#8217;t just be mad at you. She would hate me too. And who knows how far she would go to make us both pay?<\/p>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of your man, you and Johnny seem to be back on track, huh?<\/p>\n<p>Uh, we&#8217;re working on it.<\/p>\n<p>Good. Chanel, I&#8217;m sorry, again, if anything that happened had to do with me.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, no way, dude. That is all on him, OK? He was just being ridiculous. Thinking that I would cheat on him?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, well, I&#8217;m glad you gave him another chance. I, for one, totally understand the fragile male ego kryptonite known as jealousy. It&#8217;s what ruined my relationship with Stephanie. When we first got involved a while back, my jealousy of Chad is pretty much what blew things up between us.<\/p>\n<p>Paulina, I&#8211; I think maybe the doctors forgot to check your eyes. This is Stephanie, not your daughter, Chanel.<\/p>\n<p>Her eyes are fine, Roman. Here is that report you requested.<\/p>\n<p>OK, I&#8211; I don&#8217;t follow.<\/p>\n<p>I was making a joke. Didn&#8217;t mean to offend you, Stephanie.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s OK. Haven&#8217;t lost my sense of humor.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, well, I&#8217;m glad to hear that. And of course, I can tell the difference between you and Chanel. I mean, who couldn&#8217;t? Oh, wait. Oh, that&#8217;s right. My idiot son-in-law.<\/p>\n<p>OK, now I follow. So I will quickly remind the mayor that, uh, the guy who is preparing her meal happens to be that idiot&#8217;s grandfather.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, right. Sorry.<\/p>\n<p>You know what? It&#8217;s OK. It&#8217;s OK. I heard about what happened, and I have to agree. Accusing Chanel of having an affair was not Johnny&#8217;s greatest moment.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, I don&#8217;t know what has gotten into that boy. He&#8217;s normally&#8211; uh, he&#8217;s a sweetie pie, but then all of a sudden, he&#8217;s acting a fool, just like his jackass father.<\/p>\n<p>JJ, what are you doing in Salem?<\/p>\n<p>Saving you from this creep, apparently. EJ, I said let her go.<\/p>\n<p>Back off, JJ. This is none of your damn business.<\/p>\n<p>You putting your hands on her made it my business, so I suggest you remove your hand from her wrist right now, or you&#8217;re gonna have to deal with me.<\/p>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>You son of a bitch.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So you haven&#8217;t changed much. Still the same pompous ass who mistreats women.<\/p>\n<p>Huh. If you&#8217;re referring to my past with your sister, there was no mistreatment. Abigail was a willing participant in our affair, just as Gabi was. Actually, they were both eager participants.<\/p>\n<p>Hey! You don&#8217;t talk about my sister like that. You don&#8217;t talk about her at all, you hear me?<\/p>\n<p>[exhales deeply] I&#8217;m sorry.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>What happened to your sister was a terrible tragedy, and I know that her imposter has caused you and her loved ones more pain, and I do apologize for bringing her into this.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, well, you damn well should. And to answer your question, Gabi, about why I&#8217;m back in Salem&#8211; well, the main reason is to make sure Cat Greene pays for denigrating my sister&#8217;s memory.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, dear. Then I&#8217;m afraid you made the trip for nothing.<\/p>\n<p>What does that mean?<\/p>\n<p>That means that the charges against Cat Greene have been dropped. She&#8217;s a free woman.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Why would Chanel blame you for what happened between us? You didn&#8217;t even know who she was the night you met me.<\/p>\n<p>Yes. But then I started working with her, and I pretended that I didn&#8217;t know you from Adam, when I got the job. Johnny, she will hate me for lying, which sucks because I really like her. And her stepfather is the producer, for God&#8217;s sake. If this gets out, I&#8217;m gone, written out, recast, killed off, whatever.<\/p>\n<p>Look, hold on. Chanel is not gonna get you fired, OK?<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know about that. And if she doesn&#8217;t, then Kate Brady will definitely want me gone. Publicist, Stephanie? I heard that she was almost let go for sleeping with one of her coworkers. She barely dodged that bullet, Johnny. I might not be so lucky.<\/p>\n<p>OK, but you and Stephanie had something going on again recently.<\/p>\n<p>Until Kate and Abe laid down the law&#8211; no fraternizing among employees.<\/p>\n<p>Which you don&#8217;t sound happy about.<\/p>\n<p>Hmm. It&#8217;s whatever.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, it&#8217;s whatever. Mm-hmm. Yeah, the last time you and I spoke about you and Stephanie, I remember asking you if you wanted to be more than just friends with benefits with her.<\/p>\n<p>I remember the conversation, yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Uh-huh. And I also remember you answering evasively, saying that you weren&#8217;t sure how she felt, and then I suggested that you ask her. Did you ever do that?<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t have to, Chanel. Because Stephanie made it clear many, many times that she wanted to remain friends.<\/p>\n<p>Mm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Although&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Although what?<\/p>\n<p>After our most, uh, recent indiscretion, she admitted that she was jealous when she thought I might be sleeping with a castmate.<\/p>\n<p>[soft dramatic music]<\/p>\n<p>OK then. I mean, you have your answer, right? I mean, obviously, if she&#8217;s feeling jealous about something like that, it&#8217;s because she has real feelings for you. Hello?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe.<\/p>\n<p>Uh-huh. And then judging from our previous conversation, and now this one, I think it&#8217;s safe to say that you feel something for her too. Am I right?<\/p>\n<p>[exhales]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Actually, Johnny&#8217;s mistake was partly my fault and Alex&#8217;s. Johnny never would have mistaken me for Chanel if Alex and I hadn&#8217;t acted inappropriately that day in the hospital set.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, oh, no, no, please. Please, I don&#8217;t hold you and Alex responsible in the slightest, and as for my little joke, consider it retired.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Uh, but you know what? Uh, while we&#8217;re on the subject, um, why don&#8217;t&#8211; why don&#8217;t you sit down and dish a bit? So since when did you and Mr. Ab-tastic start shaking the sheets again?<\/p>\n<p>You know what? I&#8217;m gonna start, uh, on those mozzarella sticks, OK?<\/p>\n<p>[chuckles]<\/p>\n<p>Ah. Guess he wasn&#8217;t interested, huh?<\/p>\n<p>Guess not. Uh, but since you obviously are, um, I will tell you that, uh, that incident at the hospital, um, it was actually the start of us, starting things back up again between me and Alex.<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music] But it&#8211; it ended as quickly as it started.<\/p>\n<p>Oh. Yeah, right. Yeah, I heard that, uh, my husband and Kate put the kibosh on workplace relationships. Ooh, ooh. And, you know, I completely understand. I&#8217;ve had&#8211; I&#8217;ve had to lay down that law from time to time myself as mayor. But I imagine it&#8217;s kind of hard on you, huh?<\/p>\n<p>No. No, it isn&#8217;t, actually. Um, Alex and I are&#8211; are better off as friends.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Ah, my commissioner badge. Yes.<\/p>\n<p>All yours again.<\/p>\n<p>Sure you OK with this? I know you probably got used to being in charge.<\/p>\n<p>What, are you worried that just because I got a little taste of it, that I&#8217;m not able to let it go?<\/p>\n<p>No. No. It&#8217;s just, uh, I know you enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I did. I did. But you know what? I&#8217;m very happy to let you be boss again. In the workplace, that is.<\/p>\n<p>Uh-huh.<\/p>\n<p>Because here, you answer to me. Now, come here.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, ma&#8217;am.<\/p>\n<p>[sensual music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>And bang, here you go.<\/p>\n<p>Mmm-mmm. Oh.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry. Are we late?<\/p>\n<p>Oh, no, no, no. Not at all. And since I got here so early, I took the liberty of ordering an appetizer, which you are welcome to share.<\/p>\n<p>Ooh, don&#8217;t mind if I do.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, wait. Hold up right there, missy. Is that what I think it is?<\/p>\n<p>It is.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, my goodness! Oh, congratulations, you two. Oh, what wonderful news. Oh.<\/p>\n<p>All right. Congratulations, partner.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>When did you pop the question?<\/p>\n<p>Ah, yesterday. Been celebrating ever since.<\/p>\n<p>All right. It doesn&#8217;t stop here, OK? Lunch is on the house. What will you have?<\/p>\n<p>Oh. Well, you know, I&#8217;ll have a burger. Usual fixings, please.<\/p>\n<p>Ooh, make that two. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, what the hell? Make it three.<\/p>\n<p>All right, coming right up.<\/p>\n<p>Great.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, wow. I&#8217;m so happy for you two. Oh, and I want to hear all the details, but maybe we should save that for after, uh, you know, when we get down to business.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, OK. Yeah, all right. We&#8217;ll jump right in then. Um, OK, yeah. So, just so you know, the doctors gave me the all-clear, and, uh&#8211; so as soon as you give me your permission, Mayor Price, I am ready to resume my commissioner duties immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Mm-hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Well, about that, you know, I&#8217;ve given that matter a lot of thought, and I&#8217;ve decided that&#8217;s not a good idea.<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Do I have feelings for Stephanie? Hmm. What I can tell you, I think she&#8217;s great. I do know that. She&#8217;s easy to be around. She&#8217;s smart. She&#8217;s funny. She&#8217;s beautiful. First woman I ever gave my heart to.<\/p>\n<p>[tender music] But that was a long time ago. A lot&#8217;s happened since then. So I don&#8217;t want either of us getting hurt again, especially not Stephanie. She&#8217;s just&#8211; she&#8217;s amazing. She&#8217;s the best person I know, in fact.<\/p>\n<p>[laughs] Oh, my God. Alex.<\/p>\n<p>What?<\/p>\n<p>I mean, it was a yes or no question, but you just gave me a whole improvised sonnet.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, my God. All right, is it&#8211; is it too late? Can I plead the fifth instead? Maybe a redo? Can I go again?<\/p>\n<p>No way, bro, no. It is all out there now. You know what? We should call Leo, and we should ask him to write that in for your character so Arrow can say that.<\/p>\n<p>Just stop, please, right now. Just please. Enough. Oy.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, guys.<\/p>\n<p>Uh&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>What you talking about?<\/p>\n<p>We, uh&#8211; we were just&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Uh&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>We just, uh, finished shooting, and we were just, uh, talking, and Alex was complimenting me on my amazing acting ability, which I felt was a little bit overboard.<\/p>\n<p>No. No.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, um, I need to go run lines with my other scene partner for next week, so I will see you two around.<\/p>\n<p>All right.<\/p>\n<p>All right.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s going on? What brings you to set?<\/p>\n<p>You, actually.<\/p>\n<p>Oh.<\/p>\n<p>I need a huge favor.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Johnny, you don&#8217;t understand. My mother already thinks that I make a mess of everything, and getting myself fired from the show before it even airs will just prove her right.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t want that to happen to you either.<\/p>\n<p>Then don&#8217;t say anything. Please. And, Johnny, you think you&#8217;re being so honorable, but what if this ruins things for you too? What if you tell Chanel about us, and she doesn&#8217;t forgive you? What if she ends your marriage over this?<\/p>\n<p>[tense music] You have got to keep your mouth shut, Johnny. Please. For both of our sakes.<\/p>\n<p>Hey. What&#8217;s going on in here?<\/p>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>What the hell is wrong with you, EJ? You can&#8217;t let that lying snake go free.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, I already did. Cat Greene was released from police custody right before I ran into you.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, my God.<\/p>\n<p>How could you let that happen?<\/p>\n<p>This is also none of your business.<\/p>\n<p>This is none of my business? That woman tried to pass herself off as my dead sister. She conspired with her brother to kill yours and steal your family&#8217;s money, and you&#8217;re just&#8211; you&#8217;re just gonna let her walk? That makes zero sense.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t like it, file a complaint with City Hall.<\/p>\n<p>How about I file a complaint right now?<\/p>\n<p>Back off. Oh!<\/p>\n<p>[screams]<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s enough!<\/p>\n<p>[grunts]<\/p>\n<p>I could have arrested for assault, you fool.<\/p>\n<p>He said the same thing to me earlier. There&#8217;s just one problem. It&#8217;s hard to abuse one&#8217;s power when there&#8217;s an eyewitness. I&#8217;d testify that you shoved him first. You initiated the fight.<\/p>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<p>[sniffs]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Neither of you are worth the trouble.<\/p>\n<p>[spits]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Damn it. I just&#8211; I don&#8217;t&#8211; I don&#8217;t get it. Why would he let Cat Greene go?<\/p>\n<p>No idea. Could it be because she&#8217;s possibly guilty? The DA gets a kick out of putting innocent people away.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve heard. I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m sorry, Gabi. I&#8211; I can&#8217;t&#8211; I can&#8217;t believe you went to prison for a crime you didn&#8217;t commit.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. It&#8217;s all thanks to that man. If he hadn&#8217;t railroaded me, I wouldn&#8217;t have lost a year of my life, and I&#8217;d still have my marriage.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Everything all right?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, yeah, your husband and I were just having a little disagreement about an upcoming scene.<\/p>\n<p>Oh? Oh, I see.<\/p>\n<p>But I have pled my case already, and it&#8217;s up to him now. So, director, what do you say? Have you come around to my side of thinking?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I see your point.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>And I will defer to you. For now.<\/p>\n<p>Great. Thank you. I think that&#8217;s best. For my character.<\/p>\n<p>[clears throat]<\/p>\n<p>OK, well, uh, now that that is settled, I came by to see if you wanted to run lines for our scenes next week. I know it&#8217;s gonna be your first time on camera, so I just want to make sure you&#8217;re comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>That would be great. You&#8217;re the best, Chanel.<\/p>\n<p>All right. Well, then, I guess I will see you at home.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, you will.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So what&#8217;s the favor?<\/p>\n<p>Well, when I first got this job, I pitched an idea for a photoshoot with this well-known magazine.<\/p>\n<p>OK.<\/p>\n<p>Didn&#8217;t think it was going to happen, but I just got the call that they&#8217;re willing to do it. The only catch is, it has to happen now. Like, right now.<\/p>\n<p>Right now? Right now? Why&#8211; why so last-minute?<\/p>\n<p>I guess they had a cancellation.<\/p>\n<p>Oh.<\/p>\n<p>So would you mind coming back with me to the &#8220;Body &amp; Soul&#8221; offices to take some photos? It could be really good publicity for the show and for you.<\/p>\n<p>Uh&#8211; yeah. I mean, do you want me to go, like, grab Chanel or track down Joy, or&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Actually, this one is boys only.<\/p>\n<p>Why is it boys only?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s for &#8220;Playgal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oh, God.<\/p>\n<p>[inhales deeply] Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Price, I can assure you, any fears that you might have about my recovery, I am more than ready to get back to work. And as I said, all the doctors have given me their approval.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, Paulina, I&#8217;ve been to most of his appointments with him, and I can % vouch that he is fully recovered. Perfectly healthy.<\/p>\n<p>I think you both misunderstood. Now, I have no doubts about Rafe&#8217;s health or his abilities to perform the job.<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music]<\/p>\n<p>Then I don&#8217;t understand.<\/p>\n<p>Rafe, you are an excellent cop, and I am thrilled that you&#8217;re ready to rejoin the force, but since the PD is short staffed, I need you back at the station as a detective, and I want Jada to stay on as commissioner.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Price, I agreed to stand in for Rafe as commissioner during his recovery. My intention was never to replace him permanently.<\/p>\n<p>Mm-hmm, I&#8217;m sure it wasn&#8217;t. And I know this might be awkward for you both, but, uh, I honestly believe that this is the right move, and as much as I do strongly appreciate seeing a Black woman in charge, this goes beyond that.<\/p>\n<p>But Mayor Price, I&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Jada, let me finish, please. Now, since you have taken over since last summer, ooh, you&#8217;ve been kicking butt and taking names. Crime is down double digits, and you&#8217;ve also, you know, overseen many high-profile cases, though, you know, including the murder of Li Shin and um, you know, the recent apprehension of Vivian Alamain. The record is impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Price, I am flattered. Really, I am. But I&#8217;m afraid I&#8217;m going to have to decline. I can&#8217;t take Rafe&#8217;s job.<\/p>\n<p>Uh, the job doesn&#8217;t belong to Rafe. It belongs to whomever I see fit to give it, and that person is you. So like I said now, Rafe, now this is not personal. You&#8217;re a great cop, but seeing as how everything&#8217;s been running smoothly in your absence, I see no reason to upend that. And, well, you know, I hope you understand.<\/p>\n<p>[phone beeps] Oh. Oh, wait. Oh, you know&#8211; oh, I got&#8211; I got to deal with a&#8211; uh-huh. I got to deal with a mayoral emergency.<\/p>\n<p>OK, no problem. I&#8217;ll box this up.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, no, no. I&#8217;ll just take mine to go, OK? Oh. Oh, gosh. Oh, you know what? There&#8217;s not even any time. Oh. I&#8217;ll have this, uh&#8211; you know, I&#8217;ll have my assistant bring your plate back as soon as I can. I promise. Hmm?<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music]<\/p>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<p>That woman is, uh, definitely unpredictable.<\/p>\n<p>Ain&#8217;t that the truth?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So how did it go with Roman? Uh, were you able to rent a room at the pub?<\/p>\n<p>Yep, yeah, I moved in last night after we all had dinner, actually. Which, by the way, that was so kind of you to let my mother and I crash your evening with Johnny. I just hope she didn&#8217;t talk too much. She has a way of taking over.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, no, no, no. She did not talk too much, OK? Ms. Nancy is a lot of fun. We really enjoyed her company. And speaking of moms, Johnny and I promised yours that we would look after you. So I was thinking, why don&#8217;t you come over for dinner tonight? That way, we can all get to know each other even better.<\/p>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<p>What happened to you?<\/p>\n<p>[sighs] Not worth talking about. Hey, I&#8211; I heard about your disastrous birthday party. I&#8217;m&#8211; I&#8217;m sorry.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, well, I&#8217;m the one who&#8217;s sorry. I really screwed up, Dad. I&#8211; I don&#8217;t know. I&#8217;m normally not so insecure or jealous, you know? But I just&#8211; I&#8211; I&#8211; I don&#8217;t know what came over me.<\/p>\n<p>It happens to the best of us, Son. DiMera men are passionate, to say the least. But I&#8217;m sure you and Chanel will work things out. After all, what you did wasn&#8217;t so egregious. You merely jumped to the wrong conclusion and said a few unkind words.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Well, there&#8217;s&#8211; there&#8217;s actually more to it than that.<\/p>\n<p>What more? What do you mean?<\/p>\n<p>Chanel doesn&#8217;t know it, but, uh, there was something I did that actually was egregious and really, really stupid.<\/p>\n<p>[dramatic music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Here, sit. Give me your hand.<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music] Are you OK?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, I&#8217;ll live. So the fight with EJ? Was that about how he sent you to prison when you were innocent?<\/p>\n<p>No. It was because I confronted him about the role he played in destroying my marriage.<\/p>\n<p>You and Stefan are calling it quits?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>My divorce papers are being filed as we speak.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sorry about that.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks. And JJ, it was so good of you to stand up for me before.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So does that mean all is forgiven between us?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Gabi, um&#8230; what you did to Julie, tampering with her pacemaker, putting her very life in jeopardy, I&#8211; look, I&#8211; I know that a lot of time has gone by since that happened.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s not easy to forgive. I know. Or even possible to forgive. I shouldn&#8217;t have asked that question.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s OK. Um, I don&#8217;t blame you for asking. But I&#8217;d be lying if I&#8211; if I said that I still wasn&#8217;t angry about that&#8211; that that memory still isn&#8217;t painful for me.<\/p>\n<p>Why wouldn&#8217;t you be?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>JJ, I&#8217;m still really angry with myself that I sank so low. Horrified, actually.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>But JJ, that&#8217;s not who I am anymore. I know words are cheap, but I really have been working on myself. I want to be a better person. I&#8217;m determined to be.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m glad to hear that.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So uh, does that mean that you&#8217;ll give me a chance to prove to you that I&#8217;ve changed?<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Yeah, I will. I&#8211; I believe that you&#8217;re sincere in wanting to be a better person.<\/p>\n<p>I am. %.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Thanks again for coming to my rescue earlier.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Well, you rescued me once, too, remember? I owed you one.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Talking about Christmas Eve all those years ago?<\/p>\n<p>I am. That was the darkest moment of my life, and you were there for me.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I was just being a friend.<\/p>\n<p>It was more than that. You saved my life. So in spite of it all, I&#8217;m very grateful for you. Always will be.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Yes, most of our hunks have agreed to the shoot. Right, yep, and they will be ready by the time your photographer gets here. No, no. My God, they&#8217;re all very excited.<\/p>\n<p>Steph, I don&#8217;t think I can do this.<\/p>\n<p>I have to go. I will see you soon.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, what&#8211; what do you mean? What do you mean? What&#8217;s wrong?<\/p>\n<p>What do you mean, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong?&#8221; I look ridiculous.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, you don&#8217;t. You don&#8217;t. It&#8211; it&#8211; it looks fine. What are you, like, a&#8211; a sexy Peter Pan?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m Robin Hood. I make the ladies quiver, you know? You get it? My character&#8217;s name is Arrow.<\/p>\n<p>Ooh, clever.<\/p>\n<p>Uh-huh, clever. Seriously, though, is this too much?<\/p>\n<p>Alex Kiriakis, are you self-conscious about your body?<\/p>\n<p>No. No, of course not. I just&#8211; I don&#8217;t want to look stupid.<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t look stupid. You look hot. Sexy as hell.<\/p>\n<p>Oh. OK, then, all right. Well, if only we can get this strap to stop digging in my chest.<\/p>\n<p>Ah, maybe I&#8211; maybe I can loosen it.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>Where&#8217;s the&#8211; oh.<\/p>\n<p>[sensual music]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Is&#8211; is that better?<\/p>\n<p>Mm. Yeah.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[tender music]<\/p>\n<p>[phone beeps]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Oh, photographer&#8217;s here. I need to go let him in.<\/p>\n<p>OK. Uh, I guess there&#8217;s no turning back now.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry. You look great.<\/p>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<p>Really, really, really, really. And thank you again for doing this.<\/p>\n<p>Anything for you, Steph.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[sighs]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[relaxed music]<\/p>\n<p>I hope your hand doesn&#8217;t hurt too much.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah. I&#8217;ll be fine. Thank you.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Right, I better get going. I need to get to the bottom of this Cat Greene fiasco, or try. I&#8217;m sure Chad has a lot to say about it.<\/p>\n<p>Well, keep me posted, OK?<\/p>\n<p>I will.<\/p>\n<p>It was really good to see you again, JJ.<\/p>\n<p>You too, Gabi.<\/p>\n<p>[soft dramatic music]<\/p>\n<p>Rafe, this isn&#8217;t what I wanted.<\/p>\n<p>I know. I know. But it&#8217;s clearly what Paulina wants, and what Paulina says goes.<\/p>\n<p>[chuckles] Guess I should consider myself lucky she still wants me as a detective.<\/p>\n<p>[relaxed music]<\/p>\n<p>I&#8211; I don&#8217;t know what to say.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I do. Congratulations.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Guess this belongs to you now.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[tense music]<\/p>\n<p>That is such a kind offer, but I&#8217;m just worried that Johnny might be a little annoyed with me because of earlier.<\/p>\n<p>No, he&#8217;ll get&#8211; he will get over it, OK? And besides, he&#8217;s kind of in the doghouse right now, and he&#8217;s trying to get back in my good graces, so that basically means he has to do whatever I want, and what I want is for you to come over to dinner tonight, and I will not take no for an answer, so&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>OK, I&#8217;m in.<\/p>\n<p>All right. Yay.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>John Roman, what did you do that was so stupid and egregious?<\/p>\n<p>OK, look, if I tell you, you cannot say a word to anyone.<\/p>\n<p>Of course not.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Dad, I made a huge mistake.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I thought Chanel was cheating on me, so in return, I, uh&#8211; I cheated on her.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2021\/07\/19\/days-of-our-lives-transcripts\/\">Back to the Days Transcripts Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2021\/12\/23\/daytime-soap-transcripts\/\">Back to the Main Daytime Transcripts Page<\/a><\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6108\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/daysanim.gif\" alt=\"Days of Our Lives cast animated GIF\" width=\"137\" height=\"153\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Days of Our Lives Transcript &nbsp; Transcript provided by Suzanne THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!
